[03:41] hi guys [03:41] any linux coders here [05:25] When I edit a file in gedit (gedit ~/.fluxbox/menu &), I get the following error message: Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_window_get_pointer: assertion `GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed [05:25] What does that mean? [05:27] Everything works fine, I just don't understand why I receive the message [05:27] Space-Duck: i wouldnt worry about it.. AFAIK, those are just messages, not necessarily errors [05:28] launch anything from the terminal, and you'll more than likely see something scary looking ;) === head_v is now known as head_victim === Axlin_ is now known as Axlin [14:25] Hello, I can't mount my usb mp3 player anymore, it says not authorized. And it used to work, when I had ubuntu 11.10 without encripted home folder. [14:29] Airward: so.. you *had* ubuntu 11.10 without encrypted /home? and now you have ubuntu 11.10 *with* encrypted /home? [14:29] y [14:29] i still dont really understand how it works [14:31] Airward: i say, choose your battles, and take things one at a time... either read about encryption, or make the device mount [14:32] Airward: sometimes its just permissions issues [14:33] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB#Manually_Mounting [14:33] Airward, Just out of curiosity, why do you feel that you 'need' an encrypted /home? [14:33] Sidewinder1: i went to it this last time for security... if i lose my laptop [14:34] Or were you just playing with or exploring encryption? [14:34] Lost/stolen lappy; that makes sense. [14:35] i hope [14:35] i havent gotten around to trying it... faking the scenario and seeing how it works [14:36] I was just wondering why Airward encrypted his.. [14:37] Perhaps the same reason as you. [14:50] I was kinda exploring, was reading about it earlier a bit, and when i was installing ubuntu again, i just chose encript to see where that will get me... [14:50] Link helped [14:51] it does not mount usb auto couse of encryption? [14:54] Airward: not sure, now you know it is capable of booting, and you can go from there [14:54] i woudnt think the encryption would be the issue [14:55] i have automount working with encryption just fine [15:00] i have a domain on a vps, i want to access the virtual host using ip, i remember it used to be "ip.ip.ip.ip/~username" is that correct? becuase it's not working, do i need to enable something in apache or what? [15:00] holstein, thanks. [15:03] coalwater: depends on the setup.. my box is like... http://ipaddress ..then i see apache [15:03] well, http://72.29.68.228 what do i do from here [15:04] this server has cpanel [15:04] coalwater: on what port? [15:04] cpanel? default cpanel port [15:05] try http://72.29.68.228:2082/ [15:05] i get a login there... not sure if thats what you need though [15:05] i know, this isn't the problem [15:06] this server has several domains [15:07] i want to access one by ip/user [15:07] instead of domain name [15:09] you have to have it setup that way on the backend AFAIK [15:18] holstein: any idea what do i need to enable/ setup [15:22] coalwater: i feel like it depends on the server and the hosting, but im not familiar enough to definitively comment [15:24] how can I see if I have or do not have permision to mount usb player and how to change it? [15:25] Airward: i would probably just try mounting as normal user [15:25] it should auto mount most of the time [15:27] yeah, it used to, holstein gave me a link how to manually mount it, but when i umount it I have to do this manualy again every time... [15:27] what do you mean "normal" user? [15:27] I have only one user... So it sound like "normal" user to me [15:30] Airward: did you sudo umount it? [15:30] if so, thats not mounting as normal user... i would just umount it, and try writing to it [15:30] if you can, you have permissions [15:32] mount: only root can do that [15:33] i tried to mount now as a user [15:33] hmmm... maybe thats a valid message though [15:34] Airward: are you up to date with upgrades? [15:34] what mp3 player is this? [15:34] i really think the encryption is *not* the issue [15:35] it might not be, but I absolutely have no idea what can (couse it use to work alright...) [15:35] logic [15:35] logik* [15:38] Airward: well, are you up to date with package updates? [15:38] kernel updates could cause that, the way some sandisk mp3players are setup can do that [15:38] it says software up to date [15:39] i found this on the link you gave [15:39] Configuring Automounting [15:39] To enable or disable automount open a terminal and type gconf-editor followed by the [Enter] key. [15:39] Browse to /apps/nautilus/preferences/media_automount. [15:39] Airward: did you mess with it? before or after you came here? [15:39] but there is no /apps/nautilus/preferences/media_automount [15:40] Airward: if you have another USB stick, see that that auto mounts [15:40] before [15:40] if you have another machine, see that the (still to be named) mp3 player automounts there [15:40] my friends creative zen does not mount as well [15:41] yes, but that is an mp3 player, what about just a USB stick? [15:41] no, I dont have usb stick [15:42] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1868803 [15:42] i dont think ^^ that is helpful actually [15:46] do you know anything about this? -->The media_automount key controls whether to automatically mount media. If set to true, then Nautilus will automatically mount media such as user-visible hard disks and removable media on start-up and media insertion. [15:47] i cant find media_automount [15:47] just /apps/nautilus/preferences/media_autorun_x_content_ignore [15:47] Airward: i dont have an 11.10 install of normal ubuntu right now to test with [15:48] and /apps/nautilus/preferences/media_autorun_x_content_open_folder [15:48] Airward: just keep track of what you edit there and know how to revert if you make changes [15:50] Airward, Rename 'file' to 'fileback' than you'll always have a fallback if the new 'file' causes problems. [15:52] thanks [15:53] Airward: I have 11.10 installed ..let me what do you want to confirm/test [15:53] lalatenduM: you cant though... unless you have the (still to be named) usb device that Airward has [15:53] yup u r right [15:53] :/ [15:53] i dont have the USB device..just read that [15:54] :) [15:54] you can see if you have an automount in gconf-editor [15:54] see if its been renamed or moved [15:54] ok [15:57] holstein: Gconf editor is not a default in 11.10 [15:57] lalatenduM: that explains it [15:57] i am installing it noe [15:57] now* [15:58] can you help Airward figure out where the automount settings are in unity? [15:58] yup...no prob [15:59] Airward: ping... lalatenduM has 11.10, and is looking around for the automount settings let lalatenduM know if you *dont* need this information.. thanks [15:59] k [16:00] thanks again [16:00] Airward: i am looking for the setting in 11.10 [16:00] will let you know [16:02] Airward: http://www.upubuntu.com/2011/09/how-to-turn-off-automount-feature-of.html [16:02] you need to do the opposite [16:03] Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System [16:03] /dev/sdb1 * 32 15994879 7997424 b W95 FAT32 [16:03] thats what I got after sudo fdisk -l [16:04] hmm [16:04] i guess its ur usb disk [16:04] just try the link i have given [16:05] oh i havent seen it. just a sec. thnx. [16:07] make sure that you haven't selected the last selection "Never prompt for **" [16:10] yeah, I knew where to find this and it was not selected (still is not)... [16:11] Airward: the USB device should show up in sudo fdisk -l [16:12] i would confirm that the device is auto mounting on another machine [16:12] makes me think its an issue with that (still to be named) usb mp3 player [16:14] it is Logik (i already said so) and i pasted results of sudo ldisk -l for it [16:15] Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System [16:15] /dev/sdb1 * 32 15994879 7997424 b W95 FAT32 [16:15] Airward: i see that now, but i didnt know that was what you were refering to [16:15] sr [16:15] Airward: OK.. so if its showing up there, and its able to me mounted, and not auto mounting, id say look for a bug report, and if there is not one, start one [16:15] not much to be done about it though [16:17] Airward: I would make sure it's unplugged - go to log file viewer - then plug it in and see what messages it gets - I'd look in messages and syslog to start with - might give a clue as to what's going on [16:18] pastebin anything that looks untoward [16:19] yup..the messages from /var/log/syslog will be helpful [16:20] seems like other people have issue with USB too..here is one..http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1868803 [16:21] problem is it used to work on 11.10 [16:22] ohh..I thought you are facing this issue in 11.10.. [16:22] what's gitosis? and what's it for [16:22] Airward: you are in 11.10 right? [16:22] yeah [16:23] it used to work on a box that you are implying the only difference is you now have encryption [16:23] but, i dont think thats what is causing the issue [16:24] I am trying to remember evereything else I did after installing, but can't think of anything... [16:25] Airward: lets just see if anything shows in syslog [16:25] Airward: you can try the live CD you used to install with, and confirm that the logik device is still automounting as expected there [16:25] Airward: i would look in syslog, and anywhere else hobgoblin suggests as well [16:26] only other change I made was to change automatik login on user acc (and now I cant change it back...) [16:26] at least not the same way [16:26] hmmm, i know i have run into an issue where, when auto-login was enabled, wifi access points would not auto-join til i put in a password [16:27] or made some other changes [16:27] thats plausible... more plausible than the encryption i think [16:27] still, you should see that in the log i would expect [16:29] log wier is blan :/ [16:29] completely? [16:30] thats odd [16:30] how can I change automatik login again? [16:30] yeah i know [16:30] Airward: can you open a terminal and paste this command into it cat /var/log/syslog |tail [16:31] I Oct 30 16:06:24 marius-RV410-RV510-S3510-E3510 lightdm: pam_ecryptfs: pam_sm_authenticate: /home/marius is already mounted [16:31] Oct 30 16:06:24 marius-RV410-RV510-S3510-E3510 acpid: client 15631[0:0] has disconnected [16:31] Oct 30 16:06:24 marius-RV410-RV510-S3510-E3510 acpid: client 12747[0:0] has disconnected [16:31] Oct 30 16:06:24 marius-RV410-RV510-S3510-E3510 acpid: client connected from 15631[0:0] [16:31] Oct 30 16:06:24 marius-RV410-RV510-S3510-E3510 acpid: 1 client rule loaded [16:31] Oct 30 16:17:01 marius-RV410-RV510-S3510-E3510 CRON[12952]: (root) CMD ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly) [16:31] Oct 30 16:20:21 marius-RV410-RV510-S3510-E3510 kernel: [241721.382146] TCP: Possible SYN flooding on port 6881.

[16:42] i found either gnome3 and unity very slow and choppy [16:43] lxde is very fine [16:43] asterismo: for me, i just selected it in the gui at login, and it uses that session the next time as well [16:43] Airward : talk to u later..BTW i don't see anything related to USB in syslog [16:44] but i select that session and always enters in unity [16:44] /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf and change user-session= [16:44] ^^ maybe? [16:44] asterismo: yup..select lxde in the login screen once..it will default login for u unless you change it [16:45] lalatenduM, I pasted 2nd link [16:45] i thin 1st was wrong [16:46] Airward: ohh..i didn't see that [16:46] let m elook [16:46] http://paste.ubuntu.com/723431/ [16:47] hmmm [16:47] something is odd [16:48] when i connecta USB the syslog is like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/723445/ [16:53] Airward: do you have ntfs-config package....try sudo apt-get install ntfs-config [17:00] i installed "lxde" package via apt-get and (i have set up automatic login), when i restart the machine it logs into unity again, i have to log out and re login in lxde, and then reboots and unity again [17:03] i tried editing this file "gksudo gedit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf" [17:03] asterismo: yeah it working little odd 4 u [17:03] but i tried replacing unity by lxde, or lxsession [17:03] once you select lxde while login..it should login to lxde nect time [17:03] but it always logs in unity or gnome3 [17:04] other odd behavior is that shuts down and logs out takes lot of time, both gnome3 and unity, lxde logs out and shuts down/reboots inmediately [17:05] asterismo: what is ur Ubuntu version? [17:05] anyway what entry should i put in etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf for lxde session? [17:05] oneiric [17:05] i386 [17:08] asterismo: I am not familiar with etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf..let me see if I can get some information [17:09] maybe someone here knows, thanks anyway, i'm still searching [17:12] asterismo: see this...http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1806657&page=2 [17:19] i'll read it [17:19] thanks [17:22] hello guys lots of other users not from here have a problem when after they upgrade they cant install Ubuntu One any answers on why [17:23] It gets stuck when almost done installing [17:24] why do u need to install it, isn't it installed by default [17:24] ok im leaving work but i'll get back soon [17:25] hm [17:25] sry wrong channel lol [17:26] mojo706: u shoudl find ubuntu one in the messaging menu [17:31] was uninstalled [17:32] Im on Gnome and I cannot see messaging menu [17:40] mojo706: maybe something is broken... theres a 'fix broken packages' in the menu in synaptic [17:40] you can run sudo apt-get update, and sudo apt-get upgrade in the terminal and usually get some helpful output as to what the issue is [17:41] sometimes the install/uninstall can be interrupted [18:09] byye bye guys.. === nothingspecial is now known as angela-android === angela-android is now known as nothingspecial [20:18] just joined it [20:19] welcom oldos2er , we are also on -team [20:19] #ubuntu-beginners-team [20:19] hi oldos2er [20:19] hi [20:19] o/ [20:27] hi all [20:28] any 1 here?
