<3> Mustang97, yeah beautiful :)
<4> mabus06 I forgot my servers don't allow root to log in via ssh, but the ubuntu does.
<5> Ekumba, try it...if you don't like it...sudo apt-get remove :)
<2> the guy is in a real hurry because its all his tax documentation
<1> :-)
<6> hi there
<4> mabus06 An I can't find any sign of a rootkit, only the IRC bot they tried to install.
<7> shadeofgrey, where you from?
<3> Mustang97, save the file and you should be right to open that network thingy now
<8> shadeofgrey: How do you like it?
<2> so im under serious pressure to get it all off the disk and onto my usb thumb drive
<9> Trying it now.
<0> doubletwist: irc bot? maybe there is some info about the attacker there?
<3> Mustang97, ***uming you have sudo privileges with this account,, which you should have if you did default install
<10> Concord_Dawn, what's the diff between apt-get and aptitude
<2> Jay_valles: havent used it yet
<2> arrick: Florida why?
<6> need help guys, I'd like to upgrade Firefox (1.0.3 to 1.5.2) cleanly can someone guide me ?
<5> shadeofgrey, use a live cd and see if you can mount the windows partition
<7> just wondering, cause its taxtime in michigan
<11> ubotu: tell fRz[Fu] about firefox1.5
<9> mustard5: Okay, added, saved... tryed to open the networking tab... but no go.
<7> gotta restart the gui Mustang97
<3> Mustang97, ok..from your root terminal...I'll get you to look at your /etc/sudoers file
<12> Where does Gaim save the conversations
<4> mabus06 Yeah there is. I'm copying that data off to peruse later, before I wipe the system.
<3> Mustang97, cat /etc/sudoers
<6> thank you tonyyarusso i'm gonna take a look
<2> duelboot: thats exactly what im going to do.. i juyst need to know how to use the "recover a broken system feature" after i get all his data off...
<3> Mustang97, tell me what the last line in the file is
<9> oh ****.. wait.
<11> FlameSphere: ~/.gaim/logs/yourscreenname/contactscreenname
<13> got a quick question for those that are in a helping mood. I am trying to dual boot ubuntu and xp on a system using RAID1 to mirror the whole deal and I setup all the volumes with the xp installer and now am trying to add ubuntu to it. However linux appears to treat RAID a bit different and I do not even know if this is possible. Can this be done?
<4> mabus06 Thanks for helping me discover the depths of my stupidity. Three little mistakes made in a row that let someone just waltz right into my system. :)
<12> thanks
<9> mustard5 sorry hold on. it said error writing /etc/hosts: Permission denied"
<7> yes Reivec
<7> check out the wik
<5> shadeofgrey, don't know haven't had to do the recover
<7> !dualboot
<14> for wintel https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo :for the Mac https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot
<3> Mustang97, ah ok..so you were at a root prompt?
<4> Happy birthday to me... hehe
<9> mustard5 so I guess their is a diff between the actual ROOT account and the account it had me create when installed.
<0> doubletwist: no problem... I was worried about the possibility of ubuntu being vulnerable to attack... Whenever I leave my sshd server on, I get bruteforced.
<3> Mustang97, yes..the normal account is a user account with sudo privileges
<7> doubletwist, you turning 16, 17 , or 18? happy birthday
<9> ahhhhh
<3> Mustang97, root is disabled by default in ubuntu
<13> arrick, will do, appreciate the link
<15> For those who use Firefox, some nice tweaks: http://www.tweakfactor.com/articles/tweaks/firefoxtweak/4.html
<7> np
<15> :)
<4> arrick Hahaha No I'm turned 32 yesterday.
<3> Mustang97, to fix this I can show you a link to a HOW TO I have written...
<9> mustard5: what is the command to switch users in terminal.
<4> arrick And yet I haven't learned English yet apparrently.
<7> older than you sound doubletwist haha
<7> why not?
<9> mustard5: that would work too
<3> Mustang97, well without your sudo privileges you can't do it atm
<11> Mustang97: su newuser
<16> Mustang97, su username
<9> yea that.
<9> wtf.. doest he root account default its p*** or something?
<17> can anyone tell me how to replace the ubuntu logo for gnome... i installed the garganuan icon set, but it still uses the ubuntu logo in place of the 'foot'
<13> arrick, that link doesn't seem to mention anything about RAID1, which is the bulk of my problem, not dual booting
<4> mabus06 Nope, I've only proven that ubuntu is vulnerable to attacks on stupidity. :)
<12> are the log files for gaim hidden?
<7> !raid
<14> I heard raid is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaidConfigurationHowto
<18> Can i play mpeg videos in Linux???
<3> Mustang97, root is disabled by default in a default install
<16> FlameSphere, ~/.gaim
<19> what is that page that explains how to do decss & java on ubuntu
<20> Hey.
<7> Reivec, ^^
<21> what is the master reset command?
<9> okay
<21> for linux i mean?
<22> ubotu: tell quiet about menulogo
<9> mustard5: thanks.. lemme go get this fixored up
<3> Mustang97, it has no p***word at all (that can be recognised)
<3> Mustang97, I'll get a link for you..hang ten
<11> quiet: I'm trying to remember the wiki page for that... If nothing else I think http://help.ubuntu.com --> Starter guide mentions that.
<17> thanks _jason
<20> I just ran the live version of Ubuntu it automatically recognized my Ineternet does that mean if I do a hard install then it will too?
<7> Marineboi, yes
<9> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
<9> that?
<20> okay cool.
<22> quiet: if you rename/delete the file you get the foot back. If you replace it, you get whatever you replaced it with. You may have to 'killall gnome-panel' for it to take effect
<12> thank you
<3> Mustang97, nope..you need to fix your /etc/hosts file :)
<3> Mustang97, one second..still looking :)
<23> can someone tell me a few good firewalls i can consider installing?
<11> _jason: If you rename it you get the foot back? Is there a file listing icons by priority somewhere?
<3> Mustang97, ok, well I think I can explain it actually
<23> !firewall
<14> Ubuntu has, like every other linux distribution, firewalling built into the kernel. A simple frontend to this firewall is firestarter, which can be installed via synaptic.
<7> ub0ti, you dont actually need on with ubuntu
<21> my GUI won't load up when I start Ubuntu. It comes up with a dos screen. any help?
<3> Mustang97, you know when you boot up with grub...you have a 'Recovery Mode' option?
<22> tonyyarusso: I don't know of one
<7> mthakur, type startx and tell me what it does
<24> mthakur: that's not dos, of course ;)
<25> anyway to voice chat on yahoo ?
<26> hi, in GNOME whenever i want to save something, for example from firefox, and I get the file browser window opened from 'browse for other folders', I get a so small window, I'd like set it to a bigger size by default, any ideas ?
<9> mustard5: yes.
<3> Mustang97, k
<3> Mustang97, well if you use that and let it go through..it will drop you to a root prompt...
<3> Mustang97, from there you can use nano /etc/hosts to edit the /etc/hosts file
<6> tonyyarusso, the tutorial for firefox1.5 you gave me is nice but I don't have any folders in the /opt/ directory
<9> mustard5: Okay, restarting the pc now.
<11> kimo: The in-development vv stuff for Gaim already works with yahoo I believe, so if you're comfortable with beta software you could try that.
<3> Mustang97, you would add the hostname..save and then reboot
<11> fRz[Fu]: You have to make them.
<23> i know- i am trying to remove it for good
<21> o lol
<21> ye then it loads up.
<23> i get NAT errors on azureus
<21> but how do u make it default?
<9> mustard5: Is their a way to make it were I can use root access with my user name? or is that bad?
<6> tonyyarusso, "cd /opt/firefox/plugins/" I can't even proceed
<3> Mustang97, sure..once you have sudo back we can do that
<9> mustard5: okay
<7> hey guys how do you make the gui load by default?
<11> fRz[Fu]: 'mkdir /opt/firefox/ && mkdir /opt/firefox/plugins'
<11> fRz[Fu]: With sudo actually.
<6> tonyyarusso, now trying, ty
<27> mkdir -p /opt/firefox/plugins should work too :)
<3> arrick, instead of startx?
<11> Chousuke: What's the -p do?
<27> if I remember the switch correctly
<27> tonyyarusso: creates parent directories too
<11> Chousuke: Oh cool.
<27> iirc.
<27> :P
<21> i have installed XAMPP. But how do u make it work?
<21> eh?
<9> mustard5: Okay. I am in root account in recovery mode.
<3> Mustang97, k
<3> Mustang97, nano /etc/hosts
<9> I need todo the nano /etc/hostname or somfin
<9> yes.. hosts
<7> mustard5, yes
