[05:27] <Jordan_U> JSong: Yes, that would work. The './' is redundant, but doesn't hurt anything.
[05:28] <elijah733> no that doesn't work, can someone help me find and install a ralink 5390 driver
[05:28] <JSong> jordan_u: well the folder is under var/www/test
[05:28] <JSong> jordan_u: and i am in the /var/www already
[05:28] <Ketreva> I need help with rhythmbox. My google-fu is aparently weak.
[05:29] <Bendyr> Hey so I got ubuntu installed on my netbook using the minimal installer provided- but now I want to know how to install the ubuntu netbook remix ui, and get it to boot into that
[05:29] <joeoshawa> i have an sblive sound card i inherited it has two different outs labled 1 and 2 along with the headphone out and the mic in plus a digital out i was wondering if i could play sound from say urban terror out of the first one and a movie out the other
[05:29] <elijah733> how do i install a driver from a zip file?
[05:29] <Jordan_U> JSong: With rm, (and most other commands) the filename is assumed to be relative to the current directory unless you use an absolute path.
[05:30] <YankDownUnder> elijah733, What are you trying to do, mate?
[05:30] <JSong> jordan_u: thank you.  I just want to be 100% safe.
[05:30] <Ketreva> I'm trying to add a podcast, it says I need the URL of the podcast feed, but I'm not sure how to find that.
[05:30] <Jordan_U> JSong: You're welcome.
[05:30] <JSong> jordan_u: so is it even safer to maybe type   rm -r ./var/www/test   ?
[05:31] <elijah733> YankDownUnder, i am trying to get my wireless adapter working...aparently i need to install a driver for it. i have the driver i just dont know how to begin to install something like that
[05:31] <nameless`> Jordan_U: you sure ? i thought HAL was like the motherboard driver for the kernel or something
[05:31] <Jordan_U> nameless`: Yes I am sure.
[05:31] <YankDownUnder> elijah733, Being that I just came in from work, and I'm not sure if someone asked you already, but have you tried the "Hardware Drivers" utility yet?
[05:32] <JSong> If I upgrade from Ubuntu 8.x to 10.4LTS for my dedicated hosting server, will this mess anything up?  And is it apt-get install ubuntu 10.4?
[05:32] <elijah733> no
[05:32] <Chikokishi> Can someone explain the ubuntu partitioner to me?  I want to reduce my 306gb win7 partition into a 230gb + 75gb for ubuntu.
[05:32] <elijah733> yankdownunder, no
[05:32] <YankDownUnder> elijah733, What version of Ubuntu are ya runnin mate?
[05:32] <rww> !upgrade | JSong
[05:32] <Jordan_U> JSong: No, that would attempt to delete $CURRENT_DIRECTORY/var/www/test
[05:32] <elijah733> kubuntu 10.10
[05:33] <Jordan_U> JSong: If you want to specify a non-relative path you need it to start with '/'.
[05:33] <elijah733> yankdownunder, kubuntu 10.10
[05:33] <rww> JSong: on second thought... is it 8.04 or 8.10?
[05:33] <JSong> jordan_u: oh goodness!  so only do    rm -r ./test    while I am inside the /var/www/
[05:33] <JSong> rww: 8.10 i think
[05:33] <YankDownUnder> elijah733, Coolbeans - ok, firstly, what you should do is go to "Administration" (wherever that is in KDE), and find the "Hardware Drivers" utility - see if the drivers are actually in the "channels" as it were...if NOT, then I have something else for ya to try, eh?
[05:33] <LinuxNoob> whas up guys
[05:34] <rww> JSong: 8.10 is EOL, so that'd be more complicated.
[05:34] <rww> !eol
[05:34] <josefig> Hello, I've just installed a ubuntu 10.10 64 version to my Dell 15R,  when It runs I cannot see the menu, I just see a gray bar with no buttons, why ? what can I do ?
[05:34] <Jordan_U> JSong: You could also do "rm -r /var/www/test" if you wanted to use an absolute path.
[05:34] <JSong> jordan_u: you mean with quotations?
[05:34] <LinuxNoob> lol
[05:34] <Jordan_U> JSong: No, without the quotation marks.
[05:35] <JSong> jordan_u: but that will not remove my var and www folder right?
[05:35] <Jordan_U> JSong: Correct.
[05:35] <elijah733> can i send you a screen shot, yankdownunder...i see something peculiar...what did you have?
[05:35] <excelsio1> Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I have the Xine plugin in Firefox, and it doesn't have any controls. I just autoplays whatever .wmv file, no pause, rewind, or anything. Any thoughts?
[05:36] <YankDownUnder> elijah733, I've found: ftp://file7.mydrivers.com/wireless/Ralink_RT3090_Linux_drv<IP_ADDRESS>.zip
[05:36] <JSong> wow man my hosting guys responded 2 days  later to do a reboot on my server
[05:37] <JSong> I think that is pretty bad
[05:37] <JSong> and it was a urgent ticket too
[05:37] <Chikokishi> Can someone explain the ubuntu partitioner to me?  I want to reduce my 306gb win7 partition into a 230gb + 75gb for ubuntu.
[05:38] <elijah733> that link isnt working particularly well , yankdownunder
[05:38] <Starminn> Chikokishi: Is Ubuntu already installed?
[05:39] <YankDownUnder> elijah733, You have to register at : MyDrivers.Com in order to download it.
[05:39] <YankDownUnder> elijah733, Did you find the "Hardware Drivers" utility?
[05:39] <morgan__> hey guys, just wondering if anyone knows how I adjust the sensitivity for resizing windows.. i get about a pixel of play before it ignores my feeble attempts
[05:40] <elijah733> no, i cant find that utility
[05:40] <YankDownUnder> elijah733, Hang on....let me find it (I hate KDE, ergo, I don't know where the utility is)
[05:41] <elijah733> yankdownunder, i think i hate it too...gnome is better
[05:41] <bastidrazor> morgan__: you can use alt and middle click to resize windows
[05:42] <YankDownUnder> elijah733, I could have told ya that eight years ago :)
[05:42] <elijah733> actually i think i will intall regular ubunut
[05:42] <elijah733> ubuntu
[05:43] <pmp6nl> what si the point of the domainname?
[05:43] <morgan__> thanks bastidrazor - definately useful and I didn't know of it, usually dont plug mouse into my lappy though n no middle button :(
[05:44] <Starminn> morgan__: Button1+Button2 == Button3?
[05:45] <JSong> if i back up my entire server with Ubuntu 10.4 and I untar it within Ubuntu 8.x will it essentially reinstall my old server and override the odl OS?
[05:45] <pmp6nl> what is the point of the domainname on ubuntu server? Thanks
[05:47] <YankDownUnder> elijah733, Try typing (in a run box) jockey-kde
[05:50] <JSong> how much faster is it if I replce my hosting server with 256Gig Solid Satte HD ?
[05:51] <JSong> is it worth the money?
[05:51] <foxnet> depends on the memory and activity of the server
[05:52] <foxnet> I doubt it would be any faster per say, most apps are in memory
[05:52] <JSong> well it is running 4gig ram with ubuntu
[05:52] <foxnet> unles your running a database
[05:52] <foxnet> and then raid is plenty fast
[05:52] <JSong> yes a very large DB
[05:52] <foxnet> how many raid ide drives do you have for your db?
[05:52] <JSong> none
[05:53] <foxnet> ifyour using sata, it's slow
[05:53] <JSong> just a dedicated server from a hosting company
[05:53] <foxnet> I would do raid, it's cheaper
[05:53] <handonam> hey, can someone help me figure out if i am doing my ldconfigs correctly?  i can't seem to make python import something
[05:53] <JSong> but they will upgarde my HD to solid state for a fee
[05:53] <Starminn> JSong: (Got this from here http://www.technize.com/ssd-vs-hdd-comparison/) The typical access time for a Flash based SSD is about 35 – 100 micro-secondsWhereas  that of a rotating disk is around 5,000 – 10,000 micro-seconds. That  makes a Flash-based SSD approximately 100 times faster than a rotating  disk.HDD data transfer rate at the rate of 80 megabytes per second typically.SSD data transfer rate at the rate of 170 megabytes pe
[05:53] <foxnet> dedicated servers often have raid
[05:53] <JSong> not mine.. I think they gave me a single 300 gig hd
[05:54] <foxnet> jsong they say it 's solid state, but is it really?
[05:54] <JSong> hmm actually they gave me 2 x 300gig so maybe rid 0
[05:54] <foxnet> they could just put it on a really good raid controller
[05:54] <JSong> Well they say it will be SS.. and All I have to do is VNC in and look at it with disk manager from Ubuntu gui based to know 100%
[05:55] <JSong> I am running SSLVNC
[05:55] <foxnet> eh, go with sql server, it's faster than anything out there
[05:55] <JSong> a seperate sql server?
[05:56] <foxnet> yea, a real database
[05:56] <JSong> right now all my servers are running in one box. dns, email, web, LAMP
[05:56] <cfedde> sql server? you mean microsoft sqlserver?
[05:56] <foxnet> hell yea, ms sql server
[05:56] <tripelb> I need help re NNTP: I have not used that since chi.general and chi.eats and rumour.politics and comp.os.apple.whatever .... I'm looking for the Daily Show. How do I find this given THIS following info:  It's available on the NNTP network still. Leechr and hellanzb are your friends. No need to 'bother' with torrents. It just shows up in your output directory.
[05:56] <JSong> well ms sql server is too expensive and not free
[05:57] <JSong> mysql is free
[05:57] <cfedde> might as well just go oracle at that point.
[05:57] <foxnet> no, it's not free
[05:57] <foxnet> that's why companies like amazon use them, they are fast
[05:57] <JSong> i am on a budget
[05:57] <JSong> can't afford that
[05:57]  * tripelb wants to learn opensource database stuff
[05:57] <pmp6nl> I am trying to mount a samba share, do I need to be in the same domaingroup?
[05:57] <JSong> I want to maximize on using 1 dedicated server
[05:57] <cfedde> tripelb: sqlite is a great way to start.  postgresql after that.
[05:58] <foxnet> as I said, don't do solid state, if your spending mone y on solid state, you may as well go sql, even a shared sql is less expensive
[05:58] <fread2281> You could get it illegally( cracked )
[05:58] <foxnet> shared sql server is actually very cheap
[05:58] <JSong> does it mess with my db structure if I move to ms sql from mysql?
[05:59] <alin`> buna dimineata
[05:59] <foxnet> http://www.sqlservermart.com/Shared.aspx
[05:59] <foxnet> or use azure
[05:59] <YankDownUnder> Paying for a product that is not complete, nor warranted to work, is a bad thing.
[05:59] <tripelb> cfedde, can we talk about it. I have some past experience. What: I did some rbase programming in the wayback. took a (not good) dreamweaver class. student taught datastructures in not-that-far wayback to ICS majors.
[06:00] <fread2281> I hate Linux cuz its less using the real db than osx and more like windows
[06:00] <foxnet> azure is very competatively priced
[06:00] <cfedde> tripelb: pick up a reasonable sql book. I like _SQL for Smarties_
[06:00] <foxnet> jsong you can use integration services to move your data from mysql
[06:00] <foxnet> it's really easy
[06:00] <tripelb> cfedde, I'd like some more generalized background about datastructures and the way that they are handled, some problems to help me think it through or something to program. (I'm in a Ub10.04 environment
[06:01] <tripelb> would that book work then?
[06:01] <JSong> is anyone else have experience running SSLVNC on their Ubuntu server for reote management?
[06:01] <fread2281> Nvm
[06:01] <fread2281> I frogot bout hidden folders
[06:01] <cfedde> tripelb: relational database work is a bit of a differet way to think than say a CS 202 class on datastructures.
[06:02] <JSong> foxnet: who are some integration services? Does it require me to recode or cahneg my php files and querys?
[06:02] <cfedde> JSong: mibration from mysql to sql server is going to require some changes.  Yes.
[06:02] <amn3z1a> can anyone help me get an internet connection to work on a new ubuntu install?
[06:02] <JSong> that is going ot be a project then.. right now i have a dev environment running Xampp
[06:03] <JSong> if i run ms sql.. then I may have to recode my querys and such and i have 100's of php files
[06:03] <twitch> illegal | fread2281
[06:03] <twitch> D!illegal | fread2281
[06:03] <joeoshawa> i have a monitor thats 1680x1050 and a tv thats 43 inch i want to be able to run at 1080p off the computer with 120hz refresh and i want to be able to run hd movies on the tv and play the new urban terror  at the same time what would be a good card that will work with ubuntu (thinking nvidia)
[06:03] <twitch> meh
[06:03] <cfedde> JSong: I'd recomend measuring performance in some objective way before and after each change.
[06:04] <philip__> What's the command to find out my Audio device/driver info in Terminal?
[06:04] <tripelb> cfedde, sorry if I'm slow but I'm copying your responses. Tell me what you mean (and it was a class like 103 (first year of ICS 3rd quarter) not an upperdivision class.)
[06:04] <JSong> cfedde: I just want to make it more snappy... and I was thinking SS hard drive will do the trick
[06:04] <cfedde> I think you'll find that a migration from spinning media to ssd will far outstrip changing from mysql to sql server.
[06:04] <amn3z1a> i just orderes a SSD
[06:04] <JSong> plus I am not sure what the limitation of mysql db is as it keeps growing
[06:05] <cfedde> JSong: mysql hosts some of the largest databases on the planet
[06:05] <JSong> cfedde: nice.. so no worrys about that.. but then will going soild state be a simpler move for me?
[06:05] <cfedde> tripelb: you understand datastructures like linked lists and binary trees and such?
[06:06] <amn3z1a> anyone available to help with a lack of internet connection issue?
[06:06] <cfedde> JSong: going from host to host is more an issue for the providor than for you.
[06:06] <tripelb> cfedde yes
[06:06] <cfedde> JSong: changing code is pretty much up to you.
[06:07] <cfedde> tripelb: a relational database like sqlite, mysql, postgres and the rest make use of low level datastructures to represent a collection of tables of data.
[06:07] <sunit> I am using ubuntu 10.04 LTS now and installed java-6 and tomcat 6. In /etc/defaults/tomcat6 file there is place to set JAVA_OPTS
[06:07] <JSong> cfedde: thanks. I am thinking which is best as my site grows.. go dedicated with a monthly fees.. or just build my own computer and put some serious horse power on it.. and get a rack space for colo.. and just pay for the monthly fees for a pipe and facilities
[06:07] <cfedde> tripelb: datastructures and filestructures both.
[06:07] <tripelb> cfedde well yes
[06:07] <foxnet> you could always use sqlexpress, it's free and still faster than mysql jsong
[06:07] <amn3z1a> cfedde, same thing ms does, directs to a database thru code
[06:08] <cfedde> amn3z1a: exactly
[06:08] <amn3z1a> im learning sql and silverlight and the rest
[06:08] <foxnet> amn3z1a, thats' fun
[06:08] <cfedde> amn3z1a: my position on performance issue is that switching to ssd will give you more performance than switcing to sql server.
[06:08] <amn3z1a> not really, but it'll pay off
[06:08] <tripelb> cfedde yes "relational" rather than flat would have a structure of referring to specific files (trying to avoid the words linking and related)
[06:08] <JSong> foxnet: thanks.  I am just very nervous about the redoing of my code... it would be horrendous
[06:08] <foxnet> amn3z1a, it's kinda stupid when I did it a couple years ago, hope it changed.
[06:09] <foxnet> JSong, should just be a connection string change
[06:09] <amn3z1a> just more complications now, foxnet
[06:09] <cfedde> tripelb: this is not realy the format for it but I can point you to a couple reasonable online tutorials on relational databases
[06:09] <JSong> foxnet: thanks.  i will look into sqlexpress  is that a MS product?
[06:09] <cfedde> s/format/forum/
[06:10] <foxnet> JSong, yea ms sql sexpress
[06:10] <foxnet> express*
[06:10] <JSong> I also heard of a new DB out called 'Maria' since Oracle bought out mysql
[06:10] <amn3z1a> foxnet, they say they've made 'improvements' ... isnt that what ms said when they released Windows... every time?
[06:10] <ruby_on_tails> hello
[06:10] <foxnet> well there is sqllite
[06:10] <JSong> with Orace nothing stays free too long
[06:10] <ruby_on_tails> i saw a guy typing something in the CLI to perform a regex based search on a set of files in a folder, how can i do that ?
[06:10] <sunit> we have to set JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -Xms384M -Xmx512M -XX:MaxPermSize=256M
[06:10] <cfedde> sqlite is a bit too limited for major website use.
[06:11] <foxnet> JSong, yea, mysql open source will probably have to part and call it open-sql
[06:11] <tripelb> cfedde records, lists of records and related files.  --- Sure. re the pointer from you to tutorials. thumbs up on that --- but what I was asking is to understand the distinction you were making between -relational database work- and -a cs class-.  Oh were you thinking that the db standard is set and normal db work is done within a standard file structure while the class is teaching you to think about a variety of file structures?
[06:12] <sunit> but in /etc/defaults/tomcat6 the JAVA_OPTS is set to JAVA_OPTS="${JAVA_OPTS} -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC" by defaults.
[06:12] <Loshki> ruby_on_tails: was it using 'find -regex' perhaps?
[06:12]  * dannyLopez se va
[06:12] <ruby_on_tails> Loshki: i have no idea, i am a newbie
[06:12] <ruby_on_tails> but i want to do that
[06:12] <cfedde> tripelb: It seems you understand what I'm saying.
[06:12] <sunit> shall we change JAVA_OPTS or keep it as defaults ?
[06:13] <JSong> I am not sure why the new dedicated hosting company only installs 8.x vs 10.4
[06:13] <Symmetria> *SIGH* I have a *MAJOR* problem with an ubuntu server where, after running for a while, apache dies, and refuses to restart, and when I attempt to restart it, it claims [Mon Feb 14 08:06:03 2011] [emerg] (28)No space left on device: Couldn't create accept lock (/var/lock/apache2/accept.lock.2687) (5)
[06:13] <Symmetria> does ANYONE have any idea how I fix that since I cannot reboot this machine at the moment
[06:13] <Symmetria> and I desperately need to get apache restarted
[06:13] <bullgard>  philip__ : '~$ lsmod | grep snd'
[06:13] <JSong> Anyone here have experience with the new 11.x coming out soon?
[06:13] <cfedde> tripelb: a Datastructures and file structures class is part of a CS degree and ends up more of a math class than a vocational class.
[06:13] <Loshki> ruby_on_tails: start by looking at the 'find' man page. Unfortunately, it's not the easiest of commands for a beginner...
[06:13] <twitch> Symmetria: your hard drive or that partation is full
[06:13] <ruby_on_tails> Loshki: ok, thanks
[06:13] <cfedde> While there is plenty of sound math behind the relational database model most people don't expect to have to know it.
[06:14] <twitch> Symmetria: in cli type "df -h"
[06:14] <Symmetria> twitch, no, its not, thats a tmpfs mount in memory, and there is 12G available
[06:14] <cfedde> tripelb: http://www.w3schools.com/sql/default.asp http://www.sqlite.org/
[06:14] <Symmetria> none                   12G     0   12G   0% /var/lock
[06:15] <Symmetria> and the really wierd thing, is when I unmount /var/lock so it is actually trying to lock to disk, it STILL claims that
[06:16] <sunit> you can see the tomcat file in url http://dpaste.de/0QxK/. please help me
[06:16] <twitch> Symmetria: run in ram or on a partition?
[06:17] <Symmetria> twitch no matter where it attempts to write that lock file to I'm getting the same issue
[06:17] <philip__> Does anybody have trouble with graphics driver 173 nvidia geforce FX 5200 AGP8x 256MB sparkle? I have to use 96 drivers for it to not crash (As bad)
[06:18] <amn3z1a> its a sparkle
[06:18] <twitch> Symmetria: just a though but does the "user" of the service have write access?
[06:18] <Symmetria> *HRM* ok, that error message definately isn't about the lock file, because yes, it definately has write access to everywhere I try, but even if I try stick that lock file in the apache log directory same message, and there are hundreds of gigs available in there, I think its a ram issue
[06:19] <philip__> Sparkle is the brand  amn3z1a
[06:19] <amn3z1a> i know, and i am truly sorry =/
[06:20] <Ubuntu_JS> hi
[06:20] <philip__> Why Sparkle makes great hardware.
[06:20] <amn3z1a> wb Jsong
[06:20] <Ubuntu_JS> what is the command to restart apache?
[06:20] <Ubuntu_JS> all is running but my web site is cnto working
[06:20] <lolcat> Ubuntu_JS: /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[06:20] <Gnea> Ubuntu_JS: service apache2 restart
[06:21] <amn3z1a> philip__, i guess I've been spoiled then
[06:21] <twitch> Symmetria: don't think it would be a ram problem if the locak file cannot be accessed from any location you set it .. hurm
[06:22] <twitch> lock*
[06:22] <Ubuntu_JS> hmm looking at my pstree and what is apache process called?
[06:22] <tripelb> cfedde, yes I see that. I only wanted you to know my level so, like we have, we could talk 'efficiently'. -- Thanks for the links. -- it's that and scripts I have in front of me to learn now.
[06:23] <enav> hello im having problems to configure my 3 monitor  using xinerama and activating compiz... help?
[06:23] <philip__> Posted a link to my card amn3z1
[06:24] <nowarninglabel> I'm trying to load an encrypted home directory, I've successfully mounted the files, but all i get are the file names, trying to load one or cp one says the file does not exist. datestamps/owners are all ? marks
[06:25] <nowarninglabel> any ideas on further steps? perhaps I somehow managed to decrypt the file names but not the data?
[06:25] <Vanuatoo> Does ubuntu 10.10 ship with outdated certificates?
[06:25] <enav> hello im having problems to configure my 3 monitor  using xinerama and activating compiz... help?
[06:26] <Vanuatoo> It can't recognize VeriSign Class 3 Extended Validation SSL SGC CA
[06:26] <nowarninglabel> Vanuatoo: do you experience the same issue on 9.04?
[06:27] <Vanuatoo> This is my first ubuntu
[06:27] <Taffy> i have a question i want to upgrade the ram to 1 or more gigs of DIMM for this laptop, will ubuntu recognize it once i do i'm thinking it should but not really sure?
[06:28] <nowarninglabel> Taffy: my install runs on 2GB RAM without issue, shouldn't be a problem, but you can always just remove the RAM if it doesn't recognize it
[06:28] <Taffy> k thx
[06:28] <i_is_broke> shouldnt have to remove it unless the laptop doesnt see the ram
[06:29] <i_is_broke> Taffy, it just wont adjust the swap space.
[06:29] <i_is_broke> but if you put it to sleep you wont want to adjust it anyways.
[06:29] <Taffy> k ty i_is_broke
[06:30] <i_is_broke> Taffy, your quite welcome
[06:31] <trollboy> does xubuntu have all the driver support of ubuntu?
[06:31] <trollboy> just with the different window manager?
[06:31] <i_is_broke> yes

[06:39] <Stryker> twitch,  i mean along the lines of do i put .jpg or not sort of thing
[06:39] <twitch> Stryker: if u dont "cat ~/.bash_history"
[06:40] <twitch> Stryker: yes u can put any filename from an exec to a xxx.jpg

[06:41] <Stryker> twitch,  is there any way to track what i have done recently?
[06:41] <amn3z1a> ur OS might act funny
[06:41] <twitch> Stryker: yes .bash_history (i think it only updates when you log out)
[06:42] <Stryker> twitch, that only shows me my past command line commands
[06:42] <twitch> Stryker: oh you did it through nautilus?

[06:48] <twitch> Stryker: might not be, but u recently copied/renamed files and you cant remember :P .......

[06:55] <Madpilot> Stryker, in terminal or gui?
[06:56] <Madpilot> Stryker, did you move the files in terminal or in the desktop, I mean?

[07:03] <Guest78687> haha ok sorry
[07:04] <KB1JWQ> Guest78687: Best to ask your question here.
[07:04] <Stryker> where is the history for nautilus
[07:04] <Guest78687> first time IRC user
[07:04] <KB1JWQ> That being said, panels tend to be crap for pre-established sites.
[07:04] <Guest78687> <<---
[07:05] <Stryker> i saw part of the histry in the dropdown menu, but where is the other 90% of what i have done
[07:05] <Guest78687> well its mostly used to administer teh server
[07:05] <Guest78687> and make it easier for a client
[07:05] <marverick> How do I change my name do not want this ?
[07:05] <hanasaki> what card works with linux and will take cable tv in at full hdtv 1080p and also work with pvr software? what is good pvr software?
[07:05] <marverick> plx?
[07:05] <KB1JWQ> Guest78687: Right, but it does some broken things as a direct result.
[07:05] <KB1JWQ> marverick: /nick I suspect.
[07:05] <hanasaki> what motherboard will take hdtv hdmi in A/V and record it?
[07:06] <pitlimit> i'm using ubuntu and am looking for the source code for the program ls
[07:06] <pitlimit> can anyone tell me where i might find the source code?
[07:07] <Stryker> found the files... apparently they were hidden!
[07:07] <ihack4fun> Sourceforge for source code
[07:07] <pitlimit> is that a website ihack
[07:07] <gazi0101> okay so then I should just stick with shell and teach the person commands instead of installing webmin?
[07:07] <ihack4fun> Yes
[07:07] <Stryker> i opened a new tab in nautilus, and opened a side pane, and selected history from the dropdown menu
[07:08] <pitlimit> ihack4fun... that returns a billion searches on that site
[07:08] <tleuser> F0.B.....1
[07:08] <pitlimit> any idea on how to make a more useful search of it?
[07:08] <tleuser> WOBMM.1
[07:09] <tleuser> 1120
[07:09] <onil> how to change an existing group to primary group

[07:13] <sara2010> HI
[07:13] <sara2010> any one there
[07:13] <root_> well,if thnis room is about hacking,then helkp me
[07:13] <sara2010> any one  help me
[07:13] <root_> what i need to know is this
[07:13] <vega-_> !ask | sara2010
[07:13] <Stryker> how do i make a folder, and files unhidden
[07:13] <root_> 'how do you sniff unsecured wireless infos'
[07:13] <root_> thanks
[07:14] <KB1JWQ> root_: That's unsupported here.  Not to mention legally questionable unless it's on your own network.
[07:14] <sara2010> i m using ubuntu 10.10 and i want install bearpaw Mustek 2400CU plus .
[07:14] <pksadiq> root_ : That is not hacking , but its cracking, not  here
[07:14] <root_> is it?oh,well
[07:14] <root_> thanks,though
[07:14] <Stryker> how do i make a folder, and files unhidden
[07:15] <root_> Alright,bye wveryone
[07:15] <root_> Did you know that I was from Nepal?
[07:15] <root_> Where are you from,actually?
[07:15] <vega-_> root_: this is not a "chitchat" channel, byebye
[07:15] <Guest19901> black hat hacking = cracking. What hat hacking is the good hackers. Grey hackers do both, but yes I would rather refer to them as crackers
[07:15] <root_> ok,but i am in grade 11
[07:15] <root_> reading
[07:16] <root_> alright,bye
[07:16] <vega-_> root_: very interesting, now go away
[07:16] <Madpilot> root_, if you just want to chat, please join #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:16] <Guest19901> OK
[07:16] <Guest19901> ha ha
[07:16] <Madpilot> vega-_, be polite.
[07:16] <root_> how do i close
[07:16] <root_> it's not closing
[07:16] <Stryker> that is funny
[07:17] <vega-_> Madpilot: didn't seem being polite would get rid of him flooding the channel..
[07:17] <Stryker> how do i make a folder with a "." not be hidden
[07:17] <ihack4fun> It is funny striker ahh to be a newb signed into root
[07:18] <Stryker> a nepalese 11th grader in root, ah, good times
[07:18] <Madpilot> vega-_, suggest #ubuntu-offtopic. Politely. Remind new users this is not a chat channel. Politely. Last resort, call for ops. Politely. Do you see a trend in my advice?
[07:18] <vega-_> + a few others it seems
[07:18] <Taffy> it is not true root unless the underscore is not there _
[07:18] <KB1JWQ> vega-_: It never hurts to be solicitous. :-)
[07:18] <KB1JWQ> Taffy: That's usually client-side, since I think root is logged in.
[07:19] <vega-_> ok got it :)
[07:19] <[thor]> Taffy: it is also not reliable to assume that reported username is valid
[07:19] <KB1JWQ> Yeah, the username "root" is reserved on this network for reasons that should be obvious.
[07:19] <Guest19901> It is not considered illegal if you crack your own router is it?
[07:19] <KB1JWQ> Guest19901: No, but there are better channels than this one for such discussions.
[07:20] <Guest19901> sorry
[07:20] <iiDesignsDSL> hey everyone
[07:20] <Stryker> Guest19901, as long as you own the router, it would be fine, even if it was illegal, it wouldn't hold up in court
[07:21] <rww> It's not illegal. At all.
[07:21] <Taffy> that's why im here to learn :)
[07:21] <iiDesignsDSL> sounds like my current issue
[07:21] <gazi0101> also add that as long as it doesn't increase your bandwith past what you have purchased from your isp
[07:21] <KB1JWQ> rww: Technically I believe it is in some jurisdictions.  Germany had a law on the books for a while that had issue with such things, for example.
[07:21] <gazi0101> not illegal
[07:21] <iiDesignsDSL> pureftpd-mysql keeps coming back
[07:21] <Guest19901> Cool.
[07:24] <Guest19901> OK, for the reason I am here. If other need help then I understand. I am trying to learn, so I figured why not try to install bsnes on Ubuntu Lucid Lynx?, but it didn't work for me. Yes I know of ZSNES and snes9x. I have ZSNES installed.
[07:24] <Guest19901> http://paste.ubuntu.com/566861/
[07:24] <Guest19901> http://byuu.org/bsnes/compilation-guide
[07:25] <Guest19901> I will try snes9x sometime soon
[07:25] <Guest19901> From Ubuntu Software Center that is
[07:27] <Guest19901> I am going to try installing the game Tong sometime soon
[07:28] <Guest19901> it's a mix of tetris and pong
[07:29] <Guest19901> I don't like the color scheme, but the idea is great:

[07:30] <ruby_on_tails> i have to login into an ftp account but i get an error saying: 550 SSL/TLS required on the control channel
[07:30] <ruby_on_tails> what should i do ?
[07:30] <rww> use FTPS instead of FTP
[07:31] <robot7p> hey people what is the best program to create data cds?
[07:32] <robot7p> I need create a cd to Ubuntu
[07:32] <ruby_on_tails> rww: still doesnt work
[07:33] <Starminn> I've always used Brasero (default) for data discs
[07:33] <robot7p> hm thanks
[07:33] <Starminn> robot7p: Yep. You'll find it in Applications->Sound & Video->Brasero Disc Burner
[07:33] <robot7p> ok
[07:34] <KREDO> hi all
[07:34] <sara2010> vega-_, where u gone
[07:34] <sara2010> i m waiting for your reply

[07:34] <vega-_> sara2010: ?
[07:34] <sara2010> i m using ubuntu 10.10 and i want install bearpaw Mustek 2400CU plus .
[07:35] <vega-_> why do you think i know the solution?
[07:35] <EvilPhoenix> !repeat | sara2010
[07:35] <EvilPhoenix> sara2010:  "if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you."  that's why you havent gotten a response
[07:35] <sara2010> i seee
[07:35] <EvilPhoenix> sara2010:  the dynamics of this channel are such that if nobody knows how to help you, they ignore the message and go to help someone else if they can
[07:36] <EvilPhoenix> sara2010:  and just because someone issues an ubottu message, it doesnt mean they know how to help you
[07:36] <sara2010> okay
[07:36] <sara2010> EvilPhoenix,
[07:36] <EvilPhoenix> sara2010:  for instance, I sent the ubottu !repeat info to you, but I have no clue how to help you with your issue, so I'm not answering your support question
[07:36] <EvilPhoenix> ;)
[07:37] <sara2010> okay

[07:56] <brandon420> does anyone know where the rtgui config is located at?
[07:58] <Starminn> Is there a way to return a number of files in shell?
[07:58] <Starminn> For instance, instead o listing all files in a directory, how about giving the number of files in a directory?
[07:58] <maco> Starminn: just files, or directories too?
[07:59] <Starminn> Files only. I'm recursively searching throughout a directory.
[07:59] <Starminn> Actually I'm grepp'ing and want the number of files containing the search string
[08:00] <dwarg> sagaci is it rly nessecary to install driver to all the compat thing?
[08:00] <dwarg> arent i suppused to specify which driver it should install ??

[08:01] <aroshlakshan> can somebody help, my sound is not working on ubuntu 10.10
[08:02] <maco> Starminn: ls -lF | grep -v "/" | wc -l        <-- thats number of normal files (not hidden) in a dir, but not recursive
[08:02] <dwarg> remove mute ;P
[08:02] <aroshlakshan> how
[08:02] <maco> Starminn: hmm grepping...in that case i would...
[08:02] <aroshlakshan> im a total newbie
[08:02] <dwarg> top right cornor ? :P
[08:03] <Starminn> maco: grep -c gives me the number of instances in a file, but not the number of files. :) Interesting predicament, eh?
[08:03] <aroshlakshan> i installed it before but today i reinstalled the OS. but when i reinstalled the sound is not working
[08:03] <sara2010>  i m getting error Faild to open device gt68xx:libusb:004:005 invalid argument
[08:03] <sara2010> i want to run baerpaw  mustek 2400CU  scanner

[08:03] <dwarg> try update it
[08:03] <moth_woman> aroshlakshan: type in alsamixer in the terminal use m to unmute master and pcm
[08:04] <maco> Starminn: grep -r "yourstring" * | awk -F: '{ print $1 }' | uniq
[08:05] <maco> Starminn: ah sorry
[08:05] <maco> Starminn: grep -r "yourstring" * | awk -F: '{ print $1 }' | uniq | wc -l
[08:05] <maco> Starminn: forgot to add the counting bit at the end, whoops
[08:05] <aroshlakshan> thanks moth_woman
[08:05] <aroshlakshan> it works
[08:05] <aroshlakshan> thank u so much
[08:06] <moth_woman> aroshlakshan: coolio glacious
[08:06] <Starminn> Hmm... I think it worked maco
[08:06] <aroshlakshan> dwarg! .!.
[08:06] <maco> Starminn: pipes are great!
[08:06] <Starminn> maco: Yeah, looked like it worked.
[08:06] <dwarg> ye? :P
[08:07] <Starminn> maco: Yeah, I have about two more pipes in addition to what you gave me, haha.
[08:08] <Starminn> maco: Worked like a charm though, thanks man! :)
[08:10] <iiDesignsDSL> anyone know what file i would edit to enable remote vnc
[08:18] <memoryleak> hi
[08:18] <Gnea> okay, so I installed ubuntu server on this system because I couldn't get ubuntu desktop to install properly. got most everything working, now I'm just trying to get X to work.  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg doesn't work (10.04) and when I start gdm it tells me to configure or get bent, but it won't let me configure it will only let me get bent. why is this and why can't I just configure X properly like the docs say how to do?
[08:20] <Lasivian> Anyone familiar with Google Sketchup? I'm looking for a linux program that's on par with it. Thanks :)
[08:22] <Neurocam> i wanna say blender
[08:23] <Neurocam> but you probably wont like the ui if you like sketchup
[08:23] <Lasivian> yeah, i'm looking for simpler cad
[08:24] <sacarlson> iiDesignsDSL: you mean from ssh?  you can enable from desktop from System>preference>remote desktop
[08:24] <iiDesignsDSL> yea
[08:24] <sacarlson> iiDesignsDSL: yea what?
[08:24] <iiDesignsDSL> from ssh
[08:25] <iiDesignsDSL> vs the gui since its remote and only ssh works for some reason
[08:26] <moth_woman> iiDesignsDSL: u should look into xnest it's really easy to use over ssh
[08:26] <sacarlson> iiDesignsDSL: yes there is a cli command to enable it I have to look it up
[08:28] <sacarlson> iiDesignsDSL: the command is gconftool-2 -s -t bool /desktop/gnome/remote_access/enabled true
[08:29] <iiDesignsDSL> k lets see
[08:29] <kcj> I installed LXDE via the lxde package. If I uninstall the lxde package it doesn't uninstall LXDE. How do I uninstall everything the lxde package points to?
[08:30] <moth_woman> apt-get --purge remove lxde
[08:30] <kcj> Oh thanks.
[08:32] <kcj> moth_woman: Um :The following packages will be REMOVED:  lxde* 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[08:33] <ale_> hi, I have a secondary disk in my PC, and it is not mounted. How can I figure out how to mount it?
[08:34] <moth_woman> ale_: how is it formated?
[08:34] <ale_> it's a linux drive, so it should be ext3 or ext4
[08:35] <soreau> ale_: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /mount/point/
[08:35] <soreau> ale_: change sdb1 to fit your device of course
[08:36] <moth_woman> ale_: use fdisk -l to find out the device name, then sudo mount /dev/sdx -t ext3 /mnt/sdx x being the drive info you got from fdisk -l
[08:36] <ale_> great, thanks!
[08:37] <barf_> How can I set up my own apt repo?
[08:37] <moth_woman> ale_: the directory /mnt/sdx must already exist for this to work.
[08:38] <barf_> What is apt? a structure in a folder on a webserver?
[08:38] <rumpe1> barf_, do you mean apt-proxy or a ppa?
[08:38] <taylanub> in the network manager, under ipv4 settings, i choose manual (instead of dhcp) and set up some things but the apply button remains grey >_<
[08:39] <barf_> I would like to put my own binaries on http and add that as a source in /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:39] <rumpe1> barf_, so why not use a ppa?
[08:39] <soreau> ! ppa | barf_
[08:39] <ale_> ale_: use fdisk -l to find out the device name, then sudo mount /dev/sdx -t ext3 /mnt/sdx x being the drive info you got from fdisk -l
[08:39] <ale_> ale_: use fdisk -l to find out the device name, then sudo mount /dev/sdx -t ext3 /mnt/sdx x being the drive info you got from fdisk -l
[08:39] <ale_> ale_: use fdisk -l to find out the device name, then sudo mount /dev/sdx -t ext3 /mnt/sdx x being the drive info you got from fdisk -l
[08:39] <FloodBot3> ale_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:39] <rumpe1> barf_, and don't add ppas in sources.list... for newer ubuntu-versions use /etc/apt/sources.list.d-directory
[08:40] <Gnea> !dbus
[08:42] <tawan> bit lazy, will search myself if no one knows but, Is there a channel for Unity?
[08:42] <soreau> tawan: Try #compiz-dev ;)
[08:43] <stanman246> am trying to go from virtualbox to kvm, but i get a bsod on my converted harddisk. Anyone knows how to sort this one out?
[08:43] <tawan> thanks soreau
[08:45] <soreau> stanman246: If youve got bsod, you probably want #windows
[08:45] <dr0id> hello, I am having problem connecting to a ftp server to download files :(
[08:45] <soreau> dr0id: How are you trying to connect?
[08:45] <dr0id> they asked me to use ftps or ftpes, but it won't work with gftp or filezilla, any idea ?
[08:45] <dr0id> also tried Konqueror
[08:45] <soreau> dr0id: Which version of ubuntu?
[08:45] <dr0id> 9.10
[08:46] <parasol> hi
[08:46] <Sibo> hi
[08:46] <dr0id> I am just so tired and sad now :(
[08:46] <soreau> dr0id: In the Places menu, do you see Connect to Server?
[08:46] <dr0id> I tried in windows too (with filezilla) , what could be wrong ?
[08:47] <dr0id> soreau: umm, where ?
[08:48] <soreau> dr0id: I guess you are using kde then?
[08:48] <dr0id> yes, but I have also tried in 10.10 gnome
[08:48] <dr0id> and windows xp 3
[08:48] <soreau> dr0id: Sounds like the problem i server side
[08:48] <soreau> is*
[08:49] <hn> how to start dhcp server on startup in ubuntu
[08:49] <hn> ??
[08:49] <soreau> hn: Just install dhcp and configure it. Services should start automatically
[08:49] <dr0id> soreau: :(
[08:51] <hn> ok,if i want to do it in shell script means if i put the command in .sh file and i run it should work rite
[08:51] <th0r> dr0id: this page has some info on using ftps...https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/ftp-server.html
[08:56] <jhattara> are there any free tools that would collate system state information, and display them on a webpage, preferrably with history graphs ?
[08:56] <iceroot_> jhattara: nagios?
[08:57] <greppy> jhattara: munin
[08:58] <jhattara> thanks, i'll check them out
[09:00] <khannz> Hiz, guys. Who can check out http://ru.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ address? is it working or?..
[09:01] <sagaci> khannz: doesn't look like it
[09:02] <jpds> khannz: Looks like Yandex is having issues.
[09:06] <loobuntu> !freeze
[09:07] <jhattara> iceroot_, did nagios have built-in trending tools ? from reading the stuff about it i understood that it needs a separate plugin (nagiosgrapher?)
[09:08] <mokito> Hello people!
[09:08] <trollboy> Shouldn't ubuntu detect my wireless usb card right away?
[09:08] <khannz> sagaci, ty
[09:09] <jhattara> trollboy, what make and model ?
[09:09] <loobuntu> hi, where do I start to troubleshoot a freezing issue? I've read the X freeze wiki, but it doesn't seem to have anything related.  mostly intel video stuff. i have ati graphics. are there some logs I should try looking at first?
[09:09] <iceroot_> jhattara: correct, its not build-in
[09:09] <trollboy> Belkinn150
[09:09] <mokito> Can anybody recommend a lightweight text-based email client?
[09:09] <trollboy> Belkin n150 I mean
[09:09] <khannz> jpds, ty you too. maybe i can just comment this strings in apt sources list?
[09:09] <loobuntu> mokito, pine?
[09:10] <loobuntu> used that one before?
[09:10] <krzys123> Hi, Ive got troubles with font colors... It whole the time changes color from standard. Can I do anything with it? Also It start to lagging when PC works to long... I have gnome and 12 mb ram
[09:10] <H3r0> hi all
[09:10] <mokito> I would like to be able to fetch my emails with a simple command
[09:10] <krzys123> 512*
[09:10] <H3r0> can someone help me please?
[09:10] <H3r0> I don't know why my pc don't turn off :\
[09:10] <jpds> khannz: Or just wait until they're back.

[09:11] <zamba> i need a graphical ftp client in ubuntu that supports TLS
[09:11] <Prinler> Anyone good at driver tweeking?
[09:11] <loobuntu> mokito, http://www.washington.edu/alpine/acquire/
[09:11] <khannz> jpds, heh, ok ok, damn Yandex...
[09:12] <rumpe1> zamba, nautilus?
[09:12] <rumpe1> zamba, places->connection to server->ftp....
[09:13] <jhattara> trollboy, afaik there's no native support, you need to use the windows drivers through ndiswrapper
[09:13] <trollboy> jhattara, thoughts?
[09:13] <zamba> rumpe1: and how do i establish a secure connection here?
[09:13] <trollboy> ok
[09:13] <rumpe1> zamba, well... then ftp might be the worst choice
[09:13] <zamba> rumpe1: that's what i mean by "supports TLS"
[09:14] <rumpe1> zamba, connection to another linux-OS?
[09:15] <andai> my clock's an hour early
[09:15] <andai> correct timezone
[09:15] <H3r0> can someone help me please?
[09:15] <zamba> rumpe1: ah, screw that.. i went for scp instead
[09:15] <dean[w]> I have a curious problem with my ubuntu install. When I lock my screen and come into work the next day everything works fine. But when I come in on a monday after locking on a friday evening I cannot log in no matter what I try. The only way to get back in is to click "Switch user" then select my user and type the password in the different dialog
[09:15] <dean[w]> Why would this happen?
[09:16] <rumpe1> zamba, good choice
[09:16] <andai> what's the command for the Time And Date applet?
[09:16] <rumpe1> zamba, http://mywiki.wooledge.org/FtpMustDie
[09:16] <jpds> andai: time-admin
[09:16] <andai> ty
[09:17] <krzys123> Hi, Ive got troubles with font colors... It whole the time changes color from standard. Can I do anything with it? Also It start to lagging when PC works to long... I have gnome and 512 mb ram. Half of RAM is used but 70mb swap is in use.
[09:18] <puppy> H3r0: describe ur problem...what os u installed....when the problem started coming like that
[09:18] <zimnyx> I got two disks: /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. Is it unusual that UUID(sda1) == UUID(sdb1) ? The side effect is that ubuntu mounts randomly sda1 or sdb1 as root, because grub.cnf has root=that UUID :-)
[09:19] <rlp10> What's the easiest solution for hosting a virtual windows server under ubuntu?
[09:19] <zimnyx> In fact it not randomlny. It's one after another every time.
[09:19] <Hiz>  libglib2.0-dev: Depends: libglib2.0-0 (= 2.24.0-0ubuntu4) but 2.24.1-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
[09:20] <Hiz> E: Broken packages
[09:20] <Hiz> how can i solve this problem,? ubuntu 10.04 thx
[09:20] <zimnyx> apt-get -f install
[09:20] <ale_> hi, I need to set a second IP address in Ubuntu, and I'm accessing the machine via ssh. How can I do it?
[09:20] <Hiz> zimnyx: thx
[09:22] <rumpe1> zimnyx, well.... it's absolutely not normal  ... wikipedia: "The probability of one duplicate would be about 50% if every person on earth owns 600 million UUIDs."
[09:22] <[thor]> hah
[09:22] <Skater> #ubuntuforums
[09:22] <krzys123> ale_: ifconfig ?
[09:23] <ale_> I'm not very familiar with it
[09:23] <ale_> I'm not very familiar with it. Also, I'd like that the second IP will still be there when rebooting.
[09:24] <tsimpson> zimnyx: you should probably change the UUID of one/both
[09:24] <zimnyx> tsimpson: Those disk were in FakeRaid. I switched Raid off. Maybe thats why such weird UUIDs.
[09:25] <tsimpson> it could be, if the system "sees" it as one partition, it'll have one UUID
[09:25] <rumpe1> zimnyx, maybe this helps you: http://nixcraft.com/shell-scripting/948-change-uuid-ext3-partition.html
[09:25] <robot7p> hey, Ubuntu create automatic swap memory in installation?
[09:26] <IanWizard> way to inhibit power management (like inhibit applet) from command line?
[09:26] <krzys123> ale_: There was some config file to set up your network configuration but I dont know how its name...
[09:26] <tsimpson> zimnyx: you can use "uuidgen" to generate new UUIDs, and "tune2fs -U <new UUID> /dev/diskPart" to change it (for ext2/3/4)
[09:27] <krzys123> Ive got troubles with font colors... It whole the time changes color from standard. Can I do anything with it? Also It start to lagging when PC works to long... I have gnome and 512 mb ram. Half of RAM is used but 70mb swap is in use.
[09:27] <robot7p> hey, Ubuntu create automatically swap memory on installation?
[09:27] <krzys123> depends what you choose on instalation
[09:27] <robot7p> I choose automatic
[09:27] <zimnyx> tsimpson: thanks!
[09:27] <krzys123> so I think so
[09:28] <robot7p> hm ok
[09:28] <krzys123> :)
[09:28] <IanWizard> robot7p, then yes
[09:28] <robot7p> in the middle of installation my system crash..
[09:28] <krzys123> sudo fdisk -l if you want to check it
[09:28] <IanWizard> is there a way to "inhibit" hal from the command line?
[09:29] <robot7p> when I was setting the keybord and location
[09:29] <Guest79747> http://bux4ad.com/_2ba3a196.htm
[09:29] <robot7p> so.. I took off computer and now I'm will configure manually partition..
[09:31] <[thor]> IanWizard: i'm afraid i can't do that IanWizard.
[09:31] <star_> Hi
[09:31] <[thor]> couldn'
[09:31] <[thor]> t resist
[09:31] <IanWizard> [thor], it was lost on me.  sorry.
[09:32] <DiploCat> Does anyone know how to delete a file from a read-only UDF filesystem?
[09:32] <IanWizard> DiploCat, yes, find a way to mount it read-write, but if it's udf, it's probably a cd, which you can't erase, of course.
[09:33] <robot7p> ok.. Ubuntu put my swap memory to 6gb
[09:33] <star_> too large
[09:33] <robot7p> yah..
[09:33] <star_> your system is 64bit ?
[09:33] <DiploCat> IanWizard, it's an ISO file that I've mounted using #mount -o loop -t udf /mnt/iso foo.iso -- but it stays read only, even when I add the -rw (read/write) option :(
[09:34] <kjelle> hi, how can I prevent other users from seeing the entire process-list in ubuntu (10.04)?
[09:34] <swazzy> does any one know about file share nicotine? i have a lil problem downloading, music.
[09:34] <llutz> DiploCat: you can't mount an iso rw, extract it, delete what you want, build new iso
[09:34] <jatt> how do I put a volume control in the panel?
[09:34] <star_> you can't edit the iso through mounting it
[09:34] <robot7p> no x86
[09:34] <jatt> I tried "Add to panel" but I don't see a volume control there
[09:34] <DiploCat> ahh, ok thanks llutz, I'll give that a try
[09:35] <IanWizard> DiploCat mount -o loop,rw
[09:35] <jatt> Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS
[09:35] <IanWizard> DiploCat, shouldn't make a difference, but it may.
[09:35] <robot7p> I'll decrease the swap memory after start Ubuntu
[09:35] <DiploCat> IanWizard, yeah it doesn't... I'll try rebuilding the ISO I guess
[09:35] <IanWizard> DiploCat, never mind, I yield to llutz
[09:36] <robot7p> because my laptop have 2 gb of memory
[09:36] <robot7p> so... 1 gb swap memory is enaugh
[09:37] <crond> robot7p, unless you're on a laptop and want hibernate capability
[09:38] <crond> robot7p, cause if so, you need a swap of at least double your RAM size
[09:38] <kjelle> To disallow non-root users to see all processes (-a) do I need SELinux or something?Å
[09:38] <rwat> I've got a small server (atom-based) used for backup storage which has 2x2TB Seagate barracuda drives. ATM I'm experiencing very slow write access. I realise that the intel atom isn't going to set the world alight but it doesn't seem to bound to cpu - any idea where to start looking?
[09:39] <rwat> when I say slow I mean writing at about 10MB/sec
[09:39] <robot7p> hm I'm installing on a laptop
[09:39] <rwat> theoretical limit should be about 300MB/sec
[09:40] <llutz> crond: hibernation needs swap = RAM-size, why should one double it?
[09:40] <crond> llutz, true, my bad
[09:40] <rwat> you can never have too much swap
[09:41] <rwat> disk space is so cheap these days too
[09:41] <crond> rwat, I dunno, I never touch my swap
[09:41] <llutz> swap in most cases is wasted hd-space
[09:41] <crond> but its there
[09:41] <DiploCat> I have too much swap... it's always 0% used
[09:41] <robot7p> depends of your memory size
[09:41]  * Gnea wonders why dbus has to suck so hard...
[09:41] <robot7p> memory ram
[09:42] <rwat> you shouldn't be using it normally, it's there for the abnormal situations
[09:42] <robot7p> yeah..
[09:42] <Ascavasaion> Why have they deprecated audo CDs playing through the audio cable and put the load on the hard disk?
[09:42] <rwat> Ascavasaion: they = who?
[09:42] <Gnea> Ascavasaion: when did this happen?
[09:42] <robot7p> if you have more then 1 gb of memory ram you dont need to be worry with swap memory
[09:43] <robot7p> just put 1 gb...
[09:43] <rwat> robot7p: I couldn't disagree more
[09:43] <Ascavasaion> I do not know... I just imagined it had been done because my Audio CD is hiccupping on my old machine.
[09:45] <rwat> robot7p: I've got one machine with 12GB RAM - I've still put 2GB swap on it
[09:45] <jargon-> i have libnss-ldap installed but `dpkg-reconfigure libnss-ldap` returns nothing

[09:46] <EvilPhoenix> hi i need to install g++ 4.5, how do I do that, since its not in the repos?
[09:47] <rwat> EvilPhoenix: you can try building it from source. why do you need it?
[09:47] <EvilPhoenix> rwat:  to compile eir.  the most recent version of eir requires 4.5 or newer
[09:47] <Skater> Hello All. I am very new to this and running 10.10. I am looking for some step by step instruction on getting my HDMI Video to work I have Daul GTX 295 cards. Can anyone assist me please?
[09:48]  * rwat doesn't know eir
[09:48] <EvilPhoenix> rwat:  its the bot in #defocus :P
[09:50] <rwat> EvilPhoenix: which ubuntu are you running?
[09:50] <EvilPhoenix> rwat:  10.04
[09:50] <Ascavasaion> How do I enable digital audio then?  So that it plays with the audio cable from CDROM to soundcard?
[09:51] <rwat> Skater: I don't know - what happens if you boot up with hdmi connected?
[09:51] <no1peanut> Hi, I haven't noticed this before but when I was to login to my ubuntu today when typing my password it played a sound for every keystroke. Why ?! .. I dont like this - how do I turn this off ?
[09:52] <rwat> EvilPhoenix: is upgrading to 10.10 an option for you?
[09:53] <EvilPhoenix> rwat:  no
[09:53] <EvilPhoenix> rwat:  LTS only
[09:53] <EvilPhoenix> rwat:  unless you can give me an additional 10GB disk space so I can run a virtual machine of 10.10
[09:53] <EvilPhoenix> :P

[11:28] <Gnea> pegasus_: whenever you've got several lines to paste, they should go to that site, then provide the URL here
[11:28] <Ethelwulf> This is the issue I'm having
[11:28] <Ethelwulf> http://paste.ubuntu.com/566924/
[11:28] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: what is 'share'?
[11:29] <ardchoille> I'm on Ubuntu 10.10 and there's a game at Applications > Games > Logic > Lights off. When I launch it it shows a tiny window with no way to resize it. Is this a known bug?
[11:29] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: let's keep the chat here, please
[11:29] <Gnea> !pm
[11:30] <Gnea> ardchoille: no, some programs shouldn't be resized
[11:30] <Ethelwulf> it's the shared folder within a vbox
[11:30] <ardchoille> Gnea: the window shows a titlebar and nothing else. Looks like a bug to me
[11:30] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: okay, are you running that command inside or outside of vbox?
[11:30] <Ethelwulf> inside
[11:30] <Gnea> ardchoille: can you play the game?
[11:30] <pegasus_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/566925/
[11:31] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: mkay, and where is /mnt/my_shared_folder located?
[11:31] <pegasus_> hope I did the correct thing ... and sorry for flooding
[11:31] <pegasus_> in any case my computer can't see my DVD device
[11:32] <Ethelwulf> I'm assuming it's /dev/sda
[11:32] <Gnea> pegasus_: you should install the pastebinit package...
[11:32] <Gnea> pegasus_: it's a usb device?
[11:33] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: is /mnt/ on the vbox or outside?
[11:33] <sagaci> pegasus_, have you got a cd/dvd loaded into the drive
[11:33] <pegasus_> yes gnea it is a usb device
[11:33] <pegasus_> sorry after I quit with my ex bf I have no support ... and I am a complete inexpert ... :-(
[11:34] <Ethelwulf> on the vbox
[11:34] <ardchoille> Gnea: no, here's a screenshot, the game is in the red circle: http://ardchoille.nfshost.com/public/scr.jpg
[11:34] <pegasus_> for sagaci... now I will load a DVD
[11:34] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: ah okay, then mount isn't what you want, you should just make a symbolic link
[11:34] <ardchoille> Gnea: and the menu entries don't seem to work at all
[11:34] <Ethelwulf> ok
[11:35]  * Ethelwulf googles away
[11:35] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: is share in ~?
[11:35] <sagaci> pegasus_, cause usually nothing will show up in /media unless you've loaded a disc
[11:35] <Ethelwulf> share is in my windows filesystem
[11:35] <pegasus_> ahaha sorry sagaci and please call me Nancy I don't like my ex bf nick here :-P
[11:36] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: alright, so just: sudo ln -s /path/to/share /mnt/my_shared_folder
[11:36] <Ethelwulf> "ln" for link i presume?
[11:36] <Younder> jup
[11:37] <Gnea> pegasus_: it's okay, most of us are patient :)
[11:37] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: correct
[11:37] <sagaci> pegasus_, well just change your nick to nancy, since highlighting won't happen unless your nick is nancy
[11:37] <Ethelwulf> thanks : )
[11:38] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: cheers
[11:38] <pegasus_> ahah thanks gnea and thanks sagaci. you know I don't want to go back to windows ... but ubuntu is not so userfriendly at least for me
[11:38] <sagaci> pegasus_, well did anything come up when you put a disc in the drive
[11:38] <Gnea> pegasus_: well, there is a learning curve, but if you're willing to deal with it as time goes on, you'll find the benefits far outweigh anything else :)
[11:38] <Younder> pegasus_,  And what OS is?  These systems are complex..
[11:38] <Dwarg> yo guys anyone beknown with aircrack -1 channel fix???
[11:39] <Ethelwulf> I would use Ubuntu right now if ATI wrote drivers for this old laptop.
[11:39] <Dwarg> yo guys anyone beknown with aircrack -1 channel fix???
[11:39] <Gnea> !repeat | Dwarg
[11:39] <sagaci> Dwarg, probably better to reinstall and then try that patch i told you about
[11:40] <Younder> Dwarg, wait your turn , and see is anyone answers.
[11:40] <Dwarg> sagaci yay a guy i can use
[11:40] <pegasus_> you know ... generally ubuntu is easier than windows I mean ... it is userfriendly but .. when you have problems ... if you don't know anything about it you are in deep problems
[11:40] <Dwarg> yea sory guys
[11:40] <freeday> how do I run/install my visual studio c++ compiled application in Ubuntu?
[11:40] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: yeah, ATI hasn't really changed since AMD bought them, it's pretty sad because they could sure use the change
[11:40] <sagaci> pegasus_, did you find your dvd drive
[11:41] <Dwarg> agaci  i did sagaci try uninstall whole ubuntu and reinstall
[11:41] <Dwarg> and i followed the guide u showed me
[11:41] <stianhj> freeday, what libraries does the application depend on?
[11:41] <bethdo97> i have a laptop that has Windows 7 premium innstalled on it.  It is used  as a desktop replacement and has DRD-RW , wireeless networkiing  and I  use it primarily as a desktop computer.  Should I install the netbook version or the desktop version to get the most out of ubuntu as a dual boot system.  I wannt to use some of thhe multimedia applications and allso facilitate the playing of some of the older dos based FPS games thru their
[11:41] <Gnea> pegasus_: exactly my point.  so, were you able to get pastebinit installed?
[11:41] <Ethelwulf> Yeah, the most recent ATI drivers for my laptop only work on 8.?? and older :(
[11:41] <Younder> pegasus_,  Search the web. Start with ubuntu and some keywords about the problem
[11:41] <sagaci> Dwarg, what  errors are you getting
[11:41] <Dwarg> can't see anything when i do a sudo airmon-ng start wlan0
[11:41] <stianhj> bethdo97, I'd definatly go for the normal desktop version
[11:42] <stianhj> definitely*
[11:42] <freeday> stianhj, hold on got to find what are they...
[11:42] <Gnea> bethdo97: well, since netbooks don't have cd/dvd drives in them, I'd go with the desktop
[11:42] <bethdo97> 10.10 or 10.04LTS version?
[11:42] <stianhj> bethdo97, 10.10 (and 10.04 LTS if you have problems)
[11:42] <sagaci> Dwarg, so did that guide go OK, any errors?
[11:42] <Dwarg> after i ran that fix u linked after a clean install it just seems like my wireless disapeared
[11:42] <stianhj> bethdo97, i'm running 10.04 because I had problems with N networks and my intel wifi card in 10.10
[11:42] <Dwarg> diden stop or anything as i could see
[11:43] <sagaci> Dwarg, pastebin the output of airmon-ng
[11:43] <Dwarg> but when i do sudo airmon-ng start wlan0 nothing comes up except the 5 procceses it suggest i cloose if programs dosent work
[11:43] <Gnea> bethdo97: most will likely say 10.10, but I recommend 10.04
[11:43] <vooze> Hey, i use 10.10 and i use a 3G modem from telenor.. I have a problem: it connects to the computer really slow.. I have the same problem with external harddrives.. If its not ext3 or 4 it takes forever for the computer to recognise external devices.. any fix for somthing like this??
[11:43] <Dwarg> pastbin?
[11:43] <DarsVaeda> hi, i can access a server in nautilus who is on a windows network, this is also a webserver in the network, how do i access it?
[11:43] <sagaci> !paste | Dwarg
[11:43] <osmosis_paul> Hi how can i add an a line into a file at the end of the file?
[11:44] <Younder> vooze,  what connector does your computer have USB?
[11:44] <UnterNull> hi, im having problems with my 10.10 (Mozilla & Chromium have problems with fonts and flash player) can anyone help me out ? :)
[11:44] <vooze> Younder,  usb 3.0
[11:44] <bethdo97> Should I do a straight dual boot setup or a WUBI seetup of Ubuntu on my Windows 7 system?  windows 7 has to remain on the system because of work?
[11:45] <mcb_2> osmosis_paul:  Just echo "line that you want" >> <file to append>
[11:45] <Dwarg> http://paste.ubuntu.com/566933/
[11:45] <sagaci> bethdo97, dual boot is better than a wubi config
[11:45] <Dwarg> that one right?
[11:45] <bethdo97> ok
[11:45] <with23nails> Hey there. Just a quick one about building packages:
[11:45] <osmosis_paul> mcb_2, thanks i just find it in google
[11:46] <bethdo97> When will the latest releasee of Ubuntu be out?  I know the last one was 10.10 in Oct 2010?
[11:46] <sagaci> Dwarg, bugger, not even getting an interface... what's your card?
[11:46] <Dwarg> its b4311
[11:46] <mehdi> ##linux-mint
[11:46] <sagaci> bethdo97, April 2011
[11:46] <bethdo97> ok
[11:46] <Gnea> bethdo97: you can do a dualboot, but make sure you back your stuff up first
[11:46] <Ethelwulf> 6 month release cycles
[11:46] <Dwarg> and i got card to show before i run that bug fix with the -1 channel
[11:46] <sagaci> Dwarg, try installing the proprietary driver
[11:46] <Dwarg> already installed
[11:47] <Younder> vooze,  There is probably not a fix for that yet. USB3 is pretty new
[11:47] <with23nails> usually there is couple of text files (README and stuff) included with source code. Should I move information from those to /debiab/?
[11:47] <Dwarg> installed them before i did the fix
[11:47] <Dwarg> seriusl strange tho all others who psoted reply to that one said it just worked
[11:47] <Dwarg> wth have i done wrong
[11:48] <sapphz> how do i allow remote connections via terminal
[11:48] <sagaci> Dwarg, did you install the STA or B43 driver?
[11:48] <vooze> Younder, so nothing to do ? :(
[11:48] <vooze> guess i should have bought a computer with usb 2.0 ? :P
[11:49] <blahsphemer> sapphz, setup a vnc
[11:49] <Dwarg> i installed the firmware-b43-installer
[11:49] <stianhj> vooze, you have no usb 2.0 ports?
[11:49] <yuskhanzab> hello all, i have application request like IDM(Internet Download Manager). is there any software that like idm in ubuntu?
[11:49] <freeday> stianhj, how do i find out what library does my application depends on, im confused finding it on Visual Studio C++ IDE?
[11:50] <sapphz> its all set up but when i reboot, i have to tell it to allow connections again, unfortunatly i no longer have access to it directly. and currently i can only access the machine via terminal
[11:50] <Younder> vooze,  you could try: sudo echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
[11:50] <vooze> stianhj, not sure.. have to check the computer manuel to see if they are all usb 3.0
[11:50] <stianhj> vooze, for det høres litt rart ut
[11:50] <Dwarg> sagaci isent there something about modprobe b43 or somethin?
[11:51] <Dwarg> read about a guy who had to do some odd things to get hes to work not same card tho was a b4312
[11:52] <vooze> Younder, : i did this error:
[11:52] <vooze> jokke@jokkelaptop:~$ sudo echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
[11:52] <vooze> bash: /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches: Adgang nægtet
[11:52] <vooze> adgang nægtet mens no access
[11:52] <jpds> vooze: echo 3 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
[11:52] <Younder> vooze, I Know.. (Norwegian)
[11:53] <Younder> vooze, Sure you entered the sudo
[11:53] <Younder> ?
[11:53] <vooze> jpds, reply is: 3
[11:53] <jpds> Younder: See what I said.
[11:53] <jpds> vooze: Then it's done.
[11:53] <Ethelwulf> I had to jog the radio killswitch to get b43 to work on my acer
[11:53] <vooze> jpds, what then? should it be faster or?
[11:54] <with23nails> Question about building packages: http://paste.ubuntu.com/566940/
[11:54] <vooze> Younder, yeah i'm sure.. i c/p'ed your line
[11:54] <Younder> vooze, Why don't  you try?
[11:54] <Dwarg> awwww
[11:55] <vooze> Younder,  i did, same reply with or without sudo
[11:55] <Dwarg> anyone else able to tell me what to do about the driver thing after running the -1 channel fix for aircrack???
[11:55] <Younder> vooze, It's worked in the past., but my experience with USB 3.0 is limited.
[11:55] <bazhang> Dwarg, #aircrack-ng may help
[11:56] <Dwarg> ty m8 ill try that
[11:56] <jpds> Younder / vooze: The problem with sudo echo $THING > /file - is that the redirect ('>') is run as your user, and not as root, which can't write to a /proc/ file.
[11:56] <Ethelwulf> http://paste.ubuntu.com/566939/  Ok, so that went like it should but now it's telling me the link is broken when I try to open it.
[11:57] <Younder> vooze, OK. 'Sudo su', followed by 'echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches' works
[11:57] <jpds> Younder: Or, "echo 3 | sudo tee ..." as I suggested. ;)
[11:57] <Younder> vooze, then su <yourname>  afterwards
[11:58] <edwardteach>  Dwarg  have you run tail -f /var/log/messages while starting airmon
[11:58] <with23nails> Ethelwulf: Strange, the link works for me. Either way, let me explain...
[11:58] <dotslashdot> hi?
[11:59] <with23nails> Ethelwulf: What should I do with various text files that comes with source code?
[11:59] <Gnea> !hi
[11:59] <Ethelwulf> Hola!?
[11:59] <dotslashdot> Gnea: good to know :)
[11:59] <with23nails> Ethelwulf: Should I include relevant information in debian/ after issuing dh_make and delete the original files?
[12:00] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: linux doesn't utilize drive letters.
[12:00] <vooze> Younder, all worked now.. you think that should help?
[12:00]  * Ethelwulf facepalm
[12:00] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: you'll need to put the relative or absolute path in
[12:01] <sagaci> Dwarg, well sorry mate, you should be getting this
[12:01] <Ethelwulf> On the windows side, what would that look like to linux?
[12:01] <Younder> vooze, It's worked in the past., but my experience with USB 3.0 is limited.
[12:01] <vooze> okay ;) let me try
[12:02] <freeday> is their any other similar software as wine/crossover on ubuntu repo?
[12:02] <sagaci> Dwarg, http://paste.ubuntu.com/566941/
[12:02] <dotslashdot> freeday: whats wrong with WINE?
[12:02] <Gnea> Ethelwulf: it wouldn't, there is no symlinking in windows
[12:03] <freeday> yeah I tried installing my win32 app compiled in vsc++ IDE but I failed..
[12:05] <edwardteach> freeday,  have you tried    cedega ?
[12:05] <stianhj> freeday, you either need to compile the program as a windows app, and try to run i throught wine, or you need to port it to linux (switch out the Win32 GUI stuff with GTK or Qt)
[12:05] <freeday> maybe got to check on that one...
[12:05] <stianhj> etc
[12:05] <methos_> hi can anyone tell me how to disable automounting of usb disks in 10.04
[12:06] <freeday> try to run it on ubuntu...
[12:06] <freeday> i thought wine would be fine...
[12:06] <leagris> What painting program would you suggest for (yes painting). There used to be a gimp paint and some paint program supporting 16bits per RGB components in PNG image. Can you spell some good ones?
[12:06] <alin`> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjZoIxCx-HY&feature=related
[12:06] <dotslashdot> leagris: just use regular GIMP?
[12:06] <methos_> i searched a bit and it seems that one can do so by going thru "System->Preferences->Removable Drives and Media" .. but i do not see that option under preferences
[12:07] <freeday> my app has a companion like ODBC connection since is a database tool application...even ODBC installer I can't install it on wine...
[12:07] <freeday> testing it on ubuntu 10.10
[12:07] <leagris> dotslashdot, beside photo editing, Gimp lag behind in pure painting.
[12:08] <dotslashdot> leagris: painterX in wine?
[12:08] <aristidesfl> help
[12:08] <aristidesfl> fresh 10.10 desktop install
[12:09] <leagris> dotslashdot, there where a program like Painter that was able to work with 16bits per RGB components, but I can't remember of its name.
[12:09] <leagris> s/where/was
[12:09] <aristidesfl> ps/2 mouse and keyboard not working
[12:09] <aristidesfl> they did work on live cd
[12:10] <aristidesfl> besides that
[12:10] <aristidesfl> usb mouse and keyboard (combo) only work after reconnecting the usb after boot
[12:11] <aristidesfl> restart hangs on black screen
[12:11] <aristidesfl> shutdown hangs on black screen (it shuts down but requires me to press the computer power off button)
[12:12] <aristidesfl> so I tried to resolve the ps/2 problem
[12:12] <aristidesfl> adding acpi=off on grub config
[12:13] <aristidesfl> now I have another option in the boot menu, that doesn't work
[12:13] <bc81> how can i check cd/dvd drive capabilities from the terminal?
[12:13] <aristidesfl> tried to take the option from grub config and update
[12:13] <Gnea> bc81: try the eject command
[12:13] <aeiah> aristidesfl: did your shutdown/reboot problems happen before you turned acpi off?
[12:14] <bc81> Gnea: i was thinking more along the line of burning capabilities, speed etc
[12:14] <aristidesfl> aeiah: not sure
[12:14] <aristidesfl> aeiah: but I took the option out already and update grub
[12:14] <Gnea> bc81: cdrecord has some options, iirc
[12:14] <aristidesfl> aeiah: however the boot option is still there and doesn't work
[12:15] <aeiah> acpi = "advanced configuration and power interface" .. so you probably created a new prob trying to solve your other.
[12:16] <bc81> Gnea: thanks, "cdrecord -prcap" did the trick :)
[12:16] <Gnea> bc81: cheers
[12:17] <aristidesfl> reinstall everything..
[12:17] <LeGambitteur> hi there
[12:20] <LeGambitteur> I need some help plz; I want to code a small graphic quiz, with a texte file as database, what's the easiest environement I can use ?
[12:23] <LeGambitteur> if it's not the right channel, where can I find some help ?
[12:23] <Gnea> LeGambitteur: #programming perhaps
[12:24] <Younder> LeGambitteur, PHP
[12:24] <LeGambitteur> Gnea: ok thx ;)
[12:24] <Gnea> Younder: ...
[12:25] <LeGambitteur> Younder: PHP means for me in a web browser am I wrong ?
[12:25] <Gnea> you could use it in a browser
[12:25] <Pooch> who puts the citys in the database???
[12:25] <Gnea> LeGambitteur: and then use a mysql or postegresql backend for the 'text' portion
[12:25] <Pooch> I would like a city closer to me then buffalo :(
[12:25] <Gnea> Pooch: what?
[12:26] <Ethelwulf> lol
[12:26] <Pooch> for the weather thing on the toolbar
[12:26] <MaRTy> Hello from 1402
[12:26] <Pooch> or panel
[12:26] <Pooch> w/e u guys call it
[12:26] <LeGambitteur> Gnea: will take too much time I think (to learn php and mysql)
[12:26] <Gnea> Pooch: where are you?
[12:27] <Pooch> in the middle of nowhere
[12:27] <Pooch> medina ny
[12:27] <Gnea> LeGambitteur: well, what languages do you know?
[12:27] <Gnea> Pooch: interesting.
[12:27] <moorered> hello
[12:27] <W4R10CK> hi
[12:28] <Younder> LeGambitteur, No it is a web programming lanuage usually run under Apache.
[12:28] <LeGambitteur> Gnea: some delphi, and asm :p
[12:28] <W4R10CK> do you've got a interesting  exploits
[12:28] <Younder> LeGambitteur, Great for creating a web interface to databases
[12:29] <Gnea> Pooch: yeah, new york's rather limited as far as which cities are on the db
[12:29] <W4R10CK> yes
[12:29] <Pooch> i noticed
[12:29] <W4R10CK> ??
[12:29] <Gnea> LeGambitteur: ah, well php and sql would get you up and running in a most portable method
[12:30] <Gnea> LeGambitteur: if you have any familiarity with html, that would help
[12:30] <LeGambitteur> Younder: ok I see, w'll it take a long time to learn it ?
[12:30] <Pooch> i like ubuntu, seems to be running better than fedora did
[12:31] <LeGambitteur> Gnea: not that much, but it's not so hard to learn I think
[12:32] <Pooch> does open office check the grammar as well as microsoft office does?
[12:32] <Gnea> LeGambitteur: indeed
[12:32] <Ethelwulf> Pooch: yup
[12:32] <Younder> LeGambitteur, No, I don't thik so. There are like 10 million people that already know it and there is tons of help on the web. But you migh try a book from sitepoint 'www.sitepoint.com' 'Building your own database driven applications''
[12:32] <Gnea> Pooch: yes
[12:32] <osmosis_paul> Hi guys, one question, i'm trying to connect to an amazon machine that  i have by nautilus by sftp but i dont know how configurate nautilus to use the private *.pem key that i'm using to connect by ssh
[12:32] <Pooch> cool...so i can pass school
[12:32] <Pooch> good news
[12:33] <osmosis_paul> i dont know if i'm explain correctly
[12:33] <LeGambitteur> Pooch: ubuntu changed from openoffice to libre office
[12:33] <Pooch> mines got openoffice on it
[12:33] <Younder> LeGambitteur, Basic, but a good place to start.
[12:33] <Gnea> LeGambitteur: in 10.10?
[12:34] <adac> I'm trying to tunnel the mysql connection like that:  "/usr/bin/ssh -L 3306:localhost:3306 -o TCPKeepAlive=no<EMAIL_ADDRESS>-Nf" but when I try to connect to mysql server then (command mysql) then I get: ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) What do I have to specify in additional here?
[12:34] <Tristan3199us> how do i reload my login manager. it is no longer functioning.. login at terminal works ok but gui login is not working.. i think that i have installed too many things and somehow something seems to have lost a file.. so how do i reinstall login manager..
[12:34] <Gnea> adac: tell it not to use the socket
[12:34] <LeGambitteur> Gnea: yeah Maverick
[12:34] <Gnea> LeGambitteur: ah, it's not in 10.04, just openoffice
[12:34] <adac> Gnea, what is the commeand for that? Do you know that by chance?
[12:34] <LeGambitteur> Younder: thx I'll take a look at it ;)
[12:35] <Gnea> adac: pretty sure you can set it in ~/.my.cnf
[12:35] <Tristan3199us> apt-get repair loginmanger ????
[12:35] <Gnea> adac: just model it after /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[12:35] <adac> Gnea, Ok I wil have a look at that
[12:35] <adac> thx
[12:35] <doubi> Afternoon all. Can anyone tell me where in Ubuntu 10.04 I might find the desktop keybinding that's binding <Super>s / <Mod4>s  to the "shut down menu" in the top left? It's not under Prefs > Keyboard Shortcuts, and I'm unable to find it in Compiz options.
[12:35] <LeGambitteur> Gnea: ah ok
[12:37] <Tristan3199us> anyone understand how the login manager works... i think i need to reinstall it, can anyone help with this..
[12:37] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: what leads you to believe this needs to happen?
[12:37] <xiaodongge> you  guo ren ma
[12:38] <Tristan3199us> gnea: when i boot up, everything is normal till the login screen is to appear.. i get a "recovery console" with options such as "drop to root shell"
[12:38] <Tristan3199us> at the shell i can type startx to boot into root...
[12:39] <Tristan3199us> i can login to "tristan" with the terminal but not accuall load that profile in the startx..
[12:39] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: not the correct command to utilize in that situation.
[12:39] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: you don't want a GUI then
[12:39] <Tristan3199us> plus everytime i load the root.. and click on login manager it does nothing
[12:39] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: you'll need to fsck your drives
[12:40] <rwat> Tristan3199us: you need to think why it's dropping you out to the recovery console
[12:40] <rwat> not treat that as part of everyday life
[12:40] <Gnea> this is not good...
[12:41] <Gnea> everytime I boot the ubuntu desktop cd, it locks up
[12:41] <hal> I am trying to *all* files beneath a specific directory using Nautilus. However, if I leave the search field blank or use an asterisk it doesn't run.  Does anyone know how I can achieve my objective, please?
[12:41] <jrib> hal: you're missing a verb
[12:41] <Tristan3199us> cant i type something in terminal to reset the login manager to its default or just reinstall it??
[12:42] <hal> jrib: "find" ;)
[12:42] <rwat> Tristan3199us: you can restart the login manager with "restart gdm"
[12:42] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: which is why you need to fsck the partition(s), is / all on one partition?
[12:43] <aristidesfl> why my 10.10 hand on 5 dots on restart?
[12:43] <Tristan3199us> rwat, i have tried restart gdm.. not my problem... heres another note.. if i go to system/admin/ login-manager.. it does nothing..
[12:43] <aristidesfl> er hangs
[12:43] <Tristan3199us> wont even load up..
[12:43] <Gnea> aristidesfl: something went wrong
[12:44] <aristidesfl> Gnea: just fresh installed
[12:44] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: are you paying any attention to what I'm saying?
[12:44] <Taksas027> when i want to install drivers i get SystemError: installArchives() failed, what does it mean?
[12:44] <Tristan3199us> there is no repository for the login manager anywhere???
[12:44] <Gnea> !fsck | Tristan3199us
[12:44] <Random832> aristidesfl: have you tried ctrl-alt-f2? i've found that sometimes it seems to hang but the splash screen just didn't clear
[12:44] <Tristan3199us> gnea.. i am.. your almost the only one even responding to me..
[12:44] <hal> I am trying to find/list *all* files beneath a specific directory and all subdirectories using Nautilus. However, if I leave the search field blank or use an asterisk (as a wildcard) it doesn't run.  Does anyone know how I can achieve my objective, please?
[12:45] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: it would be nice to have more of a response to my response
[12:45] <aristidesfl> Random832: too late, already pressed the reset button
[12:45] <sipior> hal: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=378291
[12:45] <aristidesfl> well.. at least now mouse and keyboard are working..
[12:45] <Random832> so try it if it does it again
[12:46] <aristidesfl> Random832: ctrl-alt-f2 does nothing
[12:46] <jrib> hal: you need to use nautilus in particular?
[12:46] <hal> jrib: no, but I don't want any file indexing
[12:47] <aristidesfl> Random832: it happens as well on shutdown..
[12:47] <Diverdude> I have a set of approximately 100 text files with in average 50 lines of text in each. I need to replace all occurances of the value 'BSD' with the value 'SIA' in all the textfiles as well as in all filenames. (All files are located in the same folder) What is the best approach to do this?
[12:47] <jrib> hal: you can use « find » in a shell
[12:47] <hal> jrib: hmm, no I'd like a gui please
[12:47] <jrib> Diverdude: use sed
[12:47] <Tristan3199us> gnea.. im on a laptop, with no cd drive and my usb isnt currently booting ubuntu...
[12:47] <Diverdude> jrib, sed?
[12:47] <jrib> Diverdude: yep...
[12:47] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: your usb... that makes little sense
[12:47] <Diverdude> jrib, is it by default in ubuntu=?
[12:48] <schnuffle> Diverdude: yes
[12:48] <jrib> Diverdude: well « sed » for the contents and you can use « rename » for the filenames.  They're both in ubuntu, yes.  You want to read some intro material on sed and regex.  Let me know if you have questions
[12:48] <Tristan3199us> ahhh.. ok???
[12:49] <Diverdude> jrib, i cannot use grep for this?
[12:49] <jrib> Diverdude: grep is for finding things
[12:49] <Diverdude> ahh right
[12:49] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: don't know what you mean by 'usb'
[12:50] <Tristan3199us> seriously or are you messing with me..
[12:50] <Gnea> seriously.
[12:50] <Miri28> Hello, Need some help here :) what is the best permission to set for users on the apache server ? 777? 755? etc.. ?
[12:51] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: 'usb' can mean one of many things, it would be appreciative if you would point out what that thing is, please
[12:51] <Tristan3199us> universal serial bus.. the little flash drives that go into the side of the computer... USB.. i put ubuntu onto the laptop using a 16 gig flash drive that is currently not at home....
[12:51] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: okay, that makes sense.
[12:51]  * Gnea headdesk
[12:52] <AdvoWork> hi there, got issues with firefox on ubuntu, when i goto print, it keeps saying US Letter, rather than A4. Ive followed endless guides and bug reports but cannot fix this. Any ideas please?
[12:52] <Tristan3199us> login manager is simply another package in the repos right??
[12:52] <Gnea> why does this livecd have to keep kernel panicing....
[12:53] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: what you're going to need to do is to fix the filesystem before you can boot into the GUI, okay?
[12:53] <Tristan3199us> gnea... couldnt i install i new login manager... from xfce or kde perhaps??
[12:53] <Tristan3199us> gnea.. ok
[12:53] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: no, it's a filesystem problem, installing new software only makes the problem worse, not solves it
[12:54] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: you wouldn't fire another bullet into a knife wound, you'd use proper first aid measures and wrap it to stop the bleeding
[12:54] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: make sense now?
[12:54] <sipior> Gnea: you must come from a rough part of town...
[12:55] <Tristan3199us> quick note... i added xfce-desktop from the repos recently.. it changed my login screen for a couple days.. that was the souce of the problem i think
[12:55] <rwat> Tristan3199us: are you getting an actual error before it drops to the recovery screen?
[12:56] <Tristan3199us> rwat.. yes but it flashs so fast i cant read it..
[12:56] <Tristan3199us> it flashs red letters for a split second and goes to the recovery console to fast to see it
[12:57] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: sorry if my analogy is a bit graphic, but it's rather appropriate given your current situation
[12:57] <Gnea> sipior: not originally, but was prepared for it..
[12:57] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: alright, but it's dropping you to the recovery console now, so that means the problems have compounded
[12:57] <Tristan3199us> but i have splash screen off... and i know it makes it to the end of the boot sequence.. just before the login screen loads
[12:58] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: are you able to shift+pageup once it's done to see some scrollback?
[12:58] <Tristan3199us> what do you mean "now".. thats the only problem really
[12:58] <Tristan3199us> i have never tried shift+pgup
[12:58] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: no, there's multiple problems involved, they need to be identified and solved in the proper order
[12:59] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: see what happens
[12:59] <ashu> hey hi everybody
[12:59] <Tristan3199us> should i reboot.. or is there a log somewhere
[12:59] <ashu> i m trying to boot debian on  android 2.2 froyo
[12:59] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: well at what state is your system at now? are you at a console or what?
[12:59] <ashu> need help
[12:59] <Gnea> ashu: #debian is where you need to ask
[13:00] <broklap> hi everyone
[13:00] <anonboots> Yes hello. NE rootkit for 9.04, pl0x.
[13:00] <Gnea> anonboots: what's 'pl0x'?
[13:00] <LeGambitteur> hi
[13:00] <ashu> its okay but i could also try ubuntu
[13:00] <ashu> @gnea
[13:00] <oy> Gnome does not start:  metacity:ERROR:ui/ui.c:752:meta_ui_get_default_window_icon: assertion failed: (default_icon)
[13:01] <oy> how can a desktop icon theme be set?
[13:01] <anonboots> I would go somewhere else asking for a rootkit, but most other places are full of morons.
[13:01] <anonboots> So, NE rootkit for 9.04 to be had?
[13:01] <Gnea> ashu: no idea about android, you'll need to ask in #debian.
[13:01] <ashu> okay bye
[13:01] <ashu> den
[13:01] <Gnea> anonboots: yeah, you'll need to speak english here, please.
[13:02] <Gnea> this isn't a leetspeak channel
[13:02] <Tristan3199us> gnea.. ok so i have 3 partitions.. one is my almost broken ubuntu 10.10.. one is backtrack "aka kde".. and the other is just a storage partition... i can boot from ubuntu as root via the command prompt and using startx it boots up using root.. i can type login , and log in via terminal, but it seems useless because startx still loads as root.. and backtrack works just fine..
[13:02] <anonboots> Would any of you fine people happen to have the name and or location where I can find a rootkit for Ubuntu 9.04 please? Your assistance would be much appreciated.
[13:03] <sipior> anonboots: asking about rootkits here would be considered "poor form".
[13:03] <Tristan3199us> gnea: im currently using ubuntu 10.10 as root
[13:03] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: then you should boot into backtrack and then fsck your ubuntu partition from there
[13:03] <Tristan3199us> than what??
[13:03] <rwat> anonboots: what do you need it for?
[13:03] <Faithful> where is the autogenerated xorg.conf file stashed in Maverick?
[13:03] <Gnea> !9.04
[13:03] <anonboots> Testing my IRC network.
[13:03] <Gnea> !eol | anonboots
[13:04] <sipior> anonboots: oh, aye.
[13:04] <Gnea> anonboots: I would just google for one
[13:04] <popey> Faithful: there is no generated xorg.conf, xorg configures itself without an xorg.conf. You can however put one in /etc/X11/ if you want
[13:04] <anonboots> Yea, I did, but I only ended up finding links to worthless threads on HackForums.
[13:04] <Faithful> popey, thanks
[13:05] <anonboots> But otherwise, 9.04 is EOF now? I was unaware. Thanks for that tidbit.
[13:05] <Tristan3199us> gnea: than what.. just use the four letters fsck while in the terminal in backtrack??
[13:05] <anonboots> EOL. Derp. Its still early.
[13:05] <Gnea> anonboots: really? what search items did you query with?
[13:05] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: pretty much, have you ever used it before?
[13:06] <Tristan3199us> gnea: no, is it something i should be doing regularly
[13:06] <anonboots> Various configurations of "rootkit 9.04" "ubuntu rootkit" ect and ect.
[13:06] <rwat> Tristan3199us: either that or you can remount read-only and fsck
[13:06] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: if the system won't do it for you, it helps to know how to do it manually
[13:06] <Gnea> rwat: he's got backtrack on another partition and can boot to it
[13:07] <rwat> Gnea: I've no idea what backtrack is
[13:07] <rwat> I suppose I can guess
[13:07] <Gnea> rwat: an unofficial derivative of ubuntu
[13:07] <Tristan3199us> rwat.. just consider it a really basic version of kde
[13:07] <anonboots> Backtrack is a penetration testing distribution.
[13:07] <rwat> I don't see what that's go to offer that remounting read-only doesn't
[13:08] <Gnea> rwat: point is to fsck the ubuntu from the backtrack, not have to worry about remounting
[13:08] <bc81> is there a cli trick to opening the only newest file in a given directory?
[13:08] <Tristan3199us> gnea.. i think its easier to remount and stay in chat than to reboot to another os and try to remember everything
[13:08] <rwat> Gnea: yeah I can see that, but it's quicker to remount
[13:09] <Gnea> quicker isn't always safer
[13:09] <bc81> let me rephrase that (typo) is there a cli trick to opening "the" newest file in a given directory?
[13:09] <sacarlson> rwat: backtrack is just a mild modification of ubuntu/debian what works for us normaly will work for them
[13:09] <Gnea> the fact he's booted into X via startx is bad enough
[13:09] <Gnea> bc81: ls -l will show you all of the timestamps
[13:10] <Tristan3199us> so gnea.. ill log out and back in 4 minutes or so... will you still help me..
[13:10] <Tristan3199us> ill load up backtrack instead.. and ill try that shift+pgup first and tell you what i see
[13:10] <Gnea> rwat: in fact, X is going to need the fs to be rw, so he could start fscking and the whole thing could just freeze on him ... in the middle of a fsck, that's potentially REALLY bad news. No, he's better off booting to backtrack and getting back on irc.
[13:11] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: okay
[13:11] <Taksas027> how to look if im on 32bit or 64?
[13:11] <Tristan3199us> gnea: thank you
[13:11] <rwat> Gnea: yeah, well I would always fsck from a console wherever possible
[13:11] <Gnea> Taksas027: uname -m
[13:11] <bc81> Gnea: ok, but for eg. i'd like to open the "newest" text file among many text files with a single command..is it possible?
[13:11] <Gnea> rwat: console's fine, but so's a GUI as long as it's not booted off of the target partition
[13:11] <Tristan3199us> gnea: should i type something in the terminal before i load backtrack
[13:11] <Taksas027> i686 means64?
[13:12] <Gnea> Taksas027: no, 32bit. x86_64 would be 64bit
[13:12] <Tristan3199us> back track uses a terminal login instead of gui so i can enter commands before booting..
[13:12] <bc81> Gnea: i suppose this funtion would need to be a script of some sort?
[13:12] <Taksas027> ah ok, thx
[13:12] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: yeah, get on irc, you should have xchat there already
[13:13] <Gnea> bc81: possibly, haven't heard of doing anything like that, though.... just a matter of looking and seeing what's there, really
[13:13] <root_> hey
[13:13] <bc81> Gnea: k, thanks again :)
[13:13] <Gnea> bc81: you could script it to create a symlink to the last file
[13:13] <Tristan3199us> never used xchat in the terminal.. this should be interesting.. anything i need to know or is it almost self explanitory
[13:13] <Gnea> bc81: then just edit the symlink
[13:13] <bc81> Gnea: that is a good idea
[13:13] <Pen_island> hi everyone
[13:13] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: uh, BT should boot into kde with startx
[13:14] <Tristan3199us> will do... thanks

[13:31] <tristan3199> Gnea: do i want to boot how i used to before this recovery console got in the mix or into root with startx
[13:31] <rwat> offsense: xchat?
[13:32] <doubi> I have a mystery keyboard shortcut. Where could it be set, apart from Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts or in Compiz?
[13:32] <Gnea> tristan3199: the normal way
[13:32] <offsense> rwat: xchat? the irc client?
[13:32] <Younder> rwat, what about it? It is a X windows program. Not X rated.
[13:32] <tristan3199> Gnea: Thank you, BRB
[13:32] <xro> mcb_2, no, there is no  /var/run/dbus
[13:33] <rwat> offsense: sorry ignore me, I've still not had enough coffee
[13:33] <rwat> can pidgin do twitter these days?
[13:33] <Younder> no
[13:33] <mcb_2> xro: In my Ubuntu, I have this ---> drwxr-xr-x  2 messagebus  messagebus    80 2011-02-14 08:05 dbus
[13:33] <jpds> Why would pidgin, an IM client, want to do twitter?
[13:34] <offsense> yes ppl, any suggestion for twitter client except gwibber
[13:34] <rwat> jpds: just because Adium (mac equivalent) does do twitter
[13:34] <Gnea> jpds: twitter is basically IM with lots of lag and permeability
[13:34] <xro> mcb_2, in /var/run/ ? and in ubuntu server 10.04 64bits?
[13:34] <mcb_2> xro: And I got this inside the directory: ---> srwxrwxrwx  1 root       root         0 2011-02-14 08:05 system_bus_socket
[13:34] <x_> wazzzappp
[13:35] <sipior> xro: how are you attempting to start mysqld?
[13:35] <mcb_2> It is an Ubuntu 10.10, but you should have the same files.....
[13:35] <Gnea> UGH, this cd won't stop crashing during install :(
[13:35] <gilmaalves> gilmaalves
[13:35] <Tristan3199us> gnea: back... whats the dbus
[13:35] <Gnea> I need help troubleshooting this... I've tried nomodeset, pci=routeirq....
[13:35] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: huh?
[13:35] <mcb_2> Of what i have read if you don't have this file, Ubuntu won`t be able to open the socket to listen for the connect to the server.....
[13:36] <^Phantom2^> Why does ubuntu run my 2GHz CPU @ 994MHz ?
[13:36] <Tristan3199us> gnea: i noticed it says dbus main process, broken pipe
[13:36] <xro> sipior, i tried "/etc/ini.d/mysql start" "start mysql" "service mysql start"
[13:36] <sipior> xro: as root?
[13:36] <mcb_2> Tty creating the files by hand.... Give then the permission and try to start it.
[13:36] <Gnea> I'm trying to install Ubuntu Desktop 10.04 AMD64 to a system and it keeps crashing at startup, I'm trying to figure out what's causing it but I just can't seem to, any ideas?
[13:36] <xro> sipior, with sudo [command]
[13:36] <Tristan3199us> still the same by the way
[13:36] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: uh, is the login coming up?
[13:36] <sipior> xro: and can you pastebin the exact error that is reported?
[13:37] <Tristan3199us> nope.. same recovery console
[13:37] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: can you switch tty's with alt-F1, alt-F2, alt-F3...alt-F6?
[13:37] <Tristan3199us> i could only catch bits because it doesnt stay on screen.. but i noticed it says the dbun main process terminated due to a broken pipe
[13:38] <^Phantom2^> um
[13:38] <Tristan3199us> no idea what a dbus or broken pipe is
[13:38] <^Phantom2^> how do i get the controls back on totem?
[13:38] <^Phantom2^> I accidentally made them go away
[13:38] <Tristan3199us> gnea... i can try..
[13:38] <Gnea> Tristan3199us: ok, run this command:  ps axf | grep dbus | wc -l  <-- what number does that give?
[13:39] <Tristan3199us> will it act the same before x is loaded.. can i try those keys in terminal to see if they work..?
[13:39] <^Phantom2^> oh nvm, i got them back
