| hellosputnik | Hello guys. | 00:00 |
| wylde | guest0012983: did you try 'su user1 firefox' or somesuch? | 00:00 |
| Moon_Doggy | DarwinSurvivor, i get this error http://pastebin.com/27ZQHeRQ | 00:00 |
| hellosputnik | I'm currently using Ubuntu 11.10 and I can't move my windows to the right side of the screen to make them resize. | 00:01 |
| godmachine81 | majnoon:: im not familiar with wubi. like i said, im not an ubuntu person. just here to ask a question about a 12.04 mirror for precise daily. installing on my dad's desktop. | 00:01 |
| Steevca | Is it just me or the gnome-look.org is not working? | 00:01 |
| hellosputnik | I'm not sure what that feature is called :/ | 00:01 |
| godmachine81 | hellosputnik:: called snapping | 00:01 |
| majnoon | well is ponter in correct direction any way | 00:01 |
| hellosputnik | godmachine81, how do I enable snap? | 00:01 |
| Steevca | Compiz i think. | 00:02 |
| wylde | majnoon: you'd really be better off running ubuntu from virtualbox than using wubi. JUst sayin' | 00:02 |
| godmachine81 | hellosputnik:: if i knew i'd tell you, but i don't. sorry | 00:02 |
| godmachine81 | !wubi | 00:02 |

| majnoon | no can use tvcard in virtual machine :( | 00:02 |
| persona24 | I am having diffuclties installing Ubuntu on my friends lap top | 00:02 |
| godmachine81 | yuck | 00:02 |
| guest0012983 | wylde, i will try that first, and if no go then DarwinSurvivor, i will make a pastebin of all that stuff, already have it in a text file now | 00:02 |
| guest0012983 | thanks guys | 00:02 |
| Steevca | People,seriously.Can anyone open http://www.gnome-look.org ? :D | 00:03 |
| Steevca | Is it just me? | 00:03 |
| godmachine81 | not working Steevca | 00:04 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Steevca: http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/www.gnome-look.org | 00:04 |
| Steevca | >.< | 00:04 |
| Steevca | DarwinSurvivor: Oh,yeah.I tottaly forgot about that site. | 00:04 |
| godmachine81 | downforeveryoneorjustme is a good site. but i can't ever remember the exact URL to it | 00:04 |
| godmachine81 | its too long | 00:04 |
| majnoon | godmachine81, it work okies but NO recomend updating from within it :) | 00:04 |
| godmachine81 | i always want to try downforeveryoneorisitjustme | 00:04 |
| Steevca | There are similar websites with a shorter url. | 00:04 |
| godmachine81 | yea | 00:05 |
| majnoon | *upgrading | 00:05 |
| godmachine81 | majnoon:: i don't recommend altering linux systems from inside windows. hell i dont recommend doing anything from within windows | 00:05 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Moon_Doggy: Hmm, I'm out of ideas then. I highly recommend trying the #xorg channel, those guys could probably write the config from memory | 00:05 |
| uBUxUBu | i have installed wubi a few times | 00:05 |
| Steevca | http://news.softpedia.com/news/Ubuntu-11-10-Desktop-Customization-Guide-242549.shtml I ma trying to get my desktop to look like this,but i can't download the themes because of gnome-look.Does anyobady know a site where i can find Zukitwo and Zukini GTK3 Themes ? | 00:05 |
| majnoon | no it uses a file as a virt hd | 00:05 |
| majnoon | it a FULL ubuntu install | 00:06 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Steevca: did you try googling the theme name? | 00:06 |
| willdabeast | I have a question that may not be ubuntu related, but maybe hardware. I'm having an issue where my computer will restart whenever I am trying to load a game or do heavy amounts of multitasking. | 00:06 |
| godmachine81 | majnoon:: is there some reason you can't just do a regular install? | 00:06 |
| === Cristiano is now known as Guest42810 | ||
| majnoon | mom's machine :( | 00:06 |
| godmachine81 | willdabeast:: you checked your cpu temp? | 00:06 |
| Steevca | DarwinSurvivor: Lol.I am getting so tired now,i am forgeting the basic stuff. xD Thanks,i think. xD | 00:06 |
| godmachine81 | willdabeast:: you probably have a malfunctioning cooling system or the heatsink isn't seated properly.. or possibly bad memory | 00:07 |
| willdabeast | godmachine81 I have not, any way to easily? | 00:07 |
| wylde | willdabeast: dusted inside the case lately? :) | 00:07 |
| ActionParsnip | willdabeast: test your RAM using memtest from Grub | 00:07 |
| godmachine81 | willdabeast:: yes sensors | 00:07 |
| Steevca | Found them on deviatart. xDD | 00:07 |
| Bennlucky7 | wohoo | 00:07 |
| escott | willdabeast, is it overheating? | 00:07 |
| DarwinSurvivor | willdabeast: reboot and run memtest. CPU/GPU intensive apps also use a lot of memory and tend to trigger issues if a ram stick is ba | 00:07 |
| DarwinSurvivor | willdabeast: reboot and run memtest. CPU/GPU intensive apps also use a lot of memory and tend to trigger issues if a ram stick is bad | 00:07 |
| godmachine81 | escott:: ^^ | 00:07 |
| JCDenton | Is there a reason you're instructing people to destroy their systems? | 00:08 |
| JCDenton | http://pastebin.com/J4nB7DBt | 00:08 |
| JCDenton | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype | 00:08 |
| JCDenton | I'm trying to help someone with installing Skype, and the instructions you're giving users will end up causing a shit storm. | 00:08 |
| JCDenton | You should sincerely fix that | 00:08 |
| JCDenton | Just so you're aware. | 00:08 |
| willdabeast | darwinsurvivor memtest didnt have any errors, I have 2 ram sticks that I have swapped and used one or the other. My one issue is that under properties, it lists 4gb of memory as 3.25 gb | 00:08 |
| ActionParsnip | JCDenton: whom are you addressnig exactly? | 00:08 |
| godmachine81 | JCDenton:: is the instructions on an official ubuntu page? or is it some 3rd party site? | 00:09 |
| ActionParsnip | JCDenton: thats how skype runs in 64bit | 00:09 |
| JCDenton | ActionParsnip, Whoever actually cares. This is why I don't use Ubuntu | 00:09 |
| ActionParsnip | JCDenton: skype is proprietary, so you need to moan at skype. | 00:09 |
| === aaass is now known as aaas | ||
| JCDenton | godmachine81, Did you read what I said? | 00:09 |
| DarwinSurvivor | wildc4rd: some memory may have been allocated to the video card by your bios | 00:09 |
| JCDenton | help.ubuntu.com is ubuntu.com last time I checked | 00:09 |
| ActionParsnip | JCDenton: if skype made a genuine 64bit client, you'd be ok | 00:09 |
| escott | willdabeast, if you are running 32bit you see 4GB-video card | 00:09 |
| godmachine81 | i read as much as i could without getting behind on the chat. | 00:09 |
| ActionParsnip | JCDenton: nothing to do with Ubuntu, so you are moaning in completely the wrong place | 00:09 |
| willdabeast | escott so ur saying, I should be seeing it for 32 bit? | 00:10 |
| JCDenton | The user is suing 32bit | 00:10 |
| JCDenton | not 64bit | 00:10 |
| godmachine81 | skype isn't hard to install or configure. doesn't really need a guide to install it | 00:10 |
| DarwinSurvivor | JCDenton: skype is trying to replace a FUNDAMENTAL piece of ubuntu with their PPA. Please bring up the issue with them as their package is *defective* | 00:10 |
| ActionParsnip | JCDenton: yes, but the OS is multiarch under 64bit so you can run 32bit apps.. | 00:10 |
| escott | willdabeast, no that "-" is a minus. sorry not being clear. you see less than 4gb | 00:10 |
| ActionParsnip | JCDenton: just like you can in windows... | 00:10 |
| godmachine81 | just install the 32bit compatibility libraries, and install skype. and done | 00:10 |
| Steevca | Is there a website i can check and see how each resolution would look like on my dekstop? | 00:10 |
| rohan | Steevca: www.whatismyscreenresolution.com | 00:11 |
| majnoon | having fun here ,2 keyboards,2 mouses,3 monitors :) | 00:11 |
| godmachine81 | JCDenton:: if user is using 32bit then all they need to do is install the native libs + skype | 00:11 |
| willdabeast | escott o I gotcha, sry. Ok so I have a feeling that it may be cpu temp, it says 57 celcius. Which isn't too crazy | 00:11 |
| ActionParsnip | JCDenton: I suggest you install 32bit Ubuntu with PAE kernel if it bother you so much, sounds like its just for web accessing and such which doesn't benefit much from 64bitness | 00:11 |
| godmachine81 | willdabeast:: 57 at idle or load | 00:11 |
| APoulos | alright peeps, need help again | 00:12 |
| willdabeast | godmachine at load | 00:12 |
| willdabeast | godmachine i mean idle sry | 00:12 |
| APoulos | I need help with rsync one more time | 00:12 |
| willdabeast | godmachine81 sry i mean idle | 00:12 |
| godmachine81 | check temp under load | 00:12 |
| DarwinSurvivor | APoulos: fire away | 00:12 |
| wylde | willdabeast: 57 at idle is awfully high. | 00:12 |
| lcc | what time will ubuntu 12.04 be released? | 00:12 |
| ActionParsnip | APoulos: grsync is handy for rsync stuff | 00:12 |
| XxxTilllYxxX | #moparscape | 00:12 |
| ActionParsnip | lcc: ask in #ubuntu+1 for Precise stuffs | 00:12 |
| godmachine81 | wylde:: not too high on some laptops | 00:12 |
| zykotick9 | lcc: the time is not known, sometime tomorrow 26th in North America | 00:13 |
| APoulos | DarwinSurvivor, here's the command: rsync --progress -rEog --exclude-from='excludes.txt /home/alex/ /media/backup/12.04-Precise-backup_4.23.2012/ | 00:13 |
| willdabeast | godmachine81 and wylde, you think the only way to fix it is to replace cpu or reapply the glue? | 00:13 |
| wylde | godmachine81: true, didn't cacth if he was on a lappy or desktop. | 00:13 |
| godmachine81 | willdabeast:: its not glue | 00:13 |
| hellosputnik | :( | 00:13 |
| wylde | willdabeast: thermal paste | 00:13 |
| Moon_Doggy | ty anyways DarwinSurvivor | 00:13 |
| godmachine81 | willdabeast:: you need some good thermal compound (not glue) make sure it is seated properly, and don't use too much of the compound | 00:13 |
| escott | willdabeast, 57 at idle is high. I only get that when flash starts trying to compute the last digit of pi using all 4 cores | 00:13 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Moon_Doggy: no problem | 00:13 |
| hellosputnik | The lack of the snap feature is making me so sad :( | 00:13 |
| godmachine81 | willdabeast:: it only takes about the size of a BB, and don't spread it out. it will spread by its self when the temp heats up | 00:14 |
| DarwinSurvivor | APoulos: and what do you need help with? | 00:14 |
| willdabeast | godmachine81 and wylde sry yea i meant that lol multitasking. Any place to get it cheap and should I just google how to reapply it? | 00:14 |
| lcc | ok | 00:14 |
| Steevca | One more thing.How can i move the unity shell,the dock on the left side to the bottom? | 00:14 |
| wylde | willdabeast: the system I'm on now has been under 100% load for 3 hours or so, I'm running at 54 degrees. | 00:14 |
| celso_ | man.... lots of people here...... | 00:14 |
| godmachine81 | willdabeast:: just the size of a BB in the center. place heatsink on the cpu snuggly holding pressure down on it for aprox 30 seconds | 00:14 |
| celso_ | hi people! | 00:14 |
| APoulos | DarwinSurvivor, everytime I try and use gsync to copy over files to that drive, even wtihout the "=excludes.txt" and use "--exclude filenamehere" I get an error when copying over files | 00:14 |
| taschrant | Howdy-do! I'm new with Ubuntu and I installed Compiz Settings Manger. | 00:14 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Steevca: not possible yet, possibly in precise but not positive | 00:15 |
| willdabeast | godmachine81 alright sweet thanks so much. So no replacement cpu thats the good news hopefully c: | 00:15 |
| godmachine81 | willdabeast:: then tighten the heatsink down. run the cpu at full load for 20 - 30 minutes so that the compound will spread out properly | 00:15 |
| taschrant | It stopped working, but I tried running the command compiz --replace. | 00:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Steevca: there is an unofficial PPA, it is known to cause issues | 00:15 |
| godmachine81 | willdabeast:: if cpu was broke it wouldn't work half the time | 00:15 |
| APoulos | DarwinSurvivor, this is what it gives me: "Downloads/Windows.7.Ultimate.32-64Bit.(2011-02-09).iso | 00:15 |

| taschrant | That worked temporarily, but it still doesn't keep my compiz going permanently. | 00:15 |
| Steevca | :( | 00:15 |
| wylde | willdabeast: godmachine81 <<---- what he's saying. Although, if it's a desktop, open the case and see if fans/heatsinks are clogged with dust, and if your fans are working. | 00:15 |
| godmachine81 | willdabeast:: if cpu was broke it would not work at all.. | 00:15 |
| taschrant | Is there anything I can do? | 00:15 |

| shaneo | sudipta, you can install it now | 00:26 |
| shaneo | sudipta, Ive been using it for weeks its wondeful | 00:26 |
| shaneo | taschrant, hmm thats a little advanced for me honestly i stay away from compiz it is great for effects and what not but hard to configure properly sometime | 00:27 |
| sudipta | shaneo:but the site shows a link to beta 2.Want to grab the final release of the LTS.BTW, I'm in India,so any chance of time delay??? | 00:27 |
| taschrant | Ah. | 00:27 |
| celso_ | sudipta, go check #ubuntu-release-party | 00:28 |
| taschrant | Is there a way I can have an expose-effect (like the Macs) in Ubuntu without Compiz then? | 00:28 |
| shaneo | sudipta, Beta2 is pretty stable and worth installing | 00:28 |
| shaneo | therefore when final comes out you'll just need a few updates | 00:28 |

| APoulos | Also, last question, Boot-repair hung a bit and never fixed my grub menu, is there a way I can do the same job and fix my grub menu? | 00:43 |
| DarwinSurvivor | unfortunately every derivative distro likes to tweak things, so without knowing what they have changed, we can't help you much | 00:43 |
| guest0012983 | i understand | 00:43 |
| awisepilot | I need assistance with a Fresh Install of 11.10. After the install is complete and booting for the first time I get a bunch of udevd[96]: timeout: killing /sbin/modprobe -bv pci. Then it freezes when it get to a bnx2 error. | 00:44 |
| DarwinSurvivor | guest0012983: if backtrack requires you to be logged in as root (something ubuntu does NOT do), that is an issue you need to bring up with *them* | 00:44 |
| guest0012983 | although it is basically just ubuntu with different PPAs... could we pretend that i am using backbox? since the problem would be the exact same in backbox and backbox is ubuntu supported | 00:44 |
| jeral | Can someone help me get my sound working again. It was working and my son used headphones on my laptop and then I could barely hear the sound. I reloaded 11.10 and not I can't get sound at al | 00:44 |
| jeral | *all | 00:44 |
| DarwinSurvivor | the consensus on ubuntu is that you should never be logged in as root unless you are doing something VERY exceptional (such as HDD recovery) | 00:45 |
| guest0012983 | if not its cool, i do appreciate all of your help thus far | 00:45 |
| jeral | I checked alsamixer and the second Master was muted so I unmuted it | 00:45 |
| DarwinSurvivor | guest0012983: I don't think backbox IS a Canonical endorsed distro at all | 00:46 |
| jeral | Can someone help me out | 00:46 |
| guest0012983 | okays... thanks for all the help anyways | 00:46 |
| guest0012983 | at least i ruled some stuff out | 00:46 |
| DarwinSurvivor | jeral: the headphones are unplugged now right? (just verifying the obvious) | 00:47 |
| awisepilot | I wish some one would help me | 00:47 |
| guest0012983 | bye | 00:47 |
| guest0012983 | L) | 00:47 |
| guest0012983 | :) | 00:47 |
| DarwinSurvivor | awisepilot: can you pastebin all the output? | 00:47 |
| awisepilot | sure :) | 00:47 |
| APoulos | How would I list a set of directories to exclude from btw - like --exclude=exclude.txt - where would I put that txt file? | 00:48 |

| hellosputnik | How do I edit my workspaces in Ubuntu 11.10? | 00:50 |
| hellosputnik | I want more than 4 and I want them to be linear. | 00:51 |
| hellosputnik | I dislike having to use the up and down arrow keys to switch between my workspaces :( | 00:51 |
| jeral | How do you make all the changes you did in Alsamixer stay | 00:51 |
| jeral | I keep having the second Master Channel go back to Mute | 00:51 |
| jeral | Hello can someone help me out | 00:53 |
| DarwinSurvivor | apwbdjp: you can put the text file anywheres, just replace "exclude.txt" in the command with the location of the actual file | 00:53 |
| ActionParsnip | hellosputnik: you can do it in CCSM | 00:54 |

| kip | I have been trying all of the methods of installing Sun Java 6 JRE from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java and none of them work. Who do I tell the documentation is not correct? | 00:54 |
| apwbdjp | DarwinSurvivor, not me, I believe ^^ It's alright, just make sure the guy got it | 00:54 |
| darbe | it should be active , right? http://s17.postimage.org/kok71xpvj/libstdc_6.png | 00:55 |
| DarwinSurvivor | apwbdjp: sorry, looks like he left and autocomplete switched to your name | 00:55 |

| hellosputnik | Thanks ActionParsnip. | 00:56 |
| DarwinSurvivor | kip: could you please be more specific than "does not work"? | 00:56 |
| ryoohki | any idea when archive.getdeb.net will be back? | 00:57 |
| DarwinSurvivor | kip: are you getting errors, does java not execute, does it crash, etc? | 00:57 |
| builder | heya | 00:57 |
| kip | Each way has a different error, and will not complete. | 00:57 |

| myr | Anyone know when 10.04 will no longer be updated? | 01:00 |
| majnoon | ok anyone know of a good FREE windows xserver to connect to linux box ?? | 01:00 |
| DarwinSurvivor | myr: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_%28operating_system%29#Releases | 01:00 |
| myr | DarwinSurvivor, thanks | 01:01 |
| HoNgOuRu | hi, is there any way to find a text file that I modified 15 days ago ? | 01:01 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: do you know the name of it? | 01:01 |
| kacOngs_ | precise im coming | 01:01 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, ofcourse not | 01:01 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: do you know what folder it was in, what permissions it had, the *precise* date, etc? | 01:02 |
| HoNgOuRu | yes, my home folder | 01:02 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: knowing the size and/or content (even a few words) will help | 01:02 |
| HoNgOuRu | yes, precise date... | 01:02 |
| HoNgOuRu | no | 01:02 |
| HoNgOuRu | no words | 01:02 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: do you remember what war IN the file (even a few words)? | 01:02 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, no | 01:03 |
| HoNgOuRu | just 3 consecutive numbers | 01:03 |
| HoNgOuRu | but Im not sure | 01:03 |
| escott | majnoon, xming? | 01:03 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: stupid question: how can a file you know nothing about be important enough to save...? | 01:03 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, a telephone number | 01:03 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: do you know what the numbers were? | 01:03 |
| DarwinSurvivor | ah | 01:03 |
| HoNgOuRu | I guess | 01:03 |
| HoNgOuRu | is there any "find " something? | 01:03 |
| HoNgOuRu | can I look for a particular period of time? | 01:04 |
| HoNgOuRu | I know the date and time | 01:04 |
| Lazik | HoNgOuRu: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-osxfind-files-by-date/ | 01:04 |
| escott | HoNgOuRu, find can do that | 01:04 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: yes, the "find" command will search for files by name, size, permissions & date. "grep" will search INSIDE the files for a pattern or a piece of text | 01:04 |
| Diranged | i just switched our syslog serer from syslog-ng to rsyslog (4.2.0, on ubuntu 10.04), and rsyslog is using up 100% of the cpu.. | 01:04 |
| Diranged | its working, but its stuck idlign @ 100% as it brings in a few logs from our remote servers | 01:05 |
| ActionParsnip | majnoon: xming | 01:05 |
| awisepilot | DarwinSurvivor: Here are my two post http://imagebin.org/209756 and http://imagebin.org/209757 | 01:05 |
| ActionParsnip | kip: did you get my PM? | 01:05 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: do you remember ANYTHING about the filename (ex: ending in .txt or something)? | 01:05 |
| kip | I am back. The paste is http://paste.ubuntu.com/946617/ | 01:06 |
| ActionParsnip | kip: did you get my link? | 01:07 |
| kip | Just found it. | 01:07 |
| ActionParsnip | kip: bit easier ;) | 01:07 |
| DarwinSurvivor | kip: what I meant by "output" was every time you entered something in the terminal "ex: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 5CB26B26" we need the output of that command | 01:08 |
| zymurgy | I'm in Ubuntu 12.04, in KDE. An inch or two of the whole desktop disappears under the screen's left edge. What can I do about this? | 01:08 |
| DarwinSurvivor | kip: what you need to do is start from scratch, run ALL your commands in the same terminal, then pastebin the ENTIRE contents of that terminal | 01:08 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: give a sec, writting a script for you | 01:09 |
| christhisisgool | zmurgy: one. this is not kubuntu. 2. this is not the 12.04 channel | 01:09 |
| awisepilot | DarwinSurvivor: did you see my imagepast? | 01:09 |
| kip | The command that failed was listed. I will do again and capture everything. O.K. Thanks. May be awhile. It is on another computer. | 01:09 |
| DarwinSurvivor | awisepilot: sorry, I know very little about udev | 01:10 |
| zymurgy | I'm in Ubuntu 12.04, in KDE. An inch or two of the whole desktop disappears under the screen's left edge. What can I do about this? | 01:11 |
| DarwinSurvivor | kip: sometimes things that don't error out still have messages that can help find out what caused an error later | 01:11 |
| ActionParsnip | zymurgy: ask in #ubuntu+1 please | 01:12 |
| awisepilot | First time trying Ubuntu, cann't beleive it's has a bug on a sever install. | 01:12 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, how is that script going ? | 01:12 |
| ActionParsnip | awisepilot: which release? | 01:12 |
| awisepilot | 11.10 | 01:12 |
| awisepilot | I'm about to blow it away and load SLES 11 | 01:12 |
| ActionParsnip | awisepilot: Precise is out in a matter of HOURS. Why not instal Precise?? It's also LTS so has a lot more life than Oneiric | 01:12 |
| awisepilot | Were can I find Precise | 01:13 |
| awisepilot | and what is it | 01:13 |
| myr | ActionParsnip, because new versions of ubuntu are generally quite unstable? | 01:13 |
| awisepilot | I am new to Ubuntu | 01:13 |
| ActionParsnip | awisepilot: its the 12.04 release of ubuntu | 01:13 |
| ActionParsnip | myr: LTS releases are intentionally made as solid as possible from day 0 | 01:13 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: ok, unfortunately, your home folder contains *LOTS* of small files, so any information will help (was it in Documents/, what was the format of any line of the file ex: ###-###-#### or ### ### ####) | 01:13 |
| ActionParsnip | awisepilot: Oneiric has 18 months of support, Precise has 5 years | 01:14 |
| awisepilot | nice | 01:14 |
| awisepilot | where can I find it | 01:14 |
| xangua | awisepilot: ubuntu.com | 01:14 |
| awisepilot | I got to get this server running | 01:14 |
| awisepilot | on something | 01:14 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: "find ~ -size -b50" and tell me how much gets printed | 01:14 |
| myr | ActionParsnip, I have been using ubuntu since Breezy, and I have not found LTS releases to be any more stable upon initial release | 01:15 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: you will probably get a LOT of stuff from .mozilla/ so add " | grep -v mozilla" after | 01:15 |
| myr | 10.04 is rock solid | 01:15 |
| Bennlucky7 | zymurgy: maybe setting in monitor button | 01:15 |
| awisepilot | does 10.04 come with Python and Twisted | 01:16 |
| ActionParsnip | myr: i'd still go for it in a server install as a clean install personally. Precise has been fine here since Alpha2, been using Ubuntu since Gutsy, Linux in various flavours for much longer | 01:16 |
| awisepilot | ActionParsnip, lit in a couple of hours there is a new version | 01:17 |
| zymurgy | Don't think there IS a "monitor button". This exact same setup worked perfectly under debian. | 01:17 |
| user1 | hi, ubuntu 12.04 lts released or not.... | 01:17 |
| uBUxUBu | its actually april 26 in samoa right now | 01:17 |
| celso_ | not | 01:17 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: http://www.learnosity.com/techblog/index.cfm/2010/5/10/Howto-find-files-newer-than-a-specific-date-using-command-line | 01:17 |
| uBUxUBu | the website still shows 11'10 as current | 01:18 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, that command should be writen -size 50b | 01:18 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: sorry, that was a reference for myself | 01:18 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: what was the date it was made? | 01:18 |
| GG111 | Grr, this one is really getting, I thought I had the perfect install, untill - | 01:19 |
| ActionParsnip | uBUxUBu: yes, thats because its still the latest stable :) | 01:19 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, dont know if "made" or modified | 01:19 |
| kip | It looks like I have partial (uncomplete installs of Java6 JRE,and Java 7 JDK) and I can not remove them, so I am going to reinstall Lubuntu and start from scratch again. And log everything. | 01:20 |
| GG111 | does anyone know, why does the new-mail envelope in unity flips to "no mail", right after the first email is cheked, even if there are tem more new emails left ? | 01:20 |
| HoNgOuRu | 2012-14-04 | 01:20 |
| uBUxUBu | hmm so you mean they wont even shiw it current tomorrow? | 01:20 |
| awisepilot | Let me try 10.04 LTS there are issues with 11.10 I just found in the forums with a race condition during boot in the udev. | 01:20 |
| ActionParsnip | uBUxUBu: yes, when iots released, the site will be updated.. | 01:20 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: you mean 2012-04-14? | 01:20 |
| uBUxUBu | but it is 2pm april 26 in samoa | 01:21 |
| HoNgOuRu | yes | 01:21 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, between 20:00 and 22:00 | 01:21 |
| xangua | !isitout | uBUxUBu | 01:21 |
| ubottu | uBUxUBu: Nope! Ubuntu 12.04 is scheduled for release sometime on April 26th. You can party in #ubuntu-release-party while you're waiting! | 01:21 |
| uBUxUBu | guess they fell behind | 01:21 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: NOW we're getting specific! | 01:21 |
| bazhang | uBUxUBu, so? it'll be out when it's out. no need to repeat here | 01:21 |
| HoNgOuRu | don't give me hope... | 01:22 |
| ActionParsnip | uBUxUBu: are you running the beta release already? | 01:22 |
| HoNgOuRu | Ill buy it... | 01:22 |
| uBUxUBu | no | 01:22 |
| uBUxUBu | im using 11.10 | 01:22 |
| ActionParsnip | uBUxUBu: if you install the beta or daily, you will upgrade seamlessly into the release | 01:22 |
| GG111 | no input on the new-mail envelope ? | 01:22 |
| bazhang | uBUxUBu, lets stick to ubuntu support. #ubuntu-release-party for the countdown NOT here | 01:22 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, it was a text file, probably without the .txt extension | 01:22 |
| awisepilot | If I start fresh with 10.04 when 12 release I will be able to upgrade without going to 11.10 correct? | 01:23 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: http://paste.ubuntu.com/946630/ | 01:23 |
| myr | awisepilot, yes | 01:23 |
| bazhang | awisepilot, 10.04 does not go to 11.10 directly | 01:23 |
| awisepilot | but it will go to 12 ??? | 01:23 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: oops, sorry, just a sec | 01:24 |
| bazhang | awisepilot, it's 10.04 to 12.04 one step | 01:24 |
| myr | awisepilot, yes | 01:24 |
| awisepilot | cool | 01:24 |
| dj_segfault | awisepilot: I had this discussion here last week and found out you can go LTS release to LTS release | 01:24 |
| awisepilot | hitting the download button now!! for 10.04 lts | 01:24 |
| majnoon | wow can watch tv (kaffiene) through ssh x11 forward :) | 01:24 |
| uBUxUBu | so, installing the beta and installing the final lts are the same ActionParsnip ? | 01:25 |
| awisepilot | Thanks for the solid solution myr | 01:25 |
| SeedGame | Hello all | 01:25 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: sorry, fixed: http://paste.ubuntu.com/946633/ | 01:26 |
| SeedGame | I have one problem need to ask | 01:26 |
| myr | awisepilot, no problem. Hope it goes well for you. | 01:26 |
| bazhang | !final | uBUxUBu yes | 01:26 |
| ubottu | uBUxUBu 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. | 01:26 |
| SeedGame | I | 01:26 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: depending on how many files are in your home directory, it may take a while to run | 01:27 |
| HoNgOuRu | yeah...its looking | 01:28 |
| trongnghia | good morning! | 01:28 |
| ActionParsnip | uBUxUBu: you will upgrade seamlessly | 01:28 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, I copied the whole home directory yesterday, would that be a problem ? | 01:29 |
| Bennlucky7 | good evening ! | 01:29 |
| uBUxUBu | hmmm, but i prefer clean install | 01:29 |
| uBUxUBu | since it is this close | 01:29 |
| awisepilot | I just went to the web site and its says 12.04 LTS is ready for download | 01:29 |
| uBUxUBu | omg | 01:29 |
| SeedGame | I have 8 user in ubuntu and each user are with disk quota and seprate files and each user have torrend clent,ftp,http explorer, rapid leech and many other stuff and I want to limit the bandwidth/user like each user can use 1tb bandwidth not more then that but i dont want to limit speeds but just bandwidth | 01:30 |
| uBUxUBu | its here | 01:30 |
| bazhang | awisepilot, its not | 01:30 |
| bazhang | uBUxUBu, stop that. it's not | 01:30 |
| jeral | Ok does anyone of a Sound fix for ubuntu | 01:30 |
| Diranged | i'm stuck on this rsyslog issue… it looks like rsyslog starts up, massively starts taking up memory and cpu, and eventually crashes.. | 01:30 |
| jeral | I had the fix but I can't get it to work anymore | 01:31 |
| Diranged | ' 6537 syslog 20 0 4020m 3.4g 732 S 75.6 91.5 1:05.17 rsyslogd' … | 01:31 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: HoNgOuRu nope, it's searching by modification time. Unless you are searching inside the backup there should be no issue | 01:31 |
| awisepilot | Testing, testing Ubuntu 12.04 LTS is in final beta now. Download it today is not what we are looking for? | 01:31 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, no, Im searching inside the home directory | 01:32 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, it has to work | 01:32 |
| uBUxUBu | awisepilot, i thought you meant it said it is out of beta | 01:32 |
| bazhang | awisepilot, beta is not final. you will know when it is released. | 01:32 |
| HoNgOuRu | -size 50b means smaller than 50B ? | 01:32 |
| awisepilot | No, sorry for the false alarm | 01:32 |
| uBUxUBu | it has said beta on there for awhile now | 01:32 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: if this doesn't work we can also try using grep to search for a pattern matching the numbers, but that will be SLOWWWWW | 01:32 |
| awisepilot | I thought that is what you wanted me to download | 01:32 |
| bazhang | uBUxUBu, it's not, stop speculating on it here | 01:32 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: yes | 01:32 |
| HoNgOuRu | all right. | 01:33 |
| HoNgOuRu | no luck! | 01:33 |
| HoNgOuRu | finished | 01:33 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: wait, was it three numbers that make a phone number, or 3 phone numbers? | 01:33 |
| HoNgOuRu | 3 numbers | 01:33 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: do you remember the exact format of the file (replace numbers with #'s)? | 01:34 |
| awisepilot | Dang another 27 minute download ...uggg | 01:34 |
| HoNgOuRu | mmm... not sure | 01:34 |
| myr | awisepilot, torrents are generally faster... | 01:35 |
| HoNgOuRu | ####3## could help ? between spaces | 01:35 |
| celso_ | time to go sleep. i will download it tomorow. bb all | 01:36 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: what does "du -h --max-depth=0 ~" report? | 01:37 |
| HoNgOuRu | 38G | 01:38 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: ouch. Ok can you create a pastebin and list *everything* you know about the file in hit. Make 2 lists. 1) things you know 2) things you suspect | 01:39 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: even lits things you know are false (ex: filename contains no numbers, underscores or uppercase characters) | 01:40 |
| SeedGame | Anybody please help me | 01:40 |
| DarwinSurvivor | SeedGame: what was your question? | 01:40 |
| SeedGame | I have 8 user in ubuntu and each user are with disk quota and seprate files and each user have torrend clent,ftp,http explorer, rapid leech and many other stuff and I want to limit the bandwidth/user like each user can use 1tb bandwidth not more then that but i dont want to limit speeds but just bandwidth | 01:40 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, the command with the before and after is not finding anything, so I guess that it would not find it otherwise | 01:41 |
| kacOngs | damm, my conecsi is so bad | 01:41 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: yes, but we can make those more broad and try other things you know about the file | 01:41 |
| zymurgy | Ubuntu and other Debian-based distros are useless of Debian's indifferent hardware support. Byebye. | 01:42 |
| DarwinSurvivor | SeedGame: what do you want to happen when they run out? total cut off, limiting, close apps, etc? | 01:42 |
| SeedGame | Total cut off | 01:42 |
| DarwinSurvivor | SeedGame: are these local users or do they login remotely? | 01:43 |
| SeedGame | Local linux users | 01:43 |
| DarwinSurvivor | SeedGame: and how quickly do they need to be cut off? instantly, or would a check every night be enough? | 01:44 |
| SeedGame | Instantly | 01:44 |
| DarwinSurvivor | SeedGame: checking once every few minutes wouldn't work either? | 01:45 |
| HoNgOuRu | WOOOOOW !!!!!!!!! DARWIN !!!! | 01:46 |
| HoNgOuRu | awesome | 01:46 |
| HoNgOuRu | found !!!! | 01:46 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: what? | 01:46 |
| FloodBot1 | HoNgOuRu: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:46 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: what did you do? | 01:46 |
| SeedGame | Darwin, it could work for me | 01:46 |
| DarwinSurvivor | lol floodbot | 01:46 |
| X-tonic | what time is 12.04 expected? | 01:46 |
| HoNgOuRu | took out the -size 50b | 01:46 |
| DarwinSurvivor | !outyet | X-tonic | 01:46 |
| ubottu | X-tonic: Nope! Ubuntu 12.04 is scheduled for release sometime on April 26th. You can party in #ubuntu-release-party while you're waiting! | 01:46 |
| bazhang | X-tonic, no set time | 01:46 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: ah, must have contained more than 3 numbers then | 01:47 |
| HoNgOuRu | and then searched the names of the list, it was less than 40 lines | 01:47 |
| HoNgOuRu | yes | 01:47 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: congratulations | 01:47 |
| HoNgOuRu | I remembered 3 out of 6 | 01:47 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: ah, 6 would have put it just over 50b :P | 01:47 |
| HoNgOuRu | it is 8 bytes long | 01:47 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, I love linux! | 01:48 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: which would be 64b (8*8=64) ! | 01:48 |
| HoNgOuRu | lets see | 01:48 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: adjust slightly for HDD sector sizes of course | 01:49 |
| HoNgOuRu | nope, not working even with 200b | 01:49 |
| HoNgOuRu | oh | 01:49 |
| tohuw | What is the mechanism a program uses to notify the unity bar to highlight its icon? | 01:49 |
| HoNgOuRu | that could be | 01:49 |
| X-tonic | bazhang: but i remember some previous release having set times, like 10.10 came on 10:10:10, and on came at 10AM PSD | 01:49 |
| DarwinSurvivor | SeedGame: there are some monitoring utilities listed on http://www.ubuntugeek.com/bandwidth-monitoring-tools-for-linux.html but I'm not sure if any will monitor per user | 01:49 |

| DarwinSurvivor | SeedGame: what is the use case here? There may be other ways of doing this | 01:50 |
| bazhang | X-tonic, just that ONE time. | 01:50 |
| Diranged | grr.. cant figure out wtf is wrong with rsyslog.. | 01:50 |
| X-tonic | right.. | 01:50 |
| HoNgOuRu | DarwinSurvivor, thank u a lot. | 01:50 |
| SeedGame | Huh? | 01:50 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: no problem | 01:51 |

| DarwinSurvivor | SeedGame: is this a family computer with a limited ISP connection, a server for friends, etc? | 01:51 |
| DarwinSurvivor | HoNgOuRu: bye | 01:51 |
| * DarwinSurvivor wonders if the phone number was for a date....... | 01:51 | |
| SeedGame | A server for friends. | 01:51 |
| DarwinSurvivor | SeedGame: so they are *not* local users then! | 01:52 |
| SeedGame | Umm | 01:52 |
| SeedGame | Thanks | 01:52 |
| DarwinSurvivor | SeedGame: sorry, should have been more specific. By local user I meant "user that has physical access and uses the keyboard" | 01:52 |
| zykotick9 | X-tonic: 10.10 wasn't released at 10:10am/pm either, it was out before that. I organized a release party at 10:10AM on 10.10.10 - and it was already out ;) which is a lot earlier then normal (i think they must have had it ready the night before for that release) | 01:52 |
| SeedGame | I got it Drawin | 01:53 |
| SeedGame | Drawin, any way exist to do that? | 01:54 |
| DarwinSurvivor | SeedGame: from what I can see the best/easiest way would be to have each user use a virtual network interface, then use vnstat to monitor how much has gone through each interface | 01:55 |
| SeedGame | Ah okay | 01:55 |

| violinappren | hello ericluwolf | 02:10 |
| juancarlospaco | hello, hello gentlemans and gentle womans | 02:11 |
| juancarlospaco | :P | 02:11 |
| nontechnical | hey guys - im trying to copy the functionality of textmate on ubuntu with gedit | 02:14 |
| nontechnical | i found this article http://blog.sudobits.com/2011/04/02/textmate-for-ubuntu-linux/ | 02:14 |
| nontechnical | im stuck on the last bit getting the plugin into the correct /usr folder because i have permission restrictions - can anyone help me figure this out? | 02:15 |
| netzsooc | hey for some reason the speakers of my laptop are not working... if don't plug headphones Ihave no sound, what the reason could be? | 02:15 |
| violinappren | nontechnical: sudo? | 02:15 |
| violinappren | !sound | netzsooc | 02:16 |
| ubottu | netzsooc: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 02:16 |
| juancarlospaco | :) | 02:16 |
| DarwinSurvivor | netzsooc: can you post a screenshot of your audio mixer levels? | 02:16 |
| nontechnical | i understand <violinappren> in theory, can you guide me through it? please! | 02:17 |
| violinappren | nontechnical: did you extract the files of the plugin? | 02:17 |
| nontechnical | yes, they are on my desktop | 02:18 |
| zykotick9 | nontechnical: (perhaps saying the following to this nic is silly) i have no idea what textmate is or what you are trying to duplicate. but i'd like to suggest, in the long run, you might do well to learn emacs or vi(m). not for today i understand. | 02:18 |
| nontechnical | i did this (when not in sudo) <violinappren> gksu gedit_classbrowser-0.2.1 ~/usr/share/gedit/plugins | 02:18 |
| DarwinSurvivor | nontechnical: um, I highly doubt ~/usr/share/gedit even exist, you probably want /usr/share/gedit/plugins (without the ~) | 02:19 |
| violinappren | nontechnical: should be: sudo cp -R instead of gksu | 02:19 |
| nontechnical | thanks <zykotick9> I've read a little on it | 02:19 |
| juancarlospaco | :) | 02:19 |
| nontechnical | what does the -R do? | 02:20 |
| DarwinSurvivor | nontechnical: recursive | 02:20 |
| DarwinSurvivor | nontechnical: same as -r | 02:20 |
| nontechnical | ill look it up ;-) | 02:20 |
| violinappren | DarwinSurvivor: nontechnical: it's /usr/lib/gedit/plugins/ | 02:20 |
| DarwinSurvivor | violinappren: that sounds like it | 02:20 |
| juancarlospaco | ./ignore juancarlospaco ^all | 02:21 |
| juancarlospaco | ups | 02:21 |
| violinappren | nontechnical: i second the vim/emacs suggestion | 02:21 |
| bazhang | juancarlospaco, please stop that | 02:21 |
| juancarlospaco | sorry | 02:21 |
| nontechnical | <violinappren> i did this: sudo cp -R gedit_classbrowser-0.2.1 ~/usr/lib/gedit/plugins | 02:22 |
| violinappren | nontechnical: there should be no ~ | 02:23 |
| violinappren | ~ means your home directory | 02:23 |
| juancarlospaco | Gimp 2.8 is pure Win | 02:23 |
| RiXtEr-Home_ | O+o | 02:23 |
| nontechnical | <violinappren> i got this back: cp: cannot stat `gedit_classbrowser-0.2.1': No such file or directory | 02:23 |
| RiXtEr-Home_ | nontechnical, are you in ~/Desktop ? | 02:23 |
| violinappren | nontechnical: if you extracted it on your desktop (not the home directory) it will be under ~/Desktop | 02:24 |
| Mneumonic | Is there an ubuntu release party channel like last time? | 02:24 |
| bazhang | Mneumonic, yes | 02:24 |
| violinappren | nontechnical: so Desktop/gedit_... | 02:24 |
| bazhang | !party > Mneumonic | 02:24 |
| ubottu | Mneumonic, please see my private message | 02:24 |
| Logan_ | Mneumonic: #ubuntu-release-party | 02:24 |

| ubottu | juancarlospaco: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 02:24 |
| nontechnical | yeah i guess i was in home....! | 02:24 |
| Ububegin | Hi, how do i open a lib.a file.. I just want to see whats inside.. what app in ubuntu can do that | 02:25 |
| nontechnical | <violinappren> if i get no error message does it mean it worked? | 02:26 |
| nontechnical | ill go check.. | 02:26 |
| nontechnical | sorry. | 02:26 |
| violinappren | Ububegin: it's a static native code library (as opposed to a dynamic one, .so) | 02:26 |
| violinappren | nontechnical: probably, yeah | 02:27 |
| ccsabathia | Can Ubuntu run on 512mb ram? | 02:27 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Ububegin: basically, it will resemble the inside of an executable file (in fact, multiple .a files are combined to create an executable). | 02:28 |
| violinappren | Ububegin: ar -t lib.a | 02:28 |
| Fyodorovna | ccsabathia, I would try lubuntu | 02:28 |
| DarwinSurvivor | ccsabathia: depends what you want to run on it | 02:28 |
| DarwinSurvivor | ccsabathia: I've seen firefox ALONE use that much... | 02:28 |
| ccsabathia | Just Firefox and OpenOffice | 02:28 |
| ccsabathia | It's got a dual 933 MHz p3 | 02:28 |
| DarwinSurvivor | ccsabathia: no distro will run both firefox and openoffice on 512MB without going slow, those applications alone use that much :( | 02:29 |
| zykotick9 | !requirements | ccsabathia they recommend 1GB | 02:29 |
| DarwinSurvivor | ccsabathia: I would recommend using lighter alternatives, though they will still run | 02:29 |
| user | sup all | 02:29 |
| ccsabathia | Ok I will try lubumtu then | 02:29 |
| Ububegin | violinappren: thanks.. how about a .so file | 02:30 |
| CyberWorld | join "ubuntu-release-party" to talk about the 12.04 release | 02:31 |

| user | i have a newb question for anyone who knows their stuff... how can i upgrade to 12.04? | 02:31 |
| DarwinSurvivor | user: 1) wait for it to be released 2) use update manager | 02:32 |
| bazhang | user, from what version | 02:32 |
| user | 11.10 | 02:32 |
| user | tried update manager but does not give me the option | 02:32 |
| bazhang | user, it's not released yet, thats why | 02:33 |
| ActionParsnip | user: when it is released it will be an option | 02:33 |
| DarwinSurvivor | !outyet | user | 02:33 |
| ubottu | user: Nope! Ubuntu 12.04 is scheduled for release sometime on April 26th. You can party in #ubuntu-release-party while you're waiting! | 02:33 |
| user | lol k i can wait a few hours thanks | 02:34 |
| ActionParsnip | easiest to think of it as out on 27th, that way all time zones are accomodated | 02:34 |
| roguetech | user if you click alt+f2 | 02:34 |
| roguetech | and type update-manager -d | 02:35 |
| ActionParsnip | roguetech: click alt+f2? | 02:35 |
| ActionParsnip | roguetech: that will need sudo too | 02:35 |
| roguetech | it i will give u the option | 02:35 |
| SmileyChris | ActionParsnip: you don't use your mouse to type on your keyboard? | 02:35 |
| SmileyChris | i thought that's how you were supposed to do it | 02:35 |
| godmachine | does ubuntu not come with a screensaver installed anymore? | 02:35 |
| ActionParsnip | SmileyChris: maybe its what the cool kids do these days...who understands those kids | 02:35 |
| intrader | Anyone, I have a /home backup done via deja on 10.10. Another laptop has been prepared with 11.10. Attempt to do a full restore using deja fails on account of deja asking for Encryption password. I did not write the backup with encryption, so I don't understand why it wants a password. How do I restore? | 02:35 |
| ActionParsnip | godmachine: http://www.wmlcloud.com/linux/how-to-activate-screen-saver-in-ubuntu-11-10-oneiric-ocelot/ | 02:36 |
| flanagan | use your user paw | 02:36 |
| roguetech | not click press alt+f2 :-) | 02:36 |
| godmachine | ActionParsnip, was a simple yes or no question :P | 02:36 |
| user | ty roguetech... i was missing the space before -d lol | 02:36 |
| DarwinSurvivor | godmachine: yes it does, i just don't think it has animations yet (see #gnome to ask about the screensaver). If you want animations, try xscreensaver | 02:36 |
| godmachine | ActionParsnip, was just wondering if it was installed or if it wasn't showing up in unity | 02:36 |
| schindler | wat time is the release tomorrow? | 02:37 |
| bazhang | schindler, no set time | 02:37 |
| DarwinSurvivor | !outyet | schindler | 02:37 |
| ubottu | schindler: Nope! Ubuntu 12.04 is scheduled for release sometime on April 26th. You can party in #ubuntu-release-party while you're waiting! | 02:37 |
| ActionParsnip | godmachine: not by default, but its easy to setup | 02:37 |

| phong_ | hi guys, is there a way to tell ubuntu to go to root of the hard drive when i do ssh in or sftp? | 02:39 |
| phong_ | current it automatic go to my home directory | 02:39 |
| schindler | login as root | 02:39 |
| godmachine | what about notification icons. does xchat not fit in the panel tray in unity? i notice the notifications work on the launcher, but i'd rather see the X icon up by the clock if at all possible | 02:39 |
| phong_ | i want it to automatic to go to / | 02:39 |
| Guest__ | phong_ set your home to / if that is really what you want. | 02:39 |
| phong_ | how? | 02:39 |
| ActionParsnip | phong_: could make a new user and add: cd / to the bottom of ~/.bashrc | 02:39 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: you can also add "cd /" to your .bashrc | 02:39 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: that won't affect scp though | 02:40 |
| phong_ | where is that file? | 02:40 |
| ActionParsnip | schindler: logging in as root is not only not recommended, it willl default to /root (root's home) | 02:40 |
| Guest__ | phong_ go with DarwinSurvivor's suggestion | 02:40 |
| SmileyChris | phong_: ~/.bashrc | 02:40 |
| Guest__ | phong_ in ~ | 02:40 |
| phong_ | ok | 02:40 |
| phong_ | thanks brb let me do that | 02:40 |
| skyistohigh | Hey | 02:41 |
| skyistohigh | Just checking if I manage to set this up..? Do you guys copy? | 02:41 |
| schindler | wats the diff between x and wayland? | 02:41 |
| phong_ | Guest__, it has alot of text in it | 02:41 |
| phong_ | where about to add it? | 02:41 |
| bazhang | skyistohigh, yes | 02:41 |
| phong_ | end of the file? | 02:41 |
| Guest__ | phong_ anywhere | 02:41 |
| phong_ | ok thanks | 02:41 |
| violinappren | schindler: offtopic and it's a long story | 02:41 |
| rinzler | pavucontrol connection to pulse audio failed. what do I need to look for? | 02:41 |
| Guest__ | phong_ end would be a good idea | 02:41 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: I would *not* set your home folder to / as that will prevent any utilities from loading settings, etc (ex: .vimrc would have to be in /) | 02:42 |
| bazhang | schindler, thats quite extensive, please check the web | 02:42 |
| violinappren | rinzler: alt + f2, pulseaudio, enter and try again ? | 02:42 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: setting in .bashrc is *definitely* a lot safer | 02:42 |
| skyistohigh | Installed BT on my old computer, hard to find the needed drivers and such.. I'm freaked out.. | 02:42 |
| phong_ | DarwinSurvivor, reason is that when i use Iphone 4 , FTP2go which doesn't has the go to parent folder | 02:42 |
| bazhang | skyistohigh, bt is not supported here | 02:43 |

| phong_ | DarwinSurvivor, i'm lost | 02:43 |
| phong_ | DarwinSurvivor, just tell me where to edit the file then | 02:43 |
| phong_ | didn't u tell me to edit ~/.bashrc ? | 02:43 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: hold on, you may have a different issue there | 02:43 |
| violinappren | phong_: nano ~/.bashrc | 02:43 |
| phong_ | isn't it the same file? | 02:43 |
| skyistohigh | How do I check my private msges? | 02:44 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: what does ftp have to do with ssh...? | 02:44 |
| violinappren | phong_: that will NOT change your home, will just automatically change directory after you login | 02:44 |
| bazhang | skyistohigh, /join #backtrack-linux | 02:44 |
| skyistohigh | There we go, o/ | 02:44 |
| phong_ | violinappren, exactly what i want to do | 02:44 |
| phong_ | because iphone app..ftp2go doesn't have 'go to parent' | 02:44 |
| phong_ | it start with 'home' folder | 02:44 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: and what does ftp2go do? | 02:45 |
| rinzler | how do I set pulseaudio back to default configuration? | 02:45 |
| phong_ | it is sftp | 02:45 |
| violinappren | phong_: it will only be useful you login to an interactive shell, and will not be effective while using an SFTP client | 02:45 |
| phong_ | hard for me to explain, do u ever use AndFTP for android? | 02:45 |
| violinappren | rinzler: check in "Startup Applications" in settings if it's set to start on login | 02:45 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: why not create a symlink to / "ln -s / ~/root" then go into that folder using ftp2go? | 02:46 |
| phong_ | u can always go to parent folder | 02:46 |
| andrew[andrboot] | Hi guys, using 12.04 lts beta, and my media keys work immediatly after login, however it appears when unity loads aka "dock" they stop. is there a way around/fix? | 02:46 |
| phong_ | and ftp2go for iphone doesn't have a link go to parent | 02:46 |
| phong_ | so after i sftp in ,, it begin with my home directory | 02:46 |
| phong_ | DarwinSurvivor, how to do it? | 02:47 |
| blackbear008 | ? | 02:47 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: you should also be able to set the start folder in ftp2go to / instead of ~/ (ex: sftp://user@ip://) | 02:47 |
| violinappren | phong_: and people are just supposed to .. go down ? you should look close in that app | 02:47 |
| andrew[andrboot] | ah | 02:47 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: check the settings for that connection, there should be a default folder override of some kind | 02:47 |
| phong_ | DarwinSurvivor, let me try with ur suggestion | 02:47 |
| phong_ | brb | 02:47 |
| skyistohigh | Does anyone here manage to play minecraft on linux? | 02:48 |
| rinzler | violinappren: not seeing it in the settings menu, do you know the name of it to launch from terminal? | 02:48 |
| DarwinSurvivor | rule #1 of linux support: "Find the ROOT issue" :P | 02:48 |
| bazhang | skyistohigh, on backtrack? | 02:48 |
| phong_ | DarwinSurvivor, actually the program for iphone is 'FTP On The Go' | 02:48 |
| phong_ | ;) | 02:48 |
| violinappren | rinzler: look for "startup" in the dash? | 02:48 |
| skyistohigh | No, on ubuntu.. | 02:48 |
| rinzler | violinappren: dash? | 02:48 |
| bazhang | skyistohigh, what version of ubuntu are you on | 02:49 |
| rodayo | When you change your wallpaper in precise the color of unity also changes with it...is there anyway to override this and assign one color at all times? | 02:49 |
| violinappren | rinzler: unity search box | 02:49 |
| phong_ | error .....i did this: myipaddress:port/ | 02:49 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: what protocol is it using? Unless you installed an ftp server, it's using something else (ex: sftp, scp, ssh, etc) | 02:49 |
| === nphase_ is now known as nphase | ||
| phong_ | it gives : Error openning directory | 02:49 |
| rinzler | violinappren: ahh, well I'm using xfce, so that may throw a kink in things if you din't know that :P | 02:49 |
| phong_ | SFTP | 02:49 |
| skyistohigh | The newest | 02:49 |
| phong_ | i have port 22 for sftp | 02:49 |
| violinappren | rinzler: i use it too. cheers! | 02:50 |
| rinzler | violinappren: LOADS better than unity | 02:50 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: ok, so that's basically interactive scp (which does use ssh). If your app doesn't support changing the "root" directory, just create a symlink on your ubuntu box and go into that | 02:50 |
| bazhang | skyistohigh, what does lsb_release -a return in the terminal pastebin it | 02:50 |
| phong_ | yeap | 02:50 |
| skyistohigh | 11.10 to be exact.. | 02:50 |
| DarwinSurvivor | ex: "ln -s / ~/root" will make "~/root" the same as "/" | 02:50 |
| bazhang | !paste | skyistohigh | 02:51 |

| phong_ | well show me how to do it in ubuntu | 02:51 |
| violinappren | rinzler: check if you have an entry for pulse in ~/.config/autostart .. if so, rm it | 02:51 |
| DarwinSurvivor | then you can just go into "~root/" and work from there :D | 02:51 |
| phong_ | the ftp on the go dont' support root changing | 02:51 |
| phong_ | it will go to my home lol | 02:51 |
| nontechnical | <violinappren> thans for your help, the files copied but it doesnt seem to be working | 02:51 |
| phong_ | i can't go back to root ;) | 02:51 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: log into your ubuntu box and type "ln -s / ~/root" | 02:51 |
| phong_ | nothing allow me to do that....but AndFTP will do it ;) on android phone | 02:51 |
| DarwinSurvivor | then you can just go into "~/root/" and work from there :D (sorry for typo in last version) | 02:51 |
| violinappren | nontechnical: the plugin may be older/incompatible with current version of gedit | 02:51 |
| phong_ | DarwinSurvivor, do i have to do that everytime ? | 02:52 |
| nontechnical | yeah, thanks anyway - appreciate the help | 02:52 |
| violinappren | nontechnical: np | 02:52 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: you only have to run "ln" once (that creates a symlink, sort of like a shortcut), then each time you connect just go into the "root" folder | 02:52 |
| DarwinSurvivor | !symlink | phong_ | 02:53 |
| ubottu | phong_: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome), K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE), or Menu -> Accessories -> LXTerminal (LXDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 02:53 |
| DarwinSurvivor | darn, hopped that would be more specific :( | 02:53 |
| phong_ | DarwinSurvivor, my god | 02:53 |
| phong_ | darm u | 02:53 |
| phong_ | so good | 02:53 |
| phong_ | oh my god, u're super good | 02:53 |
| phong_ | i salute you! | 02:54 |
| phong_ | all i do is click root folder | 02:54 |
| phong_ | and it go to root ;) | 02:54 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: you're welcome | 02:54 |
| rinzler | violinappren: only entry in that folder is "xfce4-settings-helper-autostart.desktop" | 02:54 |
| phong_ | how did u figure that out? | 02:54 |
| phong_ | DarwinSurvivor, what is pass mode and active mode meant? | 02:54 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: now you know why I always find the original problem when someone asks a weird question, makes the solution WAY simpler :P | 02:54 |
| violinappren | rinzler: what did you do that messed up pulse? edited any conf files? | 02:55 |
| violinappren | rinzler: it might have just crashed | 02:55 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: I use symlinks on a regular basis, they are a very common tool on the command line | 02:55 |
| skyistohigh | What? | 02:55 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: passive mode and active mode only apply to FTP and changes the way it handles ports, since you are using sftp (which uses ssh instead of ftp), it does not apply | 02:56 |
| phong_ | oh | 02:56 |

| violinappren | phong_: ln -s target link_name | 02:58 |
| phong_ | let me try ;) | 02:59 |
| DarwinSurvivor | phong_: ln, not ls, and remove the / in the second part | 02:59 |

| DarwinSurvivor | skyistohigh: is the file executable? | 03:11 |
| violinappren | skyistohigh: chmod u+x file.run; ./file.run | 03:12 |
| skyistohigh | No, it was not.. | 03:12 |
| DarwinSurvivor | and where did it come from? .run files are typically used to install binary drivers and apps and are *notorious* for F*($%ing up machines | 03:12 |

| violinappren | skyistohigh: then sudo ./file.run | 03:14 |

| skyistohigh | This is a 6years old graphic card.. | 03:15 |
| violinappren | Bennlucky7: su is not enabled by default on ubuntu | 03:15 |
| skyistohigh | even older, it's from 2005 | 03:15 |
| DarwinSurvivor | skyistohigh: installing graphic drivers from a .run file is EXTREMELY dangerous. I have hose many machines doing that. Why not use the ones in the repository? | 03:15 |

| ApocGoD | Wb Darwin. | 03:57 |
| ApocGoD | Any idea on myissue? | 03:57 |
| z3r0d3rp | or strictly HUD | 03:57 |

| Maccer | Does the CD version of Ubuntu 11.x include build-essentials and other build tools? I need to compile network drivers not available by default. :( | 03:57 |
| === mj is now known as Guest43613 | ||
| z3r0d3rp | I would help but I am on vicodin due to wisdom teeth removal and playing the end of HL1 | 03:58 |
| z3r0d3rp | so my focus is a bit off | 03:58 |
| Maccer | ( as well as linux-headers ) | 03:58 |
| Trel | I just installed a server, and when it got to the network setup, I didn't have a connection, so I choose to configure later. I now have a network connection, what do I need to do to make it connect (dhcp) and connect on subsequent reboots. | 04:00 |
| z3r0d3rp | if anyone knows whether a. I can get the unified program menus working in 11.10 or whether they will keep them in 12.02 that would be appreciated | 04:00 |
| Trel | (this is ubuntu 11 server) | 04:00 |
| Trel | will it just be sudo eth(whatever) up? | 04:00 |
| z3r0d3rp | dhclient eth0 | 04:00 |
| z3r0d3rp | sudo !! | 04:00 |
| z3r0d3rp | etc | 04:01 |
| DarwinSurvivor | ApocGoD: could you run dmesg, then unplug and replug the webcam, then run demsg again? | 04:01 |
| Trel | will that stick on reboots, z3r0d3rp? | 04:01 |
| ApocGoD | DarwinSurvivor, Just a moment | 04:01 |
| DarwinSurvivor | then post both dmesg's so we can tell which part is related to the webcam | 04:01 |
| z3r0d3rp | well you have to config your connection | 04:01 |
| z3r0d3rp | a server should not be dhcp | 04:01 |
| z3r0d3rp | you will need to forward ports etc | 04:01 |
| z3r0d3rp | you should ifconfig it | 04:02 |
| z3r0d3rp | then reserve it in your router | 04:02 |
| z3r0d3rp | then forward for ssh apache etc | 04:02 |
| z3r0d3rp | but to get it to work now | 04:02 |
| z3r0d3rp | you can do sudo dhclient eth0 | 04:02 |
| mdel | hey all - if I'm installing ubuntu in Parallels 7 on mac, what is the proper image to download? | 04:03 |
| mdel | x86 or AMD64? (core 2 duo) | 04:03 |
| z3r0d3rp | 64 | 04:03 |
| ApocGoD | DarwinSurvivor, http://pastebin.com/SPDsX8hu | 04:03 |
| z3r0d3rp | either | 04:03 |
| mdel | also I see listed an image that explicitly says "Mac" but I dont know if that applies when running in a VM | 04:03 |
| z3r0d3rp | basically I suggest using 64 on a 64 bit processor | 04:03 |
| z3r0d3rp | no it doesn't | 04:03 |
| mdel | ok that makes sense | 04:04 |
| z3r0d3rp | a vm emulates a pc hardware | 04:04 |
| mdel | awesome... thanks! | 04:04 |
| z3r0d3rp | the mac image is probably for PPC | 04:04 |
| mdel | it says AMD64 Mac | 04:04 |
| robertzaccour | kdenlive does everything fine except for rendering when I make a title clip. It always fails to render. any suggestions? | 04:04 |
| robertzaccour | would it make a difference if I was using it in KDE perhaps? | 04:04 |
| z3r0d3rp | ok then it is made with driver support | 04:04 |
| mdel | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ | 04:04 |
| z3r0d3rp | for bare metal install | 04:05 |
| === LukeNukem is now known as DarthVader | ||
| mdel | why wouldn't the driver support just be included...? | 04:05 |
| z3r0d3rp | I would reccomend installing it in a partition with the mac image | 04:05 |
| mdel | i guess for size | 04:05 |
| z3r0d3rp | that way you can fully utilize the system | 04:05 |
| z3r0d3rp | vm's are ok but... | 04:05 |
| bodom | Hi there, I'm trying to solve a routing issue. Is there a way i can push a route to all my LAN clients? | 04:05 |
| mdel | z3r0d3rp: yeah... tried that, a TON | 04:05 |
| mdel | its definitely not stable | 04:06 |
| z3r0d3rp | I have 10.10 running on my macbook g5 | 04:06 |
| mdel | yeah, I think after 11.04 support is crappy | 04:06 |
| z3r0d3rp | or was it 10.04 | 04:06 |
| mdel | or at least not as solid | 04:06 |
| Maccer | Can some one do me a favor and retrieve the build-essentials and linux-header packages for what ever kernel 11.x has? (I have no internet drivers) | 04:06 |
| Trel | z3r0d3rp: I give the server it's IP from my router (static DHCP), I just need to know if using dhclient will stick | 04:06 |
| mdel | also i would need to access the files read/write, and I would want to use Ubuntu as my main OS if I installed it | 04:06 |
| z3r0d3rp | maccer google | 04:07 |
| Maccer | z3r0d3rp: No seriously. | 04:07 |
| mdel | which means I would need to use fuse on osx... which isn't 100% safe | 04:07 |
| Maccer | I'm on windows so... | 04:07 |
| z3r0d3rp | Trel, you should configure it in ifconfig | 04:07 |
| z3r0d3rp | and it will stick | 04:07 |
| z3r0d3rp | I repeat... servers are not meant to use dhcp | 04:08 |
| Trel | z3r0d3rp: is there a basic tutorial, or is it ifconfig <interface> up, provided it's dhcp | 04:08 |
| mdel | man ifconfig | 04:08 |
| z3r0d3rp | ^ | 04:08 |
| mdel | always step 1 | 04:09 |
| Trel | z3r0d3rp: this server is behind a router with static dhcp | 04:09 |
| DarwinSurvivor | ApocGoD: I'm not seeing any fatal errors, but there appears to be something ELSE on your system that ubuntu doesn't like... | 04:09 |
| z3r0d3rp | dhcp is for easy configuration of client computers in SOHO or public networks | 04:09 |
| ApocGoD | DarwinSurvivor, What would that be? Any idea? | 04:09 |
| dirkle | does anyone have experience with dual booting Win7 and Ubuntu using UEFI? I've followed /community/UEFIBooting but my system is still booting straight into Windows | 04:09 |
| z3r0d3rp | by definition it is not for servers | 04:09 |
| DarwinSurvivor | something in a usb port. is it a desktop or laptop? | 04:09 |
| Trel | z3r0d3rp: my current router setup will not allow something to connect if it's not assigned an IP via DHCP, hence, I need to use dhcp. | 04:09 |
| ApocGoD | Desktop | 04:10 |
| ApocGoD | The three things that are plugged in via usb are a mouse, keyboard and webcam. | 04:10 |
| z3r0d3rp | Trel you can assign an ip in your router config outside of the dhcp pool | 04:10 |
| DarwinSurvivor | ApocGoD: ok, is there anything else connected to the usb ports? | 04:10 |
| ApocGoD | I unplugged my SD cardreader to plug in the webcam. | 04:10 |
| z3r0d3rp | or just reserve a dhcp address | 04:10 |
| z3r0d3rp | and use ifconfig to perm assign it | 04:11 |
| mdel | or assign it by mac | 04:11 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Trel: most routers start dhcp at xxx.xxx.x.100 or something and have their own ip as .1 or .2 so anything from .3 to .99 should be available for static IP's | 04:11 |
| mdel | on the router | 04:11 |
| Trel | z3r0d3rp, I don't want to argue my network setup. I can do static dhcp, but I cannot allow any machine to connect unless it's IP is assigned via DHCP | 04:11 |
| z3r0d3rp | yeah that is how the router reserves it | 04:11 |
| DarwinSurvivor | ApocGoD: anything else (keyboard, mouse, printer, scanner, camera, external usb, flash drive, etc)? | 04:11 |
| z3r0d3rp | Trel that makes no sense | 04:12 |
| mdel | no arguing... just use your network in the way described, and it will work | 04:12 |
| z3r0d3rp | use dhclient for now | 04:12 |
| z3r0d3rp | then google ifconfig | 04:12 |
| z3r0d3rp | I won't walk you through it | 04:12 |
| ApocGoD | DarwinSurvivor, keyboard, mouse, webcam at the moment. I unplugged my SD cardreader to plug in the webcam | 04:12 |
| Trel | z3r0d3rp: I will do so, and for what it's worth, it's due to the way this network is setup by the owner. I can't argue with him, so I can only do what he lets me. | 04:12 |
| z3r0d3rp | ok that makes sense | 04:13 |
| z3r0d3rp | usually routers keep the dhcp lease anyway | 04:13 |
| ghost_ | Does anyone know what time today ubuntu 12.04 will be released | 04:13 |
| z3r0d3rp | but why you are using a server inside someone else's network is problematic | 04:13 |
| mdel | Trel: you could try to find an open IP and use DHCP with manual IP | 04:13 |
| z3r0d3rp | you will not be able to forward ports | 04:13 |
| DarwinSurvivor | ok, can you run "watch 'dmesg | tail' " and then unplug ALL usb device and see if you still keep getting new usb errors? if you get none, start plugging stuff in 1 at a time to see if any other devices are causing errors. that will help us read your dmesg more clearly | 04:14 |
| ApocGoD | ok | 04:14 |
| z3r0d3rp | use dhcp first... then assign the ip it gives you as static | 04:14 |
| z3r0d3rp | the router will almost certainly keep the lease as long as the machine is up and doesn't go off for a long time | 04:14 |
| Trel | z3r0d3rp, it's a minecraft server for use on an intranet. mdel, if the machine does not obtain it's IP via DHCP, it will be blocked, so once I switch to static, I'll get blocked when it tries to connect next. | 04:14 |
| z3r0d3rp | no it won't | 04:15 |
| mdel | you aren't going to be able to host minecraft | 04:15 |
| mdel | you cant open ports | 04:15 |
| mdel | fail | 04:15 |
| Trel | he manually blocks it | 04:15 |
| z3r0d3rp | he said it's on a lan | 04:15 |
| BaconAttack_ | Why would he need ports open on a lan | 04:15 |
| mdel | ah, my bad | 04:15 |
| Trel | It's a company minecraft server. | 04:15 |
| mdel | missed that cause webchat suckkkks | 04:15 |
| robertzaccour | kdenlive does everything fine except for rendering when I make a title clip. It always fails to render. any suggestions? | 04:15 |
| z3r0d3rp | the router will give you an ip via dhcp then you can keep it | 04:15 |
| DarwinSurvivor | Trel: are you trying to get us to help you set up a minecraft server at your workplace without IT finding out...? | 04:16 |
| ApocGoD | Darwin, I found the issue. It's my SD card reader. | 04:16 |
| z3r0d3rp | the router is set up to keep ip leases for a given period of time | 04:16 |
| z3r0d3rp | as to allow for downtime | 04:16 |
| Trel | DarwinSurvivor: considering the owner is setting the static dhcp, no. | 04:16 |
| z3r0d3rp | so you should get the same one every time you ask for one | 04:16 |
| Trel | I'm just very constrained by his weird-ass rules. | 04:16 |
| z3r0d3rp | provided the lease doesn't expire | 04:16 |
| z3r0d3rp | it's a common setup | 04:16 |
| mdel | im not even sure what the rules are meant to do... | 04:17 |
| waxgoblin | hey is anyone here familar with moneypak greendot? | 04:17 |
| z3r0d3rp | trel use dhclient | 04:17 |
| mdel | waxgoblin: seriously | 04:17 |
| DarwinSurvivor | ApocGoD: ok, leave that unplugged, wait a minute, run dmesg (pastebin it), plug in webcam, run dmesg (pastebin it), lsusb (pastebin it), unplug webcam (pastebin it) | 04:17 |

| Jordan_U | Trel: You want to configure /etc/network/interfaceI | 04:17 |
| z3r0d3rp | then set up the ip it gives you as a static ip for that server | 04:17 |
| z3r0d3rp | done deal | 04:17 |

| ApocGoD | @DarwinSurvivor, It was interfering with the mouse, since it's all plugged into a USB hub. Thanks for your help :D | 04:19 |
| z3r0d3rp | not to be rude (blame the vicodin) | 04:19 |
| mdel | z3r0d3rp: too much time spent playing minecraft | 04:19 |
| DarwinSurvivor | ApocGoD: ah, cheap hubs can do that :P | 04:20 |
| ApocGoD | @DarwinSurvivor, Mhm, now to just plug it in normally, haha. Thanks | 04:20 |
| joemppe | I'm suppoesd to be setting up a company minecraft server. I can set up an IP address but I've never played minecraft. is that better or worse? | 04:20 |

| nontechnical | quick question - if i cd into a file, but it's empty and i want to add content to it from the terminal, what commands do i run? | 04:25 |
| sacarlson | what package is best to support tor network on Lubuntu? when I look at tork I see it will install a large group of libs | 04:26 |

| nontechnical | im creating a https server | 04:26 |
| nontechnical | i could use gedit, but wondering if theres a way to do it in terminal | 04:26 |
| dr_willis | you can make a file with the touch or echo commands | 04:27 |
| mdel | !editors | nontechnical | 04:27 |

| z3r0d3rp | you can also directly output to a file | 04:27 |
| z3r0d3rp | but that is more advanced | 04:28 |
| DarwinSurvivor | nontechnical: nano is easiest for beginners | 04:28 |
| z3r0d3rp | how do bash | 04:28 |

| sacarlson | DarwinSurvivor: I did a search in synaptic on Lubuntu and didn't see the tor package, I am now apt-get update; to see if it fills in | 04:29 |
| nontechnical | ok thanks <darwinsurvivor> | 04:29 |
| z3r0d3rp | emacs fo lyfe | 04:29 |

| wylde | DarwinSurvivor: I know :) I was getting there, you can use > to an empty file | 04:29 |
| z3r0d3rp | no stomp | 04:29 |
| mdel | that command was in correct anyway | 04:29 |

| ubottu | arinov: Nope! Ubuntu 12.04 is scheduled for release sometime on April 26th. You can party in #ubuntu-release-party while you're waiting! | 04:41 |
| centaur5 | z3r0d3rp, I guess I'll have to try that out. I want to replicate desktop wallpaper and configurations in the new "system settings" control panel. | 04:41 |
| DarwinSurvivor | z3r0d3rp: oh, oops. | 04:42 |
| a_b0y | umm, isn't it April 26th today?? | 04:42 |
| DarwinSurvivor | a_b0y: yes, but they didn't say it would be release in the morning now did they? :P | 04:42 |
| z3r0d3rp | there is also gconf and gconfd | 04:42 |
| joemppe | April 26th what timezone? :P | 04:42 |
| kip | Can not get sun java to install following the directions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java http://paste.ubuntu.com/946775/ | 04:43 |
| a_b0y | when is the Lunbuntu 12.04 going to be released today too? | 04:43 |
| MaskilPDX | I know people are already asking.... Can I get 12.04 yet? | 04:43 |

| z3r0d3rp | I just hope unified menus are still there because using HUD for certain programs is going to suck | 04:43 |
| thesheff17 | kip, due to oracle java won't be available anymore | 04:43 |
| centaur5 | z3r0d3rp, Right, i copied gconf and gnome2 as those were the directories that used to accomplish my setting configurations now those directories are apparently outdated. | 04:43 |
| z3r0d3rp | try .config also | 04:44 |
| thesheff17 | you can use openjdk | 04:44 |
| kip | Then they need to change the web page on how to get it. | 04:44 |
| thesheff17 | or download java manually | 04:44 |
| thesheff17 | yea I know | 04:44 |
| thesheff17 | tons of places are like this | 04:44 |
| z3r0d3rp | I don't think I ever use java for anything | 04:45 |
| centaur5 | z3r0d3rp, Okay, I'll .config now. Thanks for the suggestion. | 04:45 |
| kip | The program I have needs sun java JRE 6. And the instructions on how to install it manually are broken. | 04:45 |
| z3r0d3rp | kip can't you get it in restricted extras | 04:45 |
| kip | They do not work. | 04:45 |
| thesheff17 | just download from sun | 04:45 |
| z3r0d3rp | or is that removed? | 04:45 |
| DarwinSurvivor | kip: did you try openjdk from the repos? | 04:45 |
| thesheff17 | or oracle now | 04:45 |
| kip | The instructions say Sun Java. | 04:46 |
| z3r0d3rp | kip try adding the mint repos | 04:46 |
| z3r0d3rp | I think mint still has it for 11.10 | 04:46 |

| thesheff17 | lol | 04:46 |
| kip | The SW is a pain to install, and there are enough problems without introducing a different java. | 04:47 |
| kip | How do we change the documentation page to say the instructions do not work? | 04:48 |
| z3r0d3rp | http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre-6u31-download-1501637.html | 04:48 |
| z3r0d3rp | this is java 6 broskie | 04:48 |
| graytron | Ubuntu homepage stopped responding | 04:48 |
| a_b0y | so is Lunbuntu 12.04 going to be released today too? | 04:49 |
| kip | But that does not install it in the right place or set up all of the links. | 04:49 |
| awisepilot | home page works fine | 04:49 |
| z3r0d3rp | the ubuntu package doesn't work for 6? | 04:49 |
| DarwinSurvivor | a_b0y: nobody in here knows that. | 04:49 |
| z3r0d3rp | nvm | 04:50 |
| kip | I followed the instructions from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java | 04:50 |
| kip | They do not work. | 04:51 |
| === Lupinedk is now known as lupinedk | ||
| DarwinSurvivor | kip what didn't work? it wouldn't install, wouldn't run, what errors did you get? | 04:52 |
| DarwinSurvivor | kip openjdk should install fine. | 04:52 |

| awisepilot | Success 10.04LTS boots on the Dell 1950! 11.10 is buggy with a race condition on dual nic card machines. | 04:54 |
| kip | PPA did not work either. There was a download erroor twice. | 04:54 |
| awisepilot | I hope the bug is fixed in 12 | 04:54 |
| DarwinSurvivor | kip have you tried openjdk? that is the recommended one to use since Oracle is F*$$($#ing up the other ones for linux users | 04:54 |
| kapsdd | how many hrs are remaining for Ubuntu 12.04 release? | 04:55 |
| Valtam | ... | 04:55 |
| kip | I have not tried it, because the author of the SW said to use Sun Java 6, and it is a PITA to install and get right, and I do not want another thing that could go wrong. | 04:56 |
| DarwinSurvivor | !outyet | kapsdd | 04:56 |
| ubottu | kapsdd: Nope! Ubuntu 12.04 is scheduled for release sometime on April 26th. You can party in #ubuntu-release-party while you're waiting! | 04:56 |
| Valtam | how many times do we have to hear that question today | 04:56 |
| z3r0d3rp | lol | 04:56 |
| z3r0d3rp | don't make me pull this irc over | 04:56 |
| DarwinSurvivor | kip, well ubuntu recommends openjdk, so give that a try | 04:56 |

| a_b0y | ubuntu should make an actual smartphone O/S | 04:59 |
| === mobile is now known as ex0z | ||
| DarwinSurvivor | a_b0y: you mean like this? http://www.ubuntu.com/devices/android | 05:00 |
| a_b0y | that just piggybacks off of android | 05:01 |
| DarwinSurvivor | a_b0y: the problem is hardware companies using locked down hardware and using binary blobs into android. | 05:02 |
| a_b0y | i don't trust google with my privacy and especially the remote access they have on all android phones | 05:02 |
| Nach0z | just found a typo on that page >_> | 05:02 |
| DarwinSurvivor | and canonical has clearly stated that they are NOT interrested in handling hardware, they will just certify it as "works" | 05:03 |
| DarwinSurvivor | a_b0y: the n900 runs debian with apt-get and everything, you can get them used on ebay for pretty cheap | 05:03 |
| awisepilot | DarwinSurvivor: Finally got Ubuntu to run on Dell 1950 server and boot. How do you config su passwd | 05:03 |
| a_b0y | yeah i saw some youtube videos of people installing the standard ubuntu o/s on their phones lol | 05:04 |
| DarwinSurvivor | awisepilot: you shouldn't need to have a password set, but if you REALLY do, "sudo passwd" | 05:04 |
| awisepilot | why not set a psswd | 05:04 |
| Flannel | awisepilot: why set one? | 05:04 |
| a_b0y | smartphone hardware compatibility should be the same as PC compatibility | 05:05 |
| rinzler | sooo.. having multiple desktops, how would I be able to choose which one is represented during boot? | 05:05 |
| awisepilot | we are asking the same questions with two points of view. What are the pros and cons? | 05:05 |
| install-wizard | Sudo -i is better tan a passwd | 05:06 |
| install-wizard | Feels like a more secure solution | 05:06 |
| Flannel | awisepilot: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo covers the pros and cons of each method | 05:06 |
| z3r0d3rp | I saw people dual booting android and BT5 R2 at Black Hat | 05:06 |
| a_b0y | i actually trust microsoft more than google, since organizations with lots of private data use microsoft | 05:06 |
| z3r0d3rp | didn't function as a phone in BT though | 05:07 |
| strata | is ubuntu nix? | 05:07 |
| awisepilot | Let me read Flannel, thatnks | 05:07 |
| awisepilot | Let me read Flannel, thanks | 05:07 |
| z3r0d3rp | Derpnix kernel 1.0 | 05:07 |
| strata | err unix? | 05:08 |
| install-wizard | Yes | 05:09 |
| strata | cool thanks! | 05:10 |
| awisepilot | Does Ubuntu have a similar interface like SLES called Yast? | 05:12 |
| paulsomebody | Can anyone help me understand when the release of 12.04 will happen in terms of hours? | 05:13 |
| a_b0y | 1am est | 05:14 |
| a_b0y | maybe :P | 05:14 |
| install-wizard | "Soon" | 05:14 |

| ubottu | paulsomebody: Nope! Ubuntu 12.04 is scheduled for release sometime on April 26th. You can party in #ubuntu-release-party while you're waiting! | 05:14 |
| tdmackey | awisepilot: apt | 05:15 |
| lykwydchykyn | awisepilot: not exactly; there's a settings panel, but it lacks all the server and sysadmin stuff YAST has. | 05:15 |
| * paulsomebody wonders why does everyone is so eager to provide pointless uninformative answers. | 05:15 | |
| sacarlson | would vidalia be a good gui candidate to control tor in Lubuntu? I got tor installed now just want a gui to play with it | 05:15 |
| paulsomebody | xangua: Thank you. | 05:15 |
| Flannel | paulsomebody: sometime after it becomes April 26th in Kiritimati (it already has) and sometime before it becomes April 27th in Midway. | 05:15 |
| dr-willis | there is no set time for release | 05:15 |
| paulsomebody | Flannel: Thank you, oh wizard of time zones. | 05:15 |
| Flannel | paulsomebody: That's as close as anyone other than those actually pushing the big red button can get you at this point. | 05:16 |
| yuri__ | HELP! I went to change mawk out for gawk and muon uninstalled 24 files and now it won't install ANYTHING. :( I just get a error 127. | 05:16 |
| yuri__ | Muon even uninstalled my bash shell. :( | 05:19 |
| awisepilot | Tried apt and its not install in the default 10.04 setup. Type: sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk and it complained and did not install apt. Am I missing something? | 05:19 |
| rahrah | Impressive | 05:19 |
| lykwydchykyn | awisepilot: apt is an integral part of Ubuntu. It's not possible for it not to be installed. | 05:21 |
| awisepilot | Interesting, I was asking about a compatible application like yast and I was given apt. | 05:23 |
| awisepilot | I guess apt is not the answer, what is? | 05:24 |
| lykwydchykyn | there is nothing analogous to yast in ubuntu | 05:24 |
| rahrah | If the command gave you an error post the error | 05:24 |
| install-wizard | Maybe somebody made a tool wich is like yast for ubuntu | 05:24 |
| yuri__ | UGh. I just tried apt-get clean and purge and install for bash and nothing. Just a error 127 still. :( | 05:25 |
| lykwydchykyn | Probably the closest you can get to YAST in Ubuntu is webmin | 05:25 |
| awisepilot | cool, how do you run that | 05:26 |
| lykwydchykyn | It's a web-based thing; you download it from webmin's website and then connect in a browser | 05:26 |
| wylde | !webmin | 05:27 |
| 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. | 05:27 |
| lykwydchykyn | well, if you say so; works fine for me | 05:28 |
| shpeka | to all users using 11.10 : DO NOT start update trough the update manager, use only the terminal "apt-get update" otherwise your window frames will dissapear and PulseAudio will fail! | 05:30 |
| z3r0d3rp | wat | 05:30 |
| yuri__ | Alright. Is there a file that I need to delete or something to get my aptitude back? I just lost half my system just because I tried to change out mawk for gawk. I'm tired of reinstalling entires OS's after all the time I spent reinstalling Windoze. | 05:31 |
| jswagner | that makes no sense | 05:31 |
| yuri__ | It may not. But I was using Muon to swap them out and it decided to remove 24 packages for no reason. I don't even have bash anymore. | 05:31 |
| z3r0d3rp | reinstall mawk | 05:31 |
| yuri__ | I can't. Error 127. | 05:31 |
| jswagner | opening Update Manager and clicking 'Update' is the same as typing 'apt-get update' at a terminal. | 05:32 |
| shpeka | remember 11.10 is not LTS so consider installing 11.04 for better support | 05:32 |
| jswagner | lol | 05:32 |
| z3r0d3rp | 11.04 isn't lts either | 05:32 |
| jswagner | shpeka what are you doing | 05:32 |
| L3top | shpeka: 10.04 is LTS | 05:32 |
| shpeka | yes it is | 05:32 |
| z3r0d3rp | nope.jpg | 05:32 |
| L3top | No, it is not. | 05:32 |
| jswagner | 10.04 and 12.04 are LTS. | 05:33 |
| xangua | shpeka: neither 11.04 is LTS | 05:33 |
| shpeka | my opinion is not to start an update | 05:33 |
| z3r0d3rp | ITT: people who can't package manager | 05:33 |
| z3r0d3rp | lol | 05:33 |
| shpeka | if u start update everything will be f*cked | 05:33 |
| yuri__ | Dito. Last update I did I got an error 127 and had to reinstall Ubuntu. | 05:33 |
| z3r0d3rp | shepka you fail GTFO | 05:33 |
| xangua | !language | shpeka | 05:33 |
| ubottu | shpeka: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 05:33 |
| yuri__ | I can't install or uninstall ANYTHING. It's ALL error 127. | 05:34 |
| jswagner | i just ran update 15 minutes ago and it was fine | 05:34 |
| shpeka | also do not force restart when you are installing a .deb package | 05:34 |
| z3r0d3rp | people install broken PPA's then run update and break things | 05:34 |
| z3r0d3rp | protip: you screwed it up | 05:35 |
| iceroot_ | jswagner: just for your info. Running update through update-manager and using "sudo apt-get update" are totally different things and the second will not update your system, just the status of the PACKAGES files | 05:35 |
| z3r0d3rp | lol iceroot_ | 05:35 |
| iceroot_ | z3r0d3rp: yes? | 05:35 |
| L3top | yuri__: do you have wget still? | 05:35 |
| z3r0d3rp | I think he meant upgrade | 05:35 |
| jswagner | iceroot_: well if we're getting catty about it, there is no update buttin on update manager. | 05:36 |
| yuri__ | L3top: Lemme check. | 05:36 |
| jswagner | button | 05:36 |
| yuri__ | L3top: Yes. | 05:36 |
| iceroot_ | z3r0d3rp: upgrade is still different to update from update-manager | 05:36 |
| sacarlson | in Lubuntu 10.04 my screen is too small to view a complete gui panel, what key sequence is used to drag to the bottom of the gui so I can hit the accept botton? | 05:36 |
| iceroot_ | z3r0d3rp: dist-upgrade would do the same job | 05:36 |
| iceroot_ | sacarlson: alt gr + mouse click | 05:36 |
| z3r0d3rp | he broke his distro with a bad ppa | 05:36 |
| L3top | yuri__: you could try wgetting the apt .deb and dpkg -i it. | 05:37 |
| z3r0d3rp | it would have broken with apt also | 05:37 |
| yuri__ | L3top: Can you walk me through that real quick? I've used just about everything but wget over the years. :/ | 05:37 |
| sacarlson | iceroot_: in Lubuntu I tried <alt> drag with left and right mouse and it don't work | 05:37 |
| pankaj | how to install gnome3 on 10.04? | 05:37 |
| jswagner | wget http://path-to-file | 05:37 |
| L3top | what version are you on? | 05:37 |
| iceroot_ | sacarlson: alt gr not alt | 05:37 |
| hydrox24 | yuri__: just run "wget URL" | 05:37 |
| z3r0d3rp | I installed a ppa in 10.04 to get vlc 2... replaced dpkg and totally broke everything | 05:37 |
| ActionParsnip | pankaj: its not compatible | 05:37 |
| yuri__ | L3top: 11.10 | 05:38 |
| hydrox24 | yuri__: it will then download whatever file that url is, html, jpg, deb whatever. | 05:38 |
| sacarlson | iceroot_: what's alt gr? | 05:38 |
| somsip | yuri__: wget "URL" i#it is has a query string | 05:38 |
| z3r0d3rp | pankaj, 11.10 is pretty stable... no real reason to be on 10.04 | 05:38 |
| iceroot_ | sacarlson: is it called different in english? hm, the alt key right to the space bar | 05:38 |
| ActionParsnip | z3r0d3rp: its LTS and solid :) | 05:38 |
| yuri__ | Alright. My problem is what is the url and path to apt.deb | 05:39 |
| z3r0d3rp | if you want LTS and solid use Debian | 05:39 |
| z3r0d3rp | 10.04 is just old | 05:39 |
| jswagner | two years is not old | 05:39 |
| z3r0d3rp | more than two years | 05:39 |
| ActionParsnip | z3r0d3rp: true, some folks like its maturity though | 05:39 |
| iceroot_ | sacarlson: sorry it was the normal alt key and double click in the window, hold the mouse and drag it | 05:40 |
| shpeka | z3r0d3rp : 10.04 is LTS so consider using it , its better than 10.10 | 05:40 |
| pankaj | ActionParsnip, how to install gnome3 on 10.04? | 05:40 |
| L3top | yuri__: looking it up now... | 05:40 |
| sacarlson | iceroot_: I just verified that <alt> drag right mouse on ubuntu does work as you say but it's not working in Lubuntu in the same way | 05:40 |
| iceroot_ | pankaj: dont to that, it will break the system | 05:40 |
| yuri__ | L3top: Thank you. :) | 05:40 |
| jswagner | will the 12.04 isos be the same as the daily-live/20120425 isos? | 05:40 |
| pankaj | iceroot_, why? | 05:41 |
| iceroot_ | sacarlson: running fine here on lubuntu | 05:41 |
| ActionParsnip | pankaj: theres a PPA but it will more tahn likely brake your OS | 05:41 |
| iceroot_ | sacarlson: alt + left double click then drag | 05:41 |
| sacarlson | iceroot_: oh maybe it's a virtualbox thing? | 05:41 |
| rubiks | hi, how are you doing guys? Does anyone know what time they are releasing ubuntu 12 final? | 05:41 |
| z3r0d3rp | I used BT5 R2 with a 3.2.6 kernel for a while... problem is that all the software is outdated and you have to break and troubleshoot everything to get it up to date | 05:41 |
| xangua | !isitout | rubiks | 05:41 |
| ubottu | rubiks: Nope! Ubuntu 12.04 is scheduled for release sometime on April 26th. You can party in #ubuntu-release-party while you're waiting! | 05:41 |
| rubiks | oh thanks! | 05:42 |
| iceroot_ | z3r0d3rp: if you want a rolling release, debian/ubuntu/mint/backtrack is not what you want | 05:42 |
| z3r0d3rp | I don't | 05:42 |
| z3r0d3rp | he said use 10.04 | 05:42 |
| L3top | yuri__: 64 or i386? | 05:42 |
| z3r0d3rp | I did | 05:42 |
| ActionParsnip | z3r0d3rp: are you using backtrack for your daily stuff like emails? | 05:42 |
| z3r0d3rp | when it was new | 05:42 |
| Antunes | What time does the new version? | 05:42 |
| yuri__ | L3top: 64. | 05:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Antunes: later | 05:42 |
| z3r0d3rp | I do pen testing for work so yes I had it installed as a main distro in my notebook | 05:43 |
| Antunes | s | 05:43 |
| pankaj | ActionParsnip, i cant install another os (11.10 ) as i dont have much space left and i have lots things already installed in 10.04. so isnt there any way to install gnome3 on 10.04 | 05:43 |
| z3r0d3rp | but I also had it overhauled | 05:43 |
| yuri__ | L3top: Is there an apt log somewhere to show what 24 packages were all removed? I looked up and it was already uninstalling and there was no cancel button. :( | 05:43 |
| pankaj | ActionParsnip, without breaking the os | 05:43 |
| ActionParsnip | pankaj: there is a PPA, your choice if you use it | 05:43 |
| iceroot_ | yuri__: /var/log/apt/term.log | 05:43 |
| ActionParsnip | pankaj: no, its not compatible, as I said | 05:43 |
| L3top | yuri__: wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/a/apt/apt_0.8.16~exp5ubuntu13.2_amd64.deb | 05:44 |
| yuri__ | L3top: I think I'm screwed. There's no var directory now. | 05:44 |
| L3top | yuri__: dpkg -i apt_0.8.16~exp5ubuntu13.2_amd64.deb | 05:44 |
| ActionParsnip | L3top: that'll need sudo ;) | 05:44 |
| L3top | yeah... you got a lotta chunk... | 05:44 |
| z3r0d3rp | yuri__, you should test before removing things | 05:44 |
| gametstr | how long before 12.04 LTS Final Freeze is out? | 05:45 |
| ActionParsnip | gametstr: soon | 05:45 |
| z3r0d3rp | or do it in terminal so that you can cancel | 05:45 |
| z3r0d3rp | I was going to remove openssl and update manually | 05:45 |
| killfoo_ | !12.04 | 05:45 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) is the 16th release of Ubuntu and is in Beta testing from 2nd March, Discussion and support until final release in #ubuntu+1 | 05:45 |
| L3top | correct. ActionParsnip. that is one of my worst flaws giving advice, as I am so often in a root environment. | 05:45 |
| yuri__ | *sigh* Since now that half my directory tree seems to be missing, any suggestions? | 05:45 |
| z3r0d3rp | but it would have ripped out 75% of the system | 05:45 |
| iceroot_ | only one package update in the last 4 days. sounds we are on a good way :) | 05:46 |
| z3r0d3rp | package management is far from perfect | 05:46 |
| L3top | well... 1204 is coming out soon... that would be my suggestion. Sorry yuri__. | 05:46 |
| friskd | Hey all, why can't i do one one line : ssh www.mysite.com "sudo su -l username" | 05:46 |
| friskd | when ever i try do that it just hanges | 05:46 |
| friskd | but if i ssh in, and then run that command it works fine | 05:46 |
| z3r0d3rp | lol that is not how it works | 05:46 |
| friskd | username of course being a user on the system | 05:46 |
| iceroot_ | friskd: ssh foo@bar 'command' | 05:47 |
| pankaj | ssh user@ip | 05:47 |
| ActionParsnip | friskd: why not just use: ssh username@www.mysite.com | 05:47 |
| shpeka | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgXJbJeRxHo | 05:47 |
| friskd | welli can do ssh www.mystie.com because my local user is the same as the remote server name | 05:47 |
| ActionParsnip | friskd: so why the -l thing? | 05:48 |
| friskd | so yes i could do ssh myuser@www.mysite.com "sudo su -l someotherusername" | 05:48 |
| iceroot_ | friskd: ssh different-user-name@host | 05:48 |
| z3r0d3rp | ^ | 05:48 |
| ActionParsnip | friskd: ssh someotherusername@www.mysite.com | 05:48 |
| friskd | I have a user lets call it company | 05:48 |
| friskd | so any user can ssh in as them selves | 05:48 |
| friskd | then sudo su -l company | 05:48 |
| ActionParsnip | friskd: ssh company@www.mysite.com | 05:48 |
| Steventc | Hello | 05:49 |
| iceroot_ | friskd: ssh company@host | 05:49 |
| friskd | and then they have access to run and edit a bunch of scripts in /home/company | 05:49 |
| ripthejacker | someone help me please | 05:49 |
| ActionParsnip | friskd: yes, as you would be logging in as company | 05:49 |
| z3r0d3rp | why wouldn't you establish a session first? | 05:49 |
| ripthejacker | i am getting this message when i try to connect to internet and it becomes slow | 05:49 |
| ripthejacker | CCP terminated by peer (No compression negotiated^@) | 05:49 |
| ripthejacker | Compression disabled by peer. | 05:49 |
| yuri__ | L3top: How much longer until 1204? | 05:49 |
| ActionParsnip | ripthejacker: what is the output of: lsb_release -sc | 05:50 |
| friskd | i suppose i could do that, and then just all all my engineers ssh keys into the company authorized_keys file | 05:50 |
| friskd | I was trying to keep it that anyone that had sudo could do it | 05:50 |
| L3top | Hours at this point I think? | 05:50 |
| L3top | No telling exactly yuri__ | 05:50 |
| yuri__ | And btw, whatever went wrong in muon, it took all kinds of stuff. I dunno if I could have rebooted. lsb-core, alien, ubuntu-standard, bsd-mailx, this is a scary glitch. :( | 05:50 |
| nishttal2 | hi guys.. i had mounted a FTP folder using the gui at my work machine.. can someone tell me how i can access it from the terminal? | 05:50 |
| iceroot_ | friskd: EVERYONE can use sudo? | 05:51 |
| z3r0d3rp | friskd, that sounds very insecure | 05:51 |
| friskd | no | 05:51 |
| nishttal2 | i mean where are the FTP folders mounted? | 05:51 |
| friskd | so i have 3 engineers | 05:51 |
| friskd | that i have as admins with sudo access | 05:51 |
| friskd | so those three guys can deploy | 05:51 |
| friskd | i have bash script that can be run locally which should connect to the server, sudo su -l company | 05:51 |
| z3r0d3rp | ? | 05:52 |
| friskd | inside of the /home/company folder i have a few scripts taht i want my script to run | 05:52 |
| iceroot_ | friskd: ssh company@host that is the solution | 05:52 |
| ripthejacker | ActionParsnip, it says oneiric | 05:52 |
| ActionParsnip | friskd: then put them in the admin group and they will be able to use sudo | 05:52 |
| iceroot_ | friskd: upload your public key if you dont want to type passwords | 05:52 |
| ActionParsnip | ripthejacker: cool, how do you connect to the web? | 05:52 |
| friskd | iceroot_: yea, that would require i add all my engineers ssh keys into the comapny authorized_keys file | 05:52 |
| ripthejacker | rp-pppoe | 05:52 |
| iceroot_ | friskd: they do it, not you | 05:52 |
| ripthejacker | ActionParsnip, rp-pppoe | 05:53 |
| yuri__ | *SCREAMS* I'm still getting error 127 even after reinstalling apt. :( | 05:53 |
| iceroot_ | friskd: if someone has ssh access to your system he can put his public key on it | 05:53 |
| ActionParsnip | ripthejacker: i've no experience there, sorry. Maybe others can assist | 05:53 |
| nishttal2 | can someone tell where the FTP folders are mounted? | 05:53 |
| friskd | thats true. | 05:53 |
| z3r0d3rp | yuri_ it is faster to do a fresh install than repair a porked ont | 05:53 |
| friskd | Ok let me do it that way. | 05:53 |
| z3r0d3rp | one* | 05:53 |
| friskd | it will work nicely | 05:53 |
| friskd | thanks guys. | 05:53 |

| yuri__ | I'm sorry for being so stupid. It's been years since I've used Linux. Redhat 2.4 back in '98 was the last time I used it. Is there a way to reinstall Linux without losing anything but getting rid of the bugs in the current install? | 05:54 |

| Kalidarn | Ubuntu 12.04 comes out today ;) | 05:54 |
| rinzler | sooo.. having multiple desktops, how would I be able to choose which one is represented during boot? | 05:55 |
| yuri__ | And how do I get rid of mawk and put gawk in it's place without killing my install again? | 05:55 |
| nishttal2 | ActionParsnip, perfect.. thanks! | 05:55 |
| fidel_ | ahoi | 05:55 |
| ActionParsnip | yuri__: I'd reinstall then restore user data from backup | 05:55 |
| iceroot_ | yuri__: if you have an extra home partition its easy to reinstall | 05:55 |
| yuri__ | *sigh* | 05:55 |
| L3top | yuri__: You can move /home to another partition. | 05:55 |
| Kalidarn | yuri__: yes, backup as you would with any other system and reinstall, i usually put in a livecd | 05:55 |
| yuri__ | True. I forgot about that. | 05:55 |
| Kalidarn | and use tar cjvpf home.tar home/ | 05:56 |
| Kalidarn | (p is important to preserve permissions) | 05:56 |
| Kalidarn | though depending on how old the install is you're upgrading it might be best to reconfigure everything | 05:56 |
| yuri__ | I hope gparted still works. I have to make a new partition big enough on my other hd for this. | 05:56 |
| yuri__ | *sigh* I'm even going to have to backup my kernel. Yech. This stinks. | 05:57 |
| iceroot_ | yuri__: why your kernel? | 05:57 |
| nishttal2 | ActionParsnip, this after you told me to install dnsmasq | 05:57 |
| ThePendulum | Is there a way to 'close' Thunderbird in Ubuntu 12.04, yet still get notifications? | 05:57 |
| nishttal2 | i did but after installation when i tried to run it.. it said port already in use! | 05:57 |
| yuri__ | I've been sloooowly customizing the heck out of it over the last week. Just upgraded to 3.3.2 considering 3.4 soon. | 05:57 |
| nishttal2 | ActionParsnip, ^^^ | 05:57 |
| ActionParsnip | nishttal2: dnsmasq can make your web faster | 05:58 |
| iceroot_ | yuri__: ah ok | 05:58 |
| yuri__ | Now I'm waiting for someone to comment on how I can not know how to reinstall linux but know how to compile the kernel from scratch. ;) | 05:58 |
| iceroot_ | yuri__: :) | 05:58 |
| rinzler | ActionParsnip: what is dnsmasq? ubottu doesn't know anything about it... | 05:59 |
| yuri__ | It seems gparted disappeared with this nightmare as well. I may just have to leave the computer on until 1204 comes out and pray the power doesn't go out between now and then. ;) | 05:59 |
| nishttal2 | ActionParsnip.. here is what I am trying to do... my work machine has to use an internal DNS (192.168.42.50) to resolve internal servers (say bart) and i need 8.8.8.8 to access sites like GMAIL.. how can i setup something so its seamless... | 05:59 |
| iceroot_ | yuri__: what is the initial issue? | 05:59 |
| L3top | gparted will work from livecd if it isn't yuri__ | 05:59 |
| nishttal2 | ActionParsnip, if the request for gmail goes to the internal DNS first if would block/reject it | 06:00 |
| yuri__ | iceroot: Initial issue is I tried to replace mawk with gawk and 24 essentials got ripped out from under me and now I have no OS. Just what's in RAM. BASH, original ubuntu kernel, core stuff. Poof. :( | 06:00 |
| ripthejacker | CCP terminated by peer (No compression negotiated^@) | 06:00 |
| ripthejacker | Compression disabled by peer. | 06:00 |
| ripthejacker | i am getting this error message please help | 06:00 |
| nishttal2 | ActionParsnip, i tried to setup both as DNS (space separated) but it only uses the 1st one listed in the list | 06:00 |
| iceroot_ | yuri__: no working apt/dpkg? | 06:01 |
| yuri__ | Meh ****. error 127. Installed a new aptitude and still get 127. | 06:01 |
| uBUxUBu | has 12.04 been released yet? | 06:02 |
| iceroot_ | yuri__: any output of "dpkg --version"? | 06:02 |
| iceroot_ | uBUxUBu: no | 06:02 |
| a_b0y | omg omgomg omg mgoogm | 06:02 |
| ActionParsnip | nishttal2: use commas to seperate | 06:02 |
| a_b0y | nevermind, i thought it was finally released :P | 06:02 |
| ActionParsnip | nishttal2: you also need to tell dnsmasq to listen on 127.0.0.1 | 06:03 |
| yuri__ | My computer is now possessed. I can't use more than one option with tar. Tells me to use a label or something really creepy. :( I was going to tar cjvpf home.tar home/. | 06:03 |
| nishttal2 | ActionParsnip, can i not do it without dnsmasq.. as it didnt run.. it said port already in use | 06:03 |
| iceroot_ | yuri__: any output of "dpkg --version"? | 06:03 |
| Kalidarn | yuri__: might be worth waiting a few hours | 06:04 |
| yuri__ | Yeah. Just a sec. dpkg works. | 06:04 |
| Kalidarn | ubuntu 12.04 LTS is about to be released any hour now | 06:04 |
| iceroot_ | nishttal2: put gmail in /etc/hosts that will overwrite dns-server | 06:04 |
| nishttal2 | iceroot_, how come Xubuntu 12.04 is released.. i thought they followed the main Ubuntu release schedule | 06:04 |
| yuri__ | 1.16.0.3 (amd64) | 06:04 |
| iceroot_ | nishttal2: its not released | 06:04 |
| ActionParsnip | nishttal2: tried a reboot? | 06:04 |
| Kalidarn | what time zone does https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule follow | 06:04 |
| iceroot_ | yuri__: fine, any outpout of "dpkg -l | grep -v ^ii | grep -v ^rc"? | 06:05 |
| Kalidarn | i assume it will be released at 12:00 whatever timezone they work in, i assumed it was UTC | 06:05 |

| nishttal2 | iceroot_, i was using gmail as an example.. but there are many other sites.. is there no seamless way for the system to try both dns servers | 06:05 |
| nishttal2 | ActionParsnip, actually no.. i didnt reboot | 06:05 |
| uBUxUBu | its 705pm in samoa april 26? | 06:05 |
| pengw | hi all | 06:05 |
| nishttal2 | iceroot_, it says Download 12.04 (and doesnt say beta).. this morning it was showing a countdown (1 to go) | 06:05 |
| joemppe | once 12.04 does get out, do you reckon there will be enough server capacity to download the cd image without wanting to gouge my eyes out :D | 06:06 |
| pengw | is that 12.04 out ? | 06:06 |
| yuri__ | It's empty. Nothing to be installed or removed or broken. | 06:06 |
| ActionParsnip | nishttal2: probably find it's ok after that, remember to edit /etc/dnsmasq.conf so that it is listening to loacalhost | 06:06 |
| pengw | i want to install 12.04 | 06:06 |
| yuri__ | I doubt that there will be enough bandwidth to handle all of us. | 06:06 |
| GhostWolf | ubuntu website is beta2! | 06:06 |
| ActionParsnip | pengw: you'll see the motd change when it is | 06:06 |
| pengw | everyone says it is great | 06:06 |
| uBUxUBu | 12.04 is still in final beta | 06:06 |
| iceroot_ | nishttal2: sorry i can just say "man resolv.conf" never used something like you want | 06:07 |
| nishttal2 | iceroot_, ok np.. thanks | 06:07 |
| yuri__ | SOrry. I found this in the last output from dpkg: 4.13a.dfsg.1-8ubuntu1 | 06:07 |
| nishttal2 | iceroot_, any idea as to when 12.04 would be released.. it was supposed to be today rt? | 06:08 |
| nishttal2 | ActionParsnip, ok thanks.. will try in the morning | 06:08 |
| iceroot_ | nishttal2: no dont know, sometime today | 06:08 |
| pengw | i am waiting it for a long time . | 06:08 |
| tsimpson | nishttal2: sometime today, whenever it's considered "ready" by the release manager | 06:08 |
| nishttal2 | iceroot_, ok great | 06:08 |
| nishttal2 | tsimpson, cant wait.. hopefull compiz would work without glitches on 12.04 | 06:09 |
| pengw | today is a really bad for me i have been over changed for repairing my car. | 06:09 |
| nishttal2 | tsimpson, i missed my desktop cube and wobbly windows on 11.10 | 06:09 |

| GhostWolf | i prefer using gnome classic | 06:12 |
| GhostWolf | unity is not suit for me | 06:13 |
| bluescreen | is it easy to switch from unity to classic? | 06:13 |
| GhostWolf | install gnome shell | 06:13 |
| Jordan_U | !notunity | bluescreen | 06:13 |
| ubottu | bluescreen: Ubuntu 11.10 uses GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 06:13 |
| stefan_ | bluescreen: sudo apt-get install gnome-panel | 06:13 |
| sebsebseb | hi | 06:13 |
| user1 | ubuntu 12.04 released or not... | 06:14 |
| pankaj_sharma | why so eager? | 06:15 |
| iceroot_ | what torrent-cli-client is worth using? need something for the 12.04 isos. great would be something ncurse-based | 06:15 |
| ActionParsnip | bluescreen: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/03/gnome-classic-in-ubuntu-12-04-its-like-nothing-ever-changed/ | 06:15 |
| ActionParsnip | user1: no it's not out yet | 06:15 |
| ActionParsnip | user1: when the motd says its out, it's out | 06:15 |
| GhostWolf | deluge | 06:16 |
| yuri__ | Ummm... I'm trying to tar my home directory as suggested earlier and everything is coming out encrypted. Will this be a problem when I go to restore it on a fresh install? | 06:16 |
| z3r0d3rp | iceroot_, try deluge | 06:16 |
| ActionParsnip | iceroot_: rtorrent | 06:16 |
| anupadhikari_ | When is ubuntu 12.04 releasing? | 06:16 |
| z3r0d3rp | deluge > rtorrent | 06:16 |
| anupadhikari_ | coming out of the beta? | 06:17 |
| uBUxUBu | 4-26-12 | 06:17 |
| ActionParsnip | z3r0d3rp: does deluge have an ncurses UI? | 06:17 |
| anupadhikari_ | uBUxUBu, time? | 06:17 |
| iceroot_ | z3r0d3rp: thanks, deluge would pull to much for me | 06:17 |
| === matias is now known as Guest64695 | ||
| iceroot_ | ActionParsnip: thx | 06:17 |
| Valtam | need a bot that has set triggers to people asking for release time | 06:17 |
| uBUxUBu | not sure | 06:17 |
| iceroot_ | z3r0d3rp: some x11 libs and so on... | 06:17 |
| dr_willis | i remember why i avoid this channel on release day now.... ;) | 06:17 |
| z3r0d3rp | lol are you running on a 386? | 06:18 |
| colonelqubit | Valtam: They could put a note about it on ubuntu.com, too... | 06:18 |
| iceroot_ | dr_willis: is it out now? :) | 06:18 |
| ActionParsnip | z3r0d3rp: hence rtorrent, not deluge. So in this situation due to requirements rtorrent > deluge | 06:18 |
| z3r0d3rp | I suppose | 06:18 |
| dr_willis | iceroot_: its been delayed till the 32nd. | 06:18 |
| anupadhikari_ | colonelqubit, Valtam ya no data on ubuntu.com, they could have a countdown or something | 06:18 |
| iceroot_ | z3r0d3rp: headless debian server and there i dont want 100 additional packsges | 06:18 |
| iceroot_ | dr_willis: :) | 06:19 |
| z3r0d3rp | iceroot_, it has a cli client | 06:19 |
| Valtam | colonelqubit]$ they don't do that so they can avoid hammering at one point in time | 06:19 |
| ActionParsnip | iceroot_: or use transmission cli, enable the web UI and control it from another PC using transgui | 06:19 |
| jalal | hi guys i needed helpp | 06:19 |
| colonelqubit | Valtam: That makes absolutely no sense | 06:19 |
| iceroot_ | ActionParsnip: so its running as a daemon? | 06:19 |
| colonelqubit | Valtam: Either way, people are going to hammer on it | 06:19 |
| tsimpson | Valtam, anupadhikari_: a countdown would require a fixed time when release is happening, that fixed time doesn't exist so there can be no count down | 06:19 |
| Valtam | it wuld be a good idea for the torrent release | 06:19 |
| ActionParsnip | iceroot_: yeah there is transmission-cli or similar | 06:19 |
| z3r0d3rp | deluge is about ten times fasten than rtorrent or transmission also supports plugins | 06:19 |
| jalal | on my browser or any programe | 06:19 |
| jalal | minimize ,maximize and close button not showing | 06:20 |
| iceroot_ | z3r0d3rp: i only need it for -23 days to provide the ubuntu torrents | 06:20 |
| colonelqubit | One easy way to avoid hammering the release servers is for them to just push it out over bittorrent 30 minutes before any other protocol | 06:20 |
| anupadhikari_ | tsimpson, so there is no fix time, why? | 06:20 |
| z3r0d3rp | if you are seeding then use utorrent server derp | 06:20 |
| jalal | plzz helppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp | 06:20 |
| dr_willis | anupadhikari_: because they don't know. | 06:20 |
| tsimpson | anupadhikari_: because things happen on the day that can't be predicted, the release team have a general idea, but nothing is in stone | 06:21 |
| z3r0d3rp | I haven't used utorrent server but that is what it was designed for/to do | 06:21 |
| dr_willis | jalal: the title bar showing at all? | 06:21 |
| jalal | no | 06:21 |
| z3r0d3rp | likewise the utorrent protocol is faster and more efficient on a network | 06:21 |
| anupadhikari_ | dr_willis, I am seriously, really confused,no joking, what are you saying, they don't know? | 06:21 |
| jalal | yes title showing | 06:21 |
| dr_willis | jalal: compiz crashed sounds like | 06:21 |
| iceroot_ | z3r0d3rp: good info, i will have a look at it later, now i am running rtorrent in screen, it has ncurses, so its ok for my needs | 06:22 |
| Optichip | !release | 06:22 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases | 06:22 |
| jalal | i install ubuntu tweak | 06:22 |
| jalal | so what is solution for that? | 06:22 |
| z3r0d3rp | compiz --replace | 06:22 |
| jalal | my cursor coming in x symbol | 06:22 |
| dr_willis | anupadhikari_: they dont know when it will get updated to all the servers.. so they dont know an exact time when they will all be ready to 'go' | 06:22 |
| z3r0d3rp | bad drivers could be | 06:22 |
| anupadhikari_ | dr_willis, oh, thanks for the insight | 06:23 |
| jalal | any solution? | 06:23 |
| z3r0d3rp | nvidia card? | 06:23 |
| dr_willis | anupadhikari_: if its that critical for you.. install the dailyy build then update/upgrade... | 06:23 |
| jalal | yes | 06:23 |
| GhostWolf | ubuntu tweak 0.7.0 released | 06:23 |
| z3r0d3rp | if so manually install proprietary drivers | 06:23 |
| jalal | i have nvdia | 06:23 |
| z3r0d3rp | do lspci -vv and find out what your card is | 06:23 |
| z3r0d3rp | download the driver | 06:24 |
| z3r0d3rp | drop to command line | 06:24 |
| jalal | ok wait | 06:24 |
| dr_willis | jalal: you could try making a new user and seeing if the issue exists for them also | 06:24 |
| z3r0d3rp | stop gdm/lightdm | 06:24 |
| z3r0d3rp | then run the script | 06:24 |
| fuzik | Hello People ! | 06:24 |

| jalal | now i neeed too restart | 06:25 |
| z3r0d3rp | try ctrl f1 then type compiz --replace then ctrl f7 | 06:25 |
| jalal | once i open any application i cant close it | 06:25 |
| Hoyt | because you don't have a WM | 06:25 |
| dr_willis | jalal: alt-ctrl-f1 login , use sudo service lightdm restart | 06:25 |
| fuzik | Read FAQ, read installation FAQ, but not find that i need. I want install ubuntu-server-i386.iso from USB flash can you help me to find documentation how to do it ? | 06:25 |
| jalal | shortcut no working | 06:25 |
| fuzik | my currect system Debian 5.0 | 06:25 |
| z3r0d3rp | jalal, try alt f2 then type compiz --replace | 06:25 |

| Optichip | yuri__: what more do you need? | 06:28 |
| supreeth | Can anyone give me/tell me where to find these values for Ubuntu 10.04 kernel 2.6.32-33-generic? | 06:28 |
| z3r0d3rp | yuri you might consider making a data partition | 06:28 |
| Hoyt | supreeth: uname -r ? | 06:28 |
| yuri__ | Well, I know what the convenience partitions are, by name, but not by size. | 06:28 |

| z3r0d3rp | 20 gigs is not enough for windows | 06:28 |
| z3r0d3rp | not even close | 06:29 |
| supreeth | I'm on a different system now. Ubuntu 11.04 | 06:29 |
| Hoyt | supreeth: what you looking for ? | 06:29 |
| DarwinSurvivor | pengw: i'd go with more than 1/2GB of swap | 06:29 |
| z3r0d3rp | depeds on ram | 06:29 |
| Hoyt | I don't even use a swap , I have 4g memory | 06:29 |
| supreeth | I'm interested in the 'comm field, which contains the name of the process' for Ubuntu 10.04 kernel 2.6.32-33-generic | 06:29 |
| holmescn | Nick to be here. I have a removable harddisk. All partations are NTFS. My problem is one of the partitions won't automount. I have googled, but have no idea. | 06:29 |
| z3r0d3rp | if you have 2.5 gigs and up you don't need a swap part except for laptop hibernation / video editing | 06:29 |
| yuri__ | Argh. I think it's time for me to format my old windows hard drive. 40gb just isn't enough. I'm at 20gb for my home directory already. | 06:29 |
| Optichip | yuri__: with a 40g drive I'm guessing SSD /swap / should be all you need, hopefully you have a second drive that you can use for your /home partition after install. | 06:29 |
| dr_willis | holmescn: mount by hand. see if any errors show up | 06:30 |
| Raydiation | i was wondering if there are any debs for intellij idea | 06:30 |
| supreeth | Hoyt: I'm interested in the 'comm field, which contains the name of the process' for Ubuntu 10.04 kernel 2.6.32-33-generic | 06:30 |
| yuri__ | *sigh* What would be the recommendations for a 500gb hard drive? I wasn't ready to drop windows when I first installed linux. | 06:30 |
| holmescn | dr_willis: yes, it works, but not convinient. | 06:30 |
| fuzik | My question can be forgeted .. thanks. | 06:30 |
| Hoyt | supreeth: I don't get it , what's the *'comm* field ? | 06:30 |
| DarwinSurvivor | pengw: because with over 4GB of ram, the only real use for swap is hibernation, in which case you need at least as much swap as ram | 06:30 |
| Raydiation | the community edition (open source, apl) is not in the official repos | 06:30 |
| z3r0d3rp | yuri__, I have my kde system on my old box on a 20 gig drive but use part of my 80 gig Windows drive to store movies and stuff | 06:31 |
| z3r0d3rp | to share between OS's | 06:31 |
| supreeth | It's basically for a process tracker on the Simics simulator. | 06:31 |
| Hoyt | supreeth: top ? | 06:31 |
| supreeth | Hoyt: It's basically for a process tracker on the Simics simulator. | 06:31 |
| yuri__ | And for those who are confused by myhatred of Windows at the moment, long story short: MS gave me a bunk keycode and it gave me 30 days to buy a new one, no money and MS won't replace the keycode. | 06:31 |
| z3r0d3rp | same with my laptop... I have my torrent client configed to write to my windows part | 06:31 |
| dr_willis | holmescn: i just make fstab entries for mine | 06:31 |
| Optichip | yuri__: you could use the 500g as what it is now, without formatting, you could put your /home partition onto it fstab just needs to know where to mount and what type of filesystem. | 06:31 |
| yuri__ | NTFS. | 06:32 |
| yuri__ | Win7. | 06:32 |
| z3r0d3rp | keep it | 06:32 |
| z3r0d3rp | just mount the drive in fstab | 06:32 |
| z3r0d3rp | and use it for storage | 06:32 |
| z3r0d3rp | keep windows on it | 06:32 |
| esak | why ubuntu 12.04 is not ready for download ? | 06:32 |
| Hoyt | just try the daily build , it's almost the same | 06:32 |
| yuri__ | Win7 no more work. Don't need Windows for nothing now. | 06:33 |

| ubottu | esak: Nope! Ubuntu 12.04 is scheduled for release sometime on April 26th. You can party in #ubuntu-release-party while you're waiting! | 06:33 |
| Optichip | yuri__: then use it as your /home | 06:33 |
| z3r0d3rp | then just reinstall and use the big drive | 06:33 |
| Optichip | yuri__: format it ext4 and add it to your fstab | 06:33 |
| z3r0d3rp | or use parted and copy the partition | 06:33 |
| supreeth | Hoyt: I'm basically tring to fill the fields from: http://www.cs.sfu.ca/~fedorova/Tech/simics-guides-3.0.26/simics-reference-manual-public-all/topic148.html for 2.6.32-33-generic | 06:34 |
| yuri__ | Yeah. I got wine for the /FEW/ win programs I'm still using. I'll just copy my users directory to another partition and then format win. | 06:34 |
| z3r0d3rp | you can use gparted to copy your system to the larger drive | 06:34 |
| jalal | i am back,system need to restart | 06:34 |
| z3r0d3rp | then there is one command to make your system see all the new space | 06:34 |
| jalal | ok i issue command compiz--replace | 06:34 |
| z3r0d3rp | I can't remember what it is off the top of my head | 06:34 |
| jalal | my all system come back to normal | 06:35 |
| jalal | now what i do so i future it will not be like that? | 06:35 |
| z3r0d3rp | jalal install compiz fusion icon | 06:35 |
| jalal | command? | 06:35 |
| Optichip | setkeh! | 06:35 |
| z3r0d3rp | that way you can use it to reset compiz from the gui | 06:35 |
| yuri__ | Woops. I guess I'll have to copy just my documents from win. ;) full users folder for me was over 100 GB. Yikes. Stupid Windows. | 06:35 |
| setkeh | Optichip: ******* | 06:35 |
| z3r0d3rp | sudo apt-get install fusion-icon | 06:35 |

| yuri__ | *runs and hides* 328.1 GB for my old win docs. ;) | 06:35 |
| setkeh | When will Ubunut be ready for DL | 06:35 |
| dr_willis | yuri__: a lot of that may be temp files | 06:36 |

| Optichip | Is Arch better then Ubuntu? | 06:36 |
| pozzz | bluefish: Save all button on toolbar. Possible? | 06:36 |
| jalal | please give me perfect solution | 06:36 |
| dr_willis | Optichip: you decide that for yourself | 06:36 |
| Hoyt | Optichip: arch has poor scripts than gentoo , that's all I know | 06:36 |
| tsimpson | Optichip: asking a question like that in #ubuntu isn't really a good idea | 06:36 |
| setkeh | Optichip: hahahaha | 06:36 |
| z3r0d3rp | lol yuri... even after removing any movies and media... my windows 7 system with applications and games is 200 gigs | 06:36 |

| z3r0d3rp | you can restart it via alt f2 and compiz --replace | 06:37 |
| jalal | yah i gave compiz --replace then evrything back to normal | 06:37 |
| z3r0d3rp | you should install guake anyway | 06:37 |

| jalal | i am istall compiz icon | 06:45 |
| ServerCrash | hi how can i remove delete rights from user (globally), he should not be able to delete any file, even files created by himself | 06:45 |
| jalal | i instll ubuntu tweak last night so i guess because of that ..problem arrieved | 06:45 |
| dr_willis | ServerCrash: what sort of work is the user supposed to be able to do then? | 06:45 |
| ActionParsnip | jalal: what proble | 06:46 |
| dr_willis | jalal: most likely some tweak you did.. not the tool itself.. | 06:46 |
| esak | jalal what is ubuntu alternate ? | 06:46 |
| ServerCrash | dr_willis, just create files, copy files, move files | 06:46 |
| stripe | dr willis never thought of that, running the file manager from the terminal , will try it. thanks | 06:46 |
| jalal | problem not people brother | 06:46 |
| z3r0d3rp | jalal, 10.04? | 06:46 |

| jalal | yes | 06:46 |
| z3r0d3rp | then update | 06:46 |
| jalal | 10.04 | 06:46 |
| ServerCrash | dr_willis, fine no problem he can alteast copy :) | 06:47 |
| z3r0d3rp | 10.04 can crash compiz for any number of reasons | 06:47 |

| z3r0d3rp | in Linux there is no such thing as a perfect solution | 06:48 |
| dr_willis | jalal: compiz can crash.... thats just a fact of life., the fusion-icon tool or other tools can auto-restart it if it crashes | 06:48 |
| jalal | it did nothing ..but i guess so problem came form that | 06:48 |
| jalal | before that syste working fine | 06:48 |

| cdm10 | DarwinSurvivor: For me, it seems to have to do with the phase of the moon -- I'll try booting Ubuntu on a whim and it'll connect, but won't ever again. And if I want to use the WPA2-Enterprise network, which is necessary for most non-vanilla network services, well... I'm pretty much out of luck.

| ActionParsnip | cdm10: try disabling n speed, may give a stable connection | 07:03 |
| DarwinSurvivor | cdm10: you can always try wicd, i've had luck with that in the past for "non-standard" networks | 07:04 |
| DarwinSurvivor | cdm10: just make sure you have a wired connection first, installing wicd on ubuntu removes network-manager :( | 07:04 |
| cdm10 | ActionParsnip: I'll try that, though I sure as heck won't be happy about connecting to my university's obscenely fast network with slow wireless :-/ | 07:04 |
| ActionParsnip | cdm10: at 54mbps you'll be fine | 07:04 |
| cdm10 | DarwinSurvivor: As a result of Research, my school has found out that something like 3% of students actually used the wired. They disconnected all our ports. | 07:04 |

| cdm10 | DarwinSurvivor: As it happens, one of my friends had to do that in order to use Lion Internet Recovery on his Mac, and they were helpful (He basically said techie stuff and convinced them he was techie-qualified.) I'm even better off, I work for a division of our IT, just not the part concerned with the network. | 07:06 |

| yuri__ | Woops. How do I get the motd on here? | 07:15 |
| cdm10 | yuri__: With 12.04, coming out today, 64-bit should have far fewer issues running older 32-bit software. As far as I'm aware, there's no reason to use 32-bit any more. | 07:15 |
| z3r0d3rp | but since your web research skills are border line retarded | 07:15 |

| ActionParsnip | z3r0d3rp: you can run Lubuntu well on a P2 | 07:36 |
| hnsz | P-CHAN not anymore he came back on that | 07:36 |
| ukbeast | It just looks over complicated | 07:36 |
| z3r0d3rp | Lubuntu is as resource intensive as unity | 07:37 |
| ActionParsnip | P-CHAN: yeah, well the Linux standard base species RPM, not DEB.... | 07:37 |
| P-CHAN | ActionParsnip: ??????? | 07:37 |
| ukbeast | Debian, I <3 | 07:37 |
| z3r0d3rp | RPM is standard because of Red Hat? | 07:38 |

| ActionParsnip | z3r0d3rp: its really not. I have P2 systems and Unit | 07:38 |
| z3r0d3rp | likely more installs using .deb | 07:38 |

| yuri__ | RH has been around since 1990. It went proprietary-ish back in 99, I believe. | 07:38 |
| ukbeast | Alien works a treat for those non .Deb files | 07:39 |
| yuri__ | I remember my first experience with Debian. Scared me. Lost my RH disc and couldn't download RH no more. Even tried FreeBSD, that lasted all fo one day. Couldn't even get my mouse to work. ;) | 07:39 |
| z3r0d3rp | I dislike red hat based distros | 07:39 |

| yuri__ | *hides at the mention of the W word* How dare you cuss in public like that, ukbeast. ;) | 07:40 |

| yuri__ | Old redhat was awesome. Before it went proprietary and Fedora I agree is a scary experience. | 07:40 |
| saju | getting error mknod: missing operand after `10' | 07:41 |

| ikonia | saju: what arey ou doing ? | 07:42 |
| * ActionParsnip misses Mandrake 7. Great days | 07:42 | |
| z3r0d3rp | the real problem is that once you get spoiled by the way Ubuntu handles permission and by apt - going back makes you feel like someone just made your life difficult for no reason | 07:42 |
| z3r0d3rp | it makes sense in a corporate environment I suppose | 07:42 |
| l3d | so lost on how to get a downloaded theme to worl? | 07:42 |
| z3r0d3rp | but no being able to change printers without root is dumb | 07:42 |
| saju | i want to create /dev/kvm | 07:42 |
| yuri__ | I had a Fedora server for a year. Hated everyday. It kept breaking constantly. | 07:42 |

| stripe | UUID=5bcedfb4-6c9c-4da6-9bf0-ce2a3a7e4a37 /media/backup ext4 defaults 0 1 does this look about right to add to fstab so that I can make another hard drive writable | 07:42 |
| SunTsu | saju: you don't need to mknod anymore, /dev is taken care by udev now | 07:43 |
| z3r0d3rp | I always run Debian for servers, but I always have | 07:43 |
| ActionParsnip | saju: i'd ask in #bash too. | 07:43 |
| z3r0d3rp | old habits I suppose | 07:43 |
| saju | i got that command from http://forum.soft32.com/linux/open-dev-kvm-file-directory-ftopict337826.html | 07:43 |

| ikonia | guys, can we stop with the tedious distro memories please. | 07:43 |

| scientes | how do i use the linux2.6 personliaty? | 07:45 |
| scientes | i only see linux32 linux64 | 07:45 |
| skramer_ | how do I set up forked-daapd properly? I can see the tracks, but when I try to play there´s no sound in Banshee nor in Rhythmbox... | 07:45 |
| ikonia | saju: is the kvm module loaded ? | 07:46 |
| ukbeast | Banshee? Clementine is the ticket mate ;) | 07:46 |
| z3r0d3rp | Guest82801, I'm guessing that your usb ports are being powered down | 07:46 |
| z3r0d3rp | probably ACPI issue | 07:46 |
| z3r0d3rp | check in bios | 07:46 |
| P-CHAN | CANONICAL must support MATE with GTK3 | 07:46 |
| skramer_ | ukbeast: you mean I install Clementine & then I should be able to listen to my music?? | 07:46 |
| ikonia | P-CHAN: STOP, now | 07:46 |
| saju | ya | 07:46 |
| Guest82801 | z3r0d3rp, in bios? shouldn't this be in the OS? | 07:47 |
| saju | lsmod | grep kvm | 07:47 |
| saju | kvm 305988 0 | 07:47 |
| P-CHAN | ikonia: why now? | 07:47 |
| ukbeast | Also is ubuntu-restricted installed? | 07:47 |
| ukbeast | it gives you all the codecs you need | 07:47 |
| ikonia | P-CHAN: do you need support yes/no ? | 07:47 |
| schultza | when will 12.4 be release? | 07:48 |
| ikonia | saju: right, so udev should create that kvm node, you shouldn't have to manually create that | 07:48 |
| skramer_ | yes, it is. In fact, it had mt-daapd working already. But after switching to forked-daapd I ran into problems... | 07:48 |
| P-CHAN | ikonia: yes man... My nokia 6111 hang on ubuntu | 07:48 |
| ikonia | saju: the most common cause for it not getting created is your CPU does't properly support virtualisation | 07:48 |
| ikonia | P-CHAN: what do you mean your phone hangs on ubuntu ? | 07:48 |
| ukbeast | Has anyone been region restricted when watching a dvd? Not happen to me I'm curios does it happen on ubuntu | 07:48 |
| z3r0d3rp | Guest0498, the settings for you your computer handles ACPI are in hardware... often times there are options such as powering down peripherals to save power | 07:49 |
| yuri__ | You know, I never thought to play my doctor who dvd under linux. I thought the region stuff was firmware based in the dvd-drive itself. | 07:49 |
| P-CHAN | ikonia: WHen I use Nokia as modem with chrome, chromium or srware iron and closes ubuntu stops or when the SCREEN turn off | 07:50 |
| P-CHAN | [it only happen in uncle ubuntu | 07:50 |
| morpheeze | does anybody have a rough idea when the final images will be available for download? | 07:50 |
| ukbeast | I had one scrambled trailer on my anime DVD, *tries to remember name | 07:50 |
| z3r0d3rp | sometimes laptops and netbooks that are shipped with Windows OEM have drivers to help out with these type of things... in linux it might not send the proper signal to wake them | 07:50 |
| kaushal | Hi | 07:50 |
| kaushal | what is the exact time 12.04 will be released to public ? | 07:51 |
| z3r0d3rp | so you might be able to turn off ACPI control of your peripheral in BIOS | 07:51 |
| z3r0d3rp | that would probably fix it | 07:51 |
| ikonia | P-CHAN: I'm sorry, I don't understand what you are saying, chrome is a web browser, it has no relevence to a modem | 07:51 |
| ikonia | ukbeast: donesn't matter about the name | 07:51 |
| P-CHAN | ikonia: no are you sure? | 07:51 |
| ikonia | kaushal: no-one knows, | 07:51 |
| ikonia | P-CHAN: positive | 07:51 |
| P-CHAN | ikonia: Why it occurs only with my cell phone? | 07:52 |
| schultza | are there any issues upgrading distros... not a complete reinstall? | 07:52 |
| ikonia | P-CHAN: I don't know what you're actually asking | 07:52 |
| z3r0d3rp | iconia he is saying that he tethers to his phone and it crashes | 07:52 |

| fidel_ | schultza: you can do both - so at the end its your decision | 07:53 |
| yuri__ | Ah. I meant to ask that a little while ago. Can we go from final beta to lts or does it have to be lts to lts? | 07:53 |
| ukbeast | I installed it off playdeb and crashes after loading before race | 07:53 |
| schultza | which would be better? safer? (trying not to reinstall and loose data) | 07:54 |
| jackbrownhf | anyone available ? how can i set a plugin in xchat permanently ? | 07:54 |
| ikonia | ukbeast: contact playdeb then | 07:54 |
| ikonia | ukbeast: it's their package | 07:54 |
| ukbeast | I'm upgrading in update manager | 07:54 |
| z3r0d3rp | ukbeast google is your friend... it's likely that someone else is probably having the same issue | 07:55 |
| ikonia | ukbeast: just contact playdeb, they build those packages, they support them, the same as this channel supports ubuntu's packages | 07:55 |
| ukbeast | OK thanks | 07:56 |
| schultza | i think ubuntu should have rolling release codebase imho | 07:56 |
| ikonia | schultza: well it's not so thanks for that comment | 07:56 |
| z3r0d3rp | problem with rolling releases is that they force people to update to potentially less stable packages | 07:57 |
| z3r0d3rp | some people hate change | 07:57 |
| z3r0d3rp | etc | 07:57 |
| ikonia | well, it's not a rolling release so no need for discussion | 07:57 |
| schultza | ouch... sorry for putting fuel in the fire | 07:57 |
| ukbeast | Don't go nuts for this comment, Which is a good recommended AV? | 07:59 |
| z3r0d3rp | for Windows? | 07:59 |
| z3r0d3rp | don't need one for Ubuntu | 07:59 |
| ukbeast | They are possibilities, it's not 100% protected | 08:00 |
| Queops | If you are not careful | 08:00 |
| Queops | If you still insist there is ClamAV, but might be more useful to scan your windows partitions than anything lol. | 08:00 |
| Dragos29 | hy | 08:00 |
| z3r0d3rp | I work in netsec... and I can tell you with certainty that AV does not benefit linux | 08:01 |
| yuri__ | Are there any DVD design programs for Linux similar to Sony DVD Architect? I tried DVD Styler, but it keeps freezing half way through the render process. | 08:01 |

| Multiply | Hi guys. I recently tried upgrading my ubuntu server, and it went fine with the first upgrade. And the next one didn't reboot, so I forced the machine off, and back on. Now I'm stuck at grub. How do I get into the system now? | 08:05 |
| Roj | i need dvd version it is cd version :-) | 08:05 |
| iceroot_ | Multiply: grub is offering you different kernel-version to boot? | 08:05 |
| === mark_687 is now known as Mark_Snel | ||
| yuri__ | That's my question though, is this like win where you can not go from beta to final or can I do that? Beta to final. Upgrading. | 08:06 |
| iceroot_ | Roj: look at the links there is the dvd also | 08:06 |
| Multiply | iceroot_: It's more like cmdline only | 08:06 |
| iceroot_ | Roj: imo on "alternate download locations" | 08:06 |
| vexaxv | yuri__, official will be out today just wait lol | 08:06 |
| Amdpc | @Roj : May I pm you ? | 08:06 |
| iceroot_ | Multiply: some text about "busybox"? | 08:06 |
| Ben64 | yuri__: yes you can update from beta to final | 08:06 |
| z3r0d3rp | he's dropped into grub rescue | 08:06 |
| iceroot_ | !final | yuri__ | 08:06 |
| ubottu | yuri__: 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. | 08:06 |
| Multiply | iceroot_: All it says is Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. And then GRUB version 1.98-1ubuntu13 | 08:07 |
| Starminn | How can I backup my GPG/SSH data so I can use it still once I make a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04? | 08:07 |
| z3r0d3rp | yeah it can't find your kernel | 08:07 |
| yuri__ | I'm only anxious because my system is running in RAM only right now. I went to switch for MAWK to GAWK and lost a lot of core files for ubuntu. :( | 08:07 |
| yuri__ | I know, it makes no sense to me either. | 08:07 |
| iceroot_ | yuri__: i asked you about some output still no response so we can not solve your issue | 08:08 |
| === shadow is now known as Guest10398 | ||
| z3r0d3rp | lol yuri__ at least you have a reason for a full new install | 08:08 |
| z3r0d3rp | I am going to stick with 11.10 until the initial bugs are worked out | 08:08 |
| yuri__ | I gave output. Must have gotten lost in all the chatter. | 08:08 |
| yuri__ | Lemme grab it again real quick. | 08:08 |

| theotix | What news about the LTS version ? | 08:09 |
| Multiply | iceroot_: Where it seems (lb1-root) is having most of my files. | 08:09 |
| iceroot_ | yuri__: that is the only output? | 08:10 |
| yuri__ | Yeah. | 08:10 |
| yuri__ | Besides the key above that eplaining about the captial text and errors. | 08:10 |
| yuri__ | *explaining. | 08:10 |
| KeithWeisshar | when will ubuntu 12.04 be released | 08:11 |
| yuri__ | lol | 08:11 |
| z3r0d3rp | multiply can you boot into a live dist to see what's actually where? | 08:11 |
| z3r0d3rp | because the fastest way might be to chroot into your box and reinstall grub | 08:12 |
| Starminn | How can I backup my GPG/SSH data so I can use it still once I make a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04? | 08:12 |
| Multiply | z3r0d3rp: It's a virtual machine, and I can't seem to get it to boot from any of my iso files. | 08:12 |
| z3r0d3rp | if that doesn't work you might need to fix other things via chroot | 08:12 |
| _r00t_ | Happy Ubuntu Day | 08:12 |
| iceroot_ | yuri__: "sudo dpkg --configure -a" | 08:12 |
| z3r0d3rp | multiply if it's vmware you can boot a live dist and mount the image as a drive | 08:13 |
| dArKd3ViL | is it out yet? | 08:13 |
| KeithWeisshar | will 12.04 be released later today? | 08:13 |
| z3r0d3rp | I'm not sure if you can do that in virtualbox | 08:13 |
| ikonia | dArKd3ViL: no, or it would be on the web page, think it through | 08:13 |
| Multiply | z3r0d3rp: It is. Can I do that from the webinterface? | 08:13 |
| yuri__ | exit status 127. | 08:13 |
| z3r0d3rp | not sure | 08:13 |
| z3r0d3rp | you might have to do it in vmware workstation | 08:14 |
| pawdro | @OPS - i suggest placing some note about release moment of Pangolin :) users' flood is coming ;] | 08:14 |
| dArKd3ViL | i am just playing with irc bots here, if there are any :P | 08:14 |
| z3r0d3rp | and use a network connection to mount the drive | 08:14 |
| ikonia | dArKd3ViL: well don't | 08:14 |
| xuserx | hi | 08:14 |
| Multiply | z3r0d3rp: It's a vSphere instance I assume | 08:14 |
| Multiply | Is there no way, I can solve it from the bash-line to just get in? | 08:15 |
| z3r0d3rp | hmm I haven't actually had to do what you are doing | 08:15 |
| Multiply | And then run the grub installer | 08:15 |
| z3r0d3rp | you don't have a bash prompt | 08:15 |
| Multiply | I do. | 08:15 |
| z3r0d3rp | that is a grub rescue prompt | 08:15 |
| z3r0d3rp | you have bash? | 08:15 |
| Multiply | Well, grub's simple one | 08:15 |
| yuri__ | My bash disappeared along with the rest of my core files. | 08:15 |
| z3r0d3rp | well the problem is that it's not finding your kernel image | 08:15 |
| z3r0d3rp | so either it's not there | 08:15 |
| z3r0d3rp | which is probably the problem | 08:15 |
| Multiply | I think I'm setting the root wrong. | 08:15 |
| z3r0d3rp | or the cfg is wrong | 08:15 |
| Bagels | How can I attach a script to my Unity bar? | 08:16 |
| xuserx | when will be ubuntu 12.04 relased? | 08:16 |
| yuri__ | All my kernel stuff is still in my boot directory. | 08:16 |
| ikonia | xuserx: at some point during the day | 08:16 |
| ikonia | yuri__: your kernel should be in /boot | 08:16 |
| Multiply | z3r0d3rp: Can I change the config from here? | 08:16 |
| xuserx | today? | 08:16 |
| xuserx | :-D | 08:16 |
| yuri__ | ikonia: All of it is. the initrd, the config and the vmlinuz. | 08:16 |
| ikonia | yuri__: correct, that's where it should be | 08:17 |
| z3r0d3rp | I dunno Multiply unless you can figure out a way to mount the drive in vmware and access it from another vm I don't know how to help | 08:17 |
| z3r0d3rp | perhaps someone else is better with a rescue prompt | 08:17 |
| Dragos29 | who is from romania?? | 08:17 |
| xuserx | im from romania | 08:18 |
| Bagels | I have a script I can run by double-clicking, but how can I make it so I can just run it from my Unity bar? | 08:18 |
| Multiply | z3r0d3rp: It's okay. :) Well, I get it to sorta boot. It says it tries to mount /dev/ to /root/dev but fails. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing tho | 08:18 |
| z3r0d3rp | I know that it's possible in vmware workstation but I am not sure of the specifics | 08:18 |
| Dragos29 | poti sa ma ajuti? | 08:18 |
| Multiply | It should be possible, but it didn't seem to work earlier. | 08:18 |
| Multiply | Anyone else familiar with grubs resque prompt? | 08:19 |
| z3r0d3rp | what version did you update? | 08:19 |
| Multiply | From 10.4 I assume, and up. | 08:20 |
| Multiply | First update went fine, tho. | 08:20 |

| z3r0d3rp | first create a new vm locally, then mount the network image | 08:22 |

| SunTsu | ikonia: then we're not off worse if it's mentioned there ;) | 08:30 |
| nicon` | paulus68: as I use Ubuntu over the years I didn't need support, so I don't care, sorry :-) | 08:31 |

| n1gz | backtrack is where its at | 08:31 |
| schultza | no we dont... we just want to talk to all these fine ppl here and ask all kinds of questions.... im kidding/playing | 08:31 |
| vak123 | ikonia: this is true, but this channel should know when it "dies" better :) | 08:32 |
| ikonia | n1gz: that's offtopic here, so please keep to Ubuntu support | 08:32 |
| SunTsu | nicon`: you were told that you're being rude. There are two ways to react to that: apologize or keep on being rude. You chose to do the latter and now complain about the consequences in a different channel you were told to discuss it. Well... | 08:32 |
| ikonia | SunTsu: let it go please, it's pointless. | 08:32 |
| nicon` | :-) | 08:32 |
| paulus68 | nicon`: if you don't need support why are you here then ? | 08:32 |
| nicon` | paulus68: to ask about release? :-) | 08:32 |
| nicon` | Because it's kinda important for me can I except it in one hour, or ten hours? :-) | 08:33 |

It works fine from Kate to Chrome or NetBeans to rekonq. But not from NetBeans to Chrome. Anybody got any ideas what is the matter? | 09:17 |
| somsip | Womkes: Where are you copying it to? Address bar? Document in Google Docs? | 09:19 |
| Womkes | somsip, into a from, copying to address bar works fine | 09:19 |
| Womkes | form | 09:19 |
| alvesjnr | for an unknow reason, after a reboot my user loses the permission to write on his own home directory (???). It was quite easy to fixe, but any of you have some Idea about why did it happen? | 09:19 |
| ammar__ | hello. | 09:19 |
| ammar__ | my question is that, that I am currently on ubuntu 11.10 (current main OS) and I want to update to 12.04. I have installed virtual box for 11.10. So will my virtual box still work if I upgrade my OS to 12.04? | 09:20 |
| somsip | Womkes: ah - not had, but unable to copy from Google Docs as easy as I would like. Probably not related to your issue | 09:20 |
| pengw | ammar good question , it should work i think | 09:20 |
| Womkes | I think it happened after one of the Chrome updates about 2 weeks ago | 09:20 |
| Womkes | suddenly cannot copy&paste from NetBeans to Chrome anymore | 09:21 |
| Womkes | really strange | 09:21 |
| ammar__ | so can I update it manually? | 09:21 |
| ammar__ | if it doesn't work? | 09:21 |
| Womkes | ammar__, it will work fine | 09:21 |
| a_b0y | why don't they just release Ubuntu tomorrow since it is not even ready yet today | 09:21 |
| antnash_ | Alrght guys. I'm trying to set a scheduled reboot for 6am. I've done sudo crontab -e, then added 0 6 * * * reboot. It's not working, what am I doing wrong? | 09:21 |
| pengw | there is no guarantee | 09:21 |
| ammar__ | great :) | 09:21 |
| ammar__ | also one more question | 09:22 |
| Womkes | ah, sorry ammar__ I read it wrong | 09:22 |
| RiMMER | why do you guys think it's not ready? | 09:22 |
| LorD_DDooM | ammar__: Your VirtualBox VM should work, if they are stored in /home partition (.virtualboxVM). | 09:22 |
| Womkes | I thought you had 11.04 in vbox environment | 09:22 |
| Womkes | and you want to pdate that one | 09:22 |
| Womkes | yeah I dont know about question | 09:22 |
| Womkes | that is somethign you have to test yeah | 09:22 |
| ammar__ | ah alright. | 09:22 |
| shookees | Hoi everyone | 09:23 |
| Womkes | I am currently running the latest beta for 12.04 in a vbox environment on my windows7 pc | 09:23 |
| Womkes | that works fine | 09:23 |
| ammar__ | my other question is what is LTS? and when is Ubuntu 12.04 going to be released I mean out of beta. | 09:23 |
| LorD_DDooM | But only if you run in normal (user mode), VMs with root priviliges are stored elsewhere and mioght be deleted with the update (this is assuming /home is ona different partition) | 09:23 |
| a_b0y | in the global world of computers and the internet when they say April 26 most would think April 26 midnight at their headquarter's time | 09:24 |
| Womkes | LTS = Long Term Support | 09:24 |
| Womkes | means that version will be supported for 18 months | 09:24 |
| Womkes | but for 12.04 that has been increased to 5 years | 09:24 |
| ammar__ | @Womkes. I mean to say that I am on ubuntu. (it is my primary OS) and I am running virtualbox to run XP in it | 09:24 |
| ammar__ | thats cool | 09:24 |
| Womkes | Usually businesses use the LTS version in their organizations | 09:25 |
| ammar__ | so when is it ganna be released? I mean when is it ganna be out of beta stage? | 09:25 |
| Womkes | e.g. in the company I work for we only upgrade from LTS to LTS | 09:25 |
| Womkes | nothing in between | 09:25 |
| Womkes | Today ammar__ | 09:25 |
| Womkes | 12.04 will be released somewhere today | 09:25 |
| ammar__ | :D thats awesome! | 09:25 |
| textk | ubuntu canonical team is on UTC - 7 ? | 09:25 |
| ammar__ | one more question. | 09:26 |
| Womkes | As far as virtual box goes, just check the vbox website/community for any issues relating 12.04 support | 09:26 |
| RiMMER | UTC-1 | 09:26 |

| ammar__ | if I update to ubuntu LTS. will I be able to update again to other non LTS versions? | 09:26 |
| Womkes | yeah sure | 09:26 |
| hayden_ru_ | mirrors are probably syncing now | 09:26 |
| Womkes | you can do a dist_upgrade whenever you want | 09:26 |
| ammar__ | this is awesome! | 09:27 |
| Womkes | The easiest way to look at it that LTS versions are like major versions and non-LTS minor version like service packs for windows | 09:27 |
| Womkes | not exactly but the general idea | 09:27 |
| SunTsu | ammar__: you can, of course, LTS just means that you a) don't need to upgrade to every release because you'll receive bugfixes for a longer time and b) you can upgrade to the next LTS directly | 09:28 |
| Womkes | for businesses with more long term planning for their IT infrastructure it is better to use the LTS | 09:28 |
| ammar__ | so do u guys know the release time? | 09:29 |
| cdoktor19 | hi | 09:29 |
| Womkes | You can plan a bit more, provides stability that you know that the version you will use is being supported for hte next 5 years | 09:29 |
| a_b0y | so lunbuntu doesn't have ltr? | 09:29 |
| Womkes | Dunno ammar__ somewhere today, think should be somewhere in the next couple of hours | 09:29 |
| Womkes | mirrors are ready | 09:29 |
| nina666 | hi... i've installed vmware player on my machine, but i cannot run it... when I click on the icon, it says several modules need to be compiled and loaded into the kernel, then when i click on install, after asking for the root pass, it tries these modules: 1.Virtual Machine Monitor, 2.Virtual Network Device, 3.Vmware Blocking Filesystem, 4. Virtual Machine Communication Interface, 5.VMCI Sockets. and numbers 2,4 and 5 fail, and it displays this error: Un | 09:29 |
| nina666 | able to start services: See log for file.... any clues whats the problem? | 09:29 |
| Womkes | in the netherlands we have a company that has set up a 3.2 Gbit/sec mirror | 09:29 |
| SunTsu | Womkes: my parents get LTS, too, less work for me, less need to visit them for upgrades ;) | 09:29 |
| Womkes | https://weblog.bit.nl/2012/04/25/voorbereidingen-van-de-nl-mirror-op-ubuntu-12-04-precise-pangolin/ | 09:30 |
| Womkes | its in dutch | 09:30 |
| Hoyt | nina666: did you install the kernel headers | 09:30 |
| Womkes | but they will host one of the major ubuntu mirrors :) | 09:30 |
| nina666 | Hoyt: how should I look for them? | 09:30 |
| Hoyt | nina666: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` | 09:31 |
| a_b0y | how do i make a windows boot usb in linux? | 09:32 |
| Hoyt | a_b0y: use grub4dos | 09:32 |
| a_b0y | ok i'll search for it | 09:32 |
| Hoyt | a_b0y: no , sorry i misunderstand your question , it can only boot some DOS images and linux | 09:33 |
| gorski | will i be able to upgrade from lucid to precise today? | 09:33 |
| nina666 | Hoyt: this is what i get: http://pastebin.com/wsWDZJDE | 09:33 |
| ammar__ | @gorski yes you will | 09:33 |
| Hoyt | a_b0y: use VMware / VIrtualbox , and install windows inside , make your bootable usb | 09:33 |
| gorski | ok, tnx | 09:33 |
| nina666 | Hoyt: which apparently the headers are there... | 09:34 |
| a_b0y | hoyt, i have an iso image of windows and i want to make a bootable usb with it | 09:34 |

| ammar__ | hey | 09:35 |
| Hoyt | a_b0y: i never tried to make a bootable windows installer , usually I use winpe + ghost | 09:35 |
| ammar__ | would I require a CD to burn the image? or can I like directly update? | 09:35 |

| MACscr | i have a headless ubuntu system that im running as a home server. Im intermittedly getting having issues access it on the lan for 15 to 30 seconds at a time every hour or so.

| shomon | hi, I have a laptop which for days now has given very strange errors: seems it could be hardware but I can't figure out what. It boots from live usb, but with crazy graphics artefacts, even in the bios screen | 09:42 |
| shomon | if I plug in something to a USB slot I also get errors | 09:42 |
| shomon | and if I go to an external monitor, the graphics mess doesn't change | 09:43 |
| a_b0y | hoyt do you know a program like "make startup disk" that works for making a windows install usb? | 09:43 |
| Hoyt | a_b0y: definitely not working | 09:43 |

| MACscr | MonkeyDust: gbit lan | 09:43 |
| Hoyt | a_b0y: if you really want a bootable usb installer of windows , you should consider winpe , but I never tried that | 09:43 |

| fsgxdroid0 | and now, in my main machine the 3d won't work anymore | 09:45 |
| Hoyt | fsgxdroid0: maybe sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ? | 09:46 |

| Hoyt | fsgxdroid0: can you try *sudo service lightdm restart* | 09:52 |
| nitzs | so it's out on the mirrors yet? | 09:52 |

| LordSputnik | f0x: those iso images are from yesterday | 09:53 |
| Multiply | xzcvczx: I tried upgrading the system, but it failed at setting up grub, I assume. So I tried for 2 hours now, getting in, and when I finally got it right, I followed some instructions telling me to uninstall grub, and reinstall it. So I did. | 09:54 |
| LordSputnik | "25-Apr-2012 16:13" | 09:54 |

| Hoyt | nina666: when you install kernel header for e.g 3.2.0-20 , you must install both linux-headers-3.2.0-20 and linux-headers-3.2.0-20-generic | 09:57 |
| Multiply | xzcvczx: When I finally got that, it took me 10 seconds to boot, from grub. >_< | 09:57 |
| Hoyt | nina666: otherwise you'll be missing some generated files | 09:57 |

| ichilton | I just downloaded that one, but there doesn't seem to be an amd64 yet.. | 09:58 |

| Multiply | xzcvczx: I've been using debian/ubuntu for years, but stuff like this... never. >_< | 09:58 |
| xzcvczx | Shape: as opposed to something nutty like gentoo :P | 09:59 |

| xzcvczx | Shape: and i am more stating a fact... with gui's for everything people are less likely to dive deeper | 10:01 |
| Hoyt | lost-man: i guess | 10:01 |
| === Guest61082 is now known as yvy | ||
| Shape | xzcvczx: Of course you will learn a lot. But the general elitist/linux view is that you have to be a car engineer to be allowed to drive a car. | 10:01 |
| LordSputnik | peter32: what are you trying to do with your data, and what format is it in? | 10:01 |

| xzcvczx | peter32: well what form is the data in? | 10:03 |
| Ben64 | or ... it did 404, works for me now | 10:03 |
| Shape | Yeah, but that's what makes society go. No person on this planet knows everything so that's why we specialize in things. If someone is a business man and does his job it would be silly to expect from him he knows what's going on in the system. He takes it for granted that others have done the checks just like when you go into an airplane you don't know anything of what's actually going on. | 10:03 |

| Lint | ben64 it´s not 404, it´s 701MB ISO file | 10:03 |
| peter32 | <xzcvczx> :It can be in any format that excell can export | 10:03 |

| lpq | i have a broken ubuntu installation | 10:08 |
| shomon | irenicus09, you can use duckduckgo to get a non filterbubbled internet | 10:08 |
| hugol | !Precise | 10:08 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) is the 16th release of Ubuntu and is in Beta testing from 2nd March, Discussion and support until final release in #ubuntu+1 | 10:08 |
| xzcvczx | lpq: what happend that caused the broken installation? | 10:08 |
| lpq | uninstalled nvidia drivers | 10:08 |
| vuth_ | if i installed 1204 final beta and when the final release is out will i have to download again? or will it update to final release for me? | 10:08 |
| lpq | then it hosed the system | 10:09 |
| xzcvczx | lpq: #define hosed | 10:09 |
| fsgxdroid0 | Hoyt: http://pastebin.com/7AcG8eJZ | 10:09 |
| shomon | I asked before but got cut off: I have a laptop that shows lots of random graphics artefacts on boot and in the bios, on external monitors and if you bend the keyboard even... | 10:09 |
| lpq | i boot into ubuntu, the os immediately goes into powersave mode | 10:09 |
| Hoyt | hey , why no one read the release schedule ? in the last few days , only things like kernel / translation can suffer to change a lot | 10:09 |
| shomon | and if Iplug in usb it can't numerate it. | 10:09 |
| lpq | if i attempt to boot using recovery mode, the same result | 10:09 |
| mathews | irenicus09, there is an option below the search box as Google.com in English" | 10:09 |
| xzcvczx | lpq: laptop or? | 10:09 |
| shomon | what could be wrong with it? is it time for a new graphics card, or could it be some kind of other thing? | 10:09 |
| lpq | ubuntu boots in recovery, immediately goes into power save | 10:10 |
| lpq | xzcvczx, no, not a laptop | 10:10 |
| yassu | hi | 10:10 |
| xzcvczx | lpq: and i assume its not wakable? | 10:10 |
| Hoyt | fsgxdroid0: here (EE) GLX error: Can not get required symbols. | 10:10 |
| Hoyt | fsgxdroid0: your opengl library is corrupted , i guess | 10:10 |
| fsgxdroid0 | alright | 10:10 |
| yvy | <yassu> hi | 10:11 |
| mathews | lpq, include as many details as possible in ur post | 10:11 |
| xzcvczx | lpq: or do you man that the monitor goes into powersave? | 10:11 |
| yassu | wat time is 12.04 comin out? | 10:11 |
| Ben64 | fsgxdroid0: start up "jockey-gtk" | 10:11 |
| fsgxdroid0 | Hoyt: do i need to recompile it or just using apt-get to reinstall? | 10:11 |
| lpq | xzcvczx, no user input will wake the screen | 10:11 |
| xzcvczx | yassu: when its ready | 10:11 |
| Myrtti | yassu: "today" | 10:11 |
| Shape | yassu http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/ | 10:11 |
| lpq | mouse, keyboard, nothing | 10:11 |
| shomon | maybe something shuold go in the topic about that | 10:11 |
| fsgxdroid0 | Ben64: it says no drivers available for my system | 10:11 |
| xzcvczx | lpq: have you got a ubuntu cd handy? | 10:12 |
| Hoyt | fsgxdroid0: i don't know , did you installed any binary driver , e.g fglrx (ATI's) or nvidia's ? | 10:12 |
| lpq | yes | 10:12 |
| nitzs | shomon: what do you mean by numerate? | 10:12 |
| fsgxdroid0 | Hoyt: yes | 10:12 |
| mathews | shomon, ur post missing many details....describe it well with version too | 10:13 |
| fsgxdroid0 | Hoyt: probably, i need to get rid of those drivers from my system, but i don't know how | 10:13 |
| xzcvczx | Multiply: another hint if you didn't know for using the multiterm... from your gui you can use ctrl-alt-f1 through f6 typically and f7 will take you abck to your gui, if not keep trying higher f keys until you return to gui | 10:13 |
| Hoyt | fsgxdroid0: remove it , that's what caused your opengl library mismatch | 10:13 |
| Hoyt | fsgxdroid0: you don't have cards other than intel's right? | 10:13 |
| fsgxdroid0 | Hoyt: yep | 10:13 |
| Ben64 | fsgxdroid0: what card did you have before | 10:13 |
| MonkeyDust | Multiply or uee ctrl arrow left to return to the gui | 10:14 |
| yvy | <yassu> hi | 10:14 |
| DYSW | Any ideas on how lts will be released ? | 10:14 |
| fsgxdroid0 | ATI radeon | 10:14 |
| Hoyt | fsgxdroid0: apt-get purge fglrx-* | 10:14 |
| Ben64 | DYSW: already is | 10:14 |
| xzcvczx | MonkeyDust: or ctrl-arrow right (multiple times) :P | 10:14 |
| MonkeyDust | DYSW it's not out yet | 10:14 |
| xzcvczx | DYSW: when its ready | 10:14 |

| fsgxdroid0 | The following packages will be REMOVED: fglrx* fglrx-amdcccle* fglrx-updates* | 10:14 |
| lpq | xzcvczx, yes i have a lived cd | 10:14 |
| fsgxdroid0 | Hoyt: ill try restart now : ) | 10:15 |
| DYSW | xzcvczx: Sure, but since the date is set for today, i kind of figured they had a hourly target as well. | 10:15 |
| MACscr | is autostart not available in ubuntu anymore? want a very simple way to run a particular command on boot that will run as the user | 10:15 |
| MACscr | rc.local runs as root | 10:15 |
| xzcvczx | DYSW: well today actually has almost 48 hours so by the 48th hour :) | 10:15 |
| yassu | yvy: yes | 10:15 |
| MonkeyDust | xzcvczx may depend on the timezone ;) | 10:16 |
| Shape | if it's not out then what the hell is this? releases.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso | 10:16 |

| === marco is now known as Guest2288 | ||
| pawdro | great release timing: 12:04 :) | 10:16 |
| DYSW | xzcvczx: LoL Only 24 hours here. No rush so lets see what happens. Using arch mainly so its mostly just for fun | 10:16 |
| xzcvczx | MonkeyDust: yeah but thats the typical response by most open source thinks i believe, that will just be vague as to what timezone its in | 10:16 |
| DYSW | pawdro: That would make sense | 10:17 |
| Hoyt | nina666: i'll try give you a script , did you use Vmware workstation 8 ? | 10:17 |
| === zaba_ is now known as Guest55423 | ||
| xzcvczx | DYSW: well theres only 1hr and 43mins of the 26th left here but i doubt it will be out before out 27th | 10:17 |
| Hoyt | fsgxdroid0: worked ? | 10:17 |
| tarzeau_ | are these right? 128f0c16f4734c420b0185a492d92e52 ubuntu-12.04-desktop-amd64.iso and d791352694374f1c478779f7f4447a3f ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso ? | 10:17 |
| nina666 | Hoyt: thanks, and no, its vmware player.. | 10:17 |
| Ben64 | xzcvczx: its out already | 10:17 |
| Hoyt | nina666: what version ? | 10:17 |
| Myrtti | Ben64: it's not. | 10:17 |
| m0rtal | is it out | 10:17 |
| Ben64 | it is. | 10:17 |
| aditya | it's not officially out the servers are being updated so be patient | 10:17 |
| fsgxdroid0 | Hoyt: indeed - it works perfectly now :) | 10:18 |
| xzcvczx | Ben64: i will wait for the topic and md5sums to be released | 10:18 |
| Hoyt | fsgxdroid0: glad to hear | 10:18 |
| DYSW | Ben64: We are talking 12.04 not 10.04 | 10:18 |
| === yvy is now known as windows | ||
| Hoyt | Yeah , it's so slow out of US | 10:18 |
| xzcvczx | Ben64: as you get a free gift if you wait until its official | 10:18 |
| Ben64 | irc topic is not indicative of a release | 10:18 |
| MonkeyDust | Ben64 use sudo d-release-upgrade to find out if it's out or not | 10:18 |
| Myrtti | Ben64: actually, there is no email on the release mailing list, so it's not. Stop saying it is. | 10:18 |
| vuth_ | hi...does Gnome, Unity, KDE...do the same this? they are all launcher application? you can have one or the other only installed? | 10:18 |
| === windows is now known as windows_xp_user | ||
| MonkeyDust | Ben64 use sudo do-release-upgrade to find out if it's out or not | 10:18 |
| Hoyt | I had to wait for the mirror | 10:18 |
| Ben64 | i'm seeding it on my server. | 10:18 |
| vuth_ | *this = thing | 10:18 |
| Ben64 | it is out. | 10:18 |
| yassu | yvy: when is 12.04 comig out? | 10:18 |
| Myrtti | Ben64: so, it's not out, stop saying it is. | 10:18 |
| Ben64 | it's out | 10:18 |
| tarzeau_ | vuth_: you can have all installed | 10:18 |
| nina666 | Hoyt: VMware-Player-4.0.2-591240.x86_64.bundle | 10:18 |
| SunTsu | I really don't understand the rush for 12.04 - either wait or install current pre-release and update to release | 10:18 |
| aditya | it is more prudent to wait for the md5 | 10:18 |
| Shape | xzcvczx: What free gift??! | 10:18 |
| tarzeau_ | vuth_: but usually just run one of them | 10:19 |
| Ben64 | http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.04/ | 10:19 |
| Ben64 | it is out | 10:19 |
| vega- | always the same ridiculous "it is out!" "no it's not" "yes, it is" debate :) | 10:19 |
| xzcvczx | Shape: you will have to wait and see :) | 10:19 |
| Ben64 | kick me all you want | 10:19 |
| DYSW | yassu: within 48 hours apperently | 10:19 |
| vuth_ | they are all Launchers correct? | 10:19 |
| ikonia | Ben64: please, come on, stop it | 10:19 |
| tarzeau_ | SunTsu: upgrades are messy, if you need to do 10+ | 10:19 |
| Myrtti | Ben64: next one will be with a ban, since it's not out yet. | 10:19 |
| dataviruset | it's out :DD | 10:19 |

| mathews | lost-man, it works it terminal but not sure about is it beta or the release. | 10:22 |
| ThePendulum | I am running Ubuntu 12.04 on a dualscreen set-up. I was wondering if it's possible to have the panel items (notifications, time, auth, etc.) only on one screen, rather than both | 10:23 |
| Myrtti | ThePendulum: you're on the wrong channel for that | 10:23 |
| xzcvczx | ThePendulum: #ubuntu+1 | 10:23 |
| ThePendulum | Oh, oke | 10:24 |
| ThePendulum | It's not really a specific 12.04 issue though, but okay | 10:24 |
| lost-man | mathews, That is why i am also worry to download it... But If it is beta then should name ubuntu-beta or like that... anyway | 10:24 |
| paulus68 | ThePendulum: when you run on 12.04 it is | 10:25 |
| Ben64 | ThePendulum: don't talk about 12.04 in here until the topic changes or people get mad at you | 10:25 |
| ThePendulum | Okay, okay, calm | 10:25 |
| bububuntu | 1 Q? if i have installed ubuntu can i use aptitude install xubuntu-desktop and all sys settings stil are same ? | 10:25 |

| Ben64 | what rules? 12.04 is out but a few people don't want to acknowledge that fact | 10:26 |

| ikonia | jiltdil: that way you will get a confirmed solid released product | 10:39 |
| jiltdil | ikonia,ok i am tryiong to be in patient, so much excited | 10:39 |
| ikonia | jiltdil: I understand, but if you want the right software, wait for the release to be announced so you can be confident | 10:40 |
| nitzs | ikonia: they probabaly are waiting for all the mirrors to sync. the release annocement will be after that. | 10:40 |
| djbenny | also, is there a way to find out redundant packages and sweep them away? | 10:40 |
| ikonia | nitzs: waiting for many things to be setup | 10:40 |
| jiltdil | ikonia, Thanks | 10:40 |
| ikonia | djbenny: that should happen on it's own | 10:40 |
| djbenny | ikonia, but i upgraded the kernel recently and the old one remained on the system | 10:40 |
| ikonia | djbenny: yes, you will always have at least current -1 | 10:41 |
| === dirtydevil__ is now known as dirtydevil | ||
| ikonia | djbenny: a fall back kernel is part of the upgrade process on the kernel | 10:41 |
| Zeny | Is there any expected release time? Maybe based on previously releases.. | 10:41 |
| djbenny | ikonia, ok makes sense | 10:41 |
| ikonia | Zeny: no, there is not | 10:41 |
| Zeny | okay ty | 10:41 |

| Queops | Yeh i was gonna say I only saw ext2 one. | 10:45 |
| nitzs | neL: are the ext4 drivers stable? | 10:45 |

| AndyUbuntu | Morning Ubuntu users | 10:46 |
| nitzs | tero: you proabably should write stuff meant to be shared between windows and uuntu on a NTFS partition. | 10:46 |
| AndyUbuntu | sure this question has been asked many times today | 10:46 |
| AndyUbuntu | :p | 10:46 |
| ikonia | AndyUbuntu: then don't ask it | 10:46 |
| nitzs | haha | 10:47 |
| AndyUbuntu | lol, the legendary ikonia :p | 10:47 |
| mwally_ | does anyone have any idea what time 12.04 will release? | 10:47 |
| ikonia | mwally_: there is no set time | 10:47 |
| neL | tero: what nitzs said! ntfs-3g is really stable now | 10:47 |
| mwally_ | ikonia: i take it youve been getting this question a lot. Thanks :) | 10:47 |
| AndyUbuntu | lol, knew the answer would be soon | 10:47 |
| AndyUbuntu | lol | 10:47 |
| ikonia | guys, visit www.ubuntu.com - when it's release, you'll see it on the main web page | 10:48 |
| ikonia | apply some common sense | 10:48 |
| mwally_ | but I want it now! <g> (sorry) | 10:48 |
| MonkeyDust | or use do-release-upgrade in a terminal and see what it return | 10:48 |
| AndyUbuntu | prob best wait till tomorrow | 10:48 |
| jiltdil | ikonia: why u banned me? | 10:48 |
| ikonia | MonkeyDust: NO | 10:48 |
| AndyUbuntu | says its out today, will take a while though, always does | 10:49 |
| neL | MonkeyDust: it will break things horribly. You can downgrade OS once the upgrade process has started | 10:49 |
| neL | *can't downgrade | 10:49 |
| ikonia | It will get released at some point today, just wait | 10:49 |
| MonkeyDust | neL ikonia tnx for the warning, glad nothing irreversible happened | 10:50 |
| AndyUbuntu | has anyone started using 12.04 yet and if so would it be stable to use consistently? | 10:50 |
| munim_ | http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/ shows the downloads.. its not saying beta there. | 10:50 |
| Guest8793 | Yes I use it everyday for a few weeks now | 10:50 |
| munim_ | does is mean its out? | 10:50 |
| ikonia | AndyUbuntu: the feedback from the beta released has been positive. | 10:50 |
| nitzs | neL: you sound like it's updating to skynet. ;) | 10:50 |
| neL | lol | 10:51 |
| AndyUbuntu | excellent, great to hear thanks :) Always causious about the day of release | 10:51 |
| vuth_ | sorry ikonia i sent the PM to wrong person | 10:52 |
| Zwiebelmus | ikonia seems to have sand in his/her vagina :-D | 10:52 |
| ikonia | Zwiebelmus: unacceptable - stop now, this is your only warning | 10:52 |
| yellabs-r2 | hi there | 10:52 |
| neL | Zwiebelmus: This sure doesn't look like ubuntu talk | 10:52 |
| yellabs-r2 | is there an package for java runtime on 12.04 ? | 10:53 |
| munim_ | wow. sorry man. you didn't need to kick me. just clarifying why its on the releases page | 10:53 |
| vuth_ | can someone send me the offical Ubuntu - Low system requirement version link | 10:53 |
| vuth_ | i know there is one..i think it is the LIGHT version | 10:53 |

| mvineetmenon | which is release party channel? | 10:53 |
| christhisisgool | mvineetmenon: #ubuntu+1 | 10:54 |
| fairuz | mvineetmenon: #ubuntu-release-party | 10:54 |
| mvineetmenon | fairuz thx | 10:54 |
| christhisisgool | oops | 10:54 |
| IWorld | Hi | 10:54 |
| christhisisgool | didnt realize there was an actual release party channel | 10:54 |
| IWorld | I've a quick questoion: when does release Ubuntu 12.04 LTS? 12:00 UTC? | 10:55 |
| IWorld | *question | 10:55 |
| ikonia | IWorld: no set time | 10:55 |
| IWorld | but today? | 10:55 |
| Yaklyan | !party | 10:55 |
| ubottu | Please remember that #ubuntu, #kubuntu, #xubuntu, and #edubuntu are support channels. To countdown to !Precise release and then party once it happens, join #ubuntu-release-party - For in-person parties, see http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/global/1598/detail/ | 10:55 |
| Guest8793 | exit | 10:56 |
| neL | Can channel OP please change the channel title to accommodate the release time ? | 10:56 |
| ikonia | neL: there isn't a release time | 10:56 |
| IWorld | I love Ubuntu :-) | 10:56 |
| neL | Then put a "please don't panic. It will come soon" | 10:56 |
| neL | something of that sort | 10:56 |
| nitzs | the announcement will be put up any moment now. | 10:56 |
| ikonia | no-one reads the topic as you can see, | 10:56 |
| ikonia | nitzs: final warning - you don't know when it will be released, so don't suggest it will be any moment | 10:57 |
| * IWorld is excited | 10:57 | |
| sk1special | is the plus one channel dead? cant get to it | 10:57 |
| ikonia | sk1special: nope, still there and working | 10:57 |
| neL | I see. Whenever the person doing ubuntu.com finishes with homepage, it will be released :D | 10:57 |
| AndyUbuntu | lol | 10:58 |
| sk1special | damn it. so. i was using xwinwrap to run a screensaver as my background.. | 10:58 |
| sk1special | and there was this random box named dnd file i think..so of course i just close it.. was like eh whatever.. | 10:58 |
| sk1special | then it force restarted me and now my menus look like there from windows 98 and my admin password to change settings doesnt work.. | 10:59 |
| sk1special | and im getting this message in the terminal xlib extension RANDR missing | 10:59 |
| sly | Least it looks like one of the bettwe windows releases :) | 10:59 |
| AndyUbuntu | ok, so thought I would ask a poll. What is your preferred way to upgrade? 1. From repo 2. From iso as upgrade or 3. Fresh install ? | 11:00 |
| ikonia | please don't take a poll | 11:00 |
| lpq | anyone able to help with repairing a broken ubuntu install? | 11:00 |
| Duke_13 | poll spam | 11:00 |
| AndyUbuntu | just curious | 11:00 |
| Shape | This is a support channel. | 11:00 |
| ikonia | AndyUbuntu: it doesn't matter what the poll output is | 11:00 |
| Duke_13 | exit | 11:00 |
| christhisisgool | lpq: what is the problem? | 11:00 |
| AndyUbuntu | ok, doesnt matter. would just be interesting | 11:01 |
| Naemdar | Anyone know where to get drivers for a my passport drive? | 11:01 |
| lpq | christhisisgool, uninstalled nvidia drivers, rebooted, now the system immediately enters into powersave mode for the monitor after entering a passphrase | 11:02 |
| ikonia | Naemdar: shouldn't need any | 11:02 |
| neL | Naemdar: it should not need any | 11:02 |
| lpq | i've tried booting into recovery mode through grub, makes no difference | 11:02 |
| neL | all the filesystems are rw on linux | 11:02 |
| Naemdar | It won't mount for some reason. and its in fat32 perhaps changing the file format? | 11:03 |
| christhisisgool | lpq: while i will admit that nvidia drivers are not my specialty, maybe either adding a user that is in a different group or upgrading the kernel would help? | 11:03 |
| lpq | i've tried using a live-cd, swapped xorg.conf with xorg.conf.failsafe, reboot and the os still enters into a powersave mode | 11:03 |
| lpq | upgrading the kernel might have caused this mess to begin with, that or the recent nvidia update about 10 days ago | 11:04 |

| tc_busy | can any one tell how to configure gui in tinycore | 11:05 |
| Naemdar | Or would ntfs be better, I see the ntfs volumes when I go looking for hard drives. Just not going to torrent files to it as its my windows and game drive. | 11:05 |
| sly | Naemdar , why would you want in it fat32 anyway ? Ntfs is pretty widely supported........ | 11:06 |
| nitzs | Naemdar: NTFS is the best option if you want r/w support in both linux and windows. | 11:07 |
| tc_busy | can any one tell how to configure gui in tinycore | 11:07 |
| Naemdar | Last linux I used was lindows and it didn't support ntfs. | 11:07 |
| Naemdar | So will redo the volume under windows as ntfs my thanks. | 11:07 |
| Arnold | Naemdar, I think that distro is quite old. I mean back then sure, NTFS support for Linux wasn't complete, and above all, it was read-only | 11:08 |
| Arnold | Thanks to NTFS-3G, you can mount your NTFS partition with read and write support and get it working just fine | 11:08 |
| Naemdar | I appreciate it. learned something new today. Linux isn't as scary as it used to be. | 11:10 |
| Naemdar | I decided to go dual boot and use linux as my torrent os. | 11:10 |

| pedza | it was | 11:45 |
| gribouille | pedza, when? | 11:45 |
| nitzs | gribouille: only the guys at ubuntu know that. | 11:45 |
| bhaisahab | tc_busy: yeah man typo on my part, it is linuxcommand.org/ | 11:45 |
| pedza | http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/ | 11:45 |
| pedza | there | 11:45 |
| bhaisahab | it's a really good place to start learning some basic commands | 11:45 |
| Rurd2di | pedza: isos are on mirrors | 11:46 |
| tc_busy | bhaisahab: thankyou I will check | 11:46 |
| Rurd2di | but they havent done final sync yet | 11:46 |
| gribouille | I thought it would be released on the 28th | 11:46 |
| Rurd2di | from what i have been told | 11:46 |
| pedza | nope, today | 11:46 |
| Myrtti | pedza: it's not out yet, there is no release announcement. Please don't paste links. | 11:46 |
| gribouille | pedza, that's not what https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule says | 11:47 |
| pedza | well it is the official release date and that is a page on their website | 11:47 |
| * bhaisahab going to dist-upgrade now, seems like files are showing up | 11:47 | |
| pedza | 26th of april is the release date as far as i know | 11:47 |
| tc_busy | bhaisahab: flazx.us site is great really | 11:47 |
| Myrtti | pedza: but it's not announced released yet, so it's not out yet. | 11:47 |
| pedza | but it is | 11:47 |
| GiveUbuntuNOW | I ANNOUNCE UBUNTU IS OUT. there we go its official now YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH | 11:48 |
| pedza | it is out but an announcement hasnt been released yet | 11:48 |
| pedza | yay | 11:48 |
| nitzs | GiveUbuntuNOW: are you trolling? | 11:48 |
| Kriss3d | Has 12.04 gotten released yet ? | 11:48 |
| Myrtti | pedza: no, it's not. and this discussion is something that you can't win. | 11:48 |
| smittix | heh | 11:49 |
| Myrtti | Kriss3d: no. | 11:49 |
| nitzs | pedza: you'll prolly get banned if you start arguing. | 11:49 |
| Kriss3d | ah ok.. but its today right ? | 11:49 |
| smittix | It's not out until it's out. | 11:49 |
| tc_busy | yes released | 11:49 |
| Myrtti | Kriss3d: probably | 11:49 |
| pedza | im not arguing im stating the obvious.. | 11:49 |
| Myrtti | tc_busy: no. | 11:49 |
| smittix | Just because you can see the ISO doesn't mean its out. | 11:49 |
| Kriss3d | Oh i thought today was the big release date | 11:49 |
| pedza | it is | 11:50 |
| Myrtti | pedza: there still might be respins and resyncs into the mirrors | 11:50 |
| === shunyiyi is now known as hutu | ||
| pedza | but they havent made the announcement yet | 11:50 |
| smittix | Kriss3d: It is, but it's not officially out yet. | 11:50 |
| Myrtti | pedza: so keeping that in mind, it's not out until the announcement is done. | 11:50 |
| smittix | You risk using unsynched mirrors etc. | 11:50 |
| Kriss3d | ah ok.. ill try to sit on my thumb then | 11:50 |
| tc_busy | Myrtti: if this is the popularity of ubuntu, no offence I am kinda new to linux trying to learn, wont the server be overly crowded | 11:50 |
| tc_busy | Myrtti: if this is the popularity of ubuntu, no offence I am kinda new to linux trying to learn, wont the server be overly crowded | 11:50 |

| ikonia | Kriss3d: unity is ubuntus default shell for the future | 11:52 |
| Kriss3d | urg.. major setback.. oh well.. its linux.. i get to decide how my x looks.. | 11:53 |
| tc_busy | in ubuntu everything is preloaded right then fow to set up things in arch linux or puppylinux | 11:53 |

| Myrtti | nitzs: still no email on the mailing list, so it's not. | 11:53 |
| * pedza seeds the torrent | 11:54 | |
| wolfmitchell | Hello, for some reason, last night my computer was turning off after running for about 5 minutes... | 11:54 |
| zvacet | Kriss3d: you have many choices berween de or wm | 11:54 |
| zvacet | *between | 11:54 |

| subdesign | out | 11:55 |
| subdesign | guys | 11:55 |
| tc_busy | like i downloaded tinycore can i setup GUI in it its really light only trying to know things ikonia | 11:55 |
| zvacet | Kriss3d: desktop environment window manager | 11:55 |
| ikonia | tc_busy: not sure how that has any relevence, | 11:55 |
| urlwolf | will kubuntu be released at the same time as ubuntu today? | 11:55 |
| tokinwhiteman | ask #kubuntu | 11:55 |
| Kriss3d | ah.. zvacet yeah.. im used to gnome so i configured 11.10 to look like gnome2 | 11:55 |
| Kriss3d | works just fine for me.. but i might try somthing more daring in that direction | 11:56 |
| tc_busy | ikonia i mean how to setup wireless graphics gui in light weight distributions | 11:56 |
| zvacet | tc_busy: if you want to custumize your ubuntu you can try ubuntu minimal | 11:56 |
| ikonia | wireless graphics ? | 11:56 |
| ikonia | you don't need "minimal" | 11:56 |
| ikonia | just change what you want | 11:56 |
| IWorld | http://www.ubuntu.com/start-download?distro=desktop&bits=32&release=lts ? | 11:56 |
| pedza | I haz it. | 11:56 |
| IWorld | Site off-line | 11:56 |
| ikonia | there is no need for special installs | 11:56 |
| tc_busy | ikonia look in tiny core in ifconfig command there is no wlan0 but i have wifi device so | 11:57 |
| ikonia | tc_busy: so ? | 11:57 |
| zvacet | Kriss3d: like ikonia said unity is ubuntu shell for future but you can install some other de if you like | 11:57 |
| tc_busy | ikonia so how to set it up to make my wifi device run | 11:57 |
| ikonia | tc_busy: you just said you had wireless | 11:58 |
| delusr_ | Is this for a PC or a Mac http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04/release/ubuntu-12.04-alternate-amd64+mac.iso ?? | 11:58 |
| ikonia | CyberWorld: 64bit mac | 11:58 |
| ikonia | oops | 11:58 |
| ikonia | delusr_: 64bit mac | 11:58 |
| urlwolf | is there a big difference between installing the beta 2 + upgrading, vs installing the release when it comes out today? | 11:58 |
| delusr_ | Wheres the PC version? | 11:58 |
| pixaal | anyone know why banshee isn't playing anything for me? I get the error "GStreamer resource error: NotFound" | 11:58 |
| tc_busy | ikonia right now i am using cable connection | 11:58 |
| nitzs | urlwolf: no | 11:58 |
| Kriss3d | zvacet yeah. | 11:58 |
| urlwolf | : nitzs: thanks | 11:59 |
| P0bailey | urlwolf, upgrading from the beta2 is almost the same | 11:59 |
| ikonia | delusr_: not been released yet, that's why all the people screaming "it's out" look foolish | 11:59 |
| urlwolf | big difference between installing kubuntu vs ubuntu + kde-full? | 11:59 |
| ikonia | urlwolf: ubuntu = gnome kubuntu = kde | 12:00 |
| zvacet | urlwolf: beta with all updates will get you to final release | 12:00 |
| urlwolf | yes, I want kde | 12:00 |
| NICBM | UPDATE THE TOPIC | 12:00 |
| ikonia | NICBM: no | 12:00 |
| urlwolf | but kubuntu has removed the beta isos | 12:00 |
| nitzs | urlwolf: you'd be better off installing kubuntu than going the longer route. | 12:00 |
| NICBM | ikonia: why? | 12:00 |
| urlwolf | so I'm thinking go ubuntu + kde | 12:00 |
| urlwolf | no idea why | 12:00 |
| ikonia | NICBM: because nothing has changed | 12:00 |
| ikonia | urlwolf: ????? just install kubuntu | 12:00 |
| somya | Hi I have performed a ubuntu upgrade to 11.04 but my wi-fi connection is not working properly "wlan0" device is not showing among the network devices | 12:00 |
| urlwolf | there are no kubuntu isos that I can find | 12:01 |
| urlwolf | right now | 12:01 |
| NICBM | O_o | 12:01 |
| ikonia | urlwolf: wait for the release. | 12:01 |
| delusr_ | ikonia I think your a fool have you not seen there homepage?? | 12:01 |
| Zeny | Doh, download site is down.. | 12:01 |

| ikonia | NICBM: try it, see how you like it | 12:02 |
| zvacet | urlwolf: if you don't want to wait for new kubuntu release you can do this http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde | 12:02 |
| yaroyaro | http://www.ubuntu.com/ officially released! :) | 12:02 |
| dr-willis | NICBM: i found it useable in 11.10 | 12:03 |
| smittix | subdesign: go to ubuntu.com and use the link to download. and you will find that it 404's | 12:03 |
| smittix | just chill it wont be long now. | 12:03 |
| ikonia | the channel is now muted | 12:03 |
| ikonia | the ubuntu servers are being updated and prepared for the release. it is NOT out until the release manager states so | 12:03 |
| ikonia | anyone posting links or suggesting it's out when it's not - will be removed | 12:03 |
| subdesign | smittix, site is overloaded , not about not released | 12:03 |
| NICBM | ok | 12:04 |
| smittix | subdesign: Please read ikonia's statement. | 12:04 |
| smittix | FACT. | 12:04 |
| munikar | release time? | 12:04 |
| tc_busy | whats muted? | 12:04 |
| subdesign | cheking | 12:04 |
| smittix | subdesign: a 404 does not mean an overload.. | 12:04 |
| dr-willis | any actual support issues? | 12:04 |
| ikonia | tc_busy: it means can't talk in the channel | 12:04 |
| subdesign | smittix, for me not 404, i have Drupal error site off-line | 12:05 |
| ferni | ikonia: well ubuntu.com says its out | 12:05 |
| smittix | subdesign: well duh... | 12:05 |

| subdesign | we wait | 12:05 |
| smittix | Exactly. | 12:05 |
| Marzata | 12.04 stable? | 12:05 |

| AdiNX | Help? | 12:05 |
| Zeny | arg, how do i disable entered and leave notifications in pidgin? | 12:05 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| dr-willis | Zeny: its a plugin you enable i think | 12:06 |
| dr-willis | Zeny: you may want to try xchat instead | 12:06 |
| smittix | Please see - https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2012-April/000159.html | 12:06 |
| Zeny | hmm arrrha, sounds like it should be a setting, (which i cant find x) | 12:06 |
| lcc | ubuntu 12.04 is released | 12:07 |
| lxgrx | yay | 12:07 |
| ikonia | there you go, release mail 2 minutes ago | 12:07 |
| Zeny | Yah okay, just seam redundant to have 10x software with the same functionality. | 12:07 |
| dr-willis | pidgin in not a great irc client | 12:07 |
| poglavica | gribouille, #ubuntu-release-party * ChanServ has changed the topic to: Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) is released! | 12:07 |
| Zeny | i know now =) | 12:07 |
| lxgrx | but why isn't it included in http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release ? | 12:07 |
| celso_ | when it got released? | 12:07 |
| Rurd2di | my irssi just died dr-willis | 12:07 |
| lcc | the site is down though. | 12:08 |
| dr-willis | Rurd2di: i use weechat | 12:08 |
| tc_busy | ikonia did it release? | 12:08 |
| Multiply | Is there a way to automatically set file permissions to 770, when I create a new file, on NFS? | 12:08 |
| ikonia | tc_busy: according to that email | 12:08 |
| tc_busy | party hurray | 12:08 |
| celso_ | fortunly i got my torrent file just moments before the ubuntu site went down :D | 12:08 |
| ikonia | Multiply: look at file creation mask | 12:08 |
| rapidx_ | Download worked :) | 12:08 |
| Multiply | ikonia: I'll look it up, thanks. | 12:09 |
| tc_busy | like i said overcrowded | 12:09 |
| tc_busy | can ubuntu get leaked before being officially launched | 12:09 |
| bazhang | tc_busy, its out | 12:10 |
| celso_ | think not. why? | 12:10 |
| tc_busy | hi bazhang | 12:10 |
| Rurd2di | nz ftp on citylink is holding up ok | 12:10 |
| lxgrx | when will update manager offer 12.04? | 12:10 |
| jeinor | Should/can PC users the image ubuntu-12.04-desktop-amd64+mac.iso? Or is it only for mac? | 12:10 |
| dr-willis | tc_busy: if you updated and upgraded earlier today it would been same as the released | 12:10 |
| bazhang | lxgrx, when your mirrors are synced, I'd imagine | 12:10 |
| ikonia | lxgrx: when the servers can handle it | 12:10 |
| nitzs | tc_busy: the development of ubuntu is not behind closed doors. so it can never get 'leaked'. | 12:10 |
| tc_busy | dr-willis: thanks | 12:10 |
| ikonia | lxgrx: I'd advise not updating for a day or so as if the servers lose connection during the upgrade (while it's busy) you'll be in a mess | 12:11 |
| bazhang | jeinor, its fine for PCs | 12:11 |
| tc_busy | nitzs: thats deep | 12:11 |
| dr-willis | thats how i normally do a new release | 12:11 |
| Christoph_vW | I tried to report a bug in ubuntu 12.04 but I think I messed it up (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+bug/988819) | 12:11 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 988819 in apache2 (Ubuntu) "wrong path to libxml2.so.2 in mod_security" [Undecided,New] | 12:11 |
| lxgrx | ikonia, does that mean when https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors shows most/all of the servers green? | 12:11 |
| Christoph_vW | can anyone give me a hint how to target the bug report to ubuntu 12.04? | 12:11 |
| jeinor | bazhang, ok, thanks. Whats the difference between ubuntu-12.04-desktop-amd64+mac.iso and ubuntu-12.04-dvd-amd64.iso then? | 12:11 |
| tc_busy | ikonia but it says that nothing affects linux even while udating | 12:11 |
| ikonia | lxgrx: that means they are synced, however I'd advise against upgrading today | 12:11 |
| smittix | Its up and working now. | 12:11 |
| ikonia | tc_busy: what is "it" | 12:12 |
| smittix | Can everyone hold off until I have downloaded the ISO. :) | 12:12 |
| lxgrx | ikonia, i'll try and resist :) thanks | 12:12 |
| Death_Syn | ooh, front page has 12.04 on downloads | 12:12 |
| ikonia | lxgrx: is up to you, it's just advise from experience | 12:12 |
| * Death_Syn snags torrents | 12:12 | |
| dr-willis | smittix: use torrents | 12:12 |
| tc_busy | i read a pdf linux vs windows | 12:12 |
| bazhang | jeinor, more language packs and a bit more I suppose | 12:12 |
| fl1bbl3 | tc_busy: doesn't affect it, but to take advantage of a new kernel you need to boot it | 12:12 |
| jeinor | bazhang: thanks for the info. Only me who is missing an i386 release on http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04/release/? | 12:13 |
| fl1bbl3 | upgrading the kernel doesn't necessitate a reboot though | 12:13 |
| tc_busy | ok fl1bbl3 | 12:13 |
| ikonia | tc_busy: then that pdf is wrong | 12:13 |
| Millenaire | tc_busy, Do you have a link to that PDF? | 12:13 |
| ikonia | fl1bbl3: yes it does | 12:13 |
| fl1bbl3 | no it doesn't | 12:13 |
| tc_busy | well i think i can send one | 12:13 |
| ikonia | fl1bbl3: yes it does | 12:13 |
| Millenaire | Yes plz | 12:13 |
| bazhang | jeinor, may take a few minutes, it's been like 5 mins since release, after all | 12:13 |
| tc_busy | Millenaire: ^ | 12:13 |
| Death_Syn | http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/alternative-downloads | 12:13 |
| ikonia | Death_Syn: why are you posting that ? | 12:13 |
| fl1bbl3 | so I can't have two entries in grub pointing to different kernel levels then? | 12:13 |
| ikonia | fl1bbl3: of course you can | 12:14 |
| celso_ | people, for the download, use the torrent file! | 12:14 |
| jeinor | bazhang: ah, I didn't know. thought it was released earlier today :) | 12:14 |
| Death_Syn | somebody couldn't find the image he needed on the cdimage | 12:14 |
| ikonia | fl1bbl3: you can have as many kernels installed as you want | 12:14 |
| Death_Syn | i was showing the link for the torrents | 12:14 |
| Death_Syn | though it doesn't look like anyone is seeding yet | 12:14 |
| fl1bbl3 | ikonia: I know | 12:14 |
| celso_ | thanks :) | 12:14 |
| Death_Syn | oh | 12:14 |
| Death_Syn | amd64 desktop is coming down | 12:14 |
| Death_Syn | yay! | 12:14 |
| ikonia | fl1bbl3: so why did you just ask if you could do that ? | 12:15 |
| fl1bbl3 | ikonia: I can install new kernel files without rebooting, but I can't use that new kernel without a reboot | 12:15 |
| ikonia | fl1bbl3: apologies if I'm missing the question | 12:15 |
| celso_ | it is. at least i am downloading amd64 and is doing good. | 12:15 |
| tehowe | Oh look the site just went back up | 12:15 |
| ikonia | fl1bbl3: yes, so updating the kernel does need a reboot | 12:15 |
| fl1bbl3 | ikonia: no, _using_ the new kernel needs a reboot | 12:15 |
| celso_ | always having an average of 150 kbs | 12:15 |
| ikonia | oh dear, pointless word play | 12:15 |
| Lint | ubuntu tried to hotswap the kernels two years ago or so | 12:16 |
| urlwolf | I'm going to install kubuntu from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/dvd/current/ | 12:16 |
| urlwolf | please stop me if this is a bad idea | 12:16 |
| fl1bbl3 | ikonia: its not pointless, tc_busy was referring to comparison with windows, where a service pack install needs a full reboot always | 12:16 |
| dr-willis | urlwolf: why use dvd | 12:16 |
| Gnea | urlwolf: why would it be a bad idea? | 12:16 |
| ikonia | fl1bbl3: yes and a kernel install needs a reboot | 12:16 |
| tc_busy | wait | 12:16 |
| ikonia | or it's a pointless task, it's just a file on the machine that's not being used with none of the updates | 12:16 |
| fl1bbl3 | I was pointing out that if you choose to update the files, you have a choice whether to reboot or not depending on when you want to use the new functionality of the new kernel | 12:17 |
| ikonia | as you do with windows you can chose when you reboot after a service pack install | 12:17 |
| dr-willis | new apps may not work untill new kernel is used.... | 12:17 |

| Gorilla_No_Baka | avij: why bovver? a lot faster to download the iso image from the ubuntu site | 12:37 |

| freakabcd | hi all.. is there something wrong with the installer? I have reached the final stage: "Any questions?" and it seems to be downloading some stuff from the internet as i can see the wireless light blinking on my laptop | 12:42 |
| freakabcd | i don;t really see any activity: neither on the usb stick with the live iso nor on the hdd of the laptop | 12:42 |
| steveccc | if i have a copy of 12.04 release candidate from a week ago downloaded - is there any point getting the full iso now or should i just use that and upgrade? | 12:43 |
| freakabcd | almost feels like it is simply downloading the twitter feed and making me wait for no reason | 12:43 |
| steveccc | upgrade / update | 12:43 |
| neL | Is everybody doing a fresh install since everybody is downloading ISO. People don't have faith on dist-upgrade o_O | 12:43 |

| neL | derspankster: why ? I curious. Does it break various packages ? | 12:44 |
| Bennlucky7 | guys, so i must download the iso if my beta can be final release?? | 12:44 |
| iceroot | yassu: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/12.04/release/ | 12:44 |
| Shape | neL: Or some people want to start all over because the system is all cluttered with stuff from experimenting. | 12:44 |
| somsip | neL: last three upgrades I've don have been do-release-upgrade with no real problems but I'll be waiting a few days this time | 12:45 |
| Narsil | I just installed the beta 2, and did some configs, I wouldn't install it again... | 12:45 |
| neL | Shape: That sounds like a fair reason | 12:45 |
| Bennlucky7 | how my beta can be final release guys? | 12:45 |
| yassu | iceroot, thanks | 12:45 |
| Pici | !final | Bennlucky7 | 12:46 |
| ubottu | Bennlucky7: 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. | 12:46 |
| neL | somsip: I too wait for sometime always. somehow breaking production or developments environments is not a good thing | 12:46 |
| zvacet | Narsil: jusy update your system | 12:46 |
| dr-willis | Bennlucky7: update magic | 12:46 |
| zvacet | *just | 12:46 |
| Raydiation | damn people keep ddosing ubuntu.com :D | 12:46 |
| Shape | neL: But yeah, I do agree that I would prefer a fresh install even if it wasn't cluttered. The reason is if something doesn't work or something goes weird, I can always rule out some bug caused by the upgrade. | 12:46 |
| pietro10 | My wireless - BCM4312 - will not work unless I boot into Windows first. The OpenWRT 4312mod thing won't let me connect to anything; the official Broadcom drivers show no connections at all.How do I fix it? Thanks. | 12:46 |

| davis776 | hello, is safe to upgrade ubuntu server 11.10 to 12.04? | 12:48 |
| kjs_ | lol the site is down, i guess they are updating it? | 12:48 |
| Shape | neL: No, i'm actually very noob and just learning linux, and I've already messed with many things. Also, I personalized it in many ways and I just wrote a notepad with things I did, so I can always redo them. Again another reason is just in case some packages break so I won't have to worry about that and rule that possibility out. | 12:48 |
| joemppe | davis776, well, it won't explode in your face into thousands of burning chunks of PCB | 12:49 |
| Shape | neL: Rather than just bumping into a problem and then some Captain Obvious telling me "Have you done a fresh install?" | 12:49 |

| joemppe | davis776, it's going to download a whole bunch of packages so make sure you have some free space | 12:53 |

| lexxmt | Zontax you can upgrade to ext4 and keep all data | 12:53 |

| davis776 | joemppe: I have 13G free, but it will clean after upgrade right? | 12:54 |
| MonkeyDust | davis776 here too, installer removes some obsolete packages | 12:54 |
| liquidat | decksmasher: I have no idea what you used to "download" the disc image to your desktop, but most likely you just created a link. As dr-willis said, just configure vbox to use the real cd drive, and put in the real disc there. | 12:54 |
| Zontax | lexxmt, how ? apt-get upgrade ? | 12:54 |
| joemppe | yeah, it will | 12:54 |

| jrib | elspuddy: yes make sure you're using a local mirror if you choose to update today | 13:24 |
| heckman | alienaut: you need to reinstall OS if you are changing from 32=>64-bit | 13:24 |
| anomalies | alienaut; before it do anything.. the installer will reject | 13:24 |
| elspuddy | thanks :) | 13:25 |
| zykotick9 | alienaut: 32bit->64bit requires a reinstall (do you have separate /home partition) | 13:25 |

| GG111 | bounty: It can't be inside of windows , I'll be clearer : do you mean to have a menu right after you power up the system, that asks you which OS to load ? | 13:25 |

| GG111 | trav1s: what errors are you getting | 13:26 |
| alienaut | have a nice day, thanks a lot again | 13:26 |

| ubottu | Vortexianer: 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. | 13:27 |

| helo | should i abandon attempting to upgrade, and just do a fresh install? | 13:27 |
| joemppe | anomalies, the newer atom models are 64 bit | 13:27 |
| kjs_ | (while the ubuntu.com is down). | 13:27 |

| anomalies | joemppe; thanks dude ;) | 13:29 |
| trav1s | GG111: lol yes i am sshed in now looking at my config | 13:29 |
| ric8cruz | joemppe, I was told 64-bit applications requires more memory because pointers are 64-bits | 13:29 |
| ric8cruz | is there truth to that? | 13:30 |
| trav1s | i'm about to create a whole new one in fact | 13:30 |
| GG111 | so, you can just sftp to the server and put the file there | 13:30 |
| ric8cruz | what are the advantages of 64-bit? is it any faster? | 13:30 |
| GG111 | trav1s: so, you can just sftp to the server and put the file there | 13:30 |
| imetallica | ric8cruz, not exactly but 64bit systems then to be more fat in resources... | 13:30 |
| trav1s | GG111: yes I can, but the non tech saavy person who needs it is not gonna know how to do all that | 13:30 |
| tarzeau | ric8cruz: partly, yes, and you can address more memoyr | 13:30 |
| Morpheus93 | Hello evrybody | 13:30 |
| GG111 | what are the premission on the directory ? | 13:30 |

| GG111 | ls -l $sftp directry | 13:31 |
| trav1s | GG111: i'm trying to figure out where the default FTP directory is | 13:31 |
| joemppe | ric8cruz, if you're short on memory then you may prefer to use the 32 bit version | 13:31 |
| ric8cruz | tarzeau, but my notebook only has 1Gb, so there isn't any benefit to the increased scope of pointers | 13:31 |
| zykotick9 | ric8cruz: if you have less then 4GB RAM use 32bit | 13:31 |
| joemppe | indeed | 13:31 |
| GG111 | trav1s: mmm. I see, I don't know that . | 13:31 |
| ric8cruz | ok, thanks guys | 13:31 |
| tarzeau | ric8cruz: i don't think so | 13:31 |
| GG111 | trav1s: qucik google will tell you that. | 13:31 |
| lineox | I only trust the url direct from ubuntu | 13:31 |
| tarzeau | ric8cruz: 1 GB memory? | 13:31 |
| anomalies | lineox; that's the point of md5 checksum | 13:32 |
| anomalies | :) | 13:32 |
| rawhite | hi im trying to save/resume a libvirt / kvm machine guest while i reboot my host | 13:32 |
| lineox | checksum can be faked | 13:32 |
| ric8cruz | I will update my 32-bit ubuntu, so I guess I would have to do a clean install for the 64-bit version anyhow | 13:32 |
| rawhite | how could i do this ? | 13:32 |
| tottto-drummond | ubuntu website back in service | 13:32 |
| ric8cruz | tarzeau, sure, 1GB. it is a cheap notebook | 13:32 |
| anomalies | lineox; oh is it? :) | 13:32 |
| rawhite | ric8cruz: then dont install 64bit :P | 13:32 |
| tarzeau | ric8cruz: how much GB harddisk? | 13:32 |
| ric8cruz | tarzeau, I bought it recently. here in Portugal, most Eee PC notebook only have 1GB | 13:32 |
| rawhite | ric8cruz: if you dont have at least 3G+ there isnt any benefit of using 64bit | 13:33 |
| ric8cruz | ok, thx | 13:33 |
| imetallica | Eee PC uses Atom processor right? | 13:33 |
| ric8cruz | yes | 13:33 |
| rawhite | imetallica: yes | 13:33 |
| ric8cruz | at least mine does | 13:33 |
| imetallica | won't work 64bits | 13:33 |
| rawhite | imetallica: it has the lm flag | 13:33 |
| zykotick9 | imetallica: some Atoms are 64bit... | 13:33 |
| tarzeau | zykotick9: most aren't | 13:34 |
| imetallica | mine's a dual core Atom and it does not work the 64 bits | 13:34 |
| rawhite | imetallica: at least a netbook that i encountered had that , but it had only 2gb of ram , and it was dualcore with sse3 ssse3 and lm flag | 13:34 |
| rawhite | tarzeau: do you have the lm flag in the /proc/cpuinfo ? | 13:34 |
| UICTamale | let me just say that www.ubuntu.com/tour is brilliant. Well done to all those responsible for that gem. | 13:34 |
| munim | yay its here | 13:35 |
| tarzeau | rawhite: yes, what's the lm flag good for? | 13:35 |
| joemppe | N2xx 32 bit, N4xx, N5xx, N2xxx 54 bit | 13:35 |
| joemppe | 64* | 13:35 |
| OccupyDemonoid | Oh, I cannot wait till this torrent is done. | 13:35 |
| tarzeau | rawhite: wait so all the atom boxes i have here (100+) can do 64bit linux? | 13:35 |
| rawhite | tarzeau: lm shoudl be the 64bit option | 13:35 |

| tarzeau | rawhite: i guess i'll create 64-bit ltsp chroots now... | 13:36 |
| bubus | can´t boot into 12.04 i think nouveau freezes my boot, how i boot with old nvidia drivers? | 13:36 |
| trav1s | GG111: i found the default anon_root directory for vsftpd | 13:36 |
| zykotick9 | Yud_Zroc: drivers would yes | 13:36 |
| rawhite | tarzeau: not sure :) try it and tell me also please :) i dont have the netbook anymore it was not mine | 13:36 |
| trav1s | GG111: it's /var/ftp | 13:36 |

| hal | apt-get install linux-tools for perf in case anyone actually cares. | 13:36 |
| joemppe | jeez, just read intel's product specs | 13:36 |
| rawhite | tarzeau: but whats the point on booting 64bit if you dont have ram to use ? | 13:36 |
| designbybeck | tarzeau: you use ltsp in an educational setting? | 13:36 |
| GG111 | trav1s: ls -l /var |grep ftp | 13:36 |
| Yud_Zroc | zykotick9: thankyou....and the packages (such as flash and MP3 etc)? | 13:36 |
| tarzeau | rawhite: the point is that the ltsp server is running in 64bit | 13:36 |
| rawhite | ltsp is very nice not just in edu :P in enterprise also :D | 13:37 |
| joemppe | you're being too linuxy about this | 13:37 |
| rawhite | tarzeau: oh only 64bit ? | 13:37 |
| tarzeau | rawhite: and we run condor (wisconsin) | 13:37 |
| anomalies | joemppe; only "Pineview" & "Cedar-Trail M" are 64bit | 13:37 |
| designbybeck | in what ways rawhite? | 13:37 |
| lineox | thank you for your hard work everybody! | 13:37 |
| zykotick9 | Yud_Zroc: any packages, will apply to all users as well (that's both system wide installed stuff) | 13:37 |
| tarzeau | rawhite: so when ALL hosts are 64bit, people only compile their code to run on all hosts ONCE instead of once for 64-bit hosts and once for 32-bit hosts | 13:37 |
| Yud_Zroc | zykotick9: thankyou so much | 13:37 |
| joemppe | anomalies, yeah, what I said | 13:37 |
| rawhite | how do i tell my kvm guests to save when the host is shut down and resume when the host is booted ? | 13:37 |
| joemppe | I was looking at nettop atoms earlier when I said late 2009 | 13:37 |
| joemppe | 2008 sorry | 13:38 |
| anomalies | only Asus use it or there is another vendor? | 13:38 |
| joemppe | there are plenty | 13:38 |

| trav1s | clearly that is wrong | 13:40 |
| yunosh | any idea why the update manager is going to remove git when upgrading to precise? | 13:40 |

| KeithWeisshar | i tried to start the download but it won't even start | 13:40 |
| anomalies | i don't think for notebook it will much give any significant improvement for i7 | 13:40 |
| GG111 | it's not Linux permmisions, most likely with you server permissions.. did you follow a step by step guide ? | 13:41 |
| imetallica | KeithWeisshar, go to the alternatives page and get the torrent | 13:41 |
| anomalies | joemppe; well.. it's a thinkpad. :) | 13:41 |

| Jeff123 | imetallica: Thanks. Just to ease my last worry, are there any known issues with 64 bit versions? | 13:45 |
| designbybeck | no prob tarzeau, I'm hoping to deploy LTSP or iTALC in our classrooms soon for a mixed Windows/Linux environment, but i'm new to them both | 13:45 |

| klaas | does ubuntu support full disc encryption with the desktop installation disc or do I still need alternate installer disc? | 14:22 |
| TobiasTheCommie | Pici: df -h / | 14:22 |
| TobiasTheCommie | Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on | 14:22 |
| TobiasTheCommie | /dev/sda5 12G 7.5G 1.6G 83% / | 14:22 |
| TobiasTheCommie | apparanly not :) | 14:22 |
| TobiasTheCommie | i looked at the size and used, not avail. wtf i'll investigate | 14:23 |
| stefg | TobiasTheCommie: there's always some space reserved for root on a default ext2/3/4 file system (like 5%) . you could tune that down to a smaller value with sudo tune2fs /dev/your_device -m 2 | 14:23 |
| aemaeth | first error i notice, dvorak is not the default keyboard layout | 14:23 |
| Pici | TobiasTheCommie: Try cleaning out your apt cache: sudo apt-get clean | 14:23 |
| TobiasTheCommie | *argh* | 14:23 |
| TobiasTheCommie | idiotic | 14:23 |
| TobiasTheCommie | Pici: done that. it is the home folder encryption | 14:23 |
| zardox | When installing new files it "do you want to overwrite 12.04 lts with 12.04 lts" Are we just copying the same install? Why is it called the same thing 12.04 LTS? | 14:23 |
| irv | oh shit! i thought rls was on 28!!! :D | 14:23 |
| TobiasTheCommie | if i do df -h . i get 7.3gigs free | 14:23 |
| TobiasTheCommie | if i do df -h / i get 1.3 gigs free | 14:23 |
| zardox | What is different about the 12.04 LTS files yesterday than today? | 14:23 |
| TobiasTheCommie | same partition, and i have done a reboot since cleaning. still, this is obviously the encfs, i shoudl be able to find something on google now. i hope | 14:24 |
| irv | many downsides to running 64 bit ubuntu ? | 14:24 |
| TobiasTheCommie | Pici: but thanks, i wouldn't have found this issue without your question :) | 14:24 |
| zardox | irv: 1 bit takes 4 bytes | 14:24 |
| limpc | TobiasTheCommie, probably. is mounted | 14:24 |
| Pici | TobiasTheCommie: sure, np. | 14:24 |
| irv | in mem? heh | 14:24 |
| MonkeyDust | irv is your hardware 64bit capable? | 14:24 |
| TobiasTheCommie | limpc: wouldn't a reboot fix that? | 14:25 |
| irv | MonkeyDust: i run win 7 amd64 right now | 14:25 |
| irv | so yes | 14:25 |
| limpc | fix what? | 14:25 |
| zardox | If you already had 12.04 LTS will the new download have anything different? | 14:25 |
| MonkeyDust | irv then you can use ubuntu 64bit, ok | 14:25 |
| TobiasTheCommie | limpc: the free space issue i'm having with encfs | 14:25 |
| limpc | if its a mounted folder that you didnt manually mount, its probably in your fstab and will remount when you reboot | 14:25 |
| limpc | TobiasTheCommie, idk about that i joined towards the end of your issue | 14:25 |
| Guest8383 | Hi, I'm trying to write a script that knows how many new mails come in while I'm away. I think newmail will be a good place to start but can't work out what it wants as far as a mailbox goes? Does it only work for local mailboxes or can I get it to work with IMAP? | 14:26 |
| TobiasTheCommie | limpc: encfs home folder, mounted on login(ie, after x and lightdm is up and running) | 14:26 |
| irv | yeah i know i can, but i'm just wondering if there's any reason i should consider running 32bit aside from the assumed additional support for 32 bit applications, etc | 14:26 |
| TobiasTheCommie | ah, oki. was just the 16:24:55 <limpc> TobiasTheCommie, probably. is mounted | 14:26 |
| irv | like most common stuff you can get a 64 bit package for yes? | 14:26 |
| Mauhdeeb | irv: No real downsides. Were some Adobe issues at first but it all works fairly clean these days | 14:26 |
| TobiasTheCommie | i wanted to make sure i hadn't missed something stupid... again.. | 14:26 |
| irv | awesome. 64bit it is ;] | 14:26 |
| limpc | TobiasTheCommie, yeah you mentioned the difference in df with . and / | 14:26 |
| zardox | irv: I have a win7 machine and am putting 32 bit on. there is no clear benefit for 64 and when looking into it "programs must be coded to use it etc..." if ther OS does how does it help? memory access? speed? | 14:26 |
| limpc | if the current folder is a mounted folder (e.g. of another partition), then it'll of course show a different size | 14:27 |
| limpc | TobiasTheCommie, i believe the installer allows you to set up home as a separate partition by default | 14:27 |
| TobiasTheCommie | limpc: yeah, with the . being /home/<user>/ encfs. but i guess that wasn't obvious | 14:27 |
| zardox | is there a page explaining what 12.04 LTS today is vs. 12.04 LTS a few days ago? | 14:28 |
| zardox | just could not make it 12.05? | 14:28 |
| TobiasTheCommie | i didn't. but, i've locked down the issue enough that i can find a solution on google now. | 14:28 |
| TobiasTheCommie | so, thanks all | 14:28 |
| limpc | a few days ago 12.04 was beta, zardox | 14:28 |
| MonkeyDust | zardox happened once, 6.04 became 6.06 | 14:28 |
| wiherek | so how can i install postfix-policyd on ubuntu 11.04? | 14:28 |
| irv | zardox: wouldn't tehre still be issues accessing > 3.2gb memory in 32 bit? | 14:29 |
| zardox | limpc: so it is a status not a different download? is the rush to update from people with pre-12.04? | 14:29 |
| === mint is now known as tc_busy | ||
| zardox | limpc: 12.04 crashes all the time, isn't working with my dual display right etc... was hoping this 4 hours downloading and installing was getting something new. | 14:29 |

| KeithWeisshar | why can't i use wubu.exe on the root directory of the desktop cd to install from windows? | 14:30 |
| irv | easiest way is to checksum the files | 14:30 |
| Raki1 | does anyone have wubi error saying "prefix is not set" ?? | 14:30 |
| nimesh_accenture | I'm trying to share memory between Android and chrooted ubuntu on the same kernel. any idea how to proceed? | 14:30 |

| Mauhdeeb | someone earlier was stating the checksums were wrong? | 14:30 |
| tc_busy | MonkeyDust: congratulations | 14:30 |
| KeithWeisshar | when i run wubi from the cd it only gives the option to reboot, not install from windows | 14:31 |
| MonkeyDust | tc_busy having issues upgrading? | 14:31 |
| tc_busy | MonkeyDust: yup | 14:31 |
| KeithWeisshar | in the previous version i was able to install using wubi.exe on the cd | 14:31 |
| Raki1 | it seems also tthati cannot install from wubi | 14:32 |
| Raki1 | getting only errors | 14:32 |
| zardox | does anyone have a mac and ubuntu machine? | 14:32 |
| tc_busy | MonkeyDust: why are people saying it is crashing, what is the minimum requirement for it to work | 14:32 |
| KeithWeisshar | why can't i use wubi.exe on the 12.04 cd to install? | 14:32 |
| ikonia | zardox: yes | 14:32 |

| ikonia | rtc: Christoph_vW no | 14:33 |
| MonkeyDust | tc_busy what is crashing? how do you try to upgrade? | 14:33 |
| KeithWeisshar | the wubi.exe on the cd itself only gives option to reboot | 14:33 |
| ikonia | rtc: do not do that | 14:33 |
| ikonia | zardox: a macbook pro | 14:33 |
| stefg | rtc: and do a backup first... upgrades are potentially dangerous | 14:33 |
| zardox | ikonia: you are using on irc? | 14:33 |
| ikonia | rtc: do not do do-release-upgrade -d | 14:33 |
| === GirlyGirl_ is now known as GirlyGirl | ||

| mohd | how can i upgrade ? | 14:34 |
| tc_busy | without -d it says no new release found | 14:34 |
| zardox | ikonia: which computer do you spend more time configuring the Mac or Linux? | 14:34 |
| ikonia | tc_busy: what version of ubuntu are you using ? | 14:34 |
| tc_busy | !upgrade >tc_busy | 14:34 |
| ubottu | tc_busy, please see my private message | 14:34 |
| KeithWeisshar | why is the ability to install using wubi.exe on the cd disabled | 14:34 |
| Pici | tc_busy: then you need to make sure that your computer is up to date with apt-get update/upgrade/dist-upgrade first | 14:35 |
| tc_busy | ikonia 10.10 | 14:35 |
| ikonia | zardox: on my mac I normally use Mac OS, as that's one of there reasons I bought a Maciej_W | 14:35 |
| ikonia | bought a mac sorry | 14:35 |

| ikonia | tc_busy: that is a non-LTS release. | 14:35 |
| tc_busy | ikonia?? | 14:35 |
| tc_busy | ok ikonia | 14:35 |
| Pici | tc_busy: You can't upgrade from 10.10 to 12.04. You'd need to go through 11.04 and 11.10 first. | 14:35 |
| tc_busy | so then what to do ikonia | 14:35 |

| rtc | jrib: this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes does not contain the string 12.04 | 14:40 |

| tc_busy | rtc its step by step | 14:41 |
| Christoph_vW | it will be offered on 10.04 LTS when 12.04 has reached the first point release afaik | 14:41 |

| rtc | ikonia: since they probably use the same method to deteermine if a new release is avaiable | 14:48 |
| domedagen | I don't really know much details. It is 11.04 and has been running great until now. I can start applications but to move windows around causes a freeze | 14:48 |

| Stanley00 | Aga: I think you should upgrade | 14:49 |
| stefg | RxDx: look at bumblebee https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee | 14:49 |

| marek_ | cool, thanks! | 14:51 |
| bobweaver | RxDx, pick the one at login aka lightdm screen press the ubuntu button next to your password box | 14:52 |

| reaper | I guess its just " sudo apt-get update && dist-upgrade " to upgrade to 12.04 right? | 14:53 |
| sary | rtc: right , you must upgrade to 10.10 and the next one until you get the option for 12.04 , but first make sure you update any packages that is shown in the updae manager , then go for the upgrade | 14:53 |
| chrisgeorge | How does one reenable the sources upgrade disabled without manually editing each file? | 14:53 |
| ppyhd | Aga: just use update manager or apt. No need to reinstall from beta. | 14:53 |

| Christoph_vW | sary: no | 14:53 |

| Rhaedas | DLing 12.04 right now...very slowly | 14:55 |
| RyuGuns | Really? | 14:55 |
| rtc | sary: So do I get it right, is an upgrade from 10.04 LTS to 12.04 LTS definitely impossible? | 14:55 |
| RyuGuns | How slow? | 14:55 |
| NurseDad | i upgraded from the beta | 14:55 |
| Aga | Rhaedas: via torrent or direct dl? | 14:55 |
| NurseDad | lol | 14:55 |
| Rhaedas | if you go to 10.10, then you'd have to step through the rest | 14:55 |
| RyuGuns | What are your specs, Rhaedas? | 14:55 |
| eutheria | i am not going to upgrade for a week or more, | 14:56 |
| bazhang | rtc, lts to lts, one step | 14:56 |
| Ammar_ | the current updates are also taking a lot of time to download | 14:56 |
| eutheria | in fact i will only upgrade when i buy a new laptop | 14:56 |
| grafton | touchpad not working on samsung series 3 300v5a | 14:56 |

| sary | assurbanipal: yeah i would do that , perhaps youve installed the shell + shell-extensions from a ppa wich might be out of date. | 15:12 |
| BrixSat | bourke: but when i close pidgin it should stay running, not quit, it should be in the "envelope icon" in the taskbar | 15:12 |

| Slyfer | calme down buddies | 15:25 |
| Whiskey | bazhang: Whats wrong know? It was a questiono | 15:25 |
| DigitalDK | GG111 yeah it's a dual boot with win7 | 15:26 |
| Whiskey | well the third time https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 15:26 |
| GG111 | DigitalDK: did you ever have a dual boot on that system ? | 15:26 |
| NurseDad | DigitalDK: i am on a new duel boot of win 7 and 12.04 | 15:26 |
| bazhang | Whiskey, the servers are still syncing. | 15:26 |
| bazhang | Whiskey, and 12.10 is not out for 6 months | 15:26 |
| DigitalDK | GG111 a long time ago but I had to do a fresh install of windows because the updates corrupted my system. | 15:27 |
| Whiskey | Yeh i did notice | 15:27 |
| DigitalDK | GG111 so I formatted everything and started new. | 15:27 |
| Whiskey | My bad | 15:27 |
| Whiskey | but we try again, the 12.04 is not on that page anyways | 15:27 |
| bazhang | Whiskey, so be patient while they sync | 15:27 |
| Whiskey | But i guss http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/quantal/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/ is that one i search for | 15:27 |
| DigitalDK | NurseDad yeah I figured a lot of people are doing it, but this is the second time it's hung like this on me. | 15:27 |
| GG111 | DigitalDK: mm.. so the answer is no, well, that's a very nasty stage to be stuck at, so, Ubuntu copies the files OK, but never starts installing, correct ? | 15:27 |
| bazhang | Whiskey, thats quantal. 12.10 | 15:28 |
| Whiskey | kk what was 12.04 called? | 15:28 |
| DigitalDK | GG111 that's correct. I click continue before it finishes copying and just gets stuck with the busy icon for the mouse even though the copying continues. | 15:28 |
| * Slyfer slaps Whiskey around a bit with a large trout | 15:28 | |
| koo | can someone help me? upgrading to 12.04 i get an "error: no such partition" for all OSes | 15:28 |
| bazhang | Whiskey, precise pangolin | 15:28 |
| DigitalDK | GG111 after it copies though it just sits and sits and sits. | 15:28 |
| * Slyfer slaps Whiskey around a bit with a large trout | 15:28 | |
| koo | is it grub or something? | 15:28 |
| bazhang | Slyfer, stop that | 15:29 |
| sary | assurbanipal: you need to install the gnome-shell-extensions , since you have gnome-shell 3.4.1 .. the last version of gnome-shell-extensions is 3.4.0 . | 15:29 |
| GG111 | DigitalDK: nasty stuff, mm.. anything in your Bios that can prevent dual boot ? | 15:29 |
| Whiskey | DJ: Im affraid i own you an excuse | 15:29 |
| jatt | I'm running 11.10 how do I upgrade to 12.04 LTS? | 15:29 |
| assurbanipal | sary, yes but is not available in my repos! | 15:29 |
| Sidewinder | Whiskey, Perhaps this is what you're looking for? http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969/ | 15:29 |
| jatt | with update-manager? | 15:29 |
| DigitalDK | GG111 not that I can think of, I was doing it just fine like 6 months ago. Everything is the same as it was then. | 15:29 |
| Rhaedas | yes jatt | 15:29 |
| GirlyGirl | jatt: sudo do-release-upgrade -d | 15:29 |

| sary | assurbanipal: http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-shell-extensions | 15:30 |
| assurbanipal | sary, whf?what dioes that mean? | 15:30 |
| Whiskey | so this one "http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/" | 15:30 |
| bazhang | GirlyGirl, it's been released, and the -d switch is for development not released | 15:30 |
| ardian | Hi I need to know where this is \admin_tools\theming\static\admin_tools\images\django.png how do I search ? | 15:31 |
| GirlyGirl | bazhang: Ah yes forgot about that | 15:31 |
| GG111 | DigitalDK: OK, can't nail this one directly, here's what I would have gone for, had it been my problem : 1. Is the Media OK ? 2. Bios settings 3. Is the Hard drive write proteced in any way | 15:31 |
| assurbanipal | sary, what am i supposed to do there mate? :P | 15:31 |
| assurbanipal | sary, commit some code myself/? :D | 15:31 |
| sary | assurbanipal: i think it might means tha both the shell and the shell-extensions version must match ! | 15:32 |

| jatt | GirlyGirl: so do-release-upgrade -d will upgrade to a development version? | 15:33 |
| crypted | okay this is strange. | 15:33 |
| crypted | bazhang: it shows it now if i remove only show LTS | 15:33 |
| bazhang | jatt, dont use the -d switch | 15:33 |
| crypted | it shows 12.04 LTS after i say any version instaed of just LTS | 15:33 |
| jatt | too late lol | 15:33 |
| crypted | makes no sense to me | 15:33 |
| DigitalDK | GG111 well the disc I just finished downloading the ISO from torrent linked from the ubuntu site. I haven't changed anything in the BIOS since I last dual booted besides some clock frequencies. As for the HDD I've done a dual boot partition several times before so as far as I can tell it's not write protected it's just being a pain in the ass. Maybe I should try writing the file to a disc at a slower speed? | 15:33 |
| koo | anyone - please, after my update to 12.04 i got an "error: no such partition" while booting | 15:33 |
| jatt | the fetching looks correct though: | 15:33 |

| jatt | precise pangolin, no? | 15:33 |
| DigitalDK | No. | 15:34 |
| GirlyGirl | jatt: For now -d is ok as 12.10 repos do not exist yet but best not to use it in future | 15:34 |
| jatt | ok thanks | 15:34 |
| ghabit | Hello. Help! I'm looking for good and easy-to-use DLNA server (for TV connectiong) based on GUI or at least with good front-end. Thanks! | 15:34 |
| Rhaedas | your update manager should show it available too if your settings allow it | 15:34 |
| bazhang | jatt, yes 12.04 | 15:34 |
| sary | assurbanipal: i wounder myself , hold up .. | 15:35 |
| Fyodorovna | ghabit, this is ubuntu support. | 15:35 |
| Whiskey | Are it someone that is relly smart in here | 15:35 |
| GG111 | DigitalDK: maybe, I guess anything goes at this stage, I have my share of bad luck in the past with installs, and I learned that it reaaly depends on *excactly* where the install gets stuck to know - what's causing it. | 15:35 |
| bazhang | Whiskey, pardon? | 15:35 |
| Whiskey | All Linux Distos no matter what it is i think come else as x86 | 15:36 |
| Whiskey | Or AMDx64 | 15:36 |
| Whiskey | And why in the hell is it named AMD? i mean Intel also has x64 i relly don´t get that :D | 15:36 |
| DigitalDK | GG111 and getting stuck after making the partition and copying files isn't one you're used too? :P | 15:36 |
| bazhang | Whiskey, thats offtopic for here | 15:36 |
| GG111 | DigitalDK: also, I'm not sure if ubuntu keeps an install log anywhere, that would have been a dead giveaway to your problem. | 15:36 |
| bazhang | Whiskey, that info is easily searchable on the internet | 15:36 |
| assurbanipal | Whiskey, i think u just need to do some homework before coming and calling people names in public | 15:36 |
| DJ | GG111, look in /var/log | 15:37 |
| GG111 | DigitalDK: well, yes, happend, it was bad Media. | 15:37 |
| Whiskey | Give it a break :=) it can´t be we still talk about Ubuntu dirsto or can do atlest | 15:37 |

| DigitalDK | GG111 I'll just try writing the disc at a slower rate I guess. It's still stuck on that screen so I'll reset, reformat, and try to reinstall. | 15:39 |
| ardian | how can I search for this \admin_tools\theming\static\admin_tools\images\django.png how do I search ? | 15:39 |

| blob4000 | hey, congrats everyone on 12.04. quick question, if i have 12.04 beta2 installed, should i just run updates to get the final 12.04, or should i reinstall completely from the 12.04 disc? | 15:39 |

| vespakoen | or autoconfigure it the ubuntu way? | 15:40 |
| GG111 | DigitalDK: also, if you're going the "bad media" router, did you verify the MD5 on this download ? | 15:40 |
| bazhang | vespakoen, no cursing here | 15:40 |

| noobie_ | so | 15:44 |
| Rhaedas | noobie: did you install Ubuntu in a separate partition or drive? | 15:44 |
| bazhang | noobie_, stop repeating every five seconds | 15:44 |
| noobie_ | a partition? | 15:44 |
| noobie_ | what's one of them | 15:44 |
| === mint is now known as tc_busy | ||
| noobie_ | I told it to overwrite windows | 15:44 |
| Rhaedas | um | 15:44 |
| noobie_ | I assume it keep files right? | 15:44 |
| GG111 | noobie_: no | 15:45 |
| noobie_ | wat | 15:45 |
| noobie_ | what kind of stupidd installer is it then | 15:45 |
| noobie_ | if it can't even keep files | 15:45 |
| GG111 | noobie_: if you told the installed to run over the previous OS, the files are gone. | 15:45 |
| noobie_ | yes | 15:45 |
| noobie_ | OS | 15:45 |
| Rhaedas | it did ask you if you wanted to overwrite WIndows | 15:45 |
| noobie_ | not user data | 15:45 |
| GG111 | noobie_: if user date is on the same partition , then it's gone. | 15:45 |
| noobie_ | what | 15:45 |
| GG111 | if you had a C: and D: drive, C: is gone, D: is there. | 15:45 |
| noobie_ | noooooo | 15:46 |
| bliffle_ | noobie: usually you can find Win files through "Nautilus", which starts when you select 'places' from the top bar or the icon of the filefolder when you popout icons along the left margin. | 15:46 |
| noobie_ | GG111: is there any way I can recover files? | 15:46 |
| noobie_ | some sort of undelete tool for linux? | 15:46 |
| babai | noobie_: this is not a windows upgrade, ubuntu deletes all data in the c drive(or whatever drive it was installed in) | 15:46 |
| GG111 | noobie_: how important were they ? | 15:46 |
| noobie_ | eh | 15:46 |
| noobie_ | some of them were important | 15:47 |

| Baribal | Hi. I'm missing locale information, it seems. I tried dpkg-reconfigure locales, but that only rebuilt existing locale info and didn't allow me to add new ones. What do I have to do? | 15:47 |
| bliffle_ | noobie: you TOLD the installer to replace windows, so it did. | 15:47 |
| a_b0y | noobie_ maybe try to take the hard drive and install it on a computer with windows to see if it recognizes it | 15:48 |
| noobie_ | I backup my important stuff on google dodcs | 15:48 |

| a_b0y | noobie_ if you are a noob, maybe your files are still on the computer you just don't know where to find it because linux doesn't have drives like C: B: D:... etc | 15:49 |
| GG111 | when I installed my first asterisk server, I nuked a 250 GB drive, full with good stuff. | 15:49 |
| GG111 | and this was a time that 250GB was a *lot* of data. | 15:50 |
| a_b0y | noobie_ did you mount the drive? | 15:50 |
| MrKeuner | I have precice pangolin beta installed a week ago, I don't need to do anything, correct? I am LTS now? | 15:50 |

| GG111 | blob4000: the whole world is getting 12.04 now, yes, slow. | 15:51 |
| bazhang | blob4000, torrents are a better option at this point in time | 15:51 |
| blob4000 | thanks. | 15:51 |
| blob4000 | is it just me, or is Linux really taking off this year? | 15:52 |
| Baribal | GG111, the reverse is true for me, I'm still lugging around files from my pre-Linux days. | 15:52 |

| Sidewinder | blob4000, My pleasure. :-) | 15:53 |
| Baribal | GG111, good to know, but I don't think that has to do with me never nuking all my files because of Linux. :) | 15:54 |
| Andy80 | hi, I've this xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/N8SacSFW but on each boot I always get 1024x768 by default.

Thanks! p.s: I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 and Nouveau driver. | 15:54 |

| david_r | okay here's mine: http://pastebin.com/ZuHzwmBn - I'm using two monitors and the nvidia driver, if you're using one monitor you should adjust that, also you're using the open source driver so change that under "device" or install the nvidia binaries.

| sary | dpaigen: so the issue comes from the usb stick itself , i thought youre having an issue booing to the live CD .. in that case it might a grahpic card issue but then you might be able to pass that with some boot-options. | 16:28 |

| Flannel | rhizmoe: So, the Desktop CD is a LiveCD, that you can install from. The alternate CD is an install CD (no LiveCD) its text-based (text menus) and installs from packages contained on the CD. It gives you more flexibility with what to install, | 16:46 |
| action09 | hi on a Giada n20 i install 12.04 but during copy of installation files i've no progress bar increasing and a lot of "ata1.00: status error, configured for UDMA/133 and error [{ UNC } ..any clue please ? | 16:46 |

| tehowe_ | Flannel: Are the amd64-uefi-mac and powerpc desktop ISOs Live CDs as well? | 16:46 |
| rhizmoe | and for what it's worth, the explanation of alternate here seems overly terse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation | 16:46 |
| Flannel | rhizmoe: It's the same installer "experience" as the server CD, and the minimal CD is the alternate CD without the packages. | 16:46 |
| Flannel | tehowe_: Any "Desktop" CD is a LiveCD | 16:47 |
| rymate1234 | hmmm | 16:47 |
| ogra_ | awisepilot, no, it just tells do-release-upgrade "use the next available version" (which is usually the development version) | 16:47 |

| rymate1234 | how would I check what version of ubuntu I'm running | 16:47 |

| Flannel | rhizmoe: The desktop CD installs by copying the LiveCD image onto your computer (so it has very little flexibility on what packages ot install), with the alternate CD, youcan install a GUI, textmode only, only certain packages, etc, etc. | 16:48 |
| ogra_ | awisepilot, since there are thousands of commercial users of ubuntu server, LTS to LTS is always only enabled once the .1 version is out | 16:48 |
| disrageous | tehowe, Literally the "gnome" package, and all its 275 dependencies? | 16:48 |
| Steevca | I have just upgraded to 12.04 and the launcher won't hide.What should i do? | 16:48 |
| david_r | Andy80 and you can probably remove the virtual screen size. | 16:48 |
| yannick | is 12.04 available in software update? couldn't find it atm :( | 16:48 |
| Andy80 | david_r: I remove the whole SubSection? | 16:48 |

| nosbor | rymate1234 I use the nice tool called sysinfo you can get it from the repositories | 16:48 |
| disrageous | tehowe_, Literally the "gnome" package, and all its 275 dependencies? | 16:49 |
| david_r | yeah you probably dont need it any more | 16:49 |
| david_r | if the preferredmode thing works | 16:49 |
| rhizmoe | Flannel: ah, so like "advanced mode," thanks! | 16:49 |
| n8ofsp8ds | can someone please help me | 16:49 |
| Andy80 | david_r: ok, let me try again, thanks :) | 16:49 |

| teicah | how do I zoom desktop in brand new installed precise? | 16:50 |
| Flannel | rhizmoe: Sure, but it can also be simple (asking the same questions as the LiveCD), it just gives you the option of asking more questions | 16:50 |
| n8ofsp8ds | ok my mic freezes ubuntu | 16:50 |
| ogra_ | awisepilot, 12.04 | 16:50 |
| sary | dpaigen: you're most welcom , i think there is a specific kernel boot option to pass your AMD/ATI card , but i can't quite remember ! | 16:50 |
| ogra_ | awisepilot, with 12.04.1 you will not need -d | 16:51 |

| nitzs | why doesn't the dash cover the entire screen? | 16:51 |
| awisepilot | Ogra: I am confussed. You said it was not available until verion 12.04.1. | 16:51 |
| bazhang | !hashes | beachkid | 16:52 |
| ubottu | beachkid: See http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/CDs/12.04/MD5SUMS for the md5sums of the latest Ubuntu release | 16:52 |

| matc21 | cap can't see any errors, they are disappearing instantly | 16:56 |
| zrtsch | I've fixed it before by editing the grub line, but I forget what it was that I changed | 16:56 |
| Andy80 | david_r: I'll just try :) | 16:56 |
| beandog | RobinJ1995: oh yah, derp ... why didnt I think of that. | 16:56 |

| RobinJ1995 | matc21, yay, you've got a crashing lightdm =D | 16:59 |
| RobinJ1995 | honestly, beta 2 was more bugfree than the release xD | 17:00 |
| cap | matc21: Ctrl-ALt-F6 and login | 17:00 |
| matc21 | lemme try | 17:00 |
| matc21 | brb | 17:00 |

| nosbor | (18:01:24) nosbor: i'm sure it's been asked before but does anyone know where the md5sum check sums can be found for 12.04 ? | 17:03 |
| vaska | zghghj | 17:03 |
| llutz | nosbor: http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/MD5SUMS | 17:03 |
| GriGi | Hi, I just updated 11.10 to 12.04 and got little problem with Unity :/. In 11.10 bar on the left was "fixed" but it was hiding when I maximalized something or drag some window over that bar. But now it doesn't hide :/. I found option in Settings -> Apperance, called "autohide", but then bar hide even when nothing is maximised. | 17:03 |
| nosbor | thanks :) | 17:03 |
| Dan-The-Man | nosbor, is it bad that I never check the md5 when installing ubuntu | 17:03 |
| gizero | You're supposed to be able to configure Unity in the Appearence section of system settings I've read, but you can only change like 3-4 things there. That's it? | 17:03 |
| DTS | Jesus is alive amin! | 17:03 |
| GriGi | I want it to hide when some window is maximalised, but when everything is minimalised it shouldn't hide :/. Can I do that? I was trying MyUnity, but it have only the same option like Settings -> Apperance. | 17:04 |

| testi | I have Ubuntu 10.04. How do I update to 12.04? I expected the update management to notify me, but it doesn't | 17:06 |
| RobinJ1995 | testi, update-manager -g (i think) | 17:06 |
| nosbor | Dan-The-Man as it turns out i've just checked it and all is fine. of i go to create the cd from ISO :) | 17:06 |
| r4y | I want to know when 12.04.01 will come out and if I should wait for it to come out?, I want to back up my files from my other hard drive. I just had hard drive troubles, but I used dban then spinrite so I am ready to back up. | 17:07 |
| RobinJ1995 | GriGi, in Unity 2D you can get that beheaviour back using my (unfinished) tool: http://www.robinj.be/unity-2d-config-util/ | 17:07 |
| testi | RobinJ1995, "man update-manager" doesn't list the -g option. | 17:07 |
| RobinJ1995 | testi, just try, i dunno | 17:08 |
| openvoid_ | testi do-releade-update -d | 17:08 |
| RobinJ1995 | testi, my bad, it's -d | 17:08 |
| Pici | openvoid_: RobinJ1995, testi: do not use -d | 17:08 |
| GriGi | RobinJ1995, but it doesn't work in normal Unity, only 2D? Thanks anyway, I'll try it :). | 17:08 |
| testi | RobinJ1995, but -d is for devel-releases | 17:08 |
| RobinJ1995 | oh | 17:08 |
| RobinJ1995 | i thought devel-release just meant release >.< | 17:09 |
| openvoid_ | but its not recommended on companys servers | 17:09 |
| RobinJ1995 | testi, in that case, do what openvoid says | 17:09 |

| dimitris | the screen is too dark to see what is there ! but screen still works ( tested on windows) | 17:11 |
| Guest34418 | Artemis3: YEa... But I would rather my chat client to be better integreated with Unity. | 17:11 |
| Dan-The-Man | Guest34418, just install pidgin, go to system settings, then details, then prefered apps and change it to pidgin | 17:11 |
| belgianguy | Guest34418: xchat? | 17:11 |
| RobinJ1995 | GriGi, it doesn't have a deb package yet. just download the exe here (yes, it's an exe, and yes, it's for linux): http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~robinj/unity-2d-config-util/trunk/files/head:/bin/Debug/ | 17:11 |

| oglavas | I have been using Cinnamon for a couple of weeks now, but just this noon, it gave me an empty desktop with no icons/bars/menus. Does anyone have an idea on what's going on? | 17:12 |
| Monotoko | hmm... why is my update keeping some back? :( I would quite like those wallpapers, I'm on beta2 http://pastebin.com/unjQWNkX | 17:12 |
| testi | What can I do about that? | 17:12 |
| Dan-The-Man | this channel is moving hella fast right now lol | 17:12 |
| testi | Maybe it's not yet on my mirror? | 17:13 |
| RobinJ1995 | GriGi, it's my first linux application, and it's unfinished, but the basic features work well enough. | 17:13 |
| openvoid_ | testi with -d ? | 17:13 |
| Pici | openvoid_: please stop suggesting -d. | 17:13 |
| Guest34418 | belgianguy: Ewww no. Lol, but thanks for the suggestion though. I like Konversation IRC better. The thing with Xchat is that quite a few of their stuff is not documented and I do not like how I can not DO server notices and have /WHOIS appear in the same chat window I am currently looking at. | 17:13 |
| testi | openvoid_ it says -d is for development releases | 17:13 |
| Pici | openvoid_: That is only for upgrading to development releases. 12.04 is no longer the development release. | 17:13 |
| ogra_ | Pici, well, its ok, but should be suggested with a warning | 17:13 |
| openvoid_ | -d is safe until nex week | 17:13 |
| GriGi | RobinJ1995, "sudo apt-get install mono" -> "Can't find package called mono" :/ | 17:13 |
| testi | Could it be that my local mirror doesn't have it yet? | 17:13 |
| trism | Monotoko: you need to: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade; (the ubuntu-wallpapers were split out into ubuntu-wallpapers-precise, so it needs to install a new package) | 17:13 |
| dimitris | the laptop's screen is too dark to see what is there ! but screen still works ( tested on windows) ubuntu works correctly from external monitor ! any sugestions ? | 17:13 |
| RobinJ1995 | GriGi, er... what? >.< don't tell me they removed it from the repos... | 17:14 |
| ogra_ | Pici, -d is exactly what you need until 12.04.1 enables the automatic upgrades | 17:14 |
| Monotoko | trism, that did it! Thank you | 17:14 |
| Pici | ogra_: really? Is this documented anywhere? | 17:14 |
| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, what laptop | 17:14 |
| openvoid_ | the 10.04 will not updated until .1 is out | 17:14 |
| dimitris | emachine e525 | 17:14 |
| nitzs | Dan-The-Man: this moment doesn't occur everyday. | 17:14 |
| dimitris | emachines e525 | 17:14 |
| Artemis3 | dimitris, did you try using the laptop keys for brightness? usually fn - something | 17:14 |
| RobinJ1995 | GriGi, it's been renamed mono-runtime | 17:14 |
| dimitris | yes | 17:14 |
| Monotoko | hmmm... I think the GB repo is being hammered :/ | 17:15 |
| Johhn | My brother trolled my and removed unity from ubuntu 12.04.How do i get it back? | 17:15 |
| dimitris | i have full brightness and software and hardware ;) | 17:15 |
| Johhn | I am stuck with unity-2d | 17:15 |
| RobinJ1995 | Johhn, by torturing him :') | 17:15 |
| intrader | Where does tomboy store files in 11.10. In 10.10 I could find a folder .tomboy (hidden) | 17:15 |
| RobinJ1995 | Johhn, sudo apt-get install unity | 17:15 |
| Johhn | RobinJ1995: That is for sure. | 17:15 |
| Johhn | :D | 17:15 |
| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, please type my name when talking so i can see the comment easier. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1964814 try the section about fixing screen brightness (I realize its a different laptop but its worth a shot) | 17:16 |
| openvoid_ | the 10.04 will not be updated until .1 is out, testi -d will force it, but ok only until next week and not good for valuable servers | 17:16 |
| Artemis3 | dimitris, is it working fine with another OS; live cd? | 17:16 |
| Johhn | RobinJ1995: I did that.I can log out and click the unity but when it enteres there is nothing.Just a wallpaper. | 17:16 |
| Johhn | He tolled me that he had remove compiz package. | 17:16 |
| RobinJ1995 | ouch, er... | 17:16 |
| Pici | openvoid_: sorry, my mistake. | 17:16 |
| Johhn | Unity,unity-desktop or something. | 17:16 |
| RobinJ1995 | Johhn, would explain it. sudo apt-get install ompiz | 17:16 |
| RobinJ1995 | *copiz | 17:17 |
| Johhn | Idiot.I am going to kill him. | 17:17 |
| RobinJ1995 | *compiz | 17:17 |
| RobinJ1995 | can't type xd | 17:17 |
| testi | openvoid, so how would you update after next week and before .1 is out? | 17:17 |
| ogra_ | openvoid, even after next week -d will get you to 12.04 ... (do-release-upgrade wont skip a version) | 17:17 |
| GriGi | RobinJ1995, Okay it shows that I already got mono-runtime. I clicked RMB on that .exe, and choose "run in mono-runtime" and nothing happens. When I choose "run in mono-runtime in console" console just apperars and disappear after one second | 17:17 |
| testi | ogra_, okay - thanks! | 17:17 |
| RobinJ1995 | GriGi, derp | 17:17 |
| auronandace | ogra_: doesn't -d imply development? | 17:17 |
| RobinJ1995 | GriGi, er.... open a terminal and go to the folder where the exe is stored. then run it from a terminal | 17:17 |
| ogra_ | auronandace, yes, but if the next release isnt a development release it will just force the upgrade to the next available | 17:18 |
| RobinJ1995 | GriGi, that way you can see what the problem is, and i can try to fix it now or in a future version :p | 17:18 |
| Dan-The-Man | RobinJ1995, exe for linux!? | 17:18 |
| dimitris | Artemis3 it works fine on windows but i has the same problem and on backtrak :S | 17:18 |
| RobinJ1995 | Dan-The-Man, yes | 17:18 |
| auronandace | ogra_: thanks for the info | 17:18 |
| RobinJ1995 | Dan-The-Man, gnome do, docky, ... are all exe's | 17:18 |
| RobinJ1995 | even tomboy | 17:18 |
| ogra_ | -d just means "do it even if its not enabled yet" | 17:19 |
| GriGi | RobinJ1995, I should type ./filename.exe ? | 17:19 |
| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, did u try my suggestion? | 17:19 |
| RobinJ1995 | GriGi, think so, works for mze | 17:19 |
| === LukeNukem is now known as DarthVader | ||
| anomalies | err.. no aircrack-ng at 12.04 | 17:19 |
| dlentz | Dan-The-Man, mono programs use exe | 17:19 |
| RobinJ1995 | anomalies, airecrack-ng | 17:19 |
| belgianguy | mono = C# wrapper, right? | 17:19 |
| RobinJ1995 | belgianguy, yeah | 17:20 |
| anomalies | ouw | 17:20 |
| GriGi | RobinJ1995, it needed "chmod 777 filename.exe". But when I did that, and then did ./filename.exe it show me a lot of errors :P | 17:20 |

| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, ?!?!? | 17:20 |
| dimitris | Dan-The-Man i am sorry i didn't knew it (about the name) i am reading the solution in order to see if it will work ! | 17:20 |
| RobinJ1995 | GriGi, please pastebin the errors and gimme a link :p | 17:20 |
| RobinJ1995 | should've thought of chmod :p | 17:20 |
| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, haha alright | 17:20 |
| GriGi | RobinJ1995, http://pastebin.com/WsEU3VA2 | 17:20 |
| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, only the section about the screen brightness obviously | 17:20 |
| rodd | Hi folks, I'd love to update my 10.04 lts to 12.04 lts however it isn't showing in the update manager, am I missing something? | 17:20 |
| RobinJ1995 | er | 17:21 |
| fsgxdroid | which version do you prefere for desktop ubuntu, 32bit(with PAE) or 64bit? | 17:21 |
| dimitris | Dan-The-Man i know ;) section 3 ! | 17:21 |
| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, just checkin ;) | 17:21 |
| RobinJ1995 | GriGi, can you make an archive of your /usr/share/unity-2d/ folder and pass it on to me? there's somethiung it doesn't recognise in your QML files | 17:21 |
| Church- | fsgxdroid: i'd choose depending on ram amount. and between 32bit or 64bit, leaving PAE out. | 17:22 |
| razlaz | Hi, someone just asked me to send them my ssh key so I can have access to their server - how do i do this? | 17:22 |
| razlaz | i've made a key with ssh-keygen | 17:22 |
| fsgxdroid | Church-: ok, i have 8gigs of ram, so 64 bit is the way to go? not even considering 32bit + PAE? | 17:22 |
| Artemis3 | rodd, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseNotes/UbuntuDesktop#Upgrading_from_Ubuntu_10.04_LTS_to_Ubuntu_12.04_LTS | 17:22 |
| voobles | anybody knows how to completely remove policykit-1 from 10.04 desktop and if it is at all possible? | 17:22 |
| razlaz | do i just send them my ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub file? | 17:23 |
| Monotoko | razlaz, send them the .pub file in your .ssh folder | 17:23 |
| Church- | fsgxdroid: indeed. just go for normal 64bit. | 17:23 |
| RobinJ1995 | voobles, wouldn't recommend it. last time i tried i ruined everything xd | 17:23 |
| razlaz | Monotoko: okay, thanks! | 17:23 |
| Monotoko | razlaz, no problem :) | 17:23 |
| RobinJ1995 | fsgxdroid, PAE is always slower | 17:23 |
| acalbaza | quick question... i updated to final beta, do i need to perform another update to get to 12.05 LTS? | 17:23 |
| fsgxdroid | RobinJ1995: didn't know that, ty | 17:23 |
| Church- | +even with PAE ram for single app is limited to 2GB | 17:23 |
| acalbaza | 12.04 rather | 17:23 |
| RobinJ1995 | GriGi, you still there? :p | 17:23 |
| Monotoko | acalbaza, I came in with that same question :) just run apt-get dist-upgrade | 17:24 |
| acalbaza | Monotoko: thanks | 17:24 |
| Monotoko | and it'll fetch the new packages | 17:24 |
| Monotoko | no problem :) | 17:24 |
| GriGi | RobinJ1995, Yes, here you go :). http://speedy.sh/tP2Kv/unity-2d.tar.gz | 17:24 |
| dimitris | Dan-The-Man on the link you send me : i have to add : splash acpi_backlight=vendor or splash acpi_backlight=emachines ??? | 17:24 |
| cap | acalbaza: Go to the update manager, click settings and choose LTS, or make sure it is chosen. | 17:24 |
| GriGi | RobinJ1995, but Im on Unity 3D, not 2D, maybe it's because of that? I should be logged into Unity 2D? | 17:24 |
| dimitris | Dan-The-Man is it a varaible ??? :S (not sure :( ) | 17:25 |
| escott | Church-, 4GB for a single app, which is more than sufficient for most applications out there | 17:25 |
| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, vendor should do the trick | 17:25 |
| rodd | Artemis3, got an error GPG error: http://archive.canonical.com lucid Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 | 17:25 |
| RobinJ1995 | GriGi, thanks, I'll examine that and hopefully I'll have a fix ready within a week :p | 17:25 |
| Gary_inNYC | could i run precise pangolin in an older laptop like my thinkpad t40 if I run it with Unity 2d? I've been using lucid for years and just don't know | 17:25 |
| dimitris | Dan-The-Man ok ;) | 17:25 |
| Church- | escott: on 32bit with pae? you get increased total ammount of ram. NOT for single app. | 17:25 |
| RobinJ1995 | probably won't have much time this weekend | 17:25 |
| escott | Church-, you said the limit is 2GB, but its not its 4GB | 17:26 |
| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, u have to restart for it to take effect as well | 17:26 |
| razlaz | Monotoko: then when I've sent it and they've done whatever they need to do, I can just ssh into the server without any specified options? | 17:26 |
| RobinJ1995 | escott, 3.2GB | 17:26 |
| Church- | escott: ok, i'll recheck, as i'm 90% sure it's 2gb | 17:26 |
| Monotoko | razlaz, did you put a passphrase on the key? | 17:26 |
| razlaz | Monotoko: I didn't | 17:26 |
| dimitris | Dan-The-Man "You do not have the permissions necessary to save the file. Please check that you typed the location correctly and try again." | 17:26 |
| Artemis3 | rodd, try to update again software sources | 17:27 |
| escott | Church-, 2^32=4096 MB=4GB | 17:27 |
| Artemis3 | rodd, or change mirror | 17:27 |
| Guest34418 | Artemis3: I do see an option to make pidgin default messenger. | 17:27 |
| Monotoko | razlaz, strongly advise you had but it's okay... your key file acts as the password, just run "ssh <user>@<host>" and it will try your keys with the machine you're logging into | 17:27 |
| B|tchX | yeahhhh bches | 17:27 |
| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, gksu gedit /etc/default/grub | 17:28 |
| Guest34418 | But I do see "Gedit" as default calendar. o_O | 17:28 |
| rodd | Artemis3, alright, will try thanks | 17:28 |
| RobinJ1995 | escott, 2^32=4294967296 | 17:28 |
| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, this will open the file in gedit as root | 17:28 |
| Guest34418 | Hey B|tchX, having fun? | 17:28 |
| razlaz | Monotoko: awesome, thanks! | 17:28 |
| Zermann | Hi, how do i try HUD? | 17:28 |
| Mkaysi | Guest34418: I was wondering that too. Gedit is text editor, not calendar. | 17:28 |
| escott | RobinJ1995, im not sure what you are trying to say to me. I know what 2^32 is. | 17:28 |
| Monotoko | Zermann, the HUD is unity | 17:28 |
| B|tchX | Guest34418, I don't want it yet | 17:29 |
| Zermann | Monotoko, ok what is the key to use it? | 17:29 |
| Dan-The-Man | Zermann, alt | 17:29 |
| dimitris | Dan-The-Man it opened and saved it corectly ! | 17:29 |
| Zermann | Monotoko, tnx! | 17:30 |
| ojii | I'm getting this error http://ubuntuone.com/0YGbfhrp5NaguPAVZBdvIi when trying to upgrade, do i just try later or should I just uninstall those packages? | 17:30 |
| dimitris | Dan-The-Man i am rebooting and i"ll be back ! | 17:31 |
| GriGi | Okay, I have to go. Thanks for help RobinJ1995. Maybe I'll come back here, and I will try you program when you will fix it :). | 17:31 |
| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, kk! | 17:31 |
| danel__ | linux mint x chat seems different then the irc for ubuntu | 17:31 |
| Dan-The-Man | Zermann, hey i answered you lol | 17:31 |
| upset | Hello y'all. Got the alternative iso, ran defect check, getting an error about my md5 checksum. I'm not familiar with this issue. What can I do? | 17:31 |
| B|tchX | what danel__ ? | 17:31 |
| Monotoko | Zermann, indeed... Dan-The-Man gets the credit there :P | 17:31 |
| Zermann | Dan-The-Man, arg i missed you, thank you too | 17:31 |
| Trieste | Hi, I'm using 11.04, and now that 12.04 has been released, I'd like to upgrade to it, but I only get an "upgrade to 11.10" button in the update manager, what should I do? | 17:31 |
| Trieste | upset: redownload, probably | 17:32 |
| Steevca | I am using ubuntu 12.04 and i can't get the unity launcher to autohide when using some program. | 17:32 |
| upset | Trieste: Same place? It was actually the ubuntu website.... | 17:32 |
| Monotoko | Trieste, you will have to do an upgrade to 11.10 then to 12.04... | 17:32 |
| Steevca | I am using unity-2d | 17:32 |
| Monotoko | a clean install would probably be easiest | 17:32 |
| Trieste | upset: or check the md5 checksum of the iso and burn it again | 17:32 |
| cargo23 | In 'Terminal' I need to use the F10 key for htop. However, that brings up a menu instead of being sent to htop. I go to Edit -> Keyboard shortcuts, and it has a checkbox to Enable "Menu Shortcut Keys (F10 by default)". I uncheck the box, but F10 still opens the menu. What to do? | 17:32 |
| upset | Trieste: You should back up for files and do a clean install. | 17:32 |
| Trieste | Monotoko: hrm, I was told I could update straight to 12.04 | 17:33 |
| Dan-The-Man | Monotoko, Zermann, haha | 17:33 |
| upset | Upset: Or? Isn't that what I just did? | 17:33 |
| danel__ | yes ctrl alt +f10 brings me to a terminal prompt | 17:33 |
| Monotoko | Trieste, only if you have 10.04... you can then do the LTS upgrade | 17:33 |
| danel__ | what is the problem that a clean install is needed? | 17:33 |
| Monotoko | not with non-LTS versions | 17:33 |
| dimitris | Dan-The-Man didn't work :( | 17:33 |
| danel__ | can you copy and paste your files to an external drive? | 17:33 |
| upset | Upset: I don't know how to check the md5 checksum before I write it to the usb drive. | 17:33 |
| Dr_willis | !md5sum | 17:34 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 17:34 |
| upset | Dr_Willis ubottu: wonderful | 17:34 |
| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, sorry man, thats all i got | 17:34 |
| openvoid_ | lts to lts update will be available when .1 is out | 17:34 |
| intrader | I have not been able to find out where does tomboy store files in 11.10. In 10.10 I could find a folder .tomboy (hidden) | 17:34 |
| Trieste | Monotoko: oh dammit, I did say I was using 10.04 (accidentally), so that would explain it | 17:34 |
| Steevca | Anyone? | 17:34 |
| rymate1234 | hey | 17:34 |
| pawan_tejwani | Is there any other source to download ubuntu 12.04 LTS other than ubuntu.com ? It's not getting downloaded ... :( | 17:34 |
| Trieste | pawan_tejwani: torrents | 17:34 |
| markss | Today two of my Ubuntu 10.04/lucid machines now give an error on apt-get update saying "GPG error: http://archive.canonical.com lucid Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key <ftpmaster@ubuntu.com>". Has something changed? | 17:34 |
| Dan-The-Man | pawan_tejwani, torrent | 17:34 |
| Dr_willis | pawan_tejwani, best to use the torrents at this time | 17:35 |
| Monotoko | Trieste, that makes sense :) best to do a clean install | 17:35 |
| kuanox | have a problem with ubuntu 12, can update my 11.10 to 12 with skype =/ | 17:35 |
| Trieste | Monotoko: so a clean install (I have a separate /home) is best, you say? | 17:35 |
| Trieste | Monotoko: alright :) | 17:35 |
| dimitris | Dan-The-Man it must be a kernel bug because it did the same also on backtrack ! anyway ! honestly thank you for your time ! | 17:35 |
| danel__ | can or can't update 11.10 to 12 with skype | 17:35 |
| danel__ | be more clear | 17:35 |
| danel__ | you mean you can upgrade but skype is now uninstalled? | 17:35 |
| rymate1234 | pawan_tejwani, use the torrent ;) | 17:35 |
| danel__ | I didn't know 12 was anywhere past beta | 17:35 |
| pankaj | i cant download ubuntu 12.04.. what the heck is going on? | 17:35 |
| kuanox | cant | 17:35 |
| danel__ | easiest thing re install skype | 17:36 |
| rymate1234 | ok | 17:36 |
| danel__ | oh you can't upgrade? | 17:36 |
| daadaa | anyone can help with installing fakeraid (raid 0) in 12.04? ubiquity won't install grub | 17:36 |
| danel__ | well is 12 a full release yet? | 17:36 |
| Dan-The-Man | dimitris, yea anytime | 17:36 |
| pankaj | The requested URL /ubuntureleases//precise/ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso was not found on this server. | 17:36 |
| Dan-The-Man | danel__, yes | 17:36 |
| cousin_luigi | markss: Same here, it's a disgrace. | 17:36 |
| danel__ | oh indeed didn't know 12 was a full release | 17:36 |
| Monotoko | pawan_tejwani, here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/alternative-downloads | 17:36 |
| markss | cousin_luigi: Did something break on the servers then? | 17:36 |
| Monotoko | release was today... the Ubuntu servers will be being hammered | 17:36 |
| upset | Dr_Willis: Gack! Where is Precise's checksum? | 17:36 |
| dimitris | Does anyone have some sugestions about too dark screen on laptop ??? | 17:37 |
| danel__ | usually when an upgrade distro comes out past beta mode a message pops up on my screen asking if I'd like to fully upgrade at this point | 17:37 |
| pawan_tejwani | Monotoko: Hey thanks for that :) | 17:37 |
| cousin_luigi | markss: Dunno, I'm back on my alternate installation. | 17:37 |
| Skaag | 12.04 is being released today? | 17:37 |
| markss | cousin_luigi: (or maybe the servers are just so overloaded they aren't communicating with my systems correctly maybe) | 17:37 |
| danel__ | brb | 17:37 |
| acalbaza | wonders if my eclipse context menu problem is fixed in LTS. | 17:37 |
| upset | Monotoko: Download was pretty fast earlier, even though the front page was down | 17:37 |
| reaper | Just upgraded a Ubuntu to 12.04. Getting a "BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5" when I update. | 17:37 |
| cousin_luigi | markss: they are indeed overloaded and slow, but signatures shouldn't fail | 17:37 |
| danel__ | too dark of a screen depending on your type of lap top probably a button to raise screen brightness is available | 17:37 |
| Steevca | Seroiously,anyone? | 17:37 |
| === ubuntu is now known as STOP_HIGHLIGHTIN | ||
| Steevca | I need help wtih this. xD | 17:37 |
| STOP_HIGHLIGHTIN | :P | 17:37 |
| Monotoko | upset, I'm trying to download some stuff from the repo... the UK servers aren't doing anything very quickly :) | 17:37 |
| Dr_willis | upset, no idea really. some file has them all.. i use torrents so they normally check/verify the iso anyway | 17:37 |
| Skaag | The ubuntu servers are failing under the load. I suggest all you upgrades wait a bit. Maybe tomorrow. | 17:37 |
| pankaj | guys why cant i download this shT? | 17:37 |
| herrtodd | my upgrade install has crapped out during the download of dropbox (lots of other packages have already upgraded.) it's been sitting at 53% for 15 minutes. How should I proceed? From the terminal: http://pastebin.com/qPaapnA9 | 17:38 |
| Dr_willis | pankaj, server overload.... | 17:38 |
| danel__ | like with an old t.v., you can raise the screen brightness by pressing up on what for a t.v. was called picture | 17:38 |
| danel__ | server over load? | 17:38 |
| danel__ | what is the error | 17:38 |
| herrtodd | ctrl-c seems like a very scary solution. | 17:38 |
| dimitris | danel__ no i am not that noob :P !!! there must be something else :S | 17:38 |
| upset | Dr_Willis: Who is they? The original seeder? | 17:38 |
| Monotoko | pankaj, use the torrents: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/alternative-downloads | 17:38 |
| pankaj | Dr_willis, what OMG | 17:38 |
| Dr_willis | upset, theres some md5 file at the download site that has them all. | 17:38 |
| reaper | Change your repos to one in Sweden or someplace if you cant dl. | 17:38 |

| Dr_willis | http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/ | 17:40 |
| danel__ | don't know the answer is there an option to upgrade? | 17:40 |
| danel__ | a beta is not a full release | 17:40 |
| Dr_willis | pankaj, they do and the servers are all getting overloaded. | 17:40 |
| Monotoko | it is a full release | 17:40 |
| danel__ | any to change screen bright ness | 17:40 |

| pankaj | Dr_willis, how many server do they have? | 17:40 |
| dimitris | danel full release | 17:40 |
| upset | Yay, I found the official one | 17:40 |
| danel__ | anyway in power management you can adjust the brightness slider | 17:41 |

| pankaj | i am just curious. i just want know how can i check the number of hits on the sites . means how many people are downloading it right now? | 17:47 |
| rodd | tldr; | 17:47 |
| WoosterB2 | I should add that I can go back to the previous installer step and then proceed again to "Who are you?" Machine isn't hung etc. Button just refuses to work. Seems to be the only problem. Am I alone in experiencing this? | 17:47 |
| L3top | sudo su is not desirable. It does not carry over several env variables, as well as several other behaviors which CAN cause problems. sudo -i or -s is a better idea in general. | 17:47 |
| Dr_willis | rodd, theres some site you can find if you google for 'root shell ubuntu the right way' that gives details | 17:47 |

| L3top | The less concise you are the more conversation is in the room. That is the point of not breaking up your thoughts over several lines. | 17:48 |
| ogra_ | danel__, sudo su preserves your environment, so if you run something using caches it will write as root into your users .cache etc etc ... sudo -i fires upa fresh shell with environment of the root user | 17:48 |

| ghabit | one more question - is there some difference between ubuntu updated to 12.04 and fresh install of 12.04? | 17:49 |
| reaper | markss cousin_luigi Good to know. Not like I trust the Ubuntu repos with all the blobs in the kernel, just feels better know I'm not the only one get boned. | 17:49 |
| danel__ | ogra!: indeed I rarely write to the cache when in sudo su mode | 17:49 |
| ntadej_ | Hi, anybody having problems with software-properties-kde and apport together with python-sip? | 17:49 |
| kuanox | hehehehehhe start the update to 12.04 =] | 17:49 |
| Monotoko | ghabit, not at the core... it's a bit of an open ended question | 17:49 |
| danel__ | ogra: didn't realize this, so sudo -i is better? | 17:49 |

| ogra_ | danel__, right, but someone you suggest sudo su to might run an X app or whatnot under that | 17:50 |
| ogra_ | danel__, yeah, sudo -i is like a fresh login | 17:50 |
| ogra_ | (as root) | 17:50 |
| danel__ | ogra: ok so sudo su if you need to write to the cache, sudo -i to be safe | 17:50 |
| danel__ | ogra: indeed | 17:50 |
| Monotoko | danel__, no | 17:50 |
| danel__ | ogra_ like this? | 17:50 |
| herrtodd | re: my earlier dropbox problem, i'm following the instructions here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+question/175160 | 17:50 |

| belgianguy | about rsync with cups and mysql etc | 17:52 |
| belgianguy | not very clear | 17:52 |
| Monotoko | ghabit, the only differences between upgrading and installing anew is that when you upgrade, everything including your packages is preserved... but it can go wrong because of packages colliding | 17:52 |
| danel__ | Dr_Willis: I'll try and use sudo -l from now on been recommended sudo su by a billion people now is the only reason I use it | 17:52 |

| danel__ | Dr_willis: indeed, look, I write some c and c++ code, not constantly full time. For me addressing the kernel, and not being a normal user, would in any situation I need to use sudo su instead of sudo -i or do you never ever want to write directly to the cache in terminal prompt mode? | 17:55 |

| L3top | amanATdesk: If it takes a long time, or you wait a long time... what exactly is the difference? The ability to reboot? | 18:05 |
| ManuelSantana | is it on freenode network or is it standalone network from ubuntu? upset | 18:05 |
| amanATdesk | hmm, I think it heard you guys - the transfer rate's shot up to 108 kB/s | 18:05 |
| SafariMonkey | ogra_, thanks for the reply. I am just frustrated because it stopped on a dialog near the start and I had been expecting it to be finished when I got back. Nope, many hours left. :/ I wonder if dependent packages could be stalled also? not perfect, but it would mean something would be done by the time I got back. | 18:05 |
| Monotoko | ManuelSantana, we're in freenode | 18:05 |

| samster34 | anyone have a clue why my launcher bar would turn purple? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21007284/purple.png | 18:05 |
| upset | samster34: For fun | 18:06 |
| ogra_ | SafariMonkey, you could file a whishlist bug on launchpad ... not sure thats solvable easily though | 18:06 |
| WoosterB2 | I don't know why it would, but I quite like it | 18:06 |
| samster34 | upset: I'm amused. it can stop now though :/ | 18:06 |
| upset | samster34: Woah, that is extremely weird | 18:06 |
| amanATdesk | L3top, it's taking an inordinately long time to download the software, so I can't see it installing before the night is out. I upgraded another Ubuntu to 12.04 beta, two days ago, and that only took 2hrs | 18:06 |
| upset | samster34: One of those unity tweaking tools can do the trick | 18:06 |
| Monotoko | samster34, MyUnity should be able to fix it (I think) | 18:06 |
| samster34 | upset: it's running in a VM in virtualbox, could it be a video driver thingy...? | 18:07 |

| h2p | Has anyone here ever done stuff with VOIP? I am a computer science student looking for an internship, and got contacted by a company that says they are a VOIP company that makes configurations for phones, uses spreadsheets and visio to make designs, and talks to customers sets up phone systems forthem. Is this a good internship for a CS student or is it a waste of time? | 18:07 |
| upset | samster34: Nah, probably not | 18:07 |
| SafariMonkey | ogra_, not easily, but it would really improve update experience. Would you agree, or is it too minor? | 18:07 |
| L3top | amanATdesk: It was released a few hours ago. you can expect some high volume... and why cant you use your machine while it is upgrading? | 18:07 |
| upset | samster34: But it's not a big detail, and in a VM you shouldn't be surprised | 18:07 |
| ogra_ | SafariMonkey, i surely would agree | 18:07 |
| samster34 | Monotoko: thanks I'll check that out | 18:08 |
| pankaj | h2p, lol | 18:08 |
| Hieberrr | Is there any way to permanently change the Unity launcher colour? Every time I change it with MyUnity, it never takes and changes colour by itself to match my wallpaper. | 18:08 |
| amanATdesk | L3top, I'm trying to give it my full bandwidth, not using the internet heavily at all. | 18:08 |
| upset | Hieberrr: Sounds like a bug. Google it, see if it's happening to anyone else | 18:08 |
| L3top | amanATdesk: you are not the choke. The rest of the world trying to get the same thing would be the load. | 18:08 |
| SafariMonkey | ogra_, now, as I don't reallly know aboyt bug reporting on here (some reason) could you direct me to the appropriate place for such things as this? | 18:09 |
| upset | Hieberrr: Also contribute to the bug report or create one if it doesn't exist | 18:09 |
| Monotoko | amanATdesk, it's not your bandwidth... it's the fact the servers are getting hammered | 18:09 |
| SafariMonkey | *about | 18:09 |
| Hieberrr | thanks guys, ill send a report now | 18:09 |

| satch5150 | i'm fairly certain I'm having hardware issues but not sure where to ask this question so here goes - My computer seems to lock up with my soundcard in it, which is an x-fi elite pro pci (not pcie) card, my mobo is an asus sabertooth with uefi bios and my cpu is an zambezi am3+ ..... im using xubuntu 12.04 bets 2 (ok, yea, I didnt think of it before asking but that could be the problem), but assuming the beta is not the prob, what could | 18:10 |
| satch5150 | it be ? | 18:10 |
| upset | limpc: Be concise, it is more clear to us that way | 18:10 |
| RobinJ1995 | I know it can take a while to resize a partition, but it's been working for 2 hours now, and I don't see any progress yet | 18:10 |
| L3top | Its a few hours... and again... if you are willing to wait till tomorrow, what does the amount of time it takes matter? | 18:10 |
| amanATdesk | L3top, Monotoko - I don't think I explained myself too clearly, I wanted to let it download at fullspeed - but it isn't, which is why I'm here ... | 18:10 |
| samster34 | Monotoko: thanks, that worked. | 18:10 |
| RobinJ1995 | Normal? | 18:10 |
| Monotoko | limpc, you might be best asking in #ubuntu-server | 18:10 |
| upset | satch5150: Go to the xubuntu channel | 18:10 |
| SafariMonkey | ogra_, other? | 18:10 |
| satch5150 | ook, thanks | 18:10 |
| L3top | amanATdesk: again... it was released a few hours ago. There is likely to be a heavy strain on the servers because everyone wants it now. | 18:10 |
| Monotoko | amanATdesk, you explained yourself okay... the fact is that the ubuntu servers will only give you a speed of 50kb or less at the moment | 18:11 |
| upset | satch5150: I don't even think canonical maintains their channel anymore | 18:11 |
| amanATdesk | Anyway, I will cancel and upgrade tomorrow | 18:11 |

| Pici | upset: Canonical doesn't "maintain" any of these channels. This is all volunteer support. | 18:11 |

| satch5150 | upset: ok, I will, but as I said, I think its really hardware, im just wondering specifically what though | 18:11 |
| upset | Pici: Well, yeah. But they set up the bots and own the channel | 18:11 |
| upset | Pici: Or am I wrong? | 18:12 |
| ogra_ | SafariMonkey, oh, no idea other is probably ok | 18:12 |
| RobinJ1995 | I know it can take a while to resize a partition, but it's been working for 2 hours now, and I don't see any progress yet... Normal? | 18:12 |

| dforthman | Hi there. I just did a fresh install of 12.04 (64-bit) and I'm having issues getting my GTX 550 ti graphics adapter to work. It worked fine in 10.04. I've tried searching google but I can't find anything relevant. It works when I switch the main adapter to onboard in bios and use the onboard adapter. | 18:35 |
| Pici | upset: try burning it at the slowest speed your drive supports. | 18:35 |

| enigma2009 | hi all | 18:35 |
| xtjacob | just a quick question, I downloaded the final beta and installed it last night. It should update to the release version right? | 18:35 |
| nadsys1 | hello, have an image we use which was made on a machine with an nvidia G-card, new models now have ati cards, from terminal, what drivers must i uninstall and what drivers do i need to install to get it to work? ty | 18:35 |
| upset | Pici: I don't have a disk drive | 18:35 |
| upset | Pici: USB | 18:35 |
| Kircle | I keep getting errors when trying to update to 12.04 saying it failed to retrieve this and that package. Would I be better upgrading from the 12.04 disc? | 18:35 |
| Pici | l_r: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04/release/ubuntu-12.04-dvd-i386.iso or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04/release/ubuntu-12.04-dvd-amd64.iso | 18:36 |

| l_r | Pici, is the dvd version also live? | 18:37 |
| SafariMonkey | xtjacob, from what I heard yesterday, it should be ale to install without overwriting things that are the same. | 18:37 |
| alien64 | upset: if md5 is bad then ypu have a bad iso get it from a diff mirror | 18:37 |
| SafariMonkey | so should compiz work? | 18:37 |
| upset | alien64: My first one was from the main download page, my second one was from the official torrent | 18:38 |
| xtjacob | Will it work via apt-get upgrade? | 18:38 |
| upset | alien64: How are they even wrong? | 18:38 |
| Pici | l_r: yes | 18:38 |
| openbees | upset | 18:38 |
| SafariMonkey | xtjacob, probably. why not try? | 18:38 |
| upset | openbees: Yes? | 18:38 |
| SafariMonkey | has anyone got compiz working? | 18:39 |
| SafariMonkey | on 12.04 | 18:39 |
| enigma2009 | no idea? | 18:39 |

| mouth1 | i want to be double sure i download only the things i want and not malware or anyhting | 18:46 |
| mouth1 | coming from windows... | 18:46 |
| varikonniemi | since 32 bit is slower, less secure, and will be severely restricted in capabilities when the 5y cycle of LTS is out | 18:46 |
| ogra_ | less secure ??? | 18:46 |
| * samster34 is downloading 64 bit right now, hoping it will run just a teeny bit faster on my laptop in a VM | 18:46 | |
| varikonniemi | budget computers will have 16 gigs of ram and userspace runnign directly on ram etc | 18:46 |
| zykotick9 | varikonniemi: "32 bit is slower" doesn't make sense, in many cases it can be faster... | 18:46 |
| L3top | There is not enough information there Fat-Thing. What are you running to produce that output? rk hunter? | 18:47 |
| varikonniemi | afaik 64bit version uses some protection mechanisms in 64 bit version | 18:47 |

I've tried searching google but I can't find anything relevant. It works when I switch the main adapter to onboard in bios and use the onboard adapter. What do you need to be able to help me get the graphics card working? | 18:49 |
| mouth1 | alien64, but for example it includes the gstreamer-bad plugins, they might be not stable though | 18:49 |
| varikonniemi | there are other distros out there, if ubuntu continues the stride towards where it is headed | 18:49 |
| zykotick9 | helo: using non-completed/testing filesystems always seems silly to me. | 18:49 |
| CalicoJack | bob____, which packages specifically, if you don't mind my asking? | 18:49 |
| helo | zykotick9: i don't understand why it is even an option, particularly for an LTS release | 18:50 |
| bob____ | CalicoJack, adobe-flash-properties-gtk adobe-flashplugin skype skype-bin | 18:50 |
| alien64 | mouth1: yeah not sure on that one not using it | 18:50 |
| helo | i assumed "this is LTS; btrfs must be ready for prime time" | 18:50 |
| zykotick9 | helo: in the default install? | 18:50 |
| kbanman | Is it possible to run a VNC server without X? | 18:50 |
| L3top | yes varikonniemi... you can't be bothered to take on the burden of a discussion in the proper forum... Just complaining about it in open chat... without any experience, just heresay. | 18:50 |
| stefg | dforthman: is that some kind of optimus setup (switching Graphic Adapters on the fly) ? | 18:50 |
| ogra_ | varikonniemi, well, you are free to change but you are also free to participate in public discussions and tell ubuntu devs why you thingk 32bit is less safe than 64 | 18:50 |
| varikonniemi | the fact that some % of ubuntu users have some netbook with 32bit atom or some ancient setup does not mean the recommendation would be 64bit | 18:50 |
| CalicoJack | bob____, thanks for that, I will keep an eye on those | 18:50 |
| varikonniemi | well thats what i am doing here | 18:50 |
| syst3mfailur3 | stefg: so testdisk or SysResCD? | 18:50 |
| helo | zykotick9: it's offered as an option... there are no filesystem options for a fully default install ofc | 18:50 |
| ogra_ | varikonniemi, a huge amount of ubuntu users lives in 3rd world countries | 18:50 |
| dforthman | stefg, No. I disabled the PCI-E adapter in bios and am using the onboard adapter. | 18:51 |
| ogra_ | varikonniemi, thats one of the reasons ubuntu still defaults to CDs for example | 18:51 |
| samster34 | hey, does anyone know a gui tool that allows you to make new/modify old keyboard layouts? | 18:51 |
| bnv | Can anyone please help me? I have a dual monitor setup with two 22" FullHD monitors (3840 x 1080 pixel resolution) and I have an ati radeon HD5770 too, but I can't set that option nowhere to be the desktop extended like in Windows | 18:51 |
| rahulwadh | L3top ubuntu has stopped booting :( | 18:51 |
| L3top | 32 is the MOST compatable across MOST systems in MOST of the world. Of course it is recommended for new users. | 18:51 |
| zykotick9 | varikonniemi: 64bit's advantages are very small in number, and it's major advantage (using more then 4GB memory properly) is probably a minority of systems. | 18:51 |
| varikonniemi | how on earth are you gonna run unity, if not 64bit? | 18:51 |
| stefg | syst3mfailur3: sysrescd has testdisk, and other specialized tools.... it's complete recovery environment | 18:51 |

| varikonniemi | yes, but 32bit hw is not powerfull enough | 18:52 |
| zykotick9 | helo: ok just checking, i don't remember seeing btrfs offered in 12.04 (but wasn't sure, didn't check for it) | 18:52 |
| ogra_ | huh ? | 18:52 |
| mystblade9 | zykotick9: I've always wondered why somebody would want more than 4GB ram, but now I know why. Running servers, using Digital Audio Workstations, copying files, browsing, and playing a game at the same time is very taxing :P | 18:52 |
| zykotick9 | helo: brtfs should be avoided in my opinion, same for zfs on ubuntu | 18:52 |
| CalicoJack | varikonniemi, i don't think you understand the difference between 32bit and 64bit. | 18:52 |
| * ogra_ agrees | 18:52 | |
| varikonniemi | my last 32bit machine was a p4 | 18:52 |
| zykotick9 | mystblade9: i WISH i had way more RAM (only have 4GB) | 18:53 |
| helo | zykotick9: no stability problems that i've notices do far, but performance with dpkg/apt is terrible | 18:53 |
| L3top | varikonniemi: I am quite sure you could not detect a difference between 64 and 32 on identical hw. | 18:53 |
| varikonniemi | the amd3000+ i replaced it with was glorious 64bit | 18:53 |

| Fat-Thing | http://paste.ubuntu.com/947814/ L3top this is the full output of rkhunter :'( | 18:53 |
| ogra_ | varikonniemi, to make full use of 64bit your app needs to actually be written for using the extra registers | 18:53 |
| CalicoJack | varikonniemi, they are still making current hardware with 32 bit processors which are much faster than P4s | 18:53 |
| bnv | but I dont find an alternative for ubuntu | 18:53 |
| varikonniemi | really? | 18:53 |
| mystblade9 | varikonniemi: There are plenty of newer processors that are not 64-bit. Also, 32-bit Ubuntu does run on 64-bit computers, it is just slower. | 18:53 |
| ogra_ | varikonniemi, i doubt more than 10% of the apps in the ubuntu archive actually do that | 18:53 |
| varikonniemi | some atoms is all i know, embedded stuff | 18:53 |
| syst3mfailur3 | stefg: thanks, I'll give it a shot | 18:53 |
| Dr_willis_ | Most arm processors are 32bit. I think 64bit ones are just now comming out. | 18:54 |
| varikonniemi | :D | 18:54 |
| Dr_willis_ | newer atoms are also 64bit. | 18:54 |
| varikonniemi | 64 bit has been desktop standard for 10 years | 18:54 |
| zykotick9 | mystblade9: only if that 32bit cpu supports virtualization can it run 64bit even CLOSE to native. | 18:54 |
| CalicoJack | varikonniemi, atom processors outperform P4s pretty handily | 18:54 |

| kbanman | Dr_willis_: To remotely debug font sizes, etc | 19:00 |

| ogra_ | varikonniemi, unity runs just fine on an OMAP4 ARM cpu with 1G of ram (in 32bit) | 19:00 |
| varikonniemi | idk if some fast 32bit atom with pci-e gfx would suffice, i don't know | 19:00 |
| upset | samster34: The one I used was very fast. Maybe your connection is bad. | 19:00 |
| gorski | when will the upgrade from lucid to precise be avaiable? | 19:00 |
| varikonniemi | all i have seen unity on arm is a HUGE LAGFEST' | 19:00 |
| varikonniemi | so please link video? | 19:00 |
| ogra_ | varikonniemi, where exactly did you see unity on arm yet ? | 19:00 |
| Fyodorovna | upset, you have a bad md5sum, a torrent app will check the iso for finish or needed stuff. | 19:01 |
| ogra_ | (note that i uploaded the final fix to make it work today to the ubuntu archive) | 19:01 |
| samster34 | upset: not that I can tell. direct downloads go as fast as 3MB/s | 19:01 |
| varikonniemi | some demos | 19:01 |
| varikonniemi | on yt | 19:01 |

| ron | can I trigger a fresh installation of 12.04 from 12.04 without burning the iso and running it from disc? | 19:02 |
| varikonniemi | left/right snap and workspace switcher should cover all your needs | 19:02 |
| upset | Fyodorovna: Do you know why md5sum would give me a correct hash, but the live drive's check would not? | 19:02 |
| Fyodorovna | slikts, windows is an easy resize you need to move all the data to the front of its partition at times though. | 19:02 |
| Pici | gorski: you can upgrade now by using the -d switch with do-release-upgrade, but for saftey's sake it won't prompt you until we release 12.04.1 | 19:02 |
| Fyodorovna | upset, yes the iso is incorrect it seems from your description | 19:02 |
| upset | Fyodorovna: md5sum says otherwise | 19:03 |
| upset | Fyodorovna: It's the exact value on the website | 19:03 |

| upset | Fyodorovna: The iso is correct, according to md5sum. When I boot the iso and do a check, it says it is wrong but does not print the incorrect checksum. | 19:04 |
| rfm | uh, is upgrading lucid>precise not even supposed to work yet? having terrible troubles upgrading with the alternate cd.. | 19:04 |
| upset | alien64: I'm very confused though. Why are two of the official ubuntu downloads wrong, especially the torrent one? | 19:05 |
| slikts_ | does anyone else have a problem that alt-tab stops working and just shakes the icons? I need to click the dock with my mouse to change focus! | 19:05 |
| slikts_ | it happens all the time! this is on top of resizing being broken! WTF! | 19:05 |
| upset | slikts_: You can force the icons to wiggle? That's really cute. | 19:05 |
| Dr_willis_ | Wiggle that Icon Baby! ;) | 19:05 |
| Fyodorovna | upset, So what brings you to the channel? | 19:05 |
| alien64 | upset: does it boot? | 19:06 |
| SafariMonkey | I'm sorry if someone has already answered this, but does compiz work on 12.04? | 19:06 |
| slikts_ | in unity 2d the dock icons just shake instead of focusing the window if I'm currently in chromium | 19:06 |
| Dr_willis_ | SafariMonkey, works fine for most people i imagine.. works for me. | 19:06 |
| slikts_ | I've lived through 11.04, daily crashes etc, but this is effing TOO MUCH | 19:06 |
| Fyodorovna | SafariMonkey, Yes, the uunity desktop is a plugin in compiz. | 19:06 |
| despr | Hi, had a problem after an update. Wireless mouse and keyboard stopt working, I can access the box from ssh and the system seems to recognize it in /var/log /kern.log any1 knows a fix or workaround to this?? seems to be a known issue....the google didnt hlp, pleez any1 | 19:06 |
| ogra_ | SafariMonkey, as i said above, unity is a compiz plugin ... so it would be heavily noticed if compiz wouldnt work | 19:06 |
| slikts_ | canonical are basically cretins | 19:07 |
| upset | alien64: Well, not to the desktop. There's no option to do that on the alternative. I'm just talking about the check they have from the initial menu, alongside disk recovery stuff and memtest | 19:07 |
| upset | slikts_ Why do you say this | 19:07 |
| SafariMonkey | hello people! just wondering, does compiz not work on 12.04 default or is there another reason it crashes? I just updated, restarted and got the message that compiz crashed. if I thy to relaunch it it crashes again. :/ | 19:07 |
| upset | slikts_ Get out if you hate Ubuntu | 19:07 |
| CKyle22 | So if I'm running Lucid, I won't get an upgrade notification until 2.04.01? | 19:07 |
| CKyle22 | 12.04.1* | 19:07 |
| Dan-The-Man | SafariMonkey, it works fine for me | 19:07 |
| QuantumQuanta | Is there a way to change notification settings (those text on black boxes that overlay the screen in the upper-right corner for a few seconds)? I can 't seem to find it in the system settings menu. | 19:07 |
| slikts_ | upset: because I'm upset, and eff you | 19:07 |
| dforthman | I just did a fresh install of 12.04 (64-bit) and I'm having issues getting my GTX 550 ti graphics adapter to work. It worked fine in 10.04. I've tried searching google but I can't find anything relevant. I am able to boot after disabling PCI-E graphics in bios and use the onboard adapter. What do you need to be able to help me get the graphics card working? | 19:07 |
| Dan-The-Man | SafariMonkey, must be a driver issue | 19:07 |

| upset | *t think he understands that | 19:08 |
| SafariMonkey | thanks. I felt all but ignored the last 5 last times I posted. | 19:08 |

| dforthman | SafariMonkey, I feel your pain, sir. | 19:09 |
| Dan-The-Man | SafariMonkey, haha yea the channel is crazy crowded right now | 19:09 |
| ZenGuy311 | why am i unable to add-apt-repository on my natty server vps | 19:09 |

| SafariMonkey | and will someone answer dforthman? | 19:09 |

| dforthman | L3top, so you think it's an issue with the default driver? | 19:11 |
| Dan-The-Man | dforthman, as of now what driver are u using | 19:11 |
| hudeki | I'm on 12.04 from beta 1. I was updating all the time. I did not have big updates today, larger then 10MB, how to now that I'm using the latest release? | 19:11 |

| upset | despr: What's your query | 19:11 |
| mouth1 | does the ubuntu software center automatically install 64 bit versions of apps when you are on amd64? | 19:11 |
| Dan-The-Man | dforthman, yea use the proprietary | 19:12 |
| upset | Fyodorovna: You still there? | 19:12 |
| Logan_ | mouth1: Yes, it does. | 19:12 |
| Fyodorovna | upset, yes. | 19:12 |
| Dan-The-Man | mouth1, why yes, yes it does | 19:12 |
| dforthman | Ok, I'll reboot and if I don't return thanks to Dan-The-Man and L3top for your help. Otherwise I'll be back :D | 19:12 |
| mouth1 | Logan_, so i can install flash player from the ubuntu software center or from adobe? | 19:12 |
| upset | Fyodorovna: Know anything that may help me or are you out of ideas besides finding another iso? | 19:12 |
| mouth1 | what's better? | 19:12 |
| L3top | dforthman you might also want to do the reverse of what you have done, and disable the onboard video and run | 19:12 |
| zykotick9 | CKyle22: i've been searching for 10.04->12.04 upgrade info, but can't find anything... i think you might be right about the LTS upgrade not happening until the .1 release - but have no proof. man, good luck with that upgrade - HUGE changes. | 19:12 |
| Logan_ | mouth1: The Software Center is a better solution for Flash. | 19:13 |
| mouth1 | ok thanks Logan_ ! but why? :D | 19:13 |
| L3top | rahulwadh: I do not remember your issue. Remind me | 19:13 |
| Dan-The-Man | mouth1, I would suggest ubuntu-restricted-extras package | 19:13 |
| marw | mouth1, there's a good plugin for flash installation. | 19:13 |
| Logan_ | mouth1: Adobe doesn't provide a .deb file for Flash, and Ubuntu has it packaged. | 19:13 |
| Fyodorovna | upset, not sure really I have never heard of checking the md5 from the alternate, it is a bit confusing the way it looks to me. | 19:13 |
| rahulwadh | everything on my laptop is very slow. I am not able to install 12.04 nor I am able to boot 10.04 L3top | 19:14 |
| Logan_ | mouth1: So I would recommend just getting it from the Sofware Center, or from Terminal with sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer. | 19:14 |
| mouth1 | Dan-The-Man, I don't want that because it installs bad plugins and java! | 19:14 |
| L3top | Fyodorovna: check md5s from ANYTHING. | 19:14 |
| mouth1 | thanks! | 19:14 |

| marw | i have problems with 12.04 and google-chrome: it's not show in dash, alt+tab window, etc. any tips? | 19:14 |
| Dan-The-Man | marw, have u tried chromium from the repos | 19:15 |
| rodd | weird, my update manager says there isn't any update available | 19:15 |
| upset | Fyodorovna: It also gave the end of an address which looked like something from the boot drive. Am I misidentifying it? | 19:15 |
| Fyodorovna | upset, is it a usb or a loop boot? | 19:15 |
| marw | Dan-The-Man, i really want chrome | 19:15 |
| upset | Fyodorovna: USB | 19:15 |
| rahulwadh | it takes around 15 minutes to boot from the LiveUSB L3top | 19:15 |

| L3top | top reveals what processes are running, how many resources they are using etc... but that sounds like you have a hardware problem if both 1004 1204 and usb live disk are problematic. I suspect your RAM is not happy. Use the live disks checkram function to look for a problem. | 19:18 |

| Dr_willis_ | pandeiro, you could set up grub2 to boot differnt ISO files and do it that way. | 19:18 |
| zykotick9 | pandeiro: debian has a 32/64 combo install, ubuntu doesn't by default. it could be done somehow... | 19:18 |

| ubottu | samster34 tried this? it's common with nvidia: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 19:22 |

| ubottu | LABcrab: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' (or 'simple-ccsm' for pre-Oneiric). If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 19:23 |
| Dan-The-Man | LABcrab, install myunity from software center | 19:23 |
| samster34 | ubottu: I've tried nomodeset, not sure if I did it properly though | 19:24 |

| xangua | where can i get ubuntu from torrent¿ i went to alternative downloads and it says 'Page not found' | 19:24 |
| z3r0d3rp | !derp | 19:24 |
| xangua | !alternate | 19:24 |
| ubottu | The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/alternative-download#alternate - See also !minimal | 19:24 |

| ubottu | xangua: Precise can be torrented from http://torrent.ubuntu.com/simple/precise/desktop/ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://torrent.ubuntu.com/simple/precise/server/ubuntu-12.04-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your needs.

| upset | Fyodorovna: Oh, whoops. Should I have cleaned out the drive before writing the iso to it? | 19:24 |
| arianit | z3r0d3rp, that button is not working. I think there are issues with the update manager. I'm running 11.10 btw. any way to enable release update via file editing | 19:24 |
| Dan-The-Man | tiago, anytime! | 19:25 |
| dforthman | Ok, so now my graphics card works, but there's a black bar on the right hand side. I'm looking for a solution now, but if anyone knows what's happening before I find out, please feel free to tell me. | 19:25 |
| LABcrab | Logan_ Dan-The-Man Which driver do i select for my laptop? It gives me two choices. | 19:25 |
| tiago | I'm running with GNOME, didn't like Unity very much.. | 19:25 |
| IamKaiser | Same here tiago | 19:25 |
| Logan_ | LABcrab: Driver? What are the choices? | 19:25 |
| z3r0d3rp | arianit, the preferences dialog is hidden in the menus in your panel | 19:25 |
| L3top | rahulwadh: How do you know the ram is fine? | 19:25 |
| xangua | tiago: nonsense, unity uses gnome ;) | 19:25 |
| LABcrab | Logan_ One with posterior upgrades, the other without. | 19:25 |
| Fyodorovna | upset, Not sure if either clients build partitions, but a clean one is needed. | 19:25 |
| Logan_ | LABcrab: Oh, for your AMD card in Additional Drivers? | 19:26 |
| Dan-The-Man | LABcrab, do the post release | 19:26 |
| upset | Fyodorobna: Okay. Redoing | 19:26 |
| rahulwadh | l3top when I entered the command "top" everything was fine | 19:26 |
| LABcrab | Logan_ Dan-The-Man Will this fix the Unity dock not hiding? | 19:26 |
| upset | Fyodorobna: Oh geez, there's no cancel button. Redoing in a while, I guess... | 19:26 |
| Dan-The-Man | LABcrab, wait what lol. Just install myunity for that | 19:27 |
| Debolaz | I want to replace a specific file in ubuntu, and ensure that packages ignore it. Is that possible? | 19:27 |
| Dan-The-Man | Debolaz, yes | 19:27 |
| despr | anyway u can reconfigure xorg mouse and keyboard shizzle? | 19:27 |
| Logan_ | LABcrab: No, that's different. Install CCSM or MyUnity, and then you can change the auto-hiding preferences. | 19:27 |
| L3top | rahulwadh: that does not mean your ram is functioning correctly, which is why the install menu has a specific utility to check the consistency of your RAM operation. TOP just tells you what is trying to be used by what, not how well, or efficiently it is doing it. | 19:27 |
| Dan-The-Man | Debolaz, just install what ever package and lock it with synaptic | 19:27 |
| jackbrownhf | Does gogo6 IPv6 directly incapsulate IPv4 to IPv6 so client outside internet with IPv4 protocol can see me anyway? | 19:27 |
| rahulwadh | l3top what is the name of that utility? | 19:28 |

| === Guest16751 is now known as Luix | ||
| Dan-The-Man | LABcrab, haha | 19:29 |
| Logan_ | LABcrab: Yes, it was a Canonical decision to make auto-hiding disabled by default in 12.04. | 19:29 |
| LABcrab | Logan_ And take up more screen real estate? | 19:29 |
| L3top | memtest86+ again... if you boot a live disk, it should be one of the options... | 19:30 |
| alphanum | in mirc, how do i open multiple channels with a single cmd? | 19:30 |
| z3r0d3rp | do unified menus disable hud or can they work together? | 19:30 |
| LABcrab | At the very least, let me right-click and auto-hide. Windows has it, Mac has it... | 19:30 |
| hypn0 | domedagen, install a 3d game :-/ like foobilliard | 19:30 |
| alphanum | is it /j ##aws && ##ubuntu | 19:30 |
| LABcrab | Won't it cause screen burn-in to see the dock all the time anyway? | 19:30 |
| Logan_ | LABcrab: If you want a more extensible "dock," you can try Docky, for example. | 19:30 |

| donavan01 | I was wondering if someone knew how to fix this issue... I use mutiple networks and for one of the networks I have to manually set the MTU to 1492 rather than auto.... the other networks seem to work fine with the auto setting... I can use the network manager to do this as it doesnt seem to actually change the MTU if I do a sudo ifconfig wlan0 mtu 1492 then it changes ... but if im not mistaken doesnt this change it for all co | 19:31 |

| intrader | At the end of my rope - I used tomboy notes heavily in 10.10. I need to restore my tomboy notes from a 10.10 backup. In the backup I find a .tomboy folder with all the notes and subfolders | 19:33 |
| mystblade9 | How about not using Windows for a long time because you're constantly in Linux? Would that damage the Windows installation? | 19:33 |
| goddard | how go the upgrade from 11.10 to 12.04? | 19:33 |
| LABcrab | Who gets to vote on things like the Tomboy, the Dock, Banshee versus Rhythmbox, etc. | 19:33 |
| LABcrab | goddard: The only thing that changed is they force you to look at the dock all the time. | 19:34 |
| Pici | LABcrab: They're decided at UDS usually. | 19:34 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | it's not possible for dual booting to hurt a hard drive *physically* in any way | 19:34 |

I just added a menu entry that shows up Ubuntu's boot menu (configfile command); this means that in the boot menu, I have an "Ubuntu" entry which brings me to the Ubuntu boot menu; it works because Ubuntu uses grub2 too. The only problem is whenever Ubuntu updates, it overwrites the MBR, so it goes straight to the Ubuntu boot menu and I can't boot Gentoo. | 19:48 |

| khmerog | i am using 11.10 | 19:56 |
| Logan_ | khmerog: Just open up Update Manager. | 19:56 |
| Ubun2to | Why is the 12.04 live DVD download not online? | 19:57 |
| L3top | either parity short or memory problem samster34. I mean... depends on the bios... but typically it is memory | 19:57 |
| Pici | Ubun2to: it is. | 19:57 |
| Ubun2to | Not for me. | 19:57 |

| samster34 | L3top: I just ran a complete RAM test a while ago | 19:58 |
| Pici | Ubun2to: see cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04/release/ or http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969 | 19:58 |

| LABcrab | Hey Ubuntu! Whoever told me to use MyUnity, it's not launching! i also don't see the point. Why not just have an auto-hide setting from the command line or something? | 19:59 |
| L3top | Memory error will not display anything samster34... though it could be a VGA no output error depending on bios also | 19:59 |
| Logan_ | LABcrab: I recommended CCSM. Install CompizConfig Settings Manager from Ubuntu Software Center. | 19:59 |
| samster34 | why would there be a memory error all of a sudden when it worked a few weeks ago, and hasn't been touched since | 20:00 |
| L3top | samster34: typically a vga bad beep is one long two short iirc | 20:00 |
| spikebike | is the 12.04 release identical to beta2? I ran apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, as well as do-release-upgrade -d with nothing new offered | 20:00 |

| xangua | !beta | spikebike | 20:01 |
| ubottu | spikebike: 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. | 20:01 |
| Logan_ | No problem, khmerog. | 20:01 |

| jschall | they need better servers :( | 20:23 |
| MonkeyDust | scar3crow ubuntu is very popular, the servers are very busy | 20:24 |
| ActionParsnip | scar3crow: try using apt-fast ;) | 20:24 |
| LjL | ... or fewer people frantically downloading on release day :P | 20:24 |
| L3top | I think I misunderstood your question Untouchab1e. I thought you were looking for how the temporary users work on live disks | 20:24 |

| Hubarz | my .iso is corrupted :( | 20:24 |
| scar3crow | ty action | 20:24 |
| ActionParsnip | JessicaW: are you connecting using nautilus? | 20:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Hubarz: use torrents | 20:24 |
| JessicaW | nope | 20:24 |
| Untouchab1e | L3top: Im just trying to get the same functionality in OpenSUSE :) | 20:24 |
| jschall | there should be an apt-get based on torrents | 20:24 |
| jschall | that'd be cool | 20:24 |
| FlimFlamMan | is it possible to upgrade from the 12.04 beta cd, then update packages later to get fully upgraded without downloading a bunch of stuff? | 20:24 |
| JessicaW | ActionParsnip: this is from the command line. | 20:24 |
| jschall | probably too much overhead for small packages, though | 20:24 |
| ActionParsnip | jschall: apt-fast uses 3 sources | 20:25 |
| Estragon | can I easily upgrade from a 32 to a 64 bits ubuntu without losing data ? | 20:25 |
| L3top | scar3crow: jschall: the servers have been throttled purposefully because of the volume of traffic on release day. If you can wait a day or two it will not be this way. | 20:25 |
| ActionParsnip | JessicaW: do you have a desktop UI? | 20:25 |
| MonkeyDust | Estragon backup and fresh install | 20:25 |

| Estragon | thanks MonkeyDust & ActionParsnip | 20:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Estragon: its not an upgrade to change architecture | 20:25 |
| jschall | ActionParsnip: i'd rather not use anything that could mess it up | 20:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Estragon: you should have a backup if your data is important | 20:25 |
| alien64 | getting alot of corrupt iso's and wasted dload time someone needs to fix that :) hint hint ... | 20:26 |
| ActionParsnip | jschall: it's just apt-get + axel | 20:26 |
| heckman | alien64: use torrents | 20:26 |
| L3top | Untouchab1e: if you are indeed talking about the temporary users, I do not believe that a folder is created in Home, firstly. Nor am I familiar with Suse enough to know if it can set a single session nopass user like ubuntu does. | 20:26 |
| Hubarz | is there a list of all aviavible mirrors? | 20:26 |
| ActionParsnip | alien64: use torrents | 20:26 |
| JessicaW | ActionParsnip: yes but I've only rarely used it. | 20:26 |
| scar3crow | ok thanks for the fyi.... I'm backing up my data from a wubi install for a direct install.... very impressed with the release, btw (ty devs) | 20:26 |
| samster34 | help, I can't run the live version or install ubuntu, seems like a video problem, but when I try to boot into the shell with nomodeset, my keyboard doesn't work and I can't do anything | 20:26 |
| heckman | Is there an echo in here? | 20:26 |
| JessicaW | ActionParsnip: it's been mounting fine with sudo mount -t smbfs //server/D$ /mount -o user=samba,pass=password,dir_mode=0775,gid=1009,noperm | 20:26 |

| Estragon | I have backup of important data, but reinstalling every software and configuration will be painful | 20:26 |
| Untouchab1e | L3top: the home folder is placed in /tmp indeed, or at least thats what Ive read | 20:26 |
| Fyodorovna | Hubarz, software sources has a mirror list | 20:26 |
| ActionParsnip | JessicaW: in nautilus you can connect to servers and specify usernames and paswords there | 20:26 |
| L3top | ahh... yes sorry. this is correct Untouchab1e | 20:26 |
| Bennlucky7 | Hubarz: http://releases.ubuntu.com/precise/MD5SUMS | 20:27 |

| Untouchab1e | L3top: phew, haha | 20:27 |
| alien64 | im not upgrading just yet but torrent info is good for those who are | 20:27 |
| FlimFlamMan | if i cancel the upgrade, will the downloads i've gotten so far be kept for when i run it again? | 20:27 |
| JessicaW | ActionParsnip: nautilus. is that like a graphical explorer or something? | 20:27 |
| L3top | Untouchab1e: The /tmp dir is cleared every time a boot happens. | 20:27 |

| samster34 | my keyboard doesn't work when I boot into the shell, what do I do? | 20:27 |
| alien64 | the real problem is ubuntu needs to fix what they didnt get right :) | 20:28 |
| ox1de | can anybody help? | 20:28 |
| Untouchab1e | L3top: oh, really? Thought it was on reboot only... woulndt that mean that if my guest user's home folder is in /tmp/, then it would clear out on logoff automatically? | 20:28 |
| qEssence | i have not tried that NurseDad, sorry, im going to test the nouveau.blacklist=1 option, and see what happens. | 20:28 |

| bc`` | where on earth would i find that mounted? | 20:28 |
| NurseDad | bc: /media | 20:29 |
| NurseDad | i think | 20:29 |
| ambro718 | JessicaW: it's a file manager + draws the desktop and desktop icons (the latter can be disabled after some googling) | 20:29 |
| L3top | bc``: checl /media | 20:29 |
| bc`` | i love you | 20:29 |
| bc`` | i think | 20:29 |
| L3top | check* | 20:29 |
| bc`` | only thing showing there is /cdrom | 20:29 |
| Bennlucky7 | FlimFlamMan its okay u dont have to worry it will continue update again last file | 20:29 |
| JessicaW | ActionParsnip: I"m running 10.04. I think it's thunar file manager or something | 20:30 |
| alien64 | bc``: open file manager see if its there | 20:30 |
| ActionParsnip | alien64: could add the torrent, then kil the torrent client. Copy in the file you have then rerun the client. It may repair the file (or delete it and redownload). Torrents will go faster as it uses the user base and not the Ubuntu servers which are VERY busy | 20:30 |
| FlimFlamMan | Bennlucky7: thanks | 20:30 |

| vexaxv | hey guys does 12.04 have an option to install as an upgrade FROM A USB | 20:38 |
| heckman | samster34: In the past I've had issues with install ISOs, when booting to the distro worked. | 20:38 |
| jrib | finish06: in software properties there should be a tab that lets you configure your repositories/sources | 20:38 |
| ManuelSantana | thanks Logan_ | 20:38 |
| heckman | samster34: specifically with an ATi/AMD video card. | 20:38 |
| upset | What on earth do I do | 20:38 |
| L3top | ox1de: A reinstall would be a grand idea, if you are open to it. Backup your home folder onto something from a live disk... and as 1204 was JUST released (why it is so busy in here), you might just try that. | 20:38 |
| Logan_ | ManuelSantana: No problem. | 20:38 |
| samster34 | heckman: its nvidia, and I can't boot ANY linux | 20:38 |
| ox1de | i cant get into the home folder | 20:39 |
| heckman | samster34: well, you could install using alternative ISO then install your drivers via command-line. | 20:39 |
| ox1de | how do i get the live cd to load from a bad boot? | 20:39 |
| samster34 | heckman: but my keyboard doesn't work when I boot into the shell :/ | 20:39 |
| vexaxv | anyone install 12.04 via usb?? | 20:40 |

| spartan2276 | How can I fix my current Upgrade issues, Ubiquity is just sitting there and it wont finish the upgrade? | 20:45 |
| Logan_ | rodd: No problem. :-) | 20:45 |
| marcusk | countfuzzball: it's great for synchronization but not backups | 20:46 |
| L3top | countfuzzball: to backup an entire partition or hd I recommend clonezilla | 20:46 |
| samster34 | 4 minutes to download the 12.04-alternate-amd64.iso via torrent. neat. | 20:46 |
| ox1de | how do i reinstall the ubuntu live CD from a bad boot? | 20:46 |
| Scott99 | paddysteed, i'm not being a dick. i do all my backups with tar. simple and lets you control what you want backing up | 20:46 |
| ox1de | i'm downloading teh version12 | 20:46 |
| caytchen | hey, i'm using xubuntu 12.04 and after booting and login I just get an empty screen with the wallpaper | 20:46 |
| countfuzzball | L3top: how about dd? or does that require the resulting image size exactly fit the target hdd size? | 20:46 |
| === jsec is now known as sec | ||

| paddysteed | Scott99, but can you honestly say it is the simplest solution for a noob? | 20:47 |

| === sec is now known as Guest28088 | ||
| spartan2276 | the Install screen is just frozen, please help | 20:47 |
| L3top | countfuzzball: dd works, but can very easily blow things up. I strongly recommend clonezilla, which will backup over networks or physical devices, with any number of options | 20:47 |
| Logan_ | softcoder: /etc/apt/sources.list | 20:48 |
| countfuzzball | Ah right, cool! | 20:48 |
| softcoder | thx | 20:48 |
| marcusk | Nice, took just 8 seconds to download ubuntu-12.04-alternate-amd64.iso with wget. | 20:48 |
| Logan_ | softcoder: np | 20:48 |
| L3top | ox1de: You burn the image to a CD or USB drive, and boot to IT. | 20:48 |
| samster34 | so, uh, how do I make a bootable usb flash drive for the alternate iso? the tool recommended only wants isos called desktop or server...should I just rename it? | 20:48 |
| ox1de | how do i boot the CD? bios?? | 20:49 |
| caytchen | samster34: I used unetbootin, worked fine | 20:49 |
| upset | I have tried both alternative i386 isos, written them to a drive with startup disk creator, unetbootin, and dd, and they look fine with md5sum but do not pass their own disk checks. | 20:49 |
| marcusk | samster34: dd if=ubuntu-iso of=/dev/<usb device> bs=1M | 20:49 |
| upset | What can I do? | 20:49 |
| samster34 | marcusk: I'm on windows | 20:49 |
| rodd | "10.04 to 12.04 upgrades don't get turned on until the point release, 12.04.1." does that information proceeds? | 20:49 |
| L3top | ox1de: yes. Typically CD is an earlier boot option than hd unless you have specifically changed it, in which case... obviously that is how you change it back. | 20:50 |
| Bennlucky7 | ox1de: change the 1st startup in bios from hrdsk to cdrom | 20:50 |
| marcusk | samster34: I'm sure there is a port or similiar tool available | 20:50 |
| samster34 | caytchen: that tool doesn't have 12.04 available in the menus :/ | 20:51 |

| ubottu | saimon777: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 20:51 |
| L3top | samster34: is the tool unetbootin? because you can specify an iso, rather than choosing one of the predefined options which will download whatever you specify | 20:51 |
| Logan_ | saimon777: But, yes, odd timing. | 20:51 |
| Bennlucky7 | rodd: ucan upgrade it from iso too | 20:51 |

| mystblade9 | jlsjonas: You seem to be having the same problem as us. Do you have an nVidia video card? | 20:59 |
| saimon777 | then download alternate install iso | 20:59 |
| jlsjonas | jep | 20:59 |
| diakite | ok, I'll still stay on it | 20:59 |
| jlsjonas | no nvidia drivers tough | 20:59 |
| diakite | thanks | 20:59 |
| jlsjonas | though* | 20:59 |
| saimon777 | do a non graphical install | 20:59 |
| alien64 | samster34 but i might be wrong:) | 20:59 |
| saimon777 | start in fallback mode | 20:59 |
| mystblade9 | jlsjonas: Yeah, the nVidia card/drivers (I think it's nouvou) are the culprit. | 21:00 |
| intrader | I am browsing a document on firebox - it appears that the down arrow key does not cause scroll. | 21:00 |
| saimon777 | from root terminal install dat drivers | 21:00 |
| saimon777 | profit | 21:00 |
| samster34 | mystblade9: the weird thing is....on my desktop system it works flawlessly with the same video card | 21:00 |
| jlsjonas | is there a workaroung id mystblade9 ? | 21:00 |
| samster34 | mystblade9: in fact, with a whole bunch of other nvidia cards | 21:00 |
| mystblade9 | samster34: weird o.O | 21:00 |
| jlsjonas | it* | 21:00 |
| jlsjonas | (without doing a clean install) | 21:00 |

| samster34 | mystblade9: unless they ship with ubuntu, no | 21:01 |

| ThePendulum | Is there anyway to tell what workspace I'm on when switching with the compiz cube? | 21:01 |
| alien64 | ive had bad luck with Propietary drivers with ati | 21:01 |

| Logan_ | alien64: Same here. The open source driver works fine for me. | 21:01 |
| alien64 | yup same | 21:02 |
| jlsjonas | can't, not getting grub | 21:02 |
| mystblade9 | samster34: Weird. Maybe it's specific to the 9800GT? | 21:02 |
| samster34 | I also tried an ati card, but then the PC won't even post, despite the card working in two other PCs... | 21:02 |

| Timbo | so I upgraded to 12.04, and now my sound indicator won't let me change volume, and the sound settings dialog doesn't let me change anything | 21:15 |
| vexaxv | Fyodorovna, i found where it was but it doesent say which drive letter | 21:16 |
| Timbo | although ostensibly sound seems to work | 21:16 |
| Fyodorovna | vexaxv, is this a usb that is mounted by fstab> | 21:16 |
| saschakb | endra: yep - that was the whole time within the last 8 weeks the case - no speed. You can use dropbox status on a terminal. | 21:16 |

| smoothhound | If I manage to fix the conflict, could I (ideally) upgrade the system? | 21:18 |
| Bennlucky7 | samster34: try booting without keyboard not connected and then after in ubuntu plug in the keyboard i hope that works | 21:18 |

| Ammar_ | yes I do | 21:20 |
| bobo123 | is there a possibility to switch between apps without pressing enter, in order to change the app (unity)? | 21:21 |
| ejv | samster34: indeed, it means there's a regression somewhere, use mint instead | 21:21 |
| Bennlucky7 | samster34: is there on screen keyboard when u install ubuntu? | 21:21 |
| samster34 | ejv: I can't install mint | 21:21 |
| samster34 | Bennlucky7: it's a text only installer, so no | 21:21 |
| whons | Hi, i'm trying the new ubuntu 12.04... but when i bood from my usb install... the unity bar does not appear at all! | 21:21 |
| ejv | samster34: oh? why not? | 21:21 |
| whons | is this a known bug? | 21:21 |
| Fyodorovna | decksmasher, pull them off the disc and open the windows partition and drag them to ubuntu. Why they are not seen is a long wait really, if everything else is seen in general. | 21:21 |
| ThePendulum | There's "killall", but is there something that immediatly restarts the program as well? | 21:22 |
| Ammar_ | any way to restore my sound back? | 21:22 |
| samster34 | ejv: because of video driver issues. I can do "nomodeset" and boot into shell, start X from there, then proceed with the install, but the install freezes down the line and doesn't complete | 21:22 |
| LtHummus | does ubuntu support burning blu-ray isos? | 21:22 |
| ThePendulum | LtHummus: I don't see why not? If your hardware supports it, obviously | 21:22 |
| LtHummus | ThePendulum: just making sure there's nothing special about it...google seems conflicted | 21:22 |
| Fyodorovna | decksmasher, 10.10 is eol, but you probably know that. | 21:22 |
| ejv | samster34: sounds like 12.04 may simply not be ready | 21:23 |
| samster34 | ejv: 10.04 doesn't work either | 21:23 |
| samster34 | ejv: or debian or gentoo or suse | 21:23 |
| decksmasher | yes i do, but i just really like it. | 21:23 |
| samster34 | ejv: or even the live linux based DBAN tool | 21:23 |
| EvilResistance | samster34, sounds like a problem at your computer, are you sure it freezes and never continues? | 21:23 |
| EvilResistance | there are segments of installing which can take time | 21:23 |
| Bennlucky7 | whons: have u check md5sums of the iso installer? | 21:23 |

| DJDanJazz | :-) | 21:26 |
| ThePendulum | Fyodorovna: I'm not quite sure if that restarts the panel or just reconfigs something | 21:26 |

| Bennlucky7 | whons: its checkin if all the file already downloaded | 21:26 |
| Fyodorovna | ThePendulum, restarts compiz this is unity right? | 21:26 |
| samster34 | buzzkill: the bios has like 5 settings, none of them are that one :p | 21:26 |
| marcusk | ox1de: Depends on your computer, many of them have some form of boot menu when you launch them | 21:26 |
| ThePendulum | Fyodorovna: Touché, forgot about the Unity part | 21:26 |

| thephantom | Can I copy the drive that my current Ubuntu OS is running on? Or do I need to do it of a live cd? | 21:28 |
| wang_ | How do If ix it before I reboot? otherwise I am afraid my system won't boot | 21:28 |
| ejv | thephantom: you can use 'dd' to perform a copy of a partition | 21:30 |
| munkbusiness | Can anyone help me with this I cannot run Opera on Ubuntu 12.04 it could the first time I launched it but after closing it down I am now unable to run it | 21:30 |

| cute_bettong | ubuntu rocks! XD | 21:30 |

| wang_ | the new kernel | 21:31 |
| samster34 | InferiorHumanOrg: it can't fail worse than not installing in the first place. Imma give it a shot... | 21:31 |

| kwehmucdee | +1 for irssi | 21:36 |
| Fyodorovna | ThePendulum, unity, gnome 3, and ubuntu classic have set top panels, you might try xubuntu if you want easier desktop tweaking, any of many others like fluxbox. | 21:36 |

| ds_ | auronandace: yeah, I can try something else... still weird I couldn't install this, but. I just need something really oldschool. | 21:36 |
| ejv | konversation reminds me of xchat | 21:37 |
| Fyodorovna | ox1de, do you need the torent link? | 21:37 |
| ejv | doesn't hold a candle to irssi though | 21:37 |
| ox1de | what torrent? | 21:37 |
| Bennlucky7 | ThePendulum: try search indicator in software center | 21:37 |
| tehowe_ | Hmmmn some guy said #ubuntu is trending on the twitters but not from where I sit... ppl should start hammering it though | 21:37 |
| auronandace | ds_: irssi should suit you, bitchx is no longer developed, thats why it isn't in the repos | 21:37 |
| diverdude | if i do find . -iname "*.sh" i can find all .sh files recursively. But is it possible to do a "except filenames containing *something*" somehow? | 21:37 |
| upset | Bennlucky7: It's the only thing complaining. It says the ./install/netboot/ubuntu-installer/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default md5 checksum is bad, but everything else says it is corrected and I've exhausted most methods of writing and checking. | 21:38 |

| upset | ox1de: I dunno. Use a different program to burn it. | 21:39 |
| ds_ | auronandace: just home/downloads, and I used tab-completion, so... | 21:39 |
| Fyodorovna | ox1de, so you have a cd that errors right? Have you then checked the md5sum, and was it burned as an image? | 21:39 |
| Striking7 | It went perfect with the Black Knight GTK2 theme (which is also really hard to find) | 21:39 |

| samster34_ | marcusk: how do I ttell it to stop asking me for an archive mirror | 21:40 |
| Fyodorovna | ox1de, burn at slowest speed as well, or use a usb flash. | 21:40 |
| auronandace | ds_: well, its a lot better sticking to the repos anyway, installing stuff from source isn't really recommended unless you know what you are doing | 21:40 |
| upset | ox1de: Maybe check the md5 checksum as well | 21:40 |
| xlREDlx | back package any help? http://paste.ubuntu.com/948314/ | 21:40 |

| alien64 | Striking7: ill keep looking for ya , you be in here? | 21:41 |
| upset | Bennlucky7: USB is my method | 21:41 |
| marcusk | samster34_: could be that the standard installer does that, if I remember correct you can at least skip it if you select expert install but now I'm not really sure | 21:41 |
| ejv | md5 is a crypto hash function my friend | 21:41 |
| Striking7 | alien64: Sure thing. You can always PM me too if you'd like | 21:41 |
| ox1de | explain? how do i access md5? | 21:41 |
| Fyodorovna | !md5sum | ox1de | 21:41 |
| upset | Pushy | 21:41 |
| ubottu | ox1de: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 21:41 |
| alien64 | Striking7: will do | 21:42 |
| ox1de | oh isee what u mean | 21:42 |
| Fyodorovna | ox1de, ^^^^^^ | 21:42 |
| ox1de | i'll try burning the iso again | 21:42 |
| auronandace | ds_: if you do insist on installing from source then there is a good link | 21:42 |
| rymate1234 | meh | 21:42 |
| upset | ox1de: Also, tag someone you're talking to | 21:42 |
| Bennlucky7 | upset: can it install ubuntu without check it? | 21:42 |
| Striking7 | alien64: You may enjoy the Black Knight theme, too... I'll upload it somewhere real fast in case you're curious. | 21:42 |
| auronandace | !checkinstall | ds_ | 21:42 |
| ubottu | ds_: 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! | 21:42 |
| rymate1234 | why are the repo's so slooooow | 21:42 |
| samster34_ | marcusk: I can "select the next in the install process"...but none of the options are "just install it already!" | 21:42 |
| upset | Bennlucky7: Yeah, but that sounds like a really bad idea. | 21:42 |
| Timbo | turns out the upgrade screwed up the permissions on my nfs mounted /home | 21:42 |
| ox1de | ok bbiab | 21:42 |
| auronandace | rymate1234: because 12.04 was released today | 21:42 |
| Fyodorovna | rymate1234, guess | 21:43 |
| upset | Bennlucky7: I don't really think I can ignore a bad checksum on something in the ubuntu-installer folder. | 21:43 |
| rymate1234 | meh lol | 21:43 |
| rymate1234 | wait | 21:43 |
| rymate1234 | 8.04 is still supported? | 21:43 |
| Ntemis | i have 10.04.4 64bit, any benefits going to 12.04? | 21:43 |
| Bennlucky7 | upset: but the iso check md5 is same? | 21:43 |
| auronandace | rymate1234: on server but not for long | 21:43 |
| Fyodorovna | rymate1234, the server yes | 21:44 |

When identifying manually, do NOT send the command from a channel's tab, or a typo may give away your password. If that happened, type « /msg NickServ set password <new-password> » in the server tab as soon as possible. | 21:46 |

| chelz | samster34_: also try skipping the "download installer components" part when you get to it | 22:06 |

| InferiorHumanOrg | saimon777: I believe that would work also as long as the mpd user which is "mpd" by default can read the files | 22:07 |
| samster34_ | chelz: I can't skip it. the only steps afte it I can skip to are "launch shell" or "abort the install" | 22:07 |

| semitones_tea | schultza: try checking your software sources | 22:09 |
| === kandrew is now known as kapacity|studyin | ||
| schultza | which ones? | 22:09 |
| semitones_tea | "software sources" | 22:09 |
| saimon777 | what means recursive? | 22:09 |
| schultza | they are all checked, cept the ppa's that are failing the gpg key check | 22:09 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | saimon777: applying to all subfolders / files of the parent dir = recursive | 22:10 |
| pmp6nl | Dang, I just downloaded 12.04 at 4.9 Mega Bytes Per Second... server is doing good | 22:10 |
| semitones_tea | there's a setting that says "alert me about distribution updates when ___" | 22:10 |
| semitones_tea | you have to make sure it doesn't say never | 22:10 |
| schultza | set to LTS only | 22:10 |
| chelz | sun_devil: cdrom stuff won't show up unless you insert a cd | 22:10 |

| ox1de | OK i got the boot menu | 22:10 |
| samster34_ | darn you and you superior ISP | 22:10 |
| ox1de | with install options | 22:10 |
| ox1de | so i'm making progress | 22:10 |
| chelz | samster34_: is this a laptop or desktop? | 22:10 |
| samster34_ | chelz: I'm typing on a laptop, i you are wonering abou my horrible speling | 22:11 |
| pmp6nl | samster34_, it was pretty slick ;) | 22:11 |
| samster34_ | chelz: but I'm installing on a dektop | 22:11 |
| xlREDlx | THANKS jschall it worked :D thank you so much | 22:11 |
| finish06 | Striking7, I was able to put the unity luancher bar on a single monitor... just use CCSM and then go under "ubuntu unity plugin" -> Experimental -> very bottom of the page "launcher monitors" ... change it to primary desktop ... set primary desktop via Nvidia X Server Settings.... | 22:12 |
| xlREDlx | Im book marking that for any future things I bugger up | 22:12 |
| chelz | samster34_: you leave the disk in right? since it might be saying "load installer components from cd" | 22:12 |
| Striking7 | finish06: I'm glad to hear there's a way. Not surprised it's in CCSM, not something installed by default | 22:13 |
| Striking7 | :) | 22:13 |
| dim3dro1 | Could you help me with cyrillic logins (console)? | 22:13 |
| samster34_ | chelz: yes, Im booting from us | 22:13 |

| === Skaag_ is now known as Skaag | ||
| finish06 | Striking7, yep :/ very unfortunate .... but it is all good now!!! Just took me a while of sittign on it, and thinking to myself... HOW did I do that last time lol | 22:13 |
| chelz | samster34_: you used unetbootin to put it on the usb? | 22:13 |
| NightFantom | testing | 22:14 |
| NightFantom | ok | 22:14 |
| Striking7 | finish06: I'm loyal to Ubuntu but that doesn't mean I like where they're going UI-wise for myself. | 22:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Striking7: then use XFCE, or KDE.... | 22:14 |
| samster34_ | chelz:yes | 22:14 |
| Athanasius | The livecd doesn't appear to allow me to add keyboard layouts while in the "Try Ubuntu" mode :< | 22:14 |
| chelz | Striking7: yeah xubuntu is awesome | 22:14 |
| schultza | going from lts to everything helped.. thanks | 22:14 |
| ox1de | got the message: This kernel requires the following features not present on the cpu: pae -- unable to boot-pleas use a kernel appropriate for your cpu. | 22:14 |
| ox1de | got the cd to boot but says that | 22:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Striking7: Unity is only in ONE of the 4 official variants.... | 22:14 |
| ox1de | trying to install now | 22:14 |
| Striking7 | ActionParsnip: both good alternatives I agree. For now I'm sticking with Gnome2 though | 22:14 |
| ox1de | what do i do? | 22:14 |
| finish06 | Striking7, I think it is a good move, however it is just a slow move. It isn't polished as I woudl like | 22:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Striking7: Gnome2 is dead | 22:14 |
| pmp6nl | Whats the best way to seed the 12.04 torrent? | 22:15 |
| finish06 | ActionParsnip, what are the four 'official' variants? | 22:15 |
| schultza | what? "Upgrading to a no longer supported version"... ???? | 22:15 |
| Athanasius | ox1de: Are you using ancient CPUs? :< | 22:15 |
| chelz | samster34_: well could be a bug if the installer thinks you have an internet connection when you don't. i'd verify stuff like ethernet cables are unplugged, there might be some shell thing you can run | 22:15 |
| ActionParsnip | finish06: Ubuntu, Lubuntu, xubuntu, KUbuntu | 22:15 |
| chelz | samster34_: something like ifdown eth0 | 22:15 |
| ox1de | its an older machine i guess | 22:15 |
| finish06 | ActionParsnip, I was under the impression that Ubuntu and Kubuntu were oficial and they recently stated they were done with kubuntu | 22:15 |
| ox1de | still functional though | 22:15 |
| Striking7 | ActionParsnip: that's both the strength and weakness of open source stuff: nothing is ever truly dead | 22:15 |
| schultza | 10.10 ? hang on.. switching back to lts only | 22:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Striking7: true but the Gnome2 forks are not suported here | 22:15 |
| chelz | finish06: the most 'official' is ubuntu. the other distros are given free stuff like hosting and other resources. the 'quitting' of kubuntu was canonical no longer hiring a kubuntu dev | 22:16 |
| saimon777 | InferiorHumanOrg: tried sudo chmod 777 from terminal, command seem successful, no errors but permissions never changed. it's a ntfs drive does it mean something? | 22:16 |
| finish06 | chelz, so they are only 'official' | 22:16 |
| samster34_ | chelz: somethin must have goe wrong. I re-"burned" the flash drive, an d now I dont have haf of the options in the initial meu | 22:16 |
| schultza | kubuntu is being picked up by another financial group | 22:16 |
| Athanasius | kubuntu and the kde project in its entirety needs to die :/ | 22:16 |
| jwrigley | 12.04 is buggy... in the 10 mins I've had it installed, I have already been prompted 3 times to submit 3 different bugs. .... | 22:16 |
| finish06 | chelz, because canonical will host for them... kk thanks | 22:16 |
| ActionParsnip | saimon777 you need to set the access at mount with NTFS | 22:17 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | saimon777: oh yea, you are going to need to edit /etc/fstab then I think | 22:17 |
| Striking7 | I know that, ActionParsnip. And I'm ok with that. I'm not trying to change anyone's mind, just voicing my opinion. | 22:17 |
| chelz | finish06: yeah and link to them | 22:17 |
| trism | ox1de: 12.04 uses the pae kernel by default, I believe the xubuntu isos use the non-pae kernel if you wanted to try that though | 22:17 |
| Achylles | I 've just downloaded Precise pangolin live cd, but when I fire it up it says that I my internet cable is disconnect and do not connect to the internet. I tried to add ip,gw,dns, but the save configuration button is grey out so I am blocked. suggestions? | 22:17 |
| ActionParsnip | jwrigley: its less than 1 day old, what did you expect | 22:17 |
| chelz | samster34_: you might use gparted to wipe partitions on the drive. also could try a burned cd | 22:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Achylles: just get the OS installed, worry about the web later | 22:17 |
| finish06 | chelz, ok. well i guess I will say that is pseudo-official :) part of the reason I do like ubuntu is that it is backed by a billionaire lol | 22:17 |
| sk1special | mmk. chello. how do i fix this Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0". | 22:17 |
| Striking7 | jwrigley: Anything specific we may be able to help with? | 22:18 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | saimon777: /media/sdcard vfat defaults,user something like tha | 22:18 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | saimon777: adjust for ntfs etc | 22:18 |
| ox1de | what is the difference between xubuntu and ubuntu? is there anyway to load another kernel? | 22:18 |
| sun_devil | chelz, Inserted a music cd and did a cd /media....not their. A few months back I tried to install Vitualbox from a cd and did not recognize it then also | 22:18 |
| jwrigley | ActionParsnip: Not complaining, just saying... Though to answer your question: it's a _release_, not an alpha or beta, so I would expect it to not be that buggy... :) | 22:18 |
| Achylles | ActionParsnip, But, what if I install it to my HD and does not detect the network through DHCP? | 22:18 |
| Striking7 | ox1de: The difference between xubuntu and ubuntu is the user interface/desktop environment. | 22:19 |
| Striking7 | They both should be using the same kernel | 22:19 |
| saimon777 | InferiorHumanOrg this rustle my jimmies, i think that change that user "mpd" to my account name then reboot & see what happen | 22:19 |
| Striking7 | There are many ways of using different kernels though | 22:19 |
| Striking7 | What in specific would you like to be different? | 22:19 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | saimon777: idk I think you need to set the user flag in /etc/fstab | 22:19 |
| saimon777 | ok | 22:19 |
| jwrigley | Striking7: sorry, no, was just setting up my favourite IRC-client with my favourite channels :) | 22:19 |
| ActionParsnip | ox1de: ubuntu uses Unity+Gnome+Compiz by default. Xubuntu uses lighter apps, xfce and xfwm4 as the WM | 22:20 |
| saimon777 | itś an usb drive | 22:20 |
| Achylles | ActionParsnip, when I use other live distros they detect the network, but ubuntu live does not :( | 22:20 |
| ox1de | is xubuntu the only option? | 22:20 |
| chelz | sun_devil: you can check the status of stuff like that in the logfiles. /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog | 22:20 |
| sun_devil | Although when I put in a cd, a box came up asking what I wanted to do with it, but command line option does not work | 22:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Achylles: then you have a bug and will need to do a little legwork | 22:20 |
| Striking7 | jwrigley: K. Let me know if you need help troubleshooting any of that stuff or need a sounding board. | 22:20 |
| ActionParsnip | ox1de: or Kubuntu, using kde | 22:20 |
| ActionParsnip | ox1de: or Lubuntu, using LXDE | 22:20 |
| bc`` | InferiorHumanOrg: "cp" doesn't have a -v parameter that I can figure out how to use-- any other suggestions, or do i have the syntax wrong? | 22:20 |
| sun_devil | chelz, what would I look for in a log file for media? | 22:20 |
| Striking7 | I'm still using an 11.04 derivative so I can't help from personal experience, but I'm willing to help with anything I can! | 22:20 |
| samster34_ | chelz: no, Imean something must have gone wrong the first time, setup is runnin now | 22:20 |
| ox1de | is there a way to load ubuntu12? from this screen? | 22:20 |
| ox1de | or do i need a new iso? | 22:21 |
| new_ubuntu | i have install backtrack on a partition for dual boot with win 7. i'm downloading ubunt at the moment...when i try to install it would it reconize the partition that backtrack is installed? my hard disk is 300 gb 100 gb for win7 100 gb for saving staff and 100 for backtrack..so in the 3rd partition will be reconizes as linux system and install on it? | 22:21 |
| chelz | sun_devil: stuff related to 'scd" | 22:21 |
| Achylles | ActionParsnip, It really seam a bug | 22:21 |
| chelz | samster34_: oh, nice. good to hear | 22:21 |
| Striking7 | ox1de: What OS are you running now? | 22:21 |
| sun_devil | chelz, I will give it a try, thanks | 22:21 |

| Athanasius | schultza: Crap, do you? My MBP is on 10.04LTS | 22:26 |

| ox1de | i'm not clear on what kernels are | 22:27 |
| jpic | hi all, what's the command to enable/disable connections ? | 22:27 |
| Striking7 | Ok | 22:27 |
| Striking7 | ox1de: If your computer is a car, the kernel is the software's "engine" | 22:27 |
| schultza | ifconfig [connection] up/down | 22:28 |
| Striking7 | It makes sure all your programs know how to talk to the hardware. | 22:28 |
| new_ubuntu | for simple questions you can always ask google. he knows anything | 22:28 |
| saimon777 | InferiorHumanOrg i commented that "user" line in mpd.conf & now seems working fine | 22:28 |
| Striking7 | PAE is a feature on newerish CPUs that will allow you to access 4gigs+ of ram. | 22:28 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | saimon777: oh ok. thats cool! | 22:28 |
| jpic | schultza: thanks, actually i'm looking for the command to control the network manager from a simple bash script | 22:28 |
| saimon777 | now itś pulse audio the problem | 22:29 |
| jpic | not enabling/disabling interfaces | 22:29 |
| Striking7 | ox1de: If you have a list of kernels available to you in grub, choose the oldest. See if there are some that have -pae at the end of the name and others that don't. | 22:29 |

| Waraudon | I'm assuming that it's not possible to upgrade from 11.04->12.04 (server edition), would the recommended option be to do a fresh install, or to go 11.04->11.10->12.04 ? | 22:33 |
| ActionParsnip | airlynx: what if you boot with it plugged in? | 22:33 |
| dlentz | airlynx, when you get kicked to the terminal, look at dmesg and ~/.xsession-errors | 22:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Waraudon: you cannot go from Natty to Precise in one bound. You will need to do one of the other 2 options. | 22:34 |
| sintrinsic | Awesome. I just upgraded from 11.04 to 12.? and it's now telling me it cant detect my display/input settings, and kicks me to a tty prompt. Any ideas on how to fix? | 22:34 |
| Logan_ | Waraudon: Backing up and then doing a fresh install is always a more recommended option. | 22:34 |
| airlynx | ActionParsnip, it will show the boot splash then kick me to TTY1 | 22:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Waraudon: I'd go for a clean install of Precise, clean OS a intended with 5 years support | 22:34 |
| HaiKaiDo | in 12.04 is it still just unity? I still like Rosey. would it be hard to downgrade? | 22:35 |
| Waraudon | ActionParsnip: I think I might just do a fresh install, it's a home gateway/server box that's also used for file backups. However, the backups are on a separate partition so I don't have to worry about that | 22:35 |
| bastidrazor | I upgraded from 11.10 and it appears to be doing well. | 22:35 |
| ActionParsnip | airlynx: are you connecting it to a USB hub or direct to the system? | 22:35 |
| Striking7 | sintrinsic: what kind of hardware do you have? | 22:35 |
| jpic | when i configured the 3G connection, Ubuntu asked for the pin code. After entering the pin code, checking "Remember the pin code" checkbox, and clicking OK, it works. The problem is that NetworkManager still pops up the dialog for the pin code - even thought it *does* enable the 3G connection properly which means that it used the pin code | 22:35 |

| samster34 | I tried a different keyboard, but this one also doesn't work in the recovery mode / shell boot option....is there any way to boot without the nouveau drivers, but not into the shell? | 22:39 |
| Striking7 | sintrinsic: I feel your pain. ATI cards are hard to get working in Linux. Also, I believe I remember someone saying earlier that the proprietary ATI drivers aren't shipped by default with Ubuntu12. Don't quote me on that. | 22:39 |
| ox1de | OK striking7; i'll load a xubuntu12 iso and see if that will load proper | 22:39 |
| jpic | how to check network manager version ? | 22:39 |
| airlynx | dmesg doesn't show anything when I plug the USB headset in | 22:39 |
| Striking7 | sintrinsic: There is a default driver that you can use just to get your graphical environment up and running but its performance is bad, so just use it to troubleshoot and get the real drivers working | 22:39 |
| Striking7 | Look up the "Framebuffer" driver | 22:40 |
| beandog | NetworkManager --version | 22:40 |
| * jpic is sorry, real noob | 22:40 | |
| Striking7 | ox1de: I hope it works. It looks like it will from the research I did | 22:40 |
| samster34 | striking: how do I get that running? | 22:40 |
| sintrinsic | Striking7: Would you happen to know the package name? Tough to google in console browsers. | 22:40 |
| Striking7 | sintrinsic: I don't, but I'll look! | 22:40 |
| alien64 | vesa | 22:40 |
| sintrinsic | Striking7: you're my hero. | 22:40 |
| jpic | thanks, it reports 0.9.4.0, so that *should* contain the fix that has claimed to be introduced in 0.9.2 | 22:40 |
| * Striking7 bows | 22:40 | |
| samster34 | alien64: how do I change the boot options in grub so that ubuntu will start to the desktop with vesa drivers? if I use nomodeset to get to the shell, my keyboard doesnt work. no matter which keyboard I try. | 22:41 |
| samster34 | and without keyboard, I can't tell it to do anything :/ | 22:42 |

| Striking7 | btw sintrinsic: if you want to do your own research while I'm looking, there's a text-mode browser named lynx | 22:44 |

| alien64 | sintrinsic: change to vesa in xorg.conf is my guess | 22:46 |
| diegoviola | why would you use vesa? | 22:47 |
| diegoviola | simplexi1: what card do you have? | 22:47 |
| Striking7 | sintrinsic: alien64's suggestion is probably a good start. Do you know how to do that? | 22:47 |
| diegoviola | oops | 22:48 |
| diegoviola | sintrinsic: what card do you have? | 22:48 |
| Lint | what should I do to enable gnome-shell in Precise? I installed gnome-shell package but it segfaults | 22:48 |

| Striking7 | diegoviola: he has a radeon 9800 HD | 22:48 |
| marti | ciao | 22:48 |
| diegoviola | Striking7: why not use the radeon driver then? | 22:48 |
| marti | atutti | 22:48 |
| ox1de | btw... the link for xubuntu PC desktop CD says 404 not found | 22:48 |
| sintrinsic | strinking7: afraid not. sry. was in another tty | 22:49 |
| ox1de | so i went with the alternate | 22:49 |
| airlynx | I moved the .xsession-errors file to .xsessions-backup, then plugged in my USB headset, then tried to view the .xsession-errors file again but there was nothing there | 22:49 |
| ox1de | will teh alternate work ok? | 22:49 |

| dagadagadaga | is anyone suffering from very slow installation from usb? | 22:49 |
| Striking7 | diegoviola: most likely the radeon driver works best long term. | 22:49 |
| Striking7 | ox1de: Yes it will. | 22:49 |
| Striking7 | ox1de: the only difference is that the installer is text-mode for alternate. | 22:49 |
| samster34 | help, is there a way to boot ubuntu, so that X will start but it will not use the nouveau driver? | 22:49 |
| diegoviola | Striking7: using the radeon driver is a good idea because it does support KMS (kernel mode setting) which happens to detect the resolution for you automatically so then xorg.conf is not needed anymore. | 22:49 |
| ox1de | text mode? | 22:49 |
| Striking7 | ox1de: the normal liveCD puts you in a graphical environment | 22:50 |
| samster34 | ox1de: my keyboard doesnt work in text mode, so that doesnt help :( | 22:50 |
| ox1de | u sure it will work? | 22:50 |
| progre55 | hi guys. I have an encrypted /home partition, but it doesnt mount automatically on logon. I have to manually mount it from tty before I can login. Any suggestions, please? | 22:50 |
| Striking7 | ox1de: yeah. Not a big deal - it's just not "pretty" when it's in the installer | 22:50 |
| ox1de | isee | 22:50 |
| Striking7 | Yeah, it installs the same thing. | 22:50 |
| Striking7 | It just doesn't look as pretty while it's doing so | 22:51 |
| alien64 | diegoviola: he should use the radeon driver in the repo not the propritery ones | 22:51 |
| marti | !lista | 22:51 |
| diegoviola | sintrinsic: use the radeon driver | 22:51 |
| Striking7 | diegoviola: You're right. | 22:51 |

| samster34 | help, is there a way to boot ubuntu, so that X will start but it will not use the nouveau driver? | 22:51 |
| diegoviola | alien64: sure | 22:51 |
| Striking7 | diegoviola: do you think you could help sintrinsic through that process? It's been a while since I had an ATI card | 22:51 |
| Striking7 | ... I used the proprietary drivers when I did, too. | 22:51 |
| diegoviola | Striking7: sure | 22:51 |
| airlynx | Off to try ActionParsnip's suggestion, setting USB to legacy mode in BIOS, wish me luck | 22:51 |
| Striking7 | That was... 2005 I think :-p | 22:51 |
| diegoviola | sintrinsic: you just need to install xf86-video-ati or xf86-video-radeon | 22:52 |
| diegoviola | sintrinsic: that will hopefully pull the other dependencies | 22:52 |
| diegoviola | like the kernel drivers, etc | 22:52 |
| alien64 | tri ati first") | 22:52 |
| sintrinsic | diegoviola: awesome. trying that now. brb | 22:52 |
| diegoviola | sintrinsic: then you don't need to do anything with the xorg.conf anymore. Actually, xorg.conf is not needed anymore if you have a KMS driver. | 22:53 |
| Striking7 | samster34: why doesn't your keyboard work in text mode? | 22:53 |
| Striking7 | Is it a usb keyboard? | 22:53 |
| sarnold | The most recent Firefox update to 12.0+build1-0ubuntu0.11.04.1 broke the ^W, ^U, keybindings in text edit widgets. Does anyone know what to edit to bring back their old behavior (kill word, kill line)? | 22:53 |

| Riddell | sw0rdfish: unity | 22:53 |
| Arthur_D | unity | 22:53 |
| sw0rdfish | and 12.10? | 22:53 |
| sw0rdfish | also unity? | 22:53 |
| Arthur_D | probably the same | 22:54 |
| Riddell | 12.10 doesn't exist yet | 22:54 |
| marti | ciao | 22:54 |
| sw0rdfish | Arthur_D, don't ya have 12.10 | 22:54 |

| sw0rdfish | oh rlly Riddell. | 22:54 |
| Striking7 | sw0rdfish: Most likely. Unity is still pretty young - it'll probably be much better when October rolls around than it is now (it's not terrible now, but not perfect) | 22:54 |
| samster34 | Striking7: I don't know why. It says "unable to enumerate USB device on port 8" | 22:54 |
| Arthur_D | sw0rdfish: 12.04 is the latest version | 22:54 |
| sk1special | is there a way to reset/reinstall gnome-settings-daemon? | 22:54 |
| sw0rdfish | I dunno Riddell man I was with 10.10 till before yesterday man... but updates stopped so I was like "BuMMeR!" | 22:54 |
| Striking7 | samster34: Sounds like something a bios setting can fix | 22:54 |
| samster34 | Striking7: I've tried different keyboards, different ports, there are no other USB devices... | 22:54 |
| Striking7 | samster34: Look through your bios for a setting called "emulate legacy usb keyboard" | 22:55 |
| samster34 | Striking7: the only bios setting that relates is "Support keyboard and mouse ONLY", does that sound like a wordy way to describe the legacy support setting? | 22:55 |
| Striking7 | samster34: Doesn't sound like it to me :( | 22:55 |
| ActionParsnip | Striking7: young, it's been around since Natty... | 22:56 |
| === wizonesolutions_ is now known as wizonesolutions | ||
| Arthur_D | for software as complex as a desktop environment, that's pretty young | 22:57 |
| samster34 | Striking7: well, I have no other settings relating to usb or keyboards | 22:57 |
| sw0rdfish | lol why did the OS freak out when I typed unity into a terminal. | 22:57 |
| Striking7 | ActionParsnip: It has. And that is very young compared to Gnome, KDE, and even things like Enlightenment. | 22:57 |
| samster34 | except choosing 1.1+2.0 or 1.1 | 22:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Arthur_D: unity isn't a DE | 22:57 |
| airlynx | changing BIOS settings had no effect, my system still crashes when I plug in my USB headset, nothing in dmesg, nothing in .xsession-errors, does anybody else have any ideas as to why it would do this? | 22:57 |
| gr4mm4r | anyone not able to restore skype in 12.04 after its minimized? | 22:57 |
| alien64 | young and sucky :) | 22:57 |
| Striking7 | samster34: shoot. Ok. There's probably a safe graphics mode option for Ubuntu's boot. | 22:58 |
| Striking7 | I'll look around real quick. | 22:58 |
| samster34 | Striking7: is there a way to boot into X without nouveau drivers, instead of booting to textmode? | 22:58 |
| Arthur_D | ActionParsnip: still, it requires heavy integration with Gnome and other software, so it does take a while for things to settle | 22:58 |
| samster34 | Striking7: ok, how do I find this option :P | 22:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Arthur_D: i guess, but it's not as young as HUD etc | 22:58 |
| Arthur_D | ofc | 22:58 |
| Striking7 | samster34: I'm looking that up right now. | 22:59 |
| samster34 | "usb 1-8: device not accepting addres 2, error -110" | 22:59 |

| samster34 | alien64: ? | 23:01 |
| sarnold | sw0rdfish: probably "sudo killall X" would do the job. | 23:01 |
| Striking7 | Huh. I've seen a similar error a few times, but that was on some custom hardware that had really low maximum current on usb powered devices. | 23:01 |

| SteveBell | hi all. maybe stupid question, but what keys are which when I'm on a mac, virtual box and then in ubuntu? | 23:02 |
| sarnold | sw0rdfish: it'll kill your X server and that ought to kill all your X clients as a result; i _think_ tty7 ought to restart the display manager and allow you to log in again | 23:02 |
| SteveBell | firefox shortcut for add-ons is supposed to be alt + ctrl + a | 23:03 |
| SteveBell | but nothing happens. | 23:03 |

| alien64 | samster34: most bios have a place that lets the bios can choose irq settings if its on turn it off | 23:03 |

| samster34 | Striking7: how? | 23:09 |
| monotoko | liberal, I could but the hardware support isn't so good for a video call... I just don't trust a chinese company in a communist state with root access to my machine... | 23:09 |
| alien64 | samster34: how about pastbin lsusb | 23:09 |
| Striking7 | samster34: to blacklist the drivers, edit "/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf" | 23:10 |

| sarnold | monotoko: AppArmor profile the stupid thing :) | 23:10 |
| monotoko | liberal, from what I've heard... it wants root access every time it's run | 23:10 |
| samster34 | alien64: lsusb? what is that? | 23:10 |
| Striking7 | and add a line at the end saying just "nouveau" | 23:10 |
| soulnafein | wtf is Nouveau driver? | 23:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Striking7: or run: echo "blacklist nouveau" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf > /dev/null | 23:10 |
| samster34 | foss nvidia driver | 23:10 |
| monotoko | sarnold, ahhh good plan! Never thought of that :) | 23:10 |
| ActionParsnip | soulnafein: open source nvidia driver | 23:10 |
| Striking7 | samster34: lsusb is a command that tells you about the usb devices in your system. | 23:10 |
| sinichiro | halakar: sure. I'm no expert though | 23:11 |
| Striking7 | ActionParsnip has good advice there, samster34 | 23:11 |
| halakar | well, if you've been using it for more than one day you might be helpful | 23:11 |
| samster34 | Striking7: alien64: I CAN'T TYPE ANYTHING in text mode. I can't run any commands. I can't boot into desktop because of video drivers | 23:11 |
| sinichiro | halakar: a bit more yeah .) | 23:11 |
| Striking7 | samster34: I know that :) | 23:11 |
| Striking7 | samster34: but you said you could hook the drive up in another computer | 23:11 |
| samster34 | yeah, more directed at alien64 :) | 23:11 |
| alien64 | samster34: not trying to be mean here but google some of this yourself not doing what is asked of you and asking another question will get you no where fast | 23:12 |
| Striking7 | samster34: So you could potentially do it from the other computer, right? | 23:12 |
| samster34 | yea...but how are the USB devices on another computer going to help | 23:12 |
| soulnafein | ActionParsnip, are they any good or they are good only for the warm fuzzy feeling that open source give? | 23:12 |
| halakar | sinichiro, my question is how to mount another device (i.e /dev/sdb1) to a folder under my home directory, | 23:12 |

| bc`` | sarnold: I have no idea. each time i try to format, i choose "t", then "83" then "w", and when it goes to write, it craps out like that | 23:45 |
| pndemc_ | krababbel, wait, like this? | 23:45 |
| pndemc_ | that makes it red for you? | 23:45 |
| tamit | exit | 23:46 |
| krababbel | pndemc_: yes | 23:46 |
| polardude1983 | I am having trouble finding duplicate sources that the sudo apt-get update is giving me | 23:46 |
| pndemc_ | krababbel, ohh, cool >_< | 23:46 |
| krababbel | pndemc_: depends on your irc client config though :) | 23:46 |
| wylde | pndemc_: for some it even makes noise! :) | 23:46 |
| Narc | Hello everyone, I'm using Precise on an Asus K53SD laptop and the brightness settings are forgotten with each reboot. Any idea on how to make them "stick" ? Thanks | 23:46 |
| Chaser | bc``, the message that you see is normal AFAIK | 23:46 |
| sarnold | bc``: are you sure it _crapped out_? The w key is supposed to write and quit. Does fdisk -l /dev/whatever show the changes you made? | 23:47 |
| zykotick9 | bc``: that looks like a sucessful fdisk outcome, to create a partition. that's not the same as formatting! that comes next. | 23:47 |
| pndemc_ | krababbel, wylde, im on xchat, I'll edit mine so it makes noise lol | 23:47 |

| bc`` | it says: Partition number (1-4, default 2): ^Cmedia@xbmc:~$ fdisk -l /dev/sdc | 23:48 |
| bc`` | Cannot open /dev/sdc | 23:48 |
| zykotick9 | bc``: just try "sudo fdisk -l" to list all paritions | 23:48 |
| JoseeAntonioR | I think ubiquity got stuck while restoring previously installed packges. | 23:48 |
| sarnold | bc``: you ran fdisk -l as a normal user, which will not have permission to list the partition on block devices; use sudo fdisk -l | 23:49 |
| bc`` | it is showing there in fdisk -l | 23:49 |
| === quetzal is now known as lolgan | ||
| zykotick9 | bc``: so format it now. | 23:49 |
| bc`` | sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdc ? | 23:50 |
| zykotick9 | bc``: that's partitioning AGAIN. what format do you want it ext or fat/ntfs? | 23:50 |
| kfizz | Just upgraded to 12.04. Getting black screen. F7 terminal shows "checking battery state" as last entry. Sudo X-configure errors because created screens doesn't match number of detected devices. Any ideas? | 23:50 |
| Guest47545 | does anyone know how I can recover ubuntu? I was in the process of upgrading it when it froze and now ubuntu won't boot at all. | 23:51 |
| === xezekal is now known as SolarAquarion | ||
| psy_ | привет | 23:51 |
| bc`` | oops sorry | 23:51 |
| wylde | Guest47545: how recent are your backups? heh. | 23:51 |
| bc`` | ok.. does this make sense, then? sudo mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sdc | 23:51 |
| Guest47545 | no idea | 23:52 |
| zykotick9 | bc``: almost /dev/sdc1 (assuming 1 partiton) | 23:52 |
| bc`` | ah yes | 23:52 |
| bc`` | ty | 23:52 |
| sokak | hi dudes, silly question - i messed up with getlibs trying to revive dofus sound on a 64 bit install, i guess i've installed a bunch of crap... How do i remove the 32 bits libraries installed by getlibs? :3 | 23:52 |

| psy_ | кто знает,как толком вов звпустить? | 23:52 |
| wylde | Guest26174: does no idea mean you don't keep backups of your data outside your Ubuntu install? | 23:52 |
| wylde | !ru | psy_ | 23:53 |
| ubottu | psy_: Пожалуйста наберите /join #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке. | Pozhalujsta naberite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke. | 23:53 |
| sacarlson | Guest47545: depending on if you installed a fresh copy of 12.04 to a fresh unused partition or if you tried to upgrade a system on it's original partition | 23:53 |
| pndemc_ | for setting up a web-server, what would people suggest, debian, ubuntu-se, or something else? | 23:53 |
| ThePendulum | I'm either drunk or I hit my head badly, but I somehow had no issue reading those Russian sentences. | 23:53 |
| Guest47545 | the latter | 23:53 |
| wylde | pndemc_: I run mine on Ubuntu server. But it's just a hobby site really, very little traffic. | 23:53 |
| pmp6nl | Hello, if I have a separate home partition can I install 12.04 over 11.10 and it will keep all settings, etc? | 23:54 |
| sacarlson | Guest47545: then my guess is you will have to reinstall as fresh from a live boot cd of usb flash | 23:54 |
| pndemc_ | my server will be handeling about 20GB transfer a day, | 23:54 |
| Guest47545 | thats what i was afraid of. so i'll lose all my data | 23:54 |
| sacarlson | Guest47545: if you had anything of value on the disk you might want to try to recover it | 23:54 |
| Guest47545 | how do i recover it? | 23:54 |
| zykotick9 | pmp6nl: depending what you are installing over, some of those home directory setting could potentially cause issues... just something to watch out for. | 23:54 |
| sokak | Guest26174, just 7zip it on an external hdd. | 23:55 |
| === Guest26174 is now known as andygee | ||
| wylde | Guest47545: Best answer I have for you is to use a live cd to backup your data and expect to have to reinstall, if someone would care to tell me I'm wrong please do, this is one of those times I like being wrong :) | 23:55 |
| pndemc_ | wylde, lamp, and tf2 game servers. would ubuntu still be a good choice? | 23:55 |
| sokak | good point zykotick9, better just backup personal data | 23:55 |
| sacarlson | Guest47545: boot a live cd or usb flash, try to mount the /home partition and copy the valued data to usb flash or other media | 23:55 |
| pmp6nl | zykotick9, Ok. I am mainly wanting installed program settings | 23:55 |
| Guest47545 | ok thanks sacarlson | 23:56 |
| dniMretsaM | still need some help configuring X11 | 23:56 |
| zykotick9 | pmp6nl: just test stuff against a different user account if you run into issues. | 23:56 |
| pmp6nl | zykotick9, ok thanks | 23:56 |
| wylde | pndemc_: my "home" server (just an OLD pc) is currently serving as an LTSP server for my thin client inj the garage, a backup server for all the machines on the network as well as a media server for streaming movies and music on the lan...so I guess so? | 23:57 |
| kfizz | (kfizz) Just upgraded to 12.04. Getting black screen. F7 terminal shows "checking battery state" as last entry. Sudo X-configure errors because created screens doesn't match number of detected devices. Any ideas? | 23:58 |
| sokak | no one knows how to undo getlibs installed libraries? o well, time to take the plunge and jump from maverick to pangolin | 23:58 |
| wylde | pndemc_: ..err on top of my home hobby LAMP server... :) | 23:58 |
| pengw | hi | 23:58 |
| pengw | who know how to upgrade a particularly packet for example gummi | 23:59 |
| zykotick9 | sokak: maverick would require multiple upgrades would it not? | 23:59 |
| pndemc_ | wylde, do you use a GUI, or command-line only? | 23:59 |
| dniMretsaM | kfizz: I have a similar problem. same error, but I'm doing an install from a minimal CD | 23:59 |
| sokak | zykotick9, i was just too lazy to update - also 80k adsl here - i guess this getlibs tragedy is a good input to take the plunge ^^ | 23:59 |
| pmp6nl | zykotick9, What happens with PPAs if I go this route? | 23:59 |
| wylde | pndemc_: the machine itself is headless. It does have an xserver installed but that's only for serving the thin client in the garage. | 23:59 |
| zykotick9 | sokak: getlibs does have an uninstall | 23:59 |
