| EDawg878 | Why does $ sudo chmod not work? | 00:01 |
| Jpgman | Hey guys I just upgraded to 12.04, but I'm getting all sorts of bugs, for instance Google talk on empathy isn't working and youtube for the video lens isn't showing up, is there anyway to reinstall the update, or reinstall ubuntu without losing everything. Like a fix installation tool? | 00:01 |
| nulldev | EDawg878 because you dont typr $ | 00:01 |
| nulldev | type* | 00:02 |
| EDawg878 | Is that a joke^ | 00:02 |
| nulldev | EDawg878 just sudo chmod ... | 00:02 |
| EDawg878 | I know.... | 00:02 |
| rbrooks | no $ necss | 00:02 |
| EDawg878 | Im saying that sudo chmod doesnt do anything | 00:02 |
| nulldev | EDawg878 you also have to tell it what your chmodding i.e sudo chmod 755 file | 00:02 |
| EDawg878 | I did | 00:03 |
| EDawg878 | chmod -R 777 ./* | 00:03 |
| escott | EDawg878, ugggh why would you do that? | 00:03 |
| EDawg878 | I need to fix the permissons in my ramdisk | 00:03 |
| escott | EDawg878, your tmpfs? | 00:03 |
| EDawg878 | ramfs | 00:03 |
| EDawg878 | I dont like it to swap out | 00:03 |
| mykrobinson | Anyone else having issues when burning audio cd's from Rhythmbox to Brasero? The discs burn, but 6 out of 6 discs I burned had a few seconds of each song chopped off. | 00:04 |
| nulldev | EDawg878 remount it in rw | 00:04 |
| EDawg878 | Okay | 00:04 |
| jagginess | EDawg878, use tmpfs, not ramfs | 00:04 |
| isbric | i take it there is no way to fluch/clear a serialport buffer setup with stty? | 00:04 |
| xrdawson_ | I am having trouble with a PPA for emacs, and it has hosed the ability to apt-get anything. | 00:04 |
| EDawg878 | No ramfs suits my purposes better im running a server that should not be using the swap | 00:04 |
| crw | `Korvin, did the trick, took a few attempts, but i think i'm square now. thanks! | 00:04 |
| jagginess | EDawg878, tmpfs is a ramdisk, ramfs is used for other purposes, you'll cause corruption if you use ramfs (see wikipedia) | 00:05 |
| xrdawson_ | It says "emacs-snapshot-bin-common : Depends: emacs-snapshot-common (= 2:20120522-1~ppa1~precise1) but it is not going to be installed" | 00:05 |
| nulldev | EDawg878 can you could just disable the swap file | 00:05 |
| EDawg878 | I use the desktop normally also | 00:05 |
| EDawg878 | I dont want to entirely disable the swap | 00:05 |
| xrdawson_ | When I try to do "apt-get -f install" it says all this: https://gist.github.com/2860569 | 00:06 |
| EDawg878 | I just dont want the ramdisk swapping out | 00:06 |
| genii-around | xrdawson_: What says result of apt-get policy emacs-snapshot-common | 00:06 |
| xrdawson_ | genii-around: Hmm, weird: "E: Invalid operation policy" | 00:06 |
| L3top | xrdawson_: it is the PPA causing the problem | 00:07 |
| xrdawson_ | L3top: Can I remove it? I'm fine getting rid of it, but cannot see how to do this safely. | 00:07 |
| genii-around | xrdawson_: apt-cache policy emacs-snapshot-common ....sorry, wrong command | 00:07 |
| xrdawson_ | Can I just remove the PPA from /etc/apt/sources.d or something? | 00:07 |
| xangua | !ppapurge | xrdawson_ | 00:07 |
| xangua | !ppa-purge | xrdawson_ | 00:07 |
| ubottu | xrdawson_: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 00:07 |
| dsnyders | !mint | 00:08 |
| ubottu | Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 00:08 |
| xrdawson_ | genii-around: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1020495/ | 00:08 |
| L3top | xrdawson_: I would sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d and confirm that it did not exist in cat /etc/apt/sources.list (I don't know how you added it). and then sudo apt-get update | 00:08 |
| L3top | wait | 00:08 |
| L3top | xrdawson_: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | 00:09 |
| L3top | sorry | 00:09 |
| nulldev | lol | 00:09 |
| genii-around | xrdawson_: So the snapshot-bin-common wants specific xxx522 but available is xxx524 | 00:09 |
| xangua | L3top: deleting the repository line will not remove the packages it installed | 00:09 |
| xrdawson_ | L3top: great, that fixed things. | 00:10 |
| L3top | xangua: it tends to have to do with the availablity... not installed packages | 00:10 |
| xrdawson_ | Thanks L3top and genii-around. | 00:11 |
| nulldev | L3top have you not tried installing emacs-snapshot-bin-common first? | 00:11 |
| Blue1 | !mip | 00:11 |
| L3top | nulldev: I am sorry my advice fixed the problem. I do not use emacs. I use vi. | 00:12 |
| L3top | to answer your question | 00:12 |
| EDawg878 | Does ramfs really cause corruption because I just read the Debian wiki and it said "A ramfs derivative called tmpfs was created to add size limits, and the ability to write the data to swap space." | 00:14 |
| Psyclonic | is it possible to run large windows based games through wine without problems? | 00:14 |
| L3top | EDawg878: I expect it has to do with leakage... but that is a guess. | 00:14 |
| EDawg878 | So isn't tmpfs just a "derivative" of ramfs? | 00:14 |
| xangua | !appdb | Psyclonic | 00:15 |
| ubottu | Psyclonic: 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 | 00:15 |
| nulldev | ramfs is a temporary virtual file system stored in ram so shouldnt cause any long term corruption unless it writes to real file system, it could corrupt on the fly though I guess | 00:15 |
| quan | hello quick question.. how do i use my hdmi cable with linux i just switched over | 00:15 |
| quan | anyone..? -_- | 00:17 |
| L3top | Psyclonic: define problems. It would depend on the resources available. It would depend on the game. It is almost impossible to answer your question... check the factoid aimed at you, and look at the wine application compatability DB for a better answer to your specific desire. | 00:17 |
| mydogsnameisrudy | quan: you on laptop | 00:17 |
| quan | yes | 00:17 |
| L3top | quan: I would need more information. Begin with lspci -nn | grep VGA | 00:17 |
| nulldev | quan plug it in | 00:17 |
| mydogsnameisrudy | look at functionkeys could change the settings | 00:17 |
| quan | its plugged in | 00:17 |
| Psyclonic | L3top : I am thinking about running a game I buy at the store for pc via wine and the game's installation disc | 00:18 |
| L3top | again Psyclonic, look at the link in the factoid to see its compatibility | 00:18 |
| koud | hello I need some help with virt-manager, seems I have found a bug with it | 00:18 |
| L3top | !bug | koud | 00:19 |
| Psyclonic | thanks | 00:19 |
| ubottu | koud: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 00:19 |
| koud | when I try and create a new virtual machine it says "Error: list.remove(x): x not in list" | 00:19 |
| koud | seems I have managed to get it in some kind of deadlock with that error | 00:20 |
| koud | how can I clear virt-manager settings?? | 00:20 |
| koud | i tried deleting .virt-manager but seems that is not where it stores preferences | 00:20 |
| koud | I tried apt-get purge virt-manager but also no luck :( | 00:21 |
| zykotick9 | koud: you might want to try "libvirt/virt-manager support is #virt on irc.oftc.net" if you don't get an answer here | 00:22 |
| koud | zykotick9: that channel is key protected | 00:22 |
| koud | oh | 00:22 |

| tbrown2012fb | How many people started there ubuntu training with the minimal iso. I think it more better because you know what you are getting and you dont have to update all the time it pritty nice I like it:) | 00:24 |
| zykotick9 | tbrown2012fb: i must say, i think ubuntu's mini iso is pretty cool... lots of choice starting with it ;) | 00:25 |
| Kornkage | tbrown2012fb i just installed ubuntu from windows 7 | 00:27 |
| koud | nulldev: well I dont know what you mean by sesson. but earlier i deleted some stuff yes. I deleted connections and virtual machines to my server. then I reinstalled my server | 00:27 |

| nulldev | koud I was just thinking something had crashed in the instance of virt-manager (not something Ive used) and that it was trying to delete it from a srting list stored in ram thats now pointing to non existant files/dirs | 00:29 |
| xangua | Rookie407: enable sift switcher plugin in Compiz Settings Manager (on your own risk, some plugins don't get along with Unity) | 00:29 |

| riley_ | im on ubuntu 12.04 btw | 00:33 |

| Blackshirt | What is iscsi ? | 00:41 |
| === moruk is now known as Guest46470 | ||
| nulldev | blackshirt iscsi is virtualised scsi used in san's | 00:42 |
| Blackshirt | Nulldev, it is not hardware related terms? | 00:43 |
| nulldev | blackshirt virtualised scsi isnt the proper term just my interpretation | 00:43 |
| nulldev | blackshirt its the protocol/or daemon that handles connection over sans thats all I know about it | 00:44 |
| Blackshirt | Nulldev, there are iscsi implementation on linux, is this similar to scsi driver for scsi devices? | 00:46 |
| nulldev | blackshirt tbh I dont know but I would say so | 00:46 |
| Blackshirt | Nulldev, is it just works over sans? | 00:47 |
| EDawg878 | How can i stop lightdm from starting by default? | 00:47 |
| escott | EDawg878, add "text" to the boot options | 00:48 |
| EDawg878 | Ill try that | 00:48 |
| nulldev | blackshirt yeah its basically an IP version of scsi | 00:48 |
| azureviolin | hi everybody | 00:49 |
| azureviolin | I installed ubuntu on my laptop, but the GT 550M graphic card isn't supported neither by Ubuntu nor by Nvidia. But the graphic card is running and heating up while my laptop turn on. How can I turn it off? | 00:49 |
| escott | azureviolin, check your bios | 00:49 |
| koud | azureviolin: and check out bumblebee | 00:49 |
| azureviolin | hi escott, I got windows on my computer too, if I turn graphic card off in Bios, I won't be able to use it under Windows unless I turn it up again. | 00:49 |
| Blackshirt | Nulldev, what is mean of first letter 'i' on iscsi? | 00:50 |
| azureviolin | bumblebee? i'm checking now | 00:50 |
| koud | azureviolin: your card should be supported by nvidia | 00:50 |
| koud | azureviolin: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-ia32-270.41.06-driver | 00:50 |
| nulldev | blackshirt not sure but think internet and exluding p protocol | 00:51 |
| Blackshirt | Nulldev, that for internet scsi? | 00:51 |
| zykotick9 | !text | EDawg878 | 00:51 |
| ubottu | EDawg878: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 00:51 |
| azureviolin | koud: my Ubuntu is x64 | 00:51 |
| koud | azureviolin: bumblebee can get you optimus like service on linux, I am using that with my asus laptop with 415m. get around 6-8h battery life | 00:51 |
| zykotick9 | EDawg878: you can also disable the lightdm service from starting, but text is probably easier | 00:52 |
| nulldev | blackshirt sounds plausible but my use of iscsi is basic | 00:52 |
| EDawg878 | Okay ill try modifying the boot sequence first | 00:52 |
| azureviolin | koud: cool | 00:52 |
| azureviolin | I think I'll check that | 00:52 |
| koud | azureviolin: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-amd64-295.53-driver.html | 00:52 |
| Blackshirt | Thanks nulldev for your explanation, but you are greats people.. | 00:52 |
| koud | azureviolin: check supported products | 00:53 |
| koud | it mentions 550m | 00:53 |
| azureviolin | My laptop is ASUS N43S | 00:53 |
| nulldev | blackshirt ty :) | 00:53 |
| azureviolin | yeah, I saw it here now. Thanks koud | 00:53 |
| azureviolin | I'll try it now | 00:53 |
| koud | I got asus u31 :) | 00:53 |
| koud | azureviolin: my suggestion would be following bumblebee guide though | 00:53 |
| koud | I think they have nvidia graphics there too | 00:54 |
| SegF4ult | hey fellas, short question | 00:54 |
| SegF4ult | How does Ubuntu manage keys for the ssh-agent? | 00:54 |
| SegF4ult | every time I use an SSH key on my ubuntu install it seems to store it in some sort of way | 00:55 |
| azureviolin | koud: Sure, I'll check out bumblebee again. I did it before, and I think with a wrong driver, it didn't work. | 00:55 |
| koud | SegF4ult: what do you mean? .ssh folder in users home directory? | 00:55 |
| OY1R | q: why does atd always start up and hogs the cpu ? | 00:55 |
| SegF4ult | koud: what I mean is that when I try to authenticate for github, (for example) it adds the key to the ssh-agent automatically (while it's a non-standard keyname) | 00:55 |
| Kornkage | i'm waiting for a cheapass laptop for like 500-600 with the latest gpu above nvidia 540m | 00:55 |
| nulldev | segfault I may be wrong as not used ubuntu much since 8.04 but iirc the gmome keyring | 00:55 |
| azureviolin | thanks koud, I'm going to do it now. | 00:56 |
| SegF4ult | koud: I'm trying to replicate this behaviour on another linux distro | 00:56 |
| koud | azureviolin: hope it works well for you =) | 00:56 |
| SegF4ult | nulldev: gnome keyring? | 00:56 |
| usuarioubuntu190 | Hi anyone here know spanish? i came to the wrong server? | 00:57 |
| nulldev | segfault this is going back over 1 LTS what desktop enviroment you using? | 00:57 |
| pi3ch | any one knows how to make URLs clickable in xterm? | 00:57 |
| zykotick9 | !es | usuarioubuntu190 | 00:57 |

| SegF4ult | nulldev: I'm using the Unity shell now | 00:57 |
| harushimo | when you are setting up ubuntu server, is it better to partition like the desktop version with a boot, swap, root, and home directory? | 00:57 |
| nulldev | segfault I have no idea then sorry | 00:57 |
| escott | harushimo, we cant answer better | 00:57 |
| koud | SegF4ult: sorry I dont think I know. When I authenticate to github I do same as for other distros, just create private key in .ssh and copy public key to github | 00:58 |
| zykotick9 | pi3ch: i rather doubt it's possible, maybe? | 00:58 |
| SegF4ult | nulldev: I just wonder since it works so well in Ubuntu, but I can't figure out how to do it on another distribution | 00:58 |
| usuarioubuntu190 | thank you! | 00:58 |
| escott | harushimo, having /root as its own partition would be a bad idea | 00:58 |
| SegF4ult | koud: that's the procedure, yes, but a key (should) have a passphrase | 00:58 |
| harushimo | on a server really? why? | 00:58 |
| SegF4ult | koud: and I want it to only ask the passphrase once | 00:58 |
| harushimo | the root partition can't be accessed anyways | 00:59 |
| pi3ch | zykotick9: yeah apparently it doesnt support. | 00:59 |
| harushimo | unless you activate root? | 00:59 |
| harushimo | right | 00:59 |
| nulldev | harushimo depends on what your doing but always good to use seperate partitions for recovery purposes /rootfs /boot /var /home are the main ones to consider | 00:59 |
| escott | harushimo, if something goes wrong you would like to be able to login to recovery mode without difficulties. and /root should be very very small | 00:59 |
| Rob_25 | Need assistance. I've done a full install of Ubuntu 12.04 but there is no login sound. Anyone know a solution? | 00:59 |
| koud | SegF4ult: ah, I think for me it asks every time. although I dont think I have used keyphrase on ubuntu only other distros | 00:59 |
| harushimo | exactly what I was thinking | 00:59 |
| zykotick9 | pi3ch: clicking in xterm, in general is rather unlikely. | 00:59 |
| lorddelta | Question: Does Ubuntu encrypt the contents of memory on sleep/suspend/hibernate? | 01:00 |
| harushimo | I've following like a 50/50 rule | 01:00 |
| pi3ch | zykotick9: any suggestion for term emu? | 01:00 |
| harushimo | meaning if I have a partition 8, I'll do root with 4 and home with 4 | 01:00 |
| zykotick9 | pi3ch: not really. i use urxvt myself. | 01:00 |
| harushimo | is that bad partitioning scheme? | 01:01 |
| escott | harushimo, what? | 01:01 |
| napalm54 | So I have started my desktop (Ubuntu 12.04) and it starts into a terminal prompt. | 01:01 |
| pi3ch | zykotick9: will give it a try. | 01:01 |
| lorddelta | napalm54: Sweet1 | 01:01 |
| harushimo | whenever I do a partitioning scheme, I set as memory for boot and swap | 01:01 |
| napalm54 | I tried sudo restartx and it did some stuff, then froze. | 01:01 |
| escott | harushimo, /root should not be a partition. thats a bad idea, and a pointless waste of space | 01:01 |
| lorddelta | napalm54: Not so sweet. =/ | 01:01 |
| harushimo | really | 01:01 |
| napalm54 | I tried sudo restart lightdm which didnt work either | 01:01 |
| napalm54 | Any ideas? | 01:02 |
| escott | harushimo, whats next a partition for /etc/X11? | 01:02 |
| lorddelta | napalm54: startx? | 01:02 |
| zykotick9 | escott: harushimo infact, /root should be a part of / | 01:02 |
| napalm54 | lorddelta: Yea startz | 01:02 |
| napalm54 | startx* | 01:02 |
| lorddelta | Hmm. | 01:02 |
| harushimo | it is own partition | 01:02 |
| harushimo | I mean root is / | 01:02 |
| harushimo | then I do /home | 01:02 |
| harushimo | they are separate partitions | 01:02 |
| Boohbah | escott: /root is roots home directory, / is the root filesystem | 01:03 |
| lorddelta | napalm54: well...I broke my X when I was playing around with the kernel...then I upgraded to 12.04, whatever it installed fixed the issues. | 01:03 |
| nulldev | harushimo no need rootfs dont need as much as /home | 01:03 |
| Rob_25 | Need assistance. I've done a full install of Ubuntu 12.04 but there is no login sound. Anyone know a solution? | 01:03 |
| escott | harushimo, what would happen if something during the boot broke and / was mounted but not /root and you tried to set init=/bin/bash. /root needs to be a folder in / | 01:03 |
| harushimo | I don't do /root | 01:03 |
| lorddelta | napalm54: so you could always try sudo apt-get --reinstall install ubuntu-desktop | 01:03 |
| harushimo | this is my current partitioning scheme, /boot, swap, /, /home | 01:04 |
| escott | Boohbah, i know that. | 01:04 |
| escott | harushimo, and thats fairly standard. whether or not you need that is up to you and your needs | 01:04 |
| lorddelta | napalm54: if that doesn't work remove/purge it first. | 01:04 |
| harushimo | I've been using that standards for the last 5 installs of ubuntu | 01:04 |
| harushimo | good | 01:04 |
| lorddelta | It works if it fetches ~40-50 packages and installs them. | 01:05 |
| harushimo | you scared me. I thought I was doing something wrong | 01:05 |
| nulldev | harushimo rootfs refers to anything under / that isnt on another partition | 01:05 |
| harushimo | i didn't know that | 01:05 |
| lorddelta | napalm54: the other thing to check is that you have all your video drivers installed | 01:05 |
| harushimo | I learn something new everyday about ubuntu | 01:05 |
| harushimo | hehe | 01:05 |
| napalm54 | lorddelta: Yea I have never had any issues with 12.04 until now. I booted into ubuntu and all of a sudden just a terminal | 01:06 |
| escott | harushimo, ok. i read " boot, swap, root, and home" as meaning you wanted to have a "/root" partition in addition to "/" | 01:06 |
| Rob_25 | Need assistance. I've done a full install of Ubuntu 12.04 but there is no login sound. Anyone know a solution? | 01:06 |
| nulldev | napalm54 you update your kernel? | 01:06 |
| pokeswap | is there an online list of all of the default programs that come with the server package? | 01:06 |
| lorddelta | napalm54: Ctrl+Alt+F7? | 01:06 |
| napalm54 | nulldev: I am not sure. I been away for a few days. I always try to keep it upto date though. So most likely if it was in a recent update. | 01:07 |
| ASMODEUS_ | Ubuntu is a based from which Debian branch? | 01:07 |
| escott | ASMODEUS_, i think it varies from release to release | 01:08 |
| delac | how to use the gnome-shell lg pick tool to menus? menus allways close when you select the tool... | 01:08 |
| Jordan_U | ASMODEUS_: Testing for LTS releases, unstable for non-LTS. | 01:08 |
| pokeswap | how to i get to gnome? | 01:08 |
| Jordan_U | ASMODEUS_: Why do you ask? | 01:08 |
| napalm54 | lorddelta: Just tried that, and it started a bunch of stuff, but this time is has paused with a blinking underscore _ | 01:08 |
| nulldev | napalm54 Im not familiar with the latest kernel for 12.04 but what does uname -r show | 01:08 |
| ASMODEUS_ | Jordan_U, because I've been having problems with Debian unstable and testing. An update with libcairo2 causing alot of graphical glitchs for me. | 01:09 |
| lorddelta | 3.2.0-24-generic | 01:09 |
| zykotick9 | escott: harushimo's insistance on a separate /root is a bad idea, cause you always want root to be able to log in. i even imagine ubuntu's recovery grub option might have issues if /root is unmountable... (i don't see harushimo's side) | 01:09 |
| lorddelta | should be the lastest kernel | 01:09 |
| ASMODEUS_ | Has ubuntu experienced the problem? | 01:09 |
| harushimo | its not bad idea. its common practice | 01:10 |
| ThePendulum | Is it possible not to show the desktop after boot? I am running XBMC within Ubuntu and I'd like to see just XBMC when starting the system | 01:10 |
| lorddelta | So, I'll repeat MY question: anyone here know if ubuntu encrypts memory on hibernate/sleep/suspend? | 01:10 |
| harushimo | you can log into your root by activating the root account on the system | 01:10 |
| harushimo | I do that all the time | 01:10 |
| Jordan_U | ASMODEUS_: Just knowing what Ubuntu branched from during the merge process doesn't tell you much. | 01:10 |
| pokeswap | how to i get to gnome? | 01:10 |
| nulldev | lorddelta is that the latest ubuntu have released though, do they not release different kernels for non LTS | 01:10 |
| escott | zykotick9, harushimo didn't actually say that. he said he wanted a "root" and "home" partition. I misread it as "/root" and "/home" but he meant "/" and "/home". and I told him exactly what you just told me | 01:10 |
| zykotick9 | !notunity | pokeswap | 01:10 |
| ubottu | pokeswap: 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 | 01:10 |
| ASMODEUS_ | Jordan_U, I know but I'm wondering if Ubuntu had a similar problem with libcairo2. | 01:11 |
| napalm54 | nulldev: I have 3.2.0-24-generic | 01:11 |
| zykotick9 | escott: ahhh | 01:11 |
| Rob_25 | Need assistance. I've done a full install of Ubuntu 12.04 but there is no login sound. Anyone know a solution? | 01:11 |
| lorddelta | nulldev: should be...I try to run LTS and non-beta, I've had bad experiences running anything other than stable. | 01:11 |
| escott | zykotick9, this is what happens after i drink two beers and someone types "boot, swap, root and home" | 01:11 |
| hangdeadman | I am using torrent scope on my dash in ubuntu 12.04, when I click a file it is opened with transmission, can I chang that to open files with deluge? | 01:11 |
| Jordan_U | ASMODEUS_: I would recommend looking for bug reports, or trying an Ubuntu 12.04 LiveCD/USB to see if you have the same problem. | 01:11 |
| nulldev | napalm Thats a new kernel but not sure how new in ubuntu but try reinstalling your gfx drivers | 01:11 |
| pokeswap | how to i get to the unity shell? | 01:11 |
| harushimo | hey I separted everything out. I didn't say /root. you took into assumption | 01:12 |
| zykotick9 | pokeswap: log out, and select it at login. | 01:12 |
| harushimo | that isn't my fault | 01:12 |
| ASMODEUS_ | Jordan_U, I will once I find some spare DVDs. Thanks for replying. | 01:12 |
| Jordan_U | ASMODEUS_: You're welcome. | 01:12 |
| pokeswap | how do i logout and select something at login? | 01:12 |
| pokeswap | i just got ubuntu an hour ago. | 01:12 |
| escott | harushimo, don't say "boot, swap, root and home" say "/boot, swap, / and /home" at least not on a saturday night. some of us like to drink and relax | 01:12 |
| harushimo | sorry | 01:13 |
| harushimo | I won't do that again | 01:13 |
| harushimo | please forgive me | 01:13 |
| JamesJRH | Any LG customers? You might want to follow/vote/tweet/like/etc. this: http://support.lgforum.com/lg/topics/ubuntu_for_android | 01:13 |
| escott | harushimo, its ok. just confusing :) | 01:13 |
| lorddelta | JamesJRH: I'm not an LG customer, but I'll become one perhaps if they do this! | 01:13 |
| nulldev | harushime /root does not relate to what I said /rootfs | 01:13 |
| JamesJRH | :-D | 01:13 |
| hangdeadman | change ubuntu 12.04 default torrent scope client to deluge from transmission? | 01:13 |
| Jordan_U | JamesJRH: Please don't spam links, for anything, in #ubuntu. This channel is for Ubuntu support questions only. | 01:13 |
| harushimo | that is how you refer to it in the terminal. if you are super user, cd /, it goes straight to root | 01:13 |
| JamesJRH | Jordan_U: Ok sorry. | 01:14 |
| pokeswap | how do i get to the terminal? | 01:14 |
| reisio | CTRL+ALT+t | 01:14 |
| reisio | or hit the ubuntu logo and type terminal | 01:14 |
| nulldev | harushime /rootfs refers to / but depending on your file structure can differ | 01:14 |
| hangdeadman | pokeswap: ctrl+aly+t | 01:14 |
| escott | harushimo, you are correct "/" is the root of the filesystem, but its ambiguous in context because there is a "/root" | 01:14 |
| lorddelta | JamesJRH: You would be better off in the forums anyways. | 01:14 |
| harushimo | really | 01:14 |
| lorddelta | No one reads anything in here. | 01:15 |
| harushimo | I'm going to check that right now | 01:15 |
| lorddelta | Other than support questions. | 01:15 |
| Boohbah | lorddelta: what was the question? | 01:15 |
| harushimo | i forgot about that | 01:15 |
| harushimo | sorry for being confusing | 01:15 |
| nulldev | harushime /rootfs isnt the same as /root but /root is just root users home dir | 01:15 |
| escott | harushimo, /root is the home directory for "root" the user (UID 0) and MUST be part of "/" otherwise bad things can happen | 01:15 |
| hangdeadman | how do I make torrent scope open files with deluge in ubuntu 12.04? | 01:15 |
| harushimo | you are right | 01:15 |
| Jordan_U | nulldev: "/rootfs" Doesn't make much sense. By starting the term with a '/' you're implying that it's an actual path. I've never seen '/rootfs' as an actual path. | 01:15 |
| harushimo | I just saw it in my terminal | 01:16 |
| Rob_25 | Need assistance. I've done a full install of Ubuntu 12.04 but there is no login sound. Anyone know a solution? | 01:16 |
| JamesJRH | Jordan_U: Which #ubuntu* channel would 'Ubuntu for Android' be on topic? | 01:16 |
| Boohbah | $ df -h | head -n +2 | tail -1 | 01:16 |
| Boohbah | rootfs 41G 14G 25G 37% / | 01:16 |
| nulldev | Jordan_U ok I was tryig to refer it to a non experienced Linux user | 01:16 |
| Norton | hi all | 01:16 |
| Boohbah | Jordan_U: it does appear in df output | 01:17 |
| nulldev | Jordan_U they dont interpret / the same | 01:17 |
| EDawg878 | What do i add to the grub to make it boot to text mode so far i changed GRUB_TERMINAL=console #GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="" | 01:17 |
| escott | EDawg878, just put "text" in the line that mentions "splash" | 01:17 |
| zykotick9 | Boohbah: is this a vps? | 01:18 |
| escott | EDawg878, which i think is CMDLIN_LINUX_DEFAULT | 01:18 |
| EDawg878 | I dont have a line that mentions text so i guess i do GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=text ? | 01:18 |
| Jordan_U | EDawg878: By "text mode" do you mean "booting to a terminal prompt" or "using VGA-text output rather than a graphical mode"? | 01:18 |
| nulldev | edawg878 just remove the silent and splash | 01:18 |
| pokeswap | bye, and thanks | 01:18 |
| hangdeadman | I just upgraded from ubuntu 10.10 to 12.04 and my boot/ login times went from 5 seconds a piece to 30+seconds a piece, how do I fix this? | 01:18 |
| EDawg878 | There is no silent and splash in my config file | 01:18 |
| DarkTux | can modify for enable pci options :D | 01:19 |
| Jordan_U | hangdeadman: Start by installing bootchart and checking what is taking the most time. | 01:19 |
| escott | EDawg878, if you took silent splash out then put "text" in its place | 01:19 |
| Boohbah | zykotick9: nope, it's arch linux, coreutils 8.17 | 01:19 |
| EDawg878 | Jordan_U, to a terminal prompt with no gui | 01:19 |
| nulldev | hangdeadman do a fresh install | 01:19 |
| JamesJRH | lorddelta: You're probably right! It's a bit fast-paced in here these days to say the least. Pretty much just a continuous flood. | 01:19 |
| hangdeadman | okay, brb with the info: Jordan_U, thanks | 01:20 |
| zykotick9 | Boohbah: if it's arch why are you asking here? | 01:20 |
| DarkTux | guys someone can enable the 3D cube Compiz in MATE with Ubuntu 12.04? | 01:20 |
| Boohbah | zykotick9: i wasn't asking anything | 01:20 |
| Jordan_U | hangdeadman: You're welcome. | 01:20 |
| nulldev | hangdeadman your updating to a different enviroment that wont work cleanly | 01:20 |
| EDawg878 | escott, Im just saying originally by default there was not silent splash | 01:20 |
| zykotick9 | Boohbah: ok, i've never seen rootfs before either... | 01:20 |
| escott | EDawg878, well in any case thats the correct line | 01:20 |
| EDawg878 | Okay | 01:20 |
| Jordan_U | Boohbah: Note that said "rootfs" not "/rootfs". I only have a problem with using "/rootfs". | 01:20 |
| hangdeadman | Jordan_U: how do I use bootchart once it's installed? | 01:21 |
| EDawg878 | Ill try this again | 01:21 |
| Boohbah | zykotick9: i'll start up ubuntu and check | 01:21 |
| escott | zykotick9, i think it gets that mountpoint in the initrd before the remount | 01:21 |
| DarkTux | fs = File Sharing | 01:21 |
| mcored | got exfat support :) | 01:21 |
| Jordan_U | !bootchart | hangdeadman | 01:21 |
| ubottu | hangdeadman: bootchart charts your machine at boot time, to install >> sudo apt-get install bootchart << the graphic is in /var/log/bootchart after the next reboot | 01:21 |
| escott | hangdeadman, it will dump a nice png in /var/log | 01:21 |
| Boohbah | Jordan_U: yes, it's all very confusing :) | 01:21 |
| DarkTux | what is bootchart? | 01:21 |
| zykotick9 | Boohbah: my df-h output show /dev/sda1, not rootfs? (but i'm not on ubuntu) | 01:21 |
| hangdeadman | thanks! | 01:21 |
| Boohbah | DarkTux: a tool for performance analysis and visualization of the GNU/Linux boot process. | 01:22 |
| DarkTux | great! i never see these tool XD | 01:23 |
| nasuga | When I install Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on a seperate partition and GRUB hasn't detected my XP partition. Is it a bug? | 01:23 |
| Boohbah | zykotick9: yes, my ubuntu 12.04 also says /dev/sda1 and not rootfs | 01:23 |
| Boohbah | coreutils 8.13 | 01:23 |
| DarkTux | guys sorry for my bad english, i am from Argentina :X | 01:23 |
| Boohbah | de nada | 01:23 |
| curiousx | DarkTux: me too :X | 01:23 |
| nulldev | people stop confusing /rootfs rootfs for things not even related, cant thing of any guides other than using unix/linux for a while to teaaaaach sorry | 01:23 |
| Jordan_U | nasuga: It usually means that your Windows installation is broken rather than there being any problem with grub. What is the output of "sudo os-prober"? | 01:23 |
| DarkTux | jjee | 01:23 |
| DarkTux | al fin alguien que habla spanish | 01:24 |
| escott | zykotick9, Boohbah What is rootfs? | 01:24 |
| escott | --------------- | 01:24 |
| escott | Rootfs is a special instance of ramfs (or tmpfs, if that's enabled), which is | 01:24 |
| escott | always present in 2.6 systems. You can't unmount rootfs for approximately the | 01:24 |
| escott | same reason you can't kill the init process; rather than having special code | 01:24 |

| Jordan_U | PianoMan8912: You can mount such that it appears that all files belong to your user (basically the same as Apple's "ignore permissions" option). But if you do that I would recommend that you mount it read only so that you don't accidentily write files with permissions you don't intend. | 01:30 |

| sacarlson | arooni-mobile: can't you at least copy the magnet link and paist it into qtorrent or other software? | 01:48 |
| Jordan_U | PianoMan8912: It's not the greatest work around since it's dangerous, but you can run "gksudo nautilus" to run nautilus (the file browser) as root. But be *very* careful as that will allow you to break things very easily with only a small mistake. | 01:49 |
| PianoMan8912 | I try to get into a personal folder and it says that I have been denied permission | 01:49 |
| Norton | nulldev dont let me install anything | 01:49 |
| hangdeadman | escott: how could I remove ureadahead? do I need it? | 01:49 |
| nulldev | norton your apt-get install needs a pakage name | 01:49 |
| PianoMan8912 | Jordan_U: what would be the SAFE route? | 01:49 |
| Chuck_Norris | Norton: sudo apt-get install -f | 01:50 |
| escott | hangdeadman, you dont want to remove it. you want it to work. right now it seems to be sitting there not driving much (if any) disk activity | 01:50 |
| sacarlson | arooni-mobile: I guess depending on the browser you use there is also probly a method to select the action taken when a magnet link is clicked | 01:50 |
| Chuck_Norris | Norton: sudo aptitude install -f | 01:50 |
| nulldev | isnt install -f the file name put after? | 01:50 |
| arooni-mobile | sacarlson, ive read up on it and have tried various fixes | 01:50 |
| hangdeadman | escott: how can i find out what the problem is? | 01:50 |
| escott | hangdeadman, how many boots have you gone through since your update? | 01:50 |
| sacarlson | arooni-mobile: on what browser? firefox? and what version of firefox if so? | 01:51 |
| hangdeadman | escott: ALOT | 01:51 |
| Norton | same problem i'll put the output on stacktrace | 01:51 |
| hangdeadman | escott: maybe 25-30 | 01:51 |
| arooni-mobile | sacarlson, i use chrome; and latest | 01:51 |
| lorddelta | hello? anyone know if ubuntu encrypts memory on suspend/hibernate/sleep? | 01:52 |
| hangdeadman | escott: since my upgrade to 12.04 I mean. I sudo apt-get update before shutdown every time. | 01:52 |
| sacarlson | arooni-mobile: well chrome is not for features it's made for speed, so if you want features try firefox that has plugins for it https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/magnetiser/ | 01:52 |
| Norton | i tried something with "apt-get install aptitude" | 01:52 |
| nulldev | lordelta I dont know ubuntu so well but know Linux so no it wont | 01:53 |
| Norton | and same problem | 01:53 |
| escott | hangdeadman, what are the datestamps of /var/lib/ureadahead's pack files | 01:53 |
| Norton | Chuck_Norris: I leave the output on stacktrace | 01:54 |
| sacarlson | arooni-mobile: otherwise you will have to live with copy and paisting the link manualy into qtorrent or other | 01:54 |
| arooni-mobile | sacarlson, i see | 01:54 |
| hangdeadman | escott: there is only a file that says: pack and one that says: run.pack | 01:55 |
| escott | hangdeadman, and how old is it? | 01:56 |
| nulldev | aroni-mobile what is it your looking at achieving? | 01:56 |
| PianoMan8912 | any takers? | 01:56 |
| hangdeadman | escott: the pack file? | 01:56 |
| reisio | PianoMan8912: I've been known to take things | 01:56 |
| escott | hangdeadman, the fact that there is only run.pack and not a "pack" may be indicative that ureadahead isnt working | 01:57 |
| reisio | ah, /ignore *!*floodbot@ubuntu/bot/floodbot all, lovely | 01:58 |
| hangdeadman | escott: the properties on the file say modified today. I installed ubuntu 3 months ago at 10.10 and my computer is a dell inspiron 1545, only a year old | 01:58 |
| reisio | oh not | 01:58 |
| PianoMan8912 | resio: sarcasm? :P | 01:58 |
| reisio | PianoMan8912: well didn't work | 01:58 |
| hangdeadman | escott: there is a pack file and a run.pack file. | 01:58 |
| hangdeadman | escott: and an empty debugfs folder | 01:59 |

| PianoMan8912 | reisio: I think I am just going to try getting back on Mac (I have another one) and access them and backdoor them to a USB drive | 02:01 |
| PianoMan8912 | thanks for your kindness! | 02:01 |

| bwayne | hello earth_creatures. i seem to have nuked a necessary partition while installing Ubuntu. I'm not new to this. But this time I did something extra-ordinary, apparently. Windows is fine. I can mount it. I just can't boot into the darn thing! The usual tricks (bootsect /fixmbr ; bootrec /fixboot) aren't doing it because of that darned deleted partition. I'm blaming Acer! | 02:02 |
| mernilio | This might be off topic, but.. We have all heard about the sea level rising with the global warming. Thing is, ice has more displacement that water.. ice expands!!! | 02:02 |
| reisio | bwayne: greetings | 02:02 |
| bwayne | hi reisio | 02:02 |
| Boohbah | bwayne: it sounds like you need to fix grub | 02:02 |
| bwayne | grub works fine | 02:02 |
| Norton | jaa | 02:02 |
| reisio | bwayne: which did you delete? | 02:03 |
| Jordan_U | bwayne: Since this is a Windows problem, try ##windows. | 02:03 |
| Boohbah | oh, maybe the windows bootloader | 02:03 |
| mernilio | I prefer lilo, i think its more easy to manage. | 02:03 |
| nulldev | bwayne sound like you wiped your MBR out and grub hasnt installed properly && other than that I cant help any further | 02:03 |
| bwayne | reisio, it was a little 100MB NTFS partition just before the main windows installation. yeah, Boohbah, it's the windows boatloader (BOOTMGR not found when I boot from grub directly to it) | 02:04 |
| mernilio | grub for me is a mess. A "normal" user cant use it. | 02:04 |
| seb_ | How do I downgrade flash from 11 to 10.x ? the new version does not work with my computer. | 02:04 |
| mernilio | normal users even attend irc :-) | 02:04 |
| harovali | hi, I have to install ubuntu in a "nettop" computer. I tried to boot with ubuntu precise pangolin lts, and even being the case that the 'boot screen' appears, the rest of the booting hangs and stalls. Does anyone know what's the right thing to do in this case ? The CPU seems to be an AMD | 02:04 |
| mernilio | dont.. ^ | 02:04 |
| Jordan_U | mernilio: Do you have an Ubuntu support question? | 02:05 |
| escott | hangdeadman, i would try removing the files in /var/lib/ureadahead and then reboot once to finish profiling, and then another time to see if ureadahead starts to work. then we/you can compare the three bootcharts | 02:05 |
| OerHeks | seb_, not. | 02:05 |
| harovali | the commercial brand of the computer is Foxconn | 02:05 |
| mernilio | Jordan_U: i do, How do i install the python IDE Eric3? <-- | 02:06 |
| hangdeadman | :escott okay, brb, thanks! | 02:06 |
| seb_ | OerHeks what do you mean | 02:06 |
| nulldev | foxconn >> dev/null | 02:06 |
| mernilio | Jordan_U: it's your special job tonight! :-P | 02:06 |
| Needer_of_Help | joined drupal-support and asked my Q there but I would think setting up FTP is as much an ubuntu issue | 02:06 |
| Bsims | bwayne: best I can google you are gonna have to reinstall windows sorry man | 02:06 |
| Boohbah | nulldev: how about STDERR? | 02:06 |
| Norton | jajajaj Needer_of_Help | 02:07 |
| OerHeks | <seb_> How do I downgrade flash from 11 to 10.x , answer: not possible. | 02:07 |
| reisio | it's possible, but unnecessary | 02:07 |
| Norton | upload your problem on stacktrace Needer_of_Help | 02:07 |
| Norton | and i'll see it | 02:07 |
| nulldev | boohbah in what regards stderr is the error mesages outputted from the shell | 02:07 |
| rurufufuss | greetings, my ubuntu desktop seems to be working/processing stuff (computer busy LED and that processing sound) when I'm not at the computer sometimes -- any guess what it could be? | 02:07 |
| Norton | rurufufuss: there is live inside | 02:08 |
| mernilio | How can i help with free software? I rule with language, but i have done it before. I want to go further! | 02:08 |
| Boohbah | nulldev: yeah, >> will only redirect stdout | 02:08 |
| rurufufuss | Norton: aliens or nsa? | 02:08 |
| nulldev | boohbah :) | 02:08 |
| Norton | jaaaa rurufufuss both, maybe you have cron tasks that do that | 02:09 |
| nulldev | bohbah it will redirect or append to a file | 02:09 |
| openfreelinux | mernilio: u mean u want to translate sth? | 02:10 |
| Boohbah | mernilio: learn to program, contribute to your favorite projects | 02:10 |
| mernilio | I have an ide about "learning wallpapers". Wallpapers teachers can use as a learning tool. Just basic stuff. For example the radius of the earth is 6500 km.. | 02:10 |
| mernilio | Boohbah: Thats the problem, all good proggies has allready been made :-) | 02:11 |
| drecute | hello everyone | 02:11 |
| mernilio | I cant contribute i think.. | 02:11 |
| openfreelinux | best think about free software is that everyone can contribute | 02:12 |
| mernilio | openfreelinux: well, i could translate if it's a good project! | 02:12 |
| drecute | please I need a iptables sample to allow all incoming and all outgoing connections | 02:12 |
| bwayne | Oh yeah, by the way, great job on 12.04. This things rock solid. | 02:12 |
| mernilio | bbl | 02:12 |
| Norton | drecute: disable iptables | 02:12 |
| drecute | ok cool | 02:13 |

| JonEdney | Anyone know of a fix for Unity when it don't work? I installed Gnome Shell and wanted to go back to Unity, but only 2D works. | 02:13 |
| JonEdney | I can live with it, but I'd love for the settings back to normal. | 02:13 |
| Norton | Hey guys, I'm stuck with this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10867312/cant-fix-dependecy-problems-on-ubuntu-12-04-libcanberra-gtk | 02:14 |
| jonathon | hello can anyone help with thunderbird 12 on ubuntu 12.04 | 02:15 |
| Norton | jonathon: what happen | 02:15 |
| reisio | jonathon: nope, but some people can help | 02:15 |
| nulldev | norton something relating to gnome is preventing the install | 02:15 |
| reisio | !ops schizophrenic bots | 02:15 |
| ubottu | reisio: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 02:15 |
| reisio | add one more bot to that list | 02:16 |
| nulldev | if your on unity you need to remove those packages | 02:16 |
| Norton | jonathon: be more specific | 02:16 |
| OerHeks | Norton, when does this happen? with a PPA? | 02:16 |
| jonathon | fresh install of 12.04. I cannot get Thunderbird to connect to any mail server. RSS feeds download fine but no email. Migrating from ubuntu 10.04. I copied my .thunderbird folder, which worked fine in 10.04, to this build. all my settings are from a working build but I cannot connect | 02:17 |
| Norton | OerHeks: what is PPA | 02:17 |
| Norton | tosay | 02:17 |
| Norton | today | 02:17 |
| jonathon | I am connecting through a proxy with authentication. I used Dconf editor to set the proxy settings as well as the system settings>network proxy. | 02:18 |
| bwayne | jonathon, try moving .thunderbird to .bak.thunderbird and resetup your accounts. if it works, you know the Thunnderbird has changed its .config files in some way. | 02:18 |
| ClientAlive | Hey guys. When I try to set up bridged networking with a static ip for my guests it makes my host o/s unable to resolve url's. With the host I can ping the loopback, I can ping the nameserver, I can ping my laptop and I can ping 8.8.8.8 (which is google) but not www.google.com. My guest are all able to get on the internet through a web browser. Does anyone have an idea what the problem might be? | 02:18 |
| OerHeks | Norton, your post isn't clear about what you try to install and how, explain please | 02:18 |
| jonathon | bwayne, I tried and cannot setup a new account. It gets stuck on "checking password" with any email I try to input | 02:19 |
| Norton | The proble is that i cant install nothing, neither upgrade becouse a unmet dependency | 02:19 |
| Norton | i'll try to edit the post to make it more clear | 02:19 |
| hangdeadman | escott: boot one: http://imagebin.org/214920 | 02:21 |
| bwayne | jonathon, well, barring any misconfiguration on your end, there may be a little bug in this version of thunderbird. hard to say. if you're comfortable compiling from source, try downgrading manually. | 02:21 |
| hangdeadman | escott: boot two: http://imagebin.org/214921 | 02:21 |
| Gushings | How do I setup autossh to take a password? | 02:22 |

| OccupyDemonoid | Hello, how can I set up VNC on Ubuntu Server? | 02:23 |
| escott | hangdeadman, do you have something that dynamically creates the motd? | 02:23 |
| reisio | OccupyDemonoid: comes with a server by default, IIRC | 02:23 |
| OccupyDemonoid | reisio, it comes with the server by default? | 02:24 |
| hangdeadman | escott, i don't know what motd is | 02:24 |
| Norton | OccupyDemonoid: try with google | 02:24 |
| OccupyDemonoid | I have already. | 02:24 |
| Norton | OccupyDemonoid: http://nuclear-imaging.info/site_content/2011/05/11/vnc-server-setup-for-ubuntu-11-04-natty-narwhal/ | 02:25 |

| OccupyDemonoid | Sweet, thank you, Norton. | 02:26 |
| Crankygeek | Hello room | 02:26 |
| clausen | do any of the standard archive formats (tar, zip, ar, etc.) support inserting new files in an arbitrary location into the archive? | 02:26 |
| Norton | hangdeadman: Crankygeek | 02:26 |
| escott | hangdeadman, it seems to me that ureadahead is not doing enough. im not sure why that is the case though | 02:26 |
| Norton | clausen: all | 02:26 |
| escott | hangdeadman, plymouthd is the thing that draws the ubuntu .... | 02:26 |
| Norton | i dont know how but the answer is yes | 02:26 |
| Norton | jejej | 02:27 |
| clausen | Norton, ? | 02:27 |
| hangdeadman | escott, should plymouthd be taking so long to start? | 02:27 |
| Crankygeek | hmm | 02:27 |
| Crankygeek | better now | 02:28 |
| Norton | clausen: you can do that | 02:28 |
| escott | hangdeadman, thats how long it is running for. the important thing is that it is gray meaning it isnt really doing anything. what seems wrong to me is that i would expect ureadahead to be a long DARK PINK bar because it should be reading all the files needed by everything that follows it in the optimal order. that would make your disk throughput (the green line in the second chart) to be a nice horizontal line | 02:29 |
| clausen | Norton, for example, if I have archive.tar with 3 files, how would I insert a 4th file into, say, the 2nd position? | 02:29 |
| Norton | what you mean 2nd position??? | 02:29 |
| hangdeadman | escott: okay, where should I go from here to figure out what the problem is? | 02:29 |
| clausen | (I could obviously extract the whole thing... but that's not so efficient) | 02:30 |
| clausen | Norton, I mean, tar stores files sequentially, and I want, say, the new addition to be inserted in the middle (before the 2nd file) | 02:30 |
| escott | hangdeadman, that i just dont know. | 02:31 |
| Norton | clausen: mmm why you want to do that? | 02:31 |
| clausen | Norton, security reasons | 02:31 |
| hangdeadman | awesome, thanks for the help though. | 02:31 |
| escott | hangdeadman, check for errors in the boot.log | 02:32 |
| clausen | Norton, I want a "history-independent" archive -- I want to hide the age of the files | 02:32 |
| clausen | (and the order they were added) | 02:32 |
| escott | hangdeadman, or syslog | 02:32 |
| Norton | clausen: interesting but i cant help you | 02:32 |
| bwayne | clausen, if you don't want them to be in order of time, you can always `finger` them. | 02:33 |
| clausen | Norton, thanks for thinking about it | 02:33 |
| clausen | bwayne, ? | 02:33 |
| hangdeadman | escott: where do I find those? | 02:33 |
| escott | hangdeadman, /var/log | 02:33 |
| bwayne | clausen, you can alter files like that with finger. | 02:34 |
| clausen | bwayne, you mean touch(1) ? | 02:34 |
| clausen | bwayne, finger(1) is a networking program | 02:34 |
| bwayne | clausen, oh. yes, sorry. finger ... touch ... iget them mixed up sometimes. | 02:35 |
| clausen | bwayne, you have to use finger on the filesystem, not on the archive | 02:36 |
| clausen | my problem is equivalent to: can I merge two tar files, maintaining alphabetical order? | 02:36 |
| clausen | I could write my own program to do it... | 02:37 |
| clausen | maybe I will :) | 02:37 |
| hangdeadman | escott: no errors that I can see in either, any other reccomendations? | 02:38 |
| bwayne | that'd be interesting, clausen. | 02:38 |
| sandyd | I need some help with my NFS4 Datastore. I currently have it running on Debian. Mounting it on ubuntu causes it to have nobody:nobody as a owner, which makes nginx not capable of writing to there. | 02:41 |
| hangdeadman | Does anybody else by chance have any advice on how to get ureadahead working on my ubuntu 12.04 on a dell inspiron 1545? | 02:41 |
| bwayne | clausen, you could probably do it with a for loop and the --add-file option. then again, you may look into the -m option. | 02:42 |
| clausen | bwayne, --add-file appends to the end? | 02:42 |
| kandinski | hi, how do I make Transmission follow the global proxy setup? (12.04) | 02:42 |
| hangdeadman | escott: could i possibly reinstall ureadahead? | 02:42 |
| bwayne | clausen, yes. | 02:42 |
| escott | hangdeadman, i dont know how that would help | 02:43 |
| clausen | bwayne, then that's no good... I won't the history of the archive to be destroyed | 02:43 |
| clausen | s/won't/want/ | 02:43 |
| Heridan | Hi, is anybody here willing to help me with some questions concerning ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS, especially about screen and java? | 02:44 |
| bwayne | clausen, sounds like you need more than just a tarball for all of these security concerns. maybe you're trying to use a hammer when you need a screwdriver? | 02:44 |
| kandinski | I have a global proxy configured on localhost:9999, and I am running a "ssh -D 9999 -C $myremotehost" tunnel | 02:44 |
| clausen | bwayne, well, the tar format is fine | 02:44 |
| bwayne | Heridan, I've used screen some, but recently i've started using tmux and haven't looked back. | 02:44 |
| kandinski | but I think Transmission is still connecting via the local IP | 02:45 |
| clausen | bwayne, I think I can wip up a program to merge tarballs in an hour... | 02:45 |
| clausen | bwayne, doing it now :) | 02:45 |
| jonathon | Is anyone else having problems with email clients in ubuntu 12.04 | 02:45 |
| Heridan | bwayne: So is this a yes or do you want me to look for someone else? :) | 02:45 |
| bwayne | clausen, you can do a simple merge of tarballs with --concatenate. | 02:45 |
| openfreelinux | using ssh for torrent, is that really a good idea? | 02:45 |
| clausen | bwayne, but that has the same problem | 02:46 |
| clausen | (as --add-file) | 02:46 |
| bwayne | Heridan, well, if you're wanting java help, then definitely someone else. :-) maybe even in #java or something. | 02:46 |
| clausen | I want a merge that preserves alphabetical order, or something like that | 02:46 |
| bwayne | well, off to try to fix windows boot record stuff. bye! | 02:46 |

| ClientAlive | I'm running the one for bridged with dhcp (dhcp is unacceptable, I need the other method to work for me) | 03:03 |
| cvr | ClientAlive, so if you type $ nslookup google.com what server does it show connecting to for the dns? | 03:04 |
| ClientAlive | a who slew of stuff | 03:04 |
| ClientAlive | about a dozen addresses | 03:05 |
| ClientAlive | should I reconfigure the network with the config file that's giving me the problems though? | 03:05 |
| cvr | yeh but the first address where is says server is where its getting the info from | 03:05 |
| ClientAlive | server" 24.220.0.20" "Address: 24.220.0.1-#53" | 03:06 |

| Yago | hello | 03:07 |
| Enguru | My Ubuntu Software Center wont open >.< | 03:07 |
| Cody_R | Would anyone be able to help me chmod my wubi installation from a live cd? Trying to install grub | 03:07 |
| cvr | ClientAlive, so its connecting to the dns server u want and its receiving the addresses | 03:07 |
| Enguru | anyway to troubleshoot? | 03:07 |
| Yago | What is the name of the startup screen where you can choose Windows or Ubuntu after you install Wubi? | 03:08 |
| ClientAlive | yeah, but this is a different config file that does work. A diff /etc/network/interfaces (I didn't know if I should have reconfigured the one that I need but that breaks the system before coming here) | 03:09 |
| PyTinker | is the googletesting framework for c++ available from the software center? | 03:09 |
| naryfa | grub? | 03:09 |
| naryfa | Yago: is it grub? | 03:10 |
| cvr | ClientAlive, ahh so its probably just your interface file that is broken, can u send the one that doesnt work to pastebin | 03:10 |
| Yago | naryfa: I don't know, im wondering | 03:10 |
| bwayne | oh well. | 03:10 |
| Yago | naryfa: its definately not the purple ubuntu screen | 03:10 |
| Yago | naryfa: its black | 03:10 |
| ClientAlive | I have it up. let me get yo the url | 03:11 |
| naryfa | Yago: the only thing I can think of where you choose the OS is grub | 03:11 |
| ClientAlive | this is the one that breaks the system (I've also just reconfig the system to be using it) http://paste.ubuntu.com/1020623/ | 03:12 |
| smw | Yago, I think wubi uses a windows boot loader | 03:12 |
| naryfa | I never used Wubi actually, I'm sorry | 03:12 |
| smw | Yago, "Windows Boot Manager" | 03:12 |
| Yago | oh ok | 03:12 |
| Yago | thanks | 03:12 |
| Yago | now heres the realy question | 03:12 |
| escott | Cody_R, presumably find the wubi image and loop mount it | 03:12 |
| ClientAlive | If I do nslookup google.com with this configuration it hangs for about 5 sec or so then prints that it timed out to the screen | 03:13 |
| Yago | Is there a way i can edit my Windows Boot Manager to get rid of the 10 second timer that lets me choose either Windows or Ubuntu? | 03:14 |
| naryfa | Yago: msconfig? | 03:14 |
| lorddelta | Hello? Any chance some could tell me how to reset the unity desktop. I usually use the kubuntu desktop, but my ubuntu desktop refuses to work properly. If I'm lucky, sometimes I see the unity bars before the thing crashes. | 03:14 |
| bwayne | Yago: i use EasyBCD | 03:14 |
| Yago | naryfa: is it possible? | 03:14 |
| lorddelta | And sometimes I'm unlucky and have no window borders period. | 03:14 |
| Yago | bwayne: whats that? | 03:14 |
| smw | Yago, then how will you select ubuntu or windows? | 03:14 |
| Cody_R | escott: I found a tutorial, attempted to do that, but it can't find the root.disk file in my windows partition | 03:15 |
| bwayne | Yago, free software that will let you edit the windows boot configuration. i prefer it to grub. | 03:15 |
| Yago | smw: i want to remove the timer or shorten it... | 03:15 |
| naryfa | Yago: open RUN dialog in Win and type MSCONFIG | 03:15 |
| cvr | ClientAlive, what type of virtualisation are u using? | 03:15 |
| naryfa | Yago: then go to Boot tab | 03:15 |
| Yago | naryfa: im not in windows right now :( | 03:15 |
| naryfa | Yago: play there | 03:15 |
| ClientAlive | kvm | 03:15 |
| Yago | ok | 03:15 |
| mcored | found cvr !! after so many tries http://www.linuxine.com/story/foobnix-simple-and-powerful-music-player | 03:16 |
| naryfa | Yago: where are you then? | 03:16 |
| Yago | bwayne: is there like an official web or something? | 03:16 |
| Yago | Ubuntu | 03:16 |
| Yago | via Wubi | 03:16 |
| mcored | http://www.foobnix.com/faq?lang=en is the homepage | 03:16 |
| smw | Yago, ... also about the question you asked earlier. That black screen you were talking about says "Windows Boot Manager" at the very top :-) | 03:16 |
| cvr | mcored, nice one | 03:17 |
| bwayne | Yago, http://neosmart.net/download.php?id=1 . It says register, but you don't have to. Just hit the download button. | 03:17 |
| Yago | smw: Oh I didn't notice cause of the 10 seconds... Im basically rushing to read everything on screen | 03:17 |
| Yago | bwayne: k thanks ill try it :0 | 03:17 |
| Yago | ) | 03:17 |
| smw | Yago, did you try clicking the down button? | 03:17 |
| bwayne | it works like a charm | 03:17 |
| smw | Yago, that should stop the clock... | 03:18 |
| cvr | ClientAlive, you dont have eth0 defined anywhere in that file? | 03:18 |
| Yago | smw: yea after I had to restart 3 times cause i didn't notice the timer lol | 03:18 |
| naryfa | Yago: If you want to edit the windows bootloader, it is better you do it from under windows | 03:18 |
| ClientAlive | sure I do, its: " bridge_ports eth0" | 03:18 |
| Yago | Another problem: I'm having trouble installing chrome on ubuntu the software center keeps saying i must repair it and I repeat the whole cycle over and over again | 03:19 |
| ClientAlive | is there more to it than that? | 03:19 |
| cvr | try adding | 03:19 |
| Yago | naryfa: Yes. Thank-you. I will switch over in a short while | 03:19 |
| cvr | auto eth0 | 03:19 |
| cvr | iface eth0 inet manual | 03:19 |
| cvr | above it in the file | 03:20 |
| naryfa | Yago: do you know how to manually install a program? Via terminal? | 03:20 |
| ClientAlive | ok, I'll check back and make sure I have everything there correctly. thx | 03:20 |
| Yago | naryfa: I know how to isntall one using apt-get, but this is a file not from a repo | 03:21 |
| cvr | ClientAlive, ok gl | 03:21 |
| Yago | naryfa: i forgot how to install an actual file | 03:21 |
| Yago | basically no | 03:21 |
| VeraMono | is there a theme repo? | 03:21 |
| Yago | naryfa: Usually i just double click | 03:21 |
| naryfa | Yago: try it this way: http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppa/google_chrome | 03:22 |
| Yago | ok. If I install chrome the normal way through the software center, does it autoupdate? | 03:23 |
| naryfa | Yago: uhm... if updates make it to the repos you'll get an update manager noticifaction I guess | 03:23 |
| naryfa | Yago: if that's what you're asking about | 03:23 |
| Yago | so it autoadds the repo? | 03:23 |
| naryfa | Yago: you mean, what I gave you? If it adds the repo? | 03:24 |
| Yago | ^^^ thats what I meant, sorry for not being clear | 03:24 |
| jrich82 | I am having a difficult time finding an answer to my problem. i was told this might be a good palce to start? | 03:24 |
| naryfa | Yago: It will give you the repo of a latest stable Chrome, and that's what you'll be installing | 03:24 |
| Yago | naryfa: Oh, no i meant the file from google.com/chrome download | 03:24 |
| naryfa | Yago: never done it this way | 03:25 |
| naryfa | Yago: you may get the deb file here though https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/?platform=linux | 03:25 |
| naryfa | Yago: But I still suggest the repo | 03:26 |
| naryfa | Yago: it's up to you | 03:26 |
| jrich82 | I am using Ubuntu 12.04 and in games with fullscreen mode, there is like a bottom strip that the mouse cannot go into and consequently, I can't click on any buttons in that strip, the mouse doesn't even go into it. There seems to be some kind fo invisible barrier. ? I am confused... | 03:26 |
| Yago | naryfa: both of those methods autoupdate? | 03:27 |
| cvr | jrich82, have you tried running the games with the 3d desktop turned off? | 03:27 |
| naryfa | Yago: no, only repos | 03:28 |
| jrich82 | @cvr ...no. I have not. i can give that a shot. I can';t seem to find anything in google or Ubuntu forums related to it. | 03:28 |
| Yago | naryfa: ok thanks | 03:28 |
| naryfa | Yago: no prob | 03:28 |
| jrich82 | @cvr I'll give it a shot and see what happens. I am new to Linux in general and have learned a lot in the two weeks I've used it. If that doesn't work, any other suggestons to look at? | 03:30 |
| y0om4 | hi | 03:30 |
| cvr | jrich82, not really sry, whenever i've had problems with fullscreen games compiz has usually been behind it | 03:30 |
| y0om4 | is there a way to zoom out the current desktop display? I have to enter information in a window but even alt f7 does not work because it does not grp it | 03:31 |
| jrich82 | So that's what handles the desktop... I've seen videos on Youtube talking abotu compiz and another like it... I'll keep snooping around. Worse case scenario if I break something I can always reinstall. Thanks! I'll try it now. | 03:31 |
| ClientAlive | I'm just curious about something. You see, I've thought that I need a static bridged setup to use nfs for shared storage. Is that really correct? My bridged networking setup that uses dhcp works just fine. But if I were to use that configuration, what would I put in the nfs config file (exports) as far as identifying what computer (guests in this case) can access the share?? | 03:36 |
| cvr | ClientAlive, cant you just put the whole subnet in? | 03:38 |
| Jpgman | Hey guys, why was Dodge Windows removed from 12.04 | 03:38 |

| Revealer | the company that makes it is called absolute software | 03:43 |
| ClientAlive | cvr: not really sure. I'm a newb to this area of doing things so have been trying to find a tutorial that I can just follow. Problem is, I don't want to just do it any old way (I actually care about some level of security). | 03:43 |
| Revealer | again, most machines come with this BIOS level rootkit known as lojack | 03:43 |
| kaushal | Any known issue? | 03:43 |
| Revealer | computrace lojack | 03:43 |
| Revealer | easily exploited for total control of a system including keylogging and location information | 03:44 |
| Revealer | some sytems even have a chip in the motherboard to reload the rootkit code | 03:44 |
| Revealer | please research this | 03:44 |
| cvr | ClientAlive, if you dont want to have the whole subnet able to connect to the share (which is what I have on my lan) why not set your dhcp server to assign the guests a static ip via dhcp? | 03:44 |
| ClientAlive | I can do that? | 03:45 |
| majestouch | So i have tried to Burn an iso of Ubuntu 64bit but when i try to boot from it everything is very slow sluggish / laggy takes ages and when it finally boots up the window with the welcome screen that lets you choose if you want to install or try the live disk is Just white and non responsive, this happens when i try to create a live USB as well | 03:45 |
| majestouch | can anyone help me out ? | 03:45 |
| cvr | yeh, what are u using for dhcp serving? | 03:45 |
| ClientAlive | I saw something like that in my router config but wasn't sure the proper way to do it. Would you be willing to coach me just a bit? | 03:45 |
| Sav1or | FREE KEVIN | 03:45 |
| ClientAlive | oh, but it's guest on a virtual system that would ultimately be accessing the nfs share (not physical computers) | 03:46 |
| cvr | ClientAlive, if its in your router probably the best way is to set the IP-address based on the mac address it should have that option | 03:46 |
| MaynardWaters | is there a #ubuntu-newbee channel? | 03:46 |
| ClientAlive | ok | 03:46 |
| ClientAlive | would the mac address of a guest be visible to the router? | 03:47 |
| cvr | ClientAlive, if its able to talk to the router to get the address it will, its just a virtual mac address anyway | 03:48 |

| ClientAlive | kvm sets up NAT by default, I thought that what we're talking about was the reason for bridging | 03:49 |

| Lavagolemking | Quick question: How well does Skype work in 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04? | 03:50 |
| cvr | Lavagolemking, as well as it works anywhere in my experience | 03:51 |
| Lavagolemking | cvr: And your experiences has been good or bad? | 03:51 |
| ClientAlive | with dhcp it works but with static it doesen't (as per our original conversation). After you mentioned I needed to add those lines regarding eth0 to the interfaces file I wanted to double check with tutorials I've seen. The one I could find (that I've been using) does not have those lines and I don't recall seeing it like that in the others I've seen in the past. | 03:52 |
| cvr | Lavagolemking, they've been alright, it calls and messages fine | 03:52 |

| jbander1 | Thanks everyone got everything back but I can't still change my desktop | 04:22 |
| scp1 | bye | 04:22 |
| Flannel | cknox: You should really use adduser instead of usermod to add people to groups. | 04:22 |
| Flannel | (you can also use deluser to remove people from groups) | 04:22 |
| cvr | jbander1, you just want to change the background? just type appearance into the dash and change it from there | 04:24 |
| jbander1 | I go to change your desktop and I go to something called appearance I change the picture in the test screen but it never converts to my desktop | 04:25 |
| chaospsychex | can someone help me. i just installed 12.04 and in 'additional drivers' it says that the 'broadcom sta linux driver' is in use but my wifi isn't working? | 04:27 |
| cvr | jbander1, not sure then | 04:27 |
| jbander1 | There is no apply button on my appearance page | 04:27 |
| xangua | chaospsychex: so you just enabled them¿ did you restart¿ | 04:28 |
| cvr | jbander1, it automatically changes the background when u click the image when its working properly | 04:28 |
| chaospsychex | xangua, well i deactivated it then activated it but haven't restarted | 04:28 |
| jbander1 | I didn't in my last three builds | 04:28 |
| chaospsychex | after initial install it said it was activated which was weird because i never activated it | 04:28 |
| jbander1 | I don't know what it would be if it carries over from build to build | 04:29 |
| chaospsychex | it says driver is activated and currently in use but wifi is not working, it hasn't even been initialized | 04:33 |
| kisuke | ok on precise what do i need to do to get bluetooth (audio sink) working consistantly? | 04:33 |
| kisuke | lsusb | 04:34 |
| === `mOOse` is now known as m00se | ||
| chaospsychex | is this a known problem? | 04:35 |
| chaospsychex | it's the broadcom linux sta driver | 04:35 |
| kisuke | chaospsychex: STA? | 04:36 |
| chaospsychex | broadcom sta wireless driver, yes | 04:37 |
| chipotle | how do i setup a vnc server in ubuntu, so i can access my computer from elsewhere? | 04:37 |
| chaospsychex | activated and in use, but wifi hasn't even been init | 04:37 |
| jagginess | chipotle, i have an easier solution.. | 04:37 |
| chipotle | what? | 04:37 |
| jagginess | chipotle, http://www.nomachine.com/preview/select-package-virtual-desktop-workstation.php?os=linux | 04:38 |
| chipotle | i'm on a win7 laptop though | 04:38 |
| jagginess | chipotle, dpkg -i <package.deb> , then https://<ip>:4080 (or use nomachine player) | 04:38 |
| chipotle | seems it only works fro linux | 04:39 |
| chipotle | what makes this better than vnc? | 04:39 |
| jagginess | chipotle, https:// | 04:39 |

| jagginess | chipotle, if you want to use a binary client (a bit faster), you download the binary client (which is available on win/mac/linux) | 04:40 |
| chaospsychex | does it download the firmware when you activate the driver ? | 04:41 |
| chipotle | jagginess: and it is free? | 04:41 |
| jagginess | chipotle, also for the binary client, (ssh server needs to be installed on server) | 04:41 |
| jagginess | chipotle, yes. up to 4 virtual desktops.. (some code is gpl, other parts arent) | 04:41 |
| kisuke | any onw know why a bluetooth headset (audio sink service) quits working after ~ 10 minutes? | 04:43 |
| dooglus | the download speed showing up in transmission is going up at the same rate as the amount downloaded | 04:44 |
| jagginess | chipotle, works? what you also get is remote audio.. this isnt available on vnc.. | 04:45 |
| jagginess | chipotle, i've been using this for over 2 months.. the license is free but restricted to 4 virtual desktops | 04:45 |
| jagginess | dooglus, that's not possible | 04:46 |
| CoJaBo | Is there an easier way to find all the dependancies of a tarball source without having to google each individual compile error? :/ | 04:52 |
| kisuke | any one know why a bluetooth headset (audio sink service) quits working after ~ 10 minutes? | 04:52 |
| CoJaBo | kisuke: Power save mode? | 04:52 |
| kisuke | CoJaBo: not enables in any way, shape or form. | 04:53 |
| _sjs | does anyone have any experience with getting tk to work with rvm? | 04:53 |
| kisuke | CoJaBo: it jsut cut out in the middle of useage and now it wont pair to the headset anymore. | 04:54 |
| jagginess | CoJaBo, maybe you should ask on #linux, you see.. it's standard to follow the README, and look at the makefile for library name hints.. (the tarball homepage should also say) | 04:54 |
| CoJaBo | kisuke: Some of the headsets themselves may; is audio playing? | 04:54 |
| kisuke | CoJaBo: it was. | 04:54 |
| CoJaBo | jagginess: There is no readme, and the site basically just says run make and pray -_-' | 04:54 |
| jagginess | CoJaBo, you have url? | 04:55 |
| CoJaBo | It gives little more than a vague overview of even how to use it lol | 04:55 |
| CoJaBo | jagginess: So far it seems to still be going; its at http://grail.cs.washington.edu/software/pmvs/ | 04:55 |
| CoJaBo | Its package 2 of 5 that I have to build :/ | 04:56 |
| jagginess | CoJaBo, library hints are alreay on the documentation link.. | 04:56 |
| CoJaBo | jagginess: Yeh, I installed those building package 1 lol.. It needs more than what is listed -_-' | 04:57 |
| jagginess | CoJaBo, to "compile" you need "<library-dev>" development header files--> compiler looks for (the compiler won't look for library-runtime files) | 04:58 |
| jagginess | (but of course you did the first half.. which is runtime library files which you need) | 04:58 |
| CoJaBo | It needed some image processing libs, etc; those weren't listed | 04:59 |
| CoJaBo | The error now is "fatal error: clapack/f2c.h: No such file or directory" | 04:59 |
| CoJaBo | but.. I already installed LAPACK. wth. | 05:00 |
| vent0r | anyone awake? | 05:00 |
| jagginess | CoJaBo, there's tools i guess, or you can try to grep the lines that say "include <><>" .. then use 'apt-file search <fileheader.h>' | 05:00 |

| Jordan_U | vent0r: What version of Ubuntu are you using? | 05:05 |
| vent0r | thanks jordan | 05:06 |
| vent0r | 10.04 | 05:06 |
| Jordan_U | vent0r: You're welcome. | 05:06 |
| Jordan_U | vent0r: For DisplayLink support I would highly recommend upgrading to Ubuntu 12.04 though, or at least testing with a LiveCD/USB to see if it works by default now. | 05:07 |
| vent0r | whats a good way to update? | 05:07 |
| vent0r | dont they use unity now | 05:07 |
| vent0r | i love my gnome | 05:07 |
| jagginess | CoJaBo, you using http://grail.cs.washington.edu/software/pmvs/pmvs-2.tar.gz ? | 05:07 |
| Jordan_U | !notunity | vent0r | 05:07 |
| ubottu | vent0r: 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 | 05:07 |
| CoJaBo | jagginess: Theres an updated version; but it doesn't have the binaries | 05:09 |
| CoJaBo | jagginess: Evidently, there were some files left out, the same ones were in package #1 I just copied from there... | 05:09 |

| DeathStars | How would I change the encrypted root that gets mounted on startup. Passing the cryptsetup=/dev/sda3:LinuxRoot param dosen't work seems like udev or something overides it | 05:12 |
| bwayne | looking for some rhythmbox help, gang. i want to sort my music by album-artist. That is, the album's artist, not the artist of the particular song. E.g, a mixed cd which is mixed by Digweed. I want that placed under "Digweed" and all of Digweed's albums put together. Anyone accomplish something similar? | 05:12 |
| DeathStars | I want to change it from mounting /dev/mapper/sda3_crypt to mounting /dev/mapper/LinuxRoot on startup. | 05:13 |
| DeathStars | Tried changing fstab and boot params... nothing. Just a failed boot. | 05:13 |
| Jordan_U | DeathStars: Did you also change the root= argument? | 05:13 |
| DeathStars | Jordan_U, Yup | 05:14 |
| Jordan_U | DeathStars: What is the contents of /proc/cmdline ? | 05:15 |
| DeathStars | Jordan_U, It may be a plymouth/udev thing though. Because when I ran "sudo grep -vHIr sda3_crypt /" it says /lib/init/rw/udev/data/b252:0 still contain the old one. | 05:15 |
| CoJaBo | egads, some of these -dev libs are huge :/ | 05:15 |
| DeathStars | And I had to switch back to sda3_crypt on the boot params to actually make it boot. so right now its "BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.2.0-24-generic root=/dev/mapper/sda3_crypt ro quiet splash" but before it was "BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.2.0-24-generic cryptdevice=/dev/sda3:LinuxRoot root=/dev/mapper/LinuxRoot ro quiet splash" | 05:16 |
| Jordan_U | DeathStars: You shouldn't need cryptdevice as far as I can tell. | 05:17 |
| DeathStars | Jordan_U, I know, but when I didn't have it I got the same result, so I just put it there because that's what worked on Arch haha. | 05:18 |
| DeathStars | Jordan_U, I recently switched back to Ubuntu after about ... 2 years? Of archlinux :P | 05:19 |

| Gushings | Like a domain name? | 05:54 |
| OccupyDemonoid | Yes | 05:54 |
| KRomo | what would be a good distro for a 7 year old who i am buying her first laptop? any suggested laptop with good compatibility? edubuntu? | 05:54 |
| Bhavesh | I will format my windows drive after Valve releases Steam for Linux | 05:54 |
| OccupyDemonoid | I suggest Xubuntu. | 05:54 |
| Gushings | You just need your DNS record to point at your server, OccupyDemonoid. | 05:54 |
| KRomo | xubuntu is good for kids? | 05:55 |
| OccupyDemonoid | So, I would need to make a DNS server first? | 05:55 |
| kisuke | cvr: Unable to get service record: Connection timed out (110) thats the only thing i can find. | 05:55 |
| kisuke | cvr ^ in /var/log/syslog. i have no /var/log/messages | 05:55 |
| Gushings | No, wherever you registered the domain name should have the records. | 05:55 |
| cvr | KRomo, xubuntu isnt aimed at kids no | 05:55 |
| Gushings | you can update them there, or transfer them to somewhere else. | 05:56 |
| KRomo | i know it isnt aimed but is it easiest to use and then good for them? | 05:56 |
| mikeS11 | Bhavesh: +1 | 05:56 |
| OccupyDemonoid | Okay, so I have to point that towards my IP of the server? | 05:56 |
| Gushings | Basically, apache will serve to whatever your current IP is at port 80. Your DNS record for your domain name will tell someone who types in your domain name what that IP is. | 05:57 |
| Blue1 | OccupyDemonoid: be awrare that some isp block income port 80 requests | 05:57 |
| cvr | KRomo, not really, it still has alot of rough edges as far as im concerned, kids are smart and will adapt to whatever they're given quickly | 05:57 |
| Gushings | you need to update that record to match your IP. | 05:57 |
| Gushings | Eh, I wouldn't worry about it. | 05:57 |

| Blue1 | Gushings: my isp (cox) blocks | 05:58 |
| OccupyDemonoid | Alright, thank you. The DNS would be myaddress:80? I can connect just fine through my phone to the IP so port 80 isn't blocked. | 05:59 |

| bazhang | Nerv, that has nothing to do with Ubuntu support. stop asking here | 06:07 |

| Nerv | Its Ubuntu support Shuttlort is Ubuntu And Ubuntu - OS of Shuttlworth | 06:08 |

| NoWayJose | I have Quicken on Windows 7, does ubuntu have a program that I can put all my checking information on from Quicken? | 06:10 |
| Andrew1 | okay i changed the numbers, but it's still not getting a connection :/ | 06:10 |
| KRomo | NoWayJose, can i make a suggestion? | 06:10 |
| KRomo | use mint.com forget quicken | 06:10 |
| windbuntu | when i am logging into ubuntu 12.04, i have that choice of ubuntu or ubuntu 2D. does that effect the way the desktop looks or does it go deeper? | 06:11 |

| kisuke | ok, any one have any clue why a bluetooth connection spontaneously disconnects while in use, and ubuntu refuses to reconnect? dmesg has nothing and syslog is rather uninformative, | 06:12 |
| cvr | Andrew1, have u restarted the network since? sudo service networking restart? | 06:12 |
| cvr | Andrew1, provide your $ route and $ ifconfig output | 06:13 |
| Andrew1 | yes, i ran sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 06:14 |
| Andrew1 | okay let me put that together, one sec | 06:15 |
| NoWayJose | KRomo, I've used Quicken for 8 years. | 06:15 |
| mikeS11 | NoWayJose: KRomo: It possible to run Quicken under wine or in a VM? | 06:16 |
| mikeS11 | NoWayJose: KRomo: Perhaps one of those is a solution. | 06:16 |
| === mint is now known as sevenhills | ||
| Gushings | NoWayJose It looks like Wine runs Quicken okay, and there may be some native programs you can try importing into. | 06:18 |
| Gushings | What is quicken even doing nowdays. | 06:20 |
| Gushings | Didn't they drop support for Mac as well? | 06:20 |

| Gushings | Yes mother. | 06:21 |

| bazhang | !notunity | kish | 07:04 |
| ubottu | kish: 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 | 07:04 |

| drecute | ikonia: i keep getting permission denied on mkdir command | 09:20 |

| pi3ch | truemove: yeah I've started using that since yesterday. it is awesome :) | 09:22 |
| ikonia | myhero: you can't "dd" to make a CD | 09:22 |
| quixotedon | myhero: you can use any cd burner application, xfburn is recommended though, having bad experience with brasero | 09:22 |
| firas | when you press alt+ctrl+f2 ubuntu changes to cli mode. A text appeares at the top "Welcome to ubuntu 12.04...". How to change that text????? | 09:22 |

| Jordan_U | myhero: Why did you mention "usb disk creator" then? Was that a mistype or a misunderstanding of what the USB Startup Disk Creator is for? | 09:26 |
| firas | mikeS11: thanx | 09:26 |
| yezariaely | I have several sources in /etc/apt/sources.list* When I select a package using apt-get can I some get the info from which source it is fetched? | 09:28 |
| solving | firas, It is happening for current user only. I think it should not be in Start up . I think , It did not able to end the past session | 09:29 |
| mikeS11 | yezariaely: If you run the following command you can see where the package comes from. 'apt-cache show <package>' | 09:29 |
| oooaaaoooo | hi guys, i have 12.04 lts on a lenovo x220 laptop and the battery isnt charging beyond 90% | 09:30 |
| yezariaely | mikeS11: I tried that already but couldn't find the corresponding entr | 09:30 |
| yezariaely | y | 09:30 |
| oooaaaoooo | what should i do? | 09:30 |
| mikeS11 | yezariaely: Which package? | 09:30 |
| drecute | ikonia: /users - a NFS mount | 09:30 |
| yezariaely | mikeS11: wine1.5 but it should come from an additional source | 09:31 |
| ikonia | drecute: ok, so you need to look at the file system permissions on the nfs server, see what they are being exported as | 09:31 |
| Jordan_U | oooaaaoooo: Batteries lose capacity over time, there isn't really anything you can do about that. | 09:31 |

| mikeS11 | yezariaely: I can tell that wine1.4 comes from universe. Read the 3rd line of the output of the apt-cache command, it should say "Section:". | 09:32 |
| BoomItzAsh | Hey people. | 09:32 |
| yezariaely | mikeS11: ok mine says "otherosfs" whatever this means ... but thx! | 09:33 |
| BoomItzAsh | I was wondering if you guys knew if WINE was essential to run .exe files on the latest update of Ubuntu? | 09:33 |
| mikeS11 | yezariaely: For wine1.4, mine says universe/otherosfs. *shrug* | 09:33 |
| ikonia | BoomItzAsh: you cannot run windows software without wine | 09:34 |
| ikonia | BoomItzAsh: depending on wine as a solution in my experience is unacceptable | 09:34 |
| BoomItzAsh | Thanks man | 09:34 |
| yezariaely | ikonia: you are damn right ... since the last update one of my games does not run anymore :( | 09:34 |
| BoomItzAsh | I think it would be cool if Ubuntu ran everything | 09:35 |
| ikonia | want to use windows software, use windows | 09:35 |
| ikonia | it's pretty much that simple | 09:35 |
| BoomItzAsh | But Minecraft.. on the go | 09:35 |
| myhero | Jordan_U: thats a mayb mistype or misunderstanding....right now i want to create bootable ubuntu 12.04 dvd so i was asking if just doing dd will do the job or i'll have to use any other dvd burner softwares.....and for usb i'll make it in future (usb can be dd'ed ?)...!!! | 09:35 |

| mikeS11 | BoomItzAsh: Minecraft can run on Linux natively. That's the nice thing about java. | 09:35 |
| quixotedon | ikonia: talking about wine, i had a program installed through it, but until now i can't uninstall it.. what a mess! any solution to this? | 09:35 |
| Darael | BoomItzAsh: Steam is coming, Minecraft can run natively. | 09:35 |
| ikonia | quixotedon: how did you install wine ? | 09:35 |
| BoomItzAsh | http://www.winehq.com/ <-- | 09:36 |
| mikeS11 | Darael: I'm stoked about steam. I will be wiping out my windows partition.... | 09:36 |
| MrGizmo757 | i have a question. can i run the Jupiter applet and the CPU freq scaling applet at the same time? or will they cancel each other out? | 09:37 |
| BoomItzAsh | Thanks for that, cause right now the only way I can seem to run it is through WINe | 09:37 |
| tuxgeek | oooaaaoooo: well? | 09:37 |
| quixotedon | ikonia: installed it through software centre as usual, it was like an update from version 10.10 to 11.04 that makes it like inacessible, i forgot the details, anyway but now the program is unuseable as well as not uninstallable :( | 09:37 |
| iram | d | 09:38 |
| ikonia | quixotedon: so if you open software center and try to remove it, what happens ? | 09:38 |
| === iram is now known as ayr | ||
| ayr | hii | 09:38 |
| quixotedon | ikonia: you mean remove wine?? | 09:38 |
| Jordan_U | myhero: dd can't be used to burn any type of CD/DVD. You'll have to use some type of burning software, but Brasero (GUI) and wodim (Terminal based) come by default with Ubuntu. | 09:38 |
| hem | hi.. I do not really get it why I get this result: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1021009/ | 09:38 |
| oooaaaoooo | tuxgeek: well what | 09:38 |
| ikonia | quixotedon: yes | 09:38 |
| quixotedon | ikonia: wine is easily removeable, but the program that had been installed through wine remains there | 09:39 |
| Darael | mikeS11: I shouldn't get your hopes up /too/ high - I doubt /everything/ will get ported along with it. Awesome as that would be. OTOH, Valve could contribute enough to WINE to integrate it for those things that weren't ported... that'd be kinda cool. | 09:39 |
| alien2601 | I am getting a blank screen (with terminal like interface) when trying to run ubuntu 12:04 from live CD (trying to upgrade).. anyone know why this is happening? | 09:39 |

| ikonia | quixotedon: ahhh, I see what you are saying | 09:39 |
| ikonia | quixotedon: sorry, I thought you where saying wine wouldn't remove | 09:39 |
| hem | plz any one look at it. it works just great with kwin/kubuntu | 09:39 |
| quixotedon | ikonia: then i tried installing wine again, and uninstalling the program, and it didn't want to.. pretty bad | 09:39 |
| tuxgeek | quixotedon: have you tried apt-get autoremove? | 09:39 |
| ikonia | quixotedon: the guys in #winehq have some tricks on that, they know exactly which files to remove to remove the client | 09:39 |
| quixotedon | ikonia: yeah, it's the program installed in wine not the wine | 09:39 |
| Jordan_U | hem: "Not blacklisted: no" In other words your card/driver is blacklisted for some reason. | 09:39 |
| Darael | quixotedon: You can remove /all/ the stuff installed in WINE by removing your ~/.wine folder, and ~/.local/share/wineprefixes too (IIRC) in certain cases. Not sure about a single app. | 09:39 |
| mikeS11 | Darael: I know what you're saying, and you're probably correct... but I still looking forward to the bright future! cheers! | 09:40 |

| Darael | mikeS11: Oh, yeah, it's still great that it's coming. | 09:40 |
| quixotedon | tuxgeek: is it for uninstalling programs installed through wine? | 09:40 |
| hem | it did not work in 11.10 but geforce go 7400 should no work with 12.04 | 09:40 |

| myhero | Jordan_U: can u suggest any gud book on ubuntu and linux ins and outs ? | 09:40 |
| quixotedon | ikonia: any solution? :) | 09:40 |

| ubottu | myhero: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 09:41 |

| kdkslll | what keys to press on startup to restore previous version of ubuntu bcasue it gave me option but ignored it and now i dont know how to manually | 09:48 |

| kdkslll | is there a fast way of getting bug patches | 09:49 |
| oooaaaoooo | tuxgeek: tuxgeek i dont know... havent tried it. I do know that before switching to 12.04 i was running lenovo's power management program to maintain a charge lever of 90%. I thnk it might have something to do with that... is there anyway i can vary the charge percentage in gnome/unity | 09:50 |
| mcored | i got foobar2000 working and it is sweet!! http://i.min.us/iXn1rvMdcj4iQ.PNG | 09:50 |
| quixotedon | kdkslll: if you mean updating a faster way, type on terminal "sudo apt-get update" | 09:50 |
| Darael | quixotedon, kdkslll: ...and follow the "sudo apt-get update" with a "sudo apt-get upgrade" to actually /install/ the updates rather than just get the computer aware of their existence. | 09:51 |
| abcd123 | it worked Darael. thank you | 09:51 |
| quixotedon | Darael: yeah, the sudo apt-get upgrade is a companion.. :) | 09:52 |
| quixotedon | Darael: thanks to remind.. :) | 09:52 |
| tuxgeek | oooaaaoooo: none that i can think of but the cli apm tool might help with the right arguments passed to it....but i suggest you try installing the gnome or unity DE's and see if the problem is repeated | 09:53 |
| Darael | abcd123: Happy to help. Usually that error is because the package list update missed the signature files for the various packages, often due to a dodgy internet connection. Fortunately the fix is easy. | 09:53 |

| Darael | DaveMorris1: It won't, until there's a point release. Try "sudo do-release-upgrade -d" to do it anyway. The -d flag works with update-manager too, if you've got a GUI and would prefer that. | 09:55 |
| DaveMorris1 | cheers, I thought the -d flag was to download only | 09:56 |

| DaveMorris1 | damms005: one option is to look at the find command | 10:12 |

| DaveMorris1 | obvs test it | 10:13 |
| damms005 | daveMorrissl: find command does not redirect its output to mv. Error is 'missing destination file' | 10:13 |
| DaveMorris1 | and you'll need to add a recursive flag in there | 10:13 |
| DaveMorris1 | that would imply the folder you want to move to doesn't exist | 10:14 |

| damms005 | onixs: I want something like: find ./directory -name *filename* -exec cp ./destination.........is this possible; or with a script with WHILE loop? | 10:24 |
| Saqks | Hi Quixoton I now have the notification sounds in empathy | 10:24 |
| stephenh | yep | 10:24 |
| damms005 | onixs: how do I link to testdisk forum | 10:25 |
| Saqks | but yet no bootup sounds | 10:25 |
| quixotedon | Saqks: good then | 10:25 |
| Saqks | Does on 12.04 have any sounds like when u empty the trash etc? | 10:25 |
| stephenh | find . [-options] -exec cp {} /path \; | 10:25 |
| quixotedon | Saqks: never experienced that before, i just shift+delete all the time :d | 10:26 |
| DaveMorris1 | damms005: find . -name *.avi | xargs -I '{}' mv '{}' des/. | 10:26 |
| stephenh | DaveMorris1: why run two commands to one job | 10:27 |
| DaveMorris1 | or the way stephenh did ^^ | 10:27 |
| stephenh | :-) | 10:27 |
| Saqks | This is my dad's laptop n he wants want | 10:27 |
| DaveMorris1 | because I was too lazy too look up the syntax to pass the argument into the correct location of -exec | 10:27 |
| DaveMorris1 | but now I'll remember | 10:28 |
| DaveMorris1 | was doing whilst doing 3 other things as well | 10:28 |
| miss_ubuntu | Question: how can i become an opensource programmer for ubuntu ? i have bash ,C++ skills | 10:28 |
| Saqks | Bootup sound still missing ;( | 10:28 |
| Saqks | Can any1 help me to get boot up sounds on 12.04? | 10:29 |
| damms005 | daveMorrissl: so referring to what stephenh said; do I have to run the two commands to that job? | 10:29 |
| quixotedon | Saqks: seems that it's been disabled by default version after update | 10:29 |
| quixotedon | Saqks: a minute, i'm looking for a remedy.. :) | 10:30 |
| Saqks | thanks quixotedon | 10:30 |
| DaveMorris1 | damms005: if you did it my way, I chained two commands together. stephenh's way was using a single command, which will run quicker | 10:30 |
| stephenh | damms005: you use find to find the files you want and -exec to run a command against the result | 10:31 |
| DaveMorris1 | the '|' command is what links commands together within scripts, such that you can pipe the output from one program to another | 10:31 |
| stephenh | you were on the right track, just needed some help with syntax :) | 10:31 |
| quixotedon | Saqks: open terminal, type sudo gedit /etc/xdg/autostart/loginsound.desktop | 10:31 |
| Saqks | ok | 10:31 |
| stephenh | the | (pipe) pipes output from command1 to command2 | 10:31 |
| stephenh | what he said | 10:31 |
| stephenh | ^^ | 10:31 |
| quixotedon | Saqks: it will open a gedit program, copy paste this: [Desktop Entry]Name=GNOME Login SoundType=ApplicationExec=/usr/bin/canberra-gtk-play --id="desktop-login" --description="GNOME Login sound" | 10:32 |
| damms005 | daveMorrissl: stephenh: DO YOU GUYS HAVE A LINK, E-BOOK, PDF FILE OR ANY AID. that can help me know these things(man pages are not easy straight). (you guys have been most helpful thanks) | 10:32 |

| azertyu | hello there | 10:35 |
| Saqks | thanks dude | 10:35 |
| azertyu | is there any tool able to check like nmap for files and directory available on remote host ? | 10:35 |
| damms005 | stephenh: I know the drills. Basics. like writing scripts to automate some tasks(I only have few scirpts that are VERY BASIC. like my "bye" script that does "shutdown -P now") | 10:35 |
| quixotedon | Saqks: you're welcome | 10:35 |
| iceroot | azertyu: ssh with test-statements | 10:36 |
| roshan_ | Hello | 10:36 |
| stephenh | damms005: so shell scripting? | 10:36 |
| iceroot | azertyu: you can write a script for that | 10:36 |
| roshan_ | Can youu tell me what is the difference between lightdm and gmd2 ? | 10:36 |
| damms005 | stephenh: yes | 10:36 |
| azertyu | how ? | 10:37 |
| stephenh | damms005: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html | 10:37 |
| iceroot | roshan_: you mean gdm? | 10:37 |
| iceroot | roshan_: and gdm has version 3 not version 2 | 10:37 |
| roshan_ | Anyoone ? | 10:37 |
| stephenh | it has a nice process and examples/exercises | 10:37 |
| DaveMorris1 | I've created a new upstart script, but when I try and run it I'm told it is an unkown job. Do they get registered on startup? If so how do I register a new one without restarting? | 10:38 |
| roshan_ | iceroot : anyway how are they different, and which one is being uv\sed in Ubuntu 12.04 and 11.10 | 10:38 |
| iceroot | roshan_: ubuntu 12.04 is using lightdm, if i am correct 11.10 is also using nlightdm | 10:38 |
| quixotedon | !lightdm | roshan_ | 10:38 |
| damms005 | stephenh: what of something that you can recommend for a beginner in networking?(general OS networking or linux specific) like if I have apache server on a computer and I want to use the resources on another computer (wireless or wired connection) | 10:38 |
| roshan_ | ok. Thanks for that | 10:39 |
| roshan_ | Is it possible to alter the location of the password field in Ubuntu login screen ? | 10:39 |
| stephenh | that makes no sense | 10:39 |
| stephenh | you have apache and want to use resources on another computer ? | 10:39 |
| iceroot | roshan_: the main difference is that gdm is part of gnome and is written in gtk, lightdm can be used with any toolkit and is lighter then gdm. lightdm is the default in 12.04 for all desktops | 10:40 |
| stephenh | why don't you buy an ubuntu book for beginners and work through it | 10:40 |
| iceroot | !who | stephenh | 10:40 |
| ubottu | stephenh: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 10:40 |
| roshan_ | iceroot: is it possible to edit it in some way ? | 10:40 |
| iceroot | roshan_: like? | 10:40 |
| stephenh | .... | 10:41 |
| roshan_ | My second question of changing the location of the password fiels ... | 10:41 |
| damms005 | stephenh: NO. Scenario: I have a computer running apache(on lampp); I want to access the LOCALHOST of that computer from another. THAT'S IT | 10:41 |
| yellabs-r2 | whats the difference between normal server or an server with maas ? | 10:41 |
| iceroot | roshan_: you have the sourcecode of course you can modify it like you want | 10:41 |
| ayuba | cannot detect my pendrive in ubutu - beginner | 10:41 |
| stephenh | damms005: please don't say things like NO or THAT'S IT when you can't explain what you want properly. | 10:41 |
| ayuba | what i'm suppose to do ? | 10:42 |
| roshan_ | Once edited the sourcecode, do i need to re compile it again ? | 10:42 |
| iceroot | roshan_: yes | 10:42 |
| yellabs-r2 | damm005 find out the ip adres ? | 10:42 |
| stephenh | damms005: as i said, pick up an ubuntu book for beginners. it covers all the basics, including apache. | 10:42 |
| ayuba | cannot detect my pendrive in ubutu - beginner | 10:42 |
| ayuba | what i'm suppose to do ? | 10:42 |
| damms005 | stephenh: I have a computer running apache (on lampp) and I want to access the localhost of that computer from another. How do I do that. Thanks | 10:42 |
| roshan_ | Thank you...I will give it a try and post the results here | 10:42 |
| yellabs-r2 | ifconfig | 10:42 |
| oCean | ayuba: no need to repeat that quickly | 10:43 |
| ayuba | so | 10:43 |
| ayuba | please help me | 10:43 |
| iceroot | ayuba: put in the pendrive, after that type "dmesg" in the terminal and paste the output | 10:43 |
| iceroot | !paste | ayuba | 10:43 |

| stephenh | damms005: you will be viewing content on pc1 from pc2 | 10:43 |
| ayuba | thank you iceroot i try... | 10:44 |
| damms005 | stephenh: Thanks. Sounds like what I need. But is there any need for IP addressing, MAC add, or something? | 10:45 |
| DaveMorris1 | damms005: it sounds as if you may have configured apache to listen on the local interface only (127.0.0.1) you may need to configure it to listen on the IP addess you have given the PC eg 192.168.0.10 | 10:45 |
| DaveMorris1 | damms005: but try and access it first as Stephenh suggests , I'm not sure what the default configuration is when you install | 10:46 |
| damms005 | DaveMorris1: Please, can you be so kind to give a material where I can read about something like such? Thanks. | 10:47 |
| Somelauw | Hi, I did an update of ubuntu from version 11.4 to 11.10, but at the end I got an error and if I run aptitude it suggests about 100 removals. Is there any way to recover from this situation? | 10:48 |
| oCean | damms005: https://help.ubuntu.com/ has all this information | 10:48 |
| damms005 | stephenh: I have lampp installed on PC1. Guess there will be no need to do "apt-get install apache2" on PC1 again. | 10:48 |
| yellabs-r2 | damms005 cant you acces the lampp pc ? you could then use bash to find out the adres | 10:49 |
| yellabs-r2 | with ifconfig | 10:49 |
| yellabs-r2 | when you know the adres you can acces it from the other pc | 10:50 |
| roshan_ | iceroot: which of the following in the given paste should I edit for making changes to the login screen ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/1021068/ | 10:50 |
| damms005 | stephenh: does the pc1 in "http://pc1" means the IP address of PC1? If yes, how do I get it (quote you: on pc1: apt-get install apache2 on pc2: open browser, http://pc1; you will be viewing content on pc1 from pc2) | 10:50 |
| Somelauw | My computer is something half between 11.4 and 11.10. The update was never finished. Is there a way to finish the upgrade or revert to 11.4? | 10:51 |
| yellabs-r2 | we now know his ip adres .. lol | 10:51 |
| Atlantic777 | I want to get newer gcc (because of distcc and other machines in network). Is there a way to do this easily or I should go for chroot and completely new toolchain there? | 10:52 |
| damms005 | yellabs-r2: don't get that pls. | 10:52 |
| yellabs-r2 | Somelauw, i dont know, but you could use the live session to rescue some data, if thats whats needed | 10:52 |
| DasEi | Somelauw: finish upgrade | 10:53 |
| oCean | damms005: you can find/list the ip address of pc1 by running ifconfig -a on pc1. You can access pc1 from pc2 by hostname (if you want) by editing /etc/hosts | 10:53 |
| DasEi | Somelauw: first check your sources.list | 10:53 |
| DasEi | Somelauw: make sure it contains 11.10 only | 10:53 |

| DasEi | Somelauw: need more help on this ? | 10:54 |
| damms005 | yellabs-r2: Is this possible: pc1 is running apache and I type the IP add of pc1 on pc2; can I access the localhost of pc1 on pc2 as such? | 10:54 |
| oCean | damms005: you can find/list the ip address of pc1 by running ifconfig -a on pc1. You can access pc1 from pc2 by hostname (if you want) by editing /etc/hosts | 10:54 |
| Somelauw | Is onereic 11.10? | 10:54 |
| DasEi | !oneiric | 10:54 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot) was the fifteenth release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/11.10/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1110 | 10:54 |

| oCean | damms005: on pc1 open a terminal and type ifconfig -a | 10:56 |
| Somelauw | Then I think it is correct. The updating process crashed somewhere at the end. | 10:56 |
| DasEi | Somelauw: need more help on this ? | 10:56 |

| Somelauw | Can I see a log of the dist-upgrade? | 10:57 |
| oCean | Somelauw: dist-upgrade is not a release upgrade | 10:57 |
| Somelauw | DasEi: Yes, okayy | 10:57 |
| fikri | hello | 10:57 |
| fikri | nice to meet you all | 10:58 |

| Somelauw | DasEi: What would you like me to pastebin? | 10:58 |
| damms005 | oCean: I saw a bunch of information when I did that. (most of em I dont understand though) but info on eth1, lo, ppp0....all contain inet addr | 10:58 |
| DasEi | Somelauw: apt is still working ? / your sources.list | 10:59 |
| Guest59583 | If anyone can help me with a basic cinnamon question let me know, trying to figure something out. | 10:59 |
| damms005 | so how do I deal with /etc/hosts to be able to connect to pc1? | 11:00 |
| oCean | damms005: somewhere in the output is the actual ip address of pc1, I can not tell which since I do not know your setup/configuration. | 11:00 |
| deanzod | not sure really. In the sound settings it looks like my card is recognised and I can see on the input part my mic is picking up sound.I tried downloading the realtek alc883 linux driver and installing but still no sound | 11:00 |
| oCean | damms005: first you need to determine pc1's ip address, then edit /etc/hosts on pc2 | 11:00 |
| oCean | damms005: but again, all this is at http://help.ubuntu.com | 11:00 |
| oCean | damms005: you might want to start reading first | 11:00 |

| DasEi | Somelauw: apt is still working ? like apt-get update ? | 11:02 |
| deanzod | biggi_mat: any ideas what I could try? | 11:04 |
| Somelauw | DasEi: Yes. If you are searching for stuff that dysfunctions. When using anything else than unity like awesome or wmii all letters in a terminal are very big. I tried fixing this in .Xdefaults but it seemed to be ignored. | 11:05 |

| === curiousx is now known as Chuck_Norris | ||
| DasEi | Somelauw: could you answer my questions ? | 11:05 |
| Somelauw | I think it has something to with a configuration file that I kept instead of replaced. I can't remember it's name. | 11:05 |
| Somelauw | DasEi: apt update works. | 11:05 |
| biggi_mat | deanzod, I haven't used sound on linux for too long to be that useful. Some kind of ac3 filters and so on maybe? | 11:05 |
| Somelauw | My sources list, I already gave. | 11:06 |
| Chuck_Norris | meinwhile Chuck_Norris... http://ubuntuone.com/0ylJep5Bj3qYiLKazJPvWM | 11:06 |
| damms005 | oCean: okay i'll do that in earnest. but can you just finish that up? 127.0.0.1 is the localhost as seen from /etc/hosts | 11:06 |
| DasEi | Somelauw: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 11:06 |
| oCean | damms005: yes, but every computer has a 127.0.0.1, so you cannot use that from another pc (2) to communicate with other pc (1) | 11:06 |
| DasEi | Somelauw: else single packets can be reconfigured or purged~reinstalled | 11:07 |
| IdleOne | Chuck_Norris: Please don't paste nonsense and stay on topic | 11:07 |
| oCean | damms005: if you do not have a basic understanding of how to work with Linux, it is really difficult to configure a webserver | 11:07 |
| oCean | damms005: that is why I suggest you should start reading/learning on basics | 11:07 |
| Somelauw | DasEi: Wouldn't that upgrade to 12.4? | 11:07 |
| DasEi | Somelauw: nope | 11:07 |
| deanzod | biggi_mat: You saying it could just be a case of downloading a certain audio codec? | 11:07 |
| Somelauw | Since oneiric is 11.10 | 11:08 |
| damms005 | oCean: Sorry I am not that bad...lol(I am presently running lampp which I use to test my PHP pages locally before deployment ). so does it mean I will have to manually assign IP to pc1? | 11:08 |
| DasEi | Somelauw: not even sudo apt-get distupgrade would, but first you said you are between 2 distros, if the apt threw no error , you are clearly on oneiric | 11:09 |
| damms005 | oCean: I am already reading the guide you suggested. Thanks | 11:09 |
| Somelauw | I am on oneiric, but there might be problems since the upgrade kinda crashed on me somewhere at the end. | 11:09 |
| yellabs-r2 | damms005 you could try turnkey linux, they have preinstalled server versions, burn on iso and install to your on your pc, its a bit easier, but still you need to learn... the basics | 11:09 |
| sergeantcupcake | hey can anyone recommend a program to adjust the internal fan speed on my laptop? | 11:09 |
| yellabs-r2 | http://www.turnkeylinux.org/ | 11:10 |
| biggi_mat | deanzod, yup | 11:10 |
| yellabs-r2 | ah, i see you hare reading the guide | 11:10 |
| yellabs-r2 | better :) | 11:10 |
| Somelauw | Like the problem with big fonts in terminal outside unity. | 11:10 |
| DasEi | Somelauw: single apps : sudo dpkg-reconfigure awesome for instance, or sudo apt-get remove --purge awesome && sudo apt-get install awesome ;; carefull with the remove thingy, better check by --dryy-run, as often apt suggests to remove half the desktop | 11:11 |
| damms005 | yellabs-r2: so how do I become almost like you? | 11:11 |
| Eagleman | vsftpd refuses every connecting i make with the current server.conf | 11:11 |
| Eagleman | http://pastebin.com/c0Pi5bk9 is my server.conf | 11:11 |
| sergeantcupcake | Somelauw: It helps if you ensure that all firmware is up to date before restarting after the update. That worked for me. | 11:11 |
| DasEi | Somelauw: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a , most basic system settings | 11:11 |

| deanzod | biggi_mat: thanks for the suggestion. I installed the restricted extras and vlc but still no sound. Anyone else have any ideas? | 11:18 |
| Dr_Willis | damms005: you just sort of asked how to 'physically' network pcs. but thenyou asked how to setup specific services.. so you do know how to plug in the cables/routers and stuff? | 11:18 |
| cheako | Hello, I have 3.5G of bootchart should I do much of anything other then delete them? | 11:19 |
| Dr_Willis | id deletee them cheako | 11:20 |
| Dr_Willis | ;) wonder how you got so much | 11:20 |
| cheako | Dr_Willis: dual booting. | 11:21 |
| damms005 | Dr_Willis: no doc. I can do with connecting them. Accessing them is my itch | 11:21 |
| Dr_Willis | deanzod: for vlc i had to try the different sound output devices, to get it working. alsa, pulse, defsult, rerstsrt vlc after changeing that setting | 11:21 |
| Dr_Willis | damms005: if they can ping each other they are networked. what service are you wanting to use is the next question | 11:22 |

| Dr_Willis | damms005: localhost is the local box. http://localhost shows the local apache web site here.. | 11:24 |
| DasEi | damms005: few links you got, maybe first check some more easy tasks, like samba, ssh and further basics, it's frustrating to ride a mbicycle, when it's unclear how to cycle anually, no offense though, if you have no second pc, use vm's to learn hands on | 11:24 |

| deanzod | I've tried the sound troubleshooting steps and still have no sound through my speakers :( | 11:34 |

| Ca11um | Worked fine, but I cannot login to the directory on my iPad | 11:34 |
| Ca11um | It says unable to verify account information | 11:35 |
| damms005 | oCean: what is ethernetR I am reading the guide but they didn't clarify ETHERNET | 11:35 |
| intrapata | Ocean: thanks bro,, but icant see my usb devices through that window your reffering with,,, "sorry for my bad english" | 11:36 |
| Dr_Willis | damms005: wikipedia may be worth reading up some of thrse terms on | 11:36 |
| oCean | intrapata: is your account part of the vboxusers group? | 11:37 |
| damms005 | Dr_Willis: So I get it, but how does it apply to eth0? (will not always have to go wiki if i have people like you...) | 11:37 |
| Somelauw | DasEi: I'm gonna go with whatever aptitude suggests and hope that it will fix it. It also detects broken packages and such. | 11:38 |
| intrapata | oCean: i had seen a video on youtube ,whom he config, his acc. so that be part of vbox user via : " sudo gedit /etc/fstab" i do change it also,, and try still no luck bro. | 11:39 |
| intrapata | :c | 11:39 |
| Dr_Willis | damms005: you should go read some networking fundamental guides. | 11:39 |

| damms005 | Dr_Willis: Any suggested guide? | 11:40 |

| oCean | intrapata: open a terminal and type sudo adduser username vboxusers logout and log back in, type id in a terminal, and it should list the newly added group | 11:42 |
| oCean | where username = your user name | 11:42 |
| cheako | User management is simple enough, there isn't a GUI? | 11:43 |
| intrapata | oCean: ill try it bro and will update asap, logoff for now | 11:43 |
| oCean | cheako: I prefer commandline. Always | 11:43 |

| uuser | hi all. i got "no sound" but it seems i did everything necessary. i think that the problem is related to the fact that pavucontrol shows only the "dummy output". this is my alsa-info.sh result: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=2f006aa214333ce24ebd8ad283f99cef95b1fcd5 | 12:01 |

| uuser | deanzod: it doesn't seem so :) | 12:13 |
| deanzod | uuser: do you have exactly the same problem? Does your headphone socket work? | 12:14 |
| uuser | not tried that but i think it is something related with the fact that pavucontrol shows only the "dummy output" and "no cards" | 12:15 |
| uuser | even if "cat /proc/asound/cards" returns some stuff | 12:15 |
| Dr_Willis | i hate sound trouble shooting | 12:18 |

| DasEi | uuser: more a shot in the dark, as I haven't investigated further, recompiling also by modulassistant often brought up missing drivers, if you lauch alsamixergui, is your chip displayed in it's head ? | 12:19 |
| DasEi | recompiling alsa* | 12:20 |
| uuser | i only have alsamixer and yes, the card is shown | 12:20 |
| DasEi | uuser: ah, good sign, and the speaker icons above the faders are green ? both main and pcm ? | 12:20 |
| DasEi | uuser: sudo apt-get install vlc pastebinit && pastebinit /var/log/syslog | 12:21 |
| xiaolong | hello | 12:22 |
| DasEi | uuser: then launch vlc from terminal to see additional output | 12:22 |
| uuser | i sais i have only alsamixer, so... no spearks icon... but it seems the controls (both main and pcm) reacts fine | 12:22 |
| deanzod | don't know if this makes any difference but when my headphones are plugged in, on alsamixer...front 1 is the volume control for them and 'headphone' is stuck on 00 with no ability to turn up | 12:23 |
| DasEi | uuser: sudo apt-getinstall alsamixergui -y && alsamixergui | 12:24 |
| uuser | DasEi: they should be similar... | 12:24 |
| DasEi | uuser: there shall be these icons for speakers in top of the faders, muted by default often (green or greyed) | 12:25 |
| uuser | i'm installing vlc | 12:25 |
| uuser | DasEi: vlc is playing an mp3 but no i hear no sound. lanched from terminal it doen't output any special info | 12:26 |
| uuser | i got it! | 12:26 |

| server_ | on it but i need to delete shoutcast first | 13:08 |
| IdleOne | server_: it might have an uninstall script, you should check the shoutcast FAQ page | 13:08 |

| Lunar_Lander_ | hi there, have a strange issue: I set my clock in Ubuntu to show the day and the time with seconds and since a minute or so the clock turns black for a second and then is normal again | 13:10 |

| Lunar_Lander_ | sergeantcupcake, thanks, but the time is OK, it looks like a graphics issue there | 13:11 |
| IdleOne | server_: you need to replace path/to/shoutcast with the actual path | 13:11 |
| Lunar_Lander_ | and now the issue has vanished as well | 13:11 |
| Lunar_Lander_ | strange | 13:11 |
| server_ | i did that | 13:11 |
| server_ | i did cd shoutcast | 13:12 |
| server_ | then i did rm -rf | 13:12 |
| sergeantcupcake | lunar_lander: ahhh........ sorry. Im afraid I cant help you there :/ | 13:12 |
| DasEi | ha1dfo: sth like -A ufw-before-input -m policy --dir in --pol ipsec -p udp --dport <portnumber> -j ACCEPT | 13:12 |
| ha1dfo | DasEi, thanks, i'll try that | 13:12 |
| bullium | server_, make sure your in the right directory when you issue that command. Could hose the whole system if your in the wrong directory and your root | 13:12 |
| Lunar_Lander_ | sergeantcupcake, no problem, maybe it is something that a restart could resolve or so | 13:13 |
| server_ | i am in the right directory but nothing happend | 13:13 |
| server_ | i want to close 127.0.0.1:8000 that 8000 need to close so i can get icecast on it | 13:14 |
| sergeantcupcake | lunar_lander: :) I hope so! | 13:14 |
| Lunar_Lander_ | yeah | 13:14 |
| Lunar_Lander_ | forums don't have info on that issue either | 13:14 |
| Lunar_Lander_ | so a minor issue I hope | 13:14 |
| bullium | server_, rm -rf doesn't show you the files as they are deleted you would need rm -rfv to show you them as they are deleted. You'll need to do an ls in that directory to verify the files were actually deleted | 13:14 |

| intore | hi, am using ubuntu 11.10 and i have 2 problems. the first one: i use pam_mount to mount user's home directory locally on the client and it runs but it doesn't umount it: "device is busy" and i don't understand why. could you help me please? | 13:16 |
| XiRoN | That flood bot is annoying | 13:17 |
| bullium | server_, ps -a | grep shout should show the running services process id. Once you get that run a kill -9 PID to kill the process to free up the ports. Where PID is the process ID listed from the ps command | 13:17 |
| === railsraider_ is now known as railsraider | ||

| IdleOne | bullium: kill PID should be more than enough | 13:18 |

| server_ | where can i see what sercises i got | 13:19 |
| jaco | using ps? | 13:19 |
| bullium | IdleOne, -9 will make sure it's gone if it's hung...He's obviously having issues with this so the -9 would make sure the processes where killed | 13:19 |
| server_ | that are only 2 pids | 13:19 |
| IdleOne | bullium: true | 13:19 |
| jaco | ps -eo cmd,user,pid | 13:20 |
| server_ | the 8000 port is still online but there are only 2 pids | 13:20 |
| IdleOne | server_: correct you have the pid for shoutcast and the pid for the grep command you just ran | 13:20 |
| bullium | server_, you need to kill both of those pids...killing one may cause the other to die as well | 13:20 |
| bullium | IdleOne, that could be the case too :) | 13:21 |
| server_ | i did delete the shoutcast directory what you said | 13:21 |
| IdleOne | otherwise there would be three if more then one shoutcast was running | 13:21 |
| bullium | server_, they files are only part of the equation you also have to kill the already running programs in memory | 13:21 |
| bullium | server_, hints using ps and the kill command | 13:21 |
| server_ | dommand is then?? | 13:22 |
| server_ | there are 2 pids in ps that is bash and ps | 13:22 |

| royal | hi urself? | 13:42 |
| alankila | marc_12314: the raid0 size will be the size of partitions - some metadata overhead, probably like 4 kB or maybe 8 kB | 13:43 |

| majestouch | thanks will give it a read and try it out | 13:54 |
| damms005 | Drajwer: because what I want to do actually is to 'mv' the files that match. so i guess I will "find . -exec mv {} /destination \;" right? So "\;" becomes an ethic for -exec(even when nothing like that is in find's man page) | 13:54 |

| IdleOne | !java | 14:05 |
| ubottu | To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 14:05 |

| Wawaiftyid | I have buy a Linksys WRT54GL router. During 2 days I have tried to install it, searching in Internet, reading the manuals... Is it compatible with Ubuntu or what? | 14:12 |
| bullium | Wawaiftyid, since your working on the actual network layer, your OS of choice doesn't really matter, but to answer your question directly YES you will be running Ubuntu with that router in place | 14:13 |
| Wawaiftyid | bullium, does I need any type of special configuration to use that router on Ubuntu? | 14:14 |
| mrdeb | Wawaiftyid: no | 14:14 |
| mrdeb | Wawaiftyid: it is all done on using web browser | 14:15 |
| Wawaiftyid | The problem is that I can't get an IP. | 14:15 |
| mrdeb | reset | 14:15 |
| mrdeb | also read manuals | 14:15 |
| Wawaiftyid | I have reset 2 times. Also, I have reset to factory default firmware (I was in dd-wrt) | 14:16 |
| bullium | Wawaiftyid, you do not need a specific configuration. Brand new out of the box that unit should issue IP addresses without any settings changed | 14:16 |
| Wawaiftyid | I have read all the manuals too. | 14:16 |
| mrdeb | does it work in windows | 14:16 |
| Wawaiftyid | Nop, same problem there (and I also used the CD) | 14:16 |
| mrdeb | ok | 14:16 |
| mrdeb | well i would continue to search for answer and maybe call them | 14:16 |
| mrdeb | it is specific to cause | 14:16 |
| Wawaiftyid | ok, thanks for your help. | 14:17 |
| bullium | Wawaiftyid, sounds like you may have a bad unit...I've used a lot of Linksys routers in my day and they all have issued IP's right out of the box. If you've factory reset a few times and still can't get it to work, time to grab your receipt and get it replaced | 14:17 |
| Wawaiftyid | My receipt is in another city. I would prefer to try more things first. Thanks anyway. | 14:18 |
| mrdeb | yes | 14:18 |
| Wawaiftyid | I live in Spain, maybe my ISP is too old for this technology. | 14:19 |
| bullium | Wawaiftyid, sounds like you've tried everything that you can other than call Linksys for support and or replace the unit | 14:19 |
| bullium | Wawaiftyid, good luck | 14:19 |
| Wawaiftyid | bullium, thanks. The only thing that I haven't do is call for help. If I don't get an answer here I will go to Liksys forums (if they have), Ubuntu forums and/or DD-WRT forums. | 14:20 |

| DasEi | RumRum: if itt's rather fresh install (I guess so, with home below 3 g , re-install | 15:34 |
| RumRum | yea maybe i'll just re-format | 15:34 |
| RumRum | since I got the laptop yesterday, so no loss from my side except an hour of confing | 15:35 |

| DasEi | paulus68: gnome-device-manager ? | 15:42 |
| Darael | rahmat: If you absolutely need IDM, you could install it via WINE (I don't believe there's a Linux version), but you're probably better off using one of the ones I suggested. | 15:42 |
| mobileconnection | rahmat: Darael even FDM is good | 15:43 |
| DasEi | skiphuffman: it seem a quite extensive tut, so maybe wait a bit, or wait for it moving into kernel | 15:43 |
| mobileconnection | rahmat: Darael even FDM is good it has a linux version | 15:43 |
| DasEi | seems* | 15:43 |
| Darael | mobileconnection: I wouldn't know. I'm just working off an axi-cache search. Axel's what I use myself. Thanks for the suggestion, though. | 15:43 |
| paulus68 | DasEi: well I think that you got my question wrong, I am refering to www.howtoforge.com/howto_linux_systemimager which doesn't seem to be available in 12.04 | 15:43 |
| mobileconnection | Darael: :) | 15:43 |
| mobileconnection | where do the games I install go? directory | 15:45 |
| DasEi | paulus68: ah, no.. you want an image of your harddrive or certain partitions ? dd can do that | 15:46 |
| skiphuffman | DasEi, actually it wasn't extensive. Just wordy. The instructions boil down to "Download the driver from the chipset manufacturer's site, extract, make install" that's it. | 15:46 |
| Darael | mobileconnection: Depends. If they're native, probably in /usr/bin/<gamename>. Possibly /opt/<gamename>. If via WINE, usuall ~/.wine/dosdevices/drive_c/<Windows-path> but playonlinux may use ~/.local/share/wineprefixes/<something>. | 15:46 |
| mobileconnection | thanks Darael :) | 15:46 |
| paulus68 | DasEi: complete image of my harddrive simular like norton ghost under windows | 15:47 |

| Darael | mobileconnection: It should show up in your Applications lens. If you'd installed it from the USC it would show in the Unity launcher, as well, but as it is: Open the Dash and search for the game name. | 15:52 |
| DasEi | paulus68: apart from that, clonezilla andmondo-rescue are in linux-world, but as I went with dd, can't guide you there | 15:52 |

| Darael | madpup: I don't know how the drobo does network filesystems, but you can also just put SMB shares or NFS mounts in your fstab. | 15:54 |
| Darael | !fstab | madpup | 15:54 |
| ubottu | madpup: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 15:54 |
| mobileconnection | Darael: thanks a lot | 15:54 |
| madpup | cheers guys, its a usb model not the cat5 one | 15:55 |
| Darael | mobileconnection: No probs. Yeah, things are a bit different because the repository system lets us share libraries, whereas on Windows things need to be mostly self-contained, which makes them, well, self-contained, but larger. | 15:55 |
| Darael | madpup: In which case, plug it in, mount the partitions, issue "mount" with no commands to see what's mounted and how, and add the appropriate lines to your fstab as guided by the help-page linked above. | 15:55 |

| Ca11um | And I definately got the correct 12.04 32-bit Desktop | 16:20 |

| wingie | NoNaMeNo: i run the script with: curl http://url_to_script.sh | sh | 16:21 |
| wingie | NoNaMeNo: perhaps thats the problem? | 16:21 |

| Ca11um | sergeantcupcake: I don't get why it says 'Operating System not found' though | 16:21 |
| sergeantcupcake | Callum: hold on a sec and i'll see what file i used. my machine is 32 bit as well | 16:21 |
| Ca11um | sergeantcupcake: Why would it be looking for any operating system | 16:21 |

| ayuba | cannot detect my pendrive in ubutu - beginner | 16:22 |
| ayuba | what i'm suppose to do ? | 16:22 |
| NoNaMeNo | BlackZatara: ubuntu should have default drivers for that | 16:22 |
| NoNaMeNo | ayuba: is it empty? | 16:22 |
| sergeantcupcake | Callum: Without an operating system, the computer just sit's idle because there is no software to give it instructions | 16:22 |
| _SEQ | hi | 16:22 |
| wingie | NoNaMeNo: yeah that works .. thanks again | 16:22 |
| Geothom380 | hello everyone | 16:22 |
| Ca11um | sergeantcupcake: Is a boot disc considered an operating system? | 16:22 |
| sergeantcupcake | _seq: hi! :) :) | 16:22 |
| Ca11um | sergeantcupcake: If I'm booting the disc drive, why would it need any OS? | 16:23 |
| sergeantcupcake | Callum: No. A boot disc contains an operating system that your bios will attempt to run, but is not and operating system itself. | 16:23 |
| === Jip_ is now known as Jip | ||
| sergeantcupcake | Callum: If there is no disc in the drive, the computer has nothing to give it instructions, so it simply remains idle until it recieves some | 16:24 |
| NoNaMeNo | ayuba: is it empty? | 16:24 |
| ayuba | yes | 16:24 |
| ayuba | what i'm suppose to do ? | 16:24 |
| ayuba | any setting?? | 16:25 |
| NoNaMeNo | ayuba: open the disk management tool and format it | 16:26 |
| rahduke | so i took the plunge and upgraded to 12.04 (from 11.10) and all seems good except that Unity 3d doesnt work, when I log in using a normal "Ubuntu" session I see no unity bar or top bar, just an empty desktop. Ubuntu 2d works fine.... can anyone point me in the right direction? | 16:26 |
| Ca11um | sergeantcupcake: I've just tried booting the server disc, that too gives the same error - it must be a problem with the BIOS settings? | 16:26 |
| sergeantcupcake | Callum: You need to download the file from the Ubuntu website called "ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso | 16:26 |
| sergeantcupcake | Callum: beyond that im not sure what the cause of the problem is | 16:27 |

| sirriffsalot | Hi! Would the fact that my 11.04 ubuntu install has a 2.6.38-15-generic kernel make it impossible for me to run a lowlatency kernel that runs at a 3.xxxxx... kernel version? | 16:30 |
| Ca11um | sergeantcupcake: It seems when running Windows 7 (the current OS), it can't read any discs that well | 16:30 |
| Ca11um | Will I need to buy some form of USB disc reader? | 16:30 |
| ragnok | hello, whats the best way to install libjpeg, cairo, and libgif ? can i just app-get those? or should i -dev? | 16:31 |

| sirriffsalot | txomon|home: ? | 16:31 |
| OccupyDemonoid | Hello, I am trying to do virtual hosts with apache2 and for the life of me I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. I followed this tutorial http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/vhosts/examples.html#purename and I am using Server 11.04. | 16:32 |
| txomon|home | the fact that the 11.04 is an obsolete version is the reason you dont already have a 3.x kernel | 16:32 |
| txomon|home | OccupyDemonoid, go #apache | 16:32 |
| crackerjackz | how do i list all groups and users? | 16:33 |
| OccupyDemonoid | I thought 11.04 was still supported? | 16:33 |
| OccupyDemonoid | I will go to #apache though, thank you. | 16:33 |
| crackerjackz | OccupyDemonoid: i can help you with that | 16:33 |
| DasEi | !eol | 16:33 |
| ubottu | End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 16:33 |
| sergeantcupcake | Is there a way to slim down my 12.04 system? It's slowing my older machine down. | 16:34 |
| OccupyDemonoid | The end of life for 11.04 is in October. | 16:34 |
| DasEi | sergeantcupcake: see : | 16:34 |
| DasEi | !lubuntu | 16:34 |
| ubottu | lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. | 16:34 |
| DasEi | !minimal | 16:34 |
| sirriffsalot | txomon|home: would you mind helping me make sense...? | 16:34 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 16:34 |
| txomon|home | sirriffsalot, you have an outdated ubuntu | 16:34 |
| smw | sergeantcupcake, xfce perhaps/ | 16:35 |
| sirriffsalot | txomon|home: 11.04 isn't outdated? | 16:35 |
| txomon|home | 12.04 is current distro | 16:35 |
| OccupyDemonoid | crackerjackz, what did I do wrong? | 16:35 |
| DasEi | sergeantcupcake: first install a lighter surface (xubu,icewm,lubuntu...) then drop unwanted packages | 16:35 |
| bal_ | sergeantcupcake: try with genomshell | 16:35 |
| sirriffsalot | txomon|home: it's the latest distro, not the only one?? | 16:35 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, 11.04 EOLs in October | 16:35 |
| crackerjackz | OccupyDemonoid: do you plan on using mysql and php just out of curiosity? | 16:35 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, but it has gnome2! | 16:35 |
| txomon|home | sirriffsalot, the current distro is 12.04 | 16:35 |
| sirriffsalot | smw: not october yet lol | 16:35 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, I know | 16:35 |
| sirriffsalot | txomon|home: so what?!:P | 16:35 |
| txomon|home | smw, isn't it april? | 16:35 |
| OccupyDemonoid | crackerjackz, I am planning on using just html right now then intergrating mysql later with php. | 16:36 |
| smw | txomon|home, eh? | 16:36 |
| txomon|home | true | 16:36 |
| crackerjackz | OccupyDemonoid: look at this guide, http://library.linode.com/lamp-guides/ubuntu-11.10-oneiric | 16:36 |
| txomon|home | sry | 16:36 |
| crackerjackz | i've used that same guide before | 16:37 |
| smw | txomon|home, 11.04 dies in october. I looked it up because I wanted to know how long I could keep gnome 2 :-P | 16:37 |
| DasEi | sergeantcupcake: dpkg -L > myPackages.txt creates a file, if you want the 'hard way to decide | 16:37 |
| txomon|home | sirriffsalot, have you done apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -y ? | 16:37 |
| txomon|home | :D smw you can install gnome-shell, it comes with gnome 2 | 16:37 |
| DasEi | smw: can still have gnome besides unity (classic) | 16:37 |
| txomon|home | (I think) | 16:37 |
| sirriffsalot | txomon|home: I don't want to, haha. 11.04 is fine, above and beyond that even more crap has been added to it and I'd like to stick to 11.04 for a while longer | 16:37 |
| crackerjackz | OccupyDemonoid: that guide shows the configuring of two domain names on the same server... | 16:37 |
| txomon|home | sirriffsalot, that wont upgrade your distro, just update it to the last updates for that version | 16:38 |
| smw | DasEi, gnome2 does not come with ubuntu since 11.04 | 16:38 |
| OccupyDemonoid | crackerjackz, Thank you, I will check it out. | 16:38 |
| crackerjackz | OccupyDemonoid: you should use xhtml instead of html | 16:38 |
| rahduke | so i took the plunge and upgraded to 12.04 (from 11.10) and all seems good except that Unity 3d doesnt work, when I log in using a normal "Ubuntu" session I see no unity bar or top bar, just an empty desktop. Ubuntu 2d works fine.... can anyone point me in the right direction? | 16:38 |
| crackerjackz | xhtml and css | 16:38 |
| sirriffsalot | txomon|home: oh. what's the -y for? | 16:38 |
| txomon|home | to upgrade your distro would be do-release-upgrade | 16:38 |
| DasEi | sirriffsalot: scroll up what I just told sm w , can decide your own | 16:38 |
| smw | DasEi, unity was the default, but gnome classic could still be used | 16:38 |
| txomon|home | sirriffsalot, for yes | 16:38 |
| sirriffsalot | Automatic yes?:D | 16:38 |
| txomon|home | sirriffsalot, yes, I do it automatically | 16:38 |
| sirriffsalot | txomon|home: I'd like to check what goes on, hehe, hang on | 16:39 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, I agree, 11.04 is fine for now | 16:39 |
| txomon|home | you can not put the -y and decide your self | 16:39 |
| Ca11um | What does 'test' in Terminal do? | 16:39 |
| crackerjackz | OccupyDemonoid: if you get confused with that guide let me know and ill help you figure out what you're doing wrong | 16:39 |
| === lupinedk is now known as Lupinedk | ||
| DasEi | Ca11um: man test tells you, file checking | 16:40 |
| === Lupinedk is now known as lupinedk | ||
| sirriffsalot | So is there a 3.xxxx kernel for 11.04 around? | 16:40 |
| smw | Ca11um, test can also be used with the [] syntax | 16:40 |
| DasEi | sirriffsalot: you can install it | 16:40 |
| sirriffsalot | DasEi: so yes?:) | 16:40 |
| DasEi | yes | 16:40 |
| smw | Ca11um, if [ $x -eq 1 ] uses test | 16:40 |
| DasEi | sirriffsalot: if there is neither a repo or deb, see | 16:41 |
| DasEi | !compile | 16:41 |
| ubottu | Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first). Also read !checkinstall | 16:41 |
| sirriffsalot | DasEi: *shivers* Alright! | 16:41 |
| DasEi | sirriffsalot: if you want to extend that, lookup kerrnel.org and the app kernelcheck | 16:41 |
| DasEi | !info kernelcheck | 16:41 |
| ubottu | Package kernelcheck does not exist in precise | 16:41 |
| crackerjackz | how do i list all users and groups? | 16:41 |
| txomon|home | xD | 16:42 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, why do you need a latest kernel? | 16:42 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, did you check backports? | 16:42 |
| lora | irrecord --driver=irman --device=/dev/ttyS0 MyRemote <--- i need to run this to be able to configure lirc with xbmc | 16:42 |
| sirriffsalot | smw: well, if I install a 3.xxxx lowlatency kernel it won't work... so I figured it must have had something to do with the fact that all the configurations on my system are still for a 2.xxxx kernel? | 16:42 |
| lora | if i run lsusb i can see the ir device | 16:42 |
| sirriffsalot | smw: come again?:) | 16:42 |
| lora | but how do i know the location | 16:43 |
| lora | or the driver thats being used | 16:43 |
| lora | how can i change the command above to work for the device i've connected and for the driver that is being used | 16:43 |
| DasEi | sirriffsalot: http://tinyurl.com/74troe5 | 16:43 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, why do you need a 3.0 kernel? | 16:44 |
| DasEi | lora: re-plug device, run : dmesg | tail | 16:44 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, if you really need it, it makes more sense to update | 16:44 |
| gopi1410 | is there a way to change directory permissions when I am not the owner of a directory? | 16:44 |
| DasEi | lora: that should tell where to look in /dev | 16:44 |
| sirriffsalot | smw: I just told you why I want a 3.0 kernel | 16:44 |
| sirriffsalot | smw: I did an update as toxomon|home suggested, 0 changes were made | 16:45 |
| DasEi | gopi1410: depends on what the owner has set | 16:45 |
| sirriffsalot | DasEi: thanks, will check it out soon! | 16:45 |
| ayuba | cannot detect my pendrive in ubutu - beginner | 16:45 |
| lora | hmm | 16:45 |
| ayuba | cannot detect my pendrive in ubutu - beginner | 16:45 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, I don't see why... | 16:45 |
| ayuba | what i'm suppose to do ? | 16:45 |
| gopi1410 | @DasEi if I dont have the rights, then it means there is no way? | 16:45 |
| samd | gopi1410: or if you have administrative priviledges (with sudo) you can change any permissions | 16:45 |
| lora | so i remove the device and ls /dev and check what is being added or removed? | 16:45 |
| sirriffsalot | smw: smw: well, if I install a 3.xxxx lowlatency kernel it won't work... so I figured it must have had something to do with the fact that all the configurations on my system are still for a 2.xxxx kernel? | 16:45 |
| gopi1410 | yeah but the point is I dont have admin privileges | 16:46 |
| gopi1410 | so basically I cant chown a folder | 16:46 |
| samd | gopi1410: you can use a live CD, and use sudo | 16:46 |
| DasEi | gopi1410: right , if the owner doesn't allow your group or user writing/execution, no way | 16:46 |
| lora | DasEi : what about the driver that is being used? | 16:46 |
| smw | !work > sirriffsalot | 16:46 |
| ubottu | sirriffsalot, please see my private message | 16:46 |
| NictraSavios | Hello, how would I, from bash, get the title of the current terminal window? | 16:46 |
| gopi1410 | ok | 16:46 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, why do you need a "low latency kernel"? | 16:47 |
| NictraSavios | Actually, let me rephrase that, how would I get the name of the program that is the terminal. Like "Guake" or "Gnome-Terminal" or "Konsole" | 16:47 |
| sirriffsalot | smw: low latency audio work lol:) | 16:47 |
| xclusive585 | join #setiathome | 16:47 |
| sirriffsalot | Trying to remember the error message when I disabled the quiet splash thing in grub | 16:47 |
| DasEi | lora: lookup in lsmod | 16:47 |
| NictraSavios | Not just "xterm" or "linux" | 16:47 |
| sirriffsalot | Could not load module or something, does that make it more clear?:D | 16:47 |
| DasEi | ayuba: does lsusb see it ? | 16:47 |
| lora | TY | 16:48 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, sounds like it was missing a module that you did not have compiled for the new kernel | 16:48 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, I highly suggest upgrading if you need the new kernel | 16:48 |
| aaas | NictraSavios I'm not sure you can, Konsole runs the shell but i don't think the shell is aware of the terminal... why do you need it? | 16:48 |
| ikonia | echo $TERM | 16:49 |
| ikonia | some terminals will set an environment variable, not all | 16:49 |
| NictraSavios | aaas, I'd like to detect when the shell is "guake" or "yutake" and, if so, skip executing a function | 16:49 |
| aaas | NictraSavios are you programming in bash or a scripping language? | 16:50 |
| NictraSavios | aaas, bash. It's for a login script (bashrc) | 16:50 |
| aaas | NictraSavios and you run this script in a gui? | 16:50 |
| ghabit | Hello. Can anyone explain what means different updates: proposed and backports, and which of them I must use? | 16:50 |
| NictraSavios | aaas, It gets automatically run every time a terminal is started | 16:51 |
| sergeantcupcake | Is there a way to make my system run on less resources? I have an older machine, but want to keep my existing setup without having to install Kubuntu or anything else. | 16:51 |
| aaas | NictraSavios anytime ANY terminal is started.... you said it's .bashrc? | 16:51 |
| NictraSavios | aaas, Correct | 16:51 |
| sirriffsalot | smw: to 11.10? | 16:51 |
| smw | ghabit, proposed = bad | 16:51 |
| aaas | NictraSavios and why do you need to detect the type again? | 16:51 |
| smw | ghabit, those are in testing and should not be used unless you plan to submit bug reports | 16:52 |
| smw | ghabit, and are willing to deal with consequences | 16:52 |
| ghabit | smw, thx! ^) | 16:52 |
| DasEi | ghabit: it's about how far packets have been debugged about stability and or tested out other issues, proposed are pre-released ones, backports back-ported ones of the next release | 16:52 |
| DasEi | !backports | 16:52 |
| ubottu | If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 16:52 |
| NictraSavios | aaas, It will eventually be made part of /etc/bash.bashrc , but I'm testing it on a single-user basis. And to detect if the current terminal is "guake" or "yutake", if so, skip executing a function | 16:52 |
| kdsmain | is there a keyboard shortcut for moving between windows of the same program, i.e. between terminal windows? | 16:52 |
| smw | ghabit, backports are stable and in later versions of ubuntu | 16:52 |
| aaas | NictraSavios which function? | 16:52 |
| DasEi | ayuba: does lsusb see it ? | 16:53 |
| NictraSavios | aaas, one defined in my bashrc. | 16:53 |
| devhell | hi, what is the deal with empathy's "share my desktop" option, for some reason it doesn't seem to work. Both users are on 12.04 and both use jabber (xmpp). Is there something that must be activated before that option is available? | 16:53 |
| aaas | NictraSavios but what does it do | 16:53 |
| smw | ghabit, they decided to make it available to users of older versions of ubuntu | 16:53 |
| jvcleave | so since xorg.conf is deprecated apparently what is the modern approach to making this change? (point 3) http://scottlinux.com/2011/06/05/install-linux-mint-11-on-macbook-pro-82/ | 16:53 |
| ayuba | cannot detect my pendrive in ubutu - beginner | 16:53 |
| smw | ghabit, they are a little less tested... but I trust them | 16:53 |
| ayuba | what i'm suppose to do ? | 16:53 |
| ghabit | smw, DasEi thank a lot! | 16:53 |
| ayuba | please help me | 16:53 |
| NictraSavios | aaas, Why is that important? If you must know, it prints out a list of all user logged in, the last few lines of /var/log/auth and a few other security related functions. | 16:53 |
| DasEi | jvcleave: haven't called your link, but you can stil use xorg.conf as before | 16:53 |
| DasEi | !mint | 16:53 |
| ubottu | Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 16:53 |
| DasEi | still* | 16:54 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, if you are going to update, might as well install 12.04 | 16:54 |
| aaas | NictraSavios it's important because there might be a better way to do what you want. Why do you need to skip it in these particular terms | 16:54 |
| DasEi | ayuba: open a terminal ... | 16:54 |
| ayuba | ok | 16:54 |
| sirriffsalot | smw: meh... gonna consider it I guess | 16:54 |
| DasEi | ayuba: enter : lsusb | 16:54 |
| ayuba | ok | 16:54 |
| DasEi | ayuba: does lsusb see it ? | 16:54 |
| ayuba | yes | 16:55 |
| sirriffsalot | How do I force a file to become read/write? | 16:55 |
| NictraSavios | aaas, because they are for quick commands, and it seems to take up too much room. It is simply not needed on them. | 16:55 |
| DasEi | ayuba: kinda sevice ? usb-stick ? | 16:55 |
| smw | sirriffsalot, is the file owned by you? | 16:55 |
| sirriffsalot | If I try to do it the gui-way in root nautilus it won't work | 16:55 |
| kdsmain | anyone know a keyboard shortcut for moving between windows in the same program? | 16:55 |
| sirriffsalot | smw: Uhm, hang on | 16:55 |
| devhell | kdsmain: ctrl-tab maybe? | 16:55 |
| sirriffsalot | smw: oh here's the thing | 16:56 |
| kdsmain | i mean i can alt-tab and then arrow back to the terminal icon | 16:56 |
| kdsmain | but that's clumsy | 16:56 |
| ghabit | Is gnome3 supported? | 16:56 |
| DasEi | ayuba: kinda device ? usb-stick ? or simply paste the one line telling from lsusb in here | 16:56 |
| Fuchs | kdsmain: only with kwin, I am afraid. What window manager are you using? | 16:56 |
| sirriffsalot | smw: I want to try a childhood game of mine, abe, which I burned onto an iso image, but I can't change the permissions to "allow executing file as read-only" since it is burned onto a cd obviously.. | 16:56 |
| sirriffsalot | smw: hang on:P | 16:56 |
| aaas | NictraSavios sorry i can't be of more help, im not sure if the shell is terminal aware.. you can ask in #bash, the other option is to go into the config files of these terms and see if you can pass a flag to bash from the terminal exec you'll have to customize only the ones you want to skip...or just bite the bullet and keep it if it's not a show-stopper | 16:57 |
| kdsmain | Fuchs: GNOME3 | 16:57 |
| ayuba | sorry usb-stick | 16:57 |
| xangua | kdsmain: alt+| ; keep the super/windows button pressed and you'll see unity shorcuts | 16:57 |
| DasEi | ayuba: sudo fdisk -l | 16:57 |
| smw | ghabit, I use gnome3 | 16:57 |
| DasEi | ayuba: which device is it ? /dev/sdXX ... | 16:57 |
| sergeantcupcake | ayuba: I just read a section of your thread. Whats the problem? | 16:57 |
| Nk26 | Hi running ubuntu server 12.04 trying to get samba running with authentication. When I use valid users = username it refuses to accept the credentials I have setuup. the only way to get my share running is if I remove valid users and set public to yes, any ideas? | 16:57 |
| NictraSavios | aaas, I know from pstree that gnome-terminal can be traced to whats running bash. Not sure how to get a cleaner output of that, and what I may do is instead of a "catch all, but exluded these" do a "excluded all, but on these" approach | 16:57 |
| smw | ghabit, technically you are using gnome 3 when you use unity. But I use gnome-shell too | 16:58 |
| NictraSavios | aaas, so instead of excluding guake, include Gnome-Term. Depends on what I can dig up. | 16:58 |
| Chicowolf | hi | 16:58 |
| Fuchs | kdsmain: then I am not aware of any. But it would be scriptable with xwininfo and a bit of emwh magic (wmctl) | 16:58 |
| kdsmain | ah | 16:58 |
| Chicowolf | guys | 16:58 |
| ayuba | ok | 16:58 |

| smw | Chicowolf, sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi | 16:59 |
| kdsmain | xangua: alt + | didn't do anything for me, nor did any combo of alt + | + windows button, is it all three at once? | 16:59 |
| llutz | NictraSavios: look at "xwininfo" | 16:59 |
| DasEi | ayuba: sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/sdb1 | 16:59 |
| NictraSavios | aaas, It dosen't work, its output isnt exactly script ready. | 16:59 |
| NictraSavios | llutz, man xwininfo ? | 16:59 |
| aaas | NictraSavios you just need to parse it | 17:00 |
| DasEi | ayuba: sudo chown -R $USER /media/sdb1 | 17:00 |
| bugs_bugger | hi there | 17:00 |
| aaas | NictraSavios but does it show all terms | 17:00 |

| j91321 | Hi I have a bit of a problem I destroyed boot partition on my ubuntu 12.04 (lvm+encryption) I have already reinstalled grub and have grub command line after boot but I don't know what to do next I tried booting using hiren's boot cd but didn't get me any further | 17:00 |
| aaas | NictraSavios you can do it from a simple line in perl... but that might be an uphill battle if you dont know it | 17:00 |
| sergeantcupcake | bugs_bugger: howdy | 17:00 |
| aaas | NictraSavios I might be able to give you one, but not sure it will always work | 17:00 |
| DasEi | j91321: how did you destroy it ? | 17:01 |
| NictraSavios | aaas, show me the line. I can probably learn something from it, but llutz 's idea looks promising. | 17:01 |
| Chicowolf | ok it work :D | 17:01 |
| samd | NictraSavios: have you tried to make startup scripts for each terminal? for example, i know that gnome-terminal has a --command argument, so you could change gnome-terminal to run your script once you start it ... i dont know if other therminals have this same option | 17:01 |
| Chicowolf | thx guys | 17:01 |
| aaas | NictraSavios what was his idea, i didnt see it | 17:01 |
| smw | Chicowolf, sweet :-) | 17:01 |
| bugs_bugger | i have a little bash script question: i have a folder with selected photos on my mediaplayer and want to negative-sync it with the folder of origin. | 17:01 |
| Chicowolf | :) | 17:01 |
| j91321 | DasEi well formated it by accident | 17:01 |
| r00k19 | awesome!! | 17:02 |
| Church | bugs: sounds like job for rsync | 17:02 |
| smw | bugs_bugger, negative sync? | 17:02 |

| bugs_bugger | yeah, delete every file from the original folder that is not in the first folder on my portable | 17:02 |

| smw | !bot > kdsmain | 17:05 |
| ubottu | kdsmain, please see my private message | 17:05 |
| samd | bugs_bugger: yes, it can be done with rsync, that is often used to mirror folders and keep backups | 17:05 |
| j91321 | DasEi I tried testdisk already didn't get much back | 17:05 |
| r00k19 | i guess i need to find people who are interested in operating easy peasy | 17:05 |
| bugs_bugger | Chruch: i would have said by filename since i didnt change the images themselves, just deleted the ones i didnt want | 17:06 |
| r00k19 | easy peasy is awesome. its making this $250 netbook run flawless | 17:06 |
| DasEi | j91321: just formated or partition deleted ? | 17:06 |
| r00k19 | and i partitioned the harddrive and left the original windows on | 17:06 |
| DasEi | r00k19: a particular question ? | 17:06 |
| lora_ | sorry i still cant find the device in /dev | 17:07 |
| bugs_bugger | samd: i use it to backup my photos. but afaik it only syncs existing and adds new but doesnt delete | 17:07 |
| j91321 | DasEi deleted | 17:07 |
| r00k19 | yes thanks for asking | 17:07 |
| r00k19 | but i am still unsure how to operate this chat app properly | 17:07 |
| r00k19 | should i talk in this room or PM people or just join another room for easypeasy? | 17:07 |
| lora_ | DasEi : if i unplug the ir device and recheck ls /dev the files are still the same | 17:07 |
| lora_ | nothing added nothing removed | 17:07 |
| NictraSavios | aaas, guake has a ps of "gnome-shell" while gnome-term is "gnome-terminal", I can get the pid from that | 17:07 |
| bugs_bugger | Church: sorry, typo'd your username | 17:07 |
| samd | bugs_bugger: use the --delete option | 17:07 |
| lora_ | but i didnt find the driver name | 17:07 |
| ayuba | no dude.. | 17:07 |
| lora_ | but not the location in /dev | 17:07 |
| bugs_bugger | samd: ok, will give it a try. thanks | 17:08 |
| DasEi | j91321: ok, then you will have to chroot from live similar to reinstalling grub plus /dev/pts and /usr and reinstall least one image | 17:08 |
| aaas | NictraSavios i bet you can, but the problem is the pid doesn't say which one you're running in | 17:08 |
| samd | bugs_bugger: no problem | 17:08 |
| lora_ | DasEi: help! | 17:08 |
| aaas | NictraSavios if you run multiple terms you wouldnt know which is which | 17:08 |
| r00k19 | right now the main problem is that i seem to be missing drivers for certain things like printing and some skype video | 17:08 |
| lora_ | how can i find it in /dev? | 17:08 |

| klj613 | when i turn caps lock off on my keyboard, and hit the next letter. its still capitals (delay, e.g. HEllo). Fair enough if it was just this keyboard (Razer Lycosa) but it also happens on a cheap £3ish keyboard aswell (also USB). Any idea what might be causing it? | 17:40 |

| bugs_bugger | r00k19: the update manager is for updates. it does not install software, it updates the existing software. since easy peasy seems to be based on ubuntu, installing drivers is not an easy-peasy specific problem | 17:54 |

| r00k19 | sorry im a noob | 17:59 |
| bugs_bugger | r00k19: that is not the problem. | 17:59 |
| Osakasa | samd, yes 'Files exists' | 17:59 |

| r00k19 | whats the problem? | 17:59 |
| Guest86237 | xubunto | 17:59 |
| samd | Osakasa: yeah, it should be like that, because the link is already made (we made sure of that with the output of ls) | 18:00 |
| bugs_bugger | r00k: now, i dont know what drivers you need, but if its only the printer you should go for cups or something. in gerneral, it helps opening Synaptic and searching for the hardware model you own | 18:00 |

| sergeantcupcake | Adios! | 18:19 |
| DasEi | Anastasius: left shift or ctrl when grub comes up, choose os (or set another default entry) | 18:19 |
| Anastasius | No, you're getting this wrong. I actually want Ubuntu to load. | 18:19 |
| dr_willis | you said its loading ubuntu | 18:19 |
| Anastasius | I'm asking how that happens. | 18:20 |
| DasEi | Anastasius: installed win after ubu in a dualboot ? | 18:20 |
| dr_willis | because its the default grub entry Anastasius | 18:20 |
| Anastasius | dr_willis: What does that mean? | 18:20 |
| samd | Anastasius: you want ubuntu to load instead of windows by default? that's the default behavior when you install ubuntu. Have you installed anything else lately? | 18:20 |
| * dr_willis is not clear on the problem | 18:20 | |
| * DasEi nods | 18:20 | |
| dr_willis | !grub | Anastasius | 18:20 |
| ubottu | Anastasius: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 - See !grub1 for releases before Karmic (9.10) | 18:20 |
| Anastasius | samd: No, Ubuntu is loading instead of Windows. | 18:21 |
| samd | Anastasius: and what behavior do you want | 18:21 |
| dr_willis | grub is loading ubuntu. because thats its job | 18:21 |
| dr_willis | and set that way | 18:21 |
| DasEi | apt-get install windows, later nice channel | 18:21 |
| Anastasius | samd: I want Ubuntu to load first and give me choice if i want to load Windows instead. | 18:22 |
| * dr_willis thinks now.. we get to the real question | 18:22 | |
| XiRoN | hi | 18:22 |
| tuxgeek | !unity | 18:22 |
| ubottu | Unity is the default UI since Ubuntu 11.04. Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. For a GNOME 2-like experience, see !notunity | 18:22 |
| XiRoN | I have a problem :( | 18:23 |
| dr_willis | grub menu is hidden by default, and is not whowing a windows entry | 18:23 |

| samd | Anastasius: once you boot ubuntu, you have to reboot to load window, unless you install windows in a virtual machine | 18:23 |
| XiRoN | I was to know where I can view all the harddrives connected to my ubuntu system | 18:23 |
| XiRoN | And what directory they are in. | 18:23 |
| dr_willis | Anastasius: grub should show a menu itrm for windows | 18:23 |
| samd | XiRoN: type "mount" | 18:23 |
| dr_willis | XiRoN: use sudo blkid | 18:23 |
| Anastasius | samd: That doesn't make much sense. I want it to load Ubuntu first, not Windows. | 18:23 |
| dr_willis | Anastasius: hold shift while booting. select what os you want from the grub menu | 18:24 |
| tuxgeek | XiRoN: df -h will help too | 18:24 |
| Anastasius | dr_willis: Tried that, doesn't work. | 18:24 |
| dr_willis | Anastasius: so tell us what it does do.... | 18:25 |
| dr_willis | its taken 10 min to get down to the actual issue.. | 18:25 |
| r00k19 | can anyone familiar with Ubuntu tell me if its possible to create a system restore point? | 18:25 |
| Anastasius | When I start the computer, it gives me a grub list where I can choose whether or not to boot into Ubuntu or windows. Then I leave it alone and it boots into Ubuntu. | 18:26 |
| bugs_bugger | DasEi: sag mal, wie lässt du nachrichten aussehen wie status? zb. Das Ei nods? | 18:26 |
| dr_willis | Anastasius: so.. you select windows and it dosent work? you want ti wait forever? ' | 18:26 |
| Anastasius | No, I just don't touch anything and it boots into Ubuntu. | 18:27 |
| tuxgeek | dr_willis: +1 | 18:27 |
| dr_willis | Anastasius: so? ........ | 18:27 |
| Anastasius | That's the problem. | 18:27 |
| numberto | Is it possible to monitor who is downloading the most. I am on ubuntu 12.04 and have a wireless router. We are 6 people connected to the router and I believe somebody is downloading a huge torrent thus we have slow connection. (Is there a way to find out) | 18:27 |
| dr_willis | Anastasius: why? what do you want it to do | 18:27 |
| tuxgeek | Anastasius: you don't have a problem... | 18:28 |
| Anastasius | dr_willis: I want it to boot into Ubuntu without any sort of intervention from me. | 18:28 |
| dr_willis | Anastasius: its doing that... | 18:28 |
| Anastasius | No it's not. I have to turn the computer on first. | 18:28 |
| * dr_willis sends Anastasius the bill.. | 18:28 | |

| kisuke | how would i force software center to install a .deb thats a a previous version of a currently installed package? | 18:29 |

| devhell | okay, I guess I'll ask my empathy question again.. is there anything that must be done in order to activate "share my desktop"? both users are running 12.04, and both are on jabber/xmpp. | 18:31 |
| tuxgeek | for wasting our time! | 18:31 |
| bugs_bugger | tuxgeek: say, im wondering how to make a message appear like a status. whats the irc command for it? | 18:31 |
| dr_willis | devhell: local lan or over the internet? | 18:31 |
| kisuke | dr_willis: not really applicable, i need to install the jaunty bluez, and im on precise. i have the jaunty bluez .deb, the question is just how to install it. | 18:31 |
| devhell | dr_willis: over internet. | 18:31 |

| dr_willis | devhell: if its using the vino remote desktop feature you may need to setup a ssh tunnle | 18:33 |
| DasEi | dr_willis: you can install older debs and put them on hold, though not to be recommended | 18:33 |
| Anastasius | tuxgeek: I disagree. How am I supposed to boot into Ubuntu if Ubuntu loads automatically? | 18:33 |
| dr_willis | the fact the kernel is very different/version may also be a big brick wall | 18:34 |
| bugs_bugger | llutz: thx | 18:34 |
| da | bbb | 18:34 |
| devhell | dr_willis: It works fine without setting up an ssh tunnel manually. Fun thing is, that if one machine runs 11.10 and the other 12.04, the request from 12.04 to 11.10 works, and a connection can be made. If both are 12.04 it doesn't work. | 18:34 |
| dr_willis | sounds like a bug to report | 18:36 |
| devhell | dr_willis: I've been thinking the same thing. I guess I'll have to file one :( | 18:36 |
| devhell | dr_willis: just wanted to check, not that I'm being stupid. | 18:36 |
| dr_willis | how about 11.10 to 12.04 ;) | 18:36 |
| bugs_bugger | Anastasius: did you install 2 different versions of ubuntu? | 18:36 |
| triedandtruwe | hi im loading precise off of a usb onto a computer, which is running vista, in order to access some files on the main hard drive, because I can't boot into vista, and thats the only OS, so anyway, off of the usb drive, it boots but gets stuck with the ubuntu logo and 5 dots under it | 18:37 |

| Anastasius | bugs_bugger: No, just 12.04. | 18:38 |
| Hilikus | but the entries appear to be from logger, not "myscript" | 18:38 |

| samd | silverghost: you dont actually have to type commands, theres almost a gui for everything, its just easier for us to bring support by telling people to copy and paste commands, instad of telling them "goto system-> preferences " search for ......... etc | 18:41 |
| CuriousUbuntuUse | devhell: This laptop's HDD is broken so I am using a Live CD | 18:41 |
| triedandtruwe | bugs_bugger: here is what showed up when i hit esc: firmware files b43/ucode5.fw and b43-open/ucode5.fw not found; after that it says you must go to wireless.kernel.org..... etc and download the correct firmware for this driver ver. Do that? | 18:41 |
| dr_willis | its really a pain walking theough the gui giving support. | 18:41 |
| devhell | CuriousUbuntuUse: how much RAM does your laptop have? | 18:42 |
| CuriousUbuntuUse | devhell: Only 1 GB | 18:42 |

| devhell | CuriousUbuntuUse: should be enough to plug in a USB, download ubuntu iso and use usbcreator to write the image to your usb stick. | 18:42 |
| devhell | kullix: clean way: re-install | 18:43 |
| CuriousUbuntuUse | Write the image to my USB? | 18:43 |
| CuriousUbuntuUse | Won't that just setup an installer? | 18:43 |
| devhell | CuriousUbuntuUse: yes | 18:43 |
| dr_willis | 64mb ram = everything will be slow... | 18:43 |
| samd | kullix: i recommend lubuntu over xubuntu for slow pc's if you can | 18:43 |
| devhell | CuriousUbuntuUse: no, it will set up the same live environment that you kow from the CD.. just on the USB. | 18:44 |
| dr_willis | or a typo | 18:44 |
| CuriousUbuntuUse | I want it so I can boot via USB, and it loads up my Ubuntu environment from last use | 18:44 |
| bugs_bugger | triedandtruwe: sorry, thats beyond my knowledge. at this point all i could do is google the error message. maybe this is a known issue or someone else here knows what to do. | 18:44 |
| devhell | dr_willis: oh, 64MB? well then... ;) | 18:44 |
| dr_willis | CuriousUbuntuUse: live +persistant save = what you asked for | 18:44 |
| triedandtruwe | bugs_bugger: ok, thanks a lot for your help! | 18:44 |
| CuriousUbuntuUse | Oh I missed the usbcreator part | 18:44 |
| devhell | CuriousUbuntuUse: that is possible with a USB stick, and the usbcreator program also has an option to set that. | 18:45 |
| CuriousUbuntuUse | I thought you meant write the fresh ISO to a USB | 18:45 |
| dr_willis | CuriousUbuntuUse: or do a full normal install to the flash drive. if its big enough | 18:45 |
| kullix | eh. that took like 2 hours to install | 18:45 |
| CuriousUbuntuUse | USB stick is 2 GB | 18:45 |
| CuriousUbuntuUse | How big is Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop? | 18:45 |
| devhell | CuriousUbuntuUse: yes, that's what I mean, just download an iso image, and use usbcreator. | 18:45 |
| devhell | CuriousUbuntuUse: that is enough. | 18:45 |
| samd | CuriousUbuntuUse: better stick with the live usb + persisten alternative with 2 gig | 18:46 |

| bugs_bugger | Anastasius: you're quite alone with that opinion | 19:04 |
| dr_willis | CuriousUbuntuUse: you cant do a full install to a gb flash. and i think the usb creator tool needs the iso file. | 19:05 |
| dr_willis | 2 gb flash too smll for full install | 19:05 |
| devhell | CuriousUbuntuUse: you'll need the iso so that usb disk creator can write a working image to the usb disk. the installer will only install to your hard drive (which you don't have) I believe. | 19:05 |
| kullix | is there a way to access other desktops via console? | 19:05 |
| bugs_bugger | Anastasius: unless you make yourself clear enough, its pretty much senseless. | 19:05 |
| kullix | if any come with ubuntu | 19:05 |
| dr_willis | kullix: you mean ssh into them/ | 19:05 |
| Anastasius | bugs_bugger: Let me clarify. I want the computer to boot into Ubuntu by default. Not Windows. | 19:06 |
| kullix | yeeesh | 19:06 |
| dr_willis | kullix: use ssh..... ;) | 19:06 |
| bugs_bugger | Anastasius: beforehand you said it already boots automatically into ubuntu. so? | 19:06 |
| devhell | CuriousUbuntuUse: if you use usb disk creator to write the downloaded image to the usb disk, the installation will use approximately 700MB on the usb disk, which leaves around 1.3GB left for permanent storage. | 19:06 |
| begin | Anastasius: but it does that already, right? | 19:06 |
| Darael | kullix: SSH will allow you to get a shell on another machine. VNC, the Ubuntu defaults being vino (server) and vinagre (client), will get a graphical desktop on a remote computer. Virtual desktops (aka workspaces; the things you get to with ctl+alt+arrows) can't be controlled from the console, or at least not easily. Other desktop environments can be installed and chosen between at login time. I think that covers all the ... | 19:07 |
| Anastasius | begin: Yes, but I have to turn the computer on first. | 19:07 |

| r00k19 | noob is generally accepted but ok i wont use noob | 19:18 |

| r00k19 | so far no one is in easypeasy... | 19:20 |

| devhell | ForgeAus: generally installing older packages is not recommended. | 19:23 |
| hedkandi | s | 19:23 |
| wawowe3 | ForgeAus: it would probably be okay for python | 19:23 |
| devhell | ForgeAus: why not try the virtualbox solution? It sure will save you some headaches. | 19:24 |
| wawowe3 | ForgeAus: but you'd have to get any 2.6 extras yourself | 19:24 |
| kastali | salam all | 19:24 |
| hedkandi | wxd | 19:25 |
| ForgeAus | its just libpython2.6.so.1.0 that it needs | 19:26 |

| VinceN | Hey folks, Need some help with what I suspect is a permissions issue with Ubuntu Server, or rather myself with Ubuntu Server | 19:30 |
| wawowe3 | VinceN: explain the issue | 19:30 |
| r00k19 | question - how can you check what your current machine spec are, including OS version?? | 19:31 |
| VinceN | I have a directory located at /var/www/ that dosen't seem to have permissions to be displayed on the web by apache but has the same permissions as other files that work fine, I can't figure out what i've done wrong | 19:31 |
| devhell | ForgeAus: did you check this? http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Extensions:2.6/Py/Scripts/Import-Export/Make_Human | 19:31 |
| devhell | r00k19: system monitor | 19:31 |
| wawowe3 | VinceN: chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www | 19:32 |
| VinceN | wawowe3: Ok but then my FTP user can't change it right? What do I need to do to ensure that anything I drop into this directory via FTP is able to be displayed on the server? | 19:34 |
| I_am_me | does anybody know how to remove the ellipses after the "shut down" label in ubuntu 11.10, i mean which file to change to remove these? | 19:35 |
| wawowe3 | VinceN: chown -R www-data:ftpgroup /var/www | 19:35 |
| wawowe3 | VinceN: chmod -R 755 /var/www | 19:36 |
| wawowe3 | VinceN: scratch that last cmd | 19:36 |
| reisio | I_am_me: the ellipses? | 19:36 |
| I_am_me | wawowe3: yes | 19:36 |
| wawowe3 | VinceN: just the first one | 19:36 |
| I_am_me | sorry, reisio: yes | 19:36 |
| ForgeAus | devhell: that script is for importing/exporting i haven't got makehuman running yet | 19:37 |
| retis | hi, i am want to install matlab in my ubuntu 10.04, can anyone please tell me how can i get matlab for ubuntu and install it? | 19:37 |
| reisio | I_am_me: like the 'blah blah information asking something to shutdown...' messages? | 19:37 |
| devhell | ForgeAus: it says to put it in the plugins directory? | 19:38 |
| I_am_me | no, i in the menu; when u want to shut down, u click on "Suspend", "Log out", "Shut down..." | 19:38 |
| devhell | ForgeAus: you could also pull a nightly and see if that is bumped to 2.7. Maybe ask in the blender forums/irc channels? | 19:38 |
| ForgeAus | how do I fix broken cache? | 19:38 |
| I_am_me | these ellipses | 19:38 |
| wawowe3 | VinceN: if you need to reset the directory and file permissions: find -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \; | 19:39 |
| wawowe3 | VinceN: and: find -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \; | 19:39 |
| ForgeAus | devhell: its saying I have brokencache | 19:39 |
| I_am_me | you got me reisio ? | 19:39 |
| devhell | ForgeAus: told you that you'll get a headach. | 19:39 |
| reisio | I_am_me: ah | 19:39 |
| VinceN | wawowe3 it says invalid group 'www-data:ftpgroup' | 19:39 |
| reisio | I_am_me: in Unity? | 19:39 |
| I_am_me | yes | 19:40 |
| devhell | ForgeAus: what exactly is telling you that? | 19:40 |
| ForgeAus | ubuntu software center | 19:40 |
| I_am_me | repeat: Ubuntu 11.10, Unity shell | 19:40 |
| reisio | I_am_me: if it's not hardcoded, 'sudo grep -Hir 'shut down' /' will probably find it | 19:40 |
| ForgeAus | devhell: the app trying to install it calls itself ubuntu software center | 19:40 |
| reisio | I_am_me: you might check gconf first, though | 19:40 |
| reisio | I_am_me: or ask #gnome (or #gnome on irc.gnome.org) about it | 19:40 |
| wawowe3 | VinceN: ftpgroup was an example | 19:40 |
| I_am_me | ya i tried grep-ing but to no avail | 19:41 |
| I_am_me | will try the second one | 19:41 |
| wawowe3 | VinceN: you can also have vsftpd auto chown if you're using it | 19:41 |
| reisio | might be hardcoded | 19:41 |
| manitou | !off topic | 19:41 |
| devhell | ForgeAus: what did you do before the USC threw that error? | 19:41 |
| wawowe3 | VinceN: replace ftpgroup with whatever group your ftp user is in | 19:41 |
| VinceN | wawowe3: I assume i'm an idiot and your meaning ftpgroup is a specific group on my own server but I don't know what that group is. What I did was CHOWN the /var/www directory to my user then put an symbolic link to /var/www in my home directory | 19:41 |
| ForgeAus | devhell: tried to install python2.6-minimal.deb | 19:42 |
| devhell | ForgeAus: try uninstalling it. use the command line for that. | 19:42 |
| gbear14275 | what command is it that makes you watch the end of a file like tail... but updates print to the screen | 19:42 |
| wawowe3 | VinceN: why the link? | 19:42 |
| reisio | gbear14275: -f | 19:42 |
| gbear14275 | reisio, thank you | 19:42 |
| llutz | gbear14275: tail -f or tailf | 19:42 |
| VinceN | wawowe3: Because the FTP login dumps me into my home directory | 19:43 |
| gbear14275 | thank you llutz | 19:43 |
| wawowe3 | VinceN: in that case: chown -R ftpuser:www-data /var/www | 19:43 |
| ForgeAus | hmm apt-get doesn't have an uninstall option? | 19:43 |
| reisio | ForgeAus: it does, but it might do more than you want | 19:43 |
| ForgeAus | oh wait its remove | 19:43 |
| reisio | ForgeAus: there's dpkg -r for surgical removals | 19:43 |
| ForgeAus | oh makehuman is already installed but it has unmet dependancies thats what it meant by brokencache probably | 19:44 |
| ForgeAus | odd that it doesn't let me fix that for it! | 19:44 |
| VinceN | ok done | 19:44 |
| ForgeAus | without uninstalling everything in order to do it! | 19:44 |
| devhell | ForgeAus: reisio is right, try using dpkg -r | 19:44 |

| devhell | causticcasualty: how long did it stay at 39% with unetbootin? | 20:20 |

| causticcasualty | it stays there forever, | 20:21 |
| guntbert | ChrisWere: yes, but I have no answer, sorry | 20:21 |

| damms005 | root@ubuntu:/home/emmanuel# grep -r -m2 all ./Desktop/....is this not suppose to print 2 matches and exit grep? (because that output is 2 files) | 20:22 |
| causticcasualty | using startup disk it eventually has some error after about 5 mins, | 20:23 |
| causticcasualty | and I waited probably 10 - 12 minutes, | 20:23 |

| causticcasualty | with unetbootin** | 20:23 |
| guntbert | cknox: try to ask in #ubuntu-server, maybe there you will have better success | 20:23 |
| ChrisWere | well thanks for trying to help anyway. I don't really know what to do from here. Ubuntu really need paid support for personal use eh? lol | 20:23 |
| devhell | causticcasualty: did you format the usb disk beforehand? | 20:23 |
| mongy | causticcasualty, I'd just dd it | 20:23 |
| causticcasualty | yes formatted to Fat | 20:23 |

| Jon-- | damms005, I like to use find with grep for this. find . -type f -exec grep -H 'all' {} \; -H prints file name. You're welcome to use that if you like | 20:26 |
| causticcasualty | devhell: yea seems that way, I read of the same problem someone had, hanging at 39% .. he had a 2GB usb , backtrack r2 is 2.5GB i think that was obvious but my USB is 8GB so it should work, | 20:27 |
| Yago | reisio: no | 20:27 |
| Yago | idk how to explain | 20:27 |

| reisio | damms005: did you try -m 2 ? | 20:28 |
| stephenh | Jon--: maybe it's not in /etc/init.d similar to init.d scripts not used for services controlled by systemd on fedora (i don't have access to a recent ubuntu atm) | 20:28 |
| mongy | devhell, does on mine, and he might as well try... | 20:28 |

| Yago | sergeantcupcake: Cause I think I have one on my Windows, but I don't want one here and I dont know how careful I should be here | 20:29 |
| stephenh | lemme reread your question | 20:29 |
| mongy | causticcasualty, you write the iso to usb with dd. how I make alternate installer and other distros boot via usb. | 20:29 |
| Yago | sergeantcupcake: here --> Ubuntu | 20:29 |

| r00k19 | this is fun. im just sitting here reading ya'lls conversatoin | 20:31 |
| damms005 | reisio: yes | 20:31 |
| mongy | causticcasualty, just be careful to get the usb drive location right... you can kill your install if you choose sda.. | 20:31 |
| sergeantcupcake | nino: Hi! can I help you? | 20:31 |
| reisio | damms005: ah maybe llutz has your issue | 20:31 |
| r00k19 | they need an alternate installer | 20:31 |
| sergeantcupcake | r00k19: lol | 20:31 |
| nino | yes | 20:31 |
| r00k19 | that would be so cool if i could learn code | 20:31 |

| Jon-- | Yago, I'm adding context as I learn more. | 20:31 |
| causticcasualty | yuss yuuss , thanks i'll keep my eye on that | 20:31 |

| llutz | damms005: so if you run it recursive, it will scan more than 2 files (if that is your issue) | 20:31 |
| sergeantcupcake | Yago: I dont believe so | 20:31 |
| Galvatron | ChrisWere: Pastebin (http://pastebin.org) the output of "lsusb" | 20:31 |

| sergeantcupcake | nino: whats up? | 20:32 |
| damms005 | llutz: so what stops grep after 2 mathces (like quit and exit after grep finds two matches) | 20:32 |
| sergeantcupcake | yago: are you trying to get one or avoid one? | 20:32 |
| reisio | damms005: | head -2 | 20:32 |
| oconnore | reisio: ok, well I thought it would be more helpful if I could fill in the "what package" field of the bug report. | 20:32 |
| nino | you see somebody called CHING | 20:32 |
| nino | ? | 20:32 |
| stephenh | Jon--: have you looked in /etc/rc.* for your script? | 20:32 |
| reisio | nino: ? | 20:32 |
| stephenh | if you remove it from the run levels it's in, it won't load on boot | 20:32 |
| Yago | sergeantcupcake: avoid, if they exist. If they don't then I know how safe I should be when downloading Java programs | 20:33 |
| Jon-- | stephenh, Yes, it's not there. | 20:33 |
| sergeantcupcake | nino: nope. sorry man | 20:33 |
| reisio | oconnore: it would be, but no point looking for it if you don't know where to look | 20:33 |
| reisio | oconnore: the people who wrangle the bugs will know already | 20:33 |
| Jon-- | stephenh, There is /etc/init.d/nessusd which is being called from somewhere, it's not in /etc/rc* or in /etc/xdg/autostart. | 20:33 |
| nino | dont worry than you | 20:33 |
| oconnore | reisio: ok | 20:33 |
| oconnore | thanks | 20:33 |
| ChrisWere | Galvatron: I'm not sure how to use pastebni | 20:33 |
| reisio | oconnore: if you describe it will, I mean | 20:33 |

| stephenh | not by what though | 20:36 |
| sergeantcupcake | nino: is that a name or what? | 20:36 |
| Jon-- | stephenh, The strangest thing is find /etc/ looking for nessus comes up empty too, besides a port in /etc/services and the /etc/init.d/nessusd file | 20:36 |
| stephenh | Jon--: check the binary in /etc/init.d/nesssusd | 20:37 |

| ubottu | Silivrenion pokeswap: 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) | 20:53 |

| Silivrenion | pokeswap, mysql is commandline, so sudo is fine | 20:56 |

| ubottu | XiRoN: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 20:56 |

| iHarp | Anyone know of a program | outside of virtualbox | that will allow me to make a startup disk for OSX? I have the ISO on my hard drive but my mac drive is formatted. | 21:02 |
| mongy | causticcasualty, to test your stick try dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sr1 bs=1M it will write to your whole stick and hopefully all of it. | 21:02 |
| L3top | llutz: any idea how I would determine the modules to blacklist? | 21:02 |

| griffjon | failsafeX doesn't seem to have a working keyboard/mouse | 21:03 |

| pokeswap | how do i give myslef root permissions? | 21:03 |

| jrib | pokeswap: what files do you want to edit? | 21:04 |
| jam__ | and give ur password | 21:04 |
| zykotick9 | jam__: pokeswap "sudo su" is a BAD idea | 21:04 |

| jrib | !sudo | pokeswap, jam__ | 21:04 |
| ubottu | pokeswap, jam__: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 21:04 |

| sgringwe | is anyone on here a lead developer for ubuntu? | 21:07 |
| Confucius | thanks! | 21:08 |
| Crooper | ntwrk_keith, a command line editor is like nano | 21:08 |
| Galvatron | Confucius: As for console tools, Aptitude ich much simplier to use than all this atp-get, apt-cache, apt-* stuff. | 21:08 |
| pokeswap | do nano/gedit edit in the default text editer? | 21:08 |
| Crooper | zykotick9, ok | 21:08 |
| ntwrk_keith | and vim isnt? hmmm looks like command line to me but ok | 21:08 |
| Galvatron | Which is just overcomplicated | 21:08 |
| griffjon | ah, recovery mode's dpkg is at least finishing the update process | 21:08 |
| jam__ | ubottu: the link u gave mentions i should not use "sudo su", but it does not mention y, can u explain? | 21:08 |
| ubottu | jam__: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 21:08 |
| Crooper | pokeswap, nano is a different editor than gedit | 21:08 |
| jam__ | fine ubottu! | 21:09 |
| causticcasualty | mongy: perhaps, I've certainly stored GB's of other on it as recent as yesterday like movies and programs, | 21:09 |
| causticcasualty | only when trying this is doesn't work, I guess I should buy another usb | 21:09 |
| ChrisWere | has everyone who's been nicely helping me with my problem disappeared? | 21:09 |
| jam__ | does anybody know y is "sudo su" not recommended? | 21:09 |
| pokeswap | what comes with it? | 21:09 |
| Crooper | both | 21:09 |
| griffjon | jam__ ubotto is not a person, it's only a helper bot | 21:09 |
| zykotick9 | jam__: "sudo su" relies on the actual root account - that ubuntu goes to a lot of effort to avoid... | 21:09 |
| mongy | causticcasualty, well try the dd zero command as a test | 21:09 |
| Galvatron | jam__: But I can: "sudo su" permanently switches tou to the root, so you don't have to use "sudo" each time | 21:09 |
| mongy | causticcasualty, if that fails, oh oh.. | 21:09 |
| Crooper | gedit is gui and nano is command line | 21:09 |
| zykotick9 | jam__: if you "need" (and you probably don't) a root terminal use "sudo -i" | 21:10 |
| griffjon | jam__: editing root files is a quick recipe for disaster unless you know what you're doing | 21:10 |
| Galvatron | jam__: Just remember to do "su <your_username>" after you're done | 21:10 |
| jam__ | but what's the difference zykotick9 ? | 21:10 |
| pokeswap | is there any way to just click on the file in var/www and edit it that way or do i have to use terminal? | 21:10 |
| ChrisWere | Galvatron: have you had any luck? | 21:11 |
| zykotick9 | jam__: enviornments (and not breaking your account). but do what you want. break what you wish. it's all up to you. | 21:11 |
| Galvatron | ChrisWere: As I've mentioned, the system can see the mic | 21:11 |
| Crooper | pokeswap, you can always use 'sudo gedit /var/www/<what-ever-file-you-want> | 21:11 |
| ChrisWere | Galvatron: yes i can see that | 21:11 |
| XiRoN | Can anyone help me out? | 21:12 |

| IdleOne | !ask | XiRoN | 21:12 |

I have a quick question, because this hasn't been an issue for me before; I've installed Ubuntu 12.04 alongside a preinstalled partition of Windows XP but GRUB doesn't load by default at boot. rather, the computer only boots into XP unless I choose boot device in BIOS. How can I get GRUB to load at every boot? | 21:36 |
| === arizona_bay is now known as Guest93768 | ||
| wN | VikingIV: you have to install grub to the device that is being booted by default | 21:37 |
| jam__ | so u can boot somehow into Ubuntu, VikingIV ? | 21:37 |
| VikingIV | so, install it to the WIndows XP partition, wN? | 21:37 |

| VikingIV | Yes. By selecting any other boot deviice other than the hard drive, GRUB show up | 21:37 |

| ubottu | user__: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 22:35 |
| user__ | ubottu, what are all of the CD images available? | 22:36 |
| ubottu | I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 22:36 |
| escott | Nowayz, why not use pulseaudio? | 22:36 |
| escott | user__, minimal, alternate, server, desktop | 22:36 |
| user__ | ubottu, also do you choose from the website or when installing the OS onto your PC? | 22:37 |
| ubottu | user__: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 22:37 |
| escott | user__, and then the flavors kubuntu lubuntu etc | 22:37 |
| user__ | yes | 22:37 |
| Nowayz | will pulseaudio work? | 22:37 |
| Nowayz | I don't have a sound device | 22:37 |
| commandocoding | How can i make the desktop icons invisible from commandline in Ubuntu 12.4 (Gnome Classic) | 22:37 |
| Nowayz | It's a server install of ubuntu, but it has gnome desktop envrionment installed with VNC | 22:37 |
| escott | commandocoding, some gsettings command would do it | 22:38 |
| Nowayz | Basically the computer has no real sound processor, but I need to pipe all of the sound into a sound input interface so I can play it on a teamspeak server | 22:39 |
| Nowayz | can pulseaudio do that? | 22:39 |
| cpet | Nowayz: yes :) | 22:39 |
| Nowayz | Oh sweet | 22:39 |
| Nowayz | Will I have to build it? | 22:39 |
| === NoWayJose is now known as Guest66001 | ||
| cpet | That is the nature of pulseaudio | 22:39 |
| cpet | apt-get install pulseaudio | 22:39 |
| commandocoding | escott than ks this used to work earlier http://paste.ubuntu.com/1022150/ Cay idea how to make this work with gsetting | 22:40 |
| Nowayz | It's not in my repos | 22:40 |
| escott | commandocoding, should be similar but with gsettings instead of gconftool | 22:40 |
| Nowayz | I have maverick server install | 22:40 |
| commandocoding | Thanks let me try | 22:40 |

| testingout | carpe diem | 22:43 |
| user__ | Anyone know good software for ubuntu that is similar to photohop (in terms of features) | 22:44 |
| ex0a | gimp is about as close as it gets i think | 22:44 |
| user__ | I didn't think gimp was very "high-preformance' | 22:44 |
| reisio | user__: GIMP | 22:44 |
| ex0a | hence the "as close as it gets" part | 22:44 |
| reisio | version 2.8 even has a single window mode if you want it | 22:45 |
| user__ | Can gimp edit RAW files? NEF's in particular? | 22:45 |
| reisio | there's nothing significant missing from GIMP | 22:45 |
| user__ | ok | 22:45 |
| reisio | user__: format support should be superior to photoshop | 22:45 |
| reisio | otherwise convert with imagemagick first | 22:45 |
| user__ | thanks | 22:45 |
| user__ | What about video editing? | 22:45 |
| reisio | user__: lives, cinelerra, cinepaint - video editing maybe checkout avidemux, too (seems inferior, but /me shrugs) kino diva ? jahshaka kdenlive pitivi | 22:45 |
| reisio | no particular order | 22:45 |
| user__ | anything that can handle 1080p at 24fps? Im using a DSLR | 22:46 |
| cpet | user__: google? | 22:46 |
| reisio | kdenlive might be the most popular | 22:46 |
| escott | user__, pitivi. unless you wanted filmgimp? | 22:46 |
| reisio | that's probably more up to your hardware | 22:46 |
| user__ | pl | 22:46 |
| user__ | *ok | 22:46 |
| reisio | if you want professional video editing, you want cinelerra | 22:46 |
| Nowayz | cpet: I'm used to using RHEL, do you happen to know which repository i'll need to add for pulseaudio | 22:46 |
| user__ | how much is cinelerra | 22:46 |
| commandocoding | BINGO gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons false | 22:46 |
| user__ | or is it free? | 22:46 |
| reisio | commandocoding: for no icons? | 22:47 |
| reisio | user__: free & open source | 22:47 |
| cpet | Nowayz: the default will have it it should already be installed | 22:47 |
| commandocoding | yes | 22:47 |
| vn | say I got 3 dumps from a linux software raid being md0 md1 and md2, how can i reconstitute the drive to mount and access it? | 22:47 |
| commandocoding | Now I can enjoy my wallpapers :) | 22:47 |
| reisio | commandocoding: :p | 22:47 |
| reisio | commandocoding: historically you can get to that through nautilus' prefs, too | 22:47 |
| reisio | dunno if it's still there | 22:47 |
| user__ | so cinelerra is the equivalent to adobes video editing software? | 22:47 |
| reisio | user__: I believe its aims are even more professional than that | 22:48 |
| user__ | very good | 22:48 |
| reisio | as in assembling a feature film | 22:48 |
| user__ | thanks guys | 22:48 |
| Nowayz | cpet: oh you're right! Do you know happen to know of any tutorials guidlining how to run pulseaudio, I don't even know where to star | 22:48 |
| cpet | Nowayz: google? | 22:49 |
| user__ | Lol, why do people waste their money on other software when open source software is just as good if not better | 22:49 |
| escott | vn, if you dumped md devices you have full filesystem images? did you mean to say that you dumped components of an md device? | 22:49 |
| reisio | user__: ignorance | 22:49 |
| user__ | i guess so | 22:49 |
| reisio | Nowayz: it's already running | 22:50 |
| reisio | Nowayz: what else is it you want to accomplish? | 22:50 |
| cpet | reisio: Well not everyone knows how to use Linux as it is still a pain in some aspects, so the only other OS is Mac OS or Windows. | 22:50 |
| Nowayz | reisio: I'm running a VPS server, and I need it to serve as a music bot | 22:50 |
| reisio | cpet: nonsense | 22:50 |
| user__ | how often are new ubuntu updates released? | 22:50 |
| vn | escott: escott exact | 22:50 |
| user__ | on average? | 22:50 |
| reisio | it's true just changing the color of widgets will freak the average person out | 22:50 |
| commandocoding | reisio I do get a few things from nautilus like the background image but this i could not | 22:50 |
| cpet | reisio: heh | 22:51 |
| reisio | but that isn't exactly a problem | 22:51 |
| reisio | not a real one | 22:51 |
| Nowayz | reisio:I need a virtual sound device basically so I can repeat all applications audio into a virtual audio input | 22:51 |
| reisio | you can after all make Linux look and work graphically just like Windows or Mac OS | 22:51 |
| reisio | commandocoding: maybe they changed it <shrug> | 22:51 |
| cpet | user__: as fast as the package creators create updated packages | 22:51 |
| reisio | Nowayz: maybe talk to #pulseaudio | 22:51 |
| reisio | Nowayz: or #jack | 22:51 |
| Nowayz | thanks | 22:51 |
| cpet | Nowayz: You would need to create a server on your machine and use the VPS as a client. it is possible but a pain | 22:52 |
| commandocoding | reisio i guess They are phasing it out as and when features are being migrated, I better change my Desktop setting code too just to be ahead o | 22:52 |
| Nowayz | cpet:Create a pulseaudio server? I'm reading about how it works right now | 22:53 |
| reisio | commandocoding: well GNOME has always liked hiding prefs, but it takes time | 22:53 |
| cpet | In my experience pulseaudio has always lead to cracky shity audio so I disable it | 22:54 |
| Nowayz | cpet: Any alternatives? | 22:54 |
| cpet | For what you want to do no | 22:54 |
| escott | vn, which was it? | 22:54 |
| cpet | Atleast I am unaware of any check freshmeat maybe you can find something that does what you want | 22:54 |
| vn | escott: what do you mean? I got /dev/md0 md1 and md2 | 22:55 |
| commandocoding | In case any one is interested here is the bash I corrected it toggles the deaktop icon in 12.4 visible n not visible http://paste.ubuntu.com/1022212/ | 22:55 |
| escott | vn, if you dd'ed off /dev/md# then you have the full contents you can mount -o loop yourimagefile /media/md0 | 22:56 |
| DocPlatypus | Anyone know why "apt-get source software-center" doesn't work? I get 404s for all the files | 22:56 |
| cpet | DocPlatypus: nope | 22:59 |
| OerHeks | DocPlatypus, the softwarecentre is not opensource, i believe. | 23:00 |
| DocPlatypus | OerHeks: no, apt-get says the source is in bzr | 23:00 |
| trism | DocPlatypus: run: sudo apt-get update; first | 23:00 |
| vn | escott: ok so I'm doing it right must be an issue with zfs | 23:01 |
| trism | DocPlatypus: software-center was updated several times over the last few days, you probably have stale sources | 23:01 |
| DocPlatypus | trism: ah. *that* makes sense. | 23:01 |

| OerHeks | NictraSavios, no, that command in softwarecentre shows you more options. | 23:16 |
| cpet | LinuX2half: install the java package | 23:16 |
| LinuX2half | make install? | 23:16 |

| NictraSavios | OerHeks, Oh sorry, I though you were telling me how to install xcircuit from reis's suggestion. Yea, I know. I was looking for a recomendation instead of searching though "apt-cache search circuit" for hours haha. | 23:17 |
| tuxgeek | linuX2half: is java in your path? | 23:17 |

| tuxgeek | LinuX2half: "tar -xzf yourjava" | 23:22 |
| LinuX2half | escott: I did, sudo update-alternatives --set java /opt/java/32/jre1.7.0_04/bin/java | 23:22 |
| escott | LinuX2half, and that doesn't work? if you chase symlinks from /usr/bin/java though /etc/alternatives you should get to /opt/java/32 | 23:23 |
| LinuX2half | escott: I retyped the commands and now it's asking for some sort of format. | 23:26 |

| zeta- | can ubuntu import account settings for windows mail? | 23:35 |
| zeta- | if so, where would it store them? | 23:35 |
| aaas | zeta- you mean import from a mail client on windows to a different mail client on ubuntu? | 23:35 |
| cpet | zeta-: export the emails should give you a bunch of .eml files then add them to the new client | 23:36 |
| LinuX2half | escott: I think it's asking me to correct my commands: --install <link> <name> <path> <priority> [--slave <link> <name> <path>] .. | 23:36 |
| zeta- | yes, the mail client is called windows mail | 23:36 |
| aaas | zeta- do you have imap/pop? just the settings? or the emails too? | 23:37 |
| zeta- | cpet: i want account settings | 23:37 |
| aaas | zeta- but you dont care about the actuall messages since they're on the server, correct? | 23:37 |
| zeta- | think it's just pop | 23:37 |
| zeta- | aaas: yes correct | 23:38 |
| aaas | zeta- well it still depends if its on the server or not... you wont get your messages if they've been erased off the server | 23:38 |
| NictraSavios | I got gschem working :D | 23:38 |
| aaas | zeta- what client do you want to use in ubuntu? | 23:38 |
| NictraSavios | Thanks! I had to learn how to filter results, found a volt meter and amp meter | 23:38 |
| aaas | zeta- what you are doing is OS agnositic, it's not a ubuntu thing, its a mailprogram 1 -> mail program 2 thing, not really anything to do with ubuntu | 23:39 |
| zeta- | aaas: not worried -- evolution? | 23:39 |
| Nowayz | escott: Okay so assuming I need to capture the sound from firefox for instace, wouldn't I need the alsa emulator in order to loop the sound into an input device | 23:39 |
| aaas | zeta- you may find that after all is said and done that it's easier to just open up two computer, write it down or soemthign else than try and expeort import settings | 23:39 |
| Nowayz | because it seems like all of the applications want to use the alsa drivers | 23:39 |
| aaas | zeta- you just need pass/login, type, port, security | 23:40 |
| LinuX2half | I have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed and on some forums it said that my browser would automatically detect or have the java plugin. | 23:40 |
| escott | Nowayz, with pulse installed your applications should use the pulse alsa emulation | 23:40 |
| LinuX2half | Not sure why this is not my case. | 23:40 |
| janrinze2 | file associations, anyone? | 23:40 |
| Nowayz | okay | 23:40 |
| Nowayz | I don't think pulseaudio is running by default though | 23:40 |
| escott | LinuX2half, oracle changed their rules a few months ago. canonical can no longer distribute sun java | 23:40 |
| Nowayz | So now I need to figure out how to get it running | 23:40 |
| aaas | aaas- it all depends on the client, you'll probably have to google and search the forums of whatever client you want to use, say, thunderbird | 23:41 |
| zeta- | aaas: Ok thanks! but the problem really boils down to extracting password | 23:41 |
| LinuX2half | escott: why? Since Java is a commerical product? | 23:41 |
| aaas | zeta- ^^ that was meant for you | 23:41 |
| aaas | zeta- extracting the pass? | 23:41 |
| cpet | so I take it this includes openjdk as well? | 23:42 |
| zeta- | aaas: windows mail won't tell me the password | 23:42 |
| aaas | zeta- pass to access the program or to access your mail server? | 23:42 |
| zeta- | server | 23:42 |
| escott | LinuX2half, larry ellison is a ****. i don't know. future versions of oracle java will be based on openjdk and so openjdk should be very close | 23:42 |
| aaas | zeta- hmmm i doubt the password is in plain text anywhere, you cant really get it back, i really don't know if what you want to do is possible because you have to move some special settings setup of win mail to some completely different setup in something like thunderbird | 23:44 |
| aaas | zeta- cant you get the server pass somehow? | 23:44 |
| aaas | zeta- email the admin? | 23:44 |
| janrinze2 | how do i add a custom file association in the file browser? i need to use a different program that is not in the list. the program is in my home dir | 23:45 |

| escott | LinuX2half, sorry i dont know update-alternatives. its not something ive used before, just know it is supposed to be used | 23:46 |
| Ceres | Okay, so I'm starting a 'process' like this: node filename.js | 23:46 |
| Ceres | And then, when I want it to stop, I do Ctrl+Z | 23:47 |
| Ceres | And then I have to do "ps" to find it's PID, and then I do: kill -9 PID to stop it. | 23:47 |
| janrinze2 | reisio: the default file browser in 12.04 | 23:47 |
| escott | Ceres, that doesn't stop, it suspends. Ctrl-C kills | 23:47 |
| Ceres | There must be a better way :/ | 23:47 |
| === cmr is now known as {`^`} | ||
| Ceres | Okay, so Ctrl-C. | 23:47 |
| tuxgeek | ctrl C | 23:47 |
| reisio | as in cancel | 23:47 |
| Ceres | Thanks. | 23:47 |
| zeta- | aaas: tried all support options (they deny the account exists) importing is my last hope | 23:47 |
| aaas | zeta- look further down the thread... someone did win mail -> outlook -> thunderbird .. but you might just want to bite the bullet and try and track down that pass, you might need it sooner or later, and from now on use a good password manager/evernote or something and keep good notes so it doesnt happen again | 23:48 |
| zeta- | looking @link | 23:48 |
| Ceres | If I ctrl+Z to suspend a process, how do I un-suspend it? | 23:48 |
| reisio | Ceres: fg | 23:48 |
| aaas | zeta- i see...well try that thread, if not try 10 pass a day for the next year until it works ;) | 23:48 |

| Ceres | Okay, I'll look into those two. | 23:49 |
| === sN is now known as wN | ||
| Ceres | Thanks for the help. | 23:49 |
| zeta- | aaas: :D thx | 23:49 |
| reisio | LinuX2half: icedtea is a JRE, yes | 23:49 |
| reisio | Ceres: they're usually shell built-ins, so you can run 'help jobs' or 'help fg' | 23:49 |
| reisio | Ceres: as well as being provided by coreutils if you want to use those for some reason (not likely) | 23:49 |
| reisio | but in which case you'd consult man jobs, man fg, etc. | 23:49 |
| tricky_ | #ubuntu-Locoteams | 23:50 |
| Ceres | So if I want to escape out of a program and to the command line, but not suspend or stop the job, is there a command for that? | 23:51 |
| tuxgeek | hit the q key | 23:51 |
| escott | Ceres, you can ctrl-z and then "fq &" | 23:51 |
| OerHeks | Ceres or just open a second terminal tab | 23:52 |
| reisio | Ceres: I'd probably just open another terminal tab, yeah | 23:52 |
| reisio | or 'screen' 'window' | 23:52 |
| Ceres | That's what I've been doing, opening a second terminal. | 23:52 |
| Ceres | I"m hosting stuff from this computer, though, so the result is having lots of terminal windows cluttering my desktop. | 23:52 |
| reisio | sudo apt-get install screen | 23:52 |
| escott | Ceres, rather "bg" | 23:53 |
| reisio | Ceres: the meat of it is 'screen' to start, CTRL+a, then c to -create- new "screens", CTRL+a, then K (that's SHIFT+k) to kill the current one, CTRL+a, then # to jump around them (or CTRL+a, then " [SHIFT+']), CTRL+a, then ESC to enter selection mode, SPACE to toggle selection on/off, and CTRL+a, ] to paste | 23:54 |
| OerHeks | Ceres, some apps started from terminal can occupy the terminal, this can be resolved with & >> " nautilus & " or " filezilla & " | 23:54 |
| Ceres | Both those last lines are a little hard for me to understand at this moment. | 23:55 |
| reisio | Ceres: try it out after you get screen | 23:55 |
| Ceres | I think I have the knowledge I need to move forward at the moment. | 23:55 |
| Ceres | What is "screen"? | 23:55 |
| Ceres | Oh. | 23:55 |
| reisio | it turns one term into infinite terms | 23:56 |
| Ceres | I see your previous comment. | 23:56 |
| reisio | and has fancy features like copying & pasting without a mouse | 23:56 |
| Ceres | That would be fantastic. | 23:56 |
| reisio | Ceres: some Ubuntu people also like byobu http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byobu_%28software%29 | 23:57 |
| reisio | haven't personally tried it | 23:57 |
| Ceres | Do you have a link to the software? I see several links on google, but with such a generic name I want to make sure I have the correct one. | 23:57 |
| reisio | Ceres: you can also accidentally (or not) close a terminal with screen running in it, and re-attach to it later, everything will still be running | 23:58 |
| janrinze2 | nautilus has 'properties' -> open with .. but you cannot add your own program .. | 23:58 |
| reisio | it's sudo apt-get install screen | 23:58 |
| Ceres | That sounds like exactly what I want. | 23:58 |
| reisio | or sudo apt-get install byobu | 23:58 |
| Ceres | Thanks. | 23:58 |
| OerHeks | janrinze2, opening any own made .deb will open softwarecentre to install it | 23:59 |
| Ceres | While I'm here, I should probably ask how I can set up a bunch of commands to run on start-up. | 23:59 |
| reisio | Ceres: what sort of commands | 23:59 |
| OerHeks | janrinze2, or use dpkg -i <deb> | 23:59 |
| AndIrc__ | hello everybody | 23:59 |
