[18:30] <sre-su> I've a single HDD1 containing Ubunt OS. Now, if I attach another HDD2 containing Windows and then change boot priority for HDD1 over other, how later in ubuntu I can update grub so that its easily detected and allowed for boot from grub menu?
[18:30] <sre-su> Ubuntu*
[18:30] <Gulfstream> I need help finding the right driver & installing it for my RT2870 USB wireless card... I am looking at this page atm :  http://www.ralinktech.com/support.php?s=2
[18:31] <edbian> sre-su, attach the hdd2, boot ubuntu, run this: sudo update-grub  it will automatically find windows and add an entry into grub.
[18:31] <edbian> sre-su, Then when you boot grub will ask you which OS to boot
[18:31] <sre-su> edbian: is this a normal approach?
[18:31] <edbian> sre-su, yep
[18:32] <DoctorPepper> can someone help me please ,  i am  having a issue configuring a tramsparent proxy  with content filtering using squid+squidGuard  but  the  filtering bit  doesnt seem to work

[18:32] <YouKay> Hey guys, what is the command to make 'sudo aptitude upgrade' install the upgrades without asking 'Do you want to install the update? (Y/N)"?
[18:32] <sre-su> edbian: And, I've read that Ubuntu can always be installed after Windows since there ll be no MBR issues... Will it affect grub or any other settings
[18:33] <sre-su> Ya, thank you!
[18:33] <YouKay> Or, make Yes to any command at the beginning?
[18:33] <edbian> YouKay, sudo aptitude -y safe-upgrade
[18:33] <YouKay> Oh, many thanks edbian. Does -y make Yes to all commands?
[18:33] <edbian> sre-su, what you read is true.  Grub is 'the MBR issues'
[18:34] <edbian> YouKay, sure does!  (course it only asks one time in safe-upgrade)
[18:34] <YouKay> edbian: Oh, many thanks. :)
[18:34] <Senjai> Hey all
[18:34] <sre-su> edbian: Will adding hdd2 after hdd1 affect any settings for grub/linux?
[18:35] <sre-su> edbian: apart from its detection after update-grub
[18:35] <edbian> sre-su, simply adding the hdd won't do anything.  Telling the bios to boot hdd2 will always just boot windows (cause hdd2 has the windows bootloader)
[18:35] <edbian> sre-su, what you want to do is continue booting hdd1 but tell grub to check for other OS's so that it can give you the option to boot them when you boot hdd1
[18:35] <LucidGuy> does anyone know if the allowusers line within sshdconf supports user@ip? example<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    I have an ubuntu system that seems to fail.

[18:36] <milind> i wrote a script to pull from my git repo , but i want that script to start everytime i restart my system..how do i go about doing that...i addeed the script to /usr/bin and i have a soft link to /etc/init.d and i ran the udo update-rc.d /etc/init.d/custom_script.sh defaults command as well...but for some reason its not pulling from the repo...all other command work this way..git related commands are notworking
[18:36] <edbian> milind, scripts you wrote should go in /usr/local/bin
[18:36] <sre-su> edbian: Directing booting of Windows from grub , detecting and allocation of its partition like /dev/sdb* will be done by update-grub, right?
[18:36] <edbian> milind, look at update-rc.d
[18:37] <edbian> sre-su, yes
[18:37] <Senjai> Hey guys, so does anyone have some time to help out a noob with linux? I finally took some comp sci courses at my uni. I have limited C++ knowledge on windows, does anyone know any books or resources I could use to learn linux?
[18:37] <Senjai> I have can use the bash at a basic level already.
[18:37] <Senjai> I can*

[18:37] <eXpLoD> how do i start open office calc application?it's not in the applications tab
[18:37] <edbian> Senjai, Just download and burn a live CD and start messing around.  That is my advice to you.
[18:37] <llutz> LucidGuy: look for "Patterns" in  man 5 ssh_config
[18:37] <edwardo> w3schools.com is good too not for linux though
[18:37] <Senjai> edbian I have been, I use the bash for 100% navigation, and am learning emacs :)
[18:38] <milind> edbian, yes theya re in usr/local/bin..and the did the update-rc.d too...if i put some other commands in the script...its working on restart..but just git pull orgin master is not working...any ideas..i am thinking on start up its failing to use my ssh ketys
[18:38] <edbian> Senjai, You want to learn more stuff?  Start looking into open source projects and trying to help out.
[18:38] <Senjai> edbian I'm mostly looking for linux related programming books, web and local, most books and sites are windows specific programming
[18:38] <edbian> milind, I'm not sure.  You did the Ubuntu part right.  Now it's just a programming issue I think
[18:39] <Senjai> edbian how can I? I havent had any formal training yet (intro comp sci courses) and some direct X stuff i experimented with when I was younger
[18:39] <Senjai> I mean I know C++, enough to program in it, but it's less than, proper.
[18:40] <edbian> Senjai, Besides compiling, file I/O logistics, and GUI stuff, most programming languages are platform independent.  I'm not sure there is a lot to learn about 'linux' programming

[18:52] <SkyVodka> not that I know of, depending on which IRC client you are using you should be abe to search for channels

[19:01] <akm22562> Hey All, I just got a NetBook (HP Mini 1150NR).  I installed 10.4 NetBook Remix.  My max Res is 1024x576.  Sometimes as a result, things get cutt off.
[19:01] <milen8204> how I can open .bin files ???
[19:02] <spasysheep> milen8204: depends what type of .bin file. lots of things use that extension
[19:02] <schnuffle> milen8204: chmod +x binfile.bin, but be sure you know what you do!
[19:02] <Who> Logan_WP:  that's for Realtek Wifi card
[19:02] <ActionParsnip> milen8204: what is the filename and where is it located?
[19:02] <trond-> can I use a natty kernel on maveric. I need the 38-30 (the 38-rc4-actually)
[19:03] <ActionParsnip> trond-: there is a ppa with the 38 kernel but it won't be supported here in any way
[19:03] <trond-> ActionParsnip, this one? http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[19:03] <milen8204> ActionParsnip, /home/milen/Azureus Downloads/Swat 4 The Stetchkov Syndicate - RELOADED/rld-sw4x.bin
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> trond-: isn't that a paid for software?

[19:05] <example92> hot to mark a program as "executable" if I want to run it on wine?
[19:05] <Gulfstream> how do I copy a file?
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> milen8204: isn't that a paid for software?
[19:05] <trond-> ActionParsnip, no worries
[19:05] <milen8204> spasysheep, it is for virtual CD
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> trond-: yes thats the ppa, if you get issues then the channel cannot help as you are using 3rd party kernel
[19:06] <milen8204> i downloaded from one site
[19:06] <SkyVodka> no pirating
[19:06] <Gulfstream> How I copy a file in terminal?
[19:06] <SkyVodka> cp
[19:06] <llutz> Gulfstream: cp file /path
[19:06] <coinop> OKay, so I installed Ubuntu 10.10 on a laptop I just bought, ran fine for two weeks, now I cant get GRUB to boot. It just keeps starting and shutting down repeatedly. Anyone have any tips?
[19:07] <trond-> ActionParsnip, I c. Because there isn't an official 38 kernel for maveric, right?
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> trond-: correct, 38 is a natty kernel
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> !piracy | Gulfstream
[19:08] <Guest5091> coinop, rtry to reinstall it
[19:08] <Pici> ActionParsnip: You mistargeted there...
[19:08] <Senjai> Hey guys, in ubuntu, how does ubuntu know, say after installing google-chrome that google-chrome points to the right file? does it use a registry or what?
[19:08] <Gulfstream> ActionParsnip: I didn't know copying files was piracy! Sorry!
[19:08] <Pici> Gulfstream: It wasn't supposed to be pointed at you.
[19:09] <ActionParsnip> Pici: did a bit
[19:09] <ActionParsnip> Gulfstream: sorry, mistargetted
[19:09] <Gulfstream> oh...

[19:10] <ActionParsnip> yay
[19:11] <SkyVodka> Senjai, when chrome is installed, a command is added to the list that bash reads from
[19:11] <Senjai> SkyVodka Where is that list?
[19:11] <_Neytiri_> how do i install java via the command line
[19:12]  * Senjai is new from windows, misses the registry, kind of..
[19:12] <coinop> reinstall will not work, it wont boot from the disc. its just keeps repeatedly sarting up and shutting down.
[19:13] <Senjai> _Neytiri_ sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin
[19:13] <Senjai> I would think
[19:13] <coinop> I just want to know if its a hardware or software issue.
[19:13] <_Neytiri_>  cant find pacakge
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> !java | Senjai

[19:14] <fbsrosa> exit

[19:14] <ActionParsnip> fbsrosa: try  /quit

[19:14] <Senjai> ?
[19:14] <Senjai> update your apt
[19:14] <milen8204> ActionParsnip, you mean that is pirate copy ?
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> milen8204: yes, its clear you used Azeurus to pull it down. Piracy is not condoned or supported here
[19:14] <SkyVodka> milen8204, if you downloaded the game for free, then yes
[19:15] <Senjai> _Neytiri_ update your cache, use sudo apt-get update

[19:15] <_Neytiri_> add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner"
[19:15] <milen8204> ok i will delete it
[19:15] <Senjai> _Neytiri_ then try sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin
[19:15] <SkyVodka> !bash
[19:15] <trond-> ActionParsnip, which again means that I shall not use it on maveric. I see that there are backports to lucid. Is it a better option to reinstall to lucid (lts) and then use the backport to lucid?
[19:15] <BunnyFooFoo> 4018: <Speedsta> heh, just wasted 25c on a msg saying: ":`("
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> trond-: not sure, i've not played with it
[19:16] <trond-> ActionParsnip, I see. (someone has to, maybe I am that someone). I need to use the 38-kernel because the intel graphic card issues are fixed in that kernel.

[19:27] <erUSUL> SkyVodka: you mean --> echo $PATH
[19:27] <SkyVodka> that'll work too erUSUL
[19:27] <galax11> how i install the java
[19:28] <secretary_linux> Atlantic777: usually that just means ifconfig's location isn't in your PATH..try /sbin/ifconfig
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> Atlantic777: ifconfig $1 | grep "inet addr" | awk -F: '{print $2}' | awk '{print $1}' | tail -n 1
[19:28] <SkyVodka> galax11, open Ubuntu Software Center and search for java

[19:32] <ohsix> robho-neo: you can poke at it with ethtool; if the link is up and the peer is gbit too, it could be the cable or something
[19:32] <ActionParsnip> SuperPaco69: once you install unrar and rar, fileroller can do it in nautilus (right click menu)

[19:40] <nagel182> anda nice user helped me... his name started with u..... i want ask is he here?
[19:40] <ohsix> alfredWinI_bego: dependencies are automatically installed; mint is broken, this isn't a mint support channel
[19:40] <Odaym> I was thinking of something more along the lines of the global Linux community agreeing on standard distros for Desktop usage, standard distros for Server usage and so on
[19:41] <jkg> oh was c0br42 that girl that was in earlier asking about Mint?
[19:41] <alfredWinI_bego> ohsix: right.. i wanted ubuntu support
[19:41] <Odaym> but that does limit freedom since it would kill a lot of initiative in a lot of people/developers
[19:41] <Senjai> Odaym, doesn't that go against the whole philosophy of linux?
[19:41] <genii-around> Odaym: This is more a topic for #ubuntu-offtopic than here :)
[19:41] <BluesKaj> splitsville!
[19:42] <guampa> Odaym: those kinds of efforts are in place already from years, freedesktop.org and a lot others
[19:42] <ohsix> Odaym: commercial distros are there to provide a standard for people that want one maintained over time
[19:42] <Odaym> yea Senjai, this is what i was thinking, and it's not easy to avoid this in your thought process the more you progress in this field
[19:42] <Odaym> that is why a lot of "others" fall for it
[19:42] <Odaym> yes i know it's for offtopic, maybe i will go there
[19:42] <Odaym> sorry
[19:42] <alfredWinI_bego> what are some reasons that my ubuntu 9.10 distro may not be installing dependencies when i try apt-get?
[19:42] <Senjai> Odaym see you there :)

[19:43] <ohsix> standards of the freedesktop type can be considered solved problems, ones that before it existed were blockers for interop and things to bicker over
[19:43] <KB1JWQ> alfredWinI_bego: Sure.  "You're running Mint."
[19:43] <alfredWinI_bego> KB1JWQ: you don't know that
[19:43] <IdleOne> alfredWinI_bego: One reason may be that it isn't Ubuntu. Maybe because it is broken and we don't support it

[19:44] <ohsix> robho-neo: i don't know anything about the status of the mcp ethernet driver, sorry
[19:44] <rumpe1> KGBWolf, why would you need something like that?
[19:44] <ActionParsnip> KGBWolf: does your system use NTP?
[19:44] <llutz> KGBWolf: stupid question: why do you change date? it its not correct, set timezone

[19:49] <ohsix> if they're the same thing, how does ubuntu suck when mint doesn't :O

[19:50] <Jordan_U> CoinOp: Do you use windows, and if so do you have Adobe Photoshop installed?
[19:51] <ActionParsnip> CoinOp: when the system fires up, what happens?
[19:51] <SkyVodka> ohsix, you are gonna make me go to the liqueur cabinet before 5?
[19:51] <nagel182> haaah I come from windows, so oI'm noob to linux. I come here to set up a PHP development area. I installed LAMp reviously.. but what i needed to developed didnt work. i needed to instal magickwand for PHP. but that can only be installed if you have the PHP source. now i was herea few days ago, and a kind user helped me a lot(I can only remeber that his name started with u) and with his help i installed appache 2 and php 5 from source
[19:51] <nagel182> .. but fater that he elft... now i tried to countinue but Linux crashed, so hard i needed to reinstall.

[19:52] <KGBWolf> I dont have NTP
[19:52] <CoinOp> It loads the acer boot screen, then i get the flashing underscore, then a blank screen, then the underscore again but solid, then it repeats the process

[19:53] <ActionParsnip> oxi: you will need the partition mounted but not in use (liveCD is ideal here), then just create a compress archive of the mount point
[19:53] <CoinOp> It will not load the ubuntu disc or recovery discs
[19:53] <saymin> ok
[19:53] <v0lksman> nagel182, I could be wrong but if all you need is the php source to compile something against then you can install php the normal way (apt-get install php5) and also grab the source apt-get source php5, then compile magicwand against the source you downloaded
[19:53] <ActionParsnip> oxi: tar czf archivename.tar.gz foldertoarchive

[19:54] <Joseph_> I am attempting to install ubuntu 10,10 on my macbook.  I have followed the instructions for installation (created a partition, installed rEFIt) but whenever I try to load Ubuntu from the live CD i get a black screen after the first splash.  I tried moving to the text based installer, but i get the same results after selecting "install ubuntu".  the disc and memory checks both passed tests.  Does anyone have any help to offer?
[19:54] <Jordan_U> CoinOp: There are some windows programs whose DRM is known to overwrite GRUB, Photoshop is probably the most used, Dell Data Safe is another. Did you notice that the problems with GRUB happened after booting into Windows?
[19:54] <nagel182> How?
[19:54] <nagel182> how can i recompile it on an existing PHP?

[19:55] <nagel182> v0lksman.. can we speak in PM?
[19:55] <Joseph_> actionparsnip: will this work with 10,10?
[19:55] <Jordan_U> CoinOp: You can no longer even boot from any CD as well?
[19:56] <ActionParsnip> Joseph_: works in any
[19:56] <HACKZ> hi there is anyone using pdfedit?
[19:56] <supertux__> CoinOp, what's the problem?
[19:56] <anonboots> I still cant get my Deskjet 1000 to work. I downloaded and installed the latest HPLIP, with no success. What should I do next?
[19:56] <v0lksman> nagel182, no, I'm busy and can only offer a little help...the channel will pick up where we leave off... :)
[19:57] <CoinOp> The only problem i ever noticed was when would shut down ubuntu i would get an miso exception, but it never was an issue. I did have to boot 7 yesterday to quickly use a flash website I couldnt load in ubuntu.
[19:57] <v0lksman> where are your docs for magicwand?
[19:57] <CoinOp> It wont boot any cd at all, correct. just the endless startup and shut down.
[19:57] <v0lksman> nagel182, ^
[19:57] <KGBWolf> does ubunt grab date from BIOS?
[19:57] <SkyyVodka> no
[19:57] <saymin> #jaje
[19:57] <Jordan_U> CoinOp: Sounds like a hardware/firmware issue.
[19:58] <ActionParsnip> CoinOp: did you MD5 test the ISO you burned? Did you make the CD check itself for errors once the boot starts :)
[19:58] <SkyyVodka> saymin, why do you keep posting that? Is there a reason?
[19:58] <v0lksman> KGBWolf, check for ntp running on your system..
[19:59] <Joseph_> ActionParsnip: Thanks, i will try
[19:59] <CoinOp> I dont recall doing either of those things ActionParsnip
[19:59] <ActionParsnip> CoinOp: then how did you know the ISO was complete or consistent?
[20:00] <malv> why does flash now crash chromium?
[20:00] <Jordan_U> ActionParsnip: When multiple CDs that used to work don't even get to the boot menu it's pretty safe to say there is a hardware problem.
[20:00] <idm> ola
[20:00] <idm> olaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAaaaaAAAaaaAAaa
[20:00] <CoinOp> I guess I just assumed if it ran correctly for two weeks through dozens of boot ups and software installs it was good to go.
[20:00] <ikonia> idm: please don't do that
[20:00] <ikonia> !es |idm
[20:01] <CoinOp> So where do I go from here?
[20:01] <ActionParsnip> Jordan_U: when users have install issues, its the first thing I ask and they NEVER test anyting....
[20:02] <saymin> vivre dans un monde mystérieux, chacun d'entre nous
[20:02] <ActionParsnip> CoinOp: test the ISO as well as check the CD for defects once it starts to boot, you can also test the RAM from the same screen you test the CD from

[20:13] <Wulfy> Estragon, proberbly cd/dvd or as a last resort maybe pxe
[20:13] <ActionParsnip> openSUSEkorisnik: if you install smplayer in Kubuntu you will have a native equivelant, mplayer is mplayer dude. Why use Windows Mplayer when it is compiled natively for the OS you are using....?

[20:21] <Pricey> adub: You will need to plug in both the VGA cable *and* a 3.5m jack for audio
[20:22] <adub> pricey yes im trying two different speakers now im not sure if my tv card is messing it up or not not sure not even sure if it worked before i  installed the tv card i actually had the tv card inside the computer before installing ubuntu
[20:22] <adub> it acts as if it is working
[20:22] <Pricey> adub: click on the sound icon top right, choose sound preferences, choose the output tab, make sure the correct output is then selected
[20:22] <adub> but no sound output i have a big monitor that has a sound input on it and i have that ran to my sound card i have just tried some external speakers that i had laying around nothing there too

[20:23] <Pricey> adub: also, are you sure you haven't plugged your speakers into your sound card?
[20:23] <adub> these speakers were working last week with this sound card
[20:23] <adub> now for the monitor speakers not sure
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> adub: if you run:  alsamixer    are all levels unmuted and cranked?

[20:24] <adub> actionparsnip yes
[20:24] <ikonia> needhelp1: try running that shell script direct
[20:24] <needhelp1> ikonia, k one sec
[20:24] <adub> does anyone know if an hvr-1600 tv tuner card would make the sound stop working
[20:24] <ActionParsnip> adub: what is the output of:   wget -O alsa-info.sh http://alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash ./alsa-info.sh      say yes to upload to the site and you will get a red hyperlink
[20:25] <Jordan_U> CoinOp: Follow this guide to re-install grub: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide
[20:25] <CoinOp> Jordan_U: Thank you.
[20:25] <supertux__> CoinOp, i have experience in grub 2 reinstalling
[20:25] <Jordan_U> CoinOp: You're welcome.
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> CoinOp: the ISO is on the system you downloaded it on, When the CD boots and you see the stick man with the keyboard, press SPACE and choose to test the CD for defects, reboot and repeat but choose the RAM test
[20:26] <zkriesse> Question: How do I copy a file from one folder and then move it to another folder via terminal
[20:26] <supertux__> reinstalled many times
[20:26] <supertux__> cp copy mv move
[20:26] <zkriesse> That doesn't really help
[20:26] <llutz> zkriesse: mv /path/file targetfolder/
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> zkriesse: cp file /path/to/location; mv /path/to/location/file /path/to/other/location
[20:27] <IdleOne> zkriesse: cp /file/to/copy /where/to/copy
[20:27] <zkriesse> ActionParsnip: Thanks
[20:27] <adub> actionparsnip its uploading now
[20:27] <Jordan_U> CoinOp: If that fixes GRUB then try booting into Windows a few times. If GRUB fails in the same way after booting Windows then it's probably some application's idiotic DRM.
[20:27] <needhelp1> ikonia, maybe im doing something wrong, im in /usr/bin .. i cant find the firefox directory
[20:27] <adub> http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=806863ff491097d6539dbcfcd08c90b9094f0ac0   <--- actionparsnip
[20:28] <ikonia> needhelp1: look at the path in the symlink, it's not the same directory, it's up a level
[20:29] <needhelp1> ikonia, ?
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> adub: use: http://monespaceperso.org/blog-en/2010/05/02/upgrade-alsa-1-0-23-on-ubuntu-lucid-lynx-10-04/    to get the 1.0.23 version of ALSA
[20:29] <ohsix> Doed_: it's really not; ssh does everything securecrt can do and more, the rest is down to your terminal emulator
[20:29] <ikonia> needhelp1: the symlink (ls -la /usr/bin/firefox) points to a script, run that
[20:30] <ohsix> needhelp1: if firefox is already running, running "firefox" will talk to the running instance
[20:31] <Zoffix_> Hey. Is there a way to configure how long a menu stays open when mouse leaves it? Can't find anything in gnome-control-center and tried googling, but didn't get anything sensible.
[20:31] <c0dewiz> hi i have a problem that really freaks me up... i need to make a bootable usb pen-drive in ubuntu (to install a customers netbook with xp). i tried virtualbox with a windows guest, but it doesnt see the pendrive
[20:31] <Zoffix_> c0dewiz, free virtualbox doesn't have USB support.
[20:32] <c0dewiz> 4.0.0 has
[20:32] <Zoffix_> Oh. Wasn't aware.
[20:32] <c0dewiz> it actually sees my printer, but i cant click on the stick, its grayed out
[20:32] <Zoffix_> Maybe it has to do with permissions on the drive?
[20:32] <c0dewiz> is there maybe even a linux program to make a bootable stick with windows xp on it?
[20:33] <ikonia> c0dewiz: no
[20:33] <c0dewiz> hum.
[20:33] <needhelp1> /lib/firefox-3.6.13/firefox.sh   ikonia
[20:33] <needhelp1> ikonia, but its not there
[20:33] <needhelp1> that i can see
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> c0dewiz: uninstall the ose vbox then use this: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads   shows a repo you can add
[20:33] <llutz> needhelp1: /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.13/firefox.sh
[20:33] <ikonia> needhelp1: /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.13/firefox.sh
[20:33] <c0dewiz> zoffix, im a littlebit confused, are you talking of the permissions in the /media/ folder where the usb pendrive is actually mounted?
[20:33] <bc81> my gnome main menu is buggy, sometimes hovering over items doesn't open the sub-menu at all..i have to move the mouse away, come back and click for it to open.  what can i do to speed up the menus?  it seems to be a system-wide problem
[20:34] <SkyyVodka> Install more RAM
[20:34] <Doed__> ohsix: ok i have to specify my quest. I am looking for a terminal emul like securcrt
[20:34] <danub> i was in here yesterday and someone was trying to update their server but they had a LTS version and their updates would only update to the newest LTS. Someone said to change a value from 'lts' to 'normal' where is that change supposed to be made? (my system only went to 10.04, not 10.10 and i think this may be the reason)
[20:35] <ohsix> Doed__: on everywhere else than windows they are separate parts
[20:35] <zkriesse> cp /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/MSI-Flex/EasyDPS/SHIPMENTDELIVERIES_PRVN_AGFM0013516.TXT; mv /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/MSI-Flex/EasyDPS/SHIPMENTDELIVERIES_PRVN_AGFM0013516.TXT /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/MSI-Flex/EasyDPS/junk
[20:35] <zkriesse> That's my command
[20:35] <zkriesse> And it's not working
[20:35] <bc81> SkyyVodka: was that comment directed toward me?
[20:35] <SkyyVodka> si
[20:35] <needhelp1> ikonia, jessica@jessica-laptop:/usr/lib/firefox-3.6.13$ bash firefox.sh
[20:35] <danub> what about it isn't working zkriesse ?
[20:35] <needhelp1> ikonia, froze terminal
[20:35] <zkriesse> danub: Isn't copying and then moving the file
[20:35] <ikonia> needhelp1: reboot your machine
[20:36] <danub> zkriesse: are you sure the files exist?
[20:36] <bc81> !who | SkyyVodka, i have 2 GiB of RAM, only 427 MiB is being used..so what makes you think it's lack of RAM?
[20:36] <zkriesse> I'm staring at it
[20:36] <drc> danub: Software Sources>Updates
[20:36] <needhelp1> jessica@jessica-laptop:/usr/lib/firefox-3.6.13$ bash firefox.sh
[20:36] <needhelp1> /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.13/run-mozilla.sh: 399: /usr/lib/firefox-3.6.13/firefox.sh: Argument list too long
[20:36] <danub> because that would be the only reason it would fail
[20:36] <danub> drc: terminal. im ssh'd in
[20:36] <SkyyVodka> bc81 no need to bring ubottu into this
[20:37] <llutz> zkriesse: either you copy something or you move it. the first part cp .... ;  is pointless
[20:37] <trism> danub: /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades after installing update-manager-core
[20:37] <drc> danub: sorry...didn't see that note in the question
[20:37] <SkyyVodka> get a new GPU
[20:37] <ikonia> needhelp1: reboot your machine
[20:37] <danub> drc, yeah, forgot to mention i was ssh'd
[20:37] <danub> ;)
[20:37] <trism> danub: it's all in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MaverickUpgrades
[20:37] <needhelp1> ikonia, will do i'll be back in about an hr
[20:38] <ikonia> needhelp1: no problem
[20:38] <SkyyVodka> bc81, how much RAM is on your GPU?
[20:38] <SkyyVodka> 32bit or 64bit?
[20:38] <bc81> SkyyVodka: it's intel integrated GPU on a laptop.  i don't know how much RAm it has.  32bit
[20:38] <Joepie> Q: is it possibleto delete a non empty directory @ once ?
[20:39] <llutz> Joepie: rm -rf dir/
[20:39] <drc> danub: someone else may have the answer, I don't...sorry
[20:39] <Joepie> llutz TY
[20:40] <ActionParsnip> Joepie: you only really need rm -r folder
[20:40] <eross> i deleted my panel #2, how do i get a window 'task list; onto the first panel? You know, the thing we always take for granted by clicking on the bar below to reveal the window
[20:40] <drc> danub: maybe that link trism gave would help...see the bit about upgrading servers (i.e.  edit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and set Prompt=normal)
[20:41] <sinisterstuf> eross, right-click>add to panel> window list
[20:41] <Joepie> ActionParship ty 2
[20:41] <sinisterstuf> eross, description: switch between open windows using buttons (that;s what you want right?)
[20:41] <ohsix> bc81: that sounds weird that you have to move away and back, can you see the harddrive light? does it go solid on for 3+ seconds when you open the menu? and does it do the same thing if you try again quickly after having done it once
[20:41] <eross> dern.. why didn't it work before.  ok thanks
[20:42] <sinisterstuf> eross, you're welcome, anything else?
[20:42] <eross> lottery #s?
[20:42] <virtus> Okay. I'm attempting to extract a file to /usr/share/games/bve -- But, I can't. Even when I run nautilus as sudo, and then open archive manager on the file. It's a 7zip file. And, I can't figure out how to extract this archive to a directory, without either A: Putting all the files into ONE directory. Or, B: Putting it in a directory with the name examplearchive (example, of course)
[20:43] <virtus> Any ideas?
[20:43] <drc> eross:<PHONE_NUMBER>58979323846264338327950288419716939937510
[20:43] <sinisterstuf> eross, 2047
[20:43] <willystylee> Can someone help me? i'm currently installing ubuntu 10.10 on another machine and i got stuck on the 7th step (entering name, pw etc) it shows a cmd line right above the progress bar, and it says "ready when you are" but 'forward' is grey'd out for some reason, and it just sits there with the cmd line showing "ubuntu CRON [9746] : (Root) cmd    (    CD / && run - parts -- report/etc/cron/hourly)
[20:43] <sinisterstuf> eross, if you're bored you can write a bash script to generate random numbers for you ;)
[20:44] <bc81> ohsix: the HDD light is just a blip, whether or not the sub-menu decides to appear.  i'm going to try deleting ~/.config/menus and log out/in.  this just started happening within the last week or so
[20:44] <maco2> willystylee: is the username all lowercase?
[20:44] <pyrophelia> got a problem, I have a file that I can't delete.  the file permissions are set to 777, I own the file, and i'm in the group.  lsattr shows no locks either.  I can move/delete the file as root but I need to be able to move it around as a normal user.  any idea to trace what's preventing me from moving/deleting the file?
[20:44] <willystylee> maco2: no its not... it needs to be?
[20:44] <maco2> willystylee: yes
[20:44] <willystylee> ok
[20:44] <gsp2009> hey folks... anyone have any suggestion on how to make an audio cd from mp3's?
[20:45] <eross> sinisterstuf - not that bored.. really want to write the next great bad graphics amateurish game for ubuntu, but am not feeling the drive and also think it will be for naught
[20:45] <roach> i'm logged in a shell, is there a way to i9nstall tcl without root?
[20:45] <luciash> hi, anybody using firehol as firewall ? i would like to get some hints what am i doing wrong trying to forward some ports
[20:45] <ohsix> bc81: if your computer isn't going nuts when you do it it's not for lack of memory or anything, the moving away rules a lot of stuff out; but unfortunately what's left is bugs and i dunno! D:
[20:45] <maco2> gsp2009: brasero
[20:45] <SkyyVodka> How do I add a new nick to my cloak?
[20:45] <balleyne> is there a way to set umask for a specific directory? just the sticky bit method, or any other options?
[20:45] <maco2> roach: you could compile it for your user only by setting --prefix when you configure the build
[20:45] <ActionParsnip> gsp2009: brasero / gnomebaker / k3b can do that
[20:45] <gsp2009> maco2: didn't know it supported it.. thanks.
[20:45] <guntbert> pyrophelia: where is the file? where do you want to move it to?
[20:45] <virtus> Okay. I'm attempting to extract a file to /usr/share/games/bve -- But, I can't. Even when I run nautilus as sudo, and then open archive manager on the file. It's a 7zip file. And, I can't figure out how to extract this archive to a directory, without either A: Putting all the files into ONE directory. Or, B: Putting it in a directory with the name examplearchive (example, of course)
[20:45] <ActionParsnip> SkyyVodka: i'd ask in #freenode
[20:45] <roach> maco2, i never used linux
[20:45] <roach> could you walk me through it
[20:45] <gsp2009> ActionParsnip. Thanks!
[20:46] <roach> i have the tar file in my $home
[20:46] <ActionParsnip> virtus: use gksudo or kdesu with nautilus, sudo is NOT for gui apps
[20:46] <virtus> ActionParsnip: It still works, does it not?
[20:46] <sinisterstuf> eross, if you have the time and skill it would be really nice if you could contribute to one of the current game projects, I think if there were some really really good games (that also look nice) on ubuntu then windows gamers would have 1 less "bad" thing to say about it
[20:46] <maco2> roach: no because i'm at work, and if you don't have sudo access, you can't install the build dependencies yourself and so would need to compile those and we're talking a several hours project
[20:47] <virtus> That wouldn't solve my problem -- You're just making a point of security. Sudo is for anything, if I remember correctly. I mean, I DID use Gentoo for like, four years.
[20:47] <virtus> Unless Ubuntu has re-written sudo?
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> virtus: sudo 7z x filname -0 /usr/share/games/bve
[20:47] <virtus> ActionParsnip: zero? Or, o
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> virtus: sudo is NOT for GUI apps, it doesn't setup the environment correctly
[20:47] <maco2> virtus: i think the issue you hit was that archive manager wasnt also gksudo'd
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> virtus: -o   sorry
[20:48] <ohsix> sinisterstuf: that there are games isn't very useful if the game you want to play isn't on there
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> !gksudo | virtus
[20:48] <ohsix> sinisterstuf: solitaire is all you need from that perspective, and it's there :D
[20:48] <sinisterstuf> ohsix, do you mean it would be nice if there was cod black ops for linux?
[20:49] <danub> ActionParsnip: just login as root, what could possibly go wrong ;)
[20:49] <virtus> ActionParsnip: Gave me an incorrect command line error
[20:49] <virtus> sudo 7z x NLopen_routes_98.7z -o /usr/share/games/bve
[20:49] <anonboots> I still cant get my Deskjet 1000 to work. I downloaded and installed the latest HPLIP, with no success. What should I do next?
[20:49] <ohsix> virtus: you'd need to be in sudoers and without a password for sudo to work, since it prompts for a password it will exit if the output isn't a terminal; gksudo asks for a password with a gui dialogue
[20:49] <anonboots> .
[20:49] <ActionParsnip> danub: root login is a really bad idea and not advised at all
[20:49] <nimbiotics> what is the channel for open office?
[20:50] <guntbert> nimbiotics: #openoffice.org
[20:50] <danub> ActionParsnip: i know, i was being a smartass :P
[20:50] <eross> i'll go to offtopic, thanks
[20:50] <ohsix> sinisterstuf: lots of things would be nice, but if you can't play what you want it's not even an option
[20:50] <nimbiotics> guntbert: THX!
[20:50] <Wulfy> ActionParsnip,  i miss the good ol day of messing with rh 7 as root.... and killing my system repeatdly
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> virtus: do you have p7zip-rar and p7zip-full installed?
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> danub: i see
[20:51] <sinisterstuf> ohsix, imo Warsow is a failry nice game that runs on Linux and on Windows etc. so you could techinically take a linux box to a lan and play that
[20:51] <danub> Wulfy: we do that at work, on RHEL 5. but thats because they assume no one will break anything and that nothing here is confidential or important... :: shrugs ::
[20:51] <ohsix> you could also try and convince 10 other people to play warsow instead of CoD, it's not about what you can do, but what people want to do
[20:52] <Wulfy> danub,  must fun with regards to acountability
[20:52] <zozipaa> xubuntu 10 для чайников совсем не подходит?  а то я вот чота чайник... никак звука немогу добится... играет только через интегрированую а через usb emu 0202 - никак.. но, цуко, видит её везде...
[20:53] <guntbert> !ru | zozipaa
[20:53] <malik_> hi anyone from an east asian country...
[20:53] <danub> Wulfy: well i have never broke anything so I'm safe. we did have a dev rm -rf /* one of our servers, but it was an accident and he forgot that /* started at / and not /home/user/tmp/*
[20:53] <guntbert> malik_: why do you ask?
[20:53] <danub> i got to take that day off ;)
[20:53] <malik_> cause there seems an error in using east asian languages in Qt apps
[20:54] <guntbert> !bug | malik_
[20:54] <Wulfy> danub, simler to some guy 2 days ago came on soemone had told him to dd his hard drive with 0's nice of them i mmust say thoe i agree i prefair running as root.... getting used to the idea of not now days as i consider myself compertant enought o undo what ever i broke
[20:55] <jrib> Wulfy: the decision not to run as root isn't primarily related to competence
[20:55] <ohsix> ubuntu can use safe-rm as a wrapper; you can blacklist paths, but it's a silly concern
[20:55] <Wulfy> jrib also security yes i agree
[20:56] <Wulfy> jrib,  im not knocking the descion to not allow root users far from it, im sure if users wanted to they could re-eanble root logins without to much headache
[20:56] <danub> Wulfy: yeah, its a bad habit for me too. i just get tired of prefixing sudo to everything I do so I just run as root. and if i break something. i slap myself, cry in a corner for a few hours, then start over
[20:56] <ohsix> privilege you don't need to do something is always too much privilege
[20:56] <ohsix> danub: sudo -s ftw
[20:56] <Raj007> anyone know of a working blocklist for transmission ?
[20:56]  * drc always thought that *nix's root permissions were a bit of Darwinian humor
[20:57] <ohsix> Raj007: does their wiki have any information on it?
[20:57] <danub> ohsix: su ftw ;)
[20:57] <Raj007> ohsix: i didn't check the wiki. Checked some forum posts with no certain answer.
[20:58] <ohsix> having to type your own password is good enough for the transition, unless you have no sudoers
[20:58] <ohsix> Raj007: chances are it supports standard blocklists now that they have gui settings to change it, if so then you're looking for peerguardian lists or something like them; not transmission lists
[20:59] <danub> i have never idved into the differences between sudo and su, but they give me the same result (sudo apt-get update vs apt-get update while su). is sudo basically just a wrapper to elevate privlidges of non-root user?
[20:59] <virtus> Ah, that's why.
[20:59] <virtus> Okay. Now that I extracted the files, the permissions are wrong
[20:59] <oxi> what tool can I use to create a complete snapshot/backup of an ext3 filesystem?
[20:59] <virtus> What's permissions for read/write all?
[20:59] <danub> or is there actually some kind of safe guards put in place when sudo is used?
[20:59] <virtus> 777?
[20:59] <llutz> danub: main difference is, su needs root-password, sudo the user-passw
[20:59] <ohsix> sudo lets you pick lists of people and lists of programs that are ok to run; and different ways to make the transition, that's all
[21:00] <oxi> if heard that xattr's and acls, possibly more is not saved using tar
[21:00] <ohsix> oxi: i've been using duplicity recently, works well enough
[21:01] <oxi> ohsix: thanks
[21:01] <jrib> danub: with sudo you can restrict what user's can do and you also get a paper trail
[21:01] <virtus> What's the permissions for read/write all?
[21:01] <virtus> o O
[21:01] <virtus> 777? Or 755?
[21:01] <jrib> !permission | virtus
[21:02] <ybit> how do you keep up with the latest greatest software for ubuntu?
[21:02] <ohsix> apt-get update :]
[21:02] <JetBoyJetGirl> What's the bash command to list all of your programs ? I'm trying to execute a program but unsure of what command to use...
[21:02] <ohsix> but it does it automatically if you install the desktop version
[21:03] <fatninja> Hello to all Ubuntu users
[21:03] <fatninja> need some help
[21:03] <sraue> JetBoyJetGirl press tabulator twice
[21:03] <ybit> fatninja: with what?
[21:03] <x007me> yelp
[21:03] <fatninja> I'm currently using Windows 7 and I've installed it with wubi
[21:03] <JetBoyJetGirl> lol thanks sraue
[21:03] <fatninja> everything was great
[21:04] <fatninja> restarted
[21:04] <fatninja> installed it
[21:04] <jazzyjef> I am trying to create a fake root filesystem and use ath5k modules in the kernel either as loadable module or within the kernel itself
[21:04] <jazzyjef>  when i try to make it as a loadable module, my modules.dep files are missing
[21:04] <jazzyjef>  and now i have just compiled the modules as part of the kernel using make menuconfig, but still my device cant use it, how can i make sure that the ath5k module is part of the kernel
[21:04] <FloodBot3> jazzyjef: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:04] <x007me> where can I find a list of fun servers hehe
[21:04] <fatninja> now
[21:04] <fatninja> everytime
[21:04] <fatninja> after the first restart
[21:04] <JetBoyJetGirl> great thanks again
[21:04] <fatninja> it gives me an error
[21:04] <Jordan_U> !enter | fatninja
[21:04] <fatninja> and gets me into initframs, the error is something like can't mount /dev/sda6
[21:04] <sraue> JetBoyJetGirl no problem :-)
[21:04] <fatninja> Jordan_U , ok.
[21:04] <danub> fatninja, <enter> isn't punctuation.
[21:05] <x007me> or perhaps a list of channels???
[21:05] <fatninja> danub: ok.
[21:05] <danub> lol jordan, didn't know there was a bot command for that ;)
[21:05] <Jordan_U> fatninja: I recommend uninstalling Wubi and instead installing Ubuntu in a standard dual boot configuration.
[21:05] <guntbert> x007me: not here - this is a support channel
[21:05] <ybit> ohsix: is there a way to get a list of the newest updates in apt?
[21:05] <fatninja> Well, why am I having problems with wubi and Windows 7
[21:06] <fatninja> I get a mount error
[21:06] <danub> ybit: you mean like 'sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get upgrade'?
[21:06] <ohsix> ybit: well you can try upgrading then kill it to get a list of new programs, but aptitude shows updated packages easier in a category view
[21:06] <ybit> i mean, i want a list of the updates to software in the repos
[21:06] <fatninja> The thing is that it has like two boot managers, first one I choose Windows 7 and Ubuntu 2nd one Ubunt 2.6.35....etc / Ubuntu ... Recovery and Windows 7 bootloader
[21:06] <_graham_> Hey - I don't suppose anyone knows any reason why PHP on Apache doesn't work in my userdir? It's *not* the fix to remove "php-admin-value engine Off" from /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php5.conf either as that doesn't make a bit of difference :(
[21:06] <ybit> i don't want to upgrade myself
[21:07] <Pici> _graham_: Does www-data have permission to execute your php scripts in those paths?
[21:07] <_graham_> Pici: To *execute* them? Not just read them?
[21:08] <Jordan_U> fatninja: Because unfortunately, through no person's fault, Wubi isn't particularly well maintained at the moment.
[21:08] <_graham_> I've never given execute permissions to a php script before, and they are globally readable
[21:08] <Pici> _graham_: sorry, read. Brain confusion there ;)
[21:08] <llutz> _graham_: no need for execution-bit
[21:09] <ohsix> does wubi need to be "maintained"? it just has / on ntfs-3g and the kernel on ntfs
[21:09] <danub> _graham_: apache has to be able to see the path also. you can just put a line in your php to run '/home/graham/runme.php' if your home directory isn't accessible to apache
[21:09] <fatninja> Jordan_U and is there any solution ?
[21:09] <inckie> im trying to install ubuntu 10.10 on my htpc, with only my TV connected, but when i boot up the start cd, the tv goes to sleep mode
[21:09] <fatninja> I'm sure there is.
[21:10] <_graham_> www-data user can def read the scripts - just confirmed that...
[21:10] <ohsix> fatninja: you can try booting the kernel manually from the grub prompt, or chroot into it from a livecd and update-grub/initramfs; dunno where instructions might be and i've no time to step by step it though
[21:10] <_graham_> Apache was offering the file as a download, so I was fairly certain that was the case anyway
[21:11] <Jordan_U> ohsix: There are some complications when finding the root.disk, especially in situation's with multiple disks/partitions. It's far from unsolveable, but it's a complex problem that requires dedicated time from an interested developer.
[21:11] <ohsix> fatninja: all your files should still be on your harddrive, you could just reinstall it as well; or access files you lost access to
[21:11] <fatninja> ohsix: thanks for the response, but I will install a fresh copy of it via DVD
[21:11] <fatninja> the thing is that
[21:11] <fatninja> I want to put it in a ntfs partition
[21:11] <fatninja> is that possible ?
[21:11] <danub> _graham_: ok, so we know it has access to it. now, what is the extension of the script? php? php3? html? htm? what?
[21:11] <ohsix> Jordan_U: ah; that would be the windows side of things then, thanks for the tip
[21:11] <Jordan_U> ohsix: You're welcome.
[21:12] <_graham_> index.php is the file in question for now
[21:12] <_graham_> Just straight "php" extension
[21:12] <ohsix> Jordan_U: you could brute force it and add labels for everything in the menu entry for it in grub though :D
[21:12] <danub> fatninja: no. you cant put linux on the ntfs partition. the installer will seperate and repartition the disk (windows will be ntfs, linux will be ext3 (unless you choose different)
[21:12] <fatninja> danub: I realized that was a dumb question afterwards
[21:13] <fatninja> thanks
[21:13] <ohsix> you _can_ put it on there; but its silly and would be nothing but trouble for your effort
[21:13] <Jordan_U> ohsix: I can think of ways that it could be solved cleanly, and I probably should take the time to fix it myself but I don't personally use windows and I'm not particularly motivated :(
[21:13] <danub> _graham_: and .php is listed in the php config?
[21:14] <ohsix> Jordan_U: well with grub2 brute forcing it would be a pretty decent compromise; once you boot into linux and grub is updated it'll obviously be able to find the image directly, so it'd just be ugly for a little while after install
[21:14] <_graham_> I thought so, but badly it seems.....
[21:15] <_graham_> <FilesMatch "\.ph(p3?|tml)$"> is what it said before
[21:15] <_graham_> <FilesMatch "\.php$"> is what it says now, and it all works :)
[21:15] <danub> if the browser is prompting to download the file, it means that apache isn't handing the script off the php intrepreter or its filetype isn't listed in the php intrepretter as a type it should intrepret
[21:15] <Jordan_U> ohsix: Making an ugly hack like that would likely not take any less time / effort than doing it properly.
[21:15] <danub> _graham_: so your up and running now?
[21:15] <_graham_> Yes - thanks :)
[21:16] <ohsix> hrm dunno about ugly; you can't reliably get the info on one side, but you can bridge to the other side where you can; it'd all be in one menu entry in the grub menu & not user visible
[21:16] <craigbass1976> I'm looking for a crm that is not sugar or vtiger.  I just installed obm, wondering if there's something else.
[21:16] <ohsix> hm nevermind that though, wubi uses window's bootloader doesn't it?
[21:17] <danub> craigbass1976: depends on the backend DB you want to use
[21:17] <fatninja> well
[21:17] <fatninja> the first starts the windows boot loader
[21:17] <craigbass1976> danub, I'd rather mysql
[21:17] <fatninja> that goes to
[21:17] <fatninja> BCD ID: {c3319261-3911-11e0-94c4-001e8c7df38d}
[21:17] <fatninja> Drive: E:\
[21:17] <fatninja> Bootloader Path: \ubuntu\winboot\wubildr.mbr
[21:17] <FloodBot3> fatninja: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:17] <Jordan_U> ohsix: It loads grub via the windows bootloader. If you'd like to put in the time to get this working properly I'd love to help out.
[21:17] <fatninja> Jordan_U I'd like that.
[21:18] <danub> craigbass1976: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_content_management_systems
[21:18] <fatninja> Jordan_U only if that is not a problem for you.
[21:18] <craigbass1976> danub, I thought crm was contact management type apps
[21:18] <Jordan_U> fatninja: Not at all.
[21:19] <danub> ohh, crm
[21:19] <danub> thought you said cms
[21:19] <fatninja> Jordan_U , how do I start ?
[21:19] <Jordan_U> fatninja: We should probably move this discussion to #ubuntu-devel.
[21:19] <ohsix> shrug, if it chainloads grub then it doesn't matter how ugly it is :D
[21:19] <danub> , lol ignore me. im a dumbass and got nothing for you on crm.
[21:20] <Klipox> Hi.. i have a problem with my swap partition not mounting at boot. http://pastebin.com/3VzjCBiq
[21:20] <craigbass1976> danub, no problem; there are too many acronyms in the world I think
[21:21] <ohsix> Klipox: you might have hit a bug with swap images, and had your swap guid change
[21:21] <ohsix> Klipox: you can get the original guid from /etc/fstab and mkswap -U <uuid> can assign it back
[21:22] <ohsix> this is the best way to fix it; as the guid is stored for hibernation in another file, and if it changes it breaks that as well
[21:22] <Klipox> ohsix: Oh ok. So how do i get the new UUID from the swap?
[21:23] <Klipox> ohsix: Or shall i write the same as in fstab?
[21:23] <ohsix> blkid can show all the uuid's, you can compare them against /etc/fstab
[21:23] <ohsix> no, update the swap with the guid, not the other way around
[21:23] <Joepie> Q: is there a way to bypass tap0 and "route" it to eth0 for sabnzbdplus ?
[21:23] <afrodeity> is there any reason pbuilder is not showing up in the repos?
[21:24] <Klipox> ohsix: Ok. Thanks alot :)
[21:24] <ohsix> no problem :} it'd be nice if it'd do it automatially, as like i said; it breaks suspend, but alas it doesn't
[21:24] <danub> has anyone had any experience growing a ubuntu disk running in vmware?
[21:25] <KB1JWQ> danub: Sure, but it's easier if you're using LVM. :-)
[21:25] <ohsix> shrizzug
[21:25] <danub> KB1JWQ: what do you mean? what lvm?
[21:25] <ohsix> probably helps more if you have an fs you can grow
[21:26] <karabaja4> someone write my name please :)
[21:26] <KB1JWQ> ohsix: Yeah, growfs is nice.
[21:26] <mickster04> karabaja4:
[21:26] <Pici> afrodeity: It should be there.
[21:26] <Rico> sosaited: ?
[21:26] <ohsix> pantomiming detected
[21:26] <Pici> !info pbuilder | afrodeity
[21:26] <Rico> sosaited: *
[21:26] <danub> well i have an ext3 fs for it, and I know i have done it once in the past, but that was back when it was at 8.04
[21:27] <Grishnackh666> hi there
[21:27] <afrodeity> Pici: sudo apt-get install pbuilder  returns "Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "pbuilder""
[21:27] <afrodeity> Pici: its supposed to be in main
[21:27] <LittleJakub> how does THIS work? :P
[21:28] <Pici> afrodeity: Does apt-cache policy pbuilder  work?
[21:28] <danub> bumped it from 6 gigs to 10... now that i updated to 10.10, im at about 9 gigs used, i want to grow it to 15. i can add the space via vmware, but i cant remember how to make ubuntu see the extra space
[21:28] <Grishnackh666> when setting up a system config in mythbuntu the policykit pops up and asks for the root passwort...i have none?! what to do?
[21:28] <afrodeity> Pici: N: Unable to locate package pbuilder
[21:28] <Pici> afrodeity: What architecture are you on?
[21:28] <afrodeity> 10:10
[21:28] <calum> Would running Ubuntu as a web server in a DMZ be a bad idea, in terms of network exploits?
[21:29] <Pici> afrodeity: What does uname -m  report?
[21:29] <ohsix> danub: resize2fs
[21:29] <danub> calum, running any webserver in the dmz has potential to be exploited (even not dmz'd)
[21:29] <Klipox> ohsix: When i run mkswap -U 1012e79e-ca93-47f5-914f-4094d55b3c62 i get "mkswap: error: Nowhere to set up swap on?"
[21:29] <afrodeity> Pici: i686
[21:29] <ohsix> but there's also the commandline version of parted; or the gui version, just runs the stuff for you
[21:30] <ohsix> Klipox: you need to specify the swap partition as well
[21:30] <Pici> afrodeity: hmm...
[21:30] <calum> danub: So if I keep up patches and run a firewall to block all ports except 80, that will help?
[21:30] <IdleOne> Pici: I got a feeling he still has CD as source. might not be on the CD
[21:30] <gr8Q> Since few days i get afc: error control file when i connect a iphone what should i do
[21:30] <anonboots> I still cant get my Deskjet 1000 to work. I downloaded and installed the latest HPLIP, with no success. What should I do next?
[21:30] <calum> I'm just wondering if gufw will do the trick
[21:30] <danub> if you just keep it patched you should be fine
[21:30] <ohsix> calum: if you block all but 80 how will you administer it
[21:30] <ohsix> calum: just stop services you aren't using
[21:31] <Klipox> ohsix: Oh, Right :P
[21:31] <calum> Don't I only need 80 open for the server?
[21:31] <triptec> what is the prefered ftpd?
[21:31] <triptec> pro or vs?
[21:31] <Pici> IdleOne: Thats entirely possible.
[21:31] <afrodeity> IdleOne: will check, thnks
[21:31] <Jare_> yup, if you want only http access
[21:31] <Pici> IdleOne: Good thinking :)
[21:31] <IdleOne> I have my moments :)
[21:31] <calum> thats the only public internet service I want to run
[21:32] <danub> the problem with firewalling your web-server is that it makes it easier to ddos you. and if you run some "auto-blocking" app that reads your logs, you need to make sure it can parse logs correctly or someone can effectively lock everyone out of your own server
[21:32] <afrodeity> IdleOne: Its listed, but not checked, so don't think so
[21:32] <IdleOne> afrodeity: sudo apt-get update & apt-cache search pbuilder
[21:32] <IdleOne> if it isn't there there is something very not right with your repos
[21:33] <calum> so that wouldn't stop a botnet with traffic headed for port 80?
[21:33] <ohsix> you should just not run services you aren't using
[21:33] <danub> calum: is this a personal site? or company site?
[21:33] <Jare> calum: you might also be interested having shell/nx access (ssh 22) and https (443)
[21:33] <calum> I intend to only open 1 port and run http only
[21:34] <calum> personal server
[21:34] <danub> then you shouldn't have to worry about botnets unless you piss off someone you shouldn't have
[21:34] <ohsix> you probably have more to worry about from scripts running on the web server than anything else by an order of magnitude
[21:34] <calum> I do intend to run a cgi script on the server
[21:35] <danub> calum: just make sure your system stays patched and your fine
[21:35] <ohsix> my fine!
[21:35] <calum> I am sure I have the latest updates for the moment
[21:35] <calum> but I will keep checking
[21:35] <danub> then you should be good
[21:35] <danub> calum, just put the updating in root's cron
[21:36] <calum> thanks for your advice danub
[21:36] <danub> have it run every day at 00
[21:36] <ohsix> that's a bad idea
[21:36] <danub> ohsix: y?
[21:36] <ohsix> because you don't want everything just applied; theres a script for servers that do updates intelligently
[21:37] <ohsix> forget the name of it, b ut it's pulled in when you install ubuntu-server
[21:37] <Jare> calum: anyway if you really want to inspect the traffic and/or selectively block ip addresses/packets, then you should make yourself familiar with Snort ids/ips
[21:37] <abusaif> hi every body
[21:37] <calum> are updates for Apache applied through Ubuntu's updater as usual?
[21:37] <mickster04> calum: if you didn't just download a .deb, yes
[21:37] <stephans> does anyone know when a fix for nm-applet will be out? I have a huge issue with mem leak... and when I went to post the issue in ubuntus ticket system there were already lots of others that had done so... This is a bad problem. 1.5 GIG after leaving the pc on for a day...
[21:37] <ohsix> snort is kind of unmaintained, seriously, the biggest problem you can have is the scripts running on the server
[21:38] <calum> I got Apache from the repositories
[21:38] <ohsix> stephans: how did you measure the "leak"?
[21:38] <mickster04> calum: then as the repo's get updated, so will you
[21:38] <danub> calum: then it will update with the system updates
[21:38] <calum> ok thanks
[21:38] <abusaif> i lose the panel and  i need to fix it ,can any body help me
[21:38] <stephans> ohsix, by watching it in top for instance
[21:39] <ohsix> stephans: but, to answer your question, there is a network manager ppa that has updated stuff, but what you're seeing probably isn't a leak; a lot of people think a slowly growing VM size is a leak
[21:39] <abusaif> ????
[21:39] <stephans> it keeps growing endlessly
[21:39] <IdleOne> !resetpanel | abusaif
[21:39] <calum> cheers all for help
[21:39] <ohsix> stephans: well there is an end :] try looking how much memory it's actually using with smem
[21:39] <eross> i do have a question, I can connect via DHCP wirelessly to the router, but if I try to go static it won't connect. I've tried editing /etc/network/interfaces and using the network manager windshieldwasher icon
[21:39] <stephans> ohsix, ok I will... but it does reach the point where the computer is unusable
[21:40] <IdleOne> afrodeity: any success?
[21:40] <abusaif> thanks
[21:40] <IdleOne> abusaif: welcome
[21:40] <ohsix> stephans: suffice it to say the VM size is a useless number, it's really only something useful to track large and quick changes, it doesn't convey any actual information about memory use
[21:40] <TerribleTech> anyone run their own Ubuntu Server?
[21:41] <Jordan_U> !anyone | TerribleTech
[21:41] <eross> i did in 8.04, now it seems it has grown more difficult
[21:41] <mickster04> TerribleTech: yes
[21:42] <ohsix> stephans: nm-applet is using 4.7 megs here, bur top says 287m virt, it's a big gap
[21:42] <TerribleTech> thanks ubottu and mickster04 for your reply. I am only curious what you use your servers for.
[21:42] <abusaif> its give this message ?? no process found
[21:42] <EmuAlert> How do you delete files so that they DON'T go into the .Trash-1000 folder on a removable drive?
[21:43] <stephans> ohsix, OK... I have smem now... will check
[21:43] <mickster04> TerribleTech: i did, i don't anymore, don't have router access, port forwarding would be needed, anyway, this is off topic really
[21:43] <mickster04> EmuAlert: shift-del?
[21:43] <ohsix> stephans: free -m will show you how much swap is in use; if its becoming unusuable after a while and swap is full, it's probably something other than this
[21:44] <adub> my /dev/video0 just suddenly disappeared after installing lastest also drivers
[21:44] <TerribleTech> mickster04 what did you use it for? I'm considering setting up an web server, just for development.
[21:44] <EmuAlert> mickster04: Thanks
[21:44] <stephans> ohsix, got it
[21:44] <adub> why would /dev/video0 just suddenly disappear??
[21:45] <djoe> hello
[21:45] <abusaif> i try the code  the code to get the panel but it give this message no process found
[21:45] <ohsix> stephans: if it _is_ swapping, iotop will tell you the programs that are being paged in/out
[21:45] <otay> How to I install a local .deb file so the dependencies will be resolved for me?
[21:45] <pep`> hi
[21:45] <djoe> im djoe from algeria
[21:45] <mickster04> TerribleTech: lamp, email, ssh, uhm i had ottd server running on it, samba....
[21:46] <Joepie> Q: how to restart interfaces ?
[21:46] <joewefwef> whats the n00b channel?
[21:46] <stephans> ohsix, iotop? Ok I will have to look for that one! sounds usefull...
[21:46] <Linfert> *join ubuntu-fr
[21:46] <mickster04> joewefwef: this is the noob channel :D
[21:46] <mickster04> djoe: welcome
[21:47] <joewefwef> whayy
[21:47] <TerribleTech> mickster04: This won't be online or public. It will be an internal test server
[21:47] <pep`> does anyone know of a program or script (maybe using dia?) that can generate a process diagram/flowchart from C source code?
[21:47] <ohsix> stephans: it could be that you just don't have enough memory for your average working set though; if that's the case you'll need more, or find a way to weed out stuff you don't really need
[21:47] <mickster04> TerribleTech: ok
[21:47] <ohsix> smem will show you the largest memory consumers too
[21:47] <guampa> pep`: doxygen
[21:47] <djoe> @ mickster : thank u
[21:47] <pep`> doxygen.... I will check it out
[21:48] <guampa> also http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3150900/is-there-any-free-c-c-code-to-flowchart-generator-tool-available-on-the-net
[21:48] <TerribleTech> mickster04: lamp and ssh sounds the way to go. of course ftp might help.
[21:48] <guampa> and related q's
[21:48] <mickster04> TerribleTech: if you set up ssh and then use sftp it's the one and same really :p
[21:48] <mickster04> !pm | djoe
[21:48] <otay> ahh.. I have to do a two-step process to auto install local debs.. hmm
[21:48] <TerribleTech> mickster04: thanks for the advice
[21:49] <djoe> ;-)
[21:49] <mickster04> TerribleTech: very good
[21:49] <pep`> thx guampa
[21:49] <guampa> np
[21:49] <alpha7> ubuntu 64 bits vs 32bits any differences?
[21:50] <Logan_WP> !amd64 | alpha7
[21:50] <stephans> ohsix, nm-applet --sm-disable             0   713772   714402   724244
[21:50] <GBGames> I'm using the time command to see how long it takes for an application to run, and the output gives three numbers: real, user, sys. I'm assuming user means the application's CPU time, and real gives me the actual clock time, but maybe I'm wrong. Is it reasonable to use "real" as "how long it takes based on the clock on the wall"?
[21:50] <alpha7> So of my drivers are not working with 64 bits ubuntu
[21:51] <ohsix> alpha7: lots of differences, practical differences are silly stuff like flash in the browser
[21:51] <stephans> ohsix, seems a little over the top to me
[21:51] <stephans> ohsix, no pun intended
[21:51] <joewefwef> 32bit drivers seem easier to get hold of
[21:51] <joewefwef> how much ram can 32bit ubuntu address?
[21:51] <ohsix> stephans: nice, so it is really going nuts, do you have wifi & is it constantly trying to connect? or vpn or any other "interesting" connection types
[21:51] <eross> joewefwef - 2Gb ?
[21:51] <alpha7> Is it possible I have 64 ubuntu and running 32 bit firefox or software or drivers?
[21:52] <mickster04> alpha7: yes
[21:52] <ohsix> alpha7: not drivers, a driver that works on 32bit but not 64bit is weird; is it a proprietary driver?
[21:52] <Jordan_U> joewefwef: For linux I can't think of any driver that is available for 32 bit which is not also available for 64 bit. The open source community tends to care a lot about 64 bit and portability in general.
[21:52] <alpha7> It's for printer.
[21:53] <alpha7> and I always get werid bugs on firefox
[21:53] <Raj007> My Brother's 32-bit driver are working fine on 64-bit ubunty
[21:53] <Raj007> Brother as in printer
[21:53] <alpha7> esp. it show this black bar when i highligh links
[21:53] <stephans> ohsix, well I do have wifi... on a lenovo T400... I usually have Hide My Ass (HMA)running bu not now...
[21:53] <stephans> HMA is an anon, vpn solution
[21:54] <ohsix> ah
[21:54] <ohsix> well, try disabling things one by one and finding out which part does it
[21:54] <alpha7> Is there a command to flush out every settings and programs and start out fresh/
[21:54] <ohsix> you can kill nm-applet fine, it'll restart
[21:54] <aeon-ltd> alpha7: heh reinstall?
[21:54] <MC8> lol
[21:54] <adub> http://paste.ubuntu.com/567864/    <--- there is a paste of my dmesg output  my /dev/video0 is no longer showing up for some reason
[21:54] <stephans> ohsix, HMA uses the Open VPN even under windows and mac...
[21:55] <ohsix> alpha7: start out as a user account or the entire install? it's easy to do either but why
[21:55] <bp0> is computer janitor completely useless or just mostly useless?
[21:55] <stephans> ohsix, would continuous connect attempts mess up nm-applet?
[21:55] <alpha7> ohsix there this weird program doesn't exit properly when i restart
[21:55] <ohsix> stephans: well, i didn't mean hma in particular; i mean like disable wifi scanning if you're not using wifi, disable other connection types and see if it goes away
[21:56] <alpha7> it always bugs me when it ask me to kill task or ignore or restart now
[21:56] <ohsix> stephans: anything that's done over and over could magnify a small leak
[21:56] <alpha7> something like that
[21:56] <ohsix> alpha7: what program?
[21:56] <ruffleS> I'm getting this error @ every boot: FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/<IP_ADDRESS>-generic/modules.dep: No such file or directory on ubuntu 10.10. anyone?!
[21:56] <Hellsnake_> ??
[21:56] <alpha7> Doesn't say I'm going create new account.
[21:58] <alpha7> Is bleachbit is good for removing unused programs or files
[21:58] <stephans> ohsix, OK i will sleuth around and see... i have installed several items... even some KDE stuff, mybe that would include net software conflicting. Also I installed a Bank ID app for smart cards and tried to force it to work in my 64 bit ubuntu even if only 32 bit was supported... I had to replace some crypto libs.. which may ofcourse be in use by wifi...
[21:59] <ohsix> alpha7: it's probably better to figure out how to clean up things yourself before you let some program do it
[21:59] <alpha7> it says 'A program is still running
[22:00] <alpha7> and program name is Unknown ' Not responding
[22:00] <scampbell> given upstart on maverick, I have the two packages 'postgresql-server' and 'libvirt-bin' installed by apt-get.  Postgresql has been configured to listen on the virtual network configured by libvirt-bin, however, postgresql is getting started before the network is up.  postgresql is an init script and libvirt is a upstart  file.  How could I fix my problem?
[22:00] <ohsix> does it do that after you've already closed everything?
[22:00] <ohsix> if yes, close everything but a terminal and check out the output of xlsclients
[22:03] <Difesa> Hi, Im trying to install ubuntu 10,10 (i386 live cd and amd64 text based) on a mid '09 macbook, I've attempted to follow the instructions in the official ubuntu documentation and various other resources (http://tiny.cc/ijokl, http://tiny.cc/3m4b3, http://tiny.cc/cp9ug).  Each time i pass the grub screen, regardless, it seems, of what i do, i almost immediately black screen.   Does anyone have any advice?
[22:04] <fruitwerks> Call to undefined function pg_connect(), but I have php5-pgsql installed and I see it in phpinfo?
[22:05] <scampbell> fruitwerks: I would guess the #php could solve that in short order.
[22:05] <UberGoober> hi, could someone direct me to power settings (hibernate, etc) in Xubuntu? Linux noob here
[22:06] <Guest88261> Hi. How can I set double click for left down corner of synaptics touchpad?
[22:06] <scampbell> ubergoober:  system -> preferences -> power settings
[22:06] <maedox> Difesa: probably some "unsupported" gfx card. Search google for your gfx card with ubuntu and black screen. You might have to disable some module on startup, or install a driver from single-user mode.
[22:07] <scampbell> ,er  system -> preferecnes -> power management
[22:07] <UberGoober> scampbell: no Preferences under System
[22:07] <Jordan_U> Difesa: Ignore any guide that suggests installing grub to a partition rather than the mbr, and any guide that recommends manual partitioning but does not explain that you should create a BIOS boot partition.
[22:08] <Jordan_U> Difesa: Ubuntu's installer does the right thing if you use automatic partitioning.
[22:08] <KjetilK> my default kernel isn't booted even after a delay, and I really don't understand the grub2 config. This used to be so easy, how do I do this in grub2?
[22:08] <StrangeCharm> seahorse became unresponsive, and i ended the process. now it doesn't show any private or public keys. gpg --list-private-keys returns my private keys, but --list-public-keys lists nothing. what might have gone wrong, and how can i fix it?
[22:09] <Difesa> Jordan_U:  in attempting to just boot the LiveCD and try ubuntu i get black screen.  Maedox: Will try, thanks
[22:10] <adamruffolo> Don't know if I'm in the right place.  I'm trying to register my nickname with #backtrack-linux but seem to be failing miserably.  Any help?  I can't seem to find a direct answer on the net
[22:10] <mevvis> Difesa, its imposible push ESC and use boot options?
[22:10] <UberGoober> scampbell: found it, under Applications/Settings/Xfce4 Settings Manager - thanks
[22:11] <scampbell> UberGoober: If you choose to run XFCE (that's fine). Do tell folks when you ask.  We will usually assume you are running the default gnome.   You'll probably get better answers :)
[22:12] <tomreyn> adamruffolo: that's obviously offtopic here. ask in #freenode
[22:12] <canthus13> Anyone know how to get wicd to show up in the notification area in gnome?
[22:12] <Difesa> mevvis: I haven't tried that, what would i look for n that menu?
[22:12] <UberGoober> I said "Xubuntu," Xfce is default, no?
[22:12] <canthus13> UberGoober: yup.

[22:16] <maco2> diphthong: hit ctrl+alt+f1
[22:16] <seidos> diphthong: i don't recall.  i have done it before.  there was info in the forums/on the web
[22:17] <bastidrazor> diphthong: in /etc/default/grub remove the "quiet splash"  then sudo update-grub

[22:27] <Jeruvy> KnifeySpooney: did you check the user profile cache?
[22:27] <ciss> hi, i have some directory names containing umlauts that somehow got messed up while they were being edited on osx. i cannot access the folders by typing the names directly, instead i have to use the ascii representation and tab complete.
[22:27] <ciss> is there a tool or way to fix this?
[22:28] <KnifeySpooney> Jeruvy, where exactly is that? I scanned over the ~/.adobe and ~/.macromedia folders but wasn't sure where to look
[22:28] <ciss> bash locate settings are UTF-8
[22:28] <ciss> sorry, "locale"
[22:28] <Jeruvy> KnifeySpooney: in .mozilla,
[22:28] <wildbat> ciss: just rename them~
[22:28] <Eighteens> hello, thank yor considering my question. I had 10.10 running on my machine, from a prior upgrade from 10.04, then 10.41, however i got the urge to install natty (11.04), the problem is when it rebooted after install, all i was left with is a bouncy box on my screen stating "Monitor out of sync" --While i can't see the boot menu, i have the option to use my finger, and move the down arrow and guess on the fact it might land on my win
[22:29] <talineo> hi, I try and solve a problem on a machine recently upgraded to lucid lynx. the problem is the same as described here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8761758 . I have read it should be due to kernel < 2.6.32 but the kernel version in grub seems correct
[22:29] <talineo> any ideas
[22:29] <talineo> ?
[22:29] <Jeruvy> !natty | Eighteens
[22:30] <KnifeySpooney> Jeruvy, thanks, I found it now. I guess Chromium saves the videos in its cache folder instead.
[22:30] <Eighteens> is there any way to go back to 10.10 without loosing my /home/user and all it's files
[22:30] <ciss> wildbat: thanks, i'll try that
[22:30] <Jeruvy> Eighteens: just back up your home dir and reinstall.
[22:31] <kerneltrouble> Hello. Whenever I boot my computer, I get an error like "fatal: could not load /lib/modules/2.6.xx-xx-generic/modules.dep" in which xx are kernel numbers. I have Googled, and the problem was reported on the forums, but there was no known (usable) solution. Can anybody here help me fix it, please? :)
[22:31] <EXio4> hi
[22:31] <Eighteens> thanks Jeruvy, i'll give that a try
[22:31] <lcb> hi. someone pls suggest me what to do with this error while compiling a 'package requires Sys::Mmap for mapped memory'
[22:31] <joelmob> how do i create a new user in ubuntu from terminal
[22:31] <bastidrazor> joelmob: sudo adduser newusername
[22:32] <ActionParsnip> !adduser
[22:32] <EXio4> hi, a "rm -rf" is a joke, licuadocorazon know me :)
[22:32] <Jeruvy> lcb that sounds like a perl module try googling for that exactly and it should point you
[22:32] <licuadocorazon> yes, is true, is a joke
[22:32] <ActionParsnip> Eighteens: your backups will make it a lot easier
[22:32] <EXio4> juabn1: hi!
[22:33] <juabn1> hi exio4
[22:33] <functor> got latest ubuntu for two netbooks, on acer aspire it freezes randomly, on eeepc the wifi randomly restarts and doesnt show correct signal
[22:33] <Percius> Anyone know how to disable a USB device in ubuntu
[22:33] <lcb> Jeruvy«  thanks. i know.. i'm googling and i see different approaches. i'm using natty and probably this is an ongoing test issue.
[22:33] <EXio4> leanfaust: hey, run rm.. XD
[22:33] <functor> xp works fine on both
[22:33] <ActionParsnip> functor: test the ram on the acer
[22:33] <functor> xp works fine on both <
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> functor: which model eeepc?
[22:34] <leanfaust> debian is the best
[22:34] <EXio4> yeah!
[22:34] <Percius> If my bluetooth (internal usb) is enabled I cannot connect to wifi, If I disable bluetooth in Bios I can... The problem is that I run multiple OSes and dont want to disable bluetooth in bios
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> leanfaust: maybe, but debian is offtopic here
[22:34] <leanfaust> only ubuntu in conversation?
[22:34] <lcb> leanfaust«  a bit outdated :o
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> leanfaust: yes, this is ubuntu support only
[22:34] <ecinx3> hello. I've restarted my computer and now I don't have any taskbar, and don't know how to get to the terminal either
[22:35] <Jordan_U> !ot | leanfaust
[22:35] <EXio4> ActionParsnip: you kick me? is only a joke a "rm -**" :)
[22:35] <leanfaust> ok thanks
[22:35] <EXio4> ActionParsnip: he know me :)
[22:35] <ActionParsnip> EXio4: i dont have kick powers
[22:35] <Percius> ecinx3: Try ctrl f1 to get a terminal
[22:35] <EXio4> ActionParsnip: ok, :(
[22:35] <ActionParsnip> ecinx3: CTRL+ATL+T
[22:35] <ecinx3> doesn't work, neither does alt f2
[22:35] <functor> ActionParsnip: same thing happened with previous acer aspire - the eeepc is 901
[22:35] <ActionParsnip> ecinx3: or try CTRL+ALT+F1
[22:35] <Wulfy> ActionParsnip,  to be fair with the ubotto line ubuntu related debian could be considerd "related" :)
[22:35] <ecinx3> Ctrl alt t worked, thanks
[22:35] <leanfaust> how i can create distribution  ubuntu based?
[22:36] <LordVorp> is there a keypress that will let me run an arbitrary command, in Unity?
[22:36] <ActionParsnip> ecinx3: sweet, kill gnome-panel and it should restart
[22:36] <Jordan_U> EXio4: Just because he knows better doesn't mean that some other unhappy soul won't try it just to see what it does.
[22:36] <StrangeCharm> seahorse became unresponsive, and i ended the process. now it doesn't show any private or public keys. gpg --list-private-keys returns my private keys, but --list-public-keys lists nothing. what might have gone wrong, and how can i fix it?
[22:36] <functor> ActionParsnip: Is the correct wifi modules in the latest ubuntu for EeePC 901?
[22:36] <Eighteens> I tried booting my 10.10 cd, and it got to the spot where you can choose f6 for other modes, and usually i have to choose, nolapic, noapic, and nomodeset. So i chose those options like usual, then a few seconds had elapsed, now i get a black screen saying "no live file systems found" or something to that affect.
[22:36] <ecinx3> how do i do that?
[22:36] <ecinx3> I don't think i'm on gnome, btw
[22:36] <EXio4> Jordan_U: ok, :)
[22:37] <sharav> Hi all
[22:37] <Difesa> I have been trying to install 10,10 on a mid 09' macbook.  I read somewhere that enabling the 195 drivers will enable my nvidia gf9400m card (fixing an ongoing blackscreen issue ive been having.  How do i enable those drivers?
[22:37] <ecinx3> looks like gnome though
[22:37] <sharav> Java 3d application crashed. How to solve?
[22:37] <kerneltrouble> is it normal lately for kernel related errors to show up at boot times (for example something like kernel 2.6.35-24: file doesn't exist or not found)
[22:37] <ActionParsnip> functor: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks    references the wifi in the eeepc
[22:37] <EXio4> ikonia: please avise a "kick" knew a this "law" :)
[22:38] <ikonia> EXio4: what ?
[22:38] <sharav> my gpu is AMD radeon 6370
[22:38] <EXio4> not knew*
[22:38] <CoinOp> Jordan_U: That link you sent me did the trick, Grub is back up and running, both Ubuntu and Windows are booting perfectly. Thank you for all of your help. Awesome of you.
[22:38] <Wulfy> whats the blackberry support like in ubuntu btw?
[22:38] <korovamilk> hello
[22:38] <ikonia> Wulfy: terrible
[22:38] <EXio4> ikonia: my english is poor, sorry :)
[22:38] <Jordan_U> CoinOp: You're welcome.
[22:38] <leanfaust>  is bad english XD
[22:38] <ActionParsnip> kerneltrouble: websearch for the exact error and you may find bugs
[22:38] <Wulfy> ikonia,  rats
[22:38] <EXio4> bad? very bad :P
[22:38] <sharav> Has anyone meet java 3d issue?
[22:38] <functor> ActionParsnip: The other thing I am having trouble with is Bluetooth not working properly with stuff like tethered 3g
[22:38] <ikonia> EXio4: stop making random comments please
[22:39] <EXio4> ikonia: ok :(
[22:39] <functor> On the 901
[22:39] <kerneltrouble> ActionParsnip: I Googled and found bug reports, but no solution...
[22:39] <Percius> Anyone here know how to completely disable a USB device in linux? Blacklisting the modules doesn't seem to fix it
[22:39] <ecinx3> so how do i restart unity or w/e is supposed to be running
[22:39] <thauriswulfa> QUESTION: anyone know any package to open djvu files? tried document viewer but not working
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> kerneltrouble: then keep an eye on the bug, see if it gets resolved
[22:40] <iceroot_> thauriswulfa: sudo apt-cache search djvu is listening some tools
[22:40] <korovamilk> just wondering what irc client is using people around.. i'm actually using kvirc because i'm switching from a kde environment... what about a good gnome based irc client?
[22:41] <korovamilk> (running ubuntu 10.10 btw)
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> korovamilk: i use pidgin personally
[22:41] <iceroot_> thauriswulfa: e.g. djview3 and djview4
[22:41] <functor> ActionParsnip: Seems to be resolved in 10.04 - but I still cant see my signal - unless there is something wrong with whatever gnome is using to display (its always 100%)
[22:41] <iceroot_> korovamilk: xchat is imo the best gui client
[22:41] <thauriswulfa> iceroot_:but software centre says dependencies not met
[22:41] <ActionParsnip> functor: could try using wicd or wifi-radar
[22:42] <Wulfy> i would love to have a word with the guy who told me to use mutt's email client as apprently its feature rich and comparible to Outlook
[22:42] <korovamilk> ActionParsnip: does pidgin works with dcc file transfers?
[22:42] <EXio4> good bye
[22:42] <EXio4> :)
[22:42] <iceroot_> Wulfy: every mail-client sucks, this one just sucks less
[22:42] <kerneltrouble> ActionParsnip: ah, shoot.. I plan on keeping my eye on those threads, just thought there might be some kind of unofficial fix or something. Thanks though :)
[22:43] <iceroot_> thauriswulfa: evince is also listed
[22:43] <ecinx3> How do I get the taskbar back?
[22:43] <korovamilk> iceroot: i'll give xchat another chance ;)
[22:43] <Chelsea__> Hi all, I've been meaning to ask, everytime I start conky (default values, ugly black screen) in Xmonad, cpu-usage goes to 100%. Seen it in Ubuntu 10.4, Debian 5.0 stable, Virtualboxed Ubuntu 10.10.
[22:43] <ActionParsnip> !panel | ecinx3
[22:43] <raisin123> hello. Can anyone tell me how to install KDE desktop environment. I have 10.04 LTS with GNOME. I want GNOME and KDE both.
[22:43] <Chelsea__> Am I the only one?
[22:43] <Wulfy> iceroot_,  shame trade descriptions dont apply to the description i was given for mutts
[22:43] <ActionParsnip> !fixpanel
[22:44] <SuperPaco69> how can I know if my processor is SSE2??
[22:44] <mickster04> raisin123: sudo apt-get install kde-desktop   ?
[22:44] <iceroot_> SuperPaco69: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[22:44] <ecinx3> raisin look for kubuntu desktop in synaptic
[22:44] <ecinx3> raisin123:
[22:44] <iceroot_> raisin123: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[22:44] <ecinx3> !panel
[22:44] <raisin123> mickster04: Is it that simple? are you sure?
[22:44] <leanfaust> is better  install xubuntu
[22:45] <mickster04> raisin123: use synaptics to search for it
[22:45] <functor> ActionParsnip: seems Acer Aspire One 110 and a newer EeePC is known for freezes
[22:45] <raisin123> Will it ask me on login screen, which desktop to use?
[22:45] <mickster04> raisin123: just to be safe
[22:45] <leanfaust> *kubuntu
[22:45] <mickster04> raisin123: yeah
[22:45] <iceroot_> Wulfy: if you are searching for a mailclient with groupware-features i think kmail/kontact is worth a try
[22:45] <raisin123> mickster: how to search on synaptics?
[22:45] <leanfaust> download the cd of kubuntu and install
[22:45] <ecinx3> raisin123: kubuntu desktop
[22:45] <SuperPaco69> iceroot_, thanks a lot!!!!
[22:45] <CaptainLexington> Hey all. I'm installing UNE on an Acer Aspire abd the install is cockblocking me.
[22:45] <leanfaust> install to terminal is very bad
[22:46] <Wulfy> iceroot_,  perfect just the job, the other idea i was playing with was to use a online version and just do everything web based
[22:46] <leanfaust> will have problem whit libraries
