<0> kargh: Shoot.
<1> i am connected thru ftp to localhost and it stll hangs and fails to complete connection i enabled -v output and get nothing ..any ideas
<2> i've actually liked help desk...I like working with people...it was always funny
<3> tonyyarusso : Stay with retail. Helping idiots ****s. Atleast in retail they find what they need and leave.
<4> Sohmc: Ooooh yea. Those of us who make it away generally have some lasting side effects after. Myself, I get this uncontrollable twitch below my left eyelid whenever someone mentions the word, "end-user".
<5> Sohmc: I hope so! LOL, 'cause I don't. I came in here looking for some support and clarification.
<2> I had a guy once that was trying to install a printer and under the location drop-box, he couldn't find "next to my computer"
<6> If I run apt-get, but then press crtl-z to get out of it, it gets locked up
<7> crimsun: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8524
<6> what can I do to unlock apt-get to use it again?
<2> tanubis, lol
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, did you get it?
<8> hi
<9> aaronshaf: yes - do fg
<0> kargh: Ah, but in retail they ***ume you're the idiot. In tech help, they acknowledge that you are the all-knowing god. And hopefully pay accordingly?
<10> it's amazing how many people try to log-in to my machine
<6> what does fg do?
<11> "foreground"
<2> CanYouHelpMePlz, I've had people from China and Brazil try to brute force their way into my machine
<8> are there any good widely available pocket pcs that run linux
<2> it was the wierdest thing
<3> tonyyarusso : Sometimes. Generally they just ***ume you're an idiot since you're unable to get a real job and had to settle for help desk.
<6> hrm, ok. thanks!
<11> any add that you put in the background it will bring them up
<10> Sohmc: yea, i get tons of that crap
<9> aaronshaf: if you are in bash, do help fg
<6> Keep up the good work foks.
<6> folks
<12> I have a p4 with Hyper threading should I get the multi proc kernel?
<2> hmmm...there is on...called turgent or something
<6> k
<10> Sohmc: just had a guy from london try to view my desktop using vnc
<13> what does "restricted copyright" in the synaptic repository settings do?
<14> thats what i use pnin
<15> ok, I was in the process of doing a dist-upgrade to dapper, when I accidently Ctrl-C'd it, and now when I try to continue I keep getting this error: The following packages have unmet dependencies:
<14> ponin
<0> kargh: Well, real jobs sort of elude those who plan to leave the position in three months.
<15> libc6-i686: PreDepends: libc6 (= 2.3.5-1ubuntu12) but 2.3.6-0ubuntu6 is installed
<10> poningru: you want the smp kernel
<4> I get at least a few brute-force attempts every day on my FTP server...
<2> foampiec1, yeah....I forget what it's called
<5> Sohmc: Not really, but that's okay. Ubuntu will be my third or fourth attempt at Linux. :)
<4> It's kind of funny, because the login script mentions the fact that all activity on the server is monitored and streamed to a tape-drive.
<16> How hard is it to setup WPA for Ubuntu? That is if Ubuntu automatically recognize my wireless card, etc that I think it will
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, ah...what was your question?
<17> WildTangent: well it helps if you turn up your PCM level.
<14> depends on which wireless it is lampshade
<9> lampshade: what card?
<17> lampshade: it takes a bit of legwork, but it's not difficult.
<12> CanYouHelpMePlz: thanks
<11> let me guess, broadcom?
<11> ;)
<10> poningru: no problemo
<18> tanubis: why do you use ftp? could use ssh?
<5> Sohmc: Just curious about the bug reporting. Evolution froze up on me and attempted to send a bug report but failed.
<2> foampiec1, Zaurus!
<2> ah...
<18> tanubis: its quite easy to get p***words for ftp
<7> omfg
<16> Intel Centrino-- basically the ipw2200 project should take care of it. I'm pretty sure ubuntu can detect wireless, I'll just have to hardline to the router until I can get WAP working. What's a bit of legwork mean?
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, evolution, i've found, to be pretty bulky...have you tried thunderbird?
<11> they are in plaintext
<7> im an idiot
<7> thanks
<8> Sohmc: can it run gnome?
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, or did you need evolution for something specific?
<10> Sohmc: just had somone try to ftp me
<17> lampshade: it means you have to edit a couple files, but that's it.
<5> Sohmc: The program posted a message to the effect that the bug reporting system didn't recognize Evolution email.
<4> UFO: because I use it to transfer information too and from school, which has logins that don't allow anything but an explorer shell to connect to the internet. There's also nothing all that comprimising on the server, and security is therefore not an issue. The only thing I had to worry about was perhaps a fellow student stealing one of my ***ignments, which is why all activity is logged.
<2> foampeace, don't know...I'm sure you could find out...I'd imagine it has a reduced version of gnome or something
<9> heh, #debian qotd: -!- mode/#debian [+b *!*@*.registered] by mentor
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, which bug reporting system?
<19> how do I switch nautilus back into spatial mode?
<5> Sohmc: Yup! That and Firefox is what I use on my xp machine.
<14> tanubis, ssh is safer than ftp
<11> ssh is safer than anything else we got
<4> owner: ssh is prohibited in a few of the places where I need to access my files.
<18> tanubis: ok... i see...
<5> Sohmc: Great! You mean there's more than one? Geepers, I can barely remember that! lol :D
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, so....thunderbird would work for you?
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, you lost me...more than one what?
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, :-)
<5> Sohmc: Not sure which bug report program it was, sorry.
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, I'm so confused....
<5> Oh, absoutely. I just wanted to see the difference, Sohmc.
<11> god damn, acrobat is 22.8 megs
<11> for a pdf viewer
<12> !firefox1.5
<20> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
<3> Yup
<11> wtf are they thinking
<10> RatherDashing: evince is much better
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, ah...I don't think evolution is good...personally
<11> outlook > evolution
<14> thunderbird is good
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, it tries to be an Outlook do-over...but...it isn't that good
<8> whats good about embedded systems? what are they exactly?
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, some people really like it though
<21> Cheers guys see you next time....
<2> ion, see ya
<5> Bug report program or whatever. I'm not really too computer proficient, that's why my wife doesn't let me near her computer and I've got two to play with. LOL
<22> Evince is good for pdf
<22> s
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, heheh
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, well, some bug programs are based on the e-mail system...and if your e-mail system isn't working...it won't file the bug reports
<23> hi
<4> Does anyone know how hard it'd be to set up outlook to run on ubuntu (including the synchronization feature for various handhelds)? My Dad has been thinking of leaving the windows world, but he's being held back by fear of losing the ease he gets from the latest business version of outlook.
<3> I don't like Evolution. Felt clunky.. slow... bloated.. buggy.. when I last used it.
<5> Sohmc: That's good to know about evolution. I'll use thunderbird instead, then, TY.
<6> Is there anyway to set a shortcut key combo for a custom app?
<8> are embedded systems like hidden market computer systems?
<9> there is no mua but mutt
<24> tanubis: try evolution & gnome-pilot
<2> tanubis, I'm going to go against the linux voices....if your dad really needs outlook, he should stay on windows
<23> i need some help with my nforce audio. i'm using an nforce4 motherboard and have already tried some walkthrought i've found on the forums
<2> ubuntu1stchoice, glad I could help
<4> Sohmc: thanks
<3> Or just used thunderbird
<25> Well that's odd. I updated my fglrx drivers and now all I have is software 3D.
<17> sevtastic: pastebin the following: cat /proc/asound/cards && amixer
<0> aaronshaf: I don't know, but I'd sure like to see that in future releases.
<9> Sohmc: or use outlook on windows under qemu ;)
<24> Sohmc: nobody needs lookout
<2> amphi, that's true...but you won't be able to sync your palm
<2> Xenguy, lookout?
<6> One more question: Where's the best place to find desktop wallpaper?
<4> Yea, the problem is he's an executive with about 2500 contacts in a database, and he gets about 80-200 business emails a day. Outlook does a marvellous job coordinating everything for him, especially in synching with his handheld for when he takes business trips away from home.
<24> Sohmc: figure it out
<23> sev@primed:~$ cat /proc/asound/cards && amixer
<23> 1 [UART ]: MPU-401 UART - MPU-401 UART
<23> MPU-401 UART at 0x330, irq 10
<23> amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or directory
<24> !tell sevtastic about paste
<4> Evolution just doesn't have the capability
<2> Xenguy, took me a while
<11> why eclipse uninstalling azureus?
<26> hi all, Im wondering, im using ubuntu 5.10, and i cant use 'make'... what package would i download to get this capability?
<27> !tell aaronshaf about themes
<0> I had a Firefox window open playing an audio stream with the mplayer plugin, and now none of my sounds work at all, unless they're from that same plugin. (MPlayer alone won't even work.) (Gnome, ESD) Can I get my sound back without logging out?
<14> taubis what about thunderbird
<24> Sohmc: I see
<3> Stick with windows
<27> bdt: build-essential
<9> bdt: easiest is apt-get install build-essential
<6> I know about themes, but I'm specifically looking for wallpapers
<28> tonyyarusso: Try killing the firefox process; it is probably still running in the background somewhere.
<26> ok thanks
<2> tanubis, there a lot of things that linux does well...there are a lot of things that linux is catching up on...the dependent corporate world isn't ready for linux
