[00:00] <juan_> Relondo: thats easy, make sure you put wubi and the iso image in the same folder
[00:00] <Relondo> n1ckn4me09876543: Okay.
[00:00] <eagle_eye> Relondo: you will need high speed to successfully complete this task
[00:00] <juan_> Relondo: once you tell wubi what you want to install it will pick up the image in the same folder
[00:01] <Relondo> eagle_eye: I do have high-speed. I just prefer to knock out as much of the download as possible, becasue mine is extended DSL.
[00:01] <n1ckn4me09876543> Pierreb: something that's compatible with linux.  You get crappy hardware support when a company doesn't have release firmware for linux.
[00:01] <Relondo> juan_: Awesome, thanks.
[00:01] <Lunar_Lander> LittleBallOfHate, the flashplugin-installer was among the updates a few minutes ago and it downloaded and then wrote that it was to install from archive.canonical.com and then the updater stood there and then proceeded and then a window came up about that loading of additional files for the update had failed, that the module was unusable and would have to be uninstalled before installing anew
[00:01] <Yoshimi-pink> I'm using a thumb drive and i want to just be able to put files on and take them off but using ext 2,3,4 gives me hell about permissions, how can i handle this? I also have filenames i want to put on it which don't agree with fat 16,32
[00:01] <juan_> Relondo: yeah so just make sure the 2 files are on the same folder and you can install offline
[00:01] <eagle_eye> Relondo: otherwise go with the iso install
[00:02] <juan_> Relondo: that;s how i always do it and it works like a charm :)
[00:02] <Relondo> Alright, you've all been great help. Thanks a bunch, and I'm off to install!
[00:02] <zykotick9> Yoshimi-pink: with ext on a usb, you can change the permissions...
[00:02] <Yoshimi-pink> how do i do that?
[00:03] <escott> Yoshimi-pink, are you moving those files between diferent linux computers with different users
[00:03] <zykotick9> Yoshimi-pink: have you created subfolders on the USB?  "chmod ugo+rwx /media/USB/subfolder" would give everyone full permission
[00:03] <shwouchk> Hello
[00:04] <Yoshimi-pink> this might sound stupid but what is a subfolder?
[00:04] <Yoshimi-pink> is it just a folder on the usb?
[00:04] <zykotick9> Yoshimi-pink: sorry, subdirectory
[00:05] <Chaos_Zero> is their any ubuntu networking sub channel?
[00:05] <zykotick9> Yoshimi-pink: "mkdir foo" type thing
[00:05] <LittleBallOfHate> Lunar_Lander: Chaos_Zero not really
[00:05] <Yoshimi-pink> ok thanks
[00:05] <LittleBallOfHate> Lunar_Lander: not sure about that error man. I spend most of the time on the console.
[00:05] <Chaos_Zero> darn
[00:05] <LittleBallOfHate> Chaos_Zero: dude, just ask here
[00:05] <shwouchk> I am trying to install ubuntu on a dell inspiron b130, but during the load from liveUSB it stops loading with no error messages or anything. How do I go about debugging this?
[00:06] <Chaos_Zero> any off chance anyone else ever tried to set up two seperate internet connections on one ubuntu server?
[00:06] <Yoshimi-pink> I feel weird that i have a thumb drive the size of my pinky larger than a hard drive on my old computer
[00:06] <Lunar_Lander> LittleBallOfHate, ah ok, I just assume it didn't connect to canonical at first and that caused the error
[00:06] <eagle_eye> LittleBallOfHate: +1
[00:06] <escott> Chaos_Zero, meaning what?
[00:06] <Chaos_Zero> like, with two modems, one i want to do everything normally, the other just for transmission-deamon
[00:06] <LittleBallOfHate> Chaos_Zero: what are you trying to achieve?
[00:06] <zykotick9> !nomodeset | shwouchk have you tried this?
[00:07] <LittleBallOfHate> Chaos_Zero: that's easy
[00:07] <Chaos_Zero> i have tried using the "bind address" for transmission but it does not work
[00:07] <escott> Chaos_Zero, http://www.howtoforge.com/network_card_bonding_centos
[00:07] <Chaos_Zero> i have read up and seen that ubuntu usually only had one default route
[00:07] <LittleBallOfHate> Chaos_Zero: iptables
[00:07] <Chaos_Zero> yeah i started to get into that but i am to much of a noob
[00:08] <escott> Chaos_Zero, http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-networking-3/add-route-based-on-port-not-ip-486823/
[00:08] <shwouchk> zykotick9, I actually tried booting without the splash and quiet options and now see that the moment it stops is when it doesn't find the firmware for my wifi card
[00:08] <Chaos_Zero> thats alot of links to look at
[00:08] <Chaos_Zero> =D
[00:09] <zykotick9> shwouchk: ummm, sorry i don't have any suggestions for that.  good luck.
[00:09] <shwouchk> zykotick9, thanks
[00:09] <LittleBallOfHate> Chaos_Zero: you want to tell it that any traffic on this certain port is to go out eth whatever is the one you want
[00:10] <Chaos_Zero> ok, but transmission randomizes ports normally right
[00:11] <shwouchk> I an trying to install on a dell inspiron b130 machine and during the boot of the liveUSB it hangs while loading the networking drivers, complaining it hasn't the firmware for the device (b43). Help?
[00:12] <LittleBallOfHate> Chaos_Zero: not sure, but I have no idea how you'd deal with that
[00:12] <eagle_eye> !network | shwouchk
[00:12] <P-Chan> Hello I have this problem:
[00:12] <P-Chan> *ERROR* EDID checksum is invalid, remainder is  247
[00:12] <escott> Chaos_Zero, if you could run transmission as a particular uid or gid you could make your rule based on that. i dont think its possible to route based on application but it might be
[00:12] <P-Chan> how solve this
[00:12] <escott> P-Chan, buy a new monitor
[00:13] <P-Chan> escott: why?
[00:13] <escott> P-Chan, because you monitor has an invalid EDID table. the checksum is wrong
[00:14] <P-Chan> escott: before it don't had error. And now the monitor don't go to 1200x800
[00:14] <escott> P-Chan, there isn't a lot you can do about this. if it works then just the checksum is wrong, if it doesnt work...
[00:14] <P-Chan> escott: it's work. I am on this monitor
[00:15] <P-Chan> escott: the monitor vendor is daewoo
[00:15] <P-Chan> :(
[00:16] <escott> P-Chan, if you need to silence the error you can create an xorg.conf with an Option UseEdid as "no" if you need another modeline you can manually specify it. otherwise you live with the fact that your hardware is broken, but hopefully not too broken
[00:18] <P-Chan> escott: well, this hardware work yet and I have other monitor
[00:18] <P-Chan> I will learn to hide this error
[00:19] <P-Chan> escott: But now ubuntu don't have xorg.config... and now?
[00:19] <lgc> I wonder why I ended up with my Ubuntu in English. I remember choosing the keyboard, but not the language.
[00:20] <P-Chan> I have other problem guys. Only MATE interface works well here. XFCE, KDE, LXDE causes lag in my mouse and lags
[00:22] <escott> lgc, the language selection is at the beginning of the installer. i think it assumes that if you are installing through english your desired language is english
[00:22] <P-Chan> escott: how you discovered this monitor error?
[00:24] <P-Chan> escott: teach me how hide this error please
[00:24] <escott> P-Chan, EDID is a bit of data that the monitor reports when asked by the video card that describes its capabilities (maximum resolutions and refresh rates). your's is invalid so that error is meant to protect the hardware -- we cant be sure that the resolutions and refresh rates we are being told work are correct... so the computer will use "safe" resolutions.
[00:24] <lgc> escott, I probably fell asleep while installing, but I ended up with English. I want Spanish now.
[00:24] <jrdnn> P-Chan if no xorg.conf to put what he said type Xorg --configure in terminal
[00:25] <P-Chan> jrdnn: I did it but not happen. I will try  one more time
[00:25] <luigi69> Morning
[00:26] <escott> P-Chan, if you want to hide it you have to create an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file (if you have nvidia you already have one) otherwise you create one with Xorg --configure and then add modelines and specify UseEDID FALSE
[00:26] <escott> P-Chan, see http://www.kubuntuforums.net/showthread.php?48635-quot-useEDID-quot-quot-False-quot-option-is-ignored-in-xorg-conf
[00:26] <luigi69> I have a question... I am looking for a program, that would work under ubuntu
[00:26] <luigi69> and help me get files from a disc with bad sectors
[00:26] <P-Chan> escott: is this dangerous? hide the monitor error
[00:26] <escott> P-Chan, the UseEDID option is presumably associated with the Monitor section of the xorg.conf
[00:27] <P-Chan> ok
[00:27] <luigi69> I have a disc with 3 partitions (NTFS), it has bad sectors, and i can't mount one of this partitions... i get a S.M.A.R.T backup & replace error, and i would like to rescude some data
[00:27] <luigi69> any recommendations ?
[00:27] <lotus-blade> what is the best way to setup a mail server after install of desktop?
[00:27] <lgc> escott, changing the regional formats was no good, and I didn't get to change the language on the Language tab.
[00:28] <reisio> lotus-blade: can probably still use tasksel or whatever
[00:28] <P-Chan> escott: is possible this problem affects stability?
[00:28] <escott> P-Chan, in the past there was a danger (with CRTs) that if you sent a higher frequency than the screen was capable you could damage the display (because electrons were being sent where they shouldnt be). not sure that is a problem in modern LCDs, but it is a loss of convenience
[00:28] <escott> lgc, im not sure how to install additional languages. ask the channel
[00:28] <P-Chan> escott: this monitor is LCD
[00:29] <lgc> You mean here, escott ?
[00:29] <escott> lgc, yes
[00:29] <P-Chan> jrdnn: Xorg --configure or sudo Xorg --configure ?
[00:29] <lgc> escott, thanks.
[00:29] <tomodo> am I the only one who finds it extremely difficult to find the right bit to drag to resize windows?
[00:29] <escott> P-Chan, then you are probably just losing convenience because you will have to specify modelines
[00:30] <lgc> Hi, how can I change the language settings on my machine? The obvious thing just didn't work.
[00:30] <jrdnn> P-Chan, Sorry, sudo Xorg -configure
[00:30] <P-Chan> jrdnn: thanks
[00:30] <jrdnn> P-Chan: you're welcome
[00:30] <P-Chan> jrdnn: Fatal server error: Unrecognized option: --configure
[00:30] <P-Chan> What!
[00:31] <reisio> lotus-blade: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel
[00:31] <reisio> lotus-blade: dunno what 'mail-server' maps to
[00:31] <jrdnn> P-Chan, try with just one - e.g. "sudo Xorg -configure"
[00:31] <P-Chan> jrdnn:
[00:31] <LittleBallOfHate> lotus-blade: sudo apt-get install postfix
[00:31] <LittleBallOfHate> lotus-blade: then read up on main.cf
[00:32] <P-Chan> jrdnn: Configuration failed.  ddxSigGiveUp: Closing log
[00:32] <bele> hiii, I need some help please
[00:32] <LittleBallOfHate> bele, just ask
[00:32] <P-Chan> bele: shoot
[00:32] <bele> I can't use fn + for brighness
[00:32] <P-Chan> jrdnn: Configuration failed.  ddxSigGiveUp: Closing log
[00:32] <LittleBallOfHate> bele: what machine?
[00:33] <P-Chan> jrdnn: sorry i posted twice the same error
[00:33] <bele> I tried with xbacklight and nothing, and with drivers of my video card
[00:33] <lappy> Ok, so I'm to recover deleted files using ntfsundelete.  However, I have to recover each file one at a time and it can't recover the filenames for some reason.  Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong, or have a suggestion for a different method?
[00:33] <bele> I have a samsung rv411
[00:33] <LittleBallOfHate> bele: most of the time that is a WMI function
[00:34] <LittleBallOfHate> bele: what type of machine?
[00:34] <LittleBallOfHate> bele: ah ok
[00:34] <P-Chan> jrdnn: http://pastebin.com/RUKzFae6
[00:34] <jrdnn> P-Chan what does "cat /etc/passwd | grep gdm" say?
[00:34] <P-Chan> jrdnn: I don't use gdm
[00:34] <bele> what can I do ? :(
[00:35] <P-Chan> jrdnn: I typed and nothing happen
[00:35] <srand> is there a flash alternative for ubuntu 64 bit? i've been trying to update flash for the last hours on a clean install without success and I'm really starting to get hopeless...
[00:36] <LittleBallOfHate> bele: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/886820/comments/28
[00:36] <LittleBallOfHate> bele: maybe?
[00:36] <LittleBallOfHate> ubottu: thanks
[00:37] <smithw> Hi, is there a way to add regional formats/dictionary support for different languages on Ubuntu without changing the OS main language?
[00:38] <herpladee> hey guys where's the conky config file thing
[00:38] <P-Chan> jrdnn: I don't typed the code before post. And now it is valid: http://pastebin.com/RUKzFae6
[00:38] <herpladee> i can never find it
[00:39] <fidel> herpladee: just create it yourself if you cant find one
[00:39] <gr33n7007h> herpladee, ~/.conkyrc
[00:40] <WFPKHC> hello world...
[00:40] <lilred> hey guys, I want to help with development and testing of Ubuntu
[00:41] <jayanth> hi
[00:41] <lilred> Currently installing Quantal, but what should I know?
[00:41] <lilred> And what should I do?
[00:41] <jayanth> Its amazing
[00:41] <lilred> How can I put my coding skills to work?
[00:41] <jayanth> I love Ubuntu
[00:41] <herpladee> fidel, i already have one i just need to make a little change
[00:41] <JoseeAntonioR> lilred: Sure! you can check everything here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributeToUbuntu
[00:41] <herpladee> gr33n7007h, i don't have that file
[00:41] <JoseeAntonioR> lilred: thanks for taking the time to help the community!
[00:42] <JoseeAntonioR> jayanth: Hi!
[00:42] <gr33n7007h> herpladee, like fidel said just create one
[00:42] <jrdnn> P-Chan do you use KDE?
[00:42] <herpladee> create one?
[00:42] <P-Chan> jrdnn: no
[00:43] <P-Chan> I use XFCE and MATE
[00:43] <herpladee> but i already have a file somewhere that's configured i need to make a slight change to it
[00:43] <reisio> 'Xfce'
[00:43] <WFPKHC> is there a way i can download a live version of ubuntu if so where?
[00:43] <reisio> I just use one DE myself
[00:43] <reisio> WFPKHC: http://ubuntu.com/
[00:43] <WFPKHC> yes i was tehre and it only gives me desktop or server
[00:44] <reisio> WFPKHC: or more faster (by picking a closer mirror): https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+cdmirrors
[00:44] <bele> thank you, I'll try it
[00:44] <herpladee> oh i just found it now
[00:44] <reisio> WFPKHC: what's wrong with that?
[00:44] <P-Chan> reisio: I use two because LXDE, XFCE are runing with lag
[00:44] <reisio> 'Xfce'
[00:44] <gr33n7007h> herpladee, ls ~/.* | grep conkyrc
[00:44] <Htbrdd> .
[00:44] <reisio> probably because you have so many installed :p
[00:44] <gr33n7007h> oh you found it
[00:44] <WFPKHC> well i would like to install the OS and install what packages i want - not what someone else thinks i want =D
[00:45] <herpladee> it was in /etc/conky/conky.conf though :)
[00:45] <P-Chan> reisio: my hardware http://filebin.ca/4NdzTKom7fi
[00:45] <reisio> WFPKHC: mmm, then you want Debian netinstall
[00:45] <KRomo> is it possible to partition a flash drive for dual boot installations of windows 8 and ubuntu 12.04?
[00:45] <reisio> KRomo: course
[00:45] <t0ntin> Hi, all. I'm trying to install ubuntu using an installation DVD. I'm hoping someone can tell me how to do it by looking at these pictures. Can't figure it out. https://picasaweb.google.com/boyaqo/June82012
[00:45] <KRomo> like, so i can choose which installation?
[00:45] <jrdnn> P-Chan if you type ls "/etc/X11" is there any file beginning with xorg.conf ?
[00:45] <WFPKHC> why debian?
[00:45] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, you could start with the server version and go up from there, I guess
[00:45] <KRomo> would grub need to be used as a boot manager?
[00:45] <WFPKHC> what is installed with the server version?
[00:46] <P-Chan> jrdnn: no
[00:46] <WFPKHC> and the problem is the USB installer wont do the server version it will only do desktop or dvd
[00:47] <fidel> WFPKHC: basically a more monimal collection of packages
[00:47] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, not a lot. No X, no DE, etc.
[00:47] <fidel> *minimal*
[00:47] <reisio> P-Chan: far out
[00:47] <WFPKHC> i am new to linux and do not understand what noX and noDE means
[00:47] <P-Chan> reisio: ???
[00:48] <reisio> WFPKHC: presumably some newfangled jargon for 'not using X (the window system)' or 'not using a DE (desktop environment, like GNOME, Unity, etc.)'
[00:48] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, if you're new to Linux, install the ordinary desktop version and play with that for a while
[00:48] <WFPKHC> k
[00:48] <jayanth> hi
[00:48] <roasted> Is anybody else's Firefox/Flash coming up with extremely washed out colors? Chrome works fine... Although Chrome also bugs me each time a flash site comes up requiring me to hit "run this time..." <_<
[00:48] <reisio> jayanth: hi
[00:48] <reisio> roasted: washed out, or blue? :D
[00:48] <roasted> bluish, yeah
[00:49] <reisio> roasted: it's a bug with nvidia/flash
[00:49] <reisio> roasted: you can disable hardware acceleration if you can't stand it
[00:49] <WFPKHC> does ubuntu server 12.04 come with a gui?
[00:49] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, nope.
[00:49] <WFPKHC> can you install a gui on it?
[00:49] <roasted> I'm fine with it. I just fired up Firefox to youtube for a bit without the annoying run this time message. Have you seen taht in chrome reisio ?
[00:49] <fidel> WFPKHC: you wold have to install it manually afterwards
[00:50] <WFPKHC> i understand about terminal
[00:50] <WFPKHC> kind of
[00:50] <jrdnn> P-Chan try making a file there called xorg.conf and put 'Section "Device"<enter> Option "UseEDID" "FALSE"<enter>EndSection' and save
[00:50] <fidel> WFPKHC: you just tell the package management to install the related package
[00:50] <Madpilot> you could, yes. lots of work to basically get to where the desktop version starts out at, though.
[00:50] <reisio> roasted: it's a bug with nvidia/flash
[00:50] <roasted> reisio, oh, chrome as well?
[00:50] <WFPKHC> im used to Yum  will that work on ubuntu?
[00:50] <reisio> roasted: ...anything that uses flash
[00:50] <reisio> I would suspect
[00:50] <roasted> reisio, I see. I thought you were just talking about the firefox issue
[00:50] <roasted> reisio, my apologies.
[00:50] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, Ubuntu is a Debian derivative, so apt instead of yum.
[00:51] <WFPKHC> ok
[00:51] <WFPKHC> may i ask what is the command to install gnome 3 on ubutu please?
[00:51] <P-Chan> jrdnn: ok. is this solve the xorg creation? and Do I paste in etc x11?
[00:52] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, if you mean Gnome Shell, there's a gnome-shell package you can install
[00:52] <WFPKHC> yes gnome 3
[00:52] <jrdnn> P-Chan, It should use the defaults xorg settings except disabling the warning about back edid checksum
[00:52] <xangua> WFPKHC: you are already using gnome3
[00:52] <tuxgeek> WFPKHCV: sudo apt-get instal gnom-shell
[00:52] <WFPKHC> i was using gnome 3 on a default fedora 17 install
[00:52] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, Unity is based on Gnome 3, jus twith Unity instead of Gnome Shell
[00:52] <tuxgeek> gnome*
[00:52] <zykotick9> !notunity | WFPKHC
[00:53] <reisio> roasted: Chrome may or may not have a different plugin API at this point, don't recall
[00:53] <gr33n7007h> sudo apt-get install gnome-shell
[00:53] <WFPKHC> please dont confuse me im already confused enough
[00:53] <P-Chan> jrdnn: Ok and does I past in etc/x11 right?
[00:53] <velaur> any reason why oracle vb running on windows 7, can't install Linux Mint ubuntu? (debian/ubuntu/etc works fine) but mint says I need to update bios?
[00:53] <P-Chan> poaste
[00:53] <P-Chan> paste
[00:53] <jrdnn> /etc/x11 new file named xorg.conf
[00:53] <P-Chan> jr
[00:53] <reisio> velaur: 'cause mint is broken?
[00:53] <Madpilot> ubottu, mint | velaur
[00:53] <velaur> I use 32bit & 64bit
[00:53] <P-Chan> jrdnn: And reboot?
[00:54] <jrdnn> P-Chan yes
[00:54] <jrdnn> P-Chan or restart X
[00:54] <velaur> okay thanks ubottu
[00:54] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, install the regular desktop version of Ubuntu for now, you can try out Gnome Shell and such from there, and you can always nuke it in favour of a server install and roll your own desktop at some point
[00:55] <WFPKHC> k D
[00:55] <WFPKHC> can i run a server from the desktop version?
[00:55] <roasted> WFPKHC, I do
[00:56] <WFPKHC> is it any good?
[00:56] <WFPKHC> do you use apache or nginx?
[00:56] <roasted> WFPKHC, the desktop vs server versions of Ubuntu aren't nearly as far apart as Windows is.
[00:56] <roasted> WFPKHC, apache
[00:56] <WFPKHC> oh ok
[00:56] <WFPKHC> because i come from windows and they are worlds apart
[00:56] <roasted> WFPKHC, I tried to set up nginx recently, but either their documentation sucks/is incorrect or I'm an idiot
[00:56] <WFPKHC> k
[00:56] <roasted> I'm likely an idiot :P
 can i run a server from the desktop version? <- can you, yea <.< you can run any OS and use it as a server
[00:56] <cleaninstall> maybe all the above
[00:56] <reisio> nginx isn't so hard
[00:56] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, you can run a server off a desktop Ubuntu, I did for development for a few years. Works just fine. A basic LAMP install is dead simple.
[00:57] <reisio> Apache is still on top though... for the moment
[00:57] <roasted> reisio, that's what I was told.
[00:57] <roasted> reisio, however, I'd have to disagree.
[00:57] <reisio> not for much longer, though
[00:57] <reisio> roasted: I'm sure there are explicit guides if you need one
[00:57] <roasted> reisio, I had trouble figuring out which files to edit. Apache's documentation is crazy amazing.
[00:57] <WFPKHC> i wish to use Linux Nginx postgresql and php
[00:57] <roasted> reisio, been there.
[00:57] <roasted> reisio, Google lights up with purple links I've alrleady visited bro.
[00:57] <reisio> roasted: there's really only one file, nginx.conf
[00:57] <roasted> reisio, I stopped caring.
[00:58] <roasted> reisio, am I thinking of lighttpd?
[00:58] <reisio> roasted: just saying
[00:58] <roasted> lighttpd also has 1 file though
[00:58] <reisio> roasted: I don't know
[00:58] <roasted> reisio, any guides you'd recommend with nginx?  I stil want to tinker with it and get it running.
[00:58] <reisio> WFPKHC: php fpm + suhosin
[00:58] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, that should be doable. The core of the desktop version of Ubuntu is identical to the core of server, the same commands will work on either version.
[00:58] <WFPKHC> what is suhosin?
[00:58] <reisio> WFPKHC: makes PHP slightly less ragingly insecure than it is by default
[00:58] <WFPKHC> kk thank you (to everyone so many people here to help and are friendly)
[00:59] <reisio> roasted: http://www.google.com/search?q=%22ubuntu%22%20%22nginx%22%20%22php-fpm%22 ?
[00:59] <WFPKHC> WFPKHC: makes PHP slightly less ragingly insecure than it is by default - i didnt understand that
[00:59] <reisio> WFPKHC: it makes PHP more secure
[00:59] <WFPKHC> what does?
[00:59] <reisio> the 'suhosin' patchset
[00:59] <WFPKHC> oh ok
[00:59] <WFPKHC> i didnt know that - sorry
[00:59] <reisio> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suhosin
[01:00] <reisio> seems Ubuntu uses it by default, so you won't even have to bother
[01:00] <roasted> reisio, I understood php wouldl be overkill for my application, so I didn't bother going into anything php related. Perhaps thats why?
[01:00] <reisio> roasted: why what, you couldn't get nginx to work?
[01:00] <WFPKHC> k
[01:00] <reisio> roasted: what does your application use?
[01:00] <roasted> reisio, if I recall, I could get nginx to bring up the default page, but no other content I added would populate.
[01:01] <reisio> roasted: what lang/extension?
[01:01] <roasted> reisio, I run Motion... motion detection video surveillance software. I set Motion to save AVI's of my video feeds in apache's web directory so I can view the feeds outside of my LAN. That's really it.
[01:01] <roasted> reisio, I basically just use Apache as a glorified external Nautilus
[01:01] <reisio> so you couldn't get nginx to display your avi's in a directory index?
[01:01] <roasted> reisio, I could get nginx to come up with the default nginx page, but that was it. Ic ould get no further.
[01:01] <WFPKHC> hey does anyone here use the universal usb installer? for pendrive linux?
[01:02] <reisio> you said that already :p
[01:02] <reisio> WFPKHC: I use unetbootin or dd
[01:02] <roasted> reisio, well, yeah. That's all the further I could lget. Nothing else.
[01:02] <reisio> roasted: k... well I'm sure #nginx would be able to help you if you try it again sometime
[01:02] <roasted> reisio, yeah, I'm in there now... spent quite some time there already.
[01:03] <roasted> reisio, all I got were links to guides which didn't answer my questions. I'm not sure people understood how simple of a setup I was looking for.
[01:03] <WFPKHC> well in pendrivelinux which is on the ubuntu.com website - it says i need to use that software but the ubuntu -12.04 server amd 64 isnt in the list?
[01:03] <reisio> roasted: maybe not
[01:03] <reisio> roasted: ask them how to get an open directory index that shows .avi files
[01:04] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, link to pendrivelinux? I know you can put Ubuntu on a USB drive, but the only way I've ever done that myself is thru the utility that comes pre-installed in desktop Ubuntu
[01:04] <WFPKHC> http://www.ubuntu.com/download/help/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows
[01:04] <reisio> WFPKHC: I'd use unetbootin
[01:04] <reisio> it takes generic images
[01:04] <WFPKHC> really?
[01:04] <reisio> you could also use dd on Windows, but if you make a typo you're SOL :p
[01:05] <WFPKHC> so unetbootin is better?
[01:05] <reisio> unetbootin is the standard, I don't know what all these other apps are
[01:05] <WFPKHC> k
[01:05] <reisio> if it says it works on ubuntu.com, though, it might
[01:06] <WFPKHC> im going to swap to laptop irc brb
[01:06] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, those instructions look straightforward enough; I haven't used Windows at home in about six years, so wasn't aware of the pendrivelinux app
[01:07] <Madpilot> if you download the server ISO you should be able to access it from that pendrive app and get it installed, presumably
[01:09] <[1]WFPKHC> hi
[01:09] <[1]WFPKHC> im back
[01:09] <WFPKHC> im back
[01:10] <reisio> wb dood
[01:10] <bkerensa> !justask | WFPKHC
[01:10] <sancas> i want to add in my grub an entry for start xbmc i have ubuntu 12.04 right now! anyone know how do it?
[01:10] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, I see Ubuntu Server versions in that screenshot on the Ubuntu website, so it looks like that pendrivelinux app can create server installers. Just download the ISO you want and point the pendrive app at it.
[01:11] <WFPKHC> k thank you alot
[01:12] <sacarlson> sancas: that doesn't sound like something that is added at the grub point more like from the start scripts
[01:13] <c_smith_tmp> I'm back
[01:13] <WFPKHC> i using unetbootin now
[01:13] <c_smith_tmp> whoops, wc
[01:13] <WFPKHC> i can install to a hard drive from the usb then cant i?
[01:14] <reisio> sancas: /etc/lightdm/
[01:15] <sancas> ok i'll read about it :) thks reisio
[01:15] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, yes
[01:17] <CQN> bug reports for the proprietary nvidia driver shouldn't be filed with ubuntu, right?
[01:18] <sacarlson> CQN: I would think if they are linked into ubuntu repository then a bug report would be good.  did you get the driver direct from nvidia web site?
[01:20] <sacarlson> CQN: as seen here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/770559
[01:31] <CQN> sacarlson: the driver was installed from within ubuntu, not from the nvidia site
[01:32] <sacarlson> CQN: as seen here we do create bug reports for propriatary  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/770559
[01:32] <CQN> sacarlson: alright, i'll do that then
[01:35] <WFPKHC> if i set up ubutu desktop as a web server
[01:35] <WFPKHC> am i able to remote administrate it from another computer
[01:35] <Chaos_Zero> hey again , i have been messing with iptables
[01:36] <velaur> is it just me, or does other people hate the stupid side bar in ubuntu?
[01:36] <Ben64> !info linux-server
[01:36] <Chaos_Zero> i do hate that baar
[01:36] <iluciv> Hi there, just wondering if someone can point me to some useful info to start troubleshooting an issue i'm having with Ubuntu 12.04 x64. The OS will intermittently not fully start up from cold boot and I need to restart and then it will go through the full boot process to UI
[01:36] <Chaos_Zero> i wish it was on any side but the left
[01:36] <velaur> is there a way to remove it? or I have to use kubuntu or something else to get rid of it?
[01:37] <LinXz> 1[WFPKHC] > Yes, you are.
[01:37] <WFPKHC> ?
[01:37] <Chaos_Zero> so escott if you are still there
[01:37] <iluciv> Seems to drop out of the graphical boot and go to the boot log and stop on winbind
[01:37] <Chaos_Zero> i followed this eventally: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/12085/only-allow-certain-outbound-traffic-on-certain-interfaces
[01:37] <Ben64> !nounity | velaur
[01:37] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, yes, you can SSH in and control it just like you were sitting in front of it
[01:38] <WFPKHC> k thank you - i failed at installing the server version of ununtu so im goign to try the desktop like you said =D im just preparing the usb now
[01:38] <resno> im having a small issue with unmet dependencies, how can i get them fixed?
[01:38] <Chaos_Zero> it seems straightforward except that it does not work lol i can set the port inside transmission daemon. I tried  random 20567
[01:38] <velaur> ah okay, thanks ubottu
[01:38] <Chaos_Zero> still no traffic by the secondary
[01:38] <resno> im having a small issue with unmet dependencies, how can i get them fixed? - i have tried apt-get install -f and its nt correcting them
[01:40] <Chaos_Zero> ...or for anyone else knowlagable, (word?) i an trying to use iptables to force al traffic from transmission-daemon onto a specific interface
[01:40] <Chaos_Zero> so far thigs look grim
[01:40] <resno> Chaos_Zero: knowledgable.. just mispelled :)
[01:40] <Chaos_Zero> yeah
[01:40] <Chaos_Zero> my worst grade ever was in spelling
[01:40] <Chaos_Zero> but anyway
[01:41] <Chaos_Zero> iptables? does anyone use this for the purpose i had in mind? i saw earlies escott was thinking what i was, bind it to a pid
[01:41] <resno> how to correct unmet dependencies - apt-get install -f not working
[01:41] <blahblah_> did you put the address in transmission?
[01:41] <Chaos_Zero> but i cant seem to find anything like that so i guess its going to have to be a port
[01:42] <Chaos_Zero> transmission has a bind address in its settings.json, and this used to work before the server started actin as a web server
[01:42] <Chaos_Zero> but the web server part wont work unless i set the default route out the other interface
[01:42] <Chaos_Zero> then tansmission just ignores the bind
[01:43] <WFPKHC> why didnt the desktop install ask me to insert a root password?
[01:43] <xangua> !root | WFPKHC
[01:43] <Flannel> WFPKHC: Ubuntu doesn't use the root account, it uses sudo instead.
[01:44] <wjon> WFPKHC: I'm pretty sure you can set a root password with 'sudo passwd' if you're desperate
[01:44] <velaur> does ubuntu studio have the software area like ubuntu does?
[01:44] <WFPKHC> ok
[01:44] <WFPKHC> im reading up on it now
[01:44] <Chaos_Zero> am i the only one that got that refrence
[01:44] <Chaos_Zero> more spelling fails
[01:45] <Ben64> you should never need a root password
[01:45] <wjon> you can 'sudo -i' to get a root enviroment too
[01:45] <xangua> velaur: they use the same software, both are ubuntu
[01:45] <Chaos_Zero> iptables ne1?
[01:45] <velaur> ok
[01:46] <Chaos_Zero> need....to..solve..problem
[01:47] <WFPKHC> k - thank you for input
[01:47] <blahblah_> ya, most of my problems are lack of knowlege
[01:48] <kdog> I have a MacBook Pro running precise and I did the updates and now it's freezing within minutes of logging in. Its looking like it might be something with the USB because the screen keeps updating but no keyboard or mouse.
[01:49] <Chaos_Zero> you may think you have escaped escott, but ill be back. mark my words
[01:49] <OY1R> q: why cant i see a prolific usb<>serial gps device with lsusb ?
[01:52] <sancas> ok i have [SeatDefaults] in my /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf and this run if i select ubuntu on the grub
[01:52] <WFPKHC> what gui does ubuntu 12 use is it gnome?
[01:52] <WFPKHC> gnome 3?
[01:53] <sancas> and now i have another [xbmc] for example... and i want to add xbmc to grub and if i select it them the pc do the [xbmc] options
[01:53] <sancas> anyone know what can i do?
[01:54] <dabor> WFPKHC, gnome 3.4
[01:54] <dabor> WFPKHC, unity 5.12
[01:56] <Htbrdd> .
[01:57] <blahblah_> could i run windows in a vm like when i run lunx in windows with virtual pc?
[01:58] <optraz> hello , my sounds does not work in ubuntu again. i have did sudo alsa force-reload; and check the speaker volume is up through alsamixer. i have also check the sound card module is loaded. the soundcard is loaded using aplay -l . anyone know how?
[01:58] <robotti^_> Hello!
[01:58] <robotti^_> I have problem with long network latency times
[01:58] <robotti^_> 100ms
[01:58] <robotti^_> and it is cycling 1-100ms
[01:58] <robotti^_> like counting from 100ms to 1ms
[01:58] <robotti^_> and it starts again
[01:59] <robotti^_> why it does that?
[01:59] <can> hello, i just made a security upgrade in the server, and now the server wont assign the previous address
[01:59] <genii-around> robotti^_: Does ifconfig show a lot of collisions or errors on the adapter which is the one being used?
[02:02] <blahblah_> hard to believe my linux wifi usb driver works better than the windows driver since the manufacturer doesnt offer a linux driver
[02:02] <cgag> simple question i think:  how do i check which version of something will be installed by a package
[02:02] <robotti^_> genii-around: and other computers open files very slowly over samba
[02:02] <cgag> like if i were to do apt-get install clojure
[02:02] <robotti^_> genii-around: buffering
[02:02] <cgag> how do i first see which version of clojure i'm going to get
[02:03] <robotti^_> genii-around: I have gigabyte lan
[02:03] <robotti^_> genii-around: How I can check that info?
[02:03] <genii-around> robotti^_: You still have not, however,  answered my question.
[02:03] <robotti^_> genii-around: but I do not know how to check that thing from ifconfig
[02:04] <robotti^_> genii-around:           RX packets:3203820 errors:0 dropped:19 overruns:0 frame:0
[02:04] <genii-around> robotti^_: Just in Terminal to issue: ifconfig
[02:04] <robotti^_> Ah there
[02:05] <kdog> cgag: If you have aptitude, you can see the versions before install.
[02:05] <kdog> Cgag
[02:05] <kdog> cgag: aptitude is a command line app
[02:06] <Axeman> hi - just setup unbuntu server today.. i'd like to change the name of the account i created at install time... is that possible?
[02:06] <blahblah_> a cool ap name would be faptitude
[02:06] <robotti^_> genii-around: what about that?
[02:07] <robotti^_> genii-around: I have also ethernet on motherboard
[02:08] <newbie|2> stra
[02:08] <robotti^_> genii-around: is my network card bad?
[02:08] <genii-around> robotti^_: It shows that the problem is not caused by transmission errors or data collisions. So then probably the problem lays on one of the endpoints. Like for instance the machine sending the data requested is bogging down on a cycle which makes the response times go from 100-1 and back again
[02:09] <genii-around> robotti^_: This can happen with large files streaming, it grabs so much off the disk (when it slows down on responding) fills the cache/buffer and sends (when it speeds up)
[02:10] <Htbrdd> ?
[02:10] <robotti^_> genii-around: but why I have such a big ping?
[02:10] <riddlebox> is there a way to save my settings to only show me local apps in the filter?
[02:10] <robotti^_> genii-around: My friend does not have this probem
[02:10] <robotti^_> problem
[02:10] <robotti^_> and it does work in windows
[02:11] <robotti^_> I am going to test  it again in windows
[02:11] <genii-around> robotti^_: Is this cycle of fast to slow the same no matter where you ping? Like if you ping some machine close to you on the internet, does the same cycle show?
[02:11] <robotti^_> genii-around: yes
[02:12] <genii-around> robotti^_: Is the router/switch which connects your computers capable of the speeds your adapters are capable of?
[02:12] <robotti^_> genii-around: I am going to give two pastebins
[02:12] <blahblah_> i would love to what ifconfig looks like with ipv6, not working/available yet?
[02:13]  * genii-around makes more coffee and awaits pastebins
[02:13] <robotti^_> genii-around: I have netgear 3700, it is 680Mhz mips. gigabyte admin switch
[02:13] <robotti^_> genii-around: it should work
[02:14] <robotti^_> genii-around: http://pastebin.com/w1X5dXnk
[02:15] <genii-around> robotti^_: Beyond the switch, are the machines using a router which is their gateway?
[02:15] <blahblah_> is there any generic to site you can ping for testing?
[02:16] <robotti^_> genii-around: I have wndr3700, it has router and switch on it
[02:16] <robotti^_> it is openwrt device
[02:16] <genii-around> robotti^_:  Ah, OK
[02:16] <robotti^_> I have 100Mbit/s connectiong
[02:16] <KRomo> anyone know if an old ipod firewire cable can sync an ipad?
[02:17] <robotti^_> and from running speedtest from wireless device, tablet
[02:17] <blahblah_> can I borrow $1000, you seem to be rich
[02:17] <robotti^_> I got 11ms
[02:17] <wolfgang> how do i get windows cmd for ubuntu?
[02:17] <wolfgang> anyone know?
[02:18] <wolfgang> Hello?
[02:18] <wolfgang> Can anyone here me?
[02:18] <wolfgang> *hear
[02:18] <genii-around> wolfgang: Possibly clarify "windows cmd"
[02:18] <JoseeAntonioR> wolfgang: You mean, a Terminal? Ctrl+Alt+T
[02:18] <robotti^_> genii-around: downloadspeed is about 22Mbps
[02:18] <blahblah_> hehe, what is patience?
[02:18] <wolfgang> the command prompt widows has
[02:18] <robotti^_> genii-around: and upload 23Mbps over wifi
[02:19] <genii-around> robotti^_: There seems reports of ping issues with that model+openwrt
[02:19] <gr33n7007h> fdisk -l
[02:19] <wolfgang> can i get it on ubuntu?
[02:19] <genii-around> robotti^_: https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=27820 for instance
[02:19] <bdfoster> blahblah_, youve got 11ms to tell me why i should give you $1000
[02:19] <bdfoster> times up
[02:19] <robotti^_> genii-around: http://pastebin.com/NytvrgDk
[02:19] <lime_1> I'm looking for a terminal command that schedules for a command to run 1 once every minute for the next 10 minutes.  Any ideas?
[02:19] <rafaelCN> hi all
[02:20] <blahblah_> so i can eat 3x a day instead of 1
[02:20] <genii-around> robotti^_: If you plug one machine of the network directly to another machine of the network bypassing the switch and ping each other, does the same symptom persist?
[02:20] <JoseeAntonioR> wolfgang: You can get a Terminal, using Ctrl+Alt+T
[02:20] <wolfgang> Not what i meant
[02:20] <robotti^_> genii-around: Maybe I am going to update firmware for that box
[02:20] <Htbrdd> >
[02:21] <wolfgang> the command prompt windows uses
[02:21] <wolfgang> The batch files and such from windows
[02:21] <Htbrdd> >
[02:21] <Htbrdd> j
[02:21] <blahblah_> do many trolls come here?
[02:22] <wolfgang> That code i'm familiar with and would like to continue using it
[02:22] <Htbrdd> j
[02:22] <wolfgang> do you know how to get it?
[02:22] <genii-around> robotti^_: I suspect it is some openwrt issue you are having that affects the wired connections
[02:22] <Htbrdd> k
[02:22] <wolfgang> Do you know?
[02:23] <blahblah_> we wont know until you ask the right question
[02:23] <genii-around> robotti^_:  To know if it is the computers or the switch though, I would as previously indicated connect two of the machines directly to each other and see if you get same symptoms
[02:23] <JoseeAntonioR> wolfgang: As I told you, press Ctrl+Alt+T
[02:23] <crazybrain> how to save streaming videos in Ubuntu?
[02:23] <wolfgang> N
[02:25] <wolfgang> No that is not what i mean. what i want is like that but it's the one used on windows im familiar with the code. can i get the windows terminal aka cmd aka command prompt
[02:26] <blahblah_> i heard they have a windows emulator called Wine?
[02:26] <wolfgang> well i have that
[02:26] <wolfgang> it does not have the cmd i dont think though
[02:27] <wolfgang> Does anyone here know how?
[02:28] <rafaelCN> sorry
[02:28] <wolfgang> by
[02:28] <genii-around> wolfgang: There is not the cmd.exe in linux that you are thinking of. Ubuntu uses a terminal
[02:28] <blahblah_> would installing windows in a vm work?
[02:28] <wolfgang> i know that genii
[02:28] <sacarlson> wolfgang: try <ctl><alt>t  that will bring up a terminal
[02:28] <wolfgang> but can i get one
[02:29] <wolfgang> not terminal
[02:29] <wolfgang> cmd
[02:29] <wolfgang> from windows
[02:29] <sacarlson> wolfgang: we call it terminal that will bring up a command prompt as you are used to in windows
[02:29] <genii-around> wolfgang: If you are running windows inside of a vm or so, probably.
[02:30] <genii-around> wolfgang: But it will only do stuff to the virtualized Windows it is running from
[02:30] <wolfgang> what is vm
[02:30] <sacarlson> wolfgang: oh your running from windows then you might want something like putty
[02:30] <wolfgang> im on ubuntu
[02:30] <wolfgang> i dont have widows anymore
[02:30] <Htbrdd> j
[02:30] <rafaelCN> virtual machine?
[02:30] <wolfgang> oh
[02:30] <wolfgang> how do i get that?
[02:31] <genii-around> wolfgang: The burning question i first would want to ask is... why?
[02:31] <genii-around> ( you would want to run cmd.exe inside of Ubuntu )
[02:31] <wolfgang> why because im used to windows
[02:31] <sacarlson> genii-around: wolfgang: yes good question why what is your goal?
[02:31] <rafaelCN> trouble
[02:32] <wolfgang> i started coding with it and i would like to continue
[02:32] <wolfgang> so i would like to get it again
[02:32] <Lunar_Lander> good night!
[02:32] <blahblah_> do you do anything with cmd besides type dir cd?
[02:32] <wolfgang> my hard drive corupted so i decided screw it im getting linux
[02:33] <robotti^_> genii-around: I rebooted my computer and ping time is normal
[02:33] <B0101> hi there, i would like to install 64 bit ubuntu on my system. I know that my processor is a 64 bit processor, but ubuntu does not install (i am installing from boot using CD). what can i do?
[02:34] <wolfgang> So can i get it on here?
[02:34] <wolfgang> the same one from windows?
[02:34] <chu> No.
[02:34] <wolfgang> Ok thank you
[02:35] <blahblah_> dont even know what you would use cmd for?
[02:35] <wolfgang> Also how do i get itunes?
[02:35] <Chaos_Zero> is escott back yet
[02:35] <chu> wolfgang: You can't.
[02:35] <wolfgang> cmd for coding
[02:35] <wolfgang> itunes?
[02:35] <sacarlson> B0101: I've seen some posts about some new motherboards that think they have a 32bit processor even with a 64bit proc installed
[02:35] <Chaos_Zero> fail
[02:35] <genii-around> wolfgang: You can run dosbox and get your command prompt that way. But and bat file or so on you write will be absolutely useless for doing anything in linux
[02:36] <wolfgang> what is dosbox?
[02:36] <wolfgang> where do i get it?
[02:36] <genii-around> !info dosbox
[02:36] <Chaos_Zero> a box with dos in it
[02:36] <sacarlson> B0101: as I didn't see a solution I guess to get it to work was to install the 32bit version of ubuntu
[02:36] <blahblah_> that will fun to learn assembly
[02:36] <wolfgang> So where do i get it?
[02:36] <genii-around> wolfgang: I would highly recommend to read up on shell scripting instead, however ( most linux use bash )
[02:37] <genii-around> wolfgang: From the Ubuntu software Cenre
[02:37] <genii-around> *Centre
[02:37] <Chaos_Zero> assembly is too annoying for 99% of uses
[02:37] <wolfgang> Ok thank you
[02:37] <Chaos_Zero> but it does teach you how a computer works
[02:37] <wolfgang> also where do i read up on shell at?
[02:37] <Madpilot> ubottu, bash | wolfgang
[02:37] <B0101> sacarlson: ok, thank you for your help
[02:38] <luhur> help me
[02:38] <Chaos_Zero> ok
[02:38] <Darkenvy> Can someone help me install oracle java on ubuntu10.04 server?
[02:38] <wolfgang> ubottu um...
[02:38] <bazhang> luhur with what
[02:38] <t0ntin> Hi, all. I'm trying to install ubuntu using an installation DVD. I'm hoping someone can tell me how to do it by looking at these pictures. Can't figure it out. https://picasaweb.google.com/boyaqo/June82012
[02:38] <chu> luhur: Hello, what seems to be the issue?
[02:38] <Darkenvy> Oracle is new to me, Ive always isntalled sun
[02:38] <Chaos_Zero> arnt thye like..the same
[02:38] <wolfgang> Thank you
[02:38] <Madpilot> wolfgang, see the URL at the end of what the bot just posted for terminal on Ubuntu basics and links to more
[02:38] <bazhang> !java > Darkenvy
[02:38] <blahblah_> solaris 11, lolwut
[02:39] <luhur> is there yahoomesangger in ubuntu?
[02:39] <wolfgang> ok Thanks
[02:39] <wolfgang> going afk
[02:39] <Chaos_Zero> mayhaps someone can help me set up iptables for two seperate connections, one of them being a network ridge
[02:39] <Chaos_Zero> bridge*
[02:39] <moes> !java > moes
[02:40] <bazhang> luhur, use pidgin
[02:40] <luhur> how to install pidgin
[02:40] <sacarlson> t0ntin: if /dev/sda2 is where you want to install ubuntu just delete that partition and start the install over again,  it will auto see the spare space and ask to use it then just say yes
[02:40] <bazhang> luhur, from the ubuntu software center
[02:40] <Chaos_Zero> do i also get a private message
[02:40] <Chaos_Zero> ?
[02:40] <blahblah_> send me a plane ticket, i'll help
[02:40] <bazhang> blahblah_, stop that
[02:40] <luhur> ok, wait a minute
[02:41] <Darkenvy> bazhang, Ive been here for the last 3 days working on getting it installed. I started over (this time makes it 3 times) but I neglectfully didnt record me logs
[02:41] <Chaos_Zero> or i could just giv you my ssh login =D
[02:41] <sacarlson> t0ntin: I assume you backup any data in /dev/sda2 as it will be destroyed on ubuntu install in that case
[02:42] <t0ntin> sacarlson, I am using windows, and would like to install ubuntu alongside windows
[02:42] <Chaos_Zero> one of those
[02:42] <blahblah_> that dual boot
[02:42] <StrontiumCat> hi guys, i'm looking for an alternative to avidemux, can anyone point me towards something that might be similar to it?
[02:43] <Chaos_Zero> or use virtulbox
[02:43] <sacarlson> t0ntin: well you need a spare partition to install ubuntu, where do you intend to install it?
[02:43] <blahblah_> where you choose either os when you turn on computer
[02:43] <funnyhaha> i need help figuring out how to get the right patches for my wireless card for packet injection and then patching my driver
[02:44] <t0ntin> sacarlson, I assumed this installer would create the necessary partitions for me
[02:44] <StrontiumCat> anyone?
[02:44] <sacarlson> t0ntin: no it can't create an empty partition you have to decide what space to allow it to use
[02:44] <Chaos_Zero> or you could use vrtualbox
[02:45] <funnyhaha> yes hes right
[02:45] <funnyhaha> vbox
[02:45] <blahblah_> or that other thing where linux is a giant file on the windows partition
[02:45] <genii-around> wubi
[02:45] <Chaos_Zero> lol
[02:45] <funnyhaha> vbox is free
[02:46] <t0ntin> sacarlson, is it possible to create a partition off the only large one? That is, where windows is installed?
[02:47] <Darkenvy> There is way too much information on how to install java and they all differ. cant I just add a repository and install it that way?
[02:47] <luhur> omg my openoffice can't type from right to left, how is it
[02:47] <sacarlson> t0ntin: you would have to break the only large partition if that's the space you want to provide.  to do that you would have to repartition or resize partitions
[02:47] <Chaos_Zero> again, or you would use vbox
[02:48] <unodx> anybody know of an open source to send text messages ?
[02:48] <bazhang> Darkenvy, what version of ubuntu
[02:48] <wolfgang> Hay Geni-around or any one else does virtual machine take up alot of hard drive space?
[02:48] <blahblah_> if you just want to try out ubuntu, then wubi or live cd is good?
[02:48] <Darkenvy> ubuntu 10.04LST server
[02:48] <t0ntin> sacarlson, i'm trying to do that with a program called minitool partition wizard for windows, but don't see how :(
[02:48] <Chaos_Zero> well
[02:48] <Chaos_Zero> you can have it go faster and take a fixed amont
[02:48] <Chaos_Zero> or go slower and add to the partition as you use up space
[02:48] <Darkenvy> All these methods look like visual ways to install it and all I have is terminal
[02:48] <Chaos_Zero> if i recall
[02:49] <olskolirc> you buncha hackers! :-)
[02:49] <sacarlson> t0ntin: well that's outside ubuntu so I would look for help on google or other to resize partitions in windowsw
[02:49] <wolfgang> Will vm hurt my comp? i only have 1 gig of ram
[02:49] <wolfgang> Any one know?
[02:49] <t0ntin> sacarlson, ok, thank you.
[02:49] <blahblah_> ya, vm will be painful with 1g
[02:49] <Chaos_Zero> you can tel it how much ram the virtual machine uses
[02:50] <wolfgang> Where do i get it?
[02:50] <Chaos_Zero> google
[02:50] <bazhang> Chaos_Zero, dont suggest that here
[02:50] <wolfgang> and if i close out does it stop using that ram?
[02:50] <bazhang> !google | Chaos_Zero
[02:50] <sacarlson> t0ntin: in the end you will want an empty partition that is at least 10 gb in size
[02:50] <bazhang> Chaos_Zero, just say nothing if you dont know
[02:51] <bazhang> wolfgang, vbox wont be worth running with that tiny amount of ram
[02:51] <wolfgang> ok
[02:51] <glitsj16> Darkenvy: have you checked https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/java yet?
[02:51] <wolfgang> Thank you
[02:51] <Madpilot> Uh, Unity won't let you move full-screen apps to another desktop. Meh.
[02:51] <wolfgang> Will getting 8 gigs hurt my computer. what else will  have to upgrade?
[02:52] <Chaos_Zero> you have to be 64 bit
[02:52] <bazhang> wolfgang, more ram is always better
[02:52] <Chaos_Zero> os / proc/ mobo
[02:52] <Chaos_Zero> otherwise it caps it at like 3.2 gb no matter how much you have
[02:52] <wolfgang> Yeah i know more ram is better but will it cause other problems if i add that much?
[02:52] <bazhang> !pae | Chaos_Zero
[02:52] <wolfgang> i heard it wont work without a better power supply
[02:52] <Madpilot> wolfgang, not if your motherboard supports it, no.
[02:53] <wolfgang> how do i know if my mother board supports it?
[02:53] <bazhang> wolfgang, thats more of a hardware question, not really ubuntu support related. it wont hurt, however
[02:53] <wolfgang> However?
[02:53] <Chaos_Zero> bazhang, maybe i mixed up people, bu i thought he was duel booting windows
[02:53] <blahblah_> motherboards come with manuals
[02:53] <Madpilot> wolfgang, put the exact model name/number of your motherboard into google, you should be able to find the specs fairly easily
[02:54] <wolfgang> How do i find model name lol?
[02:54] <bazhang> Chaos_Zero, pae supports more than 3.2, which has nothing to do with dual booting or not
[02:54] <wolfgang> this was pre made
[02:54] <wolfgang> about 8 years old
[02:54] <bazhang> wolfgang, sudo lshw and pastebin for us to see
[02:54] <Chaos_Zero> i understand, but then when he runs the windows side if its not 4 bit he will be losing out
[02:54] <Madpilot> bazhang, note that 12.04 seems to enabled pae automatically; I have the pae kernel and never did any special setup for it
[02:54] <bazhang> !paste | wolfgang
[02:54] <Darkenvy> "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:user/ppa-name" command not found 0_0
[02:55] <wolfgang> sudo what?
[02:55] <bazhang> wolfgang, sudo lshw
[02:55] <wolfgang> sudo 1shw
[02:55] <wolfgang> ?
[02:55] <Madpilot> wolfgang, "sudo lshw" w/o quotes - that' s an L
[02:55] <bazhang> wolfgang, thats a L not a 1
[02:55] <Madpilot> means "show hardware"
[02:55] <wolfgang> sudo lshq
[02:56] <bazhang> wolfgang, try again
[02:56] <wolfgang> "sudo lshw"
[02:56] <zombifier> yep
[02:56] <Madpilot> wolfgang, in a terminal, not here
[02:56] <wolfgang> oh ok
[02:56] <Darkenvy> I cant add-apt-repository. command not found
[02:57] <wolfgang> PCI (sysfs)
[02:57] <bazhang> Darkenvy, why are you adding java from a ppa
[02:57] <wolfgang> oh hold up
[02:57] <bazhang> wolfgang, dont paste here in the channel
[02:57] <Darkenvy> because I was just directed there!
[02:57] <wolfgang> oh paste where?
[02:57] <bazhang> wolfgang, paste.ubuntu.com      <-------
[02:57] <bazhang> Darkenvy, I gave you a java link long before that
[02:58] <wolfgang> um
[02:58] <wolfgang> what
[02:58] <Darkenvy> Look the last few days has been an absolute nightmear bouncing between 3 modes of help channels
[02:58] <Darkenvy> will this work? :http://www.duinsoft.nl/packages.php?t=en
[02:58] <wolfgang> paste.ubuntu.com
[02:58] <bazhang> wolfgang, it's a website. copy and paste the lines there
[02:58] <wolfgang> oh ok
[02:59] <bazhang> Darkenvy, go the oracle website if you need the closed one. get it from the package manager if you want the open one
[02:59] <Darkenvy> I am using terminal
[02:59] <bazhang> Darkenvy, reading the link I gave you would tell you that
[03:00] <Darkenvy> also the oracle website is a nightmear. I have no idea what is the correct thing to download. nor how to install it
[03:00] <bazhang> Darkenvy, there are browsers you can use for that
[03:00] <wolfgang> i pasted there now what?
[03:00] <wolfgang> dl as text?
[03:00] <Darkenvy> which link? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java ?? because I did and that lead me to http://www.duinsoft.nl/packages.php?t=en
[03:00] <bazhang> wolfgang, give us the url
[03:00] <wolfgang> oh ok
[03:00] <Madpilot> wolfgang, give us the pastebin URL
[03:00] <wolfgang> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1031454/
[03:01] <Darkenvy> "there are browsers you can use for that" I dont know what your implying
[03:01] <wolfgang> brb gota go to bath room
[03:02] <PlowRox> prolly an easy fix... yet it eludes me.. how do I get the speaker/sound icon back? in the upper right corner? Ever since the upgrade to v12.04 its been gone...
[03:03] <wolfgang> back
[03:03] <Darkenvy> just answer me this: will this work? http://christiansons.net/mike/blog/2012/03/oracle-java-7-on-ubuntu-11-10-12-04/
[03:03] <Darkenvy> it seems like the easiest way to install java. Java is just a nightmear
[03:03] <wolfgang> so Now what
[03:03] <Darkenvy> I followed your link bazhang but I got to that page form that
[03:04] <nasuga> Darkenvy : why not just apt-get install?
[03:04] <wolfgang> Hay anyone here
[03:04] <wolfgang> that you know
[03:04] <Darkenvy> nasuga I would love that!
[03:04] <Darkenvy> how can I do that?
[03:04] <wolfgang> bazhang you here?
[03:05] <wolfgang> is ubottu a person?
[03:05] <nasuga> Darkenvy : If you're running Ubuntu, open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install javaversionhere
[03:05] <Darkenvy> thats less helpful ^
[03:05] <wolfgang> ubottu are you a person?
[03:05] <nasuga> Darkenvy : If you want to find out what versions are availible, just do apt-cache search java
[03:05] <Darkenvy> it has to be oracle java, not openjdk
[03:05] <wolfgang> lol
[03:05] <wolfgang> How can you answer like that then?
[03:05] <nasuga> Darkenvy : You can install sun java from Ubuntu repositories.
[03:06] <nasuga> Darkenvy : Using apt-get ...
[03:06] <wolfgang> i have java thingy
[03:06] <nasuga> thingy?
[03:06] <bazhang> nasuga, not anymore you cannot
[03:06] <Darkenvy> I used to apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[03:06] <gmclean> hi. i set my wireless connection to be available to all users and to connect automatically yet i am prompted for the wireless password and must manually connect each reboot.
[03:06] <gmclean> any clues?
[03:07] <wolfgang> ubottu are you realy a bot?
[03:07] <Darkenvy> okay I want to pay someone now to install java for me, but knowing my luck ide get someone leaving something malicious in my system
[03:07] <wolfgang> ubottu you smeel
[03:07] <nasuga> Bazhang : No? They removed it? I wasn't aware.
[03:07] <bazhang> wolfgang, stop doing that
[03:07] <wolfgang> what?
[03:07] <wolfgang> stop what?
[03:07] <bazhang> wolfgang, playing with the bot
[03:07] <wolfgang> ok
[03:07] <sacarlson> Darkenvy: that last link looks fine, didn't it work?
[03:07] <wolfgang> also i know how to get java
[03:07] <wolfgang> go to terminal
[03:08] <wolfgang> then
[03:08] <wolfgang> you there yet>
[03:08] <wolfgang> ?
[03:08] <Darkenvy> which link sacarlson? http://www.duinsoft.nl/packages.php?t=en ?
[03:08] <Darkenvy> or http://christiansons.net/mike/blog/category/java/ ?
[03:08] <sacarlson> Darkenvy: http://christiansons.net/mike/blog/2012/03/oracle-java-7-on-ubuntu-11-10-12-04/
[03:08] <wolfgang> bazhang hay
[03:08] <wolfgang> did you look at the paste thing?
[03:08] <sacarlson> Darkenvy: unless you want java6 that I think most people use
[03:08] <nasuga> Darkenvy: is there a reason you don't/can't use openjdk instead/
[03:09] <Darkenvy> my add-apt-repository command doesnt work
[03:09] <wolfgang> bazhag did you look at the paste thing?
[03:09] <glitsj16> Darkenvy: sudo apt-get install python-software-properties to get that command working
[03:09] <wolfgang> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1031454/
[03:09] <sacarlson> Darkenvy: did you use sudo?
[03:09] <wolfgang> anyone there?
[03:09] <Darkenvy> yes im hosting a minecraft server and the community swears by oracle not openjdk. people running openjdk claim to have way more crashes
[03:09] <Darkenvy> sacarlson, yes I did use sudo
[03:09] <Darkenvy> command not found
[03:10] <wolfgang> bazhang you there?
[03:10] <Darkenvy> okay glitsj16
[03:10] <nasuga> Darkenvy: I run a Minecraft server on FreeBSD using OpenJDK, no crashes yet :P
[03:10] <bazhang> wolfgang, whats the issue
[03:10] <Darkenvy> you on espernet #bukkit?
[03:10] <wolfgang> I was wondering about my mother board
[03:10] <nasuga> Darkenvy: maybe incompatible plugins?
[03:10] <wolfgang> and if it can hold 8 gigs of ram
[03:10] <bazhang> wolfgang, what about it
[03:10] <sacarlson> Darkenvy: show me the command line that didn't work?
[03:11] <bazhang> wolfgang, try ##hardware , this is Ubuntu OS support, not hardware
[03:11] <Darkenvy> okay too many conversations now. if you are refering to minecraft, whisper me. this is purely java (keeping it simple)
[03:11] <bazhang> wolfgang, /join ##hardware and ask there
[03:11] <wolfgang> Ok thank you
[03:11] <wolfgang> Also how do you do that red letter thing?
[03:11] <bazhang> wolfgang, thats when someone highlights your name, in xchat
[03:12] <sacarlson> Darkenvy: I just did sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java  and it worked fine so what did you type?
[03:12] <wolfgang> ?
[03:12] <bazhang> sacarlson, he's on 10.04
[03:12] <wolfgang> what do you mean high light?
[03:12] <fling> Is it down only for me? > http://peshkovmaks.ru/
[03:12] <sacarlson> bazhang: so am I
[03:12] <bazhang> wolfgang, see your name there?
[03:12] <Darkenvy> oh I installed pythod-software-properties and I got the add-apt-repo command working. it DID say "command not found"
[03:12] <wolfgang> ya
[03:12] <bazhang> wolfgang, thats a highlight
[03:12] <wolfgang> bazhang, like this?
[03:13] <gr33n7007h> fling, its up!
[03:13] <genii-around> fling: Works here.
[03:13] <bazhang> Darkenvy, what exact repo did you put in there
[03:13] <bazhang> wolfgang, yes
[03:13] <fling> gr33n7007h: genii-around: thanks
[03:13] <Darkenvy> add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
[03:13] <Darkenvy> im installing java now
[03:13] <wolfgang> bazhang, yay ok by im going to hard war junk now
[03:13] <sacarlson> Darkenvy: see if you read the simple instructions it does work
[03:13] <gmclean> hello. every time my wireless disconnects or i reboot, i must manually select my essid and re-enter the password even though in the wireless settings i have selected "connect automatically" and "available to all users" for one of the now MANY connections (i have also tried deleting them all and starting over). any clues?
[03:13] <wolfgang> bazhang, how do i get to hard ware?
[03:14] <hegemon> #warsong
[03:15] <Darkenvy> sacarlson, the snide comments are not nessisary. I am bombarded by a littany of methods to install java. all complicated, all various version and all from various dates dating back to 2008
[03:15] <bazhang> Darkenvy, people are volunteers. no one is being snide to you
[03:15] <wolfgang_> bazhang, how do i get to hardware support?
[03:16] <Darkenvy> if this 3 line commands work I am personally sticking it in your face to shove it beause you are just rude and unhelpful. I have researched and researched for not just a few minutes but for the last 2 days. check public logs. ive been here a while for th elast few days
[03:16] <bazhang> wolfgang_, /join ##hardware
[03:16] <bazhang> Darkenvy, lost the attitude
[03:17] <Darkenvy> yes bazhang, I get this but I do not like being pushed aside as someone who doesnt 'google' first. I get that most of the people you get can be solved by a ubottu command
[03:17] <Darkenvy> it is very difficult to explain that you need more assistance than that :)
[03:17] <bazhang> Darkenvy, the links given say it very clearly.
[03:17] <wolfgang_> bazhang, no one in hardware will answer
[03:17] <bazhang> wolfgang_, then be patient
[03:17] <Darkenvy> it wasnt too clear. I was given a list of many pages each with different methods. go read them.
[03:17] <wolfgang_> bazhang, EW PATIENTS?
[03:18] <wolfgang_> bazhang, fine
[03:19] <KRomo> omfg
[03:19] <P-Chan> jrdnn, hi
[03:19] <blahblah_> wonder what will happen if I replace http with https in the chat windows, success?
[03:19] <Darkenvy> http://pastebin.com/xGWEjQmf read that paragraph. it sounds like one long tangent of one method to install. however I think it is 3 different methods?
[03:19] <KRomo> just plogged in an old ipod to my ubuntu box and it operates as a music controller
[03:19] <KRomo> click wheel controls audio in ubuntu
[03:19] <KRomo> play, pause, next track, etc
[03:19] <P-Chan> I not solved the problem after that ubuntu can't start x so i installed ubuntu agai
[03:20] <jrdnn> Hi P-Chan
[03:20] <P-Chan> jrdnn, Well dude that solution said by you not solved
[03:21] <P-Chan> I instaled ubuntu again
[03:21] <P-Chan> With MATE because MATE in the only desktop environtment that works fine here
[03:21] <P-Chan> xfce no, lxde no
[03:21] <sacarlson> Darkenvy: I'm not sure why but I can't read your pastebin.com with message his website/URL has been blocked until further notice either pursuant to Court orders
[03:22] <blahblah_> yay, this connection is encrypted
[03:22] <Darkenvy> whos pastebins?
[03:22] <sacarlson> does anyone else get this error from pastebin.com or is this just thailand?
[03:22] <gmclean> hello. every time my wireless disconnects or i reboot, i must manually select my essid and re-enter the password even though in the wireless settings i have selected "connect automatically" and "available to all users" for one of the now MANY connections (i have also tried deleting them all and starting over). any clues?
[03:23] <sacarlson> Darkenvy: this link you gave us I can't read http://pastebin.com/xGWEjQmf  does anyone else get an error on this link?
[03:23] <trism> sacarlson: works fine here
[03:23] <sacarlson> trism: thanks it must be my ISP then
[03:23] <jrdnn> Sorry P-Chan :(
[03:24] <swc> works here too
[03:24] <P-Chan> jrdnn, ok you're welcome
[03:24] <Darkenvy> the pastebin is of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java which bombards you with many links. each has a different method and I have struggled installing java for 2 days now. its not that useful. thats all I was pointing out with the pastebin
[03:24] <Elnetotaca> oh WOW, lots of ppl on this channel!
[03:24] <Elnetotaca> I LOVE IT
[03:24] <P-Chan> Elnetotaca, are you a black hat?
[03:25] <blahblah_> biggest chat channel here
[03:26] <blahblah_> thats visible
[03:26] <onceagain> im having trouble installing ubuntu desktop 64bit. the dvd starts booting and a spash screen appears, then vanishes, then the dvd spins for a while and there is hdd activity. then i hear the ubuntu drums sound but all there is during this whole time is a blinking curser at the top left of the screen that persists forever
[03:26] <xangua> Darkenvy: the instructions look very clear and easy to understand
[03:26] <blahblah_> how did I know?  /msg alis LIST * -min 500
[03:28] <blahblah_> gmclean: certain wifi is open, you had to type a password to get here?
[03:28] <wolfgang__> are
[03:28] <PlowRox> prolly an easy fix... yet it eludes me.. how do I get the speaker/sound icon back? in the upper right corner? Ever since the upgrade to v12.04 its been gone...
[03:28] <wolfgang__> sorry gota go be back latter
[03:28] <wolfgang__> bazhang, sorry bazhang
[03:29] <Darkenvy> xangua, this is only half of what im stating. I got java installed. All I am trying to say is when someone is asking for further help to install java, why not try to asist them instead of throwing more links at them? Java is a nightmear to install (since always)

[03:36] <Elnetotaca> nice talking to you guys, gotta go find another channel
[03:37] <bazhang> WFPKHC, youi mean ubuntu
[03:37] <xangua> WFPKHC: sudo apt-get install xchat
[03:37]  * WFPKHC blushes at his epic fail
[03:37] <bazhang> sudo apt-get install xchat WFPKHC
[03:37] <Elnetotaca> but like Arnold said couple times;  I'll be back!!!
[03:37] <bazhang> !apt-get | WFPKHC
[03:37] <xangua> WFPKHC: and you'll also want xchat-gnome-indicator for better Unity integration if you use it
[03:38] <bazhang> !find xchat-indicator
[03:38] <bazhang> xangua, you mean the above
[03:38] <xangua> bazhang: didn't found xchat indicator jum
[03:38] <bazhang> xchat-gnome is a different irc client xangua
[03:39] <xangua> indeed, thoug the indicator worker for both
[03:39] <bazhang> !info xchat-indicator | xangua
[03:39] <zivester> anyone have a recommendation for an ultrabook to buy this year? zenbook prime or similar?
[03:40] <xangua> bazhang: yes you make your point, how about tell WFPKHC instead of me¿¿
[03:40] <WFPKHC> brb on ubuntu
[03:40] <bazhang> zivester, to run ubuntu? check the hcl and ubuntuforums with make and model
[03:41] <bazhang> !hcl | zivester
[03:42] <WFPKHC> im here
[03:42] <blahblah_> is there some way to suppress the join and quit lines in webchat?
[03:42] <xangua> blahblah_: depends of your irc client
[03:43] <bazhang> blahblah_, there's a button top left iirc
[03:43] <zivester> ya, im not too fond of the official list... its not really all that telling either... I've been running it on my X61 tablet for 4 years and its flawless
[03:43] <blahblah_> oh, forgot to say client, oops
[03:43] <bazhang> blahblah_, the folks in #freenode know for sure
[03:43] <WFPKHC> does anyone here have an nvidia card with dual monitors? im trying to setup dual monitors but the grey bar at the top wont go away
[03:43] <bazhang> WFPKHC, with xrandr?
[03:44] <WFPKHC> um - no idea i only installed ubunutu not long ago about 1 hour
[03:44] <bazhang> !xrandr | WFPKHC
[03:44] <BBerry76> hi all guys
[03:44] <chu> Hello BBerry76
[03:45]  * bberry is using a BlackBerry Runtime for Android Apps running Android 2.3.3 (2.0.1.30)
[03:45] <rickger> Hello, can someone help me figure out why ubuntu decided to create the default folders in the ecryptedfs out of nowhere
[03:46] <rickger> Basically, what happened was my USB3.0 port stopped working. I restarted the computer and ubuntu went back to it's desktop defaults, and certain folders were duplicated (and empty)
[03:46] <WFPKHC> why wont this command work "sudo aptitude install nginx"?
[03:47] <WFPKHC> https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-nginx-on-ubuntu-12-04-lts-precise-pangolin
[03:47] <xangua> WFPKHC: aptitude no longer comes preinstalled in ubuntu
[03:47] <bazhang> WFPKHC, aptitude needs to be installed first
[03:47] <rickger> I really have no idea what happened and the logs don't mention anything unusual happening at that time
[03:47] <P-Chan> I don't understand. XFCE, LXDE, KDE runs bad here but Gnome 2 and mate runs fine
[03:47] <bazhang> WFPKHC, just use apt-get instead, or install aptitude
[03:47] <WFPKHC> is there anyway for me to install nginx without installing aptitude?
[03:47] <bazhang> WFPKHC, yes, use apt-get
[03:48] <sacarlson> WFPKHC: sudo apt-get install nginx ;
[03:48] <WFPKHC> thank you =D
[03:48] <P-Chan> what is better apt-ge or aptitude?
[03:48] <randomDude> !better
[03:48] <bazhang> P-Chan, neither
[03:48] <rickger> I found out that ubuntu had created the default folders (Downloads, Documents, Music, etc..) in the .Private ecrypt folder.
[03:48] <sacarlson> P-Chan: well apt-ge don't work so aptitude is better
[03:48] <WFPKHC> is there something better then apt-get because it doesnt tell me how big the download is or its dependancies?
[03:49] <bazhang> P-Chan, mate and the like are unsupported PPA, did you have an actual ubuntu support question?
[03:49] <chu> Sure it does.
[03:49] <sacarlson> WFPKHC: you can use synaptic or the other gui that shows more stuf
[03:49] <rickger> IT caused those folders to be completely unaccessable until I deleted them from the .Private folder
[03:49] <randomDude> WFPKHC: apt-cache show-policy nginx
[03:49]  * WFPKHC sighs
[03:49] <bazhang> P-Chan, if you just wish to chit chat, #ubuntu-offtopic is the place NOT here
[03:49] <randomDude> rather : apt-cache policy nginx
[03:49] <nibalizer> arst/bu76
[03:50] <Threeseas> trying to get a scanner working but need /usr/lib/sane/libsane-gt68xx.a or libsane-gt68xx.so so where do I get these?
[03:50] <bazhang> Threeseas, using simplescan ?
[03:50] <smw> how do I re-enable ctrl+alt+backspace?
[03:50] <Threeseas> bazhang xsane
[03:50] <WFPKHC> what will "sudo /etc/init.d/nginx start"?
[03:51] <randomDude> WFPKHC: you can find out more in : man apt-cache
[03:51] <PlowRox> how do I get the speaker/sound icon back? in the upper right corner? Ever since the upgrade to v12.04 its been gone...
[03:51] <WFPKHC> ok t hank you for links
[03:51] <Jester86_Mobile> hey does anyone know of a transparent text editor or IDE.  Not just nano ran in terminal - I want to be able to watch a movie in the background and write code over top of it
[03:51] <bazhang> WFPKHC, check out upstart
[03:51] <bazhang> !upstart | WFPKHC
[03:51] <chu> Jester86_Mobile: GNU Emacs in a terminal/vim in a terminal?
[03:52] <WFPKHC> k thank you
[03:52] <rickger> Can anyone just tell me under what conditions will Ubuntu create the default /home folders? I really have no idea how this could of happened.
[03:53] <rickger> Or why it would create them in the ecryptfs
[03:53] <Jester86_Mobile> chu, that doesn't work does it?  I believe terminal only shows the desktop background when transparent - I don't believe it shows windows / applications that are open in the backdrop
[03:53] <zykotick9> wasn't there a !dontzap factoid for re-enabling ctrl+alt+backspace?  for smw.
[03:53] <dk5> After installing ubuntu on my laptop, I'm having a problem with my headphones. They work when I test the sound, but when I view something in a browser, there's no sound. Anyone have this problem?
[03:53] <bazhang> zykotick9, yep, deprecated, so removed
[03:54] <zykotick9> bazhang: thanks.
[03:54] <blake> Jester86_Mobile: Yes, it should should windows behind the terminal not just the background. At least mine does.
[03:54] <chu> Jester86_Mobile: I don't use transparency myself, so I couldn't tell you.
[03:55] <Jester86_Mobile> blake, how did you get that to work?  Mine only shows the background and negates any open window
[03:55] <sacarlson> rickger: when you create a new user you select if you want his /home/user dir to be encrytped,  this also is asked at first install of ubuntu for an admin account
[03:55] <Jester86_Mobile> wait a second...
[03:55] <smw> zykotick9, I just had a lock up and I miss ctrl+alt+backspace
[03:55] <Jester86_Mobile> now it seems to be working
[03:55] <Jester86_Mobile> wtf lol
[03:55] <blake> Jester86_Mobile: I'm on 12.04. It used to show just the desktop background in previous releases.
[03:55] <Jester86_Mobile> let me see if it will work with a flash video
[03:55] <Jester86_Mobile> yeah.. i just upgraded =)
[03:55] <Jester86_Mobile> this is awesome thanks blake
[03:56] <zykotick9> smw: alt+sysrq+k ?
[03:56] <Jester86_Mobile> this is awesome.  now I can continue to watch TED talks while coding some Arduino firmware lol
[03:56] <rickger> sacarlson, well then I have no clue what happened. Ubuntu just decided to remake those folders in the encrypfs
[03:56] <Jester86_Mobile> no need for dual monitors :)
[03:57] <smw> zykotick9, yay, I found it!
[03:57] <smw> zykotick9, what is that?
[03:57] <lwizardl> okay so I took the firefox update and now the bookmark all tabs option is no longer working. is there a fix ?
[03:57] <blake> Jester86_Mobile: I was pleased to discover that feature too. I'm so accustomed to it on my Mac.
[03:57] <sacarlson> rickger: there is a box to check in the user group gui that is used to select weather it's encyrpted or not
[03:58] <Jester86_Mobile> blake, I'm hoping some IDE allows this feature as well.  I currently use nano - does nano highlight syntax when programing?
[03:58] <WFPKHC> why wont this command work "sudo chkconfig --add nginx"
[03:58] <rickger> sacarlson, yeah but what I'm saying is that this user and it's encryptfs already existed. But ubuntu re-created the default folders in the home directory and the encrypfs even though they already existed
[03:58] <smw> zykotick9, heh, nice. But then I need to figure out how to enable the sysreq key
[03:58] <sacarlson> rickger: from an upgrade?  you can unencrypt the user or just create a new user that isn't encrypted and copy the /home/user to the new one
[03:58] <smw> zykotick9, and not guarantee x would restart ;-)
[03:59] <Jester86_Mobile> blake, it seems to be in ubuntu - now if only Arch were so easy to use ;)
[03:59] <Jester86_Mobile> thanks again blake - you have revolutionized my workflow process lol
[03:59] <smw> zykotick9, whatever, I found the setting :-)
[03:59] <rickger> rickger, no upgrade. All I did was reboot the system. When it came back on, there were duplicate Download/Documents/Music/etc.. folders and they were empty
[04:00] <blake> Jester86_Mobile: I don't know if any IDE's that have transparency, and I know less about Nano (vi user here). I actually started using Sublime Text 2 recently. It's an awesome editor and runs on Linux and Mac.
[04:00] <rickger> sacarlson, once I removed the default folders from the encrypfs and rebooted, I could access the folders again
[04:00] <blake> Jester86_Mobile: and it does syntax highlighting for just about everything ;-)
[04:00] <rickger> sacarlson, No mention of anything in the logs about this
[04:00] <rickger> I've never seen anything like this happen before
[04:01] <WFPKHC> why wont this command work "sudo chkconfig --add nginx"
[04:01] <Threeseas> can't belive I've wasted 4 hourse trying to get a scanner working
[04:01] <sacarlson> rickger: I've never seen it before.  maybe look at your apt-get log to see what you might have installed to triger the event
[04:02] <Jester86_Mobile> awesome blake - I will look into it
[04:02] <Jester86_Mobile> thanks again
[04:03] <sacarlson> rickger: see  /var/log/dpkg.log to see your history around the time you see the changes
[04:03] <oneseventeen> does anyone know how to log into AWS EC2 instances of ubuntu server?
[04:03] <WFPKHC> why wont this command work "sudo chkconfig --add nginx" - https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-nginx-on-ubuntu-12-04-lts-precise-pangolin
[04:04] <KRomo> how do i set a drive to auto mount at boot?
[04:04] <bazhang> KRomo, add to fstab
[04:04] <sacarlson> KRomo: that would require modifing the file /etc/fstab
[04:04] <oneseventeen> doh, just realized I only needed to use the username ubuntu
[04:04] <bazhang> !fstab | KRomo
[04:06] <sacarlson> WFPKHC: what error is seen with that line?  can you at least run the nginx to test it before you add it to boot?
[04:07] <WFPKHC> sudo: chkconfig: command not found
[04:07] <onceagain> i have completed the utunbut installation and now instead of a welcome screen I get a black screen with all kinds of lines through it. im guessing this is a graphics card issue. what should i do next?
[04:07] <gr33n7007h> WFPKHC, apt-get install
[04:07] <WFPKHC> ????
[04:07] <gr33n7007h> WFPKHC, sudo apt-get install chkconfig
[04:07] <WFPKHC> sudo chkconfig --add nginx
[04:08] <rickger> sacarlson, I can't see anything that would cause it to re-create the default /home folders in the /home/user/.Private/ folder
[04:08] <zykotick9> WFPKHC: chkconfig is typically a redhat tool...
[04:08] <gr33n7007h> WFPKHC, sudo apt-get install chkconfig                    #install this first
[04:08] <bazhang> it's the repos though
[04:08] <sacarlson> rickger: auto update set?
[04:08] <WFPKHC> thank you
[04:09] <rickger> sacarlson, nope
[04:09] <sacarlson> rickger: I'm clueless sorry
[04:09] <rickger> sacarlson, last upgrades were 2 days ago
[04:09] <magn3ts> How can I ACTUALLY purge the mysql databases off my system?
[04:09] <rickger> Thanks anyways, I don't have any idea what happened
[04:09] <magn3ts> As in encourage the first run installer
[04:09] <magn3ts> shocking --purge doesn't do it
[04:10] <sacarlson> rickger: oh that sounds like a match then it's linked to upgrade
[04:10] <WFPKHC> why cant i modify this document? /usr/share/nginx/www/index.html
[04:10] <smw> magn3ts, I delete the files...
[04:10] <magn3ts> smw: where please
[04:10] <WFPKHC> will beesu work on ubuntu?
[04:10] <magn3ts> I purge /var/lib/mysql
[04:10] <magn3ts> purged*
[04:11] <smw> magn3ts, /var/lib/mysql
[04:11] <magn3ts> I rm -rf 'd it already
[04:11] <smw> magn3ts, that is where they keep it (by default)
[04:11] <bazhang> WFPKHC, whats beesu
[04:11] <smw> magn3ts, well, where was your data dir?
[04:11] <WFPKHC> so i guess that is a no
[04:11] <WFPKHC> why cant i modify this document? /usr/share/nginx/www/index.html
[04:11] <magn3ts> sudo rm -rf /var/lib/mysql && sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-server && sudo apt-get install mysql-server. Nada.
[04:11] <gr33n7007h> beesu fedora
[04:11] <magn3ts> smw: the default.
[04:11] <sacarlson> rickger: I disable all that auto upgrade stuf for this type of reason
[04:11] <smw> magn3ts, well... that is where it keeps it
[04:12] <brooke_> o.o
[04:12] <smw> magn3ts, why do you think this did not work?
[04:12] <gr33n7007h> gksu
[04:12] <brooke_> how do u download oovoo on here
[04:12] <rickger> sacarlson, yeah, but I don't get why an update would do this anyways.
[04:12] <gr33n7007h> WFPKHC, gksu will work
[04:12] <blake> WFPKHC: Are you trying to modify that via sudo?
[04:13] <WFPKHC> no im trying to right click in a gui and edit
[04:13] <WFPKHC> what is gksu?
[04:13] <brooke_> i download oovoo with wine and it workd but it wouldn't let me log in, why!!!!!!!!:(((((((((((
[04:13] <smw> magn3ts, are you still seeing the old db? What is happening?
[04:13] <WFPKHC> im new to linux only about 3 days
[04:13] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, you can't modify that doc because the system owns it, you don't
[04:13] <gr33n7007h> like beesu
[04:14] <blake> WFPKHC: https://live.gnome.org/gksu
[04:14] <WFPKHC> its my computer i own it =D
[04:14] <smw> blake, don't confuse :-P
[04:14] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, wrong. :)
[04:14] <smw> WFPKHC, you are trying to edit a file owned by the system. May I ask why?
[04:14] <brooke_> so many ppl here
[04:14] <WFPKHC> its the default html file that i wish to edit for nginx
[04:15] <gr33n7007h> sudo nano /usr/share/nginx/www/index.html
[04:15] <Blackshirt> Wfpkhc, every directory and files has permission that can't be entered without some grant access with root/sudo
[04:15] <WFPKHC> k
[04:15] <smw> WFPKHC, alt+f2, then type "gksu nautilus"
[04:15] <magn3ts> smw: yup, the old "set" of DBs at least.
[04:15] <WFPKHC> well that sucks im admin
[04:16] <WFPKHC> someone keeps mentioning gksu but what is it?
[04:16] <Madpilot> WFPKHC, better "gksudo gedit /usr/share/nginx/www/index.html"
[04:16] <smw> WFPKHC, it is a program that asks you for your password and then gives you admin powers
[04:16] <Madpilot> gksu and gksudo are graphical sudo commands
[04:16] <magn3ts> smw: seriously, I did and updatedb; locate mysql and didn't see anything that looked like mysql server files outside of left over man pages and stuff. I feel like an idiot because this shouldn't be this hard.
[04:16] <zykotick9> !gksudo | WFPKHC
[04:16] <WFPKHC> k
[04:16] <brooke_> who here is a girl
[04:17] <WFPKHC> girls are mythical creatures on the internet.
[04:17] <brooke_> lol
[04:17] <WFPKHC> they dont really exist
[04:17] <smw> WFPKHC, sorry, sometimes people take for granted you would know what stuff like "sudo" is
[04:17] <WFPKHC> yeah sorry im really new to linux and have had super bad start to learning it
[04:17] <smw> WFPKHC, I suggest NOT changing /usr/share/nginx/www/index.html
[04:18] <WFPKHC> why not?
[04:18] <smw> WFPKHC, the system will replace it when there is an nginx update
[04:18] <WFPKHC> oh - yeah well im just changing the html to see if i got the right file =D
[04:18] <bobbyyu> I have a question that can be a potential problem: is Xine region-free with libdvdcss?
[04:18] <onceagain> for some reason pressing shift during boot isnt bringing me into grub
[04:18] <bobbyyu> You see, I am running Xine on Xubuntu
[04:19] <smw> WFPKHC, /var/www is probably a better place to look
[04:19] <smw> WFPKHC, but you should look in the nginx config
[04:20] <smw> WFPKHC, perhaps point nginx at something your user owns for development/testing
[04:20] <smw> WFPKHC, what is your goal?
[04:20] <WFPKHC> you know on wi ndows how i can create a folder on c:\ and name it what i desire  - is there any place i can do for linux?
[04:20] <WFPKHC> or is it recommended that I just do something else?
[04:21] <sacarlson> bobbyyu: as far as zone I think that's in the hardware of the dvd player, the old ones could be reset,  some of the new one can't
[04:21] <sacarlson> bobbyyu: I should say the dvd disk
[04:21] <Blackshirt> Wfpkhc, you should learn linux directory layout, what priviledge access, and soon
[04:21] <WFPKHC> is there any good tutorials for that mr Blackshirt ?
[04:21] <smw> WFPKHC, I cringe when I see stuff in C:\
[04:22] <bazhang> !permissions | WFPKHC
[04:22] <smw> WFPKHC, /opt is a cool playground
[04:22] <bobbyyu> Well, I can run the latest Star Trek movie on VLC in a different region.
[04:22] <bazhang> !manual | WFPKHC
[04:22] <smw> WFPKHC, just make a folder there and no one cares
[04:22] <bazhang> !rute | WFPKHC and this
[04:22] <bobbyyu> On all my DVD drives (on all three computers)
[04:22] <WFPKHC> k thanks
[04:22] <smw> WFPKHC, but I highly suggest learning the linux layout
[04:22] <smw> WFPKHC, most web stuff is in /var/www by default
[04:23] <ilius> is tray icon white list still supported?
[04:23] <Blackshirt> Wfpkhc, usually, normal user, only has access on their home directory...if you want access outside them, you need root priviledges (more than just ordinary user)
[04:23] <smw> WFPKHC, although my stuff rarely ends up there
[04:23] <alFReD-NSH> Hi, I wanna make new clean install. I've already backed up my home dir, sources.list.d and dpkg --get-selections
[04:23] <alFReD-NSH> Is there anything else you guys think I need to backup?
[04:23] <WFPKHC> ok
[04:23] <sacarlson> bobbyyu: the dvd disks as far as I know have a counter after 6 or X number of region disks detected when it reaches that limit it sets the region of your dvd disk to that region
[04:24] <ilius> i couldn't manage to fix tray icon for a program (gsettings -> com.canonical.Unity.Panel -> systray-whitelist is not working)
[04:24] <smw> alFReD-NSH, not unless you edited anything outside your home dir
[04:24] <WFPKHC> so are you saying its best just to stick to the user folderS?
[04:24] <smw> WFPKHC, depends on what you are doing.
[04:24] <PlowRox> how do I get the speaker/sound icon back? in the upper right corner? Ever since the upgrade to v12.04 its been gone...
[04:24] <WFPKHC> hosting a website
[04:25] <smw> WFPKHC, I would say no
[04:25] <organyxx> I need help.
[04:25] <Blackshirt> Wfpkhc, issue man haier on your terminal, and read layout usage on linux, directory should exist, and their usage
[04:25] <smw> WFPKHC, /var/www is a good choice
[04:25] <bazhang> organyxx, with what
[04:25] <organyxx> Getting Ubuntu to recognize my ipod touch 4G
[04:25] <bazhang> Blackshirt, thats man hier
[04:25] <organyxx> :-(
[04:25] <Blackshirt> Bazhang, thank you
[04:25] <smw> WFPKHC, I will warn you that you need to know the command line, linux permissions, etc. While most user stuff has gone graphical, server stuff has not
[04:26] <WFPKHC> why the var directory?
[04:26] <organyxx> I've already installed the latest version of libimobiledevice through the synaptic package manager
[04:26] <xubuntu5> balls
[04:26] <Blackshirt> !tell wfpkhc hier
[04:26] <bazhang> organyxx, ask an actual question, with full details, on a single line
[04:26] <blake> WFPKHC: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard#Directory_structure
[04:26] <smw> WFPKHC, god only knows
[04:26] <Blackshirt> !tell hier
[04:27] <smw> WFPKHC, personally, I like the /srv dir
[04:27] <xubuntu5> i like /balls
[04:27] <olskolirc> !tell heir | WFPKHC
[04:27] <bazhang> Blackshirt, no factoid for that. its !permissions , which I already gave him
[04:27] <smw> WFPKHC, anyways, var is for variable data that changes
[04:27] <organyxx> I would like to know how I can get my computer, which is running Ubuntu 10.04 to recognize my ipod touch 4G when connect it through usb.
[04:27] <bazhang> xubuntu5, stop that
[04:27] <smw> WFPKHC, for many websites, it has changing data so they decided on /var
[04:27] <blake> WFPKHC: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/man7/hier.7.html
[04:27] <xubuntu5> sorry bazhang 6 beers kinda messes you up so sorry lol
[04:27] <bazhang> !ot | xubuntu5
[04:27] <smw> WFPKHC, I normally do something different, but that is because I know the defaults and understand them
[04:28] <sacarlson> bobbyyu: see RPC-2 that most new disk must follow per court order http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD_Copy_Control_Association
[04:28] <xubuntu5> ubottu thanks! my bad
[04:28] <WFPKHC> thank you =D
[04:28] <organyxx> Any suggestions?
[04:28] <WFPKHC> omg i love that document about directories thank you!
[04:28] <bazhang> organyxx, try banshee/rhythmbox/gtkpod
[04:28] <WFPKHC> thats what i have been looking for!
[04:29] <xubuntu5> back later! theadmin saved me earlier mounting a USB drive and permissions
[04:29] <xubuntu5> love this channel thanks again and sorry i'm just buzzed lol
[04:29] <organyxx> Bazhang
[04:29] <organyxx> To my understanding gtkpod is only compatible with 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gen ipods.
[04:30] <bazhang> organyxx, have you tried them all?
[04:30] <xubuntu5> what gen are they up to?
[04:30] <organyxx> Yes
[04:30] <organyxx> When I open rhythm box it doesn't recognize my ipod.
[04:30] <bazhang> organyxx, and none of the many players work?
[04:31] <alFReD-NSH> organyxx Have you tried banshee? Though its a bit buggy...
[04:31] <organyxx> Usually what would happen, b4 I installed ios 5.1.1 is that when I connected the ipod touch 4g via usb, ubuntu would recognize it and I would see a little icon with my ipods name on the desktop.
[04:31] <gits1225> How can I fix the middle mouse click behaviour in firefox?
[04:31] <bazhang> organyxx, indeed banshee recognizes every single iPod I have
[04:31] <organyxx> I tried banshee.
[04:32] <alFReD-NSH> organyxx Maybe you should open an issue for rhythm box in their issue tracker...
[04:32] <bazhang> organyxx, so the new firmware blocks it then. wait for a fix/file a bug in the meantime
[04:32] <organyxx> Okay.
[04:32] <bazhang> !bug | organyxx
[04:32]  * WFPKHC yawns*
[04:32] <organyxx> Okay. Thanks ubottu and bazhang.
[04:33] <organyxx> And to my understanding users had to install libimobiledevice for ubuntu to be able to recognize your idevice.
[04:34] <organyxx> After it's recognized you then could use rhythm box and banshee to sync music.
[04:35] <WFPKHC> i just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has helped me - i know i dont always say it but - thank you
[04:35] <Blackshirt> Wfpkhc, no matter
[04:36] <bazhang> organyxx, and it seems the firmware upgrade changed that. banshee still works here, no firmware upgrade in place. file a bug in banshee to get the ball rolling, if you wish
[04:36] <WFPKHC> someone said i should create a folder in var - how do i do it via the gui?
[04:37] <organyxx> What firmware do you have installed on your idevice bazhang?
[04:37] <organyxx> Or what version.
[04:37] <bazhang> organyxx, not sure, quite much the older one
[04:37] <organyxx> ah.
[04:37] <WFPKHC> someone said i should create a folder in var - how do i do it via the gui?
[04:38] <gr33n7007h> WFPKHC, alt+f2 >> nautilus /var/ >> right click >> create folder
[04:38] <Blackshirt> Wfpkhc, run nautilus with root access, for example with gksu nautilus, and then make folder likes usually
[04:38] <WFPKHC> thank you green
[04:38] <organyxx> Well if it's true that the ios 5.1.1 firmware update prevents penguins from talking to fruits then I can't be the only one who has noticed this.
[04:38] <WFPKHC> what is nautilus?
[04:38] <sacarlson> !nautilus
[04:38] <gr33n7007h> filemanager
[04:39] <bazhang> WFPKHC, the file browser
[04:39] <Blackshirt> Wfpkhc, nautilus was file manager on gnome desktop, just like windows explorer on windows
[04:39] <organyxx> penguins being linux and fruits being apple.
[04:39] <bazhang> WFPKHC, you really should have a look at the ubuntu manual I linked you earlier
[04:39] <sacarlson> does that  bot hate me or what?  something simple like !nautilus ?
[04:39] <bazhang> !manual | WFPKHC here it is again
[04:39] <WFPKHC> k - i did read the manual - little and appreciate the link alot -
[04:40] <WFPKHC> and to everyone who is helping me - it means alot
[04:40] <bazhang> organyxx, yes, we know. file a bug, and it will get looked at. no need to editorialize here
[04:40] <gits1225> Blackshirt: Don't sudo nautilus and gksu nautilus do the same thing?
[04:40] <bazhang> !gksudo | gits1225
[04:41] <chu> Shouldn't use sudo on graphical applications.
[04:41] <bazhang> gits1225, take a look at that link
[04:41] <gits1225> Yeah k
[04:41] <Blackshirt> Gits, basically yes, but don't do that.. It setup different environment
[04:44] <Areckx> I am having serious problems with 10.04 and my iPhone. On fresh install, I could mount my iphone, but after installing all of the goodies in order to actually make use of mounting it, it now is unable to be mounted through USB. I could SSH into it but now it's not even letting me do that...
[04:44] <organyxx> Ssame here Areckx
[04:45] <Areckx> This is my sources.list I have tried installing a bunch of ifuse/libimobile etc and now I can't SSH into my device...
[04:45] <organyxx> I can't seem get my ipod touch 4G to mount when I connect through USB.
[04:46] <organyxx> I'm running ios 5.1.1 firmware.
[04:46] <Areckx> I am running 5.0.3 and jailbroken
[04:46] <Areckx> SSH is set to on, I have rebooted, resprung, turned ssh off/on and still can't SSH
[04:47] <Areckx> I pretty much gave up on being able to mount it, but why can't I SSH?
[04:47] <WFPKHC> how do i add a program to startup?
[04:47] <debby> would the command "sudo apt-get autoremove --purge package" remove the package and all it's installed dependencies and their config files (if any)?
[04:48] <WFPKHC> nevermind =D
[04:48] <sacarlson> WFPKHC: one of many methods you can add a @reboot to your users crontab
[04:48] <WFPKHC> sudo chkconfig nginx on =D
[04:48] <gr33n7007h> debby, yes
[04:48] <sacarlson> WFPKHC: that will also work
[04:48] <debby> gr33n7007h: ok, thanks
[04:49] <WFPKHC> how do i tell it not to be in the startup?
[04:50] <sacarlson> chkconfig nginx off
[04:51] <WFPKHC> hc@Hawkette:~$ sudo chkconfig nginx off
[04:51] <WFPKHC> /sbin/insserv: No such file or directory
[04:52] <WFPKHC> ??
[04:53] <john> ...
[04:53] <sacarlson> WFPKHC: maybe it want the full file path?
[04:53] <Areckx> I think it is a problem with nautilus
[04:53] <Areckx> I go to connect to server, and it doesn't have anything other than custom connection
[04:54] <WFPKHC> but i used
[04:54] <jblp> bah
[04:54] <WFPKHC> sudo chkconfig nginx on to turn it on
[04:54] <jblp> stupid video card crapped the bed tonight
[04:54] <jblp> Time to bake it again
[04:55] <WFPKHC> bbs
[04:55] <willsky> testing
[04:55] <zivester> i wonder if this thing will support ubuntu: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DNQc9rgV9A
[04:55] <sacarlson> Areckx: oh is this were you try to ssh in with nautilus into like an android phone or iphone?
[04:57] <sacarlson> Areckx:  I had the same problem with my android, I can't ssh in with nautilus but I can ssh in from a terminal,  not sure why
[04:57] <Areckx> sacarlson::  yes I recently had the feature, but I installed a bunch of new reps and tried to install ifuse /gtkpod etc and now it doesn't work anymore
[04:58] <organyxx> Areckx
[04:58] <organyxx> To my understanding gtkpod doesn't support 4G devices.
[04:58] <sacarlson> Areckx: well as it works from ssh on term I assumed the problem was on the nautilus side or maybe the ssh server on android has limited abilities
[04:59] <organyxx> Have you tried installing libimobiledevice?
[04:59] <Areckx> organyxx::  yes
[04:59] <organyxx> Ah
[05:00] <Areckx> I am running some sudo aptitude build-dep
[05:01] <aquafina> hi
[05:02] <eppendorftHeidel> joj
[05:05] <Areckx> going through synaptic and installing a bunch of stuff which may have been removed from aptitude
[05:06] <Areckx> I wish there was a faster way that just clicking and clicking and clicking...
[05:07] <lbakalinsky> Hello All, does anyone have any experience with a clustered apache environment. I am looking to create a WebCluster and wondering if anyone has a recommendation on which file system to use (GFS, Gluster, OCFS2, or something else), any advice would be greatly appreciated
[05:09] <northcoastmustan> hi all, glad to be here. I'm using pinguy OS atm
[05:11] <jonathon> Anyone know why my screen lags when I put things in fullscreen?
[05:11] <northcoastmustan> what do you mean by "lags"?
[05:12] <jonathon> Like when I try to play FoFiX, A python game, or watch a flash video in fullscreen, It'll have random lag spikes every couple seconds, Like going from the regular FPS to like 4FPS for a second, then repeat
[05:13] <northcoastmustan> have you checked to see if additional drivers are necessary for your video card?
[05:13] <jonathon> Both Flash and Python are up to date, as are my Video card drivers
[05:13] <jonathon> Yea
[05:13] <northcoastmustan> haha
[05:13] <northcoastmustan> youre running ubuntu 12.04?
[05:14] <jonathon> There's two for my video card though, one is regular, the other says Post Release Updates, Which I can't install for some reason, And yea, 12.04
[05:15] <northcoastmustan> post release might be similar to a beta version that is newer than the stable. at least that is what i would be lead to believe
[05:15] <jonathon> That's what I assumed also, But the Post Release ones refuse to install, Which has never been a problem
[05:15] <tomodo> why is wine sometimes jerky?
[05:16] <SadlyMistaken> Hello Everybody, I am looking for the way to see the Superior Bar with Buttons in the new nautilus of 12.04, Can someone help me with this?
[05:16] <SadlyMistaken> Please
[05:16] <northcoastmustan> you know, i've had the same problem when i was on ubuntu 12.04. currently i'm using pinguy but i noticed similar issue
[05:17] <northcoastmustan> tomodo, we would need more information about your computer and operating system you're currently running
[05:17] <SadlyMistaken> Is pinguy an OS? what are you talking about?
[05:17] <tomodo> how will that help?
[05:17] <jonathon> I certainly don't want to install a new OS
[05:18] <northcoastmustan> pinguy is a distribution based on ubuntu and debian stable
[05:18] <SadlyMistaken> northcoastmustan: ah ok, so this message was not to me.
[05:18] <northcoastmustan> tomodo, some video cards require further support to install
[05:18] <q_a_z_steve> how do I hold packages from being updated past a certain version?
[05:19] <northcoastmustan> sry, lol, i'm trying to do my best w/ everyone at the moment
[05:19] <SadlyMistaken> THen i will continue with my problem. In 12.04, nautilus doesn't show us a superior bar with icons to... "cut,copie,paste" or "create new folder", could someone tell me how can i get it, please?
[05:20] <bazhang> q_a_z_steve, by pinning
[05:20] <bazhang> !pinning | q_a_z_steve
[05:20] <Areckx> OK I fixed it! I just did sudo aptitude purge nautilus then sudo aptitude install nautilus
[05:20] <northcoastmustan> jonathon, you shouldn't need to install a new OS. I use pinguy out of personal preference. sry for confusion
[05:20] <bazhang> northcoastmustan, pinguy is offtopic here.
[05:20] <jonathon> It's alright :P
[05:21] <northcoastmustan> i wasnt using pinguy as a topic, just stating my current operating system..
[05:21] <q_a_z_steve> bazhang: sounds about right, couldn't get the google search to give me that.
[05:21] <bazhang> northcoastmustan, please stop talking about it. it's not supported, and there is no support issues in your statements
[05:22] <northcoastmustan> I'm not talking about it..? lol
[05:22] <Areckx> Still have the usb problem unresolved... but I'm okay with SSH, it actually works better for me
[05:23] <Areckx> unless I would want to add music to my native iphone music player...
[05:23] <SadlyMistaken> THen i will continue with my problem. In 12.04, nautilus doesn't show us a superior Toolbar with icons to... "cut,copie,paste" or "create new folder", could someone tell me how can i get it, please?
[05:23] <Areckx> ummmm <northcoastmustan> hi all, glad to be here. I'm using pinguy OS atm
[05:24] <northcoastmustan> all i was saying is that is what i'm using, i didnt say ask me questions about it
[05:24] <Areckx> It's confusing, because people might think you're asking about support questions
[05:24] <tomodo> do you have info about wine and graphics card?
[05:24] <Areckx> so why even state it?
[05:24] <tomodo> what should I do about it?
[05:25] <q_a_z_steve> SadlyMistaken: which exact function are you looking for?
[05:25] <bazhang> tomodo, which game/app
[05:25] <northcoastmustan> i'm not asking any questions, i know what i'm doing. i didnt see a specific channel for pinguy...wow
[05:25] <tomodo> tygem
[05:25] <bazhang> tomodo, checked the appdb yet? asked in #winehq ?
[05:25] <tomodo> sometimes it works perfectly, sometimes the animation are choppy
[05:25] <tomodo> no
[05:25] <bazhang> !appdb | tomodo
[05:25] <SadlyMistaken> q_a_z_steve: i don't looking for any function, i need the superior toolbar with large icons... (i like New Folder Button)
[05:26] <bazhang> tomodo, that'd be the first place to check
[05:26] <tomodo> ok thanks
[05:26] <djntd> join openkinect
[05:26] <q_a_z_steve> Menu's are still there, File, Edit, etc. you can find them, yes?
[05:29] <[emil]> Hi, I was trying to install sublime editor. Could some1 guide me through the steps. These are the files I got after extracting the tar.bz2 file.

[05:34] <dbenson> hi all, where is the right place to ask about hylafax on ubuntu?  I've read ubuntu's official page about hylafax (awesome), dug through the web and looked for a hylafax channel on Freenode.  Just need advice about a modem purchace...  Sorry if wrong place...
[05:34] <WFPKHC> ok thanks
[05:35] <bazhang> dbenson, hardware? check  the hcl?
[05:35] <bazhang> !hcl | dbenson
[05:35] <[emil]> doesnt a binary always execute when we give ./binary?
[05:36] <bwayne> [emil], granted there aren't any issues with the binary itself, yes.
[05:37] <SadlyMistaken> THen i will continue with my problem. In 12.04, nautilus doesn't show us a superior Toolbar with icons to... "cut,copie,paste" or "create new folder", could someone tell me how can i get it, please?
[05:37] <[emil]> bwayne, issues like?
[05:37] <wolfgang> dware
[05:37] <bwayne> [emil], incompletely built, wrong architecture, etc.
[05:38] <[emil]> bwayne, ok, If it is incompletely built, why do they ship a binary after all?
[05:38] <dbenson> bazhang: thanks for responding with that link.  it didn't help but i appreciate the effort...  cheers!
[05:38] <sacarlson> SadlyMistaken: did you try the right mouse botton on a selected file?
[05:38] <bwayne> [emil], sorry i just stepped in. what issue are you having?
[05:39] <wolfgang> hay I was wondering does virtual box from software center work just like virtual machine?
[05:39] <SadlyMistaken> sacarlson: Are you serious or sarcastic? I can do it, but my 8 years old son normally used these buttons.
[05:39] <bazhang> wolfgang, yes
[05:39] <bazhang> !vm | wolfgang
[05:39] <wolfgang> oh hay its you bazhang
[05:39] <[emil]> bwayne, I was trying to install an editor called sublime. It has a binary called sublime_text. When I do ./sublime_text it is not working.
[05:39] <wolfgang> is this all you do?
[05:39] <tomodo> any idea how to fix choppy/jerky animation in wine?:(
[05:40] <bwayne> [emil], you installed from source?
[05:40] <sacarlson> SadlyMistaken: sorry I'm not familiar with these icons see manual for details http://www.linuxselfhelp.com/gnome/users-guide/nautilus.html
[05:40] <bazhang> tomodo, #winehq is the place for specific apps after checking the appdb
[05:40] <[emil]> bwayne, Ill tell you. I downloaded the tar.bz2 and unzipped it. Thats all I did.
[05:40] <wolfgang> I forgot where do i read about shell script?
[05:41] <northcoastmustan> wolfgang, virtual box is just like a virtual machine if you are referring to Micro$
, thank you
[05:41] <northcoastmustan> you're welcome
[05:41] <bazhang> !terminal | wolfgang
[05:41] <bwayne> [emil], cd into the directory.  then run ./configure
[05:41] <wolfgang> Not sure what miro$ is though
[05:42] <bazhang> wolfgang, Microsoft windows, which could be run in an ubuntu hosted virtualbox
[05:42] <northcoastmustan> microsoft's virtual machine
[05:42] <[emil]> bwayne, there is no file configure . 'Icon', 'PackageSetup.py', 'lib', 'sublime_text', 'sublime_plugin.py', 'Pristine Packages' . These are the only files present.
[05:42] <wolfgang> bazhang, Oh thank you
[05:42] <SadlyMistaken> sacarlson: nautilus official site is obsolete about their last documentation.
[05:42] <bwayne> [emil], pls send me the link that you downloaded it from.
[05:43] <wolfgang> I,ll be back i fii need further advice
[05:43] <bwayne> [emil], i'll try to see what's going on.
[05:43] <[emil]> bwayne, http://www.sublimetext.com/2
[05:43] <northcoastmustan> sry for confusion
[05:43] <sacarlson> SadlyMistaken: oh well I run the old 10.04 it looks just like that
[05:43] <[emil]> bwayne, linux 64 bit
[05:43] <sacarlson> SadlyMistaken: if you prefer the way it was try ubuntu 10.04
[05:44] <SadlyMistaken> sacarlson: thanks... you sound really sarcastic, but Ok, thanks anyway.

[05:44] <[emil]> bwayne, sure. :) Actually this is what I thought. ---If there is an executable shipped along then, it must straight away execute--
[05:44] <mcored> i just want it to be mounted similar to one hard disk mounted as /home and that doesnt get showed in Devices - just like that
[05:45] <bazhang> !notunity | SadlyMistaken
[05:45] <r00tBurger> can anyone give me a proxy that works with IRC?
[05:45] <r00tBurger> ive been at it for almost 3 hours
[05:45] <bazhang> r00tBurger, thats not part of ubuntu support
[05:45] <bazhang> r00tBurger, try #freenode or use alis
[05:46] <bwayne> [emil], i'll unpack these and see what's happening, friend.  i've got a 32 bit install but i'll look at the 64 bit as well.
[05:46] <bazhang> !alis | r00tBurger
[05:46] <[emil]> bwayne, sure
[05:46] <r00tBurger> thank you
[05:46] <zakidine> Hi everyone !!
[05:46] <sacarlson> [emil] if auto indent is the feature of this editor you are trying to install you should know that vim and others also have that feature.  what feature is it your looking for?
[05:47] <wolfgang> How do i check my harddrive capacity?
[05:47] <[emil]> sacarlson, actually I wanted to learn about installing. its for my bro. I use emacs.
[05:47] <SadlyMistaken> ubotto I have gnome-panel installed and running very well. I wasn't talking about these. I was talking about the ToolBar with Icons..
[05:47] <zakidine> i want to know the names of other derives of Ubuntu that dont have Unity!!
[05:47] <sacarlson> [emil
[05:48] <wolfgang> How do i check how much my hard drive holds?
[05:48] <gr33n7007h> [emil], just downloaded both 32bit 64bit, 64bit doesn't work but the 32bit one does
[05:48] <bwayne> [emil], i unpacked the 32 bit.  i was surprised to actually find the precompiled binary.  simply running ./sublime_text from the command line executed it.
[05:48] <northcoastmustan> wolfgang, you can use the disk utility that should be pre-installed
[05:48] <sacarlson> [emil] to install we nomaly us packages from the repo's that are preinstalled  using apt-get or synaptic
[05:48] <wolfgang> Where do i find it?
[05:48] <Abhijit> hi. i installed this extension from here https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/329/currency-converter/ but can't figure out where it gone? how to use it? help please
[05:48] <[emil]> gr33n7007h, then it must wrong architecture. my bad
[05:49] <genii-around> wolfgang: df -h will give a rough idea
[05:49] <northcoastmustan> you can search using the heads up display
[05:49] <sacarlson> [emil] sorry not preinstalled but precompiled
[05:49] <wolfgang> genii-around, what do you mean? type that in terminal?
[05:49] <genii-around> wolfgang: Yes
[05:49] <wolfgang> ok thank you
[05:50] <genii-around> np
[05:50] <wolfgang> ok it gives me a small list which is it?
[05:50] <bwayne> [emil], that looks like a good editor.  thanks for bringing it to my attention.  I may take another look at it should vim fall off the planet. :)
[05:50] <wolfgang> /dev/sdf1?
[05:50] <FOX_> hi, can you help me to solve gek2 engine error related to murrine module ???
[05:50] <genii-around> wolfgang: The one which says something like /dev/sda1        79G   63G   13G  83% /
[05:50] <dotman14> Hello
[05:51] <[emil]> bwayne, it was wrong architecture. simple solution learned the hard way :P
[05:51] <tomodo> any idea how to fix choppy/jerky animation in wine?
[05:51] <tomodo> not a specific app
[05:51] <tomodo> in genral
[05:51] <genii-around> ( which is my result on my own box)
[05:51] <bwayne> [emil], oh wow.  yeah.  know you're arch. lol
[05:51] <wolfgang> ok it says "/dev/sdf1       232G  8.8G  212G   4% " so i have 212 gigs left?
[05:51] <genii-around> wolfgang: The one which at the end is only a slash. This is where your Ubuntu is installed to.
[05:52] <genii-around> wolfgang: On that partition of the hard drive, yes.
[05:52] <FOX_> hi, can ne1 help me to solve gek2 engine error related to murrine module ???
[05:52] <wolfgang> ok but where is my stoage left? 212G?
[05:52] <zakidine> SALAM, SALUT, HELLO
[05:52] <wolfgang> Thank you
[05:52] <zakidine> would you answer my question please?
[05:52] <genii-around> wolfgang: On that partition of your hard drive, there is 212Gb remaining, yes
[05:52] <wolfgang> Ok thank you
[05:52] <Abhijit> hi. i installed this extension from here https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/329/currency-converter/ but can't figure out where it gone? how to use it? help please
[05:53] <chu> zakidine: What is your question?
[05:53] <zakidine> chu,  hi, i wanted to know the names of other Os alternative to Ubuntu, but without the Unity
[05:53] <zakidine> Gnome !!
[05:53] <Abhijit> zakidine, fedora.
[05:54] <zakidine> and again?
[05:54] <chu> zakidine: Just use Ubuntu and install a different Desktop Environment?
[05:54] <sacarlson> zakidine: mint; lubuntu; xubuntu; ubuntu 10.04...
[05:54] <FOX_> there are many just google it out
[05:54] <genii-around> zakidine: Distrowatch has a fairly long list. But why not just use Ubuntu with a different desktop
[05:54] <zakidine> i want gnome, not xfce or lde..
[05:54] <northcoastmustan> try distrowatch.com
[05:54] <sonal> my system get's restarted every now and then
[05:54] <FOX_> go to wiki u will get what u want
[05:55] <bazhang> !notunity | zakidine
[05:55] <sacarlson> zakidine: or install as FOX_ points out another desktop like gnome-shell
[05:56] <northcoastmustan> zakidine: what version of gnome would be important to know
[05:57] <bwayne> i tried unity for a few weeks.  i think i'm liking gnome shell a bit better.
[05:57] <Robr3rd> Whenever my system goes into power save mode (I think the technical term is "suspend" -- essentially the monitor rests but nothing else) I am unable to resume my session. I wiggle my mouse and my monitor turns on, I can see my mouse moving, and I can also drop to the virtual terminals, but when in the graphical session, everything other than the mouse is black./
[05:57] <zakidine> i think gnome2 is good !!
[05:58] <Zatara75> anyone have a way to move the unity sidebar to bottom yet on 12.04?
[05:58] <northcoastmustan> you can install "gnome-panel" for gnome fallback mode
[05:58] <zakidine> sacarlson,  what mint should i try?
[05:58] <bazhang> Zatara75, there is an unsupported method
[05:58] <FOX_> ppl can u help me to solve may gtk2 error ????
[05:58] <zakidine> i was really hoping for canonical to remove the unity from the 12.04
[05:58] <bazhang> FOX_, what error is that
[05:59] <zakidine> anyway
[05:59] <bazhang> zakidine, lets get back on topic please
[05:59] <zakidine> yes, sorry
[05:59] <FOX_> bazhang, gek2 engine error related to murrine module
[05:59] <osubuck_> zakidine- keep hoping
[05:59] <bazhang> FOX_, explain exactly what you are trying to do
[05:59] <chu> zakidine: You should look into what northcoastmustan suggested, have a look at "gnome-panel" (GNOME fallback mode).
[06:00] <FOX_> while installing vmware it got this :"Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "murrine""

[06:13] <muh2000> hi all
[06:13] <FOX_> yo muh2000
[06:14] <muh2000> is there an easy way to add another ecryptfs encrypted HDD ?
[06:15] <muh2000> right now i have the /home/$username encrypted.  and i want another HDD being encrypted with ecryptfs...
[06:16] <sacarlson> muh2000: I wrote a set of scripts to create an ecryptfs to a file.  will create, open, close
[06:16] <muh2000> hmmm a file is not that great for a 1tbyte volume....
[06:16] <Ormie> Will GNOME apps work well in KDE?
[06:17] <sacarlson> muh2000: well I'm not sure the size makes any difference
[06:17] <bazhang> Ormie, yes
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> Ormie:  should bne very few issues
[06:17] <muh2000> or might it be possible to use that script on a normal fs.
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> i use k3b in gnome all the time
[06:17] <sacarlson> muh2000: you could modify it to point to a partition as you wish
[06:17] <muh2000> sacarlson: can i have a look at the script?
[06:18] <sacarlson> muh2000: it is a normal file system just loop linked to a file
[06:18] <Abhijit> Bibo, toggle? why? I do not want to uninstall it?
[06:18] <FOX_> hay can ne1 plz suggest gtk2 channel
[06:18] <Abhijit> northcoastmustan, gnome3
[06:18] <Abhijit> northcoastmustan, gnome3 shell
[06:18] <bazhang> !alis | FOX_
[06:18] <muh2000> sacarlson: i guess it should work then.
[06:18] <sacarlson> muh2000: ok, I didn't publish them yet just give me a moment
[06:18] <roezer> what’s a good disro to support an nvida card without installing drivers just too lazy to install them its a geforce210
[06:18] <bazhang> roezer, ubuntu
[06:19] <Abhijit> :-)
[06:19] <roezer> have ubuntu studio
[06:19] <bazhang> roezer, so install ubuntustudio-desktop
[06:19] <bazhang> roezer, or rather ubuntu-desktop
[06:19]  * Dr_Willis thinkd itd easier to install the drivers then to sswitch distros
[06:19] <roezer> have it on my laptop
[06:20] <Dr_Willis> all the *buntus should have the same driver support.
[06:20] <Bibo> Abhijit, on the website. extensions.gnome.org
[06:20] <roezer> running debian on my desktop was working but latley when I open vlc or totem it will freeze
[06:20] <Bibo> that's how you manage extensions
[06:21] <roezer> but this does not happen with video in lives
[06:21] <Bibo> roezer you should go to #debian
[06:21] <northcoastmustan> see if this might be a memory issue? http://askubuntu.com/questions/91118/gnome-shell-extension-empty
[06:31] <FuFY> cw
[06:33] <muh2000> i am trying and failing adding this to sudoers (visudo)   myusername ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /sbin/cryptsetup
[06:37] <Abhijit> Bibo, i have already installed it! in the installed extension section it shows the extension. that is not what i am looking for. i know it is installed properly. i wnat to know how do I 'use' it now?
[06:37] <Bibo> which extension was it?
[06:38] <Dr_Willis> toggle it on/off look for an icon to show up..
[06:38] <Dr_Willis> check its docs? ;)
[06:38] <Abhijit> Bibo, https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/329/currency-converter/
[06:38] <Abhijit> Dr_Willis, i sure had checked if there was one
[06:38] <Dr_Willis> normally icon at tho riht or bottom right
[06:39] <Dr_Willis> sounds like you should be looking for a differnet converter tool
[06:39] <Bibo> you just type in the search bar
[06:39] <Dr_Willis> google web site has a similer feature
[06:39] <KRomo> guys so i been using 12.04 but it had some bugs on my system, just upgraded to 12.10 and they are all solved
[06:39] <KRomo> i know 12.10 is alpha but wow
[06:39] <Abhijit> Dr_Willis, i wanted something on my desktop as widget or screenlet
[06:39] <KRomo> soooo much better
[06:40] <Dr_Willis> KRomo:  its also suported in #ubuntu+1
[06:40] <Dr_Willis> Abhijit:  gnome-shell dosnt really push the widgit/cluttered desktop  method of doing things
[06:40] <KRomo> my system boots faster and under proprietarydrivers there is like 10 found installed dtivers not just the video card
[06:41] <salek2> how can I have my screen back?
[06:42] <Dr_Willis> salek2:  thats a little vague
[06:42] <KRomo> oh and 12.10 can mount my galaxy nexus, 12.04 couldnt
[06:42] <G14> Can I file a bug report with a pastebin of the terminal output here?
[06:42] <Dr_Willis> !bug
[06:43] <G14> Mmkay, thanks. I'll try that when I get rebooted, if there's still problems
[06:43] <G14> It's with compiz-core. I'mm assuming that's a core ubuntu service.
[06:44] <salek2> I,m useing ubuntu 10.4, I  just changed the screen resolution and after that I have a black screen with a flowing box with this messege : " NOT OPTIMUM MODE, recommended mod 1600x900 60Hz , analog"
[06:44] <salek2> how can I have my screen back?
[06:44] <Bibo> xrandr -s 0
[06:45] <Dr_Willis> you set a mode thats out of range for your monitor it seems
[06:45] <myles> Hello, I need some help with running a command with wine.
[06:45] <Dr_Willis> you mean a 'floating box' ? moveing around the screen?
[06:45] <G14> Great. Now it's not letting me type into terminal, what the hell?! xD
[06:45] <Cisce> I would like some help with running a command with wine.
[06:46] <Dr_Willis> Cisce:  wine /path/to/whatever.exe
[06:46] <Cisce> I want to run env WINEDEBUG="-all,+fps"  on /media/7CE00EAEE00E6EA8/Gw2.exe but have no clue how I would go about doing so by a shortcut
[06:46] <Dr_Willis> make a script that does it - would be one way Cisce  and then make a launcher that runs the script
[06:46] <Bibo> G14: If in doubt, reboot.
[06:47] <salek2> yes a floating box
[06:47] <Cisce> I honestly have no clue how I would go about making a script to do it. :/
[06:47] <Dr_Willis> !abs
[06:47] <G14> @Bibo - I just got DONE rebooting from update manager! xD I'll try again though...
[06:47] <Cisce> I mean, mainly syntax wise.
[06:47] <Ben64> #!/bin/bash [ENTER] env.....blahblah
[06:48] <Cisce> like, I know the command but I have no clue if I'd have to enter wine before hand or after hand etc
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> sounds like about a 3 line  script
[06:48] <Cisce> I've never done a bash script. D:
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> #!/bin/bash
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> set thevariables
[06:48] <Bibo> Cisce, Try looking at the command used for another wine applications then just modify it as necessary
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> wine whatever
[06:48] <Ben64> could do it in two lines
[06:48] <Ben64> env WINEPREFIX="/mnt/uber/ben64/.winexiv" wine /mnt/uber/ben64/.winexiv/drive_c/Program\ Files/SquareEnix/FINAL\ FANTASY\ XIV/ffxivboot.exe
[06:48] <Bibo> And yeah first line should be #! /bin/bash
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> you should export the vrables i think
[06:49] <Ben64> 2nd line in one of my scripts
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> im not even sure what 'env' does
[06:49] <Bibo> Ben put quotes around that second path
[06:49] <Ben64> Bibo: not necessary
[06:49] <initdv> so how do i fix a tvtuner ?
[06:49] <initdv> it says device is busy
[06:50] <initdv> it shows picture during scanning in tvtime for about 5 seconds
[06:50] <initdv> but no sound
[06:50] <initdv> and tvtime needs sudo
[06:51] <initdv> and i cant watch tv cuz both a dvb-t as a  analog are in use ?.?
[06:52] <G14> Yeah, great. Running update manager somehow rendered my keyboard useless
[06:52] <Bibo> env is environment
[06:52] <G14> Here's the pastebin for my original issue - http://pastebin.com/twdcMjLt
[06:53] <initdv> so how do i pastebin dmesg again ?
[06:54] <ominomi> hmm
[06:54] <Bibo> G14: Well if your keyboard doesn't work, I don't know what else you can do :/
[06:54] <Dr_Willis> dmesg |pastebinit
[06:54] <G14> Joy...
[06:54] <Dr_Willis> check the cables ;) check it in grub. see if it work sin the comnsole
[06:55] <Bibo> have you tried unplugging and replugging the keyboard back in?
[06:55] <G14> I tried unplugging/replugging it (It's a PS/2 keyboard, I believe. I -DO- have the Apple USB keyboard, lemme go find that real quick.
[06:55] <G14> Are compiz and unity tied together as a desktop GUI somehow?
[06:55] <Dr_Willis> G14:  unity is a plugin for compiz
[06:55] <wilee-nilee> G14, unity is aplugin in compiz
[06:56] <G14> I believe the main issue resided with compiz-core. How do I disable that stuff, and also, get low res mode for the initial GRUB boot, as my monitor is saying input not supported when I start it up
[06:56] <Cisce> how's this script? It doesn't launch properly. http://pastebin.ca/2159718
[06:56] <G14> *Goes to find the USB keyboard*
[06:57] <Dr_Willis> keyboard input wouldent be relatred to compiz.  since its afeatre of the X server.
[06:57] <SolarisBoy> Cisce: replace env with export
[06:57] <Dr_Willis> iunless theres some very weird ccsm/compiz settings messed up.
[06:57] <initdv> it wants to write to tuner
[06:57] <initdv> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1031611/
[06:57] <Cisce> solaris: for both?
[06:57] <SolarisBoy> yes
[06:57] <initdv> any ideas ?
[06:57]  * Dr_Willis is nto sure how env differs from export.
[06:57] <SolarisBoy> its not ksh
[06:57] <SolarisBoy> its bash
[06:57] <bwayne> Cisce, it looks like you're mixing up csh and bash.  replaced the 'envs' with 'exports'.
[06:57] <SolarisBoy> env prints the env array
[06:58] <G14> Yeah, the keyboard just started not working after rebooting after updating the stuff. I thougt updating would fix the compiz bugs, but nope.
[06:58] <Cisce> wine: cannot find '/z/media/7CE00EAEE00E6EA8/Gw2.exe'
[06:58] <Cisce> Strange.
[06:58] <initdv> anybody tuner not writable o_0
[06:58] <SolarisBoy> that doesn't exit
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> does the keybord work on th login screen?
[06:58] <SolarisBoy> Cisco thats under ~/.wine/z/*
[06:58] <G14> Set login to skip
[06:59] <G14> And, great. USB keyboard doesn't work either, how the hell does something like that even happen? XD
[06:59] <initdv> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1031611/
[06:59] <G14> Functions like caps lock, etc, work, because the LED's light up...
[06:59] <SolarisBoy> if your referencing the z drive in windows or such
[06:59] <Bibo> I'd tell you exactly what you need to do for your wine script if I was logged into my ubuntu parition
[06:59] <initdv> how do i fix this dmesg ?
[06:59] <Dr_Willis> G14:  try sshing in?  if you can. )
[06:59] <Cisce> SOlarisBoy: So you want me to set the second line to /home/myles/.wine/z/* ?
[06:59] <G14> SSH enabled by default?
[06:59] <Bibo> yes
[06:59] <SolarisBoy> no you should set to where it exists but like i said if you have it on the "z" drive its under .wine
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> G14:  nope.
[07:00] <G14> Crud. xD
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> i always install it as one of the  first things
[07:00] <initdv> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1031611/
[07:00] <initdv> how do i fix this dmesg ?
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> G14:  try a live cd.. see if the keyboard works there
[07:00] <G14> I'll try that real quick
[07:00] <Bibo> when in a lot more doubt then before. reinstall. :/
[07:00] <Bibo> *than
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> bbl
[07:01] <initdv> oh
[07:01] <initdv> bbq bbl
[07:01] <G14> Can I manage and fix the installed system using the liveCD? [dual booting 12.04 with Win7
[07:01] <Bibo> maybe
[07:01] <zjhui> Did anyone use gentoo prefix on ubuntu?
[07:01] <G14> Hopefully.
[07:02] <Bibo> depends on if you can find the issue
[07:02] <G14> I know it's with unity and compiz-core...
[07:02] <Bibo> zhhui: ??
[07:02] <G14> As well as I need to find the low res boot thing for startup
[07:02] <initdv> so how do i debug this tuner ? shows picture during scanning ... error in dmesg ?.?
[07:02] <superuser> !info compiz
[07:03] <Bibo> G14: How does Gnome Shell work for you? It uses Mutter (or is it called Clutter?)
[07:03] <zjhui> Bibo: Did you know gentoo prefix?
[07:03] <G14> No idea.
[07:03] <initdv> src
[07:03] <G14> @Bibo Okay, liveCD is booting up...
[07:03] <Bibo> What gentoo prefix?
[07:03] <Bibo> prefix for what?
[07:03] <initdv> gentoo-src
[07:04] <robertzaccour> When I use headphones I still hear audio through the speakers. Is this a bug?
[07:04] <zjhui> Bibo: see this http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/gentoo-alt/prefix/usecases.xml
[07:04] <initdv> is this the gentoo channel ?
[07:04] <robertzaccour> no it is now
[07:04] <robertzaccour> not
[07:04] <robertzaccour> no it is not
[07:04] <initdv> olol
[07:05] <Steinsity> no
[07:05] <zjhui> initdv: no, i just ask that question
[07:05] <G14> Bibo - Everything works fine in the liveCD, unity shows up and everything. compiz-core doesn't report a crash on initial bootup...nada
[07:05] <genii-around> initdv: If you have an Ubuntu question, we may be able to assist...
[07:05] <initdv> yes
[07:05] <initdv> fix tuner
[07:05] <initdv> dammit tuner
[07:06] <initdv> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1031611/
[07:06] <crazybrain> how to install g++??
[07:06] <Bibo> Um, I either use make or apt to install applications. So what's the gentoo prefix for?
[07:06] <berinam> Um, I either use make or apt to install applications. So what's the gentoo prefix for?
[07:06] <initdv> mingw-g++
[07:06] <robertzaccour> I wish I could plug in my headphones and not hear sound from the speakers. From what I've seen there's no way. This is a huge fail
[07:06] <robertzaccour> Ubuntu in libraries? I think not
[07:06] <zjhui> Bibo: gentoo prefix can let you install things without the root
[07:07] <crazybrain> initdv: i have installed codeblocks and when i run the program it says g++ not found
[07:07] <genii-around> initdv: Looks like some irq handler problem
[07:07] <robertzaccour> Bibo, this is the #ubuntu  channel. Key word, Ubuntu
[07:07] <initdv> ah
[07:07] <robertzaccour> Ubuntu channel
[07:07] <initdv> modprobe issue ? lshw lspci ?
[07:07] <Bibo> I know, I'm not the one who brought it up
[07:07] <berinam> I know, I'm not the one who brought it up
[07:07] <zjhui> Bibo: OK, i shut up
[07:07] <initdv> crazybrain: install codeblocks-g++ or configure g++ in codeblocks
[07:08] <superuser> robertzaccour: what sound card and mixer software are you useing?
[07:08] <initdv> zjhui: gentoo prefix virtualbox me
[07:08] <crazybrain> initdv: how can i do that?
[07:08] <initdv> in codeblocks or in apt i guess
[07:09] <zjhui> initdv: what virtualbox me means?
[07:09] <initdv> google
[07:09] <robertzaccour> superuser, standard default. I plugged in the headphones, opened sound settings, and there's no option to mute speakers without muting headphones
[07:09] <zjhui> initdv: sorry, i cann't understand clearly
[07:09] <berinam> !google | initdv
[07:10] <initdv> me niether ... ubottu i need to google so google urself and google up
[07:10] <berinam> me niether ... ubottu i need to google so google urself and google up
[07:10] <auronandace> berinam: stop that
[07:10] <G14> ....derp question. From the liveCD, how do I mount the installed ubuntu filesystem as Read and write?
[07:10] <robertzaccour> berinam, ya lmgtfy them XD
[07:10]  * CoJaBo is having google issues too :/
[07:11] <superuser> robertzaccour: xfce4-mixer is a volume control program with what you need
[07:11] <robertzaccour> superuser, I'm using Gnome
[07:11] <CoJaBo> There was a really nice sequence of options, I *think* using ffmpeg, to convert a video to a series of PNGs or JPEGs or something (decimating the framerate in the process); but I can't for teh life of me seem to find it :/
[07:11] <genii-around> initdv: Have you tried experimenting with some of the kernel options at boot, like pci=routeirq or pci=acpi or so on? There's a list of the more common ones here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Common_Kernel_Options
[07:12] <superuser> robertzaccour: sudo apt-get install xfce4-mixer
[07:13] <initdv> modprobe addon
[07:13] <berinam> modprobe addon
[07:13] <Bibo> I wouldn't recommend xfce4 applications when using Gnome
[07:13] <superuser> Bibo, and why not?
[07:13] <initdv> genii-around: i have added modprobes in some cmd
[07:13] <berinam> genii-around: i have added modprobes in some cmd
[07:14] <initdv> berinam: ur some evil bot that dont like google
[07:14] <berinam> berinam: ur some evil bot that dont like google
[07:14] <Bibo> superuser: Well that's what I use on one of my laptops, it works, but sometimes there's conflicts.
[07:14]  * genii-around sips his coffee
[07:14] <superuser> Bibo, but its compatible with gnome
[07:15] <CoJaBo> lol
[07:15] <initdv> thkx
[07:15] <fabylala> asd
[07:15] <genii-around> Hm
[07:15] <initdv> so where are we lshw or lspci .
[07:15] <fabylala> fabmashkurdotblogspotdotcom
[07:15] <auronandace> fabylala: this is ubuntu support
[07:15] <Bibo> superuser: I know it's compatible, but running different parts of different DEs leads to problems occaisionally.
[07:16] <superuser> Bibo, thats the beauty of the gpl-2
[07:16] <almoxarife> lets assume i do a trace route on a set of ip's, i realize they all share an intercection, how can i use that interesection(ip)  as a  block for the set ? possible?
[07:16] <initdv> hmm ... cant speak
[07:17] <initdv> oh i can now xD
[07:17] <Bibo> superuser: um...okay
[07:17] <superuser> robertzaccour: ive used this program on gnome and it dose the trick. sudo apt-get install xfce4-mixer
[07:18] <initdv> so how do i gentoo prefix in virtualbox ?
[07:18] <auronandace> initdv: that's not a question for this channel
[07:18] <initdv> and if ubuntu maintains packages ? could they maintain a overflow free virtualbox ??? ifso like one that dont say how mutch mem to use ... and dont frreeez on max mem lol
[07:19] <initdv> are packages checked for buffer underruns ?
[07:20] <initdv> like segfaults or memory corruption ?
[07:20] <back_homu> can i ask questions in this #
[07:20] <Bibo> initdv: a lot are, but not all
[07:20] <initdv> auronandace: the Q is how am i ever gonne fix this tuner
[07:20] <initdv> thkx Bibo
[07:20] <auronandace> back_homu: if they are ubuntu support questions yes
[07:21] <back_homu> ok, noob question: help me get flash working
[07:21] <back_homu> i've tried quite a lot from google

[07:22] <Bibo> Google Chrome (and maybe Chromium) have it built in as well.
[07:22] <initdv> lshw and lspci
[07:22] <initdv> for tvtuner
[07:22] <initdv> how do i grep files named modprobe ?
[07:22] <back_homu> weird
[07:22] <back_homu> i've done all that
[07:22] <back_homu> ok one more
[07:22] <back_homu> my comp is 64 bit
[07:22] <back_homu> does Wubi automatically detect that?
[07:23] <back_homu> is it possible that my installation is in 32 bit even though the computer itself isn't?
[07:23] <feisar> back_homu: paste the output of uname -a
[07:23] <back_homu> how do i check?
[07:23] <Bibo> I've never used Wubi, but I'm assuming it would
[07:23] <initdv> back_homu: why not
[07:23] <initdv> compatibility
[07:23] <initdv> how else would u run someos thats in 32 build ?
[07:23] <back_homu> Linux ubuntu 3.2.0-23-generic #36-Ubuntu SMP Tue Apr 10 20:39:51 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[07:24] <Bibo> you have 64 bit
[07:24] <feisar> back_homu: you are using a 64 bit os
[07:24] <back_homu> looks like it yeah
[07:24] <initdv> has anybody seen my pastebin ?
[07:24] <back_homu> explain what it is and they might
[07:24] <initdv> lspci and lshw for tuner
[07:25] <back_homu> gonna do this
[07:25] <initdv> and earlier dmesg
[07:25] <back_homu> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[07:25] <h2o_ugly> hello all
[07:25] <back_homu> hi
[07:25] <feisar> back_homu: how much ram does this machine have?
[07:25] <back_homu> 4gb
[07:25] <initdv> whats restricted-extras ?
[07:25] <Bibo> back_home: That should set you up with flash and the x.264 codec :)
[07:25] <initdv> 1gb
[07:26] <auronandace> !info ubuntu-restricted-extras
[07:26] <back_homu> bibo: are you talking to me? if so, nice
[07:26] <Bibo> yes, typo lol
[07:26] <h2o_ugly> can i ask a question, probably a noob question?
[07:26] <back_homu> why not
[07:26] <back_homu> i did
[07:27] <feisar> there is no need to ask to ask, just ask
[07:27] <Steinsity> yes
[07:27] <h2o_ugly> i wrote the aircrack-ng into 12.04, now i'm wondering how to test my own system with it any advice?
[07:27] <shwouchk> I an trying to install on a dell inspiron b130 machine and during the boot of the liveUSB it hangs while loading the networking drivers, complaining it hasn't the firmware for the device (b43). Help?
[07:27] <Steinsity> of course
[07:28] <initdv> so how to debug a -g switched tvtuner ?
[07:28] <auronandace> !tv | initdv
[07:29] <Bibo> shwouchk: did you install the broadcom drivers?
[07:29] <Bibo> oh wait sorry
[07:29] <initdv> !UbuntuTV
[07:29] <h2o_ugly> i checked the chipset but couldnt find out where to find the driver
[07:29] <Bibo> didn't see that it was a liveusb
[07:29] <initdv> but my tv is for tv :p
[07:30] <back_homu> are the ubuntu-restricted-extra packages for x64 too?
[07:30] <Bibo> back_homu: yes
[07:30] <back_homu> thx
[07:30] <quazimodo> why does ubunu use dash as sh
[07:30] <quazimodo> and not bash
[07:31] <Bibo> ubuntu does use bash
[07:31] <quazimodo> Bibo: not as /bin/sh
[07:31] <auronandace> quazimodo: if i remember correctly it's because dash is faster at certain things
[07:31] <quazimodo> but i just realised
[07:31] <quazimodo> auronandace: yep i just got to that
[07:31] <quazimodo> :D
[07:31]  * quazimodo hughhalf auronandace 
[07:31] <auronandace> !dash
[07:32] <Bibo> TIL something new
[07:32] <initdv> dash bash hash
[07:32] <initdv> get it now
[07:33] <dskippy> Does anyone know which package I need to apt-get to have lirc_atiusb, the module for my snapstream firefly remote?
[07:33] <Bibo> I know bash, just not the origins of all their names
[07:34] <dskippy> I have read many forums and they seem to think it's the lirc package, but I don't have the file on my system after getting that.
[07:34] <Bibo> dskippy apt-cache search lirc_atiusb
[07:34] <shwouchk> Bibo, I did not get to this stage yet - I am first trying to boot the liveUSB...
[07:35] <genii-around> Bibo: Does not seem to exist in Ubuntu. http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=lirc_atiusb.ko&mode=exactfilename&suite=precise&arch=any
[07:36] <dskippy> Bibo: that command gives me nothing
[07:36] <back_homu> hey flash works
[07:36] <back_homu> thanks guiz
[07:36] <Bibo> shwouchk: I know you have to blacklist the firmware, I just don't know how you would do so for a liveusb
[07:36] <Bibo> back_homu: np :D
[07:37] <genii-around> dskippy : Does not seem to exist in Ubuntu. http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=lirc_atiusb.ko&mode=exactfilename&suite=precise&arch=any
[07:37] <shwouchk> Bibo, thanks, I'll look it up
[07:37] <Bibo> can you boot into it at least?
[07:37] <genii-around> Apologies on the misdirect earlier
[07:37] <back_homu> :D
[07:37] <dskippy> genii-around: Yeah I tried that site as well.
[07:38] <dskippy> I am not sure how to make this remote work. All the forums say that it's that driver. Then there's some stuff saying it's broken, which might be the case.
[07:38] <dskippy> But it was working in all previous versions of ubuntu
[07:38] <fAz41> How can i understand my Unity version ?
[07:38] <back_homu> hmm
[07:38] <back_homu> youtube audio is stuttery
[07:39] <Bibo> back_homu: an issue with pulse audio probably
[07:39] <back_homu> wat
[07:39] <Bibo> close the web browser and do pulseaudio -k
[07:39] <back_homu> ok
[07:39] <Bibo> type this command into a terminal I mean: pulseaudio -k
[07:39] <Robr3rd> Whenever my system goes into power save mode (I think the technical term is "suspend" -- essentially the monitor rests but nothing else) I am unable to resume my session. I wiggle my mouse and my monitor turns on, I can see my mouse moving, and I can also drop to the virtual terminals, but when in the graphical session, everything other than the mouse is black.
[07:40] <Bibo> shwouchk: This might help. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11879709
[07:40] <shwouchk> Bibo, thanks! it helped!
[07:40] <initdv> no audio and nop picture in tvtime unless i scan
[07:40] <initdv> :/
[07:40] <back_homu> derp
[07:40] <back_homu> flash player not working now
[07:40] <shwouchk> Bibo, the way is to add b43.blacklist=yes to the kernel options at the boot menu
[07:40] <Bibo> I had that same issue on previous versions of ubuntu, so I know that feel
[07:41] <back_homu> I don't think it's because of pulseaudio -k
[07:41] <Bibo> pulseaudio -k would restart your sound server
[07:41] <back_homu> would that cause a flash player hiccup?
[07:41] <back_homu> because now the browser does not detect flash player anymore
[07:42] <Bibo> well that was a possible fix for audio stutter. I don't know why flash stopped working
[07:42] <back_homu> ;_;
[07:42] <Bibo> does closing your browser and restarting it help?
[07:43] <back_homu> closing and restart made the flash go away
[07:43] <back_homu> let me do it again
[07:43] <vasy> hi
[07:43] <Bibo> hi
[07:44] <back_homu> i may have found the cause
[07:44] <Bibo> what was it?
[07:44] <back_homu> chrome complains my profile file cannot be accessed
[07:44] <jottbe2> Hi
[07:44] <back_homu> 3 years ago i had a similar problem on a mac
[07:44] <Kg_Lay> Who can help me concern with my Ubuntu device driver issues?
[07:44] <back_homu> and fixing the profile fixed it
[07:44] <back_homu> hi
[07:45] <vasy> hi
[07:45] <Bibo> ah, well that's good
[07:45] <back_homu> any solutions getting the profile working?
[07:45] <back_homu> the solution is gone from my memory
[07:46] <jottbe2> I am new to gentoo (used fedora and ubuntu before) currently I am setting up gnome and came through the installation of HAL, but hal isnt on my machine and I dont know how to emerge it. Is it still required at all?
[07:46] <VaSy> vasy
[07:46] <back_homu> hmm that might not be the answer
[07:46] <back_homu> flash still not working on firefox
[07:47] <c0deMaster> I downloaded Firefox from mozilla site, how to run it?
[07:47] <Bibo> hmmm...well one fix I found involves reinstalling chrome, and another said just to delete the profile and relaunch chrome
[07:47] <auronandace> c0deMaster: why not use firefox from the repo?
[07:47] <back_homu> i have no idea on how to delete the profile
[07:47] <back_homu> i still have the installer for chrome i think
[07:47] <c0deMaster> auronandace, its Firefox 13,  and  I want to try running it like that
[07:48] <auronandace> c0deMaster: firefox 13 is in the repos
[07:48] <Bibo> back_homu: well if it's not working for firefox as well, then it's a problem with the flash plugin.
[07:48] <back_homu> looks like it
[07:48] <auronandace> !info firefox | c0deMaster
[07:48] <back_homu> now i have no clue
[07:48] <jottbe2> > I am new to gentoo (used fedora and ubuntu before) currently I am setting up gnome and came through the installation of HAL, but hal isnt on my machine and I dont know how to emerge it. Is it still required at all?
[07:48] <Bibo> jottbe2: #gentoo
[07:49] <c0deMaster> auronandace, i have problem with the apt-get so I want to run it like that
[07:49] <genii-around> dskippy: The source code of the lirc package has the module lirc_atiusb in it, but it seems not to be compiled in the current final package
[07:49] <back_homu> what is the package name of flash?
[07:49] <back_homu> !flash
[07:50] <jottbe2> Bibo: what does this cryptic message want to tell me?
[07:50] <auronandace> c0deMaster: what is the problem with apt-get?
[07:50] <Corey> Hmm.  I have a checked out bazaar repo; how do I figure out what the upstream / origin / remote repo is?
[07:50] <ClientAlive> I need help with something in /etc/fstab    In that file there is a place for "type" this thing (logical volume) I need to mount happens to be ntfs. Can anyone verify if "ntfs" is the correct thing to write or is it something different?
[07:51] <c0deMaster> auronandace, I just want to run firefox from the its package not using the repo
[07:51] <Bibo> back_homu: adobe flash download page might help, http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
[07:51] <back_homu> it was the first thing i tried
[07:51] <back_homu> i followed their readme
[07:51] <initdv> hack_me carlo nt fix the tuner
[07:51] <auronandace> c0deMaster: then we can't support you if you install it that way
[07:51] <ClientAlive> also, what are the two numbers for at the end of the line?
[07:53] <Bibo> c0deMaster: Unarchive the tar file, right click on the firefox binary, go to properties, click on the permissions tab, and click the check box that says "Allow executing of this file", close the properties window, then double click on it, and click on run.
[07:54] <dcai> hi
[07:54] <Bibo> hi
[07:58] <Robr3rd> Whenever my system goes into power save mode (I think the technical term is "suspend" -- essentially the monitor rests but nothing else) I am unable to resume my session. I wiggle my mouse and my monitor turns on, I can see my mouse moving, and I can also drop to the virtual terminals, but when in the graphical session, everything other than the mouse is black.
[07:59] <Bibo> Robr3rd: X server crashed
[07:59] <tuxgeek> Robr3rd: restart x
[08:00] <Robr3rd> Bibo: Yes, I know that much so far, as restarting X fixes it, but this is a persistent problem that refuses to go away, it seems. It is also a fairly recent problem -- happening only in the last week
[08:00] <Bibo> Robr3rd: Are you using Gnome Shell or Unity?
[08:00] <back_homu> OK, Finally got it working.
[08:00] <Robr3rd> Bibo: Unity
[08:00] <Robr3rd> Bibo: On 12.04, too
[08:01] <back_homu> Bibo: if somebody else comes with the same problem, redirect them to the download site and tell them to download other versions; the .apt file. it should work.
[08:01] <l33tch> hmmm, I've been getting error's every time i come out of suspend since 12.04, but just ignoring them so far.. i should look into that
[08:02] <back_homu> One more question. I press the Right Alt button and the search thingy comes up in Unity
[08:02] <Bibo> back_homu: Glad it worked :)
[08:02] <back_homu> how do i customize that
[08:02] <muh2000> sacarlson:
[08:02] <Bibo> That's the hud I believe
[08:02] <back_homu> i don't want the search thing to work on both Alts
[08:02] <back_homu> only on left Alt
[08:02] <initdv> so how do i initdv on dvi mini projector mini dlp projector with my ubuntu pc ... need to set a extra display hdmi and low resolution dvi device
[08:02] <sacarlson> muh2000: ?
[08:02] <Bibo> Go to the keyboard settings
[08:02] <muh2000> it still asks for the pw. i have to do some more testing.
[08:02] <Bibo> It's probably in the keyboard shortcuts
[08:03] <initdv> and then mini hdmi dvi out pc with dlp mini projector and mini laserkeyboard
[08:03] <sacarlson> muh2000: if you are the only user you can setup you user to never be asked for sudo password for any command
[08:03] <initdv> but how to configure
[08:03] <initdv> and remaster
[08:03] <sacarlson> muh2000: or just a group of commands
[08:03] <muh2000> sacarlson: that would open up attack vectors.
[08:04] <muh2000> group of commands is better but i tried that and it did not work.
[08:04] <tuxgeek> !suspend | Robr3rd
[08:04] <sacarlson> muh2000: but in any case you don't need the group just your user
[08:04] <back_homu> it works
[08:04] <Bibo> sacarlson: I know I should say that that's a bad idea for security reasons, but I do that...so yeah.
[08:04] <back_homu> thanks for your help B.ibo
[08:05] <Bibo> any time
[08:05] <sacarlson> muh2000: remind you I didn't provide the correct path to the files to your system, you have to add the full path name

[08:05] <Robr3rd> tuxgeek: Is ubottu sleeping?
[08:06] <initdv> how to connect that ? to dvi hdmi out ? dlp pico projector
[08:06] <initdv> normally for beagle board
[08:06] <initdv> but i never manage to get it working
[08:06] <initdv> so i connect it to pc
[08:06] <tuxgeek> Robr3rd: ubottu knows nothing about my query...:)
[08:07] <sacarlson> muh2000: like this: sacarlson ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/encrypt_create.sh, /usr/sbin/encrypt_close.sh
[08:07] <initdv> but the screen is striped and dotted no visual representation :/
[08:07] <Robr3rd> tuxgeek: Ah. Well, that would do it, too. I was expecting a, "I don't know about [x]," for not knowing something, but I suppose not.
[08:07] <Bibo> initdv: You haven't exactly been clear about your inquiry
[08:07] <initdv> how to dualscreen ? howto 2screens ?
[08:08] <initdv> i have a dlp pico projector and i want it as second screen ... but dont know how to configure
[08:08] <tuxgeek> Robr3rd: got that as a pm...
[08:08] <CoJaBo> initdv: On a beagleboard? Don't those usually only support one display?
[08:09] <initdv> can i run ubuntu on beagleboard ?
[08:09] <Bibo> Robr3rd: It seems to be a common issue, I have that same problem, and I couldn't fix it. So I'm just living with the issue which isn't that optimal. XFCE would probably give you less issues related to X.
[08:09] <initdv> can i connect dlp pico to pc ?
[08:09] <CoJaBo> initdv: Yes.
[08:09] <initdv> how ?
[08:09] <initdv> and as second screen ?
[08:09] <auronandace> Robr3rd: how much ram do you have?
[08:09] <initdv> where do i buy a laserkeyboard ?
[08:09] <Bibo> Settings > Display
[08:09] <auronandace> Robr3rd: and how much swap space?
[08:09] <Robr3rd> Bibo: And it is a fairly recent issue for you as well? Starting only after an update about a week ago or so?
[08:10] <CoJaBo> initdv: It has to be installed to an SD card, but its fully supported; you may have to get the embedded/light version tho.
[08:10] <initdv> howto install ?
[08:10] <initdv> i have microsd and sd apadater
[08:10] <initdv> i had :/
[08:10] <Bibo> I did a clean install of Ubuntu and I've only used Gnome Shell. The crashes are random though.
[08:10] <cipher__> can i receive input and display to my screen via hdmi without an nvidia driver?
[08:10] <CoJaBo> initdv: If you google beagleboard ubuntu, theres several guides; you may need to find that adaptor tho..
[08:10] <initdv> my mini usb broke on beagle board
[08:10] <initdv> adapter ?
[08:11] <CoJaBo> If it takes a microsd or whatever
[08:11] <initdv> i get my shot on friday o_0
[08:11] <Robr3rd> auronandace: 3.5GB of RAM, and 2GB swap -- this happens even with no applications open, though, and no loose canon programs (by looking at top and gnome-control-panel (or whatever it's called))
[08:11] <CoJaBo> initdv: IIRC, the files have to be copied to it via a PC.
[08:11] <initdv> ah k
[08:11] <auronandace> Robr3rd: you need at least the same amount of swap as ram
[08:11] <Robr3rd> Bibo: I see. How long ago did you install?
[08:11] <initdv> is ther a downloader/installer AIO or soemthing ?
[08:12] <initdv> beaglebuntu-downloader
[08:12] <Bibo> Robr3rd: a couple weeks ago.
[08:12] <initdv> pspbuntu-downloader
[08:12] <kapz> how can i remote ubuntu with android? gnme uses vino but most apps are designed for realvnc or tightvnc etc..hence it does not show live
[08:12] <Robr3rd> auronandace: Except that I've been using this same exact configuration from 10.10 with no problems, *and* I've been running Ubuntu 12.04 since its release date and have never had this problem before -- even when more than 3.5GB of RAM was being used.
[08:13] <Robr3rd> Bibo: *nods* So basically we wait it out until there's a fix? Have you found any preventative measures, or just restart X?
[08:13] <auronandace> Robr3rd: i have told you the solution, give it a try to see if the problem persists
[08:13] <tuxgeek> auronandace: no you don't...half of your taltal ram as swap space will do just fine
[08:13] <Aptar> Ubuntu vs Kubuntu ... what should I install?
[08:13] <tuxgeek> total*
[08:15] <initdv> ubuntuAIO-downloader (4mac 4pc 4psp 4beagle 4vita 4ps3)
[08:15] <auronandace> Aptar: whatever you want
[08:15] <Aptar> auronandace, Any major difference?
[08:15] <Bibo> Robr3rd: pretty much
[08:15] <auronandace> Aptar: kde vs unity
[08:15] <Robr3rd> Bibo: *nods* Alright, then. Thank you. :)
[08:16] <Aptar> auronandace, Neither is superior...
[08:16] <Aptar> just preference eh?
[08:16] <Bibo> Aptar: KDE
[08:16] <Bibo> performance wise Unity isn't that great in my experience.
[08:17] <auronandace> Aptar: yes, just whatever you are comfortable/work better with
[08:17] <Aptar> Bibo, Unity is that sliding bar crap right?
[08:17] <kapz> how can i remote ubuntu with android? gnme uses vino but most apps are designed for realvnc or tightvnc etc..hence it does not show live
[08:17] <Bibo> Aptar: It's the one with the Windows Taskbar on the left
[08:17] <sacarlson> kapz: ssh
[08:17] <Aptar> Bibo, Ah
[08:17] <Bibo> kapz: ssh, there's a ssh app on Android
[08:18] <Aptar> Bibo, KDE doesn't have this?
[08:18] <kapz> sacarlson, I meant remote desktop...
[08:18] <sacarlson> kapz: screens too small on my android to do remote desktop
[08:18] <Bibo> Aptar: nope
[08:19] <Bibo> There's also XFCE and Gnome Shell
[08:19] <back_homu> One question: if I download portable apps like Eclipse IDE, where is a good place to put these stuff?
[08:19] <kapz> Bibo, I want to re4mote desktop with my tablet
[08:19] <Aptar> Bibo, Ok. I'm with you, KDE wins.
[08:19] <zhanger> kapz: install x11vnc or something
[08:19] <sacarlson> kapz: you can remote operate vlc from your android
[08:20] <DarwinSurvivor> back_homu: why not just use the repository version?
[08:20] <DarwinSurvivor> away
[08:20] <back_homu> Eclipse has a repo version?
[08:20] <DarwinSurvivor> oops, wrong window :P
[08:20] <kapz> hmm I was hoping for some vino app...
[08:20] <DarwinSurvivor> it *should*, let me double-check
[08:20] <DarwinSurvivor> !find eclipse
[08:20] <back_homu> great
[08:20] <Bibo> back_homu: yep
[08:20] <back_homu> !find arduino
[08:20] <DarwinSurvivor> looks like it's there to me
[08:20] <kapz> I thought Legendary_Bibo liked gnome-shell...
[08:20] <back_homu> awesome
[08:21] <sacarlson> kapz: http://code.google.com/p/android-vnc-viewer/
[08:21] <Bibo> kapz: I do, and I use it.
[08:21] <back_homu> is synaptic pkg manager gone?
[08:21] <auronandace> back_homu: no, just not installed by default
[08:21] <Bibo> back_homu: yeah, but you can reinstall it through the ubuntu software center
[08:21] <DarwinSurvivor> back_homu: it's not installed by default, but you can always install it from the repository
[08:21] <kapz> sacarlson, thanks I already installed it, but the screen does not move/respond just the mouse....
[08:22] <back_homu> iirc if i install it, it overrides the USC doesn't it
[08:22] <Bibo> disable composition
[08:22] <kapz> in the app you mean?
[08:22] <Bibo> back_homu: I dont' think so, I just know that the system doesn't like it when you have them both open.
[08:23] <sacarlson> kapz: I'm not sure how they would simulate a mouse with a touch screen
[08:23] <back_homu> oh yeah thanks
[08:23] <initdv> so how do i configure an extra screen dlp pico projector in pc ubuntu 64 ?
[08:23] <Bibo> kapz: no disable compiz on the computer running Ubuntu if you're using VNC. For some reason VNC won't refresh when the system is running compiz
[08:24] <kapz> sacarlson, the app does it for ya....pocketcloud is one of them apps
[08:24] <cvr> hi, just wondering how everyone deals with watching mythtv on ubuntu and dealing with the launcher?
[08:24] <DarwinSurvivor> back_homu: you can use as many apt managers as you like (apt-get, synaptic, aptitude, usc), just try not to have more than 1 *running* at the same time (they *should* lock each other out safely though)
[08:24] <kapz> Bibo, am using gnome-shell..should I fall back to 2D mode...
[08:24] <Bibo> kapz: basically logout, then click on the little gear and switch to Ubuntu 2d
[08:24] <Bibo> yes
[08:25] <back_homu> Thanks
[08:25] <Bibo> Gnome Classic I believe
[08:25] <kapz> k got it, thanks
[08:25] <back_homu> what article should i look if i want to install a different desktop environment
[08:25] <denysonique> Hi
[08:26] <denysonique> How can I disable NginX from starting automatically in Ubuntu 11.10?
[08:26] <tuxgeek> kapz: gnome classic (no effect) shld suffice
[08:27] <back_homu> !kde
[08:27] <back_homu> cool
[08:28] <back_homu> so is the dock or whatever is called
[08:29] <back_homu> supposed to contain all the most-used apps
[08:29] <back_homu> because the all apps screen is horrible to browse
[08:29] <Bibo> back_homu: Well, KDE has a polished look to it, and many users find it similar to Windows. Gnome Shell is completely unique and may remind you of an Android tablet (it works really well for touchpads, but is annoying to use with a mouse imo). XFCE is very much like Gnome 2 now, and is very lightweight, and even has its own built in compositor. Unity is umm...slow, and odd, and annoying (this is just my opinion anyways).
[08:29] <back_homu> heh
[08:29] <back_homu> i agree Unity being poopy
[08:30] <back_homu> I'm with KDE or Gnome
[08:30] <zhanger> i'm used to gnome, but kde looks pretty sick too
[08:30] <back_homu> hmm i use windows and android
[08:30] <back_homu> they both appeal to me
[08:31] <Bibo> the new kde is nice, but I had a quirk where the buttons kept moving on their own
[08:31] <Bibo> the buttons on the panel
[08:32] <back_homu> is it more like a mac os dock where all the apps are there
[08:32] <back_homu> or more like windows where only the chosen are there
[08:33] <cvr> hi, just wondering how everyone deals with watching mythtv on ubuntu and dealing with the launcher?
[08:33] <Bibo> back_homu: which one are you referring to?
[08:33] <kevinp> helloi get this error when trying to install dhcp3-server dhcp3-server: Desknds: dhcp3-common (= 3.1.3-2ubuntu3.2) but
[08:33] <back_homu> the panel or something in Unity
[08:33] <tuxgeek> !patience | cvr
[08:33] <back_homu> i don't get the design principle
[08:33] <Bibo> cvr: You could have it run at login
[08:33] <kevinp> how do i downgrade dhcp-common?
[08:34] <Bibo> back_homu: it's like the windows taskbar
[08:34] <back_homu> eh
[08:34] <back_homu> then i really don't like Unity
[08:34] <back_homu> better change asap
[08:35] <cvr> Bibo, Im not looking to use the machine as a permanent frontend, I just sit down at my desktop and like to watch tv/recordings on one of the monitors
[08:35] <Bibo> You have your favorites, but also running applications have an icon that shows up
[08:35] <back_homu> Which do you like
[08:35] <back_homu> KDE or Gnome
[08:35] <Bibo> back_homu: Gnome
[08:36] <back_homu> !gnome
[08:36] <back_homu> ;_;
[08:36] <back_homu> oh ok
[08:36] <Bibo> back_homu: in the new ubuntus it's called gnome shell
[08:36] <back_homu> how would i open that
[08:36] <Bibo> try googling some screenshots of it as well
[08:36] <minas> Hi. I want to install the FGLRX proprietary driver on my laptop (12.04), but when I try to, I get an error. I have checked the log (/var/log/jockey.log) but I understand nothing from it...
[08:37] <back_homu> !search gnome-tweak-tool
[08:37] <Bibo> back_homu: you can install it from the software center (or the sudo apt-get install gnome-shell command) then logout and click on the gear icon next to your user name then click on the different desktop environment
[08:38] <back_homu> thanks
[08:38] <Bibo> cvr: What's wrong with the launcher?
[08:39] <Bibo> minas: post the log on pastebin please
[08:40] <minas> Bibo: http://pastebin.com/PQxFEF8n
[08:41] <cvr> Bibo, it sits on the side of the screen and pushes the tv image across into the next screen the width of the launcher. and auto hide launcher doesn't provide a good or consistent experience
[08:44] <mayfive> my nVidia 6150 LE video card doesn't work with 12.04LTS - it does in all the rest - any suggestions?
[08:46] <initdv> so howto debug a scanning pciture tuner but no channels ?.?
[08:48] <Bibo> minas: Well from what I can see is that can't find the module. Something is happening to where it has to fall back, but I can't see why. :/
[08:49] <Bibo> initdv: please use complete sentences, and tell us as much as you can.
[08:50] <minas> Bibo: It couldn't be installed on 11.10 as well... Anyway, thanks for your help.
[08:51] <denysonique> How do I manage services in Ubuntu 11.10?
[08:51] <Bibo> minas: That's actually when I started having problems with the FGLRX driver as well.
[08:51] <denysonique> What is the command to manage services in 11.10?
[08:51] <initdv> i cant tell sentences
[08:51] <minas> Bibo: Have people reported it if you know?
[08:51] <CoJaBo> denysonique: Wasn't it upstart or something?
[08:51] <Bibo> mayfive: what kind of issues?
[08:52] <mayfive> Bibo: install works but after logon the screen just goes blank
[08:52] <back_homu> darn it
[08:53] <back_homu> forgot my query
[08:53] <Bibo> minas: I think so. I did get it to install once, but it ended up giving me more problems than the open source drivers.
[08:53] <back_homu> !java
[08:54] <Bibo> mayfive: Does it work with Ubuntu 2D?
[08:54] <back_homu> does the openJDK have problems?
[08:54] <bhavesh> My gnome-tweak-tool does not start and this is what I get in terminal. "(gnome-tweak-tool:3681): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: Settings schema 'org.gnome.shell.extensions.user-theme' is not installed
[08:54] <bhavesh> Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)"
[08:54] <back_homu> is it slower?
[08:54] <mayfive> Bibo: yes
[08:54] <Bibo> back_homu: It sucks for minecraft, otherwise it works fine
[08:54] <back_homu> darn
[08:54] <back_homu> i had minecraft.net open
[08:55] <back_homu> i'll take the time to install the one from oracle then :P
[08:55] <bhavesh> I tried install Sun Java but couldn't
[08:56] <back_homu> bhavesh: what happened?
[08:56] <Bibo> bhavesh: That error has to do with the plugin for gnome tweak tool that lets you change the shell theme
[08:57] <pungi_man> bhavesh, u can install it by    :      sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk
[08:57] <asdasdass> http://db.tt/IuWGaSPd
[08:57] <pehden> any one know how to make apache2 not log one ip address
[08:57] <bhavesh> Well I was talking about Sun Java pungi_man
[08:57] <asdasdass> http://db.tt/IuWGaSPd
[08:58] <bhavesh> Bibo: yup, gnome-tweak-tool breaks down after installing user theme extension from extensions.gnome.org
[08:58] <initdv> uint08 what does that mean in code ?
[08:58] <Bibo> asdasdass seems to be a bot trying to get dropbox referrals
[08:58] <theadmin> asdasdass: Stop this.
[08:58] <minas> Bibo: For me, there are three drivers I can install. The open source one, the fglrx and the fglrx post-release update. The open source (which I use now) is good, but I read the proprietary one is a lot faster. If I use the second (fglrx but not the update), which I used to, I had a lot of problems. Freezing while running, freezing when shutting down, logging out by itself (and then after logging back in the screen would tear like crazy)...
[08:58] <minas> I think I might post to askubuntu if I don't find anything there.
[08:58] <theadmin> initdv: Depends on the language, "uint" obviously means unsigned integer.
[08:59] <initdv> what if its an error in gxemul ?
[08:59] <Bibo> bhavesh: aw, uninstall it. I checked not too long ago and they don't have it built for the latest version of the tweak tool
[08:59] <bhavesh> back_homu, I tried installing Sun java but it didn't ever showed up in java -version or when you right click on .jar files.. which means java isnt installed...
[08:59] <initdv> in trying to compile it
[08:59] <back_homu> ah
[08:59] <initdv> but dont make it thru configure
[08:59] <initdv> mingw64 w32
[08:59] <theadmin> initdv: Eh, sorry, Windows isn't supported here.
[09:00] <theadmin> initdv: Ask elsewhere, on ##windows for instance
[09:00] <back_homu> where did openJRE  7 go
[09:00] <initdv> yah but its merly crosscompiling
[09:00] <t_oink> Hello, anyone can help me out? i'am trying to play a simple stream .mp3 (radio station) with nyxmms2. but now i get 'Could not connect to server at default path'. i was trying the  server config output.plugin, but messed it up, how can i reset this?
[09:00] <initdv> if it works i make a ubuntu build
[09:00] <asdasdass>  http://db.tt/IuWGaSPd - Free Storage 2
[09:00] <initdv> :/
[09:01] <Dotman14> Help. I cant boot Ubuntu at system startup.
[09:01] <Dotman14> I have the partition already
[09:01] <bhavesh> Dotman14, you don't get the grub list?
[09:01] <back_homu> if i install openJDK, does it come with JRE?
[09:01] <Dotman14> And the Disk is in my drive
[09:01] <bhavesh> Dotman14, did it happen after installing windows?
[09:01] <Dotman14> What grub list
[09:02] <Bibo> minas: Hmmmm...try the first FGLRX driver. Other than that I don't know what else to say. :/
[09:02] <Dotman14> Windows was there already
[09:02] <Dotman14> Then i partitioned it to take linux
[09:02] <bhavesh> Dotman14, this grub list: http://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/sshot-3.png
[09:02] <initdv> o_0
[09:02] <Bibo> Grub is the bootloader. It's a menu that shows up that shows all the operating systems you have installed
[09:02] <bhavesh> or are you using wubi?
[09:03] <initdv> how do i pass test uint9 testapp in configure of gxemul in code ?
[09:03] <bhavesh> !grub | Dotman14
[09:03] <Dotman14> Where can i download GRUB ?
[09:03] <bhavesh> you should not download it, it installs when you install ubuntu, Dotman14
[09:03] <bhavesh> Dotman14, how did you install Ubuntu?
[09:03] <Bibo> did you use Wubi?
[09:04] <asdasdass> http://db.tt/IuWGaSPd - Free Storage
[09:06] <Dotman14> What i've done so far is that i partitioned my hard disc. I have SuSE CD now. What should I do next.
[09:07] <theadmin> Dotman14: SuSE is not supported here
[09:07] <Bibo> install Suse onto the empty partiton
[09:07] <Dr_Willis> what are you trying to do. ;)
[09:07] <bhavesh> how is SUSE related to Ubuntu?
[09:07] <Dotman14> okay
[09:07] <Dotman14> Sorry...
[09:07] <initdv> ../../include/refcount_ptr.h:233:3: error: ‘ptrdiff_t’ was not declared in this scope
[09:07] <initdv> in ubuntu
[09:07] <Dotman14> Ubuntu
[09:07] <Bibo> I think what happened was that all the other channels were pretty much empty so people come here for support
[09:07] <Bibo> that's my guess anyways
[09:08] <Dr_Willis> ;)
[09:08] <Dr_Willis> Bibo:  seen people give that reason befor for  why this channel should support all ubuntu variants..  :)  it dident work out that way.. heh
[09:08] <Bibo> initdv: Why are you asking programming questions?
[09:09] <Bibo> Dr_Willis: ah, I would imagine it gets a bit cluttered.
[09:09] <Dotman14> Please what can I do next. Thanks
[09:09] <Dotman14> Ubuntu CD now
[09:10] <Dr_Willis> Dotman14:  what are you trying to do exactly?
[09:10] <Dotman14> I have partitioned my hard disc, and I have Ubuntu CD in the drive at system start up, but it still loads Windows.
[09:11] <Dotman14> What should I do next
[09:11] <Dr_Willis> mke the bios boot the cd
[09:11] <Bibo> Dotman14: You need to go into your bios and change the boot order
[09:11] <Dotman14> Yes I did that by pressing F10
[09:11] <Dr_Willis> or use whatever key on the pc lets you pick what device to b oot.. and puick the cd
[09:11] <Bibo> When you reboot hit the F2 key furiously
[09:12] <Bibo> or F10, or whatever key it is
[09:12] <Dr_Willis> if the cd is not booting...    we have to wonder how you made the cd
[09:12] <Dr_Willis> i got pcs that use esc, or del. or f8 to puck what to boot.
[09:12] <bhavesh> Dotman14, When your Monitor starts, it shows what key you have to press for loading boot preferences(if available)
[09:13] <rs265> hello, I have an issue with Ubuntu 12.04 that is causing fairly frequent hanging of my computer.  I am not sure how to debug.  Could someone help?  Thanks.
[09:13] <sas> Hi. Does anyone has any problem with Western Digital Carivar Black Hard Drive? My problem is i have 2 hard drive. Samsung and WD. 12.04 installer not seeing WD. Any idea?
[09:13] <Dr_Willis> too bad the pc makers cant agree on some common sence standards
[09:13] <Bibo> HP dv7 laptops do not let you access the bios :P.
[09:14] <Bibo> but live cds work fine, you just can't do live usbs
[09:14] <maddinw> Hello everyone.
[09:14] <Dotman14> This is what i'm seeing....CD- ROM   Enabled, Floppy Boot   Disabled, Internal Network Adapter Boot Disabled
[09:14] <Dotman14> Is this correct?
[09:14] <bhavesh> Dotman14, you should look at the boot order
[09:14] <sas> Live usb? is it problem for installation?
[09:14] <maddinw> I am having trouble with Ubuntu. Suddenly.
[09:15] <Bibo> Dotman14: You need to change the boot order
[09:15] <maddinw> For some reason, I can't use my mouse anymore, I have no sound and no wlan.
[09:15] <bhavesh> Dotman14, if your order contains CD before hard drive it will boot from your bootable CD
[09:15] <maddinw> I managed to restore the mouse functionality by insmod-ing a module, but this doesnt explain what is changed.
[09:15] <bhavesh> rs265, it depends on your RAM, no of CPU's you could try using Ubuntu 2D or decreasing the number of startup applications
[09:16] <Bibo> maddinw: Have you tried rebooting?
[09:16] <maddinw> The module wl for example wont load regardless. I can't load modules via modprobe, they are simply not found.
[09:16] <maddinw> Bibo, several times.
[09:16] <pehden-away> any one know how to make apache2 not log one ip address
[09:16] <maddinw> wl for example wont load at all. Regardless of what I do.
[09:17] <emanuele> hello, I've installed precise on my new acer ultrabook with elantech touchpad, but I cannot use my right click button. here's the results of xinput -list and synclient -l. http://paste.ubuntu.com/1031736/ Can anyone help me?
[09:17] <Bibo> maddinw: What card do you have?
[09:17] <rs265> Bhavesh - I have 8 gigs and a new ivy bridge chip.  I don't believe it is caused by the RAM.  The other OS is perfectly stable.  Any logs that I could look at that might provide at least some ideas?
[09:17] <maddinw> Bibo: What wlan card you mean?
[09:18] <Bibo> maddinw: lshw
[09:18] <Bibo> that'll tell you everything about your hardware
[09:18] <maddinw> I didnt knew that command.
[09:18] <maddinw> I used lspci so far.
[09:19] <Bibo> I think lshw | grep wlan will shorten it to just your wireless card
[09:20] <maddinw> Did that, no results.
[09:20] <bhavesh> rs265, did you take a look at your system monitor?
[09:20] <fenrig> I'm updating my ubuntu system, and the updater hangs on "post installation update-notifier-common", because of that compiz crashed, and restarting is not an option because there are images missing or incompletely stored
[09:20] <maddinw> lspci, however, returns Broadcom Corporation BCM4313
[09:21] <Problemsolves> hi
[09:21] <OerHeks> !b43
[09:21] <maddinw> It worked perfectly until before.
[09:21] <Problemsolves> someone german here got a little problem
[09:21] <Problemsolves> ?
[09:22] <fenrig> I meant restarting compiz, and I don't know too much about ubuntu, to know what to do -.- it actually really annoys me that a stupid update can cause this
[09:22] <emanuele> fenrig: try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, see what happens
[09:22] <theadmin> !de | Problemsolves
[09:22] <Dr_Willis> sudo lshw -class network
[09:22] <Dr_Willis> ;)
[09:22] <Bibo> maddinw: Well you could try pulseaudio -k to restart sound
[09:23] <fenrig> emanuele: I'm still waiting for the updater to finish, I did not restart my system yet
[09:23] <initdv> so howto tvtuner | so howto dlp pico micro projector second screen 800x600 | howto gxemul ubuntu ?.?
[09:23] <rs265> Bhavesh - what about system monitor?  What am I looking for?  The weird part is that the system is perfectly stable if I leave it completely alone.  It seems to hang only when I am doing something whether it is browsing or listening to songs - haven't found one consistent task that causes the hang.
[09:23] <maddinw> Dr_Willis, havent we met over in #gentoo?
[09:23] <fenrig> emanuele: I just went away and used you're command, and well the lock file in /var/lib/dpkg/lock is locked obviously
[09:23] <maddinw> Bibo: No process to terminate.
[09:23] <Dr_Willis> maddinw:  not used gentoo in several years
[09:24] <initdv> kill -999 kline
[09:24] <Dr_Willis> bbl
[09:24] <emanuele> fenrig: oh, right, just restart now, it seems the updater froze
[09:24] <maddinw> Anyway, what do you want to know from lshw -class network?
[09:24] <Bibo> maddinw: sorry I couldn't help, but it's time for me to hit the hay
[09:25] <maddinw> No problem. Thank you anyway.
[09:25] <fenrig> emanuele: and there is no way of unfreezing it
[09:25] <maddinw> I noticed that a lot of kernel modules arent loaded anymore.
[09:26] <emanuele> fenrig: restarting is the quickest
[09:26] <initdv> no uint_08_T
[09:26] <initdv> t
[09:26] <initdv> what lib do i need ?
[09:26] <initdv> -dev*
[09:27] <fenrig> emanuele: okay I issued a reboot ;) this is kind of crappy that such a update kills the whole system, or the whole unity interface to be more precise
[09:29] <emanuele> fenrig: now try to update using sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-geti dist-upgrade and see what happens
[09:30] <fenrig> emanuele: why do a dist upgrade?
[09:32] <emanuele> fenrig: the update options scans for new packages in the repositories, the dist-upgrade updates them. It is what the graphical updater does automatically
[09:32] <fenrig> emanuele: i removed the locks on apt lists and dpkg, no I'm getting problems with dpkg, they are recommending me to do a "dpkg --configure -a"
[09:32] <emanuele> *option
[09:32] <emanuele> fenrig: right, try sudo dpkg -a. It is normal when an update process is interrupted
[09:33] <pehden-away> pm me if any one knows how to make apache2 not log one ip address
[09:33] <fenrig> emanuele: okay it lookslike it's finishing the updates that were meant to be installed after the updater froze :) that looks promising
[09:33] <emanuele> fenrig: sorry, it is dpkg --configure -a
[09:34] <fenrig> emanuele: yeah I got that ;)
[09:34] <VaSy_> ;)
[09:35] <emanuele> fenrig: good! it seems you solved the problem! ;(
[09:35] <emanuele> *:)
[09:36] <fenrig> emanuele: thx for you're help, I'm used to the archlinux way of updating and upgrading, and I don't know a lot of ubuntu specific things. So thanks for helping out, I'm glad the frozen updater didn't kill the whole system :)
[09:36] <fenrig> *your help
[09:37] <emanuele> fenrig: apt is a powerful tool ;)
[09:37] <Dr_Willis> apt can be a very fragile tool. ;(
[09:38] <Dr_Willis> package management is a complex task..
[09:39] <fenrig> emanuele: thank god, but then again it kind of cause the problem on this own so, I do tend to take that with a grain of salt
[09:41] <rs265> Bhavesh?  Any one else?  Please help
[09:41] <bhavesh> rs265, sorry, I cannot help you :(
[09:41] <fenrig> oh yeah, I'm have a bit of problems with guake binding to keys in ubuntu, i tend to use ² as key to show up guake, but I have to reset it every boot so it works accordingly, so I was wondering if there are any gconf settings I can edit so I don't have this problem anymore
[09:42] <rs265> Any one else?
[09:42] <Dr_Willis> guake  is a bit old so it may have issues with gnome shell/unity.
[09:43] <fenrig> Dr_Willes: besides the key binding's it actually works quite good
[09:45] <fenrig> emanuele: the dpkg thing is now erroring as wel -.-
[09:45] <rs265> Hanging system....other OS stable.  Ubuntu stable if left alone but hangs often when browsing/listening to songs.  Not sure what is causing it.  Any logs to check?

[10:10] <Seryth> Hey everyone. I've recently updated to 12.04 from 11.10, using Obuntu (openbox + ubuntu). Since the update, I've not been able to view anything that involves Flash Player in my browser. I've tried Nightly, Aurora, and Chromium, and none of them are working. What should I do?
[10:13] <maddinw> Seryth, try sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[10:13] <maddinw> If you didnt already do that of course.
[10:14] <MonkeyDust> Seryth  also try html5
[10:14] <Seryth> maddinw: I did, and it was already installed. I've just found an addon called FlashWizard or something, and it's doing stuff to get it working...hopefully this will work
[10:14] <Seryth> MonkeyDust: Yeah, but I also need flash for some work I'm doing at the moment...or at least, flash enabled sites.
[10:15] <Seryth> maddinw: FlashAid, it's called
[10:16] <theadmin> Seryth: Is libflashplayer.so in /usr/share/mozilla/plugins (or whatever the heck the folder is?)
[10:18] <miden> yo
[10:24] <Somelauw> Hi, why is php-pear not available in the packages anymore?
[10:25] <MonkeyDust> Somelauw  what's the exact package name?
[10:26] <Somelauw> MonkeyDust: Not sure. I think I used to have it available when I installed php5-common, but now I can't find it anymore.
[10:26] <theadmin> !find php-pear
[10:26] <theadmin> Uh...
[10:26] <d8bhatta> Hello I have installed windows xp into linux using vmware, but I am not able to paste copied files ( copied from ubuntu drive)    into newly installed xp ...any idea how can I get it done?
[10:26] <theadmin> Somelauw: ^
[10:26] <theadmin> !info php-pear | Somefellow
[10:26] <theadmin> whoops, sorry
[10:27] <MonkeyDust> !info php-pear
[10:27] <MonkeyDust> theadmin  was faster :)
[10:28] <Somelauw> Oh, nevermind I couldn't find it because I already installed it. Also I forgot to rehash my application list, so I couldn't find pear either.
[10:28] <Somelauw> thanks
[10:29] <ejo> Hi all... I'm running 12.04... how can I determine my system's default stdin/stdout character encoding?  I was assuming it was utf-8 but you know what happens when you assume.
[10:29] <theadmin> Why was Seamonkey removed from repos anyway? It is in oneiric/universe, but not in Precise at all
[10:30] <d8bhatta> Hello I have installed windows xp into linux using vmware, but I am not able to paste copied files ( copied from ubuntu drive)    into newly installed xp ...any idea how can I get it done?
[10:30] <Somelauw> Not sure if this is even the preferred way to install php modules but it works.
[10:30] <ejo> Also I'd be glad to hear any reformulation of my question if it's miscategorized.  For example maybe the default stdin/stdout encoding is a feature not of my whole ubuntu system overall but of my chosen shell?
[10:31] <ejo> d8bhatta: I don't know vmware as well as virtualbox, but I can tell you that in virtualbox there is a simple setting associated with your vbox instance which controls whether cut & paste are allowed one way or two ways or not at all.
[10:32] <MonkeyDust> isnt vmware 3rd party?
[10:32] <MonkeyDust> !find vmware
[10:33] <ejo> d8bhatta: So it seems likely that vmware has a similar setting if you dig for it.
[10:35] <d8bhatta> ejo: thanks for the head up, I am trying to get in into it, but there I cannot see any such option which can enable me copy and paste
[10:36] <pikaciu> d8bhatta: Copy and Paste options are, by default, disabled for security reasons
[10:36] <ejo> Does my question about 12.04's default stdin/stdout character encoding make sense?
[10:37] <d8bhatta> actually I want to clear what i want to do...I am copying photoshop installation files into vmware workstation...and install it there..pikaciu: can you pls let me  know where should I go to enable them?
[10:38] <theadmin> ejo: echo $LANG | perl -e '$enc = split(".", <STDIN>); print "$enc\n";' # This will show you your current system encoding
[10:38] <MonkeyDust> d8bhatta  disabling security is not supported here, i guess
[10:38] <theadmin> ...or not
[10:39] <theadmin> ejo: echo $LANG, look at the part after the .
[10:39] <d8bhatta> MonkeyDust: how can I get such files from another drive into vmware?
[10:39] <pikaciu> d8bhatta: using vSphere ?
[10:39] <d8bhatta> no..vmware pikaciu:
[10:39] <d8bhatta> vmware player
[10:39] <ejo> theadmin: thank you!  a simple echo $LANG gave me en_US.UTF-8 as expected.  OK that helps move my enquiry to the next level.
[10:39] <MonkeyDust> d8bhatta  try creating a shared folder, to which you have access on the virtual machine
[10:40] <ejo> there's no perl in my working environment thank goodness :D
[10:40] <d8bhatta> MonkeyDust:  make sense..let me try
[10:40] <theadmin> ejo: That's weird, it comes by default on Ubuntu
[10:40] <ejo> theadmin: sorry, only sort of joking about the "thank goodness" part.  I'm a python programmer and work inside of "virtualenvs"
[10:41] <ejo> perfectly happy to use perl where needed, was just kidding around, but it's true that I don't by default include it in virtualenv setups except where needed.  Pardon the noise
[10:42] <Gosset_Inofensiu> hi everybody, yesterday I made a shutdown -h 06:00 and now I see the logs: http://pastebin.com/QUE9ue3J
[10:42] <d8bhatta> MonkeyDust: sharedfolder is disabled in my machine
[10:43] <Gosset_Inofensiu> is it ok?
[10:43] <pikaciu> d8bhatta: Open the virtual machine settings editor (VM > Settings), click the Options tab and select Guest isolation.
[10:43] <ohno-lolz> !quantal
[10:43] <theadmin> Gosset_Inofensiu: Looks perfectly fine to me
[10:43] <Wawaiftyid> How to turn a router into a modem under Ubuntu?
[10:43] <Gosset_Inofensiu> thanks theadmin it didn't to me xD
[10:43] <MonkeyDust> d8bhatta  that's not what i mean: create a folder with an easy name, then copy your files there, then go to that folder in vmware
[10:44] <krababbel> Wawaiftyid: doesn't have anything to do with ubuntu
[10:44] <Wawaiftyid> krababbel, what?
[10:44] <wylde_> !ot | Wawaiftyid this
[10:44] <krababbel> Wawaiftyid: turninga router into a modem
[10:45] <theadmin> Wawaiftyid: Well unless the router is running Ubuntu (which isn't likely)...
[10:45] <krababbel> I forgot that
[10:45] <Wawaiftyid> My PC is running in Ubuntu.
[10:45] <theadmin> Wawaiftyid: Then it's offtopic, because your router has nothing to do with your PC.
[10:45] <MonkeyDust> Wawaiftyid  your pc, not your router, they are different 'machines'
[10:45] <Wawaiftyid> Oh, ok. Sorry. I will go to #ubuntu-offtopic then.
[10:45] <krababbel> Wawaiftyid: usually a router can be configured in a gui with firefox, or with telnet
[10:46] <wylde_> Wawaiftyid: try #hardware
[10:46] <Wawaiftyid> Ok, thanks for the ehlp anyway.
[10:46] <Wawaiftyid> *help
[10:46] <d8bhatta> MonkeyDust: I cannot go to any of my ubuntu folder through vmware
[10:47] <MonkeyDust> d8bhatta  hmm, ok
[10:47] <damms005> pls how can i transfer files from my ipad to my ubuntu?
[10:47] <Seryth> damms005: Dropbox? Upload them to a site? Plug in your iPad?
[10:47] <MonkeyDust> d8bhatta  try online storage, like dropbox or so
[10:49] <damms005> Seryth: I just want to copy the files on my ipad to my laptop
[10:51] <d8bhatta>  MonkeyDust: online storage is not possible because I do have 500mb of file....
[10:51] <d8bhatta> an really we cannot copy files into vmware..it sucks!
[10:52] <LinXz> &save
[10:52] <erinaceus_> Evening, I was wondering, during the installation of ubuntu is it possible to tell the installer not to overwrite files on the home and root partition?
[10:52] <MonkeyDust> d8bhatta  do have more than one pc?
[10:52] <MonkeyDust> you*
[10:53] <wylde_> d8bhatta: I use Virtualbox and I am able to share my ubuntu folders with the VM through settings. Never used VMware though.
[10:53] <pikaciu> d8bhatta: maybe dual boot .
[10:53] <ejo> d8bhatta: if you drop vmware and do this with virtualbox instead you will have no problem.
[10:53] <ejo> virtualbox is commonly thought to be easier to set up too --
[10:53] <ejo> yesterday I installed virtualbox and the free demo of Windows 8 in about an hour no problem
[10:53] <MonkeyDust> and vbox is better supported here :)
[10:54] <damms005> Please anybody: how can I copy the files on my ipad to my laptop
[10:54] <erinaceus_> damms005: Does you Laptop recognize the Ipad as a USB-Device?
[10:54] <erinaceus_> *your
[10:55] <ejo> ipad: good luck with incredibly proprietary device xD
[10:56] <damms005> erinaceus_: it does not recognize it(if it does, the GUI will automatically pop-up a window for it; or it appears as sdb1 in /dev folder)
[10:56] <sage__> Guys, i have installed these restricted drivers and my ubuntu just doesn't boot up. The screen goes blank and power led of the monitor starts blinking..
[10:57] <sage__> Any way to remove those drivers ?
[10:57] <Squarepy> damms005, why not go over the cloud with this ;)
[10:57] <damms005> erinaceus_: So does that means I cannot mount my ipad or view the files on it?
[10:57] <bhavesh> sage__ yup
[10:57] <erinaceus_> damms005: Do you have an option on your ipad that controls the behaviour of it when being connected to usb?
[10:58] <bhavesh> sage__  did you get the right click menu?
[10:58] <damms005> erinaceus_: nope
[10:58] <ejo> I don't think Steve Jobs would have been too into the idea of anyone mounting their ipad on a non-Apple system
[10:58] <bhavesh> sage__ did you see your pointer?
[10:58] <sage__> bhavesh,  fortunately i just booted up into ubuntu, it worked this time
[10:58] <bhavesh> sage__ good
[10:58] <sage__> but it does not work most of the times, so i want those drivers to be removed
[10:58] <erinaceus_> damms005: Well, then i'm out of ideas, upload it somewhere or use scp to your laptop.
[10:59] <erinaceus_> So... when i'm using the live cd, is it possible to remove it once the system has loaded?
[10:59] <damms005> erinaceus_: what is scp. Sorry if i'm disturbing
[11:00] <bhavesh> sage__ well you can remove them from addition drivers
[11:00] <sage__> where to find it ?
[11:00] <bhavesh> sage__ did you just try the [recommended] one or even the version-current?
[11:00] <pikaciu> secure copy
[11:00] <bhavesh> sage__ if you are using 12.04 with unity just type in additional drivers in dash
[11:00] <tiger> hello all
[11:00] <erinaceus_> damms005: Do you know what ssh is?
[11:01] <wylde_> !ssh | damms005
[11:01] <sage__> bhavesh can i pm u ?
[11:01] <bhavesh> k
[11:01] <damms005> erinaceus_: nothing about ssh
[11:01] <pikaciu> damms005 : install natty
[11:02] <pikaciu> sorry...
[11:02] <erinaceus_> take a look at what the bot gave you, but i would consider it an option, since you probably dont have a server running. Just upload it somewhere or put it on another device
[11:02] <pikaciu> damms005 : install putty
[11:02] <erinaceus_> *wouldnt ...
[11:02] <damms005> pikaciu: you guys are just full of it. What does putty...natty...naughty do?  :)
[11:03] <damms005> erinaceus_: Please where can I post a a picture to temporarily for you to view. I want to show you a Gparted image (like ubuntu pastebin. can it hold pictures also?)
[11:03] <pikaciu> damms005 : it helps you connecting with another machine
[11:03] <damms005> pikaciu: Please where can I post a a picture to temporarily for you to view. I want to show you a Gparted image (like ubuntu pastebin. can it hold pictures also?)
[11:04] <wylde_> !paste | damms005
[11:04] <MonkeyDust> damms005  ssh is the easiest / fastest way to connect to another machine -- putty is a graphical tool to do it
[11:04] <pikaciu> damms005 : go to synaptic manager and type 'putty'
[11:05] <erinaceus_> Does ubuntu have an ssh server automatically enabled?
[11:05] <MonkeyDust> erinaceus_  no, install openssh-server
[11:06] <wylde> erinaceus_: no, just 'sudo apt-get install openssh-server' to install it.
[11:06] <erinaceus_> MonkeyDust: Well considering that, it might not be the best idea to try to make damms use ssh, if he hasnt a server to put it on.
[11:06] <damms005> Please where can I post a a picture to temporarily for you to view. I want to show you a Gparted image.
[11:07] <wylde_> damms005: look at the bot's post above? ^
[11:07] <MonkeyDust> damms005  http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add
[11:07] <erinaceus_> So, how about my live disk question? Can i remove it once the system has loaded, or does it load dynamically from the disk?
[11:08] <wylde_> erinaceus_: no you can't. It will be looking there for data if you start any applications.
[11:08] <Dr_Willis> erinaceus_:  some live cd's have a toram option to put the whold cd in ram. Not sure if the latest ubuntu have that feature or not
[11:08] <MonkeyDust> erinaceus_  if all goes well, the system asks to remove to live disk and reboot
[11:08] <erinaceus_> thx
[11:09] <MonkeyDust> erinaceus_  mind: do you mean after installation?
[11:09] <mantas>  
[11:09] <Dr_Willis> after the installer finishes.. you normally reboot. :) to actually boot the installed system
[11:09] <erinaceus_> MonkeyDust: Nah, I meant during the installation, I was considering removing it so i could make another live disk with an updated version
[11:10] <MonkeyDust> erinaceus_  then my comment is not valid or useful :)
[11:10] <Dr_Willis> erinaceus_:  it might be worth checking google and askubuntu.com and the forums if the ubuntu cd's have a toram option. I was thinkign it did at one time. but I dont think the latest releases has it any more
[11:10] <Deskwizard> Good morning everyone!
[11:10] <Deskwizard> I have a quick question...
[11:10] <erinaceus_> dr_jesus: Seeing as how im using something like 9.10 right now, that should be a problem
[11:10] <MonkeyDust> Deskwizard  quick question are the most difficult to answer, shoot!
[11:10] <Deskwizard> is there any way to make Archive manager on 12.04 play nice with tar.bz archives? :S
[11:11] <erinaceus_> oops, i meant Dr_Willis
[11:11] <Deskwizard> lol MonkeyDust
[11:11] <Dr_Willis> Deskwizard:  it should handle them.
[11:11] <Dr_Willis> Deskwizard:  what is it not doing?
[11:11] <Deskwizard> Dr_Willis: gives an error message when I try to open them, work fine in Ark though ...
[11:12] <randomDude> Deskwizard: do you have bzip2 installed?
[11:12] <Dr_Willis> im not clear on how Archive Manager differs from Ark.
[11:12] <Dr_Willis> :) could be ive never used archive manager.
[11:12] <Deskwizard> Dr_Willis hehehehhe yeah, sorry for the noob GUI questions :P
[11:13] <Deskwizard> randomDude: that might be it, never thought of actually checking since the message was something along the line that the archive wasnt a bzip2 archive
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> is arhive manager that app that lets you mount iso files and so forth?
[11:13] <erinaceus_> Does someone know why ubuntu mounts my usbdisk when i try to format it?
[11:13] <Dr_Willis> Deskwizard:  sounds like the file/archive may be missnamed
[11:14] <cvr> erinaceus_, how are you trying to format the drive?
[11:14] <Deskwizard> Dr_Willis, randomDude : Thanks for the hints guys, I'll look into that :)
[11:14] <Dr_Willis> ive seen .gz files get missnamed to .bz and so forth.
[11:15] <erinaceus_> cvr: Nevermind, I managed to get him to format it.
[11:15] <wylde_> erinaceus_: the default udev behavior is to mount them. Just unmount it, and format.
[11:15] <Deskwizard> will give that a go, worse comes to worse, you are right, and I just have to rename the archive before and after loll :)
[11:15] <Guest98824> Hey. Just a quick question. Im now using a Dell Studio XPS laptop with windows 7, but i want to install ubuntu. Is it best to to a full format/reinstall, or is it just as good if i use the "windows installer", ive got alot of files that i dont want to loose, but i can ofc make a backup, but it takes some time.
[11:15] <subdesign> lol, its new for me: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1
[11:16] <Deskwizard> ubottu LMAO
[11:16] <Deskwizard> that is indeed an important bug to fix :)
[11:17] <dvs-> Anyone? Ubuntu doesent run on ntfs? So is it possible to have to filesystem on the same fysical hdd?
[11:18] <MonkeyDust> dvs-  technically, it's possible, i guess, but not adviced
[11:18] <dvs-> ok, so you would suggest a full format and reinstall?
[11:18] <Madpilot> dvs-, with partitions, yes of course. You have an NTFS partition, then an ext3 (4?) partition for Ubuntu
[11:18] <MonkeyDust> dvs-  but linux uses partitions
[11:18] <randomDude> MonkeyDust: that behavious is not exclusive to linux.
[11:19] <MonkeyDust> dvs-  and the linux partition will be formatted in ext4 or so
[11:19] <cvr> ntfs usese partitions aswell
[11:19] <randomDude> behaviour*
[11:19] <Deskwizard> just for knowledge purposes, any OSes not using partitions?
[11:19] <randomDude> no?
[11:19] <wylde_> dvs-: you would have to reszie your windows partition to make room for the ubuntu partition. hich takes time and is risky for your data. You should make proper backups regardless.
[11:19] <dvs-> so, it works just as good if i keep like 100 gb of my harddrive as NTFS (with all that is on it) and then convert the rest to ext3 for ubuntu?
[11:20] <Wawaiftyid> Although I have configured Ubuntu to choose VLC each time I open a audio/video file it opens with the default player. How to fix that?
[11:20] <randomDude> Wawaiftyid: you should provide screenshots that demonstrate why you believe you have set vlc as the default.
[11:21] <MonkeyDust> !install| dvs-
[11:21] <exicer> Hey guys, how can I see what is on my path?
[11:21] <dvs-> wylde_: oki, so its no more then a risk? What i was affraid of was that ubuntu wouldnt run as good on the partition then if the whole drive was ext3
[11:21] <Deskwizard> anyways, Thanks a lot guys :) Have a nice day!
[11:21] <erinaceus_> exicer: What exactly do you mean?
[11:21] <exicer> erinaceus_: I mean, how can I check where my terminal is looking for binaries
[11:22] <cvr> exicer, env | grep PATH
[11:22] <wylde_> dvs-: any time you manipulate partitions you risk losing data. Ubuntu can operate just fine on ntfs partitionsfor accessing data.
[11:22] <erinaceus_> cvr: Is there a difference to echo $PATH ?
[11:22] <Wawaiftyid> randomDude, Configuration → Details → Predeterminated aplications → Set «Music» and «Video» to VLC. It is in a Spanish Ubuntu, maybe I have translated bad.
[11:23] <wylde_> dvs-: proper backups should be made regularly regardless. :) I learned the hard way. Just trying to save someone else the same headaches
[11:23] <dvs-> Perfect, thanks guys. I did read the installation instructions, but didnt mention anything about this. Guess the only important thing is to make the partition for ubuntu large enough =)
[11:23] <exicer> cvr, erinaceus_: I get different results from doing those commands - echo $PATH was more what I was looking for
[11:24] <erinaceus_> exicer: If you are looking for the path of one program in particular try "which prog"
[11:24] <exicer> erinaceus_: That is incredibly useful
[11:25] <ejo> yes, "which" and "locate" should be mentioned to every new linux user!
[11:26] <ejo> save you a lot of time pursuing "find" commands
[11:26] <cvr> and man
[11:26] <ejo> yup
[11:26] <adamand> locate wont work with ecryptfs
[11:26] <adamand> it could, but kind of defeats the purpose
[11:26] <ejo> :(  poo.
[11:26] <ejo> ha yes
[11:28] <neurochrome> I see the latest Ubuntu alpha is out (12.10).  Why bother?  The current 12.04 seems pretty alpha to me.
[11:29] <LjL> neurochrome: there's no reason to use it unless you want to be a tester on a non-production machine.
[11:29] <neurochrome> it was a joke ;)
[11:30] <adamand> neurochrome, haha true...
[11:30] <neurochrome> but seriously, 12.04 is still majorly borken for me
[11:30] <cvr> neurochrome, what issues are you having
[11:30] <adamand> neurochrome, reinstalling from scratch as opposed to upgrading made a different for me
[11:30] <adamand> ^difference^
[11:30] <ejo> same here.
[11:30] <neurochrome> As soon as I've finished decorating the house I'm loading up Debian
[11:30] <neurochrome> It was a clean install
[11:31] <cvr> neurochrome, what desktop will you be using on debian?
[11:31] <neurochrome> to be fair, it's shell and various non-standard install apps that are causing issues
[11:31] <ejo> clean installs since about mid-May have gone better than clean installs right after 12.04 release, too.
[11:31] <neurochrome> but without them, ubuntu is useless to me
[11:31] <neurochrome> Evolution for instance
[11:31] <neurochrome> ejo, handy to know
[11:32] <neurochrome> selection focus in evolution is utterly knacked
[11:32] <neurochrome> supposed fix in the pipeline but too long in getting pushed to release
[11:32] <neurochrome> shell focus is all over the place too
[11:33] <neurochrome> guake fails to autostart, no matter what I do.
[11:33] <neurochrome> firefox freezes
[11:33] <neurochrome> as does the desktop at random intervals
[11:34] <neurochrome> cvr, was thinking dwm to be honest
[11:34] <neurochrome> leaving out the DE for a change
[11:34] <neurochrome> wheezy is ~800 bugs of being released as stable
[11:34] <cvr> neurochrome, I still experience those issues with debian on a few machines here running gnome-shell
[11:34] <ejo> I've got to say Firefox has terrible linux support this past year
[11:34] <neurochrome> cvr, yeah, ubuntu 12.04 is basically wheezys packages from what I gather
[11:35] <ejo> I've come close to dropping Firefox from my ubuntu machines several times since 2011
[11:35] <mtrg> firefox version what? thirty freaking teen?
[11:35] <neurochrome> ejo, yeah, FF was my fav browser, but it's on it's way out
[11:35] <mtrg> i hate how FF's versions are growing so rapidly
[11:35] <adamand> it's called Agile software development :P
[11:35] <adamand> some say "Fragile"
[11:35] <neurochrome> ejo, I use chromium for development now, with obvious testing in ff
[11:35] <Roo_lee> ubuntu.cn
[11:35] <neurochrome> mtrg, me too
[11:36] <ejo> Load up a photo sharing site in Firefox on linux and you'll see jpegs rendered with low color depth... gradients get artifacts that aren't shown in FF on other OSes
[11:36] <Roo_lee> 中文的在哪里？
[11:36] <ejo> neurochrome: yeah, chromebug is pretty good
[11:36] <MonkeyDust> !cn
[11:36] <mtrg> version numbers are not a toy. major version numbers should only increment when there is a major arch change that breaks APIs in a nasty way
[11:36] <wylde_> !cn | Roo_lee
[11:36] <neurochrome> chromebug?
[11:36] <neurochrome> what's wrong with chrome inspector?
[11:37] <neurochrome> I miss FF 1.0
[11:37] <neurochrome> ;)
[11:38] <kRush> is there a mouse gesture extension for chrome that doesn't suck?
[11:38] <mtrg> did ubuntu change its resolver into bind recently?
[11:39] <cla_> !addon
[11:39] <ejo> neurochrome: oh, I just haven't spent enough time on chrome and chrome inspector to know, sorry
[11:39] <theadmin> mtrg: They did, in 12.04
[11:39] <mtrg> i keep getting my resolv.conf change into nameserver 127.0.0.1 where a local named process is listening
[11:39] <neurochrome> ejo, no need to be sorry friend!
[11:39] <ejo> :) thanks
[11:39] <mtrg> theadmin: how was it done previously?
[11:40] <theadmin> mtrg: Honestly no idea, I think it *was* the resolv.conf way
[11:40] <neurochrome> ejo, I prefer it to firebug now
[11:40] <cla_> !addon
[11:40] <mtrg> theadmin: a process that was updating the resolv.conf file?
[11:41] <theadmin> mtrg: Nah, I mean the traditional way -- read resolv.conf and look up the names on the servers listed there
[11:41] <mtrg> theadmin: this sucks since my DHCP's DNS server is not added there
[11:41] <mtrg> theadmin: there = bind's config (since resolv.conf is always pointing at 127.0.0.1)
[11:41] <jrib> mtrg: the changes in 12.04 are in the release notes
[11:41] <jrib> !notes | mtrg
[11:41] <ejo> neurochrome: cool, thanks
[11:41] <neurochrome> no sweat
[11:41] <neurochrome> gtg
[11:41] <mtrg> thx jrib
[11:41] <neurochrome> peace guys
[11:42] <cvr> mtrg, on my install atleast dnsmasq is running and gets the dns info from network manager
[11:43] <mtrg> i don't have dnsmasq running
[11:43] <mtrg> oh, i'm using xubuntu; if it means anything
[11:43] <cvr> mtrg, are u using network manager?
[11:45] <mtrg> cvr: yep. runnning.
[11:45] <ham> Hello Guys, I was asking about the overheating bug in ubuntu , I installed a fresh 12.04 installation and I'm up2date but I still have overheating problems especially when running videos in my browser , I get very high cpu usage too (168 % in some cases)
[11:46] <theadmin> mtrg: You can configure DNS in NetworkManager, on the IPv4 tab in editing your connection
[11:46] <baconbacon123> Is ubuntu arm still being developed
[11:46] <mtrg> ham: movies in flash player?
[11:47] <ham> mtrg, yes
[11:47] <mtrg> theadmin: yep. but still does not updat emy bind's configs
[11:47] <mtrg> ham: the flash player from adobe? or hte opensource ones?
[11:48] <ham> mtrg, the one from adobe
[11:48] <mtrg> ham: then complain to adobe. they suck. they didn't develop a nice player for linux
[11:48] <Nicekiwi> how do i make nautilus see my Windows Install DVD as a DVD? It just says its a UDF volume
[11:49] <mtrg> ham: also depends on the movie you are watching. can you give me a link? i'll see if i can run it on my PC if it's from a trusted site like youtube
[11:53] <theadmin> Nicekiwi: Uh, DVDs ARE UDF volumes.
[11:54] <ham> mtrg, may be you're right most videos that cause problem may be wasn't youtube videos
[11:54] <ham> mtrg, I'll double check that, thanks
[11:56] <ham> mtrg, the problem I think is not related only to videos
[11:57] <Nicekiwi> theadmin, :/ oh.. well Boxes dosnt seem to like them
[11:57] <ham> mtrg, I'm vurrently running a simple python script that iterates huge number of iterations to print "hi" and temp is increasing
[11:57] <ham> mtrg, I stooped it after temp was 84 c
[11:58] <ham> mtrg, I use jupiter to detect temp
[11:59] <boredboy> can you boot ubuntu live cd straight into text mode so I can see what is causing it to fail?  having a spash screen that won't draw/update properly isn't helping
[12:00] <theadmin> boredboy: You can press Esc on the splash screen to "look under" it, that is, see the boot process
[12:00] <ham> mtrg, I don't have such issues on windows btw
[12:01] <Nicekiwi> I cant get Gnome-Boxes to boot form my windows install disc, help?
[12:03] <richardlxc> how to use ssh to connect from 192.168.2.*  to 192.168.1.*   ?
[12:04] <richardlxc> anyone can help me?
[12:05] <richardlxc> anyone can help me??
[12:05] <MonkeyDust> !patience| richardlxc
[12:06] <auronandace> !ssh | richardlxc
[12:06] <Nicekiwi> I cant get Gnome-Boxes to boot form my windows install disc, help?
[12:07] <theadmin> Nicekiwi: Just what is gnome-boxes?
[12:07] <MonkeyDust> Nicekiwi  gnome in windows install?
[12:07] <richardlxc> thank you ubottu
[12:07] <richardlxc> wowo,thank you auronandace
[12:07] <auronandace> richardlxc: no worries :)
[12:07] <richardlxc> en :)
[12:08] <Nicekiwi> theadmin, :/ https://live.gnome.org/Boxes
[12:08] <Nicekiwi> MonkeyDust, uhmm no
[12:08] <theadmin> Nicekiwi: Ooh looks cute, but I suggest you check Virtualbox out, it works with Windows guests just great
[12:09] <Nicekiwi> theadmin, i know. But i wanted to try Boxes
[12:09] <Nicekiwi> the less I have to use Oracle software the better.. :/
[12:09] <theadmin> Nicekiwi: Makes sense :) Well, sorry, I can't really help here
[12:10] <Seryth> I have an apt:// link in firefox, is there a way to use it in terminal rather than straight clicking the link?
[12:10] <Seryth> theadmin: ^
[12:11] <theadmin> Seryth: Isn't it opened with "apt-url" or somesuch?
[12:11] <mtrg> ham: i know. that's because the flash player for linux is differrent code-base than that of windows
[12:11] <mtrg> ham: you can try some of the other open source alternatives and give them a try
[12:11] <Seryth> theadmin: I clck it and nothing happens so I'm trying to find an alternative.
[12:12] <theadmin> Seryth: Just stare at the link, and type what comes after the "apt://" into an apt-get prompt, e.g. if the link is "apt://zsh" type "apt-get install zsh"
[12:12] <zykotick9> Nicekiwi: if you're looking for a alternative to VBox i'd suggest kvm (if your cpu support virtualization) [libvirt is a gui frontend of sorts]
[12:13] <Seryth> theadmin: I fiddled with Nightly's settings and set it to open with the correct program, it's working now, thanks
[12:16] <Nicekiwi> zykotick9, libvert?
[12:16] <zykotick9> !info virt-manager | Nicekiwi
[12:17] <MonkeyDust> not every hardware supports kvm
[12:18] <zykotick9> Nicekiwi: if you want 3d graphics in your VMs, forget about KVM
[12:18] <Nicekiwi> :/
[12:19] <ejo> Not to mention you gotta realize that particular kinds of 3D may be emulated in ways you didn't want, such as directX being emulated in OpenGL sometimes
[12:20] <Nicekiwi> grrr
[12:20] <ejo> thus dramatically lower frame rate in games etc.  thus games via Wine are a better idea, same with certain graphics apps
[12:20] <zykotick9> Nicekiwi: if you want 3d/acceleration in VMs, then VBox is probably your best bet.
[12:20] <ejo> I do have faith that the VMs of the future will solve that, but, future.
[12:21] <Nicekiwi> zykotick9, i just want Boxes to work :(
[12:21] <MonkeyDust> Nicekiwi  i guess you're pioneerring
[12:22] <Nicekiwi> :( why does opensource software have to be so shit..
[12:22] <ejo> ??
[12:22] <tomodo> lol
[12:22] <ejo> my goodness I can NOT parse that.  system error
[12:22] <MonkeyDust> Nicekiwi  why use it if you don't like it?
[12:22] <zykotick9> one more added to /ignore
[12:22] <Abhijit> Nicekiwi, freedome comes with price and responsibility.
[12:23] <alankila> Nicekiwi: two reasons. 1) software is hard; 2) open source is in general terms very developer starved. Not enough people working on it
[12:23] <feisar> I would also argue that it's not shit
[12:23] <MonkeyDust> Nicekiwi  cannot handle freedom?
[12:24] <ejo> alankila++
[12:24] <Seryth> Hey. Since I updated from Obuntu (openbox + ubuntu) 11.10 to 12.04 yesterday, I've not had a working flash player, which I need for work. I can't view any flash sites; youtube, for example. I know that YT have HTML5, but that doesn't help me. I've tried purging/re-installing flashplugin-installer, still nothing...I've tried downloading a tar.gz file and putting the files in the correct directories...still nothing...Weird
[12:24] <Seryth> thing is that the flash tests say it's installed and working correctly. I'm lost, dunno what to do. Any ideas?
[12:25] <Nicekiwi> alankila, :P
[12:26] <feisar> Seryth: as far as I'm aware Chrome has flash built in so you could install that, or do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted extras. Either of those should work
[12:26] <Seryth> feisar: Aha! Ubuntu-restricted extras! Thanks :D
[12:28] <feisar> Seryth: np : )
[12:29] <bairui> hi, (ubuntu 12.04, unity) when I use the Super key for navigating between desktops, the small mini-desktop overlay stays in the middle of the screen until I press Escape or Enter. Is there a way to have it disappear (as it does with the default ctrl-alt-[left/etc] maps)?
[12:29] <Nicekiwi> MonkeyDust, freedom is nice, when it works that is.
[12:30] <MonkeyDust> Nicekiwi  you're free to not use it
[12:30] <Abhijit> Nicekiwi, and free to make it work
[12:31] <damms005> Pls can anyone help me with my partitions? http://imagebin.org/215746
[12:32] <ngomes> hello , how can i consult a package version from repository ?
[12:32] <Seryth> feisar: awww dAMn. I thought installed that was gonna fix it..but apparently not.
[12:32] <Seryth> Perhaps I need to log out/in
[12:32] <MonkeyDust> damms005  reduce the number of partitions, for a start
[12:32] <auronandace> damms005: why so many?
[12:32] <feisar> damms005: what are you trying to do?
[12:32] <jrib> ngomes: define "consult"
[12:32] <damms005> MonkeyDust: feisar I was crazy.
[12:32] <feisar> Seryth: reboot to be sure
[12:32] <Seryth> feisar: AH, okay
[12:33] <auronandace> damms005: what is your end goal?
[12:33] <ngomes> jrib, i want to know what package version does the ubuntu reposity have
[12:33] <damms005> MonkeyDust: feisar I was toiling with sda while i meant to do sdb. that was for fdisk
[12:33] <jrib> ngomes: apt-cache policy PACKAGE
[12:33] <MonkeyDust> damms005  backup important data and start over, instead of repairing things
[12:34] <damms005> That mistake complicated and I couldn't control those unknown partiton. I fried them all. Pls guys
[12:34] <ngomes> jrib, thanks
[12:34] <Nicekiwi> MonkeyDust, i suppose it never actually garenteed it DID work :/
[12:35] <MonkeyDust> damms005  delete all the partitions and re-create the ones you need
[12:35] <damms005> MonkeyDust: I dont mind starting over. But how do i do that. I have a bad cdrom(that is why i am using wubi installed ubuntu)
[12:35] <auronandace> damms005: you can only have 4 primary partitions, if you have windows then you only need the one ntfs for windows, the rest could be logical partitions
[12:35] <MonkeyDust> aaah wubi :(
[12:35] <damms005> MonkeyDust:  what is it about wubi pls
[12:36] <MonkeyDust> the guy who invented wubi should be sent to guantànamo
[12:36] <auronandace> damms005: wubi is awful, it isn't meant to be used as a long term solution, it is more of a try before you dive in deal
[12:36] <damms005> MonkeyDust: wubi is not a nice one innit?
[12:36] <wylde_> MonkeyDust: +1
[12:36] <auronandace> damms005: even then a vm would be better than wubi
[12:37] <iceroot> what package is controling the suspend-feature when i close my screen on the laptop? (unity) i need to report a bug against that
[12:37] <damms005> wylde_: auronandace MonkeyDust : what of wubi migrate?
[12:37] <auronandace> damms005: better to start over fresh
[12:38] <damms005> auronandace: what of my installed apps? I have so much pimped my present ubuntu
[12:38] <auronandace> damms005: i can't help you migrate
[12:38] <sacarlson> damms005: what about boot a live usb?
[12:38] <damms005> can I copy my / folder to replace the newly installed linux from CD?
[12:39] <feisar> damms005: no don't do that
[12:39] <auronandace> damms005: that is highly inadvisable
[12:39] <mang0> feisar: Darn, still no fix
[12:40] <damms005> To you all: when I tried formatting those unknown partitions, there's error. Do you not think it will also happen if I delete all existing ones?
[12:40] <auronandace> damms005: what unknown partitions, they are all ntfs
[12:40] <feisar> damms005: backup your /home directory and your /etc directory (if you've changed anything in there), download a 12.04 iso and install from that - dual booting with Windows
[12:41] <wylde_> damms005: uhhhh  I hope you have your data backed up.
[12:41] <back_homu> anyone here for support
[12:42] <auronandace> back_homu: indeed
[12:42] <feisar> mang0: that's odd, flash should work, I'm guessing if you're using openbox that it's not exactly a default install
[12:42] <mang0> !ask | back_homu
[12:42] <back_homu> I want to move my Wubi installation to a dedicated partition
[12:42] <back_homu> I want to move my Wubi installation to a dedicated partition, how would I do it painlessly
[12:42] <damms005> how do i now start over?
[12:42] <mang0> feisar: Hm. It's always worked before :S
[12:42] <damms005> do i format my hardisk?
[12:43] <back_homu> is that sarcasm
[12:43] <back_homu> nice much
[12:43] <auronandace> damms005: you'd need to delete the partitions you don't need/want
[12:43] <back_homu> yeah reinstall might work, but why would I come here
[12:43] <auronandace> damms005: seriously, back up what you need first
[12:44] <back_homu> I want to move my Wubi installation to a dedicated partition, how would I do it painlessly...
[12:44] <damms005> auronandace: like deleting sda2 and sda4?
[12:44] <Ormie> When windows has many cons. Why people still stick with windows? Why not linux?
[12:44] <auronandace> back_homu: wubi and painlessly don't go hand in hand
[12:44] <Ormie> (Just don't mention mac)
[12:45] <back_homu> auronandace: i heard LVPM does this
[12:45] <back_homu> does it still work in 12.04?
[12:45] <back_homu> because the screenshots are 8.xx
[12:45] <auronandace> back_homu: never heard of it, what is lvpm?
[12:45] <back_homu> http://www.linuxhaxor.net/graduate-from-a-wubi-install-to-a-dedicated-partition/
[12:45] <back_homu> !wubi
[12:45] <back_homu> eh
[12:45] <back_homu> !lvpm
[12:46] <back_homu> aww
[12:46] <sacarlson> damms005: what is it you plan to run on the completed install of this disk/system?  are you going to have windows and ubuntu? or 3 different linux and 3 different windows versions?
[12:46] <auronandace> back_homu: i wouldn't bother, just start over with a fresh install
[12:46] <back_homu> darn, i don't have a USB around
[12:46] <sacarlson> damms005: or just ubuntu?
[12:46] <back_homu> and my laptop doesn't have a CD drive
[12:46] <back_homu> is it possible to use a external hard drive?
[12:47] <back_homu> you know how you can get live CD on a USB
[12:47] <back_homu> can i do that with only a hard drive
[12:47] <feisar> back_homu: I see no reason why not
[12:47] <back_homu> i do have a 1GB thumbdrive, and i am sure it's way less than what is needed
[12:47] <feisar> back_homu: try it and see
[12:47] <stabilo_> hi
[12:48] <MonkeyDust> Ormie  i'll try to answer in #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:48] <mino123> hello folsk .. I need help with grub... earlier I copied the ubuntu usb installation image into a 1gb partiton on the hdd
[12:48] <stabilo_> how can i get rid of the purple teint in the ubuntu terminal, when using transparcy?
[12:48] <auronandace> damms005: you need to figure out what partition has what on it and back up what you need
[12:48] <sacarlson> back_homu: 1gb is big enuf usb to install ubuntu with,  if you have a running windows system or linux you can install ubuntu with eather
[12:48] <mino123> since then grub got screwed and I cant seem to be able to restore it
[12:49] <back_homu> i am running windows; can i install linux on a dedicated partition, sacarlson?
[12:49] <chineseboy> ciao
[12:49] <chineseboy> !list
[12:49] <mino123> I spent hours but nothing .. I tried manually with grub-install but for some reason the ubuntu live cd mounts the ubuntu OS automaticallu in cdrom
[12:49] <MonkeyDust> !install| back_homu
[12:49] <back_homu> ;_;
[12:49] <mino123> I dont need help installing ubuntu
[12:49] <mino123> I need help re installing grub
[12:49] <back_homu> it's for me
[12:49] <mino123> oh ok
[12:50] <mino123> sorry
[12:50] <mino123> anyone can help me with grub?
[12:50] <Aptar2> I can't open a .rar file, any tips for a new guy?
[12:50] <auronandace> Aptar2: avoid .rar
[12:50] <auronandace> !rar | Aptar2
[12:50] <mino123> I have also tried installing boot-repair
[12:50] <ngomes> anyone using rtorrent with logging facilities ?
[12:50] <mino123> but it says Please install the [mbr] packages. Then try again.
[12:51] <mino123> what are those MBR packages ?
[12:51] <back_homu> i made my action plan
[12:51] <vooze> I have been playing around with fish, http://ridiculousfish.com/shell/ but when i now open terminal i get the following error: Fejl under kørsel af underprocessen "/usr/local/bin/fish" (Ingen sådan fil eller filkatalog) (sorry, its in danish) how do i get back to /bin/bash ? i have tryed chsh -s /bin/bash etc. with no luck
[12:51] <back_homu> gonna install from wubi
[12:51] <back_homu> thanks guys
[12:51] <sacarlson> mino123: one liner: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt; sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda # change sda1 and sda to your choice
[12:51] <Aptar2> auronandace, When I use sudo apt-get....I never know where the programs are going.
[12:51] <MonkeyDust> back_homu  don't!!
[12:51] <back_homu> no i mean
[12:51] <back_homu> i already have Wubi ubuntu
[12:51] <Aptar2> auronandace, , Most of them don't show up on the menu
[12:51] <mino123> sacarlson, I tried that
[12:51] <back_homu> i'm going to make a spare partition
[12:51] <back_homu> install in spare
[12:51] <back_homu> delete wubi
[12:52] <back_homu> format the drive than contained wubi
[12:52] <auronandace> Aptar2: commandline utilities wouldn't show up in the menu
[12:52] <mino123> but like I was trying to say it wont work since the live cd automatically mounts the /root partition in /cdrom
[12:52] <Aptar2> auronandace, , I see.
[12:52] <back_homu> increase spare partition size to everything
[12:52] <sacarlson> mino123: if that failed then the files in the /boot of the root of your linux install is corrupted
[12:52] <mino123> and when I unmount it wont work anyeays
[12:52] <Aptar2> auronandace, thanks
[12:52] <mino123> uhm
[12:52] <mino123> so what then ?
[12:52] <feisar> back_homu: just use the Ubuntu 12.04 iso and let the installer do all the work
[12:53] <back_homu> feisar: do you think a 1GB stick can hold the iso?
[12:53] <back_homu> i don't have an ODD
[12:53] <sacarlson> mino123: for one thing I don't know how you can install ubuntu in a 1gb partition you need about 5 - 6 gig
[12:53] <auronandace> back_homu: the iso is 700mb, so yes
[12:53] <back_homu> great
[12:53] <KuRA> hi, is there any gapless music player on ubuntu with good library management? I like using clementine but the gapless for MP3 seems a bit off
[12:54] <mino123> sacarlson, its a mess here.. anyways I have my ubuntu os partition which is 500gb
[12:54] <mino123> I just copied the usb live into an additional 1gb partition
[12:54] <mino123> to use it as recovery.. just in case
[12:54] <mino123> but since then grub got screwed
[12:55] <mino123> anyways whenever I try to mount the root partition I get mount: /dev/sda6 already mounted or /mnt busy
[12:55] <arfbtwn> KuRA, banshee should support gapless playback, I think as long as gstreamer supports it (i maybe wrong though...)
[12:55] <mino123> since it got automatically mounted from the live cd
[12:55] <mino123> even though I unmounted it
[12:55] <mino123> it still tells me that its busy
[12:55] <Aptar2> auronandace, Okay sudo apt-get unrar worked. Thanks.
[12:55] <sacarlson> mino123: how can it boot if grub is corupted?  what did you boot from?
[12:56] <mino123> I am from the live cd
[12:56] <auronandace> !yay | Aptar2
[12:56] <Aptar2> heh :)
[12:56] <Aptar2> It may take some time, but I will get the hang of this!
[12:56] <mino123> wish I had another linux distro or either another empity cd where to burn it
[12:56] <sacarlson> mino123: so what partition is your 500gb ubuntu on as root
[12:57] <mino123> this ubuntu live cd is making the mess now .. by automatically mounting the root partition
[12:57] <mino123> sacarlson, can I query u ?
[12:57] <sacarlson> mino123: if it automounts the umount /mnt or whatever it mounts to
[12:58] <mino123> I did unmount it
[12:58] <mino123> but when I try to mount it in order for grub to accedd the /boot partition
[12:58] <mino123> it says the device is busy
[12:58] <sacarlson> mino123:  and again what partition is the root of your ubuntu 500gb at?  /dev/sdXX ??
[12:58] <mino123> /dev/sda6       191725568   976771071   392522752   83  Linux
[12:59] <mino123> its actually 393gb
[12:59] <mino123> 500gb is the whole hdd ..
[12:59] <mino123> but thats the root yea
[12:59] <mino123> and is where grub should be reinstalled
[12:59] <mino123> and where it used to be
[12:59] <sacarlson> mino123: ok so how would you run my one liner then?
[12:59] <arvind> hello
[13:00] <mino123>  sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt
[13:00] <sacarlson> nope
[13:00] <sacarlson> sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt
[13:01] <sacarlson> see my one liner above?
[13:01] <mino123> yea
[13:01] <mino123> 6
[13:01] <mino123> sorry
[13:01] <mino123> my bad
[13:01] <mino123> thats the output though
[13:01] <mino123> mount: /dev/sda6 already mounted or /mnt busy
[13:01] <mino123> even though I have already unmounted it
[13:01] <mino123> it was originally mounted on /cdrom
[13:02] <mino123> I have unmounted it with umount -l /cdrom
[13:02] <sacarlson> mino123: how can you umount cdrom your booted from there
[13:02] <mino123> nope
[13:02] <mino123> I am from live usb
[13:02] <sacarlson> mino123: show me mount then
[13:03] <mino123> alright
[13:03] <eduard> hello
[13:03] <sacarlson> see what's mounted as root
[13:03] <battery-problem> i have ubuntu. i restarted it. nbow, when eve3r i try to go back, i always get checking battery... [ok] and it will not start. how do i get it to start?
[13:03] <auronandace> mino123: it isn't a good idea to copy a livecd to a partition and run it from there
[13:03] <mino123> why ?
[13:04] <auronandace> mino123: its not designed to be run as a frugal install
[13:04] <sacarlson> mino123: I boot live cd from iso files from hard disk they boot faster
[13:04] <mino123> http://pastebin.com/WUGJeB0D
[13:04] <mino123> auronandace, oh ok
[13:04] <mino123> I didnt know ..
[13:04] <mino123> :(
[13:04] <battery-problem> i have ubuntu. i restarted it. now, when ever i try to go back, i always get checking battery... [ok] and it will not start. how do i get it to start? and not check battery?
[13:04] <sacarlson> mino123: crap I can't view pastebin.com my ISP has it filtered
[13:04] <mino123> uhm
[13:04] <mino123> do u wanna me to past anywhere else?
[13:05] <mino123> or just here ?
[13:05] <MonkeyDust> with unetbootin, you can add the live iso to the normal grub menu -- easily delete it with unetbootin again
[13:05] <mino123> its gonna be some 12 or more lines though
[13:05] <ubuntunobody> hi, shutting down ubuntu shows errors in console before splash kicks in. how do i ignore errors on shutdown and get a nicer looking shutdown?
[13:05] <sacarlson> mino123:  ya anyplace but pastebin.com,
[13:05] <mino123> brb
[13:06] <sacarlson> so if mino123 installed his live cd boot image to the harddisk then he has no partitions I guess?
[13:07] <battery-problem> i have ubuntu. i restarted it. nbow, when eve3r i try to go back, i always get checking battery... [ok] and it will not start. how do i get it to start?
[13:07] <mino123> sacarlson, http://nopaste.info/6de777b9b8.html
[13:07] <mino123> sacarlson, I still have every partitions left
[13:07] <mino123> I had an extra 1gb partition
[13:08] <sacarlson> mino123: ok /mnt is used already so lets just change our mount point name to /mnt2  so create it  sudo mkdir /mnt2
[13:08] <Absolute0> For some reason I lose sound when I mess around with alsamixer. I unmuted everything and still no sound. I get the same issue on my work computer. How can I fix this?
[13:09] <sacarlson> then sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt2
[13:09] <mino123> ok
[13:09] <battery-problem> i have ubuntu. i restarted it. nbow, when eve3r i try to go back, i always get checking battery... [ok] and it will not start. how do i get it to start?
[13:10] <sacarlson> mino123: sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt2 /dev/sda
[13:10] <mikkelb> Anybody familiar with wget reject lists? The manual says "Specify comma-separated lists of file name suffixes or patterns to accept or reject" -- so is it file1,file2,file3 or "file1","file2","file3"?
[13:10] <mino123> grr
[13:10] <mino123> same thing
[13:10] <mino123> mount: /dev/sda6 already mounted or /mnt2 busy

[13:19] <sacarlson> mino123:  how about sudo chkdsk /dev/sda6 ;
[13:19] <mino123> no I mean I am not logged as root
[13:19] <mino123> I am root in shell
[13:19] <auronandace> sacarlson: sda6 is a linux partitition
[13:19] <mino123> on this shell

[13:20] <mino123> it says unknown command
[13:20] <FOX_> ping
[13:20] <auronandace> sacarlson: so you meant fsxk not chkdsk?
[13:20] <auronandace> fsck
[13:20] <mino123> oh make sense

[13:22] <auronandace> mino123: are you starting to see why frugal installs are not supported?
[13:22] <sacarlson> mino123: oh seems your live cd image is now on the /dev/sda6 partition
[13:22] <Chuck_Norris> aloha all :D
[13:22] <mino123> auronandace, I guess ..

[13:24] <bahr> Hi, I want to install 12.04 on a Sony Vaio CW2 laptop and I know that previously there has been some issues with the fan control, where the fan runs all the time and the laptop gets very hot. Is anyone running Ubuntu on a CW2 sucessfully where this issue is resolved? I would really like to use ubuntu as my main os :/
[13:24] <sacarlson> mino123: that makes sence as that would be why you can't sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt2
[13:24] <FOX_> can ne1 help me to solve Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "murrine" error
[13:25] <mino123> I am going to restart
[13:25] <mino123> brb
[13:25] <sacarlson> ok
[13:27] <MrNaz`> i have a fresh install of ubuntu 12.04 however when i plug my camcorder in via firewire dvgrab no longer detects it... i know this hardware all works on 10.04 but i just can't get it working with this version of ubuntu... can anyone help me trouble shoot ?
[13:28] <MonkeyDust> MrNaz`  firewire.... mac?
[13:29] <MrNaz`> no... dell laptop
[13:29] <sacarlson> MrNaz`: I wonder if you can run the old 10.04 kernel on 12.04?
[13:29] <MrNaz`> sacarlson i would rather just use 10.04 than mess around with different kernels... 10.04 is a lts and supported until next year
[13:29] <MrNaz`> which would give me another year of "can deal with it later" attitude
[13:29] <MonkeyDust> MrNaz`  12.04 is lts too
[13:30] <MrNaz`> MonkeyDust yea i know that
[13:30] <LjL> using the wrong kernel for your release is usually not a very good idea
[13:30] <MrNaz`> i'd prefer to get this firewire device working with 12.04
[13:30] <MrNaz`> LjL hence my preference to just use that release
[13:30] <sacarlson> MrNaz`: ya I'm sticking with 10.04 until they have some things in 12.04 fixed up
[13:30] <MonkeyDust> MrNaz`  mixing versions != good idea
[13:30] <MrNaz`> yes yes i have no intention to mix releases
[13:31] <mino123> okk
[13:31] <sacarlson> ?
[13:31] <mino123> u guys where so right
[13:31] <mino123> I lost everything
[13:31] <sacarlson> mino123: bummer
[13:31] <mino123> the frugal image took the /dev/sd5 partition
[13:31] <MrNaz`> where's the best place to ask for adivce on this matter? is it worth trying Ubuntu Studio?
[13:31] <sacarlson> mino123: what's on /dev/sda2 and sda3 then?
[13:31] <mino123> and screwed everything
[13:31] <mino123> windows
[13:32] <mino123> and swap
[13:32] <LjL> MrNaz`: doubt it, the underlying drivers are the same
[13:32] <mino123> I am reinstalling everything from the beginning
[13:32] <mino123> and I didnt have a backup
[13:32] <sacarlson> mino123: ok at least now you know were you headed
[13:32] <MrNaz`> how would i go about determining if the firewire card here is supported by the new firewire stack ?
[13:33] <sacarlson> mino123: that's why I keep all my stuf at github.com
[13:33] <mino123> yes.. lesson learnt this time
[13:33] <mino123> well actually
[13:33] <mino123> not everything got lost
[13:33] <mino123> at least the things in documents were automatically saved on ubuntu one
[13:33] <mino123> so..
[13:33] <mino123> basically I lost the kernel config
[13:34] <mino123> and laptop optimization configs
[13:34] <Chuck_Norris> MrNaz`: try: sudo modprobe raw1394 ieee1394 video1394 ohci1394   then plug it
[13:34] <mino123> and email server config
[13:34] <mino123> its gonna be a 4 hours or fun
[13:34] <MrNaz`> Chuck_Norris that only works with the old firewire stack
[13:34] <mino123> to put everythign bac
[13:34] <mino123> FMK
[13:34] <mino123> FML
[13:34] <MrNaz`> those modules are not found with the new firewire stack
[13:34] <Chuck_Norris> ok -.-
[13:36] <mino123> sacarlson, should I keep /boot into a different partition ?
[13:36] <mino123> since I am reinstalling everything
[13:36] <sacarlson> mino123: I don't bother
[13:36] <mino123> alright

[13:42] <mario_> hi
[13:42] <Ormie> asdfasdf_, install ubuntu again, and restore from backup. and learn the lesson.

[13:43] <asdfasdf_> i wasn't paying attention and it's overwritten by farkin' ubuntu os
[13:43] <Chuck_Norris> asdfasdf_: open a terminal and do: sudo os-prober
[13:43] <asdfasdf_> ok...
[13:44] <asdfasdf_> how do i get to terminal from bootup?
[13:44] <mario_> it always gives mount: special device /dev/cdrom does not exist
[13:44] <mario_> added cdrom manually to fstab
[13:44] <Chuck_Norris> asdfasdf_: press "ctrl + Alt + T"
[13:44] <mario_> but still
[13:44] <mario_> not attatched
[13:45] <mario_> its, ubuntu VM
[13:45] <mario_> running under Oracle Virtualbox
[13:45] <mario_> the CD_ROM device controller is added ;)
[13:45] <asdfasdf_> i can't get it to work, it just goes straight into the backtrack loading screen...
[13:46] <Chuck_Norris> ye... we will doit on BT
[13:46] <Chuck_Norris> do it*
[13:46] <asdfasdf_> ok after logging into backtrack "sudo os-prober" returns nothing

[14:22] <LjL> BlueChaos: it appears you don't get Ubottu's message, so i'll reiterate: you're supposed to use a pastebin for pasting stuff like that, not throw it into the channel. the pastebin we use is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/

[14:24] <wylde_> BlueChaos:  spacebar ...

[14:24] <BlueChaos> ok thx
[14:24] <dr__willis> Tab and enter keys

[14:25] <BlueChaos> done.
[14:25] <BlueChaos> thx for help

[14:30] <SadlyMistaken> Hello everybody, I use 12.04, how can i got 2 more "areas of work"??
[14:31] <dr__willis> The myunity tool can set more workspaces. I recall
[14:32] <SadlyMistaken> myunity tool?
[14:32] <SadlyMistaken> ok, but can i changed without this tool?
[14:32] <dr__willis> Easiest to use. Myunity
[14:32] <dr__willis> !info myunity
[14:34] <walrus2012> a
[14:35] <SadlyMistaken> dr__willis: ¿in which tab? ¿Dash Tab???
[14:35] <SadlyMistaken> I can't see the function..
[14:35] <dr__willis> I'm not on ubuntu. So cant look
[14:35] <SadlyMistaken> then are you sure with myunity i can change this?
[14:36] <dr__willis> I either used myunity or ubuntutweak
[14:36] <thiebaude> http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/myunity-comprehensive-unity-tweak-for-ubuntu-11-04-and-11-10/
[14:36] <thiebaude> SadlyMistaken, check that out
[14:36] <zoe> hello, my SD card reader isn't working on ubuntu; (i'm on ubuntu 12.04); my computer is a toshiba p200-13f; how can i make it work?
[14:36] <thiebaude> :)
[14:36] <njalk> anyone know how to get color on ircII in putty?
[14:36] <Xirrin> I installed 12.04 x64 with the alternate CD and used the "LVM with Encryption" option when I installed it. Is there a way to reverse the encryption to just make it a normal unencrypted drive?
[14:39] <SadlyMistaken> thiebaude: what exactly do you want me to check out? I have installed, but i can't see the function i am looking for.
[14:40] <thiebaude> SadlyMistaken, anything on that page that might solve your problem
[14:40] <thiebaude> i dont use myunity myself, i use gnome classic with docky and a mac theme :)
[14:41] <thiebaude> SadlyMistaken,
[14:41] <SadlyMistaken> ok
[14:41] <SadlyMistaken> thanks anyway..
[14:41] <thiebaude> your welcomed
[14:41] <dr__willis> Askubuntu.com should have an answer also
[14:42] <zoe> how can i know the name of my sd card driver? lspci output is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032154/
[14:42] <dr__willis> I'm not on a Pc. So cant look
[14:42] <alankila> zoe: look up /sys/block/<devicenode> ... iirc there's a driver or module symlink somewhere around there
[14:42] <dr__willis> Zoe.  Sudo blkud
[14:42] <dr__willis> !BLKID
[14:43] <zoe>  /dev/sda1: UUID="e80ffa01-5c54-43b8-ac37-33f78dfc3f28" TYPE="ext4"  /dev/sda5: UUID="5ac278a9-cc97-4039-a9cc-b1077fb0e1f0" TYPE="swap"  for sudo blkid
[14:43] <dr__willis>    /dev/mcc##### most likely
[14:43] <alankila> I think it's /sys/block/<node>/device/driver
[14:43] <zoe> alankila: what's the node?
[14:44] <mauron> l
[14:44] <zoe> alankila: the problem is that the card reader probably isn't installed correctly, so i need to look upthe name to install the drivers
[14:44] <dr__willis> Slot and card may not be seen at al
[14:44] <alankila> the name linux picked for that particular thing. There are other ways to access it, maybe, like via the pci bus if you don't know that... /sys/bus/pci/<the pci address>
[14:44] <zoe> in /sys/bus/pci there are the files/folders: devices  drivers  drivers_autoprobe  drivers_probe  rescan  resource_alignment  slots  uevent
[14:44] <dr__willis> Some laptop built in sdcard readers can be... quirky
[14:44] <server_> I understand this isn't the #samba, however the answer I'm looking for is just a recommendation on where to look and what type of share server I need to use. Can someone please point me to documentation regarding this: I'd like to have a samba server, and the server box will also be a client. Shares also need to go to other clients on the network. I've gotten this to work fine using user security, however, I'd like to have different permiss
[14:44] <server_> ions for specific people on the network.
[14:45] <alankila> yesh it's under devices again
[14:45] <zoe> alankila: and then a lot of different numbers in devices/
[14:45] <dr__willis> !info samba-doc
[14:45] <alankila> zoe: also lshw exists...
[14:45] <alankila> zoe: yes, need to match the pci bus address with the output of lspci, I guess
[14:46] <gadago> server_: try looking at samba 4, it attempts to be an open-source alternative to active directory
[14:46] <zoe> alankila: output of lspci is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032154/ and output of lshw is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032157/
[14:46] <server_> gadago: so active directory is what I'm looking for?
[14:47] <gadago> server_: active directory is Microsoft
[14:47] <gadago> you want what active directory does, but on Linux
[14:47] <server_> so I need to read documentation on "active directory for linux" ?
[14:48] <curiousx> zoe: what is your issue?
[14:48] <alankila> zoe: maybe your cardbus reader is usb-based
[14:48] <gadago> server_: no, you need to look at samba version 4
[14:48] <zoe> curiousx: my sd card reader doesn't work
[14:48] <alankila> I can't see anything that qualifies over the pci bus imho
[14:48] <oriol> hi
[14:48] <zoe> alankila: it's integrated, and it worked under windows
[14:49] <zoe> Chuck_Norris: my sd card reader worked under windows, but now that i've installed linux, it doesn't anymore
[14:49] <thiebaude> server_ http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-active-directory-server.html
[14:49] <server_> gadago: okay, thank you.
[14:49] <dr__willis> Some laptop sd card readers can be flakey. Or unsupportrd
[14:49] <server_> thanks
[14:49] <thiebaude> yw
[14:49] <zoe> dr__willis: so no solution?
[14:50] <gadago> server_: try here http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/HOWTO
[14:50]  * thiebaude coffee break
[14:50] <dr__willis> Not without looking for info on the exact model lapto
[14:50] <alankila> zoe: jsut the same, try lsusb if there's something that looks like memory card reader
[14:50] <dr__willis> My netbook need a kernel option
[14:50] <server_> funny I get the most help here than I ever have anywhere else and it's off topic, thanks again guys
[14:50] <zoe> alankila: doesn't look like :( http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032163/
[14:50] <alankila> zoe: despite being "integrated" these things are often internally wired over usb
[14:50] <dr__willis> Fro sd to work
[14:51] <zoe> alankila: oh ok
[14:51] <thiebaude> no problem server, even tho i dont know much about them
[14:51] <alankila> zoe: agreed... hmmm, there's still that cardbus thing left, I wonder if the device could be found under that
[14:51] <zoe> alankila: what do you mean?
[14:51] <alankila> maybe boot windows and try to figure out how it's connected hardware-wise.
[14:51] <alankila> zoe: cardbus is some expansion bus iirc
[14:51] <zoe> i don't have windows anymore :(
[14:52] <alankila> cardbus is getting pretty rare though... I haven't seen one of these in laptops for years and years
[14:52] <dr__willis> Check the forums for your exact model laptop
[14:52] <zoe> i did but found nothing special: toshiba satellite p200-13F
[14:52] <dr__willis> May be a simple fix. Or option needed
[14:53] <dr__willis> Askubuntu.com is good also
[14:53] <dr__willis> This a very new laptop?
[14:53] <alankila> yeah I'm running out of buses to check if lshw doesn't seem to show it, and neither does lspci or lsusb, and I don't in reality believe that the reader is integrated by cardbus
[14:54] <zoe> alankila: this laptop is a few years old
[14:54] <alankila> would have bet on usb because that's the way I've always seen it integrated myself -- in fact on this laptop also -- but this time nope
[14:54] <zoe> dr__willis: no pretty old
[14:54] <zoe> maybe 5ys i don't know
[14:54] <dr__willis> ive never had a laptop with the sdcard on usb. ;)
[14:55] <alankila> dr__willis: really? Hmm. I guess it varies, then.
[14:55] <spidernet> ciao
[14:55] <spidernet> !list
[14:55] <dr__willis> You can get usb readers for sd. For like 5$
[14:57] <alankila> in my case it's just some device called "Importek"
[14:58] <zoe> alankila: dr__willis: can it be the last line of lspci? aste.ubuntu.com/1032154/
[14:58] <zoe> p missing
[14:59] <alankila> well, cardbus is, as I mentioned, an expansion bus
[14:59] <alankila> usually a kind of wide slot at the side of the laptop where you can plug pc cards in
[14:59] <dr__willis> Pcmcia ;)
[14:59] <alankila> like I said, they've vanished from laptops in the past years.
[14:59] <zoe> on this page http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/lecteur_carte_memoire they explain how to install Texas Instruments PCIxx12 so i'll try that
[15:00] <nannes> heeeeeeeeeelp. I'm installing a Canon All-in-One, the Guide says to "install libtiff3" ----- But in Lucid that pakage doesn't exist!!!
[15:00] <alankila> in any case if you have hardware under cardbus it should have appeared in lshw
[15:00] <nannes> what's its new name?
[15:00] <esing> hey
[15:00] <alankila> or I think so at the very least
[15:00] <alankila> or was it that cardbus actually looks just like PCI. I forget. That tech is dead.
[15:01] <esing> can I join with an ubuntu PC using Samba a windows 7 home network?
[15:01] <fr-z> Hi all. Does anyone know how to solve the problem with the .private folder? i have a 100 gb disk and that folder consumed already 70 gb
[15:01] <zoe> alankila: what does Texas Instruments PCIxx12 mean?
[15:01] <dr__willis> Easing they can srare shad yes
[15:01] <dr__willis> Share shares..
[15:02] <esing> good to know, so I already configured 3 computers to a windows home network now I only need to install samba and thats it ?
[15:02] <alankila> sounds like name for some chipset over PCI, xx12 means that the driver supports any variant of the 4-digit codes that terminate in 12 allegedly
[15:02] <dr__willis> !samba
[15:03] <esing> thanks
[15:03] <novato_br> how could I see shared folder from windows 7 on ubuntu 11.04?
[15:04] <dr__willis> File manager has the feature novato_br
[15:04] <novato_br> samba is installed, i can see any other computers on network less windows 7 computer
[15:04] <mlpokn> fixed my vpn, yay :)
[15:05] <novato_br> my filemanager is Nautilus 2.32.2.1
[15:05] <muh2000> sacarlson: i think i got it :)
[15:05] <dr__willis> Menus. Connect to server..
[15:05] <novato_br> what do I need for?

[15:34] <sharkmap> Hi all, just upgraded my PC with new cpu/mb/memory and ubuntu 12.04 64bit is running like a champ. I checked with google, and it said everything should be good to go with no reinstall. Can someone verify that or tell me it there's anything I still need to do please? Thanks.
[15:35] <Seveas> sharkmap, if nothing is broken, no need to fix anything :-)
[15:35] <xubuntu5> but you may want to tinker :)
[15:35] <anonymous_> Good
[15:35] <Seveas> xubuntu5, s/may/will probably/ :)
[15:35] <sharkmap> Seveas: thanks! I am just overthinking I guess.

[15:38]  * esing123 re
[15:38] <deitarion> I got apt wedged where trying to do anything results in a request for `apt-get -f install` but that fails because I need to remove a package to avoid an installed file conflict (which it refuses to do because I need to `apt-get -f install`).
[15:38]  * clixsense join http://www.clixsense.com/?4005905 and click and task and win very much
[15:38] <esing123> can i skip setting security = user if I dont want to enter a password/username when entering my samba shared folder through the network ?
[15:39] <ForgeAus> thats interesting what happened to ibcs? is it still around?
[15:39] <bairui> hi, (ubuntu 12.04, unity) when I use the Super key for navigating between desktops, the small mini-desktop overlay stays in the middle of the screen until I press Escape or Enter. Is there a way to have it disappear (as it does with the default ctrl-alt-[left/etc] maps)?
[15:39] <deitarion> I'm used to Gentoo and Portage. How do I either tell dpkg to just *#$@ing overwrite the file from the package or tell apt-get that I know what I'm doing and it should mind its own business and remove the one package before I `apt-get -f install`?
[15:40] <ForgeAus> deitarion uh normally packages come as an "atomic" unit, apt-get install "package" usually replaces whatever was there with the package version
[15:40] <ForgeAus> I think
[15:40] <Seveas> deitarion, can you do apt-get -f install and pastebin the output?
[15:40] <hangdeadman> On my laptop in ubuntu 12.04 I can click the bottom right side of my mouse pad to open a menu. is there a way to configure the botom middle to middle- click?
[15:40] <KRomo> i just ealized my processor is almost 5 years old lol and ubuntu runs great...windows did too but ubuntu makes it feel new
[15:40] <Seveas> (yes, it'll fail, I want to see the exact failure)
[15:41] <deitarion> Seveas: Tricky. The machine with the problem has no IRC client.
[15:41] <ForgeAus> KRomo yeah linux has a way of doing that occasionally :)
[15:42] <deitarion> ForgeAus: A word of advice. Don't try installing GIMP 2.8 from the PPA using "upgrade" rather than "remove ... && install ...". It'll get wedged refusing to upgrade gimp because there's a version conflict with the old gimp-plugin-repository and refusing to remove gimp-plugin-repository until you fix the dependencies of the other gimp plugins.
[15:42] <KRomo> i used to upgrade every 2-3 years but this cpu is 5 years old and i have no plans for an upgrade
[15:42] <KRomo> bravo ubuntu :)
[15:42] <Seveas> deitarion, pastebin urls are easy to copy manually :)
[15:42] <ForgeAus> deitarion fair enough I'm not much of a Gimp fan anyway... but I do wish you good luck
[15:42] <deitarion> Seveas: Copy manually how?
[15:42] <xubuntu5> what's better than gimp?
[15:43] <deitarion> Seveas: ...oh, wait. You mean manually write it down and key it in on this machine?
[15:43] <Seveas> deitarion, you type it in...
[15:43] <ForgeAus> deitarion if you really want to remove a package properly apt-get has a purge keyword to instead of remove
[15:43] <Seveas> deitarion, yeah, paste the error on pastebin.com, and give us the resulting url
[15:43] <deitarion> ForgeAus: No different. I tried "remove", "purge", and "autoremove". All refuse to do anything until "apt-get -f install" completes successfully.
[15:43] <Seveas> ForgeAus, well, that won't work as long as apt is wedged
[15:43] <deitarion> Seveas: One sec.
[15:44] <hangdeadman> On my laptop in ubuntu 12.04 I can click the bottom right side of my mouse pad to open a menu. is there a way to configure the botom middle to middle- click?
[15:44] <xubuntu5> is it possible to install apt-get on a different distro and load the ubuntu repos?
[15:44] <ForgeAus> Seveas wedged?
[15:44] <ForgeAus> yes xubuntu
[15:44] <ForgeAus> but its not necessarily a good idea
[15:44] <xubuntu5> ahh true
[15:44] <Seveas> ForgeAus, scroll up and read deitarion's problem :)
[15:44] <ForgeAus> you can do that with a chroot environment for example
[15:44] <Seveas> I call that wedged
[15:45] <esing123> can i skip setting security = user if I dont want to enter a password/username when entering my samba shared folder through the network ?
[15:45] <ForgeAus> Seveas does he have broken packages?
[15:45] <esing123> i do not see my samba shared directoy from my windows PC in network section, why that ?
[15:46] <vuongdothanhhuy> check the permission?
[15:46] <Seveas> ForgeAus, dunno, that's why I asked him to pastebin
[15:46] <Seveas> Troubleshooting 101: the more info, the better. Don't guess
[15:46] <esing123> vuongdothanhhuy i set the permission with chown
[15:47] <ForgeAus> shouldn't he do a sudo dpkg --configure -a  (I think thats the line something like that ... )
[15:47] <Seveas> ForgeAus, it all depends on what state apt is in.
[15:47] <Seveas> (not a bad suggestion though)
[15:47] <ForgeAus> ok you seem to have it in hand :)
[15:48] <ForgeAus> I can see how its kinda frustrating coming from Gentoo though
[15:48] <esing123> I set the permission with sudo chown nobody.nogroup /home/*****
[15:48] <ForgeAus> not that I have much experience with gentoo beyond a prefix here or there
[15:48] <ForgeAus> but I did get a taste of portage that way  :) ...
[15:49] <Seveas> I have enough experience with gentoo to say "never again" :)
[15:49] <ForgeAus> Seveas my current kubuntu has a prefix :) so I can't go there with you I'm afraid :)
[15:50] <esing123> maybe I installed wrong samba ?
[15:50] <esing123> I installed sudo apt-get install samba
[15:50] <esing123> but I also read about sudo apt-get install samba4
[15:50] <deitarion> Seveas: http://pastebin.com/mYrYS55T
[15:50] <esing123> is that the reason?
[15:50] <ForgeAus> esing123 probably not, what are you trying to do? maybe you didn't configure the .conf file or have software to set up stuff like your workgroup instead?
[15:50] <vuongdothanhhuy> anyone help esing123? I have no experience on that topic. I use SFTP :D
[15:50] <ikt> esing123, no, samba is a pain in general
[15:51] <ikt> can you access your shared files from windows by typing in the ip address?
[15:52] <Seveas> deitarion, oh, it's not too bad. Let's remove gimp entirely: sudo dpkg -P gimp gimp-data gimp-plugin-registry
[15:52] <esing123> forge i put workgroup = WORKGROUP and I also entered the share dir into the conf. file
[15:52] <vuongdothanhhuy> if you use linux, why dont forget anything related to Linux. We can use SSH instead. Or even SFTP/FTP, then you can mount the FTP to Windows Explorer.
[15:52] <deitarion> Seveas: Thanks. "dpkg -P" is what I was looking for.
[15:52] <Seveas> deitarion, add libgimp2.0 to that list (you want them all in one command)
[15:53] <esing123> ikl i try that sec
[15:54] <Seveas> vuongdothanhhuy, likewise. It's been a few years since I had to do samba.
[15:54] <vinu> Hi, i accidently deleted partions of some drives, but it contain some important datas, can any1 please help in recovering that.
[15:54] <deitarion> Never mind. "dpkg -P" is refusing to remove those unless I manually copy-paste a list of packages that depend on them. How do I go one level lower and rip out the packages without even examining dependencies so I can then `dpkg -i` the new .debs without dpkg complaining about file conflicts?
[15:55] <sate> Does someone know the error: "Inconsistency detected by ld.so: ../sysdeps/x86_64/dl-machine.h: 460: elf_machine_rela_relative: Assertion `((reloc->r_info) & 0xffffffff) == 8' failed!"? I got this by trying to open rhythmbox, the softwarecenter, the system configurations I guess, too, because nothing of all this works
[15:55] <dsnyders> vinu, you can try a program called testdisk
[15:55] <Seveas> deitarion, hmm, there shouldn't be that many dependencies. Can you pastebin the output?
[15:56] <Seveas> deitarion, one thing you can do is find the .deb files for the older version on archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gimp/ and dpkg -i those
[15:56] <vinu> k im trying, bt im not able to access the drives, still can i get the data's back?
[15:56] <deitarion> Seveas: It's my mother's laptop. She has a lot of GIMP plugins... and, to be honest, I'd find it less grating to reinstall the system from my Lubuntu Precise disk (12.04) than to run back and forth manually copying pastebin URLs.
[15:57] <Seveas> deitarion, fair enough. Try the trick with the older .deb files though
[15:57] <user101> i have a vmware image of ubuntu 11.10 server, i'm unable to ssh, it cuold be iptables?
[15:57] <Seveas> user101, did you install openssh-server on it?
[15:57] <deitarion> Also, this is starting to feel like those "Ask the administrator." "But I am the administrator!" exchanges I remember from my Windows years. As a matter of principle, I insist on finding a (or writing my own) command to rip out packages without regard for dependency relations.
[15:58] <deitarion> I don't feel like being dependent on old packages still existing somewhere.
[15:58] <Seveas> deitarion, yeah, dpkg can do that with --force-depends, but more problems lie that route
[15:58] <user101> Seveas, yes, at one point worked, then i think i update the system and don't work anymore, if i ping 192.168.1.2 give to me that respond 192.168.1.57
[15:59] <user101> if i ssh .57 don't work
[15:59] <user101> .2 neither
[15:59] <deitarion> Seveas: I've got all the new depends in /var/cache. The only problem is that the old version of one package has a file in common with the new version of a different one.
[15:59] <Seveas> deitarion, well, --force-depends may just help you there
[16:00] <deitarion> I'll give it a try. I'd rather risk it and learn from it and maybe have to spend 25 minutes waiting on a Lubuntu Precise install disk to do its job than dance to the broken instructions of a program dumber than I am.
[16:00]  * esing re
[16:01] <esing> ikl i tried to enter the linux samba through its ip , but it doesnt work either
[16:01] <vinu> How to use testdisk?
[16:02] <esing> vuongdothanhhuy will it also be able to have a symbol link on desktop or a bound network drive for the SSH/FTP solution?
[16:03] <Seveas> vinu, man testdisk
[16:03] <Seveas> that'll help you find out
[16:04] <vinu> how to work on that? I dnt know how to use it.
[16:04] <esing> vuongdothanhhuy so i prolly try SFTP or SSH out if it's doing the job either :-)
[16:06] <deitarion> Seveas: There. That fixed it. Say what you will about Gentoo's Portage (Dependency calculation is slow, no binary packages), but it's miles ahead of apt in a lot of ways (package DB doesn't hold an exclusive lock for the entire course of an install, clear "big red warning" mechanism for ripping out packages if you really know what you're doing, greatly superior 3rd-party alternative to apt-cache search, etc.).
[16:07] <kate_r> hi
[16:07] <kate_r> what default fonts are you guys using? i don't quite like the default Ubuntu font.
[16:07] <deitarion> kate_r: What about it don't you like? (I use it, but I might be able to suggest something closer to your specs)
[16:07] <dsnyders> Dr_Willis, http://www.acurite.com/acu-link-internet-bridge-for-acurite-weather-sensors-ethernet-09150trx.html looks interesting.
[16:08] <kate_r> dsnyders, hmm i think i find it too thin
[16:08] <ForgeAus> deitarion yes well portage is more flexible than apt-get ... I'll give you that, but I don't find I need that much in most cases...
[16:08] <ForgeAus> deitarion I'm not saying either is better or worse ...
[16:08] <vinu> Hello can anyone help!
[16:09] <deitarion> ForgeAus: apt is undeniably worse if it took this long just for Synaptic to be able to let you browse your packages while apt-get is performing an install in a terminal window.
[16:09] <mirak> hi
[16:09] <ForgeAus> uh while apt-get is functioning/installing you shouldn't be using anything to browse packages
[16:10] <MonkeyDust> vinu  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=387922
[16:10] <mirak> is there a way to backup / partition before an upgrade, but without needing to boot into a live cd
[16:10] <mirak> ?
[16:10] <deitarion> ForgeAus: I rest my case. Not only can you browse packages while installing/removing with emerge, you can run multiple install/remove processes in parallel and, 99% of the time, the only problem you'll cause is sub-optimal use of resources during the compilation process.
[16:10] <kate_r> oh well hopefully i'll get used to it
[16:11] <MonkeyDust> mirak  i use rsync to create a copy
[16:11] <ForgeAus> wow portage can install in parallel I didn't know that...
[16:11] <mirak> MonkeyDust: with options like to not follow mounts ? like in cp maybe
[16:11] <mirak> by the way anyone is running btrfs ?
[16:11] <ForgeAus> apt-get likes things being manageable, it tries to make sure nothing goes wrong ...  so it takes one thing at time
[16:12] <Seveas> mirak, no, I *like* my data :)
[16:12] <deitarion> ForgeAus: When I was using emerge, it didn't even have a problem with two independent installs which installed the same packages. You just ended up reinstalling the packages in common.
[16:12] <mirak> Seveas: there might someone crazier around :)
[16:12] <mirak> might be
[16:12] <MonkeyDust> mirak  yeah, it has several options, i guess more than cp
[16:13] <mirak> MonkeyDust: I defeintely don't upgrade ubuntu without a copy a or dual partition, that's suicide otherwise
[16:13] <deitarion> dsnyders: If you want a network/web gateway for sensors and the like, this looks more impressive. --> dsnyders: http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/dragrove-generic-gateway-for-internet-of-things-p-1118.html?cPath=139_141
[16:14] <mirak> MonkeyDust: in fact never mind I might just do a raw image of my / partition, that would be easier to restore
[16:14] <ForgeAus> deitarion I'm not going to say apt-get is perfect or anything but it normally meets my needs issues like your having with it, are uncommon for me, and I've had some serious package breaks in the past... sure there are a few times it causes issues but in general its no problem
[16:14] <MonkeyDust> mirak  then rsync is what you want, it can also --exclude folders you don't want to copy
[16:14] <deitarion> ForgeAus: I just think it feels like something that got "good enough" at least five years before Portage and stalled there.
[16:14] <mirak> MonkeyDust: yes. I am just thinking it might be faster and easier to restore with a copy with dd
[16:15] <cristian_c> Hi
[16:16] <ForgeAus> deitarion well most of Ubuntu is pre-compiled packages for one afaik not much source installs its just different, and its more the wrappers/interfaces to dpkg that evolve rather than dpkg itself but I'm not saying it can't be made better
[16:16] <mirak> MonkeyDust: how do you restore after that ?
[16:17] <MonkeyDust> mirak  moment
[16:17] <deitarion> ForgeAus: *nod* If I can ever find the time, I want to write a replacement or wrapper for apt-cache search to make it more like Gentoo's equivalent. (It's called "eix" but the site's currently down)
[16:17] <ForgeAus> deitarion sounds awesome :) I wish you good luck
[16:17] <Chuck_Norris> deitarion: use "alias"
[16:17] <deitarion> ForgeAus: Here's a screenshot from someone's blog. Sorry about the bad font. --> http://www.pablumfication.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/123.jpg
[16:18] <deitarion> Chuck_Norris: As far as I know, it's not possible to alias apt-cache search into what that screenshot shows.
[16:18] <Chuck_Norris> oh! sry i missunderstand =P
[16:18] <rabbi1> ubuntu 12.04 is same for AMD64 and Intel 64 bit ?
[16:18] <zoogoo> I have just built myself  nice new pc and have windows 7 on it due to graphics drivers being well done. However i would like to put ubuntu on this pc as my main OS. I have 2 questions for you all. First off is it possible to disable the Unity bar and also is the ATI Radeon HD 7770 fully supported within ubuntu? all i want to play is unreal tournament through steamunder crossover games (this
[16:18] <zoogoo> works well in other distro's on other pc's)
[16:19] <deitarion> rabbi1: Yeah. The architecture is called amd64 because AMD designed it while Intel was puttering around with their Itanium architecture.
[16:19] <ForgeAus> deitarion that output suits portage nicely
[16:19] <MonkeyDust> mirak  http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032296/
[16:19] <ForgeAus> deitarion note apt-get doesn't have stuff like USE flags afaik
[16:19] <Chuck_Norris> rabbi1: if you want ubuntu 64 bits download "ubuntu x86_64"
[16:19] <rabbi1> deitarion: thanks, but itanium are also 64 bit ?
[16:19] <Timbo> slightly random question; where's the best place to start to get a patch included in an ubuntu package?
[16:19] <deitarion> ForgeAus: Yeah. A little richer than what dpkg needs, but it's still like comparing Google and Bing as far as relevance and comfort go.
[16:20] <Timbo> bug report on the package in launchpad?
[16:20] <rabbi1> Chuck_Norris: then, that's different
[16:20] <deitarion> rabbi1: Yeah. Itanium, AMD64, 64-bit PowerPC, etc. are all different 64-bit architectures.
[16:20] <Chuck_Norris> ye
[16:20] <deitarion> rabbi1: AMD calls it AMD64, Intel calls it EM64T, and people who want to be diplomatic call it x86_64.
[16:21] <rabbi1> thanks guys :)
[16:21] <compdoc> itanium is a cpu that we were not going to be able to afford. its for servers. Intel liked it that way
[16:22] <deitarion> Itanium also flopped because its 32-bit compatibility was unappealingly slow.
[16:23]  * ForgeAus wonders what 128 bit will be like
[16:24] <nUwb> I have a question, I know how to tell if my pc is 32 or 64 bit in windows, how do I do that in ubuntu?
[16:24] <dlentz> uname -a will show the running kernel
[16:24] <Chuck_Norris> guys the new version of "Beatbox" rocks give it a try: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/05/beatbox-music-player-sees-new-release-on-ubuntu
[16:24] <compdoc> nUwb, in Windows, open the system control panel
[16:24] <deitarion> ForgeAus: Not something to worry about for a while, I suspect. What with 64-bit addressing being capable of handling something like 2 exabytes.
[16:25] <dlentz> cat /proc/cpuinfo -gre -i lm will show whether your CPU is 64-bit capable regardless of what you
[16:25] <dlentz> re currently runnin
[16:25] <Chuck_Norris> just press the "info" buton and you will see the Beatbox's magic
[16:25] <Chuck_Norris> nUwb: what is your procesor?
[16:25] <nUwb> dlentz: thanks
[16:25] <dlentz> sorry, should have been cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -i lm
[16:25] <Chuck_Norris> dlentz: tell ya =P
[16:25] <deitarion> Chuck_Norris: That depends on who you are. I have two valid reasons I'll never use it.
[16:26] <eoss> Hello, I AM IN /etc/network/interfaces and trying to add customer DNS to ubuntu 12.04
[16:26] <MonkeyDust> nUwb  what's the outcome of lshw | grep 64 ?
[16:26] <eoss> from what i have gathered if i want to do that id have to make everything static including IP?
[16:26] <deitarion> Chuck_Norris: 1. I like my media player's UI to be tall and narrow and nothing but a playlist to complement my media keys.
[16:26] <eoss> can someone give me an example line fo adding custom DNS for their wlan0 interface
[16:26] <deitarion> Chuck_Norris: 2. Nothing but Audacious Media Player supports all the chiptune formats I love.
[16:27] <nUwb> MonkeyDust: give me a sec...
[16:27] <dsnyders> ForgeAus, My guess is that it will be unremarkable.  What we lack in data path width, we make up for in processor speed.  The processor is not the bottleneck in most systems.  For most people, running email, browsers, office products and the like, even 64 vs 32 bit is not perceptible.
[16:27] <Chuck_Norris> deitarion: http://i.imgur.com/VsMbk.jpg
[16:27] <MonkeyDust> nUwb  use pastebin to show it to the channel
[16:27] <eoss> why would ubuntu make it more difficult to change DNS
[16:27] <eoss> im about done with this distro
[16:27] <Chuck_Norris> nUwb: what is your procesor and how much ram do you have?
[16:27] <nUwb> MonkeyDutst: AH! That did it
[16:27] <ForgeAus> dsnyders I agree for the most part ...
[16:27] <deitarion> dsnyders: Or it'll be remarkable in that it'll actually be able to run a web browser at reasonable speed with more than a handful of tabs open. :P
[16:28] <dlentz> deitarion, i <3 audacious
[16:28] <mirak> can I remount / as readonly even when under the desktop ?
[16:28] <nUwb> Chuck_Norris: intel celeron D processor 365
[16:28] <ForgeAus> deitarion no by then software will be so bloated beyond any exabyte limit :)
[16:28] <nUwb> it use to have xp on it
[16:28] <ForgeAus> deitarion ok so I don't really believe that :) I was just being cynical for humor
[16:29] <deitarion> ForgeAus: Point. I'm too used to running Lubuntu where everything but the browser is still lightweight and zippy.
[16:29] <Chuck_Norris> nUwb: install ubuntu 32 bit
[16:29] <ForgeAus> is that the attraction to lubuntu I always wondered what the point was
[16:30] <ForgeAus> I'm mostly a kde person myself .. heavy but I find it comfortably functional for me...
[16:30] <nUwb> Chuck_Norris: how can you tell what to install?
[16:30] <cn28h> for some reason, after updating my 12.04 system my sound is super quiet and kind of low quality... googling around I see others with the same issue but no resolution.  Anybody here know how to fix it by chance?
[16:30] <beatpanic> hi, when I go to youtube and try to play a video with flash plugin and alsa plugin container, it basically has intermittent sound, someone has experienced this behavior? thanks
[16:30] <Chuck_Norris> audacius make me remember windows musics players so, i don use it :D
[16:30] <Chuck_Norris> nUwb: becouse this procesor doesn't suppor 64 bit
[16:31] <vinu> Hey thanks MonkeyDust,Seveas. its really helpfull
[16:31] <esing> yo
[16:31] <nUwb> Chuck_Norris: O.k.
[16:31] <ForgeAus> deitarion also I came to linux from a windows background so that probably puts a whole different spin on stuff
[16:31] <deitarion> ForgeAus: I used to be a devout KDE user until they replaced KDE 3.5 with KDE 4. After waiting through KDE 4.5, I decided that, if Konqueror was going to stay too buggy to be usable as a generic tabbed KPart harness anyway and KWin and Qt4 were going to stay far too sluggish and crashy, I'd switch away. (It helped that GTK+'s file dialogs had recently been fixed to no longer be horrendously sluggish on big folders)
[16:32] <deitarion> I also didn't take too kindly to the realization that, as one geek in a basement, I have more formalized quality control for my creations than they do and they don't see a problem with that.
[16:32] <nUwb> Chuck_Norris: I actually bought a new box with windows vista but didn't have the heart to throw this one away :)
[16:32] <ForgeAus> deitarion now that made sense, I always hated the kde3.5-4 switch but 4 is getting usable again ...
[16:33] <slayer_> hello, how do i restart my audio in ubuntu 12.10?
[16:33] <slayer_> /etc/init.d/alsa doesn't seem to exist
[16:33] <dlentz> Chuck_Norris, audacious can use winamp skins, but i use the native gtk mode
[16:33] <deitarion> ForgeAus: I've heard people say that every time they release a new version. I've decided it'd be easier to just get comfortable with LXDE and focus on getting things done.
[16:33] <dsnyders> ForgeAus, deitarion,  If I wanted to try kde, is it simply an apt-get away?
[16:34] <deitarion> dsnyders: Yes, though Kubuntu isn't as polished as some KDE-focused distros.
[16:34] <dlentz> slayer run sudo alsa force-reload
[16:34] <nUwb> Chuck_Norris: I did what MonkeyDust suggested lshw | grep 64 and the output says "width: 64 bits"
[16:34] <ForgeAus> dsnyders my current linux is a kubuntu
[16:34] <nUwb> what does that mean?
[16:34] <ForgeAus> deitarion really? like what?
[16:34] <deitarion> ForgeAus: I forget. It's been a while since I looked into them. (I also think some of them might have been RPM-based and I despise RPM)
[16:35] <ForgeAus> deitarion PCLinuxOS doesn't feel like its integrated at all, feels like linux wiht KDE slapped on top, I don't know anythinga bout Suse but kubuntu feels very much integrated with kde...
[16:35] <ForgeAus> deitarion I'm going to start venturing into rpm's in a chroot jail
[16:35] <dlentz> nUwb, celeron d 365 is s64-bit capable: http://ark.intel.com/products/27975/Intel-Celeron-D-Processor-365-(512K-Cache-3_60-GHz-533-MHz-FSB)
[16:35] <deitarion> ForgeAus: The annoying thing about that is that RPM-based distros have no debootstrap despite having a package-building/testing framework (mork) which would really benefit from it.
[16:35] <twig11> I need somebody to take a look at my Xorg.0.log and see if you can see why I'm getting multiple ubuntu error messages ever since a failed attempt to upgrade my graphics to an ATI Radeon PCI card from the onboard intel graphics on a Dell Optiplex GX520. My current Xorg.0.log contents are at http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032321/.
[16:35] <ForgeAus> deitarion I've avoided them like the plague until now... I think its time I tried it
[16:36] <ForgeAus> deitarion they have rince and febootstrap I think not sure how current they are though
[16:36] <deitarion> ForgeAus: I'd probably just mount an ISO in a VirtualBox VM to test out an RPM distro... at least initially.
[16:36] <ForgeAus> Virtual machines, been there do lots of that, I want to learn something :)
[16:36] <nUwb> dlentz: oh, i think i understand now
[16:36] <dlentz> opensuse is a good KDE distro, mageia 2 just came out as well and that is KDE-focused
[16:36] <deitarion> ForgeAus: Hmm. I'll have to check my notes. Not sure whether I missed those or just dismissed them as unsuitable.
[16:37] <twig11> twig11: Just to be clear, I'm currently using the onboard graphics again and I do have 3D. I just get a bunch of System Problem dialog boxes popping up each time I log in and I'm having a hard time making sense out of them.
[16:37] <ForgeAus> deitarion probably unsuitalbe at least I hope so
[16:37] <nUwb> dlentz: thanks
[16:37] <dlentz> yw
[16:37] <deitarion> ForgeAus: As for VMs, I've had so little free time for so long that I tend to go for the targeted, high return-on-investment solutions.
[16:38] <wolfgang> How do i uninstall somthing?
[16:38] <deitarion> wolfgang: GUI or console?
[16:38] <wolfgang> What do you mean?
[16:38] <deitarion> wolfgang: Do you want to uninstall using `apt-get` or using a GUI tool like Synaptic or Ubuntu Software Center?
[16:39] <yeats> wolfgang: how did you install what you installed?
[16:39] <wolfgang> Gui
[16:39] <wolfgang> Software center
[16:39] <qubit[0|1]> anyone know what redwood-broker is ?
[16:40] <deitarion> wolfgang: Ok. Let me dig up some screenshots. (I don't help my brothers enough to have much experience with the annoyingly commercialized aspects of Ubuntu.)
[16:40] <wolfgang> Ok
[16:41] <ForgeAus> deitarion note PCLinuxOS is (or at least originated as) a Mandriva-based distro that uses apt-rpm (like an apt-get wrapper around rpm packages isntead of .debs)
[16:41] <ForgeAus> don't ask me if it uses dpkg or not I don't actually know
[16:41] <deitarion> ForgeAus: Huh. Interesting approach.
[16:41] <ForgeAus> its also a rolling release
[16:42] <deitarion> ForgeAus: One of the reasons I went from Mandrake 10.0 to Gentoo one year after first switching to Linux.
[16:42] <deitarion> That is, one year after ditching my dual-boot setup.
[16:43] <deitarion> wolfgang: Ok, I'm having trouble finding good up-to-date screenshots but try searching up the package you want to uninstall.
[16:43] <wolfgang> Ok
[16:44] <ForgeAus> this mageia is also rpm-based I haven't heard about this distro til now, just checking it out a little
[16:44] <wolfgang> deitarion, found it
[16:45] <deitarion> wolfgang: Are you looking at a results list or at the page for it right now?
[16:45] <wolfgang> The result list
[16:45] <deitarion> wolfgang: Try right-clicking it.  Let's see if the Software Center devs thought to put a context menu on it.
[16:45] <wolfgang> Oh it says remove
[16:45] <wolfgang> lol sorry
[16:46] <zoogoo> is that gui script about for the gentoo install?
[16:46] <zoogoo> sorry, wrong window
[16:46] <ForgeAus> oh mageia is just mandriva delveopers after they were dropped from commercial ... so its the neo opensource mandriva ...
[16:46] <ForgeAus> essentially
[16:46] <ForgeAus> something like that
[16:46] <wolfgang> Will that get rid of it all the way?
[16:46] <hrmartin> Is there a reason to add RAM on an old laptop running 12.04
[16:46] <wolfgang> or still sub files?
[16:47] <deitarion> wolfgang: I'm not sure about how software center would do it. In the terminal, there are three different things that can be removed.
[16:47] <compdoc> hrmartin, depends on hos much it has
[16:47] <compdoc> how
[16:47] <{Smiles}> my mouse has a biy pf a lag to it...how can i fix that?
[16:47] <dlentz> hrmartin, it depends on how much RAM you have and whether you actually use all of it
[16:47] <{Smiles}> bit*
[16:47] <v1adimir> anyone using privoxy, on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Privoxy says to run sudo vi /etc/privoxy/config but with that I can't edit in the terminal; can I just edit the file directly?
[16:47] <wolfgang> Ok well its removing it Just wondering if i have to find sub files
[16:47] <{Smiles}> my mouse has a bit of a lag to it...how can i fix that?
[16:47] <ForgeAus> lol the Q build for Ubuntu is Quantal Quetzel?
[16:47] <ForgeAus> intersting
[16:48] <compdoc> v1adimir, use nano instead, if thats what you like
[16:48] <SwashBuckla> GRUB2 question: I have set the TIMEOUT=0. Is it possible to still select a different OS at boot?
[16:48] <deitarion> wolfgang: The two parts that could be left behind are config files and dependencies now no longer required.
[16:48] <compdoc> or gedit
[16:48] <hrmartin> HELP Is there a reason to add RAM on an old laptop running 12.04
[16:48] <wolfgang> How do i find though?
[16:48] <wolfgang> *thoughs
[16:48] <v1adimir> compdoc: thanks, just installed, so figuring everything out
[16:48] <dlentz> hrmartin, we already told you..
[16:48] <BlueChaos> hellow guys
[16:48] <MonkeyDust> hrmartin  if you want to suspend/hibernate
[16:48] <BlueChaos> I have a question to do
[16:48] <deitarion> wolfgang: You can flush all the unnecessary dependencies on your system (left by any packages) by running `sudo apt-get autoremove` in a terminal. (Not sure about GUI)
[16:48] <hrmartin> sorry new to this. Where ?
[16:49] <BlueChaos> how to burn up one cd using ubuntu 12.04
[16:49] <wolfgang> Ok Won't get rid of my other stuff?
[16:49] <dlentz> hrmartin, it depends on how much RAM you have and whether you actually use all of it (check free -m command under heacy load)
[16:49] <BlueChaos> someone can tell me one software to burn a CD  ?
[16:49] <MonkeyDust> BlueChaos  brasero
[16:49] <hrmartin> dlentz I have 1Gb on an old AMD Turion 64 Laptop
[16:49] <dlentz> BlueChaos, ubuntu comes with brasero, k3b is good too
[16:49] <deitarion> wolfgang: No. The autoremove command just gets rid of packages that were pulled in but now aren't needed anymore. (For example, libraries that were used by programs you've now uninstalled)
[16:50] <BlueChaos> dlentz
[16:50] <BlueChaos> Tx
[16:50] <BlueChaos> thx
[16:50] <dlentz> hrmartin, that's a bit low, but if you don't do a lot of mutlitasking, it may be eough
[16:50] <nUwb> SwashBuckla: you do that before the OS loads by pressing either f8 or f10, I think...
[16:50] <dlentz> like isaid, check free -m to see if swap is getting used heavily
[16:50] <wolfgang> Ok thank you
[16:50] <wolfgang> Bey
[16:50] <SwashBuckla> nUwb: no.
[16:50] <SwashBuckla> well I'll try it
[16:51] <hrmartin> dlentz new ubuntu user, new linux user. It revived the old laptop but seems to freeze once inawhile
[16:51] <SwashBuckla> but I think you're talking about the BIOS boot menu, am I right?
[16:51] <SwashBuckla> nUwb: ^
[16:51] <dlentz> SwashBuckla, holding shift brings up grub2 menu
[16:51] <v1adimir> BlueChaos: xubuntu comes with Xfburn
[16:51] <nUwb> nUwb: that's what i thought you were talking about lol
[16:51] <SwashBuckla> SwashBuckla: lol
[16:51] <BlueChaos> vladimir thx for u answer but already instaled  brasero
[16:51] <nUwb> nUwb: sorry about that :)
[16:52] <BlueChaos> now tryng to burn a windows xp sp3
[16:52] <SwashBuckla> SwashBuckla: no worries!
[16:52] <dlentz> hrmartin, if you're running out of RAM, the system usually slows down before freezing
[16:52] <hrmartin> dlentz is there a monitoring app I can use ?
[16:52] <v1adimir> BlueChaos: careful if you haven't integrated the cd yourself, I think the highest from miscrosoft was xp sp2
[16:53] <v1adimir> *integrated the sp
[16:53] <BlueChaos> I wish to make a copy of cd
[16:53] <ForgeAus> kubuntu is no longer going to be with canonical?
[16:53] <BlueChaos> MonkeyDust,
[16:54] <MonkeyDust> ForgeAus  no , community
[16:54] <BlueChaos> I instlled brasero I run it
[16:54] <BlueChaos> and I choise copy cd
[16:54] <ForgeAus> what does that mean its no longer a official ubuntu distro?
[16:54] <BlueChaos> and not need to select target where is cd-rom/cd-writer shows me but I cannot select I click on it and
[16:54] <BlueChaos> don`t occuped the area
[16:55] <deitarion> ForgeAus: Depends on your definition of "official". As I understand it, they'll donate infrastructure, but no longer programmers.
[16:55] <MonkeyDust> BlueChaos  music or video?
[16:55] <twig11> I need somebody to take a look at my Xorg.0.log and see if you can see why I'm getting multiple ubuntu error messages ever since a failed attempt to upgrade my graphics to an ATI Radeon PCI card from the onboard intel graphics on a Dell Optiplex GX520.

[16:55] <BlueChaos> monkey copy of windows
[16:56] <BlueChaos> I insert the windows cd intro dvd-writer and I choise from there copy cd
[16:56] <mobilnoob11> Got some interesting questions...
[16:56] <MonkeyDust> BlueChaos  then you may want to make an .iso of it
[16:56] <twig11> Sorry if somebody answered my question before: Empathy was flaking out  so I didnt' get any replies
[16:56] <BlueChaos> MonkeyDust,  I want to make a copy of windows cd
[16:56] <BlueChaos> omg
[16:56] <v1adimir> twig11: in a funny way that makes me happy that i got nvidia ;)
[16:56] <hrmartin> Is there an app I can use to monitor RAM usage ?
[16:57] <BlueChaos> I select opttions copy Cd and was open one window with
[16:57] <BlueChaos> copycd/dvd
[16:57] <deitarion> hrmartin: Depends on how you want to monitor it.
[16:57] <BlueChaos> select disc to be copy
[16:57] <BlueChaos> and there have my  dvd but I cannotselect
[16:57] <BlueChaos> it
[16:57] <hrmartin> deitarion: I want to know if I'm running out of it. I only have 1Gb on an old laptop
[16:58] <BlueChaos> to press copy
[16:58] <deitarion> hrmartin: I mean more in the way of what user interface you want. The simplest, most primitive way is probably to run `watch -n2 "free -m"` in a terminal.
[16:58] <tomasm-> hi, is there a biff-style mail notification tool in unity that will work with launching thunderbird on compose or viewing details? i see unity mail but it goes to gmail, which doesn't help me. it doesn't even have config options to launch a custom app instead. =(
[16:59] <hrmartin> deitarion: thank you . I'll try that. Sorry if sounds stupid new to linux and ubuntu
[16:59] <deitarion> hrmartin: if you want something more like a desktop or taskbar widget, I'd need to know what desktop you're on.
[16:59] <mobilnoob11> I have installed ubuntu on this Acer Aspire 5250, it was freezing due to some ethernet issue, I found this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11249189 . As per this post i edited rc.local and added: modprobe -r atl1c. now it doesn't freeze, but My ethernet doesn't work. What is going on here?
[17:00] <hrmartin> deitarion: ?? euh ! Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
[17:00] <twig11> v1adimir: I would have gone with Nvidia if I hadn't had this one lying around. From what I'm reading my Radeon card should be able to do 3d with the default ubuntu drivers though. However, it didn't work for me and I couldn't find any two sources that agreed on how to get it working. So I tried a bunch of stuff, some of which I didn't really understand and naturally ended up issues I couldn't undo.
[17:00] <deitarion> hrmartin: So Unity then. (In addition to Ubuntu, there's Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Lubuntu which use different software)
[17:01] <hrmartin> deitarion: your command says FREE 93 on the first line. seems low if it's 93kb (or is it Mb)
[17:01] <twig11> v1adimir: Glad to have given you warm fuzzies about your nvidia card though
[17:01] <hrmartin> deitarion yes unity . this I know
[17:01] <v1adimir> twig11: :))
[17:01] <deitarion> hrmartin: Look at the "-/+ buffers/cache" line. Linux uses unused memory as disk cache to improve performance.
[17:02] <v1adimir> twig11: sorz im new on this thing, id help if i could
[17:02] <edwinkcw> hi all, how to find out how much memory for a specific process? let say how much ram used by apache
[17:02] <hrmartin> deitarion: under the "free" column 210
[17:02] <hrmartin> deitarion: is this enough ?
[17:02] <hrmartin> deitarion: my computer froze a couple of times this morning.... completely new install
[17:02] <deitarion> hrmartin: I'm not sure. I use Lubuntu (LXDE) rather than Ubuntu (GNOME+Unity) because it's more lightweight.
[17:02] <ForgeAus> its geting more and more difficult to find derivatives on the ubuntu website
[17:03] <deitarion> hrmartin: How did it freeze? Did it slow down before it froze?
[17:03] <twig11> v1adimir: yeah np. I'll post again after awhile. Doesn't look like we've got an expert online who's interested in tackling a graphics problem at the moment.
[17:03] <theorem> is there a way to remount / as rw when in recovery mode?  mount -o rw,remount -force     is not doing it for me  :(
[17:03] <zykotick9> edwinkcw: top or htop will show memory as a %
[17:03] <exicer> Hm, if I've installed something from source, how can I uninstall that thing?
[17:03] <ForgeAus> I'm starting to wonder if maybe I should start looking fora  different distro :(
[17:03] <wolfgang> Hay I would like to know how to back up my files, and where to do it to.
[17:03] <theorem> exicer :just find the install makefile and run : make deinstall
[17:04] <hrmartin> deitarion: well the mouse moves but nothing else happens. I mostly only use chrome. So i can't really say it slowed down first. Just nothing was hapenning for over 5 minutes
[17:04] <edwinkcw> zykotick9: but I want to show apache only
[17:04] <zykotick9> exicer: see if there is a "make uninstall" (source uninstalls can get messy, thus packages are recommended)
[17:04] <ForgeAus> mint is a derivative too but that has nothing to do with canonical and stuff...
[17:04] <exicer> zykotick9, theorem: There doesn't seem to be a make uninstall..
[17:04] <zykotick9> edwinkcw: sorry, I don't know
[17:04] <deitarion> hrmartin: If the mouse moves, then the system isn't frozen... just some part of it.
[17:04] <SwashBuckla> dlentz: holding shift brings up grub2 menu, but only if it's been configured to do so
[17:04] <exicer> zykotick9, theorem: I am potentially doing something stupid though
[17:04] <twig11> I need somebody to take a look at my Xorg.0.log and see if you can see why I'm getting multiple ubuntu error messages ever since a failed attempt to upgrade my graphics to an ATI Radeon PCI card from the onboard intel graphics on a Dell Optiplex GX520. My current Xorg.0.log contents are at http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032321/.
[17:04] <hrmartin> deitarion: agreed
[17:04] <SwashBuckla> I haven't, and since timeout=0 and default=0 (Windows), I can't see a way to boot into ubuntu
[17:05] <wolfgang> I would like to know how to back up my files, and where to do it to?
[17:05] <SwashBuckla> dlentz: can you think of a way to boot into Ubuntu?
[17:05] <deitarion> hrmartin: Given that you're on Unity, it could be that you're running into a bug in the compositor. (The program responsible for taking all the windows, applying pretty visual effects using the GPU, and then drawing them to the screen)
[17:05] <mobilnoob11> Sry to interupt, did anyone catch that question?
[17:05] <theorem> wolfgang : google or dropbox
[17:05] <theorem> wow, it's chatty today!
[17:05] <hrmartin> deitarion: thank you.... should I try a lighter distribution ?
[17:05] <wolfgang> theorem: Ok does dropbox have unlimited storage?
[17:06] <theorem> wolfgan g : if you pay
[17:06] <wolfgang> theorem: Is there a place for free?
[17:06] <deitarion> hrmartin: It'd be worth a try. If you want to do it without reinstalling, I'd suggest installing the lubuntu-desktop package.
[17:06] <twig11> theorem: why wouldn't you recommend U1?
[17:07] <theorem> wolfgang: yes, your stuff
[17:07] <deitarion> hrmartin: That'll pull in Lubuntu so you can choose it from the menu at the login screen.
[17:07] <theorem> twig11 : i'm not sure i trust U1
[17:07] <wolfgang> theorem: What do you mean my stuff?
[17:07] <mobilnoob11> um, hello?
[17:08] <wolfgang> Hello
[17:08] <twig11> theorem: bad experiences or security concerns? If it's security, I'd be just as worried about Dropbox
[17:08] <mobilnoob11> SHould I repost my question?
[17:08] <wolfgang> ya
[17:08] <jeremyIron> hey guys i have a pentium m 1.6 Ghz processor and 2 Gigs of ram is this enough  to have a good ubuntu experience?
[17:08] <theorem> i need to do more research on it
[17:08] <hrmartin> deitarion: thank you. Let me check Lubuntu. Is there a resource page I should check first ?
[17:09] <mobilnoob11> I have installed ubuntu on this Acer Aspire 5250, it was freezing due to some ethernet issue, I found this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11249189 . As per this post i edited rc.local and added: modprobe -r atl1c. now it doesn't freeze, but My ethernet doesn't work. What is going on here?
[17:09] <mobilnoob11> that pentium 1.6 should run fine
[17:09] <twig11> wolfgang: are you familiar with ubuntu's built-in file sync service, Ubuntu One?
[17:09] <wolfgang> twig11: is it unlimited and free?
[17:09] <theorem> twig11what about sparkleshare?
[17:09] <jeremyIron> mobilnoob11: thanks dude
[17:09] <wolfgang> twig11: it says stuff to me sometimes
[17:10] <v1adimir> wolfgang: https://one.ubuntu.com/
[17:10] <deitarion> hrmartin: Define "resource page"
[17:10] <v1adimir> and no
[17:10] <theorem> twig11 : do you know a way to mount just / as rw instead of the whole fstab when in ubuntu recovery mode?
[17:10] <wolfgang> its not unlimited?
[17:10] <v1adimir> 5gb from the front page
[17:11] <theorem> wolfgang , why would it be?
[17:11] <wolfgang> i dont know
[17:11] <mobilnoob11> I was running ubuntu on an athalon 1.2 w 1gig till yesterday
[17:11] <wolfgang> i want something that is
[17:11] <theorem> it's a service, costs money to run.
[17:11] <wolfgang> i have like 150 blank disks of 700 mb would thoughs be better?
[17:11] <mobilnoob11> Did I ask a question no o ne can answer?
[17:11] <jeremyIron> is it the 1.6 pentium m processor capable of perfoming ubuntu 12.04 with ed graphics?
[17:12] <jeremyIron> sorry 3d
[17:12] <mobilnoob11> I don't know jeremy
[17:12] <theorem> wolfgang: only you can answer that .. but i think that's a terrible idea
[17:12] <v1adimir> wolfgang: i wouldn't go with CDs personally :))) maybe dvd lol
[17:12] <deitarion> wolfgang: Even GMail isn't unlimited. You want "unlimited", there are two options:
[17:12] <wolfgang> Why would it be terrible?
[17:12] <mobilnoob11> I really don't want to post my question a third time.
[17:13] <theorem> is he a troll or really that dumb?
[17:13] <wolfgang> Me?
[17:13] <theorem> :(
[17:13] <wolfgang> Me?
[17:13] <theorem> consider how you would revoer with 150 CDs
[17:13] <escott> some empathy developer decided i would rather manage my contacts list in google. so now its all screwed up. anyone know how to undo this?
[17:13] <theorem> recover
[17:13] <deitarion> wolfgang: I think he's talking about mobilnoob11
[17:13] <twig11> theorem: no looks like something beyond my skills
[17:13] <hrmartin> deitarion: a web site to help me with the install
[17:14] <v1adimir> wolfgang: it would take a month to do 150 cds xD
[17:14] <chatty99> hey
[17:14] <wolfgang> Well i dont know if i need all 150
[17:14] <theorem> crap , ok, twig .. it's very basic, but causing me a headache
[17:14] <deitarion> wolfgang: Option 1: Use an external hard drive. (They're $100 for 1TB on sale)
[17:14] <wolfgang> they are 700 mb each
[17:14] <mobilnoob11> How am I involved in this?
[17:14] <jeremyIron> jajajjaja
[17:14] <deitarion> wolfgang: Option 2: Pay a monthly fee.
[17:14] <chatty99> is it a good idea to make resolv.conf read only?
[17:15] <jeremyIron> ok gotta go no thanks for the info mobilnoob11:
[17:15] <wolfgang> Would new egg be a good place forexternal hard drives?
[17:15] <theorem> wolf : yes
[17:15] <deitarion> hrmartin: If you want to install Lubuntu into an existing Ubuntu install, just install the "lubuntu-desktop" package, log out, and choose Lubuntu from the selector in the login screen. No guide necessary.
[17:15] <mobilnoob11> ?
[17:15] <wolfgang> Ok thanks
[17:15] <deitarion> hrmartin: If you want to install it fresh using an install disc, there's a wizard.
[17:15] <v1adimir> wolfgang: cross-check the prices man :) sometimes the same device costs less somwhere else
[17:15] <mobilnoob11> What did I do?
[17:15] <chatty99> is it a good idea to make resolv.conf read only?
[17:15] <wolfgang> Ok
[17:16] <twig11> wolfgang: Just got one there myself. Store your drive somewhere away from your computer so anything that happens to one doesn't happen to both.
[17:16] <hrmartin> deitarion: if I can use the word "cool" in this forum I'll say it : cool. Logging out. I am Hugo R. Martin on G+
[17:16] <hrmartin> exit
[17:16] <deitarion> I don't use G+
[17:16] <wolfgang> Ok what do you mean store away?
[17:16] <ethek> Both my UbuntuOne and Ubuntu software center crash with ...crashed with DBUSException in call blocking(): org freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChiledExited: Process /usr/lib/ubuntu-sso-client/ubuntu-sso-login exited with status 1.
[17:16] <mobilnoob11> Who decided that I'm a troll?
[17:16] <theorem> ?
[17:16] <wolfgang> keep away from it?
[17:17] <v1adimir> twig11: yeah unless the USB is plugged in, when the power supply blows ;p
[17:17] <wolfgang> i thought external was usb?
[17:17] <eeriks> What is new in "Ubuntu 11.04 'Natty Narwhal."?
[17:17] <v1adimir> true story
[17:17] <twig11> wolfgang: Store the backup somewhere different than where you have your stuff now.
[17:17] <wolfgang> Ok
[17:18] <mobilnoob11> HELLO!
[17:18] <wolfgang> Where do i find stuff on external hardrdive on on newegg.com ?
[17:18] <SwashBuckla> dlentz: ?
[17:18] <twig11> wolfgang: so if somebody breaks into your house and steals your computer, you'll still have your hard drive backup
[17:19] <wolfgang> Ok
[17:19] <v1adimir> if someone broke into my house to steal the pc, they wouldn't walk out alive :)
[17:19] <ethek> how do I troubleshoot my error, Im not getting anything. Is there a way to reinstall  the SSO client without Software center (which does not load)
[17:19] <wolfgang> My comp is 8 years old just don't want to lose data no one will steal it.
[17:19] <twig11> v1adimir: good to know :-)
[17:19] <v1adimir> hehe
[17:20] <mobilnoob11> Ok, well, I was hoping to get some insight into this, but I guess you are all busy.
[17:20] <mobilnoob11> Or you don't know...
[17:21] <modernbob> ls
[17:21] <wolfgang> would external hard drive be in hard drive sec of newegg.com ?
[17:22] <mobilnoob11> shut up
[17:22] <mobilnoob11> idiot
[17:22] <mobilnoob11> I have an actual question
[17:22] <twig11> wolfgang: The nature of tech being what it is, you should really have your data copied in at least 3 places if it is important and irreplaceable. My business data, for example, is backed up to two computers, an external drive, online, and occasionally to an encrypted flash usb drive I carry with me. It's pretty hard for any disaster to shut me down that way.
[17:22] <deitarion> wolfgang: Yes. hard drives > external hard drives
[17:22] <v1adimir> mobilnoob11: that's a good way to go about it, gr8
[17:22] <LordDeath> in the default ubuntu 12.04 installation is there a firewall installed?
[17:22] <deitarion> mobilnoob11: I was considering looking back at what you wanted, but if you're going to be rude to someone I was helping, forget it.
[17:23] <mobilnoob11> whatever, if this guys can't buy a harddrive......
[17:23] <v1adimir> LordDeath: ufw uh.. the command is
[17:23] <SwashBuckla> holding shift brings up grub2 menu, but only if it's been configured to do so
[17:23] <SwashBuckla> I haven't, and since timeout=0 and default=0 (Windows), I can't see a way to boot into ubuntu
[17:24] <deitarion> mobilnoob11: He asked a quick question to save himself a little effort. It wasn't ideal, but rudeness automatically makes you wrong.
[17:24] <v1adimir> LordDeath: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW not sure if it's only on xubuntu
[17:24] <wolfgang> is 500GB more than a terribite
[17:24] <wolfgang> ?
[17:24] <mobilnoob11> k
[17:24] <SwashBuckla> how can I boot into Ubuntu if GRUB2 TIMEOUT=0 and DEFAULT=0 (Windows)?
[17:24] <mobilnoob11> well you have been ignoring me, which is also rude
[17:24] <deitarion> wolfgang: No. Terabyte = 1000 Gigabytes
[17:24] <jrdnn> wolfgang it's half a terabyte
[17:24] <mobilnoob11> so we are all wrong
[17:24] <SwashBuckla> wolfgang: no
[17:24] <deitarion> mobilnoob11: I can only help so many people. Ignoring some to help others is expected.
[17:24] <wolfgang> holly carp it's 80 dollars
[17:24] <ethek> maybe my problem is with SSO?
[17:24] <mobilnoob11> you could just say that
[17:25] <jrdnn> wolfgang shop around more you can get like 2TB for 80 dollars nowadays
[17:25] <mobilnoob11> either way, I don't think you would know anyway
[17:25] <hrmartin> deitarion: sorry me again. only Ubuntu and ubuntu 2d in the "login menu" how to I install Lubuntu ??
[17:25] <wolfgang> jrdnn: where at?
[17:25] <deitarion> hrmartin: The simplest way for me to explain would probably be to open a terminal and type `sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop`
[17:25] <v1adimir> mobilnoob11: are you serious now, you think being here is yor right? ;)
[17:25] <jrdnn> wolfgang newegg, maybe tigerdirect
[17:25] <wolfgang> Ok
[17:25] <mobilnoob11> no, just want some help
[17:25] <hrmartin> deitarion: consider it done !
[17:26] <mobilnoob11> either way, I didn't come here for this.
[17:26] <deitarion> wolfgang: The Canadian NewEgg has everything from 500GB for $80 CAD to 1TiB for $120 CAD just on the featured drives page for the external hard drives section. Look around.
[17:26] <v1adimir> just chill man, someone will help
[17:27] <SwashBuckla> GRUB2 question: I have set the TIMEOUT=0 and the DEFAULT=0 (Windows). Can I still boot Ubuntu?
[17:27] <jrdnn> deitarion which brands list drive space in tibibytes?
[17:27] <deitarion> jrdnn: Oops. Muscle memory.
[17:28] <mobilnoob11> Ok thanks guys. Love getting ignored, attitude and no help. Wow, way to win people over.
[17:28] <ozpy> OpenVPN issue on ubuntu 12.04: I installed openVPN and rebooted my dell studio 1555. When going to "add VPN", I don't get the option... only PPTP. On linux mint I have no drama
[17:28] <deitarion> mobilnoob11: wait
[17:28] <Bahaman> Hi im somewhat new to ubuntu(linux) and im currently running 11.10. However 12.04 update is available, what will happen if i update? Will I lose all my data?
[17:29] <deitarion> mobilnoob11: Just finished reading what you said. I still think you're being rude, but since you genuinely seem to have slipped through the cracks (it's a trivial question to answer), I'll answer it for you.
[17:29] <rhizmoe> Bahaman: no, but you should backup beforehand anyway. period.
[17:29] <mobilnoob11> I would love that. I will put you on the list of IRC peeps I like.
[17:30] <ozpy> OpenVPN issue on ubuntu 12.04: I installed openVPN and rebooted my dell studio 1555. When going to "add VPN", I don't get the option... only PPTP option. On linux mint I have no drama
[17:30] <deitarion> mobilnoob11: "modprobe -r athl1c" unloads your wireless driver. (For future reference, you can read about it with the `man modprobe` command)
[17:30] <jrdnn> Bahaman unless the update process is way different than a year ago you should be able to update and keep all your data and programs
[17:30] <jemark> did you install the openvpn plugin for gnome-networkmanager?
[17:30] <Bahaman> rhizmoe: did it really go so fast from 11.10 to 12.04 or is there some sort of different versions?
[17:31] <deitarion> mobilnoob11: If that fixes your problem, the best guess I have is that the currently-included version of the driver has a bug in it that causes your system to freeze.
[17:31] <roshanpiyush> hi
[17:31] <jemark> hi roshanpiyush
[17:31] <jrdnn> hello
[17:32] <ethek> can help me troubleshoot why my SSO-client seems to be crashing both my Ubuntu Software Center and Ubuntu One?  Two of my Ubuntu native apps crash on startup
[17:32] <deitarion> mobilnoob11: I'm not familiar with your particular hardware (the only WiFi-enabled device I own is a pocket computer I connect using a USB wired ethernet adapter) so give me a sec to read more of that thread.
[17:32] <mobilnoob11> I really appreciate it, I didn't exect you to spend time on it.
[17:33] <niagr_> mobilnoob11: welcome to the ubuntu community :)
[17:34] <mobilnoob11> thanks

[17:34] <wolfgang> Hay would sun java six be good for minecraft?
[17:34] <wolfgang> i have it but not sure
[17:35] <deitarion> wolfgang: That or IcedTea 6. They say to use Sun Java 6, but I have no problems playing Minecraft with IcedTea 6 either.
[17:35] <wolfgang> Ok
[17:35] <deitarion> Just don't use Sun Java 7 or IcedTea 7. They don't yet support it and you'll get a blank, black window.
[17:35] <ejo> but blank, black windows are so calming!
[17:36] <deitarion> mobilnoob11: Ok, so let me see if I understand the situation. Your system normally freezes, but removing that module stops the fixes, but it kills your wireless support and you need wireless?
[17:36] <mobilnoob11> no
[17:36] <deitarion> s/stops the fixes/stops the freezes/
[17:36] <DJones> wolfgang: I play minecraft using sun java 6 or open jdk java 6, both work with no problems
[17:36] <wolfgang> Also I used to run servers on my desktop with bukkit but had to static ip how do i do that now i had to dump harddrive so i need to static ip again?
[17:36] <deitarion> mobilnoob11: Ok. Mind clarifying? I'm obviously missing something.
[17:37] <wolfgang>  I used to run servers on my desktop with bukkit but had to static ip how do i do that now i had to dump harddrive so i need to static ip again?
[17:37] <mobilnoob11> it freezes if the ethernet is removed. but I added that to rc.local, and it doesn't freeze, but the ethernet doesn't work. The wireless works fine.
[17:37] <wolfgang> do i need to re do that?
[17:37] <raven> recent update within 12.04 xubuntu = NO network any more on eeepc 1005 ha - how to reparir that
[17:37] <deitarion> wolfgang: Do you really need a static IP or do you just need something you can hand out to people?
[17:37] <arkanabar> I'm in a pickle.  My mobo won't boot from USB, and my CD-rom causes kernel panics when I try to boot.  Is there a way to put an Ubuntu .ISO file on my HD, and boot from that?
[17:37] <deitarion> mobilnoob11: Ahh. Hmm.
[17:37] <wolfgang> I have a belkin that required it to port forward
[17:38] <SwashBuckla> GRUB2 question: I have set the TIMEOUT=0 and the DEFAULT=0 (Windows). Can I still boot Ubuntu?
[17:38] <deitarion> wolfgang: Ahh. Check if your router lets you do static IP on the router side. (Pinning a specific internal IP to a specific MAC address)
[17:39] <wolfgang> How? the phisical router or do i check from comp?
[17:39] <wolfgang> deitarion: How? the phisical router or do i check from comp?
[17:40] <mobilnoob11> So ethernet works, unplug ethernet = freeze. rc.local edited =  no freeze, no ethernet
[17:40] <arkanabar> wolfgang -- this is something you ought to do through your router's web interface.
[17:40] <wolfgang> Ok so but my default gateway in url bar?
[17:40] <mobilnoob11> btw, sorry wolfgang.
[17:41] <mobilnoob11> I'm a jerk.
[17:41] <wolfgang> how?
[17:41] <compdoc> arkanabar, can you attach the drive to another system and install Ubuntu to the point where its ready to reboot?
[17:41] <wolfgang> mobilnoob11: what did you do?
[17:41] <arkanabar> wolfgang -- I guess so.  You might also want to search the web, to see if yourmodel supports what deitarion suggested.
[17:41] <sirriffsalot> How is Linux in terms of viruses these days?
[17:41] <arkanabar> compdoc -- nope.
[17:41] <wolfgang> Ok
[17:42] <jrdnn> sirriffsalot people can make viruses for pretty much any OS but there happen to be a lot less Linux ones
[17:42] <arkanabar> sirriffsalot: there are none.
[17:42] <wolfgang> Not sure what he did suggest though
[17:42] <sirriffsalot> Haha, contradiction alarm here... evidence please?:P
[17:42] <arkanabar>  wolfgang: Ahh. Check if your router lets you do static IP on the router side. (Pinning a specific internal IP to a specific MAC address)
[17:42] <wolfgang> Ok whats it mean lol
[17:42] <deitarion> mobilnoob11: I'm not entirely sure what that specific module is, but it sounds like it's probably your wired ethernet driver and, by removing it, you avoid a bug that's freezing your system.
[17:42] <wolfgang> I'm not to good with comps
[17:43] <raven> recent update within 12.04 xubuntu = NO network any more on eeepc 1005 ha - how to reparir that
[17:43] <sirriffsalot> arkanabar: I'm very unknowledgeable when it comes to viruses... supposing I got some virus that would screw a windows os up completely in my linux OS... what would happen?
[17:43] <arkanabar> this means your router would assign a specific fixed IP (eg, 192.168.1.100) to the Mandatory Access Contol address of your ethernet card.
[17:43] <DJones> !virus | sirriffsalot
[17:43] <deitarion> wolfgang: If you open up your router's web interface in your browser, there may be a panel where you can say "Always give IP address X to the network card with MAC address Y". Sorry for the delay. Had to run and help someone else IRL.
[17:44] <sirriffsalot> DJones: hmm.. ok.. Will check it out. But I'm having trouble believing that Linux doesn't need antivirus at all..
[17:44] <arkanabar> sirriffsalot: you'd have to mount the linux partition in windows, and run the  virus file.
[17:44] <wolfgang> How do i get my default gateway?
[17:44] <wolfgang> to go to webpage
[17:44] <deitarion> sirriffsalot: I forget where I put it, but there's a list of something like 15 reasons that I wrote why Linux doesn't need antivirus.
[17:44] <mobilnoob11> deitation thanks. I will look into it further.
[17:44] <sirriffsalot> arkanabar: but the virus is programmed for windows OS, which is entirely different from Linux I would imagine.. how would it work?
[17:44] <compdoc> sirriffsalot, they provide rkhunter and clamav for linux, so there must be a reason to do so
[17:44] <wolfgang> in windows it was ipconfig still same?
[17:44] <sirriffsalot> deitarion: lemme know if you find it!
[17:45] <sirriffsalot> compdoc: to do what?
[17:45] <wolfgang> default gateway
[17:45] <wolfgang> how do i find it?
[17:45] <arkanabar> I'm in a pickle.  My mobo won't boot from USB, and my CD-rom causes kernel panics when I try to boot.  Is there a way to put an Ubuntu .ISO file on my HD, and boot from that?
[17:45] <deitarion> wolfgang: run `route` in a terminal
[17:45] <wolfgang> ok
[17:45] <deitarion> wolfgang: If you want your ip address, the command is `ifconfig`
[17:46] <deitarion> wolfgang: (The Linux command is more general, so it's "InterFace CONFIG" rather than "IP CONFIG")
[17:47] <wolfgang> wolfgang@Muffin:~$ InterFace CONFIG
[17:47] <wolfgang> InterFace: command not found
[17:47] <wolfgang> what do i do?
[17:47] <bluenemo> hi guys, are there any moorhuhn (shooting those birds by clicking in 2D) clones for ubuntu?
[17:47] <deitarion> wolfgang: "ifconfig" I'm saying it's short for InterFace CONFIG
[17:48] <wolfgang> ok
[17:48] <sirriffsalot> compdoc: reason to do what mate?
[17:48] <wolfgang> there that works
[17:48] <wolfgang> Is There a good way to run batch files on linux?
[17:49] <compdoc> sirriffsalot, scan for root kits and viruses
[17:49] <escott> wolfgang, you just run them. what do you mean?
[17:49] <sirriffsalot> compdoc: ah, yea, that's what I figured too...:)
[17:49] <wolfgang> The windows batch
[17:49] <deitarion> wolfgang: That's a tricky thing to answer because it's sort of like asking whether there's an easy way to use rocket fuel in a plane.
[17:50] <jrdnn> wolfgang learn bash and make a .sh file for non-Windows systems that does the same as your .bat file did
[17:50] <deitarion> wolfgang: Windows has "batch files" which are essentially pale knock-offs of what Linux has. (shell scripts)
[17:50] <ejo> typically windows batch files are composed of instructions to a windows shell.  Given that you probably don't have a windows shell on your linux machine, there's a mismatch there.
[17:50] <Sidewinder1> 32 bit Desktop, 12.04 install; What is the optimal swap partition size? 1.5 or 2, times RAM?
[17:50] <wolfgang> Well i'm used to batch more
[17:51] <wolfgang> in this in terminal i know sudo apt-get install
[17:51] <wolfgang> thats it
[17:51] <rhizmoe> get reading, then
[17:51] <wolfgang> with batch i can do alot more
[17:51] <deitarion> wolfgang: Mind if I message you privately?
[17:51] <wolfgang> ok
[17:51] <wolfgang> i dont mine
[17:52] <wolfgang> mind
[17:52] <ejo> Sidewinder1: if you have a ton of RAM and rarely fill it, you don't really have to go that large.  But if you want to experiment with enabling hibernation you do need to cover your entire RAM size and then some.  The old 1.5 to 2x recommendation was more applicable back when we had 1Gb or less on board and ordinary running of the machine frequently needed more virtual mem than physical mem.
[17:52] <wolfgang> How would you?
[17:53] <bluenemo> can you recommend any cool games for touchscreens? got a x200 tablet (12 inch touchscreen)
[17:53] <damms005> roomie!
[17:54] <escott> wolfgang, you can put commands in a file and start it with #!/bin/sh and then make it executable with chmod +x filename.sh and just run it
[17:54] <jrdnn> wolfgang https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=88674
[17:54] <damms005> I have done it guys. Finally migrated wubi
[17:55] <damms005> but I am afraid, GRUB bootloader installed, windows boot option not there anymore
[17:55] <deitarion> bluenemo: If you don't mind paying at least a penny, The Humble Bundle V has Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP and that's designed for tablets. https://www.humblebundle.com/
[17:56] <bluenemo> fancy, thank you deitarion
[17:57] <deitarion> Pay more than the average ($8.27 at this instant) and you'll get Braid, Lone Survivor, Bastion, and Super Meat Boy with the option to add them to your Ubuntu Software Center account too.
[17:58] <bluenemo> deitarion, those games are all for tablets?
[17:58] <Sidewinder1> ejo, Thanks for the quick response. This is a circa 2006 Dell; 2G RAM {maxed out}, I never hibernate, just the normal screen-saver and occaisionally Ctrl-Alt-L so on that basis, 1.5 to 2?
[17:58] <ejo> yes, pretty much
[17:58] <Sidewinder1> Thanks again!
[17:59] <deitarion> bluenemo: No, but I thought I'd mention that some really popular indie games can be had with proper Ubuntu Software Center integration.
[17:59] <bluenemo> ah ok
[17:59] <damms005> pls anybody know any problem with wubi migrate?  I migrated few minutes ago....The only itch is that I can't see windows in boot startup again(Not a problem though, since I don't need Bill Gates again :))
[17:59] <mobilnoob11> ~Does anyone know of a fix for the suspend/won't wake up issue?
[18:00] <kio> HI, is there a away to make do-release-upgrade without the interaction?
[18:00] <escott> mobilnoob11, depends on your hardware
[18:01] <mobilnoob11> I have an acer aspire 5250
[18:01] <mobilnoob11> perma-sleeps when software suspend or lid close
[18:01] <raven> recent update within 12.04 xubuntu = NO network any more on eeepc 1005 ha - how to reparir that
[18:02] <john23423> hey can somone help me i would liuke to remove the dash to the right in ubuntu
[18:02] <john23423> like*
[18:02] <compdoc> good luck with that
[18:02] <john23423> can i hide it or do anything
[18:03] <xangua> john23423: if you mean the unity launcher, you can't move it
[18:03] <xangua> john23423: you can set it to autohide in the Apearence preferences
[18:03] <escott> mobilnoob11, debugging suspend resume is a time consuming process. you usually start by looking at your kernel modules (lsmod) and going through them one by one adding trying to see if removing that module during the freeze allows the system to thaw correctly
[18:03] <john23423> really ..id rather use cairo
[18:03] <john23423> really
[18:03] <john23423> so i can hide it
[18:04] <john23423> ok another question
[18:04] <john23423> how to i get the run as admin in the file manager right click menu
[18:04] <john23423> do*
[18:04] <hrmartin> deitarion: I'm back. gotta tell you Lubuntu might not be as pretty as Unity, but seems much faster for my particular PC
[18:05] <deitarion> hrmartin: That's the idea.
[18:05] <hrmartin> deitarion: I'm still gonna get some RAM for this machine... very old should be cheap !
[18:06] <deitarion> *nod*
[18:07] <DaniG2k> guys I dont know why but my input method switcher is not showing up. is there a bug?
[18:07] <DaniG2k> it used to show up and i could switch between various languages
[18:07] <DaniG2k> but now it doesnt show up anymore
[18:08] <funto> hi all - I upgraded from 10.04 to 12.04 and Ubuntu doesn't boot anymore
[18:09] <escott> funto, what happens during the boot
[18:09] <funto> "the hard drive for / is not ready yet or is not present"
[18:09] <funto> (approximate translation)
[18:09] <funto> that's the message I get
[18:09] <escott> funto, boot a livecd/liveusb
[18:09] <john23423> ok so there isnt a way to add a run as admin when i click on a file in ubuntu
[18:09] <funto> I am prompted to press M or S, so I can get to a rescue console
[18:10] <funto> with / mounted as read-only
[18:10] <jiohdi> john23423, you can under nautilus
[18:10] <escott> funto, you could go through the rescue console, but its a bit of a pain to work with
[18:10] <funto> escott: I can use Windows in dual boot if needed
[18:10] <john23423> how is it in the file settings?
[18:10] <rethus> hi
[18:10] <jiohdi> john23423, under permissions you have to have it checked to execute
[18:11] <escott> funto, windows wont be useful. either you work through the initrd (rescue console) which is severly limited, or you boot a livecd and chroot in (the advantage is that you can join irc in the livecd and send us output)
[18:11] <jiohdi> or properties
[18:11] <rethus> i still install 12.04 at this moment. i had a 300gb hdd with a own /home-partition. on a new 80GB i install 12.04. whats the best way to install it? Can i plugin the 300GB as LVM?
[18:11] <jiohdi> john23423, its more like run as root
[18:11] <john23423> yea
[18:11] <john23423> thats what i need
[18:12] <john23423> i used to have it in previous version
[18:12] <john23423> its gone now
[18:12] <john23423> so in settings i can get it back?
[18:12] <jiohdi> you can always open a terminal and run sudo ./file
[18:12] <user101> please help me, i canno log with putty to my vmware ubuntu 11.10 server
[18:13] <john23423> i know but i liked having it in a click format i installed a thing to create a menu for naut but there must be an easyer way
[18:13] <arkanabar> I'm in a pickle.  My mobo won't boot from USB, and my CD-rom causes kernel panics when I try to boot.  Is there a way to put an Ubuntu .ISO file on my HD, and boot from that?
[18:13] <user101> is there the iptable enabled?
[18:13] <jiohdi> john23423, you can sudo cp file /usr/bin
[18:13] <jiohdi> then you should be able to open is from any where
[18:14] <jiohdi> it*
[18:14] <john23423> whats that command do
[18:14] <john23423> copy somthing?
[18:14] <jiohdi> cp =copy
[18:14] <john23423> k
[18:14] <jiohdi> anything in /usr/bin is accessable from anywhere in the system
[18:15] <john23423> i get yea
[18:15] <compdoc> arkanabar, if you have kernel panics Im not sure it will matter how you install. Or do you think there is a problem with your cd drive?
[18:15] <john23423> i tell you what linux has a come a long way
[18:15] <john23423> im impressed
[18:15] <john23423> thanks for the help btw
[18:15] <jiohdi> john23423, so has my understanding of it in the last 3 years :)
[18:15] <arkanabar> compdoc: problem w/ CD drive.  The disks work fine in my lappy
[18:15] <DJones> arkanabar: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation#Installation_without_a_CD There's various options to install without a cd listed on this page
[18:15] <john23423> lol i used it when i was a kid but
[18:16] <john23423> rusty
[18:16] <jiohdi> john23423, I am proud of my self, I was able to un-bork my system yesterday without having to do a reinstall
[18:16] <arkanabar> DJones:  looks exactly like what I was looking for.
[18:16] <john23423> unbork?
[18:16] <john23423> im a newb
[18:16] <john23423> lol
[18:16] <dlentz> jiohdi, probably not a good idea to dump stuff in /usr/bin if it doesn't belong to a .deb package (/usr/local/bin would be better)
[18:16] <jiohdi> yea, I added nvidia-current and got a blinking black screen only...
[18:17] <arkanabar> bork:  to totally Foul Up Beyond All Recognition.
[18:17] <john23423> ahhh
[18:17] <jiohdi> but I was able to recover
[18:17] <john23423> yea when i installed it lol it went blank so i thought it was messed up and restarted it
[18:17] <arkanabar> from what they did to Justice Bork when he was nominated to SCOTUS
[18:17] <john23423> finaly figured out it was supposed to do that lmaop
[18:18] <john23423> im tired of winblows
[18:18] <funto> got disconnected -_-
[18:18] <jiohdi> I am using enlightenment bodhilinux which is a ubuntu varient and it does not seem to like nvidia-current
[18:18] <john23423> needed an os change
[18:18] <arkanabar> john23423: that describes pretty much all of us.
 escott: well I can have rw access to the files from windows if needed
[18:18] <john23423> yea im runnin a asus 560
[18:18] <john23423> dont like it either
 I checked with fsck -f and it found the system clean
[18:18] <escott> funto, if you want my help you need to boot the livecd/liveusb
 and /etc/fstab didn't change with the upgrade
 and I don't see anything weird in dmesg output...
 escott: what output would be useful to you? (and thanks for helping btw :))
[18:19] <funto> escott: so I need to make one...long and painful :/
[18:19] <escott> funto, sudo parted -l; sudo blkid; contents of /etc/fstab; contents of /etc/default/grub; contents of /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[18:20] <jiohdi> john23423, btw, check out yakuake if you want a really nifty terminal program.
[18:20] <john23423> thanks i miss this networking of info
[18:20] <john23423> i used mirc when it first came out lmao
[18:20] <jiohdi> john23423, you press a key like f12 or in my case scr lk and it pops down like a heads up display
[18:20] <john23423> lol
[18:20] <john23423> nice
[18:21] <john23423> ok im out laundry to do thanks jio you been a life saver
[18:21] <jiohdi> :)
[18:21] <john23423> have a great day
[18:21] <jiohdi> np
[18:21] <john23423> im sure ill be back lol
[18:22] <john23423> l8rz
[18:22] <alrea7> hi all
[18:23] <josip> hello, if I boot the live distribution from a USB stick, can I copy stuff to the usb stick?
[18:23] <josip> from my local hdd
[18:23] <jrdnn> hi alrea7
[18:25] <escott> josip, depends on if it is a persistent usb
[18:25] <josip> I'm just downloading the normal installation iso
[18:25] <funto> escott: one minute, trying to get all that output to something writeable from the rescue console...
[18:26] <Girffe> Hey, I'm trying to use centerIM to use IRC, but it asks me for a server address instead of a channel name. How can I get a channel's server address from its # name?
[18:26] <jrdnn> Girffe the server address is something like irc.freenode.net, you connect to the server, then join channels in it
[18:26] <jrdnn> Girffe sorry, chat.freenode.net
[18:27] <po-ta-to> hey, how can i make ubuntu look like windoze, im new
[18:27] <Girffe> so when I connect to this chat through freenode, I can do that because whoever hosts this server registered the chatroom with freenode, under the name ubuntu?
[18:27] <MonkeyDust> po-ta-to  that is an insulting question
[18:27] <boldfilter> When can we expect native mtp support
[18:28] <HackerII> running natty here, full blown install, i want a anylizer and found 'jaaa'  do i need to install and configure jack to use this ?, jaaa = jack -and- alsa anylizer ... thanks
[18:28] <po-ta-to> what
[18:28] <escott> MonkeyDust, no its not. if po-ta-to wants a windows like desktop he can use lxde
[18:28] <orated> How can copy all the files of a directory to a new directory using command cp?
[18:28] <po-ta-to> MonkeyDust, i just can't figure out how to use ubuntu
[18:28] <po-ta-to> escott, what is lxde
[18:28] <po-ta-to> is that german
[18:28] <Girffe> orated: cp directory/* newdirectory
[18:28] <po-ta-to> i think ive heard of it
[18:29] <KnightRevenge> po-ta-to, just use windows then, ubuntu isn't that great
[18:29] <MonkeyDust> po-ta-to  the best way to learn ubuntu, is by simply using it and reading about it, like we all did
[18:29] <Girffe> or cp-r will just copy the directory
[18:29] <Girffe> cp -r*
[18:29] <po-ta-to> no i don't like windows
[18:29] <po-ta-to> i keep getting viruses
[18:29] <KnightRevenge> i prefer windows 98 anyway
[18:29] <HackerII> ew
[18:29] <boldfilter> Just lold
[18:29] <escott> po-ta-to, ignore MonkeyDust. he just being a jerk. you probably want http://lubuntu.net/ you can try running "sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop"
[18:29] <HackerII> el oh el
[18:29] <KnightRevenge> what's wrong with 98?
[18:30] <boldfilter> 15 years ago
[18:30] <HackerII> its what i broke my teath on
[18:30] <HackerII> its ok
[18:30] <KnightRevenge> you broke teeth on 98?
[18:30] <escott> po-ta-to, something like lubuntu is in the end a rather superficial change. its a bit like putting a ford logo on a toyota truck. but if it makes you feel more comfortable go for it
[18:30] <po-ta-to> i like dodge
[18:30] <HackerII> i went from using 2kpro to ubuntu linux, cant believe i didnt do it earlier
[18:30] <boldfilter> 98 was sweet when it cam out
[18:31] <escott> orated, cp -r for "recursive" copy
[18:31] <orated> Thanks Girffe. I thought I'll have to use recursive -r flag as well
[18:31] <po-ta-to> http://s3-ec.buzzfed.com/static/imagebuzz/web02/2009/11/4/13/dodge-ramfemale-vagina-12531-1257360089-14.jpg
[18:31] <orated> Ah, great
[18:31] <xangua> po-ta-to: stop that please
[18:31] <po-ta-to> ok
[18:32] <HackerII> anyway, back to my question: running natty here, full blown install, i want a anylizer and found 'jaaa'  do i need to install and configure jack to use this ?, jaaa = jack -and- alsa anylizer ... thanks
[18:32] <po-ta-to> how do i run windows programs on ubuntu
[18:32] <po-ta-to> will i get viruses if i do
[18:32] <alrea7> please im new i have my  wired network i try to conct it with my dreambox  reciver but it fail every time can u help
[18:32] <xangua> !appdb | po-ta-to
[18:32] <HackerII> !wine
[18:32] <jemark> po-ta-to: use wine
[18:32] <po-ta-to> ok ill try that
[18:33] <HackerII> read up on it before you dive into it
[18:33] <jemark> po-ta-to: or run windows in !virtualbox
[18:33] <po-ta-to> can someone help me on the setup guide
[18:33] <po-ta-to> i don't like the command line
[18:34] <po-ta-to> jemark, i hear vmware is better, but i dont have a copy of windoze
[18:34] <HackerII> the command line is scary @ first, but after a couple months using it, you cant live without it
[18:34] <HackerII> its wonderful
[18:34] <po-ta-to> my PC didn't come with a restore disk
[18:34] <HackerII> does it have a restore partition ?
[18:34] <KnightRevenge> why i like 98 so much is that it doesn't slow my computer down. xp and later, and all versions of ubuntu after 6.10 do, even though my computer is a beast
[18:34] <alrea7> i want to conect my dreambox with ubuntu wired conection but i fail what ican do idont want to go back to windows
[18:34] <po-ta-to> HackerII, whats a partition
[18:34] <jemark> po-ta-to: whu do you want to use windows?
[18:35] <xangua> !ot | KnightRevenge
[18:35] <HackerII> !partition
[18:35] <po-ta-to> jemark, i dont
[18:35] <HackerII> ?
[18:35] <po-ta-to> ubottu, it says its not found
[18:36] <KnightRevenge> oh, thats a robot! cool!
[18:36] <xangua> po-ta-to: so...just installed ubuntu and already want to install windows apps¿ why did you install ubuntu on first place¿ to run windows apps and don't use the linux native apps¿
[18:36] <KnightRevenge> hai ubottu!
[18:36] <jemark> KnightRevenge: what are you using now?
[18:36] <po-ta-to> my friend installed ubuntu for me
[18:36] <esing> how do I bound a windows share into ubuntu?
[18:36] <KnightRevenge> windows 98 se
[18:36] <HackerII> hes prolly experimenting
[18:36] <po-ta-to> i asked for a way to get away from viruses, and he installed linux
[18:37] <jemark> po-ta-to: nice, and he also told you how to use irc?
[18:37] <po-ta-to> yeah
[18:37] <KnightRevenge> and expermenting with ubuntu 6
[18:37] <po-ta-to> he told me to go here for support
[18:37] <po-ta-to> its the best way
[18:37] <jemark> po-ta-to: did you also use irc in windows?
[18:37] <jemark> po-ta-to: did you also use irc in windows?
[18:37] <po-ta-to> FUCK ALL OF YOU
[18:37] <po-ta-to> UBUNTU SUCKS
[18:37] <jemark> KnightRevenge: that's a bit outdated
[18:37] <FloodBot1> po-ta-to: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:38] <hrmartin> deitarion: I've been running at 460 Free since being on Lubuntu. Chromium seems to be less hungry than Chrome as well
[18:38] <KnightRevenge> why are all these people leaving and joining to spam!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
[18:38] <hrmartin> deitarion: thanks for the tips
[18:38] <dlentz> !op
[18:38] <Myrtti> dlentz: a bit late?
[18:38] <jrdnn> Girffe, yes
[18:38] <jemark> KnightRevenge: you can ignore the join and part messages in your irc client
[18:39] <KnightRevenge> STOP SPAMMING YOU BASTARDS
[18:39] <Zylum> KnightRevenge, it's only spam if it's more than usual
[18:39] <KnightRevenge> LINUX SUCKS DICK BAI
[18:39] <esing> at least irc can handle spammers, in warcraft 3 there are clan channels down for weaks because there is no anti spam
[18:39] <Myrtti> move on
[18:39] <jemark> esing: indeed
[18:39] <Myrtti> discussing trolls and spam gives them confirmation that their approach is working
[18:39] <dlentz> sorry Myrtti, i was pretty sure they were troling, but i didn't want to be alarmist
[18:40] <Myrtti> back to business folks
[18:40] <jemark> I don't see the join and part messages because I disabled those
[18:40] <esing> hehe I should do that either
[18:40] <jemark> esing: yeah
[18:41] <HackerII> they dont need conformation, they just love the attention, nuff said.
[18:41] <jemark> just a small question, do I appear in the #ubuntu channel or the #ubuntu-unregistered?
[18:41] <HackerII> ?
[18:42] <alrea7> how i can configure my wired network im using ubuntu ????????????????????????????????????
[18:43] <HackerII> yes jemark  your shell is listed
[18:43] <jemark> HackerII: nice
[18:43] <alrea7>  how i can configure my wired network im using ubuntu ???????????????????
[18:43] <funkwarrior> Hello, I just wondering if it's possible to install php4 on a ubuntu 12.04 and how
[18:43] <funkwarrior> it's just a test
[18:43] <HackerII> alrea7:  did you install ubuntu on a hard line ?
[18:43] <erinaceus_> funkwarrior: look for php4 in the repo?
[18:43] <funto_> escott: in case you're still here: my /etc/fstab is here: http://pastebin.com/zRtqqwjw
[18:43] <jemark> alrea7: when you plug your ethernet cable in your nic, you should have an ip address assigned if you have dhcp enabled in your router
[18:44] <funkwarrior> alrea7: what do you mean?
[18:44] <esing> jemark dont understand your quesiton. if you write in #ubuntu you appear too
[18:44] <escott> funto_, when you get the other stuff i can compare
[18:44] <jemark> alrea7: in other words: normally you should not need to do anything besides opening a web brower and surf :)
[18:44] <funto_> parted -l here: http://pastebin.com/GME07w5C
[18:44] <jemark> esing: so, what's the problem?
[18:45] <funkwarrior> erinaceus_: correct me if I'm wrong, but php4 it's not supported since 08/2011 cause vulnerability issues and seems not be in the repos
[18:45] <esing> jemark you asked whether you appear in #ubuntu or #ubuntu-unregistered
[18:45] <funto_> blkid: http://pastebin.com/Dk1TnZKA
[18:45] <esing> jemark but if you write in #ubuntu this implies you also are listed
[18:45] <funto_> escott: and I have nothing for the GRUB files you mentionned as I still use GRUB 1
[18:46] <esing> how do I bound a windows share into ubuntu?
[18:46] <alrea7> i have my dreambox iwant to share it with internet
[18:46] <escott> funto_, then menu.lst
[18:46] <funto_> escott: 1 minute :)
[18:47] <ra4king> HOLY MOTHER OF GOD
[18:47] <ra4king> 1680 PEOPLE?!?!
[18:47] <ra4king> WHAT IN THE ACTUAL F*CK?
[18:47] <Fuchs> ra4king: a bit less caps, maybe :)
[18:47] <ra4king> sorry
[18:47] <Fuchs> also please watch your language.
[18:47] <xangua> !language | ra4king
[18:47] <ra4king> what in the actual mother of god?
[18:47] <dlentz> !op
[18:47] <ra4king> better? :)
[18:47] <ra4king> xangua: btw, i like that piping action with the bot
[18:48] <ra4king> quite origin
[18:48] <ra4king> original*
[18:48] <Myrtti> ra4king: did you have an actual question?
[18:48] <HackerII> slow down son
[18:48] <ra4king> nah I'm just super excited to be here
[18:48] <Datz> what to do if sound suddenly stops working?
[18:48] <Myrtti> ra4king: tune down, keep calm and mind the language
[18:48] <ra4king> Myrtti: i've never cursed in my life sir!
[18:49] <jrdnn> !guidelines > jrdnn
[18:49] <escott> funto_, blkid, fstab, and parted all look good. so the problem is either in menu.lst or something about the new kernel that is causing a race condition in bringing up sda. for someone like yourself still using grub1 i recommend doing the conversion to grub2. you are increasingly in the minority, and im not sure what the proper incantation is to make grub1 do a root-delay, but i do with grub2
[18:49] <funto_> escott: menu.lst is here: http://pastebin.com/vxFRj18B
[18:50] <escott> funto_, i thought you said this happened after an upgrade of some form?
[18:50] <KRomo> what is better than ext4 ?
[18:50] <KRomo> for a booit drive
[18:50] <KRomo> boot
[18:50] <funto_> hmm...ok but I admit upgrading grub makes me worried, I think I need to do some backups first then ^^
[18:50] <KRomo> xfs>
[18:50] <funto_> escott: yes, I just upgraded from one LTS version to the next
[18:50] <funto_> 10.04 to 12.04
[18:50] <dlentz> kromo, it depends on your application, ext4 gives best performance generally
[18:51] <funto_> upgrade-manager -d or something like that ^^
[18:51] <escott> funto_, your menu.lst does not reflect that
[18:51] <funto_> ah?
[18:51] <escott> funto_, it only shows the 10.04 kernels. i suspect you need to do the conversion to grub2
[18:51] <CrazyGangster> KRomo: use xfs just for large files, reiserfs is my advice
[18:51] <Datz> what to do if sound suddenly stops working?
[18:52] <raven> recent update within 12.04 xubuntu = NO network any more on eeepc 1005 ha - how to reparir that
[18:52] <dlentz> raven, wired or wireless?

[18:52] <funto_> escott: menu.lst refers to Ubuntu 10.04 but I think that's just the displayed label
[18:53] <funto_> the kernel version number corresponds to the one uname -a returns
[18:53] <dlentz> raven, do you know what wireless adapter it is? (lspci)
[18:53] <funto_> namely, 2.6.32-34
[18:53] <escott> funto_, no its booting a 2.6 kernel. we are up to 3.2 now
[18:53] <raven> dlentz yes i do atheros ar9285
[18:53] <funto_> hmm...right
[18:54] <funto_> I compared with what uname -a gave me from the rescue console
[18:55] <HackerII> raven:  maybe open network connections and fill it in ?
[18:55] <HackerII> create one
[18:55] <dlentz> raven, is rfkill blocking it (command: rfkill list all)
[18:55] <hackerhacker> opa
[18:55] <xangua> funto_: are you sure the upgrade went ok¿ did ubuntu put to hibernate during the install¿
[18:55] <HackerII> i have a eeepc 1005 it works wonderful for suc a tiny thing
[18:55] <raven> HackerII list is grey no creating possible
[18:56] <HackerII> can you hook to etho ?
[18:56] <funto_> xangua: it went ok, then asked me to reboot
[18:56] <raven> dlentz no nothing blocked
[18:56] <funto_> which was in the normal installation process
[18:56] <jemark> escott: can you open the terminal?
[18:57] <escott> jemark, did you mean to send that to someone else?
[18:58] <raven> HackerII no but could you eyplain why a simple update in ubuntu still is not possible wihtout any accident!!!
[18:58] <dlentz> raven, you might be getting hit by bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/773154
[18:59] <jemark> escott: no, but how an you connect to irc when you hae no connection? are you using a different computer? i could do a remote connetion if you could connect with a ethernet cable to your network port, if you like.
[18:59] <dlentz> rave, see comment 41 for possible workarounds: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/773154/comments/41
[18:59] <HackerII> raven: , the kernel has many device drivers and things updated, to me, it might need to be made to see it all over again, go in your menues and click network connections and see if you can create one
[18:59] <escott> jemark, i dont know who you are or what your problem is
[18:59] <raven> i had NO distri upgrade which still made possible to work with the system because its trash then
[19:00] <raven> HackerII no i cannot as i have said
[19:00] <HackerII> i have the same machine, the AR9285 is not slow, and works wonderful
[19:00] <dlentz> HackerII, are you using G or N mode?
[19:00] <raven> and that solves my problem how?
[19:01] <jemark> escott: what's the issue?
[19:01] <escott> jemark, i dont have one. i think you hae me confused
[19:01] <funto_> raven: never had a clean distrib upgrade of Ubuntu either
[19:01] <raven> what has happened to the friendly and polite relationship in this channel and in the whole community
[19:02] <funto_> that's why I sticked to LTS versions, but as you see I get even more problems now -_-
[19:02] <jemark> escott: where are you confused about? don't you know what is a terminal?
[19:02] <escott> jemark, stop trolling
[19:03] <jemark> escott: i thought you have a wireless issue but it seems you have no issues at all. that's great
[19:03] <Datz> Hi, I have a few problems. My audio stopped working suddenly, also, my mouse doesn't work at boot unless I unplug and plug it back in. Any ideas?
[19:04] <Datz> Are drivers not being loaded for some reason?
[19:04] <jemark> Datz: try another port, or try another mouse
[19:04] <HackerII> huh, maybe i missed it, he upgraded ?, not a clean install ?
[19:05] <Datz> jemark: the mouse is fine once I replug it.
[19:05] <Datz> it's like drivers aren't being loaded. My audio doesn't work either
[19:05] <jemark> Datz: that's nice but did you try what I suggested?
[19:05] <Datz> jemark: for audio?
[19:05] <Datz> I thought you meant usb port for the mouse.
[19:06] <funto_> cat /lsb-release says DISTRIB_RELEASE=10.04
[19:06] <jemark> Datz: indeed
[19:06] <funto_> does that mean that the dist-upgrade went wrong?
[19:07] <Datz> jemark: no change
[19:07] <jemark> Datz: do a lsusb in your terminal
[19:08] <jemark> Datz: are you using a usb hub?

[19:08] <Datz> everything was fine until today, then these problems started occurring
[19:08] <l1nk> hello peeps
[19:08] <Datz> both at once. I assume they must be related
[19:09] <l1nk> can anyone help me out with a few simple questions?
[19:09] <Datz> think there were some updates I installed yesterday too

[19:09] <twig11> I'd appreciate any help I can get troubleshooting some errors that are popping up every time I log in to my Dell Optiplex GX520. It started happening after I made some changes to try to get an ATI Radeon PCI graphics card running. I couldn't get the card to do 3D, so I tried to revert my changes to go back to the onboard Intel graphics. Now, although graphics seem to work okay, I get several dialog windows popping up to tell me Ubuntu has experienced an internal e

[19:12] <arooni-mobile> hi folks kde kalarm doesnt seem to work on ubuntu.  is there another program that can do text based alarms (reminders to do stuff) at certain times?  or is ther ea way to make kde kalarm work on ubuntu 12.04?  (error: ProcessControl: Application 'akonadiserver' returned with exit code 255 (Unknown error))
[19:12] <Datz> jemark: you are incorrect
[19:12] <l1nk> how do I remove the Ubuntu One button from the list when I click on the message icon (upper right)
[19:12] <IdleOne> l1nk: Please keep the language clean
[19:12] <jemark> Datz: ic
[19:13] <Datz> jemark: my suspicion is right: aplay: device_list:252: no soundcards found...
[19:13] <Datz> drivers aren't being loaded
[19:13] <Datz> ... how fun.
[19:14] <Datz> I feel like I'm using linux in 1993  :P
[19:14] <dlentz> Datz, check dmesg to see why
[19:14] <jemark> Datz: which mice did you try? you tried serveral mice in several usb ports right, all have the same issue that you need to unplug them and plug them back in after you booted up?

[19:14] <l1nk> how do I remove the Ubuntu One button from the list when I click on the message icon (upper right)
[19:14] <Ansikt> Hey, I got a computer with a hardware RAID.  Will it be possible to install linux and preserve the current RAID setup?
[19:15] <Datz> dlentz: too much output, what should I filter?
[19:15] <jemark> Ansikt: why not?
[19:15] <l1nk> how do I remove the Ubuntu One button from the list when I click on the message icon (upper right)
[19:15] <dlentz> Datz, you can pastebin it or maybe dmesg | grep -i alsa
[19:15] <Ansikt> jemark:  I've never done it, and so don't know if it can be done.  Is it involved?
[19:15] <jemark> Ansikt: the OS will just see the disk space as once disk.
[19:15] <Ansikt> jemark:  Sexxxy
[19:16] <sirriffsalot> I'm trying to use youtube-dl with the --ectract-audio option but all the videos end up being 10.0MB and non-playable...?
[19:16] <Datz> dlentz: thanks. I'll try alsa first
[19:16] <Datz> dlentz: [    8.349972] init: alsa-restore main process (906) terminated with status 19
[19:16] <escott> Ansikt, real hardware raid or intel bios raid
[19:16] <Datz> wonder what status 19 is
[19:16] <jemark> Ansikt: yes, since the controller created a virtual disk from more physical disks the OS will see the disk space as once disk, you just need to make the partitions and format the disk
[19:17] <l1nk> how do I remove the Ubuntu One button from the list when I click on the message icon (upper right) ?
[19:17] <dlentz> Datz, yeah, that's what i thought. wish i knew the solution :\
[19:17] <l1nk> seriously, nobody knows?
[19:17] <Datz> dlentz: d'oh
[19:17] <Ansikt> escott:  Real hardware raid.  Separate RAID controller and errythang
[19:17] <twig11> l1nk: Not sure if this works on 12.04 but might be worth a try:  http://askubuntu.com/questions/58413/remove-ubuntu-one-from-messaging-indicator Google is your friend. Also, please try not to repeat the question more than once every 5-10 minutes. I'm waiting for an answer myself right now, but these people are volunteers.
[19:17] <Datz> dlentz: last think I did was install audacity... does that mean anything?
[19:17] <dlentz> i've seen a lot of bugs with that dmesg line
[19:18] <dougl> how do I make my kde taskbar at the bottom of my screen automatically hide on my 12.04 install?
[19:18] <Ansikt> jemark:  Badass, will do.  I had an old opensuse livecd that I used to test if the thing turned on, and it wouldn't mount any of the raid disks.
[19:18] <Datz> dlentz: interesting. May my mouse problem be related? It doesn't work until I plug it back in.
[19:18] <Ansikt> But my intention was to use Ubuntu, and the old livecd was definitely an OLD livecd.
[19:19] <alrea7> any one use dreambox with ubuntu ???????????????
[19:19] <wylde_> dougl: right click on the bar, Panel Options >> Panel Settings >> More Settings >> Auto-Hide
[19:19] <jemark> Ansikt: you would need to partition and format it first. So, live CD won't do, just install the OS and during the OS install you can partition and it will format the disk.
[19:19] <dlentz> Datz i don't think audacity has anything to do with it, it has something to do with your saved alsa settings not beingrestored
[19:20] <dougl> wylde, thanks - will give it a try
[19:20] <Datz> dlentz: I see. Is there a way to revert back to default? ALso, why does alsamixer not run, any ideas?>
[19:20] <Ansikt> jemark:  So, I can't see the data on the disks?  I have to reformat them?  Bummer.  Why doesn't the liveCD see RAID?
[19:20] <dlentz> alsamixer won't run because of that bug
[19:20] <escott> Ansikt, did you load the required kernel module for the card
[19:20] <Datz> dlentz: I see..
[19:21] <jemark> Ansikt: let me see
[19:21] <escott> Ansikt, its entirely possible that the livecd just doesnt have the raid controller modules, in which case you should use the !alternate cd which should have all kernel modules
[19:21] <Datz> dlentz: I saved my home directory when I upgraded. might an old alsa directory be the problem?
[19:21] <dlentz> bbl
[19:22] <Datz> kk
[19:22] <arooni-mobile> i recently had a hard drive crash and i only had a ntfs hard drive to do the backup on.  so i think all of my permissions for .* directories are 700... i have already experienced some apps behaving funkily.  in any case, is there any harm in doing a+r, a+w .. for all the .directories in my /home?
[19:22] <escott> arooni-mobile, yes
[19:22] <dlentz> sorry Datz , real life needs attending :\
[19:22] <sirriffsalot> I'm trying to use youtube-dl with the --ectract-audio option but all the videos end up being 10.0MB and non-playable...?
[19:22] <arooni-mobile> escott, theres harm in doing that?
[19:23] <escott> arooni-mobile, yes. various applications require that files only be readable by that user. you won't be able to use your ssh private key if it is 777
[19:23] <jemark> escott: alternate is not a live cd
[19:23] <arooni-mobile> escott, ok with the exception of ssh
[19:23] <escott> jemark, im aware of that
[19:23] <jemark> escott: so, you can't mount it via the alterate cd, right?
[19:24] <escott> arooni-mobile, anything else like ssh that would have private data that should not be readable by others might complain (or it might not check)
[19:24] <arooni-mobile> escott, got it ; thanks
[19:24] <HackerII> brb
[19:24] <escott> jemark, he might be able to mount by going to tty1
[19:24] <Ansikt> escott:  No, I did not.  How would I know which modules my controller needs?
[19:25] <mongy> sirriffsalot,  what is the exact command you are using.
[19:25] <escott> Ansikt, what kind of controller is it?
[19:26] <sirriffsalot> mongy: youtube-dl -t --extract-audio (url)
[19:26] <mongy> sirriffsalot,  try youtube-dl --extract-audio --audio-format=mp3 -t (url)
[19:27] <sirriffsalot> mongo: sorry disconnected. after it gets to 100% nothing happens..
[19:28] <sirriffsalot> mongo: if I press enter it says it's done etc... but always the same problem
[19:28] <mongy> sirriffsalot,  try youtube-dl --extract-audio --audio-format=mp3 -t (url)
[19:28] <sirriffsalot> mongo: just noticed that this same problem happens if I simply do youtube-dl (url) =(
[19:28] <mongy> sirriffsalot, I think it needs ffmpeg installed also, if that might be an issue.
[19:28] <sirriffsalot> mongo: I have that=(
[19:28] <sirriffsalot> Or..
[19:28] <sirriffsalot> Haang on
[19:28] <Ansikt> escott:  Dunno.  Any commands I could use to find out?
[19:29] <Kentrel> Hey, my sound in Ubuntu definitely sounds more muffled than it does when I boot into Windows. Is this a mixer problem or something else
[19:29] <escott> Ansikt, lspci
[19:29] <mongy> sirriffsalot, do you have the latest version ?
[19:29] <sirriffsalot> mongo: yes, I do have it.. it came with installing youtube-dl
[19:29] <sirriffsalot> mongo: 4:0.8.1 is what I have...
[19:29] <mongy> sirriffsalot, latest version of youtube-dl?
[19:30] <sirriffsalot> mongo: when I type youtube-dl in synaptic only one option appears so...
[19:30] <sirriffsalot> mongo: 2012.02.27-1 is the one I have
[19:30] <mongy> sirriffsalot,   ok good.
[19:30] <sirriffsalot> mongo: no, this is getting worse, how can this be good?:D
[19:30] <v1adimir> Kentrel: might depend on your motherboard, if it's the integrated sound; so drivers.. but volume for me is lower - sound cleaner if that helps
[19:30] <mongy> sirriffsalot, want me to try with your url ?
[19:30] <jemark> escott: i am also wondering which hw raid controller Ansikt has in a pc...
[19:31] <sirriffsalot> mongo: sure, hang on
[19:31] <Kentrel> vladimir, but I reboot into Windows with the same motherboard?
[19:31] <docmur> Does any one here have a good guide to set up bridge networking on a VM using KVM, on Ubuntu 12.04.  The ubuntu guide is horrible, I followed it didn't work  at all
[19:32] <sirriffsalot> mongo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMTtPhQUSgM
[19:32] <v1adimir> Kentrel: it's different drivers.. in windows, they even come on the CD from the mobo manufacturer.. in linux they're 'some' drivers for that chip for example; might not be your-model-specific even
[19:32] <sirriffsalot> mongo: for the record it's the piano-business in the middle that I am after lol
[19:32] <mongy> Destination: The Best Of Mr. Bean.flv  60mb
[19:32] <komeil> hi, how can i install ubuntu 12.04 inside windows 7
[19:32] <komeil> ?
[19:33] <esing> hello
[19:33] <v1adimir> komeil: using a VM software, but it kinda defeats the prupose of linux
[19:33] <esing> what is the current ubuntu desktop?
[19:33] <esing> LightDM ß
[19:33] <esing> ?
[19:33] <esing> i just updated to 12.04 and I can chose between LightDM and LXDM
[19:33] <esing> what should i chose
[19:34] <v1adimir> komeil: what i did was free up some space at the end of my hdd and used the livecd to dual boot xubuntu
[19:34] <sirriffsalot> mongo: disconnected again..:P
[19:34] <mongy> sirriffsalot, I see your problem then...
[19:34] <Ansikt> haha, escott: lspci: command not found D;
[19:34] <komeil> v1adimir: i use vrtual clonedrive! but i cant find any button for install inside windows
[19:34] <jemark> Ansikt: are you still here?
[19:34] <mongy> sirriffsalot, you aren't getting the whole file if you get 10mb.  The one I'm getting is 60mb
[19:34] <sirriffsalot> mongo: obviously..:/
[19:35] <sirriffsalot> But it says 100% and I ented and it says done:P
[19:35] <v1adimir> komeil: it's a virtual machine, like http://www.vmware.com/products/player
[19:35] <Ansikt> jemark, yeah, just also talking to people IRL.  No lspci, it seems.
[19:35] <sirriffsalot> mongo: and I press enter*
[19:35] <jemark> Ansikt: where did you type that command?
[19:35] <escott> Ansikt, you are in the livecd?
[19:35] <Dr_Willis> esing:  normal ubuntu defaults to lightdm
[19:35] <esing> Dr_Willis I thought unity
[19:36] <Dr_Willis> esing:  you are confus3eing the LOGIN manager with the 'Desktop'
[19:36] <Dr_Willis> !info lightdm
[19:36] <Dr_Willis> !info lxdm
[19:36] <esing> !info LXDE
[19:36] <mongy> sirriffsalot, while downloading what does it say progress is.   xx of xx mb?
[19:36] <sirriffsalot> mongo: hmm.. when I simply try to extract video now it works, but only if I press enter without being told to etc...
[19:36] <esing> Dr_willis oh I see !!!
[19:36] <esing> Dr_willis so i better chose LightDM
[19:36] <sirriffsalot> mongo: the progress says the usual... 100% etc..
[19:36] <esing> because LXDM is not much devloped right !! ??
[19:37] <Dr_Willis> esing:  flip a coin.. i doubt if it matters much
[19:37] <esing> heh :)
[19:37] <Dr_Willis> its trivial to switch
[19:37] <Dr_Willis> sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm
[19:37] <esing> good to know
[19:37] <esing> thanks
[19:38] <Mr_MeatWad> anyone here know of a good ip blocker like peerblock for windows?
[19:38] <Dr_Willis> Mr_MeatWad:  you are wanting to blovk ips for what reason?
[19:39] <esing> i just read unity will be replaced again in 12.10 is that true ?
[19:39] <cscsaba> hello, i made some aliases in .bashrc and they dont work, why ?
[19:39] <cscsaba> how can i activate them ?
[19:39] <jemark> esing: replaced by what?
[19:39] <Dr_Willis> esing:  i think you miss-read
[19:39] <hash> ok so im getting a disk storage warning andf the majority of files that are costing space under my log folder like 200GB of .log and .gz files am i able to delete any/some of them to free up space
[19:39] <esing> I read that unity-2D will be removed
[19:39] <Dr_Willis> cscsaba:  log oyut/back in or 'source .bashrc' to load them
[19:39] <escott>  cscsaba, what are the aliases, and how are you starting bash (normal terminal window?)
[19:39] <mongy> sirriffsalot, I'm stumped then, it works fine here.
[19:39] <Ansikt> jemark, escott:  Oh, I'm dumb.  lspci wasn't in my PATH.  The controllers are a Promise Technology PDC20378, and a VIA Technology VIA VT6420
[19:39] <Mr_MeatWad> for many reasons
[19:40] <Dr_Willis> esing:  unity-2d is going to be replaced by unity/compiz... so is that really unity getting removed. :)
[19:40] <LjL> esing: that's a bit different from Unity being replaced
[19:40] <cscsaba> escott: thanks
[19:40] <Mr_MeatWad> but i was just curious if anyone knew one that worked weel
[19:40] <esing> oh i see :D
[19:40] <Mr_MeatWad> well*
[19:40] <esing> thanks :D
[19:40] <Dr_Willis> Mr_MeatWad:  totally depends on what you are wanting to secure.. people hammering your ssh server = fail2ban or other tools can auto blacklist ips.
[19:41] <esing> ok leaving this PC work, installing 12.04 takes 2-3 hours gosh ^^
[19:41] <cscsaba> escott: they are fine :)
[19:41] <cscsaba> escott: really thanks
[19:41] <reisio> a good password and keys should keep ssh secure
[19:41] <wylde_> Mr_MeatWad: you can create ufw rules to prevent outgoing connections to specific ips
[19:41] <escott> Ansikt, thats sata_promise the via is just your normal southbridge
[19:41] <reisio> keeping it from being hammered is another thing
[19:41] <jemark> Ansikt: it's a Sata raid contoller as far I can read that on in the internet
[19:41] <BobMarley> hi, is here somebody using git? i have changed some files and i dont know hot to update them
[19:42] <reisio> BobMarley: that pretty much sums up git
[19:42] <reisio> -> #git
[19:43] <sirriffsalot> mongo: so am I, hang on
[19:43] <msch> do i need to do anything to register a file in /etc/init with upstart? or will it be picked up automatically? (and started at the next runlevel change if i have specified that)
[19:43] <Ansikt> jemark, escott:  Seems to be using sata_via and sata_promise, as well as sata1
[19:43] <escott> Ansikt, these say both are fakeraid of some kind but it seems to think the promise is a bit better than most fakeraid http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Hardware/sata.html
[19:43] <sirriffsalot> mongo: does this exact command work? youtube-dl --extract-audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMTtPhQUSgM&feature=related
[19:44] <aakskalalaala> hi guys, i'm going to buy a laptop with this ATI video adapter- Radeon HD 6370M.  will all drivers work fine and XVBA to accelerate HD playback the same as my VDPAU does on my curent nvidia laptop? thanks!
[19:44] <mongy> sirriffsalot, trying it now
[19:44] <sirriffsalot> mongo: appreciate it:)
[19:44] <mongy> sirriffsalot, bit slow my end.
[19:45] <BobMarley> reisio, i am not able to send to channel #git ! i dont know why
[19:45] <reisio> BobMarley: pretty liberal modes in that channel, you're probably banned
[19:46] <escott> Ansikt, what i'm seeing would suggest you are better off just using these as sata controllers and using mdadm instead of trying to use their raid functionality
[19:46] <sirriffsalot> mongo: youtube-dl --extract-audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMTtPhQUSgM this one worked, gonna try with the extract audio..
[19:46] <sirriffsalot> mongo: scratch that lol
[19:46] <damms005> Pls help with find command
[19:46] <sirriffsalot> mongo: already did that
[19:46] <BobMarley> reisio, NO, that is the 1 time that i get there
[19:46] <DJones> !register | BobMarley Some channels require you to register your nick with freenode before you can talk in  them
[19:46] <sirriffsalot> mongo: lemme know what is wrong with what I tried earlier if you spot it?:)
[19:46] <mongy> sirriffsalot,  it's mongy btw.
[19:46] <damms005> I want to find files with size less than 2kb
[19:47] <reisio> BobMarley: still the most likely reason
[19:47] <Jonii> Hey, for some reason gnome-power-statistics doesn't close properly, causing all new attempts to view state of my laptop battery to fail(clicking battery icon and that "battery" text results in blank window being opened)
[19:47] <Jonii> Is there anything I could do about that?
[19:47] <Dr_Willis> http://www.unix.com/unix-advanced-expert-users/12532-command-list-files-less-than-equal-2k-size.html
[19:47] <Dr_Willis> google is so handy.. ;)
[19:48] <jemark> Ansikt: there is software in the controller... better to use the software raid in linux than a software raid controller because if the controller breaks, you can't recover the data easily.
[19:48] <Jonii> I can manually end that process, and then view battery state, but come on, it's a nasty bug no matter how you look at it
[19:49] <ClientAlive> Can anyone help? I'm having a problem verifying that nfs server is set up and running. When I do a "rpcinfo quota" I get the error printed to the screen: "rpcinfo: can't contact rpcbind: RPC: (unknown error code)"  I verify that it is indeed installed with a "install rpcbind" and get a line in the output "rpcbind is already the newest version."  I'm running ubuntu 12.04 server and going off of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNF
[19:49] <ClientAlive> SHowTo#NFS_Server   suplemented with  http://nfs.sourceforge.net/nfs-howto/ar01s03.html  to perform the install/ setup. Can anyone please help me resolve this issue?
[19:49] <escott> Ansikt, not to mention the risks inherent in loading a binary blob and letting it manage your crucial data
[19:49] <reisio> BobMarley: but I don't see you on the ban list, either
[19:49] <jemark> escott: indeed
[19:49] <twig11> I'd appreciate some help with troubleshooting some weird errors I get at login. I think it's due to some changes I made  to graphics drivers trying to upgrade my intel onboard graphics to an ATI Radeon PCI card. Couldn't get the card to do 3D and I don't think I successfully reverted all my changes when I switched back to the onboard video. Xorg.0.log is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032321/
[19:50] <jemark> Ansikt: for a hardware raid controller you would pay a bit more...
[19:50] <BobMarley> reisio, yes i had to go here http://jk.gs/git/bot/voice.php and make some voice
[19:50] <damms005> I use find ./ -size -10k -exec ls -lh '{}' \; to get the output before rm them but I see files even in 153K
[19:50] <reisio> BobMarley: weird, maybe it has something to do with new users
[19:50] <BobMarley> reisio, now i can talk there
[19:51] <reisio> BobMarley: weird, maybe it has something to do with new users
[19:51] <damms005> Dr_Willis: I use find ./ -size -10k -exec ls -lh '{}' \; to get the output before rm them but I see files even of 153K listed by ls
[19:51] <sirriffsalot> mongy: anything?:P Is highest quality by default?
[19:52] <jemark> Ansikt: when I googled, I saw a thread in a gentoo forum from 2005
[19:52] <mongy> sirriffsalot, '-b' is default afaik
[19:52] <Rickardo_> I got "server.csr: No such file or directory" when  openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in server.csr -signkey server.key -out server.crt
[19:52] <mongy> sirriffsalot, so, yes.  still downloading...
[19:52] <sirriffsalot> mongy: issuing -b you mean?
[19:52] <damms005> Dr_Willis: I use find ./ -size -10 -exec ls -lh '{}' \; to get the output before rm them but I see files even of 153K listed by ls
[19:52] <sirriffsalot> mongy: hmm, strange.. what could that me?
[19:52] <ClientAlive> I should clarify: I have an alias set up so when I do "install..." it is really "sudo install..." same thing, sorry
[19:52] <mongy> sirriffsalot, ok with your command it's using ffmpeg to convert to aac
[19:52] <Datz> dlentz: I think I found the root of the problem. I have a SD card reader. A mico to regular SD card was inserted without an acutall card. Post was taking forever trying to boot. I think it was creating problems with loading drivers too for some reason. Mouse back working, as well as sound.
[19:53] <sirriffsalot> mongy: TO aac?
[19:53] <sirriffsalot> mongy: it worked now and it is aac
[19:53] <damms005> Dr_Willis: I use find ./ -size -10 -exec ls -lh '{}' \; to get the output before rm them but I see files even of 153K listed by ls...I thought the -10 arguement for -size should match files less than 5kb
[19:53] <wylde_> !patience | damms005
[19:53] <mongy> sirriffsalot, stopped at 10mb... no output in terminal asking me anything either.
[19:54] <sirriffsalot> mongy: yeah with me too. but with the latest one it worked, but the quality is horrible, so trying with "-b" cheers:)
[19:54] <Dr_Willis> damms005:  this seems to work for me -->  find ./ -size -4k -exec ls -lh '{}' \;
[19:54] <sirriffsalot> mongy: but ffmpeg can convert aac, so why does that matter?
[19:54] <Datz> Dr_Willis: hi. Glad to see you're still around. :)
[19:54] <mongy> sirriffsalot, ok so that file wont play properly..  use the mp3 option
[19:54] <dougl> wylde, thanks - will give it a try => works like a charm...
[19:54] <damms005> okay wylde_ . thanks
[19:54] <escott> damms005, i think you need a k
[19:54] <Dr_Willis> Datz:  for about 2 more min.. its bed time.
[19:54] <Datz> Dr_Willis: I mean, after all these years. But good night bud. ;)
[19:54] <wylde_> dougl:  good stuff :)
[19:54] <Dr_Willis> Datz:  ;P
[19:55] <mongy> he disconnected again, arghhh
[19:55] <Dr_Willis> You kids get off my lawn!
[19:55] <Datz> lol
[19:55] <dougl> anyone know how to make the taskbar unhide while running recordmydesktop... is there a hotkey or something?
[19:55] <MonkeyDust> dougl  use MyUnity
[19:55] <damms005> Dr_Willis: Does that match files less than 2kb or 4kb? Someone said I will use a "c " for -size. I am confused and none of these seem to work for me
[19:55] <Dr_Willis> dougl:  list of shortcuts can be seen if you hold the super key. :)
[19:55] <twig11> I'd appreciate some help with troubleshooting some weird errors I get at login. I think it's due to some changes I made  to graphics drivers trying to upgrade my intel onboard graphics to an ATI Radeon PCI card. Couldn't get the card to do 3D and I don't think I successfully reverted all my changes when I switched back to the onboard video. Xorg.0.log is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032321/
[19:56] <Dr_Willis> damms005:  no idea. its just showing a bunch of tiny files. I dont see any more then 4k
[19:56] <wylde_> damms005: I may be mistaken but I thought c was for bytes
[19:56] <Dr_Willis> must be less then 4k - i see a 3k file...
[19:56] <damms005> weird. why me?
[19:57] <Dr_Willis> Night all...
[19:57] <dougl> MonkeyDust, Dr_Willis - err, using kde and kde taskbar.... what is the 'super key'
[19:57] <mongy> sirriffsalot,  as for -b it's using it by default, and it;s downloading an flv as that is the best available.  the aac did play, it was my fault, low volume.  its a very quiet audio file.
[19:57] <wolfgang> deitarion: Hay my comp froze you there?
[19:57] <Dr_Willis> dougl:  you could have mentioned kde first. :) super key -= windows key. shows unity shortcuts
[19:57] <Polah> dougl, super is usually the Windows key
[19:57] <wylde_> dougl: super is aka windows key
[19:57] <deitarion> wolfgang: Yeah.
[19:57] <dougl> LOL - hey thanks guys
[19:57] <wolfgang> It froze
[19:57] <wolfgang> forry
[19:57] <Dr_Willis> If you have a TUX logo on your windows key.. then its a "Super Duper" key. :P
[19:57] <wolfgang> sorry
[19:57] <sirriffsalot> mongy: alright, hehe.. cheers:) How do I list all the available formats again?
[19:57] <deitarion> wolfgang: No problem.
[19:58] <Dr_Willis> Night
[19:58] <mongy> sirriffsalot, man youtube-dl
[19:58] <sirriffsalot> mongy: haven't fount it yet, but ok:)
[19:58] <aakskalalaala> hi, i'm going to buy a laptop with this ATI video adapter- Radeon HD 6370M.  will all drivers work fine and XVBA to accelerate HD playback the same as my VDPAU does on my curent nvidia laptop? thanks!
[19:59] <mongy> sirriffsalot, "By default, youtube-dl will download the best available format"
[20:00] <ClientAlive> the only relevant info I see by googling: "rpcinfo: can't contact rpcbind: RPC: (unknown error code)" is involving suse not ubuntu. There are no results displayed from googlubuntu.com so I'm stuck on this one
[20:00] <sirriffsalot> mongy: yeah, want the lowest, hehe;D
[20:00] <mongy> sirriffsalot, -f then
[20:01] <New0> hi everyone. when i click Try Ubuntu instead of the installation. where do i have usb-creator? or do i have to install it. (i know gParted is there) but not usb-creator. ntx
[20:01] <New0> *tnx
[20:01] <MonkeyDust> New0  what do you want to do or accomplish?
[20:02] <reisio> aakskalalaala: which laptop?
[20:02] <New0> MonkeyDust, i want to install ubuntu via ubs (4gb)
[20:02] <New0> MonkeyDust, faster than a CD
[20:02] <aakskalalaala> reisio Lenovo IdeaPad G770A
[20:02] <linuxGuy> just had to install this a Panara Bread.....
[20:02] <linuxGuy> at
[20:03] <MonkeyDust> New0  fair enough, but are you now in ubuntu?
[20:03] <hash> so anyone know how i can figure out what files i can delete from my /var/log folder
[20:04] <escott> hash, whatever you feel like really. but logrotate should be removing them anyways
[20:04] <New0> in Win 7 (laptop) but the Q is about a PC running now an ubuntu (Try Ubuntu mode)
[20:04] <hash> interesting because i have 200 gigs worth of files in there
[20:05] <tpw_rules> so i'm trying to set up an openvpn server and it's whining that it can't find openssl.cnf
[20:05] <linuxGuy> 200GB.....wow
[20:05] <MonkeyDust> New0  use a usb creator for windows
[20:05] <reisio> aakskalalaala: seems to me exclusively offered in the east, so there isn't a whole lot of online chatter about it
[20:05] <escott> hash, logrotate rotates based on age, so if you have something like a bug that is causing frequent messages to be sent to the logs then your logs can blow up in size
[20:06] <hash> ah
[20:06] <linuxGuy> that cant be just logs
[20:06] <Rickardo_> I got "server.csr: No such file or directory" when  openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in server.csr -signkey server.key -out server.crt
[20:06] <aakskalalaala> reisio maybe Lenovo IdeaPad G770
[20:06] <hash> theres also a lot of .gz files in there
[20:06] <ex0a> hash you can delete any of them, but some of them need to be touch'd, chown'd, and chmod'd properly or applications who can't handle it might freak out
[20:06] <ex0a> hash: all the .gz are just compressed backups
[20:06] <ex0a> old logs
[20:06] <linuxGuy> ex0a = 100% correct
[20:07] <aakskalalaala> reisio the A or other letters show region probably
[20:07] <aakskalalaala> but nvm
[20:07] <ex0a> hash: ls -l and see which of them are taking up the most space
[20:07] <New0> MonkeyDust, tried that. and also i formated with FAT32. and use usb-creator and unetbootin. but didn't work. (when is was init all the text was in red, and at the end there was a line: End Trace)
[20:07] <reisio> aakskalalaala: if it doesn't have switchable graphics, my guess is it's supported, but amd.com would be the best place to find out
[20:09] <schnuffle> hash: the rotate option tells how many logs are kept
[20:09] <coder2> how to improve my system performance? i have dell studio 1558 laptop with dual installation with windows7, it eats very much power too.
[20:09] <escott> !info powertop | coder2
[20:10] <schnuffle> coder2:  move to a more light weigt GUI system like LXDE,XFCE .....
[20:10] <MonkeyDust> coder2  no visual effects -- add vm.swappiness=10 in /etc/sysctl.conf -- install preload
[20:11] <coder2> schnuffle, but will that give enough functionality?like i have now
[20:11] <hash> ex0a, http://pastebin.com/hrFc6gGX
[20:12] <schnuffle> coder2:  All of them are full Desktop environements, of course it depends on what you need from what you have right now
[20:12] <schnuffle> coder2: your kernel log is exploding check if there're errors
[20:12] <hash> theres a couple files with insane sizes
[20:13] <aakskalalaala> reisio it has switchable graphics with a inter 3000. i've just checked. so all switchable graphics aren't compatible ?
[20:13] <damms005> Check this find command: I don't know why the -size option not working. Notice the file the cursor is on:  http://imagebin.org/215777
[20:13] <hash> 2 sys logs and a kern log
[20:13] <damms005> MonkeyDust:  Check this find command: I don't know why the -size option not working. Notice the file the cursor is on:  http://imagebin.org/215777
[20:13] <schnuffle> damms005:  -size 4k without - i think
[20:14] <coder2> schnuffle, how to check?
[20:14] <escott> damms005, i think you are confused because you are including directory entries. "." itself will be <4k so ls -lh "." is called
[20:14] <MonkeyDust> hash  type this to see them all    find / -size +1G -exec file \;
[20:14] <MonkeyDust> damms005  no quotes around the {}
[20:15] <damms005> schnuffle: what do you mean without -. is size not an arguement to find?
[20:15] <escott> hash, pick any random line of kern.log and it will tell you what your problem is
[20:15] <schnuffle> hash: to see what is just happening sudo tailf -f /var/log/kern.log
[20:15] <guntbert> hash: you can run logrotate -f    immediately, but of course you should look into the logs what made them so big in such a short time
[20:15] <schnuffle> oops tail -f /var/log/kern.log
[20:15] <damms005> MonkeyDust: if I dont put it, I get error "no argument for -exec"
[20:17] <MonkeyDust> damms005  try ls -l so without the h
[20:18] <escott> MonkeyDust, thats not going to change anything damms005 needs find . -type f -and -size -4k -exec ...
[20:19] <odradek> how to change  text color in firefox in xubuntu I wonder ?
[20:19] <MonkeyDust> damms005  escott this works for me     find / -size +1G -exec file {} \; 2>/dev/null
[20:20] <escott> MonkeyDust, but damms005 is using ls and so he is calling (without realizing it) 'ls -ld "." ' which then dumps out the full directory contents
[20:20] <schnuffle> MonkeyDust: but you have the folders that way as well so you need -type f
[20:21] <MonkeyDust> confusion!
[20:21] <schnuffle> :)
[20:21] <escott> MonkeyDust, when you use file it says ".: directory" which is less confusing and spammy than ls -lh .'
[20:21] <MadRabbit320> hi all, if I dl ubuntu via bittorrent, are both the cd AND dvd iso's LIVE or is the dvd "INSTALL ONLY"?  thanks!
[20:22] <MonkeyDust> MadRabbit320  desktop is live, server is installer
[20:22] <MadRabbit320> so the dvd is "INSTALL ONLY"?
[20:23] <schnuffle> MadRabbit320:  CD/DVD DEsktop ist live, Server CD/DVD is install
[20:23] <MadRabbit320> not interested in the server distro...
[20:24] <schnuffle> MadRabbit320: So both are live tells us MonkeyDust
[20:24] <MadRabbit320> Alrighty then, time to dl!!! THANKS for a prompt answer!
[20:26] <MadRabbit320> enjoy the rest of your time here! I'm going back to my home planet in the morning...
[20:27] <coder2> i have AMD 1gb Graphics card, can i simulate better picture quality?
[20:27] <schnuffle> coder2: what does that mean?

[20:28] <coder2> schnuffle, higher monitor resolution
[20:29] <xGrub11> somebody tell where is addreess to download "dpkg" for xubuntu 11.10
[20:29] <coder2> jarray52, yes
[20:29] <xGrub11> thanks before

[20:30] <linuxGuy> anyone know the command to check hard drive partion sizes and mounts i forget
[20:30] <coder2> jarray52, ??
[20:30] <jarray52> coder2: pastebin the output of that command.
[20:30] <SwashBuckla> linuxGuy: mount to check mounts
[20:30] <jarray52> coder2: Use dpaste.com
[20:30] <SwashBuckla> linuxGuy: df to check sizes
[20:30] <kyle__> Two things changed at once: 11.10->12.04 and unity2d->unity, and now my system is unstable.  Has anyone else experienced this?  It's a core-i5 lenovo with a run-of-the-mill intel chipset integrated everything.
[20:30] <linuxGuy> thought it wasBf -H
[20:30] <schnuffle> linuxGuy: it's df -h
[20:30] <kyle__> Unstalbe with 12.04+Unity on i5 laptop, anyone else?
[20:31] <linuxGuy> ahhh df not bf got it....ty

[20:32] <client_> ok
[20:32] <jarray52> coder2: Do you have two graphics cards on your laptop?
[20:33] <client_> il give a try
[20:33] <client_> thank you
[20:33] <guntbert> !google | SwashBuckla

[20:34] <jarray52> coder2: Actually, just dpaste lsmod
[20:34] <schnuffle> client_:  you'll need to configure the linux NIC manually as long as you don't have a DHCP server on your windows machine
[20:34] <guntbert> SwashBuckla: to get the grub menu press (left) shift-key after booting until you get the menu
[20:34] <SwashBuckla> guntbert: this is not enabled in my GRUB2 config
[20:35] <coder2> jarray52, http://dpaste.com/hold/757014/
[20:35] <guntbert> SwashBuckla: with <shift> pressed you will get it
[20:35] <SwashBuckla> hmm
[20:36] <SwashBuckla> I have tried this
[20:36] <guntbert> !enter | SwashBuckla
[20:36] <SwashBuckla> guntbert: I thought you needed to explicitly enable Shift in the config to display GRUB2 menu
[20:36] <mikkelb> At my homedir backup script at https://gist.github.com/2897952 - how do I skip the creation of the tarball if none of the folder's content has changed? And then move all old tarballs (which the script will then have made newer versions of) to folder "_purged" (create if doesn't exist).
[20:37] <mikkelb> I can pay for help
[20:37] <guntbert> SwashBuckla: no, that is not necessary
[20:37] <jarray52> coder2: dmesg | grep tainted

[20:38] <mikkelb> guntbert: yeah im just saying
[20:38] <WG_> Hello

[20:38] <mikkelb> for the trouble
[20:38] <schnuffle> mikkelb: changed in related to which state
[20:38] <jemark> mikkelb: we are volunteers
[20:38] <mikkelb> schnuffle: sorry?
[20:39] <schnuffle> mikkelb: you need to check against something to realize that there's change or not
[20:39] <coder2> jarray52, 1366x768
[20:40] <jarray52> coder2: Does the resolution go higher in windows?
[20:40] <nut> hi yall
[20:40] <mikkelb> schnuffle: yeah i get that much
[20:40] <coder2> yes it looks more soften
[20:41] <jarray52> coder2: Do you have exact numbers?
[20:41] <nut> why is it such a pain to get desktop icons to the desktop??
[20:41] <coder2> nope
[20:41] <coder2> jarray52, sorry
[20:42] <jarray52> coder2: Have you tried opening AMD catalyst and adjusting screen resolution?
[20:42] <schnuffle> mikkelb: so  you want to know if the folders you want to backup have changed taking the last archive as reference?

[20:50] <nut> i have that problem when i boot xubuntu

[20:50] <schnuffle> tompson:  because unable to resolve host fw-distrito tells me that there's a DNS resolution problem

[20:51] <jarray52> I'm trying to get my ati radeon graphics card(HD 6400M Series) working. I have a dual Intel/Radeon card. I'm using a kernel with switcheroo. I also blacklisted the intel drivers and completely removed the proprietary fglrx drivers. However, when the system boots with the radeon driver, I'm in low resolution mode. Any suggestions?
[20:52] <nut> swashbuckla  u get the problem fixed with that cause i have it too
[20:52] <guntbert> SwashBuckla: strange - (and please don't mock others :-) - did you keep shift pressed even after "grub loading..." ?
[20:52] <schnuffle> mikkelb: aah, at least a hint :) As its stupid to check against the archive use inotify to monitor your folders. Then at backup time you know if there was change or not
[20:54] <guntbert> cowlicks: do you mean here in the channel or on your command line?
[20:54] <mikkelb> schnuffle: maybe yeah thanks man

[21:03] <docmur> Does anyone see the issue?
[21:05] <Relondo> Does Unity have Linux support?
[21:05] <kyle__> O_o
[21:06] <kyle__> Relondo: No, it only runs in NetBSD </sarcasm>
[21:06] <kyle__> Relondo: What do you actually want to know?  Unity only runs on ubuntu's distro of linux right now.  What are you asking?
[21:07] <Relondo> kyle_: If I can install a Unity plugin to play games in browser.
[21:07] <Relondo> kyle_: And what IS NetBSD? I've heard of it.
[21:08] <kyle__> Relondo: Unity is the name of a desktop environment used in ubuntu.  It has nothing to do with browser games.  Maybe you're confused, or maybe there's something else with the name unity.
[21:08] <tompson> Can someone help me please
[21:08] <kyle__> Relondo: NetBSD is a free (as in speech) Unix like operating system that's very very portable.  More bare bones than ubuntu for sure.
[21:08] <Relondo> kyle_: NetBSD, got it. But there is most definitely a Unity game engine.
[21:09] <tompson> Can someone help me please
[21:09] <randomusername> the only thing that annoys me about ubuntu right now is that I can't third mouse button klick and get the ability to scroll by merely moving the mouse
[21:09] <kyle__> Relondo: Ah.  I'm pretty sure the game engine has nothing to do with the unity desktop environment.
[21:10] <randomusername> and that doubleclicking in the downloads-window of firefox doesn't open the files nor folders
[21:10] <Relondo> kyle_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unity_%28game_engine%29
[21:10] <randomusername> are there any fixes to these small problems?
[21:10] <randomusername> minor annoyances, but it'd be the icing on the cake to fix
[21:10] <Relondo> kyle_: Got it. Next question: I can't seem to access the greater whole of my windows file system from inside my Wubi install.
[21:10] <amsigen> hi all
[21:11] <zoe> how can i boot with option "pci=assign-busses"?
[21:11] <Relondo> kyle_: When I booted from a USB drive, I could, but now that I've actually installed, I can'te.
[21:11] <Relondo> kyle_: *can't.
[21:12] <DJones> Relondo: http://gamedev.stackexchange.com/questions/26140/unity-3d-engine-for-ubuntu This may help, seems to suggest that older versions of Unity3D might work via wine
[21:12] <Relondo> DJones: Thanks, I'll check it out.
[21:12] <kyle__> Relondo: DJones: THat explains much of the confusion :)
[21:13] <falstaff> My wifi card detects the networks but it will not connect --
[21:13] <An_Ony_Moose> why does deja-dup-monitor suck up so much ram?
[21:13] <Relondo> kyle_: So, any idea about the access restrictions on my filesystem?
[21:14] <cromag> how do i see from where a package is installed from ? - ie. it's both in the standard repos, and i've added a PPA for it as well.
[21:15] <khmerog> wasssssssssssssssup
[21:16] <keymaker> Hey
[21:16] <amsigen> heyhey!!!
[21:16] <amsigen> WASSSSSSUUUPPPP
[21:16] <keymaker> alguien de MEX??
[21:16] <amsigen> english?
[21:16] <Relondo> How can I see the task manager equivalent in Ubuntu?
[21:16] <kyle__> Relondo: Well if it worked on on the usb-drive but not the hard drive, it's just a package difference.  Just need to find which one it needs.
[21:16] <amsigen> open terminal
[21:17] <amsigen> and type htop
[21:17] <kyle__> Relondo: in a terminal, type "top" and hit enter
[21:17] <Relondo> kyle_: What does that mean?
[21:17] <D[4]ni> Relondo: gnome-system-monitor
[21:17] <amsigen> htop is the task manager.
[21:17] <kyle__> amsigen: it comes with htop by default now?  Awesome.
[21:18] <Relondo> kyle_: I'm not able to make much sense of this. It's a little more complicated :/
[21:18] <amsigen> kyle has quit.
[21:18] <kyle__> amsigen: I quit?  When did I quit?
[21:18] <amsigen> dude, how to reply someones message ?
[21:18] <amsigen> i am a really newbie in irc.
[21:19] <amsigen> sorry.
[21:19] <wylde_> amsigen: type a few characters and hit tab
[21:19] <amsigen> i just saw a quit message.
[21:19] <wylde_> !tab | amsigen
[21:19] <kyle__> amsigen: Depends on the client, in irssi & ircii, type a name followed by a :
[21:19] <rgenito> ah hello ubuntu community!
[21:19] <amsigen> a :kyle___ like this?
[21:19] <Zoohouse> rgenito: Greetings
[21:20] <amsigen> example
[21:20] <amsigen> :/
[21:20] <rgenito> anyone familiar with linux's include/linux/modversions.h ?
[21:20] <kyle__> amsigen: Almost.
[21:20] <falstaff> Hello rgenito
[21:20] <rgenito> i'm trying to figure out how to get that for ubuntu
[21:20] <rgenito> so that i can compile a special driver
[21:20] <New0> hi all. can plz some guide me (or give me a link) about: now i install ubuntu in step 5 of 8 and choosing the partition. 3th par for ubuntu. what is the best way to do so? tnx
[21:20] <amsigen> kyle__,  ahha
[21:20] <kyle__> That works.
[21:20] <amsigen> kyle__,  i think i find out
[21:20] <amsigen> :D
[21:20] <wylde_> !find modversions.h
[21:21] <Relondo> kyle_: So what's this about packages? You mean like software packages?
[21:21] <amsigen> ubottu,  thanks dude.
[21:21] <jarray52> Has anyone managed to get their graphics card working with vga_switcheroo?
[21:21] <rgenito> wylde_: that doesn't help :(
[21:21] <rgenito> or does it?
[21:21] <tbrock> hey guys, having trouble getting 2 screens working in 12.04 with a radeon card
[21:22] <tbrock> its super slow and the settings don't stick after a restart
[21:22] <wylde_> rgenito: it means you need to install the kernel headers :P
[21:22] <rgenito> ahh, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.38-8-generic
[21:22] <rgenito> ? ;D
[21:22] <wylde_> rgenito: which is common when compiling software.
[21:22] <iTonnerre> Hi there
[21:22] <rgenito> thankw wylde_ :) your input does help a lot!
[21:22] <iTonnerre> I have a problem with mdadm: I replaced one disk of a two-disk raid-1 array and now it won't stop rebuilding because the remaining disk has a bad block
[21:22] <bairui> hi, (ubuntu 12.04, unity) when I use the Super key for navigating between desktops, the small mini-desktop overlay stays in the middle of the screen until I press Escape or Enter. Is there a way to have it disappear (as it does with the default ctrl-alt-[left/etc] maps)?
[21:22] <iTonnerre> Is there a way to tell Linux' md resync impl to skip over that bad block?
[21:22] <rgenito> wylde_:  WTF?!?!?
[21:22] <rgenito> linux-headers-2.6.38-8-generic is already the newest version.
[21:22] <kyle__> Relondo: Yes. If it worked on the usb and not on the hdd, then you just need to install the right packages.  Browse through the package manager.  It even has a search feature.  Makes it easy.
[21:22] <rgenito> looks like i already have the headers, but that one file is missing =[
[21:23] <cromag> can i force a package to be installed from a PPA instead of the standard repos ?
[21:23] <iTonnerre> (I don't have any good copies of the block but it shouldn't keep me from syncing the rest of the data)
[21:23] <kyle__> iTonnerre: um.  It should reject the disc, not rebuild, if it's got a bad block.  I think.
[21:23] <wylde_> rgenito: odd, are you compiling source from the ubuntu repos?
[21:23] <rgenito> wylde_: locate modversions.h comes up with: /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.38-8-generic/include/config/modversions.h
[21:23] <Relondo> kyle_: Package manager?
[21:23] <kyle__> iTonnerre: You can always mdadm --fail /dev/md0 /dev/<bad disc> to remove it.
[21:23] <iTonnerre> kyle__: it's the _source_ disk which has the bad block
[21:23] <rgenito> ...perhaps that's the actual file that the driver is looking for?
[21:23] <Relondo> kyle_: Dude, I just installed Ubuntu yesterday.
[21:23] <iTonnerre> kyle__: the other copy was on a broken disk
[21:23] <tbrock> anyone?
[21:24] <rgenito> wylde_: after all, i dont see many sites that say anything about include/linux/modversions.h
[21:24] <iTonnerre> (Which I already removed, I'm trying to sync fromk the disk with the one bad block to a clean one)
[21:24] <wylde_> rgenito: likely, the configure or make script could possibly be looking elsewhere for it.
[21:24] <kyle__> iTonnerre: Errr.  Fsck it with badblocks prehaps.
[21:24] <rgenito> ty for your help tho wylde_ .. i really appreciate it
[21:24] <iTonnerre> kyle__: what do you mean, running badblocks on the underlying partition?
[21:25] <LittleBallOfHate> iTonnerre: badblocks on the one living disk with data then readd the blank disk
[21:25] <wylde_> rgenito: you can try 'sudo apt-get build-dep packagename' but that may only work for source from the ubuntu repos to resolve dependencies
[21:25] <kyle__> iTonnerre: depends on the fs you're using, but if it's ext2/3/4 you can fsck -f and pass it a -c, and it will check the filesystem, AND check for badblocks, and attempt to relocate the data that's located on the bad parts
[21:25] <New0> like what should be swap partition and what should OS? and what kind of part type?
[21:25] <Chaos_Ze1o> hello, i was here last night failing at networking wit iptables. i an tring to follow this guide:  http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html
[21:25] <iTonnerre> kyle__: well, on top of the md there's an LVM PV
[21:25] <kyle__> iTonnerre: After that it will avoid using the bad area.  Then maybe it'll recover.  Good luck :(
[21:26] <rgenito> wylde_: what i'm trying to install is a driver... gotta do "make" then "make install" (no 'configure')
[21:26] <Chaos_Ze1o> my uestion currently is near the beginning here it says "Finally, let $P1_NET be the IP network $P1 is in, and $P2_NET the IP network $P2 is in."
[21:26] <esing> the only difference between lubuntu and ubuntu is the desktop environment ?
[21:26] <kyle__> iTonnerre: You could add another pv to the lvm, and move the vgs and lvs over to it, but that can be a pain.
[21:26] <rgenito> wylde_: this is what i'm installing :D http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm
[21:26] <Chaos_Ze1o> what exactly does the "ip network" mean?
[21:26] <esing> so I can switch easily from lubuntu to ubuntu by installing unify ?
[21:27] <cbmuser> xt
[21:27] <iTonnerre> The problem is: md tries to recover the array but when it hits the bad block it just stops the recovery and starts from 0
[21:27] <falstaff> My Wifi card can see all the networks but it will not connect.
[21:27] <tbrock> exit
[21:27] <erinaceus_> esing: As far as i remember you have to install gnome-desktop
[21:27] <esing> erinaceus I thought the new ubuntu uses no more gnome but unify ?
[21:27] <iTonnerre> (Which is quite a dull thing to do IMO)
[21:28] <wylde_> rgenito: .... from what I read that driver has been patched with those drivers already? Do you need something not supported alreadyby it?
[21:28] <Relondo> kyle_: Gotta go. Thanks your your help.
[21:28] <cbmuser> the version of date found in Ubuntu is broken, is that known?
[21:28] <wylde_> rgenito: sorry kernel 3.0.0-19
[21:28] <erinaceus_> esing: Oh, I'm not sure, i havent used gnome for a while
[21:28] <esing> itonnerre why?
[21:28] <cbmuser> root@precise:~# date -d "1000 months ago"
[21:28] <cbmuser> date: invalid date `1000 months ago'
[21:28] <cbmuser> root@precise:~# date -d "2000 months ago"
[21:28] <cbmuser> Mon Nov 16 04:56:13 CET 1981
[21:28] <iTonnerre> kyle__: that may work, but I think there should be a way to make md resync ignoring that one bad block
[21:28] <esing> erinaceus_ you use ubuntu ?
[21:28] <cbmuser> this has been fixed in Debian for a long time
[21:28] <rgenito> wylde_: ahh, so i'd need kernel 3.0.0-19 in order to have the path with those drivers?
[21:28] <erinaceus_> esing: Used to, recently swichted
[21:28] <yooo> relebrei os velhos tempos do Mirc agora... haha
[21:29] <esing> erinaceus then you should know which desktop environment is installed as default :P
[21:29] <iTonnerre> esing: because I think if you don't have a good source for a block it's better to just skip it than to restart the sync again and again
[21:29] <kyle__> iTonnerre: There may be, but I don't know it.  What comes to my mind is to use the FS level badblock avoidence, then let mdadm sync.
[21:29] <wylde_> rgenito: no if you're using a kernel newer than that the drivers should already be included
[21:29] <kyle__> iTonnerre: Also, if you're using xfs, know that it does NO checking or handling for bad sectors.  It expects high-end drives that have good error detection onboard.
[21:29] <esing> itonnerre ???
[21:29] <esing> itonnere are you talking about my question or something else ?
[21:30] <iTonnerre> esing: your question was just «why»
[21:30] <erinaceus_> esing: Well yeah, in ubuntu it's gnome im pretty sure. I believe unity is a seperate thing
[21:30] <rgenito> wylde_: damn, i'm using kernal 2.6.38-8-generic ... looks like i need kernel 3.0.0-19 :(
[21:30] <esing> erinaceus_ i think you are wrong
[21:30] <iTonnerre> kyle__: the setup is: md-raid -> LVM -> LVs with ext*fs or something else
[21:30] <wylde_> rgenito: ahhh you still on 10.04?
[21:30] <rgenito> ...is there an apt-get install for a new kernel (+the header files) for ubuntu 10.04 ? :D
[21:30] <rgenito> err, this is 11.04 actually
[21:31] <Rasmus> Hi, I'm having a problem with intel 82830m and ubuntu 10.04, the driver wont work on my internal display, but with an external hooked up it works just fine and dandy
[21:31] <erinaceus_> esing: Could be as I said, last time i had to do soemthing like that, it just was a matter of installing the right desktop enviroment on you current ubuntu version
[21:31] <erinaceus_> And im afk, good luck
[21:31] <wylde_> rgenito: hmmm you try in backports to see if there's a 3.0.+ kernel
[21:31] <kyle__> iTonnerre: If you have room, you can move where on the pv (md0 in this case) the lv resides.  That may help, but it may not.  I really don't know what to tell you.  Sorry.
[21:31] <rgenito> which ubuntu has 3.0 kernel?
[21:32] <esing> erinaceus_ thx
[21:32] <wylde_> rgenito: 12.04 does 3.2.0-24-generic for me on amd64
[21:32] <rgenito> welp, looks like i'm installin 12.04! :D
[21:33] <bbrazil_> Hi, I just upgraded from Lucid to Precise on amd64. Boot goes Lilo, loading linux, lots of dots and then hangs. Does anyone have any ideas as to how to debug this? I have single user mode via an older kernel
[21:33] <wylde_> rgenito: hehe, if you'd rather not just enable the backports in software sources and see if there's an updated kernel backport for 11.04
[21:35] <rgenito> wylde_: well, i have no idea how to do that honestly
[21:35] <iTonnerre> kyle__: I'm trying that now… makes things a bit harder though, which is probably obvious
[21:35] <iTonnerre> kyle__: thanks for the suggestion!
[21:36] <rgenito> wylde_: ...ok i figured out how to enable backports :)
[21:36] <wylde_> rgenito: I'm working from memory,(I'm on kubuntu right now) but you can open your Software Update app and use the "sources" button to add backports.
[21:36] <Mike9863> I'm using gnome-shell and the fglrx driver, and my system is slightly laggy. Videos also seem to play slowly. Anyone know how to fix this?
[21:36] <sirriffsalot> mongo: you stil there? Any idea how the facebook-downloading works with youtube-dl?
[21:36] <rgenito> i'm on a headless machine btw @_@
[21:36] <kyle__> iTonnerre: I feel your pain.  I rebuilt from a similar failure a few weeks ago.  It also prompted me to move to raid6.
[21:36] <rgenito> wylde_: i'm on a headless machine btw @_@
[21:36] <kyle__> iTonnerre: big write penalty, but I can loose any two of the four drives, and not loose data.
[21:36] <wylde_> rgenito:  lol so you're working over ssh?
[21:37] <iTonnerre> kyle__: I only have room for 2 drives in the machine though :)
[21:37] <rgenito> wylde_: yes
[21:37] <kyle__> iTonnerre: Damn.  Time to garbage pick a P4 and make it a closet NAS server I'd say ;)
[21:37] <rgenito> wylde_: is updating the kernel in the ubuntu world easier now? :D
[21:38] <rgenito> wylde_: i'm over by the machine as well...it's right here. but there's still no GUI on it.
[21:38] <iTonnerre> kyle__: well, it's a regular 1U server in a regular server rack … paid space, so higher servers aren't feasible
[21:38] <wylde_> rgenito: basically yes. you can just apt-get install it. However it doesn't remove the old one. Which is good in case there are issues with the new one.
[21:38] <esing> hi
[21:38] <esing> why would ubuntu change to unity ?
[21:39] <rgenito> wylde_: ahhh very cool! how do i boot to the new kernel?
[21:39] <wylde_> rgenito: reboot that's it. Unless you have another os installed it should use the new kernel
[21:40] <kyle__> Stupid apple ARD can't shut down a mac who's HDD is dying, and it's at the other location. My syslog server is getting filled fast :/
[21:40] <wylde_> rgenito: after the reboot just use 'uname -a' to verify the kernel used
[21:40] <QbY2> O
[21:40] <kyle__> Tonnerre: Ah.  Yea, rack space is pricey, I understand the desire to keep it small.
[21:41] <QbY2> I'm currently running a ubuntu live cd (TOR's TAILS), and I've got a problem with my MacBook Pro.  Are there any utilities that will give me the SMART status or can perform a good inspection of the hard disk?
[21:41] <wylde_> rgenito: I meant the grub menu will only come up if there are more than 1 os.
[21:41] <rgenito> ahh
[21:41] <kyle__> QbY2: smartctl -A /dev/sda or if you're in OSX smartctl -A /dev/disk0
[21:42] <kyle__> QbY2: But if you're in OSX, you'll probably need to install smartmontools from ports.
[21:42] <QbY2> ok
[21:42] <rgenito> wylde_: so do i just do sudo apt-get install kernel3 ? :D
[21:42] <rgenito> hehe
[21:42] <rgenito> (i need the header files too)
[21:42] <QbY2> kyle..  i'm in ubuntu (live cd)
[21:43] <QbY2> kyle__: what package is smartctl in, i apparently don't have it.
[21:43] <kyle__> QbY2: OK.  If it's not there, apt-get install smartmontools
[21:43] <wylde_> rgenito: 'apt-cache search apartofthekernelname' to find the available packages
[21:43] <wylde_> rgenito: moment
[21:44] <kyle__> QbY2: You can also trigger internal drive tests with it, if it shows OK, but you don't beleive it.  smartctl -tshort /dev/sda (short test), or smartctl -tlong /dev/sda (long test, obviously)
[21:45] <QbY2> sweet
[21:46] <QbY2> kyle__: thanks a ton man.  one more question, i forgot what kind of drive is in here.  anyway to get that?  tried lspci and don't see it..
[21:46] <LinTux> Anybody using GNURADIO with the DVB-T Dongle as an SDR Receiver?
[21:46] <kyle__> QbY2: Also, if smartctl shows the drive failed a smart test and is marked as failing, that's MORE than enough for an Apple Genius to swap the drive out for you under warnantee.
[21:47] <wylde_> rgenito: 'sudo apt-get update && apt-cache search linux-image-3'
[21:47] <kyle__> QbY2: I thought under linux it showed that in smartctl...but if not, hdparm -I /dev/sda and hdparm -i /dev/sda will both give you lots of info
[21:47] <CannedCorn> hey guys can anyone help me get two displays working on ubuntu 12.04 with a radeon card
[21:48] <rgenito> thanks wylde_ :)
[21:48] <CannedCorn> i've searched around but none of the solutions seem to help
[21:48] <wylde_> rgenito: you shouldn't need to bother compiling those drivers with a kernel newer than 3.0.0-19
[21:48] <QbY2> ok..
[21:48] <rgenito> wylde_:  you kick ass man :D let's be friends :D
[21:48] <wylde_> rgenito: np
[21:48] <QbY2> i can't find this package in synaptic, and apt-get didn't work..  i forget how to re-enable all the repos..
[21:48] <wylde_> :)
[21:48] <rgenito> the apt-cache search function has no output for me @_@
[21:49] <wylde_> o.O really?
[21:49] <funkymonk> anyone here familiar with analog apache www log analyiser and ubuntu?
[21:49] <kyle__> damn hipsters wanting analog everything.
[21:50] <esing> can i keep my DM (lightDM) or do I have to get Unity-2d either for unity (DE) ?
[21:51] <novato_br> my audio settings: ALSAMIXER ALC 662 rev.2  There is a noise when I turn my microfone on. But my mic is okay, because it has been tested in other 2 computers and it worked perfectly.
[21:51] <novato_br> what could i do?
[21:51] <CannedCorn> nah?
[21:52] <esing> can i keep my DM (lightDM) or do I have to get Unity-2d either for unity (DE) ?
[21:52] <novato_br> when you detect a noise from mic, what do you do?
[21:52] <wylde_> esing: your question makes no sense.
[21:53] <esing> wylde_ so you are saying the DM has nothing to do with the DE ?
[21:53] <wylde_> esing: you can use lightdm with most DE's
[21:54] <esing> good to know
[21:54] <wylde_> esing: with most it'll be fine. You can run  Unity, Gnome 3, XFCE, LXDE etc. on lightdm.
[21:58] <esing> wylde_ should I keep my old DE just in case? I suppose all configurations stay the same, but only the layout changes ^^
[21:58] <CannedCorn> guys
[21:58] <CannedCorn> ?
[21:58] <wylde_> esing: for the most part. You can have multiple DE's installed, you just choose which you want when you login.
[21:58] <esing> cool
[21:59] <esing> Iam going to reboot to switch to unity, cu

[22:08] <ezbbunk> how do you prevent windows from disappearing? I have some terminal sessions that keep disappearing and Alt-tab cant bring them back

[22:10] <zhanger> XDS20120: use df -h to check free space
[22:11] <XDS20120> which device am i looking at ?

[22:15] <esing> good ! thanks !
[22:15] <XDS20120> I setup wubi to have 13gb
[22:15] <Lil> ahh, the joys of learning subversion
[22:15] <QbY2> kyle__: you still around?  http://pastebin.com/C6HcL40n -- to my untrained eye looks not good..
[22:15] <zhanger> XDS20120: /dev/loop0 is it
[22:15] <zhanger> mounted on /
[22:16] <zhanger> it says 2.2G is available
[22:16] <XDS20120> zhanger:  that doesn't make sense tho, i set it up so that it had a cealing of 13gb
[22:16] <XDS20120> wtf
[22:17] <zhanger> XDS20120: i'm not really sure, i haven't used wubi before
[22:17] <zhanger> but i'm guessing it partitioned /home and /usr to be separately mounted
[22:17] <ProtekNickz> 240 Head_Flying_Hours = possibly hard drive failure
[22:17] <zhanger> as /home takes up another 1.7 gigs and /usr takes up 4 gigs
[22:18] <zhanger> XDS20120: what are you trying to do anyway
[22:18] <zhanger> install more software? because your /usr is 100% full
[22:18] <XDS20120> zhanger:  setup wubi (ubu) correctly obviously
[22:18] <XDS20120> whats the root password
[22:19] <wylde_> !root | XDS201
[22:19] <zhanger> oh i thought you already setup wubi correctly
[22:19] <zhanger> my bad
[22:19] <XDS20120> wtf
[22:19] <XDS20120> zhanger:  that is why i am asking
[22:19] <XDS20120> if something looks out of place i ask
[22:20] <zhanger> XDS20120: my guess is it's got something to do with your /usr being too full
[22:20] <XDS20120> this doesn't look right
[22:21] <XDS20120> to hell with it then i'll re-install what a giant waiste of time
[22:21] <XDS20120> waste*
[22:21] <zhanger> good luck XDS20120 D:
[22:21] <ProtekNickz> XDS20120: what up, i just got here?
[22:21] <XDS20120> ProtekNickz:  setup wubi to have a 13gb cealing , and my output shows 98/100% full
[22:22] <XDS20120> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032835/
[22:22] <XDS20120> grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
[22:23] <ProtekNickz> XDS20120: right iv'e seen this before with another user, they put it down to some of the wubi 98% being installation files
[22:23] <XDS20120> its bs
[22:23] <WillPittenger> How do you install Ubuntu without Unity?  (Or uninstall Unity?)  As a cheap imitation of Apple's desktop, it's a piece of junk.  In the past, I would use the Ubuntu Classic desktop.  But when I installed from the 12.04 32-bit ISO, there was no such option.  I tried uninstalling Ubuntu (the software center let me), but that broke the install and it would no longer boot.  What other options...
[22:23] <XDS20120> stupid bs
[22:23] <WillPittenger> ...are there?
[22:23] <ProtekNickz> like when you format a 500gb HD and only get 497GB ect..
[22:24] <zhanger> WillPittenger: use another distro like kubuntu or xubuntu or lubuntu
[22:24] <xangua> !nounity | WillPittenger
[22:24] <bsmith093> can i cat a bunch of files together and then splice out the urls?
[22:24] <XDS20120> this isn't some small change in size ProtekNickz
[22:24] <zhanger> !classic
[22:24] <bsmith093> sorry , i meant can i splice out the urls from a block of text automattically
[22:24] <wylde_> bsmith093: I bet you'd get a good answer to taht in #bash ;)
[22:25] <ProtekNickz> how big of a change?
[22:25] <wylde_> that*

[22:25] <zolom> Hi all, was wondering if someone could help me set up HDMI sound on 11.04 for nv GTX 560. Have Pulse installed, can see streams in pavucontrol, but no sound :( Internal audio switched off in pavucontrol; also built nvidia module from nvidia.com.Ty
[22:26] <_pants> How do you make something run at login in Unity? I searched http://unity.ubuntu.com/projects/unity/ for "login" and "startup" and didn't turn anything up.
[22:26] <ProtekNickz> XDS20120: whats the total size of wubi
[22:27] <XDS20120> what ?
[22:27] <ProtekNickz> you said you set 13gb aside right?
[22:27] <XDS20120> the program is 3mb
[22:27] <XDS20120> right
[22:27] <LinTux> I have just uninstalled wine usine sudo apt-get autoremove wine, all went fine but i cannot get rid of the menu category, HELP?
[22:27] <ProtekNickz> wubi = windows installer for ubuntu yes
[22:29] <XDS20120> what in the world are you talking about
[22:29] <Relondo> How can I make my Ubuntu not require a log-in every time I close my laptop lid and reopen it?
[22:29] <xangua> Relondo: set the preferences of that on Energy settings
[22:29] <ProtekNickz> XDS20120: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide this "wubi" right?
[22:30] <Relondo> xangua: I have it set to "When I close the lid: Do nothing".
[22:30] <XDS20120> ProtekNickz:  is there another wubi i don't know about ?
[22:31] <ProtekNickz> XDS20120: well as far as i know nope, but when i said you installed it on your windows, you sounded confused and said what?
[22:31] <sjohnson> hi.  how does one use apt-get to find out what package it might install, without installing it?
[22:31] <Relondo> xangua: Would my being on Wubi change anything?
[22:32] <XDS20120> ProtekNickz:  you are making absolutely no sense
[22:32] <WillPittenger> Is 12.04 Natty?
[22:32] <XDS20120> there is only one wubi
[22:32] <xangua> !12.04 | WillPittenger
[22:32] <wylde_> sjohnson: 'apt-get -s install packagename'
[22:32] <ProtekNickz> XDS20120: are you serious, wubi install's on top of windows yes, so you can use ubuntu in a window get me?
[22:33] <xangua> Relondo: never used wubi, kind of acts strange
[22:33] <wdp_> is it normal, that some menubar's are gone in ubuntu (dunno how else to name that) i just installed pidgin, xchat and sylpheed - none of these has a menu bar at the top and I have no clue how to enable that one.
[22:33] <XDS20120> ProtekNickz:  yes i'm serious
[22:33] <ProtekNickz> another words it installs like an application
[22:33] <wdp_> (like file edit open etc)
[22:33] <Relondo> xangua: Gotcha.
[22:33] <wdp_> s/has/have
[22:33] <XDS20120> Relondo:  do me a favor what does df -h say ?
[22:34] <wylde_> wdp_: unity uses globalmenu. Whichever app is focused their menubar will be on the top panel
[22:34] <sjohnson> wylde_: thanks
[22:34] <wdp_> wylde, so removing unity will do the job?
[22:34] <XDS20120> Relondo:  just installed wubi myself.  what a pain
[22:34] <wylde_> wdp_: you can just remove globalmenu :)
[22:34] <wdp_> ah
[22:34] <wdp_> how do i remove that?
[22:34] <Relondo> XDS2010: Here is what it said: Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/loop0       18G  4.2G   13G  26% / udev            1.7G   12K  1.7G   1% /dev tmpfs           686M  884K  685M   1% /run none            5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock none            1.7G  4.8M  1.7G   1% /run/shm /dev/sda2       451G  244G  207G  55% /host
[22:34] <wylde_> moment
[22:34] <ProtekNickz> XDS20120: well the the 2% of you wubi would prolly be you swap file
[22:35] <wdp_> gotcha. i see, the menu is at the top..
[22:35] <XDS20120> Relondo:  in the future please use pastebin
[22:35] <wdp_> thats not very useful there.. ^^
[22:35] <Relondo> XDS20120: Pastebin?
[22:35] <XDS20120> paste.ubuntu.com
[22:36] <Relondo> XDS20120: Brb
[22:36] <XDS20120> k
[22:36] <wylde_> wdp_: I don't recall the actual packagename. Search apt or the software center for appmenu or globalmenu.
[22:36] <wylde_> wdp_: I'm on kubuntu atm .
[22:36] <XDS20120> or http://sprunge.us
[22:37] <XDS20120> now i have to re-install windows and everything what a giant pain
[22:38] <XDS20120> bbl
[22:38] <wdp_> wylde, hm i don't find it
[22:39] <wylde_> wdp_: moment, I'll look for it on http://packages.ubuntu.com
[22:39] <wdp_> there's appmenu-gtk -gtk3 and -qt, but i don't think that's it.
[22:39] <rypaint> I currently have a machine that has win7 on it and I have another drive I want to throw in there and have ubuntu so I can pick the drive I want at boot ....can anyone send me in the right direction to set that up?
[22:40] <XDS20120> rypaint:  i would say use wubi, but now im thinking its a POS
[22:40] <xangua> !dualboot | rypaint
[22:40] <XDS20120> what is with all this balogny with throwing links at people, doesn't anyone get we dont want to be bombarded with info overload
[22:41] <XDS20120> more bs
[22:41] <rypaint> thanks ill take a look
[22:41] <wylde_> wdp_:  It's been a while, I know it globalmenu for thunderbird/firefox. But something like appmenu for unity. I have to run for a few, sorry.

Now when I boot I just get a desktop with top and bottom panals that disappear within about 2-3 seconds after they appear. I can right-click to change desktop background, and I also have the "open in terminal" rig

[22:52] <XDS20120> im not just going to go blindly deleting partitions
[22:52] <esing> that kind of weird, I seletced Ubuntu Desktop but everything seem the same :o
[22:52] <newbchessplayer> zhanger, "Cannot register panal shell. There is one already running"
[22:52] <ProtekNickz> XDS20120: ok i didn't relise this, i just thought it was a single installation of wubi, first time ect..
[22:53] <zhanger> newbchessplayer: sudo killall gnome-panel
[22:53] <zhanger> and try running it again
[22:53] <XDS20120> well you assumed, and when you assume .... you know :)
[22:53] <ProtekNickz> XDS20120: :D
[22:53] <zhanger> honestly i think it could be a configuration problem
[22:54] <GNS3Talk> Gents, my Ubuntu 12.04 boots up when connected to my AVR (media receiver) but and the receiver detects a signal from it when at the boot loader stage. Once it goes bound that, the receiver loses the signal! What's strange about it is that if I unplug the HDMI cable, the PC boots fine and it event detects the receiver if I plug the HDMI cable AFTER it completed the booting up process. Has anybody come across this before?
[22:54] <ProtekNickz> XDS20120: howmany ext partitions ?
[22:54] <newbchessplayer> zhanger, that fixed the panals. now where do i go from here?
[22:54] <zhanger> newbchessplayer: what else is still wrong
[22:54] <GNS3Talk> stupid auto-correction!
[22:55] <XDS20120> atleast 2 others
[22:55] <ProtekNickz> k
[22:55] <mobilnoob11> mobilnoob11
[22:55] <zhanger> wait newbchessplayer are you running unity or gnome3 session
[22:55] <newbchessplayer> zhanger, the title bars of all the windows are still missing + i would like a _permanent_ fix if possible
[22:56] <newbchessplayer> gnome3
[22:56] <Yoshimi-pink> I want to make a live cd with multiple distros on it
[22:56] <zhanger> newbchessplayer: do you have mutter installed
[22:56] <newbchessplayer> what is mutter or how do i check that it's installed?
[22:56] <sacarlson> Yoshimi-pink: I didn't know you could do that with a cd but you can with a usb
[22:57] <Yoshimi-pink> that would be interesting to learn about
[22:57] <zhanger> it's the window manager for gnome 3, the thing that draws window borders/titles, try running sudo apt-get install mutter
[22:57] <zhanger> @ newbchessplayer
[22:57] <nightKnight> sudo -s
[22:58] <newbchessplayer> zhanger, "mutter is already the newest version"
[22:58] <zhanger> okay newbchessplayer try running gnome-shell --replace
[22:59] <newbchessplayer> zhanger, sorry the application gmome-shell has closed unexpectedly
[22:59] <newbchessplayer> ""
[23:00] <lorddelta> Hello, could any linux gurus in here help me out with diagnosing some crashes I've been having recently? Where, exactly do I start looking? I know about log files, not sure which ones to look into, although I know mysql is going crazy on me.
[23:00] <brooke_> back
[23:00] <zhanger> newbchessplayer: that's odd... hmm
[23:00] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: is it mysql crashing?
[23:00] <brooke_> so how do u covert to mp4 again
[23:00] <zhanger> at this point i would think you should try reinstalling gnome-shell i guess
[23:01] <lorddelta> SolarisBoy: Something like that...
[23:01] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: do you have mode information on the 'something'?
[23:01] <SolarisBoy> s/mode/more
[23:02] <lorddelta> KernelLog keeps on updating with mysql main process ending, and respawning
[23:02] <wylde_> wdp_: good stuff :)
[23:02] <lorddelta> Also seeing a lot of apparmor="DENIED"
[23:03] <lorddelta> It seems to do this about every 10-30 seconds
[23:03] <lorddelta> SolarisBoy: that enough more information?
[23:03] <Nosophorus> is anyone using ubuntu precise with XFCE?
[23:03] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: can you show the error on pastebin/gist?
[23:03] <lorddelta> That's all I've got, if you've got recommendations, that was part of the question :D
[23:03] <lorddelta> k one sec
[23:03] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: its a little but not enough to make an assumption
[23:05] <lorddelta> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032880/
[23:05] <lorddelta> Last 100 lines
[23:05] <lorddelta> of /var/log/kern.log
[23:06] <Nosophorus> is anyone using ubuntu precise with XFCE?
[23:06] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: ok
[23:06] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: have changed anything with apparmor or mysql? is this a new installation of mysql that received this error? what changed if not?
[23:07] <SolarisBoy> it appears to be a denial of a mknod operation from apparmor against mysql - i would say some profile you have enabled is doing it
[23:07] <SolarisBoy> i am not sure your setup - but if you need apparmor you can disable the offending profile
[23:07] <wylde_> Nosophorus: what do you want to know? Ask your question all on one line and if anyone knows they'll answer.
[23:08] <lorddelta> SolarisBoy: I haven't touched apparmor
[23:08] <Nosophorus> thanks, wylde_! It seems there is something wrong with anti-aliasing
[23:08] <lorddelta> I barely understand it, although I know its some sort of permissions enforcement
[23:08] <lorddelta> So I don't fool with it.
[23:08] <brooke_> how do i convert video to mp4
[23:08] <Nosophorus> the fonts look like a little bit blurred
[23:08] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: i asked you what changed though - anyway do this 'apparmor_status'
[23:08] <Guest24880> hello guys/gals, I have no sound. Im on Ubuntu 12.04..
[23:09] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: actually 'sudo apparmor_status' if needed
[23:09] <sacarlson> Yoshimi-pink: I was wrong you can create a cd with multi boot distro http://jeysundar.blogspot.com/2009/05/multi-live-distro-in-single-cddvd.html
[23:09] <MrDave> hello guys/gals, I have no sound. Im on Ubuntu 12.04..
[23:09] <lorddelta> MySQL on the other hand: I haven't "changed" anything, although I have done web-development on it in the past.
[23:09] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: ok how about any upgrades/updates?
[23:09] <lorddelta> Currently for whatever reason I cannot access the db, for instance my apache server has a wordpress app on it that isn't connecting corretly
[23:10] <wylde_> Nosophorus: ahh ok, hmmm I *was* using xfce .... I'm trying to remeber where the settings were for that.
[23:10] <lorddelta> SolarisBoy: no updates to my knowledge, beyond official ones with sudo apt-get update/upgrade
[23:10] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: can you run the command please ?
[23:10] <SolarisBoy> and pastie it
[23:10] <lorddelta> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032885/
[23:11] <Ansikt> Ugh.  Transferring though my USB 1.1 ports takes forever.  I have one 2.0 port though.  Any tips for figuring out which one it is?
[23:12] <brooke_> how do u convert vids to mp4
[23:12] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: also give pastie of this 'ls /etc/apparmor.d/' again you may need sudo
[23:12] <mobilnoob11> does anyone know a fix for the acer laptop ethernet module freeze issue?
[23:12] <lorddelta> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032888/
[23:13] <mobilnoob11> I reading right now, but so far no solution
[23:13] <sacarlson> brooke_: you can't find it?  did you try sudo apt-get install ffmpeg; ?
[23:13] <tuxx> hey guys i just installed ubuntu 12.04 via debootstrap and for some reason i cant seem to get sound playing via pulseaudio. I installed pulse-audio and it seems to be running fine (no errors in the logs) and when i play an mp3 ith mplayer for example i get: AO: [pulse] 44100Hz 2ch floatle (4 bytes per sample) but no sound is playing
[23:14] <tuxx> if i run mplayer as root then i get: AO: [pulse] Init failed: Connection refused    AO: [alsa] 48000Hz 2ch floatle (4 bytes per sample)
[23:14] <tuxx> and sound plays fine
[23:14] <SolarisBoy> ok can you now try this: it will be two commands: 'sudo ln -s /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld /etc/apparmor.d/disable/' and then do 'sudo apparmor_parser -R /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld'
[23:14] <tuxx> for some reason i'm not geting sound via pulseaudio
[23:14] <tuxx> can anyone think of a reason why?
[23:14] <mobilnoob11> K, gott run
[23:14] <Ansikt> brooke_ : use mencoder
[23:14] <MrDave> I have no sound. Im on Ubuntu 12.04..
[23:15] <lorddelta> SolarisBoy: done
[23:15] <ClientAlive> this tutorial doesn't give a concrete example and I'm not getting my syntax right in fstab. They show a generic example line "servername:dir /mntpoint nfs rw,hard,intr 0 0"  but what is "servername"??   For the love of god this has been going on for over 4 hrs. I just want to be done with it. I'm begging you please, 30 seconds of your time...
[23:15] <SolarisBoy> hmm ok
[23:15] <MrDave> wow, lots of people having sound issues
[23:15] <SolarisBoy> can you try to restart mysql and monitor your logs?
[23:15] <MrDave> i have no sound...
[23:16] <MrDave> :/
[23:16] <tuxx> MrDave: have you tried running mplayer as root?
[23:16] <tuxx> MrDave: that works for me
[23:16] <MrDave> no tux
[23:16] <tuxx> MrDave: try it?
[23:16] <MrDave> ok
[23:16] <tuxx> MrDave: for me it seems pulseaudio is the issue
[23:17] <MrDave> tuxx same here i think
[23:17] <MrDave> tuxx i got lots of terminal output running mplayer as root
[23:18] <tuxx> MrDave: can you play via alsa?
[23:18] <MrDave> no
[23:18] <MrDave> no sound anywhere
[23:18] <tuxx> MrDave: do you have /dev/snd ?
[23:18] <MrDave> whats that
[23:18] <SolarisBoy> sound device
[23:18] <tuxx> the directory
[23:18] <tuxx> ls /dev/snd
[23:18] <tuxx> does it show anything?
[23:18] <MrDave> by-path    controlC1  hwC1D0    pcmC0D0p  seq
[23:18] <MrDave> controlC0  hwC0D0     pcmC0D0c  pcmC1D3p  timer
[23:19] <tuxx> k so you have sound actually
[23:19] <MrDave> lol, ok
[23:19] <v1adimir> xubuntu 12.04 my i5-2400 is this http://sprunge.us/RhWa and it's reporting to be running @ 1600 MHz http://www.datafilehost.com/download-23228ba8.html - can someone help me pls?

[23:19] <tuxx> MrDave: theres a driver registered at least
[23:19] <MrDave> hmm
[23:20] <MrDave> but theres no fix?
[23:20] <esing> how to enable Login screen ?
[23:20] <esing> I see an option: "window manager: openbox-lubuntu"
[23:20] <esing> do I have to replace that with Unity ?
[23:20] <tuxx> MrDave: i'm sure you can play with alsa
[23:20] <MrDave> tuxx, i tried, an got nothing
[23:21] <tuxx> MrDave: run alsamixer
[23:21] <tuxx> check that your sound is not muted
[23:21] <Nik_> try1
[23:21] <Nik_> ah
[23:22] <MrDave> did, no sound... h,,
[23:22] <MrDave> hmm
[23:23] <v1adimir> .. any1 know; why xubuntu is throttling down the CPU by fault livecd install??
[23:23] <v1adimir> s/fault/default
[23:23] <v1adimir> (and how to 'fix' it :))
[23:24] <MrDave> nothing seems to work
[23:25] <wylde_> v1adimir: the throttling is probably set to "on-demand" try doing something cpu intensive and you'll see you cpu throttle up to max.
[23:25] <v1adimir> wylde_: tnx!.. how can i monitor the change, pls?
[23:25] <lorddelta> SolarisBoy: Seems like that fixed some of the issues.
[23:26] <lorddelta> ...the only other thing I'm seeing is an eCryptfs message now, and apparently I'm running Zephyr..didn't realize that.
[23:26] <MrDave> all the people with sound issues type/press Y
[23:26] <wylde_> !find cpufreq | v1adimir
[23:26] <slobad2323> join #ubuntu
[23:27] <lorddelta> slobad2323: you're already in it
[23:27] <wylde_> slobad2323: you're already here :P
[23:27] <slobad2323> Could someone please explain how ubuntu configures apache2's document root - i cannot find it anywhere
[23:27] <slobad2323> *here I am!*
[23:27] <wylde_> slobad2323: /var/www by default
[23:27] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: hmm not to sure about that... is that related to your mysql issue?
[23:27] <meLon> I am having a hard time getting Compiz to decorate windows on DISPLAY 0.1.  I've tried compiz --replace --display :0.1 --sm-disable & and DISPLAY=:0.1 compiz --replace but neither work. Any suggestions?
[23:27] <wylde_> slobad2323: also providing you installed from the repos
[23:28] <slobad2323> I would like to change it...
[23:28] <MrDave> man i got so much downloaded an installed. I dont want to re-install Ubuntu just cause of sound issue.
[23:28] <meoblast001> hello. i'm a little concerned with what Ubuntu (probably Unity) must be doing to my machine
[23:28] <slobad2323> I installed from repos yes
[23:28] <lorddelta> SolarisBoy: I doubt it. I've never used Zephyr, it looks like some sort of chat program.
[23:28] <lorddelta> I don't know what the eCryptfs thing is.
[23:28] <lorddelta> I think I've had it almost ever since I installed Ubuntu
[23:28] <wylde_> slobad2323: config files in /etc/apache2 /etc/apache2/sites-available
[23:28] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: not sure either - do you use an encrypted file system?
[23:28] <lorddelta> ...I know what eCryptfs is
[23:28] <lorddelta> Yes
[23:28] <meoblast001> occasionally (i can't seem to reproduce any case, because it's entirely spontaneous), the entire system will lock up (similar to what a fork bomb will do) and my hard drive activity light will go solid... this ONLY happens if i'm running Unity though
[23:29] <lorddelta> Home directory is encrypted
[23:29] <meoblast001> i left for a while and this happened, and when i came back, the hard drive activity light was still solid
[23:29] <wylde_> slobad2323: you would edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/default and modify the docroot, then restart apache 'sudo service apache2 restart
[23:29] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: what are the symptoms of the "error"?
[23:29] <SolarisBoy> whats the result?
[23:30] <slobad2323> Is that synonymous with apachectrl restart?
[23:30] <lorddelta> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1032899/
[23:30] <lorddelta> ^ Most recent kern.log
[23:30] <wylde_> slobad2323: not sure, I always use the service method
[23:30] <lorddelta> Like I said that's the only issue I'm seeing now
[23:30] <slobad2323> wylde, Thanks for pointing me to sites-available. I've not stumbled across apache configured in a modular way like this before. I will have to check it out and make sure I understand exactly what's going on here.
[23:30] <SolarisBoy> ' Valid eCryptfs headers not found in file header region or xattr region, inode 15081357'
[23:31] <SolarisBoy> its referring to a specific file/folder
[23:31] <wylde_> slobad2323: np, there's lots of documentation floating about for apache on ubuntu :)
[23:31] <kayve>  Hi I'm trying to install R on Ubuntu Precise and I keep seeing pages that say I need to provide a repository SSL key to a couple of gpg commands and I don't know what key to provide
[23:31] <wolfgang> How do i get itunes on ubuntu 12.04?
[23:31] <SolarisBoy> its saying that something about the file header's or extended attributes is not correct for cryptfs
[23:32] <tuxx> MrDave: ~ubuntu1@74.60.162.48
[23:32] <tuxx> MrDave: oops
[23:32] <MrDave> huh
[23:32] <tuxx> MrDave: speaker-test -c6 -D surround51
[23:32] <tuxx> try that
[23:32] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: whats the actual problem you see if any?
[23:32] <wolfgang> How do i get itunes on ubuntu 12.04?
[23:32] <wylde_> !itunes | wolfgang

[23:33] <wolfgang> wylde, can i get anything that will let me work with my ipod?
[23:33] <lorddelta> SolarisBoy: Not seeing any. Not right now. :) Next step would be to verify that none of my other logs contain anything suspicous in them. If I see anything I'll let you know
[23:33] <wolfgang> !players

[23:34] <wylde_> wolfgang: I don't use any "i" devices too proprietary for me, there may be some useful info on the following factoid though.
[23:34] <wylde_> !ipod | wolfgang
[23:35] <tuxx> MrDave: do sudo lsof /dev/snd/*
[23:35] <tuxx> u'll need to install lsof probably
[23:35] <tuxx> that should show you which device is using the sound devices
[23:35] <tuxx> i mean wich process
[23:36] <MrDave> k
[23:36] <SolarisBoy> i wish distro's would just go ahead and start bundling lsof (and tcptraceroute) they are so useful =)
[23:36] <wolfgang> How do i do get an os on virtual machine?
[23:36] <slobad2323> I have been using gnome3 with Fedora and keep slamming my cursor into the top left hand corner of the screen to give me access to all my windows... *doh*
[23:37] <SolarisBoy> wolfgang: you mean how do you install an OS on a vm?
[23:37] <wolfgang> yeah
[23:37] <SolarisBoy> wolfgang: depending on the software your using it generally just involves pointing the vm at the install media and booting it
[23:38] <lorddelta> SolarisBoy: any idea how I would find said 0-size files?
[23:38] <lorddelta> I tried a find . -size 0c...but that's turning a ton of stuff
[23:38] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: sure probably a few.. ;>
[23:38] <brooke_> how do i convrt vids to mp4
[23:38] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: you can also find the inode...

[23:39] <lorddelta> SolarisBoy: not familiar with dong this though, recommended command?
[23:39] <SolarisBoy> lorddelta: i would also start from /home probably if thats whats encrypted, and use something like -xdev also so you don't go off the file system
[23:39] <slobad2323> brooke_, "sudo apt-get install ffmpeg"
