AnAntHello, I am using LDAP authentication on my machine, the problem is that lightdm (unity-greeter)  doesn't show all users on LDAP, neither does it allow entering an arbitrary user, how can I fix that ?09:00
ikoniaAnAnt: please don't cross-post your question in multiple channels, pick the best channel and ask in theere09:01
AnAntikonia: which is the best channel ?09:01
ikoniaAnAnt: up to you09:02

AnAntis pam-auth-update supposed to update /etc/pam.d/lightdm ?09:28
AnAntI note that it already includes common-* files09:29
ikoniaAnAnt: as I'm reading it now09:29
ikoniano09:29
AnAntso back to square one09:30
ikoniait looks like you will need to do that manually, I don't even think it's meant to update lightdm (it's questionable about if it should be designed to do that)09:30
AnAntikonia: but what should I add ?09:31
ikoniaAnAnt: it depends on the setup09:31
ikoniaAnAnt: have a little research on pam rules09:32
ikonia(also use what's there as an idea/guide)09:32
AnAntikonia: ok, there's another problem with lightdm, that it doesn't allow to enter a username (ie. I only can select from a list of usernames)09:34
ikoniasomeone has asked about that before09:35
ikoniaAnAnt: that is configurable......I just don't know/can't remember where09:35
AnAntah, greeter-show-manual-login09:37
ikoniawell done09:37
AnAntfunny thing is that the default is true !09:39
AnAnterm, maybe I'm wrong09:39
AnAntthanks10:50
Italian_Plumbergood morning.  I am testing a machine where I am adding a minimal GUI.  I have installed "gdm" and several other packages, but not the full GUI found on ubuntu desktop.  What is the package for the GUI program for adding and maintining users?  I can't seem to find it.11:09

SpamapSTheLordOfTime: did you need something?12:34
SpamapSItalian_Plumber: perhaps look into Lubuntu.. which gives you LXDE.. a very light weight desktop12:35
Italian_PlumberSpamapS: thanks, I had forgot about that... that's a good idea for what I want to do12:41
marc_12314I constantly have error message in my syslog with  "[drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: DDC responded, but no EDID for…"… is it possible to tell the system to ignore those messages so they don't get in the log??  (it's for a headless server with very old graphic card and very old monitor, only used so I can see the bios when I boot… so I don't really care about that error)15:00
marc_12314using syslog-ng btw15:01
JanCyou get that error repeatedly?15:04
marc_12314yes, something about the video card not able to identify the monitor I guess15:05
marc_12314every 10 seconds15:06
marc_12314you can imagine my syslog :P15:06
JanCI don't use syslog-ng, but maybe blacklisting nouveau is an option too15:07
marc_12314I see that the config file have some  destination / filter / log  settings… I found that  I can set a destination named d_drop with no destination, so it would simply drop those messages… but can't find how to filter what I need :/15:08
marc_12314how would you go about blacklisting nouveau?15:09
marc_12314(I hate that name "nouveau", it means "new" in french… make no sense to me that is the graphic card drivers :P)15:10
JanCI know french  ;)15:11
JanCI guess it was a word game: NouVeau to make a new NVidia driver  ;)15:11
marc_12314JanC: could be… I can live with that  :)15:14
JanCanyway, blacklist the nouveau module15:16
marc_12314If I blacklist that module, does it mean I won't have any screen output after the bios ?15:17
JanCI think it will use text mode instead of a framebuffer15:18
marc_12314so… I create a new file in  /etc/modprobe.d/   and simply put   "blacklist nouveau"15:21
marc_12314is that correct?15:21
JanCyes, afaik15:22
JanCthere might also be a way to disable EDID in nouveau, but I don't seem to have a manpage for it15:24
marc_12314ooooh, look at that, there's a loading screen on ubuntu 12.04…  I never saw that before :P  guess the driver was crashing, I always had a blank screen for 2-3 seconds before the login prompt15:26
marc_12314it worked perfect, clean log now :)15:27
marc_12314(well, kinda)15:27
JanCblame nvidia (Linus did it before you ;) )15:28
marc_12314lol, yeah, I saw that!  very funny15:28
JanCactually, the rest of that talk was a lot more interesting15:28
marc_12314didn't had time to look at the talk yet… pretty weird, I found 2 source for the full talk video (vimeo and youtube) in both case the screen goes blank when I load the page...15:33
marc_12314wow, every link I find that is supposed to have the full video goes blank… wtf….15:35
JanCmarc_12314: youtube/vimeo need JavaScript etc.15:41
JanCmaybe even Java and/or flash15:41
marc_12314JanC: everything else works, I can see all videos, but everything about that talk in full length, the page goes blank… really weird15:42
JanCyou have any content filter?15:43
marc_12314nope.   but closed the browser and now it's working…15:44
JanCnice, now you will see Linus explaining to the entrepreneur society why and how he avoided becoming an entrepreneur...  ☺15:45
JanC(but also saying thanks to the entrepreneurs who built their company on selling linux)15:46
marc_12314JanC, thanks a lot for your help.  I'll try to find time to watch that video later tonight.15:47

RedBeard_hello, does anyone know a good video capture software suitable for ubuntu-server ? and is it possible to run in non-GUI mode?19:53
RedBeard_for security type cameras19:53
RoyKRedBeard_: vlc or ffmpeg or ...19:59
RedBeard_ok great, is it possible to run it without starting the GUI ?20:02
RoyKRedBeard_: yes20:03
RoyKRedBeard_: ffmpeg is commandline only, but a bit hard to setup, vlc has commandline mode20:04
RedBeard_ok , i plan on running a virtual box running pfsense for my dhcp/firewall, etc.  i want to have as many resources available, while still capturing video20:05
RedBeard_i am currently running pfsense freebsd directly installed, but im not sure if i can also do vid cap, so i thought i would need to install ubuntu instead and Vbox pfsense20:07
RoyKRedBeard_: you want to capture video on pfSense?20:32
