[14:57] <chesty> psnel: what's the ip address of one of the hosts that's trying to connect through the fw?
[14:57] <kljb> bofh80, would be nice
[14:57] <jrib> blahblahx: does the same thing happen with a different dvd?
[14:57] <soundray> oj: got it
[14:57] <bofh80> kljb, cool gimmie 5
[14:57] <blahblahx> uhh let me see jrib
[14:57] <psnel> chesty: 10.0.0.x
[14:57] <J-23> !universe
[14:57] <Innatech> psnel: yes, the interface names can change sometimes. You can use ifrename (I think that's what it's called) to force the interfaces to have the names you're expecting by MAC.
[14:57] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[14:58] <Brazilian> Ximal, "Access denied for user 'localhost_ximal'@'localhost' (using password: YES)" looks liek you are using a wrong password?
[14:58] <jrib> blahblahx: maybe it should be 'mplayer dvd://1'
[14:58] <soundray> oj: it's unusual to have a /dev/hdb when no /dev/hda is present. This indicates that your 204GB drive is set to slave mode. When no master is present, this could lead to problems such as you describe.
[14:58] <Ximal> so do i need to use my ... local login to my machine
[14:58] <psnel> Innatech: ifrename. thanks (it seems to work otherwise, but do you think that might be causing a prob somewhere?)
[14:58] <Ximal> because i havent touched mysql since i installed lamp..
[14:59] <oj> soundray: yeah my master is my cdrom
[14:59] <Ximal> i'm assuming i need to create a login and access file ?
[14:59] <Richie> Hi, for some reason my sound will stop working after a couple of hours. I go System > Preferences > Sound and when i hit Test i get this: audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=chat: Internal data flow error.
[14:59] <soundray> oj: oh
[14:59] <Ximal> brazilian ?
[14:59] <Innatech> psnel: probably not, but if it does that's how to fix it.
[14:59] <apex`> hi
[14:59] <GameCat> hi - can someone help me with a compile that is failing because configure doesn't see pthreads?
[14:59] <oj> soundray: even if that was the reason, still doesn't explain how it slowed down over time...it wasn't like this like a month ago...
[15:00] <zarath> After resizing an NTFS partition I get the following error: 'current ntfs volume size is bigger than the device size'. It cannot be mounted any more. It won't boot into WinXP either (but my Linux partition is fine). What tools can I use to try to fix the errors or recover some data?
[15:00] <soundray> oj: did it slow down gradually or suddenly?
[15:00] <J-23> Who can send me Gusty sources.list?
[15:00] <oj> soundray: suddenly.
[15:00] <soundray> !easysource | J-23
[15:00] <ubotu> J-23: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[15:00] <jrib> GameCat: what are you compiling?
[15:00] <bullgard4> What does 'lock' identify in Configuration Editor > gnome-power-manager > lock?
[15:00] <jrib> J-23: gutsy?  weren't you on feisty?
[15:00] <chesty> psnel: there's a file in /etc that maps mac addresses to ethx names, when you've upgraded the hardware, that file still has the old mac addresses in it
[15:01] <GameCat> jrib: libupnp (for ushare - http://ushare.geexbox.org/) and I'm on 6.06 LTS
[15:01] <soundray> oj: okay, let's see what's going on with your drive. Enter 'sudo hdparm -i /dev/hdb'. What setting do you see under "AdvancedPM"?
[15:01] <Innatech> psnel: so far as your /etc/shorewall/masq goes: you want ppp0 to masquerade traffic for eth3 and ppp1 to masquerade traffic for eth3? No other interfaces need NAT?
[15:01] <rOGAL> Can someone help me to instal wifi driver ipwraw?
[15:01] <opla> opla opla
[15:01] <Richie> Hi, for some reason my sound will stop working after a couple of hours. I go System > Preferences > Sound and when i hit Test i get this: audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=chat: Internal data flow error.
[15:01] <soundray> oj: feel free to pastebin this as well
[15:01] <jrib> GameCat: and you cannot use libpnp0 from the repositories?
[15:01] <jrib> GameCat: and you cannot use libupnp0 from the repositories?
[15:02] <Innatech> gamecat: so you're the guy with my old nick. You win a feather!
[15:02] <oj> soundray: AdvancedPM=yes: disabled (255)
[15:02] <GameCat> jrib: it needs > 1.4.2 and the repo has libupnp 1.2.something
[15:03] <GameCat> Innatech: hehe as long as it's a pink one :)
[15:03] <chesty> psnel: /etc/iftab look in that file (if it exists, it may not)
[15:03] <oj> soundray: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46578/
[15:03] <Magik2> I have an odd boot problem during install.   I've disabled quiet and splash from the boot options.  The boot process stops after this line.  input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /class/input/input1  It never moves past this point.
[15:03] <jrib> GameCat: 'sudo apt-get build-dep libupnp0' will probably help, but you should consider upgrading to a more recent version of ubuntu
[15:03] <chesty> psnel: compare it to your installed mac addresses
[15:03] <J-23> "E: Package gparted has no installation candidate" :(
[15:03] <J-23> But I have installed Ubuntu with Wubi...
[15:03] <jrib> J-23: 'sudo apt-get update'
[15:04] <psnel> Innatech: no. home-LAN (<IP_ADDRESS>) is attached to eth3; (actually to eth2 as well, but that one is for bridging ADSL on the ADSL router which is in bridge mode... and is the main LAN switch :-)
[15:04] <J-23> jrib: Thanks!
[15:04] <GameCat> jrib: cheers I'll try that, and I'll upgrade when the next LTS is out - that's kinda the point of em
[15:04] <jrib> GameCat: not if you want recent software though
[15:04] <soundray> oj: nothing too unusual in there. Have you rebooted since you noticed these delays?
[15:05] <Faithful> I have just removed compiz from my notebook to see if it is it causing lockups... How do I set metacity to be my WM now?
[15:05] <oj> soundray: yeah lots of times, booted into windows and back also.. windows runs fine, no delay in opening anything.
[15:05] <psnel> Innatech: i.e. yes: ppp0+ppp1 ->NAT->eth3; no: none other
[15:05] <KnickLighter> Hello everyone, i cant get my ubuntu 7.10 cd to start up, it gives me 'buffer i/o error on device fd0, logical block 0'
[15:05] <Innatech> psnel: so you have two PPP uplinks (presumably load balanced or using tcrule or route_rules) and you want to NAT eth3 traffic through both of them. If so, then your conf looks correct.
[15:05] <bofh80> hey kljb you there? http://www.ranchits.co.uk/skype-debian_<IP_ADDRESS>-1_i386.deb
[15:05] <GameCat> jrib: yeah, well, mostly I'm not bothered about the latest, but I just discovered this thing that will let me serve photos to my xbox360 :)
[15:06] <sandaru1> Faithful: metacity --replace
[15:06] <GameCat> jrib: no biggie if I fail miserably, it's just an interesting way to waste a sunday afternoon :)
[15:06] <rOGAL> Can someone help me to instal wifi driver ipwraw?
[15:06] <psnel> chesty: /etv/iftab - has comment #...  This file is no longer used ... \n.. #eth0 mac 00:40:f4:6e:29:7a
[15:06] <Faithful> sandaru1 will that be permanent?
[15:06] <kljb> thx bofh80, i am just downloading
[15:06] <twager_> Runnning compix ok  with gnome but would like to get the explosive icon setup...Anyone tell me what I need ?
[15:06] <Slue_Gniffer> So, I just downloaded WINE 0.9.50 and I can't seem to get the iexplorer.exe to work, I start it up and I get a blank window..I already downloaded Gecko when it asked me to..
[15:06] <oj> soundray: even startup takes a while for the desktop and icons to load... it does load the panel "partially" then after a few seconds it'll sorta refresh and load up proper.
[15:07] <Innatech> psnel: I know this is basic, but have you checked to make sure that IP forwarding is enabled/being enabled since your upgrade?
[15:07] <Chu1> Hi, I'm trying to run "Commandos: behind enemy lines" in WINE in ubuntu - but it seems to run too fast. Is there any way I can slow it down?
[15:07] <Paddy_EIRE> !effects | twager_
[15:07] <ubotu> twager_: Desktop Effects are supported on graphics cards that use the default Intel and ATI drivers and the restricted !NVIDIA drivers, except for the following, which are blacklisted due to stability/compatibility issues: Intel 965, ATI Rs480 and Rv350, ATI Mobility x300, x600 and x700 - Join #compiz-fusion for anything not officially supported by Ubuntu
[15:07] <soundray> oj: thinking...
[15:07] <sandaru1> Faithful: nop. a workaround is to put metacity --replace into session startup.. you might as well playaround the session files a bit.. then you'll find where it's loading compiz
[15:07] <soundray> oj: do you have a file "/etc/default/hdparm" ?
[15:08] <twager_> Paddy_EIRE: Thanks
[15:08] <danin1> ok
[15:08] <oj> soundray: nope
[15:08] <Becky> hi, i booted from the liveCD and it looks like this ... http://girlzone.me.uk/misc/temp/ubuntu.png
[15:08] <Faithful> sandaru1: THANKS
[15:08] <jeroen_> bb
[15:08] <psnel> Innatech: sort of right, ppp0 is default/ ppp1 has manual routes for SA-networks set via cron script with many "route add .." 's (not elegant)
[15:08] <Becky> how do i make the desktop look normal :)
[15:08] <kakoonia> hey
[15:08] <soundray> oj: good, it can't be that then. Is there a /etc/laptop-mode/laptop-mode.conf ?
[15:09] <chixiang> hello. everyone!
[15:09] <chesty> psnel: so i noticed from your paste, there are no packets out in the ppp+_masq chains
[15:09] <bluevapour> Hey has anyone had experiance setting up shared folders for windows computers?
[15:09] <psnel> Innatech: hmmm no
[15:09] <oj> soundray: yes
[15:09] <EtteSB> Becky: i get something like that now and then. i just cut the power, then restart after about 10 secs and it loads fine
[15:09] <Faithful> I think that might be my problem... I have an intel 965 but it does not detect right... rather as a 945 therefor not blacklisted.
[15:09] <oj> soundray: along with a bunch of other files in that laptop-mode folder.
[15:09] <kljb> bofh80, same problem :-(
[15:10] <bofh80> kljb, :(#
[15:10] <Becky> EtteSB: it does it every time :(
[15:10] <lumpy> hello all
[15:10] <Chu1> Hi, I'm trying to run "Commandos: behind enemy lines" in WINE in ubuntu - but it seems to run too fast. Is there any way I can slow it down?
[15:10] <vox> Becky: are you using a dual-head video card?
[15:10] <Becky> no, paralells on a mac
[15:10] <kljb> bofh80, well thx anyway
[15:10] <bofh80> kljb, what sound card do you have?
[15:10] <soundray> oj: I take it you don't have a laptop, though... could you pastebin the contents of that file pls?
[15:11] <bofh80> kljb, and possibly i missed it earlier does skype give off any specific errors?
[15:11] <vox> Becky: ok, when the livecd boots, go to advanced i think, and try a different display mode.
[15:11] <psnel> chesty: i don't know what that might imply?
[15:11] <ScreaM> kljb ÑëÓõÀé --> ëîõ?)
[15:11] <Becky> ok i will try that
[15:11] <J-23> How can I move ext3 partition back?
[15:11] <oj> soundray: correct, I don't have a laptop.. here's the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46579/
[15:11] <sandaru1> Chu1: you might have already checked this.. some games have speed controls within it's settings.. you might as well try that if Commandos have that
[15:12] <kljb> I have 3 soundcards, 1 onboard, deactivated in bios, a SB Live 5.1 which is supposed to work with skype/headset, and a 3rd one (working) for mp3. Skype doesnt give any real errors, both Skype and Ekiga just say: Problem with audio-device. Thats why i guess its blocked, but i cant check that
[15:12] <Becky> where is advanced? :)
[15:12] <J-23> I have free space between partitions :|
[15:12] <PiZzA> Hello, may anyone help me installing my USB - Soundcard :-( I don't get it working with ALSA
[15:12] <Chu1> sandaru1 - first thing I checked, no such luck =(
[15:12] <chesty> psnel: my guess was the source address filters <IP_ADDRESS>/24 and <IP_ADDRESS>/16 were wrong, but from what you said, they look ok
[15:12] <ScreaM> PiZzA ÑëÓõÀé --> hello
[15:13] <Innatech> psnel: do cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward and make sure it returns 1
[15:13] <vox> Becky: it's one of the options. it says "press <something> for more options" or similar
[15:13] <kakoonia> hey, where can i find all the file associations? which *.x opens x-application...?

[15:14] <Chu1> thanks, I'll have a go
[15:14] <ScreaM> LjL ÑëÓõÀé --> ïàøîë íàõóé
[15:14] <vox> Becky: one of them will be for video options. it's been about a year since i used the livecd so im unsure
[15:14] <psnel> oInnatech: in /etc/networks/ptions.dpkg-bak there's a line "ip_forward=no" .. might be (where do i set ip_fwd again?
[15:14] <soundray> oj: here's something worth trying: in line 200, the value of CONTROL_HD_IDLE_TIMEOUT is 1. Set that to 0, then do a 'sudo invoke-rc.d laptop-mode restart'. See if that changes anything.
[15:14] <sandaru1> kakoonia: do you want all file associations? you can right click the file, go to properties and see the associated application with that extension
[15:14] <ScreaM> ýé áëÿ ïèäàðàñû êóäà ìíå çàéòè???

[15:15] <Becky> oh, i tried to force it to 640x480  but it still boots up with 1280x1024 looking like that mess
[15:15] <psnel> /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward returns 0 :-))
[15:15] <vox> Becky: mmm try 1024x768
[15:15] <Becky> i did :(
[15:15] <kakoonia> sandaru1: yea.. i know this one.. and for all?
[15:15] <sandaru1> kakoonia: if you want all, you'll have to check the .desktop files. /usr/share/applications/
[15:15] <Becky> none of them helped
[15:16] <kakoonia> sandaru1: ok.. thanks :)
[15:16] <oj> soundray: nope, still the same

[15:20] <oj> soundray: not that i know off, it's very quite.
[15:20]  * Ximal turns on the music and loads up the kandlestick !
[15:20] <psnel> chesty: about your previous comment... i could never fuogure out why this line was in my ">route" output..
[15:20] <baba__> hi

[15:20] <civiXier> whatever i do it freezes. kernel panic when i try enable ad-hoc, the computer quit responding when Im trying to enable roaming mode through network settings in x...
[15:20] <oj> soundray: could it be because of any software installed?
[15:21] <soundray> oj: it's possible, but I can't think of anything that would cause this
[15:22] <Ximal> ompaul : if i installed LAMP shoudln't mysql and php be running/installed though ?
[15:22] <oj> soundray: I've been trying to uninstall Screenlets but dunno how... i installed it by following some readme instructions.
[15:23] <Innatech> psnel: well, I'm not entirely clear on how your network is laid out, or what that second subnet in your pastebin is for....where is the SOCKS proxy? On the firewall?
[15:23] <ricksta1080> what are some recommended programs to download for xubuntu?
[15:23] <ompaul> Ximal, so why are you at that point on the page - I think you are not following it if you have installed mysql and php yiou should not be there on the page it should be working already
[15:23] <soundray> oj: if you suspect desktop software, it's worth creating a new user and logging in as that. If it doesn't happen to another user, your configuration in $HOME would be to blame.
[15:23] <kazol> I can't mount a samba share-I get "session setup failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)"
[15:23] <oj> soundray: okay...i'll test it...
[15:23] <jgrout> Where can I change the ammount of virtual desktops?
[15:23] <Ximal> because ompaul : when I try to install my forum ... using either the login for my username or a created one for the forum i made up..
[15:24] <oj> soundray: suppose it turns out that is the reason, do you know a way to find out what in my $HOME would be causing the slowdown?
[15:24] <Ximal> it gives me some error about mysql not working and the username being invalid..
[15:24] <psnel> chesty: <IP_ADDRESS> .. eth3; does that come from the /etc/shorewall/masq file (paste)?
[15:24] <Ximal> so I'm assuming I need to install / configure mysql somehow with a username/password
[15:24] <ompaul> Ximal, your issue is with setting up mysql then
[15:24] <psnel> Innatech: yes, same host as gateway
[15:24] <aubre> hey , anyone use boot camp to dual boot ubuntu and leopard?
[15:24] <psnel> Innatech: ..which had internet access
[15:24] <sandaru1> jgrout: right click the workspace switcher -> properties

[15:25] <aubre> what file system does leopard use?
[15:25] <ricksta1080> macbooks are quite expensive, arent they?
[15:26] <ompaul> aubre, whatever apple tells it to
[15:26] <ompaul> aubre, ##apple might help you
[15:26] <aubre> doh I was in the wrong channel :/
[15:26] <tom__> anyone? how do i replace usplash with splashy please?
[15:27] <ompaul> !usplash | tom__
[15:27] <ubotu> tom__: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[15:27] <Innatech> psnel: well, presuming that the proxy is listening on an address in the local zone and sending on an address in the $FW zone, then I would think it would have worked even w/o routing enabled, but I'm not a LARTC/Netfilter/Shorewall expert.
[15:27] <ricksta1080> tom__, i think sits under settings manager... and then from there, there u should be able to change the splash
[15:27] <aubre> for ubuntu I was thinking of going intel with processor, wifi and video
[15:28] <kakoonia> sandaru1 : i installed alsa-drivers... through add/remove progs. is it good enough?
[15:28] <EtteSB> if anyone uses Pidgin here, where do i stick new plug-ins?
[15:28] <sandaru1> kakoonia: alsactl --ver
[15:28] <kakoonia> sec
[15:29] <kakoonia> 1.014
[15:29] <kakoonia> 1.0.14
[15:29] <bullgard4> What does 'lock' identify in Configuration Editor > gnome-power-manager > lock?
[15:29] <sandaru1> kakoonia: latest stable is around 1.0.15.. www.alsa-project.org
[15:29] <psnel> Innatech: i don't know what the second subnet is the paste is for either, it ends up in my routing table as: <IP_ADDRESS>     *               <IP_ADDRESS>     U     1000   0        0 eth3
[15:29] <oj> soundray: nope, it's still the same even if i switch users
[15:29] <rpedro> just dist-upgraded to gutsy and everything seems fine, despite many third-party repos/packages! is there a good list of issues I should be looking out for?
[15:30] <soundray> oj: did you log out the first user for testing?
[15:30] <oj> soundray: yeah, i logged out and logged in as a new user
[15:30] <sandaru1> kakoonia: it may not work.. but it's worth trying
[15:30] <spydon> Does anyone know any good websites for buying linux clothing? :P
[15:30] <kakoonia> sandaru1: thanks alot..
[15:30] <aubre> is Intel the only video manufacturer who gives out the info needed for truly free video drivers?
[15:30] <Innatech> psnel: I don't *think* it's from shorewall....none of my shorewall routers generate anything like that from masq settings.
[15:30] <andrea_> hi
[15:30] <soundray> bullgard4: whether or not you are asked for your password when you resume
[15:30] <kakoonia> ye :)
[15:31] <kakoonia> ok.. chao ;T
[15:31] <Innatech> psnel: do you have some interface that ubuntu might be trying and failing to pull DHCP on?
[15:31] <psnel> Innatech: as a matter of fact, i've been chatting here through that SOCKS proxy, so it's been working from the gateway (this host) and started working from LAN when I enabled IP-forwarding just now
[15:31] <sandaru1> spydon: i think your question fits #ubuntu-offtopic
[15:31] <graelin> How can I change the font colors on the gnome panle?
[15:31] <civiXier> what is :ava in wlan0:ava?
[15:31] <Ein_> hi
[15:31] <oj> soundray: i'm stumped.. going to go out get some dinner. ty for ur help
[15:32] <soundray> oj: too bad I couldn't really help. Enjoy your dinner.
[15:32] <bullgard4> soundray: In what form or format will I be asked? (I am asking because there is an error in my Ubuntu 7.10.)
[15:32] <spydon> hehe ok, I didn't know there were suck channel sandaru1  :P
[15:32]  * ^garfield2^ is away (I am Off Line Now...)
[15:32] <EtteSB> if anyone uses Pidgin here, where do i stick new plug-ins?
[15:32] <rpedro> aubre: ATI has also begun releasing specifications for their cards, and there is also the new Noveau project drivers Nvidia cards...
[15:32] <oj> soundray: thanks anyway...looks like a backup+reformat will do =)
[15:32] <Ein_> any one can help me to install beryl?
[15:33] <soundray> bullgard4: a password dialog pops up on an otherwise black screen. If you have a problem, why don't you describe it to the channel?
[15:33] <soundray> oj: a laborious cop-out ;)
[15:33] <Innatech> psnel: no, I mean the SOCKS proxy should have been able to do its job w/o routing between the subnets, presuming it was listening in the loc zone and connecting out from within the $FW zone. In that scenario, packets aren't being routed between subnets. But, if it's working now I wouldn't worry about it too much.
[15:33] <bullgard4> soundray: I dis so  before but got no response.
[15:33] <bullgard4> did
[15:33] <_virus_> Howdy, I have some issues trying to turn the most annoying feature ever implemented for X off... namely Emulate3Buttons... setting it to false in /etc/X11/xorg.conf doesnt seem to help.
[15:33] <bullgard4> soundray: Is ther a name for that password dialog?
[15:34] <soundray> oj: although after everything we've tried, you might spend more time on troubleshooting than you would on reinstalling.
[15:34] <civiXier> why do I get a kernel panic when I write 'sudo ifdown wlan0'?
[15:34] <civiXier> happens everytime :(
[15:34] <sandaru1> EtteSB: usually there a install script with the plugin
[15:34] <soundray> bullgard4: I don't know
[15:34] <_virus_> wlans are especially prone to violence :-P
[15:34] <kazol> I can't mount a samba share-I get "session setup failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)"
[15:35] <bullgard4> soundray: Ok, thank you for commenting and explaining.
[15:35] <LiMaO> _virus_: run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[15:35] <_virus_> oh thanks
[15:35] <sandaru1> EtteSB: if there is not, you may try coping files to /usr/lib/pidgin/ or /usr/local/lib/piding/
[15:35] <LiMaO> _virus_: i'll ask you about every and all 'annoying' feature, so that you may turn it off
[15:35] <soundray> bullgard4: if you're not getting a response, it's perfectly okay to repeat after 10 minutes or so. Rephrase your question if you can.
[15:35] <Ellias> kazol: check you security settign in your smb.comf
[15:35] <thor> kazol: did you define an smb password (smbpasswd)
[15:35] <psnel> Innatech: not sure. DHCP happens on "ADSL-bridge/LAN-switch". there are 2 connections between the gw and "ADSL..device".. one via eth2 (no IP/DHCP) and the other eth3 (LAN)... There is an issue with eth2 i'm not sure about: in /etc/networks/interfaces -> iface eth2 inet ipv4ll (the ipv4ll flag)
[15:35] <EtteSB> sandaru1: Thanks
[15:35] <LiMaO> _virus_: i just don't understand why emulate3buttons is annoying. if you have a 3 buttons mouse it'll do nothing at all
[15:35] <kazol> thor, Ellias: It worked perfectly before.
[15:36] <Ximal> what's the default password for mysql when it install ? anyone ?
[15:36] <LiMaO> Ximal: no password
[15:36] <Ximal> ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'paducahguy'@'localhost' (using password: YES) is what I get ..
[15:36] <kazol> thor, Ellias: Then I deleted the exact cmd I used before, now it doesn't work.
[15:36] <LiMaO> Ximal: you shouldn't use a password
[15:36] <Ellias> kazol: do you use any authentication to get to your samba share?
[15:36] <LiMaO> Ximal: also, the default user created for mysql is root
[15:36] <Innatech> psnel: do you have multiple interfaces on the shorewall plugged into the same switch?
[15:36] <Ximal> I'm installing a forum and mysql is asking for a password
[15:36] <psnel> Innatech: yup :-/
[15:37] <LiMaO> Ximal: if the server is yours, the mysql user should be root and the password should be left blank
[15:37] <Ximal> well I want to change the password on it m8..
[15:37] <beasty> LiMaO: that's pretty secure :p
[15:37] <Innatech> psnel: that's officially bad. The shorewall docs state explicitly not to do that.
[15:37] <LiMaO> Ximal: if it's someone else's server, you gotta use the username/password provided to you
[15:37] <Ximal> that's all i wanna do :)
[15:37] <Ximal> I am using lamp..
[15:37] <beasty> Ximal: get phpmyadmin :p
[15:37] <LiMaO> beasty: that's just to make sure it's working
[15:37] <LiMaO> Ximal: let me give you the command to change the password
[15:37] <sandaru1> Ximal: mysqladmin -uroot password
[15:38] <Innatech> psnel: if it's a smart switch you might be able to get away with it. But it's not supported.
[15:38] <Ximal> thanks sndaru ..
[15:38] <psnel> Innatech:i know, but it's bridging to the ADSL network. that happens on mac level doesn't it
[15:38] <LiMaO> Ximal: there it is.. sandaru1 is correct
[15:38] <Ximal> mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
[15:38] <Ximal> error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'
[15:38] <Ximal> that's what i'm getting guys..
[15:38] <psnel> Innatech: what 'smart' feature is going to make it ok?
[15:39] <sandaru1> Ximal: sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart
[15:39] <psnel> Innatech: it was the cheaper option for my home network
[15:39] <Ximal> ok ??
[15:40] <sandaru1> then try the above command again
[15:40] <sandaru1> mysqladmin one ^
[15:40] <markovicn> ok
[15:40] <Ximal> mysqladmin -uroot password ?
[15:40] <soundray> sandaru1: won't he have to enable TCP connections somehow?
[15:40] <Chippo> hi! can anybody help me with some sound problems?
[15:40] <Ellias> ximal: it should be blank
[15:40] <sandaru1> Ximal: yes
[15:40] <Innatech> psnel: so-called 'smart switches' are  more selective about which ARP requests go where, which is what confuses shorewall/netfilter/linux if I read the docs correctly.
[15:41] <Ximal> same error
[15:41] <sandaru1> soundtray: i think he has just install mysql
[15:41] <soundray> sandaru1: exactly
[15:41] <Ximal> i don't even get asked for or prompted for a password when i do the mysqladmin command you gave me..
[15:41] <Ximal> yes..
[15:41] <chesty> psnel: I think <IP_ADDRESS> is for zeroconf like things, I don't think they're meant to be routed, I think they are meant to be local to a link
[15:41] <Ximal> i installed lamp about 4 days ago..
[15:41] <Ximal> I spent 2 days learning to configure htaccess
[15:41] <Ximal> now i'm working on mysql configurations :)
[15:41] <LiMaO> Ximal: mysqladmin -uroot the-password-you-want-to-use-here
[15:42] <LiMaO> Ximal: then to login, your username is root and your password is what you typed above
[15:42] <sandaru1> LiMa0: no, it's just 'password'
[15:42] <Ximal> error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'
[15:42] <Innatech> psnel: in short, the gateway will respond to an ARP WHOHAS request on all interfaces for any configured address. When multiple interfaces are plugged into the same switch, this has 'unpredictable' results.
[15:42] <Ximal> hmm
[15:42] <LiMaO> sandaru1: what's the command to setup the password in one line only?
[15:42] <Ximal> i have an idea..
[15:42] <LiMaO> sandaru1: Ximal is probably confusing himself on simple commands
[15:42] <kazol> Ellias: I just used something like: "sudo smbmount //<IP_ADDRESS>/documents-server /home/administrator/Desktop/Documents-Server -o username={username},password={passwd},uid=1000,mask=000
[15:43] <sandaru1> LiMaO: mysqladmin -uroot password newpassword ?
[15:43] <Ximal> no..
[15:43] <bullgard4> [Gutsy] Gnome main menu System > Quit > Hibernate obtains only a password dialog and a tooltip:"Problem with the Suspend mode. The change to Suspend state failed..." Filling in my password  returns me to the outset but my LAN connection is lost.
[15:43] <Ximal> i'm not limao..
[15:43] <civiXier> which file holds the information about wlan0?
[15:43] <psnel> chesty: please explain zeroconf, and 'local to a link'. Is it safe to remove that from the shorewall masq file?
[15:44] <Ximal> mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) is what i'm getting..
[15:44] <Ximal> should i just purge and reinstall the newer mysql ?
[15:44] <Ximal> it will prompt me during install for a pwd right ?
[15:44] <Ximal> i could just install and or compile and install
[15:44] <HuxFlux> server irc.fumbbl.com
[15:44] <sandaru1> Ximal: it comes with blank password by default.. then you have to set the password using mysqladmin command
[15:45] <Ximal> well.. i installed LAMP through synaptic ..
[15:45] <soundray> bullgard4: it could be that your network driver is not suspend-safe. You can add it to the MODULES= line in /etc/default/acpi-support to automatically unload it before suspending.
[15:45] <PirateHead> Ubuntu keeps reporting a fake CD in my drive and trying to read from it, which results in constant error messages and garbage being sent to dmesg. Can anybody help me figure out how to stop it? Pastebin of dmesg | tail : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46581/
[15:45] <LiMaO> Ximal: when installing mysql from synaptic it'll ask you for a new root password
[15:45] <Ellias> kazol: try specifcying the filesystem at the beginning of the smbmount command
[15:45] <psnel> Innatech: unpredictable like 'it may not work' or 'hosts on ADSL net might do ARP requests and be assigned IPs on my LAN'? is it mainly a security risk?
[15:45] <Ximal> hmm
[15:45] <LiMaO> PirateHead: eject that false cd
[15:45] <Ximal> i bet i was chatting and typed in a password not realizing it..
[15:45] <Ximal> bah..
[15:46] <PirateHead> LiMaO: That gives me a "Cannot reject CD: device is not ready" sort of error.
[15:46] <LiMaO> PirateHead: type 'sudo eject /dev/your-cdrom-drive'
[15:46] <bullgard4> soundray: 8139too is not suspend-safe? But it was in Feisty. Hwsat?
[15:46] <chesty> psnel: basically, if dhcp fails to get an address, a <IP_ADDRESS> address can be assigned. It's not meant to be routed, you can safely remove it from shorewall
[15:46] <Ximal> is there a way to check to see if there's a password set ? like in the htaccess files for apache.. where you can open the conf file and see the encrypted password ?
[15:46] <soundray> bullgard4: actually, come to think of it, it's probably not your network driver, but it could be some other module. Examine dmesg output and /var/log/syslog for more hints on what goes on as you suspend.
[15:46] <LiMaO> PirateHead: try unmounting it first... 'sudo umount /dev/cdrom-device-here'
[15:47] <Innatech> psnel: from http://www.shorewall.net/three-interface.htm : Caution: Do NOT connect multiple interfaces to the same hub or switch except for testing. You can test using this kind of configuration if you specify the arp_filter option or the arp_ignore option in /etc/shorewall/interfaces for all interfaces connected... Using such a setup with a production firewall is strongly recommended against.
[15:47] <psnel> chesty: thanks. thats been irritating me - i just love talking to you people)
[15:47] <bullgard4> soundray: /var/log/syslog reports: "gnome-power-manager: (detlef) hibernate failed."
[15:47] <PirateHead> LiMaO: umount: /dev/cdrom: not mounted
[15:47] <LiMaO> PirateHead: no dude.. i meant umount /dev/hdc
[15:47] <LiMaO> hdc = your cdrom device
[15:47] <Ximal> i'm trying to connect via mysqladmin just to test it limao...
[15:48] <soundray> bullgard4: that looks like the consequence, but not the cause of the problem.
[15:48] <Ximal> and no luck what so ever..
[15:48] <notonekind> Hey I need to recover a bunch of files that turned into one index.dat file. can anyone help me?
[15:48] <PirateHead> LiMaO: hdc isn't mounted either.
[15:48] <Innatech> psnel: if your switch supports VLANs you can try and segregate the traffic that way. Or you can run as-is and hope for the best ;P
[15:48] <LiMaO> PirateHead: then you may 'sudo eject /dev/hdc'
[15:48] <Ximal> MySQL Error Nr. 1045 is the error number ?
[15:48] <PirateHead> LiMaO: I don't think it's a problem with the devices - I think it's somewhere.
[15:49] <PirateHead> LiMaO: sudo eject /dev/hdc doesn't give any error, but it doesn't stop the problem.
[15:49] <ping> moin @ all
[15:49] <Jack_Sparrow> PirateHead: what does fstab look like for your cdrom?
[15:49] <notonekind> Can anyone help me figure out how to extrack files that turned into a .dat file????
[15:49] <soundray> notonekind: turned into a .dat file?
[15:49] <gordonjcp> notonekind: probably not
[15:49] <kazol> Ellias: How?
[15:49] <notonekind> yes. no one has any idea?
[15:50] <PirateHead> Jack_Sparrow: I haven't touched it, so it's whatever Gutsy set up by default.
[15:50] <Jack_Sparrow> notonekind: You need to explain it more .. how did it happen, what prog did it.. Better questions make for better answers
[15:50] <soundray> notonekind: how did that happen?
[15:50] <gordonjcp> notonekind: no-one knows what a .dat file is
[15:50] <psnel> Innatech: I think it can, but I'm running on the default, all-in-one-VLAN
[15:50] <PirateHead>   /dev/hdc        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
[15:50] <gordonjcp> notonekind: maybe if you're a bit more specific someone could suggest something
[15:50] <Jack_Sparrow> PirateHead: You should at least look at it..
[15:50] <Innatech> psnel: well, you might want to look into that.
[15:50] <PirateHead> Jack_Sparrow: Need any more than that line I gave above?
[15:50] <Jack_Sparrow> nope
[15:50] <notonekind> I did a PC recovery in xp, and xp wasnt seeing some of my files, so i loaded Ubuntu, found them, and copied them to an accessible directory. Windows then wouldnt let me into the folder I copied, even though it could now see the folder. When I loaded Ubuntu again the files in that folder turned into one .dat file
[15:51] <psnel> Innatech: thanks for your help, I'll go have a read now, and play around with the VLAN. You can help some other expert now :-)
[15:51] <Innatech> psnel: good luck :)
[15:51] <Ximal> hmm
[15:51] <Ximal> you know what I LIKE ..
[15:51] <Jack_Sparrow> notonekind: what did you use to copy them?
[15:51] <aguitel> anyone helpme to recover my grub?
[15:51] <psnel> Innatech: chow
[15:51] <EtteSB> anyone ever heard of a package called "purple"? i did a apt-cache search on it and got nothing. the problem is i got something looking for it to install
[15:52] <Ximal> after going through the headache of this.. i looked in synaptic.. and it has an installation program for phpbb !
[15:52] <Ximal> grrrr
[15:52] <PirateHead> notonekind: It sounds like Windows might be having some big problems - in fact, I would suspect a virus. Have you tried booting Windows in safe mode?
[15:52] <_virus_> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[15:52] <notonekind> I just cut and paste it to a different folder with ubuntu.
[15:52] <_virus_> ops
[15:52] <kazol> Ellias: ?
[15:52] <_virus_> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and explicitly choosing Emulate3Buttons 'no' still leaves it on it seems :(
[15:52] <Kheops> salut
[15:52] <notonekind> No, its a known glitch in the system that this happens with System restore. But I took a different route for fixing it because I didnt know it was a known problem. so its not a virus.
[15:52] <sandaru1> EtteSB: libpurple?
[15:52] <Kheops> hello
[15:53] <soundray> notonekind: can you not just do the same again? Copy the unreadable-for-XP files with Ubuntu?
[15:53] <EtteSB> sandaru1: could be ill try that
[15:53]  * Ximal sends all the files in localhost/forum to /dev/null ;)
[15:53] <PirateHead> notonekind: Is there a problem with Ubuntu, or is just Windows at this point?
[15:53] <Jack_Sparrow> notonekind: a glitch in what system.. and WHAT program in Ubuntu did you use to copy those files..
[15:53] <_virus_> In the old days emulate3buttons would turn itself off once you  press middle button once, that however doesnt work either
[15:54] <PirateHead> Jack_Sparrow: If he says he "just copied them", I think it's fairly safe to assume he used Nautilus - is that accurate, notonekind?
[15:54] <notonekind> Well what happened was they were in a folder that windows could not see AT ALL. but it was taking up space. Ubuntu was able to see the folder, so I cut it and paste it in my documents. Then I couldnt open that folder even though it could see it.  I dont know what program I used, I just went "Places, C/, Documents and Settings, USERDATA and everything was in there.
[15:55] <notonekind> When I loaded Ubuntu after windows still couldnt open the file ,everything in that folder was a huge index.dat file, instead of my files like they had been. So my problem is, Using Ubuntu, I need to get those files back to their original state.
[15:55] <soundray> notonekind: from there, did you copy the data to a different location on the same disk?
[15:55] <notonekind> yes I did
[15:55] <Jack_Sparrow> PirateHead: after helping in here for ages, I can never assume anything
[15:56] <PirateHead> Jack_Sparrow: fair enough. Any new ideas about my ghost CD, by the way?
[15:56] <soundray> notonekind: I think you should try copying the inaccessible data to a different filesystem, like a USB stick.
[15:56] <notonekind> yeah..but its 90 GB.
[15:56] <soundray> notonekind: it's probably safe to say that you can't trust your Windows partition to hold data any more.
[15:56] <notonekind> well 66.7 compressed.
[15:56] <Jack_Sparrow> PirateHead: Still grinding away on that, maybe after I finish my first cup of coffee
[15:56] <ricksta1080> what are some recommended prohrams to download ?
[15:56] <ricksta1080> **programs
[15:56] <soundray> notonekind: about 15 DVDs :)
[15:57] <PirateHead> ricksta1080: I like Inkscape for drawing things and FreeCol is a pretty fun game.
[15:57] <Jack_Sparrow> ricksta1080: k3b for burning cd's  but you need to be more specific about your needs
[15:57] <notonekind> So I need to put that index file on a seperate media for it to work again?
[15:58] <ricksta1080> well, i have programs for just some necessary things like... disc image burning,,, etc
[15:58] <soundray> notonekind: no, forget the index file. Get at the source files with Ubuntu again.
[15:58] <Jack_Sparrow> notonekind: What can Ubuntu..nautilus see of the files on your windows drive before you moved them with windows
[15:58] <notonekind> it say all my files in their state, videos, mp3s, picture, etc.
[15:58] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray: agreed
[15:58] <KonjikiNoyami> Hi, I've just upgraded to Ubuntu 7.10, I'm trying to install the restricted formats by using the command "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras", now some messages about Java T&C appear in the terminal window for a while and have not disappeared. Does it freeze or is it still updating and I just need to be patient? Thanks
[15:59] <rafal> the wikipedia's method of installing css wtf
[15:59] <Jack_Sparrow> notonekind: so try to just copy one or two to your ubuntu drive
[15:59] <robdeman> hi all.. I just followed this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH ... but after a reboot my VNCServer is no longer running.. any help?
[15:59] <rafal> sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh  gives file not found
[15:59] <notonekind> The thing is, Im not using a ubuntu DRIVE...I did this all from the live cd.
[15:59] <soundray> notonekind: have you got 90GB free on your Ubuntu partition(s)?
[15:59] <soundray> notonekind: ah
[15:59] <astro76> KonjikiNoyami, you need to click ok... tab to the ok button, and press elect or enter to click it
[16:00] <notonekind> I dont have 90 gb free, but I can get it, and then set up a partition probably
[16:00] <notonekind> should I do that? then copy this stuff over to my Ubuntu partition?
[16:00] <sandaru1> KonjikiNoyami: what is the last line of the message?
[16:00] <Jack_Sparrow> notonekind: borrow a usb stick.. easier and less likely to lose data.. or add a second drive
[16:00] <notonekind> right now everything is in ONE huge file though.
[16:00] <Jack_Sparrow> notonekind: no need to install ubuntu on it.. it will just be for data
[16:00] <soundray> notonekind: if you value that data at all, I would turn the computer off now, find a separate hard disk with 90GB free, and copy everything over to that one using the live CD.
[16:00] <notonekind> nothings going to happen to that data, I gaurantee it
[16:01] <Jack_Sparrow> notonekind: delete the 90gig file..  work with the originals
[16:01] <rafal> sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh  gives file not found    help!
[16:01] <notonekind> I cant get the originals anymore..they turned into that file.
[16:01] <KonjikiNoyami> astro76, sandaru1 : it looks like this http://i4.tinypic.com/7xvs1h4.png
[16:01] <danbhfive> rafal: what are you trying to do?
[16:01] <rafal> danbhfive: install devcss
[16:01] <rafal> like in https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html#dvdplayback
[16:01] <flake> what package is the bottom app bar in the pic from?  http://linuxappfinder.com/screenshot_viewer/all/1875_avast_update
[16:01] <astro76> KonjikiNoyami, as I said
[16:01] <soundray> notonekind: that's not what you said earlier...
[16:01] <astro76> KonjikiNoyami, you need to click ok... tab to the ok button, and press elect or enter to click it
[16:01] <robdeman> anybody here that knows how to get TightVNC to start after a reboot?
[16:02] <notonekind> yeah, I coped the files and they turned into ONE index.dat file
[16:02] <Rockj> Q: Is there any differences on performance on running 32bit ubuntu or 64bit ubuntu?
[16:02] <rafal> danbhfive: oh ok, I see that wiki is broken
[16:02] <danbhfive> man, firefox crashes on me SO much nowadays
[16:02] <notonekind> I have to go for a little bit, something came up, but I will be back in a little bit
[16:02] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray: ugh
[16:02] <Rockj> Q: If running 64bit ubuntu, does flash plugin and so on run under ndiswrapper sort of?
[16:02] <stefg> !boot | robdeman
[16:02] <ubotu> robdeman: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[16:02] <KonjikiNoyami> astro76, it works, thanks
[16:02] <gaara> hi very one
[16:02] <notonekind> if you guys can discuss it and try to come up with anything, Ill be back in maybe 20 minutes
[16:02] <danbhfive> !codecs > rafal does any of this help?
[16:02] <rafal> danbhfive: I'm reading
[16:02] <soundray> notonekind: forget that.
[16:02] <rafal> btw theres a bug in wiki, can one correct it?
[16:03] <rbs-tito> rafal: This is more in date https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs
[16:03] <stefg> !flash64 | Rockj
[16:03] <ubotu> Rockj: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[16:03] <PriceChild> rafal, its a wiki, anyone can edit it.
[16:03] <soundray> notonekind: plenty of people here for me to support who don't run off to do something else.
[16:03] <Ximal> wha wok
[16:03] <stefg> Rockj: but you'll find it easier to just use the 32-bit version altogether
[16:03] <Ximal> when i i tried to install phpbb using synaptics manager ... it would not install without the mysql password..
[16:04] <Jack_Sparrow> notonekind: Your problem has nothing to do with Ubuntu..
[16:04] <Ximal> when i put nothing in the password field.. it said unable to complete installation... not the right password
[16:04] <Ximal> should i be reinstalling lamp itself ? or just mysql ?
[16:04] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: good point
[16:04] <rbs-tito> Ximal: PhpBB needs to make a MySql database, why don't you just change the mySql password?
[16:04] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray: Morning to you.. back when I finish my coffee
[16:05] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: enjoy
[16:05] <Ximal> rbs-tito : mysql won't let me.. heh..
[16:05] <Ximal> it hasn't taken anything i've thrown at it... and won't allow me to modify the password which shouldn't even exist..
[16:05] <rbs-tito> Ximal: You might have to completely remove mySql in synaptic then reinstall it
[16:05] <rafal> libdvdnav: DVD disk reports itself with Region mask 0x00fd0000. Regions: 2
[16:05] <rafal> [00000288] main playlist: nothing to play
[16:05] <rafal> wtf
[16:05] <Ximal> is there a command to reinstall mysql ?
[16:05] <Rockj> stefg, thanks. But another thing Ive noticed is ...my computers slows down after some time - thought it could be compiz-fusion but in their channel they told me there's been naughty memory leaks since 100.14.19 of the nvidia drivers. Do nvidia have a fast release plan so I can know when there's comming a fix or something?
[16:05] <rbs-tito> Ximal: Use Synaptic
[16:05] <Ximal> besides purge commands ?
[16:05] <Ximal> eww... ok
[16:06] <rafal> libdvdcss not found. You're not able to play encrypted (most commercial) DVD's
[16:06] <Jack_Sparrow> rafal: please dont use that shorthand.. not appreciated in here
[16:06] <rbs-tito> Ximal: Purge would work too
[16:06] <Cherubael> Any way I can see the output grub is passing when I boot to a non-linux os?
[16:06] <danbhfive> rafal: did you look at medibuntu?
[16:06] <xtknight> Cherubael, look in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[16:06] <danbhfive> !codecs > danbhfive
[16:06] <Jack_Sparrow> !dvd
[16:06] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[16:06] <rafal> this is not very comfortable...
[16:06] <xtknight> Cherubael, or press E on the GRUB entry at startup to (E)dit the entry, and B to (B)oot it.
[16:06] <rbs-tito> I wish someone would make a GTK interface for K9copy
[16:07] <Ximal> is there a way in snyaptics to only show marked packages ?
[16:07] <rafal> a nice buttno "make the magic to allow me playing DVDs"  with [x] yes, I am not RIAA bi** and/or I dont live in a country that is, so install decss  would be nice, wouldnt it?
[16:07] <danbhfive> heh, i think there is a chow marked packages button
[16:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Ximal: you can get a list with this..
[16:07] <Jack_Sparrow> !clone
[16:07] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate
[16:07] <soundray> rafal: closed, proprietary formats like DVD make things uncomfortable.
[16:07] <rbs-tito> rafal: You ant libdvdcss2, not decss
[16:07] <xtknight> Ximal, create a filter
[16:07] <astro76> rafal, sure but there are legal issues, adding medibuntu is easy, so please try before complaining, if you need more help ask
[16:07] <rafal> soundray: and how is one going to change it
[16:07] <stefg> Rockj: i don't know about nvidias release plans, but i'm using a 32bit with that driver just fine. In general the minor performance gain with using 64 bit doesn't outweigh the additional trouble of using it, so most people choose to run 32bit even on 64bit hardware
[16:08] <rbs-tito> rafal: That is purely politics. Write to your representative, refuse to byu DVDs
[16:08] <Jack_Sparrow> rafal: by reading the link NAMED DVD that we just showed you
[16:08] <kazol> How do I force quit the force quit app?
[16:08] <rbs-tito> kazol: Use kill or killall
[16:08] <nownot> hello im trying to get a vpn going and want to share one of my external hd's on the network. but im having problems with the samba part. any help me out/
[16:08] <soundray> kazol: hit ESC
[16:08] <kazol> rbs-tito: It's very ironic.
[16:08] <kazol> soundray: It's frozen completely.
[16:09]  * kazol can read.
[16:09] <rbs-tito> kazol: Indeed it is. Let's just hope kill doesn't freeze on you
[16:09] <bakarat> does anyone know a company that sells ubuntu laptops in europe? (more specifically belgium)
[16:09] <rbs-tito> kazol: Use top to find the PID, then use sudo kill PID
[16:09] <stefg> !samba | nownot
[16:09] <ubotu> nownot: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[16:09] <rbs-tito> bakarat: Do Dell?
[16:09] <Ximal> done ;)
[16:09] <robdeman> BUM i snot able to make TightVNCServer boot ...
[16:09] <bakarat> rbs-tito: hard to come by in europe-belgium it seems :s
[16:09] <soundray> bakarat: you can probably get Dell UK to send you one.
[16:09] <robdeman> there must be naother way to have TightVNCServer start after a reboot
[16:09] <kazol> rbs-tito: What string should I grep from top?
[16:09] <rbs-tito> bakarat: If you have a friend in France or Germany Dell are the way to go. I got my dell Ubuntu laptop in the UK
[16:10] <rbs-tito> kazol: Not sure, sorry
[16:10] <bakarat> are they the only distributor of ubuntu based laptops? :S
[16:10] <kazol> I've been finding that Windows Vista is as stable as Ubuntu from my experience.
[16:10] <Cherubael> xtknight: Yeah, I've tried that, but I want to see what occurs after grub quits and Windows begins to boot; me issue is grub finishing properly (ubuntu boots fine) but windows failing. I get no errors, though
[16:10] <rbs-tito> bakarat: Sort of, they are the best. Others seem to be dodgy and very small time companies
[16:10] <stefg> robdeman: you need to edit /etc/init.d/rc.local
[16:10] <smooker> hi ppls, i cant get the Animation effects of Compiz Fusion :(
[16:11] <smooker> they dont work and i dont know the combination
[16:11] <smooker> of keys
[16:11] <bakarat> rbs-tito: ok
[16:11] <kazol> Ellias: ?
[16:11] <rbs-tito> bakarat: You could always buy a Windows laptop from Dell and try to get a refund.. The dimension 6400 with Windows is the exact same ahrdware as the version with Ubuntu
[16:11] <soundray> kazol: why don't you tell someone who's interested?
[16:11] <_virus_> anyway problem solved *blush* X is using xorg.conf.failsafe behind my back, so i turned Emulate3Buttons off there
[16:11] <rbs-tito> bakarat: It will be a tough game to get a refund though. Probably a few hours on the phone
[16:11] <kazol> soundray: I'm just saying.
[16:11] <soundray> _virus_: oh, that could have one thinking
[16:11] <bakarat> rbs-tito: hmm
[16:12] <soundray> kazol: it's offtopic
[16:12] <rbs-tito> bakarat: You will need to take photos of you disagreeing to the EULA and stuff
[16:12] <bakarat> rbs-tito: nasty
[16:13] <kazol> soundray: There are plenty of more off-topic conversations which occur here.
[16:13] <hyorinmaru> quit
[16:13] <thor> stefg: booting vncserver is an interesting question. If you edit rc.local, how to you get it to run vncserver as a specific user?
[16:13] <soundray> kazol: you can complain in #ubuntu-ops
[16:13] <soulrider> does anyone here kno whow to add the | symbol in OpenOffice Math ?
[16:13] <mohd> Is there a way to get sound file previews in 7.10
[16:13] <rbs-tito> bakarat: Yeah, you can do that if you want to keep a principle. but if you just want a working laptop just wipe Windows off it straight away, spit on the disc and stuff ;)
[16:13] <sandaru1> thor: su -u user Xvnc ?
[16:14] <stefg> thor: setuid? call a second script?
[16:14] <bakarat> rbs-tito: it's the extra cost for windows... :P
[16:14] <bakarat> wasted money
[16:14] <danbhfive> thor: you could try System > Preferences > Sessions     im just guessing there
[16:14] <rbs-tito> bakarat: It's like £20 from Dell
[16:14] <Rockj> stefg, thanks btw :)  Ill see if I can just fix those tiny bugs in 64bit. Just finally ported myself over to linux on desktop on main computer. been using on laptop for ages (tho no fancy 3d stuff because of ati)
[16:15] <rbs-tito> bakarat: Ubuntu is available in the UK, USA, Germany and France preinstalled on Dells. You could get a friend there or something!
[16:15] <thor> I always started vncserver via an ssh login when I needed it since I use ssh tunneling. But the question got me thinking....never learned how to run something at boot as a user.
[16:16] <soundray> thor: I think the way to start a vncserver at boot is via gdm. Haven't done it, though
[16:16] <notonekind> Hey sorry about all that. my sister cut her hand on a broken picture
[16:17] <thor> soundray  gdm will handle XDCMP but I don't think it will start vncserver
[16:17] <soundray> thor: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC
[16:18] <bakarat> rbs-tito: you mean the inspiron 6400?
[16:18] <soundray> thor: gdm will start any kind of X server
[16:18] <rbs-tito> bakarat: Yeah, I'm talking from one now
[16:19] <bakarat> rbs-tito: no problems whatsoever with ubuntu? (buddy of mine has a dell and has problems with his wireless)
[16:19] <rbs-tito> bakarat: It comes with an Intel wireless chip. It works perfectly out of the box, WPA and everything
[16:19] <bakarat> rbs-tito: nice :)
[16:19] <sandaru1> thor: just an idea.. if you are connecting over a LAN, x11-forwarding is a superb choice
[16:20] <Ein_> hi
[16:20] <notonekind> Alright, does anyone know anything .dat files, or doing a restore using Ubuntu?
[16:20] <corruptionoflulz> anyone know of anything better than sound juicer?
[16:20] <soundray> notonekind: your problem is a Windows one. Ask in an appropriate channel.
[16:20] <soundray> corruptionoflulz: abcde
[16:20] <thor> sandaru1 actually, you can use X forwarding via ssh tunnel even from the world. But sometimes you need the full desktop. I do use both but always through a tunnel, never thought about having it auto start at boot
[16:21] <notonekind> I was here for four hours last night; we determined it is'nt a windows problem.
[16:21] <thor> soundray reading that url now...thanks
[16:21] <sandaru1> thor: i'm talking about the bandwidth :)
[16:21] <rafal> vlc crashes on playing dvds (7.10 amd64)
[16:21] <bakarat> rbs-tito: he's a bit put off by the intel 3D card in it :s
[16:21] <corruptionoflulz> soundray: thanks, installing now.
[16:21] <Ximal> k.. I'm oing to just reformat X-|  ... this is a debilitating problem.. not being able to even login to my own mysql database to alter it :(
[16:21] <bakarat> rbs-tito: you know of another model that is 100% compatible?
[16:22] <Ximal> riot .. what was that command earlier ?
[16:22] <soundray> notonekind: Windows clumped your files together into a single one. How is that not a Windows problem?
[16:22] <rbs-tito> bakarat: Why? He isn't going too be gaming is he? Intel cards are supported well in Linux
[16:22] <Ximal> the mysqladmin you showed me ?
[16:22] <thor> sandaru1  agreed...X forwarding is much more efficient than vnc and is usually what I prefer, but sometimes I want to view a remote desktop
[16:22] <bakarat> rbs-tito: he wants to be able to play guildwars on it (i think)
[16:22] <rbs-tito> bakarat: Erm, no sorry. There are some colourful ones in the USA that have Nvidia
[16:22] <notonekind> I don't know, but its not anything that can be solved with windows is my point.
[16:22] <kimguru87> hi guys i've installed 7.10 on intel 3.0 sata 80 gb hd. it worked fine for 2 days.now i m getting error 17 when grub loading.and i cant do nothing excep turn off.can anyone have any idea
[16:22] <rbs-tito> check the model and s ee if they do it i n  Belgium
[16:22] <rbs-tito> bakarat: www.dell.com/ubuntu
[16:23] <sandaru1> thor: actually i mean vice-versa.. VNC is much more efficient in bandwidth.. that's why there are such things called NX clients
[16:23] <soundray> thor: here's another thought: set gdm to autologin and configure vino. Then you can start a vnc client via ssh X forwarding...
[16:23] <Ximal> can anyone please please .. errr nm.. * shoots pc in processor unit ! *
[16:24] <sandaru1> thor: in my experience x11 is not quite suitable if you are not using a LAN.. dunno about your internet connection speeds though ;)
[16:25] <thor> sandaru1 I thought x forwarding was better for bandwidth. I have been working with this stuff with a friend in Dublin Ireland (I am in Pond Inlet, Nunavut...the high arctic). we found that vnc was kinda slow...but much faster in an ssh tunnel. we found the same for X forwarding, that it runs faster through a tunnel.
[16:25] <void^> x11 forwarding is okay-ish over something like a dsl line when using ssh with compression
[16:25] <bakarat> anyone know of a ubuntu-compatible laptop with a decent nvidia card in it?
[16:26] <soulrider> if anyone knows how to do this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3878146#post3878146 please post :)
[16:26] <thor> void^ right...things sped up noticeably once I turned on compression in tightvnc
[16:26] <Ximal> Is it possible the issue with mysql server not allowing me to login is because it bases itself off of the root password of user root in ubuntu which is disabled until unlocked ?
[16:26] <Ximal> i mean... is it possible ? that it's a bug ?
[16:26] <rafal> even after installing stuff from medibuntu etc, still no program can play DVD, wtf
[16:27] <kimguru87> hi guys i've installed 7.10 on intel 3.0 sata 80 gb hd. it worked fine for 2 days.now i m getting error 17 when grub is loading.and i cant do anything excep turn off.anyone have any idea
[16:27] <f0rke1> Hello, anyone know if GNU R version 2.6.1 is available for Gutsy 7.10, synaptics reports 2.5.1 only.
[16:27] <PriceChild> kimguru87, what did you do before it broke?
[16:27] <Ximal> rafal ... installed lib-dvd-css2 ?
[16:27] <f0rke1> or point me to a doc on how to do a manual installation
[16:28] <sandaru1> thor: if you look at the number of X server calls a usual menu click makes, you'll see why X11 is not so efficient.. and mouse moves, etc. in VNC, mouse pointer is handled locally.. and RFB protocol is much improved
[16:28] <PriceChild> kimguru87, i'd suggest your grub's menu.lst is broken
[16:28] <PriceChild> kimguru87, pointing to the wrong partition.
[16:28] <marco_> hello
[16:28] <PriceChild> kimguru87, when grub appears, you can press "e" to edit the line to point it to the correct partition.
[16:28] <bkingx> Hi all, any thoughts as to why a server would be running fine with static IP and then all of a sudden grap an ip from DHCP?  Restarting networking sets it back to the static ip.
[16:29] <soundray> soulrider: what's the name of that symbol?
[16:29] <kimguru87> no i cant do it
[16:29] <sidelil> excuse me, the sintax for vncviewer is vncviewer <IP_ADDRESS> or something like this. But if I would connect to a pc behind a router, what shold I do? How can i specify the internet ip address and the lan ip address? Thank you
[16:29] <kimguru87> it just hangs
[16:29] <marco_> how do i connect to screens with linux ubuntu ? i would like to have to sreens working at the same time
[16:29] <marco_> two*
[16:29] <soundray> !dualhead | marco_
[16:29] <ubotu> marco_: Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[16:29] <marco_> how do i connect two screens with linux ubuntu ? i would like to have two sreens working at the same time
[16:29] <corruptionoflulz> sidelil: i was wondering this too, i can get to one computer behind a router, but i don't know how to specify which i want to connect to.
[16:30] <chesty> kimguru87: google for grub error 17, the first hit is from ubuntuforum
[16:30] <marco_> thanks
[16:30] <sandaru1> sidelil: you'll have to change the router settings.. or route the traffic through a server
[16:31] <kimguru87> ok just google it and find thred in ubuntu forum
[16:31] <kimguru87> talk 2 u later if it didnt solved
[16:31] <sidelil> sandaru1, how can i do it?
[16:32] <sidelil> sandaru1, my pc is routing all the traffic through the port 22 now. Is it right?
[16:32] <soulrider> soundray, no idea
[16:32] <lusepuster_> run Kopete in a Gnome-environment. but I have this minor annoyance that only a few of the Icons show up - any suggestions as to what to do to fix it?
[16:32] <sandaru1> sidelil: depends on the router. you can create a rule to forward traffic in 5910 to <IP_ADDRESS>:5910
[16:32] <soulrider> soulrider, but it looks like the pipe, |
[16:32] <soundray> soulrider: do you know how one would generate it in TeX?
[16:33] <soulrider> soundray, nope, but i saw in wikipedia they use the pipe symbol
[16:33] <soulrider> openoffice shows the pipe as an OR symbol
[16:34] <sandaru1> sidelil: what do you mean by all traffic is routing through port 22?
[16:34] <Ximal> someone wanna tell me what this means in terminal ?    mysql>
[16:34] <Ximal> I tried a password i tried before and it wouldn't let me in..
[16:35] <Ximal> which angel do I thank for going into my system and helping me ?
[16:35] <soundray> soulrider: OpenOffice.org supports MathML. If you could find a name for the symbol, it would probably be easy to look it up in MathML docs.

[16:36] <marco_> where can i download XFree86 ?
[16:36] <Ximal> I think I know what happened ..
[16:36] <fihi09> erisco: try umount -r
[16:36] <Ximal> an security flaw in ubuntu's lamp server
[16:37] <soundray> marco_: it's replaced by xorg in Ubuntu.
[16:37] <Ximal> is there... err nm
[16:37] <Ximal> bbl
[16:37] <Lunar_Lamp> erisco, try "lsof /device/name" and that will tell you what is using it.
[16:37] <tech_> when ur installing ubuntu and ur at the partition screen, and u set the layout
[16:37] <soundray> soulrider: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MathML
[16:37] <tech_> then it says creating partiton/file system ,
[16:37] <erisco> LOL, my other terminal had its cwd in it
[16:37] <tech_> then tries to read file from cdrom
[16:37] <tech_> question if at that point time, some1 takes the cd out
[16:38] <tech_> is the file system formatted/creatted or u gotta do it again
[16:38] <sandaru1> Ximal: did you try a purge? you may check whether purge removes data at /var/lib/mysql
[16:39] <tech_> anyone?
[16:40] <g00se> Running live disk here (2.6.22-14). 'Windows network' appears for browsing but not much sign of samba running or any exports. How do i export?
[16:40] <Oli``> Guys I can't seem to get sound through xine (ALSA) and Flash at the same time. If I have firefox loaded, xine craps out with errors. If I start with xine loaded (eg Amarok or a video player) there's no Flash audio. How can I fix this?
[16:41] <BlackDiamonds> Oli`` have you done anything to your audio settings ?
[16:41] <bullgard4> soundray: I repeated to persuade Gutsy to hibernate at a defined time. gnome-power-manager keeps saying that "hibernate failed". /var/log/syslog shows no other real error messages. I can see how nm_hal_device_removed () removed successively 3 devices and later restored them in opposite sequence. No real error message to be seen.
[16:41] <tech_> ok guess no one
[16:41] <tech_> lol
[16:41] <mixandgo> hello, I have removed ipv6 module from my linux box and now firefox won't resolve any address, any idea why ?
[16:41] <kesha> hi, can anyone tell me please which ports I have to open on firewall gateway to use msn webcam?
[16:42] <Oli``> BlackDiamonds: quite possibly. I've been kicking things backwards and forwards for a couple of days trying to fix other sound issues. I wish I could go back to defaults
[16:43] <stefg> g00se: there is no samba *server* installed on the live system, only smb browsing as provided by nautilus
[16:43] <napsy_> hello. I have a problem with a package. How can I force the package installation with dpkg?
[16:44] <g00se> stefg: Thanks. What's quickest way to export then to another Linux box
[16:44] <ivanowitch> Hi. My power management is behaving rather funny... When i plug in the power, it starts running on AC, but after a few minutes it suddenly changes to discharging the battery, and both the battery and the power led starts flashing. I am sure it has somehthing to do with acpi, but sudo dpkg-reconfigure acpid doesn't solve the problem :( Anyone got a suggestion to what might help?
[16:44] <ShiftyPowers> anyone know how to make a samba client be able to follow symlinks on a samba share?
[16:44] <stefg> g00se: install openssh-server in the live system and use ssh
[16:45] <stefg> !info sshfs | g00se
[16:45] <ubotu> g00se: sshfs: filesystem client based on SSH File Transfer Protocol. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.7-2.1 (gutsy), package size 34 kB, installed size 120 kB
[16:45] <stefg> gah
[16:45] <g00se> ubotu: That mean i can actually export/mount rather than ssh?
[16:46] <bazhang> ubotu is a bot you know "}
[16:46] <g00se> Doh!
[16:46] <Oli``> lies! ubotu is people!
[16:46] <g00se> (I'm normally on #debian)
[16:47] <stefg> g00se: ssh-server provides a sftp server as well, so you van use nautilus' 'connect to server' on the client system
[16:47] <bullgard4> ivanowitch: Report error messages at that time in /var/log/syslog.
[16:47] <kaleh> has anybody read the latest issue (#7) of Full-Circle?
[16:47] <isthatall> 2 issues with gutsy after upgrade: a)system will not cleanly reboot, goes to black screen with blinking cursor, alt-sysreq-b required every time. b)keys seem to get "stuck" sometimes, for instance flipping the cube in compiz sometimes creates a whirl of cube spinning madness...any ideas here?
[16:48] <g00se> stefg: Actually the client is Debian, but i'm hoping that sshfs allows transparent networking using ssh, including normal mounting and exporting. Am i right?
[16:48] <soundray> bullgard4, ivanowitch: if you suspect an incompatibility between your laptop and Linux ACPI, it may help to recompile your ACPI DSDT with Intel's compiler iasl.
[16:49] <bullgard4> soundray: I am reluctant as Feisty worked all right with the same DSDT.
[16:49] <stefg> g00se: doesn't matter... if you run konqueror or nautilus you'll be able to connect to the box running the live-system (using a pseudo-maount over ssh)
[16:50] <g00se> stefg: It would be Thunar in my case, but i could try it
[16:50] <soundray> bullgard4: I'm sticking to feisty on my work laptop, not least because of the various troubles you reported...
[16:51] <stefg> g00se: you need sshfs on the debian box with thunar... thunar has no builtin network browsing, so you need to do it on the fs level
[16:51] <bullgard4> soundray: Another German guy who had the same Gutsy error reported that he got rid of it by installing a swap partition. But I do have a swap partition.
[16:51] <soundray> bullgard4: is downgrading an option for you? You'd have to backup your data and reinstall...
[16:51] <soundray> bullgard4: how big is your swap?
[16:52] <g00se> stefg: Thought that could be the case. No problem - i work at the command line mostly anyway
[16:52] <bullgard4> soundray: soundray My swap is about 1.1 gig
[16:52] <soundray> bullgard4: and your RAM is 1GB?
[16:52] <tapas> i wonder: where are the default UUIDs saved that update-grub uses?
[16:52] <ivanowitch> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46584/ is my guess of what the problem is... It seems that acpi clashes with something...
[16:53] <soundray> tapas: can you rephrase that?
[16:53] <bullgard4> soundray: Yes, downgrading is an option. But I would wait with that and try some other measures before.
[16:53] <soundray> ivanowitch: consider booting with the 'pci=noacpi' option
[16:53] <bullgard4> soundray: My RAM is 0.512 gig
[16:54] <soundray> bullgard4: is your swap in use? 'free' to check
[16:54] <g00se> stefg: is there a quick way on the live disk to start sshd?
[16:54] <ivanowitch> ok... err... how do i do that?
[16:55] <tapas> soundray: sure, when i run update-grub a new menu.lst is written
[16:55] <bullgard4> soundray: Yes, it in use. It was in use in Feisty also. 'free' confirms that.
[16:55] <tapas> soundray: each entry for a kernel contains a root filesystem
[16:55] <tapas> soundray: in my case it's specified by UUID
[16:55] <tapas> soundray: i moved the root fs to a new hd, thus the labels don't match anymore
[16:55] <stefg> g00se: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[16:55] <tapas> i can hand edit menu.lst, but i'd rather get it right so it works allright at the next kernel uipdaete, too
[16:56] <soundray> tapas: try blkid
[16:56] <Ximal> what is the syntax to delete a folder ?
[16:56] <Ximal> in terminal ?
[16:56] <robdeman> where can I find failed / error / messages for rc.local ?
[16:56] <tapas> soundray: i know he UUID of my new hd
[16:56] <tapas> that's no problem
[16:56] <tapas> i wonder how to make that default on consequent update-grub runs
[16:56] <xtknight> Ximal, rm -rf /the/folder/in/question
[16:56] <soundray> !bootoptions | ivanowitch
[16:56] <ubotu> ivanowitch: For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions
[16:56] <bulmer> Ximal rm -rf /pathto/dirtoremove
[16:56] <Ximal> ty guys !
[16:57] <g00se> stefg:  Thanks. Think i'll go back to Knoppix - it allows startssh ;-)
[16:57] <g00se> (Or is it sshstart?)
[16:57] <|lidia|> how can i mount on fstab a new partitions an set it`s mount point to home
[16:57] <|lidia|> gparted wont let me set the mount point to home
[16:58] <stefg> tapas: inspect the comments in /boot/grub/menu.lst ... there are 'magical comments'  , the one you are looking for starts with '#kopt'
[16:58] <danbhfive> gparted cant do that for you
[16:58] <tapas> stefg: heh ok :)
[16:58] <|lidia|> no
[16:58] <danbhfive> i dont think it handles mount points
[16:58] <bulmer> |lidia|-> mount point is just a directory..so manually moun it like  mount /dev/hdaX /newhome
[16:58] <BobSapp> Is nvidia 3d accel working out of the box now for 7.10 ?
[16:58] <sidelil> sandaru1, i mean that under "port forwarding" in my router's preferences i said to direct to port 22 everything from that pc
[16:58] <jrib> |lidia|: move current /home to /home.backup first.  Then create an empty /home.  Update your fstab and reboot
[16:59] <Sharpie> is there a good program to manage the gnome panels? (like, move launchers around etc.)
[16:59] <soundray> tapas: you need to modify the # kopt=... line rather than the kernel lines themselves
[16:59] <danbhfive> |lidia| : I created a webpage explaining how to move your home
[16:59] <jrib> |lidia|: that's assuming you do not want to keep the files in your current /home
[16:59] <|lidia|> i had a windows partitions i formated it with gparted made it reiserfs and now i want to use it as a home partition
[16:59] <g00se> stefg: Thanks for all that
[16:59] <soundray> tapas: you may find "man update-grub" interesting
[16:59] <|lidia|> i want to be mounted on boot
[16:59] <Xplicit> im having a wierd problem with a firefox beta its not frozen up (100% usage) but its just stoped doing anything, is there a signal i can send it to kick it
[16:59] <jrib> |lidia|: fstab does that
[17:00] <tapas> soundray: i got it already.. thanks
[17:00] <bulmer> jrib-> mounting on top of an existing directory does not destroy or erase the existing one eh?
[17:00] <tapas> yeah i was looking for a FILES section in the update-grubmanpage
[17:00] <tapas> there was none ;)
[17:00] <|lidia|> i dont want to do mount /dev/sda1 /home every time i boot up
[17:00] <jrib> bulmer: hm?
[17:00] <tapas> i also wonder: why is my ide hd in the notebook called sda?
[17:00] <jrib> |lidia|: that is why you put it in your fstab
[17:00] <soulrider> soundray, i made it, just add a divides symbol and then rsup and rdub and thats it
[17:00] <stefg> g00se: np.. Ubuntu Desktop CD's aren't that much optimized for serving files out, so using knoppix for the task might be the right decision
[17:00] <xtknight> tapas, libata in new kernel made all ide devices appear as scsi
[17:00] <tech_> hello guys
[17:00] <bulmer> jrib the need to move /home is not necessary noh? just to mount a partition on top of it..
[17:00] <soundray> soulrider: well done
[17:00] <tech_> got a question regarding ubuntu installation
[17:01] <danbhfive> !fstab > danbhfive
[17:01] <jrib> bulmer: well I'd avoid it
[17:01] <stefg> !install | tech
[17:01] <ubotu> tech: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate
[17:01] <tech_> what i need to know, when i start the setup, get to partition layout , and set the partition, then u know
[17:01] <dinop007> hi
[17:01] <mike3> bonjourno
[17:01] <tech_> it says something like creating file system/partitions
[17:01] <tech_> then it starts to read file from cd right
[17:01] <mixandgo> isn't firefox using the global dns ?
[17:01] <soundray> danbhfive: you can also do '/msg ubotu fstab'
[17:01] <stefg> tech
[17:01] <bulmer> jrib i agree...he'd much better to mount it in an unused directory
[17:02] <ankur> is there any fast web browser in ubuntu without firefox?
[17:02] <LjL> !browsers > ankur    (ankur, see the private message from Ubotu)
[17:02] <tech_> ankur opera
[17:02] <danbhfive> soundray : ok thanks
[17:02] <bulmer> ankur w3m
[17:02] <Bill> is there anyone who specializes in psubuntu
[17:02] <dinop007> where is the cookies of firefox saved in and where is my favorite?
[17:02] <mikebeecham> RatThing: are you there mate?
[17:02] <stefg> tech_: are you using automatic or manual partitioninig?
[17:02] <tech_> question if some 1 takes the cd out, during the cd reading proces, is partition already formmated
[17:02] <danbhfive> favorites = bookmarks
[17:02] <Condoulo> I have a question about Flash in Opera. How would I install it?
[17:02] <tech_> sir i used " erase whole /dev/hda
[17:02] <jrib> |lidia|: the easiest way to do this thing is in recovery mode.  But you aren't being very clear about what you want to happen to the files in your old /home
[17:02] <LjL> !flash > Condoulo    (Condoulo, see the private message from Ubotu)
[17:02] <bulmer> dinop007-> did you look around ~/.mozilla ?
[17:03] <soundray> dinop007: 'locate cookies.txt | grep $USER'
[17:03] <tech_> yes auto that means
[17:03] <isthatall> 2 issues with gutsy after upgrade: a)system will not cleanly reboot, goes to black screen with blinking cursor, alt-sysreq-b required every time. b)keys seem to get "stuck" sometimes, for instance flipping the cube in compiz sometimes creates a whirl of cube spinning madness...or hitting 'backspace' in opera goes back and back and back to the first page I started in, any ideas here?
[17:03] <soundray> dinop007: to transfer your bookmarks, open firefox and export them.
[17:03] <stefg> Condoulo: serach the opera forums, there's some howto's there
[17:03] <Neolink> hello
[17:03] <tech_> s anyone?

[17:04] <jrib> !wifi > ygorspain (read the private message from ubotu)
[17:04] <jrib> YgorSpain: check if the wiki does
[17:04] <stefg> tech_: so what is your problem ?

[17:04] <claudio_> cambié el xchat
[17:04] <tech_> do i need to partition again, or it formmated it already
[17:04] <Bill> i need better screen resolution on my ps3ubuntu
[17:05] <soundray> dinop007: to import them, you have to have exported them in the original browser first.
[17:05] <Jack_Sparrow> tech_: if all you want to do is partition, run live and gparted.. dont try to abort the install
[17:05] <tech_> jack ok will keep that in mind

[17:13] <bro_man> ok, thanks anyway...
[17:13] <poeloq> Anybody know how to tell gnome to groupe windows in it's taskbar (for example bittorrent)
[17:13] <mikebeecham> RatThing: you there mate
[17:13] <soundray> Ein_: please use gksudo with graphical programs
[17:13] <YgorSpain> [danbhfive]: yeah thats what i want..i think :P

[17:14] <mikebeecham> hey guys...can I get some advice about twinview...at the moment (within nVidia settings) I have twinview setup...when I maximise a window, it maximises to both windows...how can I set a window to only maximise to the monitor it is sitting in?
[17:14] <Ongaku> wow I had the oddest problem with rhythmbox and totem yesterday, an all of a sudden it works today lol
[17:15] <tim__> poeloq: not sure but you could just use a diffrent client like azureus or rtorrent
[17:15] <poeloq> tim__: I prefer it this way :P
[17:15] <Sharpie> is there a better menu editor than alacarte?
[17:15] <poeloq> jrib: I don't get preferences
[17:15] <Xima1> could anyone tell me what the folder I would use or link to in my www to have people view my phpbb2 i installed via synaptics might possibly be ?
[17:15] <YgorSpain> Commands like: user@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install build-essential / sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` / sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-`uname -r` /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build / i need to be online, right ?

[17:16] <danbhfive> ygorspain: yeah
[17:16] <jrib> YgorSpain: those packages are on the ubuntu cd
[17:16] <soundray> mikebeecham: have some patience. If someone knows the answer, they will reply. If not, retry in ten to fifteen minutes.
[17:16] <somedude> Xima1- It's /var/www
[17:16] <TraFFka> Hi!
[17:16] <Xima1> heh... ok
[17:16] <YgorSpain> So how can i get this specific files being offline..or using windows to download it ?
[17:17] <YgorSpain> [jrib]: yeah ? hmm i dont know..well.. thanks guys..im gonna try it.. :D
[17:17] <jrib> YgorSpain: you pop in the cd and it will add it as a repository
[17:17] <YgorSpain> got it... thx ! :P
[17:17] <Xima1> ok.. somedude .. that's not it m8
[17:17] <TraFFka> I'm GOD!
[17:17] <Xima1> hmm
[17:17] <Jack_Sparrow> TraFFka: Bye..
[17:18] <tim__> Xima1: did try reading the man file?
[17:18] <somedude> Xima1- /var/www is the root directory for your web server.
[17:18] <Xima1> no tim i didn't,,,
[17:18] <Xima1> hmm
[17:18] <Xima1> tanks .. ill look in it now
[17:18] <Xima1> good day to all ;)
[17:18] <MepT_Bblu> i am God too
[17:19] <zax> Ximal it should be usr/share/Phpbb something depending on the version installed (2 or 3) then make a symbolic link in /var/www to that directory
[17:19] <somedude> Can someone help me with a display problem after installing latest security update?
[17:19] <MepT_Bblu> FloodBot1: hey!
[17:19] <soundray> !anyone | somedude
[17:19] <ubotu> somedude: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[17:20] <tim__> somedude: fights with xorg.conf are normaly won by xorg not the user :)
[17:20] <somedude> Have a bunch of horizontal gray ghost bars across my display after applying the last update
[17:20] <wressle> Can I disable the desktop in metacity in any way?  I already got a STMusic and What.cd account.
[17:22] <linux4909> okay.
[17:22] <linux4909> sorry
[17:22] <freqk> Is there a similar IRC for waffles?
[17:22] <bmod> hi, does anyone know why my nvidia driver seems to disappear after a reboot?
[17:22] <linux4909> i came across it when i was searching ubuntu wallpapers on google
[17:22] <freqk> woops, wrong irc
[17:22] <freqk> sorry
[17:22] <linux4909> so my next question is what is the bar at the bottom called
[17:23]  * nsh ate the wrong irc once and had a terrible tummy ache
[17:23] <linux4909> like a taskbar or something with the apps in it
[17:23] <somedude> is this an Xorg problem?
[17:23] <linux4909> i want one of those
[17:23] <bro_man> To anyone familiar with Xchat... How do I turn off the * comments about "____ has joined" and " _____ has quit" ?
[17:23] <soundray> linux4909: it's called the Window List applet
[17:23] <mikebeecham> Hi...if anyone know a lot about twinview and metamode settings, then I would REALLY appreciate a conversation about now :(
[17:23] <linux4909> is that a repo in  ubunto or do i download it?
[17:23] <LjL> linux4909: it's a dock, there are a few, and some are broken too, but you can make something like that with a pretty standard gnome panel as well
[17:23] <soundray> mikebeecham: you asked a good question before. Now you've asked a poor one.
[17:24] <tim__> somedude: try looking for a backup of the xorg.conf or change the xorg.conf to play nice with the new drivers would be my guess
[17:24] <tonyyarusso> soundray: no, he means the accelerated dock thing
[17:24] <linux4909> so do i find it in System menu or do i download and install something in terminal?
[17:24] <ragnar__> hey ppl
[17:24] <mikebeecham> soundray...I'm stressing out here..I DONT need a smart comment from you...if you can help then I would appreciate you being quiet
[17:24] <ragnar__> hi all
[17:24] <ragnar__> i have problems
[17:24] <mikebeecham> cant** help
[17:24] <somedude> can I go back a version of xorg without hosing up other things?
[17:24] <ragnar__> no u will!
[17:24] <LjL> somedude: nope
[17:25] <bmod> did anyone ever have the problem where the nvidia driver seemed to vanish after a reboot?
[17:25] <ragnar__> can someone pls reset me irc passwrd?
[17:25] <tonyyarusso> ragnar__: #freenode for that
[17:25] <soundray> mikebeecham: I'm giving you good advice about how to make use of IRC, which is to ask your original question again.
[17:25] <ragnar__> 10x
[17:25] <somedude> can I change to a saved xorg.conf without hosing things up?
[17:25] <bmod> and what program tries to probe my graphics devices/monitors startup
[17:25] <LjL> somedude, NO
[17:25] <r00723r0> hi, i have a list of files in a read-only directory
[17:25] <r00723r0> i need to link to them
[17:25] <soundray> mikebeecham: trust me, I know which type of question attracts responses. The frustrated ones don't.
[17:25] <r00723r0> how would i do this?
[17:25] <LjL> somedude, err, xorg.conf - yes
[17:26] <ankur> i still dont change my refresh ret
[17:26] <LjL> somedude: assuming the saved xorg.conf is good to begin with
[17:26] <skyfalcon866> where can i get hardy
[17:26] <LjL> !hardy > skyfalcon866    (skyfalcon866, see the private message from Ubotu)
[17:26] <somedude> LjL, the last security update caused horizontal gray ghost bars on my display, any thoughts?
[17:26] <tim__> somedude: Ctrl+F1 gives you a cli so you can fix any errors in the xorg , so just play around a bit
 hey guys...can I get some advice about twinview...at the moment (within nVidia settings) I have twinview setup...when I maximise a window, it maximises to both windows...how can I set a window to only maximise to the monitor it is sitting in?
[17:26] <tonyyarusso> r00723r0: You shouldn't have to do anything different - a link only needs read privlidges anyway
[17:26] <soundray> much better ^^
[17:26] <LjL> somedude: never heard of yet. report a bug
[17:27] <mikebeecham> ok...I have an issue with Twinview (I think)...when I swtiched on my machine this morning all my graphics were corrupted.  After speaking to RatThing this morning, he helped me to get my drivers back.  However, I now have new problems...ANY changes I make within nvidia-settings will not stay, and I always have one monitor working when I restart X...my desktop goes back to 800 x 600
[17:27] <r00723r0> tonyyarusso, yes, but the folder is read-only as well
[17:27] <somedude> LjL, where do I go to report a bug?
[17:27] <LjL> !bugs > somedude    (somedude, see the private message from Ubotu)
[17:27] <r00723r0> so if i right click and select Make Links it won't do anything
[17:27] <mikebeecham> As well as that...when I maximse a window, it spans across two monitors, where it used to just maximise in the monitor it was sitting in...how can I change this?
[17:28] <somedude> Tim, LjL- Thanks for the help!!
[17:28] <tim__> good luck
[17:28] <tonyyarusso> r00723r0: err, I'm not even sure how to make links graphically, to be honest.  I've only done it with ln.
[17:28] <tim__> anyone know why there is not an automated rootkit killer on the ubuntu live cd?
[17:28] <linux4909_> hello
[17:28] <linux4909_> im back.
[17:28] <linux4909_> i lost  my connection
[17:28] <LjL> tim__, uh, there is no such thing as a (reliable, at least) "rootkit killer"
[17:28] <linux4909_> i was the person asking about the menu panel at the bottom of the screen
[17:28]  * mafsi is away: I'm not here now
[17:29] <linux4909_> ljl as helping me
[17:29] <breakerfall> this distro has, quite possibly, the worst installation I've ever seen. It simply stinks.
[17:29] <LjL> !away > mafsi    (mafsi, see the private message from Ubotu)
[17:29] <r00723r0> tonyyarusso, aye, how would i choose all folders in a directory (all those that don't end with for example *.txt) and link them to my desktop?
[17:29] <ankur> hellow i again say how i change my screen ret 65 to 85????
[17:29] <LjL> breakerfall, got a question, or simply want to moan?
[17:29] <linux4909_> did someone say ubuntu is the worst install ever?
[17:29] <breakerfall> simply want to moan...
[17:30] <linux4909_> how do i talk AT someone and make their name yellow?
[17:30] <LjL> breakerfall: then #ubuntu-offtopic please
[17:30] <bmod> where can i remove 'graphics autodetection' stuff that happens at startup
[17:30] <breakerfall> I've finally installed, but now it won't load a GUI
[17:30] <zax> in XChat to hide the join / parted messages right click on the channel name and deselect it
[17:30] <mikebeecham> would someone mind looking at this pastebin of my xorg.conf and tell me what I'm doing wrong?
[17:30] <mikebeecham> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46590/
[17:30] <tim__> cant it just check the crc of the files on the install with the correct version off the net?
[17:30] <breakerfall> it hangs on boot, I assume, when trying to start x
[17:30] <breakerfall> yet the live cd displayed fine.
[17:30] <tonyyarusso> r00723r0: As in you want links on the desktop _to_ them I assume?
[17:30] <r00723r0> yes
[17:31] <crdlb> mikebeecham: why not use twinview?
[17:31] <LjL> breakerfall: can you reach a terminal by hitting Alt+F1?
[17:31] <LjL> or Ctrl+Alt+F1
[17:31] <mikebeecham> crdlb: I am trying to...but for some reason no changes I make in nvidia settings stick
[17:31] <breakerfall> I selected ubuntu for my parents computer because it's supposed to be easy to install and use :(
[17:31] <codered_> Hello, i want to make ubuntu as router/server, i dont know from where to start!, any help would be appreciated , Thanx
[17:31] <breakerfall> LjL, no, the computer hangs.
[17:31] <mikebeecham> crdlb: everything was fine until I switched on this morning and all my graphics were haywire
[17:32] <LjL> breakerfall: start in recovery mode then, type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg », and select "vesa" as the display driver, then try booting normally
[17:32] <crdlb> mikebeecham: hmm I dunno :( but that's definitely not how you set up twinview. Twinview uses only one screen
[17:32] <feld> Has anyone here successfully installed Ubuntu over the network mounting the DVD into an /ubuntu web directory and SUCCESSFULLY used it as the mirror?
[17:32] <breakerfall> LjL, I'll give it a try, thanks.
[17:32] <tonyyarusso> r00723r0: a sec - I need to test some guesses
[17:32] <kbrooks> codered_, it's not very complicated
[17:32] <mikebeecham> crdlb: the other thing is...I dont want screens to maximise across two screens...just the screen of the monitor it is sitting in
[17:32] <linux4909_> hey, can someone tell me what it's called and i'll google it?
[17:33] <r00723r0> tonyyarusso, ok, thank you very much :)
[17:33] <Cactehe_> feld: i have installed ubuntu with unetbootin
[17:33] <linux4909_> it's the task panel thing with the apps at the bottom like mac os
[17:33] <linux4909_> http://leftyfb.left-click.org/images/desktop20070506.jpg
[17:33] <ubuntu123> Hi is there a decent manpage reader about (other then typing man <program>
[17:33] <tim__> codered_: grab an ubuntu cd, install it, install your server /routing tools, :)
[17:34] <rpj8> Hey guys, trying to move photos from my ~ directory to a mounted drive in /media... I get this error: mv: cannot stat `2007-1*': No such file or directory
[17:34] <tim__> codered_: what do you want the server to do?
[17:34] <feld> Cactehe_: that downloads the packages over the internet though, not from your local network
[17:34] <bmod> i have a problem
[17:34] <bmod> my headache won't get away
[17:34] <rafal> help... my freshly installed ubuntu fails to log in
[17:34] <rafal> into gnome
[17:34] <ubuntu123> I'm looking for something that would show my man pages in an html pretty format
[17:34] <LjL> ubuntu123: on kubunt, you can just type man:/name in Konqueror, on GNOME dunno
[17:34] <jrib> rpj8: paste the full command
[17:35] <bro_man> zax: Thank You !
[17:35] <linux4909_> Hello all.
[17:35] <linux4909_> i have a question.
[17:35] <tim__> rpj8:  are you using CLI?
[17:35] <ubuntu123> LjL, using xfce here :)
[17:35] <wressle> I'll try to ask again, can't seem to find an answer to this anywhere. Can I remove the desktop icons from Metacity? I don't want any icons messing up my workspace.
[17:35] <juano_1> rafal: any error messages ?
[17:35] <cro> hay guys, in Ubuntu I seem to be unable to upload files or images on websites, any clue why?
[17:35]  * ubuntu123 just likes Xfce more then the others... no real reason
[17:35] <soundray> mikebeecham: there are instructions for how to set up twinview via xorg.conf in /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx/README.txt.gz
[17:35] <ubuntu123> thanks though :)
[17:35] <LjL> ubuntu123: then even less of a clue, try asking in #xubuntu
[17:35] <rpj8> jrib tim__: ah wait... it seems it did mv the folders when I tried the command the first time with 'sudo' in front
[17:35] <ubuntu123> alrighty
[17:35] <tonyyarusso> r00723r0: Do any of the filenames contain spaces or other characters that need escaping?
[17:35] <r00723r0> tonyyarusso, yes
[17:36] <r00723r0> most all of them
[17:36] <rpj8> jrib tim__ : even though it said a bunch of permission denied
[17:36] <tim__> wressle: yes i have done that
[17:36] <tonyyarusso> r00723r0: bummer.  /me keeps trying
[17:36] <soundray> mikebeecham: maybe the issue with nvidia-settings not sticking is a permissions thing -- do you start it with gksudo?
[17:36] <linux4909_> hey im out, i didnt get much help but thanx ljl for trying.
[17:36] <r00723r0> haha thanks a lot man
[17:36] <wressle> tim__: Cool, do you remember how you did it? All my files in ~ end up at the Desktop right now...
[17:36] <soundray> mikebeecham: also, see in /etc/X11/ whether there are files other than xorg.conf which might be in use in its place
[17:36] <mikebeecham> soundray: no sudo
[17:36] <tim__> rpj8: mv dilikes spaces so put it in quotes?
[17:37] <bmod> how can i have my driver setting stick, so it's exactly as i have it now when i reboot?
[17:37] <knick> Hello everyone, I just installed ubuntu. I have 2 monitors, but ubuntu shows up in the wrong monitor.. I have 2 video cards in my pc.. How can I change that?
[17:37] <soundray> !gksu | mikebeecham
[17:37] <ubotu> mikebeecham: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why)
[17:37] <tim__> wressle: why are all your files on the deskyop?
[17:37] <soundray> mikebeecham: not sure whether that ^^ is at the root of your issue, though
[17:37] <wressle> Not a clue, I get icons for my files in ~ on my desktop in Metacity.
[17:37] <breakerfall> LjL, that doesn't work
[17:38] <mikebeecham> soundray: ...will restart X and see what happens...I have just made some changes in nvidia-settings based on that
[17:38] <mikebeecham> thanks
[17:38] <tim__> wressle: I think it was in configuration editor somewhere...
[17:38] <LjL> breakerfall: doesn't work because it still hangs, or doesn't work because the command doesn't work?
[17:38] <feld> I can successfully install the base system over the network, but the when I choose "OpenSSH Server" and "Ubuntu Desktop" it fails saying "Installation Step Failed" which makes no sense -- all the packages it needs in the exact same place it has been looking for them the whole time....
[17:38] <rpj8> tim__: Well see I'd tried the command without sudo at first... and it said permission denied on preserving time and setting permissions
[17:38] <breakerfall> LjL, the command doesn't work...
[17:38] <rpj8> tim__: But it seemed to move all the files anyway
[17:38] <LjL> breakerfall: well what does it complain about?
[17:38] <Jack_Sparrow> !dosentwork
[17:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dosentwork - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[17:39] <knick> !2 video cards
[17:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 2 video cards - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[17:39] <breakerfall> LjL, a warning that I'm overwriting the config
[17:39] <knick> ;x
[17:39] <LjL> !dualhead > knick    (knick, see the private message from Ubotu)
[17:39] <bmod> does ubuntu try to detect my graphics settings when i boot up?
[17:39] <breakerfall> but it doesn't ask me for any inputy
[17:39] <Jack_Sparrow> It would help if I could spell this am
[17:39] <breakerfall> It doesn't give me a list of drivers to select
 the server is to be firewall plus router
[17:39] <LjL> breakerfall, try without the "-phigh" then (it will ask many questions then, the defaults should be fine however)
[17:39] <bullgard4> [Launchpad] Status in the Status line at the beginning of a Bug page may take the values New, Incomplete, Confirmed, Triaged, InProgress, FixCommitted. Where can I find definitions or official interpretations of these values?
[17:39] <tim__> rpj8: thats normal for non ex3 file systems
[17:40] <knick> Hmm yea LjL, but actually i want the monitor which is active now.. to.. not be on
[17:40] <LjL> bullgard4, i suggest you try asking in #ubuntu-bugs
[17:40] <TitraxX> Hi
[17:40] <bullgard4> LjL: I will give it a try. Thank you.
[17:40] <SoulChild> HI ALL! How must i configure grub to load vista from my extended device /dev/sda5 ???
[17:41] <breakerfall> LjL, still no joy
[17:41] <breakerfall> I'm not in a proper terminal environment
[17:41] <breakerfall> I select the "Execute a shell in /dev/hdaX" option
[17:42] <TitraxX> Who use xchat ?
[17:42] <tim__> codered_: well ubuntu is overkill for that but all you need is iptables or firestarter(GUI)
[17:42] <soundray> SoulChild: there is a sample section for loading Windows in /boot/grub/menu.lst. Use (hd0,4) to refer to /dev/sda5 in grubspeak.
[17:42] <tim__> codered_: why not just use a router for that?
[17:43] <soundray> SoulChild: I don't think it'll work, though. Windows expects to be on a primary partition (at least it used to)
[17:43] <tim__> codered_: most run linux anyway
[17:43] <SoulChild> soundray: i then get an error message cause the extended partition has no boot flag
[17:43] <soundray> SoulChild: you can set a boot flag with sudo cfdisk
[17:43] <cro> so anyway, I've tried looking on various websites as to why uploading files to megaupload/other filehosting sites doesn't work in ubuntu, but w
[17:43] <cro> er
[17:43] <kiamo> yo, I plugged my usb stick into my machine but im not sure where to look to see if it auto mounted...
[17:43] <cro> but works fine in Vista
[17:43] <kiamo> i just have a command line
[17:43] <bofh80> TitraxX, a lot of people, ask away your questions
[17:44] <kiamo> any ideas?
[17:44] <cro> it's not an internet problem, this I've deduced
[17:44] <rpj8> Alrighty. Second question: apparently 99% of my / is taken up. How do I check which folder is being a hog
[17:44] <juano_1> kiamo: it should appear on desktop, if not just go to computer
[17:44] <TitraxX> bofh80, i have problem with auto replace fonction
[17:44] <juano_1> kiamo: and try to double click it there
[17:44] <Jack_Sparrow> rpj8: /var/cache/apt/archives
[17:44] <kiamo> i just have a cli...
[17:44] <soundray> rpj8: first stop is to run 'sudo apt-get autoclean' (clears out the package cache of outdated .debs)
[17:45] <Jack_Sparrow> rpj8: burn everything in that folder to a cd or dvd..  then clean out the folder
[17:45] <TitraxX> i want to remplace "c'ets" by "cest" but doesn't work :/
[17:45] <bofh80> TitraxX, i don't use that specific function, ask the room, i generally start with Hi people . . . . :)
[17:45] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray: I prefer to burn them so I dont need to dl them again
[17:45] <rpj8> Jack_Sparrow: That doesn't sound very productive at all
[17:45] <soundray> Jack_Sparrow: the ones that autoclean deletes will never be downloaded again, anyway
[17:45] <tim__> kiamo: ls -al /media/
[17:46] <technel> Hi. I am purchasing a keyboard/mouse and I want one that is going to work well with Ubuntu. I am probably going to go with the Logitech MX Revolution Cordless, but I was wondering if there were any suggestions for keyboards with good support in Ubuntu
[17:46] <rpj8> soundray: alright, it seemed to only remove one package
[17:46] <TitraxX> bofh80, ok
[17:46] <Jack_Sparrow> rpj8: What do you mean not productive.. It will free up space and save you dl time later
[17:46] <ivanowitc1> Hi... my laptop is having some power management problems. When i boot with the power cable connected, it works fine for a few minutes, but then it starts running on the battery, and both the power and the battery led starts flashing... I have tried booting with pci=noacpi, but that didn't solve the problem. paste of /var/log/syslog on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46594/
[17:46] <rpj8> Jack_Sparrow: Because I kind of doubt my apt cache is taking up 99% of my disk space.
[17:46] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardware | technel
[17:46] <ubotu> technel: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[17:46] <kiamo> just cdrom and cdrom0 and floppy and floppy0, theres nothing in them
[17:47] <kiamo> also its a windows usbstick, i need to format it...
[17:47] <soundray> rpj8: to find the largest folders, do a 'du / | sort -n >/tmp/dusortn ; tail -n 30 /tmp/dusortn' (takes a few minutes)
[17:47] <LjL> breakerfall, i'm not sure i know how to help you further
[17:47] <juano_1> kiamo: go to places ----> Computer
[17:47] <tonyyarusso> r00723r0: This is stretching my bash skills, but I think I'm getting somewhere :P
[17:47] <local> Hello there
[17:47] <breakerfall> LjL, I used another method to change the xorg.conf to vesa
[17:47] <juano_1> kiamo: it doesn't appear there after you connect it ?
[17:47] <r00723r0> haha ok
[17:47] <ivanowitc1> Personally I think the problem is in lines 57-58, but that is just a guess...
[17:47] <Jack_Sparrow> rpj8: It sucked up a ton of mine...  then I did the same with sources I had downloaded  freed up close to 10 gigs
[17:47] <breakerfall> however, it still hangs
[17:47] <kiamo> juano_1: nope :(
[17:48] <local> can i setup a RAID1 array on gutsy with two vfat IDE hard drive (sdb and sdc)
[17:48] <juano_1> kiamo: what filesystem is it fat ?
[17:48] <kiamo> not sure..
[17:48] <rpj8> soundray: I'm not sure I understand some up the parts of that command. Doesn't ubuntu come with a gui disk usage program?
[17:48] <kiamo> i think its fat32
[17:48] <kiamo> im just guessing tho
[17:48] <mulima> hi
[17:48] <juano_1> kiamo: should show up ... works in win or other OS ?
[17:48] <kiamo> yup in windows
[17:48] <rpj8> Jack_Sparrow: I see I see.
[17:48] <Winball> how much ram is supported in 32bit and 64bit?
[17:48] <PirateHead> Ubuntu keeps reporting a fake CD in my drive and trying to read from it, which results in constant error messages and garbage being sent to dmesg. Can anybody help me figure out how to stop it? Pastebin of dmesg | tail : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/46581/
[17:48] <rpj8> Jack_Sparrow: I definitely don't know enough about Ubuntu yet =p
[17:49] <LjL> breakerfall, then it's likely not X. check /var/log/syslog and /var/log/boot and /var/log/kern.log from recovery mode, see what's done last during boot before it hangs
[17:49] <Jack_Sparrow> rpj8: we are here to help..
[17:49] <kiamo> i just plugged it into the front of the pc, i could go down and stick it in the back...
[17:49] <tim__> kiamo: ls -1 /dev/hd*
[17:49] <scguy318> Winball: 32-bit: 3GB/1GB user/kernel, 64-bit way more than I could count :P
[17:49] <mulima> i have a pbm about frequence scaling .. cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq => 2267000   and cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq => 800000 ... so i'm always at the lowest freq ... impossible to switch to higher freq
[17:49] <tim__> kiamo: ls -1 /dev/sd*
[17:49] <TitraxX> Who use auto replace in xchat ?
[17:49] <juano_1> kiamo: yep good idea
[17:49] <kiamo> shouldnt matter tho... i just cant remember if i plugged in those ports when i built the system
[17:49] <juano_1> kiamo: to make sure plug it in the back
[17:49] <Jack_Sparrow> rpj8: If you are 99% full you need to make space SOON..
[17:49] <rpj8> Jack_Sparrow: Is there anywhere I could read up about how apt stores its cache
[17:49] <kiamo> yea
[17:49] <kiamo> brb
[17:50] <soundray> rpj8: I use command line programs for practically everything, and that's how I can help. I don't know about any GUI programs that would address your problem.
[17:50] <kiamo> gotta go back down to the cupboard under the stairs lol
[17:50] <Winball> so 32bit will only read about 3GB?
[17:50] <rpj8> Jack_Sparrow: There in-lies the problem. I'm not sure WHERE all my space has gone
[17:50] <soundray> rpj8: 'man du', 'man sort' and 'man tail' will tell you what the commands I suggested do.
[17:50] <rpj8> soundray: gotcha
[17:50] <tim__> kiamo: then check to see it there is voltage (4v) on the port
[17:50] <juano_1> kiamo: hehe
[17:51] <DreamLiner> hi, i rebooted my hp dv6000 with kubuntu gutsy and when it booted, the display resolution went back to only 800x600 and wireless adapter was also gone from knetworkmanager. iwconfig shows wlan0, how do i fix it?
[17:51] <Jack_Sparrow> rpj8: there is a man page, but free up what you can now and then find what ate up all the space.  If you goof while at 99% you will compound your problem
[17:51] <juano_1> tim__ howd it go with wireless ?
[17:51] <bram_> #ubuntu-nl
[17:51] <zax> piratehead is that a desktop or a server?
[17:51] <PirateHead> zax: It's on my laptop.
[17:52] <kiamo> juano_1: k its plugged into the back, and still not coming up in /media/
[17:52] <PirateHead> zax: I'm running Gutsy desktop edition.
[17:53] <bullgard4> Launchpad > Answers seems to me an alternative to existing mailing lists. Can you recommend a user guide for Launchpad > Answers.
[17:53] <bram_> I have a Q about my xorg.conf.., every time i reboot it goes back to xorg.conf.failsafe
[17:53] <PirateHead> bullgard4: Answers is built for integration into the rest of the Launchpad platform, whereas email lists have a hard time answering.
[17:54] <juano_1> kiamo: mm try dmesg | grep usb
[17:54] <juano_1> kiamo: maybe shows up there
[17:54] <breakerfall> LjL, all of my log files are empty
[17:54] <breakerfall> any other ideas?
[17:54] <tim__> kiamo: sudo mkdir /media/usbstick    then   sudo mount /dev/hdb1/  /media/usbstick
[17:54] <juano_1> kiamo: if not, try sudo fdisk -l
[17:54] <juano_1> kiamo: to see if it is there
[17:54] <breakerfall> I could have had gentoo installed on this machine by now :p
[17:54] <LjL> breakerfall, in that case the problem is *well* before X get started, i'd say...! do you even seen the splash screen?
[17:55] <bullgard4> PirateHead: I do nit understand what do mean by "a hard time answering"? Please say it in other words.
[17:55] <kiamo> i think its showing up in dsmg
[17:55] <DreamLiner> kwifimanager shows my wireless network so i guess knetworkmanager went nuts...
[17:55] <breakerfall> LjL, yeah, the splash screen with the progress bar?
[17:55] <rpj8> soundray: The most of it seems to be in /usr and /var
[17:55] <kiamo> not sure if its coming up in fdisk -l though
[17:55] <LjL> breakerfall: yes... the logs really shouldn't be empty if you see that :|
[17:55] <PirateHead> bullgard4: Sorry, I mistyped. I meant to say that mailing lists have a hard time integrating with Launchpad.
[17:56] <juano_1> kiamo: sudo fdisk -l, remember the sudo
[17:56] <zax> msg piratehead I am currently doing battle with the same messages on a redhat server. I have not see it on my Ubuntu server or desktop

[17:57] <Lupin> does ubuntu support hotplugging for pcmcia devices?
[17:57] <PirateHead> zax: I assume that your Red Hat server uses different hardware than your Ubuntu one. Perhaps that has something to do wtih it.

And it seems that card isn't easy to use yet, and requires manual setup each boot. ----- What would the best Creative soundcard I can use with Ubuntu 7.10 be, that I could use until XFI is out of beta?
[18:00] <juano_1> kiamo: well try this
[18:01] <PirateHead> zax: That's too bad. I've been hoping I could get this to go away!

[18:02] <mulima> anyone to help me about my freq scalng troubels ?
[18:02] <mulima> troubles*
[18:02] <kiamo> yup its mounted
[18:02] <rab> IamReck  Try used 'sudo'   Ex. sudo vi asdf.file
[18:02] <juano_1> kiamo: worked ?
[18:02] <kiamo> now i need to format it and prepare it for an installation from usb stick
[18:02] <kiamo> yea thanks juano_1
[18:02] <kiamo> :D
[18:02] <IamReck> rab, so type sudo vi and the file i want to edit?
[18:02] <AdemoS> So if I wanted the best card available, that auto-detects in Ubunto 7.10, or at least has a stable driver for it, what would be the recommendation?
[18:02] <juano_1> kiamo: cool, well to format it you can use gparted or cfdisk
[18:02] <tonyyarusso> r00723r0: mmkay, here we go: for i in /path/to/some/directory/!(*.txt); do ln -s "$i" ~/Desktop/; done
[18:02] <AdemoS> Creative if possible
[18:02] <FreeFull> IamReck, press Alt+F2 and type in gnome-terminal . press enter and then type in the terminal "sudo gedit /path/to/the/file.txt"
[18:03] <AdemoS> *soundcard
[18:03] <mulima> i have a pbm about frequence scaling .. cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq => 2267000   and cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq => 800000 ... so i'm always at the lowest freq ... impossible to switch to higher freq
[18:03] <rab> IamReck yes
[18:03] <juano_1> kiamo: gksudo gparted
[18:03] <r00723r0> tonyyarusso, wow, thanks man
[18:03] <NotSoGutsy> anybody know any reasons why I would have 20-35 second pings to my router, when it's normally 0,20-0,25 milliseconds ?
[18:03] <bullgard4> [Epiphany] Since Feisty > Gutsy upgrade Epiphany renders letters one day crisp and the next day blurry in a rather regular manner. How to get rid of the blurred rendering?
[18:03] <tonyyarusso> r00723r0: Thank #bash instead :P
[18:03] <r00723r0> haha ok
[18:03] <demon_spork> r00723r0??
[18:03] <soundray> rpj8: I see you are storing large backup files in /var/backup -- probably best to transfer those to another place (ideally away from your computer). Then you can delete them from /var/backup/
[18:03] <r00723r0> demon_spork, yes?
[18:03] <demon_spork> do I know yoiu
[18:03] <demon_spork> do you play AA?
[18:04] <rpj8> soundray: I see I see.
[18:04] <AdemoS> I don't mind if the soundcard using OpenAL or binary drivers, I just watn to know if there's any quality sound card that's proven to work with Ubuntu 7.10
[18:04] <juano_1> NotSoGutsy: maybe your checking wrong it has to be 20 - 35 ms
[18:04] <demon_spork> r00723r0, do you play America's Army?
[18:04] <rab> Why doesn't my Ubuntu 7.10 release have Autoconf????
[18:05] <demon_spork> rab, because it needs to be installed
[18:05] <r00723r0> demon_spork, used to, and you're from IMF 2.5
[18:05] <demon_spork> yep
[18:05] <demon_spork> we moved to 2.8.2
[18:05] <kbrooks> rab, Ubuntu is intended for the desktop user.
[18:05] <r00723r0> nice to see you :)
[18:05] <rpj8> soundray: Just curious: I don't know that I ever told it to make backups regularly... is there any reason Ubuntu does it on its own?
[18:05] <AdemoS> so no soundcard recommendations?

[18:06] <juano_1> NotSoGutsy: yea strange
[18:06] <r00723r0> kbrooks, i have no clue
[18:06] <rpj8> soundray: PS that removed 43%. holy crap.
[18:06] <soundray> rpj8: it doesn't normally...
[18:06] <DreamLiner> knetworkmanager no longe shows my wireless adapter on gutsy. how do i fix it?
[18:06] <rab> I like to download different packages, yet everytime I run into problems where './configure' cant find files!!!!!
[18:06] <soundray> rpj8: :) no need to swear...
[18:07] <demon_spork> rab, most of what you need is available from the ubuntu repository, so you don't need to compile from source most of the time
[18:07] <NotSoGutsy> juano_1 :: I have around 25+ second lag here too
[18:07] <demon_spork> rab, what exactly are you needing right now?
[18:07] <r00723r0> demon_spork, you know, it's kinda hard to argue with a bunch of idiots
[18:07] <rpj8> soundray: My bad. didn't know that was a swear. I suppose there's some weird cron entry that's backing up my system once ina while...?
[18:07] <juano_1> NotSoGutsy: mmm... are you wired ?
[18:07] <juano_1> NotSoGutsy: or wireless ?
[18:07] <demon_spork> r00723r0, that was 2.5, if you play 2.8.2 they accept you if you haven't been banned by ACI basically
[18:08] <r00723r0> demon_spork, too bad icculus gave up support for AA a couple of years ago
[18:08] <NotSoGutsy> yes
[18:08] <juano_1> NotSoGutsy: wired ?
[18:08] <rab> I wanted a 'CallerID' program, and the only ones I found need to be build!   Seems to me the Ubuntu release should give you all the latest stuff to do builds with... IMHO
[18:08] <NotSoGutsy> I have tried power-cycling the router, the switch, and the modem, to no effect
[18:08] <NotSoGutsy> juano_1 :: restarting my own machine fixes it for a few hours, but then it stops again
[18:08] <juano_1> NotSoGutsy: check your cable, it might be bad
[18:08] <soundray> rpj8: if you do a 'grep GettinJiggyWiddit /tmp/dusortn', you will see a list of backups that there were, and when they were done
[18:09] <NotSoGutsy> juano_1 :: yes, wired
[18:09] <NotSoGutsy> juano_1 :: on CAT6e, I think, to a gigabit switch, if that matters
[18:09] <jrib> !compile > rab (read the private message from ubotu)
[18:09] <NotSoGutsy> or maybe it's just CAT6
[18:09] <cab46> ho la toolbar che non mi mostra piu le tray icon
