schnuffle | Luigi2012SM64DS: did it work some times or it didn't it work from the beginning? | 00:10 |
rallias | The auto logging out is caused by a tcp disconnect. | 00:10 |
dorin | rallias! ok, that was - so its not program's fault.. thank you | 00:11 |
Luigi2012SM64DS | i didn't work in the beginning but i did something in the settings and it worked but that i rebooted and it stopped (i did try that thing again but it didn't work | 00:11 |

schnuffle | ActionParsnip: true, was to lazy to change the line | 00:16 |

schnuffle | ActionParsnip: but why use tee and not just echo "...." >> .....? | 00:17 |
saad_ | I installed w32codecs | 00:19 |
saad_ | nothing | 00:19 |
saad_ | It actually asks for Windows Media audio 9 | 00:19 |

saad_ | it asks for apt-cdrom | 00:20 |
Jasonxx | how do u install something from svn | 00:20 |
ActionParsnip | schnuffle: sudo doesn't traverse the redirection | 00:20 |
Jasonxx | i always see paches being released through svn | 00:20 |
ActionParsnip | saad_: remove the CD as a source | 00:20 |
schnuffle | ActionParsnip: thanx | 00:20 |
Jasonxx | but never really know how to upload them | 00:20 |
Jasonxx | update* | 00:20 |
ActionParsnip | schnuffle: the only bit getting sudo powers is the echo command ;) | 00:20 |

schnuffle | Jasonxx: svn is a code versioning system. So you don't install something you check out code | 00:23 |

=== cassio is now known as Guest76193 | ||
saad_ | sorry | 00:24 |
saad_ | that's incompelete | 00:24 |
tnks_ | I just found a bug for gitolite that's reported in Debian's bug tracking system, but I don't see Gitalite set up for bug reporting in Launchpad. | 00:24 |
saad_ | schnuffle: there -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/919764/ | 00:25 |
tnks_ | I understand Debian's reportbug system, because it's simple email. | 00:25 |
tnks_ | but I'm confused about how Ubuntu manages bugs, especially if projects are all set up in Launchpad. | 00:25 |
=== Guest76193 is now known as __kcio__ | ||
schnuffle | saad_: aah, comment the first line, then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 00:26 |
saad_ | ok | 00:26 |
trism | tnks_: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gitolite , you can also use: ubuntu-bug package_name; | 00:28 |
tnks_ | trism: yeah, I'm trying ubuntu-bug now. | 00:28 |
tnks_ | maybe it will reveal something the launchpad site didn't have available. | 00:28 |
tnks_ | trism: interesting. . . your link is different from https://launchpad.net/gitolite | 00:30 |
tnks_ | I don't get the difference but the "bugs" tab shows different things. | 00:30 |
trism | tnks_: that is the project package, the link I gave is for the ubuntu source package | 00:30 |
tnks_ | trism: can I get to one from the other? | 00:31 |
tnks_ | also, I'm not too sure I understand the difference. | 00:31 |
trism | tnks_: it is the difference between reporting a bug against a package in debian, versus reporting upstream (or it would be if gitolite did bug tracking on launchpad, but they don't) | 00:32 |
schnuffle | saad_: how is to going? | 00:33 |
saad_ | schnuffle: update and upgrade will take a while :D | 00:33 |
schnuffle | saad_: but that means at least its running. Does that mean your problem is solved? | 00:34 |
saad_ | you told me to comment the 1st line | 00:34 |
saad_ | and run update and upgrade | 00:34 |
saad_ | am doing what you said :D | 00:34 |
schnuffle | saad_: yes, because you were complaining about apt-cdrom. And that has disappeared, hasn'T it? | 00:35 |
saad_ | I wasn't complaining about that | 00:35 |
schnuffle | saad_: or is that only the first part of your problem? :) | 00:35 |
saad_ | the problem is | 00:36 |
saad_ | I cant play resitricted formats as WMA and WMV | 00:36 |
saad_ | so totem asks for upgrade | 00:36 |
saad_ | I get an error asking me to run apt-cdrom | 00:36 |
saad_ | I have ubuntu-restricted... package | 00:36 |
saad_ | and w32codecs | 00:36 |
schnuffle | saad_: that should have gone, retry with totem after the update | 00:36 |
saad_ | okay | 00:37 |
saad_ | btw | 00:37 |
saad_ | is 12.04 LITS? | 00:37 |
saad_ | LTS* | 00:37 |
schnuffle | saad_: yes it will be a LTS | 00:37 |
saad_ | Good | 00:37 |
saad_ | finally :D | 00:37 |
schnuffle | saad_: antoher question, have you already installed ubuntu-restricted-extras? That should bring you the wma,wmv support | 00:39 |
saad_ | yes | 00:39 |
saad_ | I already installed it | 00:39 |
Jasonxx | guys how do i detach something form the shell | 00:39 |
Jasonxx | i am running program in shell but i don't want to close it with shell | 00:39 |
Jasonxx | is there shortcut to press to detach it | 00:39 |
Jasonxx | so it doesn't excit when i exit the shell | 00:39 |
schnuffle | Jasonxx: with Ctrl+Z you can detach it, but it will still close when you close the shell. For future uses, take screen | 00:40 |
Jasonxx | ah | 00:41 |
Jasonxx | so for screen i can do : screen programname ? | 00:41 |
schnuffle | !screen | Jasonxx | 00:42 |
ubottu | Jasonxx: screen is a window manager for terminal sessions, also useful over SSH. The 'byobu' package provides very useful additional utilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Screen | 00:42 |

malac0da | Hey is there a tool to adjust fan speeds for my AMD video cards without using the proprietary tools? I find that installing the actual AMD stuff always cause problems sooner than later. | 01:52 |
malac0da | And without the AMD drivers the fans run excessively loud | 01:52 |
Xabster | malac0da, I had the same problem and there is such a program atleast for pulse width modulation | 01:52 |
Xabster | And my card does not support that | 01:53 |
Xabster | so i had to take the drivers | 01:53 |
Xabster | google some stuff about fan speed and lm-sensors | 01:53 |
Xabster | you need the lm-sensor or sensors installed and then some application on top of that | 01:53 |
Xabster | but i think the lm-sensor alone can tell you if it works at all | 01:53 |
malac0da | When I went to install 12.04 beta 2 i think it sounded like they were going to explode | 01:53 |

llvllatrix | my mini doesn't have a hard drive anymore | 02:01 |

Dr_willis | image a 11.04 iso to the sdcard and see if the bios can boot it. | 02:02 |

Zipl0ck | cowboydren, no. I use rsnapshots, but want to move etc into home dir before rsnapshots takes it | 02:06 |
cowboydren | Zipl0ck: I've never used rsnapshots | 02:06 |
cowboydren | why do you like it? | 02:06 |
malac0da13 | Argh amd ismessed up...whats the way to get rid of it again | 02:07 |
Zipl0ck | cowboydren, it does incremental backups and stores snapshots of filesystem over network | 02:07 |
cowboydren | Zipl0ck: I see. I think sbackup does that, too. | 02:07 |
cowboydren | I have a samba service on my WDTV Live Hub, so I can backup to that. :) | 02:08 |
cowboydren | Most of my data isn't important enough to keep, and that which is, fits in a free Dropbox account, so backup isn't something I put a lot of effort into. | 02:09 |

aJacom | Hi. Im running the installer right now and Im very confused with the partitioner. Could someone help me or guide me through a little bit? | 02:35 |
CFHowlett | aJacom sure what's the issue? | 02:35 |
MooNSpell | i dontknow much abt tht | 02:35 |
gr33n7007h | I tries iwconfig wlan2 txpower 10 but it doesn't work is there any other way | 02:35 |
aJacom | Thank you CFHowlett . I see /dev/sda divided into sda1, sda2, sda3, sda4. The large one is sda2 (ntfs), which holds the Windows 7. I think I read somewhere that Windows Loader has some trouble if you switch its order in the partition table, or something similar. Should I go and change the size of sda2 ? | 02:37 |
CFHowlett | aJacom here's what's going to happen; the most recently loaded OS will overwrite the previous OS. The OS will still be present. | 02:37 |
CFHowlett | aJacom ifor a normal dual boot, you would resize the windows partition and use the freed space to create an ubuntu partition - I'd say 20 gig minimum | 02:38 |
aJacom | CFHowlett: OK. Ill go for 80GB. Do I change some other parameter ? (Use as, Mount point) | 02:39 |
CFHowlett | aJacom most recently installed OS will overwrite the BOOT RECORD, not overwrite the OS. | 02:39 |
rodayo | I'm having an issue with my cursor speed. the vertical acceleration is higher than the horizontal making for some very awkward moments when trying to click on things. anyone know how i can fix this? | 02:40 |
aJacom | CFHowlett: Yes I figured thats what you meant. Although you scared me a little bit :P | 02:40 |
CFHowlett | aJacom I know. Sorry. | 02:40 |
aJacom | CFHowlett: I have a bit dropdown. Use as/ <Lists lots of filesystem types>. The default setting is <Do not use partition>. Do I just leave it or change it to NTFS (I-m resizing the Windows 7 NTFS now) | 02:42 |
cowboydren | I still can't find the stupid xconfig file... | 02:42 |

sacksniffer | The default partitioning settings should work for anyone, unless you are making a multi-boot situation | 02:43 |
aJacom | CFHowlett: Hmm. I think I-m not half way there yet. Sorry. I-m just resizing the main NTFS partition now. | 02:43 |
CFHowlett | aJacom one step at a time. Do your resizing - change nothing except the size at this point. | 02:44 |
aJacom | sacksniffer: I-m trying to make a dual boot, yes. And the default "Automatic" option wasn/t available for some reason. | 02:44 |
aJacom | Nothing except the size. Got ya. | 02:45 |
mydogsnameisrudy | how many partitions on your hd aJacom | 02:45 |
aJacom | mydogsnameisrudy: I can see 4. I know one is for HP Recovery. I know another is Windows 7, and I don-t know what are the other 2. | 02:45 |
aJacom | I didn.t know they where there. | 02:45 |
CFHowlett | aJacom note: resizing will cause windows to think it's broken and to request repair. It'll rewrite MBR information at that point. You'll need the repair/reinstall dvd | 02:46 |
CFHowlett | aJacom one of those is HP utilities IIRC | 02:46 |
mydogsnameisrudy | only can have 4 partitions | 02:46 |
aJacom | Yaicks. | 02:46 |
CFHowlett | aJacom paste a screenshot ... | 02:47 |

anonymous_ | thanks ubottu! | 02:54 |
bastidrazor | anonymous_: installing 'nvidia-current' is the normal method. | 02:54 |
gr33n7007h | sacarlson, ill try that now | 02:54 |
aJacom | CFHowlett: I found someone asking the same for my specific Netbook (DM1), but don-t leave me, I-m not sure that goes anywhere. http://whrl.pl/RcY18A | 02:54 |
CFHowlett | aJacom ok got the picture. for my triple boot osx, win7 and ubuntu, i deleted the recovery partition and utilities. You may not be that hardcore... | 02:54 |
aJacom | CFHowlett: I get it. It will be hard. | 02:55 |
CFHowlett | aJacom I'm mostly concerned by that "extra" partition ... | 02:55 |
gr33n7007h | wlan2 no private ioctls. | 02:55 |
aJacom | CFHowlett: No idea what is that. | 02:55 |
gr33n7007h | thanks though | 02:55 |
mydogsnameisrudy | there big partions for just tools or drivers | 02:55 |
CFHowlett | aJacom sda1 - boot, I think. sda2 = main windows partition, sda3 = recovery, sda4 = hp utilities??? | 02:56 |
aJacom | CFHowlett: http://whrl.pl/RcY18A | 02:56 |
CFHowlett | aJacom honestly, before you proceed with dual install I'd identify what those are. OR ... | 02:56 |
aJacom | CFHowlett: And how about I just go ahead and use Wubi to install it ? Will I burn too much ? | 02:57 |
CFHowlett | aJacom don't wubi. try virtualbox on your windows. if you've got 4+ gigs of ram, it should run pretty well. | 02:58 |
CFHowlett | wubi is for testing ubuntu, not long-term installation... | 02:58 |
aJacom | 2 GB. 1.6 Ghz. VirtualBox hardly even completes the installation without freezing. | 02:58 |
gr33n7007h | aJacom, fdisk -l to see which is boot flag | 02:59 |
mydogsnameisrudy | i would boot windows and look in partition 4 see whats there | 02:59 |
CFHowlett | aJacom if you have the hptools dvd, they can "presumeably" be resintalled. I keep my dell utilities on the dvd and did NOT installed... | 02:59 |
aJacom | gr33n7007h: And then, keep that one, and the big one? | 02:59 |
gr33n7007h | see which 1 is boot flag first the install on that | 03:00 |
CFHowlett | aJacom long story short, so long as you have all the HP media, you can kill the HP tools and free up a partition. if you | 03:00 |
stevenmeyer | Has anyone had any success installing ubuntu on a new lion computer? | 03:01 |
aJacom | Well. To be honest, I know that you can just kill those buggy things. Just as you can just wipe everything out. But I-m so fond of my Guarantee >( | 03:01 |
gr33n7007h | stevenmeyer, cant be done :/ | 03:01 |
fizk_ | Ubuntu r0cks | 03:02 |
fizk_ | that's all I have to say | 03:02 |
CFHowlett | aJacom exactly. recovery partition = base windows + all the HP tools installed. REcreating that is a pain but doable if necessary | 03:02 |

aJacom | CFHowlett: Well. What are the factual performance issues I may experience while using Wubi ? And, is there any real threat of memory damage or similar ? | 03:06 |
aJacom | Is it really so bad? | 03:06 |
gr33n7007h | stevenmeyer, im on backtrack awesomeness!! | 03:06 |
joh6nn | xangua: that seems only to cover upgrading to whatever kernel is most recent for the distro currently being used, or compiling a custom kernel | 03:08 |
joh6nn | i just want to take a kernel from a newer release, and install it on my kernel release, if possible | 03:09 |
CFHowlett | aJacom it'll run at almost native speeds. However, since the installation takes place in the windows environment, fragmentation can become an issue on the linux side. As a testing platform, wubi is great. long term use, no so much. no damage risks that I can think of. | 03:09 |

sacarlson | or = of | 03:10 |
aJacom | CFHowlett: And I suppose defragging doesn-t help much ? | 03:10 |
gr33n7007h | stevenmeyer, what wireless card you got | 03:11 |
Abhijit | does linux requires degragmentation? | 03:11 |
CFHowlett | aJacom I'd say go for it, expect diminishing returns and plan to install dual boot in fairly short order. Also, as you have limited ram, consider xubuntu or lubuntu. | 03:11 |
joh6nn | sacarlson: well, there are a couple of different ppas | 03:11 |
CFHowlett | Abhijit normally, no. | 03:11 |
joh6nn | the official one that i'm aware of is this: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ | 03:11 |
Abhijit | okey | 03:11 |
stevenmeyer | gre | 03:11 |
joh6nn | and the most recent kernel listed there is labeled as for precise. but i'm running oneiric | 03:12 |
stevenmeyer | gr33n7007h: the built in one | 03:12 |
CFHowlett | aJacom defragging windows has been known to kill wubi ubuntu ... | 03:12 |
gr33n7007h | on what | 03:12 |
aJacom | CFHowlett: Turns out the HP DM1 has a fairly good hard drive. 320 GB Serial-ATA (SATA) hard drive (7200 rpm). This may kick back some of the issues you pointed out, perhaps? | 03:12 |
stevenmeyer | gr33n7007h: macbook air brand new | 03:12 |
gr33n7007h | what distro you wanting to use | 03:13 |
stevenmeyer | 5r2 | 03:14 |
aJacom | CFHowlett: I.ll stop hassling you. A final thought> Xubuntu or Lubuntu?, could you recommend? | 03:14 |
gr33n7007h | works out of the box with the brcmsmac driver | 03:15 |
CFHowlett | aJacom quite likely. To be fair, wubi has improved considerably over time. "Testing platform" is the developer's description of it's intended purpose. | 03:15 |
stevenmeyer | i have a playbook and an ipad hanging around maybe i can load it on one of those | 03:15 |
stevenmeyer | what does? | 03:15 |
CFHowlett | aJacom either. both are optimized for lower spec/slower machines. | 03:15 |

stuntman_dan | yeah I know that, it's just annoying to have to do every time, and when I looked in preferences I didn't see anything in there... | 04:04 |
Xabster | stuntman_dan, XChat -> "Network List..." | 04:04 |
stuntman_dan | ejv, haven't tried irssi, is it pretty good? | 04:04 |
ejv | stuntman_dan: once you committ to learning the keybinds, you won't want to use anything else. | 04:04 |
stuntman_dan | Xabster, every time I change that it never seems to get saved, always reverts back to like it was the very first time I opened xchat | 04:05 |

abhisinghal | can any1 tel me how to learn linux | 04:05 |
ejv | abhisinghal: by reading documentation | 04:05 |
stuntman_dan | abhisinghal, get rid of all of your other operating systems and you will be forced to learn hehe | 04:05 |
ejv | abhisinghal: here's a good free book: http://rute.2038bug.com/node4.html.gz | 04:06 |
mi3 | funny...why do people ask directly on the ubuntu channel without searching on google? | 04:06 |
ejv | people are.... dense :) | 04:06 |
ejv | nah, people probably think we're experts in here; some are. | 04:06 |
Xabster | stuntman_dan, I think xchat only saves stuff when it's closed or when you click OK in preferences | 04:06 |
bmk1189 | (that awkward moment when no one knows how to help you... =/ ) | 04:06 |
mi3 | agreed, ejv | 04:07 |
Xabster | so try changing it, then go to preferences and just click OK, then close xchat and try again | 04:07 |
stuntman_dan | Xabster, alright lets see if it works! | 04:07 |
ejv | RUTE by Paul Sheer was invaluable to me during learning. Highly recommend it. (Not affiliated) | 04:07 |
stuntman_dan | Xabster, worked like a charm | 04:08 |
Xabster | \o/ | 04:08 |
stuntman_dan | it still opens the network list even though I have 'display network list' unchecked, but oh well. it's a good start haha | 04:08 |
Xabster | i have no idea why it doesn't save when you change stuff, it's pretty bad design | 04:08 |
stuntman_dan | yeah. I might give that irssi a shot but I've just been using xchat for a long time and it's familiar for the most part haha | 04:09 |
ejv | can't believe it's been 10 years since i read that tutorial, yet still applicable. | 04:10 |
c_smith | ejv, welcome to Linux. :P | 04:10 |
ejv | im embarrassed to say i haven't mastered it yet | 04:11 |
ejv | hopefully another 10 to 20 years | 04:11 |
stuntman_dan | ejv, we all have to start somewhere! | 04:11 |
stuntman_dan | and luckily there are a lot of geniuses here in the ubuntu channel | 04:11 |
c_smith | ejv, neither have I, but I'm pretty damn more proficient than I was 2 years ago. | 04:12 |
ejv | no one can claim absolute mastery; it's a magical goal we all aspire to. | 04:12 |
c_smith | true dat, but I still feel this discussion should be moved to #ubuntu-offtopic, as we are tying up the lines. | 04:13 |
stuntman_dan | linux is getting better and better at supporting stuff all the time | 04:13 |
=== fwaechter is now known as Guest21818 | ||

stuntman_dan | if enough people want something to work, then they team up and make it work! | 04:13 |
stuntman_dan | yeah offtopic is a good idea... haha | 04:14 |
ejv | we're way ahead of you stuntman_dan | 04:14 |
c_smith | meh, Wine, why do you have to be so difficult on making sound work properly? | 04:14 |
joshua__ | hola alguien sabe de openxava? | 04:17 |

mi3 | hey guys, my pc is unable to load after the dmi boot sequence if the SMART mode is enabled, it gives me a read error msg, but when I disable SMART, only then the grub loader opens, I have dual boot system, ubuntu and xp, any suggestions? | 04:24 |
=== dmogle is now known as Guest6584 | ||
bmk1189 | ubottu: gracias. Me uniré también a ese. | 04:24 |

bmk1189 | (that awkward moment... ) | 04:25 |
stuntman_dan | so I have 2 hard drives in this laptop, ssd for booting and a regular hd for storage | 04:26 |
stuntman_dan | but when I try to create a folder or copy files to the regular hd I'm not allowed because it belongs to root | 04:26 |
sacarlson | mi3: might try a live cd/usb boot and run disk utility to do diagnostics on the disk and partitions | 04:26 |
stuntman_dan | what would I have to do to give my user write access to it? | 04:27 |
mi3 | I did that and my disks are ok, sacarlson | 04:27 |
sacarlson | mi3: what tests did you run? | 04:27 |
=== malkauns_ is now known as malkauns | ||
mi3 | I just ran fschk sacarlson , and I did that SMART test from seagate seatools | 04:28 |
c_smith | stuntman_dan, chmod or chown? | 04:28 |
c_smith | terminal commands, just be careful with them. | 04:29 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, that sounds about right | 04:29 |
sacarlson | mi3: ok that's all I can think of without being distructive | 04:29 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, I've used it before a long time ago, just havent used linux in quite a while | 04:29 |
mi3 | err ok sacarlson , do you think its got something to do with grub loader? | 04:30 |
c_smith | chmod for permissions, chown for owner. ofc, you could go the gui way, which varies depending on DE. | 04:30 |
comgen | mi3 : disable smart hdd in bios, I recommend running mhdd http://hddguru.com/software/ , Spinrite and/or OEM disk util or similar | 04:30 |
c_smith | stuntman_dan, what DE are you using? | 04:30 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, the drive I'm wanting to change permissions on is sdb | 04:30 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, I'm using gnome classic | 04:31 |
sacarlson | mi3: I guess the grub loader is looking at bios smart results, I'm not sure | 04:31 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, would be nice if I could do it through the gui though, seems there are less mistakes made that way | 04:31 |
mi3 | any suggestions on stopping grub loader from doing that, sacarlson ? | 04:31 |
c_smith | gnome classic? then use this in Terminal: gksudo nautilus. just be sure to close that window when your done. | 04:32 |
sacarlson | mi3; sounds like you already did by disableing bios smart | 04:32 |
mi3 | yeah I did that right | 04:32 |
mi3 | I mentioned above that I disabled SMART and the grub loader loads | 04:32 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, alright I'll give that a shot thanks | 04:33 |
c_smith | stuntman_dan, no prob | 04:33 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, the drive doesn't show up in there, all I have is desktop and file system | 04:33 |
sacarlson | mi3: I guess at this point leave it disabled and keep a good file backup system running in the event it's not a false alarm | 04:33 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, would it be in dev/sdb? or something like that maybe? | 04:34 |
comgen | mi3 : fsck / e2fs checks filesystem only, smart is for detecting mechanical errors you might have a drive going bad, need to run OEM disk check util and/or similar , if you can boot into ubu you can run a smart diagnostic test as well but not repair | 04:34 |
c_smith | stuntman_dan, try mounting it in a seperate Nautilus session, then navigate to /media/ and it should be there. | 04:34 |
c_smith | stuntman_dan, brb | 04:34 |
mi3 | comgen, I ran SMART from seagate seatools, everything seems good for the hdd at the moment | 04:35 |
comgen | mi3 : then per sacarlson advice backup, keep smart disabled also check the 32bit drive access settings in the bios, toggle on/off might help | 04:36 |
mi3 | I dont have that 32 bit drive and all that I just left SMART disabled | 04:36 |
comgen | mi3 : do keep an eye on the drive from time to time, also I do not have 32bit on an older laptop yet I must have it enabled to boot <<-- go figure | 04:37 |
`Korvin | Hey, my mic isn't working on my laptop | 04:37 |

nif | help | 04:41 |
bmk1189 | istiaque: have you tried sudo apt-get install libreoffice? | 04:41 |
c_smith | stuntman_dan, I'm back, any luck? | 04:42 |
xangua | isitme: use the libreoffice PPA or get it from libreoffice.org | 04:42 |
nif | HELP | 04:42 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, well I am able to create folders, but I am having issues copying files off my nas now | 04:42 |
comgen | m13 : since the problem appears to be with the bios smart util I'd leave it off, since that works other option if you must have smart enabled is to try reinstalling grub2 from rescue live/cd or grub menu | 04:42 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, I notice a bunch of errors in the terminal window after using gksudo nautilus as well | 04:42 |
nif | --HELP | 04:43 |
c_smith | stuntman_dan, not sure what to say there. | 04:43 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, mainly about user share directories | 04:43 |
mi3 | comgen, what is the normal operating temperature of a hdd? | 04:43 |
c_smith | stuntman_dan, well, see if there is someone more knowledgeable on that here. | 04:44 |
stuntman_dan | mi3, the 4 drives in my NAS are all around 30 degrees if that helps any | 04:44 |
nif | --help | 04:44 |
comgen | m13 : what model of drive ? | 04:44 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, alright thanks | 04:44 |
c_smith | stuntman_dan, no prob, | 04:44 |
mi3 | stuntman_dan, my hdd temp is 45 degress C | 04:44 |
bmk1189 | istiaque: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libreoffice/ppa sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get install libreoffice. | 04:44 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, actually one question though, what would I have to do to just give my user write access to the drive? without having to use the terminal to open a root nautilus window every time? | 04:44 |
mi3 | comgen, seagate barracuda 160GB SATA 7200rpm | 04:44 |
nif | srry :( mistake | 04:45 |
SwedeMike | mi3: I'd recommend not running it over 45-50 degrees for longer periods of time. | 04:45 |
geek0091 | got a question, in ubuntu virtualization host, on the server edition, when installing a gui based distro like windows server 2003/8/NT...you get the idea, how do you preform the gui installation when connected through ssh? It may seem like a redundant question but I plan on virtualizing a server running ubuntu as the host os. No desktop installed only an ssh terminal. | 04:45 |
comgen | mi3 : also 32bit I ref. to is 32-bit Disk Access not arch type CPU | 04:45 |
stuntman_dan | mi3 wow that seems kinda high... would maybe depend on ambient temperature as well though? if the room you're in is really warm then that would affect it | 04:45 |
mi3 | ohh thats new, guys | 04:45 |
mi3 | ok, so I want to place a cooling fan, will that be enough to...you know...cool the hdd, or is it nearing the end of its lifecycle? | 04:46 |
c_smith | stuntman_dan, the easiest way I know of is through command line. and that was finding out what it's viewed as through the Disk Utility (such as /dev/sda#) and then using that to run chmod and chown. | 04:46 |
c_smith | any other way I know of is more frustrating. | 04:46 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, alright I'm pretty sure it's sdb or sdb1 or something like that, I'll read through the chmod help though, that'll be a good start hehe | 04:47 |
comgen | mi3 : maybe purchase a hard drive cooler or on the low/poorman tech end mount a spare case fan under or near the drive | 04:47 |
c_smith | stuntman_dan, it always helps to get at least a little proficient with cli in Linux. | 04:47 |
`Korvin | does anyone have any idea | 04:48 |
`Korvin | why my internal mic isn't being picked up by skype or google chat | 04:48 |
`Korvin | neither is an external mic | 04:48 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, yeah I know enough to navigate around and do a few things here and there but it's been a while. I don't mind the cli so much actually | 04:48 |
mi3 | comgen, so where near the drive? under it? on the side of it? should I place it on the steel above or near the circuit board? which part gets hot faster? | 04:48 |
comgen | mi3 : under if you can but anywhere near the drive should work | 04:49 |
mi3 | sounds good, comgen | 04:50 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, the drive is mounted at file:///media/3f5bce4c-930a-45f2-b6d6-e4cf705ee420.... that should be easy enough to type. hahahaha | 04:50 |
mi3 | comgen, do you think that high temp [45 C] will be giving me that read error when SMART was enabled? | 04:50 |
comgen | mi3 : also double check the cabling which sounds like you know your way around hardware and might have checked already, sata drives are not as bad, but IDE drives I've had connection issues in the past with <<-- overheating / power spikes | 04:51 |
c_smith | stuntman_dan, look for /dev/sd# or /dev/hd# or something similar, what you have is not what I was talking about, but something similar, should be listed somewhere along the lines of mount point in the Gnome Disk Utility. | 04:52 |
comgen | mi3 : 45 c ? depends on the temp alert setting of the bios | 04:52 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, yes the device is /dev/sdb1, but it is mounted in a strange way, not sure why it would have such a long random name like that | 04:52 |
mi3 | comgen, I have sata, hate IDE lol. my BIOS does not shows me the hdd temp, it only shows me the cpu temp, and that I think is 33 C | 04:53 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, it is mounted to /media/(that long random string of text) | 04:53 |
=== `mOOse` is now known as m00se | ||
mi3 | my current cpu temp is 33 C and hdd temp is 44 C, comgen | 04:53 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, I did chmod --help and I think what I would want to do would be something like chmod /dev/sdb1 -c, and then from there I am a little lost | 04:54 |
mi3 | comgen, you there? | 04:55 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, actually I think if I just do gksudo nautilus and go to the media folder, I should be able to right click on it and change the permissions that way, right? | 04:55 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, the media folder being the directory on that drive that I want to be able to copy stuff into | 04:55 |
comgen | mi3 : yes here sorry doing 24+ things at once tonight :-) mi3 give this a read : http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2006/12/hard-drive-temperatures-be-afraid.html | 04:55 |
mi3 | comgen, sounds interesting, let me read it.. | 04:56 |
mi3 | comgen, I have the front fan and it does it job well at cooling the sys, but I think my hdd is placed at quite a low level, so should I just raise the level? | 04:58 |
anternat | UBUNTU ROXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX | 04:59 |
dlentz | mi3, are you concerned because your hard disk is 45C? that's nothing to get alarmed about | 04:59 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, alright instead of using chmod in the cli I just opened nautilus as root and changed the permissions on the folder I want to copy into. works like a charm now, thanks! | 04:59 |
mi3 | dlentz, yes I am concerned with that, very much concerned | 05:00 |
c_smith | stuntman_dan, glad to see it worked out! :) | 05:00 |
stuntman_dan | c_smith, I should still probably learn how to use chmod at some point, but that can wait for another day hehe | 05:00 |
dlentz | mi3, you shouldn't be... | 05:00 |
mi3 | dlentz, I guess such high temp is causing me the smart errors, I get the "read error" when SMART is enabled, but when its disabled, the sys boots normally, I have dual boot os's | 05:01 |
dlentz | but 45c is not a high temp for a drive that's probably rated to >=60c | 05:02 |
mi3 | wow! | 05:03 |
mi3 | I have a seagate barracuda 160GB, is it supposed to run nicely at 45 C? | 05:04 |
Lirth | I'm trying to set a minor minecraft server on my ubuntu computer (just to test it out) and I was wondering how I'd do it. I don't know very much about setting up a server (including how to get my own IP address) and was hoping that someone would help. | 05:04 |
dlentz | mi3, have you ever looked at the spec sheet? | 05:04 |
mi3 | dlentz, this link surprises me, hope it surprises you as well http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2006/12/hard-drive-temperatures-be-afraid.html | 05:05 |
mi3 | err no... | 05:05 |
mi3 | dlentz, that link enlightened you or what? | 05:07 |
* dlentz is trying to find the google pdf study that debunks a lot of myths like that | 05:09 | |
comgen | mi3 : intended to give an general idea in regard to hdd temp, you're running warm thus I would attempt to cool it | 05:09 |
dlentz | http://wiki.mattrude.com/images/6/67/Google_disk_failures.pdf | 05:09 |

green_ | does ubuntu 12.04 still have unity? | 05:22 |
dlentz | green_, yes | 05:22 |
bouma | if i just have auto,user,noatime where does the user name even come from ? | 05:22 |
green_ | i assume unity is now standard? | 05:22 |
dlentz | green_, it's been standard since 11.04, and there are still plenty of other DE's to choose from too | 05:23 |
green_ | ok ty | 05:23 |

Goku283 | annoying. | 05:49 |
bobo37773 | eh it happens sometimes. | 05:50 |
bobo37773 | Goku283: Did you update your kernel before this started happening? | 05:51 |
dlentz | Goku283, have you tried xev to see if the clikc is registering? | 05:51 |
Goku283 | Im not 100% sure if the kernel was updated before it started, but it is possible.. | 05:51 |
Goku283 | how to use xev to check? | 05:51 |
scientes | Goku283, uname -a | 05:52 |
dlentz | Just ype xev in a terminal (assuming you have x11-utils package installed) | 05:52 |
scientes | just helped a person in #xorg on input issues :P | 05:52 |
Goku283 | 3.0.0.17 | 05:52 |
scientes | Goku283, apt-get install evtest | 05:52 |
scientes | Goku283, and compare the xev results with evtest | 05:52 |
bouma | how is the latest ubuntu? does it work well with xen? | 05:53 |
Goku283 | xev is not registering anything when pressing the left click | 05:53 |
bobo37773 | Goku283: You said that this mouse is working on some other machines you have. What kernel versions are on those machines? | 05:54 |
Goku283 | xev doesnt pick up anything when pressing left click | 05:54 |
Goku283 | Windows machines it works fine | 05:54 |
Goku283 | it was working fine previously aswell.. | 05:55 |
Goku283 | must of been an update that changed something?? | 05:55 |
bobo37773 | Goku283: It is a possibility. | 05:55 |
Goku283 | Is there like a safe mode in ubuntu? | 05:55 |
Goku283 | where it loads default drivers or something... lol? | 05:55 |
Goku283 | to test | 05:55 |
bobo37773 | not really. the drivers are in the kernel. Just install and load a different kernel if you want to test that. | 05:56 |
Goku283 | i c.. | 05:56 |
Goku283 | how to install different kernel than? have to reinstall ubuntu? | 05:56 |
bobo37773 | Goku283: No way. You can upgrade or downgrade your kernel any time without reinstalling through your package manager. Just look either in your repo or a 3rd party ppa if you want something newer | 05:58 |
Goku283 | eh? so how to roll back to a previous kernel now then? | 05:58 |
bobo37773 | Goku283: Is your old kernel still installed? Look in synaptic or software center or whatever they call it nowadays | 05:59 |
Goku283 | Ubuntu software centre? | 06:00 |
bobo37773 | yeah probably | 06:00 |
bobo37773 | Goku283: Here you go (hope this helps): http://askubuntu.com/questions/71139/how-to-downgrade-the-kernel-on-11-10 | 06:01 |
Goku283 | so hard to do anything without a working mouse!! | 06:01 |
bobo37773 | Goku283: At least you are still working in a gui hahahaha | 06:01 |
Goku283 | thx, ill check it out now | 06:01 |
Goku283 | lol | 06:01 |
Goku283 | yeh | 06:01 |
bobo37773 | Goku283: the "i386.deb" is for a 32 bit system. If you are running x86_64 then you will need to find a 64 bit one. | 06:03 |
Goku283 | yep | 06:04 |
Goku283 | Ah this is bullshit, im just going to re-install ubuntu. To hard to troubleshoot. using up my precious time for nothing. Theres one for the Developers. Fix this mouse issue !! | 06:05 |
Goku283 | anyway thanks guys | 06:05 |
bobo37773 | Goku283: If it is a kernel issue then talk to them. This is not something Ubuntu is responsible for | 06:05 |
urbancommando | hum something tells me Goku283 is not going to enjoy linux | 06:07 |

CFHowlett | HaiKaiDo do you get static even when sound is minimized/off? | 06:22 |

HaiKaiDo | and turn up the mic so i can hear it come out of my speakers when i talk | 06:22 |
HaiKaiDo | its clear as day with no static | 06:22 |
HaiKaiDo | but it seems like whenever its being processed through something like sound recorder or skype...the static shows up | 06:23 |
dbdii407 | I have a question. I just installed Ubuntu on a new hard drive and can´t seem to find/mount the old one. Any ideas? | 06:24 |
CFHowlett | HaiKaiDo so it's not the case that sound is screwy, it's something specific to the mic and only on *some* apps? | 06:24 |
HaiKaiDo | well any app it seems | 06:25 |
HaiKaiDo | anything that grabs the audio from the mic | 06:25 |
HaiKaiDo | static | 06:25 |
hybrid | _o_o_ oOo _o_o_ | 06:25 |
CFHowlett | HaiKaiDo if no other sound issues present, I'd be willing to bet it's a faulty mic hardware issue. | 06:25 |
HaiKaiDo | nope | 06:26 |
HaiKaiDo | i can boot into windows | 06:26 |
HaiKaiDo | and theres 0 issue | 06:26 |
* CFHowlett slams head against desk | 06:26 | |
HaiKaiDo | i can even use this mic on my laptop which also has ubuntu on it | 06:26 |
HaiKaiDo | and it works great | 06:26 |
HaiKaiDo | lol | 06:26 |
HaiKaiDo | so im stumped | 06:26 |

microp11|0123456 | elsa45: test | 06:27 |
HaiKaiDo | and so far the things ive tried are. installing the realtek audio driver from the realtek site for ALC889a | 06:27 |
HaiKaiDo | tried messing with ALSA config tools | 06:27 |
HaiKaiDo | and even tried sudo aptitude purge pulseaudio | 06:28 |
HaiKaiDo | and it didnt change anything | 06:28 |
wickedwiccan | Has anyone seen a gui kinda tool that allows people to make 2d mmorpgs windows has several of them that are cool to make small games to play with friends, but I havent seen any for linux | 06:28 |
HaiKaiDo | so i reinstalled pulseaudio | 06:28 |
scientes | wickedwiccan, you can run all the windows ones in linux with wined | 06:31 |
scientes | !wine | wickedwiccan | 06:31 |
ubottu | wickedwiccan: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 06:31 |
wickedwiccan | I know about wine they are glitchy, i was wondering if they were equilivants of them for linux | 06:31 |

HaiKaiDo | CFHowlett, | 06:38 |
HaiKaiDo | i just noticed something | 06:38 |
CFHowlett | HaiKaiDo ??? yes... | 06:38 |
HaiKaiDo | i did sudo aptitude install linux-alsa-driver-modules | 06:38 |
HaiKaiDo | and then it spit out a whole list of driver modules | 06:39 |
HaiKaiDo | but none of them matched my kernel version | 06:39 |
HaiKaiDo | so it would seem there is no alsa module for 2.6.32-40-generic | 06:39 |

cihan_ | can anybody suggest me a good resource for socket programming? i need it to create a connection between my home computer and the office computer. thanks =) | 06:52 |
Guest_ | I'm switching to Ubuntu (from win7) and was wondering if it is possible to make a backup of my windows drive INTO a vmware-like program for Ubuntu so I could still have access to it during the transition period? | 06:53 |
pengemis | does anyone know why lxde.org down? | 06:54 |
CFHowlett | Guest_ or install ubuntu into windows via virtualbox | 06:54 |
Guest_ | Would that enable me to completely phase out win7 over time? | 06:54 |
RedWar | Hey All, I need some help. I am using Ubuntu on this Pavillion DV 6 HP via virtualization,its great and everything not slow at all but would have preferred a dual boot option. There seems to be an issue with the Radeon driver. Does anyone have any idea if on the live cd, if they are actually at install going to include drivers to work with ATI radeon, without having to go through nomodeset and all that | 06:55 |
RedWar | nonesense? | 06:55 |
CFHowlett | Guest_ you could access both OS's and, when ready, install ubuntu only and completely switch over. | 06:55 |
RedWar | I am talking about like on 12 | 06:55 |
bekks | RedWar: After installing Ubuntu, you have to do that modeset stuff only once. | 06:56 |
Guest_ | On a related note, I have not used WINE in about 4 or so years. Has it gotten better and running windows programs? | 06:56 |
bekks | Guest_: It did 4 years ago, too. | 06:57 |
RedWar | bekks very true. I am very ignroant in regards to how that nomodeset works, and what it does exactly? Does it actually affect my firmware on my laptop, or is this just OS specific. | 07:00 |
bekks | RedWar: It is OS specific. | 07:00 |
CellTech | What's faster KDE or Gnome? | 07:00 |
bekks | CellTech: Depends on how you configure them. | 07:00 |
bekks | CellTech: And depends on your hardware. | 07:00 |
CellTech | I need faster! I'm sick of my computer slowing down after like 30min of use | 07:00 |
CellTech | Can I sped up swap or disk caching? | 07:01 |
RedWar | bekks well that is a consolation. I was hoping to hear however that cannonical would have included some sort of automatic fix for those of us using the quad core amd pavillion dv6 with the ATI Radeon graphics card though. | 07:01 |
pengemis | CellTech, i tried Kubuntu 11.10 with composition it's very heavy on low end machine | 07:01 |
CellTech | I'm on xubuntu and it's horrible | 07:02 |
bekks | CellTech: Add more RAM to your box so it doesnt have to swap. | 07:02 |
CellTech | I have more ram. And it's showing no difference at all | 07:02 |
bekks | RedWar: The quad core doesnt have anything to do with your ATI. | 07:03 |
pengemis | I think we need more gpu | 07:03 |
bekks | CellTech: So how much RAM do you have? | 07:03 |
CellTech | 768. My computer is older so it only holds 1gb max | 07:03 |
bekks | CellTech: Then max out that 1GB. | 07:03 |
CellTech | It's ddr. That stuff is hard to find | 07:04 |
RedWar | No I know.. I m mentioning the model bekks. I know that this has to do with the ATI Radeon | 07:04 |
RedWar | It would be great if they do add support for this laptop with an automatic workaround. It works perfectly inside of Virtualbox though. I just don't want to run this thing all the time, since it does effect power consumption drastically. I am running 64 bit version of 11.10 as guest | 07:05 |
CellTech | I would do a hard puppy instal but it hates trying to find my network | 07:06 |

bekks | RedWar: Inside vbox, you dont have an ATI graphics card - thats why it is working perfectly :) | 07:07 |

scientes | Al_nz1, you cant add wireless to a bridge cause there is no promiscuous mode for wireless devices! | 07:13 |

Al_nz1 | why cant I bridge wirelessly to my router? | 07:17 |

backtrackmobile | hi guys, have an happy easter! | 07:34 |
wickedwiccan | ah another holiday stolen from our ancestors yay | 07:34 |
haux | If I am booting directly into cli, how do I select between the "ubuntu session" and "xfce session" when I startx? | 07:35 |
backtrackmobile | i need a little help backuping a device with tar, can someone help me? i need to exclude from the tar, the mount point /mnt/data | 07:35 |
haux | Startxfce4 starts the xfce session... | 07:35 |
bekks | backtrackmobile: man tar, see the multiple options of the form --exclude | 07:36 |
backtrackmobile | yes i did it but it doesnt work | 07:36 |
auronandace | backtrackmobile: backtrack isn't supported here | 07:36 |
backtrackmobile | ? | 07:36 |
backtrackmobile | this is the command i did sudo tar -cvpzf /media/DATI/backup.tgz /mnt/data/* --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/mnt/data | 07:37 |
scientes_ | ping | 07:37 |
bekks | Then see --one-file-system :) | 07:37 |
=== pcg is now known as pcggone | ||
abhisinghal | yiiiiii | 07:38 |
bekks | And it makes no sense to exclude /mnt/data when mnt/data is being tared. | 07:38 |
backtrackmobile | it has sense | 07:39 |
backtrackmobile | becouse | 07:39 |
bekks | backtrackmobile: First of all - are you using backtrack or Ubuntu? | 07:39 |
backtrackmobile | i mounted a DD image on /mnt/data, but the backup has to have just the /mnt/data/* and not all the mount point path | 07:40 |
backtrackmobile | ubuntu | 07:40 |
backtrackmobile | :D | 07:40 |
bekks | So the answer is "backtrack", which your user indicates too. | 07:40 |
scientes_ | backtrackmobile, tar -cJvf | 07:41 |
haux | Can someone tell me how to start the "xubuntu session" from cli? | 07:41 |
scientes_ | backtrackmobile, and --one-file-system is great | 07:41 |
backtrackmobile | with -p to to preserve ownership no? | 07:41 |
scientes_ | oh yeah | 07:41 |
bekks | scientes_: That doesnt help from storing relative path names only. | 07:41 |
scientes_ | the J does xz compression instead of gz | 07:42 |
backtrackmobile | thx u made my easter :D | 07:42 |
bekks | When specifying /mnt/data, that IS an absolute path name. The behaviour is intended. | 07:42 |
scientes_ | bekks, ahh, i always just cd's into the directory i wanted | 07:42 |
=== irdx is now known as irdxafk | ||
bekks | Then you have to use . instead of a path name, too. | 07:43 |
scientes_ | but i can see you would want relative so you could squash various things together | 07:43 |
backtrackmobile | ok but if i cd, i need to specific all the path becouse tar doesnt accept the current position, or not? | 07:43 |
bekks | Read what we just wrote please ;) | 07:44 |
backtrackmobile | i'm confused | 07:44 |
bekks | tar ... /mnt/data vs. cd /mnt/data; tar ... . | 07:44 |
scientes_ | backtrackmobile, i think you need to read up on basic UNIX stuff, like path-names and permissions | 07:44 |

ubottu | nlici: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 07:54 |

auronandace | !checkinstall | demonboy | 07:56 |
ubottu | demonboy: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 07:56 |
backtrackmobile | can someone help me ? | 07:57 |

demonboy | hang on | 08:03 |
backtrackmobile | help meeee tarrr nightmare | 08:03 |
backtrackmobile | :D | 08:04 |
Ben64 | backtrackmobile: man tar | 08:04 |
backtrackmobile | ben i did it | 08:04 |
backtrackmobile | but i need an expert | 08:04 |
bluefrog | backtrackmobile, you're on a live session? | 08:04 |
Ben64 | manual = expert | 08:04 |
demonboy | this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/55848/how-do-i-install-oracle-java-jdk-7 is the guide i followed... its the very first one with 68 reps | 08:05 |
backtrackmobile | tar -cvpzf /media/DATA/mntdata.tar /mnt/data <<< i need to exclude the /mnt/data path, becouse is an optfs backup | 08:05 |
demonboy | and note tht " sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/javac" "javac" "/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0/bin/javac" 1 " <-- that command would not work | 08:06 |
demonboy | but the other 2 commands on the "Run" section did | 08:06 |
backtrackmobile | Ben thx u are a genius | 08:06 |
backtrackmobile | but i just need the right command no more | 08:07 |
Ben64 | so you want to make a tar of nothing? | 08:07 |
backtrackmobile | no | 08:07 |
Ben64 | <backtrackmobile> tar -cvpzf /media/DATA/mntdata.tar /mnt/data <<< i need to exclude the /mnt/data path, becouse is an optfs backup | 08:08 |
backtrackmobile | just a tar of /mnt/data/* | 08:08 |
Ben64 | but you want to exclude it | 08:08 |
bluefrog | backtrackmobile, i need to exclude the /mnt/data path, becouse is an optfs backup | 08:08 |
backtrackmobile | just the path in the tar | 08:08 |
bluefrog | backtrackmobile, well anyway do you have the right to write in media/DATA ? | 08:09 |
Ben64 | demonboy: "sudo update-alternatives --config java" should let you choose a different version | 08:09 |
demonboy | there were 3 commands on that guide but tht command would not work | 08:09 |
=== Rabbit67890 is now known as RainbowDashh | ||
demonboy | they were the ones under group | 08:10 |
demonboy | run* | 08:10 |
backtrackmobile | if i create the backup, it makes the /mnt/data path on it, but i just want to have the files that are in /mnt/data/ becouse they must be unpacked with no /mnt/data/ path. | 08:10 |
demonboy | Ben64: http://askubuntu.com/questions/55848/how-do-i-install-oracle-java-jdk-7 that is the page with the guide | 08:11 |
demonboy | its the very 1st one with 68 reps | 08:11 |
Ben64 | demonboy: yeah i saw that the first time, sudo update-alternatives --config java will let you choose another version to run | 08:11 |
demonboy | i followed it to a T... kinda hard not to do... and that command i listed wouldnt run | 08:11 |
backtrackmobile | example, if i have /mnt/data/folder i want to tar just the /mnt/data/folder in a tar, that opened has not the /mnt/data/folder path, but just the /folder | 08:12 |
bluefrog | backtrackmobile, issue the command form the /mnt/data | 08:12 |
demonboy | Ben64: my question isnt about the install that is just listed to help yal understand how i did it... i want it gone so i can install open 6 | 08:13 |
backtrackmobile | how? | 08:13 |
bluefrog | backtrackmobile, cd tmp; tar -cf somewhereelse.tar * | 08:14 |
Ben64 | demonboy: like i've said twice, "sudo update-alternatives --config java" will let you choose a different version | 08:14 |
demonboy | Ben64: i have no other versions installed | 08:14 |
haux | Can someone tell me how to start the "xubuntu session" from cli? | 08:14 |
demonboy | and the java 7 willnot let me install any other versions | 08:14 |
Ben64 | then install a version from synaptic/apt-get | 08:14 |
backtrackmobile | u saved my life! | 08:14 |

klmmlk | I can't | 08:47 |
Xtreme | demonboy: try java room. i am sure they will help. no offence | 08:47 |
klmmlk | its java. the best way to use java is "aptitude remove java" because java is only a eating-memory machine specificaly designed to burn computers. | 08:48 |

gr33n7007h | Caitlin889955> System >> Preferences >> Mouse | 10:04 |
bluefrog | Mammodreoci_, if you don't have windows install files and stuggling so much only for a game, install windows8 consumer prview and play diablo on it. you will be a ll legit then | 10:05 |
Mammodreoci | slavsan had a Disconnect when u wrote something | 10:05 |
slavsan | Mammodreoci: I don't think you can just skip GRUB. Maybe someone else might have a solution for this but I believe your Windows MBR is wiped out or something. I'm not sure what this reset actually did but it seems it f**ked up GRUB in some way. The only solution I see is to install ubuntu on sda4. If it already is on sda4 and grub loads from there try to mount sda4 and reset GRUB. | 10:08 |

Gorilla_No_Baka | prixon | 10:33 |
Gorilla_No_Baka | prixon use sudo apt-get install -y --force-yes | 10:34 |
`prixon | so "sudo apt-get install -y --force-yes ubuntu-restricted-extras"? | 10:34 |
Gorilla_No_Baka | that would be the idea assuming you have all the rpositories added and uncomented | 10:35 |

`prixon | why wouldn't it work from the software center? | 10:39 |

`prixon | had I tried it from synaptic, would it work flawlessly? | 10:40 |

Gorilla_No_Baka | the software center is more conerned with diverting you (in the mac osx purest style) to some stupid center where you can download NOT whatever they think you might want.. nice on paper.. failed in reality | 10:41 |
Gorilla_No_Baka | the best is to do it from terminal.. and since you are at it delete the bloody software center bollocks and install g-debi which works eonders | 10:42 |

z0rn3nt | I have been having troubles with the linker in ubuntu. I am trying to compile a package and i often get undefined reference errors. | 12:12 |
auronandace | z0rn3nt: what package? | 12:12 |
z0rn3nt | dfu-programmer | 12:12 |
auronandace | !info dfu-programmer | z0rn3nt | 12:13 |
ubottu | z0rn3nt: dfu-programmer (source: dfu-programmer): device firmware update (DFU) based USB programmer for Atmel chips. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.1-1 (oneiric), package size 26 kB, installed size 96 kB | 12:13 |
auronandace | z0rn3nt: whats wrong with the one in the repo? | 12:13 |
z0rn3nt | also happened with a project i dev, someone added some stuff and changed the .am and it broke the build for me | 12:14 |
z0rn3nt | that is the correct package | 12:14 |
z0rn3nt | ok, installing dfu-programmer from repo | 12:15 |
auronandace | z0rn3nt: always a good idea to check the repo before compiling | 12:16 |
z0rn3nt | but this is still a problem i am getting often during compilations, and I have to determine how to get it to link manually | 12:16 |
z0rn3nt | yeah, I come from gentoo on my desktop, I just put ubuntu on my new laptop to try it out | 12:17 |
z0rn3nt | i used arch before on my laptop | 12:17 |
auronandace | z0rn3nt: if you are going to compile you may want to use checkinstall too | 12:17 |
auronandace | !checkinstall | z0rn3nt | 12:17 |
ubottu | z0rn3nt: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 12:17 |
auronandace | z0rn3nt: i'm still using arch now, my favourite (but i have no experience compiling sorry) | 12:18 |
z0rn3nt | I still think the problem i am having is with the linker | 12:18 |
z0rn3nt | it builds fine on most everyone elses setup | 12:19 |
z0rn3nt | just not mine | 12:19 |
z0rn3nt | i just dont want to spend time always fixxing linking issues | 12:19 |
=== xyz is now known as untitlednickname | ||
z0rn3nt | checkinstall is what you would use after compiling | 12:20 |
z0rn3nt | i understand how installation procedures work, and what checkinstall does | 12:20 |
z0rn3nt | thank you for telling me about it though, I will start using it to install custom builds | 12:21 |

backtrackmobile | i mean translate words with spaces, i dont want to edit the binary file | 12:27 |
iceroot | z0rn3nt: first off all, why you want to comile yourself the stuff? | 12:27 |
MonkeyDust | backtrackmobile the 'sed' command repaces character | 12:28 |

backtrackmobile | translation file is | 12:29 |

z0rn3nt | I am pretty sure it is, I can send you the discourse I had with our code maintainer if you want | 12:29 |
backtrackmobile | thx iceroot! | 12:29 |
iceroot | z0rn3nt: then the target-package for the bug would be gcc? | 12:30 |

JelloPop | ActionParsnip: Have user in Linux Mint running gnome 3 with similar issue could get gtk+ to install.. I thought seen it uninstall app when watching gnome 3 run up with gmp or something else | 15:39 |

ActionParsnip | Xtreme: just: unp filename | 15:40 |

ActionParsnip | Xtreme: shasum the file you downloaded so that you know it is complete and consistent | 15:43 |
Xtreme | how to? | 15:43 |
ActionParsnip | coilbucker: you can use dd to make an image of the partition on the storage | 15:43 |
ActionParsnip | Xtreme: go find out | 15:44 |
coilbucker | The drives no longer show up in /media. Where would they be located? | 15:45 |
ActionParsnip | coilbucker: try: mount | 15:45 |
Xtreme | ActionParsnip: missmatch.. redownload? | 15:45 |
ActionParsnip | Xtreme: yes, the file is corrupted | 15:45 |
ActionParsnip | Xtreme: thats why SHASUM and MD5SUM exists.... | 15:46 |
coilbucker | You mean remount the drives? | 15:46 |

L3top | dd if a character is out of place can absolutely ruin things. It is often nicknamed disk destroyer. | 16:09 |
Xtreme | sacarlson: i went to its website, i downloaded the file, which was currupted first. then i redownloaded, extracted and following their tutorial work to work i ran configure command | 16:09 |
sacarlson | Xtreme: you just need to install the -dev files of gtk+ to add the needed header files to compile and link to them | 16:09 |
Xtreme | which was successfull, then they said just to type "make" | 16:09 |

sacarlson | Xtreme: did you look at glade ? it's links into the gtk+ libs for c++ or many other programing languages | 16:13 |

Dr_willis | a single deb. may not get updated depending on what repos it came from. | 16:17 |

Dr_willis | loganrun, with nvidia - you most likely want to use the nvidia drivers and be sure to enable twinview, then reboot/restart X and maxing apps should only max to a single monitor | 16:23 |

funnyhaha | how do i stop a program and make it so it does not start up again | 16:25 |
asd2012 | first of all i want to know that is there any way that i can install software in Ubuntu graphically? | 16:25 |
bekks | funnyhaha: Depends on which program you are talking about and how it is started. | 16:25 |
asd2012 | is it possible | 16:25 |
ActionParsnip | asd2012: well we don't know the chip yet so we can't possibly advise in any way | 16:25 |

bekks | funnyhaha: Then just configure what you need in /etc/network/interfaces | 16:28 |
ActionParsnip | asd2012: search dash for it | 16:28 |
bekks | funnyhaha: nm will notice it and dont touch the manually configured interfaces. | 16:28 |

Dr_willis | that really doesnt clear much up. :) | 16:32 |

`prixon` | anyone here has an experience with intel HD 3000 graphics card. does it function good with ubuntu 11.10 and can it function with an external monitor? | 16:35 |
asd2012 | and i am a newbie | 16:35 |
wylde | Xabster: to start with get a lamp setup 'taksel' and choose LAMP from the menu. | 16:36 |
Xabster | what's a taksel? | 16:36 |
Xtreme | guys, to install a software.. this are the procedure. 1) extract, 2)./configure 3)make 4)make install right? | 16:36 |
asd2012 | what is taksel | 16:36 |
whoever | anyone here code java , if so is 7 good or is it still with bugs | 16:36 |
ActionParsnip | asd2012: run a terminal with CTRL+ALT+T and run: lsusb which is LSUSB in lower case, its nothing hard at all | 16:36 |
Xabster | whoever, it's good | 16:37 |
ActionParsnip | asd2012: just because you are using the keyboard doesn't mean it's hard | 16:37 |
wylde | Xabster: it's an ncurses app that lets you select some general packages groups for specific tasks, like a LAMP Linux-Apache_Mysql_PHP server. | 16:37 |
whoever | Xabster: ok thx | 16:37 |
Xabster | wylde: what is ncurses? :) | 16:37 |
DinoBirdEggs | Just wanted to thank MonkeyDust for recommending remastersys. Worked perfectly. I had to find a different repository than the one that was listed on the link you gave me. | 16:37 |
asd2012 | i am in Windows 7 | 16:37 |
ActionParsnip | asd2012: the command will outpupt some text, copy and paste it to a text file (again NOTING hard there) and save it to a USB memory stock, or copy it to your Windows partition (again not hard) | 16:37 |
wylde | Xabster: run tasksel and you'll see. | 16:37 |
ActionParsnip | asd2012: | 16:37 |
asd2012 | CTRL+ALT+T does not working | 16:37 |
Xabster | wylde, oh that's a command - I see | 16:38 |
L3top | Depends on the program Xtreme... but typically yes. | 16:38 |
ActionParsnip | asd2012: you NEED to be in UNUNTU, Your crappy Windows7 OS is not useful right now as it cannot get the detail we need | 16:38 |
whoever | Xabster: also is there a quick brack down of the enhancement of 7 over 6, all i know about is the ability to now be able to use strings in case instead of haveing to put them in an enum | 16:38 |
ActionParsnip | asd2012: I have repeatedly said you need to be in Ubuntu and CTRL+ALT+T does nothing in Windows, so Why are you trying Linux shortcuts in Windows? | 16:38 |
Xabster | whoever, read a java 7 release note or ask in ##java | 16:39 |
blnk | are there any grub2 or remote desktop gurus in here? | 16:39 |
asd2012 | yes u r absolutely right | 16:39 |

Xabster | wylde, I have tasksel running now but there are no mysql or apache options | 16:40 |
DinoBirdEggs | I did this. ~$gedit /etc/apt/sources.list | 16:40 |
Xabster | or is LAMP the collection you were talking about? | 16:40 |
wylde | Xabster: there's an option that specifically says "LAMP" in the description | 16:40 |
Xabster | right there is | 16:40 |
blnk | first question is: is it possible to get windows safe mode in the grub2 menu? | 16:40 |
=== tikfreenode is now known as Tiktalik | ||
Xabster | and that is a package with the basic stuff i asked for? | 16:40 |
DinoBirdEggs | then I added #Remastersys | 16:40 |
DinoBirdEggs | deb http://www.geekconnection.org/remastersys/repository karmic/ to my repository | 16:40 |
ActionParsnip | blnk: you'll need to boot windows and immediately perss F8 | 16:41 |
bekks | blnk: No, because the selection of the windows safe mode is done right after windows is normally started. by pressing F8 (IIRC). | 16:41 |
L3top | DinoBirdEggs: be sure that the version the user is on | 16:41 |
blnk | okay, thanks | 16:41 |
wylde | Xabster: yes, it will install Apache(webserver) MySQL(database server) and PHP ( php scripting support) | 16:41 |
blnk | I'm also wondering how I can do remote desktop over the internet. I'm able to get it working fine on the same network right now | 16:42 |
asd2012 | is there any easy way that i can understood how to use my newly purchased BSNL EVDO Card in newly installed Ubuntu 11.04 DVD iso ? | 16:42 |

carsten_db | i just installed xbmcbuntu, but my problem is not really related to xbmc. i installed lxde as a "normale" DE for config/admin purposes. now the display is larger than the screen (cannot see panel, etc) and would like to configure that. i stumbled upon "margins" in obconf, but this is not quite what I want. where can I configure that? | 16:42 |
wylde | Xabster: it will install the most recent versions in the repos | 16:43 |
blnk | I did some reading about it and I found something about going through a ssh server? | 16:43 |
asd2012 | which is the best way that i can learn Ubuntu | 16:43 |
Xabster | great, appreciate it wylde | 16:43 |
bekks | blnk: Tunneling through an SSH connection is possible, yes. | 16:43 |
ActionParsnip | asd2012: using the OS | 16:43 |
L3top | carsten_db: that is an overscan issue. Without a custom modline or a tv that will change its overscan options it will simply appear that way | 16:43 |
wylde | Xabster: no problem, glad to help :) | 16:43 |
blnk | bekks: would that make it any more secure? | 16:43 |

wylde | Xabster: I beleieve apache is run as the www-data user, so www-data has to have at least read permissions of the files you want to serve | 17:31 |
Xeneth | dougl, you should be able to do that from the software center. You want the latest, there is likely a repository somewhere with it. | 17:32 |

dj_segfault | coolpro: The most direct command line way to do it is with the dd command. Do you want to copy all the partitions? | 20:27 |
scientes | coolpro, gparted can do it | 20:27 |
scientes | coolpro, and with gparted you can resize it down first, so you dont waste time copying zeros | 20:27 |
sivik | does anyone know the url for a fix for grub: incomptable license after install of 11.10 | 20:29 |
ActionParsnip | dj_segfault: http://www.unixmen.com/thunderbird-11-has-been-released-ppa-ubuntu-11-10-linuxmint/ | 20:29 |
scientes | sivik, grub-install | 20:29 |
sivik | from grub rescue> | 20:29 |
scientes | sivik, update-grub + grub-install, but mainly just grub-install | 20:29 |
ActionParsnip | dj_segfault: ALWAYS try and find a PPA | 20:29 |
coolpro | I basically have installed Ubuntu on a HDD of 40GB with all the default selections while installing the latest version of Ubuntu. I am gonna buy a new HDD and I want to have EVERYTHING that I have now on my new HDD, because I will return the current 40GB HDD to my friend. | 20:29 |
sivik | scientes, how do I do that from grub rescue command prompt? | 20:30 |
ActionParsnip | coolpro: I'd just do a clean install then restore userdata from backup | 20:30 |
scientes | sivik, that is from ubuntu, like a live cd, with grub-install --boot-directory | 20:30 |
dj_segfault | ActionParsnip: Yes, I know 10.04 is old, but I have about 5 computers I would have to update at the same time (because they all use MythTV and I use unison a lot they all need to be on the same version) so I need a full weekend for that. | 20:30 |
haux | ActionParsnip, xubuntu.desktop shows the exec to be startxfce4. Unfortunately, startxfce4 starts the xfce session. | 20:30 |
sivik | scientes, alright. | 20:30 |
scientes | sivik, what im saying is that maybe your grub didn't get updated along with ubuntu | 20:30 |
sivik | or install and thats probably because of the issue with my network card | 20:31 |
ActionParsnip | haux: no options and such? | 20:31 |
dj_segfault | coolpro: That will really only work if the drives are the same size, and I doubt you're going to buy another 40GB. | 20:31 |
coolpro | ActionParsnip: How do I do a backup on Ubuntu? | 20:31 |
dariebi_ | hi all, could somebody tell me how i can see quellcode of my installed system | 20:31 |
brianp1992 | ok i installed the flash now how can i get chrome to reconise it? | 20:31 |
scientes | sivik, networking is almost 100% a differn't problem | 20:31 |
dj_segfault | coolpro: You're much better off installing fresh | 20:31 |
scientes | coolpro, there is a backup program in system settings | 20:31 |
ActionParsnip | coolpro: copy what you want backing up to an external storage | 20:32 |
sivik | scientes, yes I know, thats not what I mean | 20:32 |
haux | ActionParsnip, I'm not sure what you mean by options. But both xubuntu.desktop and xfce.desktop show exec=startxfce4, which nothing else after it | 20:32 |
coolpro | dj_segfault: yes, the size will be different, I am gonna get a 1TB HDD | 20:32 |
ActionParsnip | haux: dang | 20:33 |
dj_segfault | coolpro: If you copy the entire image over, you'll only be able to use 40G of it. That's one of the big downsides of image backups. | 20:33 |
computerx | Can someone tell me what package, site etc the util "rename" comes from? I want it on a Gentoo installation, but it only has the bad standard linux util version. | 20:33 |
curiousx | brianp1992: go to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfNQOOr9aR8 and see if flash works | 20:34 |
ActionParsnip | computerx: try: dpkg -S rename | 20:34 |
dj_segfault | coolpro: I would do what ActionParsnip says and use a backup program, or just back up home and transfer it over. Alternately, install onto the new drive, hook up the other drive at the same time temporarily, and copy what you want from it. | 20:34 |
* Bainos is back (gone 03:08:54) | 20:35 | |
computerx | ActionParsnip, It's not obvious from the response. Do you have any other suggestions? | 20:35 |
computerx | ActionParsnip, No, wait. Looks like rename is symlinked to prename | 20:36 |
coolpro | Okay, I don't have much. I actually have Skype, Google Chrome, Apache+Mysql+Php+phpmyadmin and webmin install and configured in the way I want it to run. That's all I made after installing Ubuntu. And I want to have it onto my new HDD when I have it | 20:36 |
L3top | coolpro you can resize the image. | 20:36 |
auronandace | !webmin | 20:37 |
ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. | 20:37 |
dj_segfault | coolpro: Moving over your home directory should take care of all of that | 20:37 |
coolpro | dj_segfault: Thank you for helping me! :) | 20:38 |
dj_segfault | coolpro: No problemo. Good luck on your supersizing. | 20:38 |

brianp1992 | wylde, its alredy installed, how do i use it lol | 20:41 |
wylde | brianp1992: easiest way, is to mkae a directory in your home eg. /home/username/mynetmedia , the run djmount /home/username/mynetmedia it should see your upnp server and mount it there. | 20:41 |
brianp1992 | ok | 20:42 |
wylde | brianp1992: then you cvan open the files as if they were on a local filesystem, but they will be streamed over the network. | 20:42 |

brianp1992 | wylde, so you would recomend rhythmbox for large media libarys? | 20:48 |
=== Zorro is now known as Guest76420 | ||
wylde | brianp1992: most audio players should work just like they're getting the media from a local directory. I haven't run into one that didn't work yet. | 20:49 |

luxx | hey all, any idea how to remove all the web browsers from my system? | 21:25 |
scientes | luxx, see what provides x-www-browser | 21:25 |
luxx | when I use apt-get purge, it just goes in a merrygoround of removing one and installing another | 21:25 |
luxx | how do I do that? | 21:25 |
scientes | luxx, thats cause you have a metapackage isntalled | 21:25 |
luxx | cool do you know which one? | 21:26 |
scientes | luxx, you just have to remove "ubuntu-desktop" metapackage prob | 21:26 |
luxx | ok will try | 21:26 |
robotam | hello , i am trying to mout a external hdd on ubuntu that was made for mac and pc | 21:26 |
luxx | I'm on lubuntu so I'll remove lubuntu-desktop | 21:26 |
robotam | cound some one help me with mounting an external hdd? | 21:27 |
luxx | scientes, removing lubuntu-desktop hasn't fixed it | 21:28 |
luxx | any other suggestions? | 21:28 |
luxx | please don't make me go crying back to arch | 21:28 |
scientes | dpkg -r, instead of apt-get remove | 21:28 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: its only a metapackage so removing it does nothing | 21:28 |
luxx | I just want a desktop without a web browser | 21:28 |
scientes | luxx, why not just use epiphany | 21:29 |
scientes | its pretty cut down and doens't really have dependancies | 21:29 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: run: dpkg -l | egrep -i 'chrom|firefox|opera' | 21:29 |
luxx | ActionParsnip I know, but then after removing it I tried to remove epiphany, and once again it tried to install firefox | 21:29 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: if you use lubunt then uninstall chromium-browser | 21:29 |
robotam | whats epiphany? | 21:29 |
luxx | scientes I want a system without any web browser | 21:29 |
ActionParsnip | robotam: a webkit based web browser | 21:29 |
luxx | ActionParsnip try reading my original question | 21:29 |
scientes | luxx, well i said, if you use dpkg -r it might tell you the offending metapackage | 21:29 |
luxx | ok thanks | 21:30 |
scientes | luxx, but to be honest, alot of software requires ANY web browser, so it might not work | 21:30 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: I believe if you install lynx or similar it should be ok.I've had Ubuntu install epiphany if you pull out it's browser, it's weird | 21:30 |
luxx | oh man it is gecko-mediaplayer that has the web browser dependency | 21:31 |
sw | luxx: a lot of packages install a web browser, so if you're removing all web browsers from your system, you'll probably have a hard time keeping it that way in the future | 21:31 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: you could pin the version of epiphany and remove firefox. That'll show it :) | 21:31 |
robotam | i need help mounting an external hard drive made for mac | 21:31 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: ahhhh | 21:31 |
ActionParsnip | !hfs | robotam | 21:31 |
ubottu | robotam: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | 21:31 |
luxx | sw scientes it's more than possible to have a functional system without a web browser. my arch system has been like that for about a year until I tried ubuntu yesterday | 21:31 |
scientes | luxx, well then install lynx or w3m, and that way you wont be bothered | 21:32 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: it can have no web browser, install minimal and install openbox, no web browser will be installed.... | 21:32 |
scientes | luxx, also, you need to turn off automatic recommends installation | 21:32 |
scientes | luxx, because the default is to install SOME software that isn't strictly required, but recommended to get the most out of software | 21:32 |
sw | luxx: I didn't say it wasn't | 21:33 |
scientes | ^^^ | 21:33 |
luxx | I know that it is sensible to have a web browser installed | 21:33 |
luxx | but it strikes me as odd that it makes it so hard to remove it | 21:33 |
luxx | it's almost like windows with ie lol | 21:33 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: why is it so impertive to not have a browser? | 21:33 |
scientes | luxx, and for that reason you arn't going to get anywhere without turning off automatic recommends installation | 21:33 |
scientes | luxx, but after that, yes you can probably do without a browser | 21:33 |
scientes | luxx, you also might have to remove the "lxde" metapackage | 21:34 |
luxx | but anyway removing lubuntu-desktop and gecko-mediaplayer seems to have done the trick | 21:34 |
ActionParsnip | scientes: lxde isn't a metapackage | 21:34 |
ActionParsnip | !info lxde | 21:34 |
ubottu | lxde (source: lxde-common): Meta-package for the Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.0-4ubuntu3 (oneiric), package size 5 kB, installed size 36 kB | 21:34 |

scientes | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ | 21:34 |
scientes | haha | 21:34 |
ActionParsnip | scientes: sorry dude | 21:34 |
luxx | I have uninstalled all three browsers | 21:34 |
luxx | after uninstalling lubuntu-desktop and gecko-mediathingy | 21:35 |
luxx | thanks to whoever suggested the dpkg command | 21:35 |
luxx | that sorted it | 21:35 |
Akls | Hello. I have wireless connection (my internet) and wired connection(lan). whenever I set an IP for wired connection, it tries to use it for internet(but there's no internet on lan) and fails. How can I workaround? I'd like to use some GUI way. I'm on lubuntu. | 21:35 |
scientes | that was me luxx :P | 21:35 |
luxx | thanks | 21:35 |
luxx | ! | 21:35 |
luxx | ActionParsnip this is for my 'work only' virtualbox installation, so I don't want anything unproductive on there | 21:36 |
ActionParsnip | Akls: can you ping 8.8.8.8? | 21:36 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: i'd have definately started with minimal then :) | 21:36 |
Akls | ActionParsnip, yes. wtf is this IP? :D | 21:36 |
ActionParsnip | Akls: then run: echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf > /dev/null | 21:37 |
luxx | ActionParsnip sure - but I don't like installing login managers from scratch | 21:37 |
ActionParsnip | Akls: then try the web | 21:37 |
luxx | ActionParsnip that always seems to go wrong for me | 21:37 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: sudo apt-get install slim will do it, or you can bypass that and run the startx command via /etc/rc.local ;) | 21:37 |
robotam | can some one help me mount my external hdd? | 21:37 |
luxx | ActionParsnip yeah I tried that before, but I'm a bit wary because installing gdm fucked up my arch system before. I like having a login manager because it makes it easier to automount volumes | 21:38 |
robotam | when i try to change the filesystem and do fdisk /dev/sdb2 there are no partitions with filesystems to change | 21:38 |
tekonivelo | if i wanted to automajically install a downloaded .deb -file (not from the Archives), and install it's dependencies too, is there other tool that gdebi (which doesn't install by default)? | 21:39 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: surely fstab does that as well as udev etc? | 21:39 |
Akls | ActionParsnip, wait. I can ping 8.8.8.8 when I disabled my configuration for lan. now, when it's set up, I can't ping it | 21:39 |
scientes | Akls, that ip is google | 21:39 |
tekonivelo | i'm working on a juju charm | 21:39 |
scientes | Akls, but routed by level 3 | 21:39 |
ActionParsnip | tekonivelo: install the deb with dpkg, then run: sudo apt-get -f install | 21:40 |
luxx | ActionParsnip yep in theory, but it never seemed to work quite right | 21:40 |
ActionParsnip | Akls: then you know your config is bad | 21:40 |
luxx | thunar-volman was always complaining about something | 21:40 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: bizarre | 21:40 |
gbjk | Hi. I've upgraded a htpc from 10.04 to latest and I get the symbol "grub_puts_" not found, and dumped into grub recovery. | 21:40 |
scientes | Akls, you might be able to use network-manager-gnome in lxde | 21:40 |
tekonivelo | ActionParsnip: this is a little of a bastard of a debian package... i want to encourage them to do it properly | 21:40 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: not used thunar is a while, i use pcmanfm and nautilus tbh | 21:41 |
tekonivelo | ActionParsnip: it has Solr in the package too | 21:41 |
gbjk | I've attempted to use a live cd, but it's not accepting the medium and just dumping me back to grub recovery again. Not sure why. | 21:41 |
ActionParsnip | tekonivelo: the -f option will try and satisfy deps, or it willoffer to remove it | 21:41 |
tekonivelo | ActionParsnip: anyways, ok thanks i'll do dpkg -i foo.deb && apt-get install -f | 21:41 |
luxx | ActionParsnip didn't try pcmanfm,, but nautilus is a bit heavy for my old desktop with 512mb ram | 21:41 |
gbjk | So, the likely cause is that I made a mistake when prompted by grub during upgrade. | 21:41 |
ActionParsnip | luxx: very true | 21:41 |
scientes | teknoduke, yeah, just use wget, and dpkg | 21:41 |
gbjk | ls / at grub recovery console shows sane things. | 21:41 |
ActionParsnip | gbjk: did you MD5 the ISO you downloaded? | 21:41 |
Akls | ActionParsnip, What I did: right click on network connections icon -> edit connections -> select my wired connection -> edit -> ipv4 settings -> method Manual -> ip 192.168.0.150 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1 | 21:41 |
luxx | ActionParsnip ok thanks all! | 21:42 |
luxx | problem solved | 21:42 |
luxx | have a nice night | 21:42 |
gbjk | ActionParsnip: I'll double check, but ostensibly: yes. | 21:42 |
gbjk | ActionParsnip: ubuntu-11.10-desktop-i386.iso: OK | 21:45 |
gbjk | ActionParsnip: So yes. | 21:45 |
gbjk | But my question was more going to be: Google shows solutions for my grub problem using live cd. Is it possible to solve it using grub recovery. It seems viable, but ... | 21:46 |

ActionParsnip | coder2: do you want Unity? | 21:55 |
* gbjk is trying now | 21:55 | |
coder2 | ActionParsnip, i have unity,i want gnome3 | 21:55 |
ActionParsnip | coder2: Unity is a shell for Gnome 3, you already have Gnome 3 | 21:55 |
ActionParsnip | coder2: if you install gnome-shell you will have the default shell for Gnome 3 | 21:56 |
coder2 | ActionParsnip, okay,i just put up in terminal" sudo apt-get install gnome-shell" | 21:56 |

coder2 | ActionParsnip, so what should i do now? | 22:03 |
ActionParsnip | coder2: I suggest you contact the maintainer then. The default repos will install gnome shell without issue | 22:03 |
ActionParsnip | coder2: i'd remove the ppa | 22:03 |

Guest867 | hi | 22:05 |
ActionParsnip | coder2: depends how you added it... | 22:05 |
gbjk | Hmmmph. Okay. I've now got a livecd running. I don't seem to be able to run bash on the mounted drive though. | 22:06 |
coder2 | ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/M4xKKHKx this is the exact error i am getting | 22:06 |
gbjk | I get "cannot execute binary file" if I try and run /mnt/bin/bash, and I get exec format error if I do chroot /mnt/ | 22:07 |
ActionParsnip | coder2: yes I saw the first time you showed the link | 22:07 |
ActionParsnip | coder2: how did you add the PPA? | 22:07 |
coder2 | ActionParsnip, through terminal | 22:07 |
ActionParsnip | coder2: yes but by what method??? did you use'add-apt-repositry' ? | 22:08 |
L3top | /mnt/bin/bash? You would have had to have mounted something to the /mnt root dir for that to work | 22:08 |
L3top | er... mounted the root dir of something directly to /mnt* | 22:08 |
coder2 | ActionParsnip, yes | 22:09 |
coder2 | ActionParsnip, this is the link http://www.techdrivein.com/2012/01/install-latest-gnome-shell-332-in.html | 22:09 |
ActionParsnip | coder2: the install ppa-purge and use the same method but replace add-apt-repositry with ppa-purge | 22:09 |

gimbal | Hi folks. I'm trying to figure out what questions to ask google about a Linux related thing - not expecting to find any pre-rolled option for it, basically just to clarify: Like, when a public wifi router posts a page that every HTTP request redirects to, immediately after Wifi and DHCP login on the AP, and then the user has to fill out what forms, read and accept the TOS, and click on ... | 22:11 |
gimbal | ...how could a person put something like that together on Ubuntu? | 22:11 |
gimbal | I'm guessing it would involve some low-level calls into the router, maybe some kind of web app managing that? | 22:12 |
L3top | NAT? | 22:12 |
gimbal | ..with something kicking it in gear, in the first place, for the HTTP filtering and redirect | 22:12 |
gbjk | Oh, but it could easily be that I skipped off the livecd before it got "sensible" to the first term. | 22:12 |
L3top | What specifically are you trying to do that you wish to use the mounted bash and not the live bash gbjk | 22:12 |
gbjk | Maybe I should have waited for it to actually give me a desktop | 22:12 |
gbjk | L3top: I just need to fix grub, that's all the livecd's for. | 22:13 |
gimbal | L3top: I'm was guessing that it would be managed seperate from NAT, though I see that one would want to add some NAT-related features to it, to block all net access except for HTTP on the redirect thing, until the user accepts the TOS and so on | 22:13 |

Muelli | sure Dready, but that's rather for #ubuntu-offtopic. | 23:49 |
gbjk | Monkeypaws: So long as you have spare media to yank stuff off onto, then it can't go "too" wrong. | 23:49 |
reCAPTCHA_ | Muelli: Well, I have been looking and other people have had the problem, and it seems that installing or reinstalling python-gtk2 does the trick... but doing so gets me nowhere. | 23:49 |
Muelli | briankb: you might want to hop over to #gstreamer and ask there. | 23:49 |
gbjk | Monkeypaws: But wtf would I know. I just screwed myself out of a working xbmc because I thought "Maybe these issues are fixed in latest..>" | 23:50 |
Monkeypaws | Dready - yah there used to be some great hacking contest sites that would walk you through that stuff. like datafort. i'm sure there are newer ones that could help you out. google for hacking test or hacking contest | 23:50 |
reCAPTCHA_ | Muelli: I would just upgrade to 12.04 LTS from 10.04, but I obviously cannot being that I cannot get the update-manager working. | 23:50 |
Muelli | reCAPTCHA_: file a bug first. It will contain information that might help tracking the issue down. Everything else is trying to read a crystal ball. | 23:50 |
Monkeypaws | gbjk - if it makes you feel any better i've done it no less than 5 times myself :P | 23:50 |
gbjk | Oh - I've only done it a few times. | 23:50 |
gbjk | Each time, I have to try and remember what the "gotchas" were last time. | 23:51 |
Dready | Monkeypaws 10X | 23:51 |
briankb | Muelli, ah, gstreamer-nice package isn't installed by default | 23:51 |
gbjk | Looks like the last installation was straight from xbmc live cd, and now I'm running an 11.04 upgrade from a desktop iso, so I suspect I'll be shafted. | 23:51 |
Monkeypaws | YUP | 23:51 |
reCAPTCHA_ | Muelli: Sorry, what I meant to say was that I believe that this bug has already been filed. | 23:51 |
Monkeypaws | i would bet on that | 23:51 |
Monkeypaws | Dready - find anything? | 23:52 |
Muelli | reCAPTCHA_: then it will tell you. So you've got no excuse to not file this bug. | 23:52 |
maxflax | All you filesystems gurus - how come a newly formatted disc in ext4 already have 20Gig taken? | 23:52 |
=== bluemoon4 is now known as bluemoon44 | ||
schultza | where can i find the advantages to running lightdm or gdm over the other? | 23:52 |
gbjk | maxflax: I think you meant "magicians". And I doubt it can. occam's razor may apply. | 23:53 |
Dready | Monkeypaws nothing magical | 23:53 |
Muelli | hm briankb. Interesting indeed. Might be on purpose. Is there any example media in the home directory that requires a codec from the -nice package? If so, it's clearly a bug. | 23:53 |
briankb | no example media that I know of | 23:53 |
reCAPTCHA_ | Muelli: And once I do? | 23:54 |
maxflax | gbjk: prolly | 23:54 |
Muelli | reCAPTCHA_: you either find a solution directly in the bug tracker or come back with the bug id so that we have much more information than you could provide with a few lines here in IRC. | 23:55 |
jason_friday | hey | 23:55 |
blnk | I'm trying to connect from my mobile phone to my computer through SSH and it times out. I nmap my phone and it looks like port 22 isn't open.. Does anybody know another way? | 23:55 |
jason_friday | blnk/ check ur linux server setting | 23:55 |
jason_friday | its prolly not your phones fault | 23:56 |
Muelli | well blnk. Does it say "filtered" or "closed"? | 23:56 |
blnk | i've Nmap that also and 22 is open | 23:56 |
KM0201 | or you're blocking port 22 on your router (most likely) | 23:56 |
blnk | nope, i've port forwarded the router also. I can connect if i'm on the same network, but i'm trying to do it remotely | 23:56 |
vlt | blnk: You don’t need to have an open port 22 _on_ your phone btw. | 23:56 |
KM0201 | vlt: that should be obvious... | 23:57 |
jason_friday | does anyone know a channel for c programming? | 23:57 |
itaylor57 | jason_friday, ##c | 23:59 |
