[11:13] <krummlauf> yes
[11:13] <krummlauf> netbook
[11:13] <om26er> krummlauf: its screen is small
[11:13] <courpse> Different i can see is mail(); is using www-data as user, and sendmail is using courpse as user.
[11:13] <courpse> Any ideas anyone?
[11:13] <krummlauf> well whats the fix
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> krummlauf:  netbooks are annoyin in how 'short' the screns are . use alt-click to drag windows UP higher.
[11:13] <Jordan_U> dkg: If you are using grub2 try asking in #grub
[11:13] <Lewis> Is it possible to remove the GRUB loader and just use the normal Windows Boot Menu?
[11:13] <eddym> http://pastebin.com/d2b2bfa88 can any1 help with gscpa     hello anyone?
[11:13] <krummlauf> dr_willis: THANKS!
[11:13] <krummlauf> lol
[11:14] <Billiard> Lewis: afaik no
[11:14] <Dr_Willis> krummlauf:  theres a tool out for windows that gives windows the same feature its kalled (badly) 'kde-resizer' (yes its a windows app)
[11:14] <Lewis> Billiard: Thanks anyway :)
[11:14] <courpse> Using postfix and php5, Can send mail using terminal's sendmail, the log says it all went fine, when using php's mail(); which uses sendmail as well, mail.log says it went off fine, but it never arrives.
[11:14] <florian_> hello, how comes that my alsamixer master and surround is muted automatically at startup? though I've de-muted it manually before, in the terminal alsamixer?
[11:14] <courpse> Different i can see is mail(); is using www-data as user, and sendmail is using courpse as user.
[11:14] <Dr_Willis> krummlauf:  im holding off getting a new netbook till come come out with 'higher res' screens
[11:14] <courpse> Never had this problem with jaunty, just karmic.
[11:14] <Jordan_U> Lewis: Do you want to be able to boot Ubuntu from the windows menu?
[11:14] <dkg> Jordan_U: many thanks. will do.
[11:14] <om26er> krummlauf: i  think that won't be called netbook
[11:14] <Jordan_U> dkg: np
[11:15] <krummlauf> this netbook is fine
[11:15] <krummlauf> i like it, in fact
[11:15] <krummlauf> it does everything i want it to do
[11:15] <Dr_Willis> krummlauf:  the wife took mine. :)
[11:15] <krummlauf> except for these dang windows!
[11:15] <krummlauf> well, instead of buying a new 1000 dollar pc i got this
[11:15] <amigojapan> hi, anyone have any idea why I can redirect the output of ls like this , ls > logfile.log    but I cant redirect the output of this vncserver > logfile.log     ???
[11:15] <krummlauf> then i had it dual boot for ubuntu
[11:15] <om26er> krummlauf: those windows are improved in karmic as compared to jaunty
[11:15] <krummlauf> pretty awesome
[11:15] <Dr_Willis> krummlauf:  the various netbook interfaces may be worth looking into also.
[11:15] <krummlauf> im not planning to upgrade
[11:16] <krummlauf> i heard there were problems with the upgrade
[11:16] <Dr_Willis> krummlauf:  still some games/programs just dont handle a 800 tall screen very well
[11:16] <llutz> amigojapan: try: vncserver > logfile.log 2>&1
[11:16] <krummlauf> dr_willis: im not a gamer
[11:16] <Jordan_U> amigojapan: vncserver is writing to stderr ( where error messages are sent ) try "vncserver 2> logfile.log"
[11:16] <Dr_Willis> krummlauf:  not just games.. as you discovered
[11:16] <krummlauf> dr_willis: we can go back and forth forever
[11:16] <om26er> ccsm screen don't fit exacly
[11:16] <krummlauf> thanks for the advice though
[11:16] <amigojapan> thanx llutz and Jordan_U
[11:16] <Dr_Willis> krummlauf:  nothing like lots of dialogs that are SUPER tall to get annoying. Gnome in 9.10 fixed a lot of those quirks
[11:16] <Asad-away> what does this error mean:  "[   18.534292] wifi%d: unable to attach hardware: 'Hardware revision not supported' (HAL status 13)"  ?
[11:17] <krummlauf> hehehehe
[11:17] <krummlauf> ummmm
[11:17] <Dr_Willis> amigojapan:  vncserver here puts a log in .vnc/* for  my setup
[11:17] <krummlauf> ill try your first suggestion
[11:17] <krummlauf> i MAY consider upgrading
[11:17] <jarle> Is there a way I can install an older kernel than 2.6.31-15-generic that comes with ubuntu 9.10?
[11:18] <om26er> jarle: disable <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:18] <om26er> oh sorry
[11:18] <om26er> jarle: how old kernel?
[11:18] <Dr_Willis> Kernel 1.0.1 ? :)
[11:18] <om26er> jarle: newer kernels are better
[11:19] <krummlauf> worked like a charm!
[11:19] <jarle> om26er: 2.6.20 or so...
[11:19] <krummlauf> huzzahhhhhh
[11:19] <om26er> jarle: no
[11:19] <krummlauf> no upgrade 4 me hee hee!
[11:19] <krummlauf> netbook wins again!
[11:19] <om26er> !enter | krummlauf
[11:19] <jarle> opensasc-ng does not work with kernel 2.6.31 :(
[11:19] <krummlauf> !enter | om26er
[11:19] <Dr_Willis> krummlauf:  theres been major updates in the various netbook variants. Worthj checking out on a live flash drive at least some day
[11:19] <krummlauf> heheheheheheheh take that
[11:19] <ninel> anyone knows why  alternate CD image still wants netconnection to download packages from?
[11:20] <krummlauf> dr_willis: i got ubuntu thru a website
[11:20] <krummlauf> cd-less
[11:20] <krummlauf> i cant thank the bloke who showed it to me enough
[11:20] <om26er> !usb | krummlauf
[11:20] <krummlauf> om26er: you dont even need a usb flash-drive!
[11:21] <Lewis> The way i installed Ubuntu means it made a partition, but the partition doesn't have a name, and won't allow me to rename it or resize it or anything. It's really annoying because i'm running out of room in this partition. How do i give it a name?
[11:22] <iceroot> Lewis: a name?
[11:22] <krummlauf> there was a man who had a partition and it didnt have a name-o
[11:22] <iceroot> Lewis: look at fdisk -l
[11:22] <ninel> Lewis: i guess you really want to increase room in your Ubuntu's /
[11:22] <iceroot> Lewis: they are called /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 and so on
[11:23] <Dr_Willis> Lewis:  you can LABEL a ext2/3/4  fileysstem with the tune2fs command.. but not having a label wont prevent you frp, resizeing it
[11:24] <Saz|Laptop_> so when did wine make it a pain to run any program in sudo?
[11:24] <iceroot> Saz|Laptop_: why running them with sudo?
[11:24] <Dr_Willis> cant say that ive ever needed to run a wine app as root..
[11:24] <jongbergs_> !resetpanels
[11:25] <Saz|Laptop_> iceroot, I have a program which needs access to devices in /dev/
[11:25] <moldor> quit
[11:25] <Lewis> I went into Windows 7 for it's partition manager. I took a look and saw my C Drive (Windows 7), System Reserved (for Windows 7), E Drive (all my personal files), and a blank partition that contains Ubuntu, and it won't let me resize it or anything.
[11:25] <iceroot> Saz|Laptop_: then put the devices into wine
[11:25] <iceroot> Saz|Laptop_: winecfg
[11:25] <Saz|Laptop_> iceroot, when running in wine WinHex allows you to put in /dev/sd*
[11:25] <Dr_Willis> wine accessing /dev/XXXX is sort of scary
[11:25] <jetienne_> q. i would like to have pidgin icon on the "notification area" when it is running, how can i do that ?
[11:26] <Saz|Laptop_> Dr_Willis, if the program supports it, I don't see what's the problem
[11:26] <Saz|Laptop_> winhex is the only program that will let me dump space marked as free on an NTFS partition
[11:26] <Saz|Laptop_> everything else will dump the entire drive
[11:26] <Dr_Willis> Saz|Laptop_:  im suprised it even supports it.  hope its not going to trash anything for you
[11:26] <eddym> hey iceroot how can i correct this? http://pastebin.com/d2b2bfa88
[11:27] <eddym> iceroot, trying to compile gspca
[11:27] <Saz|Laptop_> Dr_Willis, it lists my partitions and I'm able to explore one of my NTFS partitions
[11:27] <Saz|Laptop_> hell, I'm able to load up my mac drive as well and it lists my HFS+ partition
[11:27] <iceroot> eddym: as i said, ask the channel, i dont know
[11:27] <Dr_Willis> Saz|Laptop_:  good luck. all i can say is. I hope you got backups handy also.
[11:27] <krummlauf> ok why is vlc freezing after i save changes
[11:27] <eddym> iceroot, np
[11:27] <Saz|Laptop_> I was surprised when I selected open disk and it specifically asked me for a linux device file
[11:27] <krummlauf> it totally did not expect me to figure out how to hit save
[11:27] <Saz|Laptop_> apparently the program is wine-aware
[11:29] <Saz|Laptop_> I didnt think wine identified itself in any way a program could figure out
[11:29] <Clay1> Hey guys can someone here help me out please?
[11:30] <Clay1> Anyone?
[11:30] <jetienne_> q. i would like to have pidgin icon on the "notification area" when it is running, how can i do that ?
[11:30] <ninel> Clay1: the rule is to start asking questions in a single line
[11:30] <sobersabre> need help with xorg setup. is there a command to dump my current xorg setup into arbitrary xorg.conf file for further tweaking ?
[11:30] <ninel> jetienne_: it should give you the icon from the preferences menu
[11:31] <sobersabre> I am on ubuntu 9.10
[11:31] <jetienne_> ninel: ? what do you mean ? which preference menu ?
[11:31] <ninel> press control+P in your pidgin @jetienne_
[11:31] <Lewis> I want to resize my Ubuntu partition, and be able to access it when im using Windows 7 (i have two OS' on here). I went into Windows 7 for it's partition manager. I took a look and saw my C Drive (Windows 7), System Reserved (for Windows 7), E Drive (all my personal files), and a blank partition that contains Ubuntu, and it won't let me resize it or anything. What do i do?
[11:32] <jetienne_> ninel: excelent, it did the job. thanks
[11:32] <manuel_> hi
[11:32] <ninel> Lewis: Windows7 is blind about Linux partitions
[11:32] <om26er> !hi | manuel_
[11:33] <Clay1> Im having issues with ubuntu(i installed it today) and basically my video card isn't working on it. I have a radeon 3100. And also my microphone wont work on it and im pretty sure its not muted so i think it might be having a driver issue over all. But im not sure what to do im very new to this.
[11:33] <manuel_> i just wnat to know if the bugs in the reloasenotes of 910 are fixed now
[11:33] <Lewis> ninel: okay i can go without accessing Ubuntu's partition, but how do i resize it at least? I have about 400MB left :/
[11:33] <manuel_> i just wnat to know if the bugs in m is encthe reloasenotes of 910 are fixed now e
[11:33] <ninel> Lewis you can do that with LiveCD
[11:33] <BlouBlou> manuel_: the bugs of releasenotes of 9.10 were from RC version, now they are fixed
[11:33] <iceroot> manuel_: have a look at bugzilla/launchpad
[11:33] <om26er> !910
[11:33] <om26er> !karmic
[11:33] <BlouBlou> om26er: the command is !karmic
[11:34] <Lewis> ninel: i just put the LiveCD in, and then what? Will it give me the choice to resize the partition?
[11:34] <iceroot> !botabuse | om26er
[11:34] <manuel_> are there any major bugs atm?
[11:34] <ninel> Lewis: nope not as simple as that
[11:34] <iceroot> manuel_: have a look at bugzilla/launchpad
[11:34] <bening> hgk
[11:34] <Lewis> ninel: how complicated is it then? :/
[11:35] <om26er> iceroot: i wanted the release notes and while typeing 9.10 the dot missed
[11:35] <BlouBlou> manuel_: no, bugs will be fixing with normal updates, right now there aren't official bugs
[11:35] <ninel> Lewis: hold on Let me find you a solution
[11:35] <leven> om26er: i have now tried the "alternative" boot cd, med into a usb-drive, and it gets to the stage where it demands a cd, and as i don't have one it refuses to go on?
[11:35] <manuel_> ok
[11:35] <manuel_> how many gigs would be an online update?
[11:35] <BlouBlou> manuel_: about 700 mbs
[11:36] <ninel> leven: I have just upgraded using the 'alternate' CD it still takes huge amount of files from net
[11:36] <om26er> manuel_: samba related but is fixed in karmic
[11:36] <leven> ninel: i got a fast connection so net is no problem
[11:36] <BlouBlou> om26er: yesterday was samba's update
[11:36] <leven> ninel: problem is i don't have a cd
[11:36] <om26er> i was telling that
[11:37] <ninel> leven: then you can upgrade from directly the .iso file
[11:37] <ninel> which I just have accomplished a bit ago
[11:37] <manuel_> ok
[11:37] <jetienne_> please fix the notification system
[11:37] <leven> ninel: i'm doing a clean install
[11:37] <BlouBlou> jetienne_: what's up with it?
[11:37] <leven> nothing to upgrade?
[11:37] <manuel_> does a fully encrypted system works in karmic for example the boot passphrase etc
[11:37] <jetienne_> BlouBlou: i got one but it is blicking and in the middle of the screen
[11:37] <BlouBlou> I recommend install ubuntu 9.10 without updating, for get ext4 and grub2 by default
[11:38] <BlouBlou> jetienne_: I haven't got this problem
[11:38] <m4rtin> manuel_: I did a clean install with a new encrypted FS and it worked great
[11:38] <jetienne_> BlouBlou: even a modal ala vista would be better, as you can get rid of it
[11:38] <jetienne_> BlouBlou: lucky you :)
[11:38] <manuel_> cause this is my work pc and it sould not be reinstalled
[11:38] <BlouBlou> jetienne_: have you got any screenshot?
[11:38] <manuel_> no i have to update 904 encrypted
[11:39] <jetienne_> BlouBlou: i can make you but you wont get the blink
[11:39] <jetienne_> BlouBlou: where can i upload it ?
[11:39] <bening> dmesg what is that?
[11:39] <BlouBlou> jetienne_: try to imageshack
[11:39] <manuel_> is lists system msg
[11:40] <jetienne_> BlouBlou: hmm and i have to wait for a notification to happen... how can i make one ?
[11:40] <teolicy> Hi. I'm unable to setup Google Talk accounts in Empathy; both my accounts read 'network error'. I couldn't find something obvious in Google (i.e., "Empathy and Google Talk are broken in 9.10"); anyone here knows what gives?
[11:40] <BlouBlou> jetienne_: wait a second :)
[11:40] <leven> om26er: what were you saying about the cd?
[11:40] <O__o> hey guys what is moblin?
[11:41] <ninel> http://www.techsupportforum.com/alternative-computing/linux-support/239249-resizing-linux-ubuntu-partition.html for you @ jetienne_
[11:41] <om26er> leven: tell me again
[11:41] <O__o> how does it compare to ubuntu netbook remix?
[11:41] <BlouBlou> jetienne_: have you got empathy or pidgin? wait to contact, and when it connects, it will appear notification, then do screenshot
[11:41] <O__o> is there such a thing call ubuntu moblin remix?
[11:41] <om26er> O__o: ubuntu moblin remix when completed will be better than the original moblin and i can bet on that
[11:41] <matteo1990> Hi all, i am trying to record sounds on Jaunty from MIC. I can hear my voice in the speakers but if i try to use "Record sound" nothing is recorded
[11:41] <SlimG> e/wc
[11:42] <om26er> O__o: moblin don't support a big number of apps to be installed can install gstreamer easily. and many many others app but in UMR you can do it all
[11:42] <petsounds> O__o : i try ubuntu moblin remix on my eee pc 1000HE, too buggy. so i reinstalling with UNR :)
[11:42] <om26er> can't
[11:43] <O__o> can u install other linux app in moblin?
[11:43] <O__o> it looks quite nice on youtube
[11:43] <om26er> petsounds: its developers preview
[11:43] <leven> om26er: netbook with no cd, trying usb-install, got it booted using a old 8.04 disc, but 9.04 and 9.10 drives and discs freeze right after the boot menu. and the alternative cd as usb-drive fails when it won't continue without a cd drive
[11:43] <matteo1990> Hi all, i am trying to record sounds on Jaunty from MIC. I can hear my voice in the speakers but if i try to use "Record sound" nothing is recorded
[11:43] <petsounds> om26er : no doubt ;)
[11:44] <sobersabre> Is there a way to dump my current xorg setup into arbitrary xorg.conf file ?
[11:44] <om26er> O__o: yes you might but UMR has got the big ubuntu software pakage database
[11:44] <sobersabre> (I currently do not have xorg.conf)
[11:44] <om26er> leven:  i don't know what to sa
[11:45] <Dhuski> Does anyone here actually need help or am I wasting my time?
[11:45] <O__o> is moblin other linux distro?
[11:45] <leven> om26er: think it is safe to install the 8.04 that works, and then upgrade?
[11:45] <O__o> or is it some kind of desktop environment?
[11:46] <sobersabre> leven: upgrade is always more prone to problems.
[11:46] <om26er> leven: sorry again cuz i never upgraded(just clean installed) and never tried 8.04
[11:46] <leven> sobersabre: thats why i havn't tried it yet..
[11:47] <sobersabre> leven: haven't tried what yet ? an upgrade ?
[11:47] <O__o> the new wave in 9.10 looks quite nice
[11:47] <leaf-sheep> O__o: Thick fonts in App/Places/System? ;o
[11:47] <sobersabre> I upgrade from 5.10->6.04->6.10->7.10->8.10
[11:48] <O__o> leaf-sheep, what do u mean?
[11:48] <om26er> leven: i am only 4months into ubuntu
[11:48] <leven> om26er: haha ok =)
[11:48] <om26er> leven: mean i installed it in june
[11:48] <teolicy> Hi. Is it possible to combine contacts in Empathy? (same person from two different IM services?)
[11:48] <om26er> teolicy: no
[11:49] <teolicy> om26er, that's terrible. Is it possible in Pidgin?
[11:49] <sobersabre> teolicy: I think so... but only the grouping thing.
[11:49] <om26er> teolicy: although you can make different groups
[11:49] <sobersabre> I think pidgin syncs group names to be the same on all accounts.
[11:49] <om26er> teolicy: same with pidgin
[11:49] <leaf-sheep> O__o: I'll take a picture.
[11:50] <teolicy> sobersabre, om26er: What does that mean? Say I have a friend called Mike on MSN and ICQ, I create a group called "Mike"?
[11:50] <teolicy> (and put him there?)
[11:50] <om26er> teolicy: yes
[11:50] <teolicy> Ugh.
[11:50] <teolicy> Well, thanks anyway for the info.
[11:50] <om26er> teolicy: or you can remove him from one service
[11:50] <om26er> teolicy: or just block
[11:51] <om26er> teolicy: after he is the same person
[11:51] <teolicy> I switched to Ubuntu from OSX, where I used the IM client Adium. It had excellent contact combining feature, I really miss it now.
[11:51] <teolicy> I
[11:52] <teolicy> I'll survive though. Thanks again, see you later.
[11:52] <Pashka> does ubuntu have all the system calls like pthread and mmap?
[11:52] <teolicy> Pashka, probably, depends on what you mean by "all". pthread and mmap are definitely there.
[11:52] <nvme> has anyone been able to boot XBMC live from ISO with grub2 ?
[11:53] <sobersabre> teolicy: I don't exactly what you mean, but if you have several similar usernames from diff. services, they appear in pidgin as several users.
[11:53] <leaf-sheep> O__o: http://tinyurl.com/ykuuuch
[11:53] <ohmy> hi
[11:53] <Pashka> I want OS with at least enough calls to create my own os
[11:53] <krummlauf> i cant get vlc to interact with my usb-speakers, what am i doing wrong?
[11:53] <sobersabre> Pashka: ubuntu is a gnu/linux system like all.
[11:53] <leaf-sheep> O__o: That is the only thing I hate about New_Wave theme.
[11:53] <om26er> teolicy: request it at upstream for empathy might get fixed in 2.6.30
[11:53] <ohmy> i'm looking for a dockbar for kubuntu karmic, anyone have an idea ?
[11:54] <sobersabre> Pashka: are you a troll ? :) you want an OS to create you own OS ?
[11:54] <om26er> 2.30
[11:54] <diekrise> hi, someone knows how to permanently disable wlan? (to reduce power consumption)
[11:54] <teolicy> om26er, thanks, I might do that.
[11:54] <ninel> ohmy use  awn-manager avant navigation panel
[11:54] <florian_> bye bye
[11:54] <O__o> leaf-sheep, but it is a big improvement from the ugly orange
[11:54] <sobersabre> diekrise: via software or what ?
[11:54] <teolicy> Anyway, gotta go. Later.
[11:54] <Pashka> well I want to take a class CSC 159 we will be creating OS there and I would like to use my laptop at work where I dont have internet
[11:55] <diekrise> sobersabre, how else?
[11:55] <blue-frog> how to transfer empathy accounts from one computer to another?
[11:55] <O__o> leaf-sheep, the only thing i dont like in new wave is the faded orange color in the highlight menu
[11:55] <napster> Hi all
[11:55] <Clay1> Hey guys
[11:55] <om26er> !hi | Clay1
[11:55] <O__o> leaf-sheep, the solid orange look better than the faded orange
[11:55] <ohmy> ninel, thank you
[11:55] <sobersabre> Pashka: I think you have your CSC 159 (whatever that means) guiding lines. and they probably suggest you what to use and what NOT to use.
[11:55] <leaf-sheep> leaf-sheep: Oh you're talking about New Wave. I checked my theme. Apparently I was talking about Dust. :o
[11:55] <stratus_> Hello all. : )
[11:55] <jjh> hey all. I'm am wanting to make usb boot disk for installing ubuntu netbook remix, but I can't find a link to the .img files only .iso files - and I can't figure out how to use .iso -> usb on a Mac
[11:56] <jjh> any suggestions?
[11:56] <stratus_> I just installed my new visiontek radeon 2600 HD Pro!
[11:56] <leaf-sheep> !usb > jjh
[11:56] <sobersabre> if you mean a CS course at a university, then simply contact their course staff.
[11:56] <Pashka> they will suggest to use Tal Net witch requires internet
[11:56] <om26er> !usb | jjh
[11:56] <stratus_> I also just installed Ubuntu 9.10!
[11:56] <sobersabre> diekrise: I think this thing is driver dependant i.e. some cards would allow this and some won't.
[11:56] <om26er> jjh: w8 leteme find it for you
[11:56] <Clay1> I need some help with my video card. Ubuntu wont let me install anything 3d or extra my desktop graphics. I think its a driver issue but im not sure where/how to download and install a driver for unbuntu, can i get some help?
[11:56] <stratus_>  Without the closed Ati driver the display is choppy; with the closed Ati driver the display is just unusable.
[11:56] <sobersabre> I think the IBM Thinkpads allow this with intel ipw2200 cards.
[11:57] <stratus_> Is there anything I can try to fix this?
[11:57] <jjh> ubottu: thanks, but that doesn't have any info for Mac's
[11:57] <diekrise> sobersabre, i can right click
[11:57] <``Cube> hi im trying to compile gfire and it needs openssl-dev. i found out that on ubuntu its called libssl-dev, which i already have installed, but when trying to AUTOGEN.SH the gfire svn, it gives me following line: src/Makefile.am:72: variable `SSL_LIBS' not defined
[11:57] <sobersabre> diekrise: right click who ?
[11:57] <diekrise> sobersabre, i can right click on networkmanager and disable it. But is not stored over reboot
[11:57] <Pashka> stratus, do you know how to make threads print one after another using mutex
[11:57] <om26er> jjh: http://releases.ubuntu.com/karmic/ubuntu-9.10-netbook-remix-i386.iso
[11:58] <jjh> Thanks om26er. I've got the iso but I can't figure out how to get that on a USB stick on a Mac
[11:58] <``Cube> hi im trying to compile gfire and it needs openssl-dev. i found out that on ubuntu its called libssl-dev, which i already have▒│
[11:58] <sobersabre> diekrise: I don't know if this is fixable "out of the box".
[11:58] <``Cube> │installed, but when trying to AUTOGEN.SH the gfire svn, it gives me following line: src/Makefile.am:72: variable `SSL_LIBS' not defined
[11:58] <om26er> jjh: and from 9.10 ubuntu netbook remix comes on an iso file
[11:58] <stratus_> Pashka; nope. ; )
[11:58] <jjh> Instructions page is for Windows or Linux
[11:58] <stratus_> Pashka; I'm a quick learn though...
[11:58] <jjh> om26er - Got that, but how do I put an iso onto a USB stick on a Mac
[11:59] <Pashka> : )
[11:59] <jjh> That's my question
[11:59] <Clay1> can anyone see my msgs? i don't think this client is working.
[11:59] <diekrise> sobersabre, thanks anyway. I already thought that there is no easy way. So ill try to blacklist some modules.
[11:59] <om26er> jjh: w8
[11:59] <Pashka> thats what I want to learn stratus
[11:59] <jjh> Clay1: can see your msg
[11:59] <``Cube> hi im trying to compile gfire and it needs openssl-dev. i found out that on ubuntu its called libssl-dev, which i already have▒│
[11:59] <``Cube> │installed, but when trying to AUTOGEN.SH the gfire svn, it gives me following line: src/Makefile.am:72: variable `SSL_LIBS' not defined
[11:59] <legend2440> Clay1: open  system>administration>hardware drivers     any drivers in there you can enable?
[11:59] <sobersabre> diekrise: you may want to add a special file to be included in the blacklist.
[11:59] <sobersabre> and you may manipulate that file with a script...
[11:59] <stratus_> Pashka; I can get back to you on that.
[11:59] <sobersabre> I think there's an "include" directive there.
[11:59] <Clay1> sec legend, and thx for helping
[11:59] <Pashka> is there a pipeline in threads
[11:59] <om26er> jjh: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromImgFiles
[12:00] <O__o> why ubuntu is so obsess in the orange color??  or sometimes brownish orange?
[12:00] <diwic> Cube: that error is probably a fault in Makefile.am, a proper script would give you a better error message
[12:00] <Pashka> that would be nice stratus
[12:00] <om26er> jjh: scroll to the end of the page
[12:00] <aditu> what is the minimum hardware requrements for ubuntu ?
[12:00] <om26er> jjh: no but its for .img
[12:00] <sobersabre> is there anybody proficient with pulseaudio ?
[12:00] <O__o> can ubuntu hire some other better designer?
[12:00] <stratus_> Pashka; do get back to me though on my display woes -- fair trade.
[12:01] <``Cube> diwic: thanks
[12:01] <sobersabre> O__o: do you have something specific to say ?
[12:01] <sobersabre> :)
[12:01] <``Cube> O__o: whats wrong!?!? im a designer
[12:01] <Pashka> what are your woes? stratus?
[12:01] <Clay1> HM it seems my graphics card wasn't enabled, let me see if i can enable it and see if it works.  Ubuntu has got great designers, not liking a colour doesn't they're not good.
[12:01] <Dr_Willis> aditu:  depends on what you want to do. ive ran it on some very low end machines.
[12:01] <jjh> om26er: I've used those instructions previously - but I can't find a copy of a .img file for UMR Karmic
[12:01] <skysong> mean*
[12:01] <maelstrom> How do you rescue a frozen Ubuntu system where you can move the cursor but the system is unresponsive in every other way? This seems to happen to my laptop once or twice a week
[12:01] <jjh> om26er: only .iso
[12:01] <sobersabre> courpse: I think you both need a couple councelling....
[12:01] <diwic> sobersabre, not certain about pulseaudio, but shoot
[12:01] <courpse> sobersabre, So do i, :(
[12:02] <sobersabre> diwic: I have a conceptually problematic situation :)
[12:02] <sobersabre> diwic: do you know what is "Skype" application ?
[12:02] <stratus_> Pashka: I just installed an Vistiontek radeon 2600 HD Pro that doesn't work at all (choppy without the closed drivers; unusable with the closed drivers).
[12:02] <aditu> Dr_Willis i whant to use for a personal server
[12:02] <Dr_Willis> jjh:  I think they got rid of the img files for karmic.
[12:02] <O__o> i mean the new default theme in 9.10 is just plain ugly
[12:02] <petsounds> 0__o : " can ubuntu hire some other better designer? " try shiki-colors!
[12:02] <Dr_Willis> aditu:  a Pent 100 can work as a 'server' :)
[12:03] <sobersabre> O__o: what is ugly in your opinion, mr. O__o ?
[12:03] <diwic> sobersabre, haven't used it myself, but I remember some bugreports talking about using the beta with a pulseaudio backend...
[12:03] <stratus_> *Visiontek radeon 2600 HD pro.
[12:03] <O__o> the default in 9.04 is 10 times better
[12:03] <skysong> O__o: its not. But you can change it if you don't like it.
[12:03] <jjh> So does anyone know how I should make use of the iso files using a Mac
[12:03] <sobersabre> diwic: I didn't ask you that... :)
[12:03] <jjh> Dr_Willis: Thanks, that's what I'm figuring - but can't figure out how to use the iso file
[12:03] <O__o> the dark brown just look not right
[12:03] <skysong> jjh: burn it maybe?
[12:03] <sobersabre> I am asking if you know what is this application, and ~how it works~ from sound devices perspective.
[12:03] <Dr_Willis> jjh:  with unetbootin or the usb-startup-disk creator tool  i belive
[12:03] <courpse> How to set up postfix to send using php?
[12:03] <Dr_Willis> jjh:  or setup grub2 on a flash drive and make it boot the iso file
[12:03] <O__o> and the loading screen, the color look like washed...
[12:04] <jjh> Dr_Willis: problem is as far as I can tell unetbootin and usb-startup-disk creator are both Windows/Linux only
[12:04] <skysong> jjh: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/maciso
[12:04] <sobersabre> O__o: you are trolling, which is in itself ok... but do you actually have anything to say except the vague "I don't like brown" ?
[12:04] <Dr_Willis> jjh:  a live cd on  the machine can run the usb-startup-creator but thats may be back to where you started. :)
[12:04] <Clay1> legend2440, thanks for the driver graphic insight while it downloads and installs though maybe you could help me with this other issue? MY microphone isn't working on unbuntu but perfectly fine on windows. Ive checked for common mistakes like being mutated and whatnot but it seems to simply not recognize a microphone exists. I know its a broad margin for error but maybe you could help me here.
[12:05]  * Dr_Willis thinks the new ubuntu default colors should be Pink and Lilac.
[12:05] <stratus_> sobersabre; I don't think so...
[12:05]  * sobersabre isn't canonical employee, so I can be not 100% politically correct :)
[12:05] <O__o> its not just me, even my colleagues said so after i upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10
[12:05] <skysong> O__o: just change the colours!!!
[12:05] <Dr_Willis> So take the 20 sec it takes to change your theme.
[12:05] <jjh> skysong: Thanks for your help, but unfortunately those instructions will only let you burn to  cd, not usb
[12:05] <O__o> i change it to new wave
[12:05] <O__o> which is better
[12:06] <Dr_Willis> I got nice anime xsplash/gdm wallpaper also
[12:06] <stratus_> So is anyone else having any Radeon graphics card issues?
[12:06] <Clay1> i am stratus
[12:06] <O__o> i mean does ubuntu take a surrey before designing on the default color theme?
[12:06] <Clay1> HOwever legend just i think helped me out.
[12:06] <stratus_> Clay1; what kind?
[12:06] <skysong> jjh: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=598291
[12:06] <sobersabre> O__o: I have heard of this website gnome-looks or something. and they have a huge amount of visual additions you can install - GDM themes, bootsplash themes, Backgrounds, Icons, generally stuff.
[12:06] <nexsja> 'ello. I've got a small problem regarding sendmail and exim4. I'm trying to send mail from php, but it seems that the mails just get into the queue just stay there.
[12:06] <Clay1> Basically it wont let me use any 3d or high graphics.
[12:07] <O__o> sobersabre, i know that site
[12:07] <nexsja> I've even tried sendmail -q to force a queue run, but nothing happens
[12:07] <skysong> sobersabre: there's kde look as well as xfce-look
[12:07] <skysong> :s
[12:07] <osvaldo> hey guys i don t wanna use
[12:07]  * sobersabre hands O__o a poisoned troll cake....
[12:07] <stratus_> Clay1; is it choppy? Are you using the proprietary driver?
[12:07] <osvaldo> pidgen
[12:07] <maelstrom> What does it mean if my Ubuntu system freezes and is unresponsive to all input, including CTRL-ALT-F(1-7), but my mouse cursor still moves around? how do I fix this and/or prevent it? it happens once or twice a week
[12:07] <Clay1> And i was pretty sure it was because of drivers. GO to systems>administration>hardware drivers. And see if it gives you the option to activate your graphics driver.
[12:07] <nexsja> tried reconfiguring exim4, and i think it just got worse :<
[12:07] <albert__> Hi, UbuntuUsers!
[12:07] <O__o> but why ubuntu cant choose a better default color screen that is more appealing to the public?
[12:07] <osvaldo> kopete
[12:07] <falcokian> what the topic of today??
[12:07] <falcokian> can we whare it..
[12:07] <sobersabre> maelstrom: is it possible your hardware overheats ?
[12:08] <stratus_> Clay1; the problem is worst with the proprietary driver -- still bad without it.
[12:08] <osvaldo> do someone tell what comunicator i should use
[12:08] <Clay1> Reallyu
[12:08] <Clay1> HM
[12:08] <legend2440> Clay1: i havent used a Mic in a while but these are the instructions i used to get mine working with my audio card. anyway you can try these instructions if you want     http://paste.ubuntu.com/318544/
[12:08] <stratus_> Clay1: The option is there I just can't use it (it breaks my system).
[12:08] <osvaldo> and i need audio and video suport
[12:09] <sobersabre>  /ignore O__o
[12:09] <Clay1> Thx legend
[12:09] <sobersabre> oops.
[12:09] <nexsja> anybody? :<
[12:09] <JmZ> how can i start a screen detached and execute a command in it?
[12:09] <JmZ> for use in a cron
[12:09] <skysong> osvaldo: use pidgin, it supports all the wellknown protocols.. ive been using empathy in debian, works fine as well
[12:09] <Clay1> Yea i dunno stratus it seems unbuntu 9.10 is giving general driver issues
[12:09] <stratus_> Clay1; thanks.
[12:09] <valdu55> Hello. I want use two netwoks at same time, Vlc plays on Eth and internet is over Wlan
[12:10] <stratus_> Clay1; I actually installed 9.04 and the problems were exactly the same.
[12:10] <sobersabre> Clay1: does your card doesn't have any 3D drivers for linux ?
[12:10] <sobersabre> it should be listed in the drivers ATI provides.
[12:10] <osvaldo> too long to make login pidgen
[12:10] <JmZ> anyone?
[12:10] <sobersabre> or NOT listed.
[12:10] <JmZ> just need to start a detached screen and execute a command in it
[12:10] <nexsja> What is the proper way to configure exim4 so that it would send mails? :<
[12:10] <sobersabre> JmZ: what do you mean "start a screen detached" ?
[12:10] <sobersabre> detached from what ?
[12:10] <Clay1> I don't think so sober. But im downloding the proprietary right now. I have a radeo 3100.
[12:10] <JmZ> sobersabre: i mean create a screen (the screen command) but detached, do not attach to it
[12:11] <Clay1> radeon*
[12:11] <JmZ> so it can be used in a cron job
[12:11] <sobersabre> nexsja: there's a package called exim4-config something..
[12:11] <Dr_Willis> 'screen'  is a must learn tool :)
[12:11] <sobersabre> so you need to dpkg-reconfigure that package.
[12:11] <JmZ> screen -dm somename opens the screen
[12:11] <njin> How can i format a floppy ??
[12:11] <osvaldo> i need another w suports audio and video
[12:11] <JmZ> but i cant seem to execute a command on it
[12:11] <Pashka> stratus you  can try add fglrx to WHITELIST in /usr/bin/compiz see if that solves it
[12:11] <nexsja> sobersabre, yes, i'run ran it several times, tried the default configuration, still nothing :<
[12:12] <SnoopyDog> Hey everyone! tell me private, how to open chat? i don't know... :D
[12:12] <stratus_> Pashka; I could try. Does it not matter that I have all the graphics toys turned off?
[12:13] <stratus_> Pashka; set to "Normal" is System -> Prefrences -> Appearence?
[12:13] <SnoopyDog> dell puhutko suomee?
[12:13] <sobersabre> JmZ: what is your motivation of creating a detached screen ?
[12:13] <harry_> anyone tell me how to speed up ubuntu 9.10 and the internet
[12:13] <Pashka> dont know
[12:14] <njin> someone can tell me how to format a floppy
[12:14] <sobersabre> I mean ... if you don't need it NOW (i.e. you're not going to use it now) WHY the hell to run it ?
[12:14] <SnoopyDog> PUHUUKO TÄÄL KUKAAN SUOMEE!!! :D
[12:14] <jauntyjoe0> someone tell me what a computer is?
[12:14] <sobersabre> JmZ: are you there ?
[12:14] <diwic> njin: http://linux.die.net/man/8/floppy
[12:14] <JmZ> sobersabre: yes
[12:14] <sobersabre> so, can you answer my Q. ?
[12:14] <JmZ> i want to automatically create two screens when logging in
[12:15] <JmZ> one which contains an SSH session
[12:15] <nexsja> Can anybody here help me with sendmail, please?
[12:15] <jauntyjoe0> should i go for 8 bit or 16 bit when buying a computer?
[12:15] <Flannel> jauntyjoe0: Please stay ontopic.
[12:15] <BlouBlou> !ask | nexsja
[12:15] <Clay1> Aff legend2440, my issue i exactly this that guide tells me to go there and test my "mic" thing ect. But it dosen't have a mic thing. ITs like the system isn't recognizing it.
[12:15] <sobersabre> JmZ: I see it like this: if I want to run something in a screen, I can understand. but, why to do this without running anything... no idea.
[12:15] <nexsja> BlouBlou, i've asked 3 times, still no answer. This is shorter >_<
[12:15] <Asad-away> I don't have the CD of ubuntu anymore, but while trying to install ndiswrapper, it's asking for it. Can't it just download it from the web? Synaptic, i.e. ?
[12:16] <sobersabre> JmZ: and you probably can do this with expect script.
[12:16] <sobersabre> JmZ: do you know what "expect" program is ?
[12:16] <JmZ> sobersabre: what do you mean "why to do this without running anything"?
[12:16] <Flannel> Asad-away: Yeah, just disable the CD source from your repositories and it won't ask for it
[12:16] <JmZ> i clearly said i wanted to run something
[12:16] <sobersabre> try expect.
[12:16] <Pashka> stratus grep "WHITELIST" /usr/bin/compiz and change it to look like something like this WHITELIST="nvidia intel ati radeon i810 fglrx"
[12:16] <Asad-away> where to do that Flannel ?
[12:16] <Clay1> is there somewhay i can download a driver for my sound card?
[12:16] <sobersabre> it allows you to spill things into stdin based on what you get on stdout/err.
[12:17] <Asad-away> oh nm .. ty Fl
[12:17] <Flannel> Asad-away: Software sources/Properites (under System > Administration)
[12:17] <Clay1> some way*
[12:17] <nexsja> I'm trying to send mail from php using the standart mail() function. The mail doesn't get delivered. It just winds up in a queue line. I've tried reconfiguring exim4 -> unsuccessful. Can anybody help with that?
[12:17] <sobersabre> and you will be able to send the commands like: "ssh bla@bla; <Ctl-A><Ctl-D>"
[12:17] <JmZ> sobersabre: i only want to run a command in a screen, it seems a little excessive to use expect
[12:18] <JmZ> surely theres just a screen command
[12:18] <sobersabre> JmZ: I am not sure.... :)
[12:18] <frogzoo> nexsja: does it need a mail server running on the local machine?
[12:18] <Flannel> JmZ: Yes, of course that's possible.
[12:18] <sobersabre> nexsja: if you don't want it to send anything... why run it ?
[12:18] <nexsja> frogzoo, i don't think so. It uses the sendmail function with -t -i parameters, if i remember correctly
[12:18] <stratus_> Pashka; before I do that I really need to know it anything compiz is running. If I'm going to try to run the proprietary driver again I want to make sure it's worth breaking my system again.
[12:18] <oCean_> JmZ: /usr/bin/screen -dmS <sessionname> <command_to_run> i think
[12:18] <ohmy> is it possible to install catalyst 9.10 on karmic with radeon ati card (non HD) ?
[12:19] <SnoopyDog> tell me someone how i can open another chat room... allways there isn't anybody when i go some chatroom please help me
[12:19] <nexsja> sobersabre, that's the point. i want to send mail with it. I need php to send mail with it.
[12:19] <diwic> SnoopyDog, what irc client are you using?
[12:19] <sobersabre> nexsja: what exactly do you need to do ?
[12:19] <sumaiya> hi
[12:19] <stratus_> Pashka; OK I'll try it.
[12:19] <sobersabre> sumaiya: hi.
[12:19] <sumaiya> I have this issue ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[12:19] <frogzoo> stupid question - if a #.deb is X megs, will it take much more than X megs to install?
[12:20] <stratus_> Pashka; be right back... ; )
[12:20] <sobersabre> sumaiya: this usually means your mysql server is DEAD...
[12:20] <diwic> frogzoo, short answer: It depends
[12:20] <oCean_> JmZ: -dm causing screen to start detached and ignore $sty env (as manual says: "usual for system startup scripts")
[12:20] <sumaiya> but what to do
[12:20] <nexsja> sobersabre, i need to send mails from php using mail() command witch uses 'sendmail -t- -i)
[12:20] <haenet5> nyantai_f
[12:20] <sobersabre> sumaiya: to run a mysql server...
[12:20] <frogzoo> diwic: they're gzipped, no?
[12:20] <SnoopyDog> diwic i don't know... i've never before use IRC... :D
[12:20] <Pashka> k
[12:20] <diwic> frogzoo, yes, tar.gz
[12:21] <sumaiya> Mysql already run
[12:21] <frogzoo> ah, kk, thx
[12:21] <sobersabre> nexsja: ok, so why don't you use the "smarthost" approach ?
[12:21] <sumaiya> sobersabre, Mysql already run
[12:21] <sobersabre> I mean exim4 conf. profile.
[12:21] <nexsja> sobersabre, should i use default settings for that too?
[12:21] <diwic> SnoopyDog, what program are you chatting in?
[12:21] <sobersabre> sumaiya: how sure are you? can you connect to it yourself ?
[12:21] <sobersabre> nexsja: I think so.
[12:21] <SnoopyDog> diwic this is smuxi
[12:22] <sumaiya> sobersabre, in synpatic all the packeges are marked as installed
[12:22] <sobersabre> smarthost listens only on localhost, and sends things as client...
[12:22] <stratus_> Pashka; that's already in /usr/bin/compiz...
[12:22] <sobersabre> sumaiya: do ALL the programs you have installed RUN now ?
[12:22] <stratus_> Pashka; mine also includes radeonhd
[12:23] <Pashka> hmm
[12:23] <diwic> SnoopyDog, I can assume it uses standard commands then, try /join #channel-name
[12:23] <sobersabre> sumaiya: ... so ?
[12:23] <sobersabre> :)
[12:23] <sumaiya> sobersabre, ok
[12:23] <SnoopyDog> diwic okay. i'll try
[12:23] <diwic> SnoopyDog, to get a list of rooms, that usually in the menues somewhere
[12:24] <sobersabre> sumaiya: do you understand the diff between "installed" and "configured + running" ?
[12:24] <Pashka> stratus BTW, also post the output of the following two commands (just to sanity check)cgrep -i "driver" /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:24] <Pashka> lsmod | grep fglrx
[12:24] <Pashka> Edit: and
[12:24] <Pashka> glxinfo | grep rendering
[12:24] <FloodBot1> Pashka: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:24] <sumaiya> sobersabre, yes
[12:24] <sumaiya> i m trying
[12:24] <SnoopyDog> diwic no... there isn't anybody else, but there should be about many many people
[12:24] <courpse> Anyone tried running postfix with php5 on karmic and have problems with the php mail(); function?
[12:24] <oCean_> sumaiya: check if you're mysql server i running: use this command in terminal: "sudo service mysql status"
[12:24] <nexsja> sobersabre, done that. Still the mails won't send. I've got something in exim's maillog, don't quite understand it
[12:25] <``Cube> when trying to configure gfire, i get the following error http://pastebin.com/m358ecb47
[12:25] <sumaiya> oCean_, ok
[12:25] <diwic> SnoopyDog, what channel?
[12:25] <stratus_> Pashka; I have no xorg.conf...
[12:26] <sumaiya> oCean_, its giving Mysql is stopped
[12:26] <sobersabre> nexsja: what are you planning to send the emails via ?
[12:26] <SnoopyDog> like #irc-galleria
[12:26] <fungo> hi,is there a tool to limit the bandwidth
[12:26] <oCean_> sumaiya: then connecting would be a problem yes
[12:26] <tomodaci1> fungo: yes several
[12:26] <SnoopyDog> diwic like #irc-galleria
[12:26] <sobersabre> sumaiya: are you on ubuntu 9.10 or earlier ?
[12:26] <nexsja> sobersabre, right now i have exim, though a friend of mine just suggested to use postfix, so installing that
[12:26] <stratus_> fglrx is not loaded
[12:26] <stratus_> Pashka; fglrx is not loaded...
[12:26] <oCean_> sumaiya: now use "sudo service mysql start"
[12:26] <sumaiya> oCean_, sobersabre , but when i start the service it gives fail
[12:26] <sobersabre> nexsja: can you answer the question ?
[12:27] <``Cube> when trying to configure gfire, i get the following error http://pastebin.com/m358ecb47
[12:27] <Pashka> why dont you load it
[12:27] <sobersabre> sumaiya: when it fails, it should create a log message in /var/log/syslog.
[12:27] <jonah> hey guys can someone please help me out. my system won't boot as it gets stuck at initramfs... basically i have raid striped which karmic installs on ok then on reboot it's stuck at initramfs, i have read there is a bug where you need to do dpkg-reconfigure mdadm after installation but i can't run this from initramfs prompt as it doesn't recognise the command...
[12:27] <stratus_> Pashka; direct rendering yes
[12:27] <nexsja> sobersabre, i thought i did. Or i misunderstood you then
[12:27] <fungo> for example
[12:27] <sumaiya> sobersabre, let me check
[12:27] <sobersabre> nexsja: let's start from the start: you want the mail() function to send emails from your computer, to where ?
[12:28] <sobersabre> to the world ?
[12:28] <nexsja> sobersabre, yes
[12:28] <stratus_> Pashka: I never loaded fglrx by hand; I just activate it in closed drivers.
[12:28] <sobersabre> ok. for this you say you don't want to listen on eth0 (or whatever), but send as client for another MTA.
[12:28] <sumaiya> sobersabre, its saying Nov 14 17:57:17 sumaiya /etc/init.d/mysql[8278]: Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' exists!
[12:28] <sumaiya> sobersabre, what does it mean?
[12:29]  * courpse is having problems with MTA as well, :(
[12:29] <sobersabre> this means you need to tell exim4 what is that another MTA (i.e. SMTP server), and what username to use (and probably authenticate)
[12:29] <stratus_> Pashka; no I don't have an xorg.conf file right now either; I had to delete it to get X to start.
[12:29] <courpse> postfix and php5 mail(); hate each other.
[12:29] <sobersabre> nexsja: are you with me ?
[12:29] <nexsja> sobersabre, yes. I've answered "yes" :)
[12:29] <sumaiya> sobersabre, SMTP message for me?
[12:30] <stratus_> Pashka; I can use the display preferences to write an xorg.conf but if I do that before I load the proprietary driver it breaks.
[12:30] <stratus_> Pashka; sound like fun?
[12:30] <sobersabre> sumaiya: no.
[12:30] <stratus_> : )
[12:30] <Pashka> no
[12:30] <Pashka> not fun
[12:30] <java> exit
[12:30] <sobersabre> nexsja: so did you do all this ?
[12:31] <sobersabre> nexsja: something like this: http://www.glorat.net/2008/11/ubuntu-804-hardy-gmail-smarthost-setup-with-exim4.html
[12:31] <sobersabre> sumaiya: now I am with you.
[12:31] <sobersabre> :)
[12:31] <stratus_> Pashka; brb.
[12:31] <Jo1> hellow, I'm trying to make my wake on lan work but my router just doesn't allow any wol packages true It's a WRT54GCv3. My computer is correctly configured, and does support WOL. Can anyone help me?
[12:31] <oCean_> sumaiya: When using the command "sudo service mysql start", what is the error you get? Besides just "fail" ?
[12:32] <laoer> hi
[12:32] <nexsja> sobersabre, sorry, i've lost you with no highlight that time. Got it, i need to set up an MTA whatever that is... i'll read the link, thanks :)
[12:32] <sumaiya> sobersabre, yes
[12:32] <jonah> at initramfs i get alert "/dev/mapper/nvidia_dcfadeef2 does not exist"
[12:33] <skysong> anyone can recommend a good terminal with transparency and mouse support?
[12:33] <sobersabre> sumaiya: so, the error you got says you don't have a socket file. can you check this yourself ?
[12:33] <sumaiya> oCean_, yes dear i get Fail
[12:33] <sobersabre> skysong: all the terminals except the plain xterm support transparency.
[12:33] <sumaiya> sobersabre, how
[12:33] <sumaiya> ?
[12:33] <sobersabre> sumaiya: do you have an open terminal ?
[12:33] <skysong> sobersabre: aterm has mouse support?
[12:33] <sobersabre> skysong: what do you mean by "
[12:34] <sobersabre> mouse support" ?
[12:34] <sobersabre> any X application has "mouse support".
[12:34] <sumaiya> sobersabre, yes
[12:34] <Jo1> hellow, I'm trying to make my wake on lan work but my router just doesn't allow any wol packages true It's a WRT54GCv3. My computer is correctly configured, and does support WOL. Can anyone help me?
[12:34] <skysong> try running mc in a term, in rxvt i can't click on the available texts
[12:34] <sobersabre> sumaiya: well, run : cd <where the socket is supposed to be>
[12:34] <skysong> copy, del etc
[12:34] <sobersabre> sumaiya: and run "ls" command.
[12:35] <sobersabre> do you have a folder /var/run/mysqld ?
[12:35] <skysong> leave it, ill play with rhapsody using shortcuts then
[12:35] <rashed2020> Would symlinking something in /etc/skel make it symlink to the same location for all created users if it was an absolute path?
[12:35] <tarelerulz> What is rhapsody like ? never used it
[12:35] <sumaiya> sobersabre, no mysqld
[12:35] <sumaiya> found under /var/run
[12:36] <sobersabre> so, under /var/run you don't have a folder "mysqld". right ?
[12:36] <sumaiya> sobersabre, no mysqld found under /var/run/
[12:36] <sumaiya> sobersabre, yes
[12:36] <SnoopyDog> HOW I CAN CLOSE THE CHATROOM WITH SMUXI? HELP ME
[12:36] <oCean_> SnoopyDog: don't shout.

[12:37] <om26er> !shout | SnoopyDog
[12:37] <xnixan> hi, how to convert swf files to a video format like mpeg, avi etc?
[12:37] <sobersabre> in this case you can run: dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-<version here I don't know which>
[12:37] <SnoopyDog> i'm sorry... :)
[12:37] <sobersabre> it will ask you a couple of questions. ok, sumaiya ?
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> xnixan: winff
[12:37] <sumaiya> sobersabre, what to do :
[12:37] <stratus_> Back...
[12:37] <sobersabre> sumaiya: in this case you can run: dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-<version here I don't know which>
[12:38] <sobersabre> I think it's 5.0 or 5.1
[12:38] <sumaiya> sobersabre, ok
[12:38] <SnoopyDog> but how i can close chatroom...? :S
[12:38] <sobersabre> sumaiya: you may even do this:
[12:38] <lstarnes> SnoopyDog: is it an irc client?
[12:38] <sobersabre> dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server
[12:38] <sobersabre> :)
[12:38] <sobersabre> this should ask you things like root's mysql pass, and create the folders needed to run for mysql...
[12:39] <sobersabre> sumaiya: does it work ?
[12:39] <SnoopyDog> smuxi is program. like xchat or mIRC
[12:39] <Pashka> alright guys you have a good night I need to go get some sleep

[12:39] <Pr0n> oi cunts
[12:39] <jackobian> hello
[12:40] <stratus_> This is like some sort of balancing act and any move I make will break the system...
[12:40] <SnoopyDog> lstarnes it worked thanx
[12:40] <sobersabre> sumaiya: was it you who installed ubuntu or is it somebody else ?
[12:40] <stratus_> Pashka; Hope so. : )
[12:40] <Pashka> yeah
[12:41] <sumaiya> sobersabre, sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5-1 says Package `mysql-server-5-1' is not installed and no info is available.
[12:41] <sumaiya> Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files,
[12:41] <sumaiya> and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents.
[12:41] <sumaiya> /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: mysql-server-5-1 is not installed

[12:44] <legend2440> Clay1: no problem
[12:45] <napster> I can't delete files in my usb drive....Can anybody help me...?
[12:45] <sumaiya> sobersabre, only mysql server or with version too
[12:45] <sobersabre> no versions...
[12:45] <stratus_> napster; have you tried emptying the trashcan before you un mount it?
[12:45] <tjingboem> where can i see how big the partition of my filesystem is?
[12:46] <frogzoo> df -h
[12:46] <hb045> have you tried throwing the drive out of the window napster?
[12:46] <sumaiya> sobersabre, ya run but
[12:46] <napster> stratus_: no
[12:46] <sumaiya> sobersabre, refer message http://paste.ubuntu.com/318567/
[12:47] <stratus_> hb045; have you tried throwing the window at a computer?
[12:47] <gdiz> I have a question for you all.  I am trying to special mount (i.e. /dev/sdb1 /mnt vfat defaults,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 in my fstab).  Now, I thought the sdb1 would refer to the partition at static port: sdb.  But it seems like that drive is switching to sdc of sdd.   All those files are read-only
[12:48] <sobersabre> sumaiya: ok ?
[12:48] <om26er> napster: can you format that flash
[12:48] <sumaiya> sobersabre, its runnning

[12:49] <jugglerbry> i tried installing 9.10 onto my cousins pc using wubi, but for the first time ever i've run into a problem.  after rebooting it gives an error about the kernel not being found, then gives a prompt. anyone have any ideas ?
[12:49] <om26er> napster: mkfs.vfat /dev/xxx
[12:50] <diwic> gdiz: use UUID to specify the drive
[12:50] <napster> om26er: Just a second
[12:50] <oCean_> gdiz: use "sudo blkid" to find UUIDs, use that in fstab
[12:50] <hb045> chmodding the files on the drive doesn't work i think napster?
[12:51] <napster> hb045: Yes. It doesn't...   :(
[12:51] <sobersabre> sumaiya: are you alive ?
[12:51] <stratus_> napster; is there some sort of error when you try to delete the files?
[12:51] <sumaiya> sobersabre, yes
[12:52] <om26er> napster: sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb -I
[12:52] <om26er> or just sdb1
[12:52] <C-S-B> I'm creating a minimal ubuntu install in Vbox for no reason at all!
[12:52] <hb045> i know rebooting sometimes resolves issues when files cannot be deleted, could also be that your partition table is corrupted
[12:52] <sobersabre> sumaiya: did it complete with success ?
[12:52] <sumaiya> sobersabre, its asking me for postfix configuration!
[12:52] <napster> om26er: I think it worked.
[12:52] <napster> stratus_: just a second
[12:52] <sobersabre> sumaiya: well, do a postfix configuration...
[12:53] <sobersabre> what exactly is it asking ?
[12:53] <napster> om26er: It worked. ty m8
[12:53] <napster> :
[12:53] <napster> :)
[12:53] <sumaiya> sobersabre, postfix configuartion for mail
[12:53] <napster> stratus_: mkfs.vfat worked for me.
[12:53] <gdiz> oCean_ or diwic, I'm relatively new to ubuntu.  could you walk me through that?  I'm not exactly sure what that means.
[12:53] <sobersabre> sumaiya: I don't understand this Q. what is the question aptitude is asking ?
[12:53] <Clay1> is there a cool guide to personalize your ubuntu, like how to properly set up themes and those clock th gadgets things?
[12:53] <napster> stratus_: It was "read-only filesystem" error
[12:54] <sumaiya> sobersabre, done but mysql user and password requored
[12:54] <napster> stratus_: om26er hb045 Tank you to all :D
[12:54] <yassine> hi are there no jikes package for karmic koala ? aptitude can't find any here
[12:54] <sumaiya> sobersabre, *required
[12:54] <om26er> napster: np man
[12:54] <diwic> gdiz: do you know how to open a terminal?
[12:55] <om26er> yassine: jikes?
[12:55] <sumaiya> sobersabre, how to give because it does not ask me for any user and password
[12:55] <gdiz> diwic, yeah I've gotten that far
[12:55] <oCean_> gdiz: well, if you take a look at your current /etc/fstab file, you might see something like http://paste.ubuntu.com/318579/
[12:55] <sobersabre> sumaiya: if I remember correctly it is supposed to ask for root mysql user's password. well, give it a password.
[12:55] <jongbergs> yassine: sudo apt-cache search jikes
[12:55] <sobersabre> sumaiya: 2 times.
[12:55] <sobersabre> it's a setup.
[12:55] <jongbergs> yassine: just to see if jikes is available from repos
[12:55] <sumaiya> sobersabre, but i dont have taht
[12:56] <marko-_-> !offtopioc
[12:56] <marko-_-> !offtopic
[12:56] <sobersabre> you are supposed to invent a password, and put it there 2 times.
[12:56] <om26er> yassine: its discontinued by ibm
[12:56] <sumaiya> sobersabre, ok
[12:56] <gdiz> oCean_, yeah I see UUID lines in there
[12:56] <yassine> jongbergs, jikes-classpath - clean room standard Java libraries - wrapper for jikes ; jikes-classpath: Depends: jikes but it is not installable
[12:56] <_Narc_> Hello, gurus of all kinds. I got a special tough problem for you. I'd be extremely grateful if someone could help me figure this out.
[12:56] <sobersabre> it's a special mysql's user, called "root", it's not the same as unix system root account.
[12:56] <oCean_> gdiz: the UUID thing is a unique identifier for that specific blockdevice. Use the uuid (and not the device name /dev/sdb1 to mount the same device at same mountpoint
[12:56] <napster> om26er: what was that -I option in mkfs.vfat command...?
[12:56] <yassine> om26er, yeah thats since years but hosted on sf.net
[12:57] <sobersabre> it's mysql's context.
[12:57] <sobersabre> sumaiya: ok ?
[12:57] <om26er> napster: over ride
[12:57] <napster> om26er: means..?
[12:57] <oCean_> gdiz: you can find the UUID of your /dev/sdb1 disk (and other partitions) by running the command "sudo blkid" in a terminal
[12:57] <om26er> napster: becasue sdb is not a prtition its whe whole drive
[12:57] <sumaiya> sobersabre, doing dear I was working on this from last 3 days
[12:57] <sumaiya> sobersabre, :):):)
[12:57] <jongbergs> yassine: try sudo apt-get install jikes-classpath
[12:57] <om26er> jongbergs: no candidate available
[12:58] <napster> om26er: got it. ty m8
[12:58] <jongbergs> yassine: why do you need jikes by the way?

[13:00] <Dr_Willis> napster:  ext2/3/4 = tune2fs
[13:01] <sobersabre> sumaiya: you're supposed to type in 2 times a password that you should invent.
[13:01] <sobersabre> ok ?
[13:01] <napster> Dr_Willis: fat32..?
[13:01] <_Narc_> I have a recurring problem with my routers and bittorrent...I'm now trying to know if it's Ubuntu's fault or my ISP's. It's not as simple as it seems.

[13:05] <sobersabre> basically all you needed to do is apt-get install mysql-server, but it involved some input from you. good luck.
[13:06] <_Narc_> om26er: I will, thank you. I only to know how to prove it. They're very stubborn.
[13:06] <sobersabre> welcome.
[13:06] <om26er> K3rl0u4rn: sudo jockey-gtk and try to install driver
[13:07] <jonah> hi is there no one that can help me please with this current raid bug?
[13:08] <om26er> _Narc_: i get used to get disconnected from gmail before when my network ping was high  i complained them they fixed it. i never faced that on windows so kinda same
[13:09] <_Narc_> om26er: I see. Could it be something going wrong in the way Ubuntu handles network packets, or something like that ?
[13:10] <om26er> _Narc_: might be as i never faced that in win
[13:10] <om26er> _Narc_: and both empathy and pidgin got me disconnected but not now
[13:10] <K3rl0u4rn> om26er: seems that it worked... should I use sudo whatever to launch other "system" apps ? (shared folders, login screens etc...) ?
[13:10] <om26er> K3rl0u4rn: so great na?
[13:11] <Valentina> How do I close down a ssh connection where I'm logged into a server as user without logging out my user at the server?
[13:11] <_Narc_> om26er: So, maybe it's the way Ubuntu's handling packets but apparently the ISP can do something about it
[13:11] <kunal_> hello all, which package should i install for php5 simplexml ??
[13:11] <om26er> K3rl0u4rn: when you open system app it should ask you for password on its own
[13:11] <Valentina> I just wnat to stop ssh, not log out the user at the server.
[13:11] <K3rl0u4rn> om26er: I know, but it doesn't
[13:11] <Valentina> *want
[13:11] <om26er> _Narc_: yes. did work for me
[13:12] <om26er> K3rl0u4rn: sudo apt-get --reinstall install gksu
[13:12] <K3rl0u4rn> om26er: when I sudo gdmsetup, I can click the unlock button but everything stays greyed, and the unlock button itself becomes grey :)
[13:12] <om26er> K3rl0u4rn: using karmic fully? fully updated?
[13:12] <_Narc_> om26er: Last questiom, thanks again for your help. What did you tell them ? Because I can already hear them saying that's because I'm not using Windows, bla bla...
[13:13] <K3rl0u4rn> om26er: fresh install this morning + updates + install of software I usually use
[13:13] <astor> sera
[13:13] <jongbergs> Valentina: can you be specific?
[13:14] <K3rl0u4rn> om26er: However, I haven't logged in with xfce, I use openbox, maybe that can be a reason but I doubt
[13:14] <K3rl0u4rn> om26er: acording to what I read on google, this is probably related to policykit
[13:14] <om26er> _Narc_: i told them that my line was coming from far away and now there is 'D' near my home so give me a line from here
[13:14] <K3rl0u4rn> om26er: reinstalling gksu did not change anything :(
[13:14] <kunal_> any idea which package should i install for php5 simplexml ???
[13:15] <jongbergs> Valentina: if you want to ssh, at the server computer run sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop
[13:16] <jongbergs> Valentina: if you want to stop ssh, at the server computer run sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop
[13:16] <epinky> kunal_: sudo apt-get search simplexml
[13:16] <yassine> jongbergs, sorry for the delay i need jikes since its required by liferay dev environment
[13:16] <craigbass1976> I've got mod_rewrite enabled in apache.  Something went haywire though when I upgraded from hardy to Jaunty, and it doesn't work.  Did this happen to anyone else?
[13:17] <Sqyber> could somebody help me to restore grub2? (if it's possible )
[13:17] <jongbergs> yassine: does installing jikes-classpath solves the problem?
[13:18] <jongbergs> !grub2 | Sqyber
[13:19] <tarelerulz> Can you get chrome for Linux via repository ?
[13:19] <om26er> tarelerulz: yes
[13:19] <om26er> tarelerulz: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chromium-daily
[13:20] <om26er> tarelerulz: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
[13:20] <tarelerulz> So what is chromium?
[13:20] <om26er> tarelerulz: chromium is google chrome
[13:21] <Valentina> jongbergs: I use ssh to control my server. I log in using ssh username@ip and so on. But when I want to close down my desktop computer I still want the server to be up and running. The only thing I want is to close the ssh connection so that I can turn down my desktop or do other things than being connected to my server. How do I stop using the ssh connection that I created using ssh username... Just stop ssh-ing,
[13:21] <haven489> lotec: you there?
[13:21] <blackshell> there is some problem with my recording
[13:21] <Valentina> jongbergs: I have red about "close" or "exit but don't know what to use when I don't want to control the server anymore.
[13:22] <om26er> blackshell: sound is very noisy?
[13:22] <jrib> Valentina: use screen
[13:22] <jrib> !screen > Valentina
[13:22] <grawity> Valentina: Simply type either "exit" or "logout". Or even press Ctrl-D.
[13:22] <diablo75> Valentina, using the "exit" command will disconnect you from your server and it will remain up, listening for future ssh connections
[13:22] <blackshell> om26er can i pm?
[13:23] <Valentina> jrib: Ok, I have to look into it some day.
[13:23] <blackshell> the record control gets mute even if i unmute
[13:23] <blackshell> so i cant record
[13:23] <grawity> Valentina: The server will always stay up (unless you run "shutdown" of course)
[13:23] <haven489> is there anyone in here that had sucess with installing ubuntu on the XO?
[13:23] <Valentina> grawity: Ok, but I want log out as user from my server then, like I do running log out at my desktop?
[13:23] <tarelerulz> If chromium is googl's chrome why have a different name ?
[13:23] <jrib> Valentina: I'm assuming you are running some sort of application and do not wish for it to terminate when you log out.  If that's the case, then just use screen
[13:23] <jongbergs> Valentina: i don't see anything wrong with "exit" command..it's just that you stop the current connection but the server is still ALIVE.
[13:24] <blackshell> why isnt anyone replying?
[13:24] <grawity> tarelerulz: Chromium is the development version, I guess...
[13:24] <Valentina> jrib: Well, I only run cron jobs.
[13:24] <coz_> tarelerulz,  if you install   chromium it will install a game  not google chrom
[13:24] <anon560> mmkay. I just installed wubi
[13:24] <jrib> Valentina: then I don't understand your question
[13:24] <anon560> with the newest ubuntu distro
[13:24] <coz_> tarelerulz,  at least with sudo apt-get install
[13:24] <Dr_Willis> package name is chromium-browser i recall
[13:24] <plustax> is anyone available for PM support?
[13:24] <diablo75> Valentina:  what do you want your server to do when you disconnect?
[13:24] <plustax> Im new to linux
[13:24] <grawity> Valentina: If you kill your ssh connection - no matter what way, "exit" or "logout" or whatever - it will only kill that one connection.
[13:24] <jongbergs> blackshell: what's your query?
[13:25] <grawity> plustax: Just ask the question here. If someone knows, he'll reply.
[13:25] <coz_> plustax,  waht is the issue?
[13:25] <om26er> plustax: yes
[13:25] <plustax> grawity I have more questions than I can even think of.
[13:25] <blackshell> jongbergs: the record control gets mute even if i unmute
[13:25] <jeffmr> plustax, i am
[13:25] <haven489> is there anyone who installed ubuntu on the XO sucessfuly? i need just a smudge of help...
[13:25] <blackshell> jongbergs ;so i cant record
[13:25] <Valentina> Wel, my question is very simple actually. I just wnat to stop using the ssh for a couple of hours and shutdown my desktop but I don't really know how to do that without "damaging" the server or something. I guess the exit is the answer of my question.
[13:25] <Valentina> What is the difference between exit and close then?
[13:26] <grawity> Valentina: Only one: "close" is not a real command.
[13:26] <coz_> the problem with PM support is that  others cant'  correct mistakes  and  also cannot benefit from listening in
[13:26] <haven489> !XO
[13:26] <tarelerulz> I have version of chrome on here ,but its unstalble sometimes and I just wanted something I can update

[13:26] <BlouBlou> !botabuse > haven489
[13:26] <blackshell> the record control gets mute even if i unmute
[13:26] <Valentina> grawity: Ok, well, I'll use exit then. Thanks answering my simple question. Just wanted to know that it didn't close down my server in some way.
[13:26] <Clay1> ALl those gadgets like clock and calendar ect. WHats the best program to use for those?
[13:26] <kane77> can anyone help me with installing hugs? I get this error: libhugs-openal-bundled: Depends: libopenal0a which is a virtual package.
[13:26] <jongbergs> blackshell: have you tried logging out and log back again.
[13:26] <grawity> Valentina: Unix and its derivatives (Linux, BSD, and so on) have been designed from start to allow many users to connect.
[13:27] <blackshell> jongbergs :yes
[13:27] <haven489> coz_: not XD XO, read right, im trying to get some help but being ingnored by all...
[13:27] <kane77> Clay1, screenlets maybe
[13:27] <diablo75> Valentina:  your server will remain ON, unless you tell it to shutdown.  Simple as that
[13:27] <grawity> Valentina: If you just disconnect (no matter what way), that will never damage the server anyhow.
[13:27] <coz_> haven489,  XD   OR XO  i still dont know what that is :)
[13:27] <ohmy> how can i see the log of messages i've sent on this chan today please ?
[13:27] <jrib> !logs | ohmy
[13:27] <haven489> bazhang: you there?
[13:28] <Valentina> grawity: Yes, I know,. Will it be any obvious problem letting ssh listening för connections? I mean, I still want to connect to my server from almost anywhare using my laptop.
[13:28] <bazhang> haven489, hi
[13:28] <coz_> ohmy,  are you running xchat?
[13:28] <jongbergs> Valentina: there's no reason to be afraid of, just follow what grawity and diablo75 suggests..
[13:28] <Valentina> grawity: Ok, good to know.
[13:28] <haven489> bazhang: do you know anything about the XO laptop? im trying to get ubuntu on there, but with no avail...
[13:28] <coz_> ohmy,  also if you are running xchat you can set it to save the logs
[13:28] <caraconan> Hi. I've got a bluetooth usb adapter working on a ubuntu+gnome machine, but I can't on a Debian+fluxbox one. Can someone point me of what I would 'copy' from one to another?

[13:29] <grawity> snuffy47: Only the file's owner can change that file's permission.
[13:29] <grawity> snuffy47: And I guess /etc/auto.cifs is owned by root.
[13:29] <diwic> Clay1: System -> Administration -> Synaptic
[13:29] <grawity> snuffy47: Which means, you need to become the 'root' user temporarily -- just add "sudo" before your chmod command.
[13:29] <blackshell> is anyone going to help me or not?
[13:29] <snuffy47> okay but if I change it to me will it still work as I want it too
[13:29] <jrib> !helpme | blackshell
[13:30] <snuffy47> I am root user
[13:30] <diablo75> Valentina:  The whole purpose of a server is to listen for requests.  They could be requests for telnet on port 23, http on port 80, ssh requests on 22, vnc requests on 5500 or 5900, and really anything else you would call a "service" that is to be hosted by the server for clients to connect to at any time.  That is it's job.

[13:30] <grawity> snuffy47: What you pasted ("smiths@smiths-laptop1:~$ chmod 755") tells me otherwise.

[13:42] <the-clasp> Mind me asking a short question about ubuntu netbook edition?
[13:42] <paspalhao> dimdime
[13:42] <bazhang> http://eclecti.cc/olpc/ubuntu-mobile-on-an-olpc-xo here is one haven489
[13:42] <diwic> rumbold: sorry, try sudo dhclient instead
[13:42] <jongbergs> rumbold: have you been leased with ip address from dhcp server?
[13:42] <jongbergs> rumbold: verify it with ifconfig
[13:43] <longnb_nd> i beginning use ubuntu
[13:43] <bazhang> http://www.olpcnews.com/software/operating_system/how_to_ubuntu_on_xo_laptop.html and another haven489
[13:43] <Valentina> diablo75: Yeah, I know it's the server's job to listen for requests. But I don't want anyon to hack my server so therefore I was a little bit worried about ssh listening for connections.
[13:43] <rumbold> the network works now, what does it mean to verify it with ifconfig?
[13:44] <haven489> bazhang: thanks for the help and the URL's you are a very helpful and resourceful person.
[13:44] <warriorforgod> !ifconfig
[13:44] <LetsGo67> Diablo75 thank you for your help.
[13:44] <haven489> by all
[13:44] <jongbergs> rumbold: yeah, that's it..i mean the command ifconfig let's you know what's your ip address
[13:44] <diablo75> Valentina:  If you're worried about hackers, setup a strong password that can't be guessed
[13:44] <Psinetic> jrib, could you please elaborate?
[13:44] <jrib> Valentina: or use ssh keys
[13:44] <diablo75> letsgo67:  you're welcome
[13:45] <Valentina> diablo75: Already done, I'm using a 8+ password generated by Ubuntu apg software.
[13:45] <LetsGo67> Diablo75 Yes.  :)  Can't I use command line to check?
[13:45] <jrib> Psinetic: not really.  dump your memory somewhere and search for it.  memdump and grep I guess.  There's probably a smarter way, this is just a suggestion
[13:45] <Valentina> jrib: Yeah, another thing to learn. I'll but it will take some time, I've lot of other things to do too, unfortunately.
[13:45] <snuffy47> gravity: http://paste.ubuntu.com/318611/ I think i need to change the owner to smiths
[13:45] <jongbergs> Valentina: you can also configure ssh to listen to specific ip address for added security
[13:45] <diablo75> letsgo67:  I'm sure there's an command that would show you what you need to see but I don't know what it is...  Sorry.
[13:46] <Psinetic> jrib ..um....well, thanks for the help, but it's not helpful if i have no idea what you're saying to do. i'll go look elsewhere. thanks though! :)
[13:46] <Valentina> jongbergs: Ok, that may be a good one too.
[13:46] <snuffy47> man it seems everythink I do needs some sort of permission changed
[13:46] <grawity> snuffy47: No, you just need to learn file permissions.
[13:46] <sskk> What's the simplest possible way to receive an e-mail on a domain for which I have no e-mail server setup? I basically need to receive one e-mail on the domain in order to setup my permanent e-mail server properly. Any ideas? (I have no experience in postfix, so I'm thinking it's a big deal setting that up for receiving the single e-mail?)
[13:46] <snuffy47> gravity: lol tring
[13:46] <jongbergs> !ssh | Valentina
[13:46] <jrib> Psinetic: googling the commands I told you or read about what they do would probably help
[13:46] <diwic> aLeSD: when does the setting revert itself?
[13:47] <grawity> snuffy47: Eh. I'm going to be killed for this, but just use "sudo -s" and do what you need to do. Then type 'exit' to go back to your user.
[13:47] <aegaeh> hello, how can I change the group of every single file within a folder without effecting the user? 'chown user.group *' is what I would usually do, but the users are different and I only need to change the group.
[13:47] <snuffy47> gravity: u are not the first person to tell me that.  but it shouldnt be that difficult
[13:47] <diablo75> Valentina:  If you do tell ssh to filter based on the clients IP address, remember that it is subject to change on you without notice from your ISP or just by connecting from different locations.
[13:47] <grawity> sskk: Postfix is quite simple. Especially in Debian/Ubuntu.
[13:48] <grawity> sskk: Just install it, choose "stand-alone server", and it should be done.
[13:48] <mgv2> how can i run a check for why ubuntu doesnt load if it doesnt load???
[13:48] <snuffy47> gravity: what does that do
[13:48] <grawity> sskk: Mail is usually delivered to /var/mail/$USER
[13:48] <Valentina> diablo75: Yes, I know. I use dyndns to connect to my server usually.
[13:48] <bgc> Hi, having strange issues in Karmic with network connections, can anyone help?
[13:48] <grawity> snuffy47: What does _what_ do?
[13:48] <Valentina> diablo75: My server also has got dynamic ip address.
[13:48] <aLeSD> diwic: on reboot
[13:48] <snuffy47> gravity: sudo -s
[13:48] <sskk> grawity: Ok - I'll take your word and dig into it. Thanks
[13:49] <LetsGo67> Diablo75, thanks regardless, have a good day!
[13:49] <diablo75> Valentina:  I wouldn't filter by IP if I were you then because you intend to be able to have access to your server no matter where you are.
[13:49] <snuffy47> gravity: I thought that being I could use the sudo command that smiths was the main admin user
[13:49] <grawity> snuffy47: 'sudo' does run the command as root.
[13:49] <OpenSourcedNick> Hello, I have a really old graphics card and it's really slowing down my ubuntu [especially when I surf the web with any browser (firefox, epiphany, opera)], is there a way to tune the graphics down so my ubuntu would be faster? cause right now it's a pain..
[13:50] <grawity> snuffy47: However, the >>/etc/auto.master part is snipped off by your shell, it is not passed to sudo.
[13:50] <Valentina> diablo75: Exactly. I want to log in independent of location.
[13:50] <diablo75> opensourcenick:  you can try to go into System>Preferences>Appearence and then the Effects tab and turn off the eye candy.
[13:50] <snuffy47> gravity: why should I not use sudo s-
[13:50] <Valentina> Well, I have to leave. Thanks helping me put today! You'tr very friendly. Thanks again.
[13:50] <grawity> snuffy47: I didn't say you shouldn't
[13:50] <Valentina> *out
[13:50] <diablo75> Valentina:  I'd say you've already got it setup just right then.
[13:50] <diwic> aLeSD: perhaps you can add an "amixer set ... " command in your .bashrc
[13:51] <grawity> snuffy47: AND LEARN NICK-COMPLETION, ffs.
[13:51] <snuffy47> gravity: is there a better way to make this work
[13:51] <bgc> Hi, I would be very grateful for some help on network issues in Karmic (due to upgrade)! Everything worked in Jaunty but stopped working in Karmic. Wireless and Wired show they're connected, I can ping google, but cannot access anything else. w3m shows "opening socket..." message before hanging.
[13:51] <asdqwe> hello, how can I change the group of every single file within a folder without effecting the user? 'chown user.group *' is what I would usually do, but the users are different and I only need to change the group.
[13:51] <thedancingdeer> how do i copy my /home/user preserving all the permissions? i've been trying to do it on live karmic but when i see the properties, it always shows live user as the owner! please help!
[13:51] <aLeSD> diwic: ok I will try
[13:51] <Valentina> diablo75: Yes, exept for the ssh keys maybe. But it's not that big problem writing the password, I think.
[13:51] <snuffy47> gravity: what is nick completion and why are you yelling at me
[13:51] <grawity> snuffy47: See my PM about that one
[13:51] <halden> asdqwe: try chgrp
[13:51] <Valentina> Have to leave, bye.
[13:52] <rashed2020> How do I force kill something?
[13:52] <rashed2020> killall name and kill pid aren't working
[13:52] <Anorien> grawity: how does one use nick completion on pidgin?
[13:52] <grawity> rashed2020: Add -9 to the kill command... such as killall -9 name or kill -9 pid
[13:52] <snuffy47> grawity, sorry
[13:52] <asdqwe> halden: same as 'chgrp group *' ?
[13:52] <grawity> Anorien: Same way as in any other client -- type the first few letters, press Tab.
[13:53] <halden> asdqwe: yes
[13:53] <rashed2020> grawity: Nope.
[13:53] <gdiz> hey, is there away to get the cp command to create subsequent folders.  i.e. cp file /dest/newfolder/file

[13:53] <gdiz> got it, thanks
[13:53] <grawity> rashed2020: Is the process owned by you? If not, add 'sudo'.
[13:53] <rashed2020> I did.
[13:53] <jugglerbry> rashed2020:sometimes my firefox closes but it doesnt kill the process, so I end up going into System/Administration then services, locate the one to kill and kill it there
[13:53] <Anorien> ah i see, that gray line in the window was confusing me, grawity lol
[13:53] <Anorien> thanks for the tip, grawity
[13:53] <OpenSourcedNick> I have an old graphics card and it's slowing down my ubuntu [especially when I surf the web], is there a way to tune the graphics down so my ubuntu would be faster?
[13:54] <grawity> rashed2020: If 'sudo kill -9 pid' does not kill a process, there can be only two explanations: a) the process is a zombie - already dead, the system is just waiting for its parent process to notie.
[13:54] <bgc> Hi, I would be very grateful for some help on network issues in Karmic (due to upgrade)! Everything worked in Jaunty but stopped working in Karmic. Wireless and Wired show they're connected, I can ping google, but cannot access anything else. w3m shows "opening socket..." message before hanging. Any help really appreciated!!!
[13:54] <grawity> rashed2020: b) the process is stuck in "uninterruptible sleep" - usually waiting for a file read/write to finish.
[13:54] <grawity> rashed2020: 'ps u <pid>' should tell -- look for "D" or "Z" in the STAT column.
[13:54] <rashed2020> grawity: Anything I can do? I don't think it's dead because it's processor usage is fluctuating between 97% and 100%/
[13:54] <jugglerbry> anyone know why when I quit FireFox it doesnt always kill the process ?  I have to manually kill it before I can restart FF
[13:54] <Anorien> OpenSourcedNick: i'd be interested in that too, same problem here, old and slow :)
[13:54] <Clay1> IM having issues with my mic, ubuntu wont recognize it. Maybe my sound card is lacking a driver?
[13:55] <grawity> rashed2020: ps u <pid>, paste the line here.
[13:55] <thedancingdeer> i tried copying  my /home using cp -arp and rsync but it still doesn't preserve the permissions! i want to change my /home partition for a fresh install!
[13:55] <OpenSourcedNick> Anorien, I'm using gnome so at least I know it's not eating up the RAM like KDE... but when I fire up a browser [any browser], the processor gets to 100%

[13:56] <sskk> grawity: Postfix was indeed simple - thank you for the push.
[13:56] <rashed2020> jugglerbry: try sudo killall firefox
[13:56] <grawity> rashed2020: Processes whose names are in [brackets] are actually kernel threads - you cannot kill them.

[13:56] <rashed2020> grawity: So I have to reboot? Cuz this is killing my desktop.
[13:57] <Clay1> how can i get my sound card's driver?
[13:57] <grawity> rashed2020: I guess so.
[13:57] <jugglerbry> Rashed2020: thanks for that, but it seems to be an intermittent thing.  sometime when i close ff all is well, but other times, i have to kill the process before i can restart
[13:57] <Anorien> OpenSourcedNick: did you turn off visual effects as someone here said earlier?
[13:57] <rashed2020> grawity: Alright, thanks.
[13:57] <OpenSourcedNick> Anorien, If I wasn't playing some music and watching some videos every once in a while I would have it completely none-gui... my programming is far mor eimportant that the other uses
[13:57] <OpenSourcedNick> hmm... how do I check for that? though I think It is turned off...?
[13:57] <rashed2020> jugglerbry: Same here. I just ALT+F2 then type xkill and click on the firefox window. That works much better.
[13:57] <Symmetria> hrm, any recommendations on a really really really fast hardware raid controller (preferably that can take a ton of sata disks, like 15 channels)
[13:57] <snuffy47> grawity, back to sudo -s what does it actually do
[13:57] <jugglerbry> ok will do thanks.  you think it's a 9.10 bug maybe ?
[13:58] <Symmetria> scsi disks are 2 damn expensive for a download staging server, and I need a LOT of space, but I need it *FAST*
[13:58] <Anorien> OpenSourcedNick: system-prefferences-appearance, tab visual effects
[13:58] <rashed2020> jugglerbry: Nah, I've been doing that since 8.04
[13:58] <jugglerbry> ah no, the firefox window does close, but the background process doesnt end
[13:58] <grawity> snuffy47: 'sudo -s' runs a copy of your shell, but with root privileges. Just like 'sudo chmod', for example, runs 'chmod' as root.

[13:58] <OpenSourcedNick> Anorien, it's off
[13:59] <grawity> thedancingdeer: Are you rsyncing as root?
[13:59] <plustax_> Hey guys. I cannot enable desktop effects. you have nvidia 9300M and driver version si 185
[13:59] <snuffy47> I see it changed that.  but shouldnt I just chon the file to smiths
[13:59] <grawity> thedancingdeer: In Unix, only "root" can change a file's owner.
[13:59] <plustax_> I HAVE
[13:59] <grawity> thedancingdeer: So if you are not root, rsync can preserve most permissions - but not the file owners.
[13:59] <snuffy47> grawity, I see it changed that.  but shouldnt I just chon the file to smiths
[13:59] <grawity> snuffy47: What file is that?
[14:00] <jugglerbry> plustax:have you tried system/administration/hardware drivers to see if there a driver available ?
[14:00] <snuffy47> grawity, echo "/cifs /etc/auto.cifs --timeout=60" >>/etc/auto.master
[14:01] <grawity> snuffy47: /etc/auto.master? I think you should keep its ownership as it is... it's only a one time change anyway, I guess.
[14:01] <thedancingdeer> grawity: so how do i achieve it? i want to format my /home partition cuz the drive has loads of errors and goes fsck everytime it boots!
[14:01] <snuffy47> grawity, looks like auto.cifs and auto.master
[14:01] <grawity> thedancingdeer: Uh, run rsync as root.
[14:01] <snuffy47> grawity, okay
[14:01] <grawity> thedancingdeer: Or, I would just archive the entire thing with tar -cvzf

[14:15] <``Cube> there is the pidgin libdir located?
[14:16] <om26er> Rizwan: i think the correct channel is #wine
[14:16] <jrib> ``Cube: why?
[14:16] <aaron11> laoer, If you keep on trolling I will kick you
[14:16] <jrib> Rizwan: #winehq for support with wine, but see ubottu's appdb first
[14:16] <``Cube> jrib: trying to compile a plugin for it and it doesnt seem to be able to find it automatically
[14:16] <jrib> ``Cube: you just need to install the -dev package for pidgin (or libpurple)
[14:16] <laoer> I think there is a foolish crying here
[14:17] <``Cube> jrib: hmm lemme see if i dont have that already
[14:17] <IdleOne> laoer: Please try to understand. This channel if for support related topics only. if you wish to chat join #ubuntu-offtopic

[14:18] <aaron11> 嗨！请加入Ubuntu的中国夏奈尔！我们将禁止你，如果你一直曳。
[14:18] <grawity> davidboy, IdleOne: I thought 'startx' requires ~/.xinitrc to be present.
[14:18] <bgc> Hi, I would be very grateful for some help on network issues in Karmic (due to upgrade)! Everything worked in Jaunty but stopped working in Karmic. Wireless and Wired show they're connected, I can ping google, but cannot access anything else. w3m shows "opening socket..." message before hanging. Any help really appreciated!!!
[14:18] <petsounds> epinky : ok i just check it with gedit /etc/usplash.conf i think i have the right res for x and y. and one thing i forget to mentions that sometimes when Grub loading process, it doesn't give me option to grub list..
[14:18] <``Cube> jrib: ok this is the pastebin of the end of the ./configure output http://pastebin.com/m358ecb47

[14:19] <dotz> Hi. I need an one-click solution for a bugtracker (apt-get something, that's already configured and useable). Any ideas what should I use?
[14:19] <tin> ok

[14:19] <aaron11> laoer, What is your problem
[14:19] <epinky> petsounds: I would strongly suggest in your case that you just get rid of "splash" to finish that problem
[14:20] <IdleOne> trijntje: glad to hear it
[14:20] <grawity> IdleOne: Eh, Ubuntu probably has a system-wide one.
[14:20] <jrib> ``Cube: http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/Scripting%20and%20Plugins#HowdoIcompileapluginUNIX-likeplatforms
[14:20] <``Cube> jrib: which is like xfire for pidgin

[14:21] <manolo__> Hi to all. I nothice I have 2 "trash" directories under my home folder. One is named .Trash-0 and the other .Trash-1000 Are both in use? thenks
[14:21] <jrib> ``Cube: basically, you ignore the error, just run make (not make install) and copy the .so yourself to ~/.purple/plugins
[14:21] <c0p3rn1c> I'm running ubuntu with gnome, dual screen: left(laptop screen) + right(big screen), but for some reason after changing from single screen to dual screen I have one task bar on my upper left screen and one on the down right screen :(
[14:21] <grawity> manolo__: The number is the user ID -- so if it's your homedir, .Trash-0 can be deleted as it does not belong to you.
[14:21] <``Cube> jrib: aah alright. let me try
[14:22] <c0p3rn1c> (using nvidia-settings)
[14:22] <petsounds> epinky : frankly, i don't really care with usplash or any other looks. so tell me how to get rid of it, will you? :D
[14:22] <grawity> manolo__: Actually, Ubuntu uses neither now, I think...
[14:22] <coz_> manio,   I have none in home but let me check

[14:25] <``Cube> jrib: see i already have it installed, and it works perfectly with pidgin, but doesnt work at all with finch. i found on the web thought that this bug has been fixed in revision 220 something. so i assume its not the ready-to-download .deb files on the website, but in the latest cod
[14:25] <bgc> I tried asking, I guess noone knows the answer... I guess I'll just reinstall jaunty and skip karmic...
[14:25] <IdleOne> om26er: not sure how to help him to be honest. he mentioned the driver was installed I assume that means also working

[14:25] <ratseyesoup> Hi All - I'm using 9.10 and can't change desktops with my center scroll wheel anymore-could this be an ubuntu or compiz settings thing or a hardware proublem
[14:25] <jrib> ``Cube: I see
[14:26] <fcuk112> ratseyesoup: they disabled the mouse-wheel to change desktops.
[14:26] <``Cube> jrib: yeah. see i compiled it now, where can i find the .so file?
[14:26] <SingAlong> I shared one of my windows drives and tried to access it via my ubuntu machine but I'm not able to access it. I'm able to access the shared documents folder though. its asking me for some username and password to access the shared drive.
[14:26] <jrib> ``Cube: i didn't even know about gfire until just now, look in the directory you typed make I suppose
[14:26] <nightMare32> #ubuntu-ph

[14:26] <ratseyesoup> fcuk112: ty -wy did they do that
[14:27] <SingAlong> anyone?
[14:27] <fcuk112> ratseyesoup: no idea, i guess a lot of peeps were triggering it by accident.

[14:31] <IdleOne> SingAlong: I am guessing here but I think you want to allow guest access to that drive.

[14:31] <SingAlong> IdleOne: what is there anything specially called guest access?

[14:35] <ace_> leaf-sheep, ok, that worked to get into recover
[14:35] <penguin42> naftilos76: Does 1 or 4 show up in /proc/cpuinfo ? Which version of ubuntu and what does uname -a say?
[14:35] <naftilos76> They all show up!
[14:35] <ace_> jrib, what do I do in recovery?
[14:35] <naftilos76> Does this mean that they are all used?
[14:36] <jrib> ace_: does the keyboard work?
[14:36] <penguin42> naftilos76: What does uname -a  say and what makes you think only one is used?
[14:36] <Clay1> is it just me or does every theme use human icon?
[14:36] <astrojp> coz_: Is the part 'Add the GPG keys.' necessary? I was always curious about that, what is that for?

[14:37] <jrib> ace_: can you do *anything*?
[14:37] <penguin42> naftilos76: OK, so you have an SMP kernel, if all 4 show up in /proc/cpuinfo then all sounds good
[14:37] <ace_> jrib, no
[14:37] <Clay1> I suck at this leaf, i have no idea what to do. lol
[14:37] <grawity> manolo__: No, why?
[14:37] <jrib> ace_: interesting.  Weird that it worked on the live cd
[14:37] <Clay1> I download them some work others not..
[14:37] <ace_> jrib, I know.. Is there anything I could try?
[14:38] <jrib> ace_: did you run "check the cd for defects" before installing?
[14:38] <c0p3rn1c> n/m fixed it
[14:38] <leaf-sheep> Clay1: System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Select a theme (Look for Customize).
[14:38] <ace_> jrib, no.. I will do it now
[14:38] <naftilos76> penguin42 - The thing is that i never saw the cpu level on the task bar graphs to go higher than 25%!
[14:38] <laoer> >:-)
[14:38] <Clay1> THanks man, but hey leaf-sheep. WHy don't you help me with a far more troublesome and pressing problem ive been trying to get solved here all day.
[14:38] <naftilos76> penguin42 - I'm just wondering!
[14:38] <Doorman352> Anyone know how to get punctuation to work in konversation? I need apostrophes...
[14:38] <penguin42> naftilos76: hmm, ok lets try something to make it eat one CPUs worth of CPU - md5sum /dev/zero in a shell somewhere
[14:39] <c0p3rn1c> pff I can't playback 1080p hd movies in ubuntu, there too slow :(
[14:39] <leaf-sheep> Clay1: I don't know your issues. Ask away.
[14:39] <Clay1> UM, my microphone isn't being recognized by ubuntu and i have no idea why. Its as if there are no sound setting.. or no driver.
[14:39] <Daverocks> Doorman352: that's a strange problem
[14:39] <c0p3rn1c> at least not without using vdpau
[14:39] <coz_> astrojp,  its not necessary no...but it does insure  that the pacakges may be safe
[14:39] <Clay1> I've managed to work around everything thus far. But i can't get my mic to work.
[14:39] <IdleOne> astrojp: the GPG key is a way of confirming who/where the package is from provided you trust the issuer.
[14:40] <Doorman352> Daverocks: No apostrohes or quotation marks work
[14:40] <the_dark_warrio> I've got an Intel 4 Series Graphics Controller, and Ubuntu have not recognized it. Any one can help me? Running glxinfo gives me a segfault, after plenty error messages
[14:40] <leaf-sheep> Clay1: I never use a mic so I wouldn't know. Sorry. ;\
[14:40] <jolaren> [ 1001.650099] hda-intel: Too big adjustment 32
[14:40] <naftilos76> penguin42 - nope! one cpu goes 100% and the other three are just wandering around 10-20%!
[14:41] <Clay1> well, any clue on how i could find and dl/install my sound driver?
[14:41] <Daverocks> Doorman352: can you type them in the text box and they don't send, or can you not type them at all
[14:41] <penguin42> naftilos76: That's OK, it will just use 1 CPUs worth, now start another md5sum /dev/zero in another terminal
[14:41] <Doorman352> Daverocks: As I type them the either dont appear of the stop the next few characters.
[14:42] <Doorman352> I cant spell/type today either
[14:42] <Daverocks> Doorman352: heh, can you type apostrophes in other kde applications?
[14:43] <K3rl0u4rn> is it possible on karmic to get slim instead of gdm ?
[14:43] <Doorman352> Daverocks: Actually running Ubuntu, konverstaion was the easies irc client for me. Tried in text editor and they seem to work.
[14:43] <bart_> Hi all
[14:43] <leaf-sheep> Clay1: Run "sudo lshw -c sound" to get some information on sound devices.
[14:44] <ace_> jrib, check finished no errors found
[14:44] <Doorman352> Daverocks: Thought maybe they were reserved for commands but found nothing about it in help.
[14:44] <jrib> ace_: I don't know what to tell you.  Doesn't really make sense.  You can try the alternate cd out of desperation if you wish
[14:44] <Daverocks> Doorman352: what about something like kwrite? your kde keyboard mappings might somehow be different
[14:45] <Shu> Insm0d
[14:45] <ace_> jrib, I may also try a USB keyboard and install updates. I just tried a USB mouse and it worked.. Go figure
[14:45] <bart_> Clay1, I also have soundproblems and when i run the lshw command it says *-multimedia UNCLAIMED
[14:45] <the_dark_warrio> Anyone having the same problems with Intel Integrated Graphics Controller, 4 Series?
[14:45] <naftilos76> penguin42 - thanks, you've got a point there! the second cpu started when i did the second md5sum! It seems that thet all work (when they are needed!)
[14:46] <the_dark_warrio> Ubuntu haven't recognized my hardware
[14:46] <Doorman352> Daverocks: I am running Ubuntu with the gnome interface, I just installed konversation, I have no other KDE apps.
[14:46] <Clay1> hm, leef-sheep here it says its a ati card but more specifically mentions its 64 bit and the ubuntu im on is 32 bit. Could that be the problem?

[14:47] <Daverocks> Doorman352: i don't know what installing kwrite pulls in on ubuntu but if it doesn't pull in much else then try installing it and typing in that
