<8> mageknight: install mplayer-fonts package
<0> how???
<0> what's the command _jason
<8> mageknight: do you know about synaptic, apt-get, and aptitude?
<8> or any one of those really?
<0> _jason: No. i'm a newbie in linux
<9> sorry, i pressed alt-f4 instead of alt-f2 lol
<8> mageknight: how did you install mplayer?
<0> _ jason: i just type sudo apt-get command for the mplayer
<8> mageknight: right, so to install mplayer-fonts, you would do: sudo apt-get install mplayer-fonts but there is a nice gui program you can use too and you can access it by going to system > administration > synaptic
<9> hold on.. need to restart
<10> i seriously just had a restaurant manager call my 24/7 emergency support line and ask me to "dial in and unfreeze his mouse"
<10> at midnight
<0> you mean the package manager right??
<8> mageknight: yes
<0> _jason: how do i use this
<8> ubuntu: tell mageknight about synaptic
<11> anyone here uses giFT p2p can u pls help me?

<0> _jason: unable to lock administratoion directory
<8> mageknight: did you use sudo?
<0> yes
<0> i'll paste it to be extact
<8> mageknight: do you have synaptic open at the same time?
<8> mageknight: it's ok, I know the error
<0> heres the url http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13821
<0> yes
<8> mageknight: you have to close synaptic, because it uses the same database as apt-get
<12> Is there anything I can do to help stem the tide of people trying to brute force p***words through ssh?
<0> ok
<13> ext3 run better than jfs?
<8> ahmeni: use ssh keys instead
<12> _jason: I encourage my users to use ssh keys, but it's not viable for all of them
<14> ahmeni, disable p***wd login, and use public key
<14> ahmeni, have a look at fail2ban
<13> or run ssh on a nonstandard port (security by obcsurity :P )

<17> man its good to use ubuntu again, tried fedora out, I couldnt get my wireless to work at all, in ubuntu two minutes and it was up
<18> i'm installing the updates on drapper (flight 7). it's been installing acpi-support for about 20 minutes now. i think it's stuck. what should i do?
<19> kill it
<20> newpers: #ubuntu+1 for dapper support
<19> and do dpkg --configure -a
<18> Flannel: it's dead quiet
<20> newpers: oh, fair enough.
<18> :)
<18> Whyvas: what's that last command do?



<19> fixes stuff
<18> Whyvas: sorry, but what do i kill? i'm not use to this packaging system
<3> newpers: configures all packages that are unpacked but not yet configured
<3> (man dpkg) ;)
<15> can someone tell me how to change teh permissions of a folder to make it writeable by the current user?
<21> l_ which folder?
<8> l_: what directory exactly?
<19> are you using synaptic?
<18> Whyvas: all I did was click that little icon in the top that downloads and installs the updates
<19> ah
<19> not sure what that one is called
<18> There's a window open that says "Applying Changes" and has a progress bar, but i can't close it
<19> ok
<18> so i ps awwfux, but i don't see anything
<18> that i would know to kill
<19> right click on your panel up top
<8> update-manager probably
<19> add item
<21> newpers, try clicking rapidly on the main window for the application..see if it force a quit
<19> force quit
<19> under desktop and windows
<22> newpers: Hit Alt and F2 together. Then type in xkill. Your cursor will change. Click on the window that seems to be 'hung' and it will die
<19> then click on that, then on the window
<8> oh yes, force quit may do it more nicely
<23> Anyone know how to disable hotplug?
<23> Or stop it from hanging?
<23> It's because of my Nvidia card.
<23> And frankly, I don't hink hotplug is needed.
<10> oh my god never taking another on call job
<18> i think i got it with sudo kill -9 dpkg.id (which just resumed everything)
<8> killing dpkg processes isn't really good though :/
<22> njdavid: if you want to stop hotplug, I would suggest the command 'sudo invoke-rc.d hotplug stop' And to ensure it doesn't load on bootup execute 'sudo update-rc.d -f hotplug remov
<3> bravo, harisund
<23> Can I copy and paste that verbatim?
<23> Erm
<22> Yes. Whatever is between the quotes is a command you will need to execute on the terminal.
<24> anyone alive?
<22> And the last command should be 'sudo update-rc.d -f hotplug remove'
<23> harisund, It abrupty end "'sudo update-rc.d -f hotplug remov"
<22> woow I am :)
<22> njdavid typo :)
<24> harisund: I have installed ubuntu 5.10 5x now, and it still hasn't asked me for a root p***wd.. and i cannot root.. what is the matter with it
<20> !tell wooow about root
<22> woow There are no 'root' accounts on Ubuntu. The first user that you have created has root permissions and can execute commands as root by prepending the command with 'sudo'
<22> woow you should have got a message pointing you towards a webpage where you can read how administrator accounts are handled in Ubuntu
<24> Yes..
<24> THank you
<3> wooow: nothing is the matter with it
<24> uhh
<24> wth
<22> wooow I am guessing you must have had experience with other Linuces out there, eh?
<24> now it's denying remote access...
<22> What happened?
<22> remote access?
<25> actually there is a root account. :P its just that direct logging in to it is disabled by default.
<26> wooow have you installed the ssh server?
<24> harisund: I'm more of a FC user..
<22> hmmmm.. Ok :)
<22> What can I say? Welcome to Ubuntu, perhaps?
<24> lol
<24> XD
<20> wooow: ubuntu ships with no ports open, nothing listening, etc.
<3> wooow: what kind of remote access would you like to enable?
<27> any one here using utorrent in ubuntu???
<24> tritium: I want like SSH access..
<20> wooow: install ssh-server ;)
<27> i waqnna use Utorrent in ubuntu can I guys???
<22> wooow You would have to first install the SSH Server. The command you would use is 'sudo apt-get install openssh-server'
<24> uhh
<24> okay
<24> brb
<3> !enter
<4> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and is annoying.
<27> ubotu: utorrent
