| dsa | llutz, thank you again for helping :D now i'm safe to fool around with iptables! but still curious about those .dat, if they restore several files related to iptables or just one in specific.. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| digitalvaldosta | Can anyone point me to a web page that will show how to customize the Guest session? I would like to change the default desktop environment from unity to something else without the user having to change it everytime. | 00:08 |
| dsa | strange can't find the .dat file i created :S | 00:10 |
| * digitalvaldosta Any ideas? | 00:11 | |
| digitalvaldosta | Not sure where (if it is possible) the configuration of the Guest account would be. I know standard accounts get their defaults from /ect/skel/ | 00:13 |
| gordonjcp | digitalvaldosta: in #ubuntu we do try to discourage people from giving "JFGI" answers | 00:14 |
| gordonjcp | digitalvaldosta: but with this in mind, have you tried typing "ubuntu customise guest account" into a search engine? | 00:14 |
| lime__ | Where can I download an original copy of /usr/share/X11/symbols I unable to switch between keyboard maps after messing with the settings | 00:14 |
| digitalvaldosta | @gordonjcp, what does jfgi mean? | 00:15 |

| gordonjcp | digitalvaldosta: "just google it", kind of | 00:15 |
| digitalvaldosta | @gordonjcp, I have done that and keep finding antiquated posts about disabling the guest account in 11.04 | 00:15 |
| gordonjcp | digitalvaldosta: what's the @ for? this isn't twitter | 00:16 |
| gordonjcp | http://askubuntu.com/questions/9515/how-do-i-change-the-guest-session-defaults | 00:16 |

| agrester | Looking for advice: Have a dual boot setup with Windows XP and Xubuntu 12.04 and I have a partition that's currently free. I would like to install Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on this partition so I can use Unity in a separate system from my Xubuntu setup...How can I triple boot Xubuntu || Windows XP || Ubuntu 12.04 ? | 00:46 |
| rfultz | its supported by default to triple boot I have backtrack win 8 win 7 and ubuntu 12.04 | 00:46 |
| rfultz | just make sure when installing 12.04 that you pick the right partition | 00:46 |
| agrester | +rfultz, so when I install I use the "Additional Options" menu at the installer and then I choose to install a '/' root there for Ubuntu? | 00:47 |
| agrester | Then done, and when I startup Grub will auto-detect the other one? | 00:48 |
| rfultz | +agrester yes it should work that way bc the install client for ubuntu 12.04 has a gui partition manager | 00:49 |
| rfultz | so you can use that to make sure it works and itll partition correctly | 00:49 |
| agrester | rfultz, could I install it while logged into Xubuntu? | 00:49 |

| dsa | ubuntu desktop doesn't come with any firewall enabled? | 00:52 |
| agrester | ok, thanks | 00:52 |
| sid|1 | ok so im trying to install znc | 00:53 |
| sid|1 | do i really have to have a server? | 00:53 |
| Jordan_U | !firewall | dsa | 00:54 |
| ubot93 | dsa: Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw (GNOME) and Guarddog (KDE from Lucid onwards) also exist. | 00:54 |
| Jordan_U | dsa: All ports are open by default, but almost no services listening by default. The idea being that if you install a service like Apache, you probably want it to work by default, and a default of no listening service on a port is just as good if not better than a default of multiple listening services being blocked by a firewall configuration. | 00:55 |
| Isarra | Is isc-dhcp-server6 the ipv6 one? | 00:56 |
| dsa | right no it comes disabled, but for security issues ssh should have rules to limit login attempts which aparently can only be set using ufw/iptables rules | 00:58 |
| jrib | sid|1: uh, you can install znc wherever you want. It's usually used on a machine that tends to be always on though... | 00:58 |
| sid|1 | oh ok | 00:58 |

| Awk9000 | Hey guys, I'm in the ubuntu-arm channel as well but not getting any responses, but I have a more general question: I' | 01:01 |
| user123abc | I'm trying to solve a sound issue with wine on 11.04. the folks there suggested that I look for lib32asound, but there's no package under that name in my repo. can anyone tell me the 11.04 equivalent? | 01:01 |
| jrib | dsa: I just use denyhosts | 01:01 |
| dsa | jrib, which lead to http://www.sollers.ca/blog/2008/iptables_recent/ which refer to iptables instead of ufw | 01:01 |
| Awk9000 | I'm trying to recompile the kernel for ubuntu-arm with CFG80211 and MAC80211 set to "M" for module and am running into 'undefined reference to' errors | 01:02 |
| dsa | deny hosts? | 01:02 |
| jrib | dsa: you can use iptables, ufw is basically just a nice frontend to setting iptables rules | 01:02 |
| Awk9000 | was wondering if anyone had any ideas or could point me in the right direction? | 01:02 |
| Riley88 | seriously does anyone know what im talking about im really getting annoyed | 01:02 |
| jrib | dsa: denyhosts and fail2ban are two similar programs that analyze ssh login attempts and just block logins from hosts that seem to be trying to brute force | 01:03 |
| dsa | jrib, im interested on ufw now =) i just enabled it on the computer im messing with | 01:03 |
| jrib | Riley88: please see what ubottu just said. If no one knows the answer, no one can answer you. | 01:03 |
| Awk9000 | ie: /root/ubuntu-nexus7/drivers/net/wireless/bcmdhd/wl_cfg80211.c:6016: undefined reference to `cfg80211_scan_done' | 01:03 |
| jrib | dsa: ok | 01:03 |
| dsa | jrib, cool denyhosts seems to be the way to go then and just disble ufw for now then :D | 01:04 |
| Awk9000 | anyway i know all you guys are super busy answering questions but if anyone has any thoughts or ideas it would be greatly appreciated | 01:04 |
| Awk9000 | thanks | 01:04 |
| jrib | dsa: yeah, to me it seems like a better solution if your intent is to try to mitigate brute forcing attempts | 01:04 |
| dsa | thank you jrib =) get denyhosts with apt-get? | 01:05 |
| jrib | dsa: yep | 01:05 |
| p1r4t3-b0y | hello | 01:05 |
| OerHeks | Awk9000, try #ubuntu-arm | 01:07 |
| dsa | jrib, yeah indeed its just for that, it seems to be the best solution for the issue thank you =) | 01:08 |
| jrib | dsa: if you have lots of users connecting who tend to forget passwords, you might want to relax the settings unless you want to get frequent e-mails about being "locked out" (users seem to like trying the same wrong username/password 20 times in a row...) | 01:09 |

| JonathanDawdy | Hello anyone here who can help me with a windows ishue. | 02:14 |
| seednode | Um... | 02:14 |
| seednode | You're kinda in #ubuntu | 02:14 |
| Gnea | JonathanDawdy: this is #ubuntu, not ##windows | 02:14 |
| Shiven | JonathanDawdy: format. solution found. | 02:14 |
| Gnea | and don't forget to partition | 02:15 |
| hrolf | Shiven: Yesterday it stopped working then I exec the commands "modprobe -r psmouse" and "modprobe psmouse proto=imps" | 02:15 |
| JonathanDawdy | I know this happend after ubuntu came. so obviusly it involves ubuntu. | 02:15 |
| hrolf | and it started working again, but then scrolling was not working | 02:15 |
| user123abc | the X button closes the window, the thing that looks like a line minimizes it | 02:15 |
| Atlantean | JonathanDawdy microsoft has ties with google, so you can google it | 02:15 |
| hrolf | and now I start and it is not even moving | 02:15 |
| Atlantean | however feel free to ask away | 02:15 |
| user123abc | if you click on the top bar and move the mouse around, the window moves | 02:15 |
| Gnea | JonathanDawdy: well until you explain the whole issue, we can only assume that you meant it for ##windows | 02:15 |
| JonathanDawdy | I tried, why do you think im here | 02:15 |
| Gnea | JonathanDawdy: most people are lazy and won't google first. | 02:16 |
| Shiven | hrolf: i'd start by checking it wasn't physically damaged (ie livecd) just so you don't go down the (frustrating) path of hacking up an xconfig to find its dead. Whilst it sounds like its just intermittant, its to save time long term :) | 02:16 |
| Atlantean | gnea its harder to connect on freenode than to google ;p | 02:16 |
| Shiven | JonathanDawdy: most people would've said the issue by now | 02:16 |
| Atlantean | plus that | 02:16 |
| JonathanDawdy | OK whole isshue when loading windows7 its startes to loud the drivers(right before login but after windows logo screen) | 02:16 |
| Shiven | JonathanDawdy: and we'll know if its to do with ubuntu or not | 02:16 |
| JonathanDawdy | And it freazes | 02:16 |
| Gnea | Atlantean: I have to type 4 things and press enter to get here. I have to type 10 things and press enter to get to google.com :-) | 02:17 |
| Shiven | JonathanDawdy: thats outside of the scope of this channel, if you get to a bootscreen at all, you've left ubuntu | 02:17 |
| Atlantean | i have to open mirc and press 1 button to get here ;p | 02:17 |
| JonathanDawdy | This has been happening more and more since i got ubuntu. | 02:17 |
| Gnea | of course, since I use Google Chrome, typing 'go' is sufficient, so yes, it IS easier to get to google than it is to get here. | 02:17 |
| Atlantean | i hate chrome, firefox for the win | 02:18 |
| Atlantean | customized little bit ofc | 02:18 |
| hrolf | Shiven: is it necessasry that I check with LiveCD, how about I test it and see if it is working in Windows? | 02:18 |
| jason | o/ | 02:18 |
| Gnea | JonathanDawdy: well, have you tried booting into safe mode? | 02:18 |
| Shiven | hrolf: also works, i don't have windows so livecd was first thought :p | 02:18 |

| Shiven | Atlantean: tried a more lightweight distro? | 02:21 |
| Shiven | Atlantean: cause its sortof wierd if its running slow, ubuntu isn't -that- bloated | 02:21 |
| Atlantean | i've tried almost every linux distro from ubuntu to slackware and ark ;) | 02:21 |
| seednode | I liked Arch, personally. | 02:21 |
| Shiven | intriguing, i'd love to have a strike at that lol | 02:22 |
| Atlantean | still you have to setup everything from the scratch which i love | 02:22 |
| Atlantean | i like to know what's my computer is running | 02:22 |
| Shiven | i'm running chakra right now (arch variant) with very little support... i knew ubuntu used pulse so i came here lol | 02:22 |
| Atlantean | and the kind of exposure | 02:22 |
| Atlantean | but ofc ubuntu has a strong cumminity behind it | 02:22 |
| Atlantean | so its kind the only path if you want it for general use | 02:23 |
| Shiven | Atlantean: thats exactly why i wouldn't use ubuntu on a production machine... but each to their own | 02:23 |
| bug-traq | linux is made up for all kinds of uses | 02:23 |

| frankko | Hell yeah! "Killingfloor" works on linux =) | 02:23 |
| frankko | got it from steam | 02:24 |
| Atlantean | the only issue with linux is the drivers | 02:24 |
| hrolf | Shiven: Actually, it works fine until I login, after which it stops working. | 02:24 |
| Atlantean | creative drivers tbexact | 02:24 |
| hrolf | Shiven: It was moving in the login screen but as soon I logged in, it stops.. | 02:24 |
| Shiven | hrolf: drop back to console, and install gpm. see if its working in console | 02:24 |
| frankko | Atlantean, Atleast linus now has a lot better support for nvidia cards than windows xp and vista | 02:24 |

| Shiven | hrolf: you're using default unity / gnome2? or a kde variant? | 02:25 |
| Atlantean | but i am still researching for eizo monitor drivers | 02:25 |
| Atlantean | i am thinking of writing them on my own | 02:25 |
| hrolf | Shiven: default unity | 02:25 |

| hatsaresilly | I could use some help with compiz, is this the right place to ask? | 02:32 |
| bug-traq | compiz , depends on what kind of video card you are running | 02:33 |
| === fisted is now known as Guest21723 | ||
| hatsaresilly | It's a radeon | 02:33 |
| bug-traq | you have ubuntu tweak installed ??/ | 02:33 |
| almoxarife | hatsaresilly: how about the obvious question, what about compiz is the issue? | 02:34 |
| zoktar | almoxarife, well, normally atleast what i rememberd is when an app crashes you are presented with a dialogue about the crash, and if i want to send a report, etc etc and then eventually send you to launchpad with the details, to select to make the crash report, but i never get to launchpad and most of the time it doenst "relaunc" the app when selected | 02:34 |
| hatsaresilly | no, here's the deal. Everything was working fine. Except for remotely logging in with ultraVNC. It would only show the first frame. | 02:34 |
| almoxarife | zoktar: what app? | 02:35 |
| hatsaresilly | I ran into this before and the solution was to disable effects. | 02:35 |
| zoktar | almoxarife, hmm any of them really. | 02:35 |
| zoktar | almoxarife, yes all of them | 02:35 |
| bug-traq | that is basically all compiz is , its for special effects na dit all depends on the kind and size of the video card | 02:36 |
| hatsaresilly | This time I was using the latest version of Ubuntu and couldn't disable the effects, so I got the compizconfig thing and disabled a bunch of stuff, probably opengl in the process. | 02:36 |
| almoxarife | zoktar: alrighty | 02:36 |
| hatsaresilly | Now I cant see any windows or anything just the desktop background. | 02:36 |
| zoktar | almoxarife, can i like clear the crash cache or something if its clogged up somehow? | 02:36 |
| hatsaresilly | I can still get to shell, and the system runs fine other than that. | 02:37 |
| bug-traq | hey hatsaresilly , did you remove it through the repository or in the software-center , or just from the settings screen ??? | 02:38 |
| almoxarife | hatsaresilly: sounds like you clobbered the compiz settings, compiz is a user app or system? lets assume user, delete your compiz config folder within user space | 02:38 |
| bug-traq | thats why i use linux maverick , it doesnt have to have all the bells and whistles the other distros have or need | 02:39 |
| hatsaresilly | Hmm, ok. Where exactly would that be almoxarife? | 02:39 |
| hatsaresilly | I didn't remove compiz bug-traq, almoxarife is right, I clobbered some settings. | 02:39 |
| kevinc | hi | 02:40 |
| kevinc | I have a home server thats going to be running sabnzbd, transmission, nfs, samba, etc, only going to be used for a few hours a day. I don't mind using WOL, is there an easy to way to hibernate/suspend the server when there is little network activity or something to that extent? | 02:41 |
| almoxarife | zoktar: you got bigger problems if all your apps crash, but you could un-install the 'reporting' facility, not sure what it is, still leaves you with apps crashing though, you should look at /var/log/syslog for something obvious why all the crashes | 02:41 |
| almoxarife | hatsaresilly: i run KDE, i dont have compiz | 02:43 |
| hatsaresilly | ok, what about user space. That's the part I'm not sure i understand. You mean /usr ? | 02:44 |
| hatsaresilly | or /home or something/ | 02:44 |
| almoxarife | hatsaresilly: no, your /home/somename/ | 02:44 |
| hatsaresilly | ok | 02:44 |
| almoxarife | hatsaresilly: /.config? | 02:45 |
| hatsaresilly | probably that or .compiz or something | 02:45 |

| almoxarife | hatsaresilly: do you need compiz? | 02:50 |
| hatsaresilly | kinda | 02:50 |
| hatsaresilly | i think? | 02:50 |
| almoxarife | hatsaresilly: ah | 02:50 |
| hatsaresilly | I need to be able to see the desktop, but i dont need effects | 02:50 |
| almoxarife | hatsaresilly: unless you need glitz on the desktop you dont need it | 02:51 |
| hatsaresilly | ok then no i dont need it | 02:51 |
| almoxarife | hatsaresilly: if you dont have it, vnc may not act up\ | 02:51 |
| hatsaresilly | I could almost run this thing headless, but I'm not quite comfortable enough yet for that. | 02:51 |
| hatsaresilly | You are probably right about that. VNC doesn't seem to like compiz | 02:52 |
| almoxarife | hatsaresilly: i opt for the lesser headless, ssh with x, works for me | 02:52 |
| almoxarife | B0101: if you are having connection issues then you should see it with other apps, like the browser, do you have problems with the browser? | 02:53 |
| B0101 | almoxarife: Nope, the browser works as per normal | 02:53 |
| almoxarife | B0101: where are you downloading updates from, the mirror you chose is? | 02:54 |
| kevinc | anybody have a suspend from network inactivity script they want to share? | 02:55 |
| B0101 | almoxarife: my computer uses: sg.archive.ubuntu.com | 02:56 |
| almoxarife | B0101: choose a more common mirror, try us.archive.......... , as a test, if it works then dont use 'sg' | 02:57 |

| hatsaresilly | ok | 03:06 |
| xilus | Hello buntu irc. | 03:06 |

| almoxarife | odd, i dont use 'dos' its still around? | 03:12 |
| hatsaresilly | So any other ideas almoxarife? The purge didn't seem to do anything different. | 03:12 |
| SolarisB1y | im running 12.04 with default window manager setup lightdm unity | 03:12 |
| xilus | Yea I think MSDOS is kinda lame I'm so lost and confused right now | 03:12 |
| xilus | and I spent $300 on Windows I'm such an idiot | 03:13 |
| zoktar | almoxarife, hmm it might have just been silent bugreports, i was used to having to identify and select if my bug was an already existing one or if it was a new one on launchpad, but i guess that default changed at some point, you are now no longer taken to launchpad to fill out a proper report anymore by default?. | 03:13 |
| almoxarife | hatsaresilly: un-install compiz completely, via purge, run it without compiz, does issue disappear? | 03:13 |
| hatsaresilly | Ah, ok. One moment. | 03:13 |

| yenom | lxde is pretty light. | 04:06 |

| tizz | (wondering even) | 04:08 |
| yenom | WeThePeople: There is fluxbox | 04:08 |
| yenom | fluxbox is a little more complicated to configure, but it's got a very small footprint. Actually, fluxbox is a Window Manager so... | 04:10 |
| trism | tizz: yes but you need to make a .desktop file for it, create it in ~/.local/share/applications/ and you can drag and drop it to the launcher (look in /usr/share/applications/ for examples) | 04:12 |

| BigfootItIs | the f'ing fans on the power supply are stopped | 04:36 |

| BigfootItIs | ok think I found the problem, haha | 04:36 |
| mn2010 | Tm_T: yes, check releases from microsoft. They support the versions released BEFORE there purchase but are not updating the patform... | 04:37 |
| Ascavasaion | almoxarife: No camera in Skype | 04:37 |
| mn2010 | lollko, that would be a issue... | 04:37 |

| clj_newb_2345 | is there a way in ubuntu to tell the kerneep the cpu throttled? (i'm usng a laptop, and I'd prefer the CPU to remain slow enogh so that the fans don't loudly spin up) | 04:44 |
| Ascavasaion | almoxarife: So Skype will not work :( | 04:44 |
| luckyphuq | clj_newb_2345 you can throttle a process back using cpulimit | 04:44 |

| snowyrooftops | Ubuntu 12.04 always ran well for me... then I installed Chromium (browser, not the game) and it would cause the GUI to freeze occasionally. Bad Chromium! | 04:47 |

| Ascavasaion | Linux is amazing! Skype worked fine, I unplugged everything on computer to move it and when I plugged it back in Skype stopped working. WOW!!! *sarcasm* | 04:47 |
| patr|ck | heh | 04:48 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, You mean it wouldn't connect again? | 04:48 |
| Ascavasaion | snowyrooftops: No, Skype just does not detect the webcam "No devices found" in Skype's video options. | 04:49 |
| snowyrooftops | vinithra, Your nick reminds me of Sinatra, the Ruby library | 04:49 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, Do you have a built-in webcam or a USB webcam? | 04:50 |
| Ascavasaion | Snow-Man: USB... I have done the lsusb, it is there. | 04:50 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, Oh. Perhaps closing Skype (not just minimize to tray) and starting it up again? | 04:51 |
| Ascavasaion | Snow-Man: Done that... and shutdown already. Not working. | 04:51 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, if it worked once, it can work again | 04:52 |
| Ascavasaion | snowyrooftops: It can I am sure hehehe But not for me. | 04:52 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, uninstall, then re-install.... whatever config changed will get deleted and you can start off from scratch | 04:52 |
| Ascavasaion | I have realised that Linux and Windows are merging... They are both becoming "reinstall" operating systems. | 04:52 |
| BigC85 | register maxpass85 chrisoneall@gmail.com | 04:52 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, ....assuming Linux uninstalls aren't junk like Windows, leaving bits behind | 04:53 |
| Ascavasaion | snowyrooftops: :( Okay, will try. | 04:53 |
| dr_willis | or just delete the users skype configs..... | 04:53 |
| Ascavasaion | dr_willis: Too late, uninstalling. | 04:54 |
| snowyrooftops | dr_willis, Some apps store their settings in /var/something too | 04:54 |
| === alinmear is now known as alin|mobile | ||
| dr_willis | removeing a package vua apt will NOT tiuch the users configs if they are the issue. | 04:54 |
| snowyrooftops | dr_willis, assuming it isn't an admin-configured setting in /etc/something | 04:54 |
| dr_willis | then its a system config that may need p | 04:55 |
| snowyrooftops | dr_willis, Perhaps a file/folder named ".skype" or something similar in "~" ? | 04:55 |
| dr_willis | tbe apt purge option | 04:55 |
| Ascavasaion | Oh goodie, another 37Mb download. | 04:55 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, delete the ".Skype" directory in home. | 04:56 |
| dr_willis | i dont use skype. i perfer google voice | 04:56 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, BTW, the "." prefix means you can't see it in the GUI | 04:56 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, Command-line is the way to go :-) | 04:56 |
| Ascavasaion | snowyrooftops: Yes, I deleted .skype folder. | 04:56 |
| Ascavasaion | dr_willis: I would use it, but not everyone uses Google Video. | 04:57 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, What's your connection like, 37MB seems small for most folk.... I'm not most folk though :-( | 04:57 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, I have a Nokia N9 that supports Google Video but no Skype Video :-P | 04:57 |
| wubino | where can I read about making a indicator widget to be placed on the top along with email, networking, sound etc? | 04:57 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, Apparently, they foresaw the Microsoft acquisition of Skype :-D | 04:57 |
| wubino | for Unity on 12.04 | 04:57 |
| snowyrooftops | kracekumar__, Does your IRC client auto-connect? | 04:58 |
| trism | wubino: it is pretty easy if you just want an app indicator, http://developer.ubuntu.com/resources/technologies/application-indicators/ (see for example the 40 line python example) | 04:59 |
| dr_willis | wubino: the askubuntu.com site has a listing of indicator-applets. i recall some written in pyhon as a 'skeleton' apple for users to develop heir own applets with | 04:59 |
| almoxarife | Ascavasaion: heres a thought, install pidgin along with the skype plugin, install skype, use pidgin to control skype, pidgin does allow for setup of vid/voice | 05:00 |
| trism | wubino: full indicators are a bit more of a challenge, but if you just need the menu and the icon, app indicators will do | 05:00 |
| snowyrooftops | almoxarife, I wish IM apps wouldn't have the Skype dependency so I could have multiple Skype accounts on the computer | 05:00 |

| snowyrooftops | BigC85, And there's always a need for someone to try out some software to see if it breaks... testing it | 05:10 |
| dr_willis | i find beginneres are often very good at breaking things. | 05:10 |
| Ascavasaion | snowyrooftops: uninstalled skype, deleting .Skype, and reinstalling Skype did nothing. | 05:10 |
| dr_willis | Ascavasaion: other apps do see the webcam properly? | 05:11 |
| BigC85 | lol dr_ willis snowyrooftops how do I get involved w/ software testing is the a group I need to sign up for | 05:11 |
| Ascavasaion | dr_willis: No idea. Also have no idea how to test, because this cheese I hear about online dies. | 05:12 |
| dr_willis | dies how? run it from erminal, look for errors. vlc can also show/use the webcam | 05:12 |

| Ascavasaion | snowyrooftops: No. | 05:16 |
| dr_willis | one way to not get support.... | 05:16 |
| Ascavasaion | dr_willis: True, but the frustration is enough to make one pull your hair out. | 05:16 |
| dr_willis | makes me wonder if you havend had so e hard drive/file curruption. | 05:17 |
| Ascavasaion | Ever since Linux 12.X they seem to have lost the plot. | 05:17 |
| Ascavasaion | dr_willis: And I check that how? | 05:17 |
| mn2010 | ubuntu 12.x i hope you mean... Linux is Ambiguous. theres 1000's of versions(distro's ) of linux | 05:18 |
| mn2010 | id suggest reinstalling gstreamer myself... | 05:18 |
| blackshirt | mn2010, thats make non sense | 05:18 |
| Ascavasaion | mn2010: Yes, Ubuntu 12.x | 05:18 |
| dr_willis | fsck the filesystems from a live cd would be one way. perhaps reinstall that lib might fix if its curruptred. bu that error dosen seem to say its curruped | 05:18 |
| dr_willis | could also be some ram has came loose, you said it was working fine befor you moved the pc? | 05:19 |
| Ascavasaion | dr_willis: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1396227/ Is what pidgin from the command line gives me. | 05:20 |
| dr_willis | coule be that file som ehow got messed up. shouldent be too hard to reinstall its package | 05:21 |

| Sosumi | well, I've tried installing nvidia proprietary drivers on ubuntu 12.10 from the software sources | 05:23 |
| Sosumi | but after rebooting and logging in | 05:23 |
| Sosumi | unity basically doesn't load | 05:23 |
| Sosumi | what did I do wrong? | 05:23 |
| Sosumi | tried calling up unity, sudo unity, etc on the terminal but to no good | 05:24 |
| dr_willis | done just toss around 'sudo' like that. | 05:24 |
| dr_willis | dont.. ;) | 05:24 |
| dr_willis | most likely compiz does not like the 3d drivers, or does not see them correctly. | 05:25 |
| BigC85 | any ideas on what is gonna replace Natilus? | 05:25 |
| Ascavasaion | dr_willis: How do I locate the clutter lib? | 05:25 |
| dr_willis | start with some dacs/datas.. what is your video card? | 05:25 |
| WeThePeople | what are the hotkeys for the terminal | 05:25 |

| deadmund | What's a good torrent client that supports RSS feeds? | 05:27 |
| dr_willis | you tried running the nvidia-settings tool yet Sosumi ? | 05:27 |
| Sosumi | never heard of it | 05:27 |
| BigC85 | deadmund Seluge is what I use pretty good | 05:28 |
| dr_willis | its the main video config tool for nvidia drivers... try running it and see what it says | 05:28 |
| deadmund | You m | 05:28 |
| deadmund | Deluge? | 05:28 |
| BigC85 | deadmund Deluge | 05:28 |
| snowyrooftops | dr_willis, Sometimes you need to flash your credentials with a sudo to get things done :-) | 05:28 |
| BigC85 | yes sorry typo | 05:28 |
| deadmund | Bigc85, it has RSS support? | 05:29 |
| BigC85 | pretty sure like 97% | 05:29 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, Have a go at Linux Mint - it is based on Ubuntu | 05:29 |
| Ascavasaion | snowyrooftops: HOw would that fix this? | 05:29 |
| deadmund | BigC85, sounds good. I'll check it out | 05:29 |
| snowyrooftops | Ascavasaion, They include pretty much all the drivers | 05:29 |
| snowyrooftops | BigC85, If you have any project ideas, you'd find all ears here too | 05:30 |
| BigC85 | Linux Mint is pretty good aI second that | 05:30 |
| Sosumi | ok, I'm googling about the nvidia settings tool | 05:30 |
| Sosumi | thx for the heads up dr_willis | 05:30 |
| Ascavasaion | snowyrooftops: Drivers for what? The webcam worked until I dared to unplug the computer and move it elsewhere. | 05:30 |
| dr_willis | Sosumi: just open terminal and run 'nvidia-settings' | 05:30 |
| snowyrooftops | BigC85, ....and most ubuntu-derivative distros are based on 12.04 but Mint 14 is based on 12.10 | 05:30 |

| ericab | can someone give me an idea on how i can remove ALL text (via bash tools) AFTER a 4 digit number in a certain text string ?? | 05:31 |
| dr_willis | ericab: sounds like a job for sed, or awk, or perl | 05:31 |
| snowyrooftops | Is there a script or something that can run when the computer is idle? | 05:31 |
| BigC85 | cool tnx snowyrooftops | 05:32 |
| Ascavasaion | Aaaah, When I am unlashed on sudo apt-get I destroy systems more than what they already were... I use asterisk freely because I have no clue what I am doing. | 05:32 |
| dr_willis | snowyrooftops: to acomplish what exactly? | 05:32 |
| ericab | dr_willis yeah i was thinking such; but im not sure how to specify that its anything AFTER a 4 digit number. how do i specify this ? | 05:32 |
| ericab | dr_willis, the length of the string WILL vary | 05:32 |
| dr_willis | ericab: i always end up googling for 'sed examples' or 'awk examples' | 05:32 |
| dr_willis | with regular expressions the legenth whoudent matter. ;) | 05:33 |
| ericab | yeah | 05:33 |
| snowyrooftops | dr_willis, Lost the trail of thought on that accomplish thing | 05:33 |
| snowyrooftops | dr_willis, do you mean project ideas? | 05:34 |
| snowyrooftops | dr_willis, I'm looking at an idea I can take up and develop | 05:34 |
| Ascavasaion | I especially like using asterisk with sudo apt-get remove ... that way I know it is irreparable. | 05:34 |
| snowyrooftops | dr_willis, Something like a UI for configuration of some /etc/something setting | 05:34 |
| dr_willis | snowyrooftops: you asked abou doing somthing while idle.. somthing like what? | 05:34 |
| RJ45-Q | I've tried Google but keep getting un-clear answers, I want Cover Art over DAAP on Rhythmbox in Ubuntu 10.04, how do I get this working?, Cover Art over DAAP is only currently working for MP3s with 'tagged in' covers. | 05:35 |
| BigC85 | yes I'm aware of this fact about linux mint I like Mint myself but prefer Ubunt even though it uses considerable more resources' | 05:35 |
| snowyrooftops | dr_willis, Ah, that... I was hoping to write an app to share CPU processing for Linux, but I'm not sure of how to tell if the computer is idle | 05:35 |
| snowyrooftops | dr_willis, Perhaps to accomplish video encoding.... but keeping it open at this stage | 05:36 |
| snowyrooftops | dr_willis, It would be useful to have a desktop running idle to take up a video encoding job so that the laptop doesn't run down its battery or get superhot | 05:36 |
| dr_willis | i do belive theres a distributed encodeing feature in some of the encoders allready ;) | 05:36 |
| snowyrooftops | dr_willis, Really? Which ones? I've only used Freemake and Handbrake so far. | 05:36 |
| * Ascavasaion vows never to use Ubuntu help forums... because nothing there ever actually works. | 05:36 | |

| tarvid | Lilo hasn't been around for awhile | 05:41 |
| snowyrooftops | BigC85, I tried Linux Mint Mate 14 and it's got the ability to edit the location bar (like it was in older Ubuntu and in Fedora) | 05:42 |

| Jbuss | I am trying to install apps on an non internet laptop via one with internet, what is the easiest way? I have heard about APTonCD, UCK or remastersys | 05:44 |
| bazhang | Jbuss, the latter two are for remastering disks | 05:45 |
| Jbuss | this is an old laptop that only has a cd drive and one usb port | 05:45 |
| Jbuss | Ah I see | 05:45 |
| snowyrooftops | Jbuss, You could copy packages to the apt cache directory | 05:45 |
| bazhang | Jbuss, aptoncd would be the more likely in this case | 05:45 |
| Jbuss | Ok, i heard on the forum that it can be a pain | 05:46 |
| BigC85 | and ctrl L worked thank I'll try and remember that if your not using nautlius what file manager do you use? | 05:46 |
| snowyrooftops | Jbuss, /var/cache/apt/archives/ | 05:46 |
| Jbuss | Another thing i installed Ubuntu 5 on the old laptop cause the new version wouldnot install but ver 5 wouldnt boot on VirtualBox | 05:47 |

| bazhang | snowyrooftops, it's not acceptable standard for support in #ubuntu | 05:49 |
| Jbuss | The issue is some Ubuntu Versions are too big for a CD | 05:50 |
| snowyrooftops | Jbuss, Try using the Ubuntu Server distribution... it's minimalistic | 05:50 |

| snowyrooftops | Jbuss, You can then install only the packages you need after getting the base system up and running | 05:50 |

| RJ45-Q | Jbuss: nope | 05:51 |
| RJ45-Q | :P | 05:51 |
| snowyrooftops | Jbuss, Tone generator? You mean like you enter the frequency and duration and it generates the tone? Or something to emulate a POTS network? | 05:51 |
| Jbuss | the first one | 05:51 |
| dr_willis_bathro | or color tone? | 05:52 |
| Jbuss | aka frequency generator | 05:52 |

| RJ45-Q | hey, you remember the sounds old Modems used-to make?, why did they do that? | 05:53 |

| Dr_Willis | or is the #### on one looooong line? can there be m ore then one #### per line? | 06:11 |

| relipse | yeah i can access it via 192.168.*.* | 07:13 |
| Dr_Willis | sounds like therouter is nnot firwarding. you could rry its DMZ settings as a test | 07:15 |
| relipse | ok how do I do that? | 07:15 |
| relipse | do I need to restart the router? | 07:15 |
| Dr_Willis | check the routers configs | 07:15 |
| JmanGuy | Ozimag: idk the differences between MAc OSX and Ubuntu but i get this: jman012guy 21585 0.0 0.0 2434892 488 s000 R+ 11:15PM 0:00.00 grep chrome | 07:15 |
| relipse | is it possible ubuntu has a firewall? | 07:15 |
| Dr_Willis | dmz the servers ip as a test. but thats not real secure | 07:16 |
| Dr_Willis | !firewall | 07:16 |
| ubot93 | Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw (GNOME) and Guarddog (KDE from Lucid onwards) also exist. | 07:16 |
| Ozimag | @JmanGuy: probably because you don't have chrome running a the moment of running the command | 07:16 |
| Dr_Willis | iptables is a firewall config command also | 07:16 |
| zuizui | :) | 07:17 |
| Ozimag | @JmanGuy: it's important that you watch any flash video or game so the flashplugin is loaded | 07:17 |

| Ozimag | @JmanGuy: you can try justin.tv or youtube.com | 07:17 |
| Wug | would anyone have a solution to the problem of using chrome on ubuntu? | 07:18 |
| Wug | It borks when I use it from a restricted account | 07:18 |
| Ozimag | @JmanGuy: can you try "ps aux | grep flash" | 07:18 |
| Wug | googling has indicated that it's apparmor's fault | 07:18 |
| Kartagis | Wug: define bork | 07:18 |
| Dr_Willis | Wug: what versions | 07:18 |
| Wug | Kartagis: it isn't allowed to fork | 07:19 |
| Wug | anyway, its apparmors fault. this is the latest lts release of ubuntu. I dont remember what version of chrome, but it was probably whichever version was current 3 months ago. | 07:19 |
| JmanGuy | Ozimag: flash gives roughly same result, but doing | grep Chrome (uppercase) gives a large output | 07:19 |
| JmanGuy | Ozimag: lemme pastebin it | 07:20 |
| Dr_Willis | what restricted accountn | 07:20 |
| Ozimag | @JmanGuy: thank you | 07:20 |
| Wug | the guest account has this problem, others may as well | 07:20 |
| Wug | I did a little fiddling with apparmor to try to get it working but was unsuccessful. | 07:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Wug: its worked fine for me last i tried.. but im not home so cant try it rightnow | 07:21 |
| Dr_Willis | look for a bug report on it? | 07:21 |
| relipse2 | hey | 07:21 |
| relipse2 | Dr_Willis: i unplugged and plugged back in the router but it still "isn't forwarding" | 07:22 |
| Metrics | brb | 07:22 |
| Wug | I did and found others with the same problem. it's caused by the sandboxing, which does weird security things that apparmor doesn't like | 07:22 |
| relipse2 | i checked the settings and it doesn't work | 07:22 |
| relipse2 | i mean i checked the settings and it still says it is forwarding on port 80 | 07:22 |
| JmanGuy | Ozimag: http://pastebin.com/VY3tjiZc not sure how helpful that'll be | 07:22 |

| media-centre | can anyone help me create a custom launcher | 10:00 |
| Guest56618 | media-center, custom launcher for ? xbmc ? | 10:01 |
| media-centre | ubuntu | 10:01 |
| media-centre | like a desktop shortcut | 10:02 |
| kpm | what is a launcher? | 10:02 |
| kpm | the shortcut on the bar? | 10:02 |
| media-centre | no on the desktop | 10:02 |
| Froodle | Partner repositories? | 10:02 |
| media-centre | its anther way of saying a shortcut to a program | 10:03 |
| media-centre | kpm | 10:03 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: what is the launcher to do? | 10:03 |
| media-centre | so does anone know how to make one | 10:03 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: try waiting more than 60 seconds | 10:04 |
| media-centre | open a command line | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: why not just press CTRL+ALT+T ? | 10:04 |
| media-centre | i want to shut down the pc without going to the corner | 10:04 |
| media-centre | id rather click one button | 10:04 |
| minimec | media-centre: easiest way is to start the software 'alacarte' and create one there. The launcher file will be saved in .local/share/applications, if you want to move it on the desktop. | 10:04 |
| media-centre | ok | 10:05 |
| Guest56618 | media-centre: http://askubuntu.com/questions/142159/desktop-shortcut-to-create-a-new-desktop-shortcut-doesnt-do-anything | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: you can copy one of the items from ~/.config/autostart then edit the text to run whatever you want. You will need to use: gksudo shutdown -h now as the command ran. | 10:05 |
| Froodle | Thanks for the help, ActionParsnip. Let's hope this takes care of the problem. | 10:06 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: edit each line as you want, you can even customise the icon if you want | 10:06 |
| ActionParsnip | Froodle: you will need to close all browsers, then rerun to load the new plugin | 10:07 |
| media-centre | ok thanx guys i thik ive got it now | 10:07 |
| Tweikable | tor failed to bind one of the listening ports ?? | 10:08 |

| ActionParsnip | Tweikable: there is tor-browser you can use | 10:09 |
| Tweikable | currently running ubuntu 12.10 with gnome | 10:09 |
| ikonia | is this really needed because you are in a coffee shop ? | 10:09 |
| Tweikable | ABSOLUTLY!! sorry for caps | 10:09 |
| Tweikable | :) | 10:09 |
| ActionParsnip | ikonia: its not going to protect him/her from folks on the lan | 10:09 |
| Tweikable | i just want to make sure when im sniffing around that on my end is as hidden as possible from other people either doing the same. or from poeple seeing my real address on wifi | 10:10 |
| ikonia | it's worthless | 10:10 |
| Tweikable | really? | 10:11 |
| brontosaurusrex | radio-station management/scheduling software? any suggestions? | 10:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Tweikable: tor won't do anything for you on the LAN | 10:11 |
| ikonia | your real address ???? what do you think is going to happen | 10:11 |
| Tweikable | no wifi | 10:11 |
| ikonia | Tweikable: what are you trying to protect from ? | 10:11 |
| Tweikable | not lan | 10:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Tweikable: its still a local area network. a LAN | 10:11 |
| Tweikable | poeple get my physical address | 10:11 |
| ikonia | why ? | 10:11 |
| Tweikable | why not | 10:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Tweikable: the transmission media doesn't define the network | 10:11 |
| ikonia | what is the problem with them having your mac address or tempoaray IP address ? | 10:12 |
| Tweikable | thats what i want | 10:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Tweikable: the MAC is stored in the router's routing table so that you can get data | 10:12 |
| ikonia | why ? | 10:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Tweikable: do you even know how networking works..? | 10:12 |
| Tweikable | lol | 10:12 |
| ikonia | what is the problem with someone having your mac address ? | 10:12 |
| Tweikable | i dont have a problem with network info going in and out, | 10:12 |
| ikonia | that's not what I asked | 10:12 |
| ikonia | what is the problem with someone having your mac address ? | 10:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Tweikable: the router will store your hostname, mac and IP for routing. People on the same network will see you. You cannot hide the details from the others on the same LAN | 10:13 |
| abdo | hey | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Tweikable: you can configure a firewall to block traffic but you will still reply to ping and so forth | 10:13 |
| Froodle | Nope! No dice. "The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed." | 10:14 |
| ikonia | you can block imcp if you want | 10:14 |
| ikonia | then you won't respond to ping | 10:14 |
| Tweikable | so would having a proxy work better | 10:14 |
| ikonia | but I don't see what value that will get you | 10:14 |
| ikonia | Tweikable: no, you will still be ON the network | 10:14 |
| Tweikable | connect with proxy to the wifi network | 10:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Tweikable: that will just route your http traffic via that proxy, you wuill still be visible on the LAN | 10:14 |
| Tweikable | oh | 10:14 |
| ikonia | Tweikable: what is your actual problem ? | 10:14 |
| ikonia | why are you concerned with someone having your mac address and dhcp ip on a temporary network | 10:14 |
| abdo | I've some problems install LAMP server | 10:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Tweikable: go research networking, you clearly know very little and your paranoia is more than likely due to ignorance | 10:15 |
| ikonia | abdo: what's up ? | 10:15 |
| Tweikable | alright | 10:15 |

| Tweikable | gotcha, | 10:17 |
| jasper22 | is there any way to ensure that packages will be installed from special source ? | 10:17 |
| almoxarife | jasper22: d/l the deb from ??? chose the site, install the deb, you have used a special source | 10:18 |
| almoxarife | choose, | 10:19 |
| minimec | jasper22: /etc/apt/sources.list ans the /etc/apt/sources.list.d folder | 10:19 |
| jasper22 | almoxarife: I added a file with deb: .... to sources.list.d/ folder | 10:19 |
| jasper22 | can I be sure that the newest packages downloaded from link in this file | 10:20 |

| ws | how long can 'mkfs.ext2 -c -c /dev/sdd1' take? (on a 320gb hdd via usb2) | 10:25 |
| ws | it's been 19 hours now, I don't know if it's fine... | 10:25 |
| gustav__ | That's too long. | 10:26 |
| gustav__ | Try again. | 10:26 |
| ws | hmm, just ^C it? | 10:26 |
| llutz | ws: -c -c takes time but 19hrs for 320gig.... | 10:26 |
| gustav__ | Jepp. | 10:26 |
| Hyperbyte | ^C it? | 10:26 |
| llutz | usb1? ;) | 10:26 |
| Hyperbyte | How will trying again help? | 10:26 |
| Hyperbyte | It'll just restart the exact same process. | 10:27 |
| ws | lspci |grep i usb only shows USB2 entries | 10:27 |
| ws | s/grep i/grep -i/ | 10:27 |
| Hyperbyte | ws, I'd start by doing a quick benchmark on the harddisk and looking at smartctl for the disk. | 10:28 |
| gustav__ | Hyperbyte: The disk might be broken so it get caught in something. Don't ask me, I didn't program that. | 10:28 |
| llutz | ws: does the drive still show activity? | 10:28 |
| Hyperbyte | gustav__, yes, so you restart the process, and the disk is still broken and again gets caught in the same bad sector. If you don't know what you're talking about, then don't. | 10:28 |
| texta | Hey guys, I'm having a bit of an issue with my multimedia keys and banshee right now. | 10:29 |
| ws | yup, I tried 'mkfs.ext2 -c' now (single -c) | 10:29 |
| Hyperbyte | ws, if you still have the mkfs command running, you can see with things like iotop if it's still actually writing data. | 10:29 |
| gustav__ | Hyperbyte: Sometimes it works anyway. I have a broken harddrive in one of my laptops. Hardware isn't so deterministic. | 10:29 |
| texta | I can control my volume, but not any of the other keys. | 10:29 |
| gustav__ | Hyperbyte: Guess I should be talking then. | 10:29 |
| texta | They work in xev, so I know it's not that. | 10:29 |
| ws | I had a problem with this drive yesterday -- it had NTFS, I tried to unpack a .tar.gz with a very large number of files | 10:30 |
| Hyperbyte | gustav__, at the very least it would make sense to see -what- the mkfs command is actually doing before jumping to conclusions. iotop, top.. etc... | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | texta: go into the keyboard settings and double click the volume up and hit the key | 10:30 |
| texta | ActionParsnip: The volume keys work just fine. | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | texta: just not in one app? | 10:30 |
| texta | The other keys work too when I attempt to bind them (they appear in the shortcut area) | 10:30 |
| ws | it ended up corrupting the drive -- Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 13: $MFTMirr does not match $MFT (record 0). | 10:30 |
| texta | I haven't tried any other multimedia programs. | 10:30 |
| texta | (or have any installed) | 10:31 |

| texta | The volume controls work, (the applet probably picks them up) | 10:34 |
| ActionParsnip | texta: does the slider move when you hit the keys | 10:35 |
| texta | but the other keys do not work (although they are detected with xev and can be binded in the shortcut control panel) | 10:35 |
| texta | The multimedia keys? No. | 10:35 |

| sanav | minimec: (WW) Falling back to old probe method for vesa | 11:00 |
| minimec | sanav: Looks like you are running a Nvidia card with the opensource 'nouveau' driver. Are you sure, that this is the best solution for your card. | 11:00 |

| sanav | minimec: but i don't install any prosperity driver for NVIDIA | 11:01 |
| minimec | sanav: That is an argument and your choice. The question is, if that is a good solution in combination with your GPU... | 11:01 |

| Braden` | Hello | 11:04 |
| Braden` | Does anyone know how to access the manpage for std::cout? | 11:04 |
| dr_willis | !msn | 11:04 |
| ubot93 | The Empathy Instant Messenger is installed by default and supports MSN, XMPP (Jabber, GTalk and variants), AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ, YIM, IRC and others. See also !Kopete and !pidgin | 11:04 |
| minimec | sanav: Even though I don't have any nvidia GPU anymore, I think installing the 'nvidia-current' package would install the nvidia closed source driver. Maybe check that with some nvidia users here. | 11:04 |
| dr_willis | !man | 11:04 |
| ubot93 | 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/ | 11:04 |
| media-centre | but only if i enable it in terminal | 11:04 |
| media-centre | and i have to type a password first | 11:05 |
| dr_willis | theres a package for the function man pages i thought. | 11:05 |
| media-centre | is their anyway of getting rid of that | 11:05 |
| media-centre | like fakeroot or somthing | 11:05 |
| media-centre | or cchangeing the permissions | 11:05 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: you can make the shutdown command not need a password | 11:06 |
| media-centre | no i cant | 11:06 |
| sanav | minimec: i don't think , installing NVIDIA driver is a solution | 11:06 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: you can | 11:06 |
| media-centre | i need sudo in their | 11:06 |
| diahane1 | hello guys, take a look at http://bitfungus.org/ , if you can help is totally open source! sorry for my bad english :P | 11:06 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: yes but you can make the command need sudo, but not a password | 11:06 |
| media-centre | unlees you mean get rid of 'sudo' and change the owner to root | 11:06 |
| dr_willis | i recall suiding shutdown ages ago | 11:07 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: no, you can make certain commands not need a password in sudo | 11:07 |
| dr_willis | for a htpc i made | 11:07 |
| media-centre | ok then whats the commannd line | 11:07 |
| media-centre | fakeroot or somthing | 11:07 |
| Braden` | Does anyone know how to access the manpage for std::cout? | 11:08 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: run: sudo visudo | 11:08 |
| media-centre | ok | 11:08 |
| minimec | sanav: Ok. your choice. Then try to boot that machine, go to a console 'sudo service gdm stop', and then startx. Like that you can check, if the xserver can start correctly. | 11:08 |
| MonkeyDust | media-centre here's wahat you do: sudo visudo, then add the line [username] ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/shutdown | 11:09 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: add the line: %sudo ALL = NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown | 11:09 |
| ActionParsnip | MonkeyDust: shutdown is /sbin/shutdown :) | 11:09 |
| MonkeyDust | dang sbin!! | 11:09 |
| minimec | sanav: You might have some kind of broken unity desktop. YOu can logout the session again with ctrl+alt+t + gnome-session-quit | 11:09 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: then the users which can use sudo, can shutdown the PC without a password entry | 11:09 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: you'll still need sudo to be added to the comman | 11:10 |

| ActionParsnip | juniour: there is an archive for it | 11:14 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: you will need to make it start at login and it is ONLY usable via the web UI | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: still want it? | 11:15 |
| juniour | ActionParsnip k | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: ok | 11:15 |
| juniour | ActionParsnip yesterday i was downloding a game it was 14gb i change the destination folder it gives error | 11:16 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: http://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/01/install-utorrent-in-ubuntu-11-10-oneiric-ocelot/ | 11:17 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: you may find that the link needs updating, the utorrent site will have a later download but the usage method is the same | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: you do realize there are LOTS of torrent clients for Ubuntu in the repos | 11:19 |
| juniour | yaa | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: have you tried a few | 11:19 |
| media-centre | ok ive added the following line %sudo ALL = NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown | 11:19 |
| juniour | no | 11:19 |
| media-centre | whats next | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: why not? | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | media-centre: reboot and test once you log back in | 11:19 |
| llutz | ActionParsnip: reboot? | 11:20 |
| ActionParsnip | llutz: sure why not | 11:20 |
| media-centre | leave in the sudo on the launcher | 11:20 |
| juniour | ActionParsnip how can i change the default download directory of transmission to other | 11:20 |
| llutz | ActionParsnip: better ask "why" | 11:20 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: no idea, I don't use it. I imagine its in the config files of the app | 11:21 |
| media-centre | ok then see you in a bit | 11:21 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: or you can use one of the apps from the repos with graphical configs | 11:21 |
| ActionParsnip | llutz: just makes life easier and you know it'll get applied and so forth | 11:21 |
| llutz | ActionParsnip: this isn't windows | 11:22 |

| media-centre | save it their | 11:24 |

| ActionParsnip | media-centre: ok, reboot and test | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | llutz: I know | 11:25 |
| juniour | Tex_Nick thanks :) | 11:26 |
| Tex_Nick | juniour : np | 11:26 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: is that your only issue with transmission? | 11:26 |
| juniour | ActionParsnip nope but i have made the dstination folder in other partation i f i have to start transmission before i have to mount that partation that the problem | 11:27 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: have the partition mount at boot | 11:28 |
| juniour | ActionParsnip i have two parataion | 11:28 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: any torrent app will have the same issue. If the destination isn't mounted then it won't save correctly | 11:28 |
| juniour | one in which ubuntu is installed | 11:28 |
| juniour | and other is for files | 11:29 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: its an issue for ANY application you can name | 11:29 |
| Braden` | iceroot: So there is no C++ Documentation package in Ubuntu? | 11:29 |
| llutz | juniour: mount you partition using /etc/fstab, it will be mounted before any user-program starts | 11:29 |
| juniour | yeaa | 11:30 |
| media-centre | keroot | 11:30 |
| media-centre | didnt work | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: if you ran libreoffice and wantedto save to the other partition, it would also need to be mounted | 11:30 |
| media-centre | whats the deal with fakeroot | 11:30 |
| media-centre | that could work couldnt it | 11:30 |
| juniour | yeaaa | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: so its not a shortcoming of transmission | 11:30 |
| juniour | right | 11:30 |
| ActionParsnip | juniour: so looking for another torrent client to overcome the issue of a partition not being mounted makes no sense at all | 11:31 |

| ActionParsnip | Evdb: i'd ask in #bash | 12:31 |
| Evdb | Hmm okay | 12:31 |
| anunakki | you could also | 12:31 |
| anunakki | use perl | 12:31 |
| Tex_Nick | i'm trying to find a link to the ubottu encyclopedia ... most of the ubottu links seem to offline ... anyone know why | 12:31 |
| anunakki | or even echo and sed? | 12:31 |
| anunakki | it sounds like a job for regexp imo, i'd go with perl Evdb | 12:32 |
| anunakki | could possibly be solved with a one liner | 12:32 |
| Evdb | Thanks I'll go there | 12:32 |

| vesh1 | hi I'm trying to get ubuntu 12.10 to play wmv and wma study videos. I've installed ubuntu-restricked-extras, w64codecs, mplayer, smplayer but to no avail. I get sound but no video. Have been trying for 2 weeks now | 13:58 |
| === alinmear is now known as alin|mobile | ||
| JMS32 | mgedmin: mgedmin it works. Thank you! | 13:58 |
| OerHeks | ashleyludlow, if the name is in use, the new chatter gets a Guest<number> nick | 13:59 |
| mgedmin | vesh1, I think wma files are audio-only (Windows Media Audio); I'd expect mplayer filename.wmv to work | 13:59 |

| AndroidChat | I just installed quantal but can't see anything. It freezes before booting. | 14:02 |
| Walther | Is there any news on when this will be fixed? "Installing the driver from the official Ubuntu repositories ("nvidia-experimental-310") removes bumblebee-nvidia because the package depends on nvidia-current. To avoid this, you need to get the Bumblebee source and repackage the deb with the nvidia-experimental-310 dependency instead of nvidia-current." | 14:03 |

| devsys | I let ubuntu setup the partitions and it's proving to be a bit of a pita | 14:34 |

| devsys | minimec: the /boot is 100% utilized | 14:35 |
| riqdiiz | use the lates repo | 14:35 |
| xetius | devsys, in which case, my method probably wont help yo | 14:35 |
| ashleyludlow | <androidchat> install 12.04, then run the update manager, it will say new ver aval, install | 14:35 |
| minimec | devsys: ok. So apt should be able to remove this linux-image packages... I see no reason why not... | 14:35 |
| devsys | xetius minimec: so in /boo abi config initrd system.map vmcoreinfo vmlinuz all safe to delete (providing I'm not using that kernel version)? | 14:35 |
| silv3r_m00n | is there some way, that the system switches off its power, and next time it is rebooted it just resumes as if it just frozed off earlier | 14:36 |
| xetius | devsys, yes. Providing you don't want to ever use it again | 14:36 |
| devsys | I'm just going to do one kernel version then see if apt-get can clean out the others | 14:36 |
| AndroidChat | Ok I'm upgrading grub. Also I installed xinit and now it returned no monitors! | 14:36 |
| xetius | or you could move the file to a partition you do have more space on | 14:36 |
| devsys | xetius: that may be smarter | 14:36 |

| mynameisdeleted | I'm trying to install 32-bit ubuntu on a laptop with only a cd drive | 15:06 |
| mohamed_amine | <MonkeyDust> yes, the 3d is the default, but in 12.10 there is no unity2d | 15:07 |

| minimec | mohamed_amine: Well you would want to enable the xorg edgers ppa for software acceleration in 12.04 (llvmpipe). But in fact, you don't want that, because the experience is not good. It would work quiet well with new intel i5/7 series, but then you don't need llvmpipe. I have an old amd/ati x1250 GPU/athlon X2 5000, and results are bad... | 15:13 |

| texos | correct mgedmin I've been following these instructions http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1566078&page=3 | 15:57 |
| wN | strict9: the logical volumes are created from the on-disk metadata at the header of the disk. if you overwrite that partition with a partition table, or just delete the partition, it should disappear | 15:57 |
| wN | you could also flip to a tty an dd out that partition header | 15:58 |
| texos | So far I did get it to maintain the date time settings, and all the icons I set up on the launcher! So that works from log out to log in, but the background is the only thing not saving at the momen mgedmin | 15:58 |
| Bartzy|work | I just don't understand why there is not configuration file for gnome-keyring... | 15:58 |

| thoonai | where's the additional drivers button gone in 12.10?b | 16:05 |
| mgedmin | I suspect one way would be to create /etc/skel/.local/share/autostart/my-wallpaper.desktop that runs 'gsettings set something something filename.jpg' | 16:05 |
| AndroidChat | I downloaded an lubuntu 12.10 image and put it on a usb memory drive (using the tool from pendrive linux) but it won't start. It just shows some legend about syslinux. | 16:05 |
| texos | yeah i'm reading up on there as well mgedmin | 16:05 |
| Sietsem | Dash -> Software Sources -> Additional drivers | 16:05 |
| Sietsem | No idea why it's al the way there | 16:05 |
| mgedmin | creating a desktop file is easiest with gnome-session-preferences: add the gsettings command to it, then copy from your home ~/.local/share/autostart to /etc/skel | 16:06 |
| mgedmin | and finding the right gsettings key is easiest with gsettings list-recursively|grep background | 16:06 |
| mgedmin | I see org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri | 16:06 |
| mgedmin | ah, and it wants a file:/// url | 16:06 |
| thoonai | Sietsem: must I use Unity? is there a way in in gnome shell?\ | 16:06 |
| mgedmin | and this works for gnome-shell sessions; I'm not sure about unity | 16:06 |
| mgedmin | thoonai, apt-get install gnome-shell then select a GNOME session in your login screen | 16:06 |
| mgedmin | (there's a little Ubuntu circle that, when clicked on, gives you a session choice) | 16:07 |
| OerHeks | !nounity | thoonai | 16:07 |
| ubottu | thoonai: 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 | 16:07 |
| Sietsem | thoonai, no idea, sorry :( | 16:07 |
| thoonai | mgedmin: mgedmin OerHeks I know. thanks. I just was desperately searching the additional drivers thing in gnome-shell | 16:08 |
| thoonai | ok thanks will restart | 16:09 |

| OerHeks | |Anthony|, a PUA is a Possible unwanted packer > http://www.clamav.net/lang/en/faq/pua/ (i think it is fase positiv) >> "A runtime packer can be used to reduce the size of executable files without the need for an external unpacker.

| ActionParsnip | dsa: how do you mean 'distro upgrade'? | 17:20 |
| ActionParsnip | dsa: if deps cannot be met for packages, then the packages can be kept back | 17:21 |
| aMERICA | ActionParsnip: just reinstalled nvidia-current, and back to the same issue | 17:21 |
| dsa | ..or none are and its ok to upgrade all whithout touching the ubuntu version | 17:21 |
| Boreeas | Huh, tells me that libgtk2.0-0 is already installed. Tried to reinstall it, but the program still tells me that it can't find it | 17:22 |
| delinquentme | ActionParsnip, so " . " should be fine right? if im in the dir I want to search | 17:22 |
| theadmin | dsa: Packages get kept back when they require installation of new packages. Use "apt-get dist-upgrade" for a smart dependency resolution algorythm with updates. | 17:22 |
| dsa | ActionParsnip, i just want to safely upgrade all without worrying about updating the ubuntu version | 17:23 |
| theadmin | dsa: "dist-upgrade" won't change your Ubuntu version. Only the Update Manager, or "do-release-upgrade" can do this | 17:24 |
| zykotick9 | !dist-upgrade | dsa | 17:24 |
| ubottu | dsa: A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. | 17:24 |
| gotwig_ | meeh, is ubuntu+1 the only channel for ubuntu 13.04 support :(? | 17:25 |

| theadmin | dsa: Similar, and it's also plugin-based so you don't get stuff you don't want | 17:51 |
| SuperNull | okay thanks theadmin, the big problem was i wrote a little bash script for our newbs to use for vlans.. but the latest versions of ubuntu just kept resetting it versus the old one of leaving what ever we changed. | 17:52 |
| rev1 | i did already bazhang. Chill. | 17:52 |
| rev1 | bazhang just stating a simple opinion, not trying to complain thx | 17:52 |

| dustinspringman | hey folks... I have a SATA drive from a Windows machine that has a lot of data on it, but it won't "mount" in windows or Ubuntu automatically.. How can I mount the disk (is detected in disk utility) without losing data? | 17:53 |

| dsa | theadmin, zentyal also is plugin-based but by default installs several stuff i don't really need =/ i didn't really enjoyed i mean it's great don't get me wrong but it's just too much for my needs right now | 17:56 |
| theadmin | dsa: Well, the only thing Ajenti has by default is a thing to install plugins. | 17:56 |
| === Guest10316 is now known as Adeel | ||

| ubottu | mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 17:57 |

| theadmin | dsa: Well and installing the plugins you need | 17:58 |
| === acidflash_ is now known as acidflash | ||

| MrGeneral | Hello, so, I upgraded ubuntu, and I went chrome to start typing, even sellecting text, the color is just white. I mean I dont even see the cursor when I'm typing. Any idea? | 18:03 |
| theadmin | MrGeneral: You'd need to reinstall Chrome, it's not really an officially supported thing here. It might have been messed up during the upgrade, cause it's a third-party project | 18:04 |
| tonsofpcs | thanks theadmin . Changing Prompt=lts to Prompt=normal in the file worked (I don't like seding files blind :) | 18:05 |
| theadmin | tonsofpcs: Sure, use vim or whatever, just sometimes you need to do stuff in a non-interactive manner | 18:06 |

| bulletrulz | well when i try to play games like smoking guns or open arena it turns my res down to 800x600 but how do i keep it on 1024x600 | 18:16 |
| ActionParsnip | duckduckgo also has the bang: !ubottu | 18:16 |
| ActionParsnip | bulletrulz: is that after you exit the game? | 18:16 |
| MonkeyDust | really? | 18:16 |
| bulletrulz | ActionParsnip, no when i enter the game how to keep it at my native res | 18:16 |
| ActionParsnip | MonkeyDust: eee pc.... | 18:17 |
| ActionParsnip | bulletrulz: you may have to set it in the game | 18:17 |
| a_b0y | what is the shortcut for the task manager? | 18:18 |

| bulletrulz | ActionParsnip, i have tried that but there is no 1024x600 option :/ | 18:18 |

| ActionParsnip | a_b0y: system monitor is in dash | 18:18 |
| MonkeyDust | ActionParsnip my "really" remark was about ubottu in duckduckgo | 18:19 |
| ActionParsnip | a_b0y: the command it runs is: gnome-system-monitor | 18:19 |
| ActionParsnip | MonkeyDust: oh yeah, for sure. You can suggest them too, there are thousands of bangs | 18:19 |
| a_b0y | i thought there was a shortcut like crtl+alt+del or something | 18:19 |

| shomon_ | hi, I've got a computer with 10.04, and it's quite old. can I upgrade to 11.04? | 18:21 |
| zykotick9 | ActionParsnip: honestly i use !i and !g too much :( | 18:21 |
| shomon_ | instead of the newest thing? which would freak out the users... | 18:21 |
| ActionParsnip | zykotick9: https://duckduckgo.com/bang.html look at them all :) | 18:21 |
| theadmin | shomon_: No, only to 10.10 or 12.04 | 18:21 |
| MonkeyDust | shomon_ you can to 12.04 | 18:21 |
| bazhang | shomon_, 11.10 is still supported | 18:21 |
| shomon_ | 10.10... hmm | 18:21 |
| ActionParsnip | shomon_: you can upgrade to 12.04 in one jump (LTS to LTS) | 18:22 |
| shomon_ | yeah but I wouldn't want to | 18:22 |
| theadmin | shomon_: Well, 10.10 is dead so you can go to 12.04 | 18:22 |
| bazhang | theadmin, you mean 11.10 | 18:22 |
| shomon_ | they are not geeks and it's taken them ages to put stuff in menus | 18:22 |
| brianb__ | hey guys, I get a popup about evolution-calendar-factory crashing 3 or 4 times a day on my 12.10 desktop. I don't use any calendars, how can I stop it from running? | 18:22 |
| ActionParsnip | shomon_: 12.04 is LTS so supported til April 2017 | 18:22 |
| shomon_ | 11.10 maybe... I just don't want to make it so different.. also being such a slow computer... | 18:22 |
| theadmin | bazhang: No, uh, I think you can only upgrade to the next release of the branch, not just some random one, so from 10.04 it's 10.10 or 12.04 | 18:22 |
| ActionParsnip | shomon_: you can use XFCE, it looks and smells like the classic Gnome desktop | 18:23 |
| theadmin | shomon_: Try Xubuntu | 18:23 |
| theadmin | ActionParsnip: ;) | 18:23 |
| bazhang | theadmin, there eolupgrades | 18:23 |
| theadmin | bazhang: Hm, don't know much about those I guess... Bah, they should just go rolling release for the non-LTS branch [/offtopic] | 18:23 |
| shomon_ | so you don't recommend upgrading to 10.10 or 11.10? | 18:23 |
| MonkeyDust | shomon_ correct | 18:23 |
| shomon_ | basically I just want python2.7 libraries to work | 18:23 |
| bazhang | shomon_, 10.10 is end of life | 18:24 |
| ActionParsnip | zykotick9: could try: !gisafeoff search to :) | 18:24 |

| === jsparks is now known as nonkn4mer | ||

| bobweaver | shomon_, what is you version that you are on now ? | 18:24 |
| shomon_ | 10-04 | 18:25 |
| ActionParsnip | shomon_: you'd need to upgrade to 11.04, then to 11.10 | 18:25 |
| shomon_ | not my computer.. I'm installing an erp so I don't want to mess with it too much today | 18:25 |
| shomon_ | I will recommend upgrading all these computers thuogh | 18:25 |
| MonkeyDust | shomon_ fastest, cleaniest, easiest would be a fresh install | 18:25 |
| Walex | shomon_: ideally you would do a reinstall to 12.04 so you get the multiarch transition done. | 18:25 |
| bobweaver | shomon_, there is a couple of ways ti do that . onw would be to run do-release-upgrade other would be to change the code name in all the repos | 18:25 |
| shomon_ | how do I upgrade to 11.04? maybe that has python 2.7 anyway | 18:26 |
| Walex | shomon_: in theory you could upgrade 10.04 to 11.04 and then to 12.04, but it may be a bit risky. | 18:26 |
| shomon_ | thanks bobweaver | 18:26 |
| Walex | shomon_: also consider backports, or backporting Python 2.7 yourself. | 18:26 |

| bobweaver | dr_willi-, yup and it works great | 18:30 |
| dr_willi- | 'netflix desktop' ;) i dont have it crashing here when i move around work spaces. | 18:30 |

| Notimik | hm if i want the uncomment of #GRUB_TERMINAL in /etc/default/grub to be permanent between kernel updates how to I fix that? | 18:32 |
| brianb__ | think I solved my own problem: apt-get remove gnome-contacts | 18:32 |
| bobweaver | that is cool dr_willi- yeah it just stops the movie when switching workspaces for me wanted to debug it but it is not a big deal | 18:32 |
| bobweaver | but at any rate aren't you glad that netflix is now working on Ubuntu . Many many hours can now be wasted faster then before ! =) | 18:36 |
| koaxiAl | nabend | 18:38 |
| bobweaver | Think about it dr_willi- 6 months ago no netflix no steam and no unity3d(gaming) no stable armel image(nexus7) now look at this w()()t W(())t more proprietary software in software center = happy bob | 18:39 |

| Draco_ | I dunno, I did some crazy stuff trying to follow a tutorial | 18:46 |
| ActionParsnip | SparkyProjects: yes | 18:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Draco_: thats a recipe for hell | 18:46 |
| Katbuntu | hey | 18:47 |
| zykotick9 | Draco_: mixing distro's repos gives you a franken install, that no one wants to touch. | 18:47 |
| Draco_ | Well the packages they included in the tutorial were outdated, so I tried to find something that worked | 18:47 |
| SparkyProjects | ActionParsnip: yes, chrome still runs | 18:47 |
| MonkeyDust | Draco_ it's the combination that doenst work | 18:47 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, I am wondering if that is repo or if that is just a package what is dpkg-query -l | grep squeeze PASTEBIN plz | 18:47 |
| Scunizi | Draco_: if you do that sort of stuff, make sure your /home is on a separate drive or partition so when you have to reinstall to fix stuff you won't loose all your data.. playing with outside repos, weird tutorials etc means you *will* have to reinstall to fix stuff at some time. | 18:48 |
| ActionParsnip | SparkyProjects: that's why, kill the proceses off | 18:48 |
| SparkyProjects | how ? | 18:48 |
| ActionParsnip | SparkyProjects: if you pastenin the output of the command, I can advise | 18:48 |
| Draco_ | bobweaver, http://pastebin.com/p4QtSVe2 | 18:49 |
| Draco_ | Scunizi, I was a noob (and still am) and didn't know the difference really | 18:49 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, see us as Ubuntu Developers take alot packages from them and then alter to run better and faster or whatever then add to ubuntu repo | 18:49 |
| bobweaver | kinda ^^ | 18:49 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, rm and purge libssl-dev=0.9.8o-4squeeze13 | 18:50 |
| bobweaver | then re-install I am guessing here that you did not add repo but installed a package with dpkg ? | 18:50 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, then try to re-install it. What is your end goal ? like what are you doing ? | 18:51 |
| bobweaver | not debian one ^^^ | 18:51 |
| SparkyProjects | ActionParsnip: as i said, im new to this, but http://pastebin.com/urgNuUxD | 18:52 |
| Draco_ | bobweaver, I installed a package yeah.. And you mean remove with apt-get? I still get an error if that is what you mean. And my end goal was to compile a project, and it worked but well other things got messed up I see now | 18:52 |
| nonkn4mer | Scunizi: " playing with outside repos, weird tutorials etc means you | 18:53 |
| nonkn4mer | *will* have to reinstall to fix stuff at some time. | 18:53 |
| nonkn4mer | ^^ agreed | 18:53 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, do you still have deb of libssl-dev ? if so -P is to purge with dpkg, you can also just remove and purge with synaptic | 18:53 |
| Draco_ | bobweaver, I'll check and try it | 18:55 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, also can you show me tutorial that you where using ? | 18:55 |

| Draco_ | bobweaver, yeah I was on this step http://www.trinitycore.info/How-to:Linux#Installing_OpenSSL_.28aka_libSSL.29 | 18:56 |
| bekks | Draco_: Why dont you just use the libssl-dev from the Ubuntu repos? | 18:56 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, yeah that is not a good tutorial just a heads up | 18:56 |
| bobweaver | rremove and purge all the debs that you wget'ed and just install with apt-get | 18:57 |
| bobweaver | also that might work if wrote like in a way that dpkg was running to install all three | 18:57 |

| bobweaver | Draco_, yeah because it is installed and the canadate can not install due to jimble jamble libs | 19:06 |
| SparkyProjects | ActionParsnip: That worked this time, many thanks for the help :) | 19:07 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, there is something called a debian/comntrol file in this file we list all packages that are need for program to either build and install if it was calling for some lib that was debian only then there could be troubles. or if version is not correct in Ubuntu repos but debian repo has it . see what I am saying ? | 19:08 |
| bobweaver | debian/control * | 19:08 |
| ActionParsnip | SparkyProjects: no worries dude | 19:09 |
| Draco_ | bobweaver, I see.. And is it just a list or does it do something? :D | 19:09 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, it makes sure that there installed | 19:09 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, enter into the terminal apt-cache show gedit | awk '/Depends:/,/Recommends:/' | 19:11 |
| bobweaver | this will show you this line for the package called gedit. See if these programs are not installed then the package manager installs them | 19:11 |
| Mukhthar_Ahmed | ubuntu 12.04 VNC connection is dark background | 19:12 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, when you see (>=0.2) that means version must be greater then or equal to the number in the () | 19:12 |
| Draco_ | bobweaver, that I understand.. But is there a fast way to check if I have all of those packages? | 19:13 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, no there is but not worth the time. It is best to remove the deb that you have DL PURGE it that is. and then just install the ones that are in the ubuntu repo that way it(package) knows that thouse things are in repo | 19:14 |
| dr_willi- | Mukhthar_Ahmed: usibng what vnc server? | 19:14 |
| Seven_Six_Two | does anyone know why my nm-applet would stop showing a network list? It connect(ed)s to my default network, but I can't change it by hand. | 19:15 |
| Mukhthar_Ahmed | dr_willi-: default with ubuntu 12.04 package | 19:15 |
| bobweaver | Like cd <where ever deb is> && sudo dpkg -P libssl-dev_0.9.8o-4squeeze1_i386.deb | 19:15 |
| SolarisBoy | Seven_Six_Two: it may be wpa_supplicant or ipv6 on wireless network which causes hat | 19:15 |
| dr_willi- | Mukhthar_Ahmed: ive had numerous issues with Vino and Vinigre in the past. thoats the defaults ones. | 19:15 |
| SolarisBoy | had the same issue | 19:15 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, or just use synaptic package manager | 19:16 |
| Mukhthar_Ahmed | what is the solution | 19:16 |
| Seven_Six_Two | SolarisBoy, do you remember where you found the fix? I can't find an error in dmesg which would suggest a place to start | 19:16 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, you can search all *LOCAL* packages installed with synaptic | 19:16 |
| HondUSA | Whats up? | 19:16 |
| dr_willi- | Mukhthar_Ahmed: i tend to use dedicated vncservers like vnc4server or tightvnc | 19:17 |
| asdf12 | hello | 19:17 |
| === asdf12 is now known as NewUbuntuUser | ||
| dr_willi- | Mukhthar_Ahmed: but i never want to share the 'current visible desktop' which is what vino and x11vnc does | 19:17 |
| Seven_Six_Two | I set ipv6 to ignore for this connection | 19:17 |
| Seven_Six_Two | dr_willi-, have you tried Xnest if over a lan? | 19:18 |
| Mukhthar_Ahmed | dr_willi- okay will try vncserver | 19:18 |
| Draco_ | bobweaver, I'm not able to remove or purge libssl-dev.. I tried sudo dpkg -P libssl-dev, but it doesn't work | 19:18 |
| SolarisBoy | have you dont that previously or now? if now you may need to re-login and re-check if previously - check and see if it's the wpa_supplicant thing - i saw a thread where they mentioned that it was causing some sort of hang | 19:18 |
| NewUbuntuUser | so hey, I'm about to become a new user here (hard drive dying, need to put in new one and can't find my windows 7 cd) can anyone help me with some questions before I take the dive? | 19:18 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, or just use synaptic package manager | 19:19 |
| Seven_Six_Two | NewUbuntuUser, sure, give it | 19:19 |
| Mukhthar_Ahmed | dr_willi- but the defaults should atleast work | 19:19 |
| bobweaver | Draco_, you got gui ? | 19:19 |
| SolarisBoy | Draco_: dpkg -l '*libssl*' would list the proper name if it's installed | 19:19 |
| SolarisBoy | when you get the name purge it using that which was returned and marked as ii | 19:19 |
| NewUbuntuUser | Ok, first up, will I need to dl a copy of chrome or otherweb browser before hand or does one come on ubuntu? | 19:20 |
| bobweaver | SolarisBoy, the package is from debian http://pastebin.com/J2scgGGX | 19:20 |
| bobweaver | NewUbuntuUser, you can sign into chrome and synch up everything | 19:20 |
| SolarisBoy | cool so why wont it remove is there an error? | 19:20 |
| Seven_Six_Two | NewUbuntuUser, you'll get a bunch of software with default install, including firefox. You will install chrome from package manager once you've installed. | 19:20 |
| NewUbuntuUser | Cool | 19:20 |
| === suku is now known as suku-away | ||
| dr_willi- | Mukhthar_Ahmed: the defaults have definatly had issues for a great many people in the past. | 19:21 |
| Draco_ | bobweaver, yeah. Solarisboy: I've got the proper name (I think) it just gives an error | 19:21 |
| SolarisBoy | Draco_: whats the error? | 19:21 |
| dr_willi- | Mukhthar_Ahmed: a check of askubuntu.com may show some work arounds or other fixs | 19:21 |
| Network | #nagios | 19:21 |
| Draco_ | It says "libcurl4-openssl-dev requires libssl-dev" | 19:21 |
| NewUbuntuUser | Second, is it immediately compatible with development packages like eclipse and the microsoft developer engine for asp.net, or will I need a virtual program to do those? | 19:21 |
| Mukhthar_Ahmed | dr_willi- yup i agree thanks. | 19:21 |
| dr_willi- | Seven_Six_Two: on a home lan, i tend to use ssh x forwarding if needed. ;) i only use vnc to sort of have 'isolated' desktops. | 19:21 |
| Seven_Six_Two | NewUbuntuUser, technically, chromium is the package available. You would have to configure an additional repository (easy) to get "chrome" | 19:22 |
| SolarisBoy | Draco_: can you do 'apt-cache depends libssl-dev'? | 19:22 |
| Network | : NewUbuntuUser, technically, chromium is the package available. You would have to configure an additional repository (easy) to get "chrome" | 19:22 |

| Seven_Six_Two | dr_willi-, I did xforwarding too, but Xnest is much faster over trusted network | 19:22 |
| SolarisBoy | is that libcurl4-openssl-dev listed on return? Draco_ | 19:22 |
| SolarisBoy | if so and you dont need that for anything else its a dev package can you try to remove that package? | 19:23 |
| dr_willi- | Seven_Six_Two: theres the ssh -Y option i belive to make it faster on trusted networks.. but really Ive not found the normal forward ing slow at all. ;) | 19:23 |
| Arney | Ubuntu Software Center is acting really strange, I re installed, but nothing. http://i45.tinypic.com/2py5ft3.jpg | 19:23 |

| Seven_Six_Two | dr_willi-, oh, that's the same thing, except that it's not an option in lightdm like it was in gdm. Xnest is the client to do XDMCP connections. | 19:26 |
| dr_willi- | Arney: last time i had issues with software center, i used the cli apt tools to do a update and it fixed the issues. | 19:26 |

| bobweaver | prospero1, this is plain of attack if upgrade and re-installing will not work I made package of b43 for g-friends computer because that was also not working for here (its just older firmwarre) but if all else fails we will just install that package but 1st we will try Ubuntu repos | 20:27 |
| prospero1 | great thx for helping.. but I did this a couple times with diff methods, all same result. hope works now. fyi this is macbook pro early 2011 | 20:29 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, what do you know so is g-friends ;) | 20:30 |
| prospero1 | hehe :) question though: what to do with other distros? | 20:31 |
| ryan_turner | Any help for me? I feel like Im doing something wrong. | 20:31 |
| ryan_turner | I mean, I feel like Im not approaching this the right way * | 20:31 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, well we wait what is output of dmesg |grep b43 | 20:31 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, what other distros ? | 20:31 |
| prospero1 | well backtrack for example | 20:32 |
| bobweaver | ryan_turner, what are you approaching ? sorry I must have missed something like I am trying to do X and I have tried X and X is happening | 20:33 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, we can PM each other for that | 20:33 |
| === crash is now known as Guest76940 | ||
| ryan_turner | bobweaver, I have an NVidia GTX550 with two monitors. They're working well. I have an HD4000 built into my Z77 mobo. I want to attach a 3rd monitor to it, but the HD4000 isnt showing up in nvidia-settings for me to configure it. | 20:33 |
| ryan_turner | bobweaver, also, the intel graphics entry is missing under lspci | 20:34 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, backtrack and all other distros are not supported on this channel but I am sure we can talk about that when the time comes. | 20:34 |
| === dzup is now known as epileptic-rabbit | ||

| ryan_turner | Ok, thanks for trying though :) | 20:36 |

| eternalspline | anyone free to help with some port forwarding? | 20:46 |
| seednode | Well, I haven't been able to make it work with my router... | 20:46 |
| eternalspline | that's not heartening lol | 20:47 |
| prospero1 | update & upgrade done btw bobweaver | 20:47 |
| eternalspline | Trying to correctly forward port 51413 for use with transmission from my desktop, to a laptop that is bridging a wireless connection to my dlink router | 20:47 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, great do you have to reboot was a new kernel installed ? | 20:47 |
| eternalspline | err trying to forward port 51413 for use by transmission from my desktop, to a laptop that is bridging a wireless connection to my dlink router | 20:48 |
| eternalspline | somehow the text was cut off :^c | 20:48 |
| prospero1 | no i dont think so | 20:48 |
| dr_willis | eternalspline: so its desktop -> wifi -> laptop -> wired to router ? | 20:48 |
| eternalspline | desktop -> switch -> laptop -> wifi -> router | 20:48 |
| === roger_ is now known as dodger | ||
| dr_willis | desktop -> lan with laptop -> wireless to router. | 20:49 |
| dr_willis | ;) | 20:49 |
| eternalspline | tried forwarding router port 51413 to laptop and then laptop bridges to desktop via lan | 20:49 |
| === marinero_ is now known as marinerojoven | ||
| bobweaver | prospero1, might as well and update and upgrade also sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade let us know when upgrade is done | 20:49 |
| eternalspline | Currently using the laptop's bridge right now to talk to you :D | 20:49 |
| bobweaver | er | 20:49 |
| MonkeyDust | sounds like !ics internet sharing to me | 20:49 |
| bobweaver | sudo apt-get -y --purge remove b43-fwcutter && sudo apt-get -y --purge remove firmware-b43-installer && sudo apt-get -y install b43-fwcutter && sudo apt-get -y install firmware-b43-installer && sudo modprobe b43 | 20:49 |
| dr_willis | MonkeyDust: yep. ;) | 20:49 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, ^^^^ | 20:50 |
| MonkeyDust | !ics | eternalspline read this | 20:50 |
| ubottu | eternalspline read this: If you want to share the internet connection of your Ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing | 20:50 |
| === dodger is now known as rmarcus | ||
| eternalspline | MonkeyDust - I am currently successfully sharing internet through my ubuntu machine on the network. I should give more information | 20:51 |
| dsa | anyway to pause or capture text displayed when ubuntu is shutting down or starting up? | 20:51 |
| eternalspline | just installed a new ubuntu partition on the desktop - also have windows 7 running | 20:51 |
| eternalspline | ports seem to forward to utorrent on windows 7 just fine | 20:51 |
| m_ | msg neberu | 20:51 |
| eternalspline | which makes me think it's ufw on the new ubuntu install | 20:51 |
| dsa | way too fast to read anything | 20:51 |
| prospero1 | update & upgrade again?? | 20:51 |
| eternalspline | I've read the ufw man page and it seems to me that "sudo ufw default allow" should just open up everything, ya? | 20:53 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, did it give same error again after purge and install of firmware and fwcutter ? | 20:53 |
| tmmunq | well, so would ufw disable... | 20:53 |
| wdilli01 | Hi folks, I want to remove the ability for a machine to be restarted so somehow removing that capability from the unity menu, and somehow mapping init 6 to init 0, shutdown would still be allowed of course, anyone know where to start? | 20:53 |
| DigitalYeti | hey guys I'm trying to add some unallocated space from a windows partition to my ubuntu partition on my machine. I'm following a guide that said to boot into the live cd and use gparted to resize the partition | 20:53 |
| prospero1 | well didn't try again, will in a sec | 20:54 |
| mickster04 | wdilli01: back up your user data, re-install :p | 20:54 |
| DigitalYeti | I tried that and I've got the unallocated space now, but it's to the left of my ubuntu partition and I can't figure out how to add it or move my ubuntu partition to the left of it so I can use it? | 20:54 |
| eternalspline | actually for more information - uTorrent on the windows box works perfectly and is on port 32459. I have tried switching transmission's port to 32459 and it returns that the port is closed | 20:54 |
| DigitalYeti | anyone have a clue how to do this? | 20:54 |
| wdilli01 | mickster04: how does that help me? | 20:55 |
| eternalspline | I don't know what effect an operating system change would have on port forwarding - I would guess no effect. | 20:55 |
| gordonjcp | DigitalYeti: you can't, really | 20:55 |
| eternalspline | unless the new OS's firewall was blocking the port | 20:55 |
| DigitalYeti | gordonjcp: you can't add unallocated space to a linux partition? | 20:55 |
| mickster04 | wdilli01: it saves time | 20:55 |
| prospero1 | bobweaver in the meantime, how do I add a repository? i need https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/OpenvpnSoftwareRepos | 20:55 |
| gordonjcp | DigitalYeti: you can't move the unallocated space from one end of the disk to the other | 20:56 |
| eternalspline | Digital yeti, please tell me you're manipulating an unmounted partition | 20:56 |
| wdilli01 | mickster04: hows that? I have a vm configured exactly how i want it, i just want to disable its ability to be "restarted" instead leaving only the power off ability | 20:56 |
| DigitalYeti | eternalspline: I believe so, I am booted from a livecd | 20:56 |
| tmmunq | that can be tricky, not only do you need to resize partition, you have to resize fs as well. that can be dangerous if you mess up | 20:56 |
| LuckyBastard | hello , can anyone give me a hand with a wifi problem? | 20:56 |
| DigitalYeti | well, I'm considering just deleting all partitions and starting from scratch to be honest | 20:56 |
| eternalspline | yeah... in order to "slide" a partition you have to do a bitwise transfer, which can be dangerous | 20:56 |
| DigitalYeti | ok | 20:56 |
| DigitalYeti | I guess I'll jsut format and reinstall | 20:56 |
| alexxxa | hello! Trying to install wifi (again). cant run "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" | 20:57 |
| DigitalYeti | thanks! | 20:57 |

| bobweaver | prospero1, that is not supported here (kinda) | 20:57 |
| prospero1 | well i need openvpn, why not | 20:57 |
| alexxxa | LuckyBastard: last time, on 12.04 somebody helped me to solve it. Now I don't remember how...... | 20:57 |

| gordonjcp | yhusha: that doesn't sound sane, what exactly are you trying to do? | 21:08 |

| eternalspline | ok so now I have This setup: Ubuntu with ufw off on lan with laptop. laptop is set into DMZ of router. laptop routes internet through its firewall to desktop | 21:08 |
| eternalspline | still can't figure out how to forward port 32459 | 21:08 |
| bobweaver | LuckyBastard, you have 2 firmwares installed so remove theone you do not need sudo apt-get --purge remove firmware-b43legacy-installer | 21:08 |
| gordonjcp | eternalspline: that doesn't sound sane either | 21:08 |
| LuckyBastard | eternal foward it in your router? or your OS? | 21:08 |
| eternalspline | nope, not sane at all | 21:08 |
| bobweaver | LuckyBastard, then sudo modprobe b43 do you have wireless ? | 21:08 |
| eternalspline | really don't want to use dmz | 21:08 |

| eternalspline | trying to forward port 32459 to the program transmission so that I can upload and download files through it | 21:09 |
| eternalspline | the desktop recieves its connection through lan with a laptop which gets it from a wireless router | 21:09 |

| eternalspline | 32459 is the port that utorrent uses on the windows partition of the desktop, it seems to work fine without any firewall disabling | 21:10 |
| tmmunq | you have the router routing for the laptop and the laptop routing for the desktop? | 21:10 |
| gordonjcp | dsa: dmesg | 21:10 |
| eternalspline | yep | 21:10 |
| gordonjcp | bobweaver: I will when I can track down what's causing its errant behaviour | 21:10 |
| gordonjcp | bobweaver: it's fundamentally broken anyway | 21:10 |
| eternalspline | mostly because I am too cheap to go out and buy a wireless adapter for the desktop | 21:10 |
| eternalspline | and I have this spare laptop that I sometimes use as a server | 21:11 |
| gordonjcp | bobweaver: when I remove the globalmenu nonsense, thunderbird ends up with no menus at all | 21:11 |
| tmmunq | did your wifi router really not give you any lan ports? | 21:11 |
| dr_willis | eternalspline: found some great ones for $18 on amazon. usb dongles/devices ;) | 21:11 |
| eternalspline | lol not the point | 21:11 |
| eternalspline | point is the setup works on windows and I don't see how port forwarding is too OS dependent | 21:11 |
| tmmunq | so this is an experiment in bridging? | 21:11 |
| bobweaver | gordonjcp, this is the cve you talk about ? http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2012-5838 | 21:11 |

| dr_willis | eternalspline: what torrent client on windows? | 21:12 |
| eternalspline | utorrent | 21:12 |
| tmmunq | is ubuntu the laptop or the desktop? | 21:12 |
| eternalspline | ubuntu is on both | 21:12 |

| eternalspline | the desktop dual boots ubuntu and windows. the laptop runs ubuntu | 21:13 |
| dr_willis | I belive utorrnt has a upnp feature to auto set up port forwarding.. err.. if ubuntu is on both.. when does windows figure int oit? | 21:13 |

| eternalspline | lol I would try that | 21:13 |
| tmmunq | there is? | 21:13 |
| gordonjcp | bobweaver: no idea, all I know is that when I start Thunderbird it almost immediately uses all RAM and swap it can get its hands on, and hammers seven bloody bells out of my IMAP seriver | 21:13 |

| gordonjcp | bobweaver: I've given up on Thunderbird | 21:14 |
| dr_willis | utorrent has a web only interface on linux.. but its been out for linux for some time now | 21:14 |
| yhusha | how to undo that | 21:14 |
| eternalspline | utorrent on windows and transmission on my ubuntu install are now set to the same 32459 | 21:14 |

| LuckyBastard | BobWeaver http://pastebin.com/LwcBne0U | 21:14 |
| bobweaver | thanks | 21:14 |
| tmmunq | youre trying to do this with bridging? do you have to have forwarding on for that? | 21:14 |
| yhusha | but then it stays in the directory if the directory folder is deleted does that undo the whole action | 21:15 |
| bekks | yhusha: When what stays in which directory? | 21:15 |
| eternalspline | connection is successfully bridged. have the laptop allowing all connections on 32459 | 21:15 |
| bobweaver | LuckyBastard, ok try this sudo apt-get --purge remove firmware-b43-installer && sudo apt-get -y install firmware-b43-installer && sudo modprobe b43 | 21:15 |
| bekks | yhusha: What are you trying to achieve, actually? | 21:15 |
| eternalspline | i'm typing this from the desktop - so a connection is up | 21:15 |
| llaskin | so I am trying to boot from a ISO I burned to a DVD, and I don't even get to the "selection" screen. I see the litle guy at the bottom of the screen, and then I get blinky cursor, and thats it | 21:15 |

| DrManhattan | I have a problem - nvidia-current doesnt give me any kind of text readout when booting, even with "text" being the only mode entry in /etc/default/grub | 21:16 |
| yhusha | improve boot performance and gen responsiveness through all operations | 21:16 |
| gordonjcp | llaskin: don't use obsolete spinny plastic | 21:16 |
| dr_willis | llaskin: at the little guy - hit space. and try the nomodeset option | 21:16 |
| gordonjcp | llaskin: use a USB stick | 21:16 |
| llaskin | usb stick does the same thing | 21:16 |
| dr_willis | !nomodeset | 21:16 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 21:16 |
| bekks | yhusha: Then mounting something to /home/whatever/ramdisk is totally nonsense, since it has absolutely no effect. | 21:16 |
| eternalspline | other ports are fine as well... minecraft seems to work dandy running through this setup | 21:17 |
| LuckyBastard | BobWeaver You sir are a gentleman and a scholar. The Wireless interface came back up and connected. You have balls the size of planets to be able to process all this people at the same time | 21:17 |
| dr_willis | eternalspline: could be the torrent client has a auto setup port forwaredng feature thats needeed. | 21:17 |
| alexxxa | help me, please. Brother wants to kick me out of his room, therefore I need this wifi stick enabled, seriously XD | 21:17 |
| llaskin | dr_willis ty, i did the space bar and it seems to have worked | 21:17 |
| yhusha | okay thats the feel of it thats why the new task is to undo those actions.... got this much from intuition | 21:17 |
| yhusha | so how to delete/undo that | 21:18 |
| eternalspline | client is set to use UPnP or NAT-PMP port forwarding from my router. I have a feeling this is the issue | 21:18 |
| dr_willis | yhusha: umount the ramdisk, then delete the dir.. its gone. | 21:18 |
| eternalspline | as I don't know if firestarter/ufw does UPnP or NAT-PMP | 21:18 |
| bekks | yhusha: "sudo umount /home/whatever/ramdisk" | 21:18 |

| NopeChuckTesta69 | Okay, so I installed an oxygen cursor theme, and I updated the changes and everything in compiz --replace and now I can't use CTRL+A, please help? | 21:25 |
| yhusha | dr_willis did some reading on noatime and nobtime and some other things and it would be realy nice to speed up boot and responsiveness | 21:26 |
| dr_willis | yhusha: I got like 10 sec bootups to the lightdm login screen,,, ;) | 21:27 |

| Zeak | French users here? | 21:27 |
| yhusha | hmm | 21:27 |
| Sokel | NopeChuckTesta69: reset the configuration to defaults. That's about it. | 21:27 |
| yhusha | so add what to the fstab | 21:27 |
| tmmunq | cool. i will be putting ssh in my next system, i just hope it will play well with the encryption | 21:27 |
| dr_willis | yhusha: ive no idea what you want in the fstab or what you are trying to do.. that line puts my /tmp/ in ram. i have 8gb of ram | 21:28 |
| NopeChuckTesta69 | Sokel, so you're saying I can't use a custom cursor and still have ctrl a work? | 21:28 |
| dr_willis | yhusha: i doubt if that affects boot time much. ;) | 21:28 |
| Sokel | NopeChuckTesta69: You read that completely wrong. | 21:28 |
| NopeChuckTesta69 | Oh hahahahaha my bad, so how do I change it exactly? The same way? Sokel | 21:28 |
| Sokel | NopeChuckTesta69: I'm SAYING you need to reset the compiz/environment configuration for your desktop if you expect it to work again. | 21:28 |
| alexxxxa | installing xubuntu-restricted tools didnt help | 21:28 |
| yhusha | well this does the same thing which is already added to fstab here; Move /tmp to RAM | 21:29 |
| yhusha | tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults,noexec,nosuid 0 0 | 21:29 |
| yhusha | not that last part | 21:29 |

| thequestionasker | I have a question | 21:42 |
| UbuntuRox | How do you use Adobe Flash on it? bekks | 21:42 |
| bekks | UbuntuRox: On what? | 21:42 |
| thequestionasker | Should I use 12.04 12.10 or 13.04? | 21:42 |
| yhusha | is it safe to sudo apt-get remove nautilus with pcmanfm as replacement default ubuntu 12.04 | 21:42 |
| thequestionasker | yhusha, yes, it is | 21:43 |
| UbuntuRox | On a .swf | 21:43 |
| UbuntuRox | My goal is to run swf files without using a webbrowser, bekks | 21:43 |
| bekks | UbuntuRox: You just visit thje website where that game is hosted on. | 21:43 |
| UbuntuRox | bekks yeah I know, but I also know you can run them offline without going to the website, I'm trying to find something that will do this | 21:43 |
| bekks | UbuntuRox: I never heard of running .swf offline. | 21:44 |
| thequestionasker | Should I use 12.04 12.10 or 13.04? | 21:44 |
| UbuntuRox | I used to do it all the time on windows | 21:44 |
| bekks | thequestionasker: 12.04, when you have to ask it :) | 21:44 |
| thequestionasker | whattt | 21:44 |
| dsa | i'm getting this fail when shutting down *running nssldap-update-ignoreusers... /etc/rc6.d/K20libnss-ldap: 22: /etc/rc6.d/K20libnss-ldap: nssldap-update-ignoreusers: not found [fail] ... so i know this is probably happening after removing zentyal and all i could that was installed with it but i'm not finding the way to remove this any ideas? | 21:45 |
| thequestionasker | why not 12.10?!?!?! | 21:45 |
| Hans_Zero | Hi... I installed some | 21:45 |
| bekks | thequestionasker: Because 12.04 is supported for 3 years longer. | 21:45 |
| thequestionasker | whattt the FUCKKK | 21:46 |
| thequestionasker | really? | 21:46 |
| thequestionasker | older and longer supported? | 21:46 |
| bekks | thequestionasker: Please behave. And yes. 12.04 has Long Term Support, 12.10 doesnt. | 21:46 |
| dsa | if libnss-ldap isnt installed anymore :s | 21:46 |

| thequestionasker | SOrry because of my language | 21:46 |
| bekks | !LTS | thequestionasker | 21:46 |
| ubottu | thequestionasker: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; with the exception of 12.04 (Precise Pangolin), which will be supported for 5 years on the desktop. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04) | 21:46 |
| thequestionasker | but here at home it is the normal language | 21:46 |

I can run the thing without a gui just fine... now I just want to switch back to my working gui... how can I achieve that? startx is starting the wrong gui... | 21:46 |
| bekks | thequestionasker: My apologies then. | 21:47 |
| UbuntuRox | thequestionmaker, every ubuntu that ends in .04 is going to have long term support, hence the name LTS, and the ubuntu will always have the first number the year it was released, for example ubuntu 10.04 was released April, of 2010 | 21:47 |
| thequestionasker | bekks, hehe no problem | 21:47 |
| bekks | UbuntuRox: Thats nonsense. | 21:47 |
| thequestionasker | Ububegin, ubuntu 13.04 also ??? | 21:47 |
| UbuntuRox | No it's not, bekks. | 21:47 |
| bekks | UbuntuRox: 11.04 wasnt LTS, and 13.04 wont be LTS, too. | 21:47 |
| dsa | is it safe to delete /etc/rc6.d/ | 21:47 |
| blno | thequestionasker: ubuntu has a new version every 6 months. Every 4 versions there is a version called Long Term Support (LTS). It's supported longer than the others to allow users to upgrade only every few years if they prefer. | 21:47 |
| thequestionasker | ok | 21:47 |
| bekks | UbuntuRox: ... | 21:47 |
| tensorpudding | april releases of even years are LTS | 21:48 |
| UbuntuRox | bekks then Ubuntu is lying to me. | 21:48 |
| tensorpudding | 6.06, 8.04, 10.04, 12.04 | 21:48 |
| UbuntuRox | Oh nevermind, I understand what you're saying now, my bad haha | 21:48 |
| thequestionasker | well UBUNTU is great | 21:48 |
| Hans_Zero | can someone help me please? | 21:48 |
| bekks | tensorpudding: And what about 9.04, 11.04 and 13.04? | 21:48 |
| UbuntuRox | Hans_Zero what do ya need? | 21:48 |
| thequestionasker | Some say Unity is VERY STUPID...but it is WRONG!!! I can confirm!!!!!!!! UNITY IS GREAT! | 21:48 |
| tensorpudding | they're just normal releases | 21:48 |
| tensorpudding | bekks: ^ | 21:48 |

I can run the thing without a gui just fine... now I just want to switch back to my working gui... how can I achieve that? startx is starting the wrong gui... | 21:48 |
| bekks | tensorpudding: Then dont tell people that every .04 release is a LTS. | 21:49 |
| tensorpudding | that's what UbuntuRox said, I was correcting that person. | 21:49 |
| Hans_Zero | UbuntuRox I need to switch back to Unity from cli after starting some different gui | 21:49 |
| thequestionasker | well then i will wait for ubuntu 13.04 LTS | 21:49 |

| ubottu | thequestionasker: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 21:49 |

| bekks | UbuntuRox: By uninstalling them using the package manager. | 21:53 |
| dr_willis | Kuwanger: pointer themes have been flakey for ages.. Not sure why its been so goofy. askubuntu.com may have some info on it. | 21:53 |
| UbuntuRox | bekks, okay so how do I do that? | 21:54 |
| Kuwanger | dr_willis: Thanks. I'll look there. | 21:54 |
| dr_willis | UbuntuRox: fire up the package manager tools.. search, click uninstall. ;) | 21:54 |
| bekks | UbuntuRox: By starting the package manager, selecting the package you want to uninstall and uninstall it. | 21:54 |
| UbuntuRox | I can't find it in the ubuntu sofware center, and the synaptic package manager shows me all of the files haha | 21:54 |

| prospero1 | so i just tried again installing the b43 .deb but got this http://paste.ubuntu.com/1397876/ | 22:08 |
| Hans_Zero | jrib I dunno if my system is on autologin or it freezes before login.. | 22:08 |
| jrib | Hans_Zero: you can edit your ~/.dmrc | 22:09 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, why are you building from .deb ? | 22:09 |
| Hans_Zero | jrib thanks | 22:09 |
| FLeiXiuS | What's the best way to remove packages from an install in preseeds? | 22:09 |
| jrib | Hans_Zero: alternatively, disable auto-login | 22:09 |
| Hans_Zero | jrib thats the file I was searching for | 22:09 |
| nonkn4mer | Hans_Zero: try the replace command. metacity --replace or icewm --replace with whatever other WM you have installed | 22:09 |
| prospero1 | because why not? | 22:09 |
| prospero1 | other options didnt work earlier | 22:10 |

| bobweaver | prospero1, ok well then lets see a apt-cache policy b43-fwcutter | 22:10 |
| Hans_Zero | there should be an award system to irc channels | 22:10 |

| UbuntuRox | what does autoremove do? | 22:14 |
| prospero1 | here http://paste.ubuntu.com/1397889/ bobweaver | 22:14 |
| bobweaver | UbuntuRox, it removes all packages that are installed but not needed anymore (kinda) man apt | 22:15 |
| bvier | I'm trying access a hard drive through an IDE/SATA adapter using ubuntu 12.04. Anybody know where to get a driver to run the adapter? | 22:15 |
| iomicio | hello | 22:15 |
| dr_willis | bvier: what kind of adaptor? | 22:15 |
| for_if | Why is 'deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/stable non-free' repository gives me error with distrib parse when I do apt-get update? | 22:15 |
| for_if | I get it there => http://deb.opera.com/ | 22:16 |
| bekks | for_if: Because you omitted the distribution. | 22:16 |
| bvier | dr_willis: x-media 2.0 usb IDE/SATA adapter | 22:16 |
| llutz | for_if: "deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/ stable non-free" missing space in front o stable | 22:16 |
| iomicio | HI everybody. I am trying to move a postgresql cluster on a new drive but I cannot locate the PGDATA to update the path. ANyone can help? | 22:17 |
| === erry_ is now known as erry | ||
| for_if | bekks: deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/stable non-free precise is right? | 22:17 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, plz download this and install with dpkg -i https://launchpad.net/~josephjamesmills/+archive/beta/+files/bobsdriver_0.0.1-1_all.deb | 22:17 |
| bekks | for_if: No. | 22:17 |
| bekks | for_if: deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/ stable non-free | 22:17 |
| dr_willis | bvier: for most of those. I just plug them in. no drivers needed.. You may need to mount the hard drive partions by hand if the auto mount tools are confused | 22:17 |
| bekks | for_if: Just like on the page you linked. | 22:17 |
| for_if | bekks: I need a just a space after opera/ ? | 22:18 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, then un-install b43-fwcutter and firmware-b43-installer then re-install b43-fwcutter then reboot | 22:18 |
| bekks | for_if: Yes, just like on the page you linked to us. | 22:18 |
| bvier | dr_willis: is there a specific mounting drive that I should get from the software center? | 22:19 |
| DigitalYeti | so, I just formatted and reinstalled windows then ubuntu, but now it boots right into windows (no grub) | 22:19 |
| dr_willis | bvier: i just use the normal mount commands. Every usb adaptor ive seen - never needed any extra drivers | 22:19 |
| DigitalYeti | I tried using boot-repair but it still does it | 22:19 |
| gordonjcp | DigitalYeti: sounds about right; now you need to put grub back | 22:19 |
| DigitalYeti | I have two drives connected, FYI but I chose the right one for grub installation from the advanced options | 22:20 |
| prospero1 | bobweaver thanks but i got "couldnt access archive" | 22:20 |
| dr_willis | DigitalYeti: i tend to put grub on the linux drive and tell the bios to boot that HD. | 22:20 |
| bobweaver | pastebin error please prospero1 | 22:20 |
| bvier | dr_willis: ok, I'll give it a go. Thank you very much! | 22:20 |
| DigitalYeti | gordonjcp: I tried the boot-repair app but it didn't make any difference | 22:20 |
| DigitalYeti | It's on the same drive, two different partitions, the second drive is just storage | 22:20 |
| dr_willis | DigitalYeti: coud be the system is booting the wrong hd. I thought boot-repar had a option to put grub on every hd, :) | 22:20 |
| DigitalYeti | yeah I might try to do that lol | 22:21 |
| DigitalYeti | will that damage anyhting on the storage drive? It's NTFS | 22:21 |
| prospero1 | bobweaver http://paste.ubuntu.com/1397896/ | 22:21 |
| dr_willis | You can put grub on the mbr of your windows drive. :) and thats ntfs also... | 22:21 |
| bobweaver | lol prospero1 you need to download that package of mine | 22:22 |
| prospero1 | k then | 22:22 |
| DigitalYeti | lol true | 22:22 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, that link should auto DL for you if you just put in browser | 22:22 |
| dr_willis | bbl | 22:23 |
| prospero1 | boom yet another error http://paste.ubuntu.com/1397909/ | 22:25 |
| bekks | prospero1: Whatever that "bobsdriver" package might be. Contact the author for repairing his broken package. | 22:26 |
| prospero1 | the author is bobweaver no? | 22:26 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, I made that package for my g-friend because all b43 was not working. I just made a package (added firmware) that installs to /lib/firmware it is the b43 and b43 leg firmware | 22:27 |
| bobweaver | notice that it is called bobsdriver | 22:27 |
| bekks | bobweaver: That package is broken, as you can see in his paste. | 22:28 |
| bobweaver | but it is signed (gpg) with my real name | 22:28 |
| DigitalYeti | yup, that worked :-D | 22:28 |
| DigitalYeti | thanks guys | 22:28 |
| bobweaver | bekks, what ? | 22:28 |
| bobweaver | er | 22:28 |
| bekks | bobweaver: Take a look at his paste... | 22:28 |
| bobweaver | Yeah looking now I must have missed i | 22:28 |
| bobweaver | it 8 | 22:29 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, not sure what is up with that I will look at it more in one second try this one https://launchpad.net/~josephjamesmills/+archive/beta/+files/b43patch_0.0.1-1_all.deb | 22:30 |
| bobweaver | same thing ^^ | 22:30 |
| grimeton | are the networking scripts adding the route to the default gateway automagically if the gateway is in a different subnet? | 22:32 |
| bobweaver | bekks, I see what is wrong with package it is stupid debian/preinst script | 22:32 |
| prospero1 | bobweaver so is this the same b43-fwcutter found on the cd | 22:34 |
| bobweaver | er | 22:34 |
| bulletrulz | how to install slingshot launcher in mate | 22:34 |
| prospero1 | cos it workd now i think | 22:34 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, come again ? | 22:34 |
| prospero1 | should i just continue with the firmware or do somethin else | 22:35 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, is wireless working ? | 22:35 |
| prospero1 | i'm sayin, the deb package u just sent, the last one | 22:35 |
| prospero1 | is it the same as b43-fwcutter | 22:35 |
| bobweaver | No it is just firmware (older firmware at that ) | 22:36 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, ^^ | 22:36 |
| yhusha | if the tmp is moved to ram and ram is dumped will this interupt the system? | 22:36 |
| bekks | yhusha: /tmp is always in RAM, since ages. | 22:36 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, I am confused sorry did the last package install "b43-patch " ? | 22:37 |
| bekks | yhusha: And deleting it will most likely not even harm the system. | 22:37 |
| prospero1 | yea its paste here http://paste.ubuntu.com/1397931/ | 22:37 |
| yhusha | maybe it was fstab that was moved to ram gotta check | 22:37 |
| prospero1 | if this is the firmware then i don't need http://mirror2.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-5.10.56.27.3_mipsel.tar.bz2 anymoar? | 22:37 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, good now remove firmware-b43-installer then sudo modprobe b43 | 22:37 |
| bekks | yhusha: the fstab is never located in the RAM. | 22:38 |
| yhusha | ok | 22:38 |
| bekks | yhusha: Technically impossible. | 22:38 |
| yhusha | unless the whole system was booted from ram... | 22:38 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, all the package is "b43-patch" is just different firmware like it replaces package firmware-b43-installer | 22:38 |
| bekks | yhusha: Out of nowhere? Somewhere, there must be a boot medium. | 22:38 |
| yhusha | ok | 22:39 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, so it is not the b43-fwcutter just a replacement for firmware-b43-installer | 22:39 |
| yhusha | got it | 22:39 |
| bekks | yhusha: What are you actually trying? | 22:39 |
| for_if | how can I change keyboard layout settings (hotkeys) and setup themes on lubuntu without gui? Myabe I can edit some file or use some cmds in terminal? | 22:39 |
| yhusha | lots nof things | 22:39 |
| yhusha | learning | 22:39 |
| iceroot | bekks: /tmp is not stored inside ram | 22:39 |
| dr_willis | i got /tmp on tmpfs | 22:40 |
| prospero1 | right, so reboot now? | 22:40 |
| yhusha | and by the way e17 is so nice right now ubuntu 12.04 | 22:40 |
| iceroot | dr_willis: but tmpfs is not the ram | 22:40 |
| bekks | iceroot: £Since when, it isnt? | 22:40 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, nope just run sudo modprobe b43 | 22:40 |
| bekks | iceroot: Where is tmpfs if not in the RAM? | 22:40 |
| prospero1 | done that too | 22:40 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, dpkg-qurey -l | grep b43 | 22:41 |
| bobweaver | er | 22:41 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, dpkg-query -l | grep b43 | 22:41 |
| iceroot | bekks: you are right | 22:41 |
| bobweaver | bekks is almost always right ;) | 22:41 |
| bekks | iceroot: ;) | 22:41 |
| iceroot | bekks: i though tmpfs will be mapped to swap | 22:41 |
| prospero1 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1397943/ | 22:42 |
| TeamRockey1233c | Hiya! Currently running Ubuntu 12.10, now that I have decent hardware finally, and considering getting an HP Deskjet F2480 or newer equivalent, how well would that all-in-one work in Quantal. | 22:42 |
| bekks | iceroot: In case you just fill it up entirely, it will swap. | 22:42 |
| llutz | iceroot: horrible idea :) | 22:42 |
| iceroot | bekks: and the manpage is telling that "not often used data from tmpfs are stored on swap from the kernel itself" | 22:42 |
| dr_willis | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tmpfs | 22:42 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, you *must* sudo apt-get --purge remove firmware-b43-installer && sudo modprobe b43 | 22:42 |
| bekks | iceroot: Thats how swapping (take a look at vm.swappiness kernel parameter) actually works :) | 22:43 |
| hs366 | Hello, | 22:43 |
| prospero1 | done. reboot? | 22:43 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, yeah | 22:43 |
| iceroot | bekks: ok | 22:44 |
| iceroot | bekks: so it will first go to ram and maybe later to swap | 22:44 |
| TeamRockey1233c | And as for Unity, it's a great UI, and it's kinda pointless of people to bash it all the time. | 22:44 |

| bobweaver | anyone ^^ | 22:44 |

| iceroot | bekks: thx for the info | 22:46 |
| bobweaver | TeamRockey1233c, glade to hear that. TeamRockey1233c you have played with previews and what not ? again that is great that you like Unity I also Love Unity, was more of a 2d kida dude but I am learning to code for 3d now and It is fun. have a good one and let us know if you have any questions about unity , i | 22:47 |
| TeamRockey1233c | bobweaver: My hardware that's currently in service is an HP Compaq dc5750 small form factor, with a Sempron 3400+ ~ 1.8GHz, running Ubuntu 12.10 with Unity. | 22:48 |
| TeamRockey1233c | bobweaver: Relatively low-end hardware, and the thing is actually pretty snappy on it. | 22:48 |
| hs366 | how can i make sure my graphic card driver installed properly ? | 22:48 |
| bobweaver | TeamRockey1233c, you can run nux test always and there is also llvm ./usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p | 22:48 |
| prospero1 | bobweaver still firmware missing | 22:49 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, wait it says that in the network manager ? | 22:49 |
| TeamRockey1233c | bobweaver: RAM and hard drive are skimping a bit, as it started life with Vista downgraded to XP, and it has a DVD-ROM, but all that is easily upgraded, easily and cheaply for the RAM and optical drive. | 22:50 |
| prospero1 | yea sys settings>network | 22:50 |
| llutz | bobweaver: really "rr" from dpkg -l? there is no status "r" (2nd char) in dpkg afaik | 22:50 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, lets see dpkg-query -l | grep b43 again ...... sorry | 22:51 |
| bobweaver | yeah llutz in dpkg-query -l | 22:51 |
| prospero1 | i might just give up on linux if its this stubborn | 22:51 |
| TeamRockey1233c | bobweaver: Put 2 gigs of RAM in this thing, and at least a 160-gig SSD, along with a DVD burner, and my hardware will be almost equal to the main computer as far as hardware specs go. | 22:51 |
| prospero1 | dpkg-query -l | grep b43 | 22:52 |

| SunMoonStar | The NTFS partition is hibernated. Please resume and shutdown Windows | 22:55 |
| SunMoonStar | properly, or mount the volume read-only with the 'ro' mount option, or | 22:55 |
| SunMoonStar | mount the volume read-write with the 'remove_hiberfile' mount option. | 22:55 |
| FloodBot1 | SunMoonStar: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 22:55 |
| prospero1 | bad news for both bobweaver http://paste.ubuntu.com/1397970/ | 22:55 |

| [_-S1L3NC3-_] | how can i know how much ram i have? | 22:56 |
| myk_robinson | evening | 22:56 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, what about dmesg | grep b43 | 22:56 |
| dr_willis | SunMoonStar: so mount it with the ro (read only) option, or the remove_hiberfile option | 22:57 |
| myk_robinson | In 12.10, how do I create a shortcut to a website on my desktop? | 22:57 |
| TeamRocket1233c | bobweaver: Anyways, as I was saying, won't cost too much or take too long to make my hardware specs equal to my parents', while they run Vista and I'd be running Ubuntu/ | 22:57 |
| bobweaver | [_-S1L3NC3-_], free -m | 22:57 |
| [_-S1L3NC3-_] | ok | 22:57 |
| bobweaver | [_-S1L3NC3-_], -m = megabytes -g = gigs ect you can "man free" | 22:58 |
| prospero1 | looks informative http://paste.ubuntu.com/1397971/ | 22:58 |
| llutz | SunMoonStar: only use option" remove_hiberfile" if you don't want to boot windows from that drive again, it might get corrupted as it was not shutdown cleanly before | 22:58 |
| dr_willis | SunMoonStar: im not sure where you got tat mount line from. or why you are quoteing everything, ;) but you most likely want to use ntfs-3g not ntfs | 22:59 |
| [_-S1L3NC3-_] | ty | 22:59 |
| TeamRocket1233c | bobweaver: Which, thanks to Unity is easier to use , snappier, and more intuitive than Vista, which doesn't have a bad UI, really, more secure and stable, handles resources better, and free. | 22:59 |
| SunMoonStar | llutz: too late.. I did this: http://pastebin.com/qTiwDDrc and I am in the drive. I won't be able to access it again? | 22:59 |

| bobweaver | prospero1, NEVER !!! j/k up to you | 23:01 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, looking at dmesg | 23:02 |

| llutz | SunMoonStar: should be no problem then | 23:02 |
| SunMoonStar | llutz: thanks | 23:02 |
| SunMoonStar | llutz: I have the window open of the drive but it periodically closes the window and reopens it.. | 23:03 |

| dr_willis | or the cables are loose | 23:05 |
| dsa | cant get boot menu by default only if i press shift key :s and after it should either display text or a splash before booting to cli right but its 2 blank screens :s kind of buggy right? (ubuntu 12.04.1) | 23:05 |

| dr_willis | SunMoonStar: the messages in thee mention the hub is low speed usb. and may be sucking down too much power. | 23:10 |
| dr_willis | id plug the hd in to a differnt port on the pc. | 23:10 |
| SunMoonStar | the usb 3.0 port? | 23:10 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, only thing that I can think of is if bcma needs to be installed for some un-known reason | 23:10 |
| nonkn4mer | That can happen when you try and plug into a usb port on a keyboard | 23:10 |

| markovh | hey i know this is flakey where i should be asking this but i figured i'd ask here first. I'm writing a c program with pcap. I've installed libpcap and libpcap-dev. For some reason though -lpcap doesn't seem to work. I have to do -I /pcap.h_path and -L /pcap_lib_path -lpcap. Should the directories or paths not be setup by default to make -lpcap work without any of this? | 23:13 |
| TeamRocket1233c | SunMoonStar: Any of the ports dying? | 23:13 |

| SunMoonStar | TeamRocket1233c: i dont know.. | 23:14 |
| SunMoonStar | TeamRocket1233c: it shouldn't.. | 23:14 |
| SunMoonStar | it stopped reloading | 23:14 |
| markovh | ah... shit nvm | 23:14 |
| TeamRocket1233c | SunMoonStar: If it's just the hard drive that's dying, and you have enough cash, you can get a new SSD, and install that with a copy of Lubuntu for the OS. | 23:14 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, run sudo modprobe bcma any errors ? | 23:15 |
| TeamRocket1233c | SunMoonStar: What I intend to do with my computer, not 'cause the hard drive is dying, but because it's a tad small. | 23:15 |
| prospero1 | nothing just returns to prompt | 23:15 |
| TeamRocket1233c | SunMoonStar: Pick up a 120-gig SSD at the least. | 23:16 |
| markovh | apparently order of arguments makes a difference | 23:16 |
| TeamRocket1233c | SunMoonStar: Assuming you have SATA of course. | 23:17 |
| SunMoonStar | TeamRocket1233c: it's all good I am just helping someone recover some data. It is transferring files now, she doesn't care about the hdd after that | 23:17 |
| TeamRocket1233c | SunMoonStar: I know I have SATA, but your netbook should too. | 23:17 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, sudo modprobe -r bcma && sudo modprobe -r b43 | 23:17 |

| fazzaan | Tex_Nick: I think that was a nautilus feature which they've since removed :( | 23:43 |
| bobweaver | prospero1, you should have the firmware that is in dmesg error b43/ht0initvals29.fw and b43-open/ucode29_mimo.fw that is what is making it so that it is not running | 23:44 |
| bobweaver | or so the kernel story goes | 23:44 |
