[11:28] <ardchoille> jazz: yw
[11:29] <ardchoille> o2o: do you not have the official sources?
[11:29] <rww> o2o: Assuming you mean an example sources.list file, http://paste.ubuntu.com/382185/
[11:30] <jofo> rww, Thanks. That’s non trivial. That doesn’t simplify the report of a bug.

[11:32] <mikebeecham> is there any way that I can block my ip address in Ubuntu?
[11:32] <daniskami> oivey: are you really sure your computer can boot from USB?
[11:33] <o2o> rww, that is not what i need
[11:34] <oivey> daniskami: the guides ive seen online say i should be able to, also, ive successfully booted GRML and puppy linux from usb, its just fedora 12 and ubuntu i have trouble with.
[11:34] <o2o> rww, i need the sources of ubuntu 9.10, for example : archive.ubuntu.com
[11:35] <anomiewut> Hello, can anyone tell me how I can give a FTP user enough rights that he can upload/edit any file?
[11:35] <oivey> daniskami: whoa nvm, it jsut spontaneously started working
[11:37] <rww> o2o: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors
[11:38] <gilgamesh> ick trigun
[11:38] <o2o> rww, I want a list of different sources sites.
[11:39] <rww> o2o: archive.ubuntu.com is an Ubuntu archive mirror. That page is a list of Ubuntu archive mirrors.
[11:39] <mikebeecham> does anyone know how I can hide my ip address within Linux/Ubuntu?
[11:40] <erUSUL> mikebeecham: hide from who? irc users?
[11:40] <mikebeecham> erSUL - Hulu.com :D
[11:40] <o2o> for example, the mit.edu sources, the ubuntu.xxx.com
[11:40] <o2o> etc.
[11:40] <o2o> rww
[11:40] <mikebeecham> erUSUL: Hulu.com!
[11:41] <rww> o2o: both of which are on that page...
[11:41] <o2o> i couldn't see it.
[11:42] <rww> o2o: pick a mirror, then click on its name or see the http/ftp/rsync links to the right of the name
[11:42] <o2o> I mean a lot of apt update sources of different sites.
[11:42] <o2o> rww
[11:43] <jpds> o2o: You can also pick a mirror from System → Admin → Software Sources.
[11:43] <jpds> o2o: Using the "Download from:" option.
[11:43] <o2o> yeah, jpds, that's the thing i need!
[11:45] <erUSUL> mikebeecham: you will have to use a proxy of some sort
[11:47] <ardchoille> o2o: And be careful with your sources.. use only sources meant for your system )eg karmic, jaunty, etc)
[11:50] <proteus> why is it when I try to load fbterm it says "can't open framebuffer device!" ? is there a specific kernel module I need to load with modprobe or do I need to make that regular user a member of a certain group?
[11:51] <erUSUL> proteus: see if you have the fb device in the /dev/ and what permissions it got
[11:51] <proteus> erUSUL, there's no /dev/fb at alll
[11:51] <erUSUL> proteus: then yu need to load the module for the framebuffer
[11:51] <ruggero> hello
[11:52] <ruggero> :list
[11:52] <proteus> erUSUL, what's the name of the module cos I was just tab-auto-completing on fb and could only find fbcon.
[11:52] <rww> !list | ruggero
[11:53] <erUSUL> proteus: vesafb ? nvidiafb atifb ? « find /lib/modules/ -name '*fb*' »
[11:53] <proteus> erUSUL, thanks I'll take a peek
[11:55] <proteus> erUSUL, thanks - I found the correct module for fb. I think this old laptop has an s3 graphics card in it. I modprobe'd the s3fb module but there's still no entry for /dev/fb. does one have to make it?
[11:56] <erUSUL> proteus: no; make sure what your graphic card is « lspci | grep -i vga »
[11:59] <b00n> just installed 9.10 and proprietary Ati driver...was wondering why my xorg.conf is so bare?
[12:00] <proteus> oh s3 savage/ix-mv

[12:00] <proteus> it worked.
[12:00] <proteus> savagefb was the correct module.

[12:02] <Gearn> how are you guys
[12:02] <bizarrefish> hi,, all
[12:02] <b00n> <noob needs help :(
[12:02] <bizarrefish> what's the trouble?
[12:03] <b00n> ati 4870...How do I know its working correctly?
[12:03] <Gearn> are you familia with movie
[12:03] <bizarrefish> b00n: do "glxinfo | grep render"
[12:03] <usuario> joseee
[12:03] <usuario> ola a todos
[12:03] <bizarrefish> if it's working right(which it probably isn't because it's ATI :-/) it'll say "Direct Rendering: Yes"
[12:03] <erUSUL> proteus: no problem
[12:04] <b00n> came back with....
[12:04] <b00n> direct rendering: Yes
[12:04] <b00n> OpenGL renderer string: ATI Radeon HD 4800 Series
[12:04] <b00n>     GL_KTX_buffer_region, GL_NV_blend_square, GL_NV_conditional_render,
[12:04] <bizarrefish> b00n: yup, it's working
[12:04] <b00n> but my xorg.conf is so bare and I have tons of tearing when dragging windows left to right
[12:05] <krishnan> how to install java on ubuntu 9.04?
[12:05] <bizarrefish> b00n: in the latest ubuntu most of the Xorg config is done automatically. you don't even need an Xorg.conf
[12:05] <krishnan> how to install java on ubuntu 9.04?
[12:05] <b00n> ah
[12:05] <bizarrefish> krishnan: look for sun-java in synaptic
[12:06] <rokot> ðóññêèå åñòü?
[12:06] <dreamy_> hi mokabojo , are you there ?
[12:06] <b00n> should aticonfig --initial work? because that gives me an error
[12:06] <Gearn> hi krishnan
[12:07] <rokot> hey any body
[12:07] <bizarrefish> b00n: that's probably to autogenerate an Xorg.conf that's optomized for ati stuff. It's probably a good idea to run it(as root), but if it fails it's not the end of the world. Im not surprised if it does fail, because ATI do really suck at this kind of thing.

[12:08] <b00n> so the screen tearing in movies and dragging windows etc is just ati drivers sucking balls?
[12:08] <ikonia> b00n: calm the language down please
[12:08] <bizarrefish> b00n: there are probably some settings you can stick in Xorg.conf to fix those.

[12:11] <b00n> can u walk me through that?
[12:11] <rokot> I was there. Only chanserv
[12:11] <Glowball> I'm thinking about adding Lucid repositories to my Karmic Koala, to get new software upgrades (such as Firefox 3.6), would this be a bad idea (i.e. Would I be getting too many updates/beta software)?
[12:12] <ikonia> rokot: there are 34+ people in that channel, you spelt it wrong
[12:12] <ikonia> Glowball: very bad idea
[12:13] <ikonia> Glowball: your dependencies would fail and conflict with karmic
[12:13] <bizarrefish> b00n: this could be useful: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=647087
[12:13] <rokot> ok. thanks
[12:13] <Glowball> ikonia: I have also added Jaunty repositories, without any problems
[12:14] <Genti> umm.. not sure about the rules of the channel, but do i just say my question?
[12:14] <ikonia> Glowball: any problem that you know of - but in reality adding jaunty won't do anything because the kamirc packages are newer so it will never add anything from the jaunty repo's
[12:14] <jrib> Genti: yes
[12:15] <Genti> alrighty, im really bad at this stuff, but i was able to install ubuntu on a VM and it is running. Purpose was to be able to connect a flash irc client to my ircd
[12:15] <Genti> but flash has this socket security thing and something about xml and port 843
[12:15] <Glowball> ikonia: Well, except for explicitly downgrading software, that's why I did it. But adding Lucid will get it screwed up?
[12:15] <Genti> after hours on the web i found out that i need to install flashpolicyd
[12:16] <Genti> and, thats where im stuck and having issues
[12:16] <ikonia> Glowball: adding jaunty will get you screwed up
[12:16] <ikonia> Glowball: adding anything other than compatible repos will mess it up
[12:16] <Glowball> ikonia: it didn't in the past 3 months?
[12:16] <ikonia> Glowball: you have no problems that you know of
[12:17] <Genti> so, how exactly do i install flashpolycd, the commands they give in the help files are not working :(
[12:18] <vaysu> hi all
[12:18] <Glowball> ikonia: Could you clarify what problems I might be having then? I'm quite interested in how I screwed that one up :P
[12:18] <heroscorp> vaysu: hi
[12:19] <ikonia> Glowball: they all have different version dependencies, not all are compatible
[12:20] <vaysu> hi heroscorp ...i have a doubt regarding "compiling akernel for my system " can u help
[12:20] <ikonia> Glowball: the rpeos are meant to be compatible with that version only, so mixing them can cause a lot of problems
[12:21] <ikonia> repo's even
[12:22] <Genti> can anyone help with flashpolycd?
[12:22] <Glowball> ikonia: So I'm quite damn lucky nothing happened, I guess :P

[12:51] <indus> hi folks
[12:51] <Pici> indus: hi :)
[12:52] <amjaduae> hi indus

[12:52] <abhi_nav> its not a abhor_navigation its abhi_nav
[12:52] <amjaduae> ha hannes815
[12:53] <recom> Hi, when my Firefox starts and loads quick but my mouse shows the rotating pointer after its started too long as i think. Can you have a look: http://corex.org/out-1.ogv ?
[12:53] <indus> hi Pici :) good day
[12:53] <indus> and amjaduae
[12:53] <reaperfiveoh> Don't care
[12:53] <indus> recom, its normal, happens here too
[12:53] <abhi_nav> type correct nick so that reciever wll understand that it is for him
[12:54] <reaperfiveoh> Silence
[12:54] <indus> a bug should be filed though i feel, or maybe its trying to do somethin in the bckground
[12:54] <mostafakvd> how to find a word in files?
[12:54] <Myrtti> mostafakvd: with grep
[12:54] <hannes815> hay I'm using pidgin4skype and I've seen the native skype client for MacOSX, where the buddy list and the chat window are connected, I would like to do this with pidgin, does anyone know how this could work?
[12:54] <mostafakvd> Myrtti: can u make me an example
[12:54] <mostafakvd> ?
[12:54] <racha> Dr_Willis, i think i just got it why it was't play any songs ... Funny :) ... Because its on my NTFS par. and i needed Auth...  its possible to disable that auth. ?
[12:55] <Myrtti> mostafakvd: grep word filename(S)
[12:55] <Dr_Willis> racha:  if you dont have the ntfs drive in fstab. it wont automount at boot.. it will mount when you first access it.
[12:55] <bugaloo> recom, you can try to run firefox from terminal, using "firefox -safe-mode" to run with no extensions. so you can find out if there is an extension or add-on making your firefox slow
[12:55] <mostafakvd> Myrtti: can I find a word through a folder containing some files?
[12:55] <recom> indus: hmm ok thanks. It's not nice, i hope it will be fixed ... but doesnt really bother. bugaloo: i will try
[12:55] <abhi_nav> I want to talk to a person who have practically exported mail from thunderbird.
[12:55] <racha> Dr_Willis, its possible to make that Automount ?
[12:56] <bugaloo> recom, cas the problem doesn't show up, you can disable extensions one by one to find out the problem
[12:56] <racha> Dr_willis, and disable that Atuh. because it ask me all the time for it :S
[12:56] <Myrtti> abhi_nav: I honestly didn't know that you can get hotmail into a imap/pop3 client without paying for it.
[12:56] <Dr_Willis> racha:  as i sort of just said.. entry in fstab = mounts at boot up.

[13:01] <raddy> But there is no activity in it.
[13:01] <bittin> Hello has anyone here tested Crunchbang?
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> madjoe:  i think the icon has a little border around it. :)
[13:02] <Myrtti> raddy: and it's had activity on Saturday last
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> madjoe:  be nifty (it may work) if you can drag/drop an icon onto that icon to change it

[13:15] <stdisease> learst, if the problem is still there or if versions are the same, head over to #python they might have a better way to troubleshoot your problem
[13:15] <learst> stdisease, well the python that came with this ubuntu is 2.6. Do you really think it's a python thing? Or can i try disabling the buffer overflow thing? is it the end of my PC life if i disable it?
[13:16] <Dr_Willis> You can install earlier verisons of pytohon if you wanted to
[13:16] <ibuclaw> learst, buffer overflows are a software/application issue. ;) And python code between versions doesn't really keep backwards compatibility.
[13:17] <stdisease> learst, a buffer overflow is a bug, it's not a feature you enable and disable so that's not very meaningful. What you can do is try installing 'python2.5' and run the script with 'python2.5 <yourscript.py>'

[13:19] <learst> stdisease, ok i might not know much bout python. But the script is quite simple and all it does is call 3 programs to run. all 3 programmes generate output files. however only 1 program didn't and the terminate msg points out that program and not the python script. So somehow i think it's the called program that might be causing the problem

[13:19] <stdisease> helloyv, what is the type of the file system you're trying to mount?
[13:19] <ibuclaw> Leoneof, is that the same for all ports you plug the USB into?

[13:23] <Dr_Willis> candyban:  raid over tcp/ip seems like a neat trick however
[13:23] <candyban> Dr_Willis, I can't seem to install it using the regular m-a nor with the command in the README
[13:23] <ibuclaw> Leoneof, ah, OK. First I'd try the device on another OS first. If you still get the same results, could be a hardware issue.
[13:24] <candyban> Dr_Willis, it is working on Debian which are all my other servers (it's my first Ubuntu server)
[13:24] <luismendes> stdisease, can you give me any directions?
[13:24] <Leoneof> ibuclaw: but i tried with Windows, it is work fine
[13:25] <stdisease> luismendes, I can give you a ready made small shell script I wrote once, or you can use the package linux-igd
[13:25] <helloyv> stdisease, unable to find a suitable fs in /proc/mounts?  this happens after i compile a new kernel,but i don't know what's wrong
[13:25] <stdisease> luismendes, linux-igd would do it all for you AND set up UPnP as well. Unless you're trying to learn iptables of course
[13:26] <Dr_Willis> helloyv:  i would guess you dident build the fs modules needed.. or dident include them into the kernel.
[13:26] <stdisease> helloyv, so the exact error message you see is 'unable to find a suitable fs in /proc/mounts' ? After what command does it show that?
[13:27] <ibuclaw> Leoneof, what type of device is it? USB mouse? other?
[13:28] <sd> hu
[13:28] <Leoneof> ibuclaw: is there are conflicts with VirtualBox? because when i run VirtualBox, Ubuntu will detect and run USB
[13:29] <fortEZ> iceroot: Thanks a lot! found it! :D /cheers
[13:29] <helloyv> stdisease,after bios check,a sentences: missing sysfs features;udev may not work correct,to disable CONFIG_SYS_DEPRECATE, then come out:unable to find a suitable fs..
[13:30] <[diablo]> afternoon #ubuntu ... does anyone know a method of burning .cue and .mp3 's please?
[13:30] <nibbler> helloyv: your problem is not understood. what did you do, what doyou expect to happen, what happens exactly?
[13:30] <Leoneof> Dr_Willis, ibuclaw: the problem is solved, it is work now, i think because of VirtualBox
[13:31] <helloyv> nibbler, i only come into console,and can't log into gnome
[13:32] <ale_> h
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> Leoneof:  ive had the issues without vbox being installed.. but ive not paid much attention to it.
[13:32] <Dr_Willis> Leoneof:  could be some vbox bug i guess
[13:33] <learst> hm, well can anyone tell me whether it's ok to disable "buffer overflow" which terminates a programme i wish to run. And if so, how do i disable it?
[13:33] <Leoneof> Dr_Willis: i see, maybe vbox can make auto mount for USB, could be helpful, lol
[13:33] <Dr_Willis> Leoneof:  when running vbox it WORKS? or it breaks?
[13:33] <stdisease> helloyv, well you'll have to recompile the kernel with the feature disabled, you can either it find and disable it from the menuconfig or edit the .config file directly and comment it out, also make sure the file system modules for all your partitions are selected
[13:34] <krambiorix> hi guys, i would like to downgrade php on my ubuntu box, how can i do that?
[13:34] <Leoneof> Dr_Willis: it works! :D
[13:34] <Dr_Willis> learst:  how are you going to disable that buffer overflow?
[13:34] <nibbler> helloyv: so your kernel boots etc, not too bad for a start - i read something about sys before, /sys has some stuff in it? mount /sys output?
[13:34] <Dr_Willis> Leoneof:  that is weird.
[13:34] <abhi_nav> I want to talk to a person who have practically exported mail from thunderbird.
[13:34] <stdisease> learst, what's the program triggering the overflow?
[13:34] <learst> Dr_willis: i dunno. i was jusat asking if it's okay to do so. And how to do it.
[13:34] <nibbler> learst: buffer overflow is a programming error, so its a bug in the program..... try getting a newer or even an older version
[13:34] <Dr_Willis> learst:  well,. You cant disable it. :)
[13:35] <nena> ola que pasa
[13:35] <nibbler> !es | nena
[13:35] <Dr_Willis> learst:  imagine putting a 10000 character file into a variable desingned to hold 500 characters
[13:35] <learst> stdisease: it's called muscle3.7, an analysis programme. and i am aware that it uses a large amount of memory when running the analysis
[13:35] <nena> puedes contestar
[13:35] <krambiorix> anyone?
[13:35] <nena> ola biabia
[13:35] <Dr_Willis> learst:  sounds like a bad bug in the program to me.
[13:35] <nibbler> learst: its *not* out of memory, its buffer overflow, thishas nothing to do with lack of ram
[13:36] <nena> Wor you name
[13:36] <Dr_Willis> learst:  you can make a 5 line program that does nothing that can buffer overflow. :)
[13:36] <abhi_nav> !anyone | krambiorix
[13:36] <RanyAlbeg> Hi , i wanted to know what are those ~ files..thanks :)
[13:36] <DJ_HaMsTa> i just installed ubuntu and it wont load pass the GRUB screen, all it says is GRUB and its stuck there
[13:36] <learst> nibbler, Dr_willis: well ok, but it's an open-source software written by an individual. and i have gotten it to run before, on another pc.
[13:36] <nena> aur a yu
[13:36] <nibbler> learst: of course it can be malformed input aswell. (would be a programming error triggered by faulty input then)
[13:37] <nena> diablo que te pasa
[13:37] <krambiorix>  i would like to downgrade php on my ubuntu box, how can i do that?
[13:37] <Dr_Willis> learst:   like nibbler  said.. or it could be some support lib has the actual bug
[13:37] <adifire> DJ_HaMsTa, did live cd work?
[13:37] <stdisease> RanyAlbeg, usually backups or temporary files automatically created by applications like text editors, etc..
[13:37] <learst> nibbler, sorry. i'm nont that familiar with programming, memoryt etc. so i'm not exactly sure what is "buffer overflow".
[13:37] <nibbler> learst: it is a bug in the program, thats not subject for discussion, its just the very clear interpretation of the message you gave us. can be this version, can be your version of used libraries etc.
[13:37] <abhi_nav> krambiorix: i dont thing there is any automated tool to downgrade someting. just unintall current version and install old one
[13:38] <Dr_Willis> !pin | krambiorix
[13:38] <candyban>  anyone in here knows how to compile the drbd8 module?
[13:38] <krambiorix> abhi_nav, how can i get the old one from apt ?
[13:38] <candyban> karmic
[13:38] <RanyAlbeg> stdisease: can i use them to restore the original file after i remove it?
[13:38] <nibbler> learst: it means the programmer prepared the program to load a variable of lets say 120 bytes, but then at runtime the program tries to load 150 bytes - buffer overflow, end of program
[13:38] <krambiorix> ow thx Dr_Willis
[13:38] <DJ_HaMsTa> adifire should work, i will try it right now, 1 sec
[13:38] <Dr_Willis> krambiorix:  if the old one is in apt. you can install and pin he old bversion
[13:38] <Spyzer> if i have installed any package<bitbake for example> through its source, which is installed in different /usr/? directories. How do i uninstall the program(A problem, since source code installations don't ppear in syanptic or apt>
[13:38] <abhi_nav> krambiorix: whats the software name?
[13:38] <nibbler> learst: and no, you cant fix it, unless you know how to program
[13:39] <learst> nibbler, Dr_willis, stdisease: so what can i do? i need to get the programme to run, and i'm quite sure that my input file for it is ok
[13:39] <you_katan> http://pastie.org/838534
[13:39] <Dr_Willis> learst:  try different versions.. try recompilig the latest.. try on differnt disrto/live cd
[13:39] <nibbler> learst: you haveanother pc where it works, use this one. install older or newer version of same program, try it on a differnt distribution, preferably one that has this program in its packet repository and so supports and tests it
[13:39] <krambiorix> abhi_nav: i want PHP 5.2.6-3ubuntu4
[13:39] <you_katan> please see the code, I've got a segfaults always :(
[13:39] <anomiewut> can anyone tell me how I can give a FTP user enough rights that he can upload/edit any file???
[13:39] <Dr_Willis> learst:  try it with differnt input files.. see if it does it for other files
[13:39] <Spyzer> kindly help me anyone
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> anomiewut:  any file on the WHOLE system?
[13:40] <Spyzer> if i have installed any package<bitbake for example> through its source, which is installed in different /usr/? directories. How do i uninstall the program(A problem, since source code installations don't ppear in syanptic or apt>
[13:40] <anomiewut> Dr_Willis; yes.
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> anomiewut:  you would basicailly have to let them ftp in as root i imagine.
[13:40] <Dr_Willis> anomiewut:  good luck.
[13:40] <learst> Dr_willis ok i'm gonna try some other input files. thanks Dr_willis, nibbler, and stdisease.
[13:40] <anomiewut> Yeh I tried using the root
[13:40] <bugaloo> guys, please... how can I configure my laptop to put speakers on mute when I plug the headphones? It works on windows, so I think this is a software thing.
[13:40] <anomiewut> but it wouldnt log in as that
[13:40] <anomiewut> so I just want to give a user root pivs
[13:41] <Dr_Willis> anomiewut:  yep.  you would have to get around most ftp servers security features where they block root.
[13:41] <abhi_nav> krambiorix: download old version from their website?
[13:41] <Dr_Willis> anomiewut:  ive seen ways ages ago to make a 2nd user who was identical to root. but i dont recall how.
[13:41] <stdisease> bugaloo, open the mixer and mute or from the terminal, 'alsamixer'
[13:41] <anomiewut> Is there not a simple command that gives the user root (or close to it) privs?
[13:42] <krambiorix> abhi_nav: i thought to do it with apt , but ok no probs
[13:42] <bugaloo> stdisease, when I mute this, it mutes the headphones too
[13:42] <Dr_Willis> anomiewut:  proberly not.
[13:42] <abhi_nav> krambiorix: ok
[13:42] <helloyv> stdisease, how to disable it in directly,just set the value to 0 in config file or to add a # in the front.
[13:42] <jad> hola, where does exaile store the now playing playlist: if I want to retrieve the plalist now playing, where do I go, any idea ?
[13:42] <web5|org|ua> How to share ftp access ONLY for one ip(machine) ?
[13:42] <candyban> nm ... drbd8 module is apparantly already compiled by default (why drbd8-utils depend on drbd8-source is a mystery though)
[13:42] <stdisease> anomiewut, what kind of privileges do you need. Anything sudo wouldn't provide?
[13:42] <abhi_nav> krambiorix: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=44082
[13:42] <anomiewut> no its not for use
[13:42] <DJ_HaMsTa> adifire live CD works flawless
[13:42] <Dr_Willis> web5|org|ua:  most ftp servers have security/settings to do that.
[13:42] <anomiewut> its for joomla
[13:43] <researcher1> my monitor does not show better resolution option on UBUNTU 9.1.Any help please
[13:43] <anomiewut> so I don't need to CHMOD all my files to 0777
[13:43] <anomiewut> you just give it ftp access
[13:43] <adifire> DJ_HaMsTa, hmmm...what's ur pc config..
[13:43] <anomiewut> it would only need full read/write permission over /var/www
[13:43] <web5|org|ua> Dr_Willis: never tried, which is better ?
[13:43] <ibuclaw> anomiewut, O: O: O:
[13:43] <Dr_Willis> anomiewut:   just var/www is doable..  proberly  very easially.. thats not what you asked however., :)
[13:43] <stdisease> bugaloo, maybe because you muted the master. Try muting just the speaker
[13:44] <Dr_Willis> web5|org|ua:  no idea. I dont use ftp any more. use ssh and sftp. Dump ftp
[13:44] <anomiewut> ive set the home directory of the user to /var/www
[13:44] <anomiewut> it didnt make a difference though
[13:44] <Dr_Willis> anomiewut:  did you set teh permissions of the /var/www ? you are trying to hard to do this i imagine theres a better more secure way
[13:44] <DJ_HaMsTa> adifire 2 GB ram/ AMD 64 3200 / 2 raid mirrored drives 1 single where ubuntu is configured in, the raid will be for storage
[13:44] <Dr_Willis> anomiewut:  i think thats what 'groups' are for
[13:44] <stdisease> bugaloo, exactly how depends on the software you're using and your hardware
[13:44] <bugaloo> stdisease, that's the problem, there is no separated channels for headphones. I want to know how to do that
[13:44] <candyban> web5|org|ua, firewall? (iptables)
[13:44] <helloyv> stdisease, guy,how to disable it in directly,just set the value to 0 in config file or to add a # in the front?thx
[13:45] <web5|org|ua> Dr_Willis: Hmm, maybe is a sulition for me.
[13:45] <Dr_Willis> web5|org|ua:  alterantive way would be an iptables rule.
[13:45] <ComradeTiki> Greetings.... Is there a way to create & add, or modify, one of the available keyboard layouts accessible under "Preferences->Keyboard->Layouts->Add..."? (After some looking, it appears "xorg.conf" is obsolete, and ".Xmodmap" would change the keyboard's behaviour under every language layout...)
[13:45] <adifire> DJ_HaMsTa, ok..which ver of ubunut?
[13:45] <jlbayo-off> Buenos días canal :)
[13:45] <Dr_Willis> web5|org|ua:  but i imagine most ftp servers have some 'allow from ....' settings
[13:45] <web5|org|ua> candyban: don't know, maybe.

[13:45] <anomiewut> Dr_Willis: how do I do that?
[13:45] <bugaloo> stdisease, I have only master volume and PCM volume... there is no a channel for headphones. I think I have to do some configuration on alsa or something, but I dont know how
[13:45] <Dr_Willis> !groups | anomiewut

[13:46] <jlbayo-off> see you!
[13:46] <Dr_Willis> anomiewut:  read up on linux file permissions
[13:46] <Dr_Willis> I havent used groups in years either.
[13:46] <_UsUrPeR_> is anybody familiar with kickstart?
[13:46] <bugaloo> stdisease, already said: I use the alsamixer, but there is no channel for headphones
[13:46] <Myrtti> is the only sensible way of viewing ppt-presentations in Ubuntu to install OpenOffice? please say it ain't so.   Good Luck
[13:47] <abhi_nav> bugaloo: and _UsUrPeR_ : i see. ok thnx
[13:47] <Dr_Willis> anomiewut:  considering you jsut said you wanted  root ftp access to EVERY file on the machine.. I think you need to learn some linux basics badly.
[13:48] <RanyAlbeg> stdisease: can i use them to restore the original file after i remove it?
[13:48] <ibuclaw> anomiewut, also, why not samba ?
[13:48] <Dr_Willis> anomiewut:  or why not just use ssh/sftp
[13:48] <anomiewut> joomla doesnt accept sftp
[13:48] <Spyzer> some one can tell me of a flex tutorial which can recognise tokens just like c prog lang does?
[13:48] <Spyzer> pls
[13:49]  * Dr_Willis imagines the 'user acess to /var/www' has to be a common faq.  out there somewhere.
[13:49] <candyban> Dr_Willis, FilePermissions page do not talk about SetUID bit :p
[13:49] <ibuclaw> you don't need write access to the ENTIRE system. Most likely just one or two directories
[13:49] <Dr_Willis> candyban:  thats proberly a good thing
[13:49] <anomiewut> I have done sudo chown -R User /var/www
[13:49] <anomiewut> it doesnt work
[13:49] <Dr_Willis> candyban:  suid bit = our secret weapon.

[13:59] <adifire> DJ_HaMsTa, fine...let me know aftr reinstallation... actually u can edit grub some ways... u can reinstall grub.
[13:59] <adifire> DJ_HaMsTa, fine...let me know aftr reinstallation... actually u can edit grub some ways... u can reinstall grub.
[13:59] <ibuclaw> Spyzer, and a more indepth guide + source here: http://epaperpress.com/lexandyacc/index.html
[14:00] <adifire> DJ_HaMsTa, since u r resintallin it, then let it continue..
[14:00] <ibuclaw> Spyzer, it takes quite some knack to get your head around it though :)
[14:01] <nonameNN> how can i increase the temp where the cpu coolers start?
[14:02] <nibbler> Fill23: well, if the newer version is in any repository you have, just use synaptic or sudo aptitude upgrade
[14:05] <tc06008> hi
[14:05] <opengyan> hi for the sake of LTS i just installed 8.04
[14:05] <opengyan> now i need to have some of the packages in their latest version
[14:05] <opengyan> like network manager etc ...
[14:05] <peter_> how to get work middle button when i press two fingers on touchpad?
[14:05] <Crahels> hi
[14:06] <opengyan> how should i get latest version for these individual packeges
[14:07] <tc06008> hi
[14:07] <Dr_Willis> opengyan:  not very easially.
[14:07] <Dr_Willis> opengyan:  is there some reason you need the latest?
[14:07] <Fill23> nibbler: it didn't update rhythmbox, it's still 0.12.0 instead of 0.12.16
[14:08] <opengyan> yea ..some features are better supported ...
[14:08] <nibbler> Fill23: then there is no more recent version in any repository you have, check for a ppa, or remove and install from source if you need it
[14:08] <opengyan> should i manually install them instead ?
[14:09] <Fill23> nibbler: ok , thx, what is ppa?
[14:09] <Dr_Willis> opengyan:  there might be some backports.. but if you want more features/support you may want to use the latest release.. or wait for the next LTS thats due out in  april i think
[14:09] <nibbler> !ppa | Fill23
[14:09] <Dr_Willis> opengyan:  or there may be some PPA repos for them
[14:09] <gerry__> Hi, does anybody know how I can change all files in a directory structure which are owned by user x to be owned by user y? Keeping in mind there will also be files that are now owned by user x.
[14:09] <opengyan> Dr_Willis: thx ..i tried backports ,..it sayed ..the version is latest :)
[14:09] <Pici> opengyan: By choosing the LTS version of Ubuntu you are trading novelty for stability.
[14:09] <gerry__> s/now/not/
[14:09] <nibbler> Fill23: by using ppa sources you trust strangers. so be sure you know what you do.
[14:09] <erUSUL> gerry__: which files
[14:10] <opengyan> Pici: ok..
[14:10] <Dr_Willis>  gerry__  sudo chown username  filename        is what i normally do. Not sure if a user can 'hand off' and change somthing tobe owned by a differnt user
[14:10] <gerry__> erUSUL just a bunch of files in a directory structure many of them belong to one particular user and I want them to belong to another
[14:10] <opengyan> still no harm to completely move to 9.10 right ?
[14:11] <Fill23> nibbler, ubottu thx guys
[14:11] <Dr_Willis> opengyan:  9.10 works for me. You may have more harm by trying to mixx in newer stuff on the older version
[14:11] <gerry__> Dr_Willis: yeah, but I sorta want to do a search and replace on the owner of a bunch of files
[14:11] <opengyan> Dr_Willis: yea ..better to get a complete new version ...
[14:11] <Dr_Willis> gerry__:  thers the find tool and -R or was it -r for recursive changes
[14:12] <erUSUL> gerry__: chown user -R folder
[14:12] <gerry__> Dr_Willis: so you're saying I could pipe find somehow into chown?
[14:13] <Dr_Willis> gerry__:  find has such a feature
[14:13] <Dr_Willis> gerry__:  no need for a pipe :)
[14:13] <Geoni> I want to set a PC as a server. on the PC running Ubuntu 9.10 and samba. I want to set up samba, that smb.conf file so that if I have 2 Windows users accessing the data to be stored on this server one of them to have access both to his files and on the other, and the other only his own, without access to files belonging to the first. I want to make data access only with password. What should contain smb.conf file? Can you help?
[14:13] <DJ_HaMsTa> adifire it worked. i removed 2 of the drives that are made into RAID mirror. The ubuntu drive is set up as main drive this is odd
[14:13] <gerry__> erUSUL: yes but that would change all files to be owned by the new user, not just ones owned by user x
[14:13] <erUSUL> gerry__: then use find like Dr_Willis said
[14:13] <gerry__> Dr_Willis: thanks, I'll take a look
[14:13] <gerry__> erUSUL: cheers, will do
[14:14] <bfri> my internal mic stopped working when i installed ubuntu any suggestions
[14:15] <Dr_Willis> !mic
[14:15] <erUSUL> gerry__: find folder -use <username> -exec chown <newuser> '{}' \;
[14:15] <bfri> dr_willis yes
[14:15] <adifire> DJ_HaMsTa, well...that's good... i don't kno abt RAID drives much..but guess everythin must b workin fine..
[14:15] <gerry__> erUSUL: thanks heaps :))))
[14:17] <AleJandro> fff
[14:17] <AleJandro> hola
[14:17] <mattgyver> Hey guys, im installing ubuntu on a 40gb solid state drive.  I really only want to install the core system and a handful of applications onto the SSD however.  Whats the best way to go about this (ie which directories would be a must on the SSD), thanks.
[14:17] <AleJandro> que tal estais marikoes=
[14:17] <AleJandro> ??
[14:18] <Dr_Willis> mattgyver:  a full normal install is only like 5gb. you can put /home/ somewhere else if you wanted and you may want to put /var somewhere else.. but then what are you going to do with the 35gb left on the sdd. :)
[14:18]  * abhi_nav help
[14:19] <nowonmai> mattgyver: /boot/ /bin/ /etc/ /dev/ /sbin/ /proc/ /sys/ /lib/ would probably cover the basics, put the rest elsewhere
[14:19] <mattgyver> Dr_Willis: haha good call, i guess i just dont wanna fill up the drive.  My current installation was about 50 gigs so i dont wanna run out of room soon and i have about a 500GB of storage space on other drives.
[14:19] <tommis> what is the best program for html coding?
[14:19] <tommis> i would wanna try something different than blueshift
[14:19] <mattgyver> Dr_Willis: of course the 50 gigs wasnt all ubuntu
[14:19] <nowonmai> mattgyver: best solution is to put /home/ /var/ /usr/ and /opt/ somewhere else and the rest on your ssd
[14:20] <abhi_nav> hi
[14:20] <mattgyver> nowonmai: thats exactly what i needed to know.  Thanks guys.
[14:20]  * abhi_nav hello
[14:20] <ikonia> hi
[14:21] <adifire> pls help Geoni with this one
[14:21] <adifire> I want to set a PC as a server. on the PC running Ubuntu 9.10 and samba. I want to set up samba, that smb.conf file so that if I have 2 Windows users accessing the data to be stored on this server one of them to have access both to his files and on the other, and the other only his own, without access to files belonging to the first. I want to make data access only with password. What should contain smb.c
[14:21] <ikonia> adifire: put a group ownership on the shared secriotn, and make both users a member, then put owner permissons on the locked directory for one user
[14:22] <Dr_Willis> adifire:  the 'samba-doc' package has several books on the topic. One book is samba by example (i think) that has such example/case  setups.
[14:22] <Dr_Willis> adifire:  you can make shares shared on a 'per user' basis  but i rarely do that
[14:22] <adifire> ikonia, Dr_Willis it's not for me it's for Geoni, but thanks neways!! :D
[14:22] <melchior> hello
[14:23] <Dr_Willis> The samba-doc/books re worth a read for all samba users :)
[14:24] <melchior> my pc(<IP_ADDRESS>) is connected to a switch(supposed to be <IP_ADDRESS>), which is connected to a dev board(<IP_ADDRESS>). From my pc i can ping the dev board, and in the other way, but i can't ping my switch ! How is that possible
[14:24] <melchior> knowing that I could days ago
[14:25] <Dr_Willis> melchior:  Hmm you mean a 'router'  - I didtnt think a switch had an ip.
[14:25] <lukjad86> is anyone here familiar with ksplice? I'm planning on writing an article on it and would like some documentation.
[14:25] <melchior> no it's a switch, but it has a webserver embedded in it for administration purpose
[14:26] <Dr_Willis> Hmm.. I have to wonder what admin stuff a switch needs.. or else the term 'switch' is being used a little too loosely
[14:26] <mwkorzen> Hello, This is my first use of IRC, do you know a channel about C++ programming?
[14:26] <Taruna> mas,,,
[14:27] <soreau> mwkorzen: /j ##c++
[14:27] <hal_9000_> welcome to the machine
[14:27] <melchior> it's a 16-port gigabit web smart switch
[14:27] <mwkorzen> thanks.
[14:27] <melchior> that writtent on the manual
[14:27] <opengyan> a newbie query ....the apt install would always store .deb file ?
[14:27] <opengyan> if yes where ?
[14:27] <melchior> is there a way to detect automatically the ip of cennected devices ?
[14:27] <Dr_Willis> melchior:  ewww.. a fancy smanchy high doller switch :)   I bet that cost more then the ones you get at walmart!
[14:28] <melchior> i don't know how much it costs, we had it at work
[14:28] <Geoni> thank's Dr_Willis, ikonia
[14:28] <Dr_Willis> melchior:  and you aquired it. some how. :)
[14:28] <koltroll> Heya guys. I'd like my bookmarks to show up right under "Places" so that I don't haft to do Places -> Bookmarks -> Bookmark. Is this possible?
[14:28] <melchior> im at work now, and using it
[14:29] <umang> opengyan, I'm guessing /var/cache/apt/archives
[14:29] <Dr_Willis> koltroll:  from what ive seen. if you have a small list of bookmarks it does show up right under places.. if you got more.. it makes a bookmarks menu to keep them in
[14:29] <opengyan> umang:thx
[14:30] <umang> opengyan, You welcome. :)
[14:30] <umang> *your
[14:30] <koltroll> Dr_Willis, Right you were! I removed some bookmarks and now it shows under "Places". Then it's all good for now, until I get more bookmarks :)
[14:30] <umang> *you're :P
[14:30] <koltroll> thanks
[14:30] <Dr_Willis> koltroll:  its auto-magical! :)
[14:30] <Dr_Willis> koltroll:  i add 4 more here and it goes to the submenu
[14:30] <opengyan> is there a list of packages which one has to install after a fresh installation ?
[14:31] <opengyan> specially for sw developer + music
[14:31] <Dr_Willis> Kottisen:  i saw a neat tool the other day that let you have a panel applet for shortcuts all over the place. for easy access.
[14:31] <umang> opengyan, "has to" would mean for functionality or for recovering your previous install?
[14:32] <opengyan> functionality
[14:32] <franco> Hello I want to know whether any programs similar to 'teamviewer' to ubuntu
[14:32] <Dr_Willis> Kottisen:  but i cant find its name/icon now. :()
[14:33] <umang> opengyan, Usually a fresh install would work well. ;) If you want to see what packages you've installed apart from the default (and without dependencies that confuse you), deborphan is a great program. Install it and try a deborphan -a. You'll get a list off all packages you've installed apart from the default.
[14:33] <DS1> how do you use directory GUI as sudo
[14:33] <umang> opengyan, I'm not sure if that was what you were looking for though...
[14:34] <umang> DS1, gksudo nautilus?
[14:34] <opengyan> umang: thx i would still give it a try
[14:34] <umang> opengyan, If that isn't what you are looking for, just let me know.
[14:35] <DS1> umang: what do you mean
[14:35] <Dr_Willis> Kottisen:  check out -> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/hawkscope-cross-platform-pluggable-menu-based-launcher.html
[14:35] <DS1> umang: i want to copy and paste stuff without using terminal but it keeps saying access denied
[14:36] <sidh> greetings gentlemen
[14:36] <umang> DS1, Yes. OK. So Press Alt+F2 and type gksudo nautilus. Use with care, you will not be told when you are going to delete something that you aren't supposed to.
[14:37] <DS1> umang: when  am finished what do i type to end?
[14:37] <blackxored> how can I know the amount of network usage for a particular past day in linux?
[14:37] <umang> DS1, Just close the window (as you normally would).
[14:38] <DS1> umang: thanks you i hated using terminal to do it
[14:38] <franco> hi. I need to know if there are any software similar to 'Team Viewer' to ubuntu
[14:38] <nastybaddy> hi, where do i go to modify sources.list
[14:38] <Dr_Willis> nastybaddy:  its a text file you can edit. or thers gui front ends to it
[14:38] <Dr_Willis> nastybaddy:  back it up befor you mess with it. :)
[14:38] <Dr_Willis> nastybaddy:  what are you wanting to do with it?
[14:39] <umang> DS1, You're welcome. Remember 1. be careful. 2. You will have super-user privileges only on the window that opens with that command and programs you open from that window.
[14:39] <sidh> i REALLY need your help, i have a laptop, with recent nvidia 310m chipset, i download the latest beta driver from ubuntu repositories, everything run fine for 2 hours , after that , i can move the mouse , but neither click nor keyboard actions are available, all i can do is ctrl alt Fn to get to console and reboot
[14:39] <sidh> i tried with nv driver, same problem
[14:39] <DS1> umang ok ty
[14:39] <nastybaddy> oh just wanted to add something
[14:39] <nastybaddy> but google gave me /etc/apt/sources.list thanks!
[14:39] <Dr_Willis> nastybaddy:  thers a better way to 'add' new repos.
[14:39] <zinox> i can[ t update grub because it got error >> grub-probe: error: Cannot stat `/boot/grub/locale'
[14:39] <sidh> so it doesn't seem to be nvidia drivers 's fault
[14:39] <sidh> do you think it could be hal ?
[14:39] <zinox> do anyone know how fix it?
[14:40] <Dr_Willis> nastybaddy:  thers an apt/sources.list.d/XXXXXXXX for that
[14:40] <indystorm> Hey is monkey web server included with ubuntu server installation?
[14:40] <vmarcetic> hello, I have zboard keyboard and my double v key is not working (w from virtual keyboard) can i add it (ascii) or smth
[14:40] <nastybaddy> oh i see..what about signing ??
[14:40] <Dr_Willis> nastybaddy:  that way your original sources.list stays untouched. and you just add new repos by making files in that dir
[14:40] <Dr_Willis> nastybaddy:  yoi still need to setup the proper keys
[14:41] <umang> Dr_Willis, nastybaddy Wouldn't "Software Sources" be the easy way to do it (GUI) ?
[14:41] <blackxored> how to get network usage reports for past few days in linux????
[14:42] <umang> indystorm, sudo apt-get install monkey
[14:42] <zinox> please help me
[14:42] <Taruna> oph dlu eah ...
[14:42] <zinox> you guys only help with noob questions about interface gnome? omg
[14:43] <indystorm> couldn't find package monkey....?
[14:43] <anarki2004> I need some assistance getting my compiz to function properly. I have a dual-display. Each display has its own x-screen. The cube works fine one one display. on the other, I just get a two sided desktop.
[14:43] <umang> zinox, Try repeating your question after a couple of minutes. Usually works for me. But make sure you wait for a few minutes before doing that.
[14:43] <Plouj> hi
[14:44] <umang> indystorm, ?
[14:44] <millertimek1a2m3> hey can anyone tell me how to get netbeans to work with gtkmm? i found this article-http://wiki.netbeans.org/GTKMMApplicationInNetBeans
[14:44] <millertimek1a2m3> but it sucks
[14:44] <indystorm> yeah it couldnt find the package monkey...?
[14:44] <millertimek1a2m3> none of the links in it even work....
[14:44] <millertimek1a2m3> so, if someone is willing to help me without posting a smart-a** lmgtfy
[14:45] <umang> indystorm, it works for me. Just a sec.
[14:45] <zinox> noobs
[14:45] <zinox> exits
[14:45] <zinox> exit
[14:46] <umang> indystorm, It's only post-intrepid. Which Ubuntu are you using?
[14:46] <umang> (hardy?)
[14:46] <devendra> have anyone installed db2
[14:46] <devendra> guide me
[14:47] <vmarcetic> hello, I have zboard keyboard and my double v key is not working (w from virtual keyboard) can i add it (ascii) or smth
[14:47] <devendra> I have installed it but could not use it?
[14:48] <umang> vmarcetic, Tried shaking your keyboard upside down and blowing near the w key?
[14:48] <vmarcetic> it is vorking on vindovs
[14:49] <anarki2004> I need some assistance getting my compiz to function properly. I have a dual-display. Each display has its own x-screen. The cube works fine one one display. on the other, I just get a two sided desktop.
[14:49] <iceroot> is there a way for something like this? apt-get update && apt-get upgrade CHECK && echo "new updates" || echo "no new updates"   i didnt find anything for testing if an update is availabe (and i dont need apticron)
[14:50] <umang> vmarcetic, That is odd. I'm sorry, I don't know enough to help you any further... If no one else responses in a couple of minutes, then you could try posting your question again.
[14:50] <anarki2004> 1400 people....i know one of you can answer my question...
[14:51] <vmarcetic> or perhapse if i knev vhere to find zboard drivers for linux
[14:51] <umang> anarki2004, You usually need to wait more than a minute before saying that. Also, if you don't get an answers, then try again after a couple of minutes. Still no reply then the forums might be a better place to ask.
[14:52] <iceroot> anarki2004: #compiz
[14:52] <anarki2004> umang: i asked several minutes ago actually. that was a repeat. I would check the forums, but I don't know what to look for.
[14:52] <vmarcetic> i actually found them on http://www.valdegames.com/pig/wordpress/2007/04/02/merc-zboard-%E2%80%9Cdriver%E2%80%9D-finished/ but that doesn't vork asvell
[14:52] <anarki2004> iceroot: i don't believe that is a support chan
[14:52] <detrix> Hello everyone.  This may not be the appropriate place for this question, but I don't know where else to start asking.  My wife got an email for someone who claims to be one of my wife's friends (who took a trip to scottland, got mugged, and asking for help, but my wife know for a fact her friend is not in scottland).  can one trace an IM chat to get a source IP??
[14:53] <tommis> anarki2004, why separate x
[14:53] <iceroot> anarki2004: find out because this is not the right place for compiz questions like that i guess
[14:53] <tommis> why you need two
[14:53] <umang> anarki2004, Then you could just post on the General help section.
[14:53] <lukjad86> detrix I would just file it under spam and ignore it
[14:53] <abhi_nav> detrix: contact nearby cyber crime department of police
[14:53] <soreau> anarki2004: If you read the #compiz topic, you would see that it is the official compiz support channel
[14:53] <anarki2004> tommis: so I can have seperate cubes
[14:53] <detrix> abhi_nav: thanks.
[14:53] <umang> iceroot, apt-get upgrade -s
[14:53] <iceroot> umang: and then?
[14:53] <anarki2004> soreau: maybe I misread, i took it as this is "not" support
[14:54] <iceroot> umang: i dont want to grep the output
[14:54] <soreau> anarki2004: Read again. That says  #compiz-dev is no user support
[14:54] <anarki2004> soreau: indeed
[14:54] <tommis> then you need two compiz proces
[14:54] <anarki2004> tommis: i have that
[14:54] <abhi_nav> detrix: read my pm
[14:54] <tommis> i don`t know how exavtly
[14:54] <umang> iceroot, sorry didn't catch you there. apt-get upgrade -s simulates an upgrade.
[14:55] <soreau> tommis: He already has two compiz processes, he just needs to config ccsm fro the second screen is all
[14:55] <tommis> soreau, i cot that already
[14:55] <iceroot> umang: i know but i want something like apt-get upgrade check-if-something-new && prog1 || prog2
[14:56] <inveratulo> I have a bizarre request:  Is it possible to have the UI terminal automatically renamed to the last command executed from within said terminal ?
[14:56] <king_pin> anyone ever run into bad hard disk sector errors, I have read the forums and am soo confused as to what is the issue
[14:56] <ukaszlobo> halo
[14:56] <umang> iceroot, I don't know of any other way. I guess you'll have to write a bash script, but I'm not expert, so there may be a better way.
[14:56] <iceroot> king_pin: broken hdd
[14:57] <ukaszlobo> jest kto??
[14:57] <Myrtti> !pl | ukaszlobo
[14:57] <king_pin> but I just bought a brand spanking new dell, what is a good utility to double check
[14:57] <king_pin> i have tried so many and yet it says everything is fine
[14:57] <iceroot> king_pin: smart, fsck and there was another i dont remeber
[14:58] <vmarcetic> king_ping: did you dropped laptop
[14:58] <vmarcetic> or has it fell from your table or smth like that
[14:59] <king_pin> no
[14:59] <king_pin> hahah
[14:59] <king_pin> maybe I should
[14:59] <iberna> hola
[15:00] <king_pin> fsck?
[15:00] <vmarcetic> no realy if it is brand new there is realy small possibility that you have bad sectors
[15:00] <king_pin> run that command in terminal? I am a total noob
[15:00] <vmarcetic> only if hdd is being smashed or smth lik that
[15:00] <Dr_Willis> king_pin:  is it a warning about the smart tool in ubuntu you are refering to?
[15:01] <x4d> hello, I'm having a hard time getting RSA keys in ssh working properly, I've looked at the guide and at the point of ssh-copy-id I get an error (no identeties), I'm confused wether I'm supposed to be generating the keys on my local machine that is going to connect to the remote server or the reverse?
[15:01] <Dr_Willis> inveratulo:  ive seen bash prompts/tricks that set the terminal title to be the name of the running command.
[15:01] <king_pin> I get an icon at the top task bar with "!" mark
[15:01] <peter_> anybody gets work middle button on two finger click on touchpad?
[15:01] <ron__> Hi im trying to set up a wifi hotspot with a billing system for work, anybody got any ideas on what software to use?
[15:01] <king_pin> The ID is 197, someone on the forum said ignore the bad sector but I worry
[15:01] <inveratulo> Dr_Willis: yea i just found one for zsh
[15:01] <Dr_Willis> king_pin:  I find that tool to be a little bit - overzelous in its warnings.
[15:02] <Dr_Willis> king_pin:  so take the warnings as a warning.. not as a impending doom.. but always have backups
[15:02] <king_pin> oh snap
[15:02] <Dr_Willis> inveratulo:  i recall  some bash propmts that did it also. but i dont recall how. of if it worked with all terms or just xterm
[15:03] <peter_> anyone?
[15:03] <king_pin> its interesting how some people call it a bug and some hd error. Seems rather vague. However a bug report is opened up for it
[15:03] <Dr_Willis> king_pin:  Mine gives me a warnign because i have like 1 over the 'limit' of what it says is ok.. but the seagate tools scan and say the drive is fine. Just rember that hard drives are basically the least reliable part of a PC these days
[15:04] <greenfuji> Hello All. I am having trouble with remote desktop. I have a number of pcs all running ubuntu 9.10 all updated. Each pc has a unique ip. When I try and connect it gives an error "connection closed". I also have an iphone ap hipporemote and it will not connect to any of the pcs. This ap also used vnc to connect. Any ideas please?
[15:04] <king_pin> true say
[15:04] <vmarcetic> anyone haves zboard keyboard????
[15:04] <king_pin> the seagate tool, can it be downloaded for ubuntu?
[15:04] <Dr_Willis> king_pin:  i ran it on windows. no idea if they got a linux port.. proberly they dont
[15:04] <king_pin> i will load up in windows and run it
[15:05] <Slydon> Is there a program I can use to clean bad sectors off my hard disk?
[15:05] <vmarcetic> no you can only "relocate them"
[15:06] <beartato> the adobe flash-plugin is really slow for me using ubuntu 9.10 and firefox. from what I've read on different forusm there does not seem to be a fix for that? or am I missing something here?
[15:06] <Dr_Willis> Slydon:  there no 'cleaning/fixing' of them. :)  like vmarcetic  said
[15:06] <vmarcetic> make OS not to see them
[15:06] <king_pin> i miss my apple osx
[15:06] <Slydon> vmarcetic: okay then, how can i move them, preferably to the end of the drive
[15:06] <Dr_Willis> king_pin:  i miss my AMIGA i had in college...
[15:06] <Dr_Willis> I was thinking most hd's these days see/auto move the bad sectors anyway.
[15:07] <Dr_Willis> and flag them as bad.. then the smart tools see/monitor how many have been flagged
[15:07] <king_pin> when I runk sudo fsck it says that it will cause severe damage
[15:07] <king_pin> interesting
[15:07] <king_pin> *run
[15:07] <Dr_Willis> king_pin:  you dont fsck a mounted filesystem
[15:07] <vmarcetic> you will need some kind of program for "relocating" them. what hdd do you have? maxtor, seagate... etc
[15:07] <king_pin> oh snap
[15:07] <king_pin> did I just kill my drive
[15:07] <king_pin> ahhahaa
[15:07] <Slydon> to be honest, I do not know
[15:08] <king_pin> i got a samsung hm160h1
[15:08] <Dr_Willis> king_pin:  i always use live cd's if i need to fsck stuff. or let it auto fsck
[15:08] <erUSUL> !man badblocks
[15:08] <Slydon> fujitsu I suppose
[15:08] <king_pin> my seatools passes the drive for smart check
[15:08] <king_pin> god damn ubuntu :(
[15:09] <Dr_Willis> king_pin:   woopdee dooo.. ubuntu is just saying it has X # of bad blocks which is over the # it considers safe.. igniore the warning if you want
[15:09] <king_pin> warnings gimme the heebee jeebees
[15:09] <vmarcetic> i don't know how to check that on linux (on widnows with everest perhapse). you can see who produced it.
[15:09] <Dr_Willis> king_pin:  seagate MIGHT be saying its ok.. because they dont want to have it returned under warrenty.. think about that also
[15:10] <king_pin> that is true, i just got my rails apps on here anyways
[15:10] <greenfuji> Any help with remote desktop? I set it up as per instructions, which was very easy in ubuntu but each ip shows as connection closed.
[15:10] <king_pin> oh snao
[15:10] <king_pin> hey Doc
[15:10] <king_pin> stop mesin with ma head
[15:10] <Dr_Willis> king_pin:  if data is worth having.. its worth BACKING UP..
[15:10] <king_pin> i am getting paranoid
[15:10] <king_pin> hahahaha
[15:10] <king_pin> OH SNAP
[15:10] <FloodBot4> king_pin: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[15:19] <fishie> well Das
[15:19] <greerasu> hy

[15:19] <jakiw> How do I zip files?
[15:20] <fishie> so i can perform damn fsck
[15:20] <_UsUrPeR_> is there a modern version of preseed with a different name available?
[15:20] <DasEi> fishie: that will only work by a reboot then, check your grubs recoverymode
[15:21] <DasEi> fishie: you want to do a fs-check ?
[15:21] <manas> When i am using internet explorer why does the browser turn dark after a few sec and then dissappear
[15:21] <jakiw> How do I zip files?
[15:21] <Nitsuga> _EagleScreen_, having 4GB of ram souldn't be a problem. Try using noacpi and nolapic in the F6 menu in the CD's boot menu
[15:21] <Pici> fishie: sudo touch /forcefsck     then reboot
[15:21] <Nitsuga> or use a 64-bit version of Ubuntu
[15:21] <abhi_nav> jakiw: right click on them and select create archieves
[15:21] <DasEi> !zip | jakiw
[15:21] <soreau> manas: Because you are using the wrong browser
[15:21] <soreau> manas: use firefox instead
[15:21] <abhi_nav> he dont mean how to open zip files he means how to create zip files
[15:22] <manas> i need internet explorer to take my classes online
[15:22] <DasEi> !browser | manas
[15:22] <fishie> but the thing is

[15:27] <DasEi> Ssmario: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide
[15:27] <[Nitsuga]> fishie, you can force a remount of / with Alt-Print Screen-U, but do that only if you know what you are doing
[15:28] <[Nitsuga]> it will remount r/o
[15:28] <DasEi> Kartagis: give url from trml here
[15:28] <Ssmario> DasEi: thanks
[15:28] <nibbler> Kartagis: seems like it does not recognize the mass storage adapter, u use default kernel?

[15:30] <DasEi> shyam_k: wrong channel, ask in #hardware
[15:30] <shyam_k> already did.. waiting on both.. i thought there would be something os depended to "enable" something like double channel or whatever..
[15:31] <shyam_k> memtest too said about 884 only though..
[15:31] <shyam_k> hmm.. ok..
[15:31] <jad> anyone here used motion ?

[15:42] <Ssmario> DasEi: ok i will check, thanks again
[15:43] <DasEi> Ssmario: If you want to let's meet there, another way is super-grub-disk, google it , use a version below 1 (grub, not grub2) then

[15:48] <Pici> mikebeecham: Install the network-manager-pptp package, you may need to restart network-manager service afterwards.
[15:48] <PingFloyd> Ssmario: that would be sda4
[15:48] <DasEi> manas: way to go 1) backup current mbr 2) shrink ubuntu  3) format or un-allocate to windows readable 4) re-write mbr 5) add xp to grub

[15:50] <vmarcetic> anyone knows about key binding in ubuntu???
[15:50] <DasEi> !burn | phh45
[15:50] <Dr_Willis> vmarcetic:  ask a more specific question and see perhaps.
[15:50] <PingFloyd> Ssmario: that's probably why it couldn't find the stage1
[15:50] <PingFloyd> Ssmario: because of your root reference being off
[15:50] <Allucard> DasEi: yes dual boot, doesn't show any error and yes i tried safemode, live cd, live usb and nothing worke
[15:51] <Allucard> worked

[15:52] <Ssmario> PingFloyd: ok i will try with an old liveCD
[15:53] <DasEi> Allucard: if you boot a live cd, did you try to chroot in the sys ?
[15:53] <Myrtti> athunye: you've basically "voided your warranty" of Ubuntu by enabling root account. was there a reason for doing it and could you consider reverting it?
[15:53] <Allucard> DasEi: yes i tried everything
[15:53] <PingFloyd> ubuntu doesn't have a warranty
[15:53] <Allucard> DasEithe screen goes black all the time
[15:54] <Allucard> DasEi: the screen goes black all the time
[15:54] <DasEi> ;-), PingFloyd

[15:54] <Allucard> yes
[15:54] <Dr_Willis> Allucard:  see #puppylinux
[15:54] <Dr_Willis> :)
[15:54] <autoclesis> !seamonkey
[15:54] <DasEi> Allucard: so it's a hardware-related problem then
[15:54] <athunye> Myrtti: I just wanted to try it. Alread disabled it.
[15:55] <DasEi> Allucard: pc specs ?
[15:55] <Myrtti> athunye: and did the applications start to accept the user password as sudo password then?
[15:55] <athunye> Myrtti: Yes.
[15:55] <Myrtti> athunye: good. that's the expected behaviour
[15:56] <Lord-Readman> what do people think of http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/23594/ ?
[15:56] <athunye> Myrtti: Thanks anyway.
[15:56] <DasEi> Allucard: also did you verify your iso-downlaod and checked the cd by it's onboard-tool ? try cd on another box ?
[15:56] <king_pin> ok so finally re-installed vista and then gonna try to install ubuntu again
[15:57] <Lord-Readman> king_pin, you should try install ubuntu first so it is at the beginning of the disk
[15:57] <Allucard> DasEi: ACPI x86-based PC, Mobile intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family, Processor intel core 2 duo t7100
[15:57] <CoffeeIV> I have a new install of ubuntu, I install apache and mysql and php and etc, and did the a2enmod php5, but when I go to a php file in the browser it still tries to download it instead of running it
[15:58] <Allucard> DasEi: what more do you need???
[15:58] <DasEi> Allucard: so  ultracommon, then most likely cd or cdrom bad
[15:58] <OerHeks> Lord-Readman, vista does not install as 2nd OS, it want's total control over HDD.
[15:58] <DasEi> !md5 | Allucard
[15:58] <Lord-Readman> OerHeks, I will bare that in mind for the future then
[15:59] <PingFloyd> using easybcd will make your dual boot life easier
[15:59] <autoclesis> why would someone run a ram-only OS
[15:59] <autoclesis> like puppy
[15:59] <autoclesis> i don't get the usefulness of that
[15:59] <Allucard> DasEi: they ship the cd to me and i have download a new iso from the website too
[15:59] <autoclesis> dracula, do you know?
[15:59] <OerHeks> after install, you can easy decrease the partition to install ubuntu, use the intergraded diskmanagment in vista. ( also for win7 )
[16:00] <DasEi> Allucard: did the test on cd, too ?
[16:00] <Lord-Readman> OerHeks, even if you create a partition for vista at the end of the disk? wont vista install their and then just reinstall grup to restore the MBR?
[16:00] <Sh3r1ff> CoffeeIV: did you add "AddType text/html php" in your httpd.conf?
[16:00] <OerHeks> something to do with the hidden partition with restore files.
[16:00] <Sunight> Salut
[16:00] <Allucard> DasEi: yes i tried it on my father laptop and it worked

[16:04] <Allucard> DasEi: the card is the same as my father's

[16:05] <DasEi> Allucard: usb install didin't work ? how did you make it ?
[16:05] <Abu-3dnan> I have an ubuntu karmic, I want to make it boot to runlevel 3, what shuld I do?
[16:06] <ibuclaw> Abu-3dnan, runlevel 2-5 are all the same runlevels.
[16:06] <Allucard> usb i only tried live
[16:06] <DasEi> Abu-3dnan: sudo init 3
[16:06] <Allucard> DasEi: usb i only tried live
[16:06] <DasEi> Allucard: verified stick is running on another box ?
[16:06] <jonzbcc> ibuclaw: DasEi do you know how to cahgne the run level permanently for every reboot? (I've always wanted to know, myself)
[16:06] <Abu-3dnan> DasEi, i need to do it from grub
[16:07] <Allucard> DasEi: what???
[16:07] <Pici> mikebeecham: I'm sorry, I have very little experience connecting to vpns.  I had a similar problem getting the 'add' button to appear for my employer's cisco vpn, so I knew there was an additional package that needed to be installed.
[16:07] <asdrubaleee> salve a tutti
[16:07] <DasEi> Allucard: did you try the usb on another pc ?
[16:07] <ibuclaw> jonzbcc, old Linux systems used /etc/inittab
[16:07] <Pici> !it | asdrubaleee
[16:07] <robinle> Anyone have some experience with quota on karmic? My root partition seems to be mounted as ext2 but fstab says it's supposed to be ext3??
[16:07] <Allucard> right know i don't remenber
[16:07] <jonzbcc> ibuclaw: so I take it we'd be fiddling with upstart or something?
[16:07] <DasEi> jonzbcc: it's rc.d, I think
[16:08] <Allucard> DasEi: right know i don't remenber
[16:08] <ibuclaw> jonzbcc, actually - I lie - several systems still use inittab today :)
[16:08] <wrwarwick> Any one good with getting compiz to work?
[16:08] <jonzbcc> ibuclaw: yes, there are quite a few (upstart's rather new)
[16:08] <mikebeecham> Pici: thanks anyway!
[16:08] <erUSUL> robinle: check « cat /proc/mounts »
[16:08] <jonzbcc> DasEi: I thought rc.d was a BSD style thing?
[16:09] <rethus> if i start my desktop, i have first do go to firestarter and click on "Start Firewall" ... if i didn't do so, i have no internet connection... this wasn't before i try out guarddog... can anybody tell me where the problem could be?
[16:09] <Xcell> this is ridiculous  , why does the cdrom quit playing and or seeing cd 5 mins after boot, and fstab is ok, what causes this  ?
[16:09] <mikebeecham> is there anyone here who would be able to help me set up a VPN on Karmic?  I have experiencing connection  issues
[16:09] <DasEi> Allucard: looks to me like a faulty cdrom, and usb-lives need some practice to be set up properly, you can use unetbooting from windows , md5sum the iso, then check stick on another box, re.try
[16:09] <robinle> erUSUL: /dev/root / ext2 rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 0
[16:09] <DasEi> jonzbcc: linux is very familiar
[16:09] <erUSUL> robinle: post your fstab ...
[16:09] <wasutton3_> is there a relatively easy way to turn a logfile into a webpage?
[16:10] <jonzbcc> does anyone have experience with adding to their manpath??
[16:10] <Allucard> DasEi: ok i will try that
[16:10] <rethus>  if i start my desktop, i have first do go to firestarter and click on "Start Firewall" ... if i didn't do so, i have no internet connection... this wasn't before i try out guarddog... can anybody tell me where the problem could be?
[16:10] <jonzbcc> wasutton3_: you could just serve that file. or if you're not too huge on security (maybe its an intranet) you can just symlink to the file from inside of your webroot
[16:10] <robinle> erUSUL: /dev/xvda2      /             ext3     defaults,errors=remount-ro,usrjquota=aquota.user,grpjquota=aquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0 0 0
[16:10] <robinle> proc            /proc         proc     defaults                   0 0
[16:10] <robinle> devpts          /dev/pts      devpts   gid=5,mode=620             0 0
[16:10] <Abu-3dnan> DasEi, how can I tell ubuntu not to run X on boot time?
[16:11] <robinle> I only added "usrjquota=aquota.user,grpjquota=aquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0"
[16:11] <Dr_Willis> Abu-3dnan:  disable the gdm service
[16:11] <jonzbcc> Abu-3dnan: it doesn't run X (unless its a live CD) -- it runs XDM (a login manager)
[16:11] <Pici> Abu-3dnan: sudo update-rc.d gdm remove
[16:11] <wasutton3_> jonzbcc: will it constantly update? or will it just be a static page that i will have to reload?
[16:11] <erUSUL> robinle: very weird ... what type of device is /dev/xvda2 ?
[16:11] <Abu-3dnan> ty all
[16:11] <ibuclaw> jonzbcc, had a quick look, Debian uses /etc/init.d/rc to control runlevel scripts. Ubuntu uses /etc/init/rc.conf to interface to it.
[16:12] <jonzbcc> wasutton3_: well, I suggestd two separate options. which one are you talking about?
[16:12] <Dr_Willis> I think 9.10 uses Upstart to start GDM.
[16:12] <robinle> erUSUL: well it's a virtual disk in a XEN vps
[16:12] <DasEi> Abu-3dnan: boot safemode
[16:12] <ibuclaw> jonzbcc, but how these scripts get started in the first place is done by /sbin/init
[16:12] <DasEi> Abu-3dnan: or permanently remove gdm
[16:12] <ibuclaw> (which is started by the Linux kernel itself)
[16:12] <wasutton3_> jonzbcc: i think i would encounter the same problem with either
[16:12] <jonzbcc> ibuclaw: (you meant _used_ rc.conf?)
[16:13] <jonzbcc> !symlink | jonzbcc
[16:13] <erUSUL> robinle: ok; really dunno what can be the problem. i would check boot up messages if possible
[16:13] <robinle> erUSUL: I've only got remote access
[16:13] <robinle> are these logged?
[16:13] <ibuclaw> jonzbcc, _uses_ - the rc.conf is part of upstart's interface
[16:13] <DasEi> mana ?
[16:14] <erUSUL> robinle: check /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog
[16:14] <arvind_khadri> robinle, yes, /var/log/syslog
[16:14] <jonzbcc> wasutton3_: (i was testing if the bot could tell you about symlinks) -- sym links are like shortcuts to the actual file. so you if you add a symlink inside of your webroot (that points to the actual log file) then its the _actual_ file -- there is not updating it.
[16:14] <wasutton3_> jonzbcc: i know, but what i want is like a live feed on the web page without having to reboot
[16:14] <wasutton3_> *refresh
[16:14] <ZykoticK9> Abu-3dnan, if you are using Karmic and want to disable GDM from starting you can use "sudo mv /etc/init/gdm.conf  /etc/init/gdm.conf-disabled" - to undo just reverse
[16:14] <jonzbcc> ibuclaw: hmm, I don't see an rc.conf on this machine, lol
[16:15] <Jalel`> hello how can invite me in java channel
[16:15] <robinle> alright let's have a look
[16:15] <DasEi> manas ?
[16:15] <Pici> !register | Jalel` you must be registered to join ##java
[16:16] <DasEi> Jalel`: is your nick registered ?
[16:16] <jonzbcc> wasutton3_: that's an ajaxy-ish sounding feature. (not really -- i take that back) -- you'd simply need a (and this is my hack -- maybe there's a better way) - a tiny bit of javascript on page to reload the particular section in the html document every x-seconds (10/15 w/e)
[16:16] <ibuclaw> jonzbcc, in /etc/init directory? :)
[16:16] <Jalel`> yes it's registred
[16:16] <peppo> hi. is anyone building epiphany-webkit 2.29x for jaunty?
[16:16] <robinle> Feb 23 09:55:25 vps445 kernel: EXT2-fs warning (device xvda2): ext2_fill_super: mounting ext3 filesystem as ext2
[16:16] <robinle> Feb 23 09:55:25 vps445 kernel: VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly on device 202:2.
[16:16] <DasEi> Jalel`: /join ##java
[16:16] <jonzbcc> ibuclaw: oh, I thought you said /etc/init.d/ (this is a nastily hektic forum) -- did I spell hectic right?
[16:17] <erUSUL> !register | Jalel`
[16:17] <mikebeecham> I am seeing "connection failed" error messages when trying to set up a VPN...can anyone help?
[16:17] <wasutton3_> jonzbcc: thats what i was thinking too, seems to be a little bit easier to manage than a completely different program
[16:17] <DasEi> manas ?
[16:18] <robinle> erUSUL or arvind_khadri : any idea what might be causing this?
[16:19] <jonzbcc> wasutton3_: you should read up on symlinking though -- its fairly unsafe. a better way would be to have a "tmp_copy_log" sitting in side the web root, and that tmp file would be overwritten frequently by a cronned script (a _very_ simple script) that just cats the contents of the original log into the temp
[16:19] <arvind_khadri> robinle, has the fs on xvda properly setup ? try running a fsck on it, and then mount
[16:19] <ibuclaw> jonzbcc, no probs. Here is a more indepth link for you :) http://snow.nl/dist/xhtmlc/ch02.html
[16:19] <arvind_khadri> !vpn > arvind_khadri
[16:19] <jonzbcc> ibuclaw: thanks :)
[16:20] <arvind_khadri> !vpn | mikebeecham , does that help ??
[16:20] <manas> hi dasie
[16:20] <robinle> arvind_khadri: I should probably unmount it first then?
[16:20] <arvind_khadri> robinle, yeah...
[16:20] <Jalel`> I need an invitation for java channél thinks;)
[16:20] <ibuclaw> jonzbcc, that describes the boot process down to which Linux source file is being used - from the Linux kernel forking the 'init' appliation, the rest is distribution specific (ie: upstart, rc, inittab, etc) ;)
[16:20] <manas> sorry.. are you there
[16:20] <DasEi> manas: yep, third try worked
[16:20] <jonzbcc> manpaths -- anyone have experience with manpaths -- i'd like to add to mine, but its not working. (sorry for those who've already read this, i'm hoping some new ppl are in this channel now)
[16:21] <manas> Ok sorry for that
[16:21] <manas> where do i start
[16:21] <DasEi> manas: let's meet in #grub, less crowded, better specialized there
[16:21] <manas> wht is # grub
[16:21] <DasEi> manas: /j #grub in your messenger
[16:22] <jonzbcc> can anyone suggest another general purpose linux channel?
[16:22] <wasutton3_> jonzbcc: i was instead planning on just having a cron job copy/ overwrite the file every minute or so
[16:22] <DasEi> jonzbcc: ##linux
[16:22] <jonzbcc> DasEi: -- i feel dumb now
[16:22] <DasEi> nah,
[16:22] <robinle> arvind_khadri: it's not letting me unmount since a bunch of services are running of it
[16:22] <greenfuji> can someone tell me how to check if something was blocking one computer from seeing another and hence not being able to remote desktop to it?
[16:22] <jonzbcc> wasutton3_: right, that's what I just said
[16:22] <manas> how to log into that
[16:22] <robinle> anyway to force unmount it and kill everything but openssh?
[16:23] <manas> do you have gmail
[16:23] <DasEi> manas: /j #grub in your messenger
[16:23] <arvind_khadri> robinle, is it a root device on the other machine?
[16:23] <robinle> it's the root device of this vps, however I have no access outside of the vps
[16:23] <wasutton3_> jonzbcc: i see. i got about a billion lines flying past me here
[16:25] <jonzbcc>  wasutton3_ :) hope it works for you
[16:26] <arvind_khadri> robinle, just restart the machine, before doing that just do << touch /forcefsck >>
[16:27] <jonzbcc> wasutton3_: actually, new thought: instead of burdening your machine with a constant cron (when people might not even be visiting the web page) -- you can make a plain html doc, with a frame inside of it -- have the frame inside be an actual php doc in the same directory. Now, the outter frame will have javscript that will reload the php doc inside the frame every x seconds. this way all the fetching/copying/pasting is done by a php doc -- a
[16:27] <Allucard> DasEi: sorry about that i run out of battery
[16:27] <robinle> okay thx, any idea how long it will take on a 1.5 gig partition?
[16:27] <arvind_khadri> robinle, lol, maybe few mins, depends it is clean or not :)
[16:28] <robinle> arvind_khadri: it's fresh as a daisy, OS has been installe about 2 hours ago :)
[16:28] <arvind_khadri> robinle, then its just a matter of few mins, neways it all depends...
[16:29] <king_pin> whats a good tool to do low level format
[16:29] <wasutton3_> jonzbcc: its only going to be me viewing it (my school has an ultra restrictive firewall which i cant even vnc with)
[16:29] <ibuclaw> king_pin, partition format? fdisk.
[16:30] <king_pin> i am just trying to format my dell completely and start from scratch
[16:30] <jonzbcc> wasutton3_: right, so -- only you, why have a cron constantly running for one viewer
[16:30] <wasutton3_> jonzbcc: that sounds significantly easier. my coworkers ought to be able to help
[16:30] <wasutton3_> jonzbcc: true
[16:30] <jonathan_> hello! I'm using kubuntu but I think it's the same for ubuntu: Do you know a nice tutorial about how to setup apache and mysql to run a website on the local server? I need PHP,MySql and PhpMyAdmin... I've read that using lampp is useless with the packages provided by the ubuntu team. thanks in advance! :)
[16:30] <arvind_khadri> king_pin, cfdisk ...
[16:30] <Laa_mas_Guapa> OLaaa
[16:31] <Laa_mas_Guapa> hola
[16:31] <wasutton3_> jonathan_: google is your friend
[16:31] <phh45> DasEi: gnome-baker crashed many times. Growisofs failed with i/o-error (okey, the iso was larger than 4 GB). But in the mean time I was _quick enough_ to hit burn button in Nautilus iso-burning (I had burned a couple of isos to my disk for testing purposes) after inserting again and again the DVD+RW. Very good trick! :)
[16:31] <erUSUL> !es | Laa_mas_Guapa
[16:31] <ibuclaw> king_pin, if security is not of the essence. fdisk should do to setup the partition table. Then you can use mkfs to format the partition into the filesystem you want.
[16:31] <jonzbcc> jonathan_: using lamp probably isn't useless - but its uber easy, here's the tutorial: go to synaptic package manager
[16:31] <jonathan_> yes i know
[16:32] <ibuclaw> king_pin, if you prefer easy - use gparted instead.
[16:32] <jonzbcc> jonathan_: then check off "install" for the following packages: 'mysql-server' 'php5' 'apache2' 'phpmyadmin' -- during the install process you'll be asked questions (primarily what psasword you'd like to use) -- that's it.
[16:32] <robinle> arvind_khadri: it might have just died on me :D
[16:32] <jonzbcc> jonathan_: then you can go to your web browser and type: http://localhost/ and you should get a, "it works!" page. if so, you can find that html document in /var/www/index.html
[16:33] <arvind_khadri> robinle, hahaha, what happened?
[16:33] <jonathan_> yes I've got all the packages and the things you said, but i need some infos on how to configure (mainly apache) the server now.
[16:33] <robinle> well my vps panel says it's powerd up
[16:33] <jonathan_> aah ok.
[16:33] <robinle> however ssh is dead
[16:33] <robinle> refused connection
[16:34] <jonathan_> could you tell me please, where the config file for apache lies? I mean where i can configure the default path to the web-directory?
[16:34] <jonzbcc> jonathan_: so you're serving okay right now? -- to configure apache you can edit the files in /etc/apache2 (primarily apache.conf file) -- and also play with modules for apache with: a2enmod
[16:34] <arvind_khadri> robinle, yeah it will be dead :) you need to wait till the system goes up :) ...be patient
[16:34] <jonathan_> thank you very much :)
[16:34] <gregg> hi all - WEIRD problem here. I run ubuntu karmic as a media server where all my mp3's are, the locale is en_DK.UTF-8 - right now I'm on my Kubuntu karmic laptop, same locale as the server, but samba'ing to my mp3 folder shows question marks instead of utf-8 characters. Any idea what the problem could be?
[16:34] <robinle> arvind_khadri: you think it will recover from this?
[16:35] <jonzbcc> jonathan_: this is always been my best resource, the actual apache documentation: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/configuring.html
[16:35] <arvind_khadri> robinle, just a guess...not sure...
[16:35] <robinle> hehe okay, I'll give it some time :)
[16:35] <ibuclaw> robinle, can the server be pinged ?
[16:35] <erUSUL> gregg: probably samba is messing things up. see what options are used to mount/export the samba shares ?
[16:35] <jonzbcc> jonathan_: i missed your question before, in order to configure the default path, I usually do the following (but you should backup these files first, as I do this purely as something i figured out, not because I ever read it was the right wayto do it) -- :
[16:36] <robinle> arvind_khadri: ooh it does respond to ping
[16:36] <gregg> erUSUL: hmmm just mount -t cifs
[16:36] <arvind_khadri> robinle, yeah, but the ssh service needs to be up to connect to it...
[16:36] <gregg> erUSUL: that's probably bad, right? ;)
[16:36] <erUSUL> gregg: probably you need to pass an apropiate nls option
[16:37] <jonzbcc> jonathan_: I go to /etc/apache2 then I run: grep -ir 'var/www' ./*    -- this will should you all the occurances of the string "var/www" in all the available config files. then you can edit those files with your favorite editor (eg.: gksu gedit ./apache2.conf, or sudo vi ./apache2.conf) -- then use your editor to replace all the instances of /var/www with /your/new/path -- remember BACKUP these files before you edit them (maybe, simply copy
[16:38] <mattish> hello
[16:38] <gregg> erUSUL: sounds about right - you know what I need to do off the top of your head while i'm googling? ;)
[16:38] <jonzbcc> jonathan_: finally, you have to restart apache for the effects to take place, so type: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[16:38] <mattish> Daft question, I dont appear to have a /dev/ entry for my parellel port :| not sure why
[16:38] <badkarma13> hi all
[16:38] <jonathan_> thank you, i have to restart my system so also goodbye...
[16:38] <jonathan_> and thanks again ;)
[16:39] <mattish> the lp and parport modules are loaded but no device?
[16:39] <erUSUL> gregg: i checked the mount.cifs man page can not find such ptions...
[16:39] <arvind_khadri> mattish, they are created dynamically i guess....udev :)
[16:39] <mattish> wonder why it hasnt created one then ? :|
[16:39] <DeathCrawler> my ctrl+alt+fn dont work, what can do?
[16:40] <autoclesis> what is the point of a ram-only distro like puppy
[16:40] <mattish> is it just /dev/port ?
[16:40] <erUSUL> autoclesis: puppy can be installed
[16:40] <autoclesis> so it's 'lightness' is the appeal ?
[16:41] <ubuntufreak> #lugradio
[16:41] <erUSUL> mattish: /dev/lp0
[16:41] <autoclesis> its
[16:41] <autoclesis> TY erusul
[16:41] <gregg> erUSUL: it's ok - i think i need to check out my smb.conf - the problem might be there
[16:41] <robinle> arvind_khadri: still dead, I'll force reboot it though the CP
[16:41] <erUSUL> gregg: ok; good luck. im not samba expert myself :)
[16:41] <Staapaavandski> How can I see if my wifi card is installed?
[16:42] <cordor> hdparm -tT readings is lot slower in ubuntu than qpartd cd
[16:42] <Noooo> Help me :( i'm getting these errors on one of my mounted NTFS externals ''Error removing file: Input/output error'' .......  error only appears in the main folder if i try to change the folders, but if i double click a folder, i can do all sort of changes there. Tried to unmount, restart, etc. Nothing. Is my disk failing ? :((((
[16:42] <badkarma13> can anyone tell me if i can setup a domain server for win 7 with ubuntu server edition?
[16:42] <cordor> how do it fix it?
[16:42] <erUSUL> Staapaavandski: do a wlan0 appears on your « iwconfig » output
[16:42] <arvind_khadri> robinle, ok
[16:42] <gregg> erUSUL: neither am i ;)
[16:42] <meganerd> Noooo: yes the disk is failing
[16:42] <mattish> erUSUL, I have no /dev/lp0 :(
[16:42] <Noooo> But it's one year old meganerd .... what should i do ?
[16:43] <Staapaavandski> erUSUL: Yes, with a lot of info....
[16:43] <erUSUL> mattish: /dev/parport0 ?
[16:43] <mattish> nope :(!
[16:44] <erUSUL> Staapaavandski: then the wifi card is up and running
[16:44] <meganerd> Noooo: it does not matter how old the drive is
[16:44] <Staapaavandski> erUSUL: Ok, thanks....
[16:44] <seanbrystone> how would i autostart a .sh script at log in?
[16:44] <mattish> erUSUL, I dont appear to have a device, I know the device has one, as in the standard install of linux it has a /dev/parport0
[16:44] <mattish> but under ubuntu i dont get a parport device in /dev :(
[16:44] <erUSUL> mattish: sudo modprobe parport
[16:45] <erUSUL> mattish: is for a printer?
[16:45] <mattish> its for an lcd
