Comments:

<0> what files should I check to understand what could be happened to my Gnome?
<1> I have a proxy that needs a username@domain and then a p***word then the proxy address, can anyone help me with the apt.conf or export http_proxy for that?
<2> umount /dev/<device> or umount /mnt/<mountpoint>
<3> is there a way I can make it so middle click closes a program. Preferably only when it's minimized?
<4> hello is there any way to change all the files from root to another user? or will it mess stuff up
<5> http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu "For all of you what question have"
<6> yea it says command not found
<7> can windows and linux become equally secure?
<8> lotte4 what are you wanting to change?
<1> dylan_: no
<9> dylan_, Never
<7> WiFiTux, why not? i thought security was a process, not a produ ct
<1> dylan_: M$ don't process it well
<10> anybody else who can help me with my bootproblem? :)
<4> amz0r im talking about them all
<4> Im getting tired of having to chown dirs i want to use manually



<11> What is a good gui cd burner software?
<3> gnomebaker
<12> how do i upgrade firefox?!?
<9> dylan_, microsoft never focused on security in the past and now they have a product
<3> !gnomebaker
<13> eugman: What? Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
<14> hmm is there a GUI config tool to set up a share for a windows network to detect it?
<2> Spaz umount isn't found?
<15> hell0p
<1> dennis_: sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade
<7> WiFiTux, i see.... is there any truth to this article? http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-security/1918-linux-more-attackable-than-windows.html
<8> lotte4 i wouldnt touch anything such as system files
<6> yea unmount isnt found
<3> rend unlock universe rops and use gnomebaker
<2> Remove the n spaz
<15> hmm
<2> umount ^^
<8> can you give me an example of a dir ?
<7> WiFiTux, why is linux more attacked than windows?
<16> hai are you
<17> i need help
<1> dylan_: I don't hace a GUI right now. That one is probably one from M$ security advisors paid by M4
<1> $
<4> like when i make a dir a diferent user with chown it makes dir that but files are still root and i have to end up changing each file 1 by 1
<16> hai are you
<10> I'm getting an "starting hotplug subsystem" at my first boot, all the solutions I found on google imply that I actually have to be logged in, which I can't at this time :)
<9> dylan_, more linux servers exist....
<10> s/an/a/
<15> i was wondering if anyone could help me?
<9> dylan_, 70% of webservers run apache
<15> heres my prob http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=128138
<7> virogenesis, but i heard apache is attacked less
<10> already tryed disabling my USB-ports and wireless network card in my BIOS
<10> but didn't help
<1> dylan_: what is your point?
<15> basicly it won't install
<3> Isn't linux used more often for webserving anyways?
<9> dylan_, apache is always being patched.... its being attacked but it isn't so successful
<8> lotte4: ah ok user files, in that case chown 777 -R dir_name
<1> eugman: yes
<7> WiFiTux, my point is, does popularity diminish security? why do some people claim that their windows desktops are more secure?
<2> Jimmy__ What's the problem, exactly? You don't want hotplug running?
<15> it gets to the partion manager
<15> but stops
<1> dylan_: because they are ignorant.
<9> dylan_, because they know nothing
<3> isn't that like asking why so many more of the murderers in africa are black?
<4> ok thanks amz0r
<1> eugman: yes
<6> **** LINUX!
<10> Dtragcoen: no, I just installed ubuntu, I booted it for the first time and it just hangs
<2> Heya. Anyone who wants my help, pm me. I'm having trouble following the chat. I'll try to help a couple of you and let you know if I can't help you. I'm sorry if I can't.
<8> lotte4: np. again dont use that on system (root) directories
<9> dylan_, some people choose not to listen reason.... more people focus on security with linux
<10> last thing that pops up is the hotplug-stuff, and I can't cancel or break it
<9> spaz is so mature...
<18> How do I set JAVA_HOME?
<19> hello}
<20> dylan: secure with what...so many patches!
<10> rixth: JAVA_HOME=path ?



<8> perhaps more people foucus on security with Linux because they are generally more clued up users?
<7> virogenesis, is there anything that is unhackable
<21> dylan_, no
<22> dylan_, yes
<9> no dylan_
<22> Windows is a good example
<21> italy, ?
<22> oh unhackable.
<22> nevermind.
<21> :)
<23> Anyone know if a PCI Express card is ok to use in a normal PCI port? maybe silly question lol
<24> italy: :)))))))
<9> nothing is unhackable they will always be bugs
<24> nogi: nop
<18> Nogimics, no
<1> Nogimics: no
<23> glad I asked
<23> Thanks
<2> spaz, What application are you using to burn your cds? I can try duplicating the problem, but not if you don't chill. There's a lot of people here with issues. It's hard to think of everything for everyone at once.
<9> Nogimics, the slot is different
<1> Nogimics: PCI_X yes
<9> Dtragcoen, hes gone
<24> !patience
<13> There are a lot of questions, but only few who might answer you. Please be patient.
<8> rixth: export JAVA_HOME=/path/to/java. that will only be set for that session tho to make it perm vi your .bash_profile and add the line in there
<21> wb Hobbsee
<25> ty Seveas :)
<1> rixth: in .bash.rc
<23> WiFiTux: PCI_X ?
<10> Dtragcoen: I found some solutions, but they all need me to actually be logged in, which is not possible
<26> ok, I have all the repositories added, and there is no unrar-nonfree on my list
<1> Nogimics: PCI-X
<27> i want to manually delete something from gconf, how do i cleanly shutdown gconf?
<24> newubuntie: sudo apt-get update
<2> Jimmy, you can sometimes p*** nohotplug or hotplug=off as a boot option when booting the cd. Does the livecd have a boot prompt when it first starts up?
<18> Bah, I still get the error it isn't set :(
<2> This would be before logging in.
<7> virogenesis, why not
<2> I've only used the livecd a couple times, and don't remember the specific for this distro
<1> I have a problem. My grub takes too long to make the partition boot. Is it because my HD is hdb1?
<26> pygi: woudn't clicking reload in synaptic have the same effect?
<10> Dtragcoen: I don't work with the live-cd, I just finished the installation on a harddrive, so I just start it up from my grub
<9> what do you mean dylan_ ?
<24> newbuntie: post ur sources.list ,lemme see
<7> virogenesis, why is nothing unhackable
<2> Okay, Jimmy, let me check the syntax on that. You can edit the grub bootcmd at boot, once moment.
<21> dylan_, perfect safety/security is an illusion
<21> dylan_, there'll always be bugs
<9> because humans write programs and humans do make errors at times
<7> Seveas, i see, but why is linux immune to virus/spyware
<10> Dtragcoen: that's very kind of you
<28> dylan_: not immune, but the structure of the setup is a lot more resistant to it
<26> pygi: where would sources.list be? :)
<24> dylan: and because most of them is written for win
<21> dylan_, it isn't
<24> newbuntie: /etc/apt/sources.list
<21> dylan_, it's just quite a bit harder
<28> dylan_: simple things, such as the root/user bifurcation, then other things such as the fact that 95% of packages in debian based systems at least, for example, will come directly from maintained repositories
<29> hello all can somebody please tell me how to get java working in ff1.5. yes I followed intructions in the wiki and still doesnt work
<21> and windows is more popular, s a more attractive target
<9> dylan_, because you need root access to access parts other than your home it ain't immune but alot harder
<3> wifitux, so the problem is after you choose the distro but before the black and brown screen?
<30> Hi, I'm about to format and yank a hard drive from a windows computer. should i format it to FAT32 for use with setting up ubuntu?
<21> catch_phrase, no
<9> dylan_, a virus will find it harder to break out and spread to the rest of the system this is the most important thing
<21> catch_phrase, you can simply let the Ubuntu installer take care of formatting the drive
<30> ah alright
<3> fat32 is good for sharing files between an ubuntu install and a windows install
<30> thanks Seveas
<28> Seveas: arguments like that, though, generally get shot down quite quickly. It's not the case that Linux would have as many security problems if it were as popular.
<24> dylan: if you configure system good, all it can possibly do is break your home directory/user directory
<26> pygi: i have these two uncommented:
<28> a recent link I saw elucidated on that whole point quite well I though; I'll dig for it
<1> eugman: no, there is only one OS installed. Grub takes too long to start the kernel image. Until, then it runs fasteer
