<0> Can someone point me to a webpage or tutorial on setting a framebuffer (for a boot straight to a terminal)?
<1> Mortal`: I think you just screwed.. This is why you always make backups of your configuration files ;-P (lesson learn the hardway I guess)
<2> Hi

<4> !ff1.5
<5> You can use firefox 1.5 by following this wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion
<6> !ff1.5
<7> !ff1.5
<3> i've been at that page.. but I'm unable to extract the tar to /opt
<8> another_lemur: Now you understand how I created a system for a non-techy person and did not add a failsafe into it (ie me).....because Im thick! :) Of course, man my brain is tyred! I'm going to still leave it running because he sais that I gave him the p***word, but Im sure(ish) that I looked away and asked him to put one in.... just a bit of pathetic brotherly competition I guess :)
<4> I was first!
<9> Mortal`: sudo aptitude purge apache && sudo aptitude install apache (or some such command)
<2> I've a pcmcia cardbus with chip acx111, but when I insert it, from dmesg I don't see any message
<7> zcat[1], not on my screen! though I think I still had some login lag...
<2> anyone can suggest me why?
<10> h3sp4wn, I'll try that out



<11> biovore, Jowi sorry for make u wait.... i must install first iptables to use firestarter ???? firestarter its my best option ???
<2> on debian it work
<12> salut
<12> on se souvient de moi ?
<1> cocox: I don't use firestarter here..
<12> je voulait installer amsn
<13> billionaire:yuo haven't got pcmcia loaded
<4> iptables is built into the kernel already.. firestarter just turns it on..
<11> biovore, what do u use ?
<14> cocox: I wasn't waiting:) iptables is already installed for you. firestarter is a frontend for that (a nice graphical/clickable way to configure it)
<1> cocox: cli and iptables
<2> hollerith, yes I've got
<1> cocox: see netfilter.org
<3> O_o
<0> Can someone point me to a webpage or tutorial on setting a framebuffer (for a boot straight to a terminal)?
<13> what's in tail /var/log/messages
<15> hi, how can I determine the subpixel ordering of my lcd?
<2> hollerith, lsmod | grep yenta
<2> yenta_socket 25292 2
<2> rsrc_nonstatic 13376 1 yenta_socket
<2> pcmcia_core 49348 3 pcmcia,yenta_socket,rsrc_nonstatic
<11> biovore, Jowi and ubuntu doesnt come with a personal firewall installed or for install ???
<4> messju: get a magnifying gl*** and take a close look.. that's what I did :)
<1> cocox: there is one built into the kernel on very linux out there
<6> nordle, well, good luck, if your john dictionary has his p***word,t hen you will get it, otherwise it will be some time before it finds it. On the order of weeks or months.
<1> cocox: open a console and type sudo iptables --list
<16> ubotu tell Billionaire -about pastebin
<15> zcat[1]: hehe, I think my son has got one :)
<17> HymnToLife, what do you think?
<4> has to be a good one, those pixels are small!
<14> ubotu, tell cocox about firestarter
<18> Eleaf> about what ?
<14> !info firestarter
<5> firestarter: (gtk program for managing and observing your firewall), section universe/admin, is optional. Version: 1.0.3-1.1ubuntu1 (breezy), Packaged size: 384 kB, Installed size: 1904 kB
<9> I don't think people should use firestarter unless they understand the rules it generates
<15> this is a thinkpad a30 (1600x1200 @ 15"), pixels should be really small :(
<13> billionaire:look up pastebin on the web - is like a site to store reams of clipboard
<17> HymnToLife, where would the ftp log be?
<6> +1 h3sp4wn
<4> anyone tried guarddog for setting up a firewall? comments?
<19> can someone please tell me where i can find this Lib: libdivx4linux
<17> I'm hoping I can take that and be able to tell upon request who is connected.
<6> Eleaf, /var/log
<18> Eleaf> /var/log/yourverycoolftpserver I guess
<17> yea ;p
<17> HymnToLife, I don't see any ftp log directory.
<17> just apache and gdm and some of the system ones.
<2> hollerith, excuse me
<13> as regards firestarter its only a frontend for iptables and no easier imho
<11> Jowi, so ubuntu comes with iptables or firestartert into his kernell ?
<18> Eleaf> check the manpage of your FTP then
<13> billionaire:?
<18> Read The FTP Manpage :p
<20> does anyone know if the iso images for x86 are bootable images? I have tried to install ubuntu via vmware workstation with no luck
<14> cocox: yes.
<11> Jowi, with both installed ????????
<18> Dmo> you need to setup VMware's "BIOS" to boot from the CD
<20> thx
<2> hollerith, because I flood the channel
<18> it is disabled by deault if I remeber well



<20> ur my hero
<20> :)
<13> iptables needs to be enabled in the kernel in order to snoop and mangle packets
<17> alright
<17> HymnToLife, it's /var/log/xferlog
<14> cocox: firestarter uses iptables. you can already use iptables in a terminal. if you want a clickable interface, la zonealarm and similar, install firestarter.
<17> HymnToLife, but that doesn't tell me how many clients are connected at the current time. Just a list of all transfers
<13> actually its called Netfilter - iptables is the command used to configure Netfilter
<13> or shorewall
<21> what do I need to listen to internet streams on Ubuntu?
<13> ethereal
<11> Jowi, ok, and iptables is running by default in my system or i must start it -???
<13> yuo need to configure it
<17> HymnToLife, any other ideas? ;pl
<13> using iptables
<6> linuxcrazy, it depends on the content of the stream
<18> Eleaf> hmm, since FTP is basically remote login, maybe "uptime" will tell you
<3> hmm, i've been to the wiki page for how to update Firefox, but on the page it says to extract the tar into /opt and it seems that I don't have permission to do so..I'm on an account with admin privelages
<17> HymnToLife, but won't it count me as logged in? And also all the times I'm ssh'd in.
<6> ]GoldenDragon, so preface the tar command with sudo
<22> does anyone know anything about laptop lcd's resolutions? cause mine is wrong. its supposed to be 1280X800 but its not even a choice on the screen resolution selector
<18> ell, you'll have to substract all those :p
<17> lol
<18> besides that I don't realy know
<17> but I log in every once in a while.. ;p.
<17> This is a mission critical number I need to count.. ;D
<14> cocox: iptables is installed but inactive. see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IptablesHowTo for more info
<6> ]GoldenDragon, if your command is tar xzCf /opt somefile.tar.gz then you would change it to sudo tar xzCf /opt somefile.tar.gz
<18> well, actually "uptime" isn"t counting FTP logins
<6> Eleaf, which ftp server do you use?
<17> anonymouse, proftp
<6> lol,
<23> hi somebody uses gazpacho with pygtk
<24> I've disabled gdm from running at boot, but I would like to start a framebuffer so I can have some more text on the screen. Does anyone know how do that?
<17> lol
<17> another_lemur, proftpd
<14> cocox: firestarters homepage http://www.fs-security.com/
<25> Is it normal for "Regenerating fonts cache..." to take a long time during a dist-upgrade? Cuz I've been staring at it for like THIRTY minutes and there's nothing going on according to top.
<26> I really neet help
<12> joeyroot> for ?
<26> I can't access my System Administration tools any more :(
<11> Jowi, thank u so much
<14> cocox: np.
<27> is there a way i can upgrade from server to desktop from command line?
<4> hmm.. firestarter is definately the tool to use (first time I actually tried it.. I've just relied on NAT and knowing what services are open..
<12> joeyroot> sudo
<26> I setup my user accounts so that my username called "joey" could not access the System Administration tools. Then, I made a new user called joeyroot. I selected "root" for the group.
<26> Now neither of the users I created will let me access the system admin tools
<12> reinstall
<14> Bung: easy answer "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" will install it all. (kubuntu-desktop for kde)
<26> so, how exactly do I reinstall?
<26> Do I just run the setup CD again?
<12> putain
<14> joeyroot: the user must be in the "admin" group
<28> joeyroot: no need to reinstall really... You can boot the setup CD in recovery mode and just edit away the 'root' p***word temporarily
<17> another_lemur, any ideas?? lol
<13> temery: ou?
<13> :D
<6> Eleaf, oops, one moment, please
<28> joeyroot: or put the users in the 'admin' group as <14> says. Or just boot in ''emergency'' mode ('init=/bin/bash') remount '/' rw and do the edit like that.
<17> lol
<29> hey, i'm a n00b, what do i press to change to another tty session ?
<29> like tty1 tty2 etc.
<17> wubrgamer, ctrl + alt + f1-f6
<28> wubrgamer: CTRL-ALT-Fn
<30> anyone here have a p4c800e with sata raid?
<24> Ctrl+Alt+F1/F2/ . . .
<29> fn ?
<26> I think it said something about a recovery mode in the GRUB menu on boot
<17> ctrl + alt + f7 to get back to your X session wubrgamer
<26> for ubuntu
<31> has anyone successfully setup 1280x800 with the intel 82852/855GM integrated graphics?
