| DanStamp | Thanks! that'll save me some effort. I've been restarting. | 00:00 |

| DanStamp | And unfortunately I don't. | 00:00 |
| Songcat | !!! I can see the data on sda3! | 00:01 |
| ubottu | Songcat: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:01 |
| Songcat | I tried mounting them before but I didn't really know what I was doing so it didn't work; apparently "sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt" is the right thing. | 00:02 |
| DanStamp | My mother recently aquired the contents of a shop, to start her own business. And the previous owners basically just left all the computers and stuff (as to be honest, they're not really worth anything). | 00:02 |
| Songcat | dr_willis / szal / ffk27: Thanks!! | 00:02 |
| DanStamp | So I have no paperwork or documentation for them unfortunately. | 00:02 |
| szal | Songcat: rule of thumb: for hard disk partitions, you can normally omit indicating the fs type in the mount options; the mount command should be able to figure out the fs type by itself | 00:03 |

| foobArrr | I'm using an USB KVM switch, one of the connected PCs runs Ubuntu. Sometimes when I switch to the Ubuntu PC, keyboard and mouse don't respond and dmesg is flooded with this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1167055/ | 00:04 |
| Songcat | szal: Thank you! I'll keep that in mind for future mounting. | 00:04 |
| TJ- | DanStamp: I do. Here it is: http://iam.tj/files/J2_550_Technical_Manual.pdf | 00:05 |
| szal | Songcat: unless you need write access to an NTFS partition, then you need to tell it to use ntfs-3g, as the old ntfs option only gives you read access | 00:06 |
| DanStamp | oh nice find! That should have the native resolution in there.. | 00:06 |
| dr_willis | !mount > Songcat | 00:06 |
| ubottu | Songcat, please see my private message | 00:06 |
| dr_willis | Songcat: if sda3 is ntfs.. its weird that fdisk says its ext3 | 00:07 |
| Songcat | szal: If it's non-ntfs, will I have write access? | 00:07 |
| szal | dr_willis: well, if he mounted it as ext3 and can read the data, then it probably is ext3 ;) | 00:07 |
| szal | Songcat: yes.. probably only as root, but yes | 00:08 |
| Songcat | dr_willis: Thanks! Should it be ntfs? | 00:08 |
| dr_willis | Songcat: if its NTFS.. yes.. | 00:08 |
| dr_willis | Songcat: what does 'mount' say about it? | 00:08 |
| Songcat | dr_willis: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1262970/ | 00:10 |
| dr_willis | Hmmm... | 00:10 |
| dr_willis | /dev/sda1 on /mnt type ext4 (rw) | 00:10 |
| dr_willis | /dev/sda3 on /mnt type ext4 (rw) | 00:10 |
| dr_willis | in the future. :) use differnt mount points.. | 00:11 |
| dr_willis | You got one mounted over the top of the other.. and both are aparently ext4 | 00:11 |
| Zignd_ | Testing... | 00:11 |
| dr_willis | so depending on the order you mounted sda1 and sda3 - one is not accesable right now | 00:12 |
| Hatori | zignd_ ... What? | 00:12 |
| Songcat | dr_willis: What should I use in the future? I don't know how they're mounted on top of each other; last install, I had separate /home and root partitions and just installed over the root partition (leaving home); could that have caused that problem? | 00:12 |
| dr_willis | Songcat: you can mount whever you want. | 00:12 |
| Zignd_ | Sorry I was just testing the service @Hatori | 00:12 |
| dr_willis | Songcat: /media/MAKEADIRECTORYYOUWANTTOUSE | 00:12 |
| dr_willis | Songcat: you must have mounted them by hand.. both to /mnt/ | 00:13 |
| Xbs | hi guys i have a question, i have a physical machine on which i have installed ubuntu, and i would like to make a template in .qcow2 format from it, is it feasable? | 00:13 |
| dr_willis | I would guess that sda1 is root, and sda3 is home | 00:13 |
| dr_willis | bbl folks | 00:14 |
| DanStamp | Hmm okay, maybe it doesn't mention the the native resolution in there. It's mostly just hardware stuff. | 00:15 |

| deadmund | burrito: if you're using NOT KDE ubuntu | 01:09 |
| deadmund | Guest44051: sweet name | 01:09 |

| deadmund | Guest44051: I believe so. | 01:10 |
| deadmund | Guest44051: actually, now that I think about it. firefox depends on GTK so if you have firefox installed by default (all of them but server) you'll have gtk | 01:11 |
| === Dad is now known as Guest39047 | ||

| dtcrshr | I need to create a wpa2 enterprise connection in ubuntu, which will be avaiable for all users, but username ans password must be inserted at all times | 01:13 |
| dtcrshr | its for the netbooks in the library, that we will lend to the students so they can use it inside our files | 01:13 |
| burritoMachine | deadmund, yeah, it's on all my other distros, just not this one :( | 01:13 |
| deadmund | burritoMachine: :) | 01:13 |
| dtcrshr | in windows, a simple connection with the configurations works, but on ubuntu I cant save the connection, if it has no user | 01:13 |
| dtcrshr | the netbooks are with ubuntu 12.04 | 01:14 |
| dtcrshr | and I have two users, one admin and a regular user for the students | 01:14 |
| deadmund | dtcrshr: Log in as the regular user, make the configuration. It should auto-save | 01:14 |
| dtcrshr | so, if the connection gets created inside the admin user, and avaiable to all would be awesome. the users needed just to insert they user/pass | 01:14 |
| dtcrshr | deadmund: it saves the username | 01:15 |
| plikserver | yasrin | 01:15 |
| deadmund | dtcrshr: what username / password should the student be using to log into the machine? To log into the wifi? | 01:15 |
| plikserver | yes | 01:15 |
| dtcrshr | we user a radios centralized authentication | 01:17 |
| dtcrshr | the user database the students use to check out their notes and classes are used also for many purposes | 01:18 |
| dtcrshr | authenticating on the wifi as well | 01:18 |
| deadmund | dtcrshr: That doesn't answer my question? | 01:18 |
| dtcrshr | its email / passw | 01:18 |
| dtcrshr | something@somewhere.net | 01:18 |

| Fenixe | Hello. I have an acer 5560g laptop that is running EUFI/Securboot. Everytime I install ubuntu or even another version of windows, it corrupts the originally installed os(windows 7). | 01:18 |
| dtcrshr | the machine auto logs into a "lend" user | 01:19 |
| deadmund | dtcrshr: I mean. When they log into the machine, do they log in as different users (each kid is a different user) or does every kid use the same account on the machine? | 01:19 |
| dtcrshr | with no passwd | 01:19 |
| dtcrshr | they use the same account | 01:19 |
| Fenixe | Acer states I cannot disable EUFI and dual booting is not recommended. any suggestions around this? | 01:19 |
| dtcrshr | the ubuntu has 3 accounts enabled, the guest, "lend" and admin | 01:19 |
| deadmund | dtcrshr: So, log into that account, log onto the wifi. and the settings you used to log onto the wifi will be saved. | 01:19 |
| dtcrshr | admin has passwd | 01:19 |
| deadmund | dtcrshr: log in as 'lend' and configure the wifi | 01:19 |
| dtcrshr | yes I did that. but on the first try, on the lend user, it asks for the admin passwd | 01:19 |
| dtcrshr | so, after reboot, the lend user try to autenticate on the wireless with a saved user | 01:20 |
| dtcrshr | prompts only for the passwrd | 01:20 |
| deadmund | dtcrshr: It will ask for the admin password the first time to save the wifi password | 01:20 |
| dtcrshr | yes, thats ok | 01:20 |
| dtcrshr | but on the second user that will use the netbook, will have to use both his user and passwd | 01:20 |
| dtcrshr | ubuntu is saving the user always | 01:20 |
| dtcrshr | and if i try to edit the connection, if i delete the user the save button is disabled | 01:20 |
| deadmund | dtcrshr: I'm afraid I don't know | 01:22 |
| dtcrshr | thats ok deadmund im searching for about some time | 01:24 |
| wilee-nilee | dtcrshr, The wifi in the admin seting has a allow all users make sure that is checked. | 01:24 |
| dtcrshr | yeah, its checked | 01:25 |

| wilee-nilee | Argorok, Do you realy need a wubi install it is not designed for more then a try out option. | 01:26 |

| burritoMachine | is anybody in here familiar with installing freebasic, glade, and glade2bas for making freebasic gui apps? | 01:30 |
| wilee-nilee | Argorok, You are not the first to request this option there is info on the web, this channel rarely advises on wubi so the help is sparse here is all. | 01:30 |
| Hatori | burritomachinee, maybe .... Have you try it to install ? | 01:31 |
| burritoMachine | Hatori i've compiled freebasic and installed glade, but i can't figure out what to do with the glade2bas.. the manual says to extract and compile it in the freeBasic source directory. But, I don't know what that means. That, and the archive already contains an executable in it. | 01:32 |
| burritoMachine | when they say source directory, i assume it mean the dir i create from the extracted source code, but the manual already had me to compile freebasic beforehand | 01:33 |

| paul__ | hi, looking to set a default interface on a user basis? | 01:37 |
| paul__ | I have three internet connections, and three interfaces | 01:37 |
| paul__ | I'd like user1 -> inet1 user2 -> inet2 user3 -> inet3 | 01:38 |
| Jordan_U | paul__: That should be trivial with network-manager, as interface settings are per-user by default. | 01:38 |
| Jordan_U | paul__: Unless you want multiple users to be able to use interfaces at the same time, in which case you'll have to deal with network-namespaces which 1: Are not easy to configure and 2: I know little about myself. | 01:39 |
| paul__ | is network-manager a gui based package? (I'm running headless server) | 01:39 |
| ActionParsnip | paul__: you can use /etc/network/interfaces file, or wicd-curses (after uninstalling network manager) | 01:40 |

| paul__ | is the routing table not global? | 01:54 |
| paul__ | this isnt going to work when 3 users are active consequtively | 01:54 |
| rob_p | paul__: Ahh... consecutively. | 01:55 |
| rob_p | paul__: Yeah, you're gonna have to do something base on uid... | 01:55 |
| paul__ | indeed | 01:55 |
| rob_p | paul__: I'll give it some thought but right now, my mind is on the walnut brownies I just baked...'n I'm hungry! :) | 01:57 |
| Sith_Lord | paul__: check out the owner module in iptables documentation | 01:58 |
| ib_mobile | Sokel : thanks but i did that already. Lots of talk involving mounting an array that didnt auto mount, but my situation is more complex. I have a drive from a machine that died that i want to mount on a new host that already has its own array and i dont want to screw anything up here | 01:58 |
| Sokel | So basically what you're saying is... | 02:00 |
| Sokel | You're trying to add to the array. | 02:00 |
| BlackFerdyPT | how can I make ubuntu load the vesa driver instead of the noveau one? (in the live cd and after install) | 02:00 |
| Sokel | What's hard about putting the drive in... and mounting it later? You don't have to worry about adding to the array and "messing anything up" | 02:01 |
| Sokel | It isn't going to happen. | 02:01 |
| ib_mobile | No want to activate an array from a drive i pulled out of a dead machine, i see the arrays from the new and old drives in /proc/mdstat | 02:02 |
| Laurelai | im trying to customize a live cd using this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization and im wondering where the default firefox bookmarks are stored so i can change them | 02:03 |
| ib_mobile | But i think they had the same device name so cant figure out how to mount the drive i added | 02:03 |
| TJ- | ib_mobile: Instead of using "mdadm -A -n <name>..." use "mdadm -A -u <UUID> ..." - the uuid's should be unique even if the names are the same | 02:05 |
| wilee-nilee | Laurelai, There is a #firefox channel I suspect you will be more successful there. ;) | 02:09 |
| Laurelai | since its firefox's behavior on the ubuntu live cd i dont see how | 02:10 |
| wilee-nilee | Laurelai, Just a suggestion. | 02:10 |
| wilee-nilee | Firefox is pretty much the same no matter the OS it is in. | 02:11 |

| webfox | wilee-nilee, ok, thank you. | 03:03 |
| EoN | i dunno. gnome seems kind of 'busy' to me | 03:07 |
| EoN | why does stuff keep moving around etc. how can i just restore/minimise/maximise a window? | 03:08 |
| datruth | ipad 3 or galaxy note? | 03:08 |
| Martell | ubuntu tablet | 03:08 |
| wilee-nilee | EoN, You can install the gnome-tweak-tool and open it with tweak-tool and add all the buttons to the window header. | 03:11 |
| wilee-nilee | EoN,takes a bit getting used to but is a usable desktop for me. | 03:12 |
| EoN | wilee-nilee: and you don't find unity usable? | 03:13 |
| wilee-nilee | EoN, I used it for about a year and a half and still do sometimes cube and all, but I find gnome 3 nicer. YOU should also have the gnome-fallback in that dropdown it is a similar to gnome 2 setup | 03:14 |
| bttf | dudes, rhythmbox is so ugly, whats a good lookin audio player out there | 03:14 |
| bttf | hate to mention anything affiliated with windows but something similar to winamp would be ideal | 03:14 |
| EoN | ugh, winamp is so ugly | 03:15 |
| EoN | what about songbird? is that still around? | 03:15 |
| wilee-nilee | bttf, YOu might look through the software center and see whats there and install and remove till you find what works for you. | 03:15 |
| bttf | yes, i might do that | 03:15 |
| EoN | wilee-nilee: hmm. i'm pretty new to using linux on the desktop. i can't help but wonder if i gave unity time i might be able to get used to the workflow | 03:16 |
| bttf | i might also go into some IRC channels and ask people for their personal opinions before that | 03:16 |
| EoN | i wonder if it's any less efficient than gnome-3 once you work your way around things? | 03:16 |
| wilee-nilee | EoN, Probably it is okay just not my choice, I have nothing negative to say about it really. ;) | 03:16 |
| bunni1987 | does anyone know how to get the connection 1 back on the network list (wired) on ubuntu 12.04 | 03:17 |
| EoN | unity seems a little bit more 'polished' asthetically. but maybe it's less functional? | 03:17 |
| wilee-nilee | EoN, It is a matter of personal choice really. | 03:17 |
| wilee-nilee | EoN,THere are about a choice of 50 desktops in all really. | 03:18 |
| EoN | yeah, too many choices for my liking :( | 03:21 |
| wilee-nilee | bttf, YOU can do that but be prepared to be ridiculed. ;) | 03:21 |
| wilee-nilee | along with some that will give there choice. | 03:22 |
| wilee-nilee | their* | 03:22 |
| EoN | i honestly can not believe there aren't minimise/maximise buttons by default in gnome3. sigh. | 03:23 |
| EoN | and i was critical of mac's use of their maximise button. AT LEAST THEY HAVE ONE. what is wrong with ppl :( | 03:23 |
| wilee-nilee | EoN, YOU can right click it to minimize | 03:24 |
| EoN | :| | 03:25 |
| bunni1987 | hi can anyone tell me how to get the conection 1 working on connection options in ubuntu 12.04 | 03:25 |
| bunni1987 | can anyone tell me how to get the connection symbol back on the top bar of ubuntu 12.04 | 03:28 |
| WHOisAmanda | will someone be willing to remote control my ubuntu 12.04 and help me set up two system paths cause i have been trying for 5 days and still can't get it done | 03:28 |
| === rofl is now known as Tux | ||
| WHOisAmanda | so what does anybody say | 03:29 |
| wilee-nilee | bunni1987, The details to its disappearance might be relevent | 03:29 |
| Hatori | whoisamanda,what you mean with system path? | 03:30 |
| WHOisAmanda | yea i need to set up two system paths | 03:30 |
| bunni1987 | ok sorry lol ok so the symbol went away and i only have a proxy and i used to have a wired connection yesterday i dont know what happened since then | 03:30 |
| === EoN_ is now known as EoNbuntu | ||
| Hatori | whoisamanda, describe more detail? | 03:31 |
| EoNbuntu | is there any UI/windows management settings in default gnome 3? or do you need tweak? | 03:31 |
| EoNbuntu | just wondering if theres any basic options | 03:31 |
| backu | Hello? | 03:31 |
| backu | I could use help, I need a lot of help. | 03:31 |
| WHOisAmanda | i will give you a picture of where my folders are located will that help | 03:31 |
| backu | Hello? | 03:32 |
| cfhowlett | !details|backu: | 03:32 |
| ubottu | backu:: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 03:32 |
| Hatori | hello backu, maybe you should more detail on ypur problems? | 03:32 |
| backu | Anyone who can help me install Minecraft? It won't let me mark minecraft.jar as executable. | 03:32 |
| backu | It's not about the game, it's about it won't let me mark ANYTHING as executable. | 03:32 |
| Songcat | [21:14] <bttf> dudes, rhythmbox is so ugly, whats a good lookin audio player out there -- I really like Clementine! Totem can play music, too, I guess. Also Amarok looks kind of nise but it's confusing for doing things. Banshee exists? I think it looks worse than Rhythmbox, though. | 03:32 |
| backu | I run Xubuntu. | 03:32 |
| bunni1987 | wilee-nilee- also i cant get to connection options it has completley disapeared | 03:33 |
| Hatori | backu, you can give a user executable flag on that jar files | 03:33 |
| backu | How so? | 03:33 |
| wilee-nilee | bunni1987, I would not know where to start to be honest. ;) | 03:33 |
| bunni1987 | ok thankyou | 03:33 |
| Hatori | backu,xubuntu or lubuntu,or others was not a big problems | 03:33 |
| backu | Could you show me how? | 03:34 |
| Songcat | *nice | 03:34 |
| WHOisAmanda | first folder | 03:34 |
| WHOisAmanda | http://i.imgur.com/zXVRk.png | 03:34 |
| Hatori | backu chmod u+x somefile.jar should do | 03:34 |
| backu | Eh? | 03:35 |
| backu | I'm new to Linux, sorry | 03:35 |
| Hatori | whoisamanda, sorry, i'm sit on handheld devices ... And can't look at your images | 03:35 |
| backu | Would I do that with Terminal? I don't understand | 03:36 |
| WHOisAmanda | damn | 03:36 |
| WHOisAmanda | not a android or iphone | 03:36 |
| Hatori | whoisamanda, maybe just describe could give me a clue | 03:36 |
| wilee-nilee | WHOisAmanda, Have you tried #android you're trying to have a android control right? | 03:37 |
| Hatori | whoisamanda, actually, i can open your link given, but it was too hard to do | 03:37 |
| WHOisAmanda | i need to set up two paths for the sdk | 03:37 |
| backu | Could you explain further, Hatori? I don't know what chmod is | 03:37 |
| WHOisAmanda | i am in as root | 03:37 |
| EoNbuntu | how come ubuntu software center can only see netbeans IDE 7.0.1 when it's up to 7.2.0 ? | 03:38 |
| cfhowlett | EoNbuntu: things take time. Feel free to DL and install netbeans directly from their site if you just MUST have the latest and greatest shiny new version... | 03:38 |
| wilee-nilee | EoNbuntu, THe software center should be showing what has been reiterated by canonical for ubuntu | 03:38 |
| backu | ._. | 03:39 |
| backu | How do I use chmod u+x | 03:39 |
| WHOisAmanda | #android | 03:39 |
| EoNbuntu | backu: type the command "chmod u+x yourfilename.jar" | 03:39 |
| EoNbuntu | backu: which is what hatori already said. you type that in terminal. | 03:40 |
| WHOisAmanda | went 2 andrid chanel if i can't get it i will be back | 03:40 |
| EoNbuntu | in the directory that your file exists. why are you using linux if you dont know basic linux? just use something that's not so conveluded and comlicated to use like linux | 03:40 |
| backu | I did, and it doesn't do anything | 03:40 |
| backu | Is that it? | 03:40 |
| EoNbuntu | what doesn't do anything? | 03:40 |
| backu | I type it in the terminal, it accepts it, but doesn't say anything about it | 03:41 |
| backu | Did it work? | 03:41 |
| backu | Do I have to give it a path to the file, or...? | 03:41 |
| wilee-nilee | EoNbuntu, Says the person who had to ask about latest versions lol. | 03:41 |
| EoNbuntu | wilee-nilee, lol | 03:42 |
| wilee-nilee | ;) | 03:42 |
| backu | IT WORKED! | 03:42 |
| backu | OH MY GOD, I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH. | 03:42 |
| backu | THANK YOU, I REALLY APPRECIATE IT. | 03:42 |
| FloodBot1 | backu: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:42 |
| EoNbuntu | wilee-nilee, i can work things out. but i'm just trying to guage whether it's feasible to use linux as a development environment. and when simple things like the latest popular netbeans osftware isnt available | 03:42 |
| EoNbuntu | or when there isn't maximise and minimise buttons, and just common sense things, it doesnt look good :( | 03:42 |
| wilee-nilee | EoNbuntu, Ah, you have to remember your opinions are yours, use what works for you. | 03:43 |
| EoNbuntu | i've just spent some time learning osx (after 15+ years of windows), im wondering if it will be worth learning a new os again. | 03:43 |
| EoNbuntu | cause osx kind of bugs me | 03:43 |
| EoNbuntu | wilee-nilee, the thing with linux, is i know that you can change anything you want, customise stuff etc. but it woudl be nice if things were more streamlined. i mean seriously, who on earth said 'yeah, we dont need minimise & maximise buttons'. why would anyone do that? | 03:44 |
| Songcat | EoNbuntu supposedly the rationale is that they're trying to get rid of minimizing and maximizing entirely, and get rid of the desktop. I guess the people writing Gnome 3 only ever have a single maximized window and nothing else??? I don't know, apparently people who mostly use one maximized window don't care. | 03:44 |
| EoNbuntu | i actually do prefer one maximised window at a time, but i still want the option. also why should i have to right click then select (two clicks) maximise instead of just one button click | 03:45 |
| overclucker | death to floating windows | 03:45 |
| wilee-nilee | EoNbuntu, I know I add the buttons first thing and move on. ;) I started on Linux so I'm used to tweaking it to my prefrences. | 03:45 |
| aitaix9 | Anyone successful getting a Samsung Galaxy S3 to work with Ubuntu? | 03:45 |
| EoNbuntu | wilee-nilee, fair enough. i just downloaded tweak. | 03:45 |
| EoNbuntu | wilee-nilee, i wonder why they didnt add that option to default settings? | 03:46 |
| wilee-nilee | EoNbuntu, I suspect that is on the web somewhere. | 03:46 |
| EoNbuntu | tbh i would RATHER use linux than osx if it's feasible | 03:47 |
| ganjaman | hello | 03:48 |
| EoNbuntu | hello sir | 03:48 |
| cfhowlett | ganjaman: greetings | 03:48 |
| wilee-nilee | ire | 03:49 |
| ganjaman | Welcome to the world of Ubuntu and Linux :) | 03:49 |
| wilee-nilee | irie rather | 03:50 |
| ganjaman | I think Ubuntu should split from Debian in one way servers ( go Red Hat) | 03:50 |
| EoNbuntu | lol! | 03:51 |
| wilee-nilee | and pixies should setup my computer | 03:51 |
| ganjaman | Ive been a server admin for years, used Debian as desktop but not server | 03:51 |
| EoNbuntu | i think you may have been smoking a bit too much of tha ganja, man | 03:51 |
| ganjaman | httpd > apache2 | 03:51 |
| cfhowlett | !ot|ganjaman: Please discuss your ubuntu issues. Opinions are welcome in the offtopic channel | 03:52 |
| ubottu | ganjaman: Please discuss your ubuntu issues. Opinions are welcome in the offtopic channel: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 03:52 |
| ganjaman | just the service diffs are a pain | 03:52 |
| EoNbuntu | hey, the fonts on my ubuntu/gnome 3 look a bit weird. they're kind of too large or something. it looks much slicker in mac. is there a way i can fix it? | 03:52 |
| ganjaman | sorry | 03:52 |
| ActionParsnip | EoNbuntu: use ubuntu-tweak and tweak the font rendering | 03:52 |
| ganjaman | who cares about fonts lol, or have I done too much headless? | 03:53 |
| ActionParsnip | ganjaman: users with desktop OSes do | 03:53 |
| ganjaman | My terminal > x11 even on desktop | 03:54 |
| ActionParsnip | ganjaman: as you can tell by the 'gnome' bit, so is completely different to a headless system, isn't is? | 03:54 |
| EoNbuntu | is tab auto-completion meant to work in terminal? doesn't seem to be | 03:55 |
| ActionParsnip | EoNbuntu: if you run: source ~/.bashrc does it work ok? | 03:55 |
| ganjaman | it is yes, but terminal rules ! | 03:55 |
| Songcat | EoNbuntu it is meant to! Does it work if you press tab repeatedly? Sometimes mine doesn't unless I press it a lot. | 03:56 |
| DancingBear | EoNbuntu: vim /etc/X11/Xorg.conf ---> look for section Monitor: add something like the following: Option "DPI" "96 x 96" | 03:56 |
| ActionParsnip | EoNbuntu: if my command fixes it we can make it permanent :) | 03:56 |
| EoNbuntu | hmmm yes it does work with source ~/.bashrc | 03:56 |
| MonkeyDust | ganjaman this is the support channel, guess #ubuntu-offtopic is what you want | 03:56 |
| DancingBear | that should fix the fonts being too large | 03:56 |
| EoNbuntu | no wait. i mean, when i type ~./bashr<tab> it auto completes | 03:57 |
| ganjaman | Im here to help > MonkeyDust | 03:57 |
| EoNbuntu | but when i type ./netbean<tab> it doesnt? | 03:57 |
| ActionParsnip | EoNbuntu: if you run: ls do you see the filename? | 03:57 |
| ganjaman | I just love Linux and am more bash than x11 | 03:57 |
| EoNbuntu | ActionParsnip, yep. im in the ~/Downloads directory | 03:58 |
| ActionParsnip | EoNbuntu: is the file marked executable? | 03:58 |
| ActionParsnip | EoNbuntu: the name will be green if it is | 03:58 |
| EoNbuntu | nope. it's a .sh file. i just downloaded it | 03:59 |
| DancingBear | EoNbuntu: chmod +x filename | 03:59 |
| DancingBear | then try again | 03:59 |
| EoNbuntu | netbeans-7.2-ml-php-linux.sh | 03:59 |
| ganjaman | he already said it was executable | 03:59 |
| EoNbuntu | i said 'nope' | 03:59 |
| EoNbuntu | that works DancingBear :) ty | 04:00 |
| DancingBear | no | 04:00 |
| DancingBear | np* | 04:00 |
| ganjaman | thats why then auto complete looks in env and incluudes executables | 04:00 |
| EoNbuntu | ganjaman, that must be some good ganja... man | 04:00 |
| ganjaman | EoNbuntu it good but not as good as Linux | 04:01 |
| ActionParsnip | ganjaman: obviously wasn't :) | 04:02 |
| ActionParsnip | ganjaman: wasn't executable, that is | 04:02 |
| ganjaman | actionparsnip :) | 04:03 |
| icedtea | whats the ubuntu package developing channel again? | 04:04 |
| ActionParsnip | icedtea: #ubuntu-dev maybe | 04:04 |
| icedtea | only one person in there ;) | 04:04 |
| MonkeyDust | it's #ubuntu-devel, but that's not a support channel | 04:05 |
| ActionParsnip | !develop | 04:07 |

| abbas_ | guys, i added a vpn account in 12.04 yesterday and it'd display if i click on networking icon in top right | 04:08 |
| abbas_ | now it isnt there anymore | 04:08 |
| abbas_ | if i go to properites and then vpn tab, i can see the connectino but the 'shortcut' seems to be gone from top right networking icon-right click menu :( | 04:09 |
| icedtea | I'll give #ubuntu-devel a shot | 04:11 |

| abbas_ | why does somethign like that break | 04:14 |

| abbas_ | otherwise i havent had any 'badware' mishaps since XP | 04:17 |

| cirwin | any ideas? | 04:17 |
| abbas_ | win7 is definitely way way more solid and having dne most of my devving in ubuntu for last few months bec ause of job req | 04:18 |

| ActionParsnip | cirwin: well, restart pulseaudio (happens automagically) | 04:22 |
| wilee-nilee | abbas_, Just dual boot use the windows and open source when appropriate. ;) | 04:22 |
| cirwin | sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio restart doesn't help | 04:22 |
| ActionParsnip | cirwin: also in the sound options app, make sure the right sound device is set for output | 04:22 |
| ActionParsnip | cirwin: killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.pulse* | 04:22 |
| cirwin | ActionParsnip: that seems to have helped a bit; mplayer is now trying | 04:23 |
| cirwin | (before it would just exit) | 04:23 |

| Adran | In the newest dovecot package, where is the equivalent default auth located or socket listening? | 04:35 |
| Viashino | anyone use samba (or something else) to connect to Windows AD domain? | 04:36 |
| Viashino | i am curious how effective it is | 04:36 |
| Adran | Viashino: Samba4 is effective | 04:37 |
| Adran | samba3 isn't so much | 04:37 |
| Viashino | do you have to do a lot of rigamarole to use shares | 04:37 |
| Adran | no | 04:37 |

| ganjaman | only thing I know about postfix is searching sppam | 04:47 |
| cellofellow | I'm not really a fan of email servers. For one, if you run your own SMTP on a dynamic IP most email hosts block you, you have to relay. :( | 04:48 |
| Adran | this isn't a dynamic ip, however the fact the docs are wrong seems a bit silly. | 04:48 |
| ganjaman | mailservers external IP | 04:49 |
| Adran | i know there was a somewhat recent upgrade of dovecot and that the configuration files changed, however the lack of anything similar to what the docs show is strange. | 04:49 |
| ganjaman | I will get banned/baited but thats why Rd hat are best for server (CentOS) | 04:49 |
| wilee-nilee | !best | 04:51 |
| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 04:51 |
| ganjaman | or LTS updates wont break shit then | 04:51 |
| wilee-nilee | shucks back to ignore ganjaman hehe | 04:52 |
| ganjaman | If you can master a Linux box use Gentoo, If your getting there Slackware. If your coming from windows Ubuntu) | 04:53 |

| hmmwhatsthisdo | Is there a program for *NIX that's equivalent to the Windows program Sandboxie? | 05:00 |
| hmmwhatsthisdo | (application sandboxing) | 05:00 |
| wilee-nilee | hmmwhatsthisdo, Some OS have sandboxes | 05:00 |
| ganjaman | Linux > windows (being a windows user searching for free software can be bad, and the reason they use that resource hogging AV) | 05:00 |
| hmmwhatsthisdo | wilee-nilee: for Ubuntu, then. | 05:01 |
| wilee-nilee | hmmwhatsthisdo, Nothing in the repos, but there are methods, I'm not your best source on this though. | 05:02 |
| ganjaman | sanboxes yea bsd has better ones than Linux chroot but who gets most infected windows? | 05:02 |
| hmmwhatsthisdo | ganjaman: not for virus protection, more for making a program unaware I'm actually running 4 copies of it | 05:03 |
| williamherry | any similar tools in ubuntu as Alfred in MAC? | 05:03 |
| theadmin | williamherry: Tell us what it does | 05:03 |
| williamherry | theadmin: quick switch application | 05:03 |
| ganjaman | Viruses dont infect Linux/Unix/BSD because our OS runs under proper privilages | 05:04 |
| theadmin | williamherry: Err... uh... I'm not sure I understand, like, Alt-Tab? | 05:04 |
| hmmwhatsthisdo | ganjaman: I know, it's not for virus protection | 05:04 |
| williamherry | theadmin: some key weak it up and type a few work of application to switch to that app | 05:04 |
| hmmwhatsthisdo | although, it does isolate all of a program's files in a neat container and makes it easy to wipe a program out of existence | 05:05 |
| theadmin | williamherry: Oh that, sure, just hit the Super key (normally has a Windows logo on it) and start typing | 05:05 |
| williamherry | for instance, shift + space to wake it up, type 'T' to switch to terminal, | 05:05 |
| theadmin | williamherry: That's in Ubuntu though, doesn't work in variants | 05:05 |
| ganjaman | thats what protects us as well as no complete computer nood uses Linux | 05:06 |
| ganjaman | nob* | 05:06 |
| ganjaman | noob* (this keyboard is getting thrown!) | 05:07 |
| IdleOne | ganjaman: Aside from random unhelpful commentary, do you have anything helpful to add to support questions being asked? | 05:07 |
| williamherry | theadmin: similar but that thing in ubuntu is more like to launch app, I want if one already launched, switch to it, if not, launch, | 05:07 |
| theadmin | williamherry: I think it does that | 05:07 |
| ganjaman | IdleOne not really but has anybody else? Theres been no questions asked? | 05:08 |
| williamherry | theadmin: really, didn't know that, how to make it switch not launch? | 05:08 |
| IdleOne | ganjaman: others are not being random, you are. Please stop. | 05:08 |
| ganjaman | IdleOne understood | 05:09 |
| theadmin | williamherry: I'm not sure, I don't use it to be honest, doesn't it do that by default? I always thought it does but I never really checkee | 05:09 |
| theadmin | s/checkee/checked/ | 05:09 |
| ganjaman | man sed | 05:09 |
| williamherry | theadmin: thanks any way, I searched and kupfer seem more like it | 05:10 |

| sonoma_wine | I can get into an older kernel. But the resolution is wrong. the screen is about 2/3 the size of my display | 05:15 |
| WHOisAmanda | well i can't fix it myself | 05:15 |
| ganjaman | sooma_wine does alt+f7 or f8 do anything? | 05:15 |
| theadmin | WHOisAmanda: That's okay right now, PM me and I'll help | 05:16 |
| sonoma_wine | f8 gives me "the file /var/log/syslog changed disk | 05:16 |

| sawrubh | Hi. Does Ubuntu 12.10 have any support for detection and automatic switching between dual gpus or nvidia gpu's with optimus technology rather than having to use the fallback method of using projects like | 05:30 |
| sawrubh | Bumblebee, because I have a Nvidia GT540M and I am using BOINC and it doesn't detect | 05:30 |
| sawrubh | any gpu's in the system :s | 05:31 |
| sawrubh | It's a real pain to install Nvidia drivers which are available from the official website, manually since it requires a lot of x server config twakings | 05:31 |
| sawrubh | s/twakings/tweakings/g | 05:32 |
| ganjaman | shows Ive never been a gamer only hardware probs I ever had with Linux is modems | 05:32 |
| sawrubh | I remember, in 11.04, people faced all kind of problems with installing Gnome and then the good Ubuntu folks decided to support it from the official ppa and then everything was good | 05:33 |
| ActionParsnip | sawrubh: Quantal is offtopic here until release day | 05:33 |
| sawrubh | ActionParsnip: whoops. | 05:33 |
| ActionParsnip | sawrubh: it is supported in #ubuntu+1 til then | 05:33 |
| ganjaman | ActioParsnip +1 (hes a top guy) | 05:35 |
| sawrubh | I hope this one isn't off the topic : I want to install the official nvidia drivers manually and I was daunted from what was presented online. Is there something I am missing or is there some relatively simpler solution ? | 05:36 |
| ActionParsnip | sawrubh: you can add the xorg updates ppa, less fresh more stable. Gives the 304 driver | 05:37 |
| jorma | amuja... | 05:38 |
| sawrubh | ActionParsnip: does that driver work with dual gpus. I mean can I then stop using Bumblebee and the 304 driver would plainly handle it or will I have to continue using Bumblebee ? | 05:38 |
| sawrubh | ActionParsnip: should I uninstall Bumblebee and all the stuff that came with it and then do this ? | 05:39 |
| ganjaman | sarubh what broke? | 05:40 |
| sawrubh | also, will it automatically stop using Nouveau and use the nvidia driver or will I have to do it manually ? | 05:40 |
| sawrubh | ganjaman: nothing broke, just that my experience with getting linux to know that I have a gt540m hasn't worked so far | 05:41 |
| ganjaman | gfx eww | 05:41 |
| ganjaman | stop using the latest cards rich boy lol#1 | 05:42 |
| Aravoth | Can someone help me? | 05:42 |
| theadmin | ganjaman: Stop being unhelpful. | 05:42 |
| theadmin | Aravoth: What's your problem? | 05:42 |
| Kheo | hello everyone I have some questions..I have a new server and I want to put back my websites and my data base how can I do that ? | 05:42 |
| Aravoth | I installed ubuntu 12.04 using wubi and it won't load at all, I get weird graphical gliches and can't access anything in ubuntu, not even grub | 05:43 |
| Aravoth | I'm pretty new to linux... | 05:43 |
| theadmin | Kheo: Most of the web stuff would reside in your htdocs directory (or /var/www for instance), as for databases use mysqldump or whatnot | 05:43 |
| acu | is there any application that allows video chat with yahoo messenger users ? | 05:43 |
| sawrubh | ganjaman: :) | 05:44 |
| Kheo | theadmin: I've copy/paste the files on the /var/www but..do not work.. | 05:44 |
| Aravoth | I had it installed once before and it worked fine, but I screwed up a few things when I stupidly installed "startup-manager" | 05:44 |
| Kheo | theadmin: how can I get them back ?! | 05:44 |
| ganjaman | kheo whats your prob? | 05:45 |
| Aravoth | so I i did a fresh re-install and now I get a crazy graphical glich and can't acess anything in ubuntu at all | 05:45 |
| Kheo | I want to make my web sites work..on my apache | 05:45 |
| ActionParsnip | acu: there used to be gyache but I believe its dead | 05:45 |
| Kheo | I had a Server, and now I have a new installed one..and I want to make the web sites work as before. | 05:45 |
| Kheo | with data bases and all. | 05:45 |
| Kheo | I have them saved. | 05:46 |
| ganjaman | /var/www if it exists would be Apaches root but if Apache dont exist (figure it out) | 05:46 |
| Aravoth | I'm sure it has something to do with my nvidia video card, but I don't know how to fix it | 05:46 |
| acu | Aravoth: some laptops with ATI graphics interfaces show this, but it is usually after grub if I remember anyhow, without any access, it is tough, you might need to bootlive cd and see what is wrong, as it looks , you need to do a fresh reinstall - h | 05:46 |
| ActionParsnip | sawrubh: no idea i'm completely avoiding that technology as its a nasty hack and causes all kinds of hell in Linux | 05:46 |
| Kheo | I have /var/www and I copy/paste my old www folder into the new one. | 05:46 |
| Kheo | that's all ? | 05:46 |
| Aravoth | ok, I'll give that a shot | 05:46 |
| Aravoth | thank you | 05:46 |
| acu | Avaroth: do you have cli ? command line interface access (press CTRL F1 | 05:46 |
| ganjaman | kheo what do you need to restore? | 05:46 |
| theadmin | Kheo: That, and dump mysql databases if any... | 05:46 |
| Kheo | ganjaman: Read what I've told. | 05:47 |
| Kheo | theadmin: the web sites do not work.. | 05:47 |
| Kheo | theadmin: How can I get them back to work ? | 05:47 |
| ganjaman | kheo are you using Plesk or any other cps? | 05:48 |
| theadmin | Kheo: That's your problem, I don't know what you're talking about, I don't know your exact setup... But are HTTPD and MySQLd started? | 05:48 |
| Kheo | hmmmm | 05:48 |
| Aravoth | I didn't try that | 05:48 |
| Kheo | theadmin: what you do not understand ? | 05:48 |
| Aravoth | But I will right now | 05:48 |
| theadmin | Kheo: Well different websites set things up differently, so there's that... It may be using mySQL, it may be using a flatfile database, it may be using sqlite, it might not be using a database at all... | 05:49 |
| ActionParsnip | sawrubh: did you buy the system with the intention of installing Linux? | 05:49 |
| acu | ActionParsnip, thanks, I know gyache is available in Fedora, but I wonder if there is any .deb | 05:49 |
| ganjaman | lol @ theaddmin | 05:49 |
| Kheo | theadmin: First I want to get my websites back. | 05:49 |
| Kheo | theadmin: can you help ? | 05:49 |
| theadmin | Kheo: I just told you that I can't. Three times in a row >.< | 05:49 |
| Kheo | theadmin: I put them on var/www and they do not work. | 05:50 |
| Kheo | ok..somebody can help ? | 05:50 |
| ganjaman | kheo is Apache started? | 05:50 |
| Kheo | yes | 05:50 |
| sawrubh | ActionParsnip: :) , no I didn't but then I like Linux. btw I installed the xorg updates ppa and installed the nvidia-current. When I run nvidia-settings, it asks me to run nvidia-xconfig as root, but when I try to it says that I don't have it installed :s | 05:50 |
| ganjaman | whats the /etc/init.d/httpd(apache2) status show? | 05:51 |
| Kheo | what ? | 05:51 |
| Kheo | * Usage: /etc/init.d/apache2 {start|stop|graceful-stop|restart|reload|force-reload|start-htcacheclean|stop-htcacheclean|status} | 05:51 |
| ganjaman | Going bed! | 05:51 |

| Kheo | help ? | 05:52 |
| PaSsI_ | i am downloading virtual box from terminal but it seems that download has stopped in terminal...any ideas how to fix that? | 05:53 |
| Kheo | It's a simple thing..for a good linux user. I want to make my old www file on the new server can anyone help me ?!?!??!?!?!??!?!??!?!?!??!? | 05:53 |
| Kheo | ?!????????????????????? | 05:53 |
| Kheo | no one usefull in here..all waste of time.. | 05:53 |
| Kheo | I never get help in here. | 05:53 |
| theadmin | Kheo: for i in apache2 mysql ; do sudo service $i start ; done # To start apache and mysql. But if that doesn't help then you messed something up when transferring files. | 05:54 |
| ActionParsnip | Kheo: just copy it to the place of the standing folder, it will work | 05:54 |
| === PrAsHaNt is now known as PaSsI_ | ||
| Kheo | ActionParsnip: No it doesn't. | 05:55 |
| Kheo | theadmin: I just put the old www instate of the new www. | 05:56 |
| Kheo | what the hell I could messed ?! | 05:56 |
| PaSsI_ | download has stopped in terminal ...how to resume it? | 05:56 |
| theadmin | Kheo: How many times did I tell you to dump mysql databases | 05:56 |
| Kheo | what does it means ? | 05:56 |
| Kheo | I have all mysql databases. | 05:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Kheo: what do you see when you try?? Just saying 'it doesn't work' helps nobody. Most of all you | 05:57 |
| Kheo | I see nothing.. | 05:57 |
| theadmin | Kheo: Well, mysql databases can't be just "copied over" as files, you have to use specific commands ("mysqldump" and, if I recall right, "mysqlrestore") | 05:57 |
| Kheo | I've put my old www folder instate of the new www folder. | 05:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Kheo: so when you restart the httpd service then web browse to localhost, you get a white page? | 05:58 |
| Kheo | why the web sites don't show up ? | 05:58 |
| Kheo | yes. | 05:58 |

| theadmin | !lamp | Kheo | 05:59 |
| ubottu | Kheo: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

| apg | !patient | 06:05 |
| Kheo | Ubuntu Server | 06:05 |

| ActionParsnip | khno the server itself is up, and the hardware is running | 06:05 |
| Kheo | so can anyone can know linux in here ? | 06:05 |

| AresTheLion | Kheo, Which websites? | 06:06 |
| Kheo | never get help.. | 06:07 |
| Kheo | never.. | 06:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Kheo: then your issue is entirely with apache, it is supported here but the apache channel itself will have more accurate solutions as the users there are helping people with apache | 06:07 |
| Kheo | I did spend a lot of hours in here..never get 1 advice.. | 06:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Kheo: am I not advising now? | 06:07 |
| Kheo | AresTheLion: My old www.. | 06:07 |
| Kheo | ActionParsnip: thanks for redirecting me. | 06:07 |
| Kheo | I appreciate. | 06:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Kheo: there is a dedicated channel for the service you are having issues with, if you ask in there you will get more precise help | 06:07 |
| AresTheLion | Kheo, Please remember that the operating system, and everyone in this website donates their time for free. Sometimes we don't know the answers or aren't available. | 06:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Kheo: so what happened to ".never get 1 advice" | 06:08 |
| Kheo | then do not "donate" me your time. | 06:08 |
| sawrubh | ActionParsnip: thanks. Yeah I guess I should avoid it and hope for one day when things get fixed by themselves ;) | 06:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Kheo: again, petulant childish mentality | 06:08 |
| Kheo | ActionParsnip: ok do not "donate" me your time. thanks | 06:08 |
| Kheo | Anybody usefull in this channel ? | 06:08 |
| blackhole | kheo, sometimes you need to reboot yourself heeheehe | 06:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Kheo: ive donated all I can, good luck. | 06:09 |
| WHoisAmanda | Kheo that's what the hell they are here to do but they do not have to | 06:09 |

| ActionParsnip | sawrubh: its down to nvidia really, they chose to not suppot it initially but they joined the liuux foundation a while back so it may turn around | 06:09 |
| Kheo | why are so many in here and nobody can't help.. | 06:09 |
| Kheo | It's a WASTING OF time. | 06:10 |

| die-uh-ree-uh | but what?? | 07:17 |
| kamidi | die-uh-ree-uh: but it might fix your problem. assuming there is something that causes list index error | 07:17 |

| Snowie | Hi all. Read some articles today as part of my research for mobile support about port scanning. Decided to learn some more about it by scanning my home network. In the repos, it tells me nmap cannot be authenticated, and then the app want's root privilages. Any danger in this, or am i just being appropriately paranoid? | 07:20 |
| llutz_ | die-uh-ree-uh: next time just rename the directory, dont remove it | 07:20 |
| die-uh-ree-uh | okay | 07:21 |
| codefyre | Snowie , nmap needs root privilges for raw socket access | 07:21 |
| codefyre | to build custom syn packets | 07:22 |
| kamidi | llutz_: you're right. renaming is better option than removing. oops | 07:22 |

| Pre | Hello all, I have dual booted my system with ubuntu11.10 and win 7. I downloaded the Broadcom sta wireless driver, its connected with wifi now the problem is when i run ifconfig, I am not getting any wireless adapter listed there. how to get that Its listed there in the /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules . | 07:40 |
| Craig` | and they're not in temp, does this mean i've lost them? | 07:42 |
| codefyre | Craig`: the data should still be there, but i guess the filesystem deleted references to it while moving | 07:42 |
| Craig` | codefyre: is there any way I can fix this? | 07:43 |
| codefyre | the first thing you should do is remount the filesystem as readonly to avoid overwriting over them | 07:43 |
| codefyre | Craig`: ext3 or ext4 > | 07:44 |
| Craig` | it's an external hard drive, so i'm assuming ntfs | 07:44 |
| Craig` | the main computer is ext4, though. | 07:44 |
| codefyre | the data was being copied from ext4 to the external drive ? | 07:45 |
| Craig` | yeah | 07:45 |
| codefyre | than ext4 is from where it should be recovered | 07:45 |
| Craig` | it was about 70% complete, but the only files I could find (where they were in the first place) was those that hadn't been transferred | 07:45 |
| Craig` | codefyre: where should I be looking? | 07:45 |
| codefyre | how important is the data , if very important , than you should be talking to an expert | 07:46 |
| codefyre | in data-recovery before trying to recover data, its important to make an image of the filesystem | 07:46 |

| theplanet | is there a .. what do you call them .. apt repository for haskell | 07:47 |

| theplanet | with the latest binaries | 07:47 |
| Craig` | okay i'll try that codefyre | 07:49 |
| Craig` | codefyre: I can't unmount it because it says it's busy, i'm not intentially doing anything with it but I don't think it's stil moving the files | 07:51 |
| codefyre | Craig` , is the folder from which you lost the files mounted on a seprate partition | 07:52 |

| Zaeyx | I am just gonna throw this out there... there is a program in Ubuntu to install proprietary drivers | 08:34 |
| truexfan81 | that is why i like the nvidia installers for the 304 series drivers, it automatically blacklists nouveau | 08:35 |
| Woozie | eh, i used "additional drivers" from Ubuntu, i think, that's you're meaning? | 08:35 |
| Woozie | i used installer from NVIDIA, repo's, additional drivers menu | 08:36 |
| Woozie | nothing actually worked | 08:36 |

| EweR | is it ok to have mailserver and webserver on the same machine? | 08:37 |
| Woozie | bekks, i don't think so | 08:37 |
| truexfan81 | Woozie: the way i do it is using the official run files from the nvidia site | 08:37 |
| bekks | EweR: Depends on your overall setup. | 08:37 |
| bekks | truexfan81: Which will break with every kernel update. | 08:38 |
| EweR | bekks: vps ram:512mb hdd: 10gb | 08:38 |
| Woozie | i was reinstalling my system for a few (10? 15? i really don't know now) times | 08:38 |
| truexfan81 | bekks: the 304 series includes a dkms module to make it update to the new kernels | 08:38 |
| bekks | EweR: Thats no setup, that are hardware specifications. | 08:38 |
| Zaeyx | EweR its always better to run a single service on one server... if you must run multiple with one box I suggest researching one of three topics. App Armor, SE Linux, or virtualization | 08:38 |
| Zaeyx | Speaking from a security standpoint | 08:38 |
| bekks | from a security point of view, you missed grsec and hardened. selinux and apparmor are useless without a hardened system. | 08:39 |
| tapas | Zaeyx: hmm, one might like an SSH server alongside e.g. apache though ;D | 08:39 |
| truexfan81 | bekks: i have done 3 ubuntu kernel updates since the last time i ran the installer, hasn't been broken once | 08:39 |
| Zaeyx | Ssh is very secure | 08:39 |

| === diminoten is now known as t0mcat | ||

| bekks | Woozie: rmmod nouveau | 08:41 |
| Woozie | alright | 08:41 |
| Woozie | back in a minute, will instal nvidia drivers and i'll check rmmod | 08:41 |
| Zaeyx | Technically they do and though ssh doesn't secure your server. It is not a protocol associated with many vulnerabilities... I would trust it over the ftp apache combo | 08:42 |
| bekks | FTP? Lol. Even more insecure than a webserver. | 08:42 |
| bekks | Better use SFTP or FTPS. | 08:42 |
| Zaeyx | When it comes to multiple services on one box it happens all the time... look at LAMP... | 08:42 |
| Zaeyx | I just said ftp was insecure... >.> | 08:42 |
| tapas | :D | 08:43 |
| Zaeyx | But certain combos are less secure... email and web... anything to do with oracle or adobe... | 08:43 |

| brady | i once used a shell called litestep on windows that had a way i could right click on the desktop and have a configurable menu come up where i could navigate nested folders | 08:48 |
| brady | is it possible to do anything like that with ubuntu? | 08:49 |
| ardchoille | brady: I'm not sure I understand what you want | 08:50 |
| ardchoille | you want to navigate nested folders? | 08:50 |
| codefyre | i think he wants 'open in terminal' on folder right click | 08:51 |
| brady | you were able to right click , and have a menu come up , with folders you had designated as the parent folders, if you hovered the mouse over one, its contents would show, and you could hover the mouse over the next folder, you would do this until yo got down to your file | 08:51 |
| Zaeyx | So you want a fancy GUI/shell | 08:52 |
| ardchoille | ah | 08:52 |
| Cracked_Lucidity | if i wanted to install ubuntu onto a 16 gigabyte flash drive instead of a hard drive how would i do so? | 08:52 |

| ubottu | Cracked_Lucidity: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 08:53 |
| Zaeyx | Cgnome is the GUI of ubuntu | 08:53 |
| Zaeyx | Although then this dastardly thing called unity came along | 08:53 |
| ardchoille | Cracked_Lucidity: startup disk creator. I used it to make an ubuntu live usb | 08:53 |
| Cracked_Lucidity | k | 08:53 |
| brady | so is that a no in regards to them running concurrently? | 08:54 |
| Cracked_Lucidity | i love it when someone gives a straightforward answer | 08:54 |
| Zaeyx | Gnome is the desktop environment in many Linux distros | 08:54 |
| Zaeyx | And Ubuntu as well | 08:54 |
| IdleOne | Cracked_Lucidity: had you read the info I had the bot give you, you would have seen the answer | 08:54 |
| Zaeyx | It doesn't do exactly what you want | 08:54 |
| Zaeyx | Out of the box | 08:55 |
| brady | still dont know if they can run concurrently.. | 08:55 |
| IdleOne | Zaeyx: chat in #ubuntu-offtopic please, this channel is for support only. | 08:55 |
| Zaeyx | But with a little bit of scripting on your part I bet you could nail this "light step" or close to | 08:55 |
| Cracked_Lucidity | IdleOne: That is the answer i am reffering to | 08:55 |
| IdleOne | Cracked_Lucidity: I apologize for the attitude :/ | 08:55 |

| Woozie | http://puu.sh/1bUae | 09:46 |
| tapas | Woozie: it seems your nvidia driver just doesn't support your card.. | 09:47 |
| tapas | try these: | 09:48 |
| tapas | sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates | 09:48 |
| tapas | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-current | 09:48 |
| tapas | from here: http://www.noobslab.com/2012/06/nvidia-drivers-collection-for.html | 09:48 |
| tapas | maybe that one is more recent | 09:48 |
| Woozie | i have added that repo and installed driver with apt-get, so it's that driver ;c | 09:49 |
| tapas | Woozie: oh, wow, then maybe edit /etc/apt/sources.lst, remove that repo, purge the current nvidia-current package and install the normal one from ubuntu | 09:50 |
| tapas | Woozie: or didn't that work at all either? | 09:50 |
| Woozie | it didn't work either | 09:50 |
| tapas | Woozie: do you have an xorg.conf? | 09:50 |
| Woozie | i don't remember where it was, if it was in /etc/xorg - i don't have any | 09:51 |
| tapas | ok | 09:51 |
| Woozie | but i generated one with nvidia-xconfig aaaand nothing. | 09:51 |
| tapas | Woozie: try uninstalling all nvidia drivers and install nouveau | 09:52 |
| tapas | Woozie: maybe that works at least a little bit.. | 09:52 |
| Woozie | the problem is nouveau is not working very good, graphical glitches and GUI freezes aren't normal | 09:52 |
| Woozie | i didn't uninstalled nouveau now, but in pas i did that and nothing | 09:53 |
| Woozie | past* | 09:53 |

| tapas | "Hi, upgrading the kernal via the moun update manager did the work! Now the nVidia driver is working! | 09:55 |
| tapas | " | 09:55 |
| tapas | dunno what the moun update manager is though.. | 09:55 |
| Woozie | i have the newest kernel (3.2.0.31) | 09:55 |
| tapas | i think 3.4 is out in the wild already | 09:56 |
| Woozie | hmmm | 09:56 |
| tapas | actually 3.6 | 09:56 |
| tapas | Woozie: you can also try this: | 09:56 |
| Woozie | brb, i'll uninstall nvidia drivers, get into the GUI and update kernel | 09:56 |
| tapas | apt-get purge nvidia-current | 09:56 |
| tapas | Woozie: one moment.. | 09:57 |
| tapas | Woozie: you can try running the original nvidia driver installer | 09:57 |
| Woozie | i tried :C | 09:57 |
| tapas | Woozie: it's a shell script that builds the module.. | 09:57 |
| tapas | no dice either? | 09:57 |
| Woozie | yep | 09:57 |
| tapas | ok, trying a more recent kernel is worth a shot. | 09:57 |
| Woozie | as for now, i'll update kernel to 3.4 maybe | 09:57 |
| tapas | you'll need to add extra repos for that though i guess. | 09:57 |
| Woozie | so, uninstalling NVIDIA drivers now - be right back | 09:58 |

| txomon | (and configured) | 10:05 |
| hikmet | turkish q | 10:05 |
| hikmet | i selected turkish q | 10:05 |
| hikmet | at the beginn'ng | 10:05 |
| hikmet | should I install again | 10:06 |
| txomon | hikmet: sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration | 10:06 |
| hikmet | ok | 10:06 |
| Abbas| | guys | 10:07 |
| Abbas| | is there a place i can get ubuntu images form? that has squid ssl installed? | 10:07 |
| txomon | btw, if you google and put "how to change keyboard configuration ubuntu" I am sure it will show you pretty nice tutorials | 10:07 |
| Abbas| | my installed of ubuntu 12.04 keeps freezing (to death - hard reset only cure) everytime i try to update/ do something | 10:07 |
| txomon | Abbas|: ? | 10:07 |
| Zym | codefyre: am trying, but i run into a few problems... need to tinker a bit. thanks | 10:08 |
| txomon | Abbas|: did you modify /etc/apt/sources.list or something under /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 10:08 |
| txomon | ? | 10:08 |
| Abbas| | no | 10:08 |
| Abbas| | but the freezes are random | 10:08 |
| Abbas| | sometimes they happen 15mins in | 10:08 |
| Abbas| | sometimes 2mins in | 10:08 |
| txomon | Abbas|: nothing is random | 10:09 |
| Abbas| | and only mouse point moves, nothing clickable | 10:09 |
| Abbas| | i do alt+ctrl+del | 10:09 |
| Hatori | abbas, switch to console,and looks at your log | 10:09 |
| Abbas| | ctrl+esc | 10:09 |
| ircnode0 | is there someway to disable hardware accelaration in firefox? I tried graphically go to Adobe Flash Player Settings, but can't Disable hardware acceleration. | 10:09 |
| Abbas| | Hatori , i cant open anything when it freezes | 10:09 |
| txomon | any way, If you prefer to format I will guide you (many times is faster to format than to find the solution) | 10:09 |
| Abbas| | txomon | 10:10 |
| Abbas| | yeah i want to do that | 10:10 |
| txomon | Abbas|: but if you press ctrl+alt+f1 ? | 10:10 |
| Abbas| | but i was wondering if i can get image iwht squid ssl install | 10:10 |
| Abbas| | txomon i didtknow that shortcut, does it bring task manager? | 10:10 |
| Hatori | abbas, how about hit ctrl alt f1 | 10:10 |
| txomon | Abbas|: you don't understand how linux distros work | 10:10 |
| txomon | Abbas|: no, it brings you to a console | 10:10 |
| Abbas| | txomon yes thats why i am asking man | 10:10 |
| Abbas| | o | 10:10 |
| Abbas| | ok | 10:10 |
| Abbas| | but i wouldnt know what to do with console, i know only few commands | 10:10 |
| Abbas| | to install squid or tiny proxy | 10:11 |
| hikmet | which one should i choose_txomon | 10:11 |
| txomon | Abbas|: distros, like debian, ubuntu etc. Have a central archive where there are _a_ _lot_ of programs, that you can install or not | 10:11 |
| Abbas| | txomon i tried installing a few | 10:11 |
| Abbas| | but it seems i need to do like 10 commands | 10:12 |
| Abbas| | to get squid ssl | 10:12 |
| Abbas| | i got the basic squid up an drunning | 10:12 |
| hikmet | txomon | 10:12 |
| Abbas| | but its not ssl | 10:12 |
| Abbas| | and i also setup tiny proxy (but its too slow0 | 10:12 |
| MonkeyDust | Abbas| don't hit the enter key too often, it's getting a headache | 10:12 |
| txomon | all the system is modular, and created as packets, so if you want to install squid, check also squid-<tab><tab> to get sure there isn't a ssl package | 10:12 |
| Abbas| | i see | 10:13 |
| Abbas| | i'll try that | 10:13 |
| txomon | hikmet: the one you have installed | 10:13 |
| Abbas| | now i need to setup a fresh ubutnu installation | 10:13 |
| txomon | Abbas|: google: ubuntu download | 10:13 |
| Abbas| | txomon the iso i get form ubutnu site now, will it have all updates included? | 10:13 |
| knytm4r3 | @abbas not all | 10:13 |
| txomon | Abbas|: if connected to internet, instead of using the ones in the cds (outdated) will replace the ones that are newer | 10:14 |
| Abbas| | hmm hehe, yeah i checked in morning there were like 500mb update needed | 10:14 |
| Abbas| | but it freeze in middle | 10:14 |
| Abbas| | i hope i can fix squid ssl | 10:14 |
| Woozie | alright, i just reinstalled ubuntu and formatted whole hdd | 10:15 |
| txomon | Abbas|: search about apt-cache | 10:15 |
| Woozie | now i'm downloading 3.4 kernel files | 10:15 |
| txomon | Woozie: for what? | 10:15 |
| Abbas| | hmmm | 10:15 |
| hikmet | txomon my netbook is packard bell i cant see the keyboard for it | 10:15 |
| Hatori | abbas|..i think not squid or tiny proxt caused the freeze | 10:15 |
| Abbas| | yea hatori, i think so too | 10:15 |
| Abbas| | its some other app | 10:15 |
| txomon | hikmet: those are all generic ones, not particular ones | 10:15 |
| Woozie | i have serious problem with nvidia proprietary drivers | 10:15 |
| Abbas| | but i only download certify apps from ubuntu download center | 10:16 |
| Abbas| | no stranger app | 10:16 |
| Woozie | i had freezes of GUI which i didn't had before on Ubuntu | 10:16 |
| Woozie | after installing Mint it appeared | 10:16 |
| Abbas| | hmm | 10:16 |
| Abbas| | 3 other apps extra i have are screenshot one, download manager and torrent client | 10:16 |
| Woozie | so i cleaned the disk from Mint and installed clean Buntu | 10:16 |
| MonkeyDust | Woozie using Mint? | 10:16 |
| Abbas| | i think one of them is culprit | 10:16 |
| txomon | Woozie: i had something pretty similar, but in debian with a gtx260 | 10:17 |
| Woozie | freezes are gone for a moment, but now i'll install a newer kernel and try to install nvidia proprietary drivers | 10:17 |
| Woozie | if this will succeed on Ubuntu, i'll do the same for a new installation of Mint 13 Cinnamon | 10:18 |

| hikmet | ok thanks | 10:20 |
| txomon | google it, and it will bring you to a page that uses those packages, I don't recommend you to install it on hand downloading the .debs from brother.com | 10:21 |

| kolding | hello | 10:24 |
| himanshu_linux | is there any better way to make live CD ?? | 10:25 |
| LeMike | hi there. is there a possibility to create a file for a different usergroup? if I "sudo touch foo.bar" then it's own by root | 10:25 |
| himanshu_linux | other than unetbootin . | 10:25 |
| ardchoille | himanshu_linux: Startup Disk Creator | 10:25 |
| Abbas| | ardchoille what do you recommend for making usb flash drive setup? | 10:25 |
| Abbas| | i have old ubuntu in dual boot with win7 | 10:25 |
| txomon | Abbas|: np | 10:25 |
| Abbas| | i dont want to lose win7 | 10:26 |
| ardchoille | Abbas|: a usb live ubuntu environment? | 10:26 |
| Abbas| | but fresh ubuntu i install | 10:26 |
| txomon | Abbas|: then use whatever you want | 10:26 |
| Abbas| | side by side | 10:26 |
| Hatori | !info as | 10:26 |
| txomon | Abbas|: just don't erase the 2 windows partitions | 10:26 |
| ubottu | Package as does not exist in precise | 10:26 |
| ardchoille | I used Startup Disk Creator to make a live usb of ubuntu 12.04, works perfectly | 10:26 |
| Hatori | !info as86 | 10:26 |
| ubottu | Package as86 does not exist in precise | 10:26 |
| WarOfTheNerd | Abbas|, if you know how to partition, you just install without deleting the Windows partitions | 10:26 |
| Hatori | !info assembler | 10:26 |
| ubottu | Package assembler does not exist in precise | 10:26 |
| Hatori | !assembler | 10:26 |
| Abbas| | warOfTheNerd and windows 7 will be accessible from grub like always? | 10:26 |
| txomon | Hatori: stop it | 10:26 |
| Abbas| | with oeverwriting old ubutnu? | 10:27 |
| ardchoille | !msgthebot | Hatori | 10:27 |
| ubottu | Hatori: Please investigate with me only with "/msg ubottu Bot" or in #ubuntu-bots. Search for factoids with "/msg ubottu !search factoid". | 10:27 |
| txomon | Abbas|: of course | 10:27 |
| Abbas| | nice | 10:27 |
| WarOfTheNerd | Abbas|, if you're making a USB stick install, then it won't overwrite anything anyway | 10:27 |
| WarOfTheNerd | Abbas|, if you're installing to hard disk, you can upgrade the old Ubuntu install without ruining anything | 10:27 |
| Abbas| | warOfTheNerd, i want to usb disc for installaion setup, to hdd | 10:28 |
| Abbas| | WarOfTheNerd but old ubutnu freezes | 10:28 |
| Abbas| | i dont think it'll fix with upgrade | 10:28 |
| Abbas| | is grub stored on ubutnu partition? if i delte ubuntu partion from win7? | 10:28 |
| WarOfTheNerd | Abbas|, then reformat the Ubuntu partition on the partitioning screen, tell setup you want to do partitioning yourself | 10:28 |
| txomon | Abbas|: the idea is that windows 7 uses a 100mb partition at the beggining and then the system partition, ubuntu uses as many partitions as you want. People usually uses 3, one swap, other for /home and other for the rest (/) | 10:28 |
| Abbas| | ok | 10:29 |
| Abbas| | i'll ask for advice once my setup flash is ready | 10:29 |
| WarOfTheNerd | Abbas|, if you reformat the Ubuntu partition, and then proceed to install, it will detect Win7 and add it to GRUB as usual | 10:29 |
| Abbas| | http://i.imgur.com/oEgK5.jpg | 10:29 |
| Abbas| | ok | 10:29 |
| WarOfTheNerd | Abbas|, just make sure you have backed up any /home stuff if you don't have a separate /home on Ubuntu | 10:29 |
| Abbas| | i dont have anything imp on ubuntu | 10:30 |
| Abbas| | i only want squid ssl :) | 10:30 |
| txomon | ok | 10:30 |
| Abbas| | so my tv can stream via vpn | 10:30 |
| Abbas| | otherwise i have to buy vpn router for dd-wrt | 10:30 |
| WarOfTheNerd | Abbas|, then you're good to reformat the Ubuntu partition and just install cleanly as usual, so long as you don't touch the Win7 partitions, you'll be fine :) | 10:30 |
| Abbas| | ok :) ty i'll try not to ruin | 10:30 |
| Abbas| | WarOfTheNerd / txomon would u advise a server iso ? i thnk that has squid ssl preinstall? | 10:34 |
| Abbas| | it says its 2gb, | 10:34 |
| txomon | Abbas|: as I told you, all the imgs are the same, just install the packages | 10:34 |
| himanshu_linux | ardchoille : i am having problem while making live CD or live USB . when am use unetbootin to make it and reboot my system it says live cd configuration not present .. help me | 10:34 |
| Abbas| | ok txomon | 10:35 |
| MonkeyDust | himanshu_linux is it a live cd or usb? which one of the two? | 10:35 |
| txomon | Abbas|: what I would recommend you would be to use lubuntu, as it is very lighweight, and won't overload your computer much (no idea on how good it is) | 10:35 |
| Abbas| | is it gui? | 10:36 |
| Abbas| | i cant do much command line | 10:36 |
| txomon | Abbas|: yes, but the server version isn't | 10:36 |
| Abbas| | hmmmm | 10:36 |
| himanshu_linux | ardchoille : i have made both and tried .. it is not working . | 10:36 |
| txomon | Abbas|: the idea is that there exist metapackages, named lubuntu-desktop, ubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop that all of them install different guis | 10:37 |
| Woozie | i'm back with GUI and installed NVIDIA drivers | 10:37 |
| Woozie | and another problem | 10:37 |
| Abbas| | ah i see | 10:37 |
| tapas | Woozie: how did yu get it to work? | 10:37 |
| Abbas| | txomon i think i'll go with ubuntu fo rnow, so squid has no issue | 10:37 |
| Abbas| | i am too n0ob for advance | 10:37 |
| ardchoille | himanshu_linux: I know nothing about unetbootin, I use the Startup Disk Creator | 10:37 |
| Woozie | i actualised kernel to 3.4 | 10:37 |
| himanshu_linux | ardchoille : i am not able to install it from win7 too .. | 10:37 |
| txomon | so if you find that you make an installation any day that doesn't have any gui, just install any of them like apt-get install lubuntu-desktop | 10:37 |
| tapas | Woozie: ok.. | 10:37 |
| Abbas| | i see | 10:38 |
| Woozie | but now GUI works on VESA driver, and nvidia-settings saids i'm not using nvidia driver | 10:38 |
| ardchoille | himanshu_linux: I haven't used a Windows OS in ten years, so I won't be able to help with that either | 10:38 |
| Abbas| | txomon how do i popen task manager to kill task in ubuntu? | 10:38 |
| Abbas| | like alt ctrl del | 10:38 |
| Woozie | i'm trying to nvidia-xconfig now | 10:38 |
| himanshu_linux | ardchoille : me too .. my friend want help . :) | 10:38 |
| txomon | Abbas|: there isn't a real shortcut for it, but there is an app called system monitor (I think) | 10:38 |
| codefyre | Woozie: vesa is generic video driver | 10:38 |
| tapas | Woozie: what does your Xorg.0.log say now? | 10:39 |
| codefyre | it works with almost all graphic cards | 10:39 |
| Abbas| | oh | 10:39 |
| Abbas| | txomon and i think ubuntu ppl don tlike WINDOW key | 10:39 |
| Abbas| | i do window+d | 10:39 |
| Abbas| | it doesnt minimize all winodws :) | 10:39 |
| txomon | Abbas|: in gnome-shell you use windows key | 10:39 |
| Abbas| | ubuntu is gnome? | 10:40 |
| Woozie | now it saids "Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module." | 10:40 |
| txomon | and there are several shortcuts for it, but its name is meta key | 10:40 |
| MonkeyDust | Abbas| unity is gnome3 with eyecandy | 10:40 |
| txomon | Abbas|: it is ubuntu's DE | 10:40 |
| Woozie | alright, trying to nvidia-xconfig | 10:40 |
| Woozie | and reboot | 10:40 |
| tapas | Woozie: yeah, i guess your nvidia kernel package is for the wrong kernel.. | 10:40 |
| Abbas| | DE? | 10:40 |
| himanshu_linux | hi i am not able to install ubuntu 12.04 from win7 .. it give error while excuteing "wubi.exe" | 10:40 |
| Abbas| | desktop engine? | 10:40 |
| codefyre | envirmonet | 10:41 |
| himanshu_linux | need help .. | 10:41 |
| tapas | Woozie: try installing it manually.. | 10:41 |
| ilikethelongnick | after upgrade, ubuntu can not boot, only a '_' at screen, can anyone help me? | 10:41 |
| Abbas| | o | 10:41 |
| WarOfTheNerd | himanshu_linux, try running as administrator | 10:41 |
| MonkeyDust | !nomodeset > ilikethelongnick | 10:41 |
| ubottu | ilikethelongnick, please see my private message | 10:41 |
| Woozie | with .run file from nvidia site? | 10:41 |
| txomon | ilikethelongnick: try with single user mode | 10:41 |
| txomon | (the recovery) | 10:41 |
| tapas | Woozie: yep | 10:41 |
| Woozie | alright | 10:41 |
| WarOfTheNerd | himanshu_linux, honestly though, Wubi is a bad way to use Linux, even Ubuntu | 10:41 |
| Woozie | so now i'll purge the nvidia drivers | 10:42 |
| tapas | yeaarp | 10:42 |
| Woozie | brb | 10:42 |
| tapas | kk | 10:42 |
| bz0b | hey guys. i have a few questions about setting up HA on ubuntu 12.04 lts. anyone here have any experience with that? | 10:42 |
| tapas | bz0b: what's HA? | 10:42 |
| MonkeyDust | bz0b what's HA ? | 10:42 |
| himanshu_linux | WarofTheNerd : hmm | 10:42 |
| WarOfTheNerd | bz0b, as in High Availability? That and Ubuntu don't exactly mix. | 10:42 |
| bz0b | High Availablitiy | 10:42 |
| WarOfTheNerd | bz0b, speak to Canonical about getting support for that. They will provide all the help you need | 10:43 |
| MonkeyDust | what's High Availablity? | 10:43 |
| bz0b | Well I was going to use heartbeat and pacemaker | 10:43 |
| bz0b | really? | 10:43 |
| Abbas| | can someone plz point me how to make installation disc on flash drive | 10:43 |
| IdleOne | !usb | Abbas| | 10:43 |
| ubottu | Abbas|: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 10:43 |
| Hatori | warofthenerd, wubi was there for people coming from windows to try linux likes other windows application | 10:43 |
| ardchoille | Abbas|: use Startup Disk Creator, it's a gui and very easy | 10:43 |
| bz0b | WarOfTheNerd: How would I contact them? | 10:43 |
| Abbas| | ty IdleOne | 10:43 |
| Abbas| | ok | 10:43 |
| WarOfTheNerd | bz0b, have a look at canonical.com | 10:44 |
| profiler1982 | am have kazam problem in 11.10 can anybody help | 10:44 |
| WarOfTheNerd | bz0b, you could also fill out: http://www.ubuntu.com/business/services/contact | 10:45 |
| moment | why does gitosis make it impossible for me to log on with ssh? | 10:45 |
| moment | or git or whatever | 10:45 |
| WarOfTheNerd | bz0b, when it comes to mission-critical, don't skimp on support =] | 10:45 |
| bz0b | WarOfTheNerd: The problem with that is I have to have this done today and I don't think that gives me a large enough window of time to get support. | 10:46 |
| WarOfTheNerd | bz0b, ah, that's a bit tight. If you're not tied to any particular distro, you could always ask the #centos folks how you'd do it if you used their distro | 10:48 |
| ilikethelongnick | txomon thanks,but my ubuntu can't step into that interface | 10:48 |
| txomon | ilikethelongnick: ? | 10:48 |
| txomon | which interface? | 10:48 |
| WarOfTheNerd | bz0b, the reason I say this is because although Ubuntu is awesome, it isn't popular with large-scale clustering, HA or big private virt farms yet | 10:49 |
| bz0b | WarOfTheNerd: So basically I need to setup 2 hp servers with 24tb disk arrays that need to be clustered for HA, authenticated via AD, and setup with an NFS, AFP (netatalk), and Samba Share, and they all have to be highly available, and synced through both servers, and all authenticated with AD | 10:49 |
| WarOfTheNerd | bz0b, got a budget? If you need faster support you could ring up Red Hat and get a quote if Canonical support isn't quick enough | 10:50 |
| txomon | ilikethelongnick: did you use the nomode set? | 10:50 |
| txomon | nomodeset* | 10:50 |
| bz0b | Yes, It's probably along the lines of $500 USD | 10:51 |
| WarOfTheNerd | ouch | 10:51 |
| WarOfTheNerd | bz0b, if you need a free/community solution, you're probably better off with CentOS, they have people who deal with this sort of thing | 10:52 |
| bz0b | Exactly | 10:52 |
| bz0b | Thanks for your help WarOfTheNerd | 10:52 |
| Hatori | bz0b, actually tools you need to setup was all available on repos | 10:52 |
| ilikethelongnick | txomon i don't know how to say that situation，maybe i should print the screen first; just a black screen with a '_', no choose for me | 10:52 |
| hargut | hello | 10:52 |
| bz0b | Hatori: You mean heartbeat and pacemaker? | 10:53 |
| WarOfTheNerd | Hatori, knowing which packages isn't everything, he's got a lot to set up in one day without a good budget there | 10:53 |
| hargut | I've just installed ubuntu 12.04 and want to remove kdm from the starting procedure. How to remove kdm in ubuntu from startup? | 10:53 |
| Hatori | bz0b, and if you accept fully understand, samba4 can play a role for your AD | 10:53 |
| txomon | ilikethelongnick: the idea is that the kernel, at boot time, has some parameters, if you put nomodeset in those parameters, it usually works | 10:53 |
| Hatori | bz0b..and not relies on windows for ad | 10:54 |
| Rootbrian | As to why xorg is constantly fighting for resources and causing lag on #ubuntu when viewing videos in HTML5 or Flash, is there a reason? | 10:54 |
| Rootbrian | Like it's driving me up the wall monitoring it in a second tty. | 10:55 |
| Hatori | hargut,you can purge it | 10:55 |
| tapas | Rootbrian: i guess the video players aren't making use of acceleration infrastructure | 10:55 |
| tapas | Rootbrian: so the X server has to process every single frame to get it up on the screen | 10:55 |
| bz0b | Hatori: How so. The problem is we need to authenticate through AD for the network shares. | 10:55 |
| Rootbrian | Mine supports h.264 and x264 | 10:55 |
| MonkeyDust | bz0b https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ActiveDirectoryWinbindHowto | 10:56 |
| hargut | Hatori: I don't want to purge it, I only want to remove it from automatic startup. | 10:56 |
| Rootbrian | ATI HD 4650 graphics, that shouldn't be an issue. It plays 720p fine. | 10:56 |
| bz0b | MonkeyDust: What about centrify express? | 10:56 |
| tapas | Rootbrian: well, it depends on every piece in the chain... if one fails to use the acceleration infrastructure, things will be slow.. | 10:56 |
| MonkeyDust | bz0b don't know what that is | 10:56 |
| Rootbrian | but it occasionally will get so choppy. VLC uses almost at max, 9% when playing it but Xorg uses 99%. | 10:57 |
| bz0b | ok, so after i add the ubuntu server to AD, how do I configure the shares to be authenticated with the AD | 10:57 |
| bz0b | Do i setup the permissions through windows side or linux side? | 10:57 |
| Rootbrian | Afterwards, when I pause it, xorg is still using 99%. | 10:57 |
| === Sven_vB is now known as hasOwnProperty | ||
| ilikethelongnick | txomon thanks, but i can not see this http://forum.ubuntu.org.cn/download/file.php?id=153669&mode=view/20120323096.jpg; so i think there is some thing wrong with grub2, not kernel; am i right? | 10:58 |
| Rootbrian | sounds a bit mad if you think about it. | 10:58 |
| MonkeyDust | bz0b there's also #ubuntu-server | 10:58 |
| mschr | hello folks - how are the unity effects and settings changed? i feel really sad that the stock (just reinstalled) ubuntu 12.04 has so limited settings available | 10:58 |
| txomon | ilikethelongnick: press shift | 10:59 |
| MonkeyDust | mschr use MyUnity or compiz-config | 10:59 |
| Rootbrian | come to think about it, the same thing happens when playing audio files. Why does xorg need to fight for all available cpu resources? | 10:59 |
| txomon | ilikethelongnick: usually, the grub menu is hidden if you just have ubuntu, so to make it appear, you must press shift | 10:59 |
| === hasOwnProperty is now known as Sven_vB | ||
| txomon | all the time | 10:59 |
| tapas | Rootbrian: sounds like a dodgy setup.. | 11:00 |
| Rootbrian | It's a clean install. | 11:00 |
| tapas | Rootbrian: which ATI drivers are you using? | 11:00 |
| tapas | Rootbrian: i heard there are differnt versions with different kinds of problems.. | 11:01 |
| Rootbrian | Xorg is also responsible for that 100% cpu hogging bug that still plagues many ubuntu versions after 9.10. | 11:01 |
| tapas | Rootbrian: maybe try a different one.. | 11:01 |
| tapas | Rootbrian: i never experienced these for almost a decade ;D | 11:01 |
| tapas | sounds to me like the ATI drivers are broken.. | 11:01 |
| Rootbrian | I tried both ati drivers and gone without them, same issue. It's nuts. | 11:01 |
| eamon | Is it true that ubuntu is now ad-supported? | 11:01 |
| smartboyhw | eamon, well you can disable it now in Unity 6.8.0 :D | 11:02 |
| Mechdave_ | Rootbrian, Have you configured xorg with the ati configuration program? | 11:02 |
| MonkeyDust | eamon you mean the amazon controversy? | 11:02 |
| smartboyhw | eamon, well at least the lens | 11:02 |
| smartboyhw | http://www.iloveubuntu.net/unity-68-landed-ubuntu-1210-support-enabledisable-online-search-results-visual-refinements-and | 11:02 |
| Rootbrian | I just use the basic settings. Haven't dug into much of anything. | 11:02 |
| eamon | MonkeyDust: Aye | 11:02 |
| MonkeyDust | eamon better ask in #ubuntu-offtopic | 11:03 |
| ilikethelongnick | txomon i have a win7,too; thanks, now i reboot my pc to try it; if i can see the command line of grub2, maybe i can fix it. | 11:03 |
| Mechdave_ | Rootbrian, I recommend you configure using ATI's software. This may fix your problem | 11:03 |
| Rootbrian | Using fluxbox right now, I do run gnome-panel when I need to access anything from the menu, after I'm done or it gets in the way, I kill it. | 11:03 |
| avey | hi I dont want to interrupt your troubleshooting. just a quick question. If I install 12.10 beta today will i be able to upgrade to stable when it's out? | 11:03 |
| MonkeyDust | eamon and 12.10 is supported in #ubuntu+1 | 11:03 |
| Mechdave_ | avey, yes, but I recommend a clean install | 11:04 |
| smartboyhw | avey, if you keep sudo apt-get upgrade and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade then yes........ | 11:04 |
| avey | allright thanks | 11:04 |
| eamon | Cool, I went to #ubuntu-offtopic since this is not a support question. | 11:04 |
| dn4 | how do I find out how much room is left on my hdd | 11:05 |
| MonkeyDust | dn4 df -h | 11:05 |
| Rootbrian | Each time I upgrade, I backup the firefox, opera and chromium data folders and the rest of the home folder, skipping preferences to avoid screwing stuff up. It fixes anything that messes up the menu. | 11:05 |
| Mechdave_ | dn4, open a terminal and type df -h / | 11:05 |
| dn4 | thank you | 11:05 |
| Mechdave_ | dn4, man df will give you all the options | 11:06 |
| Rootbrian | last upgrade rendered half of the menu with missing programs. Was like hell trying to figure it out. | 11:06 |
| Rootbrian | as soon as openshot is done rendering something (that program is a massive resource hogger, even if idle, it hogs everything at 100%), I'll dig in by tomorrow. Xorg needs to behave better. | 11:07 |
| Rootbrian_ghost | Dammit. Does it have to ping out on me? Lol | 11:09 |
| smartboyhw | Rootbrian_ghost, what? | 11:09 |
| Rootbrian_ghost | I'll dig into the ati configuration by tomorrow. Openshot, a major resource-hogging video editor even when idle (believe it), is done rendering something in 1080p. | 11:10 |
| Rootbrian_ghost | Laters. I guess it'll take a few minutes before nickserv ditches my locked screenname without the "_ghost" attached to it. I hate it when I get disconnected without any notification. | 11:11 |
| woozie | well, damn. | 11:15 |

| RWOverdijk | I'm trying to ssh, and telnet, but both are not working. I'm getting "ssh: connect to host spoonx.nl port 22: Network is unreachable" while it's clearly reachable. | 11:34 |
| tq | hmmm... lotuspsychje, not as long as you are not trying to delete The Zeitgeist Movement ;) | 11:35 |
| jrib | RWOverdijk: why is it "clearly reachable"? | 11:35 |
| lotuspsychje | tq:lol pm me | 11:35 |
| prasanth | guys how to enable all the software in ubuntu studio | 11:36 |
| RWOverdijk | jrib: Because the website is up, and I can ssh in from my phone. | 11:36 |
| RWOverdijk | But ssh is not working for me with any host. Same for telnet | 11:36 |
| smartboyhw | prasanth, er what do you mean? Also best to go to #ubuntustudio for Studio support:D | 11:36 |
| MonkeyDust | prasanth #ubuntustudio | 11:36 |
| MonkeyDust | smartboyhw was faster | 11:36 |
| jrib | RWOverdijk: is your phone on the same network that the machine you are connecting from is on? | 11:36 |
| smartboyhw | MonkeyDust, of course I react fast in Studio questions (since I'm QA Lead of studio duh:P) | 11:37 |
| RWOverdijk | jrib: No. But I'm trying that now. | 11:37 |
| RWOverdijk | jrib: Now it is. So I think it's a network thing. | 11:38 |
| RWOverdijk | I did enable port range forwarding | 11:38 |
| RWOverdijk | On port 22 and 80 | 11:38 |
| jrib | RWOverdijk: is the server on the same local network? How are you trying to connect? (you can pm any private info) | 11:38 |
| prasanth | maonkey DUST i cant understand | 11:39 |
| prasanth | wat ur saying | 11:39 |
| RWOverdijk | jrib: It's not on the same local network. It's a vps somewhere two cities from here. | 11:39 |
| jrib | RWOverdijk: ok | 11:39 |
| kenj | Where can I get a cheap Ubuntu server (VPS) from? | 11:39 |
| RWOverdijk | jrib: Also tested it with mx1 through 4 .hotmailcom (telnet) | 11:39 |
| RWOverdijk | .com* | 11:39 |
| prasanth | monkey DUST i cant understand | 11:39 |
| RWOverdijk | Perhaps it's my port range forwarding. | 11:40 |
| ThinkT510 | prasanth: /join #ubuntustudio | 11:40 |
| RWOverdijk | jrib: Fail... I still had my port filtering for port 22 enabled. | 11:40 |
| jrib | RWOverdijk: ah | 11:41 |
| RWOverdijk | :p | 11:41 |
| akis | any idea how can i remove the samsung's driver's desktop icon and how can i manage main menu to put the samsung menu under a xubuntu menu? | 11:41 |

| Prajyot | did you the image | 12:19 |
| Dr_willis | whatever it was.you need to remove that line 7 and then follow the proper java install guides | 12:19 |

| Dr_willis | Prajyot, also whats the output of 'lsb_release -a' | 12:19 |

| Prajyot | deleted both lines | 12:28 |

| Dr_willis | im thinking the original sources.list was more then 3 lines also... thats why i asked for someone to paste their original. | 12:32 |

Besides after a top command I found there are some processes very busy at the moment, like hud-service, unity-panel-serv and indicator suppl. Could someone help me to f | 12:48 |

| Adie | *changes | 12:51 |
| kisom | Seems to be a utility names "webcam", I'll give it a try | 12:51 |
| bekks | Adie: I bet your computer doesnt support that, besides USB. | 12:51 |
| bekks | Adie: Just use lspci and lsusb | 12:51 |
| Adie | bekks, I am not looking for hotplugging or anything | 12:51 |
| Adie | this is diagnostics. | 12:51 |
| Adie | I am on windows right now, and some electronic devices in my room are causing my computer to beep beep as if there is a hardware change | 12:52 |
| Adie | I am boggling my mind trying to figure out what piece of hardware is flickering or changing | 12:52 |
| Adie | wonder if ubuntu would log that | 12:52 |
| bekks | Adie: A computer basically never beeps on hw changes :) | 12:52 |
| Adie | well, the standard windows "doo doo" | 12:52 |
| Adie | like when you plug in a usb device | 12:52 |
| Adie | but I see nothing showing me WHY it's doing that. | 12:52 |
| bekks | Adie: So you are on a windows machine now? | 12:53 |
| Adie | bekks, yes | 12:53 |

| bekks | Cobra-Tn: To do what...? | 12:54 |
| compdoc | I have had usb devices connect and disconnect by themselves whenever I stand up from the desk or move around. Seems to be static dischanges | 12:54 |
| bekks | Adie: This isnt Windows support. | 12:54 |
| compdoc | discharges | 12:54 |
| Adie | what I THINK is happening is a device is quickly disconnecting and reconnecting | 12:54 |
| Adie | I wonder is ubuntu can log this | 12:54 |
| yeats | Adie: you can 'tail -f /var/log/syslog' or '/var/log/dmesg' | 12:54 |
| ThinkT510 | Adie: if that is the case then it certainly is a windows issue | 12:55 |

| yeats | Adie: well if it's physical hardware, it's *also* not an ubuntu support issue | 12:57 |
| ThinkT510 | Adie: sounds like a windows driver issue to me | 12:57 |
| Adie | I am trying to find a way to log what my computer is doing so I can diagnose it. | 12:58 |
| Adie | windows can't do this, so I am here asking if ubuntu can | 12:58 |
| webfox | bekks, it is the second time it happens here since yesterday. And I'd like to investigate a little what could be possibly causing it to happen. Is there a way to find some system logs or something? | 12:58 |
| yeats | Adie: if it is indeed a hardware issue, Ubuntu logs are located in /var/log | 12:58 |
| Adie | okay | 12:58 |
| bekks | webfox: I have no clue what you are talking about. | 12:58 |
| Hatori | adie, you should learn what caused beep..some related to memeory slot, vga and so on | 12:59 |

| webfox | bekks, oh sorry. | 12:59 |
| bekks | Hatori: Neither memory not CPU will cause beeps after passing the BIOS. | 12:59 |
| Adie | electrical devices in my room are interfering with my computer, and II am trying to figure out which device it is. | 12:59 |
| bekks | Adie: Why dont you finally boot an Ubuntu livecd? | 13:00 |
| webfox | bekks, my machine gets top bar frozen and internet down after a wake up. | 13:00 |
| * Adie sighs | 13:00 | |
| ThinkT510 | Adie: surely only devices plugged into the computer will affect it | 13:00 |
| yeats | Adie: I think your barking up the wrong tree here ;-) | 13:00 |
| Adie | ThinkT510, nope. | 13:00 |
| bekks | webfox: Then at least your network device didnt wake up correctly. Reboot, done. :) | 13:01 |

| Adie | I assume you, my aquarium pump is not plugged to my computer. | 13:01 |
| Adie | *assure | 13:01 |
| Adie | -.- | 13:01 |
| ThinkT510 | Adie: you don't have any giant magnets or stong signaling equipment? | 13:01 |
| Adie | no | 13:01 |
| bekks | Adie: Stop it now please. Boot an Ubuntu, and we might can help you. | 13:01 |
| Adie | I also have no wifi or bluetooth in my computer. | 13:01 |
| Adie | >:/ | 13:02 |
| ThinkT510 | Adie: why on earth do you suspect an aquarium pump? | 13:02 |
| bekks | ThinkT510: Water. Water is teh evil. :P | 13:02 |
| ThinkT510 | bekks: unless you're a gamer and have a water cooling system :) | 13:03 |
| bekks | ThinkT510: :) | 13:03 |
| Dr_willis | ThinkT510, run the cooling lines into the bathroom to get cool water from the toilet. :) Best Mod ive ever seen. | 13:03 |
| Adie | ThinkT510, because when I plug in my aquarium pump my computer detects a hardware change | 13:04 |
| Adie | and when I unplug my aquarium pump, my computer detects a hardware change | 13:04 |
| bekks | Adie: Then WHY dont you finally reboot into an Ubuntu? | 13:04 |
| Adie | my computer makes a sound indicating "hardware has changed" | 13:04 |
| Adie | bekks, I did | 13:04 |
| ThinkT510 | Adie: when in windows? | 13:04 |
| Dr_willis | I would suggest checking the cables. and giving the pc a good cleaning.. and perhaps finding a nice power line filter - if that pump is somehow causing that sort of a issue. | 13:04 |
| bekks | Adie: You are in windows currently. | 13:04 |
| webfox | bekks, do you think it is possible to have a look at a log of the system to check what could possibly be causing this issue? Because it is the second time in two days. | 13:04 |
| Adie | Dr_willis, MY COMPUTER IS RAN THROUGH A POWER CONDITIONER | 13:05 |
| webfox | bekks, I mean, in less then one day now. | 13:05 |
| bekks | webfox: Sure. Just look into /var/log/ | 13:05 |
| Adie | *cap lock | 13:05 |
| Adie | sorry | 13:05 |
| Dr_willis | Adie, the i would find it very odd that a simple aquarium pump would be cuseing such an issue.. unless its josteling cables as it vibrates | 13:05 |
| ThinkT510 | Adie: what is a power conditioner? | 13:05 |
| Adie | Dr_willis, it's come kind of electrical issue, I think | 13:06 |
| Dr_willis | Ive ran PC's on the same outlet as a Dishwasher befor. :) | 13:06 |
| bekks | ThinkT510: It makes power more beautiful :) | 13:06 |
| Adie | probably somehow causing something in my computer to turn off and on quickly | 13:06 |
| Adie | I have no idea why | 13:06 |
| Dr_willis | and ive seen a LOT worse done in the factory. | 13:06 |
| Dr_willis | I have seen vibrations cause cables to have flakey connections. | 13:06 |
| Dr_willis | but this is more of a topic for #hardware i think. | 13:06 |
| ThinkT510 | Dr_willis +1 | 13:07 |
| Adie | ##hardware can't help | 13:07 |
| Adie | agasin, I am not looking for hardware support, just help diagnosing it via hardware logs | 13:07 |
| bekks | Adie: Then USE Ubuntu to have the UBUNTU logs. | 13:07 |
| yeats | Adie: but you're not booting into ubuntu, which has been suggested multiple times | 13:07 |
| bekks | That isnt too hard, isnt it? | 13:07 |
| Adie | I have already done that | 13:07 |
| yeats | Adie: you're in Ubuntu right now? | 13:08 |
| Dr_willis | dmesg log would show connection/disconnect... | 13:08 |
| bekks | Then provide the output of dmesg in a pastebin. | 13:08 |

| yeats | kenj: do you mean 10.04? | 13:22 |

| kenj | Because it has Gnome 2. | 13:23 |
| ThinkT510 | !gnome2 | kenj | 13:23 |
| ubottu | kenj: The GNOME Foundation has ceased support for GNOME 2, and as such it is not in Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot). See !notunity for an alternative desktop experience. | 13:23 |

| ThinkT510 | ezzeloharr: which one did you download? | 13:24 |
| eamon | !notunity | 13:24 |
| ubottu | 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 | 13:24 |
| kenj | i wanmnt to use ubuntu 4 ubuntu 12 svckz | 13:24 |

| jente | what would you guys suggest for a simple (meaning command line and using software, which is almost everywhere available) backup solution with encrypted backups? is rsync with gpg a good approach or something like unison? | 13:49 |
| muelli | rsync backup into a fuse based encsf | 13:50 |
| jente | muelli: thought about that, but i am not sure about encfs availability on, let's say boot-cd's | 13:51 |
| jente | it would certainly be very easy to set up | 13:51 |
| muelli | well jente. Valid point. But I guess with the requirement, you have to strike out many options. And: At least with Ubuntu, you can install things easily with the live cd, if you have an internet connection. | 13:52 |

| edora | <ThinkT510> yes man at startup | 13:53 |
| jente | muelli: the problem would be the "have an internet connection"-thing. there is no guaranteed connection. the scenario i am thinking of is: using some live-cd to boot into linux (native windows pc) and access those files, especially when there is no inet | 13:55 |
| edora | actally i want to remove unnecessary application that executed at startup and then eat up my ram | 13:55 |
| muelli | yep jente. I understand. So you have a limited set of options then, I guess. | 13:56 |
| jente | muelli: I don't always have a live-cd with me, but getting a live-cd is usually no problem | 13:56 |
| muelli | unless you build your live cd or have the relevant .debs with you on a pendrive or so | 13:56 |

| rejven | can someone tell me how to install unetbootin-494-linux i downloaded, i am noob | 14:20 |
| theadmin | rejven: You normally don't use unetbootin in Linux | 14:20 |
| hexmare | thanks MonkeyDust and theadmin | 14:20 |
| steveGODSchild | I have a music cd in the disck | 14:21 |
| rejven | but i want to :p | 14:21 |
| theadmin | rejven: Most ISOs nowadays are hybrid, try something along the lines of sudo dd if=~/Downloads/ubuntu-12.04.1-desktop-i386.iso of=/dev/sdz (replace z with your usb stick's letter) | 14:21 |
| theadmin | rejven: Also unetbootin is in the repos, you can just apt-get install it | 14:22 |
| gain | hi all | 14:22 |
| rejven | yeah but i need older version | 14:22 |
| rejven | :/ | 14:22 |
| MonkeyDust | rejven what's wrong with sudo apt-get install unetbootin ? | 14:22 |
| rejven | i need 494 version | 14:22 |
| theadmin | rejven: And why is that? | 14:22 |
| MonkeyDust | what's 494 version and why do you need it? | 14:22 |
| rejven | nooo | 14:23 |
| steveGODSchild | what did I do wrong | 14:23 |
| rejven | i dont want to tell you that, you will be mad | 14:23 |
| rejven | coz 494 see ntfs partitioned usb drive | 14:23 |
| rejven | and new one doesnt | 14:23 |
| theadmin | rejven: Uhm. It won't boot from NTFS anyway. | 14:23 |
| theadmin | rejven: That wasn't a feature. It was a bug. | 14:23 |
| rejven | yeah you are talking about linux | 14:24 |
| rejven | :) | 14:24 |
| MonkeyDust | rejven start from the beginning, what are you doing and what goes wrong | 14:24 |
| TheHackOps | MonkeyDust, is the offtopic channel #ubuntu-offtopic? | 14:25 |
| theadmin | TheHackOps: Yes. | 14:25 |
| MonkeyDust | TheHackOps yes | 14:25 |
| rejven | its just that i need unetbootin 494, not the new version :) i downloaded it but i dont know how to install it | 14:25 |
| yeats | dojha00: in the IRC client you're using right now, type '/join #xchat' (no quotes) | 14:25 |
| theadmin | rejven: Give me the output of: file /path/to/whatever/you/downloaded | 14:25 |
| MonkeyDust | rejven and nobody else knows what it is | 14:25 |
| steveGODSchild | why will it play a back up cd I made in windows 7 but it wont play a plain music cd | 14:25 |
| Abbas| | guys, if i setup squid transparent proxy. it should be completley invisbile to the sites? for instnace my bravia tv would never know if the proxy is there? | 14:25 |

| dojha00 | It's asking about server.."Not connected. Try /server <host> [<port>]" | 14:26 |
| theadmin | rejven: Okay, run: file /home/rejven/Desktop/unetbootin-linux-494 | 14:26 |
| theadmin | rejven: I'm trying to figure out what the thing is at all | 14:26 |
| jente | muelli: ah, I could go for statically linked encfs (or any other program) and store that with the backup. | 14:27 |
| rejven | i tried to run it from terminal with no luck, when i double click it ( i checked allow exectute in persmision tab) nothing happens | 14:27 |
| MonkeyDust | rejven are you now in linux? | 14:27 |
| rejven | yes | 14:27 |
| rejven | i am | 14:27 |
| muelli | yeah, well jente. If you can access any sort of external data, you're fine and good to go with anything you want, really :) | 14:27 |
| MonkeyDust | rejven and where does this ntfs come in the story? | 14:28 |
| rejven | its that i need bootable win7 usb... thats not the important part :)) | 14:28 |
| MonkeyDust | rejven i'm still not getting what you are trying to do | 14:29 |
| rejven | so i found this tutorial how to burn it to usb, but new unetbooting dont see nfts format | 14:29 |
| ThinkT510 | rejven: you are trying to make a bootable win7 usb in ubuntu? | 14:29 |
| gio60 | hello | 14:29 |
| rejven | well i am trying to install older version of unetbooting to burn win7 on it | 14:29 |
| rejven | yes i do | 14:29 |
| muelli | O_o | 14:29 |
| muelli | ... | 14:29 |
| tomtiger11 | chroot: failed to run command '/bin/bash': No such file or directory | 14:29 |
| theadmin | rejven: Use the winusb tool | 14:30 |
| MonkeyDust | rejven bootable win7 does not even exist, IIRC, otherwise, ask in ##windows | 14:30 |
| Kaori | hey | 14:30 |
| rejven | yeah, thats why i say youll be mad, i just wanted to now how to instal older unetbootin | 14:30 |
| rejven | ;) | 14:30 |
| gio60 | I would like to install downverter in ubuntu 12.10. How to install? | 14:31 |

| sradhakrishna | Hi. I need to setup a PC with 2 network cards. one connects to a private network and another connects to a public network. | 14:31 |
| sradhakrishna | the private network interface has a static IP | 14:32 |
| MonkeyDust | sradhakrishna ubunru? | 14:32 |
| MonkeyDust | sradhakrishna ubuntu? | 14:32 |
| sradhakrishna | and the public network interface has DHCP. | 14:32 |
| sradhakrishna | MonkeyDust: yes, ubuntu. | 14:32 |
| sradhakrishna | the problem i have is that i am able to ping entities on the private network | 14:32 |
| sradhakrishna | but not the public network. | 14:33 |
| sradhakrishna | ip route indicates that a route is setup to the private network | 14:33 |
| sradhakrishna | but not the public network. | 14:33 |
| rexor | sradhakrishna: The one with dhcp shoudl receive ip automatic after you plug in, and for static ip adres u need to edit file: /etc/network/interfaces | 14:33 |
| llutz | sradhakrishna: pastebin "ip r s" please | 14:33 |
| sradhakrishna | the qn - isn't dhcp supposed to take care of setting up the gateway for the public network? | 14:34 |
| lpe | it is | 14:34 |
| Abbas| | guys, can i setup a transparent proxy for https port 443 to port 8080 | 14:34 |
| Abbas| | without detection? | 14:34 |
| muelli | yes | 14:34 |
| Abbas| | muelli , can you please point me somewhere? i setup squid earlir but https doenst work with it | 14:35 |
| sradhakrishna | i setup a gateway using the route add command | 14:36 |
| muelli | Abbas|: well. I would fire up a webbrowser, go to the search engine of my least mistrust and type something like "apache reverse proxy". I'm not going to do it for you though. | 14:36 |
| sradhakrishna | but that doesn't persist across reboots. | 14:36 |
| Abbas| | muelli | 14:36 |
| Abbas| | i've setup tiny proxy | 14:36 |
| Abbas| | and squid yetserday | 14:36 |
| sradhakrishna | how do i persist the gateway settings added using route add command across reboots? | 14:36 |
| Abbas| | searched alot of stites | 14:36 |
| Abbas| | but that didnt work | 14:36 |
| Abbas| | so i need reverse proxy | 14:36 |
| candyass | howdy | 14:36 |
| Abbas| | to keep https proxying stealthy? | 14:36 |
| jente | muelli: you are right. the backup is (usually) on an old zip-drive, but since the zip-drive itself stores data, why not put the executables on it as well. this way, I will, most of the time, not even have to deal with live-* | 14:37 |
| escott | sradhakrishna, probably in /etc/network/interfaces | 14:38 |
| dojha00 | Hey i don't know why i am not able to connect to chat.freenode.net/8001 using XCHAT IRC client?? plz help.. | 14:38 |
| sradhakrishna | can we setup a gateway for a dhcp configured interface in /etc/network/interfaces? | 14:38 |
| ThinkT510 | dojha00: what is chat.freenode.net? you are on irc.freenode.org right now | 14:39 |
| escott | sradhakrishna, why is your dhcp server not configuring the client correctly? | 14:39 |
| dojha00 | ThinkT510: Yeah but right now i m using browser but when i trying to connect through XCHAT then it's showing.."Connecting to chat.freenode.net (50.22.136.18) port 8001" | 14:40 |
| sradhakrishna | escott, can't figure that. :( | 14:40 |
| ThinkT510 | dojha00: ask in #freenode | 14:40 |
| edora | is there any unity launcher editor like menu editor in previous ubuntus? | 14:40 |
| theadmin | edora: I don't think there's any by default | 14:41 |
| cobramd | can anyone help with a wireless issue? It doesn't show a wireless option to select | 14:41 |
| edora | <theadmin> yes but can we do that hell thing ? | 14:41 |
| theadmin | edora: wat? | 14:41 |
| edora | <theadmin>editing launcher | 14:42 |
| ThinkT510 | edora: in unity you drag and drop what you want to edit it | 14:42 |
| theadmin | edora: Well, "Alacarte" used to be the menu editor in pre-gnome3 ages, it may still work, check if it's in the repos | 14:42 |
| edora | and how to change compiz priority | 14:42 |
| theadmin | ThinkT510: You can't really drag'n'drop to, say, change the name of the launcher | 14:43 |
| edora | <theadmin> it is still there but i think will not work out wll here on unity | 14:43 |
| ThinkT510 | theadmin: i meant in the context of adding/removing items from the panel | 14:43 |
| edora | ThinkT510> i mean to add coustom launcher | 14:43 |
| escott | sradhakrishna, i think the standard response is going to be "fix your dhcp server or don't use dhcp" there seems to be little point to using a dhcp server that is not properly configuring the client, it would be easier for you to just make the client fully static | 14:44 |
| edora | ThinkT510> and a custom command such as if we always like to open nautilus as root . | 14:44 |
| ThinkT510 | edora: i would highly advise against opening nautilus as root regularly | 14:45 |
| MonkeyDust | edora open nautilus as root is a very bad idea | 14:45 |
| edora | ThinkT510> yes i know the risk but it was only ex. | 14:45 |
| ardchoille | I was wondering why anyone would do that when we have sudo and a terminal | 14:45 |
| ThinkT510 | ardchoille +1 | 14:45 |
| sradhakrishna | escott, thanks for the advice. One more qn - how can i check if the route to the public network's gateway is set properly? | 14:46 |
| MonkeyDust | edora it would turn your pc into a windows machine, nobody wants that | 14:46 |
| sradhakrishna | escott, where is it recorded on the system? | 14:46 |
| Asphyxium | Can anyone please tell me why modern linux desktops won't let me change my monitor's refresh rate without having to manually mess with xorg.conf? | 14:46 |
| edora | <MonkeyDust>i know that fuck but it was just a example and even we need to do that some occasions | 14:47 |
| bazhang | edora, no cursing here | 14:47 |
| ThinkT510 | !language | edora | 14:47 |
| ubottu | edora: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 14:47 |
| bazhang | edora, you never need to do that | 14:47 |
| edora | ook sorry every body | 14:47 |
| escott | sradhakrishna, the "route" command will show routes. its correct if it works | 14:47 |
| edora | <bazhang> i do that sometime | 14:48 |
| bazhang | Asphyxium, there is no more xorg.conf unless you create one | 14:48 |
| Asphyxium | Can someone please tell me which version of Ubuntu supports changing the refresh rate? I believe it's 9 but I'm not sure... | 14:48 |
| escott | Asphyxium, im sure you can adjust refresh rates with xrandr | 14:48 |
| Asphyxium | Well that explains my trouble with Linux Mint. I couldn't even find xorg's uh... executable equivalent. | 14:48 |
| edora | <Asphyxium> refresh rate of what? | 14:48 |
| Asphyxium | my CRT | 14:48 |
| edora | oh | 14:49 |
| bazhang | Asphyxium, you are on MINT now? | 14:49 |
| Asphyxium | Nope | 14:49 |
| Asphyxium | Win 7 | 14:49 |
| bekks | Asphyxium: Every version of Ubuntu supports it. | 14:49 |
| edora | but it is here on ubuntu too <Asphyxium> | 14:49 |
| MonkeyDust | !tab | edora | 14:49 |
| ubottu | edora: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 14:49 |
| edora | yes agree with <bekks> | 14:49 |
| ardchoille | edora: just a thought, but perhaps you can learn more about the command line apps (cp, mv, tar, etc.) and you won't need to run normal GUI apps as root. I once did a lot of that but I find these days that I don't even need nautilus. the comand line is super fast. | 14:49 |
| Asphyxium | I checked the display settings but there wasn't anything listed for refresh. I assume it auto-detects, but that's insufficient sometimes (currently Win7 thinks 75 Hz in 1024x768 is max but it's really 87) | 14:50 |
| Asphyxium | (Quantel Quetzal beta 2) | 14:50 |
| ThinkT510 | !12.10 | Asphyxium | 14:50 |
| ubottu | Asphyxium: Ubuntu 12.10 (Quantal Quetzal) will be the 17th release of Ubuntu, Discussion and support until final release in #ubuntu+1 | 14:50 |
| hexmare | MonkeyDust: Thanks a lot for the info , I put together just what I needed. here is a paste of what I did -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1263953/ | 14:51 |
| bekks | Asphyxium: You have to do it manually, either using xrandr or modifying your X server config. | 14:51 |
| Asphyxium | :( | 14:51 |
| escott | Asphyxium, most people don't mess with refresh these days (the display is just driven at the maximum refresh allowed by edid), but you can specify you own modeline with xrandr | 14:51 |
| Asphyxium | I support the pioneering spirit, but I don't think it should be mandatory. | 14:51 |
| _XMENDES | guys. i have a 96 nvidia card.. how install his driver on ubuntu 12;04? | 14:51 |
| Asphyxium | If linux is going to be a GUI, it needs to be competitive with the functionality of Windows. | 14:51 |
| MonkeyDust | hexmare looks elegant, glad I could help :) | 14:51 |
| Asphyxium | OK thanks! | 14:51 |
| theadmin | Asphyxium: xrandr -r 87 | 14:52 |
| theadmin | Asphyxium: That should do it | 14:52 |
| Asphyxium | Do you guys remember if Ubuntu 9 supports GUI refresh modification through display settings? | 14:52 |
| Asphyxium | Sweet! | 14:53 |
| tomtiger11 | ltsp always fails to download lots of the packages. command: ltsp-build-client | 14:53 |

| Abbas| | Q4Wine? Winetricks? | 14:59 |
| freddicot | and? | 14:59 |
| cobramd | no and, just the --->eth0 Interface doesn't support scanning. | 14:59 |
| _XMENDES | my terminal dont works on 12:04 after upgrading | 15:00 |
| theadmin | Abbas|: I suggest you just install PlayOnLinux and use that -- it's much better than using plain Wine, primarily because it lets you keep track of the aliens you install and keep them separated from each other. | 15:00 |
| Abbas| | hmm | 15:00 |
| freddicot | there is no device wifi | 15:00 |
| theadmin | Abbas|: Other than that, Wine can be installed with this command: sudo apt-get install wine | 15:00 |
| Abbas| | theadmin is install ccproxy (a windows proxy app) a good idea? | 15:01 |
| freddicot | try lsusb command | 15:01 |

| akis | hi all. i installed my samsung's printer's driver and it works fine. samsung driver made a new category in my xubuntu 12.04 main menu which is not accessible using 'alacarte'. any idea to manage this new category and the items under this category so i would be able to move them to another category? | 15:01 |
| Abbas| | and i failed with ti once before | 15:01 |
| theadmin | Abbas|: Oh, no, windows proxies aren't gonna work in Linux, doh. | 15:01 |
| Abbas| | :( | 15:01 |
| cobramd | it found the adapter when I set the system up. just doens't seem like it knows that the wifi adapter is actually for wifi | 15:02 |
| escott | akis, installed samsung driver as root or unpriv user? running alacarte as root or unpriv user? | 15:02 |
| tomtiger11 | ltsp won't build a client image, it just throws cant download errors | 15:04 |
| akis | installed printer using 'sudo sh ./install.sh'. i am running GUI alacarte as 'user' and the new category is not shown in 'main menu editor' | 15:04 |
| escott | akis, you want to find where samsung put the .desktop file. normally it would be in /usr/share/applications | 15:06 |
| theadmin | escott: If it's there the Unity menu thing would autodetect it | 15:07 |
| RiXtEr | what file would contain the last session used by a user? | 15:08 |
| akis | yep. that's true. i found them already. and i could remove them. but i don't. i just want to move the 3 new itmes to another category, like 'system' for example. and after i move them under 'systme' i would like to remove the new catergory made by samsung. | 15:08 |
| Geroz | hi. I have Debian. Exist way how set CPU speed to max? (100% all the time) ? In Ubuntu I know how do it but in Debian don't know. | 15:08 |

| escott | scoop, no | 15:33 |
| MonkeyDust | scoop there's also #bash | 15:33 |
| scoop | I tried "export" but that doesn't work. And doing bash <scriptname> doesn't help | 15:33 |
| jrib | scoop: what are you trying to accomplish? | 15:33 |
| MonkeyDust | scoop try sh scriptname | 15:34 |
| geirha | scoop: See http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/060 | 15:34 |
| scoop | When I switch into a directory I'd like to set abbreviation for the directory name | 15:34 |
| MonkeyDust | scoop type /join #bash | 15:35 |
| codefyre | scoop: source scriptname | 15:35 |
| codefyre | this will make the variable available to the current shell | 15:35 |
| escott | scoop, export is related to subprocesses http://ss64.com/bash/export.html | 15:35 |
| scoop | I discovered $PWD is global and works for the current directory. I'll try #bash too. | 15:36 |

| confuzled | please use my name in your response i am watching my son | 15:41 |
| confuzled | thank you | 15:41 |
| scoop | Thanks guys! This is great. | 15:41 |
| escott | confuzled, do you have a windows entry? what happens when you select it | 15:42 |
| dhm9492 | Does anyone know how to solve the Bloq Mayus key delay problem? | 15:42 |
| bazhang | dhm9492, relation to ubuntu support? | 15:43 |
| confuzled | escott: the entry is there. i get black screen | 15:43 |
| dhm9492 | relation? | 15:44 |
| dhm9492 | what do you mean? | 15:44 |
| jilt007 | seq num prints number in ascending order. Is there any command to print it in desecnding oorder | 15:44 |
| bazhang | dhm9492, this is ubuntu support | 15:44 |
| dhm9492 | I know | 15:44 |
| bazhang | so what is this key delay problem you mention | 15:44 |
| MonkeyDust | dhm9492 what is that bloq problme exactly? | 15:45 |
| jilt007 | Any Idea? | 15:45 |
| scoop | join #bash | 15:45 |
| dhm9492 | WHen I press the bloq mayus key and capitals are locked then I unlock them again because I don't want to use capitals anymore but it takes a bit of a delay and I write too fast so it usually writes two capitals as it appears at the beginning of this message | 15:46 |
| bazhang | bloq mayus dhm9492 what is that | 15:46 |
| escott | confuzled, do you happen to know if your system is a UEFI system? prior to installing ubuntu did you have any prior linux on there or did the installer resize the windows partition? | 15:46 |
| MonkeyDust | it's caps lock | 15:46 |
| dhm9492 | sorry | 15:46 |
| dhm9492 | my keyboard is spanish | 15:46 |
| escott | jilt007, seq -r num? | 15:46 |
| dhm9492 | caps lock, right | 15:46 |
| escott | jilt007, seq N -1 1 | 15:47 |
| ThinkT510 | dhm9492: use shift | 15:47 |
| confuzled | escott: i do not believe it is uefi mother board is almost 3 years old | 15:47 |
| dhm9492 | I'm very used to using the caps lock | 15:47 |
| dhm9492 | and using the shift instead would be hard | 15:48 |
| ThinkT510 | dhm9492: you need to get out of the habit | 15:48 |
| dhm9492 | to change the keyboard habit | 15:48 |
| dhm9492 | yeah but isn't there any other solution? | 15:48 |
| dhm9492 | I've searched everywhere and it looks like it's a general problem | 15:48 |
| jilt007 | escott: Not working | 15:48 |
| dhm9492 | and no one knows how to solve it | 15:48 |
| escott | jilt007, -r was just a guess N -1 1 will do what you want | 15:49 |
| jilt007 | escott:thanks N worked | 15:49 |
| IdleOne | dhm9492: The solution is to use the proper key, the shift key. | 15:49 |
| dhm9492 | IdleOne: Yeah, but is it the only solution? | 15:49 |
| IdleOne | yes, the only way to type properly is properly | 15:50 |
| jilt007 | escott: What does -1 1 means in it? | 15:50 |
| dhm9492 | Okey, thank you :) | 15:50 |
| IdleOne | dhm9492: also, this is not a Ubuntu issue so it is off topic for this channel, you might try asking ##hardware. | 15:50 |

| ThinkT510 | sliddjur: this is ubuntu support | 15:51 |
| sliddjur | oh wrong channel ^^ | 15:51 |
| confuzled | escott: any clue what the issue may be | 15:51 |
| bazhang | sliddjur, ask in a raspian support channel | 15:51 |
| bazhang | +b | 15:51 |
| codefyre | jilt007: seq 10 -1 1, means seq startno increment endingnumber | 15:52 |
| sliddjur | Noticed. but anyways, is it possible in ubuntu? | 15:52 |
| escott | confuzled, you never answered my second question, but if the ntfs was resized the winldr might not be where it needs to be. in which case boot a windows rescue cd (you can get images only) and let it fix the windows bootloader, then boot the linux livecd and reinstall grub | 15:52 |
| jilt007 | codefyre: Thanks | 15:52 |
| confuzled | ok i have a windows insatll cd will that work | 15:52 |
| jilt007 | escott: Thanks | 15:53 |
| escott | !man | jilt007 | 15:53 |
| ubottu | jilt007: The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | Manpages online: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/ | 15:53 |
| confuzled | escott: would windows install cd work | 15:53 |
| jilt007 | escott: Man doesnot have N option in seq, i saw | 15:54 |
| escott | jilt007, N is not the option. I'm saying seq PUT_A_NUMBER_HERE -1 1 | 15:54 |
| confuzled | escott: i am not sure if linux resized im sorry | 15:54 |
| [x] | !slax | 15:54 |
| escott | confuzled, if windows was the only thing on the disk initially then it would have been resized | 15:54 |
| jilt007 | escott: Yes , it worked i told you already :) | 15:55 |
| confuzled | escott: ok yes then it got resized. can I use install disc. than you for your help btw | 15:55 |
| escott | confuzled, and yes the windows install cd should work... although just following the gui is going to lead you down a path of reinstalling | 15:55 |
| L3top | Does anyone know a way to reduce the attempts/timeout for DHCP receive? | 15:55 |
| confuzled | escott: what should i do differently then | 15:55 |
| escott | confuzled, i've never had much use for windows CDs other than on my coffee table so i couldnt tell you | 15:56 |
| escott | confuzled, its pretty rare to have a resize lead to a non-bootable windows, but its a possibility and worth checking. Another possibility is that the bios is old and buggy and that windows got put after the primary linux partition and is outside of the bootable range of the bios. Again not likely as the installer usually resizes such that windows is at the front of the disk | 15:58 |
| escott | confuzled, main thing is while using the windows cd make sure it isn't reinstalling, but instead "fixing" there is/was? a command fixmbr which you could run from the windows command line to reinstall the windows bootloader | 15:59 |
| codefyre | running fixmbr would render ubuntu unbootable | 16:00 |
| codefyre | if windows is still there on some drive , than reinstalling grub should detect it | 16:00 |
| confuzled | escott: it goes straight to install | 16:05 |
| escott | confuzled, if you hit one of the 100+ keys on the keyboard at just the right millisecond you might get some kind of menu | 16:06 |

| PITBEAST | I'm trying to fix a co-workers windows pc using a ubuntu live cd. I need a little help with something | 16:09 |
| confuzled | escott: i did...i need a retail disc not oem i am downloading itnow | 16:09 |
| PITBEAST | My co-worker wants me to retrieve his IE favorites, which I can't access because his HDD is fried. I was wondering if anyone knows a way to retrieve the favorites using file manager? | 16:10 |
| aguadito | retrive them from a fried hdd? | 16:11 |
| ardchoille | PITBEAST: if the HDD is fried nothing is going to retrieve anything from it | 16:11 |
| nydel | is there an easy way to upgrade a wubi installation to 12.10? | 16:11 |
| aguadito | you could try performing an ancient mayan ritual on it to revive its data | 16:11 |
| PITBEAST | @ardchoille I'm not sure if it's actually fried. I'm actually able to access the files from the HDD. I just can't seem to figure out if there is anywhere that his IE favorites would be saved | 16:11 |
| codefyre | PITBEAST: which ie version ? | 16:12 |
| PITBEAST | not sure. I know he is using windows vista. When i try to boot the pc, it goes into startup repair and just freezes. I ran badblocks through the terminal from the live CD and it had 461 bad blocks. | 16:13 |
| ThinkT510 | PITBEAST: wow, that harddrive is dead | 16:14 |
| l0p3n | I tried every bios setting but my old pc wont start the ubuntu-7.10-server cd on boot. Is it possible to install ubuntu server from the desktop? | 16:14 |
| ThinkT510 | l0p3n: 7.10 is no longer supported | 16:14 |
| PITBEAST | ThinkT510 exactly. But somehow, I'm able to access all of his files thru the home folder | 16:14 |
| ardchoille | PITBEAST: Sorry, I haven't used a windows os in ten years.. I was just speaking on the hardware end of things | 16:14 |

| ThinkT510 | stuwat: you could just reformat if you want to keep the same partition sizes | 16:17 |
| codefyre | stuwat: do this during installing ubuntu, not from inside of windows | 16:17 |
| PITBEAST | codefyre: is there a way to navigate to that using the home folder? Under devices I have "U3 System" (the flash drive I'm using for a live cd) "ACER" which seems to be his hard drive and "DATA" | 16:17 |
| L3top | PITBEAST: there are utilities to section off and not use the bad blocks... then you could do recovery on the drive... but... stop using it. Stop accessing it. Typically what this is is the medium itself is becomming adhered from the drive, and the more you spin it the worse it gets. Sector it off and recover it... and be done with it. | 16:17 |

| stuwat | Thanks ThinkT510. I want to do some partition resizing before re-installing. My concern was that Grub would get messed up. | 16:18 |
| codefyre | PITBEAST: if the harddrive is still working , you can mount the first partition using mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mnt | 16:18 |
| codefyre | than browse /mnt , looking for files | 16:18 |
| ThinkT510 | stuwat: grub will be overqritten | 16:18 |
| ThinkT510 | overwritten | 16:19 |
| L3top | I wouldn't browse anything. I would fix the bad blocks and clone it off onto something else | 16:19 |
| PITBEAST | I just tried to access /media/DATA and it gave the following error: | 16:19 |

| gnubie | l0p3n> if drive is not working this wont help, sorry | 16:24 |
| escott | confuzled, after the repair you should have a bootable windows but not a bootable linux | 16:24 |
| codefyre | stuwat: you currently have only windows installed or windows + ubuntu dual boot ? | 16:24 |
| confuzled | escott: ...wtf | 16:24 |
| confuzled | lol | 16:24 |
| escott | !grub | confuzled follow the grub reinstall to get linux working again | 16:24 |
| ubottu | confuzled follow the grub reinstall to get linux working again: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 - See !grub1 for releases before Karmic (9.10) | 16:24 |
| ThinkT510 | PITBEAST: then you need to acquaint him with the art of backing stuff up | 16:25 |
| DIL | lol | 16:25 |
| ardchoille | And, while you're at it, acquaint him with Ubuntu | 16:25 |
| escott | confuzled, and hopefully at that point both work. if after that you still have a non-working windows we have to look at other possibilities and check the disk layout | 16:25 |
| stuwat | codefyre: I'll add that unallocated space to the ubuntu partition. | 16:25 |
| stuwat | codefyre: I have both. | 16:25 |

| l0p3n | gnubie: Ok i see why it wasn't working. The floppy was not connected :P But i'll give your method a try thanks | 16:25 |
| codefyre | stuwat, so you have a dual boot setup, and you want to install a new version of ubuntu ? | 16:26 |
| PITBEAST | ThinkT510: I plan to. I also plan to set him up with some real anti-virus software. In the meantime, I want to try to get his laptop to boot again. But it seems like he needs a new HDD and he needs to be okay with losing his data. It's his own fault anyway. | 16:26 |
| DIL | if the HDD is spinning you may be able tostill create a dd image | 16:26 |
| confuzled | balling they both boot | 16:26 |
| codefyre | stuwat: replacing the older one | 16:26 |
| ThinkT510 | PITBEAST: indeed | 16:26 |
| confuzled | thank you so much | 16:26 |
| ardchoille | PITBEAST: tell him this is a perfect example of the need for a routine backup scheme | 16:27 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Guest42242 | ||
| L3top | Again I recommend sectoring off the bad blocks... dd will try and go over them again and agian probably causing more damage. They need to disappear for best results. If it is spinning, recovery can happen... but... its time consuming so the data had better be worth it... and you would have to have something to put the data on. | 16:28 |
| PITBEAST | ardchoille: exactly. he's got a "oneclick backup drive" that he got off QVC. Hasn't used it in 6 months | 16:28 |
| gnubie | l0p3n> just create the smart boot floppy and boot into it and it will give yoou the option to boot from the cd | 16:28 |
| L3top | That sounds like something you can put an image on PITBEAST. | 16:28 |
| L3top | :) | 16:28 |
| ardchoille | PITBEAST: metioning the wasted money on an unused drive usually prompts the user to begin using it | 16:29 |
| PITBEAST | l3top: it doesn't work like an external HD, it's something you have to load software on the computer for, then you click and it decides what to back up | 16:29 |
| DIL | or the $ to send it to a data recover shop[ | 16:29 |
| bekks | Data not worth backing up is data not worth keeping. | 16:29 |
| L3top | PITBEAST: It's a drive. You can use it. | 16:29 |
| EricMar11223 | Hi all | 16:30 |
| ardchoille | L3top: +1 | 16:30 |
| L3top | PITBEAST: You don't have to use it the way it is intended. It's a drive. Use it how you want. | 16:30 |
| EricMar11223 | Any ubuntu experts around that would be willing to talk a relative newbe through the switch over from Mac | 16:30 |
| bekks | EricMar11223: Do you have a specific Ubuntu problem? :) | 16:31 |
| PITBEAST | l3top: i googled it and apparently there's no way to use it as a regular drive | 16:31 |
| stuwat | codefyre: I have an SSD and want to maximise space. There's >10Gb of unallocated space that I would like to consolidate with the Ubuntu partition. I'm guessing the best way is to delete the existing Ubuntu partition and move the other unallocated space into it, before re-installing Ubuntu. | 16:31 |

| EricMar11223 | I am not installing on the Mac, I am converting over | 16:31 |
| codefyre | stuwat: yes you can do that , but a safer option would be to do all this partitioning while installing your new version of ubuntu | 16:32 |
| PITBEAST | bekks: it was "oneclick" something or other | 16:32 |
| bekks | EricMar11223: And do you have a specific Ubuntu problem? :) | 16:32 |
| PITBEAST | bekks: he got it from qvc or something | 16:32 |
| bekks | PITBEAST: "something or other" is a bit... unclear. Do you have an _exact_ name? | 16:32 |
| tomtiger11 | networking now wont start | 16:32 |
| PITBEAST | bekks: wish i did. i looked it up when he handed me the drive. don't have the name now. let me see if i can find it | 16:33 |
| escott | stuwat, is the unallocated space not adjacent to the ubuntu partition | 16:33 |
| bekks | PITBEAST: It is written somewhere on that device... | 16:33 |
| PITBEAST | bekks: i don't have the drive anymore. | 16:33 |
| L3top | PITBEAST: at the end of the day... inside the device (though I am skeptical it cannot be gotten around) there is a hard drive, and removing that drive, will give you the ability to do what you want to it. It sounds like you are just being obstinant. | 16:33 |
| codefyre | PITBEAST: if its a harddrive , you can use it | 16:33 |
| tomtiger11 | Anyone? | 16:34 |
| EricMar11223 | No specific problem, just wondering if there are any FAQ's or anything that would help me to better understand the OS and how to navigate it. Also, some suggestions on programs that are the best in their class. | 16:34 |
| PITBEAST | It was called a "ClickFree Automatic Backup" | 16:34 |
| TreadStone__71 | Can someone tell me what the name of the program is that shows you your system stats etc in text on the screen ? | 16:34 |
| stuwat | codefyre: Windows has a Rapid Start partition sandwiched between my Ubuntu partition and the unallocated space. I therefore need to move it, which isn't possible during install (I think). | 16:34 |

| gain | bekks: can't find my wifi card in lspci, and the fn key used for enable it seems not work | 16:40 |
| bekks | chunkyhead: Just connect to your wifi using your password. | 16:40 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11: contents of /etc/networking/interfaces on pastebin please | 16:41 |
| bekks | gain: Then try lsusb instead of lspci | 16:41 |

| mschr | yo guys, know how to get back the ALT+Mouse1+Mouse2 resize shortie back up? | 16:41 |
| bekks | chunkyhead: Then reset your wifi accesspoint and set a new password. | 16:41 |
| gain | and can't boot from usb too... works the first time and after that, never works... installed it via pxe | 16:41 |
| bekks | ardchoille: ah ok. Thats what I assumed. | 16:41 |
| chunkyhead | bekks, i want to learn how to hack, for education purpose, that's why i wanna do that. | 16:42 |

| tomtiger11 | bekks: right. | 16:53 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11: try this config -> http://pastie.org/4922805 | 16:53 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11: make a backup of your current file , though its totally messed up | 16:53 |
| codefyre | opps , need some correction , wait | 16:54 |
| stuwat | codefyre: It does look that way and Ubuntu sees it the same way - there's actually two W7 entries in the boot screen - but this is a new machine with W7 pre-installed - once. | 16:54 |
| tomtiger11 | codefyre: That won't work, I cant have a 192.168 ip. | 16:54 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11 , taht i your local network address | 16:55 |
| chunkyhead | bekks, what's wrong in hacking. i | 16:55 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11: do u have a static ip address ? | 16:55 |
| ardchoille | chunkyhead: Which version of ubuntu are you using? | 16:55 |

| chunkyhead | ardchoille, 12.04 | 16:55 |
| tomtiger11 | codefyre: I'd have to ask the school. | 16:55 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11: do you know the address of your gateway ? | 16:56 |
| ardchoille | chunkyhead: well, the way you phrased your initial question it doesn't appear to be a support issue.. therefore it doesn't apply here | 16:56 |
| tomtiger11 | no. it would probaly be the default though | 16:56 |
| codefyre | stuwat: you have 4 partions, /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 for windows and the rest 2 for ubuntu ? | 16:56 |
| bekks | chunkyhead: It is not supported in here. | 16:56 |
| chunkyhead | ardchoille, any suggestions which channel would help me with this? bekks | 16:57 |
| ardchoille | chunkyhead: regardless, getting support to learn how to use aircrack to hack into computers will likely not lead to any support in this channel. | 16:57 |
| bekks | chunkyhead: No. And actually I do not care about that. :) | 16:57 |
| ardchoille | chunkyhead: sorry, I won't help with that | 16:57 |
| wilee-nilee | stuwat, You have a boot partition and the main OS most likely, grub will show at times you can confirm this with installing gparted a partitioner and looking at the HD | 16:57 |
| ardchoille | bekks: may I pm you? | 16:58 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11: need to know the adress of your gateway and internal network before i can cook up a interface file | 16:58 |
| bekks | ardchoille: Sure. | 16:58 |
| tomtiger11 | codefyre: I'm sure its what ever would be a default | 16:58 |
| john | Excuse me for saying so, but you can't provide adequate help with 1500 users. | 16:58 |
| chunkyhead | ardchoille, i dont want to hack into a computer, all i want to do is gain access to my wifi w/o giving a passkey | 16:59 |

| ardchoille | chunkyhead: please take it elsewhere, I'm not going to help you with that. | 16:59 |

| drupin | I have drupin@drupin$ on terminal i want to make drupin@ubuntu$ is it possible to change system name | 17:00 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11: you need to be connected to the network before you configure your system | 17:01 |
| tomtiger11 | codefyre: Ive g2g, cya in a few | 17:01 |
| bekks | drupin: "sudo hostname ubuntu" | 17:01 |
| codefyre | ok | 17:01 |
| drupin | ok thankee bekks | 17:01 |
| theadmin | bekks: That will only last until a reboot | 17:01 |
| stuwat | codefyre and wilee_nilee: It looks like main partition and OS, which is sda1 and sda2 respectively. There is a third partition which Windows uses for Rapid Start. The rest will be for Ubuntu. | 17:01 |
| theadmin | drupin: Modify /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts respectively. | 17:01 |
| drupin | theadmin: as told by bekks will do? sudo hostname ubuntu ? | 17:02 |
| drupin | or i need modify both files | 17:02 |
| theadmin | drupin: It will work, but it will go back to "drupin" as soon as you reboot | 17:02 |
| bekks | drupin: That will last till next reboot. | 17:02 |
| escott | stuwat, i thought rapid start was for usb-thumbdrives? what is the point of rapidstart on the same medium? sure it isnt a rescue partition | 17:03 |
| codefyre | stuwat: and where is the free space ? after ubuntu , or after sda2 ? | 17:03 |
| drupin | no i want to change permanent bekks | 17:03 |
| bekks | drupin: Then change both named files. | 17:03 |
| drupin | ok bekks | 17:03 |
| john | escott, Rapidstart works better for SSD drives. | 17:03 |
| john | escott, Why don't you get one | 17:04 |
| theadmin | drupin: if you need to have it last, do this: for i in hostname hosts ; do sudo sed -i 's/drupin/ubuntu/g' /etc/$i ; done | 17:04 |
| stuwat | escott: No it's not for rescue. I already deleted that. | 17:04 |
| codefyre | this is getting so confusing , stuwat can u post the output from 'lsblk' to pastebin | 17:04 |
| stuwat | codefyre: After sda2, I have Ubuntu, then the Rapid Start partition, then the unallocated space. | 17:05 |
| drupin | theadmin: this will change the name in two files .... sudo sed -i 's/drupin/ubuntu/g' /etc/$i ; done | 17:05 |
| codefyre | stuwat and u want to merge ubuntu+rapidstart +unallocated space , on which u want to install the new ubuntu ? | 17:05 |
| theadmin | drupin: Right | 17:05 |
| john | Good idea. The boot partion should never be bigger that 60 Gb. | 17:05 |
| drupin | ok theadmin | 17:05 |
| theadmin | drupin: wait no | 17:06 |
| drupin | then | 17:06 |
| codefyre | druping , just do , sudo echo 'new_name' > /etc/hostname | 17:06 |
| theadmin | drupin: for i in hostname hosts ; do sudo sed -i 's/drupin/ubuntu/g' /etc/$i ; done | 17:06 |
| theadmin | codefyre: Since when does that work? Redirection doesn't work with sudo. | 17:06 |
| john | ever heard of find? | 17:07 |
| theadmin | drupin: Don't listen to codefyre, fail command | 17:07 |
| codefyre | yea sorry for that | 17:07 |
| drupin | ok theadmin | 17:07 |
| stuwat | codefyre: No, I was just going to move Rapid Start partition so I can consolidate the unallocated space with my Ubuntu partition. | 17:07 |
| theadmin | drupin: The above command (starting with for) is the exact command that will work, so just do that and reboot | 17:07 |
| codefyre | stuwat: you can't move partitions like this | 17:07 |
| theadmin | drupin: (rebooting is necessary, modifying /etc/hosts breaks sudo until you reboot) | 17:08 |
| overclucker | find would work much better here, also wrap it in sudo sh -c '' | 17:08 |
| drupin | ok i need to reot any how i am windoze... | 17:08 |
| === nibbler__ is now known as nibbier | ||
| drupin | reboot* | 17:08 |
| overclucker | also, simulate the command before running it | 17:08 |
| theadmin | overclucker: Who are you talking to anyway? lol | 17:08 |
| overclucker | theadmin: lol, sorry wasn't sure who it was for | 17:09 |
| theadmin | !who | overclucker | 17:09 |
| ubottu | overclucker: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 17:09 |
| stuwat | codefyre: I'm pretty sure I can with Gparted. I'll delete the existing Ubuntu partition and move the Rapid Start partition to the left, leaving all the unallocated space to the right. That will be my new Ubuntu partition. | 17:09 |
| john | stuwat, That is correct | 17:10 |
| stuwat | codefyre: Yes, it is confusing. All that aside though, my major concern is whether the correct procedure to re-install Ubuntu - without messing up my dual boot system - is simply to delete the partition and then install as normal (after moving partitions and consolidating space). | 17:10 |
| tomtiger11 | codefyre: Back | 17:11 |
| john | stuwat, I have done it, but it is not easy. Which partion? | 17:11 |
| tomtiger11 | Coded11: Its not going to really have an internet connection, Yet. | 17:11 |
| tomtiger11 | whoops | 17:11 |
| tomtiger11 | codefyre: ^^ | 17:11 |

| dksaarth | Hi guys - anybody know the name of the program to start the installer program ? I used remastersys on a gui less system | 17:11 |

| === antimon_ is now known as antimon | ||
| dksaarth | thanks trism - going to try see if i can start it running on a remote x server | 17:12 |
| john | stuwat, are you assuming no advanced partioning? | 17:12 |
| stuwat | john: I'll just remove the entire Ubuntu partition and do a regular install - nothing advanced. | 17:13 |
| tomtiger11 | codefyre: How do i setup dhcp for eth0? | 17:13 |
| john | stuwat, if it is all one partion, it will work | 17:14 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11: you need to change inet static to inet dynamic and remove all the static settings | 17:15 |
| codefyre | from your interfaces file | 17:15 |
| tomtiger11 | codefyre: I mean, so eth0 acts as a dhcp server | 17:16 |
| species_4981 | I'm having mount problems - I get "mountall: disconnected from plymouth" and "mountall: mount terminated with system 32" ...this is LM13, mate ... what's Plymouth and how should I start solving the problem please? | 17:16 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11: no , you want to make your system act like a dhcp server , or configure your network dynamically ? | 17:16 |
| tomtiger11 | system as dhcp server, codefyre | 17:17 |
| john | species_4981, plymoth is the name of you system | 17:17 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11: for what , you want to lease out ip address to other systems ? | 17:17 |
| john | species_4981, why are you on this system if you don't know it's name | 17:17 |
| species_4981 | john - no, it's some sort of boot-time application but I don't know what it does ...just reading about it now on a wiki | 17:17 |
| stuwat | john: I think the partitioning will work okay. I just don't want to screw up the dual boot facility. I'm afraid GRUB might mess up or something like that. | 17:17 |
| species_4981 | john http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Plymouth | 17:18 |
| tomtiger11 | yes, so i can use it as a ltsp server | 17:18 |
| tomtiger11 | @ codefyre | 17:19 |
| john | stuwat, It will.. It get's tricky if if grub intsall windows. It is better to let the windows loader call Grub. | 17:19 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11: sudo apt-get install dhcp3-server | 17:20 |
| === dpac|away is now known as dpac | ||

| tomtiger11 | what do i have for /etc/network/interfaces | 17:20 |
| species_4981 | escott: Oh! OK, thanks ... there seems to be a race hazard with the partitions I am trying to mount - looks like Plymouth is not related. Thanks again. | 17:21 |
| john | stuwat, It helps toreaize ext? is invisible to windows | 17:21 |
| stuwat | john: So the question remains this: what is the appropriate method for removing Ubuntu from a dual boot system? | 17:21 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11: your network would need to be configured statically | 17:21 |
| codefyre | like 192.168.0.0 internal network | 17:22 |
| tomtiger11 | codefyre: Even if it has no internet connection? | 17:22 |
| john | stuwat, erase the contents of the partions. The use the windows loader to reclaim the disk space. | 17:22 |
| codefyre | codefyre: yea thats fine | 17:22 |
| codefyre | oops, tomtiger11 | 17:22 |
| john | stuwat, opps, The LINUX partions | 17:23 |
| tomtiger11 | codefyre: Could you write me out a interfaces file using 152. instead of 192.? | 17:23 |
| codefyre | you can't use 152.? internal network | 17:23 |
| tomtiger11 | ? | 17:24 |
| codefyre | tomtiger11: read -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network | 17:24 |
| tomtiger11 | codefyre: Using 10. then? | 17:25 |
| codefyre | yea 10/8 would work | 17:25 |

| wilee-nilee | ramprasadgk, Have you run sudo update-grub in the ubuntu install. | 17:32 |
| escott | ramprasadgk, "sudo os-prober" will list the other windows os'es it finds. if it lists windows there but not in the boot menu run "sudo update-grub" | 17:32 |

| Froward | trism: very cool, but I wish that information were more accessible..maybe by clicking "help" in the mouse dialog? or something with the touchpad factoid on the bot? | 17:35 |
| trism | Froward: someone should definitely update the documentation about it (you could always add the info to the wiki page if you want) | 17:36 |

| ardchoille | Froward: I can and will. But, keep in mind that it is ultimately up to the mods to add these, I, as a user, can only "suggest" | 17:38 |

| ARcaneWater | Hello, i am trying to install linux to make dual boot, but when i just boot it it says cannot read a file and after thath it shows me menu and i click install ubuntu...And then it shows me screen with some kind of erros like: Kernel panic - not syncing : VFS: Unable to mount root fson unknown block (0,0) | 17:39 |
| ARcaneWater | What should i do? | 17:39 |
| ARcaneWater | I am trying thath on Lenovo G780 | 17:39 |
| ardchoille | Froward: I have submitted your last suggestion. Heopfeully these will be added. | 17:40 |
| escott | ARcaneWater, the kernel cannot find the root filesystem. use the bootinfo script and send us the output of it | 17:41 |
| wilee-nilee | ARcaneWater, Have you checked the md5sum of the ISO you used to burn a cd or load a usb? | 17:41 |
| ARcaneWater | wilee-nilee i downloaded it from ubuntu.si offical site for ubuntu is slovenia | 17:42 |
| ARcaneWater | in slovenia* | 17:42 |
| escott | ARcaneWater, is this error from the install cd? in that case ignore my previous and check the md5sum's | 17:43 |
| ardchoille | ARcaneWater: what wilee-nilee was asking was if you checked the ISO file md5sum to make sure the download wasn't corrupted | 17:43 |
| ARcaneWater | escott yes it is from install cd. | 17:43 |
| wilee-nilee | ARcaneWater, Do you have a open source install to run the bootscript as escott suggested, a download as well does not insure a ISO that is not corrupted or burned to fast there are some outliers we have to cover. | 17:43 |
| ARcaneWater | Any help on how should i check my iso file md5sum? | 17:44 |
| wilee-nilee | !md5sum | ARcaneWater | 17:44 |
| ubottu | ARcaneWater: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 17:44 |
| mr_homer | hi, I tried to move my home directory to a different partition | 17:47 |

| ubottu | mr_homer: Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 17:47 |
| mr_homer | but unity is not coming up | 17:48 |
| novato_br | hi, which screenlet or gadget has been used on this picture? ==> http://www.unixmen.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/samba3.png | 17:48 |
| mr_homer | yes I tried the steps on the wiki, its the same news | 17:48 |
| yekoms | that is conky novato_br | 17:48 |
| mr_homer | i went through the lightdm logs, but it doesn't show why unity just dies | 17:48 |
| yekoms | with a custom .conkyrc | 17:48 |
| novato_br | okay | 17:48 |
| yekoms | welcome. btw nice applet screenshot, its neat and pretty ;P | 17:49 |
| novato_br | I saw the conky interface is not seem even close | 17:49 |
| ardchoille | ThinkT510: that has to be one of the most useful factoids I've seen in a while | 17:49 |
| novato_br | yeah yekoms | 17:49 |
| novato_br | I think users should give some value to this | 17:49 |
| yekoms | i think his temp is wrong, 5C is a little cold for normal CPU unless hes running a liquid system or liquid nitro system | 17:49 |
| ARcaneWater | Ok i checked md5sums and they are diffrent :( | 17:50 |
| yekoms | novato_br, they do, prob in #conkey | 17:50 |
| ardchoille | ARcaneWater: time to redownload | 17:50 |
| yekoms | #conky * | 17:50 |
| ARcaneWater | So i should download from ubuntu.com? | 17:50 |
| ARcaneWater | Instead of ubuntu.si | 17:50 |
| yekoms | ARcaneWater, what did you use to download the file? | 17:50 |
| yekoms | browser? torrent? wget? | 17:50 |
| ARcaneWater | yekoms ubuntu.si Slovenian site for ubuntu | 17:50 |
| ardchoille | ARcaneWater: I don't think it matters from where, you just need to check the md5sum when download completes | 17:50 |
| novato_br | yekoms: thanks | 17:51 |
| ardchoille | ARcaneWater: which app did you use to download it | 17:51 |
| yekoms | or download from a closer source, some servers corrupt the data no matter how many times you dl it. i cant download from .de without data corruption | 17:51 |
| ARcaneWater | Normal browser download ardchoille | 17:51 |
| mr_homer | Is there a channel to discuss unity issue? | 17:51 |
| ardchoille | yekoms: ouch | 17:51 |
| yekoms | ARcaneWater, you can use torrents and it'll verify every data packet as its received. | 17:52 |
| trism | novato_br: definitely conky, see for instance http://www.webupd8.org/2011/06/conky-lunatico-rings-displays-system.html (you can do quite a bit with lua and conky) | 17:52 |
| yekoms | ardchoille, its germany...not my side. poor routing or something | 17:52 |
| ardchoille | ah | 17:52 |
| ARcaneWater | yekoms is it worth downloading Ubuntu 12.10 yet? | 17:52 |
| wilee-nilee | ARcaneWater, You can download via a torrent from the main ubuntu site I would do that. | 17:52 |
| ardchoille | ARcaneWater: you can but you need to get support in !ubuntu+1 until it's officially released | 17:52 |
| yekoms | i use 12.10, and i love it for a desktop. but not so much for the server branch | 17:53 |
| yekoms | wilee-nilee, i always download ubuntu VIA torrents, to prevent data corruption | 17:53 |
| ARcaneWater | I will need it for QT Creator actualy for c++ releated stuff | 17:53 |
| ardchoille | this late in the release cycle 12.10 is pretty mch final anyway | 17:53 |
| yekoms | im CURRENTLY using 12.04 on this notebook, i got one with 11.10 and 12.10 | 17:54 |
| ARcaneWater | so when offical release is out i will need to reinstall or it will just come as update? | 17:54 |
| wilee-nilee | yekoms, I use the daily downloads and rsync until they are released just for ease of travel, I have not had a bad download in years no matter what method, but torrents are supposedly better. | 17:54 |
| yekoms | you can do it via update | 17:54 |
| ARcaneWater | Ok :) I will go for the 12.10 :) | 17:54 |
| ARcaneWater | Great to see such support on these channel :) One more thing to love ubuntu :D | 17:55 |
| superpie | it's not always helpful | 17:55 |
| yekoms | wilee-nilee, well i quit using remote mirrors. i built me a mirror out of spare parts and a 1TB drive. so all my stuff is network install. i have hundreds of distros aswell. | 17:55 |
| wilee-nilee | ARcaneWater, You can get a daily image so you are up to date and have little or no updates the day if the capture. | 17:55 |
| yekoms | ARcaneWater, its not always like this, there is times that dicks are here :P | 17:55 |
| wilee-nilee | of* | 17:55 |
| wilee-nilee | yekoms, cool, ;) | 17:56 |
| yekoms | every Freebsd, ubuntu, openbsd centos debian out. | 17:56 |
| wilee-nilee | hehe sounds like a bit of maintenance | 17:57 |

| tomtiger11 | right... | 18:30 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: Then please refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address | 18:30 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: And UNLESS you REALLY need 16777216 addresses, DO NOT use a class A network. | 18:31 |
| werder | esing: just use the win 7 recovery disk to replace grub with windows bootloader. | 18:31 |
| tomtiger11 | bekks: I have to use 10. | 18:31 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: Because...? | 18:31 |
| esing | werder Are you sure windows bootloader can handle ubuntu? I thought I would need a third party windows 7 bootloader for that | 18:32 |
| tomtiger11 | because I can't use 192. or 172. | 18:32 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: YOU are creating the network. No one can force you to. :) | 18:32 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: Why cant you use 172.x e.g.? | 18:32 |

| tomtiger11 | because i will get my internet from another network | 18:32 |
| bekks | And...? | 18:32 |
| tomtiger11 | that uses 172 and 192 | 18:32 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: Either 172 OR 192 - not both in ONE network. | 18:33 |
| werder | esing: i know it can be done. There are a few tutorials. | 18:33 |

| wilee-nilee | esing, If you can't figure out the windows bootloader to ubuntu easybcd is used often, but to be honest grub 2 is better but that is my opinion. | 18:40 |
| basketballstar | why | 18:40 |
| OerHeks | basketballstar/harris, all your Q are answered in http://developer.ubuntu.com/publish/commercial-software-faqs/ | 18:40 |

| bekks | basketballstar: Name ONE reason I shall use your app and pay YOU when there are plenty of alternatives out there. | 18:41 |
| basketballstar | why would you pay me | 18:41 |
| werder | Its not the android app store. They're not the same. | 18:41 |
| basketballstar | the ads would pay me | 18:41 |
| dylan | hey guys | 18:41 |
| OerHeks | basketballstar, this discussion goes Offtopic | 18:41 |
| wilee-nilee | esing, Cool, grub 2 though has the os-prober which will auto find other OS's and put them in the grub menu, personally I like that function. | 18:41 |
| bekks | basketballstar: I'd not use an app which contains apps. | 18:41 |
| bekks | basketballstar: You would have to pay me to do so. | 18:41 |

| tomtiger11 | whats the netmask for 192.168.255.255 | 18:55 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: It is mentioned in the article I provided to you. | 18:55 |
| tomtiger11 | 255.255.0.0 doesnt work | 18:55 |
| BarkingFish | 255.255.255.0 :) | 18:56 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: 255.255.0.0 is the correct netmask for 192.168.255.255 | 18:56 |
| tomtiger11 | dhcp says otherwise | 18:56 |
| wilee-nilee | ArcaneWater, I can't find any references to linux or ubuntu with this computer, it seems to be a model that is specific for distribution outside of english speaking countries IE europe or the west, as I find most refrences in other languages, but this has to be a standard release by lenove I would think. | 18:56 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: DHCP does not use supernet, as you are trying. | 18:56 |
| tomtiger11 | it says bad subnet netmask combo | 18:57 |
| ArcaneWater | wilee-nilee i will try to burn one more dvd to see if it works or no :D | 18:57 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: Because DHCP does not use supernets. | 18:57 |
| bestdnd | 192.168.255.255 is the top address for mask 255.255.0.0. iirc the top and bottom addresses are not valid | 18:57 |
| wilee-nilee | ArcaneWater, Good idea if you have a usb flash I would try that as well. | 18:57 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: You really have to get to know what you are doing there. | 18:57 |
| ArcaneWater | Any specific installations for usb? | 18:57 |
| bekks | 192.168.255.255 is the broadcast address for the 192.168.0.0/16 supernet. | 18:58 |
| wilee-nilee | ArcaneWater, Just the loaders there are a handful to choose from unetbootin is commonly suggested. | 18:58 |
| tomtiger11 | i changed it to 192.168.255.254 | 18:59 |
| tomtiger11 | no difference | 18:59 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: You cannot change the broadcast address. | 18:59 |
| tomtiger11 | i meant the subnet... | 18:59 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: 192.168.255.254 is not a valid subnet mask. | 19:00 |
| tomtiger11 | bekks: What is a valid subnet? | 19:01 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: 255.255.0.0 is the valid subnet mask for your desired 192.168.0.0 network. | 19:01 |
| tomtiger11 | I'm talking about subnet numbet, not mask | 19:01 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: The subnet number is irrelevant at all. | 19:02 |

| tomtiger11 | bekkshttp://pastebin.com/W37KXcNy | 20:04 |
| tomtiger11 | Had to hand type all of that.. XD | 20:05 |

| === Guest64356 is now known as feelin-tuxy | ||
| bekks | tomtiger11: Thats not the output of ifconfig -a | 20:05 |
| XiaolinDraconis | i used killall conky, and now its using 30% | 20:05 |
| tomtiger11 | bekks: It is | 20:06 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: In addition, please pastebin the output of "netstat -rn" and "lsb_release -a" too. | 20:06 |
| feelin-tuxy | does anyone have offhand a PXE boot string for booting Ubuntu 12 over PXE? | 20:06 |
| feelin-tuxy | I only have this buggy one http://pastebin.com/WDfaDRaT | 20:06 |
| XiaolinDraconis | ok its closed now | 20:06 |
| tomtiger11 | bekks: This is torture. XD | 20:06 |
| feelin-tuxy | and it doesn't give me internet over wired connections | 20:06 |
| bekks | tomtiger11: NO. ifconfig _-a_ will show you the "lo" interface too. Dont try to fool me. | 20:06 |
| tomtiger11 | bekks: I know, I couldnt be arsed to type out the lo bit | 20:06 |
| XiaolinDraconis | normally conky dies instantly when i issue that command, wonder what was different this time | 20:07 |
| tryy3 | is it possible to change the amount i told ubuntu to use from a terminal? | 20:07 |
| illy | My chat and irssi won't accept dcc sends, they just stall at "receiving", how can i fix this ? | 20:07 |
| tomtiger11 | bekks: Il do the lo interface if its so important. | 20:07 |
| XiaolinDraconis | tryy3, do you mean change the amount of hard drive ubuntu is using? | 20:08 |
| basketballstar | does it count as programming if you copy the codes from a book | 20:08 |
| XiaolinDraconis | it counts as programming study... | 20:08 |
| tryy3 | XiaolinDraconis ye i wanna add more amount | 20:08 |

| tomtiger11 | ?* | 20:08 |
| jrib | basketballstar: you can talk about things like that in #ubuntu-offtopic; #ubuntu is dedicated to support | 20:09 |
| tryy3 | XiaolinDraconis okej will check it out thanks! | 20:09 |
| feelin-tuxy | speaking of support, does anyone here have a PXE server?? | 20:09 |
| feelin-tuxy | I need to borrow some lines of code from it, if it's in working condition | 20:09 |
| tomtiger11 | bekks: You do realise since my ubuntu computer has no internet connection at all, I have to hand type this. | 20:09 |
| tryy3 | XiaolinDraconis will it require me to use a gui or is it possible to do it thorugh a termina= | 20:10 |

| xiamx | thinkpad laptop screen appear tint blue (i.e. pure white color looks blue-ish) is there anyway I can fix this with program? | 20:16 |
| jrib | illy: probably a firewall issue. If you have a router, check its firewall | 20:16 |
| OerHeks | tomtiger11, you started with "Its going to be in a school, so I cant have a 192.168 internal" and you are not at the school to install your LTSP server ..? | 20:17 |
| janisozaur | jrib: i have a package installed, that is newer than the required one by another package. i am well aware of what i bring upon myself, but being a system developer i see no issue in that. | 20:17 |
| stephenh | anyone using likewise-open and able to ssh without specifying the windows domain? | 20:17 |
| guntbert | tomtiger11: just a hint: you needn't type those things, you can always save the output to a file -> thumb-drive -> networked computer -> pastebin | 20:17 |
| tomtiger11 | guntbert: That would be even longer XD | 20:18 |
| tomtiger11 | OerHeks: I can now use the last end of 192.168. internal | 20:18 |
| jrib | janisozaur: ideally you would update the other package to have proper dependencies (i.e. allow for the newer version). Either it doesn't work with the newer version, it does and the package wasn't created correctly | 20:19 |
| helder | I need an ubuntu app that is completely written in python | 20:19 |

| jrib | janisozaur: fix the package | 20:20 |
| tomtiger11 | guntbert: Maybe, but my only one is lost | 20:20 |
| KM0201 | meetri: that's weird.. this may seem obvious, but are you sure you're putting in the right local IP? | 20:20 |
| stephenh | meetri: wrong ip most likely | 20:20 |

| tryy3 | XiaolinDraconis isn't there anyway to change the amount ubuntu uses of your hdd through the terminal? | 20:21 |
| KM0201 | meetri: have you tried setting up a software firewall on either machine?.. | 20:21 |
| meetri | stephenh: nothing shows up, did i mention it's a wireless network. | 20:21 |

| KM0201 | meetri: doesn't really matter, so long as you're both on the same network | 20:22 |

| silverarrow | dorkmafia, xp recovery does not work? | 20:51 |
| LordOfTime | gordonjcp: i'd suggest not bringing your opinions in, such as "that never really works well", as it has been proven to work in many instances. | 20:52 |
| dorkmafia | since the hardware has changed xp is requireing me to activate it | 20:52 |
| Tryy3 | guntbert oh found it :D | 20:52 |
| gordonjcp | LordOfTime: it's not really opinion, sorry if you don't agree | 20:52 |
| dorkmafia | and i don't have the keys anymore | 20:52 |
| gordonjcp | LordOfTime: not to enter a beard-length-war but once you've written an X server you can criticise me ;-) | 20:53 |
| silverarrow | dorkmafia: I have used puppy linux, it reads hd/sda1-2... fine, but it is a maze to search trough | 20:53 |
| gordonjcp | Tryy3: so you're on Windows, you're using Putty to connect to a Linux box | 20:53 |
| gordonjcp | Tryy3: correct so far? | 20:53 |
| Tryy3 | gordonjcp ye | 20:53 |
| gordonjcp | Tryy3: so you're going to need some sort of X server on your Windows machine | 20:53 |
| Tryy3 | i think it worked... | 20:53 |
| LordOfTime | gordonjcp: which is what guntbert has been saying all along, you're a tad late to the convo :/ | 20:54 |
| Tryy3 | gordonjcp ye | 20:54 |

| dorkmafia | I was thinking of installing ubuntu on a seperate disk or even a usb stick boot off ... would I then be able to at least browse the files on the xp raid? | 20:54 |
| silverarrow | drorkmafia; I found documents, and sent it to a large usb flash memory, and it read fine when booted in windows | 20:54 |

| dorkmafia | i don't have the xp cd anymore | 20:56 |
| silverarrow | dorkmafia: it should be able to, but I found puppylinxu to be easier to maneuver. I think disk utility have some data rescue function too | 20:56 |
| Tryy3 | gordonjcp i dont know what quake is :D | 20:56 |
| escott | dorkmafia, you could keep asking questions or you could see if you can read it when you boot the livecd or liveusb | 20:56 |

| gordonjcp | frankcox777: what's w/ ? | 21:22 |
| escott | yekoms, anyone who has the ability to do that is already root | 21:22 |
| yekoms | frankcox777, next time, say the user forget there password | 21:22 |
| yekoms | escott, when you chroot a binded mount, your already root i believe. | 21:22 |
| frankcox777 | gordon- I am trying to solve forgotten pword problem | 21:22 |
| gordonjcp | frankcox777: have you read the password factoid? | 21:22 |

| frankcox777 | I did yekoms | 21:22 |
| WeThePeople | how do i make it so my xp partition doesnt show up in places? | 21:22 |
| escott | yekoms, so why not just run passwd | 21:23 |
| frankcox777 | yes I have read many | 21:23 |
| azertyu | lsof -i on remote host working ? guntbert | 21:23 |
| yekoms | escott, when your chroot, does passwd set it on the livecd or the binded mount? | 21:23 |
| gordonjcp | frankcox777: so have you actually done what it says? | 21:23 |
| escott | yekoms, when you are chrooted it cant access anything outside the chroot | 21:23 |
| frankcox777 | I followed the instructions but no luck- I have done the same thing a dozen times with no problem | 21:24 |
| yekoms | well he did a recovery | 21:24 |
| bekks | yekoms: it will set it inside the chroot - on your harddisk. | 21:24 |
| yekoms | escott, thanks | 21:24 |
| yekoms | frankcox777, boot the live cd, mount --bind /dev/sda1 /mnt; mount --bind procfs /mnt; chroot /mnt | 21:24 |
| guntbert | azertyu: did you say it was a remote host? then I overlooked that. no, lsof will not help in that case - user nmap instead or (as already suggested) telnet host port | 21:24 |
| yekoms | then issue passwd, and reboot machine and see if it works | 21:24 |
| frankcox777 | easier just reinstall - thanks anyway | 21:25 |
| yekoms | if that dont work, nothing will. save /home and format. | 21:25 |

| Chunkin | i am brand new to ubuntu, and was wondering how to get rid of some graphical bugs | 21:32 |

| steveGODSchild | I installled ubuntu on virtual box does that make a difference | 22:28 |
| yekoms | steveGODSchild, i dont see why not. | 22:29 |
| yekoms | it should run as if its installed on a physical hard drive.. | 22:29 |
| escott | yekoms, no | 22:30 |
| steveGODSchild | why wont my dvd burner work then | 22:30 |
| yekoms | are you passing the device inside vbox? | 22:30 |
| yekoms | !vbox | 22:30 |
| ubottu | Virtualbox is a virtualizer for x86 and amd64 architectures. It's available in the package "virtualbox" in the !repositories, and you can download the Virtualbox Extension Pack for additional, non-Free functionality at http://virtualbox.org . Additional details can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 22:30 |
| bekks | steveGODSchild: Yes, it does. | 22:31 |
| bekks | steveGODSchild: You have to enable the setting for passing through the device, which is described in the vbox manual. | 22:31 |
| yekoms | bekks, i just asked him if he passed the device in vbox lol | 22:32 |
| steveGODSchild | I try to use sound juicer and it says no cd rom | 22:32 |
| yekoms | shutdown the vbox image, pass your cdrom device into the vbox image settings, and restart | 22:33 |
| bekks | You dont have to shutdown the vm to do so. | 22:33 |
| yekoms | havnt used vbox in two years so i can remember exactly what tab its under and all that. | 22:33 |
| yekoms | i havnt* | 22:33 |

| escott | WHOisAmanda, ls | 22:40 |
| WHOisAmanda | they are on d desktop | 22:40 |
| chinneseproduct | _Tristan, i got it from here http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html#374 | 22:40 |
| akthomas | in the Configuration section there is a line :: add a command that copies /etc/ppp/resolv.conf to /etc/resolv.conf. | 22:40 |
| escott | chinneseproduct, thats not a supported manner | 22:40 |
| aguitel | if i recize some partition ,change the UUID ? | 22:41 |
| _Tristan | chinneseproduct: not only is it "unsupported", it | 22:41 |
| _Tristan | is horrible. | 22:41 |
| escott | aguitel, a resize should not change the UUID | 22:42 |
| chinneseproduct | escott, as applies in windows microsoft installation of any software is to go up to setup file then open it will start execute | 22:42 |
| _Tristan | the very fact that you attempted to install apache in that way makes me want to curl up and die. | 22:42 |
| krababbel | aguitel: I think maybe if you change the start of a partition | 22:42 |
| chinneseproduct | escott,+t as applies in windows microsoft installation of any software is to go up to setup file then open it will start execute | 22:42 |
| _Tristan | chinneseproduct: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP | 22:42 |
| escott | chinneseproduct, if you like that then i would suggest you install windows. thats not how it is done here | 22:42 |
| aguitel | escott, ok | 22:42 |
| chinneseproduct | escott, so wat can i do | 22:43 |
| tozen | hi people is there any chance to switch off-on power from usb in ubuntu- terminal? | 22:43 |
| _Tristan | chinneseproduct: again, install "taskel" and run it | 22:43 |
| escott | tozen, you want to turn off a usb device/bus | 22:44 |
| Treaver1 | Can someone help me install PS3MediaServer the ppa isn't working | 22:44 |
| chinneseproduct | _Tristan, what is tskel | 22:44 |
| jagginess | tozen, probably not, i think the linux sleeping drivers are all still a WIP (work in progress... for any linux, not just ubuntu) | 22:44 |
| _Tristan | chinneseproduct: taskel is a program that makes it very easy for system administrators to install common server software, such as a LAMP stack. | 22:44 |
| jagginess | tozen, device sleeping/waking is still *problematic with linux | 22:44 |
| chinneseproduct | _Tristan, and hoow about php and msql | 22:45 |
| tozen | thx folks | 22:45 |
| _Tristan | chinneseproduct: Linux Apache Mysql Php | 22:45 |
| jagginess | tozen, but the "end" devices with their own "power" switch, of course they turn off themselves, but the usb port of the computer is still listening with power on | 22:45 |
| _Tristan | chinneseproduct: AKA LAMP | 22:45 |
| chinneseproduct | _Tristan, i want to install both of em | 22:45 |
| djwonk | hi, I edited /etc/security/limits.conf and changed some limits for an elasticsseach user, but I'm not seeing the changes picked up when I: sudo su - elasticsearch THEN ulimit -Sn | 22:46 |
| chinneseproduct | _Tristan, thanksssss alotttt friend | 22:46 |
| _Tristan | chinneseproduct: if you type "sudo apt-get install taskel && sudo taskel" in your terminal, you will have a VERY hard time NOT installing what you want. | 22:46 |
| chinneseproduct | _Tristan, so how can i tackle it LAMP | 22:47 |
| chinneseproduct | _Tristan, can i have the apt-get install command for LAMP installation | 22:48 |
| escott | djwonk, the limits will need to be reparsed and loaded into the kernel. a reboot should make that happen | 22:48 |
| Npc | i've got this realtek wlan in my laptop which performs poorly with ubuntu but ok with windows | 22:48 |
| bekks | chinneseproduct: Install "tasksel", run it, and select the packages you want. | 22:48 |
| Cyberspaceloa | tasksel can bork an ubuntu system pretty hard | 22:48 |
| Npc | i thought about changing the driver | 22:48 |
| Cyberspaceloa | from what I recall, it's usually when trying to remove packages | 22:49 |
| Npc | the read me for the driver says to do make install | 22:49 |
| djwonk | escott I hope so :) I've seen some suggestions online that they will happen right away | 22:49 |
| Npc | but do i have to blacklist the previous driver first manually? | 22:49 |
| Cyberspaceloa | chinneseproduct: apparently there isn't a metapackage for lamp anymore | 22:49 |
| Cyberspaceloa | chinneseproduct: if you use tasksel, read up on it first and be very cautious | 22:50 |
| chinneseproduct | bekks, read the_Tristan comment | 22:50 |
| escott | djwonk, its certainly not going to be right away. the limits need to be in the kernel (otherwise every file write involves a slow path read against /etc) | 22:50 |
| _Tristan | Cyberspaceloa: I think the risks should be mitigated by OP's complete inability to comprehend basic logic, the likelihood of taskel actually being used is probably something like 2% | 22:50 |
| djwonk | escott: you are right. i misspoke. the articles say after a user login the changes should be picked up. a reboot is pretty drastic | 22:51 |
| chinneseproduct | Cyberspaceloa, what can i do cuz am shocking with ur caution | 22:51 |
| escott | djwonk, if you look at man limits it references pam_limits, my guess is it gets picked up on login when pam_limits.so reparses the file | 22:51 |
| Cyberspaceloa | _Tristan: perhaps, although I'd argue that inexperienced users will have a harder time avoiding the removal of critical desktop packages | 22:51 |
| Cyberspaceloa | chinneseproduct: as far as I know, tasksel is the only neatly packaged way of installing a LAMP server | 22:52 |
| _Tristan | Cyberspaceloa: IMO, if you're gonna use ubuntu without reading installation side-effects, you're gonna have a bad time. | 22:52 |
| Treaver1 | Can anyone help me with the Playstion Media Server | 22:52 |
| Tryy3 | is there somewhere i can find the roots password? i might accidently lost it :S | 22:52 |
| escott | Tryy3, no | 22:52 |
| _Tristan | with or without taskel, I mean | 22:53 |
| chinneseproduct | Cyberspaceloa, ennnnhhee whats ur cautious warning me | 22:53 |
| djwonk | escott: ok. I still don't understand when I need to learn more about pam … in this case, my changes are not getting picked up. is there a log file I can check to see why not? | 22:53 |
| Tryy3 | escott :S | 22:53 |
| Cyberspaceloa | chinneseproduct: hold on, give me a second | 22:53 |
| Tryy3 | escott how can i get my root password back then? | 22:53 |
| escott | djwonk, try /var/log/auth.log | 22:53 |
| chinneseproduct | Cyberspaceloa, ok am waiting for u to direct me on that case | 22:53 |
| escott | Tryy3, root doesn't have a password. so there is no password to get back | 22:54 |
| n0sq | looks like lubuntu doesn't fix my problem either - guess it's time for a newer computer | 22:54 |

| ubottu | Tryy3: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 22:57 |
| bekks | Tryy3: It was the most insane idea ever. :) | 22:57 |
| djwonk | escott: ok, cool, I see logs of logins, but no diagnostic info about the limits. I do see a "pam_unix(sudo:session): session opened for user elasticsearch by david(uid=1000)" -- thats it. any other ideas on how to figure out why limits are not being picked up? | 22:58 |
| escott | djwonk, its not something im too familiar with honestly. you might also check syslog | 22:58 |
| Tryy3 | bekks oh well, you learn by mistakes :D may i ask why its a insane idea? | 22:58 |
| Tryy3 | escott i was to lazy to read that ^_^ | 22:58 |

| Tryy3 | bekks but i dont like reading ;( | 22:59 |
| bekks | Tryy3: Then you dont like learning. | 22:59 |
| escott | Tryy3, install openssh-server and use it. you can use scp or use their sftp module if the ftp syntax is so desirable to you | 23:00 |
| TimothyA | does it support FXP? :D | 23:00 |
| Tryy3 | bekks i like to learn the hard way :D | 23:00 |
| Tryy3 | escott iam using winSCP on port 22 to access some sort of ftp is that sftp? | 23:00 |
| escott | Tryy3, port 22 is ssh. so thats good | 23:01 |

Some things open on my laptop, others open up on the TV. I have the TV set as an extension, so I can play with my laptop while my daughter watches a movie. | 23:08 |

| l0p3n | silverarrow: I think there is an addon to remove them called betterprivacy | 23:40 |
| silverarrow | l0p3n: would it work in Ubuntu too? I have no adobe flash, and I`m not sure if it is LSO, I have Gnash, which possibly acts the same | 23:41 |
| l0p3n | yes it is an firefox addon | 23:42 |
| l0p3n | *a | 23:42 |
| silverarrow | l0p3n: I have it intsalled, but it never detects anything, like it does in windows. | 23:42 |
| silverarrow | which might be because I have no adobe flash player | 23:43 |
| silverarrow | I have trouble with scrips running, and major lag in browser | 23:43 |
| l0p3n | Are you using many addons? | 23:44 |
| silverarrow | l0p3n: just a downloader, | 23:45 |
| silverarrow | l0p3n: well, maybe loads with gnash browser plugin packages, gecko and all the default ones | 23:45 |

| ranjan | hi all, is there gnome 3.6 packages available for Ubuntu 12.04? | 23:46 |
| silverarrow | ranjan: from quantal? | 23:47 |
| rogue780 | hi. I'm trying to install Xubuntu 12.04 on a Dell Poweredge SC440 onto a fresh WD 1TB drive. I install successfully (using alternate xubuntu installer), and grub installs successfully with grub-install /dev/sda. When the computer restarts, it says it cannot find a bootable drive | 23:47 |
| rogue780 | does anyone have any suggestions to remedy this? | 23:47 |
| ranjan | silverarrow, i am asking about precise | 23:48 |
| trism | ls612: thanks, http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise-updates/linux-backports-modules-cw-3.4-3.2.0-29-generic this should be the proper link | 23:48 |
| wilee-nilee | ranjan, I believe there is a ppa. | 23:49 |
| ls612 | Thanks, I'll try that. | 23:49 |
| ranjan | wilee-nilee, for latest gnome 3.6? | 23:49 |
| silverarrow | this is the script http://s0.2mdn.net/879366/inpageGlobalTemplate_v2_71_03.js:71 | 23:49 |
| silverarrow | or what came up in the warning | 23:50 |
| silverarrow | I have never had that in ubuntu before | 23:50 |
| wilee-nilee | ranjan, Not sure exactly, I can't find it at the moment but another was asking yesterday about a backport to 12.04 when I saw it I just didn't save it. | 23:50 |
| silverarrow | sorry, wrong channel | 23:50 |
| ranjan | wilee-nilee, ok | 23:50 |
| wilee-nilee | ranjan, have you seen the bottom panel change in the above precise gnome 3.4 templates? | 23:54 |

| rogue780 | anyone? | 23:54 |
| wilee-nilee | rogue780, This the only drive? | 23:55 |
| rogue780 | yes | 23:55 |
| zykotick9 | rogue780: i'd check to verify that HD is selected as a bootable device? in the bios-like thing. | 23:55 |
| l0p3n | silverarrow: Maybe this can help you. Other than that I don't know what's slowing down your firefox. http://www.howtogeek.com/119550/browser-slow-how-to-make-mozilla-firefox-fast-again/ | 23:55 |
| wilee-nilee | rogue780, how did you run that command and where? | 23:55 |
| wilee-nilee | /dev/sda | 23:56 |
| rogue780 | zykotick9, according to cfdisk, /dev/sda1 has the boot flag set | 23:56 |
| zykotick9 | rogue780: boot flags mean NOTHING to grub | 23:56 |
| rogue780 | wilee-nilee, it was automatically run during the install, but after the first failed boot, I booted from the install media ins to recovery mode and ran grub-install /dev/sda | 23:56 |
| silverarrow | l0p3n: this address came up as warning with the option to turn it off http://s0.2mdn.net/879366/inpageGlobalTemplate_v2_71_03.js:71 | 23:57 |
| wilee-nilee | rogue780, If you mean the cd it has to be a chroot in to run it. | 23:57 |
| LadyLight | how do i download ubuntu with a USB on my dell computer? | 23:58 |
| l0p3n | silverarrow: hmm strange, I did not get any of those | 23:58 |
| moment | uhmn if i change some file in a git repos and i want them to change back to what they used to be then how do i go about doing that? | 23:58 |
| BlackNarcissus | Hello everyone. I am using 12.04 on a Netbook with Radeon HD video chipset, the default radeon free drivers, and fullscreen videos in browser are very slow and choppy. Be it flash or html5. I tried everything I could, any advise ? Thanks. | 23:58 |
| rogue780 | wilee-nilee, what do you mean? when selecting recovery mode, it asks where I want the shell's root to be. I chose /dev/sda1 | 23:58 |
| wilee-nilee | rogue780, I would say running the bootscript would be a good idea. | 23:59 |
| wilee-nilee | for us to look at the whole setup | 23:59 |
| silverarrow | l0p3n: wonder what it is | 23:59 |
