soundray, I am unable to retain the setting changes on my pen. I first installed ubuntu and after boot network does not work. I set it up and it works fine. I reboot and all is gone back to the original settings. What should I know?

can anybody tell me what the problem might be when it says "failed to initiate HAL" when x loads

hi all, looking for app to show tcp statistics for sessions.

hmm still no luck
how do i use dpkg and auto download and install the missing deps?

so you installed ubuntu *to* a pendrive?

trying to install AcetoneISO2_1.0-all.deb

yes I ddi
did

thanks

yw

was it a nice 16g pen driver :-)

have you followed any instructions to do this? Please post a link if you have.

hi all

hi. i have a problem. i have a Sis900 lan card but isn`t identified by my kubuntu .

GizDrak, no, just a simple and cheep 2GB with a lot of free space to use :-)
soundray, http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/02/12/usb-ubuntu-tutorial-for-linux-users/

well that is good because booting any pen drive above 4g is a pain :-/

only difference I used the latest release of ubuntu
GizDrak, I see

i'm not sure what kind of stuff i can disable..

Is it a bug? Feature? Can I get rid of it at all? All I need is a "minimize everything" button which preferably does nothing if everything is already minimized.

Me=N00b, just a quick Q, in System Monitor-File Systems, should I be able to see Filesystem because I think that I used to be able to but I messed around with fstab to mount my windows drive

GizDrak, although I have been told it is not good to use a pendrive beause down the road it will break. True or false? I do not knwo.

Ar-Pharazon, some windowmanagers have a 'show desktop' icon ya can add to the panels. Not sure if gnome does however.

you can look up a short description for most services in a terminal with 'apt-cache show packagename' (packagename is the same as the service name in most cases)

this is true if you do not control the read/write to the pen drive you could wear it out quickly. flash drivers where never made for continues read/write access.

Dr_willis, it does, thing is it works as a toggle. Any way to fix that?

Ar-Pharazon, not sure why thats a problem.. fix what exactly?

the casper-rw system is designed to extend the lifetime of your pendrive as much as possible. Apparently, it is also the thing that isn't working in your setup.

7.0 Ethernet controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] SiS900 PCI Fast Et hernet (rev
any solution ?

GizDrak, 7zip said /usr/bin/p7zip: Arena106.exe: unknown suffix -- ignored

Dr_willis, I'll just copy/paste it: See the problem I'm having with "Show Desktop" is it seems to work as some sort of freaky dual desktop thing. I show desktop (minimizing all windows) do some stuff on the desktop, then restore a window manually, do some stuff in it, then click show desktop again expecting to minimize them all but instead they all get restored.

soundray, what should I do in your openion? I am out of ideas. I can modify the /etc/resolv.conf file but I miss the other eth0 file and do not know why the system at boot overrights it

I haven't used casper myself, so I don't know how to troubleshoot, but I would start by looking for any errors on the screen during the shutdown.

soundray, too bad. It seems I am not able to. Even if I hold F2

it may help to remove 'quiet splash' from the kernel boot options, if you have them.

I see

Ar-Pharazon, id say go ask in #gnome - you want show desktop to not function as a 'toggle' it seems.
Ar-Pharazon, i dont use it what way

soundray, it would be in grub, perhaps, in grub.conf?

Dr_willis Exactly. I'll go ask there then.

one sec let me go download that and see what type of compression it may be using

well, the page you linked me to mentioned lilo, in which case you have to change /etc/lilo.conf (/boot/grub/menu.lst otherwise).

I see
correct

I somehow managed to make python unavailable.. /usr/bin/python links to python2.5, but python2.5 links to python2.4 and I dont understand why.. :s

thanks for now
soundray, thanks for now.

is there some way of doing so i can download more than one torrent at the time trough bittorrent
??

GizDrak, thks ;-)

hope it helps.

run more than one torrent program?

use a different client maybe

Huffameg, could use an more advanced torrent client

The official Bittorent client only supports one torrent, use a different client.

i just tried to install ubuntu 7.04 on a asus a8v deluxe, 2 hdds attached to ata one to sata. the installer hangs as soon as it loads the partitioning tool. i tried the graphical live system and the textbased alternate, same error. i suppose its due to the partitioning tool not knowing what to do with my sata controller which by the way i dont wanna use for rhe ubunto partition, so i guess my question is how do i teach the installer sata or

should i be able to see my filesystem in system monitor cos I only see my windowsDrive

May someone help me? I'm having troubles booting from the Ubuntu Live CD.

I somehow managed to make python unavailable.. /usr/bin/python links to python2.5, but python2.5 links to python2.4 and I dont understand why.. :s

And apparently it's a common error...

is there a newbie version of #ubuntu

AlestorJN, did you burn it yourself?

anyone using the old HP workstation vid cards? the FX6 out of a HP Visualize X-series?

meep, hard to make it any more newbie-friendly

trekkme, I've got 2 sata's and one ide and had issues with the alternate cd. Tried the desktop and it worked fine.

meep, other then start cutting out features.

don't burn to a cd-rw it doesnt work...

this is it,. lol

how much RAM do you have?

need some help getting a LV mounted to home in an existing system

this rooms answers just about any question, from basic to crazy advanced

desktop cd hangs too, when it loads the partitioning tool...

i meant with less ppl and for ppl with more newbie questions

1gb ram

meep, you want a more Linux-Beginner-Friendly Channel you mean then.

quer rock

should be enough for anyone

yeah

I somehow managed to make python unavailable.. /usr/bin/python links to python2.5, but python2.5 links to python2.4 and I dont understand why.. :s Someone please?

i only started a few days ago

haha , you have any newb questions ?

what SATA chipset do you have?

meep, best to read, read, read and read some more.. and just hangin here for clarifications on what you dont understand.

don't worry
just ask the queuestions all ready

hey, whats a good program to make a flyer? or an paper sized advertisement?

via vt8237

oodraw from OpenOffice.org

should I be able to see my ubuntu drive in 'System monitor'
i can only see my windows drive (dual boot)

just use openoffice, if you want, and make the page landscape, create 3 columns, and that way you have a ready 3fold flyer

I went for supper, and Thanks

soundray, does it come pre-installed with feisty? cause i dont see it in applicationoffice..

do you mean on the Filesystems tab?

yeah

so it's worked then?

using gnome or kde ?

gnome

I somehow managed to make python unavailable.. /usr/bin/python links to python2.5, but python2.5 links to python2.4 and I dont understand why.. :s Someone please?

Hey can anyone help me with this error I get while booting from the Ubuntu Live CD? /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off

got it, thank you

I would normally expect all mounted partitions to show on that tab.

i've been changing 'fstab' and made my windows drive sda1

that's not the error... scroll up

with ntfs-3g

you manually renamed the drive ?

When i write "syncevolution scheduleworld_1" I get this:"Segmentationfault (core dumped why??

do this sudo aptitude install p7zip p7zip-full rar unrar this will install 7-zip and the rar and unrar stuff then rename the file to Arena106.rar should work now

It's fine now

dunno

Thanks!

hahaha, no worries, when the drive came up, what name did it have in ntfs-3g ?

yw. It's useful for me to know whether my advice has worked, so thank you, too.

Why didn't Ubiquity add those lines?

I'm dual booting, my windows drive is sda1 what should my ubuntu half be called

are you dual booting i'm guessing ? any problems accessing your drives ?

open any of the other OO.o programs and go through File-New-Drawing

also check out linux.org for some good online manuals

I don't know

oh! same drive ?

I think it's a bug

/dev/sda1 /media/windowsDrive ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_GB.UTF-8 0 0
tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults,ro 0 0

a different partition would only use different numbers, for the partitions, but sda for the same device

You could try reinstalling python. `sudo aptitude reinstall python2.5`

thats all i have in fstab

When booting from CD (v7.04) and hitting Start or install Ubuntu my monitor signals are lost after the booting sequence. I hear the sound of the OS having booted but can't see anything - might be a hardware compatibility issue?

I've got Ubuntu server and LAMP installed, how do I allow other machines to connect to the mysql database? Preferably by IP, not just allow everyone

Pici, already done that, didnt help :s

thanks GizDrak

cool where do i find these numbers

Np DSBassetts

yes -- I didn't have it on any of my nine or ten feisty installs so far, though.

The bug, or those lines?

is there a list of command lind commands ?

gparted i beleive will show you all the partitions, but don't change anything with gparted otherwise you might break partitions

the bug

!cli | mortuis99

Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal

Sorry back now

does Bluez works with 2.0 adapteres?

yeah my ext3 partition is called sda2

you can hit Tab on an empty command line and say yes

I dont think thats what hes looking for.

Does anyone know anything about linking ubuntu to a printer located on another system on the network under a windows box?

gparted says that on my ext3 partition it cant find the mountpoint

anybody?

ok, so there we go, sda1 is your windows, (pre-installed i figure), then swap maybe ?, then ubuntu on sda3
thats strange, but you can boot into ubuntu
meep ?

does Bluez works with 2.0 adapteres?

yeah it is slower than it was before

sounds like the xserver isnt running properly. I'd try using the alternate install CD.

i have sda3 - extended and sda5 - swap

I'm just saying this as complementary information to yours. Sometimes it's useful to get a grasp of the range of things you can do first.

!alternate | the_undefined

The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal

no-one?

i can still boot? how do a give it a mountPoint

soundray:

ok, so all your partitions are set up properly,

thx

I somehow managed to make python unavailable.. /usr/bin/python links to python2.5, but python2.5 links to python2.4 and I dont understand why.. :s Someone please?

are you saying that grub can't find your ubuntu partition ?

it works so i guess so

my Gfx card is not under the list of supported cards - will basic VGA work anyway?

grub can

there are info in the wiki search "printer windows XP"

how can a change a mountPoint

ok, describe to me what happens when you boot your computer, all the way to when ubuntu is loaded

Should work fine.

you can probably fix this by running 'sudo apt-get --reinstall install' with the relevant python packages

the printer is running under windows server 2k3 and is set up as a print server

hey is there a way to get a icon that tells mt my computer tempreture

alright thx a lot

i get grub - two version of ubuntu (different kernels) and windows
then it boots fine

ne 1 ?

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPPrinter

????????????????????????????????????????????/

like it did before but slighlty slower

don't spam please. Have some patience.

i'm running 7.04

can you access windows fine also ?

im not spamming

right click on panal choose add to panel

thanks for that

I use sensors-applet. Its in the ubuntu repositories.

is it true that compiling a new kernel from kernel.org makes ubuntu much faster?

yeah i installed fstab and basically erased fstab and wrote over it

will I be able to use the advanced cd as a life cd or only get to see ubuntu after an install?

I mean I installed ntfs-3g

soundray, sorry didnt work :s

what you did is considered spamming by most of the relevant people here.

The Alternate CD is not a LiveCD, so it can only be used to install.

which packages did you try to reinstall?

soundray, just python2.5

Ill try step two in that but I have done the rest. Obviously username and password is more than guest due to it being a server

hm ok : /. thx

well you didn't need to erase fstab to mount your windows drive, if you needed to know, so know i guess we need to fix your fstab to what it was before...did you make a copy of it ?

what's the full path and name of that strange link?

yeah i was a bit messy and ntfs-3g didnt work

I'm going to resize ubuntu's partition and install OSX86. Will I need to reinstall grub or can I just add a line to grub to point it to the partition?

but i made a backup

soundray, all in /usr/bin, but python2.5 links back to python2.4

ntfs-3g adds the drive mounting automatically,.

Any pointers anyone?

is it true that compiling a new kernel from kernel.org makes ubuntu much faster....any ideas? or has anyone tried this already?

great. look into your backup, and copy the line with the sdax in it, where x is your linux hosting partition number, so sda3 ? i think

yeah but it didnt work auto so i tried manually

sorry soundray

did you get your windows drive to mount ?

have the other guys' suggestions worked?

yeah

DJ-_-: it may make it faster if you compile fewer drivers into the kernel. it would boot faster, obviously. as for speed of the actual system, that's kind of subjective.

i installed it but i cnt find it

try the reinstall on the python2.5-minimal package

soundray, so, /usr/bin/python links to python2.4, when I do ln -f /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python2.5, it does that, but then all of the sudden python2.5 links back to python2.4

i think you just erased the line where it mounts your drive for ubuntu, so just copy that line over, save, and reboot, you should be fine, make sure that theres not 2 lines trying to mount the same partition, in case its already there

i've changed fstab to include sda2 and sda5
i'll reboot

ok,
gluck

thanks for you help, I reboot now
you the man

ln -f sets hard links. Not recommended. And, anyway, this shouldn't be necessary at all.

soundray, *slaps himself* i though -f standed for force..

it does.
use -s for symlinks.

oh ok

ok I have tried following the instructions on the wiki page you linked but it has had no effect

sensors-applet i installed but i cant find it

did you right-click the panel, select Add to panel, and look through the available applets?

yes

dunno never configured a shared printer myself

I dont think the actual name of the applet is called sensors-applet. I'd check, but I'm only in a termnial session here.

o wait is it called harware monitor

Alt + F2 and type sensors-applet

o nvrmnd i found it
Thank you guys

thats a shame. I am struggling here. Tried most things but am still at a loss.

loosing ?

what do you mean you keep loosing them?

pha|con:: ok thx...btw is it normal for the kernel compile hosting operation to go on for more than one hour?

Im new to all of this so im on a very steep learning curve :s

DJ-_-: kernel compiling from source takes a VERY long time, yes,

DJ-_-: most definitely

I NEED TO INSTALL GTK+2.X how do i do this nothing seems to be working

soundray, so, I have /usr/bin/python2.5 but /usr/bin/python links to /usr/bin/python2.4

i need to do some proper compiling....i wasted one hour and i cancelled it...good thing i carried on with work in that hour...i will do some research and then compile my own kernel thx for da help ppl

it should be in the repos..

?

i cant find in the repos

use synaptic to search for libgtk

gtk is instaled by default in ubuntu

Its in the repositories "libgtk2.0-0"

sorry.
its in the repos.

no problem

Can anyone in here help me with Scripting?

how can I change the premsissions or var/www?

Cotton-Swab: who do you want to own the directory?

which language? seach google for "advanced bash scripting guide"

the admin
me

It is strange after every reboot the sdx changes. Last time i associated my drives with sda, now they are sde. This has been happening since my update to fiesty, when i lost my swap, and did mkswap for hda5

sudo chmod MODE /var/www (or) sudo chmod -R MODE /var/www

and I will have read, write and execute premmisions for the var/www dir?

tanks...

adam83rn, if you're trying to compile something, you'll need libgtk2.0-dev

Cotton-Swab: do you plan on making that directory viewable from the net?

no
internel

perhaps removing python2.4-minimal will force it.

jordan@jordan-desktop:~$ sudo chmod -R MODE /var/www

Cotton-Swab: You need to provide the mode.

wait

I have my timezone set to eastern but the clock is off by a couple hours ... shouldn't ntp be taking care of this?

Cotton-Swab: sudo chown username:users /var/www

soundray, I cant remove it for some reasonb

anyone know of any texas hold em calculators?

what is the exact command to allow all users read, write and execute presmmions to the /var/www dir

Cotton-Swab: just make sure you don't point httpd at it if you have it installed

question how can i install yahoo messanger in ubuntu?

Not sure what language, just need a script that I can have Cron.hourly run to search through /home/*/Maildir/* for files with TIMESTAMP.MESSAGEID.localhost:2,*T with a timestamp older than 7 days, and delete those files.

'sudo apt-get --purge remove python2.4-minimal' -- what does it say?

I got that to work, I just don't remember how..

hi there

I dont think there is a native YIM client for linux. I do know that Gaim can work with it though.

where do you set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH

pha

seen some at their site but some are for devian

there is a native client

pha|con:

gyach is a good YM client....it supports video and audiot, too

and other linux version redhat i guess

Yahoo! released a *nix client

soundray, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26144/

yep but i think it's relatively new

someone please

HELP where do you change the PKG_CONFIG_PATH

Cotton-Swab: sudo chown yourusername:users /var/www

whoa... channel went quiet real fast.

thanks

Cotton-Swab: just don't point any servers at that dir unless you change it back to root:root

hi a;;

how could I point a server to that dir?
I am tring to set up a server

i have a new laptop , it has windows vista licensed

by installing LAMP

you could look at the prerm script /var/lib/dpkg/info/python2.4-minimal.prerm and find out why it fails

guys there is a easier way to know where your jdk is

i have a new laptop , it has windows vista licensed & have only 1 80GB partition , can i install Ubuntu without loosing Vista?

or be brutal and insert 'exit 0' as the second line, then redo the remove command.

go to administration and open that coffee cup of java

huh, why is the name of this channel '#ubuntu-unregged' although i joined #ubuntu? i dont get it

Cotton-Swab: then you don't want to change the ownership to /var/www

hello there , is there an big difference between 24 colour depth or 16 colour depth?

anyone know where i can find kde or kubuntu panel applets ?

What do you mean? point a server to that dir? Are you meaning to use it with Apache2? Apache2 default Ubuntu config already uses it

normally yes, but watch out for strange configurations with restore partitions.

you are unregistered

does anyone here know if BLUEZ stack works with USB 2.0 adapters ????

Hi, I was /part

just came back to tell that it worked cheers

IPGHOST, please read ubotu's private message

soundray, ok its remove, but python is still linking to python2.5

oh, right, how do i do that? i only know that im registered at nickserv

soundray, errrr python2.4

how do i find out what dev name my cdroms are associated with

3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b

berent, if you're using the ubuntu packaged ones, update-alternatives --list java

so was thinking of changing screen colour depth

Backu and pha|con, all I want to do is have an internel website, but I don't want to keep and having to use the cr command, so I want the /var/www dir to have full premisions

okay, now try the reinstall on python2.5-minimal

any tips are welcome

Cotton-Swab: if you're trying to set up a LAMP then leave /var/www as being owned by root. if you want to edit things within that dir then use sudo, or sudo su until you're done working int that dir

oh yeah

pha

Is there a way to monitor what processes are using of your bandwidth?

`cat /etc/fstab` will give you a list of devices and mountpoints./

Howdy

it should come somewhere more prominently in UI

but it is much easier just dragging files into the dir

Cotton-Swab: if it's internal just make a directory that you can write to and link it from within /var/www

hmm nevermind, it's not that bad at all

ok

soundray, still the same

hello there , is there an big difference between 24 colour depth or 16 colour depth, or is there an gui to set colour depth?
in gnome

berent, it's a pretty sophisticated system inherited from debian, but you're right, not real obvious

I got it
thnaks

sorry, I'm out of suggestions...
dmesg | grep -i cd.rom

yes there is a pretty big difference I would use 24

soundray, I keep thinking, why does it always wants to be python2.4? Is it set to that somewhere?

hmm, okey

try /msg nickserv identify password

3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b

anyone with experience setting up a virtual ip in feisty?

already done that.. odd

berent, it you're curious, ls /etc/alternatives

Is there a way or a program that I can use to monitor how my bandwidth is being used and by which processes/streams?

you get that error when you change to 24 color depth?

someone recomend a console based irc client I can use over an ssh connection. available via sudo aptitude install

quadrata, do u want to make NAT?

I looked through all packages that are handled by the update-alternatives mechanism, but couldn't find anything python-related.

Definitly irssi.

no, just want to assign another ip to the same device

no , this error is about that colour depth , wich it is set on right now..

anyone know of any texas hold em calculators?

in fact, on a different subnet

soundray, sorry I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about :p

so its set to 24 i guess

simple to use? Little or no config?

but not sure ...

meep awsome

thank you Pici and soundray. If i reboot and delete the portion of fstab that has my cdroms. Will ubuntu write them correctly on reboot?

let me look that error up

soundray, /usr/share/python/debian_defaults says that the default python should be 2.5

Compared to BitchX, I think its simpler.
Plus the irssi.org website has a nice quick-setup guide.

Is there an upgrade path from ubuntu-generic to ubuntu-amd64? Should I just backup my home dir and reformat and install with the amd64 cd?

ok

no, it won't. /etc/fstab won't be touched by the system once ubuntu is installed.
but python alternatives aren't handled that way.

what is your video card?

soundray, so you know nothing?

http://paste.phail.org/index.php?show=12

er, linux-headers-`uname -r`

Pici, OK. I'll try it out.

how do I fix that?

Adam4444, u should use the header with yer current kernel

yes it is okay

http://paste.phail.org/index.php?show=12

remember to configure back the vmware server each time u update the kernel

yondie, I have tried all headers in /usr/src/, but vmware-player didn't like them.

i tried to boot from it, then it goes to the menu (start ubuntu, memory test, etc.)

funny
dat`s strange

choose start ubuntu

how do I install an application/x-shellscript? (.run)

and then after choose start ubuntu, it shows loading message on the top left corner
loading casper

then?

and then after that it blacks out

fire up yer teminal and do a ./the_script

http://paste.phail.org/index.php?show=12

is that all?

help please

; sh .run

actualy it shows a message at the bottom before it blacks out, but so fast i can't read it

its not burnt properly
before burning check iso image for its checksum

someone please

I want to burn elephants dream to a dvd - what is the best host app? gnomebaker? else?

thanks guys gotta go

soundray, I got it working! just all of the sudden it linked back to python2.5 without me doing something

gnomebaker is cool

i did, i downloaded the win5sum. and it compared, and it's the same

http://paste.phail.org/index.php?show=12

Cotton-Swab : sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start

DeVeDE

thanks berent!

is it for ubuntu win5sum

gnomebaker doesn't author dvds :P
thanks for the suggestion magnetron

i used it and compared and the checksum is correct

sorry though it did

It will sound weird but it didn't work. I tried: trickle -u 4 -d 0 wine WoW-enGB-Installer-downloader.exe and I'm still getting uploads of 18kb/s

my sincere apologies

nbbob, its okay, it was easy enough to install apt-get! , pssh, its no biggie :P

you wanted to burn elephants?!!!

berent, the video ;P

oh

Anyone running WoW with Wine/Cedega here?

are you sure it is burn properly

!antivirus

antivirus is something you don't really need on Linux, unless you serve windows clients. ClamAV and aegis are decent linux virusscanners. Also see !linuxvirus

i dunno. and then i choose Check CD for errors and then same result, black out

DJ-_-

got a virus on your linux box?

ClamAV sucks a hell

some problem with the CD /DVD . do a fresh one

haha if u run it on windows dat is

what do you give for linux?
a preference?

where can I get a java compiler?

gcc ?

na, but i have to meddle with windows ppl

rustalot, from the sun :P

any AV you would recommend

"javac" actually

rustalot, sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk or something around there

or else try burning a single file in the same media and see if its done. if its done then its okay. try again with the same else switch for another.

sorry my bad

but hey last time I used java it was blackdown-jdk

it`s sun-java6 rite now

sudo update-alternatives --configure java or something like that to switch

i don`t like java very much

why is there no ruby gems ?

ruby langs?

.....

what ?

DJ-_-: wut

gem is a pkg manager for ruby

any AV you would recommend for linux...and to be safe when windows file sharing?

Hi - anyone knows how to fix the frontend error in mythtv that causes this log line: TV Error: StartPlayer(): NVP is not playing after 20000 msec

I just installed webmin, how can I access it?

DJ-_-: i dunno my friend uses clamav and I use nothing

DJ-_-: is is a windows virus infecting your linux box?

DJ-_-, in my humble point of view

well, this XP laptop has McAffee

not yet

windows virus won`t do a damn think on a linux system
and even if it does

DJ-_-: have to execute a virus to be affected

it`s only on dat user level

webmin is by default on port 10000

how can I boot to command-line only without starting X?

i mean if u can execute in some unimagineable way

so go to browser and type a.b.c.d:10000

thanks!!

but i can be passing stuff with viruses to other people...that is the only problem

DJ-_-: Anna_Kournikoa.jpg.pif

how do i set audacious as my default mp3 player?

also, what is the defuat username and pass sunspec?

mage

audacious? default mp3 player? lame!

hmm I guess that doesnt work

DJ-_-: well first u must make sure what u share

andcor

which should i use?

I'm not sure on that one, sorry. I think i set mine when i ran my .sh script

angel_moreno_94@@@

if u really virus paronia stuff i think there`s this called antivir

The new version looks nice i think

ah

avira antivir

How do I set one?
a username and pass

avg makes a nice antivirus for linux

poop-: xmms, beep, rythmbox, amarok

tx

how can I boot to command-line only without starting X?

RedACE, killall xserver
:p

DeVeDE wants to degrade my movie

cuz ppl on windows wont let me manage there AV and they have some of my files....i think i will try an online scan...

i suppose you get to choose different boot options in grub when you boot

thx

sure think

I just like a simple mp3 interface and audacious does that job nicely. I just wanna set it as my default

take windows discussion to ##windows please

I tried diagnostic mode or whatever it's called
it freezes

do you know were the webmin conf file is?

I edited my xorg.conf to try to setup a 2nd monitor and now it won't boot

RedACE, even if the x windows are start
u can always CTRL + ALT + F1 till F6

I cannot.

server irc.ifi.uio.no

got it figured bud.

err?

open with

The missing link was sudo apt-get install samba

the system freezes

RedACE, wat type of gfx are u using by the way?

onboard intel and a mach64

Openssh problem, Connection refused port 22

I'm just gunna pull the mach64 out so I can boot

help

are you behind a router?

DJ-_-

were is the webmin conf file is?

run sshd :p
DJ-_-: you could just message the bloody bot
!help

I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots

or use that url

the port 22 is open at your router

i forgot its nick

Thanks for that, worked a treat!

were is the webmin conf file?

I have recently installed feisty on a new machine and I cannot apt-get install wine, claws-mail, etc because it cannot find them? I have all software sources enabled though. An I forgetting something?

poop-: welcome

cdavis you typing sudo before apt-get?

you have to enable the repositories in which such programs lie

how I can open port 22

failing_n00b, yes I am

were is the webmin conf file?

mmmmm warm laptop on a rainy day

that depends on your router

ok, just asking as I messed up on that just now

speaking bout router

andcor, I have as according to the claws-email website. I have all ther other sources enabled but it still cannot find wine

i am behind a router
how can i forward my apache port?

have you tried connecting to it on local network ?

Doctor I type this sshd :p

what error message do you get?

I installed the 64bit version of ubuntu, could this caues the error?

below is the output sshd re-exec requires execution with an absolute path

log in to your router and forward port 80 to your server's IP address

I can recommend the sources list you can find at http://ubuntuguide.org

Azul, No candidate version found for wine

Yes it definatly could

andcor I tried to connect from my localhost it's working ok
I am behind my adsl modem

fei_, dat`s called behind a router

ok, no other computer you can connect from at local network

i don't know what that even means

were is the webmin conf file?

yondie, goto portforward.com

andcor, I am behind ADSL modem

Cotton-Swab: /etc/apache2

should be in /etc

anyone here know why bluetooth may show Inquiry Failed:Connection Timed Out when a 'hcitool scan' is performed...even though my bluetooth device is identified and i can find it from the phone...I cant send files to it and neither can I scan from the pc as that error comes uo
up*

check out http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb

yes, but you have an router too ?

andcor should I open the port in ADSL modem?

thanks pha|con

yes, if you can

andcor no just modem and pc , no router

Cotton-Swab: np

I don't see a webmin conf, what is the name on it?

Cotton-Swab: what do you mean by webmin?

www.webmin.com

I can't tell you how you shall setup your network as I don't know exactly how you are connected to the internet

my cd tray just opended by itself ?

soundray Backu , but i can still restore and use my home dir right or just my documents just in case?

webmin is a web interface, just like on normal routers

Cotton-Swab: you'll have to use their forum or FAQs, never heard of it

maybe you need a bigger tube?

yes, only binaries are different. Data is the same.

Cotton-Swab: the conf file should be in /etc/webmin

ok, thanks

np

soundray, ok, cool.. I'll test it out. Is there a big performance difference?

only when you run serious numbercrunching applications

is there some kind of standard as to where to keep php extensions?

What is the defualt username/pass for webmin?

soundray, ok graphic intensive apps like opengl screensavers, or games, or crossover office?

Cotton-Swab: any sudo-capable user. if your user can do sudo, then use your username and password

some programs are actually faster on 32bit systems, because they are better optimized

ask in #php

No, I mean on the login screen for webmin(not using terminal) localhost:1000

Is there any way to connect a windows app into ubuntu, like X forwarding with ssh
?

crossover office is 32bit. You'll only give yourself trouble if you try to run that in a 64bit environment.

Cotton-Swab: this isn't a webmin channel

install xming on the windows box and use putty as the ssh client

games -- don't know. Screensavers -- what does it matter?

Cotton-Swab: yes, that is also what i meant. the login to webmin, is any user on the server that can do sudo. (or maybe also root...)

that's how i'm talking to you right now

sorry aroo, KennyTheGeekL I got it thanks too you!
thanks a lot

andcor, Ok I just check the configuration my ADSL modem, I just check my ip from www.whatismyipaddress.com and it shows ip address, the ip is the IP for my ADSL modem

no problem

/whois execut3

pha|con how do you mean?

is there an advantage of using a 64-bit, other than trying to get stuff working

I can't think of any advantage at this time.

bigger EP

pha|con, I want the reverse. I want to use a windows app, under ubuntu

make sure you have an ssh server set up on the linux box that can forward X11...then download Xming for windows...just do a google search for it

wats the diff between the alternate version of the CD?

Hi! The sound is crackling on my laptop. I have checked that i'm loading the right module. Any idés?

then download putty, and make sure X11 forwarding is on and login to your server. you can then run linux apps on your windows desktop

speaking of 64-bit I am getting a dual quad-core intel xeon server in soon should I stick 64-bit on there or stay with 32-bit

some memory I/O and floating-point intensive applications run faster in 64bit.

but you havent opened the port 22 ?

pha|con, I want the other way around

windows apps on linux desktop?

yes

stickerhappy, please read the private message from ubotu

wine

ha, this doesn't run in wine sadly

!wine | jimmygoon

wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.

I'm using vmware, but its not the best in the world...

you're out of luck then it sounds like

andcor, so if I open port 22 it will go to my pc or stop on my modem ?

hi

pha|con, gr, thats about what I expected, thanks

andcor sorry for my stupid question

np man....sorry i couldn't help out.

GizDrak, I'm guessing you should go 64-bit just to put all that good hardware to good use.

there is a free virtual machine out there. i forgot the name. can anyone think of what is it called?

pha|con, its ok, I appreciate it

when you open port 22 you have to select an computer to which all data to that port shall be forwardet

i'm still getting an error while running Xserver -- /etc/X11/X is not executable

kdubois, qemu

if you do 64-bit you're not gonna be able to view most video

It's all ok, we all gotta learn sometime

kdubois, vmware server is "non-free" free

it's after reinstallation of xserver

I've found alot of scripts to get 32-bit flash and java workign in the 64-bit environment, so, I'm pretty sure I might make the switch, soon.

will not need video it is a server :-)

andcor thanks, I'll check my ADSL modem configuration and try to open the port

Is there someway in Ubuntu 7.04 to undo settings in the system, like restorepoints?

yeah that is what I am thinking

awesome. go for it, then.

no

no, you'll have to restore a backup

May I ask where your from and what internet provider you are using? That way I might be able to find a guide to you ?

Christopherl, try sudo tar -czvf restorepoint.tgz /etc/*

GizDrak, but I don't know about the video.. Now I'm scared of making the switch again until I can find someone that will assure me that my vlc will still work and I will be able to view all my video.

jimmygoon, thanks. I remembered. I was thinking of virtualbox. its pretty good. i like it better than vmware...

This is as close as you can get

Can anyone help me install Glibc?

a lot of vid types won't work that use the win32 codecs

I am running 64-bit on this laptop but I have not tired to run video

it's already installed if you have a working system

GizDrak, I'm just wondering it there will ever be a "right time" to switch or will there always be drawback to switching?

what's the problem?

join #ubuntu-pl

Well i tried a simple hello world program but it messaged I didnt have stdio.h

I did notice I could not get any of the win32 codecs to install :-/

How can I, from the grub, run Ubuntu as root?

GizDrak, I mean how long will I have to wait?

BadAlloc"?

how do you uninstall somthing in ubuntu?

!b-e | obeleh

Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)

hmm

did you install build-essential?

if you're just waiting for video you'll have to wait until there are some 64-bit video codecs in the MS world

Cotton-Swab: 'sudo apt-get remove packagename' or 'sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename'

not sure. everything I need is here I do not watch much video on my computer

there might be a time where you really can bennefit from shift to 64 bit, but right know you have to wait for the commercial software providers

im pretty sure it has something to do with my shared memory on my unichrome .. not sure how to fix :/

Cotton-Swab: Either use Synaptic Package Manager or sudo apt-get remove packagename

thanks

GizDrak, you spend money on good hardware you can't even use most of the time.

is anyone else haveing problems connecting to accounts with GAIM

psusi PM

fbc_, isnt technology great? lol ;p

Have you tried this "memtest86" in your boot menu?

earthen, state your problem

obeleh

pha|con, are you serious, we have to wait on the windows developers?

this test have end?¿? XD

fbc_ yes to see how we can do it better.

among others...any vendors that create codecs for windows

it is pretty bad 64bit processors have been out for years and we are still not ready for them :-/

aroo, well i can't seem to connect to MSN, most of the time and when i do it's only when I disable all my accounts and avtivate only one at a time

the free software world is more than ready for them.

GizDrak I haven't noticed a sufficient performance boost installing AMD64 ubuntu

the open source community is quite ready for them.. I've been running 64bit ubuntu for years

upgrade to pidgin and see if thr problem is still there

aroo, it will not connect to any account by just starting the program

What's the ubuntu-beginners channel?

sorry I don't know, I only connect to aim servers

hello

never used msn

GizDrak, that exactly what I'm talking about. It sux. I love my ubuntu box, I just hate not being able to utilize all of it, and still have everything work.

you can ask your beginner's question here.

psusi ???

What's the ubuntu-beginners channel?

this is it

i want to get to the ubuntu beginners channel though

??

aroo, I don't like too my some of my friends and family use it

can you hear me?

check your PM

you could just dual boot 32bit and 64bit tell everything is out there for you

check this out guys so funny http://www.linkinn.com/_The_Chicken_says_to_the_Egg

i don't know if i'm doing this correctly

you're coming through faintly

aroo,if upgrade to pidgin do i have to uninstall gaim first

hi someone knows a way on ubuntu to run applications like nmap trough a socks?

it would probably be a good idea

what's the meaning?

heeelp
my xserver does not want to start!

help me too

just ask your question

you need to be descriptive

/etc/X11/X is not executable
it says when i start the sysetm

how can i create a channel?

psusi I sent you some messages do you see them?

where does it point? Check with ls -l /etc/X11/X

i tried tsocks but i dont really understand this programm

just join a channel and it will be created if it hasn't already

/join #channelnameyouwishtocreate

private messages? no.

/usr/bin/Xorg

i did it, but the channel didn't apear at the list

Is anyone dual-boot ubuntu and osx86?

hi all

what does 'ls -l /usr/bin/Xorg' give you?

ss7notifier, do you want to register a channel?

yes

hmmm... anyway all im trying to do is a simple Printf
Im used to borland builder but im trying to step over to Ubuntu

yes

install build-essential

/etc/alternatives/Xorg

go see your private messages

like the bot has been telling you in private message

try a 'sudo apt-get --reinstall xserver-xorg-core'

k its installing now ty

/channellist

hmm, soundray and that points to /usr/bin/Xorg-air but i've uninstalled air because it was broken (dapper)
so i guess i'll need to repair that link and make it to point the right exec
but i dunno how

try a 'sudo apt-get --reinstall xserver-xorg-core'

I need your help: look at this .. I got it from the system log file : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26148/
my computer goes down every 30 minutes. it is annoying me. how do I fix that problem, please?

please ask the channel, I can't help you right now.

apt complains that there is no such thing like --reinstall

it says your system is overheating

but xserver-xorg-core is installed

look at this .. I got it from the system log file : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26148/

How can I make cron launch a GUI application

sorry 'sudo apt-get --reinstall install xserver-xorg-core'

yes.. I know. and because of that , my computer goes down each 30 minutes

well then you need to replace cooling parts if it really is overheating

how come no one knows the solution to this issue?

that isn't an Ubuntu issue unless it's an incorrect reading

Is Seveas alive?

do you know anything about vhcs

I was running XP pro in this pc and it was going just fine until I installed Ubuntu. !!@

hey guys, quick question please
you know how the running programs stretch to fill the panel, is there a way to make them not stretch?

If you're dual booting you can boot into windows and test processor temperatures

NeXtDaY, that syslog indicates your motherboard is overheating.

done, what now?

check if it works

yes .. any suggestions, please?

NextDay i must think it is for the graphic card

sudo aptitude reinstall xserver-xorg-core then

NeXtDaY, get more fans?

I did. I am in dual boot and when I start XP it doesn't go down

Cotton-Swap: no

NeXtDaY, XP is stupid it would let your motherboard burn up

hwilde yeah. but isn't this a system problem?

either change the cooling system or monitor the temperatures in both Windows and Ubuntu and compare
you have plenty of options but you seem like you don't want to try

I agree with one thing .. stupid XP.

there is no command that is going to fix your overheating

ok then. new fan right ?

how to lunch an shortcut with some command option

NeXtDaY, if you don't care about that error then you can disable ACPI and it will let your system meltdown.

shuts to prevent overheating?

working?

oh
i forget about google

can someone help me with a networking issue I've been having? I've got 6.06 LTS server running on a sun X2100M2 server in 64bit.

I'll be away for a while now

you need to find out what is overheating, the processor, motherboard, or something else and then replace cooling pieces appropriately

that is far a good solution until I get a new fan

any idea why compiler can't see a header file

Go2Fast, what is the question

aroo Yep.

going to take me a minute to type it out bear wiht me

i have a question please.
you know how the running programs stretch to fill the panel, is there a way to make them not stretch?

Can someone please help me with configuring xchat?

you're great! it works

soundray is a busy man in here

Sakura-chan: what do you want to configure in particular

psusi it didnt help

hwilde hwilde aroo. thanks alot .. I will do .

ubuntu master hacker

I'd really like to remove these ... "XXX has joined" and "xxx has quit" messages they're messing up the whole channel

what's the trouble now?

fine what is overheating !!
find*

Sakura-chan: there should be an option in Edit-Preferences to turn off join/part messages

NeXtDaY, your motherboard - more specifically your processor.

Sakura-chan: what chat client are you using?

always good to have one around

yup

hwilde I will remember that. thanks

bbl, reboot

the server was running for a while and i shut it down to install it in a cabinet. rebooted and everything looked okay and started up okay. howevever, the network wasn't working. i could pin glocalhost and the local network IP configured on eth0. i could not ping the gateway configd in the interfaces file. restarted networking, restarted server, nada. reconfigured it on another interface, eth2 and it worked until I rebooted

ha ha

speaking of which, how do you turn off join/part messages in bitchx?

nice flood

How can I get a list of installed packages by install date?

well when I do gcc -c test.c it creates a file called test.o
But if I run it...

now i have tried configuring the itnerfaces config file for all interfaces, rebooted, restarted networking, etc. and it can't do anything

I get a syntax error

Go2Fast, your interfaces are probably flip flopping... hold on

i've tried manually configuring other IPs and using ifconfig to confg the interface too
ok
I did find out that /etc/hosts had a different IP than /etc/network/interfaces for the server, but I corrected that and rebooted

I think I am going to reinstall ubuntu be back later

Go2Fast, you should force the interface names by MAC Address in /etc/iftab

does ibm still manufacture ppc procs?

hello, can someone help me out please?

aroo, do you know if there are sources address for the Pidgin packages

!ask | bakka

Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question

yes

bakka - just state nature of problem

bsdunix, they do, but im not sure if they produce consume ones

yes

bakka, not if you don't ask your question

tgm4883 thanx

you know how the running programs stretch to fill the panel, is there a way to make them not stretch?

it broke my heart to see apple switch to intel stating that ppc just wasn up to snuff on performance. same occurred with my favorite; alpha

cheers

any ideas ther than teh iftab ? i've got three of these runnign centos without a hitch

meep, actually make that sudo chmod +x wolfET.run ; sudo ./wolfET.run

to be expected. the volume just wasn't there

bakka, right click on the panel and uncheck expand

no sorry, try googling pidgin and go to their page

ok ta

seems you may be referring to the taskbar at bottom of kde. am i right?

tgm4883, that will un-expand the whole panel and still keep the program tabs stretched

bsdunix, nopo, im on gnome

hi all, I'm at a hotspot and for some reason, when I run wireshark, I see other peoples traffic on the network (in the clear)....anyone know what is going on?

aroo, yeah thats what i've been doing but not finding anything thanks anyway

apt-getting gnome as we speak

bakka, ah, hmm, well mine don't stretch

is there a website/resource where I can look this up, cos i could find it on google

i had a girlfriend like that once

*could not

any ideas ther than teh iftab ? i've got three of these runnign centos without a hitch

chmod it to excecutable and run it

Cotton-Swab: what do you mean looks like that? a file browser?

Cotton-Swab, you mean a different theme?

turn off the "capture in promiscuous mode" option

Hi , when i try to set margins in KDE for my printer they are not saved or used . anyway to fix that ?

no no

they are 0 :/

Cotton-Swab: try the xfce window manager? aptitude install xubuntu-desktop for example

how do I install vhcs

by the way; ubuntu runs great on my ibm intellistation zpro dual 866 xeon

the control panel

is my only option of running 32-bit programs on my 64bit feisty install to use run the 32-bit app in a chroot environment?

Cotton-Swab, I don't see a control panel on there

you know cpanel?

hi all, somehow I can't get nvidia-settings to twinview to my 2nd monitor. It definetly sees the monitor and it's type/settings, but when I extend, or do cinerama, it does nothing. when I put the monitor to another port it works

it's liek that

I can't write within my language in pidgin.. I already installed the language support file . restarted the system but yet I am still not able to write .. any suggestions, please? sorry for repeating!

no

Cotton-Swab: sorry I just don't know what you're talking about
Cotton-Swab: that looks like a default gnome environment to me

do you know what plesk or cpanel is?

yknott, can you tell me my other options? I want to install claws-mail but there is no 64bit version available, I don't really need it to be 64bit so installing the i386 arch is fine

After upgrading from breezy to dapper, I'm having X problems. How do I fix it?

Cotton-Swab: do you mean .deb files?

Cotton-Swab: no

joetheodd, that is very vague

no, I just want to install what I downlaoded
those are files I downloaded

now i have tried configuring the itnerfaces config file for all interfaces, rebooted, restarted networking, etc. and it can't do anything

dromer; i think this issue of yours is fixed in your xorg.conf file; set up a monitor0 and a monitor1 as well as screen0 and screen1

all I want to do is install the,m

depending on what it is, it may work to force-archictecture when installing the i386 deb

Like, "X server failed to load" or something like that. Just a sec, I'm booting right now.

Cotton-Swab: dpkg -i package.deb

Cotton-Swab: ah. sorry can't help

it isn't a .deb

the server was running for a while and i shut it down to install it in a cabinet. rebooted and everything looked okay and started up okay. howevever, the network wasn't working. i could pin glocalhost and the local network IP configured on eth0. i could not ping the gateway configd in the interfaces file. restarted networking, restarted server, nada. reconfigured it on another interface, eth2 and it worked until I reboot
