<3> chaos_of_apocaly: you are moving a folder from here to there, yhou move the wrong foldre

<4> ok
<4> thanks for explaining
<10> Disabling my soundcard helped for Ubuntu 5.10 i386. After booting it didn't start the X-Server because it found no devices and/or displays. So I thought I'd try the 64 Bit version. That one still hangs at NET: Registered protocol family 2
<11> n8
<12> how can I find out the package that includes disks-admin ("Disk Manager" application)
<13> hello all
<12> linuxamoeba21: hi
<13> i'm thinking about getting a second SATA hard drive and putting OSX86 on it for dual-booting... if i just unlug the ubuntu HDD, install OSX86 on the new one, and plug them both back in, will ubuntu handle it right
<5> MagicFab gnome-system-tools
<14> hi all again
<15> can i make directories on an ubuntu machine available for sharing to all computers on the network, but require a p***word to access them? samba needs constant restarting and nfs' security is only based on ip.
<7> MagicFab: dpkg -S disks-admin
<5> syndicate47 what do you mean samba needs constant restarting? thats what I use for network sharing
<14> !nvidia
<16> Help about installing the nVidia drivers on Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
<17> syndicate47: you could use sfs or sshfs
<18> syndicate47, can't you tell samba to query for p***word?
<19> hey, can someone help me set up ssh?
<20> syndicate47: nfs security is not based only on IP, you need a low port too ;). Why are you restarting samba?
<7> !ssh
<16> it has been said that ssh is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SSHHowto or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AdvancedOpenSSH
<12> Jowi: tx!
<7> np MagicFab
<15> NoUse, bbrazil i don't know why but the samba shares dissappears from the network after about 12 hours
<13> any thoughts on above dual boot question? i just want to be sure that the other OS's loader doesn't eat grub or something
<5> syndicate47 have you check your samba logs?
<15> trappist, i can't get sshfs to mount a directory so that both root and i have access?
<21> i have problems with myspl php and apache
<22> hi
<21> i want to return the configs to default values
<21> how can i do that
<22> what command can i use to setup the lm-sensors package?
<23> watch out for sshfs over bumpy links... some apps might make you lose data
<23> apt-get install lm-sensors ?
<15> NoUse, no, there are too many logs and i don't know which to check
<21> removing and reinstalling all that programs can solve my problem
<22> not download
<21> ?
<22> to set it up
<22> to run
<24> http://www.dshield.org/ipinfo.php?ip=169.254.125.88&Submit=Submit <--can someone tell me if that is a WAN address not a LAN address
<25> Can someone answer me a question? Is CUPS only used for printers that are on a network?
<7> !tell crazy_penguin about sensors
<22> thx
<5> bk no, local printers too



<5> syndicate47 pastebin /var/log/samba/log.smbd
<13> can anyone help me with dual booting via a new hard drive?
<20> ruzgar: if you purge them (apt-get --purge) that'll work
<5> !tell linuxamoeba21 about dualboot
<20> tatters: that address space is ***igned to Microsoft, it is used for IPv4 autoconfiguration
<3> bbrazil: you aren't talking about 169.254 are you?
<13> nouse, i already read those... doesn't quite cover my issue: i already have ubuntu and want to install a new hard drive with a new os for dual booting
<20> paradizelost: yip
<3> i don't even know why they bother to use that. it never gets you anywhere anyways.../
<3> i'd rather get an error. i ***ume that that address is an error.....
<20> tatters: with v4, there's no such thing as a WAN address. Only looking at the physical network can tell you that
<24> bbrazil: thnx for info I keep getting SCAN UPnP service discover attempt in my snort log from a cpl of address in that range
<5> linuxamoeba21 do you want to copy your current ubuntu install over to the new dirve?
<21> bbrazil i have removed them in snyaptic with "compltely remove" option is that works too?
<20> ruzgar: I don't know to be honest, but it sounds right
<3> i have seen some places that use that as their "network" address, they just don't set up a dhcp server...
<3> tatters: its called APIPA
<3> http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/A/APIPA.html
<13> nouse, i have ubuntu, and want to install osx86 for dual boot... i was going to get a second physical drive for ease, but wasn't sure how ubuntu would handle it bootloader-wise
<21> i cant remove phpmyadmin package
<21> that gives error 127
<3> linuxamoeba21: are you trying to load OSX on a PC other than a mac?
<5> linuxamoeba21 if the drive its on now remains the primary drive it should be fine
<5> linuxamoeba21 otherwise, you might need to run a grub recovery
<26> Hey! i'm new with Ubuntu! could someone plz help me?
<20> ruzgar: hmm, I'm going to guess that apache was removed before it?
<27> hi all
<3> !ask
<16> Just ask. Questions in the channel should be specific, informative, complete, concise and on-topic. Information like hardware make, model and output of commands that you used pasted onto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org is important.
<13> paradizelost, yeah its osx86... i have it running in vmware but native-ness would be nicer
<27> how i can add to my desktop a new hard drive icon?
<13> nouse, yeah i was planning to keep the ubuntu drive primary
<21> bbrazil all of them removed but i cant remove phpmyadmin packages
<3> sparkling: the easy way is to mount the hard drive to a folder in /media
<21> for that reason i cant update my ubuntu
<26> How to install a program?:P
<5> linuxamoeba21 the trick will be when you install OSX86, it will probably try to overrite the mbr
<20> ruzgar: hmm, try it from the command line
<5> linuxamoeba21 not sure what to tell you there
<27> paradizelost i've mounted it..and i've set in fstab the automount at boot
<26> How to install a program?:P
<27> but i want also the icon on the desk
<7> panzer: the easiest way it to use the synaptic package manater
<3> sparkling: but did you mount it in /media/?
<27> yes
<0> ubotu tell panzer -about synaptic
<13> nouse, if i unplug the ubuntu drive, install osx on the new drive, then plug them both in, do you think grub/ubuntu will make it work?
<3> sparkling: when it mounts, it should autmatically make the icon
<5> linuxamoeba21 grub won't automatically detect it, you'll have to manually at it to your grub menu
<3> sparkling: what filesystem?
<5> linuxamoeba21 but ubuntu should boot ok
<13> nouse, as long as it doesn't eat grub, i'm cool
<27> ntfs
<21> bbrazil that give error "invalid operation phpmyadmin" what should be the right command ?
<3> sparkling: you need to make sure you added the user,umask=000 option to the fstab line
<20> ruzgar: dpkg -P phpmyadmin
<3> can you paste the line in fstab for the drive?
<21> bbrazil same error
<21> i cant find any document about error 127 on wiki
<20> ruzgar: anything more to the error?
<27> ok i check
<14> installing the 3d acc drivers for nvidia is a breeze
<20> ruzgar: it's probably the postremove script
<3> |Sivik|: you use easyubuntu?
<3> or the .sh from their site?
<14> paradizelost, do what?
<14> paradizelost, what is easyubuntu?
<21> bbrazil that gives "subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 127
<21> "
<3> !tell |Sivik| about easyubuntu
<14> paradizelost, no, i used the howto
<27> yes paradizelost wait
<3> ruzgar: did you try a dpkg --configure -a
<3> ?
