[00:03] maybe it was too late, and the former version got allready installed? [00:03] you suggest doing that trism? === peto is now known as petoo [00:04] Wiz_KeeD: no, was just pointing out where the package was, I use the flashplugin-installer package (which just downloads the plugin from partner without adding it) [00:04] Wiz_KeeD: 32bit or 64? [00:04] and how does it work for you trism ? [00:04] 64 bit usr13 [00:04] perhaps you are using the wrong default java.... $ sudo update-alternatives --config java [00:04] $ sudo update-alternatives --config mozilla-javaplugin.so [00:05] Wiz_KeeD, you have done a 'sudo apt-get update' recently? [00:05] Dr_willis, it's a fresh install, ran it 2 days ago [00:05] 3 max [00:06] Wiz_KeeD: which browser do you use? could check about::plugins or chrome://plugins to see which version is being used [00:06] i tried chrome and firefox [00:06] hi [00:06] but i'd like to use firefox [00:06] Wiz_KeeD: http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/pool/partner/a/adobe-flashplugin/adobe-flashplugin_11.2.202.236-0precise1_amd64.deb [00:06] where should I put my JAVA_HOME variable? [00:07] i don't even see adobe plugin there trism [00:07] Hi all. I guess I had found a bug [00:08] Wiz_KeeD: it could be that it failed to download, may try removing flashplugin-installer, adding partner and installing adobe-flashplugin as usr13 suggests (or might try: sudo apt-get install --reinstall flashplugin-installer;) [00:08] Wiz_KeeD: I know I had a few problems with the plugin not downloading when they switched to the update-notifier hooks [00:09] Failure to download extra data filesName- [00:09] on reinstall [00:09] in a gui window [00:09] Wiz_KeeD: Can you please post the output of lshw -c cpu [00:10] Wiz_KeeD: adobe flashplayer is in Canonical Partner ppa.

There are many profile files, [00:13] petoo: ~/.bashrc will work fine. [00:13] Wiz_KeeD, purge does not touch anything in the users home dirs. :) neither does the normal apt-get remove. [00:13] Dr_willis, this means that it will still be "messy" ? [00:13] Wiz_KeeD: you'll then need to: sudo apt-get update; before sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin; [00:13] trism, doesn't that mean that i'll install ALL updates available? [00:13] Wiz_KeeD, no idea what you mean.. the apt-get system does NOT touch any settings or config files in the users home dirs.. [00:14] i really don't want to do that.. [00:14] Wiz_KeeD: if you want to remove everything related with that package, use autoremove [00:14] Wiz_KeeD: uname -a #What does it say?... [00:14] Wiz_KeeD: no update just updates the repository information [00:14] Wiz_KeeD, it would be very bad if it did. :) === lupinedk is now known as Lupinedk [00:14] Wiz_KeeD: upgrade and dist-upgrade are the arguments that will upgrade softare [00:14] BlouBlou, apt-autoremove?

What do I do to fix this? [01:06] hi all! [01:09] TiZ, perhaps it is going to sleep [01:09] when in openfirmware, typing dir cd;, \ I get a directory structure, however, typing any contained returns an error, eg dir cd:, \install\ fails... any suggestions?

How do I stop it from doing that?

[01:15] TiZ: I know it happens to me if I enable the autosuspend for the mouse in the tunables section of powertop (it's not enabled by default though) [01:16] trism: But laptop-mode-tools might be doing it.

[01:26] how would I add an option to omit those [01:27] naryfa, you can just install those applications as one-off applications [01:27] naryfa: most that you install will install those as well, and the configs will not be destroyed (in general) by a simple remove... [01:27] by most that you install I mean most DMs that you would install [01:28] escott: are you sure about those configs? because that's what I want to keep heheheh [01:28] naryfa, the configs are in your home directory which is never touched by apt [01:28] sorry that was to L3top [01:28] nice [01:28] much appreciated [01:28] so just reinstall the missing apps [01:28] has anyone else had any issues booting 12.04 to a clean system?

[01:35] ActionParsnip: does that mean every 56k modem should work worldwide as a general rule? I know I read there were some modems that didn't work in the US due to com ports only supporting up to like 8 and the US ISPs generally ran on 13. or something like that.

[01:44] DWSR: I would not put a whole lot of hope in the update basket. [01:44] My computer IS 6 years old [01:44] TheWhiteHatter: for you? Yes.... that might indeed give you some hope.

[02:04] igotchu, because it's cool [02:04] right>>> it use to be [02:04] xangua: It's telling me there is no disk in the drive [02:05] L3top: Anyway, the Laptop has an HDMI/VGA output, which is why I assume it says VGA1 disconnected. [02:05] L3top: And that's the right res for my panel [02:05] LVDS is the laptop monitor. Nothing else is connected. [02:06] I have to go eat... I will try to return another day. Thank-you for the assistance. [02:07] DWSR: lsmod | grep -Ei '(vesa|fbdev|radeon|intel|fglrx)' [02:07] I reallI really hope this works... [02:07] Actually, before I do something stupid [02:07] I'm going to put the BIOS update iso on my bootable flash drive [02:07] Using a program I loaded in Wine [02:07] Sound safe? [02:08] L3top: http://pastebin.com/Ke8L10F1 [02:09] No [02:09] TheWhiteHatter: [02:09] yes? [02:09] L3top: yes [02:09] L3top: Unity not starting is a new thing. Before it was starting properly. [02:09] (It is Unity as the default shell, right? Or are we back to Gnome?) [02:09] I would NOT try and update bios via wine to mount a manufacturers utility. Bad news... bad bad bad news [02:10] DWSR: Unity is a shell for gnome [02:10] cool [02:10] s/utility/windows utility/ [02:10] ActionParsnip: It's shellception? [02:11] cool, found an ubuntu compatible multiboot usb creator [02:11] is it safe to put the BIOS update .iso on a bootable flash drive? [02:11] DWSR: it simply replaces gnme-panel as the default shell. It's still Gnome desktop [02:12] TheWhiteHatter: try with unetbootin [02:12] ActionParsnip: Shellception sounds cooler. [02:12] ActionParsnip: :P [02:12] unetbootin only lets me put 1 distro... [02:12] DWSR: yeah... [02:14] DWSR: if 3d is giving you issues, try the 2D session [02:14] ActionParsnip: 1) It wasn't up until just now. I imagine that a complete reconfig of Xorg will probably fix it. [02:15] 2) I want it to work. Seriously. Why is this so difficult? AMD provides drivers for this. [02:15] <_cb> All of a sudden I don't have maximize/minmize icons for geany. How do I fix? [02:15] DWSR: didn'tyou say there was an itel gpu there too? [02:15] Okay, I shall use unetbootin [02:15] ActionParsnip: Yeah, it's the Intel/AMD hybrid. [02:15] even if it means sacrificing one of my precious flash drives [02:16] DWSR: therein lies the issue [02:16] DWSR: if it was ONLY ATi, then it'd be fine [02:16] Ubuntu just experienced it's third "internal error" in 5 minutes [02:17] TheWhiteHatter: have you tested your RAM using memtest from Grub [02:18] yeah [02:18] about 2 weeks ago [02:19] unetbootin [02:19] whoops, wrong window [02:21] how can i get rid of the toolbar on a second display? [02:23] hello? [02:23] zyx: howdy [02:23] DWSR: This is almost surely an exercise in futility... your ATI module is loaded, but it is not active on the intel header due to confusion... and I am stretched thin across channels... and I didn't like your SPAEK ANGLISH rant... Your best bet is to purge the fgrlx driver, reinstall the mesa drivers, install vgaswitcheroo, and live with it. I am afraid stuff I wrote needs support. Don't take it personally. [02:24] <_cb> minimize, maximize,close icons have disapeared for Geany everything else seems ok. How do I fix? [02:24] L3top: apt-get purge? [02:25] L3top: Or something else? [02:25] now thats a pain [02:26] _cb: same in the 2D session? [02:26] hello all :) [02:29] DWSR: http://pastebin.com/vvSarVVF [02:29] ok so I got kubuntu 12.04 installed on my SSD and for auto trip enabled (thanks to help from you guys) but like every other boot my bios seems to not be able to see the SSD. reboot another time or two and it seems to run a chkdsk or something on boot (black screen for a long time) then boots just fine. [02:29] L3pot: brasero is telling me my CD is full. [02:29] L3pot: it's brand new [02:30] <_cb> /msg NickServ identify cali [02:30] sorry TheWhiteHatter... have to handle stuff I wrote that broke. [02:30] afk [02:30] afchannel really... still. [02:30] auto trim* [02:30] <_cb> ActionParsnip yes 2d too [02:31] ActionParsnip: Help with brasero? it says my brand new cd -r is full. [02:33] TheWhiteHatter: try xfburn [02:33] installing now [02:34] oooh. . google said this is really a chat room. . . hahaha what a noob i am. googling IRC hahah [02:35] zyx: its a support channel, chitchat in #ubuntu-offtopic [02:35] #ubuntu-offtopic is a chat room [02:37] xfburn works great! [02:37] I'm just trying to decide if this is a linux, laptop, or SSD issue. it's like the bios just randomly likes to not see the SSD [02:39] oh thanks for that great info. "is a chat": noted. it just confuses me, seeing this codes in front of me. i feel like im inside an IDE. [02:39]
