<6> hello everyone
<3> hi
<7> how can i increase theb*** in gnome/rhythmbox? in kde its in amarok
<8> keleus: "which appname" will tell you what it's trying to run when you execute "appname"
<9> Hello, I just installed the new Windows Vista Beta 2 and i'm trying to restore my GRUB can anyone help please?
<10> hey somebody help me:
<3> Kiko0123: /msg ubotu grub
<10> i try to reestart GDM and it retourn: /etc/X11/X is not executable
<11> hyphenated: now i need to get the program to talk to /home/TESTUSER and not the home dir of whoever launched it
<2> tell Kiko0123 about mbr
<3> Elbrujo: well, tell us what you did
<12> !tell Elbrujo about xgl
<13> My server has eaten up all its ram almost. Most of it is just cached. Can someone tell me how to make it dump the cache with out rebooting.
<10> im try to change to Xgl
<8> hayden: bizarre. want to try something to fix it? cd /var/cache/apt; sudo mv pkgcache.bin pkgcache.bin.broken; sudo apt-get update
<3> Elbrujo: are you following the guide?
<11> how do i find out what user a PID is running under?
<11> i want to double check that i did it right
<14> nameless14: this is usual - it's how linux works
<8> keleus: ps -fp pid
<15> hyphenated, thanks
<9> apokryphos, i'm on that page, but i'm having problems can I PM you?
<16> is it possible to install ubuntu server on a p2 300 w/ 64mb ram? (my beater box, i seem to get kernel panics on install)
<10> sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/Xgl /etc/X11/X
<13> Frogzoo, Im sure some of the stuff cached is old and not going to need to be put in cache again. Do you still think its a good idea to not worry about it? The performance has been slightly less then a few days ago (its been up for a few days) but that could be I just have more stuff on it. I dont know
<11> hyphenated: ok, its running as the right user :) but again now to get it to work in a paticular directory... hmmm.
<17> Could anyone point me to a WPA and Atheros Howto on Dapper Drake LTS?
<3> Kiko0123: if you like
<10> to change to the Xgl
<9> it says "type $ grub-install /dev/hdaX where X is your Ubuntu root install." how can i know where is my Ubuntu Root install ?
<10> and it dosnt start
<14> nameless14: the kernel uses spare memory for buffer space - it's a performance benefit
<3> Kiko0123: are you in Ubuntu live now?
<9> yes
<3> Kiko0123: pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l
<18> !tell Elbrujo about XGL
<13> Frogzoo, ok, thanks.
<9> ok sec
<19> nameless14, if it needs the ram, it will start dumping stuff from the cache
<20> nameless14: you actually *want* your server to use all of the memory. memory is faster than disk cache.
<18> !xgl
<5> XGL on Ubuntu: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager - Join #ubuntu-xgl for all the XGL fun on Ubuntu systems. Pretty videos on http://www.novell.com/linux/xglrelease/ See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
<18> where'd ubotu go?
<20> ubotu: botsnack
<5> :)
<18> oh, just lagged. sorry
<20> he's here.
<15> is there any easy way of converting a desktop system into a server, with no gui or programs wasting ram etc ?
<13> tyrestrte, even if the cached things are OLD and will never be cached again its best not to dump cache?
<3> hayden: start removing some X, gtk libs, and it'll go
<9> apokryphos, http://pastebin.com/703946 here is it
<20> hayden: just uninstall ubuntu-desktop -- I think that should do it.
<3> fyrestrtr: no, it's just a metapackage.
<21> hayden: GUI programs waste RAM only when you're using them. Don't run X and you're not "wasting" RAM :)
<3> unless you installed with aptitude, removing it won't do anything (see FAQ)
<20> ah yeh. I hate metapackages
<17> Could anyone point me to a WPA and Atheros Howto on Dapper Drake LTS?
<9> apokryphos, my linux is on /dev/sdb2 * 21281 24391 24989107+ 83 Linux
<3> Kiko0123: two hard-disks, Linux on the second?
<9> yes
<4> What would be the advantage of using the dapper 6.06 dvd as opposed the cd? Is it just more packages?
<3> Kiko0123: yes, so root is hd1,1
<9> the big hard disk got the ubuntu on
<15> thanks all
<9> so i type grub-install /dev/hda1,1 ?
<22> how to unban from irc channel?
<20> anildigital: ask the op?
<6> has anyone lost 3d graphics from upgrading to dapper? I have a ati radeon 9600 and am afraid to upgrade.
<22> who is op?
<11> er, why did this not work properly (groups did not change) "sudo chown TESTUSER:TESTUSER ./.TESTDIR"
<3> Kiko0123: I wouldn't do it that way. sudo /sbin/grub
<3> anildigital: what's the problem?
<20> kandinski: TESTUSER != testuser
<23> what would be good program for administration/management since I could not webmin in the repositories?
<19> darrenrxm, yes they have, but they are nvidia users :)
<22> i m not seeing messages in Ruby channel
<14> elephanthunter: the dvd can also do upgrades as well
<8> keleus: is 'TESTUSER' a valid group? (listed in /etc/group ) ?
<11> hyphenated: yea
<4> Thanks Frogzoo
<24> nvidia = could offer better linux support
<22> but able to see messages from all in ubuntu channel
<3> anildigital: this is not the place to take up problems in other channels, I'm afraid
<11> half the files were the correct group, half were still my group (directory was copied from my home)
<8> keleus: in capitals and everything?
<11> yea
<6> thankyou for the answer DarkMageZ
<20> anildigital: ask in #freenode
<22> ok
<8> you only changed the directory, not the files in the directory
<11> OY im an idiot
<11> that directory is a symlink
<3> Kiko0123: pm me if you want and I'll walk you through it
<25> um, can anyone help me with uninstalling my current fglrx? sudo apt-get remove xorg-driver-fglrx doesn't work! :-(
<20> keleus: chown -r testuser:testuser
<11> i should do it to the actual directory
<9> apokryphos, i pmed you
<17> Is ubuntu and WPA a no go?
<3> Kiko0123: it's not getting through. I guess you're not registered?
<3> Kiko0123: /msg ubotu register
<11> that did the trick
<9> ok sec
<11> my chown wasnt recursing symlinks
<26> I tried following the Knome guide (to take kwin and run it under gnome) I must of done something wrong and it failed.... now that I've tried changing things back, I'm still not getting a proper gnome environment on login, just a blank desktop with nothing running, no panels, no gnome-session, etc.
<9> here
<19> topfs, it is possible
<26> Is there any way to fix it? It seems to have affected all user accounts as well.
<17> DarkMageZ Because I have tried for 4 hours yesterday and couldn't get it to work?
<11> hyphenated: heh, basically im running a p2p client and i want it isolated from my user - just in case
<23> Can someone tell me what would be good program for remote administration/management since I could not find webmin in the repositories?
<11> hyphenated: since it insists on making a directory in the home of whoever launched it, i just put a link there to where i want the files actually stored
<17> DarkMageZ WPA Supplicant doesn't seem to work for me, get some fail message in boot up
<27> !paste
<5> Please do not flood the channel http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ for pasting long texts it does not disrupt the channel. [webboard for Ubuntu: http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=1269 : not an offical package].
<8> keleus: uh.. fun fun.
<11> and i dont paticularly feel like editing code (i can barely manage a proper hello world) to fix it
<25> anyone available on the ATI/fglrx problem??
<19> topfs, maybe if you directly ask in this channel, with a pastebin of the error message, someone could help
<22> I am getting "#freenode-social Cannot send to channel" message in #freenode
<11> anildigital: you need to wait till someone (or the channel bot sees you waiting patiently enough) to give you voice
<28> anildigital, try re-joining - you should be voiced automatically in #freenode
<11> anildigital: you can still PM them
<19> [D-Tail], are u currently using the drivers?
<17> DarkMageZ ok, is there a log of the bootup somewere or do I need to reboot to get that info?
<27> how can i hide this warning -->http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/i15591
<25> DarkMageZ: no, I'm using ATI driver for the moment
<27> if i press hide nothing happens
<20> topfs: /var/log/messages and dmesg can help you with bootup messages
<25> DarkMageZ: but I couldn't manage to uninstall/reinstall fglrx ... and it seems the package is broken now
<11> hyphenated: is there a way to make it so that it wont even give that user a chance to authenticate on the terminals/GDM? i can log in as it, and it sends me the MOTD, and immediatly exits back to login, but i would rather have an error...
<25> DarkMageZ: and when I type in a terminal 'sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx' it tries to remove it from my system
<25> which fails horribly
<11> hyphenated: basically the ONLY way i want that user used is when run SUID by that binary
<19> [D-Tail], does it spit out any particular error mesaages/
<25> DarkMageZ: dpkg-divert: mismatch on divert-to
<25> when removing `diversion of /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 to /usr/share/fglrx/diversions/libGL.so.1.2 by xorg-driver-fglrx'
<11> hyphenated: and is there a way to run something with a paticular GID as well?
<8> keleus: did you set a p***word for that user?
<25> and more of that... then an error code from post-removal script (2 )
<11> hyphenated: i ran "sudo chmod -d TESTUSER"
<23> anyone know of a good program like webmin? I could not find webmin in the repositories.
<11> and it said p***word changed
<25> and 'Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)'
