[00:09] Hey guys. Did an upgrade to precise from lucid. After the upgrade my GDM login manager was replace with unity-greeter. Unity-greeter does not list the user I commonly use. It lists "Guest" and "Samba User", but not my user "clint". Ideas? [00:09] hmm, grabbed a brand new iso, still getting initramfs unable to find a medium containing a live file system [00:09] not using USB 3.0 [00:10] YBinnenweg_: Can you ping 8.8.8.8 from your own Wireless network?

I'm following the steps given at brother.com and the first one is to issue the "sudo aa-complain cupsd" command, but when I do I get"sudo: aa-complain: command not found" What am I suposed to do? TIA! [00:20] I had two hard drives, removed the secondary one which sent me on the grub recovery issue. [00:21] ApocGoD: is it an old PATA system? [00:21] nmittal_, should run automatically but you could put that in startup applications as a command and name it what you want. The cube etc should run if setup in the auto start or you command generally run without the ccp [00:21] YBinnenweg: Yes. Can you try "ping 192.168.178.1"? [00:21] s/you/tour [00:21] Nope [00:21] your [00:21] Doesn't work [00:22] I had a primary and secondary drive with Ubuntu installed on the primary. [00:22] Fyodorovna, thanks.. let me try that [00:22] ApocGoD: but are they SATA or PATA? [00:22] Removed the secondary which caused the grub error, so I formatted and installed 12.04 [00:22] SATA [00:22] ok [00:22] Now im stuck at the pool screen [00:22] ApocGoD: Do you currently have more than one hard drive? [00:23] Greetings Channel, is there anyone who might be able to help me figure out why a certain theme will not work on my system? [00:23] Jordan_U: look up [00:23] nmittal_, no problem. [00:23] There is only a single drive installed now. [00:23] ApocGoD: If you look through your BIOS menus does the BIOS list this drive? [00:23] ApocGoD: i can understand it going to rescue before, but after a reinstall with only the one in that's plain odd [00:24] It lists the single drive, a 440gb SATA [00:24] !bootinfo | ApocGoD [00:24] ApocGoD: Boot info script is a usefull script for diagnosing boot problems.

[00:25] Iron_, a full install? [00:25] Jordan_U no I can't ping to 192.168.178.1 [00:26] Jordan_U: well, it does not detect the prop wlan drivers and as I plug in the ethernet cable, it gets the IP and all, but does not navigate to nor ping any host [00:26] YBinnenweg: Can you ping 127.0.0.1? [00:26] Fyodorovna: yes [00:26] Darren, yes I can [00:26] Iron_: Have you tried the Additional Drivers utility? [00:26] How am I supposed to run the script if I can't get the computer to turn on? [00:27] darren: YBinnenweg: That's bizarre, given that according to the ifconfig output that's on a different network. [00:27] Well, I tryied to install on the notebook itself, but the installer cracks when reading the partitions [00:27] ApocGoD_: whats the issue with your system turning on? sorry just got here [00:28] gaelfx== WPA2 personal is the answer I hope you want... [00:28] ApocGoD_, on a live cd [00:28] good evening [00:28] 127.0.0.1 is a loopback address.

[00:29] Demnogonis #java [00:29] Under networksettings it gets an ip adres and DNS server though =/ [00:30] ApocGoD_, the script name has changed so the links here a good but the command is incorrect. download the script extract it to your desktop and run this command and pastebin the results text http://sourceforge.net/projects/bootinfoscript/ sudo bash ~/Desktop/bootinfoscript [00:30] invitation required :( [00:30] Demnogonis i just entered without invitation [00:30] Ok, thankis [00:30] hm... [00:30] Jordan_U: yes, it does not recognize any additional drivers [00:30] ooh, UDS is in oakland [00:30] i might go just for fun [00:31] Jordan_U: it's tricky [00:31] For some readon my $PATH doesn't contain /sbin/, /usr/sbin/, /usr/local/sbin/ etc. I know I can add them back in .profile, but why are they not there to begin with? === VirtualBlackness is now known as L3top [00:31] Iron_: That has nothing to do with your having initially installed Ubuntu in a VM. That just means that the drivers aren't available :( [00:31] ApocGoD_: change your kernel? [00:32] Jordan_U: it works flawlessly on the livecd [00:32] celthunder: I have no idea how to do that. [00:32] !sad [00:32] Jordan_U: how did you add the user? [00:32] Jordan_U: what shell are you using? [00:33] celthunder: It's the user which was created during install, many releases ago. bash. [00:33] hey, can someone tell me if its possible to use unity and smth other? or unity allow to have 2nd bar (bottom gnome like) and i'd like it to work like this: i have few apps that are usially a single instance or not more than 3 - these could be started and be visible on unity bar (by default all) - but i'd like to have few apps that should be visible on that gnome-like panel (i coulkd specify [00:33] which ones) - these should be visible only on that gnome panel - not unity - why? i have alot instances running of these tools [00:33] Jordan_U: no idea then...bash and useradd usually makes a reasonable path...i use zsh so could be wrong though [00:33] !notunity | xzhe [00:33] xzhe: 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 [00:33] anyone know if it would be appropriate to attend UDS as someone who isn't involved in developing ubuntu? e.g. just a user :P [00:34] Y'alls [00:34] im asking about ubuntu 12.04 [00:34] Hi, I am sick of the Nvidia 295.xx drivers with Ubuntu 12.04, as it keeps logging me out to login screen (getting segfault and xorg crash) . I would like to downgrade the nvidia driver to 290.xx . any idea how I can do that? [00:34] xzhe try gnome-panel [00:34] Argh, I have a problem with unity performance, If I don't change workspaces for a few seconds, the unity launcher lags, and so does other window animation. Using the 295.40 nVidia driver. [00:35] Anyone run 12.04 on a laptop with dual batteries? [00:35] jk4287: deactivate the driver, then uninstall the package, then look for the 290 driver in the repos or from NVidia's website [00:35] xzhe: the same thing applies to 12.04 [00:35] cyphase, here is a link that might help. http://uds.ubuntu.com/ [00:35] jk4287: uninstall the modules and go to nvidia.com? [00:35] Fyodorovna, i know [00:36] cyphase: Yeah, it would be. [00:36] Guys, thank you for your time, I will get the tools to get rid of the faulty HDD and then I will install it on the notebook itself, cause all I do has no effect on the issue [00:36] celthunder, yeah. i did try to download the driver from nvidia. but, i have problem to run the driver file. something to do with the dkms i think [00:36] xzhe: ubottu only still says 11.10 because 12.04 just came out [00:36] celthunder, is the install straight forward? [00:37] why the hell does Java 7 not have OpenGL ? [00:37] gaelfx: oke, just wonder if unity-people did what alot ppl wanted for so long - looks like not... [00:37] aberon: because Oracle hates anything with the word open in it [00:37] aberon maybe the people in #java can tell [00:37] cyphase, you hit the registration button and get to the actual doc needed in launchpad? [00:37] @celthunder Can you tell me how [00:37] hello evry1. ON a fresh 12.04 install; I'm trying to install the brother mfc-490cw drivers following the steps given at brother.com and the first one is to issue the "sudo aa-complain cupsd" command, but when I do I get"sudo: aa-complain: command not found", same result with the aptitude command. How can I fix this? [00:37] xzhe: it's still a work in progress, but it's getting a lot better all the time [00:38] gaelfx: openoffice is made by oracle now, right? [00:38] gaelfx, lmao [00:38] Weaponized: no, they gave it to Apache foundation [00:38] Weaponized, I believe it was sold to Apache. [00:38] My Ubuntu 12.04 live USB is asking me for a username and password to login [00:38] thephantom try ubuntu and no password [00:39] or admin for username and password as password. Usually works on all computers [00:39] Anyone go between winders and ubuntu a lot? [00:40] gaelfx: yeah maybe in progress work - but how long to wait... im still on 10.10 - i want to upgrade - but how? - i have 18 gnome terminals right now - each have 10~ tabs (sshs) - i need to see things - in unity im dead [00:40] varactor: I have a win7 vm that I RARELY login to.. found that windows is just not necessary.. [00:40] wtf [00:40] #java is invite only [00:40] Vbasic Bilgisi [00:40] someone tell me why it is invite only [00:40] aberon: because it redirect to ##java? [00:40] dustinspringman, yeah, i use windows at work, and I've recently came over to ubuntu from opensuse [00:41] aberon: they should use that fact in trial as proof that it ain't open [00:41] an you have redirects disabled or are already in ##java [00:41] wut [00:41] Can someone help me figure out how to get past the verifying DMI error after installing 12.04? [00:41] But even though ubuntu is at the same resolution as the windows install, it just seems like I have less space [00:41] aberon, you need to be registered with freenode [00:41] hi there. does anybody know how i can fix a broken ntfs from linux itself? i was changing the size of the partition when X-Server crashed. it was like 20 minutes before the process was finished :'( [00:41] how do I increase the size of my current (mounted) partition? [00:41] Fyodorovna, ah. [00:41] xzhe: have you tried 12.04 yet? [00:41] Fyodorovna, why the hell why [00:41] xzhe: I thought you should be able to do that [00:41] mk backup and use gparted [00:42] So many people. ._. [00:42] mk you cannot or should not resize a mounted partition [00:42] aberon, the channel operators have that choice I guess.

Registration help available by typing /join #freenode [00:42] MonkeyDust: gparted doesn't allow resizing mounted [00:42] gaelfx: via fallback mode lol - looks like still no way to upgrade for me, anyway thanks for your time [00:42] testtesttest [00:42] how do I span an new process from the terminal so I can continue using that terminal? [00:42] Is it me, or does ubuntu have problems with atheros cards [00:42] :/ [00:42] mk: is there anything that does allow resizing mounted drives? [00:42] mk idd, i just corrected myself, guess it's not even possible [00:43] Neither, ubuntu and no password, nor, admin and password, worked [00:43] never!! [00:43] walterwoj: command & disown [00:43] gaelfx: I wouldn't know [00:43] xzhe, youre updrading lts to lts? [00:43] bastidrazor: thanks [00:43] gaelfx: no, can do it unmounted only [00:43] xzhe: I have tabs in my terminal [00:43] gaelfx: i will think maybe about a tint2? smth like that - it is a pannel - but it wont work like ive wanted [00:43] DasEi: I know, I was trying to make a point indirectly, which was stupid I realize now [00:43] I don't have enough space on my present partition, and need to increase it. Unfortunately, the only way to increase resides on my mounted partition === ztag100 is now known as ztag100_ [00:44] gaelfx: i dont ask for tabs in terminal - i want to see 18 terminals - each gnome terminal as own icon not just one gnometerminal icon and after click a tree of 18 of em [00:44] use a livecd [00:44] Did I miss an answer to 12.04 not going online; PCLinuxOS just needed net name & net pw. Any thoughts where I went wrong? [00:44] mk why not boot from a live cd or usb an d use gparted from there? [00:44] mk, use a live cd and gparted. [00:44] gaelfx: systempartis are usually done from a live (usb,disc) [00:44] mk: my point was that there is no tool to resize mounted partitions because that's really dangerous [00:44] varactor: 10.10 is not an lts -- anyway im still thinking about upgrading or not [00:44] varactor: is that the easiest way to do it? I was hoping for something simpler, like a tool that I'd have to use, and then reboot, and wait [00:44] xzhe: ah, gotcha, you want a separate icon for each instance [00:45] yes, exactly [00:45] gaelfx: right. I don't want to do that. [00:45] Had to restart to make my wireless card work again. === ztag100_ is now known as zmallah [00:45] er, It was slow, now it isnt === zmallah is now known as ztag100 [00:45] mk, i'd be easiest and safest to just use a live cd [00:45] it'd [00:46] what are my hopes for fixing an interupted partition resize anyways? [00:46] varactor: why you asked? are there some issues with upgrading not 1 by 1? but from like 10.10 to 12.04? [00:46] bugs_bugger: some, testdisk might be of interest [00:46] bugs_bugger: depends where it got interrupted, but generally, not good [00:46] bugs_bugger: your backup [00:46] !testdisk | bugs_bugger [00:46] that was my backup.... [00:47] varactor: ok - so I take it there's no such tool. I take it that a 7.1 boot disk will work fine? Will it mess up my boot? [00:47] That depends on how much data you want to save from that partition bugs_bugger. [00:47] bugs_bugger: oh........... [00:47] bugs_bugger: then use your normal data and recreate a backup of it [00:47] !info testdisk | bugs_bugger [00:47] bugs_bugger: testdisk (source: testdisk): Partition scanner and disk recovery tool.

OTOH, I just can't see why X crashed [00:49] au [00:49] Gnea: might be cinnamon [00:49] Gnea: lotsa people have had trouble with x crashing [00:49] enis/test: if you want to do testing, find a blank channel [00:49] xserver is ancient and there is a movement to replace it, but change takes time [00:50] jiohdi: there is a movement to kick it out - google: wayland [00:50] lol [00:50] xzhe, too much inertia to overcome for a quick replacement [00:50] gaelfx: really? I typically don't have a problem as long as there isn't a lack of space left on the device [00:50] stallman would be pissed [00:50] testtesttest [00:50] I can get Ubuntu 12.04 to start via live cd, but when installed it hangs at the Verifying DMI pool screen.

[00:51] test [00:51] enis: use a blank channel [00:51] test [00:51] what are all those test spammers about? [00:51] it's the same guy, probably testing a bot or something [00:51] jiohdi: it is possible, first it will be like xorg under wayland but it is still nice...

[00:52] jiohdi: like....GNOME 3 [00:52] I use lxde :) [00:52] ApocGoD: you probably need to reinstall grub [00:53] * Gnea uses E17 [00:53] jiohdi: it didnt came to the 12.04 cuz its lts - lts need to be stable - wait until next or 2 ubuntu releases [00:53] my ubuntu fails to load unity after login... what can I do?

[00:54] vitor-br: okay, make sure that unity is selected... if not, try a different session.... does that load?

[01:13] darren: how do u install this ia32-libs [01:14] Infinite8, PAE is just as good unless youll need apps to use over 2gb of memory [01:14] MonkeyDust: maybe i shouldnt advertise the shell of ubuntus rival lm here anyway ;) [01:14] i always use 64bit os on any 64bit hardware i got. - not seen a need to limit myself to 32bit these days [01:14] i have seen benchmarks showing pae being slower then a 64bit install. but that was last year. it may be better now. [01:14] varactor: why is that? The over 2gb app assign [01:15] Infinite8, on a terminal run "sudo apt-get install ia32-libs" [01:15] Infinite8: in ubuntu: open a terminal, and type sudo apt-get install ia32-libs [01:15] without the quotes [01:15] Would I have to escape a slash with this command? .//home/user/binary ?

[01:19] but most of the 64bit apps are just recompiled 32 bit ones [01:19] gaelfx, what for? if after the suggestion on ia32... i just got in the middle between Infinite8 and darren [01:19] abs: if you want to edit an svg or any vector, inkscape might be the choice for you [01:20] zen_monkey: I know, I was just saying that because it's simpler that ia32libs, it's a meta-package that makes sure anything needed for multiarch is there [01:20] Though if I had less RAM, I'd use 32bit. [01:20] gaelfx: what's simpler then the ia32 [01:20] Because I can [01:20] vexaxv: merely, thread for #ubuntu-offtopic rather [01:21] gaelfx, i'll take that bit of knowledge with me, although the ones on the topic were they ;) [01:21] Infinite8: apt-get install multiarch-support, since it makes sure all the necessary libs and whatnot are there [01:21] gaelfx: plus the ia32 u mentioned? [01:21] zen_monkey: haha, yeah, sorry about that, I wasn't sure who exactly was talking before [01:21] Some computations are faster on 64bits, also there was a performance test of nvidia drivers in Windows7 and 64bit was a bit faster there too. [01:21] gaelfx, no prob [01:22] Infinite8: multiarch-support is a meta package, it will install the ia32libs and whatever else is needed and keep it all up to date [01:22] i just installed 12.04 and the unity sidebar doesn't work, only the dash home button works, the other buttons don't launch the associated program [01:22] hey, I got a question.

[01:24] And as I'm a ubuntu user I thought it would by my mistake. [01:25] darren: no idea, I had performance issues in Opengl games, and gnome-shell doesn't have that problem. [01:25] nearing the end of our test [01:25] Fyodorovna: in the dash apps launch fine, its just in the sidebar it doesn't work [01:25] Infinite8: I run 64-bit on my mainbox, never had a problem with any apps, so don't worry too much [01:25] nightrid3r, I had a problem of missing apps that a reset of unity fixed, try alt-f2 and run unity --reset and also try the same using replace as well. [01:25] I'm getting three hours more battery life with 12.04 over win7 [01:25] a lot of people don't realize ubuntu has its roots in debian so they tend to overreact TobsCore, no harm done [01:25] Fyodorovna: ok i'll try [01:26] Hi all. Just got a second hand computer, with an ATI Radeon HD series graphics card, and dual monitors. At first, with the free drivers, ubuntu could see both monitors, but would only mirror them (settings->displays->[uncheck the mirror option] did nothing). Installed fglrx, and amdcccle saw both monitors and enabled them as dual monitors. But now the background on the right on is all white, and the display settings in ubuntu only see [01:26] one monitor [01:26] anyone else had this problem before?

[01:27] it's not quite that simple, he needs to adjust his local firewall and/or router to open port 22, or whatever port he wants sshd to listen on [01:28] Infinite8: you could search ubuntu packages to see if the stuff you need works too. [01:28] Fyodorovna: unity --reset worked, thanks allot === OviOne is now known as SambaK [01:28] nightrid3r, cool, no problem .:) [01:28] ejv: as I said, if he has firewall enabled.

The only issue now is that there are two Unity "launcher bars" (or whatever its caled, with Dashhome at the top) - and I only want the one that's on the far left. it also seems to catch my mouse like a sticky trap, because I have to move the mouse the equivelent of [01:44] about 1000 pixels before it goes from right to left. [01:45] right to left monitors* (or vica versa) [01:45] joder son el colmo como no me pueden ayudar [01:45] !es [01:45] En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés.

I am trying to send id_rsa.pub [02:19] assume no one has experience with pptp vpn connections? :( [02:19] pmp6nl, what is the command you are running [02:19] AVP: or you can right click on the file and select properties [02:19] I need someone from a support personnel to fix the gnome-shell in my system, it segfaults [02:20] what are you talk program i am using or OS?

[02:21] jdhfr: this channel is made up of 99.9% users/volunteers. Ok, or what violinappren said works too :) [02:21] so canonical does crap software to sell support? [02:21] AVP: if you can see the files in a window, try right-clicking on the file and look for a 'properties' option [02:22] pmp6nl, your command doesn't specify what path to put the file in user@host:/path/where/the/file/should/be/copied/to [02:22] jdhfr: help make it better or opt to use something else : ) === guest-IGp2jz is now known as ClintZ [02:22] peridot: i see [02:22] jdhfr keep your language pls [02:22] jdhfr: not really, but some patience, own research and following instructions makes it work [02:22] Hey guys? [02:22] I can use gnome-shell both in opensuse and fedora just fine [02:22] Quick question. [02:22] help! for whatever reason, after the 12.04 upgrade, my root fs partition is stuffed full! I cant uninstall or do anything. How can I clear up space on the / partition? [02:22] jdhfr: then use them :) [02:23] it is only ubuntu where it appears to be intentionally broken [02:23] !details | OhGodWhy [02:23] OhGodWhy: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [02:23] violinappren: did but [02:23] After an release upgrade GDM was replaced with unity-greeter (GDM seems to be broken now) and unity-greeter does not allow me to login as user "clint". What is the issue? [02:23] !ops | jdhfr [02:23] jdhfr: Help! Channel emergency!

[02:23] violinappren: just trial/erroring [02:23] I'm buying some RAM, and I'm not sure whether much else matters apart from whether or not it's DDR2 or 3. [02:23] As long as I buy DDR2, should work fine, right? [02:23] ClintZ, gdm was replaced by lightdm [02:23] xubuntu: try rebooting and use the mount command again [02:24] OhGodWhy: buy what your hardware requires maybe? [02:24] violinappren: um, what? [02:24] xubuntu: i am still betting on gparted being hung [02:24] OhGodWhy, you need to match the type ddr2 or ddr3 and you need to match the clockspeed of the ram you have (unless you plan to replace it) [02:24] tonyyarusso: read upward [02:24] escott: OK. Maybe I should give that a try? Any ideas why user wouldn't be listed? I suppose I could create a new one.. [02:24] Would it require a certain frequency though? [02:24] I plan to replace ALL the ram. [02:24] OhGodWhy: then you have to use what your motherboard supports. [02:25] Fair enough. [02:25] hey guys im having an issue with unity no matter what i do the launcher will not autohide i installed the ppa for naturaul autohide also and still nothing any suggestions [02:25] i am using wine to run a windsow file and it said "The file '/home/AVP/Downloads/ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso' is not marked as executable. If this was downloaded or copied form an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run. For more details, read about the executable bit. [02:25] OhGodWhy: you can mix them (slots?) nah, buy 3, as its cheaper, all same type [02:25] OhGodWhy: so if it uses DDR2 now you have to replace it with DDR2 [02:25] I cannot see metacity settings in dconf registry [02:25] b^j I terminated it and how do I open disk util from terminal ? [02:25] OhGodWhy, check wikipedia for your processor/northbridge and it should tell you what frequencies you need, but if you are replacing all the ram anything you buy should be fast enough [02:25] Yeah, see that's what I thought. === kyle is now known as Guest61908 [02:25] unity 5.12.0 [02:25] wylde: there are some exotics with bothtypes of slots, but can't mix it [02:25] Unity [02:25] jdhfr: Someone here might be able to help you with your issue, but they also might not know the answer, and as volunteers you can't demand a solution. With patience and use of various resources (this channel, forums, mailing lists, and bug reports) you can usually find a solution eventually. [02:25] ClintZ, what is not listed? a normal user account? what is the uid of that user? [02:26] is there a way to get a global menu for emacs in 12.04? [02:26] AVP: that file is a disk image, you can't run it with or without wine [02:26] AVP: ISO images are not executables ... [02:26] AVP: why would you run an iso in wine ???? [02:26] DasEi, I would prefer to use DDR3 but as I understand it, DDR3 has a different pin count and my slots are DDR2. [02:26] DasEi: yep I know, but I've always found it safer to lean towards the less exotic when you can't see the hardware yourself :) [02:26] OhGodWhy: so you have your answer then :) [02:26] xubuntu: is it gone from the ps listing? i would try the reboot violinappren suggested and see what happens then [02:26] So frequency shouldn't matter? It's not an exotic motherboard. [02:27] AVP: It is a file or an application [02:27] Shouldn't it support most if not all? [02:27] b^j I am alreadt from live session [02:27] hello guys, I've installed gnome 3.4 on Precise and I can't change the shell theme in gnome-tweak-tool. The drop-down menu is locked, and there's some sort of warning sign beside it with no clue on how to solve this problem. Do you have any idea on that? =x [02:27] Has anyone installed the alx driver? [02:27] I have a very tiny timeframe to order all the parts, and I know what to get for most of it, but the RAM has me stumped. [02:27] omg, I am loving the HUD [02:27] xubuntu: did you reboot after you had the issues with gparted? [02:27] Keep in mind the computer's currently being sent here, so I don't have it with me. [02:27] OhGodWhy: sudo apt-get install hwinfo pastebinit && sudo hwinfo | pastebinit ;apart there is #hardware [02:27] Quick question that someone may have the answer for. Does Xubuntu use a Grub2 bootloader [02:27] OhGodWhy: if it has DDR2 now then that's what you have to replace it with. [02:27] wrong file a next file anyways what do i do [02:28] b^j i had problems because I cant even boot in any system, whole drive is corrupted [02:28] atlas: yes [02:28] atlas: yess [02:28] OhGodWhy, ddr2 and ddr3 are not slot compatible [02:28] wylde: I know DDR2, I mean do I need a certain frequency? Or anything will do as long as I swap out all the sticks. [02:28] xubuntu: right so have you rebooted the live environment since the gparted issues [02:28] is there a way to change to a burg loader for the fancy GUI [02:28] ? [02:28] OhGodWhy: fsb of cpu ? [02:28] AVP a file like docx is different from a program that you want to install using wine [02:28] OhGodWhy, if you had ddr2 800 and added ddr2 600 that would not be good b/c your ram would be slower. if you are replacing all it shouldnt matter [02:28] anyone know how I can disable the check for new release screen on old releases? Its for a kiosk [02:28] OhGodWhy: you can actually mix them, however it's best to match them so that all are the same. [02:29] Thanks for the advice man. [02:29] OhGodWhy, you should review your motherboards documentation for the type of memory you should use. [02:29] I'll do that. [02:29] atlas: sure, can ue other bootloaders, too [02:29] AVP: what are you trying to do with the ubuntu ISO ? [02:29] escott, scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub pmp6nl@xx.xxx.xxx.xxx/~/.ssh/authorized_keys for ~/.ssh/authorized_keys ??? [02:29] use, atlas [02:29] OhGodWhy: there's also a ##hardware channel btw [02:29] Im looking to dual boot crunchbang and dont want ruin it [02:29] pmp6nl, why not use ssh-copy-id it will setup all the permissions for you, and won't obliterate your auth_keys file [02:30] violinappren: not a IOS, a browser that only support windsow but i want to run it in wine [02:30] After my 12.04 upgrade, my root fs partition is stuffed full! I cant uninstall or do anything. How can I clear up space on the / partition? [02:30] atlas: use alternate or netinstaller, don't make the ubu-installer install grub, add it to crunchbag's then [02:30] atlas: We don't support BURG here, and it seems like it has likely been abandoned. GRUB2 has themes also, like this one: http://apebox.org/wordpress/linux/261/ [02:30] studentz: didn't know [02:30] escott, not sure, just following the directions at http://library.linode.com/securing-your-server#sph_using-ssh-key-pair-authentication [02:30] AVP: right-click, run in Wine? [02:31] tomswartz07: try 'apt-get clean' first. [02:31] AVP: then why is there an ubuntu ISO in that message! [02:31] Hello. How do I fix things if one of my package dependencies is messed up ? It needs to remove a package that is "essential for the system" [02:31] pmp6nl, use ssh-copy-id user@hostname [02:31] b^j and I rebooted generally 500 times with different live cds and stuff [02:31] I might assume drive is broken :| [02:31] AVP: If you want to install a windows program with wine q4wine is a nice and easy GUI to use. If you want to open a file try to look for the app to open it [02:31] I didnt know. Thanks [02:31] * txomon|home is away: Estoy ocupado [02:31] anyone know what logs i could use to troubleshoot vpn pptp connection? using /var/logs/syslog primarily right now and its not too specific [02:31] tonyyarusso: tried that, no success. :( [02:31] !away > txomon|home [02:31] txomon|home, please see my private message [02:31] atlas: can go either way, here grub2 is expected/supported [02:31] !away | txomon|home [02:31] txomon|home: Please do not use noisy away messages and nicks in Ubuntu channels. It is annoying and unnecessary. Use the command "/away " to set your client away silently. See also «/msg ubottu Guidelines» [02:32] how can I purge entire Dconf user settings? [02:32] tomswartz07, first you have to figure out what is using the disk, with either du on the command line or baobob the disk usage analyzer [02:32] tomswartz07: bother. You can also use the Disk Usage Analysis tool from the Accessories menu to find things you don't need. [02:32] all right expect how do i allow it to open no permission [02:32] !trash | tomswartz07 [02:32] tomswartz07: Your GUI file manager's Trash folder is located at ~/.local/share/Trash/ for files moved to trash from your hard disk and .../.Trash-userid/ on external devices for files moved to trash from the device. [02:32] wrong file [02:33] AVP: err, was that a sentence? [02:33] the one i have is working good [02:33] ubottu: AH! Trash! I nearly forgot about that. Ill see if that clears up a bit [02:33] tomswartz07: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [02:33] xubuntu: your partition table is valid enough for fdisk to read it and identify the partitions, what live image are you using now? and to confirm you haven't run gparted on this current boot, correct? [02:33] Thanks guys. Just wanted to make sure before I tried installing Crunchbang next to my Xubuntu [02:34] tomswartz07: channel ro-bot, triggered by ! [02:34] !trash [02:34] Your GUI file manager's Trash folder is located at ~/.local/share/Trash/ for files moved to trash from your hard disk and .../.Trash-userid/ on external devices for files moved to trash from the device. [02:34] escott, nice. I think that worked. Is there a good way to test it? [02:34] I'm on a chat site, and the chat saves chat history in the form of a cookie using flash. It pops up with a small box asking if I want to accept or deny the storage of the chat history. However, I cannot select the box. Can someone help me? [02:34] pmp6nl, ssh user@host [02:34] Need help installing a printer. I can see the printer is connected to the router, and I followed the instructions at brother.com to install the cups driver, but when I try a test page I get that "printer might not be connected" what can I do? TIA! [02:34] AVP: for running a windows executable just use: wine yourfile.exe [02:35] PiNinja: permission to store on the cookie dir ? and rather have a log on disk for that [02:35] PiNinja: Pretty much the only thing you can do is try using a different flash player. ie if you're using Adobe's try Gnash and vice versa. Beyond that you're pretty much out of luck - Flash is evil like that. [02:36] escott, nice. The keyring came up. I think it works. Thanks so much! === osamalives is now known as kish [02:36] PiNinja: although DasEi may have a point too - Firefox probably does support Flash cookie security settings now days. [02:36] oi === nhanb is now known as nhanb483 [02:37] it's working now thank's peeps [02:38] hey [02:38] escott, Im good to go. It now logs in without a password. Thank you!!!

[02:40] !ask | cereal__ [02:40] cereal__: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [02:40] pmp6nl: install fail2ban, use different ssh port, long pswd and investigate portknocking [02:40] why to submit a bug to launchpad I need to install junk on my system? [02:41] clearing the trash did a little bit to help the stuffed partition, but not much progress. Im still locked out from using aptitude. any advice to clear some apps? [02:41] hey, my xchat isnt working right [02:41] jdhfr: Uh, what do you think you need to install? [02:41] jdhfr: have a tea for now and come back later ? [02:41] I have Ubuntu 12.04 installed on a laptop and desktop and trying to use the sync feature in the software center. Both systems are one a logged in to the same ubunt one account. when i click file sync between computers i dont see multiple computers. [02:41] what irc client you use [02:41] ? [02:41] tomswartz07: sorry, stupid question, but have you cleared your apt cache? [02:42] Flannel: yes, did already [02:42] (tom..) [02:42] Flannel: yep. i can clear it, but any other function is locked out. [02:42] tonyyarusso: stuff to make stacktraces and upload them [02:42] hello!, i am having a basic problem with make file, i need some guidance..... i am triying to convert all svg images into pdf, this is what i far so far for a simple (4 lines) makefile: http://pastebin.com/UhrHBRJ4 [02:42] Is there any other way to fix my Ubuntu installation? [02:43] but says: make: *** No rule to make target `%.pdf', needed by `all'. Stop. [02:43] ThePendulum: haven't seen your issue first hand [02:43] tomswartz07: well, you could remove (via rm) old kernels, assuming you don't have /boot on a separate partition (this won't matter, becuase you'll purge their packages later anyway) [02:43] jdhfr: you don't need that to file a bug..... It may make your bug report more useful, depending on the bug, but it's certainly not required. [02:43] k014: Try ##workingset for questions about make [02:43] k014, all %.pdf needs to be all: filename.pdf [02:43] what has me comfused is that my / is 168G and its completely full now. I have no way of determining what filled the partiton; boabab locks on use. Old kernels are gone. [02:44] ubuntu 12.04 with recommended nvidia drivers, the unity sidebar doesn't hide like it did in 11.10. how do you make it hide when you make a window full screen? [02:44] Jordan_U: ok i will go there thx, escott: i want to use a inference target [02:44] jdhfr: you don't need to install anything. You can just run 'ubuntu-bug packagename' or 'apport-collect bugnumber' [02:44] Flannel: I only have 3.2 kernels installed from my fresh upgrade [02:44] tomswartz07: what about du? [02:44] DasEi, thanks for the tip. I will install those and change the port [02:44] Ubuntu still boots with a black or half (recovery) screen [02:45] wylde: yes, apport is a name of a junk I mean [02:45] k014, but its completely wild at that point. make all with all: %.pdf translates to "make anything and everything that could possibly exists and ends in .pdf" which is not what you want. you dont want it to try and make asdlfka;lhetr;.pdf [02:45] Flannel: du outputs a whole ton of info- how to grep it for usefulness? [02:45] pmp6nl: the first 2 are no brainers, portknocking is a session as much as the 3 of them together [02:45] jdhfr: well you will already have it installed. All you have to do is run the command in terminal. [02:45] tomswartz07: My preferred method is du -hcs [02:45] b^j yes I havent run gparted on xubuntu 12.04 it failed cause of my corrupted windows partition that could have had damaged whole drive ? [02:45] can someone help me with "Couldn't configure pre-depend libdb5.1 for libpam-modules" when i try to upgrade to 12 [02:46] pmp6nl, or just forget everything DasEi suggested and disable ssh password login and rely on your authkeys [02:46] hehe ;) [02:46] I have Ubuntu 12.04 installed on a laptop and desktop and trying to use the sync feature in the software center. Both systems are one a logged in to the same ubunt one account. when i click file sync between computers i dont see multiple computers. [02:46] escott, DasEi ok. I was planning on disabling ssh by password [02:46] tonyyarusso: du -hcs outputs just total fs space? [02:47] tomswartz07: du -h --max-depth=1 [02:47] escott, DasEi Is it easy to reeneable this if I need to add someone else as a user with authkeys? [02:47] that'll give you a summary of each of the folders (and not subfolders) in your current dir, so you can try to figure out what's misbehaving. [02:47] pmp6nl: yes, sure [02:47] pmp6nl, then thats plenty. disabling password takes the "password" size up to 2^4096 everything else is just playing with small coefficients in front of your ascii password complexity [02:48] DasEi, ok. Thanks. escott cool. Will do [02:48] Does anyone know why running "halt" on a Ubuntu 12.04 box only halts the system instead of powering it off as well? [02:48] tomswartz07: you can use it to drill down and find big stuff. For instance, 'du -hcs /*' will tell you that /proc is not your problem, and perhaps that /home or /var is. Then if it's home, 'du -hcs /home/*' will tell you which users to check out, and so on. [02:48] CharlesA: try sudo shutdown -h now [02:48] DasEi: That works fine as does halt -p === dudendud is now known as Boson [02:49] hola me podría alguien ayudar con nvidia en ubuntu? gracias [02:49] !es [02:49] En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y presione intro. [02:49] xubuntu: that is odd, not sure i would expect different errors for corruption, like bad superblock. have you tried fscking the linux partition and seeing what it says? [02:49] sorry [02:49] :) [02:50] tonyyarusso: my /home is on a different partition. however, it's pretty full with downloads. would that make a difference? [02:50] So, I'm still trying to click the 'allow' for a flash storage thing. What is weird is it let me do it on a different linux distro (arch linux) on all three major browsers (FF, GC and opera). It isn't letting me do it on here, however. I tried reinstalling flash, and it still didn't work. Would posting a screen shot of the problem help with what I'm talking about? [02:50] I have a few SSL Virtualhosts and they work fine until I restart the box. Then all of the SSL virtualhosts point to the directory listed in default-ssl. If I restart Apache2 service manually everything works as intended. any ideas? [02:50] how to return the menubar to windows? [02:50] tomswartz07: If it's a separate partition, it won't affect / at all, no. [02:50] Flannel: thats what I thought. hrm. [02:50] tomswartz07: nah, but you get the idea. Just ignore anything that's a separate mountpoint. [02:51] DasEi: There was a bug report on it from 11.10, but I haven't been able to find if the behavior of halt is intended or if it is a bug. [02:51] CharlesA: can't say either, I'm using shutdown [02:51] DasEi: Ok, thanks for the help. [02:52] hi, i installed ubuntu 12 and my graphics is not working.I can only repair via [02:52] Hello, I have a USB with GRUB2 question. Should grub2 be installed on its own partition with bios_grub flag or with a OS and boot flag? [02:52] What version of ati catalyst is in the 12.04 repo?? [02:52] my menubars has gone, how to show them again? [02:52] CharlesA: if the -p switch works to power down then I'd imagine that's how it was intended to work. [02:52] CharlesA: halt not powering off is by design. I can't find the document with the rationale, but there's apparently one. [02:52] tonyyarusso: my /var/log is 161G. What? [02:52] CharlesA: man halt [02:52] <_0x783czar> Hello, I have an issue with package authenication on Ubuntu 10.04. Everytime I try to install a new package it tells me that it can't authenticate it. The only way I can get around this is to install from the terminal and tell it to install it anyway. Any idea why this might be happening or how I can fix it? [02:52] hi, i installed ubuntu 12 and my graphics is not working.I can only repair via terminal repair window but unable to connect to internet. How do i connect to wifi? i tried iwconfig wlan0 essid ACESS key KEY but not working [02:53] tomswartz07: Wow. Um, that might be your problem. :P [02:53] /var/log/upstart is 80G [02:53] Flannel: Running halt by itself powered off the box on Lucid, and it looks like it did the same up until 11.10 from what I can find [02:53] ubuntu 12.04 with recommended nvidia drivers, the unity sidebar doesn't hide like it did in 11.10. how do you make it hide when you make a window full screen? [02:53] Does anyone here know how i can get rid of the red exclamation mark besides an extension in gnome-tweak-tool which prevents it from activating? [02:54] tomswartz07: Unless you have a reason to care, you can just start deleting things willy-nilly in there, especially the gzipped versions from previous days/weeks. [02:54] /var/log/lightdm is 77G what the heck is going on here?

Everytime I try to install a new package it tells me that it can't authenticate it. The only way I can get around this is to install from the terminal and tell it to install it anyway. Any idea why this might be happening or how I can fix it? [03:01] wylde: good to know, that means propitary work again with ati in precise , Gnea ?

Both systems are one a logged in to the same ubunt one account. when i click file sync between computers i dont see multiple computers.

I can see the printer is connected to the router, and I followed the instructions at brother.com to install the cups driver, but when I try a test page I get that "printer might not be connected" what can I do?

[03:07] malv1: i do [03:07] malv1: yeah, what's up? [03:07] tomswartz07: do you use any proprietary drivers? [03:07] ati or nvidia? [03:08] ubottu: but that is still the same account that is used for the software sync system is it not? [03:08] ati proprietary, why do you ask? [03:08] for some reason my system refuses to post with uefi [03:08] Debolaz, can you paste lspci for me? [03:09] cereal__: ubottu is a bot, not a person [03:09] cereal__: I think you are not understanding what ubuntu one is.... it sync the files to a "cloud" then if you choose you can setup the other computer to sync the folders on the "cloud" [03:09] Hey guys. I just installed Mint 12 and it's overheating like crazy. I heard that I should change the kernel version since the bug is in it. So how do I install kernal without the overheating bug? [03:09] malv1: what version of ubuntu are you on? i had some issues with early 11.10 and the efi boots [03:09] 12.04 [03:09] anyone have an mdadm array that they spin down/up with hdparm? My drives go to standby just fine and on schedule, but when I try to bring them back up, hdparm says they are in standby and mdadm --detail says they are removed and faulty spares [03:09] cereal__: at any rate hit up the website and read a bit and/or visit #ubuntuone. [03:10] Help. [03:10] looks like I will need to reinstall everything back to non-efi [03:10] i need help with my audio skipping every so often, seems to only be certain programs [03:10] malv1: did you see if grub-efi installed correctly? [03:10] !mint | cleric_preston [03:10] cleric_preston: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [03:10] yea, it installed. it stops working as soon as I activate proprietary drivers [03:10] malv1: I have an hybridEFI on my board .. had faced a few problems like you with 10.04 .. the only solution was to reset BIOS and then set up everything again [03:10] cleric_preston: This is an Ubuntu support channel only. [03:10] wylde: It's the same issue in Ubuntu too, I just switched to Mint. [03:10] malv1: AH! okay. [03:11] malv1: youre on ATI's drivers, right? [03:11] malv1, and you do have gpt partition table right? [03:11] wylde: thanks i understand what ubuntuone is but my issue is with the new sync feature in the software center, and from what i read it uses ubuntuone log in to sync installed applications between computers, and that is what is not working. [03:11] cleric_preston: regardless Mint isn't suppoeted here. [03:11] escott: yea [03:11] Fine, tell me what to do for ubuntu, how to revert back to older kernel without the overheating bug? [03:11] lol [03:11] cleric_preston: You already told us you're not using Ubuntu.

[03:12] cereal__: ummm no, ubuntu one doesn't sync installed applications. [03:12] malv1: i needed to install the proprietary drivers manually. i had a similar issue [03:12] <_0x783czar> _0x783czar: this error also occurs when I use the graphical client but I do not have an option to proceed anyway [03:12] tonyyarusso: In other words, you don't know anything about the bug and Ubuntu and you just fail at life.

[03:14] what format do Ubuntu work with? [03:15] AVP: Could you rephrase your question please? [03:15] wilde: not ubuntuone - im talking in the ubuntu software center. [03:15] <_0x783czar> AVP: what sort of format? [03:16] cereal__: no, ubuntu one does not do that. It can sync folders, address book, music etc. It will not sync all your installed applications. I won't argue the point with you. Again, they can help you better with your problem in #ubuntuone. [03:16] tonyyarusso: thanks for your help. Im back up and running. I appreciate it!

[03:20] tonyyarusso twitter is always heavy n takes long time to open i need to fix this [03:20] yea [03:20] Gnea: oh thank's so how do i download opera browser for Ubuntu?

[03:21] Gnea: chrome's task manager shows shockwave using about 11 cpu and 79k memory [03:21] xangua: It's better to just follow the already-documented directions [03:21] hi [03:22] what's the package format? [03:22] AVP: just follow what ubottu said [03:22] tonyyarusso u mean i have blocked this site? [03:22] AVP: well, the files have a .deb extension [03:22] Gnea: installing the deb does install opera... And also adds the repository if that is what you mean [03:23] Q: what would be the fastest way to get all files in a directory? [03:23] cos i have a directory with 43,000 folders [03:23] .... [03:23] xangua: relying on the official documentation is the preferred method in this channel rather than pointing people to go directly to an external website. If the documentation requires it, it will let them know. [03:23] correction: a count of all directories within a folder [03:24] i need a count of all directories within a folder [03:24] Gnea: oh [03:24] AVP: package format is .deb [03:25] sherif: No, I mean if you want it to load faster you can block ads, pictures, flash, etc. [03:25] OomElvis: `find /your/folder -type d | wc -l` ought to do it. [03:27] hi, my ubuntu graphics is not working and I can only access the repair window. I have a thumg drive and want to copy important files in it via the repair window but none of the thumb drive is read. What should I do to copy files to the thumb drive? [03:28] tonyyarusso no man it takes long time to open not cuz connection slow or something the other sites opens fine but its just twitter that takes long time [03:29] Gnea: any other ideas? [03:30] tonesfrommars: did try that, but was slow [03:30] tonesfrommars: dont know if i can find a faster why, apart from having a C program do it maybe === jimmy_lo is now known as jimmy_lo_cheng_f [03:32] Hi folks, fresh install of 12.04, facing weired problem.

[03:46] Or you missed some earlier step [03:46] for what question tonyyarusso [03:47] sorry, that was for blackbird_ [03:48] oh [03:48] blackbird_, just simply extract cowpatty to your tools/wifi directory [03:48] you need to make tools wifi directory on your own [03:48] it could be inside your home folder [03:48] can i uninstall os x completely and install ubuntu as the only os on a macbook pro?

[04:10] I'm new to ubuntu and is now trying to connet to PPPOE via wifi [04:11] I use pppoeconf but it doesn't work [04:11] Hey - I'm not sure I have a problem, but I've just upgraded from 10.04 and the HUD seems to not work at all. [04:12] Like I press alt and it comes up, but if, for example I have firefox open and I type new tab, I get nothing [04:12] Hey can anyone tell me how to install drivers for my intel m so I can possibly fix my text issue with Ubuntu 12 [04:12] I use the Network tools and fount the "Link speed" is "not available" [04:13] guys I'm totally frustrated.. need help.. [04:13] I'm new to ubuntu and is now trying to connet to PPPOE via wifi [04:14] derekchiang: Why isn't your router / modem handling the PPP? [04:14] Jordan_U, I'm not sure what you mean [04:16] Has anyone else in here had a problem with HUD? [04:16] It gives me no results for whatever I type. [04:16] Jordan_U, I'm trying to use PPPOE via wifi [04:17] which works just fine under Windows 7 [04:17] derekchiang: PPP is a protocal for connecting to DSL (it's also used for other connections, but I'm assuming that's what you're working with). PPPoE is PPP over ethernet. Normally, rather than doing PPPoE, you have the modem (which may or may not be the same piece of hardware containing the wifi router) handle the DSL, and simply communicate to it using standard IP protocol. [04:18] Jordan_U: Thanks, but I can only work via wifi [04:18] what is up with the floodbots? [04:18] derekchiang: I don't think you understand, I am *not* suggesting that you use ethernet. [04:19] derekchiang: Do you use DSL? [04:20] hi all [04:20] I love you guize. 99 all. Take it easy. [04:20] Jordan_U: yes I use DSL, normally via Wifi [04:20] -_- [04:20] last day , I have upgrded into ubuntu 12.04 - fresh install [04:20] derekchiang: Do you have a DSL modem separate from your wireless router, or do you connect your phone line directly to the wireless router? [04:20] my touchpad wants to middle click if i tap the upper right corner [04:20] when i do poweroff , it seems that it dosn't shutdown my pc [04:20] this is A MILLION BILLION TIMES more annoying than normal tap to click [which I disabled] [04:20] how to disable? [04:20] only the power led it on [04:21] Jordan_U: I am not sure what you mean... but I don't use phone line [04:21] Jordan_U: basically my modem emits wifi signals and I can connect to it, and then normally under Win7 I just use the DSL [04:21] derekchiang, you mean 3G ?? [04:22] no no no... [04:22] ok [04:22] derekchiang: DSL is a form of internet connection over landline telephone cables. That's what it *is*: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_subscriber_line . [04:22] I tried to use pppoeconf but to no avail [04:23] Jordan_U: thanks, so I guess my modem uses a telephone line. but it emits signals and normally I just connect to it wirelessly [04:24] derekchiang: OK. So the device which is connected to your phone line is also your wireless router? [04:24] Jordan_U: eh I think so... though I'm not sure what's a wireless router [04:24] I'm Chinese, so I'm not so familiar with the technical terms... [04:25] hello ppl :) [04:25] derekchiang: A wireless router is a device which hosts a wireless network. It's what you're connecting to when you connect to wifi. [04:25] Jordan_U: OK, then I think it is [04:26] I have done some Google and I have successfully used pppoeconf to connect to internet. however it doesn't work anymore and I don't know why [04:26] hello [04:26] basically I connected to the wireless network and then I used pppoeconf, and it worked. not anymore [04:27] derekchiang: Good. Then it's probably easiest to configure it to handle the PPP connection itself. If the router/modem does the PPP itself then you don't need to use PPPoE at all. [04:27] why pppoe? gnome network manager will help :) [04:27] Jordan_U: thank you so much, so what exactly should I do? [04:27] I need some help building something, is there anyone willing to put up with me and help me diagnose the issue? [04:28] its called Dolphin-Emu [04:28] and it is a Wii emulator [04:29] the repos are broken and I'm having issues compiling [04:29] derekchiang: Figure out the ip address of your router and enter it into a browser window. From there you can configure the router to handle the DSL connection itself. [04:30] derekchiang: One warning though, if you change the configuration of the router but don't configure it successfully you may need to return the router to its previous configuration before you can connect with Windows again. [04:31] derekchiang, use ifconfig to check your ip information, and route -n to check your gateway === Lupinedk is now known as lupinedk [04:31] wo0t99: thanks, you mean type "ifconfig" into terminal? [04:31] derekchiang: Also, if it would be easier for you there are Chinese support channels for Ubuntu in #ubuntu-cn and #ubuntu-tw. [04:32] :) [04:32] Jordan_U: thanks!! I go to ifconfig but I find I have several ip address [04:33] derekchiang: Run "route -n". The ip address of your router will be the one listed under "Gateway" which is *not* 0.0.0.0. [04:34] Can somone help me configure my mouse? I have a huge issue. The 'clicker' does not hang onto a window it just keeps clicking... [04:34] thats actually cool. are you sure its not a hardware problem? [04:35] echo0ff_: in windows it does not do it. [04:35] i see === PatrickBateman is now known as ZzKitten [04:35] it must be a driver issue then [04:35] echo0ff_: this is what I susspect [04:35] I checked the logs..and not much help [04:35] before you do anything though, try a diffrent usb port [04:36] oh, wait sorry, I forgot to specify that it is a touchpad.. I am on a laptop [04:36] Jordan_U: oh I get it. is the username/password combination the same as the one that I use when I connect to DSL? I can't log in [04:36] i see [04:36] hmmmmm do you know what kind of touch pad it is? [04:37] with laptops sometimes things just dont work [04:37] Jordan_U: oh I figured it out [04:37] manufacturers wont release sources [04:38] echo0ff_: let me check. [04:38] Jordan_U: yeah now I see the user interface, what should I do then? [04:38] does anyone have dolphin-emu working in ubuntu? [04:38] derekchiang: It depends on your specific router. If the page is in English can you post a screenshot? [04:38] HELLO!??!? === dirtypillows is now known as ShameSpiral [04:39] echo0ff_: Name="SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPa [04:40] thats a common touchpad [04:40] echo0ff_: I see. [04:40] Jordan_U: sorry it's not in English... maybe you could tell me in vague terms what I should do and then maybe I can figure it out [04:40] just went back to 10.04 so much better [04:40] I have two notebooks using those and I have never had to mess with drivers [04:40] echo0ff_: I checked the catchall synaptics file and the 'two finger sroll' doesn't work either [04:40] ls [04:40] hold on let me check smthing [04:40] k [04:41] I am wondering is there any good software for ubuntu that allows you to create a media streaming server ... something that would beable to have people go to my website that I host locally and stream my webcam or live camcorder feed in real time [04:41] derekchiang: Look for settings related to DSL. There should be an area where you can enter the login information for your DSL so that the router can connect, rather than requiring everyone who connects via wifi to give that login information. [04:42] motherbrain: vlc [04:42] icecast works great for having my own internet radio station but for video is a different story [04:42] well I am using ubuntu and it seems to have preinstalled synaptics touchpad manager automatically [04:42] maybe there are specific settings you need to manuallly tweak [04:42] echo0ff_: I am also. But there is some issues.. [04:42] I have looked at vlc and never could get it to work [04:42] derekchiang: And again, be warned that changing these settings may break what you currently have working with Windows until you change them back. Do you understand that? [04:42] is there a way to set ubuntu's default gtk size?

It happens with some chipsets [04:43] echo0ff_: which makes me wonder why the two finger scroll doesn't work [04:43] that is a strange issue [04:43] echo0ff_: I hear ya. [04:43] motherbrain: but is the best option, i always do video streams in network classes... [04:44] have you googled the laptop model for issues? [04:44] see soo tuturials in google [04:44] *some [04:44] echo0ff_: 273-(**) Option "VertTwoFingerScroll" "True" [04:45] the funny thing is two finger scroll only works on my older laptop not my brand new one. its strange but true. [04:45] echo0ff_: yes, not much information.. it is sort of a rare laptop..g73sw, I was unable to get the keyboard lights working..had them working on the last install but nuked it [04:45] can somebody help me roll back my wireless bcm driver? [04:45] echo0ff_: yeah, this one is newer [04:46] I'm sorry without physically being there thats all I can think of [04:47] wolter: what do you mean? [04:47] echo0ff_: tnx, anyhow.. [04:47] but i am an old school unix guy, you may want to ask a linux fanatic [04:47] echo0ff_: heh, and where might I find one of those? [04:47] KM0201, after my upgrade to 12.04 I started getting problems with my wireless internet, I think reverting the driver to the version I had on 11.10 could fix the problem [04:47] somone on here [04:48] knows the answer [04:48] KM0201, the problem is that internet periodically disconnects and reconnects; about every 10 seconds [04:48] wolter: hmm, i guess the main thing would be to know which driver 11.10 has, vs 12.04 [04:48] echo0ff_: yeah, there is enough people.. [04:48] 12.04 fixed my net adaptors too [04:48] wolter: which broadcom is it?.. [04:48] KM0201, bcm4312 [04:49] i had a bcm 4312 on my acer and 12.4 made it work automatically [04:49] wolter: according to the broadcom docs, the 4312 will work with either hte STA driver, or the b43 driver... which one are you using? [04:51] hey, i've been looking online and still can't find anything about my problem. HUD finds no results when I type things into it. [04:52] KM0201, what should I grep for to see if I am using the sta driver? [04:52] wolter: really not sure. [04:52] wolter: i never used broadcoms, just vaguely familiar with them.. [04:52] KM0201, I would say bcm then because I have bcma and b43 on one line when I grep [04:54] Can anyone see when I type? [04:54] sadflapjack: yes [04:54] hi [04:55] Ok cool. Well then I suppose if anyone knows how to solve it they'll respond, and if they don't then I'll keep searching. [04:56] I'd help if I could but I don't even have the OS installed yet.

What is the meaning of the error and how can I fix it? === linuxsage is now known as nmvictor === torm3nt is now known as Oddman [06:12] ubuntu 11.10 works correctly on my machine but 12.04 internet is slow on wired dsl ? === nmvictor is now known as linuxsage [06:14] linuxuz3r: I restarted the machine and everything is fine :) [06:14] Hey guys. I've been asking this question for the past few days, but still to get an answer. Hopefully someone can help me today! I'm trying to set a cron job for a reboot. Tried 0 6 * * * reboot and 0 6 * * * shutdown -r 5, but it's just not doing it. Any ideas? [06:15] !sudo [06:15] sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo [06:15] I am having a bug that I've found a similar issue as I found in a forum, except I'm using an board that supports an AMD chipset for processor, if I were to list the line they say to add to fix the bug, could someone tell me if my direction of thought is correct in how to apply the bug fix to my situation? [06:15] who was that to, linuxsage? [06:16] hi [06:16] Having used Ubuntu since about 8.10 on up, I've noticed since 10.10 and especially 11.04 on up certain linux kernals have a bug with realtek alc 8888 codec I believe it is. [06:16] i have to remake grub [06:16] antnash: ubuntu by default doesn't allow the user to run reboot or shutdown without sudo [06:17] I'm using a GA-MA770T-UD3P Revision 1.0 board [06:17] The thread is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1426424 [06:17] hi everybody, is it possible for my flash-drive to get infected if it it using ext2 *3 or *4 if i insert it while i insert it into an infected windows machine? meaning if infected windows OS is running, and i insert my flash drive with the mentioned fs, is there any chase of getting the infection on the flash drive? [06:18] If I were to replace the intel with AMD in options snd-hda-intel model=generic would that apply to my board, or does it require I keep the intel, even though it's a AMD chipset for the processor. [06:19] i have 2 hd /dev/sda1 ubuntu and /dev/sdb1 windows i changed my sdb becouse was broken,i had reinstalled windows and now following wiki i remake grub [06:19] if you copy an infected file to the flash drive then yes. You will have problems getting windows to even mount a Ext filesystem though [06:19] paranoidphreak, yes but unlikely. Windows probably can't even read the filesystem to begin with. [06:19] Not really nutty [06:19] ext2fs I believe it's called. [06:19] paranoidphreak: i think no. because windows does not support ext file system format [06:19] again, there's a program for windows users to mount ext filesystems... [06:19] wjcw: but wouldn't running crontab as sudo fix that? [06:19] ..do I have to repeat myself, there's software that corrects that issue. [06:19] but grub before was installed on mbr [06:20] thanks everyone for your opinions [06:20] I've been able to use it to access my Ubuntu filesystems repeatedly, when I was prefering to use it for my desktop OS and was using XP as my windows OS. [06:20] antnash: it should work if you're adding this to root's crontab [06:20] and gaming [06:20] to do that i have to type : grub-install -dev/sda or /dev/sdb [06:21] can someone tell to me i'm a little bit confused [06:21] ? [06:21] wjcw: By running sudo crontab -e should I be adding it to root'scrontab? [06:22] Jordan_U: I finally was able to solve the problem of using pppoe over wifi!!! The solution is simple, though: I just edit my wifi connection and under the tab "IPv4 Settings" I change "Method" from "Automatic" to "Link-Local Only" [06:23] Jordan_U: and to be honest I still don't know why it works. but it does! [06:23] why doesn't the songs on myspace ever work it says update your flash you have 11.2.202 [06:23] madarchod [06:24] n00bBot: ha ha ha [06:24] anyone can tell me? [06:24] hi pigeta [06:24] hi [06:25] you reinstalled windows after installing ubuntu? [06:25] ? [06:25] i guess you fixed it [06:26] hi all [06:26] my old sdb1 was brken so i buy a new one and reinstalled windows but ubutu is on sda [06:26] pigeta [06:26] ok [06:27] when i install windows on sdb [06:27] so you got a new sdb [06:27] yes [06:27] a new hard drive [06:27] do you have ubuntu cd or usb? [06:27] Does anyone know about the alc888 codec issue with 10.04 on up it seems? [06:27] can anyone recommend a good media logging program - basically I have a folder of family videos taken over the years and I want to keep my folder structure but get a program to scan the filenames and then be able to tag each video to allow me to find vids easier ? [06:27] and also what version of ubuntu u using? === _rooot is now known as rooot [06:27] yes i type from that cd-live [06:27] ok [06:28] i used 12.04 [06:28] antnash: yeah, you can always verify if the crontab is isntalled correctly in /var/spool/cron/crontabs/, also you could try putting your crontab for rebooting and shutting down in /etc/cron.d/ [06:28] ok [06:28] using [06:28] you have to do several things [06:28] i follow wiki [06:28] ok [06:28] you need to recover grub [06:29] yes [06:29] recover it [06:29] google will help you [06:29] but how? [06:29] yea wiki too [06:29] wjcw: cd /var/stuff -> permission denied. sudo cd/stuff -> sudo : cd: command not found [06:30] pigeta there are many ways you could have installed grub and ubuntu [06:30] but it say to install grub in MBR type: grub-install /dev/sda [06:30] is there a way to automatically mount a partition upon boot in a location in my home directory? [06:30] admin@bcod.co.in === irdx is now known as irdxafk [06:30] pigeta yes [06:30] you need that [06:31] pigeta [06:31] try grub recovery after windows installation [06:31] xbmc pleximediaserver showtime just to name a few [06:31] google that [06:31] but my question is: i have windows on sdb like first boot on bios setting [06:32] ok [06:32] lnsmod: thanks [06:32] change it to sda [06:32] why doesn't the songs on myspace ever work it says update your flash you have 11.2.202 [06:32] chirag [06:32] :) [06:32] pigeta [06:32] do you wanna use grub or the bios as your boot selector? [06:32] so i type grub-install /dev/sdb? [06:32] no [06:33] it is sda === lupinedk is now known as Lupinedk [06:33] Hi all, I got a small problem I am on Ubuntu 12.04, and since i have installed the graphic driver for nvidia i cant access the console with ctrl+alt+1 . ( my screen is black or not readable) Any idea? [06:33] ctrl alt f1 i mean [06:34] pigeta your setup is a bit confusing to grub [06:34] sudo jockey-gtk benny and choose the recommended driver [06:34] you should set your bios to boot to sda [06:34] i ll try that [06:34] then do grub-install /dev/sda [06:35] and windows will start? [06:35] after i do that? [06:35] benny_: yeah downgrade to 295.33 will probably help. [06:35] grub will create an entry in the boot selector of grub so you can boot windows [06:36] if you do grub-install /dev/sdb i think it is possible to overwrite your windows mbr [06:36] and it might not boot your windows installation [06:37] ok but i can type now grub-install /dev/sda and after set sda as like first disk or not? [06:37] pigeta [06:38] did you have a boot partition specified when you installed ubuntu? [06:39] Hi! I just upgraded to ubuntu 12.04, and when I boot into the desktop, it's completely broken. Mouse is not working, only some keys are working and graphics is messed up, lot's of icons are missing. I can't even access a terminal, so is there a way to boot into terminal rather than desktop? [06:39] no [06:39] is a problem? [06:39] no [06:40] ill look a link for you so you can install it [06:40] it == grub [06:40] Danne_: Yes. Hold shift during boot and select the recovery mode entry. [06:40] I downloaded the installation disk and booted it, but found no "recovery mode"-option [06:40] Danne_: welcome to the ubuntu experience [06:40] hehe, thanks, ill try it! :) === somebody is now known as yodee [06:41] Danne_, I would use LiveCD and upgrade the install again [06:41] http://askubuntu.com/questions/83771/recovering-grub-after-installing-windows-7 pigeta [06:41] Danne_: thats going to happen each time you upgrade so get used to it. but anyway if you're using nvidia binary drivers and hardware before 8 series, downgrading your driver to 295.33 might help [06:41] whaddup my ballsacks [06:42] !language | yodee [06:42] yodee: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional.

[06:43] can i upgrade (not reinstall) installation from livecd? [06:43] kx: last dist-upgrade went terriffic [06:44] Hello! I get this error when I try to ssh into remote system in verbose mode - http://paste.ubuntu.com/956763/ . Both the systems have openssh-server with openssh-client package installed. What is the meaning of the error and how can I fix it? [06:44] pigeta, do that link i gave you [06:44] kx: also, i'm only using an intel integrated graphics card [06:44] Danne_: you can chroot into your disk installation and apt-get updates with an intern connection. very likely if you point apt-get to the cdrom from you can dist-upgrade from there. either option would take some work [06:44] does any one experienced issue when installing nvidia driver after update to 12.04? [06:44] Danne_: thats what they all say [06:45] bluebk: of course. it's ubuntu after all. downgrade to 295.33 drivers [06:46] compiz crashes after the installation of nvidia driver and the screen turn black after logging in [06:46] bluebk: can you be more specific on the install problem though? [06:46] yeah. downgrade probably what youre looking for [06:47] i havent download the nvidia driver though [06:47] the latest driver has known stability problems on a lot of hardware but ubuntu provides them as stable anyway [06:47] new version of ubuntu does not work very well yet [06:47] they released it too early, half-baked [06:47] orated: Do you have physical access to the server? [06:48] kx: thanks for the tips, how would i chroot into my system using livecd? [06:48] whenever i log into ubuntu he asks me to unlock some application that need keyring wut is that? [06:49] woonix: Not at the moment [06:49] Danne_: first you mount it then chroot /mount/location should be basically all you need. but first copy your /etc/resolv.conf to the /mount/location/etc/resolv.conf so your internet works. i think that should be basically it [06:49] should i update the nividia that said version current or the one that said post release update ? [06:49] orated: Did you just install the server OS recently? have you ever been able to get in? [06:50] bluebk: what version is the post release update [06:50] Danne_: Were you not able to boot into recovery mode as I explained? [06:50] woonix: No [06:50] Jordan_U: yeah, but it was as broken as the normal boot. couldn't access anything [06:52] orated: I asked two questions and got one answer. [06:53] My gut says that i rebooted before the upgrade where completely ready. I thought it was early for the upgrade to ask me to reboot, but didn't think more about it [06:53] bluebk: honestly you should probably just install the driver manually. ubuntu's packages are junk. then when ubuntu's version gets updated to a working version 10 years from now, manually uninstall the driver, then reinstall the ubuntu package version [06:53] does GRUB support UEFI [06:54] mint_: Yes. You'll need to install the grub-efi-amd64 package though. [06:54] ok [06:54] i keep getting this error Executing 'grub-install /dev/sda' failed [06:55] mint_: Are you using Ubuntu or Linux Mint? [06:55] mint [06:55] !mint | mint_ [06:55] mint_: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [06:55] mint_: There is also #grub for grub specific questions. [06:56] okay [06:56] what is a good project management software? [06:57] is there nickserv on here? [06:57] bluebk: Primavera [06:57] Danne_: In your chroot you'll probably also want to mount /dev/ /proc/ /sys/ and /dev/pts/. If you mounted your Ubuntu partition to /mnt/ the the commands to do that would be: for dir in /dev/ /dev/pts/ /proc/ /sys/; do sudo mount --bind $dir /mnt/$dir; done [06:58] !register | APoulos [06:58] APoulos: Information about registering your nickname: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat/Registration - Type « /nick » to select your nickname.

[06:59] APoulos: Yes, Freenode has a nickserv. === Kaco_ is now known as Kaco === APoulos is now known as APoulos_ [07:04] Jordan_U: thanks for the suggestion, though i actually managed to get to a terminal by choosing an older linux-kernel in grub, and from there i could jump to another tty [07:04] Jordan_U: there sudo apt-get upgrade complained about libjpeg8 (or something like that), so I reinstalled that package, and now the package manager is doing a whole bunch of stuff :P [07:04] Danne_: To ensure that the upgrade completed run "sudo dpkg --configure -a" then "sudo apt-get -f install". [07:05] Danne_: :) Hopefully that will sort things out then. [07:06] hello i need some help with connecting to wif if network using static ip [07:06] hi ............where do i get unity source code [07:07] Jordan_U: Yup :) by just issuing "apt-get install libjpeg8", it seems to continue the whole dist-upgrade process. Is this a bug I should file somewhere? Seems like libjpeg8 broke the upgrade-process [07:07] killer: apt-get source unity [07:07] Danne_: Yes, please file a bug report. Especially since it sounds like the upgrade tool didn't even warn you that something had gone wrong. [07:07] Jordan_U and where will be source code of unity be saved [07:08] killer: In the current directory. [07:08] anand: u can put in static IP in network-manager or by using iwconfig command [07:11] hello [07:11] Jordan_U: i m not currently on a ubuntu machine [07:12] prasad, hello. Do you have a technical support question? [07:12] killer: Then you can install Bazarre and "bzr branch https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/unity/ubuntu" [07:13] Is there a way in terminal to set a shutdown timer for say... 3 hours?

[07:16] you can always see man page of it for more information :Areckx [07:16] APoulos_: sudo shutdown -h +180 [07:16] how do you check what version your grub is [07:16] Areckx: [07:17] oops, nevermind [07:17] mint_: something like dpkg -l grub === pete__ is now known as cbx33 [07:19] mikubuntu: I use audacity for audio editing [07:19] mikubuntu: and it has an amplify feature [07:20] woonix :-is there a site to learn about audacity except man pages and youtube [07:20] woonix, thanks is there some easy way to amplify the recording, for instance of http://thefloridachannel.org/video/41812-florida-channel-news-brief/ [07:21] Jordan_U, kx: It's working now, thanks for your help! :) [07:21] killer: just the official site as far as I know.

It happens at random intervals, but usually 10 minutes is the minimum. [07:44] i want to apply the patch in this thread http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=177380 but i don't want it to break anything, what's the best way to do this? can i build a deb package? [07:45] jschall: the fixes in that post shouldn't involve patching anything. It's just editing a config file. [07:46] mystblade9, have you tried using non-accelerated drivers? [07:46] kazuni: You mean nouvou? [07:47] or even plain vesa [07:47] jschall: ah, if you mean the one linked to in there, then ignore my last comment [07:47] I guess I could switch back to nouvou [07:47] belak: i do. [07:47] try that - it fixed my 6800GT back then. [07:47] mystblade9: what do you need 3d acceleration for? [07:47] belak: games [07:47] but of course, later on I did switch back to accelerated graphics drivers [07:47] belak: unless you have another way to fix flash without disabling vdpau [07:48] jschall: On an nvidia card? [07:48] belak: yes. [07:48] Don't use nvidia? [07:49] Sorry, I know that's not helpful [07:49] anyone knows how to install passenger mod for apache on rvm? [07:49] belak: yeah, that's basically just offensive. [07:50] anybody knows of youtube screenlet [07:51] belak: it's not nvidia's fault, flash sends the colors in the wrong order, i'm reading the patch, it literally just swaps the data around [07:51] railsraider: passenger-install-apache2-module and passenger-install-nginx-module. [07:52] QUIT [07:52] root_: i did that but it point the load path to the gem under rvm [07:52] should the passenger gem be installed on root and not on the rvm? [07:52] and it's been like this for months now, long known issue. no fix from adobe. [07:53] and given that they've released the last version of flash for linux, i doubt they'll ever fix it [07:53] jschall: I have the impression Adobe has, somehow, done this on purpose. [07:53] jschall: Albeit sneakily [07:54] railsraider: is it a local install or global install of rvm? [07:54] mystblade9: no, flash works fine in all cases other than software decoding and vdpau output [07:54] mystblade9: why would you say they did it on purpose? [07:54] belak: its on a server, what do you mean local? [07:54] kazuni: Do you mean trying to switch back to nouvou? [07:54] jschall: it's a flash issue with nvidia cards then... [07:54] railsraider: it's either installed in ~/.rvm or /usr/local/rvm [07:55] ah ~/.rvm [07:55] jschall: Because, it's the last version of Flash for linux, and THAT version of all versions has a bug that makes Xorg drastically unstable and Flash videos blue. [07:55] Ok, either way passenger should be installed under rvm, NOT root [07:55] jschall: It makes me suspect something. [07:55] jschall: Of course, only for nVidia cards, but still. [07:55] belak: but it's a problem on adobe's end, which means it's "pass the buck and don't fix the stupid fing problem" time on nvidia's part, and adobe's never going to fix it, which means the users are screwed [07:56] jschall: so, call adobe and complain. Heh. [07:56] Has anyone managed to get wine working on *buntu x64 12.04? [07:56] Or find something that doesn't use flash. [07:56] Alright, i'm gonna try to switch back to Nouvou [07:56] swook, what is wrong with wine in ubuntu? [07:56] belak: literally, lol. laughing out loud. [07:56] in Precise, to be precise [07:56] the 32bit dependencies haven't been fixed up [07:56] so installing wine isn't possible atm [07:57] I'm off... goodnight all [07:58] is anybody experiencing alt tab issue with unity 2d? [07:58] yes, greenmang0 [07:58] its a known bug [07:58] kazuni, any fix available for it? [07:58] belak: should i use rvmsudo? the problem is that the load path to the apache passenger points to /usr/local/passenger/ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so and the installation of the gem point to .rvm/gems/ree-1.8.7-2012.02/gems/passenger-2.2.15/ext/apache2/mod_passenger.so [07:58] greenmang0, not that i know of [07:59] swook, really [07:59] kazuni, :( [07:59] swook, what are the packages for 32bit userland [07:59] belak: the other servers are using the /usr/local/passenger path [08:00] kazuni, problem is also with apps in systray ... when i click them .. they don't get focus ... instead just the icon in launcher jiggles [08:00] umm can anybody tell me the problem here, I need to find out why unity is not loading... here is the link: http://paste.ubuntu.com/956878/ [08:01] shani0610: did it work before? [08:01] greenmang0, i dont seem to have that problem [08:01] shani0610: Did unity ever work before? [08:01] kazuni, lucky you :) [08:01] no [08:01] After some restarts, my new Ubuntu12.04 always uses the fallback theme. It doesn't seem to load any of my settings, ctr+alt+t for example doesn't work anymore neither. I dont think I did anything to crash it. Is there any log for gnome-settings-daemon or something? [08:02] linuxuz3r: A few including libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 libglu1-mesa:i386 [08:02] I have freshly installed 11.04 [08:02] shani0610: It seems that your computer doesn't support unity. Use unity 2d. [08:02] How to restart in ubuntu? [08:02] how to do so? [08:02] im trying to use my westell 7500 wifi modem/router to connect to a wifi network on 12.04 but cant seem to figure out how to do so can anyone help [08:02] Twinlater: log out is a basic restart [08:03] Twinlator: [08:03] shani0610: At the login screen, change the session to unity 2d [08:03] linuxuz3r: at some point after adding the monto my install command, I reach libxdamage1:i386 [08:03] libxdamage1:i386 : Breaks: libxdamage1 [08:03] gimp isn't installable either [08:03] I was verily annoyed by Precise [08:03] shani0610: or you can launch it from a command line with the command unity-2d --replace [08:03] Pouncer, but it's different from restart [08:04] but I dont have it installed i guess, coz I dont see any such option [08:04] but I will look again [08:04] Twinlator: yea its just a basic restart of the gui [08:04] shani0610: then install with apt-get. sudo apt-get install unity-2d [08:05] in ubuntu 11.10, i can type "restart" in dash home, but in 12.04, there is nothing. [08:05] Alright, i'm now on Nouvou. [08:05] And it's actually running Minecraft pretty well [08:05] Didn't know Nouvou supported 3D? :o [08:06] I have the idea everything's faster, too [08:06] Twinlator: in 12.04 im not sure i just started messing with it 2 days ago [08:06] mystblade9: that is what nouveau is for (3d) [08:06] auronandace: I thought it only supported 2D [08:07] Ok , that's all right! [08:07] mystblade9: thats nv [08:07] Twinlator: try hitting the superkey and type restart in there and see what comes up [08:07] swook, what is libxdamage1 for? [08:08] Not only that, Minecraft seemed to take up a lot less resources and make my PC lag a lot less. I guess the propietary nVidia drivers atm are crappy? [08:08] Pouncer, I will try. [08:08] mystblade9: atm? generally speaking, they're not in the greatest of software [08:08] gaelfx: It used to work fine for me. [08:09] mystblade9: the nvidia drivers are pretty good, nouveau needs to catch up a little on power management (more likely to overheat) [08:09] gaelfx: Well, as far as "fine" goes in my experience with video drivers for Linux.. I'm so used to instability that I don't even notice small instabilities anymore xD [08:09] mystblade9: took em about 2 years to get audio over hdmi to work, finally [08:09] swook, are you still there [08:10] how can i edit what info will be generated in resolv.conf ater reboot ? [08:10] shani0610: Are you still there? [08:10] yeah, I geuss it stll gives error [08:10] creating a log what I got there [08:10] shani0610: Install unity-2d with apt-get install unity-2d [08:11] then run it with unity-2d --replaec [08:11] *unity-2d --replace [08:11] can anyone help im trying to use my westell 7500 wifi modem/router to connect to a wifi network on 12.04 but cant seem to figure out how to do so can anyone help [08:11] yes I am trying to install it bt getting an error: Broken packages === smw_ is now known as smw [08:12] !backtrack | shani0610 [08:12] shani0610: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes.

This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. [08:18] auronandace: thanks! [08:18] (not sarcastic. I am actally thankful :)) [08:19] neattoast: no worries, it is named rather oddly [08:20] auronandace: thanks :) [08:20] hello everybody [08:20] anyone good with networking [08:21] yeah i have tons of facebook friends [08:21] sorry modem hanged, I have unity installed, so do I have to kinda remove it to work the other? [08:21] I mean 2d? [08:21] shani0610: No, they can both be installed, it seems you have a strange system. Would you be willing to upgrade to 11.10? [08:22] yep in near future to 12.04 [08:22] shani0610: Then upgrade to 11.10, which comes with unity-2d. [08:22] I need some help with vssftp. I have a server set up and running but the client just can't connect. chroot_local_user is enable on the serve. BUT if I disable that command, the client CAN join. Ofcourse that won't do, because security. Have you got any idea? [08:23] vsftpd [08:23] If you have a fresh install you can either upgrade with apt-get upgrade or reinstall (recommended_ [08:23] So if I get 12.04 I wont get 2d?

[08:24] shani0610: Good luck! [08:24] i think install 12.04 from *.iso better than upgrade. [08:24] shadykhan: check about:config [08:24] Twinlator: Agreed. [08:25] just a thought, unity needs more latest pkgs than 2d I guess? [08:25] shani0610: unity uses a 3d redering engine whereas 2d doesn't, so yes. [08:26] then it should've worked already, strange [08:26] On second thought, I did find a bug for my problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/squid3/+bug/988802 [08:26] Launchpad bug 988802 in squid3 (Ubuntu) "squid3 killed by ABRT signal. assertion failed: disk.cc377: "fd >= 0"" [High,Confirmed] [08:27] * nikolja Dobar dan o/ [08:27] shani0610: your original dump said your graphics card wasn't good enough.

Also, is it just the application that is slow, or windows itself in the virtual machine? [08:46] *virtual [08:46] on the moonlight page there are only references to firefox and chrome [08:47] DarwinSurvivor, windows itslef is slow [08:47] any ideas? [08:47] DarwinSurvivor, the interface lags [08:47] cristian_c: Try installing them both, I think midori can use both chrome and firefox plugins.

[08:47] neattoast, ok, thanks [08:47] DarwinSurvivor, win 7 ultimate with 4GB of ram [08:47] dr--willis, https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-doc-web.html.en this is the doc.

I'd like to enter pinyin with tone marks, but can't figure out how.

[09:02] so ... it would be nice if I could get a list of packages from it [09:02] hoshi411: boot live cd and chroot in, then see the !clone factoid [09:02] I'm thinking about dia, kivio and libreoffice draw [09:02] cristian_c: Then install moonlight from the command line. (apt-get install moonlight) (or something liek that) [09:02] *like [09:02] gaelfx: I get the error "boot error" before grub even starts [09:03] hoshi411: if you cant boot a live cd.. you got deeper issues [09:03] dr--willis: thanks I will look into clone factoid [09:03] gaelfx: oops [09:03] hoshi411: well, you could try to boot from a livecd/usb, but if the HDD is totally useless, you won't get anything [09:03] hello guys [09:03] dr--willis: the system that will not boot IS A LIVE cd [09:03] what do I have to do in order to make cube work in xubuntu ?

[09:06] but I would like to simply get a list of the packages that I had installed on the old system [09:06] dr--willis: ^ [09:06] hoshi411: its a ext2 or 3 fs you can mount/fsck and see whats there. ;) ive not dug into it much [09:06] Any issues beside the display, WiFi, battery indicators, touchpad on laptop? [09:06] running xrdp on my ubuntu, when i connect from win client, it disconnects me with the error "error in protocol"... what to do? if i use a linux client, it works like a charm.

[09:12] gaelfx: installer say "Internal Error" [09:12] JensenDan: sounds like a problem on the windows side, try the ##windows channel [09:13] pratz: during which step? [09:13] gaelfx: when we select the country for timezone i guess, Installer - "Where are you from" or something like that [09:13] window trouble shooting step 1 - turn off windows firewall. ;) [09:13] DarwinSurvivor, I followed the tsocks part as its written and still get the same errors. I think my problem is the tsocks.conf file.

I know lots of trading *servers* run linux, but not sure about clients. [09:15] simple question. how do i change the view to "detailed view" in the file browser ?? [09:15] DarwinSurvivor, http://tinypaste.com/621f6ed4 this is the shell response [09:16] I am running server 12.04 in VM and for some reason it's not bringing up the 2nd nic automaticly what do I do wrong?

[09:20] gaelfx: before that is hard disk partition step [09:20] kobiluruz: at the very top in the panel, unless thts the actual problem [09:21] kobiluruz: they should appear when you hover the mouse up top [09:21] gaelfx: i first though that my hard disk is corrupt, so i installed debain 6 and it was installed without any problem [09:21] kobiluruz: then you go to the view menu and at the bottom you have the several option to choose from [09:21] gaelfx: do you think the iso image was not proper ? [09:21] dr--willis, ahh ok. i see list and compact [09:22] thanks. [09:22] kknown issue with the globelmenus.. easy to overlook them.;) [09:23] i think there was some tweak/suggetion to make the menu itemsshow when an app first launches to remind the user they exist.. [09:23] that would be good for noobs like me :p [09:23] DarwinSurvivor, any ideas? [09:24] kobiluruz: if using 12.04 the HUD also lets you find menu items quickly; hit the alt key and start typing.. ie: list would show the list menu item. (i think) [09:24] ah nice.thanks for the tip [09:24] Is there a proper default hardware info tool in 12.04, or do I have to use terminal with a live CD? [09:25] !info hwinfo [09:25] hwinfo (source: hwinfo): Hardware identification system. In component universe, is optional. Version 16.0-2.1 (precise), package size 17 kB, installed size 98 kB [09:25] on bootup [09:25] from windows i have this \\serverip\programfolder\example.exe /h=remote-server how can i have the same in ubuntu 12.04 [09:25] not sure about 'default' i always install stuff :) [09:26] ? [09:26] ubuntu does not ask password, how can i make it ask for password [09:26] how can i live stream my desktop? [09:26] LukeNukem: from the grub menu? or when the user logins? [09:26] dr--willis, when i bootup ubuntu takes me to my account [09:27] 2nd question. how can i get eyefinity. or atlest set up my other 2 monitor somehow. i have 3 monitors and all are showind the same desktop. :\ [09:27] it does not ask for password for that account [09:27] mine is the only account on this pc [09:27] LukeNukem: the login manager settings has a autologin option you can change [09:27] i want it to ask for password like in windows [09:27] dr--willis, do i need to install that [09:27] its in the nroaml tools/settings [09:27] normal [09:28] I have problems with tsocks. http://tinypaste.com/621f6ed4 [09:28] dr-willis so its a package I have to install. hmm, i was planning on using it on a live cd [09:28] wonder if its in the hud.. if using 12.04 try alt -: 'login' and see if it shows up [09:28] dr--willis, i dont see it in system settings [09:28] hi guys, i've installed precise on an aspire 5750g with i3 and nvidia card. To start livecd i've to use "nomodeset" option 'cause it won't start, but using option i do that. Now i've precise installed but unity 3d won't work [09:28] hobbel: there may be other tools i rarely notice whatgs default [09:28] LukeNukem: look around.. its there.. or try the alt (text) trick [09:28] user accounts is where the login control is [09:29] okay [09:29] dr-willis without internet i cant install, will try to add package to livedics :) [09:29] auto login is turned off :D === erdem is now known as Guest6005 [09:30] That HUD can be handy for finding settingsi guess. ;) [09:31] hello, ive installed another language but in "language support" settings the new language is gray and i cannot switch [09:32] ive read that i have to select it on login but on lubuntu login there is no lang selection [09:32] How can I use tsocks on ubuntu? [09:33] faryshta: sorry had to deal with cats :( [09:33] How can i check if my machine is 32 or 64 bit? [09:33] faryshta: try adding spaces around the = signs like the example has [09:33] is the ubuntu server, ubuntu minimal? [09:33] why i must upgrade this ? [09:34] Chr|s: not really [09:34] >_> this stuff is killing me [09:34] @diverdude uname -a [09:34] i can't install MyPaint 1.0 (i can only 0.8) [09:34] !minimal | Chr|s [09:34] Chr|s: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD === ubuntu is now known as myhero [09:34] What do you make of this? Graphics/chipset is Intel Atom Z5xx/SCH US15W using default LVDS display settings of 1024x768 resolution. During init there is some text about EDID configuration failure. http://xerent.lokalen.org/incoming/ubuntuinstall.jpg [09:35] anyone know how I can see a list of what packages I have installed on my machine? is it written in a list somwhere? [09:35] can some one tell me how i can install MyPaint 1.0 on Ubuntu 10.10 ? [09:35] DarwinSurvivor, that solved it. [09:35] diverdude: the CPU has to be 64bit capable. Do you know what CPU you have? [09:35] faryshta: good to hear. sometimes it's the simple things :P [09:35] DarwinSurvivor, thanks. [09:35] ZOmBIENiNGA: that will likely be an exercise in frustration, 10.10 is no longer supported. [09:35] minimec: no i dont [09:36] minimec: how can i see ? [09:36] hoshi411, this command will give the list and can be used for installing. dpkg --get-selections > installed-software [09:36] i know its no longer supported [09:36] diverdude: Do you have a system installed on that computer? [09:36] but Unity is suck [09:36] i like the old gnome 2 [09:36] so i use 10.10 [09:36] ZOmBIENiNGA: give xfce a try (xubuntu) [09:36] ZOmBIENiNGA: then don't use unity (and actually, as a long time hater of unity...) i just started using it again to give it a try, it's gotten WAY better in 12.04 [09:37] i did it [09:37] minimec: yeah a ubuntu 10.10 [09:37] ZOmBIENiNGA: EOL versions are offtopic for this channel [09:37] minimec: but i want to install 12.04 LTS [09:37] minimec: but forgot if it s a 32 or 64 bit [09:37] well so i can't get MyPaint 1.0 ? [09:37] Hi Friends !i am facing a very rare problem .I upgrade the ubuntu to 12 ls and now i can not able to print nothing through cable connection but i can do it through the wireless . When i am connecting the cabe it seems that the date is transferring but it stopped by the computer i changed 3 different printers and both i face the same problem . Please advice i need your helps [09:37] diverdude: OK. So open the 'System Monitor'. In the first tab you find the info about your CPU [09:37] ZOmBIENiNGA: there's other GUI's than just Unity... KDE, XFCE, LXDE, and numerous others. [09:38] diverdude: Can you tell us, what's written there? [09:38] Fyodorovna: thank you that works [09:38] Hello, I upgraded from Ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04 LTS !!! Now i m unable to here sound. While turning ON my laptop I do here Ubuntu Theme Music but I m not able hear any sound while playing Songs or Videos. I do here sound when I connect external Speakers. Whenever I connect Speakers, i have to go to Sound Setting & Have to select OUTPUT as "Headphones" then only the sound is audible in speakers as well as my Inbuilt Laptop speakers. I w [09:38] why i can't use gnome 2 on 12.04 ? [09:38] and awesome ... [09:38] ZOmBIENiNGA: since it is offtopic, this channel cannot help you with support questions [09:38] ZOmBIENiNGA: gnome2 is dead, no longer maintained [09:38] ZOmBIENiNGA: because gnome2 is no longer in development [09:38] hoshi411, no problem. [09:38] diverdude: Also tell us how much Memory you have... [09:38] oh >_> [09:38] I think there is a fork of gnome2 called mate. [09:38] minimec: it does not say how much bit there [09:38] ZOmBIENiNGA: again, XFCE looks a LOT like gnome2 [09:39] fork ? [09:39] * auronandace finds it amazing that people don't realise gnome2 is abandoned [09:39] sounds good [09:39] diverdude: Still... tell me what's written there [09:39] AMD Athlon(tm) Neo X2 Dual Core Processor L325 [09:39] the-erm: the problem with it is, it wouldn't surprise me if in 3-4mo, it is no longer supported or updated.. thats what happens with small projects like that. [09:39] whats the diff between running live session from usb and dvd ? and which is better ? [09:39] Then run xfce4. [09:39] minimec: and memore 1.7 GB [09:40] memory [09:40] diverdude: Ok. That should be 64bit capable. Let me verfy that to be sure. [09:40] hello [09:40] It's a pretty decent windows manager. [09:40] the-erm: thus the suggestions he received [09:40] huh so now i forced to use Windows [09:40] my Bambo pen works the best with MyPaint [09:40] ZOmBIENiNGA: this channel is not the place to rant [09:40] Fyodorovna: wait a second.... that command actually returned nothing O_o [09:40] * KM0201 sighs [09:40] very well [09:40] whats the diff between running live session from usb and dvd ? and which is better ? [09:40] ZOmBIENiNGA: you honestly can't use xfce? [09:40] ZOmBIENiNGA: choose anything you like [09:41] i just hate to format my hard drive [09:41] myhero: my personal opinion, the USB might be *slightly* faster.. but not enough to really get in a twist about. [09:41] hoshi411, copy and paste dpkg --get-selections > installed-software [09:41] any way i will give xfce a try [09:41] diverdude: OK. You can go for 64bit, as I expected... [09:41] No idea about this problem? http://xerent.lokalen.org/incoming/ubuntuinstall.jpg [09:41] Fyodorovna: I did but nothing was returned [09:42] km0201: yeah i also think usb is faster but apart frm that any other change ? [09:42] It's ok to feel the way you feel. I know how you feel I was happy with KDE3 ran it for years, then they started KDE4 moved to Gnome2, now Unity, and Gnome3. So I use xfce4. [09:42] kobiluruz: then you go to the view menu and at the bottom you have the several option to choose from [09:42] minimec: great, thx :) [09:42] I am running server 12.04 in VM and for some reason it's not bringing up the 2nd nic automaticly what do I do wrong? [09:42] Fyodorovna: but if I type 'dpkg --get-selections ' alone, i actually do get a list [09:42] why isnt my terminal showing up in unity launcher? [09:42] hoshi411, did you look in home for a package installed-software [09:42] myhero: not that i've ever noticed... i've done a lot of installs from both.. they're essentially identical to me [09:42] Fyodorovna: I see... that's what that carrot was there for > :p [09:43] thank you [09:43] xerent: that picture is horrible, what is the problem? [09:43] diverdude: Here is some datasheet about your CPU http://www.google.ch/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=amd%20athlon(tm)%20neo%20x2%20dual%20core%20processor%20l325%2064bit&source=web&cd=3&ved=0CEYQFjAC&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amd.com%2Fpl%2FDocuments%2F47413A_Dual_Core_BGA_brief_PDF.pdf&ei=EV6eT465CIySOrqT3PsB&usg=AFQjCNHviURQwIA2etyS2OuooULrlmyP7g&cad=rja [09:43] KM0201: the window system seems all jumbled [09:43] km0201: i meant not install but runnng live session coz in it only one will notice speed ? [09:44] myhero: also, you can write to the usb [09:44] probably something to do w/ your graphicschipset.... what is it? [09:44] uronandace: yea rght [09:44] myhero: then you'll want to use USB, as you can set up a persistent setup, and save changes [09:44] km0201: yea [09:44] seems kinda silly to "always" use a live cd/usb though [09:44] Intel Atom Z5xx / SCH US15W --nothing fancy [09:44] Fyodorovna: is there anyway to run this list into aptitude and get it to install all this on another sysstem? possibly? [09:45] or would I need to format it [09:45] Unable to hear sound via Inbuilt Speakers !!!!!! [09:45] taking out all the line breaks etc [09:45] myhero: is that some sort of tablet? [09:45] gaelfx: hey dude any idea why the installer is giving the error ? [09:45] hi, I would like to delete/remove/disable Unity's top bar/panel (I want to keep the launcher at the left and run gnome-panel with bottom classic panel). I've done a lot of investigation on Google but haven't found the solution. Could you help me please? [09:45] km0201: yea it is kind of silly.....coz every change made is lost everytime its booted..!!!\ [09:45] myhero: so why noot install? [09:46] hardy89_: have you installed pavucontrol? or perhaps the mixer? [09:46] Hi all ! How can I update my icon pack WITHOUT logout please ? [09:46] the-erm : wat is it ??? Have No idea. [09:46] !sound | hardy89_ [09:46] hardy89_: 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. [09:46] no its laptop.....thing is my windows crashed so i took out hdd for recovery so now a days m going for live session linux...!! [09:47] hardy89_: it's pulse-audio's controller. [09:47] Gosset_Inofensiu: Best way is probably to start a 'gnome classic' session and use the unity2d-launcher in combination with the gnome-panel. [09:47] hardy89_: what version of ubuntu are you using? [09:47] km0201 : 12.04 LTS [09:47] Gosset_Inofensiu: install xfce4, it'll be easier to configure that way. [09:47] Hello, I upgraded from Ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04 LTS !!! Now i m unable to here sound. While turning ON my laptop I do here Ubuntu Theme Music but I m not able hear any sound while playing Songs or Videos. I do here sound when I connect external Speakers.

I [09:47] minimec, thanks [09:47] once i recover data then i'll install linux not windows this time..!! [09:48] the-erm: how to install it ? [09:48] Gosset_Inofensiu: There are even people using the launcher with gnome shell http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gnuAkXW5Rs [09:48] is there some way to start the ubuntu installer in "safe mode"? [09:48] hardy89_: then yeah, i would install pavucontrol and try tweaking the settings sudo apt-get install pavucontrol [09:48] wow thanks minimec again [09:48] hardy89_: sudo apt-get install pavucontrol [09:48] xerent: please define "safe mode" [09:48] the-erm: it's probably something simple [09:48] km0201 : Let me try intalling it. [09:48] km0201: how is 12.04 ?\ [09:48] but minimec, the launcher in gnome shell has HUD ? [09:49] the-erm: thx 4 suggestion [09:49] lol i can't ever get packages from Software center cuz i out dated [09:49] xerent, you can use the alternate image, that will install in text mode [09:49] Ubuntu is piss me off [09:49] ogra_: that sounds reasonable [09:49] myhero: honestly, as a long time hater of Unity... i'm really impressed, i might actually stick w/ it rather than going back to lxde [09:49] ZOmBIENiNGA: then use a supported release [09:49] ZOmBIENiNGA: do you have a support question? you've been told several times you are using an unsupported release, upgrade [09:49] km0201: sounds great [09:49] ZOmBIENiNGA: the support timescale has always been clear [09:49] Gosset_Inofensiu: I don't know how HUD is integrated in the session. I have no idea ;) [09:49] !release | ZOmBIENiNGA [09:49] ZOmBIENiNGA: 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 [09:49] i'll definately give it a try [09:49] xerent, though if the desktop image has issues with graphics for you, the final install (even when coming from the alternate image) might too [09:49] well i'll try it thanks [09:50] LinuxMonkey: that's not how twinview works [09:50] is there a disctro that give allways a support ? [09:50] Can someone help me to apply my icon theme without logout please ? [09:50] ZOmBIENiNGA: please take your rants/discussion elsewhere [09:50] ZOmBIENiNGA: use a rolling release distro and stay up to date [09:50] km0201: how to backup install packages so as to use them afterwards in newer live session or install on other machine ? [09:50] ogra_: init complains about EDID checksums, so I can try to reconfigure xorg.conf with noedid options, but I need an installation for that [09:50] I am running server 12.04 in VM and for some reason it's not bringing up the 2nd nic automaticly what do I do wrong? [09:51] ZOmBIENiNGA: Archlinux [09:51] LinuxMonkey: sorry, my typo [09:51] myhero: to my knowledge, there is no way to do that on a live cd, it would be a pain [09:51] Archlinux ? === recon69_lap is now known as recon_lap [09:51] xerent, ah, yeah then alternate should help [09:51] LTS ? [09:51] ZOmBIENiNGA: It's a rolling release ditro [09:51] ZOmBIENiNGA: LTS is supported for 5 years [09:51] ZOmBIENiNGA: if it's any consolation, 12.04 has mypaint 1.0.1, and it is LTS (supported for 5yrs) [09:51] ZOmBIENiNGA: no distribution is going to give you support if you refuse to upgrade [09:51] 5 years ??? [09:51] nice [09:52] km0201: then everytime i'll have to install packages n that wil be wastage of bandwidth [09:52] no one told me that [09:52] Hi Friends !i am facing a very rare problem .I upgrade the ubuntu to 12 ls and now i can not able to print nothing through cable connection but i can do it through the wireless . When i am connecting the cabe it seems that the date is transferring but it stopped by the computer i changed 3 different printers and both i face the same problem . Please advice i need your helps because i am trying to get help for 2 days no answer [09:52] ZOmBIENiNGA: That's the principle of LTS release ;) [09:52] myhero: well i don't know what more you expect, a live install, is a live install... thats what its designed to do (clear changes when you reboot) [09:52] i'm downloading Xubuntu 12.04 [09:52] i will see how its well work to me [09:52] myhero: you can use a package like apt-catcher-ng to cache the packages. It's basically a proxy server. [09:53] so far i like 12.04. once the unity is removed. [09:53] the-erm: that would be a PITA though. [09:53] km0201: ok...then whats the general ordnary method to backup installed packages...will try that only..!!! [09:53] nlici: you have not posted any details of your issue. what printer makes/models, what "wired" (usb or ethernet), what wireless (wifi or bluetooth), etc [09:53] Is gnome 3 iintegrated by default to precise p ? [09:53] How to add user group of Virtualbox in 12.04? [09:53] ZOmBIENiNGA: xubuntu was the one i choose instead of unity, still has configurable desktop [09:53] KM0201: apt-catcher? or gentoo/arch? [09:53] http://opensource.com/life/12/4/liberated-pixel-cup-proving-potential-free-culture-and-free-software-game-development [09:53] myhero: you can try what the-erm suggested, but thats gonna be a pain, i'm not sure what on earth you're trying to do, but you're making it harder oon yourself. [09:53] Kriss3d: i've forced myself to use unity in 12.04, it isn't as bad as i thought it would be [09:53] well, both..lol the-erm [09:54] www.virtualbox.org have been fall >_> [09:54] auronandace: same.. i've actually come to kind of like it the last couple of days... and i was kicking and screaming when gnome 2.dx got the boot [09:54] ZOmBIENiNGA: it's been down a few days.. [09:54] Is gnome 3 iintegrated by default to precise p ? [09:54] nlici: Seems to be a problem with the USB HUB (gessing you have USB printers). When you plug the printer, check the last 5-10 lines of 'dmesg' in a console. It should give you some info about how the device is recognized by the system. [09:54] auroandace well i like to work with my linux. not just install and go facebook & youtube.. but thats the beauty of linux.. you always have a second choise [09:54] km0201: basically i m trying to backup the installed packages so as to install them afterwards like u do when u wanna install on other machine offline... [09:55] its nice by them huh XD [09:55] z3bra: ofcourse, since unity is gnome3 [09:55] i tried samsung 3200 printer which was working before the upgrade , i tried brother printer , i tried hp 4500 as well it seems that data transfer is done but on the status up it seems like it is stopped . I am using now 4500 hp wireless and it is printing ONLY WITHOUT cable [09:55] ZOmBIENiNGA: can you please stop the offtopic running commentary? [09:55] ocean no its not [09:55] oCean: Sorry, i mean, gnome-shell [09:55] Kriss3d: it is [09:55] sorry [09:55] !unity [09:55] Unity is the default UI since Ubuntu 11.04. Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. For a GNOME 2-like experience, see !notunity [09:56] its a shell for gnome3, it isn't gnome3 itself [09:56] there is gnome-shell which is gnome 3 which can be made into looking alot like gnome 2 [09:56] Haha, then I was not wrong \o/ [09:56] got two bloody huge bugs that dont seem to be fixed though, my network manager crashes regularly and requires a reboot, and any usb drive attached causes booting to hang [09:56] Hello everyone, I'm trying to get the function key to work for brightness settings on an Asus K53SD laptop, on 12.04. I tried a lot of tweaks, none of them work. any suggestions ? Thanks [09:56] nlici: are you using a usb hub? [09:57] myhero: here's a post about backing-up your installed packages. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=819396 From what I'm reading it probably wouldn't be that hard to put it on an external drive of some sort. [09:57] Then, unity is the only DE on pangolin ? [09:57] z3bra: the default desktop (unity2d is there too) [09:57] z3bra: not really, you can install others from the repos.. [09:57] the-erm: thnx will look at it... [09:57] z3bra: but it is trivial to install gnome-shell or any other desktop [09:57] KM0201: i said 'default' ^^ I know I can ^^ [09:58] z3bra: there is also lxde, xfce, kde, gnome-shell, awesome, ratpoison, etc [09:58] i have created a new user and gave him admin rights. but in "language support" the "install new language" option is gray. any ideas? [09:58] z3bra: i guess i missed default, then yes, it is default in 12.04 (just as it was in 11.10, and 11.04) [09:58] Okay, thx ;) [09:58] z3bra: if you want a different one as "default", try xubuntu, kubuntu or lubuntu [09:59] Oh ! Does someone know how to set ratpoison as the default WM in unity or gnome-shell ? [09:59] Instead of metacity [09:59] and the system is still asking me for the first users password [09:59] the-erm: ur link looks usefull...will look at it and be back if any problems...thnx n 2 km0201 also.... [09:59] z3bra: you can't set it as the default IN unity or gnome-shell as ratpoison *replaces* unity or gnome-shell [09:59] DarwinSurvivor: don't worry, if I want another one, I will manage changing it ^^ [10:00] z3bra: you *might* be able to run it with gnome3, but I have no idea if that would even work... [10:00] DarwinSurvivor: Ratpoison is a Window manager [10:00] Not a desktop environnement [10:00] z3bra: i know, i've used it (and its derivative stumpwm) [10:00] exit [10:01] z3bra: use live CD's to check out your options, would not recommend multi-changes to your live install [10:01] z3bra: actually, I'm not sure if ratpoison IS in pangolin, since it's been discontinued and replaced by stumpwm [10:02] DarwinSurvivor: Arf, because on Archlinux forum, or elsewhere, I rode someone that had RP as his WM insinde unity [10:02] i have created a new user and both of my users have admin rights now. however while logged in with the second user ubuntu still asks for the password of the first user to install apps etc [10:02] hi everyone === xazax is now known as Guest25552 [10:03] Maybe I'd better use i3 then... [10:03] z3bra: well, you may be able to use stumpwm with parts of unity (launcher, panel, etc). [10:03] just a quick question. [10:03] z3bra: the best way to find out is to try it! [10:03] I'm running ubuntu 12 latest version from WUBI on my windows machine [10:03] 5GB install [10:03] DarwinSurvivor: precise upgrading actually ;) [10:03] just having a problem i installed Cairo Dock and now i can only see the desktop if I set CairoDock on login [10:04] i cant get the stock unity dock etc [10:04] hey, tonight I was updating and the updater crashed. It says links broken, partial upgrade. [10:04] is there any way to get this working again? [10:04] DarwinSurvivor: But as i'm on my pro laptop, I prefer being sure of what I do :P [10:04] z3bra: install ubuntu in virtualbox, then you can save the state and try a whole BUNCH of configs and just roll back each time without worrying about it [10:05] DarwinSurvivor: I'll if I find the time ;) [10:05] guys, i've this error on boot intel_dsm_platform_mux_info error mux info call failed [10:06] 'sudo do-release-upgrade -d' does not work on my 10.04 server install. Any ideas why? [10:06] But actually, upgrade is locking apt-get, I'm felling naked xD [10:06] how do you fix a broken update? [10:06] jabr: did you apt-get update before you tried that? [10:07] the-erm: yes [10:07] I got nothing. [10:07] I am running server 12.04 in VM and for some reason it's not bringing up the 2nd nic automaticly what do I do wrong?

[10:08] paulus68: please post a screenshot of virtualbox's network config page, as well as a pastebin of "ifconfig" from the guest machine [10:10] i am inserting a usb key and ubuntu think its read only....but its not. whats going wrong? [10:10] Hi Guys [10:10] diverdude: it could be that the usbkey has "worn out" [10:10] diverdude: can you write new files to it from another machine? [10:10] DarwinSurvivor: it's vmware if that's the same for you [10:10] drussell: no...works elsewhere [10:11] diverdude: ahh, in that case, not sure what you're seeing [10:11] paulus68: ok, post a screenshot/whatever of vmware's virtual network adapter page/output/whatever [10:11] diverdude: I have seen flash memory go read only when it's at the end of its life [10:11] diverdude: chances are it was uncleanly removed. Unmount it and fsck /dev/sd** [10:11] I am been trying to install apache2 and getting the test page work and it did work..but if I am followng http://tracmor.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/INSTALL to install tracmor and access http://localhost/tracmor/index.php it simply download the page and not display the page === mimor is now known as mimor_away [10:12] L3top: i think thats more correct [10:12] i have a problem with the DM: when i start, there is the login-screen from the gdm, not from the lightdm, which is standard right now... how can i solve this prob? [10:12] What should be the reason of page when access being downloaded and not displayed on the screen [10:12] diverdude: sounds likely, good luck === mimor_away is now known as mimor [10:12] linuxfreaker: you need to change the apache config to render pages with a php extension using php [10:13] acicula: Any change in httpd.conf under /etc/apache2 [10:13] acicula: Is it under site-available? [10:14] acicula: Which file I need to change or add php extension to? [10:14] man this is hard to use [10:14] how do i uninsstall cairo [10:14] what's the difference between running: 'cd /usr/port/some/port && make install clean' and 'cd /usr/port/some/port; make install clean' ? [10:14] acicula: I can see one file called php5.load [10:15] acicula: But it only says LoadModule php5_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so [10:15] hi [10:15] does it only attempt to run the 'make install clean' if the first part evaluates to true? i.e. the chdir() returns 0 for success? [10:15] anev: with && the second command only runs if the first terminates without error [10:15] Suraj: greetings [10:15] foobArrr: ah, cheers [10:15] foobArrr: also, sorry, i had meant to direct that to #freebsd :) [10:16] My wireless adapter is not working in UBUNTU 12.04LTS [10:16] Hello, can anyone help me - I'm looking for an out of box ubuntu NAS ... know of any?

[10:19] Naemdar: av editor, or just a general av? [10:19] anti virus [10:19] oh, i thought you meant audio video [10:19] I think there is only clam [10:19] lol [10:19] !antivirus [10:19] Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus [10:20] Naemdar: avast has a decent linux antivirus app.. it's easy to install, but unless you're scanning things before passing them to Windows users, it's more or less useless. [10:20] I will be passing the files to my windows machine and by proxy shared over to my ps3 [10:21] windows hd rather [10:21] With .desktop files not needing +x I'm surprised someone hasn't tried to create a linux virus. [10:21] then i'd probably lookk at avast, it seems to be the most robust to me... (i never really got clam to work properly) [10:21] hi all, can someone point me to a guide to how to setup 12.04 with full disk encryption? [10:21] does anybody know how to change the transparency settings in terminal, to show the desktop?, and not the uppermost window? [10:21] ps, home folder encryption is useless [10:21] what about clamav :P [10:21] thanks [10:21] thank you I will check that out. [10:21] Can anybody help me? I need manual to install Windows in Ubuntu 12.04 by using Virtualbox [10:22] KM0201: clamav works for me. I use it to scan all my email. [10:22] anyone know much about ubuntu 12s login screen [10:22] the-erm: i'm nt saying it doesn't work, i just never could get it to work.. could never get it to update [10:22] can clam scan incoming files as they come in? [10:22] (but thats been ages, i admit) [10:22] the-erm: a "virus" is malware that infects other computers with little to no user intervention (using exploits, etc). malware has existed for YEARS (ex: fork-bomb).

Let me put it differently, Macs are just getting some attention, and they are quite a monoculture. [10:24] Naemdar: You are better off scanning client side with eset nod32 or kaspersky. avast will catch more than clam, but if it is of real concern, you should purchase a good av win side [10:24] Darwin4Ever: oh, didn't notice [10:24] DarwinSurvivor: that's not really what a virus in the strict sense is though, a virus is a program that replicates [10:24] oCean: apache2 was already there . All I installed php5 and MysQL through apt-get [10:24] Hey! Can flash projects be done on ubuntu? If so, could you point me in the right direction to get started?

[10:25] linuxfreaker: after the a2enmod, have you restarted apache2?

[10:27] ive installed turkish language and placed it on top via drag drop but the user interface and all is still english after relogin [10:28] linuxfreaker: are you sure the apache2 config is a normal/regular ubuntu install/config? Because it would suffice to a2enmod php5 and a restart [10:28] linuxfreaker: are the Include directives in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf? (such as Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/) [10:28] linuxfreaker: like I said "sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5" will install mod_php for apache. [10:28] linuxfreaker: also, check the error_log e.g. tail /var/log/apache2/error_log [10:29] the-erm: the mod is already installed and enabled [10:29] oh ok [10:29] linuxfreaker: There doesn't appear to be anyone here experienced with tracmore.

[11:09] ogra_: Are you sure that's the right way round? Because I installed with the minimal CD, and used the tasksel in that... [11:09] cool so the worst possible scenario I have to redo the install for linux, not a big deal. I will just learn more about he process. I love this os it is a constant learning experience for me. [11:10] Darael, yes, thats what we use to create the images [11:10] I just now discovered irc.ubuntu.com is freenode. No wonder nickserv kept messing me up: I had irc.ubuntu.com and irc.freenode.net as separate accounts inside pidgin. [11:10] DoctorPepper: if you have ppas installed remove them before upgrading [11:10] good call auronandace. [11:10] Darael, (though we only use apt-get at creation time, not sure, tasksel might have a bug in that regard) [11:10] heyho, just wanted to drop a comment.. :) it is impossible, to install precise final on a system on sdaX, while sdb is a locked drive the setup tries to acces the locked drive... after 6 to 7 minutes i stopped the try, unlocked sdb via reboot and successfully installed to sda.... you can see ti here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hg9rtpnh9to5ljk/Install_SSD.mp4 [11:11] ogra_: Hang on.

[11:11] the installer gives error every time i try to install [11:11] installer error is "Internal Error" , any ideas ? [11:11] Darael, no, tasksel and aptitude are two totally different things [11:12] Hopefully be back online tomorrow, when the new mobo, processor and ram arrives. *crosses fingers* [11:12] pratz, you can try alternate CD, and if you dont feel anoyed by shell installs, the mini iso [11:12] ogra_: Yes, and tasksel calls aptitude. I know, because I had a whole episode on amd64 using tasksel because of the aptitude multiarch bug. [11:12] aptitude is an alternative system to apt-get ... using separate DBs etc [11:12] okay, so i do ubunt-bug ubiquity, once i'm at home again [11:12] Darael, well, then you might face an aptitude issue [11:13] i know for sure the apt-get based task install sets everything to automatic [11:13] (else all ubuntu images woudl end up with the manual flags for all packages :) ) [11:14] txomon|home: from where can i download mini iso ?? [11:14] how do I add an app I extracted to my home folder to appear on unity app lens? [11:14] My reading of the aptitude manual suggests that /anything/ pulled in as a dependency should be marked as automatic, even though it prompts to confirm the additional installs. I also understood that more recent versions of aptitude and apt-cli used the same database for such things. [11:14] !minimal | pratz [11:14] pratz: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [11:14] * ogra_ cant help on aptitude, sorry ... we dont use it anywhere in ubuntu usually [11:15] Darael, stop using aptitude and use apt-get [11:15] txomon|home: dude i do not have internet connection while installing [11:15] ogra_: That's what I /thought/ was the case, but apt-cache depends tasksel shows "Depends: aptitude" [11:15] pratz, so use Alternate cd [11:16] mini iso + minimal packets == alternate iso [11:16] Darael, right, as i said above, might be a bug in aptitude [11:16] txomon|home: The issue is that tasksel uses aptitude, and that tasksel is in the text-mode installer, not that I'm using aptitude myself. [11:16] txomon|home: what is difference between the normal and alternate cd ? [11:16] pratz, alternate + no-shell gui == normal [11:16] !alternate [11:16] 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 [11:16] What are you using these days instead of aptitude? (curious) [11:16] Hy guys! Do you know anything about the issue with vsftpd and Ubuntu 12.04? [11:17] beata, apt-get [11:17] If I set the folders chmod to a-w ( or anything that allows write ), then I can’t connect. [refusing to run with writable root inside chroot()] [11:17] If I set it to have no write access, then I can join, but for what? I have no write access. [11:17] Oh, right. ;) [11:17] !apt-get [11:17] APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Adept (KDE) or !KPackageKit (KDE) [11:18] txomon|home: I'm fully familiar with apt-get, I just wish the alternate (and minimal) CDs would use it instead of aptitude (although I can see the use of the latter for the "manual package selection" option. [11:18] Darael, I discourage you to use that [11:19] for me it always gives problems === J2 is now known as J2|QK [11:19] txomon|home: I /don't/ use the "manual package selection" option.

[11:21] As for my original question, what I was after was not a way of cloning my package list but of getting a list of all the manually-installed packages that weren't dependencies of anything, so I could get rid of things that I no longer needed but that "apt-get autoremove" wouldn't see. [11:21] Darael, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/livecd-rootfs/+bug/424643 (pretty pld bug, feel free to drop into #ubuntu-installer if you know a solution :) ) [11:21] Launchpad bug 424643 in livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu) "fresh Ubuntu install marks all packages as manually installed" [Medium,Confirmed] [11:21] lucian: sorry, i tend to use pidgin [11:21] s/pld/old/ [11:21] auronandace: i might have to do that, i guess [11:21] hello all [11:22] one question [11:22] hi how can I easly update my php 5.3.2 to 5.3.11? Ubuntu 10.04 lts [11:22] !latest | Rar9 [11:22] Rar9: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. [11:22] Darael, the best usually is to do it yourself. you can take all the manually selected ones, and filter the not real ones [11:22] currently i am working some code based on opencl. I want to use my favor IDE geany to deal with them but I dont how [11:23] ubottu what about 5.3.10? [11:23] I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [11:23] who know how to configure geany to work with opencl. It should as sample as gcc -lOpenCL hellow.c [11:24] auronandace what about 5.3.10? [11:24] txomon|home: I know - that's what I'm doing, in conjunction with "aptitude why" (if you can give me an apt-get or apt-cache equivalent, that'd be great, incidentally), I was just hoping for something involving a little less manual effort. [11:24] Rar9: same applies, you did read what ubottu wrote? [11:24] Darael, apt-cache rdepends [11:25] or depends [11:25] [ ·~ txomon|home·~ ] - ! [11:25] Lucasho, ? [11:25] Rar9: The whole point is that the version of a package in any given Ubuntu release is likely to be constant. See if it's in backports, or a ppa, or a newer release, or compile it yourself (in descending order of preference). [11:25] [ ·~ txomon|home·~ ] - como estas viejo ?

[11:26] Lucasho: this is a support channel, please take chit-chat to PM or #ubuntu-offtopic [11:26] txomon|home: Not the same; aptitude why gives results based on what else is installed, apt-cache (r)depends just gives a dependency list, which is /much/ more effort to work out. [11:26] hmm, telepathy-mission control keeps crashing now [11:27] Well, I know where to find libapt; I suppose I could always write it myself. [11:28] Darael, well, the "right" way to install a task is apt-get install taskname^ (note the caret) ... and i actually thought tasksel uses that in the backend since a while ... i might be wrong though [11:28] (someone in #ubuntu-installer might know though) [11:28] ogra_: Maybe it does in Precise. It certainly doesn't in Oneiric. [11:29] hey, i've got a problem. I believe one of my display config files has become orphan'd and my recovery mode won't display anything.

What are you actually trying to achieve? === Wicet|2 is now known as Wicet [11:56] TomLM: A "sudo killall wpa_supplicant" should do it if you're absolutely sure that's what you want, but may not be the best course. [11:56] Dareal, I need to run "airdrop" to see if i can bypass my own network's security. [11:56] And thanks. [11:57] If it's running, though, it's probably doing so as a result of something else. Have you stopped network-manager? [11:57] It booted itself up. :S [11:57] Nope. [11:57] TomLM: Might want to do that, then. "sudo stop network-manager". [11:57] Darael, i mean orphan files. is that possible? or am i thinking of orphan'd processes? [11:58] TomLM: Don't forget to "sudo start network-manager" when you're done, or your networking applet will stop working until you do (or until you reboot) [11:58] Darael, Thanks it worked! :) [11:58] isent it sudo service SERVICVENAME start or similer.. [11:59] brb [11:59] ntern0t [11:59] bookpage: I'm sorry, my reference to deborphans was my own problem (finding orphaned packages). I don't think I can help with yours. [12:00] hi, I get this when starting eclipse after 12.04 update: Application "org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench" could not be found in the registry. [12:00] Is the Unity Shell open source? Looking at the contribute page I didn't immediately see information about it. I just want to figure out how to contribute patches to it and also to find its sources and review them. I have to get it working better for laptops/desktops and multiple monitors and talk to the devs of it etc. [12:03] hi all [12:03] ! [12:04] howdies [12:04] z3bra: Greetings. Don't mean to sound rude, but this is the support channel. If thou'dst like to chat, please join #ubuntu-offtopic. If thou hast a question, of course, feel free to ask. [12:05] Darael: maybe I join to help others, but I'm quite polish ;) [12:05] thou art polish [12:05] Hi ambiance the in gnome classic is white now is it a bug ? === ubuntu is now known as myhero [12:06] troulouliou_dev, theres some quirk that makes the menus background black or white dependong on how they were called i read. [12:06] troulouliou_dev that's radiance, ambiance is black [12:06] troulouliou_dev, the webupd8 site has a bit of a work around for it - if thats the issue [12:06] I installed 12.04 and when I run eclipse, there is no entry in launcher and it does not show up in alt+tab [12:07] eclipse always seem to be weird. ;) wonder why that is. [12:07] i made a backup of installed packages with aptoncd....but i didnt burn it instead i havethe backup.iso so now if i fresh install then how to restore packages from this backup.iso assuming that if its a fresh install then there wil not be aptoncd installed ? [12:07] for ubuntu cloud, is the graphics processing done on the server or the client's machine? [12:07] l3top: i am here now to ask [12:07] Dr_willis, i have it black on one laptop and white on mine , guess it is a bug will check the site [12:07] Dr_willis, Any known workaround for this? [12:08] is default "umask" value for ubuntu 12.04 "0002" ? [12:08] hi folks, how good is the hardware detection for Macbook Pro in 12.04? [12:08] i made a backup of installed packages with aptoncd....but i didnt burn it instead i have the backup.iso so now if i fresh install then how to restore packages from this backup.iso assuming that if its a fresh install then there wil not be aptoncd installed ? [12:09] myhero: you can loop mount the iso... or burn it... [12:09] l3top: loop means what ? [12:09] myhero open aptoncd and choose restore [12:10] if i fresh install then there will not be aptoncd installed [12:10] I installed Ubuntu 12.04 on my laptop, and am now trying to get it to run. In the grub menu, if I load it normally, all I get is a black screen. In order for it to boot successfully, I have to edit the menu item and add 'nomodeset'. With this, Ubuntu boots up. [12:10] Is there a fix for this, so that I don't have to constantly add the nomodeset? I tried to install the proprietary drivers but I still had the same problem [12:10] myhero: just install it before retriving your packages [12:10] chandru_in, i just recall eclipse being weird even on the 11.10 release with similer issues. I imagine its due to how its being called/ran as a bash script calling a java app. but i never use the app [12:10] ok [12:11] mount how to install .deb packages ? [12:11] anyone can help me? [12:11] acer-ubuntu, having the same problem as you atm, it's so sad. [12:11] where can i get a virtual drive mounting package for ubuntu [12:11] acer-ubuntu, install the drivers for your video card, or try adding the nomodeset to the default optiuons in /etc/default/grub (i think) [12:11] myhero: man mount [12:11] Dr_willis, what if the drivers are already installed after using 12.04beta? [12:12] acer-ubuntu: Edit yout /boot/grub/menu.lst [12:12] l3top: ok [12:12] Dr_willis,: where to find driver for my video card, i didnt find it [12:12] Daiz|, for my nvidia system. i had to use nomodeset untill i got the drivers installed. [12:12] acer-ubuntu: And add "nomodeset" at the end of your entry [12:12] why am i only able to change the lang symwide but not per user?ste [12:12] does grub2 use menu.lst? [12:12] z3bra, ubuntu uses grub2 now... [12:12] *systemwide [12:12] can backups of one version will be allowed to install on other version of ubuntu like backups of 11.10 on 12.04 [12:12] acer-ubuntu: what GPU? [12:12] Dr_willis, It's a laptop with integrated intel atom, I can only boot to my second OS. [12:13] Dr_willis: my bad, reflex from my other distro ^^ [12:13] z3bra: nomodeset is bad view, looks like open program in safe mode [12:13] acer-ubuntu: did you look in /var/log/X.org.*.log? There might be a specific message. Usually I do some googling with those and find workarounds. [12:13] Daiz|, odd. My intel netbook works good with 12.04 [12:13] Dr_willis, it worked fine on beta, then after the final, boom black screen after logging in, and then the HDD got corrupted. [12:13] wadechandler: i dont understand, i am newbie [12:14] can backups of one version will be allowed to install on other version of ubuntu like backups of 11.10 on 12.04 ??? [12:14] Daiz|, no ideea then. check the bug reports perhaps maybe a known issue. [12:14] L3top: what is GPU? [12:14] My unity does not load at login? someone has this problem? [12:14] acer-ubuntu: lspci -nn | grep VGA [12:14] in a terminal acer-ubuntu [12:14] L3top: okay [12:14] Paste teh output here [12:14] the* [12:14] can backups of one version will be allowed to install on other version of ubuntu like backups of 11.10 on 12.04 ??? [12:15] Greetings [12:15] myhero: I would not expect much success with that. [12:15] l3top: how is 12.04 [12:15] L3top: this is what i get in terminal, 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2a42] (rev 07) [12:16] when you get a screen up, run a terminal, and then cd to /var/log and ls -lsda X*. Look through those files looking for error messages. If you have a really hard time with it, you can email me at online@wadechandler.com and be sure and attach your logs. I might be able to help. No promises...deps on what is in the logs. [12:16] 12.04 is awesome. Thank you, Mark! [12:16] acer-ubuntu: did you installed private pilots ? [12:16] marzata: ok [12:17] z3bra: what u mean private pilot ? [12:17] acer-ubuntu: apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel i965-va-driver libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri [12:17] acer-ubuntu: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel i965-va-driver libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri [12:17] L3top: i will try [12:17] L3top, will that work in the recovery console? [12:17] That's what I meant ^^ haha [12:17] 12.04 is awesome except for unity. On a laptop or desktop ... at least for this programmer ... it is less productive because of the whole left side of the screen biz and application window switching is a pain...i.e. I'm in one app and want to go to another app and a specific window...using only the mouse. [12:18] Other than that though I would love unity I think [12:18] Sorry... will what work Daiz|? [12:18] !nounity| wadechandler [12:18] wadechandler: 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 [12:18] L3top, the commands? I'm having the same problem as acerubuntu. [12:18] productivity & mouse? ;) [12:18] wadechandler i don't like/use Unity either [12:18] Daiz|: that was specific to his gpu. give me the output of lspci -nn | grep VGA [12:19] !xfce [12:19] Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME.

However, it boots and shows the purple screen for a short amount of time, before going black. If I boot in recovery mode, only half the screen is "usable" (lots of graphical artifacts). This last graphics mode was already present during installation, but I hoped it would fix itself after the installation. I've tried booting with nomodeset, but it didn't help. [12:20] That command doesn't even work L3top, I'm on lubuntu 11.10 [12:20] so in recovery Daiz|, apt-get install pastebinit then lspci -nn | grep VGA | pastebinit [12:20] Xubuntu Xfce is better or ubuntu Gnome ?

It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [12:20] myhero: yes [12:20] Yes it does Daiz|. Check spelling.

[12:20] myhero: different [12:21] Marzata: would use xfce, but right now there are things which hinder me such as QT/KDE applications don't blend in well. At least they didn't when I tried a few months back. [12:21] myhero: None of them is 'better', is a matter of preference or performance requirements on older systems [12:21] Does anyone have a great expenrience (or just managed to...) with changing metacity to another WM on 12.04 ? [12:21] myhero: *it is [12:21] L3top, 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation N10 Family Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:a011] [12:21] !anyone | z3bra [12:21] z3bra: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. [12:22] myhero: on the top of this, Xubuntu is much more stylish. [12:22] yes Daiz| same exact line. [12:22] Daiz|: sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel i965-va-driver libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri [12:22] Thanks. will try that when I get home. [12:22] marzata: ok thnx 4 advice...i'll try xubuntu 2 [12:22] myhero: I'd say, try both. I've tried Xubuntu while Unity was still a bit shitty (sorry). As of 12.04 , I switched back to Ubuntu. I've had similar great experiences with both Gnome in 12.04 (or Gnome 2 in the past) and the latest Xfce. [12:23] Darael: *In order to tell me which WM, if integration is good, if it was hard to manage, etc [12:23] Daiz|: wait... that isnt correct [12:23] L3top: it doesnt work, my laptop still blank, i should change it to nomodeset to see my latop [12:24] :( [12:24] Anyone on my laptop issue? [12:24] z3bra, what wm are you wanting to us4e exactly? [12:24] Daiz|: I forgot that you are on 11.10... that is the target version yes? [12:24] z3bra: I gathered, but still. Better to just ask that - eg "I'm looking for advice on replacing metacity on 12.04 - what should I replace with, and how easy is it?". It's amazing how much faster the answers roll in. [12:24] L3top, the line is correct, as I will boot up with 12.04LTS in recovery. [12:24] ThePendulum: could you repost? hard to find it in the stream [12:24] ThePendulum: what issue? [12:24] ThePendulum: thnx for advice.... [12:24] or am i wrong? [12:25] myhero: we migrated to Xubuntu last October, and we must say it is better then the old Ubuntu + Gnome2. [12:25] Dr_willis: my first choice go to openbox or ratpoison [12:25] wadechandler, Gnea: Yesterday, I installed Ubuntu on a laptop. However, it boots and shows the purple screen for a short amount of time, before going black. If I boot in recovery mode, only half the screen is "usable" (lots of graphical artifacts). This last graphics mode was already present during installation, but I hoped it would fix itself after the installation. I've tried booting with nomodeset, but it didn't help. === Lupinedk is now known as lupinedk [12:25] z3bra, if you install the openbox package it used to add a entry for 'openbox gnome' in the login screen menus.. not sure if it still does. [12:25] hi, simple-scan starts only if launched by root. Otherwise I get a segmentation fault (core dump) error. Any hint? [12:26] z3bra, you could always make your own custome session, or use the 'openbox' session it creates [12:26] I know they are completely opposed, but I like them a lot as standalone =) And I'd like to know if they can have a great integration with unity or gnome-shell [12:26] Dr_willis: I know, But I don't want to use them as standalone WM [12:26] l3top: i am back now, and my laptop still blank if i dont use nomodeset, is there any way to view my laptop such as regular? [12:26] acer-ubuntu: That is perplexing. I will have to check a couple of things [12:26] one moment [12:27] z3bra: gnome-shell pretty much /is/ a window manager, so no help there. Unity is rather too tightly tied to compiz-and-metacity, at a guess. [12:27] ThePendulum: I would look in /var/log/X*.log and see if anything jumps out. Usually will see messages with (EE) for error. [12:27] L3top: what is perplexing? [12:27] That you are having gpu issues with compiz with those drivers in place acer-ubuntu. [12:28] Darael: So no possibility of evolution/customization of unity or gnome-shell in that way...? :/ [12:28] L3top; i hope u get the answer soon :) [12:28] hello, Can I install Unity on kubuntu 12.04 [12:28] ? [12:28] ThePendulum: might help you track down something specific. Too, lspci and get your card. Then, do some googling to see if anyone else has the same issue with that specific card and 12.04. Usually how i find those type issues. Sometimes I take my X config file down to a minimum to get something that will load and then tweak it slowly on systems which have issues like that. Sometimes it will be one little thing that breaks it. [12:28] z3bra: Not AIUI. [12:28] wadechandler: Let me try that [12:28] AIUI ? [12:28] acer-ubuntu: lets try creating an xorg.conf [12:29] z3bra, unity is a compiz plugin.. and compiz is a window manager.. now unity-2d perhaps... [12:29] wielkifreeman: That's pretty much equivalent to running KDE apps on Ubuntu 12.04, so I don't see why not. [12:29] wadechandler: If I only knew what graphics card this thing uses [12:29] z3bra: As I Understand It. [12:29] wielkifreeman, don't choose one or the other two windowmanagers isbegging for trouble [12:29] L3top: how then? [12:29] Dr_willis: Oh yes true, I had forgotten it ^^ [12:29] oh my. why does my system tell me it might be in an unstable state? [12:29] Dr_willis: Considering z3bra mentioned replacing metacity, I assumed unity-2d from the start. [12:29] hi, simple-scan starts only if launched by root. Otherwise I get a segmentation fault (core dump) error. Any hint? [12:29] ThePendulum: just run lspci and you can find it. [12:29] from a terminal [12:30] i'm desperately spamming apt-get update dist-upgrade and things are happening. no idea if i'll be able to boot this system again [12:30] I thought unity-2d used mutter.. or was that gnome-shell... i get so confused === icubedajb123_ is now known as icubedajb123 [12:30] jthing: how is that? (asking for trouble) [12:30] gnome-shell use mutter [12:30] Dr_willis: Pretty sure that's gnome-shell. [12:30] wielkifreeman, In particular the 3D thin in unity is a issue. Maybe the 2D is less troblesome [12:30] OH YEAH !!! [12:30] Update finished ! [12:30] Let reboot then ^^ [12:30] we seem to be getting away from the 'window manager' vs 'file manager/desktop icon manager' type seperation we had in years past. [12:31] Dareal, jting I found this http://askubuntu.com/questions/127698/how-can-i-install-unity-in-kubuntu-12-04 and I would ask expert before install unity [12:31] wadechandler: It only returns the vendor, which is Intel it says (which I find strange) [12:31] acer-ubuntu: You will either need to stop lightdm or boot to a recovery console and type: Xorg -configure this will dump a file called xorg.conf.new in /home/username I believe... you will then cp /home/username/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf [12:31] if i see this bug: https://launchpad.net/bugs/798462 can I run some commands to be reasonably sure it got fixed?
