[00:00] tyler_d; back up & ready...... yay!!!! it show a connection now... [00:00] MoTec: i might be confused with another distribution, so how does passwd look like before making root's password? [00:00] Rexter: very good :) [00:00] hi people, is there any way to make unity buttos (in maximized windows) inherit the theme buttons instead of the light themes ones? [00:00] How do I set a printer to print "two-sided" by default? (The option for this is greyed out under "Printer Properties".) [00:00] MoTec: Ahhh okay.. as long as there's no accounts accessible with default PWDs.. ;) [00:00] hittt: root is in there.. but i think the password is randomied or something. the actual root account is not intended to be used interactiely [00:01] man this thing is fighting me on every level [00:01] tyler_d; conenction information is there now. looks all good. Should that be it? [00:01] kkrauss: you sudo to open that file , with whatever edtier you'll be using. [00:01] Rexter: I belive that was the goal, and you should be set :) === erenrich is now known as erenrich|away [00:01] sary: gksu [00:01] kkrauss: Are you on a date? .. Sounds like a date to me.. [00:01] sorry [00:01] olá [00:01] tyler_d; could you tell me what was the deal? why did that work? [00:01] sary: I am noob but not that noob, even with sudo i cannot do anything [00:02] MoTec, it is not randomized. just locked. [00:02] Rexter: you can manually configure your cards from that file, but once it notices that it is in there, it doesn't try to do a thing with network-manager... bypasses it [00:02] New gtk theme http://migre.me/95bLq [00:02] How do I set a printer to print "two-sided" by default? (The option for this is greyed out under "Printer Properties".) [00:02] Hello, please recommend a simple image editor that will do cropping and also convert tif to jpg [00:02] Rexter: so removing it allows the app(network-manager) to tak eit over [00:03] escott: thanks for the clarification [00:03] mdmkolbe: you need to have the correct hardware(printer to support duplex) then the drivers [00:03] kkrauss: am not even sure where are rying to open the file .. in he console ! [00:03] its the only way!!! [00:03] kkrauss: try what tyler_d posted . [00:03] RAHHHH this is fuckin getting annoying [00:03] sary: I am following the instructions on the page you sent me [00:03] if I run ulimit -n in a shell, is that only environment based setting? [00:03] kkrauss: what or where exactly are we [00:03] Switch to the console by using ctrl+alt+F1, or reboot and select recovery mode from the GRUB menu. [00:03] Open and edit xorg.conf like this: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf. [00:03] Find the line that says: Section "Screen" [00:03] Insert a new line that says Option "UseDisplayDevice" "DFP". [00:03] Save the file. If you had to restart into recovery mode, type reboot, otherwise restart your display using sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart. [00:03] kkrauss: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [00:04] funkster: hard limits vs soft limits are user specific(soft) or global (hard) [00:04] it says ri ght there, access console(which I cannot do) OR boot into recover mode. I did that and am now tryiong to edit the xorg.conf file [00:04] tyler_d; that's why the loopback was in there, wouldn't want the manager to handle the loopback. That must have got in there during the install... [00:04] but cant because its a read only file system [00:04] Does anyone know if there's a way to disable Unity and bring (at least something close) to the old window icon layout back? [00:05] !notunity | ultpkmnfan [00:05] ultpkmnfan: 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 [00:05] kkrauss: type `mv xorg.conf xorg.conf_failed` and then reboot `init 6` [00:05] tyler_d: there a way I can view the global hard limit? [00:05] tyler_d: I am able to print two-sided if I adjust the setting in the "print" dialog before each print, so the hardware/driver is not the problem. [00:05] how do i open a terminal with the crappy unity garbage? [00:05] alt-F2 finds it when i search for gterm [00:05] kkrauss: Sounds like your partition / disk is broken ! [00:05] but i can click it and enter all i want [00:05] ward_: Ctrl-Alt-t [00:05] it wont start.... [00:05] ward_, hit the windows key and type "terminal" [00:05] mdmkolbe, thanks [00:05] sary: that is highly unlikely [00:05] kkrauss: what is the output of sudo fdisk -l [00:06] ward; you know you don't have to use Unity, right? [00:06] kkrauss: okay. [00:06] tyler_d: I cannot do that, read only file system [00:06] Rexter, i prefer gnome 2 so no ubuntu anymore for me [00:06] funkster: I would simply cat limits.conf [00:06] what is the name of 12.04? [00:06] Rexter, i'm just using the livecd since i hve nothing else around [00:06] i hope its the last time i see this utter crap [00:06] thanks for the help, later [00:06] sary: what output are yo ulooking for? it shows my partitions etc? [00:06] kkrauss: reboot and hold down shift, then get to the reconfig or default... you can't fix this on a r/o file system [00:06] sary: there is a message table entries are not in disk order [00:07] Not happy with ubuntu 11.10 It hangs on "* Checking battery status [ OK ]" on boot and i can not do anything as i can not get to my files. [00:07] tyler_d: thats how I got here :( [00:07] Someone tell me how to fix this please. :') [00:07] I went to recovery console from grub, its the only thing that works, I cant boot the normal system [00:07] kkrauss: not the recovery from the grub menu === Granis` is now known as Granis [00:07] tyler_d: what do you want me to do then, i can only do recovery ofr normal boot [00:08] Wait, was that a bot that answered my question? That's...cool. Um, sorry to sound like a noob or whatever. [00:08] kkrauss: hold down shift, after the grub [00:08] also this fdisk -l seemes off I have partitions I shouldnt [00:09] mdmkolbe: I am sorry, I don't know enough about the printing engine within to help you out here :( [00:09] tyler_d: I held down shift and am at the grub menu [00:09] kkrauss: normal boot, enter, hold left shift [00:09] kkrauss: seems like the issue is much depper than you thoguht . [00:09] kkrauss: will bring you to a diff menu [00:10] Also, are there still appearance themes. Like, where in the settings do you select a theme for your window appearance like Clearlooks or something. Or was that removed? [00:10] still* [00:10] tyler_d: it didnt work [00:10] im back to square one [00:10] booted on a broken monitor I can barely see [00:10] kkrauss: so waht are you looking at please? [00:10] and even if could still couldnt do anything [00:10] d0h [00:10] im looking at ubuntu log in screen [00:11] seems fine, but now when I type my password [00:11] ultpkmnfan: that an info boot , correct . [00:11] kkrauss: tbh at this point, I would (personally) be installing lamp on ubuntu server [00:11] tyler_d: dude [00:11] kkrauss: get back to that point [00:11] tyler_d: this isnt going to be a server!! [00:11] ultpkmnfan: yes , this opions is still there. [00:11] kkrauss: then do alt-ctrl-shift F1 [00:11] tyler_d: this is why I got frustrated with you before!!!! this isnt the damn server! [00:11] tyler_d: I've tried that, the screen just goes black [00:11] yo [00:11] how do I reset X? [00:12] kkrauss: that will get you to a terminal... I know this is a pain in the *** [00:12] I know how to switch to the console, but it wont work [00:12] tyler_d: so its hung at that point.. you should see a login prompt at the top for root [00:12] or, well my pty7 or whatever the x env. shell is called doesn't respond [00:12] I see a mouse but that's all [00:12] Hi [00:12] whatever is causing my problem wont let me see a terminal either [00:12] so I want to restart gnome I guess [00:13] kkrauss did you install a video driver, and now you can't do anything? [00:13] Rexter: basically, I did it the right way through additional drivers [00:13] kkrauss: you have to get to it straight when it boots, but I am confused why you cannot see the restore menu... 1 second plz [00:14] I'll try killing Xor [00:14] oh that did it :) [00:14] whats blowing my mind is before I log into the desktop everything is fien but once I log in I lose most everyhting. I can still right click and create new folders etc, but cant open a terminal or switch to consoel === Telg is now known as Telgalizer [00:15] kkrauss: drop to shell before trying to log in please [00:16] already tried [00:16] I've a question [00:16] before I entered desktop password i switched to f1 [00:16] kkrauss; yea, I had that same issue on a Linux Mint box. I never did figure out how to fix it. It's like the desktop would freez visually, but would still be running underneith. [00:16] How do I prevent ubuntu from using ALT-[arrow] in tty1-6 ? [00:16] I need that for tmux === Telgalizer is now known as Telg [00:17] I can boot into recovery console [00:17] but cannot boot video faile safe mode [00:17] but when drop to shell, cant do anything because it says its a read only fiel system [00:17] kkrauss: while its doing the normal boot, drop to console [00:17] do you have permission to write? [00:17] tyler [00:17] how? [00:18] tyler_d; I think he'll need to boot with a live CD, and manually edit the video driver config files. [00:18] if I knew what I was doing [00:18] I wouldnt be here [00:18] Rexter: while its booting alt-ctrl F1 [00:18] Rexter: until it drops to the login prompt [00:18] kkrauss; NO....... if you knew what you were doing you'd be here helping the rest of us idiots.... right!!?? [00:19] lol [00:19] this is enfuriating because I didnt doa nything I wasnt supposed to [00:19] I did this through the additional drivers menu [00:19] it said it was a tested driver and just activate it for everything to work better [00:19] I was better off not freaking touching it! [00:19] I'm a newbie to linux , can you tell me how I use wine please [00:20] kkrauss nvidia 6100 ? [00:20] !wine | Sheldon420 [00:20] Sheldon420, please see my private message [00:20] kkrauss: once I had an issue like this. Here is some probably useless advice: remount the disk as rw [00:20] that did it for me [00:20] im trying to boot to the original installed kernel [00:20] but doubt its going to work [00:21] omg! [00:21] it freaking worked [00:21] -23 loaded the desktop properly and to the right monitor [00:21] kkrauss: lmao... now don't touch it [00:21] kkrauss: !! [00:22] wel thats what annoys me [00:22] how am I supposed to use my video card to its potential! [00:22] gizmo, see this http://wiki.winehq.org/HowTo [00:22] also I am wondering if sary was right because the system also seems to run slow [00:23] Sheldon20: thanks [00:23] kkrauss: : what do you mean about what sary was right? about what? [00:23] gizmo, Follow those instructions, and let us know if you have any specific issues. Also check out wine-hq's official IRC channel #winehq [00:23] when I did an fdisk -l [00:23] also heres a thing [00:23] im running -23 kernel now [00:24] form the previous version menu [00:24] but there is no updates that are needed [00:24] how do I make this the default?

I'm trying to enable multiple websites but all the websites I added on the /etc/hosts are not working. the browser only display the defaults site that come with apache2. Can anybody explain to me what I'm doing wrong? [00:29] whats weird is yI have my 84 gig ext4 partition for ubuntu, then there is my 61GB backup partition. Then there is a 3 gig extended thats shown as on top of my 3GB swap, then next to those is free space [00:29] no clue why the extended is there [00:29] kkrauss, the installer often puts the swap and / inside an extended in order to save primaries for other oses [00:30] so there is nothing wrong with my setup? except the free space which Ill just throw onto my primary [00:30] kkrauss, if you want to paste the output of sudo parted -l /dev/sda we can look at it, but there is nothing wrong with having an extended [00:30] odd, disk utility doesnt have an option to add the free space to primary [00:31] hold on escott im going to log into xchat from tthat machine [00:31] !paste | kkrauss [00:31] kkrauss: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic.

I'm trying to enable multiple websites but all the websites I added on the /etc/hosts are not working. the browser only display the defaults site that come with apache2.

[00:39] hi guys, i've got several problems in new laptop running 12.04, battery runout after 1hr insted of 6hr in win? === Guest73491 is now known as Rexter [00:39] locum: laptop-mode-tools [00:39] escott: and to be honest I am not sure how to add that space on linux anyway outside of install time. [00:39] So I have to add the argument radeon.audio=1 to my grub config is there a way to do that via default or grub.d so that I don't have to do it everytime the kernel updates? [00:39] locum: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Laptop_Mode_Tools [00:40] it wont be exact since thats an Arch wiki, but Archs documentation is the best- youll learn alot about powersaving from that page [00:40] Hi, I'm having problems getting my usb mic record as well as playback with another soundcard. help appreciated ? [00:40] GSF1200S, thx but i think you don't understand my problem [00:40] kkrauss, you could boot gparted and move partitions around, but it is time consuming because everything has to be copied. if you just want to add it to ubuntu you could create an ext4 on it and make it /home or perhaps /home/username/Music (something that will be roughly 12GB but won't grow) [00:41] sigh so many problems so little time [00:41] ay yi yi. All I want to do is install Blink. Can't for the life of me figure out how. [00:41] back in the day I would just sue partition magic [00:41] nothing like that these days? [00:41] GSF1200S, it's a brand new laptop, battery last 6hours in windows and just 1 in ubuntu 12.04 [00:42] in my case, it was GPU being on hardcore-mode all the time [00:42] the power-saving is sorted in newer kernels [00:42] there was a problem with early 3.x.x kernels [00:42] locum if you have a discrete graphics card and an integrated one? [00:43] but i mean, 6 to 1 is a very big jump for that [00:43] got 2, i5 quad core with embeded intel, and nvidia 1gb [00:43] locum: you said your battery runs out very quickly- thats what linux does when its not setup to save juice. You need to setup CPU frequency scaling, laptop-mode-tools, use intel powertop (if you have an intel proc) for power saving tips, make sure to kill any services you dont need, etc [00:43] locum: anything hogging CPU in your system monitor? [00:44] GSF1200S, just installed ubuntu i didn't see nothing [00:44] locum: what vid cards does you laptop have? Strictly intel or intel+ati or nvidia? [00:45] intel+nvidia [00:45] I asked this in the ubuntu-server channel, which may be wrong but... [00:45] I'm out guys. Have a great evening! [00:45] hey guys, i have a web app where I am encoding a video and uploading to a fileshare, I want to mount the drive locally, i have been using smbmount but I am getting permission denied, i can't seem to set the permissions, am i doing something wrong in the mounting? [00:46] locum: prolly one of the biggest reasons battery sucks is because in ubuntu the nvidia card is always on, where in Windows it is shut off and the intel card is used [00:46] GSF1200S, cpu1 4%, cpu2 10%, cpu3 10%, cpu4 10% [00:46] you need to investigate Bumblebee or something similar to control which card is switched on when- it may or may not work [00:47] oh hell with it, I'll find something else [00:47] GSF1200S, i'm new in linux [00:47] locum: ya, good luck. i have an alienware m11x with the same issues. it's the nvidia card running all the time. i wasn't able to resolve it so ended up just running ubuntu in a vm instead to do what i need to do with linux. [00:47] locum: you can also turn off the vid card in the bios (at the beginning of turning on the computer) [00:48] GSF1200S, MoTec this issue is only in ubuntu? [00:48] locum: any linux [00:48] hi! trying to troublehoot HDMI output not working... can anyone point me to modifying display stuff? i'm kinda new to linux [00:48] locum: we all are at one point :) Gonna have to learn a bunch of stuff- one of which is that hardware manufacturers often dont make linux drivers since their isnt money in it [00:49] dubrun: what video card? [00:49] Intel HD3000 on 2500K [00:49] GSF1200S, i now that i just installed ubuntu coz need to use google dev app center [00:49] locum: things are very possible to get setup well, but youre going to have to learn a new way :) [00:50] wee wees [00:50] vato_: Did you have a support question? [00:50] hi corey! [00:50] GSF1200S_: i.e. mobo, Asrock ASRock z68. Running Mythbuntu 12.04 , so it's paired down from standard ubuntu i imagine [00:50] i do! [00:51] locum: alright- youll have to investigate Optimus nvidia bumblebee for linux, or turn off the discrete card in your bios- that will get you to 4 hours right there (prolly). Doing the other things I mentioned will potentially get you better battery life than windows, potentially not [00:51] I have two graphics cards and I am running ubuntu. The graphics cards are "sli'd." Anyway -- Ubuntu wont let me one run continuous display. It makes 2 displays in Xinerama and one a separate X screen. How do I enable one continuous display my young chum? [00:52] GSF1200S_: BTW i ride a GSF600S :) [00:52] GSF1200S, ok thx i will check out bumblebee [00:53] dubrun: hmmm, I know how to do HDMI with an Nvidia card, but not an intel card, looking [00:53] dubrun: haha, really? Sweet man.. Love my 1200 :) [00:53] Corey [00:53] well how about video display at all ? all i get is a window called "display" [00:53] wheres my support bro [00:54] i don't have an /etc/X11/xorg.conf [00:54] (running XFCE) [00:54] dubrun: explain more please? You get a window where? Trying to figure out exactly what your issue is [00:55] yeah well when I boot up i get the UEFI display for a second, then it goes black and doesn't come back [00:56] so I know it CAN work. but the "display" window is in Applications > Settings > Display [00:56] vato_: it's not ubuntu that will not let you run one continuous display. It's the nvidia drivers. They do not support SLI very well. [00:56] hello. i'm using 12.04. when does gimp 2.8 will be available in the software center? [00:56] UEFI? Ive had the "going black" issue before.. [00:56] orly [00:56] GSF1200S, btw i'm running 64 bit [00:56] Is there some trick to getting Ubuntu to boot when all I get is a black screen immediately after hitting install/try on the cd screen? [00:56] rly [00:56] UEFI is the new BIOS. [00:57] Happens both with normal and alternate cds [00:57] Hello, I'm having trouble with grub2 on crunchbang 10, no matter what I do grub is only showing the first three entries on the /boot/grub.cfg, even through the it has 7 menu entries. [00:57] dubrun: thats what I feared, haha.. Not sure how that plays into things is I have the old fashioned bios :) [00:57] CoJaBo, mainly, wait. :) [00:58] !nomodeset | CoJaBo [00:58] CoJaBo: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter === amogorkon is now known as piratenagchat [00:58] xangua: Yeh, tried that too, usually nomodeset + noacpi + nolapic has fixed all issues [01:00] GSF1200S_: I'm sure UEFI doesn't matter. I had it working on 11.10 with no problems. [01:00] dubrun: have you tried using xrandr at all? [01:00] Any other ideas? === piratenagchat is now known as amogorkon [01:00] xrandr is the typical multi-monitor method (unless you use nvidia) [01:01] it says "RANDR extension is not present" [01:01] i think that might be my problem [01:01] dubrun: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xrandr [01:02] kkrauss: any progress! [01:02] boooh: software versions aren't changed after a release (general rule, firefox is a noteable exception) [01:02] I need to know how to get rid of old alsa files that are in the way of new ones [01:02] GSF1200S_: haven't used xrandr, does that ship with standard x64 12.04? i can almost guarantee whatever is the problem doesn't require new software [01:02] dubrun: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution [01:03] i got it up and running guys :D ty for your help [01:03] kkrauss: jus so that you know , i couldn't find any info about NVIDIA Corporation c51 (zhrgotvr ho 6100) (rev a2) [01:03] zykotick9: so i have to wait 12.10... :( [01:03] i just don't know linux enough to configure X. Or whatever XFCE runs [01:03] dubrun: the problem might BE the new software. The Display thing you see is likely a graphical frontend to xrandr [01:03] ah ok [01:03] all DE's use X at the moment [01:03] boooh: i guess, or compile, or check for a PPA [01:03] wayland is a way off [01:04] [01:04] zykotick9: thank you. [01:04] GSF1200S_: that X/config/resolution article doesn't mention HDMI at all [01:04] dubrun: unfortunately I cant give you a silver bullet because I run nvidia, so xrandr isnt how I setup my dual screens :( [01:04] Hello, anyone please suggest a simple image editor that will do cropping, and also will convert from tif to jpg [01:05] dubrun: Its more about getting the screen to work at all- HDMI is just a method to have another monitor (and sound).

[01:13] CoJaBo tried this?: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen.

[01:18] CoJaBo: do you happen to know what graphic card/model your macine have. [01:18] Not sure [01:19] GSF1200S_: lol all i want is SOME output. the only reason i can see anything at all is cause VNC is working [01:19] think its integrated, probably Intel.. [01:19] I didn't see a mention of dd in the link...let me dig in deeper..THANK YOU! [01:19] dubrun: i wish I could help man, but without being there its pretty hard especially since I dont use Intel [01:19] trying to download Poppy Linux... thus far, its never failed to bot [01:20] CoJaBo: Try non graphical install for ubuntu, the graphical install disk sucks for all my PCs [01:20] Luceo: alternate does the same thing [01:20] CoJaBo: Reboot and append to boot line: nomodeset acpi=off [01:21] tried all those too.. it just sites there and the fan kicks up to full speed.

[01:23] Dougie187: I use Cisco routers exclusively [01:23] GSF1200S, it's in spanish but i can translate if u want [01:23] well, I have a linksys WRT150N, with DD-WRT on it, and I can't use N [01:24] locum: so it WAS the video card causing it? Good to hear its fixed. Youre one of the lucky ones where it works :) [01:24] Dougie187: Does the Linksys support N, and does the wifi card? [01:25] Luceo: yes, and yes. [01:25] Dougie187: I've never found a router have a Linux-specific protocol issue [01:25] CoJaBo: doesn't boot ! .. have md5 test the iso . [01:25] Dougie187: Does your Linux driver support wireless n? [01:25] yeah, my card is Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 an the driver is driver=iwlwifi [01:25] GSF1200S, well thank god [01:25] sary: yeh, checks out, both the normal and alternate [01:25] GSF1200S, and u for put me in the track [01:25] the cd check black screens too [01:26] CoJaBo: did you burn the iso image on a low speed. [01:26] yeh, with checking. [01:27] Dougie187: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1592846 Might solve your problem [01:27] What you mean ! [01:27] burned on two different computers with two different cd rw media [01:27] Luceo: wlan0 IEEE 802.11abgn [01:27] cojabo have you ever been to chimpout forum? [01:27] it is the greatest thing if you hate niggers like I do! [01:27] StafferA: didn't itell you to diaf [01:28] Hello all, I hate to interrupt the discussions, but I recently installed Ubuntu 12.04 via wubi on my thinkpad t61 with Windows 7 and after the intial boot, it will no longer boot into ubuntu. Just before the purple splash screen as it does some checks it mentions something about some NTFS thing failing. I rand the windows memory tool, but nothing ever came of it. My windows partition seems to be working fine - has anyone experience [01:28] locum: np [01:28] don feed the troll , feed the poor. [01:28] lol [01:28] *insight [01:28] *dont. [01:29] Luceo: thanks for the link though. My rate does say 1 Mb/s :(. But I don't have the modprobe.d file [01:29] sary: he comes back every month. you can set your watch by him xD [01:29] alright, lets move on [01:29] sary: but its def. not the cd :/ [01:29] Ikelos_, wubi is more fragile due to its reliance on large files in ntfs [01:30] CoJaBo: ;) [01:30] puppy Linux takes..... forever to dl :/ [01:30] Do you think I would have better luck installing traditionally from a disk? [01:30] IdleOne: sure :) [01:30] if that doesn't work, I'll probably just scrap it for parts :/ [01:31] CoJaBo: ive never known anyone how couldn't pass to the desktop using any of the kernel boot options. [01:31] Ikelos_: yes, I would setup a dual boot using a livecd over wubi anyday [01:31] CoJaBo: I hope you did try it the right way. [01:31] Dougie187: Hmm, idk then sorry :S My wireless N card has never failed to connect to a Wireless N router and I roam quite a lot [01:32] sary: yeh. it usually works, just nut this tine [01:32] GSF12005_ : thanks - I will try that and see if it works [01:32] I'd assume it's an issue in config, Dougie187, not a Linux issue with the router, routers are not OS-dependent, neither is the 802.11n protocol [01:32] Np. thanks for the help. I was just thinking it might be time to get a new router, since when I connect with it in mixed (N on mode) it just kills the router [01:32] it times out connections like every 5 seconds, and I end up having to reboot the router and hardline it to turn off N mode. [01:34] Dougie187: I have a Cisco Linksys EA3500 and it's done me well [01:34] awesome, thanks [01:35] Dougie187: those centrino wifis have a hard time with n speed [01:35] or just n connections? :P [01:35] Dougie187: you need a modprobe option to make them run at g speed, then they are stable [01:36] Dougie187: just set your wifi to not n, most routers can switch between speeds [01:36] CoJaBo: then am clueless . [01:36] me too :/ [01:36] my laptop wifi, or the router wifi? [01:36] Dougie187: what is the driver modeul it is using if you run: sudo iwlist scan [01:37] Dougie187: in the laptop [01:37] ActionParsnip: I'm using iwlwifi [01:37] ActionParsnip: It's iwlwifi [01:37] It's going to be bad :P [01:37] I found this [01:37] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1978457 [01:38] CoJaBo: is it a laptop or a desktop that is facing this issue , and model is it. [01:38] Dougie187: echo "options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf > /dev/null reboot to test [01:38] Do i need to add the "discard" option to my SSD's mount point? [01:38] I just tried the "sudo modprobe iwlwifi 11n_disable=1" [01:38] ActionParsnip: He doesnt have to reboot, just modprobe -r iwlwifi and modprobe iwlwifi [01:38] well, after a -r iwlwifi [01:38] Luceo: unloading and reloading modules can cause issues if the module is in use at that exact time [01:39] ActionParsnip: You should be able to make sure it isn't in use, sudo ip link set dev wlan0 down iirc [01:40] I think that niggers are subhuman beasts!

Sometimes its the easiest way to fix things [01:42] ActionParsnip: Sometimes, I tend to only reboot either a) when my machine crashes or b) when I compile a new kernel [01:43] occasionally i prefer not to fix a things because i dont like reboots [01:43] dubrun: line 293 shows again its recognizing the monitor/tv/whatever [01:43] question...I'm completely new to linux..and have some install issues..

See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [02:13] my laptop is broken and my desktop has a cup holder for a cd tray it dont even close [02:13] ActionParsnip: dunno, It could be; theres no vendor label/etc on it [02:13] ascend716: follow the second link ubottu posted to learn how to upgrade without a cd [02:14] ActionParsnip: "Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock" [02:14] ActionParsnip Gnome-Shell shows the option to sleep on lid shutting, but toggling it does nothing [02:14] !aptfix | W1N9Zr0 [02:14] Unless it went on the CD drive cover piece that looks like its missing.. [02:14] W1N9Zr0: If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » [02:14] ascend716: if you prefer a clean install over a regular upgrade, you can also upgrade/install using a USB drive [02:14] gah. [02:14] W1N9Zr0: you are using sudo right? [02:14] ZetaRC12: do you have the latest BIOS? [02:14] yes [02:14] i see a dpkg process running in ps [02:15] W1N9Zr0: that's why then ;), ubottu's command will help [02:15] ActionParsnip yeah, it's up to date [02:15] what do i do after, run do-release-upgrade to finish the upgrade? [02:15] ZetaRC12: I suggest you report a bug with acpi [02:15] ok thanks i will try eventually i just didnt want to back up all my data first. didnt know i could put the new version without a clean install. still kinda wondering how do i create a file with slases and what not? [02:16] W1N9Zr0: yes [02:16] ascend716: you should have a backup anyway [02:16] ActionParsnip 6 months to a fix then... not good as I'm setting this up for a student [02:17] ZetaRC12: just don't close the lid without shutting down... [02:18] ascend716: re slashes in filenames, you can ONLY have \ slashes - the other / is reserved for directory use i believe [02:18] I am running ubuntu 12.04 and my -24 version was broken when I tried to activate an nvidia driver. I can load the old 23 version through grub with no problem. But now I need to either fix the problem, OR always load the -23 version. So the question is what should I do and how? [02:18] Dawn262 [02:18] thanks i will try the upgrade from the update manager, this will not wipe my drive first right? === don262 is now known as Dawn262 [02:19] ascend716: zykotick9 is correct, the "file" /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules is actually the file 51-android.rules in the directory /etc/udev/rules.d/ [02:19] thanks, that command put me back into the upgrade configuration shell [02:19] ascend716: no it will not. but backups are something that are 100% HIGHLY recommended even if you *aren't* upgrading! [02:20] cool thanks i will try that now and come back if i need more help u guys rock thanks! [02:20] ascend716: you should seriously look into acquiring some backup media. HDD and Flash drives are very cheap when you consider the cost of losing all your data [02:20] How has /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu been integrated in 12.04? I just upgraded and I'm my qmake builds are pulling from there instead of /usr/lib missing some libraries [02:20] ascend716: alright. The best of luck :) [02:21] my VLC died an ugly death. Please, how do I kill it from the terminal? Is has my CPU at 100% and won't let go, or let me see the logfile on what it is hung up on. [02:21] Dawn262: killall vlc? [02:21] cobalt237: are you trying to qmake a 32bit application perhaps? [02:21] Dawn262: or killall -9 vlc if the first command doesnt work [02:21] Dawn262: try "killall vlc" if the app isn't just called vlc [02:22] i think its called VLC though [02:22] Dawn262: is the window still visible? [02:22] DarwinSurvivor: Yes [02:22] EvilResistance: s/or/if above fails try/ [02:22] yes is stuck trying to start a .mkv [02:22] cobalt237: and you are running a 64 bit version of ubuntu correct? [02:22] worked great before the upgrade. now just hangs on start [02:22] Dawn262: from the launcher (top-left corner) run "xkill" then click on the vlc window === Youri is now known as Iruoy [02:23] Greetings. Just upgraded to 12.04. Having Apache loading errors. CAn anyone help?? I can state the errors I'm getting. [02:23] DarwinSurvivor: xkill is the poorest choice regarding the various kill methods (sometimes the easiest though) [02:23] my microphone isnt working [02:23] help [02:23] DarwinSurvivor: No, I'm on a x686 install (Linux atlas 3.2.0-24-generic-pae #37-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 25 10:47:59 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux) [02:24] cobalt237: well that's strange then. Did you install qmake from the repositories [02:24] ok thanks DarwinSurvivor and EvilResistance and zykotick9 that did the trick. am gonna write down that killall -9 command. it worked! [02:24] Yeah, just the standard Qt libs [02:24] Dawn262: only use -9 if regular kill fails! [02:24] thx [02:24] Dawn262: if you can figure out what triggers the problem (able to reproduce on command), please file a bug report so that the problem can get fixed properly [02:25] * Dawn262 huggles all the ubunto otakus here! [02:25] Dawn262: i dont recommend always using killall -9 [02:26] DarwinSurvivor: I don't know why qmake is building against /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu instead of /usr/lib though [02:26] Dawn262: "kill" is like putting a car in park and turning it off. "kill -9" is like pulling the sparkplugs out! [02:26] Is that the standard now? [02:26] lol that is only thing that stops VLC in this case though [02:26] I goess this machine isn't compatible with Linux :/ [02:26] Dawn262: if you rename the vlc config folder then rerun, is it better? [02:26] cobalt237: what application are you trying to build? The application may be directly trying to use those libs (thus not qmake's fault). [02:27] DarwinSurvivor: It's just a little Qt app I wrote a long time ago [02:27] CoJaBo: try safemode vga boot option [02:27] ActionParsnip, am going to try that now. is it in \usr\.config? === alex__ is now known as ajksdfljlsdaf [02:28] hello is there any formating software for hdmi out to my tv i cannot get the right ratio to fit my tv screen correctly [02:28] I have two systems, both running precise pangolin. How can I see the desktop of one from the desktop of the other? [02:28] cobalt237: can you pastebin "grep -R include *" when run from inside the project's directory? [02:28] I have seemed to have lost my right click add folder and ctrl + h to shot hidden files in Nautilus ? [02:28] Dawn262: ~/.config/vlc I beleiev. It may be ~/.vlc [02:28] any idea why? [02:28] cobalt237: also, please pastebin your project file [02:28] thx [02:28] will try that [02:29] I've just installed Ubuntu 12.04 server LTS. I am using an rt2651 (Linksys WMP54G) wireless card. I can associate to the AP, but i keep losing connection. I'm pretty much next to the AP. Anyone have any suggestions? [02:29] ActionParsnip: How do i add that? [02:29] No one with Apache2 on 12.04 ?? Errors happening... Help ?? [02:30] how do i edit the source kernal to apply a patch? [02:30] DarwinSurvivor: includes (http://pastebin.com/TEdHWwWx) and src.pro (http://pastebin.com/Ai6CnsfU) [02:30] cobalt237: if the project is available via git, svn, etc, that link would also be fine. I just want to try and rule out a poorly written include or link command in the source [02:30] !bootoptions | CoJaBo [02:30] CoJaBo: For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions See also !nomodeset. [02:31] Still nothing [02:31] The only thing that boots is the memory test [02:31] Jester2: tried disabling ipv6 (assuming you don't use it)? [02:31] cobalt237: well, those all seem to be in order [02:31] cobalt237: can you pastebin the output of your qmake session? [02:32] Does anyone here have issues logging in to gnome-shell? It always hangs for me, for times ranging from a few seconds (fast machine) to minutes (slower machine). [02:32] ActionParsnip: I'll try that out, will let you know what happens. Thank you [02:32] DarwinSurvivor: The qmake session? [02:32] wait.. [02:32] cobalt237: also, make sure you have FULLY cleaned the project (so that all that remains is the .pro, the source and your other base project files) [02:32] ActionParsnip: Theres a white bar at the bottom now.. [02:32] I am running ubuntu 12.04 and my -24 version was broken when I tried to activate an nvidia driver. I can load the old 23 version through grub with no problem. But now I need to either fix the problem, OR always load the -23 version. So the question is what should I do and how? [02:32] cobalt237: when you run qmake, you should get a pile of output in the terminal (you are running this from the terminal correct?) [02:32] CoJaBo: try xpud too, it's spiffy :) [02:33] cobalt237: if there is a large ammount of output (too much to copy/paste), use pastebinit "sudo apt-get install pastebinit; qmake 2>&1 | pastebinit" [02:33] DarwinSurvivor: Yes, but I don't think I've ever gotten any output from qmake [02:34] cobalt237: then where are you seeing the strange inclusion attempts. Basically, please pastebin what-ever strange messages, outputs, errors, etc you are seeing. [02:35] cobalt237: sorry, I meant the "make" session :( [02:35] hello is there any formating software for hdmi out to my tv i cannot get the right ratio to fit my tv screen correctly [02:35] danny: what GPU do you use? [02:36] ActionParsnip: GPU ? if u tell me how i find out or what that is then i can tell u [02:36] danny: the video card [02:36] danny: sudo lshw -C display will tell you [02:36] interestingly enough renaming the VLC conf folder did not solve the problem. same thing. but i DID get it to give me a log that showed the problem. is my on board video intel. i either need to upgrade to run 12.04 without 'modeset' or downgrade back to 11.* [02:36] poo [02:37] guess nothing happening with this one [02:37] Dawn262: vlc actually gave out that report?? [02:37] Dawn262: that is ONE thorough error message! [02:37] Hello all [02:37] DarwinSurvivor: Ah, I see. The issue is I have a -lassimp line and libassimp.so resides in /usr/lib but the command point to /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu via -L/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu [02:37] ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/988272/ [02:37] not that exactly just said the intel g 5432 could not drive the .mkv file === xezekal is now known as SolarAquarion [02:38] danny: ok and the output of: lsb_release -a; uname -a please [02:38] yea only one error in the new log [02:38] DarwinSurvivor: If I run qmake --version, I see "Using Qt version 4.8.1 in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu" in the output, which seems like an issue [02:39] ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/988273/ [02:39] I am having trouble with HDMI output to TV. The screen is blank after I install ubuntu 12.04LTS, but works perfectly on the live cd and Windows. [02:39] be right back (3 minutes) [02:39] DarwinSurvivor: What's the point of this i386 lib instead of just /usr/lib? [02:39] I've been using 12.04 since Beta 1 and didn't have any problems with HDMI. [02:40] It works with ATI drivers installed but is very slow and tearing [02:40] Ok, somehow it dumped my into a busybox console, is there any way to start the install or whatever from there? [02:43] ActionParsnip: if it helps with windows i cant find the right ratio with the options it gives me either i either have sides hanging off or not fitting the full screen [02:43] danny: you may need an xorg.conf if your screen is not reporting EDID as it should. [02:44] back [02:45] ActionParsnip: could u give me a link to learn more about that or tell me what that means looks like somthing from star treck [02:45] cobalt237: I'm not entirely sure, let me go check something on my 32 bit machine [02:46] danny: its a config file, it used to need to be used back in the day but now udev does a lot of work instead. If your display doesn't play nice then you may need to revert to the old school. Good screens will do as they are supposed to and you don't have the pain of playing with config files [02:47] ActionParsnip: ok how do i control it or use it ? === ludkiller|AFK is now known as ludkiller [02:48] How do I enable perl with apache using ubuntu server, the a2enmod script doesn't seem to be able to find though it's installed [02:48] danny: you will want to shutdown your desktop (X) and type: Xorg -configure This will deposit an xorg.conf.new in your home directory I believe, and you will copy that to /etc/X11/xorg.conf [02:48] danny: you will need to make it [02:49] danny: it can be a long and painful journey [02:50] * L3top sudders... modlines [02:50] ActionParsnip: so for someone as inexpienced as me i should just cut my losses ? hmm with there was jsut a program that lets me ajust the screen size more in depth then the preinstalled monitors one does [02:50] danny: my nvidia needs one as the defaults pick 1980x1024 at 3000 dpi (no joke) huge display with tiny tiny text and mouse pointer [02:51] danny: puppylinux can be used to make an xorg.conf file. Its good at detectnig screens :) [02:52] hey there. Just a quick question: even on 12.04 sound playing is somewhat sluggish when I use pulse but it works great when I use alsa. Any idea on how could i improve pulse?, please [02:52] ActionParsnip: ha well whats weird is my tv is like the only tv i have ever had trouble getting the right size evan my galaxy nexus is missing the right and left side cut off and i think android does an awesome job detecting screen size automatically maybe its jsut my tv [02:53] danny: sounds like a troublesome set, not reporting what it can do [02:53] when I connect my samsung seek cell phone to my Ubuntu 12.04 machine ... the phone says its connected but it does not show up on ubuntu... suggestions? [02:54] connect via usb cable you mean? [02:54] ActionParsnip: its an old hd tv lol but thanks for the attention looks like ima just say &*() it [02:54] cobalt237: well, my 32 bit machine does the same thing (qmake --version) [02:55] DarwinSurvivor: I have about 1400 libs in /usr/lib and 1100 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu, so I guess I may have to include a -L/usr/lib from now on when using qmake and any lib from /usr/lib [02:55] dr_willis, yes [02:55] cobalt237: possibly, I'm not sure. [02:55] cobalt237: what is the output of "echo $PATH"? [02:56] DarwinSurvivor: /usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games [02:56] U-b-u-n-t-u: i recall webupd8 blog site. or the omgubuntu! site having some guides on mounting newer android phones. the old ones had a usb mode. newer ones do it differently [02:56] cobalt237: oops, wrong variable. just a second [02:58] cobalt237: what about "echo $LD_INCLUDE_PATH"? [02:58] cobalt237: ah, looks like the answer to where the directory came from his at http://askubuntu.com/questions/52617/what-is-usr-lib-i386-linux-gnu-for [02:59] if your bluetooth card is built into your wifi card, is it possible to cause lag with a bluetooth mouse? [02:59] neo_: i wouldent think so. [02:59] how would I disable a built in bluetooth card and enable a usb one? [03:00] mouse is so low bandwith. ive seen video drivers and so forth cause a laggy mouse [03:00] neo_: well, you can always have both enabled, but to disable it the easiest method may be via the BIOS [03:00] the bios does not support it, I already checked that [03:00] hello all! quick question - i have a machine running some lubuntu version for bitcoin mining. almost everything has been gutted from the version except terminal and essential stuff. i want to know what speed my P4 is running at. the command "-sudo cat /proc/cpuinfo" doesnt work, it says no such command. my question is what dependencies do i need to get for that command to work ? [03:00] Hello, I have a macbook pro 13 inch late 2011 and ubuntu is not able to get wireless working. I tried using the Driver program that is already installed on ubuntu but it tells me that no drivers could be found [03:01] !info cat [03:01] Package cat does not exist in precise [03:01] derp, try sudo instead if -sudo [03:01] yes i did that lol [03:01] derp: remove the "-" at the beginning. in fact you don't even need sudo. "cat /pro/cpuinfo" is all you need. [03:01] it doesnt work [03:01] derp: what error message do you get? [03:01] you removed your cat command/ [03:02] or the sudo command [03:02] cobalt237: as for getting qmake to see it by default, that may be a bug. best to check with the #qt guys first, then consider filing a bug report [03:02] Hello, I have a macbook pro 13 inch late 2011 and ubuntu is not able to get wireless working. I tried using the Driver program that is already installed on ubuntu but it tells me that no drivers could be found [03:02] derp: if you want a minial ubuntu install, install ubuntu-minimal! https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [03:03] sudo cat /proc/cpuinfo gives this result - "not a directory" [03:03] How do I enable perl with apache using ubuntu server, the a2enmod script doesn't seem to be able to find though it's installed [03:03] you could try ndiswrapper [03:03] it allows windows wifi drivers [03:03] http://bamter.org/ [03:03] It is a macbook though [03:03] derp: first of all, drop the sudo, completely unnecessary. [03:04] there should be a mac forum on the ubuntu forums [03:04] i am using this system. its lubuntu but its been modified [03:04] okay. i have tried that [03:04] same result [03:04] there should be windows drivers because you can put on bootcamp and have a microsoft operating system [03:04] whats the model number of the macbook? [03:04] So apperently, its not freezing, its just really, really, inconcivably slow (took about 20+ mins to reach the installer menu, and is taking 5-10 mins to proceed past each dialog) [03:05] derp: what happens if you just run "cat"? [03:05] !find /bin/cat [03:05] File /bin/cat found in 9base, ampache, aterm-ml, canna-utils, catcodec, catdoc, catdvi, catfish, coop-computing-tools, coreutils (and 15 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=/bin/cat&mode=&suite=precise&arch=any [03:06] does this solve your cat version? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1764642&page=3 [03:06] what would cause it to be this slow? :/ [03:06] neo_: thank you for helping out, but please prefix your messages with the name of the user you are talking to. it *greatly* decreases confusion and most irc clients will highlight the message for the affected user [03:06] cant you just type lscpu [03:07] to get cpu info [03:07] Hi all! Ok, im having a few minor issues with a new install. 1. Im trying to disable to system bell (the sound it makes when you press tab in a terminal windows and there is nothing to auto complete) and 2. Numlock always on starting at GDM [03:07] couldn't find squat on google [03:08] To elaborate on number 2, i want numlock always on starting from gdm [03:08] mv: your BIOS will probably have an option for #2 [03:08] mv: auto-numlock is normally (as far as i've seen) a BIOS setting [03:08] system bell is disabled by default i thought. seen many people in here asking how to reenable it. the terminal app should have a setting for it [03:08] mv: you may want to enable NumLock on Powerup in your BIOS, if it supports that [03:08] mv: for #1, open the sound settings and there should be a volume control for "bell" just mute it. [03:09] What does it mean when modprobe prints a stack trace?? [03:09] mv: you can also go into system settings to turn it off (and optionally turn on the visual bell which will flash the window for you( [03:09] DarwinSurvivor: i looked in the sound settings... couldn't ... never mind, i think i found it lol.. [03:09] T_H_X, thank you! lspcu got me the info i needed [03:09] derp: what do you get if you run "which cat"? [03:09] as for the auto numlock... numlock is on UNTIL the OS takes over on boot [03:10] DarwinSurvivor: So in general what are developers supposed to do in any build system? Link against both? [03:10] * CoJaBo gives up [03:11] CoJaBo: id be doing a memtest on the box. [03:11] actually, i think i even have a copy of xp thats not being used... [03:11] I have an arch linux partition and it will stay on on that partition... cant seem to find anything to keep it on on this partition tho.. I saw something about numlockx but that is for after you log in, not for GDM [03:11] dr_willis: Memtest completes fine. [03:11] DarwinSurvivor, it didnt do anything. it dropped to the next line in term, and just sat there blank untill i killed it with ctrl c (i waited a couple minutes) [03:11] CoJaBo: how long did it run.. [03:12] 20 mins; far longer than it takes for Ubuntu to freeze [03:12] what is a floodbot? [03:12] if its som e sort of heat issue. that may be causing weirdness [03:12] It ran XP fine, and the installer CD boots fine. Dunno if i have any keys that arent in use tho :/ [03:12] neo_: if you send lots of text to the channel and/or autojoin, i assume it kicks you [03:13] (the XP installer cd) [03:13] autojoin repeatedly i mean [03:13] xp running 'fine' is not proof of good hardware. [03:13] It'll just have to run that, can't get anything else to :/ [03:14] you did check the md5sum and other tests? [03:14] Yeh. The works [03:14] id test with a different distro also. like tinycorelinux [03:15] I have a beatsaudio laptop which has 4 speakers, im running ubuntu 12.04 and sound only is coming out of two of them [03:15] The cds (normal and alternate) were downloaded and burned on different PCs in different towns lol.. [03:15] dr_willis: Puppy linux also fails to boot, freezes shortly into the boot [03:15] could be a weird kernel/driver issue. a different distro/kernel would possibaly clarify that [03:16] derp: was that when running "cat" or "which cat"? [03:16] in 12.04 why do i have this window shadow glitch? http://i.imgur.com/7bTMK.png [03:16] there are puppy variants thet use the ubuntu kernel. try somthhing non-ubuntu [03:16] DarwinSurvivor, that was just "cat" [03:17] derp: ok, that's normal (it's what cat does) [03:17] dr_willis: Like which? [03:17] derp: what does "ls -l /proc/cpuinfo" report? [03:17] SliTaZ is a small distro you could download to test [03:17] malkauns_: depends on theme [03:17] CoJaBo: SliTaZ, TinyCore, DSL [03:17] CoJaBo: tinycorelinux = 35mb. [03:17] CoJaBo: did you try xpud? [03:18] ActionParsnip, i dont think so, it just happens when i make the window shadows bigger === ubuntu is now known as Guest90404 [03:18] hey, question!! i have installed ubuntu 12.x, there problem with wireless driver!! with old ubuntu 11.10 and 11.04 , it was working fine!! why ubuntu mess with the driver:( how to fix this issue! i didn't find driver on googlee [03:18] i have HP pavilion dv6 [03:18] I have a HP pavalion dv6 too [03:18] neo_ have u experience like this issue ? [03:19] Could somebody assist me in creating a live USB? The tools listed on the Ubuntu website don't work. I also tried LiLi, but to no avail as well. [03:19] simoo: the kernel has changed so theres been changes to drivers also.. you dont normally 'find drivers on google' for linux.. its not windows [03:19] qmanjr5: dozen of tools at the pendrivelinux site [03:19] dr_willis where then? [03:19] simoo, I troubleshooted it for an hour and found out that I turned it off when I pushed the wifi button next to the mute button [03:19] dr_willis i did update and same! [03:20] I had to compile my wifi dongle drivers... i dont think WUSB600n v2 will ever be supported by any kernel natively [03:20] neo_ no it's on for me [03:20] simoo: the drivere did not just get removed if they were in an older release. [03:20] simoo: if you open up a terminal and do ifconfig -a, do you see wlan0? [03:20] Jester2 yes [03:20] simoo, run jockey-gtk [03:21] neo_ huh [03:21] malkauns_: what is the output of: lsb_release -sc [03:21] dr_willis is there a chance to copy driver from 11.04 live cd ? [03:21] simoo, ctrl+alt+t then type in jockey-gtk and push enter [03:22] simoo: try to force it up 'sudo ifconfig wlan0 up' then try connecting via network manager [03:22] ActionParsnip, precise [03:22] simoo: do sudo iwlist wlan0 scan [03:22] simoo: you are thinking in windows mindset again. the jockey-gtk app should get any extra drivers you need [03:22] DarwinSurvivor, your command returned this "-r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 may 15 03:18 /proc/cpuinfo" lol. was that intended ? === LukeNukem_ is now known as LukeNukem [03:22] dr_willis: Tinycore does not boot [03:22] derp: yes. "cat /proc/cpuinfo" should work just fine according to those results. [03:22] o wait [03:22] simoo, were you able to open jockey? [03:22] derp: you're sure you didn't put a / at the very end? [03:22] it did something now.. [03:23] DarwinSurvivor, i can do it again and check, one moment.. [03:23] k, it died again [03:23] UBUNTU, I am trying to use an animated gif for my background. How do I do that easily [03:23] CoJaBo: id check 'dmesg' output and see if any errors show up. somthing seems very weird with that system [03:23] CoJaBo: have you tested the RAM usiing Memtest? [03:24] Its still booting, the CD drive spun up for like, 2 secs [03:24] it got to the desktop then froze [03:24] tiny core should boot in like 10 sec.. ;) [03:24] simoo, did you know you can light up the touchpad with the fn key and space? [03:25] this is a laptop or desktop CoJaBo ? [03:25] dr_willis: tiny core is still pretty new and doesn't have a lot of hardware support tho .. [03:25] Desktop [03:25] I'm trying it in cli only mode now.. [03:25] somehow I made my desktop smaller http://paste.ubuntu.com/988302/ [03:25] It does boot to that.. [03:26] CoJaBo: may be worth opening it up and giving it a good cleaning [03:26] dr_willis: I've tried multiple tools. None of them seem to work. Something goes wrong. For example, my last attempt produced the following line on my computer that I wish to boot into Ubuntu: "SYSLINUX 4.04 EDD 2011-04-18 Copyright (C) 1994-2011 H. Peter Anvin et al" And then a blinking cursor on the next line. However, I can't type anything, and nothing else appears. [03:26] sounds almost like the gpu overheating. or some sort of crash under load issue [03:26] dr_willis: The inside is.. *sterile*. It looks like it was kept in a cleanroom lol [03:27] qmanjr5: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? [03:27] DarwinSurvivor, hey it worked that time! i must have made a typo. thanks for the help. ps, +1 for Darwinism ;) [03:27] Guest90404: Go to system settings->display ... try changing the resolution to something higher.. [03:27] qmanjr5: you can use 'dd' or other imageing tools to put 12.04 on a usb. [03:27] derp: no problem. typos are very common [03:27] ActionParsnip: thanks for your ipv6 suggestion. looks like its working so far. had to change channels on my AP too...too many APs around. [03:27] Jester2: np man :) [03:27] qmanjr5: or use the pendrive linux tools that boot the iso file via grub. [03:28] you guys rock!! I love lurking here and learning all this stuff [03:28] meh [03:28] dr_willis, I am trying to use an animated gif as my desktop background. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=926519 is what I am following, http://pastebin.com/Nsvwy004 is my output however, o_o [03:28] I am trying to add a user with adduser and getting the error: adduser: The user 'testuser' does not exist. [03:28] does dd copy the bootloader and master boot record? [03:29] alusion: you can use xvidwinrap to have a video as the desktop too [03:29] alusion: i cant imagine why you would want an animated gif as wallpaper [03:29] neo_: yes its new (since oneiric I believe) [03:29] sleepycat, sudo adduser chris [03:29] neo_: dd is an exact clone [03:29] sleepycat: what did you type? [03:29] mv 1600 x 1200 is the highest [03:30] ActionParsnip, so I could clone my entire hard drive like an exact copy and everything? [03:30] dr_willis, it is because I have a very awesome collection of gifs available, and will look cool [03:30] neo_: jrib : sudo adduser --debug --disabled-password --gecos 'Test User' testuser admin [03:30] It's this sorta quantum flux organic morphing gif, really cool [03:30] sleepycat: what's the "admin" for? If you want to create the user, omit "admin" [03:31] Guest90404: Is that what it is currently set at? [03:31] ActionParsnip, xvidwinwrap sounds interesting, does it include sound as well? sudo apt-get install xvidwinwrap? [03:31] jirb: I thought that was going to add the user to the admin group [03:31] dr_willis, can I use dd for my root file system and create an iso while I am running the operating system? [03:31] neo_: yes, thats what dd is great at. Don't mix the input and outputs though or dd will stand for 'data destroyer' [03:31] jrib: I'll try again... [03:31] alusion: as far as I know, no [03:31] ActionParsnip, what does dd stand for? [03:32] neo_: you can clone it to a image.. it will be the same fs as the source.. so it wont be iso9660 [03:32] jrib: that was it. Guh... [03:32] dr_willis, I dont know what iso9660 is [03:33] ActionParsnip, can I clone my entire hard drive while I am booted into the operating system? [03:33] iso9660 the fs cd/dvds use normally === ludkiller is now known as ludkiller|AFK [03:33] would that cause a problem? [03:33] neo_: data description apparently [03:33] neo_: best to image from a live cd [03:33] wikipedia has a good page on 'dd' [03:33] neo_: or dump data [03:33] my internet is slow!!!!! [03:34] anyone from malaysia [03:34] !malaysia [03:35] so 'sudo dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/backup.iso' or 'sudo dd=if=/dev/sda of=/backup.iso' [03:35] neo_: it will NOT be an iso [03:35] dr_willis: I don't see anything on Pendrivelinux about ooting via grub [03:35] booting* [03:35] dr_willis, what would it be then? [03:35] neo_: it will be a image of your hard drive with what fs its using [03:36] its an exact clone..... [03:36] neo_: you can name it whatever you want [03:36] what file extension does it use then? [03:36] neo_: file extensions mean nothing in Linux [03:36] file extentions are meaningless in this case [03:37] neo_: its a data file, you can call it output.myolddata15052012 if you want [03:37] time to read up on dd at the wikipedia page - i suggest [03:38] ActionParsnip, whats the difference between 'dd if=/dev/sda' and dd if=/dev/sda1 [03:38] sda = the whold hard drive [03:38] sda1 = a partition [03:39] neo_: what dr_willis said [03:39] how would I open up the clone? [03:39] like 'a book' vs 'a chapter' [03:39] archive manager? [03:39] !iso [03:39] To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. [03:39] neo_: you can mount it, or use dd to put it on another drive [03:39] mount can mount the image [03:39] mounty makes mounting images easy :) [03:40] that sounds dirty... ;) [03:40] I would then do dd if=/output.myolddata15052012 of=/dev/sda === Youri is now known as Iruoy [03:40] pointing to iso for mounting the hdd dump is confusing [03:40] This has been troubling me a lot. Ubuntu 12.04 (and the ones before that) was super fast when I first installed it... but over time as I installed more and more softwares, it got slower and slower... it's not unbearable but I miss the fast Ubuntu. I thought this progressive degradation was supposed to happen with Windows only. Do you have familiar experiences? [03:41] everstt, have you done sudo apt-get autoremove? [03:41] neo_ no [03:41] everstt: not reaqlly. if somthing is installed but not running . no extra resources are used except hd space [03:41] everstt, open terminal and run the command sudo apt-get autoremove [03:41] dr_willis, that should be the case... but I've noticed it everytime! === Jezzz is now known as Guest43572 [03:42] i have haf 12.04 get slow after a long uptime, a logout/backin fixes it for me [03:43] but that points to a driver/x issue in my case [03:43] I keep getting something about a problem getting detected and I click the report button everytime [03:43] dr_willis, neo_ Did I install something that slows my computer down? [03:43] can I track it down? [03:44] everstt: we dont know what you are installing... [03:44] services use cpu... but other then that.. [03:44] dr_willis, everstt run gnome-system-monitor or goto system-administration-system monitor [03:44] neo_, autoremove tells me "714 kB disk space will be freed" so not much there I guess [03:45] dr_willis, everstt and 'sudo apt-get -y autoremove' will remove packages that are no longer required [03:46] I've got a quick question for you: I am running Lubuntu 12.04 on an Inspiron 1000 2.2ghz celeron, with 1.25 Gigs of Ram, was Rsyncing from my other machine running Xubuntu to do a routine backup of a huge 3 gig file and when Lubuntu went to idle it dropped into a severe kernel panic...does anyone know how I can look through the logs to verify this? [03:46] dr_willis, everstt and you could also do 'sudo apt-get -y clean && sudo apt-get -y autoclean' [03:46] neo_ I don't think the slowness is caused by disk space... I have plenty.... I have 8GB swap and 4GB RAM... It's not the swap is it? [03:47] everstt, did you open system monitor? Its like windows task manager and you can see where your resources are going [03:47] everstt: you may need to clarify whats getting slow. and check htop for resource hogs [03:48] htop also does the same thing as system monitor, its just system monitor is more user friendly [03:48] man, this has been bugging me forever... after a clean Ubuntu install everything is so fast... but when I'm done installing all the softwares I need, It's slow... [03:48] dr_willis, the application start time gets slow [03:48] everstt, dr_willis check your startup applications [03:48] everstt: what software? just load times are longer? the apps still run fine? [03:48] there is no resource hogs [03:49] dr_willis, yes just the load time... wait, the GIMP healing tool was very very slow [03:50] so slow I just gave up [03:50] you could do 'sudo apt-get -y --purge remove gimp gimp-data && sudo apt-get -y autoremove && sudo apt-get -y autoclean && sudo apt-get -y install gimp' [03:51] This slowness I'm describing happens with every release of Ubuntu...at first everything's super fast... as more apps gets installed, it gets slower and slower [03:51] Does anyone know how to get around the "three incorrect password attempts" error message? I got the error when I was trying to install TrueCrypt. (by the way, I know I entered the correct password). [03:51] neo_ ok I'll try that [03:51] you could install preload, sudo apt-get -y install preload [03:51] everstt: you mean just the load times.. of the apps of os get longer? [03:52] neo_ I have preload [03:52] Any suggestions for a Kernel Panic problem posted above? [03:52] dr_willis, yes just the load times. [03:53] everstt: that points to a hd bottleneck, or hw issue to me. id check dmesg output regullary [03:54] ive installed kubuntu-desktop,lubuntu-desktop,xubuntu-desktop and tons more and never had the os take much longer to load. or apps take longer to load [03:54] I usually disable some things by doing 'sudo update-rc.d -f apache2 remove' [03:54] Is this a good place to get help with Ubuntu problems? [03:54] dr_willis, I don't know what to look for in the dmesg output. [03:55] beefknuckle: yes [03:55] along with mysql, ondemand, postfix, rsync, caned, and unattended-upgrades [03:55] everstt: anything that looks like an error, or hd related [03:55] I have achieved the most ideal possible desktop settings and I want to create a backup or windows equivalent of a save point for ubuntu though [03:55] how to guide on switching left side panel of ubuntu 12.04 to bottom of desktop [03:56] dmesg |grep error [03:56] Everything is perfect and I want to preserve this to go back to if anything further messes it up, how do I do that effeciently? [03:56] alusion: I am fond of clonezilla [03:56] what does clonezilla do? [03:56] Ah nice choice! Should I make an image of everything onto a seperate HDD? [03:56] clone a partition/hdd [03:56] dr_willis, ok I'll try that... but as everything was working fine after a clean install, do you think it is hd bottleneck? [03:56] night_shades: webupd8 site had a hacked unity for that.. its not officially supported by thiss channel [03:56] !ppa [03:56] A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA?

[03:57] I think I am going to get clonezilla, I dont want to experence what its like to use a data destroyer because I typed a command wrong [03:57] everstt: hd may have bad spots near the middle that get used after you start installing.. hard to tell [03:57] dr_willis, here's an observation... when my current user account gets very very slow, I sometimes create a new user and it gets a little bit faster (not as a clean install, but faster) [03:57] what repository did you get clonezilla from? [03:57] as its name implies, it makes clones. Will clone partition or whole drive to partition/drive/file... can clone across network... very flexible, very foolproof. [03:58] not givign much to work with dr willis [03:58] Any Audacious fans out there...need help [03:58] dr_willis, hmm hadn't heard of that... is there some way to not use the bad spots? [03:58] night_shades: use the webupd8 search feature [03:58] so clonezilla is a bootable iso and not a program [03:58] everstt: i partioned my drive around them as a dirty fix untill i got a new hd. [03:58] yes neo_. [03:59] Hey trubbor. I lost my menu one time. I think alt-A brought it back. [03:59] there are clonzilla live cds [03:59] I thought it was a program like filezilla [03:59] dr_willis, I have a new hd! [03:59] beefknuckle, tried that ..no luck [03:59] its best to clone when the fs is not in use.' [03:59] hard to clone a mounted drive :) [03:59] everstt: ive had new hds die... [04:00] dr_willis, maybe a smaller partition size will help? with all the other partitions not mounted automatically [04:00] Well, shucks. I felt so smart for a second there. [04:00] dr_willis: good ol DOA [04:00] *wonders if he can force unmount a root partition [04:00] i got a segate to sendback also [04:01] Ive never heard of a i486 processor [04:01] gotta love 3+ yr warrenties [04:01] will I corrupt/damage anything if I force unmount a root fiesystem [04:01] beefknuckle, I just got a few more hits using Google instead of DuckDuckGo - so looking at a link that says ~/.config/audacious [04:02] neo_: system will crash i imagine [04:02] dr_willis, neo_ btw I have a 64-bit setup [04:02] neo_: i486DX (P4) 20,25,33 MHz; 50 MHz 5V [04:02] Google is often helpful. [04:03] dr_willis, Im wanting to see what would happen but im not wanting to damage anything [04:03] neo_: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Intel_i486_dx_50mhz_2007_03_27.jpg pure power!

[04:03] * dr_willis presses the turbo button [04:03] dr_willis, neo_ I don't think this is going to be solved right now :) ...I'll check the dmesg output later and see if there's anything there... Thanks. [04:04] ActionParsnip, is it better than amd64? [04:04] beefknuckle, it is..it's also very nosy. Switched to DuckDuckGO a while back - and for the most part happy. Anyways - ~/.config/audacious/config is the file [04:04] I for one welcome our new Google overlords. [04:05] Trubbor did you get your menu back yet? [04:05] ActionParsnip, I think I heard that windows 8 was going to be a 128 bit operating system but theres no 128 bit processor [04:05] ActionParsnip, http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2009/10/microsoft-mulling-128-bit-versions-of-windows-8-windows-9/ [04:06] beefknuckle yes got it back - had to edit that file [04:06] Success! [04:06] and restart [04:06] 3 yr news.. ;) [04:06] I've got a quick question for you: I am running Lubuntu 12.04 on an Inspiron 1000 2.2ghz celeron, with 1.25 Gigs of Ram, was Rsyncing from my other machine running Xubuntu to do a routine backup of a huge 3 gig file and when Lubuntu went to idle it dropped into a severe kernel panic...does anyone know how I can look through the logs to verify this? [04:06] I'm trying to make my gnome-panel look like the one in this picture http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2011/089/b/6/simpleton_by_lassekongo83-d3cfsqx.jpg however for some reason, the selected window has a dark background instead of the transparent one shown in the image. Here's what I get: http://imgput.info/ESC0O.png Can anyone help me fix this? [04:07] bbl [04:07] raise of votes which is better in terms of user friendly and functionality compiz or ubuntu tweak or are they just about the same [04:07] That kernel panic does sound severe. Sorry to hear about that Restringo [04:08] How do I find out what the problem is? [04:08] ubuntu tweak is more user friendly, compiz has more effect options for appearance [04:08] Restringo I guess you'd have to look through the logs somehow. [04:08] anyone ever get an Acer Aspire One D-250 to sleep on closing? I can sleep and hibernate and restore from both states on the laptop manually. When I close the lid the backlight turns off, but the laptop never stops running. /proc/acpi/button/lid/LID0/state only lists the state as closed, no matter if the lid is open or closed. [04:08] night_shades: compiz is a WM, ubuntu tweak is a config tool, you cannot compare them# [04:09] what Action said [04:10] hola [04:10] hola dell [04:11] hola Beef [04:11] ZetaRC12: could try the boot option: acpi_osi=Linux === neo_ is now known as hp123 [04:11] ActionParsnip ok, how do I do that? === hp123 is now known as hp_neo [04:12] ZetaRC12: edit /etc/default/grub change: quiet splash to: quiet splash acpi_osi=Linux [04:12] ZetaRC12: save the new file, then run: sudo update-grub [04:12] So many join, but so few participate. I wonder where all these joiners go? [04:12] how can i make Unity 2D let me middle click a maximised window's titlebar to lower that window? Unity 3D does it out of the box [04:12] ActionParsnip, what does that do? [04:13] ActionParsnip, what does acpi_osi=Linux do? === adante_ is now known as adante [04:13] hp_neo: tweaks the acpi in the kernel, may help [04:13] It seems to me that if the window is maximized then you'd have to unmaximize it before moving it, no? [04:13] mosno: Unity 3D uses a different window manager, so obviously will be different [04:13] ActionParsnip, looks like I still have alot to learn [04:14] ActionParsnip, okay, but can i make Unity 2D do it? [04:14] We all have a lot to learn. === jordan__ is now known as jordan [04:15] I shall worship ActionParsnips higher intelligence [04:16] Is anyone here familiar with the problem of three incorrect passwords and you are locked out forever? That's my struggle tonight. [04:16] All hail ActionParsnips! [04:16] !password | beefknuckle [04:16] beefknuckle: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords [04:17] mosno: not sure dude, its metacity instead of compiz in 2D, maybe you can see how to make metacity do what you desire [04:17] beefknuckle: The first link there will enable you to log in again, assuming you're an administrator of the machine. If you're not, contact your administrator to unlock your account! [04:17] how to set the battery? charge 40% -50% [04:17] beefknuckle: you can boot to root recovery console and reset your password there [04:17] ActionParsnip, that's strange, since metacity does it OOTB! but okay, thanks [04:18] mosno: if it did, you wouldn't have the issue.... [04:18] it was yesturday when someone told me that they knew my password and they put in a bunch of stars, they didnt get very far [04:18] ActionParsnip, i mean upstream OOTB [04:18] ActionParsnip, unless every other distro i've used patched it ;) [04:19] if you login as root you can do 'passwd me' [04:19] no password required === qmanjr5 is now known as qmanjr5_gone === qmanjr5_gone is now known as qmanjr5 [04:20] anyone download the game files for d3? [04:20] Should I submit my Kernel Panic issue to the bug reports for Ubuntu and Linux? [04:20] ActionParsnip ok, here goes nothing [04:21] how do I submit a bug report? [04:21] hp_neo: run: ubuntu-bug packagename [04:21] I don't think anyone here knows about severe kernel panics Restringo. That sounds like a complicated problem [04:21] goddard: how do you mean? [04:22] I have audio coming out of 2/4 speakers, is that alsamixer or pulseaudio? [04:22] Any suggestions? [04:22] ActionParsnip: i just bought the game now im using their download client to download it and i keep getting errors [04:23] Hey all, hope you're all doing great. Just a quick question: I'm running a server with lxde installed and it's all going great =]. However, I'd like to add a hard drive - can I just plug it in and have it detected by fdisk? [04:23] ActionParsnip: trying to figure out how to get it going with Wine [04:23] or do I have to reboot? [04:23] iSplicer, you dont need to reboot [04:23] iSplicer, are you using ubuntu-server? [04:23] hp_neo: also run: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh && ./alsa-info.sh and attach the output to the bug [04:24] Thanks for your response, hp_neo. I'm using lubuntu, actually [04:24] goddard: I'd ask in #winehq [04:24] iSplicer maybe it's like plugging in a flash drive, just plug in and boom goes the dynamite [04:24] iSplicer: as long as the BIOS sees it, yes. You may need to format it but you can use gparted for that [04:24] Where did Flannel go? [04:25] iSplicer: if you mean a USB one then it should detect ok [04:25] ActionParsnip: ok thanks [04:25] iSplicer, ok do mkdir newfolder (create an empty folder to mount to) [04:25] ActionParsnip: haha I actually meant a SATA one. I'll just reboot it, it should be okay =] [04:25] iSplicer, then do sudo fdisk -l [04:25] thanks hp_neo [04:26] i'll plug it in, if fdisk -l doesn't see it, then i'll just reboot the thing [04:26] =] [04:26] iSplicer, then sudo mount /dev/(partition to mount) newfolder/ [04:26] also, anyone here use deluge on a server? the only reason i'm using a DE on my server (lxde) is because deluge 9webui) was SO DIFFICULT to set up via the command line [04:27] hp_neo: gotcha, thanks buddy [04:27] I like iSplicer, always smiling [04:27] My comp doesn't want to mount any usb thumb drives, what do I do? [04:27] do lsusb [04:27] That suckes alusion [04:28] no what really sucks is my ctrl alt tab doesn't open terminal so i have to click it now #1stworldproblems [04:28] open terminal(control+alt+t) and do lsusb [04:28] ctrl alt t* [04:28] alt+f2 [04:28] then gnome-terminal [04:28] hp_neo: or CTRL+ALT+T === ludkiller|AFK is now known as ludkiller [04:29] alusion: if you use terminal a lot, install guake [04:29] IT ACTUALLY WORKED OMG AND IT OPENED TERMINATOR [04:29] <3 [04:29] I always click on the symbol up top and type terminal into the search box. [04:29] beefknuckle: try guake :) [04:29] I prefer terminator [04:29] anyways [04:29] Do you want me output lsusb to pastebin? [04:29] how can I find out when a specific package is planned to be pushed into the official ubuntu apt sources? [04:29] oops - a newer version of a specific package [04:29] is there a way to replace the desktop with a terminal or maybe even four? [04:29] Terminator > Guake brah [04:29] TERMINATOR [04:30] ubuntu one? [04:30] domo1: you do understand that "new versions" only appear with new releases right? only bug fixes for most of the repo (firefox is an exception) [04:30] alusion: you can run terminator in guake [04:30] zykotick9: so new releases of ubuntu? [04:30] ActionParsnip, http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=9cdceebd9ad1381f5138000aac53968b9086efb5 [04:31] hello guys [04:31] ActionParsnip, Do you have screenshots of this instance available? [04:31] domo1: yup, and it's schedule is set-in-stone ;) [04:31] so what about php 5.4 -- that was out before the lastest verson of ubuntu.. wasn't it? [04:31] i'm trying to replace a .conf file in ubuntu, but ubuntu isn't letting me paste the file. what's up with that? sorry, i'm a n00b. ;) [04:31] or did it miss the deadline [04:31] alusion: when you run terminator in a terminal, does it change to terminator or does it launch a new window? [04:31] domo1: freeze happens a while before release [04:31] ahh yea [04:31] ok === ludkiller is now known as ludkiller|AFK [04:32] so we wont see 5.4 in ubuntu until october? [04:32] you dont have permission do sudo nautilus [04:32] You aren't that much of a no0b qubuntu. I never heard of a .conf [04:32] Excuse me again: I have a rather silly question: I'm attempting to do some homework concerning the behavior of shell commands, specifically grep, and my task is to "6. Find all lines that end with "ing" and a period (.)" I have become stumped here as try as I might, "grep $ing\. filename" isnt producing results. And my resources aren't much more specific than "$" searches for patterns at end of lines. [04:32] qubuntu: if the file is outside your home, you will need to run: gksudo nautilus and you can do as you wish [04:32] ActionParsnip, it opens a new window [04:32] hp_neo: gksudo for nautilus [04:32] alusion: ahh, not then [04:32] http://pastebin.com/MMxCwK2W output of lsusb [04:33] qubuntu: or run: sudo gedit (remember to include full path) [04:33] Ikelos, sounds like a hard class. [04:33] !gksudo | nhanb483_ [04:33] nhanb483_: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) [04:33] hi how can i show full permissions for a directory but HIDE the owner/group info? ls -lA works but shows root root (which i want to hide): drwxrwxrwx 4 root root 4096 Aug 24 2011 myfolder [04:33] I want to change the hover/selected color of items on gnome panel . Currently it's this dark gray color that looks like this: http://imgput.info/ESC0O.png Can anyone help me change this? [04:34] thanks for your help ActionParsnip and nhanb483_. i'll try whatever you suggested right now. :) [04:34] wow didn't know that. Thanks guys [04:34] alusion: I don't like terminals floating around, guake will always be showable on shortcut key, saves having to search or alt-tab [04:34] beefknuckle - your ribbing sarcasm is noted... but not really helpful.. could you at least explain why the escape sequence and special character for search aren't producing the desired result? [04:34] nhanb483_: gksudo for gui apps [04:35] alusion, do lsusb without the device plugged in, then plug something into it, then run usb and fine the line that is different [04:35] nhanb483_: you will mangle the ownership of ~/.ICEAuthority and cause issues :) [04:35] alusion, do lsusb without the device plugged in, then plug something into it, then run lsusb and fine the line that is different [04:35] Ikelos, I'm an old man from Kentucky who is stumped by all this technology. Just trying to throw my 2 cents in. Sorry if it sounds sarcastic. [04:36] it worked! i just edited my first .conf file in Terminal and gedit. thanks! [04:37] Awesome qubuntu! [04:37] alusion, it looks like you have a wireless logitech mouse plugged in and perhaps a usb drive [04:37] alusion, and a 1tb external drive [04:38] I'm having a really stupid issue - I've got a second hard drive listed in fstab, but can't seem to figure out how to make the contents accessible to two simultaneous users, for a specific folder where the contents have been chmod'd to 766 [04:38] ls -log does the job [04:38] Icehawk78 that doesn't sound like a stupid issue. [04:39] All the rest is visible, except for the contents of that folder (which currently just show ?????????? ? ? ? ?) when I do an ls -l on the folder [04:39] Icehawk78: the 66 part is an issue for directories, you need execute to enter them! [04:40] zykotick9: Oh. Whoops. So, 777 to allow anyone to read/write on them? [04:40] Icehawk78: yes [04:40] That'd explain that. Thanks :) [04:40] I just like hanging out here watching all the interesting nicknames everyone picks. [04:40] so... any ideas? I was under the impression i was doing something foolishly wrong, or has grep experienced a regression? O.o === nhanb483 is now known as nhanbvn483 [04:43] Ikelos, maybe no one here right now knows. Sometimes I ask questions on reddit, for example, http://www.reddit.com/r/linux [04:43] for some reason the brightness stays the same no matter how i adjust the slider on the brightness settings. anyone know how to fix that? [04:43] hai [04:43] how do i get vdpau acceleration with radeon driver? [04:43] :D [04:43] i've heard mesa has a way to do that [04:43] hai [04:44] Hi lisa [04:44] is it amd? [04:44] amd? [04:44] what? [04:44] what what? [04:44] scientes: your keyword is wrong, vdpau is nvidia specific [04:44] do you have an amd or intel processor? [04:44] zykotick9, oh yeah vaapi [04:44] I installed amd catalyst and it fixed the problem [04:45] zykotick9, i found a ppa, and now youtube is just all blue, but lags just the same [04:45] *lags with 1080p [04:45] qubuntu: what is the make and model of the system? [04:45] scientes: that blue thing is a flash issue [04:45] scientes: i have a fix for that [04:45] ActionParsnip I'm using a Sony VAIO F Series [04:46] ActionParsnip, when i did the fix in /etc/adobe, my flash just crashes [04:46] qubuntu: and what is the output of: lsb_release -sc [04:46] im sure ActionParsnips desktop looks epic [04:46] <_jeremy_> beefknuckle: /r/linuxquestions is another good subreddit [04:46] scientes: ah, thats the fix I have [04:46] ActionParsnip the output is "precise" === pancro is now known as pancro_gone [04:46] Hi [04:46] Good point _jeremy, also /r/linux4noobs [04:47] Hi kaushal [04:47] is there a reminder popup in ubuntu 11.10? [04:47] similar to notify-osd [04:47] Hey guys. Does anybody know something about SCP? [04:47] I need help with it. [04:47] Ido [04:47] basically in systray [04:47] I know scp [04:48] beefknuckle: hi [04:48] SMURPHS, all smurphs [04:48] thanks hp_neo. Ok, is it possible to file transfer over SCP to websites like dropbox, fileserve etc/ [04:48] qubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SonyVaioBrightness [04:49] ActionParsnip: hi [04:49] RyanB: i highly doubt it. if the service in question uses ssh/scp then yes - but i've never heard of one. [04:49] hp_neo is the bomb, he be knowing all the answers [04:49] look, my usb's are hooked up to a mini hub and they aren't mounting [04:49] I'll check that link. Thanks ActionParsnip! [04:49] ActionParsnip is the bomb too [04:49] one 8gb and one 16gb [04:49] RyanB, you can use scp to websites that have ssh installed, if the website supports sftp then you can use scp [04:49] deb bug 656719 is relevent [04:49] Launchpad bug 656719 in gwibber (Ubuntu) "Most user avatars are not displayed" [Low,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/656719 [04:50] beefknuckle: i've just been around a while [04:50] beefknuckle: loads know more than me [04:50] Thanks zykotick9. Also hp_neo do you know of file hosting website websites which supports SSH or SFTP? [04:50] is there a by-user /tmp dir that is cleaned out at each reboot? [04:50] aaas: you can put anything you want in /tmp [04:51] ActionParsnip, if you already know the answers to many questions, why do you come here? Because you love to help people? [04:51] Random832 no i mean by-user...inside /home/ [04:51] RyanB, I have not used it but I just did a search and heres one place http://www.filesanywhere.com/coolbackup/cbindex.aspx [04:51] why would you need that [04:51] Can someone have ubottu displaieve..y the fix for garbled boot screen? Modeset I believe? [04:51] Thanks hp_neo [04:51] beefknuckle: yeah, make the community stronger [04:51] can anyone give me any info if TREDNet nics work in Ubuntu? [04:51] RyanB, http://cloudstorage.olbiz.net/products/ssh-enabled-cloud-storage/ [04:51] Random832 i need a delete-at-boot but samba wont let me link to /tmp through symbolic links...just throught the users have something like that before dealing with samba [04:52] beefknuckle: plus I have zero linux issues, as my hardware is super compatible and my needs are basic [04:52] ActionParsnip I looked up Ubuntu on Wikipedia. It means everyone pitching in to make the community strong and healthy. [04:52] ActionParsnip: any reminder popup apps in ubuntu which will be in systray ? [04:52] Ah so hp_neo you doubt that free services like box.net or dropbox would support SSH or SFTP right? [04:52] beefknuckle: thats the general linux vibe, has been since waaaay before ubuntu showed up [04:53] ActionParsnip, I mean that's literally the meaning of the word Ubuntu. Probably picked that word because of the history of Linux [04:53] ActionParsnip I tried following step 2 but got the following error in Terminal: FATAL: Error inserting sonypi (/lib/modules/3.2.0-24-generic-pae/kernel/drivers/char/sonypi.ko): No such device [04:54] Hey Sheldon! [04:54] RyanB, box.net and dropbox dont. You can always try to do 'ssh a@box.net' or 'ssh b@dropbox.com' to find out [04:54] I love that name Sheldon420 [04:54] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=922608 doesn't seem promessing [04:54] Thanks. [04:54] Hey guys, is there some kind of download accelerator for linux? I mean, programs that download parts of a file simultaneously to speed it up, not just download managers [04:55] Does the dazzle hd dvd recorder play friendly with linux? [04:55] there are firefox and chrome addons [04:56] kaushal: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/reminder-ng-a-reminder-application-for-gnome.html [04:56] hp_neo: such as...? [04:56] Does anyone here have issues logging in to gnome-shell? It always hangs for me, for times ranging from a few seconds (fast machine) to minutes (slower machine). [04:56] kaushal: http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/get-important-reminders-in-ubuntu-linux-with-tea-time/ [04:56] nhanbvn483, what internet browser do you use? [04:56] Chrome it is [04:56] qubuntu: sounds like you need a package, or compile the module [04:56] nhanbvn483, https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/downthemall/ [04:57] jbuncher Yes, my computer hangs as well. I just give it a few moments to catch it's breath and it always starts up for me [04:57] qubuntu: sonys are weird creatures, some need boot options just to make the touchpad work [04:57] nhanbvn483, https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/firedownload/ [04:57] nhanbvn483: i recommend you using downthemall .. [04:57] beefknuckle, yeah, mine mostly gets through, though sometimes it just doesn't seem to go. [04:58] nhanbvn483: axel can download things faster if you can give multiple links for the same file [04:58] i guess I'll search Google for that. i appreciate your help ActionParsnip. [04:58] nhanbvn483, http://www.chromeplugins.org/chrome/list-of-download-managers-for-google-chrome/ [04:58] nhanbvn483: apt-fast uses it for updates [04:58] What can we do jbuncher? Just got to keep calm and carry on (maybe grab a sandwich) [04:58] exit [04:58] oops wrong window. [04:58] ActionParsnip, I've tried axel, but seems like its proxy function doesn't work for my school's connection [04:59] Okay guys [04:59] I have a webforum for you guys [04:59] if you hate niggers [04:59] !ops [04:59] Help!

It did that to me three times and now it won't even consider my passwords. I think there is something fishy going on, since I put the correct password in. I don't understand how just resetting the password will help, since it didn't work the first ti [05:20] me. [05:20] Or I was thinking of using a capture card instead?

[05:31] beefknuckle, i just deleted a few folders thinking that i had backed them up to my other HDD but it turns out that i did not, i recently moved to linux from windows so i'm completely new to this but i was wondering if there is an app to recover those folders?

[05:32] yea i want to recover the files inside the folders [05:33] Infam0us, try this link. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery [05:33] Infam0us sometimes when you put in your Ubuntu CD you get the option to run it as a "live CD" to help recover lost files [05:33] be careful not to do many if any writes to your hdd [05:33] does anyone have experience with qjackctl?

After selecting Ubuntu from grub.. Ubuntu logo screen comes but after that my screen goes blank and power LED in it starts blinking [05:38] I changed the settings in qjackctl to get the lowest latency, then it appeared to have had a bad effect on all the input jacks on my computer [05:38] and now everything pops and is unclean [05:39] there is no qjackctl in my home directory [05:39] SmoothSage: what graphics card are you using?

[05:40] graphic card one offcourse [05:41] Can anyone please tell me if there is a way to display folder size in Nautilus like in Windows Explorer? [05:41] SmoothSage: boot to root recovery mode, there may be a command to set the resolution and such [05:41] shape: isn't it the same method? [05:41] Well I just decreased the sample rate, i wasn't expecting it to do this [05:42] ActionParsnip, It only displays no.# of items in the folder, under "Size". Not the actual size in MB. [05:42] shape: http://imagecdn.maketecheasier.com/2009/08/gchrome-nautilus2.jpg yes, 9.8Mb in that example [05:42] Im trying: apt-get dist-upgrade to upgrade phpmyadmin now. [05:42] Mischinka: what version of ubuntu are you using? "lsb_release -sc" if you aren't sure [05:42] ActionParsnip, i have two machines in front of me..i am talking from other machine.. lemme reboot it .. i have very less idea abt command u stating.. will you help me in realtime [05:42] ActionParsnip, I am asking if there is a way to see the folder size in MB under "Size" without clicking on properties. [05:43] i have a question guys. i see two Nvidia's in the Additional Drivers: one says (version current) which i activated and the other says (post-release-updates) (version-current-updates). what's the difference? [05:43] ActionParsnip, So I could sort them and see which one is taking the most space. [05:43] Precise [05:43] qubuntu: post-release means it was added after the ubuntu release (ubuntu didn't use to do such things) [05:43] hi where does the file etc/foomatic/filter.conf come from? using 12.04 [05:44] This has been a most illuminating experience chatting with you guys, but if I don't come to bed now I'm going to have to sleep on the couch. Goodnight. [05:44] qubuntu, good question, ActionParsnip i did the same thing last time when my machine was running.. i chose version current and now my display just doesn't come [05:44] Mischinka: it will only upgrade to the newest version in the repos. which is normally older then whats out there [05:44] i think i should have selected post-release-update one... [05:45] beefknuckle: good night [05:45] zykotick9 should i activate the post-release one too then? my brightness doesn't change from the slider, and maybe this could be the problem. [05:45] shape: you'll need something like: du --max-depth=1 /home/ | sort -n -r [05:45] qubuntu: you could try it? no idea, if it will help. [05:45] ActionParsnip, Oh, in command line, yes. But I cannot understand how Windows Explorer does it so easily yet Nautilus can;t? [05:45] shape: obviously change /home/ for the folder you want to query. E.g: du --max-depth=1 /home/$USER/Downloads/ | sort -n -r [05:46] ok zykotick9 thanks. [05:46] shape: Windows doest, it will ALWAYS show folders first [05:46] *doesn't [05:47] shape: isn't there an app called disk usage that can tell you how large a folder is? [05:47] ActionParsnip, http://windows.iusethis.com/screenshot/windows/foldersize.png [05:47] ActionParsnip, if you click on the folder size tab you can easily sort by the size of the folder [05:47] switching between Windows on ubuntu is fun. :D [05:48] ex-chat [05:48] shape: I'm on XP right NOW. I clicked view -> arrange icons by size and the folders are the top, then the files [05:48] bohemian9485, yep. But I wanted to do it in Nautilus. [05:49] ActionParsnip, I think there is some miscommunication going on. Let's say Folder 1 is 20 MB, and Folder 2 is 500MB. I want to see this in Nautilus without having to click properties. Like in this picture here: http://windows.iusethis.com/screenshot/windows/foldersize.png [05:49] that url is not workinghere for me shape [05:50] Whats the difference between apt-get dist-upgrade | and | do-release-upgrade ? [05:50] shape: shape in windows XP, the folders are not part of the arrangement, so if you have a file of 80Gb and a folder totalling 2Gb, the folder will always be top, as it is a folder [05:50] Mischinka, do-release executes aditional scripts [05:50] dr_willis, http://www.megaleecher.net/uploads/folder-size.jpg [05:50] Mischinka: dist-upgrade will not ctake you to the next release [05:51] do-releasae upgrades from 11.04 to 12.04 for example [05:51] ActionParsnip, yes, I understand that. I am not asking about the files. I just want to see the folder size. Here is a different picture: http://www.megaleecher.net/uploads/folder-size.jpg === Granis` is now known as Granis [05:51] shape: never noticed that in a default windows setup [05:51] Mischinka: dist-upgrade is the same as full-upgrade (with aptitude), so it means update EVERYTHING. NOT related to updating to a new version of ubuntu at all. [05:52] dr_willis, but can you do that in Nautilus? [05:52] shape never noticed it . that could slow things down a whole lot. [05:53] How do I upgrade to phpMyAdmin 3.5.1 on ubuntu 12.04? [05:53] ActionParsnip, should i chose dpkg in recovery mode ? [05:53] Mischinka: what's wrong with the version in the repo? [05:54] dr_willis, Well, it doesn't. I think it's cached once it reads it. Because I used windows a whole lot and it's not slow at all. OS X has that too. So how come Nautilus or Thunar don't have it? [05:54] I'm getting this message: The phpMyAdmin configuration storage is not completely configured, some extended features have been deactivated.

[05:54] ActionParsnip, Yeah, I read that, and they are saying it's not possible :( [05:56] dr_willis, Strange, because I use that all the time! So you can see which folder is taking up space. i.e. Movie folder 1 vs movie folder 2. etc. [05:56] does ubuntu 12.04 LTS have classic GNOME style? [05:56] rek_007 you faggot!

[05:57] !notunity | REK_007 sorta... [05:57] REK_007 sorta...: 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 [05:57] learn to love unity. ;) [05:57] Artemis3: am using xubuntu .... actually just came across an article ..

[06:07] arizona_bay: check the detailed vlc docs at its homepage? [06:07] ActionParsnip, perhaps switching to the distro that defaults to cinnamon will get you support there?

[06:07] REK_007, So what do you want to do to xfce that is not working. [06:07] arizona_bay, JustinTV's streaming software works on Windows. They don't have it for Linux. But, you could try running it through Wine. Check app compatibility on winehq.org [06:08] shape: just compiz .. that about it rest am happy with xubuntu so far :) [06:08] sheldon420 they said it would be too slow [06:08] Artemis3: I like Unity, I also use LXDE [06:08] i dont want it to lag either [06:08] arizona_bay: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1023409 [06:09] actionparsnip you faggot!

Unless JustinTV releases a native Linux version of their streaming app, you'll have to rely on alternatives that are more Linux friendly. I'd recommend giving Veetle a try. [06:09] !ops [06:10] REK_007, You could ask in the xfce channel. I'm sure they can help, since it's an xfce thing.

But OP was asking about the software they use to allow one to stream. [06:11] Sheldon420: ahhhh [06:11] arizona_bay, What do you mean? Open source is a bad thing? [06:12] no but it can be only for the "smart" users [06:12] like ive seen streaming software that are soooooooo freakin flexible [06:12] arizona_bay: you can make an MTP with mediatomb, or use vlc.... [06:12] ActionParsnip, That is Windows (maybe Mac, not sure) only. And it's too slow on Wine, apparently. Hence, I suggested Veetle, which I've used to stream quite well on Linux. [06:12] that to do slightest thing [06:12] you have to make so many commands [06:12] i prefer usesless specialised stuff :P rather than one software that does it all [06:12] arizona_bay: never had an issue, xbmc provides an MTP too.. [06:13] arizona_bay, What does that have to do with Open Source? So if Mozilla is open source or Chromium, it has to be for "Smart" users? My grandma uses mozilla. [06:13] ActionParsnip im trying to use VLC i have no idea how to set it up [06:13] shape: you can't use Mozilla, it's a company... [06:13] it was my initial question [06:13] arizona_bay: I gave a link [06:13] arizona_bay, you are welcome to code your own, and fix the problem.

[06:14] arizona_bay, you can also fund a project to let ppl who know how to code do it for you [06:14] actionparsnip im trying to find it :x [06:14] arizona_bay: after install VLC from ubuntu software center .. i dont find a lot of difference between VLC windows and Lnux .. if you know to setup on windows then its same here ...

There are tonne of how to guides, or you could have simply had a flick through the menus in vlc and bumped into the settings [06:20] and you need to do this streaming why? [06:20] V_V I tried before coming here and crying [06:20] and u know what [06:20] not one vlc is the same [06:20] arizona_bay, the script is only to save you from typing the options again and again, its not really a script but rather a glorified shortcut [06:20] a lot of stuff they talk about i cant see em [06:20] arizona_bay: it may not be 100% the same, abstract what they say a little [06:20] vlc settings dialog had an advanced toggle button i recall [06:21] Is there a way to tell, using Terminal commands, what desktop environment is currently loaded? [06:22] cypher-neo: with vnc and other tools, you could have moire then one loaded at a time [06:22] dr_willis, Good point... [06:23] dr_willis, I wrote a BASH script for tweaking the mouse cursor / changing themes. But the last statement is unique to my desktop environment. [06:23] and you can run kde apps on gnome and visa versa. ;) [06:23] cypher-neo, echo $DESKTOP_SESSION should tell u [06:23] ActionParsnip dr_willis I can finally adjust the brightness on my Sony VAIO thanks to your help and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Laptop/Sony/Vaio/FSeries/Oneiric#LCD :) === Gallomimia_ is now known as Gallomimia [06:23] cypher-neo, Type "echo $DESKTOP_SESSION" into terminal and it will tell you. [06:24] dr_willis, Because I use gnome-shell, running "compiz --replace" (a command which would work in Unity) tends to nuke things because gnome-shell doesn't use compiz. [06:24] Sheldon420, Thanks! That works. [06:24] Sheldon420, Now I'll make an elif statement based on that...

They make ridiculous amounts of noise. [06:25] I mean good sounds [06:25] how do we use the find command but exclude any sub directories with a specific name? [06:26] Brun0L3z, What? Like chirping sounds? [06:26] Good sounds like you can find here: http://www.freesound.org/people/Anton/sounds/137/ [06:26] a burping keybord [06:26] Oh [06:27] I thought i could just get a sound file and do some stuffs and make it play to any key letter i press [06:27] Brun0L3z, You could... but it's much easier and more memory efficient to get a mechanical keyboard. lol [06:27] 'do some stuffs' - its most likely possible.. but ive never bothered [06:28] cypher-neo: Thanks bro [06:28] Brun0L3z, I had an idea for a BASH script related to your idea... [06:28] Brun0L3z, this sounds close: http://askubuntu.com/questions/16992/how-can-i-listen-on-global-keypress-event [06:28] Brun0L3z, But the more I think about it, it would probably just loop that sound file over and over until you got sick of it. [06:28] cypher-neo: hahahahahha [06:29] cypher-neo: but atleast can i add it to my pidgin chat so that each time a friend is typing a message i can get the sound?

Do you have any other recommendations for me? [06:48] I think you can just apt-get install x11vncserver or something like that and tehn It's just a matter of a cryptic x11vnc command line entry and you can log in with teh ssh viewer from any ubuntu terminal [06:48] alusion [06:48] alusion: i'd use vino. A lot of the time vnc isn't needed [06:48] !vnc [06:48] VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.

[07:00] ActionParsnip: Stallman like MIT's "hacker" culture. Nowadays, hacking and criminality are synonymous. That never used to be though. In past, it meant something else. [07:00] ActionParsnip: but this is the problem, that when I do "su - user", than variables from /etc/environment are not visible for some reasons [07:01] I am sure wdd meant movie-like criminal hacking though… hmm. [07:01] ActionParsnip, now it works..so might be graphic drivers? [07:01] dr_willis: i mean list with running programs [07:01] dailylinux: or compiz config [07:02] strixbg: how are you seeing this list? [07:02] _ruben: but this is exactly the problem I have, when I am loging with user as usual I see variables from /etc/environment, but with "su -user" they are not visible...

I hate compiz [07:04] tehowe: As in criminal? [07:04] wdd: It means 150 as a floating point number.

[07:05] lol i just realised the overlay scrollbar has page-up/down on click!! :P [07:05] wdd: That is a typecast. That would probably result in the same in a lot of cases. Doing something like (int) 150f would have surprising results though. [07:05] Keshi: Hacklabs are local maker-like cooperatives that try to foster tech startups, people messing with Arduino stuff as one example here in Toronto [07:06] ARTSIOM: why add the hyphen to the command? [07:06] tehowe: Oh, aye, we do not have them here as far as I know. I have never heard the term before. Probably none in Aus.

[08:17] here one [08:17] @guestsXYZ: using modified names might help [08:17] Guest88215: that would be 12.04, wouldn't it? [08:17] yes [08:18] all settings are default, as i cant change them [08:18] Guest88215: what is the exact title of the settings window please? [08:18] System Settings [08:19] Guest88215: you may need to look for an "unlock" or "edit" button to change them (perhaps it's something that needs you to enter your user password one more time to change the settings) but you could wait a few tens of minutes here so someone who uses gnome gives a better reply [08:19] Hmmmn, heard my local freegeek recycle/rebuild place is still on 11.04... have to find out what their local stability questions are... I asked one guy if he's waiting for 12.04.1, response was unclear [08:19] I'm not using gnome so I'm not very aware of what needs to be done here [08:20] Guest88215: i noticed only partly filled 'system settings' as well - but only if i choose xfce or lx on login - while it is proper filled in gnome-shell & unity. thats why i was asking for yourdesktop-environment [08:20] I'm a complete noob to linux, so how can i access the settings without that window?

[09:04] Testing our projects live dvd. [09:04] 1) Using a laptop, and when i connect to a 24" monitor, with only that monitor active. Then deattach it, my laptop screen wont reappear without a reboot [09:05] 2) It crashes when i boot after suspension. [09:06] Foxboron: does your laptop have a fn + f? key that will switch video output? [09:06] Foxboron: the answer is always yes... a better question is have you tried using that instead? [09:06] channel [09:06] L3top: what do you mean. i am not deaf. i got the sound waves. [09:07] userprecise: figure of speech. You had no audio... [09:07] L3top, yes it does, and i didnt think that key worked in Ubuntu. [09:07] I gonan try that fix next time i am by my monitor. Thanks ^^ [09:08] Foxboron: is it suspending or hybernating when you cant get back. Hybernation is always glitchy... on most OS's I find. [09:09] L3top: thanks [09:10] hi all [09:10] np [09:10] anybody tried ubuntu mail server on virtualbox? INternet will be through Host XP [09:11] !anybody | linocisco [09:11] linocisco:why not, the vm can be connected via a bridged interface [09:11] linocisco: 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. [09:12] Hi All, Looking for help installing 12.04 dual boot with w7, freezes when asking where are you using cd, freezes at copy docs & setting using wubi [09:12] * L3top wouldn't use wubi [09:13] i m amazing bot can speak alot like human [09:14] krababbel, thanks. I made NAT instead of bridge to connect Host XP to ubuntu Server on VM as externa card, Internal interface will be "internal Network" [09:14] L3top: first time I've tried it, always has success using cd method, but this time nothing works, hence coming here for help [09:14] You had issues with the CD as well? Have you checked the md5sum of the image? [09:15] linocisco: they say you shouldn't use double nat though [09:16] krababbel, thanks bro. I will use bridge instead [09:16] L3top: did that, also did the burn as slow as possible, failed with both ubuntu and mythbuntu [09:16] linocisco: also probably it is better to use a virtio adapter instead of the default intel emulation [09:17] Thommo: have you run memtest86? [09:17] linocisco: you can choose adapter type in bridge mode, vlan works too, unless you got a realtek nic on the host :) [09:18] krababbel, virutal adapter for what ? to connect to host? If to host, existing physical network adapter connecting to Internet will be separate [09:18] linocisco: in vbox settings you can choose virtual adapter type [09:19] linocisco: only for bridged [09:19] warfaren: yes tried that too, pc runs fine in window$ and boots into live ok just won't install [09:20] linocisco: I don't know if you can connect through internal type to the internet outside of virtual network [09:21] anyone using Native ZFS? [09:21] linocisco: I'd use two bridged adapters and do routing on the virtual machine for the internal network, i think internal adapter is internal network only [09:21] hey i'm trying to get wifi working with a wna1100 .. ive installed ath9k_htc driver and dmesg shows an error.. any suggestions?

Now I cannot sudo...how do I regain sudo access? [09:24] linocisco: I'm not sure if the guest xp can connect to the internet like that? If it can, then keep internal network type for the second interface [09:24] Crap: why am I getting: [Tue May 15 05:24:41 2012] [warn] _default_ VirtualHost overlap on port 80, the first has precedence [09:25] irkinosor: hi there, I have a problem with my apache2 configuration for local development on my PC.

[09:29] krababbel, thanks for your suggestion. I will try. but the idea is that only server should have internet [09:31] linocisco: if it doesn't work, you can still restrict internet access with doing routing and firewall on the virtual server, i am sure.

In documantation it is said that "-" option will "Provide an environment similar to what the user would expect had the user logged in directly.". But this is not the case for me on 12.04.

[10:46] Vooloo, you can tweak that unity sidebar with my-unity, autohide and more [10:47] autohide is not a solution. can you disable it? [10:48] Vooloo, no, but you might like gnome shell [10:48] !nounity [10:48] 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 [10:48] I have a prob here on ubuntu 12.04. the sound works fine on unity, but very low sound produce when using xfce4 on the same OS. any tips?

[11:18] now a seperate /home/ thats handy.. and a /boot/ that can also be handy. :) [11:19] i create extended partitons for each OS and then create the required partitons in those [11:19] i tend to just use all primaries for my simple needs. ;) [11:20] Dr_willis, i have some problems with repository of medibuntu [11:20] yes good plan [11:20] gabriele93__, ive not needed medibuntu in the last 2 releases. [11:22] can someone help me with changing the expo mode shortcut (alt+shift+up)? i can't find it's shortcut in the keyboard panel [11:23] constantin_mike, it would be in the CCSM tool i imagine. [11:23] !ccsm [11:23] To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' (or 'simple-ccsm' for pre-Oneiric). If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz [11:23] Dr_willis: I had seperate /opt for diskless and /var cause I could I suppose [11:24] gabriele93__, medibuntu repo worke for me i just installed 'hot-babe' from it. ;P [11:24] Dr_willis: thanks === CoM|Disconn is now known as CoM`oFF|Disconn [11:25] I just upgraded from 11.10 to 12.04 using the alt cd. Everything went ok, except I can't log in, after I enter my password, it attempts to continue loading, then returns to the log in screen. I've reset my password in rescue mode, and switched keyboards, so I think something in X is crashing? [11:26] morsnowski: i reused /home once before and it was joy all the way firefox favorites stayed .asound was there and my other ~/tweaks and files of course.

I use it myself and it syncs bookmarks, history, passwords, etc and encrypts everything localy (so it's secure) [11:29] n2diy: did it fix your problem? === Octane is now known as Guest7067 [11:30] DarwinSu1vivor, working on it. [11:30] Bando, will you stop begging people to go to your IRC server.. this is not the right channel for it. [11:30] Darwin and if you reuse your /home its all good ... I know nothing of what you speak but i suppose i could move with the times.. [11:31] rileyp: I'm not saying not to reuse your home, I'm just offering alternatives :) [11:31] you do not want to help. still others want. [11:31] Bando, 'this is not the right channel for such requests' === CoM|Disconn is now known as CoM`oFF|Disconn [11:31] Bando: what you are asking is offtopic for this channel [11:31] DarwinSu1vivor, .config/gnome* isn't working.

[11:33] n2diy: it is quite possible that directory doesn't exist, which is fine [11:34] I want to map a user/group over nfs mount [11:34] so update finished, what a pain to get from 11.10 to 12.04 [11:34] I dont like having to use a "nobody" user [11:34] everythin shows up as nobody over nfsmount for me [11:34] monohedron: fresh installs are always more straightforward [11:35] I read that I need to map a server user to a local user. [11:35] yes but i do ,like to keep the work i've done in the past :) [11:35] using idmapd.conf [11:35] DarwinSu1vivor, no such file or directory. Looking at my files, I see only two directories and they're both encrypted. I thought I told the installer not to encrypt /home, but... there it is. :/ [11:35] monohedron: thats why i keep seperate storage partitions [11:35] idmapd.conf is under /etc/idmapd.conf [11:36] it has some default settings, but they make everything "nobody" [11:36] so do i but then there are settings and scripts and weksites and databases [11:36] anyway it's done and good [11:37] anybody using nfs mount btwÞ [11:37] ? === gara is now known as Guest79672 [11:37] hroi ido [11:38] rileyp: are you using nfs v4?

[11:38] no I edit /etc/exports [11:40] hroi: add the usernames on both sides [11:40] Just realized that "lorem ipsum dolor sit amet" blah blah means nothing [11:41] UidX, well done! [11:41] mardraum: currently I added "archive@kreppa.vedur.is = satellite" on the client side [11:41] mardraum: should I then add.. "satellite@clientmachine = archive" on the server? [11:43] hello, how to install a package in a version more recent than the one in my repository? I am in 10.10 (!) and want to install a package from, let's say, the 12.04 rep, only for this package. [11:43] patc1, short answer.. you dont mixx in packages from other repos for other releases. [11:43] n2diy: please tell me what "ls -la ~/" prints out [11:43] patc1, find a ppa, or use source for your release. [11:44] !10.10 [11:44] Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) was the thirteenth release of Ubuntu. !End-Of-Life on April 10th, 2012, see http://ubottu.com/y/maverick for details. [11:44] Dr_willis: I understand, but this is for testing purpose... and I know it's somehow possible to choose the version of a package... [11:44] how to install 12.04 server using USB keyboard? [11:45] patc1: still not supported [11:45] patc1, and depending on what it is.. can cause total breakage... [11:45] patc1, and 10.10 is EOL. [11:45] I need to temporarily install windows so I can downgrade my hdpvr driver its a .exe file. how do I partition my hard drive so I can install windows temporarily? [11:45] linphone should'nt beak all the thiong ;) [11:45] thing [11:46] patc1: use a supported release and we can help you installing supported packages [11:46] robertzaccour create a partition and when you no longer need it, delete what's on it and use it for something else [11:46] it may depend on dozens of other updated packages that would break stuff. [11:46] I know it's EOL.... this is not the question.... let's say it's a 11.04 install... and I want to test a package from 12.04... the questions remains the same [11:46] patc1: you are running an EOL release which means you are no longer receiving security updates and the help you receive from Ubuntu support channels (such as this one) will be *extremely* limited [11:46] robertzaccour: use gparted to do this [11:47] patc1: the answer remains the same, don't mix releases packages [11:47] !apt | patc1 check the docs I guess if you want to force it. [11:47] patc1 check the docs I guess if you want to force it.: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.

Reboot the machine and all VM details are lost ?!?! Connection to QEMU seems fine, I can see my storage + networks prev defined. TIA. [11:47] patc1 i haven't followed, but i guess it's easier and faster to just install a more recent ubuntu version [11:47] ok thank you for your answers [11:47] best answer would be to use soruce... [11:47] rileyp, I was planning to use gparted. My laptop has only one partition. Will this cause any problems? [11:47] if you cant upgrade. [11:48] This is as per 12.04, virt-manager 0.9.1-1ubuntu5 [11:48] robertzaccour, you mean one hard drive? it would be weird that a system has only 1 partition these days [11:48] robertzaccour: why not install it in a vm that way grub wont be destroyed [11:48] MonkeyDust: yes of course... but it's a question of principle... to know howto do it... to test a package that could be "better" in a new distro, without changing the whole distro [11:48] robertzaccour you can use gparted to create more partition, or fdisk if you prefer the CLI [11:49] patc1: you will very likely run into dependency issues (thus breaking your system) [11:49] patc1 this is the support channel, principles and opinions can be discussed in #ubuntu-offtopic [11:49] MonkeyDust, will partitioning the partition that I'm currently using make it unusable? [11:49] MonkeyDust: OK, understood! [11:49] robertzaccour: just use a windows pc installing doze after buntu is messy as winblows is silly and cant see ubunru so then when your finished installing windows you need a buntu cd to fix teh boot menu === mrmist_ is now known as mrmist [11:50] thanks all [11:50] robertzaccour: you can't alter a partition that is mounted (in use) [11:50] cya [11:50] robertzaccour: then grub menu will offer windows or ubuntu... [11:51] auronandace, oh ok. Maybe I can use vmware [11:51] robertzaccour: you can do the shrinking etc with a live cd (even easier with a usb...) they seem to boot for me with less crashes Ive lost my cd burning foo years ago [11:52] sem to only burn drink coasters these day... [11:52] robertzaccour: why vmware? virtualbox and qemu are available in the repos [11:52] rileyp, oh ok didn't think about that. I'll just boot up the live cd thanks [11:52] Wondering about a version for an older laptop, I get an error when loading 10.10 or 11.10 [11:53] should say, trying to install [11:53] L0tt0, have you tried 12.04? [11:53] L0tt0: we can't help regarding 10.10, its end of life [11:53] no, I haven't [11:53] auronandace, is vmware easy to use? [11:53] L0tt0: are you suing a cd or a usb ? [11:54] CD [11:54] *using [11:54] robertzaccour: virtualbox is easy, i've never used vmware (closed source) [11:54] Id try a usb stick [11:54] why? [11:54] I think vmware is a better product, but it is certainly hard to argue with the open sourceness of virtualbox. It is however owned by oracle, which is one of the 7 deadly sins,. === yougg_ is now known as yougg [11:55] I imagine installing via usb or sd card would be faster, being that SSD is faster than HDD [11:55] robertzaccour: the end-user solutions of vmware are pretty straight forward - mostly easy to use - at least if you know what kind of network connectivity models exists between vm & host [11:55] well every cd I have burnted after lucid crashes for me and every usb stick I install with any version of buntu works first time everytime [11:55] geekbri: gpl rather nullifies the oracle argument [11:55] the story is, I am using Ubuntu 11.10 on two desktops, very happily. I recently aquired an old W98 laptop I would love to run it on also [11:55] auronandace: in a way. Oracle finds a way to destroy projects slowly anyhow. [11:55] but get an error about a missing module [11:56] was wondering if there was a app that would remove vocals from audio/mp3 ? [11:56] i think vmware might be overkill, if your want to check out an OS virtualbox will do that nicely [11:56] I just need to use VirtualBox long enough to boot into windows, install a driver on my HD-PVR, and thats it [11:56] L0tt0: are you suing i386 ...? [11:56] *using again Doh! [11:56] geekbri: if virtualbox was under a big enough threat it would get forked (just like libreoffice) anywho this is getting a little offtopic [11:57] rileyp, typing on a touch screen? haha [11:57] how can i installa gnome 3 on ubuntu?

[12:27] sorry :) === hybrid_ is now known as o0o0o [12:29] reynir, thats the 'hud' the MyUnity, or ubuntu-tweak tools have a toogle button for it.. but i like the Hud. :) [12:30] Dr_willis: Does that mean I have to install a *tool* to change that setting? [12:30] ;( [12:30] reynir, myunity is in the repos. Ubuntu-tweak is not. [12:31] it would seem to be a problem of the hi-fi system, but it works fine and play audio loud from my laptop. The hifi is connected to my computer (an iMac, I repeat) via the "headphones" hole, with a 3.5mm cable. This problem is present even if I boot from the livecd and i play audio from it. So please give me some advices about what to do, and sorry for my not very good english :) [12:31] hello to anyone listening... I want to dual boot asus tf101 with OLife from lilstevie to install ubuntu on my deviice, but the link is down... anyone would like to suggest me where to find it?

[12:31] hello to anyone listening... I want to dual boot asus tf101 with OLife from lilstevie to install ubuntu on my device, but the link is down... anyone would like to suggest me where to find it? [12:31] which player can play TS movie files that recorded with dvbt? [12:32] SajjaD, ive seen very few things that VLC cant play [12:32] There's no way to remove it without installing Yet Another Tool© [12:32] questionmark* [12:32] reynir, you got your answer.. and now you want to argue.. [12:32] SajjaD havent tried, but VLC is a devil-do-all [12:32] You could mess with gconf settings and potentially break stuff i guess. [12:32] Sorry, I don't want to argue. I just have another question [12:32] VLC didn't work for me [12:33] MyUnity has to many features - it should be included by default. [12:33] Dr_willis: Ok thanks for your help! [12:33] so many. :) [12:33] Hopefully in the next release we will get away from the 700mb cd limit. [12:34] Dr_willis, i hope not. i still have a cake that neess to go === levlandau is now known as Guest24171 [12:34] the cake is a lie! ;P [12:34] what program can convert TS movie files ? [12:34] :) [12:34] SajjaD try devede [12:34] SajjaD, ffmpeg, mencoder, arista, winff, [12:34] never heard of a 'ts movie file' [12:35] if vlc cant play it - it must be some very special codec. :) [12:35] Dr_willis: telescreen :) [12:35] hmm - having trouble mounting my usb pen drive in 12.04 [12:35] Dr_willis: its just a description about the quality of the copy [12:35] can anyone help me with my question? :) [12:35] SajjaD i used devede to convert VTS files to avi [12:35] I have yet another question. I cannot start the program 'update-manager'. When I start it from a terminal it just silently exits. I think it has been like this for a very long time (I usually use the terminal anyway) [12:35] are there any known issues mounting USB drives? [12:35] !details | shlunk [12:35] shlunk: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version ....

[12:37] i can see it with fdisk -l [12:37] Dr_willis: 10.04.4 has that megaraid_sas driver === jost_ is now known as jost [12:37] shlunk, they may have been just pulled rather then properly removed [12:37] shlunk, thats a good sign. :) [12:37] it's a fat32 drive [12:37] shlunk, try mounting it by hand. see if any errors show up [12:37] hello to anyone listening... I want to dual boot asus tf101 with OLife from lilstevie to install ubuntu on my device, but the link is down... anyone would like to suggest me where to find it? [12:37] rileyp, u still with me ?! [12:37] lusuhard_: What link? [12:38] Dr_willis, r u with me ? [12:38] you could stick them into a windows if you have one. it's less picky [12:38] toughengineer, Huh? [12:38] how do i check to see what type of partion is on my drives in a terminal? [12:38] ZaNeIuM, sudo fdisk -l [12:38] why doesn't 12.04 mount them automatically? [12:38] Dr_willis, i sent u the specification of my laptop [12:38] shlunk, it does mount them automatically here. [12:38] :( [12:38] thx [12:39] toughengineer, and... the problem was? [12:39] toughengineer: I use nvidia and its my forte if I had one and that is debaitable [12:39] ZaNeIuM or sudo blkid [12:39] Haha, I have two swap partitions [12:39] Pici http://lilstevie.geek.nz/ports/OLiFE-Prime-Edition.tar.gz [12:39] rileyp, so intel got no installation package ?! [12:39] Dr_willis: he running in nomodeset and he need help with x [12:40] I belive i mentioned checking the forums or askubuntu.com for that exact intel chipset to see if any known issues are with it. [12:40] rileyp, did u see the log ?! [12:40] MonkeyDust: thx that worked (ext4) [12:40] toughengineer, can you access the ttys [12:40] Pici this is the wiki guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/ASUS_Eee_Pad_Transformer/How_to_install_Ubuntu [12:41] hello everyone, I would like to ask you a question, if that is the right place. I've just done a clean install of ubuntu 12.04 on my iMac, and everything works as it should, except for the audio, that does not work well. If I play audio files without connecting my hi-fi system, the volume is good, loud; but if I connect the stereo, it is incredibly low, and I have to push it to the top to even hear music. [12:41] I use gnome3, and the mixer is set to the maximum; alsamixer is set to the max too. it would seem to be a problem of the hi-fi system, but it works fine and play audio loud from my laptop. The hifi is connected to my computer (an iMac, I repeat) via the "headphones" hole, with a 3.5mm cable. This problem is present even if I boot from the livecd and i play audio from it. So please give me some advices about what to do, and sorr [12:41] y for my not very good english :) [12:41] morsnowski, what is the ttys ? [12:41] toughengineer: yes i did and unless you boot to the issue and paste that log there is no problem... [12:41] press ctrl alt f1 [12:42] guys, any idea if it's possible to make supervisord restart one of it's managed processes when a file is touched? i.e. `touch /tmp/.restart_my_service` leads to supervisord restarting a service ? [12:42] rileyp, so what should i do ? [12:42] morsnowski, u want the terminal ?! [12:42] myrddinemrys765 the channel #ubuntustudio is more multimedia oriented, better ask there [12:42] yes [12:42] perfect, thank you [12:42] toughengineer: Xorg -configure [12:42] morsnowski, u got it [12:43] kernel: [58484.058019] gajim[2523]: segfault at 33 ip 00007ff22d99d755 sp 00007fffa8c6d3c0 error 4 in libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.2400.10[7ff22d92c000+42d000] [12:43] rileyp, how could i ? [12:43] ok for the hell of it can you do a sudo apt-get install -f [12:43] Frantic: if supervisord doesn't support that functionality directly, you could use inotify (or incron) to do it yourself [12:43] toughengineer: go with morsnowski [12:43] morsnowski, install what ?! [12:43] rileyp, okay [12:44] install -f fixes broken packages [12:44] \just cut paste what he typed [12:44] jrib: I'm not sure if it does support it or not, I'm pretty new to supervisord, google hasn't helped me so far :( [12:44] morsnowski, ok [12:44] if a package is broken it may block others from installing properly [12:44] Frantic: well I'd start at http://supervisord.org/ and its man page [12:44] lusuhard_: I think your best bet is to reach out to the developer to find a replacement link. Its really a 3rd party tool that we would barely be able to support here. [12:44] morsnowski, there is none [12:44] whats the output [12:44] morsnowski, i just got a fresh install yesterday [12:45] and from that time i am trying to install the video driver [12:45] ok do an apt-get update [12:45] believe me i had the same issue 3 hours agio [12:45] Pici also his mail is Ot of service (since it was on the same server...) ok thanks anyway [12:45] Reading package lists...

[12:46] rileyp, first cold boot [12:46] well, it was haning because there was some hicup in the /var/lib/dpkg/available [12:46] /var/lib/dpkg/status files [12:47] morsnowski, so ..

If myrddinemrys765 is not using studio, this is the best place for the audio question. [12:48] nano [12:48] do a apt-get update and then run apt-get install -f again === root is now known as Guest34170 [12:48] toughengineer: everyone wants that....

I liked xmms1 and qmmp is bearable, though ugly... I was looking for something simple with a single playlist, queueing etc.... not the crazy advanced 'media center' type tools like audacious or rhythymbox or whatever other kitchen-sink options out there [12:51] already try sudo apt-get install vlc on backtrack [12:51] but i coun't [12:52] i want to install vlc on bactrack4 [12:52] NOT something that requires 'importing' an entire media library, etc [12:52] tomasm-: ..vlc [12:53] T_H_X, vlc for mp3's?????

[12:55] toughengineer, yes [12:55] Guest34170, should work fine.. but BT is not ubuntu. so we dont use BT here... [12:55] Masshuu why not make a launcher and type teh command that works from a terminal into the launcher [12:55] Guest34170: As stated earlier, Backtrack isn't supported in here. Although yes, VLC works in Backtrack. apt-get install vlc [12:55] Guest34170, sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lucid-bleed/ppa || sudo apt-get update || sudo apt-get install vlc vlc-plugin-pulse mozilla-plugin-vlc [12:56] rileyp: because it doesn't reconise the export command [12:56] toughengineer, you know that there is a website dedicated to 'intel on linux'?

[13:04] stephanmg: yes [13:04] stephanmg: the openoffice packages will install libreoffice too [13:04] morsnowski, downloading them by git command !? [13:05] jrib: ah so openoffice is then only a synonym now for libreoffice. tia [13:05] !ooo | stephanmg [13:05] stephanmg: LibreOffice is a Free and open source office suite that includes word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, vector drawing and database components.

It finishes... and on next boot, fsck starts again. [13:13] mors_gone, ok .. have a good day [13:14] hi all. just a question concerning upstart: if a configuration has been found in /etc/init/ would this always be preferred over classic sysvinit, or should i disable the old sysvinit script after migration to upstart?

[13:17] but how to record stream in a particular flash frames in websites === jao is now known as Guest49522 [13:18] Hello, my vbox install of ubuntu 12.04 does fsck on reboot EVERY TIME. How do I stop this? I let it finish, next boot it wants to run again. [13:18] hello is there a room for lamp? [13:19] nicastor: ask your question here. If it's more appropriate somewhere else, we'll redirect you (there's #httpd, ##php, and #mysql) [13:20] thanks jrib [13:20] fsckproblem, can't find any solutions for stopping fsck in a VM. [13:21] jrib: tyvm I'll look it up [13:21] hello there [13:21] can i convert a primiry partition to logical partition ?? [13:22] Hi, may i ask if how to extract this random string "IbkAXOmEHpY" from multiple "watch?v=IbkAXOmEHpY&" or "watch?v=&" from a file, [13:22] Oer, it happened in reality, too (remastersys CD prepared in vbox and installed on flash card). [13:22] Guest49522: grep $11charstring $file [13:22] jrib: is there a free alternative? [13:23] un_bagels: there are some clients in the repositories like inadyn and ddclient. dyndns.org *is* free [13:23] Oer, may it have to do with the file system type? I do use ext2, and in this thread another guy had a similar problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1606034 [13:23] i want only the 11 character string not all the lines, contain the string [13:23] weox: not really, why would you want to? === ernesto_ is now known as seraph1 [13:23] un_bagels: oh sorry. Try dyndns.com (maybe .org is something else) [13:23] by the way thanks @ikonia for the reply hope [13:24] jrib my band, i went to some other site. [13:24] *bad [13:24] zykotick9 : i have 4 primiry partition ,, i should convert 1 of those !! for creating new partition (i should create new one , no resize ) === niko__ is now known as Red-XIII [13:25] weox: if you are already at teh 4 primary limit - you need to delete one (or more), create an extended partition, then create as many logicals inside that extended that you want. good luck. [13:26] Why do I get on booting the message that "/dev/sda1 was not cleanly unmounted" (followed by fsck)? How do I check & prevent this? [13:26] un_bagels: hmm, looking at the site now, it looks like it's not free anymore. Try no-ip.com [13:26] jrib it looks like they charge now, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DynDNS I went to the right site, dyn.com, unless I'm mistaken? [13:26] fsckproblem: how are you shutting down the system? [13:26] jrib no-ip.com aye [13:26] Is anyone experiencing some bad lagging problems since upgrading to 12.04? Like when switching windows or using alt-tab [13:27] zykotick9: I changed Unity to LXDE, I am using the shutdown button, it seems the system goes down normally from the other messages. Any logfiles to check? === workcjk_ is now known as workcjk [13:27] Anomie21, Ive seen weird things happen from upgrades, so now I always install from scratch [13:27] fsckproblem: by "shutdown button" do you mean software or the button on the computer? [13:28] compdoc: I had a feeling that was the answer I was going to get, lol [13:28] i can't upgrade version 11.10 to 12.04 LTS [13:28] zykotick9, pardon the unclarity, I mean the software button. [13:28] fsckproblem: :) ok - just checkin'. Sorry i don't have any suggestions - good luck. [13:30] fsckproblem, the system does in fact halt? [13:30] zykotick9, thank you for trying, and it also happens on "sudo shutdown -r now" from the terminal. [13:30] escott, it does in fact halt in a "civilized" way. [13:31] fsckproblem, how are your hard disks connected to the system? nothing strange (like a raid controller) or anything? === MartinS is now known as Guest72771 [13:32] escott, this happened on two installs: 1. vbox, 2. created from it - on a flash card. I am using ext2, may this be a problem? I see this, but cannot comprehend how it is related: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1606034 [13:32] hello. I burnt a cd using nautilus... the burn process terminated successfully. I can see the burnt part of the disc, but when I try to mount the disc mount asks me for a filesystem type... what should i give it?\ [13:32] fsckproblem: do you happen to have a /forcefsck file currently? === esm is now known as Guest27067 [13:33] Ph03b3: audio cd or data cd? [13:33] zykotick9, no, not currently. I tried that, however, already - no good. [13:34] fsckproblem: that /forcefsck shouldn't be there... so that's a good thing. [13:34] Hey! What is the default root password on a fresh 12.04 LTS installation ? I have the password working for the user, but I cannot use "su" with any passwords I had on the top of my mind. [13:34] !noroot | lpapp [13:34] lpapp: We do not support setting a root password. You're free to do it on your own machine, but please don't offer instructions on how to set a root password or ask for help with setting it. See !root and !wfm for more information. [13:35] lpapp, use sudo [13:35] zykotick9, i did not specify that, but it contains pictures. [13:35] lpapp: Root doesn't have any default password, if you'r asked for a password to gain root acess, it should be the password of the first user created [13:35] DJones: nope, I tried that [13:35] zykotick9, another weirdness: when I boot from elsewhere and fsck the drive manually, for the NEXT boot, there is no problem. So the fs is marked clean. But when I reboot again... again there is no clean unmount of /dev/sda1. [13:35] DJones: Authentication failure [13:35] same password works for the current user [13:35] dmesg has 574.391628] ISOFS: Unable to identify CD-ROM format. [13:35] even for sudo [13:36] and I was asked for only one password while creating the user during the installation. [13:36] lpapp: have you changed your computer's name by chance? [13:36] zykotick9: from what ? It is a brand new installation [13:36] it was automatically filled in after the first lineedit. [13:36] lpapp: ok, not applicable then. [13:36] fsckproblem, is your flash card being properly unmounted on the host [13:37] fsckproblem: i'd say "something" is not right with your shutdown then??? [13:37] how can I regain the root password without a live CD ? [13:37] escott, no. neither vbox install nor flashcard install are being cleanly unmounted. both are (were) ext2 - the flash card fs got corrupted over time (10-15 uses max). [13:38] lpapp: there is no root password on ubuntu - are you using ubuntu or something else? [13:38] this installation seems to be error-prone. [13:38] lpapp, there is no root password. the sudo system is set to use the initial user as the one with sudo rights. [13:38] zykotick9: Ubuntu 12.04 like I said. [13:38] lpapp, what else have you done since the install? [13:38] lpapp: sorry, you did say that. my bad. [13:38] Dr_willis: Quick question, what do you use the HUD for? [13:38] Dr_willis: reboot [13:38] zykotick9, thank you, but how do I see WHAT is wrong with my shutdown? :) May it be some daemon that sticks to the disk too long? How do I see it?

[13:39] reynir, with it you can access the programs menu items, without neeidng the mouse easially. it even shows system wide menus and other idems. Theres a site that details huds features. I think it was the webupd8 blog site. [13:39] I have been using Linux for 10+ years, and it has never happened so far :) [13:39] Really, I just created a user that is all [13:39] reynir, for example you want the 'monitors' setting tool.. hit alt, enter 'mon' it should show up [13:39] I had an arch installation before, but I selected the format option for each partition. [13:39] escott, I guess there was a misunderstanding: There were TWO SEPARATE installs: one is in Virtualbox, sticking to a VDI. THE OTHER was the flashcard, going "live" as ONLY os. [13:40] fsckproblem, ok [13:40] and even the previous root password for Archlinux does not work [13:40] but it should be a brand new installation [13:40] I think it is a problem with the installation, but I cannot localize this :( [13:40] lpapp: as the user you want to sudo with, in a terminal type "groups" - is admin listed? [13:40] escott, the flash card died. But vbox is still operational. [13:40] Dr_willis: Ok thanks! [13:40] zykotick9: there is an "adm" [13:40] lpapp: not the same! [13:40] Video of Huds features ---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_WW-DHqR3c [13:41] zykotick9: sorry ? [13:41] lpapp: oh wait - in 12.04 the sudo group requirement might be different. ignore me.

[13:41] su does not. [13:41] Flywater, anything you want.. it searches the system menus/apps [13:41] why jack dosen't run? [13:42] lpapp, thats by design.. you DONT su to root by default [13:42] lpapp: su shouldn't work - root password is not supported on ubuntu [13:42] huh ? [13:42] can it search files? [13:42] Dr_willis: have you ever seen a linux installation ? [13:42] lpapp, thats by design.. you DONT su to root by default in UBUNTU [13:42] zykotick9: it did work with the previous 12.04 installation fyi [13:42] lpapp, yes.. and you are not listing to us.. Ubuntu does NOT use su to get root access by design [13:42] lpapp, you use 'sudo' as needed to get root access [13:42] zykotick9: though I have not created user at the time, but after the installation on the running system [13:42] lpapp, what does "sudo su"? You surely become root that way. [13:42] lpapp you can *switch* to after you logged in, but you cannot login as root [13:43] How can we make intermediete DNS server cache multiple IP for a hostname ( when DNS roundrobin loadbalancing is used) [13:43] ubuntu doesn't have root [13:43] sudo su - is not the proper way to get a root shell. [13:43] fsckproblem: MANY thanks! [13:43] 'sudo -s' or 'sudo -i' is normally used [13:43] sudo su can have unexpected side effects. [13:43] sudo is fine [13:43] Flywater: ubuntu has root, its just disabled by default [13:43] MonkeyDust: nobody spoke about root login. Do not mix up [13:43] I mentioned "su" on a running system [13:44] you can su to other users. but not to root. since theres no default root password.

If I create a new partition table, it only splits it up so I can resize them, and doesn't remove XP entirely, right? I'd rather not lose XP if at all possible. [16:34] chosig: strange, it worked the first few times, but now it no longer shows up [16:37] thebwt: Didn't work from the start here... wonder if it's a Mudlet or a Gnome thing [16:38] TehCraw, it can resize.. but id suggest making backups. [16:38] I've been trying to install 12.04 server to an old HP ML570 g2 for days now. I can get as far as installing and setting everything up, but grub won't load when I reboot. I'm pretty sure something doesn't like to load grub from the mbr. I've tried specifying /dev/Isfeld-BIGGUY (the /root partition for the install), but grub gives an error installing there. Does anyone have any ideas? [16:38] TehCraw, normally its best from windows to scandisk, defrag, then use the ubuntu installer to resize. (or a gparted live cd) [16:39] mikere: does your BIOS has any "virus protection" option - this typically blocks things from being installed to MBR [16:39] Okay, thank you, sir. :) [16:42] Dr_willis: i have a not working grub because installing ubuntu on gpt disk === Wouter__ is now known as Wouter_afk [16:43] zykotick9: No AV. [16:43] zykotick9: It's a raid 5 array on an HP 5300 series controller, which might be the problem, I've googled my fingers off trying to find a solution [16:44] zykotick9: I think I just need to install grub somewhere else, but I'm not quite sure where. [16:44] When I try to run "mysql" from my terminal (on Ubuntu-12.04) , I'm getting following error : Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock (2) . Could anyone help me how to fix it [16:44] siva4080: do you have mysql-server installed? [16:45] zykotick9: it could also be a problem that I'm using LV's on the one partition, but I tried without LV's on the other array on this machine with no joy. [16:45] thebwt: No .. , Now I'm installing [16:46] whats the difference between the desktop iso download and the alternative iso? [16:47] destinydriven, alternate iso comes without any desktop environment, so you are clean and free to choose. [16:48] destinydriven: alternative has text based installer with a few mor features (lvm, raid, full disk encryption) [16:48] more [16:48] Oer: no, that would be the mini iso [16:48] auronandace, ahh thanks [16:48] oh, my bad [16:49] auronandace, I remember downloading and installing an alternate version and wondered what happened to the gui installer. Just wanted to be sure [16:49] I think I officially hate the installer for 12.04. If grub fails to install and you go back to partitioning just to check what the partition names are to try another option, the current installation gets flagged as not partitioned and you can't continue from where you were. [16:50] Yeah I had problems with 12.04 as well.. not sure what happened but I ended up having to remove everything and start from scratch. [16:55] Brasero is slow.. [16:56] Marcappuccino: I use k3b and works fine, but uses qt [16:56] Oh cool. Not sure if Xubuntu has qt libs though. === q0rban is now known as q-rban [16:57] Anyone here familiar with phpmyadmin? [16:59] Well, grub overwriting the mbr succesfully got rid of the system startup utility (HP/Compaq's lame bios setting utility) but it still won't boot [16:59] Mischinka: I've installed it a few times, but I wouldn't say I'm really intimate with it.

[17:08] there are many people like you solderblob [17:08] need more detail [17:08] @ikonia --> thanks [17:09] bye bye [17:09] where do I start? what kind of details. Asus k53s, ubuntu 11.04, nvidia 610m, fresh install, willing to install whatever, or upgrade, have the default drivers installed. tried the xswat, bumblebee and the .run. atm I have a fresh install with the default drivers installed. [17:09] solderblob: is that video card an optimus card ? [17:10] If I don't install grub to the mbr, where can I install it? I have partitions named /dev/Isfeld-BIGGUY and /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 that have both had root file systems installed on them. [17:10] mikere: install it to the mbr or you can't boot it [17:10] can anyone advise me on how to install broadcom drivers on a comp with no internet i have the drivers on disk [17:10] ikonia, I believe it is, not sure how to check. I have read the word optimus a few times around the forums [17:10] solderblob: then you will have a lot of problems with it [17:10] ikonia: well, I think I'm out of luck then. [17:11] solderblob: the optimus support is very weak in linux [17:11] mikere: why ? [17:11] mikere: why can you not install it to the mbr ? [17:11] ikonia, good to know [17:11] ahh, nvidia sucks [17:11] ikonia: I've done that twice and it won't run grub on reboot. [17:11] solderblob: no kidding [17:11] mikere: define won't run grub [17:11] I've been struggling with this shit for about 13 hours [17:11] ikonia: No grub menu when I reboot. [17:11] AMD/ATI is just as bad. [17:12] cryptic: that language is unacceptable and uncalled for [17:12] mikere: ok where did you install it [17:12] mikere: exactly, what device did you install it on [17:12] ikonia: to the mbr on /dev/cciss/c0d0 === BaconAttack__ is now known as BaconAttack_ [17:12] Did anyone get Diablo 3 running on ubuntu yet? [17:12] mikere: ok, that' a HP server, so are you using that device raided [17:13] ikonia: Yep. 2 arrays of raid 5. [17:13] is there a way to make packages not prompt for input (as per dpkg-reconfigure). [17:13] mikere: ok, when you boot what do you get ? [17:13] Varsuchi, check the Wine database [17:13] Good afternoon. Anyone got some knowledge of squid/sarg, or can point in in the right room direction? [17:14] robert__: #squid [17:14] ikonia: the standard no operating system found message [17:14] mikere: ok, so that suggests grub was not actually installed to the boot devices mbr [17:14] mikere: either a.) it didn't go to c0d0 or b.) c0d0 is not the boot device [17:14] Varsuchi, gold platinum gold, sounds promising > http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=13484 [17:15] mikere: which sounds the most realistic ? [17:15] mikere: excuse the interruption, but is the raid volume listed as a possible boot target in the bios? [17:15] ikonia: I'm just finishing installing again - but I've changed the boot device several times previously just to check. [17:15] any help with installing broadcom drivers on comp with no interweb [17:16] mikere: lets see what happens (keep an eye out for any warnings in the install process obviously) [17:16] Heh, this is more encouraging. Now I'm getting a message from my monitor that it can't display this video mode! [17:16] mikere: what version of ubuntu is this ? [17:16] ikonia: 12.04 server === q-rban is now known as q0rban [17:16] mikere: this may sound silly, but in post 2.6.28 kernels the cciss controller referenced disks as /dev/sda rather than the old /dev/cciss/c0d0p$ [17:16] mikere: I'm wondering if it's actually writing to the right place [17:17] ram why is the .run a bad idea? [17:17] solderblob: because it's unsupported [17:17] ikonia: the paritioning and grub are identifying as /dev/cciss/etc [17:17] mikere: that's what's worrying me [17:18] ikonia, unsupported in what sense, by ubuntu? [17:18] mikere: that that should have sopped in (I think it's post 2.6.28) [17:18] solderblob: yes [17:18] why doesnt ubuntu support it? [17:18] because they don't === coalitians is now known as great [17:18] can anyone recommend any file managers besides Nautilus which allows ssh connections? [17:19] ikonia: in any case I've reinstalled, rebooted and instead of not finding OS, I have an error from my monitor that the video mode is not supported, so we must be getting somewhere! [17:19] mikere: well, it sounds like it's started (or tried to) start grub [17:19] but can't display the resolution [17:19] mikere: so there is $something there [17:19] hi [17:20] ikonia: I guess the next step is to boot from cd to command prompt and edit grub.conf for a different video mode? [17:20] mikere: I'm not sure that will matter [17:20] mikere: at that point, that doesn't control the display [17:20] hi [17:21] hi savr [17:21] powertop is showing [17:21] 100.0% Device Audio codec hwC0D0: IDT [17:21] 100.0% Device Audio codec hwC0D3: Intel [17:21] and my fan goes quiet high and stays high [17:21] welcome to ubuntu savr [17:21] googling shows other people experiencing the same [17:22] mc2992: http://naveenubuntu.blogspot.co.uk/2011/01/broadcom-sta-wireless-driver.html [17:22] but not answers [17:22] ikonia: so http://pierre.baudu.in/other/grub.vga.modes.html is going in the wrong direction?

Is there anything I need to keep to decrypt it?

[17:29] ok so I heard (read) somewhere that Ubuntu wants to replace gnome with unity? [17:29] I have to say, 12.04 is working great. I installed via debootstrap, had a little trouble setting up encrypted disks due to update-initramfs not working as expected. Installed lubuntu-desktop, and had some trouble with alsa, which turned out to be my panel applet muting the audio. Lastly, plymouth has a 5-10 second delay before starting the splash and asking for my encryption password, I havent found a fix for it but, Its something I can live with. All in all thi [17:29] s turned out to be a great release and Im very impressed comparing it to 10.04's initial release.

[18:02] sam101, what does ufw status say [18:02] #bshellz [18:03] i chose ubuntu (ubuntu 3d) before logging in, but ubuntu is launching unity 2d anyway. How can i launch 3d? [18:04] my pc is custom build duo-core with nvidia [18:04] morsnowski: i have other ports open in here, now when i did ufw status it only shows the ports that i just opened [18:04] hi...I just installed 12.04. Where can I get a list of the background services so I know what to disable? (like where do I turn off indexing) [18:04] rabbi1, you have xserver-xorg-video-nouveau installed? [18:04] morsnowski: may be there is other firewall blocking me opening the ports [18:04] Why do the fglrx post-release updates keep failing to install? [18:04] sam101, that I can't answer but it is rather unlikely [18:04] rangergord: sudo service --status-all [18:05] morsnowski: ok thank you for trying to help [18:05] i guess you have either the port closed for the protocol or the app isn't listening [18:05] nore, you did install the nvidia 3d drivers? [18:05] It might also work without sudo if you provide the full path, but some services require root to check their status apparently. [18:05] Dr_willis, errr, ... I'm not sure :) [18:05] Hi, how to install quake1 on Ubuntu? [18:05] I cannot find in apt. [18:06] nore, run 'jockey-gtk' and see what it says [18:06] wieczyk: you need to get it externally [18:06] wieczyk, theres some GPL quake ports i belive.. that use the quake data from the original game. or have their own levels. [18:06] ikonia: From where, do you know about any binary packages? [18:06] !games [18:06] Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and http://www.penguspy.com/ [18:06] i set a cron to run every minute but it runs every 12-16 hours any ideas? [18:06] sam101: besides your iptables-issue, your psybnc doesn't listen on 8080 "0 0.0.0.0:13002 " [18:06] morsnowski: iptables -L every line in here is talking about Chain ufw-after-logging-output (1 references) ( ufw) [18:07] wieczyk: I'm sure popular search engines or the vendors website would be a good starting point [18:07] solderblob: yeah [18:07] morsnowski: i mean all the rules on iptable are ufw rules [18:07] !info quake [18:07] quake (source: quake): classic first person shooter.

[18:08] nore, so you got them installed it seems. was this a upgrade or a clean install?

[18:09] nore, as a test. make a new user, see if unity works for them [18:09] I want to disable indexing since I do not need it. [18:09] rangergord, you mean zeitgiest (i never can spell it) [18:09] ive never noticed it causing any extra load/cpu ussage === RobinJ1995 is now known as RobinJ [18:10] by its very definition, it causes that. I'm running Ubuntu in a VM on an SSD. Indexing serves no purpose but cost extra I/O cycles [18:10] http://iloveubuntu.net/add-handy-zeitgeist-powered-dashboard-ubuntu-1204s-gedit [18:10] thanks [18:11] oops wrong paste. ;) [18:11] but it does more then just index files for searces.. its in charge of your history of used files [18:11] Dr_willis: need some pills doc ? [18:11] rangergord, do you use discard for trim? [18:12] Oer: primary OS is Windows (I'm at work and don't pick it). It uses TRIM, yes. [18:12] how can I locate gemfile [18:12] I am new to rails, but I'm trying to install it and need to locate that gemfile and to edit it [18:12] so what determines if my system "needs reboot" i see it tell me this after like every freaking few update i do. kernel was not upgraded, so why reboot needed? :\ [18:13] aleksandar, locate .c [18:14] Dan39, could be some other drivers got updated as well.. ive only noticed it after kernel updates. [18:14] Dan39, ........ what if a few running programs need to be restarted? [18:14] programs like what... most services get restarted on update im pretty sure [18:14] you think i should worry about restarting if no kernel updatE? [18:15] none: /etc/init.d/service restart [18:15] and done [18:15] Dr_willis, windows start button is logging me out instead of showing the launcher === VGoff is now known as VGoff_afk [18:15] nore: this is #ubuntu [18:15] o [18:15] the keyboard key you mean? [18:15] there is no windows start button in ubuntu, is there? [18:16] its ubuntu, not windows [18:16] Dan39, i know, but windows start button/key is used for launching apps isn't it? [18:16] Dan39: I think he means "super" key [18:16] ah [18:16] key [18:16] yea [18:16] Super Key = Windows Logo Key. :) [18:16] Oer can't locate it with locate need someone who is familiar with ror or readmine [18:16] guys, what's the best way to get ffmpeg 0.10.x in 12.04? it ships with ffmpeg 0.8.x :( [18:16] I compiled from source [18:17] Frantic, find a ppa, use source., i recall a ffmpeg script at one time to install the latest.

[18:35] resch: Use a local server instaed of the main one === chris__0076 is now known as chris_0076 [18:35] I have just installed Ubuntu 12.04 on an HP Pavillion laptop with Nvidia, and I have to use an external monitor due to the laptop screen being broken. [18:36] This used to work fine with ubuntu 10.10, and worked with the 12.04 live cd, but does not work when the system reboots into the new install. [18:36] 12.04 is abysmal. It sometimes takes over 10 minutes to start up, and my battery can't charge past 33% no matter how long I leave it plugged in. [18:37] I have NVIDIA [18:37] But it's not an HP [18:37] I use Acer 5755 [18:37] and the xubuntu screensaver is bugged and doesn't show the login window when you wake it up [18:37] hp-problems, try the special fn keys on the laptop. to toggle the displays [18:37] Ten minutes?! [18:37] it's an absolute straight downgrade and I'd rather use 11.10 [18:37] notNicolas, so go use it then... [18:37] Altuorain, yeah and sometimes it just never turns on so I have to turn it off and try again [18:38] My Precise takes about 10 seconds to start up [18:38] notNicolas: This channel isn't a place to make complaints. If you have an actual question, then ask, and we'll try to help. [18:38] Dr_willis - any idea what that key might be? None of them seem to have a symbol that toggles the display [18:38] Altuorain, mine is perhaps 15 [18:38] why is 12.04 so crappy [18:38] hp-problems, no idea. [18:38] notNicolas, works fine for most people. [18:38] Is there a PPA somewhere with Ubuntu themes? I know there are Gnome 3 themes and probably Unity themes available, but it would be so convenient to be able to install a complete theme in one go like you could in Gnome 2 and can in KDE. [18:38] Yeah, I don't know why yours take that long. Ten minutes is too ridiculous. [18:38] hp-problems, go down the row i guess.. [18:38] mine takes 20 seconds [18:38] I was messing with COMPIZ the other day, then apparently learned my Unity is 2D. [18:38] =.= [18:39] b00h00 [18:39] hp-problems, ive seen some nvidia laptops that default to cloneing, untill you install the nvidia drivers, then they select one or the other monitor. had one that always defaulted to the external even if it was not plugged in. [18:39] I'm considering to throw this laptop away and buy one that works better for linux [18:39] What laptop do you use notNicolas [18:39] notNicolas: You are airing an opinion. 12.04 is crappy in your opinion. We are not able to answer why you find it crappy. You will have to ask yourself and solve the problems you are having. [18:39] 12.04 is great to me... [18:39] I think it's just you. [18:39] Dr_willis I would be happy to see it default to the external! The internal is unuseable. [18:40] If I could read the internal display at all, it would be very simple to changed displays. [18:40] hp-problems, the bios shows up on external? there may be some bios settings also. [18:40] Not sure if the bios shows up on external. May try that [18:40] Ah this is the first time I've been on IRC in 8 years. Feels great to be back home. [18:40] hp-problems, ssh in, run the nvidia-settings tool. ;) [18:40] dr_willis I have a fantasy about doxing the staffers and tracking them down one-by-one for a brutal raping! I will take a cialis beforehand and then smoke some meth so that after tying them down to their own beds, I can jizz in and out of their asses all night long until they bleed and their faces are covered in my cum! [18:40] brb guys [18:41] external should show up as a clone from bios also inless the devs been drunk when they made the laptop [18:41] ah a fan [18:41] oldwzd I have a fantasy about doxing the staffers and tracking them down one-by-one for a brutal raping!

[18:43] Is it possible to boot with 11.10 instead of 12.04? [18:44] hp-problems, possible work around. :) install to a usb flash. (on a differnt box perhaps) install nvidia drivers.. set up ssh on it.. boot it.. ssh in, run nvidia-settings tool enable the 2nd monitor.... copy xorg.conf over to the actual install. ;) [18:44] Dr_willis, that's a bit above my pay grade, honestly [18:44] I'm not very happy about the battery being incapacitated too [18:45] i wonder if you can run nvidia-settings over ssh.... [18:45] i know nothing about using ssh [18:45] of all the things, how do they break the kernel to a point where the battery stops working after it was just fine for the last year? [18:45] ssh is worth lerning about. [18:45] yeah, i know. i've just started school in an NSA program, so I am sure I will learn it [18:45] Dr_willis: "ssh -Y foo" does allow nvidia-settings [18:46] spend an hr reading up on ssh.. you will know 90% of what you need. [18:46] notNicolas, do you have laptop-mode-tools installed, for powersaving? [18:46] its that last 10% you spend 90% of the time learning... [18:46] Oer: I'll give it a try [18:47] nvidia also has cli tools to enable the other monitors. [18:47] night all. [18:47] well that's great, but how in the world would i access the cli tools without being able to see my display screen? [18:47] is it possible to edit things from the cli using a live cd?

[18:53] i already have ubuntu 11.10 installed, so I just make another partition and install ubnutu 12.04 there? [18:53] Or should I just upgrade to 12.04? I wanted to test it first..

[19:09] hi! is the current release code name Pangoline Precise the same as version 12.04 LTS Precise ? [19:09] !12.04 | dat789 [19:09] dat789: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1204 [19:09] dat789: yes. [19:09] scriptwarlock: are you saying when in the GUI you cannot uninstall and packages [19:09] Pici: but the code name on my machine is different [19:09] What do I need to install to be able to run Java applications in 12.04? [19:10] dat789: What does it say? [19:10] Pici: so i'm not sure if i've got the latest one [19:10] why dont you guys all switch to microsoft? [19:10] kurtwp_, i installed something that has unmet deps [19:10] gunk13: if MS is your answer - you didn't understand the question. [19:11] lsb_release -a says "Ubuntu 12.04 LTS; Codename: Precise" [19:11] According to the forums Time::HiRes is included in the Perl package, but I can't use it - Perl can't find Time/Hires.pm . Am I missing something? [19:11] dat789: Thats normal. [19:11] scriptwarlock: and now you cann remove it via term window or ubuntu package manager [19:11] gunk13, buy me microsoft product and I'll use it :) [19:11] kurtwp_, aborted the installation and the deps keeps displaying via update manager but i want this to remove [19:11] Pici: So, Precise = Precise Pangolin ? [19:11] dat789: You're running the latest release. Yes. [19:12] hi people! [19:12] scriptwarlock: did you try apt-get autoremove [19:12] Pici: Alright. Cool. thanks! [19:12] i have a problem! can't upgrade ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04! [19:12] not show upgrade to version in download manager [19:12] kurtwp_, the package is not installed of course apt-get -f displays the deps but i want it to abort and clean [19:13] nick, i'll send it to you [19:13] CaBeTuX, that will only change once we are up to 12.04.1 [19:13] morsnowski: no. Thats 10.04 you're thinking of. [19:13] you can force over a terminal [19:13] Never mind, wrong capitalisation :*) [19:13] well why install a os that no one knows how to use [19:13] Pici, OK I stand corrected [19:14] scriptwarlock: [19:14] gunk13: Do you actually have something Ubuntu related to ask? [19:14] not yet [19:14] gunk13, nah im just kidding even if you buy me microsoft product I'd still wont use it. Hope you're trolling cuz if you're not, then I hope you know Windows is behind linux. In fact I've tried Windows 8 Consumer Preview, and it copies Ubuntu's unity effect Lol [19:14] gunk13: Then please keep quiet. [19:15] OMG Dax! Hay que contarte algo importante..

[19:15] kurtwp_, using the apt-get autoremove it only displays unable to locate or couldn't find the package, of course i aborted the installation of that package [19:16] windows is ...... whats the word........ kinda like a badly written java program [19:16] kurtwp_, but a red dot on the top panel keeps displaying the pending deps of that to be installed package [19:16] morsnowski: didn't understand the answer [19:16] so is it easy to figure out? [19:16] windows xp is easy to figure out... if it isn't broken [19:17] CaBeTuX, pici corrected me so please disregard it [19:17] trying to fix a broken windows xp is ........ completely impossible [19:17] scriptwarlock: Well I had issue similar issue and that what I did to get rid of the depends [19:17] and trying to prevent windows xp from breaking randomly is ..... even more impossible [19:17] but is there good midi software for ubuntu? [19:17] nope! lol [19:17] CaBeTuX: update manager -> settings -> release upgrade [19:17] hello, having some trouble getting squid3 set up... client machines are supposed to be set to use a proxy for their updates, but I'm still getting a ton of 403 errors whenever they try to use the squid proxy [19:17] kurtwp_, run aptitude on safe mode? [19:17] what does it say? [19:18] I think I need to add an acl for the local (internal) network, but I'm not sure... [19:18] Windows7 default theme is based off of KDE theme, which has been going around before win7 was even release and now, win8 like I've said earlier is based off of Ubuntu's Unity, which is already out, like Internet Explorer, its been copying from other browsers, lol. If you wanna talk more we can in pm, since this isnt really question/support related topics. [19:18] <_SEQ> ahi all [19:18] so how would a guy rewrite the code for windows?

[19:24] rcsheets, plymouth [19:24] escott: thanks! I'll go find and read the fine manual on that :-) [19:24] hello [19:25] kurtwp_, thanks it's working but no need to go safe mode [19:25] rcsheets, don't try and remove it. the entire startup process has been made dependent on it for some god-forsaken reason [19:25] I have a dell studio 1558 with ubuntu 12.04 64 bit. The screen brightness control keys (fn + f5 and f4) do not work. I had this problem before on a previous installation and figured out how to fix it. Now I can't figure it out!! any ideas? [19:26] escott: thanks for the tip. my intention was to reconfigure it, not kill it. i'd like the startup messages to appear on vt1 and then have the getty appear right after the end of the messages. i'd also like the screen not to blank. [19:26] In my old 10.04 I could drag a file (say jpg) from chromium to the desktop and it would copy itself there. now, with 12.04, this option is disabled. why is that? how can I get this functionality back?

[19:27] scriptwarlock: ah don't know [19:28] kurtwp_, this is a recurring incident on aborted installation and that pesky pending deps will display === gordon is now known as Guest21415 [19:28] krababbel, I tried blacklisting it, but it was still using that driver.

I can still hear my voice, but the background noise starts to get people angry :P There is nothing wrong with the mic beacuse i tried it on a windows computer and it works perfecly find there. Anyone knows what could cause this problem? Using 12.04 and ALSA. :) Thanks.

About a week ago I was able to get upload speeds of 200-300 kB/sec (downloading from my server to my laptop at a remote location). Now I get < 1 kB/sec, I have not changed my setup at all. The problem my be Comcast related, but my download speeds are all still good, so unless they are intentionally chopping [19:41] !broadcom [19:41] Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [19:41] I'm new to Ubuntu (RHEL guy here) and I'm trying to enable kdump on some servers, i want to make sure I can generate cores with "MagicKeys" and send the core dump to an NFS mount point however I don't seem to be able to find the /etc/kdump.conf file.. perhaps I'm missing a package I have installed linux-crashdump === eHyperbyt is now known as Hyperbyte [19:46] can I use kernel.core_pattern in /etc/sysctl.conf to specify an NFS mount?

[19:50] yeah [19:50] permission denied [19:51] crv93: The best way is probably to use a partition manager like gparted to claim that portion of the drive for ubuntu, or just use it as a storage partition.

[19:52] crv93, gparted is on the livecd [19:52] crv93: you can get it from the ubuntu repositories and do it from withing Ubuntu, or you can use a live cd, it is usually included on the Ubuntu livecd I believe, just be careful not to lose your data by accident [19:53] crv93: You can also open a terminal and type: sudo apt-get update && apt-get install gparted [19:53] How hard is it to configure Ubuntu Server as a NAS?

This thing is a doozy.. running lubuntu 11.04 [19:56] crv93: Yeah, Wine, or you could try CrossOver, it's kind of what they aim for (CrossOver is paid, but they're major contributors to Wine). [19:56] hello [19:56] crv93: if you need MS Office and iTunes - sticking with windows might be your best bet [19:56] rolandb: Did you try the restricted drivers installer? [19:57] crv93: Actually CrossOver has a free trial in the software center right now I think, so you could check it out first and see how you like it. [19:57] crv93: we have other software such as rhythmbox (default in 12.04) that does much of what iTunes does. [19:57] yeehaw, u mean "Additional Drivers" in the system menu? [19:57] i wish make a usb hard disk, I had the ubuntu partitions and one NTFS [19:57] rolandb: That!

I already done it, but the device only works in one computer [20:01] Sheldon23: Yeah, agreed, it's ok though I use an Archos ^_^, just the rest of my family that brings me their apple troubles... [20:01] i installed evolution on gentoo and it doesn't do anything [20:01] in another one the grub loads but don't found the partition [20:02] espineteypim: did you make sure to install grub to the usb instead of the local HD? [20:02] I already use labels than uuid in the grub.cfg but nothing.

You can use dd [20:04] yeah, I think it's something more obscure, the ntfs is a resized partition and I leaved the ubuntu in a extended part [20:04] thnku odd perfect [20:04] I thinked in move the partition to right (ntfs) and leave to ubuntu be the first in the device [20:05] but the gparted moving is excesive slow, I don't have all these hours [20:05] espineteypim: also might want to try having ubuntu as a primary partition not an extended partition [20:05] yeah, I think that will be the solution === Youri is now known as Iruoy [20:06] some idea for resize more fast than gparted a ntfs partition ?

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. [20:23] Why is Ubuntu more laggy then XP on my laptop?? That doesn't seem right. Should I update drivers or something.

Once app windows are up I can click in one to select it, but alt-tabbing to switch results in another short (5-15 second) hang - mouse won't move, etc. It seems to happen with anything that involves animation. Lots of screen-redraws are wonky. I get weird fra [20:36] kaddi: You also must have "pidgin-skype" [20:36] Anyone familiar enough to help me sort it out?

[21:01] but how do i tell if the printer has port 9100 open when its a usb printer?

[21:03] RingZer0: if you're wondering about which port... why not just try 9100 first? [21:03] so the issue is its not reading it from usb? [21:03] RingZer0: ahh.... [21:03] Aethelred: its usb [21:03] i see it under "local printers" as soon as i click add [21:03] !who [21:03] As you can see, this is a large channel.

I once had a printer hooked up directly... let me check if I still have that [21:04] sweet. [21:05] escott on the other pc the same thing happened, but it seems there is option to check first priority on hard disk boot, there is the main hard disk and the usb as options there.

[22:06] MonkeyDust: well chromium said that ubuntu maintained the repro. now i'm not sure where to go. thanks for your help though [22:06] andersj, @audio -rtprio 99 means that a member of the audio group could switch to realtime priority 99. so yes probably removing the .disabled would be enough [22:07] escott, and log out and in again?= [22:07] Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

The first one is I used the addition driver feature and installed the prop driver for my nvida card. that cause me all sorts of headaches that I could not fix.

[22:38] yes felron [22:38] Kruk: no, it's not [22:38] thanks ikonia [22:38] i am installing an OS on a netbook with an 8GB SSD... would anyone have a recommendation as to how much space should be made for a swap partition, if any? [22:38] so a logical partition is a 'seperate computer...' === lupinedk is now known as Lupinedk [22:38] And How do i uninstall RPM [22:39] qazokm: no [22:39] JMichael|work: the hard disk size has nothing to do with swap [22:39] felron: maybe they're too technical here try begginners team [22:39] what is the command to launch the unity-2d-launcher individually? previously it was unity-2d-launcher, but in 12.04 with it installed, the command is not there [22:39] JMichael|work: if you want to use hibernate, make swap slightly larger then RAM [22:39] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_partition_%28virtual_computing_platform%29 === Youri is now known as Iruoy [22:40] ikonia: yes, it does. especially if you are dealing with a small drive. [22:40] .. [22:40] can someone instant message me [22:40] qazokm: the extended partition can be subdivided into multiple logical partitions. [22:40] JMichael|work: no, it doesn't as your requirement doesn't change on depending on the size of your drive, although it can be a limiting factor [22:40] so do i want to have an extended partition, with ubuntu under that? [22:40] DoFoT9__: what's the problem [22:40] .... [22:40] its with my web files [22:40] ubuntu begginers team. just in case [22:40] also, whether or not an SSD is being used has some bearing on how a person should configure swap, in some cases [22:40] Alright, I am utterly knew to this OS, and I like sound editing but ALL the programs available to me via Ubuntu and the Market that are specifically for Recording sound, don't seem to register the Hardware I use. [22:40] JMichael|work: no [22:41] ikonia: i completely disagree [22:41] I'm quite technical, I just don't know Ubuntu yet. [22:41] JMichael|work: then why are you asking for help if you have your own view of how it should be laid out [22:41] should it be at the 'beginning' or 'end' [22:41] swap can be hard on some SSDs [22:41] JMichael|work: no [22:41] qazokm: Yes, that is probably what you will do, (if you are creating a dual bot system). [22:41] i'm new too , though they've got some kind of sound syudio [22:42] its a pretty simple thing I think but, its a matter of I have 3 sites working and I actually was gonna copy the files like the working sites. Hoewver, I copied one but nothing works. So what should I do? Keep in mind I am using vhosts. Thanks! [22:42] studio [22:42] ikonia: i am asking for advice, but that does not require a person to take any advice given [22:42] has anybody tried to change the default language in ubuntu 12.04? [22:42] is in the ubuntu programs [22:42] haven't checked yet [22:42] Felron: working out the hardware and it's support in linux in terms of audio editing can be quite limiting [22:42] JMichael|work: yes, but your asking for advice giving no information on requriements [22:42] might be good [22:42] Does anyone know what settings I need to change in gnome-panel.css to change the background color of items in the gnome panel? [22:42] woxs, what language you got? [22:42] qazokm: For a Linux system, you want at least two partitions, a small swap partition and a large linux partition. [22:42] JMichael|work: I've got a 2 litre engine, what colour should I paint my car [22:42] vfw, should the bootloader be on dev/sda or dev/sda1?

[23:21] specifically, I'm looking for evidence on whether the usage base of FAT32 justifies ongoing support costs [23:22] O_o [23:22] personally, I'd like that specific 13 year old FS to die, but I need to do that data-driven [23:22] SDr, fat32 is one of the only patent unencumbered filesystems out there so it is actually one of the most used (in cameras and the like) [23:23] I feel that's very offtopic. But given the very high consumer base in consumer electronics, think cameras, phones, basically anything that takes storage media, use FAT, it's probably very well worth it. Plus maintenance is not too expensive, is it? [23:24] nicklas_, it is asking if you want the proprietary drivers for your graphics card. the benefits are better 3d support and faster graphics, the downsides are more limited support if it doesnt work [23:24] muelli, I understand question being offtopic, and really appreciate your help. our usage scenario is people downloading *large* stuff from our site; and the question is whether we should split at 4gb, or do single-file, that might be up to 16gb [23:25] hello [23:25] I am planning on a Win 7 and Ubuntu 12 dualboot but my father does not really care of his PC which is connected to the router that I also use to get online [23:25] *shrug* depends really what you're targetting, I'd say. Will it add trouble if it's multiple files? If not, why not split it... But really, that's offtopic to this channel. (but right now it's quite ;-) ) [23:25] what do you think about this security situation? [23:26] I am asking because he just made the connection to crash on both our systems [23:26] I have a dual-boot Win7 Home Prem 64-bit & Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit - I am getting the BSOD from the Windows boot; Ubuntu install works fine. Both are backed up. Can I use any of the Ubuntu disk-checking utilities to check the Windows partition? Thanks. [23:27] gmachine_24: well. yes. There is fsck.msdos and fsck.ntfs but I doubt it's what you need or want. [23:27] anyone able to help me with a raid issue? i just upgraded from 11.10 to 12.04 and after rebooting i've been unable to get my raid 5 array to come back online. examining the drives shows uuid of all zeroes and unknown raid level, correct checksum, state: active, and then at the bottom list it shows state: spare [23:27] muelli, I ran dos chkdsk etc. but I still get the BSOD. [23:27] hmm [23:27] Help me [23:28] postpac1, what kind of raid? mdadm? [23:28] yes, 3 1tb drives in raid 5 with mdadm [23:28] well gmachine_24. *shrug* No idea. But that's a windows issue and hence offtopic for this channel. Try the windows support. [23:28] I can't get my screen to stop blanking. [23:28] muelli, very true. [23:28] It's really annoying. [23:28] HelenTheMelon, you mean blinking? [23:28] or blanking [23:29] gmachine_24, well obviously blanking as I did say that. [23:29] what does version-current and version-current-update mean, or what is the difference between them? [23:29] postpac1, what does /proc/mdstat say [23:29] right, because no one here has ever made a typo [23:30] :D === totesmuhgoats is now known as trollsmuhgoats [23:31] nicklas_, maybe one gets updates and the other doesnt? [23:31] at the moment it doesn't say anything; after first reboot it had one drive listed with a (S) after it and said inactive; i've since replaced the mdadm.conf file with the dist version and rebooted a few times trying different things, so with the blank config at the moment it says unused devices: [23:31] I am planning on a Win 7 and Ubuntu 12 dualboot but my father does not really care of his PC which is connected to the router that I also use to get online [23:31] what do you think about this security situation? [23:31] I am asking because he just made the connection to crash on both our systems [23:31] gmachine_24: I think HelenTheMelon is talking about screen server function of going to black or blank screen. [23:32] Hey everyone, I have few problems happening. The first one is I used the addition driver feature and installed the prop driver for my nvida card. that cause me all sorts of headaches that I could not fix. The only way I was able to boot is by going into grub and loading the previous version of linux. The question is how do I disable that driver in the current version so I can boo taht? [23:32] Can I atleast how help? [23:32] well Lunar_Lander_. If anybody has an answer, they'll tell you. No need to repeat that often. You can also try to be more specific as your question is, well, very open... [23:32] postpac1, have you asked mdadm to scan the drives? [23:32] *have [23:32] HelenTheMelon: If you look in the screensaver options, you should find what you are looking for. [23:32] kkrauss: how did you install the driver in first place? [23:33] vfw, Where are they? [23:33] yeah. mdadm --assemble --scan --verbose tells me "/dev/sdX1 has wrong raid level." and then "Cannot assemble mbr metadata on /dev/sdX" for all three drives. which I can't understand because it was working fine up to the reboot [23:33] muelli, thanks, I thought to repeat it once in case someone missed it, and my question is: when he is so careless about using the internet (like he uses Internet Explorer and doesn't think about safety concerns), I think: can something spread across the router to my PC with the windows 7 and then compromise the whole system, including the ubuntu 12 part [23:33] muelli, I did it through the additional drivers option. thats what all the howto's said to do and it was supposedly tested by the unbuntu guys but it messed my system up. The only thing I can do is load an older version of linux from grub. [23:33] HelenTheMelon, i would first figure out what screensaver is running. It could be dpms but its more likely that a screensaver just isnt realizing you are using the system because of your non-standard WM [23:33] I had intended to use Win 7 for Steam only and Ubuntu 12 for all the surfing and working [23:34] so I don't want to put ubuntu on a crumbling base [23:34] Lunar_Lamp: a lot of steam stuff works in linux with wine [23:34] yea, but steam and its games too? [23:34] sure. that sounds possible Lunar_Lander_. Maybe not likely, but it's possible. [23:34] Lunar_Lander_: * [23:34] kkrauss: well, can't you simply uninstall using the same method/ [23:34] Lunar_Lander_: yeah many games work too [23:34] HelenTheMelon: I'm not familiar with Blackbox, I use xfce. [23:34] yeah, but Valve's Steam? [23:34] I am especially looking at Portal 2 [23:34] portal 2 works fine [23:35] cool! [23:35] muelli, no when I bring up additional drivers in my .23 version of linux it shows it as already not active. I have no idea how to fix this [23:35] !appdb | Lunar_Lander_ [23:35] Lunar_Lander_: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help [23:35] yeah [23:35] let me think [23:35] I had Wine once [23:35] muelli, I just know I cant boot the current version of linux and have to go back 1 [23:35] yes, in Teamviewer! [23:35] kkrauss: hm. I'd use the software centre to remove the nvidia driver. [23:35] that worked well [23:35] muelli, what really bothers me is why it didn't work when its supposedly tested. [23:36] escott, How do I find it? [23:36] postpac1, what does mdadm --examine /dev/sda# tell you [23:36] HelenTheMelon, ps aux | grep saver [23:36] kkrauss: well. don't bother. graphics drivers are huge cans of worms. So I'd always stick to the free driver. [23:36] muelli, lesson learned my friend lesson learned [23:36] that is awesome news muelli and Ben64 [23:36] escott, hmm [23:37] one more thing maybe [23:37] I executed it [23:37] anyone got time to help with a issue regarding multibooting win7 and 12.04? [23:37] when I needed TeamSpeak, I first tried the Software Center but then couldn't connect to my friends [23:37] and my friends told me that I need TS3 [23:37] so I went to the TS website and downloaded from there [23:37] that is OK as well? [23:37] Notn4: format with ubuntu, install win, install lin, done. [23:37] kkrauss: try the nvidia driver from their website. it seems to work pretty well for me, and is more up-to-date than the "proprietary drivers" option [23:37] as in the Software Center there is TS2 [23:38] lists the magic number, version 0.90.0 UUID is all zeroes, raid level is -unknown- state is active, checksums are correct, events is 1; two of the drives say there are 2 drives in the array and one says there is 1, but they are all listed as spare at the bottom. very weird i think [23:38] kkrauss: better not try proprietary drivers as they are non free. [23:38] muelli, i am also having problems with the proprietary driver and starting to wonder if 12.04 is too new to run on my laptop. The laptop im using for this has a gig of ram and ran vista so I thought 1.204 would be fine [23:38] muelli, no through additional drivers those ones are free [23:38] Dmole: can't, I'm running win7 already as my main OS and I really need it, but after installing ubuntu my win7 won't boot [23:38] spiffman, jsut about everyone I know says to never do it that way with video cards [23:38] kkrauss: nope. [23:38] Lunar_Lander_: it's OK, it's better if there is a 3rd party repo, but often there is not [23:38] postpac1, one possibility would be to zero the superblock and then recreate the array (i dont know if thats a good idea or not) http://kevin.deldycke.com/2007/03/how-to-recover-a-raid-array-after-having-zero-ized-superblocks/ [23:38] yeah [23:38] 3rd party repo like for Skype for example? [23:38] Lunar_Lander_, valve is in advanced stage of porting steam to linux.. they have even released a pre-release version [23:38] kkrauss: hm... well to each his own. mines working great [23:39] awesome! [23:39] muelli, please tell me where I am paying for it then? [23:39] Notn4: how did you install ubuntu? [23:39] muelli, I have installed many a proprietary drivers that way and never paid for it. [23:39] kkrauss: not free as in beer but free as in speach [23:39] from a live cd, on a separate hardrive [23:39] speech even [23:39] muelli, you mean open source, I udnerstand [23:39] Anyone have any clu on how to get my ATI drivers installed correctly. Have tried installing catalyst multiple times to no avail. [23:39] no kkrauss. I mean free [23:39] muelli, yes I know tahts why they are proprietary, they are not open source lol [23:39] Notn4: did you overwrite your win install or can you browse that drive from ubuntu? [23:39] !free | kkrauss [23:39] kkrauss: freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing [23:39] URGENT! I just deleted my wife's Picture folder by accident using "rm -r ./Pictures". I haven't done anything after. Please tell me something to try to retrieve. [23:40] muelli, we are arguing semantics I do believe [23:40] yeah, i considered that but i don't want to do anything irreversible yet because i just don't see how anything could have been changed on the drives by the reboot process [23:40] muelli, whic is not why I am hre [23:40] (I thought I was deleting a backup folder of the Pictures folder) [23:40] yeah I can browse it and I nknow its there, but grub cant find it and it seems at I lack MBR completely [23:40] Notn4: check your bios settings, may the first boot hdd is the linux [23:41] postpac1, have you tried pulling them up by booting the livecd? [23:41] shawnboy: tough luck. You can expect to be doomed. You might want to forcefully shut the machine down, boot smth else and take an image of the disk using dd. Then look into foresic tools. === EricAndr_ is now known as EricAndrews [23:41] Does anyone know how to get the background to be transparent for items in gnome panel? [23:41] postpac1, the old 11.10 (or whatever) livecd not the new 12.04? [23:41] escott, How do I read PS's output? [23:41] kkrauss:muelli means free to redistribute (they are not thus some hacking is needed to get them going and keep them going) [23:41] escott, that was going to be my next step, with an 11.10 livecd [23:41] a question on the repos Dmole, I use arduino and the software center has the 0.22 version of it, the official website has 0.23 and 1.0 as well, so I once tried out the 1.0 package and that worked OK and I think that is OK too? [23:42] was hoping someone might have a quik fix though ;) a bug or something i didn't know about [23:42] I got bios all correct, still problems, im using my laptop right now and just ran the third time through the win7 repair and now it seems to actually boot, will see if ubuntu works as well :D [23:42] HelenTheMelon, the important bit is the last column. do you see any screensaver command there? [23:42] muelli, crap! crap! boot to my own head! [23:42] and: does software in the center get updated sometimes if it is not supported by canonical itself? [23:42] its funny how everything starts to work the exact time you decide to ask for help :D [23:42] like the TS2 or the Arduino 0.22 thing [23:42] postpac1, sorry thats a scary situation to be in, and a bit over my head. goodluck [23:42] escott, I see grep --color=au to saver [23:42] Lunar_Lander_: it's all good, until it's not :) so just do what works [23:42] :) [23:42] postpac1, you might try #ubuntu-server in case the guys in that change have more experience with this issue [23:43] but there was a problem when I tried out my arduino uno with the ubuntu [23:43] ah good idea, thanks for your help, i'm idling in #linux-raid but it's not very active over there [23:43] the GUI started to freeze up [23:43] there was one potential idea that the USB input chip on the board had old firmware [23:43] ANy help with installing ATI drivers in here?? [23:44] Notn4: your mbr was fine if you were booting ubuntu, you likely just needed to ask grub to let you chose which OS you want before auto booting ubuntu [23:44] does anyone know if ubuntu will allow 1920x1080p output with the correct drivers? [23:44] did you get your ubuntu 12 via the upgrade downlink? [23:44] HelenTheMelon, if thats the only one then no process with "saver" in the name is running so its unlikely a screensaver is running. maybe it is dpms. you could try xset -dpms [23:44] sure azp. [23:44] azp: if your card supports it and the driver does, yes [23:45] well grub didn't find anything else than ubuntu, and yes i did update it, several times [23:45] I ordered the CDs from canonical as I wanted to reinstall anyway and cause I wanted to support the project :) [23:45] I have an nvidia 8600M GT and am only able to output 1154 x 800 [23:45] escott, I just need to execute that or what? [23:45] Notn4: i think grub did not pick up your win7 os that's why it boot straight into ubuntu. try run sudo update-grub [23:45] muelli, dude ubuntu just totally froze so if you said anything else I didnt get it. It froze while I was removing the nvidia driver [23:46] anyone else have more hopeful answers for recovering my wife's deleted photo folder? [23:46] Notn4: odd, you could manualy add it if needed [23:46] HelenTheMelon, that should disable dpms. xset +dpms would reenable it [23:46] now I got it this far: windows boots when the win drive is primary boot drive but no option to boot ubuntu, ubuntu boots when its drive is set a primary but no win7 option [23:46] !info photorec | shawnboy [23:46] shawnboy: Package photorec does not exist in precise [23:46] hey all. edited /etc/modules, assuming that would load a module on boot. didn't work - is there a different method for 12.04? [23:46] shawnboy: sorry dude. Unless it's a FAT filesystem, you're pretty much doomed as I've said. But on the bright side, there are few forensic tools specialised in recovering photo files. [23:47] I have the correct drivers and the nvidia x server settings doesn't allow more than 1350x1100 out [23:47] shawnboy, there is a photorec program which might be able to find some hidden photos (probably will also find all the images in your firefox cache so its going to be a high chaff to wheat ration) [23:47] btw one more thing [23:47] when i try 1350 out it looks worse than the 1154 settings [23:47] I did a update of grub now, it found the win7 :) thanks for any help! [23:47] are Canon Printers really that hard to implement on ubuntu? [23:47] shawnboy: so the story goes as I've said: Take an image of the disk using dd. then run forensic tools, i.e. smth on top of "carvfs". [23:48] Notn4: nice to hear you got the problem sorted out :) [23:48] anyone with nvidia video card? [23:48] muelli, if you do not recommend using any proprietary drivers, how will I get my wireless card working? [23:48] azp: why ? [23:48] hmmm. Ok. well, at least photorec is something I can look into. muelli, "smth" and "carvfs" unfortunately mean nothing to me. I can google, but otherwise flying blind. [23:48] azp: me [23:48] yeah, now everything is up and running great! both OSes boot from GRUB no problem [23:49] hi, I currently can only boot in recovery mode. When I resume from the recovery read-only prompt, it boots fine and all my drivers work. Standard boot hangs indefinitely and I have to hard-reset. [23:49] kkrauss: well. Wireless is quite good these days with linux. There are only a few crappy vendors left. Even broadcom has a mainline driver now IIRC. [23:49] because just curious if you have had any issues with the nvidia drivers? [23:49] shawnboy: so go ahead and do your research. This is pretty advanced stuff. You *need* to do your own research and know what you're doing. [23:49] azp: if I have issues has no relevence, as my experience maybe totally different than yours due to our different hardware [23:49] muelli, mine does not seem to work. If I do not have the proprietary driver installed it says missing firmware then when I install it there is no option for wirelss AND when I hit the wireless button on my lpatop it doesnt turn on [23:50] ye i have [23:50] and one more: If 12.04 is the LTS version, will 12.10 then also be LTS? [23:50] I originally couldn't get the nvidia settings to work do to You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver on Linux Ubuntu [23:50] shawnboy: I think there is a package for backtrack that includes all kinds of related goodies [23:50] and i.e. 13.04 isn't LTS then? [23:50] Lunar_Lamp, the next LTS is 14.04 [23:50] yea [23:50] In Ubuntu, they recently split up a lot of their libs into two different dirs: /usr/lib and /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu [23:51] god damn it, every time I try to remove this nvidia drive, the software center closes [23:51] so 12.10 won't be LTS? [23:51] It won't. [23:51] No [23:51] but why should one get 12.10 in october then [23:51] muelli, understood. Dmole: ok, another one I'll look into. [23:51] after searching online I found this, http://blog.musicvm.com/solved-you-do-not-appear-be-using-nvidia-x-driver-linux-ubuntu [23:51] or the 13.04 and 13.10 [23:51] Why, indeed. [23:51] When I run qmake now, it adds -L/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu and can't find the files in /usr/lib [23:51] yea [23:51] It'll have new features, new hardware support. [23:51] suddenly i saw green and pink colours when i playing and then hangs up with 295.40 drivers version [23:51] hi all. how do i use gnome instead of unity? on precise. is this a good resource: http://askubuntu.com/questions/6302/how-can-you-remove-unity [23:51] kkrauss: poor you then. I'd complain to the vendor. So by buying proper hardware you avoid these issues altogether. But maybe it's just a configuration issue of some sort. But yeah, if you bought crappy hardware then you need to run BLOBs. But of course this is nothing to embrace so one must use as little as needed. [23:51] Thanks for the tips everyone. [23:51] what does a hard-reset look like in dmesg? [23:52] Should I hardcode /usr/lib into my qmake libs path or is there a more elegant way to handling this? [23:52] It did get the nvidia settings to work and was able to adjust my setting like my resolution [23:52] ...er hard-shutdown [23:52] but I cannot get the propper supported output [23:52] azp: i downgrade to 295.33 and is more stable === Youri is now known as Iruoy [23:53] I have 2 displays that support 1600x900 and 1920x1080 [23:53] and to repeat [23:53] muelli: this is kkrauss, Its not the hardware I already checked and its fine. Why do you automatically assume such things. Also ubuntu had just frozen on me AGAIN trying to remove that stupid nvidia driver [23:53] Canon Printer+Ubuntu=really impossible? [23:53] the nvidia driver does not allow output anywhere near these resolutions [23:53] curiousx: is the downgrade process simple? [23:54] I cant even get the nvidia driver to work, it has totally broken my system. [23:54] azp: to view the nvidia driver options and alternatives, look here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia maybe an alternative will work better, or as curiousx suggested, a downgrade [23:54] kevin__: the solution is to use terminal making any GUI pointless :) [23:54] Dmole: ;) [23:54] Lunar_Lamp, Have you any idea how many printers that Canon makes? WADR, of course. [23:54] well i'm just gonna go with that link. thanks though. [23:55] mmm... ye following a tutorial is pretty easy but the tutorial that i found is in spanish, if you want yo can translate it with google [23:55] is there like a benchmark I can use out there to determine which version of ubuntu will run best on my system. I think my system isn't digging 12.04 [23:55] kevin__: If It works like it used to you can install 3 or 4 GUIs and select the one you want at login [23:55] shawnboy: maybe take a look at http://www.caine-live.net/ a forensic distro http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=caine [23:56] kevin__: also Cinnamon might be to your liking [23:57] OK, once more xD: Canon Pixma iP3600+Ubuntu=impossible? [23:57] Any help installing ATI video drivers in here?? I have attempted following several tutorials no luck. [23:57] Lunar_Lander_: sorry. That's an odd question. If you have the hardware and don't know the answer, just try it yourself. [23:58] kkrauss: plenty, here is one: http://www.primatelabs.ca/geekbench/download/ [23:58] hey ubuntu my browsers are acting very funny today and aren't loading up any pages as they should be (will just stay loading except for google) [23:58] kkrauss: another http://www.phoronix-test-suite.com/?k=downloads === looksirdroids is now known as kish [23:59] muelli, ah OK; I mean I read what I could find by searching "Canon Pixma Ubuntu" on google and it seemed to be a really difficult process that doesn't work every time [23:59] o_o here goes nuthin. [23:59] Any help installing ATI video drivers in here?? I have attempted following several tutorials no luck. [23:59] !any | Mc2992 [23:59] !any
