johnny77 | I'm having trouble making a Ubuntu USB install. The Checksum is right; Using Unetbootin; Testing with two computers; both see flash drive and contents when booted; both give me a Missing Operating System error when booting. | 00:13 |

jalcine | johnny77: did you install the MBR? | 00:15 |
johnny77 | jalcine: not sure. I assumed that Unetbootin installed what I needed to boot from the USB drive. | 00:16 |
johnny77 | jalcine: that is what it is supposed to do right? | 00:16 |
jalcine | tbh, I thought it only downloaded the ISO onto a medium. | 00:16 |
jalcine | I don't know about adding the bootloader. | 00:16 |
Unit193 | unetbooting *should* have taken care of that, yes. | 00:17 |
johnny77 | How do I check? | 00:17 |

Culiforge | I got an error while installing a package... sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)... how do I go about finding out meaning, cause, and solution? | 00:46 |
mysteriousdarren | Culiforge: what was the error code? | 01:13 |
Culiforge | mysteriousdarren: that was all.. now that I've done some googling and poking around.. I'm getting subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 255 | 01:14 |
Culiforge | mysteriousdarren: looking at a help blog now that suggests 'dpkg --force all --remove' not sure what it does but it doesn't sound prudent.... | 01:16 |
Culiforge | mysteriousdarren: here's full output http://paste.ubuntu.com/872380/ | 01:22 |

zeech | Hi, I have a question: I have an ntfs drive for data in my xubuntu PC. It "just works", however I have to access it first to mount it. How do I mount it automatically? One way is to edit my fstab, but that seems to result in something different from the GUI method. | 07:27 |
scriptwarlock | automount the windows drive? | 07:33 |
zeech | yes, that is what I want to do. | 07:33 |
scriptwarlock | zeech, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions | 07:34 |
zeech | ah, thanks scriptwarlock | 07:36 |

ScG^Dedicated | anyone here that could help me with a problem that I have in AppArmor in Ubuntu 12.04? | 16:56 |
IAmNotThatGuy | ScG^Dedicated, Kindly explain about it. however, I would prefer suggesting you to ask in #ubuntu+1 | 16:59 |
ScG^Dedicated | Then I shall inform there :) | 16:59 |
IAmNotThatGuy | ScG^Dedicated, Do not ask to ask questions. Just ask them =] see the topic here =] | 17:02 |
ScG^Dedicated | roger :) | 17:03 |
ScG^Dedicated | IAmNotThatGuy: mind to help me since it seems no one else is able to help me :) | 18:09 |
ScG^Dedicated | in 12.04 I added a Firefox profile in AppArmor (completely default I only created it) and now my Firefox does not load anymore. Anyone that could help me with that? :) | 18:09 |
ScG^Dedicated | ohh it didn't paste everything lol | 18:10 |
ScG^Dedicated | in 12.04 I added a Firefox profile in AppArmor (completely default I only created it) and now my Firefox does not load anymore. Anyone that could help me with that? :) | 18:10 |
holstein | ScG^Dedicated: i would remove the firefox config from /home ... you can also create another user and test | 18:12 |
ScG^Dedicated | well I want to have a firefox profile | 18:14 |
ScG^Dedicated | it's just that even with a default profile it does not seem to work | 18:15 |
ScG^Dedicated | while it should of course :) | 18:15 |
holstein | ScG^Dedicated: cool.. how did it work when you removed the config? | 18:15 |
ScG^Dedicated | I haven't removed it yet | 18:15 |
ScG^Dedicated | but before I made the profile everything was working fine | 18:15 |
holstein | OK.. well, let me know when you remove that, and test running firefox, and we can go from there | 18:15 |
ScG^Dedicated | alright | 18:16 |
Sidewinder1 | ScG^Dedicated, I believe that a new FF profile is automatically created, each time FF loads if there is not one already; but I may be incorrect in that assumption. | 18:16 |
ScG^Dedicated | I need two things: #1 music # I need to look up how to remove it so brb ^^ | 18:16 |
ScG^Dedicated | Sidewinder1: is that since 12.04? Since I did read something about a Firefox profile already been made by 12.04 as default so I might have two firefox profiles now | 18:17 |
Sidewinder1 | ScG^Dedicated, I know nothing of 12.04; I'm an LTS person. But what I stated earlier is, I believe, a Firefox thing.. Not sure though | 18:19 |
ScG^Dedicated | holstein: I'm sorry but I cannot find the right way to remove the profile | 18:33 |
ScG^Dedicated | it says a long command with profile.name (as example) but if I use firefox.sh nothing happens or it cannot find the file | 18:33 |
holstein | ScG^Dedicated: you can also make a user account temporarily | 18:34 |
ScG^Dedicated | a new ubuntu user account? | 18:34 |
holstein | in your home directory, there will be a .firefox or .mozilla | 18:35 |
holstein | you just rename that to *.backup or whatever | 18:35 |
ScG^Dedicated | I called it .mozillabackup | 18:36 |
ScG^Dedicated | tried to boot firefox but still not booting | 18:37 |
holstein | ScG^Dedicated: are you up to date with backups? | 18:37 |
holstein | open a terminal and run firefox from there, and see what messages happen | 18:37 |
ScG^Dedicated | it's a VM where I am trying out Ubuntu on so I have no backups because if I get everything the way I want it I will then remove the VM and make a dual boot with Ubuntu as main OS | 18:38 |
ScG^Dedicated | /usr/bin/firefox: 1: /user/bin/firefox: which: Permission denied | 18:41 |
holstein | im talking about system updates | 18:41 |
holstein | using the update manger, or whatever | 18:41 |
ScG^Dedicated | nope updating now :) | 18:42 |
holstein | i would just install it on metal, and go for it | 18:42 |
ScG^Dedicated | on metal? | 18:42 |
holstein | migrating thta install from VM to metal is *not* all that trivial anyways | 18:42 |
ScG^Dedicated | lol | 18:42 |
holstein | ScG^Dedicated: on the hardware, not in VM | 18:42 |
ScG^Dedicated | well I am new to linux and I want to set up ufw, apparmor, snort, hids, rkhunter, chkrootkit, noscript and safer default settings like no ipv6 and also truecrypt | 18:44 |
ScG^Dedicated | VM is perfect to try all of that | 18:44 |
holstein | you can do that where ever you like | 18:44 |
holstein | im just saying, what are you going to do to move that out of VM to the hardware? | 18:44 |
ScG^Dedicated | well yes but if I mess it up I have to reïnstall again | 18:44 |
ScG^Dedicated | I am not going to transfer it, I will do it all over again | 18:45 |
holstein | for me, it takes about 8 or so minutes to reinstall... | 18:45 |
ScG^Dedicated | whow 8 mins | 18:45 |
ScG^Dedicated | that's fast | 18:45 |
holstein | you *should* figure out what you have dont to break FF though | 18:45 |
holstein | what i suggest is... open a terminal and launch the application firefox from the terminal | 18:45 |
ScG^Dedicated | I tried | 18:45 |
holstein | you'll get error output | 18:45 |
ScG^Dedicated | I typed what I got | 18:45 |
holstein | ScG^Dedicated: thats not how i read it | 18:45 |
holstein | ScG^Dedicated: open a terminal ... type fire and then hit tab | 18:46 |
ScG^Dedicated | /usr/bin/firefox: 1: /user/bin/firefox: which: Permission denied | 18:46 |
ScG^Dedicated | ok | 18:46 |
ScG^Dedicated | same as what I posted earlier | 18:46 |
ScG^Dedicated | permission denied | 18:46 |
holstein | so, you've messed up your user permissions somehow | 18:47 |
holstein | not sure, but you could trace back through what all you have done and "undo" it | 18:47 |
holstein | OR, just reinstall, and come here *before* doing *anything* | 18:47 |
ScG^Dedicated | apparmor can change user permissions? | 18:47 |
ScG^Dedicated | hehe | 18:47 |
Unit193 | You could try to purge and reinstall firefox, but why do you need AppArmor? | 18:49 |
Unit193 | Also, 1204 is beta at best, so may not have that working yet. | 18:50 |
ScG^Dedicated | I am following the security stickies on the ubuntu forum | 18:50 |
ScG^Dedicated | if you can be safer then safe with just a few adjustions why not? :) | 18:51 |
Unit193 | If it causes more problems than it solves, why? But anywho, you could try that, or temp disable apparmor and see if that fixes | 18:51 |
frankv01 | It appears that according to the wiki I've missed the ubuntu beginners team meeting that was / is currently listed on the wiki? is that right? | 18:52 |
Unit193 | frankv01: That would be correct, except I don't think there was one since everyone missed it. :P | 18:53 |
ScG^Dedicated | lol | 18:54 |
Unit193 | ScG^Dedicated: You could ask about it in #ubuntu+1, and if apparmor is working in general, just remember to add alll details if you do go for that option. | 18:54 |
frankv01 | ha, ok -- at least I'm not alone. How often are those held. I really meant to attend that. | 18:54 |
Unit193 | I also missed it. :P | 18:54 |
Unit193 | About once a month. | 18:54 |
frankv01 | k, I'll keep an eye out. Thanks. | 18:55 |
Unit193 | frankv01: Should be in the topic of the team channel. | 18:55 |
frankv01 | I noticed that. | 18:57 |
ScG^Dedicated | holstein and Unit193: I've fixed the Firefox problem by disabling the Firefox profiles, sad thing is that I have no idea why adding the profile messed everything up | 19:04 |
Unit193 | Firefox isn't as easy to setup in AppArmor as other programs. | 19:05 |
ScG^Dedicated | well I see AppArmor as pretty advanced stuff anyway :) | 19:06 |
ScG^Dedicated | I might check out SeLinux too to see if it's any easier | 19:07 |
hobgoblin | ScG^Dedicated: you seen this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1008906 | 19:10 |
ScG^Dedicated | yes | 19:10 |
ScG^Dedicated | that is what I used | 19:10 |
ScG^Dedicated | create firefox profile | 19:10 |
ScG^Dedicated | boom | 19:10 |
ScG^Dedicated | xD | 19:10 |
hobgoblin | bodhi_zazen is the guy to talk to when he's about and got time | 19:11 |
ScG^Dedicated | I did: sudo genprof firefox and since then it stopped working | 19:11 |
ScG^Dedicated | This will generate a "basic" profile for Firefox and place it into complain mode. You will be able to run Firefox and any violations of the profile will be logged. | 19:12 |
ScG^Dedicated | well that did not work for me :P | 19:12 |
ScG^Dedicated | bodhi_zazen you here by any chance? | 19:56 |
