<0> yeah
<0> a liveCD
<1> Sven_vB: i never ever managed to get the webinterface. it never accepted username/p***word no matter what i tried. something is faulty with ubuntu regarding that.
<2> ChrisCF: ask him to run sudo apt-get update he cant
<3> so give him an alternative
<4> hexi, right, sudo apt-get update failed silently, no error messages or output. ..I don't see anything in /etc/var/log .. Where should I look?
<2> why cant he he enabled su
<5> Abo: thx!
<6> that's funny
<3> why can't he sudo?
<7> joeyroot yup boot up with that edit /etc/groups job done
<2> ChrisCF: ask hiom
<6> My root login is enabled, and sudo apt-get update works perfectly for me.
<2> he cant do it
<8> gnomefreak: ever hear of sudo apt-get update (or any other sudo commands) failing silently, w/o output?
<3> why not?



<0> what do I change in /etc/groups
<2> joeyroot: go back to a $ terma nd run sudo apt-get update please
<9> Jowi: i cheated it by adding a user to groups "shadow" and "lpadmin". afterwards, this user's login was valid for CUPS
<10> Noob alert! I need help installing my raid so I can install Ubuntu
<4> hexi, the gnome sudo thing gives and error message. What was it called again? gksudo?
<8> Sebboh: yes
<11> joshdoe: controller-based RAID?
<0> gnomefreak: ok i did
<12> joshdoe: uh. did you address me?
<2> joeyroot: does it run?
<10> yes
<13> anyone knows about a good english-spanish dictionary for gnome ???????
<6> Hexidigital: Are you in the sudoers file?
<10> It is a promise fasttrack on an aus p4c800e
<0> nothing happens
<8> ChrisCF: lemme check, i think so
<2> ty
<4> Chris, Where is that file?! I've been looking for it.
<14> hi
<4> I knew that it existed. logins.def?
<7> joeyroot add yourself to the group admin
<11> joshdoe: what trouble are you having? should be fairly straightforward in the controller interface to set up a RAID array
<10> I verifeied that the raid is running in bios and the raid array comes up as active when posting
<6> Hexidigital: Also, run it, then run "echo $!" (IIRC)
<14> can sameone give me help on ubuntu please ?
<2> ChrisCF: now answer why he cant sudo now ;)
<7> sudo will work then
<2> it disables sudo
<15> hello all
<11> joshdoe: then y ou should be able to install ubuntu using LVM just fine
<3> joey(not)root:so if you can sudo what is the problem?
<1> Sven_vB: are you sure the correct driver is in use? i had to install gimpprint(or gutenprint as it is now called) for my epson to work even though it detected the "correct" (but obviously incorrect) driver using the gnome-cups-manager. i have not tried any other cups interface than that one i'm afraid
<10> UNfortunately the drives show up as seperate drives under ubuntu
<15> i was in here a few days ago cuz my sound stopped working
<16> quentez: possibly if you ask a question
<6> gnomefreak: "Enabling rot disables sudo" is BS.
<8> ChrisCF: no, no... wasn't me, Sebboh is having problems
<4> wtf is rot?
<11> joshdoe: try using LVM
<10> I think I need to load the promise linux driver
<15> the problem is weirder than i thought: i have sound in firefox, but nothing else.
<14> what is the comand to p*** of user to root ?
<8> ChrisCF: btw, i'm in admins group, not sudoers
<2> ChrisCF: ask him why sudo apt-get update doesnt work
<9> Jowi: i copied the ppd file from a machine that successfully printed with this hardware
<17> Hello, how do I totally remove a program I installed using apt, I want to remove all of the programs settings and do a fresh install of it
<10> what is lvm?
<7> sudo bash
<1> Sven_vB: super
<16> quentez: explain
<4> yes, ask me. =)
<18> TTT_Travis, sudo apt-get remove progname
<6> Sebboh: It's what happens when you type "root" too quickly for your keyboard :)
<3> logical volume manager
<4> oh.
<19> cocox, i think you can use the gnome dictionary in accessories
<14> i have installed ubuntu in server mod and i'm trying installing the gnome package
<17> Abo, but that doesn't remove the config files and stuff, like when I reinstall it it still has the same configuation and stuff
<10> ok can you give me the exact steps? Someone before told me that I should not have 2 drives show up
<20> I was missing the gstreamer-ugly-multiverse pacakge.



<21> anyone know the location of the c header files in dapper?
<20> thanks for the help
<16> quentez: yes
<7> apt-get install gnome
<21> vmware is freaking out >:(
<7> sudo apt-get install gnome
<11> joshdoe: logical volume manager. it will abstract the hard drives so that the system sees one (or more) volume(s) on which to put a filesystem
<4> ChrisCF, ok, from the top: sudo and gksudo fail silently. What's up with that?
<21> gnome-desktop
<10> Do I create 1 partition on each disk?
<11> at least it should.
<7> yes that
<18> TTT_Travis, no idea then, sorry, wait untill someone else answers (I'll learn too ;))
<9> can someone test my CUPS when I route it onto the internet?
<21> you need to sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop, otherwise it'll freak out while trying to install just a few of the files needed
<14> yes but he ask me for a p***word
<11> joshdoe: no...when you run the ubuntu installer...what does the partitioner ask you for?
<7> back to ifolders please all look at them
<8> Sebboh: did you screw around with the root account also?
<4> ttt_travis, apt-get --purge remove program.
<7> tell me what you think
<10> It asks me to partitn the disks
<22> where do I find the logfile that tells me which applicatoins are started when plugging in a device ?
<4> hex, no! Fresh install.
<6> Sebboh: It won't be because root is enabled. I know this, because I have three machines sat in front of me which say otherwise.
<8> Sebboh: ok
<11> joshdoe: it should give you a bunch of options
<23> Okay, my / partition has run out of space now I can't install anything to it. Is it possible to resize my big /home partition to create a new partitioni to, say, move my /lib directory to, since that's the largest directory on / ?
<21> so...anyone know the location of the c header files in ubuntu?
<14> what is the root p***word ?
<16> phanter: /var/log/syslog probably
<6> Sebboh: Run it again, then "echo $?"
<14> i haven't set it
<10> The first thing it asks me is to partition disks
<16> phanter: or dmesg
<24> ok, now I have a problem with Firefox. It wont start!! It just spawns in the bar at the bottom of the screen, and disappears 10 seconds later.
<4> Chris, Ok, I don't know what 'root enabled' means, but, this is a fresh install. =) ok, I'll echo the error level, one sec.
<3> quentez: nice try
<10> What should i select for partiton
<16> Dybber-: type firefox in a terminal and see what errors it spawns
<11> Steggy: you can put a new partition/drive anywhere you want...just mount it to a temp location and cp -af the files from the location you are going to replace...then change your fstab accordingly and mount
<18> how can i install new fonts to ubuntu (and get firefox to use them)?
<8> gotta go to work... nite folks
<1> Abo: copy the fonts you want to your /home/user/.fonts direcroty
<1> nite Hexidigital
<25> hey, can anyone look at/confirm/fix bug #47002 (https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/47002) ?
<4> ChrisCF, 141, and sudo isn't prompting me for a p***word anymore. wtf? I do sudo apt-get update and it just returns me to a prompt. with $?=141
<6> 141 ...
<4> peace hexi
<6> -128 for "exit with signal"
<6> signal 13
<10> Sparkletone can you chat me so I can follow? Too much traffic
<6> SIGPIPE
<24> mwe, nothing happens
<23> sparkleytone: How do I go about making a new partition, since my disk is already entirely partitioned (though I do have a ton of free space in /home.) I tried using GParted, but I could figure anything out with it.
<11> joshdoe: it doesn't highlight when i type your name?
<6> Sebboh: Check /etc/sudoers to see if your regular user is listed.
<16> Dybber-: no error, no nothing, just silence?
<4> Chris, damn, I was looking for that file.
<11> Steggy: if its entirely partitioned...you need a new HD no?
<10> hang on
<24> mwe, yes silence :)
<16> Dybber-: that's really odd
<16> Dybber-: I can't help you with that
<23> sparkleytone: So, then, there's no way to actually resize partitions then?
<11> Steggy: yeah you can. qtparted would probably work, altho i use plain parted
<6> What might help is possibly using gdb to figure out what is being processed when the pipe breaks, but that's Another Story.
<26> gnomefreak: Were you talking about the web interface ? you can just use /etc/printcap
<16> Dybber-: well does ps -e|grep firefox return anything?
<21> ok, does anyone know where the C header files are? I need em for vmware >:P ever since I upgraded to dapper, it's been freaking out on install
<10> Sparkletone can you see my chat request?
<21> can't find the header files for my kernel
<27> hi, need some help here, i installed dapper rc, tried to install the nvidia-legacy binary driver, didnt work x wouldnt start after that, and I rm xorg.conf because i thought there was a backup, but apparently there isnt... what can I do to repair this?
<23> sparkleytone: Thanks :)
