Jordan_U | OpenSorce: For steam on Ubuntu, #ubuntu-steam. | 00:00 |
recover_ext4 | Data lost during an automated backup I had setup; files were all in the default user directory and sub-directories. | 00:00 |
genii-around | OpenSorce: #ubuntu-steam ... if you're one of the people previewing it | 00:00 |
OpenSorce | Jordan_U, genii-around thanks :-) | 00:00 |
GartimusPrime | no other fix for black screen with only mouse pointer? | 00:00 |
Jordan_U | recover_ext4: Lost how though? Were they accidentily overwritten? Was the filesystem corrupted? Was the partition table corrupted? | 00:01 |

Jordan_U | OpenSorce: You're welcome. | 00:01 |
Dogget | Just installed 12.10 and trying to find the best driver for my ati 7850, any help more than welcome | 00:02 |
Jordan_U | BlackScreen: It's probably easier to just select the correct drive manually from your firmware menus once, then once Ubuntu is booted run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" to install grub's boot sector to both drives (and configure the grub-pc package to do so whenever grub is upgraded). | 00:02 |
BlackScreen | Jordan_U: firmware menus meaning? sorry, not very used to this | 00:03 |
recover_ext4 | Automated backup was running, then there was the auto update which started. After backup was complete, I let the auto update do the partial upgrade which it prompted for. Then I restarted the computer, safely removed the extra hdd, and continued the partial upgrade. | 00:03 |
recover_ext4 | The partial upgrade messed up the operating system, and I had to reinstall it. What I realised later was the backup files were also corrupt. | 00:04 |

=== Guest86689 is now known as jimerickson | ||
Jordan_U | recover_ext4: Then it sounds like the files were overwritten, which means that http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel might help, though I don't know to what extent it supports ext4. | 00:07 |
recover_ext4 | It didn't work for ext4, already tried it. | 00:07 |

xpoqz | Hi, having problems, my keyboard settings is set to Norwegian as far as I can see, however it's really still english.. | 00:26 |
xpoqz | fresh install, /etc/default/keyboard XKBLAYOUT os set tp | 00:26 |
xpoqz | set to 'no' | 00:27 |
xpoqz | for norwegian.. | 00:27 |
xpoqz | also the ubuntu gui keyboard program shows Norwegian.. | 00:28 |
anon2012 | ce qualche italiano | 00:32 |
bug-traq | xpogz: are you wanting to keep english or what ??? | 00:32 |
kakkin | haha | 00:32 |
xpoqz | bug-traq, I do not want to keep english keyboard layout, I want Norwegian | 00:32 |
xpoqz | and it is set to Norwegian but it's still not really the Norwegian layout.. | 00:33 |
bug-traq | xpoqs: ok | 00:33 |
DrManhattan | how do I start gnome from the console? | 00:33 |
Riberty | what is the best program to access/retrieeve files on a linux parition on windows? | 00:34 |
DrManhattan | startx just gives me a background screen and a cursor | 00:34 |
bug-traq | xpoqz: try this script in terminal ---> sudo setxkbmap -option grp:alt_shift_toggle no,ru | 00:35 |
xpoqz | bug-traq, that gives me the Norwegian layout indeed, however it doesn't quite make sense to me that one | 00:36 |
xpoqz | thanks though :) | 00:37 |
bug-traq | xpoqz: anytime , it may be a bug ??? | 00:37 |
xpoqz | hmm, perhaps | 00:37 |
bug-traq | ?? | 00:37 |

noneya | Can anyone give me some ideas on how to convert an file in xml | 00:41 |
noneya | to sql that is? | 00:41 |
noneya | Any software? I am not a programmer but am not afraid to learn to. Any pointers? | 00:41 |
bug-traq | DrManhattan, type this in terminal for gnome | 00:41 |
bug-traq | gdm | 00:41 |
blackshirt | wiw | 00:42 |
bug-traq | noneya, from xml to sql ??? | 00:43 |
blackshirt | noneya, do you want learn programming ? | 00:43 |
bekks | noneya: You have to create a xslt as well, to tell "xml" about what to do with which content. | 00:43 |
DrManhattan | bug-traq, im on 12.04 - its lightdm but thank you nonetheless :) | 00:43 |
noneya | bug-traq: Yes from xml to sql. | 00:43 |
noneya | blackshirt: If that is what it takes I will learn to program. | 00:44 |
bekks | noneya: Thats nothing about programming. | 00:44 |
tuxillo | hi | 00:44 |
tuxillo | can somebody point me to an IRC channel where I can find some devs? | 00:44 |
bekks | noneya: Thats just something about knowing on which content you have and what you want to do with it exactly, in SQL. | 00:44 |
bekks | noneya: Most likely, you just want some sophisticated sed/awk approach. | 00:45 |
noneya | I want to convert this to XML http://sspc-website.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/include/bibles/kjv.xml | 00:45 |
noneya | Or to SQL I mean. | 00:45 |
bekks | noneya: ...into what? Do you have a database scheme, and a table layout already? | 00:46 |
noneya | bekks: Yes, I am learning SQL at the moment (HSQL). | 00:46 |
bekks | noneya: HSQL is a plague. | 00:46 |
noneya | bekks: Why? | 00:46 |
bug-traq | noneya: are you running windows or linux ??? | 00:46 |
noneya | bug-traq: Linux | 00:47 |
bekks | noneya: Because it is a stripped-off, changed randomly, approach of the SQL standard. | 00:47 |
noneya | bekks: Any better ideas? | 00:47 |
xevwork | When is rc.local run during the boot process? Should networking and filesystems all be online at that point? | 00:47 |
bekks | noneya: Not without knowing what your goal is, actually. | 00:47 |
rosevp | can someone help with xming -> xdm? | 00:48 |
noneya | So what is this XSLT going to do for me? | 00:48 |
bekks | xevwork: rc.local is run as the last script when booting, and the first one when shutting your box off. | 00:48 |
bug-traq | noneya : is it for a server ??? | 00:48 |
noneya | bug-traq: Negative. | 00:48 |
bekks | noneya: XSLT will tell your XML whats the meaning of your XML content, how it is going to be translated into SQL element content, etc. | 00:48 |
dr_willis | its ran on shutdown? never notced that. | 00:49 |
rosevp | everything is steup but wireshark shows xdm from server is sending magic-cookie- | 00:49 |
noneya | bekks: Do you have any good lins for an intro for me? | 00:49 |
bekks | dr_willis: Actually it is, most likely no one knows :D | 00:49 |
rosevp | I thought magic-cooke isn't sent with xdm | 00:49 |
noneya | bekks: I meant "links" | 00:49 |
bug-traq | noneya: i did find a wiki about it here is the link instead of trying to type it or copy and paste it to you ----> http://www.ehow.com/how_7573270_convert-xml-sql-database-ubuntu.html | 00:50 |
bekks | noneya: Start here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XSL_Transformation | 00:50 |
noneya | bug-traq bekks I will give them a look. Thanks. | 00:51 |
rosevp | any suggestion on xming/xdm? | 00:52 |
bug-traq | noneya: ok it explains everything | 00:53 |
noneya | bug-traq: Alright, thanks. | 00:53 |
bekks | rosevp: Whats wrong with that? | 00:57 |
Smedles | hi all - any way of controlling which serial port a usb-serial adapter gets? I have an ftdi adapter for solar monitoring, and a pl2303 for household energy consumption monitoring - they do not consistently get allocated ttyUSB0 and ttyUSB1 - it seems somewhat random | 00:58 |
Smedles | so then the monitoring apps don't start correctly. only an issue on a reboot, which is rare, but still a pita | 00:59 |
bekks | Smedles: You could create a udev rule for those devices. | 00:59 |
dr_willis | Smedles: custom udev rules | 00:59 |
Smedles | any docs on that? | 00:59 |
dr_willis | !udev | 00:59 |
Smedles | sounds like just what I need :) | 00:59 |
dr_willis | one of those areas ive never mssed with.. | 01:00 |
Smedles | http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7986034/linux-how-to-force-a-usb-device-to-use-the-same-ttyusb-number | 01:00 |

rosevp | hi bekks - been having troulbe with connecting to win 7 (Xming) to xdm (ubuntu) | 01:09 |

Adam2_ | This may sound like a strange question, but what command can I use to open the Ubuntu Network Manager? | 01:12 |
bixit | I'm now finding one part of the window x system extremely slow after fresh install - seems like it has problems when dragging windows around | 01:12 |
xomniverse | when I launch Banshee, it immediately closes itself unless I launch it with sudo in the terminal | 01:12 |
xomniverse | in the terminal, if I don't use "sudo" it says "[ERROR] FATAL UNHANDLED EXCEPTION: GLib.GException: Can't recursively copy directory | 01:13 |
xomniverse | " | 01:13 |
bixit | tried to remove vsync from the compiz settings but that didn't help | 01:13 |
xangua | xomniverse: well looks like we know why now :) - I launch it with sudo in the terminal | 01:13 |
xomniverse | I'd prefer not to do that consistently; is there a file permission or something I can alter to fix it? | 01:14 |
escott | xomniverse, you need to sudo chown -r user:group the folder with all your music | 01:15 |
rosevp | can someone assist in xming -> xdm? | 01:15 |
rosevp | having issues connecting | 01:15 |
xomniverse | escott: it said invalid option r when I did that | 01:15 |
mojo1 | question: does anyone know what putting the directive "start" at the end of a bash command line does? my boss found it in some bash scripts for an automation / testing system we use and we can't figure out what it does | 01:16 |
escott | xomniverse, -R | 01:16 |
almoxarife | does lxde need gvfs to operate correctly? | 01:16 |
escott | mojo1, example? | 01:16 |
xomniverse | how do I know what group I am in? | 01:17 |
escott | xomniverse, id or groups | 01:17 |
jrib | mojo1: give an example... | 01:18 |
yhusha_ | so this is the string thats being an issue just did: sudo mount /casper/filesystem.squashfs /mnt | 01:18 |
yhusha_ | followed by: sudo mkdir /casper/chroot followed by: sudo rsync -ax /mnt/. /casper/chroot/. | 01:18 |
rosevp | why is xdm sending magic-cookie- | 01:18 |
Adam2_ | mojo1: If it's an init script, it just tells the specific system to start. It's some sort of standard argument or something. | 01:18 |
yhusha_ | but the last line didnt seem to do what it was supposed to | 01:18 |
rosevp | I send x -query remote ip and xdm sends back magic-cookie. is this correct? | 01:18 |
xomniverse | ok so I ran the following command | 01:19 |
Adam2_ | This may sound like a strange question, but what command can I use to open the Ubuntu Network Manager? | 01:19 |
xomniverse | sudo chown -R xomniverse:xomniverse /home/xomniverse/Music | 01:19 |
mojo1 | i don't think it is an init script. my boss would know that. it is given on the command line that launches the script ... space, "start" at the end... but it does not appear to be an argument as he said he didn't find anywhere in the script that it looked at args. I unfortunately don't have the script to look at. he threw the question out there and said the first one to figure it out gets a mexican coke. (real sugar). ;-) | 01:19 |
xomniverse | and it seemed to work | 01:20 |
xomniverse | but still getting the same issuie | 01:20 |
xomniverse | in Banshee | 01:20 |
FloodBot1 | xomniverse: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:20 |
yhusha_ | is there a way to make an imaginary cdrom to run these codes as is in the tutorial | 01:20 |
yhusha_ | that calls for use of cdrom iso | 01:20 |
xomniverse | would the fact that my music folder is a symlink cause issues with Banshee? | 01:20 |
yhusha_ | like maybe create a directory in media thats called cdrom | 01:21 |
duarteper | hello | 01:21 |
yhusha_ | anybody think that would work | 01:21 |
yhusha_ | in /media | 01:21 |
escott | mojo1, without any parsed character like ' ` ; " | > before that the shell just passes that as an argument to the command. my guess is this is dailywtf worthy in that a previous coder thought you needed to start every command | 01:21 |
mojo1 | lol @escot | 01:22 |
mojo1 | thanks escott & all... you may be right. he could not determine that it made any difference when run. | 01:22 |
haylo | so whats with ubuntu-live being ivite only ? | 01:22 |
haylo | i would like to be able to keep track of live build in bot ubuntu and debian :P | 01:23 |
mojo1 | it is part of an hp automation system for automated testing of applications. | 01:23 |
Adam2_ | yhusha_: If you just do "sudo mount </path/to/your.iso> /mount/cdrom" it should work. | 01:23 |
yhusha_ | this is what the task is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM but without a cdrom as is apparently used in the guide | 01:23 |
yhusha_ | well this is the code and its not making sense: sudo mount -o loop -t squashfs /casper/filesystem.squashfs /mnt | 01:24 |
yhusha_ | why the first instance of squashfs after loop -t | 01:25 |
Dougie187 | When something causes a crash, and ubuntu tries to generate a bug report, does it also take a memory dump? or just a stack trace? | 01:25 |
haylo | yhusha_: you are trying to alter the contents of the squasjfs ? | 01:25 |
haylo | you are mounting it wrong :P | 01:25 |
yhusha_ | yea | 01:25 |
yhusha_ | no\ | 01:25 |
yhusha_ | other files | 01:25 |
haylo | mount it at byte number 512 | 01:25 |
haylo | that will get what you want | 01:25 |
xomniverse | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1401028/ This is what Banshee says in terminal when I run it without sudo. It's very cryptic | 01:25 |
yhusha_ | its right here | 01:26 |
yhusha_ | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM | 01:26 |
haylo | yhusha_: its easier to boot to ram than this though for a live cd | 01:27 |
haylo | look at boot parameter "toram" | 01:27 |
haylo | im not sure if its bugged. but that is supposed to copy the whole filesystem to ram at boot | 01:27 |
yhusha_ | yes but this would make it so the system after install boots these certain things to ram every time right' | 01:27 |
haylo | man live-boot | 01:27 |

abdostar | JuJuBee: not yet, is this a thing I should do in webmin, or the router? | 01:52 |
JuJuBee | abdostar: edit /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward and change the 0 to a 1 | 01:52 |

yeats | !webmin | 02:04 |
ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. | 02:04 |
lexngton | yeah i know..the old version of ubuntu/pinguy worked just fine with ati because my friend had one | 02:04 |
lexngton | not sure why the new one has issues | 02:04 |
lexngton | they are working it on though | 02:04 |
skutr34 | lexngton: Do you happen to know the alternative to the --initial parameter with aticonfig? | 02:04 |
abdostar | bobweaver: :) my 2nd install today, after I missed up something with the 1st one | 02:04 |
lexngton | honestly i gave up on that..i just use the default drivers...i gave up on installing ati drivers | 02:04 |
skutr34 | lexngton: And yeah. 10.10 was fantastic on my other machine using an ATI card | 02:04 |
JuJuBee | abdostar: yeats: I use it now and it does fine for what I use it for. iptables mostly | 02:05 |
JuJuBee | I just hate the syntax of iptables rules? | 02:05 |
bobweaver | abdostar, you are aware that there is a saying . give root permissions to user . what could go wrong ? | 02:05 |
yeats | JuJuBee: check out ufw | 02:05 |
abdostar | JuJuBee: where can i find iptables in webmin? | 02:05 |
bobweaver | JuJuBee, there is ipcop pfsense gufw ect | 02:05 |
JuJuBee | yeats: what does United Farm Workers have to do with anything? LOL | 02:06 |
ScottNYC | where can I see a list of packages ubuntu comes with by default? | 02:06 |
ScottNYC | comes pre-installed with* | 02:06 |
bobweaver | ScottNYC, depends | 02:06 |
yeats | !ufw | 02:06 |
ubottu | 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. | 02:06 |
JuJuBee | bobweaver: do these all manage iptables config? | 02:06 |
bobweaver | because everyone gets different settings sometimes ScottNYC but you can look at iso | 02:06 |
bobweaver | JuJuBee,the ipcop pfsense do | 02:07 |
ScottNYC | ok thx bobweaver | 02:07 |
matej_ | nvidia sucks | 02:07 |
RickZilla | demoing 12.10, when I open up firefox, LibreOffice, etc, I'm used to seeing another menu set at the top that I can access. Those seem to be gone in ubuntu 12.10, is there a different way to access those? | 02:07 |
bobweaver | ScottNYC, you can install a miniamal and run dpkg-query -l to see all packages installed | 02:07 |
JuJuBee | bobweaver: yeats: will they try to overwrite my current config or just read it in and let me edit? | 02:07 |
bobweaver | ScottNYC, or you can extract image and look at the config there is a file can not remeber name | 02:08 |
bobweaver | ScottNYC, I will mount a img | 02:08 |
yeats | JuJuBee: not sure - I would do backups of your rules, then experiment | 02:08 |
JuJuBee | abdostar: looks like gufw is a gui front end for "uncomplicated firewall" https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | 02:08 |
ScottNYC | ok thx alot | 02:08 |
JuJuBee | yeats: I do a nightly backup | 02:09 |
yeats | JuJuBee: and ufw is a wrapper around iptables | 02:09 |
JuJuBee | yeats: I am reading the docs now. Looks cool. I will give it a try. | 02:09 |

topper4125 | Although “Gateway Timeout” is usually reported as the reason for HTTP 504 errors, they can also arise from problems with proxies, which are slightly different from gateways in that they do not act like origin servers. | 06:43 |
DialZ | topper4125: Looks like the problem was that the beta catalyst drivers were actually built using the kernel headers for the pre-update kernel. | 06:44 |
_andyj_ | shuggans: maybe I should expand on what I have been setting up, I run kvm/qemu with multiple ubuntu machines and I installed apt-cacher to not be so heavy on requests to ubuntu repo's... it works for all machines except this one, but when I wget to the repos I can access the files just fine | 06:44 |
DialZ | I needed to remove completely all that stuff, apt-get install the new linux-headers, then reinistall the amd catalyst drivers | 06:45 |

mkhan3189 | if no DVI is found, it uses HDMI only then | 06:56 |
shuggans | Ahhh | 06:56 |
gangband | te frige | 06:56 |
shuggans | you have to use displayport for 3 monitors | 06:56 |
_andyj_ | mkhan3189 just because it has 3 ports doesn't guarantee it supports using all 3 at once, my ati card has 5 ports but the dvi and mini-hdmi can't run at same time | 06:56 |
shuggans | I dont think you can run d-sub, dvi, and hdmi all at once. | 06:56 |
shuggans | they are probably there for convienience of interfaces | 06:57 |
mkhan3189 | _andyj_ make sense. i guess i will have to go back and go nuts on the guy who said it will support all at once | 06:57 |

ubuntu_pro | hi there - i'm running precise and i was guided to replace my kernel with 3.4.0-030400-generic to get around a bug where USB3 fills up dmesg | 07:19 |
ubuntu_pro | question is what is the preferred method for backing back to the previous kernel release | 07:20 |
Mechdave | ubuntu_pro, With your kernel install was it through apt-get or manual install? Do you still have previous kernels installed. The grub boot menu will tell you if you have | 07:21 |
ubuntu_pro | Mechdave: yes they are still installed. It was through apt-get. | 07:21 |
Mechdave | ubuntu_pro, then it is simply a matter of apt-get purge the pqckages you installed | 07:22 |
Mechdave | ubuntu_pro, You in Adelaide? | 07:22 |
ubuntu_pro | Is there a way to do it without purging the packages? Just changing the default boot? | 07:22 |
ubuntu_pro | Mech: Sydney - from Adelaide originally though :) and will be back in a couple of weeks | 07:23 |
Mechdave | ubuntu_pro, Yes, you can change the boot priority in the grub configuration | 07:24 |
Mechdave | ubuntu_pro, Thought you were an Aussie, recognise an internode ip anywhere ;) | 07:25 |
andis | UBUNBTUUUUUUUUUUUU | 07:25 |
ubuntu_pro | Mech: is it just a case of editing grub.cfg manually or is there a utility that modifies it for you | 07:26 |
ubuntu_pro | Mech: I can probably hack at it to make it work but I like to find the most appropriate way :) | 07:26 |
Mechdave | ubuntu_pro, Have a look here --> http://askubuntu.com/questions/100232/how-do-i-change-the-grub-boot-order | 07:27 |

crackerjackz | et_: what seems to be the problem? | 09:03 |
et_ | well from what i experienced | 09:03 |
Maximus_ | Xabster yup, except grub by passed the live/install mode | 09:04 |
et_ | any driver i pick from the gui is not working worth a crap | 09:04 |
Maximus_ | just went right on the desktop | 09:04 |

et_ | yeah exactly | 09:04 |
et_ | sorry i should have specified | 09:05 |
crackerjackz | et_: well did you upgrade your kernel or anything like that recently? | 09:05 |

Maximus_ | the keyboard is a Logitech G19, it's worked in 11.10/12.02 and same with mouse, Logitech G700 | 09:07 |

thomaslove7788 | I don't know my ubuntu needs anti-virus software? I am going to install avast! anti-virus program ... | 09:24 |
gordonjcp | Maximus_: is it a USB keyboard? Is it possible you have some bizarre setting in your BIOS for legacy keyboards | 09:25 |
gordonjcp | thomaslove7788: are you running a mailserver? | 09:25 |
dr_willis | !av | 09:25 |
ubottu | Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 09:25 |
gordonjcp | thomaslove7788: that's about the only time you'd want an antivirus | 09:25 |
thomaslove7788 | gordonjcp, Windows 8 Pro | 09:25 |
gordonjcp | thomaslove7788: right, but that's not Linux... | 09:25 |
gordonjcp | thomaslove7788: unless you're doing some very specific things in Linux that relate to making it a server for Windows machines, you won't need an antivirus | 09:26 |
gordonjcp | there are no viruses for Linux, and it seems unlikely that there ever will be | 09:26 |

thomaslove7788 | gordonjcp, thanks. I install ubuntu desktop in Windows 8 Pro | 09:27 |
gordonjcp | uuvn: what does winhex do? | 09:27 |
gordonjcp | thomaslove7788: I don't really understand what that means | 09:27 |
uuvn | check memroy | 09:28 |
gordonjcp | Maximus_: have you got a PS/2 keyboard you can try? | 09:28 |
gordonjcp | uuvn: memtest86? It's part of the install media | 09:28 |

crackerjackz | what version of ubuntu are you running? | 09:28 |

crackerjackz | well i dont hate passwords.. but i hate that they actually tried to pull a fast one on me like that | 09:32 |
thomaslove7788 | gordonjcp, it's dual-boot Ubuntu 12.10 and Windows 8 Pro! | 09:32 |
=== Fr0stbyte is now known as Frostbyte | ||
crackerjackz | or actually did rather... | 09:32 |
gordonjcp | thomaslove7788: okay, so Windows isn't really relevant when it's booted into Linux | 09:33 |
crackerjackz | good thing i was smart enough to undo it | 09:33 |
gordonjcp | thomaslove7788: I guess you could run an antivirus on Linux, to scan your Windows drive | 09:33 |
gordonjcp | thomaslove7788: I don't know if that works, because I don't know anything about Windows | 09:33 |
Maximus_ | yes it does, it's using the ASMedia Controller not the Intel IvyBridge one (ie its booting from my USB 3.0 on the case no the io shield) | 09:33 |
thomaslove7788 | gordonjcp, when I start my computer, it has 2 options: (1) Windows 8 Pro (2) Ubuntu 12.10 | 09:34 |
crackerjackz | Maximus_: do they work from the live cd? | 09:34 |
gordonjcp | thomaslove7788: if you boot Linux, then Windows isn't doing anything | 09:34 |
gordonjcp | thomaslove7788: Windows viruses won't affect Linux, and there are no Linux viruses | 09:34 |
crackerjackz | thomaslove7788: what are you trying to do exactly? | 09:34 |
Maximus_ | It should.. ima try booting from the io shield this time. | 09:35 |

Maximus_ | wtf | 09:35 |
Maximus_ | my mouse and keyboard working now | 09:35 |
crackerjackz | yah gordon is right windows viruses have no effect on linux... none of the files are even in use unless you open them like say you open a song or a picture or something | 09:35 |
Maximus_ | like with changing anything, I guess the kernel was taking it's sweet time.. | 09:36 |
Frostbyte | vesh7807: I've copied from the example configurations, and rewrote my settings 2-3 times now.. upon starting, it just doesn't create the interface | 09:36 |
thomaslove7788 | gordonjcp, if I boot linux, only Ubuntu Linux boots, Windows 8 Pro no not start. | 09:36 |
llutz | Frostbyte: does your server have tun-support enabled at all (ie some vps don't)? | 09:36 |
Frostbyte | I do not use VPS, it's a home server with no-ip DUC | 09:37 |
crackerjackz | Maximus_: there is some command that i can't remember off the top of my head that will show you what drivers the cd is using.. lspci -n or something idr but you copy the output of the command to this website and it tells you what drivers to look for and install | 09:37 |
crackerjackz | you have to boot from the cd and then run the command though | 09:37 |
crackerjackz | let me see if i can find the website... | 09:37 |
llutz | Frostbyte: grep CONFIG_TUN /boot/config-$(uname -r) | 09:38 |

vbgunz | nothing really, the computer froze and I hard to do a hard reset and then no matter what, I get dropped at initramfs | 09:42 |

Zambz | hey guys, I've just been playing with Python's awesome virtualenv which lets you install python packages in a custom directory and create multiple virtual environments with certain packages. This got me thinking, does anyone know of a way to do the same with Ubuntu packages via apt-get or similar? Say for example, I want to install 3 - 4 Debian packages in one directory in environment A and | 09:47 |
Zambz | then have a clean environment with a different package in environment B? :) thanks heaps for your help in advance | 09:47 |
vbgunz | on my main system, I cannot get past the initramfs prompt. my data is pretty much hostage at this point, if I could just save it I'll be grateful as all hell. can anyone help me at all? | 09:48 |
Zambz | Have you considered booting into the CD and trying to mount your hard disk? | 09:48 |
Zambz | might be the way to go | 09:48 |
crimsonmane | vbgunz: power down system. remove hdd. install hdd to another computer. recover data. | 09:49 |
llutz | Frostbyte: you've seen the last lines, correct it | 09:49 |
Zambz | to see if your files are safe, you could potentially then plugin a USB drive and copy em on there | 09:49 |
Frostbyte | llutz : yeah, I noticed | 09:49 |
Maximus_ | yea all of my controllers and devices are working, I guess loading it all from usb was talking a long time. the desktop showed up instantly but I couldn't move the mouse or keyboard. | 09:49 |
llutz | Frostbyte: seems openvpn doesn't start due to this, thus there couldn't be a tun-device at all | 09:49 |
vbgunz | I cannot mount that hdd from another installation. | 09:50 |
crimsonmane | why can you not mount the hdd from another installation? | 09:51 |
Maximus_ | question, would I even need swap space with 16Gbs of RAM? | 09:51 |
crimsonmane | Maximus_: if you want to hibernate, yes | 09:52 |
crimsonmane | vbgunz: for what reason can you not mount the hdd? | 09:52 |
llutz | vbgunz: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/33284/recovering-ext4-superblocks | 09:52 |
Maximus_ | ah man.. and how much swap would be needed? it's 128GB SSD | 09:53 |
zypeh | PHEW | 09:53 |
Frostbyte | llutz : if I edit easy-rsa with my openvpn path, I can't create certificates.. I get bash: /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/whichopensslcnf: No such file or directory | 09:53 |
crimsonmane | Maximus_: i'd rather not continue this conversation. i am sorry but i do not feel i am qualified to advize | 09:53 |
satwood | there is some way where i can ssh into a machine and then let another person see what commands i type : they attach to that terminal, what is it ? | 09:53 |
vbgunz | it's a btrfs on /dev/sda1. I am not sure it is a btrfs problem (could be), I just keep getting dropped to an initramfs prompt when trying to boot up directly off the disk. from there, nothing I can do. from this system with the disk attached I run sudo mount -o ro /dev/sda1 /mnt and it just hangs | 09:53 |
crimsonmane | Maximus_: i think 16gigs swap | 09:54 |
Frostbyte | llutz : I guess I should move it | 09:54 |
crimsonmane | satwood: no. ssh will not appear for them. you want Remmina probably for Remote Control | 09:54 |
satwood | crimsonmane: where is a way for them to connect to the same tty or something | 09:55 |
llutz | Frostbyte: you shouldn't need to move anything. do you have certs created before? | 09:55 |
=== Bladerunner is now known as Bladerunn | ||
Frostbyte | Frostbyte : yeah, but if it made the certs with "'pwd'" as default export dir, where are the certs? | 09:55 |
crimsonmane | satwood: none that i'm aware of. I think "Remote Control" is the simplest and most effective solution for you. | 09:55 |
crackerjackz | you think i could overclock a Intel Pentium T2060 / 1.6 GHz to 2.0 GHz with out frying it? | 09:56 |
crimsonmane | satwood: when you remote control, they see everything you do | 09:56 |
satwood | crimsonmane: i want only for a terminal, not entire desktop, does remote control do that ? | 09:56 |
crimsonmane | crackerjackz: that's not so much the question as should be asking "WIll you have any noticable increase in performance" answer is no. | 09:56 |
llutz | Frostbyte: whereever $PWD pointed at that time to. use "find" to get them or make new ones in the easy-rsa/keys dir | 09:56 |
mojob | quit | 09:56 |
crimsonmane | satwood: it's an unfortunate side effect of remote control, but you can just full-screen the terminal. | 09:56 |
satwood | crimsonmane: i want only text, connectoin is slow, so looking for text based option only | 09:57 |
Frostbyte | llutz : I'll do them from scratch just to be sure, I made some changes | 09:57 |
llutz | Frostbyte: usually you do as root: cd /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa ; . ./vars; ./build-ca | 09:57 |
crackerjackz | crimsonmane: id say the best thing i could do to increase performance would be to get some RAM, it has a gig in it but everything is still sluggish not really sure why. just got this computer a couple months ago | 09:57 |
Frostbyte | llutz : that's what I did now | 09:58 |
crimsonmane | satwood: i guess it's time to google | 09:58 |
crackerjackz | i'm still curious about overclocking the processor though or maybe even overclocking the RAM | 09:58 |
crimsonmane | crackerjackz: a gig is TINY amount of ram | 09:58 |
Frostbyte | llutz : a little clarification, does it matter if the client1 cert has the same credentials with server cert? never figured why we need a client1 cert | 09:59 |
crimsonmane | crackerjackz: if possible, add a video card (make sure you have enough wattage from your power supply unit). and add one gig ram at least. make sure you have airflow for the vid card. this will improve your computer far more than overclocking your cpu by 0.3 ghz | 09:59 |
crackerjackz | yah but ive ran other distros of linux with 256 and 512 mb ram. what can i do to tweak ubuntu? | 10:00 |
llutz | Frostbyte: shouldn't matter, it just makes reading logs more difficult because all things are named equal | 10:00 |

Frostbyte | llutz : but the server conf only has entries for ca.crt server.crt and server.key and that dh thingy | 10:03 |

iceroot | what is the common way to have an encrpyted folder (not partition) which can only be opened (gui and cli) when using a passphrase | 10:04 |
MonkeyDust | crackerjackz picked this up in this channel http://paste.ubuntu.com/1401609/ | 10:05 |
llutz | Frostbyte: mesh-vpn? | 10:05 |
iceroot | and, is there a way to encrpyted a partition which is already in use (without formating) | 10:05 |
Frostbyte | llutz : much like how hamachi behaves | 10:05 |
Frostbyte | llutz : I believe openvpn can do that | 10:06 |
Frostbyte | llutz : I've got a tun0 \o/ | 10:07 |
llutz | Frostbyte: sorry i don't know what hamachi is/does, i only use openvpn as gateways for some clients. but i'd guess, whatever you want to connect to your openvpn still needs a cert to authenticate. but you might ask in #openvpn the more versed people about this | 10:07 |
vbgunz | holy crap, btrfs-restore might just be the answer, it looks like it's creating the tree from sda1 | 10:07 |
Frostbyte | llutz : it's a mesh network that uses tunneling - it's just that they do the authentication and have their certs | 10:08 |
vbgunz | I swear I get my stuff back, I will not mess with btrfs until it's automatic | 10:08 |
Frostbyte | llutz : but because most of the times I go through their relay, I wanted to host my own server | 10:08 |
Frostbyte | llutz : I'm gonna figure this soon, thanx for helping.. progressed a step now ;) | 10:08 |

iceroot | egorchik007: ii? | 10:55 |
egorchik007 | iceroot: rc | 10:55 |
Walex | crackerjackz: you may be using both, as the typical config is to have an ALSA plugin which diverts to PulseAudio, which then uses ALSA | 10:56 |
Zambz | ejo: thanks for your reply :) | 10:56 |
crackerjackz | ID: 00:1b.0 is the device i'm trying to get working | 10:56 |
egorchik007 | iceroot: there is also no /etc/apache2, however, i back-uped the sites' configs | 10:56 |
=== mindstor1 is now known as mindstorm | ||
iceroot | egorchik007: ok, so you removed apache2.2-common which is provinding the file /usr/sbin/a2dismod. that file is needed from libapache2-mod-rp for the remove-part, because the file does not exist the removing is failing and dpkg has a state where packages are not configured correctly | 10:56 |
crackerjackz | Walex: well how do i figure out whats going on with my sound? how do i determin if its the driver or if its some config issue or something? | 10:56 |
egorchik007 | iceroot: so i want to install apache2.2-common back | 10:57 |
Walex | crackerjackz: use 'aplay -D plughw:0' to see if it works at the basic al | 10:57 |
crackerjackz | it stopped working after i updated everything | 10:57 |
iceroot | egorchik007: but you cant because apt-get/dpkg is first trying to fix the other issue | 10:57 |
egorchik007 | iceroot: but it can't | 10:57 |
egorchik007 | iceroot: well, i know that i'm an idiot. that's true. so what should i do? | 10:58 |
Walex | crackerjackz: it is quite difficult to figure out ALSA and PulseAudio for most people, if it doesn't "just work" then it is quite challenging. | 10:58 |
=== Bladerunner is now known as Bladerunn | ||
Walex | egorchik007: perhaps you could tell <iceroot> what you are trying to achieve, what you want the final state to be. | 10:59 |
iceroot | Walex: i know it already | 10:59 |
* Walex has missed that | 10:59 | |
crackerjackz | Walex: i didn't hear anything when i typed that command. when i open my mixer it mentions both alsa and pulse audio.. i think it was originally just using pulse audio.. i installed ubuntu on this computer using an old cd then upraded/updated | 10:59 |
crackerjackz | and the sound stopped working | 10:59 |
Walex | crackerjackz: you have to type that command with a sound file too | 11:00 |
crackerjackz | Walex: ooooh | 11:00 |
egorchik007 | Walex: first of all, i want to fix that dpkg error, that can't let me install any packets. (openssh-server is the most needed) | 11:00 |
vlad__ | dr_willis: Any more information I can provide ? | 11:00 |
egorchik007 | then i want to fix my apache2 | 11:00 |
iceroot | egorchik007: i would (dont say its the best method or that it is working) install apache2.2-common by hand with dpkg -i from here http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise-updates/apache2.2-common then remove that failing package because a2dismode exist then | 11:00 |
egorchik007 | it worked till 0:46, then i got sms that it's down | 11:00 |
egorchik007 | i tried to reinstall in differtent ways and then i've done some silly things | 11:01 |
iceroot | egorchik007: or you could remove the a2dismod line from the prerm script of that package and rerun the remove of that package | 11:01 |
egorchik007 | iceroot: will try now to wget that packet and install it manually | 11:01 |
Walex | or run the remove with a '--force' option IIRC | 11:01 |
iceroot | Walex: does it ignore errors from the prerm script? | 11:01 |
crackerjackz | Walex: i don't hear anything | 11:01 |
Walex | crackerjackz: that could be just because the mixer defaults to zero. | 11:02 |
crackerjackz | Walex: the sliders are all the way up tho | 11:02 |
Walex | crackerjackz: and what do those sliders control? | 11:02 |
crackerjackz | Walex: master and PCM | 11:03 |
crackerjackz | HDA Intel (alsa mixer) | 11:03 |
Walex | crackerjackz: run and put output in a pastebin of 'aplay -l; aplay -L; amixer' | 11:03 |
iceroot | egorchik007: in /var/lib/dpkg/info there should be a *.prerm file from this failing apache2 package | 11:04 |
iceroot | egorchik007: /var/lib/dpkg/info/libapache2-mod-rp.prerm | 11:05 |
iceroot | egorchik007: in that file uncomment all lines with a2enmod and a2dismod | 11:05 |
egorchik007 | iceroot: i've just downloaded the deb with packet. so what is better to do, install it manually or edit that script? | 11:05 |
iceroot | egorchik007: script | 11:05 |
egorchik007 | iceroot: ther is no such file | 11:06 |
iceroot | egorchik007: libapache2-mod-rpaf was the package which is failing? | 11:06 |
egorchik007 | iceroot: only ....rpaf.prerm | 11:07 |

jrib | sudo-apt-get: are you using nautilus? I seem to have that option | 12:15 |
iceroot | marcappuccino: yes if you convert them to mp3 or something like that | 12:15 |
MonkeyDust | marcappuccino FLAC is sort of equivalent of WAV, but FLAC can be flagged, WAV cannot | 12:15 |
iceroot | marcappuccino: its useless to compress flac, avi and some others with zip or something like that | 12:16 |
marcappuccino | so .tar archives are irrelevant the only way to reduce filesize is to compress to a lossy codec like mp3? | 12:16 |
iceroot | marcappuccino: comressing working great on text-based files but not something like flac or avi | 12:16 |
marcappuccino | (MonkeyDust iceroot) | 12:16 |
iceroot | marcappuccino: yes | 12:17 |
marcappuccino | Ah thanks. Can i ask why? | 12:17 |
iceroot | marcappuccino: what do you think why mp3 exist? because to compress something like wav/flac | 12:17 |
sudo-apt-get | jrib, that thing doent work fro pendrives. | 12:17 |
savio | mithran, use df -h command and paste output | 12:17 |
jrib | marcappuccino: FLAC is specifically designed for efficient packing of audio data, unlike general purpose lossless algorithms such as DEFLATE which is used in ZIP and gzip. While ZIP may compress a CD-quality audio file by 10–20%, FLAC achieves compression rates of 30–50% for most music. I imagine this is why... | 12:17 |
jrib | sudo-apt-get: what thing? | 12:18 |
sudo-apt-get | jrib, nautilus shift-delet | 12:18 |
jrib | sudo-apt-get: what happens when youtry? | 12:18 |
marcappuccino | I thought mp3 existed to not have to decompress to be able to play the media (iceroot) | 12:18 |
sudo-apt-get | goes into .trash | 12:18 |
iceroot | marcappuccino: yes thats another reason | 12:18 |

angs | I am using ubuntu 12.04. the name of my wireless interface changes frequently, e.g. it sometimes wlan0, sometimes wlan3, ... how can I fix it? | 12:48 |
dsenator | jrib, yes it works in my virtual box but I have an openGL issue in VB and cant use my 3d graphics software so I am about to remove the vb now, since the only reason I have it is for the 3d application, plus it slows my system down a lot | 12:49 |
savio | mithran, use "sudo mount -t hfsplus -o rw /dev/sdb2 /mnt | 12:49 |
dsenator | i wi ll try the winn instal | 12:49 |
mithran | savio: ok | 12:49 |
savio | mithran, a word from me if you mount with write enable data written by apple backup will not use if you change the content | 12:49 |
mithran | savio: ok http://paste.ubuntu.com/1401879/ | 12:51 |
mithran | savio: it shows like this | 12:52 |
savio | mithran, use sudo umount /dev/sdb2 first then command i gave you your data will be on /mnt after command success | 12:53 |
r_ironfist | once more: is there any way to tile windows in ubuntu's unity? | 12:55 |
mithran | savio: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1401901/ | 12:56 |
mithran | savio: is it over | 12:56 |
savio | mithran, use ls /mnt | 12:57 |
mithran | ok | 12:57 |
savio | mithran, and if there is content then you are done | 12:58 |
mithran | first ls /mnt | 12:58 |
savio | mithran, yup | 12:58 |
mithran | savio: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1401911/ | 13:00 |
mithran | savio: seems like this | 13:00 |
mithran | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1401911/ | 13:00 |
savio | mithran, use sudo ls /mnt | 13:01 |
k1l_ | no need for sudo. just use "ls -al /mnt" | 13:02 |
mithran | savio: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1401920/ | 13:03 |
mithran | savio: but the disk is not yet mounted | 13:04 |
savio | mithran, it is mounted in /mnt location | 13:04 |
mithran | savio: how can i copy that data to my system | 13:05 |
SPYGAME | hey, is anyone having issues using xchat connecting to freenode server, everytime i try to connect to freenode it gives me "network unreachable", other servers work fine | 13:05 |
mithran | seeing that i have no permission in mnt location | 13:06 |
savio | mithran, you want to copy that data then you no need to mount it as writable. you should tell me first. Now use " sudo umount /mnt " then remove hard drive and reconnect again | 13:07 |
mithran | savio: ok trying | 13:07 |
mithran | ok | 13:08 |
mithran | savio: ok don it | 13:08 |
mithran | savio: reconnected | 13:09 |
savio | mithran, now goto file manager and in Device tab you should see your hard drive | 13:09 |
mithran | savio: no cant find it | 13:10 |
savio | mithran, use ls /media | 13:10 |

ceriasNQZ | Hi everyone! | 13:12 |
robotti^ | tell me! is 12.10 notably more bloat than 12.04? | 13:13 |
robotti^ | because of animations on unity? | 13:13 |
savio | mithran, did you see the folder name start with APPLE ...... | 13:13 |
mithran | savio: APPLE Time Machine Backups | 13:13 |
mithran | savio: yas | 13:14 |
savio | mithran, that's your hard drive if you see the past you pasted you can get it | 13:14 |
OerHeks | robotti^, what do you want for an answer? | 13:14 |
savio | mithran, go there using file manager and copy everything | 13:14 |
Catbuntu | Animations on Quantal are better IMO | 13:14 |
Catbuntu | But when it was released Unity was buggy, is it still buggy on 12.10? | 13:15 |
savio | Catbuntu, unity is more mature now even better in 12.10 | 13:15 |
Catbuntu | Then I should upgrade, shouldn't I? | 13:15 |
rekoil | hello | 13:16 |

mithran | savio: but in medi file manager shows it as folder contend could not be displayed | 13:16 |
robotti^ | OerHeks: is it? or not? because I was planning to update to 12.10. but somebody tell me that 12.10 is slower | 13:16 |
rekoil | need some help installing ubuntu 12.10 on my 2012 macbook air | 13:16 |

spm_Draget | Is there a commandline way to list all manually installed packages? | 13:16 |
Catbuntu | I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 now... I use to use Unity, and sometimes gnome shell. | 13:16 |
rekoil | i want as clean an install as possible | 13:16 |
spm_Draget | I.e. without any dependencies. | 13:16 |
Catbuntu | I also have Xubuntu and Kubuntu 12.10 installed. | 13:17 |
rekoil | so i am most certainly not installing refit | 13:17 |
mithran | savio: what shall i do | 13:17 |
savio | Catbuntu, you can make your own decision | 13:17 |
Catbuntu | Do you recommend me upgrading? | 13:17 |
rekoil | but when i do a normal install, all i get when trying to boot is "missing operating system" | 13:17 |
OerHeks | robotti^, it is like kicking open doors, any newer ubuntu version is 'better' | 13:17 |
Catbuntu | meh | 13:17 |
rekoil | anyone know how to fix this? | 13:17 |
Catbuntu | And are the NVIDIA drivers issues fixed on Quantal? | 13:18 |
savio | mithran, use la command to see file inside your hard drive | 13:18 |
savio | mithran, ls* | 13:18 |
rekoil | any thoughts | 13:18 |
rekoil | it boots fine from efi when booting from the usb | 13:18 |
rekoil | but after installing it just will not boot | 13:18 |
spm_Draget | rekoil: Read a bit about UEFI and Boot-Settings. Your UEFI Bootloader (if it was instlaled correctly) needs to be configured to chainload grub. | 13:19 |
et_ | rekoil | 13:19 |
spm_Draget | Google for macbook and ubuntu and read over the parts talking about UEFI. | 13:19 |
rekoil | spm_Draget: i am using apples own bootloader | 13:19 |
et_ | what card are you using | 13:19 |
Eagleman7 | What does the file_mode and dir_mode part? /media/samba/mybooklive cifs credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0 | 13:20 |
rekoil | it is able to efi-boot the usb drive | 13:20 |
mithran | savio: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1401950/ | 13:20 |
savio | mithran, not like that you should go to /media then your hard drive | 13:21 |
savio | mithran, then use ls | 13:22 |
rekoil | spm_Draget: any tips? i mean its booting as it should when booting from usb, is post-install all that different from that? | 13:22 |
mithran | savio: please tell me the commands in order | 13:22 |
spm_Draget | I do not have a macbook and do not know anything about how to get uefi-grub into the macbook bootloade,r sorry. | 13:22 |
mithran | i will try them | 13:22 |
spm_Draget | Is there a commandline way to list all manually installed packages? (i.e. no dependencies) | 13:23 |
TakeItEZ | Eagleman7: they define what permission new created files/dirs on that share will have | 13:23 |
Eagleman7 | isnt the default umask better? | 13:23 |
rekoil | anyone here managed to install 12.10 on a macbook air? | 13:23 |
rekoil | or other macbook for that matter | 13:23 |
transmadrick | anybody free to chat about Transmission? | 13:26 |
TakeItEZ | Eagleman7: better than 777 in most cases, but that depends on your setup | 13:26 |
TakeItEZ | !anybody | transmadrick | 13:27 |
ubottu | transmadrick: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 13:27 |
Eagleman7 | and rsync/rsnapshot wont care about the file_mode= ? | 13:27 |
TakeItEZ | Eagleman7: they will care | 13:27 |
TakeItEZ | Eagleman7: you want rsnapshot to backup to cifs-shares? | 13:28 |
Eagleman7 | yes | 13:28 |
TakeItEZ | Eagleman7: can cifs preserver permissions? | 13:28 |
TakeItEZ | preserve* | 13:28 |
Eagleman7 | But i could also make a script to make a tar from the weekly.0 backup and then copy the tar to a cifs share | 13:28 |
Eagleman7 | I dont know if it can | 13:29 |
TakeItEZ | Eagleman7: test it and see if permissions/ownerships will be kept ok | 13:29 |
transmadrick | Okay, thanks ubottu. How can I make Transmission download to a specific subfolder. It only seems to allow top-level choics? | 13:29 |

Eagleman7 | So i have to use my tar trick | 13:36 |
christoffer | marianne, not sure but that is probably because those releases are no longer supported. If I remember correctly you can never upgrade to a release that has reached "end of life". | 13:37 |
christoffer | that is 11.04 that has reached end of life a month ago that was your first step from 10.10 | 13:37 |
marianne | christoffer: that's what I was thinking. I waited too long to get around to it | 13:38 |
christoffer | yea | 13:38 |
spupuser1 | When I try to install with wubi this error comes up, "the selected partition /var/lib/partman/devices/=dev=sda contains the following images /ubuntu/disks/root.disk". I tried deleting /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk and swap.disk (just in case) but the installer then will always ask for a chkdsk (which I performed) | 13:38 |
jrib | marianne: it's possible, you can /msg ubottu !eolupgrades if you are curious | 13:38 |

jrib | marianne: k | 13:41 |
spupuser1 | oh and I forgot to mention this is ubuntu 12.04 | 13:42 |
almoxarife | spupuser1: there are two parts to wubi, the exe and the iso, assume they are both trash, del the /ubuntu dir, uninstall wubi via win, and go from scratch, btw, the iso can be d/l via any means you choose, just insure its it the same dir as wubi.exe when you start wubi again | 13:43 |
spupuser1 | I did delete /ubuntu and did remove all traces of wubi including its %temp% files, this .iso worked previously but a recent md5 shows that it has been modified | 13:45 |
koen_ | spupuser1: did you open the iso an an archive manager, and save it? | 13:46 |

Guest19426 | help | 14:54 |
DaemonicApathy | Ok, quatar. Turns out the compat drivers listed in the main article don't support alx. You would have to use "compat-wireless-2012-05-09-p.tar.bz2" or "compat-wireless-2012-05-09-pc.tar.bz2" if you were to try the process again. | 14:54 |

Dandylion | zykotick9: I would like to use it with several computers, but also with selected tools and settings... How to make it "persistent"? | 16:30 |
RickZilla | K, I'll look at it, thanks | 16:31 |
gaby | jrib: this is the program Nuke6.1v1-linux-x86-release-64 | 16:31 |
zykotick9 | Dandylion: i never liked persistance... good luck. | 16:31 |
[snake] | is there an easy way to switch to 64 bit ubuntu 12.04? | 16:31 |
escott | [snake], reinstall | 16:31 |
Dandylion | zykotick9: why didnt you like it? Any particular reason/glitch? Where should I look for that feature to check it out? | 16:32 |
[snake] | escott, can I somehow save all my programs and have them re installed easily at least? | 16:32 |
zykotick9 | Dandylion: i think usb-creator might have the option? | 16:32 |
pazzie | badday, can you help me? | 16:32 |
quatar | Hi everybody... if somebody can help me understand my situation and fix something in dual-booting Win8 / Ubuntu with grub.(u)efi it would be appreciated :D | 16:32 |
Dandylion | zykotick9: ah, will check, thanks for the pointer! :-) | 16:32 |
zykotick9 | Dandylion: fyi, i'm unsure if programs get saved... | 16:33 |
escott | !clone | [snake] | 16:33 |
ubottu | [snake]: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » (this currently may cause problems with multiarch) - See also !automate | 16:33 |
jrib | gaby: if it isn't in the repositories, then you should: 1) look to see if the author provides a repository of his own for your ubuntu version (maybe a ppa?) 2) look to see if the author provides a .deb for your version of ubuntu 3) read its documentation on how to install it. There is no generic way to install a tar.gz. A tar.gz is just an archive of files. You must read its documentation (which is | 16:33 |
jrib | sometimes included inside the archive as README). See ubottu for generic instructions on installing software | 16:33 |

badday | pazzie: so it is xpress 1250, yeah? | 16:34 |
jrib | gaby: what do you have a question about? | 16:35 |
kristenbb | hi, whenever I boot my computer, I get an error window right after the ubuntu loading screen (and before logging in) saying "the system is running in low graphics mode. Your screen, graphic card, and input settings could not be detected correctly, you need to configure tthem yourself". And all I can do is reboot. What can I do ? | 16:35 |
[snake] | escott, what is multiarch? does that mean like what I'm doing from 32 bit to 64 bit? because it says it could potentially cause problems. | 16:36 |
jrib | [snake]: what ubuntu version are you on? | 16:36 |
[snake] | jrib, 12.04 32 bit | 16:36 |
escott | [snake], multiarch allows you to install i386 packages on x86_64 systems | 16:36 |
badday | pazzie: I need exact device name to help u | 16:37 |
zykotick9 | kristenbb: did it always do that? or only after you tried to install some video drivers? what graphics card? (ctrl+alt+f1 to get to TTY to login, then "lspci | grep -i vga" to show video card details. | 16:37 |
pazzie | badday, yes | 16:37 |
escott | [snake], so you would need to audit the generated list and remove any and all references to :i386 | 16:37 |
[snake] | escott, Ok, I think I'll give this a try. thanks. | 16:37 |
badday | pazzie: is it a notebook? | 16:37 |
kristenbb | zykotick9: yes only after I tried to install the driver, but that's the first thing I did when I installed ubuntu. The video card is nvidia gtx 680. | 16:38 |
gaby | jrib : i want to install this Nuke6.1v1-linux-x86-release-64 | 16:38 |
zykotick9 | kristenbb: did you use teh driver from nvidia.com or from ubuntu? | 16:38 |
ubuntuaddicted | does anyone know how to get photos videos off an iphone in ubuntu? | 16:38 |
pazzie | badday, yes, a compaq 6715b | 16:39 |
jrib | gaby: so what was the first thing I said you need to do? Check if the author provides a repository for it. I cannot do that as you have not linked me to where that software comes from | 16:39 |
kristenbb | zykotick9: I used the driver that was marked 'recommended' when the window showed up. | 16:39 |
pazzie | badday, amdx64 dual core, 4gb, 120 SSD | 16:39 |
zykotick9 | kristenbb: that's good! | 16:39 |
chris__ | Hi there does anyone here please know how I can change the background color of my folders in 12.04 | 16:39 |
kristenbb | zykotick9: well apparently not, I can't log into my computer... | 16:40 |
gaby | jrib: i dont know how to check it -thats why iam asking for step by step guiding | 16:40 |
chris__ | it used to be very simple in previous versions | 16:40 |
jrib | gaby: you need to say where this software is coming from...? | 16:40 |
badday | pazzie: if ur GPU appears here: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Legacy/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx?type=2.7&product=2.7.2.3.2&lang=English u can download the linux driver there | 16:40 |
chris__ | I have tried to use gconf-editor but there is no option to change the hex code | 16:40 |
badday | if u use 64bit OS | 16:40 |
IdleOne | jrib: from what I can see that software is not open source and not free. | 16:40 |
jrib | IdleOne: I see | 16:40 |
IdleOne | gaby: There are tons of forums explaining how to do what you want. This channel can't help you. | 16:41 |
gaby | jrib: please say it clear - step 1- where to go what to do .... iam not expert with linux at all | 16:42 |
zykotick9 | kristenbb: from a quick search online i see http://askubuntu.com/questions/147576/cant-install-gtx-680-drivers-on-12-04 which recommends installing the nvidia.com driver :( good luck, hope you find a better solution. | 16:42 |
jrib | gaby: step 1: say where you are getting the software from. | 16:42 |
jrib | gaby: I'm not sure how to be clearer. | 16:42 |
pazzie | okay badday i am downloading it, what do i need to do after the download is complete, like i said before i am new to linux | 16:42 |
gaby | jrib: what you mean where comes from .... i got it from some website | 16:42 |
jrib | gaby: say the website. | 16:42 |
k1l | gaby: ask the one, where you got that program. | 16:43 |
chris__ | Hi there does anyone here please know how I can change the background color of my folders in 12.04? | 16:43 |
zykotick9 | kristenbb: using xswat is probably better then nvidia.com driver... | 16:43 |
gaby | jrib: i got it from some website but some friend who got it and gave it to me .... the program is on my HD already | 16:44 |
gaby | jrib: where is the point of knowing the website ? | 16:44 |
k1l | gaby: to install a program or a game there are several ways. but we cant guess which way is for your software | 16:44 |
jrib | gaby: you need to ask the author if he provides a repository for ubuntu. You can check on the website. I asked you to do this, but you said you need clearer steps. So I was going to check myself if there is a repository. | 16:44 |

jrib | OerHeks: if http://www.thefoundry.co.uk/products/nuke/ is the software in question as OerHeks suggests, then your best course of action is to contact them about how to install the software you purchased | 16:45 |

jazzkutya | will there be nvidia-experimental-* packages for future driver releases from nvidia? | 16:51 |
IdleOne | jazzkutya: that would be up to nvidia. We don't know | 16:52 |
jazzkutya | this is the ubuntu packaged version | 16:52 |
yanick_ | Hi, will HDMI sound be supported at some point with the open source ATI driver (for a Radio HD 3xxx card) ? | 16:52 |
IdleOne | correct, but they can only be packaged if nvidia releases the code to the packagers. up to them. | 16:52 |
jazzkutya | considering i see almost latest version numbers with these packages i guess they do that | 16:53 |

xangua | ubuntuaddicted: are you using ubuntu 12.10¿ | 17:05 |

Dandylion | hi all, is it common that laptop mousepad "tapping" (instead of normal button clicking" is not supported out of the box with (most?) Live CD/DVD/USB (Ubuntu, Mint, ...) ? | 17:07 |

ubuntuaddicted | it shows up in dmesg as usb 1-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 | 17:08 |
xangua | ubuntuaddicted: well, your're likely gonna get nothing :) 12.10 supports iOS6 | 17:08 |
ubuntuaddicted | luckily i still have 1 win xp box in the house. | 17:08 |
ubuntuaddicted | xangua, does 12.04 support it? i like sticking with LTS releases | 17:09 |
escott | ubuntuaddicted, its a bit silly to expect a 2.5 year old OS to support a brand new phone | 17:09 |
Dandylion | re: startup persistence: even "list mode" is not remembered across boots, so which "settings" are stored if any at all? (Using LinuxMint13 right now) | 17:09 |
ubuntuaddicted | escott, true, thats' why i am asking. It is an LTS and supported till next april | 17:09 |
IdleOne | !mint | Dandylion | 17:09 |
ubottu | Dandylion: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 17:09 |
xangua | good for you, it's a never ending story ubuntuaddicted; even when you are using the latest ubuntu version when a iOS update is released the support will likely break | 17:09 |
escott | ubuntuaddicted, that means it get security updates until april | 17:09 |
=== sins-_d_i is now known as sins- | ||

killer | hi...is there a way i can replace the ubuntu icon with icon of my choice...in the unity laucher(the very first icon in launcher) | 17:10 |
escott | ubuntuaddicted, apple intentionally changes their wire protocols to keep people from using iphone with anything but itunes | 17:10 |
Dandylion | ubottu: It is based on ubuntu 12.04, and I use the usb-create-gtk, not sure if this is related specifically to linuxmint. Would be great if anyone can confirm that these things actually work on Ubuntu, then I will consider using that instead. | 17:11 |
IdleOne | ubuntuaddicted: I think what he meant was that the issues with supporting iOS is a never ending story. | 17:11 |
IdleOne | Dandylion: Mint is not supported in Ubuntu channels. ask the mint people | 17:11 |
ubuntuaddicted | IdleOne, ah, amkes sense | 17:12 |
ubuntuaddicted | are you aware if it works with 12.04? | 17:12 |
IdleOne | ubuntuaddicted: you could try a live cd of 12.04 and test | 17:12 |
ubuntuaddicted | IdleOne, that's my next step I guess | 17:13 |
ubuntuaddicted | thanks | 17:13 |
Dandylion | IdleOne: can you confirm if that is indeed working with Ubuntu 12.04? If it is a Mint issue, then perhaps I will use the Ubuntu distro instead. However, I suspect this is a general bug affecting both distros...? | 17:13 |
IdleOne | Dandylion: I haven't made a persistent USB in a long while but from what i remember it worked fine. make a live USB and test :) | 17:13 |

pazzie | i will make a pastebin | 17:15 |

richweskus | so im not so sure about all these legal issues etc | 17:19 |

rbnswartz | What is the correct prefix that I should use for compiling software I'm trying to fix a bug but can't seem to get my compiled version to replace the version that is already installed. Any help? | 17:38 |

bobweaver | rbnswartz, this is from a deb package ? | 17:40 |
rbnswartz | jrib Trying to compile and modify polkit-gnome dialog but can't get the version that I have compiled and installed to replace the one already installed. I'm assuming it isn't being installed in the right place hence the prefix | 17:40 |
Catbuntu | Tease? | 17:41 |
jrib | rbnswartz: probably the best way is to make your modifications to the source package, build a new package, then install it | 17:41 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver downloaded the source via apt-get source as I can't find a repo on launchpad. | 17:41 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, what is lang to compile ? | 17:41 |

Transfusion | hmmm. | 17:42 |
Orphis | Transfusion: It's ok ^^ | 17:42 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, you did dch -i , and also mkdir <source>build cd build then compile ? so that you can have clean area after build ? | 17:42 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, looking at source brb | 17:42 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver no I did not | 17:42 |

bobweaver | rbnswartz, man dch | 17:43 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver: the package that I'm using is policykit-1-gnome | 17:43 |

rbnswartz | bobweaver I was looking for that command yesteday thanks but couldn't find it. Thanks | 17:44 |
almoxarife | VIVID: 'they' did | 17:44 |

Transfusion | Orphis: I'm baffled. | 17:47 |
bobweaver | ok rbnswartz what file or bug are you fixing ? | 17:48 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver: there was a branch that was listed when I downloaded the source but it didn't contain any code that I could fine. I'll try this branch | 17:48 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, if you like I can walk you though | 17:48 |

Compaq_Owner | paste.ubuntu.com/1402654/ | 18:23 |
Compaq_Owner | I have an aspire one D270-1865 which came with windows 7, and I wanted to get rid of it and replace it with ubuntu. So, I followed the instructions to create a bootable usb with the ubuntu iso and booted it on the system. Everything went fine, and it said the installation was successful and for me to reboot. So I did and nothing happened, no windows or ubuntu. I booted the usb again to try... | 18:23 |
Compaq_Owner | ...and reinstall ubuntu but again nothing appeared. So I got out my old desktop and formatted the usb and put dban on it. Then wiped my useless system. Once it was wiped I formatted the usb again and recreated the ubuntu iso on it, and loaded it back onto the wiped PC, but only text appeared. | 18:23 |

bobweaver | rbnswartz, after alter could you plz pastebin the changes thanks ? | 18:23 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, maybe tell me the line # also that would help | 18:24 |

bobweaver | BLZbubba, you can see help options compiz --help | 18:26 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1402665/ and the changes are to some strings from 671 to 686 | 18:27 |

Compaq_Owner | were do i save iso to? | 18:46 |
ActionParsnip | Compaq_Owner: anywhere, it doesn't matter | 18:47 |
Compaq_Owner | how come the iso downloads at lower speed than other downloads? | 18:47 |
Noskcaj | bazhag: i turned the computer on, tryed restarting many times then launched xchat through terminal | 18:47 |
Compaq_Owner | my regular downloads download at around 300kb/s | 18:47 |

Noskcaj | ok | 18:48 |

cjae | bazhang: eg I keep having apps open on the wrong monitor | 18:48 |
bazhang | !torrents | Compaq_Owner | 18:48 |

Noskcaj | ant+f2 doesn't work | 18:49 |
Compaq_Owner | does it matter which? | 18:49 |

ccc | I stabbed my finger trying to make a soda can stirling engine | 18:50 |
RickZilla | This is more of a theoretical question, but how long can we expect to use a given distro version without upgrading? | 18:50 |
bazhang | ccc wrong channel | 18:51 |
gandsnut | Is there an IRC channel for ubuntu wireless networking? | 18:51 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, then go back to source or top dir | 18:51 |
bazhang | RickZilla, 18 months regular releases, 5 years starting with 12.04 LTS | 18:51 |
bazhang | !lts | RickZilla | 18:51 |
ubottu | RickZilla: 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) | 18:51 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver there | 18:51 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, I would like to tell you that there is a couple of options for dch like dch -a Adds too control dch -e is for editing | 18:52 |
RickZilla | So I just installed 12.10, it will go until April 2014? I can probably live with that | 18:52 |
Noskcaj | sorry for the big post ActionParsnip | 18:52 |
Noskcaj | RickZilla, upgrading pretty easy as well | 18:52 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, now because Launchad already has a source tar ball we DO NOT need to upload that with are fix :) | 18:52 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, so in top dir run debuild -S | 18:53 |
RickZilla | Noskcaj: k, I'll have to look into that...I don't mind installing and configuring stuff, I just don't want to have to do it all the time | 18:53 |
blno | hello. I'm making a rsync alias to copy a folder to a backup, and it seem to work. I use the options -rli. My problem is that every time I run it (even if there's no change), it outputs some changes (always the same). It says >f..T...... filename for a bunch of files. | 18:54 |
ActionParsnip | Noskcaj: ok, use that to see what that means online, or look for bugs | 18:54 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, as you will see this will compile and make everything that we need inorder to push it to LP . :) it will also run Lintian ! Lintian is great . It is also going to ask for your gpg and this is how we know that it was you that is making these changes :) | 18:54 |
marianne | Success! went from 10.04 to 12.04... didn't have to reload drivers for the Nvidia card either! | 18:54 |
soundconjurer | Has anyone successfully Dual Booted Ubuntu 12.04 with Windows 8? | 18:55 |
bobweaver | Sweet Deals marianne | 18:55 |
Noskcaj | ActionParsnip, ok | 18:55 |
MonkeyDust | !yay| marianne | 18:55 |
ubottu | marianne: Glad you made it! :-) | 18:55 |
Steph__ | I just installed ubuntu 12.10 and it outputs to the monitor fine, I connect to to my TV using hdmi and no output - any ideas? | 18:55 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver build failed got this output http://paste.ubuntu.com/1402740/ I assume I have a patch to apply? | 18:56 |
trism | blno: to a fat filesystem? if so you might need --modify-window=1 as an additional rsync option | 18:56 |
blno | trism: no, it's ntfs | 18:57 |
escott | Steph__, does the tv show up in displays when the hdmi is plugged in | 18:57 |
trism | blno: ahh, then I don't know, sorry | 18:57 |
Steph__ | no it doesn't | 18:57 |
bobweaver | Correct rbnswartz | 18:57 |
blno | trism: thanks anyway | 18:57 |
bobweaver | wait NO | 18:57 |
ActionParsnip | Steph__: what video chip do you use? | 18:57 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, pastebin full debian/control | 18:57 |
Steph__ | whatever is built into our motherboard intel dh67cf | 18:57 |
soundconjurer | Has anyone successfully installed Ubuntu 12.04 with Windows 8 with the UEFI successfully? | 18:58 |
bazhang | http://infectionsandmore.blogspot.tw/2012/04/dual-boot-windows-8-and-ubuntu-1204-my.html soundconjurer | 18:58 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1402748/ will this tell me where the patch is located? | 18:59 |
bobweaver | thanks no looking at version numbers . One should never add quilt(patch) if it is not there to start out with | 18:59 |
prashant_123456 | ActionParsnip, yes i have installed xfce on top of ubuntu 12.04 | 18:59 |
bazhang | http://www.linuxbsdos.com/2012/10/11/dual-boot-windows-7-and-ubuntu-12-04-on-a-pc-with-uefi-hardware/ soundconjurer should be similar to windows 8 | 19:00 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, also looking at debian dir myself brb | 19:00 |
escott | soundconjurer, im sure someone has. if you want to ask a specific question we might be able to help | 19:00 |
bazhang | prashant_123456, so follow the puregnome link I gave | 19:00 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, how about . debian/changlog | 19:00 |
bobweaver | thansk | 19:00 |
bobweaver | thanks * | 19:00 |
soundconjurer | I am just looking for a procedure... | 19:01 |
ActionParsnip | prashant_123456: then run: sudo apt-get --purge remove `dpkg -l | grep xfce | awk {'print $2'}`; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove | 19:01 |
bazhang | soundconjurer, I just gave you a link | 19:01 |
soundconjurer | I am reading it | 19:01 |
soundconjurer | Thanks | 19:01 |
ActionParsnip | soundconjurer: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ubuntu+uefi top link.... | 19:01 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver past that? | 19:01 |
rbnswartz | *Paste that? | 19:01 |
prashant_123456 | ActionParsnip, ok sir | 19:01 |
blno | ok, copying the modification date did the trick. I didn't want to do it because windows software doesn't, but I guess it works. | 19:02 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz see pm | 19:02 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver http://paste.ubuntu.com/1402755/ | 19:02 |
bobweaver | thanks | 19:02 |
marianne | my biggest problem was finding an empty CD-R to load the iso to... but I'm stoked (boyfriend thinks I'm nuts!) | 19:03 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, add the patch make sure in top source dir and run dpkg-source --commit | 19:03 |
prashant_123456 | ActionParsnip, and also how to remove lxde please | 19:04 |
ActionParsnip | marianne: nothing wrong with being happy and excited. Wallow in it :) | 19:04 |
bobweaver | !pureubuntu | 19:04 |
ubottu | If you want to remove all !Kubuntu packages or !Xubuntu packages and have a default !Ubuntu system, follow the instructions here: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/pureubuntu | 19:04 |
gandsnut | What's the root password for a fresh install of 12.10? | 19:04 |
ActionParsnip | prashant_123456: sudo apt-get --purge remove lxde lxpanel; sudo apt-get --purge autoremove | 19:04 |
bobweaver | !root | gandsnut | 19:04 |
ubottu | gandsnut: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 19:04 |
bazhang | gandsnut, there is none | 19:04 |
ActionParsnip | gandsnut: there isn't one | 19:04 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver: Any guidelines for the patch name? | 19:04 |
ActionParsnip | gandsnut: if you want a root terminal, run: sudo -i | 19:05 |
marianne | ActionParsnip: thanks... knew you guys would understand! also means I can put off buying a new laptop for at least another year...or more! | 19:05 |
bobweaver | yeah there is a ton make it like the change og | 19:05 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, ^^ | 19:05 |
gandsnut | Thx | 19:05 |
ActionParsnip | marianne: never a bad thing, people don't have so much money these days | 19:05 |
bobweaver | log * please paste (boy I hate quilt ) | 19:05 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver so pretty much copy and paste my entry from the changelog? | 19:06 |
ActionParsnip | gandsnut: if you need to run commands with root access, prefix the command with 'sudo', if it is a GUI app like gedit, use 'gksudo' | 19:06 |
bobweaver | yup | 19:06 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, let me see what you got before saving | 19:06 |
Steph__ | should i assume that 12.10 won't work with the intel dh67cf motherboard? that's why the hdmi won't work? | 19:07 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver http://paste.ubuntu.com/1402765/ I'm going to enter it exactly like that | 19:07 |
gandsnut | Trying 'su' in an xterm asks for a password. | 19:07 |
gandsnut | If there is no password, why is it asking? | 19:08 |
bazhang | gandsnut, dont use that | 19:08 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, take out the LP bug part | 19:08 |
escott | gandsnut, because you used the wrong command. never use su on ubuntu | 19:08 |
bazhang | gandsnut, please listen to what we just told you | 19:08 |
mega1 | is it possable to clear command history for a user | 19:08 |
gandsnut | bazhang: how might I access /var/log/messages w/o root permission? | 19:08 |
bobweaver | history --clear | 19:08 |
bobweaver | ?? | 19:08 |
bobweaver | history --help | 19:08 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver http://paste.ubuntu.com/1402767/ better? | 19:09 |
ActionParsnip | gandsnut: no, as there is no password | 19:09 |
bobweaver | yes rbnswartz | 19:09 |
mega1 | is it possable to change the name of the server | 19:09 |
escott | !hostname | mega1 | 19:09 |
ubottu | mega1: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hosts to include BOTH the old and new hostname and then change /etc/hostname to the new one. WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. | 19:09 |
ActionParsnip | gandsnut: the account is disabled for a whole bunch of reasons. You can still su to other accounts | 19:09 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver ok so committing that now | 19:09 |
ActionParsnip | gandsnut: your user can read the dmesg, it doesn't need root access | 19:10 |
ActionParsnip | gandsnut: there also isn't a /var/log/messages in Ubuntu | 19:10 |
bobweaver | cool rbnswartz then you can run debuild -S again | 19:11 |
prashant_123456 | ActionParsnip, lxde is still there no changes | 19:11 |
gandsnut | Sorry, referring to dmesg | 19:12 |
ActionParsnip | gandsnut: run: dmesg | less | 19:12 |
ActionParsnip | gandsnut: users can read dmesg, no need for root | 19:12 |
ActionParsnip | prashant_123456: try: dpkg -l | grep lxde do you get any output? | 19:12 |
gandsnut | Trying to troubleshoot why both TrendNet and Belkin USB wireless dongles will not authenticate on local wi-fi | 19:13 |
ActionParsnip | gandsnut: what wifi chip do they use? | 19:13 |
gandsnut | Looks like the TrendNet uses RTL8187 or some such | 19:13 |
prashant_123456 | ActionParsnip, yes i get output | 19:13 |
ActionParsnip | gandsnut: if they are usb, run: lsusb and search for the 8 character hex ID for the device | 19:13 |
macarnold | I want to resize my partitions without reinstalling. I have root, swap, and home, that order on hard drive. I want to increase size of root and swap. Would it be alright to delete home, then expand root and swap, and re-create home with saved data? | 19:14 |
gandsnut | ActionParsnip: thx, will do immed | 19:14 |
ActionParsnip | prashant_123456: then run: sudo apt-get --purge remove `dpkg -l | grep lxde | awk {'print $2'}` | 19:14 |
escott | macarnold, sure. you would have to update the uuid in fstab | 19:14 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver ok I got a text editor open on command completetion I assume I must describe my patch again? | 19:14 |
escott | !uuid | macarnold | 19:14 |
ubottu | macarnold: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 19:14 |
prashant_123456 | ActionParsnip, ok | 19:15 |
bobweaver | !screenshot | rbnswartz could you please take a screen shot ? | 19:15 |
ubottu | rbnswartz could you please take a screen shot ?: Screenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://imagebin.org/?page=add and post a link to it. | 19:15 |
gandsnut | actionParsnip: RTL8187B | 19:15 |
gandsnut | ActionParsnip, sorry, hex | 19:15 |
morfeo_81 | hi there | 19:15 |
escott | macarnold, another difficulty you will encounter is that the livecd will automatically swapon the swap partition. so you have to swapoff the swap partition delete the home and swap. grow root, add a new swap, add a new home | 19:15 |
macarnold | escott, yeah, I was wondering about issues with uuid. So is is essentially a matter of having the right uuid's in fstab? If so, then I could do this with a live gparted cd? | 19:15 |
ActionParsnip | gandsnut: tried this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/RealtekRTL8187b | 19:16 |
escott | macarnold, yes. you can (and must) do it all from the livecd | 19:16 |
morfeo_81 | How can create a hot spot for IPAD using ubuntu. If use create new wireless and shared connection I'm not able to connect | 19:16 |

escott | macarnold, too complete the high level instructions. after adding home and copying data back, you update fstab, then chroot in and update-initramfs (to get the fstab into the initram image -- you might be able to skip this step, but i would just go ahead and do it) | 19:18 |

Any idea? (on my previous 11.04 installation front microphone was fu | 19:21 |
escott | Steph__, and why do you say "ubuntu can't see the video chip" that is a very specific statement | 19:21 |

rbnswartz | bobweaver ok so I guess I need to give gpg my secret key. I used the gui in order to create it would that cause any problems? | 19:24 |

gandsnut | Can't seem to get out of entering passphrase and "Authentication required for wireless network" | 19:27 |
prashant_123456 | ActionParsnip, dpkg-query: no path found matching pattern *openbox-kde.desktop*. | 19:27 |
ActionParsnip | prashant_123456: try: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove | 19:27 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, open other terminal or new tab and cd ~/Desktop/build-area or where ever that is and mkdir diffs | 19:27 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver ok done | 19:27 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver and then copy the patch? | 19:28 |
Steph__ | escott, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1402817/ | 19:28 |
bobweaver | go to where src/polkitgnomeauthenticationdialog.c is | 19:28 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, ^^ | 19:28 |
escott | Steph__, .... so it can see the card? Why are you saying it cannot? | 19:28 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver got it | 19:28 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, then cp polkitgnomeauthenticationdialog.c ../../diffs/altered.c | 19:28 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, make sure that it goes to the right dir :) | 19:29 |
prashant_123456 | ActionParsnip, we recently uninstalled xubuntu from system but still at the login prompt i can see xubuntu login but when trying to login not able to login and i want to completely remove xubuntu from the login screen | 19:29 |
morfeo_81 | I don't understand because I have a ip and how can change it ? | 19:29 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, then go back to <buildarea> and mkdir temp | 19:29 |
ActionParsnip | prashant_123456: could just delete the session file :) | 19:29 |
prashant_123456 | ActionParsnip, how to do it | 19:30 |
ActionParsnip | prashant_123456: sudo rm /usr/share/xsessions/openbox-kde.desktop ...not obvious? | 19:31 |
escott | morfeo_81, thats not even a well formed question. networking is complex. you need to read the documentation and if you have questions about what the documentation is telling you then ask specific questions | 19:31 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver the build dir should be outside of the source tree correct? | 19:31 |
babalu | Hi everybody I can't get flash images on ubuntu 12 | 19:31 |
prashant_123456 | ActionParsnip, ok got it sir | 19:31 |
Steph__ | escott, my mistake. I couldn't see the chip in the sea of code. I am trying to update/reinstall the driver in case that is the reason nothing happens when I plug a display into the HDMI port | 19:32 |
Compaq_Owner | hey so i downloaded that iso torrent, now wat? | 19:32 |
prashant_123456 | what is the logout command in linux | 19:32 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, ~/Desktop/build-area/ should now have dirs for diff,temp, and all the other stuff from build | 19:32 |
ActionParsnip | !md5 | Compaq_Owner | 19:32 |

HTC-DZ | guys, how do i check how much disk space openarena <the game> is using? i cant find its installed folder | 19:33 |

Compaq_Owner | wats the link to the iso torrents? | 19:34 |
ActionParsnip | HTC-DZ: 45Mb + 5Mb = 50Mb | 19:34 |
prashant_123456 | ActionParsnip, and escott thanks for the help | 19:34 |
ActionParsnip | !torrents | 19:34 |
ubottu | Quantal can be torrented from http://torrent.ubuntu.com/simple/quantal/desktop/ubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://torrent.ubuntu.com/simple/quantal/server/ubuntu-12.10-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your needs.

Compaq_Owner | thnx | 19:34 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, ^^ is corrct | 19:34 |
Steph__ | escott, no it does not. It does not show up on the list of available displays from the display setting when it is connected. The TV was on. | 19:34 |
ActionParsnip | Compaq_Owner: why do you need the torrent if its finished downloading? | 19:34 |
mega1 | when i logon to the srver it has mega1@tech:~$ i want to change the tech | 19:34 |
Compaq_Owner | cuz the MD5 didnt match again | 19:35 |
HTC-DZ | action, where do i use that !info command? and i went to multiplayer and it downloaded a crap load of mods. thats why i wanna see how much space its eating up | 19:35 |
ActionParsnip | babalu: can you pastebin the output of: uname -a; lsb_release -a; dpkg -l | egrep'flash|gnash|swf|spark' | 19:35 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, know cd ../../diffs/ and ls there should be two files in there correct ? the altered.c and the new one or unaltered one correct ? | 19:35 |
bobweaver | now * | 19:35 |
Compaq_Owner | it STILL doesnt match??? | 19:35 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver yes that is correct | 19:35 |
zykotick9 | HTC-DZ: for downloaded content, check your home directory somewhere... | 19:35 |
ActionParsnip | Compaq_Owner: what is the hash you calculated? | 19:35 |
Compaq_Owner | 6c37b6b39d1c57385ce90aeb22a688e1 | 19:36 |
babalu | ok | 19:36 |
prashant_123456 | ActionParsnip, still having xubuntu session at login prompt | 19:36 |
prashant_123456 | ActionParsnip, how to remove it | 19:36 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver ok I have a patch generated | 19:36 |
babalu | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1402840/ | 19:36 |
ActionParsnip | Compaq_Owner: looks fine to me | 19:36 |
dr_willis | prashant_123456: theres a xubuntu.desktop file the defines what sessions are shown by the *DM managers | 19:36 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, diff -u altered.c polkitgnomeauthenticationdialog.c > fix .patch | 19:37 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver unless there was a diffrent usage of diff that I should have used | 19:37 |
ActionParsnip | HTC-DZ: check in /usr/share/games or in $HOME somewhere | 19:37 |
Compaq_Owner | wen i put it in winMs5sum it says | 19:37 |
Compaq_Owner | MD5 Check Sums are different | 19:37 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, go to launchpad page and upload that patch file as a attachment to the bug and you are done. | 19:37 |
ActionParsnip | babalu: what is the output of: dpkg -l | egrep 'flash|gnash|swf|spark' | 19:37 |
ActionParsnip | babalu: I missed a space, sorry | 19:37 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver redid the patch using the -u option | 19:38 |
=== serodr0nin is now known as serodronin | ||
bobweaver | rbnswartz, sorry about the debuild stuff just wanted to show you . | 19:38 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver I understand | 19:38 |
babalu | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1402848/ | 19:38 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver I really appreciate it didn't know what all of those tools did. | 19:39 |
ActionParsnip | babalu: wat browser(s) do you use? | 19:39 |
babalu | firefox but with cromium same I can't watch videos | 19:39 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, I hate quilt and will never understand it. I know why it is there. I am not sure as to why you gpg key is not working nor why it wanted a patch as version number changes should not ask for patch Oo maybe ActionParsnip can add to this he has moi moi karma on LP | 19:39 |
escott | !hostname | mega1 please read this | 19:40 |
ubottu | mega1 please read this: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hosts to include BOTH the old and new hostname and then change /etc/hostname to the new one. WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. | 19:40 |
bobweaver | maybe you made different tar ? not sure. | 19:40 |
prashant_123456 | dr_willis, ok now removed | 19:40 |
ActionParsnip | bobweaver: whats the issue? | 19:40 |
prashant_123456 | gnome-session-quit error ** (gnome-session-quit:4583): WARNING **: Failed to call logout: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files | 19:40 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, other way to do what you just did. is to bzr branch <branch> alter the branch and just re-upload | 19:41 |
bobweaver | ActionParsnip, package wanted to creat quilt patch even though version number was changed in changelog with dch -i | 19:41 |
ActionParsnip | bobweaver: never played with that dude, sorry | 19:42 |
bobweaver | ActionParsnip, I was trying to show rbnswartz how to use debuild :/ | 19:42 |
HTC-DZ | no luck. :( any idea where any downloaded apps get installed to by default from the ubuntu software center? | 19:42 |
trism | bobweaver: what's the error? | 19:42 |
MonkeyDust | HTC-DZ in /usr/bin/ | 19:42 |
prashant_123456 | cant logout using command gnome-session-logout | 19:42 |
dr_willis | HTC-DZ: the files for a packge go to whatever system dirs they need.. it depends on whats in the package. | 19:42 |
babalu | on firefox I put an addon for flash but still doesn't work or I don't know which one is best for this old pc | 19:43 |
dr_willis | HTC-DZ: the binaries normally go to the verions 'bin' dirs | 19:43 |
bobweaver | hey there Awesome sause other wise know as trism it was dpkg source error on build let me find paste | 19:43 |
dr_willis | HTC-DZ: you can use the package manager tools to see exactly what files are in a package and where they get installed to | 19:43 |
bobweaver | awesome formerly know as trism, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1402740/ | 19:43 |
bobweaver | version # was changed in d/changelog so not sure why it would need a quilt patch Oo << trism | 19:44 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver I added a comment to the bug. Thanks a bunch. | 19:44 |
trism | bobweaver: oh, dpkg-source --commit; should take care of creating the patch, or otherwise if the patch is already on top, just: quilt refresh; | 19:44 |
bobweaver | trism, thanks I can and never will understand quilt | 19:45 |
bobweaver | :) | 19:45 |
trism | bobweaver: takes some getting used to | 19:45 |
mega1 | how do i view all the hd on my server | 19:45 |
bobweaver | trism, also watch files and the regex that goes into them | 19:46 |
MonkeyDust | mega1 df -h | 19:46 |
ActionParsnip | mega1: sudo fdisk -l | 19:46 |
bobweaver | trism, like when get upstreamers are not using versioning # in there tar' s | 19:46 |
escott | mega1, sudo cat /dev/sd*; | 19:46 |
trism | bobweaver: never touch those myself either | 19:46 |
MonkeyDust | mega1 correction: try du -sh | 19:46 |
dr_willis | mega1: how aboyt you clarify what you mean... | 19:47 |
[4-tea-2] | Can anyone give me a hint how Ubuntu w/ Gnome asks for SSH keys? I'm loading a bunch of keys with ssh-add, yet Ubuntu/Gnome/whoever will still ask me to enter the passphrase for one of they keys that has already been loaded (upon the first SSH connection). | 19:47 |
babalu | ActionParnsnip could u please suggest me something to do? | 19:47 |
[4-tea-2] | I'd like a way to disable ^ that. | 19:48 |
mooriane | babalu: jerk off | 19:48 |
escott | dr_willis, taking all the fun out of trying to interpret his question | 19:48 |
dr_willis | escott: ;) | 19:48 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, you have read Ubuntu packaging guide and also debian new maintainers guide ? | 19:48 |
HTC-DZ | oh :D i found something quite cool. the app "disk usuage analyzer" did the trick :) open that app, scan home folder, it shows you exactly how much space each app is taking. click on the app, and it actually takes you to the installed folder directory. :) pretty cool stuff. | 19:48 |
babalu | mooriane jerk urself first | 19:48 |
bazhang | babalu, he's gone, move on | 19:48 |
dr_willis | HTC-DZ: its just showing folders.. ;) the fact theres an app in one.. dosent matter. ;p | 19:49 |
ActionParsnip | [4-tea-2]: did you tell the ssh server to not request passwords? | 19:49 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver I started to a while ago when I was working on a project for automated deb file creation to find out more of how things are packaged but I don't quite remember it all | 19:49 |
rbnswartz | bobweaver I'll be sure to read it. I still have the URL bookmarked I think | 19:49 |
[4-tea-2] | ActionParsnip: it's not asking for a password, but for the pass*phrase* for an already loaded (according to ssh-add -L) key. You know, the "secret" used to decrypt a locally stored ssh private key. | 19:50 |
rbnswartz | [4tea-2] how do I provide my secret key then? | 19:51 |
[4-tea-2] | rbnswartz: ? | 19:51 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/ http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/ http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/ | 19:51 |
HTC-DZ | dr willis, its showing what i was looking for which was the space of mods downloaded. :) which is what i was looking for. lol ay this is going to take a getting used to. :) | 19:52 |
rbnswartz | [4-tea-2] I was the person that this started with. How do I provide gpg with my secret key in order to sign things? | 19:52 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, also this is good https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/ | 19:52 |
RELOL | hi. Ubuntu 12.04 freezes after have pluged an MTP device | 19:53 |
dr_willis | HTC-DZ: err.. that wawsent anyway near the question i saw you asking. ;P | 19:53 |
bobweaver | rbnswartz, look at the help.launchpad for that | 19:53 |
RELOL | gvfs-gphoto2 60% cpu | 19:53 |
HTC-DZ | i really need to understand how this system works. from what i gather, anything you install goes into a "pool" and any new program doesnt re download whats in the "pool" instead it just uses it from there. correct? | 19:53 |
[4-tea-2] | rbnswartz: ActionParsnip responded to my, completely separate, question. Nothing to do with you. | 19:54 |
rbnswartz | [4-tea-2] ok then never mind | 19:54 |
mega1 | how do i fine out how big each partition is | 19:54 |
RELOL | DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. | 19:54 |
dr_willis | mega1: sudo fdisk -l | 19:55 |
HTC-DZ | willis, heres the orignal q. "guys, how do i check how much disk space openarena <the game> is using? i cant find its installed folder" my answer according to disk usage analyzer is 136MB. how is my q not answered? | 19:55 |
dr_willis | HTC-DZ: i saw you asking where speciifc things got installed.. | 19:55 |
dr_willis | HTC-DZ: the locate command is handy for finding things you have totally lost ;) | 19:56 |
escott | HTC-DZ, not everyone sees every question. but running dpkg through df and awk can get the answer | 19:56 |
HTC-DZ | willis, yes, coz according to windows, if you go to the folder where things are installed you find the size of the program. but this works differently i see. | 19:56 |
dr_willis | HTC-DZ: if you install stuff via the packagte manager tools the apps do not go into a single folder. | 19:57 |
dr_willis | come can, and put links to differnt locations.. but not all of them | 19:57 |
HTC-DZ | i know escott, im just clarifying myself to willis :) | 19:57 |
mega1 | would my hd show up if it was not formated | 19:57 |
dr_willis | mega1: you partion hard drives. then format the filesystems on the partions. | 19:58 |
dr_willis | mega1: fdisk shows the disks and how they are partioned. | 19:58 |
HTC-DZ | willis, i have gathered that now :) lol | 19:58 |
dr_willis | mega1: gparted can aso. | 19:58 |
escott | mega1, fdisk is pretty old and doesnt handle all partition types. sudo parted -l is preferred over sudo fdisk -l. | 19:59 |
* dr_willis is old skool | 19:59 | |
* dr_willis is old.... | 19:59 | |
HTC-DZ | is there a need for an antivirus software for ubuntu 12.04LTS and if so, which is a good free one to have? | 19:59 |
dr_willis | HTC-DZ: not really a need. unless you want to scan windows files | 20:00 |
escott | dr_willis, not to worry. there is always someone older, until there isn't. then you die | 20:00 |
dr_willis | actually thats about the only use for AV software on linux. ;) scanning your windows stuff | 20:00 |
mega1 | i cloned my hd onto a bigger one and after it said the linux was 32meg big and the unpartioned space was 32 just trying to format it | 20:00 |
escott | !antivirus | HTC-DZ | 20:00 |
ubottu | HTC-DZ: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 20:00 |
dr_willis | mega1: use gparted to 'resize' existing partions. or create new ones. | 20:00 |
mega1 | when i did fdisk -l it says i have 3 two are linux and the other is extended | 20:01 |
darkhalo117 | I've been looking through the grub2 configuration page on the community website. It tells me how to change my default OS but it doesn't tell me how to tell which menu entry win xp is. Any help? | 20:01 |

dr_willis | you kids and your fancy new commands... get off my lawn! ;P | 20:02 |
ActionParsnip | dr_willis: fdisk shows partitions as 'linux' parted shows them as 'ext4' | 20:02 |

k1l | newbie|8: take a look into the folder in your home and see if its owned by root. that is wrong it must be owned by your user | 20:05 |

newbie|8 | k1l: Could you give me the command to look in the folder? I'm a n00b | 20:06 |
escott | darkhalo117, the numbering is in order of how they are listed in the grub.cfg which is built by running /etc/grub.d in sequence | 20:06 |

yanick_ | Hi, will HDMI sound be supported at some point with the open source ATI driver (for a Radion HD 3xxx card) ? | 20:07 |

Compaq_Owner | how? | 20:07 |

ubottu | Compaq_Owner: For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions See also !nomodeset. | 20:07 |
newbie|8 | k1l: What answer to that will tell me the owner? I need to look at .amule, right? | 20:08 |
SonikkuAmerica | darkhalo117: One more note: If you want to change the boot order, the easiest way to do that is to head for /etc/grub.d/ (as root) and edit the number at the beginning of the title. | 20:08 |

HTC-DZ | guys, if i remove a game via the ubuntu software center does the mods for said game get deleted as well? or do i have to delete em separately somehow? | 20:09 |
darkhalo117 | Ok so lowest number boots first? | 20:09 |
k1l | newbie|8: the two lines where most times is your username. that is the line for owner and group_owner of the file/folder | 20:09 |
escott | HTC-DZ, manually | 20:09 |
SonikkuAmerica | darkhalo117: Correct | 20:10 |
ActionParsnip | HTC-DZ: depends where they are stored | 20:10 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: which nvidia gpu? | 20:10 |
krabador | hi people, i need help to reconfigure xorg | 20:10 |
newbie|8 | k1l: the command was ls -aL or -aI? | 20:10 |
HTC-DZ | how would i know if they removed automatically? | 20:10 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, I am not sure. Is there a way I can find out without opening the machine again? | 20:10 |
k1l | -aL | 20:10 |
SonikkuAmerica | darkhalo117: This is typically done when you want to put Windows in front of the other OS'es in GRUB2 | 20:10 |
SonikkuAmerica | Or another OS | 20:11 |
countley | is there a program for fashion design on ubuntu | 20:11 |
ActionParsnip | HTC-DZ: if they are stored in a subfolder in $HOME then it will still stand | 20:11 |
dr_willis | HTC-DZ: depends on how the mods got installed. If the files are in the users Home directory (custome maps and so forth that were instaleld by the user) then the software center will NOT touch files in the users home. | 20:11 |
mega1 | i tried gparted it says GtK-WARNING **: cannot open display | 20:11 |
newbie|8 | k1l: It tells me that I cannot access al, no such directory | 20:11 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: lspci | grep -i vga | 20:11 |
escott | dr_willis, it shouldnt be touching them even if they are in /usr/share/games if they aren't in the package manifest | 20:11 |
SonikkuAmerica | mega1: Is X11 enabled? | 20:11 |
HTC-DZ | oh, i see. that sucks lol | 20:11 |
DogP | I just extracted the rootfs of 13.04... can someone tell me what the default user/pass is? I can't seem to find it. | 20:11 |

mega1 | dont think so | 20:12 |
bazhang | DogP, there is none. #ubuntu+1 for 13.04 not here | 20:12 |
SonikkuAmerica | mega1: There's your problem. | 20:12 |
escott | HTC-DZ, the general rule of thumb is that removing things with apt only removes things that were installed by apt. if you download and install with some other tool its your responsibility | 20:12 |
DogP | bazhang: okay, thx | 20:12 |
mega1 | how do i enable it | 20:12 |
Steph__ | apparently the old "jiggle the handle" trick works for computers too because we finally out the display to output to the tv but new problem | 20:13 |
k1l | newbie|8: ? | 20:13 |
SonikkuAmerica | mega1: Do you have a GUI (Unity, KDE, etc.) installed? | 20:13 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: and if you run: apt-cache policy nvidia-current which version is installed? | 20:13 |
mega1 | not on the server | 20:13 |
newbie|8 | k1l: I had forgotten to do the - before the aL. This time around, the correct command tells me that .amule is under my personal access | 20:13 |
k1l | newbie|8: what are you typing? "ls -al" is what i suggested you to put in | 20:13 |
Compaq_Owner | !nomodeset | 20:13 |
new2linx | I've turned off dpms within the tv setup. | 20:13 |
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 | 20:13 |
Steph__ | the computer cannot see the wireless card when I type nm-tool into the terminal all the display information is about wired internet connections. Any idea how to fix that? | 20:14 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, Installed: 304.51.really.304.43-0ubuntu1 | 20:14 |
k1l | newbie|8: ok | 20:14 |
HTC-DZ | escott, i went in the app and went to ,mutliplayer and stuff downloaded. does that mean i have to delete those mods on my own? | 20:14 |
mega1 | i ma connecting using putty | 20:14 |
newbie|8 | k1l: The first time I did the aL, I had forgotten the "-" | 20:14 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: ok, so you have an ok driver. Do you get a low res? | 20:14 |
shallwe | hi guys, someone here using ubuntu 12.10 and virtualbox? | 20:14 |
SonikkuAmerica | mega1: OK that helps me big-time | 20:14 |
SonikkuAmerica | mega1: Do you have a program called Xming? | 20:14 |
shallwe | virtual box instaled in ubuntu 12.10 | 20:14 |
escott | HTC-DZ, yes. same as if you downloaded something in firefox. apt-get remove firefox should not delete everything you downloaded in the browser | 20:14 |
k1l | then type "amule" in the terminal. if the programm gets errors it should state them there. but dont close the terminal | 20:14 |
mega1 | no | 20:14 |
STF | hello guys, i am looking for a dhcp-server which i can configure this way, that i can use it to map 4 Public Ips to 4 virtualbox guests? | 20:14 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, no the res is correct as far as I can tell. What is happening is the audio is sometimes "fuzzy" like static and the image on the HD video gets this effect that I can only think of as tearing. | 20:15 |
STF | the vm guest are started in bridgemode | 20:15 |
SonikkuAmerica | mega1: Google it, download it onto your Windows computer, install it, and switch it on (kill PuTTY first) | 20:15 |
newbie|8 | k1l: Does this mean anything ... the directory "." is under me and the ".." is under root? | 20:15 |
mega1 | i have server 10.04 just ftp ssh were installed | 20:15 |
k1l | newbie|8: that is fine | 20:15 |
escott | new2linx, /home is always owned by root, as long as you own /home/username thats fine | 20:15 |
escott | newbie|8, ^^^ | 20:16 |

HTC-DZ | oh man :( so now how would i hunt down these add ons? and is the $home folder you referring to the icon below the start icon? | 20:16 |
escott | newbie|8, and ".." is up one directory, "." is the current directory (so probably /home/username) | 20:16 |
k1l | newbie|8: that is fine | 20:16 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: can you give the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh && ./alsa-info.sh --upload | 20:16 |
k1l | newbie|8: lets move on for the next step | 20:16 |
SonikkuAmerica | mega1: Hmm... You're using server 10.04 right now? | 20:16 |
escott | HTC-DZ, its almost certainly in $HOME/.program_name | 20:17 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, that was a neat trick. | 20:17 |
newbie|8 | k1l: I think I had screwed up before and someone told me to delete something and after that, it worked | 20:17 |

Sivik | anyone else have any video issues when playing any sort of video from a remote computer? avi or mkv format? | 20:17 |
escott | HTC-DZ, otherwise it would have to know how to get root privs to install the programs in /usr/share/games | 20:17 |
mega1 | yes | 20:17 |
Sivik | I'm getting a choppy line about 1/4 down from the top | 20:17 |
dr_willis | Sivik: sounds like video 'tearing' to me. | 20:18 |
Sivik | dr_willis, is that something caused by the video or the connection or the video playing? The videos play fine on my tv | 20:18 |
newbie|8 | k1l: Something like a *.dat or something like that | 20:18 |
dr_willis | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_tearing | 20:18 |
dr_willis | Sil4nc4: its the nature of videos dependign on how they get rendered | 20:18 |

mega1 | SonikkuAmerica: yes why is something wrong with it | 20:19 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: I imagine you are using HDMI audio | 20:19 |
dr_willis | Sivik: enabling vsync can get rid of it ive noticed. | 20:19 |
Sivik | Ok. | 20:19 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, yes. At least I would like to | 20:19 |
Sivik | Let me try doing that in the nvidia control panel. | 20:19 |
SonikkuAmerica | mega1: Pardon the delay... | 20:19 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: have you disabled the onboard sound in BIOS? | 20:19 |
battlecat | I can tell you ActionParsnip that I am using Clementine right now and the audio sounds fine. | 20:19 |
escott | zatan, that is 664 see !permissions | 20:20 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: ok that's cool | 20:20 |
SonikkuAmerica | mega1: Can you install stuff? | 20:20 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: what apps does the sound go funny? | 20:20 |
mega1 | yes | 20:20 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, VLC Parole MPlayer | 20:20 |
mega1 | SonikkuAmerica: yes | 20:20 |
SonikkuAmerica | mega1: OK, sudo apt-get -y install x11 | 20:20 |
HTC-DZ | ok i managed to find the .pk3 files. <if that helps> does removing those simply remove the add ons? | 20:21 |
battlecat | Playing Mp4 files from youtube ActionParsnip | 20:21 |

battlecat | ActionParsnip, No I have not. | 20:21 |

k1l | gandsnut: yes, you can select at the login | 20:21 |

cxclol | hello how can I unnistal programs by terminal? | 20:23 |
gandsnut | k1l: respectfully, I don't know where to look in this Unity | 20:23 |
k1l | newbie|8: im not familiar with amule in that case | 20:23 |
Sivik | sudo aptitude remove <programname> | 20:23 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: did you set a different video output method in VLC | 20:23 |
Sivik | or sudo apt-get remove <programname> | 20:23 |
Sivik | !apt | 20:23 |
ubottu | APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Muon (KDE) or !Apper (KDE) | 20:23 |
cxclol | thank you | 20:24 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, I have found them but have no idea what to change them to | 20:24 |
k1l | gandsnut: you can install synaptic | 20:24 |
Sivik | cxclol, man pages are your friends. ;) | 20:24 |
k1l | gandsnut: if you are familiar with it | 20:24 |
newbie|8 | k1l: I'm going to try that ... ActionParsnip, do you see any problem with that? | 20:24 |
DJones | !aptitude | Sivik I don't think I would use aptitude any more, | 20:24 |
ubottu | Sivik I don't think I would use aptitude any more,: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. You may encounter problems on multiarch installs (11.10 and higher) as aptitude cannot currently handle the same package with different architectures being installed at the same time. See http://pad.lv/831768 for more information. | 20:24 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: Video tab under preferences..... | 20:24 |
Sivik | DJones, thats why I gave him the option | 20:24 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: what have you tried doing to resolve this....? | 20:24 |
gandsnut | k1l: well, I don't mind learning the new environment, can you give a suggestion where to look to see what desktops are installed? | 20:25 |
newbie|8 | ActionParsnip: Do you see any problem with me deleting a file "statistics.dat" in my amule to restart the program | 20:25 |
battlecat | LOL I have played around changing settings but well I dont get any results. Do I need to change and exit or just change the setting | 20:25 |
dr_willis | Sivik: you may want to use the 'ccsm' tool and see if 'sync to vblank' is enabled. I thought it was turned on by default. that seems to help my systems. | 20:25 |
DJones | Sivik: Yeah, I realise that, just thought it was putting the link in channel for others to reference as well | 20:25 |
k1l | gandsnut: a package system you want: softwarecenter, synaptic, apt-get etc etc etc | 20:25 |
Sivik | that works. | 20:25 |
ActionParsnip | newbie|8: could rename te file instead, less destructive | 20:25 |
ftruzzi | Hi, I have an arch installation and my home folder is in a separate hard drive. Can I make a fresh install of ubuntu using that home partition? | 20:25 |
k1l | gandsnut: or just log out and see what you can choose in the login screen | 20:26 |
Sivik | !ccsm | 20:26 |
ubottu | To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' (or 'simple-ccsm' for pre-Oneiric). If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz | 20:26 |
gandsnut | k1l: will try, thanks | 20:26 |
newbie|8 | ActionParsnip: I put it in the trash, but that didn't change anything | 20:26 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, no worries about it. Thank you for your time and help | 20:26 |
dr_willis | Sivik: i also have a similer setting on my Nvidia Control panel tool for my nvidia systems | 20:26 |
Sivik | are you using the nvidia-settings program? | 20:26 |
CowokAsyik | hmmm | 20:27 |
dr_willis | both are enabled Sivik | 20:27 |
Sivik | dr_willis, for nvidia, is it the vsync blinking thing? | 20:27 |
dr_willis | then theres differnt vlc video filters you could enable. ;) but ive rarey needed that. | 20:27 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: try changing it to X11, see how it goes | 20:27 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, ok will do | 20:28 |
mega1 | what is x11 | 20:28 |
dr_willis | Nvidia Settings -> open gl -> Sync to Vblank | 20:28 |

Sivik | dr_willis, does x have to be restarted to see the change? | 20:28 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, Well I guess other than downloading a few test videos and changing basic settings in the preferences not a whole lot. I am not a programer | 20:28 |
dr_willis | Sivik: not that i know of. | 20:29 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: you don't have to be a programmer. | 20:29 |
Sivik | dr_willis, thats weird, I guess i'm going to have to do something in that ccsm. | 20:29 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: I'm not.... | 20:29 |
battlecat | I am thinking that I will go back to Mint since that worked out of the box so to say. I do appreciate your time though. | 20:29 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: why would you need to be? | 20:29 |
dr_willis | Sivik: you did click the apply button ;) | 20:29 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: the exact same options for VLC are in Windows, do you need to be a programmer there too/ | 20:29 |
Sivik | dr_willis, did the save to x configuration file | 20:30 |
dr_willis | Sivik: that WOULD require an X restart then | 20:30 |
Sivik | dr_willis, I don't have an apply button | 20:30 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, here is something strange the Youtube video when watched in Firefox are fine but not when watched in VLC. I dont use windows lol I have a mac and a linux box | 20:30 |
Sivik | dr_willis, doesn't do it for local videos but does for network videos, would that make a difference? | 20:31 |
darkhalo117 | Would "30_os-prober" be indicative of a windows boot in grub2? | 20:31 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: same VLC options are in MacOS...do you need to be a programmer there too? | 20:31 |
battlecat | No MAC just works | 20:31 |
dr_willis | Sivik: hve never noticed the network mattering.. unless its real High def videos. | 20:31 |
battlecat | lol | 20:31 |
escott | darkhalo117, yes | 20:31 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: so what relevance does "I am not a programer" have, to anything in your situation? | 20:31 |
Sivik | hum. | 20:31 |
dr_willis | Sivik: could be its how the videos are getting streamed over the network also. | 20:31 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, I do not want to get into editing text files and all that. | 20:32 |
dr_willis | Text files are scary! ;) | 20:32 |
SolarisBoy | word | 20:32 |
Sivik | dr_willis, maybe but I know its not a thru-put issue. Its a 1 gbps network connection between the two computers | 20:32 |
battlecat | Is there a way to turn off something called compositing if I have it on? | 20:32 |
battlecat | found awebpage | 20:32 |
escott | darkhalo117, the other thing you can try is /etc/default/grub the one downside to renaming 30 to 09 is if those scripts get updated yours wont | 20:32 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: you're not, you are changing config via a GUI. Edittin a text file does not constitute programming | 20:32 |
dr_willis | battlecat: that will disable a lot of the video effects/eyecandy | 20:32 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: if you've fixed as many macs as I have. you'd know they don't just work | 20:32 |
Sivik | dr_willis, could be the fact its 1080 video. | 20:33 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, Im sorry I dont agree. I work at a university and no one ever complains about MACs but the students complain about windows lol. | 20:33 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: try installing xfce4, log off and log in to the xfce session and try there | 20:33 |
battlecat | dr_willis, I would like to do that then. | 20:33 |
dr_willis | Sivik: i rarely have any 1080p videos so No idea on that. | 20:33 |
battlecat | ActionParsnip, I am in XFCE. | 20:33 |
darkhalo117 | After I make these changes, do I need to run sudo update-grub? | 20:33 |
Sivik | dr_willis, thanks for your input | 20:33 |
dr_willis | battlecat: it may be beter if you clarify exactly what you are trying to do wna dwhy. | 20:33 |
SillyMe | battlecat, what are you trying to do again? | 20:34 |
battlecat | ah back to Linux Mint. | 20:34 |
battlecat | Thanks guys. | 20:34 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: I have Linux servers with upwards of 3 years uptime, and Windows SQL servers with similar | 20:34 |
dr_willis | Sivik: vlc has differnt filters that may help also. I tend to only watch anime. :) so action movies and so forth may be differnt | 20:34 |
SillyMe | battlecat, if you don't like editing text files, you wouldn't like slackware :) | 20:34 |
Sivik | dr_willis, yea, i'm watching fringe in VLC and its doing it. but it is 1080 | 20:35 |
ActionParsnip | battlecat: editting text files isn't programming, just so you know | 20:35 |
escott | darkhalo117, yes | 20:35 |
dr_willis | flash is acting weird.. so i will go use mint... logical.. | 20:35 |

escott | protos, and be careful of the difference between tee and tee -a. tee is like >. tee -a is like >> | 20:45 |
dr_willis | RELOL: actually ive seen guides on getting MTP working. Ive done it befor. but these days i tend to just use wifi to get stuff back/forth to my phones | 20:45 |
escott | darkhalo117, paid. please send us your CC number when you are done :-P | 20:45 |

darkhalo117 | I'll buy a t-shirt from the store haha | 20:47 |
dr_willis | I recall following this site once - not sure if its still needed for 12.10 http://ubuntu.mylifeunix.org/2012/05/29/how-to-connect-android-smartphone-ice-cream-sandwich-to-ubuntu-to-browse-files-and-for-file-access/ | 20:47 |
DogP | is there an OMAP3 build of ubuntu desktop 12.10? I'm only seeing the OMAP4, but the wiki talks about it for the OMAP3 as well: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/OmapDesktopInstall | 20:48 |

Kazfd | Anyone know how to make a restore script in bash? trying to restore it from a file manifest. #BASH is unresponsive. :( | 20:49 |
escott | Kazfd, restore what? | 20:49 |
du_ | ActionParsnip: At first I had kubuntu 10.10 until Nov 2012 online in action, upgrade to 11.04 now! :-) | 20:49 |
SonikkuAmerica | du_: You'll want to upgrade to at least 11.10 | 20:50 |
Kazfd | escott: Restores a file to it's original location. Like the recycle bin in Windows, if something is deleted, the script will restore it to its original location. | 20:50 |
bazhang | du_, 11.04 is end of life as well | 20:50 |
darkhalo117 | Much appreciated, escott. Do you guys know when the Ubuntu for Android is going to be released? I saw the youtube video and it was pretty cool! | 20:50 |
* SonikkuAmerica nods to bazhang | 20:50 | |
escott | darkhalo117, best guess is thats going to have to be sold with specific devices. they may make a development release for people willing to reflash systems, but flashing systems is not something you want just any random Joe doing | 20:51 |
escott | Kazfd, i would check FDO (freedesktop.org) and see if there is a command line tool written for that. | 20:52 |
darkhalo117 | True statement | 20:52 |
Kazfd | escott: I need to create it myself. Already looked around for the bash code and haven't found anything. | 20:52 |
ActionParsnip | du_: i'd just clean install Precise. | 20:52 |
escott | Kazfd, but things like "rm" do not go to any kind of "trash can" its just gone | 20:53 |
du_ | SonikkuAmerica: I think you know;" Never change a winning horse!" :-) | 20:53 |
cc_INC | du_ unless it's EOL :) | 20:53 |
Kazfd | escott: I know. I created a delete script that moves to a separate location. However, I am stumped on how it's to restore to an original location. | 20:54 |
escott | Kazfd, well when you move it you need to log the location somehow. i would look at how freedesktop.org specifies that is to be done and follow their format | 20:54 |
SillyMe | I suppose of there were some final entry point for file deletions in the OS, you might be able to hook it? | 20:54 |

Guest28487 | hello escott | 20:56 |
Kazfd | escott: Before a file is deleted, I log it in a manifest log that I created. | 20:56 |
ex0a | is it possible to add a 3rd party repository during expert install or should i just wait until i boot into the system the first time? | 20:56 |
Guest28487 | how are you | 20:56 |
Guest28487 | bye bye | 20:57 |
escott | Kazfd, i would recommend you use the FDO standard whatever that is. but at the end of the day you have to parse your log and figure out the restore location and move it back | 20:57 |
SillyMe | what would Kazfd do if the file had been recreated in between? | 20:58 |
otend1 | is there any way to make the last number of a local IP static without affecting the others? | 20:58 |
escott | SillyMe, you are just overthinking things. that will never happen | 20:59 |
Kazfd | otend1: Without affecting the others? | 20:59 |
otend1 | as in, the three other numbers | 20:59 |
escott | otend1, no. not possible | 20:59 |

invariant | roezer, Linux has Cinerella, but otherwise :/ | 21:36 |
roezer | yea it's a bummer dr wilis am looking at kxstudio | 21:37 |
ThinkT510 | roezer: openshot is a good video editor | 21:37 |
dr_willis | video editing is a big area with a lot of tools.. but it depends on what sort of editing you want to do | 21:37 |
bobweaver | dr_willis, there is a curve on that but not distros that have money. and are registered in certian areas | 21:37 |
invariant | roezer, you should first select a video editor and then an OS, I suppose. | 21:37 |
bobweaver | nvidia ^^ | 21:37 |
roezer | think t510 still it crashes too often and causes a jamming sound in some vids | 21:37 |
dr_willis | bobweaver: then ya got the small guys that just toss it in anyway ;) | 21:37 |
bobweaver | dr_willis, hence how minty things are | 21:38 |
bobweaver | ireland | 21:38 |
invariant | roezer, geeks generally cared more for text editors and compilers, which is the reason you don't see a lot of those free tools. | 21:38 |
ThinkT510 | roezer: i've never had a jamming sound but yeah it has crashed for me too, i just save often with it | 21:39 |
invariant | roezer, Cinerella has been used professionally, AFAIK. | 21:39 |
bobweaver | not the uk and backer is not million dollar man | 21:39 |
invariant | roezer, it does require a beast of a machine and a competent computer user. | 21:39 |
roezer | Take shotwell for example it imports images puts them into date based floders | 21:39 |
anunakki | frankt, http://i.imgur.com/NJLtU.jpg mind you that is freebsd/fluxbox/cairo-dock but i'm working on a vm with ubuntu/openbox/cairo-dock at the moment and i want to say it looks 100x better running cairo-dock in ubuntu than it does freebsd | 21:39 |
anunakki | much more you can do | 21:39 |
gordonjcp | I've never managed to get shotwell to work | 21:40 |
roezer | I just copy my images into a folder upload what I need and delete the rest dont need those dates | 21:40 |
invariant | gordonjcp, I did. | 21:40 |
invariant | gordonjcp, I even got old versions to work. | 21:40 |
Argure | yay, ipv6 works. | 21:40 |
searching | I removed flashplayer 11.x.x.x and I have a .deb file with flashplayer 10.2.159 and it is installing same 11.x.x.x | 21:40 |

gordonjcp | invariant: I plug my camera in, after a few minutes it eventually shows me a window with lots of tiny thumbnails, and that's it | 21:41 |
invariant | I think if you are a video engineer, that you should probably just write your own video software. | 21:41 |
invariant | If you actually understand what you are doing, that's essentially what it would come down to. | 21:41 |
roezer | invariant was looking at Cinerella but had a kde based system | 21:41 |
gordonjcp | bobweaver: none of that makes sense to me | 21:41 |
invariant | roezer, how would that be relevant? | 21:41 |
SonikkuAmerica | I was just about to ask the same thing | 21:42 |
gordonjcp | bobweaver: I just want to open the directory on the camera, and look at the images in an image viewer | 21:42 |
levi_ | hey some one i seem to have 2 acconts on here how do i swithc back to angelpossum | 21:42 |
invariant | roezer, you can run any X application. | 21:42 |
gordonjcp | bobweaver: I really want to get rid of the stupid "open this folder in shotwell" bar | 21:42 |
invariant | roezer, KDE is built on top of X, just like GTK+ is. | 21:42 |
invariant | roezer, there is a slightly more complex structure on some websites explaining the relationship in more detail. | 21:42 |
roezer | invariant so it's loading another wm | 21:43 |
levi_ | hello | 21:43 |
invariant | roezer, no, it is not. | 21:43 |
bobweaver | gordonjcp, then set the default things to what yoou want ... wait are you using unity ? | 21:43 |
roezer | like xfce loads gnome | 21:43 |
ThinkT510 | roezer: no | 21:43 |
gordonjcp | bobweaver: yes | 21:43 |
invariant | roezer, you have no idea about how things work. | 21:43 |
invariant | roezer, before complaining, you should first learn how things do work. | 21:43 |
gordonjcp | bobweaver: I might just uninstall rhythmbox and shotwell, since I never use them and they don't work properly | 21:43 |
levi_ | hey some one i seem to have 2 acconts on here how do i swithc back to angelpossum | 21:43 |
invariant | roezer, it's not like the Internet isn't full of free information on how things work. | 21:44 |
dr_willis | levi_: /nick yourothernick | 21:44 |
ThinkT510 | roezer: there can only be one window manager working at any one time | 21:44 |
roezer | invariant I manage to get them working most of the ime anyway :) | 21:44 |
levi_ | i need help | 21:44 |
invariant | roezer, that's good, but you can just run cinerella on whatever you are doing, but, like I said, it requires some serious skill to use. | 21:44 |
bobweaver | gordonjcp, you have open unity dash and typed in "details " and open that ? | 21:44 |
levi_ | didnt work i clicked my self on this bar-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> | 21:45 |
bobweaver | gordonjcp, then go to default apps you can set weth you want from there | 21:45 |
bobweaver | reads over dbus | 21:45 |
gordonjcp | bobweaver: yeah, that's not what I was talking about at all | 21:46 |
invariant | http://www.heroinewarrior.com/cinelerra_shots.php | 21:46 |
invariant | Cinerella looks quite alive and kicking from here. | 21:46 |
bobweaver | lol gordonjcp then what are you talking about | 21:46 |
invariant | I never did anything remotely complex with it, however. | 21:46 |
=== ubuntu is now known as Guest47682 | ||
drecute | is it compulsory I install Kerberos in order to join to an active directory (samba) | 21:47 |
gordonjcp | bobweaver: if I plug my camera in and browse to its directory with nautilus, there's a whacking great bar about an inch high that says "OPEN THIS FOLDER IN NAUTILUS" | 21:47 |
levi_ | how do i get to default apps | 21:47 |
=== Youri is now known as YBook | ||
gordonjcp | sorry, not nautilus, shotwell | 21:47 |
bobweaver | gordonjcp, screenshot ? | 21:47 |
roezer | invariant will try Cinerella in a new ubuntu studio install and work from there | 21:48 |
gordonjcp | bobweaver: what's *really* annoying is that if I plug my phone in there are two bars, taking up a lot of the window, one for rhythmbox and one for shotwell | 21:48 |
BKTech86 | hi! I would like to add my bluetooth headphones to the alsa list of devices in Precise. Can anyone point me in the right direction? thanks! | 21:48 |
levi_ | gordonjcp:me | 21:48 |
bobweaver | !screenshot | gordonjcp would you like to take a screen shot to show this off ? | 21:48 |

levi_ | will some one help me | 21:48 |
gordonjcp | bobweaver: christ on a bike, be patient | 21:48 |
gordonjcp | yes, I'll get a screenshot | 21:49 |
gordonjcp | I know perfectly well how to get a screenshot | 21:49 |
bobweaver | levi_, open dash type in details open it and go to default apps | 21:49 |
gordonjcp | first I have to plug either the camera or the phone in | 21:49 |
Guest47682 | hi everyone, i need some help. i have a raid 0 set up with 3 hard drives. in that raid 0 setup i partitioned about 75% of the disk space to a windows installation and about 300 gb are not formatted. i'm in the ubuntu live cd right now and would like to format that 300 gb to an ubuntu format and then install ubuntu on the 300gb. gparted doesnt detect the 3 hard drives to be in a raid 0 configuration, even with kparted addon installed. | 21:49 |
Guest47682 | i tried to install ubuntu already and the installation failed. the installation said ubuntu has experience an internal error; title: ubiquity crashed with KeyError in plugin_on_next_clicked(): 'use_device' executable path /usr/lib/ubiquity/bin/ubiquity | 21:49 |
gordonjcp | settle down, dude | 21:49 |
bobweaver | gordonjcp, sorrry | 21:49 |
escott | Guest47682, what raid controller | 21:50 |
BKTech86 | does anyone know how to add audio devices to alsa in precise? | 21:50 |
levi_ | sorrythanks | 21:50 |
invariant | roezer, why would you do a new install? | 21:51 |
gordonjcp | bobweaver: http://www.gjcp.net/~gordonjcp/nautilus.jpg | 21:51 |
gordonjcp | BKTech86: plug them in, and they are detected | 21:51 |
gordonjcp | BKTech86: What exactly are you trying to do? | 21:51 |
Guest47682 | i have the Asus P8Z77-V Pro. would that be the Z77 chipset? | 21:51 |
BKTech86 | gordonjcp: I'm trying to use them in audio editing software | 21:51 |
escott | !fakeraid | Guest47682 | 21:51 |
ubottu | Guest47682: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 21:51 |
BKTech86 | gordonjcp: but according to `aplay -l` they are not detected | 21:51 |
invariant | roezer, you can install studio, edubuntu, ubuntu, kubuntu, etc. all at the same time. | 21:52 |
BKTech86 | gordonjcp: for other sound applications they work fine | 21:52 |
escott | Guest47682, long and short is that what you have is not raid, probably wont work, and is not worth your time | 21:52 |
gordonjcp | BKTech86: what is it? | 21:52 |
Anternat | hi i have 10.04 server which i can only use ssh to access. I have lost access although it stays in the network when powered on.(Neither by hostname nor by ip). Happened after i did an install about security camera software. what are my options to gain access again? | 21:52 |
BKTech86 | gordonjcp: what is what? | 21:52 |
gordonjcp | BKTech86: the sound device | 21:52 |
BKTech86 | gordonjcp: a bluetooth headset | 21:52 |
gordonjcp | BKTech86: ah, I've never successfuly got one of those working | 21:53 |
BKTech86 | gordonjcp: it works | 21:53 |
gordonjcp | BKTech86: yeah, you've had more luck with bluetooth than me | 21:53 |
escott | Anternat, console access | 21:53 |
gordonjcp | I have a bluetooth earpiece that works with my PS3 but nothing else, and I've no idea why not | 21:53 |
BKTech86 | gordonjcp: haha .. i dont understand why they made it such an iffy technology | 21:53 |
bobweaver | gordonjcp, I see wht you are saying now maybe there is dbus setting ? | 21:54 |
BKTech86 | gordonjcp: you're familiar with the visibility/pairing process? | 21:54 |
gordonjcp | BKTech86: *extremely* familiar | 21:54 |
BKTech86 | Anyone an alsa expert? | 21:54 |
gordonjcp | BKTech86: more so than I could ever wish to be | 21:54 |
BKTech86 | gordonjcp: once you've gotten it to work, it's actually extremely convenient | 21:55 |
Anternat | escott it is a standolone pc, no kb, no monitor, only the network cable connected to my modem port | 21:55 |
BKTech86 | any idea how i might be able to get this device to show up in the alsa list? | 21:55 |
BKTech86 | that why i can explicitly request it in my audio editing program? | 21:55 |
escott | Anternat, then buy a keyboard and monitor | 21:55 |
funkt | Hi there I just posted a question about getting bottom bar in unity to show folders etc I am still trying achieve this if anyone has any ideas this is what I am trying achieve http://i.stack.imgur.com/15F2g.jpg | 21:56 |
Anternat | what else can i do ? | 21:56 |
dr_willis | funkt: looks like a frankenstein combo of gnome-classic running unity side panel. | 21:56 |
escott | Anternat, yank the drive | 21:56 |
bobweaver | gordonjcp, what is org.gnome.desktop.media-handling | 21:56 |
funkt | thats the one" | 21:56 |
funkt | I love it! | 21:56 |
funkt | any ideas? | 21:57 |
bobweaver | gordonjcp, do you have dconf-tools installed ? | 21:57 |
dr_willis | funkt: use the various docks we reccomended.. they are very configurable | 21:57 |
funkt | I wish i knew how to do that | 21:57 |
dr_willis | install awn, use its themes | 21:57 |
funkt | i tried cairo and that just gave me a docky thing with all my applications | 21:57 |
OerHeks | gordonjcp, i understand you want your camera open a specific program, i think that could be done with udev rules > http://www.linuxforu.com/2012/06/some-nifty-udev-rules-and-examples/ | 21:57 |
gordonjcp | bobweaver: hm, removing rhythmbox now makes it want to open in VLC | 21:58 |
dr_willis | They are VERY configurable.. | 21:58 |
gordonjcp | OerHeks: no, I don't want it to open anything | 21:58 |
funkt | not really like above how could I do it do you still suggest cairo? | 21:58 |
bobweaver | gordonjcp, there is also org.gnome.nautilus.desktop but I am not seeing anything in there | 21:58 |
gordonjcp | OerHeks: I want the little bar that says "this is a digital camera, open everything in shotwell" in the nautilus window to go away | 21:58 |
funkt | all I want to so is show my folders and which one i have open rather than scroll through the unity bar | 21:59 |
Anternat | hi i have 10.04 server which i can only use ssh to access. I have lost access although it stays in the network when powered on.(Neither by hostname nor by ip). Happened after i did an install about security camera software. what are my options to gain access again? | 21:59 |
dr_willis | gordonjcp: i think i saw on askubuntu how to do thjat. | 21:59 |
funkt | and sometimes loose it all together | 21:59 |
bobweaver | ahh maybe org.gnome.nautilus.preferences | 21:59 |
bobweaver | I think that that is it could be wrong google foo time | 21:59 |
dr_willis | funkt: you are using the term 'folders' to mean 'open applications' ? | 21:59 |
funkt | erm yeah | 21:59 |
funkt | sorry keep referring to that | 22:00 |
funkt | yes open applications on a smart bottom bar | 22:00 |
dr_willis | funkt: you can shrink the left side panel to show more icons if thats all you need. | 22:00 |
funkt | would be ideal! | 22:00 |
dr_willis | most every dock has some sort of 'windows-list' feature | 22:00 |
funkt | no I just want to see what folders i have open rather than use unity side bar | 22:00 |
funkt | http://i.stack.imgur.com/15F2g.jpg | 22:01 |
funkt | just like that screenshot | 22:01 |
dr_willis | that screen shot is not showing any open. ;) | 22:01 |
funkt | ok well imagine it had some open | 22:01 |
funkt | lol | 22:01 |
dr_willis | the various docks normally have a 'dock' mode where they look like that | 22:01 |
funkt | what docks? | 22:02 |
dr_willis | !docks | 22:02 |
ubottu | Ubuntu includes several dock-like navigation bars. Some options are: avant-window-navigator, cairo-dock, docky (formerly part of gnome-do), stalonetray, simdock, kdocker, kooldock. | 22:02 |
funkt | sorry I just don't understad | 22:02 |
dr_willis | the ones we mentioned earlier... | 22:02 |
funkt | stand | 22:02 |
funkt | I know you did | 22:02 |
funkt | .... | 22:02 |
dr_willis | cairo and avant-window-navibator have more features then most people ever need. | 22:02 |
dr_willis | http://glx-dock.org/mc_album.php?a=3 cairo dock screen shots | 22:03 |
funkt | I mean i used to use a terminal command and the bottom bar would appear and unity sidebar that was in a previous version | 22:03 |
InspectorCluseau | plank works for me | 22:03 |
funkt | you don't know of any hacks like that? | 22:03 |
bobweaver | funkt, if you like you can use gnome-classic and Unity 2d on top of each other | 22:04 |
funkt | thats it! | 22:04 |
funkt | thats what i want! | 22:04 |
funkt | how do i do that? | 22:04 |
funkt | lol | 22:04 |
bobweaver | funkt, you can also kill the pannel in Unity 2d | 22:04 |
funkt | brilliant | 22:05 |
dr_willis | I said to use the 2 together earlier....... | 22:05 |
dr_willis | you said you dident want the gnome2 look. | 22:05 |

bobweaver | sweet | 22:18 |
Dougie187 | bobweaver: do you know if there is a room dedicated to apport/woopsie developers? | 22:19 |
axgb | Hi | 22:19 |
bobweaver | funkt, sounds like you are going to want to kill unity2d-pannel though because you want to run unity 2d and have old ffects right ? | 22:19 |
escott | !launchpad | Dougie187 | 22:20 |
ubottu | Dougie187: Launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ | 22:20 |
funkt | yeah basically unity and just an open application bar at the bottom | 22:20 |
bobweaver | funkt, you have to kill unity panel 2x like killall unity-2d-pannel && killall unity-2d-pannel | 22:20 |
funkt | ok if I kill them can i get them back? | 22:20 |
bobweaver | funkt, correct so you just want dash and launcher of Unity then | 22:20 |
axgb | I have multiple desktop enviroments on my laptop, GNOME (the one i want to use) has a blue desktop background and windows are transparent and graphics really dont work What should I do? | 22:20 |
bobweaver | funkt, launch then again in terminal unity-2d-pannel | 22:21 |
bobweaver | funkt, but it will cover up for gnome-pannel | 22:21 |
bobweaver | but not the bottom one | 22:21 |
funkt | ermm.... what I would like is unity and a bottom bar with whatever folders I have open at the bottom like the old gnome style | 22:21 |
funkt | one at the top, bottom and unity on the side | 22:22 |
axgb | I have multiple desktop enviroments on my laptop, GNOME (the one i want to use) has a blue desktop background and windows are transparent and graphics really dont work, it is unusable. how do i fix it | 22:22 |
bobweaver | funkt, correct then that would do that so you need to make sure when you sign in that you use gnome-session then after logging in open terminal and enter in unity-2d | 22:22 |
bobweaver | that is it | 22:22 |
escott | axgb, its an issue with your graphics card. what kind of card do you have | 22:22 |
axgb | im just checking | 22:23 |
funkt | oh i see so use those kill functions in the terminal? | 22:23 |
bobweaver | funkt, I mean unity2d can run off walyen for shakes | 22:23 |
bobweaver | if configed right ^^ | 22:23 |
funkt | right | 22:23 |
funkt | what does that mean sorry? | 22:23 |
axgb | escott ATI radeon 9200 | 22:24 |
bobweaver | funkt, unity 2d has three parts to it unity-2d-shell unity-2d-spreed unity-2d-pannel | 22:24 |
bobweaver | funkt, all 2 parts are run when you run unity-2d | 22:24 |
bobweaver | er 3 | 22:24 |
funkt | you know what this is far too complicated | 22:24 |
funkt | thanks for you help mate! | 22:24 |
escott | axgb, what drivers are you using? open source or proprietary (suggestion would be the same in either case -- try the other) | 22:24 |
funkt | honestly | 22:24 |
dr_willis | funkt: if you just want a bottom type panel.. use Lubuntu/Lxde ;) | 22:24 |
funkt | I am just going to have to get comfortable with this | 22:24 |
axgb | how do i check and how do i change | 22:24 |
escott | axgb, what version of ubuntu? | 22:25 |
bobweaver | funkt, no probs if you like I was 2d dev I can make a dang bottom pannel in like 5 hours you can come back and find me if you like | 22:25 |
axgb | lubuntu 12.04 32bit but i installed edubuntu and gnome, all works except gnome | 22:25 |

funkt | Ohhh i see | 22:26 |
axgb | what is jockey-gtk? | 22:26 |
funkt | lol | 22:26 |
bobweaver | correct funkt look at my youtube videos | 22:26 |
dr_willis | axgb: a tool to install addational drivers for some hardware | 22:26 |
funkt | well honestly mate I'm sure it would be amazing thank you all the same! | 22:26 |

Catbuntu | Hi | 22:26 |
escott | Dougie187, yes | 22:26 |
bobweaver | np have a good one funkt | 22:26 |
axgb | shall i check it out and install some other driver? | 22:26 |
Dougie187 | So, if there is an application monitoring a section of ram, and apport tries to generate a core dump, would that look like you were trying to read the "jailed" section of ram? | 22:27 |
dr_willis | axgb: thats the tool normally used in 12.04 to get drivers for nvidia and ati cards and many wireless cards | 22:27 |
axgb | okay | 22:27 |
hyun_ | Hi, are there many ppl use ubuntu in embedded system? | 22:27 |
escott | Dougie187, i think core dumps are triggered by the kernel. i dont think apport does anything to cause the core dump | 22:28 |
dr_willis | in 12.10 you get to it from the 'software-sources' tool - it has its own tab | 22:28 |
axgb | shall i sudo apt-get install jockey-jtk | 22:28 |
dr_willis | axgb: its installed allready in 12.04 | 22:28 |
dr_willis | and in that other app in 12.10 | 22:28 |
escott | axgb, it is probably already installed. run it like you would any other program | 22:28 |
Dougie187 | escott: the wiki says that apport uses "cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern |/usr/share/apport/apport %p %s %c" to get a core dump | 22:28 |
bobweaver | funkt, here is some work that I did for Ubuntu Christians Though i am *NOT* a christian just like to code :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=po8nqy1PP_U | 22:29 |
bobweaver | tat is all untiy 2d | 22:29 |
escott | Dougie187, if you look at that /proc/sys file it is describing to the kernel what it should do when it makes a core dump. you could change that to create a core dump file | 22:30 |
=== Gallomimia_ is now known as Gallomimia | ||
=== Albastos is now known as Albastos|off | ||
Dougie187 | escott: ok. it's not actually getting a core dump? I'm kind of confused. :P | 22:31 |
funkt | hey bobweaver: thats exactly it very nice I have to say! | 22:31 |
axgb | a rogram called "additional drivers" popped up, is that it? | 22:31 |
funkt | and there you have the bottom bar! | 22:31 |
escott | Dougie187, the kernel sees the program do something it should and triggers a GPF. the kernel initiates the core dump and passes the output to the command specified in /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern. the kernel does the memory read. apport is involved after the fact as the kernel feeds it data | 22:32 |
escott | axgb, yes | 22:32 |
escott | Dougie187, if that file were empty it would probably disable core dumps | 22:32 |
Dougie187 | escott: ok, so can anything else detect the memory read? | 22:32 |
escott | Dougie187, but check the man pages on that file | 22:32 |
Dougie187 | ok | 22:33 |
axgb | it says "no proprietry drivers are in use on your system" | 22:33 |
escott | Dougie187, i dont know how something "detects a memory read" is this a hardware feature or are you running something in valgrind | 22:33 |
Dougie187 | It's not my software. :P It's Blizzards Warden | 22:33 |
axgb | escott: what do i do? i have it open, it says "no propartitiory drivers are in use" | 22:34 |
bobweaver | funkt, just start unity-2d after you log into gnome throw back or whatever it is called just type unity-2d into a termianl | 22:34 |
escott | Dougie187, there have been a lot of complaints about blizzard blocking people out of games just because they use linux. Blizzard doesnt seem to care | 22:34 |

axgb | where do i go to enable it? | 22:35 |
escott | axgb, that application should allow you to install those drivers | 22:35 |
axgb | there is an enable button, it is grey | 22:35 |
escott | axgb, you need to run that program with gksudo then. it should have prompted you for the password, not sure why it didn't. in terminal run "gksudo jockey-gtk" | 22:36 |

axgb | not sure, i think so | 22:45 |
subman | escott, that does not tell me which driver is in use though | 22:45 |
crackerjackz | axgb: they had two different ones i believe.. one was 128mb and the other was 256 mb | 22:45 |
escott | subman, i would think that means the nvidia drivers, but i dont use nvidia so i cant be sure | 22:45 |

crackerjackz | axgb: does it work from the live cd? | 23:04 |

crackerjackz | i used to use that card on gentoo i had the ati catalyst control center installed | 23:06 |
axgb | gosh, i thought it was 7 years | 23:06 |
crackerjackz | was for the desktop though | 23:06 |
axgb | though the laptops motherboard was upgraded, im not sure whether the graphics card was as well, whether the sticker was wrong | 23:07 |
escott | axgb, it was released in 2003. it would ship in devices for a couple years, but the chip itself is old old old | 23:07 |
escott | axgb, you changed the motherboard on a laptop. who does that? check sudo lshw -C video | 23:08 |
axgb | it runs unity fine, it runs lxde fine (of course) it runs gnome classic fine, is there something fundamentally different about gnome 3 - isn't it very simiar to unity | 23:09 |

crackerjackz | its and old school card i remember playing doom 3 when it first came out on that card | 23:11 |
escott | axgb, you might have bought it more recently, but the age of the chip is counted from when it is first released not from the last device to ship with it | 23:11 |
axgb | okay | 23:11 |
escott | axgb, if you pay them enough to make it profitable they will print something from the 70s doesn't make it a new chip though | 23:11 |
axgb | but will it work with gnome - if gnome is too (whatever) for it, can you tell me | 23:11 |
trism | noiro: in nautilus, right click the file/folder, choose Compress... and select .zip in the dropdown | 23:12 |
escott | axgb, its not going to work well. paradoxically you might do better with 12.10 or 13.04 (when that is released) | 23:12 |
escott | axgb, the gnome team has done some work to improve the software rendering when the hardware is not good enough | 23:12 |

RickZilla | almoxarife: I've used synaptic quite a bit in the past...this is a new install, for some reason the apply button is greyed out...no need to assume that first | 23:23 |
almoxarife | RickZilla: you are not using synaptic with admin permission, try it from terminal, 'gksu synaptic' | 23:23 |
RickZilla | almoxarife: I'll try that | 23:23 |
crackerjackz | i think i found the answer to my sound problem but will someone help me understand what it means? this guy on the forums says.. I figured out the issue. Apt-get upgrade had installed pulseaudio-esound-compat:i386, and removed pulseaudio-esound-compat. Apparently pulseaudio won't start when that package is missing. You'd think it would be a dependency or something. | 23:25 |
phax | any ideas guys ? | 23:25 |
RickZilla | almoxarife: That did the trick, I'll copy that command for future use...I much prefer synaptic to the software center | 23:25 |
RickZilla | thanks for the help | 23:25 |
almoxarife | RickZilla: :) | 23:26 |

almoxarife | RickZilla: btw, you should leave then fonts, some sites will look like swiss cheese without them | 23:28 |
crackerjackz | hrmm no that's not my problem.. i have pulseaudio-esound-compat installed.. | 23:28 |
almoxarife | crackerjackz: do you see 'pulseaudio' running? | 23:29 |
psusi | I'm trying to figure out why when I plug in my headphones, the sound stops coming out of the speakers and only comes out of the headphones under 12.04, but not under 12.10 ( comes out both ) | 23:32 |
ActionParsnip | crackerjackz: try: killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.pulse* wait 10 seconds and then retry sound | 23:32 |
ActionParsnip | psusi: different alsa version, different kernel | 23:32 |
psusi | ActionParsnip, I tried booting with the older kernel and it didn't seem to matter | 23:33 |
ActionParsnip | psusi: weird. You may need an option in /etc/modprobe/alsa-base.conf to make it load differently | 23:33 |
psusi | so you think it's alsa not pulseaudio? | 23:34 |
psusi | according to pacmd, the headphone port is selected for output, but it still comes out of the speakers too | 23:34 |
Slagwag | apt-get install smbfs should install the smb packages right? | 23:34 |
Slagwag | if i want to mount a network path in command line | 23:35 |
Slagwag | i am trying to use CIFS but i got an error saying i am missing the wrong handler | 23:35 |
Slagwag | but i read that cifs was the successor to SMB so i am now confused | 23:36 |
ActionParsnip | psusi: try: echo "options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf > /dev/null reboot to test | 23:36 |
MonkeyDust | Slagwag guess cifs is not for windows | 23:36 |
MonkeyDust | Slagwag cifs is similar to nfs | 23:36 |
Slagwag | ah ok | 23:36 |
Slagwag | now i did sapt-get install smbfs and i believe it installed but when i try to mount using smbfs | 23:37 |
Slagwag | it fails and doesnt recognize it | 23:37 |
RickZilla | almoxarife: Even non-western fonts, when I'm reading an English site? | 23:37 |
steph__ | i have spent most of the afternoon trying to install mythtv without any luck - anyone willing to try to help me? | 23:37 |
steph__ | i run backend set up and all i get is a black screen | 23:37 |
Wipster | good evening, in hostapds setting whats the difference between supported_rates and basic_rates? | 23:37 |
RickZilla | steph_: I think this is more of an ubuntu channel, is there a mythbuntu channel somewhere? | 23:37 |
steph__ | RickZilla, I don't know, but I'll dig around | 23:38 |
almoxarife | steph__: see what the folk at #xbmc have to say | 23:38 |
lucid | steph: try this link , it shows step by step how to install mythtv ---> http://parker1.co.uk/mythtv_ubuntu.php | 23:39 |
Elladan | So, how do I set up encrypted swap in the 12.10 installer? | 23:39 |
Elladan | Because I went into the manual partitioner, and set up an encrypted volume. | 23:40 |
Elladan | And then it hard errored out and crashed because I had normal swap. | 23:40 |
doomlord | gnome-classic: Is there a way to bring up panel options when you can't see any bare panel pixels? (i can only click on window list,launchers, etc). i tried alt+RMB | 23:40 |
Elladan | ... but there is no option to create encrypted swap. Or layer LVM on top of encryption. Also if you create an encrypted partition you have to reboot the installer to edit it. | 23:41 |
doomlord | maybe there's something in settings menu for it, or a textfile? | 23:41 |
frustro | hi all, 2 server 12.04 on 2 vps's. I remembered 11.04 had "install ubuntu cloud" now it's MAAS that requires hardware. There there something I'm missing? or would cloud never have worked on a vps? | 23:41 |
Catbuntu | Hi | 23:42 |
lucid | doomlord: just Alt-Right click | 23:43 |
doomlord | seems to only ever bring up options for the particular gadget under the cursor (eg 'edit -menu', preferences for window list/desktops..) | 23:44 |
phax | hi lucid | 23:46 |
lucid | hey phax | 23:46 |
doomlord | i guess i'll have to remove some objects to access the underlying panel | 23:46 |
phax | can you assist me with a question on how resolv.conf is generated on Ubuntu 12.0.4 | 23:46 |
phax | I am on Ubuntu 12.0.4 and am using a router which gets the DNS from the ISP. Everytime Ubuntu starts up the /etc/resolv.conf the nameserver entries are missing. If i kill and restart dhclient the entries are present...how do I fix it? | 23:46 |
lucid | phax: i will try | 23:47 |
ActionParsnip | Elladan: there are issues with hibernate and encrypted swap if memory serves | 23:49 |
IT-L | how i config my BIOS to boot ubunto from my usb flash disk? | 23:49 |
=== jwhs is now known as JohnWHSmith | ||
ActionParsnip | phax: you can add things using /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base those get added when DHCP completes | 23:50 |
blackshirt | it-l, your board should have support to boot from usb | 23:50 |
ActionParsnip | IT-L: press F11 (usually) and you can select the USB to boot | 23:50 |
IT-L | my board support USB-zip & USB-HDD | 23:51 |
lucid | phax: you have a message | 23:51 |
ActionParsnip | IT-L: try USB HDD | 23:51 |
IT-L | ok, thanks | 23:51 |
IT-L | I try... | 23:52 |
Elladan | ActionParsnip, that might be true, but the installer both requires and seems to have no option for it... | 23:56 |

Elladan | ActionParsnip, hibernate is not really something I care about, in any case. | 23:57 |
juanlas | hi all, I just installed 12.10 desktop on VMware player in Win7 and it's kind of sluggish. I've got 2 cores and 4gb of RAM available for the VM. any ideas why it might be sluggish? | 23:58 |
ActionParsnip | Elladan: I don't use encryptfs, I think it causes too many headaches. If you don't use hibernate then rock the party :) | 23:58 |
Elladan | ActionParsnip, O | 23:58 |
psusi | ActionParsnip, nope, that didn't do it | 23:58 |
mr-rich | Has anyone here migrated from Evolution 3.2.x to Thunderbird? | 23:58 |
Elladan | ActionParsnip, I'm using dm-crypt not that stacked fs thing. | 23:58 |
IOmegaZ | anyone know hoe to install xgl? | 23:58 |
mr-rich | juanlas: try using Virtualbox from Oracle ... | 23:59 |
IOmegaZ | anyone know hoe to install xgl? | 23:59 |
ActionParsnip | psusi: ok, remove the line from the file | 23:59 |
ActionParsnip | !info xgl | 23:59 |
ubottu | Package xgl does not exist in quantal | 23:59 |
Elladan | ActionParsnip, so I gave up on trying to make the partitioner sane and just hit the automatic partition button with the requisite options. It seems to have decided to create LVM on top of dm-crypt with swap on top of LVM. | 23:59 |
