[00:13] 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. === jalcine is now known as JackyAlcine_ === JackyAlcine_ is now known as jalcine [00:15] johnny77: did you install the MBR? [00:16] jalcine: not sure. I assumed that Unetbootin installed what I needed to boot from the USB drive. [00:16] jalcine: that is what it is supposed to do right? [00:16] tbh, I thought it only downloaded the ISO onto a medium. [00:16] I don't know about adding the bootloader. [00:17] unetbooting *should* have taken care of that, yes. [00:17] How do I check? === jalcine is now known as JackyAlcine_ [00:46] 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? [01:13] Culiforge: what was the error code? [01:14] 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 [01:16] mysteriousdarren: looking at a help blog now that suggests 'dpkg --force all --remove' not sure what it does but it doesn't sound prudent.... [01:22] mysteriousdarren: here's full output http://paste.ubuntu.com/872380/ === webjadmin is now known as JackyAlcine_ [01:38] Culiforge: I am trying to figure it out...try #ubuntu to get more answers as well. [01:40] mysteriousdarren: I installed same package on 11.10 with no problems.. this package installing on 10.04 (which it was originally written for) [01:41] mysteriousdarren: ... if that helps any === JackyAlcine_ is now known as webjadmin === webjadmin is now known as jalcine [02:14] I still can't figure it out try #ubuntu [02:17] mysteriousdarren: righto, thanks for looking into it.. i'm off to bed.. work tomorrow.. twisted back can't sit at computer any longer.. arrrrrghhhh. nite all! === Culiforge is now known as cul_honk-shuu [02:24] nite! === jalcine is now known as JackyAlcine_ === JackyAlcine_ is now known as jalcine [07:27] 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. [07:33] automount the windows drive? [07:33] yes, that is what I want to do. [07:34] zeech, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions [07:36] ah, thanks scriptwarlock [12:12] hey there! I need Ubuntu-Users to test a new software ;) who wants to? === jalcine_ is now known as jalcine === jalcine is now known as JackyAlcine_ === JackyAlcine_ is now known as jalcine === jalcine_ is now known as JackyAlcine_ === JackyAlcine_ is now known as webjadmin === webjadmin is now known as JackyAlcine === JackyAlcine is now known as jalcine_ === jalcine_ is now known as jalcine [16:11] wb Snicksie [16:11] tx === M0hi is now known as IAmNotThatGuy === jalcine is now known as JackyAlcine_ === JackyAlcine_ is now known as jalcine [16:56] anyone here that could help me with a problem that I have in AppArmor in Ubuntu 12.04? [16:59] ScG^Dedicated, Kindly explain about it. however, I would prefer suggesting you to ask in #ubuntu+1 [16:59] Then I shall inform there :) [17:02] ScG^Dedicated, Do not ask to ask questions. Just ask them =] see the topic here =] [17:03] roger :) [18:09] IAmNotThatGuy: mind to help me since it seems no one else is able to help me :) [18:09] 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] ohh it didn't paste everything lol [18:10] 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? :) [18:12] ScG^Dedicated: i would remove the firefox config from /home ... you can also create another user and test [18:14] well I want to have a firefox profile [18:15] it's just that even with a default profile it does not seem to work [18:15] while it should of course :) [18:15] ScG^Dedicated: cool.. how did it work when you removed the config? [18:15] I haven't removed it yet [18:15] but before I made the profile everything was working fine [18:15] OK.. well, let me know when you remove that, and test running firefox, and we can go from there [18:16] alright [18:16] 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] I need two things: #1 music # I need to look up how to remove it so brb ^^ [18:17] 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 [18:19] 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 [18:33] holstein: I'm sorry but I cannot find the right way to remove the profile [18:33] it says a long command with profile.name (as example) but if I use firefox.sh nothing happens or it cannot find the file [18:34] ScG^Dedicated: you can also make a user account temporarily [18:34] a new ubuntu user account? [18:35] in your home directory, there will be a .firefox or .mozilla [18:35] you just rename that to *.backup or whatever [18:36] I called it .mozillabackup [18:37] tried to boot firefox but still not booting [18:37] ScG^Dedicated: are you up to date with backups? [18:37] open a terminal and run firefox from there, and see what messages happen [18:38] 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 [18:41] /usr/bin/firefox: 1: /user/bin/firefox: which: Permission denied [18:41] im talking about system updates [18:41] using the update manger, or whatever [18:42] nope updating now :) [18:42] i would just install it on metal, and go for it [18:42] on metal? [18:42] migrating thta install from VM to metal is *not* all that trivial anyways [18:42] lol [18:42] ScG^Dedicated: on the hardware, not in VM [18:44] 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] VM is perfect to try all of that [18:44] you can do that where ever you like [18:44] im just saying, what are you going to do to move that out of VM to the hardware? [18:44] well yes but if I mess it up I have to reïnstall again [18:45] I am not going to transfer it, I will do it all over again [18:45] for me, it takes about 8 or so minutes to reinstall... [18:45] whow 8 mins [18:45] that's fast [18:45] you *should* figure out what you have dont to break FF though [18:45] what i suggest is... open a terminal and launch the application firefox from the terminal [18:45] I tried [18:45] you'll get error output [18:45] I typed what I got [18:45] ScG^Dedicated: thats not how i read it [18:46] ScG^Dedicated: open a terminal ... type fire and then hit tab [18:46] /usr/bin/firefox: 1: /user/bin/firefox: which: Permission denied [18:46] ok [18:46] same as what I posted earlier [18:46] permission denied [18:47] so, you've messed up your user permissions somehow [18:47] not sure, but you could trace back through what all you have done and "undo" it [18:47] OR, just reinstall, and come here *before* doing *anything* [18:47] apparmor can change user permissions? [18:47] hehe [18:49] You could try to purge and reinstall firefox, but why do you need AppArmor? [18:50] Also, 1204 is beta at best, so may not have that working yet. [18:50] I am following the security stickies on the ubuntu forum [18:51] if you can be safer then safe with just a few adjustions why not? :) [18:51] If it causes more problems than it solves, why? But anywho, you could try that, or temp disable apparmor and see if that fixes [18:52] 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? [18:53] frankv01: That would be correct, except I don't think there was one since everyone missed it. :P [18:54] lol [18:54] 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] ha, ok -- at least I'm not alone. How often are those held. I really meant to attend that. [18:54] I also missed it. :P [18:54] About once a month. [18:55] k, I'll keep an eye out. Thanks. [18:55] frankv01: Should be in the topic of the team channel. [18:57] I noticed that. [19:04] 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 [19:05] Firefox isn't as easy to setup in AppArmor as other programs. [19:06] well I see AppArmor as pretty advanced stuff anyway :) [19:07] I might check out SeLinux too to see if it's any easier [19:10] ScG^Dedicated: you seen this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1008906 [19:10] yes [19:10] that is what I used [19:10] create firefox profile [19:10] boom [19:10] xD [19:11] bodhi_zazen is the guy to talk to when he's about and got time [19:11] I did: sudo genprof firefox and since then it stopped working [19:12] 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] well that did not work for me :P [19:56] bodhi_zazen you here by any chance? === yofel_ is now known as yofel === Areil is now known as Guest83033 === Guest83033 is now known as trashtoalk === jalcine is now known as JackyAlcine === JackyAlcine is now known as jalcine
