[04:04] <meshuggah> YAY
[04:04] <kriscolt> jgruber, tried alsamixer, and hardware prefs to no avail...
[04:04] <rww> ...
[04:05] <humanbean>  /msg alis list *friendly*
[04:05] <jgruber> kriscolt: but do you see a sound device get added when you add the card or device?
[04:06] <kriscolt> the card came preinstalled into the box...
[04:06] <Freeaqingme_> Can I use a nvidia card together with an ati card? I dont have to drag windows from one card to another, but I would like to use them simultaneously
[04:06] <kriscolt> so there's no way to unplug it
[04:07] <kriscolt> no... i can disconnect the coax...
[04:07] <kriscolt> what's the command to see what's been plugged in and unplugged?
[04:07] <phichidev> #ubuntu-vn
[04:07] <jgruber> kriscolt: oh dear. If I were you I would look at /var/log/syslog for startup messages for the video device and then around that point for error messages about the audio device
[04:08] <kriscolt> i used to know a command... but it escapes me at the moment, that i used to us when i plugged in those little usb wifi dongles
[04:08] <kriscolt> ^^use
[04:08] <bucky> kriscolt, lsusb ?
[04:09] <kriscolt> hmm... that's it... that wouldn't work here though
[04:09] <kriscolt> lspci is the one i would probably need
[04:09] <jgruber> kriscolt: I don't know of a special command. you could use lspci for a capture board, but that will just tell you the board is installed, and you know that because you get video
[04:10] <ubnoob> anyone know how to open a .p7s file
[04:10] <kriscolt> this is true...
[04:10] <kriscolt> i get sound from every other application...
[04:10] <kriscolt> maybe it's just 'tvtime'
[04:10] <ActionParsnip> ubnoob: install p7zip-full and p7zip-rar and unp
[04:10] <kriscolt> do you know of another tv-capture app that i could try?
[04:10] <jgruber> kriscolt: you mean you get sound from the capture card from other applications
[04:10] <kriscolt> no
[04:10] <kriscolt> i mean i can play a wav file
[04:11] <bucky> kriscolt, maybe it has to do with pulseaudio if it's a sound problem
[04:11] <em> ActionParsnip: ahh. I wonder then if there's any way to just disable the trackpad while keeping the mouse. I really don't like the trackpad on this laptop since Ubuntu doesnt let me use the right click, so how can I use it without a right click?
[04:11] <jgruber> kriscolt: i've used vlc and mplayer with my 950Q
[04:11] <ActionParsnip> em: if you run:  lsmod    you may be able to see a module which runs the pad, then run:  sudo modprobe -r name    to disable it
[04:12] <ubnoob> ActionParsnip, thanks you guys are like family! I love ubuntu.
[04:12] <ActionParsnip> em: if its wrong or things misbehave then just reboot
[04:12] <jgruber> kriscolt: I've tested just the audio by using arecord from the alsa device my 950q adds and pipe it to aplay
[04:12] <ActionParsnip> ubnoob: i'm not sure it'll definately work, but it makes sense
[04:13] <kriscolt> jgruber, do i need any sort of additional plugin to have vlc work the way i want to or just apt-get install vlc
[04:13] <ubnoob> ActionParsnip: i'll be back to let you know
[04:13]  * ActionParsnip loves unp :)
[04:13] <akirre> list
[04:14] <em> ActionParsnip: and how do you undo a move like that?
[04:14] <em> ActionParsnip: in case I ever wanted to turn it back on?
[04:15] <jgruber> kriscolt: I didn't need a plugin, just vlc
[04:16] <kriscolt> jgruber, ok... i'm sort of there...
[04:16] <ActionParsnip> em: sudo modprobe name
[04:16] <kriscolt> but i'm not sure how to set up the capture device...
[04:16] <jgruber> kriscolt: it took me a little time to figure out how to set it up, vlc has been changing
[04:16] <kriscolt> it's under DVB...
[04:16] <em> ActionParsnip: you just type sudo modprobe name and it activates it again?
[04:17] <jgruber> dvb may be for digital tv
[04:17] <dextro_> im trying to cron a rsync but there is no password param
[04:17] <_jesse_> blah, how can I tell gnome-terminal to stop intercepting my function keys?
[04:17] <kriscolt> hmm... ok no dice then
[04:17] <dextro_> the remote ssh host only accepts a password login (no keys)
[04:17] <dextro_> am i effed?
[04:18] <ActionParsnip> dextro_: you can mount sshfs
[04:18] <dextro_> the remote host also closes idle ssh connectinos
[04:18] <dextro_> its a webhost
[04:18] <dextro_> im just using it for storage
[04:19] <_jesse_> never mind, I think I've figured it out
[04:19] <jgruber> kriscolt: under capture, then video for linux 2 -- you'll need the name of the video and audio devices
[04:19] <Tempus_Fugit> hey all
[04:20] <toa> mevkurray, haha funny to go to windows for a solution.  I'll give it a shot.
[04:20] <kriscolt> jgruber, is there a simple way to find the path to the vid/aud devs?
[04:21] <jgruber> kriscolt: video would probably be your only /dev/videox device (maybe /dev/video0)
[04:21] <bc81> i tried to install a game (an old windows game) by mounting the iso with gmountiso.  now i have an entry in the nautilus places that wont go away, and isn't in fstab/mtab.  any way to get rid of this?
[04:22] <jgruber> kriscolt: audio is tougher. alsa uses funny names and you probably have other audio input on your computer to confuse things (if you have a sound card)
[04:22] <kriscolt> in my dev folder i've got video0, video1, video2
[04:22] <jgruber> kriscolt: you could try trial and error for audio devices once you find them
[04:22] <gnewb> bc81: I think so, but make a backup first, then rm
[04:22] <kriscolt> :) nice... of course the audio would be the fun part
[04:22] <DaGeek247> bc81 :  tried unmounting it?
[04:23] <jgruber> kriscolt: I don't know why you would have more than one video capture device. multiple formats of the same picture, maybe???
[04:24] <meganINthehouse> irc.spotchat.org
[04:24] <bc81> hi gnewb i did remove the mount directory (/media/iso1) but its still there. here's a screenshot:  http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/581/screenshotcomputer.png yes, DaGeek247 i did unmount it now when i go to mount it it says "Unable to mount JAZZCDError mounting: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
[04:24] <bc81>        missing codepage or helper program, or other error
[04:24] <bc81>        (could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
[04:24] <bc81>        ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)
[04:24] <meganINthehouse>  /server irc.spotchat.org
[04:24] <jgruber> kriscolt: before you go to far, is the device listed as one that works for video on the linux-tv web site?
[04:24] <bc81>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[04:24] <FloodBot2> bc81: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:24] <bc81>        dmesg | tail  or so"
[04:24] <paq7512> would there be an advantage of formatting my drives ext4 instead of leaving them ntfs?
[04:24] <paq7512> i have 3 internal ntfs drives
[04:24] <kriscolt> well there's the coax inputs on the back of the tower, composite inputs in the front, a couple of svideo inputs, there's a webcam plugged in...
[04:25] <ActionParsnip> paq7512: windows cannot access ext4 currently so if you need windows to access the data, keep it ntfs, the partitions are ntfs, not the drives
[04:25] <bc81> sorry for flooding, i didn't know it would make line breaks
[04:25] <kriscolt> ok, video2 is definitely the webcam.
[04:25] <kriscolt> video1 crashes vlc
[04:25] <paq7512> ok i am just running ubuntu solely
[04:25] <kriscolt> and video0 comes in all scrambled
[04:26] <jgruber> kriscolt: the tv app you are using is almost certainly using one of them if it sees video
[04:26] <DaGeek247> bc81 cant help, sorry. my best thoughts are that you try it as root to make you have full access.
[04:27] <feyd> window show 4
[04:27] <kriscolt> jgruber, ok, it's definitely video0
[04:28] <ActionParsnip> paq7512: then ext4 should be more stable due to journalisation
[04:28] <kriscolt> but vlc pulls it in funny... i think i need to tweak some settings
[04:28] <kerozene> how do I deal with: 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
how can in configure it to write and copy to those drives? it was giving me permission errors
[04:30] <kerozene> how do I find out which package upgrade was blocked?
[04:30] <gnewb> kerozene: Look in the logs
[04:31] <SuperMiguel> any of you guys running ubuntu on the alienware m11x?
[04:31] <ubnoob> Just installed p7zip but cant find the program to open, anyone know were it installs/
[04:32] <gnewb> ubnoob: CLI, I think
[04:32] <ubnoob> gnewb: sorry what's CLI?
[04:32] <jgruber> kerozene: if you bring up synaptics, you can click on installed (upgradeable) and then individually try marking packages for upgrade. The response can tell you about complications from installing a particular package
[04:32] <gs|Dr_Worm> anyone I can ask an istall question?
[04:33] <pearlbear> hey all. I need to disable the RTL8192 driver in 10.10. It's not in lsmod, but it definitely is loading (it's in dmesg). Anyone know how to do that?
[04:33] <kerozene> gnewb: aha. [HOLD] sudo. thanks
[04:33] <jgruber> kerozene: you probably shouldn't go through with the upgrades, though, unless you are sure

[04:34] <BiohAzard`> I am asking at egghelp but nobody answer
[04:35] <bc81_> DaGeek247, gnewb - i'm back..fixed it with "sudo touch /forcefsck" it must have been a bad block or something
[04:35] <Wiesshund> BiohAzard` try maybe #irc or #irchelp ?
[04:35] <DaGeek247> bc81 :  nice to know you fixed it.
[04:35] <jgruber> kerozene: aptitude can tell you about impediments to upgrades and give you choices. I was just looking at that tonight on a server I'm trying to fix
[04:35] <rusivi> gs|Dr_Worm: It's highly unlikely a failed install will brick your netbook.
[04:36] <ubnoob> ok, thanks i learned a new command CLI
[04:36] <kerozene> jgruber: I'll look around. thanks
[04:36] <gs|Dr_Worm> really?  if it deleted the old boot record it won't be able to boot, correct?
[04:36] <bc81_> DaGeek247: whoa it says i quit, but i'm still here lol!

[04:36] <dany> hola

[04:37] <gs|Dr_Worm> np.  any suggestions?
[04:37] <rusivi> gs|Dr_Worm: If the install failed, does it at least run as a Live CD?
[04:38] <gs|Dr_Worm> well, there's no cd drive...its installing froma live usb drive.  and i'm kind of afraid to restart it because that's when i think the bricking will take place

[05:03] <smw> mister_m, yes. The & in &> sends stderr there too
[05:03] <Wiesshund> Chilaquiles|2 swap wont show anything if it isnt being needed. as for your CPU have you looked in top to see whats running?
[05:03] <gnewb> ubnoob: This is a nice walk through site: > http://www.brighthub.com/hubfolio/matthew-casperson/articles/82095.aspx
[05:03] <mister_m> smw, cool
[05:03] <Chilaquiles> Wiesshund: but I think thats why my ubuntu freezes after some time
[05:04] <smw> mister_m, you can also do > stout.log 2> stderr.log
[05:04] <Wiesshund> Chilaquiles well like i said, swap will show 0 usage if nothing is actualy using it. but your high CPU use, i would look in top and see whats eating so much cpu time
[05:05] <Chilaquiles> wll Im playing a video on youtube
[05:05] <Chilaquiles> and that seems like is eating a lot of CPU usage
[05:05] <gs|Dr_Worm> ok...tried formatting first.....we'll see if that made the difference.  installing now
[05:05] <dany> el reproductor totem no reproduce dvd original,que tengo que instalar?
[05:05] <Chilaquiles> but it wasnt doing it before
[05:05] <Wiesshund> Chilaquiles stuff only pages to swap if it needs to, if you have enough ram, most times it just sits there doing nothing
[05:06] <sdferfx> Hello. Is there an easy way to download needed deb and all its dependencies on not-Ubuntu? A script that will do it for me or something?
[05:06] <sdferfx> Because I need to install some stuff on a ubuntu machine without net
[05:06] <Wiesshund> Chilaquiles if you stop playing youtube (close firefox?) whats your cpu use go to?
[05:06] <sdferfx> and want to copy all needed stuff over so I don't have to deal with it
[05:06] <kerozene> gabrieluk: lenny comes with php 5.2, lts lucid: 5.3.2. that should give you some idea
[05:06] <Chilaquiles> 37%
[05:06] <DaGeek247> sdferfx i want an answer to that too.
[05:06] <Chilaquiles> Wiesshund: 37%
[05:07] <kerozene> gabrieluk: 5.2.6, at that
[05:07] <Wiesshund> Chilaquiles 37%? what else you got running?
[05:07] <Chilaquiles> only the video on youtube
[05:07] <dany>  el reproductor totem no reproduce dvd original,que tengo que instalar?
[05:07] <gabrieluk> kerozene,brazuca?
[05:08] <Wiesshund> Chilaquiles so with only irc running your cpu is at 37% ?
[05:08] <kerozene> gabrieluk: ?
[05:08] <rww> !es | dany
[05:08] <gabrieluk> kerozene,i tough i were brazilian
[05:08] <rww> !dvd | dany
[05:08] <gabrieluk> ,you were*
[05:09] <Chilaquiles> Wiesshund: I have the files explorer files in gedit
[05:09] <llelio> lgko
[05:10] <Wiesshund> Chilaquiles shut everything off but irc for a minute
[05:10] <sdferfx> So is there any way for me to put a bunch of stuff I want to install on a USB stick and have that work without attempting to download all the deps individually?
[05:11] <Chilaquiles> Wiesshund: I did, but I dont think is gonna work, I already restarted 2 times
[05:11] <Chilaquiles> Wiesshund: and also my computer freezed
[05:11] <kerozene> how can I find out why there's a hold on sudo? aptitude why-not doesn't show any conflicts
[05:12] <Wiesshund> sdferfx yea you can manualy download the debs, trying to remember ubotto's help file on it
[05:12] <Wiesshund> !offline
[05:12] <jgruber> sdferfx: maybe someone else will come up with another idea, but it seems to me that what you need depends on both what you want and what package versions are already on a particular system. ...
[05:13] <jgruber> sdferfx: maybe the closest is to take a distribution cd to the disconnected computer to get as close as you can to what you need and iterate from there. I hope someone else has a better idea
[05:13] <Wiesshund> !offline > sdferfx
[05:13] <ytaews> Just a question, what is the name for the messages that appear in the top right of screen that you get when Rhythmbox changes songs, etc. ?
[05:13] <DaGeek247> !offline > DaGeek247
[05:14] <DaGeek247> cool!
[05:14] <jgruber> sdferfx: outsmarted by a robot. that's my day :)
[05:14] <Wiesshund> Chilaquiles whats the specs on this machine your having trouble with, and what ubuntu revision is on it?
[05:14] <sdferfx> ok, thanks guys, that website is nice but it makes it hard to download all packages again
[05:14] <sdferfx> I will just boot live and use synaptics generate script feature
[05:15] <Wiesshund> sdferfx the script feature is probably the handiest
[05:15] <sdferfx> I wish it was more available online, if that site gave me an easy way (like a list of wget commands) to download all that I would be good
[05:19] <ytaews> Never mind, I worked it out.
[05:19] <C3D> what it bootstrap.log used for?
[05:19] <dyingprism> I somehow disabled use of my desktop, so I only can access it in a file manager, does anyone know how to change this back in gnome?
[05:22] <Wiesshund> dyingprism you mean you dont see items in user/desktop ?
[05:22] <C3D> prity quiet in here tonight
[05:23] <dyingprism> Wiesshund: no i mean my physical desktop can not be interacted with, i can only use the folder /user/desktop to manage my 'desktop' files
[05:23] <Wiesshund> so you see the stuff but cant do anythign with it?
[05:23] <dyingprism> I did this because I was trying to use multiple wallpapers for a desktop cube in compiz but I forget how I disabled it
[05:23] <dyingprism> No I don't see the stuff at all, I can't do anything on the desktop except look at it.
[05:24] <BeHero> how does this work?
[05:24] <Wiesshund> dyingprism if you right click desktop you still get the normal popup menu?
[05:24] <DEAD_BEEF> dyingprism, like no icons on the desktop
[05:24] <DEAD_BEEF> like nautilius isn't managing the desktop?
[05:25] <dyingprism> Wiesshund: no, DEAD_BEEF no DEAD_BEEF yes
[05:25] <dyingprism> DEAD_BEEF: so that is my new question, how can i set nautalius to manage the desktop again
[05:25] <DEAD_BEEF> probably just logout and back in
[05:25] <soreau> I have a problem with my P311 stereo headset device using Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode). It works fine but when in a2dp mode and there is no audio output, the device goes into a sleep mode then when there is audio again, a2dp stutters until I set it to Telephony Duplex and back to A2DP (or set it from the onboard audio back to the p311 device)
[05:26] <crossedeyefreak> Hello, I need help.
[05:26] <gs|Dr_Worm> oh shit.
[05:26] <gs|Dr_Worm> it installed and rebooted fine!  awesome!
[05:26] <crossedeyefreak> I'm trying to install Windows.
[05:27] <soreau> crossedeyefreak: Then you're asking in the wrong channel. Try #windows
[05:27] <Wiesshund> dyingprism Within gconf-editor ensure the "/apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop" option is unchecked <-- that disables desktop, did you do that?
[05:27] <crossedeyefreak> No, this isn't a windows related questing
[05:27] <gpc> gs|Dr_Worm: happy for you. please keep the language clean.
[05:27] <Wiesshund> gs|Dr_Worm Super!
[05:28] <gs|Dr_Worm> sorry man.  heh
[05:28] <jetole> Does anyone know how to purge a package you installed with dpkg -i ?
[05:28] <crossedeyefreak> I get a error when installing it, it won't let me format the drive (which is ext4 right now). How would I change it?
[05:28] <soreau> jetole: apt-get remove --purge ?
[05:28] <soreau> crossedeyefreak: boot ubuntu live cd and use gparted or dd to wipe the drive
[05:29] <crossedeyefreak> Thanks! :D
[05:29] <jetole> soreau: nope. http://pastebin.com/hbXFyCQ1
[05:29] <crossedeyefreak> now I need to find it :P
[05:29] <brukutu> any1 here has any lucky with empathy and skype?
[05:29] <gs|Dr_Worm> awesome!  wireless and flash are working out of the box.  thank god.  wireless sucked last time i did this...had to write the driver myself
[05:30] <jetole> brukutu: I don't really like empathy and almost never use skype but you know you can install the skype program on it's own
[05:30] <soreau> jetole: What is the output of 'dpkg -l|grep brmfc7440nlpr'?
[05:30] <crossedeyefreak> I have skype
[05:30] <paroh> firesheep
[05:31] <paroh> my friend use firesheep to capture my session
[05:31] <jetole> soreau: ii  brmfc7440nlpr                         2.0.2-1                                           Brother MFC-7440N LPR driver
[05:31] <paroh> to demostratwe me
[05:31] <soreau> jetole: try dpkg -r
[05:32] <crossedeyefreak> Sometimes, I ask myself why I have a Windows 3.11 disk >.>
[05:32] <jetole> soreau: does that do the same as purge or is that the same as apt-get remove?
[05:32] <jetole> soreau: I kinda want to get rid of everything it installed
[05:32] <DEAD_BEEF> dyingprism, did it work?
[05:33] <soreau> jetole: It uses dpkg to remove the package.
[05:33] <jetole> right. but is that more like apt-get remove or apt-get purge ?
[05:33] <jetole> @ soreau
[05:33] <soreau> jetole: If the package is listed in synaptic, you can let the GUI take care of it
[05:33] <kerozene> how can I find out why there's a hold on sudo upgrade? aptitude why-not doesn't show any conflicts
[05:33]  * jetole checks
[05:33] <soreau> jetole: Otherwise see dpkg --help
[05:34] <soreau> kerozene: A hold?
[05:34] <rollman> what's sudo update do now?
[05:34] <soreau> rly :p
[05:35] <kerozene> soreau: an upgrade hold in aptitude
[05:35] <Wiesshund> crossedeyefreak what happened to the other 7 disks?
[05:35] <crossedeyefreak> Huh?
[05:35] <dyingprism> DEAD_BEEF: Wiesshund yes it worked, thanks very much :)
[05:36] <soreau> kerozene: that makes no sense
[05:36] <kerozene> rollman: you asking me?
[05:36] <dyingprism> going to restart gdm now
[05:36] <Wiesshund> dyingprism no problem :) glad that was all it was
[05:36] <crossedeyefreak> Found the ubuntu disk!
[05:36] <DEAD_BEEF> np there's also: /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop
[05:36] <DEAD_BEEF> in gconf-editor
[05:36] <rollman> anyone what does sudo update do?
[05:36] <kerozene> soreau: you know 'aptitude hold' yes?
[05:36] <soreau> kerozene: no
[05:36] <dyingprism> i'm glad you guys knew these things
[05:37] <brukutu> hey guys. when trying to install traceroute, it gets stuck for a really long time on "Unpacking replacement traceroute ...
[05:37] <brukutu> " ......tried to even remove it, it tells me its in a real bad state and i should reinstall it first....what must i do ?
[05:38] <Wiesshund> dyingprism i dont remember everything off top of my head, i cheat and look it up
[05:38] <Wiesshund> gotta do something useful with openoffices db app ;)
[05:38] <kerozene> rollman: thank you. you gave me the clue I needed
[05:39] <kerozene> aptitude can't upgrade 'sudo' because I'm doing sudo safe-upgrade. doing it as root worked

[05:50] <kieron> how do i go to linux mint help
[05:50] <rww> !mint
[05:50] <ezy> amagee, so if I want stdout to write to log shouldnt I be using different number than 2 ?
[05:50] <rww> /server irc.spotchat.org, then /join #linuxmint-help
[05:50] <maw-83>  #help
[05:51] <amagee> ezy: if you want stdout to write to log, then your command was correct; i was just guessing maybe it was writing to stderr instead since you said it wasn't working.
[05:51] <nunya> is there someway to see what command is happening underneath something I do in GNOME? Like I use my function keys to volume up and volume down, and I would like to see the command line command that is happening underneath... if that makes sense
[05:51] <maw-83> Why my external hard drives are left on when closing ubuntu?
[05:52] <ezy> amagee, I tried it with 2 as you suggested and now it seems to be writing to the log file...could 2 be actually stdout ?
[05:52] <amagee> i don't think so
[05:53] <dustin> nunya?
[05:53] <ezy> amagee, so far it seems to be performing what I expects with 2 :-) Thanks for your help bro

[06:02] <jadarite> Hello, I am trying to install Edubuntu, but the problem might be the same as trying to install Ubuntu.  I go through the installation process and then it tries to skip installation files.  After that it just shuts off and doesn't restart.  I have already tried obvious things like disconnecting and checking the DVD to make sure it's ok.  Could it be a partition problem?

[06:09] <dustin> jadarite, do you have enough ram ?
[06:09] <nunya> dustin: my bad, you could use vnc?
[06:09] <made2shred> Blue1: thanks i didn' know about a GUI for samba. i've been using the config file. do you know how to get my computer to show up on the network tab of mac os x (10.4 and .5) and ubuntu? (10.10)
[06:10] <Spaztic_One> I have a question that may or may not be relevant to this channel... Can rhythmbox open protected mp3 files, even though technically it shouldn't be able to? Reason why I'm asking is cause audacity cannot open a file that I can play in rhythmbox with no problems whatsoever.
[06:10] <jadarite> dustin, maybe not, what is the minimum?
[06:10] <nunya> is there someway to see what command is happening underneath something I do in GNOME? Like I use my function keys to volume up and volume down, and I would like to see the command line command that is happening underneath... if that makes sense
[06:10] <Gnea> okay, perhaps someone here can help shed some light on the subject, since #ubuntu-server is full of limited users that don't seem to know the difference between a whole disk and a partition
[06:11] <dustin> nunya , pm  me the how to , yes i have that , dont know jow to use it

[06:12] <shcherbak> nunya: menu > System > Preferencies > Keyboard Shortcut, to see "button code" an command triggered.
[06:12] <Gnea> I'm trying to install ubuntu server 10.04 amd64 via USB drive (don't have network on the target computer or ability to make a cd, so don't ask) and it absolutely refuses to detect the USB drive as a CDROM drive in order to make the installation complete.  I used unetbootin because usb-creator-gtk is broken.  How can I get the USB drive to be accepted as a CDROM device?
[06:12] <jadarite> !help # minimal requirements for ubuntu
[06:12] <made2shred> is there a way to set a custom icon for a samba share?
[06:12] <jadarite> !help #minimal requirements for ubuntu
[06:12] <dustin> no fooling
[06:13] <dustin> no flooding
[06:14] <shcherbak> ubottu: tell jadarite about minimal
[06:14] <nunya> shcherbak: thanks, I'll give it a shot
[06:14] <Gnea> I went as far as disconnecting the CDROM drive itself and that prompted the installer to ask if I wanted to detect it manually - it scanned everything, but didn't list /dev/sdb1 as an option, although it did attempt to use /dev/sdb. what is wrong with this?
[06:15] <twiztid> whats the most stable kernel that has the polling option? so i can use this workaround drm_kms_helper.poll=0
[06:15] <dustin> nunya, right click  on my name(menu) / open dialog window.......
[06:15] <Spaztic_One> gnea: can the computer for install boot off of a USB device? I would assume yes. You should be able to go into the BIOS and set USB as a bootable medium. You may have to change the order that it checks though. ...unless I'm misunderstanding what you're asking for.
[06:16] <Gnea> Spaztic_One: AFAIK yes, it's a dell precision 390 and I just hit F12 to set it as the device to boot from
[06:16] <Spaztic_One> Gnea: And it still isn't booting off of the USB?
[06:17] <dustin> twiztid, google it , system update , hardware update , look in blogs
[06:17] <Gnea> Spaztic_One: it BOOTS off of the USB, but Ubuntu *itself* refuses to accept the fact that the USB device itself is considered the CDROM device, so it never gets to the actual installation phase.
[06:17] <twiztid> dustin: have been :-(
[06:17] <Gnea> Spaztic_One: it goes to detect the CDROM and it comes up and says "you don't have anything to install from, you are screwed."
[06:18] <Spaztic_One> heh
[06:18] <Gnea> :)
[06:18] <Gnea> and yet, that's not supposed to be the case, and I know the files are there
[06:18] <dustin> gnea,  true be threres others ways of doing it , your doing it the hardest way , and i have looked around alot
[06:18] <asdfsadfafdafs> #cassandra
[06:18] <rollman> is their a time limit (in years) a person can still have still be able to use a usb dvd rom drive that's never been used? i mean do drives fail and go bad after long periods of no usage?
[06:19] <Spaztic_One> gnea: So, do you have an ISO or other image on the usb drive? (and just to clarify, this is an external drive, not a flash memory stick, correct?)
[06:20] <shcherbak> rollman: dust? Did you try to clean it?
[06:20] <ilon> how well are ubunto on handeling several PCIe gfx?
[06:20] <Gnea> dustin, Spaztic_One: I've physically disconnected the actual cdrom drive and that was able to get the installer to at least recognize the fact that it couldn't find anything via UDEV, and gave me the option to manually set it. When it went to scan, it scanned everything except the partition on the usb device itself. Tell me, what's wrong with this picture?
[06:20] <Gnea> Spaztic_One: Yes, the ISO is on the usb drive, no, it's a flash memory stick.
[06:20] <Gnea> Spaztic_One: USB drive is a sandisk cruser
[06:20] <rollman> never opened it just wondering if it's been a couple years or longer i never opened the box
[06:21] <Gnea> Spaztic_One: I tried on a sandisk cruzer blade as well, same deal
[06:21] <Spaztic_One> Gnea: Heh, not entirely sure whats going on. But you could try to mount the ISO to /media/disk or something and then have the installer query for drives, perhaps?
[06:21] <dustin> gnea, just a min im going through my library,
[06:21] <Gnea> ilon: in my experience, pretty well
[06:21] <Gnea> Spaztic_One: haven't tried that, one sec...
[06:21] <Spaztic_One> Gnea: I have no idea if that will work, though.
[06:22] <nunya> shcherbak: it doesn't tell me the exact command for the shortcut it just says XF86AudioLowerVolume
[06:22] <rollman> it's got plastic seal wrapped around it
[06:23] <ilon> Gnea: was thinking about using a 3gfx setup to enable the use of 3-6 monitors, just havent had any experience with multiple gfx in ubuntu so far
[06:23] <Gnea> ilon: 3gfx?! what's that?
[06:24] <Gnea> Spaztic_One: negative, tried it on /media/disk and then on /media by itself, it's full of fail.
[06:24] <shcherbak> nunya: amixer let you control volume lever from cli.
[06:24] <ilon> Gnea: well, need more than two monitors, and i found a rather cheap 3gfx SLI rigg that i'm thinking about buying
[06:24] <dustin> gnea, how big is your flash dirve , what brand is it?
[06:24] <Spaztic_One> Gnea: Eh, was worth a shot I guess...
[06:24] <Gnea> ilon: ah I see, nvidia is tested and true, ati leaves something to be desired
[06:25] <Gnea> dustin: as I said, it's a sandisk... 2gb
[06:25] <Gnea> Spaztic_One: indeed
[06:25] <dustin> sorry very busy , missed that
[06:25] <Gnea> np
[06:25] <ilon> Gnea: oh, well, guess i'll go with the idea on nvidia then, never actually bought myself an ATI card, ever. due to the properitary drivers for linux
[06:26] <ilon> Gnea: but the xorg handles separte videocards for multiple monitors quite well then i suppose?
[06:26] <Spaztic_One> Gnea: Wait, I think for it to be recognized as a cdrom drive, it needs to be /media/cdrom0 (or some other number, but 0 is a safe bet I think)
[06:26] <Gnea> ilon: as I understand it, getting more than 2 monitors to work on multiple ati cards in linux is simply impossible, and if it isn't, it isn't well documented at all
[06:27] <Gnea> Spaztic_One: k I'll give that a shot
[06:27] <Spaztic_One> Gnea: doing /media/drive was just putting it on the filesystem in that spot, but the cdrom0 should actually make it think its a drive. Again, I could be wrong....
[06:27] <Spaztic_One> Gnea: Sorry if I'm not so good at this help thing. xD
[06:28] <ilon> Gnea: well, will yet have to see about nvidia cards then :D
[06:28] <Gnea> Spaztic_One: from what I've observed on tty4, it actually tries to mount anything except for that one partition
[06:28] <Gnea> Spaztic_One: and no, /media/cdrom0 didn't work either :)
[06:28] <Spaztic_One> Blast.
[06:29] <Gnea> yeah, I'm about set to give up for the night
[06:29] <Spaztic_One> yeah, I should probably go to bed. its 130 am for me
[06:29] <Spaztic_One> >.<
[06:29] <Gnea> lol 12:30 here
[06:30] <Gnea> anyway, thanks for the attempted help fellas, it's appreciated
[06:31] <brukutu> apt-get stuck on Unpacking replacement...any ideas?
[06:31] <Spaztic_One> No problem. Sorry it was merely attempts and not successful help.
[06:31] <brukutu> on any packages i try, gets stuck on unpacking

[06:31] <khaime> i just installed the ubuntu 10.10, and so far i am loving it...have not been on ubuntu in a while !

[06:43] <madmn> can anyone help me network an ubuntu box to get in from the outside world
[06:44] <csw840915> Hey everyone. Looking for some help please if anyone can assist.
[06:44] <madmn> and any information on how to setup a ftp server in ubuntu would be great
[06:44] <dustin> madmn, i would see, but i got more then i can handle
[06:44] <madmn> is there anywhere you can point me to get help
[06:44] <csw840915> try use filezilla
[06:44] <csw840915> for ftp
[06:44] <dustin> madmn i would like o know yself
[06:44] <miidi> Any one know a software that can be used to videocast desktop while on webcam
[06:45] <Prodigy007> i just want a good install :/
[06:45] <jgal> madmn 'connect from the outside world' - is SSH good enough for you?
[06:45] <greppy> madmn: sudo apt-get install proftpd will get you an FTP server.
[06:45] <dustin> vlc , maybe ???
[06:45] <madmn> i need to setup ftp server in ubunto so i can ftp in
[06:45] <madmn> proftp keeps disconnecting
[06:45] <greppy> madmn: do you need ftp, or do you need to transfer files to it?
[06:46] <jgal> madmn is scp ok as an alternative?
[06:46] <madmn> i need to transfer files from say a windows 7 machine
[06:46] <miidi> madmn : you can use fillezilla server edition
[06:46] <rumpe1> madmn, just install openssh-server and you can login with your user/password via sftp
[06:46] <madmn> how would i get proftpd to start automatically
[06:46] <tensorpudding> winscp is a windows scp client
[06:46] <red2kic> sftp = ftp over ssh. :o
[06:46] <tensorpudding> which might be helpful
[06:47] <miidi> Any one know a software that can be used to videocast desktop while on webcam??
[06:47] <greppy> madmn: you should look at getting ssh server running, sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[06:47] <greppy> that will let you get in on console and transfer files, securely.
[06:47] <dustin> nanya, you there
[06:48] <csw840915> Anyone knowledgable about Ubuntu and WIndows Mobile devices?
[06:48] <madmn> okay i have openssh installed now
[06:48] <madmn> i am using leetchftp
[06:48] <madmn> will that work
[06:48] <greppy> madmn: you can use something line winscp or filezilla from windows to transfer files to it.
[06:49] <dustin> well the purpose is what ,csw840915im not much but i learn  with you,
[06:49] <madmn> i will try filezilla thanks
[06:49] <gusg> I'm installing "XVidCap" and in order to do so I need to remove "libavcodec52" and "libavutil50" What kind of anti-dependency is this? How can I find out?
[06:49] <csw840915> hi looking for help with ubuntu 10.10 and connecting to windows mobile phone
[06:50] <gusg> also how can I see which packages depend on these libraries that need to be removed
[06:50] <csw840915> the opensync available in the repositories dont work, when you try open synce tray icon nothing happens
[06:50] <dustin> ksinkar_ hey you got it?
[06:50] <Ahrotahntee> to use X11 forwarding; I need a Windows client, right? what is the most popular client?
[06:50] <red2kic> gusg: lib* are libraries. It's probably anti because those files are similar and resides in same file path.
[06:51] <csw840915> Problems with Ubuntu 10.10 opensync
[06:51] <csw840915> hey guys
[06:51] <csw840915> anyone know that 10.10 got problems with opensync
[06:51] <csw840915> it dont work
[06:51] <csw840915> anyone know what to do about it
[06:51] <greppy> Ahrotahntee: you can use cygwin X11
[06:51] <red2kic> gusg: I can
[06:51] <gusg> red2kic: thanks. I left the Ubuntu Free Software whatever and am in Synaptic. It appears that it's replacing these libraries with "-extra" versions
[06:51] <dustin> Prodigy007, do you met the requirements for ubuntu
[06:51] <Ahrotahntee> greppy: I see that, but between that and XMing, which would you say is more popular/reliable
[06:51] <red2kic> gusg: I can't remember the command -- but I'm thinking if you tried to remove the files using apt-remove -- It would prompt that certain apps need those dependencies -- One way to find out.
[06:52] <csw840915> hey guys, think you can help me
[06:52] <csw840915> ??
[06:52] <greppy> Ahrotahntee: I've never used xming, the only free one I have used is cygwin.
[06:53] <Loshki> gusg: also, have a look at apt-cache depends/rdepends'
[06:53] <ksinkar_> dustin: no
[06:53] <csw840915> Hey guys, if anyone is willing, I am having trouble with Ubuntu 10.10 and trying to connect an HTC windows mobile phone. Cannot pick up the device and the opensync problem just does not work properly for some reason
[06:54] <greppy> csw840915: if anyone knew or could help, they would.
[06:54] <csw840915> thanks
[06:54] <csw840915> thats why I keep asking
[06:54] <madmn> i still cannot ftp into the box
[06:54] <greppy> *nod* might just want to wait more than 2 minutes :)
[06:54] <csw840915> so should I just report a bug then
[06:54] <greppy> madmn: sorry, have filezilla use sftp instead of ftp
[06:54] <greppy> madmn: that should let you in.
[06:55] <sshorm> wat
[06:55] <shcherbak> csw840915: Does gammu (wammu) works with this type of dev?
[06:55] <madmn> use sftp instead of filezilla ?
[06:55] <csw840915> never heard of gammu, checking it out on google
[06:56] <rollman> windows phone is relatively new i don't think have any sync programs available for that yet?
[06:57] <made2shred> how do i stop mounted truecrypt volumes showing on the desktop?
[06:57] <csw840915> actually Ubuntu Lucid works perfectly for the same windows mobile phone
[06:57] <csw840915> just they changed the branch of the opensync version
[06:57] <csw840915> in Ubuntu 10.10
[06:58] <shcherbak> made2shred: gconf-editor (in Apps>nautilus>desktop)?
[06:58] <csw840915> I will be looking into gwammy thanks geppy
[06:58] <csw840915> greppy
[06:58] <greppy> csw840915: ?
[06:58] <greppy> ah
[06:58] <dustin> ksinkar_, http://karuppuswamy.com/wordpress/2008/11/20/flashmagic-on-linux-using-wine/
[06:58] <made2shred> shcherbak: thanks
[06:58] <csw840915> I said thanks i am looking into this gammu wammu
[06:58] <csw840915> program
[06:59] <csw840915> do you gammu for your mobile needs on Ubuntu
[06:59] <rollman> csw840915 so you can't sync the phone in 10.10 but can in lucid?
[07:00] <csw840915> Yes
[07:00] <csw840915> I know even why
[07:00] <GulfStream> I don't think OpenOffice.org was installed during installation. How can I quickly check?
[07:00] <shcherbak> csw840915: http://wammu.eu/phones/htc/ list of supported HTC
[07:00] <JackyAlcine> GulfStream: distro?
[07:01] <csw840915> they changed the version and the libraries of the opensync and synce packages in the latest release from a stable to a development unstable release of the synce package
[07:01] <ksinkar_> dustin: i know that link
[07:01] <JackyAlcine> GulfStream: And open a terminal window and type in "openoffice.org-writer"
[07:01] <ksinkar_> dustin: i have done that before
[07:01] <GulfStream> JackyAlcine: Ubuntu 10.04.1 or Ubuntu 10.04.2
[07:01] <JackyAlcine> GulfStream: It should be installed upon a good clean one.
[07:02] <JackyAlcine> GulfStream: Can check by "sudo apt-get install openoffice*"
[07:02] <csw840915> thanks guys for the help
[07:02] <GulfStream> looks like I don't have openoffice.
[07:02] <dustin> ksinkar_ , did you see the caption below the pic< opensus linux
[07:02] <csw840915> I will take it from there
[07:03] <ksinkar_> dustin: what i want to know is that my ubuntu software managers shows two wine software versions
[07:03] <ksinkar_> dummy and beta release
[07:03] <domnukalu> Hi. Is it possible to have ubuntu installed on a usb stick, and use it on multiple computers? By that meaning all the changes made to the os to be remembered, like programs installs, or documents, etc... ? Thanks!
[07:03] <ksinkar_> i want the stable and tested version
[07:03] <ksinkar_> which one should i install
[07:04] <GulfStream> ksinkar_, I think you want the beta package
[07:05] <dustin> one is for the uesr (stable) and ""dev)elop" unstable
[07:05] <shcherbak> !usb | domnukalu
[07:06] <domnukalu> I don t want to install it, but to use it, like the live cd. I ve managed to install from usb stick, but dunno how to use it. Like I said above.
[07:07] <madmn> can i network ubuntu from behind a router
[07:07] <dustin> ksinkar_for games it matter , early on it seemed you need to choose , but10.04 and higher doesnt so much, just what "flavor" and verion
[07:07] <greppy> madmn: you can configure your router to forward ports to your ubuntu server
[07:08] <madmn> okay
[07:08] <madmn> and how would i do that exactly
[07:08] <greppy> madmn: if you forward TCP 22 to your server, that should work.
[07:08] <dustin> ksinkar_,for games it matter , early on it seemed you need to choose , but10.04 and higher doesnt so much, just what "flavor" and verion
[07:08] <greppy> madmn: that is specific to your router, you may want to hit up google with the model and 'port forward' :)
[07:08] <madmn> right now i have to connect to like <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:09] <madmn> i want to be able to use my static ip
[07:09] <greppy> madmn: you need to configure your router to forward the port to your server.
[07:09] <JackyAlcine> GulfStream: Go to LibreOffice. ;)
[07:10] <GulfStream> JackyAlcine: What is the difference between  them?
[07:10] <madmn> so once i port forward then how do i do it
[07:10] <ksinkar_> dustin: the application i want to run is not a game, so should i use the beta version without any problems?
[07:11] <JackyAlcine> GulfStream: LibreOffice's a fork of OOo and it's the version that plans to not only *remain* free and for the community, but it's expected to have way more of a plugin system and more integration for *unix systems.
[07:11] <greppy> GulfStream: libre office is pretty much the future of openoffice, due to issues after oracle aquired sun
[07:14] <shcherbak> domnukalu: yes, any machine (almost).
[07:14] <GHH> Any harm if i remove plymouth?
[07:15] <nicofs> I want a script to be run at startup... where can i put the command so that this works?
[07:15] <shcherbak> GHH: you can disable it no boot, usually it ask to remove ubuntu-desktop on removal.
[07:16] <dustin> ksinkar_ sure , but as soon as you start that program your computer will be a litlle jiddery, MAKE TOLTALL sURE YOU MET requirements, for wine will think it windows . then will act like it, good and bad , yes
[07:16] <shcherbak> nicofs: crontab for example, is it user script, or system-wide?
[07:16] <GHH> shcherbak, How ? and did not say me to remove ubuntu-desktop.
[07:17] <shcherbak> !boot | GHH
[07:18] <GHH> shcherbak, I was deleted /lib/plymouth/themes manually lol but when i reboot it is just hanging
[07:18] <dustin> ksinkar_ but i got it from the web sit
[07:18] <nicofs> shcherbak, for a start, i would like to run something like "PATH=$PATH:/another/folder" as there is only one user on this machine, user-wide would be enough, but if you tell me both, i learned something...
[07:18] <dustin> ksinkar_, http://www.winehq.org/download/
[07:19] <shcherbak> GHH: wrong, remove splash and eventually add noplymouth (press shift at boot and edit)
[07:19] <shcherbak> nicofs: You can add path in bashrc
[07:19] <GHH> shcherbak, How to remove splash?
[07:20] <nicofs> shcherbak, but doesn't that get executed as soon as i start a terminal? every time?
[07:21] <shcherbak> GHH: Boot, hold shift, in grub go to edit (press e) you will see line with all options, chnage them and Ctrl-x
[07:21] <GHH> shcherbak, But i want to edit it manually(from exactly location)
[07:22] <shcherbak> !grub | GHH
[07:22] <GHH> shcherbak, I know these but do not find the real thing
[07:22] <shcherbak> nicofs: if it is ~/.bashrc it is for user only
[07:23] <dustin> !vnc| GHH
[07:23] <jPuff> !ot jPuff
[07:23] <GHH> dustin, lol learning?
[07:23] <jPuff> !ot
[07:23] <dustin> tons
[07:24] <dustin> i thought your name was a command..
[07:24] <dustin> lol sorry
[07:24] <dustin> !vnc| dustin
[07:25] <GHH> shcherbak, If i uninstall plymouth then will boot splash disable ?
[07:25] <puppy> how to connect to openvpn
[07:25] <nicofs> shcherbak, that's what i did until now... and as long as it is only the "PATH" thing, that's ok... but i'd rather have something executed once and user-/system-wide after login/at startup... it's not exactly efficient programming to start it again and again with every terminal i start...
[07:25] <cornaljoe> hi can any1 help me?
[07:25] <shcherbak> GHH: edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg, and update grub, it looks logical, if you can remove plymouth.
[07:26] <ngrstan> fuckin grub
[07:26] <ksinkar_> i accidentaly tried to format my pendrive while it was mounted, is the damage irreparable?
[07:26] <ngrstan> i spent 12hrs messing with it until dasei helped me fix it
[07:26] <ksinkar_> Can the pendrive ever be used?
[07:26] <cornaljoe> im trying to install win7 from ubuntu on my laptop
[07:26] <greppy> !ask | cornaljoe
[07:26] <dustin> ghh, i like your  name cuz its short to type , no one else has it else, wish names was like that
[07:27] <shcherbak> nicofs: ok, trontab -e (with sudo for root/whole system), and
[07:27] <GHH> ngrstan, DesHi is good man.. However what was your problem?
[07:27] <GHH> dustin, thanks . I like short thing
[07:27] <ngrstan> GHH: i created a new ntfs partition, installed xp onto it, and it knackered my mbr
[07:28] <cornaljoe> !ask how do I install/use windows from ubuntu
[07:28] <shcherbak> nicofs: that nice: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto
[07:28] <ngrstan> spent a solid 10 or 12 hours (obviously multitasking though) going through tutorials and things, could not fix it for the life of me
[07:28] <Loshki> dustin: check out tab-completion in your client...
[07:28] <greppy> !virtualbox | cornaljoe
[07:28] <shcherbak> nicofs: do you think of graphical applications?
[07:29] <boxxy> dollar cab?
[07:29] <cornaljoe> thx
[07:29] <dustin> Loshki huh meanin what?
[07:29] <puppy> how to connect to openvpn
[07:29] <nicofs> shcherbak, the will eventually get run by the script i will call...
[07:29] <boxxy> !openvpn
[07:30] <shcherbak> nicofs: You also may want to look at Upstart
[07:30] <shcherbak> !upstart
[07:30] <Loshki> dustin: hitting tab will autocomplete names if you just type the first few letters of the name. Takes the sting out of long usernames...
[07:30] <nicofs> shcherbak, thanks, mate - will have a look at it all...
[07:30] <ngrstan> oh man, 1lb of lean turkey despite being quite nutritionally sound, creates one hell of a food baby
[07:31] <puppy> and I need only a login username and password to connect
[07:31] <GHH> dustin, I am trying to sitting it so that do not show any ubuntu logo or wallpaper when pc is booting and shuting down....
[07:31] <greppy> !ot | ngrstan
[07:31] <dustin> Loshki, help me understand what your saying?
[07:32] <nicofs> moving on... While trying to compile a kernel (ARM, natively), I get "ld: no machine record defined". What does that mean?
[07:32] <Loshki> dustin: type 'Lo' then hit <tab>. It should fill in the rest of the name...
[07:32] <dustin> lo
[07:33] <shcherbak> los
[07:33] <dustin> does not for me Loshki,  the copy and paste is all i got
[07:33] <dustin> Loshki, ??
[07:33] <shcherbak> dustin: What if you press <TAB>?
[07:34] <Loshki> dustin: wow. In my client, it shows all the completions of names beginning lo... I guess you need a better client
[07:34] <greppy> Loshki: he has xchat
[07:34] <Loshki> greppy: then why doesn't his tab autocomplete?
[07:34] <dustin> im in xchat, dont know about you guys
[07:34] <greppy> Loshki: I don't know.
[07:35] <nicofs> dustin, try "los" + [tab]
[07:35] <dustin> Loshki, , works
[07:36] <dustin> ..)   yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! i hate spelling names out! im so happy!!!!
[07:36] <Loshki> dustin: cool..

[07:45] <GHH> Shadowjedi01, how far is done ?
[07:46] <dustin> Shadowjedi01, so be for you get all polished , you need to reinstall,
[07:48] <puppy> i have installed openvpn and visited openvpn.net but its  all so confusing.Its very easy to connect in windows as just entering the gateway address and login data.
[07:48] <greppy> puppy: what are you using to configure your openvpn client?
[07:49] <shcherbak> GHH: once more, disable plymouth at boot (option onsplash), and install themes from synaptic, reboot with "normal" options. One second linky is coming...
[07:49] <dustin> Shadowjedi01 , so all that work is for nothing , and it will on occation frezee up , non responsive programs dont work , or futyre ones dont , and a while list of stuff (32 bit 64 bit dependent)
[07:50] <puppy> it is showing there in my internet connection status "confugure vpn"
[07:50] <shcherbak> GHH: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9034192&postcount=510
[07:51] <dustin> puppy,? do you know ,since your workin on this , how do i get my address so my htc evo 4g works
[07:51] <Zaca12> good morning folks, would anyone be able to help? I need to securely format a drive and make 100% certain that data will not be able to be retrieved, what would you say is the best method of doing this under ubuntu/debian?
[07:51] <greppy> puppy: I haven't seen anyone get openvpn to work using the connection manager.
[07:51] <puppy> I just click there and put the login details
[07:51] <cornaljoe> whats the channel for virtualbox?
[07:51] <puppy> so what should I do
[07:51] <greppy> puppy: create an /etc/openvpn/client.conf file like you would for windows, and use sudo service openvpn start client
[07:51] <mattalexx> What's the "General chat" channel on Freenode?
[07:51] <dustin> !virtualbox|puppy
[07:52] <puppy> its all new to me
[07:52] <greppy> puppy: if you use a different file name than "client.conf", like "private.conf" you would use "sudo service openvpn start private"
[07:52] <rigved> mattalexx: you can join #ubuntu-offtopic for general chat with ubuntu users
[07:53] <dustin> cornaljoe, its on the website
[07:53] <shcherbak> Zaca12: http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/Hardware/Clean_Hard_Drive_zero_fill
[07:53] <puppy> ok...I am not so expert but would try my best
[07:54] <greppy> puppy: one sec
[07:54] <puppy> ok
[07:55] <shcherbak> mattalexx: seek on irc.netplit.de, all info, and channel search.
[07:55] <puppy> if u please give me any link where I can see the details,then its so helpful
[07:56] <dustin> cornaljoe,#vbox is what you lookin for

[07:56] <JudeHyoe> hello
[07:56] <JudeHyoe> knock
[07:56] <greppy> puppy: that is my /etc/openvpn/client.conf file, you will need to generate the keys on your server and copy them to your client.

[08:10] <GHH> shcherbak, if it is blank /etc/fstab then is it OK?
[08:11] <greppy> JudeHyoe: unfortunately, I think you are going to need to dig through google for how to get that to work.
[08:11] <JudeHyoe> greppy: It has a i and a circle symbol which means Internet instant access.
[08:11] <greppy> JudeHyoe: you'll need to figure out what it is sending when you hit that hardware key.

[08:22] <Richie086> hey all, i am having an issue with apt-get.  I am getting stuck in a loop where apt-get is telling me to do sudo apt-get -f install to fix the issue, but when i do that it throws me an error.  Is there an apt-get command to tell apt-get to forget about trying to install the packages with dependency issues?
[08:23] <ActionParsnip> Harpal: are there any bugs logged which sound similar
[08:23] <matt__> sup everyone
[08:23] <JudeHyoe> Actionparsnip: Hi, dude. Any idea there is a red light coming out of SPDIF OUT jack?
[08:24] <vectoroc> ActionParsnip, rigved: thanks!
[08:24] <harpal> ActionParsnip: bugs logged in cisco site?
[08:24] <ActionParsnip> JudeHyoe: no idea
[08:24] <rigved> Richie086: is aptitute giving the same problems?
[08:24] <Richie086> rigved: hmm, let me try didnt think of that brb
[08:24] <rigved> vectoroc: you are welcome
[08:24] <ActionParsnip> harpal: no, for ubuntu
[08:25] <JudeHyoe> Action parsnip: I got a temporary fix by stroke amixer set IEC958 off. Any better fix?
[08:26] <JudeHyoe> what does amixer set IEC 958 off mean?
[08:26] <Richie086>  rigved looks like that may have fixed it
[08:26] <ActionParsnip> JudeHyoe: if it works then i'd use it
[08:26] <dustin> JudeHyoe, hey
[08:26] <dustin>  i found out
[08:26] <JudeHyoe> dustin, hey
[08:26] <rigved> Richie086: aptitute has better dependency resolving feature
[08:27] <JudeHyoe> dustin: what?
[08:27] <dustin> jude
[08:27] <ActionParsnip> JudeHyoe: could read: man amixer
[08:27] <JudeHyoe> dustin: what did u find out?
[08:27] <dustin> JudeHyoe, im stop typing your name but i will only be talkin to you
[08:27] <Richie086> rigved: yeah i see that, now i know, and knowing his half the battle

[08:28] <rigved> Richie086: you are welcome
[08:28] <brontosaurusrex> dustin: use pm
[08:28] <JudeHyoe> dustin: what did u find actuall?y
[08:28] <ActionParsnip> Rigved: not true ,aptitude has also been removed from a default install
[08:28] <Richie086> rigved: do you have any idea WHY it seems to work better?   it is essentially working with the same command
[08:28] <dustin> brontosaurusrex, why ? is it too crowded ?
[08:29] <rigved> ActionParsnip: you mean from 11.04?
[08:29] <lorenzo> list
[08:29] <ActionParsnip> Rigved: and maverick afaik
[08:29] <rigved> Richie086: sorry, don't know how it does so exactly..you can google it
[08:29] <Richie086> kk
[08:30] <Richie086> regardless, a million thanks
[08:30] <rigved> ActionParsnip: i have found that aptitute performs better when apt-get tries to uninstall a lot of packages...i'm using 10.04
[08:30] <rigved> ActionParsnip: thanx for the info!
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> Rigved: both will install the deps needed (if available) in any install command

[08:33] <piyushmishra> my question isn't directly related to ubuntu but is a close one. I am gonna buy a new motherboard and processor. shuld I go for 64 bit 8mb cache intel i5? I'll run 10.04 or 10.10 on it. also can I keep my current settings and applications by apt on cd? am on a 32 bit system now. also what other options do I have?
[08:33] <puppy> whenever I click any folder under places, Movie player opens and says "an error occured". And the main thing that I cannot close that movie player window
[08:34] <rigved> piyushmishra: it'll work without problems
[08:34] <ActionParsnip> Rigved: if aptitude is outright better why is it dropped? In fact, why would the Linux experts at Canonical eve
[08:34] <ActionParsnip> N include it?
[08:35] <puppy> so to open a folder like Downloads I have to open any usb drive or ext hdd mounte on from desktop and then select the folder
[08:35] <razz11> harpal: not sure it works like a breeze. hardly any config, though no GUI
[08:36] <ActionParsnip> Rigved: why do about 90% of the official docs use apt-get?
[08:37] <rigved> ActionParsnip: actually i'm wondering the same thing...maybe apt-get is better...it maybe telling me to uninstall stuff so that there are no issues, as compared to aptitude which did not uninstall...no uninstall was my opinion then...i have not had any problems yet
[08:37] <piyushmishra> rigved: I can't decide which processor and motherboard to get. any hardware tht works good with ubuntu?
[08:37] <Scott`> not really
[08:37] <Scott`> ubuntu is pretty average with all hardware
[08:37] <Scott`> windows does it better really
[08:38] <rigved> piyushmishra: afaik, almost all work
[08:38] <Flannel> rigved, ActionParsnip: please take this to #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks.
[08:38] <piyushmishra> hmm then which one do I buy? I got 20k inr for my processor, mother board and ram if needed
[08:39] <piyushmishra> flannel I guess that's for me too
[08:39] <ActionParsnip> Rigved: its not better. Its just different. I have never use aptitude and i've never had an issue with dependency
[08:39] <rigved> piyushmishra: decide based on what you want...like will you be running virtual machines and stuff, then go for a VT enabled processor with a higher L2 cache...
[08:39] <dustin> piyushmishra, just a though , if your going for windows go for the power (wine too acts like it, via giuld wars as an exterme) when using linux , its just a monsster truck ,windows a car..
[08:39] <shcherbak> Scott`: my FPS (cs) is 10% up in wine that win (apart of smoke sections)
[08:39] <Scott`> really
[08:39] <rigved> ActionParsnip: ok. point noted
[08:40] <razz11> ActionParsnip: whats the best way to grab files from the the remote system, I am using SSH, can I use SCP to pull files from the server end
[08:40] <ActionParsnip> razz11: totally
[08:40] <greppy> razz11: yes.
[08:40] <Scott`> shcherbak: if your cpu is a bottleneck then yeah that makes sense
[08:40] <Scott`> windows is heavier than ubuntu
[08:41] <ActionParsnip> razz11: nautilus can also mount sshfs :-)
[08:41] <piyushmishra> I am a php developer, will be running apache and running some tests and cron not a lot actually. on windows, I'll be playing games like starcraft 2. any suggestions?
[08:41] <JudeHyoe> a noob question: what is the default keystroke of toggle magnifier?
[08:41] <razz11> ActionParsnip: greppy: what is the command syntax
[08:42] <greppy> razz11: take a look at the man page for scp, but in general scp user@remoteserver:/path/to/remote/file /path/to/local/dir
[08:44] <ice799> hi there
[08:44] <ice799> is it possible to modify sudoers to allow a user to run a specific command with sudo without needing a password?
[08:44] <ice799> for example i want user X to be able to run sudo /usr/bin/blah without needing a password
[08:45] <JackyAlcine> ice799: add them to the root group.
[08:45] <razz11> greppy: silly, so All I had to do was swap the destination and source around
[08:45] <Keypad> .
[08:45] <ice799> JackyAlcine: i thought there was a way to tell sudo
[08:45] <Keypad> Hi, I have a realtek alc889a and I cant get my mic working for some reason.
[08:46] <ice799> "let this dude wrun just this one thing with no password sudo"
[08:46] <ice799> i THOUGHT
[08:46] <JackyAlcine> ice799: I mean, if you run sudo at least 3 times in the same terminal; it stops asking for a password.
[08:46] <JackyAlcine> ice799: Within a five-or-so minute period. Then it asks again.
[08:47] <ice799> JackyAlcine: no this is for an automated script
[08:47] <ice799> that will have no tty
[08:47] <abhinav_singh> how to create a user in ubuntu with home directory
[08:47] <JackyAlcine> ice799: If you run the script as "sudo", then it'll run as a super user
[08:47] <Eagle> Hi All :)
[08:47] <ice799> JackyAlcine: i know
[08:47] <ice799> i want that to happen
[08:48] <ice799> but i dont want to have to enter a password.
[08:48] <ice799> just for this one script.

[08:57] <Keypad> Man AMD's binary driver md5 is currupt on there site.
[08:58] <dostokhan> Eagle, there are several download accelerator for ubuntu. to integrate that with firefox you'll need flashgot addon.

[08:59] <snap_> hey can anyone explain wha is going on here: i am ssh'd into an ubuntu box, forewarding x, and i open an application on the remote box, when i try to start an identical application (they are all firefox, in this example) on the local box, it instead opens another copy on the remote box, and will every time i try to open it until i close all the remote copies...then it will opn the local copy correctly...i am only getting this when i am goin ubuntu->ubun
[09:00] <Eagle>
[09:00] <Eagle> dostokhan: How can I download this?
[09:00] <madmn> does anyone know how to fix this error when trying to share a folder from your home directory

[09:01] <bootninja> I'm having trouble printing to my ubuntu printer from windows vista.  it's telling me access denied
[09:02] <bootninja> I've already added the vista user as a user in ubuntu with the same username and password.  any ideas?
[09:03] <kerozene> could someone estimate roughly how much fun it is to upgrade 8.04 lts to 10.04 on a basic web server type system?
[09:03] <dostokhan> Eagle,  you can install the download accelerator from synaptic or software center.
[09:03] <made2shred> kerozene: alot
[09:03] <bootninja> kero, I'd reinstall from scratch rather than updating
[09:03] <ice799> JackyAlcine: I got it.
[09:04] <ice799> ok next question
[09:04] <ice799> is there a way to ask apt which package a specific file on the filesystem belongs to?
[09:04] <JackyAlcine> ice799: How? And would you mind posting your results on Ubuntu Forums so others can benefits?
[09:04] <ice799> say I have /usr/bin/x and i want to know which package /usr/bin/x came from?
[09:04] <kerozene> made2shred, bootninja: what kind of problems emerge?
[09:04] <JackyAlcine> ice799: Check the apt man pages.
[09:05] <ice799> JackyAlcine: you can set /etc/sudoers such that it will allow you to run specific scripts using sudo with no password or tty attached and nothing else
[09:05] <madmn> 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: failed to add share pictures. Error was Operation not permitted
[09:05] <ice799> so this specific user can run one thing
[09:05] <ice799> with sudo
[09:05] <ice799> and no password
[09:05] <ice799> but nothing else.
[09:05] <madmn> anyone know how to fix that error
[09:05] <FloodBot2> ice799: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:05] <made2shred> kerozene: my advice is to backup config files and stuff you need and start from scratch
[09:05] <ice799> FloodBot2: fuck you
[09:05] <kerozene> made2shred: noted, definitely :) I'm just trying to understand what might happen
[09:05] <ice799> JackyAlcine: yeah i'll read the man page i was just hoping some one would know so i didnt have to
[09:05] <madmn> i am trying to fileshare and i get this message
[09:05] <madmn> 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: failed to add share pictures. Error was Operation not permitted
[09:05] <made2shred> kerozene: anything can happen. shouldn't be that much trouble
[09:06] <JackyAlcine> ice799: heh
[09:06] <bootninja> kero, generally just package inconsistencies and stability problems
[09:06] <Carsten-> Hello :) seems i have some broken repositories, I get an error as listed in this pastebin: http://pastebin.com/P3Lb6Qux What's the best way to fix this?
[09:06] <kerozene> made2shred, bootninja: are problems likely to appear straight away or could they hide for a few weeks?
[09:07] <Eagle> ice799:  FloodBot2: A  Chill!  Take it easy :-))
[09:07] <bootninja> probably right away, it just depends on how often you use any affected software
[09:07] <made2shred> kerozene: straight away. and others will be in old software
[09:07] <madmn> can anyone help me with a file sharing question ?
[09:07] <kerozene> ok, thanks :)
[09:08] <dostokhan> madmn,  you're sharing files over local network(lan)?
[09:08] <madmn> yes
[09:08] <dostokhan> madmn,  have you installed samba?
[09:08] <madmn> i get this error
[09:08] <madmn> 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: failed to add share pictures. Error was Operation not permitted
[09:08] <madmn> yes i am trying to share folders in my home directory
[09:09] <bootninja> anybody know why I might get an access denied error when trying to print to linux from vista?
[09:09] <madmn> i can do it from one user
[09:09] <madmn> but not another
[09:10] <kbrosnan> snap_: you can only run one instance of Firefox at the same time. if you need more than one instance use "firefox -P -no-remote"
[09:10] <madmn> dostokhan,
[09:10] <madmn> you still there
[09:11] <dostokhan> madmn,  you mean, you can share with one user but not another from the same machine?
[09:11] <madmn> okay i have a bill home directory and have shared files from that home directory
[09:11] <tennessean> houston
[09:11] <madmn> but when i do it from my madmn home it comes up with that error
[09:12] <madmn> and both users are on this ubuntu box
[09:12] <bootninja> does the madmn user have all the same permissions/group ownerships as the other user?
[09:12] <madmn> i think so
[09:13] <madmn> not sure where to check though
[09:13] <madmn> what should i be checking for in general
[09:13] <dostokhan> madmn, both user administrator?
[09:14] <madmn> no one is user the other is admin
[09:14] <GHH> How to enable root so that i can Login gdm interface?
[09:15] <Carsten-> I have some PPA's that have not cleanly been removed. Where can I find the repository text file so I may remove them manually... for the record, it's not /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:15] <Carsten-> Is not present in that file.
[09:15] <thauriswulfa> QUESTION:how to give some user the permissions equivalent to root?
[09:15] <madmn> do i have to do it as a user not admin ?
[09:16] <madmn> going to check some settings
[09:16] <madmn> brb
[09:18] <thauriswulfa> QUESTION:how to give some user the permissions equivalent to root?
[09:18] <ilon> are there any development doing in the direction of making it easier to enable multiple monitor setups, i.e. more than 2 monitors
[09:19] <DThought> thauriswulfa: add him to the admin group - then he can do "sudo"
[09:19] <madmn> so now i am getting this error
[09:19] <GHH> How to enable root so that i can Login GUI as General user?
[09:19] <madmn> 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error Permission denied
[09:19] <madmn> You do not have permission to create a usershare. Ask your administrator to grant you permissions to create a share.
[09:19] <madmn> whats that mean
[09:20] <madmn> or how do i allow a user to create a user share
[09:20] <dostokhan> madmn,  that means current user doesn't have permission.
[09:21] <DThought> madmn: i suspect adding the user to group sambashare would help
[09:21] <sacarlson> madmn: you can change your sudoer of a user to require no password,  that's my method of giving a user root ability without presence
[09:21] <Carsten-> I have some PPA's that have not cleanly been removed. Where can I find the repository text file so I may remove them manually... for the record, it's not /etc/apt/sources.list   ?
[09:22] <madmn> i should be able to just give that user permission or a usershare somehow
[09:23] <Carsten-> guys ive been asking my questions for 10 mins, I understand if you dont know or just dont want to answer it, but could you please acknowledge the question atleast if you cant?
[09:24] <redPanda>  Carsten- There are ppa purge if you haven't tried that. It's the only thing off my head.
[09:24] <dostokhan> madmn,  let me check something. brb.
[09:24] <sacarlson> madmn: it could be that you are trying to share an ntfs file system that has no permisions to change,  the only way to change that in that case would be at mount time
[09:24] <Carsten-> ppa purge did not work. its what started the problem
[09:25] <Carsten-> i mainly just need to know where the database text file is for ppa's so I can remove it
[09:26] <madmn> is there no way i can do it then
[09:26] <madmn> is was so easy for the first user
[09:27] <sacarlson> madmn: who owns the files you are trying to share?
[09:27] <madmn> there are in the users home directory
[09:27] <madmn> this one - madmn has like a pictures directory
[09:27] <sacarlson> madmn: it maters not where they are who owns them?
[09:28] <sacarlson> madmn: and who is trying to share them?
[09:28] <madmn> if there in the home directory then i would assume that user owns them
[09:28] <madmn> i am doing it with that user
[09:28] <lee__> hello!
[09:28] <lee__> my computer GPU die!...
[09:29] <madmn> so trying to share madmn's folder pictures logged in as madmn
[09:29] <dostokhan> madmn, run this command without the quotes "id madmn"
[09:29] <madmn> but in my users bill home i can share that pictures directory and it works fine
[09:30] <madmn> shane@madmn-desktop:~$ id madmn
[09:30] <madmn> uid=1000(madmn) gid=1000(madmn) groups=1000(madmn),4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),46(plugdev),105(lpadmin),119(admin),122(sambashare)
[09:30] <madmn> shane@madmn-desktop:~$
[09:31] <madmn> i should log back in as madmn and do that right
[09:31] <madmn> right now i am logged in as shane
[09:31] <madmn> id shane says the same thing though
[09:32] <ronr__> Hi everyone. Fairly new to Ubuntu here. I've installed it on my media center, and using it on my TV. Is there any simlpe way to make all the fonts bigger saw that I could actually read from the sofa?
[09:32] <sacarlson> madmn: you won't be able to share madmn files from the shane account
[09:33] <madmn> i understand that won't work
[09:33] <madmn> right now i am in the shane account
[09:33] <elky> ronr__, try pressing the control key and the + key at the same time. It's a common shortcut.
[09:33] <madmn> and when i try it in the shane account it does not work either
[09:33] <sacarlson> madmn: then maybe try share one of shanes directorys
[09:34] <madmn> i did
[09:34] <madmn> same error
[09:34] <madmn> net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: failed to add share pictures. Error was Operation not permitted
[09:34] <dostokhan> madmn, the file/folder your'e trying to share, what's it's permission say? which group and user it belongs to?
[09:35] <madmn> how do i tell that
[09:35] <dostokhan> madmn, right click on it and from properties you can see.
[09:36] <lillobyte91> salvee a tutti
[09:36] <madmn> owner shane-Shane
[09:36] <lillobyte91> c'è qualche utente italiano?
[09:36] <greppy> !it | lillobyte91
[09:37] <dostokhan> madmn,  and you're having problem sharing this file/folder from your "shane" account. but you can share files/folders when you're logged in as another user?
[09:38] <madmn> yes but i got something to work
[09:38] <madmn> i made a new folder and it lets me share that new folder
[09:38] <madmn> but not the pictures one the system made when the user was created
[09:39] <made2shred> madmn: chmod?
[09:39] <sacarlson> madmn: try go into System>administration>user & groups>manage gruops>properties  then check all the boxes and see if it works then
[09:39] <barabashka> hi . I want invisible background in terminal-screenlets. How I do it?
[09:40] <ronr__> elky: wasn't talking about the browser zoom-in. I'm familiar with that. I'm talking about all the system fonts.
[09:40] <JackyAlcine> ronr_: what's the issue?
[09:40] <sacarlson> madmn: just because you own the directory doesn't mean you own the files in it
[09:40] <elky> ronr__, oooh. sorry. system>appearances>customise iirc
[09:41] <elky> er, system>preferences>appearances
[09:41] <madmn> so how can i change that
[09:42] <madmn> how do i stop users from using a certain directory
[09:42] <dostokhan> madmn,  try this "chown -R madmn:madmn /home/madmn/Pictures"
[09:42] <wyclif> madmn: lock them out of the directory in question using permissions: chmod
[09:42] <madmn> as what user ?
[09:42] <sacarlson> madmn: did adding yourself to the groups not fix it?
[09:43] <barabashka> Can you halp me?
[09:43] <Dice-Man> hello
[09:43] <Dice-Man> barabashka: sure what is the problem ?
[09:43] <barabashka> Dice-Man: litle problem
[09:44] <sacarlson> madmn: the user you plan to use to share the files,  mater not what user as long as they are a member of the group
[09:45] <shum> Can someone help with this?  What packages do I need to install/what to a need to change to enable hardware acceleration?
[09:45] <madmn> but right now bill sees all folders in windows 7 no matter what user makes the share
[09:45] <shum> *do I
[09:45] <Dice-Man> barabashka: come on ask your question
[09:45] <Dice-Man> barabashka: no need spend more time in useless words
[09:45] <sacarlson> madmn: I was afread of that windows 7 come into the picture so it's probly an ntfs file system
[09:45] <Dice-Man> barabashka: let's go the thing directly
[09:46] <madmn> yeah but i should be able to let him see certain folders and not others correct
[09:46] <origins> I want to record the total volumn of in and out traffic on a net interface (specifically a mobile broadband connection) over a period of days. Anyone know a simple tool?
[09:46] <shum> origins: wireshark can probably do that
[09:47] <sacarlson> madmn: that a different problem,  one problem at a time please
[09:47] <llutz> origins: vnstat
[09:47] <madmn> ok sorry
[09:47] <madmn> so should i log back into the madmn account
[09:47] <madmn> or should i stay in shane ?
[09:47] <origins> shum, llutz: thanks. i looks now.
[09:47] <classical_> what software can i use to record my desktop ?  i want lighter one :)))
[09:47] <llutz> origins: just the volumn or the content too?
[09:48] <origins> llutz: Just volume. Think I.m getting screwed on my allowance.
[09:48] <sacarlson> madmn: I would use a user that is part of the sudo group
[09:48] <dustin> recocdmydesktop
[09:48] <llutz> origins: so forget wireshark
[09:48] <barabashka> I can't chang option background in terminal-screenlets. I want invisible background in terminal-screenlets. sorry i bad understend en.
[09:48] <madmn> okay brb
[09:48] <dustin> classical_, recocdmydesktop
[09:49] <origins> vnstat looks just right. Thanks,
[09:49] <madmn> okay i am back in as madmn
[09:49] <ronr__> elky: thanks. do you know how I can change the font that is used in nautilus? it seems that all the changes I've made don't affect it.
[09:49] <madmn> so what should i do
[09:49] <shum> can anyone help me with my graphics problem?
[09:50] <HugoKuo> how to attach a patch to netcfg ?
[09:51] <madmn> what command do i type again
[09:51] <madmn> the chmod one
[09:51] <razz11> which one is the preferred rsync frontend, back in time or lucky backup
[09:51] <barabashka> Dice-Man: how I do it?
[09:51] <paranoidi> running ubuntu server, it seems that the latest kernel packages boot in non-text mode (1024x768) .. how can I stop this? My 8" TFT does NOT support it :(
[09:51] <dostokhan> madmn,  try this two commands one after another: "sudo chown -R madmn:madmn /home/madmn/Pictures" and "sudo chmod -R u+rwX /home/madmn/Pictures"
[09:52] <sacarlson> madmn: madmn: try go into System>administration>user & groups>manage gruops>properties  then check all the boxes and see if it works then
[09:52] <Dice-Man> barabashka: look at the screenlet properties ?
[09:52] <elky> ronr__, hrm, application font does but it might take a while, or you might need to logout and log back in again
[09:52] <Dice-Man> right clik on it ?
[09:52] <shum> HugoKuo: if you have the netcfg source and a .patch file generally you'd open a terminal, go into the source directory and type something like 'patch -p1 < name-of-patch.patch
[09:52] <dostokhan> madmn,  go to System>
[09:53] <HugoKuo> thanks let me try it shum
[09:53] <elky> ronr__, the application font change will take quite a lot of time to hit all the applications open
[09:53] <ronr__> elky: I see. ok, I'll wait and see if it changes :)
[09:53] <madmn> its still not doing the pictures directory
[09:54] <madmn> i think cause it was created when the user was created right?
[09:54] <dostokhan> madmn,  go to System>Administration>Samba and preferences>samba user. see if madmn is there or not.
[09:54] <user> oi
[09:54] <sacarlson> dostokhan: madmn: dostokhan method might also work if it's not an ntfs file system
[09:54] <user> alifia
[09:54] <ronr__> elky: ah, it works in a new window, great. thanks.
[09:54] <barabashka> Dice-Man: yes, I chang properties of colours but don't work it
[09:54] <elky> ronr__, yeah, nautilus is annoying :P
[09:54] <madmn> i don't see samba in there
[09:55] <dustin> DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO REMOTE DESKTOP SETUP,, from htc evo 4g?
[09:55] <razz11> anyone use rsync, just need a good front end, any suggestions. I am looking at backintime or luckybackup
[09:55] <madmn> under preferences
[09:55] <sacarlson> madmn: just check all the boxes as instructed and you will also be a part of samba
[09:56] <ronr__> elky: well, I'm still trying to get the hang of it. at work I use Fedora, and the rest of my computers are windows. it's just that htpc's require special tweaking :)
[09:56] <dustin> !remote desktop|dustin
[09:56] <dostokhan> madmn,  in samba go to preferences>samba user.
[09:56] <dustin> !sever|dustin
[09:56] <dostokhan> sacarlson, i believe he's already part of samba.
[09:57] <madmn> i see no samba at all
[09:57] <sacarlson> dostokhan: yes I do too but I think he attepts to share files the don't belong to him in the dir he tries to share
[09:57] <madmn> but all the users have check marks in them all three users
[09:58] <sacarlson> dostokhan: the other posibility is he tries to share files that don't belong to anyone or root since they are monted from an ntfs system they won't be changeable
[09:58] <madmn> i don't see anything for samba at all but i do believe its installed
[09:59] <ronr__> elky: no doubt, font size 18 does the trick :p
[09:59] <elky> ronr__, :D
[09:59] <dostokhan> madmn,  two ques. tell me the directory you're trying to share. you can't find system>administration>samba?
[09:59] <ronr__> now I need to find out how to change the clock to work in 24hour mode and not 12hour mode.
[09:59] <madmn> nope
[09:59] <madmn> i see nothing there
[09:59] <bullgard4> Is there an English IT term "to telephone home" meaning a computer program is reporting back to the program manufacturer some usage details of the user of the program? Or what is the technical term for this?
[09:59] <madmn> no samba
[09:59] <elky> ronr__, right click it > preferences
[10:00] <sacarlson> madmn: maybe this user isn't in the samba group
[10:00] <madmn> i think when i did id madmn it was

[10:01] <opc_0de> Hi, Can anyone please tell me how to determine whether the CPU is 32-bit or 64-bit, I am running Ubuntu 10.10.
[10:01] <madmn> no these files are on the ubuntu server which i am on right now
[10:01] <ronr__> elky: ok, that's just embarassing :)
[10:01] <madmn> in the home directory
[10:01] <snimavat> ?
[10:01] <elky> ronr__, you're used to fighting for this stuff ;)
[10:01] <madmn> there is a pictures directory
[10:02] <madmn> i want to share that with certain users
[10:02] <dostokhan> madmn, did you try the command chmod and chown i wrote before?
[10:02] <sacarlson> madmn: I think my original quick dirty method to verfy you are not in some needed group and just become a part of all of them would take secounds
[10:02] <madmn> can you do it again i am in the sudo account now
[10:02] <ronr__> elky: probably :) now, I may ask for blasphemy, but is there a way to avoid being asked for my password every time I want to install updates?
[10:02] <snimavat> Can any one help me partitioning my new HDD
[10:03] <madmn> whats the command again
[10:03] <shum> opc_0de: uname -a will tell you whether you have 32bit or 64bit ubuntu installed, it'll either have x86 or x86_64
[10:03] <dostokhan> madmn, follow sacarlson
[10:03] <elky> ronr__, no sorry.
[10:03] <sacarlson> madmn: if you want to share with cirtain users maybe ssh share would be easier
[10:03] <ronr__> maybe I should change my password to something simpler then :p
[10:03] <alifia> oi
[10:03] <madmn> okay tell me how then
[10:03] <alifia> oi
[10:03] <madmn> i don't care what method i use
[10:04] <multiplatinum> hello, i tried a command to change my computer name but now it's defaulting to "localhost" instead of the name i wanted, any help?
[10:04] <opc_0de> shum: hmm, but it's possible that you can have a 32 bit OS running on a 64-bit system right? So i was asking if there was a more like a hardware info I can read somewhere
[10:04] <sacarlson> madmn: but you want to share with windows I"m not sure what they support in ssh
[10:04] <ronr__> I also have his annoying issue with VLC where sometimes I get a second-pause in sound, but I guess this is not the right place to ask about it.
[10:05] <sacarlson> madmn: for ssh share it's as simple as sudo apt-get install ssh
[10:05] <multiplatinum> hello, i tried a command to change my computer name but now it's defaulting to "localhost" instead of the name i wanted, any help?
[10:05] <madmn> i can see the ubuntu server in the network list and then i see this box i double click on the server and up pops the folders i have shared
[10:05] <Dice-Man> barabashka: check out opacity
[10:05] <opc_0de> multiplatinum: you mean hostname? edit /etc/hostname and update it with the new name.
[10:05] <ronr__> elky: what about not asking me for my password every time I come back frmo idle? is that possible?
[10:05] <elky> ronr__, you can try. i recommend first turning off the blingy stuff in appearances
[10:06] <madmn> done i installed ssh
[10:06] <multiplatinum> opc_0de,  i've done that but it got messed up somehow? :S
[10:06] <sacarlson> madmn: so it works now?
[10:06] <elky> ronr__, sure, make screensaver not lock the screen
[10:06] <madmn> nope same error

[10:08] <made2shred> elky: lol we both said about pastebins at the same time
[10:08] <barabashka> Dice-Man: I chang opacity but no effect (0-255)
[10:08] <multiplatinum> opc_0de,  i did this command: gksudo gedit /etc/hosts /etc/hostname
[10:08] <ronr__> elky: I've already set it to 'None' before. Not sure what that has to do with the sound pauses though (unless you weren't referring to that).
[10:08] <madmn> i did the ssh install
[10:09] <multiplatinum> opc_0de,  i changed every old name to the new one, rebooted, and now it's messed up :S
[10:09] <madmn> like you told me too
[10:09] <opc_0de> Messedup how? what's changed?
[10:09] <elky> ronr__, well i don't know what your processor or anything is like, it was just a guess.
[10:09] <ronr__> hmm, what's the default irc client in gnome? at work I use kde.
[10:10] <puppy> why movie player get opening when clicking folder under "palces"
[10:10] <sacarlson> madmn: if you want to move to ssh share you won't be using samba any more,  you would (from another ubuntu)  go to Places>Connect to sever>ssh
[10:10] <ronr__> elky: it's atom :p
[10:10] <henrik__> will i lose my data if i do "sudo do-release-upgrade"? from 8.10 to 9.04
[10:10] <madmn> i would rather use samba share if i could
[10:10] <elky> ronr__, it's the one in empathy. i recommend either installing konversation or kopete if you want the ones you have at work already, or xchat if you want to try something new
[10:10] <madmn> if there is a way to get to to do what i want
[10:10] <abhinav_singh> how to assign sudo privileges to other users
[10:10] <sacarlson> madmn: then you would have to continue with adding you user to all groups
[10:10] <multiplatinum> opc_0de,  when i log in, it says "Ubuntu 10.10" instead of a computer name (old or new), and when i open a terminal for example, it says @localhost instead of the new name, also, when i delete something, i can only empty the trash via the applet on my panel, nautilus blocks access :S
[10:11] <ronr__> elky: konversation it is then. fairly comfortable with it by now.
[10:11] <madmn> is there a fast way to add myself to all the groups then ?
[10:11] <elky> ronr__, yeah, atoms can have some fun with decoding HD stuff on the fly if it's not the one with the fancy nvidia stuff
[10:12] <sacarlson> madmn: secounds as I instructed you before
[10:12] <ronr__> elky: obviously, it is an ION based machine otherwise I wouldn't even try running HD on it.
[10:12] <ronr__> is there a shortcut to open a terminal window?
[10:12] <sacarlson> madmn: should I send it a third time?
[10:12] <oCean> abhinav_singh: it's on the wiki http://goo.gl/TZfPX
[10:12] <madmn> please
[10:12] <elky> ronr__, then im not sure what it is, sorry
[10:12] <ronr__> sorry, really a newbie here :p
[10:12] <IchGuckLive> Hi all i Generated yesterday a packege from a SVN Trunk, Cmake ,make mackage sudo install! -> now today there are changes to the SVN do i have to remove the packet from synaptic first and delete the packet in the generated Folder AND then generate new by cmake
[10:12] <madmn> i must have missed the post in this window
[10:12] <llutz> abhinav_singh: adjust /etc/suoders or add them to "admin" group for full sudo-access
[10:12] <elky> ronr__, nah, you're doing well
[10:13] <llutz> sudoers*
[10:13] <ronr__> elky: that's ok. it may be the alsa drivers I've installed. there was an update last night, so it may have fixed the pause issues.
[10:13] <galanakis> I'm looking for a tiling window manager, what's easy to get working?
[10:13] <opc_0de> multiplatinum: hmm, Yeah that's messed up!!, Can you paste following data - 1) new hostname, 2)content of { /etc/hostname , /etc/hosts} on pastebin and paste the link here?
[10:13] <sacarlson> madmn: this is the third and last time I'm sending this: go to System>Administration>Samba and preferences>samba user. see if madmn is there or not.
[10:14] <multiplatinum> ok opc_0de
[10:14] <ronr__> assuming I'm not confusing alsa with something else :p
[10:14] <madmn> i dont have a samba under preferences
[10:14] <sacarlson> madmn: sorry wrong line
[10:14] <elky> ronr__, alsa is sound stuff, yes
[10:14] <sacarlson> madmn: I have to backup and find the correct line this time
[10:15] <multiplatinum> opc_0de,  how do i retrieve "new hostname"? or are you just asking for the new name it should display?
[10:15] <ronr__> elky: good, I'm getting the hang of things. there's so much more tweaking that needs to be done.
[10:16] <mrintegrity> hi, when i print a file with numbers in it, some numbers are printed as a null character []. It doesn't matter if the file is in pdf format or plain text. Nor does it seem to matter if I save it with ASCII or utf encoding. How can i fix this?
[10:16] <tasse> how can i open port 443?
[10:16] <elky> ronr__, meh, you're talking about computers, the tweaking is /never/ done :D
[10:16] <jmkgreen> So a few of our servers display this "System information disabled due to load higher than 1" upon login despite their load being 0.4 (etc). Any ideas?
[10:16] <ronr__> elky: true dat ;)
[10:16] <opc_0de> multiplatinum: "new hostname" is the name the new hostname you want your computer to be updated to
[10:16] <sacarlson> madmn: try go into System>administration>user & groups>manage gruops>properties  then check all the boxes and see if it works then
[10:16] <multiplatinum> ok opc_0de ill pm you for that
[10:16] <ronr__> I need to setup firefox nightly builds, and copy the profile from the other computer.
[10:16] <mrintegrity> tasse: on ubuntu, it's open by default just like all other ports
[10:16] <opc_0de> multiplatinum, : ok
[10:16] <tasse> hm
[10:17] <lestat> hi
[10:17] <lestat> i'd like to limit the bandwidth used by apt, any idea how to achieve that ?
[10:17] <ronr__> and I want to set up XBMC which seems to have loads of options in it as well.
[10:17] <tasse> i just tried to use ubuntu one but it does not synchronise, its always "Synchronising..."
[10:17] <tasse> but nothing happens
[10:18] <tasse> and i read, that i have to open port 443..
[10:19] <mrintegrity> tasse: ubuntu one is exceptionally slow. try dropbox instead for now, it works better untill they fix uone
[10:19] <sacarlson> madmn: did you get it this time the THIRD time?
[10:19] <tasse> same issue with dropbox
[10:19] <madmn> yes going through them right now
[10:19] <madmn> almost done
[10:19] <tasse> thats point, why i tried ubunto one ;)
[10:19] <mrintegrity> tasse: oh ok
[10:19] <DThought> lestat: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-20342.html
[10:19] <tasse> couldnt establish a secure connection with dropbox, so i thought ill try ubuntoone instead..
[10:20] <ronr__> elky: anyways, I think I'm gonna have lunch now. thanks for all the help and I may bug you again later ;)
[10:20] <elky> ronr__, cya, good luck :)
[10:20] <numbfall> hi
[10:21] <jmkgreen> is there a server version of this channel?
[10:21] <tasse> got any idea mrintegrity ? i'm behind a vpn .
[10:21] <DThought> lestat: the apt.conf way seems the cleanest to me
[10:21] <DJones> jmkgreen: #ubuntu-server
[10:21] <mrintegrity> tasse: probably your vpn service blocks it... ?
[10:21] <sacarlson> madmn: ok and I also found you can share in window 7 with ssh http://superuser.com/questions/67551/mounting-ssh-sftp-shares-on-windows-7
[10:22] <jmkgreen> DJones: ta
[10:22] <jetole> Hey guys. I use gnubiff to check for new email and it lets you pick any icon you want for read mail and new mail. I picked the following two icons which are included in ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10: /usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-dark/status/24/indicator-messages-new.svg and /usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-dark/status/24/indicator-messages.svg. In ubuntu 10.04 these worked fine with the default gnome dark theme that comes with ubuntu however in 10.10 the transparent ...
[10:22] <numbfall> i removed my ubuntu drive manually, now i cant boot into windows from other drive, grub goes rescue "no such device".. any idea how i can boot into windows
[10:22] <jetole> ... part of the icon is appearing white on the gnome panel. Does anyone know how I can fix this or if I even can? Should I file a bug report with ubuntu?
[10:22] <tasse> yeah thats why i installed windows to try it - and there it works [same vpn]
[10:22] <mrintegrity> numbfall: boot the windows install cd and reinstall the windows bootloader. alternatively reinstall grub configuration from the ubuntu cd
[10:23] <tasse> and my mate, that uses the same vpn next to me and also ubuntu 10.04 doesnt have the problem
[10:23] <mrintegrity> tasse: ok, sorry but i don't know
[10:23] <sacarlson> madmn: so that's the solution for your secound problem with ssh you can only share with a user you have an account with
[10:23] <tasse> hm ok thanks..
[10:23] <mrintegrity> tasse: check your firewall policy (iptables if you have it set up)
[10:23] <jetole> tasse: I missed your original question. What VPN are you using?
[10:23] <tasse> dont use a firewall
[10:24] <tasse> using the vpn of my university
[10:24] <madmn> okay all the boxes are checked now
[10:24] <madmn> should i restart
[10:24] <madmn> or log out and back in ?
[10:24] <sacarlson> madmn: it should work now without reboot
[10:25] <sacarlson> madmn: did you get my message about ssh and windows 7?
[10:25] <abhinav_singh> i created the user with out assigning the password ...how can i set the password from him now ?
[10:25] <vincent> what exactly is this new sudo security update all about?
[10:25] <madmn> yes i will try that if all else fails
[10:25] <Guest35488> oh no, I'm Guest 35488!
[10:25] <madmn> but i want to try this first if i can and it works
[10:26] <madmn> should i need to log out and back in after checking all those boxes
[10:26] <Zvrk> abhinav_singh, gnome ?
[10:27] <sacarlson> madmn: I don't think so it should work you are now a part of all those groups
[10:27] <tasse> and iptables -L just gives Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
[10:27] <tasse> target     prot opt source               destination   [same for INPUT/FORWARD] @ mrintegrity
[10:27] <Zvrk> abhinav_singh, using  gnome ?
[10:27] <madmn> okay its still not working so i must be doing something else wrong
[10:27] <numbfall> mrintegrity: thanks .. i'll use the live ubuntu usb to reconfigure grub.
[10:27] <madmn> still the same error
[10:27] <sacarlson> madmn: if it still fails then it was my other thought it's an ntfs file system
[10:27] <madmn> i should see samba under system somewhere though right ?
[10:28] <madmn> the files are on the linux box though
[10:28] <madmn> but yeah i could be

[10:42] <erUSUL> snimavat: boot/grub will be installed in the second disk where you install ubuntu.
[10:42] <beginer> http://www.top500.org/stats/list/36/os
[10:42] <beginer> hey what is this showing??
[10:42] <erUSUL> snimavat: if you really want you can install the grub loader in the second disk and use bios to choose what disk to boot
[10:42] <madmn> snimavat, you probably want to install windows first then install ubuntu
[10:43] <erUSUL> snimavat: i do ot see the point of it though
[10:43] <sacarlson> madmn: I guess we could see  sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit
[10:43] <snimavat> I want a seperate grub partition
[10:43] <madmn> thats the way i did mine and it multi boots for you
[10:43] <bullgard4> llutz: Excellent! --  Thank you very much for your help.
[10:44] <erUSUL> snimavat: first: there is no such thing as "seperate grub partition"; you mean separate /boot/ partition; second: why?
[10:44] <snimavat> here;s my thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1672613
[10:44] <snimavat> I may want to install more os later like centos
[10:44] <madmn> http://paste.ubuntu.com/556477/
[10:45] <snimavat> yes, seperate /boot partition of 60 MB
[10:45] <madmn> sacarlson: http://paste.ubuntu.com/556477/
[10:45] <snimavat> so that i can uninstall and install any os without disturbing grub
[10:45] <kaushal> hi
[10:45] <sacarlson> madmn: I got it
[10:45] <madmn> cool
[10:45] <kaushal> is there a way like notifier in gmail
[10:45] <snimavat> erUSUL you get my point?
[10:46] <kaushal> wherein i get notified if someone has responded to my email
[10:46] <kaushal> in ubuntu 10.10
[10:46] <sacarlson> madmn: so I assume what you try to share is the files that were in the windows partition sda1?
[10:46] <snimavat> erUSUL??
[10:46] <abhinav_singh> Zvrk yes
[10:46] <erUSUL> snimavat: then do it; use a separate boot partition
[10:46] <kaushal> I get bombarded with 1000 of emails in my gmail account
[10:47] <kaushal> so the only one which is addressed to me
[10:47] <snimavat> erUSUL: but, will /boot partition work in second HDD ?
[10:47] <kaushal> I get notified
[10:47] <madmn> sacarlson nope i don't think so
[10:47] <erUSUL> snimavat: yes; why not?
[10:47] <snimavat> erUSUL: i already have win on first HDD
[10:47] <madmn> when i putty into my box i see my files here on my ubuntu server
[10:47] <snimavat> erUSUL: will I have to change the bios to boot from second drive?
[10:48] <snimavat> and if i change bios, will win work?
[10:48] <snimavat> erUSUL
[10:48] <sacarlson> madmn: well last thing to look at cd into the dir you plan to share and ls -l | pastebinit
[10:48] <madmn> snimavat: i am pretty sure that windows has to be on the first partition
[10:48] <snimavat> its in the c drive of first HDD
[10:48] <erUSUL> snimavat: if you install the grub loader in the first drive you do not have to touch the bios
[10:49] <snimavat> the second HDD isnt partitioned yet
[10:49] <ox3a> i am getting plymouth error
[10:49] <erUSUL> snimavat: in case it is not clear by now; the grub loader can be in the first disk and the boot partition in the second one
[10:50] <snimavat> grub loaded and boot partition, arent both same?

[10:53] <madmn> if i make a new folder called temp i can share it with nothing in it
[10:53] <abhinav_singh> hmmm brother Zvrk
[10:54] <madmn> same result

[10:54] <Zvrk> abhinav_singh, no problems
[10:54] <erUSUL> snimavat: i do not now what the question is. what you want to do is possible. where is the problem then? go ahead and do it. ( althought maybe 60 MiB for boot is too small )
[10:54] <madmn> that way i have them
[10:54] <nickcv> hi guys, got a problem… i have web server with sftp, everything is working file… i have two usergroups who use sftp: sftponly and sftpslave… i want to change the umask of just the users of sftpslave so that they always upload file with 775 permissions, there's a way to do that? i found a lot of tutorial to change all the users umask, but nothing to apply just to the match in the sshd_config
[10:54] <sacarlson> madmn: same result won't it return the owner and group of the dir?
[10:54] <madmn> nope
[10:54] <madmn> not the way you told me to type it
[10:55] <erUSUL> snimavat: and btw; you do not need a separate fat partition for file sharing. linux supports ntfs just fine
[10:55] <sacarlson> madmn: ok my mistake ls-l -d ~/Pictures
[10:56] <nickcv> setting specific umask just for a directory would solve the problem as well
[10:56] <sacarlson> madmn: ls -l -d ~/Pictures  I missed the space there
[10:56] <madmn> command not found
[10:57] <snimavat> erUSUL: thnx
[10:57] <snimavat> is /boot and grub loader different ?
[10:58] <madmn> sacarlson : http://paste.ubuntu.com/556482/
[10:58] <snimavat> erUSUL: /boot partition = dedicated grub partition, isnt it?
[10:58] <ne2k> snimavat: /boot doesn't have to be a dedicated partition
[10:58] <erUSUL> snimavat: yes; grub loader gets installed in the disk mbr ( a tiny 512 bytes area ) once it runs it goes and look in the /boot/grub/ partition for what it needs to continue booting the machine
