[14:00] <soreau> jonathan__: Ah in karmic it is not linux-restricted-modules
[14:00] <yang> ehm, strange debootstrap will show "squeeze/sid" in /etc/version and "deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu karmic main" in /etc/apt/sources.list
[14:00] <yang> actually, I debootstrapped -- -d karmic -m http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
[14:01] <jonathan__> soreau: ugh... this is SOOOOO over my head :(
[14:01] <jonathan__> soreau: ok, so what do I do?
[14:01] <neezer> llutz: dlna is digital liviing network something or other....and mediatomb is a mediaserver app that serves up media files to various devices like a ps3...
[14:01] <neezer> thanks though.
[14:01] <IpSe_DiXiT> hello everyone, everytime i put a cd/dvd into my dvd player the pc restarts, i run ubuntu 8.10, any clue? thanks
[14:02] <soreau> jonathan__: Well if you installed the modaliaes packages and they are not showing in the list, start reinstalling the packages you originally removed when you did dpkg -l|grep nvidia (hint: use the up arrow key in your terminal)
[14:02] <mtaftm> i swear theres a way you can start a cam program in terminal
[14:02] <aaron11> How do I share my screen on skype'
[14:02] <jonathan__> soreau: *Sigh*  I only did one version, should I do all versions of the modalias packages?
[14:03] <mfilenko> bullgard, is there an option or it does it by default?
[14:03] <soreau> jonathan__: Well whatever version you do should show in the list, but you probably want to install the ones that were showing up in the list before
[14:04] <mtaftm> soreau: is there a commend in terminal to start a webcam program
[14:04] <jonathan__> soreau: ok, I did one of them, I will do the other as well :( this shouldn't be this difficult :(
[14:04] <aaron11> How do I share my screen on skype'
[14:04] <soreau> mtaftm: Like cheese? You can just run it in the terminal
[14:04] <mtaftm> yh but theres a built in command :/
[14:04] <soreau> jonathan__: Sorry, I am more of an ati guy ;)
[14:04] <neezer> how can I determine my primary and secondary dns for setting up a static ip on a device?
[14:04] <McL0VIN> Good Morning wonderful guys
[14:04] <aaron11> please just answer to me
[14:05] <brute> good morning
[14:05] <llutz> neezer: cat /etc/resolv.conf to get the current
[14:05] <shuuIRC> Hi guys, I got some issues with permissions.. it's my first time using Ubuntu so I could use some help
[14:05] <Scott_Puopolo1> how can i look at startup text during boot instead of splash screens? i'm trying to determine where the startup process is hanging.
[14:06] <McL0VIN> Can someone please explain to me what mounting mean?! why to mount ? How to mount etc...
[14:06] <iPeter-> hey how do i disable mouse n stuff on x11vnc
[14:06] <neezer> llutz: will it be the same for all devices on my network....i'm setting up my ps3 to have a static ip, so i'd run the command on my laptop.
[14:06] <bassogigas> McL0VIN, it's like you plug your device to system
[14:06] <ousmane86> hello
[14:06] <llutz> McL0VIN: mount = connecting filesystem to the system
[14:06] <bassogigas> like you plug-in phones
[14:06] <llutz> neezer: they should be same for all
[14:06] <neezer> great! thanks a lot llutz
[14:06] <llutz> neezer: most likely your routers-ip
[14:07] <IdleOne> aaron11: try asking on the skype forums
[14:07] <Hew> I just changed my user password, now when I restart I can still only login with my old password, but everything is broken, I get errors and only the karmic background. Any ideas?
[14:07] <iPeter-> I mean how do i only monitor a x11vnc
[14:07] <mtaftm> my webcam ID is 046d:0896 how can i find a driver?
[14:07] <aaron11> IdleOne: Any better answer?
[14:07] <McL0VIN> bassogigas: ok, thats what confuses me... e.g HDD is already plugged on my system
[14:07] <bullgard> McL0VIN: read 'man mount'. But this is for advanced learners.
[14:07] <llutz> McL0VIN: how to mount, read "man mount"
[14:07] <aaron11> IdleOne: A web page or anything
[14:07] <shuuIRC> I need have permissions to add and remove files from folders that have 'root' as owner.. how do I accomplish that?
[14:07] <IdleOne> aaron11: better then go to the source? www.skype.com
[14:07] <McL0VIN> bullgard: llutz will do
[14:08] <ftw> exit
[14:08] <bassogigas> aaron11, what's wromg with the previous answer?
[14:08] <jonathan__> soreau: alright, I'm back. sorry bout that
[14:08] <llutz> Hew: how did you change your password?
[14:08] <bullgard> ~/Templates, ~/Public, ~/Documents, ~/Music und ~/Pictures are "special folders". What is special with them? Only that I can keep their names when changing the locale?
[14:09] <Hew> llutz, using the "users & groups" option in the menu
[14:09] <Hew> I changed it for my user
[14:09] <Hew> but not root, I'm not sure if that matters
[14:09] <iPeter-> Hey how do i set an x11vnc server to viewonly mode?
[14:09] <llutz> bullgard: they exist to make win-users feel like home, just meta-directories
[14:10] <neezer> Thanks a lot llutz. I appreciate the help.
[14:11] <luist> hey... how can i remove the gnome panel? it doesnt have the remove option and the lowest size i can set is 17
[14:11] <shuuIRC> llutz, is there any way to change ownership of folders that are owned by root? Because I can't do anything outside of my little home folder.. permissiond enied.
[14:11] <llutz> shuuIRC: you don't want to change them, use sudo to access
[14:11] <maco> shuuIRC: use sudo when you want to edit things outside of /home
[14:11] <neezer> looks like I don't need to forward any ports....just set up static IP on my ps3 and make sure upnp is enabled.
[14:11] <Hew> I'm getting nasty looking errors like: "Could not update ICEauthority file /home/user/.ICEauthority"
[14:12] <shuuIRC> so when I want to move a file from my home folder, for instance a plug-in, how do i do it? drag and drop will get me permission denied
[14:12] <llutz> neezer: if your router allows upnp (which is a severe security-risk imho)
[14:12] <jiohdi> shuulRC, you can manipulate the content of any folder if you open a root window and use thunar or another file manager.. it will open as root and you will have full access, but you must be extremely careful doing that
[14:12] <Hew> also I have encrypted home directory, not sure if that matters
[14:12] <jiohdi> shuuIRC: in the root window if you type thunar it will open a ROOT file manager
[14:12] <jonathan__> soreau: it has stopped searching for drivers when I open it, how can I get it to search again?
[14:13] <shuuIRC> how do i open a root window then
[14:13] <shuuIRC> :o
[14:13] <jiohdi> to open a root window just type sudo -s
[14:13] <llutz> shuuIRC: open terminal, sudo -i
[14:13] <jiohdi> and then your password
[14:13] <shuuIRC> ok I'll try it out, thanks
[14:13] <soreau> jonathan__: Like I said, try reinstalling the packages that you removed initially
[14:13] <jiohdi> or you can use gksudo too I believe
[14:14] <bullgard> llutz: At least they either keep or change their names if I change the locale. How is this feature implemented in tem?
[14:14] <jonathan__> soreau: alright, that's what I'm doing. I was just checking in-between each package
[14:14] <bullgard> llutz: What is a meta-directory?
[14:14] <IpSe_DiXiT> hello everyone, everytime i put a cd/dvd into my dvd player the pc restarts, i run ubuntu 8.10, any clue? thanks
[14:15] <Berserkur> Can someone shed some light on why I can't get a level3 character to show up when using altGr
[14:15] <Berserkur> When the key has a 3rd level character defined
[14:15] <llutz> bullgard: sorry, no idea about how that mechanism works, i always delete them after installation.
[14:15] <Berserkur> Please! Someone!
[14:15] <aaron11> !help | Berserkur
[14:15] <bullgard> IpSe_DiXiT: Please analyze your /var/log/syslog at this particular time.
[14:16] <bullgard> llutz: Right. --  Thank you for explaining.
[14:16] <Hew> I just changed my user password, now when I restart I can still only login with my old password, but everything is broken, I get errors and only the karmic background. I used the Users & Groups application. Any ideas?
[14:16] <McL0VIN> when reading any manual sometimes i see words like this "invisiâ€ ble" what is this please?
[14:16] <shuuIRC> jiohdi, llutz, thanks guys, it worked just fine. I guess I'll have to get used to using the terminal more. basically, putting sudo in front of a command gives me permission to do anything, right? including harmfula ctions
[14:17] <llutz> shuuIRC: yes
[14:17] <linuxuz3r> shuuIRC: try sudo -s
[14:17] <Berserkur> aaron11: Fair enough, but do you know anything about this? :)
[14:17] <IdleOne> bullgard: I am guessing a meta-directory is like a meta-package, a dir that links to other dir.
[14:18] <shuuIRC> linuxuz3r, sudo -s does nothing :o
[14:18] <llutz> shuuIRC: better use "sudo -i" instead of -s, -i sets proper root-environment
[14:18] <linuxuz3r> shuuIRC: it makes you root
[14:18] <linuxuz3r> so all you have to do is type in a command
[14:18] <shuuIRC> oh okay, I see, well thanks, I got all the info I needed so I'm off. :)
[14:18] <jonathan__> soreau: grrrrrr I reinstalled all that stuff and Hardware Drivers still comes up with nothing :(
[14:19] <soreau> jonathan__: That's strange.. maybe you installed something else too inadvertently
[14:20] <Scott_Puopolo1> anyone know which logfile to inspect to track down a start up problem, system doesn't make it to login screen.
[14:20] <znh> Hello :-)
[14:20] <soreau> jonathan__: jockey-common ?
[14:21] <jonathan__> soreau: when I installed linux on here yesterday, It booted up with a console that asked me for my username and password. only it was blinking, and it wouldn't take input from my keyboard very easily. we installed a .run from nvidia to fix it. is this what's causing the problem soreau?
[14:21] <soreau> jonathan__: meh
[14:21] <znh> I was working and all of the sudden Input/Output errors showed up. I ran e2fsck and it seems to run again. Is Ext4 unstable or is my harddrive likely to failure soon?
[14:21] <jonathan__> soreau: jockey-common brings a command not found error in the console
[14:21] <llutz> Scott_Puopolo1: enable boot.log in /etc/default/bootlogd and hope your error will be logged too
[14:21] <IpSe_DiXiT> bullgard: how can i? if it reboots, will it write something on the log anyway? will i be able to read it after the new boot?
[14:22] <soreau> jonathan__: apt-get install jockey-common
[14:22] <jonathan__> soreau: alright
[14:22] <l0ckd0wn> Can anyone help me with a problem i am having with nautilus and my mounted parition
[14:22] <Hew> Anyone know how I can fix this? I just changed my user password, now when I restart I can still only login with my old password, I get errors and only see the karmic background. I used the Users & Groups application. Any ideas?
[14:22] <znh> I was working and all of the sudden Input/Output errors showed up. I ran e2fsck and it seems to run again. Is Ext4 unstable or is my harddrive likely to failure soon?
[14:22] <jonathan__> soreau: jockey-common is already the newest version.
[14:23] <bullgard> IpSe_DiXiT: Yes, the computer automatically makes notices there about all important events in your computer. You can read it using any editor, for example Gedit.
[14:23] <Scott_Puopolo1> llutz: thanks for reply, I will try that...i can start in recovery mode to the prompt...if i execute startx i get the desktop ok as root
 jonathan__: I say just install the driver. btw, if you ever installed with the .run from the nvidia site or some other method, this could also be causing a problem
[14:23] <bullgard> IpSe_DiXiT: The notices are written on hard disk automatically and permanently stored for a long time.
[14:24] <jonathan__> soreau: yes, I understand that. what do I do about it?
[14:24] <znh> I was working and all of the sudden Input/Output errors showed up. I ran e2fsck and it seems to run again. Is Ext4 unstable or is my harddrive likely to failure soon?
[14:24] <chrisw> how can I re-install a package (I installed subversion before apache, now I have apache, it doesn't appear to have installed the svn apache dav module...)
[14:24] <IdleOne> !repeat | znh
[14:24] <IpSe_DiXiT> bullgard: yes yes, i no how to read it, but dunno "how" to read it, if u get what i mean, ill have to do it and pastebin it here for someone to tell me if theres something
[14:24] <soreau> jonathan__: Assuming you have installed an nvidia-glx package, check /etc/X11/xorg.conf and make sure you have Driver "nvidia" in the device section, then reboot
[14:24] <fabio_> hello everyone
[14:24] <soreau> It might already be fixed
[14:24] <linuxuz3r> !ext4 | znh
[14:25] <fabio_> I am using a poseidon distro
[14:25] <jonathan__> soreau: alright, it's in there. reboot time
[14:25] <bullgard> IpSe_DiXiT: Now I know what you mean. Use a nopastebin service to make the notices around this time public for people who want to help you.
[14:26] <IpSe_DiXiT> bullgard: what is that?
[14:26] <fabio_> I have a problem with the updates
[14:26] <IdleOne> !paste | IpSe_DiXiT
[14:27] <IpSe_DiXiT> IdleOne: this is what i said, i know what that is, i dunno what "nopastebin service" is...
[14:27] <hamzaatova2> will you tell me how to record from myspace player???????????
[14:27] <jonathan__> soreau: alright, I'm back after a restart
[14:28] <IdleOne> IpSe_DiXiT: just another pasting service
[14:28] <Administrator2> how can i get the login screeen ot just boot the machine to the desktop without needing a login?
[14:28] <IpSe_DiXiT> IdleOne: i guessed thatz what it was. but why is different?
[14:29] <Scott_Puopolo1> llutz: after enabling bootlogd and (attempting) restart, where will this logfile be located?  sorry..noob
[14:29] <jonathan__> soreau: alright, the 185 proprietary driver is installed. now what?
[14:29] <llutz> Scott_Puopolo1: /var/log/boot.log
[14:29] <soreau> jonathan__: The first thing you messed up is when you ran that .run file from nvidia site. I assume it's still broken?
[14:29] <bullgard> files having the extension .flv are flash video files and proprietary? Programs to read them may interfere with PulseAudio functionality?
[14:29] <IdleOne> IpSe_DiXiT: same service basically just a different name
[14:30] <jonathan__> soreau: I HAD to install that or X wouldn't even start. I understand that that isn't usually what you want to do, but I had no choice. and yes, blender 3d still won't start
[14:30] <bullgard> Is the Sorenson Spark Video decoder plugin FOSS?
[14:31] <soreau> jonathan__: Well you need to correctly install the nvidia driver for your card. Whether you should do it through ubuntu packages or through the nvidia site, maybe you should find a guide
[14:31] <soreau> ! nvidia | jonathan__
[14:31] <Administrator2> how can ii reconfigure teh login screen with gnome?
[14:31] <madura> hey, i want to update projectM for audacious, but there's no package or source for audacious, what should I compile?
[14:31] <maco> Administrator2: sudo dpkg --reconfigure gdm"
[14:31] <maco> Administrator2: er, no "
[14:32] <Administrator2> lol thanks
[14:32] <mtaftm> how  can i connect to linux mint chat?
[14:32] <IdleOne> bullgard: it is proprietary http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorenson_codec
[14:32] <Administrator2> what does that actually do?
[14:32] <garymc> Anyone know how I chown a folder and all subdirectiores in the terminal. I just tried "sudo chown gary /var/www/html
[14:32] <garymc> but all subdirectories are still locked
[14:32] <maco> Administrator2: runs the configure script from installation
[14:32] <llutz> garymc: sudo chown -R user:group /dir
[14:32] <bullgard> IdleOne: Ah! Thank you.
[14:32] <maco> Administrator2: or did you want to change other settings about it?
[14:32] <Administrator2> ok
[14:33] <maco> Administrator2: i think it just asks if you want to use gdm or kdm or xdm if you have >=2 installed
[14:33] <Administrator2> well i would like it to boot to a fluxbox desktpl with not password
[14:33] <Administrator2> so i can remote it more readily
[14:33] <Administrator2> with no screen... i want ti be able to use vnc
[14:33] <maco> Administrator2: oh. in that case, log out, go to the options, choose fluxbox for your session, and login. when it asks, set that session as your deafult
[14:34] <anakinz> How to rearange the grub in 9.10? It says that grub.cfg is read only so I can´t make any changes to it, but I want my win 7 hdd as the sekond choise instead of the last choise, can someone help?
[14:34] <maco> Administrator2: then system -> administration -> login screen (i think) should have an autologin optin
[14:34] <Administrator2> ah cool
[14:34] <Administrator2> thanks
[14:34] <Administrator2> greast
[14:34] <jonathan__> soreau: basicly this tells me I need to install a proprietary driver, which I already did.  so basicly, because I used that .run from nvidia, I'm screwed?
[14:35] <mtaftm> Administrator2: can you help me with an webcam issue? it's not being reconised in cheese but it is in terminal
[14:35] <IdleOne> maco: system -> administration -> login screen should also have a session option in it
[14:35] <brute> I have a 20 gb hard drive does anyone know how to get it to mount  I m using ubuntu 804
[14:35] <maco> IdleOne: oooh really? i havent used the new gdm
[14:35] <IdleOne> maco: it doesn't but should
[14:35] <luist> hey... what command is run when i open alt+f2 dialog?
[14:35] <maco> IdleOne: oh. ok.
[14:35] <IdleOne> maco: just throwing that out there :)
[14:36] <soreau> jonathan__: Because you used that .run from nvidia, you will probably have to keep using it. I guess it's like crack to ubuntu. You're hooked now ;)
[14:36] <iamleneko>  1 2
[14:36] <chuche> Nah. You can remove it if you want.
[14:36] <jonathan__> soreau: :( is there ANY way to get 3d accel back now? like, even a reinstall?
[14:37] <chuche> sudo sh /path/to/.run/file.run --uninstall
[14:37] <jonathan__> chuche, I'm not sure where it is anymore though :(
[14:37] <brute> anyone know how to mount a external hard drive
[14:37] <chuche> you can always download another copy of the installer.
[14:38] <jonathan__> ok, I'll try taht
[14:38] <jonathan__> that*
[14:38] <ugur_> Hi. Is there a kernel developer or a socket programmer here?
[14:38] <chuche> You have to make sure it was the same exact version though.
[14:38] <chuche> Otherwise it will complain that it is NOT installed.
[14:38] <chuche> Maybe not anymore but it used to be that way.
[14:38] <jonathan__> chuche, alright, I think I remember which version it was
[14:39] <MASARUwota> brute: use "mount"
[14:39] <luist> hey i moved gnome-panel to make it disappear, but now i cant use alt+f2 dialog... is there any replacement for that?
[14:39] <brute> and the name of the hd?
[14:39] <neezer> llutz: sorry about the long delay, but why do you think upnp on a router is unsecure?
[14:39] <MASARUwota> brute: /dev/sdb1 , for your first partition, probably
[14:39] <llutz> neezer: it allows every app inside your network to reconfigure the router, even malware
[14:40] <neezer> reconfigure???
[14:40]  * Claudiu__ is back (gone 01:52:10)
[14:40] <brute> ok so i don`t need the name of the device  ?
[14:40] <llutz> neezer: like portforwarding
[14:40] <Sport> hello everyone.  i just build a small home server and had intended on using Windows Home Server as its primary OS, however I didn't realize it was different from Windows Server (which I get free through school).  My motherboard has HDMI.  Is there a way I can play media to my TV using Ubuntu server?  Would I need to install a GUI?
[14:41] <neezer> I see...it allows each device to decide which ports it want forwarded...and then opens them up to the world?
[14:41] <hero1900> my friend got a problem he wake up turn on pc then when he log in using ubuntu
[14:41] <chuche> Universal Plug N Play is inherently insecure because it allows any application with UPnP capabilities to configure the open ports on a router/software firewall.
[14:41] <hero1900> the ubuntu was in 6 screens
[14:41] <hero1900> any knows what the problem?
[14:41] <hero1900> 6 small screens
[14:41] <llutz> neezer: yes, that is how it works. you kinda lose a bit of control
[14:42] <alkisg> Has anyone tried installing acrobat reader from adobe? I need it for some newer PDFs that evince doesn't support, and it just sits there on "extracting", with no CPU usage whatsoever! I stopped it after 10 minutes, is it possible that it needed more?
[14:42] <neezer> llutz: is there an alternative if you want to use upnp devices? would you have to manually open the ports for forwarding that the application is going to use?
[14:42] <securbyte> Ciao
[14:42] <chuche> Try running it from the terminal to see if it complains about anything.
[14:42] <hero1900> ok guys how to search for repositories inside terminal?
[14:43] <ikonia> hero1900: apt-cache search
[14:43] <securbyte> Ho bisogno di un aiutino, chi è disponibile?
[14:43] <llutz> neezer:  manual configuration is the better way, but thats just my opinion
[14:43] <jonathan__> EIITEYFH:SKJfhljkhal;kl;fh I'm happy. I got the original nvidia .run file uninstalled.  now what? a restart?
[14:43] <Pici> !it | securbyte
[14:43] <hero1900> thx
[14:43] <securbyte> Grazie, scusa
[14:44] <neezer> thanks llutz:
[14:44] <chuche> Ok now restart your PC, Jonathan_, and remove ANY nvidia-related packages from Synaptic. I would opt for Completely Remove if I were you.
[14:45] <TidyBhoy> seriously... how the feck do ya change the background behind the cube... it wont fecking change for me
[14:45] <bjlen>  Hi, when i put my laptop to sleep (karmic), the bluetooth dongle (which i permanently leave plugged  in) does not stop flashing. Is there a way to make sure the usb ports are switched off so the power drain is lower in sleep mode?
[14:45] <TidyBhoy> i can change the colours but i want to put in a jpg =D
[14:47] <giorgio> hola jaydon!
[14:47] <lucy> I've just downloaded Ubuntu 9.10 and I want to burn it onto a disk so then I can boot in live but when I extract file to the place of the disk it just come up blank. Also I do not have a choice to burn the items to the disk. Any help please?
[14:48] <TidyBhoy> lucy is it not a .iso ?
[14:48] <slabbeh> lucy, you need to burn the ISO directly to the disk using some CD burning software
[14:49] <verb3k> lucy, you don't extract the iso, you burn it as-is
[14:49] <CShadowRun> lucy https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[14:49] <slabbeh> lucy, if you dont have any burning software (ie just using Windows to burn it) you can use http://cdburnerxp.se/
[14:49] <verb3k> lucy, of course using the "iso burn image" mode not normal burning like any other file
[14:50] <CShadowRun> come on guys, there's a wiki page for this, point her at the wiki :P
[14:50] <CShadowRun> wiki solves all \o/
[14:50] <slabbeh> yeah... follow the wiki :P
[14:50] <verb3k> people like to help :)
[14:50] <CShadowRun> hehe
[14:50] <thht> yeah i do i do i do :))))))
[14:50] <TidyBhoy> there a wiki for changing the back ground of my fecking compiz cube? =D
[14:51] <lucy> I have the files on my usb can I boot in live using that?
[14:51] <slabbeh> nah just but there is Google ;)
[14:51] <TidyBhoy> google has failed me
[14:51] <slabbeh> it is simpler to follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto and burn it to a CD lucy
[14:51] <CShadowRun> TidyBhoy: you mean the skydome? you'll need to install the compizconfig-settings-manager package, then go to system > preferences > compizconfig settings manager, then go to Desktop cube > Skydome
[14:51] <soreau> TidyBhoy: Yes, there is http://wiki.compiz.org/ and it's called skydome. Find it in ccsm>Desktop Cube
[14:51] <McL0VIN> when i setup ubuntu 9.10 i was not asked about the root account? why is that ?
[14:52] <IdleOne> !root | McL0VIN
[14:52] <lucy> slabbeh: yeah I have followed that but it just comes up blank on the CD
[14:52] <cedeel> what's the way to configure multiple ipv6 addresses on the same nic on boot?
[14:52] <jonathan__> hey guys, thanks for the help. I got blender working. however, alien arena still isn't starting, and when I start it through the terminal, it gives me this error:  AL lib: oss.c:179: Could not open /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy  does anybody know how to fix this problem?
[14:52] <syockit> I  accidetally added all latex fonts to defoma, and now my fonts list in many programs are in a mess. I forgot how I set it up, how do I restore?
[14:52] <CShadowRun> lucy if you've followed tin instructions on the wiki and the cd just comes out blank it's highly likely that there's something wrong with your CD drive
[14:52] <PTR-> Trying to install U 9.10 x32 on a Compaq 6910p. Kernel recognize hdd, can partition it with fdisk & gparted but partman doesnt recognize hdd or partitions. Tried booting disabling dmraid with same problem. What to try next?
[14:52] <CShadowRun> (I've had the same issue before, bought a new DVDRW, problem solved)
[14:53] <slabbeh> or a bad blank CD, or a bad ISO
[14:53] <CShadowRun> or one of those :P
[14:53] <lucy> CShadowRun: just what I need :/ argh, I want a new laptop all together
[14:53] <TidyBhoy> yea ive got all that an i've put an image file into the box under skydome but it wont show up for some fecking reason
[14:53] <fmagno> How do I configure my ubuntu to show the contents of the window while dragging it ? Is there any easy way via some graphical settings?
[14:53] <verb3k> jonathan__, I suspect misconfigured sound to be your problem, but I'm not sure. If programs use alsa on a pulseaudio system, pusleaudio is tends to hang
[14:53] <CShadowRun> lucy try burning something simple like a data cd from a file, and try a different blank CD too
[14:53] <IdleOne> TidyBhoy: obfuscated cursing is still cursing. please watch your language
[14:53] <CShadowRun> lucy if that doesn't even work, then yea, broken drive
[14:53] <fmagno> sorry, not dragging it, but resizing it
[14:53] <jonathan__> verb3k: alright, thanks. but how do I fix it?
[14:54] <IdleOne> TidyBhoy: as for your compiz issue you can try asking in #compiz
[14:54] <verb3k> jonathan__, I don't want to mislead you because I'm not sure, but you can see if the game can be configured to use pulse
[14:54] <TidyBhoy> ooo they have a channel.. n1
[14:54] <lucy> CShadowRun: okay thanks. If I have all the OS files on the USB is it possible to boot in live or does it have to be a CD?
[14:54] <CShadowRun> fmagno: running compiz?
[14:54] <hyphn> hello there! maybe more ppl is online now.. so, i have been googling quite a bit about this, but noone seems to have a solution, so i thought i would try some live consulting. ---> I want to make my remote-desktop be on one workspace, maximized, and that the hotkeys will work to switch in and out of it. anyone did this or have any ideas?
[14:55] <TidyBhoy> its not a bad word in Ireland ;)#
[14:55] <Sacho> Could anyone recommend a tool I can use to resolve svn's merge conflicts? Preferably something that can work with merge-tool-cmd config?
[14:55] <CShadowRun> lucy you can create a usb boot drive, check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[14:55] <jonathan__> verb3k: I don't know how to configure it if it won't start though
[14:55] <kevin__> hola
[14:55] <Lucider> hello , is there a way to try portatable firefox 3.6 in ubuntu ???
[14:56] <fmagno> CShadowRun, I wouldnt like to run a graphical heavy application to solve this problem. It would probably enable other features that you decrease my computers performance, right ?
[14:56] <verb3k> jonathan__, usually, linux games can be configured using configuration files (you don't need to run the game to configure), you can google it to see how to change to pulseaudio for your game
[14:56] <jonathan__> verb3k: thanks, I'll do that
[14:56] <PTR-> Compaq 6910p, can partition hdd with fdisk or gparted but at installation partman doesnt find hdd or partitions. Suggestions what could be the problem ?
[14:57] <CShadowRun> fmagno: yea, compiz uses resources, although not that much. I used to run compiz quite happily on a P4 1.6ghz with an integrated intel graphics card.
[14:57] <kevin__> alguien me puede decir como instalar lexmark z647 en ubuntu
[14:57] <CShadowRun> fmagno: i'd be more worried about firefox as a resource hog, compared to compiz :P
[14:58] <fmagno> CShadowRun, I use Google Chrome :)
[14:58] <CShadowRun> hehe
[14:58] <hero1900> hi guys i got 6 screen inside my ubuntu
[14:58] <CShadowRun> fmagno: well i know how to do it with compiz anyway, so the only thing i can tell you is that it's down to the window manager
[14:58] <CShadowRun> the default in ubuntu is metacity, so maybe do some googling for metacity resize window, see what you find
[14:59] <mtome> Hello developers? I have a laptop (msi A6000-030US) using Ubuntu 9.04 but it doesn't seem to recognize my internal wireless device
[14:59] <fmagno> got the idea. Thanks
[14:59] <verb3k> jonathan__, you're not the only one having the problem :)  http://bit.ly/8oZLDV
[14:59] <CShadowRun> mtome: are you able to plug in on ethernet and do the updates? that often solves the problem
[15:00] <lucy> ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso   If I am able to burn this to a CD is that all I need to boot in live?
[15:00] <TidyBhoy> yea
[15:00] <CShadowRun> lucy yup
[15:00] <jonathan__> verb3k: hmmm this could be diffucult....
[15:00] <mtome> CShadowRun : Yes. I have even tried installing the gnome-device-manager but I can't see any Wireless Network device
[15:00] <CShadowRun> lucy you can also use unetbootin to "burn" the iso to a usb stick
[15:01] <lucy> CShadowRUN: unebootin?
[15:02] <CShadowRun> lucy: it's a tool you can download, you give it the ISO, point it at a USB stick, and off it goes. Pretty simple really
[15:02] <mtome> CShadowRun: I have done many updates but I can't see any wireless stuff going on. Even when I press the special button
[15:02] <CShadowRun> mtome: did you check system > administration > hardware drivres?
[15:02] <neezer> how big is the 9.10 64 bit image?
[15:02] <lucy> CShadowRun: where can I find this tool? (sorry I am all to new)
[15:02] <kevin__> alguien habla español?
[15:02] <x__> how can i cancel the admin passowrd
[15:02] <verb3k> jonathan__, you can ask more here for help, I may not be able to help. But don't do anything unless you're 100% sure, or you'll break stuff
[15:03] <neezer> I just downloaded it, and it says only 541MB....I thought it would be larger than that.
[15:03] <CShadowRun> neezer: 690.8MB
[15:03] <jonathan__> verb3k: alright, thanks. I gotta go, but you guys have been a LOT of help. thanks guys.
[15:03] <verb3k> np
[15:03] <CShadowRun> !es | kevin__
[15:04] <kevin__> ok gracias
[15:04] <mtome> CShadowRun: Yes. I have accessed the System>administration>hardware but I can only see NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver
[15:05] <Sacho> Could anyone recommend a tool I can use to resolve svn's merge conflicts? Preferably something that can work with merge-tool-cmd config?
[15:05] <CShadowRun> mtome: do you know what wireless card it is? (you can find out by running lspci in a terminal)
[15:07] <brute> I still can`t mount my hd can anyone help with this ?
[15:07] <mtome> CShadowRun: I can see Network Controller: Ralink Device 3090
[15:07] <llutz> brute: "sudo fdisk -l" look what device it is, mount it with "sudo mount /dev/sdXY /mnt"
[15:07] <mtome> CShadowRun: could that also be the Wireless Controller?
[15:08] <CShadowRun> mtome: yea, that's the wireless controller
[15:08] <brute> oh ok thanks I ll try that
[15:08] <zoraxatan> z
[15:08] <mtome> CShadowRun: How do I activate the device
[15:08] <CShadowRun> mtome: https://launchpad.net/~markus-tisoft/+archive/rt3090 this looks promising
[15:08] <Guest34279> is there any better distribution than ubuntu in terms of hardware compatibility? i had trouble with my intel graphics card after installing ubuntu, and i'd rather not go through such a thing again... i dont care about fancy desktop effects and other bells and whistles as long as the operating system can use the hardware properly.
[15:09] <mtome> CShadowRun: Thanks so much. Let me try it
[15:09] <smk22> n
[15:09] <llutz> Guest34279: goto distrowatch.com, pick what you like
[15:09] <CShadowRun> mtome: i've gotta go for a bit, but feel free to drop me a query to let me know it worked or not (My bouncer looks queries while i'm offline) cya :)
[15:10] <smk22> hi guys.. does anyone knows how to solve "Failed to initialize HAL" in ubuntu7
[15:10] <verb3k> s it possible to manually use the wget to download a specific section (or range) of a file?
[15:11] <mtome> CShadowRun: See you
[15:14] <neezer> I have a ssh key on my laptop and I'm thinking of doing a fresh install to 9.10. is there a way I can save the key and use it on my fresh install? or do I need to generate a new key?
[15:14] <llutz> neezer: backup ~/.ssh
[15:14] <Slart> verb3k: I don't think so.. see if perhaps curl can do it
[15:14] <llutz> neezer: at least the "id-" files
[15:14] <pilmark> karmic won't reconize my nokia phone as an internet connection, this works with the karmic netbook edition, any suggestions?
[15:15] <neezer> and then when I get done put the .ssh file back in my home directory?
[15:15] <neezer> that will save all the settings right?
[15:15] <verb3k> Slart, thanks for the help
[15:15] <llutz> neezer: yes, simple like that
[15:15] <neezer> great!

[15:16] <TangentCollision> so
[15:16] <smk22> Does anyone know how to solve "Failed to initialize HAL" in ubuntu7.10.. I've already tried some tips founded in threads but the problem persist
[15:16] <TangentCollision> how small can ubuntu get now a days?
[15:16] <redpages> Hi. I have a HP Pavilion dv7000 with two headphone jacks, 1 and 2.  As a result I cannot seem to get audio out of my speakers, or headphone jack 2 as the broken part inside is detected as plugged in. Thanks.

[15:19] <madura> hey how can i compile projectM using ccmake?
[15:19] <Myrtti> TangentCollision: you're asking a loaded question. installing with the mini.iso creates the smallest running environment, but it's not usable to normal desktop users
[15:20] <llutz> TangentCollision: try it, use minimal-cd. but it's not *buntus intention to be "small"
[15:20] <Carbon_Monoxide> good day all
[15:20] <zassraniec> bo ja nie znam
[15:20] <TangentCollision> fat thing
[15:20] <smk22> can't*
[15:20] <TangentCollision> Myrtti: I'm not normal desktop users
[15:20] <redpages> Myrtti: that suggests the dude is asking a question he knows the answert o
[15:20] <TangentCollision> john was the zombie
[15:20] <Myrtti> TangentCollision: then install the minimal and try your luck

[15:22] <llutz> !minimal
[15:22] <llutz> TangentCollision: ^^
[15:22] <TangentCollision> so it's alternate
[15:22] <TangentCollision> okay
[15:22] <llutz> it's not alternate
[15:22] <syockit> TangentCollision: it's like alternate, excepet that it doesn't have all the packages
[15:22] <Myrtti> redpages: thank you for reminding me about that factoid
[15:23] <TangentCollision> 12mb? jesus that's like net install, right?
[15:23] <syockit> TangentCollision: yes it is
[15:23] <meatbun> when u kill 9483 is there a way to confirm it before killig it? like print out the name of the service?
[15:23] <TangentCollision> I love net install
[15:23] <McL0VIN> how can i pull my ubuntu 9.10 GNOME desktop in another none linux based box out side of my lan

[15:26] <orte> Tnx
[15:26] <tf2ftw> An application im using requires a path but the path has a white space in it. what is the escape char?
[15:26] <TangentCollision> I'm going to assume that mini.iso does not come with ath5k drivers

[15:26] <DHR> On 9.10, I wrote a file of size<PHONE_NUMBER> to my VFAT32 flash.  It appeared to work (according to ls -l).  How can it work when vfat32 has a 4G-1 filesize limit?
[15:26] <TangentCollision> Alf_Stewart: easily
[15:26] <FiReSTaRT> Alf_Stewart: easily.. you could even use a 2gb or 1gb drive
[15:27] <Alf_Stewart> fantastic
[15:27] <redpages> Alf_Stewart: easily.. i'd go with even a 2gb or 1gb usb drive

[15:28] <FiReSTaRT> Alf_Stewart: can't help you on that count because i haven't been on dialup since 1998.. i can look up the community wiki for you
[15:28] <redpages> !ops
[15:28] <llutz> DHR: that is 3.99999GB
[15:28] <FiReSTaRT> Alf_Stewart: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto?action=show&redirect=SettingUpModems
[15:28] <Alf_Stewart> FiReSTaRT can you just confirm if this is what i do once i install ubuntu and load it up: Open a terminal window and type in:
[15:28] <Alf_Stewart> sudo apt-get install gnome-ppp
[15:29] <Alf_Stewart> is that right?
[15:29] <DHR> llutz: oops, you are right.  Thanks.
[15:29] <FiReSTaRT> Alf_Stewart: that's the right way to install the package, but i'm not sure what gnome-ppp does :)
[15:29] <Alf_Stewart> oh ok :)
[15:29] <Alf_Stewart> either do i lol
[15:29] <llutz> DHR: even karmic cannot perform miracles
[15:30] <FiReSTaRT> Alf_Stewart: if you're following the instructions from a community wiki, you should be set though
[15:30] <mercyless> i`m sorry couls you help me?
[15:30] <mercyless> i`m sorry could you help me?
[15:30] <ice_age> FiReSTaRT: gnome-ppp uses wvdial to connect dialup to the net
[15:30] <Alf_Stewart> that should be it then ice_age am i right?
[15:30] <FiReSTaRT> Alf_Stewart: ice_age just answered it :)
[15:31] <mercyless> anybody there?
[15:31] <FiReSTaRT> !ask | mercyless
[15:31] <Alf_Stewart> ok thanks FiReSTaRT :)
[15:32] <FiReSTaRT> Alf_Stewart: no worries, but i think ice_age was more helpful here.. good luck and get high speed.. the difference is night and day :)
[15:32] <Alf_Stewart> i hope i can get it working fingers crossed!
[15:32] <mercyless> oh) my english not well, from russia, when I start ubuntu my mac adress conflict, i want to change it=) how?
[15:33] <Alf_Stewart> i remember i had troubles previously with another linux distro and i couldnt get the modem to work :(
[15:33] <ice_age> Alf_Stewart: use wvdial package. Sadly it doesnot come with ubuntu karmic but it used to be present in intrepid. Gnome-ppp is just the gui/front end of wvdial.
[15:33] <llutz> !info wvdial
[15:33] <FiReSTaRT> Alf_Stewart: but if you install gnome-ppp it should also install wvdial as well
[15:34] <McL0VIN> llutz: rsync is for synchronization , i need something so remote desktop to my server
[15:34] <ibuclaw> mercyless, http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/change-your-network-card-mac-address-on-ubuntu/
[15:34] <ice_age> FiReSTaRT: yes
[15:34] <Alf_Stewart> ok
[15:34] <Alf_Stewart> im going to give it a go now
[15:34] <mercyless> thnq
[15:34] <llutz> McL0VIN: you can use rsync to clone your installation
[15:34] <Alf_Stewart> im going to install it on my usb drive
[15:34] <FiReSTaRT> ok gl Alf_Stewart
[15:34] <darck1> Hi. I'm trying to start proftpd and it's not working because I have port 21 currently in use. However, if I use "socklist" from procinfo, it does indeed list port 21 but doesn't have a name or process id listed for it. How can I tell what is using port 21?
[15:34] <Alf_Stewart> thanks all for the help
[15:34] <ice_age> The problem is how canyou install it with no net?
[15:34] <Alf_Stewart> i appreciate it
[15:34] <FiReSTaRT> Alf_Stewart: wvdial is available in the repos, but not automatically installed btw :)
[15:34] <llutz> McL0VIN: just needs remote-pc, ssh-access, empty partition
[15:34] <McL0VIN> llutz: clone my installation?! ... i don't understand please explain
[15:34] <Alf_Stewart> ice_age i have an iso of ubuntu
[15:35] <Alf_Stewart> FiReSTaRT ahhhhhhhhhhh!!! so thats why i couldnt find it when i ran the live cd yesturday! i knew it!
[15:35] <llutz> McL0VIN: did i get you right, you want to clone your local installation to remote-pc?
[15:35] <Alf_Stewart> thank you for clarifying that for me FiReSTaRT
[15:35] <Alf_Stewart> what about nvidia drivers are they in the repos as well?
[15:35] <McL0VIN> llutz: i want to view my desktop from remote location
[15:36] <FiReSTaRT> Alf_Stewart: yeah, you should be able to install them by clicking on system, administration, hardware drivers
[15:36] <ice_age> Alf_Stewart: Yes but how can you connect to the net and install wvdial/gnome-ppp. It is not present in karmic.
[15:36] <llutz> McL0VIN: sorry, then, got you wrong. use nx/vnc then
[15:36] <Alf_Stewart> ice_age oh i thought it was? isnt that what FiReSTaRT just said?
[15:36] <Alf_Stewart> its in the repos?
[15:37] <FiReSTaRT> Alf_Stewart: in the repos, not on the cd.. u need to get it to a place with working highspeed internet
[15:37] <Alf_Stewart> oh
[15:37] <Alf_Stewart> so im outta luck then
[15:37] <FiReSTaRT> Alf_Stewart: download the drivers and the wvdial/gnome-ppp packages and you should be ready to go dialup
[15:37] <ice_age> No brother. You have to manually download if you have not net just like i did. from windows wit net
[15:37] <Alf_Stewart> oh
[15:37] <FiReSTaRT> Alf_Stewart: why? unless it's bolted to the floor you should be able to move the comp
[15:37] <Alf_Stewart> ok
[15:37] <McL0VIN> llutz: yeah i don't want to use vnc/nx .... i am sorry i am not wording this right i guess.... how about exporting my DISPLAY to a remote location
[15:38] <katycorp> does anyone know if the nv video driver supports twinview/dual display?
[15:38] <llutz> McL0VIN: use ssh x-forwarding
[15:38] <Alf_Stewart> ice_age can i download it on here then when i load ubuntu i can mount c: drive and move the repos to the usb drive where ubuntu is installed?
[15:38] <McL0VIN> llutz: is there is a tutorial i can read please
[15:38] <FiReSTaRT> katycorp: the nvidia driver supoorts both
[15:39] <llutz> McL0VIN: just google pls, should be plenty in the net
[15:39] <ice_age> You have to install it. Use sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[15:39] <McL0VIN> llutz: ok , thank you so much for your help and patients
[15:39] <TangentCollision> okay, been looking, what directory do I point the net installer at?

[15:39] <Alf_Stewart> where do i find that ice_age?
[15:39] <Alf_Stewart> the repo you just typed?
[15:40] <Alf_Stewart> thanks FiReSTaRT you been a great help
[15:40] <darck1> Anybody have an answer for me?
[15:41] <spud_> host
[15:41] <Alf_Stewart> ice_age can you post a link to get that package?
[15:41] <Alf_Stewart> i cant find it in google?
[15:42] <ice_age> Alf_Stewart:that is not repo. that is a terminal command. First go to http://packages.ubuntu.com/ and search for wvdial. then download the package. Don't forget to download the dependencies altogether 3. You haveto download 5 packagesi total
[15:42] <Alf_Stewart> ohh ok
[15:42] <Alf_Stewart> thank you
[15:42] <Alf_Stewart> im doing it now
[15:43] <josespinal> Hi, I've been using this to connect to a headless (no monitor/keyboard) computer I have at work: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC#accessing-your-pc It's been working fine, but now when I try to do the x11vnc command I get this: http://pastie.org/773648
[15:43] <josespinal> Anyone please?
[15:44] <Alf_Stewart> ice_age which one do i install brother the amd64 or i386 package?
[15:44] <ice_age> what is you procesor intel or amd?
[15:44] <Alf_Stewart> amd64
[15:44] <Alf_Stewart> so i gather that then
[15:45] <ice_age> Use amd64 packages then. Download the dependencies also.
[15:45] <dlocal> :D
[15:45] <Chousuke> amd64 is 64-bit, i386 is 32-bit
[15:45] <Alf_Stewart> which ones are the dependancies sorry im so new to linux sorry
[15:45] <madcat1990> Is there anyone here experienced in MIPS Compiling on ubuntu?
[15:45] <ice_age> Alf_Stewart: the packages you need are :libuniconf4.6_4.6-2_i386.deb ,libwvstreams4.6-base_4.6-2_i386.deb, libwvstreams4.6-extras_4.6-2_i386.deb, wvdial_1.60.1+nmu2ubuntu1_i386.deb, Gnome-ppp.deb
[15:46] <Alf_Stewart> thanks ice_age thats what i needed to know
[15:46] <irc9> rut roh rorge
[15:46] <OerHeks> josespinal computer with no keyboard ? did this work and now broken ?
[15:46] <Alf_Stewart> Chousuke so do i download the 32bit or 64bit?
[15:46] <Alf_Stewart> or it doesnt matteR?
[15:46] <Chousuke> but, why are you installing a package manually?
[15:46] <Chousuke> doesn't APT work?
[15:46] <Alf_Stewart> Chousuke i was told to do so?
[15:46] <Chousuke> ie. sudo aptitude install wvdial
[15:47] <subito> hello, i'm on ubuntu, but i've installed kubuntu-desktop, now that i want kde 4.4 RC1, i've added the kubuntu-ppa on my sources.list, but when if i type apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade, the kde packages are not upgraded (but i got a few upgrades for other packages)
[15:47] <razertek> is there a way to look up user info on another machine in my network, something like the w program even if they are on a windows system?
[15:47] <josespinal> OerHeks, Yes it worked, now it doesn't
[15:47] <Ma> Is it possible to restrict a user to just browse one folder?
[15:48] <Chousuke> Alf_Stewart: ah, you don't have internet access configured yet?
[15:48] <Alf_Stewart> Chousuke are you saying that the package is included in karmic?
[15:48] <Alf_Stewart> nopsey :)
[15:48] <Alf_Stewart> i only have dial up lol
[15:48] <Chousuke> I wonder if those packages are on the CD
[15:48] <josespinal> Is it that the computer must be logged in and not showing the GDM login screen?
[15:48] <Alf_Stewart> thats what im wondering?
[15:49] <Alf_Stewart> i thought they might be
[15:49] <Alf_Stewart> i was told they were
[15:49] <irc9> Ma: Why would you have to do such a thing?
[15:49] <Alf_Stewart> then ice_age said they arent
[15:49] <Alf_Stewart> i dont know?
[15:49] <razertek> anyone familiar with w
[15:50] <irc9> someone's messing around with bots
[15:50] <Chousuke> Alf_Stewart: hmmh.
[15:50] <Alf_Stewart> Chousuke do you think they might be?
[15:50] <Chousuke> Alf_Stewart: well, I have no way to confirm but wvdial is in the "main" section at least
[15:50] <Ma> irc9: To let friends get access to a shell without browsing the whole server
[15:50] <Chousuke> Alf_Stewart: so it should be on the cd
[15:51] <josespinal> OerHeks,  Is it that the computer must be logged in and not showing the GDM login screen?
[15:51] <Chousuke> Alf_Stewart: I would expect Ubuntu to support dial-up internet out of the box.
[15:51] <irc9> Ma: You mean in a Ubuntu Server (S)FTP?
[15:51] <Chousuke> Alf_Stewart: but I haven't had dial-up for almost a decade now, so...
[15:51] <Ma> irc9: no, ssh shell access.
[15:51] <Alf_Stewart> Chousuke all i know is when i loaded the live cd i didnt seen anything for dialup options or set up only for broadband or wireless is that because im running the live cd and havnt installed it fully for all the packages to be open?
[15:52] <ice_age_> Chousuke:  not so . There is no wvdial now. It was present till 8.10
[15:52] <Alf_Stewart> there ya go
[15:52] <Alf_Stewart> lol
[15:52] <irc9> the parting and leaving is the lamest 'attack' ive ever seen
[15:52] <Chousuke> ice_age_: maybe it was replaced by something else?
[15:52] <razertek> Alf_Stewart: what are you trying to do?
[15:52] <Alf_Stewart> ill continue to download the packages then
[15:52] <ragsagar> ice_age_: why no wvdial now?
[15:52] <Alf_Stewart> razertek get my dial up working on ubuntu
[15:52] <madcat1990> Is there anyone here experienced in MIPS Compiling on ubuntu?
[15:52] <Chousuke> Karmic should have ModemManager or something
[15:52] <ikonia> madcat1990: mips as a native platform or cross-compiling
[15:53] <ice_age_> I don't know. It is present in fedora and  Sabayon
[15:53] <razertek> Alf_Stewart: where does network gui get you?
[15:53] <madcat1990> @Ikonia : Cross compiling
[15:53] <Alf_Stewart> only for wireless and broadband connections
[15:53] <ikonia> madcat1990: yes, I've done that
[15:53] <Alf_Stewart> dial up doesnt show up at all
[15:53] <mallochigh> is their an easy way to resize root.disk from wubi?
[15:53] <madcat1990> @Ikonia : Care to lend a hand? =/ I want to program for my dingux and dingoo
[15:53] <Lucider> is is right that rhythmbox ceased development and wont come in ubuntu any more ???
[15:53] <ice_age_> Alf_Stewart: as far as i know wvdial is for dialup. You must install it. I am using dialup.
[15:54] <ikonia> madcat1990: ok, so what's the problem ?(I assume one is x86 the other mips)
[15:54] <Alf_Stewart> ice_age im taking your advice brother and downloading all the dependants
[15:54] <mallochigh> google-ing
[15:54] <madcat1990> ikonia : For starters, I do not know if I have the right libs and whatnot for actually compiling
[15:54] <Ma> irc9: possible?
[15:55] <ice_age_> Alf_Stewart: not much about 1.2 mb only
[15:55] <fission6> libxml/parser.h: No such file or directory can someone help me get this to link
[15:55] <ikonia> madcat1990: well, have you built a toolchain yet ?
[15:55] <Alf_Stewart> arrrggg debconf broken link ice_age!!!!
[15:55] <ice_age_> Alf_Stewart:  don't you have other net to support you?
[15:55] <Alf_Stewart> cant download it
[15:55] <madcat1990> ikonia : Yes, I've got one from dingoonity, I'm about to compile
[15:55] <Alf_Stewart> nope just this unfortuantly
[15:55] <Alf_Stewart> debconf has a broken link
[15:55] <ikonia> madcat1990: let me look at  what dingoonity, is
[15:56] <madcat1990> ikonia : Its a dingoo community
[15:56] <ice_age_> Alf_Stewart: just tell me your state. You are booting from live cd?
[15:56] <Alf_Stewart> at the moment but im on windows now
[15:57] <madcat1990> @ikonia : I need mipsel-linux-gcc, but cannot find a package for it on the Karmic repositories
[15:57] <ice_age_> In virtual machine?
[15:57] <Alf_Stewart> no just normally
[15:57] <ikonia> madcat1990: ok so where are you stuck ?
[15:57] <razertek> Alf_Stewart: did you read this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto/ScanModem
[15:57] <ice_age_> Ok download the packages in a folder.
[15:57] <madcat1990> @ikonia : I need mipsel-linux-gcc, but cannot find a package for it on the Karmic repositories <<---- here
[15:57] <razertek> Alf_Stewart:  and this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[15:57] <Alf_Stewart> thats what im doing
[15:57] <Alf_Stewart> but one of the packages has a broken link
[15:57] <ikonia> !info mipsel-linux-gcc,
[15:58] <ikonia> !info mipsel-linux-gcc
[15:58] <Alf_Stewart> razertek thanks ill read them i think ive read them before though?
[15:58] <ice_age_> Which one ? try another server
[15:58] <ikonia> madcat1990: doesn't look like a package, so you'll have to build your own mips-gcc compiler
[15:58] <madcat1990> @ikonia : Any suggestions as to where to start?
[15:58] <Alf_Stewart> its ok got it working now
[15:58] <Alf_Stewart> lol
[15:58] <razertek> bbl all
[15:58] <mallochigh> geez its kind of obtuse.. anyone for resize a wubi partition, maybe its just a dd + ext2 image?
[15:59] <ikonia> madcat1990: yup, you'll need to build a mips-compiler
[15:59] <FunkyWeasel> Good afternoon.  I have installed GAP, the animation Tool for gimp, but cannot find how to launch it.  I cannot find it anywhere in GIMP, in the Applications Menu, or launch it from command line.
[15:59] <razertek> mallochigh: who produces wubi?
[15:59] <master_> tell me
[15:59] <madcat1990> @ikonia : Where's the source? D:
[15:59] <ikonia> madcat1990: gnu.org
[15:59] <mallochigh> ubuntu
[16:00] <mallochigh> wubi is the windows installer
[16:00] <razertek> bbl
[16:01] <FunkyWeasel> The tutorial, http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Using_GAP/ doesn't really explain how to start GAP.  Or access it.  It assume it magically appears.
[16:01] <llutz> FunkyWeasel: should appear in plugins
[16:01] <R1ck> hi, anyone here experienced with installing Ubuntu Server via XenCenter?
[16:01] <mallochigh> I started the wubii installer to make a smaller wubi image but geez it would be nice to use the one  ialready have
[16:01] <FunkyWeasel> llutz: Nice one, cheers.
[16:01] <ikonia> R1ck: should be the same as a normal machine
[16:01] <master_> ubuntu is source in south of africa: and Ubuntu mean " delvoped for human"
[16:02] <ice_age_> master_: you are wrong. It means humanity to others
[16:02] <R1ck> ikonia: the iso hangs after selecting English and "install Ubuntu Server", all I see as a cursor
[16:02] <master_> yes exscuse me
[16:02] <neezer> what is the best way to partition your hd? I have 300GB and want to do a fresh install...
[16:03] <ikonia> R1ck: what's your host OS ?
[16:03] <R1ck> XenServer
[16:03] <ikonia> neezer: it's personal prefernce,partition it up as you would like to
[16:03] <master_> whwere do you live?
[16:03] <ice_age_> master_: it is not source in africa. It is funded by southafrican man in UK i suppose.
[16:03] <ikonia> R1ck: what OS is running your Xen Server
[16:03] <neezer> I'm thinking about making a separate partition of 100GB for my music...I have 80GB of music...
[16:03] <master_> no partition ext2
[16:03] <R1ck> ikonia: do you know what XenServer is?
[16:03] <ice_age_> master_: i don't live in africa though
[16:03] <DasEi> neezer: depends on your needs
[16:03] <neezer> ikonia: i guess i'm looking for opinions.
[16:03] <laeg> !JRE
[16:03] <ikonia> R1ck: I know what "a" Xen Server is, I'm not aware of a distro called xenserver
[16:03] <madcat1990> @ikonia : so now I'm suposed to look for the mips-linux-gcc source there?
[16:04] <Aled> Hi all
[16:04] <vfen> whats the easiet way to find out what cpu u got?
[16:04] <MoeGreen> hello everyone.. I want to look into getting my linux+ or LPI certs.  Does anybody have theirs on here that could point me to some great courses online, etc...
[16:04] <ikonia> neezer: other peoplesopinions don't matter as it's personal to you
[16:04] <vfen> easiest
[16:04] <R1ck> ikonia: its the Citrix commercial version of xen
[16:04] <neezer> I see.
[16:04] <iceroot> vfen: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[16:04] <neezer> thanks
[16:04] <R1ck> ikonia: its an os
[16:04] <ikonia> madcat1990: mips-linux-gcc is just gcc compiled for mips
[16:04] <ikonia> R1ck: ahh, thank you
[16:04] <FunkyWeasel> llutz: I can't find GAP in the GIMP plugin browser.  Is that the right place to look?
[16:04] <vfen> tyvm iceroot
[16:04] <Aled> How do I set permissions on Xubuntu to allow me to read, write and delete files in a restricted directory
[16:04] <R1ck> ikonia: its based on RHEL iirc though
[16:04] <ikonia> I've just found it oncitrix.com from google
[16:04] <llutz> FunkyWeasel: afaik yes
[16:04] <DasEi> Aled man chown, man chod
[16:04] <laeg> "and use +javahome to specify the JDK or JRE location" - where is it located?
[16:04] <cawas> [question] I got a HP all in one printer and I want a simple way to scan with it connected to the server. I've made a shell script that does the job and scan to overwrite a default file. But I wonder how I can run it without needing to ssh into the server. Best would be by pressing the printer "scan" button, but I'd also enjoy being able to do it through local HTTP, no passwords asked. Anyone can help?
[16:05] <FunkyWeasel> llutz: Downer.  Doesn't seem to have installed properly.
[16:05] <madcat1990> @ikonia : then I download gcc?
[16:05] <coolcat> how can I start a process that is stopped on the background?
[16:05] <DasEi> Aled man chown, man chmod*
[16:05] <llutz> FunkyWeasel: sudo aptitude reinstall gimp-gap
[16:05] <ikonia> madcat1990: if you want to build a mips gcc compiler yes
[16:05] <Aled> DasEi: "man"?
[16:06] <b2ag> hi@all
[16:06] <genii> coolcat: fg
[16:06] <madcat1990> @ikonia : ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/gnu/gcc/gcc-4.4.2/gcc-4.4.2.tar.gz would this be suitable?
[16:06] <DasEi> Aled type these commands in trml, man is sort for manual (help)
[16:06] <ikonia> madcat1990: if that's the compiler version you want and need,sure
[16:06] <laeg> "and use +javahome to specify the JDK or JRE location" - where is it located on ubuntu?
[16:07] <didi> Does someone is experiencing video hang ups with empathy? Every time I call someone the video is up and showing during the ring. As soon as the other person accepts the call the camera stops showing up and I can't bring it back.
[16:07] <cchildress> Hi everyone.  After a recent update to firefox/xulrunner, Empathy will launch for me, gives no errors...and no contact list pops up.  It's like it's running without a window.  Is this a known problem?
[16:07] <b2ag> i try to compile blender from source but blender is missing libopenal.a ... libopenal is installed but only libopenal.so* files in /usr/lib
[16:07] <madcat1990> @ikonia : Then when the time comes to compile, what paramaters should I give to "make" to compile it for Mips?
[16:07] <irc9> does anyone here know how to irc cop
[16:07] <FunkyWeasel> llutz: Still no joy.  Any recommendation on a GUI based GIF animation tool that works?
[16:07] <irc9> good lord
[16:07] <coolcat> genii, But I want it to run on the background, I want to use the same terminal for other things ...
[16:07] <Aled> Ah right
[16:07] <llutz> FunkyWeasel: nope
[16:07] <ikonia> madcat1990: have you ever cross-compiled anything
[16:07] <ikonia> irc9: pardon ?
[16:07] <DasEi> Aled : for a subfolder : chown -R Aled /subfolder
[16:07] <FunkyWeasel> llutz: No worries, thanks for your help :)
[16:07] <irc9> some dude is flooding with joins and parts
[16:07] <DasEi> Aled : for a subfolder : sudo chown -R Aled /subfolder
[16:07] <madcat1990> @ikonia : On windows, yes. All I had to do was download a Cygwin package, put some environment variables and it was done
[16:07] <ikonia> irc9: tell your client to ignore join and parts, it's just traffic
[16:08] <ikonia> madcat1990: thats not how it works,
[16:08] <madcat1990> @ikonia : Let me guess, I have to alter the gcc compiler by hand to be able to compile to my MIPS processor, right?
[16:09] <ikonia> madcat1990: alter it by hand ??? no, you just have to compile it for the local arch but include/link it to the target arch toolchian
[16:09] <ikonia> chain
[16:09] <Aled> Worked, thanks DasEi
[16:09] <madcat1990> @ikonia : how to I include/link it to the target arch toolchain then? =/
[16:10] <Aled> used sudo chown aled /var/www/
[16:10] <ikonia> madcat1990: I think you need to do a little research on cross-compiling, you're diving in quite high
[16:10] <DasEi> ALed: nice
[16:10] <ikonia> madcat1990: this isn't a 2 minute conversation
[16:11] <madcat1990> @ikonia : I can see that =/, maybe I'll just do a virtual machine for now.
[16:11] <koichirose> hello
[16:11] <olof_> Hi, I only get sound from earphones on ubuntu 9.10 32bit. Gateway 6860fx laptop.
[16:11] <koichirose> How long should it take to create an ext3 partition on a 1.5TB disk with gparted?
[16:12] <madcat1990> @ikonia : I have some other more simple questions, can you still help?
[16:12] <ikonia> madcat1990: I can certainly try
[16:12] <madcat1990> @ikonia : Photobucket crashes my firefox when uploading, what's up with that?
[16:13] <ikonia> no idea
[16:13] <madcat1990> @ikonia : nvm then x), do you use Docky?
[16:13] <FunkyWeasel> Can anyone suggest a gif animation tool?  I've got to do an animation that fades words in and out, the only solution we have so far is save about 30 images out from gif and use gifsicle to stitch them together, which is a COMPLETE PAIN when the boss innevitably wants to change one word.
[16:13] <ikonia> madcat1990: no
[16:14] <madcat1990> @ikonia : Sorry to have bothered you then, and thank you for the help
[16:14] <ikonia> madcat1990: no bother
[16:14] <genii> coolcat: You could try to send a sigcont to it with the kill command, if you know it's pid
[16:14] <llutz> FunkyWeasel: convert from imagemagick may help
[16:14] <madcat1990> @ikonia : Btw, I found out that  I need mipseltools-4.1.2-nopic (According to dingoonity) I'm gonna try to find an RPM or DEB ffor that
[16:15] <neezer> is there a command to see if I have a certain package installed?
[16:15] <FunkyWeasel> llutz: Cheers
[16:15] <ikonia> madcat1990: I'd strongly advise against that
[16:15] <llutz> neezer: apt-cache policy package
[16:16] <madcat1990> @ikonia : anyways, I'm off, thanks for the help
[16:16] <neezer> thanks llutz
[16:16] <madcat1990> @ikonia : You're awesome! =D
[16:16] <madcat1990> tootles!
[16:17] <blackxored> with which audio player I can auto-fetch lyrics as I play in a gnome environment???
[16:18] <coolcat> genii, ok, next time I will use & to make it run on the background ...
[16:20] <Norse_Nemo> .
[16:21] <blackxored> with which audio player I can auto-fetch lyrics as I play in a gnome environment???
[16:21] <Norse_Nemo> blackxored: Songbird
[16:21] <Myrtti> blackxored: exaile
[16:21] <blackxored> Norse_Nemo, is on the repos???
[16:22] <ice_age_> blackxored: amarok (it is for kde but works fantastic for gnome). You can use rythmbox though
[16:22] <Norse_Nemo> blackxored: no but it is super easy to install
[16:22] <blackxored> Norse_Nemo, where I can get songbird?
[16:22] <blackxored> Myrtti, I didn't like exaile, amarok simply rocks, but now on gnome
[16:22] <Norse_Nemo> blackxored: Google search Songbird
[16:22] <blackxored> ice_age_, ^^^^
[16:23] <blackxored> what's it's license????
[16:23] <ice_age_> blackxored: amarok works. I am using it
[16:23] <Norse_Nemo> blackxored: freeware
[16:23] <Norse_Nemo> blackxored: it is made by Mozilla
[16:23] <blackxored> Norse_Nemo, "freeware" isn't a license, I was wondering because there *might* be a reason to not being included in the repos
[16:23] <enhickman> blackxored: Rhythmbox does with a plugin i think
[16:24] <ice123> I've downloaded ubuntu and burnt it onto a disk. I've then booted into Ubuntu live and gone system>admin> USB Startup Disk Creator and selected the USB stick. I then changed the capacity and it wont work...can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? (I'm wanting to be able to boot from my USB Stick)
[16:24] <blackxored> enhickman, only interactively if I click the song and select Show Lyrics
[16:24] <smk22> what to do if "/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory"????
[16:24] <blackxored> Norse_Nemo, if I were going to judge because of the UI, you got 10 pts
[16:24] <Norse_Nemo> blackxored: give Songbird a try, you will love it I promise
[16:24] <FunkyWeasel> llutz: I'm sorry, I can't find imagemagick on my desktop either, even though synaptic reckons it's installed.
[16:24] <Norse_Nemo> blackxored:8.5
[16:25] <FunkyWeasel> llutz: Highly frustrating.  I just want a simple GUI gif anim editor without having to go find a windows box to do it on
[16:25] <llutz> FunkyWeasel: it's just a collection of tools, one is "convert" commandline
[16:25] <blackxored> Norse_Nemo, what I meant by being in the repos, is that we normally *adapt* applications
[16:25] <ice_age_> FunkyWeasel: what about photoshop with wine?
[16:25] <FunkyWeasel> llutz: Ah, darn.  No GUI alternative?
[16:25] <blackxored> one should expect that pidgin's is able to show your track, that gnome notifications work, etc
[16:25] <abadabad00> Hello. I am running Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit and recently installed Google Earth 5.1 (from the bin file provided on the Google Earth Website). The program runs okay, but the font size is really really small. I've had this problem with earlier versions of GE, but I can't seem to fix it with this one. Can anyone help?
[16:26] <FunkyWeasel> ice_age_: Sort of defeating the point of ubuntu at that point though, eh?
[16:26] <Norse_Nemo> blackxored: i understand what you mean, it is fairly new and not in the repos yet, it would not surprise me to find it there soon though
[16:26] <blackxored> Norse_Nemo, although if they do their tests on a ubuntu system, they might taken care of that by themselves
[16:26] <blackxored> I'm downloading I'll give a try
[16:26] <llutz> FunkyWeasel: nothing i know of, but graphics isn't my favorite thing
[16:26] <FunkyWeasel> I mean, seriously - if "go use a windows box" is the way forward I'm deeply saddened :)
[16:26] <Norse_Nemo> blackxored: let me know what you think
[16:26] <blackxored> Norse_Nemo, I though it was the license
[16:27] <ice_age_> FunkyWeasel: Yes but consider your work is more important. You can switchback when there is better alternative in ubuntu. But hey it is victory for wine.
[16:27] <Alan502> sudo sync
[16:27] <Norse_Nemo> blackxored: it has the same license as all mozila software
[16:27] <llutz> FunkyWeasel: won't help you, but i never said: "linux to all desktops" :)
[16:27] <cawas> where can I get specific support for hplip on irc?
[16:27] <blackxored> Norse_Nemo, so why's not in the repos???
[16:27] <FunkyWeasel> ice_age_: True.  It's dissapointing GIMP doesn't do this natively too - I'm a huge fan of it otherwise
[16:28] <Aled> How do I get Xubuntu to show .htaccess files
[16:28] <Aled> I can't see the
[16:28] <Aled> *them
[16:28] <irc9> i cant believe that guy has gotten away with scanning this channel for that long
[16:28] <irc9> lol
[16:28] <blackxored> Norse_Nemo, I'd take care of it when time arises if no one has done that before
[16:28] <blackxored> Norse_Nemo, of course, I'll try it first
[16:28] <FunkyWeasel> I can see GAP in the procedural browser, but not the plug-in browser.  How strange.
[16:28] <Norse_Nemo> blackxored: giht on
[16:28] <Norse_Nemo> right*
[16:28] <DasEi> Aled: ctrl+h in nautilus to show hidden files
[16:29] <Aled> Thanks
[16:29] <ice_age_> FunkyWeasel: I am a huge fan too but work is work and it need be done.
[16:29] <koichirose> How long should it take to create an ext3 partition on a 1.5TB disk with gparted?
[16:29] <Aled> I'm using Thunar as a file manager
[16:29] <DasEi> Aled: or change their attribuete ( to non-hidden) man attr
[16:29] <neezer> what is the command to upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10?
[16:29] <Aled> but the command works anyway
[16:29] <Alan502> koichirose, it highly depends on your system
[16:29] <FunkyWeasel> ice_age_: Odd thing is I could have sworn I did animation in GIMP ages ago too.
[16:30] <neezer> I figure I'll try the upgrade, and if that doesn't work I'll do a fresh install.
[16:30] <DasEi> !dist-upgrade | neezer
[16:30] <ikonia> FunkyWeasel: I've done it in gimp
[16:30] <ikonia> not for a long time though
[16:30] <DasEi> !upgarde | neezer
[16:30] <koichirose> Alan502, approximately? I have a core2duo 3.0ghz, the hard disk is a sata wd green 1.5tb
[16:30] <DasEi> !upgrade
[16:30] <ice_age_> FunkyWeasel:  i tried and seeked help but no luck. I am back to photoshop cs2 in wine or cs4 in windows.
[16:30] <FunkyWeasel> ikonia: Yeah, my problem too.  I'm loathe to sink time into a GUI solution because I'll need to generate the images from GIMP anyway and then stitch them together.
[16:31] <hyatt> hi im using 9.10 on my mac book pro with nvidia 9400M. when i plug in my external monitor (native 1680x1050) and use the nvidia tool ican only choose resolutions up to 1280x1024. any idea how to fix this?
[16:31] <abadabad00> Hello. I am running Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit and recently installed Google Earth 5.1 (from the bin file provided on the Google Earth Website). The program runs okay, but the font size is really really small. I've had this problem with earlier versions of GE, but I can't seem to fix it with this one. Can anyone help?
[16:31] <Alan502> koichirose, it also depends on your ram... on the usage of your disk.. but it will take long
[16:32] <DasEi> hyatt: you will need a section in your xorg for the second moni
[16:33] <koichirose> Alan502, the disk is new, so no usage, I have 4gb ram, on ubuntu 64bit. Am I looking at 20 minutes, 1 hour, 7 hours?
[16:33] <DasEi> hyatt: you can try sudo nvidia-settings, then configure twinview to detect second moni
[16:33] <hyatt> DasEi: i used the nvidia-xconfig tool to create the xorg, but its true there isnt a extra section in the xorg or the specific monitor
[16:33] <Norse_Nemo> koichirose: just throwing a partition on it will only take a few minutes
[16:33] <abadabad00> Hello. I am running Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit and recently installed Google Earth 5.1 (from the bin file provided on the Google Earth Website). The program runs okay, but the font size is really really small. I've had this problem with earlier versions of GE, but I can't seem to fix it with this one. Can anyone help?
[16:34] <Aled> I ran this command and installed LAMP "sudo tasksel install lamp-server"
[16:34] <koichirose> Norse_Nemo, it's been approx. half an hour now
[16:34] <Alan502> koichirose, some between 1 and 3 hours
[16:34] <hyatt> DasEi: thats what i did,... maybe i really have to add the monitor in the xorg myself
[16:34] <Aled> However it dosen't have phpMyAdmin included with it, I ran "sudo apt-get install phpmyadmin" but it didn't work
[16:34] <hyatt> DasEi: thanks for the info
[16:34] <Aled> How would I install phpMyAdmin for use with the LAMP stack?
[16:34] <Slart> koichirose: I'm not sure how long it took on my system.. I only created an 1.2 GB ext4 though.. it was enough time for me to go do something else.. might have been an hour or so
[16:34] <Norse_Nemo> koichirose: alan502 is probably right
[16:35] <koichirose> Norse_Nemo, Alan502, just finished (approx 40 min for the record :) )
[16:35] <Aled> Oh nevermind, installation instructions are on the page I found the command on
[16:35] <abadabad00> fixed it myself
[16:37] <ironfoot495> HI all I'm trying t install a program but it says It can't find glib any had this problem?
[16:37] <DasEi> hyatt: I use no mac here, but my nvidia tool let's me (auto)detect displays , aslo different ones
[16:37] <DasEi> also*
[16:37] <Aled> Is there a User Interface for lamp-server?
[16:37] <llutz> Aled: vi :)
[16:38] <Aled> Can I restart, stop and start Apache or PHP from within it?
[16:38] <llutz> Aled: use "sudo service $servicename start/stop" to do
[16:38] <ice_age_> Any indians here? What is your response to this: http://agnipulse.com/2009/05/10-reasons-why-ubuntu-is-a-big-failure-in-india/.
[16:38] <Alan502_> ironfoot495, try 'sudo apt-get install glib' and then run the installer again
[16:39] <Aled> $servicename being apache2?
[16:39] <jMyles> I have an ubuntu-server with two NICs.  I believe it is properly configured as a gateway, but it does not forward packets.  How can I troubleshoot this?
[16:39] <recmajkemi_> i loose sound after hibernation or temporary system stop
[16:39] <ironfoot495> Alan502_: ok
[16:39] <Aled> Thanks, worked
[16:40] <maxxer> hi. i confiugured 9.04 for autologin. how do I disable password asking for keyring?
[16:40] <jbroome> jMyles: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202100
[16:40] <recmajkemi_> maxxer: jujst leave blank password
[16:40] <ironfoot495> Alan502_: say can't find package glib
[16:41] <maxxer> recmajkemi_, the system is configured already, and keyring too...
[16:41] <Cynix01> how i can kill a allready exec based shell on xchat ?
[16:41] <Thaxll> Hello, I've a question about graphics drivers and kernel, If my kernel is updated is normal that graphic drivers are no longer use after the update ?
[16:41] <Cynix01> if i make
[16:41] <olof_> Hi, I've got two wifi-cards. When disabling the built-in one on my Laptop, it disables my USB-wifi card too.
[16:41] <Cynix01> ./exec ps -A
[16:41] <zig_> How viable is using LVM for the mirroring technology instead of MD (RAID1)
[16:41] <Cynix01> A process is already running
[16:42] <Norse_Nemo> blackxored: just found out it is not in the repos because it is a developers release
[16:42] <Alan502_> ironfoot495, sorry 'sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-0'
[16:42] <morstable> use pkill cynix01
[16:42] <IdleOne> Thaxll: if you installed proprietary drivers you will need to reinstall after a kernel upgrade
[16:42] <Thaxll> Why ?
[16:42] <morstable> driver issue olof_
[16:42] <Cynix01> morstable,  its working multiple in xchat ?
[16:42] <blackxored> Norse_Nemo, hehehe, also there's not because it forkes xulrunner heavily, and won't build with normal xulrunner, so in the meantime, I'll skip to the tarball
[16:43] <IdleOne> Thaxll: because the driver was installed/configured to work with the kernel
[16:43] <morstable> ooohhhhhh
[16:43] <jMyles> jbroome: I had already made the adjustments mentioned in that article.  I'm looking for a way to figure out where the packets are being stopped or dropped - how can I do this?
[16:43] <ironfoot495> Alan502_: libglib2.0-0 is already the newest version.
[16:43] <morstable> idelone is good
[16:43] <Cynix01> how i can make multible exec ?
[16:43] <Cynix01> on xchat ?
[16:43] <jbroome> jMyles: you reboot after change?
[16:43] <Norse_Nemo> blackxored: right on, have you installed yet?
[16:43] <DasEi> zig_: I never head lvm is doing mirroring, got a link ?
[16:43] <jMyles> jbroome: yep
[16:43] <Thaxll> Ok, but 2.6.31-16 -> 2.6.31-17 I tought it was a minor update :[ thanks for the response
[16:43] <ice_age_> Expert opino
[16:43] <Alan502_> err, ironfoot495 , which package is it?
[16:44] <jbroome> jMyles: tcpdump is your friend.  internal iface if stuff isn't getting out, external iface if stuff isn't getting in
[16:44] <olof_> morstable: then how would i know wich one being used?
[16:45] <jMyles> jbroome: I don't know anything about tcpdump?  Where should I start?  man tcpdump?  I often find that man pages are over my head until I had a softer introduction.
[16:45] <morstable> ima man on tcpdump; thanks guys | halt
[16:45] <ironfoot495> Alan502_: I tried installing the package you just suggested libglib2.0-0
[16:45] <packetcase> I've got some partitioning problems. On my hard drive I have four partitions: Free space1, swap, linux, free space2. How can I merge the free space into one partition?
[16:45] <Norse_Nemo> packetcase: are you trying to maintain any data?
[16:46] <Leoneof`> hi, anyone can tell me how to share internet connection? i've wireless connected by (ppp0) and want to share it to LAN(eth0)
[16:46] <bastid_raZor> packetcase: unless freespace 1 and 2 are side by side you can not.
[16:46] <packetcase> Norse_Nemo: Yes
[16:46] <DasEi> packetcase: got to use a live cd, first delete swap, too, then set it up at another location later, correct uuid of fstab
[16:47] <DasEi> !blkid
[16:47] <DasEi> packetcase: have you got a live cd handy ?
[16:48] <packetcase> Yes
[16:48] <DasEi> packetcase: bott it and come back in, then get it done
[16:48] <DasEi> boot*
[16:48] <packetcase> DasEi: Done.
[16:48] <om26er-> is there a way for empathy not to save my password?
[16:49] <Leoneof`> !ics
[16:49] <DasEi> packetcase: hehe, k : sudo apt-get install gparted (if not already there)
[16:49] <Leoneof`> !ppp0
[16:49] <Hearit> Hello, i forget my "mysql -u root --password= ?        i forgeit it,  :(
[16:50] <Leoneof`> !pppoe
[16:50] <Hearit> now what?, i cant remove, it want the password again
[16:50] <genii> Hearit: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql/171366
[16:50] <jMyles> jbroome: when I run tcpdump host <the host>, nothing is shown, even if I ssh in from the host.
[16:51] <mondragon> Anyone know how to enable the framebuffer console on 9.10 server?
[16:51] <Hearit> genii, thanks i will try
[16:52] <zig_> Does Ubuntu 9.10 use LVM2?
[16:53] <rob_p> jMyles: What are you trying to do with tcpdump?
[16:53] <packetcase> DasEi: What to do with gparted?
[16:53] <bakerman> zig_ :  lvm2                                                     2.02.39-0ubuntu11
[16:53] <Pici> zig_: yes
[16:54] <zig_> I see.
[16:54] <zig_> Well, I've read reports that LVM2 mirroring is actually faster than MD RAID1
[16:54] <jMyles> rob_p: I have an ubuntu-server with two NICs that I am trying to use as a gateway / router.  It can see both ways, but it is not forwarding packets.  I am trying to determine why, and also to learn more about this configuration in a general way.
[16:54] <zig_> By a significant amount (2x speed?: http://www.joshbryan.com/blog/2008/01/02/lvm2-mirrors-vs-md-raid-1/)
[16:54] <Hearit> genii, not work
[16:54] <zig_> I was wondering if anyone here had any experience with LVM2 mirroring
[16:55] <zig_> If it's possible to mirror data in a stable fashion with LVM, I would just as soon not use MD
[16:55] <geitenneuker> hello welcome
[16:55] <genii> Hearit: Which part?
[16:55] <rob_p> jMyles: I see.  Do you have a local keyboard and monitor on it or just remote access like with ssh?
[16:56] <geitenneuker> !seem kameelneuker
[16:56] <packetcase> DasEi: What to do with gparted?
[16:56] <Hearit> i think step 3
[16:56] <DasEi> zig_: as said above, I never heard of mirroring by lvm, either use some kind of raid or just have a backupsolution like rsync
[16:56] <rob_p> jMyles: The reason I ask is that you will want to put some filtering on your packet dump if you are remoting in (like ignore ssh packets).
[16:57] <DasEi> packetcase: sudo gparted
[16:57] <Norse_Nemo> odd question hear, Is it possible to set a computer to use seperate mouse and keyboard per monitor without expensive software?
[16:57] <packetcase> DasEi: HAL daemon is not started:-(
[16:58] <nomnex> someone with 9.10 + a HD USB for backup (USB stick/External HD USB) formatted ext4 can talk to me?
[16:58] <DasEi> packetcase: sudo /etc/init.d/hal restart
[16:58] <DasEi> nomnex: details ?
[16:59] <recmajkemi> where is firestarter executable?
[16:59] <airstrike> aghh.. flash apps hang every page i open on either chrome or firefox. how can i make sure i have the fastest/most stable version installed?
[16:59] <olof> Is there any audio guru here? My speaker sound doesnt work (earphone does). Ubuntu 9.10 32bit. Gateway 6860fx laptop. Been googling for days without succes.
[16:59] <nomnex> DasEi, on 9.04 when I plug the device /media it auto mounts as root:root, on 9.10 as user:user is this correct?
[16:59] <rob_p> jMyles: Still with me?
[16:59] <packetcase> DasEi: I'm working from the command line, can't run gparted.
[16:59] <bakerman> zig_: think that startup from lvm mirror is a problem at the moment
[17:00] <nomnex> DasEi, defaut auto-mount permissions question among 2 versions 9.04/9.10 for usb devices
[17:00] <neezer> what is libpam0g?
[17:00] <recmajkemi> olof: does it stop working after hibernation  or it doesn't work at all?
[17:00] <DasEi> nomnex: that depends on the system setting, but you can put it's uuid in fatb and give it either user or root permission
[17:01] <DasEi> packetcase: I asked you to boot a live cd, you said done . . ?
[17:01] <packetcase> DasEi: Yes, but no GUI.
[17:01] <olof> recmajkemi: it's not working at all. (only earphones)
[17:02] <nomnex> DasEi, I know that, but what about the default setting. I put a usb drive ext4 in a 9.10 and I got surprised by the default permissions change from root:root to user:user, I am looking for the information if it is default on 9.10 of machine specific
[17:02] <the_real_dave> Can I ask, what's the best version of flash to use for 64bit 9.10? The one from Adobe's site or another one?
[17:02] <nomnex> DasEi, still 9.04 here
[17:02] <packetcase> DasEi: Will it be possible to accomplish without using gparted?
[17:02] <DasEi> !pm | master_
[17:03] <rob_p> jMyles: I guess you figured it out on your own.
[17:03] <coolcat> hi, I've installed drupal on ubuntu via apt-get, everything seems to be fine but I do not find drupal's registration page on /var/www could someone help me finding it?
[17:04] <DasEi> packetcase: yes , can use command line tools with zyclinders, but I won't help there, too much hassle and can easily cause harm, man mkfs is waht you want
[17:05] <bakerman> coolcat: dpkg -L drupal6   shows the contents of the package, this might lead to something
[17:05] <packetcase> DasEi: I do not have any valuable data on my hard disk, I just want to avoid reformating and reinstallation.
[17:07] <Hearit> when i type su
[17:07] <Hearit> and enter my user pass, fail, why?
[17:07] <llutz> Hearit: use "sudo -i"
[17:07] <DasEi> packetcase: so why not use the convient live cd ? or just put the iso on a usb stick to even save a cd
[17:08] <bakerman> Hearit: for su you need the root password which you don't have
[17:08] <olof> recmajkemi: did u have a solution?
[17:09] <Norse_Nemo> Hearit: if you want a console that will remain root, you can use sudo -s
[17:09] <syockit> bakerman: does the password for su exist by default?
[17:09] <DasEi> syockit: no, see:
[17:09] <DasEi> !sudo
[17:10] <Norse_Nemo> syockit: the sudo password is your username passwrd
[17:10] <the_real_dave> syockit: Sorry for butting in but no, that's the root account. Use sudo passwd to create a password for it
[17:10] <DasEi> !root | syockit:
[17:10] <recmajkemi> olof: Sorry I just have similar problem, but my sound does not work only after logout on laptop. What kind of computer do you have? desktop laptop?
[17:11] <olof> gateway 6860fx laptop
[17:11] <jMyles> rob_p: I'm so sorry to walk away - I'm starting a coffee shop (that's what the gateway is for) and I had to server some customers.  :-)
[17:11] <jMyles> rob_p: Yes, I mostly ssh in, but I have a head on it for now.
[17:11] <opex1> how to change default security settings when usb devices are automounted? ubuntu 9.10 creates mount point for them with 0700 security mode, I need 0666
[17:11] <rob_p> jMyles: Oh, no problem.  :-)
[17:11] <DasEi> nomnex: I think that diffrence may be in ext3/4, too
[17:12] <jMyles> rob_p: My girlfriend and I are starting a tech cafe - fair trade coffee and free software evangelism. :-)
[17:12] <ice_age> syockit: the root password does not exist in ubuntu. You have to create it if you want. sudo passwd root
[17:12] <Pici> !noroot | ice_age syockit
[17:12] <the_real_dave> jMyles: that sounds like a really cool idea! :D Best of luck:D
[17:12] <rob_p> jMyles: I understand.  So if you want to watch the packet dump of the interface you are coming in on, you can do, "sudo tcpdump -i <ethx> ! tcp port 32"
[17:12] <jMyles> !root | syockit
[17:12] <grawity> opex1: Last time I had to do that, it was in gconf-editor. But I heard one now needs to mess with HAL configuration... eh, open gconf-editor and look under the /system branch. (Also, if by "mount point" you meant the directory, then you wouldn't be able to access it with 0666 - you'd need 0777.)
[17:13] <rob_p> jMyles: Sounds interesting!
[17:13] <rob_p> jMyles: I wish you all the luck.
[17:13] <the_real_dave> Can I ask, what's the best version of flash to use for 64bit 9.10? The one from Adobe's site or another one?
[17:13] <jMyles> rob_p: I figured out tcpdump -i ethx - then I also need to specify the ports I want to watch?
[17:13] <ice_age> ubottu Pici: I know that but there should be a way for teh
[17:13] <syockit> argh I'm being bombed about the philosophy behind no root password!
[17:13] <Slart> the_real_dave: for functionality.. go with the one from adobe
[17:14] <jMyles> rob_p: What I really want to know is this: Is the gateway attempting to forward packets?  If so, why aren't they making it?
[17:14] <the_real_dave> Slart: thank you :)
[17:14] <rob_p> jMyles: By default, it will dump all packets.  If you want to target some ports, you have to specify them.
[17:14] <ice_age> syockit: you can create if you like as i said. It is present in other distros like fedora
[17:14] <jMyles> rob_p: Gotcha.  Well, when I watch all ports, nothing happens when I client tries to ping ubuntu.com.
[17:14] <zig_> Is there a tool like system-config-lvm that won't wipe one's RAID setup?
[17:14] <rob_p> jMyles: For instance, if you wanted to see what http requests were going out from the gateway box to the 'Net, you would do something like:  sudo tcpdump -i ethx tcp port 80
[17:15] <jMyles> rob_p: I suspect that the clients don't understand who their gateway is.
[17:15] <zig_> Palimpset doesn't seem to care much for resizing LV's (and their related filesystem)
[17:15] <syockit> ice_age: no, it's just funny how everyone rushes to answer that particular question. Anyways, thank you all for attention and answer!
[17:15] <bakerman> syockit: that's for security reasons, so nobody has to login as root and is doing standard work with full root credentials - that's my interpretation
[17:15] <ice_age> sudo help to delegate/negotiate for just one instance and considered safer security wise
[17:16] <recmajkemi> olof: did you try to type alsamixer in terminal and there change some settings?
[17:16] <rob_p> jMyles: If you are trying to do a packet dump on the same interface that you are connecting remotely to, you will need to include, "! tcp port 32" otherwise you will be overwhelmed with ssh traffic packets.
[17:16] <grawity> rob_p: Doesn't SSH usually run on port 22?
[17:17] <rob_p> grawity: Yup!  typo!  :-|
[17:17] <Markive> Hi All, I want to connect my ubuntu to a wireless printer thats on the network any ideas?
[17:17] <jMyles> rob_p: why 32 and not 22?
[17:17] <grawity> Also, you'll probably need to use \! instead.
[17:17] <rob_p> jMyles: It's port 22, not 32..
[17:17] <olof> recmajkemi: i dont know what to change there?
[17:17] <rob_p> jMyles: typo
[17:17] <olof> recmajkemi: just randomly change?
[17:18] <rob_p> jMyles: Have you configured the gateway to hand out DHCP leases on the local network?
[17:18] <Norse_Nemo> markive: ubuntu printer discovery should find it
[17:19] <c0p3rn1c> can someone help me with pgp signing ?
[17:19] <c0p3rn1c> gpg -sign-key key.asc --sign database.sql.gz
[17:19] <rob_p> jMyles: If so, the clients should know where the gateway is... provided you configured the DHCP server correctly.
[17:19] <c0p3rn1c> doesnt work :S
[17:19] <jMyles> rob_p: I think so - using dhcp3-server.  However, it doesn't seem to do it quite right.  I also need help with that, but I thought I'd get a static route first.  Maybe I should just get the dhcp working right from the get go
[17:19] <Markive> Norse_Nemo can you tell me where i might find it?
[17:19] <Markive> pleaswe
[17:19] <rob_p> jMyles: Might I suggest dnsmasq?
[17:20] <jMyles> rob_p: You aren't the first - I've seen it in guides and forum posts, but I do not understand what dnsmasq is.
[17:20] <Norse_Nemo> Markive System -> Administration ->  Printing
[17:20] <stasikos> is there any limitation for ubuntu kernel to see more than 8 cpus at x86_64? CONFIG_NR_CPUS shows 64
[17:20] <rob_p> jMyles: dhcp3-server is fine but dnsmasq is easier and includes DNS service cacheing and forwarding for your clients.
[17:20] <grawity> jMyles: dnsmasq is a lightweight DNS and DHCP server, intended for use in home networks.
[17:20] <Markive> Norse_Nemo Thanks very much
[17:20] <Norse_Nemo> markive: you are very welcome
[17:21] <rob_p> jMyles: It's simply a DHCP server that also provides DNS service to your local clients.
[17:21] <Oli``> Can UFW (or anything else) limit applications to specific interfaces? eg Samba to eth0 and Deluge to ra0 (wireless), etc...
[17:21] <jMyles> rob_p: Will I miss some features of dhcp3-server if our network grows very large (throughout our small town)?
[17:21] <recmajkemi> olof: nom just toggle mute mode on speakers
[17:21] <rob_p> jMyles: I doubt it... can't think of any off the top of my head.
[17:21] <gasmask> Getting an error in Xsane: "Failed to start scanner: Document feeder out of documents". It scans via flat-bed, but not threw the ADF which is what I want. Any help?
[17:21] <grawity> Oli``: I think iptables (the usual Linux firewall) allows filtering by pid. But I don't think it can do process names...
[17:22] <grawity> Oli``: Why don't you just configure, for example, Samba to only listen on eth0?
[17:22] <jMyles> rob_p: OK, let's do it.  I already installed it from synaptic.
[17:22] <rob_p> jMyles: You will find the configuration file in /etc
[17:22] <Oli``> grawity: that works for Samba because it allows it... It doesn't for apps that are interface agnostic (like deluge)
[17:22] <rob_p> jMyles: I think it's something like dnsmasq.conf or similar...
[17:23] <ravindu> I want to create costomized ubuntu cd like other distros like Mint etc.. where to start?
[17:23] <grawity> !remaster | ravindu
[17:23] <grawity> Oli``: you sure it doesn't have a "bind address" or whatever? Most P2P apps I've used had that.
[17:23] <rob_p> jMyles: Make a backup of the original before modifying it.  (cp ./dnsmasq.conf ./dnsmasq.conf_orig)
[17:23] <Norse_Nemo> ubottu: i think im in love
[17:24] <c0p3rn1c> !pgp
[17:24] <Oli``> grawity: it has a setting but it's not implemented that I can see
[17:24] <rob_p> jMyles: The configuration file is quite big but you will only need to make a couple of small changes to it and you'll be up and running.
[17:25] <jMyles> rob_p: Do I need to disable dhcp3-server before proceeding?
[17:25] <ravindu> grawity thanks for links
[17:25] <rob_p> jMyles: You will be surprised at how much customization it offers.  It's a lot more versatile than dhcp3-server.
[17:25] <jMyles> rob_p: I have the config file open.
[17:25] <rob_p> jMyles: Yes.  Disable and remove dhcp3-server.
[17:26] <grawity> Oli``: in that case, add a rule for deluge's PID when you start it? ip6?tables can filter by process ID, I'm sure.
[17:26] <Oli``> grawity: I'll look into it
[17:26] <zig_> How does one get into rescue mode for an Ubuntu Server 9.10 installation?
[17:26] <zig_> The bootloader doesn't appear to come up at all, just loads things...
[17:26] <jMyles> rob_p: done.
[17:26] <c0p3rn1c> pff I can't figure out how to sign a file with my public key :(
[17:26] <grawity> zig_: Does it at least prompt you to press 'ESC'?
[17:26] <rob_p> jMyles: Let me see if I can find an old config around here.
[17:27] <rob_p> jMyles: stand by...
[17:27] <grawity> c0p3rn1c: What kind of key, GPG?
[17:27] <jMyles> rob_p: I can pastebin it if that's easier
[17:27] <zig_> grawity: Nope
[17:27] <c0p3rn1c> gravity: pgp yes
[17:27] <zig_> Default installation, too
[17:27] <grawity> c0p3rn1c: gpg -b file.txt (or gpg --detach-sign file.txt) for a detached signature (one that is written to a separate file).
[17:28] <pwk> hi, I installed 9.10 using alternate and the encrypted system via LVM option. Now I would like the system to also mount /home from my second hard disk, encrypted also (with same pw), where do I edit? I looked in init /etc/initramfs-tools folder, but there are no files there....
[17:28] <grawity> c0p3rn1c: gpg --clearsign file.txt <-- this one would sign the file's contents, and put the signature inside it. Only works for text.
[17:28] <grawity> c0p3rn1c: Optionally add --armor for the signature to be in plain text.
[17:29] <c0p3rn1c> I have a seperate file with a public key provided
[17:29] <c0p3rn1c> I have to sign a database with this key.asc file
[17:29] <gasmask>  Getting an error in Xsane: "Failed to start scanner: Document feeder out of documents". It scans via flat-bed, but not threw the ADF which is what I want. Any help?
[17:30] <c0p3rn1c> grawity, how can I encrypt this database.sql with this key.asc ?
[17:30] <rob_p> jMyles: Open it up in a text editor and go down to the line, "#interface"
[17:31] <grawity> c0p3rn1c: First import that key to your keyring, using gpg --import
[17:31] <rob_p> jMyles: approx line 85
[17:31] <c0p3rn1c> grawity: i did that
[17:31] <c0p3rn1c> and then ?
[17:31] <jMyles> rob_p: I'm there.
[17:31] <grawity> c0p3rn1c: Then ... wait, do you want to encrypt it or sign? Or both at the same time?
[17:31] <rob_p> jMyles: Uncomment it (remove the # from it) and assign the internal interface to it.
[17:31] <pwk> when I install via LVM + encryption, where is the script that mounts my partitions during startup?
[17:32] <c0p3rn1c> grawity: both
[17:32] <grawity> c0p3rn1c: gpg -r <recipients-key-id-here> -se database.sql
[17:32] <jMyles> rob_p: done.
[17:32] <zig_> There also doesn't appear to be a menu.lst on this installation...
[17:32] <rob_p> jMyles: Now go down to line 103 and uncomment, "#bind-interfaces"
[17:32] <grawity> zig_: grub2 doesn't have that, it uses grub.conf or something like that.
[17:33] <rob_p> jMyles: That directive doesn't take any arguments... just uncomment it.
[17:33] <grawity> c0p3rn1c: After -r, put the key ID of the recipient's key.
[17:33] <the_real_dave> zig_: grub2 uses grub.cfg instead
[17:33] <jMyles> rob_p: ok, done
[17:34] <rob_p> jMyles: Now line 137, "#dhcp-range=<IP_ADDRESS>,<IP_ADDRESS>,12h" remove the comment and put in your applicable network range (for DHCP leases you want it to hand out).
[17:34] <zig_> I see there's a warning in grub.cfg, telling me not to edit it =)
[17:34] <zig_> What interface would one use to modify the configuration of grub2?
[17:35] <pwk_> hi, I installed 9.10 using the alternate CD and I selected LVM + encrypted. Now I want to make it mount my /home from a second hard-drive. This also needs to be decrypted (using same pw as "/"), where can I set that?
[17:35] <ZykoticK9> !grub2 | zig_
[17:35] <Lungan> why doesnt microphone work in skype ubuntu?
[17:36] <jMyles> rob_p: You know, I actually wondered about this.  We are in a very densely populated block, and just for novelty sake, I'd like to hand out ips other than 192.168.whatever - can I do this?
[17:36] <pwk_> i thought that the decryption process is configured in /etc/initramfs-tools scripts, but that is empty
[17:36] <zig_> ZykoticK9: Thanks
[17:36] <Lungan> Having trouble with Skype on ubuntu, mic doesn't work using pulse audio (orginal in ubuntu 9.10)
[17:36] <grawity> pwk_: /etc/crypttab?
[17:36] <llutz> jMyles: use 10.x.x.x network
[17:36] <Joss__> hello
[17:36] <DasEi> Lungan: either it is muted or pulseaudio isn't correctly set (esd by default I tink, got to re-link it)
[17:36] <rob_p> jMyles: That should get you a working configuration.  Basically we have forced it to bind only to your internal interface (obvious reasons) and defined the range it will hand out.
[17:36] <wildc4rd> evening all
[17:36] <grawity> jMyles: Use IPv6 :D
[17:37] <rob_p> jMyles: Yes.
[17:37] <jMyles> grawity, rob_p, llutz: can I just put 10.x.x.x and it will work?  Also, yes, I want to make IPv6 the focus of our network - I need some advice on that matter as well.
[17:37] <pwk_> grawity, well that file only has one entry, for sda1_crypt, no where there is mentioned my swap nor what pws to use
[17:37] <rob_p> jMyles: You could use a private class A range in the <IP_ADDRESS>/8 network if you like.
[17:37] <Lungan> DasEi, and how do I solve that problem? Im pretty noob
[17:37] <scott___1> ok so what would cause an instllation to freeze before even starting?
[17:37] <DasEi> Lungan: sudo apt-get install gnaome-alsamixer
[17:38] <DasEi> Lungan: sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer
[17:38] <pwk_> grawity, I assume the way it works is it decryptes "/" and then runs some script on "/" to decrypt the other ones?
[17:38] <scott___1> we have a pc which im installing 9.10 desktop, and no matter which menu option is chosen, it freezes there
[17:38] <scott___1> is there some kind of was around this?
[17:38] <Lungan> DasEi, I have alsamixer installed
[17:38] <Cubuntu> help me, I found three choice os when start my laptop
[17:38] <marks256> i have a static route setup so that 192.168.0.x traffic is routed to eth1. I have a web server on <IP_ADDRESS>, and can ping it. but firefox will not connect to it (i know the web server works). How do i fix this?
[17:38] <Norse_Nemo> scott____1: at wat menu part does it freeze?
[17:39] <rob_p> jMyles: Once you have your config file the way you want it, you will need to (re)start the service.
[17:39] <scott___1> Norse_Nemo: any of the options cause freeze
[17:39] <grawity> jMyles: yeah, just use <IP_ADDRESS> the same way you used <IP_ADDRESS>/24 previously. Just beware that you'll probably want to change netmask - usually 10.x.0.0/16 is used, so 10.x.0.0/<IP_ADDRESS> or somtehing.
[17:39] <scott___1> especially the install option
[17:39] <DasEi> Lungan: and checked the mic to be unmuted ?
[17:39] <Norse_Nemo> scott____1: sounds like a bad install media
[17:39] <Lungan> DasEi, Now its unmuted but still doesn't work
[17:39] <scott___1> Norse_Nemo: even checking the disc freezes
[17:39] <nomnex> DasEi, I was watching a movie. I will try that on another 9.10 there could be some change in the default permissions for auto mount usb devices in 9.10 to avoid the default root:root permission on USB HD. It could make sens. Anyway the movie is freaking thrilling. It's RUINS. I get back to it. Will check the IRC log for eventual answer later on. Bye
[17:40] <scott___1> Norse_Nemo: failed burn?
[17:40] <Norse_Nemo> scott____1: sounds about right
[17:41] <rob_p> jMyles: "/etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart" should get it up and going with the new config
[17:41] <Norse_Nemo> scott___1: try booting the CD ona  different system
[17:42] <maverick> i installed the lastest version of CCC from the ati website..but it is not getting listed as installed in Hardware Drivers...as i result i cannot enable visual effects..any ideas?
[17:42] <luux> how ya`ll doin my negroes!!
[17:43] <DasEi> Lungan: http://tinyurl.com/4d7lk3
[17:43] <luux> I be needin help
[17:43] <jMyles> grawity, rob_p: ok, it's time for a confession.  All my life, I've seen "netmask," and I've even ready the wikipedia article on it, but for the life of me, I do not know what a netmask is or what it does.  I also just blindly put "<IP_ADDRESS>" wherever I see it.  Can you briefly explain how it applies here?
[17:44] <Norse_Nemo> jMyles: the Subnet does mostly what the name sounds like, it is a sub network
[17:44] <DasEi> maverick: ati's propitary aren't supportedsince > xorg 7.2 ; got to use the opensource drivers, which card ?
[17:44] <JakobLaursen> How do I install a Canon PIXMA MP800?
[17:44] <macbook> today is a good day, I got ubuntu to work as my main system
[17:44] <rob_p> jMyles: It's not something that can just easily be explained.
[17:45] <maverick> DasEi: ATI HD 4850..i read that 3d is not supported fully for this card in the open soure drivers :(
[17:45] <olof> When booting up my PC, it says (in bios) System and Video BIOS Shadowed. It stays for a bout a minute, then detects HDD, init mouse, then load up Ubuntu. My dvd drive seems to be dead, could it be a problem with that?
[17:45] <grawity> jMyles: I'm bad at explaining things... but it works kinda like this. When you have an IP address, for example, <IP_ADDRESS>, you can find out the network address like this: <IP_ADDRESS> & <IP_ADDRESS> = <IP_ADDRESS> (& means binary AND)
[17:45] <grawity> jMyles: Wikipedia has a few pages on netmasks and subnetting.
[17:45] <grawity> jMyles: Or just convert all those numbers to binary and you'll see everything.
[17:45] <rob_p> jMyles: I've got a Network+ book sitting here in front of me... It's 2.5 inches thick and has a whole chapter about subnetting!
[17:45] <maverick> DasEi: but if i install the hardware drivers (fglrx) from the repos, i can use it properly..
[17:46] <malgorath> anyone know how to change the key repeat in gnome? lik eholding down W in games cause me to jerk not run
[17:46] <JakobLaursen> What driver can I use for PIXMA MP800 printer?
[17:46] <DasEi> maverick: as is, there are rumors going on ad on about ati openig, but I also swtched to nv because of this, that card is supported open source very well, keep on asking for s.o. having it, fglrx an radeondriver is what you need
[17:46] <macbook> there are subnetting websites
[17:46] <ZykoticK9> JakobLaursen, have you seen http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Canon-PIXMA_MP800
[17:46] <macbook> i have a subneting app on my iphone
[17:47] <JakobLaursen> ZykoticK9: No.. I'll try it
[17:47] <rob_p> jMyles: I hate to say it, but you're going to have to get a book or just google it!  <-- I don't usually like to tell people this but in this case, it's the only practical suggestion!
[17:47] <DasEi> maverick: just to calm you  with los of "friggling" I even had my old x 1650 to do compiz
[17:48] <maverick> DasEi: so, shall i remove fglrx and install the open source drivers?
[17:48] <monk> can someone help me configure grub to add windows to the list, its on a separate drive
[17:48] <maverick> DasEi: cool :D..
[17:48] <jMyles> rob_p: OK, I'll try again.  I have tried in the past, but without a good real-life working example (and somebody to bonk me in the head and say "See!  RIght there!") it's been tough for me to get a grasp
[17:48] <gasmask>  Getting an error in Xsane: "Failed to start scanner: Document feeder out of documents". It scans via flat-bed, but not threw the ADF which is what I want. Any help?
[17:49] <rob_p> macbook: True, there are apps and sites that can calculate it for you.  But if you want to *understand* what it's all about, you need to study it a bit.
[17:49] <jMyles> rob_p: So for now, since I have the dhcp range from <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS>, where do I set the netmask?
[17:49] <shafi> I have ubuntu 9.10 and I can't mount my Android G1 phone, any idea?
[17:49] <macbook> yes rob_p i was also in a networking class, it would be hard to explain. without a whiteboard
[17:49] <bharani> i dont know ubentu
[17:49] <bharani> just now i installed
[17:50] <crisb2010> hey there
[17:50] <hamzaatova2> will you tell me how to record from myspace player???????????
[17:50] <rob_p> jMyles: You could use <IP_ADDRESS> if you only want 255... if you want more, adjust your subnet accordingly.
[17:50] <Guest6227> i want to format my pen drive
[17:50] <ardchoille> I'm using Karmic and I have some fodler in $HOME that have images on them, these are the special folders Public, Template, Documents. etc. How do I remove the images on these and just revert back to a normal folder icon?
[17:50] <DasEi> maverick: I don't know for this card, I used fglrx wih open radeon on an 1650
[17:50] <jMyles> rob_p: Do you mean if I only want 255 simultaneous leases?  What would the according adjustment be?
[17:50] <Norse_Nemo> jMyles: meet me in Private chat
[17:51] <rob_p> jMyles: For <IP_ADDRESS> - <IP_ADDRESS>, you would use a netmask of <IP_ADDRESS>.
[17:51] <crisb2010> i am experienced problems with mysql and karmic 64bit, i found this forum post (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1313834). can someone explain to me what exactly "I disabled the write barrier mode" means?
[17:51] <Guest6227> is there  temrminal comment ther
[17:51] <jMyles> rob_p: I see!
[17:51] <maverick> DasEi: google tells me that my card is supported, no harm in trying...removed fglrx just now..thank you :)
[17:51] <rob_p> jMyles: <IP_ADDRESS>
[17:51] <Guest6227> how to format pen drive
[17:51] <grawity> Guest6227: mkfs
[17:52] <monk> gparted
[17:52] <Guest6227> yes
[17:52] <Guest6227> tell me
[17:52] <philyaw> can someone tell me how to get a process list?
[17:52] <philyaw> so that i can kill amarok
[17:52] <philyaw> which locks up constantly
[17:52] <Guest6227> just if i type mkfs
[17:53] <Norse_Nemo> guest6227 System -> Administration -> Disk Utility
[17:53] <rob_p> jMyles: You can further break it into different netmask/hostmask sizes by changing the bits in the subnet mask.  But for your situation, just stick with something simple.
[17:53] <macbook> on my panel i have system monitor open tha up
[17:53] <Guest6227> in terminal it format my drive man
[17:53] <jMyles> rob_p: Understood.
[17:53] <DasEi> philyaw: top or htop
[17:53] <DasEi> philyaw: top or htop
[17:53] <acicula> Guest6227: thats what mkfs does
[17:53] <DasEi> philyaw: man ps
[17:53] <rob_p> philyaw: ps -A | grep amarok
[17:53] <macbook> yeah amarok don't work so well on ubuntu.. kubuntu fine
[17:53] <sixtila> these days i get quite a few Unlock Keyring request. is /usr/lib/telepathy/mission-control-5 a genuine one?
[17:53] <neezer> I think I just did an upgrade to 9.10!!!
[17:53] <ysmn2> how do i change the startup boot order n grub?
[17:53] <neezer> Is there a way I can check what version I'm running?
[17:54] <jMyles> rob_p: I am getting dnsmasq: failed to bind listening socket for fe80::240:f4ff:fe58:738b: Address already in use
[17:54] <macbook> yeah 9.1 here on macbook everything is good
[17:54] <DasEi> congrats, neezer
[17:54] <DasEi> !version | neezer
[17:54] <sixtila>  these days i get quite a few Unlock Keyring request. is /usr/lib/telepathy/mission-control-5 a genuine one?
[17:54] <OerHeks> neezer uname -a
[17:54] <macbook> what do people here use for torrents on ubuntu, i don't think transmission is the best
[17:54] <rob_p> ysmn2: It's in your /etc/default/grub file
[17:54] <zig_> It seems that to really manage an MD+LVM setup, one has to use the command-line
[17:54] <DasEi> OerHeks: that's just kernel, not disto-info
[17:55] <grawity> macbook: Transmission, Delige, rtorrent... There is no "best". Transmission is just the simplest.
[17:55] <grawity> !torrent
[17:55] <acicula> macbook: there are a bunch of alternatives, just search for torrent in add/remove programs?
[17:55] <zvacet> macbook : try deluge if you don´t like transmission
[17:55] <neezer> OerHeks...that doesn't tell me, but lsb_release -a does.
[17:55] <neezer> I am indeed running 9.10!!
[17:55] <rob_p> ysmn2: Change the, "GRUB_DEFAULT=0" to whatever you want the default to be.
[17:55] <Lungan> Does anyone have any idea why the internal microphone on my ubuntu with skype doesn't work?
[17:55] <recmajkemi> !firewall
[17:55] <macbook> yeah i really like utorrent
[17:55] <macbook> on mac and windows
[17:55] <acicula> Lungan: most likely its muted?
[17:55] <rob_p> ysmn2: Then run, "sudo update-grub" afterwards.
[17:55] <DasEi> zig_: no, you first plan it, then use the alternate installer's manual partition
[17:55] <macbook> transmission does not dl at top speed, either does jdownloader
[17:55] <ysmn2> rob_p,  what dose the zero repersent ?
[17:56] <zig_> DasEi: I mean, for recovery purposes.
[17:56] <neezer> things seem to be working though...I got the Ubuntu music when I logged in so that is good. I did have a lot of troubles with my sound setting up 9.04 so I'm glad the changes are still working.
[17:56] <rob_p> jMyles: Sounds like another process is bound to it.  Are you sure you killed the dhcp3-server process?
[17:56] <ssix> Anyone already on 10.04 (Lucid)?
[17:56] <rob_p> ysmn2: 0 is the first entry, 1 is the second, etc.
[17:56] <philyaw> DasEi, how can I use top and man ps together... is man ps to make "top" not display a never-ending list?
[17:56] <acicula> ssix: ask in #ubuntu+1
[17:57] <macbook> is lucid the new ubuntu
[17:57] <zvacet> macbook : you can run utorrent in wine but I don´t see reason to do that
[17:57] <drizzt__> :1
[17:57] <ssix> macbook: It's the current Alpha release that will be release in april
[17:57] <drizzt__> 1:
[17:57] <drizzt__> 1
[17:57] <acicula> lucid is the _development_ version of ubuntu, which will be the next ubuntu
[17:57] <VSpike_> When booting ubuntu server, I get a blank screen unless I use the recovery option. Once booted, modprobe radeonfb gives me a nice high res console.  How can I fix that?
[17:57] <ysmn2> rob_p,  thanks man
[17:57] <grawity> philyaw: No, 'man ps' is to open the manual page of 'ps'.
[17:57] <rob_p> ysmn2: welcome
[17:57] <philyaw> !ps
[17:57] <philyaw> grawity, what is ps?
[17:58] <grawity> philyaw: I'll answer this question with "run 'man ps' and you'll know"
[17:58] <jMyles> rob_p: I removed the package, but ps ax shows dhclient running.
[17:58] <rob_p> jMyles: You aren't running bind9 on it are you?  If so, that will conflict with dnsmasq.
[17:58] <jMyles> rob_p: Perhaps it's better to just reboot.
[17:58] <ardchoille> philyaw: ps - report a snapshot of the current processes
[17:58] <philyaw> ardchoille, for the developers? like bug report?
[17:58] <rob_p> jMyles: dhclient is just a client process... probably for the WAN interface on your box.
[17:58] <ardchoille> philyaw: man ps
[17:59] <philyaw> I have another question.
[17:59] <jMyles> rob_p: Yes, I am very sorry, I was running bind9, as per the instructions on the ubuntu wiki.  I have stopped the process and removed the package, and dnsmasq now restarts successfully.
[17:59] <grawity> philyaw: Translated to plain English, it's "ps - display a list of all currently running processes"
[17:59] <DasEi> philyaw: no, rob (^above ) told you already the syntax of ps; man shows the manual of a command, just enter man ps in trml to see
[17:59] <philyaw> In konquorer or forefox streaming videos don't have sound, yet my sound still works
[17:59] <rob_p> jMyles: Cool.  Yeah, you won't be needing bind9 now!  :-)
[17:59] <philyaw> ohhhhhhhhh
[18:00]  * grawity is so tempted to say "RTFM" for once.
[18:00] <philyaw> how is ps different from top
[18:00] <ssix> grawity, don't be Debian
[18:00] <DasEi> grawity: accepted ;-)
[18:00] <acicula> ssix: neither should stuff be spoonfed
[18:00] <rob_p> jMyles: dnsmasq is pretty slick.  Sorta all-in-one service... well, several in one, I guess.  But yeah, it makes life easier.
[18:00] <macbook> does anybody have full access to hfs drive read/write
[18:01] <gustavokuklinski> :O
[18:01] <rob_p> jMyles: So now you need to test it out.  Put a client on it and configure the client to obtain a DHCP lease.
[18:01] <drizzt__> I cannot connect to Windows share with correct name/pass, any ideas anyone?
[18:01] <gustavokuklinski> ppl ?
[18:01] <macbook> something with samba
[18:02] <philyaw> How do I set my file extensions back up so that Audacity quits opening my MP3s?
[18:02] <grawity> DasEi: Is the password empty?
[18:02] <grawity> philyaw: Right-click on a .mp3 file, choose Properties. There's a tab where you can choose an application.
[18:02] <recmajkemi> !antivirus
[18:02] <grawity> eh.
[18:02] <grawity> drizzt__: is the password empty?
[18:02] <sixtila>  these days i get quite a few Unlock Keyring request. is /usr/lib/telepathy/mission-control-5 a genuine one?
[18:03] <drizzt__> grawity: no, of course
[18:03] <philyaw> grawity, thank you!
[18:03] <drizzt__> on Linux you use anti-rootits instead of antiviruses
[18:05] <the_real_dave> !nfs
[18:05] <McL0VIN> !LAMP | McL0VIN
[18:05] <Aled> Are viruses spyware?
[18:06] <grawity> Aled: Only some of them.
[18:06] <grawity> Aled: Most viruses these days just spread and send spam and spread and send spam.
[18:06] <llutz> viruses are a million dollar market, foor the "good" and the "evil"
[18:07] <macbook> anybody got HFS+ read/write priveleges working on ubuntu
[18:07] <Aled> What kind of spam?
[18:07] <Aled> I should probably wikipedia that tbh
[18:07] <philyaw> I'm still having trouble with "ps" I want to list by process id like it says in the manual... im entering "ps -p" to no avial
[18:08] <jMyles> rob_p: while restarting networking, I get no DHCPOFFERS received
[18:08] <grawity> Aled: The kind of spam that 95% of emails are.
[18:08] <Aled> ah
[18:09] <toshko> Hello good people. I have one question.. How can i make my windows transperent
[18:09] <toshko> thanks in advance
[18:09] <TheGamer81> Is this ubuntu support?
[18:09] <Pici> philyaw: ps -p filters by the process ids that follow that argument.
[18:09] <Pici> TheGamer81: Yes.
[18:09] <ZykoticK9> philyaw, perhaps "ps -A"
[18:09] <llutz> philyaw: -p needs pidlist
[18:09] <rob_p> jMyles: That's a message regarding your external interface (probably).  How does the box get it's IP address and Internet connection?  Are you sure it's still plugged into your modem/router?
[18:09] <TheGamer81> Ok because I am having problems with ubuntu locking up.
[18:10] <drizzt___> I now samba is PoS, but how can I troubleshoot my connection probem?
[18:10] <jMyles> rob_p: I'm sorry I wasn't clear: I'm getting this message on a client.  The server gets its IP address just fine and can connect to the internet.  It is plugged directly into a cable modem.
[18:10] <TheGamer81> It locks up after about 5  minutes after boot.
[18:10] <philyaw> zykotick9, that worked, but is there a way to get a list sorted in a better way?
[18:10] <rob_p> jMyles: I see.
[18:10] <suchaprettyboy> I used pppconfig to set up GPRS via mobile cell phone with Bluetooth. 'sudo pon provider-gprs' sets up the connection. But, the Empathy doesn't use such Internet access.
[18:11] <suchaprettyboy> Should I run 'sudo empathy' to be able to use my IRC account?
[18:11] <ZykoticK9> philyaw, typically i would use something like "ps -aux | grep WHATI'MLOOKINGFOR"
[18:12] <rob_p> jMyles: What address to you have assigned to your "internal" interface?  Can you manually configure another host on the network with an address in the same network and ping the server's internal IP?
[18:12] <philyaw> why -aux?
[18:12] <ssix> philyaw: Options -a -u and -x
[18:12] <philyaw> ohh
[18:12] <ZykoticK9> philyaw, habit mainly - but it shows more info (who owns process etc)
[18:13] <grawity> 'ps aux' (NOT 'ps -aux') means 'display all processes, including user information, and including processes without ttys"
[18:13] <grawity> (The dash before 'aux' is incorrect. I see that way too often...)
[18:13] <rob_p> jMyles: It's assumed that you have statically assigned an address within your, "private" local network, to the server's internal interface.
[18:13] <philyaw> zykotick9, does the | tell it i'm doing another command right after ps -aux?
[18:13] <ssix> grawity: ps aux == ps -aux
[18:13] <ssix> !?
[18:13] <grawity> ssix: Not exactly
[18:13] <ZykoticK9> philyaw, yes that's a pipe
[18:14] <grawity> ssix: 'ps -aux' displays this: "Warning: bad ps syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'? See http://procps.sf.net/faq.html"
[18:14] <rob_p> jMyles: Your network settings will reside in /etc/network/interfaces
[18:14] <crashove1ride> PS
[18:14] <ssix> grawity: My gnome-terminal displays the same thing as ps aux
[18:14]  * grawity facepalms.
[18:14] <philyaw> mine too
[18:14] <philyaw> I'm using kDE though
[18:14] <rob_p> jMyles: Make sure you've statically assigned an address to the internal interface.
[18:14] <grawity> And neither of you thought to scroll up a little?
[18:14] <philyaw> How can I start a KATE document from the terminal?
[18:14] <grawity> philyaw: kate foo.txt &
[18:15] <ssix> grawity: did that just now ^^ that's for having the scrollbar disabled xD
[18:15] <aafuentes2> when i execute some mysql estatment the output is very ugly. Does anybody knows what is this happening? --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/355114/
[18:15] <McL0VIN> question: i have a "DD-WRT" compatible router, and i have DynDNS account that resolve my ip to a domain e.g [hostname.com] . so on my router i have redirect <IP_ADDRESS>(GW address)  to port 80 to be able to access router GUI. Now if i installed Apache2 on ubuntu box with ip <IP_ADDRESS> how can i redirect it!? do i have to change the port that apache listen to?!
[18:16] <grawity> ssix: basically, there are two different option sets for ps... if you use the  dash, 'ps' thinks you are giving it UNIX-style options. If there's no dash, it's BSD-style.
[18:16] <grawity> ssix: And '-aux' doesn't make much sense then. Actually, this is the very first thing in ps' manpage.
[18:16] <drizzt___> had somewhat experienced with samba here? I'm trying to connect to WinXP share, but getting invalid password error
[18:17] <acicula> aafuentes2: try #mysql?
[18:17] <rob_p> McL0VIN: you should probably be accessing your router remotely *only* over HTTPS, which DD-WRT supports.  That frees up port 80.
[18:17] <shane2peru> !flashplugin
[18:17] <aafuentes2> thanks acicula ^^
[18:17] <McL0VIN> rob_p: how ? it is using port 80
[18:17] <ssix> grawity: never really did read the ps manpage, I'm always ps -e | grepping =/
[18:17] <Ratizar> i cant use external audio devices, headphones and things like that but an any body help me my sound work c
[18:18] <suchaprettyboy> Why Empathy do not let me choose between IRC channels.
[18:18] <grawity> ssix: ps -e, on the other hand, _is_ correct. (But -ef is more informative.)
[18:18] <shane2peru> !flash64
[18:18] <suchaprettyboy> Empathy can not use Internet access
[18:18] <philyaw> !grep
[18:18] <ssix> grawity: smarty pants! =P
[18:18] <rob_p> McL0VIN: You need to login to it and configure it to listen on port 443 via the HTTPS service.
[18:18] <Ratizar> i cant use external audio devices, headphones and things like that but my sound works can anybody help me
[18:18] <acicula> rob_p: disable any http access to the router on the external interface(you almost never want this on anyway) and set up forwarding rules to forward to your ip?
[18:18] <wrapster> i have 6G of mem .. but free -m only shows about 4.18G
[18:18] <grawity> ssix: That's what happens when I join #ubuntu while in bad mood
[18:18] <McL0VIN> rob_p:  let me check that out
[18:18] <wrapster> Mem + swap = ~4.18G
[18:18] <suchaprettyboy> 'sudo pon provider1' And empathy doesn't understand there's an internet access
[18:18] <wrapster> hows it possible?
[18:19] <grawity> wrapster: 32-bit or 64-bit Linux?
[18:19] <philyaw> whats the program called that consolidates your tray icons?
[18:19] <wrapster> 32
[18:19] <wrapster> is that the reason?
[18:19] <jMyles> rob_p: Sorry man, more customers.  Yes the internal address is static, but it's in the 192.168.x.x range
[18:19] <rob_p> acicula: Ideally, yes.  I certainely wouldn't have my router's config accessible to the world via standard HTTP.
[18:19] <grawity> wrapster: 32-bit systems cannot address more than 4 GB of RAM by default -- either you get 64-bit, or you somehow enable a thing called PAE.
[18:19] <rob_p> jMyles: That's your problem!
[18:19] <wrapster> grawity: 32. is that the reason
[18:19] <grawity> Hmm
[18:19] <grawity> !pae
[18:19] <acicula> rob_p: https doesnt make it any safer
[18:20] <ssix> grawity: no info on PAE, huh!?
[18:20] <grawity> acicula: It is, when your neighbour discovers tcpdump
[18:20] <DasEi> wrapster: you can install server-kernel on 32 bit, coming with pae support by default
[18:20] <grawity> !howinthehelldoienablepae
[18:20] <rob_p> jMyles: You need to change it to somethign in the <IP_ADDRESS>/24 network (if you subnetted with <IP_ADDRESS>).
[18:20] <suchaprettyboy> grawity Help me with empathy which can not use internet started with 'sudo pon provider1'
[18:20] <rob_p> acicula: Yes, it does.
[18:20] <wrapster> DasEi: which pkg does it belong to?
[18:20] <drizzt___> I'm trying to connect to WinXP share, but getting invalid password error in the loop!!
[18:21] <grawity> suchaprettyboy: I don't use Empathy, I don't use pppconfig, I don't know what is "provider1", and I have no idea why are you asking me about it.
[18:21] <suchaprettyboy> the name of a provider is not default and i'm not in a 'dip' group and have to run pppd as superuser
[18:21] <DasEi> wrapster: pae = physical address extension, it's the server-kernel
[18:21] <DasEi> wrapster: synaptic or apt-cache search
[18:21] <rob_p> acicula: But I agree that it's not too smart to be configuring your home router over the 'Net unless you have reason to.  In that case, I use VPN.
[18:21] <jMyles> rob_p: and then the netmask for the internal iface will stay <IP_ADDRESS> right?  and what of the network and broadcast?
[18:21] <rob_p> jMyles: yes
[18:22] <trism> !info linux-image-generic-pae
[18:22] <drizzt___> àîå
[18:22] <acicula> rob_p: it just encrypts your connection, unfortunatly you are more likely to get owned because of poorly implemented software on the router then your neighbour sniffing your password because it was unencrypted(provided thats even possible)
[18:23] <acicula> rob_p: yeah forcing authentication via vpn is much safer in that respect
[18:23] <Norse_Nemo>
[18:23] <rob_p> jMyles: The convention (if there is one) would be to put your gateway box at say, <IP_ADDRESS> with a netmask of <IP_ADDRESS> and make sure your dhcp server hand out IPs starting somewhere above there (like <IP_ADDRESS> - <IP_ADDRESS>).
[18:23] <DasEi> wrapster:saw trism ? else :
[18:23] <DasEi> !info linux-image-server
[18:24] <wrapster> DasEi: yeah
[18:24] <wrapster> got the link.. a few pkgs need to be installed...
[18:24] <jMyles> rob_p: Is it OK if the gateway is at <IP_ADDRESS>?  We are naming the gateway after a professor who recently passed away - she was born in 46.
[18:24] <wrapster> DasEi: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-linux-4gb-ram-limitation-solution/
[18:24] <rob_p> acicula: DD-WRT is probably a fairly robust implimentation of the HTTPS protocol though.  If I had to rely on it for a short time, I wouldn't have too much heartburn.
[18:24] <acicula> rob_p: its not SSL thats the problem
[18:25] <zig_> What would happen if you ran mdadm --remove /dev/md0 /dev/sda1    then resized the logical volumes @ sda1, then added it to md0 again?
[18:25] <jMyles> rob_p: The client now gets an IP, but still cannot see the outside world.
[18:25] <viliny> Hey
[18:25] <acicula> rob_p: its the webservers serving crappy secured pages to everyone who will connect, http or https ;)
[18:25] <zig_> Would it break?
[18:25] <rob_p> jMyles: Yes.  Just make sure it's out of the range of addresses that get handed out by the server.
[18:25] <DasEi> wrapster: by using one of the mentioned kernels apt wil solve everything needed and aslo update grub
[18:25] <wrapster> i would have so gone with the 64bit ubuntu to eliminate all these hassles.. but quite a few pkgs dont seem to work well
[18:25] <jMyles> rob_p: Yeah, I figured it needed to be below that range.
[18:25] <viliny> im trying to configure my dhcp server on ubuntu but it keeps failing... how can i find out which dhcp.conf file the bloody program is actually using when trying to start?
[18:25] <wrapster> DasEi: ok.. thanks
[18:25] <rob_p> acicula: I've never had that problem with DD-WRT.
[18:26] <acicula> rob_p: well as far as the software stack on router go i suppose DD-WRT probably isnt too bad no
[18:26] <DasEi> wrapster: last time I hassled with 64 bit more than 32 was hardy, since then, no probs
[18:26] <jMyles> rob_p: Interestingly, I can now ping the gateway from its outside IP address - perhaps there is a dns issue that is preventing the clients from resolving domain names?
[18:26] <Aled> How can I get a volume slider icon next to my time on Xubuntu?
[18:26] <philyaw> How can I open downloaded packages using KPackage Kit
[18:26] <rob_p> acicula: The "stack" is the Linux kernel's networking stack so I hope so!
[18:27] <philyaw> From the web, it keeps wanting to use GPackage something
[18:27] <enduser000> Aled: right click on the panel and hit "Add to Panel..."
[18:27] <DasEi> Aled: right click bar, add to panel
[18:27] <jMyles> rob_p: On the other hand, I can't seem to ping other outside ip addresses
[18:27] <rob_p> jMyles: So did you successfully get a DHCP lease on a client, from the server?
[18:28] <wrapster> DasEi: but for some reason .. skype wont work.. I could see the quite a few pkg crashed... so had to switch back to 32
[18:28] <wrapster> anyway later I'll give it a try i guess...
[18:28] <jMyles> rob_p: Yep! :-)  Just need to get to the outside world now.
[18:28] <wrapster> with the new ubuntu realease some time
[18:28] <rob_p> jMyles: Ok, you're 90% there now!
[18:28] <theadmin> What is a command to see system info, if there is any?
[18:28] <rob_p> jMyles: You need to configure forwarding in the kernel.
[18:29] <DasEi> wrapster: idk, just for fun I set up sype a month ago on a 64 bit vm, no problems at all ( but I followed a guide)
[18:29] <jMyles> rob_p: with sysctrl?
[18:30] <drizzt___> I'm trying to connect to WinXP share, but getting invalid password error in the loop...
[18:30] <rob_p> jMyles: You can configure it in  the sysctl config (for persistancy) but this will immediately allow forwarding:
[18:30] <rob_p> echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
[18:30] <rob_p> jMyles: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
[18:30] <wrapster> DasEi: could you please give me that guid?
[18:30] <jMyles> rob_p: permission denied, even with sud
[18:30] <jMyles> *sudo
[18:30] <wrapster> DasEi: if you have?
[18:30] <Aled> DasEi, there are none like what I want
[18:30] <jMyles> rob_p: however, cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward returns 1
[18:31] <MenZa> theadmin: There are several; what sort of info are you looking for?
[18:31] <navin> Hey Hi
[18:31] <Aled> the default one in Ubuntu is the one I want, the one in there you have to click on in which is brings up a new window to change the volume
[18:31] <enduser000> hello, I have a friend with ubuntu 9.10 on his gateway p-6831-fx and his sound isn't working.  has anyone ran into this problem before? we had the same trouble in 9.04 and his audio controller IS listed in lshw
[18:31] <Lungan> Anyone has an idea why the internal mic on my laptop doesn't work on ubuntu?
[18:31] <navin> I have a question.
[18:31] <jMyles> rob_p: Do I need to allow this conduct with iptables?
[18:31] <McL0VIN> rob_p: pm
[18:31] <theadmin> MenZa: Well, say, CPU speed and, uh, I guess power? and amount of RAM.
[18:31] <acicula> !sound | enduser000 , have a look here for a checklist/troubleshoot guide
[18:31] <Lartza_> !help
[18:31] <enduser000> acicula: thank you
[18:32] <MenZa> theadmin: 'sudo lshw' will give you a lot of info, presumably most of the stuff you want
[18:32] <Lartza_> Is ubottu case sensitive?
[18:32] <MenZa> Lartza_: No.
[18:32] <rob_p> jMyles: You will need to configure a few forwarding rules, yes.
[18:32] <theadmin> MenZa: Uh... why do I need to be root to do that?
[18:32] <rob_p> jMyles: But you need to set the forwarding flag in the kernel before it will allow any forwarding.
