mkultra_fairly sure00:00
gastiActionParsnip: Done, and finally could execute update-grub.00:00
lisa_mkultra_: so I press lt + ctl + f2, and then type killall gdm && startx ?00:00
mkultra_you could also run sudo apt-get install xfce4 and run startxfce00:00
lisa_mkultra_: brb gone to try it.00:00
mkultra_yeah you should kill your crashing gdmal00:00
mkultra_alt ctl f7 takes u back00:00
mkultra_or f800:01
mkultra_f7 4 me00:01
lisa_mkultra_: i dont want xfce. i want ghnome as normal00:02
lisa_I got a big problem guys.. I created an image using Clonezilla.  And then when I went to reboot Ubuntu it loops at the login page.. I enter my password, i see black screen with text for 2 seconds and it loops back to login page!  What can I do?  All options in Safe Mode didnt help00:02
ActionParsnipgasti: reboot to test00:03
lisa_any fix for a looping login page?00:03
gastiActionParsnip: Ok , be right back.00:03
mkultra_you might want to run sudo apt-get install gdm if you have lightdm and default to gdm00:03
lisa_mkultra_: you are confusing me00:04
lisa_mkultra_: i installed Ubuntu 11.10 yesterday.  How I fix it?00:04
abhatnaghey guys, almost every other time I start my oneiric, I get a "wireless device not ready". I then have to restart to try my luck again. Is there a fix for this issue?00:04
mkultra_your login page is either gdm ldm xdm or kdm...  if ldm fails, try gdm00:04
ScuniziHow do I run a .pyw file/program ?? I've changed the permissions and set the execute bit. Double clicking in the directory doesn't do it00:04
wyldemkultra_: ldm != lightdm00:04
lisa_mkultra_: its a fresh 11.10 install. do you know what command I should be typing?00:04
mkultra_yeah sudo apt-get install gdm00:04
lisa_wylde: any ideas?00:05
mkultra_that will turn LDM off and GDM on00:05
mkultra_im on 12.04 but its very similar to 11.10 and i run GDM00:05
exutuxlisa_: where did you save clonezilla image? on your home?00:05
lisa_mkultra_: so whats the command?00:05
mkultra_"sudo apt-get install gdm"00:05
wyldelisa_: are you able to login to your account if you use ctrl+alt+f1 and enter login credentials?00:05
lisa_exutux: onto my external hard drive.00:05
abhatnagScunizi: try going 'python filename.pyw'00:06
ActionParsnipScunizi: what does the file command say it is?00:06
lisa_wylde: no, it loops back to login page00:06
LirthIn ubuntu, using the preinstalled LibreOffice, how do I change the default language? It's on English (UK) and I need it for English (USA).00:06
exutuxlisa_: uhm are you sure? try ctrl+alt+f1 login and type df -h look for device space00:06
wyldelisa_: from terminal?00:06
ScuniziActionParsnip: it's a program my son made00:06
gastiActionParsnip: Same. Delay in videos when stopping/resuming, and heavy noise at mic recording.00:06
ActionParsnipScunizi: fine, but what does file say the file type is00:06
lisa_exutux: 100%, its saved the image to external hard drive00:06
snail_Hi. I have a nub queston, sorry for this, but google can't help me. What is first number in "Version" string in "aptitude show package_name" output? For example "Version: 2:3.5.4~dfsg-1ubuntu8.5" what is 2?00:06
ActionParsnipgasti: ok, remove the option and rerun the update-grub00:06
ScuniziActionParsnip: python 3.2 file00:06
exutuxlisa_: well try00:07
wyldelisa_: ctrl+alt+f1 will take you to a bare terminal, are you able to login from there00:07
gastiActionParsnip: what option?00:07
lisa_but why would doing an image using Clonzilla cause my ubuntu login screen to loop?00:07
lisa_wylde: let me try that, brb00:07
wyldelisa_: no idea, but are you able to login from tty100:07
wyldeok00:07
lisa_whats tt1?00:07
exutuxlisa_:  try ctrl+alt+f1 login and type df -h look for device space00:07
mkultra_clearly it altered something important00:08
mkultra_and it needs repaired00:08
lisa_mkultra_: how do I repeair it?00:08
mkultra_hows that alt + ctl + f2 gdm coming along00:08
mkultra_alt + ctrl + f200:08
mkultra_sudo apt-get install gdm00:08
mkultra_= repair00:08
lisa_i followed this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7ywkc4LU1000:08
mkultra_or ldm re-install00:09
wyldelisa_: it's just like a big terminal with no gui. Let us know if you can login that way.00:09
mkultra_but id purge it first and then reinstall it00:09
exutuxwell good luck lisa_00:09
lisa_Clonezilla worked well, created an image onto my external hdd.  but now Ubuntu loops at login page00:09
wyldemkultra_: lightdm is not the same thing as ldm00:09
mkultra_ok so then theres lightdm and ldm then00:09
lisa_but how can creating an image mess with the source?00:09
mkultra_but still GDM would log her in and link up properly upon install00:09
lisa_the only thing it may be is using 0 at spliting image?00:09
lisa_so what commands do i try again? please repost00:10
wyldelisa_: worrying about how right now isn't helping fix anything. PLease try using ctrl+alt+f1 and let us know if you can login there.00:10
ScuniziActionParsnip: I needed python 3.2 and -tk amoung other stuff to get it to run.. thanks00:10
sheenzzmy browser isn't opening, why?00:10
lisa_wylde: ok beb00:10
lisa_brb00:10
keith_linux123hi all00:10
keith_linux123can I run a server on top of desktop linux ?00:11
mkultra_hi00:11
mkultra_yes00:11
mkultra_i run apache and talk to you from my apache server00:11
CFHowlettkeith_linux123   yep00:11
mkultra_i run a ntp server too00:11
keith_linux123ok, the federoa channel called me stupid for saying that00:11
keith_linux123since I really really need a GUI00:11
wyldekeith_linux123: it runs more "under" the desktop then on top :P00:11
ActionParsnipkeith_linux123: you can run server services in the desktop OS if you want00:12
mkultra_they use RPM dont trust them00:12
keith_linux123I plan on runing this in a VM too00:12
gastiActionParsnip: I tried to change the line but when i run sudo update-grub it comes with /etc/default/grub: 35: Syntax error: EOF in backquote substitution.   Pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/899840/00:12
CFHowlettkeith_linux123   doable ...00:12
keith_linux123like last night I had it set up just fine00:12
keith_linux123all it runs is a very small database appp00:13
Monykeith_linux123, you can, but the question do u want to? because i assume you are talking about your desktop pc. you know the one that u may crash or restart or anything00:13
ActionParsnipkeith_linux123: why bother? just run the services on the desktop OS, it will use your hardware less as you are not running 2 OSes00:13
keith_linux123well, I want to be able to save states00:13
ActionParsnipgasti: change GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=.quiet splash"   to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"00:13
keith_linux123backup , ect00:13
keith_linux123i'm testing it at home00:13
ActionParsnipkeith_linux123: ah then yes states are handy :)00:14
keith_linux123but this is for small bussinesses00:14
wyldegasti: line 11 .quiet should be "quiet00:14
keith_linux123like many of them need some low impact databases00:14
Monyfor testing its ok, but for anything "production" its far from ok00:14
snail_Hi. I have a nub queston, sorry for this, but google can't help me. What is first number in "Version" line in "aptitude show package_name" output exactly mean? For example "Version: 2:3.5.4~dfsg-1ubuntu8.5" what is 2?00:14
ActionParsnipgasti: exactly the same as last time you had to edit it, wasn't that a little obvious...?00:14
Basstard`What text editors have crash recovery?00:14
gastiActionParsnip: Sorry, lol. Now worked. Still have the same problems with delay and heavy noise.00:15
samantha-a--how easy is it to get desktop running with three heads? i'm using a pair of EVGA GTX 460SEs, 1st gen.00:15
ActionParsnipBasstard`: gedit makes backups with tildes on the end of file names I believe, libreoffice does too00:15
mkultra_easy as pie for 2, dont imagine 3 being much different00:15
Basstard`ActionParsnip: gedit only does that to already saved/named files, not to totally new files which have never been saved00:16
Monymkultra_,  if i remmeber correct nvidia cards can support up to 2 displays each, so the 3rd should be connected to the second card.00:16
keith_linux123much thanks everyone00:16
_MarcusHow do I drag a window from one desktop to another?00:17
_MarcusWorkspace I mean00:17
research4oscari am getting the following error when trying to connect to my ubuntu machine from my laptop using winscp: Cannot initialize SFTP protocol. Is the host running a SFTP server?00:17
keith_linux123each time I ask a question in the fedora chanel I hear "blah blah, terminal , terminal "00:17
_MarcusI cant see the top part, so it's harder to drag00:17
keith_linux123_Marcus00:17
keith_linux123just drag it !00:17
keith_linux123over00:17
_Marcuskeith_linux123: Get used to using the terminal, it's very, very important00:17
wylde_Marcus: you can right click on the title bar and select "Send to workspace ...."00:18
_MarcusI cant see the title bar00:18
_MarcusNever mind, I got it00:18
ActionParsnipkeith_linux123: its handy to know some terminal stuff, plus irc is a text interface so giving commands makes sense00:18
Artemis3research4oscar, do you have installed the package "ssh" ? or "openssh-server"?00:18
keith_linux123yea, but they were rude about it00:19
ActionParsnipkeith_linux123: plus it alleviates user error for clicking the wrong thing, or not finding what needs to be clicked00:19
ActionParsnipkeith_linux123: yeah rude isn't cool00:19
keith_linux123like I know alot of Linux vets hate the new GUI based distros, but still00:19
keith_linux123tell me that I have no idea what i'm doing sense I found an easier way...00:19
garthkGrabbing linux-headers-2.6.32-40_2.6.32-40.87_all.deb is slow from utah.edu, too? Weeeeird.00:20
ActionParsnipkeith_linux123: easier is good, as long as it achieves the same goal who cares :D00:20
keith_linux123anyway, VM vs hardware for sever ?00:20
gastiActionParsnip: Any idea?00:20
keith_linux123advantage of VM , a client doesn't need a new computer to run00:20
research4oscarartemis3: yes. i can connect with my regular user just fine.00:20
keith_linux123advantage of hardware, more stable00:20
lisa_it didfnt work00:21
lisa_it keeps looping00:21
lisa_and installing gdm messed it right now.. now says cannot update ICRauthority00:21
research4oscarartemis3: i created another webuser with limited access to a folder under var/www and assigned him as owner.00:21
ActionParsnipgasti: all I can suggest is report a bug, you could try precise in liveCD, see if its any better there with the newer kernel00:22
lisa_Im sure Ubuntu is good but i cant use it guys.. its crashed on me and I spend 12 hours for nothing :(00:22
lisa_bye guys thanks for all your help00:22
wetcircle_hi guys00:22
wetcircle_just setup my vpn.00:22
ActionParsnipkeith_linux123: shouldn't be wildly different as its a text based UI, so its fine00:22
ScuniziActionParsnip: I got a python semnatics question.. you up for it ??00:22
gastiActionParsnip: Thank you, i'll keep looking here. I saw some guys who had the same problem and dint find the solution yet.. :S00:22
keith_linux123thanks guys00:22
ActionParsnipScunizi: I'm no good in python dude, sorry. Try #python00:22
ScuniziActionParsnip: k..00:23
keith_linux123like i'm a IT jack of all trades00:23
sheenzzmy browsers not working, why?00:25
ActionParsnipsheenzz: details please, 'not working' tells us nothing00:26
almoxarifesheenzz: cause its broke?00:26
research4oscari am getting the following error when trying to connect to my ubuntu machine from my laptop using winscp: Cannot initialize SFTP protocol. Is the host running a SFTP server?00:26
sheenzzas in not opening00:26
ActionParsnipsheenzz: run it from terminal00:26
keith_linux123so i can't be an expert at everything00:27
sheenzzhow do i00:27
ActionParsnipresearch4oscar: did you install openssh-server on the server side? Is the service runnning?00:27
almoxariferesearch4oscar: is it? sftp=secure ftp00:27
ActionParsnipsheenzz: which browser are you using?00:27
sheenzzchrome00:27
research4oscaryes opnssh-server is running.00:28
sheenzzactionparsnip: chrome00:28
almoxariferesearch4oscar: is this a win error > Cannot initialize SFTP protocol00:29
ActionParsnipsheenzz: i believe you will run:  google-chrome00:29
bastidrazorresearch4oscar: in winscp do not use SFTP under File Protocol:  .. Select SSH00:29
ActionParsnipresearch4oscar: can you ping the server?00:29
research4oscari think it is. i can try installing filezilla and will get back to you00:29
research4oscari'll try that.00:29
ActionParsnipresearch4oscar: was going to suggest filezilla00:29
sheenzzoh00:30
almoxariferesearch4oscar: filezilla=cause it works00:30
ActionParsnipalmoxarife: if a bit bloated00:32
sheenzzactionparsnip: no, it didnt work00:32
keith_linux123so anyway, how stable is a sunbox Virtual box running inside of a windows host00:32
keith_linux123since thats what i'm going to be doing00:33
ActionParsnipkeith_linux123: should be ok00:33
keith_linux123SEE, thats all i needed to hear00:33
almoxarifeActionParsnip: think so? never thought so, bloated is 'kontact' from kde , leave it to its own devices and 120meg is gonna come real fast00:33
keith_linux123the fedora chanel ganged up on me and  said it was all a bad idea00:33
ActionParsnip!info filezilla | almoxarife00:34
ubottualmoxarife: filezilla (source: filezilla): Full-featured graphical FTP/FTPS/SFTP client. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.5.0-0ubuntu1 (oneiric), package size 1277 kB, installed size 3168 kB00:34
ActionParsnipalmoxarife: 3Mb! its silly00:34
ActionParsnipsheenzz: try:  grep Exec /usr/share/applications/goo*00:35
almoxarifekeith_linux123: fedora-ites are snobbish and elitist as a badge of honor(I assume), on the other hand ubuntu is suppose to be a GUI wonderland of linux, I like it that way, hence why I use it, think like that00:36
snail_Hi. I have a nub queston, sorry for this, but google can't help me. What is first number in "Version" line in "aptitude show package_name" output exactly mean? For example "Version: 2:3.5.4~dfsg-1ubuntu8.5" what is 2?00:36
almoxarifeActionParsnip: but, but, it's a gui00:36

snail_<ActionParsnip> thanx, but this article about end numbers of version line. I mean it is about numbers behind ubuntu word. But I asked about start number (2) between Version word and version number (e.g. 2.5.4).00:45
gastiActionParsnip: Still there bro? I found the solution for the youtube and videos delay.00:47
wyldesnail_: I believe that is the upstream maintainers/authors version00:47
gastiwylde: do you remember my flash delay problem?00:48
wyldegasti: I read some about it yes.00:48
gastiwylde: i found the solution, but it is only for firefox, maybe you could help me applying it to chrome. I'll show you: I did exactly this and the delay competely dissapeared: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1760248&page=300:49
fernandocuevawhat is the difference between installing a .run file using sh ./ or just ./00:50
wyldegasti: meaning you followed that in Firefox?00:51
snail_<wylde> thanx for your opinion, but it's so strange that i can't find exact information about it...00:52
gastiwylde: what? sorry. I followed these steps and solved it in forefox. -> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/294666/comments/34     but I want to make it work properly in chromium00:52
ubottuLaunchpad bug 294666 in pulseaudio (Ubuntu) "PulseAudio causes sound latency in 8.10" [Undecided,Fix committed]00:52
wyldefix commited since 8.10 hmmm00:53
Jordan_Ufernandocueva: "sh /path/to/file" means use the interpreter sh to interpret the file passed as an sh script. "/path/to/file" alone means execute file, if it's a binary run it, if it has a #! line then use the interpreter and options specified there.00:53
wyldegasti: I'm not sure I'm the one to ask about using this fix for chromium..00:54
Jordan_Ufernandocueva: './' is simply the beginning of a path to a file, starting with the current directory ('.'). IMHO you should never use "sh /path/to/file" because file may be a bash script, or a perl script, or a binary instead of a POSIX sh script.00:55
Jordan_Ufernandocueva: That said, you usually should also avoid installing things via any type of script rather than the package manager if at all possible.00:55
wyldegasti: lol ok I see what they're doing.00:56
Nicolas_Leonida2hey if I install wordpress with aptitute on ubuntu, will I be able to upgrade it with apt-get?00:56
Jordan_UNicolas_Leonida2: Yes.00:56
wyldemake a copy of the file thay had you make for firefox, rename it chromium or somesuch00:56
wyldegasti: make a copy of the file thay had you make for firefox, rename it chromium or somesuch00:56
Nicolas_Leonida2Jordan_U: will the security releases be auto installed as well?00:57
wyldegasti: on the last line change it to exec /usr/bin/chromium-browser "$@"00:58
CFHowletty00:58
Jordan_UNicolas_Leonida2: There is basically no difference between "sudo aptidue install foo" and "sudo apt-get install foo" anymore (and in the past the main difference was knowing what was automatically installed vs manually installed so that when you *removed* a package you had an easier time clearing out the cruft it depended on as well).00:58
almoxarifeis there a 'watch-dog' sort of process/app/util that will look for a running occurrence of some process and kills it if found?00:59
gastiwylde: it's not working00:59
wyldegasti: not working as in? still have sound issues? browser won't start? details please01:00
fernandocuevaso Jordan_U I don't need to type both then sh and ./01:00
gastiwylde: I tried  to create another file named chromium-browser with the same contain that the firefox one. Of course i changed the firefox line to chromium-browser but when i try to execute it it says: "bash: /user/local/bin/chromium-browser: No existe el archivo o el directorio01:01
gasti"01:01
=== dreaded is now known as fyrfaktry
Jordan_UspittingCobra: Not only do you not need to type the sh, you *shouldn't*. Yould instead make sure that the permissions are set correctly and simply enter the path. But before you do that, what are you actually trying to install?01:02
wyldegasti: /usr not /user01:02
gastiwylde: nvm , typping error. I could execute it but the delay isnt fixed01:02
gastiwylde: yea just noted that, but look up :p01:02
wyldegasti: hmmm, sorry beyond that I don't know what to tell you. Thought modifying the script might have worked.01:03

escottbbOOmm, and the random 10 second delays are also a bit weird. if that were really necessary I would strongly suggest not running that program ever because it must be horribly written and you dont want to trust something like that with root02:23
abhatnagActionParsnip: true; just as an FYI, I think this nic has something to do with 3+ linux kernel, cause another repo I used for drivers on Fedora stopped supporting it right then as well02:23
bbOOmmescott : I do not think I'm running in root with the GUI ( gnome) ... I just couldn't figure out how -just yet- to get the sound card and darkice all setup with out the gui... learning the command line stuff and new to darkice, so I went with something I knew to start with.02:24

atxqso how can I reset my touchpad when it freezes up?02:26
escottbbOOmm, well i would encourage you to figure out how to do it properly, but if you *must* do it this way then the thing to do is create a script that has the necessary sleeps and then mark that script with the setuid bit and add it to your gnome-session, but there are all kinds of security klaxon's going off with doing something like that02:26

escottbbOOmm, darkice isn't requiring root, its currently configured to use RT scheduling which your system has configured to only allow for root. I think RT scheduling is a bit overkill for anything but professional use, but your options are: (a) grant root (discouraged) (b) configure darkice to not use RT (I would do this) (c) configure our system to allow RT for non-root02:34

FyodorovnaJ-Escobar, you have the partition mounted, and no space to move it to. Unmount with the disk utility with gparted closed. Resize the the sdc3 partition, then just delete the swap, expand the sdc1 into the free space leaving room for a new swap.04:57

Jordan_UJ-Escobar: According to the ouptput from mount, /dev/sdc1 (the first partition on the drive sdc) is mounted to '/', which basically means that it's the partition you booted from. If you're trying to resize partitions on sdc, then you really need to boot from another drive.05:08

J-Escobarwylde: ok, i can boot my hd. i just need to resize it to the full 2tb. what would you use?05:25
wyldeJ-Escobar: make a bootable usb with unetbootin.... choose ubuntu then you will have to boot from the usb to be able to resize the partition on your hard drive05:26
wyldeJ-Escobar: you can NOT resize a filesystem you are using. If you boot from your hard drive then you are using it's filesystem....do you understand that?05:27
J-Escobarwylde: i do yes. but i have 2 hard drives with 10.04. and from what i am seeing i do not have the hd mounted that i am wanting to resize. i will try a usb to make sure.05:28
wyldeJ-Escobar: so...that said. You need to make a bootable usb to use to access your hard drive to resize the partiton05:29
wyldeJ-Escobar: that would be best, then we know for sure you are not on the partition you want to resize05:30

yakebhi all, i'm on 11.10 and did a recent kernel upgrade to 3.0.0-16 and it seems to have broken pulseaudio and pulseaudio-equalizer. it doesn't work now when booting into any kernel, is there an easy way to reinstall without having to make a bunch of new configuration files?06:17
dooma09can anyone help with network issue connecting to internet...06:18

Palatinussorry I mean a 550 Ti07:11
JKidResearch on the internet what is compatible with what your motherboard requirements are and the physical build is identical to a win based system07:12
CFHowlettPalatinus   hardware depends first on the OEM support.  Failing that, the open source community may or may not have a fully realized driver for your specific card.  So far as games, the wine project enables many windows based games to run on linux07:12

CFHowlettPalatinus   suggestion first: Install virtualbox in windows.  Install ubuntu in virtualbox.  Then you can test ubuntu in complete safety.07:32
CFHowlettMy opinion?  My laptop has ubuntu, Snow Leopard and Win7.  About 90% of the time, I'm running ubuntu.  Free, fast, flexible, does what I want, yada yada yada.  (My $0.02)07:33

dalek_CFHowlett, almoxarife yes. I have now gone to system monitor and killed the startup disk creator process. Pulled the USB stick out and it seems to be working fine in the new computer... so I guess it worked before it hung.07:57

A couple of directories down is a dir called xyz which is owned by myself(user) and it's group is www-data (rwxrwxrw-).

[Si]shomon I guess it's getting the price down to ~ free made them less reliable.10:33
Jordan_UMestreLion: I think that "proxy" is an odd term that makes it seem more complicated than it is. Shells are shells, this is not a shell. You can run commands without ever involving a shell, like when using the exec() system call from C.10:35
MestreLionjunglejim: that is really weird... care ty pastebin a session? ls -la /var/www/couple/dirs/down && id | pastebinit10:35

dr3mrohello ,, how to change permission of /dev/null to 666 every boot .. using chmod only during current session but it's reset upon boot19:00

=== guest-59Ofem_ is now known as lamont_
dr3mrovlt, i don't know but suddenly lightdm fails and i have to set /dev/null to 666 to make it work using vt but that is realy bad19:02
vltdr3mro: /etc/rc.local19:03
vltdr3mro: (But that doesn’t fix what caused that.)19:03
dr3mrovlt, is there a way to know what is the cause19:03

dr3mromirko1, no19:07

dansulhello19:10
dansulIf I install ubuntu 12.04 now, will I be able to upgrade to 12.04 stable when it's released ?19:10
bazhang!final | dansul19:10
ubottudansul: If you install a development version of Ubuntu Precise and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 12.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a terminal. Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1.19:10
mirko1Shane-S: no, most distro (including ubuntu) use modified kernels and it's advisable to use them instead of the vanila one from kernel.org. or you learn (tuts on the net) how to build  an ubuntu kernel from the vanilla one.19:10
dr3mromirko1, I did find that but upon reboot .. the same issue happens again19:11
dansulthanks19:11
mneptokShane-S: kernel.org (no 's')19:12
qbert_do you guys use any deferred / future / promises libs ?  If so what do ya'll use ?19:12
Shane-Smirko1: so is there a way to get the modified kernel easily? I am want to see if I can use it in the PXE system to get the netbook to load (all so I am image it)19:13
qbert_whoops wrong channel19:13
mneptokShane-S: add the source repos in /etc/apt/sources.list and then get the -source paclages19:13
SubstreamAIDeja Dup and Ubuntu One... wt? is going on with this... what is it doing?  Where is the backup???19:13
SubstreamAIWhy can't I delete old backups and start over?19:14
mneptokShane-S: rather, just uncomment source lines in sources.list19:14
SubstreamAIWhat is who thinking on this design... what is it doing????19:14
Shane-Smneptok: okay, but they will .deb packages right? I am not familiar with them, are they just as easy to extract a tar.gz?19:14
Elfecan I scroll back when looking at a manual in cli? Like man rmdir for example.19:15
mneptokShane-S: the source files get unpacked for you. you actually never touch a .deb during this process. go look in your filesystem when done.19:15
mneptokElfe: the arrow keys do not work?19:16
FyodorovnaSubstreamAI, if you want a gui and accessible backups try grsync.19:16
Elfemneptok: no, just space or enter, but they only go forward :)19:17
SubstreamAII'm not married to the idea of having a gui... I just want to know what its doing... where is the backup???19:17
SubstreamAIbefore I can try something else, I want to clean up what I have19:17
Elfemneptok: I'm in terminal without any GUI19:17
SubstreamAII don't like having multiple gigs of backups that I can't find19:18

Sazpaimon_but grub just dumps me to the menu20:18
Sazpaimon_or rather, the grub shell20:18
Sazpaimon_i dont feel  like re-downloading the tarball all over again, can i get wubi to re-try the grub installation?20:19
KM0201Sazpaimon_: i wouldn;'t use wubi period... but thats just my opinion20:19
Sazpaimon_also, I'm not sure if it's a regression, but wubi happily installed on a compressed NTFS volume20:19
Sazpaimon_I thought that was fixed20:19
Sazpaimon_KM0201, I needed a quick linux install, all my livecds are at home and I dont have them20:20
ajwajxfce is good :) And you can set automatic start of gnome services if you want20:20
CFHowlettSazpaimon_   unless you are using wubi for it's intended purpose, i.e. *testing* ubuntu, I'd recommend you install a proper dual boot.20:20
Sazpaimon_if I had my way I'd install gentoo, but i dont feel like repartitioning20:20
KM0201CFHowlett: for some reason, people always seem to overlook that, and think wubi is a permanent install20:20
Sazpaimon_CFHowlett, I needed to mount a few ext4 volumes, don't have any cds handy to burn a livecd, and dont realy feel like repartitioning today20:21
CFHowlettSazpaimon_   another testing option is to install virtualbox on windows, install ubuntu to virtualbox and testing it out.20:21
Sazpaimon_wubi is pretty much my best bet20:21
CFHowlettSazpaimon_   USB with unetbootin?20:21
Sazpaimon_no flash drives20:21
mirko1sta7ic: what I gathered from different people, you have to reinstall an older version without Gnome3/Unity to get back your complete Gmome2 desktop.20:21

pangolin!notunity | speedhog21:36
ubottuspeedhog: 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 !classic21:36

macmartineIf dir1 is owned by user1 / group1, but I want user2 to be able to read/write to that directory over sftp, should i appraoch that by adding user2 to group1?21:41
donniei am not sure! i have windows 7 on a external drive i was going to try and boot it on start up but it just loads to login and wont start up21:41
bastidrazormacmartine: or create a group2 and add both users to it and chgrp dir1 to have group2 as the group owner21:41
Zaitzevpangolin: I hate having to register on the application forum just for one banale question that they might not even be able to answer, since it seems more like a system-problem than an application-problem. This has happened to other programs as well.21:42
macmartinebastidrazor: ok. then what would the proper chmod be?21:42
pangolinZaitzev, but it may be due to some lib update and they are better suited to ask you which lib versions you have and then help fix it or update the app.21:43
Zaitzevpangolin: The weird thing is that it worked just fine earlier today, and there has been no updates or even usage of this computer since then.21:44
Bitvilagso anyone have an idea to my problem?21:44
bastidrazormacmartine: the directory needs read and execute for the group. i assume the owner has rwx if so then you need,, chmod 750 dir1 ..that gives r-x to the group for dir121:45

ubottuanthropos yes:: If you install a development version of Ubuntu Precise and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 12.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a terminal. Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1.22:33

shaketo the file /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf22:44
ActionParsnipshake: it adds it to the file22:44

=== nW444b is now known as nW44b
shakebecause I understand some of them, but I get confused when the or operator (|) is used, and when grep and tee are used22:46
shammancerIs there a way to make more shortcuts like ~ for home?22:46
qbert_alias ?22:46
ActionParsnipshake: if the file was writable by your user you could use >> instead but sudo doesn't traverse the operator, so you have to pipe to sudo tee22:46
mirko1shammancer: alias, symlink, readline bindings22:47
Dulakshammancer: you can alias anything to anything else, an example I use: alias ..='cd ..'22:47
ActionParsnipshake: grep is a filter and searcher for strings and so forth, very powerful22:47
shakewhat's piping? is that what the '|' is for?22:47
qbert_yes22:47
shakeok, that sort of makes sense22:47
Dulakshake a pipe takes the output from 1 command and feed it as input to another command, creating a 'pipe' between the commands22:48
ActionParsnipshake: | is the pipe character, its how you join the output of one command into another22:48
joallardMy computer doesn't boot anymore. How do I diagnose it?22:48
ActionParsnipshake: for example, running 'ls $HOME' will list the folders in home, if you run: 'ls $HOME | grep D      it will show all the files and folders with an uppercase 'D' in them22:49
ActionParsnipshake: obviously omit the quotes22:49
shakeyea, that's sick, I've heard about pipes and shit before, but I thought it was much more in depth22:49
shakeso in that command echo "options snd-hda-intel model=mbp55"22:50
mirko1joallard: "doesn't boot anymore" is a wide range from doesn't even get power to i cannot log in, you need to provide a lot more infro at what step it stops22:50
shakegives the output of the string "options snd-hda-intel model=mbp55"22:50
shakeand then that pipes into sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf22:50
shakewhich adds the line to the file?22:50
ActionParsnipshake: exactly22:51

Dulakshake: Yup, and tee is like a T shaped pipe, output comes in, and is output to 2 different places22:52
shakethat's awesome22:52
shammancerOk is there a way to make an alias for a directory?22:52
shakeso in this case it was outputted to /dev/null and /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf22:52
shammancerand what is ~ anyways?22:52
Dulakshammancer: you would symlink a directory: ln -s /path/to/source /path/to/destination22:52
shake~ is your home directory22:52
ActionParsnipshake: its handy for adding junk to text files like that :)22:52
joallardActionParsnip: I just did that. Last line is "starting timidity++ ALSA midi emulation [OK]". This doesn't seem to be the problem. What should I be looking for?22:52
shakethat's awesome22:53
shakewait, but why did you output it to /dev/null?22:53
MrAtlasis there any plugin he can download or is he SOL. i knoe those sites are usually unsafe.22:53

ActionParsnipshake: if you don't add it, it outputs to both the screen and file, so I shoved the screen text to /dev/null so it didn't show22:54
Dulakshammancer: it's part of the shell,  it's like an alias that is built in,  whenever the shell sees ~, it replaces it with your home directory22:55
ActionParsnipshake: ~ = /home/$USER = $HOME22:55

ubottuTo just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin.

anthroposdoes the badblocks command not work23:30
OysterCultIf I were to update would I lose my data for Thunderbird and things like that?23:30
PanthalaimonHad a similar problem with an ext3 drive, but that was easy, native support and all.23:30
Panthalaimonanthropos, It would, but I'm not sure how to use that to achieve my goals.23:30
Jordan_Uanthropos: the badblocks command will find bad blocks, but it won't change the filesystem to avoid them.23:30
mirko1Panthalaimon: if it really has bad blocks and neither the disk nor Windows/Linux can handle it, that you really should replace the disk23:30
Panthalaimonanthropos, It mentions feeding the output back to an fsck program. While there appears to be ntfsck, there's no man page for it.23:31
ActionParsnipOysterCult: no, only the binaries are updated and the config files for the app, the userdata in $HOME is untouched23:31
OctoBytehey guys, I'm not sure if this is the right place, but I just installed arch linux. Trying to boot up for the first time I get an error23:31
OctoByte"fsck.ntfs not found"23:31
szalOctoByte: try #archlinux23:31
OctoBytethanks23:31
Quantum_Ionszal, :)23:31
Panthalaimonmirko1, Linux can handle it. It will read data happily from it, and complain about the bad blocks in the kernel logs, but it's reading it from any Windows machine that's an issue, to the extent that CHKDSK from a Windows box will crash, when trying to scan for bad blocks.23:32
mirko1Flip_:  no, it's the basic scheduled task system of linux/unix. you can try GUI frontends such as gnome-schedule23:32
PanthalaimonAlso, fsck.ntfs does not link to anything ntfs. :S23:32
Quantum_IonI can not emphasis how important it is to have a good portable USB hardrive for Ubuntu Linux backups23:33
Jordan_UPanthalaimon: There is no fsck for ntfs, period.23:33
tiox[Low priority] 11.10, using a GTK3 theme but special applications like update-manager and synaptic do not adopt it. Is this strictly a GTK2 limitation or is it resolvable?23:33
Jordan_UPanthalaimon: You might get some helpful advice in ##windows.23:33
tioxI remember once this happened when theming, all I did was made a synlink to the theme I am using and it picked it up.23:33
tioxsymlink*23:34
Flip_mirko1 i found the man 5 crontab and i'd rather run it through terminal anyway - thanks I like this already23:34
PanthalaimonJordan_U, ntfsprogs and NTFS-3G both have ntfsfix and ntfsck... latter has no man page.23:34
Mike9863Icons are showing on menus and buttons even though I have the options disabled under desktop -> gnome -> interface under gconf-editor. How can I disable these icons?23:34
anthroposi don't have a man page for it either23:34
PanthalaimonJordan_U, I suspect that's because it does not do much.23:34
anthroposi assume you had no luck finding documentation online?23:35
Panthalaimonanthropos, Not much, no.23:37
anthropossorry I can't be of more help, it looks like you are on the right track though23:38
jlkkljhit opened up a grub command prompt what do i do?????23:38
Entelinwhat is the proper way to adjust the niceness that a service runs at? (perminately)23:38
PanthalaimonGah. I keep hitting brick walls with this NTFS stuff. I'm glad I switched but the wife is not that keen.23:39
anthroposi assume your new drive is in the mail....23:39

PanthalaimonLoshki, Having a look now.23:41
jlkkljhbut23:41
anthroposi don't really understand jlkkljh, can you be more specific about your problem and how it arose23:41
mirko1Entelin: edit the init script that starts the service23:41
ActionParsnipparadizelost: like a web based ssh? so you don't need an SSH client?23:41
Quantum_IonPanthalaimon, Have you tried Parted Magic ->http://partedmagic.com/doku.php?id=screenshots23:41
jlkkljhit says no prefix assigned23:42
faryshtahi. How do I install flash?23:42
paradizelostActionParsnip, more of a proxy that i can have ssh tunnel through23:42
PanthalaimonLoshki, I've literally hit about as much information. I was hoping on something that told me what flags it took.23:42
jlkkljhi press esc on keyboard23:42
PanthalaimonQuantum_Ion, No. But I'll look.23:42
glen_3bfaryshta: Software center23:42
Quantum_IonPanthalaimon, Burn an ISO it helps you graphically partition your hard drives23:42
ActionParsnipparadizelost: use the vnc guide but use apache23:42
ActionParsnip!vnc | paradizelost23:42
ubottuparadizelost: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX23:42
Entelinmirko1, thats what i'm doing now, I just wanted to see if there was a builtin way23:42
anthroposparadizelost: are sure there isn't a better way to do what you want23:43
PanthalaimonQuantum_Ion, I'm not looking to partition it, just a means to mark the bad blocks as such from outside of Windows.23:43
jlkkljhi choose acpi work arounds23:43
KarmaonHow do I NOT install grub or ubuntu onto a flashdrive?23:43
LoshkiPanthalaimon: you'll find the same thing others have already said. Some distros have ntfsck, some don't, there is a workaround for those that don't, but it's no substitute for a true windows chkdsk.23:43
jlkkljhit boots23:43
ActionParsnipKarmaon: don't use the ubuntu ISO, you wont install either23:43
paradizelostanthropos if there's a java or otherwise based web client that doesn't require the connection to come from my actual client PC, but rather the web server i log onto, that would work as well23:43
paradizelostbut i'm hoping to be able to tunnel other traffic through it23:43
jlkkljhto the blue screen of kubuntu and it brings up amouse and thats it23:44
anthroposparadizelost: what do you want to do?23:44
Quantum_IonPanthalaimon, You might want to use Parted Magic and create new and clean NTFS partition ?23:44
jlkkljhand than it freezes up but the mouse can still move23:44
anthroposssh will let you tunnel traffic w/o apache23:44
paradizelostanthropos connect via ssh to several systems i have behind my firewall, also tunnel RDP to my PC23:44
paradizelostthe problem is, my work network blocks ssh23:45
mirko1Entelin: not that i know off :-)23:45
jlkkljhit tries to load something but nothing happens23:45
Quantum_IonPanthalaimon, Sometimes when I upgrade Linux I will make a back up of my /home /etc/ directory and scrub the old Linux partition with Parted Magic23:45
PanthalaimonQuantum_Ion, I would, but then, I think that I could get away even with mkfs.ntfs.23:45
anthroposparadizelost: did you try just changing the ssh port from 22 to something else23:45
anthropose.g. the https port23:45
paradizelostanthropos i need apache on 80/443 though.23:45
jlkkljhthats my problem23:45
anthroposi doubt they do any real packet inspection23:45
paradizelosthttp://dag.wieers.com/howto/ssh-http-tunneling/ << is what i've been trying to follow23:45
anthropospick a different port. do they allow any others?23:45
PanthalaimonQuantum_Ion, I've done it too in the past, just not with Parted Magic. Whatever comes with my flavour of Ubuntu's usually been more than enough in the past. Just not for this particular NTFS crossover nonsense. :(23:46
jlkkljhit will not load the login screen23:46
azendmirko1: blocks ssh or blocks port 22 :o23:46
jlkkljhbut can see a mouse23:46
anthroposotherwise you could put in some iptables rules to deal with this in a clever way (e.g. route traffic coming to 443 from you work to a local ssh)23:46
paradizelostanthropos i'm trying to do it on a port that will always be open. no place is going to block 443 or 8023:46
Entelinmirko1, ok thanks23:46
anthroposdoing it THROUGH apache seems like a bad idea, to me.23:46
jlkkljhcant go to any other mode but acpi work arounds23:46

eph_hi, how can I change xfce's panel background? I created a gtkrc-2.0 file containing a path to the image but it keeps telling me "unable to locate in pxmap path"23:47
Quantum_IonPanthalaimon, Okay I see you use the Ubuntu Linux partitioner sometimes when I upgrade the Ubuntu Linux partitioner has a mind of it's own and will resize partitions on it's own and preserve old Ubuntu Linux it's weird23:47
