[02:07] <Polarina> bbrazil, thanks alot. Going to change to ubuntu from gentoo. :)
[02:07] <a2xm> ic56:  should I try the NTFS writing?
[02:07] <Mofo> ompaul, i just boot cd and follow the 1 option
[02:07] <ompaul> Mofo, thank you one moment
[02:07] <ion> now I understand why Mofo was so upset...
[02:08] <XiXaQ> ion, why is that+
[02:08] <Hoxzer> :( me too he just wanted to get girl ONLY a giirl but was not given it
[02:08] <ic56> a2xm: no to NTFS writing.  You didn't have it enabled in your old fstab and we've discovered, since writting this version of the script, that it's still broken.  The version after this one will remove the option again.
[02:08] <tom12519> Hey guys, I have a USB mass storage device not being detected, any help?
[02:08] <Mofo> ion how..
[02:08] <ion> XiXaQ: I just wanna go bacck to my old system...breezy...
[02:09] <Mofo> ompaul, when prompted to configure time zone. my pc stop here on this 2nd  step.
[02:09] <sysKin> ok question: I'd like a desktop "shortcut" to a folder in SMB drive, but I don't seem to find the way
[02:09] <ompaul> tom12519, plug it out and and plug it in again and check on your desktop for an icon relating to it
[02:09] <someothernick> ion: why? whats wrong? explain the problem.
[02:09] <ion> XiXaQ: I'd done upgrade and nothing works properly now...is nightmare
[02:09] <lucas> whats scrollkeeper-up, and why is it using lots of cpu, and is it safe to kill it?
[02:09] <ompaul> Mofo, I an waiting on this box beside me
[02:09] <tom12519> ompaul, that did nothing
[02:10] <Mofo> did you read my another msg
[02:10] <Mofo> ompaul, when prompted to configure time zone. my pc stop here on this 2nd  step.
[02:10] <ompaul> Mofo, yes I have just booted this machine I am going to install on - please await
[02:10] <Mofo> ompaul, ok.
[02:11] <wendel> XiXaQ, What repo is opera in, I cant find it in synaptic
[02:11] <ompaul> Mofo, so click on the map whereever you are close to
[02:11] <Polarina> Kubuntu or ubuntu. What should I get? :)
[02:11] <ompaul> Mofo,  get your timezone right and then click on forward
[02:11] <ion> XiXaQ: please help me...
[02:11] <Mofo> ompaul, i can't click because the computer loading files. the mouse move very slowly
[02:11] <ompaul> tom12519, it is usb try every usb port on the machine
[02:12] <Mofo> ompaul, my cd rom keep reading data from disk.
[02:12] <dpn> wendel its deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/ etch non-free
[02:12] <XiXaQ> wendel, probably in restricted.
[02:12] <ompaul> Mofo, what speed is the cpu machine, what type is it, what size is the ram, and the hard drive?
[02:12] <XiXaQ> ion, will if I can.
[02:12] <bimberi> !info opera
[02:12] <ubotu> Package opera does not exist in dapper
[02:12] <poje> Could anyone help troubleshoot why installation of the ati driver got botched?
[02:12] <Polarina> Kubuntu or ubuntu. What should I get? :)
[02:12] <ion> Polarina: come this is easy one is kde and other is gnome
[02:12] <nlindblad> Polarina: Kubuntu
[02:13] <Baou> Polarina : It depends on your kind of use
[02:13] <dpn> Just download it from opera.com if you can't find it in the repos
[02:13] <Mofo> ompaul, its Dell Optiplex GX1. 600 Mhz Processor, 192mb of ram , 40 gb hard. Sony Dvd rom
[02:13] <atropos> hi all
[02:13] <ompaul> Mofo, okay the bad news is this it will take a long time for ubuntu to install on that
[02:13] <Polarina> I know that, I like KDE, but I like GNOME too..... I just cant decide myself what to get.
[02:13] <bbrazil> hmm, thats a heavily upgraded GX1
[02:13] <atropos> how to install a bin file?
[02:14] <Baou> Polarina : Gnome is not as heavy as KDE
[02:14] <tom12519> atropos, chmod +x it, then jsut ./filename
[02:14] <atropos> thanks tom12519
[02:14] <need_help> hi
[02:14] <ion> Polarina: so the only one system which I sure you can get both in the same desktop is FreeBSD.
[02:14] <Mofo> ompaul, its okay it can take long time to install i dont mind, but why its going very slow on the 2nd step where we set timezone.
[02:14] <tom12519> ompaul, still nothing, the gp2x just won't register
[02:14] <Polarina> I have a good computer here...
[02:14] <need_help> Is there any reason why my web browser won't upload a 29kb png image to my site (with a http upload form)?
[02:15] <XiXaQ> Polarina, I think KDE (Kubuntu) is prettier than Gnome (Ubuntu). I like Gnome better though. download both cds and run them in live mode for a while. See which you prefer. All software is available in both distros.
[02:15] <Mofo> ompaul, will you tell me the system requirements for the ubuntu.
[02:15] <nlindblad> my workflow is like 300% higher in KDE
[02:15] <ompaul> tom12519, then I suggest that you try a reboot - the USB bus may have trashed itself (it happens in rare cases now and again) start
[02:15] <a2xm> ic56: maybe i've to delete all the naming partitions on my /media first eh?
[02:15] <ompaul> Mofo, is that a P1 ?
[02:15] <tom12519> ompaul, tried a restart already, with the device connected, too, nothing.
[02:15] <Mofo> ompaul, no man com'on its p3 :)
[02:16] <need_help> tim12519: What's the problem?
[02:16] <ic56> a2xm: no deletion necessary.  We'll rename things to what you had in your fstab after.
[02:16] <a2xm> ic56:  and run the script again?
[02:16] <need_help> tom12519: What's the problem?
[02:16] <Mofo> ompaul, 5.10 breezy was working fine on it.
[02:16] <ic56> a2xm: only run the script once, then we'll manually adjust
[02:16] <a2xm> ic56:  in my fstab after?
[02:16] <tom12519> need_help, I connect my GP2X on USB mode, and *nothin* is registered, no storage device or anything
[02:16] <ic56> a2xm: yes
[02:16] <Polarina> Ok, thanks for all the help! :D
[02:16] <need_help> I had that problem
[02:16] <Mofo> ompaul, i used suse 9.2 on the same computer. it work fine
[02:17] <ompaul> Mofo, there is an option to check the media on boot up for dapper try that and check that the cd is okay
[02:17] <need_help> Linux wouldn't auto mount my USB hard drive - I ended up re-installing Linux
[02:17] <a2xm> ic56:  i've run it
[02:17] <someothernick> ion: no. Polarina you can install ubuntu then install kde from repos then you will be able to pick from gnome or kde at login screen
[02:17] <bimberi> wendel: Applications -> Add/Remove,  you'll find Opera there if "Show commercial applications" is checked
[02:17] <ion> guys how can I have my breezy again how can I get red of LTS or whatever....
[02:17] <a2xm> ic56:  and some of my min partisions are gone now
[02:17] <a2xm> ic56:  my win
[02:17] <Mofo> ompaul, cd is okay even i downloaded from ubuntu website for making sure i got the correct cds but same problem. maybe i need to upgrade my pc
[02:17] <bimberi> ion: downgrading means reinstalling i'm afraid
[02:17] <bbrazil> ion: apt doesn't support downgrading. you'd have to reinstall practically speaking
[02:18] <ic56> a2xm: ok, which editor do you normally use in Ubuntu?
[02:18] <ompaul> Mofo,  if you can it will help - try the xubuntu CD first
[02:18] <a2xm> ic56:  and i wanna change the name from ie. hdb7 to windows
[02:18] <ion> someothernick: really I didn't know that....
[02:18] <ompaul> Mofo,  #xubuntu is its channel
[02:18] <a2xm> gedit
[02:18] <Mofo> ok
[02:18] <ic56> a2xm: sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[02:18] <ion> someothernick: so you think you can help ?
[02:19] <someothernick> ion: reinstall breezy
[02:19] <ic56> a2xm: now change /media/hda1 to /media/windows  Similarly hda2-->data and hdb7-->riyanto2
[02:19] <ion> someothernick: what how about my foles ?
[02:19] <someothernick> ion: back up
[02:19] <ion> someothernick: I mean my files...
[02:20] <ic56> a2xm: I assume all 3 of these were a moment ago mounted under these names.  Right?
[02:20] <ion> someothernick: oh no too much hastle.....
[02:20] <bimberi> back them up too
[02:20] <nikolas> hello
[02:20] <someothernick> lol
[02:20] <tom12519> need_help so nothign else solved it?
[02:20] <need_help> tom12519: I never found an answer
[02:20] <someothernick> ion: why not try to fix the problen
[02:20] <nikolas> I have a bit of a problem... Ubuntu says that my hdd is read-only and I can't change that...
[02:21] <bbrazil> nikolas: which hdd?
[02:21] <nikolas> hda1
[02:21] <nikolas> -1
[02:21] <a2xm> ic56:  right.. wait
[02:21] <ion> someothernick: good idea ever my shell doesn't work well....
[02:21] <bbrazil> nikolas: what fielsystem is it?
[02:21] <XiXaQ> nikolas, what kind of filesystem?
[02:21] <nikolas> ext3
[02:21] <ion> someothernick: how can I do that...
[02:21] <bbrazil> nikolas: check dmseg - why did it become read-only?
[02:21] <bbrazil> nikolas: *dmesg
[02:22] <someothernick> ion: i would just backup and do a clean install of breezy
[02:22] <sijmen> I've got a strange problem: to install mediawiki, I had to install php5 and php5-mysql. I did so, and mediawiki works great. However, my Wordpress blog stopped working, telling me it mysql for PHP isn't there
[02:22] <a2xm> ic56:  how about the partitions that i dont wanna mount it?
[02:22] <sijmen> Also, I can't find any mysql info in phpinfo(), so that makes me wonder how mediawiki still works
[02:22] <sijmen> See for yourself: http://a404.net/blog http://a404.net/europae/mediawiki
[02:22] <sijmen> How can this be?
[02:22] <tom12519> Does anybody here *have* a GP2X?
[02:22] <nikolas> dmesg says something about ETX3-fs errors...
[02:23] <bbrazil> sijmen: php5 does have sqlite, but I doubt it's that
[02:23] <bbrazil> sijmen: try installing php4 and php4-mysql
[02:23] <ion> someothernick:you mean format my HD and to it again ... ? :(
[02:23] <ic56> a2xm: why would you not want to mount fixed disk partitions?  There are valid reasons but a newbie doesn't usually have these reasons.
[02:23] <nikolas> Unable to read inode block
[02:23] <nikolas> and stuff
[02:23] <sijmen> bbrazil: mediawiki requires php5 :|
[02:23] <bbrazil> nikolas: lots of errors?
[02:23] <sijmen> And it does use the MySQL database
[02:23] <bbrazil> sijmen: it runs fine on php4
[02:23] <DaveyJ> are there drivers for quickcams?
[02:23] <someothernick> ion: did you do a dist upgrade?
[02:24] <bbrazil> sijmen: in fact I'm running 3 mediawikis on php4
[02:24] <sijmen> Eh?
[02:24] <ompaul> bbrazil, and one of them is on ubuntu that I know of :-)
[02:24] <sijmen> The Mediawiki installation aborted telling me to upgrade to PHP 5, which I then did
[02:24] <bbrazil> ompaul: one breezy, one dapper and one soalris8
[02:24] <nikolas> A couple... two that start with ETX3-fs error, one that says Uncorrectable error, and one with DriveReady SeekComplete Error
[02:24] <bbrazil> sijmen: what version of mediawiki?
[02:25] <bbrazil> nikolas: your hard drive is dying
[02:25] <sijmen> The latest stable version, let me see
[02:25] <ion> someothernick:yeah that's what I'm seeing doesn't work properly at the end I got some stupid error
[02:25] <nikolas> bbrazil, :/
[02:25] <bbrazil> nikolas: get all your data off it and replace it
[02:25] <brrrt> hello all
[02:25] <a2xm> ic56:  because that partitions are on different phisical disk. and i just dont wanna mount it ;-)
[02:26] <sijmen> bbrazil: 1.7.4
[02:26] <sijmen> *1.7.1
[02:26] <nikolas> bbrazil, okay, I guess that's what I'll have to do then... Thanks for your help
[02:26] <ic56> a2xm: not a good reason.  But if that is what you really want, remove the "auto" flag from the corresponding entries in /etc/fstab
[02:27] <bbrazil> nikolas: I've got 1.6.7 on 4.4.1 anyway
[02:27] <ic56> a2xm: are you done playing?  I need to wrap this up
[02:27] <a2xm> ic56: yes yes... and then what
[02:28] <ic56> a2xm: you didn't answer my question:
[02:28] <nikolas> bbrazil: Huh? 1.6.7? 4.4.1?
[02:28] <ic56> a2xm: I assume all 3 of these were a moment ago mounted under these names.  Right?
[02:28] <sijmen> bbrazil: got it working
[02:28] <a2xm> ic56:  yes, i did answer it
[02:28] <RvGaTe> XiXaQ, looks like my dvd-burner died...
[02:28] <RvGaTe> XiXaQ, cant burn a cd anymore... :S
[02:28] <ion> someothernick:right I gonna see what I can do thanks for you help....
[02:28] <sijmen> The installation of php5 or php5-mysql did something to /etc/php/php4/php.ini, mysql was commented out.
[02:29] <bbrazil> nikolas: sorry, meant for sijmen
[02:29] <XiXaQ> RvGaTe, well then, there's your problem. :)
[02:29] <nikolas> I see
[02:29] <nikolas> Anyway... I'll go hunt down a new hdd
[02:30] <ic56> a2xm: if you did answer it, you didn't do so with sufficient clarity for me to recognize it as an answer to that question.  Please answer again and do so unambiguously.
[02:32] <dpn> http://digg.com/linux_unix/NTFS-3G_-_Full_NTFS_read_write_support_for_Linux
[02:32] <dpn> Anyone tried this yet?
[02:33] <sysKin> hey it's a bit more silent :]  lemme ask my n00b question again:
[02:33] <sysKin> I'd like a desktop "shortcut" to a folder in SMB drive, but I don't seem to find a way
[02:34] <Seveas> dpn, let's wait for a month or two so the author can return from his vacation and fix bugs
[02:34] <dpn> I hope its as good as it sounds
[02:34] <longkerdandy> hi guys, what does "lrm" means from df command
[02:34] <a2xm> ic56:  yes, you're right. all 3 of those were mounted under those names.
[02:35] <Seveas> dpn, lrm is a filesystem type
[02:35] <a2xm> ic56:  i've save it and..
[02:35] <dpn> longkerdandy you mean :o
[02:35] <Seveas> longkerdandy, lrm/varrun/varlock/udev/devshm are all in-memory filesystems
[02:35] <brrrt> i have problem getting a brandnew via_rhine nw-card to work
[02:35] <Seveas> dpn, yes indeed
[02:36] <brrrt> it works with the live cd but not with installed ubuntu
[02:36] <ic56> a2xm: good.  Now: sudo umount /dev/hda1 /dev/hda2 /dev/hdb7; sudo mount -a  Any errors?
[02:36] <longkerdandy> in-memory , ah, i see
[02:36] <longkerdandy> thanks guys
[02:36] <void^> lrm = linux-restricted-modules
[02:37] <void^> personally i think it's a way to prove swap space is useful ;)
[02:37] <LMJ> hello the chan
[02:37] <brrrt> the modules which are loaded are the same with live or installed version, but on the installed system the network card doesnt work, how can this be?
[02:40] <a2xm> ic56:  wait, after i run the script, i got these: Backup copy '/etc/fstab.old.1152965132' created.
[02:40] <a2xm> Cannot create link /etc/mtab~
[02:40] <a2xm> Perhaps there is a stale lock file?
[02:40] <a2xm> ic56: Added /dev/hda1 as '/media/hda1'.
[02:40] <a2xm> NTFS partitions will be mounted read-only!
[02:40] <a2xm> Cannot create link /etc/mtab~
[02:40] <a2xm> Perhaps there is a stale lock file?
[02:40] <a2xm> ic56:  to all of them
[02:40] <a2xm> ic56: hdb7
[02:41] <fm> hi
[02:41] <ic56> a2xm: ok, don't worry about that error.  Now, sudo rmdir /dev/hd{a2,a2,b7}  Any errors?
[02:41] <a2xm> ic56:  and just now i run the: sudo umount /dev/hda1 /dev/hda2 /dev/hdb7, i got: Cannot create link /etc/mtab~
[02:41] <a2xm> Perhaps there is a stale lock file?
[02:41] <fm> When I use "?" or ":" in filenames of files that I share through samba, these names appear truncated.. can I do something?
[02:42] <LMJ> i'm Linux sysadmin in a company and i'm asking to myself a question. I have to run "apt-get update" by hand on each machine to update them and maybe upgrade them. Each time, i dowload all XML packages definition from internet for each computers. Have you ever seems a kind of "proxy" who store all fresh "XML packages lists"  in local and share them on the LAN . Then, i can do the "apt-get update" from all others computers of the LAN to this local machine with
[02:42] <LMJ> out re-download them from internet ?
[02:42] <tufsy> hi
[02:43] <BazziR> LMJ, you could setup a local mirror
[02:43] <tufsy> i am new at linux, i went to this site to install a bluetooth headset on ubuntu: http://bluetooth-alsa.sourceforge.net/
[02:43] <ic56> a2xm: what do you mean you just ran the sudo umount?!  You've already told me the error messages!  Are you running it again?  Why?
[02:43] <a2xm> ic56:  sudo rmdir /dev/hd{a2,a2,b7} ? what's a2,a2,b7? is it not a1,a2,b7 ?
[02:43] <tufsy> i have some problems in compiling
[02:44] <tufsy> ./bootstrap
[02:44] <tufsy> configure.in: installing `./mkinstalldirs'
[02:44] <tufsy> alsa-plugins/Makefile.am:7: LIBS was already defined in condition TRUE, which implies condition ALSAPLUGIN_TRUE ...
[02:44] <tufsy> configure.in:6: ... `LIBS' previously defined here.
[02:44] <tufsy> alsa-plugins/Makefile.am:11: Libtool library used but `LIBTOOL' is undefined
[02:44] <LMJ> yes BazziR , any ideas where i could find informations to setup this local mirror ?
[02:44] <tufsy> alsa-plugins/Makefile.am:11:
[02:44] <tufsy> alsa-plugins/Makefile.am:11: The usual way to define `LIBTOOL' is to add `AC_PROG_LIBTOOL'
[02:44] <tufsy> alsa-plugins/Makefile.am:11: to `configure.in' and run `aclocal' and `autoconf' again.
[02:44] <tufsy> how do i define this LIBTOOL thingie?
[02:44] <ic56> a2xm: you are right: the first a2 should be a1.  BTW, notice how I answered that question unambiguously.  Had I just said "yes" you would wonder whether I'm answer this question or a previous one I had not yet answered
[02:44] <tufsy> cos later on it says something when i do autoconf
[02:45] <BazziR> LMJ: just use rsync
[02:45] <fm> u're probbly lacking the libtool library tufsy
[02:45] <tufsy> fm: i am just following these instructions manually
[02:45] <tufsy> and so i dont know what is going on
[02:46] <a2xm> ic56: sorry for my lack of English
[02:46] <tufsy> i mean, not manually mechanically
[02:46] <tufsy> i mean, not manually, i mean mechanically
[02:46] <tufsy> :D
[02:46] <tufsy> autoconf
[02:46] <tufsy> configure.in:25: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
[02:46] <tufsy>       If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
[02:46] <tufsy>       See the Autoconf documentation.
[02:46] <ic56> a2xm: the practice is teh same regardless of language: specify what you are answering.  Don't be lazy.
[02:46] <patter> is anyone else having problems updating package lists from the gb.ubuntu site?
[02:46] <Blaze^^> !nvidia
[02:46] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[02:46] <tufsy> i guess the 2 are related right?
[02:47] <ic56> a2xm: so, are you done with the rmdir already?
[02:47] <a2xm> ic56:  i got errors here
[02:47] <a2xm> ic56: rmdir: /dev/hda1: Not a directory
[02:47] <ic56> a2xm: my mistake.
[02:47] <hanuma> hello anybody knew modpython
[02:47] <hanuma> here
[02:48] <fm> tufsy: did u try to do a "sudo apt-get install libtool" before ?
[02:48] <tufsy> nope
[02:48] <hanuma> can anyone help me in modpython
[02:48] <ic56> a2xm: I should have said: sudo rmdir /media/hd{a1,a2,b7}  Any errors?
[02:48] <Paladine> The following packages have been kept back:
[02:48] <Paladine>   linux-image-amd64-generic linux-restricted-modules-amd64-generic
[02:48] <Paladine> anyone know why the new kernel image is being kept back?
[02:49] <cypher1> Paladine, enable apt debugging
[02:49] <a2xm> ic56: rmdir: /media/hda1: Device or resource busy
[02:49] <a2xm> rmdir: /media/hda2: Directory not empty
[02:49] <a2xm> rmdir: /media/hdb7: Directory not empty
[02:49] <tufsy> fm: cool
[02:49] <ic56> a2xm: ah. bummer.  The umount didn't take.  hmmm.
[02:49] <Paladine> cypher, eh how do i do that?
[02:50] <czekista> hi
[02:50] <tufsy> :D
[02:50] <a2xm> ic56:  i got this error:  Cannot create link /etc/mtab~
[02:50] <a2xm> Perhaps there is a stale lock file? when run "sudo mount -a"
[02:50] <tufsy> me ez happy now
[02:50] <tufsy> cheers
[02:50] <fm> lol
[02:50] <fm> cool :)
[02:50] <cypher1> Paladine, apt-get -o Debug::pkgProblemResolver=yes
[02:50] <ic56> a2xm: ok.  No need to umount and mount -a.  Instead, reboot.  Then repeat the rmdir.  When shutting down, you'll get errors about being unable to umount.  Don't worry about them.
[02:51] <czekista> i have download partialy file from ftp. Now i would like to continue that downlad, however i don't know how. When i type "wget --continue <myfile" it starts downloading from beginning :/
[02:51] <czekista> should i user some morec advanced ftp clients?

[02:55] <Paladine> I did sudo apt-get update followed by sudo apt-get upgrade

[02:56] <Zoolie> just extract it?

[03:02] <moogman> theBeno: The root password is unset (therefore disabled) by default, for security reasons.
[03:02] <ic56> a2xm: these errors tell me that you didn't correctly edit /etc/fstab . Under what names are the partitions on the desktop?
[03:02] <moogman> theBeno: We would encourage you to use "sudo" when you need root functionality:)

[03:03] <skavenge> is there an easy way to remove gnome after installing kde?
[03:03] <a2xm> ic56:  /dev/hda2 /media/data --> this works correct
[03:03] <theBeno> moogman, That's pretty good I guess, but doesn't sudo have security risks?
[03:03] <moogman> theBeno: Like what?
[03:03] <Jeff_> why use kde on ubuntu, just use kubuntu
[03:03] <a2xm> ic56: /dev/hda1 /media/windows --> this also correct
[03:03] <Chousuke> Jeff_: it's the same thing.
[03:03] <Chousuke> :P

[03:04] <skavenge> ive had this ubuntu install up for ages just want to change WMs
[03:04] <theBeno> moogman, Not sure myself, but I've read some things on it.
[03:04] <Chousuke> Jeff_: install kubuntu-desktop and you get Kubuntu. :)
[03:04] <theBeno> I've never used sudo, also had it disabled.
[03:04] <Jeff_> ahhh
[03:04] <moogman> theBeno: I think the idea for Ubuntu, is to stop users from running as root for their normal user.
[03:04] <moogman> theBeno: root user is disabled, so you cannot ssh in as root, etc. etc.
[03:04] <Chousuke> sudo is IMHO superior to other methods of accessing root power.
[03:05] <a2xm> ic56:  and there are some partisions thet using their own name.. i confuse here
[03:05] <Bounty> does anybody have any clue to how i can still access yahoo through ubuntu ?
[03:05] <skavenge> but if your running gnome and install kde both WMs apps are in the menus and stuff really annoying
[03:05] <ompaul> !rootsudo > theBeno
[03:05] <moogman> theBeno: Which leaves sudo as the only option to perform admin options. That's the way I see it anyway.
[03:05] <moogman> !rootsudo > moogman
[03:05] <dark_light> Chousuke, why?
[03:05] <theBeno> moogman, Yeah, that's good for the average joe who will never use ssh, but I like my advanced features.
[03:05] <Chousuke> dark_light: because it's convenient, fast, secure and I just love it. <4
[03:05] <a2xm> ic56: /dev/hdb7 /media/riyanto --> this doesnt works
[03:06] <Chousuke> dark_light: it also allows for more fine-grained control of root rights.
[03:06] <Deanodriver> hey all
[03:07] <moogman> theBeno: If you do "sudo passwd", you can set the root password, which means you'll be able to login directly, or using su etc.
[03:07] <Chousuke> that's not recommended though.
[03:07] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> heylo people
[03:07] <Deanodriver> i'm having a small problem with my samba shares, I can read and write to them from my windows box (on my server), but on my desktop, it's read-only
[03:07] <dark_light> Chousuke, i think that or you have root or don't have. and.. yes, it's sometimes convenient
[03:07] <moogman> Agreed Chousuke
[03:07] <cypher1> Paladine, please repeat the same for the other package also and see the output
[03:07] <piwi> can you guys explain me how to install a tar.gz application? flash player doesnt want to install automatically using firefox automated wizard
[03:07] <ic56> a2xm: shouldn't that be riyanto2 ? That's how it was in your old fstab from Ubuntu 5.10
[03:08] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> anyone know a good place to play chess online?? i cant get into zone.com cuz of no IE,, so any places would be great!
[03:08] <Hobbsee> !flash > piwi
[03:08] <theBeno> moogman, Yeah, and I'll probably remove sudo.
[03:08] <a2xm> ic56: /dev/hdb7 /media/riyanto --> this works anly on nautilus, not on desktop
[03:08] <theBeno> Or disable it.
[03:08] <dark_light> Chousuke, but login as root is so more simple when you want type many commands..
[03:08] <Deanodriver> my entry in fstab for the shares is:
[03:08] <MalMen> http://rafb.net/paste/results/vKB52d91.html <- what is wrong here ?
[03:08] <Chousuke> theBeno: that could break things in Ubuntu
[03:08] <Chousuke> dark_light: no it isn't
[03:08] <Chousuke> dark_light: sudo -s :)
[03:08] <ompaul> theBeno, well sudo is advanced
[03:08] <piwi> thanks Hobbsee
[03:08] <a2xm> ic56: /dev/hdb7 /media/riyanto --> this works on nautilus, not on desktop

[03:09] <dark_light> Chousuke, hmm yeah but *i* love to go to a tty and login as root :P
[03:09] <ompaul> theBeno, I had the bot send you a url read its contents it will tell you all you want to know
[03:09] <Deanodriver> (two // on the share on server)
[03:09] <Deanodriver> have i missed out something in order to have read/write?
[03:09] <Chousuke> dark_light: well, login as your normal user instead and do sudo -s :P
[03:09] <moogman> theBeno: As Chousuke, you can use "sudo -s" to perform the same thing as "su". But, if you know plenty about Linux, you'd have already made up your mind about sudo vs su :)
[03:09] <bbrazil> Deanodriver: you need a umask too
[03:09] <b00gz1> Can someone please help me with a really simple Bind issue.   I am using Bind9 and I am hosting ibxsecurity.com ... If I ask <IP_ADDRESS> (Local Private IP) about ibxsecurity.com it will respond with my WAN IP (Which it should do) now if I ask my Wan IP about ibxsecurity.com it gives me DNS requested timed out.  I do have the ports forwarded and it does not fail until I ask about the domain.  PLEASE HELP!
[03:09] <Chousuke> moogman: I knew plenty about Linux before I found sudo. :D
[03:10] <Chousuke> then I converted.
[03:10] <a2xm> ic56: ah, wait.. /dev/hdb7 /media/riyanto --> this works on desktop but with the name OTHERS
[03:10] <Deanodriver> really? thanks, i'll give that a try
[03:10] <ic56> a2xm: by "works", I assume you mean that you see an icon named "windows" which, when you open, you see your files.  Correct?
[03:10] <Deanodriver> 777 as well?
[03:10] <Paladine> cypher1, same thing sudo apt-get -u install will let me do it, but the sudo apt-get upgrade still marks it as kept back
[03:10] <a2xm> ic56: yes, for windows & data
[03:10] <moogman> Chousuke: Me too. I nuked my boxes too many times running as root, and using su, and leaving root wide open to ssh ;)
[03:10] <ic56> a2xm: shouldn't that be riyanto2 ? That's how it was in your old fstab from Ubuntu 5.10

[03:12] <Curator> it DOESNT have ethernet
[03:12] <Chousuke> Curator: Those are always a bit difficult.
[03:12] <moogman> Any ideas about my samba/windows network problem, guys? (See original question above)
[03:12] <frogzoo> Curator: get a linux driver (maybe) or you're sol
[03:12] <a2xm> ic56:  and the partitions that i dont want, are there works fine
[03:12] <Deanodriver> do i set umask as 0777 or 777?
[03:12] <dark_light> Chousuke, well. maybe it's better to avoid one step if i don't plan to do any work with the regular user. :P
[03:12] <cypher1> hi frogzoo
[03:13] <a2xm> ic56: with their own name
[03:13] <Chousuke> dark_light: ;P

[03:14] <ic56> a2xm: Let me clarify, since you failed to answer the original question and you are now confusing it with a different context: shouldn't that be riyanto2 instead of riyanto on the desktop and in /etc/fstab? That's how it was in your old fstab from Ubuntu 5.10
[03:14] <lotwook> Anyone able to help me with the mplayer plugin? When I got to watch video at cnn.com for example, I get just a white screen where the video should play.
[03:15] <ompaul> theBeno, a minor note, never tell someone in this channel how to do what you asked, point them to that page please, the reason is as we help new users we expect them to start from the same point
[03:15] <Smeggy> anyone recommend an encypted dvd ripper?
[03:15] <theBeno> moogman, I run FreeBSD and gentoo systems, but just trying Ubuntu because it's the latest big thing.  Especially with LTS support etc.
[03:15] <Smeggy> one of my dvds has a crack in the inner circle and i want to rip it before it shatters
[03:15] <a2xm> ic56: yes, it should be riyanto2 just like in the old fstab
[03:15] <xophEr> Do you guys know of an app that lets me convert my movies (xvid) to mp4-format? (cell phone)
[03:15] <rpedro> gonn: try 'man xgamma' , it's for adjusting screen gamma color, but might work as an workaround until you find out a real solution, as I can't think of anything else
[03:15] <theBeno> ompaul, alright
[03:15] <frogzoo> cypher1: yep, don't think suspend works the way you think - by default all network drivers are removed, so there's no state to restore, but from the interfaces file
[03:16] <gonn> thanks rpedro
[03:16] <ompaul> theBeno, if they have root - it is not fair on the people here who are expecting them not to have it and 10 minutes later you find they have been touching all the stuff in their home dir with root what a mess :-)
[03:16] <ompaul> theBeno, I came to linux from FreeBSD and I can say I prefer it, if you do it for a week you tend to implement it on other boxes :-)
[03:17] <ompaul> theBeno, was doing linux long before I got into ubuntu
[03:17] <moogman> theBeno: Ah, nice to see the support having effect. You'll find Ubuntu "easier" than most other Linux/UNIX IMHO, if you stick with the way they want to do things
[03:17] <rosa> anyone knows how to get an aolconnection on (k)ubuntu? i am noob so plz explain slow...ly.
[03:17] <cypher1> frogzoo, but it can remember which are the network drivers loaded right
[03:17] <rpedro> gonn: np, I never used any under linux but someone else might know of a real control panel for such things
[03:17] <ic56> a2xm: so, did you mistype it when you changed /etc/fstab ? Does your fstab say riyanto or riyanto2 ?  Does your /media directory contain a subdirectory named riyanto or riyanto2?
[03:18] <cypher1> Paladine, sorry i could not root cause it... but if you notice the package names are different..
[03:18] <frogzoo> cypher1: I think it just reloads whatever drivers are needed to bring up the interfaces
[03:18] <snoops> I'm after a powerful password management program - which allows me to set passwords which expire after x time etc?
[03:18] <gonn> i was hoping to find that in the internet
[03:18] <gonn> but none so far...
[03:18] <TARZEAU> snoops: for linux logins?
[03:18] <theBeno> Yeah, it's a good system, but I'm not a fan of someone making me "stick with the way they want to do things".  That's why I use linux in the first place. ^_^
[03:18] <cypher1> frogzoo, no i dont agree to that way
[03:18] <frogzoo> snoops: stock passwd supports expiration
[03:18] <TARZEAU> snoops: you already have it ;)
[03:18] <frogzoo> snoops: just need a gui mebbe
[03:18] <frogzoo> cypher1: so submit a patch
[03:18] <moogman> snoops: passwd -x
[03:18] <cypher1> frogzoo, if i have a dummy entry in interfaces will it load a driver for that also ?
[03:19] <cypher1> frogzoo, did thought of going into hibernate code.. ;)
[03:19] <b00gz1> cypher1 ok Thanks!
[03:19] <snoops> not for logins

[03:20] <vice-versa> any suggestions for booting with 5.10 livecd on a Compaq R4000 (AMD64 3500 w/ATI)?
[03:20] <vice-versa> so far I've used noacpi acpi=off debian-installer/framebuffer=false and I'm thinking it's hanging loading X
[03:20] <gonn> i could not ever dream of that!
[03:20] <gonn> :)
[03:20] <gonn> but it is just my monitor is't too good :(
[03:20] <gonn> thanks anyway ;)
[03:20] <ompaul> vice-versa, if your using 5.10 then do this, wiki.ubuntu.com/PaulsKludge just try it out
[03:21] <poje> I wish I could whip the ATI devs until they made a functioning linux driver
[03:21] <vice-versa> ompaul: ok, ty looking....
[03:21] <rpedro> gonn: great ;-)
[03:21] <Deanodriver> i'm still having no luck, i changed umask and dmask, and still cannot write

[03:22] <cypher1> frogzoo, that is the reason i reopened the defect
[03:23] <frogzoo> cypher1: all the hotplug code's in a state of flux atm, so I'm pretty much assuming these little niggles will sort themselves out over time
[03:23] <snoops> TARZEAU you assumed I meant for logins - any idea for a password manager which has expirations etc for bank account details/web site logins/all personal passwords really
[03:23] <Deanodriver> this is my current fstab entry:

[03:23] <cypher1> frogzoo, can we discuss in #ubuntu-bugs ?
[03:23] <vice-versa> ompaul: that's for doing a full install is it not?
[03:23] <Deanodriver> i can read to it with this
[03:23] <Deanodriver> and read and write with my windows box
[03:24] <frogzoo> cypher1: I'm kind of busy atm
[03:24] <Deanodriver> and i'm pretty sure the problem is on this end if i can read/write on the windows box
[03:24] <Deanodriver> no user/pass set
[03:25] <Deanodriver> does anyone know what i'm doing wrong?
[03:25] <Deanodriver> i don't like copying 45GB over SSH :)
[03:25] <TARZEAU> Deanodriver: why not?
[03:25] <Deanodriver> far too slow
[03:25] <TARZEAU> Deanodriver: i've copied 450 GB over SSH
[03:26] <vice-versa> ompaul: I just want to boot with the LiveCD for now, is there anyway to pass a parameter to not load X?
[03:26] <sysKin> is there a way to play music with xmms from smb:// drive?
[03:26] <Deanodriver> so just continue doing it?
[03:26] <sysKin> it doesn't seem to be doing anything when I try
[03:26] <TARZEAU> Deanodriver: i assume you have 100mbit?
[03:26] <TARZEAU> Deanodriver: and use rsync?
[03:26] <Deanodriver> yes
[03:26] <Deanodriver> no
[03:27] <TARZEAU> sure, just keep it running in a screen
[03:27] <Deanodriver> (copying in nautilus)
[03:27] <TARZEAU> oh...
[03:27] <TARZEAU> i wouldn't trust nautilus to not segfault for so long

[03:29] <Deanodriver> afraid not
[03:29] <Deanodriver> i'll just boot up with a livecd, and copy it in that
[03:29] <vice-versa> is there anyway to pass a parameter when booting 5.10 LiveCD 64bit to not load X?
[03:29] <Deanodriver> as i said, i'm wiping the hdd soon anyway
[03:30] <Deanodriver> oh
[03:30] <Deanodriver> i've got 1GB of RAM, but rarely use the swap atm, how big should my swap partition be?
[03:30] <Deanodriver> it's 1GB atm
[03:30] <Zoolie> thx Hobbsee,what .deb i need from there? and this tar.bz2 is what? couse maybe one day i find a program in *.tar.bz2 and i want to use it...pls tell me
[03:31] <pianoboy3333> How do you mount a firewire (1394) drive? What device does it show up under?
[03:31] <moogman> Thanks ompaul, that doesn't seem to help - Samba client is installed, and we're just trying to connect to a remote (Windows) share, via Nautilus
[03:31] <erUSUL> Zoolie: is a zip like file with a tre of source files to compile the program yourself
[03:32] <ompaul> moogman, read that page if you want to browse there is smbclient
[03:32] <Zoolie> how to compile?
[03:32] <ompaul> !compile > Zoolie
[03:32] <Zoolie> thx
[03:32] <Zoolie> !compile
[03:32] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for a pre-built package first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[03:32] <moogman> ompaul: Des Nautilus and gnome VFS use smbclient as it's backend then?
[03:33] <Zoolie> thx guys
[03:33] <ompaul> moogman, no idea
[03:33] <Zoolie> the link is empty
[03:33] <erUSUL> Zoolie: make sure that the program is not in repositories. compiling from source is not a wise thing to do unless you know what you are doing
[03:33] <ompaul> moogman, I will know in three hours
[03:33] <Zoolie> nothing there
[03:33] <ompaul> moogman, going to do some samba work here
[03:34] <moogman> ompaul: Ok, I guess would be useful to try connecting with smbclient, to see where the problem lies.
[03:34] <ompaul> moogman, hopefully all done by then
[03:34] <Zoolie> erUSUL,ok but kopete is only in 0.11 at ubuntu reps.....
[03:34] <moogman> ompaul: Ok, I'll stick around :)
[03:34] <Hobbsee> Zoolie: you want http://www.buntudot.org/people/~hobbsee/kopete/kopete_3.5.3+kopete0.12.1-0ubuntu1_i386.deb (assuming you're on i386)

[03:37] <Echodrive-Ubuntu> paladine are you talking about a homepage?
[03:37] <erUSUL> Paladine: there are extensions to do that

[03:40] <ic56> a2xm: hello
[03:41] <a2xm> ic56: my connection went down
[03:41] <ic56> a2xm: so, did you mistype it when you changed /etc/fstab ? Does your fstab say riyanto or riyanto2 ?  Does your /media directory contain a subdirectory named riyanto or riyanto2?
[03:41] <|kY> how can i make a new partition without installing the system new ???
[03:41] <jersymike> ne one here willing to help me with going through linux for my first time?
[03:41] <a2xm> ic56: wrote many of those answer already, man... ;-)
[03:41] <erUSUL> Sh4d0w: gpg --import *.asc
[03:41] <ubuntu_Iz> ncan anyone help with samba?
[03:41] <erUSUL> |kY: gparted
[03:42] <Sh4d0w> ah so i just need to install gpg with synaptic and then use the console?
[03:42] <erUSUL> |kY: gparted and btw do not repeat please
[03:42] <|kY> ok sorry ;)
[03:42] <erUSUL> Sh4d0w: gpg should be instaled by default
[03:42] <sj``> erUSUL: nope, i get the following errors: http://rafb.net/paste/results/m0pJY672.html
[03:43] <Sh4d0w> ok i try, thx, are my first steps at linux, want to come away from windows
[03:43] <erUSUL> Sh4d0w: seahorse does have a import function (Keys>Import)
[03:43] <ubuntu_Iz> is anyone good with samba?
[03:43] <moogman> ubuntu_Iz: Possibly. What's up?
[03:43] <DBO> ubuntu_Iz, what do you need?
[03:43] <Sh4d0w> yes but my problem is, how can i install seahores
[03:44] <jersymike> hmm
[03:44] <a2xm> ic56:  i didn't mistype, i just remember its what should be, sorry... my fstab contain riyanto. and my /media has both riyanto and riyanto2. but the riyanto2 has nothing in it
[03:44] <sj``> erUSUL: i will try building alsa-driver from source with intel8x0 drivers and see if that works
[03:44] <ubuntu_Iz> well i set up samba on two ubuntu 6.06 computers, and when i try to access either from the other, it goes into an eternal loop of asking for a username and password
[03:44] <a2xm> ic56: and i dont want riyanto2
[03:44] <erUSUL> sj``: try modprobe snd-intel8x0
[03:44] <ubuntu_Iz> i was told to use smppasswd and set a password on both machines, which i have done
[03:44] <erUSUL> Sh4d0w: with synaptic
[03:44] <ic56> a2xm: ok. sudo rmdir /media/riyanto2
[03:44] <erUSUL> !synaptic > Sh4d0w
[03:44] <riddlebox> if I create a deb file, do I have to do anything to it so apt will resolve dependencies for it?
[03:45] <sj``> FATAL: Error inserting snd_intel8x0 (/lib/modules/2.6.12-10-386/kernel/sound/pci/snd-intel8x0.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

[03:45] <Sh4d0w> ok thx
[03:45] <jersymike> how do i gt to some sort of destop the boot login?
[03:45] <|kY> erUSUL: i can't change anything with gparted
[03:45] <Sh4d0w> ah well i have done this, but i dont find a file with that i can start seahorse, there are only glade files
[03:45] <a2xm> ic56: done
[03:46] <v3> Hello all, I just want ubuntu to login to the default user and keep the system up and running, ready to accept remote login how do i do that ? after a power failure the system will not login to the user account ...
[03:46] <sj``> brb
[03:46] <v3> how do i fix this ?
[03:47] <jersymike> i9 must be retarted or something i cant figure this crp out for my life
[03:47] <riddlebox> v3, System-->Administration--->Login
[03:47] <a2xm> ic56: /media/riyanto works ok on nautilus, but its become others on desktop. weird?
[03:48] <erUSUL> |kY: you con't change mounted partitions and there are restricitions on what can be done. is better to edit parts from a livecd. also *make backups* messing with harddrives is risky business
[03:48] <ubuntu_Iz> so erm
[03:48] <erUSUL> Sh4d0w:
[03:48] <riddlebox> jersymike, I have missed what your problem is, do you mind saying it again?
[03:48] <Sh4d0w> well first good thing, i imported the keys with gpg itself :)
[03:48] <erUSUL> Sh4d0w: Apps>Acces.>
[03:48] <pianoboy3333> I'd like to know if I can get some help with a sound issue at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1258892
[03:48] <jersymike> im new at linux.. how would i log on for the first time after instaling it?
[03:49] <erUSUL> jersymike: with the user and password you set during intalation
[03:49] <v3> riddlebox: hmmz ok ..
[03:49] <Sh4d0w> erUSUL: there is no seahorse :/ but in synaptic it says seahrose is installed
[03:49] <riddlebox> jersymike, when you installed your system, you created a user account with a password
[03:49] <ic56> a2xm: good. I don't know why riyanto doesn't appear on your desktop while data does.  They're configured identically, AFAIK, and the reboot should have cleared any discrepancy.  So that's as far as I can help you.  If you like this setup, keep it.  If you prefer the one you had before, rename /etc/fstab and replace it with the backup (/etc/fstab.back...).  Either way, you will still have problems with other stuff:
[03:49] <jersymike> i instaled it then removed the disk but when i load up it says put a boot disk in
[03:49] <v3> can a box without anybody logged in accept ssh connections ?
[03:50] <ubuntu_Iz> i guess i'll just post on the forums
[03:50] <dmsantam> jersymike, did you install a boot loader?
[03:50] <dmsantam> v3, yes
[03:50] <jersymike> umm
[03:50] <jersymike> i dont think i did
[03:50] <Sh4d0w> i will try gpa
[03:50] <erUSUL> v3: yes whay not?
[03:50] <dmsantam> jersymike, it asked you to install grub
[03:50] <jersymike> how would i do that?
[03:50] <dmsantam> jersymike, do you remember accepting that?
[03:50] <jersymike> umm no
[03:50] <dmsantam> the installer asks you to install grub (a boot loader)
[03:50] <jersymike> i instaled the server
[03:50] <a2xm> ic56:  and how about the partisions that i dont want. all aff them are in the desktop
[03:51] <ic56> a2xm: tehre are virtual filesystems that aren't in the old fstab and which are needed in 6.06 and your cdrom and dvdrom mountpoints aren't setup quite right -- nonstandard.  Eventually, you may want to reinstall
[03:51] <ic56> a2xm: which partitions?
[03:51] <riddlebox> jersymike,  then you did not complete the install, your system will reboot once during an install if I remember correctly but it will tell you when you are done
[03:51] <jersymike> i was instaling mandrivia but someone told me to go this way because its alot more freindly
[03:51] <v3> dmsantam,erUSUL cool tnx. do i need to do anything special to enable root login to that box ?
[03:51] <Sh4d0w> ah i found seahorse sry i was blind
[03:51] <a2xm> ic56: hdb1, hdb5, hdb6
[03:52] <Taza> What kind of install should I pick if I want both Xubuntu and a LAMP server for a p2?
[03:52] <jersymike> hmm
[03:52] <riddlebox> jersymike, I used to use mandriva, ubuntu is faster and it seems that it is friendly toward everyone
[03:52] <v3>  oh and i need to have a dyndns attached to the box ... will that requrie a login ?
[03:52] <a2xm> ic56:  all of them are on the desktop with their own name.
[03:52] <Taza> Both Gnome and KDE are too heavy for that computer.
[03:52] <jersymike> yeah thats what i was told and i was having problem with mandrivia not comming out of failsafe mode
[03:53] <riddlebox> v3, you can use dyndns on the router if you have one and point ssh or web to the pc through the router as well
[03:53] <ic56> a2xm: do you want them to not be mounted or to be mounted but not visible on the desktop?
[03:53] <jersymike> ok well how would i install the boot loader now?
[03:53] <erUSUL> v3: yes edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[03:53] <riddlebox> jersymike, I suggest going through the install again
[03:53] <hawkaloogie> Taza, I'd start with the ubuntu server install, and then apt-get install xubuntu-desktop (iirc)
[03:53] <a2xm> ic56: i want them not to be mounted
[03:53] <jersymike> could u step me through the instal so i dont mess up this time if i have questions on somethinh?
[03:53] <jersymike> something*
[03:54] <riddlebox> can anyone tell me how to find out who is packaging certain apps in the repositories?
[03:54] <riddlebox> jersymike, sure
[03:54] <ic56> a2xm: ok.  Could you verify what exists under them in the desktop?  They should appear to be empty, given the fstab you showed me
[03:54] <Taza> hawkaloogie: Thanks. I got the server CD and am atm installing the LAMP version of the install.
[03:54] <jersymike> ty umm first question is should i be using the server cd to instal it or the destop one?
[03:55] <riddlebox> is this for a server or for your desktop?
[03:55] <a2xm> ic56:  sorry, i dont get what u mean
[03:55] <jersymike> umm its for a home computer
[03:55] <jersymike> but it has no os on it because windows got whiped out
[03:55] <riddlebox> jersymike, then use the desktop cd
[03:55] <falfaro> Usually, for a home computer, you would choose the desktop CD.
[03:56] <jersymike> oh ok
[03:56] <v3> riddlebox, erUSUL tnx.
[03:56] <ic56> a2xm: when you open the icons for those partitions on the desktop, do you see any files inside?
[03:56] <erUSUL> v3: no problem
[03:56] <riddlebox> v3, no prob
[03:56] <jersymike> well it has no os at all atm
[03:56] <Taza> If I want a light install (seeing the bit under 2gb hdd), server cd would be preferable?
[03:56] <riddlebox> jersymike,  thats great
[03:56] <falfaro> However, if you intend the machine to act as a network server, like running Apache, file server or print server, the Server CD could be best suited.
[03:56] <Taza> jersymike: Doesn't matter
[03:56] <a2xm> ic56: yes, it works just fine
[03:57] <jersymike> nah atm im jus gonna try to getused to linux and ill make this computer a server after im firmilar with it
[03:57] <ic56> a2xm: did you mount them manually since you last rebooted?
[03:57] <Taza> jersymike: The desktop install has it's own desktop IIRC. It doesn't need windows, and it doesn't need even the HDD to work.
[03:57] <a2xm> ic56: nope
[03:57] <riddlebox> v3, there is another cool thing you can do, if you want that user to start certain apps when it logs in, you can go the sessions option and enter commands to run when it logs in
[03:58] <ic56> a2xm: please pastebin your /etc/fstab for me again -- I want to see the latest version
[03:58] <jersymike> oh realy
[03:58] <riddlebox> jersymike, once you get the desktop running, its really not much to get the server apps on it, through synaptic or apt-get
[03:58] <jersymike> w8 go back to that doesnt need a hdd to work
[03:58] <jersymike> cuz i have a laptop with a fryed hdd
[03:59] <riddlebox> jersymike, the ubuntu install disc is a livecd, it will run off of your cdrom
[03:59] <jersymike> ok but i still need a hdd to store things tho right?
[03:59] <riddlebox> jersymike, yes you will
[04:00] <jersymike> kk
[04:00] <riddlebox> jersymike, or a flash drive or something
[04:00] <jersymike> lol i was getting happy for a moment
[04:00] <jersymike> yeah i was thinking about going external but its not worth it to put that on it
[04:00] <jersymike> cuz the laptop is junk
[04:00] <Paladine> anyone know how I re-enable linux console colors in terminals?
[04:01] <sj``> erUSUL: i recompiled the alsa driver to use snd-intel8x0, which is loaded, still having the same problem
[04:01] <ic56> Paladine: by terminals, do you mean the gnome-terminal application?
[04:01] <falfaro> Paladine, what is you TERM variable set to?
[04:01] <a2xm> ic56: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18079
[04:01] <Taza> jersymike: If you want a system to run without a HDD, I suggest knoppix over ubuntu. With a 64mb usb drive, for example.
[04:01] <falfaro> Or you could also use DSL (Damn Small Linux)
[04:02] <Paladine> yeah gnome terminal
[04:02] <jersymike> ok lol
[04:02] <falfaro> Paladine, I mean what's the output when running "echo $TERM"
[04:02] <Taza> I've found the knoppix CD + usb drive for saving files/config work like a charm
[04:02] <Paladine> TERM=xterm
[04:02] <jersymike> hmm
[04:02] <falfaro> OK, so the terminal is set up correctly
[04:02] <erUSUL> sj``: i'm afraid i can not help you further... check the output of lsmod to see if all nec. modules are loaded etc
[04:02] <falfaro> What's missing the colors?
[04:02] <lowfi> Paladine, uncomment the color section in ~/.bashrc
[04:03] <sj``> erUSUL: ok no worries. thanks for your help (:
[04:03] <jersymike> by a usb drive u mean like a portable hdd or like a memory stick?
[04:03] <Taza> jersymike: memory stick.
[04:03] <Paladine> lowfi, ah that would explain it, I think I must have rm'd .bashrc by mistake
[04:03] <ic56> Paladine: what does "alias ls" report?
[04:03] <jersymike> oh ok i have a few of them from my little bros psp
[04:03] <falfaro> run "alias" and make sure you've got an alias defined for ls like "alias ls='ls --color=auto'"
[04:04] <Taza> jersymike: I doubt. Not a memory card, an USB drive.
[04:04] <Paladine> paladine@main:~$ alias ls
[04:04] <Paladine> bash: alias: ls: not found
[04:04] <Paladine> paladine@main:~$
[04:04] <vivek> ubuntu has no root login by default ? everything is via sudo ?
[04:04] <ic56> Paladine: please address the person to whom you are speaking so we know whose question you are answering
[04:04] <falfaro> try running "ls --color=auto"
[04:04] <vivek> can i have a root login ?
[04:04] <jersymike> no i kno psp uses a memory stick there like 1gb
[04:04] <Paladine> falfaro, that worked, I need to get a new bashrc
[04:05] <Taza> *shrugs* Never used a psp, but if it's got an USB connector, it prob fits.
[04:05] <falfaro> you can add the following line to ~/.bashrc: alias ls='ls --color=auto'
[04:05] <IcemanV9> !root > vivek
[04:05] <ic56> Paladine: edit your ~/.bashrc  Inside add a line like this: alias ls='/bin/ls --color=auto'.  This will fix your problem permanently
[04:05] <sysKin> can I define my shortcut keys to run applications/commands I want
[04:05] <Paladine> yeah thanks man
[04:05] <falfaro> and also, add "eval `dircolors -b`"
[04:06] <Paladine> I made a boo boo the other day and rm'd /var/sid-i386-chroot/ without unmounting /home and /tmp first
[04:06] <Paladine> so I ended up rm'ing half my homedir before I realised
[04:06] <Taza> jersymike: Here's some examples: http://images.google.com/images?q=usb+memory+stick
[04:06] <jersymike> taza: can u give me the link for the knoppix image that would work with the non hdd set up?
[04:07] <jersymike> yeah thats them
[04:07] <ic56> a2xm: Paladine: that's what backups are for!
[04:07] <Taza> jersymike: I don't know of a knoppix image that wouldn't. ( http://www.knoppix.org/ )
[04:07] <Paladine> ic56, backups pffft, where's the fun in backups?
[04:07] <ic56> Paladine: that's what backups are for!  You should do them daily
[04:07] <dr_willis> Backup all your Porn!
[04:07] <dr_willis> :)
[04:07] <jersymike> ok
[04:08] <Taza> jersymike: However, there's also #knoppix on freenode, I doubt #ubuntu is the place for discussion about knoppix. :p
[04:08] <dv_> anyone knows a good UML modeling package for linux?
[04:08] <ic56> Paladine: backups are fun! floppy after hundredth floppy you can hear your little drive spin up, whish-whish-whish.... then spin down!

[04:12] <Tommy2k4> how can i reencode an mp3 to a lower bitrate mp3
[04:13] <ic56> a2xm: ok sudo gedit /etc/fstab  and comment out the entries for the 3 unwanted filesystems, by putting a sharp in from of each line. Eg: # /dev/hdb1 ...
[04:13] <tom12519> Does anybody have a GP2X/

[04:14] <vivek> i have ubuntu up and runnig on my system now .. but it can't seem to resolve outside urls... it can ping the internal routers. ... ( i have two routers ... Internet--router/modem/----router ----wired --- ubuntu ... how do i get it to resolve dns ?
[04:14] <erUSUL> vivek: are you using dhcp? or static ip?
[04:14] <vivek> erUSUL: dhcp on both the routers ...
[04:14] <livingdaylight> Hi Guys!!! i just got back from a successful hunt. I got an INVIDIA 6600gt graphics card. NOW, errrhum....how do i install it?  :o
[04:15] <vivek> livingdaylight: cool
[04:15] <Giorgos[a] > anyone knows how i can change the BAN MASK in kvirc.it bans<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and this is not helpfull
[04:15] <vivek> livingdaylight: nvidia drivers are not that bad compared to the ati drivers ;)
[04:15] <livingdaylight> My motherboard has onboard integrated graphics card and i was told to go  into the bios to switch it off, but i see nothing nowhere in the bios to do this, any help?
[04:15] <erUSUL> vivek: post the contents of /etc/resolv.conf in a pastebin
[04:15] <erUSUL> !nvidia
[04:15] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your monitor, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:16] <forrest> is it true that if you use aptitude, you cant use apt-get?
[04:16] <riddlebox> livingdaylight, I believe its just apt-get install nvidia-glx or something like that
[04:16] <Paladine> anyone know what .rnd is in my home dir? it is a root owned file looks like it is a binary too
[04:16] <morrolan> forrest: not at all
[04:16] <livingdaylight> riddlebox: just slot the agp graphics card install the nvidia drivers and ubuntu will pick it up?
[04:16] <morrolan> forrest: of course you can use both together - that's\ the beauty of linux, using 1 program usually doesn't prohibit ot mess-up another
[04:16] <forrest> morrolan: where does aptitude record which pakages were automaticly installed and which manually?
[04:16] <frogzoo> vivek: your problem is that your ubuntu's dns server comes from dhcp -> dhcp router #2 -> dhcp router #1      I'm thinking router #2 has the wrong dns setting
[04:17] <Giorgos[a] > anyone using KVIRC?
[04:17] <Taza> jersymike: KNOPPIX_V4.0.2CD-2005-09-23-EN.iso , I believe.
[04:17] <ic56> Paladine: no .rnd in my ubuntu 5.10 homedird
[04:17] <riddlebox> livingdaylight, yeah put it in the pc, then you will install the drivers, and do a command like nvidia-glx enable or something like that then restart and you should see the nvidia logo
[04:17] <morrolan> --help
[04:18] <livingdaylight> riddlebox: ok, i'll give that a go
[04:18] <jersymike> taza: what site is that off of?
[04:18] <morrolan> forrest: I think it's /etc/aptitude
[04:18] <riddlebox> livingdaylight, there was a link put up by erUSUL that will help you as well
[04:18] <forrest> thanks
[04:19] <Giorgos[a] > anyone using KVIRC?
[04:19] <jersymike> nvm
[04:19] <Deanodriver> 'you do not have permissions to write to this folder'
[04:19] <Deanodriver> bah
[04:19] <Deanodriver> stupid thing
[04:19] <Taza> jersymike: Do join #knoppix and ask there.
[04:19] <livingdaylight> riddlebox: where's that?
[04:19] <Deanodriver> (this is just using mount -t smbfs, not fstab)
[04:20] <jersymike> taza: ok

[04:20] <vivek> erUSUL: i have nameserver set to the second router ip there ... just looking for a paste bin ...
[04:20] <livingdaylight> riddlebox: ok, thx
[04:20] <vivek> frogzoo: how do i check that ?
[04:21] <miL> hi people
[04:21] <miL> do you know if www.goear.com it has something to see with youtube?
[04:21] <erUSUL> !pastebin
[04:21] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[04:22] <Deanodriver> hmm
[04:22] <erUSUL> vivek: and there is a nameserver running in that router?
[04:22] <Deanodriver> if i change the permissions of a directory, it says permission denied, even if i'm using sudo, why could that be?
[04:22] <vivek> erUSUL: yes i have dropped in the nameserver settings on the router
[04:23] <livingdaylight> not sure i know where to connect the graphics power to on the motherboard?  :|
[04:23] <vivek> erUSUL: if i change the nameserver settings on ubuntu it works ... (ie i drop in the dns of my isp in resolv.conf ...
[04:23] <Giorgos[a] > anyone using KVIRC?
[04:23] <vivek> that's not the right way to go about it is it ? ...
[04:23] <shukhrat> compliler C/C++ fo Ubuntu ?
[04:24] <bbrazil> shukhrat: build-essential
[04:24] <erUSUL> vivek: yes but the router assings its ip as the nameserver not the ips of the nameservers you configured if i understand correctly?
[04:24] <vivek> the other equipment connected to router 2 are happy with the dns settings .. (my voip box and this laptop ...) not sure why ubuntu is not happy
[04:24] <shukhrat> build_essential ?
[04:24] <Giorgos[a] > anyone using KVIRC?i need help
[04:25] <shukhrat> is Ubuntu have compiler for C/C++ ?
[04:25] <vivek> erUSUL: not sure i get you .. how do i check what ip the router has assigned ?
[04:25] <vivek> erUSUL: resolv.conf by default had <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:25] <snoops> shukhrat as bbrazil said, install build-essential for compilers such as gcc
[04:26] <vivek> erUSUL: http://pastebin.com/748703
[04:26] <bbrazil> snoops: well, build-esssential only has gcc really
[04:26] <shukhrat> oops
[04:26] <Deanodriver> sigh
[04:26] <Deanodriver> nothing i do can get it working
[04:26] <snoops> thought it came with more bbrazil.. thanks
[04:26] <Deanodriver> all the time, when i try to write, it says that i don't have permissions to write to it
[04:26] <Giorgos[a] > erUSUL r u familiar with kvirc?
[04:26] <erUSUL> vivek: but does the router has a nameserver running
[04:26] <erUSUL> ?
[04:27] <knownot> i'm having problems with ubuntu on a dual core 805, specifically only one core is working, I can boot into linux-image-i386 fine, but when i ty linux-image-686 it hangs just after the grub screen. If I disable apic in my bois, the 686 image will boot, but with only one cpu
[04:27] <erUSUL> Giorgos[a] : sorry no irssi and xchat here
[04:27] <ThunderStruck> bbrazil: build-essential has alot fo stuff including make and gcc
[04:27] <bbrazil> snoops: make, gcc, g++ and libc-dev
[04:27] <bbrazil> and dpkg-dev
[04:27] <Giorgos[a] > well i will need ur help with irssi
[04:27] <Giorgos[a] > let me tell ya what error i get
[04:27] <vivek> erUSUL: i have an openwrt router and i have dropped in the dns addresses in there ...

[04:29] <knownot> Giorgos[a] : sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev
[04:29] <Deanodriver> i give up
[04:29] <skavenge> probably a simple question but konquerer isnt previewing my videos, do i have to turn this on/set this up?
[04:29] <Deanodriver> i'll take the hdd out of my server, put it in this, and copy the files over that way
[04:30] <erUSUL> vivek: the router should give you those adresses and not its adress as nameserver afaics
[04:30] <Deanodriver> i'm loath to do it, though
[04:30] <vivek> erUSUL: maybe i need to restart my router or something let me try that ..
[04:30] <bbrazil> Giorgos[a] : libncurses5-dev maybe?
[04:31] <knownot> skavenge: did you read the wiki entry on codecs?
[04:32] <knownot> no-one can help with my problem?
[04:32] <skavenge> knownot: uh yeah, i installed the lib i cant find that option to turn iton though

[04:33] <mikechml> er
[04:34] <knownot> no one?
[04:34] <Giorgos[a] > knownot it worked.after i run make and make install what do i type to start irssi?
[04:35] <sri_> Knonot what is ur problem?
[04:35] <bbrazil> Giorgos[a] : eh, irssi is in ubuntu
[04:35] <Giorgos[a] > not the terminal one;)
[04:35] <Giorgos[a] > the one i downloaded from the site the graphical one
[04:35] <knownot> i'm having problems with ubuntu on a dual core 805, specifically only one core is working, I can boot into linux-image-i386 fine, but when i ty linux-image-686 it hangs just after the grub screen. If I disable apic in my bois, the 686 image will boot, but with only one cpu
[04:35] <hastesaver> Help! I just destroyed my /mnt directory... what do I do?
[04:35] <vivek> erUSUL: tnx it worked after the reboot
[04:36] <knownot> hastesaver: try sudo mkdir /mnt
[04:36] <erUSUL> knownot: you need a smp version of the kernel
[04:36] <erUSUL> vivek: no problem
[04:36] <bbrazil> Giorgos[a] : it's the text one for me on dapper
[04:36] <knownot> erUSUL: I have one
[04:36] <hastesaver> "mkdir: cannot create directory `mnt': File exists". Should I remove it and try again?
[04:36] <knownot> the linux-image-2.6.15-26-686 is SMP
[04:36] <knownot> hastesaver: no
[04:37] <Giorgos[a] > erUSUL i downloaded the graphical ver of irssi.configured it make and make install done
[04:37] <Giorgos[a] > now what?:P
[04:37] <knownot> hastesaver: what do you mean destroyed?
[04:37] <Giorgos[a] > when i type irssi it starts the text one
[04:37] <knownot> Giorgos[a] : type irissiTABTAB and see what comes up
[04:37] <erUSUL> knownot: linux-686-smp
[04:38] <knownot> Giorgos[a] : should be something like irissi-gnome
[04:38] <erUSUL> Giorgos[a] : run it from a terminal 'irssi'
[04:38] <hastesaver> I installed "gmailfs", and I executed this: (sudo mount.gmailfs none /mnt -o username=gmailuser@gmail.com,fsname=zOlRRa -p) as given in the doc. That was stupid, I guess... :(
[04:38] <erUSUL> Giorgos[a] : irssi is curses mode only afaik
[04:38] <bbrazil> Giorgos[a] : The GTK and GNOME versions of irssi haven't been developed since early 2000, and currently lack much of irssi-text's functionality.
[04:38] <hastesaver> It tried to make /mnt the mountpoint of something, I think
[04:38] <bbrazil> Giorgos[a] : from description in sarge
[04:39] <a2xm> ic56: sorry, i was on the phone
[04:39] <ic56> a2xm: ok sudo gedit /etc/fstab  and comment out the entries for the 3 unwanted filesystems, by putting a sharp in from of each line. Eg: # /dev/hdb1 ...
[04:39] <a2xm> ic56: ok, i commented out
[04:39] <rowanjl> Hey, does anyone know if there is a repo with Mono 1.1.16? I need to upgrade, but don't want to use the installer, because it tends to make a mess.
[04:39] <ic56> a2xm: while you're there, delete the comments about "winmac_fstab" -- they're junk and annoying to anyone else you might call upon for help
[04:39] <a2xm> ic56: i did it too
[04:39] <Giorgos[a] > erUSUL i runned it from terminal but is starts the non-graphic mode
[04:39] <hastesaver> knownot, can you help?
[04:40] <a2xm> ic56: save it and exit... and then..
[04:40] <iBrood> can someone help a newbie set up mysql?
[04:40] <iBrood> I installed apache and php5 successfully
[04:40] <knownot> erUSUL: there is no smp linux-image in my repos
[04:40] <erUSUL> Giorgos[a] : this is what i use the text version
[04:40] <iBrood> using apt-get
[04:40] <iBrood> then as per ubuntuguide.org I also installed mysql
[04:40] <ic56> a2xm: ok. now: sudo umount /dev/hdb[156]
[04:41] <iBrood> but how do I configure the path and all?
[04:41] <knownot> hastesaver: know why my box wont work with smp
[04:41] <erUSUL> knownot: my mistake sorry the 686 kernel should work in smp hardware
[04:41] <tufsy> hi is there an equivalent program in linux for adobe audition/cool edit pro?
[04:41] <tufsy> !xgl
[04:41] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[04:41] <erUSUL> tufsy: audacity?
[04:41] <hastesaver> knownot, sorry, I'm too poor for this barter system to work :(
[04:42] <a2xm> ic56: cool... ;-)
[04:42] <bbrazil> iBrood: why not just use the ubuntu package?
[04:42] <a2xm> ic56:  that's it?
[04:42] <knownot> hastesaver: lol
[04:42] <ic56> a2xm: yes, that's it
[04:42] <iBrood> bbrazil:which package?
[04:42] <hastesaver> knownot, but do you have an idea what will happen now? I'm afraid of rebooting...
[04:43] <knownot> the linux-image-2.6.15-26-686 is labeled by apt as " Linux kernel image for version 2.6.15 on PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/PIV SMP/UP"
[04:43] <bbrazil> iBrood: mysql-server
[04:43] <iBrood> I used the apt-get command in ubuntu. doesnt that have the same effect?
[04:43] <iBrood> will it auto-configure?
[04:43] <a2xm> ic56: btw, what is the best way to upgrade from 5.10 to 6.06?
[04:43] <bbrazil> iBrood: it's just the binaries
[04:43] <knownot> hastesaver: what is mounted under /mnt usually?
[04:43] <ic56> a2xm: aren't you already on 6.06?
[04:43] <iBrood> ok
[04:43] <iBrood> I'll try
[04:43] <knownot> hastesaver:  nothing of importance to system booting usually
[04:43] <bbrazil> knownot: whatever you've currently got temporarily mounted
[04:44] <rowanjl> Nobody uses 1.1.16?
[04:44] <rowanjl> mono 1.1.16
[04:44] <knownot> bbrazil: was a specific question to hastesaver
[04:44] <a2xm> ic56: yes, i just curious, because i did it using the install icon from the desktop.. i heard it should be using apt-get upgrade?
[04:44] <jersymike> omg i havea mouse
[04:44] <miL> do you know if www.goear.com it has something to see with youtube?
[04:44] <knownot> erUSUL: any other ideas?
[04:44] <jersymike> but thats all so far lmao
[04:45] <bbrazil> iBrood: if you already apt-got it then it should all just work (tm)
[04:45] <ic56> !upgrade
[04:45] <ubotu> Upgrading to Ubuntu 5.10 breezy -> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyUpgrade  Upgrading to Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperUpgrades  Note: gksudo "update-manager -d" always updates to the latest development version.
[04:45] <knownot> jersymike: thats very observant
[04:45] <hastesaver> knownot, nothing in my /etc/fstab, and nothing listed by "mount". Does this mean it's safe??
[04:45] <DaveyJ> i messed up my volume control and i dont know how to fix it :(

[04:45] <knownot> hastesaver: most probably
[04:45] <ic56> a2xm: got that?

[04:45] <erUSUL> !kernel
[04:45] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux'). You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[04:45] <jersymike> ahhhhh i have something besides text on my screen
[04:46] <hastesaver> What do you get if you do "ls /mnt"? What's supposed to be in there?
[04:46] <Ropechoborra> Can anyone help me installing a program?? plz see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18084
[04:46] <knownot> erUSUL: compiling a kernel is easy enough, I would prefer to stay with the packaged version though, this may become a production machine
[04:46] <knownot> hastesaver: nothing
[04:46] <knownot> hastesaver: ubuntu seems to use /media for most stuff
[04:47] <hastesaver> knownot, yes, thankfully. Nothing at all in your /mnt? That's a relief :)
[04:47] <squidgy> Hi!  How does one make TAB-completion in bash successively fill in the completion possibilities rather than just printing a list of possible completions?
[04:47] <knownot> erUSUL: and I sleep easier knowing I havn't missed something
[04:47] <a2xm> ic56: i see
[04:47] <erUSUL> knownot: maybe booting with acpi=off help
[04:48] <hastesaver> squidgy, you want it to fill *all* the completions?
[04:48] <vivek> can dyndns help me get access to my pc which is configured (Internet--AdslModem/Router---Openwrtrouter--pc ... the basic objective is to ssh into my PC and edit the Openwrt router to end up with a Openwrt(running openvpn)--School(web proxy)--Internet---(HomeAdsl/router)--(openwrt router running openvpn) .... but i can't get back home untill the end of this semester ...
[04:48] <erUSUL> knownot: acpi is known to bo not reliable enough
[04:48] <jersymike> riddlebox: i put in the destop live cd and it went straight for loading something now im at a blank screen with a mouse.. did i do something wrong?
[04:48] <a2xm> ic56: what's this:  Note: gksudo "update-manager -d"
[04:48] <knownot> erUSUL: I have tried that, but the funny thing is, that dapper amd64/em64t works properly
[04:48] <hawkaloogie> squidgy, it fills in the rest of the possibility when there's only one possibility left
[04:48] <Ropechoborra> Can anyone help me installing a program?? plz see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18084 dont know what to do
[04:48] <squidgy> hastesaver:  no, just the next one alphabetically each time I press TAB, replacing the last candidate it inserted each time.
[04:48] <a2xm> ic56: gksudo?
[04:49] <knownot> erUSUL: but I don't want the hassle of beta testing x64 system
[04:49] <riddlebox> jersymike, reboot it, then when the cd asks you which to start arrow down to the second choice
[04:49] <ic56> a2xm: man is your friend.  Do you know man?
[04:50] <jersymike> safe grafics mode?
[04:50] <knownot> vivek: most probably not, the firewall wont know what to do with the incomming ssh attempt, unless you have already set it up
[04:50] <squidgy> hawkaloogie:  yes...on some system (maybe a different shell?), I could just press TAB and it would cycle through the remainint possibilities one at a time, so that I didn't have to disambiguate by typing then next differentiating letter.  Much faster than how it's setup here.
[04:50] <jersymike> riddlebox: start in safe grafics mode?
[04:50] <vivek> knownot: the firewall @ school ? i need to tunnel out .. so what's the other alternative ?
[04:50] <rowanjl> hmm, what is the best way to find out if there is a repo for Ubuntu with newer versions of Mono? Are there any lists of alternative repos?
[04:50] <knownot> squidgy: you mean microsoft windows? :(
[04:50] <nowell> hi all
[04:51] <knownot> nowell: hi
[04:51] <nowell> if anyone has a second, I just installed ubuntu for the first time, and I can't seem to get it to let me use my second HDD
[04:51] <a2xm> ic56: yes, i know man ;-)
[04:51] <nowell> i keep getting unable to execute pmount
[04:51] <knownot> nowell: what is the error msg
[04:51] <squidgy> knownot:  windows might do that, yeah, but bash completion blows it out of the water.  I think maybe it was tcsh back in the day.
[04:51] <ardchoille> I find it both humourous and annoying that people come onto an irc network for no other reason than to run exploits and knock others off the network. I feel sorry for those sick people.
[04:51] <nowell> and that i don't have the permissions to browse that volume
[04:52] <knownot> squidgy: google bash complition
[04:52] <hastesaver> squidgy, It's possible in bash
[04:52] <Jamo> how do I add ssh security to cvsd?
[04:52] <ic56> a2xm: then man gksudo.  The answer is on the first line.
[04:52] <hastesaver> squidgy, you have to set up your .inputrc ...
[04:52] <knownot> nowell: you know how to use sudo ?
[04:52] <nowell> nope, unfortunately heh
[04:52] <nowell> i'm pretty new to linux
[04:52] <nowell> and I'm loving ubuntu, except for this one problem
[04:52] <jersymike> riddlebox: what is it doing now? it says oading hardwaredrivers and is stoped
[04:53] <nowell> since the second hdd has all my media on it
[04:53] <squidgy> hastesaver:  thanks for the tip.  I'll google it.  is .inputrc specific to bash completion, or is it used for other things?  (rather unspecific file name)
[04:53] <knownot> nowell: try typeing this at the terminal -> sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt
[04:53] <jersymike> cough all his porn
[04:53] <nowell> actually
[04:53] <dek_aik> Ropechoborra: maybe you should "cd .." to get back to LMNE 1.0 folder..then do ./configure , make, sudo make install
[04:53] <nowell> now that you said that
[04:53] <hastesaver> squidgy, see http://www.ukuug.org/events/linux2003/papers/bash_tips/
[04:53] <knownot> squidgy: other things/all things bash
[04:53] <nowell> i just realized i formatted all my porn...
[04:53] <jersymike> lol
[04:53] <nowell> now I'm sad
[04:53] <riddlebox> jersymike, just give it a minute
[04:53] <joycetick> hi, when trying to access my ubuntu computer from a windows computer i get "The account is not authorised to log in from this station", any ideas?
[04:53] <knownot> nowell: NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
[04:54] <jersymike> lolz
[04:54] <Ropechoborra> dek_aik Thanks!
[04:54] <Jamo> what is a chroot jail?
[04:54] <knownot> joycetick: google samba permissions
[04:54] <jersymike> ok now im back at that blank screen with jus a mouse
[04:54] <hastesaver> squidgy, better solution
[04:54] <hastesaver> squidgy, you just have to do: bind '"\t":menu-complete'
[04:54] <knownot> Jamo: it's a method of containing a app to only have access to what it needs to operate, no more
[04:55] <Ropechoborra> dek_aik when ./configure  File or Dir dont exist
[04:55] <squidgy> hastesaver:  sweet.  thanks.
[04:55] <nowell> it says can't find /dev/hdb1/mnt in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[04:55] <syndicate47> hi. i'm trying to replace "Remote Desktop" (vino-server) with vnc4server. while Remote Desktop shows the desktop, vnc4server opens a new session with only a terminal and does not show the panels or the background. can i change vncserver to show what is on the server's desktop instead?
[04:56] <squidgy> hastesaver:  oh yeah, that's the stuff.  Did you find that in the link you pasted?
[04:56] <hastesaver> Ok, I'll just delete my /mnt and restore it, what the heck... the file doesn't even exit for me to move it away
[04:56] <nowell> and the bad part about the porn format..is that I had pics of a lady friend of mine..that will either be impossible or really hard to get again
[04:56] <dek_aik> Ropechoborra: usually there's a README or INSTALL,  read that first
[04:56] <Ropechoborra> Theres nothing
[04:56] <Ropechoborra> =(
[04:56] <knownot> nowell: type it as I wrote it --> sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt <-- without the "-->"
[04:56] <Ropechoborra> Already checked
[04:57] <knownot> nowell: think of the opertunities presented in getting them back
[04:57] <jersymike> riddlebox: now im at a screen where it says mindow mannager at the bottom and ubuntu at the top right
[04:57] <knownot> rowanjl:  what is the problem?
[04:57] <hastesaver> knownot, It's worse than that. I can't remove it, or move it, or anything. "cannot lstat `mnt': Input/output error". Do you know what to do now? :)
[04:57] <nowell> mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[04:57] <vivek>
[04:58] <dek_aik> Ropechoborra: try ls what do you have there
[04:58] <jersymike> should i be clicking something on this screen?
[04:58] <amgad> guys, can i copy the apt cache from one machine to another to say skip downloading updates and installed programs?
[04:58] <Ropechoborra> what?
[04:58] <knownot> hastesaver: it is a IDE drive, not SATA/scsi?
[04:58] <rowanjl> well, you see I need Mono 1.1.16, but I can't download the Mono Installer, and I can't find a repo with Mono 1.1.16
[04:58] <dek_aik> Ropechoborra: what files do you have there in LMME 1.0 folder
[04:59] <knownot> most filesystems are autodetected
[04:59] <Jamo> does anyone have experience setting up cvsd with ssh?
[04:59] <Ropechoborra> README (but its nothing important) and src
[04:59] <rowanjl> It takes a long time to download the Installer, and considering I have many of the things included in it already installed.
[04:59] <knownot> rowanjl: mono as in from the monowall project?
[04:59] <rowanjl> Er, the Mono project
[04:59] <nowell> hmm, what should i do now Knownot. It's asking to specify the filesystem type
[05:00] <n9urk> Can anyone in here help me with Audacity?
[05:00] <rowanjl> I have no idea what Monowall is
[05:00] <dek_aik> Ropechoborra: does it says anything about install step in README?
[05:00] <knownot> nowell: what type of filesystem is it? ntfs/fat/fat32/ext ???
[05:00] <rowanjl> Mono == .NET Framework
[05:00] <Ropechoborra> dek_aik no. just the author and his webpage..
[05:00] <shriphani> guys i am installing xfce will i then be able to use apps like skype etc. that i used in gnome ?
[05:00] <bbrazil> shriphani: everythign should work as it did in gnome
[05:00] <nowell> ok, ntfs, just add that to the end of the sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt?
[05:01] <knownot> rowanjl: soz no idea
[05:01] <jersymike> hmph
[05:01] <rowanjl> hmm
[05:01] <knownot> nowell: type it as I wrote it --> sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt -t ntfs<--
[05:01] <shriphani> will i then lose access to gnome ?
[05:01] <CaptainChris> hi all
[05:01] <XiXaQ> what is the quickest way to set up an ftp?
[05:01] <XiXaQ> server.
[05:02] <syndicate47> hi. i'm trying to replace "Remote Desktop" (vino-server) with vnc4server. while Remote Desktop shows the desktop, vnc4server opens a new session with only a terminal and does not show the panels or the background. can i change vncserver to show what is on the server's desktop instead?
[05:02] <knownot> XiXaQ: sudo apt-get install proftpd
[05:02] <bbrazil> rowanjl: monowall is a firewall distrobution
[05:02] <livingdaylight> hi! ok, i installed nvidia glx but i get a blank screen upon reboot,so i had to take graphics card out. Any ideas?
[05:02] <rowanjl> bbrazil: just googled it ;)
[05:02] <FunnyLookinHat> XiXaQ, sudo apt-get install vsftpd
[05:02] <FunnyLookinHat> XiXaQ, sudo reboot
[05:02] <nowell> knownot: Special device does not exist
[05:02] <shriphani> bbrazil, will i then be able to use gnome ?
[05:02] <bbrazil> rowanjl: my isp decided that 1 hour was enough time to have an ip address :)
[05:02] <knownot> FunnyLookinHat: you don't need to reboot
[05:02] <dek_aik> Ropechoborra: sorry i dont know what to do next...maybe just a simple compilation of C program...i dont remember how to do that, only done it once
[05:02] <FunnyLookinHat> knownot, it's easier than explaining to someone how to start a service.
[05:02] <Jamo> how do I change the root's password, err sudo's password, so it isn't the same as my user account? *hasn't this occurred to anyone as being a stupid idea?
[05:03] <Ropechoborra> dek_aik ok ty
[05:03] <hastesaver> knownot, I fixed my system, and all it took was a "umount /mnt". Thanks for the hints, and sorry I can't help you with smp :)
[05:03] <bbrazil> Jamo: that's not how sudo works - you give it your password
[05:03] <nowell> hmmm. it looks like it's mounted the HDD but it keeps telling me i don't have the permissions to access it
[05:03] <knownot> FunnyLookinHat: v/pro ftpd is started by dpkg isn't it?
[05:03] <dpn> Whats the best mp3 player?  Xmms isn't playing out of my rear speakers and theres no option to enable them in the settings
[05:03] <bbrazil> Jamo: root doesn't have a password in ubuntu
[05:03] <Jamo> bbrazil, yes but my jamo user shouldn't have all that power
[05:03] <knownot> hastesaver: np
[05:03] <shriphani> dpn banshee is good
[05:03] <FunnyLookinHat> knownot, not sure.  can't remember, it's been a while since I installed it on my server
[05:03] <CaptainChris> i'm french and i speak not very english
[05:03] <linuxuser> how would i view klogd files?
[05:04] <bbrazil> Jamo: any account you use to acces root is equivilent from a security perspective
[05:04] <rowanjl> bbrazil: my ISP decided that it likes the idea of corrupting downloads... hence why I can't download the mono Installer :(
[05:04] <dpn> Thanks, I'll try it
[05:04] <hastesaver> Jamo, then make a new user who is not in "admin" group
[05:04] <knownot> linuxuser: tail -f /var/log/klogd
[05:04] <Jamo> bbrazil: this is a fundamental security flaw in sudo?
[05:04] <bbrazil> rowanjl: you must have dodgy hardware, TCP allows for that
[05:04] <linuxuser> thank you
[05:04] <Ropechoborra> CaptainChris #ubuntu-fr
[05:04] <Ropechoborra> ?
[05:04] <bbrazil> Jamo: no, a general security principle
[05:04] <knownot> linuxuser: or cat  /var/log/klogd | less
[05:04] <shriphani> erm will i be able to use gnome after i install xfce ?
[05:04] <bbrazil> rowanjl: unless they're *really* out to get you
[05:05] <bbrazil> shriphani: yes
[05:05] <Giorgos[a] > anyone knows what to do
[05:05] <Giorgos[a] > with this: ### Can not find the X libraries.
[05:05] <linuxuser> command not found
[05:05] <hastesaver> Jamo, no, this is how it's supposed to work --- you're admin, and can do root-y things with sudo. How's it different from knowing the root password? ;)
[05:05] <shriphani> oh so i should select at boottime ?
[05:05] <rowanjl> bbrazil: by corrupting I mean sending me the wrong packet every so often
[05:05] <FunnyLookinHat> rowanjl, tcp is supposed to account for that.
[05:05] <bbrazil> rowanjl: that happens, tcp has stuff to handle that
[05:05] <rowanjl> sometimes large files will download, other times not
[05:05] <knownot> Giorgos[a] : apt-get install xorg*-dev
[05:05] <rowanjl> bbrazil: but it doesn't :P
[05:05] <linuxuser> knownot: file not found message
[05:06] <bbrazil> rowanjl: are they sending RSTs?
[05:06] <Jamo> so I should create a psuedoroot user who has a root quality password, then use him to do admin level stuff?
[05:06] <FunnyLookinHat> rowanjl, try downloading it via a torrent, because that has a second line of error checking on bad downloads.
[05:06] <linuxuser> dapper runs like crap
[05:06] <bbrazil> Jamo: you can if you want
[05:06] <rowanjl> bbrazil: no idea
[05:06] <bbrazil> rowanjl: anything else, it should handle
[05:06] <knownot> linuxuser: if your using ubuntu, try the menu at the top of your screen--> system, administration, log viewer
[05:06] <rowanjl> FunnyLookinHat: yeah, thats a good idea, but it will still take me 12 hours
[05:06] <bbrazil> Jamo: at that point, just set a root password and only use root from the console
[05:07] <FunnyLookinHat> rowanjl, either way, it will work.  : )
[05:07] <nowell> knownot: It looks like the problem is somewhere in my permissions, not mounting the hdd
[05:07] <bbrazil> rowanjl: rsync?
[05:07] <CaptainChris> i have a problem with my locales on dapper drake ( system in english) UTF-8 but GNU solfege and azureus said locales: unsorpported locales.
[05:07] <hastesaver> Jamo, that's how it's set up by default, but if you're uncomfortable with it, just enable the root account (sudo passwd) and make a new powerless user :)
[05:07] <FunnyLookinHat> rowanjl, sounds like you should complain to your iSP
[05:07] <knownot> nowell: when you use sudo you are root. root = god
[05:07] <rowanjl> FunnyLookinHat: I did, and they said I was using the wrong browser...
[05:07] <Jamo> meh, clearly this is highly discouraged, the documentation doesn't do a good job of explaining why
[05:07] <CaptainChris> Ropechoborra, i come here to maitain my english
[05:07] <rowanjl> Supposedly it IE or its nothing
[05:08] <fourat> hello all
[05:08] <nowell> yea, heh but when i try to browse it from my places>computer it tells me i don't have permission for it
[05:08] <CaptainChris> anyone know the probleme
[05:08] <rowanjl> bbrazil: what is rsync?
[05:08] <fourat> i've got a very very bad experience with Ubuntu :( :( :(
[05:08] <dpn> Where do I configure audio options in Ubuntu
[05:08] <XiXaQ> I installed proftpd. Will it use my system accounts?
[05:08] <fourat> i saw that there were a 'hibernate' button, clicked on it and all went down
[05:08] <knownot> XiXaQ: yes.
[05:09] <fourat> fsck thrown 10000 errors
[05:09] <fourat> and my inodes are deleted :(
[05:09] <hastesaver> !sudo > Jamo
[05:09] <knownot> XiXaQ: might pay to do a quick google search for "ubuntu proftpd"
[05:09] <XiXaQ> what are the ports for ftp and ssh?
[05:09] <fourat> XiXaQ, 21 ftp 22 ssh
[05:09] <knownot> ftp 20/21 ssh 22
[05:09] <dpn> Anyone here able to get xmms to output to all 4 speakers with 5.1 speakers?
[05:09] <fourat> XiXaQ, grep ftp /etc/services
[05:09] <CaptainChris> anyone understand ?
[05:09] <dash`> can I update java via aptitude or synaptic?
[05:09] <knownot> fourat: ftp uses 20 as well
[05:09] <dpn> well, all 5
[05:09] <fourat> knownot, ftp-data
[05:10] <fourat> ok
[05:10] <knownot> CaptainChris: mabe you should try the C locale
[05:10] <jersymike> does ne one know a way to format my hdd? if it has no os on it
[05:10] <rockz> how i change the color of slab control center ?
[05:10] <Giorgos[a] > knownot next error : ### Can not find the qt .. header files.
[05:10] <Giorgos[a] > LooooooooooooooooL
[05:10] <fourat> is there a netinstall ISO for Ubuntu ?
[05:10] <fourat> or Kubuntu
[05:10] <CaptainChris> how ?
[05:10] <CaptainChris> by sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales ?
[05:10] <knownot> jersymike: sudo mkfs.(FSTYPE) /dev/(HDD)
[05:11] <knownot> Giorgos[a] : what are you building?
[05:11] <Giorgos[a] > kvirc 3.2.3
[05:11] <Giorgos[a] > LooooooooooooooooL
[05:11] <jersymike> hmm
[05:11] <knownot> Giorgos[a] : you can't use apt?
[05:11] <bbrazil> rowanjl: its for transfering files. it has various algorithms to only transfer the bits that need to be transfered.
[05:11] <Giorgos[a] > it wont find it;)
[05:11] <ThunderStruck> Giorgos[a] : no need for all the o's
[05:12] <hastesaver> !netinstall > fourat
[05:12] <bbrazil> rowanjl: so you could run it on a bad downlaod and use whaterver of it is valid
[05:12] <Giorgos[a] > yeah soz
[05:12] <rowanjl> bbrazil: interesting, could you suggest how I might use it?
[05:12] <bbrazil> rowanjl: first find a mirror that supports rsync
[05:12] <rowanjl> ahh :/
[05:12] <XGas> Errr, how do I install the C headers data for my release(any)
[05:13] <knownot> Giorgos[a] : pastbin you sources.list
[05:13] <fourat> wich is suiter to use ? KDE Kubuntu or GNOME Ubuntu ?
[05:13] <knownot> !pastebin
[05:13] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[05:13] <bbrazil> rowanjl: then rsync local.file rsync://server/path/to/file
[05:13] <ThunderStruck> Giorgos[a] : to maek it more clear please sont use multiple letters like that thank you
[05:13] <rowanjl> bbrazil: is there a simple way to check?
[05:13] <drbreen> !ltsp
[05:13] <ubotu> I know nothing about ltsp - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:13] <XGas> Errr, how do I install the C headers data for my release(any)?
[05:13] <Giorgos[a] > ThunderStruck i turned it off
[05:13] <bbrazil> rowanjl: if it's a ubuntu file, ftp.heanet.ie should have it
[05:13] <hastesaver> fourat, Gnome is simpler to use. If you get sick of its simplicity and ease-of-use, try KDE
[05:13] <bbrazil> nosklo: not fully sure though, you could check the ubuntu mirrors list
[05:14] <rowanjl> bbrazil: I think the Ubuntu version is out of date
[05:14] <dmsantam> every now and then, my mouse pointer disapears. if i go to a virtual terminal (ctrl-alt-F5 for example) and then back to X, its back.
[05:14] <knownot> hastesaver: so you can spend countless hours configuring KDE to you likeing, I switched back to gnome :P
[05:14] <jersymike> ugh
[05:14] <bbrazil> rowanjl: what do you mean?
[05:14] <dmsantam> the mouse can still click on things, i just can't see the pointer. why might that be
[05:14] <Giorgos[a] > knownot  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18089
[05:14] <jersymike> this is makeing me madded and madded
[05:14] <CaptainChris> knownot ??
[05:14] <jersymike> eks
[05:14] <XGas> Where do I get the C header files?
[05:14] <bbrazil> Giorgos[a] : kvirc is in dapper
[05:14] <jersymike> mader and mader*
[05:14] <bbrazil> XGas: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:14] <rowanjl> bbrazil: well, I want Mono, but Ubuntu only has version 1.1.13
[05:15] <XGas> I just need the package name
[05:15] <Giorgos[a] > bbrazil it has the 3.2.0 i need the 3.2.3 ;)
[05:15] <XGas> no, the C header files for the kernel
[05:15] <knownot> CaptainChris: ?
[05:15] <XGas> not package
[05:15] <bbrazil> XGas: there's kernel headers packages
[05:15] <CaptainChris> i reconfigure local in C with sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales or sudo dpkg-reconfigure localeconf ?
[05:16] <dash`> can I update java via aptitude or synaptic?
[05:16] <Astinus-> Where do i put a process to always start when ubuntu starts?
[05:16] <XGas> whats the command, someone gave it to me yesterday, and I didn't write it dowm, and now cause I'm testing some software, its messed up, so I reinstall, so now I neeed the files again.
[05:16] <ThunderStruck> dash`: yes if there are upgrades for it
[05:16] <bbrazil> CaptainChris: locales
[05:16] <knownot> Giorgos[a] : does it need to be that specific version?
[05:16] <ThunderStruck> !headers
[05:16] <ubotu> To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages
[05:17] <ThunderStruck> XGas: ^^^
[05:17] <bbrazil> rowanjl: grab the source and build then I guess
[05:17] <dash`> I was having troubles with Azureus, I have java 1.4.2 or something, and need 1.5.0_7 or something for it to work
[05:17] <CaptainChris> ok , i try
[05:17] <XGas> its goes like Linux-header-$(uname -r) <<<<-------Is this wrong?
[05:17] <dash`> but I do not really know where to look for those packages
[05:17] <Giorgos[a] > knownot yes cause 3.2.0 i cannot change banmasks
[05:17] <ThunderStruck> XGas: type uname -r in terminal tell me the output
[05:17] <phunkalicious> you can change it somehow
[05:17] <Giorgos[a] > and other staff that can be changed in 3.2.3
[05:18] <carthik> Astinus-, http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/09/07/adding-a-startup-script-to-be-run-at-bootup/
[05:18] <XGas> Heh, its reinstalling now, so I'm just asking, I know what package its is, I just need the package files for the Ubuntu 6.06 release.
[05:18] <Jamo> how do I modify user's groups from command line?
[05:18] <Giorgos[a] > so knownot how can i install the  qt .. header files.
[05:18] <ThunderStruck> XGas: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.whatever kernel version
[05:18] <XGas> so is the command: Linux-header-$(uname -r) ?
[05:18] <Doat> Jamo: gpasswd
[05:18] <knownot> Giorgos[a] : try apt-get install qt-dev
[05:19] <nordle> Is there an _easy_ way to obtain the FULL list of updates since 6.0.6 was released?  I ask becuase suse has a seperate repo called updates, so its easy, but last time I checked ubuntu appeared to require downloading the full 4GB repo or..... thanks.
[05:19] <XGas> I skiped the sudo apt-get install
[05:19] <Jamo> doat: thx
[05:19] <knownot> Giorgos[a] : can it be 3.2.0?
[05:19] <Doat> np
[05:19] <XGas> nvm
[05:19] <XGas> Thanks for the help.
[05:19] <XGas> see ya.
[05:19] <Giorgos[a] > knownot i have 3.2.0 but it doesnt have many options that i need
[05:19] <ThunderStruck> XGas: the $(uname -r) means to put the output of uname -r there
[05:19] <CaptainChris> that goes, i speak well english ? you understand me ?
[05:19] <carthik> Jame, adduser is what you want... add a user to a group
[05:19] <knownot> Giorgos[a] : k
[05:19] <carthik> Jamo, adduser is what you want... add a user to a group
[05:20] <dash`> can anybody tell me where to look to find a newer version of java for Ubuntu?
[05:20] <ThunderStruck> dash`: in synaptic its 1.5
[05:21] <ThunderStruck> dash`: its in the multiverse repo
[05:21] <FunnyLookinHat> dash`, are you using sun-java5-jre ?  that's the best u can get technically b/c it's from sun
[05:21] <nowell> knownot: new problem..I got in to browse the hdd..but nothing is showing up
[05:21] <Jamo> !java dash'
[05:21] <ubotu> I know nothing about java dash' - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:21] <knownot> nowell: ?
[05:21] <dash`> I don't know what I have atm
[05:21] <Jamo> !dash' java
[05:21] <ubotu> I know nothing about dash' java - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:21] <Jamo> great
[05:21] <trispace> is there a vmware-player-kernel-modules package for kernel 2.6.15-26?
[05:21] <carthik> Jamo !tell dash` about java
[05:21] <UKMatt> I know windows uses NTFS, and ubuntu uses ext3, but why is that?  why doesn't linux or osx use ntfs?
[05:21] <dash`> Jamo :: its a ` not a ' :P
[05:21] <ThunderStruck> !java
[05:21] <ubotu> java is an object oriented programming language. To install a java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java For the runtime Sun Java install sun-java5-jre from the Multiverse repository
[05:22] <Jamo> dash': there is a java page on help.ubuntu.com that somewhat explains it, I just dealt with it let me know if you have any problems
[05:22] <nowell> knownot: I'm no longer getting an error when i browse the HDD, but it's showing 0 files, but over 140gigs used
[05:22] <carthik> UKMatt, it is rather like why Germany does'nt adopt English
[05:22] <lopzided> what file do i edit to add an event to cron?
[05:22] <knownot> nowell: soz, battery flat, will be dc'd soon
[05:22] <carthik> lopzided, use crontab -e
[05:22] <phaedrus44> trispace: isnt called vmplayer?
[05:22] <trispace> lopzided: add one in /etc/cron.d
[05:22] <carthik> that's the command, lopzided
[05:23] <knownot> nowell: are you sure it's ntfs?
[05:23] <UKMatt> carthik, but isn't one of the major problems for linux the fact that it has a hard time interacting with windows?  wouldn't it make sense to "adopt english" to help more people convert?
[05:23] <lopzided> tjamls carthik, trispace
[05:23] <nowell> positive
[05:23] <trispace> phaedrus44: ?
[05:23] <nowell> i've been using this hdd for a year now
[05:23] <knownot> nowell: and nothing is showing up in /mnt ?
[05:23] <lopzided> uhh....i mean 'thanks', carthik, Trinisan
[05:23] <carthik> UKMatt, would help if the filesystems (NTFS) didn't suck so bad... a lot of what Unix is about (permissions etc) is not supported by win filesystems
[05:23] <lopzided> *trispace
[05:23] <void^> UKMatt: sure, just ask microsoft if they're willing to give ntfs away for free
[05:24] <bbrazil> carthik: eh, ntfs has permissions
[05:24] <UKMatt> void^, ah thats what i thought it might be
[05:24] <riddlebox> knownot, wouldnt it be /media
[05:24] <UKMatt> what does OSX use?
[05:24] <bbrazil> UKMatt: hfs+ I think
[05:24] <phaedrus44> trispace: soory nevermind
[05:24] <void^> UKMatt: besides ntfs isn't better than ext3, reiser4 etc. or any other decent journaling fs
[05:24] <dash`> Jamo :: on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java#head-12dfa90d1580b2a1d946cc628a1c0d2bdaa5b259 ?
[05:25] <Jamo> dash' yeah
[05:25] <UKMatt> how are they all different
[05:25] <carthik> bbrazil, yes, but they are different.
[05:25] <lopzided> what is the difference in cron.d, ccron.daily, cron.hourly, cron.monthly, crontab, and cron.weekly?  if i add an event to cron.monthly, does it run monthly?  in that case, what is cron.d?
[05:25] <bbrazil> carthik: they're ACLs
[05:25] <carthik> UKMatt, refer tot he wikipedia.
[05:25] <bbrazil> lopzided: cron.d is like extra crontabs
[05:26] <ddonky> what's the name of the ubuntu forums irc room?
[05:26] <bbrazil> ddonky: #ubuntuforums
[05:27] <carthik> UKMatt, but a simple answer to your question is that the creators of NTFS haven't made available all the information and permission for it to be used freely. Linux offers you a range of filesystems (I swear by jfs), any of which you can use to build your system.
[05:27] <vivek> knownot: er tunneling out of the school is not a big problem. ... i just need the config to let my pc accept ssh connections ... i am a bit confused as the pc is behind two routers ...
[05:27] <gimmulf> Hmm cant mount some partitions it just says: ount: you must specify the filesystem type   when doing:   sudo mount /dev/hda3 /mnt/hdb3
[05:27] <ddonky> bbrazil - thanks, for some reason I thought it had a - in the name
[05:28] <trispace> gimmulf: try mount -t auto /dev/hda3 /mnt/hdb3
[05:28] <UKMatt> carthik, what do you like about jfs, i have ext3 on ubuntu and I really don't see any difference in the way it runs from ntfs, except that like you said permissons and all
[05:28] <gimmulf> trispace:  same error
[05:28] <trispace> gimmulf: or specify the filesystem you're using
[05:28] <bbrazil> ddonky: it's not an official channel, so it's lacking the -
[05:28] <carthik> gimmulf, or if you know the FS use -t ext3 or -t vfat for example
[05:29] <dash`> ok, I think I have it all tworking
[05:29] <dash`> how can I check it?
[05:29] <riddlebox> jersymike, hows that install going?
[05:29] <carthik> UKMatt, http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/388 and a few other things that are probably just subjective
[05:30] <Jamo> how do I chage a user's group?
[05:31] <carthik> Jamo, read man useradd
[05:31] <carthik> Jamo, or use System->administration->users graphically
[05:31] <Jamo> wasn't helpful, nvm it was gpasswd I needed
[05:32] <sg1>  hello how do i open rar files, when i click them it says archive type not supported and i cannot find linuxrar deb anywhere?
[05:32] <UKMatt> carthik, to get the fs of your chosing, do you have to choose the distro that uses it or is there a way to change from within your own distro to another
[05:33] <santa99> sgl: there should be a package named rar
[05:33] <Jamo> there are soooo many obscure group names
[05:33] <carthik> UKMatt, initially, during install, you can manually choose the FS for your partitions
[05:33] <dash`> how do I check what version of java I have?
[05:34] <Jamo> java -version
[05:34] <jmac__> I am dual booting XP/NTFS and Ubuntu. I resized the NTFS volume but qtpart doesn't allow me to increase the size of the Ubuntu partition. Anyone know how this can be accomplished?
[05:34] <miL> do you know if www.goear.com it has something to see with youtube?
[05:34] <UKMatt> carthik, now i heard ext4 is out, any idea when that will be adopted?
[05:34] <dash`> hmm
[05:34] <rysiek|pl> is there an usplash-guru in the house?
[05:34] <dmsantam> jmac__, you have to not be using the partition
[05:34] <dmsantam> jmac__, this means use a livecd
[05:35] <dash`> I have tried to update java via the help page on ubuntu.com, but it apparently didn't upgrade
[05:35] <dpn> Sigh, why does everything in linux have to be a battle
[05:35] <sladen> rysiek|pl: just ask
[05:35] <jmac__> I tried it with gpart bottable disk and it wouldn't work
[05:35] <sladen> jmac__: gparted bootable disk? (?!)
[05:35] <JDStone> jmac__: boot a knoppix disc and use qtpart
[05:35] <dpn> Does anyone have any experience with xmms and getting 5.1 sound working without it being shitty sounding
[05:35] <sg1R>  hello how do i open rar files, when i click them it says archive type not supported and i cannot find linUXRAR DEB anywhere?
[05:36] <zammit> Hello, i'm attempting to install ubuntu on a system with no current OS, the desktop install keeps freezing at "Mounting root file system" - i'm new to linux in general, could anyone help me troubleshoot?
[05:36] <ompaul> dpn, please mind the langauge
[05:36] <rysiek|pl> I was trying to set my own usplash on Dapper (following the how-to from help.ubuntu.com, which - o, the irony! - I have written by myself for Breezy), made a typo somewhere and now I haven't got an usplash neither at boot nor at halttime
[05:36] <sladen> dpn: do you have your volume turned up too high, turn them all down to below 80%

[05:36] <Jamo> zammit: which partitioning option did you use?
[05:36] <UKMatt> carthik, have you seen this http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=23836054&forum_id=2697
[05:36] <trispace> [Ex0r] : go ahead
[05:37] <zammit> jamo, i never got to specify any partitions.
[05:37] <sladen> rysiek|pl: check that you have an image that is exactly 640x400 and then run   sudo update-initramfs -u `uname -r`  at the end
[05:37] <rysiek|pl> update-a;ternatives --config usplash-artwork.so gives the choice as it should, dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-`uname -r` goes well, but no usplash on reboot
[05:37] <[Ex0r] > trispace- i've got postfix running, but I can't send outgoing mail. I tried emailing my yahoo account last night and never got the message
[05:37] <trispace> [Ex0r] : what do the logs say?
[05:37] <Jamo> zammit: you didn't get as far to even select which harddrive or partition to install on?
[05:37] <rysiek|pl> sladen: the image should be 640x480 IMHO. I have checked this while usplash was working AOK
[05:37] <[Ex0r] > trispace- nothing at all
[05:37] <zammit> jamo, no i did not
[05:38] <Jamo> zammit: are you sure the harddrive works?
[05:38] <zammit> jamo, i inserted the cd - got the install screen, chose the first option - that was pretty much it
[05:38] <rysiek|pl> sladen: ok, trying with update-initramfs
[05:38] <trispace> [Ex0r] : postfix always logs something
[05:38] <[Ex0r] > trispace- it did but didn't log any errors
[05:38] <zammit> jamo, i just bought the harddrive, wd 40gig, my motherboard detects it properly
[05:38] <trispace> [Ex0r] : just look again
[05:38] <dash`> I tried to upgrade java on my machine via the help page on ubuntu.com, but it apparently didn't upgrade, am I missing something?
[05:39] <Jamo> dash`: what error are you receiving?
[05:39] <dash`> no error, but when I check the version, its the same as it was
[05:39] <johso> hiya ppl. I just did a "rm -r *" in the wrong directory. now, on a ext3 partition, this is usually the end of things. but I'm hoping that it would be possible to recover files on a fat32 drive? I've unmounted the drive, so that I wont accidentally destroy my chances to restore.
[05:39] <Jamo> zammit: perhaps try to find a disc you can boot into and check out the hard drive
[05:39] <sg1R>  hello how do i open rar files, when i click them it says archive type not supported and i cannot find linUXRAR DEB anywhere?
[05:39] <trispace> [Ex0r] : is there a "status=sent" message for the specific mail?
[05:40] <ardchoille> !rar > sg1R
[05:40] <Jamo> dash`: what version of java is it telling you that you have?
[05:40] <joycetick> you need to install the archive manager (i think), sudo apt-get install rar
[05:40] <dash`> 1.4.2
[05:40] <sladen> rysiek|pl: no.  the image should be 640x400.
[05:40] <zammit> jamo, okay i'll look into that, thanks for the help!
[05:41] <rysiek|pl> sladen: hmmm... cpio: ./usr/lib/usplash/usplash-artwork.so: No such file or directory
[05:41] <trispace> [Ex0r] : the postfix/smtp should log something like: to=<foo@bar>, relay=foo.bar[xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] , delay=yy, status=sent
[05:41] <dash`> http://pastebin.arslinux.com/3520
[05:41] <Jamo> dash`: someone else is going to have to help you, I noticed this same problem when I tried to get java5 going on the desktop installation
[05:41] <dash`> for all the info
[05:41] <sladen> rysiek|pl: check that the image is exactly 640x400 and 16 colours
[05:41] <Sanne> johso: I once restored files on a fat32 partition I had deleted in Windows, and restored from within Windows. I don't know if this is an option for you.
[05:41] <sg1R> thank you
[05:41] <tom1502> does anyone knows which software ubuntu uses to realise Hibernation, and in which file i can set logfile and increase verbosity?
[05:41] <Jamo> dash`: it has java5 installed, it just also have 1.4.2 installed
[05:41] <trispace> [Ex0r] : grep your mail-log for the mailaddress
[05:42] <bbrazil> tom1502: it's in the kernel.
[05:42] <rysiek|pl> sladen: m'kay, creating a test image, 640x480, 16 colours
[05:42] <sg1R> another question about applications, is there any program like x netstat that shows active anv listening connections in a GUI interface?
[05:42] <dash`> Jamo :: shouldn't it default to the newer one then?
[05:42] <rysiek|pl> sladen: sorry, ...x400
[05:42] <tom1502> bbrazil, so no swsusp or suspen2?
[05:42] <[Ex0r] > damn I can't even remember where it's at :\
[05:42] <Jamo> dash`: I think someone made a mistake :(
[05:42] <fourat> why shipit.ubuntu.org does not ship dvds ?
[05:42] <bbrazil> tom1502: I'm not up in this area
[05:42] <trispace> [Ex0r] : look at your syslog configuration
[05:42] <ZorK-> Anyone got free time to help me, please PM me! My problem: When I <try> to install Ubuntu from LiveCD (pressing the install on desktop) all the 6 steps go through fine, i find the harddrive i want to install it on, i made a new harddrive to swap. But when i press finish and such, it says "openeing the partitioning program" and loads. but then it just closes and goes back to the desktop like nothing ever happened :/ Anyone know what the problem is
[05:42] <joycetick> sg1R: do this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#How_to_install_RAR_Archiver_.28rar.29
[05:43] <tom1502> bbrazil, do u know anyone i could ask?
[05:43] <Jamo> dash`: you probably no more about linux than me, maybe you can figure out how to uninstall 1.4
[05:43] <bbrazil> tom1502: acpi is probably what you should poke into, especially in /proc
[05:43] <johso> Sanne: Actually, I deleted Windows just yesterday, but I haven't installed anything on the partitiion yet. I could possibly install it again, but I was wondering if this would ruin my chances to restore things on the fat32 drive (in some weird way)?
[05:43] <dash`> Jamo ::  I doubt that
[05:43] <dash`> I have used it for 5 days now
[05:43] <trispace> [Ex0r] : syslogd-listfiles --weekly
[05:43] <tom1502> bbrazil, well i've found the file /etc/default/acpi-support, but i dunno the syntax to control log and verbosity...
[05:44] <tom1502> bbrazil, coz hibernation works... sometimes
[05:44] <wheelswitch> im trying to use crontab to schedual rhythmbox to open, but it isnt working
[05:44] <tom1502> bbrazil, and i want to find out what causes errors
[05:44] <Jamo> I wanna say 4 days for me :p I gave up on using ubuntu for my desktop somewhat because of the same problem you're running into now.  I'm using the server now which didn't come with 1.4 by default so 5 installed fine
[05:44] <bbrazil> tom1502: I imagine errros will be in dmesg
[05:44] <tom1502> bbrazil, not really
[05:44] <Sanne> johso: do you plan to install Windows to the same partition where you want to restore files on? If so, it would highly reduce your chances. You must not touch the partition, because the recoverable files could be overwritten.
[05:44] <wheelswitch> 43 * * * * /usr/bin/rhythmbox is the command im using, also tried 43 * * * * rhythmbox but that doesnt seem to work either, this ofcourse is displayed when i type crontab -l
[05:44] <[Ex0r] > ah, I think that's why
[05:44] <tom1502> bbrazil, well nothing i can really use
[05:44] <dek_aik> tom1502: maybe /etc/hibernation/hibernation.conf ?
[05:44] <lotwook> !microphone
[05:44] <ubotu> I know nothing about microphone - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:44] <[Ex0r] > no virtual.db table
[05:45] <sg1R> thanks
[05:45] <bbrazil> tom1502: ton of stuff in /etc/acpi
[05:45] <tom1502> dek_aik, nope, i dont have this folder
[05:45] <wheelswitch> !crontab
[05:45] <ubotu> I know nothing about crontab - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[05:45] <Redman276> i know  with  redhat there is  kudzu  , is ther a similar  autodetece / configur  program  to detect  new  hardware ?
[05:45] <tom1502> bbrail, mh good idea :-)
[05:45] <UltraMagnus> hi, could anyone help me with a problem please, when i suspend my laptop with ubuntu, when i resume and the password box comes up, neither my keyboard or touchpad works (laptop) however my external trackball works fine
[05:45] <dek_aik> tom1502: sorrry /etc/hibernate/hibernate.conf ?
[05:45] <[Ex0r] > trispace- isn't it makemap hash /map file ?
[05:45] <bbrazil> wheelswitch: that won't work, DISPLAY isn't set
[05:45] <johso> Sanne: No, on the same partition I used before. But I just want to make 100% sure that the fat32 drive is not affected in some weir way (by swapping empty space, what do I know) when I install Windows on the empty partition?
[05:46] <bbrazil> wheelswitch: what are you trying to do?
[05:46] <KeithWeisshar> why does the desktop cd install to the mbr without asking
[05:46] <trispace> [Ex0r] : no, postmap hashtype:filename
[05:46] <hastesaver> Has anyone got gmailfs working?
[05:46] <tom1502> dek_aik:
[05:46] <tom1502> thomas@toshiba:~$ ls /etc | grep hibern
[05:46] <tom1502> thomas@toshiba:~$
[05:46] <wheelswitch> bbrazil:  set up an alarm clock
[05:46] <KeithWeisshar> i have a new windows pc with a recovery partition and have created the recovery dvd
[05:46] <bbrazil> wheelswitch: use mpg321, doesn't need X
[05:46] <ZorK-> Anyone got free time to help me, please PM me! My problem: When I <try> to install Ubuntu from LiveCD (pressing the install on desktop) all the 6 steps go through fine, i find the harddrive i want to install it on, i made a new harddrive to swap. But when i press finish and such, it says "openeing the partitioning program" and loads. but then it just closes and goes back to the desktop like nothing ever happened :/ Anyone know what the problem is
[05:46] <bbrazil> wheelswitch: assuming an mp3 file
[05:47] <vook> here's an idea that is going to save me a lot of time in the future.  I've added this as the last line of my .bashrc     sudo chown myuser.myuser /home/myuser  It also adds an extra layer of shell security.
[05:47] <KeithWeisshar> i don't have fixmbr need to restore the windows mbr
[05:47] <wheelswitch> no easy way of getting rhythmbox to work?
[05:47] <vook> ooop, forgot the -r
[05:47] <zool2005> hi all
[05:47] <colk> KeithWeisshar, its in the windows recovery console
[05:47] <yabba> ZorK-, I also had problems with the live-CD install. its really no good solution, if everything fails you might want to try the alternative install cd
[05:47] <colk> you have to boot to that
[05:47] <bbrazil> wheelswitch: there is, but it depends on a pile of other stuff - like you being logged in
[05:47] <jeff_> does anybody know how to set alt+space as the access key for deskbar?
[05:47] <Sanne> johso: I don't know what Windows may do :). You will have to take your chances, I think. Isn't there some Windows live CD wioth recover tools? Would be handy for such cases.
[05:47] <hastesaver> vook, why do you need that? Those ownerships should be so by default. Why would they be different?
[05:47] <KeithWeisshar> i don't have a real windows cd
[05:48] <zool2005> can anyone tell me how to change the background behind the splash screen after login please?
[05:48] <KeithWeisshar> all i have is a burned recovery dvd from the recovery partition
[05:48] <wheelswitch> computer is always logged in, never sleeps. bbrazil
[05:48] <[Ex0r] > there, I got it to send mail out, now to get it to receive mail
[05:48] <Viper550> Guess what, USlab is getting closer to being a part of Ubuntu!
[05:48] <brrrt> how can i find out which kernel boot parameters are used at live-cd boot?
[05:48] <trispace> brrrt: cat /proc/cmdline
[05:48] <ZorK-> yabba: Thanks . going to download now :P
[05:48] <brrrt> thx!
[05:48] <KeithWeisshar> when it boots it asks if i want to restore my system
[05:48] <yabba> :)
[05:48] <Sanne> johso: wait!
[05:48] <bbrazil> wheelswitch: you can try adding DISPLAY=:0 to start of the crontab
[05:48] <KeithWeisshar> there is no recovery console on the dvd
[05:49] <vook> hastesaver, because the constant sudoing creates root ownership at times in home, plus, why not have another layer of security?  anyway...whatever :)
[05:49] <bbrazil> wheelswitch: *:0.0
[05:49] <johso> Sanne: Oh, yeah, you're reminding me of something - I once used Ultimate Boot CD to reformat a harddisk that was totally broken. I think there were some recovery tools on it too. I must try it out...
[05:49] <Sanne> johso: read this: http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ it seems to have a recover tool, here: http://www.partition-recovery.com/
[05:49] <sg1R> hey does anyone know where i can get cdemu, Or any such application that is equivilant to Daemon Tools, THanks
[05:49] <Sanne> johso: lol, that's what it seems to be :)
[05:49] <johso> Sanne: lol, same conclusion ;)
[05:49] <bbrazil> sg1R: sudo mount /path/to/image /mnt -o loop
[05:49] <vook> hastesaver, it also sets up the shell for further sudoing...
[05:49] <Sanne> johso: so then, good luck!
[05:49] <dek_aik> tom1502: i control my hibernate from that conf but i think you should apt-get install hibernate..the config present the choice of suspend2, acpi and sys_fs_power_state
[05:50] <tom1502> sg1R, what do u want to do
[05:50] <johso> Sanne: thanks for the help, much appreciated. gonna take my chances now :P
[05:50] <wheelswitch> so the crontab file would read "DISPLAY=:0 \n 08 08 * * * runwhateverblah"  bbrazil ?
[05:50] <[Ex0r] > Why not just use Hiren's BootCD?
[05:50] <sg1R> tom mount cd images
[05:50] <Sanne> johso: :)
[05:50] <tom1502> dek_aik, do u use binary video drivers?
[05:50] <tom1502> sg1R, which type?
[05:50] <bbrazil> wheelswitch: It's ":0.0", I'm not fully sure this'll work
[05:50] <marcus__> can anybody tell me how to configure ubuntu so i can use my usb-modem avm fritz!box fon? Its a new dapper installation, kernel 2.6.15-23, modules cdc_ether and usbnet are loaded. booting knoppix, it orks out of the box...
[05:50] <KeithWeisshar> fixmbr isn't included with the gateway
[05:50] <sg1R> tom1502, iso,bin,cue,ccd etc
[05:51] <tom1502> sg1R if it is VCD/SVCD, u can open the .bin direcly with VLC
[05:51] <trispace> sg1R: you cannot mount cuesheets
[05:51] <[Ex0r] > wow.. that completely didn't work
[05:51] <tom1502> .cues do not work under unix
[05:51] <tom1502> trispace, thx :-)
[05:51] <sg1R> well tom1502, its more ISO and BIN than anything
[05:51] <tom1502> well, which CONTENT?
[05:51] <wheelswitch> bbrazil:  20 secs till we find out...
[05:51] <bbrazil> sg1R: for iso and bin, use the commadn I gave
[05:51] <dek_aik> tom1502: i dont know..lol..newb..but my card is nvidia-legacy from ubuntu repo..hibernate works very well with suspend2 or acpi
[05:51] <sg1R> Thanks I never knew VLCPLayer could do that, damn that things can do everything
[05:51] <morrolan> Since upgrading to Dapper, I cannot see colour when navigating files in Gnome Terminal (irc is fine)
[05:52] <[Ex0r] > postfix won't send the messages to the appropriate users
[05:52] <UltraMagnus> hi, could anyone help me with a problem please, when i suspend my laptop with ubuntu, when i resume and the password box comes up, neither my keyboard or touchpad works (laptop) however my external trackball works fine
[05:52] <sg1R> ive wrote it down bbrazil thanks, what exactly does that do make a fake drive or what?
[05:52] <wheelswitch> bbrazil:  genious, thanks heaps.
[05:52] <brrrt> what is the difference between live-cd and installations hardeware detection?
[05:52] <ardchoille> morrolan: Did you change the colours in your ~/.bashrc?
[05:52] <bbrazil> sg1R: makes the cd part image of the filesystem
[05:52] <tom1502> dek_aik, with sudo hibernate?
[05:52] <trispace> [Ex0r] : without showing some log information we can't help you
[05:52] <sg1R> ok thanks alot
[05:52] <bbrazil> wheelswitch: I don't think it's the right solution, but if it works...
[05:53] <tom1502> dek_aik, or do u use the GNOME GUI button "hibernate"?
[05:53] <[Ex0r] > trispace- It puts the messages on the server, but doesn't deliver them to the addresses
[05:53] <morrolan> ardchoille:  No I haven't, and I didn't before.
[05:53] <bbrazil> sg1R: linux doesn't have 'fave drives', just one big filesystem
[05:53] <bbrazil> sg1R: *fake
[05:53] <trispace> [Ex0r] : once again: show the logs and postfix configuration
[05:53] <sg1R> one of my last questions is, as asked before, MOnitoring software, Netstat related a GUI like X Netstat, and a app for monitoring everything processes etc,
[05:53] <ardchoille> morrolan: ok, I was just asking because I learned how to turn colours off in bash just yesterday
[05:54] <brrrt> my via-rhine works fine with the live-cd but not on the installation   :(   ...   any hints?
[05:54] <tom1502> sg1R, a task manager?
[05:54] <morrolan> ardchoille: ahh, ok.  I don't suppose you have a copy of your old .bashrc do you?
[05:54] <bbrazil> sg1R: top for processes, for network there's many options inculding ntop, iptraf, bmon, etherapr
[05:54] <morrolan> adrchoille: that's probably exactly what I need
[05:54] <dek_aik> tom1502: sorry, i use kubuntu..but for hibernate i make a script (the battery button is not showing)...hibernate is a symlink to /usr/share/hal/scripts/hal-system-power-hibernate
[05:54] <ardchoille> morrolan: I have a copy of the one that was shipped with Dapper. Want me to pastebin it?
[05:54] <tom1502> dek_aik, k
[05:54] <rysiek|pl> sladen: created a 640x400 16-colour image, update-initramfs -u `uname -r` still gives me this error
[05:54] <dek_aik> tom1502: yes sudo hibernate
[05:54] <tom1502> dek_aik, thx anyway
[05:55] <morrolan> ardchoille: please, but I don't know how to get it, new to irc
[05:55] <tom1502> dek_aik, ill try the hibernate script!
[05:55] <rysiek|pl> sladen: cpio: ./usr/lib/usplash/usplash-artwork.so: No such file or directory (and in fact this file does not exist O_o`)
[05:55] <ardchoille> morrolan: hold on :)
[05:55] <morrolan> ok
