| McClein | hi Andril | 00:32 |
| Andril | got a 12.04 package question | 00:32 |
| OerHeks | McClein, sure, my guess is that backports comes with a newer kernel. | 00:32 |
| W4sp | bintut: Thanks. Looks like tcpdump has Linux specific restrictions. | 00:32 |
| OerHeks | Baneat, i use calibre, all books appear in it nicely. | 00:33 |
| McClein | but i don't want to upgrade the kernel, it worked before | 00:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Baneat: calibre maybe | 00:33 |

| ActionParsnip | Chamunks: sure, its all community based, the factoids are reviewed and added if they are deemed fit etc | 00:56 |

| \Mike | boot issue that makes me stumped: Yesterday I burned two installation discs: Centos and Ubuntu. When I shove the centos disc into the drive of computer A and reboot the computer, it behaves as expected (boots from CD). When I shove the Ubuntu disc in the same drive and reboot, CMOS doesn't recognize the existence of a CD/DVD drive, and doesn't want to boot from there (and won't let me... | 00:58 |
| \Mike | ...choose the DVD drive to boot from as first option - that option is 'disabled'). The Ubuntu disc seems to be fine if I use it in computer B - I can boot from that disc. Where do I start search for the error? | 00:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Chamunks: you may get an op discussing it with you but work together and you can get stuff added | 00:58 |
| zykotick9 | Chamunks: and making a contribution to ubuntu (really Canonical) means your contribution can be used for any reason Canonical deams worthy - including closed source software :( | 00:59 |
| \Mike | Is the error most likely to be in the disc, or the config of computer A? | 00:59 |

| Roasted_ | So... my disk seems to be maxed, citing that I have 0 bytes free on a 140.7GB drive. I ran disk usage analyzer against the entire disk. The biggest bulk of data is in my home directory, with 31.6GB. After that, it filters downward from 214MB, 76MB, 11MB, and even lower. So the biggest, by FAR, is my home dir @ 31.6GB... but it's 140.7GB... maxed... 0 bytes... what's taking up the other ~110GB that disk usage analyzer isn't see | 01:07 |
| Roasted_ | ing? | 01:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Roasted_: have you fsck'd the partitions? | 01:08 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, I have not. just fsck /dev/sda? | 01:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Roasted_: you'll need to do it in livecD if you are booted to that drive | 01:08 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, ehh... if I have to do that now, I can... is there another way to handle it without taking the box offline? | 01:09 |
| ActionParsnip | !fsck | 01:09 |
| ubottu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 01:09 |

| pc | Looking at this IP, can you see any reason why it does not meet the forward/reverse DNS requirement for mail servers? 451- 208.39.251.26 There is a failure in your reverse DNS lookup. | 01:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Roasted_: the partition NEEDS to be offline to be checked | 01:09 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, I understand that. | 01:10 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, I'd just like to avoid taking the box offline if at all possible. | 01:10 |
| Chamunks | ActionParsnip, I sent ubottu this. | 01:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Chamunks: it'll get added in time | 01:10 |
| Chamunks | ActionParsnip, factoid is apt-fast its a tiny script which needs axel, also tiny. This script will allow you to help reduce load on servers and speed up your downloads by splitting the apt-get update loads across many sources available to you. A good ppa to install that works is. https://launchpad.net/~apt-fast/+archive/stable | 01:10 |
| Chamunks | so hopefully that looks decent enough. | 01:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Roasted_: not possible with fsck, maybe others can advise. You may have to odo this in your maintenance window | 01:10 |
| mz|` | pc: 208.39.251.26 what is the domain configured in the mailserver ? | 01:10 |
| Chamunks | it was a quick n dirty post so hopefully it looks decent enough. | 01:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Chamunks: looks good | 01:11 |
| mz|` | pc : does it match AFS-Boise-Static-Customer-208-39-251-26.afsnetworks.com. or not ? | 01:11 |
| pc | mz|`: - Shouldn't matter, shuold it? | 01:11 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, I take it you're pretty certain fsck would fix it up? | 01:11 |
| pc | It's just trying to send mail | 01:11 |
| mz|` | pc : oh yes, you should. | 01:11 |
| mz|` | and ? | 01:11 |
| mz|` | :) | 01:11 |
| pc500 | mz|`: - I don't think so, for example google.com server send for gmail, etc. | 01:11 |
| mz|` | read the RFCs or the man, you will see that there are check on the reverse DNS to prevent attacks | 01:12 |
| mz|` | dear.. | 01:12 |
| pc500 | mz|`: - I thought only a valid rdns and forward must match | 01:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Roasted_: its all I can suggest, are there any similar posts on the forums | 01:12 |
| mz|` | ok give it a try, it will fail, and you will come again | 01:12 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, it just makes me wonder if this is related to the 503 thing I got with subsonic. | 01:12 |
| kieppie | hey guys. anyone familiar with X & VNC? I've popped a new VM running a skinny Ubuntu 12.04, installed XFCE & set up tightVNC on screen :1. If I use virsh to view the VM instance, I can see it, but when I VNC in I can't see the desktop/dm, only the X | 01:12 |
| pc500 | mz|`: - Can you explain to me how people send from mor ethan one domain on a single serer in your case? | 01:12 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, I never got a warning about disk space to think otherwise, but update manager popped up with new updates. As I read through them to see if there was a java update (since that is a likely culprit due to past subsonic posts I read) it popped up with low disk space. sys monitor said 0 bytes. | 01:13 |
| mz|` | pc500: it is not related to the error message sent by pc | 01:13 |
| pc500 | I'm the same person | 01:13 |
| pc500 | the error message is from a recpients server | 01:13 |
| mz|` | yes | 01:13 |
| mz|` | and you did read what it implies ? | 01:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Roasted_: if you run: sudo apt-get clean does it help? | 01:14 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, yep that was it. Deleted a few items and now subsonic is online. Go figure. Now I just need to crack the disk space..... | 01:14 |
| mz|` | so again, what is the domain name configured in the mailserver ? | 01:14 |
| pc500 | "There seems to be a failure in your IP reverse DNS lookup. Your IP address must have a valid reverse DNS entry to send mail to the AT&T domain. Please correct the error or contact your service provider for assistance before trying again. " | 01:14 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, let me try that quick | 01:14 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, er - it didn't seem to do anything (noticable, at least) | 01:14 |
| radiocat | so i'm trying to play a usb turntable through my computer speakers | 01:14 |
| Chamunks | ActionParsnip, I just installed a fresh install of ubuntu 12.04 on a testing machine for testing code between me and some people. | 01:14 |
| radiocat | i can get it to record to audacity | 01:14 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, I take it that it would have been obvious had it done something? | 01:14 |
| mz|` | is the remote server that answers with this error able to do DNS rev. lookups ? | 01:14 |
| epzil0n | sudo touche /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now | 01:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Roasted_: it clears the apt cache, can help | 01:15 |
| Chamunks | ActionParsnip, and i've immediately installed apt-fast and its just screaming thru the stuff at 600kBps (good for my connection) | 01:15 |
| radiocat | and what it told me to link together in jackd just routed it to the internal mic | 01:15 |
| mz|` | if not, he is guilty and admin should ba warned, if not, you have a mailserver configuration issue | 01:15 |
| pc500 | mz|`: - I don't really know -- it's gateway-f1.isp.att.net | 01:15 |
| OerHeks | epzil0n, -e touch | 01:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Chamunks: oh it will max your link | 01:15 |
| mz|` | so, what is the mailserver domain N | 01:15 |
| pc500 | bellsouth.net | 01:15 |
| mz|` | on you mailserver | 01:15 |
| Chamunks | ActionParsnip, I am okay with this. | 01:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Chamunks: ;) | 01:15 |
| mz|` | bellsouth.net has address 216.77.188.73 | 01:15 |
| radiocat | anyone have any idea what to do? | 01:15 |
| Roasted_ | ActionParsnip, I read that you can force an fsck upon startup - would that be an equally acceptable option vs live cd fsck? | 01:15 |
| mz|` | change bellsouth.net by AFS-Boise-Static-Customer-208-39-251-26.afsnetworks.com | 01:16 |
| mz|` | and try again | 01:16 |

I'll try & give you the long schpiel & check for responses.I've created a 12.04 VM with only SSH, no X, and then installed XFCE as a DM & TightVNC as the VNC server, and configured it to autostart as per (http://www.abdevelopment.ca/blog/start-vnc-server-ubuntu-boot). on the "local" host, via virsh, I can startx & interact with the XFCE DM fine, but when I remote connect via VNC on screen :1, I can see the X serve | 01:24 |

| Relondo | How can I remove that darn Thunderbird icon from the system tray? | 01:25 |
| Relondo | SnapSnap: I'd assume you could copy the settings files. | 01:25 |
| SmallR2002 | generally freaking out here, but testdisk seems to be getting results | 01:25 |
| SnapSnap | Relondo: I don't want to go through each file and folder and copy each individual program's settings and config files. | 01:26 |

| ActionParsnip | sankey: you basically want something in /etc/rc.local to make it run, I'd just use a DM and use autologin, lots easier | 01:26 |
| Relondo | SnapSnap: Not sure, then? | 01:27 |

| kieppie | on the "local" host, via virsh, I can startx & interact with the XFCE DM fine, but when I remote connect via VNC on screen :1, I can see the X server interface (grey screen with X mouse cursor), but no DM. So for remote VNC session X is ok, but no DM | 02:00 |

| kieppie | jagginess, histo: I've nailed it! thanks to your guidance. it was a setting in my ~/.vnc/xstartup. in my VNC sessions it would'nt load my ~/.bash* environment, so I asses it to my xstartup | 02:07 |

| lousygarua | kieppie, what did u add to ~/.vnc/xstartup? don't you want something like "source ~/.bashrc" or ". ~/.bashrc" | 02:17 |
| kieppie | hmmm - that probably syntaxicly better | 02:17 |

| Cl0ud_Gazer | ahh.. the supernatural forces can't be smiling all the time ;) | 02:20 |
| histo | kieppie: it should use .bashrc but you also want to probably have an .xinitrc to start XFCE | 02:20 |

| Kemi | ya du monde | 02:23 |
| histo | thebananafish: what are you using for your vm softwar? | 02:23 |
| kieppie | histo: what's odd is that ~/.bashrcis loaded when I SSH into the VM, but not on the VNC terminals themselves..... | 02:23 |

| kieppie | nor does it load the ~/.bashrc when I SSH to 127.0.0.1 | 02:24 |
| thebananafish | and working | 02:24 |
| thebananafish | the vm can ping hosts on my lan, but my lan hosts cannot ping the vm | 02:24 |
| histo | thebananafish: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Networking/ you need to follow the bridged section | 02:24 |
| kieppie | yea - it's a NAT issue @ KVM | 02:24 |
| kieppie | thebananafish - are you connected via NAT or br0? | 02:25 |
| thebananafish | br0 got that all working right | 02:25 |
| kieppie | thebananafish - yea, but is your VM actually using it? | 02:25 |
| kieppie | also, could be guest firewall or some IP tables shenannigans | 02:26 |
| thebananafish | yeah, its online and has a IP from my dhcp server its updating windows right now | 02:26 |
| kieppie | is the guest IP in the same range as the rest of your LAN? | 02:27 |
| kieppie | including subnet? | 02:27 |
| thebananafish | yep | 02:27 |
| thebananafish | woop, figured it out | 02:27 |
| thebananafish | win2k3 had the initial setup thing open that blocks all inbound connections | 02:27 |
| thebananafish | had nothing to do with linux | 02:27 |
| thebananafish | thanks | 02:28 |
| histo | kieppie: I don't know how you have the vnc setup to login automatically but that is most likely your problem. | 02:28 |
| kieppie | histo: I have no doubt it's related, but atm the VNC portion works great (as documented) - it's just the environment that's hinky | 02:30 |
| histo | kieppie: I would recomend following official documentation or asking people on the site for the article you are following. | 02:31 |
| kieppie | yea….. miht have to do that | 02:32 |
| kieppie | just seems odd. | 02:32 |
| kieppie | thought it would be a bash -thing | 02:32 |
| kieppie | that /bin/bash in term auto-loads ~/.bashrc, irrespective of the source: unprivelaged VNC user or unprivelahed SSH user | 02:33 |
| Calahan | Any other than lynx, links, links2 shell browsers? | 02:34 |
| kieppie | w3m i think | 02:34 |
| kieppie | try `apropos browser` | 02:34 |
| chu | Yeah, w3m | 02:34 |
| sailboatofdoom | Noob question, but what is Nautilus? Is it the file browser GUI within Ubuntu? | 02:34 |
| kieppie | or (if .deb) `apt-cache search browser` | 02:34 |
| kieppie | sailboatofdoom - file manager | 02:35 |
| Calahan | kieppie ok i will | 02:35 |
| kieppie | like "explorer" in windows | 02:35 |
| sailboatofdoom | Ahh okay. Thanks. I was reading up on how to mount Google Drive in Ubuntu and Nautilus was mentioned. | 02:35 |
| sailboatofdoom | Makes sense now | 02:35 |
| histo | Calahan: w3m elinks | 02:36 |
| sailboatofdoom | I ditched Windows completely and have been using Ubuntu for the past month | 02:36 |
| sailboatofdoom | loving it | 02:36 |
| kieppie | sailboatofdoom - nautilus would be the base, & then you can add plugins to it for the various providers, like google drive, ubuntu one, dropbox, etc | 02:36 |
| sailboatofdoom | Cool thanks kieppie | 02:37 |
| luckysmack_ | I have a Diamond Xtreme Sound 7.1 24 bit that I can't seem to get working. Does anyone know how I can get the sound card to work? | 02:37 |
| kieppie | sailboatofdoom - good on ya. it's a good move, but I advise you, as a new user, to just keep a VirtualBox with windows in spare, in case you need something in a pinch. Wine & WebMin will also greatly ease your transistion | 02:38 |
| histo | !webmin | kieppie | 02:39 |
| ubottu | kieppie: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. | 02:39 |
| Calahan | so ridiculus | 02:41 |
| kieppie | histo - really? didn't know that. still make use of it quite a bit, actually & certainly eases a lot of pain. I always recommend it to newcomers, as it helps a lot with gettingover simple but demoralising hurdles (Samba being one example) | 02:41 |
| Calahan | only client works for me is lynx which is so ugly | 02:41 |
| histo | kieppie: Just please don't recomend it in here | 02:41 |
| chu | Calahan: They're text browsers, they're all going to be ugly. | 02:42 |
| kieppie | histo - oh, ok. I'll try to keep that in mind | 02:42 |
| histo | Calahan: w3m using vim key bindings might be a little unfamiliar. elinks supports frames pdfs etc... | 02:43 |
| sailboatofdoom | Bummer, I guess you can't "officially" access Google Drive via Nautilus as of yet, but Google is working on it. | 02:43 |

| _skpl | can someone tell me how to install flash on my computer? | 02:44 |

| histo | sailboatofdoom: http://www.zimbio.com/Ubuntu+Linux/articles/gVdrI310RS3/Access+Google+Drive+Ubuntu | 02:44 |
| sailboatofdoom | Chrome is the best way to go | 02:44 |

| Calahan | histo i have to log in some php form where i have to enter login and password i try all listed clients only one who with which i can log is lynx | 02:45 |
| histo | sailboatofdoom: you still have to install flash in chrom | 02:45 |
| histo | Calahan: don't really have a fix forya | 02:45 |
| histo | Calahan: outside of using X | 02:46 |
| Calahan | don't even know how to solve this probabbly need to install GUI | 02:46 |

| Calahan | histo i have headless 12.04 server any link to tutorial how to install minimum GUI? I assume i could ruin it trought vnc or somth, have to admit i not very experienced with this. | 03:01 |
| agentgasmask | Calahan: Why do you need a GUI? | 03:01 |
| Calahan | cause i cannot use from shell web browser nromaly, only one which works for me was lynx other didnt support login forms nromaly | 03:02 |
| histo | Calahan: you can forward X apps via ssh on another linux machine | 03:02 |
| agentgasmask | Calahan: I use elinks with good success. Have you tried that? | 03:02 |
| histo | agentgasmask: I already recomended elinks and w3m as alternatives for him | 03:03 |
| agentgasmask | histo: oh, I just joind the channel and don't have scroll back. Sorry for stepping on your toes. :) | 03:03 |

| === Zeroedout_ is now known as Zeroedout | ||
| histo | Calahan: if you install xauth and whatever X based app you want you should be good. I'd recomend forwarding the X apps via ssh to another machine then you don't need X on the server | 03:04 |
| chu | I don't believe w3m supports (for instance) javascript. Not sure what would be needed. | 03:04 |
| agentgasmask | Calahan: with elinks, you have to hit the down arrow after typing your username to get to the password box without sending the page early. | 03:04 |
| agentgasmask | histo: wow, that would work? I just assumed that the x app would have all the x stuff as dependencies. Cool if it works. :) | 03:05 |
| histo | agentgasmask: the apps would pull anything else they need but xauth is the big one for no X11 server | 03:06 |

| con-man | so unity has a cube plugin? i dont need compiz for the cube? | 03:07 |
| xangua | con-man: unity+cube=bad idea | 03:08 |
| con-man | but I heart the cube? | 03:08 |
| con-man | so I should use compiz? | 03:08 |
| xangua | heart? love? | 03:08 |
| con-man | ya | 03:08 |
| Bigbird | you can get the effect to install compiz-config | 03:09 |
| con-man | yes that is what I use currently compiz | 03:09 |
| con-man | but it's glitchy with unity | 03:09 |
| Bigbird | but the unity + cube maybe works not well | 03:09 |
| histo | con-man: Nothing or no one is making you use unity. You can pick whatever DE you want. | 03:09 |
| xangua | con-man: again. unity+cube=really bad idea | 03:10 |
| con-man | why is that? | 03:10 |
| histo | con-man: for exactly the issues you are experiencing is why | 03:11 |
| Bigbird | con-man: you can try it | 03:12 |
| con-man | so what is the benefit of unity? | 03:12 |
| Bigbird | and if get errored,just remove the usr setting in your home dir | 03:12 |
| con-man | could I disable it and keep the cube? | 03:12 |
| Bigbird | I have tried to use cube+untiy and felt trouble,then gived up | 03:14 |
| histo | con-man: Yes you can use whatever Desktop environment you want. There are tons to chose from that's the beauty of open source. | 03:17 |

| histo | Chamunks: should be -x as well | 03:24 |
| ZugZug_ | thx histo | 03:25 |
| histo | Chamunks: so byobu -r to resume a session if it's detached. If another use wants to view an attached session they can byobu -x to connect to it. Or they can byobu -D to detach then -r to reattach | 03:25 |

| isaac_ | When a monitor isn't connected, ubuntu doesn't want to set the resolution higher than 640x480. This is very inconvenient as I use it to VNC into and do stuff. Is there a way to force a higher resolution without a monitor? Thanks | 04:11 |

| sccy | Hello all. I am new here. Got a question to ask the experts. | 04:27 |
| jhojho | hello. so which channel do I join to request changes to a precise package? | 04:27 |
| jhojho | its only a compile flag difference so not a big change | 04:27 |
| sccy | I bought a pandaboard with ARM. It has an Innolux A70 touchscreen by default setup. It originally runs on Qtopia, until I have recently installed Xubuntu 0910. Things works fine except the display looks wrong. The resolution is wrong and the display is offset. I think there isn't a proper display driver installed. I am just wondering if there are anyways, I can find the appropriate driver or get the screen displaying correctly? | 04:29 |
| bazhang | sccy, try a supported version such as 12.04. 9.10 is end of life | 04:30 |
| deadlyninja | i have 2x 1.5tb drives and 2x 3tb drives, is it possible to use mdadm to combine the 2 1.5tb drives and use them as parity for the 3tb drive raid? | 04:30 |
| sccy | OK, and I hope the driver list has expanded to cover the driver I want. | 04:30 |
| sccy | Thanks, bazhang. | 04:31 |
| sccy | There is one more question though. In order to install Xubuntu/Ubuntu on my device. I need to have an ext3 format of the OS. Do I need to compile that myself or can I get/download it from anywhere? | 04:32 |
| snow__ | why u need ext3 | 04:33 |

| G__81 | or is it mandatory that i got to upgrade to 12.10 once its released ? | 05:18 |
| G__81 | The reason being i have some irritating bugs that i see in Unity and hence want to know if there are updates which would be rolled out for 12.04 (especially in Unity) and would i get to run the version of Unity that would be available in 12.10 ? | 05:19 |
| hateball | G__81: Well being that it's an LTS you could probably expect some bugfixes, as long as they dont require a version upgrade | 05:21 |
| wilee-nilee | G__81, So let me see if I understand this you have a idea that updates at all will fix your problem and you are relying on answers here to prop that up. | 05:23 |

| somsip | G__81_: It wasn't my comment to you. I was just echoing it for you. If you're on 12.04 you will get 12.04 updates. If you want 12.10 updates, you need to run 12.10. There may be a PPA that backports 12.10 updates to 12.04 but YMMV | 05:36 |

| Gallomimia | hola amigos. has anyone here ever tried to mount a buffalo NAS drive (via samba) on a ubuntu machine? The wiki about perma mounting shares suggests the buffalo drives need a non utf character set of some kind.. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently some advice would be appreciated | 06:14 |
| J1SP | * I don't see the ubuntu logo on startup it shows up as a big white block on a black backround | 06:14 |

| Gallomimia | hmm | 06:17 |
| teek_ | Hi! | 06:17 |
| timfrost | J1SP: What happens if you remove/disable the proprietary driver? I used to prefer the proprietary driver, but the nouveau driver seems more stable for me on 11.10 and 12.04 | 06:17 |
| Gallomimia | how are you | 06:17 |
| teek_ | good gallominia :) | 06:18 |
| teek_ | thank you | 06:18 |
| J1SP | how do I remove it timfrost ? | 06:18 |
| J1SP | I am fairly new to ubuntu | 06:18 |
| J1SP | the computer boots up but I can't go down to command line without it showing correctly | 06:19 |
| teek_ | Is there anyone here who is possibly familiar with Squid? | 06:19 |
| Gallomimia | ssh in | 06:19 |
| J1SP | it worked fine in ubuntu 10.04 | 06:19 |
| Gallomimia | squid the proxy? | 06:19 |
| teek_ | Gallomimia: Yes | 06:19 |
| Gallomimia | ah, not particularly. wish i was more versed in using it. might install it on my network | 06:20 |
| teek_ | I can't even get it to install correctly. It ignores the options I put when I go to configure it before compiling. | 06:20 |
| teek_ | If there's anyone out there that has any experience that could help I'd be so grateful. | 06:21 |
| moment | hey guys i have some problems on lucid. i was using proprietary graphics drivers that suddenly stopped working after i updated ubuntu, so i wanted to uninstall and reinstall them. the newer proprietary drivers don't seem to work though so i wanted to install the open source ones. problem is that for some reason they're gone from system->administration->hardware driver... they were there just two minutes ago when i uninstalled the f | 06:21 |
| AzzIzzA | teek_: just ask your question, squid is a rather large program, are you after performance tuning, NTLM integration, reverse proxying? | 06:21 |
| moment | and now i have no graphics drivers and compiz isn't working or anything | 06:21 |
| === bhavesh is now known as bhavesh1234 | ||

| === bhavesh1234 is now known as bhavesh | ||
| teek_ | I can't even find the program no matter what I set the --prefix too | 06:22 |
| timfrost | J1SP: 'System Settings-> Additional Drivers'. For 12.04, there are several options (I get a list of at least 4, all of which are disabled). If any of them are active (green icon), then select that version and click 'deactivate'. Warning: you are probably going to be required to reboot to finish this. | 06:22 |
| AzzIzzA | teek_: can you pastebin what you are doing, and the results? | 06:23 |
| J1SP | I don't have additional drivers. | 06:24 |
| J1SP | timfrost | 06:24 |
| mrtn474 | how do i reset what i've done with compiz? | 06:25 |
| timfrost | J1SP: can you pastebin the output of 'dpkg -l nvidia\*' ? | 06:25 |
| histo | mrtn474: look for it's hidden config file in your /home/mrtn474 directory and delete it | 06:25 |
| J1SP | ok | 06:26 |
| Gallomimia | oh i managed to get that samba share mounted thanks if you read my question | 06:26 |
| teek_ | okay I downloaded the tarball, I unpackaged it. | 06:26 |
| histo | teek_: you know squid is in the repos | 06:26 |
| J1SP | timfrost http://pastebin.com/USeb4xjn | 06:26 |
| mrtn474 | and then i can simply uninstall it? | 06:26 |
| teek_ | histo: repos? | 06:26 |
| histo | teek_: sudo apt-get install squid3 | 06:27 |
| Gallomimia | teek_: pretty sure it needs to be installed deeply into the system. not sure about putting it where you want | 06:27 |
| histo | !info squid3 | teek_ | 06:27 |
| ubottu | teek_: squid3 (source: squid3): Full featured Web Proxy cache (HTTP proxy). In component main, is optional. Version 3.1.19-1ubuntu2 (precise), package size 1401 kB, installed size 3692 kB | 06:27 |
| teek_ | ugh....too much x.x | 06:27 |
| Gallomimia | heh. yeah use a packaged version. it'll be great | 06:27 |
| mrtn474 | histo: i siimply want to do this to fix it. i want to follow some instructions to installing ccsm again because it's kinda buggy. | 06:27 |
| Gallomimia | going to install it myself right now :D | 06:27 |
| histo | mrtn474: probably somewhere in the .compiz directory if that exists if nto look in the .config directory | 06:27 |
| teek_ | I don't understand the difference in repos and tarballs of the newest compilations | 06:28 |
| histo | !repo | teek_ | 06:28 |
| ubottu | teek_: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/project/about-ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 06:28 |
| histo | teek_: you are downloading a tarball and trying to install from source. When you can just use ubuntu's software manager to install the package from the repos or repositories | 06:28 |
| teek_ | ugh x.x | 06:28 |
| mrtn474 | okay, i'll do that, thanks :D | 06:29 |
| teek_ | I'm sorry now I am getting so confused this has me agitated. | 06:29 |
| histo | teek_: I would recomend installing software from the software center or via apt-get unless you need some bleeding edge version that you can only get from source | 06:29 |
| histo | teek_: what questions do you have there are people here to help. | 06:29 |
| teek_ | what's wrong with having the newer version? | 06:29 |
| jhojho | hello. so which channel do I join to request changes to a precise package? it would be a compile flag change only | 06:29 |
| Gallomimia | teek_: the command given above: sudo apt-get install squid3 | 06:29 |
| Gallomimia | will install squid for you inside 2 minutes | 06:30 |
| J1SP | timfrost http://pastebin.com/USeb4xjn | 06:30 |
| histo | teek_: it may be the same version as the one in the repos. But I always say if it aint broke don't fix it | 06:30 |
| teek_ | so okay...I should use the repo version | 06:30 |
| teek_ | That's what I'm getting here | 06:30 |
| AzzIzzA | teek_: that is the wrong way to look at it, there is a version which has been expertly tested and set up to work well with your system. The correct approach is "What does the newest version offer which outweighs those benefits?" | 06:30 |
| teek_ | ohhh....thank you azz okay | 06:30 |
| histo | teek_: the version on the squid site is 3.1.20 and the version in the repos is 3.1.19 unless you need some feature that .20 provides I would just use the repo version if you aren't familiar with building from source | 06:31 |
| timfrost | J1SP: You do have a version of proprietary nvidia drivers - ' ii nvidia-173' identifies a binary NVidia driver package. If the X display isn't ideal, try 'sudo apt-get remove nvidia-173' | 06:31 |
| teek_ | okay so unfortunately I already tried doing this with 3.1.20.... | 06:31 |
| teek_ | am I able to just run the repo script and install over it? | 06:32 |
| J1SP | what do I do after that timfrost ? | 06:32 |
| histo | teek_: also on the squid site they offer a binary version. You could download a .deb from there and just double click to install it in the future. | 06:32 |
| histo | teek_: how far did you get with the downloaded tarball? | 06:32 |
| histo | teek_: actually there site even recomends sudo apt-get install squid3 if you are on a debian based system | 06:33 |
| teek_ | I downloaded it, unpackaged, configured and make install and now can't even find it | 06:33 |
| timfrost | J1SP: You then need to reboot to get splash and X both using the nouveau driver interface | 06:33 |
| teek_ | okay histo | 06:33 |
| histo | teek_: try going to the directory and sudo make uninstall\ | 06:33 |
| histo | teek_: sorry type sudo make uninstall | 06:33 |
| teek_ | okay I will | 06:33 |
| teek_ | doing that now | 06:33 |
| histo | hopefully they have uninstall scripts | 06:34 |
| histo | teek_: also do you know what squid does and are you sure you need it? | 06:34 |

| teek_ | my understanding is that I need to first configure it, set up caches, | 07:23 |

| monkers | devices do (sdb and sdd). I can run partprobe and that updates the kernel so that /dev/ shows the partitions, but, i'm still not able to assemble the array, mdadm complains about a missing superblock. So.. i'm lost. I don't think anything on the drives are damaged. | 08:23 |

| gancar | Hi, my Windows XP is saying "NTLDR is compressed- Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart"; my guess it is compressed so it won't start up. I've run Ubuntu off of a bootable image disc at the moment in order to retrieve my files. I am about to reinstall my entire OS; is it possible to have XP and Ubuntu on the PC. (please forgive me as I'm too 'techie' | 08:29 |
| Gallomimia | so i recommend taking a breath :) | 08:29 |
| jen | what does .jar mean? | 08:29 |
| gr33n7007h | jen, java file | 08:30 |
| Gallomimia | gancar yes it is. it uses a program called grub to select between them | 08:30 |
| Gallomimia | jar=java arcive | 08:30 |
| lotuspsychje | gancar:loose the windows and install ubuntu alone ; ) | 08:30 |
| jen | ths is making my head spin | 08:30 |
| Gallomimia | voldyman: the login was failing because your user account did not have access to read its own home directory or any of the config files used in booting up | 08:30 |
| gancar | lotuspsychje: I would, and Ubuntu is OK, but I've been used to Windows for 10 years + | 08:30 |
| Gallomimia | jen: that's the fun part about linux! :D | 08:30 |
| jen | errrm, so how to I open something after I have extracted it and I have a folder for it. (the folder for the software is in my downloads) | 08:30 |
| lotuspsychje | gancar:time to get a secure and free Os mate | 08:31 |
| gancar | Gallomimia: Is that easy to do? | 08:31 |
| jen | Gallomimia, its a pain in my rear end | 08:31 |
| Gallomimia | gancar: usually the ubuntu installer will set it up perfectly for you | 08:31 |
| voldyman | jen, pain is in the mind. | 08:31 |

| lotuspsychje | stueng: apache index? | 08:37 |
| Gallomimia | some say ooobuntu | 08:37 |
| voldyman | jen,do you have java runtime installed? | 08:37 |
| jen | voldyman, im sure I do why | 08:37 |
| gancar | Gallomimia: I say oobuntu | 08:37 |
| stueng | lotuspsychje, what? | 08:37 |
| jen | im a n00b. I was pushed into using linux and don't know POOP | 08:37 |
| voldyman | jen, you need java installed to run flowpaint. | 08:37 |
| Gallomimia | there's no need to install packages. jen it sounds like you're almost there. you have a terminal window open? | 08:37 |
| gr33n7007h | jen, Did you type: bash flowpaint.sh | 08:38 |
| jen | Gallomimia, yess | 08:38 |
| lotuspsychje | stueng:you want to host an ubuntu mirror on an index website? | 08:38 |
| Gallomimia | flowpaint is a java program, ergo it needs to java to run | 08:38 |
| jen | ermm how about chibi paint | 08:38 |
| Gallomimia | go into the flowpaint bin directory and type ls -l | 08:38 |
| jen | hold on | 08:38 |
| stueng | lotuspsychje, no.. all I want is a local copy of the mirror for netinstall purposes on my LAN | 08:38 |
| jen | Gallomimia, wat | 08:38 |
| voldyman | jen, open software center and search java and install it | 08:38 |
| Gallomimia | sounds to me like the shell script is executable by default so just run ./flowpaint.sh from that directory | 08:39 |
| jen | I tried that T_T | 08:39 |
| voldyman | Gallomimia, the shell script runs the jar and jen doesn't have java installed | 08:39 |
| Gallomimia | oh | 08:39 |
| Gallomimia | apt-get install java? | 08:39 |
| jen | i have java up the ying yang | 08:39 |
| voldyman | i think software center method is best for jen | 08:40 |
| Gallomimia | well then. what happens when you run flowpaint.sh | 08:40 |
| stueng | just type java at the console and see what the response is | 08:40 |
| gr33n7007h | jen, apt-get install openjdk-6-jre | 08:40 |
| Gallomimia | shhhhh settle down you're scaring her | 08:40 |
| jen | i have java, i just looked it up | 08:40 |
| stueng | that will soon tell you if you have java | 08:40 |
| lotuspsychje | stueng:not sure i follow you correclty mate..just host an ubuntu iso for lan to be able to download? | 08:40 |
| Gallomimia | what stueng said si the wisest first | 08:40 |
| jen | i fail | 08:41 |
| gr33n7007h | jen, if you have java then --> java -jar flowpaint.jar should work | 08:41 |
| Gallomimia | open a terminal and type java | 08:41 |
| Gallomimia | see what it says | 08:41 |
| Gallomimia | or even better is which java | 08:41 |
| stueng | lotuspsychje, I want a local copy of the mirror on my LAN so that netinstall clients can install directly from this mirror rather than accross the internet. I would rather do this way than booting from ISO because the mirror is always up to date | 08:41 |
| jen | Unable to access jarfile flowpaint.jar | 08:41 |
| Gallomimia | permissions problem | 08:42 |
| gr33n7007h | jen, are you in the directory of flowpaint.jar | 08:42 |

| e66 | When I do sudo apt-get upgrade I see its fetching data from security.ubuntu.com not the local mirror. but for other packages other than security packages it fetches from local mirror. I am directly connected to the local mirror in our country. So way too fast. But when it comes to security update its slow. how can I fix this? | 08:55 |
| forecle | say | 09:01 |

| llutz_ | thufir_: it will get the missing files then. and yes, apt-get upgrade will use already downloaded debs | 09:14 |

| thufir_ | and it's "ok" to interrupt it while it's downloading? even turn the pc off? | 09:15 |
| llutz_ | thufir_: it shouldn't harm | 09:15 |
| thufir_ | awesome, thanks. | 09:15 |
| thufir_ | oh, it will see that package "x" was already downloaded, so it won't re-download "x" again, will it? | 09:16 |

| strugglingTom | hi. i just attempted to install ubuntu on my macbook pro, and just after editing the main partition of the Macintosh HD i decided i should reboot and research it a bit more. mac can't identify filesystem. currently sitting in GParted on ubuntu live cd - what should i do? | 10:19 |
| MonkeyDust | wavm i have a pc similar to your friend's, works fine here, fast swift | 10:19 |
| manitu | hello.. a friend got a problem with google earth.. (as far as i know he should be using ubuntu 10.04 LTS).. he installed google-earth from the deb, its 6.2 from the website | 10:19 |
| joonty | does anyone have an nvidia card with Ubuntu? and have it working well? | 10:20 |
| extrasolar | lots of people do | 10:20 |
| manitu | here is the errorlog: http://nopaste.info/fa7e2eb085.html | 10:20 |
| extrasolar | and yes, many people agree it works well | 10:20 |
| joonty | i've heard that nvidia are not good at providing up to date drivers | 10:20 |
| Nika_1 | !LIST | 10:21 |
| ubottu | Nika_1: No warez here! This is not a file sharing channel (or network); read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot ». If you're looking for a channel, see « /msg ubottu !alis ». | 10:21 |
| manitu | i googled much but because i don't work much with ubuntu, i don't want to try to install any graphics drivers.. so i just need to ask here | 10:21 |
| Dr_Willis | ati and nvidia always can do better.. | 10:21 |
| MonkeyDust | wavm my advice: first try a live session to get to know it, then install it, should take about 15-20 minutes | 10:21 |
| extrasolar | you will pronbably need to install some drivers | 10:21 |
| joonty | yep i've got 295.40, and unity crashes + many compiz features are broken :( | 10:22 |
| strugglingTom | anyone had experience installing ubuntu on a macbook pro? | 10:22 |

| MonkeyDust | r0csteady start from the beginning, what were you doing before you came here | 10:47 |
| joonty | wookienz, very strange - do you know when it started happening? | 10:47 |
| wookienz | i think i tried to install tcptraceroute even though it wasnt supported (possibly) | 10:47 |

| wavm | whats another program like poweriso for ubuntu? | 10:48 |
| r0csteady | Before I came here, I did not know what to do so I had put the project aside. Basically, in order to get the config file /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.cupsd to work in production (for our cups printer service) we had to add two lines of code to it. | 10:49 |
| wavm | where i can mount iso files | 10:49 |
| smartboyhw | wavm: Ubuntu can mount ISOs naturally | 10:49 |
| r0csteady | We are running the service on lucid. | 10:49 |
| smartboyhw | !iso | 10:49 |
| ubottu | To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 10:49 |
| Hassan_Lebanon | hi | 10:49 |
| r0csteady | In order to investigate the issue I installed lucid and cups on a different server, and ran a diff on the default config against the one we have on production. | 10:49 |
| wavm | really? cool | 10:49 |
| smartboyhw | Did someone read my question? | 10:49 |
| r0csteady | It was a project that was given to me by one of the guys I work with at the college. | 10:50 |
| r0csteady | Apart of that project was to file a bug on launchpad regarding the apparmor changes from the default. | 10:51 |
| strugglingTom | if i have edited a partition via ubuntu live cd, but not formatted it, can i still access the data in that partition somehow | 10:51 |

| joonty | wookienz, it looks like there's a potentially relevant answer at http://askubuntu.com/questions/140246/how-do-i-resolve-unmet-dependencies | 10:56 |
| strugglingTom | MonkeyDust: Mac HD had a single 500GB partition, and not thinking, I 'edited' it, thinking I could split off ~20GB to install Ubuntu on. Didn't check 'format', though. Then decided that I should really re-read the guides so I exited, and now OS X won't boot | 10:56 |
| joonty | it could be something to do with the sources you have enabled | 10:56 |

| wavm | what does ! this do when u guys type it? | 10:56 |
| wavm | !help | 10:57 |

| joonty | wookienz, what about enabling restricted and universal sources? | 10:57 |
| r0csteady | MonkeyDust: Does it sound like a bug to you? | 10:57 |
| MonkeyDust | strugglingTom and dealing with the GF is the hardest part, i understand... well, it sounds like a mac data recovery issue, try asking in a mac channel | 10:57 |
| r0csteady | Or a request for additional software? | 10:57 |
| strugglingTom | thanks mate :) | 10:58 |
| r0csteady | Or is there more information that is required for a solution? | 10:58 |
| mirak | hello | 10:58 |
| MonkeyDust | r0csteady doesnt sound familiar | 10:58 |

| fidel | strugglingTom: consider using the boot-camp-assistant to create a new partition for your second os | 10:59 |
| wookienz | joonty, i think i went to the traceroute home page and downloaded at woody version .deb file and dpkg'd it there. | 11:00 |
| r0csteady | okay, maybe I will ask in ubuntu-bugs | 11:00 |
| r0csteady | ty | 11:00 |
| wookienz | any ideas wher to go from there? | 11:00 |
| fidel | thats the way apple would like its users to create new partitions -> mainly for windows ...but it should be ok for the partitioning part of the job. regarding repairing the current issue - ##mac might be a better place | 11:00 |
| wookienz | Joonake, or i compiled it. | 11:00 |
| wookienz | joonty, or i compiled it | 11:00 |
| joonty | wookienz: dare i say dpgk -r tcptraceroute? | 11:01 |
| wookienz | you may, there's no installed package matching txptraceroute | 11:01 |
| wookienz | tcp | 11:01 |
| joonty | lol | 11:01 |
| joonty | nothing with tab-completion? | 11:01 |
| Jonny1 | mirak: It sounds like you want to print a picture full bleed (right up to the edge of the paper). Is that right? | 11:02 |
| wookienz | yes it is ther with TAB completion - but it then says not there | 11:02 |
| mirak | Jonny1: yes | 11:02 |
| joonty | hmm ok | 11:02 |
| wookienz | joonty, dpkg: warning: there's no installed package matching tcptraceroute | 11:02 |
| hasan | hasan | 11:03 |
| Jonny1 | mirak: As far as I know, it can't be done. It's a physical limitation of printing devices that they can't print right up to the edge of the paper. Commercial print shops do it by printing on oversize paper and then trimming off the edges | 11:03 |
| joonty | wookienz, try dpkg --search traceroute | 11:05 |
| joonty | that gives package names on the left | 11:06 |
| wookienz | will do... /var/lib/dpkg/status file shows status as "install ok unpacked", not install ok installed as the others | 11:06 |
| Frostbyte | 12.04LTS hangs at the dot-loading screen instead of properly shutting down, where can I find the log / how to troubleshoot this? | 11:06 |
| mirak | Jonny1: no that's not my issue, my printer can really print on the edge | 11:07 |
| wookienz | joonty, --search shows where it is... it is there..... | 11:07 |
| om26er | Frostbyte, are you fully upto date? | 11:07 |
| Jonny1 | mirak: I seem to remember something about ignoring printer margins in the page setup of some DTP packages, probably Scribus. This means they can generate a full bleed print file. But then the printer would need to be able to print to the edges. | 11:07 |
| om26er | Frostbyte, i mean do you have all the updates installd? | 11:07 |
| Frostbyte | yeap, and I run the update manager every now and then | 11:08 |
| mirak | Jonny1: it can print borderless, it's a canon mg8250 | 11:08 |
| joonty | wookienz, interesting. looks like it's not actually installed, but the deb file is unpacked...? | 11:08 |
| wookienz | joonty, "/usr/bin/tcptraceroute" is what comes of the search command | 11:08 |
| wookienz | yeah that would make sense | 11:08 |
| om26er | Frostbyte, did it start happening after any update? | 11:08 |
| joonty | wookienz, maybe try apt-get clean? | 11:08 |
| Frostbyte | om26er: when I first installed the system, it worked ok - my server started doing it nowadays | 11:08 |
| Jonny1 | mirak: Fair enough. Try changing the page setup in the application you are using to print with. You could maybe try printing from Gimp or Scribus as I think they give you more control over the printed output | 11:09 |
| joonty | wookienz, weird - that suggests it is installed! | 11:09 |
| Frostbyte | can't recall, but I assume so - where can I find the log responcible for this? | 11:09 |
| Jonny1 | mirak: Failing that, try changing the printer properties or preferences in system settings | 11:09 |
| wookienz | joonty, clean does nothning. still same error | 11:09 |
| joonty | wookienz, hate to say it but I'm out of ideas | 11:10 |
| wookienz | and yes suggests it is installed but the dpkg database doesnt know it is there... or something like that | 11:10 |
| mirak | Jonny1: yep my issue is that if my picture is 16/9 then it will not fit a 6"x4" picture, so I can have white borders, or I can zoom a bit and crop the sides or the up/bottom | 11:10 |
| om26er | Frostbyte, might be related https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+question/156381 | 11:10 |
| om26er | Frostbyte, comment#3 there might help you, can you try? | 11:11 |
| Frostbyte | om26er: Sure, gimme sec | 11:12 |
| mirak | Jonny1: i can't find the print system properties | 11:12 |
| wookienz | i foudn some files in /var/lib/dpkg/info/ related to tcptraceroute. - i have deleted them - see what it thinks now.. | 11:12 |
| joonty | hehe if in doubt, rm -r | 11:12 |
| wookienz | hehe | 11:12 |
| joonty | rm -rf / | 11:12 |
| wookienz | what could possibly go wrong! | 11:12 |
| Jonny1 | mirak: I'm not sure what you are trying to do then. Do you want to change the aspect ratio of you picture to fit the paper when you print it? Fair enough if that's what you want to do but then I think your pictures will look squashed. You can scale images non-symetrically in Gimp if that's what you want to do | 11:12 |
| wookienz | says he who borked his computer this morning for a bad command in fstab | 11:13 |
| Frostbyte | om26er: FATAL: Module rt2860sta not found. | 11:13 |
| wookienz | bah still there! | 11:13 |
| joonty | nuts | 11:13 |
| om26er | Frostbyte, which system is that? | 11:13 |
| mirak | Jonny1: any way the issue is that there is a zoom slider in the print properties, however it's maxed to some percentage, and then you can't go beyond this. you just can't reduce the zoom, you can zoom out but not zoom in | 11:13 |
| DJones | joonty: Don't suggest that, somebody may try it just to see what it does | 11:13 |
| joonty | DJones: good point | 11:13 |
| Frostbyte | om26er: you mean what installation or hardware? | 11:13 |
| om26er | Frostbyte, yes, hardware | 11:13 |
| joonty | DJones: they would need to sudo it though | 11:13 |
| Jonny1 | mirak: Which application are you trying to print from? | 11:13 |
| mirak | Jonny1: no I don't want to change aspect ratio, I just want to crop parts of the image | 11:14 |
| mirak | Jonny1: zooming in should allow to do that, but the print properties only allow to zoom out. Maybe you can check yourself and see if you have this as well | 11:14 |
| Jonny1 | mirak: You could crop the image in gimp and then print to fit | 11:14 |

| mirak | Jonny1: just give the name of the application | 11:17 |
| mirak | I mean the executable | 11:17 |
| om26er | Frostbyte, which graphics card you use? is it nvidia or the build in gma? | 11:18 |
| Jonny1 | mirak: Gimp has a lot of control over printing including printing at scales greater than 100% and ignoring page margins. Maybe just try printing from gimp | 11:18 |
| Frostbyte | om26er: VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV710 | 11:19 |

| om26er | Frostbyte, i am now sure how to precede here but my guess is it could be the ati driver if you have installed it causing the issue | 11:22 |
| om26er | :/ | 11:22 |
| Jonny1 | mirak: Install if from the software centre or synaptic or sudo apt-get install gimp | 11:23 |
| Frostbyte | om26er: is it related to the failling instalation of the proprietary driver? iirc, one package out of the two fails on jockey | 11:23 |
| Jonny1 | mirak: Or if it's already installed but not in your menu try editing your applications menu. There is some good guidance on the web how to do that | 11:24 |
| om26er | Frostbyte, you could try removing the driver in jockey | 11:24 |
| Frostbyte | om26er: I may also add that this mostly happens when I "shutdown now" from putty. Yes, second, gonna rd to my box | 11:24 |
| mirak | Jonny1: it's the same in gimp, as I already tried, I can zoom out wich is useless since the picture will be smaller than the picture paper, and I can't zoom in to make the picture bigger than the papper or print just a part of the picture | 11:26 |
| mirak | Jonny1: there is a zoom option also where we can choose the number of page to print, but I can't preview the result | 11:26 |
| Frostbyte | om26er: I see that none of the drivers are activated, wtf.. I already had it installed, if I recall correctly | 11:27 |
| Jonny1 | mirak: Hold on while I try it | 11:27 |
| Jonny1 | mirak: If you want to preview it, try printing to pdf | 11:27 |

| om26er | Frostbyte, could i suggest, you ask a question here: http://askubuntu.com/ | 11:29 |
| om26er | Frostbyte, you are most likely to get a solution there | 11:29 |
| Frostbyte | om26er: I also noticed that my screen wouldn't turn on, if I left the pc idle for long periods of time - so you must be right, I'll try to reactivate the drivers. if that doesn't solve the problem, I'll follow your second advice | 11:29 |
| Frostbyte | Many thanks :) | 11:30 |

| jrib | davis776: what version did you have before? | 11:41 |
| davis776 | 12.04 | 11:41 |
| jrib | davis776: do you have automatic updates enabled? 12.04.1 is just a point release of 12.04. It's regular updates to 12.04 but given a name so that an install cd can be made and people won't have to update so many packages after an initial install of 12.04 | 11:42 |
| BluesKaj | Hiyas all | 11:43 |
| davis776 | jrib, no, i dont... so maybe it came with some package I updated yesterday | 11:43 |
| jrib | davis776: if you ran updates then that would bring you up to 12.04.1 | 11:44 |
| davis776 | jrib, okay thanks! | 11:44 |
| jrib | davis776: just keep in mind it's not the same as an upgrade between versions like 11.10 to 12.04, it's just 12.04 with some updates to 12.04 | 11:45 |

| BluesKaj | ashley88323, ^ | 12:49 |
| TJ- | ashley88323: OK, well that's a way to get to a text console so you can log-in and check the log files. They live in the "/var/log/" directory. I'd suggest looking at "/var/log/kern.log" and "/var/log/syslog" for clues... | 12:49 |

| BluesKaj | ashley88323, the BIOS screen has the computer brand with some other keys to for help etc , it pops up right after you boot the pc | 12:58 |
| ashley88323 | Ok - got that. So go in there and look for grub - then what | 12:59 |
| W4sp | /part #cwm | 12:59 |
| TJ- | WhereIsMySpoon: Do those login shells ask you for your password? | 12:59 |
| phunyguy | So on all of my Ubuntu workstations I am noticing an anomaly. /usr/bin/X seems to start spiking the CPU after a little while. Is this a known issue? | 13:00 |
| BluesKaj | you hold the left shift key down as soon as that screen disappears , ashley88323 , until the grub menu with the OS kernels listed , choose the recover y kernel | 13:00 |
| ashley88323 | Ok - got it - will try that now | 13:00 |
| phunyguy | it is currently using an entire core... | 13:00 |
| TJ- | WhereIsMySpoon: Man bash "If Bash is invoked as sh, it tries to mimic the behavior of sh as closely as possible. For a login shell, it attempts to source only /etc/profile and ~/.profile, in that order. " | 13:01 |
| TJ- | WhereIsMySpoon: I have all my aliases defined in ~/.bash_aliases and I have that file sourced from both .bashrc and .profile so both styles of log-in pick it up | 13:02 |
| dysoco | OK, se arreglo | 13:05 |
| dysoco | pero creo que cada vez mas voy odiando Ubuntu | 13:05 |

| ubottu | En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y presione intro. | 13:05 |
| dysoco | damn, sorry, wrong channel -.- | 13:06 |
| dysoco | crap | 13:06 |
| joonty | the ubuntu bot knows spanish? | 13:07 |
| joonty | that's freaking awesome | 13:07 |
| WeThePeople | can i password protect my computer ie. wep or wpa(2) at a motel using wifi | 13:08 |
| MonkeyDust | WeThePeople wep-wpa belongs to the wifi signal, not to your pc | 13:08 |
| acicula | WeThePeople: wep/wpa is something that is enabled on the accesspoint, no way to change that from your pc | 13:08 |
| joonty | WeThePeople, do you mean can you encrypt the data you send or receive over wifi? | 13:08 |
| phunyguy | WeThePeople: if you mean protecting your traffic that goes in and out, probably not, unless you set up a VPN to home, and proxy through that | 13:08 |
| ThinkT510 | WeThePeople: wouldn't that depend on what wifi the motel offered | 13:08 |
| joonty | hehe | 13:08 |
| phunyguy | ...like I do at work. | 13:09 |
| phunyguy | so I can look at questionable material. | 13:09 |
| WeThePeople | joonty, yes | 13:09 |
| phunyguy | =D | 13:09 |
| islandmonkey | joonty: ubottu: Ingleas? | 13:09 |
| islandmonkey | ubottu: Ingleas? | 13:09 |
| ubottu | islandmonkey: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 13:09 |
| cecil | hi | 13:10 |
| joonty | WeThePeople the only way would be to use only https sites or VPN into another network | 13:10 |
| WeThePeople | joonty, would it be possible to ssh to the motel wifi? | 13:11 |
| phunyguy | !bot | islandmonkey | 13:11 |
| ubottu | islandmonkey: Hi! I'm #ubuntu's favorite infobot, you can search my brain yourself at http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi | Usage info: http://ubottu.com/devel/wiki/Plugins | Bot channels and general info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots | 13:11 |
| islandmonkey | phunyguy: Yes I know how to use ubottu :) | 13:12 |
| phunyguy | apparently... ;) | 13:12 |
| joonty | WeThePeople it doesn't work like that - WiFi is produced from a router, which (as far as I know) never has ssh access | 13:12 |
| MonkeyDust | WeThePeople you ssh to a computer, not to a protocol | 13:12 |
| joonty | you can ssh while using wifi, if that's what you mean? | 13:12 |
| phunyguy | WeThePeople: what yuo are trying to do is probably beyond the scope of this channel. | 13:12 |
| MonkeyDust | WeThePeople what do you want to do or achieve? | 13:13 |
| TJ- | WeThePeople: You can configure a reverse SSH proxy to a public-accessible server so your PC can SSH to it from anywhere and then route all traffic through the encrypted SSH channel to the remote, where it would be routed as normal | 13:13 |
| phunyguy | yeah what TJ- said | 13:13 |
| phunyguy | it is a simple ssh with port forward | 13:14 |
| wrapids | I've recently gotten ST2. I opened a new window (two window instances), closed it and upon opening it again it opens two windows. If I close out of either of them it terminates the program. I opened a third window this morning to see what it would do, and now I have the same problem with three windows. | 13:14 |
| WeThePeople | monkeydust, protect the information being sent and received from my computer at a motel using its wifi signal | 13:14 |
| WeThePeople | people suggest using a vpn | 13:14 |
| rtr | where I can find a full doc for linux ? | 13:14 |
| ThinkT510 | rtr: does not compute | 13:14 |
| joonty | lol ThinkT510 | 13:15 |
| phunyguy | WeThePeople: /usr/bin/ssh -f -N -D 0.0.0.0:80 {public ssh server} | 13:15 |
| TJ- | WeThePeople: openvpn is a great tool for easily configured secure connections | 13:15 |
| phunyguy | then point your browser at localhost:80 or something | 13:15 |
| phunyguy | via proxy | 13:15 |
| WeThePeople | phunyguy, thanks | 13:16 |
| phunyguy | I googled that btw... ;) | 13:16 |
| phunyguy | =D | 13:16 |
| WeThePeople | lol | 13:16 |
| joonty | rtr: are you looking for api documentation? | 13:16 |
| WeThePeople | sometimes i think that there are professionals hangin around these channels | 13:17 |
| wrapids | lol, professionals :p | 13:17 |
| joonty | yeh that's a funny thought | 13:17 |
| linux | fuck | 13:17 |
| wrapids | linux: ikr? | 13:18 |
| joonty | erm, i'd rather not | 13:18 |
| wrapids | please? | 13:18 |
| joonty | it's a public place - very public according to the number of users | 13:18 |
| phunyguy | WeThePeople: some of us are, just we don't work for Canonical ;) | 13:18 |
| WhereIsMySpoon | TJ-: i dont have a .bash_aliases, should i just make one? | 13:19 |
| phunyguy | yes | 13:19 |
| MonkeyDust | WeThePeople if you're from Occupy Something: wifi is never completely safe | 13:19 |
| wrapids | I was thinking maybe it was my window manager, but nothing other than sublim does that. | 13:19 |
| WhereIsMySpoon | TJ-: even putting them in .bash_aliases didnt work | 13:20 |

| |REM| | Hi everyone. I have an issue pinging the 1 ubuntu box I have on the network through our openvpn tunnels. I can ping it locally just fine but not through the tunnel. This was working fine until about a month ago. I can ping every other ip through the tunnels so I am wondering if there was an update that changed something on the ubuntu box. Any ideas? | 13:28 |
| us12 | hello. can anybody help me with network in ubuntu? I have router in brige mode but cant use internet in ubuntu((( | 13:28 |
| Ashley88323 | Hi BluesKaj - at the grub menu (and here on irc on my I iPad) | 13:29 |
| Ashley88323 | I've got four options | 13:29 |
| Ashley88323 | Plus the chance to edit commands or have a command line | 13:29 |
| BluesKaj | Ashley88323, choose "repair broken packages" | 13:32 |
| Ashley88323 | BluesKaj - that option isn't there | 13:33 |

| vicium\a | Would you reccomend ubuntu 11.04 or 12.04 and x64 or x86 for a ECS? with 2 cores 8 gb ram etc etc ~ | 13:53 |
| vicium\a | I assume 12.04 x86? | 13:54 |
| MonkeyDust | vicium\a 12.04 is the latest and it is LTS | 13:55 |
| ActionParsnip | vicium\a: 12.04 is LTSand supported long after 11.10 is EOL and even after Quantal (12.10) is EOL | 13:55 |
| AzzIzzA | vicium\a: x64, not x86 unless you want to be stuck using only 3GB of that RAM | 13:55 |
| vicium\a | But i've heard rumors x64 just gives alot of issues? | 13:55 |
| ActionParsnip | AzzIzzA: the default Ubuntu kernel is PAE, giving access to 64gb RAM | 13:55 |
| ActionParsnip | vicium\a: none at all, 64bit is extremely catered for | 13:56 |
| AzzIzzA | ActionParsnip: Fair enough | 13:56 |
| Pici | Only 4GB per process though. | 13:56 |
| MonkeyDust | vicium\a rumors | 13:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Pici: indeed ;) | 13:56 |
| vicium\a | Okay, so even if i run applicatioons that only supports x86 | 13:56 |
| vicium\a | It still runs as smooth in x64? | 13:56 |
| ActionParsnip | AzzIzzA: each process will only see 4Gb RAM but the full RAM will be usable | 13:56 |
| WeThePeople | actionparsnip, does any linux distro utilize 64gb ram? | 13:56 |
| vicium\a | With the 32bit library? | 13:56 |
| === core_ is now known as core | ||
| MonkeyDust | vicium\a what do you want to achieve, what brings you here? | 13:56 |
| senyb | what is an ECS? | 13:57 |
| ActionParsnip | WeThePeople: sure, the kernel can access up to 64Gb RAM in 32bit and theoretically up to 4Eb in 64bit | 13:57 |
| vicium\a | I want to decide what dist to pick before ordering my ECS... | 13:57 |
| zaggynl | so I'm setting ubuntu server edition as a nas | 13:57 |
| vicium\a | And i dont know so much myselves so I came here for expertise | 13:57 |
| Ashley88323 | BluesKaj, no change - login screen has red x instead of icons and the desktop is black with black emptyi icons down the side | 13:57 |
| zaggynl | is it silly to use the ubuntu-desktop package to create shares and all that | 13:57 |
| vicium\a | Elastic cloud server senyb VPS-ish | 13:57 |
| iceroot | vicium\a: the distro you can handle best | 13:57 |
| MonkeyDust | vicium\a and what is ECS? | 13:58 |
| zaggynl | config files and current server gui tools aren't as refined | 13:58 |
| iceroot | vicium\a: please dont host public servers if you dont have GNU/Linux knowledge | 13:58 |
| vicium\a | They're private | 13:58 |
| vicium\a | :) | 13:58 |
| ActionParsnip | zaggynl: you could just install openssh-server and use SFTP, you don't need a desktop for a NAS | 13:58 |
| zaggynl | well yeah | 13:58 |
| iceroot | vicium\a: a private cloud? | 13:58 |
| zaggynl | that too | 13:58 |
| extrasolar | man | 13:58 |
| ActionParsnip | zaggynl: or install samba and configure samba via /etc/samba/smb.conf | 13:58 |
| zaggynl | I could tell the folks that are going to use the nas to suck it and just use WinSCP | 13:59 |
| extrasolar | I so badly want to get involved | 13:59 |
| extrasolar | more | 13:59 |
| zaggynl | smb.conf gives me a headache | 13:59 |
| vicium\a | I was just wondering if i can run x86 apps usiung x64 as smooth as in x64 ubu | 13:59 |
| vicium\a | So I should refrain from even using ubuntu? | 13:59 |
| BluesKaj | Ashley88323, hmm, lots of errors definitely indicates a faulty install , IMO | 13:59 |
| Jonny1 | Is it possible to rip a CD and listen to it at the same time? | 13:59 |
| TJ- | ActionParsnip: actually, an amd64 CPU usually only has 48 address lines to address 256TB. The idea is to save having the plumbing for 16 address lines that will rarely be needed. | 13:59 |
| ActionParsnip | zaggynl: I can give the lines to setup a share if its too hard for you.. | 13:59 |
| vicium\a | So no new user should EVER use ubutu iceroot? | 13:59 |
| vicium\a | I have to start somewhere? :S | 13:59 |
| zaggynl | sure you can, but I'd like to do it by gui | 13:59 |
| iceroot | vicium\a: no new users should administrate a public swerver | 13:59 |
| zaggynl | create groups, assign folks to groups, assign groups to shares | 13:59 |
| iceroot | vicium\a: open spam relay and other things will be the result | 14:00 |
| ActionParsnip | zaggynl: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1148827/ that's ALL it is. | 14:00 |
| zaggynl | linux cannot do multiple groups per file/folder, so access lists, ugh, or nested permissions | 14:00 |
| vicium\a | I'm just going to use it for myselves anyway | 14:00 |
| vicium\a | With the exception of a mumble-server | 14:00 |
| iceroot | zaggynl: sure you can have multiple groups per file/folder | 14:00 |
| vicium\a | Which is passworded.. I dont see how my expertise has anything to do with it | 14:00 |
| vicium\a | Yes my server is in a cloud (?) | 14:00 |
| zaggynl | iceroot: how? | 14:00 |
| extrasolar | what mailing lists are people subscribed too here? | 14:00 |
| Ashley88323 | I agree - the update I did seems two have mangled things. | 14:00 |
| iceroot | zaggynl: posix acls (see "man setfacl") | 14:00 |
| zaggynl | right, access lists | 14:01 |
| Ashley88323 | How best to remove and do a clean reinstall? | 14:01 |
| vicium\a | But fine, I'll refrain from using ubuntu since its clearly not catered to new users, stupid logic but whatever | 14:01 |
| zaggynl | ActionParsnip: what permissions should I set on the /home/andy/Downloads folder? | 14:01 |
| iceroot | vicium\a: are you a troll? | 14:01 |
| ActionParsnip | Ashley88323: boot to install media, format the storage partitions and install to the space | 14:01 |
| rtr | wich program is best for web design for begginers ? | 14:01 |
| vicium\a | No you're incredibly rude, just saying | 14:01 |
| ActionParsnip | zaggynl: depends on what access you want to give | 14:01 |
| iceroot | vicium\a: i said, dont host a public reachable server if you dont have GNU/Linux knowledge | 14:01 |
| TJ- | zaggynl: If you enable ACLs on a file-system you can do multiple groups/users (mount option "acl") and use {get,set}facl | 14:01 |
| iceroot | vicium\a: that has nothing to do with ubuntu | 14:01 |
| MonkeyDust | rtr try Kompozer | 14:01 |
| ActionParsnip | zaggynl: that is MINE, yours will be different. Think about it | 14:02 |
| zaggynl | well yeah | 14:02 |
| theadmin | zaggynl: Stuff under your home directory is typically 775 or 774, with you as the owner and the group | 14:02 |
| zaggynl | hmm okay | 14:02 |
| nb-ben | i am stuck on the loading screen for xubuntu, is there a hotkey to leave it to see what it does in text? | 14:02 |
| ActionParsnip | zaggynl: so you more than likely won't have a /home/andy/Downloads folder, will you? | 14:02 |
| WeThePeople | rtr, kompozer is free in the software center | 14:02 |
| iceroot | vicium\a: without knowledge people are doing mostly very insecure things (chmod 777, running everything as root, open mail relay) | 14:02 |
| vicium\a | iceroot: You do realise that (internet estimation) half of the new ubuntu users comes from the very same position im sitting in? | 14:02 |
| senyb | nb-ben : ctrl+f1 | 14:02 |
| zaggynl | ActionParsnip: sure thing ;-) | 14:02 |
| vicium\a | I wouldnt run anything as root... | 14:02 |
| Ashley88323 | ActionParsnip - was hoping to use the windows installer that partitioned the drive for me that worked fine when I first installed | 14:02 |
| vicium\a | that what sudo is for :p | 14:02 |
| nb-ben | senyb doesn't work :p\ | 14:02 |
| iceroot | vicium\a: i am talking about public servers, not desktop systems | 14:03 |
| ActionParsnip | zaggynl: think, then type | 14:03 |
| MonkeyDust | vicium\a start with a regular, easy installation, if you want to get familiar with ubuntu | 14:03 |
| zaggynl | ActionParsnip: did I make a mistake somewhere | 14:03 |
| vicium\a | And no im not a troll, i just had a couple of question, sorry guys | 14:03 |
| vicium\a | ill stick to win 2008 server | 14:03 |
| iceroot | vicium\a: try to learn GNU/Linux first before putting a public server on the line | 14:03 |
| vicium\a | Still not a public server........ | 14:03 |
| iceroot | vicium\a: a server in the cloud is public | 14:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Ashley88323: oh wubi, you can use programs and features / add and remove programs in Windows and remove wubi, then redownload the Ubuntu ISO, mount it then rerun the wubi installer | 14:03 |
| MonkeyDust | vicium\a start with the desktop, not with the server, guess you didnt start with windows server, either | 14:04 |
| iceroot | vicium\a: because the server has a public-ip | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip | zaggynl: you asked what permissions you should have on /home/andy/Downloads when you probably won't even have one. | 14:04 |
| vicium\a | fair enough | 14:04 |
| Ashley88323 | Ok a thanks ActionParsnip | 14:04 |
| zaggynl | ActionParsnip: ah, just taking it as an example | 14:04 |
| zaggynl | goign by your smb.conf, I'd use something similar | 14:04 |
| === Dimitr|2 is now known as Dimitr | ||
| ActionParsnip | zaggynl: just make folders you want to share and make an entry like the one I pastebinned for each folder you want to share, you can set the access lists in the lines (see pastebin again). | 14:05 |
| zaggynl | okay | 14:05 |
| ActionParsnip | zaggynl: you can then run: sudo smbpasswd -a username and make samba users which users can use to authenticate with | 14:05 |
| ActionParsnip | zaggynl: not hard, plus you will be able to manipulate the shares using SSH and be able to add and remove shares at will in a sleek way | 14:06 |
| ActionParsnip | zaggynl: you will also be able to manipulate any Linux server OS as the skills are generic, so are tranferrable | 14:06 |
| zaggynl | ActionParsnip: thanks, was looking at the lubuntu-desktop "Samba Server Configuration" tool, which asks for a Unix username when creating a user | 14:07 |
| zaggynl | But that isn't needed when manually users? | 14:07 |

| nones_king | Fuck all | 14:09 |
| theadmin | Netham45: You might need the grub-efi package and run grub-install manually | 14:09 |
| nones_king | hehehehe | 14:09 |
| MonkeyDust | alien2 compiz? guess you can change that in ccsm or in myUnity | 14:09 |
| Netham45 | theadmin, Well, will the installation ISO boot off of EFI? | 14:09 |
| theadmin | Netham45: I'd think so | 14:09 |
| nones_king | Bay ..... | 14:10 |
| Dr_Willis | alien2: could be you are using unity2d also | 14:10 |

| alien2 | right now I am on Ubuntu | 14:13 |
| ActionParsnip | alien2: the Ubuntu option uses Compiz and is 3d | 14:14 |
| vexus | Netham45: at the Moment you have to do it with console and it is not realy easy on the frist try i life with Biosemulationlayer install because it works better and easer this time | 14:14 |
| bobweaver | alien2, wht is the output of ps aux | grep unity pastebinit please | 14:14 |

| brucelong | I have a question | 14:19 |
| bobweaver | alien2, that is why you are falling back to Unity 2d it is a save messure | 14:19 |
| alien2 | and how can I fix this? | 14:19 |
| vexus | Netham45: then use gpt but you have to make the efi partion on your own or mount the other one from the windows hdd but the only linux which make it realy itself with full efisupport is Opensuse 12.1 if you want Ubuntu 12.04 you have to setup all on your on with chroot and console mom there was an article on ubuntuuser or so if you like | 14:19 |
| bobweaver | alien2, it is best to test these things what is output of lspci -nn | grep VGA | 14:19 |
| brucelong | when i installed ubuntu the last time windoiwswould not shut down properly | 14:19 |
| brucelong | when I installed ubuntu the last time windows would not shut down properly | 14:20 |

| loconut | so, I have a bluetooth adapter and a bluetooth A2DP receiver.. I was just in sound settings for my bluetooth a2dp receiver (Ubuntu 12.04) and accidentally set sound mode from A2DP to off.

| bobweaver | you should now have 2 tabs open correct | 14:45 |
| bobweaver | alien2, ^^ | 14:45 |

| ActionParsnip | ThinkT510: multicore systems show usage like that, its dumb | 14:46 |
| bobweaver | alien2, now this is imporant that you rember that key combos ok becuse you are going to loss dektop for a min or two and only have terminal ok | 14:46 |
| islandmonkey | ThinkT510: It isn't for multi-core systems | 14:46 |

| ubottu | To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » (this currently may cause problems with multiarch) - See also !automate | 16:05 |

| BluesKaj | MichelFP, did you see my post above about raid? | 16:18 |
| MichelFP | wN: reading | 16:18 |
| crlcan81 | I've already asked this once, and instead of actually being told how to properly take care of the issue I was told to pick a different desktop shell. Frankly any other I've used I don't like, and I've used all the ones available for Ubuntu 10.04. I just don't like gnome panel. Don't know how but I've actually gotten it to shut off once before, but don't know how I did it. Can someone just tell me how to make sure it doesn't restart? I use | 16:19 |
| crlcan81 | the glx aspect of cairo dock, since honestly it provides just as much if not more with better features. | 16:19 |
| wN | MichelFP: is your raid hardware raid or software? | 16:19 |
| MichelFP | hardware | 16:19 |
| terse | Hi, all. Whenever I kill wpa_supplicant it spawns again with new PID.. How can I figure out what is causing this?? maybe some process tree viewer?? | 16:19 |
| talsamon | hello, i have no 1280 x 1024 resolution ?? ubuntu 12.04, | 16:19 |
| wN | MichelFP: i believe the links above were relating to software raid | 16:20 |
| cdavis | talsamon: You might need to install a restricted driver | 16:20 |
| wN | MichelFP: i may have missed your original problem. what trouble are you having? | 16:20 |
| ikonia | MichelFP: is it hardware raid on your motherboard | 16:20 |
| physically_fit | Hotot is awesome | 16:20 |
| BluesKaj | MichelFP, if you have more than 2 HDDs and you're installing ubuntu on it's own drive then , grub should install on that drive in / . also run sudo update-grub to load the windows mbr link into grub | 16:20 |

| crlcan81 | Is there anyone who can tell me how to disable gnome-panel from starting? All I find online is removal of the package, hiding the panel, but leaving it running, or trying a different desktop enviroment on Ubuntu. I've tried all the desktop shells out there, and Gnome is the only one I like, the only thing I don't like is panel. As I said once before I use glx dock implimentation of cairo dock. No other shell has provided that kind of usabi | 16:44 |
| crlcan81 | lity, plus I'm used to gnome anyways. | 16:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Emi: what is the outpt of: lsb_release -sc | 16:44 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: could add a startup item to run: killall gnome-panel | 16:44 |

| crlcan81 | ..it restarts. | 16:45 |
| ffisch | ok, rebooting again | 16:45 |
| ActionParsnip | cloudgeek: backtrack isn't supported here | 16:45 |
| ActionParsnip | cloudgeek: it;s supported in #backtrack-linux | 16:45 |

| crlcan81 | I've tried killing gnome panel repeatedly, and in all honesty it just keeps restarting. | 16:45 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: then you need to configure it to not | 16:45 |
| cloudgeek | ActionParsnip: I am saying that , I am not using back-track linux , read my paste carefully i am using 12.04 | 16:46 |
| merck | bekks: so whats the general form of development? Code on a laptop or something and then push code to the server using something like github | 16:46 |
| ActionParsnip | cloudgeek: then why mention it? | 16:46 |
| bekks | merck: Code on a developers machine, test it on a test server, fix bugs, deploy it on a testing environment machine, fix bugs, deploy it on a production machine. | 16:47 |
| cloudgeek | ActionParsnip: becasue of wicd , that come deafult on backtack-linux , not with ubuntu i need to install it | 16:47 |
| ActionParsnip | cloudgeek: what backtrack has installed as default is irrelevant... | 16:48 |
| bobweaver | cloudgeek, because backtrack needs to turn of wireless and backtrack was also started as kde | 16:48 |

| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: I CAN READ LOWER CASE TOO | 17:00 |
| crlcan81 | How many times do I have to repeat myself? | 17:00 |
| crlcan81 | You guys just keep telling me the same stuff I've already found myself, or can't access. | 17:00 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81:some people have said to simply rename the gnome-panel binary, should work | 17:00 |
| uffs | besides, I can't get it working through each of those advices | 17:00 |
| agoodm | is there a method for fixing the truncated dns issue on 12.04 when the host has a large amount of records? | 17:00 |

| crlcan81 | You've 'helped' me on a few things before, and when it comes to gnome-panel, honestly all you guys keep giving me the same damn information, over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. | 17:01 |
| crlcan81 | Which DOES NOT HELP | 17:01 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, whas it tg3 or tn3? | 17:01 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: no, how many people on this particular issue, right now? | 17:01 |

| crlcan81 | I'm getting sick of it. | 17:02 |
| superbbbfab | i'm not able to configure playonlinux | 17:02 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: again, how many people are helping you with your gnome-panel issue right now? | 17:02 |
| crlcan81 | Currently you, but again, it's not really help if your'e telling me the same shit I can find on my own, which does not actually HELP. | 17:02 |
| superbbbfab | wine desktop default is too small | 17:02 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: so where do 'you guys', come from when it is ONLY me? Can you explain that please.... | 17:02 |
| crlcan81 | I'm not just talking RIGHT NOW | 17:02 |
| uffs | so it's a bit of progress, but the led is still orange (off, that is) | 17:02 |
| ActionParsnip | superbbbfab: make it bigger in winecfg | 17:02 |
| crlcan81 | I've had multiple people in the same channel, here, at various times, all tell me the same shit, WHICH DOES NOT HELP | 17:03 |

| mz|` | we can not replace all brains, there. | 17:03 |

| superbbbfab | hi action, i m not able can you help me? | 17:04 |
| crlcan81 | Again it's not help if you're just leading me in giant circles. | 17:04 |
| uffs | on ubuntu 12.04 | 17:04 |
| piglet3 | exit | 17:04 |
| crlcan81 | Which you guys have, over all the times i've tried to get help. | 17:04 |
| ActionParsnip | DPJ_NA: then you are using a 3rd party source. I suggest you contact the PPA maintainer | 17:04 |
| crlcan81 | Which isn't quickly, it's over HOURS. | 17:04 |
| jazzkovsky | fidel: ty | 17:04 |
| uffs | stop this cunt-off, will you | 17:04 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, sudo sh -c "echo "tg3" >> /etc/module.d/blacklist.conf" | 17:04 |
| ffisch | ok | 17:05 |
| crlcan81 | And not only that, this wouldn't even BE an issue, I'd be on 12.04 even though I can't stand Unity, if the alc 887 and 888 bug didn't exist. | 17:05 |
| DPJ_NA | ActionParsnip: I am not sure what that means | 17:05 |
| ffisch | gr33n7007h: so blacklist it and then do modprobe bnx2 and then dhclient eth0? | 17:05 |
| ActionParsnip | DPJ_NA: you aren't using the ubuntu version, you have added a PPA to get a different issue and it is causing the issue | 17:05 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: you don't have to use unity in 12.04 | 17:06 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, no | 17:06 |
| DPJ_NA | ActionParsnip: of PHP? | 17:06 |
| crlcan81 | ....... | 17:06 |
| ffisch | oh what do i do then? | 17:06 |
| crlcan81 | It's the least problamatic for me. | 17:06 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: you can install Xubuntu and it's not even install, nor is it installed in Kubuntu 12.04, nor is it installed in Lubuntu 12.04 | 17:06 |
| ffisch | after blacklisting | 17:06 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, then do: echo 'bnx2' | sudo tee -a /etc/modules | 17:06 |
| mz|` | or use i3wm. | 17:06 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, after blacklisting | 17:07 |
| crlcan81 | I've tried ALL of the different available shells for Ubuntu, Unity is the one I hate the least. Just as Gnome is the one I have the least issues with. | 17:07 |
| ActionParsnip | DPJ_NA: you have the php53.dotdeb.org ppa enabled. I suggest you use ppa-purge and remove it | 17:07 |
| crlcan81 | Considering the ONLY issue I have is not being able to keep gnome-panel shut off, that's saying something. | 17:07 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: if you install Lubuntu you can kill lxpanel and it will not respawn | 17:07 |
| crlcan81 | Again, I've tried all the different shells, and I DON'T LIKE THEM | 17:07 |
| mz|` | crlcan81: ever tested awesomeWM or i3WM ? or enlightenment (e17) ? all ? | 17:08 |
| crlcan81 | .... | 17:08 |
| crlcan81 | yes I've used them. | 17:08 |
| ffisch | gr33n7007h: so like this? http://pastebin.com/QL9Gsz6q | 17:08 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: if you are killing lxpanel it won't be the shell | 17:08 |
| crlcan81 | all of them. | 17:08 |
| mz|` | ok, go for windows ! | 17:08 |
| mz|` | :) | 17:08 |
| crlcan81 | I've done e16 though, because 17 is still too developmental for... | 17:08 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, yes | 17:08 |
| crlcan81 | Why do you think I'm ON Ubuntu? Because I normally use windows but I currently can't | 17:08 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, then reboot you linux box | 17:08 |
| ffisch | gr33n7007h: rebooting ;-) | 17:08 |
| crlcan81 | Ubuntu is my desktop, Windows is my gaming OS | 17:08 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: if you use lubuntu, kill lxpanel and launch the dock or whatever you use it will be the same | 17:09 |
| crlcan81 | No it won't | 17:09 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: what you use gaming is irrelevant | 17:09 |
| ffisch | gr33n7007h: oh and after rebooting what? | 17:09 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: why do we care what you use Windows for, or that you even have it installed? | 17:09 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, dhclient eth0 | 17:09 |
| ffisch | dhclient eth0? | 17:09 |
| crlcan81 | I've used lxde and it is NOT the same as Gnome. | 17:09 |
| ffisch | ok | 17:09 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: how is it of value to your issue | 17:09 |
| ffisch | brb | 17:09 |
| ffisch | i'll tell you what happpens | 17:10 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, kk | 17:10 |
| crlcan81 | It isn't, I was pointing out to MZ that I DO use Windows | 17:10 |
| BluesKaj | ffisch, use sudo | 17:10 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: so why mention it? | 17:10 |
| crlcan81 | Because MZ did | 17:10 |
| Guest60273 | ActionParsnip, WOW take a chill pill buddy | 17:10 |
| TJ- | crlcan81: From what I read, a residual gnome-panel can be caused by having something like wingpanel installed - it uses gnome-panel | 17:10 |

| agoodm | anyone got a fix for the truncated dns issue in precise? | 17:10 |
| superbbbfab | someone can help me with playonlinux? | 17:10 |
| ActionParsnip | agoodm: tried a different DNS server? | 17:11 |
| crlcan81 | If I'm a gamer, what reason would I have to use Ubuntu if I had the option to use Windows? | 17:11 |
| crlcan81 | Seriously? | 17:11 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: so why is using LXDE and loading the dock different? | 17:11 |
| TJ- | agoodm: you have a bug reference for that? | 17:11 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: LXDE is coded using GTK, so you can run all your Gnome apps without issue | 17:11 |
| crlcan81 | Commands, menus, the LOOK. | 17:12 |
| agoodm | AcidRain2012, I modified ubuntu so it didnt use its internal dnsmasq as it was slower than my local resolver... my local dns server resolves the addresses fine for other clients | 17:12 |
| agoodm | TJ-, yes sec | 17:12 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: but all you are using is the dock, so it will look the same | 17:12 |

| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: then you are stoping yourself from getting the desktop functionality you desire for the sake of a look, I have no other advise | 17:13 |
| crlcan81 | because when I ran it the 'theme' for the windows and such, metacity in gnome, not sure what in lxde, do not look the same. | 17:13 |
| ActionParsnip | crlcan81: your call dude | 17:13 |
| crlcan81 | Well when that 'look' allows me to SEE things properly, it sure DOES matter. | 17:13 |
| crlcan81 | I use a white on black, because black on white is harder on my eyes. | 17:14 |
| crlcan81 | That may seem like a small thing, but when you can't see that well, it sure becomes pretty big. | 17:14 |
| crlcan81 | Even now, with glasses, what is being typed here sometimes gets fuzzy. | 17:14 |

| gr33n7007h | ffisch, echo "tg3" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf > /dev/null | 17:21 |
| ActionParsnip | BluesKaj: no idea, i was just getting what the user wanted to achieve | 17:21 |
| ffisch | BluesKaj: ??? | 17:21 |
| ffisch | I only have one NIC | 17:21 |
| ffisch | and its on-board | 17:22 |
| BluesKaj | it's a pci nic correct , ffisch ? it's listed as a pci card in your laspci | 17:22 |
| BluesKaj | lspci rather | 17:22 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, basically you need the bnx2 driver for that NIC | 17:22 |
| ffisch | what does pci mean? | 17:22 |
| gr33n7007h | and not the tg3 | 17:22 |
| ffisch | gr33n7007h: ok | 17:23 |
| cbx33 | is jackd 1.9.8 = jackd2? | 17:23 |

| ffisch | and then reboot | 17:24 |
| ffisch | and then attempt to connect | 17:24 |
| ffisch | right? | 17:24 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, so follow them commands again using echo "tg3" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf > /dev/null then echo "bnx2" | sudo tee -a /etc/modules the reboot then dhclient eth0 | 17:24 |
| agoodm | TJ-, I can cause the issue on of all possible host named www.xvideos.com (nsfw!) | 17:24 |

| agoodm | 64 bit ubuntu on laptop, 64 bit centos 6 on the gateway server | 17:27 |
| TJ- | agoodm: Not that then; 64-bit here too | 17:28 |
| agoodm | TJ-, on the gateway server the same query works OK from localhost | 17:28 |
| meshelton | ActionParsnip: I was having trouble with my laptop rebooting for no reason. Ran the memory checker thing from grub and it said no errors | 17:28 |
| TJ- | agoodm: What packages/versions provide the name servers that show the failure? | 17:28 |
| StZ | Ubuntu 12.04, is it possible to force a window (in this case pidgin IM's) to open in a certain workspace? | 17:29 |
| agoodm | TJ-, let me attempt updating the bind version on the gateway to see if the issue was resolved with a patch | 17:29 |
| agoodm | y | 17:29 |
| meshelton | StZ: I don't think there is an easy straightforward way | 17:30 |
| ActionParsnip | agoodm: means your other DNS sucks | 17:30 |
| StZ | Too bad, thanks anyway | 17:30 |
| TJ- | agoodm: I'm trying to trace any mention of it upstream | 17:30 |
| meshelton | StZ: im pretty sure you'll want to check the gnome shell documentation though | 17:30 |
| agoodm | :( it shouldnt its a server with a similar config to many out in the field... quite perplexing, hopefully update fixes... | 17:30 |
| meshelton | StZ: I could be completley wrong, I've looked for something similiar to that for cinnamon but couldn't really find anything | 17:30 |
| agoodm | ive got about 100 users using similar server setups without reported issues | 17:31 |
| agoodm | wonder if its actually the forwarding servers ive chosen that sucj | 17:32 |
| agoodm | suck* | 17:32 |

| gzy | hi, my partition just got remounted as readonly after a "journalling error" should I just restart? it's never happend before. | 17:43 |
| wilee-nilee | jave, cool, I would do a fresh install but that is me I never upgrade. | 17:43 |
| gzy | is there something i should do before restarting, as long as i still have internet access and a working system? | 17:44 |
| wilee-nilee | jave, that is easy for me as I have little in the multiple OS that are on the Hd the stuf I want is on externals. | 17:45 |

| cloudgeek | on ubuntu 12.04 it is giving me error with airodump-ng http://paste.ubuntu.com/1149201/ | 17:45 |
| jazzkovsky | after updating, my precise pangolin doesn't load the starting screen. Instead I get a shell prompt. Any ideas how to fix this? | 17:46 |

| ghabit | Hello. I have two lines @ /etc/rc.local . First is 'sleep 60 && service minidlna force-reload' second is 'exit 0' . But after boot minidlna is not working. But I can start it myself with 'sudo service minidlna force-reload'. Advise me please. | 17:46 |

| DemiStar | I have a "Black Screen" issue after upgrading Nvidia Driver.... how can I fix using live CD, as I cannot even do | 17:49 |

| agoodm | TJ-, I did dig +dnssec xvideos.com to get that result | 17:55 |
| agoodm | without the dnssec part it just truncates and fails on ubuntu | 17:55 |

| MonkeyDust | agoodm this is a family friendly channel, don't ask advice on that kind of sites | 17:58 |
| pc500 | Economically, it's not worth fixing though | 17:58 |
| pc500 | It works fine | 17:58 |
| TJ- | pc500: Or, if the fans don't seem to spinning up when using Ubuntu, investigate the thermal cooling controls side. In the past there were a spate of systems that wouldn't run their fans with Ubuntu. That was 4 years ago though | 17:58 |

| ffisch | I have uninstalled network-manager | 18:00 |
| TJ- | pc500: Probably you'll find it happens when some process hogs the CPU for extended periods. You can check using "top" in a terminal window. You can also install a sensors package to monitor temperatures | 18:00 |
| pc500 | TJ-: - Anyways, I just need to get this data off at this point. Other oses like Windows 7 work fine | 18:00 |

| agoodm | TJ-, I disabled dnssec on my local resolver yet the issue still seems to persist for 'that host name' on my ubuntu box :-/ | 18:01 |
| BluesKaj | ffisch, always use sudo modprobe bnx2 | 18:01 |
| TJ- | pc500: Yes, I saw you said that, which is why I think its more to do with the OS not operating the fans effeciently | 18:01 |
| jazzkovsky | sorry for reposting. I'm not sure if I made myself clear, though. using precise pangolin. for some strange reason, after updating and rebooting, i don't get any graphical interface anymore (i.e: no login screen, no unity ...). any hints? | 18:01 |

| OerHeks | !java | Sagenth | 18:13 |
| ubottu | Sagenth: 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. | 18:13 |

| Brady | any ideas? | 18:16 |
| Slart | !checkinstall | 18:16 |
| ubottu | checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 18:16 |
| Sagenth | lol didn't realize it was a bot | 18:16 |
| Debolaz | Sagenth: That *is* the one from Oracle. | 18:16 |
| Sagenth | It doesn't appear to mention the directory of the installation. I need to point Netbeans to the jdk manually | 18:17 |
| Brady | anyone here have trouble with webgl but eventually get it working? | 18:17 |

| lucusoid | Hi everyone. Have a little problem with my lan card. Everything works fine including internet and samba sharing. From time to time it disconnects and can be brought up again after a cold restart of the computer and the router. What could be wrong? | 19:24 |
| guntbert | jazzkovsky: if I remember correctly you press the middle mouse button to paste text | 19:24 |
| ffisch | gr33n7007h: hmm? | 19:24 |
| ffisch | gr33n7007h: does that mean you cannot solve the problem? | 19:24 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, yeah i'm out of ideas pal! | 19:25 |
| morsnowski_ | ffisch, can you 'ping 192.168.143.131' and tell us what you get? | 19:25 |
| ffisch | jazzkovsky: are you trying to copy/paste in bash? Use ctrl+shift+C and ctrl+shift+V | 19:25 |
| Shadow` | yes go ping that LAN ip | 19:25 |
| ffisch | morsnowski_: ok | 19:25 |
| agoodm | ffisch, just got back and noticed your convo still ongoing, what was the problem again? | 19:26 |

| ffisch | agoodm: already did, here: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1149369/ | 19:29 |
| guntbert | HartmutMehdorn: what is that? | 19:29 |
| ffisch | morsnowski_: ok, i'll ping it | 19:30 |
| ffisch | rebooting | 19:30 |
| agoodm | ok so wlan card doesnt seem to be enabled or detected properly, what was the outcome of the rfkill troubleshooting? | 19:30 |
| OerHeks | HartmutMehdorn, yes there is >> http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/man1/fusecompress.1.html | 19:30 |
| ffisch | agoodm: hmm? | 19:30 |
| jazzkovsky | guntbert: thanks again. now i can paste text from bash to bash. However, I'm using fich and links2 nd need to copy and paste text there i.e. from fich to bsh and from links2 to bash. any ideas? | 19:31 |
| agoodm | ffisch, were you checking if rfkill was active earlier? | 19:31 |
| rocketmagnet | hi all | 19:31 |
| jazzkovsky | guntbert: finch | 19:31 |
| rocketmagnet | i get cracy with ubuntu | 19:31 |
| ffisch | agoodm: no | 19:31 |
| BluesKaj | morsnowski_, he's not using network manager and i don't think he has the network interfaces file configured | 19:31 |
| agoodm | oh right | 19:31 |
| NewWorld | jase_: tell us what the problem is | 19:31 |
| ffisch | BluesKaj: correct. | 19:31 |
| agoodm | ok so in a terminal type the command rfkill list and press enter | 19:31 |
| ffisch | agoodm: so its not my NIC? | 19:32 |
| morsnowski_ | BluesKaj, he has def getway, ip adrress and all is lloking good at ifconfig | 19:32 |
| ffisch | ok | 19:32 |
| ffisch | i will ping and i will do rfkill | 19:32 |
| rocketmagnet | i've installed blender with apt-get and then downloaded the latest version from the page but when i run my downloaded app i see 2 blender icons in the panel | 19:32 |
| agoodm | ffisch, from the pastebin of ifconfig I see no wlan card listed so its probably disabled or rfkilled | 19:32 |
| guntbert | jazzkovsky: sorry, I expected it to work in any program, but I didn't try | 19:32 |
| ffisch | i dont think i have a wlan card | 19:32 |
| ffisch | but w/e | 19:32 |
| rocketmagnet | now i tried to apt-get remove blender and apt-get purge blender but still same result | 19:32 |
| ffisch | rebooting | 19:33 |
| HartmutMehdorn | guntbert: transparent compression for fuse | 19:33 |
| rocketmagnet | i come from debian | 19:33 |
| agoodm | ffisch, oh sorry I thought it was a wireless issue | 19:33 |
| HartmutMehdorn | OerHeks: "apt-cache search fusecompress" gives me no result | 19:33 |
| ffisch | agoodm: no | 19:33 |
| ffisch | its a wired connection issue :( | 19:33 |
| jazzkovsky | guntbert: np. ty | 19:33 |
| agoodm | ffisch, rfkill can also switch off ethernet link so worth checking it | 19:33 |
| ffisch | which makes troubleshoting very inconvenient | 19:33 |
| ffisch | ok | 19:33 |
| ffisch | so | 19:33 |
| phunyguy | so I find it hard to believe that on 4 workstations, I am experiencing high CPU usage for /usr/bin/X but nobody else is? | 19:34 |
| agoodm | im not sure the default ubuntu install comes with rfkill :( but try it anyway | 19:34 |
| ffisch | agoodm: so just do "rfkill" in terminal? | 19:34 |
| agoodm | ffisch, rfkill list | 19:34 |
| bean | rocketmagnet: apt-get remove --purge blender | 19:34 |
| zykotick9 | phunyguy: try switching to a non-compiz based DE/WM and see if you still get high CPU usage | 19:35 |
| agoodm | the ethernet adaptor will be called phy0 as a guess | 19:35 |
| ffisch | agoodm: so "rfkill list"? | 19:35 |
| jase_ | I have issues with shuting down & rebooting issue is random after selecting shutdown or reboot from gui system starts to shutdown but then freezes i can get to a terminal with alt f1 but can not use keyboard ctrl alt delete does not respond | 19:35 |
| agoodm | ffisch, yes | 19:35 |
| ffisch | and then pastebin the results? | 19:35 |
| ffisch | ok | 19:35 |
| agoodm | yes | 19:35 |
| ffisch | ok rebooting | 19:35 |
| phunyguy | zykotick9: thats the thing, it doesnt happen all the time, but then all of a sudden just happens out of the blue. I cant do without my second monitor right now. | 19:35 |
| rocketmagnet | first i try the standalone app then i try the windows version | 19:36 |
| rocketmagnet | wrong channel | 19:36 |
| phunyguy | zykotick9: it may actually be related to empathy | 19:36 |
| phunyguy | and lib-telepathy | 19:36 |

| dfgfh | hi | 19:38 |
| dfgfh | so i've fixed my wifi | 19:38 |
| morsnowski_ | BluesKaj, he has an ip and gateway set | 19:38 |
| dfgfh | but now by cable connection wouldn't work | 19:38 |
| dfgfh | on ubuntu 12.04 | 19:38 |
| dfgfh | probook 4720s | 19:39 |
| dfgfh | what on earth could this mean | 19:39 |
| dfgfh | i mingled with my bios a bit | 19:39 |
| BluesKaj | morsnowski_, it has to be saved in the network interfaces file | 19:39 |
| dfgfh | but since i loaded defaults i hope bios is not to blame | 19:39 |
| zykotick9 | jazzkovsky: for links2 specifically use SHIFT + highlight text, then middle mouse click to paste. for other terminal apps, just highlight and middle click will work. | 19:39 |
| morsnowski_ | BluesKaj, he has working settings | 19:39 |
| phunyguy | dfgfh, you will get flagged for spamming by the bots if you keep using the enter key as punctuation. | 19:39 |
| BluesKaj | he has no network manager | 19:40 |
| dfgfh | also i can connect to dsl on windows on the same machine | 19:40 |
| dfgfh | ok | 19:40 |
| morsnowski_ | BluesKaj, scroll up and look for his second last pastebin | 19:40 |
| dfgfh | it sucks badly, i tell you lot | 19:40 |

| ffisch | morsnowski_: ^^ | 19:40 |
| morsnowski_ | what the output | 19:41 |
| agoodm | ffisch, if you can pastebin the output from ubuntu then you have internet? | 19:41 |
| agoodm | or you typed it out? | 19:41 |
| ffisch | when network manager was installed, it just kept trying to connect but never did | 19:41 |
| dfgfh | is there some kind of information i should supply | 19:41 |
| morsnowski_ | ffisch, what is the output of the ping | 19:41 |
| ffisch | agoodm: i am saving the outputs to a file on the windows partition | 19:41 |
| ffisch | morsnowski_: its in the pastebin | 19:42 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, buy a wireless card might be less of a headache | 19:42 |
| ffisch | agoodm: and then i copy/paste the outputs | 19:42 |

| morsnowski_ | ffisch, ok so that settles it, your interfaces file is faulty | 19:42 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, why? | 19:42 |
| morsnowski_ | do you have an ipconfig from your windows maschine | 19:43 |

| ffisch | morsnowski_: yes | 19:43 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, lol | 19:43 |
| morsnowski_ | can you paste it? | 19:43 |
| BluesKaj | ffisch, look here , http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ | 19:43 |
| ffisch | BluesKaj: yeah, so what? internet doesnt work even on the livecd's | 19:44 |
| agoodm | what did dhclient return when you tried that? | 19:44 |
| ffisch | so the interface file is not faulty | 19:44 |
| morsnowski_ | ffisch, can you paste it? | 19:44 |
| ffisch | agoodm: it just loops forever | 19:45 |
| ffisch | morsnowski_: sure | 19:45 |
| BluesKaj | ok ffisch ..forget it then ...good luck with all those commands that don't work for you | 19:45 |

| ffisch | gr33n7007h: can i get one at best buy? | 19:46 |
| gr33n7007h | ffisch, most likely! | 19:46 |

| binarynomad | PROBLEM with NetworkManager: Working with Desktop install (11.10), machine will not be moving from office, decided to set eth0 as static, and eth1 as promiscuous (to sniff network switch). But when ETH1 comes up, NetworkManager (a) runs DHClient on the interface and overwrites the /etc/resolve.conf file. Is it possible to stop this?

| fabbeerrr | understand? | 20:12 |
| Areckx | agoodm:: cp: omitting directory `/etc' | 20:12 |

| Calahan | Any suggesions on shell backup solution? I would liek ubuntu to once per day check certain folder over lan and back up all new files there is. Is this even possible? | 20:13 |
| fabbeerrr | i don't want moonlight , but silverlight in mozilla.exe already installed with playonlinux | 20:13 |

| agoodm | ffisch, in my honest opinion if networking doesnt work on the live cd either then the driver for your nic isnt working :( not much can be done | 20:14 |
| ffisch | ok | 20:14 |

| ffisch | i will stick with windows then, probably | 20:14 |
| agoodm | Areckx, my pleasure | 20:14 |
| agoodm | ffisch, probably wise | 20:15 |
| Dr_Willis | fabbeerrr: you are running the windows verxion of firefox in wine? | 20:15 |
| ffisch | because the nic is not broken | 20:15 |
| fabbeerrr | yes | 20:15 |

| fabbeerrr | rai.tv doesn't work with moonlight | 20:16 |
| agoodm | ffisch, Dr_Willis makes sense, its possible the problem is fixed in a newer release | 20:16 |
| agoodm | fabbeerrr, sounds like a drm issue, probably wont work in wine/playonlinux either | 20:17 |
| morsnowski_ | ffisch, can you follow this http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/how-to-disable-ipv6-in-ubuntu-1004.html | 20:17 |
| Dr_Willis | silverlight drm wont work in wine i recall | 20:17 |
| gavin_ | does "recovery mode menu hangs" sound familiar to anyone? any ideas for what I could try to unstuck it? | 20:17 |
| morsnowski_ | i want ip6 disabled, that would make it easier | 20:17 |
| fabbeerrr | agoodm listen, i want only know how playonlinux works, so how can i install silverligght.exe in mozilla .exe already installed with playonlinux? | 20:19 |
| fabbeerrr | please help me | 20:19 |
| agoodm | fabbeerrr, not familiar with playonlinux, only with wine... to try it in wine install the browser with wine browserinstaller.exe | 20:19 |
| agoodm | then install the silverlight int he same manner | 20:19 |
| fabbeerrr | when i install with wine, the file where is created? | 20:20 |
| fabbeerrr | where is located after installation? | 20:20 |
| agoodm | run ls .wine in your home folder | 20:20 |
| fabbeerrr | thanks | 20:21 |
| agoodm | probably /home/username/.wine/drive_c/Program Files(x86)/ | 20:21 |

| ffisch | morsnowski_: why get rid of ipv6? is there evidence that that is the problem or are we making stabsin th dark? | 20:23 |
| TJ- | ffisch: I've seen your trials on this. I haven't seen, however, whether you've managed to pastebin the /var/log/kern.log or /var/log/dmesg from that system ... likely any clues would be on one of those files | 20:23 |
| morsnowski_ | no it's easier to trouble shoot under ip4 | 20:23 |
| ffisch | TJ-: Oh? | 20:24 |
| ffisch | should i pastebin them for yo9u? | 20:24 |
| ffisch | I can | 20:24 |

| guntbert | bartmon: see http://askubuntu.com/questions/32999/what-is-vt-handoff-7-parameter-in-grub-cfg | 20:24 |
| TJ- | ffisch: /var/lof/dmesg is the kernel's boot log... it reveal the devices discovered and any problems that may have occurred | 20:24 |
| TJ- | ffisch: typo, that should be "/var/log/dmesg" | 20:24 |
| ffisch | i will disable ipv6 and will pastebin those. | 20:24 |
| morsnowski_ | ffisch, also get us a "tail -f /var/log/syslog" when you plug the network cable in | 20:25 |
| morsnowski_ | yes and pleas paste bin an ifconfig after the changes | 20:25 |
| Studious | you can use hurricane electric for an ipv6-to-ipv4 tunnel | 20:25 |
| ffisch | ok | 20:25 |
| TJ- | Poor ffisch - all those pastebins :) | 20:25 |
| morsnowski_ | and don't fort to restart the network after the changes and before the if config | 20:26 |

| Bryan-VM_ | Hello guys | 20:45 |
| Bryan-VM_ | Is there anyway to see what exactly is causing my Ubuntu VM to be so sluggish? | 20:45 |
| Bryan-VM_ | 2gb of RAM, a decent dual core proc, I'm out of options | 20:46 |
| extrasolar | htop? | 20:46 |
| Bryan-VM_ | htop-? | 20:46 |
| Bryan-VM_ | Im completely new to Ubuntu, so I'm unfamiliar with most things | 20:46 |
| extrasolar | a interactive system-monitor process-viewer | 20:46 |
| MonkeyDust | !notunity| cr1st0 | 20:46 |
| ubottu | cr1st0: 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 | 20:46 |
| Bryan-VM_ | extrasolar, Open through terminal or the ubuntu search thing? | 20:46 |
| jase_ | what command can i use to search syslog for a text string | 20:48 |
| auronandace | Bryan-VM: type it in a terminal | 20:48 |
| extrasolar | terminal | 20:48 |
| auronandace | jase_: grep | 20:48 |
| Bryan-VM | hmm | 20:49 |
| zykotick9 | jase_: "grep foo /path/to/file" | 20:49 |
| Bryan-VM | Does Firefox have a memory leak? | 20:49 |
| Bryan-VM | Because just sitting there with no open tabs got me 86% of my CPU taken up. | 20:49 |
| agoodm | interestingly my dns issue from earlier occurrs with 'irc.freenode.net' as well | 20:50 |
| agoodm | dig +dnssec irc.freenode.net works | 20:50 |
| MonkeyDust | Bryan-VM no issue here, with FF open | 20:50 |
| agoodm | nslookup irc.freenode.net does not | 20:50 |
| Bryan-VM | hmm | 20:51 |
| jase_ | do i have to use quotes for a sting of text | 20:51 |
| extrasolar | 86%.....ouch | 20:51 |
| TJ- | agoodm: I think you have an issue unique to your network | 20:51 |
| Bryan-VM | I dont know what else to do/try | 20:51 |
| extrasolar | have you tried chrome? | 20:51 |
| Bryan-VM | No, im using Midori | 20:51 |
| TJ- | Bryan-VM: Is that Firefox running inside a virtual machine guest? or on the bare metal host? | 20:51 |
| Bryan-VM | TJ, its all running in Ubuntu inside the VM. | 20:51 |
| jase_ | /var/lo | 20:51 |
| agoodm | TJ-, it seems to be related to a combination of lots of hosts and the host using dnssec | 20:52 |
| TJ- | Bryan-VM: what hypervisor are you using? what is the host OS? | 20:52 |
| Bryan-VM | Im using VMware Player on Windows 7 Ultimate | 20:52 |
| extrasolar | specs? | 20:52 |
| Bryan-VM | For the guest or the host? | 20:52 |
| zykotick9 | jase_: i'd just search for lo myself... | 20:53 |
| extrasolar | both | 20:53 |
| Bryan-VM | Host has 4gb of RAM, quad core proc. Guest has 2gb of RAM, dual core proc. | 20:53 |
| extrasolar | hmmm | 20:53 |
| TJ- | Bryan-VM: which release of Ubuntu, and 32 or 64 bit guest? | 20:53 |
| Bryan-VM | 32bit guest, and its the 12.04 LTS | 20:53 |
| extrasolar | I guess you could try lubuntu with a lightweight browswer | 20:54 |
| Bryan-VM | I just dont understand how it is this sluggish | 20:54 |
| agoodm | TJ-, its odd though because no other machines suffer this issue on my network, let me pull up a windows 7 box | 20:54 |
| TJ- | Bryan-VM: I'm seeing some indications that this is some kind of vmware issue, let me dig deeper | 20:55 |
| lesshaste | how do I list all -dbg packages which are currently installed? | 20:55 |
| xuriouss | Bryan-VM, how many tabs do you have open? | 20:55 |
| Bryan-VM | TJ, alright, thanks | 20:55 |
| thufir_ | is there some trick to connecting to apache james? http://www.mail-archive.com/server-user@james.apache.org/msg13823.html I started the server, but my connection is refused. | 20:55 |
| Bryan-VM | xuriouss, In FF, none. I just had it running with no tabs | 20:55 |
| TJ- | lesshaste: dpkg-query -l '*dbg*' | grep '^ii' | 20:55 |
| MonkeyDust | lesshaste dpkg -L|grep ii|grep -dbg | 20:55 |
| extrasolar | I am running ubuntu 12.04 in Virtual Box everything seems alright | 20:55 |
| lesshaste | MonkeyDust: that isn't correct syntax | 20:56 |
| MonkeyDust | lesshaste guess TJ- was more accurate, try that one | 20:56 |
| lesshaste | TJ-: thanks | 20:56 |
| xuriouss | I don't think that's a VM/hardware issue. If it's taking up 86%, it seems like either a bug with ubuntu/FF. How does it fare with another browser or when you have nothing open? Is CPU usage still really low? | 20:57 |
| Bryan-VM | Without FF, everything is around 25% | 20:57 |
| Bryan-VM | Still really sluggish though | 20:57 |
| jase_ | <agoodm> did you have a look if syslog is storing shutdown messages | 20:57 |
| extrasolar | then how sluggish would you say it is? | 20:57 |
| lesshaste | how about just listing the large installed packages? | 20:57 |
| lesshaste | I have 0% space left | 20:57 |
| extrasolar | is it still unbearable | 20:57 |
| agoodm | jase_, sorry got side tracked let me look | 20:57 |
| Bryan-VM | Takes about 15 seconds to switch from IRC to another program, about 30 seconds for that program to draw. | 20:57 |
| TJ- | Bryan-VM: I'm reading that on some bare-metal hosts where the CPU's hardware virtualisation hasn't been enabled (usually via BIOS setting) this can occur since the virtualisation has to be done completely in software | 20:58 |
| jase_ | thanks | 20:58 |
| Bryan-VM | Does that make sense extrasolar | 20:58 |
| zykotick9 | lesshaste: how much is your apt archive taking? "du -sh /var/cache/apt/archives/" | 20:58 |
| TJ- | Bryan-VM: What CPU does the host have? is VT enabled? | 20:58 |
| === jsec is now known as Guest27074 | ||

| Bryan-VM | Im not sure on the exact m odel I just know its an intel quad core | 20:58 |
| agoodm | jase_, depends what you mean by shutdown messages... I rebooted a machine just now and there are messages from programs closing down etc | 20:58 |
| Bryan-VM | and VT is enabled | 20:58 |

| jase_ | <agoodm> im getting freezes when i try to shutdown or reboot sometimes it does work but mainly not | 21:05 |
| xuriouss | extrasolar: use a different browser, use an older version.. | 21:06 |
| TJ- | extrasolar: Bryan-VM: My feeling is it's an interaction between host and guest. I'd like to prove that wrong. Does the guest use lots of CPU without the firefox process running? | 21:06 |
| agoodm | jase_, ah, really have no clue personally how to debug this, only thing i can suggest as a stab in the dark is start up with noapic or noacpi kernel parameters | 21:06 |
| jase_ | <agoodm> The last message that i get on a failed shutdown is acpid exiting | 21:06 |
| agoodm | see if it helps | 21:06 |
| Bryan-VM | TJ, No. Unless I'm confused what you mean. Do you mean the CPU inside the VM, or the cpu use the entire VM is taking up on the Host? | 21:07 |
| SwashBuckla | TJ-: I don't understand how to have the repository enabled in Software Sources. Can you help? | 21:08 |
| jase_ | <agoodm> I've read about adding acpid --force to grub but am unsure as to why that would help | 21:08 |
| agoodm | jase_, turning off apic and or acpi can help fix issues where the acpi or apic implementation is broken or buggy for your hardware | 21:09 |
| TJ- | Bryan-VM: I think I'm confused too :D ... From what you said earlier about CPU usage 86% I understood that to mean than the ubuntu guest was showing the firefox process using 86% in the guest. Is that correct? | 21:10 |
| stratoka | hi all | 21:10 |
| Bryan-VM | TJ, Yes. Inside of Ubuntu, Firefox was reported as using 86% of CPU | 21:10 |
| TJ- | SwashBuckla: http://ubuntuguide.net/enable-proposed-pre-released-updates-ubuntu-12-04 | 21:10 |
| jase_ | <agoodm> Would adding that to grub do that | 21:10 |
| TJ- | Bryan-VM: OK ... if you stop the firefox process CPU usage returns to idle? | 21:11 |
| agoodm | jase_, dont add it in grub in case your system doesnt boot afterwards | 21:11 |
| Bryan-VM | Yes | 21:11 |

| agoodm | jase_, off top of my head procedure is keep tapping escape as your machine boots, in the grub menu press e then use the arrow keys to get to the end of the kernel line type noacpi then press enter or b | 21:12 |
| agoodm | something along those lines | 21:12 |
| agoodm | if noacpi doesnt fix try noapic | 21:12 |
| jase_ | <agoodm> Is adding acpid=force to grub not the same as turning off acpid | 21:12 |
| TJ- | Bryan-VM: OK... and this occurs with the only tab open being the overview/most visited sites thumbnails? | 21:12 |
| david___ | Hi, I'm trying to get my wireless card to work on Ubuntu Server 12.04. It appears in ifconfig and iwconfig (so I believe the necessary drivers are installed), but I can't get it to connect to my WPA2 network using wpa_supplicant - any help appreciated! :) | 21:12 |
| agoodm | jase_, try noapic and noacpi seperately first | 21:12 |
| Bryan-VM | This occured during that, yes. Whenever I opened a tab to actually use it, it jumped higher | 21:13 |
| agoodm | im not sure what the acpid=force thing will do so im not suggesting it | 21:13 |
| TJ- | jase_: Do you by any chance have an uninterruptable power supply (UPS) on that PC? | 21:13 |
| jase_ | TJ No | 21:13 |
| TJ- | agoodm: noapic will disable the advance programmable interrupt controller, not the same as ACPI :p | 21:14 |
| agoodm | TJ-, I know but ive found issues sometimes seem to be interlinked | 21:14 |
| jase_ | <agoodm> I'll try that back later thanks | 21:15 |
| TJ- | agoodm: It can when the ACPI tables in the ROM are incorrect :) | 21:16 |

| testis | it'a actually mipsel BCM97xxx Settop Platform | 21:52 |
| testis | dm500hd | 21:52 |
| sveinse | testis: Generally speaking you need to setup ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE (and perhaps TARGET_CFLAGS, I'm not sure) | 21:52 |
| testis | i did that in makefile | 21:52 |
| testis | then do i need mipsel compiler? binutils, gcc? | 21:53 |
| sveinse | testis: for arm it's ARCH=arm and CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- | 21:53 |
| jase_ | <agoodm> When i press e at the grub menu where do i put the noacpi | 21:53 |

| testis | it's somewhere in my /home folder | 21:54 |
| testis | @TJ where i can find that? | 21:54 |

| agoodm | Tulak1, not sure if its the same on ubuntu but on my centos 6 box that also uses network manager I add dns into this file: /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 | 22:07 |
| ruif13 | MonkeyDust doesn't work | 22:07 |
| znudee | It starts and so, on all of the methods, and you come to the install, then when I'm chosing language or so, the install starts, I first can't move the mouse, then after about 10 minutes when I can move it I can't click on any buttons, and the keyboard doesn't work either. | 22:07 |
| agoodm | TJ-, I noticed that when I did the affected lookups from the gateway device it too as using tcp (firewall allows everything on 127.0.0.1) | 22:08 |
| agoodm | TJ-, so not dnssec issue but simply the reply is too big for the udp packet I suspect | 22:08 |
| david___ | Should I be using the wext driver with wpa_supplicant? | 22:08 |

| Merculis | I was lazy and used Wubi to install 12.04. I'm having this issue where my laptop hangs, regardless of application/process, just like one is accustomed to in Windoze. The only difference is that my CPU seems to be the thing that is pegged rather than the typical RAM or Disk I/O type of issue in Windoze. There doesn't seem to be anything blaringly wrong; as it occurs with any app...not just a browser. I have a Core i7 with 8 | 22:22 |

| jase_ | <agoodm> If turning off acpi works what problems may i get leaving it disabled | 22:23 |
| L3top | devin: when you boot into what, do you get this? | 22:23 |
| agoodm | jase_, probably higher power usage and thats about it | 22:24 |
| devin | L3top: I boot into ubuntu automaticly. Grub 2 | 22:24 |
| L3top | jase_: acpi is the advanced configuration and power interface... so advanced power features will not work... like auto dimming a laptop display after time... suspend and hybernate might have issues... I don't know if that covers polite fan throttling etc. | 22:25 |
| jase_ | <agoodm> Could the problem be related to a certain device not agreeing with acpi | 22:26 |
| L3top | devin: do you have an xorg.conf file? Can you boot from grub into text only mode to check some things? | 22:26 |
| agoodm | jase_, possibly or more like the acpi implementation for your system is buggy or incomplete | 22:26 |
| L3top | jase_: possibly... nm... what he said. | 22:26 |
| TJ- | jase_: noacpi isn't really a solution since it disables a lot of core functions the kernel relies upon... if you could get to the bottom of the failure, that would be preferable | 22:28 |
| jase_ | <agoodm> Does that come from the bios | 22:28 |
| agoodm | jase_, yes | 22:28 |
| agoodm | jase_, there is stuff in ubuntu that interfaces with it too | 22:28 |
| jase_ | <agoodm> The reason i ask about a particular piece of hardware is i have a imon ir/vfd display in this machine with the issues and have an other machine with similar hardware and that one is fine. | 22:31 |
| jase_ | <agoodm> Apart from the imon display | 22:32 |
| agoodm | it wont be the imon thing causing it | 22:32 |

| Randomuser894739 | Dr_Willis, yes, it's been used a couple of times. I can't remember what I did last to it, partition wize. Used an HFS partition I think. It's ext4 now, but with the mentioned errors. | 22:38 |
| Randomuser894739 | agoodm, yes | 22:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Randomuser894739: if dd is unable to write to it.. the thing has serious issues.. check 'dmesg' output when you are trying to access it. may give some info | 22:38 |

| jase_ | Thanks all will give it a try goodnight | 22:39 |
| Randomuser894739 | Dr_Willis, dd can write to it and it ends, but it still shows my old partition, unchanged. | 22:39 |
| Randomuser894739 | Dr_Willis, note: even after trying to write new partition table and reboot. | 22:39 |
| TJ- | Random832: Are you *sure* you are addressing the correct device? :D | 22:39 |
| Dr_Willis | http://askubuntu.com/questions/16811/how-well-is-the-hfs-filesystem-supported | 22:40 |
| Randomuser894739 | Dr_Willis, it had HFS, but has got the ext4 now… | 22:40 |
| Randomuser894739 | It refuses to do anything with the ext4 partition | 22:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Randomuser894739: perhaps pastebin the fdisk -l output. | 22:41 |
| c0deMaster | how to mount Journaled HFS with read/write? | 22:41 |
| Randomuser894739 | Dr_Willis, it shows the USB stick as a working fat32 drive. Weird? | 22:41 |
| agoodm | Randomuser894739, after partitioning the drive did you format the partition ? | 22:41 |
| === rob is now known as Guest21418 | ||

| Dr_Willis | oops c0deMaster : http://askubuntu.com/questions/16811/how-well-is-the-hfs-filesystem-supported | 22:42 |
| agoodm | Randomuser894739, if there is nothing on the drive lets start from scratch... its simple to do | 22:42 |
| jagginess | c0deMaster, i dont think that's safe unless you compile apple's hfs+ file.. (i've had corruption with hfsplus module in linux in the past, but this was like 2 years ago i did this) | 22:42 |
| agoodm | Randomuser894739, in all the following replace sdx with the drives letter for example sdb; sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdx let it run for 30s then press controll + c | 22:43 |
| c0deMaster | jagginess, so how to share a parition between both Ubuntu and Mac with r/w ? | 22:43 |
| agoodm | the sudo fdisk /dev/sdx | 22:43 |
| agoodm | issue a p to confirm no partitions on device | 22:43 |
| jagginess | c0deMaster, use a file server, you can use samba | 22:43 |
| TJ- | agoodm: Randomuser894739 That would be better as "sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdx" | 22:43 |
| Randomuser894739 | agoodm and Dr_Willis , sorry for bothering you. Seems like 1 1/2 hour of googling, then me asking the question and I finally found a page which describes how to manually add, using heads and cylinders info. | 22:43 |
| jagginess | c0deMaster, or if you reboot the computer, a fat32 is perfectly safe | 22:44 |
| Randomuser894739 | Typical, but thank you for the fast response. | 22:44 |
| jagginess | c0deMaster, (if you're talking about osx and linux being on the same computer and not using fileservices) | 22:44 |
| TJ- | Randomuser894739: You shouldn't need ever to mess with CHS. | 22:45 |
| === THE_BOULDER is now known as KaiSforza | ||
| Dr_Willis | yea.. I would guess somthign IS going bad with that usb. | 22:47 |
| Randomuser894739 | Perhaps. It's a verbatim USB. Heard shoddy stuff about those. | 22:48 |
| Dr_Willis | check dmesg output next time you have issues with it.. may give a clue. | 22:48 |
| Randomuser894739 | I wrote a puppy linux ISO using DD command. It shows the partition, but under gparted it stays as "Un allocated" with the same error message "Warning: /dev/sdc: Unrecognised disk label." I tried to boot from it even though it says that, since the partition shows. No go. | 22:49 |
| Randomuser894739 | Disk label is lupu_528 | 22:49 |
| TJ- | Randomuser894739: There's three steps: 1. blank sector 0 (where the partition table/disk label is stored), 2. create a disk label and partition table (using fdisk), 3. format the file-systems created by (2). | 22:49 |
| Dr_Willis | a ISO image to a usb is 'special' in a lot of ways.. since it dosent have a normal partiion layout. | 22:49 |
| Dr_Willis | to Undo an ISO to USB, i have to use dd to zero the flash, then repartion it | 22:49 |
| TJ- | Random832: I'd expect it to say that; there's no partition table in an ISO image | 22:50 |
| TJ- | Randomuser894739: : I'd expect it to say that; there's no partition table in an ISO image | 22:50 |
| Randomuser894739 | I'll dd zero it. It took twenty minutes the last time I did that... | 22:50 |
| agoodm | Randomuser894739, just let it run for a few seconds and cancel it | 22:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Randomuser894739: 20 min? how big is it? | 22:51 |
| WeThePeople | armageddon out of here | 22:51 |
| Randomuser894739 | agoodm, Ok, will do. Dr_Willis 4 gb. | 22:51 |
| TJ- | Randomuser894739: All you need to zero is sector 0: "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdx bs=512 count=1" | 22:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Randomuser894739: that shouldent take more then a few min | 22:52 |
| Randomuser894739 | TJ- , thanks | 22:52 |
| Randomuser894739 | Ok, now it says with fdisk -l that the disk does not contain a valid partition table. "Disk identifier: 0x00000000" | 22:52 |
| TJ- | Random832: And once you've done that run "sudo partprobe" ... if it isn't installed then do first "sudo apt-get install parted" | 22:53 |
| TJ- | Random832: That's good | 22:53 |
| TJ- | grrrr Randomuser894739 That's good | 22:53 |
| Randomuser894739 | Fdisk said that the invalid partition table would be corrected with write. | 22:53 |
| Randomuser894739 | Did that, and don't worry about the nick TJ- I'm reading :) | 22:53 |

| Randomuser894739 | The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly? | 22:57 |
| TJ- | Randomuser894739: Did you replace the "x" with your device's name? | 22:58 |
| Randomuser894739 | Yes, sdc1 | 22:58 |
| TJ- | Randomuser894739: Can you pastebin the response from that command please? | 22:58 |
| TJ- | Randomuser894739: And... did you run "sudo partprobe" before doing the "mkfs.ext4" ? | 22:59 |
| Randomuser894739 | yes | 22:59 |
| TJ- | Randomuser894739: OK, good. "partprobe" ensures the kernel re-reads the disk's partition table | 22:59 |

| ActionParsnip | Randomuser894739: do you have a magnet? You can put it near it on both sides and it should be formattable. Use as a last ditch | 23:13 |
| Randomuser894739 | agoodm, should I redo the steps and issue the write command? | 23:13 |
| ActionParsnip | bluezone: you can use an xorg.conf if needed | 23:13 |
| agoodm | Randomuser894739, fdisk /dev/sdc press n primary id 1 then type t press enter type 0x83 then w enter and quit | 23:13 |
| zykotick9 | ActionParsnip: you'd probably need an electro-magnet to actually wipe a drive... | 23:14 |
| agoodm | can provide precise instruction if needed | 23:14 |
| ActionParsnip | zykotick9: I've used a strong fridge magnet in the past. I've been in the same place.Works well | 23:14 |
| agoodm | bluezone, easiest way is xset m 0 0 | 23:15 |
| agoodm | thats turns off acceleration should make it sloooow | 23:15 |
| Randomuser894739 | It altered the partition table, agoodm . Still won't create mkfs.ext4 | 23:15 |
| zykotick9 | ActionParsnip: good to know (i guess). of the potential danger ;) | 23:15 |
| Randomuser894739 | Did the sudo partprobe command after "write" | 23:15 |
| agoodm | redo the dd command that read the table | 23:15 |
| ActionParsnip | zykotick9: hence 'last ditch' ;) | 23:16 |
| Randomuser894739 | agoodm, /dev/sdc does not contain a valid partition table. | 23:16 |
| bluezone | agoodm, i ran that in term, still too fast lol | 23:16 |

| agoodm | need to fetch it first | 23:17 |
| zykotick9 | bluezone: have to set sensitivity to full? perhaps i have it backwards - but i'd think that should slow the mouse | 23:17 |
| Randomuser894739 | I did the fdisk, add partition, type 0x83, write, then dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc bs=512 count=1 , then I did the sudo partprobe, fdisk -l and it tells me it does not contain a valid partition table. | 23:18 |
| bluezone | ActionParsnip, what do you mean i can "use" an xorg.conf, isn't that some file? | 23:18 |

| agoodm | pastebin the result | 23:22 |
| zykotick9 | bluezone: ignore me :) but i'd assume (perhaps incorrectly) that more sensitivity on the mouse would make it slower, not faster. | 23:22 |

| agoodm | Randomuser894739, that would erase the partition table you just created | 23:25 |
| Randomuser894739 | I see. I understand now | 23:25 |
| TJ- | Randomuser894739: You do that you erase everything. An ISO is for CDs/DVDs. They do not use partition tables so would wipe out everything | 23:25 |
| Randomuser894739 | The reason I want puppylinux on there is because I have a small netbook. I downloaded the ISO and it said it was USB bootable. How would you go on having the bootable ISO on there? | 23:26 |
| cetigar | bluezone ok, thanks | 23:26 |
| Randomuser894739 | TJ- I've been able to dd Aros, Icaros, Haiku and windows 98 on it before? | 23:26 |
| jagginess | Randomuser894739, this #ubuntu | 23:26 |
| Randomuser894739 | I don't understand if it is just for cd's only. | 23:26 |
| TJ- | Random832: It may have syslinux on there as the bootloader... In which case when you boot the PC from the USB device, the bootloader should be read by the PC BIOS and that should lead to the USB device booting | 23:26 |
| cetigar | dr_willis that one is very tempting, but the system76 is much cheaper. Are the system76 laptops as thick as people say they are? | 23:26 |
| jagginess | Randomuser894739, wrong channel :/ | 23:26 |
| Randomuser894739 | jagginess, yes.The problem was to make an USB stick usable in ubuntu | 23:26 |
| agoodm | its safe to do it, but afterwards you must wipe out the start of the disk and re partition it so you can re use it | 23:27 |

| Randomuser894739 | jagginess, What is the command "Cat" exactly? I see it being used often. Sorry that it's not ubuntu related, just want to learn | 23:30 |
| slugger | hello answer me | 23:30 |
| agoodm | jagginess, this works for most situations except where the machine will only boot uefi mode from usb. its better to use dd | 23:30 |
| jagginess | (but there's unetbootin and pendrive, i prefer pendrive's tools) | 23:30 |
| ActionParsnip | slugger: you can with a PPA but its known to break things | 23:30 |
| slugger | answer me noe | 23:30 |
| agoodm | Randomuser894739, it prints the contents of a file onto the standard output | 23:30 |
| cetigar | do you guys have high hopes for the XPS13 coming out with Ubuntu preinstalled? http://www.engadget.com/2012/07/19/dell-to-ship-xps-13-with-ubuntu-linux-in-some-areas/ | 23:30 |
| slugger | i want the launcher like mac | 23:30 |
| slugger | now | 23:30 |
| ActionParsnip | slugger: nobody has to answer you , you know... | 23:30 |
| Michaelx92 | guys | 23:30 |
| Dr_Willis | !dock | slugger | 23:31 |
| ubottu | slugger: Ubuntu includes several dock-like navigation bars. Some options are: avant-window-navigator, cairo-dock, docky (formerly part of gnome-do), stalonetray, simdock, kdocker, kooldock. | 23:31 |
| Michaelx92 | can you help me | 23:31 |
| Michaelx92 | adf.lying? | 23:31 |
| ActionParsnip | slugger: your attitude is pathetic, so no | 23:31 |
| Randomuser894739 | I'm writing puppylinux using unetbootin now. | 23:31 |
| jagginess | agoodm, dd doesnt do anything to the stream.. you're wrong on this.. | 23:31 |
| Randomuser894739 | To the usb, mind you | 23:31 |
| bonhoeffer | i keep trying to mount hfs, but get: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0 | 23:31 |
| ActionParsnip | slugger: who do you think you are? | 23:31 |
| Michaelx92 | clicking on this link will destroy your computer: http://q.gs/1Z7sU | 23:31 |
| slugger | i am slugger | 23:31 |
| slugger | bye | 23:31 |
| ActionParsnip | slugger: no, you are an ass | 23:31 |
| jagginess | bonhoeffer, maybe /dev/loop0 has a partition table header | 23:32 |
| agoodm | jagginess, cat will work i guess :) | 23:32 |
| cetigar | eh maybe i | 23:32 |
| bonhoeffer | jagginess, i'll check | 23:32 |
| cetigar | *i'll just go with the system76, it's a lot cheaper and it's thinner than an inspiron 1545 | 23:32 |
| Dr_Willis | cetigar: makes no differance to us. :) | 23:32 |
| jagginess | bonhoeffer, if you modprobe dm, and then kpartx -a /dev/loop (something like this), you'll get /dev/mapper/loop0p1 stuff | 23:32 |
| bonhoeffer | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1149766/ | 23:32 |
| cetigar | dr_willis i know :) but I am seeking advice | 23:32 |
| bonhoeffer | for jagginess ^^ | 23:32 |
| Dr_Willis | cetigar: Not technically a 'support' issue either. :) perhaps ask in #ubuntu+1 | 23:33 |
| Harris | my dad told me ubuntu was bad for students because you cant you ilife | 23:33 |
| jagginess | bonhoeffer, ya but you have to paste what command you used | 23:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Harris: what is ilife? | 23:33 |
| bonhoeffer | oh, sorry mmls -- from the sluth tool-kit | 23:33 |
| Dr_Willis | Harris: i never used iLife when i was a student... | 23:33 |
| Harris | for macs | 23:33 |
| Harris | i am in video production | 23:33 |
| TJ- | agoodm: Randomuser894739 I've figured out what was going wrong. I copied the pastebin of the sector into a loop mount and checked it. It had the disk label but the partition hadn't been written to the disk ("w" wasn't done before quit) | 23:33 |
| cetigar | dr_willis "the channel for discussion of pre-release versions of Ubuntu"? | 23:33 |
| bonhoeffer | i'll try modprobe | 23:33 |
| Harris | i need imovie to make movie trailers | 23:34 |
| Randomuser894739 | TJ-, sounds very right :) | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | cetigar: Not technically a 'support' issue either. :) perhaps ask in #ubuntu-offtopic ;P | 23:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Harris: there are open source equivelants of all those apps | 23:34 |
| TJ- | bonhoeffer: Evening :) | 23:34 |
| Randomuser894739 | Testing the usb now | 23:34 |
| Harris | that makes trailers | 23:34 |
| cetigar | dr_willis ok :) | 23:34 |
| === fishwithapipe is now known as f|shy | ||
| bonhoeffer | jagginess, what do you mean by "modprobe dm" | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Make Movie Trailers? isent that the job of the Movie company.. ;P | 23:34 |
| bonhoeffer | dm not found . . . | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | Never knew trailers were so special they needed special apps to make them.. | 23:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Harris: you can make trailers in pitivi and many of the other video editting apps in Ubuntu | 23:34 |
| bonhoeffer | TJ-, hello! | 23:34 |
| agoodm | Now after trying to help a few folk maybe ill get lucky and someone might know how I can help the devs to fix my sound problems | 23:34 |
| jagginess | bonhoeffer, http://pastebin.com/wXxzQAxJ | 23:35 |
| jagginess | bonhoeffer, it's actually dm_mod | 23:35 |
| Harris | are there templates for the movie trailer ike imovie | 23:35 |
| bonhoeffer | jagginess, my bad, i should have gotten familiar with it :) | 23:35 |
| Randomuser894739 | TJ-, Dr_Willis agoodm jagginess and ActionParsnip . It works. Everything works and the system boots from the USB. Thank you :) | 23:35 |
| ActionParsnip | Harris: I belive there will be some, try a few apps, see what they can do | 23:35 |
| Randomuser894739 | I don't know what went wrong to begin with, but it works and with your help I got it working | 23:36 |
| Randomuser894739 | thanks | 23:36 |
| jagginess | bonhoeffer, not widely reported online, i made those notes like a year ago :) | 23:36 |
| Harris | i have a project due in an hour | 23:36 |
| Harris | for a trailer | 23:36 |
| Harris | ubuntu is all i have | 23:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Harris: then why are you pratting around with your system when you actually don't have time to spare? | 23:36 |
| jagginess | bonhoeffer, i was in a heated debated with someone about using a script that was using predetermine presets.. but presets aren't the same for all table headers.. | 23:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Harris: http://techcityinc.com/2009/02/04/top-10-free-video-editors-for-ubuntu-linux/ have fun | 23:37 |
| jagginess | bonhoeffer, i told him you dont need a script to do mountpoints from an image.. so this is the safest way.. (kpartx, losetup, etc.) | 23:37 |
| agoodm | I have a lenovo thinkpad x220 and a lenovo mini dock series 3, connected to the mini dock are 2x 24inch screens, keyboard, mouse head set, when both my headset and the mic are plugged into the dock whatever is being played through my headset is also 'monitored' or played onto the mic input causing feedback in calls | 23:37 |
| bluezone | Even with The acceleration and sensitivity all the way to minimum, the mouse is STILL too fast, is there anyway to reduce the pointer speed even furthur?, still ISO solution | 23:37 |
| agoodm | if I plug the headset into the laptop and the mic into the dock it works properly | 23:37 |
| bonhoeffer | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1149772/ | 23:37 |
| jagginess | bonhoeffer, did you list you losetup points? | 23:38 |
| bonhoeffer | jagginess, i like your noscript approach | 23:38 |
| Harris | like is there a wine for mac | 23:38 |
| bonhoeffer | no, what does that do? | 23:38 |
| jagginess | bonhoeffer, what's bound to /dev/loop0 ? | 23:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Harris: not that i've ever heard of | 23:38 |
| jagginess | bonhoeffer, you're supposed to use losetup if you're trying to bound a rawimage | 23:38 |
| jagginess | lol | 23:38 |
| ActionParsnip | Harris: could ask in #winehq but i doubt it, 'd use one of the native apps | 23:39 |
| jagginess | bonhoeffer, losetup -a , lists | 23:39 |
| jagginess | ( http://linux.die.net/man/8/losetup ) | 23:39 |
| jagginess | bonhoeffer, you can ask me on #linux, this seems very unubuntu | 23:40 |
| bonhoeffer | fair enough | 23:40 |
| Harris | when i open libre writting the arrow saying it is open doesnt show up | 23:42 |
| TJ- | bonhoeffer: Have you done "sudo modprobe hfs" to load the HFS file-system driver before "sudo mount -t hfs -o loop /path/to/file.img /media/directory" ? | 23:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Harris: what arrow? | 23:42 |

| konradb | hi, how to partition disks for ubuntu? I have hdd 150GiB and SSD 64GIB. | 23:44 |
| Dr_Willis | konradb: totally depends on your needs. you could put / on the 64gb and /home/ on the 150gb hd. | 23:44 |
| Harris | no ActionParsnip | 23:45 |
| Dr_Willis | konradb: and swap on the 150gbhd also. | 23:45 |
| === scottas is now known as zz_scottas | ||
| Dr_Willis | 64gb is a bit large for / ;) but it depends on your needs. | 23:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Harris: does the terminal output anything? | 23:45 |
| konradb | Dr_Willis: I just want to make it faster. Booting, running apps etc | 23:46 |
| Harris | nope it opens it but it doesnt show up in launcher | 23:46 |
| konradb | so all partitions except /home on SSD? | 23:46 |
| Dr_Willis | konradb: fastest would put eveyrthing on the ssd.. but thats a little overkill. | 23:46 |
| konradb | and expensive | 23:46 |
| Dr_Willis | konradb: you could put your main users home directory on the ssd if you wanted to. | 23:46 |
| konradb | ;d | 23:46 |
| Dr_Willis | expensive? 64gb ssd was on sale for like $60 here the other day. | 23:47 |
| konradb | but on /home i dont have apps etc | 23:47 |
| Dr_Willis | got a 128gb SSD for just at the $100 mark | 23:47 |
| konradb | Dr_Willis: in Your country - meaby ;p | 23:47 |
| konradb | maybe* | 23:47 |
| ActionParsnip | I'd get a 10Gb SSD for / and use a platter based drive for /home waaaay cheaper | 23:47 |
| Harris | i still cant find one with templates for movie trailer | 23:48 |
| * Dr_Willis wonders how a movie trailer is so special.. | 23:48 | |

| ActionParsnip | alazare619: can you give the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh && ./alsa-info.sh | 23:52 |
| alazare619 | yea | 23:52 |

| ActionParsnip | Harris: search for apps in dash, then drag the to the panel on the left | 23:53 |
| Harris | is the pannel the launcher | 23:53 |
| === diegovieira is now known as revolts | ||

| ActionParsnip | alazare619: are you ysing HDMI audio or normal speakers? | 23:54 |
| alazare619 | ac'97 | 23:55 |
| Harris | how do i close all programs open except for xchat | 23:55 |
| alazare619 | standard headphone style speaker | 23:55 |
| alazare619 | tho id prefer to get hdmi working but its never worked under nix at all | 23:55 |
| alazare619 | video works fine tho for hdmi | 23:55 |
| ActionParsnip | alazare619: tried: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/ppa; sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get dist-upgrade; sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-sound-base alsa-base alsa-utils; killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.pulse* | 23:55 |
| alazare619 | whats even odder is in 10.04 this worked fine | 23:55 |
| alazare619 | i actually just purged that ppa | 23:56 |
| ActionParsnip | alazare619: different versions of everything, makes a difference | 23:56 |
| alazare619 | nothing was going to upgrade when i ran an add-apt-repo aptget update apt-get upgrade | 23:56 |
| Harris | terminal to close every app | 23:57 |
| ActionParsnip | alazare619: have you tried in liveCD (which has pulse) to see how it runs there? | 23:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Harris: you can run: xkill and click apps to close them | 23:58 |
| alazare619 | yea same thing | 23:58 |
| alazare619 | thats why i tried a mini install | 23:58 |
| alazare619 | i belive its related to a kernel issue possibly | 23:58 |
| ActionParsnip | alazare619: tried different cables / speakers? | 23:58 |
| alazare619 | i figure as much because when i boot 2.6 kernel | 23:58 |
| alazare619 | its fine | 23:58 |
| ActionParsnip | alazare619: sounds like a bug then | 23:58 |
| Harris | now there are libre windows running minimized but since i cant see in the launcher i dont know how to close them | 23:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Harris: use: top | 23:59 |
| alazare619 | only bad thign is ...i purged that kernel by mistake :( | 23:59 |
| alazare619 | when i reloaded a mini figuring it might be related to pulse | 23:59 |
| ActionParsnip | alazare619: ah, so its an upgrade? | 23:59 |
| Dr_Willis | i always use the close button.. or the menu items... | 23:59 |
| alazare619 | yea | 23:59 |
| alazare619 | i upgraded to 12.04 and this issue started | 23:59 |
| ActionParsnip | alazare619: consired a clean install? Upgrades can cause issues | 23:59 |
| alazare619 | first thing was boot into 2.6 kernel its fine | 23:59 |
