| skwird | StepNjump, looks like you had a corrupted install to begin with... | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| AMS-ITGuy | skwird, given that it works with Win7 -- I agree. I've gone back to Ubuntu 10.04 and the problem is still there. | 00:01 |
| AMS-ITGuy | skwird, Just trying to figure out what I've missed :) | 00:01 |
| StepNjump | I downloaded the app from the Brother site | 00:02 |
| antnash | AMS-ITGuy: I'm still having the problem that caused me to try reinstalling. I can't access my shares from my damn windows 7 laptop | 00:02 |
| antnash | I just get password incorrect. Any idea? | 00:02 |
| bergelmir | i want to uninstall my gui but after installing ubuntu-desktop and unity there is still a gui. what else do i need to uninstall/disable? | 00:02 |
| StepNjump | Is there a way to desinstall a bad install? | 00:02 |
| StepNjump | uninstall I mean skwird | 00:03 |
| AMS-ITGuy | antnash, that doesn't mean a samba issue.... what is the problem when you try to access them? | 00:03 |
| antnash | windows just says that the password is wrong | 00:04 |
| aBound | bergelmir, Trying to completely rid the Unity GUI? | 00:05 |
| bergelmir | aBound: yep | 00:05 |
| aBound | Just a terminal I presume. | 00:05 |
| bergelmir | only cli | 00:05 |
| skwird | StepNjump, can you paste the output of cat /var/lib/dpkg/status | grep thatpackage'sname | 00:05 |
| AMS-ITGuy | bergelmir, wouldn't it be easier to change the runlevel of the login app? | 00:06 |

| AMS-ITGuy | waheed, DVD data discs or movies? | 00:07 |
| waheed | data | 00:07 |
| skwird | StepNjump, try: sudo apt-get remove --purge packagenamegoeshere | 00:07 |
| AMS-ITGuy | waheed, never heard of that before..... you sure it's a DVD drive? lol | 00:07 |
| StepNjump | skwird: ok thanks I will try that... please also see: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/832056/ | 00:07 |
| bergelmir | AMS-ITGuy: how to change the runlevel? | 00:07 |
| aBound | bergelmir, I'd say you can use this simple tutorial but figures you'd have to bypass the gnome classic instructions: http://linux-software-news-tutorials.blogspot.com/2011/10/ubuntu-1110-oneiric-remove-unity-and.html | 00:07 |
| skwird | StepNjump, then do: dpkg -L packagename | 00:08 |
| aBound | bergelmir, Or try using this site: http://askubuntu.com/questions/6302/how-can-you-remove-unity | 00:08 |

| SmashingX | I installed phpmyadmin but now how can I start using it? | 00:08 |
| waheed | AMS-ITGuy : yes sure | 00:08 |
| StepNjump | skwird: yep same thing The package brhl2170wlpr needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. | 00:09 |
| DevilSolution | whats 11.10 like? | 00:09 |
| StepNjump | sk ok I will try the -L | 00:09 |
| AMS-ITGuy | bergelmir, I think It's controlled in /etc/init/gdm.conf - you'd have to check the help pages, but I think changing that to a level of 2 disables the login and gives text only | 00:09 |
| cfhowlett | SmashingX: http://wiki.phpmyadmin.net/pma/Welcome_to_phpMyAdmin_Wiki | 00:09 |
| AMS-ITGuy | waheed, sorry no idea here | 00:09 |
| aBound | DevilSolution, Define like. As in what the behavior of Ubuntu, the gui, the programs etc.... | 00:10 |
| StepNjump | skwird: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/832057/ | 00:10 |
| AMS-ITGuy | DevilSolution, kinda like 11.04 and not quite like 12.04 lol | 00:10 |
| skwird | StepNjump, take a look at this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1608698 The package is clearly corrupted and needs a good cleaning out before you try and reinstall it. Take a look at #6, | 00:10 |
| StepNjump | skwird: I can't even get in synaptic | 00:11 |
| StepNjump | oh ok.. thanks. skwird | 00:11 |
| SmashingX | cfhowlett: how can I start it? | 00:11 |
| y2E0 | say how can I solve this IRC issue when trying to join #android? Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services | 00:11 |
| DevilSolution | is it better in your guys opinions? what do i loose what do i gain? in summery :P | 00:11 |
| cfhowlett | SmashingX: i'm not a php guy - see #phpmyadmin | 00:13 |
| waheed | AMS-ITGuy : it doesn't read neither CDs, nor DVDs | 00:13 |

| waheed | hi, I'm using ubuntu 11.04 on my laptop toshiba satellite L655, the DVD doesn't read DVDs, or CDs, how to solve this?? | 00:13 |
| StepNjump | skwird: the printer is working like a charm... It's weird that the package confuses the system like that | 00:13 |

| skwird | StepNjump, that is strange | 00:14 |
| StepNjump | Well, thank you very much for all your help skwird | 00:14 |
| AMS-ITGuy | waheed, can you boot off of a CD? | 00:14 |
| skwird | I suspect ubuntu has some inbuilt support for the printer not dependent on that commercial driver. StepNjump | 00:14 |
| aBound | DevilSolution, It works fine on my machine except a few minor issues like Compiz being unstable and sometimes my GUI gets stuck in a loop. But the newer packages are nice and adds a new kernel. | 00:14 |
| skwird | You are welcome StepNjump, sorry we couldn't figure it out exactly... Good Luck! | 00:15 |
| skwird | I am out. | 00:15 |

| szymon_g | hi | 00:24 |
| zeref-Lap | hi guys, i was having trouble booting up my ubuntu, kept getting mount: mounting /dev on /root/dev failed:, i booted using live cd, but i still cant mount the / partition, its on /dev/sda1?? | 00:24 |
| szymon_g | if i'll follow those steps http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/01/how-to-install-unity-5-0-in-ubuntu-11-10/ will i get the newest (atm 5.2) unity on my 11.10? | 00:25 |
| AMS-ITGuy | szymon_g, unity 5.2 can't be installed on 11.10 only on 12.04a2 | 00:25 |
| szymon_g | even after adding unity-team:stagging PPA? shame :/ | 00:26 |
| Oer | szymon_g, https://launchpad.net/~unity-team/+archive/staging says no | 00:26 |
| zeref-Lap | i tried running fsck /dev/sda1, but i get device or resource busy | 00:26 |
| szymon_g | ah, ok, thanx AMS-ITGuy and Oer :) | 00:27 |
| DevilSolution | quick question, im installing 11.10 however if something goes wrong how do i reverse the changes? given that its deleting and unpacking packages now so its probably too late to backup the system | 00:28 |
| lion42 | DevilSolution, are you installing it onto the whole drive? | 00:28 |
| stercor | I have a non-bootable 11.10 system. Shortly into the boot process the monitor displays "Sync. Out of Range" and the boot process stops. Ctrl-Alt-Del reboots the system, so it's not far into the boot sequence. Also, the computer powers down immediately when I press the power button (no 5-second wait). | 00:29 |
| DevilSolution | lion42, yup | 00:29 |
| DevilSolution | ubuntu has the whole drive | 00:29 |
| AMS-ITGuy | stercor, try pressing alt-ctrl-f1 when the sync message appears to get a text shell menu..... sounds like an improperly configured video driver to me | 00:30 |
| symaxian | On 11.10 with win7 in virtualbox, how do I get networking set up for win7? | 00:31 |
| stercor | AMS-ITGuy: That's what I suspect also. But it doesn't have any of the Ctrl-Alt-Fn shells up yet. | 00:31 |
| tomvolek | HI guys a simple question, If I want to make sure tar cvf wil pickup all the hidden files aslo, what should my tar command be ? tar cvf mybackup.tar ./foo/* ? | 00:31 |
| cfhowlett | stercor: your monitor settings are too high | 00:32 |
| lion42 | DevilSolution, then you've passed the point of no return. Your files are gone, short of attempting to recover them using special software meant to extract lost data. And even then, you'll be lucky to get it back. | 00:32 |
| stercor | I can't get to a root prompt. | 00:32 |
| DevilSolution | so theres no system restore type thing? | 00:33 |
| cfhowlett | stercor: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUXV0um_z3E | 00:33 |
| lion42 | DevilSolution, to get back what was on the drive before you installed ubuntu? No, absolutely not. | 00:33 |
| AMS-ITGuy | stercor, still sounds like a video drivers.... frequency is too high.... has it ever worked? | 00:34 |
| DevilSolution | no to restore core factors of the system or raw components? | 00:34 |
| === raj` is now known as raj | ||
| lion42 | DevilSolution, how do you mean? Like what? | 00:34 |
| AMS-ITGuy | DevilSolution, no system restore.... what went wrong? | 00:35 |
| DevilSolution | nothing yet, just curious, im just getting the system and programs how i want them, didnt really wanan take the risk but its too alte now | 00:37 |
| stercor | AMS-ITGuy: I hobbled up by putting in a CD/DVD into the drive. The out of sync message went away in 30 seconds to a minute and a half. It doesn't do that now. | 00:37 |
| DevilSolution | lion42, i guess im asking if ubuntu maps its core components in a backup, not all my files but the kernel or such | 00:38 |
| stercor | Oh...the patch was prior to moving the computer. :) | 00:38 |
| stercor | If I could get to the video configuration files, I could propbably set the monitor parameters to work... | 00:38 |
| AMS-ITGuy | DevilSolution, get another HDD and use the DD command to back up an image | 00:39 |
| DevilSolution | alright cheers | 00:40 |
| stercor | The BIG problem is that I don't know how to get past the disk partitioning section without formatting the partition. The screen says that it doesn't reformat if there's a 'K' in the ptn table. I just don't know how to set it. | 00:40 |
| stercor | I've tried a bunch of stuff already. | 00:41 |
| skrillex | ello, i have a any problem with update install for the hedgewars games, Ubuntu ??? help please | 00:41 |
| skrillex | i speak french sorry :S | 00:41 |
| AMS-ITGuy | DevilSolution, sorry, I don't know what you're trying to accomplish, so I don't know what to recommend. | 00:41 |
| skrillex | me ??? | 00:42 |
| skrillex | the Ubuntu Qc , link, please ??? | 00:42 |
| AMS-ITGuy | skrillex, no, not you - you may want to try the ubuntu-fr or qc channel, they speak your native languarge | 00:42 |
| stercor | Hmmm...I'll (gasp!) use the LinuxMint boot disk to see if I can a) get its video drivers, and b) get to a root prompt. | 00:43 |
| jmpdev | does anyone have a link to a guide for installing postfix with mysql and dovecot on lucid? | 00:43 |
| skrillex | thanks ! | 00:43 |
| AMS-ITGuy | stercor, so use Mint, if it does the job, excellent | 00:43 |
| DevilSolution | AMS-ITGuy, im not trying to accomplish anything, im curious as to weather ubuntu has a built in back up incase the upgrade to 11.10 goes bad :P | 00:43 |
| AMS-ITGuy | DevilSolution, I would get another hdd and do a dd image to it before updates.... the non LTS releases are a bit freaky with updates to be honest | 00:44 |
| stercor | AMS-ITGuy: It removed a bunch of my files when I upgraded it. I'm using it as a last resort. | 00:44 |
| AMS-ITGuy | stercor, an Ubuntu update removed your files? | 00:45 |
| DevilSolution | AMS-ITGuy, its updating live right now, i was just wondering incase in 10 minutes i disapear and dont come back maybe there would be a command to use :P | 00:45 |
| AMS-ITGuy | DevilSolution, after starting an update, it's a bit late to do a backup.... | 00:46 |
| stercor | AMS-ITGuy: Not Ubuntu. LinuxMint. Specifically, my ~/Music and ~/Video directories. I find this strange ... and suspicious. | 00:46 |
| stercor | That's the reason I went back to Ubuntu. | 00:46 |
| DevilSolution | AMS-ITGuy, so no rollback options then? :P | 00:47 |
| AMS-ITGuy | stercor, you came to an Ubuntu IRC to ask about LinuxMint issues? | 00:47 |
| AMS-ITGuy | DevilSolution, *USE DD*. I use it all the time. Otherwise no rollback issues that I'm aware of. | 00:47 |

| DevilSolution | okay thanks, ill get myself anotehr HD | 00:48 |
| lion42 | DevilSolution, what we're saying is that you're out of luck. You have to manually backup what you want to preserve -before- doing an action which can cause things to go wrong. In the event of wanting to keep your whole drive and configuration, you need to clone it before making the dangerous modification. | 00:48 |
| jmonster1234 | Can anyone help me get 1 on 1 help? | 00:48 |

| DevilSolution | jmonster1234, im a shrink, take a seat and talk to me | 00:49 |

| AMS-ITGuy | DevilSolution, then use DD to make an image, it works great and stop worrying about updates, or use LTS | 00:50 |

| lion42 | AMS-ITGuy, my last lenovo laptop needed a motherboard replacement, wireless card replacement, ram replacement, monitor replacement, and various keyboard/hinge/screw/cover replacements all while in the warranty period. | 00:50 |
| lion42 | They finally gave me another laptop to stop paying to repair my old one, but I trust a lenovo to work properly about as much as... no, I don't trust it. | 00:50 |
| AMS-ITGuy | lion42, my very awesome Thinkpad T410 doesn't have such issues | 00:50 |
| DevilSolution | ill make an image after ive upgraded | 00:51 |

| recon69_lap | i like jam on toast | 00:58 |
| berdario | AMS-ITGuy, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGlobalJam | 00:59 |
| berdario | I think of it as one of the few occasions in which we can raise awareness about ubuntu, gather with other local nerds and contribute to the project, etc.etc. | 00:59 |
| AMS-ITGuy | I care about OSS - we can always raise awareness of Ubuntu.... what are you asking, specficially? | 01:00 |
| berdario | AMS-ITGuy, I was about to mail my local LUG to propose to cooperate on doing such an event | 01:01 |

| AMS-ITGuy | berdario, so do so | 01:01 |
| berdario | while researching for further info, to support my cause... I found out that basically... nobody seems to be active for the next global jam :/ | 01:01 |
| nak | anyone own a ratel ultra from system 76? | 01:02 |
| AMS-ITGuy | berdario, so if they aren't, spread the word yourself.... you don't need a date to introduce others, do you? | 01:02 |
| AMS-ITGuy | nak, nope | 01:02 |
| berdario | AMS-ITGuy, actually... I do :P I don't have much self-confidence | 01:03 |
| berdario | btw, ok | 01:03 |
| berdario | but it's worrying nonetheless | 01:03 |
| SHOVELL | or should i ask elsewhere | 01:03 |
| AMS-ITGuy | berdario, what is worrying? what does self confidence have to do with introducing others to OSS and Ubuntu? | 01:03 |
| SHOVELL | http://pastebin.com/DxcYmkAj | 01:03 |
| recon69_lap | one point berdario, it takes a bloody long time to get knowledge enough to help develop | 01:04 |
| tiox | FYI to all, the zsnes package for 64-bit Ubuntu still wants to eat ubuntu-desktop and other programs. | 01:04 |
| berdario | recon69_lap, I don't know if you hang around it somewhat often... but I think there's a problem if you didn't know about it... because it's a symptom there's not enough communication about it | 01:04 |
| tiox | Someone ought to recompile it for 64-bit. | 01:04 |
| berdario | s/around it/around here/ | 01:04 |
| recon69_lap | berdario: I think there are lots of people working on ubuntu, they probably all hanging out in ubuntu+1 | 01:04 |
| berdario | AMS-ITGuy, I mean that it's worryng the lack of awareness for it | 01:05 |
| AMS-ITGuy | berdario, I've been using Linux since the early 90s.... Linux will find it's place.... users will find Linux - what is your concern that there is no awareness? I don't understand? | 01:06 |
| recon69_lap | berdario: and i'm helping out now, trying to get my cam wotking in java | 01:06 |
| berdario | about the knowledge: I know... but the global jam is supposed to be organized by the most knowleadgeable individual in an area... and even if that's not possible... just working on translation or testing should be easy enough | 01:06 |
| berdario | yesyes, I'm not complaining... I'm just trying to get some feedback :) | 01:07 |
| AMS-ITGuy | berdario, feedback on what? so there is no global jam.... no one takes interest..... do you take interest? | 01:07 |
| CyberDawg | Well I dont know about you but I think I will JAM into the kitchen and grab me a sammich | 01:07 |
| fellayaboy | is it possible to bridge my ethernet with my wireless and tunnel it through an ssh session? | 01:07 |

| fellayaboy | many many reasons | 01:08 |
| AMS-ITGuy | fellayaboy, explain | 01:08 |
| berdario | AMS-ITGuy, I do... and I'm prodding others to gauge the interest... now I'll drop by ubuntu+1... and next I'll try some mails | 01:08 |
| fellayaboy | i want to bridge my ethernet to my wireles..... than i want to tunnel it through a remote ssh at home | 01:08 |
| fellayaboy | so that i can use that public ip | 01:08 |
| recon69_lap | berdario: well, get organised in your area if you know anyone. get involved yourself. most work on linux is done because someone wants a feature that is not implemented, then they start working on that feature. | 01:09 |
| AMS-ITGuy | berdario, don't convert.... educate, use the tool for the job... this isn't a religion, it's an OS | 01:09 |
| berdario | (the feedback was simply on what do you think about it) | 01:09 |
| berdario | AMS-ITGuy, I never used the word "convert"... did I gave the impression of being somewhat zealotic? :) | 01:09 |
| fellayaboy | does anyone have any ideas? | 01:09 |
| tiox | berdario: Look through history. Forced conversion just causes dissent and rebellion. | 01:09 |
| recon69_lap | berdario: i'd suggest you dont go bothering people to much | 01:09 |
| AMS-ITGuy | berdario, i think I like linux and Ubuntu and it serves a place in my life.... i choose to help people with it.... if they choose to use Windows or Mac, that's their choice | 01:09 |
| berdario | I don't really see how this applies | 01:10 |
| tiox | One thing you COULD do berdario is to get it in more stores by working as a representitive of the system, and receiving a demo machine from an OEM. | 01:10 |
| AMS-ITGuy | berdario, these aren't the droids you're looking for... | 01:10 |
| berdario | I mean: I'm talking about me, you, the peeps on #ubuntu, jono bacon... my local lug... all people who already use linux | 01:10 |
| CyberDawg | berdario, you feeling a lil beat up here mang? | 01:10 |
| recon69_lap | berdario: anyone reading this knows about the jam, now let us get on with what we are doing | 01:10 |
| AMS-ITGuy | tiox, WTF are you talking about? | 01:11 |
| SHOVELL | is this the ubuntu support chan?? | 01:11 |
| berdario | CyberDawg, care to rephrase in english? :) | 01:11 |
| tiox | Well, if He wants to help spread the word on Linux, have the consumers see it where consumers go. | 01:11 |
| tiox | But yes, it's not support discussion. Let's move on. | 01:11 |
| berdario | recon69_lap, good :) but until 5 minutes ago, it wasn't so... at least it seems we got some results :) | 01:11 |
| berdario | and now... I'm really going to #ubuntu+1 :) | 01:12 |
| CyberDawg | berdario, y0 mang, UbuntuOR Linux isnt an English specific OS... js... | 01:12 |
| AMS-ITGuy | tiox, yes, he should contact top tier OEMs to install Ubuntu lol | 01:12 |
| AMS-ITGuy | SHOVELL, dunno, you just showed up | 01:12 |
| jrib | yes, let's get back to *support* please | 01:12 |
| AMS-ITGuy | ah, here come the "silent ones" lol | 01:12 |
| AMS-ITGuy | so support | 01:12 |
| SHOVELL | hey i am having a compile error and i dont understand what i am missing any ideas? here is the output of make http://pastebin.com/DxcYmkAj | 01:12 |
| AMS-ITGuy | who wants to help me with my VPN problem I've been asking for help on for the last 5 hours? | 01:13 |
| AMS-ITGuy | shovell? jrib? | 01:13 |
| recon69_lap | berdario: fine, but this is a support channel, you;ve used up a lot of typing, I'm happy you like ubuntu, but you dont have to worry that it's dieing , or that you can really huge support, we all do a little bit and it adds up | 01:13 |
| AMS-ITGuy | at least he offered some comments and communication? | 01:13 |
| AMS-ITGuy | berdario, that is | 01:13 |
| tiox | AMS-ITGuy: I think you missed my point./ | 01:13 |
| recon69_lap | now , anyone know what happened libvideo0 ;-) | 01:14 |
| SHOVELL | AMS-ITGuy, jrib is thatt a package? | 01:14 |
| * CyberDawg hands recon69_lap a Cuba Libre | 01:14 | |
| tiox | I was telling him to get a laptop or desktop from an OEM, then as a representitive of Ubuntu and that OEM, demonstrate the system and pitch why that specific manufacturer's brand should be in stores. | 01:14 |
| AMS-ITGuy | SHOVELL, no he appears to be a user here... | 01:14 |
| AMS-ITGuy | SHOVELL, i tried sudo apt-get jrib but nothing happenened.... | 01:14 |
| SHOVELL | AMS-ITGuy, what is youur vpn issue? | 01:15 |
| AMS-ITGuy | SHOVELL, let me explain! | 01:15 |
| AMS-ITGuy | I have an Ubuntu 10.04 LTS fully patched server on my network | 01:15 |
| levitsky | !porn | levitsky | 01:15 |
| jrib | AMS-ITGuy: try to just summarize your question on a single line; it makes it easier to follow in a busy channel like this | 01:16 |
| SHOVELL | ... | 01:16 |
| AMS-ITGuy | If I configure Windows to connect to it's public IP without "use default gateway on remote network" I can communicate with both the VPN network and the internet on my network | 01:16 |
| AMS-ITGuy | however, under Ubuntu (any version) as a client OS, I cannot.... how do I fix this? | 01:16 |
| dfcnvt | There's a problem with empathy program (instant messager)... When I open my contact list, it's completely blank but still operatable. | 01:16 |
| levitsky | dfcnvt sure i can help | 01:16 |
| AMS-ITGuy | jrib, lol yeah, busy channel | 01:16 |
| levitsky | !porn | dfcnvt | 01:16 |
| dfcnvt | levitsky, have you had this experience before? | 01:17 |
| jrib | levitsky: what are you doing? stop. | 01:17 |
| CyberDawg | dfcnvt, sounds like you have no friends ;) | 01:17 |
| recon69_lap | SHOVELL: even better to summarise you question and relevant info into a pastebin and link to it | 01:17 |
| dfcnvt | lol | 01:17 |
| AMS-ITGuy | SHOVELL, so, any ideas? | 01:17 |
| dfcnvt | I have a friend that text me through this empathy program but nothing on the window. | 01:17 |
| levitsky | !unity | dfcnvt | 01:17 |
| ubottu | dfcnvt: Unity is the default UI since Ubuntu 11.04. Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. For a GNOME 2-like experience, see !notunity | 01:17 |
| recon69_lap | opps | 01:18 |
| levitsky | dfcnvt, do you use unity? | 01:18 |
| AMS-ITGuy | jrib, any answer? | 01:19 |
| levitsky | !as | AMS-ITGuy | 01:19 |
| levitsky | !ask | AMS-ITGuy | 01:19 |
| ubottu | AMS-ITGuy: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 01:19 |
| AMS-ITGuy | LOL | 01:19 |
| aBound | Is there away I can create a shell script folder and put scripts in it and somehow reference the folder so I can execute the scripts. Without having to be in the directory? | 01:19 |
| AMS-ITGuy | should I talk to you lev or the bot? | 01:19 |
| levitsky | !ubottu | AMS-ITGuy | 01:20 |
| ubottu | AMS-ITGuy: Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi | Usage info: http://ubottu.com/devel/wiki/Plugins | Bot channels and general info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots | 01:20 |
| tiox | !notunity | 01:20 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.10 uses GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 01:20 |
| AMS-ITGuy | anyone? | 01:20 |
| AMS-ITGuy | with respect to my VPN question? | 01:21 |
| AMS-ITGuy | no? | 01:21 |
| jrib | aBound: sure, use ~/bin (which will automatically be in your path on your next login after you create it | 01:21 |
| jrib | AMS-ITGuy: don't. do. that. | 01:21 |
| AMS-ITGuy | do what? | 01:21 |
| AMS-ITGuy | ask a question after you picked on another user? | 01:21 |
| aBound | jrib, I assume I add ~/bin to my $PATH variable? | 01:21 |
| levitsky | !hi ichaleynbin | 01:21 |
| AMS-ITGuy | this is a "support" channel, right? | 01:21 |
| levitsky | !hi | ichaleynbin | 01:21 |
| recon69_lap | AMS-ITGuy: that a complicated question, supprised you have not created a pastebin that covers it in detail if you;ve been at it all day. | 01:21 |
| jrib | aBound: that will happen automatically (it's in the default ~/.profile) | 01:22 |
| DevilSolution | wtf | 01:22 |
| DevilSolution | The upgrade has aborted. Your system could be in an unusable state. A recovery will run now (dpkg --configure -a) | 01:22 |
| DevilSolution | ermmm? | 01:22 |
| tiox | Just let it do the recovery. | 01:22 |
| AMS-ITGuy | recon, you wouldn't know a vpn if it slapped you in the face lol | 01:22 |
| jrib | AMS-ITGuy: yes, ask your question and wait patiently. No need to spam multiple lines with "anyone?" and other non-specific requests | 01:22 |
| aBound | Looks like ~/bin doesn't seem to be a directory and/or folder. | 01:22 |
| EagleScreen | DevilSolution: run sudo dpkg --configure -a; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 01:22 |
| tiox | If it borked your system, then install to the latest or preferred version. Make sure you save your stuff from home before you nuke the partition. | 01:23 |
| AMS-ITGuy | ok, shall I try again, can we discuss privately so my question can be posed properly? | 01:23 |
| === JermBob is now known as jermbobtoothcoun | ||
| DevilSolution | okie dokie | 01:23 |
| AMS-ITGuy | jrib, do you know anything about PPTP VPNs and split tunnelling? | 01:24 |
| jrib | AMS-ITGuy: If you want to try again, sure. But wait 5-10 minutes, then ask again so newer eyes can see your question. And please just ask it in a single line with relevant details on a pastebin | 01:24 |
| levitsky | !warn | AMS-ITGuy | 01:24 |
| Gautam1983 | Hi all, whenever ubuntu boots in this system, the volume is muted.. any ideas how to fix it? Thanks. [Ubuntu 11.10 on Sony VAIO / Intel Corporation 82801H] | 01:24 |
| jrib | aBound: yes, you need to create it. Once you do, on your next login, it will be in your path | 01:24 |
| DevilSolution | terminal wont start | 01:24 |
| jrib | levitsky: can you stop with the random factoids please? | 01:24 |
| DevilSolution | dadummm | 01:24 |
| recon69_lap | AMS-ITGuy: put you question in a pastebin with all the relevant info you know, then you can link to it here and more people can read it. if that's you question its way to vague | 01:24 |
| AMS-ITGuy | i don't need a pastebin, it's a very simple networking question | 01:25 |
| recon69_lap | AMS-ITGuy: and i know little about vpn | 01:25 |
| levitsky | jrib: insulting volunteers at work? sure thing, u deal with that | 01:25 |
| CyberDawg | AMS-ITGuy, if its so simple why are you here asking for assistance? ;) | 01:25 |
| pangolin | AMS-ITGuy: maybe ##networking will be more help | 01:25 |
| levitsky | who, and why? | 01:25 |
| === qo_op is now known as sKew^_- | ||
| AMS-ITGuy | CyberDawg, because there is a bug in Ubuntu with respect to VPN split tunnelling.... it works on Windows, are you saying Windows is better for a VPN environment? | 01:26 |
| levitsky | who kicked me? | 01:26 |
| symaxian | Hey guys, listen to this issue I'm having, never seen anything like it, just enabled two monitors in unity using the open-source radeon driver on cayman, everytime I log in a small horizontal pink stripe is added to the desktop background, I'm not sure if its adding it to the image itself or what, but no other artifacts appear | 01:27 |
| === jermbobtoothcoun is now known as JermBob | ||
| pangolin | levitsky: i did because of your poor attitude and also because of your random factoid fishing | 01:27 |
| aBound | Ahh, blah. | 01:27 |
| levitsky | pangolin: Learning is okay. | 01:27 |
| CyberDawg | AMS-ITGuy, Is that what you took from my comment?? I think you need one of my Cuba Libres brah!! | 01:27 |
| sKew^_- | i got a question, can i remove the 200mb windows boot system? format it and expand it to C: ? | 01:28 |
| levitsky | TEST | 01:28 |
| T_H_X | so is power tripping | 01:28 |
| levitsky | UBOTTU: TEST | 01:28 |
| ubottu | Testing... Testing... 1. 2.. 3... ( by the way, remember that you can use #test ) | 01:28 |
| sKew^_- | and is it possible to get a nicer GUI in grubloader, etc pics of os's? | 01:28 |
| precubcr | hy please i need help | 01:28 |
| jrib | levitsky: please learn about the bot in a private message: /msg ubottu whatever | 01:28 |
| AMS-ITGuy | CyberDawg, i think you need to be quiet unless you know what I'm talking about, which you clearly don't | 01:28 |
| jrib | precubcr: sure, just ask your question and we'll answer if we can | 01:28 |
| precubcr | anybody knows any dic generator able to create dics with 20 mix alphanumeric ? | 01:28 |
| CyberDawg | AMS-ITGuy, I think you need to put your self in checkk | 01:29 |
| cfhowlett | sKew^_-: sKew^_- yes you can delete windows and resize your partition with the freed space | 01:29 |
| AMS-ITGuy | CyberDawg, I'll do that when you prove to me that you have the faintest understanding of what I'm talking about | 01:29 |
| sKew^_- | cfhowlett, delete the windows boot partition? | 01:29 |
| levitsky | ubottu: spam | 01:29 |
| cfhowlett | sKew^_-: yes. | 01:29 |
| sKew^_- | cfhowlett, kk nice, is it possible to get a bootscren for grub were i can chose betwine 2 imagages (pics) | 01:30 |
| AMS-ITGuy | OMG pangolin was an op?? are you serious? | 01:30 |
| precubcr | jrib ? | 01:31 |
| jrib | precubcr: I do not know of such a program | 01:31 |
| cfhowlett | sKew^_-: I'm the wrong one to ask HOW but I know you can change the boot screen pictures. CHOOSING pics at boot is not readily available and is probably a huge security risk | 01:32 |
| AMS-ITGuy | ok, in all seriousness.... how old are the ops on this channel, and what do you do for a living? | 01:32 |
| precubcr | ths jrib. il keep searching | 01:32 |
| jrib | AMS-ITGuy: keep the discussion in this channel related to support please | 01:32 |
| pangolin | AMS-ITGuy: please stay on topic. | 01:32 |
| AMS-ITGuy | pics are a security risk? | 01:32 |
| recon69_lap | hmm, seem to have solved my libvideo0 issue by installing libvideo-capture-v4l-perl, got a new issue lol | 01:32 |
| sKew^_- | cfhowlett, i wass thinking like this http://www.leilaharry.com/tech/images/01-iboot.jpg | 01:33 |
| cfhowlett | sKew^_-: http://www.ghacks.net/2010/10/17/change-your-grub-splash-screen-in-ubuntu/ | 01:33 |
| AMS-ITGuy | jrib, pangolin still looking for VPN support here.... care to help? | 01:33 |
| tiago | AMS-ITGuy: I don't know if you remember my issue. how would i go about doing a back-up? i just have access to the grub command line and many commands seem to not be working | 01:33 |
| camieman10 | sKew^_-: Awesome, I so want to do that | 01:33 |
| jrib | AMS-ITGuy: I still have no clue what your issue even is. | 01:33 |
| pangolin | AMS-ITGuy: I suggested you try asking in ##networking, they may be more help. | 01:34 |
| cfhowlett | sKew^_-: ok, we're talking about different things, then. the image you shared is for a multi-boot system. | 01:34 |
| AMS-ITGuy | jrib, do you have a scroll bar? | 01:34 |
| sKew^_- | cfhowlett, yes, i use grub as multiboot system for my dualboot :/ | 01:34 |
| AMS-ITGuy | pangolin, the issue is ubuntu related | 01:34 |
| sKew^_- | camieman10, it looks nice yeah :) | 01:34 |
| recon69_lap | tiago, do you have a live cd or live usb, boot from that and do your backup | 01:35 |
| skrewt | So I'm locked out of Ubuntu, I forgot my password. I've tried all 3 methods on the website for resetting it and none work. | 01:35 |
| cfhowlett | sKew^_-: I get a screen like the one you want and then it boots grub. http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=212837&st=0#entry1427797 | 01:35 |
| pangolin | AMS-ITGuy: There may not be anybody around in here able to help right now. try ##networking | 01:35 |
| skrewt | I'm using Xubuntu. | 01:35 |
| jrib | skrewt: what is one method you tried specifically that did not work? | 01:35 |
| skrewt | Booted into recovery and did a passwd username | 01:35 |
| funnyfingers | Will installing apache.worker remove the apache prefork? I want to keep both. | 01:35 |
| tiago | recon69_lap: it doesn't seem to be load ing:/ but thanks I'll try to get a loadable live-cd | 01:35 |
| AMS-ITGuy | pangolin, yeah.... I'd rather have fun with the rtards here ;) | 01:35 |
| skrewt | Worked but when I try logging in it drops to a console for a quick second and returns to the login screen. I cant read the message in console. | 01:36 |
| skrewt | I also tried adding init=/bin/bash in GRUB | 01:36 |
| skrewt | but it hangs when i do ctrl-x | 01:36 |
| AMS-ITGuy | are there ops on right now? | 01:36 |
| recon69_lap | tiago, have you tried typing help and hitting enter | 01:36 |
| jrib | skrewt: attempt to login at ctrl-alt-f1 | 01:36 |
| skrewt | do that from the login screen? | 01:36 |
| jrib | AMS-ITGuy: there are always ops here | 01:37 |
| AMS-ITGuy | honest question | 01:37 |
| AMS-ITGuy | jrib, are you one? | 01:37 |
| jrib | skrewt: sure | 01:37 |
| jrib | AMS-ITGuy: stick to support | 01:37 |
| CyberDawg | AMS-ITGuy, is confused this afternoon | 01:37 |
| AMS-ITGuy | wow | 01:37 |
| AMS-ITGuy | just wow | 01:37 |
| jrib | AMS-ITGuy: we have a social channel at #ubuntu-offtopic if you are interested | 01:38 |
| jrib | or not | 01:38 |
| pangolin | enough is enough | 01:38 |
| bonch | indeed | 01:38 |
| pangolin | back to support :) | 01:38 |
| tiago | recon69_lap: I have now, it gives me a set of commands | 01:38 |
| CyberDawg | ok back on topic plz | 01:38 |
| cfhowlett | how to ignore? /ignore username | 01:38 |
| recon69_lap | gives CyberDawg a long island iced tea ;-) | 01:38 |
| tiago | recon69_lap: i run reboot and it seems to be running now :) thanks | 01:38 |
| CyberDawg | thanks recon69_lap | 01:39 |
| sKew^_- | cfhowlett, have u tryed - Decorate Grub 2 boot loader using BURG | 01:40 |
| designbybeck | can you use TAR and ZIP switches the same? Like "sudo tar -zxf filename.tgz" "sudo zip -zxf filename.zip" | 01:41 |
| ActionParsnip | designbybeck: why sudo? | 01:41 |
| cfhowlett | sKew^_-: nope. I'm not really a fan of prettifying something that will only appear for a few seconds on a properly configured system... Just sayin' | 01:41 |
| CyberDawg | I did a /whowas on that AMS guy and Im still not impressed ;) | 01:41 |
| designbybeck | either way ActionParsnip | 01:41 |
| recon69_lap | hmm, well i seem to have finished my tea and my problem have moved into the java sphere | 01:41 |
| ActionParsnip | designbybeck: if you are working on files in your home, you don't need sudo | 01:42 |
| sKew^_- | cfhowlett, okey i see ;P i will give it a try | 01:42 |
| ablyss | designbybeck, -x in zip mean to exclude files. tar means something else | 01:42 |
| sKew^_- | foud a nice design now | 01:42 |
| designbybeck | i'm following instructions on downloadign moodle and it shows TAR but i downloaded the ZIP | 01:42 |
| sKew^_- | cfhowlett, http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/05/beautiful-burg-boot-loader-gets-ubuntu-11-04-ppa/ it looks nice tho :) | 01:42 |
| designbybeck | so i don't know what the correct commands I need to do | 01:42 |
| designbybeck | It is on a test server | 01:42 |
| ActionParsnip | designbybeck: if you want to extract everything with the asme command, install unp and use unp :) | 01:42 |
| designbybeck | it is all cli ActionParsnip | 01:43 |
| cfhowlett | sKew^_-: now WALLPAPERS? I was a blue mushroom fan for years: http://digitalblasphemy.com/freegallery.shtml | 01:43 |
| ActionParsnip | designbybeck: unp will look at the file to be extracted and use the appropriate switches and commad | 01:43 |
| ActionParsnip | designbybeck: yes, unp is cli | 01:43 |
| T_H_X | tar -xf file.tar | 01:43 |
| designbybeck | i've never heard of that one | 01:43 |
| barakisbrown | what is a good remote desktop for my window machine to connect to my ubuntu box? | 01:43 |
| ActionParsnip | !unp | 01:43 |
| ActionParsnip | !info unp | 01:43 |
| ubottu | unp (source: unp): unpack (almost) everything with one command. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0~pre7 (oneiric), package size 13 kB, installed size 124 kB | 01:43 |
| ActionParsnip | pretty much nails it | 01:43 |
| designbybeck | wwooooaahhh | 01:44 |
| designbybeck | that is cool! | 01:44 |
| ActionParsnip | saves having to remember the switches for tar, unzip bunzip, gunzip, whatever | 01:44 |
| designbybeck | the !info thing | 01:44 |
| barakisbrown | !info rdp | 01:44 |
| ubottu | Package rdp does not exist in oneiric | 01:44 |
| Mene-Mene | I can't seem to connect via VNC to my Mac. It's reporting "connection closed" | 01:45 |
| ablyss | barakisbrown, tightvnc works with win7 and is free | 01:45 |
| Mene-Mene | I'm using Remote Desktop Viewer | 01:45 |
| ActionParsnip | !info rdesktop | barakisbrown | 01:45 |
| ubottu | barakisbrown: rdesktop (source: rdesktop): RDP client for Windows NT/2000 Terminal Server. In component main, is optional. Version 1.7.0-1ubuntu2 (oneiric), package size 141 kB, installed size 496 kB | 01:45 |
| sKew^_- | cfhowlett, no wallpaper ;) looks clean and clasic ;) | 01:45 |
| Mene-Mene | It shows me a black screen for a bit, then nothing. | 01:45 |
| ActionParsnip | ablyss: rdp is built into the OS ;) | 01:45 |
| designbybeck | ok I installed unp | 01:45 |
| barakisbrown | !info rdesktop | 01:45 |
| ubottu | rdesktop (source: rdesktop): RDP client for Windows NT/2000 Terminal Server. In component main, is optional. Version 1.7.0-1ubuntu2 (oneiric), package size 141 kB, installed size 496 kB | 01:45 |
| ActionParsnip | designbybeck: nice, whenever you want to extract anything, run: unp filename | 01:45 |
| DevilSolution | okay i have an issue after updating to 11.10, first my internet is dead, i logged out and back in into 2d mode and its fine? which si my next issue, wheres gnome gone? :O | 01:46 |
| designbybeck | I guess what my conserns are, is that I don't know what switches should be on, so if it doesn't unpackage it correctly i will not know what needs to be done to fix it | 01:46 |
| cfhowlett | !gnome|devilsolution | 01:46 |
| ubottu | devilsolution: GNOME is the default !desktop environment on Ubuntu up to 10.10 To install it from Kubuntu or Xubuntu, type « sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » in a !terminal. | 01:46 |
| ActionParsnip | DevilSolution: unity2D uses Gnome too.. | 01:46 |
| ablyss | ActionParsnip, rdp sucks... you have to login as <username> with rdp, whereas with tightvnc you don't | 01:46 |
| designbybeck | Ok thanks ActionParsnip I'm going to try it now | 01:46 |
| DevilSolution | hmm but its unity layout not classic gnome | 01:46 |
| ActionParsnip | ablyss: rdp has encryption so is suitable for over WWW, VNC has zero security and you should connect via SSH tunnel (extra work for the user) | 01:47 |
| ActionParsnip | DevilSolution: its still gnome, unity is nothing but a shell | 01:47 |
| barakisbrown | ablyss: does tightvnc allow me to access X11 from myh window machine? | 01:47 |
| DevilSolution | anyway, the internet is the real issue, why does it work in 2d and not 3d mode? | 01:47 |
| DevilSolution | doesnt read my network card for some reason, wireshark either | 01:47 |
| ActionParsnip | DevilSolution: in 3d mode, run: sudo dhclient eth0 (change eth0 for your network interface if it is not eth0) | 01:47 |

| recon69_lap | ActionParsnip: been using it for ages, the easier it get to use the more i forget | 01:50 |
| Mene-Mene | This is the pioneer. | 01:50 |
| Mene-Mene | It got to authenticate using ipv4 | 01:51 |
| Mene-Mene | instead of ipv6 | 01:51 |
| ActionParsnip | recon69_lap: ahh gotcha, I hang in here and help. Keeps it fresh | 01:51 |

| sKew^_- | ActionParsnip, 2 sec let me google what alzheimers is :) | 01:55 |
| me2 | does anyone here have any enterprise experience with PPTP and split tunnelling? | 01:55 |
| jrib | skrewt: I was going to have you: 1) use passwd and then 2) try to login as the user with "su" but since you are root, it wouldn't prompt for a password. So how about creating a new user temporarily (use « adduser USERNAME »), then su to the new user, and then try your old one | 01:55 |
| barakisbrown | ActionParsnip: So I do not have to walk into the other room to use it?? I want to access from my window machine which is in another room?? | 01:55 |
| ActionParsnip | barakisbrown: yes but what would yuo walk through to do? | 01:56 |
| me2 | does anyone here have any enterprise experience with PPTP and split tunnelling? | 01:56 |
| ActionParsnip | barakisbrown: what is the purpose of connecting | 01:56 |
| barakisbrown | ActionParsnip: to learn about linux and abiltiy to use another os without using a VM or dualbooting..:) | 01:57 |
| recon69_lap | lol, something about me2 seems familiar | 01:57 |
| me2 | barakisbrown, use RDP | 01:57 |
| ActionParsnip | barakisbrown: I guess, could use SSH and CLI or X forwarding ;) | 01:57 |

| tiago | my system doesn't go beyond the grub menu. When running the live-cd any of the options the menu provides me just boots the cd again and takes me back to the menu. Anyone had the same issue/ has a solution? | 01:58 |
| me2 | tiago, AMS_ITGuy here we were talking earlier before the Ops booted me.... does your system not fully boot off of a LiveCD? | 01:59 |
| Mene-Mene | Well, thanks, I'll just abandon vnc, apparently I don't need it for what I'm trying to do. | 01:59 |
| recon69_lap | tiago, are you sure you booting from the CD | 01:59 |
| tiago | well it takes me to the menu displayed by the live-cd (try ubuntu, install ubuntu, etc) | 01:59 |
| ActionParsnip | tiago: what GPU do you use? | 01:59 |
| me2 | ActionParsnip, it's not a GPU issue | 02:00 |
| tiago | nvidea | 02:00 |
| jrib | bah | 02:00 |
| tiago | i think the problem may be from hardware but maybe memory or something, how can i determine the problem? | 02:00 |
| tiago | is there any set of commands i can run which will point me in the right direction? | 02:01 |
| recon69_lap | tiago: have you tried booting to a cmdline , would probably bypass graphics issues | 02:03 |
| ActionParsnip | tiago: tried the boot option: nouveau.blacklist=1 | 02:03 |
| ActionParsnip | tiago: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? | 02:03 |
| tiago | ActionParsnip: this iso has worked before | 02:04 |
| tiago | recon69_lap: how can i do so? | 02:04 |
| recon69_lap | tiago: try hitting f1-f6 while its booting | 02:04 |
| ActionParsnip | tiago: did you butn the CD as sowly as possible (assuming you are using a CD) | 02:04 |
| ablyss | barakisbrown, tightvnc will let u access x10 as long as you have desktop sharing enabled, plus tightvnc works freely on win7 | 02:05 |
| sKew^_- | Config Burg-pc GRUB install devices:[_] /dev/sda ? is it rigth? my linux is on sda5 but cant change number there only [*] /dev/sda | 02:05 |
| ActionParsnip | sKew^_-: burg isn't supported here | 02:05 |
| ablyss | erm, x11, not x10.. | 02:05 |
| recon69_lap | tiago: or you can hit any key when you get the little icon , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions | 02:07 |
| wchan_ | i can mount my NTFS drive... however I can't access my user directory... it just hangs... is there a workaround? | 02:07 |
| cfhowlett | wchan_: if windows is encrypted in any way ... no. | 02:08 |
| tiago | recon69_lap: f2 will show me the bios but that's it | 02:08 |
| wchan_ | cfhowlett: does it encrypt by default? what if i have the windows user password? | 02:08 |
| recon69_lap | tiago: skip f2, and let it get passed the bios screen before hitting keys | 02:09 |
| tiago | recon69_lap: that logo shows up, and the menu also, that's the menu that doesn't do anything | 02:09 |
| tiago | recon69_lap: ok | 02:09 |
| recon69_lap | tiago: you look at that link i posted | 02:09 |
| cfhowlett | wchan_: I can see my win7 home (premium?) no problem. Do you have win enterprise or something?? | 02:10 |
| wchan_ | cfhowlett: i have the professional version? | 02:10 |
| wchan_ | whatever comes with MSDNAA | 02:10 |
| wchan_ | i can access every folder except for the C:/Users/username/ | 02:10 |
| wchan_ | which is where all my documents are stored :( | 02:10 |
| recon69_lap | tiago: and how do you mean it does nothing? is it lockedup | 02:11 |
| lion42 | wchan_, if there's a setting for "don't allow other users to see this folder" (I forget what it's called, in windows) it may be encrypted. But I am not sure so don't take my word on this. | 02:11 |
| tiago | recon69_lap: yep the logo and menu that show up are the ones in that site. When i mean nothing i mean it just boots back into this same menu | 02:11 |
| wchan_ | lion42: any workaround on how to access the folder? or would i have to find a windows machine to access it? | 02:11 |
| tiago | no matter what option is selected | 02:12 |
| skrewt | jrib, i couldnt get the pw changed but i could get logged in with the new user. this is an old netbook i dont use (hence forgetting the pw) that i only want to keep on my nightstand to serve as a baby monitor. so the user acct wasnt important, i just needed a fullscreen web browser. THANK YOU!! | 02:12 |
| recon69_lap | tiago: have you done the check cd for defects | 02:12 |
| lion42 | wchan_, what do you mean, find a windows machine? Isn't this an install of windows you're trying to access? | 02:12 |
| ActionParsnip | tiago: is the ram healthy? there is a memtester on the CD | 02:12 |
| cfhowlett | skrewt jrib http://imagebin.org/196269 | 02:12 |
| tiago | ActionParsnip: every option in the CD just boots back into the menu | 02:13 |
| skrewt | cfhowlett, is that automatic or something? | 02:13 |
| wchan_ | lion42: yes. but its a hassle to swap harddrives and grab the data... im running ubuntu only right now. | 02:13 |
| ActionParsnip | tiago: not a good sign. I'd rebuurn the CD as sowly as possible again | 02:13 |
| cfhowlett | skrewt: no that's a gift from me to you. | 02:13 |
| wchan_ | lion42: i want to copy the data to my ubuntu ext4 | 02:13 |
| recon69_lap | tiago: a few years ago spent ages tring to workout why my rig was crashing, eventuly worked out the cpu was overheating | 02:13 |
| designbybeck | Question ActionParsnip the instructions say to cp the default Virtual ost file to another file, can't I just add that content to whats there already? http://www.pasteall.org/28922 | 02:13 |
| skrewt | cfhowlett, thanks! its a two for one with the baby in the picture | 02:13 |
| tiago | but from the memtester that I ran in the GRUB menu I got some errors, don't know if these are just incompatibilities or errors | 02:13 |
| lion42 | wchan_, I'd suggest you do that. If it is truly locked down you will not be able to access the data unless you log into windows. I can't think of another suggestion, unfortunately. | 02:14 |
| ActionParsnip | tiago: do you see red lines in the bottom right of the screen, like this: http://www.mynetnuke.com/Portals/28/images/Articles/MemtestMNN.jpg | 02:14 |
| cfhowlett | wchan_: the only workaround would be to disable whatever protection windows is running and then reboot buntu and try again | 02:14 |
| tiago | recon69_lap: how can I get to the bottom of the problem? | 02:15 |
| wchan_ | lion42, cfhowlett: so i guess you are saying nobody has a ntfs package to decrypt the data even if i have the password | 02:15 |
| tiago | ActionParsnip: yep | 02:15 |
| recon69_lap | tiago: think we might be getting a answer soon | 02:15 |
| lion42 | wchan_, I'm sure it's possible someone does, but I have no idea about it, sorry. | 02:15 |
| cfhowlett | wchan_: encryption is DESIGNED to be tough to crack... | 02:15 |
| ActionParsnip | tiago: your ram is bad | 02:16 |
| wchan_ | cfhowlett: encryption is designed to be touch to crack IF you dont have the password | 02:16 |
| recon69_lap | yee, lost my ability to remember anything but can predict the future =-O | 02:16 |
| wchan_ | im sure MSFT wouldn't resort to some homebrew encryption algorithm. but rather use something like AES... | 02:16 |
| cfhowlett | wchan_: true. should have specified illegal crack. | 02:16 |
| ActionParsnip | tiago: if you have multiple sticks, remove one with the power OFF and rerun the test, see if you get no rednes, if its still red, put it back in with the power OFF and remove a different one | 02:17 |
| lion42 | cfhowlett, even in the realm of legality, the password a user uses to log into windows and prompt decryption wouldn't be the key used to actually permanently decrypt the data with some external program, right? | 02:17 |
| cfhowlett | wchan_: there a number of articles on decryption with windows. | 02:17 |
| tiago | ActionParsnip: it's a laptop | 02:17 |
| tiago | don't know if i'm willing to open it and risk further problems | 02:18 |
| lion42 | tiago, a laptop can have multiple sticks of ram. Try looking up your model or calling your manufacturer to find out what the case is with your computer. | 02:18 |
| recon69_lap | tiago: try earth yourself first by touching a metal radiator or metal electric device that is pluged in first | 02:18 |
| cfhowlett | lion42: lazy users would absolutely use their default username/password unless forced otherwise e.g. ubuntu ecryptfs forces a phrase that is unrelated to name/password | 02:18 |
| lion42 | tiago, removing and exchanging ram in a computer is typically the easiest repair task you can perform. | 02:18 |
| tiago | ok | 02:19 |
| ActionParsnip | tiago: stil l has ram. they make the ram easy to access for easy upgrades | 02:19 |

| ActionParsnip | Anthony: you can use lilo if you wish | 02:46 |
| fellayaboy | oh ok so i used sudo -i on my own and it seems to work exactly like su | 02:46 |
| fellayaboy | i was just workign with su...so this is why it interests me | 02:46 |

| fellayaboy | is that all | 02:47 |
| recon69_lap | eQuiNoX__: probably best to ask in the C++ channel | 02:47 |

| ActionParsnip | fellayaboy: sudo -i will use your users system configs too | 02:47 |
| Anthony | well what os uses lilo | 02:48 |
| fellayaboy | oh i see | 02:48 |
| recon69_lap | eQuiNoX__: that the CPP channel not that i think of it | 02:48 |
| eQuiNoX__ | recon69_lap: sorry? dint get you | 02:48 |
| Anthony | is there way to run a ful version of knopix | 02:48 |
| fellayaboy | so when is it approriate to use su and sudo -i..should i just totally forget about su then? | 02:49 |
| sKew^_- | Anthony, yeah it calls slackware :) | 02:49 |
| urlin2u | Anthony I think freebsd uses lilo | 02:49 |
| Anthony | where do i get it | 02:49 |
| fellayaboy | can soemone help me i have a vpn setup... and i get my nat from the vpn server so when i browse i use their public ip address...i connect to the net/vpn using the wireless portion of my pc...when im not conencted to vpn i can bridge to my wireless just by goign to network manager>edit connection>wired connection1> and changing method to shared to other computers..i tried doign this with openvpn connected but all i get is an | 02:50 |
| fellayaboy | APIPA address 169.2 | 02:50 |
| fellayaboy | <fellayaboy> 54.9.129 how can i bridge this to work as it does without the vpn connection?? | 02:50 |
| ActionParsnip | fellayaboy: you only really need su to switch to another user or run a single command as another user, if you want to 'become root' use: sudo -i | 02:50 |
| recon69_lap | eQuiNoX__: the channel is ##c++ but they can be a bit unfriendly | 02:50 |
| sKew^_- | why are you chosing OS from bootloader preinstalled in os? | 02:50 |
| sKew^_- | Anthony, ^ | 02:50 |
| eQuiNoX__ | recon69_lap: haha thanks for the warning, ill do a search myself before i ask anyhow | 02:50 |
| fellayaboy | ooh ok...so if i have another admin account with user name adminMan...and i want to use him i just type in su adminMan in terminal? | 02:51 |
| fellayaboy | im a lil noobish | 02:51 |
| ActionParsnip | fellayaboy: yes, you will then need adminman's password and then when you run; whoami it will output: adminman | 02:51 |
| ActionParsnip | fellayaboy: you are learning, which is a good :) | 02:52 |
| fellayaboy | cool so then would sudo -i adminMan do the same thing? | 02:52 |
| recon69_lap | eQuiNoX__: you will have to use the -L and -I compile flags as far as i remember , most projects have complex build scripts to work all this stuff out | 02:52 |
| arjuna | hi all...so running gnome-shell, and wondering what the right ctrl button does? | 02:52 |
| recon69_lap | eQuiNoX__: you might what to read about 'ant' | 02:52 |
| Anthony | where can i get copy of slacware | 02:53 |
| fellayaboy | ActionParsnip, so then according to your logic running sudo -i adminMan wouldnt change me to adminMan would it | 02:53 |
| eQuiNoX__ | recon69_lap: oh no im not trying to build a huge project, its just a a small 50line c code that i wrote and wanna try out which uses functions from those headers | 02:53 |
| ActionParsnip | fellayaboy: if you use -v instead, you can authenticate as adminman assuming you have the password. I'd check the man page of sudo | 02:53 |
| ActionParsnip | fellayaboy: you'd use: su adminMan | 02:53 |
| fellayaboy | oh okay | 02:54 |
| fellayaboy | that makes sense | 02:54 |
| cfhowlett | Anthony: http://bit.ly/zwecUG. | 02:54 |
| fellayaboy | thanks ActionParsnip | 02:54 |
| fellayaboy | i learnt something new there | 02:54 |
| ActionParsnip | fellayaboy: never a bad thing :) | 02:54 |
| ActionParsnip | fellayaboy: true multiuser is powerful :) | 02:55 |
| fellayaboy | u think if i take a linux+ course i could learn a great chuck of this stuff | 02:55 |
| fellayaboy | what do u mean ActionParsnip | 02:55 |
| fellayaboy | its more powerful to have more than one admin account? | 02:55 |
| recon69_lap | eQuiNoX__: look something like 'gcc main.cpp -l /src/lib/mylib/include.h -L /path/to/some/lib/somthing' | 02:55 |
| recon69_lap | eQuiNoX__: been a while since i worked with cpp | 02:56 |
| ActionParsnip | fellayaboy: you could have the accounts in different groups, giving different access | 02:56 |
| Anthony | is there one that looks more like knoppix | 02:56 |
| arjuna | anyone else using virtualbox and having problems with the host key? i think it might be conflicting keybind, but having a hard time figuring it out | 02:56 |
| fellayaboy | that would probably be useful for a big network such as an office not at home | 02:56 |
| fellayaboy | i dont see how thats actually helpful i mean | 02:57 |
| ActionParsnip | fellayaboy: true, plus each user can have its own admin account, so you can see who did what in logs | 02:57 |
| cfhowlett | arjuna: with guest additions installed or no? | 02:57 |
| fellayaboy | oooh i see | 02:57 |
| mcl0vin | charlie testing anyone know where? | 02:57 |
| fellayaboy | oh i see...could that be useful for at home use..some sort of a benefit or some sort | 02:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Anthony: how do you mean> | 02:57 |
| fellayaboy | of some sort* | 02:57 |
| Anthony | like knoppix, how looks and runs | 02:58 |
| ActionParsnip | fellayaboy: yes, one admin to control, rather than in windows where everyone is an admin | 02:58 |
| arjuna | cfhowlett, with...this is a copied vdi from the same machine, previously running maverick...maybe try reinstalling guest additions? | 02:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Anthony: slitaz, tinycore, puppy | 02:58 |
| cfhowlett | arjuna: reinstall guest add's should fix the key problem. | 02:59 |
| fellayaboy | right ..soemtimes not even an admin at times...theres been many times i tried to get rid of somethign in the registry and i never could...so much for power | 02:59 |
| arjuna | cfhowlett, thank you, gonna try that now... | 02:59 |

| c_smith | ActionParsnip, how would I do this? | 04:14 |
| ActionParsnip | c_smith: use gimp or similar, print head clean will depen on the make and model. HP have a fantastic tool kit which can probably do head cleaning | 04:16 |

| North | OctoByte: can you guess why I cannot write on HDD secondary? | 05:00 |
| OctoByte | North, looks like your secondary HDD IS an ext3 (assuming that sdb1 is your secondary HDD). I think the problem is with the permissions. Looks you have read-only permissions. | 05:01 |
| North | OctoByte: where can I change the permission? | 05:01 |
| North | I checked the Properties-Permmissions. and the message is " THe permissions of "disk" could not be determined." | 05:03 |
| superdave_ | can anybody verify compatibility with Lynksys WMP11 wifi PCI adapter? | 05:03 |

| superdave_ | ActionParsnip: ahh.. no clue... it's version 4 of the hardware if that helps... | 05:04 |
| ActionParsnip | superdave_: if you can find out the chip, we can say. Linksys buy chips from atheros, intel and broadcom and make their adapters | 05:04 |
| OctoByte | North, Interesting, I have never encountered something like that before. I'm not really sure what to do here. But I believe the answer lies in editing your fstab. | 05:06 |
| ActionParsnip | superdave_: let me search | 05:06 |
| ActionParsnip | !hcl | superdave_ may have some compatible devices for you | 05:06 |

| T_H_X | North: ls -l /disk/mount/point wherever that is | 05:06 |
| OctoByte | North, heres more info on editing your fstab: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab | 05:06 |

| superdave_ | ActionParsnip: it's inprocomm | 05:07 |
| zykotick9 | North: "gksudo gedit /etc/fstab" is one method | 05:07 |
| mig_seixas | cpbr5 | 05:07 |
| OctoByte | North, however I should warn you to take care when editing fstab. It can cause lots of problems if you mess up | 05:07 |
| T_H_X | North: mount the disk then use sudo chmod to change perms, dont force them through fstab | 05:08 |
| OctoByte | North, read this article first, it will help you: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab | 05:08 |

| T_H_X | North: also make sure the disk is healthy, fsck -p /dev/sdb1 | 05:08 |
| zykotick9 | superdave_: if it's USB, you might want to unplug it (wait a couple of seconds) plug it back in and in a terminal run "dmesg | tail -25" to find more info on the device. | 05:08 |

| michael_mbp | hi all, how can I add a .conf to upstart? I've added the file to /etc/init/ | 05:09 |
| OctoByte | North, listen to T_H_X he knows what he's talking about | 05:10 |
| quiescens | michael_mbp: if you have written the file correctly that should be all you need to do? | 05:10 |
| zykotick9 | michael_mbp: 1) do you really need it on boot? 2) is rc.local an option for you? | 05:10 |
| michael_mbp | the file is god.conf | 05:11 |
| michael_mbp | so service god start should work right? | 05:11 |
| ActionParsnip | !upstart | 05:13 |
| ubottu | Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 05:13 |
| spoken | when i boot i'm getting ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/a3a... does not exist. Dropping to a shell! I can get to grub but kernel won't boot. | 05:15 |
| michael_mbp | that's not helping as I've looked at that | 05:15 |

| BryanRuiz1 | how do i tell a service not to start on boot? | 05:27 |
| zykotick9 | BryanRuiz1: the ugly way would be to rename the .conf file in /etc/init/ to foo.conf.disabled (not pretty method that's for sure) | 05:28 |
| dr_willis | you can edit the .conf file. but i just rename them. | 05:29 |
| dr_willis | simple :) but unusual | 05:29 |
| dr_willis | the upstart homepage/wiki may give other ways. But i dont think theres a standard way to do it. | 05:29 |
| llutz_ | upstart still lacks basic features | 05:30 |
| dr_willis | if you dont want a service running. why do you have it installed? | 05:30 |

| crizzy | or fallback | 05:38 |

| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.10 uses GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 05:38 |
| bobenhaus | how do I install xubuntu? | 05:38 |
| dr_willis | !hostname | 05:38 |

Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. | 05:38 |
| bobenhaus | !gnome | 05:38 |

| ActionParsnip | skilz: change both files (case sensitive), then reboot | 05:38 |
| bobenhaus | doh. I just typed sudo apt-get install gnome | 05:38 |
| ActionParsnip | crizzy: no need for the apps too, you just need xfce4 | 05:39 |
| dr_willis | that may install a few extra gnome files | 05:39 |
| ActionParsnip | crizzy: you can use the standing gnome apps in xfce | 05:39 |
| skilz | I changed /etc/hosts | 05:39 |
| skilz | what else? | 05:39 |
| crizzy | well, yes | 05:39 |

| Jordan_U | hipitihop: That's grub legacy. | 06:10 |
| Jordan_U | hipitihop: I recommend that you upgrade to grub2. It's pretty safe, but you should have a LiveCD handy just in case something goes wrong. | 06:11 |
| hipitihop | Jordan_U, hmm, seems upgrade to LTS did not sort that | 06:11 |
| hipitihop | Jordan_U, ok have a few things running on this machine so will have to schedule a reasonable time to fiddle with gruva and live cd in hand... | 06:12 |
| zykotick9 | hipitihop: upgrades to 10.04LTS where design NOT to upgrade grub by default, it's working as designed | 06:12 |
| Jordan_U | hipitihop: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Upgrading_to_GRUB_2_From_GRUB | 06:13 |
| hipitihop | Jordan_U, if my grub menu does not show on bott, is there a way to bring it up while machine is booting ? | 06:13 |
| Jordan_U | hipitihop: With grub legacy in Ubuntu the menu was always shown by default. With grub2 in Ubuntu the menu is hidden by default unless you dual boot, and can be accessed at boot by holding shift even when it's hidden. | 06:15 |
| Anthony | ACTION | 06:16 |
| hipitihop | Jordan_U, this is originally a mythbuntu install which has gone through upgrades so not really sure what the defaultis, but willsee if I can choose via shift | 06:16 |
| hipitihop | Jordan_U, ActionParsnip: thanks for your help guys. | 06:16 |

| superdave321 | lint: yeah, ok. It is kind of an advanced feature, but shouldn't a provision be put into the OS at least telling you that you have to install it before it will work? | 07:05 |
| superdave321 | lint: the feature being creating a RAID-0 scheme. | 07:06 |
| dfcnvt | Not so narrow but that's good enough... Actually no, how do you grep with the space in it? | grep "Chrome Chrome"? | 07:06 |
| ActionParsnip | dfcnvt: could grep one word then grep the next, not graceful but should work | 07:07 |
| ztane | dfcnvt: yep | 07:07 |
| dfcnvt | Didn't think of that, thanks | 07:07 |

| urlin2u | fishcooker, there is windows support not really a chat room ##windows | 07:10 |

| totesmuhgoats | my teacher provided a custom authored debian live cd for one of our classes, it shipped with xfce, I am wondering why his livecd virtualized runs so smoothly compared to my native ubuntu install with xubuntu-desktop | 07:15 |
| totesmuhgoats | like when i resize a window it never resizes smooth, and the cursor always gets ahead of the actual window | 07:15 |
| totesmuhgoats | and the virtualized instance is running inside this native install and still does it perfectly | 07:16 |
| urlin2u | totesmuhgoats, why don't you ask them. :) | 07:16 |
| superdave321 | What is the best way to share an entire drive over network? | 07:16 |
| totesmuhgoats | urlin2u: well i can't think of a logical reason that it would | 07:16 |
| zykotick9 | superdave321: just create a folder on the drive, then share it. | 07:16 |
| urlin2u | totesmuhgoats, I can't hardly ever really, lol :) | 07:17 |
| An_dep | yes but then system loading working ethernet leads to crash... | 07:17 |
| superdave321 | Zykotick9: meh.... Ok. why not. | 07:17 |
| T_H_X | superdave321: if you open nautilus, then click on filesystem. then right click a blank area in the foldres window. select properties, and goto share tab | 07:20 |
| T_H_X | superdave321: but sharing a single folder would be best though | 07:21 |
| totesmuhgoats | urlin2u: i guess eh? | 07:21 |
| superdave321 | T_H_X: Thanks! That's exactly what I needed. what do you mean by best? | 07:22 |
| An_dep | have any ideas? in notebook emachines D443 ethernet ONLY then wire not pluged - system crash on linux, (on windows load normal) | 07:23 |
| T_H_X | bit more secure i spoze.. but i do the same.. no one here but me | 07:23 |
| urlin2u | totesmuhgoats, you noticed eh. :) | 07:24 |
| superdave321 | T_H_X: well, it's a seperate drive and it's on a personal network out in the middle of the sticks of Arkansas, so i'm pretty unworried about security other than a nosy sister or parent... | 07:26 |

| bunjee | hello out there................ | 08:58 |
| bunjee | please help me install K3B | 08:58 |
| Krised | hi there | 08:58 |
| [deXter] | bunjee, sudo apt-get install k3b | 08:59 |
| Krised | uhmm i dont know what k3b is sadly but id go with apt-get or synaptic myself | 08:59 |
| bunjee | Thank You!! | 08:59 |
| Lint | krapde 3 burner | 08:59 |
| spurs | bunjee: hi | 08:59 |
| zykotick9 | Krised: k3b is an excellent burning package, BUT it requires KDE libs, so i never use it anymore | 08:59 |
| Krised | burning ? as cd burning ?? oh. im using gnome myself. the old look.. not that unity stuff | 09:00 |
| stephans | why do libs matter so much to you? | 09:00 |
| zykotick9 | stephans: KDE is HUGE | 09:00 |
| stephans | no space on your disk? | 09:01 |
| Krised | damn i think my 500gb portable hdd is corrupt. i cant get access to it and im afraid to format it cause i need to see whats on it | 09:01 |
| stephans | can you leave it unmounted and use fsck? | 09:02 |
| bunjee | deXter - I just downloaded the 2.0.2 tarball from the Internet - install differently? Doesn't seem to find the file.................. | 09:03 |
| [deXter] | bunjee, don't install from tar, always try to use apt-get | 09:06 |
| llutz_ | !info k3b | 09:06 |
| ubottu | k3b (source: k3b): A sophisticated CD/DVD burning application. In component main, is optional. Version 2.0.2-0ubuntu4 (oneiric), package size 479 kB, installed size 1848 kB | 09:06 |
| [deXter] | you don't want to go into the hassle of compiling a program, and its dependencies, and mess up your system, and later try to fix it.. | 09:06 |
| llutz_ | bunjee: 2.0.2 is in the repos, no need to compile | 09:06 |
| bunjee | llutz - no ned to install you mean? | 09:07 |
| llutz_ | bunjee: no need to compile - i mean. thats what you would have to do with the tarball | 09:08 |
| bunjee | just thought it would be wise to get the newest version........ | 09:08 |
| lekremyelsew | bunjee, the tar file contains the source code to the program, so you have to compile before you can use it, whereas the packages in the repos are precompiled and are much easier to remove | 09:08 |
| sugalumps | hello | 09:09 |
| Ben64 | bunjee: unless there is actually a problem with the packaged version, there is no reason to compile a new version | 09:09 |
| bunjee | Ben64.............ok, that's what I wanted to know........ the bugle at the end of the biurn process is not working........I LOVE that sound........... | 09:10 |
| llutz_ | bunjee: 2.0.2 is in the repos, so it IS the latest version | 09:10 |
| lekremyelsew | bunjee, if your heart is set on having the very newest version, there are a lot of tutorials out there for creating your own .deb files that will integrate much better into the ubuntu system than just compiling the tar and running from there | 09:11 |
| Ben64 | bunjee: check the settings in the program | 09:11 |
| bunjee | ok... | 09:11 |

| dr_willis | i havent paid much attention to gnome dev. lately | 09:38 |
| dr_willis | depends on what session you select. ;) | 09:39 |
| slacker- | dr_willis: I've got video covered with mythtv but the mythmusic interface is rather unatttractive | 09:39 |
| dr_willis | slacker-: vlc and xbmc and boxee have remote apps. never tried others | 09:40 |

| saikat | How to enable visual effect in ubuntu | 09:51 |
| saikat | is there any option without the proper graphics driver? | 09:52 |
| saikat | please help I m using ubuntu 10.04.3 | 09:52 |
| ikonia | saikat: what video card do you have ? | 09:53 |
| saikat | i have intel video card | 09:53 |
| ikonia | saikat: that should have quite good 3d support out of the box | 09:53 |
| soicon | saikat: in System > Preference > Appearance | 09:56 |
| openvoid | hello, just found sshd stop working on 10.04, examined more it seems only ipv4 problem, ssh ::1 works well but ssh 127.0.0.1 - no response. any suggestions? | 09:57 |
| saikat | I am not able to get the proper HD graphics driver here | 09:57 |
| saikat | please help to resolve the issue | 09:57 |
| ikonia | saikat: repeating the same statment isn't helpful | 09:58 |
| ikonia | saikat: I've just explained the intel card should be supported out of the box, if you are having a problem, please explain | 09:58 |
| soicon | saikat: System > Preference > Hardware Drivers to see if you installed the proprietary drivers or not | 09:59 |
| saikat | no i am not able to install the driver | 10:01 |
| ikonia | saikat: you don't need to install a driver | 10:01 |
| saikat | then | 10:01 |
| zul0 | anyone know why in my ifconfig is this wlan0:avahi? | 10:02 |
| ikonia | zul0: yes, it's just showing your wlan0 card having a virtual device, which is how some "drivers" handle it | 10:03 |
| ikonia | zul0: is it causing you a problem | 10:03 |
| zul0 | yes, i need use eth0 to get internet.. | 10:03 |
| soicon | saikat: so, just enabling the visual effect in Appearance window | 10:03 |
| zul0 | ikonia, how i can disable that? | 10:04 |
| saikat | its not taking... | 10:04 |
| ikonia | saikat: what's not taking | 10:05 |
| ikonia | zul0: eth0 is your wired connection | 10:05 |
| zul0 | yes | 10:06 |
| ikonia | zul0: why can you not use eth0 ? | 10:06 |
| ikonia | zul0: (or normally is I should say) | 10:06 |
| zul0 | my network-manager is crashed too | 10:06 |
| saikat | in appearance the visual effect normal & Extra option not taking | 10:06 |
| zul0 | because im usually study in my room | 10:06 |
| zul0 | and my router is in other room | 10:06 |
| ikonia | zul0: not sure how that's relevant | 10:07 |
| zul0 | im using wireless adapter since 3 months.. | 10:07 |
| saikat | is it possible to enable by some other way | 10:07 |
| ikonia | zul0: ok - so your wireless card is called wlan0 | 10:07 |
| zul0 | yes | 10:07 |
| ikonia | zul0: that is the device you need to use for wireless not eth0 | 10:07 |
| saikat | as it is searching for driver..but not able to take the proper driver | 10:07 |
| zul0 | yes ikonia | 10:08 |
| ikonia | zul0: then I'm failing to see your problem, | 10:08 |
| ikonia | saikat: what is searching for drivers ? | 10:08 |
| Ho^Oh | IS it me or this doesn't really make the window title bar dark? http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/10/use-adwaita-dark-as-your-system-theme/ | 10:09 |
| ikonia | it's an omgubuntu link - what do you expect ? | 10:09 |
| saikat | it searching for additional driver | 10:10 |
| ikonia | saikat: what is | 10:10 |
| Ho^Oh | ikonia: OMG AWESOME DESKTOP! | 10:10 |
| saikat | & give the error" desktop effect could not be enable" | 10:10 |
| zul0 | ikonia, i usually use wlan0 (wireless adapter) to connect with my router, but this morning i got some fails and meanwhile im connect to my wired adapter (eth0) | 10:10 |
| Ho^Oh | That's what. | 10:10 |
| ikonia | Ho^Oh: then don't use ombubuntu links to get an awesome desktop | 10:10 |
| zul0 | sorry for my low english.. | 10:10 |
| ikonia | saikat: sorry, you're not making any sense | 10:11 |
| ikonia | zul0: ok - don't worry, first thing, reboot, see if network manager comes back and allows you to connect using wlan0 again | 10:11 |
| saikat | please tell me if is there any other way to enable the visual effects | 10:11 |
| brianz | my box can get ip from dhcp server and can ping hosts on local subnet, but can not ping gateway or hosts on other subnets, does anyone know what's wrong? i'm using 11.04 | 10:11 |
| ikonia | saikat: any other way ? | 10:11 |
| ikonia | saikat: what are you doing to try to enable them | 10:11 |
| zul0 | ikonia, reboot service or my laptop? | 10:11 |
| ikonia | zul0: reboot your laptop | 10:11 |
| zul0 | ok | 10:11 |
| ikonia | brianz: probably wrong default gateway | 10:12 |
| Ho^Oh | ikonia: The results is that my window title bar is as white as Radiance's window manager titlebar. | 10:12 |
| saikat | it require to our customer | 10:12 |
| saikat | they need this visual effect | 10:13 |
| brianz | output of `route -n' show the default gateway is correct | 10:14 |
| ikonia | saikat: if you are doing this as part of your business may I suggest contacting canonical for a comercial support agreement | 10:14 |
| saikat | ok thanks | 10:14 |
| zul0 | ikonia, dont work. my network-manager icon is not in gnome-panel | 10:14 |
| zul0 | and i cant connect by wlan0 interface | 10:15 |
| rodhash_ | Hello all, how can I get into single mode ?? I'm running Ubuntu 11.10.... last time I tried with "init 1" it didn't work, the ubuntu kind of frozen... | 10:15 |
| rodhash_ | any idea? | 10:15 |
| ikonia | zul0: what version of ubuntu is this ? | 10:15 |
| zul0 | 10.04 | 10:15 |
| zul0 | uname -r = 2.6.32-38-generic | 10:16 |
| rodhash_ | Has anyone done it before? | 10:16 |
| ikonia | zul0: right click on the pannel and try to re-add gnome-network manager or launch it manually from the command line, see if it shows you why it's crashing | 10:16 |
| ikonia | rodhash_: use the grub boot menu | 10:16 |
| ikonia | rodhash_: "recovery" mode is single user mode | 10:16 |
| Ho^Oh | ikonia: What's wrong with omgubuntu by the way? | 10:17 |
| rodhash_ | ikonia, I'd like to get into single mode without rebooting | 10:17 |
| ikonia | Ho^Oh: I just don't rate the quality of their information | 10:17 |
| ikonia | rodhash_: if you put it into single user mode it will drop off the network | 10:17 |
| zykotick9 | !runlevels | rodhash_ | 10:17 |
| ubottu | rodhash_: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 10:17 |
| rodhash_ | ikonia, I know | 10:17 |
| ikonia | rodhash_: ok so "who -r" and see the current status | 10:18 |
| rodhash_ | run-level 2 2012-01-06 23:48 | 10:18 |
| ikonia | so you're at runlevel 2 | 10:18 |
| rodhash_ | ok | 10:18 |
| rodhash_ | I need to go to single to do some thing... but is there any way to do that without grub menus? | 10:19 |
| ikonia | rodhash_: as you're now using upstart "sudo init S" should work | 10:19 |
| zul0 | ikonia, it start without problem but in wired connection and wireless network not appear nothing about adapters. they are disabled (but working at least eth0) | 10:19 |
| rodhash_ | ok, let me try | 10:19 |
| brianz | ikonia: output of 'route -n' is correct, and if i issuing 'sudo dhclient eth0' and ping default gateway immediately, i could get several responses, but about 10 to 20 seconds later, all ping response timed out | 10:19 |
| ikonia | brianz: sounds like your dhcp lease is expiring, or your network link is going down | 10:20 |
| ikonia | zul0: so in gnome network manager the wireless card is now visiable ? | 10:21 |
| rodhash_ | ikonia, nothing happened | 10:21 |
| ikonia | rodhash_: who -r | 10:21 |
| rodhash_ | run-level S 2012-02-07 08:20 last=2 | 10:21 |
| ikonia | rodhash_: you're in single user mode | 10:21 |
| rodhash_ | ikonia, that doens't make sense... I still using Graphical environment + network + etc | 10:22 |
| zul0 | yes, but it is showing disabled icon | 10:22 |
| ikonia | rodhash_: it doesn't it does it without stopping any process, | 10:22 |
| ikonia | rodhash_: upstart works different to init | 10:22 |

| gavimobile | dlentz: no, I want to use onboard | 11:14 |
| Al_nz1 | wookienz: u in nz eh? | 11:14 |
| wookienz | not really, but from there | 11:14 |
| wookienz | i see you are as well. | 11:15 |
| Al_nz1 | yup! | 11:15 |
| dlentz | gavimobile, if you installed ati proprietary driver (catalyst/fglrx), then there is a removal procedure (hold on for link) | 11:15 |
| wookienz | auckland by your IP addess. | 11:15 |
| gavimobile | dlentz: thanks, I would appreciate the link, however what about my xorg file? will it make changes to it | 11:16 |
| gavimobile | ? | 11:16 |
| partyhard | lol i allready have alsa 1.0.23 installed | 11:16 |
| dlentz | gavimobile, do you need that file | 11:16 |
| gavimobile | dlentz: I don't know? | 11:16 |
| dlentz | you shouldn't, what are its contents? | 11:17 |
| dlentz | partyhard, eh? | 11:17 |
| dlentz | the change occurs in 1.0.24 | 11:17 |
| partyhard | ou sorry | 11:17 |
| dlentz | oh, and gavimobile, here is link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/FglrxInteferesWithRadeonDriver#Problem:__Need_to_fully_remove_-fglrx_and_reinstall_-ati_from_scratch | 11:19 |
| gavimobile | thanks | 11:19 |
| gavimobile | ill try | 11:19 |
| gavimobile | so once I remove it, it should work? | 11:19 |
| gavimobile | it will automatically redetect my new driver and change the configuration files accordingly? | 11:19 |
| dlentz | probably, you probably had xorg.conf try to load fglrx | 11:19 |
| gavimobile | dlentz: will that matter? | 11:19 |
| dlentz | what is your onboard gpu? | 11:19 |
| llutz_ | gavimobile: just rename your xorg.conf and try "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf-ati" | 11:20 |
| gavimobile | dlentz: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3855#dl | 11:20 |
| dlentz | yes, if you explicitly specify fglrx to load and you don't have an ati card, then you will get stuck at that screen | 11:20 |
| WaltherFI | Does Ubuntu support bit-perfect audio? | 11:20 |
| partyhard | Ok will install on ubuntu and feora gonna report back thank you all for your help, appreciate it.:) | 11:20 |
| gavimobile | llutz I have several versions of xorg, I don't know which is the originall one | 11:21 |
| gavimobile | I was thinking of using failsafe, but I want to keep some features of compiz | 11:21 |
| dlentz | gavimobile, there is no xorg.conf by default nowadays | 11:21 |
| Steevca | I am having problems with my network adapter,it's not detected at all.It's a TP-LINK TF-3200. | 11:23 |

| walid_ | ? | 11:31 |
| dlentz | did you do the other part from the link? | 11:31 |
| gavimobile | dlentz: nope, | 11:31 |
| gavimobile | I didn't know I needed to do both solutions | 11:32 |
| dlentz | you need to do that to restore libgl.so and libglx.so | 11:32 |

| g105b | [deXter]: can you explain how to boot in runlevel 3 (and what it is)? | 12:06 |
| [deXter] | g105b, in the grub menu, choose your OS (the normal option you choose), press e (or was it ctrl+X ?) to edit the line, in the kernel line go to the end add a space and a 3 | 12:09 |
| [deXter] | and then boot that entry | 12:09 |
| [deXter] | you'll go into runlevel 3, which is basically like a safe-mode terminal, without X or extra services loaded. | 12:10 |

| reisio | yan_: why vmware, why not kvm or virtualbox | 13:39 |
| theadmin | Lint: I beleive Ubuntu Tweak has options to remove old kernels (and thus modules for them). | 13:39 |
| Lint | theadmin, ubuntu what? | 13:39 |
| yan_ | reisio: that's a different question, i'm already committed to vmware fusion on os x | 13:39 |
| yan_ | it's what we use for work | 13:39 |
| theadmin | Lint: Ubuntu Tweak is a third-party software which provides many cool tricks | 13:39 |
| yan_ | reisio: i never had issues with it, it's just after recent update it stopped booting | 13:40 |
| theadmin | Lint: Checkz http://ubuntu-tweak.com/ | 13:40 |
| ikonia | you don't need ubuntu-tweak to remove old kernels | 13:40 |
| reisio | yan_: don't feel bad, we use hyper-v at work it's even worse | 13:40 |
| ikonia | open the package manager, select the versions you no longer want and hit remove | 13:40 |
| reisio | yan_: you might talk to #vmware though | 13:40 |
| theadmin | ikonia: True, but it's not really comfortable that way for new users | 13:40 |
| ikonia | really ??? | 13:40 |
| ikonia | open up package manager, find the kernel packages hit remove | 13:40 |
| ikonia | ubuntu-tweak can cause issues with your system it's not exactly "stable" for use | 13:41 |
| yan_ | reisio: hm? it's ubuntu that's not booting.. was wondering if other people had similar issues with the latest batch of updates or had this kind of issues altogether.. single user mode works | 13:41 |
| theadmin | ikonia: I think so, yes, much easier to just click "remove old kernels". Methinks. Though you are right, nothing hard with that... Except with Oneiric you'll have to actually *install* a GUI package manager... *mumbles about them removing synaptic from the standard release* | 13:41 |
| * reisio rm's his old kernels | 13:41 | |
| ikonia | reisio: that is foolish also | 13:41 |
| ikonia | theadmin: the removal of synaptic isn't helpful to that situation, I agree | 13:42 |
| theadmin | reisio: Eh... this way APT will just redownload them when it needs to | 13:42 |
| reisio | yan_: I'm not banishing you from here, as if I could, merely referring you to someplace I think might be more useful | 13:42 |
| reisio | ikonia: nah | 13:42 |
| maahes | is it possible to enable samba on a casper-rw usb? I'm trying to install but getting a ton of errors | 13:42 |
| ikonia | theadmin: however I'd rather re-install synaptic than install ubuntu-tweak which has some dubious tools | 13:42 |
| ikonia | reisio: breaks your package manager | 13:42 |
| maahes | !samba | 13:42 |
| ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 13:42 |
| reisio | ikonia: only if you used the package manager to install the kernel :) | 13:42 |
| ikonia | reisio: well, yes, that is the core factor | 13:42 |

| theadmin | maahes: You have some seriously messed up permission problems there, your root folder is not owned by root. You need to, at the very least, "sudo chown root:root /", maybe will have to dig further... | 13:48 |
| yan_ | can ubuntu 11.10 even go into runlevel 3? init 3 from single user mode still tries to start x.org | 13:48 |
| walid_ | and i get that automake has not input file | 13:48 |
| theadmin | !runlevels | yan_ | 13:48 |
| ubottu | yan_: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 13:48 |
| theadmin | yan_: You just want to stop lightdm normally (sudo service lightdm stop) or, if going from grub, append "text" to the kernel line | 13:49 |
| maahes | !upstart | 13:50 |

| reisio | ro_70s: did you try running 'reboot' or 'shutdown -h now' from a term? | 13:59 |
| theadmin | ro_70s: If multiple users are logged in you need to have admin rights in order to shutdown, just do "sudo poweroff" | 13:59 |

| mnk | mufflon, trying to replace some malicious code which is in hundreds of files on our server | 14:23 |
| ikonia | tippenein: so either a.) there is a missconfiguration in your network manager config - eg: password/encyption method b.) there is a bug in network manager with your access point | 14:23 |

| drPoO | hi all. I am trying to free up some space on my ubuntu server 10.04 /boot directory. I want to remove old kernels to fix a problem I have. I am running 'sudo apt-get remove linux-image-2.6.32-21-server' and get an unmet dependencies error: http://pastebin.com/cP61hzXG | 15:40 |
| DLabz | zth: I'll try that | 15:40 |
| D3prehens1o | at first times* And excuse me for interrupting your questions. | 15:40 |

| riviera71 | Hello html_5 | 15:42 |
| riviera71 | do you do any web development? | 15:43 |
| zth | D3prehens1o, i would logically assume that your error is due to having no name set or something similar to that inside your client | 15:43 |
| html_5 | you too riviera71 | 15:43 |

| riviera71 | nothing specific, I just decided to start looking at IRC for people who may know a thing or two about web application programing | 15:45 |
| zth | drPoO, it's tied to the linux-image-server. what kernel are you currently running? | 15:45 |
| riviera71 | I'm not too bad with PHP and JavaScript, but I'm always looking build a group of people I can ask for help, as well as contribute to | 15:46 |
| drPoO | zth, 2.6.32-33-server | 15:46 |
| drPoO | zth, the /boot partition is full | 15:46 |
| zth | drPoO, did you try adding -f in the remove command? | 15:46 |
| riviera71 | The was the first room I logged into this morning | 15:46 |
| drPoO | zth, yup I get the same error | 15:47 |
| drPoO | zth, E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution). | 15:47 |
| html_5 | riviera71, well there here alright but getting one is like asking them on there 30 lunch break ... thats id they got a job , there are some nomads around here but you nneed to catch one.. | 15:48 |

| dlentz | you can install windows after ubuntu, but then you have to install grub over the windows bootloader | 15:56 |
| Anton___ | ok | 15:56 |
| zth | Anton___, google dualboot windows ubuntu | 15:56 |
| LiNuX`sup | you need to create a windows partition from within linux fist | 15:56 |
| LiNuX`sup | first* | 15:56 |
| djQuery | then the ubuntu installer will be pretty self explainatory | 15:56 |

| LiNuX`sup | you gparted to create an NTFS partition on the disk... then put in windows cd, reboot and select that partition to install | 15:57 |
| LiNuX`sup | a windows cd will not over write an ext3 partition | 15:57 |
| dlentz | Daulity, I hate it when 64-bit drivers aren't up to snuff and the 32-bit ones are | 15:57 |

| zth | raphaelle, no, it's the same message. do you have to compile yourself, is there no precompiled packages? | 16:13 |
| mbeierl | vincentng, first: you will need patience. Second: unmount the disk with the deleted data now. If that means shutting down the computer, then do so. The longer you have it mounted read/write, the more data will be overwritten. Now, get another computer and download a Live CD or USB | 16:13 |
| rick_ | ubuntu can initiate software | 16:14 |
| ikonia | rick_: do you have an ubuntu support question yes/no | 16:14 |
| vincentng | its my laptop harddisk | 16:14 |
| raphaelle | zth : the developper himself told me I'd rather use last version, and I just can't find any available package... | 16:14 |
| MonkeyDust | rick_ it seems you didnt come to the right channel for advice | 16:14 |
| rick_ | yes i keep freezing any idea i know it not from a natural overheat | 16:14 |
| ikonia | rick_: your hardware keeps locking up / freezing ? | 16:15 |
| rick_ | its ubuntu or hardware to cause freeze | 16:15 |
| pangolin | Pici: probably some DDoS spamware | 16:15 |
| mbeierl | vincentng, once you have that, you will boot the computer with the deleted files using the live usb/cd. You can then go through some of the data recovery steps listed here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery | 16:15 |
| ikonia | rick_: what version of ubuntu are you using | 16:15 |
| holstein | rick_: i would look at the graphics drivers | 16:15 |

| ikonia | rick_: ok, my first suggestion is when the machine next freezes, press the caps lock button and see if the capslock light comes on / off | 16:15 |
| ubuntuman1 | HEY IKONIA UP YOUR UBUNTU IGNORANT SLAVE | 16:15 |
| rick_ | what to look for in grafics drivers | 16:15 |
| ikonia | Pici: MonkeyDust there we go | 16:15 |
| holstein | you can also physically inspect the machine... see if there is a bunch of dust around something inside rick_ | 16:16 |

| macmartine | What would keep debian-backports-keyring from authenticating? https://gist.github.com/1760487 | 16:16 |
| mbeierl | vincentng, I realize that this is very scary, losing your data without a backup, but this is not something that can be solved easily. You must be very patience, and in some cases, might require additional hardware (such as a second hard drive) in order to store the recovered data | 16:16 |
| rick_ | so hardware can do this freeze | 16:16 |
| ikonia | rick_: well, do the test I said when it next freezes and report back | 16:17 |
| rick_ | ok pal | 16:17 |
| holstein | rick_: i have seen that... a lot of dust or pet hair inside... causing heat to build up | 16:17 |
| brkolog | rick_: is it dusty inside? | 16:17 |
| compdoc | video cards get hot when youre playing a game | 16:17 |
| kalgecin | hey guys, | 16:18 |
| kalgecin | i get this error | 16:18 |
| kalgecin | route_dst_netlink: can't find interface "lo" | 16:18 |
| stoycho | pangolin, i am not allow to ask anything in the channel says not sending to the channel when i write something | 16:18 |
| brkolog | I recently cleaned a PC and freezing disappeared. Apparently there was a short caused by the dust around the graphics card. | 16:18 |
| compdoc | lo is the loop back device, no? | 16:18 |
| megajewels | hello | 16:18 |
| zachtib | so, I'm trying to build a customized ubuntu image for installation on multiple machines, does anyone have suggestions on what tools to use for this (I've messed around with using debootstrap and live-helper) Ideally, I'd like a drive image file I can just image onto the new machines, no installation process. thanks | 16:18 |
| holstein | yup... its likely that, if this is a desktop, you might be able to get another fan in there and cool it down rick_ ...if you dont see dirt in there | 16:18 |
| ikonia | compdoc: correct | 16:18 |
| dlentz | kalgecin, is it defined in /etc/network.interface? | 16:18 |
| pangolin | !register |stoycho you need to register your nick | 16:19 |
| ubottu | stoycho you need to register your nick: Information about registering your nickname: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat/Registration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname. Registration help available by typing /join #freenode | 16:19 |
| Trevor69420 | zachtib: are you deploying these images over a network? | 16:19 |
| kalgecin | dlentz, cat /etc/network/interfaces | 16:19 |
| kalgecin | auto lo | 16:19 |
| kalgecin | iface lo inet loopback | 16:19 |
| LjL | stoycho: it's always a good idea to read the /topic when you enter a channel. they have instructions for registering. | 16:19 |
| megajewels | is there a repository where i can find buntu drivers? | 16:19 |
| zachtib | Trevor69420, not at the moment. Something I can just dd would be fine for now | 16:19 |
| holstein | megajewels: they are mostly just in the kernel... what are you having issues with? | 16:20 |
| Trevor69420 | :-\ i've only depolyed ubuntu installs over a network using FOG | 16:20 |
| megajewels | i dont have 3d capabilities | 16:20 |
| zachtib | Trevor69420, in the end, I think we'll be giving this image to our hardware vendor so the machines will come pre-imaged | 16:20 |
| stoycho | i will fix that in a second ;) | 16:20 |
| holstein | megajewels: i would see about what graphics card you have... you can run lspci in a terminal or just search the manufacturer... sometimes 3d is not possible though | 16:21 |
| dlentz | megajewels, what video card (lspci) | 16:21 |
| pangolin | megajewels: what video card do you have? | 16:21 |
| Trevor69420 | zachtib: how do you want to install them? from CD or directly to an external hard drive? | 16:21 |
| vincentng | what is the file i need to recover for thunderbird emails?!!?!? | 16:21 |
| vincentng | help | 16:21 |
| ldiamond | I have a ubuntu server setup with software raid1. Will I be warned in any way if a disk goes down? Will the machine stop working until the broken disk is replaced? | 16:21 |
| megajewels | my video card is S3 p4m900 | 16:21 |

| jj995 | I'm trying to disable avahi-daemon from starting on reboot -- how do I do this? I already tried "update-rc.d -f avahi-daemon remove" and "chkconfig avahi-daemon off", but neither seem to work | 16:21 |
| kion | I messsed up Unity, by changing something on the compiz config window, is there a way to restore Unity to its "Default" values? | 16:22 |
| zachtib | Trevor69420, probably via dd or whatever the vendor uses. I'm more concerned atm with what tools to create the custom image with | 16:22 |
| Trevor69420 | ldiamond, the point of RAID1 is to be an exact copy.. so no it wont go down | 16:22 |
| rick_ | well dangit it wont freeze now | 16:22 |
| ikonia | vincentng: I'm really, sorry but your data is gone | 16:22 |
| ikonia | vincentng: asking over and over again won't make it come back | 16:22 |
| ikonia | rick_: that's ok, just stick with it | 16:22 |
| Trevor69420 | yes but zachtib i am asking how will the image be stored for deployment? | 16:22 |
| zachtib | I'd like a script file that builds an image from the repos with our required packages. something I can run every month or so to generate an up-to-date image | 16:22 |
| ikonia | rick_: make a note, when it does freeze, come back and explain the test you've just run | 16:22 |
| rick_ | okee dokke | 16:23 |
| Trevor69420 | are you just copying from drive to drive or do you want to copy to a CD and then install the same image? | 16:23 |
| zachtib | Trevor69420, probably just as a raw disk image file | 16:23 |
| zachtib | no cd | 16:23 |
| macmartine | How do I point ISPConfig to a different nginx install? | 16:23 |
| * Trevor69420 hits head on table | 16:23 | |
| Trevor69420 | ok then just use clonezilla | 16:23 |
| vincentng | even if i use scalper or testdisk? | 16:23 |
| jj995 | how do I stop a service, specifically avahi-daemon, from starting on boot up? | 16:23 |
| Scarra3 | Morning everyone | 16:24 |
| ldiamond | Trevor69420, How will I be warned then? | 16:24 |
| Trevor69420 | well depends on the RAID card ldiamond | 16:24 |
| theadmin | zachtib: Generate a raw disk image every month? Add this to /etc/crontab: @monthly dd if=/dev/sda of=/path/to/image.raw | 16:24 |
| vincentng | how do i use scalper and testdisk to recover ~/.thunderbird? | 16:24 |
| Trevor69420 | some can monitor and then create a log file | 16:24 |
| ldiamond | Trevor69420, it's not a raid card, it's software raid | 16:24 |
| Trevor69420 | i see | 16:24 |
| vincentng | how do i use scalper and testdisk to recover ~/.thunderbird? | 16:24 |
| vincentng | how do i use scalper and testdisk to recover ~/.thunderbird? | 16:24 |
| ldiamond | Trevor69420, raid cards beep and won't let you boot unless you override it | 16:25 |
| Trevor69420 | ldiamond, http://superuser.com/questions/11333/in-ubuntu-how-to-get-email-notifications-about-software-raid-problems | 16:25 |
| HaruSiga | @vincentng when did you lose your data. I'm asking because depending on that time we can get your files back. | 16:25 |
| ldiamond | vincentng, shut up. | 16:25 |
| mbeierl | vincentng, did you unmount the disk? | 16:25 |
| vincentng | im using it now | 16:25 |
| Trevor69420 | ldiamond, mine never beeps | 16:25 |
| Scarra3 | How do I disable my integrated graphics card in ubuntu because I don't have that choice in bios | 16:25 |
| mbeierl | vincentng, using what? | 16:25 |
| vincentng | 15 mins ago | 16:25 |
| vincentng | i lose everything | 16:25 |
| Trevor69420 | i get an email that says raid is down but it stays operational | 16:25 |
| mbeierl | vincentng, the disk that has the lost data on it? | 16:25 |
| vincentng | yes | 16:25 |
| MonkeyDust | vincentng the longer you stay here, the more data you're losing, follow the channel's advice asap | 16:26 |
| HaruSiga | I once formatted my entire drive, but I recovered most of my files. | 16:26 |
| mbeierl | vincentng, then I cannot help you. I gave you specific instructions to follow and you did not. I told you the more you use the disk with the lost data, the more you are overwiriting your lost data. | 16:26 |
| Trevor69420 | i have a 3ware 9650se RAID card tho | 16:26 |
| zachtib | theadmin, I'm more asking if there's a better tool than, say, manually building an image in virtualbox | 16:26 |
| twisted` | I've always wondered why the selection list for countries | 16:26 |
| twisted` | has stuff like Nigeria in it | 16:26 |
| twisted` | but not Germany | 16:26 |
| Trevor69420 | zachtib, did u look at clonezilla? | 16:26 |
| twisted` | so I mean the first selection you get when installing | 16:26 |
| twisted` | always made me wonder | 16:26 |
| compdoc | Trevor69420, install their software for the webpage gui. you prbably have a drive thats dropping out from bad sectors | 16:26 |
| theadmin | zachtib: Hm... Wait, you want to build a custom image? Try Reconstructor (either the online version (which is NOT free) or just download it and run yourself), it does that | 16:26 |
| Trevor69420 | compdoc: huh? | 16:27 |
| Trevor69420 | i dont have any problems | 16:27 |
| compdoc | nm - read that wrong | 16:27 |
| anudaasa | trevor, yes, me too :-) | 16:27 |
| Trevor69420 | i think u misunderstan.... i was talking to ldiamond | 16:27 |
| ldiamond | Trevor69420, ugh... that's odd. The system should just hang up at boot time and let you ssh in in order for you to acknowledge and either keep using it or power it down. | 16:28 |
| Trevor69420 | nope | 16:28 |
| zachtib | Trevor69420, yes, but that's not really what I'm looking for. I'm not concerned with how to distribute the image at this point, but what tools exist for generating a customized Ubuntu image without having to manually install it and set it up - both live-helper and debootstrap have come close, but not exactly what I need | 16:28 |
| Trevor69420 | the idea is that the system stays operational | 16:28 |
| Scarra3 | any ideas? | 16:28 |
| MonkeyDust | zachtib there's remastersys | 16:28 |
| Trevor69420 | zachtib, i believe it can create an ISO and store it on a local drive | 16:28 |
| Trevor69420 | to be deployed later | 16:28 |
| anudaasa | question: did dd good backup, if there is some open file ? | 16:29 |
| theadmin | zachtib: Remastersys to store the current system, Reconstructor to create from scratch | 16:29 |
| Trevor69420 | what did anton do? | 16:30 |
| Trevor69420 | lol | 16:30 |
| Trevor69420 | ldiamond, not sure why ur system isnt staying operational to be honest | 16:30 |
| Trevor69420 | but i dont know much about software RAID | 16:31 |
| Trevor69420 | (I much rather use a RAID card) | 16:31 |
| stoycho | is there way to delete the graphic driver with command line | 16:31 |
| Trevor69420 | tho my home router has a software RAID (it's a GX270 running ubuntu) | 16:31 |
| ikonia | stoycho: #backtrack-linux fro backtrack | 16:31 |
| Trevor69420 | i've never had a failiure tho | 16:31 |
| ikonia | "for" | 16:32 |
| kermit | has anyone heard of any problems with compiz and i915 (intel mobile graphics 4) in ubuntu 11.10? | 16:32 |
| jiltdil | is skype not available for 64 bit ubuntu? | 16:33 |
| Trevor69420 | there are no problems kermit... only illusions of them | 16:33 |
| ldiamond | Trevor69420, oh I didn't say it wasn't operational. I personally don't want it to work if raid is degraded. That would be enough of a warning for me to figure it out and fix it before the 2nd drive fails | 16:33 |
| Trevor69420 | ldiamond, i suppose it depends on the situation my servers are mission critical so we dont want downtime | 16:34 |
| LjL | jiltdil: no but you can use the 32bit version | 16:34 |
| jiltdil | LjL, is it workkd fine | 16:34 |
| pangolin | jiltdil: install ia32-libs-multiarch and then you can install the 32 bit skype | 16:34 |
| Trevor69420 | but if it fails and the system isnt running you wnt be able to get an email notification | 16:34 |
| Trevor69420 | or any notification that i know of | 16:34 |
| LjL | jiltdil: http://www.skype.com/intl/it/get-skype/on-your-computer/linux/downloading.ubuntu64 is a 32-bit version that will work on 64-bit | 16:34 |
| rick_ | ok friend its just bieng shut down it didnt freeze its like i clicked shutdown the ubuntu log off screen came up then it shut off | 16:34 |
| LjL | jiltdil: well, that link will show up in italian though, maybe better find your own link | 16:35 |
| Trevor69420 | rick_ sounds like overheating | 16:35 |
| dlentz | anyone running precise? | 16:35 |
| Trevor69420 | it could be your graphics card or your CPU or even your PSU | 16:35 |
| pangolin | http://www.skype.com/intl/en/get-skype/on-your-computer/linux/downloading.ubuntu64 | 16:35 |
| LjL | dlentz: everyone in #ubuntu+1 is | 16:35 |
| rick_ | how do i check for over heating and how does it happen by someones command | 16:35 |
| LjL | dlentz: (probably) | 16:35 |
| ldiamond | Trevor69420, if you reboot a server anyways, you'd be expecting some downtime. Or maybe you're behind a load balancer and you can bounce them one by one. Always depends on the situation. | 16:35 |
| dlentz | oh, thanks | 16:35 |
| Trevor69420 | ldiamond we never reboot so i dunno | 16:36 |
| Trevor69420 | lol | 16:36 |
| jiltdil | LjL thanks | 16:36 |
| Trevor69420 | my server has been operational for nearly 2 years | 16:36 |
| MonkeyDust | nice | 16:36 |
| Trevor69420 | the chances of two drives failing at the same time are pretty slim | 16:36 |
| ldiamond | Trevor69420, if it's so mission critical, I really hope you're behind a load balancer and have redundancy. | 16:37 |
| Trevor69420 | yes we have redundancy | 16:37 |
| MonkeyDust | Trevor69420 i havent followed, RAID? | 16:37 |
| Trevor69420 | and load balancing isnt neccessary all the time | 16:37 |
| Trevor69420 | but we do have redundancy | 16:37 |
| ldiamond | the load balancer can be used to simply manage the redundancy | 16:37 |
| dagerik | I am running a modified 10.04 on my cheap minipc because I has GMA500 on it. How can I make it as fast as possible? Which desktop environment is the lightest one? And are there any other settings I should consider? | 16:37 |
| ldiamond | i.e. configured as 100% and failover. | 16:37 |
| Pumpkin- | ldiamond: and what do you do when the load balancer fails ? :) | 16:38 |
| rick_ | any ideas | 16:38 |
| MonkeyDust | !jwm| dagerik | 16:38 |
| ldiamond | Pumpkin-, you are behind a CDN, you're redirected to a slower region | 16:38 |
| MonkeyDust | !info jwm| dagerik | 16:38 |
| anudaasa | what is load balancer ? | 16:38 |
| ubottu | 'dagerik' is not a valid distribution: hardy, hardy-backports, hardy-proposed, kubuntu-backports, kubuntu-experimental, kubuntu-updates, lucid, lucid-backports, lucid-proposed, maverick, maverick-backports, maverick-proposed, medibuntu, natty, natty-backports, natty-proposed, oneiric, oneiric-backports, oneiric-proposed, partner, precise, precise-backports, precise-proposed, stable, testing, unstable | 16:38 |
| Trevor69420 | the load balancer balances load... my router takes care of the reduncacy issue... i have two servers replicating all the time if one fails my router picks it up and makes neccessary dns changes so from the end user perspective nothing changes | 16:38 |
| ldiamond | Pumpkin-, but then that doesn't work against the entire internet going down either | 16:38 |
| ldiamond | Pumpkin-, or the sun exploding. | 16:38 |
| anudaasa | Trevor, aha | 16:39 |
| MonkeyDust | oh well, dagerik try jwm | 16:39 |
| jorisw | Hi. Ubuntu 11.10. How do I make a PHP script accessible to an incoming email piped to it using .forward in a user's homedir? | 16:39 |
| Trevor69420 | but besides the point... i'm saying when my raid fails my system doesnt stop responding | 16:39 |
| Trevor69420 | i havent used RAID 1 in a very long time tho | 16:39 |
| Trevor69420 | currently using RAID 10 | 16:39 |
| ldiamond | Trevor69420, I agree, but booting a degraded array should warn you somehow. Maybe require you to ssh | 16:39 |
| Trevor69420 | spanned across 48 x 1TB raid drives | 16:39 |
| melvincv | Trevor69420, what router is that? That can do automatic DNS changes? I'm curious... | 16:40 |
| ldiamond | Trevor69420, consider ZFS :p | 16:40 |
| Trevor69420 | ldiamond well the raid card displays on the BIOS if the raid is degraded | 16:40 |
| ldiamond | yea well, raid cards will beep and send emails usually | 16:40 |
| Trevor69420 | but it also shows on the command line of the OS and on the web interface for the raid card | 16:40 |
| Trevor69420 | the card doesnt beep | 16:40 |
| ldiamond | but it's custom software | 16:40 |
| Trevor69420 | or send emails | 16:40 |
| ldiamond | and set in the bios | 16:40 |
| Trevor69420 | the OS sends emails | 16:40 |
| Pumpkin- | heh, of course not. I'm designing a rather large, distributed DNS system right now. I'm trying to avoid load balancers by having multiple anycasted nodes around the network, but in some locations I'll need more than a single server to keep up with QPS from the clients. I've got a solution that works (/31 v4, or /126 v6) interlinks, with the service IP announed to the router via BGP (quagga) and the routers ECMP across the interlinks. | 16:40 |
| Trevor69420 | i only have ubuntu read the status | 16:41 |
| ldiamond | Trevor69420, it often sends email through the driver | 16:41 |
| Trevor69420 | i use Hobbit monitoring to monitor the status | 16:41 |
| Pumpkin- | the thing I'm struggling with right now is making it work well under failures. | 16:41 |
| Trevor69420 | no it doesnt | 16:41 |
| ldiamond | I've seen many of those yes. | 16:41 |
| ldiamond | vendor specific | 16:41 |
| jorisw | As which user does the system perform operations that are in a users .forward file, if the system is running postfix? | 16:41 |
| Trevor69420 | hobbit monitors the tw_cli and when it sees degraded it sends me an email of the output of tw_cli show c0 u0 | 16:41 |
| Trevor69420 | the driver doesnt do emailing at all | 16:42 |
| ldiamond | maybe not yours. | 16:42 |
| Trevor69420 | well i cant speak for all RAID cards | 16:42 |
| Trevor69420 | but i'm just saying with software raid if your system goes down after raid is degraded i wouldnt know how to get the system to send you a notice of it | 16:42 |
| Trevor69420 | i mean if you were monitoring the ping request maybe from another server of that machine then it could at least tell you it's down | 16:43 |
| Trevor69420 | ping requests are just an example | 16:43 |
| Trevor69420 | or maybe monitor something else like a script that doesnt run would tell you the server is down | 16:43 |
| rick_ | how to use lm sensors and how to install i know nothing | 16:44 |
| Trevor69420 | but the server could be down for a number of reasons unrelated to the RAID | 16:44 |

| x_coder | I have a Tablet with Win7. I want to install Ubuntu on an SD Card. If I set /boot to the main drive (sd1) and the rest to the SD card, will grub boot without the SD Card installed? | 16:53 |
| ldiamond | rick_, it doesn't even have a question mark. | 16:53 |
| rick_ | i just installed lm sensors what next to look for overheating | 16:53 |
| ldiamond | x_coder, it depends on where you install grub (or any other bootloader you're using) | 16:53 |
| x_coder | ldiamond, basically my question is, does grub only require /boot if that is where it is installed? | 16:54 |
| ldiamond | x_coder, no | 16:55 |
| ldiamond | x_coder, during the install, it asks you which device you want to install the boot loader on | 16:55 |
| ldiamond | rick_, type sudo sensors in a terminal | 16:55 |
| x_coder | bootloader will go to sda1 mrb | 16:55 |
| x_coder | mbr | 16:56 |
| theadmin | x_coder: Grub's configuration and kernel images (as well as initramfs) are stored in /boot. In Ubuntu, /etc/grub.d and /etc/default/grub are also important. However, grub itself resides in MBR. | 16:56 |

| designbybeck | ah, didn't know there was a hardware section | 17:05 |
| designbybeck | dlentz, what is it used for? | 17:05 |
| dlentz | to provide more power to the card since the PCI slot can only give it so much juice | 17:05 |
| dlentz | the 6800 is a power-hungry card | 17:06 |
| theadmin | kion: Sure. But I'd like to point out that this is *not* gnome2, and not all features are available. I suggest you just switch to XFCE. Gnome2 is no longer supported. | 17:06 |

| john_doe_jr | unperson, yup, I didn't realize that it would be under man less | 17:07 |
| unperson | john_doe_jr, Okay, actually looking at that man page I see that hitting 'n' does the trick too. | 17:07 |
| unperson | john_doe_jr, Yeah. I think that's the default pager used by man (although this is probably configurable). Without that info, though, there's really no reason you'd know to look there. | 17:08 |

| compdoc | manox, does it have vino? | 17:28 |
| Dr_willis | with a vncclient and the ip#:session number if you got a vnc server running | 17:29 |
| Dr_willis | Theres other vnc servers out then vino. it depends on how you want to do it. You dont normally just take over the current desktop however. (except in vino's case since its part of gnome) | 17:29 |
| manox | compdoc: nope I'm using vnc4server | 17:29 |
| compdoc | vino is easy and built in | 17:30 |
| compdoc | manox, thats cool - I use vnc4server too | 17:30 |
| Dr_willis | vnc4server does NOT take over the current visible desktop. You run it and it spawns its own 'hidden' session | 17:30 |
| Dr_willis | You could have a dozen+ such sessions | 17:30 |
| compdoc | manox, do you have a script for vnc4server in /etc/init.d/ ? | 17:30 |
| manox | compdoc: no I haven't edited init.d | 17:31 |
| Dr_willis | You can set up vnc to start a login session at boot you connect to. but then you can lose some of vnc neater features | 17:31 |
| compdoc | Dr_willis, yes, vino lets you connect to a desktop session | 17:31 |
| Dr_willis | vino is a special case of vnc. (just making that clear) | 17:31 |
| compdoc | with vnc4server, you can connect even when no one is logged onto the console | 17:32 |
| Dr_willis | Only a few of the vncservers out there you can share the 'current visible' desktop. most of them have their own private hidden desktops you connect to. | 17:33 |

| urlin2u | Ahmuck, this is ubuntu support if what your looking for is a 3rd party device you might try other channels. :) | 17:50 |
| w30 | danik, It's refreshing to have someone as polite as you join our little group here *smile* | 17:50 |
| Ahmuck | gtg ... perhaps spicebird | 17:50 |
| rhys | have a question if anyone is familar with Ubuntu's ejecting thing. I have a drive 'ejected' but still plugged in. I need to mount it remotely. | 17:50 |
| danik | w30 did i fail anything ? :(( sorry | 17:50 |
| Ahmuck | urlin2u: it is ubuntu support, specifically what ubuntu is packaging and it's consitinaty over long term for solutions | 17:50 |
| Dr_willis | qo_op: you use One OR the other.. addational-drivers tool installs differnt driver versions then the .run drivers most likely now a days | 17:51 |
| Ahmuck | l8r | 17:51 |
| rhys | what does Ubuntu's eject do that makes the drive unable to be accessed? | 17:51 |
| Dr_willis | rhys: eject here spits out the cd tray.. | 17:51 |
| Dr_willis | rhys: what eject are you refering to? | 17:51 |
| Dr_willis | Im refering to the 'eject' command. | 17:51 |
| qo_op | Dr_willis, .run? dont understand what that is, sorry. | 17:51 |
| w30 | danik, No, No, just the opposite. Welcome | 17:52 |
| danik | w30 thx dude :) | 17:52 |
| Dr_willis | qo_op: last i looked the ati drivers came as a whatevername.run that you run to install. | 17:52 |
| Dr_willis | the ati drivers here. did not work very well with gnome-shell for me. ;( | 17:53 |
| qo_op | Dr_willis, yeah now i understand :) | 17:53 |
| Dr_willis | they worked on with unity. but still had a few issues with them. Im back to using the open sourced drivers. | 17:54 |
| qo_op | open sourced drivers = additional drivers rigth? | 17:54 |
| Dr_willis | qo_op: NO. | 17:54 |
| qo_op | Dr_willis, what is the command for pastebin your lsmod output | 17:55 |
| Dr_willis | addational-drivers tool installs the ati/fglrx drivers from the repos. but they are an older version | 17:55 |
| Dr_willis | lsmod | pastebinit | 17:55 |
| eggsby | Hi. I'm having a problem getting custom keyboard shortcuts to work... when I run a command via 'alt+f2' it works fine, but it refuses to map to a custom keyboard shortcut apparently | 17:55 |
| rhys | Dr_willis, put in a usb drive. hit the 'eject' button in nautulis. i have no idea what that eject does, but it makes the drive inaccessible to the kernel. | 17:55 |
| eggsby | what might I try? | 17:55 |
| Dr_willis | eggsby: give it a full path perhaps? | 17:55 |
| eggsby | did that :( | 17:55 |
| Caddyshack | clear | 17:55 |
| Dr_willis | rhys: i always use unmount. :) i think eject actaually powers off the device , untill its reinserted. | 17:56 |
| rhys | Dr_willis, exactly. happen to know how to do that remotely? | 17:56 |
| eggsby | I should just be able to make a shortcut to say, /usr/bin/google-chrome to open chrome, right? | 17:56 |
| Dr_willis | rhys: never tried or needed to. | 17:56 |
| rhys | Dr_willis, me niether. until rightn ow | 17:56 |
| Dr_willis | bed time for the doctor. gotta run. | 17:56 |
| Dr_willis | rhys: perhaps check askubuntu on 'how unmount and eject differ' ? | 17:57 |
| rhys | Dr_willis, ty. | 17:57 |
| Dr_willis | it may be using the eject command, or some other thing | 17:57 |
| danik | Ok i installed ubuntu server and i can connect to my router (i ping and see the reasault) but when i try to ping google,com or ip address of google its says host is unknow or network unreachable i have a dhcp server on my router and also given my mac addr to have a static ip address. my /etc/resolv.conf is empty anybody knows my problem ? | 17:57 |
| dbugger | hey guys I have a webserver and im using a dynamic ip with no-ip. When computers outside my local network try to access it, works great, but when I write the dynamic ip inside the local netword im redirected to the router configuration page. What is failing? | 17:58 |
| compdoc | danik, because your /etc/resolv.conf is empty | 17:58 |
| Pumpkin- | danik: sounds like you don't have a default route, what is the output of netstat -nr ? | 17:59 |
| danik | compdoc as far as i know its just for dns server but when i try to ping with ip address it also wont work :( | 17:59 |
| Pumpkin- | oh, or maybe DNS too, sorry, missed that /etc/resolv.conf was empty | 17:59 |
| w30 | danik, ping an actual ip number; if you can then you probably need to set a dns server to convert names to numbers | 18:00 |
| danik | pumpkin- i will now loginto the linux and tell u | 18:00 |
| danik | w30 sir actually i tried this too | 18:00 |
| danik | w30 i saw network unreachable | 18:00 |
| Pumpkin- | (you said you could ping your router, but not things off the local lan ?) | 18:00 |
| danik | yeah | 18:00 |
| danik | nothing on internet | 18:01 |
| iceroot | danik: local lan is not internet | 18:02 |

| captainjamie | Ok, something really wierd is going on and I don't know what to do. I was playing Supertuxkart (It is an epic game) but it crashed to the login screen when I enabled vsync. So I logged back in but gnome-shell goes to the old gnome 2 look and unity looks like this: | 18:07 |
| captainjamie | http://i.imgur.com/2V1M8.png | 18:07 |
| captainjamie | So I tried to run unity in a terminal and the screen flashes then shows this: | 18:07 |

| mbeierl | captainjamie, haven't seen that recently, but sometimes an X server crash can leave the video card in a state where it thinks something is already using the 3d GPU (or something?) and only a reboot can convince it to let go. | 18:11 |
| captainjamie | mbeierl: thanks, I'll reboot now. | 18:14 |
| captainjamie | mbeierl: I thought doing pkill X would be enough... | 18:14 |

| NickHu | Have a ubuntu system that I just upgraded | 18:15 |
| NickHu | And it seems to be frozen on boot after "Checking for running unattended-upgrades:" | 18:15 |
| NickHu | How long does this process take? | 18:16 |
| captainjamie | Oh yeah, a reboot fixed it. I tend to assume that if pkill X doesn't work rebooting won't fix it. Well you live and learn. Thanks again | 18:16 |
| amitkeret | Hi all. I can't seem to get a temp. read from my GPU in the gnome-panel applet. tried psensors, but also no read. Anyone know how to get lm-sensors to recognise my GPU? | 18:17 |

| nsd_ | Hello | 18:20 |
| urlin2u | nsd_, howdeeeee. :) | 18:20 |
| Scarra3 | what are some good reasons to go with ubuntu | 18:21 |
| lucia | tar xvzf buduscript_3606_xchat2.tar.gz -C $HOME/.xchat2 | 18:21 |
| lucia | cd $HOME/.xchat2/buduscript | 18:21 |
| lucia | ./install.sh | 18:21 |
| mangochutney | Scarra3, easier to learn than slackware? | 18:21 |
| urlin2u | Scarra3, autonomy. :) | 18:21 |
| nsd_ | Regarding the temporary gdm session scripts, I've noticed that at some point they seem to populate the temporary home directory with /etc/skel, yet when I place files in there, they are not copied. iirc there is also a script that is responsible for changing certain directory names (like Desktop and Documents and Photos) appropriate to the user's language. Anyone know what that script is? | 18:21 |
| Scarra3 | well my current problem is disabling my integrated graphics card and there is not option to disable it in my bios | 18:22 |
| mangochutney | Scarra3, that's not linux's fault | 18:22 |
| urlin2u | Scarra3, with ubuntu? | 18:22 |
| Scarra3 | I know lol I just don't know how to disable it threw the OS | 18:22 |
| Scarra3 | for windows its the device manager for ubuntu I have no clue | 18:23 |
| lucia | tar xvzf buduscript_3606_xchat2.tar.gz -C $HOME/.xchat2 | 18:23 |
| lucia | cd $HOME/.xchat2/buduscript | 18:23 |
| lucia | ./install.sh | 18:24 |
| oCean | lucia: ? do you have a support question? | 18:24 |
| lucia | install plugin | 18:24 |
| urlin2u | Scarra3, if you hang somebody will probably get you set up. :) | 18:24 |
| dbugger | hey guys I have a webserver and im using a dynamic ip with no-ip. When computers outside my local network try to access it, works great. It redirects to my computer. But when I write the dynamic ip inside the local netword im redirected to the router configuration page, in 192.168.1.1. What is missing? | 18:24 |
| mangochutney | lucia, just curious, why are you typing commands here? | 18:24 |
| xsl | guys is it ok to have /var with nodev,nosuid,noatime,noexec mount point options? | 18:24 |
| Scarra3 | urlin2u: alright thanks | 18:24 |
| lucia | to install plugin | 18:24 |
| xsl | not sure if ubuntu uses /var/run for something | 18:24 |
| llutz | dbugger: you need to enable nat loopback/writeback on your router | 18:25 |
| pangolin | lucia: you run those commands in a !terminal | 18:25 |
| pangolin | !terminal | 18:25 |
| ubottu | The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome), K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE), or Menu -> Accessories -> LXTerminal (LXDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 18:25 |
| dbugger | llutz, I dont know what that is... could you please tell me how? | 18:25 |
| llutz | dbugger: read your routers manual, check if it has such an option. | 18:26 |
| dbugger | I dont see it. Its quite a cheap one. If its a advanced feature, it never has it... | 18:26 |
| dbugger | llutz, thats the only options? | 18:27 |
| llutz | dbugger: then you're lost. you need to enable this option to access your LAN via external IP from LAN | 18:27 |
| llutz | dbugger: or you have to use a proxy outside your LAN, should work too | 18:27 |
| dbugger | llutz, damm... | 18:27 |
| nsd_ | I guess a better question is, is anyone familiar with the scripts in /usr/share/gdm/guest-session? | 18:28 |
| nsd_ | that could perhaps tell me why the contents of /etc/skel don't get copied? | 18:28 |
| urlin2u | Scarra3, no problem, here on this channel if you have a exacting description, including the graphics card your more likely to get help as well. | 18:28 |

| urlin2u | jdoe_, you might describe the crash for help. You would not be removing something from home to fix it as far as I know. | 18:31 |

| mbeierl | captainjamie, sorry - went afk. yes, there is something there, perhaps unloading the video driver module might do the trick too. It's not the X server, it's the kernel module itself that somehow keeps the reservation on some internal resource | 18:35 |

| djQuery | bronaugh, just use it to do what I need then close it out | 19:07 |
| bronaugh | ok, to be fair, maybe not entirely. it could be spinning because of a crappy gfx driver or the like, which might be slightly resolvable. | 19:07 |
| wildc4rd | Is there a way I can set Ubuntu to automatically close an app (VLC in this case) on a timer? | 19:07 |

| ChrisGagnon | graft: if you select a project like ubuntu -> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu you can then select the report a bug link to write a bug | 19:20 |
| i_is_broke | djQuery, you might be able to go into system settings and change in there as well. | 19:21 |
| djQuery | graft, alt-right brought up some options to be able to resize | 19:21 |
| graft | dwarder: try openbox | 19:21 |
| urlin2u | RyuGuns, you are not in the root with ubuntu like you would be in a windows admin account basically, if that helps, of course unless you run that java in root. | 19:21 |
| MojZ | hi | 19:22 |
| graft | djQuery: hmm, well i know if you do alt-right-click-and-drag, it can be used to resize without having to grab borders, but it might be mapped to alt-middle-click-and-drag | 19:22 |

NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2011-4885. (http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-0830) | 19:58 |

| rick__ | hey friends i installed the program that monitors system temp and a person on here told me to check the bios for the temp readings and compare with the ubuntu system readings to find out witch is witch so i looked in the bios and thier is nothing that tells the temp | 20:03 |
| Guest2187 | No it is slow for UBUNTU and other linux only | 20:03 |

| mangochutney | rick__, yeah, some bioses are lame like that | 20:08 |
| rick__ | mine is very old | 20:08 |
| rick__ | what do i type in to terminal to get readings | 20:08 |
| mangochutney | 13 year old award bioses from 1999 still showed cpu temp | 20:09 |
| zykotick9 | rick__: "sensors" | 20:09 |
| rick__ | mine dont | 20:09 |
| mangochutney | how many temp levels do you have to figure out? | 20:10 |
| rick__ | ok well anyone got any idea how to make sense of what sensor is what | 20:10 |
| trism | gabebug: the cve you mentioned it only from a few days ago, the "fix" for the cve about a month ago introduced it | 20:10 |
| Guest2187 | Any solution for rtl8187 drive for alfa + + ? | 20:11 |
| Guest2187 | Internet is too slow!! | 20:11 |
| rick__ | it just lists temp 1 - 16 and fan rpm | 20:11 |
| mangochutney | rick__, what speed is your cpu chip? | 20:11 |
| rick__ | 1.78 ghz | 20:11 |
| mangochutney | rick__, it's an easy bet then that the highest temp belongs to the cpu chip | 20:11 |

| rick__ | thats what i thought but wasent shure | 20:12 |

| === Imustack is now known as Imustak | ||
| mangochutney | rick__, if you're running your cpu at 99c, you'd better shut down | 20:13 |
| rick__ | no its 67 c | 20:13 |
| rick__ | it says if its 99 its critical | 20:14 |
| mangochutney | rick__, that would be an understatement | 20:14 |
| rick__ | how many ferinhieht is 99 c | 20:14 |
| mangochutney | 212 | 20:14 |

| Trevor69420 | oh effing sweet... my work just gave me 6 Dell 2950 servers | 21:10 |
| konaya_ | :D | 21:10 |
| Slart | bananenkampf-de: I'm not 100% sure but I think they only show icons for the app that they have whitelisted.. ie the apps that are known to work with the new task tray | 21:12 |
| Slart | bananenkampf-de: you can force it to show all icons but it won't be very pretty | 21:12 |
| linxeh | Trevor69420: they going through an upgrade? | 21:13 |
| linxeh | heh OT - sorry | 21:13 |
| graft | yo, when i make my prompt colored it messes up interactive reverse-search, how do i fix it? | 21:14 |
| bananenkampf-de | thanks Slart, i will not force to show all but i will enter an exception for xchat :D | 21:14 |
| Trevor69420 | linxeh yea.. they virtualized all of our clients about a year ago | 21:14 |
| Slart | bananenkampf-de: you're welcome | 21:14 |
| Trevor69420 | so left over hardware | 21:14 |

| mbeierl | rick__, please stop repeating yourself, if no one knows the answer, repeating won't help. So to clarify, the computer goes through the normal shutdown procedure: it asks if you want to shut down and then starts closing windows, displaying the Ubuntu splash and then eventually turns off? | 21:21 |
| mbeierl | rick__, or just it hard stop? | 21:21 |
| yabai | rick__: the r52! That is a beast of a laptop! | 21:22 |
| subichan | hi, this is driving me crazy.. I got ubuntu 11.10, and I don't want mysql daemon to start at every reboot. How can I do it? | 21:22 |
| rick__ | it doesent ask it just immediatly goes to ubuntu splash and shuts off | 21:22 |
| Ben64 | rick__: the battery could be low | 21:22 |
| mbeierl | rick__, so it does show the splash for a few moments? Not just a halt, like complete loss of power? Do the windows close quickly before the splash? | 21:23 |
| rick__ | yabai: why do you think that its not on battry power its pluggede in | 21:23 |
| loko | 999999 | 21:23 |
| juanfer_ | 22222 | 21:23 |
| subichan | it's not inside startup applications, probably because there is nodisplay=true in the relevant .desktop file, but I can't find it in the default directories | 21:23 |
| rick__ | yes they close quickly then splash then darkness | 21:23 |
| subichan | so the question is, where is the .desktop file for mysql daemon in ubuntu 11.10? | 21:24 |
| mbeierl | rick__, has anyone walked you through syslog or X.org.0.log? | 21:24 |
| rick__ | nope what the heck is that | 21:24 |

| Trevor69420 | rick_ thats kinda a personal question... i dont even know how old u are ;-) | 21:30 |
| Trevor69420 | jk | 21:30 |
| Trevor69420 | i think it's a 200amp service | 21:30 |
| Trevor69420 | but the circuit i have in the room is only a 15 amp circuit | 21:30 |
| Trevor69420 | so i'd have to bring another | 21:30 |
| rick__ | what requirements does server need | 21:30 |
| sda1986 | how many bandwidth do you have! maybe it's a bigger problem than amps! | 21:30 |
| Trevor69420 | dunno... havent looked | 21:31 |
| Trevor69420 | why would my bandwidth be an issue? | 21:31 |
| sda1986 | just curiosity! 6 server... | 21:31 |
| Trevor69420 | i'v operated 20 servers on a 1.5mbps line | 21:31 |
| Trevor69420 | T1 lines that businesses use are 1.5MB | 21:32 |
| Trevor69420 | there abouts | 21:32 |
| Trevor69420 | a little less actually cuz of overhead | 21:32 |
| rick__ | how big of line can you get maybee 100 mbs up and down to get the awsome line it would cost 10000dollars just to run it to your house | 21:32 |
| sda1986 | i have 1MB upload and i always complain because it's too slow! :D | 21:32 |
| Trevor69420 | no... 100mbps is only $76 per month | 21:32 |
| mordof | how do i do a tracert? | 21:32 |
| bananenkampf-de | o.O | 21:32 |
| Ben64 | mordof: traceroute | 21:32 |
| Trevor69420 | but i have dynamic bandwidth | 21:33 |
| wingdspur | not for a fiber dedicated bandwidth connection it isnt | 21:33 |
| mordof | really... *sighs* | 21:33 |
| Trevor69420 | which means it's flexible | 21:33 |
| Ben64 | mordof: :) | 21:33 |
| mordof | tried a bunch of different combinations to try and find it, but.. not the most obvious one! blegh | 21:33 |
| Ben64 | mordof: not limited to 8 characters like silly msdos | 21:33 |
| mordof | getting some really bizarre results from a site on my other comp | 21:33 |
| mordof | ah | 21:33 |
| rick__ | to run full throttle it takes 10000 just for install then they bill per what you use | 21:33 |
| sda1986 | anyway where can i found some kernel expert? | 21:34 |
| Trevor69420 | i have verizon business dedicated ethernet line | 21:34 |
| Trevor69420 | i think it goes up to 10gb/s but i never hit it | 21:34 |
| rick__ | then you definatly are at the mercy of servers them selves | 21:34 |
| Trevor69420 | if i run a speedtest right now i get close to 100mbps | 21:34 |
| sda1986 | what kind of server do you have? | 21:35 |
| Trevor69420 | here is my current reading: http://www.speedtest.net/result/1758579877.png | 21:35 |

| Trevor69420 | the servers? | 21:37 |
| Trevor69420 | one i am planning on using as a media server actually to transcode video | 21:37 |
| sda1986 | yep, anyway last offtopic question | 21:37 |
| Trevor69420 | i'll be using ubuntu server | 21:38 |
| Trevor69420 | it has 48GB of RAM, 6x 300GB SAS Drives, 4 core intel XEON cpu | 21:38 |
| bananenkampf-de | Trevor69420 cool! i had one server (hp pro liant) running at home but i turned it off because i didnt need it, thats why i'm asking... | 21:38 |
| Trevor69420 | (i think at 2.6ghz | 21:38 |
| Trevor69420 | i want something that can stream video to all my TVs at once so i can finally dump cable in every room | 21:39 |
| Trevor69420 | i have 9 TVs i want to be able to stream to | 21:39 |
| Trevor69420 | some videos will need to be transcoded on the fly | 21:39 |
| yourfriendisaac | software-center is too slow I much prefer synaptic over software-center but some applications are not available on synaptic. Additionally synaptic allows one to choose all the programs he would like prior to applying them whereas software center does not. It would be nice if the things that make synaptic so versatile and appealing could be added to software-center or synaptic could have the for sale items added as a category to sec | 21:39 |
| yourfriendisaac | tions list. | 21:39 |
| Trevor69420 | i wish i could grid all of the servers together and transcode in a cloud | 21:39 |

| ubottu | The core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages) | 21:41 |
| scarleo | yourfriendisaac, it's just the few paid ones that are missing in synaptic as far as I know, how often do you install them? | 21:41 |

| Oer | pangolin, else sudo apt-get autoremove | 21:44 |
| pangolin | scarleo: how do i list the kernels I have installed? | 21:44 |
| reisio | if it's a server make sure /var/log/ isn't full of errors | 21:44 |
| pangolin | reisio: not a server | 21:44 |
| bananenkampf-de | pangolin, look in /boot/ | 21:44 |
| mbeierl | rick__, are there error messages in /var/log/syslog (or /var/log/messages if prior to 11.11), or in /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old after the shutdown and reboot? | 21:44 |
| scarleo | pangolin, search for the kernel version in synaptic | 21:45 |
| pangolin | bananenkampf-de: thanks :) | 21:45 |
| yourfriendisaac | scarleo, I have never needed the paid programs. I just hate the way software-center works and yest it is the flagship program. Synaptic is just a better program all the way around. It is faster and more convenient. I have disassociated it from .deb files in favor of gdebi and associated apt-url gtk instead of software-center for get deb | 21:45 |
| scarleo | yourfriendisaac, ok, so problem solved, right? | 21:46 |
| rick__ | mbeierl: how do i check for error message | 21:47 |
| scarleo | pangolin, have you installed things in /opt ? Maybe some software you don't need any more? | 21:48 |
| yourfriendisaac | scarlo, yes problem solved for me but I guess the problem is with the defaults in ubuntu do you know if canocal is going to make any big changes to software-center? | 21:48 |
| scarleo | yourfriendisaac, it is a lot faster in 12.04, that's for sure :) | 21:49 |
| bananenkampf-de | or - how another man in #ubuntu-offtopic said - look in /var/ for unneeded files | 21:49 |
| dermaku | helo | 21:49 |
| mbeierl | rick__, in terminal: gedit /var/log/syslog | 21:49 |
| scarleo | yourfriendisaac, features, not so much more, I think | 21:49 |
| mbeierl | rick__, search for "Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=" | 21:50 |
| yourfriendisaac | scarleo, Have your tried 12.04 in virtual box or live? | 21:50 |
| scarleo | yourfriendisaac, live | 21:50 |
| mbeierl | rick__, that will be the start of a new boot sequence. Look for one that has a timestamp close to the last time you experienced a shutdown. Read backwards (towards the top) from there | 21:51 |
| scarleo | yourfriendisaac, oh, no I have it installed on separate partition | 21:51 |
| mbeierl | rick__, phrases that could shed some light are: "segfault" "kernel panic" "oops" | 21:51 |
| yourfriendisaac | scarleo, okay maybe I'll download it and try it out | 21:51 |
| scarleo | yourfriendisaac, it's great, especially changes to Unity | 21:51 |
| mbeierl | rick__, and "oom" - or "out of memory killer" or something like that iirc. | 21:51 |
| rick__ | nothing there | 21:52 |
| yourfriendisaac | scarleo, Yea unity needs options-- what kind of changes? | 21:52 |
| rick__ | its like some remotely clicked it but i didnt see | 21:53 |

| prunk | the side with windows has all my song and media files | 21:57 |
| bananenkampf-de | prunk, you have to say ubuntu that it should mount your windows-partition | 21:58 |
| no1home | yes, then you may want to auto mount it at boot | 21:58 |
| prunk | bananenkampf i don't know if its mounted properly | 21:58 |

| bananenkampf-de | haha, okay :D | 22:04 |
| prunk | so yeah, doesn't look like any of the drives are mounted in fstab | 22:04 |
| bananenkampf-de | so you have to add a new line to your fstab. ubuntu will check this on every reboot and mout your windows-partition like its defined in fstab | 22:04 |

| bananenkampf-de | year! | 22:07 |

| bananenkampf-de | yes | 22:07 |
| prunk | awesome, i'll give that a shot. | 22:07 |
| Oer | lenswipe, it should be possible, i guess. | 22:07 |
| bananenkampf-de | it will be mounted to /media/windows, you can adjust this if you want another place | 22:07 |
| bananenkampf-de | okay :-) tell me if it works (or not) | 22:07 |
| prunk | do i have to update fstab or anything | 22:07 |
| no1home | prunk: might have to create windows directory under /mnt if it's not there already. Or pick another mount point | 22:07 |
| prunk | pardon no1home? | 22:08 |

| prunk | so when i go to filesystem and check under media i have two drive names there | 22:11 |
| rubst3r | hey rick, never mind i think i know what the problem might be... installing intel version on a AMD lol!!! just figured out | 22:11 |
| prunk | they are called Major Drive and SYSTEM RESERVERED | 22:11 |
| prunk | the Major Drive is the drive I have all my media and windows stuff on | 22:11 |
| rick__ | an intel version on amd ??? | 22:11 |
| prunk | so would I change /media/windows to /media/Major Drive | 22:12 |
| rick__ | do explain | 22:12 |
| bananenkampf-de | you can do if you want :) but be carefull with the space in Major Drive | 22:12 |
| bananenkampf-de | in fstab you have to mark this with another symbol... its easier to use "MajorDrive" without the space | 22:13 |
| rubst3r | yes i download xubuntu from the official site but i download the version that says PC (Intel x86) desktop CD instead of 64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop CD could that be the problem??? | 22:13 |
| prunk | ha... okay that sounds... not certain. | 22:13 |
| bananenkampf-de | :P | 22:13 |
| prunk | ahh balls... so i would have to rename the drive first | 22:13 |
| h00k | rubst3r: AMD64 is just 64bit, the other version is 32bit, and AMD64 runs on Intel 64bit processors as well | 22:13 |
| bananenkampf-de | no | 22:13 |
| bananenkampf-de | no ;) | 22:13 |
| prunk | ... | 22:13 |
| prunk | you're messing with me bananenkampf | 22:14 |
| bananenkampf-de | you dont use the name of the drive to mount it. you select the device with the device-file /dev/sda2 . The folder /media/windows or /media/MajorDrive is the point where you will find the files from this partition in linux you can name it whatever you like :D | 22:14 |
| prunk | ahhh i see | 22:15 |
| rubst3r | ok let me try something, i'll brb | 22:15 |
| prunk | so by putting in the line /dev/sda2 /media/MajorDrive ntfs defaults I am telling fstab to mount drive /dev/sda2 and call it /media/MajorDrive? | 22:16 |
| bananenkampf-de | yes, but its not names "/media/MajorDrive", its mounted in the device /media/MajorDrive :) | 22:17 |
| bananenkampf-de | *named | 22:17 |
| prunk | gotcha. okay thanks! | 22:17 |
| bananenkampf-de | you're welcome :) give it a try and tell me about :P | 22:17 |
| auronandace | prunk: don't forget to create the mountpoint if it doesn't already exist | 22:18 |
| auronandace | he left | 22:18 |
| tiox | Hi. I am trying to install a package for software I know works, but apt-get is being fussy. After I use --force-depends with dpkg, apt-get only wants me to remove the offending package. | 22:18 |
| no1home | also If you want read/write access you need to use ntfs-3g I believe? | 22:18 |
| no1home | ah he probably just rebooted | 22:19 |
| bananenkampf-de | isn't the ntfs-driver shipped with ubuntu? | 22:19 |
| tiox | Is there a command for dpkg that tells apt-get to forget about the dependency issue and forget about it? | 22:19 |
| Oer | tiox, what package and how do you install this ? | 22:19 |
| tiox | Well, it's ZSNES from Debian's repository, 64-bit. It said ia32-libs is not satisfiable, except, it's a newer version, I ran zsnes, and it works. | 22:20 |
| tiox | I mean, it runs without crashing. | 22:20 |
| mbeierl | rick__, so what are the messages in /var/log/syslog prior to the start of the boot sequence? Can you pastebin the file? (see pastebinit) | 22:20 |
| auronandace | tiox: never mix debian and ubuntu repos | 22:20 |
| tiox | No no, it's a separate package. | 22:20 |
| tiox | Got it from pkgs.org | 22:21 |
| StFS | Hello. I'm trying to see if there is a way to install a complete linux setup on a USB stick... so like a LiveCD (or LiveUSB) but with everything (including /etc files) editable | 22:21 |
| tiox | I'm not installing from repository. I am using dpkg to install a single instance of a package. | 22:21 |
| omar | hello guys | 22:21 |
| omar | how are you ? | 22:21 |
| prunk | hey bananenkampf? | 22:21 |
| bananenkampf-de | hey | 22:22 |
| prunk | hey | 22:22 |
| omar | hey | 22:22 |
| omar | how r u ? | 22:22 |
| prunk | so it autmounted my ubuntu drive | 22:22 |
| bananenkampf-de | lol | 22:22 |
| auronandace | StFS: yes, just choose the usb stick's partition at install (just like a normal harddrive install) | 22:22 |
| prunk | somehow I guess I got that wrong... | 22:22 |
| tiox | So what is it I need to fill in the blank with so that apt-get shuts its yap about the package? sudo dpkg __________ -i <packagename> | 22:22 |
| bananenkampf-de | so /dev/sda2 is not your window-partition | 22:22 |
| tiox | I used --force-depends but apt-get only wants to uninstall it. | 22:22 |
| prunk | so i missed essentiall | 22:22 |
| prunk | yeah it's my ubuntu partition | 22:23 |
| bananenkampf-de | check with fdisk -l | 22:23 |

| Guest33231 | backtrack ftw | 22:23 |
| Gentoo64 | tiox: zsnes is 32 bit only... | 22:23 |
| tiox | But there's a 64-bit package for it. | 22:23 |
| omar | ?? | 22:23 |
| Gentoo64 | tiox: its written in x86 asembly tho | 22:23 |
| TheExplorer | On Virtual Machines: Does anyone know if theres any difference in resources when running a 32bit vs 64bit guest on a 64bit host. Will it be easier for the VM to do a 32 or does it not matter | 22:24 |
| tiox | I force-depend it and it works. ia32-libs is satisfiable, just too new. | 22:24 |
| bananenkampf-de | and prunk? | 22:24 |
| Oer | tiox are you on 12.04 or 11.10 ? | 22:24 |
| prunk | uhhhh.. weird. you just put fdisk-l in terminal right? | 22:24 |
| tiox | 11.10 | 22:24 |
| zykotick9 | TheExplorer: unless your assigning more the 4GB to the VM, i'd stick to 32bit. There might be some situations where 64bit would be better, but very few. | 22:25 |
| bananenkampf-de | sudo fdisk -l | 22:25 |
| prunk | gah | 22:25 |
| bananenkampf-de | without sudo you will dont see anything :D | 22:25 |
| prunk | ha yeah | 22:25 |
| prunk | that was the weird thing. i always forget to sudo things. | 22:25 |
| omar | guys im talking here ? | 22:25 |
| bananenkampf-de | haha | 22:25 |
| prunk | okay so i see sda1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 | 22:25 |
| w30 | /part | 22:25 |
| Gentoo64 | omar: this isnt backtrack channel though | 22:26 |
| tiox | I want apt-get to ignore the unresolvable dependency. What must I tell dpkg for apt-get to not want to remove it? | 22:26 |
| no1home | omar: just ask your question | 22:26 |
| TheExplorer | TO: <zykotick9> Thankyou | 22:26 |
| tiox | (And allow me to install other packages, at that.) | 22:26 |
| prunk | does that mean i have 5 partitions or are some of them not real? | 22:26 |
| bananenkampf-de | okay prunk, look for the device with the windows-filesystem :) | 22:26 |
| bananenkampf-de | you have got 5 partitions :) 4 primary and 1 logical | 22:26 |
| prunk | that's weird. i should only have two partitions. | 22:27 |
| prunk | i mean 2 primary and the 1 logical | 22:27 |
| bananenkampf-de | maybe some hidden from the manufacturer? | 22:27 |
| bananenkampf-de | with windows-recovery? | 22:27 |
| no1home | one is probably a swap partition | 22:27 |
| prunk | so under the system tab i have unknown, hpfs/ntfs, hpfs/ntfs, extended and linux | 22:27 |
| ssta | prunk: logical is usually two partitions...one for the placeholder and one for the actual partition | 22:28 |

| tiox | Because it... | 22:30 |

| tiox | I found a 64-bit build of zsnes for Debian, I wanna install it, and I want apt-get to not make me use 0f to remove it. | 22:30 |
| prunk | well the one with ubuntu on it is obvious | 22:31 |
| tiox | -f* | 22:31 |
| prunk | its the one with the linux system | 22:31 |
| Gentoo64 | tiox: yeah,. weird | 22:31 |
| gabriel | i need some help .after installed ubuntu on my old dell latitude laptop,the fan stop working | 22:31 |
| bananenkampf-de | with ntfs? | 22:31 |
| prunk | and the windows one is a larger partition and the only one with a larger partition is sda3 | 22:31 |
| prunk | so the two ntfs partitions are the windows and windows recovery. don't know what extended is and don't know what unknown systems are but i have found the windows one and it is sda3 | 22:32 |
| zykotick9 | tiox: installing debian packages on ubuntu isn't the greatest idea, and I'm surpised you found a 64bit version of zsnes, as it's certainly no longer in debian | 22:32 |
| bananenkampf-de | okay :) than you have to replace the line in fstab from /dev/sda2 to /dev/sda3 | 22:32 |
| prunk | done | 22:33 |

| amitkeret | anyone know where I can look for lm-sensors config file for gigabyte m/b? can't find my model in the official lm-sensors wesite | 23:12 |
| diggdeep | Hi, I use ubuntu with kernel 3.0.0-15. When it is used, it becomes black screen. 3.0.0-14 is fine | 23:13 |
| invisiblek | amitkeret, you might have success with a different board that uses the same chipset | 23:13 |
| invisiblek | diggdeep, did you install some sort of proprietary graphics driver when you were running .14? | 23:13 |
| xylia | does anyone know the right mount options to access the files on a microsoft udf-formatted install dvd? | 23:13 |
| invisiblek | mount -t iso9660 | 23:13 |
| invisiblek | (most likely) | 23:14 |
| amitkeret | is there a way to find in the BIOS, which value corresponds to which label in ln-sensors? I have in0-in8, but only 4 voltage readings in bIOS... | 23:14 |
| diggdeep | @invisiblelek, I installed ati proprietary driver | 23:14 |
| xylia | invisiblek, that just gets one file saying you need to access the real contents by udf filesystem | 23:14 |
| diggdeep | should I use fglrx in synpatic? | 23:14 |
| invisiblek | diggdeep, my guess is you'll need to do the same on the .15, it will build against your current kernel | 23:14 |

| invisiblek | Tgirl, reinstall | 23:15 |

| Oer | picasso, see man apt-get > use the -q option *quiet ( carefull with -qq !!!) | 23:16 |
| invisiblek | Tgirl, put a disc in your cd drive and boot to it? | 23:16 |

| Tgirl | never came with a disk | 23:17 |

| amitkeret | invisiblek, on the same matter: do you know how to get radeon GPU to be detected by sensors? | 23:17 |
| invisiblek | thats 9.10 | 23:17 |
| invisiblek | amitkeret, my first guess would be to install the proprietary graphics from ati. although i've never really dealt with ati and linux | 23:18 |
| Mathuin | picasso: Some variant of "echo y | command-that-generates-prompt" may work. | 23:18 |
| Tgirl | i got a ubuntu computer and that is what i whant to know do i have to pay for it | 23:19 |
| invisiblek | Tgirl, no, ubuntu is and always will be free | 23:19 |
| amitkeret | I've already installed it, the card is working fine. when I use "aticonfig" I even get a temperature reading... just can't seem to make the system sensors pick up on it... ideas, anyone? | 23:19 |
| Ben64 | amitkeret: the driver probably doesn't give the info the way sensors likes | 23:20 |

| picasso | Oer: -q is actually what i needed, moreso than -y. fingers crossed, seems to be working | 23:21 |
| picasso | thanks | 23:21 |
| no1home | picasso: you may want to look at the unattended-upgrades package | 23:21 |
| truepurple | My video is out of sync with the audio for a commercial DVD I am trying to play on mplayer, anyone have a suggestion on how to get them in sync? | 23:22 |
| picasso | no1home: i'm not trying to do automatic updates, rather setting up provisioning scripts for use with Vagrant (vagrantup.com) | 23:22 |
| Oer | picasso, have fun | 23:22 |
| picasso | ack. -q still gives me GRUB prompt. | 23:22 |

| Roxy` | I am having trouble with my wifi card on ubuntu 10.04 | 23:24 |
| Roxy` | I've tried installing bcmwl-kernel-source | 23:24 |
| fishcooker | roxy, mad-wifi | 23:25 |
| fishcooker | :D | 23:25 |
| vorlov | hello | 23:25 |
| fishcooker | hello vorlov | 23:25 |
| fishcooker | morning here :p | 23:25 |
| Roxy` | fishcooker: what good will that do? | 23:25 |
| fishcooker | installing from source :p | 23:25 |
| fishcooker | n actually will works | 23:25 |
| Vimes | hello | 23:26 |
| vorlov | would anyone know why on an ec2 t1.micro instance a script of mine (based on node.js) causes the kernel to go apesh*t .... starts complaining about | 23:26 |
| vorlov | Pid: 485, comm: node Not tainted 2.6.38-11-virtual #50-Ubuntu | 23:26 |
| vorlov | and finally after driving the load avg to 7.00 it says its a recursive fault and a reboot is needed | 23:27 |
| rick__ | i have a ibm r52 laptop with centrino 1.78 ghz processor and 1.5 gb ram running ubuntu 11.10 it likes to shut down as if i clicked the shutdown button the lm sensors look normal and the power button is not stuck | 23:29 |
| bear1007 | hey hi every1 | 23:29 |
| picasso | crap. even "sudo apt-get upgrade -qq -y" has an interactive GRUB menu | 23:29 |
| picasso | that seems like a bug, right? | 23:29 |
| sp4z | my mail server was attacked last night anybody know how to set iptables or ufw to log source ip's on a port as i can't see any ip's logged from the saslauthd | 23:30 |
| javier_ | Hi! I think I have a hardware problem in my laptop. it took 20 minutes to boot up. I have no idea how can I check what's wrong. At this moment, when it's already running ubuntu, it seems to be work normally, but sometimes it slows down for some minutes and recover normal speed after a while. Any ideas? Thanks! | 23:30 |
| rick__ | i have a ibm r52 laptop with centrino 1.78 ghz processor and 1.5 gb ram running ubuntu 11.10 it likes to shut down as if i clicked the shutdown button the lm sensors look normal and the power button is not stuck | 23:30 |
| bear1007 | hi | 23:30 |
| Roxy` | fishcooker: The problem here is I don't have the driver. | 23:31 |
| Roxy` | fishcooker: iwconfig won't report nothing back, so that's a rather useless solution. But thanks anyways. | 23:32 |
| Roxy` | Anyone knows how to get the wifi working for netbooks? HP 110? | 23:32 |
| rick__ | Roxy`: what os | 23:32 |
| Roxy` | rick__: Ubuntu 10.04 | 23:33 |
| tiox | Roxy`: You mean, using a hard line to the internet and the Additional Drivers dialog didn't work? | 23:33 |
| Roxy` | tiox: A hardline works, but wifi doesn't. | 23:33 |
| rick__ | Roxy`: what is it doing please explain what exactly is happening | 23:33 |
| tiox | Or, even an alternative connection like a 3G dongle, or your cellphone if you can connect to that to download drivers. | 23:34 |
| tiox | Hmmm, out of my league then sadly. :( | 23:34 |
| finish06 | how do you open a media file via terminal to play in VLC? | 23:34 |
| tiox | VLC is unsupported software. | 23:34 |
| Roxy` | rick__: When I put in "iwconfig" it reports back "no wireless extensions" on both lo and eth0 | 23:35 |
| tiox | But to briefly answer your question, should be vlc <filename> | 23:35 |
| tiox | If not, refer to your help documentation finish06 | 23:35 |
| SoulShadow | anyone know of a RDP client better than Remmina | 23:35 |
| Roxy` | rick__: Also when I go for the wireless icon at the top, it only shows options for hardwired no wifi | 23:35 |
| SoulShadow | or one that's been updated within the last year | 23:35 |
| finish06 | THANKS!!! | 23:36 |
| tiox | -_- | 23:36 |
| rick__ | what was changed since last time it worked | 23:36 |
| tiox | Roxy`: So you seriously have nothingfrom additional drivers about restricted drivers to install that are compatible with your network interface card? | 23:36 |
| _skpl | does anyone know how long com[piling a kernel should tale? | 23:37 |
| Roxy` | tiox: Not at all I've even done an "sudo apt-get update" and nothing happens at all for restricted drivers | 23:37 |
| _skpl | does anyone know how long com[piling a kernel should take? | 23:38 |
| javier_ | someone can asses me how to check a hardware problem? I suspect about the ram memory, because it's very slow everytime I start something and took 20 minutes booting up... | 23:38 |
| Roxy` | Where can I find the proper drivers? | 23:39 |
| iceroot | javier_: memtest | 23:39 |
| Mathuin | Huh. How do I boot without going into X these days? Inittab is no longer the way the cool kids do things. | 23:40 |
| iceroot | javier_: should be part of any ubuntu-live-cd. start the cd and choose memtet | 23:40 |
| iceroot | !nox | Mathuin | 23:40 |
| ubottu | Mathuin: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 23:40 |
| Roxy` | Where can I find the proper wireless drivers for HP 110 netbooks? | 23:41 |
| Mathuin | iceroot: sweet. thanks. | 23:41 |
| nils_ | I don't see anything about text-only mode on that page? | 23:42 |
| Roxy` | Where can I find the proper wireless drivers for HP 110 netbooks? | 23:42 |
| rick__ | this os is getting more screwed by the minute i can feel it | 23:43 |
| Mathuin | nils_: me neither, I suspect the bot is behind the curve on wiki updates. | 23:43 |
| dragonfly | Roxy`, do you know what the proper drivers "are"? | 23:43 |
| tiox | rick__: I get that feeling every day... | 23:43 |
| tiox | dragonfly: I was going to suggest she looks into installing hardinfo for a hardware list GUI, but it might be better for her to just go to terminal and type in sudo lshw | 23:44 |
| rick__ | its pitifull how many times i got to reinstall it | 23:44 |
| javier_ | iceroot, can I run memtest from normal installed ubuntu? | 23:44 |
| tiox | I think if she does sudo lshw > ~/<somename>.txt it'll spit out a txt file, not sure. | 23:44 |
| dragonfly | I'll check google for her | 23:44 |
| tiox | Otherwise, to copy from terminal, control+shift+c | 23:45 |
| iceroot | javier_: imo yes but the results are not the same | 23:45 |
| Roxy` | dragonfly: HP 110-3735DX might be broadcom, thats my best guess. | 23:45 |
| iceroot | javier_: because the system is already running and some of the ram is used | 23:45 |
| javier_ | ok | 23:45 |
| rick__ | Roxy`: you get anser | 23:45 |
| javier_ | iceroot, so, i should restart and run from livecd, and run the program. If you can asses me a bit about what will I find and what to do before I run it, it will be a big help | 23:46 |
| iceroot | javier_: normally the ubuntu-cd will start and will offer you "install, live-system, memtest" | 23:47 |
| iceroot | javier_: but i started my last ubuntu cd years ago so i am not sure if we still have the memtest on it | 23:47 |
| dragonfly | Roxy`, just found this on a thread: try sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source | 23:47 |
| rick__ | i have a ibm r52 laptop with centrino 1.78 ghz processor and 1.5 gb ram running ubuntu 11.10 it likes to shut down as if i clicked the shutdown button the lm sensors look normal and the power button is not stuck | 23:47 |
| dragonfly | alo, you need to enable the restricted extras in the sources | 23:48 |
| dragonfly | *also | 23:48 |
| javier_ | iceroot, i don't think you get that option just booting it, only options to try and install ubuntu. Don't know if i would have to run the program from terminal after booting in "try ubuntu" option | 23:48 |
| diverdude | Anybody know where to get a nice set of close/minimize/maximize/restore window icon buttons? | 23:49 |
| === Knorre is now known as Knorre`BNC | ||
| diverdude | Where can i find ubuntu icons? | 23:49 |
| javier_ | iceroot, and will that program fix the problem it there is? or just detect it? | 23:50 |
| iceroot | javier_: just detect | 23:50 |
| cfhowlett | diverdude: gnomelook.org | 23:50 |
| cfhowlett | diverdude: or http://ubuntu-art.org/index.php?xcontentmode=8125 | 23:50 |
| iceroot | javier_: i know that "systemrescue disc" has this very usefull tool at start | 23:50 |
| iceroot | javier_: its always a good idea to run a memtest from a boot-cd to see if the hardware is fine | 23:51 |
| javier_ | iceroot, but I guess i can boot ubuntu cd and install the program there | 23:51 |
| iceroot | javier_: but then memtest cant reach the whole memory | 23:51 |
| javier_ | iceroot, memtest will test just ram memory, won't it? | 23:51 |
| iceroot | javier_: because of that you use memtest directly from the cd | 23:51 |
| iceroot | javier_: correct | 23:51 |
| iceroot | javier_: and some cpu-errors will also be visible (e.g. overclocking issues) | 23:52 |
| diverdude | cfhowlett, its not there | 23:52 |
| Roxy` | dragonfly: I did that apt-get bcmw thing earlier. | 23:52 |
| javier_ | iceroot, but I meant installing memtest in ubuntu live USB, which is very practical for this kind of things | 23:52 |
| cfhowlett | diverdude: http://ubuntu-art.org/index.php?xcontentmode=8125 | 23:52 |
| Roxy` | dragonfly: and afterwards I reinstalled it and it still didn't work. | 23:52 |
| iceroot | javier_: normally memtest should be in the ubuntu-isos | 23:53 |
| FrozenFire | I need to configure my WAN-facing interface on my server to override the nameserver configuration that is provided by DHCP. How do I go about doing this? dhclient.conf is quite confusing. | 23:53 |
| diverdude | cfhowlett, no its not there i say | 23:53 |
| dragonfly | Roxy`, and you enabled the multiverse and other repositories? | 23:53 |
| Roxy` | dragonfly: Yep, all where checked. No result. | 23:56 |
| thetinyjesus | does anyone have an ios 5 fix for syncing yet? | 23:56 |
| iceroot | thetinyjesus: we dont support ios | 23:57 |
| holstein | thetinyjesus: ?.. maybe applw | 23:57 |
| holstein | apple* | 23:57 |
| thetinyjesus | i need ubuntu syncing not windows | 23:57 |
| iceroot | !iphone | thetinyjesus | 23:57 |
| ubottu | thetinyjesus: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod | 23:57 |
| thetinyjesus | i can get it mounted and everything | 23:57 |
| holstein | thetinyjesus: maybe apple will "fix" it | 23:57 |
| thetinyjesus | holstein: funny | 23:58 |
| iceroot | thetinyjesus: the easiest fix is dont use apple-products with there itunes-stuff | 23:58 |
| thetinyjesus | iceroot: doesn't help when i have an iphone that i love an i haven't had a android i liked | 23:58 |
| iceroot | thetinyjesus: and we dont support iphones here | 23:58 |
| iceroot | thetinyjesus: the text from ubottu is all i can give you | 23:58 |
| cfhowlett | diverdude: http://imagebin.org/197830 | 23:59 |
| Roxy` | hrmm | 23:59 |
| iceroot | thetinyjesus: there are reasons why apple-stuff is evil and you are facing one of them | 23:59 |
| thetinyjesus | iceroot: iceroot do you not support apple because its a pain to get it work with linux or because you're android fnas | 23:59 |
