<0> worst case scenario, the moment they get a login, pull the plug
<1> DarkED, well last time we spoke i was to install dapper remeber =) hehe well that didnt work so good. but thats not my problem now. i rebooted my server and suddenly 1 drive is missing and my login is no longer in "sudo list" ?
<2> how do I do that?
<3> hallo, what are the differences between ctrl+alt+F1 and ctrl+alt+F2 ?
<4> its interesting how some windows-specific things work better on ubuntu for me
<5> oKtosiTe, im off to get a couple hours sleep. gl and g'nite peeps! 8)
<2> Not pull the plug; deny them from iptables/firewall
<6> hastesaver, reactive puts you in a worse position it is most likely a broken and cracked windows box trying a 2 year old problem
<7> Greets!
<7> Any one able to help with an FTP question?
<5> ehh how i get okosite in my post? lol must be tired heh
<8> almenfors: i know nothing about the servers
<8> almenfors: and i have no idea what your hdd problem is, except maybe something wrong in your /etc/fstab
<0> gondlir: only one way to find out
<1> DarkED, naa ive been running it on a normal install for now. to learn more =)
<2> ompaul, you mean a two-year old ssh flaw that's gone now?



<7> I would like to allow someone to have ftp access to my home system.. can I do that?
<9> Help
<2> I can just wait for him to go through the alphabet (currently on tony, vanessa,...)
<6> that never existed in a release edition of ubuntu :)
<9> could someone explain to me the next step on this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2780&highlight=dell+8600
<10> 3 more days til dapper ;)
<0> man, microsoft has it easy. They throw enough money at the problem, and they can package a bunch of stuff by default with their OS
<1> DarkED, the hd isnt listed in fstab and i have a script to run that might help me out. but i cant run it since im no longer in "sudo list" ??
<11> hello
<2> ompaul, so I shouldn't ban him from firewall or iptables? (What did reactive mean?)
<10> Anusien: and ubuntu do it for free :P
<11> re-hello
<0> Well, it appears like I don't have the proper mp3 codecs
<7> anyone able to help with my question?
<6> hastesaver, reactive is attack the box
<9> well i guess ill work on it tomorrow
<0> but then again I had to do apt-get to install gcc, so who knows
<6> hastesaver, it is considered as illegal
<10> Anusien: im sure someone here will be able to resolve that for you
<0> Gondlir: Does said person have an account on your computer?
<0> McNutella: Yeah, as soon as it finishes upgrading to Dapper, I'm sure I can find it in Synaptic
<7> Anusien, not yet
<2> ompaul, oh, ok, of course. I wasn't considering that :) (Beyond whois and nslookup, just out of idle curiousity)
<7> I am starting from scratch
<4> can anyone recommend an irssi theme which fits into default ubuntu nicely?
<2> ompaul, I think I'll just switch my router off and on
<3> what are the differences between ctrl+alt+F1 and ctrl+alt+F2 ?
<12> are there any secondary ubuntu repositories? It seems like there are some programs that are not available in the default repos?
<13> 5
<0> g-nome: they are different connections
<8> almenfors: i have no idea what sudo list is
<12> specifically I'm looking for qGo, which is fully open source, and is available in debian...
<14> ompaul yeah, the screen is just being black.. I let it stand so for 1 hour, nothing happens.. I think it is 5.10
<9> you get 7 tty's gnome
<0> Like, I know that switching to Linux will make me a better person, but I can't help but remember how easy it was to use my mouse in Windows. Wi-Fi was still a pain though
<7> Anusien// Are you able to help?
<8> i have a question
<0> g-nome: tty = teletype, which is basically a connection to your computer. you have 7 of them, so you could be connected as 7 different accounts at the same type
<9> wifi thru ubuntu rocks
<12> Anusien, switching to linux only makes you a better person in the eyes of people who have already joined the cult :P
<0> in other words, people I care about?
<0> Gondlir: Ubuntu has several different ftp daemons available through Synaptic. If you give the person a shell account and you run an ftpd, they can get in to that account and access those files. otherwise, things get trickier
<12> Anusien, sure :)
<0> Gondlir: This is intentionally vague because which ever ftp server you choose to run has better documentation available
<7> ok... so then I go to synaptic and type FTP and see what comes up?
<0> synaptic is graphical. You can browse through the directories
<15> twobitsprite, you need to add the universe repository to get qGo - see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto
<16> I'm having a problem, can anyone help?
<10> maybe :)
<4> not without knowing the problem no
<0> There's only one way to find out
<10> heh
<4> ;)
<17> InevitableGlitch, don't ask to ask, just ask.
<16> Ok, I have ubuntu running on a box I'm using as a file/print server, it doesn't have a monitor attached, I am controlling it using VNC, however, because there is no monitor it sets the Resolution at 640 x480 and won't let me change it.
<10> I have an itchy arse..
<16> How do I change it?
<17> You need to change your xorg.conf
<0> well, here goes the true test of my processor, compiling mplayer
<18> does anyone know if its possible to view an NTFS drive with ubuntu???
<16> xorg.conf, where is that?



<19> anyone here using ndiswrapper?
<4> MadMerC: probably, duno how though :)
<0> MadMerC it is. Try ntfscat or ntfs{TAB} to see all the options
<17> InevitableGlitch, try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
<7> Anusien// Any suggestions for a newbie to look for?
<20> MadMerC, http://ubuntuguide.org/#mountunmountntfs
<18> Dybber: thanx
<21> yes, you can view it
<22> Is there a way I can ask sshd to ban an IP address that has been getting too many wrong attempts?
<17> InevitableGlitch, just accept the default options and when it comes to screen resolution, select only the ones you want to view with via VNC. Then you will have to restart X on that machine: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restaart
<20> I have a problem with Totem (is this the wrong place to ask?). The error is here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/14761
<17> InevitableGlitch, sorry that's: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
<22> Dybber, try killing esd and starting it again, or try removing your /home/dybber/.esd_auth (ignore the Gtk-CRITICAL warnings, I see them everywhere and I don't think they mean anything :)
<21> yes, gtk critical warnings are anything but
<21> first off, how do you reconcile the words critical and warning heh
<23> I have a issue with wine, is there a way to stop it Full screening an application that, well needs to be fullscreened. Trying to play arcade games it painfull, cause my reso jumps down to 640x480 ( or whatever it is ) and would much rather a small playable window on my desktop .. How can i suppress the full screen call ?
<4> Hobbsee: how did you get such a host? :>
<21> hiya Hobbsee
<19> ok I take it no one is using ndiswrapper then any tips on setting up my wireless network card total newbie to ubuntu
<24> i know this has been asked already but im having some problems fixing my x-server issues from upgrading to dapper any takers?
<9> how can i change the attributes settings on the /etc/modules file?
<9> its read only and i need to add a few lines
<7> Where do things go once Synaptic has installed them?
<20> hastesaver, the /home/dybber/.esd_auth error disappeared but it still wont start. I also get an error in a lilttle popup window saying that video-outdata is in use by another program.
<23> chmod 777 /etc/modules
<25> rixxon: by being a member. see http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/newmember

<23> ^ for read-only
<9> thx
<1> spikeb, and who is that =)
<7> I am officially lost.. but willing to learn
<21> almenfors: psychiatrist, maybe?
<21> almenfors: heh
<26> I am trying to intall dapper on a strange box - just for fun ;-) and it hangs during the initial boot from the install cd - can someone point me to a good start point - I am a newbie to this distro.
<1> spikeb, haha well thats not my problem actually.. or atleast for now. if i dont get this problem fixed ill need one for sure.
<21> almenfors: what's up?
<0> So appearantly trying to use stuff like gcc and vim while upgrading doesn't work
<9> it wont let me save :(
<21> heh Anusien
<27> <26> did you check the md5 sum after you dl it?
<1> spikeb, well i was acessing my ubuntu using ftp. thought it was slow. so i decided to reboot. after reboot im suddenly not in "sudo list" anymore?
<21> um
<21> hmm
<26> <27> Yes, it installs on another machine.
<23> alanha, Try installing with the live disk. ( normally a lot more buggy.. but might not hang ? )
<27> <26> try disabling some stuff.. like usb acpi etc etc
<21> almenfors: ok, do you have a livecd?
<27> linux acpi=off nousb .. brbr i dont rememer all the syntaxes
<1> spikeb, nopes its a real install
<22> Dybber, try 1. killall esd; esd 2. logging out and back in 3. rebooting
<1> spikeb, been running without problems for 8 days.
<21> almenfors: i meant do you have a livecd around that you can use
<7> I could use some further ***istance on the FTP Server question...
<1> spikeb, well im running breezy but i have dapper live.. will that work?
<21> almenfors: yeah
<28> i am on amd64 and have to install a 32bit package. it needs libSDL-1.2.so.0 that is on /usr/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0 but this package seems to be looking on /usr/lib32/libSDL-1.2.so.0 .. i have to install the 32bit version too? how? it might broke the package system..
<26> <27> yes the machine is a real problem one - took me ages to get Gentoo working on it so I tried that already, how can I get a verbose boot ? Some trace would help.
<1> spikeb, ok what do u want me to do?
<21> almenfors: what you need to do is boot from the live cd, mount your hard drive, and edit your sudoers file
<7> Mostly How can I offer an FTP connection for someone to my system so they can upload.
<29> my firefox wont start up after I installed the automatix pack _
<2> Gondlir, install ftpd ?
