| usr13 | zidpod: host us.archive.ubuntu.com | 00:00 |
| Roasted | If I want to rsync to a webdav share, can I do so through .gvfs when its mounted? or is that a bad idea? | 00:01 |
| zidpod | usr13 huh? anyways I just tried sudo apt-get update --fix-missing (it suggested I tried that), and now it is downloading I think... but it is a different build | 00:02 |
| usr13 | zidpod: sudo apt-get install linux-libc-dev | 00:03 |
| usr13 | zidpod: uname -a | 00:03 |
| usr13 | zidpod: (tell us your kernel version number) | 00:04 |
| mikefarr | usr13, is there a way i can repair the install - I tried doing wubi to fix but it wont install if there is already an installation | 00:04 |
| squeeeshie | now how do you change the size of a brush? | 00:04 |
| usr13 | mikefarr: I don't know much about wubi Maybe someone else on here can give you some advise. But I'm pretty sure that if you try to install again over an existing install, you're not going to have any success. | 00:05 |
| zidpod | usr13 after I sudo apt-get update --fix-missing, sudo apt-get install linux-libc-dev installed with a different build number, 3.2.0_25.??, and it says I am using 3.2.0.24 | 00:05 |
| zidpod | that might be a problem... | 00:05 |
| mikefarr | usr13, any other suggestions then | 00:05 |
| azbuka | Hello, everyone. Has anyone knowledge of the mini.iso and Realtek wireless cards? I can't access the Internet without dragging my PC over to the home office router. | 00:06 |
| zidpod | shoot, it looks like I just needed to install updates, sorry, thanks for the help usr13 | 00:06 |
| usr13 | zidpod: I dono. | 00:06 |
| lawltoad | hey, youtube's colors are all weird.... anyone see this before?... Im running chrome on pangolin | 00:07 |
| usr13 | zidpod: yes, if you have yet to do updates, do that for sure. If you have done updates and have a new kernel that was one of the updates, you need to reboot. | 00:07 |
| reisio | lawltoad: flash+nvidia bug | 00:07 |
| zidpod | lawltoad: yeah, I had the same problem, there was a guide on askubuntu on how to fix it, try looking there | 00:07 |
| reisio | lawltoad: you can right click on Settings and disable hardware accel as a temporary workaround | 00:07 |
| azbuka | lawltoad: send me a screenshot. that sounds interesting. | 00:07 |
| arimail | I'm getting a HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed for /dev/sdb: Invalid argument And i'm trying to use edit parameters in Grub to find my disk. It's a Ubuntu intall on a USB external hdd disk. But I don't figure out what do change/do to be able to boot my ubuntu. Could someone please help me? | 00:08 |
| lawltoad | azbuku, is there like... a pastebin for image? | 00:08 |
| cogster | My desktop background won't change & I keep having to retype my password even though I disabled lock in system settings, thank you. | 00:08 |
| azbuka | lawltoad: I guess you could use an img to ASCII art converter xD but that wouldn't let me see the colours. :/ | 00:10 |
| ColonelPanic | cogster, So you cannot login? | 00:10 |
| usr13 | cogster: Maybe you need to turn off the power save function. | 00:10 |
| Baribal | Hi. Where / how can I customize the dock? | 00:11 |
| usr13 | azbuka: iwconfig #What does that say? | 00:11 |
| azbuka | usr13: this is on the install image running from a flash drive. i don't have it running at the moment. Perhaps I'll reboot, run it, and write the results when I cum back. | 00:12 |
| lawltoad | azbuka email? | 00:12 |
| azbuka | lawltoad: sure. mbro96@yahoo.com | 00:13 |
| zidpod | quit | 00:13 |
| usr13 | azbuka: You may get what you want and you may not. You can't expect a totally functional system when running an image from flash drive. | 00:14 |

| conner_bw | Hi, a few days ago when I would close the lid on my X220, the computer would suspend. Now it just shuts off the monitor but the fan still goes. Using ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Settings -> Power seems fine. What could have changed? | 00:19 |
| CellTech | Am I able to install the *buntu's on an old Power Mac G4? | 00:19 |
| Gyges | i think so | 00:19 |
| debblade | Gyges that brings up my BIOS | 00:19 |
| CellTech | I hope :D | 00:19 |
| Gyges | debblade, just wait until passes bios | 00:19 |

| reisio | debblade: that made a lot of sense | 00:25 |
| arimail | Is thre anything that I can do? | 00:25 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | cant u change that in the grub.cfg | 00:25 |
| nibbler_ | arimail, you get this error once your are in the bootloader during the bootprocess and play in the commandline of the bootloader? | 00:26 |
| taipres | jrib the mysql exploit that let users get access with 250 trys or whatever, comparison bug, very serious | 00:26 |
| debblade | debblade just read that they set the grub2 timing for zero sec | 00:26 |
| jadams | I cannot for the life of me get nouveau successfully blacklisted | 00:26 |
| reisio | debblade: Ubuntu's been doing that for ages | 00:26 |
| arimail | @nibbler Yes, correct | 00:26 |
| reisio | debblade: it's not the only thing they hide | 00:26 |
| jadams | which is causing me great grief when trying to install latest NVIDIA driver manually (wine acting up with repo provided one, this fixed it for me at work as well) | 00:26 |
| jadams | I've got `blacklist nouveau` in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 00:26 |
| jadams | but it just loads it anyway | 00:27 |
| jadams | I see others with the same problem online, but no solution | 00:27 |
| reisio | jadams: blacklist.conf ? | 00:27 |
| jadams | reisio: yeah, I've got an entry in there | 00:27 |
| reisio | jadams: it's not just modprobe.d/blacklist? | 00:27 |
| debblade | I use debian and was just getting rid of that crap called Unity for XFCE. Had just got rid of lame DE and was going to boot into term and install xfce only to not have grub. My boss is going to kill me. | 00:28 |
| jadams | reisio: no, it's .conf | 00:28 |
| jadams | doesn't matter, all the files in .d dirs are loaded anyway | 00:28 |
| reisio | debblade: k | 00:29 |

| Roasted | is webdav by design slower? I'm getting 3.7 MB/s transfer speed in nautilus with webdav on a gigabit network. | 00:31 |
| johnswr | Anyone know where to get codec-v? Video streams says I need it. | 00:31 |
| arimail | @nibler_ Yes, that's what happens. | 00:32 |
| debblade | reisio so mad I cant type. I use Debian wheezy with xfce. Boss uses Ubuntu ver (gay animal name). Was going to get rid of Unity and install xfce for him. Once I remove all the Unity crap I was going to boot into shell and do the rest... | 00:32 |
| nibbler_ | debblade, i'm trying to follow you - what happens if you just boot normal, what is the final state? | 00:34 |
| reisio | debblade: just give him Debian if Debian is what you use and you're the system maintainer | 00:35 |
| * cypher-neo agrees with reisio... it's much easier to maintain a system you are familiar with than try to maintain two separate systems. | 00:36 | |
| cypher-neo | debblade: But I am curious what happened when you uninstalled Unity? What did it break? | 00:36 |
| Roasted | Is it possible to rsync over webdav? I'm trying to rsync to a dav://192.168.1.20/blah/blah URL right now and terminal is just sitting here doing nothing. ???? | 00:36 |
| Bsims | Roasted: Hrm I dunno does normal cp work over webdav? | 00:37 |
| nibbler_ | Roasted, try top, vmstat 1 - its analysing both sides, one via network, as it treats it as local ;-) | 00:37 |
| Roasted | Bsims, come to think of it I think its due to the lack of my username being in the command. I wonder if going throguh .gvfs would be acceptable. | 00:38 |
| Roasted | nibbler_, hey thar. ;) | 00:38 |
| nibbler_ | Roasted, hey thar, too ;-) | 00:38 |
| Roasted | eh, its erroring out | 00:39 |
| Bsims | Roasted: Hrm try it and let me know... my addiction to team fortress 2 has me in windows at the moment | 00:39 |
| Bsims | Roasted: do you run kde or gnome/unity? | 00:40 |
| Roasted | er wait | 00:40 |
| debblade | cypher-neo Ill paste the cmd I used. http://pastebin.com/iH7Ervpa then apt-get install xubuntu-desktop | 00:40 |
| Roasted | I had an extra dash in there | 00:40 |
| Bsims | might want to try a gui front end | 00:40 |
| * Bsims nods that will get you every time | 00:40 | |
| Roasted | --az, when it should be -az. It looks like its functioning, but its failing for certain operations | 00:40 |
| Roasted | Bsims, looks like its somewhat working though? | 00:40 |
| debblade | cyphase just that I would do && apt-get install xubuntu-desktop since there is no grub | 00:40 |
| Roasted | Bsims, it's certainly not operating any faster. Some speeds here are looking to be half of what I was getting in nautilus. | 00:40 |
| cyphase | debblade, i think you mean cypher-neo :) | 00:41 |
| debblade | but I have boot on an other disk and fixed that problem. Now I am installing the way I want | 00:41 |
| debblade | lol yeah sry cyphase | 00:41 |

| cyphase | np, i get lots of cyph- pings :P | 00:41 |
| cypher-neo | debblade: lol @ the title of your paste. I love it! | 00:42 |
| cypher-neo | debblade: How to make Ubuntu suck less | 00:42 |
| Bsims | Hrm overhead via webdav filesystem translations? | 00:42 |
| debblade | =) cyphase-neo its all true | 00:42 |
| debblade | =) cypher-neo its all true | 00:42 |
| luis_ | heee dudes! someone who can tell me about ICR chat about hardware I have a little problem whit my video card and windows | 00:43 |
| dro10 | hi i would like to know if its normal to have networked process in /tmp (or @/tmp)? | 00:43 |
| * Bsims knows anything ran through kde's automagic takes a lil longer | 00:43 | |
| cypher-neo | debblade: I can agree with the majority of that. I'm currently switching my computer to Xubuntu as well. | 00:43 |
| WeThePeople | peace | 00:44 |
| debblade | debblade more or less stripped it to a bare bone GNU/Linux and then installed xubuntu-desktop. | 00:44 |
| luis_ | drugs | 00:44 |
| Bsims | cypher-neo: try wmaker | 00:44 |
| arimail | so debblade. Any ideas? | 00:44 |
| SuPrbly | why ditching ubuntu for xubuntu? | 00:44 |
| cypher-neo | Bsims: wmaker? | 00:44 |
| reisio | SuPrbly: isn't it obvious? | 00:44 |
| === Youri is now known as Iruoy | ||
| arimail | Sorry, i meant nibbler | 00:45 |
| reisio | SuPrbly: the only difference is Unity vs Xfce | 00:45 |
| Bsims | yeah think NeXT, aka forrunner of mac osX | 00:45 |
| luis_ | someone? I need a ICR about hardware | 00:45 |
| === mobilegamelabs is now known as MGGGGG | ||
| SuPrbly | not a unity fan? lol | 00:45 |
| luis_ | who is the admin? | 00:45 |
| Bsims | its very fast, and very basic | 00:45 |
| cypher-neo | debblade: If you want to make xfce awesome check out Cardapio. | 00:45 |
| debblade | cypher-neo I can strongly recommend Debian with repos testing/wheezy | 00:45 |
| luis_ | .!. | 00:45 |
| cypher-neo | debblade: Cardapio comes with an AWN app, and I like using XFCE with AWN/Cardapio | 00:46 |
| reisio | SuPrbly: again, obviously? Why would he leave Unity if he were a fan of it | 00:46 |
| luis_ | ¬¬ | 00:46 |
| Bsims | one feature of wmaker is middle click on a icon is different than left click aka left click opens a spreadsheet, middle click opens your checkbook | 00:46 |
| luis_ | who do not love unity! | 00:46 |
| debblade | cypher-neo Ill take a look. I got compiz pimped to the max with "the cube" and emerald etc. | 00:46 |
| debblade | on this xfce | 00:46 |
| SuPrbly | i dont mind it | 00:46 |
| dro10 | anyone? | 00:47 |
| luis_ | he someone who is admin | 00:47 |
| luis_ | ? | 00:47 |
| cypher-neo | debblade: I had trouble getting into Debian. My biggest problem is that I only have one computer now (my other one blew it's graphics processor), so I'm looking for something I'm used to. I'm used to the Ubuntu command structure and how to install things from .deb files and PPA's. | 00:47 |
| usr13 | dro10: What? | 00:47 |
| SuPrbly | i do like xfce also its super a lightweight gui | 00:47 |
| dro10 | hi i would like to know if its normal to have networked process in /tmp (or @/tmp)? | 00:48 |
| luis_ | I have a little problem whit mi video card who can help me? | 00:48 |
| cypher-neo | debblade: I didn't have a lot of time to explore Debian, but it was so foreign I didn't want to mess it up... until i had a backup computer I didn't have files on that i could mess it up on. | 00:48 |
| SuPrbly | i had it on my little t42 for awhile it just doesnt look as pretty as gnome and unity | 00:48 |
| usr13 | dro10: Yea, I know what you said, just not sure what you mean. | 00:48 |
| SuPrbly | unless they have changed it | 00:48 |
| luis_ | fuck you | 00:48 |
| cypher-neo | debblade: Cause we nerds learn the most when things are borked ;p | 00:48 |
| cypher-neo | luis_: I can try to help. Describe the problem | 00:49 |
| usr13 | dro10: Can you be a little more specific? | 00:49 |

| Fudge | hi quick question for those using unity, how many menus to the left is sound from the device menu | 00:52 |
| usr13 | dro10: Oh, well I think that's normal. | 00:53 |
| luis_ | the think is when I installed Ubuntu, I delete my windows partiton, so when I installed again the Funking windows it's been frozen, and by school I need windows | 00:54 |
| dro10 | @usr13 is normal to see keyring something process too? | 00:54 |
| usr13 | luis_: If you deleted your windows partition, I don't think there is much we can do to help you. Sorry. | 00:55 |
| luis_ | no the problem is, I installed again | 00:55 |
| luis_ | and it's only don't works | 00:55 |
| luis_ | someone said that it's by the video card | 00:56 |
| usr13 | dro10: Not sure about keyring. I personally don't use keyring so, really don't know. | 00:56 |
| purple_mouse | tomboy, service options, greyed out, can't change, any ideas? | 00:56 |
| usr13 | dro10: Maybe someone else here could weigh in on this.... | 00:56 |
| arimail | usr13: But I can't seem to run these commands from the grub command line. | 00:56 |
| lupintheethird | For some reason, when I switched my icons to gnome all my icons go invisible | 00:56 |
| arimail | And I cant boot ubuntu.. | 00:56 |
| dro10 | usr13: k thanks | 00:56 |
| usr13 | arimail: What commands? | 00:57 |
| usr13 | dro10: Maybe try ##linux ? | 00:57 |
| lupintheethird | Has anyone had that problem ? | 00:57 |
| luis_ | usr13, no the problem is, I installed again | 00:57 |
| luis_ | <luis_> and it's only don't works | 00:57 |
| luis_ | <luis_> someone said that it's by the video card | 00:57 |

| usr13 | luis_: Can you login to a console terminal? | 00:58 |
| usr13 | arimail: sudo fdisk -l | 00:58 |
| cypher-neo | SuPrbly: If you're using it from AWN, right click on the Cardapio app and change it's settings. You can specify it to raise on a keypress. I set mine to activate when I hit the Dash key on my keyboard. | 00:58 |
| luis_ | yes | 00:58 |
| luis_ | usr13, yes I can | 00:59 |
| usr13 | luis_: lspci |grep VGA | 00:59 |
| lupintheethird | Does anyone know why only ubuntu-mono icon themes are working I cannot get the default gnome icons to work properly | 00:59 |
| usr13 | luis_: (what is your video card?) | 00:59 |
| Fudge | no one with eyes on wants to tell me a simple menu name? | 01:00 |
| arimail | usr13: Where do I run this command? I can't boot into ubuntu at all. Neither can I boot safety mode. | 01:00 |
| cypher-neo | lupintheethird: GNOME pushed an update to the icon theme a while ago that broke them... at least it did in gnome-shell. I don't know if they broke everywhere. | 01:00 |
| usr13 | luis_: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 01:00 |
| usr13 | luis_: (and look for errors) | 01:00 |

| arimail | So does anyone know how I can get my Ubuntu to boot? It's on an external USB hdd, but I get the error HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed for dev/sdb/ | 01:09 |
| Derxst | HaltingState: to make them smaller, right-click on the desktop and select "Change Desktop Background" | 01:09 |
| HaltingState | Derxst, nope | 01:10 |
| Derxst | At the bottom, there is a slider for Launcher size | 01:10 |
| HaltingState | Derxst, no there isnt | 01:10 |
| mernilio | i just had a question about hashish.. | 01:10 |
| ki4ro | HaltingState: Try here: http://www.webupd8.org/2011/10/how-to-move-unity-launcher-to-bottom-of.html | 01:10 |
| usr13 | szal: You don't seem to understand. Sorry I can't explain it to you and not trying to be rude. | 01:10 |
| luis_ | usr13, tell me where is ? | 01:11 |
| mernilio | from the muppet show . hold on.. i must rewind it. | 01:11 |
| mernilio | :-) | 01:11 |
| Derxst | Ok, at the tope of the launcher, click the Ubuntu logo (when you hover it should say Dash home) | 01:11 |
| Derxst | type System Settings and click the icon that appears | 01:11 |
| usr13 | luis_: Can you move to luis (channel #luis ( | 01:11 |
| Derxst | under personal, select "Appearance" | 01:11 |
| mernilio | well you can have it .. its on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=fvwp&NR=1&v=ip5e9NUvX6A | 01:12 |

| luis_ | usr13, (channel #user13) | 01:13 |
| HaltingState | they took the slider out because they hate our freedoms | 01:13 |
| mernilio | ubottu: its also a place for potheads! | 01:13 |
| ubottu | mernilio: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 01:13 |
| mernilio | ;-) | 01:13 |
| OerHeks | HaltingState, look at the first tab, "look" not "Behaviour" | 01:13 |
| HaltingState | why isnt compviz settings changes actually changing anything; wtf | 01:13 |
| mernilio | ubottu: i know ur stupid! | 01:14 |
| ubottu | mernilio: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 01:14 |

| Derxst | HaltingState, try this for the launcher icons - http://askubuntu.com/questions/125794/missing-ability-to-change-the-size-of-launcher-icons | 01:14 |
| OerHeks | HaltingState, you must have a older ubuntu version, the icon size bar is visible here. | 01:15 |
| mernilio | JoseeAntonioR: my attittude is perfekt! Mind your own bussiness mister! | 01:15 |
| HaltingState | OerHeks, this is the newest version | 01:15 |
| Derxst | HaltingState: at login, are you using Unity, Unity2d? | 01:16 |
| HaltingState | Unity | 01:16 |
| luis_ | usr13, thats for Xorg log | 01:16 |
| mernilio | before i will take you down! | 01:16 |
| mernilio | like the sheep you look like! | 01:16 |
| usr13 | luis_: Do you see any clues there? (Clues as to why your GUI is not loading?) | 01:16 |
| mernilio | ;-) | 01:16 |

| Derxst | Can you validate? According to what I read, the behavior you mention happens in Unity2D | 01:17 |
| arimail | Please guys. What can I do about the HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed error? I can't boot ubuntu 11.10. No helpful info on google. | 01:17 |
| mernilio | please dont ban me! | 01:17 |

| ubottu | mernilio: Again, please watch your attitude.: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 01:17 |
| Derxst | could also be a driver issue | 01:18 |
| mernilio | oki, ill shut up then :-) | 01:18 |
| usr13 | luis_: I can't see it, so I can only go by what you say about it. | 01:18 |
| zewb | what are the commands to ask the bot questions | 01:18 |
| zewb | is there a list of them somewhere | 01:18 |
| r00t__ | hoi | 01:18 |
| usr13 | !ubottu | zewb | 01:18 |
| ubottu | zewb: Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi | Usage info: http://ubottu.com/devel/wiki/Plugins | Bot channels and general info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots | 01:18 |
| JoseeAntonioR | zewb: You can test the bot via PM. | 01:19 |
| usr13 | luis_: Let me ask you this: What do you see on the screen when the system is finished booting? | 01:19 |
| r00t__ | someone german? :) | 01:20 |
| genii-around | r00t__: in #ubuntu-de | 01:20 |
| mernilio | i need op status here. Is it possible? | 01:20 |
| usr13 | !de | r00t__ | 01:20 |
| ubottu | r00t__: In den meisten Ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuche bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Einfach "/join #ubuntu-de" eingeben. Danke für Dein Verständnis! | 01:20 |
| r00t__ | ty genii | 01:20 |
| OerHeks | mernilio, no, and don't ask for that. | 01:20 |
| lix | hi. good manual/howto for yubikey pam auth for ubuntu anyone? | 01:21 |
| lix | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UDS/M says: "https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UDS/M" | 01:21 |
| mernilio | I need it so ban a couple of people | 01:21 |
| HaltingState | Derxst, its Ubuntu, not Ubuntu 2d and the bar still does not exist and compviz settings are being ignored | 01:21 |
| lix | hi. good manual/howto for yubikey pam auth for ubuntu anyone? | 01:21 |
| luis_ | usr13, when the system is boot, I see the ubuntu spoiler, i see something like ...... UBUNTU | 01:21 |
| Derxst | sounds like Unity is not present | 01:21 |
| mernilio | Its of utterly importance! ;-) | 01:21 |
| lix | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UDS/M says: "create howto for remote access one-time password auth: HOTP/yubikey " | 01:21 |
| usr13 | luis_: And when it's done, what do you see? | 01:22 |
| JoseeAntonioR | mernilio: you won't be able to get ops in this channel | 01:22 |
| genii-around | mernilio: It's not going to happen. | 01:22 |
| wylde_ | mernilio: go ask in #ubuntu-ops since you won't take the "Don't ask here" answer | 01:22 |
| luis_ | the same or some times, the proses killing itself | 01:23 |
| mernilio | but i have cancer and sit in a wheelchair.. lonley! :-( | 01:23 |
| Derxst | mernilio: get ops ability will not solve either of your conditions | 01:23 |
| usr13 | luis_: SO when the system is finished booting, can you do Ctrl-Alt-F6 and go to another console screen and login? | 01:24 |
| usr13 | luis_: Or can you ssh into it from another computer? | 01:24 |
| mernilio | That was a lie.. i admit it :-) | 01:24 |
| wizkid057 | ok, this is driving me insane... what in the world starts "dhclient3"? | 01:24 |
| Derxst | being a liar is another reason not to get op status | 01:24 |
| usr13 | wizkid057: What are you trying to do? | 01:24 |
| wylde_ | !ot | mernilio: go find another bridge | 01:24 |
| ubottu | mernilio: go find another bridge: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 01:24 |
| wizkid057 | usr13: disable any and all network management so I can do it myself | 01:25 |
| luis_ | usr13, I can do that now, when I use Ctrl-Alt-F6 I go to other console screen | 01:25 |
| usr13 | wizkid057: You can just uninstall the network-manager | 01:25 |
| usr13 | luis_: Then login and look at the log file. cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 01:25 |
| wizkid057 | usr13: did that already, and avahi... yet somehow dhclient3 starts for all of my interfaces still... | 01:25 |
| luis_ | ok | 01:26 |
| luis_ | usr13, let me see | 01:26 |
| usr13 | wizkid057: Then edit the /etc/network/interfaces file | 01:26 |
| zewb | LOL | 01:26 |

| FloodBot1 | zewb: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:26 |
| wizkid057 | usr13: i dont want to use /etc/network/interfaces ... i want to configure them myself at the command line by hand | 01:26 |
| usr13 | wizkid057: You can do that. Just issue the commands. i.e. sudo dhclient eth0 | 01:28 |
| zewb | lol | 01:28 |
| Noize | Anyone know a good SMS Client for UBuntu???? | 01:28 |

| wizkid057 | and how do I prevent it | 01:29 |
| ColonelPanic | Noize, Have you looked at sms_client ? http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man1/sms_client.1.html | 01:30 |

| sacarlson | wizkid057: did you stop network-manager sudo service network-manager stop | 01:30 |
| zewb | sorry | 01:30 |
| zewb | !root | 01:30 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 01:30 |

| u4ia74 | I have a question. I have a process that is constantly reading the hard drive. Does anyone know of a program that will let me monitor the I/O of individual processes so I can tell which program is doing this? I've tried 5 system monitors/task managers, and none so far. A couple tell me the disk access but none tell me which processes are accessing the disk, or even the I/O of the process. | 01:33 |
| yeats | u4ia74: top? | 01:33 |

| sacarlson | wizkid057: I still run 10.04 without that problem, I guess I can bring up 12.04 in virtualbox and take a look | 01:36 |
| loome | and doing alt-tab is a little too disruptive to the workflow | 01:36 |
| ColonelPanic | tdhz77, Yes. Edit > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies | 01:36 |

| tdhz77 | colonelpanic, firefox freezes whenever I try and remove individual cookies. | 01:37 |
| sacarlson | wizkid057: oh I wonder if it's dnsmask they added that in 12.04 | 01:37 |
| tdhz77 | colonelpanic is there a force quit option in 12.04? | 01:37 |
| ColonelPanic | tdhz77, Strange. Try logging in while in private browsing. | 01:37 |
| luis_ | ok | 01:38 |
| usr13 | luis_: If you see anything that might be interesting, tell us. | 01:38 |
| tdhz77 | colonelpanic the firefox preference dialog is stuck. And I can't launch firefox now. | 01:39 |
| sacarlson | wizkid057: maybe try kill dnsmasq see if it continues otherwise cd /etc ; grep -r dhclient ; to maybe see what starts it | 01:39 |
| ColonelPanic | tdhz77, Try reinstalling. "sudo apt-get remove firefox && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install firefox" and brb | 01:40 |
| wilee-nilee | HaltingState, you in the 2d or 3d unity desktop | 01:40 |
| HaltingState | i am in default one; i think 3d | 01:40 |
| loome | bkerensa: yes. Does there exist a method to change the task bar in its functionality? | 01:41 |
| loome | bkerensa: I want a slightly more traditional-like taskbar, where I can select a window quickly | 01:41 |
| tdhz77 | colonelpanic ok, I'll do it as soon as I'm done installing chromium | 01:41 |
| wilee-nilee | HaltingState, the default may be 2d look at the login options from the dropdown gear, compiz has a refresh problem as well, using compiz --replace I believe restarts it from a alt-f2 | 01:41 |
| luis_ | usr13, I don't see a clue/ erros | 01:41 |
| HaltingState | wilee-nilee, its not | 01:42 |
| HaltingState | i checked | 01:42 |
| wilee-nilee | HaltingState, its not what> | 01:42 |
| ColonelPanic | tdhz77, If all else fails, go to firefox's IRC channel. | 01:42 |
| tdhz77 | colonelpanic is that freenode #firefox? | 01:42 |
| HaltingState | its not the 2d one; i just tried the command you sent; one second | 01:42 |

| wilee-nilee | zema, do either of these commands identify the wireless card. lspci | grep -i wireless lspci | grep Broadcom | 01:53 |

| loome | what is the task bar called in ubuntu world? | 01:56 |
| loome | the thing that's on the left of the screen now.... | 01:56 |
| wilee-nilee | loome, unity panel? | 01:56 |
| loome | (so I can google stuff better) | 01:56 |
| Daekdroom | loome, wilee-nilee actually it is called Launcher | 01:56 |
| loome | basically I want a traidtional task bar instead of this, is that doable? | 01:56 |
| Daekdroom | The Panel is at the top. | 01:56 |
| ki4ro | loome: Launchpad | 01:56 |

| usr13 | luis__: Sorry, I was on the phone. | 01:57 |
| wilee-nilee | luis__, with lspci | grep VGA | 01:57 |
| ki4ro | Daekdroom: So what is it actually called...or does it even have a name? | 01:57 |
| Daekdroom | ki4ro, It is called Launcher. | 01:58 |
| loome | Here's the other question: can Launcher be customized? I want it to show seperate icons for different windows of the same app. Presently it seems I have to click on it.. and it gives me this very computationally expensive "top view".. where I can see the different windows and choose one | 01:58 |
| ki4ro | Daekdroom: Thanks! | 01:58 |
| Daekdroom | The thing you access by clicking the Ubuntu icon at the top of it is called Dash. | 01:58 |
| Daekdroom | And the panel at the top of the screen is a panel. ;) | 01:58 |
| luis__ | usr13, so? | 01:58 |
| ki4ro | Daekdroom: At least I got the launch part right smile | 01:58 |

| tdhz77 | I installed Ubuntu on the new MacBook Pro with retina display. In unity the icons are so small I can't click on anything. How could I increase the icon size? | 02:01 |

| sacarlson | wizkid057: after I service network-manager stop ; killall dhclient; I don't see any dhclient3 apear even after ifconfig down ; ifconfig up | 02:02 |
| wilee-nilee | tdhz77, have you looked in display for a better resolution? | 02:02 |
| luis__ | usr13, but I don't see nothing | 02:02 |
| bierbs_ | loome: i'm wondering the same, looks like to gnome2? | 02:02 |

| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.10 uses GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 02:03 |
| tdhz77 | wilee-nilee 1680 x 1050? | 02:03 |
| sacarlson | wizkid057: maybe even if network-manager is removed you still have to stop it? | 02:03 |
| wizkid057 | sacarlson: even with it removed and after a reboot? | 02:03 |
| loome | bierbs_: have you made the change? can you comment on the difficulty and complexity of the process of switching to gnome2 from unity? | 02:03 |
| wizkid057 | how would it be there to stop... | 02:03 |
| wilee-nilee | tdhz77, that does me no good you have to figure the best for yourself | 02:03 |
| zema | i don't use wine... i use console for install anything but it's always the same error :// | 02:03 |
| tdhz77 | wilee-nilee thats much better than 2880 by 1800 resolution. But, I got a retina display :) | 02:03 |
| sacarlson | wizkid057: I'm not sure what event it might sence in upstart to bring up dhclient3 | 02:04 |
| sacarlson | wizkid057: you might not the the upstart for network-manager is still present even after it's removed | 02:04 |
| sacarlson | note | 02:04 |
| wilee-nilee | tdhz77, I have no idea what a retina display is to be honest that is a apple thing, I believe. | 02:04 |
| bierbs_ | loome: seems ubottu had info | 02:05 |
| luis__ | usr13, it's looks like my desktop | 02:05 |
| sacarlson | wizkid057: so just add in your network script network-manager stop ; killall dhclient; | 02:06 |
| wilee-nilee | tdhz77, here is some comment on this though. http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2012/06/what-does-ubuntu-look-like-on-a-retina-display-bad | 02:06 |
| bierbs_ | loome: i haven't made the switch to or from unity | 02:06 |
| chu | loome: Yeah, you don't want gnome2, you want to install "gnome-panel" (see the !nounity factoid with ubottu) | 02:06 |
| zema | how can I remove wine? | 02:06 |
| HaltingState | bierbs_, if microsoft wanted to destroy linux, they would have shipped unity with a task bar for running applications and no ability to change the icon size for applications in the dock | 02:07 |
| tdhz77 | wilee-nilee great link, thanks! That picture makes the retina display look good compared to what I see! lol | 02:07 |
| sacarlson | wizkid057: try this and tell me if it works http://paste.ubuntu.com/1051928/ | 02:07 |
| HaltingState | i am a developer and i can barely use it now; without hours of frustration and customization its useless | 02:07 |
| wilee-nilee | zema, you might want to install synaptic you can search with more detail if you want a gui, and it has a history. | 02:08 |
| HaltingState | it now takes 5 seconds to open the dash button; instead of doing what i click one, the system now waits 5 seconds before doing a an action like minimizing a window or opening dash panel | 02:08 |
| bierbs_ | HaltingState: yes, touche | 02:08 |
| sacarlson | wizkid057: modify it with your desired values | 02:08 |
| luis__ | usr13, dude? | 02:08 |
| wizkid057 | sacarlson: stop: Unknown instance: | 02:09 |
| wilee-nilee | HaltingState, upgrades are problematic for some personally I always fresh install, and usually next to the old OS. | 02:09 |
| HaltingState | now compviz is broken; i cant change settings; it just ignores them | 02:09 |
| sacarlson | wizkid057: what did I spell wrong? | 02:09 |
| wizkid057 | sacarlson: nothing, i just dont have network-manager installed so it cant stop it... | 02:09 |
| wilee-nilee | HaltingState, alt-f2 resets the unity desktop, and compiz as well usually. | 02:10 |
| wilee-nilee | HaltingState, sorry alt-f2 unity --reset | 02:10 |
| loome | I am sort of in disbelief that such poor decisions were made precisely after there was a big push to have a formal UI team and all. It is clearly decidedly a devolution in terms of usability... I was thinking to have my mom start using 12.04 (seriously), but this is not something she'll be able to handle. There are so many painpoints, things than even I (an experienced desktop user) am irritated and confused by. Why is it that applications are so | 02:10 |

| mputtr | can someone explain the pros/cons of ftp vs samba? and whether or not ftp would be an appropriate option if I just wanted to be able to access the drive in a local network as well as halfway around the world | 02:46 |

| usr13 | mputtr: Comparing ftp to samba is like comparing apples to oranges. Now if you were to ask about samba vs nfs, that would be a better question. | 02:47 |
| usr13 | nphase: samba would not be an option for halfway around the world, where ftp would be. | 02:47 |
| usr13 | mputtr: samba would not be an option for halfway around the world, where ftp would be. | 02:47 |
| mputtr | usr13: i c... i have no idea what the differences are | 02:48 |
| asterismo | hi people | 02:48 |
| asterismo | i need help with something | 02:48 |
| mputtr | i read something about how ftp can be seen as a networked drive | 02:48 |
| asterismo | my Fn keys for volume up/down/mute dont affect the system volume | 02:48 |
| mputtr | I also want to be able to tell my IP cams to upload footage to the ftp server | 02:48 |
| usr13 | mputtr: samba is a Windows SMB/CIFS fileserver for UNIX | 02:48 |
| asterismo | they affect the device "Cedar HDMI Audio [Dareon 5400...]" | 02:49 |
| asterismo | but the device that gives the sound is alsa mixer | 02:49 |
| xangua | asterismo: ubuntu uses pulse audio, did you uninstall pulse audio¿ | 02:49 |
| asterismo | does anybody knows how to change the Fn keys to control AlsaMixer and not Cedar HDMI Audio??? | 02:49 |
| asterismo | I use use Xubuntu | 02:49 |
| mputtr | usr13: i c... so what can samba do that ftp can't? is it the ability to stream music/video? | 02:50 |
| usr13 | mputtr: ftp is File Transfer Protocol and it works like this. You set up an ftp server and access it via ftp client on the client machine to download files from it. | 02:50 |

| cypher-neo | asterismo: If you're using xubuntu, check out your shortcut keys | 02:51 |

| mputtr | InferiorHumanOrg: yeah, i have samba set up | 03:03 |
| usr13 | mputtr: Any access from outside will depend on being able to get through your ISPs security features and accessing the particular PC behind their routers and then having that service's ports forwarded to the outside via your own router and modem. | 03:03 |

| thatsachop | if there any prior knowledge i need to know before trying to learn bash? | 03:23 |

| === Youri is now known as Iruoy | ||

| Areckx | I don't have this problem with VLC, but I want to loop the mp3 over and over and VLC has a slight delay between repeats | 03:28 |

| bazhang | !notunity | LinuX2half | 03:38 |
| ubottu | LinuX2half: Ubuntu 11.10 uses GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 03:38 |
| arimail | after removing quiet splash I see some more commands being executed before stopping boot. I cant type anything in, it just says "Loading, please wait." | 03:38 |

| juicy | any tuts on running a VPS? | 03:49 |
| deathbeforehones | I know, my head hurts thinking about it. | 03:49 |
| thirdwhl | still, if it can't find your hard drive, that's a ##windows issue and you're best to ask there | 03:49 |
| deathbeforehones | will do. Thanks guys. | 03:49 |

| thirdwhl | arooni-mobile, unsure, but moving it or renaming the base folder to something shorter would eliminate that as a cause | 03:52 |
| sacarlson | arimail: maybe you can boot your live cd and see if hdparm -i /dev/sdb gives you any info | 03:52 |
| sacarlson | opps hdparm -i /dev/sda | 03:52 |

| MonkeyDust | roasted_ wikipedia to the rescue https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebDAV#Linux | 04:30 |

| roasted_ | MonkeyDust, did you read that wikipedia article, by chance? | 04:31 |
| roasted_ | MonkeyDust, I DID specify without nautilus and davfs2 | 04:31 |
| MonkeyDust | roasted_ just the linux part, it mentions other options | 04:31 |
| roasted_ | MonkeyDust, the other options are basically other DE equivalents. I.e. Dolphin for nautilus, etc. Either way, thanks, but the hunt continues... unless I can magically get davfs2 working... | 04:32 |

| InferiorHumanOrg | can someone tell me why I cant use 1000 baset on my NIC ethtool wont let me set speed 1000 and im using cat5e cable ro a gigabit router.. | 04:37 |
| roasted_ | InferiorHuman, it wont let you SET the speed? It should be defaulting to gig. | 04:38 |
| nibbler_ | inferiorHuman: i thought gigabit can only be done by autonegotiation, but i might be wrong | 04:39 |
| threexk | If I move window A then focus window B, window A moves back to its original position. Why? | 04:40 |
| roasted_ | nibbler_, !!!!!!! | 04:40 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | roasted_: its defaulting to 100 I have no idea why | 04:40 |
| roasted_ | InferiorHuman, did you try other cables? | 04:40 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | yes i just did | 04:40 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | both cat5e same problem with both. | 04:40 |
| roasted_ | nibbler_, you dont use davfs2 by any random weird strange out of this world chance, do you? | 04:40 |
| nibbler_ | roasted_, morning - hows your webdav doing? | 04:40 |
| roasted_ | TERRIBLE | 04:40 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | the NIC + router are definently gigabit | 04:40 |
| roasted_ | I'm about to start punching babies if I can't figure this out | 04:40 |
| nibbler_ | roasted_, use it from time to time, yes | 04:40 |
| taipres | roasted :\ | 04:41 |
| threexk | Do not punch babies. | 04:41 |
| roasted_ | nibbler_, Nautilus/.gvfs has a bug, where it absorbs the file you're uploading into RAM just prior to sending it to the server. Well, if you send big files, guess what, your RAM maxes out and the connection tanks. | 04:41 |
| roasted_ | three18ti, then teach me davfs2 | 04:41 |
| roasted_ | nibbler_, so I looked at davfs2 which utilizes the sudo mount -t blah blah command, and I can get it working, but only as read only. So now I'm struggling to find how to use sudo mount -t davfs as read/write for a non root user. | 04:42 |
| nibbler_ | roasted_, hehe - just make a standard mount, automount at boot time... use nautilus on this mountpoint then | 04:42 |
| threexk | roasted_: I don't negotiate with terrorists. | 04:42 |
| roasted_ | nibbler_, I'm trying to get it tow ork manually first, as I don't want my work laptop to consistently auto mount it. My desktop however, that's fine. | 04:42 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | if i set speed to 1000 with autoneg on it defaults to 10MB/half | 04:42 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | wtf ??! | 04:42 |
| roasted_ | nibbler_, I figured I'd just create a bash script with the entire mount -t blah blah command in it so I can run, say, sudo ./webdav and connect manually | 04:42 |
| nibbler_ | InferiorHumanOrg, what about its peer? | 04:43 |
| roasted_ | nibbler_, but it's all useless if everything is read only | 04:43 |
| === hybrid is now known as bolitutti | ||

| InferiorHumanOrg | nibbler_: cat5e right? | 04:49 |
| roasted_ | nibbler_, what's funny is, when I right click, theres still options grayed out. create new folder is gryaed out. but if I click it... I create a new folder anyway.... | 04:50 |
| nibbler_ | InferiorHumanOrg, cat5e is fine for 10gig ethernet... so i guess it should do for gigabit | 04:50 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | nibbler_: i guess im gonna have to call them then. | 04:51 |
| nibbler_ | roasted_, you use a different way than me, i c | 04:52 |
| roasted_ | nibbler_, how different? | 04:52 |
| nibbler_ | roasted_, i mounted as a user witht he fusefs tool - there you don't need this user stuff. your way is nicer - if you are/have root | 04:53 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | ive tried two cat5e cables already | 04:53 |
| nibbler_ | InferiorHumanOrg, did you try another gigabit device connected to the router? | 04:53 |
| nibbler_ | InferiorHumanOrg, or the same device connected to another gigabit peer? | 04:53 |
| roasted_ | nibbler_, how is my wya nicer if I require root??? | 04:54 |

| MageofHope | It happens on multiple browsers but I can play music/videos off my desktop just fine | 05:02 |
| nibbler_ | q_a_z_steve, -f takes one argument, and that is the target archive - so this has to follow the f | 05:03 |
| q_a_z_steve | ok, I think that's working | 05:03 |
| MageofHope | Also, flash seems to work fine on at least one website that isn't a video streaming site | 05:03 |
| mharris | MageofHope: quite often due to inadequate buffering in the audio driver | 05:03 |
| MageofHope | :v how would I modify that/check what amount of buffering i have? | 05:03 |

| celthunder | holyfather: ok so whats it doing? | 05:17 |
| MonkeyDust | jbander1 details depend on the resolution, the higher, the better quality | 05:17 |
| jbander1 | I've ran it through gimp and enlarged it but when I send it tp the desktop it's icon size | 05:17 |
| MonkeyDust | jbander1 yes, you have to increase the canvas size, but the quality will reduce | 05:18 |
| holyfather | celthunder airdriver-ng will not compile code right because the gcc version the compile the kernel is not the same as the gcc version on the computer by default | 05:18 |
| MonkeyDust | decrease* | 05:18 |
| jbander1 | I have done that with no results , just icon size | 05:19 |
| celthunder | holyfather: so grab the proper gcc? | 05:19 |
| holyfather | celthunder yes but since I picked up the aircrack-ng suit to have it put back in the repos this is not just for my computer. | 05:19 |

| celthunder | jbander1: mediainfo it | 05:24 |
| celthunder | and pastebin the info | 05:24 |
| jbander1 | whats that?? | 05:25 |
| holyfather | jbander1 thats vagtastic. Think of it. If you have 1 teaspoon of mile and then add 20 liters of water to it ... why does it loose its color? | 05:25 |
| holyfather | milk | 05:25 |
| holyfather | same principle, you cant get something from nothing | 05:26 |
| celthunder | holyfather: thats why i told him to mediainfo it | 05:27 |
| celthunder | lol | 05:27 |
| jbander1 | I'm not complaining about the quality of the photo , I can scan to 1200 dpi , no mater how big I make it in gimp or any other program when I send it to the desktop it becomes a Icon, and you cant increase the size of icon on your desktop without loosing all it's definition | 05:27 |
| celthunder | so we could see exactly how small it is | 05:27 |

| celthunder | wardrop: you do or dont want your environment available to sudo? i dont.... | 06:11 |
| wardrop | celthunder: I do want it available. I always found it a surprise that my environment changed when running something under sudo. | 06:11 |
| wardrop | It goes against the principle of least surprise. | 06:11 |
| celthunder | aeiou_: what did you install? make should tell you where it installed. | 06:11 |
| celthunder | wardrop: thats stupidity. you run sudo to have a different environmental conditions... | 06:12 |
| === slowz_ is now known as sl0wz | ||
| === mputtr|away is now known as mputtr | ||
| celthunder | wardrop: so expect it to be seperate...its supposed to be | 06:12 |
| wardrop | celthunder: I run sudo so I temporarily have admin privilidges, so to change my environment. | 06:12 |
| mputtr | how do i find out the address of my ftp server that i just set up via pureftpd | 06:13 |
| wardrop | not to change my environment* | 06:13 |
| aeiou_ | celthunder: i installed a kde package called okular. i built it in a build folder and then installed it there....so how exactly do i run it? | 06:13 |
| celthunder | wardrop: exactly...you want the environment of root not your user | 06:13 |
| celthunder | aeiou_: well where did you --prefix it to | 06:13 |
| Mobil | Hi. I have an issue with Ubuntu desktop sharing. When I use TightVNC or TigerVNC to connect to Ubuntu, the screen does not refresh. I can move the mouse, and even control the box, but I cannot actually get the viewer to refresh and get a new screen. | 06:13 |
| wardrop | celthunder: I've always looked at it as though I am temporarily raising the privilidges of my account rather than emulating root. | 06:13 |
| celthunder | wardrop: welll by your logic you will eventually end up with a bunch of stuff owned by root in your users dir | 06:14 |
| aeiou_ | celthunder : /path/to/your/kde4/install/dir .. | 06:14 |
| wardrop | celthunder: How do I make that conclusion? How would setting or disabling env_reset affect file ownership? | 06:14 |
| wardrop | How do you* | 06:14 |
| celthunder | wardrop: $HOME is an environtmental variable to start with /home/user isnt /root (or /usr/home/user if bsd) | 06:15 |
| celthunder | so if you run anything that uses that you end up with exactly what i just mentioned | 06:15 |
| decci_ | Anything better than squid and Sarg | 06:16 |
| celthunder | there are other variables as well you probably dont want to intermingle with your user / root environtments | 06:16 |
| celthunder | thats the most obvious one though | 06:16 |
| celthunder | aeiou_: try locate ocular or whatever and see if you can find it id check /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin | 06:18 |
| celthunder | which ocular may also work if you have it in your path | 06:18 |
| mputtr | how do i find out the address of my ftp server that i just set up via pureftpd? | 06:19 |
| celthunder | mputtr: netstat -nl | 06:19 |
| celthunder | mputtr: it usually binds to all addresses by default but if you arent sure or you set a specific one you can see in the config or via netstat | 06:20 |
| fidel | ahoi | 06:20 |
| mputtr | ohhh wow | 06:20 |
| mputtr | cool. i'm hunting for the ftp name | 06:20 |
| celthunder | fidel: hi | 06:20 |
| antonio_ | argh! | 06:20 |
| antonio_ | this is so damn frustrating | 06:20 |
| fidel | mputtr: name the ftp-server is using itself in its welcome message? | 06:20 |
| celthunder | antonio_: ? | 06:20 |
| mputtr | fidel: uh.. not sure what you mean | 06:21 |
| antonio_ | celthunder: for some reason kdenlive is taking FOREVER to render videos | 06:21 |
| fidel | mputtr: you just mentioned that you are hunting for the ftp servers name | 06:21 |
| nafcool | hey | 06:22 |
| hery | qubes os | 06:22 |
| mputtr | well, looking for the actual address so i can try to connect to it | 06:22 |
| Mobil | anyone got a suggestion to my itsy bitsy problem? | 06:22 |
| celthunder | antonio_: ok? get a faster processor/more ram/ssd | 06:22 |
| hery | hi | 06:22 |
| fidel | i was asking if you are talking about the name the ftp server is using in its welcome message - or the name the actual os/server has ;) | 06:22 |
| mputtr | i've never set up a ftp server and i've poured over google for the past 4 hours | 06:22 |
| antonio_ | celthunder: thats not it...it was working fine like two weeks ago | 06:22 |
| celthunder | fidel: thought he asked what address it was listening on.... | 06:22 |
| celthunder | hery: hi | 06:22 |
| celthunder | nafcool: hi | 06:22 |
| fidel | celthunder: i was thinking that too at the start - then he mentioned'name' ;) | 06:22 |
| mputtr | fidel: i meant the actual ftp address. i just installed pureftpd but i can't tell what the server is | 06:22 |
| celthunder | mputtr: ifconfig | 06:23 |
| bluelf | what should be the size of swap as compared to ram ? | 06:23 |
| fidel | mputtr: ifconfig will show your your local ip | 06:23 |
| celthunder | look for your main connection | 06:23 |
| fidel | in case you are working with internal ips & external - that is a different story | 06:23 |
| mputtr | the inet address? | 06:23 |
| hery | celthunder: do you know how to burn qube os into usb flashdisk with ubuntu? | 06:23 |
| celthunder | mputtr: or ip addr if you dont have ifconfig | 06:23 |
| celthunder | hery: if its an iso dd if | 06:23 |
| mputtr | so to access the ftp server, i just put in ftp.<ipaddress>? | 06:24 |
| celthunder | er dd if=your iso of=your flash | 06:24 |
| hery | celthunder, yes i try with dd but doesnt work | 06:24 |
| celthunder | mputtr: ftp ip:port | 06:24 |
| mputtr | ftp.<ipaddress>:port? | 06:25 |
| celthunder | no period | 06:25 |
| celthunder | ... | 06:25 |
| celthunder | ftp ip:port | 06:25 |
| celthunder | .... | 06:25 |
| mputtr | ok.. testing it out.. | 06:26 |
| celthunder | hery: what the hells qube os anyway...try unetbootin or extract the iso directly to the disk is it even bootable? | 06:26 |
| angga | how can i edit systemmenu in fbpanel ?? | 06:27 |
| raziel | raziel | 06:27 |
| celthunder | raziel: you spelt your name 10 points lol ... whats up | 06:27 |
| hery | celthunder, sorry i mean qubes os, qubes-os.org | 06:28 |
| celthunder | so its xen | 06:29 |
| celthunder | thats nice.... | 06:29 |
| hery | celthunder, yes, correct | 06:29 |
| celthunder | hery: you can write the iso using unetbootin or whatever and boot to it from that | 06:29 |
| celthunder | should work | 06:29 |
| MonkeyDust | hery how is that question ubuntu related? | 06:29 |
| aeiou_ | celthunder : i am unable to delete a particular folder called path because it says owner is 'root'. how do iget permissions to delete it? it has an application i want to delete. | 06:29 |
| angga | how can i edit systemmenu in fbpanel ?? | 06:29 |
| celthunder | anyway xen straight up should work from anything | 06:29 |
| celthunder | aeiou_: sudo rm -rf path | 06:30 |
| celthunder | aeiou_: or sudo chown user:user -R path | 06:30 |
| hery | MonkeyDust, :) | 06:30 |
| celthunder | aeiou_: or sudo chmod 777 -R path | 06:30 |
| celthunder | aeiou_: any of the above should allow you to remove it | 06:30 |
| MonkeyDust | aeiou_ careful with rm -rf -- it asks no confirmation | 06:31 |
| aeiou_ | MonkeyDust : it is in my file system and do i have to be in the folder coltaining path before i use this statment? | 06:32 |
| celthunder | aeiou_: no you do not...you may use relative or direct paths | 06:32 |
| celthunder | actually being in the folder you intend to delete will error out rming . while you are in it though it may or may not rm . when you leave for you | 06:33 |
| MonkeyDust | aeiou_ frankly, my advice is to not use rm -rf if you don't know what you're doing and I think you don't | 06:33 |
| aeiou_ | celthunder :what exactly is path to the file system? | 06:33 |
| celthunder | MonkeyDust: the path to your actual fs? /dev/sda most likely | 06:33 |
| celthunder | er | 06:33 |
| celthunder | aeiou_: the path to fs is either /dev/sda most likely points to physical fs...the path to your fs mounts are in fstab/mtab accordingly... | 06:34 |
| mputtr | i can access the box itself, but i can't navigate to where my hdd is at (i have a separate hdd for media files) | 06:34 |
| celthunder | MonkeyDust: i have a feeling hes about to rm /dev or his / | 06:34 |
| celthunder | mputtr: set your rootdir for the ftpd to where you want ... also check permissions | 06:35 |
| mputtr | I set my home directory to the hdd i want it to be at and also set a fake root to be at the same place.. is it because the username i just added is a virtual user? | 06:36 |
| celthunder | aeiou_: if youre using lvm you may have /dev/mapper/ stuff as well that may point to your fs...not sure what you mean by where is the fs | 06:36 |
| celthunder | hmm hope he googles before he rms stuff.... | 06:37 |

| mputtr | ok. gonna find out where it is in pureftpd | 06:44 |
| celthunder | by default most ftpds lock you in your home dir if you turn that off you should be able to go to your other drive | 06:44 |
| celthunder | mputtr: main config file near the bottom if it hasnt changed in ... 5 years? | 06:44 |

| calston | hi there | 06:57 |
| calston | can I ask what in gods name people have done to resolv.conf in recent history? | 06:57 |
| calston | I'd google this problem, but my DNS is broken, and no matter how many virgin bodies are piled in my basement I can't modify my resolv.conf, and even editing network/interfaces just somehow sucks the old dns server out of god knows where and replaces it | 06:58 |
| === HeliusCron is now known as wrenny | ||
| MonkeyDust | calston for a start, mind your language | 06:58 |
| jppiiroinen | calston: so do you need a public dns server address? if so there is opendns for example | 06:59 |
| calston | MonkeyDust: thanks, I'm not a kid and this isn't #relgion or #parenting, do you know how resolvconf works? | 06:59 |
| MonkeyDust | calston after you modified resolv.conf and/or /etc/network/interfaces , you have to restart the network | 06:59 |
| calston | I did that | 06:59 |
| calston | jppiiroinen: I have one, but wherever I put it gets mysteriously replaced | 06:59 |
| jppiiroinen | networkmanager? | 07:00 |
| MonkeyDust | calston disable network manager (nm-applet) | 07:00 |
| calston | hmmm, I hope that's not running on server edition | 07:00 |
| jppiiroinen | calston: did you read the comments in the resolv.conf | 07:00 |
| antonio_ | what is the best way to install kdenlive? | 07:00 |
| jppiiroinen | calston: as if i recall properly it says that the file will be replaced by the daemon | 07:01 |
| MonkeyDust | antonio_ do you prefer CLI or GUI ? | 07:01 |
| antonio_ | monkeydust: whatever one will work the best | 07:02 |
| MonkeyDust | antonio_ then try sudo apt-get install kdenlive -- or the software center -- or synaptic | 07:02 |
| calston | jppiiroinen: yeah sure, so I set dns-nameservers in interfaces | 07:02 |
| calston | jppiiroinen: and so it generates a resolv conf of "nameserver <old broken one>\nnameserver<new one>" | 07:03 |
| jppiiroinen | calston: so you get the old broken one from dhcp server? | 07:03 |
| calston | jppiiroinen: I've grep -R my entire /etc/ for where <old broken one> is, and it is nowhere | 07:03 |
| calston | jppiiroinen: no, this is a dhcp server | 07:03 |
| jppiiroinen | :) | 07:03 |
| jppiiroinen | calston: i hope that somebody else can help you further on this | 07:05 |
| mputtr | well this is odd.... | 07:05 |
| mputtr | for some reason... if i access ftp via web browser, i can see the link, but if i add it as a network share, it refuses to detect the link to the media drive... | 07:06 |

| ankur | Hello everyone, i am using ubuntu 11.04, i want to install gnome-shell , i have added the proper ppa, but when i try to install it gives some dependency error :- eg gnome-shell : Depends: gir1.2-json-1.0 but it is not going to be installed | 07:22 |
| ankur | Depends: gir1.2-mutter-3.0 but it is not going to be installed | 07:22 |
| ankur | Depends: gnome-bluetooth (>= 3.0.0) but 2.91.2.is.2.32.0-0ubuntu3 | 07:22 |
| bkerensa | ankur: did you sudo apt-get update? | 07:22 |
| ankur | yes | 07:22 |
| tking0036 | what about sudo apt-get upgrade | 07:22 |
| ankur | i also did that | 07:23 |
| tking0036 | can you just upgrade to 12.04 | 07:23 |
| === JPeterso2 is now known as JPeterson | ||
| cheche | I just upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04 and languagr went from spanish to english. check supported languages and is spanish first. | 07:23 |
| ankur | i am using 11.04 in the office so can't upgrade | 07:24 |
| fidel | cheche: personaly i would rush forward to 12.04 and then mess around with language again | 07:24 |
| fidel | as 10.04 is still ...well - somehow old'ish | 07:24 |
| fidel | which is no issue itself - but fixing language now and then maybe being forced to re-fix it again after the next upgrade seems not perfect | 07:25 |
| tking0036 | will you get in trouble if you upgrade to 12.04 at the office or something | 07:25 |
| bulletmark | ankur: shame, gnome shell is awkward in 11.04. It's just an "apt-get install gnome-shell" from standard packages in 11.10 onwards .. | 07:25 |
| cheche | fidel: on 8.04 things are.. snappy | 07:26 |
| zombifier | I wouldn't suggest upgrading just yet | 07:26 |
| cheche | fidel: when you move to 10.04 start up is very fast... but same machine star to be laggy | 07:27 |
| cheche | fidel: that increased with 12.04 | 07:27 |
| cheche | fidel: i feel that maybe is a problem in the upgrade process. it was shutdown that machine in the middle | 07:27 |
| fidel | cheche: running 8.04 is no long time option ...i guess you know that | 07:28 |
| fidel | same goes for 10.04 basically | 07:28 |
| zombifier | If Ubuntu is too slow, use X/Lubuntu | 07:28 |
| fidel | i am guessing here - but could it be 12.04 felt slow for you cause of maybe wrong display drivers or a non-perfect Desktop-environment choice? | 07:29 |
| tking0036 | running outdated software is never a good choice.. | 07:29 |
| fidel | cheche: apart fro mthat - having a non-planned shutdown while upgrading sounds like a possible cause for issues | 07:30 |
| cheche | zombifier: done that as well, but X/lubuntu change the look and feel and the user seem lost | 07:30 |
| tking0036 | cheche: Xubuntu would be very minimal transition from a casual gnome user | 07:30 |
| cheche | fidel: i know, but I want to know what triggers to use english locale instead of spanish | 07:30 |
| lotuspsychje | or gnome classic | 07:30 |
| ankur | tking0036, bulletmark , thanks... next time i will do it :) | 07:30 |
| fidel | cheche: happy digging then ;) | 07:31 |
| walruscode | Hey, I messed up my groups yesterday when I was trying to get tor to work (I was being stupid) and did "usermod -G user debian_tor" instead of "usermod -aG user debian_tor". Now, if I try to install something through ubuntu software center or mount a disk by clicking on in in the file browser, it asks for the root password, not mine. Wat do? | 07:31 |
| calston | avelldiroll: the desktop release notes? | 07:31 |
| avelldiroll | cheche: ubuntu default install targets recent hardware, so if you keep the same hardware and the default configuration, things will get slower with each version. So if your hardware is getting old, switching to lubuntu might be a nice option (last time I checked xubuntu default were as ressource ungry as ubuntu-desktop) | 07:31 |

| tking0036 | i personally prefer openbox... but it would be a major transition for a casual gnome user | 07:32 |
| cheche | fidel: that is why I am here to try to find out | 07:32 |
| calston | avelldiroll: that says nothing about the fact that if you switch network config from dhcp to static, that resolv.conf will still keep injecting the old dhcp client nameservers into resolv.conf, that is clearly a bug | 07:32 |
| avelldiroll | tking0036: lxde eases this process | 07:33 |

| jc__ | MonkeyDust: thanks. i don't see my printer in that list. could it be because my computer is connected to my printer via a parrelel-port-to-USB cable? | 07:35 |
| cheche | if I have problems with locale after upgrade. Maybe "rm -r ~/.gconf" can help? | 07:35 |

| jc__ | MonkeyDust: but the funny thing is that the printer is detected via the Printing app | 07:36 |
| MonkeyDust | jc__ try lspci | 07:36 |
| zombifier | It's more recommended that you use 'adduser user group' to add a user to an existing group I don't know if it supports multiple groups at a time) | 07:36 |
| avelldiroll | calston: "that is clearly a bug" ... if you say so ... but you should read the implications of using dnsmasq to manage resolv.conf, just sayin' | 07:37 |

| avelldiroll | angelete2: lm-sensors | 07:46 |
| angelete2 | it's not in common repositories | 07:46 |
| angelete2 | or i can't find it in aptitude, what is the real name of the package? | 07:47 |
| sacarlson | thomasbomb: if telenet is your only option for reasons unknown then best telnet direct man telnet | 07:47 |
| zombifier | angelete2: it is in the repos as lm-sensors. What Ubuntu are you using? | 07:47 |
| thomasbomb | I have to make a script automatically use telnet | 07:47 |
| angelete2 | zombifier: yes, now i can find it, sorry | 07:48 |

| avelldiroll | angelete2: i beg to differ: http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/lm-sensors | 07:48 |
| sacarlson | thomasbomb: so use telnet in a bash script or maybe that's what tcl is I guess | 07:48 |
| thomasbomb | I'm using expect in tcl | 07:49 |
| sacarlson | thomasbomb: best see if telnet works direct before you use it in scripts | 07:49 |
| thomasbomb | But it won't use the commands | 07:49 |
| thomasbomb | Telnet by itself works | 07:49 |

| yinee | Er what different between "sudo apt-get upgrade" and "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"? | 07:54 |
| fidel | if it isnt reported already | 07:54 |
| zombifier | antonio_: if you want the latest kdenlive, then its homepage provides a PPA | 07:54 |
| OerHeks | yinee dist - distribution | 07:55 |
| zombifier | yinee: normal upgrade will upgrade allp packages safely, without removing any, even if there are conflicts | 07:55 |
| OerHeks | antonio_, depends on what the source file is, you want to convert to mpg4 .. it might take more than 1 step to do it. | 07:55 |
| A[D]minS | !amsn | 07:55 |
| smoochict | http://sites.sayakbanerjee.com/paste/ is nice | 07:56 |

| OerHeks | A[D]minS, amsn is not available in Precise | 07:56 |
| antonio_ | I have no clue what is wrong with my version of kdenlive | 07:56 |
| IanWizard-Cloud | I'm on 64-bit, and various times lately, I get errors about :i386 packages not being found, in this case libdirectfb-extras:i386. Any way I can convince it that the package that's there is fine. | 07:56 |
| A[D]minS | OerHeks yea, i was wondering why :) | 07:56 |

| antonio_ | oerheks: so nothing is wrong? Then how do you explain how kdenlive would render files fine like two weeks ago and then all of a sudden it wont render them? | 07:58 |
| OerHeks | antonio_, how would i know ? are those same filetypes? same compression? | 07:59 |
| antonio_ | yep | 08:00 |
| zombifier | yinee: No. Most of the time upgrade and dist-upgrade will do the same job. However, when there are dependency conflicts, then upgrade will try to avoid solving the problem by not upgrading some packages, while dist-upgrade will do whatever it takes to solve the dependencies | 08:00 |
| antonio_ | I did everything exactly as I did before.. | 08:00 |
| antonio_ | and now it just sits and hangs | 08:00 |
| zombifier | so if you're not trying to do anything big, just use upgrade | 08:00 |
| avelldiroll | yinee: upgrade is only allowed to install new versions of already installed packages, dist-upgrade is allowed to install new dependencies, and remove packages in order to resolve conflicts ... i.e. a dist-upgrade will be allowed to install a new package linked to a meta-package, an updated linux kernel is a classic exemple, upgrade won't install it whereas dist-upgrade will | 08:01 |
| OerHeks | avelldiroll update will install an updated kernel too. | 08:01 |
| OerHeks | antonio_, try the ppa from KDENLIVE >> http://www.kdenlive.org/user-manual/downloading-and-installing-kdenlive/pre-compiled-packages/ubuntu-packages | 08:03 |
| yinee | <zombifier> oh I know no wander dist-upgrade download more data than upgrade.thank you | 08:03 |

| zombifier | grendal: what's powerbar? | 08:18 |
| OerHeks | !nounity | 08:19 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.10 uses GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 08:19 |
| grendal | i use to be able to add these apps to the ...bar across the top of the screen | 08:19 |
| avelldiroll | IanWizard-Cloud: rc.local is really to keep for quick and dirty hacks ... the "best practice" is to put a script based on /etc/init.d/skeleton and place it in /etc/init.d/, and then use update-rc.d to manage it correctly (that is the process is a service) | 08:19 |
| pretender | what is the best for hostfile that auto updates and applies the host file system wide | 08:19 |
| MonkeyDust | pretender 'best' depends on your skills and what you prefer | 08:20 |

| ubottu | To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » (this currently may cause problems with multiarch) - See also !automate | 08:31 |

| ActionParsnip | antonio_: read the man page, or look online. You will find more than I can tell you | 08:32 |

| theadmin | yugnay: Please only converse about Ubuntu-related SUPPORT questions. Everything else belongs to either #defocus or #ubuntu-offtopic | 08:38 |
| color | yugnay: please power off your windows 8 phone and put a ubuntu cd in the drive. | 08:38 |
| yugnay | I'm sorry, and I'm a new guy in Linux world ! | 08:38 |

| ManDay | Please tell me quickly: When I use the Install DVD for the Desktop edition of Ubuntu, and I choose "Erase disk and install Ubuntu" - instead of partioning manually - will it create sensible partitions (swap, home, ...) anyway?! | 08:43 |
| c3sso | does somebody know why the themes from .themes aren not shown in appearance panel ? | 08:43 |
| theadmin | ManDay: It normally does, yes | 08:44 |
| ManDay | Anyone? | 08:44 |
| ManDay | theadmin: Thanks! | 08:44 |
| ManDay | theadmin: What's "normally", though? | 08:44 |
| ManDay | ;) | 08:44 |
| color | well thanks all for the good advice and thanks for that ppa i needed, im out | 08:45 |
| zombifier | c3sso: it won't. You must use some tools like Ubuntu Tweak | 08:45 |
| theadmin | ManDay: Well... Given you have a sane amount of disk space? | 08:45 |
| OerHeks | c3sso, make sure you have gnome3 theme for Precise Pangolin. | 08:45 |
| c3sso | nice. is it a bug or is it a feature? | 08:45 |
| theadmin | ManDay: I think it lets you review the partitioning scheme before proceeding, not too sure though (might be confusing Ubiquity and Anaconda here, they're too much alike) | 08:45 |

| color | c3sso: its kinda both. | 08:46 |
| c3sso | I am on fallback mode (actually a fork of it, classic-panel), and works fine | 08:46 |
| steevB | Ive been working on installing ubuntu on one of my other computers and its working fine but I went to reboot and the screen is just black when I start up | 08:46 |
| steevB | has anyone seen this befire | 08:46 |
| zombifier | c3sso: the word FORK is the keyword | 08:47 |
| steevB | Anyone? | 08:48 |
| ManDay | Thanks theadmin, I'll let you know how it will have went. | 08:49 |
| ManDay | steevB: Do you have any other drives attached? | 08:49 |
| steevB | No | 08:49 |
| DJones | steevB: It worked ok during installation? Did it just go black after the 1st reboot | 08:50 |
| steevB | No, it wasnt the first reboot | 08:50 |
| c3sso | well forking gnome control settings... is a bit rude | 08:50 |
| ManDay | steevB: When exactly does it go black? | 08:51 |
| c3sso | but as I have also pached nautilus to behave like it should... | 08:51 |
| steevB | ManDay: It goes black before you even get to the login screen | 08:51 |
| ManDay | steevB: Can you be more specific? | 08:51 |
| steevB | it flashes the ubuntu startup logo for a brief second then goes black | 08:51 |
| steevB | then nothing | 08:51 |
| ManDay | steevB: Inform yourself how to get into SU mode. | 08:52 |
| steevB | ok, will do | 08:52 |

| steevB | I am using an ATI radeon 6550m | 08:52 |

| Fudge | hi earlier on my sound output device was lost, being blind this was a real problem. I needed a sighted person to help me investigate. We found that we had to select headphones again and I got sound back. I was using epiphany-browser and then lost sound. Does anyone have any ideas why this may have happened or had similar experiences. Ubuntu 12.04 unity-2d. Thanks | 08:53 |

| L-Chymera | hi guys, whenever I double-click a text file gnome 3 prompts me to say whether I want it opened ot run.... how do I set the default behaviour to open? | 08:54 |
| theadmin | L-Chymera: I think it's in the Nautilus' settings | 08:54 |
| ActionParsnip | ManDay: the display timings were moved into the kernel, the nomodeset can help for displays that don't like it :) | 08:54 |
| Fudge | L-Chymera nautilus preferences | 08:54 |
| c3sso | to the line where splash is standing. That would start ubuntu the old way with VESA and no kernel mode setting, thus should always work | 08:54 |
| L-Chymera | more precisely maybe? | 08:55 |
| ActionParsnip | Fudge: try: killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.pulse* wait 10 seconds, reboot then retry sound | 08:55 |
| theadmin | ActionParsnip: What's the magic with "wait 10 seconds"? :D | 08:55 |
| Fudge | ActionParsnip thanks its fixed now. I had console sound though it was only in gnome | 08:55 |
| zombifier | L-Chymera: go to menu Edit > Preferences > Behavior | 08:56 |
| Fudge | ActionParsnip I didnt think to remove ~.pulse* though, thats a good idea if it happens again | 08:56 |
| ActionParsnip | theadmin: it lets pulseaudio restart and regenerate the ~/.pulse folder and ~/.pulse-cookie file | 08:56 |
| theadmin | ActionParsnip: Ah... I didn't think it'd auto-respawn | 08:56 |
| Fudge | theadmin that's pulse default behaviour | 08:56 |
| theadmin | Fudge: I don't have pulse installed so I wouldn't know | 08:57 |
| Fudge | theadmin lucky you /etc/pulse/client.conf refers to autospawn | 08:57 |
| Fudge | I can not recall from a text to speech user if alsa is more responsive than pulse, I believe so | 08:58 |
| c3sso | <color>: stangely when I put a theme to /usr/share/themes, it also does not appear in the list. | 08:58 |
| ActionParsnip | theadmin: yes, pulseaudio is required by the OS so is auto-restarted :) | 08:58 |
| theadmin | ActionParsnip: "required by the OS" is a bit of overstatement. | 08:59 |
| theadmin | ActionParsnip: By GNOME is as far as it gets ;) | 08:59 |
| ManDay | Does anyone know by which API applications report progress so that it's displayed as that small progress bar on the side panel? | 08:59 |
| nibbler_ | internet explorer is also required by the os, and so can't be removed ;-) | 08:59 |
| Fudge | nibbler_ isnt that windows? | 08:59 |
| ActionParsnip | theadmin: ys, it gets set to be one of the things to aut-restart if it dies | 08:59 |
| ActionParsnip | theadmin: therefore, required | 09:00 |
| Fudge | theadmin even from cli perspective some things unless built from source dpend on pulse such as speech-dispatcher | 09:00 |
| nibbler_ | Fudge, it is. was just making the reference to another product that makes silly claims about "required by the os" | 09:00 |
| Fudge | oh yep nibbler_ :) | 09:00 |
| ManDay | Why does UBUNTU install QT by default? | 09:00 |
| Fudge | ubuntu-2d is a qt environment isnt it? | 09:00 |
| theadmin | ManDay: I think some of the Ubuntu's apps depend on it... Doesn't the Software Center use Qt? | 09:00 |
| Fudge | or unity-2d how ever you say it | 09:01 |
| nibbler_ | Fudge, and i'm really tempted to reply to manday! ;-) | 09:01 |
| ManDay | theadmin: I wouldn't know. I thought it was all pure Gnome :-/ | 09:01 |
| theadmin | Fudge: I believe Unity uses GTK... Unity is a Gnome shell so using Qt for that would be incredibly weird | 09:01 |
| theadmin | Then again, "incredibly weird" and "default Ubuntu setup" are almost synonymous nowadays. Oh well. | 09:02 |
| zombifier | ManDay: This may be of interest: http://developer.ubuntu.com/resources/technologies/launcher/ | 09:02 |
| ActionParsnip | ManDay: Qt isn't installed by default in the Gnome based ubuntu, you probably installed a Qt based app | 09:02 |
| ActionParsnip | ManDay: k3b is most likely ;) | 09:03 |
| ManDay | ActionParsnip: Certainly not. I have not installed anything. This is as fresh of an Ubuntu installl as possibly possible. | 09:03 |
| theadmin | ActionParsnip: VLC is yet more likely ;) I find many users unaware that it's Qt based. | 09:03 |
| ManDay | ActionParsnip: In fact, I just witnessed on the first boot, how the Update Manager updates QT libs | 09:03 |
| ManDay | Dozens of them! | 09:03 |
| ActionParsnip | theadmin: didn't know that | 09:04 |
| ManDay | I admit I checked "install third party applications" on the setup | 09:04 |
| ManDay | Whatever that means... | 09:04 |
| terminhell | codecs mostly | 09:04 |
| Mrokii | hello. Is there a way to prevent a certain app (or apps) from taking away all CPU-power? So that it doesn't slow down the whole system? | 09:04 |
| theadmin | ManDay: apt-cache whatdepends qt | 09:04 |
| Fudge | has anyone had problems with mp3 cd's burnt in ubuntu playing in cars? I have experienced people saying that cd's dont play and only 1 track is displayed. I wondered if it would have anything to do with the checksum file | 09:04 |
| Zac198969 | Anyone know why I might be getting a black screen after grub screen? it auto selects ubuntu but it never boots up, fresh install 12.04 | 09:04 |
| terminhell | Mrokii: with nice | 09:04 |
| Fudge | naturally the cd players are mp3 capable | 09:04 |
| melodie__ | I give the answer to my own question : moving the packages from the apt/archives directory to the partial sub-directory solves the problem. | 09:05 |
| ActionParsnip | theadmin: apt-cache depends vlc | grep qt yields: libqtcore4 libqtgui4 | 09:06 |
| the_josh | Fudge: You answered me about irssi right ? | 09:06 |
| ActionParsnip | Fudge: did you burn as slowly as possible? | 09:06 |
| Fudge | the_josh no but i would be happy to try and help | 09:06 |
| ActionParsnip | Fudge: not all CD players can play MP3 | 09:06 |
| Fudge | ActionParsnip its happened more than once and no | 09:07 |
| Fudge | ActionParsnip i did state that the cd players in question are mp3 capable and play other disks from other sources | 09:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Fudge: try burning slower | 09:07 |
| Mrokii | terminhell: But wouldn't "nice" slow down the according app all the time, even if it only takes a "usual" amount of CPU-power? My problem is that Opera often seems to slow down the system tremendously, but randomly. So what I am looking for is a way to set some kind of upper limit of how much of the CPU it can use. | 09:07 |
| the_josh | Fudge: Well, I want to have userlist at Right, like other gui clients have in irssi | 09:07 |
| terminhell | dont burn it as a data disk? | 09:07 |
| the_josh | Someone answered me, but then I got disconnected | 09:07 |
| Fudge | oh the_josh i can look at logs | 09:07 |
| the_josh | so, can anyone tell me again : ) | 09:07 |
| the_josh | Okai | 09:07 |
| the_josh | please | 09:07 |
| theadmin | ActionParsnip: Well, it's not surprising. Infact, with the default VLC about window you can see something along these lines: http://i.imgur.com/v4FgP.png?1 | 09:08 |
| the_josh | it was just few mins ago | 09:08 |
| the_josh | Well, if it was my normal client, I would have looked in logs myself | 09:08 |
| ActionParsnip | theadmin: learn something new every day | 09:08 |
| terminhell | Mrokii: right, nice settings will cap specified proc's | 09:08 |
| ManDay | theadmin: Invalid operation whatdepends. | 09:08 |
| Zac198969 | someone help me please im about to rip my freaking hair out | 09:09 |
| theadmin | ManDay: Err: apt-cache stats whatdepends qt | 09:09 |
| ActionParsnip | ManDay: apt-cache depends vlc | grep qt | 09:09 |
| terminhell | Zac198969: whats the prob | 09:09 |
| Mrokii | terminhell: Okay, I will look into that. Thanks. | 09:10 |
| ManDay | theadmin: That doesN't work either... | 09:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Mrokii: setting a negative nice value will give the process more CPU time | 09:10 |
| Zac198969 | I've installed ubuntu on 2 different drives, cant get it to boot on either one, it gets to the grub screen and auto selects ubuntu but black screen after that | 09:10 |
| theadmin | ManDay: Bah, whatever... I'm not too familiar with APT so... | 09:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Zac198969: what GPU do you use? | 09:10 |
| terminhell | Zac198969: sounds like a corrupt iso | 09:10 |
| Zac198969 | ATI 6850 | 09:10 |
| Mrokii | ActionParsnip: I don't need more, I need less. :) | 09:10 |
| ManDay | ActionParsnip: And why would Ubuntu install the Bloody VLC by defautL!? | 09:10 |
| Zac198969 | i've downloaded the iso twice | 09:10 |
| theadmin | ManDay: VLC does not come on Ubuntu by default. | 09:11 |
| ManDay | ActionParsnip: If all, I'd assumed it installed a Gstreamer player or just mplayer | 09:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Mrokii: then set a positove nice value | 09:11 |
| terminhell | Zac198969: it also could be the kernel not loading the right vid driver | 09:11 |
| ManDay | theadmin: Then why did ActionParsnip mention it? | 09:11 |
| ManDay | Are ye'll just trying to confuse me?! | 09:11 |
| ActionParsnip | ManDay: vlc isn't default installed in Ubuntu | 09:11 |
| Zac198969 | What would I do to fix that? | 09:11 |
| ActionParsnip | !info vlc | 09:11 |
| ubottu | vlc (source: vlc): multimedia player and streamer. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0.1-4 (precise), package size 1361 kB, installed size 3370 kB | 09:11 |
| ManDay | ActionParsnip: Then why did you mention it. | 09:11 |
| ActionParsnip | ManDay: its in the universe repo and is optional :) | 09:12 |
| Mrokii | ActionParsnip: Thanks, will try that. | 09:12 |
| Zac198969 | I see a strip of orange flashing at the top of the screen | 09:12 |
| ManDay | Why did you mention it ActionParsnip | 09:12 |
| terminhell | Zac198969: find out what driver you need loaded after grub bootstraps and you may have to manually load it into the intramfs | 09:12 |
| theadmin | ActionParsnip: We're just trying to find out why Qt is installed on the default Ubuntu setup. | 09:12 |
| ManDay | My question was why QT is installed by default | 09:12 |
| ActionParsnip | ManDay: because you said you had Qt installed, we were just working out possible apps you could have installed to pull it in | 09:12 |
| terminhell | Zac198969: at least thats what i had to do to get arch to work | 09:12 |
| ActionParsnip | ManDay: its not default installed | 09:12 |
| ManDay | ActionParsnip: I have no other apps but the ones installed by default. | 09:12 |
| ikonia | ManDay: easy way to find out, try to remove QT and it will tell you what depends on it | 09:12 |
| ManDay | ActionParsnip: My system proves you wrong! | 09:12 |
| Zac198969 | Ouch, not sure how to do all that | 09:12 |

| Booya2332 | hey there | 09:14 |
| Booya2332 | needed some support upgrading to Ubuntu 12.04 | 09:15 |
| mi3 | hello, I would like to download ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64bit ISO from a resumable download mirror, can I get some suggestions please ? | 09:15 |
| theadmin | mi3: Use the torrents | 09:16 |
| zombifier | mi3: torrents | 09:16 |
| ikonia | mi3: it's the application that makes it resumable, not the mirrors | 09:16 |
| Booya2332 | So i have downloaded the ISO file onto 10.04..how do i get it to extract/install? | 09:16 |
| ActionParsnip | !torrent | 09:16 |
| ubottu | Some torrent clients: Transmission (GTK and terminal-based), Deluge-Torrent, Freeloader, BitStormLite, BitTornado-GUI (GTK), KTorrent (KDE), QTorrent (Qt), Azureus/Vuse (Java), !Frostwire (Java), TorrentFlux (web-based), bittornado, rTorrent, cTorrent, bittorrent, aria2 (terminal-based) - FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/help/faq - See also !P2P | 09:16 |
| zombifier | But all Ubuntu mirrors are resumable | 09:16 |
| ActionParsnip | !torrents | 09:16 |
| ubottu | Precise can be torrented from http://torrent.ubuntu.com/simple/precise/desktop/ubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://torrent.ubuntu.com/simple/precise/server/ubuntu-12.04-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your needs. Other flavors can be found at http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969 | 09:16 |
| terminhell | Zac198969: this might be a good start, though the editing of anything on your install will have to be done thru the live cd https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ATI | 09:16 |
| ManDay | Where can I find synaptics or something like that? I want to install gtk3-devel - but I have no clue how to! | 09:16 |
| mi3 | thank you guys ! | 09:16 |
| ikonia | ManDay: it's inthe repo | 09:16 |
| ManDay | Ubuntu used to have a software manager - where is it gone? | 09:16 |
| ManDay | Do I manually need to install aptitude? | 09:17 |
| theadmin | Booya2332: You can't upgrade using the desktop ISO. Only Alternate. Also, use "update-manager -d" in order to upgrade from within the system, that's by far the easiest way. | 09:17 |
| ikonia | ManDay: install synaptics and you can install what you want | 09:17 |
| Yoshi2889 | ManDay: Tried "sudo apt-get install gtk3-devel" | 09:17 |
| ManDay | Ok, CLI it is, then | 09:17 |
| ManDay | Thanks | 09:17 |
| theadmin | ikonia: There's no "s" | 09:17 |
| ikonia | oops | 09:17 |
| ikonia | sorry | 09:17 |
| Fudge | the_josh grep on a 300meg file taking time | 09:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Booya2332: you can mount the alternate ISO in the OS and run the upgrade scrit there, you should be able to also boot to the ISo using USB or CD and upgrade there too, you don't manually extract the ISO | 09:17 |
| terminhell | ManDay: apt-get install gtk3-devel | 09:17 |
| theadmin | ManDay: Synaptic, not synaptics | 09:17 |
| yeats | ManDay: yes aptitude and synaptic are no longer installed by default | 09:17 |
| ikonia | typo | 09:17 |
| Yoshi2889 | Also the Synaptic is available in the Software Centre | 09:17 |
| zombifier | theadmin: You can upgrade using a desktop CD. I may be wrong though | 09:17 |
| ActionParsnip | theadmin: won't that go to Quantal as that is the (d)evelopment release? | 09:17 |
| Bisheey | hi im using kubuntu, and after doing an update, my x-server is running fine while, a kde session refuses to start up it says: klauncher(11753) kdemain: No DBUS session-bus found. Check if you have started the DBUS server., but dbus is running, what do? | 09:18 |
| ManDay | there is no package gtk3-devel :-/ | 09:18 |
| yeats | !info gtk3-dev | 09:18 |
| ubottu | Package gtk3-dev does not exist in precise | 09:18 |
| terminhell | Bisheey: you need dbus installed | 09:18 |
| ActionParsnip | ManDay: try: apt-cache search devel | grep gt | 09:18 |
| Bisheey | terminhell: if its running, i guess it is intsalled | 09:18 |
| theadmin | ActionParsnip: No, since Quantal is not an LTS and IIRC LTS releases are configured to upgrade to LTS by default. On the other hand, the update manager won't see the latest LTS without -d until the last point release (e.g. 12.04.1) is releasd | 09:18 |
| Booya2332 | OK..So i can load it on a USB and upgrade it..cause i just spent 20 minuted downloading it:( | 09:18 |
| terminhell | Bisheey: is your user account added to the dbus group? | 09:18 |
| Yoshi2889 | Anyway I'll try reinstalling GRUB and report back if it works :) | 09:19 |
| ActionParsnip | theadmin: oh yeah, the releases file will keep it at bay, nice one :) | 09:19 |
| Bisheey | terminhell: yup | 09:19 |
| Zac198969 | Okay, so nomodeset worked. Do I just need to install my latest drivers now and it'll be fine or how's that work? | 09:19 |
| Booya2332 | theadmin : So i can load it on a USB and upgrade it..cause i just spent 20 minuted downloading it:( | 09:19 |
| Booya2332 | ?? | 09:19 |
| ManDay | I cannot find the gtk3 devel package?! | 09:20 |
| theadmin | Booya2332: You can only upgrade using the Alternate ISO. Not a desktop one. | 09:20 |
| ikonia | ManDay: it is there, do a search | 09:20 |
| yeats | !info libgtk-3-dev | ManDay | 09:20 |
| ubottu | ManDay: libgtk-3-dev (source: gtk+3.0): development files for the GTK+ library. In component main, is optional. Version 3.4.1-0ubuntu1 (precise), package size 3768 kB, installed size 16045 kB | 09:20 |
| ManDay | ikonia: I AM searching | 09:20 |
| terminhell | Bisheey: not sure man, ive not used kde since 3.5x | 09:20 |
| ManDay | thanks yeats I didnt fnd that | 09:20 |
| Bisheey | terminhell: okay, thanks for trying | 09:20 |
| Booya2332 | theadmin :can i go onto my windows partition and load the ISO from ther? | 09:20 |
| the_josh | Guys, I have downloaded nvidia's new driver for ubuntu with "apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings" | 09:21 |
| the_josh | I also rebooted | 09:21 |
| ManDay | theadmin: You were WRONG | 09:21 |
| the_josh | But it dosn't seems I can increase resolution or anything | 09:21 |
| ManDay | It didn't create a single bloody partition! | 09:21 |
| the_josh | so, heh, I am stucked here | 09:21 |
| the_josh | anything I can do ? | 09:21 |
| ManDay | On a 500 GB device! | 09:21 |
| theadmin | Booya2332: Ugh. Is it the Alternate ISO? If so, you can just do this: sudo mount -o loop Downloads/ubuntu-alternate-blah-blah.iso /mnt | 09:21 |
| terminhell | the_josh: what does xrandr report for resolutions? | 09:21 |
| theadmin | ManDay: Okay... Thanks for the correction, I'll keep that for future reference... That's just silly though | 09:22 |
| the_josh | terminhell: xrandr ? | 09:22 |
| ManDay | It is | 09:22 |
| zombifier | You can create a startup disk for desktop, and choose "Upgrade" at installation | 09:22 |
| terminhell | the_josh: yea, its a command | 09:22 |
| theadmin | ManDay: Well, sorry for the inconvinience. I suppose I confused the Ubuntu installer with something else's... Too many distros I've tried, too little I've really used | 09:23 |
| Zac198969 | So how do i find out the proper video driver to load after launching with nomodeset? | 09:24 |
| terminhell | dont feel too bad theadmin , i dont even use ubuntu, but i help out here anyways, or try to | 09:24 |
| theadmin | terminhell: Same here actually | 09:24 |
| terminhell | Zac198969: until you get the one that works? | 09:24 |
| zombifier | theadmin: Ubuntu Desktop iso only has the feature since about 10.10 or 11.04 | 09:24 |
| Ben64 | i can't ping my laptop which is on 12.04 from my desktop which is on 10.04, does 12.04 have some sort of strange firewall or something | 09:25 |
| theadmin | zombifier: What feature? | 09:25 |
| zombifier | Upgrade from Desktop iso | 09:25 |
| theadmin | zombifier: Oh, huh, I didn't know that was at all possible | 09:25 |
| terminhell | Ben64: you probably need zerconf | 09:25 |
| ikonia | Ben64: someone else was having this problem last night (my time) | 09:25 |
| Zac198969 | terminhell: Is there a list somewhere? I don't know my way around linux when it comes to desktop environments | 09:25 |
| theadmin | Ben64: Nope, it shouldn't have one preconfigured... I mean, yes, ufw and iptables are installed but they're unconfigured (read: disabled) by default | 09:25 |
| the_josh | terminhell: Well, xrandr tells me my current resolution | 09:25 |
| ikonia | ManDay: did you find what QT depended on ? | 09:26 |
| the_josh | terminhell: Which is 800x600 | 09:26 |
| Ben64 | ikonia: you sure same problem? if i start pinging from laptop->desktop, then it starts magically working from desktop->laptop | 09:26 |
| the_josh | Heh, my GFX card is Nvidia Geforce 520 GT | 09:26 |
| terminhell | the_josh: does it list other resolutions? | 09:26 |
| ManDay | ikonia: Not yet, I'm doing another install now, this time without "third party tools" | 09:27 |
| terminhell | the_josh: also, have you rebooted after installing the driver? | 09:27 |
| ikonia | ManDay: I'll check it myself, don't worry | 09:27 |
| ManDay | ikonia: Anyway, what's the korrect cpkg / apt command to find out what depends? | 09:27 |
| zombifier | apt-cache depends | 09:27 |
| ikonia | ManDay: I'd just suggest doing a "remove" on QT and see what the warnings says | 09:27 |
| Ben64 | i can ping other IPs from my laptop without my desktop receiving a response from my laptop, but as soon as i start pinging the desktop, it works | 09:27 |
| ikonia | the depends line won't be %100 solid as it won't show optional depends | 09:28 |
| zombifier | nvm, that was the exact reverse of what you asked for | 09:28 |
| ManDay | theadmin: Here is another corrrection: It seem to have created partitions for swap, but they were just ridiculous | 09:28 |
| theadmin | ManDay: Uh, "ridiculous"? | 09:28 |
| Ben64 | all ports come up as filtered without initiating a connection from the laptop | 09:30 |
| Gummitier | Darf man hier auch deutsch sprechen? | 09:30 |

| the_josh | terminhell: Aye sir | 09:31 |
| the_josh | I did reboot | 09:31 |
| the_josh | terminhell: And it dosn't list other resolutions | 09:31 |
| Gummitier | Ok. Thx | 09:31 |
| ikonia | Ben64: do a sudo iptables -L | 09:31 |
| Ben64 | all blank | 09:32 |
| ikonia | Ben64: someone else had this exact problem before I went to bed | 09:32 |
| Ben64 | ~24hrs ago? | 09:32 |
| theadmin | Ben64: If what ikonia says is true, read stuff at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com and you may find the reply. | 09:32 |
| terminhell | the_josh: does your card come up with lspci? | 09:33 |
| ikonia | Ben64: less than that about 8 hours | 09:34 |
| ikonia | actually about 12 | 09:34 |

| Yoshi2889 | Reinstalling GRUB from the disc worked, thank you! | 09:34 |
| terminhell | *kudos to Yoshi2889 | 09:35 |
| ikonia | Ben64: people where looking at firewalls, routing, name servers etc, it was so random in terms of help I couldn't be bothered getting involved and went to bed | 09:35 |
| Yoshi2889 | One last question: How can I set the "Default" keyring to automatically unlock? It's pretty annoying that I have to enter my password every time | 09:35 |
| theadmin | Yoshi2889: Remove the default keyring's password, that's the only way | 09:36 |
| terminhell | cant | 09:36 |
| theadmin | Yoshi2889: Use "seahorse" to do so. | 09:36 |
| Yoshi2889 | Okay, is that a package available in the repos? | 09:36 |
| theadmin | Yoshi2889: It's a program that should come preinstalled | 09:36 |
| Yoshi2889 | Oh okay, let me check in a moment | 09:36 |
| theadmin | Yoshi2889: IIRC it appears as "Passwords & Encryption Keys" in the menus | 09:36 |
| Yoshi2889 | Yup found it | 09:36 |
| theadmin | Or something along those lines | 09:36 |
| the_josh | terminhell: Aye sir | 09:37 |
| Yoshi2889 | It allows me to change the password but doesn't allow me to unset it it seems | 09:37 |
| wcchandler | this is weird... I updated last night before going to bed. shutdown my machine. boot it up this morning and my desktop looks to have reverted back to what it looked like after a fresh install | 09:37 |
| theadmin | Yoshi2889: Try setting it to an empty one? | 09:37 |
| Yoshi2889 | Oh wait it does nevermind | 09:37 |

| Ben64 | found it, i think | 09:37 |
| Yoshi2889 | Thanks, I set it, let me try logging back in for a moment to check if the dialog box is gone | 09:38 |
| the_josh | terminhell: Any clue ? | 09:38 |
| the_josh | :\ | 09:38 |
| terminhell | the_josh: not doubting the physical install, just seems that the driver isn't loading properly. You may have to blacklist another default vid driver? | 09:38 |
| Yoshi2889 | Yay it's gone :) | 09:39 |
| Yoshi2889 | Thanks! | 09:39 |
| theadmin | !yay | Yoshi2889 | 09:39 |
| ubottu | Yoshi2889: Glad you made it! :-) | 09:39 |
| ManDay | theadmin: It's a few hundred megs, and as I said, the rest is all one big partition for the FS | 09:39 |
| ManDay | ikonia: Did you find out? | 09:39 |
| ManDay | Don't you have a cmd for me, ikonia ? | 09:40 |
| theadmin | ManDay: Oh... That's silly, my swap is normally at least 2G | 09:40 |
| Yoshi2889 | I truly LOVE Ubuntu | 09:40 |
| === Lebby1 is now known as Lebby | ||
| zombifier | Swap is generally the same size as RAM | 09:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoshi2889: try some other distros too :) | 09:40 |
| Yoshi2889 | I had loads of problems with Windows 7 on my laptop (BSODs about page files), installed Ubuntu and all my problems were gone | 09:40 |
| theadmin | zombifier: Well, I think you'll admit that if you have an 8G RAM, having *that* much stop is not cool -- I mean, just how often is that much usually busy? | 09:40 |
| Yoshi2889 | ActionParsnip: I tried Linux Mint and Fedora, but both weren't as stable as Ubuntu is :) | 09:41 |
| zombifier | lol | 09:41 |
| theadmin | s/stop/swap/ | 09:41 |
| theadmin | >.< | 09:41 |
| zombifier | theadmin: If there's a lot of RAM, then we wouldn't be using swap at all, unless we want to hibernate | 09:41 |
| Yoshi2889 | Ubuntu is the only one of three which actually hibernated when I told it to | 09:41 |
| terminhell | Yoshi2889: may your nix adventure be a great one | 09:41 |
| Yoshi2889 | terminhell: Heh, thanks :P | 09:42 |
| Yoshi2889 | Already lovin' it | 09:42 |
| terminhell | heh maybe one day you'll give arch a try :p | 09:42 |
| zombifier | Also, if you have a lot of RAM, set the swapoff value to a very low level | 09:42 |
| zombifier | or whatever it's called | 09:42 |
| terminhell | but i dont recomend it without a few years of 'practice' with something like ubuntu and others first | 09:42 |
| zombifier | oops, swappiness | 09:43 |
| Yoshi2889 | Oh, since you are talking about RAM, I have 8 GB installed and Ubuntu reports 7.6 GB, is that correct? | 09:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoshi2889: mint isn'y a million miles away from Ubuntu, Fedora is a good choice, try Mandriva too or XPUD :D | 09:43 |
| terminhell | Yoshi2889: a portion of ram is set aside, its normal | 09:43 |
| Yoshi2889 | terminhell: Oh, okay :) | 09:43 |
| MrCoder | Word of the day... "modularizing" | 09:43 |
| zombifier | Yoshi2889: That may have to do with the difference between GB and GiB | 09:44 |
| Yoshi2889 | ActionParsnip: I heard good stuff about Mandriva, never heard of XPUD though | 09:44 |
| vampirnata | tbh i hate the new ubuntu desktop | 09:44 |
| theadmin | Yoshi2889: xpud is the ChromeOS of Firefox, lol | 09:44 |
| terminhell | blasphemer! | 09:44 |
| Yoshi2889 | vampirnata: You can install any desktop you like, from what I've tried (and seen lol) | 09:44 |

| vampirnata | Yoshi2889: sure, but the default you get sucks | 09:44 |
| terminhell | get kubunt....nvm | 09:45 |
| vampirnata | kde is also meh | 09:45 |
| Yoshi2889 | vampirnata: I agree that it needs some time getting used to it, hah | 09:45 |

| ActionParsnip | vampirnata: you don't have to use it... | 09:45 |
| Yoshi2889 | vampirnata: When you log in, you can click the Ubuntu logo and select "GNOME Classic" from the menu | 09:45 |
| vampirnata | Yoshi2889: yreally? | 09:45 |
| Yoshi2889 | That boots you into GNOMe 2 | 09:46 |
| Yoshi2889 | I'd say try it :) | 09:46 |
| zombifier | vampirnata: Install gnome-panel for the classic desktop | 09:46 |

| vampirnata | Yoshi2889: what if you have autologin? | 09:46 |

| terminhell | i use gnome-shell, but i spend more time in terminals | 09:47 |
| peetaur | They are both horrible, but you can work around most of it. But in gnome, it's all just missing, not 'needs configuring'. | 09:47 |
| vampirnata | zombifier: wasn't obvious. i looked around last night | 09:47 |

| vampirnata | Yoshi2889: thanks for the tip :) | 09:50 |
| Yoshi2889 | vampirnata: Really? I thought the GNOME Classic was GNOME 2 | 09:50 |
| ActionParsnip | vampirnata: again, you don't have to use unity | 09:50 |
| theadmin | Yoshi2889: It's not, it's just the Fallback mode of Gnome 3 | 09:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoshi2889: gnome2 is not in the repos | 09:50 |
| vampirnata | hmm actually that didn't do it | 09:50 |
| ticho_ | shahriyarguliyev, i can break any debian in less than an hour if that helps | 09:50 |
| vampirnata | still running unity | 09:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoshi2889: its gnome3, just using gnome-panel as the shell | 09:51 |
| zombifier | ManDay: aptitude why packagename should show you nicely why a package is installed | 09:51 |
| terminhell | gnome classic isnt gnome 2, its this weird hybrid of gtk3 without composition effects | 09:51 |
| ikonia | ManDay: yes, but it won't be useful as it won't show optional dependency's if you hang on while I'm installing I'll tell you | 09:51 |
| ActionParsnip | terminhell: you can use gnome-panel with effects | 09:51 |
| Yoshi2889 | vampirnata: That's what I expected | 09:51 |

| terminhell | ticho_: any nix system can be broken with a single command... | 09:51 |
| bazhang | !notunity | vampirnata then dont use it | 09:51 |
| ubottu | vampirnata then dont use it: Ubuntu 11.10 uses GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 09:51 |
| theadmin | Yoshi2889: 11.04 did use Gnome 2 indeed | 09:51 |
| shahriyarguliyev | bazhang: stop dazzling on me, I do not flood! | 09:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoshi2889: in Oneiric and later, it is all gnome3, you can use gnome panel and it will look like Gnome2 but it is all made using GTK3 | 09:52 |

| shahriyarguliyev | My question is not ubuntu related. bazhang may ban me out of here | 09:55 |
| ticho_ | shahriyarguliyev, better do it here if admins will allow, otherwise you may get bad support in pm | 09:55 |
| Yoshi2889 | Oh by the way, is there some way I can add the fade-out closing effect to opening in reverse? | 09:55 |
| ikonia | shahriyarguliyev: then don't ask it in here, find the correct channel eg: #gentoo for gentoo questions etc | 09:55 |
| theadmin | Yoshi2889: Cinnamon = GNOME Shell with a classic look, MATE = Gnome 2. Not similar at all. | 09:56 |
| ActionParsnip | shahriyarguliyev: just ask and the channel will reply | 09:56 |
| shahriyarguliyev | lol I don't want to flood. If someone has 8 more year linux experience, tell me | 09:56 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip: they won't - it's not an ubuntu question as he's said | 09:56 |
| d1rkp1tt | shahriyarguliyev, Your flooding now, just ask yur questions | 09:57 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: could give him a single chance, to see what is asked, then move? | 09:57 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip: he's said it's not an ubuntu question, so take it to the correct channel | 09:57 |
| terminhell | i do shahriyarguliyev | 09:57 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: makes sense | 09:57 |
| ActionParsnip | shahriyarguliyev: if its ubuntu based, ask here. Generic Linux questions will be fielded in #linux | 09:58 |
| Yoshi2889 | Is it possible to add the fading out effect in reverse when opening windows? | 09:58 |
| terminhell | shahriyarguliyev: pm me your question | 09:58 |
| shahriyarguliyev | terminhell: Can I ask you certain questions in pm? I'm Mac OS admin, just seeking for best linux like mac os kernel..so i need some advice,..can u ? | 09:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoshi2889: check in the animations setting in ccsm | 09:58 |
| terminhell | shahriyarguliyev: ill try | 09:59 |
| r00t__ | huhu | 09:59 |
| Yoshi2889 | ActionParsnip: Okay | 09:59 |
| ActionParsnip | shahriyarguliyev: the mac kernel is different to linux | 09:59 |
| d1rkp1tt | So my Network Connection cant be edited... can anyone help? | 09:59 |
| terminhell | FreeBSD, since osX is bsd based shahriyarguliyev | 09:59 |
| Yoshi2889 | ActionParsnip: I don't really get what I have to change now, I'm in the Effects menu, the opening and closing look almost identical | 10:01 |
| d1rkp1tt | Ubuntu forum doesnt work with Ubuntu chrome.. | 10:01 |
| d1rkp1tt | Stink | 10:01 |
| terminhell | firefox is better these days, imho | 10:02 |
| leckey | d1rkp1tt: works fine for me | 10:03 |
| ironm | does anyone of you run interface bonding on ubuntu 12.04? | 10:03 |
| ikonia | ironm: on other ubuntu version yes, not 12.04 specicically | 10:04 |
| d1rkp1tt | leckey, you can post? | 10:04 |
| Yoshi2889 | ActionParsnip: Nevermind, I got it, thanks :) | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoshi2889: or you could ask in #compiz it's not something I know a lot about as I don't use it | 10:05 |
| ironm | ikonia, may I ask if you had to install "ifenslave"? | 10:05 |
| ikonia | ironm: no, I didn't | 10:06 |
| d1rkp1tt | The forums are terrible... they keep logging me out in either browser | 10:06 |
| d1rkp1tt | Its enough to make getting support really difficult | 10:06 |
| ironm | ikonia, than it looks that I am missing something. I can see the bond0 interface (with IP-address) but can't ping the default gateway (only one cable in the switch for the test) | 10:07 |
| d1rkp1tt | I been using Ubuntu since 8.04 and I really feel like abandoning it now | 10:07 |
| ActionParsnip | d1rkp1tt: have you made a new user to test if your settings are bad? | 10:07 |
| busfahrer | Excuse me, in 12.04, is there something I can do with my mouse that does the same as hitting Super+W? (preview/expose all windows) | 10:07 |
| ironm | ikonia, may I ask how your config looks like? (/etc/networking/interfaces and /etc/modules or /etc/modeprobe.d/bonding.conf) | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | busfahrer: you can assign hot-corners in compiz | 10:08 |
| d1rkp1tt | Fix my user in the forum before I can fix this problem with my OS? lol | 10:08 |
| njallam | Hi | 10:08 |
| busfahrer | ActionParsnip: Do I need extra software for that? | 10:08 |
| njallam | Trying my luck in the dev comp | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | d1rkp1tt: its just to test, why is that funny? | 10:08 |
| ikonia | ironm: I do'nt have one to hand here sadly as I'm not on a network with ubuntu machines on | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | busfahrer: its part of the compiz install.. | 10:08 |
| riktking | hi im tryingt oget alien arena setup on my server but cant seem to find a simple walkthru can anyone help me? | 10:08 |
| leckey | on second thought d1rkp1tt, I can't log in :P | 10:08 |
| d1rkp1tt | ActionParsnip, Just funny because I feel like I am jumping through hoops to configure an IP address | 10:08 |
| ironm | ikonia, thanks a lot for your answer anyway :) | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | d1rkp1tt: are you wanting to use static IP? | 10:09 |
| jpds | ActionParsnip: He's confusing forum user vs. system user. | 10:09 |
| ikonia | ironm: I do know I have had this discussion about ifenslave before with someone else and my config never used it and he couldn't get it to work | 10:09 |
| jpds | d1rkp1tt: Create a new user account on your system and see if you can create a network connection there. | 10:09 |
| d1rkp1tt | Yes, but /etc/networking/interfaces has no affect, and I am locked out of edit network connections. MY DNS also keeps getting over written | 10:09 |
| ActionParsnip | d1rkp1tt: should do, are you configuring it right? | 10:10 |
| ikonia | d1rkp1tt: you should not be using /etc/networking/interfaces if you are using network manager | 10:10 |
| terminhell | d1rkp1tt: is your user in the network group? | 10:10 |
| d1rkp1tt | ikonia, I cant use network manager | 10:10 |
| ironm | ikonia, I have used interface bonding on debian sid without ifenslave and it worked .. howerver the same config doesn't work on ubuntu 12.04 | 10:10 |
| d1rkp1tt | Checking | 10:10 |
| ikonia | ironm: as I recall it was slightly different than debian setup, but it still worked without ifenslave | 10:10 |
| terminhell | d1rkp1tt: specifically the network & networkmanager groups | 10:11 |
| d1rkp1tt | I dont have a network group | 10:11 |
| ActionParsnip | d1rkp1tt: if you can pastebin the interfaces file, we can advise. | 10:11 |
| terminhell | there ya go... | 10:11 |
| d1rkp1tt | or networkmanager group | 10:11 |
| ironm | thank you ikonia .. I have to play more with the setting around | 10:11 |
| jpds | terminhell: No such thing. | 10:11 |
| terminhell | d1rkp1tt: you'll need to add your user to those 2 groups | 10:12 |
| jpds | terminhell: Hi, there are no such groups. | 10:12 |
| terminhell | jpds: what? | 10:12 |
| ActionParsnip | terminhell: my groups are: $USER adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare and I can usenetwork manager just fine... | 10:12 |
| c3sso | does anybody know how to atomatically add a new user to a group, when creation that user? | 10:13 |
| d1rkp1tt | I dont think those groups exist | 10:13 |
| ironm | ikonia, can you remember if you have modified only interfaces or also other files like /etc/modules or /etc/modprobe.d/bonding.conf ? | 10:13 |
| ikonia | ironm: I had to play with bonding.conf, I do remember that | 10:13 |
| terminhell | they exists, i guess ubuntu handles things differently | 10:13 |
| ikonia | ironm: that set the bonding mode etc | 10:13 |
| ikonia | terminhell: they do'nt exist in ubuntu | 10:13 |
| ironm | ikonia, yes | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | c3sso: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-linux-add-user-to-group/ | 10:14 |
| terminhell | ikonia: weird, i wonder how it handles things then | 10:14 |
| ikonia | terminhell: what things ? | 10:14 |
| ActionParsnip | terminhell: then how can I use net manager ok without being in the groups you mentioned? | 10:14 |
| terminhell | i dont know, thats my point now | 10:15 |
| d1rkp1tt | http://pastebin.com/6RSDZ3UY | 10:15 |
| d1rkp1tt | interfaces | 10:15 |
| terminhell | i guess im just not used to the hand holding of other distros, but i digress, lets see if we can figure this out | 10:15 |
| jpds | d1rkp1tt: No 'auto eth0' ? | 10:16 |
| ikonia | terminhell: what are you talking about, you're just making up random permissions and groups rather than antthing that's actually relevent to ubuntu or other modern distros | 10:16 |
| c3sso | ActionParsnip: shure, but what I want is that when I create a new user (on commandline or through gnome gui), that it gets added to a group automatically | 10:16 |
| ActionParsnip | d1rkp1tt: you forgot to add: auto eth0 | 10:16 |
| alo21 | hi all | 10:17 |
| nuketro0p3r | hello | 10:17 |
| ActionParsnip | d1rkp1tt: echo "auto eth0" | sudo tee -a /etc/network/interfaces > /dev/null | 10:17 |
| alo21 | I have a problem with python library | 10:18 |
| terminhell | c3sso: man useradd | 10:18 |
| c3sso | will try | 10:18 |
| ActionParsnip | c3sso: i believe it's: sudo useradd -G admin newusername for example | 10:18 |
| ActionParsnip | c3sso: but check with the man page | 10:18 |
| alo21 | I installed a library, but python can not find it | 10:19 |
| terminhell | alo21: check your environment paths | 10:20 |
| kushal_kumaran | alo21: how did you install the library, and what error do you get? | 10:21 |
| ManDay | ikonia: Found something? | 10:21 |
| c3sso | doing it manually is no problem, but getting a new user added to a group seems to be altered in some config file | 10:21 |
| c3sso | autiomatically | 10:22 |
| terminhell | -,^ | 10:22 |
| ikonia | ManDay: install just finished and it's rebooting post install | 10:22 |
| ikonia | ManDay: bit slow as it's on a vm | 10:22 |
| ManDay | On an unrelated problem: How can I get thE ATI driver to work? I've used "jokey" additional driver sources to select FGLRX - but after a reboot it's still not used?! | 10:22 |
| ManDay | On a note, I can very much understand how any user new to Ubuntu gets frustrated to no end if this happens to him/her... | 10:23 |
| alo21 | terminhell: how? | 10:23 |
| alo21 | kushal_kumaran: I installed it via synaptic and I did not get any error | 10:23 |
| ActionParsnip | ManDay: its a new OS, it's natural. I found the same with Windows7 | 10:24 |
| ManDay | ActionParsnip: A new OS? What? | 10:24 |
| ManDay | What are you talking about? | 10:24 |
| d1rkp1tt | jpds, That worked... thanks | 10:25 |
| terminhell | alo21: with that package specifically, not sure | 10:25 |
| kushal_kumaran | alo21: so it's a debian package? which one? might you be installing a python2 module and attempting to use it with python3 (or your custom python build)? | 10:25 |
| ManDay | I had to manually edit my xorg.conf now, ActionParsnip - I don't think this can be put onto any normal user - it basically defies the whole point of "jockey" | 10:26 |
| ManDay | rebooting | 10:26 |
| ActionParsnip | ManDay: new users to Ubuntu will get frustrated, it's normal | 10:26 |
| alo21 | kushal_kumaran: I downloaded the source from the website | 10:26 |
| ManDay | ActionParsnip: Yes, by stuff like that | 10:26 |
| ManDay | Ubuntu had "Additional Drivers" for years | 10:27 |
| ikonia | ManDay: a lot of it is for unity 2d | 10:27 |
| alo21 | kushal_kumaran: I run ./configure then make and then make install | 10:27 |
| ManDay | It's hard to believe it's STILL not working with famous drivers such as fglrx | 10:27 |
| alo21 | kushal_kumaran: sorry | 10:27 |
| ikonia | ManDay: there appears to be some app menu stuff that also depends on QT | 10:27 |
| === k1l_ is now known as k1l | ||
| alo21 | kushal_kumaran: I make a mistake | 10:27 |
| ManDay | ikonia: ok, brb | 10:27 |
| d1rkp1tt | yall like unity? | 10:27 |
| ikonia | ManDay: the ATI components are well known to be hit and miss | 10:27 |
| alo21 | kushal_kumaran: I do not know if is a debian package I installed that module via synaptic... so I suppose yes | 10:28 |
| kushal_kumaran | alo21: a bit confused: did you build python by hand using configure and make? If so, python libraries installed using debian packages will not be found by that python. | 10:29 |
| ActionParsnip | mandel: works great with nvidia, never had a single issue since gutsy | 10:30 |
| ManDay | I added a "Device" section with driver "fglrx" - now Ubuntu freezes in the purple splash screen on boot... | 10:30 |
| ManDay | Any idea why? | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | mandel: did you follow the proprietary driver guide>? | 10:30 |
| mandel | ActionParsnip, wrong autocomplete ;) I guess you ment ManDay | 10:30 |
| alo21 | kushal_kumaran: yes. To install python 2.7, I did it by hand | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | mandel: gah | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | ManDay: works great with nvidia, never had a single issue since gutsy | 10:31 |
| ActionParsnip | mandel: cheers ;) | 10:32 |
| mandel | ActionParsnip, no problem, happens to me lots | 10:32 |
| kushal_kumaran | alo21: then you need to install python libraries using python's mechanisms (such as running pip install <library>), rather than debian packages. | 10:33 |
| Yoshi2889 | Hey again guys, had to get rid of Pidgin as it was acting horribly | 10:35 |
| Yoshi2889 | Anyway, yet another question (lol) | 10:35 |
| kushal_kumaran | alo21: make sure to use your custom python when installing libraries, so you don't step on debian-owned files (virtualenv is extremely useful in such cases: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv) | 10:35 |
| ManDay | ikonia: Can unity 2d be disabled? | 10:36 |
| ikonia | ManDay: it's not in use by default | 10:36 |
| ikonia | ManDay: it's a fall back | 10:36 |
| ManDay | ikonia: but it's installed anyway | 10:36 |
| ActionParsnip | ManDay: just use a different shell, or DE | 10:36 |
| ikonia | yes, it's a fall back | 10:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Unity2D is awesome, all the goodness of Unity without Compiz screwing stuff up | 10:37 |
| ManDay | bbl | 10:37 |
| Yoshi2889 | Ugh Empathy crashed | 10:37 |
| Yoshi2889 | Anyway | 10:37 |
| Yoshi2889 | Whenever I try to log out, my laptop hangs and I need to restart it | 10:38 |
| alo21 | kushal_kumaran: maybe I should install python debian package | 10:38 |
| Yoshi2889 | What may be causing this? | 10:38 |
| terminhell | dbus comes to mind | 10:39 |
| Yoshi2889 | terminhell: To whom are you talking? | 10:39 |
| terminhell | you, sorry Yoshi2889 | 10:39 |
| Yoshi2889 | Oh | 10:39 |
| Yoshi2889 | Heh | 10:39 |
| Yoshi2889 | What may be wrong with dbus? | 10:39 |
| alo21 | kushal_kumaran: how can I remove python 2.7 if I installed it by hand? | 10:40 |
| kushal_kumaran | alo21: debian stable has python2.6, testing has python2.7 | 10:40 |
| terminhell | depending on the DE your using, it may be required by certain functions of that DE | 10:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoshi2889: if you press CTRL+ALT+F1 and run: ps -U $USER -u $USER u | 10:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoshi2889: what is still running? | 10:40 |
| alo21 | kushal_kumaran: does not matter | 10:40 |
| Yoshi2889 | Spotify, Empathy and probably Firefox | 10:40 |
| Yoshi2889 | @ActionParsnip | 10:41 |
| nuketro0p3r | What is the default permission for the /home/ folder ? | 10:41 |
| nuketro0p3r | I think I screwed it up accidentally | 10:41 |
| kushal_kumaran | alo21: might not be a straightforward way, you might have to go snooping around in /usr/local for files installed by make install | 10:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoshi2889: ok, run: killall -u $USER and you should be able to log back in | 10:41 |
| terminhell | nuketro0p3r: 755? | 10:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Yoshi2889: if you relogin and run those apps, then close them and log off. Is it ok? | 10:42 |
| nuketro0p3r | Is it 755? | 10:42 |
| alo21 | kushal_kumaran: ok... thanks a lot | 10:42 |
| nuketro0p3r | @terminhell: should I execute chmod -755 /home/ ? | 10:43 |
| === mitch is now known as Guest90984 | ||
| terminhell | nuketro0p3r: justa sec | 10:44 |
| The_Intel | Well, without doing sudo can I do apt-get ? | 10:44 |
| The_Intel | I am admin, but say I don't want to do sudo | 10:44 |
| Yoshi2889 | Okay that got me to a black screen with which I couldn't do anything | 10:44 |
| Yoshi2889 | Well log in and type | 10:44 |
| nuketro0p3r | The_Intel: I don't think you can | 10:44 |
| The_Intel | nuketro0p3r, Once I have accessed a remote computer with ssh in which I did apt-get | 10:45 |
| The_Intel | I was not even admin | 10:45 |
| The_Intel | I wondered how | 10:45 |
| terminhell | nuketro0p3r: are you talking about /home or /home/user? | 10:45 |
| The_Intel | Well, That program was installed only for me | 10:45 |
| nuketro0p3r | terminhell: /home | 10:45 |
| The_Intel | nevermind, How do I install a certain specific software just for me ? | 10:45 |
| nuketro0p3r | The_Intel: Install it in your home directory :D | 10:46 |
| The_Intel | Oh. | 10:46 |
| nuketro0p3r | and set persmissions | 10:46 |
| Yoshi2889 | Could you please repeat the command you gave me? (sorry I don't have the contact list anymore here....) | 10:46 |
| nuketro0p3r | so that noone except you can access that folder | 10:46 |
| terminhell | nuketro0p3r: 700 | 10:46 |
| nuketro0p3r | terminhell: Okay ty :) | 10:46 |
| terminhell | nuketro0p3r: /home/user would be 755 | 10:47 |
| nuketro0p3r | terminhell: I changed it to 750 :D | 10:47 |
| nuketro0p3r | terminhell: home/user | 10:47 |
| terminhell | nuketro0p3r: if thats what you want haha | 10:47 |
| nuketro0p3r | terminhell: will adjust /home now. Thanks for the help | 10:48 |

| Yoshi2889 | Which reminds me that I need to install it | 10:53 |
| bipul | Yoshi2889: Use Vim or Gedit if you are Beginners Like me | 10:53 |
| Yoshi2889 | bipul: I tried Gedit but didn't work for me. I usually write big scripts and having to press TAB every time doesn't help with that | 10:54 |
| Yoshi2889 | Thanks for the tip though | 10:54 |

| ActionParsnip | OODavo: what netbook? | 10:59 |
| ActionParsnip | OODavo: 3.4 kernel isn't supported in Precise | 10:59 |
| OODavo | A Lenovo. S10e, if I recall correctly. | 11:00 |
| OODavo | This one: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.4-precise/ | 11:00 |
| hichamat | bipul Im using it for 4gb usb flash drive : (6 min and still), it's normal ? | 11:00 |
| ActionParsnip | OODavo: its not supported here | 11:00 |
| OODavo | Right. The same problem exists under the current 3.2 kernel, however? | 11:01 |
| Mandalord | OODavo: do you have swap partition, since i saw many people cannot suspend without swap | 11:01 |
| ActionParsnip | OODavo: what netbook? | 11:02 |
| ActionParsnip | OODavo: is your swap partition encrypted? | 11:02 |
| OODavo | There's no swap partition, since it's a Wubi install, but suspend was working up until a recent update (I'm not certain which, unfortunately). | 11:02 |
| MonkeyDust | wubi :( | 11:02 |
| cvr | they should just get rid of wubi | 11:03 |
| OODavo | That would be rather inconvenient, since I can't perform a non-Wubi install on the system. | 11:04 |
| mithran | i cant configure a network printer installed in widows plat form | 11:04 |
| mithran | showing the status "Processing - Unable to connect to CIFS host after (tried 3 times)" | 11:05 |
| Mandalord | OODavo: well just my thought: you should uninstall ubuntu and do some fresh install, since wubi cause a lot of bugs and troubles | 11:05 |
| OODavo | Mandalord: Perhaps I do need to. That's really annoying, though. :P | 11:06 |
| cdavis | Everytime I start Firefox from a previous graceful system shutdown it thinks that it has crashed | 11:06 |
| Mandalord | OODavo: wish you luck:D | 11:06 |
| Mandalord | cdavis: how about remove firefox and reinstall | 11:07 |
| mynameisthom | hello, i need to know about setting nomodeset in boot options | 11:08 |
| mithran | i want to configure a network based windows printer? | 11:09 |
| mithran | showing the status "Processing - Unable to connect to CIFS host after (tried 3 times)" | 11:09 |
| compdoc | mynameisthom, it can help with the video sometimes. what problem are you having? | 11:09 |
| The_Intel | I have, traditional 1 green panel , 1 red and 1 blue panel on my Realtek soundcard | 11:10 |
| mithran | can you help me | 11:10 |
| mithran | showing the status "Processing - Unable to connect to CIFS host after (tried 3 times)" | 11:10 |
| The_Intel | I can get output from green panal | 11:10 |
| The_Intel | I also can input from red input panal | 11:10 |
| mithran | it showing the status "Processing - Unable to connect to CIFS host after (tried 3 times)" | 11:10 |
| The_Intel | Although, I cannot get output from blue panel | 11:10 |
| mithran | anybody knows about it | 11:10 |
| mithran | anybody knows about it? | 11:10 |
| The_Intel | which I do in Windows, since I have realtek hd audio manager | 11:10 |
| The_Intel | Can someone kindly tell me what I can do. | 11:11 |
| mynameisthom | compdoc: nothing, someone help me out of my prob, and suggested to add nomodeset to bootoption. And when I confirmed what 'nomodeset' is for, he was not answered.. | 11:11 |
| The_Intel | I suppose, I need to configure digital sound for that | 11:11 |
| The_Intel | But I do not see any such option :\ | 11:11 |
| mithran | i am using a network printer | 11:11 |
| mithran | can you help me | 11:11 |
| compdoc | mynameisthom, people use it when they have a problem booting like cannot see the video | 11:11 |
| yeats | mithran: you've installed samba? | 11:12 |
| mithran | it ya | 11:12 |
| mithran | yeats: yas | 11:12 |
| compdoc | mynameisthom, otherwise, its of no use | 11:12 |
| yeats | mithran: and you used the "add printer" feature to find it on the network, select a driver, etc? | 11:13 |
| mynameisthom | compdoc: yeah,, it was because of my video prob. http://i.imgur.com/oczVU.png What if I enable compiz when 'nomodeset' is set? | 11:13 |
| mernilio | Greetings fellow linux users, developers and kernelguys! ;-) | 11:14 |
| compdoc | mynameisthom, try it | 11:14 |
| mernilio | translators and girlfriends! | 11:15 |
| mithran | yeats: i tried that way but showing the result in "Processing - Unable to connect to CIFS host after (tried 3 times)" | 11:16 |
| mernilio | thats one of the things we miss in the linux world. Girlfriends! | 11:16 |
| mithran | yeats: wat Shall i Do? | 11:16 |
| The_Intel | Help me too, please :) | 11:16 |
| OODavo | Right, I find that suspending also doesn't work under 3.2 /and/ 3.0. It used to. I do not know what's going wrong. :| | 11:17 |
| Dawn262 | lol | 11:17 |
| mernilio | Did you knew Linus wife is a third times karate world champion! Thats pretty impressing! | 11:17 |

| lmg_ | I accidentally deleted /bin/bash while attempting to point /bin/sh to it and not /bin/dash. How can I fix that? sudo aptitude reinstall bash won't work | 11:18 |
| mernilio | For me at least. Im pretty easy impressed of just about everything.. ;-) | 11:18 |
| zzippy | hi all | 11:18 |
| mernilio | zzippy: hello my new friend! | 11:18 |
| geirha | lmg_: make sure /bin/sh is pointing to a shell | 11:19 |
| lmg_ | It is. | 11:19 |
| lmg_ | It is pointing to dash | 11:19 |
| MonkeyDust | mernilio type /join #ubuntu-offtopic, it's more what you want | 11:19 |
| geirha | lmg_: Hm. What error is aptitude giving you then? | 11:19 |
| lmg_ | To make things clear, I'm still on the system, using bash. I think that's why it fails. | 11:19 |
| lmg_ | Let me paste it | 11:19 |
| mernilio | MonkeyDust: thanks! I think you are right! :-) | 11:20 |
| yeats | mithran: I would look in /var/log/samba/ for more detailed error messages. If that doesn't help, you might ask in #samba | 11:20 |
| geirha | lmg_: I suggest you change your login shell to dash (or some other shell you may have installed) until you've reinstalled bash. | 11:20 |
| mithran | yeats: ok thanks | 11:21 |
| === ankur is now known as aum | ||
| lmg_ | How can I make sure it is the case? | 11:21 |
| lmg_ | Will it default to /bin/sh if /bin/bash doesn't exist? | 11:21 |
| geirha | lmg_: On a side note, there's nothing to gain from using bash as sh | 11:21 |
| geirha | lmg_: run chsh | 11:21 |
| lmg_ | I need it to be able to run a thing called buildroot. | 11:21 |
| bipul | when i am trying to make a new user from the command useradd u1 then my default i am getting /bin/sh shell through which i am unable to login with account u1 in graphical mode | 11:22 |
| The_Intel | Well, does anybody knows how to get realtek hd manager for ubuntu ? | 11:22 |
| === aum is now known as aum_ | ||
| The_Intel | Or, how to get output from blue panel | 11:22 |
| geirha | lmg_: Then buildroot is broken and should be fixed instead of hacking around it like that. | 11:22 |
| zzippy | ..can someone have look at a manually edited xorg.conf for nvidia? X doesn't start, I cannot see the mistake I made.. | 11:22 |
| geirha | bipul: Don't use useradd, use adduser instead | 11:22 |
| lmg_ | geirha, Okay, i'll have a problem there: aptitude doesn't want to install anything else, since installing bash failed. It now talks about a lock file. I tried removing it, but I think I just made things worse. | 11:23 |
| lmg_ | :D | 11:23 |
| lmg_ | And csh isn't installed. | 11:23 |
| lmg_ | chsh | 11:23 |
| lmg_ | wait | 11:23 |
| lmg_ | I was typing csh | 11:23 |
| lmg_ | -_- | 11:23 |
| FloodBot1 | lmg_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 11:23 |
| lmg_ | Well, I'll try to reboot. I'll let you know how it goes. | 11:24 |
| mynameisthom | compdoc: it was a 'wow' :D *crashed* Revert back :) | 11:24 |
| bipul | what is the diffrence between useradd, and adduser ? | 11:25 |
| compdoc | mynameisthom, you added nomodeset and then updated grub? | 11:25 |
| Mandalord | man useradd and man adduser | 11:25 |
| bipul | in rhel when i am trying to use useradd my default it alocate /bin/bash shell but in ubuntu /bin/sh | 11:25 |
| jpds | bipul: adduser is a wrapper for useradd. | 11:25 |
| jpds | bipul: Yes. | 11:26 |
| jpds | bipul: And /bin/sh -> dash | 11:26 |
| compdoc | mynameisthom, after it boots, can you see the video properly? | 11:26 |
| bipul | jpds: /bin/sh can you tell me the characteristic of /bin/sh shell | 11:26 |
| geirha | bipul: adduser adds the right set of groups and sets your login shell for you etc | 11:26 |
| jpds | bipul: It's a pointer to /bin/dash | 11:27 |
| Havelin | Anyone know why all the menu's to my apps I run have vanished? Like "file" "edit" "view" and of the sort | 11:27 |
| geirha | bipul: based on the configuration in /etc/adduser.conf | 11:27 |
| bipul | jpds: ok thank's | 11:27 |
| metulburr | i acc did the command sudo chmod 700 / is there a way to reclaim root privelges? | 11:27 |
| jpds | bipul: http://wiki.debian.org/Shell | 11:28 |
| mynameisthom | compdoc: yep.. with metacity. And everything is just fine r8 now, but compiz :D When I enable compiz, it was crashed. The monitor is flicking. So, I just revert to metacity.. | 11:28 |
| lmg_ | Okay, so it doesn't want to reinstall bash. Let me paste the output somewhere | 11:28 |

| lmg_ | Here you go. | 11:29 |
| === aum_ is now known as aum__ | ||
| lmg_ | Apparently it's missing some preremoval script that I never deleted | 11:29 |
| geirha | lmg_: Do those scripts exist, e.g. ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info/bash.rerm | 11:30 |
| geirha | lmg_: err, lost a p there | 11:31 |
| lmg_ | Yep it does. | 11:31 |
| === aum__ is now known as aum_ | ||
| geirha | lmg_: Ah, I see it on this ubuntu system here. It's a bash script, but since /bin/bash doesn't exist ... | 11:32 |
| lmg_ | Do you think replacing #!/bin/bash by #!/bin/sh would work? | 11:32 |
| lmg_ | Or are specific features of bash used? | 11:32 |
| geirha | lmg_: The code is compatible with sh, so yes, that might work. | 11:32 |
| lmg_ | Let me try that. | 11:32 |
| lmg_ | Oh god dash is annoying to use | 11:33 |
| bipul | lmg_: can i see the Log | 11:33 |
| geirha | lmg_: It's designed to be lightweight, no tab-completion or other unnecessary stuff :) | 11:33 |
| Mandalord | lmg_: shell sh and shell bash are all the same, just a tradition from UNIX | 11:33 |
| morsnowski | lmg_, you could install bash from source | 11:34 |
| geirha | Mandalord: No they're not | 11:34 |
| jrib | Mandalord: sh is dash on ubuntu by default | 11:34 |
| lmg_ | I think it worked. | 11:34 |
| === aum_ is now known as aum__ | ||
| lmg_ | Mandalord, that's not true. | 11:34 |
| lmg_ | geirha, I know that by that's when you realize how even lacking history is painful | 11:34 |
| Mandalord | huh? I think /bin/sh point to /bin/bash | 11:34 |
| geirha | lmg_: You'll probably want to chsh back to /bin/bash then :) | 11:34 |
| jrib | Mandalord: not by default... | 11:34 |
| jpds | Mandalord: Do: ls -l /bin/sh | 11:35 |
| === aum__ is now known as aum_ | ||
| lmg_ | Mandalord, read the log of the chan if you want, you'll understand why I'm having this problem, and how /bin/sh doesn't always point to bash :D | 11:35 |
| geirha | Mandalord: Even when /bin/sh points to bash, it behaves differently | 11:35 |
| lmg_ | geirha, yep. I'll do that and reboot, thanks for the help ! | 11:35 |
| sacarlson | Mandalord: I guess I changed my defaults lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2012-05-02 14:53 /bin/sh -> bash | 11:36 |
| bipul | sacarlson: 4 indicated links of file | 11:37 |
| bipul | ? | 11:37 |
| geirha | bipul: No, that's the size of the symlink. b + a + s + h = 4 | 11:37 |
| bipul | geirha: thanks you have any link so that i can get more on this topic | 11:38 |
| lmg_ | Okay, it worked :) | 11:38 |
| geirha | bipul: the output of ls is explained in ls's documentation. info coreutils ls | 11:40 |
| geirha | bipul: http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/ls-invocation.html | 11:40 |
| bipul | geirha: thank's | 11:41 |
| Mandalord | ah so bash and dash are not the same, sr for bothering... | 11:41 |
| bipul | geirha: but this pice of information i can get in man page also | 11:42 |
| jrib | bipul: sadly, no | 11:42 |
| bipul | jrib: ? | 11:42 |
| jrib | bipul: compare for yourself :) | 11:42 |

| busfahrer | Hi. I'm on 12.04. I've used CompizConfig to set it so when I touch the bottom right corner, compiz exposes all windows in a preview, so I can pick one of them.

| lokai | Why doesn't my nvidia card work on latest ubuntu 12.04? I've installed nvidia-current (It is a recent card), but running nvidia-settings after reboot tells me to run nvidia-xconf, which in turn breaks my xorg (after reboot) | 11:51 |

| wookienz_ | in bash how do i read a singl character out of a file? | 11:52 |
| compdoc | apparently, nvidia does provide decent drivers | 11:52 |
| lokai | I've got an on-chip gpu and a discrete cpu, could that have something to do with it? | 11:52 |
| compdoc | *does not | 11:52 |
| wookienz_ | or just first line...it will only contain one number | 11:52 |
| lokai | yeah they do. | 11:53 |
| lokai | they are just closed | 11:53 |
| lokai | never had a problem with their drivers before. | 11:53 |
| compdoc | you dont read the news, I guess | 11:53 |
| cdavis | wookienz_: head -n 1 filename | 11:53 |
| dontknow | lokai, did you install it manually, or used ubuntu's automated driver installation? | 11:53 |
| lokai | dontknow, tried both with the same results. | 11:53 |
| wookienz_ | cdavis, thanks. can i call that inside bash script like that and assign to variable? ie $BLAH = head -n 1 filename | 11:54 |
| lokai | well, I should clarify: I tried with apt, and I tried running the latest linux drivers on nvidia.com | 11:54 |
| lokai | and according to nivida.com, my card is supported on x86 linux...though doesnt have info about the kernel version, but I guess this shouldn't matter | 11:55 |
| ikonia | lokai: it matters a lot | 11:55 |
| lokai | from what I understood nvidia drivers are somehow "semi-compiled" based on the kernel it detects -- its not just pure binary (except from the apt repos, of course) | 11:56 |
| === dark3n|off is now known as dark3n | ||
| lokai | but anyways the 12.04 apt repos would have the right package, and this doesnt work -- what gives? | 11:57 |
| cdavis | wookienz_: $BLAH = "$(head -n 1 filename)" I believe will work | 11:57 |
| jrib | cdavis: no spaces around = | 11:57 |
| jrib | cdavis: also no $ | 11:57 |
| dontknow | lokai, did you use "additional driver" software? | 11:57 |
| ikonia | lokai: it hooks into the kernel so build an interface to the kernel, that's why the kernel version is important | 11:57 |
| jrib | cdavis: $BLAH should be BLAH | 11:58 |
| lokai | dontknow, don't know what you are referring to...I ran apt-get install nvidia-current | 11:58 |
| wookienz_ | jrib, thanks. | 11:59 |
| lokai | modprobe -l nvidia returns kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.ko | 11:59 |
| dontknow | lokai, i am saying, if you use "additional driver" software, it configures automatically | 11:59 |
| lokai | I don't know what "additional driver" software is | 11:59 |
| DanielRM | dontknow: I believe Additional Drivers is just a wrap-around for apt-get install nvidia-current anyway. | 11:59 |
| DanielRM | dontknow: installing from APT would usually run the kernel module compilation as part of the dpkg config stage. | 12:00 |
| uuser | anyone for the consolekit active=false problem? thank you | 12:00 |
| lokai | right, so could it be that the on-chip GPU and discrete GPU conflict? | 12:00 |
| DanielRM | lokai: possibly, although it would depend on the cards. | 12:01 |
| DanielRM | It's not an Optimus configuration is it? | 12:01 |
| dontknow | DanielRM, i see, ok | 12:01 |
| lokai | DanielRM, yeah | 12:01 |
| lokai | it is | 12:01 |
| DanielRM | That's why then. Nvidia don't support Optimus on Linux IIRC. | 12:01 |
| lokai | Don't need it to, I just want to be able to use the damn card | 12:01 |
| lokai | don't care about dynamic load balancing | 12:02 |
| DanielRM | There are some workarounds. I'll just have a look for you. | 12:02 |
| wookienz_ | jrib, how do i escape this correctly? echo "SCGIMount /RPC4 127.0.0.1:$RPCPORT" >> /etc/apache2/apache2.conf | 12:02 |
| lokai | Having the nvidia card always-on is perfectly fine for me | 12:02 |
| lokai | and is actually preferable | 12:02 |
| dontknow | lokai, linus torvalds gave finger for nvidia | 12:02 |
| DanielRM | lokai: it reduces battery life drastically, but I'm looking for you anyway. :) | 12:03 |
| jrib | wookienz_: what do you want to escape? | 12:03 |
| wookienz_ | will $RPCPORT be ok in there? | 12:03 |
| jrib | wookienz_: do you want it to stay as "$RPCPORT" or do you want its value inserted? | 12:04 |
| DanielRM | lokai: can you get X up at all? | 12:05 |
| asad2005 | when i start conky the files in my desktop becomes hidden until i hover the mouse over them, would this be solvable from conky config? | 12:06 |
| lokai | DanielRM, Yes | 12:07 |

| gluon | anyone experiencing higher than usual cpu loads while idling on ubuntu 12.04 lts 64bit? | 12:09 |
| gluon | no particular userland process or system task showing up unusually high in top | 12:10 |
| lokai | hm, according to my googling it seems either I change the BIOS to only use the discrete GPU or go with some bumblee project drivers... | 12:10 |
| dontknow | gluon, use "top" command and see what consumes cpu | 12:10 |
| compdoc | gluon, no, but sometimes a program can do bad things. Ive built many Ubuntu 12.04 systems and its not a normal thing | 12:10 |
| gluon | dontknow: nothing does | 12:10 |
| gluon | even compiz isn't that high | 12:11 |
| gluon | i'm getting 0.30 cpu load in absolute idle though | 12:11 |
| vampirnata | so what's the problem... | 12:12 |
| vampirnata | that's 3% | 12:12 |
| gluon | unexplained 3%, it was close to 0 in 11.10 32bit | 12:13 |
| vampirnata | top should show you which processed take up that 3% | 12:13 |
| vampirnata | processes* | 12:13 |
| ticho_ | gluon, how do you measure? | 12:15 |
| geekbri | how many processors do you have? I wouldn't really consider 0.3 cpu load anything to worry about it. Like vampirnata said, run top and see what is using the load... | 12:15 |
| === jost_ is now known as jost | ||
| lokai | vampirnata, isn't 0.30 cpu load 3% only if he has 10 cores...? | 12:15 |
| vampirnata | no | 12:15 |
| dontknow | does anyone know which location gnome-do index files? | 12:15 |
| geekbri | on a 1 processor system a cpu load of 1 would mean the processor is being fully used. | 12:16 |
| lokai | yes | 12:16 |
| vampirnata | i have a dual core and it says 4.0. at the moment top reports 40% cpu from samba | 12:16 |
| === balou_fr_ is now known as balou_fr | ||
| lokai | i always divided load by the cpus to gauge CPU usage... | 12:16 |
| vampirnata | you don't need to | 12:17 |
| geekbri | yes | 12:17 |
| geekbri | a cpu load of 2 on a 1cpu system would mean that there is enough work for 2 cpus. | 12:17 |
| lokai | yes | 12:17 |
| DanielRM | lokai: yep, Bumblebee or BIOS setting seems to be the way to go. | 12:17 |
| busfahrer | Hi, I'm on 12.04. I've used CompizConfig to set it so when I touch the bottom right corner, compiz exposes all windows in a preview, so I can pick one of them.

| ticho_ | i have %Cpu(s): 0,2 us, 0,2 sy, 0,0 ni, 99,2 id, 0,3 wa, 0,0 hi, 0,0 si, 0,0 st <- looking at "top" | 12:17 |
| geekbri | so a load average of 4 on a 4 processor system means you are at capacity | 12:17 |
| lokai | Thanks DanielRM ...too bad >< | 12:17 |
| vampirnata | geekbri: no | 12:17 |
| DanielRM | lokai: Bumblebee won't run the Nvidia GPU for applications unless you run a specific program though. | 12:18 |
| lokai | DanielRM, yeah, and apparently it doesnt like my hardware either...Get a failure connecting to my discrete GPU | 12:18 |
| lokai | but anyways I look into it | 12:18 |
| vampirnata | like I said. I have a dual core. Current load is 4.0. In top the process taking the most is Samba which is 40%. | 12:18 |
| geekbri | sorry, cores not processors. | 12:18 |
| gluon | geekbri: is right | 12:18 |
| lokai | vampirnata, if you are using top to look at cpu load you're doing it wrong. | 12:19 |
| vampirnata | the rest are 0-1%. so therefore 4.0 == 40% | 12:19 |
| gluon | vampirnata: you are forgetting about time multiplexing of processes | 12:19 |
| geekbri | If you substitute "cores" for "processors" in what I said, It certainly is what cpu load means :) | 12:19 |
| gluon | that 40% isn't 40% 100% of the time | 12:19 |
| vampirnata | actually using htop but same diff | 12:19 |
| DanielRM | lokai: heh, sounds like fun times are ahead for you then. | 12:19 |
| geekbri | Its just early in the morning so my brain wasn't working normally :) | 12:19 |
| vampirnata | no it's not but at the moment i'm copying through samba | 12:19 |
| gluon | load works exactly like geekbri said | 12:19 |
| vampirnata | so therefore it's constant 40% | 12:19 |
| compdoc | sounds normal | 12:20 |
| WeThePeople | what is a good ip blocker for lucid LTS | 12:20 |
| vampirnata | and even average load since i started the machine up is 4.0 | 12:20 |
| vampirnata | because i started copying as soon as i booted | 12:20 |
| ikonia | WeThePeople: iptables or ufw (ubuntu firewall) | 12:20 |
| AdvoWork | Hi there, how can i test how fast dns resolves via the terminal? | 12:23 |
| ikonia | AdvoWork: type "host www.google.com" | 12:23 |
| ikonia | AdvoWork: or nslookup www.google.com | 12:23 |
| dontknow | are you experiencing cpu speaks when launching softwares? | 12:23 |
| ikonia | or whatever domain you want to test | 12:23 |
| kmap | hi | 12:23 |
| dontknow | i am experiencing cpu speaks when launching chrome | 12:24 |
| AdvoWork | ikonia, can i specify the router ip to use for this resolution?ie if i have 3 lines, can i check nslookup www.google.com using each of those? | 12:24 |
| ikonia | AdvoWork: what ? | 12:24 |
| kmap | can i sell ubuntu books here PM me if someone want to buy online | 12:24 |
| ikonia | kmap: please don't advertise | 12:24 |
| AdvoWork | ikonia, ive got 3 routers, all providin a different service for example, each have dns, my clients are using say 0.2. but i have 0.3 spare. By default it would be using 0.2 to resolve, but can i somehow check with 0.3? | 12:25 |
| ikonia | AdvoWork: when you say "routers" do you mean "dns servers" | 12:25 |
| kmap | hi | 12:26 |
| AdvoWork | ikonia, well adsl lines > routers (that all have their own dns servers) | 12:26 |
| ikonia | AdvoWork: if you do "nslookup" | 12:26 |
| ikonia | AdvoWork: and then server ip1, it will use the server ip1 for the lookup | 12:26 |
| === esm is now known as Guest4635 | ||
| ikonia | AdvoWork: then change it doing "server ip2" it will use the server ip2 for the lookup | 12:26 |
| dontknow | lets say cpu temprature is 54.8, after launching chrome it increases 65.8 and decrease again immediately, but it gives instant fan noise | 12:27 |

| ikonia | dontknow: when you use a cpu, it can get hotter, yes | 12:29 |
| bipul | kmap: i like you nick | 12:29 |
| AdvoWork | ikonia, ie nslookup www.google.com server 192.168.0.2? | 12:29 |
| bipul | google server 192.168.0.2 ? | 12:29 |
| ikonia | AdvoWork: no, type nslookup, then when you get the prompt do server 192.168.0.2 | 12:29 |
| dontknow | ikonia, ubuntu uses high cpu for particular things then | 12:30 |
| ikonia | AdvoWork: man nslookup will give you the details | 12:30 |
| ikonia | dontknow: no, if you use the cpu (launch a program) it may get hotter as it's in use | 12:30 |
| H4Z4RD | Hi | 12:30 |
| H4Z4RD | mates can you read this? | 12:30 |
| ikonia | yes | 12:30 |
| H4Z4RD | ohh fine xDD | 12:30 |
| dontknow | ikonia, why doesn't it get hotter when using windows? | 12:31 |
| ikonia | dontknow: I don't know | 12:31 |
| dontknow | ikonia, it means ubuntu uses much more cpu | 12:32 |
| ikonia | no, it doesn't | 12:32 |
| gluon | geekbri: you were indeed 100% right, you always divide load by the number of cpus or cores to get capacity | 12:32 |
| gluon | geekbri: by the way, this article has a great analogy, good read -> http://blog.scoutapp.com/articles/2009/07/31/understanding-load-averages | 12:32 |
| gluon | vampirnata: 4.0 load on a dual core is 200% capacity | 12:35 |
| gluon | maybe those processes taking only 1% are a lot of them running or waiting on the running queue at the same time | 12:35 |
| geekbri | yeah, I should have said cores not processors... but it was like 8 am.... So my brain wasn't doing so well :) | 12:35 |
| gluon | geekbri: lol | 12:35 |
| H4Z4RD | Backtrack needs very much power to... I think it goes to the webcam, fingerprint-reader and so one, because there is no correct driver | 12:36 |
| gluon | anyway, it would work the same even on multi-processor systems | 12:36 |
| geekbri | gluon: ah yeah, scout usually has pretty good blog posts. | 12:36 |
| gluon | geekbri: i didn't know this blog | 12:37 |
| gluon | quite nice | 12:37 |
| geekbri | gluon: scout is a ruby application that is sort of like munin or graphite. Its just that they host it | 12:37 |
| geekbri | so you run the scout application on a bunch of servers and it uploads all its data to their hosted service and you can look at pretty graphs. | 12:37 |
| === alan_ is now known as Guest68635 | ||
| gluon | yup | 12:38 |
| geekbri | Its not bad, although its written in ruby, so its a bit of a resource hog.... | 12:38 |
| zetheroo | a very strange problem here!! When connected to the office network, on which there are a number of shares, the files in the trashes from all those shares are somehow showing up in my local trash ... what is causing this and how can I stop this from occuring? | 12:41 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: probvably through gfs, it's not a problem | 12:41 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: the trash is held on the remote mount point not on your machine so it not eating your resource | 12:42 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: well it's just that I don't want them to be in my local trash | 12:42 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: have a look at your gnome virtual file system directory, see if that has anything to do with it (I'm assuming it does, I don't know for certain) | 12:43 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: how are the shares mounted, NFS/CIFS/Fuse ? | 12:43 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: they are mounted through CIFS | 12:43 |
| climatex | hey all | 12:44 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: not sure how gnome deals with that, but worth a look | 12:44 |
| vampirnata | gluon: maybe it's because of the processor I have. It's an dual core atom with hyperthreading | 12:44 |
| vampirnata | so I imagine it counts it as 4 cores then | 12:44 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: could you point me in the right direction of how to check that out? | 12:44 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: a bit of a noob when it comes to this stuff :P | 12:44 |
| ikonia | zetheroo: look in .gvfs (I think that's right, I don't have gnome here) | 12:44 |
| climatex | folks, is it possible to boot straight to the command line in U12.10 and starting X later ? | 12:44 |
| vampirnata | but besides that, i'm still getting 4.0 average load on this dual atom with only samba taking 40% and the rest not much at all. | 12:45 |
| climatex | the last time I did this was on a 7.04 and settings changed | 12:45 |
| zetheroo | ikonia: that directory is empty | 12:45 |
| ikonia | maybe not then | 12:45 |
| compdoc | dual atom? sounds great then | 12:45 |
| vampirnata | I believe all atoms are dual no? | 12:46 |
| compdoc | vampirnata, its more to do with the cpu type | 12:47 |

| Fallzy | I used wubi for a while untill comfortable..Only was worried about missing Outlook and WoW.. Been on full 12.04 for 3 weeks..WoW working well within Wine and using Evolution.Once they get Evolution syncing with Ubuntu One I will be happier..But great OS. | 13:04 |
| cypher-neo | Nytelife: You can preview Ubuntu and make changes to the flashdrive ISO without having to install it on your computer | 13:04 |

| LenovoG470 | i really need help | 13:06 |
| MonkeyDust | LenovoG470 a question is always a good beginning | 13:06 |
| Fallzy | I favoured wubi over the flashdrive as wubi supported 30gig if I remember..Only had a 8 gig Flashdrive | 13:06 |
| thedark | can anyone help me get S-Video out working on 12.04? | 13:07 |
| Nytelife | •cypher-neo• I am going to try that next. I have tried that with Linux Mint and had trouble wiht the ati drivers staying put ater a reboot | 13:07 |
| LenovoG470 | sad, my built-in microphone in Lenovo G470/11.10 is not detected | 13:07 |
| MonkeyDust | LenovoG470 not detected or muted? | 13:08 |
| LenovoG470 | not detected | 13:08 |
| cypher-neo | Nytelife: This might sound a little complicated... but there is a specific process you can follow to make sure that the flashdrive operates correctly when Live-Previewing | 13:08 |
| cypher-neo | Nytelife: If you're moving from *anything else* to Ubuntu, the process is a little complicated. | 13:09 |
| Fallzy | Nytelife : I have a ATI HD 5870 running well on 12.04.. Running WoW on Average at 60fps.. | 13:09 |
| LenovoG470 | cos it is not even shown in the sound settings | 13:09 |
| Nytelife | dual monitor Falzy? | 13:09 |
| thedark | or even just upgrading | 13:09 |
| thedark | take me for example | 13:09 |
| thedark | everything was working fine in 10.10 | 13:09 |
| MonkeyDust | Nytelife that's called 'learning', a phase you had go through with other OSs, too | 13:09 |
| cypher-neo | Nytelife: You need to burn the ISO to a disk, and then Live-boot the disk. While in Live Mode, mount your hard drive, and find the ISO image... | 13:09 |
| thedark | then I got suckered into installing 12.04 | 13:10 |

| tkennedy | is anyone familiar with using pidgin DBus and how to get a buddies status? | 13:11 |
| cypher-neo | Nytelife: Specifically, you can set up the flashdrive allow package installation and to store packages and system info on the remaining space on the flashdrive. | 13:11 |
| cypher-neo | Nytelife: And that's what you need to get a true Live-Preview. | 13:12 |
| cypher-neo | Nytelife: Set it up so it uses the whole flashdrive and stores and SAVES all the extra data on the flashdrive. | 13:12 |
| cypher-neo | Nytelife: Make sense? | 13:13 |
| Fallzy | Cypher what would be the advantage in using the live USB over the WUBI install. | 13:13 |

| Meridious | Nytelife, You misunderstand, I am just suggesting that simple research is much more rewarding and informing than any of us are :P | 13:34 |
| ActionParsnip | CMIU898: I'd use it just to be sure | 13:34 |

| seb_workfly_ | Hi, i'm using a BeagleBone. I'm programming on my pc with arm-linux-gnueabi-g++ to compile for the beaglebone. It seems some libraries i use like opencv and artoolkitplus are incompatible (Eclipse tell me that it is skipping te library because it is incompatible when i try to compile). Do you know how i could solve this ? I'm relatively new to ubuntu and cross-compiling... Thanks | 13:43 |

| Pici | !aptitude | Xinul | 14:09 |
| ubottu | Xinul: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. You may encounter problems on multiarch installs (11.10 and higher) as aptitude cannot currently handle the same package with different architectures being installed at the same time. See http://pad.lv/831768 for more information. | 14:09 |

| Gurkan | Hi. I'm using 12.04, 64-bit with nvidia 295.59. Problem is I can't use the nvidia driver, Nvidia x server settings keep saying "you do not appear to be using nvidia x server". I've tried un-/reisntalling in various ways with no luck, now I'd like to try envyng. But of course it requires python 2.6, and I have python 2.7 installed =[..

| ActionParsnip | Papa: it is and it's not supported here | 15:01 |
| ikonia | Kingsy: ahh, my apologies, it is | 15:01 |
| roasted | ikonia: wayyy too much output for 1 screen. wasn't there an option to grep by page? | 15:01 |

| tjadc | Hi | 15:01 |
| tjadc | I have just screwed up my update-alternatives somehow | 15:01 |
| Papa | anodr problem i try to play a flash game in ubuntu it says please install flash but i have ubuntu restricted installed any soln | 15:01 |
| ikonia | isn't there a disk space analyiser tool in unity roasted ? | 15:01 |
| Kingsy | ikonia: nope that doesnt work | 15:01 |
| roasted | ikonia: yeah, there is. but I'm a little confused by what I saw. sec I'll fire it up. | 15:02 |
| ikonia | Kingsy: what user are you logged in as ? | 15:02 |
| tjadc | I manually edited the alternative link to my app - it didn't work, so I read up how to do it via update-alternatives | 15:02 |
| === Jikan is now known as Jikai | ||
| Kingsy | ikonia: "chris" | 15:02 |
| tjadc | now | 15:02 |
| ikonia | Kingsy: so non-privileged, it should be fine if it's using the standard auth | 15:02 |
| ikonia | Kingsy: does it need a mysql database ? | 15:02 |
| Kingsy | ikonia: I have no idea.. I just installed it | 15:02 |
| tjadc | No matter what I install for that app I get the same result, which is that it tries to open up something that doesn't exist | 15:03 |
| Kingsy | trying to log into it via http | 15:03 |
| tjadc | specifically my app is grails | 15:03 |
| tjadc | which lives in /usr/share/grails/<version>/bin/grails | 15:03 |
| Kingsy | let me look at the settings | 15:03 |
| roasted | ikonia: it says / is 100% full, and home (separate partition on same disk) is 88.4% full. When I expand home, I see .ecryptfs @ 36.2GB, jason @ 17.8 GB, jason.bunchofrandomcharacters @ 700MB, and that's it. I'm a little confused by the ecryptfs. Not only that, but root is on its own 15GB partition, separate from home, so I have no idea how the home contents (though confusing) are effecting the 100% output of / being maxed. | 15:03 |
| tjadc | when I try run grails at the moment I get a message that says | 15:04 |
| tjadc | /usr/bin/grails: 4: .: Can't open /usr/bin/startGrails | 15:04 |
| ikonia | roasted: why are you looking on /home if / is full ? | 15:04 |
| ikonia | roasted: look in / | 15:04 |
| ikonia | Kingsy: just trying to find it's home page | 15:04 |
| Dr_willis | isent / being 100% full is like bad... ;) | 15:04 |
| === Jikai is now known as Jikan | ||
| panz | my / is 20gb size... :D used 13gb | 15:04 |
| tjadc | When I trace the link of /usr/bin/grails, it points to /etc/alternatives/grails which in turn correctly points to /usr/share/grails/<version>/bin/grails | 15:04 |
| roasted | ikonia: if I ignore home and look at the other entries taking up space, I can only come up with a sum of 6GB. Home is the only thing taking up any substantial space. | 15:05 |
| Kingsy | ikonia: there actually is no mention of username/password in the config file either | 15:05 |
| tjadc | so why when I try open grails it tries to open some random file that doesn't exist ? | 15:05 |
| Papa | haxball i cannot play this game in ubuntu | 15:05 |
| tjadc | My next question is, how do I fix this ? | 15:05 |

| ubottu | Package haxball does not exist in precise | 15:06 |
| tjadc | How do I fix a broken alternative config | 15:06 |
| ikonia | Kingsy: the actual username password appears to be set in the database | 15:06 |
| tjadc | when I `which grails` it points to /usr/bin/grails - which is correct | 15:06 |
| ikonia | Kingsy: I'm just reading up on it now | 15:06 |
| roasted | ikonia: maybe I'm missing something, but here's a screenshot as I'm sure it'l make more sense than me trying to explain it - http://i.imgur.com/kmYTX.png | 15:06 |

| ikonia | roasted: can you pastebin the output of "df -h" please. | 15:07 |
| Kingsy | ikonia: hmm .. well I didnt set any u/p for it.. so I assume its something "default" atm | 15:07 |
| tjadc | ikonia: No, I didn't tell you my `which grails` command | 15:07 |
| Papa | it says install flash from adobe i can wath utubevideos | 15:07 |

| nitroh | hello | 15:10 |
| chrisalk | @ActionParsnip, tried rebooting in unity2d, no luck, the online vid stream still hangs up as well as dvd on player | 15:10 |
| roasted | ikonia: a warning physically popped up and said my file system is maxed. | 15:10 |
| ikonia | roasted: that's most odd | 15:10 |
| nitroh | how do you move a folder from an encrypted hard drive to another harddrive | 15:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Papa: can you give a pastebin of: cat /etc/lsb-release; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark' use http://pastie.org or similar | 15:10 |
| Kingsy | ikonia: any ideas? | 15:11 |
| ikonia | roasted: with /run, that does appear to be taking you very close to %100 full on root | 15:11 |
| ActionParsnip | chrisalk: if you drop the @ stmbol it highlights my nick | 15:11 |
| ActionParsnip | @chrisalk: see hw this hasn't highlighted | 15:11 |
| ikonia | Kingsy: nope | 15:11 |
| roasted | ikonia: well I cleared off some files which allowed me to get the error off my chest. When it happened I was just sitting here, though... so I had no idea what it was doing to max out. | 15:12 |
| nitroh | jrib: thank you for your help yesterday. I tried changing allt he config files for compiz and unity, it still didn't work. I'm installing on a new hard drive right now | 15:12 |

| ActionParsnip | chrisalk: np dude | 15:12 |
| roasted | ikonia: so you understand, I have a folder @ root called public that I share out via samba. It's just a quick and dirty way for me to transfer files to other systems with guest access here at work. I had some files in there that I cleared out to get the free space I have. but that folder is empty and this is what I got. | 15:12 |
| chrisalk | ActionParsnip tried the reboot in unity 2d, no luck | 15:12 |
| grendal | im trying to run the old ubuntu classic desktop, I cant seem to add apps to the dock that runs on the top..what do i need to install for that to work? | 15:12 |
| ikonia | roasted: well, the df results seem to back up that it's pretty much full, but not quite | 15:13 |
| schatan | i m using ubuntu 12.04 with cpufrequtils and the indicator-cpufreq ... the governor works but i cannot set the cpu speed and it is always at the max cpu freq | 15:13 |
| roasted | ikonia: right, which makes sense considering I deleted ~1GB of data out of /public (the guest shared samba folder I had running) | 15:13 |
| roasted | ikonia: I just did that to get the error off my back. | 15:14 |
| sharkmuttleworth | schatan: Are you sure your CPU supports dynamic frequency scaling? | 15:14 |
| ikonia | roasted: that analyiser tool appears to be just lagging | 15:14 |
| sharkmuttleworth | schatan: Possibly something in the bios needs enabling? | 15:14 |
| grendal | nevermind, you have to hold dow the alt button to get to them | 15:14 |
| roasted | ikonia: think it's not telling us the full story? | 15:14 |
| ikonia | roasted: it just appears to have not updated since you've removed the data | 15:14 |
| roasted | ikonia: hmm.I wonder hwy. it's been rebooted. | 15:14 |
| Kingsy | ikonia: lol its pretty funny that it lets you install a package and it doesnt tell you anywhere what they defaults are | 15:15 |
| schatan | sharkmuttleworth: its an i5 it should work | 15:15 |
| ActionParsnip | chrisalk: what GPU do you use? | 15:15 |
| sharkmuttleworth | schatan: I haven't heard of that brand, but I trust your knowledge | 15:15 |
| ikonia | roasted: look at df - you've only got a bit of space free still, so there could be a bit of rounding going on, but not that much | 15:15 |
| nitroh | i5 first or second gen and is it unlocked? | 15:15 |
| roasted | ikonia: it just kind of surprised me. I've never come close to maxing a 15gb root partition, and here I am. :P | 15:16 |
| ikonia | roasted: I would use du -h to actually look at what's eating the space | 15:16 |
| ikonia | roasted: it seems a drag, but that's what I'd do | 15:16 |
| sharkmuttleworth | This is why I avoid needlessly partitioning disks | 15:16 |
| schatan | unlocked first | 15:16 |
| tjadc | What does Ubuntu set the default administrative directory to ? it is not /var/lib/alternatives (the default) | 15:16 |

| busfahrer | Hi, I'm on 12.04. I've used CompizConfig to set it so when I touch the bottom right corner, compiz exposes all windows in a preview, so I can pick one of them.

| NictraSavios | I recently got a new mouse after using my laptops trackpad for a while. I was just testing it out on ubuntu and I've noticed two issues.... The first one is, my scroll button (Middle button) seems to be mixed up.. | 17:43 |
| _numbers | ever since upgrade to 12.04 ooffice writer menus always appear on the wrong screen. so if i have writer open in screen 3, then i right-click in the document, the popup/context menu appears on screen 4. same with file menus. | 17:43 |
| NictraSavios | When I scroll up, it goes down. and vice vera... | 17:44 |
| crond | Can I safely change my xubuntu to ubuntu without messing up settings and uninstalling programs? | 17:44 |
| crond | or must I do a complete reinstall? | 17:44 |

| echo083 | Scunizi, ifconfig | 18:38 |
| kkant | fuck | 18:38 |
| Scunizi | echo083: DOH! I should have remember that. | 18:38 |
| al_the_x | faryshta: Yes, phpMyAdmin isn't my favorite but can work in a pinch, particularly over localhost connections. | 18:38 |
| echo083 | Scunizi, lol | 18:38 |
| echo083 | al_the_x, it is a particular package to manage mysql replication ? | 18:38 |
| tmg | al_the_x: only for loclhost | 18:38 |
| al_the_x | faryshta: The MySQL Dev Tools package is pretty good, last I looked. Eclipse also has some nice ER rendering built in. | 18:38 |
| faryshta | al_the_x, yes but for production servers its the last option I would use :-) | 18:39 |
| Yoshi2889 | Hey guys, back for another round of support lol | 18:39 |
| faryshta | al_the_x, mysql dev tools sounds nice let me install it :) | 18:39 |
| Scunizi | echo083: weird.. ifconfig confirms that eth0 is what I'm using.. but sudo ifdown eth0 says eth0 isn't configured.. ??? | 18:39 |
| tmg | faryshta: you can, if access is defined wise | 18:39 |
| al_the_x | faryshta: Agreed. But why have an accessible mysql in production anyway? :D | 18:39 |
| echo083 | Scunizi, probably because you already release it, try sudo ifup eth0 | 18:39 |
| Scunizi | echo083: if that were the case we would be disconnected :) | 18:40 |
| al_the_x | Anyone using config files in /etc/mysql/conf.d/ to configure MySQL? | 18:40 |
| echo083 | Scunizi, ohhh nice thinking ! | 18:40 |
| echo083 | Scunizi, but you could have use your windows box | 18:40 |
| echo083 | Scunizi, just not to lose my pride :) | 18:40 |
| Scunizi | echo083: true.. or the lappy next to me.. this happens to be my desktop | 18:40 |
| Yoshi2889 | I reinstalled GRUB so I could boot Ubuntu from Windows again, but now GRUB shows me that selection screen every time I boot my laptop, can I change it to automatically boot Ubuntu and hold left shift for the menu? | 18:41 |
| cb_ | s | 18:41 |
| Scunizi | echo083: perhaps just using the appelate in the gui to shut it down.. (running kde desktop right now.) | 18:41 |
| echo083 | Scunizi, yes why not but i have no explaination with ifdown says your iface is not configured | 18:42 |
| killer | programs disappearing after being minimized in unity 3D but works ok in unity 2D | 18:42 |
| Scunizi | . | 18:43 |

| wasd | you folks have experience w/ irssi ? | 18:43 |
| echo083 | Scunizi, did you find your window$ box exploring the network with nautilus ? | 18:43 |
| Scunizi | echo083: same issue.. still asking for uname/pass.. :( | 18:44 |
| bazhang | wasd, try #irssi | 18:44 |
| echo083 | Scunizi, just click ok | 18:44 |
| glosoli | lol I was happy for Skype 4 until I happen to know that it crashes my gnome session 5 times a day cool huh | 18:44 |
| al_the_x | Anybody? MySQL replication? Is there an #ubuntu-server channel? | 18:44 |
| echo083 | wasd, what do you need to do with irssi ? | 18:44 |
| wasd | bazhang: already did - people are not very responsive | 18:44 |
| glosoli | al_the_x: there is | 18:44 |
| wasd | echo083: i'm havin trouble loading a script | 18:45 |
| echo083 | al_the_x, #mysql ? | 18:45 |
| al_the_x | glosoli: Indeed. When in doubt, /join something. :D | 18:45 |
| wasd | cant keep thinking i forgot some elementary thing :P | 18:45 |
| Scunizi | echo083: I don't think that using the appelate actually re-read the nsswitch.conf file.. is there a way to force that? | 18:45 |
| al_the_x | echo083: I'm not sure it's a MySQL bug yet… I'll hit up #mysql next. | 18:45 |
| nitrohax | is there a nessacary reason to install all the language packs? | 18:45 |
| echo083 | al_the_x, there is no dedicated mysql replication channel :( | 18:46 |
| echo083 | wasd, i'll be helpless i used once irssi to chat but that's all sorry | 18:46 |
| Scunizi | echo083: Oh. I had to hit enter numerous times before the request disappeared.. now dolphin is "Loading Folder". It's not cached so it might take a while.. but then may never happen as well. | 18:46 |
| qdb | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas there is no 10.10 . is there ppas for 10.10 ? or usable? | 18:47 |
| xangua | qdb: 10.10 is no longer supported | 18:47 |
| bazhang | qdb 10.10 is not supported | 18:47 |
| echo083 | Scunizi, now it shouldn't request any username or password to use your share as far as i remember | 18:47 |
| echo083 | Scunizi, fix the name resolution and you'll be good. nsswitch.conf is loaded by nscd | 18:48 |
| nitrohax | is there an updated driver for an nvidia 9gt series card in teh repos? | 18:48 |
| MFen | where is "create launcher" in ubuntu 11.10 | 18:48 |

| thomasbomb | Is there a way to automatically SSH with ubuntu? | 18:49 |
| beandog | thomasbomb: what do you mean | 18:49 |
| Scunizi | echo083: so to restart nscd it's sudo service nscd restart ? | 18:50 |
| echo083 | Scunizi, yes ! if your nsswitch is correctly set it should be good | 18:50 |
| thomasbomb | I want to use SSH to change settings on my router when a certain program runs | 18:50 |
| Gyges | thomasbomb, you can ssh in a script and let the script run the program | 18:51 |
| qdb | xangua, bazhang, thank you. i have 10.10 installed and want to install intel gma 3600 enabled linux kernel. but the 10.10 is fresh , not very hard to install other thing. i have 10.04 usbflash. ... so i ll search whether there ready kernel for intel gma 3600 ... | 18:51 |

| thomasbomb | Gyges yes that's what I want, how do I do that? | 18:51 |
| Jacta | looking for a notray or so | 18:51 |
| Scunizi | echo083: nscd isn't recognized as a service.. :( .. perhaps just a reboot (I hate to do that when I don't have to) | 18:52 |
| Gyges | Havelin, try running it from the console and looking at the messages | 18:52 |
| nitrohax | horay install done | 18:52 |
| Havelin | Ahh yeah it's not installed /facepalm | 18:52 |
| wcchandler | thomasbomb: you can call ssh to do a command and exit, just like you would if you connected to it... e.g. "ssh root@host 'uptime'" will return the uptime of host | 18:52 |
| jamm | hello people | 18:52 |
| echo083 | Scunizi, ohhh i don't remember which service is managing the nsswitch file when nscd is not installed i thought it was installed by default sorry | 18:53 |
| Pokinawa | Hi Guys... I am struggling to install ubuntu 12.04.... the installer doesn't detect my windows 7 OS or partitions... any thoughts? :| | 18:53 |
| Gyges | thomasbomb, http://pastebin.com/D0hM9XHH | 18:53 |
| echo083 | Scunizi, yes reboot !! | 18:53 |
| wcchandler | thomasbomb: you'd need to setup password-less, key based authentication between your machine and the server | 18:53 |
| jamm | i ned help for asterix | 18:53 |
| h00k | Pokinawa: make sure you do a clean shutdown, or do a checkdisk from Windows to make sure the partition is clean. | 18:53 |
| Jordan_U | Pokinawa: You probably have an invalid partition table, which will need to be fixed before installing Ubuntu (and which is important to fix on its own as well). Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l". | 18:53 |
| jamm | anyone | 18:54 |
| thomasbomb | Well I don't really understand SSH that well... I guess I should look into it more before trying to write a script for it | 18:54 |
| Pokinawa | thanks h00k.... strange thing is.... I can see the partitions in when i go to "Computer" in ubuntu (try live) | 18:54 |
| qdb | is there linux 3.4 for 10.04 somewhere ? so that bcmwl-kernel-source for bcm4313 wifi also works.. does bcmwl-kernel-source at least work in 12.10 alpha1 ? | 18:54 |

| qdb | does bcmwl-kernel-source at least work in 12.10 alpha1 , with 3.4 kernel ? | 18:55 |
| wcchandler | steveoliver: I have problems about twice a week with my 12.04 install, going from 11.10 and 11.04 on another machine. I suggest waiting for 12.04.1 in a couple months | 18:55 |
| Jordan_U | Pokinawa: Did you see my message? | 18:55 |

| Jordan_U | Pokinawa: It depends on what exactly is wrong, and "sudo parted -l" should tell us that fairly clearly. | 18:58 |

| maplebed | hi, question about partman and the 'priority'. I'm reading http://coewww.rutgers.edu/www1/linuxclass2010/lessons/lesson2/partman-auto-recipe.txt and it says that priority is usually between minimal size and maximal size. I don't understand why it should be in that range - isn't it only used in partitiion competition? | 19:01 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | ive had a prob when trying to reboot ubuntu\ | 19:01 |

| zwned | is it possible to configure boot from SAN without the use of PXE for initrd, kernel, and boot? I would like to have 100% of the OS on the SAN | 19:05 |
| claude2 | can anyone here help with an nfs problem im having trying to get a diskless install working? | 19:05 |
| kyle__ | zwned: If you've got an HBA I beleive so. | 19:06 |
| morsnowski | zwned, that would mean you have to have your HBA's recognised prior to boot | 19:06 |
| PrivateAlpha | Keyboard not working on the LGE23 anyone know of a fix? | 19:06 |
| Jordan_U | hichamat: Your question is odd because the portion of grub which is installed to the MBR is a pretty critical portion. "grub-install /dev/sda" will definitely install grub's boot sector to the MBR of /dev/sda, as well as embedding grub's core.img to the embedding area (usually the area between the mbr and first partition) and grub-install will also setup /boot/grub/ with the files grub needs (though it will not create a /boot/grub/grub.cfg, as that is ... | 19:06 |
| Jordan_U | ... what grub-mkconfig is for). | 19:06 |
| asus1025c | kyle__: Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N2800 cpu cores: 2 | 19:06 |
| kyle__ | zwned: iSCSI or fiberchanel HBAs show up as scsi devices. As long as your system/bios can see & use it as a scsi card, youre good. | 19:06 |
| kyle__ | asus1025c: Hum. Sorry, newest atom I have is a D525. | 19:07 |
| damms005 | Guys, does /dev behave like /tmp? (I dd'eda partition to it and vamoosed on restart) | 19:07 |
| asus1025c | ok thanks anyway | 19:07 |
| kyle__ | damms005: /dev is a virtual directory (usually), /tmp is (usually) a physical diretory, and many distros clear it out on boot. | 19:07 |
| Jordan_U | zwned: Only if you have firmware which supports whatever protocol you're using on the SAN, which is *very* unlikely. | 19:07 |
| zwned | kyle, they are | 19:08 |
| linux_is_my_hero | anyone tried a lightup keyboard with ubuntu yet? | 19:08 |

| heep-- | my ubuntu is going straight to terminal instead of unity | 19:24 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | u can choose different sessions some work some dont | 19:24 |
| grendal | Sire, well there is an entire distro desigend for doing what your doing (probably) I think its mediubuntu. | 19:24 |
| heep-- | what do i type start-unity or start-gnome? | 19:24 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | yeah alumin | 19:24 |
| grendal | or myth. | 19:24 |
| cndiv | maplebed, I'll try that | 19:24 |
| Pici | grendal, sire: no, medibuntu is a repository of media related packages. | 19:24 |
| grendal | thats right. forgot... | 19:24 |
| Alumin | kyle__: thing is, though, if I just run "javaws <uri>" at the console, I don't get that error | 19:25 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | i installed the lubuntu desktop session and now some of the other ones wont work any more lol | 19:25 |
| Pokinawa | Jordan_U: Hey! So what was that command for checking my partition tables? | 19:25 |
| morsnowski | fuzzynurfhurter, not sure what you mean. can you post a screenshot? | 19:25 |
| grendal | whats the mediacenter distro called? I thought there was like a tasksel for it but..wasnt sure anymore. | 19:25 |
| Pici | Sire: You'll probably want to look into something like mpd for audio, and rtorrent for torrents... but you have a lot of choices. | 19:25 |
| kyle__ | Alumin: You can run that against the file it grabs. Sometimes it works. | 19:25 |
| heep-- | my ubuntu is going straight to terminal instead of unity what do i type start-unity or start-gnome? | 19:25 |
| Alumin | I do get some kind of "file not found" or whatever, but I assume that's cause I don't have the session cookie etc | 19:25 |
| Pici | grendal: There is no headless media center task. | 19:25 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | no i would have to reboot its on the laptop imworkin on | 19:25 |
| maplebed | Pokinawa: is "parted -l" what you're looking for? | 19:25 |
| grendal | hmm | 19:25 |
| zwned | So, I boot from SAN - I am seeing the GRUB menu and select my kernel. It starts to boot and I get stuck on mty 1500 DHCP RARP. Any ideas? | 19:25 |
| Alumin | kyle__: hmm good idea | 19:25 |
| grendal | hold on...i must consult the oracle | 19:26 |

| Pokinawa | However, it does not have a valid fake msdos partition table, as it should. | 19:27 |
| Pokinawa | Perhaps it was corrupted -- possibly by a program that doesn't understand GPT | 19:27 |

| Guest1232 | Morsnowski, Well, I'll Try that then return online and tell you what i get | 20:14 |
| i7c | my (new) notebook's battery is sucked empty in no time on ubuntu. i had the suspicion that it uses the NVIDIA card instead of the power-saving intel graphix. but when i start nvidia x server settings it tells me nvidia driver is not used atm... any other ideas why it is empty so fast? | 20:14 |
| nitrohax | you shouldn't need more then 30 gb anyways doing it that way. you can still access the host HD | 20:14 |
| Galvatron | i7c: What laptop? | 20:15 |
| Pokinawa | ah.. ok.. | 20:15 |
| nitrohax | Pokinawa, are you using the ubuntu live cd now? | 20:15 |
| Guest1232 | Galvatron, Thanks for the helpful information. | 20:15 |

| Galvatron | i7c: Make sure you have the proprietary (nVidia's) drivers, not the Nouveau junkware. | 20:16 |
| i7c | Galvatron: mhm how can i make sure? ;) | 20:16 |
| Galvatron | i7c: Check if the "nvidia-current" package is installed, unless you have installed it manually, from the NV website | 20:17 |
| ironm | ikonia, are you around? When I use ifenslave on ubuntu 12.04 interface bonding works as expected (with following config files: interfaces - http://paste.debian.net/175728/ ... and bonding.conf - http://paste.debian.net/175729/) | 20:17 |
| ironm | ikonia: I have tested some configurations (see config files in brackets) without ifenslave, and *no* one works :( interfaces - http://paste.debian.net/175730/ ... bonding.conf - http://paste.debian.net/175731/ ... modules - http://paste.debian.net/175732/ ). Do you have an idea what do I miss? Thank you in advance for any hints or examples of working config files without using ifenslave. | 20:17 |
| Galvatron | i7c: The open-source drivers suck terribly when it comes to the power management. | 20:18 |
| i7c | ok, dpkg --get-selections says nvidia-current install | 20:18 |
| nitrohax | Pokinawa, in terminal try sudo fdisk -l | 20:18 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | why wont ubuntu find my ntfs HD ? i formated it useing linux just now | 20:19 |
| i7c | Galvatron: i see. i didn't install anything. i just installed ubuntu and it worked already... so i have to change that i guess? | 20:19 |
| nitrohax | fuzzynurfhurter, is it mounted? | 20:19 |
| Pokinawa | nitrohax: I see sda1 - 4 | 20:19 |

| nitrohax | yes | 20:19 |

| nitrohax | Pokinawa, yes | 20:19 |
| ironm | it is *not* documented in unbunt administration guide | 20:19 |
| nitrohax | fuzzynurfhurter, does it show up as *gb filie system under home folder? | 20:20 |

| i7c | Galvatron: mhm ok. well it was the very first time i unplugged the charger... maybe it's because of that? | 20:21 |

| Guest1232 | Hi, Morsnowski i'm back. | 20:23 |
| nitrohax | Pokinawa, i tried pming you but you didnt' respond. send a query to me and i'll explain in there | 20:24 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | nitrohax yeah it does and heres the error http://paste.ubuntu.com/1053227/ | 20:24 |

| morsnowski | so what did it tell you | 20:24 |
| Sire | I'm doing an ubuntu server install and after entering my desired hostname, the screen cleared the text-UI and isn't doing anything. Is it just loading or what? | 20:24 |

| i7c | Galvatron: i just read about bumblebee yes. nvidia optimus is still not implemented by the drivers? | 20:25 |
| Guest1232 | Morsnowski, Sorry I'm a little new to all this, just bare with me lol. What command do i put into Terminal before Isusb? | 20:25 |
| itbox | on Lubuntu 11.10 i installed gnome-shell but it doesn't wanna log on to gnome. | 20:25 |
| morsnowski | noting if you have the terminal open just type lsusb | 20:25 |
| itbox | i entered my user name and password and then it just shows the login screen again | 20:25 |
| Guest1232 | Morsnowski, Alright Thanks, I'll be right back. | 20:26 |
| Galvatron | i7c: No. It was not until just recently that nVidia has decided to bring the technology to Linux. | 20:26 |
| morsnowski | hang on | 20:26 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | it was telling me earlyier that the $mft was invalid | 20:26 |
| guntbert | Sire: use alt+left to switch to another virtual terminal, repeat until you find one with logging/reporting lines, there you can see what is gong on | 20:26 |
| guntbert | *going | 20:26 |
| Guest1232 | Morsnowski, yes? | 20:26 |
| morsnowski | look for the line that has your netgear thingy and get us the ####:#### code | 20:26 |

| i7c | Galvatron: i see. thx for your help! | 20:27 |
| Galvatron | i7c:: Now it's just a problem of implementing the required components into the kernel, but some free software purists, or so, are making a problem. | 20:28 |
| Galvatron | Something with the interaction between the proprietary and GPL components | 20:28 |
| Sire | guntbert: so the primary virtual terminal that's supposed to display the UI just seems to be printing the characters typed. | 20:28 |
| guntbert | Sire: do you already get a screen with something like "press <enter> to open a console" ? | 20:28 |
| Sire | I passed at least two of those. | 20:28 |

| Jordan_U | Pokinawa: Could you pastebin the exact fixparts command you ran and the complete output? | 20:29 |

| Sire | guntbert: how so? | 20:30 |
| Pokinawa | Jordan_U: I did fixparts /dev/sda | 20:30 |
| guntbert | Sire: because you already have a running linux system during install | 20:31 |
| i7c | Galvatron: yeh. well Linus said it some days ago. nvidia is one of the worst company to work with | 20:31 |

| Sire | guntbert: more of how do I work with this? | 20:31 |
| morsnowski | what did you type? | 20:31 |
| Galvatron | i7c: This time it's the Linux dudes, not NV, who makes problems (ideological). | 20:31 |
| Guest1232 | Morsnowski, I typed isusb or Isusb. | 20:31 |
| Guest1232 | Northing in front of it either just that command. | 20:32 |
| Galvatron | But not Linus himself (he's fine with anything that works) | 20:32 |
| guntbert | Sire: I thought you wanted to know if your install is stalled or not. This is how you can find out | 20:32 |
| Galvatron | And improves Linux | 20:32 |
| itbox | why doesn't it let me to enter gnome shell on Lubuntu 11.10? | 20:32 |
| morsnowski | hmm it has to be "lsusb" linux is case sensitive | 20:32 |
| _riz_ | can anyone give me a hand finishing out my preseed file so the last few questions stop getting asked? | 20:32 |
| Sire | guntbert: yes, but I have no clue how to check that. | 20:32 |
| morsnowski | this is a lower case L | 20:33 |
| i7c | Galvatron: anybody always has a problem :-/ | 20:33 |
| xreal | There are some libboost*.deb files in the currenty directory. When I use the following command, dpkg accesses them ... why? dpkg -l libboost* | grep ii | awk '{print $2}' | 20:33 |
| landman | sslserver irc.freenode.net | 20:33 |
| Guest1232 | Morsnowski, Okay so, I should type the command as "Isusb" Without the brackets or with them? | 20:33 |
| i7c | oh well Ironhide isn't installable on Precise... is there a solution for this? it depends on virtualgl which has no installation candidate | 20:34 |
| morsnowski | just simply lsusb and will give you a list (ls) of usb devices (usb) => (lsusb) | 20:34 |
| ki4ro | morsnowski: It is not an I...it is an l as in lemon | 20:34 |
| guntbert | Sire: type top - that might give you an overview of the running processes and the system load - just to determine what is going on | 20:34 |
| Jordan_U | Pokinawa: sudo fixparts /dev/sda | 20:34 |
| morsnowski | ki4ro, yes that I already told him | 20:35 |

| iLogical | how do I disable ppa repositories? I don't find them to comment on sources.list | 20:42 |
| Galvatron | m1chael: As a general piece of advice: I would consider switching to Xubuntu 12.04. While Unity + Compiz might not be stable enought yet (the whole technology id still quite young, with Compiz 0.9.x possibly still in the alpha stage), the rest should be perfectly fine. | 20:43 |
| Sire | guntbert: well, I was just looking into `ps`, but I have to do something else. I'll be back around to work on this later. | 20:43 |
| zykotick9 | !ppa-purge | iLogical | 20:43 |
| ubottu | iLogical: To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 20:43 |

| iLogical | guntbert, there is no /etc/sources.d | 20:44 |
| zykotick9 | Shano56: 32bit supports more hardware... someone that doesn't know what 64bit is, should be downloading 32bit | 20:44 |
| Shano56 | ahh | 20:44 |
| Shano56 | okay | 20:44 |
| Shano56 | I was just making sure there was no problems or anything with 64bit | 20:45 |
| Galvatron | Shano56: Also, 64-bit won't make much difference unless you know how to unleash it. | 20:45 |
| jrib | iLogical: /etc/apt/sources.list.d | 20:45 |
| Shano56 | i think 64bit would work well with a 64bit CPU? | 20:45 |
| Shano56 | :p | 20:45 |
| nitrohax | Galvatron, Taste the beast! MINOTAUR! | 20:45 |
| guntbert | iLogical: sorry it is /etc/apt/sources.list.d | 20:45 |
| iLogical | it says it's a directory | 20:46 |
| Galvatron | Shano56: In theory it should give a huge boost, but in the practice it depends on what are you doing. | 20:46 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | hey nitro i sent a dialouge box to tell u what it was doing | 20:46 |
| Shano56 | Galvatron, transfering files, and perhaps compiling some lightweight programs ? | 20:47 |

| Jordan_U | Pokinawa: From the LiveCD, to instll fixparts, either use Software Center and install "gdisk", or from the terminal run "sudo software-properties-gtk -e universe; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install gdisk". | 21:13 |
| Guest1232 | Galvatron: Yes it can but doesn't recognize any signals. Not my Router because Windows 7 and Windows 8 Beta Had no issues. | 21:13 |

| konradb | oozbooz: i cant set 1920x1080 with 1280x1024 | 21:29 |
| oozbooz | konradb: you want to force 1920x monitor to 1280 reso? | 21:29 |

| threexk | hello. How can you change the Ubuntu software update check frequency? | 21:32 |
| oozbooz | konradb: then you have to manually edit xorg.conf section for monitor | 21:32 |
| threexk | I want to check for updates more frequently--every hour. | 21:32 |

| jeremiah | fuzzynurfhurter, hurm. i take it as ubuntu 12.04 ? | 21:51 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | it has to be something with that %R must be some other thing | 21:51 |
| mrgt | mcphail, that is if it wasn't on the computer that had no Internet access! it mentions somthing about apparmor_parser | 21:51 |
| jeremiah | PatrickStar, #ubuntu+1 but it is for ubuntu 12.10 | 21:51 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | i updated it the other night and installed lubuntu desktop session lol | 21:51 |
| konradb | oozbooz: i think, Ubuntu takes those 2 monitors, like 1 big.. So 2 another, height resolutions aren't supported... | 21:51 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | yeah it should be | 21:51 |
| jeremiah | fuzzynurfhurter, so, ubuntu, or lubuntu? | 21:51 |
| danfo | "Unhandled error from system_setup_console: Permission denied" -- what have I done? | 21:52 |
| konradb | danfo: you need to use 'sudo' | 21:52 |

| fuzzynurfhurter | lol i installed it as xubuntu then upgraded that then got the lubutu desktop manager and it changes the greater screen and stuff lol | 21:53 |

| Ady | mrgt - as in gone ? | 22:05 |
| Pokinawa | mrgt: ok.. gimme one sec... trying to recall what i did today in the morning to sort that | 22:05 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | mrgtr type iwconfig to see if its atleast finding the card | 22:06 |
| mrgt | Ady, yea can view wired connections in settings but the wireless submenu has gone. | 22:06 |
| mrgt | Pokinawa, kk. thanks | 22:06 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | sry iwconfig lwan0 | 22:07 |
| Pokinawa | mrgt: try " lspci | grep -i ethernet" also please? | 22:08 |
| Seq | Has anybody else had playback issues with chromium on a nouveau system? Happens with Flash and HTML5. Firefox is able to play HTML5 video without issue. | 22:09 |
| mrgt | Pokinawa, that gives me a message. says something about pci express ethernet controller. | 22:09 |
| Seq | I'm not trying HD videos. Just regular tiny youtube ones | 22:09 |
| Pokinawa | mrgt: paste please | 22:09 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | pok it would have to be wlan0 | 22:09 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | instead of ethernet | 22:09 |
| Pokinawa | or eth0 ? | 22:09 |
| mrgt | Pokinawa, 2 secs | 22:09 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | wlan0 | 22:10 |
| Pokinawa | ah.. you are probably right... | 22:10 |
| Ady | mrgt typing iwconfig should give you something like this in terminal......can you advise what you get .....wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:"DrayTek" | 22:10 |

| Seq | Pokinawa: something something hunter2. | 22:11 |
| Pokinawa | Seq: I am sorry? what was that? | 22:11 |
| mrgt | Pokinawa, output of lspci was 03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 06) | 22:12 |
| mrgt | 22:12 | |
| Seq | Pokinawa: sorry, referencing an old password in IRC incident: http://www.bash.org/?244321 | 22:12 |
| mrgt | Ady, output of iwconfig was - lo no wireless extensions etho0 no wireless extensions | 22:12 |
| Pokinawa | ah.. lol | 22:13 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | mrgt type what pokinawa said but put wlan0 instead of etho | 22:13 |
| Pokinawa | mrgt: yes.. as fuzzynurfhurter said | 22:13 |
| mrgt | fuzzynurfhurter, Pokinawa, I don't get any output from that. | 22:13 |
| Ady | mrgt hate to say it but sounds like your wireless card has given up. if the OS is not seeing it ... | 22:14 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | true | 22:14 |
| Pokinawa | yep | 22:14 |
| mrgt | Ady, if I type lshw -C network it lists it. Does that mean anything? Or is it still likely to be 'dead' :( | 22:15 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | mrgt what network manager r u using?? | 22:16 |
| beandog | mrgt: run update-pciids, then pastebin output of lspci | 22:16 |
| rob_ | hi | 22:16 |
| rob_ | can anyone tell me why i cant install gdebi-core (no such package) when i've booted from the ubuntu livecd? | 22:16 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | pokinawa i got a notepad full of different commands writing down 4 later lol | 22:16 |
| beandog | rob_: I'm guessing you don't have access to all the repos that ship with a base install | 22:17 |
| rob_ | beandog: any idea how i can add them/ | 22:18 |
| mrgt | fuzzynurfhurter, I'm going to be a complete noob and say the one under settings-> network. I'm not actually sure what you call that? | 22:18 |
| beandog | rob_: should show up when you install ubuntu on something, and not use just the livecd | 22:18 |
| Pokinawa | fuzzynurfhurter: lol | 22:18 |
| rob_ | beandog: im using the livecd for testing so need to enable them really.. | 22:18 |
| mrgt | beandog, there was no output from that. | 22:18 |
| beandog | rob_: oh, dunno then | 22:19 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | to tell u the truth mrgt i dont know which 1 i got either lol | 22:19 |
| beandog | mrgt: output of lspci will have something | 22:19 |
| v3n0x | Hello, can anyone help me out. If I set a server to connect pptp, will I still be able to access it through it's static IP? | 22:19 |
| Ady | MRGT you could try a re-install but seen this issue many times and its normally the wireless card .. | 22:19 |
| beandog | Ady: I was having a similar issue this week ... wifi card is definitely in there, but doesn't list anywhere | 22:19 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | ive installed a differnt linux os and it made it work right | 22:19 |
| mrgt | beandog, sorry, wrong command. The wireless card is listed. | 22:20 |
| beandog | mrgt: k, pastebin it for me | 22:20 |
| mrgt | fuzzynurfhurter, lol | 22:20 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | mine was in fedora 16 though | 22:20 |
| malkauns | is there a commandline method of going to the user login screen without logging off? | 22:21 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | xubuntu found it and works good | 22:21 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | mgrt i have something that might help but u will have to get wicd | 22:21 |
| beandog | malkauns: are you trying to lock your screen or something? | 22:21 |
| beandog | malkauns: or switch users? | 22:21 |
| malkauns | beandog, switch users | 22:21 |
| beandog | malkauns: ah, I thought that was a menu option | 22:22 |
| beandog | next to logout and all that | 22:22 |
| malkauns | beandog, yea i'm looking for a commandline to do that | 22:22 |
| beandog | malkauns: oh, gotcha. sorry, dunno. -_- | 22:22 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | somebody stole my mouse | 22:22 |
| Sire | For a headless server, should I install anything other than the OpenSSH server and Samba file server options in 12.04? | 22:22 |
| mcphail | malkauns: ...why? | 22:22 |
| beandog | Sire: nah you should be good | 22:23 |
| PatrickStar | Does anyone know how to reset monitor configuration? | 22:23 |
| malkauns | mcphail, just like that screen rather than the default lock screen | 22:23 |
| beandog | Sire: I'd install webmin if you wanna admin it remotely | 22:23 |
| Alumin | PatrickMello: remove xorg.conf? define "reset" :) | 22:23 |
| mcphail | malkauns: but why do you need to do it from the command line? | 22:23 |
| malkauns | mcphail, so i can make a short key for it | 22:24 |
| Sire | beandog: mk, I'll look into that. | 22:24 |
| mcphail | malkauns: i think there is a short key already... | 22:24 |
| Alumin | malkauns: how advanced of a user are you? no offense :) | 22:24 |
| beandog | Sire: kk, have fun. It's super simple to setup | 22:24 |
| malkauns | Alumin, what is it? | 22:24 |
| Alumin | was gonna suggest using something like d-feet to look through your d-bus options | 22:24 |
| beandog | malkauns: oh, that's a cool idea. | 22:24 |
| PatrickStar | Alumin: My desktop resolution is messed up. | 22:24 |
| xcervo | hello guys, is ther any software in ubuntu, similar to translate-me? | 22:24 |
| PatrickStar | When I try to change it via GUI, it completely glitches up. | 22:25 |
| Alumin | PatrickStar: ah. Hmmm, well I suppose you could edit xorg.conf by hand but that's kinda ewww | 22:25 |
| beandog | malkauns: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/12182/gnome-logout-from-command | 22:25 |
| malkauns | beandog, i dont want to log out tho | 22:26 |
| beandog | I don't have fusa, so no idea what that does | 22:26 |
| beandog | did you read the page? :) | 22:26 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | mrgt?? | 22:26 |
| PatrickStar | Alumin: No easy way? | 22:26 |
| Alumin | PatrickStar: silly question, but are you sure you're changing to a resolution/refresh rate that your hardware supports? | 22:26 |
| beandog | fuzzynurfhurter: I think his network went down, heh | 22:26 |
| PatrickStar | Alumin: I don't know. | 22:26 |
| PatrickStar | I have an integrated video card. | 22:27 |
| malkauns | beandog, where can i get fusa? | 22:27 |
| PatrickStar | Probably part of the problem. | 22:27 |
| Alumin | PatrickStar: are you comfortable with the command line? | 22:27 |
| beandog | malkauns: beats me, never heard of it | 22:27 |
| PatrickStar | Alumin: Yus! | 22:27 |
| PatrickStar | PM me, too much distraction | 22:27 |
| Alumin | you can try running "X -configure", it'll spit out a config file | 22:27 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | dam that suck i have a pdf of how to fix his prob lol | 22:28 |
| ugur | /bar scroll nicklist * +100% | 22:29 |
| beandog | fuzzynurfhurter: yah, can I see? | 22:29 |
| beandog | I might need it | 22:29 |
| ugur | sorry i was trying weechat | 22:30 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | i messaged u been | 22:31 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | bean | 22:31 |

| trued0x | Trying to run Ubuntu 12 on my Macbook Air Late '10. Got everything installed except when I boot into Ubuntu it hangs at, ""drm] Initialized i915 1.6.0 20080730 for 000:00:02.0 on minor 0" Any suggestions? | 22:32 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | dam brb i think the dog stole my mouse | 22:33 |
| Ady | trued0x did you try this way - http://www.tuaw.com/2009/09/07/how-to-set-up-ubuntu-linux-on-a-mac-its-easy-and-free/ | 22:35 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | i guess she didnt but know the freaking keyboard wont work lol | 22:36 |
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, Have you tried Alt+F2 after it hangs? I found this: Look at post #9 https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=74728 | 22:36 |
| ugur | http://www.tuaw.com/2009/09/07/how-to-set-up-ubuntu │ AdvoWork │∫ Desktop | 22:36 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | i found it somebody hid it | 22:37 |
| anAngel | Hello. Anyone know of a wireless signal strength logger (monitor) not just a one time snapshot of all ssids with their stats? I want to be able to record somehow the strength changes of the ssids around. Thanks | 22:38 |
| Alumin | anAngel: wellenreiter, kismet | 22:39 |
| anAngel | Alumin: thanks i will look at them now | 22:39 |
| l403 | hello. | 22:40 |
| Alumin | anAngel: try kismet first | 22:40 |
| trued0x | ColonelPanic: Thanks let me check. | 22:41 |
| anAngel | Alumin: ok | 22:41 |
| kantlivelong | is there a good macro tool for mouse/keyboard thats better than xmacro? | 22:43 |
| Ashael | hi | 22:45 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | how can u change the password its a live boot i dont know what the passwrd 4 it is and never set it up | 22:45 |
| === Corey_ is now known as Corey | ||
| beandog | passwd | 22:45 |
| Ashael | I want to format and re-install ubuntu (unity is corrupt), but i can't seem to be able to boot from the flash drive (it's bootable). is there a command i can use from the terminal to boot from the flash drive? | 22:46 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | ok hell yeah thx lol im using an orph cracking live boot cd lol | 22:46 |
| trued0x | ColonelPanic: So what I did is boot w/ LiveCD and mount my Ubuntu partition. Then I looked for /boot/grub/menu.lst but I don't have that menu.lst file | 22:46 |
| d_a_v_e | exit | 22:47 |
| d_a_v_e | exit | 22:47 |
| phibxr | Ashael, that's all tied to your bios, and not to Ubuntu. | 22:47 |
| nibbler_ | if i run firefox as user a, i can access a site with an invalid certificate. as user b i cannot. the warning dialogue misses the "i understand the risk" part :/ how to fix? | 22:47 |
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, Try /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 22:47 |
| trued0x | nope | 22:47 |
| trued0x | only two files are gfxblacklist.txt and grubenv | 22:47 |
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, Really? | 22:47 |
| Ashael | phibxr: except i didn't touch the bios, and I can't access it either, I think ubuntu is preventing it somehow. besides, it's set to boot from the usb drive first. | 22:47 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | glad to know its as easy as changing the root too lol | 22:48 |
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, "ls /boot/grub" | 22:48 |
| beandog | Ashael: on boot, the BIOS screen might say there's an option to select boot menu. See if that's there | 22:48 |
| phibxr | Ashael, ubuntu can't prevent your bios, it loads before anything else on your computer. | 22:48 |
| phibxr | Ashael, nothing can prevent your bios except for a bios virus. | 22:49 |
| trued0x | waht does alt+f2 do? | 22:49 |
| beandog | trued0x: gives you a box to run commands in | 22:49 |
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, Alt+F2 takes you into command-line login from the graphical environment. | 22:49 |
| trued0x | that's the problem i cant even get to that part | 22:49 |
| Ashael | hmm. | 22:49 |
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, Wait, Are you on the usb drive right now? | 22:50 |
| trued0x | sda1 = usb drive sda5 shoudl be the ubuntu partition | 22:50 |
| trued0x | ive mounted sda1 - sda5 | 22:50 |
| trued0x | sda1 = already mounted when i try | 22:50 |
| trued0x | the rest is swap and my mac os x partition | 22:50 |
| mcphail | trued0x: if sda1 is on usb then sda5 will be on usb as well | 22:51 |
| beandog | ColonelPanic: no, thats ctl alt f2 | 22:51 |
| beandog | :) | 22:51 |
| ColonelPanic | beandog, :P | 22:51 |
| beandog | big difference | 22:51 |
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, Where is sda5 mounted to? | 22:51 |
| === sk8- is now known as sk8| | ||
| trued0x | ~/Desktop/disk | 22:51 |
| === VirtualBlackness is now known as L3top | ||
| trued0x | let me ask this, how can i make sure sda5 is indeed my installed ubuntu partition? :) | 22:52 |
| L3top | trued0x: sudo fdisk -l | 22:53 |
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, Go into disk utility and check. | 22:54 |
| trued0x | okay give me a sec | 22:54 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | what does $mft has invalid magic?? mean | 22:54 |
| Alumin | "invalid magic" sounds like some kind of file type detection failed | 22:55 |
| Alumin | just a guess though | 22:55 |
| beandog | or kernel doesn't support that binary type | 22:56 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | ok i was kinda thinking that but wasnt sure it is always talking about the filesystem | 22:57 |
| === zz_Htbrdd is now known as Htbrdd | ||
| fuzzynurfhurter | i just formated it to ntfs and it says that tried ext3 and got an error too | 22:57 |
| beandog | could be that | 22:57 |
| mcphail | trued0x: if sda1 is on usb then sda5 will be on usb as well. All /dev/sda* devices will be on the same physical disk | 22:58 |
| sp33drac3r | bye | 22:58 |
| ceti331_ | hi | 22:59 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | illegal triply indirect block found while setting bad block mode | 22:59 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | thats what i got doing it to ext 3 | 23:00 |
| crazyharry | #R | 23:00 |
| ceti331_ | question, is it possible for ubuntu unity to use multitouch trackpad gestures to trigger scale / expo | 23:00 |
| beandog | fuzzynurfhurter: what the crap are you doing over there?! :) | 23:00 |
| trued0x | okay so /dev/sda5 is the installed ubuntu partition | 23:01 |
| L3top | fuzzynurfhurter: what produces the magic error? doing WHAT "to" ext3? | 23:01 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | trying to get this HD back to working right man | 23:01 |
| L3top | and for the record, it is scruffy looking nerf herder. | 23:01 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | formating the HD to ext 3 | 23:01 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | i like mine | 23:02 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | that is what gparted gave as an error | 23:02 |
| L3top | So you have bad blocks on the drive fuzzynurfhurter? | 23:02 |
| === kubuntu is now known as Guest45405 | ||
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, Then go to where it is mounted (~/Desktop/Disk) and edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 23:02 |
| Guest45405 | How do you interrupt the boot process to run repair instead of the normal boot? | 23:02 |
| trued0x | There is no grub.cfg though :\ | 23:02 |
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, There is no grub.cfg on your ubuntu partition/ | 23:03 |
| trued0x | That's correct | 23:03 |
| L3top | fuzzynurfhurter: I would not use this drive for anything other than making a neat LED clock. | 23:03 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | something of that nature | 23:03 |
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, Then you might want to look in to re-installing. | 23:03 |
| trued0x | sudo mount /dev/sda5 ~/Desktop/disk | 23:03 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | i know its still good just have to set it right | 23:03 |
| ceti331_ | hi, q1 can the trackpad in a pc laptop such as sony vaio s series detect 3 finger gestures, [q2] can any linux window managers or effects use these for triggering. example being 3 or 4 finger drag for desktop switching or window movement as on Mac OSX | 23:04 |
| Guest45405 | How do you interrupt the boot process to run repair instead of the normal boot? | 23:05 |
| L3top | No, it is not "good", it basically has AIDS... and it is going to spread. As the medium continues to degrade fuzzynurfhurter. This is not an Ubuntu support issue. You have bad HW. | 23:05 |
| trued0x | i hav ea load.cfg | 23:05 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | i will get the gparted details | 23:06 |
| L3top | The gparted details will not make it an Ubuntu support issue. You have bad HW. | 23:07 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | what is HW | 23:07 |
| L3top | Hardware. | 23:07 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | i had it workin earlier | 23:08 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | as an ext 3 | 23:08 |
| Guest45405 | How do you interrupt the boot process to run repair instead of the normal boot? | 23:08 |
| trued0x | ColonelPanic: I'm going to try this http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2010/05/06/ubuntu-10-04-lucid-blank-screen-at-startup-workaround/ | 23:08 |
| L3top | Because it can intermittently work does not mean that it does work. You have a physical hardware problem, that will only get worse. I am not trying to be rude, but explain the reality of the situation to you. | 23:09 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | yeah cause theres no id on it | 23:10 |
| L3top | You need to buy a new hard drive fuzzynurfhurter. | 23:10 |
| beandog | Guest45405: isn't it a grub option? | 23:10 |
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, Go for it. Gl | 23:10 |
| beandog | in the bootloader | 23:10 |
| Guest45405 | beandog, It is, But when it boots it just skips grub and boots the OS, I need to know how to get to grub | 23:10 |
| beandog | Guest45405: oh, well you could just do what I do .... mash on the up key so grub knows you're giving keyboard input. | 23:11 |
| beandog | Guest45405: that way, it won't automatically boot into default | 23:11 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | thats what im saying guest mine does that and never shows the grub screen | 23:11 |
| ColonelPanic | beandog, That's what I do! | 23:11 |
| Guest45405 | beandog, Alright thanks, I'll try that :D | 23:11 |
| beandog | ColonelPanic: heh :D | 23:11 |
| beandog | the simplest solutions are always the best | 23:11 |
| beandog | Guest45405: What *might* be happening, is the monitor isn't init'ing fast enough, so grub is coming up, but you can't see it. | 23:12 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | no need to get a new 1 | 23:12 |
| Jordan_U | Guest45405: beandog: ColonelPanic: To unhide the grub menu at boot hold (don't "mash") shift. | 23:12 |
| beandog | Guest45405: so if you tell it you wanna select something, it could just take a second for the monitor to catch up is all | 23:12 |
| Jordan_U | beandog: Except when they're wrong :) | 23:12 |
| beandog | Jordan_U: oh yah? right on | 23:12 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | i can see the _blinking when mine starts up then a black screen | 23:12 |
| beandog | well I do the same thing on extlinux | 23:12 |
| Guest45405 | beandog, Nah, my moniter is pretty fast, I've never had that problem before, really | 23:13 |
| ColonelPanic | Jordan_U, But button mashing is fun | 23:13 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | mine only happens on this laptop | 23:13 |
| beandog | Guest45405: huh. Well when the screen is blank, you're just guessing anyway :) | 23:13 |
| Jordan_U | ColonelPanic: True. | 23:13 |
| Guest45405 | Ok, nvm grub, Hooray for logs. I'm appearantly getting this error at boot, Anyone know a fix? Could not open output pipe '/dev/xconsole' | 23:15 |
| beandog | whut | 23:15 |
| beandog | how did you get that? | 23:15 |
| trued0x | ColonelPanic: Is there anyway to tell if it's actually running that grub config during startup? | 23:15 |
| Guest45405 | syslog | 23:15 |
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, If you are presented with a menu to choose between differerent OS's that says "Grub Version X.xxx" then you are. In ubuntu the screen is default to purple. | 23:16 |
| ColonelPanic | trued0x, It's default to purple for the desktop version at least. | 23:17 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | i have to get my test boxc up and running to mess with that HD more | 23:17 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | mines black | 23:17 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | black and white | 23:17 |
| ColonelPanic | fuzzynurfhurter, By chance is it a server distro? | 23:18 |
| trued0x | Alright, I'm going to do Generic: xforcevesa and if that fails im giving up | 23:18 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | no i had a live cd of xubuntu | 23:19 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | well usb | 23:19 |
| Guest45405 | How do I make a blank file from the terminal? | 23:20 |
| fuzzynurfhurter | i used partition magic on that HD | 23:20 |

| Demlik2 | hi everyone. can somebody explain me how can i set up windows to my computer? | 23:37 |
| fishbait | ok | 23:37 |
| Devaki | Demlik2 , windows sucks! go buy a Mac! | 23:38 |
| jgrep | are there any tools to audit user commands on unix | 23:39 |
| Demlik2 | sorry man. i m from turkey and not rich enough to buy mac. | 23:39 |
| beandog | jgrep: eh ... like what? | 23:40 |
| jgrep | well we want to log every command typed by a user on the host | 23:40 |
| _riz_ | Can someone help me interpret what to do here for preseed network config? | 23:40 |
| _riz_ | https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/i386/preseed-contents.html#preseed-network | 23:40 |
| jgrep | auth.log does not have such info | 23:40 |
| jgrep | even if a user types ls /tmp it should ideally get logged somewhere | 23:40 |
| _riz_ | I don't quite follow what a 'preseed/run' script is | 23:41 |
| Demlik2 | thanks guys :/ see ya | 23:41 |
| beandog | jgrep: well, there's bash history | 23:41 |
| beandog | jgrep: aside from that, I dunno ... there's gotta be something | 23:41 |
| szal | Devaki: fanboyism sucks too | 23:42 |
| jgrep | point. but i need something at system level not @ user level | 23:42 |

| Kaleidoscope | So my kernel updated from 3.4 to 3.5, and if the 3.5 one tries to boot, it can't start the xserver, however my 3.4 can boot perfectly fine. Anyone know why this might be happening? | 23:42 |
| beandog | jgrep: yah, agreed. no idea. | 23:43 |
| jgrep | Vespuccian: yes .. stop using windows and u will get used to linix | 23:43 |
| jgrep | ok thanks beandog | 23:43 |
| sk8| | Vespuccian, download a distro burn the iso file and run a live cd or create a partition | 23:43 |
| beandog | Vespuccian: honestly? it just takes time. | 23:43 |
| Vespuccian | sk8|, maybe I should use a seperate HDD for installation. | 23:43 |
| sk8| | Vespuccian, you can if youd like | 23:44 |
| Vespuccian | beandog, sure. | 23:44 |
| beandog | Vespuccian: yah, do that. dual booting is good | 23:44 |
| Kaleidoscope | secondly, I'm running irssi, how do you ignore joins, parts, and quits | 23:44 |
| sk8| | it doesn't take much time to get use to any of the new distros | 23:44 |
| Vespuccian | jgrep, have you heard ESR? | 23:44 |
| Vespuccian | sk8|, but, | 23:44 |
| Vespuccian | sk8|, but, afaik, getting use to Linux takes time compared to getting use to..... | 23:45 |
| sk8| | not much any more | 23:45 |
| jgrep | Vespuccian: nope whats it | 23:45 |
| sk8| | if you use arch, bsd | 23:45 |
| jgrep | Vespuccian: but its awesome to be on linux.. | 23:45 |
| sk8| | then you'll have alot to get USE to | 23:45 |
| Vespuccian | jgrep, no doubt. | 23:45 |
| Vespuccian | Redhat is now a 1 billion dollar company. | 23:46 |
| jgrep | whts ESR | 23:46 |
