[17:24] <jack_spratt> crypt-00: hmm, I'm glad I asked!
[17:24] <Assil> mezquitale: there is no problem with the usb drive or port :p it's fully functionning and was tried on different ports
[17:24] <buttons840> nesuno, the radio
[17:24] <bitfox> nesun: are you italian?
[17:24] <Assil> mezquitale: actually i found a thread on a forum, but i still did not react there, i'm going to watch it, here's the link : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1344546
[17:25] <IdleOne> buttons840: how was that helpful?
[17:25] <crypt-00> jack_spratt, remember, backup your data.... i have had good luck not loosing any data to partition resizes, however it is known to happen
[17:25] <buttons840> nesuno, there are programs that will do that, i'm not familiar with any; sorry for my jokes :)
[17:25] <nesuno> buttons840: and can it capture a common audio output (a game's alsa output) on the server side?
[17:25] <mezquitale> Assil, you have a eee pc 901?
[17:25] <wilhart> W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net karmic Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY D725E4885719E347
[17:26] <jack_spratt> crypt-00: Yes I will - have you ever resized with ext4 before?
[17:26] <caja2_> is there a COM port emulator for ubuntu?
[17:26] <Assil> mezquitale: no ! i have a dot S packard bell, but the problem described there seems the same
[17:26] <Assil> mezquitale: in the second post ...
[17:26] <nesuno> bitfox: Only the name, I speak some italian.
[17:26] <bitfox> nesuno: exactly, what are your needs?
[17:26] <wilhart> anyone know how to remove that repo it's not listed in sources.list
[17:26] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: how do you mean?
[17:26] <caja2_> DopeGhoti,  I want to send /dev/ttySx stuff to a usb receipt printer
[17:26] <DopeGhoti> wilhart: look in /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[17:27] <nesuno> bitfox: A game in the server side making audio output. I want to her that output on another machine, which I can reach through LAN.
[17:27] <bitfox> nesuno: Some month ago i read a topic about how to configure a web radio server on linux...
[17:27] <buttons840> nesuno, mediatomb is one, it can stream to devices like ps3 (which i would be interested in) but i don't know if it would work for what you need
[17:27] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: if you know the path of the printer, can you cat to it?
[17:27] <mwoehlke> hello, anyone know how to list a: installed packages and b: the contents of a package on an apt-based system?
[17:27] <wilhart> DopeGhoti: gotit! tnx
[17:28] <mwoehlke> preferably without X
[17:28] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, path? URI?
[17:28] <ekixmadbox> i nedd help on mi compaq presario cq61 ubuntu 9.10
[17:28] <ekixmadbox> wireless disconnection automatic
[17:28] <bitfox> nesun: ok, unfortunately i can't help you, i'm sorry
[17:28] <ekixmadbox> not mather whats
[17:28] <DopeGhoti> mwoehlke: list installed packages: "dpkg-query -l | grep 'ii'"
[17:28] <trism_> mwoehlke: dpkg -L package_name lists the contents of a package
[17:28] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: what is the USB printer in terms of /dev/ location?
[17:28] <mwoehlke> DopeGhoti, trism_: yup, sounds like what I need, thanks!
[17:29] <carlo> qualcuno scrive italiano?
[17:29] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, that´s one thing, I dont know, how can i find out?
[17:29] <mwoehlke> sheesh, I was looking at apt :-) (kind-of knew that was wrong, but... well I am used to rpm)
[17:29] <Guest58709> qualcuno parla italiano?
[17:29] <trism> mwoehlke: apt-file will list contents too...of packages that aren't even installed which is nice
[17:29] <jj77> is there any way to share /home and my documents on the same partition/folders? thanks!
[17:30] <Guest58709> io no speak english
[17:30] <riverbird> jack_spratt, i recently resized ext4, but it was on a fairly new install and not much data to concern.  all went fine
[17:30] <jj77> on xp/ubuntu
[17:30] <mwoehlke> trism: ah, 'repoquery' equivalent... thanks
[17:30] <maco> !it | Guest58709
[17:30] <jack_spratt> riverbird: thanks, looks like I've got nothing to worry about then
[17:30] <nesuno> bitfox: I started to see icecast, and darkice, but they cast audio files. Darkcast can make input for icecast, which captures dsp or hw:0.0. But they are the line-ins.
[17:31] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, I tried echo test > ttyS* and got input/output error on each one
[17:31] <mezquitale> Assil, some hardware can be tricky to work with linux, that is why you always have to check what youre buying, I have no problem with a netbook dell 1100
[17:31] <caja2_> and there is no ttyUSB
[17:31] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: the USB printer wouldn't show as /dev/ttyS*
[17:32] <LzrdKing> what is a good dvd authoring program for ubuntu?
[17:32] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: unplug the printer, 'tail -f /var/log/dmesg', and plug it back in.  Any output?
[17:32] <Assil> mezquitale: Are u saying that i just let go, and put m$ window$ on my netbook ?
[17:32] <caja2_> DopeGhoti,  let me see
[17:33] <LzrdKing> DopeGhoti is pronounced "dopefish"
[17:33] <DopeGhoti> LzrdKing: Yes it is.
[17:33] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, no output
[17:34] <evil> .дшые
[17:34] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: okay, try this:  ls /dev/bus/usb/ with the printer plugged and unplugged
[17:34] <buttons840> any good svg editing tools for ubuntu?
[17:35] <mezquitale> Assil, I'm saying that it's going to be a little tricky, I suggest you start a thread of your own in newsgroups and put your machine's info since the issue is with your machine
[17:35] <llua> why can my windows pc ping my ubuntu pc, but ubuntu cant ping windows
[17:35] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, same output on both plugged/un
[17:35] <buttons840> llua, probably a firewall blocking pings on your windows
[17:35] <Assil> mezquitale: ok ! thanks for your help man :)
[17:35] <llua> buttons840, hmm. thx
[17:36] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: hmm.  Not having dealt with USB printers much, I'm not sure what else to try..  Can you try to set it up as a generic pritner in System → Administration → Printing?
[17:37] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, the thing is that the POS application (Openbravo) I'm using supports /dev/ttyS*
[17:37] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, that's why I initially asked for a COM emulator
[17:38] <qwyeth> I have here two Ubuntu 9.10 machines.  Each has a shared folder on the desktop, with the boxes checked for "share this folder" and "enable guest access."  When I try to browse to them from an XP machine, one of them can be accessed with an arbitrary username and a blank password, and the other cannot.
[17:38] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, the printer works with CUPS, but from the software (java) I don't get the desired output
[17:38] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: does it support /dev/lpr?
[17:38] <caja2_> tried javapos and nothing
[17:38] <mezquitale> Assil, also, try 9.04 and see if it works on your machine
[17:39] <caja2_> I guess yes
[17:39] <Assil> mezquitale: is there a netbook version ?
[17:39] <caja2_> DopeGhoti,  I guess yes
[17:39] <mezquitale> let me check
[17:39] <qwyeth> The ubuntu with the working samba share is 'VM', and the one that is not working is 'laptop.'  When VM tries to mount the share on Laptop, I see the share but get the error "Unable to mount location - Failed to mount Windows share."
[17:40] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: I think CUPS might be able to direct /dev/ttyS? into /dev/lpr, but I'm not certain.  I've not dealt much with serial printers.
[17:40] <mezquitale> Assil, http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/
[17:40] <DopeGhoti> qwyeth: are both systems running a Samba server?
[17:40] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, ok, thanks for the help
[17:40] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: good luck!
[17:40] <caja2_> I think I'll have to try some other stuff
[17:40] <caja2_> thanks!
[17:40] <qwyeth> DopeGhoti, both systems are running the flavor of Samba that is automatically installed when I clicked on "share this folder"
[17:41] <mezquitale> Assil, make sure you download the correct version
[17:41] <tomstoms> I'm trying to install the proprietary drivers for ATI legacy on Jaunty. However, I get this error message. Can someone point me in the right direction? http://pastebin.com/dfdaaf6f
[17:41] <Assil> mezquitale: i will !
[17:41] <qwyeth> and I selected Yes when asked to automatically configure permissions, on both machines
[17:41] <DopeGhoti> qwyeth: can 'laptop' access its own share?
[17:41] <Perro_violeta> buenas
[17:42] <JonathanEllis> I am about to install Ubuntu in a dual boot configuration having already installed Windows and got it partitioned as I want it (why do M$ make it so hard to have a mounted partition for the home directory as is common and sensible practice in linux?!!!). Now the problem is gparted doesnt recognise any partitions on the hard disk and sees the whole thing as unallocated. Windows boots quite happily and sees all the ntfs partitions. I have run gparted f
[17:42] <qwyeth> DopeGhoti, no, it can't.
[17:42] <DopeGhoti> qwyeth: can you pastebin the output of 'sudo netstat -plnt'?
[17:42] <Assil> mezquitale: i on a bad shape :( my internet connection sucks !
[17:43] <tomstoms> If anyone has any idea about my ATI problem, I'll give more info as needed too.
[17:43] <Plouj> hi
[17:43] <Plouj> what's the equivalent of gnome-session-save --gui --logout-dialog in hardy? (gnome 2.22)
[17:43] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: looks like the ATI driver you've downloaded doesn't support your kernel version based on that output.  Only a guess though.
[17:43] <nastas> hi all. i'm trying to install some drivers and i'm getting errors. check here http://pastebin.ubuntu-gr.org/m78ef1e7d any idea?
[17:43] <Assil> mezquitale: i do really appreciate what you did for me :) thx again !  see you  ... :)
[17:44] <mezquitale> Assil, no problem
[17:44] <qwyeth> DopeGhoti, pastebin.org/65676
[17:44] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, have you install the ATI driver successfully before?
[17:44] <chiques> Is there a Linux app that's good for texting back and forth from Ubuntu
[17:45] <DopeGhoti> chiques: you mean instant messaging, or SMS to and from cell phones?
[17:45] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: Sorry, I use Nvidia cards
[17:45] <chiques> DopeGhoti, SMS to cell phones
[17:46] <nasrullah1> hi to all
[17:47] <DopeGhoti> qwyeth: again, on laptop, make a directory in /mnt for the share, and try 'mount -t smbfs //<IP_ADDRESS>/share /mnt/share' (with laptop's actual IP and share name)
[17:47] <nasrullah1> how to set up realplayer codecs in totem
[17:47] <DopeGhoti> qwyeth: qwyeth sudo as needed :)
[17:47] <qwyeth> of course ^_^
[17:47] <mezquitale> !hello | nasrullah1
[17:47] <mmo|> Can anyone tell me how to make my thinkpad trackpoint work in Ubuntu 9.10? I have tried gpointing but it doesnt really do anything. Also I have tried copying that file into the policy dir but it does not work either (after restart)
[17:47] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, you were right. The kernel is too new (and any kernel on Jaunty is too new for the legacy ATI drivers.)
[17:48] <grimtooth> anybody ever had the problem that pidgin or empathy wont show any contacts?
[17:48] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, the problem is, when I suspend to RAM, I cannot resume. The screen stays black, and I'm thinking it's because I'm using the open source radeon driver instead?
[17:48] <maco> grimtooth: is empathy just not doing anything at all?
[17:48] <mezquitale> grimtooth, yes, it's a setting that hides all offline users
[17:48] <maco> grimtooth: like it opens but doesnt connect or anything?
[17:48] <grimtooth> it says im connected and im aviable but no contacts are online
[17:48] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: I've had problems with STR as well sometimes. Have you tried hibernating?
[17:49] <maco> oh
[17:49] <grimtooth> if i start up pidgin under windows it show 10 online
[17:49] <grimtooth> so thats weird
[17:49] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, nope, not yet. I would prefer to use S2R though, and I might as well do a full shutdown instead of hibernate, since I don't mind waiting a few extra seconds to boot.
[17:50] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: you can isolate the ATI driver you're using as a cause by dropping to text-only console and testing with 'apmsleep'
[17:50] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, it's strange, because on openSUSE 11.1, suspend/resume worked fine. Is there something it did differently?
[17:50] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, you mean runlevel 1?
[17:50] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: to stop the X server, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop (save your data in open apps first, this will kill your X serveR)
[17:50] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: or three.
[17:51] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, I thought runlevels 2,3,4 and 5 don't exist in Ubuntu?
[17:51] <nasrullah1> realplayer codecs for totem
[17:51] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: well, with 9.10, it uses upstart, but still has wrappers for runlevels
[17:51] <tomstoms> Okay, so when I do apmsleep, it will output any problem modules that may be interfering?
[17:51] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: apmsleep is the CLI tool to suspend to RAM :)
[17:52] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: (specifically, apmsleep --suspend)
[17:52] <nasrullah1> realplayer codecs for totem player
[17:52] <plainhao> eh, trying to finally upgrade my gutsy to hardy. by changing my apt/sources.list from gutsy to hardy, did i hose anything?
[17:52] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, oh, okay. And by not having the X server running, it will rule out the ATI driver?
[17:53] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: exactly :)
[17:53] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, sounds awesome. Thank you! I will be back with a status update.
[17:53] <DopeGhoti> plainhao: is there a readon you didn't just use the update manager to upgrade?
[17:53] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: good luck!
[17:53] <tdn> I am trying to install Ubuntu from Alternate CD, but I get this error: Failed to determine the codename for the release.
[17:53] <plainhao> doing through ssh
[17:53] <DopeGhoti> plainhao: the CLI tool would be 'do-release-upgrade' :)
[17:54] <plainhao> DopeGhoti, tried that
[17:54] <DopeGhoti> plainhao: to what effect?
[17:54] <grimtooth> anybody ever had the problem that pidgin or empathy wont show any contacts?
[17:54] <chiques> has anyone tried this? http://john.mcclumpha.org/linux/Build_your_own_SMS_gateway_with_Ubuntu_Linux_and_Gammu/
[17:54] <plainhao> Checking for a new ubuntu release
[17:54] <plainhao> current dist not found in meta-release file
[17:54] <plainhao> No new release found
[17:54] <DopeGhoti> grimtooth: only when all my firends were offline
[17:54] <ralf_e> is there some guide available about how to get sources of a ubuntu package, apply a patch and build a new package? (concrete, nautilus and this patch https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=167501#c34 which adds undo/redo support to nautilus - I'd like to test that change)
[17:55] <tdn> How do I install Ubuntu Alternate from USB drive instaead of CDROM?
[17:55] <DopeGhoti> plainhao: apt-get update && do-release-upgrade
[17:55] <plainhao> did that
[17:55] <grimtooth> they're online
[17:55] <plainhao> are the gutsy sources no longer reachable?
[17:55] <DopeGhoti> !gutsy
[17:55] <grimtooth> i had this bug since i installed 9.10
[17:55] <DopeGhoti> yep, it end of lifed this year :/
[17:56] <DopeGhoti> !eol
[17:56] <plainhao> well, i just changed gutsy to hardy in my sources.list and ran update and running upgrade now, wondering if i’m going to regret it
[17:56] <trism> ralf_e: this page describes a pretty simple method to get the source and rebuild a package http://www.moosechips.com/2008/09/ubuntu-rebuild-a-source-package/ (doesn't go into how to patch though)
[17:56] <Ramosa> when you are asked to create a new partition in the beginning or the end, do they mean after the current partition(s) ? and what does it matter
[17:56] <plainhao> unfortunately, the server was running fine for so long, i neglected it
[17:56] <DopeGhoti> plainhao: you might have some orphaned packages, but I don't think it'd going to explode in your face
[17:57] <DopeGhoti> plainhao: "If it ain't broke, don't break it" can be a double-edged sword :)
[17:57] <ralf_e> trism, thanks!
[17:57] <JrodDCx> poor guy
[17:57] <plainhao> thanks, DopeGhoti, going to retry the do-release-upgrade after the aptitude upgrade finishes
[17:58] <DopeGhoti> plainhao: good luck.  Also, you might want to check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes if you've not already done so.
[17:59] <Shawn-> is there any way to change the port that a game uses to connect to the interwebz
[17:59] <plainhao> in case i need to start from scratch, does the latest postfix still need patching for a db backend?
[17:59] <DopeGhoti> plainhao: and also: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[17:59] <grimtooth> what is a good alternative to pidgin and empathy?
[17:59] <qwyeth> DopeGhoti, pastebin.org/65683
[17:59] <maco> grimtooth: kopete
[17:59] <mikobuntu> grimtooth,  amsn
[18:00] <grimtooth> i need a client that does icq and msn
[18:00] <isolat3dsh33p> guys, how to start scim? I forgot. :(
[18:00] <plainhao> ack, wish i’d seen that eolupgrades page earlier
[18:00] <plainhao> thanks, DopeGhoti
[18:00] <Ramosa> what do I choose as mount point for my primary partition ?
[18:00] <Dmole> grimtooth: piogen
[18:00] <DopeGhoti> qwyeth: looks like Laptop isn't offering up the share at all.  Have you tried unsharing and resharing the directory?
[18:01] <Shawn-> Ramosa /
[18:01] <Dmole> grimtooth: pidgen
[18:01] <JrodDCx> The Mount point would be /
[18:01] <Ramosa> Shawn, I have to specify it?
[18:01] <plustax> Hi there. I'm having an issue. I can't get my webcam to work with tinychat.com or stickam.com It works in cheese, but that's about it. Can anyone help me out?
[18:01] <Shawn-> Ramosa do you mean for installing ubuntu
[18:01] <llutz> plainhao: "apt-cache search postfix" will give you a list with versions for different db-systems
[18:01] <Ramosa> Shawn, actually not :)
[18:02] <qwyeth> DopeGhoti, yes, I've done that
[18:02] <Ramosa> Shawn, Jolicloud
[18:02] <qwyeth> same symptoms
[18:02] <Shawn-> Ramosa what are you trying to do then. Your root partition should automatically mount
[18:02] <barryberry> plustax any luck with facebook?
[18:02] <plustax> No sir.
[18:02] <plainhao> awesome, thanks, llutz
[18:02] <MASARUwota> plustax: whats the problem?
[18:02] <Ramosa> Shawn: i am asked about mount point during installation
[18:03] <plustax> I go to tinychat.com and start broadcasting
[18:03] <plustax> and it can't find my cam.
[18:03] <plustax> The only thing I can see that actually shows my cam is the cheese program.
[18:03] <MASARUwota> plustax: does the "cheese" application find it?
[18:03] <plustax> Manycam doesnt work either.
[18:03] <MASARUwota> ;/
[18:03] <plustax> Also, I am using an asus laptop with a built in cam.
[18:03] <plustax> yes, cheese finds it.
[18:03] <MASARUwota> plustax: i see
[18:04] <Shawn-> Ramaso yes your main partition would be root but you should also have space for swap and optionally a /home partition as well
[18:04] <Guest29291> Hey all
[18:04] <Shawn-> Ramosa *
[18:04] <Guest29291> I had a question about Sun's Virtual Box.
[18:04] <JrodDCx> It seems like your camra has a kernel driver but flash is being stupid ?
[18:04] <Guest29291> Anyone have wisdom on the subject?
[18:04] <plustax> can someone PM me and help me fix this issue? I will post results of the solution when finished.
[18:04] <plustax> I just really need to get this issue fix'd if possible.
[18:04] <DopeGhoti> qwyeth: on a lark, haveyou tried /etc/init.d/smbd restart ?
[18:04] <Ace42> I'm getting an "Invalid module format" error when modprobing some modules that were working fine (rmmod / modprobe) earlier.  I think a laptop crash might mean there's a process still active that is persisting through reboots; any suggestions?
[18:05] <darkscrypt> i'm looking for an easy way to get sendmail working for php
[18:05] <Ramosa> Shawn, i really need a partition for home?
[18:05] <Shawn-> Guest2929 I know about it what's up
[18:05] <darkscrypt> all i need is just a simple smtp server to send mail from.. i dont care what domain, i'm just wanting it to work with drupal
[18:05] <Guest29291> Can you PM me please Shawn?
[18:05] <barryberry> plustax I have the same problem I would like to record video on facebook...
[18:05] <darkscrypt> if anybody knows of something perhaps like a sendmail snap in, that works the same as sendmail but uses a remote smtp server and acts as a wrapper around sendmail
[18:05] <Shawn-> Ramosa yes its safer to have a seperate home patition that way if you fill up home with personal data your system will still boot
[18:05] <darkscrypt> that would be greatly helpful
[18:05] <plustax> barryberry
[18:06] <plustax> join #camhelp with me
[18:06] <Ramosa> Shawn, what size you recommend for root and for home partitions if I have about 80 gigs to dedicate
[18:06] <plustax> I will see if I can get some guru's in there with us
[18:07] <Shawn-> Ramosa about 20 or 25 gigs to / and then double your ram to swap and the rest to /home
[18:07] <haresh> any oen facing problem  with amsn liek loging taking very long
[18:07] <qwyeth> DopeGhoti, nope, that didn't work-
[18:08] <DopeGhoti> qwyeth: can you pastebin your /etc/samba/smb.conf ?
[18:08] <qwyeth> DopeGhoti, I can if you want, but I already ran a diff on smb.conf between the laptop and the vm and they're totally identical
[18:09] <JonathanEllis> On a machine with 1GB of RAM, what is a reasonable swap partition size? 1.5GB?
[18:09] <DopeGhoti> qwyeth: the thing is, if laptop can't even access its own share, something must be amiss, or there is a firewall klobbering the traffic
[18:09] <Ramosa> Shawn, thanks.. ext3 for all right?
[18:09] <kermit> JonathanEllis: yeah
[18:09] <DopeGhoti> qwyeth: is there a firewall on the laptop?
[18:09] <plustax> ramosa can you help me please?
[18:09] <plustax> :)
[18:10] <JonathanEllis> kermit: Or should I make it twice the physical RAM?
[18:10] <Ramosa> plustax, im not guru
[18:10] <kermit> JonathanEllis: well no, maybe more if you want to ensure hibernate works
[18:10] <JonathanEllis> kermit: I dont trust hibernate. I always shut down
[18:10] <Dr_Willis> JonathanEllis:  how much hd space total.. and do you plan on using Hibernate.. are the 2 big questions
[18:10] <plustax> Can anyone here help me troubleshoot my webcam problem in Ubuntu 9.10? I can't get it to work with web applications. Only cheese.
[18:10] <kermit> JonathanEllis: then 1.5GB is fine
[18:10] <Dr_Willis> JonathanEllis:  then 1.5gb will proberly be plenty. make it 2gb if ya really think you may need it
[18:11] <isolat3dsh33p> Guys, there's something seems suspicious to me in my Network:/// There's another computer title "USER-PC" where before it does not exist. There's another one which is mine. Is this normal? Btw, in my network, there's no other linux computer besides me
[18:11] <JonathanEllis> Dr_Willis: 55.89 Gib hard disk. But I am dual booting with windows so about a third of that has gone already
[18:11] <qnix> Hi, what's the proper way to run 2 differents apache2 with different configuration?
[18:11] <qwyeth> nope... iptables -S shows -P INPUT ACCEPT ; -P FORWARD ACCEPT; -P OUTPUT ACCEPT ... and there wouldn't be any other firewall; it's pretty close to a fresh install; the only things I added to it were picasa, banshee, chromium-browser, bisigi themes, and VLC
[18:12] <nullkuhl_> how to install kde(latest version) on Ubuntu Karmic Koala ?
[18:12] <Dr_Willis> isolat3dsh33p:  sure its not your router? My router shows up  since it can share a hd attatched to it.  also check the outoput of 'smbtree' and 'findsmb'
[18:12] <vicious> i accidentaly removed /etc/samba. i tried reinstalling samba, reconfiguring it, to no avail. What should i do to get those config files back?
[18:12] <qwyeth> it's attached to the same switch as the VM (which is currently sharing the host NIC in bridged mode)
[18:12] <Dr_Willis> JonathanEllis:  id say 1.5gb is fine.
[18:12] <JonathanEllis> Dr_Willis: Thanks
[18:13] <Samuel> anyone happen to kow the command to install ubuntu from command line?
[18:13] <DopeGhoti> vicious: apt-get --reinstall install samba perhaps?
[18:14] <Dr_Willis> Samuel:  you mean sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop   ?
[18:14] <DopeGhoti> nullkuhl_: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[18:14] <Samuel> no, I don't want to install a package, I want to install ubuntu
[18:14] <isolat3dsh33p> Dr_Willis: It's under the workgroup, there's no info for USER-PC for smbtree and not listed in USER-PC. What does it means?
[18:14] <Dr_Willis> Samuel:  what do you have installed right now? You mean the binary name of the installer the live cd uses?
[18:15] <Samuel> Dr_Willis, yes, I'm using the live CD
[18:15] <Dr_Willis> isolat3dsh33p:  not sure.  does findcd find it?
[18:15] <Dr_Willis> Samuel:  the icon on the desktop dosent work?
[18:15] <Samuel> Dr_Willis, no, it booted into command line, not x windows
[18:15] <Dr_Willis> I forget the name of the installer program. and if its a desktop cd. there is no cli installer...
[18:15] <Dr_Willis> Samuel:  desktop cd or alternative installer cd?
[18:16] <isolat3dsh33p> Dr_Willis: Command not found. :/ Anyway thanks.
[18:16] <Mithran> Booted a server with the Ubuntu 9.10 live CD, and it didn't automatically load the appropriate module for my SCSI controller. I've activated the module with modprobe, but the drives on the controller still don't show up in fdisk -l.
[18:16] <Samuel> ooooh, I thought the installer program worked both ways :(
[18:16] <Dr_Willis> isolat3dsh33p:  its part of some of the smb packages i always install i imagine.  I forget what one.
[18:16] <Dr_Willis> isolat3dsh33p:  its findsmb I thijnk.. not findcd. :) lol.
[18:17] <vicious> DopeGhoti, nope didnt do the trick :(
[18:17] <vicious> DopeGhoti, just want those default config files back
[18:17] <isolat3dsh33p> Dr_Willis: I just hope it's not something malicious... :(
[18:17] <Dr_Willis> !find findsmb
[18:17] <Sinister>  is there a way to remove the numbers from files in console like 01222outside.jpg 012232.inside.jpg i just want inside.jpg outside.jpg i do it with the camera now but i have 15,000 pics anyway to mass do it ?
[18:17] <Lazydragoon> someone know why i can't accept term and agreement when i install a progrem ?
[18:17] <DopeGhoti> vicious: sterner measures, then:  apt-get --purge remove samba; apt-get  install samba
[18:17] <Dr_Willis> isolat3dsh33p:  findsmb here shows the ip of every smb server on my lan. its shoding the router here. Perhaps that will give some info
[18:18] <jsmidt>  I am trying to compile a program that requires config.h.  Which package contains this file?
[18:18] <Dr_Willis> Lazydragoon:  if using the command line.. use the tab keuy to select OK and hit enter
[18:18] <Dr_Willis> Lazydragoon:  NOT the mouse.
[18:18] <DopeGhoti> Sinister: it's easy to script as long as either there are no duplicated when digits are removed, or you don't care about losing such duplicated
[18:19] <plustax> I really need some help here guys
[18:19] <plustax> my mic doesnt work either
[18:19] <Lazydragoon> Dr_Willis umm its because i need to drop the arrow till the end to get the accept but he never appear
[18:19] <plustax> and my cam doesnt work in web applications
[18:19] <Dr_Willis> Lazydragoon: try pageup/pagedown
[18:19] <JonathanEllis> Im just restoring Ubuntu from a backup by copying the partition from a spare hard disk in gparted. The partition numbers will all be different as the dual boot config is different to when I made the backup. I will also need grub installed to the MBR as I have installed windows too. Can grub automatically generate menu.lst and add an entry for windows or must I do it by hand? Or is this a job for super grub disk?
[18:20] <trism> jsmidt: going to need more information, apt-file shows 100+ packages with config.h
[18:20] <jas72z> plustax have you enabled mic in sound settings
[18:20] <Dr_Willis> plustax:  flash in linux - im not sure can use any cams. see if it works in the cheese program.
[18:20] <isolat3dsh33p> Dr_Willis: If there's no IP for USER-PC, that means it's something that has no connection to my files or anything from me right? Hope i'm right.
[18:20] <DopeGhoti> Sinister: It's actually a one-liner, but again, you'd lose most files with duplicated names after digits were stripped
[18:20] <JonathanEllis> Oh. Its Jaunty by the way so I guess that might mean it wants to use grub 2?
[18:20] <Lazydragoon> ok i will
[18:20] <Dr_Willis> isolat3dsh33p:  i woudlent think so. Not sure where it could be comming from. Unless its a router..  You are not running anyting in virtualbox are youi?
[18:21] <plustax> Dr_Willis it does work in the cheese program, and I have seen many users use cams in flash based applications who used ubuntu or mint. They said that it just worked no problems for them.
[18:21] <Dr_Willis> plustax:  ive seen people ask that exact same question in here about flash/webcams.. and never seen a definitive answer.
[18:21] <Sinister> DopeGhoti, whats the one line ?
[18:21] <Dr_Willis> plustax:  check the forums perhaps thers some fix/tweak. or could be its an issue with specific cam make/models
[18:22] <barryberry> plustax I got a solution run a virtual machine :)
[18:22] <plustax> I think it might be.
[18:22] <Dr_Willis> !info renameutils | Sinister
[18:22] <plustax> My issue is...I'm a bit helpless with this kind of stuff. I'm afraid I will require some in depth assistance.
[18:22] <Lazydragoon> Dr_Willis not work :(
[18:22] <Dr_Willis> Sinister:  theres also several other renaming tools in the repos.  The rox file manager also has some neat rename features
[18:22] <plustax> I don't know the first thing about this stuff :(
[18:22] <isolat3dsh33p> Dr_Willis: I believe so, I'm not even sure what's virtualbox is. Is it possible if someone gets my IP and use it for DoS attack.
[18:22] <Dr_Willis> Lazydragoon:  what are you installing anyway>?
[18:22] <Lazydragoon> Dr_Willis wow in cedega
[18:23] <Dr_Willis> isolat3dsh33p:  if you are running ubuntu - most likely not. You could try a live cd and see if the unknown machine shows upwhere also.
[18:23] <unit3> Anyone know what desktop process keeps creating ~/Photos, which I don't want or need on my work desktop? :)
[18:23] <Dr_Willis> Lazydragoon:  check the wine app database, or the cedega forums wouild be the best bet.
[18:23] <DopeGhoti> Sinister: for a in "*.jpg" do mv $a `echo $a | sed 's/(0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9)//g'`; done
[18:23] <DopeGhoti> Sinister:correction:  for a in "*.jpg"; do mv $a `echo $a | sed 's/(0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9)//g'`; done
[18:24] <Lazydragoon> Dr_Willis i know but can't find anything about my problem so im bored lol
[18:24] <xnox> I made I live usb creator with space allocated to store files. I use the stick everyday. Is it possible to mount that filesystem on ubuntu so that I can copy files which were created in live session?
[18:24] <grawity> DopeGhoti: Uh. s/[0-9]//g
[18:24] <isolat3dsh33p> Dr_Willis: Ok dude, thanks for helping. Going to check it now. Btw, I'm sure it's not my router.
[18:24] <Lazydragoon> and cedega chan not answer to
[18:24] <barryberry> plustax do you have a dell laptop?
[18:24] <wilhart> http://pastebin.ca/1717231
[18:24] <grawity> DopeGhoti: Also, wildcards are not expanded inside quotes.
[18:25] <wilhart> sorry, anyone have problems with cairdo-dock and playing media when it's on?
[18:25] <Dr_Willis> Lazydragoon:  i dont play wow. so no idea. its a wine/cedega issue aparently  so not really a Ubuntu issue. you COULD try turning off compiz if its on.. and see if it works   then i guess
[18:25] <grawity> DopeGhoti: So for a in *.jpg; do mv "$a" "`echo "$a" | sed 's/[0-9]//g'`"; done
[18:25] <DopeGhoti> grawity: mm.  Still learning regexes.  And yes, they are; you need the quoted in fact, in the case that filenames have spaces in them.
[18:25] <Lazydragoon> Dr_Willis ok i will try that
[18:25] <wilhart> anyone??
[18:25] <boscop_> I have enough of ubuntu freezing because of vlc freaking out and allocating all the ram. how can I automatically kill the app that has allocated the most space when the overall ram usage exceeds a certain point??
[18:25] <grawity> DopeGhoti: Then quote the variable, not the wildcard.
[18:25] <hamzaatova1> hi - ive an awful problem with empathy - when i try to add an msn user i get the text changed to my address so i cant add - what is it?
[18:26] <grawity> DopeGhoti: That's the usual way of doing it. And no, wildcards aren't expanded inside quotes...
[18:26] <Dr_Willis> boscop_:  i recall KDE haveing a featurte like that ages ago.. but never seen a similer thing in gnome. (it was a kde panel applet i recall)
[18:26] <grawity> rain ~/public_html » echo "*.html"
[18:26] <grawity> *.html
[18:26] <kent> I have a question
[18:26] <Sinister> mv: missing file operand
[18:26] <boscop_> Dr_Willis: I'm using xfce
[18:26] <boscop_> Dr_Willis: isn't that independent of the windowing system?
[18:27] <Dr_Willis> boscop_:  it was a kde app i recalled called '
[18:27] <plustax> no I have an Asus laptop
[18:27] <DopeGhoti> grawity: just tested it, it does work, and if you don't quote the wildcard, 'this that.jpg' gets split into 'this' and 'that.jpg' when the for loop iterates.
[18:27] <wilhart> please?
[18:27] <Clueless2> Dr_Willis ... hi!
[18:27] <Dr_Willis> boscop_:  runaway process catcher'   - No ideawhat else may do a similer task.
[18:27] <Pici> DopeGhoti, grawity: wouldnt    rename 's/[0-9]*//' *.jpg    be simpler?
[18:27] <grawity> DopeGhoti: It wouldn't be if you quoted the "$a".
[18:27] <Dr_Willis> boscop_:  you could try some newer versions of vlc. could be theres some bug. Ive never had that issue with vlc and i use vlc constantluy.
[18:27] <Dr_Willis> Hello Clueless2
[18:27] <Clueless2> Dr_willis .. question for u .. so when downloading apps, i have to find apps. for Ubuntu development right? I just can't download any Linux based apps and install on my Ubuntu?
[18:28] <barryberry> plustax I would reccomend you write a forum on the ubuntu forum page
[18:28] <grawity> Pici: Maybe. I always forget that Debian comes with Perl's 'rename'.
[18:28] <Dr_Willis> Clueless2:  look for ubuntu packages for precompiled binaries.. but ive rarely needed to do that. Most all i need are in some sort of repo. or i can use source.
[18:28] <Seito> hi! anyone knows how to make huawei e156g 3g modem working on jaunty x64?

[18:29] <Dr_Willis> Clueless2:  depends on what you want. theres dozens of unofficial repos out now. and then theres the PPA repos. google has their own repo and many others exist
[18:29] <grawity> DopeGhoti: So you must be using a really weird shell then.
[18:29] <Clueless2> Dr_Willis .. it seems there is alot of apps for Ubuntu out there but I can't seem to find it

[18:31] <boomernang> nbnds, what problem are you having?
[18:31] <Dr_Willis> Clueless2:  system -> admin -> software source   and enable all the ubuntu based ones.. then its a matter of finding any others you may need and adding them
[18:31] <Clueless2> yes that i am looking for
[18:31] <qwyeth> DopeGhoti, when I specify credentials with -o user=username it mounts.  The problem isn't reaching the share, it's that the "Guest access" checkbox doesn't work.

[18:40] <Crewsr3> I'm having trouble with checksums not working.  I have a portable hard drive on NTSF and I want to pull a very large file from.  I ran a checksum on the hard drive made a copy on my main computer and the checksums don't match.  I ran a second checksum on the portable hard drive and second checksum on the original file is diffrent.  Why would a checksum on the source come up diffrent?
[18:40] <OmniCitadel> greetings all... being new to linux... 1.5 years and counting, I am having an issue with eve-online running in wine... I have researched this extensively and the one last glimmer is that ubuntu makes some kookie changes to the kernels which "might" be to blame, and thus what is advised is to upgrade the kernel to the latest kernel.org stable release... I need to know the best way which is easiest
[18:40] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: darn. I was hoping it would act as an lpr :p
[18:40] <caja2_> hehehe
[18:40] <caja2_> shoot
[18:40] <boomernang> nbnds, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=673946   - that should help you. although can you pastebin the output of this - cat /proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD/brightness
[18:40] <Threetimes> Hi, will the KÖNIG CMP-USBVG5 usb 2.0 audio/video grabber work in ubuntu? I haven't bought it yet... http://www.nedis.nl/ARTLDetail.php?ARTLID=1108956
[18:41] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: you said you got CUPS working with it, yes?  can you "echo asdf | lpr" ?
[18:41] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, yes
[18:41] <DopeGhoti> !hcl | Threetimes
[18:41] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, that worked
[18:41] <qwyeth> beefly, are there any other computers that can connect to this access point?  Have you tried rebooting the wireless router?
[18:42] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: so the CUPS wrapping is at least working; that's something at least
[18:42] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: your app just won't play nice with CUPS though, will it? :-/
[18:42] <M1TE5H> can anybody know how to add user through terminal with admin privilege i have root access
[18:42] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, no, it won't

[18:42] <caja2_> bummer*
[18:42] <nbnds> boomernang: thank you
[18:43] <Threetimes> DopeGhoti: Konig isn't in the list at all...
[18:43] <qwyeth> barryberry, the second question I asked him after 'is it turned on' was 'did it work before'
[18:43] <OmniCitadel> any one have any advice for an easy way to upgrade to the latest kernel.org kernel?
[18:43] <Dr_Willis> Lazydragoon:  thats sounds liek the 'system tray' or whatever its called its a 'widit' that holds the special icons. it should have a little handel bar near the left taht has those menus..
[18:43] <kaie> hello. I will travel to a country with very little bandwidth. I will bring a ubuntu system with me.

[18:43] <DopeGhoti> M1TE5H: Are you asking how, with admin privileges, to add a user, or are you asking how to add a user with admin priviliges?
[18:43] <Dr_Willis> !resetpanels | Lazydragoon
[18:44] <Dr_Willis> Lazydragoon:  its all about where you click exactly ti get the differne tmenus
[18:44] <qwyeth> barryberry, we haven't ruled out a problem with the network hardware.  I suspect his ubuntu might be working fine
[18:44] <Dr_Willis> bye all
[18:44] <DopeGhoti> kaie: look into apt-mirror perhaps, and bring a complete repo with you?
[18:44] <Lazydragoon> ok that work thanks
[18:44]  * caja2_ sighs
[18:44] <hamzaatova1> i want to chat with someone - what platform there is if not all the empathy options and not skype??????/
[18:44] <qwyeth> barryberry, also, he sees the ssid in his list, which means ubuntu detects it and the antenna works
[18:45] <M1TE5H> can anybody know how 2 add user through terminal in ubuntu 8.10
[18:45] <grawity> M1TE5H: 'sudo adduser'
[18:45] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: hamzaatova1 pidgin?
[18:46] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: oops, that wasn't supposed to have your name on it :/
[18:46] <caja2_> lol
[18:46] <Threetimes> Hi, will the KÖNIG CMP-USBVG5 usb 2.0 audio/video grabber work in ubuntu? I haven't bought it yet... http://www.nedis.nl/ARTLDetail.php?ARTLID=1108956 It's not in the official HCL, but will it work?!
[18:46] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: anyhow, I'll keep pondering what can be done, but I'm drawing a blank at the moment :/
[18:46] <Crewsr3> I ran two different check sums on the same file in the same location and they are coming up differently.  Can someone help me figure out what is going on
[18:46] <beefly1> Working now, thanks!
[18:47] <grawity> M1TE5H: Add the new user to the 'admin' group. And don't PM me.
[18:47] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, lol thanks man!
[18:48] <M1TE5H> how to add admin group
[18:48] <dbugger> Hey guys! Can anyone tell me if there's a way to put a background image on gedit?
[18:48] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, one question. Is lp0 a port?
[18:48] <Compost> Howdy folks
[18:48] <caja2_> or usblp0
[18:49] <grawity> caja2_: lp0 should be the zeroth printer port (LPT in Windows)
[18:49] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: lp0 should be a parallel port (compare LPT1: in Windowsland)
[18:49] <caja2_> ok
[18:49] <caja2_> got it
[18:49] <IcyJ> Is there a way to get CUPS to start at boot?  I am getting a "The CUPS scheduler is not running" message until I run "sudo service cups start"
[18:50] <grawity> IcyJ: Try 'sudo update-rc.d cups defaults'
[18:50] <DopeGhoti> IcyJ: see update-rc.d
[18:50] <Threetimes> Hi, will the KÖNIG CMP-USBVG5 usb 2.0 audio/video grabber work in ubuntu? I haven't bought it yet... http://www.nedis.nl/ARTLDetail.php?ARTLID=1108956 It's not in the official HCL, but will it work?!
[18:51] <IcyJ> grawity, DopeGhoti:  When I do that, I get the message: System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/cups already exist.
[18:51] <riverbird> Threetimes, check the supported hardware lists in the forums
[18:51] <caja2_> is tere a way to stop CUPS?
[18:52] <Threetimes> riverbird: thanks!
[18:52] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: /etc/init.d/cups stop
[18:52] <epinky> Threetimes: if it's not in HCL, probably not
[18:52] <Compost> I need help solving a dependency problem with Ubuntu 9.10 I get when trying ot install xdraft 0.12 debian package. The dependency error I get is from gdk-imlib11 and I can't install gdk-imlib11 because libglib1.2ldbl (>= 1.2.10-18). The developer of xdraft says  Ubuntu renamed glib to glibdbl or something. What can I do about this, please help me if you can. I need to use this app for a school project

[18:53] <crypt-00> hi im getting this error when trying to play *any* video file  with VLC "Streaming / Transcoding failed: VLC could not open the encoder."
[18:53] <d[a]ssou1i> i wonder why did most of my menus disappear
[18:54] <d[a]ssou1i> pidgin, skype, gimp, eclipse, the menus are all gone yet the apps function perfectly
[18:54] <Ramosa> i have a 6GB windows restore partition at /dev/sda1 .. when I install my linux root partition, do I put it in the beginning or end? The restore partition is activated from bios
[18:54] <DopeGhoti> d[a]ssou1i: press apt+F2, and in the popup, type gnome-panel
[18:54] <DopeGhoti> d[a]ssou1i: alt-F2 rather
[18:54] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, I disabled CUPS and did "cat /dev/usblp0" and got a bunch of  characters, does that mean I'm GETTING from the printer?
[18:55] <d[a]ssou1i> DopeGhoti: no application menus are missing
[18:55] <kaie> DopeGhoti, thank you very much for pointing me to apt-mirror
[18:55] <d[a]ssou1i> DopeGhoti: not the panel, the menus inside the application
[18:55] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: indeed, yes, which makes (a sort of) sense, what with it being a USB device and all.  When you're testing, you want to cat > /dev/usblp0 :)
[18:55] <DopeGhoti> kaie: my pleasure
[18:55] <DopeGhoti> d[a]ssou1i: hmm, interesting.
[18:55] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, it didn't work.
[18:55] <Compost> crypt-00: do you have the ubuntu-restricted-extras package?
[18:56] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: phooey.
[18:56] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, the command told me my kernel doesn't support ACPI?
[18:56] <jaik> Good evening. I've installed BerkeleyDB. But on each compiling, I've to show up the libs manually: "g++ main.cpp -o dbApp -ldb_cxx-4.7 -I /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.7/include/". Does anyone know, how I can include them in the system?
[18:56] <crypt-00> Compost, yes.
[18:56] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, it's weird, because I can invoke suspend by using the battery applet.
[18:57] <rbehr> I am running ubuntu 9.1. I am having difficulty with the Evolution Email. Is there another email client that would work better with Exchange 2003?
[18:57] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, woooh
[18:57] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: try pm-suspend perhaps?
[18:57] <caja2_> DopeGhoti,  got it working man
[18:57] <caja2_> thanks a lot
[18:57] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, I was just about to say that, lol.
[18:57] <tomstoms> BRB
[18:57] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: seriously?  Yay!
[18:57] <caja2_> DopeGhoti, the thing was that CUPS was taking over the usblp0 and assigning it to it's own queue or something.
[18:58] <Compost> crypt-00: then I don't know...
[18:58] <epinky> rbehr: try Thunderbird, it's an alternative to Evolution
[18:58] <Threetimes> barryberry: better url: http://blog.worldofkonig.com/audio-video/cmp-usbvg5/
[18:58] <rbehr> I am running ubuntu 9.1. I am having difficulty with the Evolution Email. Is there another email client that would work better with Exchange 2003? Also is there a way I can install MS Internet Explorer on Ubuntu?
[18:58] <DopeGhoti> caja2_: that makes sense as well. Glad you'reup and running! :D

[19:01] <rbehr> Thank you.... Is there a way I can install IE in Ubuntu???
[19:01] <blakkheim> rbehr: why would you do that?
[19:01] <DopeGhoti> Lorra: If you don't get an answer in here, you could try #kubuntu, wherein most folks probably use KDE, proportionally speaking
[19:01] <erUSUL> rbehr: ie4linux; or wine
[19:01] <erUSUL> !wine | rbehr
[19:01] <erUSUL> !appdb > rbehr
[19:02] <rbehr> I am working with SharePoint and Firefox does not give me the options that IE 8 has with SharePOint
[19:02] <DopeGhoti> rbehr: There's an FF plugin that can have FF pretend to be IE, so that Microsoft sites don't dumb themselves down.
[19:02] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: any luck?
[19:02] <rbehr> thank you:)
[19:03] <Achoth> Hi. I tried to reinstall Samba and ended up making it broken, so it isn't installed or removed. And when I try to install it, it just fails and complains about /usr/bin/dpkg. How do I completely remove all traces of Samba so it can be installed again?
[19:03] <zenlunatic> rbehr, blame MS
[19:03] <IcyJ> Does anyone know how to get CUPS to run at boot?  sudo update-rc.d cups defaults did not fix it.  If I run "sudo service cups start" it will start.
[19:03] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, I stopped GDM then did (in TTY1) pm-suspend. It suspended fine, but the same thing happened when I tried to resume. A blinking cursor with no HDD acitivity and no response from keyboard.
[19:03] <d[a]ssou1i> In some of my applications, I've lost the File/Edit .. menus ...
[19:03] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, maybe there's a way to use /etc/pm/config.d/ and tell it to unload a module first?
[19:03] <zenlunatic> IcyJ, have you tried the web gui
[19:03] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: check the computer's BIOS' power managements settings; there might be something to tweak in there
[19:03] <epinky> IcyJ: try "sudo rcconf" , it's not installed by default
[19:03] <Tiders-> WHere do the ssh-server conf files go natively
[19:04] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, it gives me the option to enable or disable ACPI on the BIOS, nothing else.
[19:04] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, it's a very basic BIOS.
[19:04] <DopeGhoti> IcyJ: you could add 'sleep 10 && /etc/init.d/cups start' to /etc/rc.local
[19:04] <IcyJ> epinky: command not found
[19:04] <blakkheim> Tiders-: /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[19:04] <epinky> IcyJ: it's not installed by default: sudo apt-get install rcconf
[19:04] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: try changing it to the other setting?  As for editing /etc/pm/*, I've not meddled with those settings, so you know as much as I as far as that's concerned.
[19:05] <turtle__> cole me down on the panny sty
[19:05] <sebsebseb> hi
[19:06] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, no problem.
[19:06] <IcyJ> epinky: CUPS is marked when I run rcconf
[19:06] <tomstoms> DopeGhoti, thank you either way.
[19:06] <DopeGhoti> tomstoms: glad to be of service
[19:06] <IcyJ> zenlunitic:  I have not tried the web gui, the address must be something like: localhost:xxx ?
[19:07] <DopeGhoti> IcyJ: did rc.local not work?
[19:07] <IcyJ> DopeGhoti: correct
[19:07] <dakeyras> hi
[19:07] <dakeyras> is there any french support ?
[19:07] <Pici> !fr | dakeyras
[19:08] <IcyJ> DopeGhoti: I got the following msg: update-rc.d: warning: cups stop runlevel arguments (0 1 6) do not match LSB Default-Stop values (1)
[19:08] <IcyJ>  System start/stop links for /etc/init.d/cups already exist.
[19:08] <dakeyras> thanks ;)
[19:08] <DopeGhoti> IcyJ: hmm.
[19:08] <nvme> how do i make sure that a partition can only be mounted RO ?
[19:09] <DopeGhoti> nvme: since root can mount anything, that's hard to do
[19:09] <nvme> DopeGhoti, right i meant through GUI / other programs
[19:09] <DopeGhoti> nvme: if it's in /etc/fstab, with the auto, user, ro options, only root could remount it rw
[19:10] <nvme> DopeGhoti, okay cool
[19:10] <Achoth> Hi. When I tried to uninstall Samba something went wrong so it is neither installed or removed, and I can't install Samba! How do I remove it completely?
[19:10] <Anzo> hello all I am having a busy box error on my 9.10 install. Happened after update. System wont boot, says it gave up waiting for boot device
[19:11] <isolat3dsh33p> !firefox
[19:11] <nvme> DopeGhoti, do you know if i need to have the mount directory pre-made ?
[19:11] <DopeGhoti> Achoth: apt-get --purge remove samba
[19:12] <DopeGhoti> nvme: yes, the mount point must exist before somethign can be mounted to it
[19:12] <Anzo> says /dev/sdb1 doesnt exist... I only have one hd so does that extension mean that its looking to boot from an external
[19:12] <isolat3dsh33p> !firefox -remote http://www.google.com
[19:12] <isolat3dsh33p> =_=
[19:12] <epinky> Achoth: sudo apt-get remove --purge samba-common
[19:13] <kaie> BTW, I had a live-usb-stick with an overlay. I installed the cryptsetup package. This recreated kernel boot/initrd files. afterwards my live stick failed to boot with a panic
[19:13] <erUSUL> Anzo: edit the grub entry for your boot kernel and put the correct root device (you can do it in grub )
[19:13] <isolat3dsh33p> !find iwconfig
[19:14] <IcyJ> No one know why CUPS won't start at boot?
[19:15] <Achoth> epinky: Worked perfectly! Thanks!
[19:15] <graviton> IcyJ: update-rc.d cups defaults
[19:15] <Anzo> erusul i may need your help with that if you wouldnt mind
[19:15] <DopeGhoti> IcyJ: check your logs, maybe it's throwing an error that explains the problem
[19:15] <nvme> DopeGhoti, does ntfs/ntfs-3g specify the same thing in fstab ?
[19:15] <erUSUL> !grub2
[19:15] <IcyJ> gravitron: tried that
[19:15] <IcyJ> DopeGhoti: where would the logs be located?
[19:15] <epinky> !yay | Achoth
[19:15] <DopeGhoti> IcyJ: /var/log/
[19:15] <graviton> IcyJ: And you can start it manually after boot?
[19:15] <manish> i have a dual boot setup with win.xp & xubuntu9.10....i installed a tranformation pack for win.7 in xp,and it replaced some system files which i will now have to repair by cd, will it effect xubuntu in any way?
[19:15] <IcyJ> gravitron: yes
[19:16] <graviton> Well, then I guess there's only the logs left, as DopeGhoti suggested
[19:16] <DopeGhoti> manish: you may have to reinstall GRUB if Windows klobbers the boot sector which it is wont to do.

[19:23] <Ramosa> DopeGhoti, well it's important if its /sda or /sda1 .. my sda is ATA Hitachi and sda1 is my windows vista restore partition.. i can't mess with that one

[19:26] <Guest94458> hii
[19:26] <trism> alazyworkaholic: there is an example here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#User-defined Entries , you should copy the menuentry "Ubuntu*" { } lines and try to set the correct values for the location of your fedora kernel, initrd and root partition
[19:27] <mhoney> Epinky:  you sure?  Dont think that is valid for 9.10 anymore
[19:27] <mod3st> epaphus: Someone else should take this if you're using the installer.  The manual setup instructions here give more detail on the possible ciphers:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemLVMHowto
[19:27] <epinky> mhoney: yes, I'm sure
[19:27] <mhoney> k thx
[19:27] <trism> alazyworkaholic: ignore the echo and cat lines, 40_custom is set up by default to just copy the menuentries you add to grub.cfg
[19:28] <dovik_> screen -r
[19:28] <linxeh> Shogoot: so how did you set up the checkbox etc ?

[19:29] <mod3st> Is there any way to treat *multiple files* as a single block device when doing a loopback mount?
[19:29] <trism> alazyworkaholic: after that just sudo update-grub; and it will be added to grub.cfg. Be aware that in grub 2, hard drive numbers still start at 0, but partitions now start at 1, so if the boot partition of fedora was /dev/sda3, it would be (hd0,3)

[19:31] <epaphus> mod3st, hmm that link describes the encryption done with cryptsetup. I need to know how strong is the ubuntu encryption.. i think its 256? or 128?
[19:31] <tilen> hi i have some problem with dhcp dhcp dont wake up my internet on 9.04 dhcp put up my interner know i install 9.10 and have this problem
[19:31] <colin__> Hi, I've bought a USB network adapter but Ubuntu does not recognzie it. How do I mak Ubuntu recognize my hardware?
[19:31] <mod3st> epaphus: Right, the installer should do it that way, just without showing you :)  I'm not an expert, but I would be very surprised if it weren't AES-128
[19:32] <qwyeth> colin__, what is the make and model of your USB network adapter?
[19:32] <Clueless2> can I use Ubuntu to serve a "router" instead of using the hardware router itself?  is it possible?  If it is, is there a link on how to ?
[19:32] <mod3st> (not an expert on ubuntu's installer; i'm pretty well-versed in crypto)
[19:32] <sebsebseb> colin__: For wireless?
[19:32] <epaphus> mod3st, is 128 better then 256 ?
[19:32] <colin__> To Qwyeth, Engenius EUB 9706. The chip is Ralink based.
[19:33] <colin__> Yes.
[19:33] <mod3st> epaphus: AES-128 is much faster than AES-256.  AES-256 is more secure, but it's not necessary to have that strong
[19:33] <mod3st> really, 256 is overkill
[19:33] <mod3st> no matter *what* you're doing on there :)
[19:33] <colin__> To sebsebseb and qwyeth, I have Ubuntu 9.10.
[19:33] <epaphus> I need to encrypt it using AES 258. not 128
[19:33] <epaphus> :(
[19:33] <qwyeth> colin__, are you Brin dherbe?
[19:33] <ctmjr> Clueless2: not ubuntu per say but linux can be set up as a router google linux as a router should give you something
[19:34] <sebsebseb> colin__: Not all hardware just works on Ubuntu, because of lack of manufacture support.  It might just work in another distro though.  It also might work in a previous version of Ubuntu, because certain hardware that used to just work in 9.04, doesn't in 9.10.  Also you might be able to figure out how to configure it and get it working, but for new users this won't be easy.
[19:34] <sebsebseb> !wireless |  colin__
[19:34] <Clueless2> ctmjr ..thanks for your input.  I'll do that right now
[19:34] <mod3st> epaphus: You can, you just have to manually set up using the instructions provided.  AFAIK, the installer won't let you choose.  Is there a reason why you need AES-256?
[19:34] <epaphus> mod3st, according to this http://www.cjlinux.com/system/installation/how-to-install-ubuntu-with-an-encrypted-file-system.html  it is 256 AES
[19:34] <colin__> To qwyeth. Yes. I posted a message on ubuntu forums, but I founded my drivers but don't know how to install them so Ubuntu could recognize my hardware.
[19:35] <Besogon> What's the hell with ubottu...( How can I make loval repository?
[19:35] <mod3st> epaphus: So I'm wrong!  Thanks for double-checking.
[19:35] <DopeGhoti> Basso: apt-mirror :)
[19:35] <qwyeth> colin__, you might have a hard time with this device.  It's very new, and there isn't a lot of information about it available.  I'll dig for a bit and see if I can find anything useful; I wish you luck.

[19:36] <ctmjr> sebsebseb: the bot is lagging pretty bad might have something to do with the problems freenode is having
[19:36] <xrandr> !lag
[19:36] <sebsebseb> ctmjr: it said that the bot left
[19:36] <colin__> Thank you  very much. Just another question. I was just wondering if it was possible to make Ubuntu recogzine any Ralink based devices?
[19:37] <sebsebseb> colin__: depends on the device
[19:37] <sebsebseb> I guess
[19:37] <Pici> Please give the bot a few minutes to sync before requesting factoids.
[19:37] <qwyeth> colin__, there are plenty of ralink chipset devices that work with ubuntu...
[19:37] <ctmjr> sebsebseb: oh ok i turned off join/parts do to all the netsplits
[19:37] <mod3st> colin__: last time I checked, support was pretty good for normal stuff (802.11b/g)
[19:37] <raf_> hola
[19:37] <plustax> Can someone help me get my remote desktop working
[19:37] <plustax> it says it's only available for local connection
[19:38]  * xrandr mourns in silent contemplation the loss of ubottu :)
[19:38] <plustax> But I want to have a friend from quite out of the area get into it.
[19:38] <sebsebseb> ctmjr: oh ok,  well yes it will flood with peoples name when they leave or re join, but  it could be useful to see that, so you know if things are working properly or not
[19:38] <colin__> That's exactly what I have. A EUB 9706 wireless N USB adapter, Ralink based chip (802.11 b/g/n)
[19:39] <jose__> join #mapserv
[19:39] <qwyeth> colin__,  this device isn't a normal wireless adapter...  it's designed to make configuration in windows easy; it seems that when you push the button to activate it, it's supposed to pop up something in windows that circumvents typical configuration steps
[19:39] <qwyeth> that might mean that without the full-fledged windows driver you're hosed
[19:39] <sebsebseb> qwyeth: so he trys Ndiswrapper ?
[19:39] <alazyworkaholic> trism: thanks a lot for your help, but I don't know how/where to get the correct lines for root=UUID=(bunch of numbers) for the Fedora install. Any idea?
[19:39] <colin__> I think the button you pushed is supposed to connect to your router.
[19:40] <colin__> or modem.
[19:40] <isolat3dsh33p> !emerald
[19:40] <mod3st> Man, never buy a Drobo.  Hopefully I can save someone else a headache by saying that.
[19:40] <Ace42> do .ko files in /lib/kernel/drivers take precedence over drivers found elsewhere?  If I wipe them, will they get rewritten or rebuilt?  Or if I delete them, will I be in big trouble?
[19:40] <qwyeth> colin__, but it advertises that the button is supposed to also handle encrypted connections.  For that to work there would have to be a way to enter that information from the keyboard
[19:41] <mistergibson> anyone else having trouble with vlc.  Did a fresh install on Karmic and its all screwed up.
[19:41] <colin__> So, it would be a heck of a job to make it work?
[19:41] <sebsebseb> colin__: If it's new enough I guess you can return it, get your money back, and buy a device that is supported properly by Ubuntu
[19:41] <mistergibson> won't even really start, have to dump the proc to quit
[19:41] <mistergibson> err... start properly
[19:41] <riverbird> colin__, i  think there are some general n network support deficincies
[19:41] <colin__> Support deficincies with 9.10?
[19:42] <sebsebseb> colin__: wireless has always been a problem area, for Ubuntu
[19:42] <sebsebseb> ,becasue of lack of manufacture support
[19:42] <riverbird> just the 'n' type networks
[19:42] <crypt-00> hi im getting this error when trying to play *any* video file  with VLC "Streaming / Transcoding failed: VLC could not open the encoder."
[19:43] <colin__> So, with any other usb adapter, there is a risk I could get problems?
[19:43] <qwyeth> I'm betting on yes.
[19:43] <riverbird> colin__, what are you trying to do?  just have wifi or ..??
[19:43] <jelly-bean1> is emerald part of compiz?
[19:43] <colin__> Yeah. My computer is old and does not have a wifi card. I just want to get wireless internet on my laptop.
[19:43] <The_Toxic_Mite> jelly-bean1: Emerald is a window decorator, and isn't part of Compiz AFAIK
[19:44] <sebsebseb> colin__: oh right
[19:44] <trism> alazyworkaholic: you can use sudo blkid /dev/sda3 (whatever the name of the partition with fedora root is) to get the UUID
[19:44] <qwyeth> colin__, there are lots and lots of wireless dongles that Just Work in 9.10..  if you buy another you'll probably be fine
[19:44] <insm0d> hey guys, quick queston about setting drive order
[19:44] <riverbird> colin__, how about a pc card?  i have an old machine with a d-ling gwl-650.  works good
[19:44] <qwyeth> but it wouldn't hurt to look it up first
[19:44] <sebsebseb> colin__: buy something that is supported and you will be ok, can I use the bot yet hmm
[19:44] <sebsebseb> !hardware |  colin__
[19:44] <xrandr> !lag
[19:44] <dovik____> hey peeps
[19:45] <qwyeth> Heck, I've even plugged in WWAN cards and had them Just Work.  Not even Windows can do that.
[19:45] <trism> alazyworkaholic: you could also just try root=/dev/sda3 (again whatever the correct partition is)
[19:45] <colin__> Do you happen to know a usb adapter that would work with 9.10 or a website with the compatible hardware?
[19:45] <erUSUL> !hcl
[19:45] <zilla1> I want to copy my linux install, to another drive, as a backup. installed packages, files, the whole deal. can i just create an image of the partition (install is in a single partition) and copy it?
[19:45] <sebsebseb> colin__: also you can try the windows driver in Ndiswrapper or something
[19:45] <riverbird> my d-link gwl-650 just works
[19:45] <colin__> I tried.
[19:45]  * erUSUL where's the bot?
[19:45] <colin__> But It does not detect the hardware.
[19:46] <zilla1> colin__: yeah, try the windows ndiswrapper
[19:46] <deeperror> When clicking Applications menu there is nothing that pops up.  However, places and system are there and do have menu items.  Any clues how to restore the applications menu or rebuild it ?
[19:46] <trism> erUSUL: keeps getting disconnected with Excess Flood
[19:46] <zilla1> colin__: lspci doesn't list it?
[19:46] <sebsebseb> colin__: the bot was going to give links to thatk ind of info, but  it's not here at the moment,  when it is back though.  you can pm it with !hardware for supported hardware info,  and !wireless for the wireless link.  oh and someone can probably just provide those links actsualley
[19:46] <erUSUL> trism: k; thx
[19:46] <insm0d> how would I go about setting the hard drive detection order for the kernel?
[19:46] <Pici> We're looking into the bot issue.
[19:46] <colin__> !hardware
[19:47] <zilla1> huh?
[19:47] <colin__> Thanks to all of you for help.

[19:48] <dneary> Hi all
[19:48] <isolat3dsh33p> ubottu is dead? D:
[19:48] <sebsebseb> riverbird: thanks :)
[19:48] <dneary> Long-time Ubuntu user, I've been upgrading rather than reinstalling for years
[19:48] <epaphus> Hello, what file in ubuntu can confirm to me if AES 128 or AES 256 bits was used to encrypt my filesystem? (done on karmic with the ubuntu alternate cd).
[19:48]  * xrandr mourns the loss of ubottu
[19:49] <dneary> Now I have some performance issues (among other things) and I'd like to selectively restore some of the distro defaults to see if that improves things
[19:49] <dneary> First thin I want to do is revert to the distro default panel set-up
[19:49] <alazyworkaholic> Ok, thanks, I also just found it now by mounting the filesystem from places. Showed up as /media/[UUID] I looked inside that I changed the linux /boot/vmlinz line to match the vmlinz file in Fedora's boot directory, & I think the last thing I need now is to know what to do about the initrd /boot/initrd.img... line. There's no initrd.img file in /boot for fedora.
[19:50] <sebsebseb> !ping
[19:50] <dneary> I've made very few changes to the panel, so I don't mind throwing the various launchers & panel applets away
[19:50] <zilla1> can i create an image of my boot partition while running? or will that lead to great badness?
[19:50] <alazyworkaholic> trice: sorry, forgot to add the nick. Ok, thanks, I also just found it now by mounting the filesystem from places. Showed up as /media/[UUID] I looked inside that I changed the linux /boot/vmlinz line to match the vmlinz file in Fedora's boot directory, & I think the last thing I need now is to know what to do about the initrd /boot/initrd.img... line.

[19:50] <JBLoudG20|lap> I have a headless server, that has X support for legit applications. I had a user download opera, and is downloading files from megaupload and rapidshare. How can I prevent this from happening? I should add, I'm not the 'admin' we are all graduate students, but I am the one that will get blamed if things go wrong
[19:50] <sebsebseb> dneary: Ok what do you want to do?
[19:51] <dneary> sebsebseb, I would like to restore the distribution default theme & panel
[19:51] <sebsebseb> !panel |  dneary
[19:51] <trism> alazyworkaholic: surprised there isn't an initrd there...initrd strickly necessary, but the kernel modules required to access your hard drives usually need to be compiled into the kernel if you don't use an initrd...hmm

[19:53] <erUSUL> insm0d: do not think is possible. suffle the sata cables in the motherboard
[19:53] <epaphus> erUSUL, # /boot was on /dev/sda5 during installation

[19:55] <drcsoldan> help! pls!
[19:56] <riverbird> noelito, !ask
[19:56] <alazyworkaholic> trism: maybe it only appears after 1st boot, like folders after adding a user?? There are these folders: efi, grub, lost+found ; & these files: config-<IP_ADDRESS>-127.fc12.x86_64, elf-memtest86+-4.00 initramfs-<IP_ADDRESS>-127.fc12.x86_64.img, memtest86+-4.00 System.map-<IP_ADDRESS>-127.fc12.x86_64, vmlinz-<IP_ADDRESS>-127.fc12.x86_64 ; So what should I do about the initrd line? Eliminate it?
[19:56] <insm0d> erUSUL, forgot about that.  That may work.  Off to figure out which module provides scsi emulation and disable it.  Thanks for the help

[19:57] <trism> alazyworkaholic: you want initramfs I beleve
[19:57] <noelito> I am trying to use autofs to mount a win XP share in Ubuntu.
[19:57] <erUSUL> drcsoldan: gnome-keyring-daemon ?
[19:57] <guntbert> nine_: if its bash code you might better ask in #bash

[19:57] <alazyworkaholic> trism: oh, so the initramfs...img file should take the place of the initrd...img file? Two names for basically the same thing?
[19:57] <cpare_> thanks!
[19:58] <erUSUL> insm0d: the scasi emulation is done by the driver itself. your chance is to make the pata driver load before the sata driver
[19:58] <epaphus> Guys anybody know??  what file in ubuntu can confirm to me if AES 128 or AES 256 bits was used to encrypt my filesystem? (done on karmic with the ubuntu alternate cd).
[19:58] <guntbert> nine_: have fun :)
[19:58] <trism> alazyworkaholic: yeah, initrd stands for initial ram disk
[19:58] <cpare_> epinky - Thanks1
[19:58] <epinky> cpare_: you're welcome :)
[19:58] <erUSUL> insm0d: in my case i would have to try to make pata_ali load before ahci
[19:58] <trism> alazyworkaholic: so, initramfs (initial ram file system) would make sense to me

[20:04] <wvd> ReactOS?
[20:04] <wvd> Or is that something different.

[20:07] <DopeGhoti> jmyers: er, PC
[20:08] <al_> is there a way to get into the gui booting from the cd?

[20:08] <jmyers> DopeGhoti: actually, I take that back.  I wiped WinXP last night when I formatted the drive to ext3. :)
[20:08] <docmax> which player are you using when doubleclicking an MP3 file?
[20:09] <DopeGhoti> jmyers: Advantage of virtualization: not having to reboot the _real_ operating system :)

[20:09] <jmyers> DopeGhoti: I had ubuntu in a virtual box on windows for the longest, I just decided to bite the bullet and learn the real OS anyways.  Sick of windows flakey unstable garbage anyway.
[20:09] <Xeli> Hello! I'm trying to cross compile dnsmasq, but i run into a header problem, dnsmasq has the type "HEADER" and my ubuntu install has it, but the target of my crosscompiler (android) doesn't could anyone point me to the header where this type should be defined? it's kinda hard to google..
[20:10] <DopeGhoti> jmyers: And thus, you were Enlightened ;)
[20:11] <julio> hi there, is it possible to have 2 keyboard layouts?
[20:11] <jmyers> DopeGhoti: problem is, I may have made the leap too soon.  Struggling to get all my hardware running just so-so.  Expecially on this AMD 64 architecture.  Seems like howto's and packages are doubly hard to find and install for this architecture. :(
[20:11] <julio> i'm on a laptop and would like to use it's own keyboard in latam and a usb one in english
[20:12] <jmyers> DopeGhoti: I've been trying to get my ATI Radeon HD 4850 to work right for 3 days. :/
[20:12] <zilla1> jmyers: try it on IA64
[20:12] <jmyers> zilla1: try what on IA64?
[20:12] <xine> how can i access ext 4 from win 7?
[20:12] <zilla1> jmyers: i mean, its even harder to get things working on itanium
[20:13] <jmyers> zilla1: OH, yeah.  No thanks.  Struggling plenty enough as it is.
[20:13] <drcsoldan> ok, mounting the windows drive works with sudo mount etc., but not with gnome. whats the problem? (error: "authentication is required")
[20:13] <DopeGhoti> jmyers: mm, ATI/AMD video card support has been somewhat lacking :/
[20:13] <jmyers> zilla1: got a $200 video card I can't use. :P
[20:13] <agntdrake> does anyone know how to make the various drives visible as /dev devices in the ubuntu installation environment?
[20:14] <insm0d> julio, It is possible to get different keyboard layouts running on different keyboards.  In the past it involved editing your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file but I think it's now done with HAL.  Try searching for 'keyboard layout hal'
[20:14] <jmyers> DopeGhoti: it's crazy.  When I run sh on the driver, and use the --buildandinstallpkg Ubuntu/karmic switch on it, it SORTA works.
[20:15] <julio> insm0d, ok i'll google it out
[20:15] <julio> thanks
[20:15] <jmyers> DopeGhoti: BUT, I gotta run it in the 2.6.31-14 grub option, and not the 2.6.31-16 option, and it accelleration is SOOOOO SLOW.  Windows chop and stuff when I try and move them.  The only advantage is I can set the resolution, and it doesn't run off the edges of my hdtv like it does with the standard video drivers
[20:15] <xpololz> Hi, i was working with some c source file and runned it in terminal on gedit, i made a loop that runned for ever and in attempt to stop the program from running i clicked ctrl+c, now i cant open the file in gedit. What to do? :s dont wanna rewrite all the code :(
[20:16] <blizzkid> Any idea on how to control the "num lock" led in karmic?
[20:16] <oCean_> agntdrake: what?
[20:16] <agntdrake> ocean_:  I just want to be able to access the /dev devices in a terminal
[20:17] <isolat3dsh33p> blizzkid: What's wrong with your led?
[20:17] <agntdrake> I think they're not mounted yet
[20:17] <oCean_> !mount | agntdrake
[20:17] <isolat3dsh33p> xpololz: When you clicked the file, does anything happen?
[20:17] <agntdrake> sorry, I shouldn't have said "mount"
[20:17] <agntdrake> I meant visible
[20:18] <agntdrake> I don't need to actually mount the devices
[20:18] <agntdrake> err partitions
[20:18] <blizzkid> isolat3dsh33p: nothing wrong, I want to test http://simo.h.mattila.googlepages.com/led-notification but don't find correct files in /proc/acpi
[20:18] <agntdrake> on the devices
[20:18] <Jamed> agntdrake: so the don't appear when you do "sudo fdisk -l"?
[20:18] <oCean_> agntdrake: to *access* the devices, you have to mount them. They are always visible when you do "ls /dev/sd*"
[20:18] <oCean_> agntdrake: a try "sudo fdisk -l"
[20:18] <insm0d> agntdrake, what do you need done?
[20:18] <xpololz> isolat3dsh33p: if i open it with gedit.. gedit has not been able to detect the character coding. Please check that you are not trying to open a binary file. Select a character coding from the menu and try again
[20:19] <agntdrake> nm.. I didn't realize that installer started up as the ubuntu user, and not root
[20:19] <oCean_> !afk | jmyersAway
[20:19] <agntdrake> so when I typed "fdisk -l" it didn't return anything.  "ntfsresize" would say "permission denied" which should have clued me in
[20:20] <isolat3dsh33p> xpololz: Are you sure that's the source file?
[20:20] <guntbert> agntdrake: you need sudo fdisk -l
[20:20] <xpololz> isolat3dsh33p: 100% sure
[20:20] <agntdrake> guntbert:  yes, I see that now
[20:20] <agntdrake> yay for not typing 'whoami'
[20:20] <riverbird> al_, what cd version do you have?
[20:20] <trijntje> Using Evolution with gmail: I didnt select 'leave messages on server', but I can still see all mesages in gmail.com. Did I do something wrong?
[20:20] <al_> why does my live cd take me to the command line??
[20:20] <guntbert> xpololz: type file <yoursourcefile>
[20:20] <al_> riverbird: umm, 9.04
[20:20] <al_> and tried Kubuntu too
[20:21] <DopeGhoti> al_: anything unusual in th elogs?
[20:21] <riverbird> i386.alt? or ..?
[20:21] <xpololz> guntbert: i get up following: ab.c: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.15, not stripped
[20:21] <michi__> hi
[20:21] <al_> DopeGhoti: whats the command to binrg tht up?
[20:22] <riverbird> al_, are you trying to do a new install with a live cd? or .. ??
[20:22] <mordof> got my guitar hooked up to my line in..  anyone able to help getting audacity (or the default sound recorder for that matter) to pick it up for recording?
[20:22] <mr_engineer> should i trust this (to install kernel 2.6.32-x) http://www.ramoonus.nl/2009/12/03/linux-kernel-2-6-32-installation-guide-for-ubuntu-linux/
[20:22] <guntbert> xpololz: that is defintely no source file - it an executable file
[20:22] <DopeGhoti> al_: ls /var/logs/  then less /var/log/$logfile
[20:22] <al_> DopeGhoti: all i want to do is test the sound output on this pc. can I do that from the command line of the live cd?
[20:22] <mordof> i can't seem to get any input at all
[20:22] <mr_engineer> I just dont want to get my graphics ***** up again
[20:22] <oCean_> trijntje: in settings @gmail, there's also an option like "leave copy in gmail's inbox"
[20:22] <insm0d> xpololz, you are trying to open up a program file.  It's binary format so you really can't look at it or edit it with a text editor.  You might be after a hex editor, but be careful what you do
[20:22] <michi__> im running the latest live dvd and miss grub. i only have grub-setup, grub-install and a bunch of others i have no clue about
[20:22] <xpololz> guntbert: yeah i could see that :S but how did it become an executable and how do i get it "back" ? :S
[20:22] <insm0d> al_
[20:22] <DopeGhoti> al_: hmm, you could try cat /path/to/some/mp3 > /dev/dsp
[20:23] <epinky> !grub2 | michi__
[20:23] <isolat3dsh33p> blizzkid: I have /proc/acpi :/
[20:23] <michi__> oh ffs
[20:23] <michi__> which is the latest version running grub1?
[20:23] <michi__> thanks for the info btw?
[20:23] <isolat3dsh33p> xpololz: Sorry, can't help you :(
[20:23] <SwedeMike> michi__: 9.04
[20:23] <xpololz> It was a source file not an executable, until i clicked ctrl+c in terminal while it was running. Now i cant open it because gedit think its an exe
[20:23] <trijntje> oCean_, thanks a lot, I didnt think to look there
[20:23] <michi__> SwedeMike, thanks a lot!
[20:24] <xpololz> thanks for trying anyways
[20:24] <guntbert> xpololz: I only can guess: maybe you had a type in you compile statement? and no way to get that back - but look for a backup file with ls -al in that directory
[20:24] <chiggavelli> does anybody can help me whit 9.10 i have  4GB of ram and just today i understood that box sees just 3Gb
[20:24] <blizzkid> isolat3dsh33p: I have it too, but not the files to control the led
[20:24] <insm0d> al_, maybe.  Try running sudo alsaconfig and try looking for alsaplayer or some sort of text mode multimedia player.  You might be able to send a file to the sound device but it sounds horrid
[20:24] <guntbert> *typo
[20:24] <oCean_> trijntje: on most popservers you will not have that option. Google went the extra stretch :)
[20:24] <al_> is there no wav or similar on live cd?
[20:24] <xpololz> guntbert: thanks, i will try that
[20:24] <isolat3dsh33p> blizzkid: You might had to create one :/
[20:24] <starcannon> What is the easiest way to create a new *default* fstab file? note, there is no backup of the original available.
[20:24] <guntbert> xpololz: Good luck :-)
[20:25] <trijntje> oCean_, I thought discarding messages after download was default on pop?
[20:25] <chiggavelli> anybody good whit enabling 4gb ram?
[20:25] <eternaljoy> is 9.10 the latest version?
[20:25] <mr_engineer> can somebody recommend me a way to install the linux kernel 2.6.32?
[20:25] <trijntje> eternaljoy, yes
[20:25] <oCean_> trijntje: indeed
[20:25] <badipod> eternaljoy: Yup
[20:25] <DopeGhoti> starcannon: pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l and I can try to write you an fstab
[20:25] <trijntje> chiggavelli, yes, try 64 bit
[20:25] <eternaljoy> ok thanks
[20:25] <isolat3dsh33p> blizzkid: It's just a maybe D:
[20:25] <DopeGhoti> starcannon: you'll need to know the mount points of your partitions though if yo uhave many
[20:26] <eternaljoy> is myth tv in the distros?
[20:26] <michi__> SwedeMike, ehrm, is 9.04 still available for download somewhere?
[20:26] <SwedeMike> michi__: yes.
[20:26] <starcannon> DopeGhoti I know the mount points, I don't have the fdisk -l output available at this moment though, but I have it memorized
[20:26] <epinky> starcannon: just boot LiveCD, and copy /etc/fstab.pre-uuid
[20:26] <trijntje> oCean_, as long as I can choose (and find the option) i'm happy ;)
[20:26] <starcannon> epinky ah really?
[20:26] <chiggavelli> trijntje, dont want to use not all software suport it
[20:27] <eternaljoy> !mythtv
[20:27] <starcannon> epinky that'll rebuild it?
[20:27] <chiggavelli> is there another trick to use 32 bit whit 4GB?
[20:27] <chiggavelli> trijntje,
[20:27] <michi__> SwedeMike: i can only find 8.04, a hint would save my day
[20:27] <xpololz> guntbert: Awesome man!! i got it :D
[20:27] <trijntje> chiggavelli, it is impossible to use 4 gb RAM without 64 bit i'm afraid ;)
[20:27] <insm0d> starcannon, Format is as follows: $DEVICE $MOUNT_POINT $FILE_SYSTEM $OPTIONS $DUMP $PASS
[20:27] <guntbert> xpololz: glad it worked :-)
[20:27] <epinky> starcannon: in my very personal case fstab.pre-uuid of LiveCD and fstab installed are the same :)
[20:27] <chiggavelli> To read more about PAE, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension
[20:27] <chiggavelli> does this one not helps?
[20:27] <al_> what about starting the windows gui from the command line?
[20:28] <michi__> nevermind, got it
[20:28] <Flannel> al_: Windows GUI?
[20:28] <DopeGhoti> al_: try /etc/init.d/gdm start
[20:28] <DopeGhoti> al_: failing that, startx
[20:28] <al_> well bugger me, this time it started the windows
[20:28] <eternaljoy> SwedeMike, hello
[20:28] <xpololz> guntbert: thanks :) Guess ill find another way to terminate a process when working like this
[20:28] <chiggavelli> trijntje,  so how to upgrade from 32 bit to 64bit whitout taking big effect for everything now installed?
[20:28] <al_> oddd
[20:28] <DopeGhoti> al_: (for the record, it's "the X server", not "the Windows GUI" ;)
[20:28] <starcannon> epinky: ah i see, I could just copy the contents of fstab.pre-uuid into fstab
[20:28] <al_> DopeGhoti: er, ta. i wasnt sure of the correct terminology :_)
[20:29] <insm0d> chiggavelli, you just need a PAE enabled kernel.  I know there is one in the repos.
[20:29] <trijntje> chiggavelli, I dont think thats possible, but ask the channel to be sure
[20:29] <studentz> Hi there I have problems with Xorg 2.6.31-16-generic X86 Karmic. I need some help
[20:29] <DopeGhoti> al_: no problem. :)
[20:29] <gogeta> well trll us your problems
[20:29] <guntbert> xpololz: no - have a look at the command line when invoking gedit - you will most likely get you source overwritten again oif you don't change that
[20:29] <chiggavelli> insm0d, can u give me a link
[20:29] <guntbert> *if
[20:29] <starcannon> insm0d nod, thanks, I'm hoping not to build one from scratch, I always have to mess around getting permissions right afterwards
[20:30] <gogeta> starcannon: you can use the mini iso to build your own ubuntu using apt
[20:30] <insm0d> http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-linux-4gb-ram-limitation-solution/
[20:30] <xpololz> guntbert: Will do :)
[20:30] <studentz> After I login Xorg use 99% of CPU . I Had to log out and login back to use my laptop please help me
[20:31] <starcannon> gogeta I'm not really trying to build my own distro, just restore a hosed up fstab in the easiest manner possible
[20:31] <flavetius1> maooooooooooooooo
[20:31] <Flannel> insm0d: That page is out of date.  There is now a generic kernel with PAE
[20:31] <al_> well looks like sound on this pc is poked!
[20:31] <manish> i can't access my other drives from thunar file manager in xubuntu,as in, they are not present in the left window-pane...but if i open the file from a media player,they are.any solution?
[20:31] <starcannon> gogeta the computer is actually about 1700 miles away, and everything is being passed over the phone and through pastebin, the connection is terrible so remote desktop is not an option(tried already)
[20:32] <Flannel> chiggavelli: You can't upgrade to 64bit (it's a reinstall), but you can install a PAE kernel, linux-generic-pae
[20:32] <erUSUL> !info linux-generic-pae
[20:32] <JumboJellyfish> question: I just installed kubuntu (8.04) on a shuttle PC... I get to the log in screen, but when I enter my username/password and try to login, the monitor goes black (says no signal) and then returns to the login screen!
[20:32] <studentz> After I Log in Xorg use 99% of my CPU. I cannot do anything with my laptop
[20:32] <chiggavelli> sudo apt-get install linux-server linux-headers-server linux-restricted-modules-server

[20:33] <mr_engineer> when is kernel 2.6.32 going to be used by default?
[20:33] <Flannel> chiggavelli: no, linux-generic-pae
[20:33] <gh0st> Hello everyone, i have a server install (9.10) running on one hard drive with 2 partitions, one for OS, the other for storage. i have SSH access, and was wondering what is the command to list all partitions so i can mount it. eventually, id like to add it to fstab so it auto-mounts. Sorry for the noob question, but i kind of need a little bit of hand-holding on this one.
[20:33] <erUSUL> JumboJellyfish: boot into recovery mode and use the fix Xserver option (or if you end up in a root console run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg' )
[20:33] <guntbert> gh0st: sudo fdisk -l
[20:33] <erUSUL> gh0st: sudo fdisk -l
[20:33] <Flannel> mr_engineer: Lucid
[20:33] <JumboJellyfish> erUSUL, thanks i shall go try
[20:34] <mr_engineer> oh my..
[20:34] <manish> quick question-i can't access my other drives from thunar file manager in xubuntu,as in, they are not present in the left window-pane...but if i open the file from a media player,they are.any solution?
[20:34] <starcannon> insm0d if I end up rebuilding from scratch, I can use dev locations instead of uuid if I choose right? I know I can use blkid to find uuid but its a bit of a pain because I am having to explain a lot of this "what to do" over the phone
[20:34] <riverbird> mr_engineer, i think its already in 10.04

[20:34] <erUSUL> !virtualizers > jmyers
[20:34] <jmyers> what was that ! command again for virtualization?
[20:35] <mr_engineer> Flannel, would you be so kind as to tell me if it is recommendable to install this kernel (because of the pulseaudio thing) and if there is a special guide i should follow?
[20:35] <gh0st> the proper mount syntax then would be (after mkdir)   sudo mount /dev/sda2 /media/mountpoint?
[20:35] <jmyers> erUSUL: thankya

[20:38] <UnC00l> And one more thing. Since I'm running Xubuntu through Windows 7, I took like 30 gb from one of my harddrives. But now, in Xubuntu. Can I access the other drives in Windows? With like all my pictures, videos and such?
[20:38] <mr_engineer> jmyers, oh nvm
[20:38] <starcannon> jmyers I recommend getting the latest from their website
[20:38] <jmyers> mr_engineer: Pain in the Arse
[20:38] <trijntje> philipp_, conky, but youll have to find or recreate the config file
[20:38] <mr_engineer> thanks anyway
[20:38] <jmyers> starcannon: yeah, just checked synaptic, no luck.

[20:40] <Anonymous2> from what i heard nvidia
[20:40] <BitEncrypt> I know
[20:40] <Anonymous2> + ubuntu = yuck
[20:40] <oCean_> gh0st: nope, fdisk -l lists all partitions
[20:40] <guntbert> jmyers: both are not acceptable here
[20:40] <jmyers> and by the way, Google Chrome for Linux OWNS Firefox. :)
[20:40] <ScoobyDoo> clear
[20:40] <vs93taras> okay guys
[20:40] <starcannon> BitEncrypt, I'm looking through now brb
[20:40] <sshc> BitEncrypt: it used to be ~/.Trash, but I heard it might have been changed
[20:40] <ScoobyDoo> ops
[20:40] <erUSUL> gh0st: if you want to mount it use "-t auto"
[20:40] <jmyers> guntbert: well my apologies if I offended you.
[20:40] <epaphus> Hey guys, i just got 9.10 karmic.. but i did apt-get install thunderbird and it installed thunderbird 2.. how do I get 3?
[20:40] <ScoobyDoo> I'm trying to install ubuntu via the disc on a old computer with windows 98 on it, But it just hangs and says "boot from ATAI cdrom:"
[20:40] <erUSUL> sshc: BitEncrypt ~/.local/share/Trash/
[20:40] <vs93taras> has anyone had a problem with their mouse and keyboard freezing after a random amount of time?
[20:41] <sshc> BitEncrypt: the location of trash is actually specific to gnome
[20:41] <oCean_> gh0st: ah, now I see what you were asking :)
[20:41] <manish> hello ppl, is there any way to access the other drives in thuran file manager...they're not shown.
[20:41] <guntbert> BitEncrypt: The location of Trash has changed since 8.04, it is now located in ~/.local/share/Trash | Looking for the trash in previous versions: ~/.Trash
[20:41] <sshc> BitEncrypt: ~/.local/share/Trash/
[20:41] <erUSUL> ScoobyDoo: hardware specs ?
[20:41] <BitEncrypt> thx
[20:41] <Anonymous2> manish: not that i am aware of right not
[20:41] <Anonymous2> whats wrong with the standard places menu
[20:41] <gh0st> erUSUL: mount is still complaining that i need to specify the filesystem. using this syntax:      sudo mount -t auto /dev/sda2 /media/Storage
[20:41] <jmyersAway> suh WEET.  Virtualbox has a AMD 64 bit ready to go!  luvit already
[20:41] <Jamed> Anonymous2: i heard nvidia cards work well in ubuntu or linux in general. never had any problems also
[20:42] <sshc> BitEncrypt: /bin/rm (or rm from the terminal) removes permanently, and thus many people don't like to use it
[20:42] <manish> Anonymous2:can u tellme ANY way.....i'm a newbie :)
[20:42] <ScoobyDoo> erUSUL: New to cocking about with computer hardware, All I can remember is the RAM is 256MB
[20:42] <riverbird> ScoobyDoo, whats you ram?
[20:42] <vs93taras> does anyone know anything about the mouse and keyboard freezing up?
[20:42] <sshc> BitEncrypt: if you're using a terminal, you should always move (mv) things into whichever trash directory you have set up
[20:42] <Anonymous2> well you run ubuntu right manish
[20:42] <erUSUL> ScoobyDoo: i think that the livecd needs more ram than that. you maybe have to try with xubuntu via an alternatecd install
[20:42] <jmyersAway> vs93taras: this has little to do with linux, but do you have overheating issues in your case?  Flakey things like that can often mean overheating issues.
[20:43] <starcannon> BitEncrypt, /home/username/.local/share/Trash
[20:43] <guntbert> jmyers: its not so much my personal feelings as the policy of this channel: to keep it family friendly
[20:43] <oCean_> gh0st: are you sure there is a filesystem on /dev/sda2?
[20:43] <BitEncrypt> got it thx
[20:43] <usr13> vs93taras: Yes, and it's almost always been memory related.  The last was one were only the keyboard word freeze, and even though the memory tested ok, I replaced it, (and a weak cmos battery), and problem solved.
[20:43] <erUSUL> ScoobyDoo: alternate is a text mode intall (like the first half of WinXP install)
[20:43] <ScoobyDoo> erUSUL: Ah ok, Just just burn the xubuntu iso to a disc? nothing special?
[20:43] <help_me_please> does anyone know what "target file system doesn't have /sbin/init" ?
[20:43] <oCean_> gh0st: if it lists "Linux" it is probably ext3 of maybe even ext4
[20:43] <Anonymous2> jamed: yea, but yea in general they work just fine i mean it's all based on GRAM addressing but, some have had some issues but it's common for anything
[20:43] <erUSUL> ScoobyDoo: yes the alternate one
[20:43] <starcannon> guntbert, sorry just saw you answered already
[20:43] <riverbird> ScoobyDoo, ditto erUSUL , but i think the ubuntu alternate will work too
[20:43] <gh0st> let me triple-check
[20:43] <vs93taras> jmyersAway: that would explain the fan going crazy when it happens
[20:44] <oCean_> gh0st: if you want, you can pastebin the fdisk -l output
[20:44] <ScoobyDoo> erUSUL: alternate one?
[20:44] <guntbert> starcannon: np - better two than none :-)
[20:44] <manish> Anonymous2: if i have to access any file on the other drives, how do i do that?.....dolphin has that feature....but its pretty heavy,and i'm guessing thuran won't take kindly to that
[20:44] <usr13> help_me_please: Is this a trivia question?
[20:44] <gh0st> patebin'ing now
[20:44] <BitEncrypt> the icon says i have trash in folder. when i checked nothin there.
[20:44] <Anonymous2> manish: well running ubuntu right?
[20:44] <manish> Xubuntu
[20:44] <jmyersAway> vs93taras: usr13 also brings up an option.  Memory chips can sometimes flake out, or overheat and cause the problems too.  Do you have more than 1 memory chip installed?  Or did you change anything inside the case lately like upgrade a video card?
[20:44] <Anonymous2> ahh
[20:44] <erUSUL> ScoobyDoo: there are two types of CD's the desktop and the alternate
[20:44] <Jamed> Anonymous2: yeah, theres always some issues with some hardware, but my ati experience in linux was much worse than nvidia
[20:44] <Anonymous2> something i have to try
[20:45] <erUSUL> ScoobyDoo: for low memory systems use the alternate cd
[20:45] <jmyers> Anonymous2: um, don't get me started on trying to get my ATI 4850 going on Karmic AMD64. :P
[20:45] <vs93taras> jmyers: i've tried every combo of my 4 mem chips
[20:45] <gh0st> oCean_: here is the fdisk -l output http://paste.ubuntu.com/342977/
[20:46] <vs93taras> its probably overheating
[20:46] <epaphus> hey guys,how can i install java 6 in ubuntu 9?
[20:46] <robas> good day to all, what is the best partitioning for ubuntu? lets say I have 20 G disk
[20:46] <vs93taras> i'll see if the answer lies in the bios
[20:46] <erUSUL> !java | epaphus
[20:46] <manish> Anonymous2: Xubuntu 9.10....and right now, i'm accessing files through the media player
[20:46] <riverbird> ScoobyDoo, the alternate can install with less ram, though doesn't run 'live'
[20:46] <vs93taras> brb
[20:46] <erUSUL> epaphus: sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre (or jdk)
[20:46] <oCean_> gh0st: /dev/sda2 says extended, that one you cannot mount. The sda5 and sda6 are within the extended partition
[20:46] <epaphus> thanks
[20:46] <wolf_> Люди кто здесь знает Руский
[20:46] <jmyers> vs93taras: take ALL out but 1, if it still does it, try a DIFFERENT single mem chip.  If it STILL does it, then put all your chips back in and install a case fan.  They are cheap (usually less than 10 bucks.  And if that doesn't work, I've been known to rig up an oscilating fan next to my left open case in the floor. ;)
[20:46] <Jamed> !ru | wolf_
[20:46] <robas> wolf Ja.. no
[20:47] <oCean_> gh0st: those you can mount. /dev/sda5 probably as ext3 and sda6 as swap

[20:47] <epaphus> hello what is the best way to install skype??
[20:47] <gh0st> oCean_: what partiton should i be aiming for then? it would be the Largest one, i have hundreds of gigs on it
[20:47] <Jamed> ubottu dead again?
[20:47] <riverbird> ScoobyDoo, i might start w. 8.04
[20:47] <wolfey> does this 'install to usb' gui erase usb disk? or just installs and leaves ntfs data?
[20:48] <jmyers> Jamed: he split off onto another portion of the network
[20:48] <jussio1> Jamed: shell be back soon
[20:48] <studentz> Neeeed help After I login my laptop it's almost freeze.  top shows Xorg uses 99% of my CPU

[20:48] <miha> does this 'install to usb' gui erase usb disk? or just installs and leaves ntfs data?
[20:48] <oCean_> gh0st: yep, that'll probably be /dev/sda5. try "sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt"

[20:48] <robas> wolf shto slucylos?
[20:48] <erUSUL> miha: the former afaik
[20:48] <jmyers> epaphus: did you try skype.com and clicking on downloads to see if they have any linux download options?
[20:48] <miha> erUSUL:  ahh too bad
[20:49] <Anonymous4> anonymous 2 is now anonymous 4
[20:49] <usr13> jmyers: epaphus skype is in repos
[20:49] <manish> Is there any way to access the other drives in thuran file manager...they're not shown, and i can only see them thru open file option in the media players
[20:49] <ScoobyDoo> riverbird: Ah ok, Doesnt matter about the live thing, I want to install in to my drive anyway. I can find the normal Xubuntu but not the alt one
[20:49] <riverbird> miha, it will erase the usb, unless you partition it
[20:49] <wolf_> Люди а как зделать в 9 Убунте класные темы окон

[20:50] <echofish> I have an external ext4 hd. What should I write in fstab to get it rw for everyone?
[20:50] <gh0st> im like breaking my system :(
[20:50] <oCean_> gh0st: just "sudo umount /mnt"
[20:50] <Anonymous4> anyone here recommend a clustering app for my servers
[20:50] <bdfoster_iPhone> !russian | wolf_
[20:50] <Anonymous4> something to cluster with

[20:51] <bdfoster_iPhone> ubottu's down?
[20:51] <jmyers> usr13: it's not showing up in synaptic for me.  Just some skype tools and addons.
[20:51] <oCean_> gh0st: is your large partition on another disk?
[20:51] <erUSUL> echofish: set correct permissions for the folders inside the disk
[20:51] <Jamed> wolf_: please join #ubuntu-ru for russian support
[20:51] <jmyers> epaphus: when I go to skype.com and click the download link, it shows all kinds of options for lots of linux distros.
[20:52] <erUSUL> jmyers: medibuntu repositories has skype
[20:52] <gh0st> it wont let go of the partition now :( output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/342982/   and no, its all on one disk

[20:52] <ScoobyDoo> erUSUL: riverbird: Getting it now, Thanks Alot :-) 50 minutes to wait for the download though :-(
[20:52] <Anonymous4> thanks usr13
[20:52] <erUSUL> echofish: then make all the root folders on the disk belong to a group all users belong or writtable by anyone
[20:52] <Jamed> Anonymous4: archlinux
[20:53] <jmyers> erUSUL: I've only been using linux seriously for a couple weeks now, I haven't gotten around to adding any repositories to my synaptic manager.  Terrified I'll break something before I know how to fix it in terminal. lol
[20:53] <Anonymous4> jamed: that it?
[20:53] <oCean_> gh0st: you are probably *on* the /mnt partion.

[20:53] <gh0st> you were right, it let go now
[20:53] <vs93taras> so what can I do to stop overheating?
[20:54] <epaphus> Is thunderbird3 called Shredder 3 now???
[20:54] <llua> cp -R "copy directories recursively" what do they mean by that?
[20:54] <jmyers> erUSUL: lol, I do need to set this box up to play DVD's.  I gotta sell my 360. :(
[20:54] <mr_engineer> can anybody help me install the new 2.6.32 kernel?
[20:54] <vs93taras> jmyers: if its overheating what can I do?
[20:54] <mr_engineer> i would really appreciate
[20:54] <ardchoille> llua: copy the directory and all directories inside it
[20:54] <erUSUL> echofish: no; ext4 is native linux. the only fs that accept mount time umasks and owner switchs are fs that do not have unix permission support. the kernel fakes them at mount point
[20:54] <Anonymous4> Wolf_: Они хотят, чтобы вы присоединились скандируют # Ubuntu-RU причинить вам говорить русский, и мы не понимаем
[20:54] <wolf_> Спасибо люди (-:
[20:55] <llua> ardchoille, ty
[20:55] <erUSUL> jmyers: :/
[20:55] <bastidrazor> llua: copy everything in that directory.. all sub directories everything.
[20:55] <oCean_> gh0st: what was your initial pastebin again? the fdisk output?
[20:55] <oCean_> gh0st: wait  -have it
[20:55] <gh0st> oCean_: if it is an NTFS partition (not sure if it is) since its a server install, so i need ntfs-utils?   re-pastebin'ing fdisk
[20:55] <robas> Anyone? 20Gb hard disk. What would be the best partition for it? and with what?  planning to have 10 for home.
[20:55] <oCean_> gh0st: your /dev/sda1 is pretty large partition.
[20:55] <jmyers> erUSUL: NICE, now I see why it's not in my synaptic manager too.  Activated nvidia driver for video card and was asked to rebooted. now all i get is a login in the shell.  That is not all too hard. You could try yourself: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab
[20:58] <erUSUL> echofish: no users is best. then make sure all users are in it. or just make all folder read/writtable by anyone
[20:58] <fogrider> I got an issue with ubuntu desktop 9.10    .... Activated nvidia driver for video card and was asked to rebooted. now all i get is a login in the shell. And it's flashing so i can't even login.
[20:58] <Anonymous4> wolf_:Спасибо, пренебрежение последнее сообщение
[20:58] <oCean_> gh0st: since it's a linux filesystem, you have nothing to worry about the advanced options. This is just a straigtforward entry in /etc/fstab.
[20:59] <ctmjr> llua: in short it means repeat until it is done or in the cp command copy everything
[20:59] <echofish> erUSUL: how?
[20:59] <riverbird> mr_ yup.  ?? why not?  are you running 9.10 now?
[20:59] <gh0st> oCean_: thanks for the link and all the help, appreciate your patience, im going to go read that page, if i bump into problems, i'll come back on, but hopefully, i'll succeed first try. thanks again
[21:00] <wolf_> yes 9.10
[21:00] <oCean_> gh0st: that's the way :-) Glad to be of help
[21:00] <usr13> fogrider: Ctrl-Alt-F6 and fix xorg
[21:00] <tilen> i have some problem on ubuntu 9.10 they say me wired network you are now offline dont work tiwh dhclient whats wrong?
[21:00] <riverbird> mr_engineer,  yup.  ?? why not?  are you running 9.10 now?
[21:00] <mr_engineer> riverbird, yes
[21:00] <mr_engineer> but making a new partition would take hours here
[21:01] <erUSUL> echofish: permissions in unix/linux are rwx - rwx - rwx the last three letters are the permission for "anyone" (the first are for the owner the second for group)

Any ideas?
[21:05] <mr_engineer> which would solve general problems in my pc
