| FenrirReturns | I'm having a sound issue. I login to a vt and if I do a startx, no sound, but if I do a sudo start lightdm and then login to my window manager I have sound. Xfce4-mixer reveals that doing a startx gives me a dummy device only. Google-fu seems to only turn up people who have misconf'd alsa-base.confs. Any ideas? | 00:03 |
| bonny | genii-around: How do i ping the ip | 00:03 |
| FenrirReturns | bonny: ping -c4 <insert your ipaddress to ping here> Will let you try to ping with 4 packets | 00:04 |
| genii-around | bonny: As FenrirReturns indicates. Use the Terminal to type the commands into. | 00:05 |
| bonny | genii-around: so i type ping -c4 5.20.165.49:25565 | 00:06 |
| genii-around | bonny: Not the :25565 part | 00:06 |
| bonny | ok | 00:06 |
| bonny | says host unreachable | 00:07 |
| bonny | genii-around: Also i am able to connect from windows but not on ubuntu | 00:07 |
| bonny | genii-around: I have haguichi installed will that affect it? | 00:07 |
| genii-around | bonny: Possibly | 00:08 |

| bonny | genii-around: How can i delete every single piece of haguichi evidence? | 00:08 |
| genii-around | bonny: How did you originally install it? | 00:08 |
| bonny | genii-around: I added the ppa and sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get install haguichi | 00:09 |
| genii-around | bonny: So you should be able then to do: sudo apt-get remove --purge haguichi | 00:09 |
| bonny | genii-around: Ok | 00:10 |
| HeavyKevy | Anyone know why my second display is going all white with "seperate X Screen" selected? | 00:10 |
| bonny | genii-around: Ok ive done it | 00:11 |
| bonny | genii-around: I am still not able to connect what should I do? | 00:13 |
| genii-around | bonny: You may need a reboot for it to stop running it entirely, not sure. But to try the same ping command as before, etc | 00:13 |
| genii-around | work, afk | 00:13 |
| bonny | genni-around: Ok | 00:13 |

| warcrash | Hi everyone | 01:42 |
| warcrash | I am having some problems sharing a printer from Ubuntu Linux into the network | 01:43 |
| warcrash | other Linux systems can access it but windows systems can not | 01:43 |
| warcrash | someone have an idea how I can solve this? | 01:43 |
| ZuLLy | warcrash: samba | 01:43 |
| Guest54623 | can some one help me please | 01:44 |
| ActionParsnip | warcrash: did you right click the printer and select sharing? | 01:44 |
| FenrirReturns | Guest54623: For firefox try sudo apt-get install totem-mozilla | 01:44 |
| wowstargate | warcrash ....https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers | 01:45 |
| warcrash | ActionParsnip: yes i did, the printer is shared, other linux systems can access it and print remotely, only windows systems can not access the printer | 01:45 |
| FenrirReturns | wowstargate: Is there something wrong with your current driver? | 01:45 |
| wowstargate | FenriReturns...yes it only downloads at 500k | 01:46 |
| TheVinci | Ok, so let's say I'm installing xbmc on my computer, and I want to use xbmc remote from android. I'm connected to a router THROUGH ANOTHER router, will this mess me up? | 01:46 |
| FenrirReturns | wowstargate: This thread seems to get link to an ALX driver: http://askubuntu.com/questions/105607/how-do-i-get-an-atheros-ar8131-ethernet-card-working | 01:46 |
| TheVinci | Ie. Android connected to wifi through router 1 and pc connected to router 1 through router 2 | 01:47 |
| FenrirReturns | wowstargate: But you may wish to do a sudo apt-get install ethtool and use ethtool to ensure the speed/duplex is set right | 01:47 |
| wowstargate | yes i tried that and it errored out | 01:47 |
| wowstargate | ok | 01:47 |
| wowstargate | lemme check | 01:47 |
| Guest54623 | i have it install in my applications | 01:47 |
| Guest54623 | in my computer it already install totem-mozilla | 01:48 |
| n3w | Guys how long does the update manager take to "update cache" ? | 01:49 |
| jeffrey__ | anyone use pulse audio eq? | 01:49 |
| FenrirReturns | Guest54623: Check your extensions/add-ons in firefox to make sure you see it | 01:49 |
| n3w | Mine seems to kinda hang | 01:49 |
| djshotglass | i just lost power duing an apt-get upgrad | 01:49 |
| djshotglass | how boned am i? | 01:49 |
| ActionParsnip | warcrash: if you run: smbtree on the server, can you see the printer? | 01:49 |
| genii-around | djshotglass: Was it still only downloading or did it get to where it was actually installing stuff when it crapped out? | 01:51 |
| n3w | The update manager window pops up a "updateing cache --- waiting" which isn't doing anything for a VERY long time | 01:51 |
| n3w | I changed the servers too ... | 01:51 |
| Guest54623 | before was Disable and now i had put it enable you think this is it? | 01:52 |
| john_rambo | Instead of the mouse pointer I see a cross | 01:52 |
| john_rambo | window borders minimize maximize close have vanished | 01:52 |
| genii-around | djshotglass: Does it boot? | 01:53 |
| john_rambo | I am running Xubuntu | 01:53 |
| warcrash | ActionParsnip: nope, the printer do not show up on smbtree | 01:53 |
| burnthispage | Guest54623 which website are you going to watch? | 01:53 |
| djshotglass | must have been just downloading | 01:54 |
| djshotglass | dpkg --configure -a fixed | 01:54 |
| IllegalOpcode | that would do it | 01:54 |
| n3w | sudo gedit /etc/apt/apt.confsudo gedit /etc/apt/apt.confsudo gedit /etc/apt/apt.confsudo gedit /etc/apt/apt.confsudo gedit /etc/apt/apt.confsudo gedit /etc/apt/apt.confsudo gedit /etc/apt/apt.confsn!p3r.1 | 01:55 |
| wowstargate | FenriReturns...ok i installed ethtool and it says it is running at 1000Mbit | 01:55 |
| IllegalOpcode | really | 01:55 |
| ActionParsnip | n3w: gksudo for gedit, not sudo | 01:55 |
| sambagirl | even i knew that one actionparsnip | 01:56 |
| n3w | ActionParsnip: Sorry, those weren't for you, ubuntu hanged and acted terribly. I'm gonna reboot | 01:56 |
| n3w | That one I had copied to the clipboard... | 01:57 |
| n3w | c ya | 01:57 |
| wowstargate | this is what i got from ethtool......http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1122592/ | 01:58 |
| IllegalOpcode | you can try noapic and see if that helps | 02:01 |
| FenrirReturns | wowstargate: Try something like sudo ethtool eth0 -s 1000 full | 02:01 |
| IllegalOpcode | opps | 02:01 |
| wowstargate | ok | 02:01 |
| wowstargate | ethtool: bad command line argument(s) | 02:02 |
| wowstargate | For more information run ethtool -h | 02:02 |
| FenrirReturns | wowstargate: oops, give sudo ethtool eth0 speed 1000 duplex full a try | 02:03 |
| wowstargate | ok | 02:03 |
| wowstargate | same error | 02:04 |
| FenrirReturns | wowstargate: Hm.. I'm not sure, thats what I remember the command line syntax being | 02:05 |
| wowstargate | there is -l -L -p -w | 02:05 |
| wowstargate | accoring to hrlp | 02:05 |
| wowstargate | help* | 02:05 |

| xcervo | hello guys can som2 help me how to view channels on irssi? | 02:11 |
| xcervo | som1* | 02:11 |
| warcrash | thank you everyone, now i can share the printer with windows systems, i think windows 7 have support for ipp protocol | 02:11 |
| wowstargate | and of course my driver cd only has Windblowz drivers on it...go figure | 02:12 |
| warcrash | so i tried sharing it with CUPS only, but seems really need samba to access it from windows | 02:12 |
| djshotglass | does linux have anyting like http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/18/microsofts-virtual-wifi-will-make-windows-7-wireless-adapters-d/ | 02:22 |
| ActionParsnip | warcrash: tbh I had an issue with it too, so I just have a folder watched for files, it then prints them with lpr then deletes the file | 02:22 |
| nicktendopefish6 | Anyone know where milkytracker stores its config files? I kinda messed it up :P | 02:24 |
| ActionParsnip | nicktendopefish6: maybe: sudo updatedb; locate milkytracker will help | 02:26 |
| nicktendopefish6 | Thank you, i'll give that a shot now. | 02:26 |
| warcrash | ActionParsnip: hum... I see, here is working fine for now, now configuring lamp, btw do you know some good erp and crm system to use in a factory? | 02:26 |
| === HyperNerdV2 is now known as FoughtTheSeether | ||
| warcrash | I was going for SugarCRM but that may be a little trouble here since most of the employee are chinese and they are not used to so complex systems | 02:28 |
| EricBlade | anyone know if there's a package hiding in this monstrous list somewhere to install an arm ver of glib for cross compilations? | 02:30 |
| nicktendopefish6 | Woa, wine has definitely gotten better since i last used it :P | 02:32 |

| ActionParsnip | warcrash: no, sorry | 02:36 |
| ActionParsnip | nicktendopefish6: indeed | 02:36 |
| nicktendopefish6 | Haha, some of my ancient Game Maker trash doesn't want to run at 60fps, and music has completely wrong timing. | 02:38 |
| JordanK | What is an iso making program for ubuntuuuuu | 02:38 |
| theadmin | JordanK: Any disc burner. Or genisoimage if you want to go CLI. | 02:39 |
| theadmin | JordanK: Brasero (preinstalled in Ubuntu since forever) can make ISOs as well. | 02:40 |
| JordanK | Oh. Great. Thanks :) | 02:40 |
| nicktendopefish6 | It seems ever since i went to Ubuntu 12.04, my sound sometimes gets crackly :\ | 02:41 |
| === LadyGaga is now known as oscailt | ||
| nicktendopefish6 | Gets annoying when i'm playing music/games, but doesn't affect all programs. | 02:42 |
| L3top | Where is $PATH set in ubuntu? | 02:42 |
| nicktendopefish6 | Strangely, Mumble is not affected. | 02:42 |
| theadmin | L3top: I would assume /etc/environment | 02:43 |
| L3top | ty theadmin | 02:43 |
| theadmin | L3top: Not too sure though. | 02:43 |
| nicktendopefish6 | Forgot how to change name in XChat, its been a while :P | 02:43 |
| === nicktendopefish6 is now known as Nicktendo64 | ||
| theadmin | nicktendopefish6: Normally, /nick new_nickname | 02:45 |
| L3top | should be different for root though theadmin... however yes... that file is there and is correct for users | 02:45 |
| Nicktendo64 | Nvm :L | 02:45 |
| theadmin | L3top: Well, normally nobody logs in as root on Ubuntu anyway, therefore I can't know if root gets the same environment or not. | 02:45 |
| L3top | sudo -s for instance, has its own pathing theadmin. | 02:47 |
| ideaman | Anyone running 12.04 desktop with dual screens on a Sapphire Radeon HD 7770? I can't get it to work.... | 02:47 |
| theadmin | L3top: Yeah but... You normally use "sudo -i". | 02:47 |
| theadmin | L3top: (which preserves the environment) | 02:47 |
| L3top | theadmin: and the scripts which run at startup use the equivelant of sudo su. It is the startup scripting environment I am concerned about atm | 02:48 |
| ActionParsnip | !ati | ideaman | 02:48 |
| ubottu | ideaman: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 02:48 |
| theadmin | L3top: Oh, just set your path at the beginning of the script, or use full paths | 02:48 |
| ideaman | ahh, thanks | 02:48 |
| ideaman | will check it out | 02:49 |
| l00pback_ | I just installed Ubuntu 12.04 on my HP pavilion laptop. | 02:49 |
| L3top | theadmin: this is a oneoff problem with a single user case from an alternate installer I built... and cannot figure for the life of me how his has changed. I wanted to see the env call... to begin debugging. | 02:49 |
| theadmin | l00pback_: Congratulations. Any problems? | 02:49 |
| l00pback_ | The keyboard isn't working, at all | 02:49 |
| [snake] | I hate to ask, but can anyone write a bash script for me maybe? you don't have to make any promises. | 02:50 |
| L3top | echoing $PATH does not produce anything in sbin theadmin. Very odd. | 02:50 |
| ActionParsnip | l00pback_: what model pavillion is it? | 02:50 |
| theadmin | [snake]: I can try. | 02:50 |
| Nicktendo64 | Anyone know if the linux version of XChat will support FLAC? | 02:50 |
| Nicktendo64 | Or just WAV. | 02:50 |
| l00pback_ | an external USB keyboard works though. And ActionParsnip, it's a g6 | 02:50 |
| theadmin | Nicktendo64: Err, FLAC? Audio format?... I don't really see why would it -- err... It's a chat thing, not a media player | 02:51 |
| JohnnyP | I just installed 12.04 x64 on a Dell Vostro 1700. Intel Dual Core 2.0GHz, 4GB RAM and everything is really laggy. I've tried to update the nVidia drivers as per some google searches, but no luck. Doesn't seem to get any better. Any other thoughts? | 02:51 |
| [snake] | theadmin, ok, I need to take one line of text from 'file a' and add it to the end of the corresponding line in 'fileb' | 02:51 |
| [snake] | file b* | 02:51 |
| Nicktendo64 | theadmin: its for notification sounds. | 02:51 |
| theadmin | [snake]: No problems... But mind if I do it in Perl? Will take me much less time >.< | 02:52 |
| [snake] | theadmin, sure! :) | 02:52 |
| ActionParsnip | l00pback_: do you dual boot the system? | 02:52 |
| l00pback_ | ActionParsnip: no, I don't. | 02:52 |
| ActionParsnip | l00pback_: if you run: xev and press the inbuilt keyboard, does it generate events? | 02:54 |
| nydel | hello all | 02:54 |

| JohnnyP | maybe try the 32bit instead of the 64bit? | 02:55 |
| l00pback_ | ActionParsnip: Yeah, it says Ubuntu 12.04 has experienced an internal error. | 02:55 |
| nydel | JohnnyP: what's the problem? | 02:55 |
| JohnnyP | I'll repost | 02:56 |

| nydel | JohnnyP: just curious, did you use wubi? | 02:57 |

| Nicktendo64 | JohnnyP: I have an NVidia, ubuntu automaticly used the official drivers for me. | 02:57 |
| === w_ is now known as Guest73455 | ||
| JohnnyP | •Nicktendo64• mine also used the official and I switched to the 302.19(???) | 02:57 |
| JohnnyP | •nydel• not sure what wubi is | 02:58 |
| nydel | Nicktendo64: i hear a lot of problems with nvidia.. but i get the feeling they're mostly from people who are new to linux | 02:58 |
| theadmin | [snake]: Should do the trick: http://sprunge.us/aALE | 02:58 |
| nydel | JohnnyP: it's the install application for ubuntu that runs from windows | 02:58 |
| JohnnyP | nydel, probably. I've used Linux before, but it's been a long time | 02:58 |
| JordanK | Is there a keyboard shortcut for ubuntu to minimize all open windows? Like windows has "windows key + | 02:58 |
| JordanK | d | 02:58 |
| JohnnyP | nydel, no...I did a clean install to a fresh partition | 02:58 |
| nydel | JohnnyP: it's all good, i just came back to linux about a year or so ago. i used wubi to install ubuntu, on a whim, & i just never booted back into windows! | 02:59 |
| theadmin | [snake]: (I HOPE -- just test it on something unimportant first, please) | 02:59 |
| nydel | JohnnyP: okay & you're just getting general lag when running desktop applications? or are you doing something more graphics-intense | 02:59 |
| JohnnyP | nydel, some work software will only work with Winblows, but hoping to make Wine work | 02:59 |
| JohnnyP | nydel, just even opening the file manager and even FireFox | 03:00 |
| Nicktendo64 | nydel, The NVidia drivers are fine for me, its just sound thats bugging me. | 03:00 |
| JohnnyP | nydel, mouse moves around fine. I even went in a logged into my wife's facebook page and started one of her flash games | 03:01 |
| JohnnyP | it was horrible | 03:01 |
| nydel | Nicktendo64: what is your sound hardware? | 03:01 |
| JohnnyP | I want to rid of Winblows for sure, but if I'm getting lag on my laptop, I can't have it | 03:02 |
| Nicktendo64 | nydel: Some standard intergrated realtek hda chip, i'm using USB headphones BTW. | 03:02 |
| L3top | JohnnyP: lspci -nn | grep VGA | 03:02 |
| unknown45682 | hi | 03:02 |
| nydel | what L3top said. or drop the grep if you can't get a result | 03:03 |
| JohnnyP | •L3top• what does that do? | 03:03 |
| JordanK | Is there a keyboard shortcut to minimize all windows? | 03:03 |
| Mosene | HelloComputer15, I have a quick question if someone can help... | 03:03 |
| L3top | It tells me the PCIID of your nvidia card JohnnyP. | 03:03 |
| nydel | JordanK: super+d i think? | 03:03 |
| nydel | no that's not right | 03:03 |
| unknown45682 | I just installed torchat and after i close it i see tor is still running. i tried to end process but then it starts again after ending. then i try kill process and it starts up again. | 03:03 |
| Mosene | lol, script "hello" | 03:03 |
| JohnnyP | crap....I need to get back into that.. | 03:03 |
| nydel | JordanK: it's not minimize all but rather show desktop | 03:03 |
| Nicktendo64 | Oh, is there a way to stop ubuntu showing up search when i hit alt? | 03:04 |
| Nicktendo64 | It messes up some games. | 03:04 |
| nydel | JordanK: you can see the shortcuts in system -> keyboard | 03:04 |
| JohnnyP | L3top, I'm going to have to get back to you on that.... | 03:04 |
| theadmin | Nicktendo64: It's supposed to show search when you hit Super, not Alt. I think you have the wrong layout selected :P | 03:04 |
| JordanK | nydel, Ok, I'll have a look. That's the one feature I like in windows more :P | 03:04 |
| nydel | Nicktendo64: you can do that in system -> keyboard, or if you can't you could use compiz config | 03:05 |
| L3top | JohnnyP: you just need to open a terminal. You should close all windows other than chat and this terminal. | 03:05 |

| Linux_User | Mosene its in Gparted | 03:11 |

| ActionParsnip | TopSpinSL: could ask in #mysql maybe there is something amiss | 03:11 |
| [snake] | theadmin, thanks :) | 03:11 |
| Mosene | Linux_User: Thats a program if I remember correctly? | 03:12 |
| Linux_User | Mosene yes it is. sudo apt-get install gparted =) | 03:12 |
| Nicktendo64 | Ok, well XChat hates FLAC. | 03:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Nicktendo64: do you mean for audio alerts? | 03:13 |
| Nicktendo64 | yes | 03:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Nicktendo64: doesn't it use notify-osd ? | 03:13 |
| Nicktendo64 | I don't know :P | 03:14 |
| Mosene | Linux_User: I have Windows on my home pc, becouse i`m not the only user, And I whant to install ubuntu on my laptop, Gparted exists on windows too? | 03:14 |
| Linux_User | Mosene for windows just right click on the thumbstick and format as FAT. what size is the disk? | 03:14 |
| Mosene | the USB is 16 GB | 03:15 |
| nguyenduy | where should i join to discuss about facebook oauth? Is there anyone knows? I'm a newbie | 03:15 |
| nguyenduy | helllo | 03:15 |

| mi3 | nguyenduy: lol | 03:15 |
| nguyenduy | ?? | 03:16 |
| Linux_User | Mosene ah thats why. FAT 32 will have to be used. as for writing the .iso to the USB. i use either Unetbootin or YUMI | 03:16 |
| ActionParsnip | nguyenduy: seems to be a ruby thing | 03:16 |
| kamilo | @nguyenduy ._. | 03:16 |

| Linux_User | Mosene it should be in the repo's. I'm not sure. im on my debian box ATM | 03:18 |

| ActionParsnip | http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/ if you don't have windows handy | 03:20 |
| Mosene | Linux_User: by the way did u managed to use a pppoe internet connection on debian? | 03:20 |
| Linux_User | Mosene I don't have that type of connection. I just have wireless/Ethernet | 03:21 |
| ns_nazri | you mean steam is game | 03:21 |
| Linux_User | no the steam client from Valve. half-life2 left for dead | 03:22 |
| ActionParsnip | ns_nazri: who mentioned steam? | 03:22 |
| Linux_User | Guilty | 03:22 |
| ActionParsnip | ns_nazri: oh i see it now :D | 03:22 |
| SnapSnap | When I make Youtube videos fullscreen it's full of yellow dots. Anyone else had this bug? | 03:22 |
| ActionParsnip | Linux_User: i'll believe it when I see it, lots of companies have said they will make linux clients then don't | 03:23 |
| ns_nazri | yes i do this clien | 03:23 |
| Linux_User | just trying to see how many people are excited about it. the people on #debian didn't really care at all | 03:23 |
| ActionParsnip | SnapSnap: what browsers have you tried? | 03:23 |
| OerHeks | SnapSnap, change youtube resolution to 480p or higher | 03:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Linux_User: i'm not holding my breath | 03:23 |
| theadmin | Linux_User: It's offtopic here. Also as a user of an ATI GPU, I'm not excited :/ | 03:23 |
| Linux_User | http://blogs.valvesoftware.com/linux/ | 03:23 |
| ns_nazri | i cannot sure but steam active in windows | 03:23 |
| skater | Hello | 03:24 |
| ns_nazri | hello to | 03:24 |
| skater | I am trying to use chmod and it doesn't appear to be working. can anyone help a newbie | 03:25 |
| Linux_User | skater what are you trying to modify? | 03:25 |
| ns_nazri | use chmod 770 or 700 | 03:25 |
| skater | Path "/var/www/app/etc" must be writable. Path "/var/www/var" must be writable. Path "/var/www/media" must be writable. | 03:25 |
| SnapSnap | ActionParsnip: Google Chrome and Firefox | 03:26 |
| ActionParsnip | ns_nazri: sudo chmod +w /var/www/app/etc | 03:26 |
| SnapSnap | OerHeks: Doesn't help | 03:26 |
| ActionParsnip | skater: ^ | 03:26 |
| ActionParsnip | skater: chmod +w /var/www/media | 03:26 |
| skater | Ok I will try it thanks | 03:27 |
| OerHeks | SnapSnap, i use no flashplugin, i use http://www.youtube.com/html5 | 03:27 |
| OerHeks | but that doesn't work on other flash sites | 03:27 |
| ActionParsnip | SnapSnap: can you pastebin the output of: lsb_release -a; uname -a; dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark' | 03:28 |
| JohnnyP | •L3top• I'm running it from the CD since my HDD doesn't want to boot the install. But it came back with '01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [300]: NVIDIA Corporation G84 [GeForce 8600M GT] [10de:0407] (rev a1)" | 03:28 |
| SnapSnap | OerHeks: I switched to HTML5. No difference. | 03:29 |
| ActionParsnip | JohnnyP: try the boot option: nouveau.blacklist=1 | 03:29 |
| aLusion | Can anyone recommend me a good guide on securing my network with Ubuntu? | 03:29 |
| ActionParsnip | SnapSnap: use http://pastie.org or similar | 03:29 |
| ns_nazri | download adobe flash in www.softpedia.com and click manu linux | 03:29 |
| ActionParsnip | ns_nazri: why, it's in the repos. You don't need any websites at all | 03:30 |
| JohnnyP | •ActionParsnip• I don't know how to do that. Right now it looks as if I need to do another install, so it could be a while | 03:30 |
| h00k | So, I'm trying to manually run netconsole on this machine by adding it to /etc/modules, and adding my netconsole config in /etc/modprobe.d/netconsole, however it seems to be completely not attempting to load netconsole on occasion. I haven't had it load netconsole the last 4 boots. I can manually load netconsole and have it grab the config in /etc/modprobe.d/, though. | 03:30 |
| Linux_User | SnapSnap Adobe has discontinued Flash plugin for linux. the only game in town is Chrome with the Pepper API | 03:30 |
| skater | I have used the command for all 3 directories but still nothing | 03:30 |
| ActionParsnip | JohnnyP: copy the command I gave and press CTRL+ALT+T, paste the command in the terminal and hit ENTER | 03:30 |
| SnapSnap | ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/u16A1qss | 03:31 |
| ActionParsnip | JohnnyP: copy the output and go to http://pastie.org Paste it there and hit paste. When the page changes, copy the new address in the address bar and paste here as an update | 03:31 |
| ActionParsnip | JohnnyP: sorry | 03:31 |
| ActionParsnip | !bootoption | JohnnyP | 03:31 |
| ubottu | JohnnyP: For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions See also !nomodeset. | 03:31 |
| L3top | JohnnyP: that should be fine with nvidia-current. How did you install the nvidia driver? | 03:31 |
| ActionParsnip | SnapSnap: try: sudo apt-get --purge remove flashplugin-installer | 03:32 |
| ActionParsnip | SnapSnap: enable the partner repo and install adobe-flashplugin | 03:32 |
| JohnnyP | •ActionParsnip• so 'bootoption: nouveau.blacklist=1'? | 03:32 |
| ActionParsnip | JohnnyP: yeah crossed wires in my brain | 03:32 |
| ActionParsnip | !nomodeset | JohnnyP | 03:32 |
| ubottu | JohnnyP: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 03:32 |
| h00k | I'm having an updated 12.04 ignore 'netconsole' that I have in /etc/modules, does any one have protips as to what may help me? | 03:32 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | I have an rsync process that won't respond to sudo kill -9 <PID>, is there any other way that I can get rid of it? | 03:32 |
| SnapSnap | ActionParsnip: What do you mean by "enable the partner repo"? | 03:32 |
| ns_nazri | skater. i think your script problem | 03:32 |
| ActionParsnip | JohnnyP: just use the nouveau.blacklist=1 boot option instead, its set in the same place in the same way | 03:33 |
| rgenito | herro everyone | 03:33 |
| theadmin | DaDaDOSPrompt: Try killing it with -SEGV instead. May help. | 03:33 |
| ActionParsnip | SnapSnap: you can enable and disable sources in software centre | 03:33 |
| JohnnyP | •L3top• used this sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates | 03:33 |
| JohnnyP | sudo apt-get update | 03:33 |
| JohnnyP | sudo apt-get install nvidia-current | 03:33 |
| JohnnyP | it installed 302.17 or something along those lines | 03:34 |
| h00k | if /etc/modules is failing to load a module automatically, is it an issue with the module (netconsole), or the kernel itself? | 03:34 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | no | 03:34 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | I fear that didn't work | 03:34 |
| skater | is there a gui tool that i can use for this as I am not very good with cmd line | 03:34 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | my problem is that my rsync died at some point (probably due to crappy Western Digital hard disk behaviors) and I seem to have somehow ended up with two rsyncs. One is <defunct> and I think that's a child process of the process that won't die. that second process is owned by init though, so I may not be able to kill it. | 03:35 |
| theadmin | h00k: Try "sudo modprobe netconsole", does it load? | 03:35 |
| L3top | JohnnyP: I don't know why you chose to install from xswat... but that should ALSO be working. | 03:35 |
| h00k | theadmin: it loads, but it's not grabbing it's options I want from /etc/modprobe.d/netconsole if I load it that way. | 03:35 |
| JohnnyP | •L3top• it was part of a guide. When it booted, it also showed a icon of a PCI card and I clicked that and tried some of those options... | 03:36 |
| theadmin | h00k: Hm... I'm not too familiar with how modules work really, sorry | 03:36 |
| L3top | DaDaDOSPrompt: doesnt kill -9 want a process name? Should just be sudo kill <PID> | 03:36 |
| JohnnyP | •L3top• all 3 options had the same result. Just really over slow. | 03:36 |
| h00k | theadmin: thanks anyway, I'll keep checking. I'm trying to decide if it's a kernel issue or with netconsole itself | 03:36 |
| smart | hello everyone i'm knew on this experience | 03:37 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | l3top, yes, I have used the PIDs | 03:37 |
| Linux_User | JohnnyP the best way to install nvidia drivers is the script provided by nvidia. and you get the absolute newest drivers to boot | 03:37 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | they're not going away | 03:37 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | of course, I'm starting to think that something is quite wrong here, in any case | 03:37 |
| SnapSnap | ActionParsnip: I see the sources but how do I "enable the partner repo". I don't quite understand what you're saying | 03:37 |
| L3top | DaDaDOSPrompt: I am saying that the -9 switch wants a NAME not ID... thats all | 03:37 |
| rgenito | does anyone know how to set DNS servers upon boot? | 03:38 |
| L3top | DaDaDOSPrompt: once you kill it, is it respawning with a new PID? | 03:38 |
| rgenito | as in.. i dont want to use the DNS servers given to me by the gateway :D | 03:38 |
| theadmin | L3top: Uh, no. "kill" requires a PID. "killall" requires a process name, indeed. Nothing to do with -9 or anything. | 03:38 |
| L3top | ty theadmin... was originally a question. | 03:38 |
| ActionParsnip | SnapSnap: might be under one of the other tabs in additional sources | 03:38 |
| JohnnyP | •Linux_User• what script? The ones I just posted should have been the newest. Looks as if they posted those about 3 weeks ago | 03:39 |
| ActionParsnip | SnapSnap: if you want to do it CLI style you can simply uncomment the deb lines for the partner repo in /etc/apt/sources.list | 03:39 |
| SnapSnap | ActionParsnip:Canonical Partners. Gotcha | 03:39 |
| L3top | ignore me DaDaDOSPrompt. I never kill things. I was mistaken. | 03:39 |
| ActionParsnip | SnapSnap: that's it | 03:39 |
| l00pback_ | Hey I have a big problem in my hp pavilion laptop I installed 12.04 and I can't use my keyboard now! ...even on the bios | 03:40 |
| theadmin | l00pback_: Eh, if it doesn't work in the BIOS it's not an Ubuntu issue. | 03:40 |
| l00pback_ | I need a way to enable the inbuilt keyboard | 03:40 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | well, something is amiss. can't restart firefox, can't unmount my disks | 03:40 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | looks like my kernel may have bombed at some point :[] | 03:40 |
| ns_nazri | bios isu | 03:40 |
| === clouder_ is now known as clouder`grr | ||
| JohnnyP | going to try a fresh install again... | 03:41 |
| ns_nazri | u must update bios | 03:41 |
| l00pback_ | theadmin: The problem started after I installed ubuntu | 03:41 |
| theadmin | DaDaDOSPrompt: Ouch, that sounds bad, might be something to do with init or indeed the kernel. | 03:41 |
| SnapSnap | ActionParsnip: Weird error message: "Package adobe-flashplugin is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'adobe-flashplugin' has no installation candidate" | 03:41 |
| Linux_User | JohnnyP I didn't see any of your previous posts. but if you download the driver from nvidia.com and follow the instructions. its not too hard. you will be set. it does all the hard work for you | 03:41 |
| theadmin | l00pback_: So? Coincidence. You INSTALLED it, meaning you managed to type in the username DURING the installation, right? Meaning keyboard worked in the Ubuntu livecd before. Meaning it's not an Ubuntu problem. Also, Ubuntu has no effect on the BIOS anyway. | 03:42 |
| jaxdahl | i installed ubuntu-desktop with --no-install-recommends, how do i install the recommended packages now? | 03:42 |
| ns_nazri | 100pback, i think try update your bios | 03:42 |
| JohnnyP | •Linux_User• I'll repost my original | 03:42 |
| JohnnyP | I just installed 12.04 x64 on a Dell Vostro 1700. Intel Dual Core 2.0GHz, 4GB RAM and everything is really laggy. I've tried to update the nVidia drivers as per some google searches, but no luck. Doesn't seem to get any better. Any other thoughts? | 03:42 |
| l00pback_ | ns_nazri: It is the latest version | 03:42 |
| ns_nazri | or chance os | 03:43 |
| theadmin | jaxdahl: sudo apt-get --reinstall --whatever-the-flag-for-recommends-is install ubuntu-desktop | 03:43 |
| OerHeks | l00pback_, keyboard shouldn't be affected by any OS. no ubuntu issue, try to reset laptop, push power 10 sec without battery and boot again | 03:43 |
| smart | i'll see you later everyone this kind of knew experience is going to be awesonnn but it would be better including twitter to this | 03:43 |
| l00pback_ | OerHeks: Ok will try | 03:43 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1122693/ is this a kernel error message? | 03:44 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | seems like it | 03:44 |
| theadmin | DaDaDOSPrompt: It's a panic. | 03:45 |
| theadmin | DaDaDOSPrompt: Basically now you have to do a hard reset, nothing will really help except from that | 03:45 |
| jaxdahl | when i hit alt in the ubuntu desktop, i get "Error: Hud service not connected" | 03:45 |
| theadmin | s/except/apart/ | 03:45 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | ok | 03:45 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | shit me, a panic | 03:45 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | that ain't good | 03:45 |
| jaxdahl | this is ubuntu 12.04 in a vmware install if that matters | 03:45 |
| FloodBot1 | DaDaDOSPrompt: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:45 |
| h00k | DaDaDOSPrompt: also, please keep the lanaguage appropriate | 03:45 |
| ActionParsnip | jaxdahl: are you fuly updated? | 03:46 |
| jaxdahl | ActionParsnip i did an apt-get update/upgrade if that is what you are asking | 03:46 |
| jaxdahl | this was a server install at first, so i may be missing some packages i should have installed | 03:46 |
| ActionParsnip | jaxdahl: is it the same if you make a fresh ubuntu user? | 03:46 |
| ActionParsnip | jaxdahl: why install server if you want a desktop OS? | 03:46 |
| jaxdahl | i had the server ISO downloaded already and was lazy | 03:47 |
| jaxdahl | is there something else i should have installed besides ubuntu-desktop? i'll try making a new user | 03:47 |
| theadmin | jaxdahl: A display manager, such as lightdm... Not sure if ubuntu-desktop includes that | 03:48 |
| ActionParsnip | jaxdahl: do you have indicator-appmenu installed? | 03:49 |
| ActionParsnip | jaxdahl: also install unity-2d-shell | 03:51 |
| SnapSnap | ActionParsnip: Weird error message: "Package adobe-flashplugin is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'adobe-flashplugin' has no installation candidate" | 03:51 |
| ActionParsnip | jaxdahl: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1122705/ | 03:52 |
| jaxdahl | installing indicator-appmenu fixed it | 03:52 |
| jaxdahl | but still feels like i'm missing stuff | 03:53 |
| ActionParsnip | jaxdahl: because you should use the desktop ISO ideally | 03:54 |
| ActionParsnip | SnapSnap: did you run: sudo apt-get update first | 03:54 |
| Justin___ | My wireless wont work running Ubuntu, even though I installed the drivers it said it needed to install. | 03:55 |
| l00pback_ | I installed windblows, keyboard working now. | 03:55 |
| l00pback_ | This is weird. | 03:55 |
| jaxdahl | ActionParsnip, surely there is some base package i can install to get the default desktop stuff in without downloading an ISO and reinstalling | 03:55 |
| ns_nazri | windblows how u find | 03:56 |
| Nicktendo64 | Hello, is it a bad idea to remove PulseAudio? | 03:58 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | Nicktendo64, I can't recommend it on a Ubuntu system | 03:58 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | is it giving you trouble? | 03:58 |
| Nicktendo64 | Yes | 03:58 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | you have no sound at the moment? | 03:58 |
| theadmin | Nicktendo64: Yes, because GNOME since version 3 depends on it, and therefore, you'll pretty much ruin the whole desktop. If you were running KDE or somesuch it may have been acceptable though. | 03:58 |
| Nicktendo64 | Not quite | 03:58 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | what's it doing to you? | 03:59 |
| CelticTurnip | hey all - I've been searching for a while and I can't seem to find what I want, I'm checking out Ubuntu server for a project and I want to get rid of the high res terminal and force it to 80x24 - I edited grub.cfg and it started up correctly then jumped to a higher res later... anyway to turn this behaviour off? | 03:59 |
| Nicktendo64 | Sound runs ok for a few minutes, then it gets really crackly. | 03:59 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | hmm | 03:59 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | are you watching top or htop when that happens? | 04:00 |
| Nicktendo64 | I read that PulseAudio causes it sometimes | 04:00 |
| Nicktendo64 | and no | 04:00 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | might be worthwhile to see whether or not a process is getting live on the CPU, unless pulseaudio is, indeed, that process | 04:00 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | very possible | 04:00 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | hm | 04:00 |
| Nicktendo64 | it affects all sounds exept for Mumble | 04:00 |
| Nicktendo64 | including OS sounds. | 04:00 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | are you using a particular sound card? | 04:00 |
| SnapSnap | ActionParsnip: I ran enabled the parter repo, ran sudo apt-get update, then tried without running install adobe-flashplugin. Everything works fine now. | 04:00 |
| Nicktendo64 | Nope, just a standard realtek | 04:01 |
| Nicktendo64 | intergrated into the motherboard. | 04:01 |
| ActionParsnip | SnapSnap: flash is ok too? | 04:01 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | hmm | 04:01 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | are you going through any sort of extension cable? | 04:01 |
| SnapSnap | Looks like it | 04:01 |
| ActionParsnip | SnapSnap: nice | 04:01 |
| Nicktendo64 | I am however using a pair of USB headphones. | 04:01 |
| SnapSnap | ActionParsnip: Yep. Thanks for the help. | 04:01 |
| ActionParsnip | SnapSnap: np dude :). that package will install 64bit flash if you have 64bit OS too | 04:02 |
| Nicktendo64 | I noticed in audacity the output device is ALSA | 04:02 |
| ActionParsnip | jaxdahl: not sure but if you want a desktop OS I suggest the desktop ISO, or use the minimal ISO (20Mb) and install using the web :) | 04:02 |
| ActionParsnip | ns_nazri: see how I didn't use your softpedia page and got it fixed.... | 04:03 |
| Nicktendo64 | Hopefully i will get this audio problem fixed before steam for linux comes out. | 04:04 |
| Nicktendo64 | Could the problem be with ALSA, prehaps? | 04:05 |
| theadmin | Is there a way to install Ubuntu from an existing Linux setup? I'm too lazy to make a bootable USB :/ | 04:07 |
| Nicktendo64 | DaDaDOSPrompt: I ran grep "Codec:" /proc/asound/card*/codec* | 04:08 |
| ns_nazri | The ALSA library plugin 'jack' allows the ALSA library to play or capture via JACK (This should not be confused with the jackd output driver 'alsa', included in the jackd package, which allows the JACK daemon to play back via the ALSA library." Yeah -- how could anybody ever get those confused? | 04:08 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | woah | 04:08 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | what the heck | 04:08 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | what does that do, Nicktendo64 | 04:08 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | did it fix your issue? | 04:09 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | ah, clearly not | 04:09 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | just a grep | 04:09 |
| Nicktendo64 | DaDaDOSPrompt: should i use the ubuntu pastebin? | 04:09 |
| skater | ubuntu@ubuntu1:~$ sudo chmod +w /var/www/app/etc | 04:09 |
| skater | [sudo] password for ubuntu: | 04:09 |

| FloodBot1 | skater: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:09 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | yes | 04:09 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | also, those are some funky regular expressions | 04:09 |
| skater | any thoughts | 04:09 |
| theadmin | skater: Well, from any of that it seems it worked. | 04:09 |
| skater | Ok but when I try to complete the installation of the website "magento" it keeps telling me to do the same thing as if it's not working | 04:10 |
| theadmin | skater: If it didn't, though, make sure the owner/group of those files is the one that's trying to write there | 04:10 |
| Nicktendo64 | DaDaDOSPrompt: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1122719/ | 04:11 |
| Nicktendo64 | thats my console output | 04:11 |
| skater | there is only one owner which is me I assume :( | 04:11 |
| Nicktendo64 | apparently if it has ID in the name its not supported | 04:11 |
| Crustyeyelids | fixing wireless problems, anyone, anyone? | 04:11 |
| andrewh192 | Crustyeyelids: what sort of probs? | 04:12 |
| theadmin | skater: Well, what is the UID your webserver runs as? | 04:12 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | Nicktendo, the only "id" I find in this file is NVidia | 04:12 |
| theadmin | skater: Actually, dammit all, just: sudo chmod -R 777 /var/www/ # This isn't safe for production use, but it will do if it's just a playground. | 04:12 |
| Nicktendo64 | so my audio card is supported | 04:13 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | ah | 04:13 |
| Crustyeyelids | msg/ andrewh192 I can't get my wireless to toggle on | 04:13 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | perhaps there's some sort of Hz setting that needs to be tweaked in the pulseaudio daemon | 04:13 |
| Nicktendo64 | I'm not looking at the NVidia, i'm looking at the realtek | 04:13 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | that's your default source/sink? | 04:13 |
| Nicktendo64 | I googled my chip, some launchpad bugs were in the results | 04:14 |
| skater | hmmm I am a newbie so forgive me If I don't know how to answer that :( | 04:14 |
| andrewh192 | Crustyeyelids: you on a desktop or laptop? | 04:14 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | ah, crapola, then it may have unresolved issues | 04:14 |

| DaDaDOSPrompt | ooo | 04:15 |
| skater | :) thank you very much | 04:15 |
| Nicktendo64 | Damnit >.< | 04:15 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | well, do you want to step inside of the pulseaudio daemon? | 04:15 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | it has many features and an interactive CLI menu | 04:15 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | which ain't saying much, but it allows one to tweak many options | 04:15 |
| Nicktendo64 | Ok, i'll give that a shot. | 04:15 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | just be careful dicking with sources and sinks | 04:16 |
| Nicktendo64 | I'm a bit of a newb to linux too :$ | 04:16 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | or you'll mux the audio down a bad output and have no sound left | 04:16 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | ah, ok | 04:16 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | I wasn't sure what level of proficiency you're at | 04:16 |
| Nicktendo64 | Thats fine | 04:16 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | and frankly, how to even discuss such a thing | 04:16 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | are you comfortable trying to muddle through the daemon? | 04:16 |
| Nicktendo64 | I'll give it a shot. | 04:17 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | I'm a bit hesitant to mess with it on this machine since I've got rsyncs going and already lost one to a kernel panic | 04:17 |
| Nicktendo64 | i'm new to desktop linux, not so much server linux. | 04:17 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | aaah | 04:17 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | yeah, pulse is tricky | 04:17 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | the problem I see and have experienced the most is, yeah, somehow sending the audio signal on a cable headed to Pluto | 04:18 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | rather than, say, my speakers | 04:18 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | fixable though | 04:18 |
| Nicktendo64 | Hmm | 04:18 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | btw, the name of the program that I am thinking of is pacmd | 04:18 |
| Nicktendo64 | Something tells me, its more of an ALSA issue. | 04:20 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | could be | 04:20 |

| newbz | hi | 04:20 |
| newbz | iam new to ubuntu | 04:20 |
| theadmin | newbz: That's fine. If you have issues, ask. | 04:21 |
| ActionParsnip | newbz: everyone is new at some point | 04:21 |
| newbz | thanks admin | 04:21 |
| newbz | well my problem is, is it posibble to instal minidwep-gtk? i've google around no solution for me | 04:21 |
| theadmin | !find minidwep-gtk | 04:22 |
| ubottu | Package/file minidwep-gtk does not exist in precise | 04:22 |
| theadmin | First time I hear that name... What is that anyway, newbz? | 04:22 |
| newbz | some software to test wirelerel security | 04:23 |
| newbz | wireles* bad typo | 04:23 |
| ActionParsnip | newbz: http://dishingtech.blogspot.com.au/2012/05/download-install-minidwep-gtk-in.html | 04:24 |
| theadmin | Repeat: Is there a way to install Ubuntu from an existing Linux installation? | 04:25 |
| Nicktendo64 | DaDaDOSPrompt: should i try updating my alsa to the latest version? | 04:25 |
| ActionParsnip | newbz: are you using ubuntu, or is it backtrack? | 04:25 |
| boot_ | Oi | 04:26 |
| newbz | ubuntu | 04:26 |
| ActionParsnip | newbz: cool :) | 04:26 |
| newbz | unity | 04:26 |
| ActionParsnip | newbz: what do you think of Unity so far? | 04:26 |
| newbz | 12.04 not much change from 11 XD | 04:26 |
| rgenito | dude, wtf is up with ubuntu... | 04:26 |
| newbz | amazing | 04:26 |
| rgenito | i change /etc/network/interfaces to have eth0 as a static ip | 04:26 |
| ActionParsnip | rgenito: in what way, its an extremely complex piece of software | 04:26 |
| Nicktendo64 | unity is pretty good | 04:26 |
| newbz | but i like clasic gnome more i change to gnome XD | 04:27 |
| rgenito | ...and then on reboot, ubuntu changes the interfaces to eth3 and eth4. makes no sense. | 04:27 |
| rgenito | eth0 and eth1 are disregarded | 04:27 |
| ActionParsnip | rgenito: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1007285 | 04:27 |
| newbz | admin i've try that earlier no luck | 04:27 |
| rgenito | well for 1, i wanna know why the fk ubuntu is making my 1st and 2nd ethernet port "eth3" and "eth4" all of a sudden. that shit makes no sense. | 04:27 |
| rgenito | ty for the link | 04:27 |
| theadmin | rgenito: Please refrain from swearing in this channel, we're trying to be "family-friendly" whatever that is. | 04:28 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | Nicktendo64, I dunno | 04:28 |
| ActionParsnip | rgenito: its a udev hiccup | 04:28 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | might not necessarily hurt | 04:28 |
| rgenito | ty theadmin | 04:28 |
| Nicktendo64 | ok | 04:28 |
| rgenito | ActionParsnip: ty for the link :) | 04:28 |
| DaDaDOSPrompt | though if you've been running update manager, I imagine it would be up to date, unless you get it out of a repo running a newer version | 04:28 |
| ActionParsnip | rgenito: np dude | 04:28 |
| Nicktendo64 | ahk | 04:29 |
| Nicktendo64 | yea, i let ubuntu update when it wants to | 04:29 |
| rgenito | aww man, this forum is for ubuntu 8 :( | 04:29 |
| rgenito | i'm on 11.04 | 04:29 |
| theadmin | rgenito: Might still work. A lot has changed since 2008 though. | 04:30 |
| rgenito | theadmin: doesn't work. | 04:30 |
| rgenito | welp, i guess the file name changed | 04:30 |
| rgenito | but by udev ... i'm assuming /lib/udev | 04:30 |
| ActionParsnip | rgenito: 11.04 is only supported until October this year, thought about upgrading to a clean install of Precise? | 04:31 |
| rgenito | ActionParsnip: actually, i've thought about debian squeeze. | 04:31 |
| rgenito | totally has its shite together :) | 04:31 |
| Nicktendo64 | I wonder how well steam runs in ReactOS in VirtualBox? Only one way to find out ;D | 04:32 |
| tdlam | hi folks Im having a weird graphic bug at Xubuntu shutdown..the splash screen becomes corrupt with rainbow garbled colors...was wondering if anyone has any ideas how to fix this? | 04:33 |
| theadmin | rgenito: Basically any file in /etc/udev/rules.d ending in ".rules" will be read by udev. The basic rule for you is SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTR{address}=="aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff", NAME="eth0" | 04:33 |
| rgenito | oooooh | 04:33 |
| serumb2 | esta es una prueba | 04:34 |
| Nicktendo64 | ohshit its waix | 04:34 |
| Nicktendo64 | horray for getting throttled by the defult aussie sourceforge mirror, memories. | 04:35 |
| theadmin | tdlam: That always happens for me, no idea how to fix, I think it's sort of... normal | 04:35 |
| rgenito | thanks theadmin :) | 04:35 |
| rgenito | and thank you ActionParsnip as well! | 04:35 |
| tdlam | LOL oh krap!! ok well it was worth a shot...its weird huh? | 04:36 |
| theadmin | rgenito: I'm not sure when *exactly* are udev rules read though. I think at the time the device is plugged in. Network cards are "plugged in" at boot time for all the system cares. | 04:36 |
| l3d | was wondering how i would go about making a custom launcher on the launcher bar? | 04:37 |
| theadmin | l3d: Uh. 1) Run an app. 2) Right-click it. 3) Choose "Keep in Launcher" | 04:37 |
| tdlam | @theadmin: thank you for responding and I appreciate your time. | 04:37 |
| theadmin | tdlam: No problems, I didn't help tho | 04:37 |
| tdlam | at least I know its not just me...wonder izzit a bug? | 04:38 |
| newbz | i still dont find a solution =.= i hate instaling backtrack back | 04:38 |
| tdlam | well I also posted it on the desktop envirnments of the Ubuntu Forums...maybe someine has a solution...dunno though | 04:39 |
| rgenito | and then ANOTHER machine of mine freezes for a good 5 minutes after i initialize some GPUs | 04:39 |
| rgenito | ...so annoying... | 04:39 |
| theadmin | rgenito: ATI eh? | 04:39 |
| rgenito | but it's free so :D | 04:39 |

| rgenito | theadmin: i started having this problem after i shut the machine down, picked it up, moved it to another room, turn it on. | 04:40 |

| l3d | no i would like to make a root nautilus launcher like i used in 10.10 | 04:41 |
| theadmin | l3d: Ohhh... Doh... Not too sure about that, but my basic idea is to create the Desktop Entry under /usr/share/applications and pin it to the launcher bar | 04:42 |
| deepspeed | l3d, just stick with lucid. Or better yet, download bodhi 1.4! | 04:42 |

| rgenito | i sure wish this system would respond... lol >[ | 04:48 |
| Nicktendo64 | apparently killing the console process is a nono | 04:48 |
| rgenito | strangely: when i connect via ssh from another machine, i will be prompted for my password. after that, everything hangs again | 04:49 |
| rgenito | i doubt the problem is that my entropy pool is gone | 04:49 |
| rgenito | YAY everything responding again... | 04:49 |

| Nicktendo64 | i'm going to be nice to reactos, and put on firefox 2.0 | 04:52 |
| Nicktendo64 | Anyone know how to get virtualbox to see my usb flashdrive | 04:54 |
| rgenito | now wtf, all of a sudden /etc/resolv.conf changes every time i reboot? didn't i say static ip in /etc/network/interfaces !?!?!? | 04:55 |
| ActionParsnip | Nicktendo64: you need the virtualbox from the virtualbox website, not the ose | 04:55 |
| ActionParsnip | rgenito: can you pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces file please | 04:55 |
| rgenito | sure :D | 04:55 |
| rgenito | let me just wait for this thing to stop freezing :D | 04:56 |

| raid | Hi there, how can i get gnome 2 on my ubuntu 12.04 | 05:07 |
| ActionParsnip | raid: install gnome-panel package | 05:07 |
| raid | ActionParsnip: is that really gnome2? | 05:07 |
| foobArrr | I'm trying to find out why my desktop PC takes a lot longer to boot than my notebook, while its hardware should be quite a bit stronger and similar software is installed (sandy bridge vs C2D mobile, Xubuntu 12.04 on both, full disk encryption on both). I'm not sure, if I read the bootchart right: the system seems idle for almost 20 seconds (22 to 41). Is this a problem witch Xorg/lightdm? | 05:08 |
| foobArrr | bootchart, dmesg, Xorg log: http://84.200.211.204/g/boot/ | 05:08 |
| ActionParsnip | raid: its a similar look, gnome2 is a dead project | 05:09 |
| raid | foobArrr: does your laptop have a ssd? | 05:09 |
| rgenito | ActionParsnip: no ideas? :( | 05:10 |
| ActionParsnip | rgenito: Ive got a bit of an issue here, i'm gonna be afk a while | 05:10 |
| foobArrr | raid: both do. crucial m4 in the notebook, samsung 830 in the desktop | 05:10 |
| rgenito | ok, nevermind... i'm just gunna erase this piece of shhhh ubuntu and go back to debian. | 05:11 |
| lps2 | /set net_proxy_type 3 | 05:11 |
| raid | foobArrr: hmm, dunno about the performance of both. maybe your laptop has sata 600 and the pc does not | 05:11 |
| Nicktendo64 | ActionParsnip the command you sent me didn't work :( | 05:15 |
| Nicktendo64 | the one for virtualbox usergroups | 05:15 |
| foobArrr | raid: the ssds should perform quite similar. the desktop has SATA III, note sure about the notebook. | 05:16 |
| mahir256 | so i upgraded to lubuntu 12.10 alpha 3, and then i restarted, but now the login screen isn't showing up. i tried upgrading lightdm, but i realized that it took out my nouveau drivers. how do i reinstall them? | 05:16 |

| soulstitchmmo | Is there a way to increase the size of my ubuntu partition within ubuntu or do I have to go into win7? | 05:27 |
| caixa | SoulShadow, i dont think you can expand a partition | 05:31 |
| aeon-ltd | soulstitchmmo: i'd reccommend using a livecd environment instead of booting into the hdd | 05:32 |
| soulstitchmmo | well I know I can do it in windows. | 05:32 |
| soulstitchmmo | But what does a livecd option allow for? | 05:32 |
| aeon-ltd | I would just do it to reduce any chance of corruption during resizing | 05:33 |
| soulstitchmmo | ok thank you aeon-ltd | 05:34 |
| soulstitchmmo | Is there a way to improve pulseaudio performance? I find it's the buggiest part of my entire experience. I'm constantly have to kill it because it's glitching, or delete it from my home folder to fix yet another corruption/problem. | 05:35 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | soulstitchmmo: well you could remove it completely | 05:36 |
| soulstitchmmo | but then where would my sound come from? :p | 05:38 |
| r_a_f | hello- what install instead not supported adobe flash? | 05:39 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | soulstitchmmo: alsa | 05:40 |
| soulstitchmmo | Oh I thought I already had alsa as well. | 05:40 |
| soulstitchmmo | Does alsa give better performance. | 05:40 |
| ghostchick | bz,ping | 05:41 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | soulstitchmmo: im not sure of the specifics but pulseaudio is some kind of sound server built on top of alsa | 05:42 |
| soulstitchmmo | ok thank you i'll research that in a bit. | 05:42 |
| InferiorHumanOrg | alsa is the actual creator of sound, I however have no problems with pulseaudio my self and I do have an ubuntu machine that plays ALOT of music. | 05:43 |
| caixa | so ubuntu has 6 month release cycles? | 05:43 |

| rfergu | I'm not totally sure how to do that, but will try :) | 06:49 |
| rfergu | 0.0.0.0 prolly | 06:49 |
| DFrostedWang | kapz: Its not very hard. You could prolly use filexpert for that. | 06:49 |
| llutz_ | rfergu: whatever service you use, it should come with documentation. read it, configure it | 06:50 |

| arcsky | hello how do i uinstall exim4 and cupsd ? | 06:53 |
| kapz | DFrostedWang, I tried to mount android tablet through MTP and ubuntu wont recognize the device, otoh mounting as PTP would only mount the internal SD card of the device. So I am not sure how filexpert would help mopunting the card on ubuntu | 06:53 |
| DFrostedWang | filexpert helps you share files on your network | 06:54 |
| DFrostedWang | That is what you wanted, right? | 06:54 |
| DFrostedWang | Also, maybe ask in #android, too. | 06:54 |
| DFrostedWang | Also, you can get an ssh-server on your android. I am almost certain there is an app for that. | 06:54 |
| DFrostedWang | If not in the app store, google it. But there should be one. | 06:55 |
| kapz | DFrostedWang, no I want to mount the device's external SD card on ubuntu when connected via USB cable. Yes I can network the devices but the transfer speed would be painfully slow for transferring GB's of data. | 06:55 |
| rfergu | hmm doesn't | 06:55 |
| DFrostedWang | Oh | 06:56 |
| DFrostedWang | I thought you meant by network | 06:56 |
| DFrostedWang | Isn't that what MTP means? | 06:56 |
| DFrostedWang | NVM then. But you can mount it just like you would in Winblows | 06:56 |
| kapz | since it uses MTP which is available on Windows and Mac, I want to know if there is any app for ubuntu for that. | 06:56 |
| DFrostedWang | While it is plugged in, there should be an option to use as mass storage on your phone. | 06:57 |
| DFrostedWang | Then it should auto-mount | 06:57 |
| DFrostedWang | What phone do you have? | 06:57 |
| llutz_ | rfergu:then you should go to http://bottlepy.org/docs/dev and start some reading | 06:57 |
| kapz | DFrostedWang, google changed it since honeycomb, no more mass storage option. Media Transfer Protocol or PTP(Camera) | 06:57 |

| auronandace | !aptitude | 07:31 |
| ubottu | aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. You may encounter problems on multiarch installs (11.10 and higher) as aptitude cannot currently handle the same package with different architectures being installed at the same time. See http://pad.lv/831768 for more information. | 07:31 |

| Kartagis | oh, I can install it | 07:32 |
| timfrost | Kartagis: what happens if you try 'sudo apt-get --purge remove samba4'? That should clear the bad configuration file, so you can then install it fresh | 07:34 |
| AzzIzzA | rinzler: I don't know what mosh is but asterisk won't touch your webserver or ssh | 07:34 |
| Kartagis | llutz_: http://02579156dc3eb8ff.paste.se/ | 07:35 |
| Kartagis | yay | 07:36 |
| rinzler | AzzIzzA: mmkay. Thanks. Good to know. Also, mosh is an alternative to ssh that keeps the connection LOADS better, and you can roam with your client (as long as you keep the client terminal running) check it out at: mosh.mit.edu | 07:36 |
| AzzIzzA | rinzler: it's highly unlikely that you will run into problems installing well made programs for different tasks (e.g. installing two web servers is likely to cause conflicts, and installing a groupware server might interfere with a number of things (because it does a number of tasks) but a voip server shouldn't mess with other non-voip stuff) | 07:36 |
| AzzIzzA | rinzler: sounds interesting | 07:37 |

| Nicktendo64 | thanks | 08:08 |
| Calinou | process names can be found in "top" > table of processes | 08:08 |
| Calinou | inb4 shitstorm due to killall | 08:08 |
| Calinou | (it is safe, but 99% of people will yell at me "it's bad practice") | 08:08 |
| ssta | it is... | 08:09 |
| ssta | well, more a bad habit | 08:09 |
| Calinou | it works. | 08:09 |
| Calinou | see? | 08:09 |
| ssta | some unices, killall does *exactly* that...it kills everything | 08:09 |
| Nicktendo64 | i have heard of "xkill" | 08:09 |
| Nicktendo64 | What exactly is that? | 08:10 |
| llutz_ | xkill (1) - kill a client by its X resource | 08:10 |
| ssta | Calinou: also, sometimes the name isn't obvious (expecially for X stuff) | 08:10 |
| Nicktendo64 | Ahh, right. | 08:10 |
| Calinou | <ssta> some unices, killall does *exactly* that...it kills everything | 08:10 |
| Calinou | nope | 08:10 |
| Calinou | eg. if mumble glitches out (often happens): killall mumble then restart. kill mumble then restart > will always crash | 08:11 |
| Nicktendo64 | FileZilla is misbehaving and i need to kill/close it somehow. | 08:11 |
| iceroot | Nicktendo64: kill PID or pkill programname (this is killing everything containing that name. every kill-command is fine if not using -9 | 08:11 |
| ssta | Calinou: on eg Solaris, killall kills *all* active processes... | 08:11 |
| Calinou | oh again the kill fanboys | 08:11 |
| Kolatank | ping | 08:11 |
| Calinou | ssta, use a real distro then | 08:11 |
| iceroot | ssta: its killall foo which is killing all instances of foo | 08:12 |
| Nicktendo64 | pkill filezilla worked | 08:12 |
| Nicktendo64 | thanks for the help :) | 08:12 |
| ssta | iceroot: I know what it is... | 08:13 |
| ssta | iceroot: my point still stands. killall isn't so much bad practice as it is a dangerous habit | 08:14 |
| ssta | if you're SURE you're on Linux, and you're SURE you know what you're doing then fine, use it. But when at 3am you're remoated into 4 different systems trying to fix a problem and you brainfart and type it into the wrong ssh session...enjoy your P45 | 08:15 |
| geirha | just don't use it in scripts, only use it interactively | 08:16 |
| iceroot | ssta: the same for rm | 08:16 |
| iceroot | ssta: or any other command | 08:16 |
| Nicktendo64 | horray for borked ftp permissions | 08:16 |
| ssta | iceroot: wel, rm behaves the same on any system | 08:16 |
| m000gle | Does anyone know if its possible to have the Gnome-Shell Dash always fill 100% of the desktop's vertical space, regardless of how many icons it contains, similar to the Unity side bar? | 08:16 |

| Squall5668 | JDK | 08:18 |
| Squall5668 | oops | 08:18 |
| geirha | ssta: Doesn't RH have GNU rm too? or are you referring to those idiotic rm -i aliases some distros push on you? | 08:18 |
| ssta | geirha: I was referring to rm -i aliasing, yes...very annoying (and dangewrous if you start expecting everywhere to be like that) | 08:19 |
| geirha | ssta: Indeed, first thing I do on a new system is replace the .bashrc with my own | 08:20 |
| ssta | svn co dotfiles; cd dotfiles; ./install | 08:21 |
| mapreri | i use conky in precise, and i note i can't visualize the am/pm label next to the hour. i set the time format to %l:%M %p. so i tried to visualize this on a terminal via "date %l:%M %p", but i don't visualize am/pm. reading the man of date i found " %p locale's equivalent of either AM or PM; blank if not known". so i asked in #ubuntu-it and the suggested me to pose the variable LC_ALL to C, but in this way some application write their messagges | 08:21 |
| mapreri | in english (i'm italian). setting the varable to "it_IT.UTF-8" doesn't change the result.... so i think the locale doesn't memorize its version of AM/PM. do you have some suggetions? | 08:21 |

| bazhang | mapreri, have you read the conky beginners guide yet? | 08:35 |
| kino1 | Good bye | 08:35 |
| ingsoc | geirha: what do you mean randomly fail | 08:36 |
| bazhang | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpConky mapreri | 08:36 |
| geirha | ingsoc: It'll fail if any of the files or directories contains certain special characters, such as whitespace | 08:37 |
| DFrostedWang | Mine is using 541MB of memory | 08:37 |
| DFrostedWang | Just Unity is, I mean. | 08:37 |

| ubottu | DFrostedWang: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 08:37 |
| mapreri | bazhang: i have not read yet, but i think this troble is not releted to conky.. anyway i'm going to read it | 08:37 |
| geirha | ingsoc: run this, and also put it in your ~/.bashrc: greppy() { find . -type f -name "*.py" -exec grep "$@" /dev/null {} +; } | 08:38 |
| geirha | ingsoc: Then you can do greppy import to search recursively for import in all py files | 08:38 |
| DFrostedWang | MasterOfDisaster: My Unity is using 541MB of memory. Is that normal? | 08:38 |
| DFrostedWang | bazhang: Better? | 08:38 |
| MasterOfDisaster | DFrostedWang: no idea, I don't use unity | 08:39 |
| Mr_Macbuntu | how do i enable the syste administrator account? | 08:40 |
| iceroot | DFrostedWang: please remeber there is a difference in "used memory" and "cached memory which is not really used" | 08:40 |
| iceroot | !sudo | Mr_Macbuntu | 08:41 |
| ubottu | Mr_Macbuntu: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 08:41 |

| ubottu | Mr_Macbuntu: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 08:42 |
| DFrostedWang | Mr_Macbuntu: You can just log in as root, then. | 08:42 |
| bazhang | !gksudo | Mr_Macbuntu | 08:42 |
| ubottu | Mr_Macbuntu: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 08:42 |
| timfrost | geirha: ingsoc: using the '-print0' option of find, then piping to 'xargs -0' is better than using the '-exec' option to find, because xargs will pass lots of filenames to the grep command, and will use a null (0) character as the filename separator, to get over the white space issue | 08:42 |
| bazhang | DFrostedWang, thats very bad advice | 08:42 |
| DFrostedWang | I know | 08:42 |
| DFrostedWang | but if he knows what he is doing, he should be okay | 08:42 |
| bazhang | DFrostedWang, so dont suggest it | 08:42 |

| ubottu | DFrostedWang: As our !guidelines say, "When helping, be helpful". If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes. | 08:43 |
| DFrostedWang | I am familiar | 08:43 |

| bazhang | DFrostedWang, no. better say Nothing than destructive comments | 08:43 |
| Mr_Macbuntu | root is fine..... not scared:) | 08:43 |
| geirha | timfrost: -exec + will pass as many filenames as it can to the command. | 08:43 |

| DFrostedWang | You mean Winblows/Mac? | 08:45 |
| iceroot | Mr_Macbuntu: use sudo, we dont support a root-account here | 08:45 |
| DFrostedWang | That is never all-good. | 08:45 |
| Mr_Macbuntu | i need to use the gui...... not console | 08:45 |
| iceroot | Mr_Macbuntu: gksudo | 08:45 |
| DFrostedWang | gksudo | 08:45 |
| geirha | timfrost: yes, I think posix added it 5-10 years ago or so, I'd have to check. | 08:45 |
| primefalcon | Mr_Macbuntu, read the link I posted it'll xplain why you should use sudo, but if you eally want/need root acces it'll tell you how to do it | 08:45 |
| DFrostedWang | You know how to run apps from the terminal, don't you? | 08:46 |
| iceroot | Mr_Macbuntu: for example gksudo gedit to run gui-apps as root | 08:46 |
| timfrost | geirha: so used to the print0/xargs -0 that I haven't checked alternatives | 08:46 |
| IdleOne | Mr_Macbuntu: alt-F2 - gksudo nautilus - be careful. | 08:46 |
| Mr_Macbuntu | DFrostedWang: yes but i'm a gui head | 08:46 |
| Mr_Macbuntu | cheers | 08:46 |
| geirha | timfrost: Well, -exec + is standard, xargs -0 is not, so best get used to -exec + | 08:47 |
| ingsoc | geirha: sorry i understand now the issue, my find would just insert all the filenames as a list to the grep command and filenames with spaces would be interpreted as multiple files that don;t exist | 08:47 |
| geirha | ingsoc: Indeed. The four solutions I've given you so far will all handle filenames safely | 08:49 |
| ssta | I'd be interested to see how you guys handle the (admittedly very few) cases where you need root :) | 08:49 |
| foobArrr | when a virtualbox vm is running, gmpc says "problems opening audio device". wasn't that "only one program can play sound" problem supposed to be no problem anymore with pulseaudio? | 08:50 |

| iceroot | ssta: but if you know one, i am interested | 08:50 |
| ingsoc | geirha: I understand what the solutions are trying to do now, i never understood the problem. btw I never put spaces in filenames or dir names anyway, but it is all good to know. | 08:50 |

| Mr_Macbuntu | iceroot: here's a reason...... convenience | 08:53 |
| ingsoc | geirha: not complaining but this channel is very busy, is there a way to filter out messages easily like a grep in the window i am using pidgin, or is there a different irc client you could recommend | 08:54 |
| ssta | I don't accept convenience as a valid reason, but whoever said it was right, we should move this to offtopic | 08:54 |
| primefalcon | look rather than argue about sudo just read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo it'll even tel you how to enable a graphical root login if you really want, but read all of it! | 08:54 |
| primefalcon | this topic is bogging this channel down | 08:54 |
| ingsoc | geirha: i am new to linux if you hadn;t noticed | 08:54 |
| ingsoc | :) | 08:54 |
| Mr_Macbuntu | primefalcon: gksudo nautilus sorted it | 08:55 |
| primefalcon | Mr_Macbuntu, make sure you use a gksudo for any graphical ap, a normal sudo and mess with permissions for launching graphical apps, its happened to me even | 08:55 |
| Mr_Macbuntu | primefalcon: i just needed to drag and drop some files...... i know i can use the terminal. but i'm a gui and mouse head | 08:57 |
| geirha | ingsoc: Never used pidgin for irc, so I don't know. | 08:58 |
| primefalcon | Mr_Macbuntu, a lot of people are, especialy in Ubuntu land since Ubuntu is about Ubuntu for everyone :-) not just the elites like some distro's :-) | 08:58 |
| primefalcon | best irc clients are xchat and irssi | 08:59 |
| Mr_Macbuntu | i'm using it as it runs well on this macbook | 08:59 |
| DFrostedWang | primefalcon: That's why Ubuntu is referred to as n00buntu by most people who have used any other Linux distro or know their way around the CLI. | 09:01 |
| primefalcon | DFrostedWang, is also an elitist attitude that I have no time for...... | 09:01 |
| DFrostedWang | primefalcon: Hey, I calls 'em like I sees 'em. | 09:02 |
| ssta | The power of the CLI is still there in ubuntu (mostly). It's a good alance imo | 09:02 |
| DFrostedWang | It is a good balance. | 09:02 |
| primefalcon | it's all there, it is linux after, but out of the box, itsbuilt so anyone ca use it | 09:02 |
| DFrostedWang | I especially like Guake. :D Just drop it down and do my stuff in the terminal then get it out of my way. | 09:03 |

| DFrostedWang | IDK then | 09:13 |
| DFrostedWang | Prolly in settings, tho. | 09:13 |

| MorpheusChalice | But rear two and centre doesn't. | 09:13 |

| MorpheusChalice | Squall5668, that still doesn't work, weirdly. I removed the semicolon before the parametre and edited it to use 6 separate channels, but after restarting the computer, it still plays only two speakers. | 09:18 |

| dr_willis | saurabh4485: you are making a .deb that installs some custom firefox settings. you are saying? | 09:56 |
| jaxdahl | can i take an ubuntu package and recompile with different parameters given to 'configure'? | 09:56 |
| saurabh4485 | yes i want to do the same here | 09:56 |
| gvo | e__: Just guessing but I suspect you needed to do something in the config step to change the gcc options. | 09:57 |
| dr_willis | saurabh4485: the package would change the ff.settings defaults. system wide. not a single users settings. | 09:58 |
| gvo | jaxdahl: Yes | 09:58 |
| saurabh4485 | currently i have to do maual settings in firefox in about:config....but i want to do this automatically | 09:58 |
| Lantizia | MonkeyDust, right but this isn't a normal ethernet cat5 cable - it has only got 2pairs | 09:58 |
| Lantizia | why? | 09:58 |
| saurabh4485 | means in my installation the protocol handler settings should be installed | 09:58 |
| e__ | gcc? | 09:59 |
| gvo | Lantizia: Why? 'cause it's not an Ethernet cable. | 09:59 |
| === charlies_ is now known as charliesome_ | ||
| Lantizia | gvo, so what is it? | 09:59 |
| llutz_ | Lantizia: up to fast ethernet you only need 2 pairs | 09:59 |
| gvo | Lantizia: As I said companies use the rj45 for other purposes. Without knowing where it came from there is no answer to that question. | 10:00 |
| Lantizia | gvo, "other purposes" - like? | 10:00 |
| e__ | what is gcc? | 10:00 |
| dr_willis | cnc or other connectors ive seen Lantizia | 10:00 |
| Lantizia | gvo, might this cable have come with some old cisco kit that uses it as a serial cable? | 10:00 |
| gvo | Lantizia: We had a piece of test equipment, not network related, that used a cable with rj45 connectors to hook a sensor to a meter. | 10:00 |
| gvo | Lantizia: That's also a possibility but with only 4 wires probabaly not. | 10:01 |
| gvo | Lantizia: but possible. | 10:01 |
| gvo | Lantizia: Only thing I can tell you is that it won't work as an Ethernet cable. | 10:02 |
| Lantizia | gvo, well it sounds like it will up to 100BASET | 10:02 |
| gvo | Lantizia: Well, depends on which wires are connected, of course. | 10:03 |
| Lantizia | gvo, it also appears to be a crossover... i.e. the inner wires are not straight through pin for pin ... so can it be narrowed down further what this could be? | 10:04 |
| Lantizia | a crossover 2pair cat5 rj45 cable? | 10:04 |
| saurabh4485 | i want to make cross browser protocol handler...which will be automatically installed in pakage installtions so that my pakage looks better...currently i am doing this by making firefox settings manually...can anyone help me on this... | 10:04 |
| gvo | Lantizia: Maybe. Search the net for wiring a crossover and see if it matches. | 10:06 |
| Lantizia | saurabh4485, you can set new URL handlers and the corresponding action handler with something like.... gconftool-2 -s -t string /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/myprotocol/command '/usr/bin/myprotocol_action_handler "%s"' | 10:07 |
| Lantizia | saurabh4485, it'll be cross browser too | 10:07 |

| sveinse | This is on a amd64, precise, nvidia | 10:17 |
| e__ | gcc is installed and it still wont compile | 10:17 |
| geirha | sveinse: laptop with a touchpad? | 10:17 |
| Outis | @llutz_ Thanks. I've just installed 12.04 onto a netbook. Installation went well, though I didn't have internet. It seems, though, that I cannot boot into the system unless the live usb is in the drive. The live usb options don't come up, it just goes right into ubuntu | 10:18 |
| Outis | . | 10:18 |
| sveinse | geirha: Yes, but I'm not touching the built-in pad or keyboard. I'm using external mouse and it happens there as well? | 10:18 |
| sveinse | geirha: Spurious touchpad or hypersensitive pad? | 10:18 |
| geirha | sveinse: Ok, I often rest my hand near the touchpad, and once in a while, I trigger some movement on it | 10:19 |
| gvo | e__: I know what's wrong not how to fix it. Ask the developers. | 10:19 |
| sveinse | geirha: I do too, but not in this case | 10:19 |
| e__ | i didnt need to do that the last time i installed it | 10:19 |

| silverarrow | does anyone use libre office? I have trouble setting spell-check after changing default language | 10:19 |
| gvo | e__: Something has changed. Try adding a new user and compiling from there. Something in your environment might be affecting it. | 10:20 |
| sveinse | geirha: It's not the mouse. It happens at home as well, and the dock + peripherals is totally different. And it also happens on my server (also precise+xfce4) over NX. | 10:21 |
| sveinse | ...but when I think of it. I don't know if its caused by the NX client on my machine or indeed the server. | 10:21 |
| geirha | sveinse: Does it also happen when the mouse is still? | 10:23 |
| llutz_ | Outis: i'm not sure, it sounds as grub isnt configured correct. you might start from live-cd (USB) again and try to repair/rewrite it | 10:24 |
| Asad2005 | Will 20GB partition for root be good enough | 10:25 |
| DFrostedWang | Prolly | 10:26 |
| llutz_ | Asad2005: depends on your use, but it should be ok | 10:26 |
| Outis | llutz_: The live usb doesn't seem to be booting correctly. It goes straight to standard ubuntu, so I can't find a way to just reinstall. | 10:28 |

| AdvoWork | hi there, got an external USB HD thats not working(it was on windows, but each time it said Format). I know theres stuff on it still, but i think somehow the boot sectors or something have gone wrong. Any idea how I can begin to extract the data from this in Ubuntu? | 10:33 |
| Dmitry` | hmm, you can check HDD for errors | 10:34 |
| Dmitry` | it's a partition table problem | 10:34 |
| protist | yeah ide boot on a linux bootable drive then attempt to repair maybe | 10:35 |
| gvo | AdvoWork: First thing to do is plug the drive into a Ubuntu box and tail dmesg to see what the system thinks of it. | 10:37 |
| Dmitry` | protist, you may look at this: http://ubuntu-rescue-remix.org/ | 10:38 |
| Dmitry` | oops | 10:38 |
| protist | i wasn't actually the guy with the problem lol | 10:38 |

| protist | but thankyou :) | 10:38 |
| Dmitry` | protist, sorry :( | 10:39 |

| Naeblis | Hello. I need some help. My disk space keeps getting short, and then all of a sudden, it'll be back to the normal value. I initially thought it was because of the torrent file I was downloading (saving on another HDD), but it's happening even when I haven't started transmission. How can I stop this? | 10:45 |
| Outis | MonkeyDust: Well, I figured there might be a way to at least destabilize it enough that my live usb would work again. | 10:46 |

| llutz_ | gribouille: samba/file-sharing | 10:52 |
| Pumpkin- | microsoft file sharing/RPC stuff, and they almost certainly aren't open. The use of "filtered" suggests something is sending ICMP "no" responses. | 10:53 |
| Pumpkin- | lots of ISP's block those ports by default | 10:53 |

| RomeoAva | compdoc the unswer is: run: command not found | 11:48 |
| RomeoAva | ok | 11:48 |
| Fudge | lord_fyni yes of course | 11:48 |

| RomeoAva | compdaoc sad that: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded. | 11:49 |
| lord_fyni | i mean our file servers that use micrsoft are s lagged and are causing prblems. we have als problems with elecricity and smetimes during the night the ups that secures the servers gets down due to missing elecricity or unstable... and the servers keep saying errors that microsoft always has or they wont boot. i have heard that ubuntu doesnt have problems with errors when it gets restarted right? | 11:50 |
| compdoc | ok, when that happens, you have to run: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 11:50 |
| RomeoAva | compdoc : The following packages have been kept back: | 11:50 |
| RomeoAva | skype skype-bin:i386 | 11:50 |

| lord_fyni | well the ups are brand new with all the battery but i want to explain the problems that we had before. its alright now things are working well but i wanted to hear someone who is professional the expeirence why is unbutu better to be used as Microsoft first of all as a file server and i dont know whet else can ubuntu be helpfull | 11:53 |
| compdoc | RomeoAva, try the Update Manager. I have never used Skype, so I dont know how | 11:53 |
| RomeoAva | compdoc both are from skype. but i have ubuntu 64 | 11:53 |

| lord_fyni | suggestions.. | 11:53 |

| AdvoWork | any idea how I can fix that? | 12:12 |
| Fudge | AdvoWork did you boot into a recovery console? | 12:13 |
| BluesKaj | BronzeEagle: snd_hda_intel 1 , shouldn't be in the mix afaik , for your card , just snd_hda_intel | 12:13 |
| AdvoWork | i've not touched anything like that specifically, and i tried doing chown root:root like I think it was before, but it said unable due to readonly | 12:13 |
| AdvoWork | Fudge, i dont think so :S | 12:13 |

| lord_fuyi | Fudge, we use our servers one of them is a Domain controller, which we organize users and all the stuff .. the otherone is a file server and anotherone is a forefront TMG ,, in fact we have 2 file servers | 12:14 |
| ackbahr | rails : single progress documentation says that to output a text rather than changing the progression of the bar, one should use # before the echoed message. | 12:14 |
| Fudge | yeah I saw that lord_fuyi | 12:14 |

| BronzeEagle | BluesKaj: okay | 12:14 |

| Fudge | AdvoWork yes, there are probably peopel here who may be able to help you more though, but if your file system is read only then nothing can write to it like log files | 12:14 |

| MonkeyDust | Thomas_ if you're sweet | 12:32 |

| BronzeEagle | Thomas_: look *both* ways before crossing the street | 12:32 |
| BronzeEagle | not just to the left | 12:32 |
| danners | hey i have a new installation of 12.04 here. when i start it the low graphics thing starts up. xorg log looks fine: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1123258/ what could cause this? | 12:32 |
| Thomas_ | I usually just rush on the other side | 12:33 |
| BronzeEagle | Thomas_: that's extremely dangerous | 12:33 |
| BronzeEagle | you could die | 12:33 |
| Thomas_ | anyway, I'm looking to install Ubuntu on my system | 12:33 |
| Thomas_ | I used the windows installer | 12:33 |
| Thomas_ | and Ubuntu was even slower than Windows 7 for some reason | 12:33 |
| Thomas_ | would installing it from a CD help? | 12:33 |
| Thomas_ | or what am I doing wrong? | 12:33 |
| MonkeyDust | Thomas_ tip: create a separate /home partition, it's easier to reinstall or upgrade ubuntu afterwards | 12:34 |
| Thomas_ | do I do that with some kind of program? | 12:34 |
| MonkeyDust | Thomas_ other tip: don't use the wubi windows installer | 12:34 |
| Thomas_ | I'm new to this, sorry | 12:34 |
| molham | how can actvite alt +tap to switch between program's | 12:34 |
| Thomas_ | yes, I figured that out | 12:35 |
| Thomas_ | also, any other recommended and accessible Linux distros? | 12:36 |
| BluesKaj | BronzeEagle: yes that would explain it , but we need to make your intel sound card the default ("Card 0") . Open with root permissions , /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf , then at the bottom add this line , options snd_hde_intel index=0 . The look in the listed modules , making sure not others are listed as index=0 , if yo find one change it to index=-2 , then save the file ...this used to work , but sometimes it doesn't .Then reboot . | 12:37 |

| lpe | bobweaver: I'm in X now (fluxbox) so atleast that far went alright, but I still have the problems I had before I tried upgrading unfortunately | 15:14 |
| bobweaver | lpe, whhat are the issues that you are facing ? | 15:14 |
| lpe | bobweaver: let me try to wrap all the symptoms in to one line for you, give me a minute | 15:14 |
| bobweaver | Thanks lpe | 15:15 |

| zacktu | I have tried to do a backup with deja-dup to an external disk drive that is mounted on my home network. Everything on the external drive has root ownership. That's been okay as long as I used rsync on the command line, but I haven't found a way to use deja-dup. What to do? | 15:16 |
| RomeoAva | My Chromium is broken. the close buton is inactive, the others are working, also i close some tabs on it but one tab is not active, is stack | 15:16 |
| lpe | bobweaver: there's a bunch of different symptoms I've noticed but after I did an apt-get upgrade the other day (like ~30 packages was updated, can't remember which) both my screen went black, but TTY access worked if I pressed ctrl-alt-f1, but not f7. then reboot and got "you're running low-resolution mode due to errors" but after 3-4 reboots it came back normal, but with a clean nvidia config so I had to set up the dual-view once more. this have happen three times so fa | 15:17 |
| lpe | bobweaver: hence, I tried upgrading nvidia but ended up in the TTY, which is sorted now with your help | 15:17 |
| lpe | bobweaver: I've also changed graphics card to a new GTS 450, but it's all the same | 15:18 |
| bobweaver | lpe, have you tried to play around with something like glx-alternitive or nvclock ? | 15:19 |

| Genesus | Can anyone help me? | 15:19 |

| Genesus | I'm having problems with my 64 bit, so I need to install 32, but well-No CD or USB. So that leaves Unetbootin, (Which won't show up),m Hard Drive, or net I guess? | 15:20 |

| Genesus | It would be nice. | 15:24 |
| DoMai | Genesus: just install 32 libs | 15:24 |

| bobweaver | ahh | 15:52 |
| Genesus | And it still wouldn't let me install the 64 bit stuff I needed to get some games to run. | 15:52 |
| L3top | nvidia is a hardware manufacturer... I am suggesting you stick with nvidia, and spend as much as you feel comfortable with. Are you saying you need a PCI or PCIe card? PCI is going to be a bit of a trick to get anything that uses VDPAU alexidoia. | 15:52 |
| Hagop | InferiorHumanOrg : eth0 has 8 lines, eth1 has 8 lines, lo has 8 lines. What specifically can I tell you? | 15:52 |
| Genesus | I read to install a chroot, but every guide on the net, I can't get it to work. | 15:52 |
| alexidoia | L3top: what us VDPAU, and I don't think I have PCIe, let me check | 15:53 |
| Yandex_bx2 | Why do people go to such effort to play games on Linux? Just use a games console or Windows | 15:53 |
| bobweaver | Genesus, you clicked on install a program that is not on this list then set up a virual drive for it picked out wine versions and programs and that did not work ? | 15:53 |
| brasidas | Hagop: copy and paste the contents of the file to http://pastebin.com/ | 15:53 |
| L3top | alexidoia: Video accelleration. It shares the task between the GPU and CPU for cleaner playback, especially high definition. | 15:53 |
| Genesus | Sorry, a little bit of a newbie. Well, I DID That-But I couldn't install the stuff like I couldn't from winetricks, as it wouldn't let me install on a 64 bit computer | 15:54 |
| Hagop | brasidas: How do I do that when my ethernet isn't working? | 15:54 |
| Genesus | But that stuff is needed to even run the program properly. It's like trying to run runescape without Java, won't work. | 15:54 |
| alexidoia | L3top: ok I have PCIe, so what card would be good ? | 15:54 |
| bobweaver | Genesus, you are sure you are using play on linux ? | 15:54 |
| Genesus | I used Play on Linux. What I am saying is, Alright-You go onto winetricks on 64 bit, try to install let us say, .Net-Won't install, 32 bit only. | 15:55 |
| Genesus | I tried the same on Play on Linux | 15:55 |
| Genesus | SAME response. | 15:55 |
| L3top | alexidoia: pretty much anything nvidia at this point. | 15:55 |
| Genesus | I tried building a chroot but got confused and messed up. | 15:55 |
| brasidas | Hagop: you're on IRC right? Type the contents up or transfer the file to the IRC computer and copy and paste :) | 15:55 |
| Yandex_bx2 | Genesus: Have you tried using Windows to play the game? | 15:55 |
| alexidoia | L3top: but Nvidia build card ? | 15:55 |
| Genesus | Don't got Windows no more. | 15:55 |
| Genesus | And I was able to get the games to work PERFECTLY on 32 bit ubuntu | 15:55 |
| Genesus | So it was my mitsake for switching to 64 bit | 15:55 |
| brasidas | Hagop: we're not trying to be jerks, it's just hard to debug anything without seeing more information :) | 15:56 |
| Genesus | So I think I need to build a chroot or get 32 bit libraries, IDK. I'm confused. | 15:56 |
| alexidoia | L3top: ok they do, sorry did not know that, any particular recommendation ? | 15:56 |

| Hagop | My router *may* have a log. Let me check. | 16:09 |
| compdoc | ipv4 | 16:09 |
| sokje | also check /var/log/messages | 16:09 |

| locodir-user | how do I install an AMD/ATI driver in ubuntu? | 17:10 |
| L3top | can you be a little clearer Hagop | 17:10 |
| L3top | locodir-user: lspci -nn | grep VGA | 17:10 |
| aclocal | thats for awk but what about other man pages in /usr /... they are not all symlinks | 17:10 |
| locodir-user | brb | 17:10 |
| dr_willis | livingdaylight: like 15 to 20 gb for / rest for home plus what swap you want | 17:11 |
| Derp101 | Has no one attempted this? | 17:11 |
| ns_nazri | grup can working in windows 7 but grup only working in linux | 17:11 |
| Hagop | L3top: Got tx_timeout, Ring at 29fe4000, Dumping tx registers. | 17:11 |
| locodir-user | I'm playing Chrono Trigger, it's an snes game, I guess I got an snes emulator to work... | 17:11 |
| ssta | aclocal: no, but the ones which are, are only ever symlinks | 17:11 |
| aclocal | and update-alternate wanted to update the man pages for those it would have to over lay with a symlink the real man page | 17:11 |
| locodir-user | I installed it with Apper Installer... | 17:11 |
| drPoo | is there a way of specifying a script to be executed once the os has been loaded? | 17:11 |
| Hagop | L3top: No IPv6 routers present. | 17:12 |
| locodir-user | Did you know linux is less prone to viruses because you cannot run a program unless you install it? | 17:12 |
| livingdaylight | dr_willis: so, 20gb is more than enough - 25gb -30gb is just overkill | 17:12 |
| dr_willis | drPoo: depends on what it does | 17:12 |
| ssta | aclocal: generally it's all managed by dpkg maintainer scripts, and it all works out | 17:12 |
| drPoo | dr_willis, run a command nothing fancy | 17:12 |
| xangua | RomeoAva: tried to remove that 'eugene' ppa¿ you don't need it | 17:12 |
| locodir-user | how about 1TB ram, how fast do you think that would be? | 17:12 |
| aclocal | ok for now I will leave it at that | 17:12 |
| Derp101 | FML | 17:12 |
| dr_willis | livingdaylight: ive filles up 20gb.. i use 30gb these days | 17:12 |
| locodir-user | Because some external hard drives have 1TB and can be used as RAM | 17:12 |
| xangua | RomeoAva: at least you don't need it for Skype | 17:12 |
| RomeoAva | <xangua> yes, but how? | 17:12 |
| livingdaylight | dr_willis: i'm just reading after hearing about LVM for the first time. Sounds ideal in terms of the flexibility of resizing | 17:12 |
| L3top | Hagop: That was why I specifically delisted IPv6... one moment please. | 17:13 |
| locodir-user | Even with 10TB of ram it wouldn't run perfectly because you'd need a better CPU | 17:13 |
| RomeoAva | <xangua> in description is: Changes for the versions: | 17:13 |
| bobweaver | drPoo, you can make a script run at start up in terminal run gnome-session-properties | 17:13 |

| locodir-user | PAE? | 17:14 |
| RomeoAva | and? | 17:14 |
| livingdaylight | dr_willis: yea, don't want to run out either. So, why did yoiu say 15-20? based on 500gb hd? | 17:14 |
| Jinxed- | dr_willis, do you know why I am able to access my serial device via "sudo screen /dev/ttyS0 9600" but putty doesn't work? | 17:14 |
| locodir-user | I have a 500GB hdd, but I used up 90% of it... | 17:14 |
| ns_nazri | less virus and u can use try clamav | 17:14 |
| L3top | Hagop: using sudo vi again... go to the two lines below eth0 and eth1 and press dd at each line. This will delete the each one. then press :wq when correct | 17:14 |
| locodir-user | and vista is broken already... | 17:14 |
| dr_willis | livingdaylight: id say 20 to 30 reguardless of the hd sizes | 17:14 |
| codyps | I'm getting this error when checkinstall-ing elfutils: http://bpaste.net/show/VIDHHjpfTtJKCSu2ktgu/ . Any ideas? (control file: http://bpaste.net/show/37868/ ) | 17:15 |

| ubottu | locodir-user: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 17:15 |
| locodir-user | It's problably all my backups that take about 200GB | 17:15 |
| RomeoAva | <xangua> software center or update manager? | 17:15 |
| dr_willis | Jinxed-: putty is not a serial terminal app.. unless it has fwatures ive never used | 17:15 |
| locodir-user | You know that I used to think I sucked at this.... But that's because I have been doing complicated things for a while... | 17:16 |
| codyps | dr_willis: putty has serial support. | 17:16 |
| livingdaylight | What does Ubuntu installation do, if one doesn't manually assign and partition? just a swap and? root in which home is? | 17:16 |
| peggysmouse | does installing ubuntu from USB make any changes to the USB? | 17:16 |
| xangua | RomeoAva: you can edit software sources from any of those, yes | 17:16 |
| peggysmouse | (to hard drive) | 17:16 |
| RomeoAva | <xangua> and in software sources - other software | 17:16 |
| dr_willis | peggysmouse: usb should be yntouched | 17:16 |
| bobweaver | drPoo, make a link (hard) to /etc/rc0.d or one of the rc files ? | 17:16 |
| RomeoAva | <xangua> i dont finde eugen.. | 17:17 |
| RomeoAva | <xangua> there is canonical, but mani of | 17:17 |
| gr33n7007h | What is the command to test your speakers? | 17:17 |
| RomeoAva | <xangua> what do you think? is good to unchecked all. there are 2 canonical | 17:17 |
| locodir-user | Is there a way to mix the kernals of Windows, Ubuntu, and mac OS X so we can install applications for all of them as long as we don't re-distribute them? That would problably have more viruses though, huh? | 17:17 |
| peggysmouse | dr_willis: thanks. install failed and now it crashes every time I try. not sure what to do except recreate insall usb. | 17:17 |
| xangua | RomeoAva: it should be in the 'other software' tab | 17:18 |
| drPoo | bobweaver, I think that I will give this (http://tinyurl.com/cd7r6hv) a shot | 17:18 |
| locodir-user | Imma go use this to practice hacking... | 17:18 |
| L3top | gr33n7007h: depends on your card/device output | 17:18 |
| bobweaver | !hacking | locodir-user | 17:18 |

| gr33n7007h | L3top, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1123757/ | 17:20 |
| locodir-user | it's much less possible to get a virus if you develop your own kernal | 17:21 |
| locodir-user | And possibly since it might be unlegal to redistribute it if you make it able to run programs from many differen places then yeah... | 17:21 |

| L3top | Hagop: to be clear... we stopped the restart or it timed out... you then went and deleted the lower lines under eth0 and eth1 and then restarted networking again? | 17:28 |
| gr33n7007h | L3top, there is 11 controls and 8 of them are on 100% | 17:28 |

| ns_nazri | hallo to | 17:33 |
| L3top | Hagop: SOMETHING in your network setup is trying to force use of IPv6, and it isnt interfaces... so... I am a bit lost. | 17:33 |
| L3top | !anybody | 17:33 |
| ubottu | A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 17:33 |
| bender_ | dhcp issue ? | 17:33 |
| naghdi | I want to cut out a region of a disk between offsets. Is this at all possible with dd? | 17:34 |
| Hagop | L3top: Okay. Thanks for all your help. Seems like I need to Google for issues on this network interface with Ubuntu. | 17:34 |
| naghdi | I want to be able to specify the beginning and ending offsets. | 17:34 |
| Turing_ | okay, I can set different lightning levels on my keyboard but the notification always shows full lightning. What can I do to change this? | 17:35 |
| RomeoAva | <xangua> i didn't solve it. | 17:35 |
| RAsputtin | how can i connect via gprs ? | 17:35 |
| L3top | bender_: it should be receiving DHCP, and interfaces cannot be brought up, because it is looking errantly for IPv6.. Even when I tell it not to in interfaces. | 17:35 |
| ns_nazri | check keyboard amanger | 17:36 |
| bender_ | ohh | 17:36 |
| ryl | hi i am trying to use the rt3290sta wireless driver, under /proc/modules the driver shows up under the wireless connection info it shows up as the rt2860 driver | 17:36 |
| RAsputtin | bazhang: is here ? | 17:36 |
| gr33n7007h | L3top, my router was playing up could you repeat please | 17:36 |
| L3top | Hagop: We have manually edited interfaces... which will probably break network manager.. You will want to drop that back down to lo to get back to normal. | 17:36 |
| Turing_ | what is keyboardmanager? | 17:36 |
| RAsputtin | how can i connect via gprs ? | 17:36 |

| gr33n7007h | L3top, its hissing first command how to stop | 17:39 |
| hav0c | why when im trying to connect to irssi it says Exploited host | 17:39 |
| L3top | gr33n7007h: the long one made it hiss? turn the volume down. | 17:39 |
| Psycho_pr | Hi | 17:40 |
| L3top | gr33n7007h: you have a built in mic probably... go mute that in alsamixer | 17:40 |
| gr33n7007h | L3top, ok | 17:40 |
| RomeoAva | <Turing_> no my problem is with update manager | 17:40 |
| L3top | gr33n7007h: good news is, speakers are making noise. | 17:40 |
| |Anthony| | is 210MB alot of RAM for Xorg to be using? | 17:40 |
| L3top | Depends on what it is doing |Anthony| | 17:41 |
| |Anthony| | seems awful high to me | 17:41 |
| hav0c | anybody? | 17:41 |
| gr33n7007h | L3top, turned mic down now stopped | 17:41 |
| hav0c | why when im trying to connect to irssi it says Exploited host | 17:42 |
| L3top | Ok... run the second one... will probably be loud... use your volume control... will test left and right once with sine wave | 17:42 |
| Psycho_pr | Ubuntu 12.04, Z77-DS3H, i7-3770, system kept freezing, so I read somewhere that I should update the kernel. I tried to update the kernel by downloading the relevant .deb files from kernel.ubuntu.com and installing it. I tried 3.5 It failed in the last one, and I was afraid to reboot, so I then downloaded 3.3.6 and installed these, rebooted, and what do I see? 3.5 running (according to uname -a). I installed some other package using ap | 17:42 |
| Psycho_pr | t-get and it told me that my repository is broken or something (that linux-headers requires linux-all, or vise versa), and I should run apt-get -f install. I did and then it removed the package which had the prerequisites. Now I'm not sure what to do and I'm afraid to reboot... | 17:42 |
| |Anthony| | L3top, normal stuff... rhythmbox, minecraft, ssh into server with x11 forwarding (open nautilus and gedit) | 17:42 |
| gr33n7007h | L3top, second command also works so why doesn't youtube vids have any sound | 17:42 |
| xwolf_ | Hi | 17:42 |
| L3top | Psycho_pr: that is unsupported here... unfortunately. | 17:43 |
| L3top | |Anthony|: are you using Unity 3d? | 17:43 |
| |Anthony| | nope... still on 10.04 | 17:43 |
| |Anthony| | using compiz and emerald though | 17:44 |
| Psycho_pr | L3top, What do you mean? | 17:44 |
| hav0c | upgrade to 12.04lts | 17:44 |
| xwolf_ | Hello every one i'm a new user to ubuntu. Can anyone help me in what to do first | 17:44 |
| xangua | !manual | xwolf_ | 17:44 |
| ubottu | xwolf_: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 17:44 |
| L3top | Ah... well that is probably correct then... compiz... and upgrading to 1204 will not likely improve that |Anthony|. | 17:44 |
| hav0c | xwolf google | 17:44 |
| |Anthony| | lol | 17:44 |
| hav0c | lol | 17:45 |
| |Anthony| | honestly, i have no intention of using 12.04 on my daily desktop | 17:45 |
| L3top | Psycho_pr: upgrading your kernel takes you out of the realm of ubuntu support. | 17:45 |
| |Anthony| | not to fond of it tbh | 17:45 |
| gr33n7007h | L3top, waiting for sound system to respond | 17:45 |
| hav0c | how can change my username color into blue same like you guys? | 17:45 |
| L3top | So it is ONLY flash that has no audio gr33n7007h? | 17:45 |
| Psycho_pr | L3top, But I downloaded the kernel FROM the ubuntu website. | 17:46 |
| gr33n7007h | L3top, cd's dont play any sound neither | 17:46 |
| ns_nazri | mybe upgrade your ubuntu new and the kernel | 17:46 |
| hav0c | can anyone answer my questiion? | 17:46 |
| L3top | Psycho_pr: We don't even support 12.10 in here... you are beyond support I am afraid. I am not trying to upset you.. and maybe someone will try to help you... but... this is NOT a supported action. | 17:47 |
| hav0c | how can change my username color into blue same like you guys? | 17:47 |
| Psycho_pr | What do you mean by "We don't support"? Isn't this a channel on freenode where enthusiasts dwell and help each other out of courtesy that has nothing to do with business? | 17:47 |
| gr33n7007h | hav0k, what irc client you using | 17:47 |
| Pici | hav0c: I've never seen that error on irssi, it sounds like its something thats coming from the irc server you're connecting to. | 17:48 |
| hav0c | xchat @ gr33n | 17:48 |
| gr33n7007h | hav0c, 1 sec let me check | 17:48 |
| centrelink | Psycho_pr, I'm afraid everyone in here is a canonical exployee that is only paid to support current versions of Ubuntu. | 17:48 |
| Pici | Psycho_pr: This is the official Ubuntu support channel, we do cannot support every crazy thing that people choose to do on their Ubuntu installs. | 17:48 |
| hav0c | i want to use my teminal using irssi but | 17:48 |
| xwolf_ | How to create a open source application? | 17:48 |
| hav0c | i can`t connect | 17:48 |
| Psycho_pr | I didn't realize you guys were Canonical employees... | 17:49 |
| hav0c | its says always Exploited host | 17:49 |
| Pici | Psycho_pr: Ignore centrelink, hes being silly. | 17:49 |
| hav0c | i will get BAN | 17:49 |

| hav0c | dal.net @Pici | 17:51 |
| Pici | hav0c: It really sounds like an error message that you'd need to contact that IRC network about. There is nothing that we can do here to help you.. | 17:52 |
| hav0c | @Pici thanks | 17:52 |
| L3top | cynicaloptimist: there is no menu.lst in grub2... thats why I gave you the link. | 17:52 |
| cynicaloptimist | ah, i've only checked the first one. Thanks! | 17:52 |
| varun | hello friends | 17:52 |
| L3top | np :) | 17:52 |
| hav0c | even this server i cannot connect using irssi | 17:53 |
| varun | i need help with tor in ubuntu | 17:53 |
| ns_nazri | install tor | 17:53 |
| L3top | Psycho_pr: meaning that this is the official support channel for Ubuntu, your issue is unsupported, so you are not to continue to ask support questions for unsupported actions... and we are volunteers... you are correct, I am just telling you what the admins will tell you. They kick folks for continuing to ask unsupported questions. I guess it clutters the chat in a large channel... it certainly is no skin off my nose. | 17:53 |
| xwolf_ | varun: tor is already installed in ubuntu | 17:53 |
| ns_nazri | sudo apt-get install tor | 17:53 |
| Pici | hav0c: What error message do you get when you try to connect? | 17:53 |
| hav0c | wait a sec @Pici | 17:54 |
| hav0c | You are banned from *server* | 17:55 |

| Nomad|2 | If I'm installing something that could harm my computer, how do I create a restore point to revert to should anything happen? | 18:02 |
| L3top | Nomad|2: You should backup/clone. What are you trying to install that could harm your computer... and why? | 18:04 |
| kaliacrow | hav0c could not find src/or/tor | 18:04 |
| Sidewinder1 | Nomad|2, There really is no "Restore Point" as in windows; just make a back-up of your system; that serves the same purpose. | 18:05 |
| hav0c | try to find it in your folder | 18:05 |
| L3top | kaliacrow: what did 'which tor' return? | 18:05 |
| hav0c | extrated folder of tor | 18:05 |

| hav0c | but i need to use vidalia | 18:08 |
| kaliacrow | i installed vidalia .. | 18:08 |

| ubottu | kaliacrow this may help: Tor is a program to route connections through several servers for anonymity. It is in Ubuntu's repositories, but the Tor Project recommends using their Tor packages due to past issues with Ubuntu's. For setup info, see option (2) of https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | To use Tor on freenode, see !tor-sasl | 18:11 |

| alexhairyman | L3top ? | 18:23 |
| ns_nazri | kaliacrow, follow How to install Tor on Backtrack 5 | 18:23 |

| alexhairyman | So.... | 18:24 |
| trism | djzn: it seems to be working partially here (I just set it and my text cursor is huge, but the normal pointer isn't, I'm thinking a log out/back in would fix it) | 18:24 |
| trism | djzn: in compiz (unity) | 18:24 |
| hav0c | @kaliacrow i hope this can help you http://www.ethicalhack3r.co.uk/security/setting-up-tor-on-backtrack/ | 18:24 |
| djzn | trism: actually i don't think it 'fixes' | 18:25 |
| trism | djzn: fine fine, I'll check | 18:25 |
| djzn | trism: i tried and nothing... however this is another machine i installed | 18:25 |
| Lemmiwinks1 | Hi my laptop fails resume from suspend when the nvidia drivers are enabled. it works like a charm with nouveau though. I found out, that it also works with the nvidia drivers when I tweak the grub options, in particular removing gfxmode $linux_gfx_mode which is part of the /etc/grub.d/10_linux file. I am on a Dell Inpiron 1520 Laptop. Anyone else having such a problem? | 18:25 |
| ns_nazri | kaliacrow, and then open your terminal | 18:25 |
| L3top | alexhairyman: so you have installed 12.10. | 18:25 |
| hav0c | or @kaliacrow use backbox | 18:26 |

| L3top | alexhairyman: well... either you installed from a 1210 cd mistakenly, or you typed a very specific do-release upgrade command that allows you to upgrade to a beta distro? | 18:27 |
| ThinkT510 | ns_nazri: take the backtrack support elsewhere please | 18:27 |
| hav0c | wtf? | 18:27 |
| alexhairyman | Huh... Okay cool I guess? | 18:27 |

| hav0c | it seems kaliacrow solve his problem...lol | 18:29 |
| trism | djzn: it really is kind of odd, every cursor is huge except the default pointer (resize, text, hourglass, etc) | 18:29 |
| alexhairyman | Oh it was just jamachi... I need to get rid of it | 18:29 |
| djzn | trism: yes... | 18:30 |

| Pici | hav0c: Are you running Ubuntu or Backtrack? | 18:41 |

| hav0c | bt sir | 18:41 |

| akamikeym | hi there! cna anyone tell me what's going on when you see a usb as /dev/sdc rather than /dev/sdc1 or whatever? | 18:47 |
| alexhairyman | L3top ubuntu quantal | 18:47 |
| L3top | That is truly bizarre... I have no idea how THAT happened alexhairyman | 18:48 |
| brennan | my SD converter memory card will not get detected by ubuntu.. i dont know what its call in lsusb | 18:48 |
| bekks | akamikeym: /dev/sdc is the USB device, and /dev/sdc1 is a partition on that device. | 18:48 |
| klj613 | when i ssh to server and leave it a while, it freezes. any idea why? | 18:48 |
| akamikeym | bekks, that's what normally happens but sometimes a usb partition appears as /dev/sdc | 18:48 |
| xomp | klj613, maybe the connection timed out and you just think you're still connected? | 18:49 |
| alexhairyman | L3top Doesn't seem to not be working..... except the goddamn F10 key.... that shit is annoying | 18:49 |
| brennan | my SD converter memory card will not get detected by ubuntu.. i dont know what its call in lsusb. can someone help me? | 18:49 |
| L3top | alexhairyman... so the new question you should be asking someone who is not me... is how is it having installed 12.04, having the 12.04 kernel, is lsb_release and the desktop identifying as 12.10 | 18:49 |
| akamikeym | I would like to partition such a usb but I'm not sure how | 18:49 |
| bekks | akamikeym: Thats not possible. What might causes that, is, that a fileesystem was created on the entire device instead on a partition. | 18:49 |
| L3top | !language | alexhairyman | 18:49 |
| ubottu | alexhairyman: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 18:49 |
| alexhairyman | sorry :( | 18:49 |
| klj613 | xomp, probably. but its irritating that the process which was currently running was still on :p | 18:50 |
| alexhairyman | It's just weird. Who should I be asking? | 18:50 |
| tcstar | I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 on my server currently. I have all my email being routed through gmail. What I need to figure out, is the best way to have the ability to use SMTP on the local server to send mail only, not receive it. Any ideas? | 18:50 |
| xomp | klj613, well, I don't know why you would expect the process to die when you have it still up. It's just no longer connected. | 18:50 |
| akamikeym | bekks, would I be safe in repartitioning it then, even though fdisk says it's not a valid partition table? | 18:50 |
| L3top | alexhairyman: the channel. I am just releasing you into the wild I am afraid. | 18:50 |
| bekks | akamikeym: Actually, it doesnt matter :) | 18:50 |
| alexhairyman | Okay :( | 18:50 |
| akamikeym | bekks, at the mo it's exactly as the factory sent ti. | 18:51 |
| llutz | tcstar: read about ssmtp/msmtp/nullmailer | 18:51 |
| bekks | akamikeym: And whatsthe problem with it? :) | 18:51 |
| brennan | can no-one help me? | 18:51 |
| tcstar | llutz: thanks i'll do some googling. | 18:51 |
| L3top | brennan: pastebin the output of lsusb | 18:51 |
| akamikeym | bekks, awesome, I'll give it a shot. I was just worried that there was something deaper going on that I didn't understand. | 18:52 |
| brennan | how do i pastebin | 18:52 |

| Hagop | Ubuntu newbie looking for advanced help further diagnosing/configuring failing ethernet connection on fresh install of 12.04 (performed 7/31). Preliminary diagnosis indicates installation recognizes both onboard ethernet ports (NVIDIA using forcedeth on Tyan 2895 system board) but wired computer is not getting IP address from Netgear WGT624 router. | 18:53 |
| ns_nazri | brennan, or check dmesg | 18:53 |
| akamikeym | bekks, gparted slightly freaked me out by refusing to put more than one partition on it. | 18:53 |
| troulouliou_dev | hi is ot possible to restrict the forward queries on a bind9 server to some ip only ? | 18:53 |
| bekks | akamikeym: You could use fdisk as well. | 18:54 |
| nannes | !boot-repair | 18:54 |
| nannes | !bootrepair | 18:54 |
| akamikeym | bekks, yes I will. I normally od but I want to copy and enlarge partitions from another usb stick that I have ubuntu installed on | 18:54 |
| xomp | is there an up-to-date article anywhere about saving a list of installed packages so I can clone my install to another box? The info on the bot here is out of date badly as well is a lot of my google search results. | 18:55 |
| akamikeym | bekks, I'll setup the new partitions with fdsik then try gparted again to see if it will play | 18:55 |
| DJones | !cloning | xomp Does this not give you what you need? | 18:56 |
| ubottu | xomp Does this not give you what you need?: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » (this currently may cause problems with multiarch) - See also !automate | 18:56 |
| bekks | akamikeym: Why dont you just create the partitions like you want them, and copy over the content of the other usb stick, instead messing with fdisk AND gparted? | 18:56 |
| xomp | DJones, yeah, that's terribly out of date information | 18:56 |
| OerHeks | be carefull with aptitude in that Factoid on 64 bit, xomp | 18:56 |
| OerHeks | !aptitude | 18:57 |
| ubottu | aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. You may encounter problems on multiarch installs (11.10 and higher) as aptitude cannot currently handle the same package with different architectures being installed at the same time. See http://pad.lv/831768 for more information. | 18:57 |
| xomp | yeah, I know it doesn't play well with x64 arch | 18:57 |
| akamikeym | bekks, I'd like uuids to be preserved as well if possible | 18:57 |
| bekks | akamikeym: You can set the UUIDs afterwards using tune2fs e.g. | 18:57 |

| dimos | Hello! I want to install a virtual ubuntu server...the ubuntu 12.04 server version in KVM...what do you suggest? Ubuntu Server 12.04, 32 or 64 bits? my cpu is 64bits... | 19:01 |
| L3top | brennan: btw I assume that you had the SD plugged in for that fdisk? | 19:01 |
| L3top | dimos: virtualized i would run 32... and you just... install it. | 19:02 |
| ns_nazri | dimos, i think vmware | 19:02 |
| bekks | dimos: I'd run 64bit as long as the CPU supports 64bit guests. | 19:03 |
| bekks | dimos: And I'd use virtualbox instead of KVM. | 19:03 |
| brennan | yes L3top It was plugged it i'll try lsusb | 19:03 |
| L3top | I disagree with bekks... and that is ok :) | 19:03 |
| zykotick9 | dimos: are you planning to use the vm for something that would benefit from 64bitness? or are you going to give the VM more then 4GB RAM? if no, to either - i'd suggest 32bit | 19:04 |
| ns_nazri | bekks, is good idea this open source and free | 19:04 |

| dimos | bekks, ns_nazri: i choose KVM because i see on the internet that is better for Linux Virtualization... | 19:04 |
| Gregor3000 | dimos,i have xubuntu desktop and some server packages 32bit. but i have only 512 MB ram in vbox. LAMP runs fine | 19:05 |
| zykotick9 | dimos: if you want a desktop VM (with 3d graphics, use virtualbox). if you want something fast/more supported in gnu/linux - use kvm. | 19:05 |

| hkais | Gregor3000: I haven't tried it with unpatched kernels | 19:09 |
| hkais | Gregor3000: which version should I try? | 19:09 |
| Gregor3000 | hkais,try the oldest one you have see if it works. sometimes kernel changes break suspend/hibernate... well power management features. happens on desktops as well. | 19:10 |
| hkais | hmm okay. i will try it | 19:10 |
| ns_nazri | dimos, i cannot sure | 19:10 |

| djzn | trism: that bug, has got a number of duplicates, it is a series of duplicates... there were a couple of workarounds but the one that really worked was a patching compiz which no longer works of course.... | 19:45 |

| OerHeks | lattera, good, > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZFS | 19:57 |
| xomp | ActionParsnip, any resource I can look too for this rsync over sftp business? I have never used rsync before and I'm worried I'll screw something up. | 19:58 |
| brennan | here is fdisk -l | 19:58 |
| brennan | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1124033/ | 19:58 |
| L3top | ezonno: first of all... there are often several different hardware configurations within model numbers... What you SHOULD do is get a live cd... and boot to it, and see that everything works. | 19:59 |
| Hagop | My (incredibly limited) understanding of IPv6 was that it was supposed to work above/alongside IPv4, sort of like an umbrella. | 19:59 |
| === Tux is now known as cvs | ||
| L3top | same brennan. Have you tried a different SD? | 19:59 |
| ActionParsnip | xomp: install openssh-server on the reciever end (system you are copying to) then you can use grsync (if you have a desktop UI), to mirror the data | 19:59 |
| ActionParsnip | !rsync | xomp | 19:59 |

| brennan | i dont have another one | 20:00 |
| OerHeks | Hagop, sure, there is an IPv6 bridge, i saved 9 sec boottime without IPv6 enabled. some wired-network problems can be solved that way too. | 20:00 |
| ezonno | L3top: I will do so, don't have the laptop yet though, can't see many references about ubuntu and the XPS 14 either. | 20:00 |
| brennan | L3top, i dont have another on | 20:00 |
| brennan | *one | 20:00 |
| ActionParsnip | brennan: what is the output of: lsb_release -sc | 20:00 |
| xomp | ActionParsnip, do I want to use rsync on the receiving box too? | 20:01 |
| Hagop | I'd be happy to either use or disable IPv6 if I could simply connect my computer to the 'net. | 20:01 |
| OerHeks | !ipv6 | 20:01 |
| ubottu | For an introduction to IPv6 and information on tunneling IPv6 through IPv4 connections, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IPv6 | To disable IPv6 see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4 | 20:01 |
| brennan | the output of lsb_release -sd is Ubuntu 12.04 LTS ActionParsnip | 20:02 |
| L3top | Hagop: Something I do not understand has to be explicitly trying to force IPv6 negotiation. I DID disable IPv6 and it STILL failed with the error that there were no IPv6 routers... | 20:02 |
| ActionParsnip | xomp: no, that just gets the data afaik | 20:02 |
| xomp | ActionParsnip, okay, I'll try to fumble through this rsync thing now :) I'll be doing it over a network | 20:02 |
| ActionParsnip | brennan: its not showing up in lsusb, can you pastebin the output of: lspci Thanks | 20:03 |
| L3top | Hagop: follow that second link. It uses a blacklist method... see if that works. | 20:03 |
| L3top | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4 Hagop | 20:03 |
| Hagop | Just when I thought IPv4 was universal enough to be working without any inordinate hoop jumping, and here I am being screwed by its supplanter. ;-) | 20:03 |

| lattera | so I installed the repo https://launchpad.net/~zfs-native/+archive/stable/ | 20:06 |
| lattera | what packages do I need to install for zfs? | 20:06 |
| lattera | `apt-cache search zfs` doesn't show me those packages at all | 20:06 |
| meganerd | that is because you can't package zfs due to licencing issues | 20:06 |
| lattera | if they can't be packaged, why are they in a ppa repo? | 20:07 |
| meganerd | lattera: because a PPA is not controlled by Canonical | 20:07 |
| lattera | right | 20:07 |
| meganerd | lattera: and thus be "distributed" | 20:07 |
| lattera | so the packages are in that ppa | 20:07 |
| lattera | how do I install from that ppa? | 20:07 |
| trism | lattera: did you run: sudo apt-get update; after adding the ppa? | 20:07 |
| OerHeks | lattera, native stable ppa is on that page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZFS | 20:07 |
| paideia | how to search for a package that provides a certain file? I'm looking for Xlib.h | 20:08 |
| Hagop | echo 'blacklist ipv6' | sudo tee -a '/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.local' >/dev/null | 20:08 |
| meganerd | lattera: you need to add the PPA and then do an apt-get update before you can search, the PPA page should have the details | 20:08 |
| OerHeks | ah good thinking trism | 20:08 |
| lattera | oh, right, forgot `apt-get update` | 20:08 |
| lattera | thanks | 20:08 |
| meganerd | paideia: package.ubuntu.com has a search box | 20:08 |
| meganerd | paideia: packages.ubuntu.com has a search box | 20:08 |
| L3top | paideia: you could try dpkg -S Xlib.h | 20:08 |

| MCl0vin | ok lets say my laptop is running 12.04 64bits is it possible i can convert it to 32bit and visa versa without losing my pkgs and data? | 20:11 |
| Hagop | L3top: I can't boot to Ubuntu without appending ACPI=off to the end of my "linux /boot/vmzlinuz..." line in GRUB. | 20:11 |
| bazhang | MCl0vin, full reinstall | 20:11 |
| L3top | fairly common Hagop. Not seeing a way for that to force IPv6 negotiation. Did you try blacklisting as the link suggests? | 20:12 |
| MCl0vin | so no work arround | 20:12 |
| meganerd | MCl0vin: you can backup a list of installed packages to make it easier to install them all later (dpkg-get selections and dpkg-set-selections) | 20:12 |
| bazhang | MCl0vin, back up home | 20:12 |
| Hagop | L3top: I did. I'm just trying to ask how to save my changes in GRUB so I don't have to make this change every time I boot. | 20:13 |
| copec | How do I actively list known upstart events? | 20:13 |
| L3top | Hagop: Didn't it tell you to put this in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file? or something? | 20:13 |
| Hagop | L3top: (The link tells me to reboot, so this is happening because I'm following those instructions.) | 20:13 |
| meganerd | Hagop: edit your /etc/default/grub, then run "sudo update-grub " | 20:13 |
| ActionParsnip | brennan: all I can suggest is report a bug | 20:13 |
| zykotick9 | meganerd: when i brought !clone's use of aptitude up in #ubuntu-ops the suggestion of using dpkg as an alternative was shot down quickly... use your suggestion with caution... | 20:14 |
| brennan | how do i do that? | 20:14 |
| meganerd | zykotick9: I have used it successfully for more than a decade now | 20:14 |
| brennan | ActionParsnip, how do i do that? | 20:14 |
| meganerd | zykotick9: of course YMMV | 20:14 |
| L3top | Hagop: I am not sure what you are trying to do... you mean to say that you never edited /etc/default/grub ? you just boot each time with the option? What meganerd said then. | 20:15 |
| MCl0vin | megabitdragon, sudo: dpkg-get: command not found | 20:15 |
| ActionParsnip | brennan: ubuntu-bug linux-image-generic will start the proces | 20:15 |
| Hagop | L3top: During this boot, it's pausing on the maroon splash screen saying, "Waiting for network configuration..." | 20:17 |
| Hagop | L3top: Now it's saying, "Waiting up to 60 more seconds for network configuration..." | 20:17 |
| L3top | Of couuurse it is.... press esc Hagop | 20:17 |
| L3top | Hagop: this should drop the splash and you can see what specifically it is doing | 20:17 |
| L3top | Hagop: did you undo the changes you made to /etc/network/interfaces? | 20:18 |
| Hagop | L3top: I did not. | 20:19 |
| MCl0vin | i lunch deaj dup back and it complaining about permission | 20:20 |

| dr_willis | luist: wget. or httrack perhaps | 20:27 |
| ActionParsnip | brennan: its a hardware thing, you can buy a usb sd card reader for the price of a beer | 20:27 |
| L3top | JaddVe: http://www.mentby.com/Group/alsa-list/m-audio-fasttrack-c400.html it appears so... perhaps with some work. | 20:28 |

| sinfuzi0n | Are any of you guys even really using 12.04, and if you are, did you go back to the original gnome toolbars? | 21:03 |
| bazhang | !notunity | sinfuzi0n | 21:03 |
| ubottu | sinfuzi0n: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 21:03 |
| pb | lol.. | 21:03 |
| ssta | sinfuzi0n: lots using it in both ways, andf lots using other DEs. | 21:03 |
| pb | i use both ubuntu and the kde.. and gnome 3.. | 21:04 |
| sinfuzi0n | True, kind of a dumb question, I was just a little curious. Didn't think it was so common you guys have a command to tell people about it | 21:04 |
| locodir-user | What is that little lock symbol on that folder? | 21:04 |
| paideia | schultza: how shall I specify the 'requires' field for a pkg I'm building, I mean, what is the naming format for referring to the dependency packages? | 21:04 |
| bazhang | locodir-user, what folder | 21:04 |
| ssta | sinfuzi0n: Unity is the marmite DE. People either love it or hate it :) | 21:04 |
| * tshirtman use unity since 11.04, and loving it, was using alternative DE/WMs before | 21:04 | |
| locodir-user | it's a folder I created and tried to install java in the folder it's in | 21:04 |
| bazhang | locodir-user, tried to install java how and from where, what version of ubuntu, which java | 21:05 |
| locodir-user | the most recent I tried rpm or 64 bit | 21:05 |
| bazhang | locodir-user, rpm is not for Ubuntu | 21:05 |
| paideia | how shall I specify the 'requires' field for a pkg I'm building, I mean, what is the naming format for referring to the dependency packages? | 21:06 |
| bazhang | !java | locodir-user | 21:06 |
| ubottu | locodir-user: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 21:06 |

| ActionParsnip | WeThePeople: boot the old kernel | 22:11 |
| brennan | whats a hex id? | 22:12 |
| ActionParsnip | brennan: one line will identify the modem, look for the word 'ID' using your eyes, it will look something like this: 005A:B5EA | 22:13 |
| brennan | ActionParsnip, funny and what do i do with the id? | 22:13 |
| ActionParsnip | brennan: " and use the 8 character hex id to find guides" | 22:14 |

| ActionParsnip | brennan: whichever search engine you desire, but yes | 22:14 |
| brennan | ActionParsnip, dude i'm such a noob | 22:14 |

| brennan | ActionParsnip, sweet | 22:15 |
| WeThePeople | actionparsnip, the old kernel no longer works either | 22:15 |

| deitarion | As sort of a hobby, I set up Lubuntu on older machines and then donate them to people who can't afford computers. However, Precise's build of mplayer2 segfaults because it's built to expect too new a CPU. What's the simplest way I can keep GNOME MPlayer while convincing the dependency system that "mplayer" will satisfy its dependency on "mplayer2"? | 22:28 |
| PRabyte | i have one drive, 500 gigs. i did an encrypted home/dir at install, and an 80 gig partition / ext4. i have 480 gigs on drive left to put logs. how do i use /dev/sda2 for logging? | 22:30 |
| d1gital_ | ubuntu breaks on old hardware now, too? =S I'm not liking how this is going. | 22:30 |
| amin_ | ae | 22:30 |
| d1gital_ | PRabyte: you could reconfigure everything that writes a log to /var/log, or simply bind a directory on sda2 over /var/log | 22:31 |
| djzn | how am I supposed to drag or move icon positions in unity launcher | 22:33 |

| PRabyte | is sda2 writable? fdisk -l show: /dev/sda2 32 60802 488134657 5 Extended | 22:33 |
| ActionParsnip | djzn: long click then drag it up and down | 22:33 |
| PRabyte | d1gital can i mount -t ext4 -o rw /dev/sda2 /mnt/logs ? | 22:33 |
| === matt_ is now known as Prezzo | ||
| IntuitiveNipple | PRabyte: You could make the spare partition(s) a LVM physical volume, and then you have flexibility to assign its space to one or more logical volumes in the future. | 22:33 |
| PRabyte | then put that in /etc/fstab? note, fstab is LVM so many i need to use the lv commands? | 22:34 |
| djzn | ActionParsnip, thanks... it was the LONG click | 22:34 |
| IntuitiveNipple | PRabyte: sda2 being extended means it is the HOST for further logical partitions, usually numbered from sda5 onwards | 22:34 |
| ActionParsnip | deitarion: tried gnome-mplayer | 22:34 |
| PRabyte | /dev/sda1 * 1 32 248832 83 Linux | 22:34 |

| FloodBot1 | PRabyte: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 22:34 |
| ActionParsnip | deitarion: the CPU is more than anything I have :) | 22:34 |
| PRabyte | so i can use lvm cmds to to further partition sda2? correct? | 22:35 |
| === zz_megabitdragon is now known as megabitdragon | ||
| deitarion | ActionParsnip: gnome-mplayer is a frontend. It wraps either mplayer or mplayer2. I'm asking how to hack the package dependencies so it will understand that "mplayer" (working) is an acceptable substitute for "mplayer2" (broken). | 22:35 |
| PRabyte | pv something, i dont remember, havent tried those cmd yets... got a good link/howto? from cmdline | 22:35 |
| PRabyte | d1gital_ how can i "bind" to sda2? | 22:35 |
| deitarion | ActionParsnip: ...really? I have an Athlon64 3300+ that I picked up at the overstock/refurbish/liquidations place for $100. | 22:36 |
| IntuitiveNipple | PRabyte: this is a good guide for understanding partition types for plain disks: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition/OperatingSystemsAndPartitions | 22:36 |
| ActionParsnip | deitarion: if you symlink mplayer2 o mplayer, the 2 commands wil be identical. Is that what you mean? | 22:36 |
| ActionParsnip | deitarion: I have a semperon 3000+ AM2 1.6Ghz, its as powerful as I have | 22:36 |
| PRabyte | IntuitiveNipple: is it cmdline or gui howto? | 22:36 |
| deitarion | ActionParsnip: "mplayer" and "mplayer2" both provide /usr/bin/mplayer. They can't be installed at the same time. However, if you "apt-get install mplayer", it says that removing mplayer2 will break gnome-mplayer (which it doesn't) but that it'll trust your judgement. | 22:37 |
| IntuitiveNipple | PRabyte: If you wanted to turn sda2 into a PV, you would use gparted or fdisk to change its type to "Linux LVM" | 22:37 |
| PRabyte | im going to have programs point not to /var/logs, but directly to dirs in sda2, thats the plan. | 22:37 |
| deitarion | However, since this is to give to someone else, I have to provide a solution that the Update Manager won't try to undo later. | 22:37 |
| ActionParsnip | deitarion: didn't know that, mind you I've not used mplayer2 | 22:38 |
| IntuitiveNipple | PRabyte: I have a LVM just for /var/ of 10GB | 22:38 |
| Bob_Dole | Say I want to deploy multiple computer labs, where every lab will be the same, same users, same permissions, same update behavior, etc., where I can centrally manage them without having to manually update each machine, what could I use for that? | 22:38 |
| deitarion | ActionParsnip: mplayer2 is the default that gets installed in Precise. It's a fork of mplayer that fixes a bunch of things people got tired of waiting for the MPlayer developers to fix. | 22:38 |
| d1gital_ | PRabyte: 'bind' is a mount option for mounting one directory onto another, potentially on different filesystems. I suggested it because I thought sda2 was a physical partition, to which you wanted to write your log files, alongside your home directories, without repartitioning. Creating a new partition under sda2 and mounting it as you describes is probably the best way to go. | 22:39 |
| PRabyte | IntuitiveNipple: is that in fstab? can i take a peek | 22:39 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Bob_Dole: Canonical provide their Landscape package for support customers which is designed for that. | 22:39 |
| PRabyte | this whole UUID stuff is confusing lol | 22:39 |
| IntuitiveNipple | PRabyte: Yes. I have it encrypted too, so at boot-time it gets unlocked, a new dm device created of the unlocked device, and then fstab entry to mount it | 22:39 |
| mik3yb | quit | 22:39 |
| PRabyte | d1gital_: yah im oldschool lol i like just mounting stuff in fstab and rebooting | 22:40 |
| d1gital_ | I have a 2.7GHz Phenom II which is only being detected as 800MHz for some reason.. any ideas? | 22:40 |
| Bob_Dole | IntuitiveNipple, looking that up. I'll see what I think of that. | 22:40 |
| Bob_Dole | thanks* | 22:40 |
| IntuitiveNipple | PRabyte: From the fstab: /dev/mapper/Precise_var /var ext4 defaults 0 2 | 22:40 |
| PRabyte | i dont know if sda2 is encrypted, hmm | 22:40 |
| PRabyte | ah, /dev/mapper, i was wondering where that stuff was stored, UUID is there i suspect | 22:40 |
| IntuitiveNipple | PRabyte: From /etc/crypttab: Precise_var /dev/mapper/Ubuntu-Precise_var_encrypted /media/USB/lockfile luks | 22:40 |

| brennan | IntuitiveNipple, i dont know it that would help me does gnomeppp use pppd? | 23:10 |
| IntuitiveNipple | brennan: At some point underlying it will, but my use on the server is to bring up an ADSL connection across a bridged ATM device | 23:11 |
| brennan | does bridged mean connected? | 23:11 |
| IntuitiveNipple | brennan: no, it means the actual ADSL modem device acts as a bridge passing on the ppp connection to the ISP's servers to establish the link, and effective drops out of the link between ISP and PPP client | 23:13 |
| brennan | IntuitiveNipple, well that sucks that it drops out right? | 23:13 |

| IntuitiveNipple | brennan: as far as the server is concerned, via the interface ppp0, it is connected directly to the ISP and doesn't need to worry about routing via the ADSL device (so doesn't get affected by the ADSL device doing NPAT or firewalling) | 23:16 |

| IntuitiveNipple | L3top: I don't think Oracle/Sun Java is even in the partner repositories any longer | 23:38 |
| ActionParsnip | soulstitchmmo: or just run the installer in terminal | 23:38 |
| robertzaccour | I found it | 23:38 |
| robertzaccour | I've noticed the simplest questions here are the ones that go unanswered. this channel use to be a lot more helpful | 23:39 |
| eucalyptus | agreed | 23:39 |
| L3top | IntuitiveNipple: Absolutely correct. When oracle bought it the lawyered up and forbid its packaging unfortunately. In fact all the PPAs that held it, canonical was forced to revoke keys for a few weeks ago. Sad really. | 23:39 |
| lenny__ | not to mention Oracle can sue you at any time for using their patented Java(tm) API | 23:39 |
| lenny__ | so much for open source | 23:39 |
| ActionParsnip | robertzaccour: then get smart with the OS and you can be part of the solution | 23:39 |
| IntuitiveNipple | lenny__: Only In America (tm) :p | 23:39 |
| lenny__ | yeah | 23:40 |
| ActionParsnip | lenny__: that makes no sense | 23:40 |
| ActionParsnip | lenny__: oracle java is proprietary, so how can you say 'so much for opensource' in the same breath? | 23:40 |
| robertzaccour | ActionParsnip, How bout people help each other whenever possible instead of having the "I only feel like answering super complicated non-noob questions" attitude? | 23:40 |
| IntuitiveNipple | ActionParsnip: It does. In the Oracle vs Google case recently lost by Oracle in USA, Oracle was arguing it owned copyright to the API itself | 23:41 |
| lenny__ | yes it does. suppose you're a company and you're unhappy with JRE so you decide to write something else | 23:41 |
| lenny__ | let's call it Dalvik | 23:41 |
| ActionParsnip | robertzaccour: I answer as many as I can but remember this is a volunteer based support channel, show a little appreciation | 23:41 |
| IntuitiveNipple | robertzaccour: We are here as volunteers, often doing other things for ourselves, and we answer when we spot something we have experience of | 23:41 |
| robertzaccour | ActionParsnip, I do show appreciation, and I also help when I can. | 23:41 |
| ActionParsnip | robertzaccour: and we appreciate the help | 23:42 |
| ActionParsnip | lenny__: the 'so muchfor opensource' doesn't apply to the oracle java as it's not opensource | 23:42 |
| ActionParsnip | lenny__: its that simpl | 23:42 |
| L3top | robertzaccour: You did not mention what distro you were on... and it was just released today fgs. I had no idea, and the first few google hits had nothing. Sorry I didn't know the answer to your question. Care to share it btw in the interest of helping? | 23:43 |
| brennan | I'm just running wvdial (my cousin set it up) but it wont give me a serial port!!! | 23:43 |
| lenny__ | what I meant to say is that even though java is open source, it's still patented by a litigious company | 23:43 |
| IntuitiveNipple | robertzaccour: Often I find that the 'simple' questions are the worst to deal with since it often turns out the person requires lots of handholding for even the basics... things that in person are easy to help them with become long drawn-out and painful via IRC. | 23:43 |
| lenny__ | who employs the same lawyers who brought to you SCO vs Linux | 23:43 |
| ActionParsnip | lenny__: the implementation isn't opensource yes, but oracle suing you etc isn't related to opensource, as it's proprietary | 23:44 |
| === HardFu is now known as HardFu|AFK | ||
| ActionParsnip | !away > HardFu|AFK | 23:44 |
| ubottu | HardFu|AFK, please see my private message | 23:44 |
| lenny__ | ActionParsnip: no. it involves also the open source part | 23:44 |
| ActionParsnip | lenny__: only by proxy | 23:44 |
| robertzaccour | I found it for those that also want to know | 23:44 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Sun released Java under the GPL in 2006 | 23:45 |
| robertzaccour | How to upgrade to KDE version 4.9 http://www.docstoc.com/docs/125657338/KDE-49-Released-Better-Performance-and-New-Features | 23:45 |
| ActionParsnip | lenny__: you could say 'openjdk sucks, so much for opensource' and it would be intelligent | 23:45 |
| L3top | robertzaccour: ty. | 23:45 |
| lenny__ | you do what you want. I'm just saying java was a trap and still is a trap | 23:45 |
| zaphara | can someone help me install the java plugin (NOT the icedtea one) using apt-get? I did it before but forgot how x.x | 23:45 |
| robertzaccour | L3top, yw | 23:45 |
| zaphara | its like java(tm) plug-in 1.7.0_04 | 23:46 |
| ActionParsnip | zaphara: there is a PPA you can use | 23:46 |
| OerHeks | robertzaccour, it will be in 12.10 > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QuantalQuetzal/Alpha3/Kubuntu ( now in kde beta 4.9) | 23:47 |
| ActionParsnip | zaphara: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html | 23:47 |
| robertzaccour | zaphara, http://rootzwiki.com/topic/23008-howto-install-java-7-on-ubuntu-1204/ | 23:47 |
| robertzaccour | OerHeks, I'd rather just upgrade the DE and wait for 12.10 to be released to upgrade anything else. | 23:47 |
| ActionParsnip | robertzaccour: the kde ppa may have 4.9 for precise but its 3rd paryy so use at your own risk | 23:48 |
| L3top | ActionParsnip: A couple of weeks ago I tried webupd8 and it has been shutdown... the gpg revoked... as well as the other 2 I tried. | 23:49 |
| robertzaccour | ActionParsnip, would you recommend just upgrading it to the current alpha? | 23:49 |
| L3top | zaphara: please report if you have success with that. | 23:49 |
| OerHeks | robertzaccour, oh you didn't check backports ? https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/backports | 23:49 |
| ActionParsnip | robertzaccour: i run quantal quite happily | 23:50 |
| ActionParsnip | robertzaccour: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade KDE 4.9 | 23:50 |
| ActionParsnip | L3top: I see, will sort it :) | 23:50 |
| robertzaccour | thanks | 23:50 |
| elfMobile | what is a good video editor available on Ubuntu. I have a bunch of clips of people jumping into a rock quarry on my camera. I'd like to join them into one video but I'd also like to cut out the boring parts where they're just standing there. Pretty simple stuff, so ease of use would be nice. What is available? | 23:50 |
| robertzaccour | I think I'll email myself those 2 links and then upgrade to alpha while I'm workin out and come back to it | 23:51 |
| lenny__ | elfMobile: there's only one. it's Blender | 23:51 |
| L3top | elfMobile: what is your experience level with non-linear video editing? | 23:51 |
| robertzaccour | is there a difference between http://www.docstoc.com/docs/125657338/KDE-49-Released-Better-Performance-and-New-Features and https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/backports? | 23:51 |
| L3top | lenny__: ?? theres kdenlive, cinerella, umm... a couple others that are slipping my memory atm... | 23:52 |
| ActionParsnip | elfMobile: http://techcityinc.com/2009/02/04/top-10-free-video-editors-for-ubuntu-linux/ | 23:52 |
| elfMobile | L3top: none... I used some avs (I think thats what it was called) script a while back.... it was a non-linear programming language for video editing | 23:52 |
| lenny__ | L3top: toys | 23:52 |
| lenny__ | the only one that's functional is Blender | 23:52 |
| L3top | cinerella is the most advanced linux NLE out there IMO. | 23:52 |
| brontosaurusrex | elfMobile, avs is windows, there is unstable port thought | 23:53 |
| lenny__ | cinelerra you mean? | 23:53 |
| elfMobile | lenny__: blender is for 3d modeling isn't it?... I'm dealing with mp4 files from my camera | 23:53 |
| Godgutten | Hi :) | 23:53 |
| L3top | Yes. I am bad with names. | 23:53 |
| jaxdahl | what's a quick way to check for opengl support? | 23:53 |
| lenny__ | no, there's also a video editor in Blender and as I said it's the only one that actually works | 23:53 |
| L3top | mneumonics get me a lot. | 23:53 |

| === BaconAttack_ is now known as BaconAttack_|Foo | ||
| IntuitiveNipple | elfMobile: There's Openshot too | 23:54 |
| elfMobile | brontosaurusrex: yeah.... it would be a pain for this.... finding the rights spot in each video. If I'm just joining and cutting I could use ffmpeg. avs script was fun because it could do other things like slow mo, etc | 23:54 |
| === BaconAttack_|Foo is now known as BaconAttackFood | ||
| brontosaurusrex | brontosaurusrex, i tryed them all at some point or other and they were all huge pain in the ... | 23:55 |
| jaxdahl | pinkie? | 23:55 |
| jaxdahl | funny elbow? | 23:55 |
| * L3top has not had issue editing anything in most editors... some were glitchy... but *cinelerra and kdenlive I encountered no poblems doing extensive editing. | 23:55 | |
| brontosaurusrex | i did not test blender thought | 23:55 |
| lenny__ | when did you last try cinelerra? I'm not sure it even compiles anymore | 23:56 |
| L3top | about a year and a half ago? | 23:56 |
| L3top | was on 1004... I know that. | 23:56 |
| brontosaurusrex | L3top, extensive editing? define please | 23:56 |
| === lucia is now known as raviolicode | ||
| brontosaurusrex | L3top, i did 3 or 4 amateur cuts with kdenlive thought | 23:57 |
