| sinfuzi0n | How do you change your workspaces in 12.04? | 00:05 |
| xiamx | ActionParsnip, thanks, got it from dmidecode | 00:06 |
| ghostchick | sinfuzi0n: ccsm | 00:07 |
| sinfuzi0n | ghostchick, Thanks. Just downloaded it, but I thought there was an easier way like with gnome-panel | 00:08 |
| xiamx | if i use two memory of difference speed, PC3 8500 and PC3 12800, will anything bad happen? | 00:08 |
| ghostchick | sinfuzi0n: sadly no | 00:09 |
| sinfuzi0n | xiamx, both memory sticks will adjust to run at the speed of the lowest speed between the two | 00:10 |
| usr13 | sinfuzi0n: Alt-F1, F2, F3 etc. | 00:10 |
| usr13 | sinfuzi0n: or Ctrl-Alt-Right-Arrow, or Left-Arrow | 00:10 |
| romy420 | sinfuzi0n, do u mean switch between workspaces? | 00:10 |
| romy420 | right | 00:11 |
| sinfuzi0n | No, not to switch between workspaces, but to add/remove more | 00:11 |
| sinfuzi0n | xiamx, your memory will also only use one channel as opposed to two, if your board supports it, of course | 00:11 |
| ActionParsnip | sinfuzi0n: are you using compiz? | 00:12 |
| usr13 | sinfuzi0n: Isn't there a settings-manager? | 00:13 |
| usr13 | sinfuzi0n: ... and within that, should be "Workspaces" | 00:13 |
| sinfuzi0n | usr13, I'm looking through the options within CCSM now, but I still don't see anything related to workspaces, even after a search | 00:14 |
| ActionParsnip | sinfuzi0n: try myunity | 00:14 |
| sinfuzi0n | Just found it in CCSM under General Options | 00:14 |
| sinfuzi0n | Thank you for the help, guys =) | 00:15 |
| romy420 | myunity also does it | 00:15 |
| sinfuzi0n | CCSM -> General Options -> Desktop Size tab in case anyone else was wondering | 00:15 |
| sinfuzi0n | romy420, I'll have to check it out. Thanks | 00:15 |
| Dr_Willis | Just got a 128gb SSD on sale. Noticed its totally Unpartioned. getting ready to put Ubuntu On it. Anything i should watch out for or be sure to do when using it? Ive seen various guides on fstab tweaks.. but i mean partitioning wise. Got gparted started up right now. | 00:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Dr_Willis: add the mount option: noatime | 00:17 |
| Dr_Willis | Im looking at Gparted options now. :) should I align to MiB, or Cylinder, or NONE. I seem to recall there being some issues with SSDs in this area if not done right. | 00:18 |
| user1 | f | 00:20 |
| alankila | Dr_Willis: I guess the quality of alignment matters for some controllers only. Modern sandforce-based SSDs seem hugely complicated and basically will reinterpret anything you write, and compress and deduplicate it. I doubt it matters how you align it | 00:20 |

| cheetah2 | yes | 00:23 |
| Dr_Willis | One guide seems to imply you should leave 1 MB at the front of the HD unpartioned to insure alingment. but that guide may be out of date. | 00:23 |

| alankila | I guess there's a lot of recommendations for aligning start of first partition at the first megabyte. Might be more because of the 4096 byte sector drives. | 00:24 |
| diminoten | the responses are kind of crappy and noninformative | 00:24 |
| cheetah2 | i bet its microsoft | 00:24 |
| BarkingFish | They're spambots, they turn up, they spam, they get kicked, and leave | 00:24 |
| quinten | jrib: it's a temporary use for me, even $30 for more ram is a lot though, if i can use less. just needing it for browsing and connecting to remote desktop for now | 00:24 |
| romy420 | Dr_Willis, afaik it's best to start at 2mb = 2048k | 00:24 |
| elky | BarkingFish, they do it for reactions, so if you don't give them one, they get less joy | 00:24 |
| alankila | SSDs have a strong tendency to do their own thing regardless what you write and where, although they too operate at some granularity or notion of sector | 00:24 |
| jrib | quinten: try something like fluxbox or openbox | 00:24 |
| GeekAdmin | is Lubuntu faster than Xubuntu? | 00:25 |
| Dr_Willis | romy420: yea the guide sort of shows using 2mb then resizeing back to 1mb. (its a windows guide) ;) guess it wont hurt to leave 2mb unallocated | 00:25 |
| BarkingFish | elky, I'm aware of that. However, if someone asks a question about them, I'm not going to be ignorant and not answer it :) | 00:25 |

| SkeetDroid | whats your problem? | 00:27 |
| quinten | SkeetDroid: c# is based on java | 00:27 |
| Dogman | well anyone help me? | 00:27 |
| cheetah2 | put the cd in dogman | 00:27 |
| BarkingFish | Dogman, sure. What kind of problems are you having? | 00:27 |
| miwa | cheetah2: then your router may be lying to you :) | 00:27 |
| Dogman | Well | 00:27 |
| Dogman | I am using the windows live CD | 00:27 |
| tb2012fb | what is wrong with chrome in Ubuntu? | 00:28 |
| SkeetDroid | im aware, but its still rough starting. seems way diffrent the way it works | 00:28 |
| blackshirt | dogman, what the problems? | 00:28 |
| SkeetDroid | well, android dev at least | 00:28 |
| Dogman | but it starts up and the screen is small and in the top left corner | 00:28 |
| Dogman | and then it has the orange dots, and then it just goes to a black screen | 00:28 |
| BarkingFish | There's your first problem. If you're trying to install ubuntu, you need an ubuntu CD :) | 00:28 |
| cheetah2 | ouch. I had a similar problem and what did was buy a new computer that I was sure would work. | 00:28 |
| Dogman | I mean't Ubuntu. | 00:28 |
| Dogman | Ubuntu live cd. | 00:28 |
| Dogman | Anyway, my deadline is by tonight. | 00:29 |

| Dogman | or | 00:29 |

| Dogman | to a higher amount one. | 00:31 |
| blackshirt | p-chan, nothing...chromeium browser work flawlessly | 00:31 |
| Dogman | so we have to re-install, and I can't use wubi | 00:31 |

| SkeetDroid | how do i join the java chatroom on xchat? | 00:31 |
| IdleOne | SkeetDroid: /join ##java | 00:31 |
| BarkingFish | Ok. It's possible you may simply have a duff iso, Dogman - it's happened to me once or twice. The best thing you can do is to download the iso file again, and re-burn it to a fresh CD or DVD. If you're burning it from windows, I would recommend you burn the ISO using Nero if you have it available | 00:31 |

| cheetah2 | my router has a public proxied subnet. I dhcp ips to the router. it says it has a public address and that the firewall is open yet i cant access it from outside. | 00:32 |
| P-Chan | IdleOne: When the webmasters will replace html5 instead flash? | 00:32 |
| Dogman | Hm, we are using the same cd as before. | 00:32 |
| Dogman | when we first did it. | 00:32 |
| tb2012fb | I was wondering if there was a update for flash? In Ubuntu 12.04 | 00:32 |
| SkeetDroid | !register | SkeetDroid | 00:32 |
| ubottu | SkeetDroid, please see my private message | 00:32 |
| BarkingFish | Could be that the disk is damaged then, possibly. Sometimes if the disk is scratched, it can fail to pick up or continue with an install | 00:32 |
| miwa | cheetah2: what do you mean by 'public proxied subnet', and why is your router in posession of a such? | 00:33 |
| Dogman | Are their any other possibilities? | 00:33 |
| BarkingFish | as I say, your best bet firstly is to try a new blank CD or DVD, and get the iso file again, re-burn it and have another go | 00:33 |
| ActionParsnip | tb2012fb: can you use a pastebin and give the output of: lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark' | 00:33 |
| Dogman | Alright thanks. | 00:33 |
| AzzIzzA | Dr_Willis, ActionParsnip : noatime isn't really needed, it defaults to relatime now which is pretty much fine for ssd | 00:33 |
| Dogman | Might be back later, well see. | 00:33 |
| P-Chan | Anybody now websites that shared old computer pieces like ram memory like free software? | 00:33 |
| Dogman | Thanks again. | 00:33 |
| BarkingFish | Not that I can immediately think of, Dogman - if it's worked in the past off the same system, it's unlikely to be 12.04 which is the problem | 00:33 |
| P-Chan | *know | 00:33 |
| ActionParsnip | P-Chan: ebay | 00:33 |
| cheetah2 | the router says it gives computers on the network ability to be accessed from outside through a Public Proxied Subnet (NAT/Routed) | 00:34 |
| P-Chan | ActionParsnip: Ebay dont share | 00:34 |
| P-Chan | :P | 00:34 |
| Dogman | Bye guys | 00:34 |
| BarkingFish | More than likely the disk in the machine is the issue, or the disk you're installing from, and I'd start with the disk you're installing from first. If it still doesn't work, come back :) | 00:34 |
| blackshirt | om? | 00:34 |
| P-Chan | Like pc graveyeard | 00:34 |
| miwa | cheetah2: the router sounds like it doesn't really know it's stuff. =P | 00:34 |
| IdleOne | P-Chan: ask in ##hardware | 00:35 |
| madbovine | yo guys...how stable is alpha 3 atm? | 00:35 |
| cheetah2 | anyways I'm stuck and don't know what else to try | 00:35 |
| miwa | cheetah2: but it's probably using NAT to give the computers on the internal network access through it's WAN interface.. with that configuration it really can't 'give' the public ip address to any one computer on the internal network.. unless perhaps your isp has given you more than one IP address? | 00:36 |
| IdleOne | madbovine: #ubuntu+1 for 12.10 | 00:36 |
| BarkingFish | buy another pc, perhaps, cheetah2? :P | 00:36 |
| BarkingFish | sorry, I had to do it :) | 00:36 |
| quinten | so, short f installing a new destktop environment, no tips to speed things up? i ran the same browser in 10.08--it seems like something else is slowing things down. even the lubuntu environment keep skeeps freezing on me | 00:37 |
| === jdmackley is now known as jmack | ||
| cheetah2 | yes it says the isp has given me a subnet | 00:37 |
| cheetah2 | I do see logic in buying a new pc because if you cant even get the operating system to work you cant even do anything | 00:38 |
| miwa | cheetah2: well, then the subnet should be specified and you shouldn't be using dhcp, so then just set up the server with the public ip accordingly? | 00:38 |
| cheetah2 | im going to try giving the server a manual ip to see if that works | 00:38 |
| BarkingFish | /away | 00:39 |
| miwa | cheetah2: Most probably though you are using dhcp and your isp has not given you a subnet. ^^ | 00:39 |
| BarkingFish | sorry | 00:39 |

| aFeijo | I have a nasty problem with my 2 videos, the second one shows up at the login page, but after I enter my password, it turn off | 00:43 |
| bzzzz | .lastlog cheetah2 | 00:43 |
| cheetah2 | how does it work then if I don't have a subnet. Do I input the router ip along with the server local network ip in some way into my dns registrar? | 00:43 |
| IlikeMoose | where do i setup default programs to open a file? i want vlc to open my media files instead of mplayer | 00:44 |
| ActionParsnip | cheetah2: the subnet can be calculated if you use a 192.168.0.0 for example, the system will assign a class C subnet | 00:45 |
| ActionParsnip | IlikeMoose: in the cog menu -> system settings -> about | 00:45 |
| excelsior | benn: I had a hardware issue like that with my old Dell Inspiron, | 00:46 |
| MrGeneral | what client do you guys use (for ubuntu) to log into a kvm? | 00:46 |
| miwa | cheetah2: not really, if you only have one public IP address then that's what you're going to have to roll with. You could forward specific ports to specific servers on your internal network, but you can't address a specific machine inside the network from outside. | 00:46 |
| miwa | cheetah2: this will probably be easier if you just explain what you're trying to set up ^^ | 00:46 |
| cheetah2 | web server | 00:47 |
| MagneticDuck | if I trust that "echo *" will return only one directory | 00:47 |
| MagneticDuck | ..how do I cd to said directory? | 00:47 |
| MagneticDuck | I can do "cd *" | 00:47 |
| MagneticDuck | ..but.. | 00:47 |
| benn | excelsior: yep..its an inspiron | 00:47 |
| MagneticDuck | hm | 00:48 |
| excelsior | benn: there may be a hardware toggle that fails to activate the speakers when you remove the headphone jack. Some people replaced the failing hardware but risked damaging their motherboard. | 00:48 |
| MagneticDuck | okay, what I want to figure out how to do is channel the stdout of one program into the arguments of another | 00:48 |
| miwa | cheetah2: then just make the router "forward" the appropriate ports to the internal machine that's running the web server, you should also check out a dynamic dns service that will help you keep the domain name pointing to the right IP if you're using dhcp | 00:48 |
| benn | excelsior: ok ok..sounds great.. | 00:48 |
| excelsior | I got a cheap USB audio card for when I wanted to use my headphones (as the hardware somtimes would actually work) | 00:49 |
| MagneticDuck | I can create a variable, and then pass that to a program | 00:49 |
| MagneticDuck | but isn't there any other way to do that? | 00:49 |
| IlikeMoose | ActionParsnip: i went to system settings and details then default applications and it says "use vlc for video" but when i double click on it it still opens movie player | 00:49 |
| excelsior | if your speakers spontaneously start working, I'd have the usb soundcard there and stop using the regular headphone jack. | 00:50 |

| tom___ | hi. question: downloading ubuntu to install on macbook, have selected 64bit version but filename is ...amd64.iso - does ubuntu only come in 32bit for Intel? | 03:58 |
| L3top | Fusion_: how is your monitor connected to your computer... meaning what kind of cable? Are there any cable converters in between? | 03:59 |

| tom___ | is only 32bit Ubuntu offered for Intel Macs? | 04:02 |
| cgkades | tom___: i would think that if your mac is a 64 bit that 64 bit ubuntu would work on it | 04:04 |
| tom___ | isn't AMD64 different to x64 though? | 04:04 |
| L3top | I am very confused by this Fusion_. What kind of monitor is this? Having a dvi>vga converter would make sense... otherwise this monitor is just NOT reporting any information. | 04:05 |

| thomasbomb | How could I output grep results into an array? | 04:05 |
| cgkades | tom___: one is intel and one is AMD.. so yeah... but i'm pretty sure that the 64bit ubuntu works on it | 04:05 |

Everything works fine. Except when i press scan on the printer. It says "Computer not found. Ensure HP software has been installed on the computer.". I have the software installed but when i try to use HPLIP to find the printer wirelessly, it can't find any pr | 04:38 |

| L3top | bonny: sudo apt-get install i965-va-driver will be helpful.... but I am not sure it will change the output of the problem you are currently having with the video game. | 04:53 |
| bonny | So do i try laptops idea? | 04:53 |
| Jordan_U | rogan2: Inverted color? Upside down? | 04:53 |
| L3top | follow ActionParsnips advice bonny | 04:53 |
| bonny | Ok | 04:54 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: if you run: sudo updatedb; locate libk2.so does it output anything? | 04:54 |
| gb | too much noise in here for me to try and see answer to my question so guess the answer is no there is no sane ubuntu installer i can read thanks anyhow bye | 04:55 |
| rogan2 | Jordan_U: Upside down, have tried changing the settings, still occurs. And added startup command to correct it with timer, which does nothing. Opening and closing laptop lid corrects it, or xrandr -o normal but has no long term affect | 04:55 |
| ActionParsnip | GBD: the ubiquity app is the ubuntu installer | 04:55 |
| Jordan_U | rogan2: Can you see if the mouse's laser dims with inactivity, and undims on click? | 04:55 |
| bonny | its not saying anything after i entered my password | 04:55 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: give it time, the database needs to update | 04:56 |
| bonny | So what should I do? | 04:56 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: wait, when you get to the prompt again, it is done | 04:56 |
| rogan2 | Jordan_U: lazer dims for around 3 seconds, then turns off, turns back on (as dim) when button clicked | 04:56 |
| bonny | So theres no way i can play? | 04:56 |
| Jordan_U | rogan2: Are your BIOS menus upside down? | 04:56 |
| bonny | Please im sorry, but im not sure what you are talking about. | 04:57 |
| rogan2 | Jordan_U: No BIOS is fine, on boot ubuntu loads correct way up, then blacks and reloads upside down. | 04:57 |
| Jordan_U | rogan2: Does the mouse work normally on another machine/OS? If so, does the laser ever turn off? | 04:57 |
| bonny | It just says some sort of hack thing when i launch it from terminal | 04:57 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: did the prompt come back ? | 04:58 |
| bonny | Which prompt? | 04:58 |
| bonny | DO i run savage again? | 04:58 |

| rogan2 | I don't know if "sh Savage2-2.1.0.5-linux-installer.run --uninstall" works, I think there is an uninstaller in the folder | 05:15 |
| bonny | What? | 05:16 |
| bonny | How can I let you see? | 05:16 |
| rogan2 | bonny: run ./home/bonny/Savage2/uninstall | 05:16 |
| bonny | Ok | 05:16 |
| ActionParsnip | !cookie | rogan2 | 05:17 |
| ubottu | rogan2: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 05:17 |
| bonny | rogan2: Thanks it worked | 05:17 |
| subcool | could someone aid me for a min with a 12.04 installation.. | 05:17 |
| rogan2 | Should pop up a dialogue asking if you want to remove savage and it's modules, hit yes obviously | 05:17 |
| rogan2 | Cheers :) have a good day bonny !~ | 05:18 |
| bonny | Wait haha | 05:18 |
| bonny | Can you suggest any mmo games that might work? | 05:18 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: details | 05:18 |
| bonny | And that you are familiar with downloading | 05:18 |
| rogan2 | Hmmm, in Linux sadly things aren't too great in the mmo world... Browser based Runescape is probably the best you're going to get (depending if thats your sort of game) | 05:19 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: urbanterror if you like fps, it's like couterstrike with wall jumping | 05:19 |
| rogan2 | It's worth a try if you havent tried it | 05:19 |
| cfhowlett | bonny: upgraded alien arena | 05:19 |
| rogan2 | Shooting is lame (coming from the guy suggesting runescape). | 05:20 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: run: wget http://archive.getdeb.net/install_deb/playdeb_0.3-1~getdeb1_all.deb; sudo dpkg -i ./playdeb_0.3-1~getdeb1_all.deb; sudo apt-get update | 05:20 |
| MonkeyDust | bonny http://users.skynet.be/gbachot/html/games.html | 05:20 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: you can then use this to install some awesome games: http://www.playdeb.net/updates/ubuntu/12.04/ | 05:20 |
| subcool | cfhowlett, im going through the motions with the install, trying to install it onto a secondary primary (oxymoron?) partition of my Sda1. but its confusing me- im afraid its going to wipe the entire drive. | 05:20 |
| bonny | Thanks action | 05:20 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: you need the deb to add the ppa first :) | 05:21 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: ok, you want to go with the manual install, I think it's called "install something else" or some such at the partitioning stage. | 05:21 |
| subcool | i used the partitoin manager to chagne, and create a ext4 partiiton for it to install on. 13 gigs of space.. the Guided manager is selecting the correct drive, but the before and after comparison looks,, wrong? - | 05:21 |
| subcool | ya, i went there too- but.. | 05:21 |
| subcool | here, ill do it again anyways.. the guided one is scarying me.. | 05:22 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: so long as you havent' written changes to disk you're OK. Assume this is a dual boot? | 05:22 |
| bonny | It opened up software centre | 05:22 |
| subcool | cfhowlett, ya- | 05:22 |
| subcool | im in manual setup- | 05:22 |
| subcool | i see ALL the partitions my computer has,, | 05:23 |
| subcool | the drive location i want to install on is /dev/sda3 | 05:23 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: good. Take your time. (oh, and you DID back up everything, right?) | 05:23 |
| bonny | ActionParsnip: What do I do now? | 05:23 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: the website will, you can install any of those games once you install the deb file | 05:23 |
| subcool | cfhowlett, eh? - | 05:23 |
| subcool | mostly ya-- | 05:23 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: ok. /dev/sda3 is where you'll place your / partition. | 05:24 |
| subcool | ok.. so | 05:24 |
| subcool | should i delete the parition- or "change" it.. | 05:24 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: note: /dev/sda3 WILL be formatted probably as ext4 | 05:24 |
| subcool | thats fine | 05:24 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: change | 05:24 |
| subcool | i just dont want it to format the rest of the drive too | 05:24 |
| bonny | So, what do i have to after i install the deb file? | 05:24 |
| bonny | Install it from software centre? | 05:25 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: understood. you're ok so far | 05:25 |
| bonny | It says package doesnt exist | 05:25 |
| bonny | Check the spelling of the package name, and that the appropriate repository is enabled. | 05:25 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: after you install the deb, you can use software centre or the playdeb site to install the games | 05:26 |
| subcool | ok- seems simple.. i changed it to "use as ext 4" - i clicked ok to format.. and i put in mount point: " / " | 05:26 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: right, right. Question ... | 05:26 |
| === charlies_ is now known as charliesome_ | ||
| bonny | so i dont have to do anything after its in my downloads folder? | 05:26 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: I gave the full command you needed to download and install the deb | 05:26 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: do you want a separate /home or just put all your data under the root partition, i.e. / | 05:27 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: you need to install the deb file and then run: sudo apt-get update | 05:27 |
| subcool | cfhowlett, at this point- all in one roof. :/ | 05:27 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: advantage of dedicated /home is that you can save your data from install to install | 05:27 |
| subcool | what do u mean? | 05:27 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: fair enough. Size should be, oh, 6 Gigs for ubuntu and some number of gigs for your /home data | 05:28 |
| subcool | multiple boots, one home directory? | 05:28 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: no. multiple upgrades without whiping out your /data each time | 05:28 |
| bonny | Ok.. I have installed from chrome | 05:28 |
| bonny | Now what do i do? | 05:28 |
| subcool | ah- nah.. not this time. | 05:28 |
| subcool | i use to seperate /var. but- with only 13 gigss. not until i finish my backup | 05:29 |
| bonny | It says package does not exist on software centre | 05:29 |
| subcool | thats y im kinda backed up- im fixing my backup machine.. lol | 05:29 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: 13 for /? OK ... | 05:29 |
| subcool | ya- i know.. | 05:29 |
| subcool | ill expand it later | 05:29 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: ok, open a terminal and run: wget http://archive.getdeb.net/install_deb/playdeb_0.3-1~getdeb1_all.deb; sudo dpkg -i ./playdeb_0.3-1~getdeb1_all.deb; sudo apt-get update; rm ./playdeb_0.3-1~getdeb1_all.deb | 05:30 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: all one command | 05:30 |
| subcool | i have like 6 disks, with data spread across them ALL- | 05:30 |
| cfhowlett | !raid>subcool | 05:30 |
| ubottu | subcool, please see my private message | 05:30 |
| subcool | im trying to consolidate- and my backup- machine is going crazy.. so im reinstalling a x64 os to replace the stupid x32 i have.. | 05:30 |
| bonny | ok | 05:30 |
| subcool | oh- not raid. .lol | 05:31 |
| subcool | i have two drives alone that a dead because of that.. | 05:31 |
| subcool | once this is done-i have to crack them to get the info off them.. | 05:31 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: OK. Hey, BE CERTAIN you've backed up all essentials before you go forward. | 05:31 |
| subcool | ya, - the importatnt stuff is backed up- | 05:31 |
| subcool | the system itself isnt- but.. f' it | 05:31 |
| bonny | ActionParsnip: Is this a job for you.. just wondering. | 05:32 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: alright then we go forward. your root system and /home will be on /dev/sda3 | 05:32 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: nope, just chillin at work, itsquiet | 05:32 |
| subcool | great- :), lets just hope grub doesnt get destroyed and i cant boot into anything. | 05:32 |
| bonny | Wow its awesome for you to help people like me haha.. | 05:32 |
| bonny | Alright its done | 05:33 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: assume grub WILL get wiped and you'll just have to restore. aCtually easy (says the man who's had to do it WAY too many times) | 05:33 |
| subcool | i've done it a lot too- still cant stand it | 05:33 |
| subcool | im installing bootloader onto sda | 05:33 |
| bonny | I am able to install it now | 05:33 |
| subcool | or should it be sda3? | 05:33 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: its a good service | 05:34 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: Hey you DO have reinstall media for windows, right? bootloader to /sda | 05:34 |
| bonny | Actually srry no | 05:34 |
| bonny | I cant | 05:34 |
| bonny | Wats the command to intall it in terminal? | 05:34 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: generally, installing grub to OS partition is not recommended | 05:34 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: scroll up, its still there | 05:34 |
| bonny | I dont see it | 05:35 |
| subcool | cfhowlett, what? media for windows? | 05:36 |
| auditor | hai guys I am in bit of a trouble can someone help me its bit of an emergency :( | 05:36 |
| subcool | an install disk? - | 05:36 |
| ActionParsnip | bonny: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1120852/ | 05:36 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: Windows installation DVD or download the ISO from digitalriver | 05:37 |
| subcool | nope- | 05:37 |
| bonny | Haha :P | 05:37 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: yeah, an install disk | 05:37 |
| cfhowlett | auditor: details ... | 05:37 |
| obelus | I'm having some trouble with Samba server, I don't seem to be able to write to the share from other locations. | 05:37 |
| auditor | I a using Precise with Gnome shell > I can open the network manager by right clciking network aplet, but all options are greyed out inside the wireless network i am using such as the IP DNS and the options button | 05:37 |
| subcool | im sure i have one somewhere- but- not that i can recall... | 05:38 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: OK, so long as you have the windows activation key, you can download Win7 from digitalriver, make a boot USB and reinstall if necessary | 05:38 |
| rogan2 | obelus: Is the share write protected? As in you (your user?) only has authority to READ? | 05:38 |
| subcool | cfhowlett, thats a cool place.. never saw it before. ya i have a key. somewhere- lol | 05:39 |
| obelus | rogan2: I've tried a lot of different configurations, at the moment, it just has the comment, path, and read only = no | 05:39 |
| cfhowlett | auditor: first guess, check the hardware switch for your wireless. it should be ON and then your options should appear on the menu. | 05:39 |
| subcool | i was using the new win8, but ... then it crashed.. :/ | 05:39 |
| bonny | So I can just click install game from website and it should work? | 05:39 |
| auditor | cfhowlett : I am currently using the connection, am chatting from it , It is running but i am unable to edit any option | 05:40 |
| rogan2 | bonny: Sure will, it might pop up software center and make you click ok, or install there | 05:40 |
| iperich | Hi, I have a Logitech For Notebook Deluxe webcam working in a HP530 notebook, with Ubuntu 12.04, the webcam works OK in cheese and skype, but in Chrome and Firefox (flash plugin) it only shows a green screen, I think it is probably a flash plugin issue... | 05:40 |
| cfhowlett | auditor: as root you can't edit? | 05:40 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: uhhh, win8 is still beta IIRC | 05:41 |
| auditor | cfhowlett : how do open the network manager as root, it is not requestiong for password | 05:41 |
| bonny | Well rogan, Action cant thank you guys anymore | 05:42 |
| cfhowlett | auditor: if you're in root account, you should be able to edit. If you're in a regular user account, that option is not presented IIRC | 05:42 |
| bonny | Thanks so much. | 05:42 |
| auditor | cfhowlett : i am in admina account but i have to SUDO right how can i do that | 05:42 |
| cfhowlett | auditor: su -i I think | 05:43 |
| lkthomas | hey guys, any run proxmox on ubuntu 12.04 ? | 05:43 |
| auditor | cfhowlett : ya that part is clear, i mean what is the command for the network manager | 05:43 |
| subcool | cfhowlett, yea- i downloaded the alpha like last feb.. it was ok.. kinda buggy. | 05:44 |
| subcool | but workable | 05:44 |
| subcool | then... something stupid crashed.. virus.. something - idk.. but the system basically went nuts | 05:45 |
| subcool | OH YA | 05:45 |
| Jordan_U | rogan2: Can you pastebin the output of "dmesg"? | 05:45 |
| subcool | the sysx64 or something went into overdrive and decided it needed to take up 3/4 of hte hd. preventing me for doing ANTYING. | 05:45 |
| * ActionParsnip hi5s rogan2 | 05:45 | |
| subcool | so then while i went through some guuides to fix it- trying to delete the mass of the foler- the systm basically crashed.. | 05:46 |
| === `mOOse` is now known as m00se | ||
| cfhowlett | subcool: heh. You said "stable" ... | 05:47 |
| subcool | yea- it was.... until it crashed | 05:47 |
| subcool | until i crashed it- the verdict is still out | 05:47 |
| auditor | cfhowlett : ya that part is clear, i mean what is the command for the network manager | 05:48 |
| rogan2 | Jordan_U: paste.ubuntu.com/1120869/ | 05:48 |
| cfhowlett | auditor: nmcli I believe | 05:48 |
| cfhowlett | auditor: or nm | 05:49 |
| auditor | cfhowlett : sudo nmcli respond by printing connecyion details, hmm.. the network manager is actuall the system settign window with network selected , any clue? | 05:50 |
| subcool | cfhowlett, so it just fniished install- now on reboot.. lets see how it goes :) | 05:50 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: good luck. see you soon. | 05:50 |
| subcool | nah- | 05:51 |
| subcool | didnt really work | 05:51 |
| cfhowlett | auditor: sorry. time to you to hit the man pages for nm and nmcli. | 05:51 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: details | 05:51 |
| subcool | it booted into the old bootloder... | 05:51 |
| qichao | any one here? | 05:51 |
| subcool | i guess that is ok- i just have to add it to this bootloader right? | 05:51 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: did you direct where the bootloader should go? | 05:51 |
| Jordan_U | rogan2: I don't see anything helpful there. For the screen problem can you pastebin the output of "xrandr" | 05:51 |
| subcool | yea | 05:51 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: only guess here that the new bootloader found and chained the old bootloader. Does the system start? | 05:52 |
| Jordan_U | subcool: Where did you install grub's boot sector? | 05:52 |
| subcool | the computer turns ON- but i only see my old ubuntu grub, | 05:52 |
| auditor | cfhowlett : ok :) will come back after trying k | 05:52 |
| subcool | Jordan_U, didnt really give me an option | 05:53 |
| subcool | should i load up ubuntu and "fix" grub? or just update it? | 05:53 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: does ubuntu boot at all? | 05:53 |
| Jordan_U | subcool: You just said that you did "direct where the bootloader shoild go". | 05:54 |
| cfhowlett | or windows for that matter | 05:54 |
| subcool | the grub is v. 1.99 | 05:54 |
| rogan2 | Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1120880/ | 05:54 |
| subcool | Jordan_U, i directed it to sda- but- aside fromt hat.. | 05:54 |
| Jordan_U | subcool: Ok. Are you sure that your BIOS is booting from sda? | 05:55 |
| subcool | Jordan_U, i have no clue where my bios is booting from- lol | 05:55 |
| subcool | i have three drives in there.. | 05:55 |
| subcool | i could change the boot order to see if it changes antying.. | 05:56 |
| subcool | i thought the new bootloader would have taken precidence | 05:56 |
| Jordan_U | subcool: Try changing the boot order, or configure grub to install to all drives. Either should work. | 05:56 |
| soulstitchmmo | What is the point of empathy? | 05:57 |
| subcool | cfhowlett, i got the original ubuntu up. | 05:57 |
| subcool | but my network appears to be astray again.. | 05:57 |
| subcool | im going to reboot and chagne the boot order... | 05:57 |
| Jordan_U | subcool: BIOS doesn't work that way. Nothing the OS does can change which drive the BIOS tries to boot first. | 05:57 |
| soulstitchmmo | What is that Evnvelope up in the upper right hand corner called? | 05:58 |
| subcool | well- that appeared to do soemthing.. | 06:00 |
| subcool | im quite confused- and believe i have to fix this- but i guess we made progress. thanks a lot for the help | 06:00 |
| soulstitchmmo | What is the envelop with the messenger in it and other social media called at the top near the clock? | 06:01 |
| subcool | I booted from the HD i installed kubuntu, it appeared to have found the other versions i have on the drives? but when it auto started on what i thought was the old drive, brought me into the NEW DRIVE. | 06:01 |
| cfhowlett | soulstitchmmo: right click and check the properties or "about" | 06:01 |
| cfhowlett | subcool: good luck. | 06:01 |
| gaelfx | cfhowlett: not in 12.04 | 06:02 |
| soulstitchmmo | cfhowlett: there are no properties to click | 06:02 |
| vectorshelve | can anyone help me with the installation of webex Meeting center app for ubuntu 12.04 ? | 06:03 |
| gaelfx | soulstitchmmo: you could run a search for the word "applet" on your /usr folder I think and it would tell you what applets you have, should be easy enough to figure out which is which | 06:03 |
| soulstitchmmo | it comes default in ubuntu, you guys honestly don't know what it's called? | 06:03 |
| cfhowlett | soulstitchmmo: follow gaelfx's method and you'll find out for yourself ... | 06:04 |
| subcool | Ok- well. im in Kubuntu- but .. i have no internet. I am plugged in via ethernet.. | 06:06 |
| obelus | I asked earlier, but I think it's been long enough to try again, my Samba server is denying write access from remote clients, I've tried with write list, and currently have writeable=yes, read only = no | 06:06 |
| ActionParsnip | vectorshelve: https://linuxsagas.wordpress.com/2010/03/05/webex-working-again-in-ubuntu-9-10-64bit/ | 06:07 |
| soulstitchmmo | I read through the apps, and I still don't know which it is. Can someone tell me what the name of the program that has the envelope icon in the upper right hand corner of the screen? | 06:07 |
| subcool | the network manager sees the connection.. and states the last conenction was an hour ago- but... im not connected... | 06:07 |
| subcool | and according to ifconfig - i do not have IP | 06:07 |
| cfhowlett | soulstitchmmo: "indicator plugin" if I'm not mistaken | 06:08 |
| soulstitchmmo | that's not coming up in the software center. I want to read to see what it does because I never use it and if it's not useful I want to remove it. | 06:08 |
| vectorshelve | ActionParsnip: thanks mate but mine is 32 bit and ubuntu 12.04 ? | 06:09 |
| obelus | soulstitchmmo: isn't it Empathy? | 06:09 |
| cfhowlett | soulstitchmmo: indicator app won't appear in the software center as it's integrated in the OS, NOT an add-on. You can turn it off, but think long and hard about removal | 06:09 |
| soulstitchmmo | I removed empathy but that envelop is still there. | 06:09 |
| ActionParsnip | vectorshelve: should still apply | 06:10 |
| vectorshelve | ActionParsnip: thanks mate ;) | 06:10 |
| User98541 | Is it possible to disable USB Flash drives, but not USB Keyboard/Mouse? | 06:12 |
| gaelfx | soulstitchmmo: it's part of ubuntu-desktop, and I think indicator applet is the name, or at least close to the name | 06:13 |
| gaelfx | soulstitchmmo: a lot of things don't show up in software center, you need to try synaptic | 06:13 |
| gaelfx | soulstitchmmo: also, removing it will mean you would have to remove ubuntu-desktop meta-package, and it's probably only a couple hundred KB | 06:14 |
| iceroot | User98541: you can stop the auro-mounting of extra partitions like usb flashdrives so only root-users can mount it by hand | 06:14 |
| gaelfx | soulstitchmmo: if you don't want it to show up, then you can probably just remove the .desktop file for it | 06:14 |
| User98541 | iceroot, how do I do that? | 06:15 |
| noob_ | hi people | 06:15 |

| iperich | Hi, I have a Logitech For Notebook Deluxe webcam working in a HP530 notebook, with Ubuntu 12.04, the webcam works OK in cheese and skype, but in Chrome and Firefox (flash 11 plugin) it only shows a green screen, I think it is probably a flash plugin issue... any thoughts? | 06:16 |
| ActionParsnip | iperich: did you allow flash access to the webcam? | 06:17 |
| iperich | yes, in fact the green screen shows when i give the access to flash ("allow" button) | 06:17 |
| ActionParsnip | iperich: can you give a pastebin of the output of: lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark' | 06:18 |
| === friskd_ is now known as friskd | ||

| === noob_ is now known as noob__ | ||
| iperich | ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1120906/ | 06:19 |
| gaelfx | Kartagis: I believe that's a known bug with flash on linux | 06:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Kartagis: windows is a completely differet OS with different support so what it does isn't terribly valuable | 06:20 |
| lotuspsychje | Kartagis:did you install flash from web or software centre? | 06:20 |
| Kartagis | gaelfx: I tried with both chromium and firefox | 06:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Kartagis: sudo mkdir /etc/adobe; echo "OverrideGPUValidation=true" | sudo tee /etc/adobe/mms.cfg > /dev/null | 06:20 |
| subcool | why the hell does ubuntu release stuff thats NOT ready to be released | 06:20 |
| Kartagis | lotuspsychje: I think so, yes | 06:21 |
| lotuspsychje | Kartagis:lol wich one? | 06:21 |
| lotuspsychje | subcool: what do you mean? | 06:21 |
| subcool | cfhowlett, thanks for the help -but it appears it was a waste of our time. | 06:21 |
| ActionParsnip | iperich: if you remove flashplugin-installer and flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound and enable the partner repo, then install the adobe-flashplugin package, is it ok? | 06:21 |
| subcool | 12.04 has massive ntworking issues.. | 06:21 |
| Kartagis | lotuspsychje: oh sorry, software centre | 06:21 |
| ActionParsnip | Kartagis: the command I gave will fix it | 06:21 |
| lotuspsychje | subcool: what kinda issues? | 06:22 |

| cfhowlett | subcool: sorry I couldn't be more helpful. FWIW, multi-disk would seem to be a raid thing ... | 06:22 |
| subcool | cfhowlett, no- u were of help. ubuntu 12.04 isnt ready to be used.. thats all | 06:22 |
| soulstitchmmo | thanks gaelfx | 06:22 |
| cfhowlett | Dayofswords: back in the day, ffmepg would be your route, but now it's avconv or some such. command line. | 06:22 |
| iperich | ActionParsnip: let me try that, i'll tell you | 06:22 |
| subcool | lotuspsychje, i am plugged in via ethernet- network manager sees the connects, and records the fact that it exist, but it doesnt connect | 06:23 |
| SwedeMike | subcool: I think it depends on what hw you have, I am running 12.04 on multiple devices and some are rock solid, some have wifi issues, you might have another issue. | 06:23 |
| subcool | i have no ip | 06:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Dayofswords: http://linuxpoison.blogspot.co.uk/2009/12/extract-images-from-video-or-create.html | 06:23 |
| cfhowlett | Dayofswords: perhaps gimp has an option | 06:23 |
| lotuspsychje | subcool: maybe you are the one to tweak the network..its easy to blame ubuntu | 06:23 |
| Kartagis | ActionParsnip: do I need to log out/in? | 06:23 |
| subcool | lotuspsychje, fresh install? | 06:23 |
| subcool | nothing to be tweaked | 06:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Kartagis: no just kill all browsers and rerun | 06:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Dayofswords: source: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ubuntu+extract+images+from+video | 06:23 |
| lotuspsychje | subcool: did you install network card drivers correctly? | 06:24 |
| soulstitchmmo | ok I want to delete indicator-application.desktop but it won't let me. Is there a keyboard short cut or something or do I have to go to terminal? | 06:24 |
| Kartagis | ActionParsnip: because it doesn't seem to have worked | 06:24 |
| subcool | lotuspsychje, no network to install the stuff.. | 06:24 |
| subcool | ill just browse through additional drivers and.. ...? | 06:24 |
| lotuspsychje | subcool: try adding the cdrom as source in software centre and find your network drivers | 06:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Kartagis: you need to play with the mms.cfg file, til you get an ok image | 06:24 |
| ActionParsnip | soulstitchmmo: prefix the command with sudo and you can do as you please | 06:25 |
| soulstitchmmo | ActionParsnip: I know that, but is there a way to do it from the desktop or do I need to go to terminal? | 06:25 |
| lotuspsychje | subcool: in windows a fresh install needs even more drivers installed.. | 06:25 |
| gr33nion_ | hello every one | 06:25 |
| gaelfx | soulstitchmmo: no problem | 06:25 |
| ActionParsnip | soulstitchmmo: you can run: gksudo nautilus $HOME and do it in GUI if you want | 06:26 |
| cfhowlett | gr33nion_: greetings | 06:26 |
| gaelfx | soulstitchmmo: where are you trying to delete it from? | 06:26 |
| soulstitchmmo | gaelfx: from the browser window. | 06:26 |
| soulstitchmmo | gaelfx: I know I can do it from terminal, but I hear people talk about how Ubuntu is all point and click, so I am wondering if I am doign stuff wrong. | 06:27 |

| gr33nion_ | hello | 06:28 |
| cfhowlett | gr33nion_: state your issue | 06:29 |
| subcool | lotuspsychje, imma give it a whirl now- thanks.. | 06:29 |
| gaelfx | soulstitchmmo: what I meant was from which path? Where is the desktop file on the filesystem? You probably need to use a terminal either way, but once you decide to use the terminal you can just start a file manager with root priveleges so it will be point and click, though I'm not a fan of that method since it makes it easy to delete things you don't really want to delete | 06:30 |
| lotuspsychje | subcool: ok good luck, try to findout wich network driver u got | 06:30 |
| subcool | ya- im on it now | 06:30 |
| soulstitchmmo | gaelfx it was a .desktop in /usr/share/applications and if I have to open a terminal anyways then I would rather just do it in the terminal myself. | 06:30 |
| subcool | Hey GUys.. i have a question- NOT related.. i know- but hear me out. | 06:30 |
| iperich | ActionParsnip: i installed the partner repo and the flashplugin-installer from there and the problem remains... maybe a bug? | 06:31 |
| gaelfx | soulstitchmmo: what I would do is "sudo rm $filepath/$filename", but that's me :P | 06:31 |
| Kartagis | lotuspsychje: do facebook and chromium use different flash? because it looks fine on facebook | 06:31 |
| lotuspsychje | Kartagis:did you try what ActionParsnip told you? | 06:31 |
| gaelfx | soulstitchmmo: to delete a file in terminal, use the 'rm' command, but for that file you'll need 'sudo' in front of it, which asks for your password. It's a good idea to read "man rm" before you do it though, as there might be options you would want to use | 06:32 |
| Kartagis | yes, it didn't work | 06:32 |
| soulstitchmmo | thanks gaelfx | 06:32 |

| ubottu | fidel_, please see my private message | 06:32 |
| lotuspsychje | Kartagis: rebooted after? | 06:32 |
| gaelfx | soulstitchmmo: no problem. I had to remove an extra bluetooth applet recently that popped up when I installed lubuntu-desktop, so that's the only reason I had any idea how to help :P | 06:33 |
| Kartagis | no, he told me I didn't need | 06:33 |
| Kartagis | let me try anyway | 06:33 |
| lotuspsychje | Kartagis: you could try uninstall the flash and reinstall from web maybe | 06:33 |
| subcool | My Girlfriend Ran into a friend of hers from HIghschool (a guy), the three of us were talking for hours. The guy is actually pretty cool. According to her they were best friends- but they just stopped talkng after highschool. SO while we are "catching up" the GUy made mulitple points to get me to seperate from their conversation and wait in the car- so that we could try to leave. But during those conversation, he decided to go | 06:34 |
| subcool | out of his way and tell her how much he liked her in high school, and she was such a great girl. He'd liked her for years. He's soo happy he ran into her, etc. etc. Mind you- he told her this IN FRONT OF ME. In my opinoin obviously flirting, and since then. he makes sure to message her a few times a day. Trying to hang out constantly. Is this inappropraite? | 06:34 |
| Kartagis | lotuspsychje: how do I find out what flash version I have? | 06:34 |
| subcool | sorry for the mass msg :/ | 06:34 |
| lotuspsychje | !ot | subcool | 06:34 |

| iperich | Kartagis: lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark' | 06:36 |
| lotuspsychje | Kartagis:just goto adobe flash page to see if u got latest | 06:36 |
| fidel_ | gaelfx: k - basically i was just checking if the rm factoid is helpful for the context | 06:37 |
| fidel_ | before i send it to someone else ;) | 06:37 |
| Kartagis | lotuspsychje: 11.2 | 06:37 |
| lotuspsychje | kartagis: i would just try a reinstall from web, or other way around from software centre, does the trick sometimes | 06:38 |
| gaelfx | fidel_: that one is more a warning about the joke people used to like to play making people remove their entire filesystem | 06:38 |
| gaelfx | fidel_: I generally just tell people to read the manpage, since it gives you a good idea what sort of things you can really do with that command :D | 06:39 |
| Kartagis | lotuspsychje: hmm, I get this: If you are using the Google Chrome browser, Adobe® Flash® Player is built-in but has been disabled. | 06:39 |
| fidel_ | gaelfx: yeah i tend to use man pages as well ..on the other side some users seem to start hating you if you link refer to man pages (whyever) hehe...anyway we/me is getting offtopic ;) | 06:42 |
| BUSTACAP | Is there a way for grep to delete a file after it's done searching it for a certain line of text if it doesn't find it? | 06:49 |
| gaelfx | BUSTACAP: sounds like a job for a script | 06:50 |
| gaelfx | BUSTACAP: and an excellent opportunity to learn some python, if you don't know it already | 06:50 |
| cfhowlett | BUSTACAP: yes. scripts, my friend. | 06:51 |
| BUSTACAP | I don't know python, but basically I know the grep command to search through a folder of text files for a line that I'm searching for. | 06:52 |
| BUSTACAP | I just want the files deleted after if it doesn't find it o.O | 06:52 |
| Kartagis | *sigh* still blue | 06:52 |
| gaelfx | BUSTACAP: well, with a script, you can use that knowledge of grep pretty easily, as for doing it straight in one terminal command, I'm betting there's a way, but I have no idea what it is | 06:53 |
| BUSTACAP | Well yeah, a script would be good. I'm just not so good at bash scripting yet. Took me a while to get it to write the 2million files I'm searching through. | 06:54 |
| BUSTACAP | Just the problem is my power goes out a lot where I live, so since all the files are still there and it doesn't delete after it searches it, I may have to run the script again and again. | 06:54 |
| saruji | Hello, could anyone point me in the direction of supported wirelss cards? | 06:55 |
| saruji | like the Atheros AR5009 | 06:55 |
| gaelfx | BUSTACAP: well, that's why I suggest you use python, since if you learn a little, you'll probably find lots of other times it will be useful | 06:55 |
| cfhowlett | saruji: "ubuntu hardware compatibility list" | 06:55 |
| BUSTACAP | gaelfx, ok. I'll look into it. | 06:55 |

| lotuspsychje | wachpwnski:maybe its your pc that is slow? | 06:57 |
| cfhowlett | wachpwnski: speed is at least partially limited by available ram... | 06:57 |
| Ben64 | usb drives are usually slow too | 06:57 |

| wachpwnski | Is there anyway I can just do a system specific install on a usb device? | 06:58 |
| lotuspsychje | wachpwnski:define specific? | 06:59 |
| gaelfx | wachpwnski: yes, you can do a full install on a sufficiently large USB drive, it's how my mainbox runs | 06:59 |
| cfhowlett | wachpwnski: customized to certain specs? sure. | 06:59 |
| wachpwnski | Do I have to format the usb device first? | 06:59 |
| cfhowlett | wachpwnski: for best results, yes | 07:00 |
| wachpwnski | I have a 16gb disk | 07:00 |

| Starshaft | Here it goes, i'm running a dual, windows 7, and ubuntu 12.04, and my internet for ubuntu isn't working. My network card is a Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 1030, when log on to ubuntu the internet works for a couple of seconds (enoguh to load a page) then cuts out complety even though its still connected. | 07:03 |
| Starshaft | would appreciate some help | 07:03 |
| zzats | Starshaft: have you taken a look of the output of dmesg? | 07:04 |
| cfhowlett | Starshaft: so it works just fine when in Win7?? | 07:04 |
| JordanK | Starshaft, mine did that too for some reason. I just went out and bought a long ethernet cable to fix my problem. Avoid wireless :P | 07:04 |
| Starshaft | yupe it works fine for win7 | 07:04 |
| JordanK | I tried everything to fix it. | 07:05 |
| Starshaft | on it as we speak | 07:05 |
| JordanK | Tried using ndiswrapper to use the windows wireless drivers and it made it worse. | 07:05 |
| cfhowlett | Starshaft: listen to the jordank. Great wisdom he has. | 07:05 |
| Starshaft | how do i look at the dmesg output? | 07:05 |
| Starshaft | the problem is, im very portable. | 07:05 |
| Starshaft | i need ubuntu working on the go | 07:06 |

| JordanK | My wifi worked back then. | 07:11 |
| JordanK | You should be fine with that. | 07:11 |
| cfhowlett | Starshaft: allow me to advise against. Best bet is to stick with LTS release, i.e. 10.04 | 07:11 |

| lotuspsychje | howcome pysdm resets user permission next boot? | 07:14 |
| saruji | what is it about linux that makes it easy or more flexible for programming? Just saying that I can get eclipse on windows also...? | 07:15 |
| gaelfx | saruji: Linux uses less RAM, so is easier to run more VMs in it for testing on multiple platforms | 07:15 |
| fidel_ | saruji: another aspect is package-management | 07:15 |
| fidel_ | it should make updating your dev environment less time-consuming | 07:16 |
| fidel_ | as you get almost all updates via apt | 07:16 |
| wachpwnski | stinks when I don't have a cdrom drive | 07:16 |
| wachpwnski | or a spare usb thumby | 07:16 |
| saruji | gaelfx: is that really a good solution...also do other platforms run better through VM's on linux...like virtualbox? | 07:16 |
| wachpwnski | haha | 07:16 |
| fidel_ | thats a real timesaver on a long term view | 07:16 |
| JordanK | Is there any program like cdma workshop, or qpst for ubuntu without using wine? | 07:16 |
| saruji | fidel_: could you explain I am not sure what you meant, package-management? | 07:16 |
| === adrian is now known as adrianrly | ||
| fidel_ | saruji: do you know apt? | 07:17 |
| gaelfx | saruji: I'm not sure what you mean by running better, but the solution is an often used one, so it must not be too bad | 07:17 |
| saruji | fidel_: sort of, it initiates my packages to update via apt-get update or install | 07:17 |
| saruji | gaelfx: guess my question is if virtualbox or vmware runs better on linux/ubuntu instead of windows or mac | 07:18 |
| fidel_ | saruji: well - now compare that with updating your entire windows-development system which will take way more time - and user interaction. thats 1 aspect how i save time using linux compared to other systems | 07:18 |
| saruji | gaelfx: better by faster | 07:18 |
| saruji | gaelfx: better by less problems | 07:19 |
| gaelfx | saruji: I've never used virtualization solutions on other platforms, so I really don't know | 07:19 |
| lotuspsychje | saruji:faster depends on what actual hd, cpu, ram | 07:19 |
| saruji | fidel_: sweet thanks :) | 07:19 |
| nomad99 | saruji: plus file system fragmentation really isn't an issue like windows | 07:19 |
| saruji | lotuspsychje: which is more efficient, or is that a legit question to ask here? | 07:19 |
| gaelfx | nomad99: good point :D | 07:20 |
| lotuspsychje | saruji: i would go for ubuntu 64 bit on an ssd, good cpu and many rams, and you are good to go | 07:20 |
| saruji | lotuspsychje: great, should I focus on a CPU with better virtualization instructions? is the intel solution a good one? Intel-virtualization? | 07:22 |
| lotuspsychje | saruji: if you need hardware hints for faster system, join ##hardware aswell | 07:22 |
| saruji | lotuspsychje: awesome there | 07:22 |
| gaelfx | saruji: I could be wrong, but I think most people use Intel for virtualization, AMD tends to lag behind them in functionality in that respect | 07:22 |
| lotuspsychje | saruji: any system or brand, if you run ubuntu on it wise would be fast | 07:23 |
| lotuspsychje | saruji: i run ubuntu 64 bit on ssd myself, i never found any Os faster and easy so far, that does what i need | 07:24 |

I had the blackmagic intensity Pro running in 12.04 but Matterhorn requires Ubuntu 10.10 for the capture client to run. So I installed 10.10. But unfortunately the gstreamer plugin "decklink" for the blackmagic card doesn't seem to be available. Now I tried (in my foolishness) to compile gstreamer plugins from sources but it seems to require glib 31.14 (also not | 07:30 |

| ubottu | Unity is the default UI since Ubuntu 11.04. Unity is a shell for GNOME. see http://unity.ubuntu.com. For a GNOME 2-like experience, see !notunity | 07:40 |
| fidel_ | and yeah you can assume some of the 1,5k users inhere are using the default DE ;) | 07:40 |
| bas | ThinkT510: ouch and there I thought 10.10 is better than 10.04 ;) | 07:40 |
| ThinkT510 | !lts | bas | 07:41 |
| obakfahad | why every time it logout when i click shutdown ? | 07:41 |
| ubottu | bas: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; with the exception of 12.04 (Precise Pangolin), which will be supported for 5 years on the desktop. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04) | 07:41 |
| lotuspsychje | is there anything more lightweight then lubuntu-desktop for ubuntu? | 07:41 |
| cfhowlett | bas: unless you really NEED the latest, greatest shiny stuff, I suggest you adopt an LTS only policy. | 07:41 |

| fidel_ | lotuspsychje: maybe fluxbox? havent checked that for years to be honest | 07:42 |

| canobi | Hey all. A quick one - my displayport is not working in precise, but does on fedora 17. I suppose it's xorg 1.12 that I need, and tried to install it from x swat lts backports repo. The problem is I don't know how - if I try to install xorg-server-lts-backports it tries to uninstall all of the desktop components I have (kde). Any way I can install it without affecting the rest? BTW, not running pure precise, but rather mint KDE. | 08:08 |
| ThinkT510 | !mint | canobi | 08:09 |
| ubottu | canobi: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 08:09 |

| ThinkT510 | !backports | 08:11 |
| ubottu | If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 08:11 |

| ThinkT510 | bas: #vbox would know the answer (i suspect you are right) | 08:13 |
| canobi | Think510: Yes, that's why I'm careful. Thanks for the backports link, now I know the general direction to take my further research - I'll see what mint'ers say about using ubuntu backports. | 08:14 |
| petero | anyone have experience with the thinkpad t510 and the broadband adapter ? To use it i have to boot Windows , turn it on , reboot to ubuntu and then the adapter is visible. After a shutdown it's gone and have to do same procedure again :( | 08:16 |
| smartboyhw | Please join the Ubuntu QA Meeting tomorrow at 1400 UTC at #ubuntu-meeting | 08:17 |

| islandmonkey | Unless you mean a wireless adapter | 08:18 |
| ThinkT510 | petero: i'm guessing you mean a usb dongle thing | 08:18 |
| petero | ThinkT510: Wireless works ok , except when do large file transfers ( reported a bug for that ) | 08:18 |
| timfrost | canobi: mixing ubuntu and mint repositories will cause clashes, because of different dependencies (as you have found). The same applies for mixing any two distributions, so adding a debian repository to either mint or ubuntu can cause problems | 08:18 |

| tom_ilsinszki_ | fidel_: I installed Oracle Java JDK. So when I tried to install tomcat via apt-get it wanted to install openjdk, but I don't wanna use that... | 08:40 |
| PhilW | on the current version, seems to lock up solid once it connects to wifi router | 08:41 |
| fidel_ | PhilW: i guess its the wrong place to ask - give ##hardware a chance as well ;) | 08:41 |
| timfrost | canobi: you have no guaranteed safe solution if a repository for another distribution is configured, because of package versions and dependencies. Far safer to just download the package and install it with dpkg | 08:41 |
| PhilW | ok thanks | 08:41 |
| canobi | tom_ilsinszki: Usually you would install it according to LSB standards, probably into /usr/share/tomcat, but your best bet is to see where the official package puts the files (without actually installing), and replicate that setup. | 08:42 |
| raven | how to exec a command at user-login? any file like rc.local for userland? need to mount sshfs automatically | 08:42 |
| tom_ilsinszki_ | canobi: cool, thx. I'll google around to see where apache ends up after installation. | 08:43 |
| canobi | timfrost: That's what I did with kernel 3.5 from x swat backports, and it worked. So I thought xorg might be more of the same, unfortunately they're quite a bit more dependency-locked with the rest of the mint system. | 08:44 |
| timfrost | raven: ~/.profile is probably the best place. That script is processed by a login shell. I am not sure where in the X login process it is processed | 08:45 |
| raven | timfrost is it executed at login or by opening a shell? | 08:47 |

| cristian_c | I've installed easy-deb with virtualenv | 08:49 |
| raven | timfrost ok but ii wont execute everytime i open xterm or gnome-terminal? | 08:49 |
| timfrost | canobi: that is the issue - if it is a single package, then you are OK. If it is a suite of packages, as with the X server, then you hit problems with dependencies and conflicts | 08:50 |
| cristian_c | I would like it in the same manner of checkinstall, to make deb to install or uninstall | 08:50 |
| cristian_c | *debs | 08:50 |
| cristian_c | for python applications | 08:50 |
| cristian_c | I've found an example-tutorial | 08:51 |
| cristian_c | but I don't know how to adjust the following command: | 08:52 |
| cristian_c | easy-deb -v2.4 -d python-pypi-delegate -D /tmp graph | 08:52 |
| cristian_c | Any ideas? | 08:52 |
| timfrost | raven: no. There is a separate file (~/.bashrc) that sets up the environment for a new terminal session. .profile is supposed to be for a 'login shell' | 08:53 |
| L3top | raven you can write a script and put it in /etc/init.d and run update-rc.d myscript defaults and it will do what you want. You need to read some other headers in there and get a feel for how that header file works in order to make sure prerequisite services are installed. This is the depreciated method, and you should learn to use upstart jobs... however this way is easiest. | 08:54 |
| canobi | tom_ilsinszki: If you want to keep your setup simple though, and plan on running more manually installed java software, I suggest you make a top level directory for all java, and just unpack everything in there. E.g. make a directory /java and let tomcat unpack itself there. Or perhaps assign a whole partition under /mnt/java - it's often much easier to manually manage it because java app servers are not that flexible out of the box and are usually assuming | 08:54 |

| harem | hello #ubuntu! | 09:33 |
| lcabreza1 | hi harem | 09:33 |
| harem | the reason why ubuntu 12 precise pangolin is still so buggy is that it's a new version still or that the developers are not working well enough? | 09:34 |
| shaq_ | Harem they are working on a lot of bugs, and remember that some of the developers do work for free. They don't usually have deadlines | 09:35 |
| harem | because I would have preferred using ubuntu 10.10, which was nearly perfect... | 09:35 |
| harem | ok, shaq_ | 09:35 |
| lcabreza1 | i would say 10.04 instead | 09:36 |
| harem | uh | 09:36 |
| lcabreza1 | i'm using 12.04 on my laptop .it works great ...i've been doing a lot of tweaks from different resources .. | 09:36 |
| lcabreza1 | harem: i've disabled unity and uses the same interface as 10.10 and 10.04 .. | 09:36 |
| shaq_ | lcabreza1, same here. I've got a lot of tweaks, i encountered a bug and posted a fix tho :) | 09:36 |
| harem | lcabreza1 me too! :) | 09:37 |
| shaq_ | Anyone able to help me with this please http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2035695 | 09:37 |
| Scud | hmm my problem seems to be that all output device are also recognized as input devices, any1 have a pointer how to remove those "wrong devices"? | 09:37 |
| shaq_ | Scud, try finding the drivers and installing them. That may help | 09:37 |
| Scud | well i havet change the drivers an the sound is working fine, i just dont want all output audio streams to be combined with the input stream | 09:38 |
| Scud | *havent | 09:38 |
| harem | sorry shaq_, atm I did not do anything with wine | 09:38 |
| harem | by the way, is kubuntu the same as ubuntu only with KDE instead of Gnome? | 09:39 |
| DJones | harem: Yes | 09:39 |
| harem | and what about xubuntu? | 09:40 |
| DJones | !xubuntu | 09:40 |
| ubottu | Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels | 09:40 |
| Scud | XFCE instead of GNOME | 09:40 |
| harem | wow | 09:40 |
| primefalcon | harem, you can install other desktops by say running sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop or even just sudo apt-get install xfce | 09:40 |
| harem | never really saw an XFCE desktop environment :) | 09:40 |
| harem | and nice bot! | 09:40 |
| harem | oh, that's great primefalcon! | 09:41 |
| Scud | xfce is nice imo... used it for years | 09:41 |
| DJones | harem: There's also Lubuntu which uses LXDE as its desktop environment | 09:41 |
| harem | that's exactly what I was thinking to do :) | 09:41 |
| Scud | speacially on older hardware | 09:41 |
| harem | and it's lighter, I heard | 09:41 |
| harem | wow guys | 09:41 |
| primefalcon | harem, you can also have multiple desktops installed no issue, I have around 10 atm, then you just choose which you want at boot | 09:41 |
| harem | you're making grow my curiosity towards XFCE/LXDE/KDE :) | 09:42 |
| harem | primefalcon, that I would never expect!! That's great! | 09:43 |
| harem | so all I need to do is sudo apt-get install xfce lxde kde? | 09:43 |
| primefalcon | I run lxde, kde,xfce, unity, gnome shell, awesome, mate, jwm and couple I cant think of off the top of my head atm | 09:43 |
| harem | hahaah | 09:43 |
| primefalcon | yup | 09:43 |
| harem | that's insane :O | 09:43 |
| harem | (positively meaning :D) | 09:44 |
| harem | what's gnome shell? | 09:44 |
| harem | you mentioned it | 09:44 |
| harem | primefalcon | 09:44 |
| primefalcon | its a new desktop that unity is forked from, gnome3 otherwise known as | 09:45 |
| harem | forked as in fork() ? :) | 09:45 |
| primefalcon | forked as in ubuntu took gnome and remade it in their image and called it unity effectively | 09:46 |
| harem | uhm, ok | 09:46 |

| Blazemore | sudo apt-get install libssl0.9.8 | 09:50 |
| lotuspsychje | how come another user cant mount a hd: fstab line: /media/sdb1 ntfs nls=iso8859-1,users,umask=000,user,owner | 09:50 |
| harem | em_, try what Blazemore suggested | 09:50 |
| harem | type in a shell that string | 09:51 |
| em_ | i have installed libssl0.9.8 | 09:51 |
| szal | anyone have an idea when the 1st "service pack" for 12.04, a.k.a. 12.04.1, will be released? | 09:51 |
| primefalcon | I'd say the same I just did an apt-cache search for libcrypto the only package I could see was libcrypto++9 | 09:51 |
| lotuspsychje | how come another user cant mount a hd: fstab line: /media/sdb1 ntfs nls=iso8859-1,users,umask=000,user,owner ? | 09:51 |
| harem | primefalcon, later on can you tell me what an apt-cache is? | 09:52 |
| em_ | @harem i tried | 09:52 |
| susundberg | apt-file is nicer, it searches also the un-installed packges files included in the package | 09:52 |
| primefalcon | harem, if you run the command apt-cache search <search terms> yo can searc for programs and packages in he repo's via the command line | 09:52 |
| susundberg | afaik apt-cache only looks for the description etc, but no the file-list | 09:52 |
| harem | oohh that's niceee!!! I always used aptitude search for that!! | 09:53 |
| primefalcon | thats usualy what I am search for such as apt-cache search webm converter or whatever | 09:53 |
| szal | em_: when addressing people, skip the @ and use tab completion :) | 09:53 |

| Funkt | Hi there does anyone know if it is possible to produce iphone apps on ubuntu? | 10:05 |
| LjL | Funkt: it's not | 10:05 |
| tarzeau | Funkt: only web apps | 10:05 |
| Funkt | no need mac and mac only yeah | 10:05 |
| Funkt | is the concept the same? | 10:05 |
| lotuspsychje | llutz: this is what pysdm changes by default in /etc/fstab | 10:05 |
| Kartagis | you need xcode, which is Mac-only | 10:06 |
| tarzeau | Funkt: basically you can learn objective-c and gnustep (which is pretty much cocoa) | 10:06 |
| Funkt | Ok and then im away am i? | 10:06 |
| llutz | lotuspsychje: whatever pysdm is, its nonsense | 10:06 |
| tarzeau | Funkt: no, web apps are not in the app store, it's just html5 javascript webpages | 10:06 |
| lotuspsychje | !info pysdm | llutz | 10:06 |
| ubottu | llutz: pysdm (source: pysdm): Graphical Storage Device Manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4.1-0ubuntu3 (precise), package size 28 kB, installed size 292 kB | 10:06 |
| Funkt | I understand how web apps work | 10:06 |
| tarzeau | Kartagis: xcode is pretty much gorm.app (interface builder) | 10:06 |
| Funkt | they are completely different to objective c right | 10:06 |
| tarzeau | Funkt: web apps have nothing to do with objective c, right | 10:07 |
| Funkt | yes right | 10:07 |
| tarzeau | Funkt: but have a look at http://cappuccino.org/ | 10:07 |
| Funkt | Ok | 10:07 |
| lotuspsychje | llutz:ok so you tell me howto automount ntfs partitions at boot | 10:07 |
| Funkt | that give me a better idea yeah | 10:07 |
| llutz | lotuspsychje: having "user,users"in options field makes no sense, read "man mount" whhy and fix it. see !ntfs and !ntfs-3g factoid | 10:08 |
| ___MAX | Hi, is it safe to disable the apparmor to run I2p with mozilla browser | 10:09 |
| dr_willis | !ntfs-3g | 10:09 |
| ubottu | ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 10:09 |
| lotuspsychje | i like pysdm dr_willis, just wanna know what values to change to fstab so any user can automount | 10:10 |
| ___MAX | Because if i didn't disable apparmor it wont run | 10:11 |
| em_ | primefalcon, sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib32/libcrypto.so.4 | 10:11 |
| em_ | ln: failed to create symbolic link `/usr/lib32/libcrypto.so.4': No such file or directory | 10:11 |
| dr_willis | a user is not needed to 'automount' | 10:11 |
| llutz | em_: ls -l /usr/lib32/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 | 10:11 |
| dr_willis | it would mount at boot - no users needed | 10:12 |
| lotuspsychje | dr_willis:still when i log into the other user it says no permission to mount | 10:12 |
| ___MAX | Hi, is it safe to disable the apparmor to run I2p with mozilla browser,Because if i didn't disable apparmor it wont run with mozilla browser | 10:12 |

| em_ | ln: invalid option -- 'l' | 10:12 |
| em_ | Try `ln --help' for more information. | 10:12 |
| llutz | em_: ls -l /usr/lib32/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 | 10:13 |
| ThinkT510 | em_: he said ls | 10:13 |
| dr_willis | lotuspsychje: if its allready mounted.. then you normally dont remount it. | 10:13 |
| em_ | llutz, ls -l /usr/lib32/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 | 10:14 |
| em_ | ls: cannot access /usr/lib32/libcrypto.so.0.9.8: No such file or directory | 10:14 |
| llutz | em_: how would you symlink to a non existing file? | 10:14 |
| dr_willis | the ntfs-config tool can also set ntfs to mount on firts access | 10:14 |
| dr_willis | first | 10:14 |
| lotuspsychje | ok lemme try that | 10:14 |
| llutz | em_: "ln -s whatfile symlinkname" | 10:14 |
| em_ | llutz, i'm very dum on ubuntu sorry | 10:14 |
| em_ | that's why i'm here | 10:15 |
| llutz | em_: ln works always the same way, not ubuntu-related | 10:15 |
| em_ | yes but i'm more a windows person, but the nee for Cisco IOU emulator i'm in ubuntu and i kinde like ubuntu now | 10:16 |
| primefalcon | its like the lib32 folder doesn't exist, you could try creating it but, I doubt that would resolved the issue | 10:16 |
| tcial | Hi, I'm stuck in Low Graphics Mode, with no cursor or anything, making me unable to click the reconfigure option. My GPU is a "Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller", and I have not installed any drivers for it. It used to work, but all of a sudden (when I plug it into my HDMI TV) it doesn't. What could be causing this, and how do I fix it? | 10:16 |
| primefalcon | just try it anyhow cant hurt sudo mkdir /usr/lib32; sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib32/libcrypto.so.4 | 10:17 |

| em_ | llutz, i'm trying to run Cisco IOU on ubuntu 12.04 i386 | 10:28 |
| llutz | em_: the wrapper-script expects libcrypto.so.4 which you don't have. so either get it somewhere or try to create a symlink to /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 and hope it will accept it | 10:28 |
| em_ | ok but how could i link it ? | 10:29 |
| lotuspsychje | dr_willis: ntfs tool worked out fine, seems like it edits fstab better then pysdm | 10:29 |
| dr_willis | that seems odd versioning numbers for lib crypto | 10:29 |
| llutz | ln -s /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.4 | 10:29 |
| primefalcon | that'll need a sudo | 10:29 |
| llutz | em_: sudo needed, sry. then "sudo ldconfig" and try again | 10:30 |
| dr_willis | lotuspsychje: its been flakey in the past. and psydm messes things up in the past also. i edit fstab by hand normally | 10:30 |
| lotuspsychje | dr_willis: how can i fix this bug? https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+question/144040 | 10:30 |
| smartboyhw | Indeed, sudo is everything | 10:30 |
| em_ | llutz, what to try again can you be more specific | 10:30 |
| dr_willis | lotuspsychje: i have exactly 1 system with an ati card. ;) so i dont ati much.. | 10:31 |
| llutz | em_: try again to run your script | 10:31 |

| lotuspsychje | dr_willis: i set bios values to what the site says, but still every morning it corrupts mouse pointer | 10:31 |
| em_ | aha i tried but nothing | 10:31 |
| lotuspsychje | dr_willis:after the reboot, its automaticly fixed for a strange reason | 10:32 |
| em_ | llutz, i tried this i search on google then i came here | 10:32 |
| primefalcon | sudo ln -s /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.4 | 10:32 |
| primefalcon | did you do that.. with the sudo? | 10:32 |
| lotuspsychje | dr_willis: would 'nomodeset' be a good idea to edit in grub? | 10:32 |
| dr_willis | lotuspsychje: try it and see.. | 10:33 |
| lotuspsychje | ok | 10:33 |
| em_ | llutz, thanks now it's working... just if you understand something on this i know it is a emulator problem but if you have any idea about this Process Id for child is 7118, parent is 7116 | 10:34 |
| em_ | Unable to run router: Permission denied | 10:34 |
| em_ | IOU 7118 exit | 10:34 |
| llutz | em_: sry no idea, i don't use/know that software | 10:35 |
| llutz | em_: check what "router" is meant, check permissions would be my hint | 10:36 |
| primefalcon | sounds like you might need to run it as root tough for some reason | 10:36 |
| em_ | llutz, thank you very mutch | 10:36 |
| geirha | em_: strace might reveal exactly what it fails at | 10:37 |
| em_ | i think i have to give +x permittions or something like that on some image | 10:38 |
| em_ | llutz, can i permit an complete folder | 10:39 |
| lotuspsychje | dr_willis: lol there's no nomodeset on my current kernel line in grub | 10:39 |

| jan_ | but i will have lnux | 11:12 |
| subz3r0 | !ask | jan_ | 11:12 |
| ubottu | jan_: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 11:12 |

| compdoc | snoopybbt, all uefi systems Ive seen so far behave like the older systms did. You only need uefi to boot drives larger than 2.3TB. Or to use operating systems to require the security features of uefi. WHich done not apply to Ubuntu right now | 11:13 |
| locodir-user | subz3r0: how can i download unetbootin from a live debian install | 11:13 |
| jan_ | thx ubottu | 11:13 |

| smartboyhw | ubottu is a system | 11:13 |
| ubottu | smartboyhw: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 11:13 |
| subz3r0 | smartboyhw, but he could download + install it with apt-get... worked for me with a live stick... | 11:13 |
| smartboyhw | He IS intelligent!!!! | 11:13 |
| smartboyhw | apt-get everything | 11:13 |
| jan_ | also i don´t have linux and i am new on linux. Is linux mint or linux mint debian better for me? | 11:13 |

| cyrano_ | I'm setting up my system to triple boot. I was looking in to truecrypt password boot encrypting my windows partition and/or just setting up grub with passwords for pre OS/Distro booting.

It would also be one that would have prey installed on it so in case my laptop is st | 11:14 |

| I-K | hi all. i was wondering, are there any programs that could temporarily disable desktop compositing while watching a fullscreen video? manually i can do that via fusion-icon, but could it be possible to make that automatically? | 11:16 |
| subz3r0 | locodir-user, sudo apt-get install unetbootin | 11:16 |
| cyrano_ | I forgot to ask my question... Anyway my question was I will have two partitions setup for different boots of 12.04 the smaller guest partition would be Lubuntu while the other will be a base install of ubuntu without unity and gnome 3 with MATE installed. I was wondering if there is a way to run the main partition and run periodic updates on the Lubuntu partition with out having to boot in to it? | 11:17 |
| subz3r0 | NewOnLinux, you rly do not need a softwarecenter... apt will be enuff | 11:17 |
| ThinkT510 | cyrano_: no | 11:17 |
| cyrano_ | @I-K what program are you using to watch these videos? or are you talking about youtube/flash videos? | 11:18 |
| diverdude | is it possible to overload an operator in the parent class, and have child classes make ude of it? | 11:18 |
| MarKsaitis | is there such a thing to do a system audit? Like to see the difference between all installed packages and files and the rest? | 11:18 |
| cyrano_ | @ThinkT510 thanks | 11:18 |
| locodir-user | subz3r0: mother of god, thank you | 11:19 |
| I-K | cyrano_: any sort of fullscreen videos, with any player. it's the compositing what makes them really laggy. no problems with smaller resolutions like in youtube, vimeo etc... | 11:20 |
| cyrano_ | @I-K you could launch the programs like vlc by creating a script that would disable compositing then run the program and then re-enable it when you close that program | 11:21 |
| I-K | cyrano_: hmmm... interesting. i believe i have tried that once, but no luck. | 11:22 |
| BluesKaj | Howdy all | 11:22 |

| === owner is now known as Guest75115 | ||
| cyrano_ | @glebihan good point it's just habit to be religious about updates, perhaps updates for prey or kernels not really sure why I thought I should update it. Also I thought it would be cool to be able to do that and not have to boot in to that partition! | 11:24 |
| Arki | Goodness, there are a lot of people in here | 11:24 |
| MarKsaitis | is there such a tool to do a system audit? Like to see the difference between all installed packages and files and the rest? | 11:24 |
| Arki | So uh, I've found myself with an ~ubuntu problem~. I just installed ubuntu on a laptop from Windows 7, overwriting W7 in the process. | 11:25 |
| Arki | It all went fine, except that Ubuntu doesn't want to boot. I can get into it if I boot from the USB | 11:25 |
| Arki | But left to its own devices, it won't boot from the hard drive, just a blinking _ | 11:25 |
| glebihan | cyrano_, well it is possible, but it would be much complication for no real goal, just update the system when you boot into it (as long as you're not using it, updating is pointless) | 11:26 |
| Guest75115 | hello im having a problem with not hearing audio witrh mozilla to play you tube videos | 11:26 |
| Guest75115 | can some one advise me how to fix it | 11:26 |
| cfhowlett | Arki: slow down. unless you specifically wrote over the win7 partition, win is still present. | 11:26 |
| Arki | It specifically asked me if I wanted to replace W7 | 11:27 |
| Arki | To which I said yes. | 11:27 |
| cfhowlett | Arki: OK ... so now it won't boot? no error msg's or anything? | 11:27 |
| Arki | Nope, just the blinking '_' on a black screen after the initial startup | 11:27 |
| Arki | Doesn't go anywhere near ubuntu | 11:28 |
| Arki | Just gives me the usual chance to enter the system setup or bios | 11:28 |
| cfhowlett | Arki: but you can access your files if you liveboot the cd/usb, right? | 11:28 |
| Arki | Yeah, it has my username as I set it up and everything | 11:28 |
| Guest75115 | ?????? | 11:28 |
| Arki | I'm talking to you from it right now | 11:28 |
| cfhowlett | Arki: you need to restore grub. | 11:28 |
| cfhowlett | !grub2|arki | 11:29 |

See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 - See !grub1 for releases before Karmic (9.10) | 11:29 |
| ThinkT510 | Arki: do you have multiple harddrives? | 11:29 |
| Arki | Nope, one hdd | 11:29 |
| ThinkT510 | Arki: if so make sure the bios is set to boot the right one | 11:29 |
| ThinkT510 | oh | 11:29 |

| theadmin | How do I get the 32-bit sane libraries on a 64-bit system? (multilib) | 11:32 |
| cyrano_ | @I-K you could try using xgame with lets you run programs in separate xsessions which can be found here http://freecode.com/projects/xgame | 11:32 |
| theadmin | (sane being the scanner thing, not an adjective) | 11:32 |
| cfhowlett | theadmin: are there not 64 bit sane libs? y not use them? | 11:32 |
| theadmin | cfhowlett: Wine | 11:33 |
| theadmin | cfhowlett: Need them for that | 11:33 |
| cfhowlett | theadmin: ah, naturally. by bad. | 11:33 |
| cfhowlett | !info sane | 11:33 |
| ubottu | sane (source: sane-frontends): scanner graphical frontends. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.14-9 (precise), package size 108 kB, installed size 332 kB | 11:33 |
| theadmin | Yeah I have that installed | 11:33 |
| ThinkT510 | theadmin: you may need ai32libs or whatever its called | 11:34 |
| glebihan | theadmin, you can install any package's 32 bits version by adding ":i386" to the name of the package (eg : sudo apt-get install sane:i386) | 11:34 |
| cfhowlett | theadmin: interesting. I've got Ustudio and I DON'T have sane. | 11:34 |
| cfhowlett | glebihan: now THAT'S a precious nugget of info. I was thinking edit the source.list | 11:34 |
| cfhowlett | !cookie|glebihan | 11:35 |
| ubottu | glebihan: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! | 11:35 |
| susundberg | :D | 11:35 |
| theadmin | cfhowlett: Interesting -- says it can't install sane:i386 because it depends on libgmp2.0:i386, but it's "not going to be installed" :/ | 11:35 |
| susundberg | !help commands | 11:35 |
| theadmin | Err, glebihan ^ | 11:35 |
| cfhowlett | theadmin: and that's where you get into --force options. Proceed with caution. With great power ... | 11:35 |
| glebihan | theadmin, try installiing specifically libgmp2.0:i386 and see what error message you get | 11:36 |
| ThinkT510 | cfhowlett: --force is usually a bad idea | 11:36 |
| I-K | cyrano_: interesting... haven't tried that yet! i'll check what it can do, thank you! | 11:36 |
| * glebihan wonders whether he should eat his cookie right now... | 11:36 | |
| cfhowlett | ThinkT510: agreed thus the cautionary note. | 11:36 |
| ThinkT510 | cfhowlett: so instead of suggesting it would it not be more prudent to try other things first? | 11:37 |
| theadmin | glebihan: Seems I need a kernel update. Evil. Oh well, let's do that | 11:38 |
| glebihan | theadmin, what kernel update ? | 11:38 |
| cfhowlett | ThinkT510: feel free to correct me. The option I suggested was the only one I could think of. Now seems that a kernel update may be implicated, which I didn't even think of. | 11:38 |
| theadmin | glebihan: It seems to depend on linux-headers or something along those lines -- I have held packages and it complains about them | 11:39 |
| cfhowlett | theadmin: held as in held-back packages? | 11:39 |
| glebihan | theadmin, oh yes it's possible it needs the headers, be careful not to end up installing a 32bits kernel though | 11:39 |
| theadmin | cfhowlett: Held as in: echo "packagename hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections | 11:39 |

| theadmin | Bah great, sane:i386 and wine are in a sort of conflict (aptitude suggests to remove wine to install sane:i386, and that's what I need the 32-bit sane FOR) | 11:48 |

| idletask | cfhowlett: I have, but cannot understand | 11:49 |
| cfhowlett | IdleOne: System>Settings>Mouse & Touchpad should allow you to configure some behaviors as you require | 11:49 |

| idletask | cfhowlett: in this dialog, I have both "disable when typing" and "enable mouse clicks" checked | 11:49 |
| DemonWitch | Is sda5 equal to hdd(0,5) in grub? | 11:50 |

| Guest75115 | well i guess nobody in here knows anything about audio issues with tthis newer distro | 11:50 |
| cfhowlett | kristenbb: sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get autoremove | 11:50 |
| ThinkT510 | DemonWitch: 0,5 yeah, grub1 was off-by-one, grub2 matches the sda convention | 11:50 |
| kristenbb | cfhowlett: you're sure ? | 11:50 |
| theadmin | DemonWitch: Err, partitions start with 1 *facepalm* my bad | 11:51 |
| cfhowlett | kristenbb: background is: | 11:51 |
| kristenbb | cfhowlett: I'm talking about file system usage, it's not related to repositories | 11:51 |
| glebihan | kristenbb, empty the trash ? | 11:51 |
| kristenbb | glebihan: it was removed with 'rm'. | 11:51 |
| idletask | OK, nevermind, just found it | 11:51 |
| idletask | Gee, how thick can I get | 11:52 |
| glebihan | kristenbb, then something else is using the space | 11:52 |
| Eagleman | Hello, i am planning to do a new install of my ubuntu server, I am also using a vlan ( which is bridged with my Wlan0 interface on openwert ) for pushing a WAN ip address to my server. I am currently having some issue's with multiple network interfaces, like yesterday i wasnt able to connect to my server at all and my server isnt able to reach all the other devices in the network. How can i | 11:52 |
| Eagleman | set this up without running in conflicts? | 11:52 |
| kristenbb | I can't even deleted a file from the trash. | 11:52 |
| cfhowlett | kristenbb: updates/upgrades download .debs and save them ... indefinitely unless you manually delete them as I understand it. | 11:52 |
| kristenbb | glebihan: I doubt it, I've just deleted a few gigabyte, and I haven't done anything that would justify a few gigabytes being filed | 11:52 |
| glebihan | kristenbb, well, rm frees up the space immediately, so either you didn't actually the file or something else is using the space | 11:53 |
| kristenbb | cfhowlett: my issue is not at all related to .deb, I think you have me confounded or you didn't understand my questin. | 11:53 |
| theadmin | kristenbb: Do you have logrotate? /var/log tends to fill up REALLY quick, and without logrotate it doesn't auto-remove logs | 11:53 |
| kristenbb | theadmin: no I don't have it, so far as I know | 11:53 |
| theadmin | kristenbb: Then get that :) | 11:54 |
| DemonWitch | How can i know if my system partitions are on a software RAID? | 11:54 |
| glebihan | theadmin, afaik, it's enabled by default on ubuntu | 11:54 |
| DemonWitch | is there an easy way to check it? | 11:54 |
| kristenbb | theadmin: I just removed a syslog file which was a few gigabytes, and df still shows that all 100% is being used. | 11:55 |
| theadmin | DemonWitch: Do you haz /dev/md* ? If so, AFAIK, you're on a raid | 11:55 |
| theadmin | kristenbb: Hm... weird | 11:55 |
| stealthii | Hi there. I come from a redhat background. I was wondering if there was something similar to the tool 'repoview' for debian/ubuntu repositories? | 11:55 |
| theadmin | stealthii: Tell us what it does? | 11:55 |
| stealthii | basically html generated pages of a description of all packages available in the repo | 11:55 |
| cfhowlett | stealthii: what does repoview do | 11:55 |
| kristenbb | theadmin: if I try to save something with gedit, it says 'could not save the file, there is not enough disk space'. | 11:55 |
| theadmin | kristenbb: Well that's just weird. Sorry, no idea anymore | 11:56 |
| ThinkT510 | kristenbb: do you have a seperate /home partition? | 11:56 |
| kristenbb | ThinkT510: no | 11:56 |
| stealthii | an example of a repoview page: http://mirrors.coreix.net/fedora-epel/6/i386/repoview/letter_r.group.html | 11:56 |
| kristenbb | is there no command to update the free space ? | 11:57 |
| kristenbb | like updatedb or something? | 11:57 |
| glebihan | kristenbb, no | 11:57 |
| glebihan | kristenbb, the space is freed immediately | 11:58 |
| kristenbb | cd /home | 11:58 |
| kristenbb | sorry | 11:58 |
| stealthii | theadmin, cfhowlett: I am more interested in the package-specific pages, which can show the changes between release versions (normally generated from the changelog in the spec) | 11:58 |
| theadmin | stealthii: Still no idea, sorry -- I don't know anything APT and HTML related | 11:59 |
| ThinkT510 | stealthii: the update manager usually shows a list of changes | 11:59 |
| cfhowlett | stealthii: Can't think of an equivalent functionality but I'd be surprised if there WASN'T such a beast | 11:59 |

| Arki | It decided that it didn't like making a cube out of 4 horizontal facings and two vertical facings | 12:03 |
| ThinkT510 | Arki: if you were using unity i wouldn't be surprised, unity isn't designed to work with the cube | 12:04 |

| theadmin | So has the name of the GNOME-Shell based Ubuntu version been decided yet? Or is that just a fake rumor? | 12:11 |
| === Setarcos is now known as DemonWitch | ||
| ThinkT510 | theadmin: what? | 12:11 |
| theadmin | ThinkT510: I heard that since 12.10 there's going to be an Ubuntu version based on Gnome Shell | 12:12 |
| ThinkT510 | theadmin: oh | 12:12 |
| DemonWitch | Hey | 12:12 |
| ThinkT510 | straw | 12:12 |
| DemonWitch | what was the manual page about chrooting again? | 12:12 |
| ThinkT510 | !chroot | 12:12 |
| ubottu | A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 12:12 |
| cfhowlett | theadmin: I don't recall hearing anything from Canonical on that, but I would not be surprised to see a community fork | 12:12 |
| theadmin | cfhowlett: A community fork for that ("Gnome Shell Remix") exists already, I heard there was an official one planned | 12:13 |
| DemonWitch | ThinkT510, it was another page | 12:14 |
| DemonWitch | subsection of grub2 | 12:14 |
| shomon | how do you set up sip? | 12:14 |
| DemonWitch | !grub2 | 12:14 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 - See !grub1 for releases before Karmic (9.10) | 12:14 |
| cfhowlett | theadmin: I believes it when I seez it. | 12:14 |
| theadmin | shomon: Are you looking for a SIP client? If so, try Ekiga | 12:14 |
| shomon | no, I want to find out how it works, theadmin : I got jitsi but I don't know how to get an actual sip account | 12:15 |
| shomon | also I could use ekiga from what I've read... | 12:15 |
| Dmitry` | OMG! Ubuntu!!! | 12:15 |
| Arki | ubuntu~ | 12:15 |
| theadmin | shomon: There are many SIP servers out there, search for one that works for you | 12:16 |
| Dmitry` | ah, ubuntu! It was my 1st Linux distro. 8.04 Hardy Heron :) | 12:16 |
| shomon | they are commercial? | 12:16 |

| theadmin | ozpy: 11.10 is now out of Alpha. If you mean 12.10, yes, it does | 12:23 |
| sumit | but when I restarted my system | 12:23 |
| sumit | it went into power saver mode | 12:23 |

| soderluk | hi there. I have NFS set up on a Fedora 16 server, and it mounts nicely on my ubuntu box. I can even edit files via SSH on it, but when I try to access some folders on my windows machine (samba) it gives me access denied. | 12:26 |
| soderluk | I chowned the share on the fedora server to www-data:users, but it shows up as nobody:nogroup on ubuntu | 12:27 |
| janisozaur | I shrunk a btrfs volume using btrfs-tools, but no space is visible in palimpsest or fdisk. how do i reclaim the space? | 12:27 |
| soderluk | I can't seem to find any help anywhere, so this is like my last resort. Any help appreciated. | 12:27 |
| rajumoh | soderluk: smbfs needs to be used to share with windows not nfs | 12:28 |
| soderluk | rajumoh: I have the share mounted on my ubuntu, and the www folder mounted on windows via samba. The nfs share is then symlinked to the www folder | 12:28 |
| soderluk | the thing is, that I added the samba user to the group that has read and write access to the NFS share. | 12:29 |
| soderluk | the UIDs and GIDs are the same on both the ubuntu box and the fedora server | 12:29 |
| Auzy | rajumoh, I think Windows services for Unix supports NFS, but samba is a far better solution | 12:29 |
| gear4 | is there any way for me to do some sort of linking between my servers ? | 12:32 |
| rajumoh | Auzy, soderluk : luk that config looks a bit twisted to me will have to do some research myself to help you :-( . | 12:32 |
| soderluk | I only want to be able to add files to the NFS share. I'm developing on my windows machine, and the ubuntu is just a virtual machine where my environment is set up... | 12:32 |
| rajumoh | soderluk: i get you pain.. will come back if i find something | 12:34 |
| soderluk | rajumoh: I've been trying the whole day to find out a fix for this, but to no avail... thanks mate :) | 12:34 |

| Dmitry` | shaq_, with what? Applying Changes Stuck? | 12:41 |
| shaq_ | Dmitry`, yes | 12:41 |
| shaq_ | Dmitry`, It says it for "Searching" i canceled it and well its stuck again | 12:41 |
| shaq_ | Dmitry`, restarting won't help | 12:41 |
| rajumoh | soderluk: also in /etc/samba/smb.conf add something like http://paste.ubuntu.com/1121349/ | 12:42 |

| gear4 | BluesKaj, you tjhre ? | 12:42 |
| gear4 | there * | 12:42 |

| gear4 | is there any way for me to do some sort of remote linking between my servers ? | 12:43 |
| diverdude | how do i rip a dvd from the terminal | 12:43 |
| shaq_ | Dmitry`, I turned on my computer went to facebook, than went to download openJDK to find "Searching" is applying changes. Have no idea what it is, so than i cancelled it. And its not doing anything not ever 1% highlighted :\ | 12:44 |
| shaq_ | Dmitry`, been like this for 30 minutes now. I tried restarting, i tried killing natulis-drop and same issue | 12:44 |
| BluesKaj | gear4: i'm not experienced with remote servers , all I can find is to use ssh with tight vnc | 12:44 |
| soderluk | rajumoh: hmm, I don't have any problems accessing the www-folder via samba on windows, only the NFS share... | 12:44 |
| Dmitry` | shaq_, so it happens when you search a package? | 12:45 |
| diverdude | blue_bomber: you mean use tight vnc with ssh right? | 12:45 |
| gear4 | BluesKaj, I need a way to download remotely, and view dirs etc. | 12:45 |
| shaq_ | Dmitry`, No, searching is in installing, If i try to install something i have to wait for searching to finish, and searching isn't doing anything | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | diverdude: yes tight vnc does the tunnelling or whatever it's called | 12:46 |
| Dmitry` | shaq_, looks like a bug in Software Center. Can't you use apt-get instead? | 12:46 |
| soderluk | rajumoh: I have the samba user already configured and the samba share likewise... | 12:46 |
| Dmitry` | shaq_, and you'd better report this bug | 12:46 |
| shaq_ | Dmitry`, apt-get won't work, it says that the process is being used by another application | 12:46 |

| RomeoAva | why some Ubuntu 12:04 have Unity 2D and some 3D? | 13:07 |
| islandmonkey | GTCharizard: 11.10 is supported here - however are you aware of a new release, 12.04? | 13:08 |
| morganwk | did you get my question? | 13:08 |
| ThinkT510 | yacc: no sorry, my biggest is 750gb | 13:08 |
| RomeoAva | The posts about first thinks to do after instal 12:04 shows us #D unity | 13:08 |
| RomeoAva | #3D | 13:08 |
| yacc | Sigh, well, let's see if 10.04LTS likes it better when the thing is connected directly via SATA. | 13:08 |
| GTCharizard | island: Yeah, but I'm running it from my flash drive, installed from a CD I made many months ago | 13:08 |
| === ninjak__ is now known as ninjak | ||
| ThinkT510 | morganwk: you can repeat it occasionally, people won't answer if they don't know | 13:09 |
| gear4 | yacc, afaik, because some PC's can't handle 3D | 13:09 |
| RomeoAva | They sus pend in last time? | 13:09 |
| gear4 | as far as I know * | 13:09 |
| RomeoAva | the 3D | 13:09 |
| islandmonkey | RomeoAva: Because not all graphics cards can support Unity 3D. | 13:09 |
| GTCharizard | I didn't feel like updating it. The version shouldn't make too much a diffrence, should it? | 13:09 |
| gear4 | islandmonkey, I answered that with yacc ^_^ | 13:09 |
| islandmonkey | Ohh | 13:09 |
| gear4 | I had same problem, but with bad Dell | 13:10 |
| RomeoAva | who determin that, the comp? | 13:10 |
| morganwk | so I am trying to install ubuntu on my C drive (currently running vista on D), so I got the iso and put it on a dvd, I set bios to load the dvd drive first, and then when I turned it on, it loaded into windows anyway, after some weird bios gibberish text (or gibberish to me at least, something about media fail and check cable) | 13:10 |
| GTCharizard | I really need to get Gajim showing in my dashboard again, everytime I switch programs, I lose the chat and its driving me nuts | 13:10 |
| RomeoAva | or the last ud date is for 2D | 13:10 |
| Muttley_ | hi. do you know if there's a default position for JAVA_HOME environment variable in linux? | 13:10 |
| BluesKaj | gear4: you obviously have a static aIP or are using a dynamic IP tracker , correct ? | 13:10 |
| gear4 | RomeoAva, the software does | 13:10 |
| pengw | I am using radiotray on ubuntu 12.04 | 13:10 |
| gear4 | BluesKaj, static IP | 13:10 |
| pengw | where i can get more channels？ | 13:10 |
| islandmonkey | GTCharizard: Yes there is. Every version has many more new features | 13:10 |
| fusk | Someone who can help me make uswsusp:i386 default ? And does it make a difference that i use xubuntu ? | 13:11 |
| islandmonkey | Perhaps it might even work if you upgrade. | 13:11 |
| RomeoAva | what to do then? I can change from login panel? | 13:11 |
| GTCharizard | islandmonkey: So you're basically saying that updating it would make Gajim start wor0-ninja | 13:11 |
| gear4 | RomeoAva, no | 13:11 |
| islandmonkey | !repeat | fusk | 13:11 |
| ubottu | fusk: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 13:11 |
| gear4 | it will keep changing to 2D | 13:11 |
| ice_flame | DO you have this case.. I got Ubuntu 12.04 64 and ati hd 5770 . I install drivers from oficial site of amd. After restart my adjustment to video properties a lost. | 13:11 |
| GTCharizard | I'll try updating iand see if that fixes it. I'm just bugged that Gajim worked before and now its messing up | 13:12 |
| RomeoAva | I use a 64 12:04 cud be that the problem? | 13:12 |
| BluesKaj | gear4: then ssh with vnc should work , but the only way I can think is to connect to both servers simultaneously to link them | 13:12 |
| gear4 | BluesKaj, won't work | 13:13 |
| l3d | is there a way to move the launcher on the right say to the bottom ? | 13:13 |
| gear4 | I need a constant link for remote download and upload | 13:13 |
| gear4 | and directory listing | 13:13 |
| BluesKaj | gear4: are you sure ? | 13:13 |
| RomeoAva | What about Compiz? Can i tray ? | 13:13 |
| ThinkT510 | l3d: you mean left, and no | 13:13 |
| gear4 | BluesKaj, yes | 13:13 |
| l3d | oh yah my other right lol and crap | 13:13 |
| obelus | Anyone know of a way to make it so that new files made in a certain directory (/srv/samba/software) are automatically made with 0775? | 13:14 |
| yacc | obelus; help umask | 13:15 |
| RomeoAva | please, explain in a few words whay some guys hase 3D and I have 2D. I instal it 2 days ago? Thank you very much! | 13:15 |
| fusk | islandmonkey... you are aware that, that was 7 min and 150 lines ago ? | 13:15 |
| GTCharizard | RomeoAva: Some people have 3D because the computer can handle it | 13:15 |
| RomeoAva | then the computer knows | 13:15 |
| ThinkT510 | RomeoAva: graphics drivers | 13:15 |
| GTCharizard | RomeoAva: Yes | 13:15 |
| gear4 | RomeoAva, yip | 13:16 |
| GTCharizard | Its like me trying to run games on my laptop and on my desktop. My desktop is old and thus most games dont run | 13:16 |
| l3d | ok after the compiz settings manager installed I would like to have the enhanced zoom feature to work like it used to with the super button and mouse wheel in but i cat seem to get it to work is there a way to get this done | 13:16 |
| RomeoAva | but I buy a NVIDIA GeForce 540M | 13:16 |
| GTCharizard | RomeoAva: Graphics card isnt evertyhting | 13:16 |
| gear4 | RomeoAva, then your hardware is too old | 13:16 |
| gear4 | or too low | 13:16 |
| RomeoAva | and I was thinking i will have all about cubs and so on | 13:16 |
| GTCharizard | The whole computer has to be able to handle it | 13:16 |
| obelus | yacc thanks, I understand how umask works now, but that didn't help tell me how to set it. I want it set for the deluge user account (account used by a daemon) so that when it makes files, they're written as 0775. | 13:16 |
| GTCharizard | Not just the grasphics card | 13:16 |
| gear4 | CPU speed, ram, all dependant | 13:17 |
| GTCharizard | ...eek. I got myself into technical talk, when I usually try to avoid it, I generally get myself lost @~@ | 13:17 |
| RomeoAva | Intel Core i5-480M and 4 GB DDR3 Memory and NVIDIA GeForce 540M | 13:18 |
| parabyt | where is the ubuntu general chat channel | 13:18 |
| gvo | obelus: umask 002 might work | 13:18 |
| obelus | gvo: I get that, my problem is I don't know how to set the umask for the deluge user. | 13:18 |
| ThinkT510 | RomeoAva: that will easily support 3d | 13:18 |
| parabyt | i require some opengl es | 13:18 |
| RomeoAva | yes | 13:18 |
| gear4 | RomeoAva, should work | 13:19 |
| RomeoAva | that is what I was thinking | 13:19 |

| parabyt | version 2 of es | 13:19 |

| parabyt | compdoc, ok | 13:19 |
| gvo | obelus: usually goes in .bashrc for the user | 13:19 |
| BluesKaj | gear4: can you tell me why not vnc inside ssh won't work ? justy for future reference | 13:20 |
| obelus | thanks, I'll try putting it in .bashrc in deluge's home folder. | 13:20 |
| RomeoAva | comand not finde | 13:20 |
| RomeoAva | pastbin | 13:20 |
| RomeoAva | pastebin | 13:20 |
| ThinkT510 | RomeoAva: no, type in a terminal "lsmod" and pastebin the output | 13:21 |
| gvo | obelus: That assumes deluge runs bash in the performance of his duties. :) | 13:21 |
| RomeoAva | ok | 13:21 |
| gear4 | BluesKaj, how will I get my files to list in a directory such as /home/servers | 13:21 |
| compdoc | pastebin.org | 13:21 |
| obelus | Oh. Wow, my brain's not working. | 13:21 |
| obelus | deluge isn't a user, just a user account. | 13:21 |
| obelus | A daemon runs in that account | 13:21 |
| obelus | I doubt it'd use bash to place its files. | 13:21 |
| gvo | obelus: That's why I mentioned it. | 13:22 |
| geirha | obelus: Even if it did, it wouldn't source .bashrc | 13:22 |

| BadDesign | How do I uninstall OpenJDK 6 JRE from Ubuntu 12.04? Whenever I try to uninstall OpenJDK JRE 6 it does so but at the same time as a dependency it tries to install OpenJDK 7 JRE and it does the same thing when I try to uninstall OpenJDK 7. How can I remove ALL OpenJDK from my system? | 14:01 |
| alankila | BadDesign: you have something that wants java vm, so when you remove one implementation, apt tries to be smart and picks another to install for you | 14:02 |

| maurizi0 | L3top, here is maybe a misunderstanding. I actually listen music, 5.1 channel with my receiver, with my PC connected to it, using PulseAudio 5.1 selected. Every speaker sounds, plays. What I need is selecting PulseAudio to send a clean digital signal to my receiver. | 14:40 |

| L3top | maurizi0: you said "but my receiver says It is getting PCM audio" So I am just trying to be clear. I understand the problem now. I want to try some things, to see if it can be sent direct from the system through the HDMI and if your receiver continues to think it is processed. So please figure out which output is being used (my guess would be 3). | 14:46 |

If I am playing a .mkv or .mp4 video file, then the receiver gets the clean digital audio, if it is 5.1, or 4.1 or whatever, Receiver will makeup it as I will want it. | 14:49 |

| maurizi0 | L3top, As far as I know, PCM is not a digital source. That is why I am here. | 14:51 |
| L3top | RomeoAva: your hardware is completely unsupported in linux by nVidia unfortunately. Your best bet is using a third party software for this purpose called bumblebee | 14:51 |
| theadmin | rubatdub: Wait a sec, that looks wrong. Try replacing this with: //192.168.1.95/NOVIRIS/40PRODUCTION | 14:51 |

| jiltdil | mneptok, actaully bluetooth working but not wireless sould i have to use modeprob,any idea? | 15:04 |
| maurizi0 | L3top, In Totem Media Player there is an option called "AC3 Passthrough" I really like how that word sounds :D Because It makes me feel I can just send the digital audio clean to my audio system. But there is not such option in PulseAudio. | 15:04 |
| rubatdub | theadmin, i have find what was wrong for spaces i have to put \040 and not \40 stupid thing :) | 15:05 |
| theadmin | rubatdub: Ah... So that \40 was a space, not a path separator huh | 15:06 |
| theadmin | rubatdub: That's what confused me | 15:06 |
| Eagleman | Is it safe to put this in a script and execute it on startup? screen -d -m -S ts3bot java -jar JTS3ServerMod.jar | 15:06 |
| rubatdub | theadmin, yes thats confusing | 15:07 |
| rubatdub | :) | 15:07 |
| jiltdil | In Additional harware it is showing my broadcam version of wireless but not opening wireless | 15:07 |
| dumbguy_ | @ubottu its very elaborate procedure, will read it and try, thanks | 15:07 |
| maurizi0 | L3top, What happen if I choose PulseAudio in Stereo? When I play a 5.1 movie file PulseAudio will misc the channels in a way that my receiver could not undo? | 15:07 |
| protist | does anyone here not use a GUI at all? | 15:07 |
| L3top | You will have to test maurizi0. | 15:07 |
| Jon-- | Having issues compiling some src for Ubuntu, Makefile has make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build/ SUBDIRS=$(PWD) modules but there is no build directory in /lib/KERNEL dir.

| maurizi0 | L3top, please help me to test. | 15:08 |
| theadmin | rubatdub: Well, my bad. | 15:08 |
| theadmin | Jon--: I'd believe it's "linux-headers-generic" but that should come preinstalled. | 15:08 |
| maurizi0 | L3top, the receiver only plays stereo with this command: speaker-test -c 2 -t sine -l 1 -D hw:0,9 | 15:10 |

| pingufan | Hello, can somebody please tell me how I can install ssh-server on Hardy (8.04) ? I am not familiar with Ubuntu | 15:12 |
| L3top | maurizi0: tell me if this produces sound. speaker-test -Dplug:surround51 -c6 sine -l 1 -D hw:0,9 | 15:12 |
| subz3r0 | sudo apt-get install ssh-server? | 15:12 |
| theadmin | pingufan: sudo apt-get install openssh ; sudo /etc/init.d/sshd start | 15:12 |
| protist | yeah try that | 15:12 |
| OerHeks | pingufan, 8.04 is EOL, choose a newer supported ubuntu | 15:12 |
| theadmin | Oh... That too. | 15:13 |
| dr--willis | its openssh-server | 15:13 |
| Jon-- | pingufan, you're using a very old version of Ubuntu I suggest you move to something newer. sudo apt-get install openssh && sudo /etc/init.d/sshd start | 15:13 |
| subz3r0 | dr--willis, thx :) | 15:13 |
| dr--willis | i think | 15:13 |
| pingufan | Newer version doesn't run on my VIA C7 CPU | 15:13 |
| Jon-- | pingufan, you're using a very old version of Ubuntu I suggest you move to something newer. sudo apt-get install openssh-server && sudo /etc/init.d/sshd start | 15:13 |
| subz3r0 | letd ask apt-cache | 15:13 |
| protist | why does old version of ubuntu matter? | 15:13 |
| protist | aside from frills | 15:13 |
| dr--willis | !eol | 15:13 |
| ubottu | End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 15:13 |
| protist | all asthetic mostly, right? | 15:13 |
| stealthii | it doesn't. especially if it's still supported. | 15:13 |
| hoijui | my skype dumps a core | 15:13 |
| Jon-- | protist, you won't get security patches | 15:14 |
| theadmin | protist: The repos for older versions get taken down | 15:14 |
| Jon-- | or any upgrades, for that matter | 15:14 |
| hoijui | ubuntu 12.04 32bit | 15:14 |
| subz3r0 | yup. sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 15:14 |
| hoijui | skype 4.0.0.7 adn 4.0.0.8 | 15:14 |
| maurizi0 | L3top, Straight in 5.1, exactly as it has to be. fronts, rears, left, right, center, subwoofer. | 15:14 |

| stealthii | Jon--: 8.04 is still supported until April 2013. | 15:14 |
| protist | hmmm....i am skeptical how important security updates on linux are though lol | 15:14 |
| theadmin | protist: Very. Especially if you're on a server. | 15:15 |
| stealthii | protist: very. | 15:15 |
| hoijui | also tried static skype, from their website, though it.. does not seem to be statically linked when i chekc with ldd | 15:15 |
| Jon-- | protist, you'd better be behind a proxy right now son, you've made me curious :P | 15:15 |
| dumbguy_ | .quit | 15:15 |
| protist | lol jon im running 12.04 | 15:15 |
| subz3r0 | stealthii, ONLY the server version.. | 15:15 |
| L3top | maurizi0: Does your reciever think that it is a PCM signal? you can change the -l 1 to 2 or 3 (this is the number of times it will loop) if you need more time to check. | 15:15 |
| subz3r0 | stealthii, Desktop: 12. Mai 2011 | 15:15 |
| BluesKaj | pingufan: you can run 12.04 , just ude a lighter desktop | 15:15 |
| BluesKaj | use | 15:15 |
| dr--willis | !lubuntu | 15:16 |
| ubottu | lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. | 15:16 |
| maurizi0 | L3top, I will test that now. | 15:16 |
| Jon-- | pingufan, you can install a better DE in one command if you hate unity | 15:16 |
| hoijui | skype dumps a core since i updated lots of ubuntu deps (about hte updates of the last 3 weeks) | 15:16 |
| pingufan | Jon--: ? | 15:17 |
| hoijui | i guess.. as it is closed source.. there is no way to make use of the core, right? | 15:17 |
| Jon-- | pingufan, that may have been a mistag | 15:17 |
| === calcmandan is now known as thgilsrooc | ||
| BluesKaj | Jon--: he's already on 8.04 | 15:17 |
| L3top | pingufan: 10.04 is still in support, and I run it on a c7... kubuntu... I would be very surprised if you COULDN'T run 1204 on it... some version that is... like lubuntu or xubuntu at the minimal side. | 15:17 |

| Jon-- | Having issues compiling some src for Ubuntu, Makefile has make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build/ SUBDIRS=$(PWD) modules but there is no build directory in /lib/KERNEL dir. I did an apt-get install build-essential. Am I missing a package, does Ubuntu not have this directory? Kubuntu 12.04. [TL;DR: missing kernel build dir in Ubuntu what packages do I need to install?] come on guys... Been asking a while now | 15:18 |
| pingufan | So my Ubuntu is a little bit extraordinary. | 15:18 |
| maurizi0 | L3top, Ok! Exactly as I thought! When I choose Stereo in PulseAudio the command you gave me still plays 5.1 So My receiver is just getting Clean Digital Audio when Pulse is in stereo. Very weird but It is cool. And in pulse stereo my receiver does not says It is a PCM signal. | 15:19 |
| RomeoAva | l3top I finde this bumblebee, i install it and i will reboot to see what will happen | 15:19 |
| nuno_ | hi, i need some help here please. I did a fresh install of ubuntu, keeping /home partition, but some of my folders and files disappeared | 15:19 |
| petan | Jon-- there is no /lib/KERNEL unless KERNEL is something else | 15:19 |
| killer_ | why does every 8-10 minutes or even less a window appears saying ubuntu encountered some internal problems | 15:20 |
| RomeoAva | L3top> I finde this bumblebee, i install it and i will reboot to see what will happen | 15:20 |
| L3top | maurizi0: we are pumping signal direct from alsa, bypassing pulse alltogether. | 15:20 |
| maurizi0 | L3top, I set my receiver to "Pure Direct", so it is not handling the signal, not manipulating it, It is a clean audio reproduction and It is 5.1 from your command line in test. | 15:20 |
| petan | Jon-- tbh I never saw a distro which would have such a folder | 15:20 |
| maurizi0 | L3top, that last line you write are bad news for me :D | 15:21 |
| OerHeks | killer_, because it finds an internal problem ? click yes to send. | 15:21 |
| L3top | maurizi0: I do not expect any change you make in pulse to have any affect whatsoever on the result. | 15:21 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: assume you are using the spdif output to your receiver? | 15:21 |
| L3top | BluesKaj: HDMI | 15:21 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, L3top , No it is from Nvidia HDMI output straight to my Receiver HDMI input. | 15:22 |
| L3top | Be back in a minute maurizi0... baby. | 15:23 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: do you have pavucontrol installed ? | 15:23 |
| Jon-- | petan, any resources I can find online to compile a kern module on Ubuntu mention that directory in the Makefile but I don't have one | 15:23 |
| nuno_ | please, anyone knows how to solve? | 15:23 |
| blackgatonegro | Now that Thunderbird will be discontinued (After 2013), what you guys will use to replace it? | 15:23 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, L3top : Nvidia sends Video and Audio through HDMI to the receiver. The receiver keeps the Audio and passthrough the Video with HDMI to my 1080p TV. | 15:23 |
| petan | Jon-- I think it's variable $KERNEL or something | 15:23 |
| petan | I doubt it's really hardcoded name | 15:24 |
| protist | i thought $KERNEL was just like a static variable thing? | 15:24 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: pavucontrol will give you the DTS option as well as DD | 15:24 |
| petan | there should be folder /lib/<kernel> where <kernel> is the linux you are making | 15:24 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, L3top : pavucontrol? Let me check. It is a clean Ubuntu 12.04 precise installation. And I do not want to install things to fix my problem. | 15:25 |
| Fyodorovna | blackgatonegro, two cups and a lot of string | 15:25 |
| Jon-- | petan, that's fine, there is no subdir build, that's what I'm missing | 15:25 |
| petan | when you do sudo make install in your build directory it should create this | 15:25 |
| petan | first: configure kernel | 15:25 |
| petan | second: make | 15:25 |
| petan | third sudo make install | 15:25 |
| alesan | hi | 15:25 |
| alesan | how can I "blacklist" ubufox package? | 15:26 |
| Jon-- | petan, env var or not uname -r works fine for that, that's not the issue. It's missing /lib/modules/kernelver/BUILD (capitals for emphasis) | 15:26 |
| alesan | I do not want that thing because it presents pasting a URL with the middle button inside firefox | 15:26 |
| petan | Jon-- that's what make install will create | 15:26 |
| LjL | blackgatonegro: i don't believe it's "discontinued", just it will be community-eveloped, is my understanding | 15:26 |
| petan | Jon-- you probably never ran sudo make install for that kernel version | 15:26 |
| maurizi0 | And BluesKaj , L3top : No, pavucontrol is not installed in my system. | 15:26 |
| dr--willis | !info ubufox | 15:26 |
| ubottu | ubufox (source: ubufox): transitional dummy package. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0.3-0ubuntu1 (precise), package size 1 kB, installed size 35 kB | 15:26 |
| L3top | maurizi0: it is going to be impossible to fix your situation without installing something, removing something or editing the configuration files as sudo. | 15:26 |
| petan | Jon-- did you compile the kernel yourself or used .deb | 15:27 |
| spanther | yay irssi works nicely! | 15:27 |
| blackgatonegro | maurizi0, tried with vlc and Medibuntu? | 15:27 |
| RomeoAva | L3top> you right, all our problems was solved with the Nvidia driver. When you sad "blumblebee" I was thinking is another American slang, then I was thinking you are making joking. But, my insistence bring the solution for many oters in the future. Thanks man! | 15:27 |
| alesan | dr--willis, I disinstall it and then next time when there are updates it instals again | 15:27 |
| Jon-- | petan, I did not compile the kernel myself. | 15:27 |
| theadmin | alesan: To disable pasting with middle mouse button, go to about:config and uncheck the respective option, it has nothing to do with ubufox | 15:27 |
| maurizi0 | L3top, ;( | 15:27 |
| L3top | !yay | RomeoAva | 15:27 |
| ubottu | RomeoAva: Glad you made it! :-) | 15:27 |
| petan | Jon-- in that case you need -dev package for this version | 15:27 |
| spanther | a DD with /dev/urandom takes ages for 2tb hdd :( | 15:27 |
| Jon-- | Do you think the Makefile is the issue then? The one I am using is for generic Linux not specified for Ubuntu | 15:27 |
| petan | install kernel source package or whatever it's called | 15:27 |
| RomeoAva | thanks guy! | 15:27 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: I don't use hdmi to my receiver , but use dvi>hdmi to the TV , the pavucontrol passes the spdif signal to my DAC on my receiver ...my receiver is abit older , has no hdmi connectors | 15:27 |
| caixa | my weather applet in the sys tray isnt working, i put in the location and it still shows the orange icon | 15:27 |
| RomeoAva | you are the best | 15:27 |
| L3top | maurizi0: I have an angry baby here... I am going to be a bit spotty for the time being. | 15:28 |
| alesan | theadmin, wrong, and by the way that is the opposite of what I want | 15:28 |
| Jon-- | petan, I'm compiling a kernel module and driver for a NIC, they include src and Makefile, not a deb package..... | 15:28 |
| maurizi0 | blackgatonegro, tried what? I use VLC to play my movies. But to play music I use Banshee. | 15:28 |
| dr--willis | spanther: and is most likely a waste of time | 15:28 |
| Fyodorovna | caixa, have you tried google or yahoo? for the info | 15:28 |
| Jon-- | petan, I wouldn't be compiling from src if I did not have to | 15:28 |
| RomeoAva | you know what, my 3D looks so great, is different | 15:28 |
| petan | Jon-- what are you compiling then | 15:28 |
| Jon-- | petan, I just told you. | 15:28 |
| petan | kernel or some modules for it? | 15:28 |
| Jon-- | modules | 15:28 |
| RomeoAva | then go to cubs, flames, flags, and so on... | 15:28 |
| spanther | dr--willis i had case sensitive files on it i really never want to have restored after selling my comp. i need high security delete :) | 15:29 |
| petan | for that you need source code of current kernel version | 15:29 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: try pavucontrol , sudo apt-get install pavucontrol | 15:29 |
| RomeoAva | compiz ... | 15:29 |
| maurizi0 | L3top, how old is your baby? I have mine 3 years old :D Not a baby anymore :D | 15:29 |
| blackgatonegro | maurizi0, to get the codecs you need, basically in linux vlc plus Medibuntu can play most things. If you need it on your TV, tried an analogic hole? | 15:29 |
| dr--willis | spanther: then use a secure deletiin tool | 15:29 |
| Steevca | Ubuntu is showing Graphic : Unknown. | 15:30 |
| LjL | dr--willis: a secure deleting tool will likely be even slower though, won't it | 15:30 |
| dr--willis | LjL: i imagine the whole task is pointless.. ;) from what ive read. | 15:30 |
| spanther | dr--willis sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sda this is secure isnt it? | 15:30 |

| LjL | dr--willis: depends on what you're protecting from. writing random data to the drive gets you from having your data trivially restored using... well, any software, to needing lab equipment | 15:31 |

| Jon-- | linux-source* | 15:32 |
| LjL | sporous: well, if you're *very* paranoid, then keep in mind that writing random data won't necessarily stop a very skilled counterpart from getting at some of your data anyway. but it needs lab equipment as i said. | 15:32 |

| Fyodorovna | shadow98, app removals leave the original file if the app is not purged, not sure that is the answer to fix your problem though. | 15:33 |

| Jon-- | petan, hold on I linked you to wrong Makefile, look at this one http://pastie.org/private/foeipcsyatq81qcahqpsa | 15:33 |
| blackgatonegro | maurizi0, well, if you have pulse audio it will most likely affect the audio, do not want it? remove pulseaudio, or try to change the settings of the program you are using. | 15:34 |
| LjL | dr--willis: if you do a "normal delete and formatting", then it will be *asbolutely trivial* to get at the data. | 15:34 |

| Jon-- | petan, yes, I told you before its build dir that's missing | 15:36 |

| spanther | MonkeyDust I want to securely erase very case sensitive secret data before selling my comp :) | 15:36 |
| petan | ok, I only know that this directory is made when you are compiling the kernel, I have no idea why it's not in ubuntu | 15:36 |
| blackgatonegro | maurizi0, as I said, don't like pulse audio? unInstall it, there are other programs you could use. | 15:36 |

| maurizi0 | blackgatonegro, It is not about "likes". I want to know what is going on with the digital audio in my system? I can hear music, videos, very nice. But I want to know If the audio is arriving at my Receiver exactly as it is in the source file. | 15:38 |
| LjL | spanther: then wait one/two more hours | 15:38 |
| LjL | spanther: 2000000/130/3600 is 4.27, so it's natural it takes more than 4 hours | 15:38 |
| nuno_ | I have my VirtualBox VMs folder | 15:38 |
| blackgatonegro | maurizi0, pulseaudio can be used to select audio volume, what audio is played, what devices will be allowed to play audio, is a control program, not a decoder. | 15:39 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: yes! it is | 15:39 |
| nuno_ | the tranfers(?) folder is almost empty | 15:39 |
| caixa | any help with weather applet? it isnt displaying any info even though i configured it already... | 15:39 |
| spanther | 100mbyte/s x 20000 should be the time hmmm | 15:39 |
| ekim1 | Hi all, I have a camera that I plugged into ubuntu 12.04 after taking some pics and it doesnt seem to come up so I can get the pics off. Do I need to do something special to get it to show up on my computer? | 15:39 |
| Fyodorovna | caixa, I had mine not working yesterday I changed the feed from google to yahoo it works now. | 15:40 |
| BluesKaj | blackgatonegro: it has a levels of processing in the analog mode | 15:40 |
| spanther | is it correct that /dev/urandom takes longer to accomplish than /dev/null? | 15:40 |
| maurizi0 | blackgatonegro, If it is not a decoder, how it is possible to PulseAudio to change between Stereo and 5.1 in my system? | 15:40 |
| dr--willis | spanther: i beluve so | 15:40 |
| Fyodorovna | caixa, I just checked it is now on google and working right click it and go to preferences. | 15:41 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: there are stereo tracks in the movie file along with the 5.1 tracks | 15:41 |
| BluesKaj | if the 5.1 tracks exist | 15:42 |
| deadmund | ekim1: does anything show up in the output of dmesg | 15:42 |
| blackgatonegro | maurizi0, by controlling the sound card, if the soundcard does not support it well, it wont work. If you wanna play with the audio options try using Pulseaudio with Audacity. | 15:42 |
| caixa | dint work ;\ | 15:43 |
| maurizi0 | blackgatonegro, BluesKaj : When I choose 5.1 in PulseAudio my Receiver says It is receiving a PCM signal. When I set Pulse to Stereo, my Receiver let me set a lot of audio configurations and options. And not say It is PCM anymore. What in the heck is going on? :D | 15:43 |
| ekim1 | deadmund: sorry but I dont know what you mean! In windows, I plug it in and it shows up as a usb drive so I thought it would kinda work the same in ubuntu. | 15:43 |
| deadmund | ekim1: have you ever used the terminal before? | 15:43 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: have you installed pavucontrol ? | 15:43 |
| ekim1 | deadmund: a few times. | 15:44 |
| RichR | for all the whoopla, it's amazing how shitty linux documentation is | 15:44 |
| deadmund | ekim1: open it up and run the command 'dmesg' | 15:44 |
| deadmund | (without quotes) | 15:44 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, no. | 15:44 |
| blackgatonegro | maurizi0, well, pulseaudio is not an audio decoder is just controls the soundcard/s basically. | 15:44 |
| caixa | anyone know how to modify the powermizer levels in nvidia settings? | 15:44 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: pulseaidio itself has no GUI , but pavucontrol does , that's where you select the output streams , like DD and DTS 5.1 | 15:44 |
| shamhack3 | Hi. to all... | 15:46 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: do you understand now why you need pavucontrol ? | 15:46 |
| ekim1 | deadmund: I just unplugged it and replugged it back in and it came up showing a folder now.....weird. Thanks for the tip and I will write that down incase it happens again. | 15:46 |
| deadmund | ekim1: yeah, I didn't do anything :P Sometimes weird things happen. Ubuntu is not perfect. | 15:46 |
| shamhack3 | please give me the solution of this problems shamhack3 | 15:46 |

| protist | im on ethernet | 15:47 |

| blackgatonegro | maurizi0, then just select the pcm opcion. | 15:48 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: pavucontrol also does the pass thru ..I'm using with my receiver which shows the digital signal as PCM or Dolby Digital or DTS depending on the sound tracks recorded in the video | 15:49 |

The file is here http://pastie.org/private/foeipcsyatq81qcahqpsa my issue is that I do not have a 'build' sub-dir in /lib/modules/*kernelver*/ is this because the Makefile is incorrect for Ubuntu, or because there is something lacking from my system? | 15:49 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, I see, I will try pavucontrol. Do you have Ubuntu 12.04? | 15:50 |

| L3top | shamhack3: Generally these problems exist because you have some PPA creating a dependency problem. | 15:52 |

| Abhijit | nuno_, you mean data loss? | 15:54 |
| nuno_ | yes | 15:54 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, where do I find Pavucontrol in the apps menu? Which is the command to run it? | 15:54 |
| Abhijit | !recover | nunnsby | 15:54 |
| ubottu | nunnsby: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel | 15:54 |
| Abhijit | nuno_, ^^^^ | 15:54 |
| blackgatonegro | shadow98 use synaptic package manager, go to "not installed residual config" and mark everything there for complete removal, just to be sure. | 15:54 |
| userone | apt-get install pavucontrol? | 15:54 |
| EricBlade | hey guys. the sqlite3 and libsqlite3-dev packages don't seem to actually install libsqlite3 .. am i missing something? | 15:55 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: open a terminal ,sudo apt-get install pavucontrol | 15:56 |
| wrektjet | can i ask questions about 11.10 here still | 15:56 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, No, I already installed it. And no problem, I already found it in the system. | 15:56 |
| Fyodorovna | wrektjet, yes | 15:56 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, Now I trying to understand what I see in the Pavucontrol GUI. | 15:56 |
| genii-around | wrektjet: Any version which is not yet End-Of-Life :-) | 15:56 |
| spanther | loool i found out something which will speed up the DD... | 15:57 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, I see an interesting option colled AC3 :D | 15:57 |
| blackgatonegro | EricBlade, go to synaptic package manager, search libsqlite3, pick install if it needs some packages, ubuntu should install it, if that does not work, install a program that uses the libsqlite3 libraries, like pidgin. | 15:57 |
| maurizi0 | called* | 15:57 |
| spanther | i missed the bs=1M tag behind everything so my wipe was much slower than possible :( | 15:57 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: yes AC3 is Dolby Digital , | 15:57 |
| wrektjet | k thnx. suddenly my sidebar doesnt autohide or move from active windows and its covering important portions of windows how can i remedy this? it used to be in compiz under i belive the unity plugin i could control this via "dodge active window" | 15:57 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: do you see DTS , check that too | 15:58 |
| userone | Can someone help me with my volume control does not work in 10.04, im currently using kmix on KDE and my device is IEC958 | 15:58 |
| maurizi0 | yes, I see that, BluesKaj | 15:58 |
| theadmin | userone: Are you sure the right channel is selected? Are you on a laptop? | 15:58 |
| L3top | userone: that is a digital signal. It is on or off. There is no volume control on the PC. It can only be controlled at the destination device. | 15:59 |
| BluesKaj | DTS is superior to DD in my experience , much higher bitrates for all channels, maurizi0 | 15:59 |
| userone | theadmin, yes im on a laptop | 15:59 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, thank you. I like what I see in Pavucontrol. Nice options. I selected everyone :D | 15:59 |
| userone | theadmin, there is a red x on my volume control speaker | 15:59 |
| blackgatonegro | userone, first 10.04 is discontinued, update to 12.04, second, tried with pulseaudio? | 15:59 |
| theadmin | userone: Then you basically need to select PCM as the main channel (don't quite remember how to do it) | 15:59 |
| L3top | theadmin: It is digital. There is no control PC side. | 15:59 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: of course not all movies have DTS audio , most have DD/AC3 tho | 16:00 |
| L3top | 1004 is NOT discontinued blackgatonegro | 16:00 |
| userone | ok thanks | 16:00 |
| userone | im not updating but thanks | 16:00 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, Now I am playing mp3 and the receiver says it is PCM, is that right? | 16:00 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: EAC probly won't work , there isn't much media using that | 16:00 |
| userone | theadmin, I will go under device manager and see if I can bump it up. | 16:00 |
| Jon-- | Attempting to use a generic Linux Makefile to install some src code. The file is here http://pastie.org/private/foeipcsyatq81qcahqpsa my issue is that I do not have a 'build' sub-dir in /lib/modules/*kernelver*/ is this because the Makefile is incorrect for Ubuntu, or because there is something lacking from my system? [one hour asking so far, new record #ubuntu good job] | 16:00 |
| EricBlade | blah. all the ubuntu programs depend on libsqlite3 but libsqlite3 doesn't do anything, and the programs actually use libsqlite0 | 16:01 |
| theadmin | userone: Open "alsamixer" in the terminal and bump PCM all the way up | 16:01 |
| BluesKaj | yes , maurizi0 , that's a function of your receiver's digital stream detection system | 16:01 |
| blackgatonegro | 10.04 will be discontinued in April 2013 for desktop versions | 16:01 |
| L3top | userone: right click the kmix icon and choose "Select Master Channel" | 16:02 |
| userone | theadmin, I only see PCH i have 2 intel adapters and 1 nvidia adapter. im on m14x alienware laptop | 16:02 |
| ollie_ | I've created an ad-hoc wifi connection, but left it unsecured as my phone can't connect it when it is secured. How do I go about making a whitelist? | 16:02 |
| userone | thadmin, l3top, I will try both | 16:02 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, And why Pulseaudio send mp3 in PCM format? | 16:02 |
| theadmin | userone: Err... Huh. Sorry, not too sure, that's just how it is with all the laptops I worked with | 16:02 |
| L3top | Yes... that means it has not reached EOL blackgatonegro. It is still supported. | 16:03 |
| nuno_ | please can anyone help me recovering my files? | 16:03 |
| jrib | !recover | nuno_ | 16:03 |
| ubottu | nuno_: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel | 16:03 |
| BluesKaj | all digital is PCM , it's not an audio codec , maurizi0 | 16:03 |
| L3top | userone: are you just trying to get the laptop speakers to make audio? Because the IEC is going to be digital, like an HDMI connection. | 16:03 |
| BluesKaj | mp3 is audio codec | 16:04 |
| userone | my master volume channel is empty, lol | 16:04 |
| nuno_ | ok, but this a odd situation | 16:04 |
| protist | anyone know an easy way to convert mp2 to mp3? | 16:04 |
| userone | I have sound on my laptop, I just cannot control my system volume | 16:04 |
| userone | its very loud | 16:04 |
| blackgatonegro | nuno_ tried recovery is possible? http://www.tux.org/pub/people/kent-robotti/looplinux/rip/ | 16:04 |
| kamile | protist : vlc | 16:04 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, And why the Receiver do not says it is PCM when I select Stereo in PulseAudio? | 16:04 |
| protist | kamile: thankyou | 16:04 |
| nuno_ | because the hard drive analyser see the space occupied, but i cant see the files | 16:04 |
| BluesKaj | maurizi0: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-code_modulation | 16:05 |
| maurizi0 | BluesKaj, does not say* | 16:05 |
| Abhijit | protist, use mobile media convertor | 16:05 |
| dsadas | how can I extract .sql3 to text? | 16:05 |
| protist | Abhijit: i just got vlc gonna try it....unless there is an advantage to mobile media convereter? | 16:06 |
| Abhijit | not sure | 16:06 |
| L3top | userone: right clicking the kmix icon, you should be able to select the appropriate volume mixer channel to control. | 16:06 |
| protist | well thankyou :) | 16:06 |
| Eagleman | Is it safe to put this in a script and execute it on startup? screen -d -m -S ts3bot java -jar JTS3ServerMod.jar | 16:06 |
| blackgatonegro | nuno_, when recovery hard disk data, make sure the power won't go off, and is usually better to boot to ram, specially if you only have one hard disk. If the power goes off when you are tryng to format a hard disk, it might come unusable. | 16:06 |
| wrektjet | can someone assist in getting the sidebar/edge to stop covering active windows and go back to auto-hide | 16:07 |
| L3top | No telling Eagleman. | 16:08 |
| blackgatonegro | protist, mobile media converter is basically to convert your files to use on portable devices. LVC is good to play many video formats, so it depends on what you need. | 16:08 |
| shadow98 | blackgatonegro, where do i find that exaclty in synaptic | 16:08 |
| cloudgeek | I just installed wireshark , when i start capturing it says like "there are no interfaces on which a capture can be done " | 16:09 |
| userone | l3top, yes there is a channel selected, and sound works fine, I just cant adjust the volume, its crazy | 16:09 |
| blackgatonegro | shadow98, click the "status" button | 16:09 |
| deadmund | cloudgeek: you need to run it as root I think. | 16:09 |
| userone | cloudgeek, ifconfig | 16:09 |
| deadmund | cloudgeek: or you have no network devices (but I'm assuming you do) | 16:09 |
| EricBlade | hmm.. apparently we need a 32-bit sqlite3. grrrr. | 16:09 |

| userone | cloudgeek make sure you are showing wlan0, ath0 or somthing wireless interfeace | 16:09 |
| L3top | What channel is selected userone? | 16:10 |
| cloudgeek | userone: give me a sec let me check to reply your questions | 16:10 |
| userone | l3top, IEC958 | 16:10 |
| cloudgeek | ? | 16:10 |
| userone | l3top, master channel is emtpy | 16:10 |
| L3top | userone: in a terminal type alsamixer and find the channel that controls your volume... and select THAT one. IEC958, again, is going to be for like HDMI... for which there IS no volume control | 16:10 |
| cloudgeek | userone: eth0 avail | 16:11 |
| L3top | userone: you may also need to press f6 in alsamixer and select a different sound device. | 16:11 |
| cloudgeek | userone: let me run under sudo | 16:11 |
| userone | l3top, thanks | 16:11 |
| dsadas | cloudgeek: create wireshark group, add yourself to it, relogin and start wireshark | 16:12 |
| userone | l3top, I dont have alsamixer, | 16:12 |
| cloudgeek | dsadas: now working , thanks userone , i forget to give privellege access | 16:13 |

| Maxtone | snake: Or try W3 Schools. | 16:30 |
| _pg_ | llutz: I have a ssh server that I can open ports on and do whatever. I want to connect to a remote machine that I have no ability to open ports for. I want to initiate a connection from my server to that client and have it connect back to me. So I can tunnel Vnc traffic through the tunnel. I have a dynamic host name setup already | 16:30 |
| gvo | [snake]: or #css | 16:30 |

| DaSpawn | I just may have found: http://notes-matthewlmcclure.blogspot.com/2009/12/change-login-screen-power-management.html | 16:36 |
| _pg_ | llutz: I already have Ssh, Vnc, started on that remote machine, just no way to open ports for it. Any other ideas? | 16:36 |

| _pg_ | Psycho_pr: You mean HFS? | 16:37 |
| Psycho_pr | Yes, yes, sorry! | 16:37 |
| _pg_ | Psycho_pr: I think there's a package you need to install call hfsplus. Its in the repos. | 16:38 |
| Psycho_pr | _pg_: Fangs! | 16:38 |
| _pg_ | Psycho_pr: It's going to be read only though, unless you disable journaling. Which is a bad idea. | 16:38 |
| Psycho_pr | Though it is weird because other Mac OS X drivers work well. | 16:38 |

| Psycho_pr | ok | 16:41 |
| _pg_ | Psycho_pr: Wikipedia it. The driver is already installed on your machine but is disabled for drives bigger than two tb. It can corrupt them | 16:41 |
| soulstitchmmo | blackgatonegro, I opened up Dash Home, typed in Multimedia, and only VLC was there. | 16:41 |
| Psycho_pr | Oh nos | 16:42 |
| Psycho_pr | So what can I do?? | 16:42 |
| _pg_ | Psycho_pr In 2009, these drivers were diagnosed to be corrupting HFS+ drives with a capacity greater than 2 TB.[14] Consequently, Linux distributions such as Debian and Ubuntu also stopped allowing mounting of HFS+ drives or partitions greater than 2 TB.[15] As of February 2011, work is in progress to lift this restriction.[16] | 16:43 |
| Psycho_pr | I see... | 16:44 |
| _pg_ | Psycho_pr: Bummrr | 16:44 |
| Psycho_pr | Fangs anyways. | 16:45 |
| g105b | can someone help me remove the backslash from this string using grep? A simple example: echo "te\st" | grep -oP '[^\\]*' but my problem is that it returns two lines, "te" and "st", I want to only have one output of "test" | 16:45 |
| Pici | g105b: don't use grep for that. use sed. echo "te\st" | sed 's/\\//' | 16:48 |
| L3top | cant you use sed g105b? That would be pretty easy. | 16:48 |

| g105b | I'm not familiar with sed, can you help me remove double-quotes while we're at it? | 16:50 |
| L3top | echo "te\st" | sed 's/\\//;s/"//g' | 16:51 |
| L3top | echo "\"te\st\"" | sed 's/\\//;s/"//g' would work better g105b as a test. | 16:53 |
| L3top | echo "\"te\st\"" | sed 's/\\//' reveals that there are now quotes... the former takes them away. | 16:53 |
| theadmin | L3top: You know that you don't have to build a whole mess out of slashes? You can use a different separator, e.g. echo l0l | sed 's#0#o#g' | 16:53 |
| g105b | L3top: thanks | 16:54 |
| L3top | theadmin: yeah... Pici started with slashes... didn't want to further confuse the situation. | 16:55 |

| sudo-apt-get | theadmin, best programmers in my college use arch linux | 17:42 |

The file is here http://pastie.org/private/foeipcsyatq81qcahqpsa my issue is that I do not have a 'build' sub-dir in /lib/modules/*kernelver*/ is this because the Makefile is incorrect for Ubuntu, or because there is something lacking from my system? | 18:14 |

| gischy | ^^ | 18:16 |
| NetRunnerBlack | Not recently | 18:16 |
| NetRunnerBlack | I've added source packages in the past though, should I update again? | 18:16 |

| Jon-- | roryy, Hold on a second, I installed linux-headers-generic but that may be for a different kernel version | 18:18 |
| CaptainQuirk | NetRunnerBlack, Have you tried to find a match on google for your problem | 18:19 |
| theadmin | Kingsy: Me | 18:20 |
| Kingsy | theadmin: are you using the catalyst control center? or the open drivers that come with ubuntu? | 18:20 |

| luminarycrush | Hi, I'm having trouble getting 12.04 64-bit server to install on an Atom 330 machine w/ 4G RAM - upon first reboot there is a kernel panic. 32-bit installs fine but I have a requirement for some 64-bit only code (ZFS). Will Ubuntu server 64-bit install on the Atom platform? | 18:28 |
| theadmin | Costeelation: Uh, no, to program you need a ) a compiler (normally CLI), b ) a text editor (whether GUI or CLI) | 18:28 |
| Costeelation | or is for program in a console | 18:28 |
| ALIAZ | test | 18:28 |
| Kingsy | toafan: do you know of a tool to setup them up with? say you didnt want clones? you wanted a seperate display? or side by side displays? | 18:28 |
| toafan | Kingsy: yup. Laptop LCD and external VGA monitor | 18:28 |
| rbb2 | hi i installed compiz and compiz manager in xubuntu and it works fine but i also installed gnome shell 2 , metacity , so do i realy need that | 18:29 |

| rbb2 | plses help do i need gnome shell 4 in xubuntu to enable compiz | 18:30 |
| Costeelation | now you can tell me a compiler and a text editor? | 18:30 |
| theadmin | Costeelation: No, it's a compiler. Thing that turns text into something your computer can run. | 18:30 |
| toafan | Kingsy: really? It does for me. does it see all your connected displays? | 18:30 |
| Kingsy | toafan: yeah | 18:31 |
| Kingsy | toafan: I am using xubuntu.. perhaps that could be the problem? | 18:31 |
| toafan | Kingsy: are they all 'on'? | 18:31 |
| toafan | Kingsy: could be? I'm using Unity | 18:31 |
| Kingsy | yeah... well I have all 3 displays on at the moment.. they are all clones | 18:31 |
| Kingsy | so all 3 displays have the same thing on them.. | 18:31 |
| morganwk | hello, I am a semi-newb with a somewhat disquieting problem with my ubuntu disc | 18:32 |
| theadmin | morganwk: What seems to be the problem? | 18:32 |
| morganwk | so I am trying to install ubuntu on my C drive (currently running vista on D), so I got the iso and put it on a dvd, I set bios to load the dvd drive first, and then when I turned it on, it loaded into windows anyway, after some weird bios gibberish text (or gibberish to me at least, something about media fail and check cable) | 18:32 |
| Costeelation | theadmin, mm ok thanks | 18:32 |
| RomeoAva | when i tray to install some programs i receive that: CD/DVD 'Ubuntu 12.04 LTS _Precise Pangolin_ - Release amd64 (20120425)' is required | 18:32 |
| toafan | Kingsy: mm, well, in my 'displays' window, I can select displays and there's a switch to turn them 'on' and 'off'. Controls whether it gets used. | 18:32 |
| RomeoAva | what means that? | 18:32 |
| Kingsy | toafan: yeah there is here too.. but there is no options to decide if you want it to be a clone, a seperate display.. which side you want it on.. make it a new X session etc etc | 18:33 |
| Kingsy | its very very basic | 18:33 |
| ALIAZ | heyho, does anyone know a good ide for c++ programming under linux(i m currently using backtrack+vim+gnu compiler) ? | 18:34 |
| toafan | Kingsy: I don't know about some of the more advanced stuff you mentioned, but I've got a checkbox labeled "mirror displays". Unchecked, they're different, checked, they show the same thing (clone output) | 18:34 |

| theadmin | morganwk: Nobody knows = nobody answers. Repeating the question is fine unless you do it too often. | 18:35 |
| morganwk | so I am trying to install ubuntu on my C drive (currently running vista on D), so I got the iso and put it on a dvd, I set bios to load the dvd drive first, and then when I turned it on, it loaded into windows anyway, after some weird bios gibberish text (or gibberish to me at least, something about media fail and check cable) | 18:35 |
| morganwk | I might be able to take a picture of the bios error screen, but not a screenshot | 18:36 |
| Kingsy | toafan: yeah thats exactly what I need.. and I don't have those options | 18:36 |
| ALIAZ | ok, i have to get used to this, by now i worked with bloodshed dev c++ under windows so... | 18:36 |

| RiXtEr | morganwk, does it even read the dvd? | 18:37 |
| Costeelation | shareit | 18:37 |
| RiXtEr | does the light flash at all? | 18:37 |
| MagneticDuck | yo, I have a question about alias | 18:37 |
| MagneticDuck | I assigned "returns" to "echo $?" | 18:37 |
| morganwk | oh, uh, I think it does read the dvd. does it matter that I have the cd release burned on the dvd? | 18:37 |
| MagneticDuck | using "alias returns="echo $?"" | 18:38 |
| MagneticDuck | (w/out quotes) | 18:38 |
| MagneticDuck | however... | 18:38 |
| MagneticDuck | it seems to only return one value | 18:38 |
| SkippersBoss | morganwk, booting/installing ubuntu from stick might be a better solution | 18:38 |
| MagneticDuck | it doesn't change | 18:38 |
| morganwk | I tried from usb, same error | 18:38 |
| MagneticDuck | I might as well say "returns=`echo $?`" | 18:38 |
| RiXtEr | morganwk, it might matter, you didn't just burn the file right? your burnt the iso to the disk correctly? | 18:38 |
| Costeelation | hi again guys... why my desktop login not sound? :( | 18:38 |
| morganwk | I downloaded the iso two or three different times, once by torrent | 18:39 |
| morganwk | I used winrar to extract the files onto the dvd | 18:39 |
| RomeoAva | when i tray to install some programs is asking me to insert a disk: CD/DVD 'Ubuntu 12.04 LTS _Precise Pangolin_ - Release amd64 (20120425)' is required | 18:39 |
| MagneticDuck | "returns" always gives two | 18:39 |
| MagneticDuck | ..? | 18:39 |
| Costeelation | download the desktop iso no dvd | 18:40 |
| toafan | morganwk: dunno what winrar does, did you use ISO buning software? | 18:40 |
| theadmin | MagneticDuck: Well, the alias is configured at the time your rcfile is read. Therefore, it uses the value of $? at the time the script is read. | 18:40 |
| Costeelation | maybe you burn with errors | 18:40 |
| MagneticDuck | theadmin: it doesn't seem like that | 18:40 |
| SkippersBoss | morganwk, how did u create ur stick ?? | 18:40 |
| MagneticDuck | I'll post everything I typed in the problem session | 18:40 |
| morganwk | no I didn't. is there something other than the files in the iso that makes the disc bootable, like the way the iso burns it? | 18:40 |
| morganwk | I guess I'll try actual iso burning software but I don't think it matters (and I'm running out of DVD's) | 18:41 |
| SkippersBoss | morganwk, | 18:41 |
| SkippersBoss | did u use http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ to create ur stick ?? | 18:41 |
| Qtr | Is there some common problem a lot of people have at linux that i could solve. Like some boring app that I could write a program to solve. Not a huge program but something like 1K-5K LOC. | 18:42 |
| morganwk | but until then I will take a picture of the boot error and stuff | 18:42 |
| MagneticDuck | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1121943/ | 18:43 |
| MagneticDuck | theadmin | 18:43 |
| MagneticDuck | I don't understand why returns isn't working | 18:43 |
| === jkeiper__ is now known as jkeiper | ||
| theadmin | MagneticDuck: Because $? is read at the time you run "alias ...", not every time you *use* the alias | 18:44 |
| MagneticDuck | ahah | 18:44 |
| MagneticDuck | how would I make alias store a literal string without evaluating it? | 18:44 |
| caixa | can anyone tell me how to customize the tray icons? | 18:44 |
| MagneticDuck | so returns would really just substitute a command | 18:44 |
| theadmin | MagneticDuck: You don't. Use this: function returns { echo $? } | 18:44 |
| MagneticDuck | caixa: using Unity? | 18:45 |
| MagneticDuck | theadmin: I can do that in the bash? | 18:45 |
| MagneticDuck | or do I have to make a bash file? | 18:45 |
| MagneticDuck | caixa: If so, just drag them around | 18:45 |
| theadmin | MagneticDuck: You can do both | 18:45 |
| caixa | MagneticDuck, you sure? im talking about the system tray icons... | 18:45 |
| MagneticDuck | to pin one, run it and then rightclick on the application in the bar, and click "pin*" | 18:45 |
| toafan | will just doing it in bash 'stick' across settings? | 18:45 |
| MagneticDuck | ahah | 18:46 |
| MagneticDuck | caixa: x) Yeah, I don't think you can | 18:46 |
| MagneticDuck | theadmin: ty | 18:46 |

| donsd | Are flash drives NOT recommended for backup? | 18:51 |

| Kingsy | I know arandr is there.. but that seems to have a bug | 19:14 |
| morganwk | does it make a difference if I extract from the iso or burn using it? | 19:14 |
| morganwk | also what is md5sum | 19:14 |
| bestdnd | i started to have sound issues today. using totem, the sound works like before, but in chrome (youtube) and in wine (diablo) the sound is flaky- sounds like it plays for half a second and waits for half a second. cpu tops up to 60% while playing, so i guess it's not this. what else can it be? | 19:14 |
| Kingsy | trism: lol kinda stupid saying as tho arandr has a bug | 19:14 |
| Kingsy | it doesnt run AT ALL | 19:14 |

| morganwk | not that I doubt its existence or your expertise, but what is the difference between just putting the files from the iso on it and burning it? | 19:17 |
| Kingsy | nice | 19:17 |
| gvo | morganwk: the difference is that more than just the files need to go on the iso, for one thing. | 19:18 |
| gvo | sorry go on the cd. | 19:18 |
| morganwk | yeah I get it | 19:18 |
| morganwk | I guess I'll look it up later, sounds interesting | 19:18 |

| === zz_diddledan is now known as diddledan | ||
| theadmin | kevininspain: Is it the same in all videos? What player do you use? | 19:35 |
| kevininspain | I have installed VLC But in the actual file where I store the videos they are just orange strips | 19:36 |
| annie | I'm trying to install Ubunta 12.04 to a 32 gb USB thumb drive. Can someone give me the usual partition table? I've tried several different partitions and they don't work. | 19:36 |
| kevininspain | when I pass then to my usb hard drive I can see them appearing, strange I can see whats inside each video file in the external USB drive an not in the actual computer | 19:37 |
| ActionParsnip | kevininspain: did you install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 19:37 |
| ActionParsnip | annie: how much RAM does the system have? | 19:38 |
| kevininspain | ah no I did not | 19:38 |
| kevininspain | how do I install them via package manager ? | 19:39 |
| ActionParsnip | kevininspain: search for the package name I gave.... | 19:39 |
| gvo | annie: are you aware that there is a 4 GB limit to fat32 (vfat) partitions? | 19:39 |
| kevininspain | ActionParsnip, OK | 19:39 |

| gvo | annie: that's a fact however. vfat partitons are limited to 4 Gb. | 19:42 |
| annie | 8gb | 19:43 |
| gvo | annie http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Allocation_Table#FAT32 | 19:43 |
| fusk | ActionParsnip, i want to remove some of the options at the boot menu, leaving default linux & windows boot. | 19:43 |
| ActionParsnip | annie: 8Gb for / formatted Ext4, 8.8Gb for swap space and the rest formatted Ext4 for /home | 19:43 |
| ActionParsnip | fusk: if you can give a pastebin of the output of: uname -a; dpkg -l | grep linux-image I can give a command to remove all but the running kernel | 19:44 |
| annie | tx ActionParsnip I'll divvy it up now. | 19:44 |
| caixa | aclocal, 8gb for /? is that enough? | 19:44 |
| gvo | annie If you want to do a persistent install create two partitions named caspe-rw and home-rw | 19:45 |
| caixa | ActionParsnip, don't installed apps go to / ? | 19:45 |
| Multbrelch | nobody has an idea with "savely remove drive" in cairo-dock? | 19:45 |
| ActionParsnip | annie: seperate /home and / isn't necessary, it's just handy for backups :) | 19:45 |
| ActionParsnip | caixa: yes | 19:45 |
| kevininspain | ActionParsnip, will re boot and see | 19:45 |

| Phili | i tried installing ubuntu 12.4 on an old amd64 laptop (using the text-only installer), at the first boot, it freezes while loading (the dots below "ubuntu" don't even fill from white to orange), what can i do? | 19:49 |
| fusk | ActionParsnip, as i see it, it doesn't remove memtest options, right ? | 19:49 |
| d1gital | I think my problem is in loading the drivers. I can `modprobe acpi_cpufreq` with no errors, but `lsmod | grep freq` immediately after lists nothing. | 19:49 |
| gvo | Phili there was a bug WRT broadcom chips on laptops that hung boot processes. I don't know if that's been fixed yet or not. | 19:50 |
| ActionParsnip | fusk: no, that is in a different package | 19:50 |
| Phili | what shall i do? | 19:50 |
| ActionParsnip | d1gital: try: modprobe -vv acpi_cpufreq | 19:50 |
| fusk | ActionParsnip, can you just uninstall memtest ? | 19:51 |
| ActionParsnip | Phili: what video chip do you use? | 19:51 |
| ActionParsnip | fusk: sure if you want to | 19:51 |
| Phili | ati x700 | 19:51 |
| gvo | Phili: Start by searching for that bug. There is something that you can do at boot time to prevent the loading of the firmware. | 19:51 |
| ActionParsnip | fusk: sudo apt-get --purge remove memtest86+ | 19:51 |
| Phili | ok thanks | 19:51 |
| gvo | Phili: does it have a broadcom wireless card? | 19:51 |
| annie | ActionParsnip, I created the partition table and it's saying I need to go back and create a 1MB reserved bios boot area mounded on /boot? | 19:51 |
| ActionParsnip | Phili: try the boot option: nomodeset | 19:52 |
| gvo | Phili: ^^^ that too | 19:52 |
| Phili | i'll try, yes it is a broadcom chip | 19:52 |
| fusk | Is there a difference to that uninstall, and just uninstalling through the app store ? | 19:52 |

| wrapids | gvo: That was the initial problem. I attempted the reboot, it took 20 minutes to power off, then came back up like everything was fine. I've noticed a hit on my gitlab site causes mysql to eat some seriosu ram however. Between that, the mysql crashes, it leads me to believe the problem is related to those two. | 19:58 |

| macswell | gvo: no errors, but it does not appear to have mounted | 20:18 |
| gvo | df -h /mnt | 20:18 |
| shadow98 | ActionParsnip, that worked thanks | 20:19 |
| macswell | gvo: interesting | 20:19 |
| gvo | What? | 20:19 |
| macswell | gvo: that returned the filesystem size, usage, etc | 20:19 |
| shadow98 | btw, how do you do a listing that will ignore case? | 20:19 |
| macswell | gvo: ls -l /mnt returns total 0 | 20:19 |
| macswell | gvo: df -h /mnt returns that info | 20:19 |
| gvo | macswell: what info? | 20:20 |
| macswell | gvo: Filesystem, size, used, avail, use%, Mounted on | 20:20 |
| pzaljr | hey so I just joined this channel...and this is crazy. But: I was running a rather long install process via putty into a ubuntu remote server, and my client crashed. I can tell it's still running via ps aux but...is there any way to get back into watching the install status, as it was? Here's my number~ | 20:20 |
| MonkeyDust | gvo type it and you'ls see | 20:20 |
| MonkeyDust | you'll* | 20:21 |
| gvo | macswell: and that info showed the usb device mounted on /mnt? | 20:21 |
| macswell | gvo: correct | 20:21 |
| gvo | macswell: so you have a usb drive with an empty vfat (fat32) partition. | 20:21 |
| macswell | gvo: correct the drive does not have any data on it | 20:22 |

| r3dLunchb0x_ | MOTD, how to change it and personalize it per user who logs in? | 20:24 |
| macswell | gvo: it's alright, I wanted to get some generic help troubleshooting but I am working with a proprietary form of terminal services and usb redirection | 20:24 |
| trism | r3dLunchb0x_: it is controlled by the scripts in /etc/update-motd.d/ | 20:24 |
| macswell | gvo: its likely there's a lot more going on with the system than the usual | 20:24 |
| r3dLunchb0x_ | trism: ty, gonna go look at them. ;-) | 20:24 |
| gvo | macswell: There are reasons it wouldn't work all the time, but I don't know why it wouldn't work for a valid device. Good luck. | 20:25 |
| macswell | gvo: yeah, what's interesting is that some drives work or do not depending on the filesystem I use | 20:25 |
| macswell | gvo: the drive I'm working with right now will function if I format it to NTFS rather than FAT32 | 20:25 |

| sarbull | hi guys, i own an Alienware M11x, and i run ubuntu 12.04, it get's overheated, help? ideas ? | 20:41 |
| Relondo | Sarbull: Did this ever happen with Windows? | 20:41 |
| OerHeks | Relondo, probably your user pass and keyring pass are different. | 20:42 |
| Relondo | Sarbull: Because the M11x is just sorta notorious for overheating. | 20:42 |
| Relondo | OerHeks: What is my keyring, then? | 20:42 |
| douglas | obex-data-server crashed with SIGSEGV in dbus_connection_ref@plt() | 20:42 |
| douglas | any one know anything about that ^^? | 20:42 |
| Relondo | OerHeks: (Not what is my password, as in, what is a keyring). | 20:42 |
| OerHeks | Relondo, keyring/seahorse stores passwords, for wifi and applications. | 20:43 |
| MonkeyDust | douglas obex is part of bluetooth, iirc | 20:43 |
| === Drag0nir_ is now known as Drag0nir | ||
| douglas | MonkeyDust: yeah, it crashes everytime startup. | 20:43 |
| sarbull | he's overheating because of the Hard-Disk i think, the proccesor is cool, alienware m11x have a metal plate on his back and it kinda heats up | 20:43 |
| Relondo | OerHeks: Oh, so there's a central program for handling that stuff in linux? Nice. | 20:43 |
| sarbull | the problem is that m11x have two video cards, one dedicated and one onboard, and i think ubuntu turns the both ON using only the integrated one.. | 20:44 |
| Rosi | rwar | 20:44 |
| sarbull | how can i disable a hardware component on ubuntu? | 20:44 |
| Relondo | Sarbull: Do you think it's overheating because you feel heat, or because you are using a heat monitor? Also, did this ever happen with Windows? | 20:44 |
| sarbull | i feel heat ! it happened when i was on the dedicated video chip(nvidia) playing games and sh*t | 20:45 |
| Relondo | Sarbull: Because if you just feel it near the fan, that just means that the fan is working. | 20:45 |
| Relondo | Sarbull: My laptop is always warm near the fan. But the rest of it is fine. It's just the fan doing its job. | 20:46 |
| mecormin1080_ | see if you can disable it in the bios | 20:46 |
| sarbull | Relondo: the proccesor is fine, around 40 degrees, the nvidia chipset is the problem, it should be turned off .. | 20:46 |
| Relondo | sarbull: Alright. | 20:46 |
| sarbull | Relondo: how can i disable a hardware component? | 20:46 |
| Relondo | Sarbull: Possibly in the BIOS. | 20:47 |
| Relondo | Sarbull: Or take a look at this: http://superuser.com/questions/324210/ubuntu-11-04-disable-nvidia-graphics-card | 20:47 |
| Relondo | Sarbull: Not your card, but the same question. | 20:47 |
| Relondo | OerHeks: But my keyring and user passwords are the same. | 20:48 |

| sarbull | Relondo: interesting link, i'm reading it right now | 20:49 |

| sarbull | Relondo: turning it on from the bios, i dont know if the nvidia is turned on right now, on windows, when i turn off the nvidia, the system is cool enough for no worries, but when i turn nvidia back on, on windows it heats up .. | 20:55 |

| iceroot | RSvedman: or when you can still boot the ubuntu (which creates the grub a "sudo update-grub2" should be fine | 21:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Praxi: is it only an issue in the web browser? | 21:45 |

| localg0d | I am curious if anyone here can tell me how come I cannot right click my task bars after reverting to classic gnome session in the new 12.04 . I can't figure out how to unlock/add anything to the top and bottom taskbars ? | 21:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Praxi: np dude, the settings from the old sound config were stinking up the place, you jeust generated some fresh ones after the update with the newer alsa / pulse etc | 21:46 |
| localg0d | How do i unlock my taskbars so that I can right click them and add things to the taskbar such as processor and internet monitoring please ? | 21:48 |
| localg0d | any admins in here awake ? | 21:51 |
| RSvedman | iceroot: sudo update-grub2 was the trick in my case, that made grub aware i have installed netbsd on the second disk. thanks a lot! | 21:52 |
| iceroot | RSvedman: you are welcome | 21:52 |
| ActionParsnip | localg0d: admins of what? | 21:52 |
| localg0d | anyone able to explain to me why the new 12.04 is soo dwarfed ... I can't even RIGHT CLICK my taskbar to add items to it | 21:52 |
| localg0d | i set my session for gnome classic fallback and i can't add jack chit to the taskbar sir .. | 21:53 |
| iceroot | localg0d: you are using a non-supported DE | 21:53 |
| ActionParsnip | localg0d: are you using the fallback session? | 21:53 |
| localg0d | yes i am | 21:53 |
| localg0d | lol | 21:53 |
| ActionParsnip | localg0d: i believe you have to hold ALT+CTRL then right click | 21:53 |
| zykotick9 | iceroot: gnome is no longer supported in #ubuntu? | 21:53 |
| ActionParsnip | localg0d: ALT + right click (if that doesn't work, try ALT + SUPER + right click) | 21:54 |
| localg0d | well ActionParsnip that isn't working ... do i need to install gnome full session or is there one ? | 21:54 |
| ActionParsnip | zykotick9: sure is as it is the default DE :) | 21:54 |
| localg0d | ok alt-windowsbutton-right click worked ActionParsnip .. thank you so much .. | 21:54 |
| ActionParsnip | localg0d: I suggest you use Xubuntu if you like the 2 panel desktop | 21:55 |

| iceroot | ActionParsnip: gcc is also in the repos, to we support c/c++ here? :) | 21:56 |
| localg0d | well ActionParsnip : I don't need the 2panel .. gnome is what i've grown up on since the days of redhat then mandrake and then arch linux and now ubuntu .. | 21:56 |

| uskerine | and it does not start | 22:30 |
| uskerine | ActionParsnip i am running the proper command "service dnsmasq start" as root | 22:31 |
| HelloMyNameIsJon | Hai! | 22:32 |
| beandog | uskerine: check /var/log/messages | 22:32 |
| ActionParsnip | ujoqaj: its a way to sync one folder to another, if you set the source as a folder with some data, and the dest as one with none, it will copy it over to match the data | 22:32 |
| beandog | uskerine: see if it throws an error there | 22:32 |
| ujoqaj | I'm attempting to install win7 while preserving some data, and am having various problems with every attempted install method, detailed http://pastebin.com/3ii1svZn here. Booting to DVD is impossible, booting to external USB install media works fine until the first reboot, then starts all over | 22:32 |
| ActionParsnip | uskerine: what is the output of the command please? | 22:32 |
| iceroot | ujoqaj: way to much text in the paste | 22:32 |
| ujoqaj | ActionParsnip: and this would avoid the risk of a freeze? since I'm on a live flash drive atm im not sure how itd handle having to start over | 22:32 |
| ujoqaj | iceroot: learn speed reading, it rulz | 22:33 |
| HelloMyNameIsJon | Would there be anyone kind enough out there to help me with some freenx stuff? :) | 22:33 |
| ActionParsnip | ujoqaj: it might help, worth a try, isn't it? | 22:33 |
| ujoqaj | i guess its better than any of the other peoples suggestions yeh | 22:33 |
| ActionParsnip | ujoqaj: also try other distros that aren't debian based, it may help | 22:33 |
| iceroot | ujoqaj: such a text is useless | 22:34 |
| ujoqaj | in which capacity | 22:34 |
| iceroot | ujoqaj: noone here will read it | 22:34 |
| ActionParsnip | ujoqaj: I strongly suggest you review your backup regime, you could have EASILY avoided this | 22:34 |

| Tylopilus | Hey, any1 here who can properly explain how to set up port forwarding via iptables ? | 22:37 |
| * Dr_Willis still wonders how installing windows was ubuntu support related... | 22:37 | |
| savr | I am running 12.04. I am not installing new software yet after each reboot logging in is taking a lot longer | 22:38 |
| Dr_Willis | properly explain? or explain how to Properly Forward Ports? | 22:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Dr_Willis: afaik, the so-called 'precious' data is stored on the partitions also holding an Ubuntu install | 22:38 |
| savr | I am on a new laptop with decent specs (8GB ram) | 22:38 |
| Tylopilus | Dr_Willis: both if possible :) | 22:38 |
| blackarchan_ | savr, how long???(aprox) | 22:39 |
| Duppy | re: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1122362/ Apache block requests form localhost? | 22:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Tylopilus: i tend to just read (then reread a month later when i need it again) various tutorials i find at delicious.com ;) they tend to tag the better sites there it seems. | 22:39 |
| savr | e.g. it use to take under 30 seconds from start up to loading the desktop. Now it is taking about 2 minutes. It freezes at the login prompt and then it leaves a blank screen for about 1 minute | 22:39 |
| Tylopilus | Dr_Willis: i got a apache running in a vm and i want to be able to access the apache over my machin on port 8080. So localhost:8080 -> vm:80 .. | 22:39 |
| HelloMyNameIsJon | Im trying to set up file sharing using freenx. I think I am doing everything right client side. and from nautilus i can browse to the shared folder on the client using the network places bit. However, despite there being a folder in the my shares. Its empty, and putting anything in there has no effect client side. any ideas anyone? | 22:40 |
| devtekalpha | Why do you need a 2gb usb stick for usb install... When you only need a 700mb cd for cd installing ubuntu? | 22:40 |
| iceroot | devtekalpha: ubuntu does not longer fit on a 700mb cd | 22:40 |
| devtekalpha | Oh | 22:41 |
| iceroot | devtekalpha: imo every release since 12.04 is affected | 22:41 |
| iceroot | 12.10 is affected for sure | 22:41 |
| devtekalpha | Well if i want usb does the stick have to be exactly 2gb? Will it work just as well if the usb drive is 4gb or 8gb? | 22:41 |
| Dr_Willis | Tylopilus: using the IP of the VM is too hard? You can set up VBOX where the vm appear on the local lan as if it was a real machine. | 22:41 |
| OerHeks | there are 800 mb cd+r available. | 22:41 |

| blackarchan_ | devtekalpha, yes | 22:42 |
| devtekalpha | Cool | 22:42 |
| iceroot | devtekalpha: minimium the size of the iso | 22:42 |
| iceroot | devtekalpha: bigger is not a problem | 22:42 |
| devtekalpha | And i should be getting a "flash usb" not any other type of external drive right | 22:42 |
| Tylopilus | Dr_Willis: i know but i cant get it to work with iptables :( im pretty frustrated by now | 22:42 |
| iceroot | devtekalpha: every external drive is fine | 22:42 |
| devtekalpha | Ok thankyou :) | 22:42 |

| iceroot | 701MB is the 12.04 iso | 22:43 |
| Dr_Willis | #24 on the list | 22:43 |
| blackarchan_ | iceroot, i guess 12.10 will be bigger | 22:44 |
| Dr_Willis | 12.10 i hear may need a DVD Not sre how big the alpha was i downoaded yesterdya | 22:44 |
| iceroot | blackarchan_: 12.10 will no longer support the 700mb size, some official posting contains that | 22:44 |
| TheLordOfTime | for all of you on 12.10: #ubuntu+1 for 12.10 discussions. | 22:44 |
| TheLordOfTime | or rather support. | 22:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Its quiet over there.. i get lonely in #ubuntu+1 ;P | 22:45 |
| iceroot | devtekalpha: you can also use the minimal iso, which will always fit on a cd, the installer is downloading the packages from the net | 22:45 |
| Costeelation | !hi | 22:45 |
| iceroot | !minimal | devtekalpha | 22:45 |
| ubottu | devtekalpha: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 22:45 |

| IdleOne | 12.10 is off topic for this channel. Please stop discussing it and go to #ubuntu+1 | 22:46 |
| devtekalpha | Ahh. Well im trying to move away from cds. Might not even bother fitting a cd drive on my new pc... I think usb is better | 22:47 |
| Dr_Willis | devtekalpha: yep. heading that way also on most new pcs i build. | 22:47 |
| iceroot | devtekalpha: yes, installing from usb is fine | 22:47 |
| devtekalpha | Yeh cool | 22:47 |
| iceroot | !usb | devtekalpha | 22:47 |

| devtekalpha | Thanks for the link | 22:47 |
| ActionParsnip | devtekalpha: if you are able you could setup a PXE server, no need for removable media at all :) | 22:48 |
| devtekalpha | I havnt heard of pxe but will read up about it | 22:49 |
| Hyperbyte | I have installed a new language in Ubuntu, and the language selector shows it as installed, but in the language selection screen of Gnome the language is still greyed out | 22:49 |
| Hyperbyte | Why can't I select the language? | 22:49 |
| djzn | does 'gnome-classic' run with compiz to make the effects ? | 22:49 |
| Dr_Willis | I saw a Linux Disrto/Live-CD once that when you booted it on one pc.. you could then netboot other pcs on the lan :) install to several pcs from One pc/cd/server | 22:49 |
| OerHeks | Hyperbyte, logout, change language, log back in | 22:50 |
| iceroot | devtekalpha: i would recommend just read pxe for something new to learn, the easiest way is the usb-method but pxe is nice too | 22:50 |

| Shambat | if I have two default routes, how do I delete just one of them? | 22:51 |
| ActionParsnip | caycep: no, they will only use drive space | 22:51 |
| iceroot | Shambat: sudo route del routename | 22:51 |
| Costeelation | hi guys i have a dude... i can configure the touchpad zoom? | 22:52 |
| Costeelation | how? | 22:52 |
| Shambat | iceroot, I tried that, and it deleted the "wrong" default gw | 22:52 |
| iceroot | Shambat: sudo route del gw foobar | 22:52 |
| iceroot | Shambat: where foobar is the route | 22:52 |

| Guest46807 | hi, how can I remove xfce4 + config files via apt-get? | 23:10 |
| akiva | what is the internet anyways? Is it just a protocol in which computers talk to eachother directly, or is there some central server that everything has to go through? | 23:12 |

| andrewh192 | ok thanx devtekalpha | 23:12 |
