[00:00] SunMoonStar, usb-hid [00:00] SunMoonStar: got another mouse to test? does another mouse work correctly? [00:00] O___________O wat iv got mc, redeclipse, xonotic, mysql and a bunch of other things runing and im only useing 834mb of ram [00:00] unfortunately no other mouse [00:00] escott, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1430846/ [00:00] did thay tweak the new kernal release? [00:00] what is usb-hid is that something to run in the terminal? [00:01] Ojoloco, ??????? [00:01] successfully appened new sig to user sig cache file. does that sentence make any sense to anyone ? [00:01] I don't know, it is what it is. [00:01] Ojoloco, thats so zen [00:02] It seems that some of my files and dirs have lost their... [00:02] their properties? [00:02] their permissions? [00:02] all? [00:02] Ojoloco, generally an indication of some kind of corruption [00:02] escott: thanks for the suggestion [00:02] LennySabatier, sig means signature [00:02] corruption! :O [00:03] Okay, so I still can't get the right resolution. [00:03] SunMoonStar, usbhid is the kernel module/driver for usb human input devices [00:03] Gwennifer_: still trying? :) [00:04] ok back... somehow this chat had some kinda error and dropped me [00:04] Yes. [00:04] I have performance problems with wine. while a wine program is running under load, the computer becomes very, very slow, mouse cursor jumps and stops instead of moving smoothly, alt+tab takes forever, the whole system is almost unusable. [00:04] LennySabatier, im not sure why you would be appending a signature to the cache. that seems odd. [00:05] SunMoonStar: if X is running, try 'xev' and right-click inside the window to see if the button is indeed producing signals [00:06] Gwennifer_: i believe we discussed the issue once before, did the link i offered up help at all? [00:06] which link? [00:06] Gwennifer_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Adding_undetected_resolutions [00:06] reeed: what is X [00:06] well, i'm merely following these steps to the letter https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory#Recovering_Your_Data_Manually [00:07] ey escott, I have about 400 files and dirs corrupted, is there any way to fix them? [00:07] SunMoonStar: it's the window system for Linux. are you running Linux? [00:07] It's interesting because when I am superuser I don't see any corruption [00:08] Ojoloco, boot the install media and run "fsck" [00:08] reeed: ubuntu [00:08] reeed: it does respond to right click [00:08] Ojoloco, ok. what kind of filesystem is this? [00:08] reeed: when I click some numbers come up and go back when I release [00:09] reeed: does that mean that usb-hid should be helpful? [00:09] I think it is FAT32, the default filesyste for Ubuntu [00:09] SunMoonStar: congrats. now, r u on KDE? Kubuntu? [dont worry about usbhid.] [00:09] Okay, I tried those commands, now what? :x [00:09] reeed: drr, i'm on the wrong computer. i have to test this on the problem laptop lol. let's say it works, what then? and if not? It's ubuntu 12.10 [00:10] almoxarife: ping? :o [00:10] Gwennifer_: ping? [00:10] I just wanted to get your attention [00:10] hello i need some help please [00:11] Ojoloco, the default filesystem is ext4 [00:11] It must be ext4 then, I didn't changed it [00:11] SunMoonStar: then you'll have to go into the Control Panel and play with the mouse settings [00:11] reeed: the control panel has hardly any settings [00:11] Ojoloco, what is the output of "mount" use paste.ubuntu.com [00:11] SunMoonStar: I don't know what it's called in Ubuntu. [on my Kubuntu it's called System Settings.] [00:12] back :) [00:12] reeed: only righthanded/lefthanded, ointer speed, drag and drop, and double click timeout [00:12] escott, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1430868/ [00:13] i can't remember the last time i had my brain sweat from overheating trying to solve an endless issu like that one ! [00:13] Ojoloco, and what folder are you in and what are the permissions shown in "ls -ld . [00:13] reeed: what if the click does not register on xev. [00:13] Ojoloco, or "sudo ls -ld ." [00:13] I know how you feel Lenny... I thought I was smart until I started using ubuntu [00:13] whenever i try to run ubuntu, or any other linux distro for that matter, i get a bunch of random colors, and weird pixelated images, HELP PLZ [00:13] SunMoonStar: possibly bad mouse. [00:14] My LG notebook isn't powering off when halting. How can I debug this? I already tried using the "reboot=" kernel line option and didn't work, just as a bunch of other things. I'm clueless. [00:14] this is from a usb or cd [00:14] but virtual box works fine [00:15] SunMoonStar: look at /var/log/syslog , do you see error msg's mouse related? [00:15] any tips on properly downloading 12.10 would be appreciated [00:15] .ubuntu.com [00:15] hello [00:15] Hi! [00:15] dr_willis, it said "connection to pulseaudio failed. automatic retry in 5s" [00:15] <-- dedis0 has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [00:15] Chunkin: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [00:15] hey! [00:15] escott, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1430871/ I can't access ./Ubuntu One/ dir, that is the ls -ld output. [00:15] almoxarife: ok let me go turn on the laptop and check it out [00:15] almoxarife: Wut do I do now after I follow that section? [00:15] SunMoonStar, and the output of "id" [00:15] hi [00:16] Gwennifer_: what stage are you at ? [00:16] so what is this about netflix? [00:16] sounds like the pulse server/service is down [00:16] <-- Sonderblade has quit (Quit: Lämnar) [00:16] SunMoonStar, the permissions on that folder are clearly incorrect [00:16] SunMoonStar, soory mean for Ojoloco [00:17] whenever i try to run ubuntu, or any other linux distro for that matter, i get a bunch of random colors, and weird pixelated images, HELP PLZ [00:17] Ojoloco, the output of "id" and note that those folder permissions are clearly wrong [00:17] Krustyklimber: did u try unetbootin? use that to burn the ISO file onto your usbstick [00:17] Chunkin: what does it have to do with vbox? [00:17] plz help [00:17] id 2? no writing and exec for owner? [00:18] so, it's easy to fix, isn't? chmod 776? [00:18] Ojoloco, no execute for anyone on the folder is going to cause lots of weird things [00:18] reeed I looked at it, but cannot tell what it is I should do/download [00:18] we llwehn i run a linux in vbox it works [00:18] I am totally computer illiterate (not a programmer) [00:18] but when i run from usb or cd it has boot logo, but then all pixelated [00:18] escott, would you do 776 or it's a bad choice [00:19] Ojoloco, 776 is also wrong === user_ is now known as Treadstone__71 [00:19] 777? [00:19] !permissions | Ojoloco [00:19] Ojoloco: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [00:19] Krustyklimber: ahhh. it's very easy. no programming required. run it. it will ask a few questions, but the most important are: where is your ISO file, where is your DVD/CD drive [00:19] Chunkin: pastebin /var/log/syslog [00:19] ? [00:19] where? in my 'puter :P [00:19] im on windows [00:19] run it... it being? [00:20] Krustyklimber: run unetbootin [00:20] Chunkin: i dont do win issues [00:20] Ojoloco, directory permissions should always be odd unless they are 0 [00:20] Krustyklimber: you gotta try it out. [00:20] My LG notebook isn't powering off when halting. How can I debug this? I already tried using the "reboot=" kernel line option and didn't work, just as a bunch of other things. [00:20] no, im trying to install linux, but i currently have windows [00:20] ok I'll download the version for linux? [00:20] and when i run from live cd/usb i get wierd pixelated image [00:21] Krustyklimber: yes, if u r running linux, then get the linux one :-) [00:21] escott, and what do I want? Do I want group and others to write, read and exec it? Or only owner can do it? [00:21] I am running Ubuntu 12.04 lts [00:21] almoxarife: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1430880/ [00:21] Chunkin: look for a safe graphics mode on the installer. [00:21] Krustyklimber: and so am I ! :-) :-) well, mine is Kubuntu. [00:22] q [00:22] ? [00:23] SunMoonStar: not much there, paste the complete /var/log/syslog and Xorg.0.log [00:23] well even when i first boot up, the selection for like memtest, install, or boot are all pixelated, can barely see the letters [00:23] where is xorg.0.log found [00:23] is it a graphics card problem? [00:23] ok it downloaded... now how do I make it run? [00:23] Chunkin: I am thinking the installer is having an issue with your graphics card. Under vbox, the graphics card is coming as a virtual one. [00:23] SunMoonStar: click with the mouse, unplug it and replug it first, Xorg.0.log is in /var/log [00:24] Krustyklimber: click it? [00:24] i have a custom build comp with amd card [00:24] I double click it says it can't display it [00:25] erncic? [00:25] hmmm [00:25] "no application for executable files? [00:25] how would i manage to fix with out new graphics card [00:26] Chunkin: I am just giving a suggestion to try. Ubuntu used to have an alt install disk that was text based. That might help. [00:26] erncic: its called 'mini.iso' now [00:26] Krustyklimber: ..... i gotta go .... hope someone can help u [00:26] erncic: same concept as the 'alternative' install [00:26] so do I... thanks for trying [00:27] Thanks Almoxarife. Chuckin, try the mini.iso [00:27] Thank you to everyone that pitched in trying to help me resolve my issu. unfortunately it is far from being resolved but i have to go to sleep. i'll most likely be back tomorrow to try and fix it with your help. thank you Ubuntu community :) [00:27] almoxarife: syslog: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1430893/ xorglog: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1430894/ [00:28] erncic: thanks [00:28] Chunkin: no problem. I hope it helps you. [00:31] Hi, everyone i got a little problem with logging in into GNOME if i login in cli it works perfectly but if i login using gnome it fails it just loops. If i use another user account it works. is there a way i could fix this? [00:32] SunMoonStar: did you look at the paste/s? the sytem sees the mouse and provides a driver, i am betting on a broke mouse, mechanical/harware broke [00:33] almoxarife: yes i saw that much. didn't know that it meant your conclusion though [00:33] almoxarife: thanks for looking at it [00:34] SunMoonStar: mice tend to just work, when they dont usually its the mouse, or the batteries if they are that type [00:35] okie dokie, old mouse, not too surprising I guess. I just found out my gf bought me a new mouse she got upset when she saw me trying to fix this one lol [00:35] (because she got me a new one and didn't want me to successfully fix this one) [00:37] anyone ? [00:38] banaan: What version are you running? [00:38] Hey guys, total newbie here.. Can't figure out how to add items(shortcuts) to the taskbar to the left?? --- ubuntu 12.10 [00:39] DrDank, just drag it [00:39] Sorinan: I'll give that a try.. Never thought of that. [00:40] erncic: 13.04 but it happend after i removed KDE and reinstalled unity [00:40] *drag the application icon [00:40] aka ubuntu-desktop [00:40] Cool, thanks guys! [00:41] wow YAY I actually helped someone [00:41] Hi guys, could tell how can i check if daemon is running, besides ps aux | grep because i have to do it from a script? [00:41] a deamon* [00:41] banaan: any errors show after a text based login? [00:41] If I may ask something: When I try to change via CRTL - ALT - F1 into my console, I get a red screen. Does anybody have experience with this issue? [00:41] anyone had the issue where vmware workstation can't find kernel headers even though they're installed? [00:41] erncic: it works perfectly [00:41] erncic: if i use cli to login [00:42] fantasma: red terminal screeen? [00:42] banaan: which login manager is showing? [00:43] almoxarife: the whole screen is red. I can't read anything. [00:43] dr willis you still here? [00:43] erncic: unity greeter [00:43] Virunga: do the same in the script, assign the result to a variable, check to see if the variable is null or not [00:43] erncic: but if i login with a different user it works [00:44] erncic: i suspect something is wrong with my profile lol [00:44] hi [00:44] somsip: i already did that but it returns the grep command also [00:44] fantasma: how about F2? same? [00:44] a5m0: [00:44] Virunga: show code [00:44] hei [00:44] i had the same problem but i found a fix. let me check for a moment if i can find it [00:44] somsip: ps aux | grep chef-client [00:44] banaan: make sure all the paths and files in .bashrc, .profile and /etc/profile exist. Make sure nothing is in there that does not now exist since kde was removed. [00:44] thanks [00:45] almoxarife: yep. I thought about setting GRUB to "nomodeset" and try if it works [00:45] Virunga: the code from the script? [00:45] banaan: most likely the first two in your case as it is isolated to your user acct. [00:45] erncic: i'll take a look. thx for the information [00:45] almoxarife: but by doing so, I need to edit the start parameters everytime I start my PC, and that is kind of annoying ^^ === Fretta_ is now known as Fretta === LoneWolf is now known as Guest44229 [00:46] fantasma: are graphics acceptable with exception of console terminals? [00:46] Ok i just purged lightdm and after that i logged in as user in CLI and did startx [00:46] it just logged in [00:46] i am a beginner using ubuntu 12 32 bits, well yesterday i decided to install the radeon driver everything was fine until i restarted the computer then the gnome bar was missing and some Compiz error messages appeared on screen. Well i sent the error log to the ubuntu. What you guys recommend me to fix the problem ? I can't even use alt+tab to shift window anymore, doesn't work [00:46] almoxarife: everything is great. I can play games like Nexuiz with ULTRA details. [00:47] somsip: if you try to execute that command with whatever process name you want you'll see that it returns at least one string, always. [00:47] banaan: even easier fix. Cool! [00:47] erncic: haha :P [00:47] stablersvu: un-install the radeon driver/s [00:47] fantasma: there is such a thing as graphic terminal [00:47] almoxarife: By the way: I got 2 graphics cards (both use the same driver, wich i installed with apt-get install nvidia-current) [00:48] Virunga: so exclude the command that is running that is showing in the ps. ps aux | grep some-program | grep -v grep [00:48] why do they make it so difficult to install 12.10? [00:49] almoxarife: yeah, I can use the terminal in xserver [00:49] a5m0: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) did you try this already? [00:49] banaan, yes and they're installed [00:50] fantasma: its a matter of how often you are going to use console, nill? although it does give you something to fixate on :) [00:50] somsip: god damn it, i looked at the man of grep and i confused -v with -V... Thank you [00:50] linux-headers-3.7.0-4-generic is already the newest version. [00:50] Virunga: np [00:50] almoxarife: that's true, but I was wondering why this happens :) [00:51] a5m0: what kernel are you running [00:51] xorg-edgers [00:51] I've installed ubuntu server 12-04 and when I plug a USB wireless card in, it doesn't show up as wlan0 [00:51] Got ubuntu 12.04 and when i connect my headphones to the 3.5mm jack on the laptop the sound just continue coming from the internal speakers, but if i restart the pc the sound is in the headphones but not in the internal speakers if i unplug it. [00:52] I've used the same wireless cards under ubuntu desktop, and they work. For some reason, they don't work with ubuntu server. [00:52] dmesg shows the USB device was plugged in, and ls_usb shows the device [00:52] but /sbin/ifconfig shows no wlan device. [00:52] Snurre86, have you checked this? http://askubuntu.com/questions/6951/automatic-mute-speakers-when-headphones-are-unplugged [00:52] almoxarife: But thanks anyway :D [00:52] Snurre86: Looks like ubuntu isn't seeing that jack [00:53] mensvaga: verify you have 'linux-headers-generic' installed [00:53] hope i will now read it and come back [00:53] Im not getting hardware acelleration on anything, and I cant extend my desktop to my third display [00:53] almoxarife: that was not installed. [00:53] installing now. [00:53] a5m0: sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-x.x.x.x/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h /usr/src/linux-headers-x.x.x.x/include/linux/version.h/linux/version.h [00:54] a5m0: change the x.x.x.x to your linux kernel version [00:54] can anyone tell me how to check how much space I have on a flashdrive? [00:54] Krustyklimber: df -h [00:54] Krustyklimber, df -h [00:54] Krustyklimber: df [00:54] in a terminal [00:54] alright what's broken [00:55] almoxarife: rebooting for good measure. [00:55] a5m0: sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-x.x.x.x-generic/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h /usr/src/linux-headers-x.x.x.x-generic/include/linux/version.h/linux/version.h [00:55] I don't know how to get to a terminal [00:55] mensvaga: good idea [00:55] Krustyklimber: alt+f2 [00:55] xterm , or gnome-terminal [00:55] Krustyklimber: Might want to look into it, makes using ubuntu a lot more enjoyable [00:55] a5m0: also do this change the x..x.x.x to the correct kernel version after this vmware will FIND the kernel headers [00:55] or accessories -> system tools -> lxterm, uxterm, xterm, gnome-terminal, konsole [00:55] what window manager are you using? [00:56] yeah Rick at this point my enjoyment is nil [00:56] Is there a way to exclude webapps from the unity launcher but retain them in the "me" menu (or whatever it is called now)? [00:56] a5m0: had the same problem and it got fixed with this so :) [00:56] Krustyklimber: sudo apt-get install vlc [00:56] once you've figured out how to get a terminal ;) [00:56] err, that installs a popular video player [00:56] I got to df... but it didn't do anything [00:56] it's completely unreleated to what you're asking for. [00:56] banaan, 3.7.0-4 or 3.7.0-4-generic ? [00:56] Krustyklimber: alt-F2 and type "gnome-terminal" without the quotes [00:57] Krustyklimber: or ctrl-shift-T [00:57] didn't know about that little trick [00:57] a5m0: [00:57] a5m0: both of them [00:58] ctrl shirt t just opens a new tab [00:58] a5m0: you need to run the commands twice one without -generic and one time with -generic [00:58] CTRL+ALT+T [00:58] I'm wearing a ctrl shirt t right now [00:58] /usr/src/linux-headers-3.7.0-4/include/linux/version.h/linux/version.h': No such file or directory [00:59] No command 'gnome' found, did you mean: Command 'gnote' from package 'gnote' (universe) gnome: command not found [00:59] o/ [00:59] Krustyklimber: just worked for me, did you type gnome-terminal ? [00:59] Krustyklimber: CTRL+ALT+T [01:00] oh duh no - [01:00] Emanon: thanks for the correction :p [01:00] ok now I have three little purple windows with my computer name [01:00] No problem tyler_d it happens. [01:00] Krustyklimber: for future ref, 'terminal' should be enough to get some options [01:01] almoxarife: wlan0 still not showing up as a networking device. [01:01] mensvaga: after reboot? [01:01] correct. [01:01] Is there a way to exclude webapps from the unity launcher but retain them in the "me" menu (or whatever it is called now)? Also, is there a way to remove a webapp from the "me" menu? [01:01] a5m0: sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-x.x.x.x-generic/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h /usr/src/linux-headers-x.x.x.x-generic/include/linux/version.h [01:01] a5m0: made a typo lol :D [01:01] you lost me almoxarlife [01:01] mensvaga: looked at /var/log/syslog? [01:01] a5m0: sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-x.x.x.x/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h /usr/src/linux-headers-x.x.x.x/include/linux/version.h/ [01:02] mensvaga: lspci/usb does show it? correct? [01:02] no offense ladies and gents, but I am not getting anywhere [01:02] almoxarife: lsubs shows it. [01:02] dmesg shows that the kernel recognizes it. [01:02] Krustyklimber: what are you trying to do? [01:03] mensvaga: pastebin /var/log/syslog pls [01:03] !pastebin [01:03] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [01:03] i love you ubottu [01:04] !havemychildren [01:04] a5m0: lemme know if it worked :D [01:04] mensvaga: or install 'pastebinit' then run 'pastebinit /var/log/syslog' [01:04] Guess that one doesn't work. [01:04] I noticed that [01:05] well first I was just trying to figure out how to use the cam on my puter to video chat with my gf (on YIM) ...then I was told to install 12.10... but I downloaded it wrong (I guess) then I was told to got get UNetbootin... I did... it won't open... now I am trying to check the space on my flash so I can retry to download 12.10 and now I am very frustrated and confused [01:05] !marryme [01:05] thanks banaan it works again! [01:05] a5m0: this one is actually kinda tricky btw took me 2 weeks to find it LOL [01:05] i found a thread about solving it but they were like 20 commands or more long [01:05] Krustyklimber: what is wrong with using skype? [01:05] seemed like there should be an easier way [01:06] Krustyklimber: to see the cam work, use vlc, or use google-talk i believe has chat without having to use skype [01:06] almoxarife: I'd feel _really_ stupid if I couldn't find a way to get shit into pastebin >:O [01:06] http://paste.ubuntu.com/1430945/ [01:06] i had to mod vmware when 12.10 came out already... [01:06] she doesn't have skype... [01:06] I don't have it on this computer yet either [01:06] Krustyklimber: did you manage to get to a terminal? [01:07] I installed cheese last night, and the cam will work there [01:07] Krustyklimber: i thought you allready had it downloaded. just needed to use a tool to put it on the usb properly [01:07] mensvaga: i been trying to think of a command line way to send the link to the channel, i am sure there is i suppose, but its way over my paygrade [01:07] I have three terminals open [01:07] dr willis I am sooooo lost [01:07] !pastebinit | almoxarife like this? [01:07] almoxarife like this?: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com [01:07] time to start thinking harder i guess [01:07] almoxarife: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1430945/ [01:07] it's tough to try and do everything I am advised to do :( [01:07] ** being quiet now [01:08] thinking harder??? I have a freakin headache again :P [01:08] I told ya, maybe I'm not smart enough to use ubuntu [01:08] zykotick9: i am talking about from command line echoing to channel the link [01:08] and that makes me sad [01:08] use xubuntu then :p [01:08] almoxarife: that's what patebinit does? [01:08] Krustyklimber: state your problem again. [01:08] you put the iso file on your hard drive somewhere, then use a tool to put it properly on the flash drive. [01:09] well first I was just trying to figure out how to use the cam on my puter to video chat with my gf (on YIM) ...then I was told to install 12.10... but I downloaded it wrong (I guess) then I was told to got get UNetbootin... I did... it won't open... now I am trying to check the space on my flash so I can retry to download 12.10 and now I am very frustrated and confused [01:09] almoxarife: you'd still have to copy/paste, unless you used exec in your irc client... [01:09] zykotick9: pastebinit provides a link, it does not slap it into the channel, unless you got the super duper one [01:09] i dont recall anyone saying you 'downloaded' it wrong [01:09] yer dr willis I have 12.10 in my downloads..... [01:09] are you making the installer on windows Krustyklimber ? use lili usb creator [01:09] and i dont see why space on the flash drive mattters [01:09] I installed UNetbootin and it won't open [01:10] right click and try running it as administrator as well [01:10] if there's not room I can't burn it to the flash, now can I? [01:10] ^ [01:10] the usb-disk-creator or unetbootin should work [01:10] !unetbootin [01:10] For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent [01:10] Krustyklimber: as far as your space "issue" is concerned, google "ubuntu terminal" and follow the appropriate documentation to find out how to open a terminal for your version of ubuntu. [01:10] Then run: df -h [01:10] Krustyklimber: you have the iso on hour hard drive? [01:10] I have three terminal open now [01:10] on your hard drive? [01:10] it WILL show you the space of everything that's currently mounted [01:11] Krustyklimber: pastebin the output of "df -h" [01:11] yes dr willis I have it in downloads... is that on my hd? ;) [01:11] theres no need for the iso file to be on the flash if you have a hard drive to keep it on [01:11] ok [01:11] Krustyklimber: you tell me.. i dont know what you are booted into [01:11] booted into??? greek to me again [01:12] mensvaga: the wifi is pci or usb? i forgot [01:12] almoxarife: usb [01:13] boot the system, download the iso, use the tool to put it on usb... [01:13] the tool? you mean UNetbootin? [01:13] if its in the downloads directory of your 12.04 install then you are allready for step 3 [01:13] unetbootin, or the usb-disk-creator tool [01:14] <_andyj_> [B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B [01:14] unetbootin won't open [01:14] <_andyj_> [B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B [01:14] _andyj_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:14] or the other tools at pendrivelinux site [01:14] clear [01:14] how did you install unetbootin? [01:14] almoxarife: you're looking for line 4000 [01:15] whoops, 4100 [01:15] pendrivelinux never started the download, that's why I went with unetbootin [01:15] pendrivelinux has a dozen different tools... not just one [01:15] How do I make it so that I still have my window decoration (i.e. the close, minimize and maximize button) shown when a window is in fullscreen in unity? [01:15] *maximized, not fullscreen [01:15] I just clicked download and unetbootin downlaoded [01:16] Krustyklimber: and the exact filename is? [01:16] I can't adjust my headphone volume in alsamixer is that normal [01:17] unetbootin-linux-581... it's just sitting there in my downloads folder (laughing at me) :P [01:17] mensvaga: pastebinit lsusb [01:17] no extension to it at all? [01:17] no .tar.gz or anything? [01:17] extension... no clue? [01:17] nope [01:18] I typed everything I see in the orange box [01:18] Krustyklimber: you have tried the usb-disk-creator tool first? [01:18] almoxarife: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1430960/ [01:18] I do not know how to try that tool? [01:18] Krustyklimber: run it,, follow the steps it gives.. [01:18] I am sorry I am not trying to be difficult :( [01:19] Does crashplan have a gui in ubuntu? [01:19] run what??? [01:19] i think the full anme ia 'usb-disk-creator' [01:19] as ive been saying several times now. [01:19] alusion_:yes [01:19] where would I find that? [01:19] erncic: how do I start it? [01:19] type it in a terminal, or use your unity search feature [01:19] almoxarife: the same thing happens with an old trusty belkin usb wlan adapter that I've been able to use for years. [01:20] alusion_: crashplan_desktop I think. [01:20] usb-disk-creator into a terminal? [01:20] In this case, I installed ubuntu server ~11.04, upgraded twice, or something, and usb wlan devices don't show up in ifconfig. [01:20] mensvaga: this is on 12.10? [01:20] yes [01:21] Description: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS [01:21] its 'usb-creator-gtk' here on 12.10 [01:21] whoops [01:21] erncic: from where? [01:21] 12.04 [01:21] the icon name may be called 'startup disk creator' [01:21] I am still on 12.04 if I am correct [01:21] on a side note, it does say that a new release is available, BUT do-release-upgrade says it can't find a new release [01:21] alusion_: /usr/bin === rafael is now known as Guest31420 [01:21] Krustyklimber: use lsb_release -a and see === Guest31420 is now known as martins_r [01:22] bah. I need to go take a shower. BRB 15 minutes I guess. [01:22] usb-disk-creator = command not found [01:22] its 'usb-creator-gtk' here on 12.10 <<<<<< try that one [01:22] "lsb -a"? [01:23] ok that opened a window that is a start up disk creator..... [01:23] there ya go... [01:24] mensvaga: usbcore: registered new interface driver rt2800usb , line 4904, it sees it, wrong driver perhaps? [01:24] brb I gotta go see if I can find a blank dvd.... [01:24] alusion_: sorry, /usr/local/bin [01:24] Krustyklimber: it puts it on flash drive... not cd.. [01:24] Krustyklimber: if you want it on cd.. thats even easier [01:25] it rubs the lotion? [01:25] wow so confused [01:25] erncic: thank you ! [01:25] Krustyklimber: the whole Point of these tools is to put the iso file on a usb/flash drive properly.... i dont see whats so confuseing about that [01:26] if you wanted to make a dvd of 12.10 thats also doable [01:26] but not witth those tools [01:26] so just click "make startup disk and pray? [01:27] you plugged in your usb flash? [01:27] yeah it's plugged in, I dunno how full it is though [01:27] it will erase it... so as i have said.. it wont metter [01:27] Krustyklimber: its going to be wiped, sure you want that? [01:28] last time you said you had the iso file on it... [01:28] whoa no way I have important homework on this flash drive!!! [01:28] then burn a dvd... [01:29] dr_willis: your patience sir is a model [01:29] and backup your homework ;) [01:29] almoxarife: and its about done... [01:29] what I can do is put all this onto my other flash... brb [01:29] yep ;) [01:29] or just put the iso ON the other flash drive... [01:30] one thing at a time :P [01:30] brb [01:30] it only needs to be like a 2 gb sized one [01:30] I connected my headphones to the 2.5mm jack on my laptop but no sound in the headphones but stil sound on the speakers, so I restarted and now the sound is on the headphones but not on my speakers even if I unplug the headphones [01:30] or just burn the thing to dvd if you got dvds [01:30] dr_willis: can you help me make a serial connection to my kerosene powered toaster? [01:30] My 12.10 x64 system almost always crashes (num and caps lock blinking) when my system goes in to standby; what can I do to diagnose this? [01:31] almoxarife: fill the bathtub with water... you have to turn the knobs clockwise..... [01:31] not counter clockwise.... [01:31] dr_willis: but it worked on 10.04? [01:31] ahhh sweet one of my other flashdrives is already empty :D [01:31] jump in... then... [01:32] lol ... i knew dr_willis had the solution ;) [01:32] click "make startup disk" right? [01:32] you filled in the info it wanted? [01:32] what iso to use an so forth? [01:33] everything is already "filled in" I think [01:33] we cant tell.. go for it then. [01:33] home downloads... 12.10 etc in one... my flash in the other [01:34] if you had a big enought flash drive you can run totally from flash ;) [01:34] In terminal how can I make output of apps like iftop look like http://cl.ly/LYsL instead of http://cl.ly/La5Q? Why are the lines drawn as "qqqqq"? Do I need to enable some sort of encoding? [01:34] going for it.... :) [01:35] wagtag: utf-8 encodeing perhaps [01:35] copying files..... [01:35] almoxarife: pretty sure it's using the correct driver. [01:35] dr_willis: Already using utf-8 for character encoding by default. [01:36] it does this with two different usb wlan devices. the other one is an old belkin. [01:36] wagtag: try in urxvt rxvt-unicode... i always have trouble with lines in gnome-terminal... YMMV [01:36] zykotick9: Thanks! I'll give that a try [01:36] mensvaga: so, its got all the needed 'stuff', that leaves an actual wifi connection [01:36] stuff [01:37] yeah. the stupid device just doesn't show up in ifconfig. [01:37] It goes "cool! It's a wireless USB device. let me configure these frequencies and shit. OK. Done. " wlan0 no show up. [01:38] mensvaga: you have a wifi server? [01:38] If by that you mean AP, yes, I have 2 of them. [01:38] installing :) [01:38] I'm using ubuntu 12.04 on a netbook right now and using wireless to talk connect to this chat ;) [01:39] I'm going to try to manually alias wlan0 to the driver using modprobe. [01:39] This is stupid. I was able to manually configure this stuff years ago using ndiswrapper and wpa supplicant. [01:39] mensvaga: good luck with that :) [01:40] how do i blacklist all wireless [01:40] anyone use a web control panel on ubuntu? [01:40] similar to cpanel? [01:40] almoxarife: have you ever had to get a 3com pci network card working by alias eth0 tulip? [01:40] !ebox [01:40] :) [01:40] zentyal is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Zentyal (Project formally known as eBox - including in Lucid/10.04). [01:40] ok installation complete... if I reboot it'll install 12.10? [01:40] You like zentyal? [01:40] mensvaga: i had a back rub once, close? :) , no i have not [01:41] almoxarife: that ages you :) It means you weren't using linux before 2000 / 1999 or so [01:42] mensvaga: my only network claim to fame was stripping out networkmanager from my HTPC server [01:43] I don't think restarting the pc is a good method for changing the sound output from speakers to headphones, can anyone help me out, if only to show me what to search for on the net to find a solution [01:43] mensvaga: i was using a z-100/120 running dos/cpm back in 81, that count? [01:43] cpm rocks [01:43] ok ready to restart.... wish me luck :P [01:43] bbiab [01:43] ;) had it on my c64 [01:44] almoxarife: shows you probably understand ISA and IRQs pretty well. [01:44] unless that ages me [01:44] s/ages/dates/ [01:44] hi all [01:44] I had a vic and a c64 then I forgot all of that stuff [01:44] mensvaga: i did the univac card punch thing, thats like ancient [01:44] almoxarife: I found a decent doc. gave me a starting point. I feel dumb for not starting there inthe first place. [01:45] Snurre86: you can change the output in the sound indicator > configuration [01:45] https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/internet/C/troubleshooting-wireless.html#troubleshooting-wireless-disabled [01:46] This is what xrandr brings up for me, now. How do I get my computer to actually display in 1680x1050 now? :o http://paste.ubuntu.com/1430992/ [01:46] i have a question about ubuntu 12.10 and its kernel.. im looking for good technical documentation to understand things a bit better.. anyone has a suggestion ? [01:46] almoxarife: well, yeah. back in the "linux days" you had to know what driver to use, tell the kernel to load it, then you had to tell it what device to associate with the driver. [01:46] xangua no i can not change the output in sound indicator > configuration [01:46] punch card stuff? really old. Not sayin' you haven't been around for a while doin' this stuff :) [01:47] I cant set my monitor to the right resolution. It keeps doing 1360x768 instead of 1366x768. nvidia settings isn't helping I even tried to edit the xorg.conf manually... no luck [01:48] Erin: are you sure you set your xorg.conf right? :x [01:48] Gwennifer_, pretty sure, I mean all i did was edit the one nvidia-settings made and changed 1360 to 1366 [01:48] Gwennifer_: you have not followed the link i showed you yet i assume, i dont see the resolution shown on the paste [01:48] xangua: If you mean "sound settings >output [01:49] Gwennifer_: it should be 'xrandr -s 1680x1050_60.00' [01:50] hrm this appears to be a deeper problem... xrandr only shows 1360x768 doesn't even list 1366x768 which is the correct resolution of this TV... 16:9 I guess I could use 1280x760 if I have to... [01:50] I don't remember having an issue last time I had this PC hooked up to this tv... [01:51] is it possible to make xrand work via a ssh connection? [01:51] almoxarife, if you export the $DISPLAY variable I think so. [01:52] almoxarife: I followed your link to the letter, then asked what to do next :l [01:52] awww man I restarted and no 12.10 :( [01:52] almoxarife: then I went AFK for supper, since I assumed you had left too [01:52] almoxarife, I think the syntax is "export DISPLAY=:0; xrandr" [01:52] Gwennifer_: did you not see a 'display' option with the new resolution? [01:53] I do it all the time to remotely setup a VNC server [01:53] phunyguy_t430s, thx I had done it b4 but forgot the syntax :-D [01:53] so does anyone know how I force a mode that isn't listed in xrandr ? [01:53] phunyguy_t430s: will have to try that, i want to tweak the server to plasma settings, thnks [01:54] Erin: Add the mode - xrandr --newmode 1366x768 85.500 1366 1494 1624 1798 768 770 776 795 +hsync -vsync [01:54] Erin: the mode needs to be created first [01:54] ahh yea thats right a modeline [01:54] almoxarife: nope [01:54] can anyone tell me how to check which version I have now? [01:54] haven't done it in forever was just googling that same thing :-D thx [01:56] what command line lists all the possible 'displays' ? [01:56] what command line lists all the possible 'displays' by id ? [01:57] hrm but now xrandr says it can't find mode 1366x768_85.5 ? [01:57] almoxarife, if you just type 'xrandr' it shows the outputs + display [01:57] dr willis you around? [01:58] Gwennifer_: would you like to try again? [01:58] Erin: if you used the same thing I typed, it would be 1366x768 (no _85.5) [01:59] erncic, yea it doesnt work I made my own modeline w/ cvt [01:59] lets see if mine works [01:59] almoxarife: wow. I found something random that worked. [01:59] sudo dhclient wlan0 FROZE [01:59] and it it got it to show up as an enabled device. [02:00] sudo lshw -C network [02:00] showed it as disabled before. [02:00] my computer doesn't seem to want to boot from the flashdrive [02:00] mensvaga: cool, FROZE? [02:00] dhclient just didn't work. [02:00] but it "unstuck" something somewhere. [02:00] arrrghhhhh (pulling what hair I have left) [02:00] mensvaga: is that a technical term? 'unstuck' [02:01] yessir. [02:01] it unstuck the thingy, [02:01] almoxarife: kay, now I have another mode I can't use. what next. [02:01] mensvaga: cool, but will it last thru a reboot? [02:01] almoxarife: no idea. [02:01] probably not :-/ [02:02] Gwennifer_: what mode do you want to work? [02:02] why am I getting this ?? cvt 1366 768 [02:02] # 1368x768 59.88 Hz (CVT) hsync: 47.79 kHz; pclk: 85.25 MHz [02:02] Modeline "1368x768_60.00" 85.25 1368 1440 1576 1784 768 771 781 798 -hsync +vsync [02:02] can anyone tell me how to check if I have updated to 12.10? [02:02] its giving me 1368x768 ... instead of 1366 [02:02] almoxarife: 1680x1050 [02:02] it doesn't appear to have booted from my flash [02:02] Erin: that would be the output of the command cvt [02:03] almoxarife, its giving me the wrong resolution though [02:04] hello thump thump... is this thing on? [02:04] Erin: or its giving you the nearest possible, why quibble over 2 digits [02:04] because it doesn't work [02:04] Gwennifer_: do you have 'pastebinit' installed? [02:04] almoxarife: I've given up for now and I'm going to do a release upgrade to a devel version away from LTS. [02:04] Thanks for your help / company :) [02:04] and it says it can't find the one I added thats 1366x768_60.00 [02:05] mensvaga: twas fun, see ya [02:05] Krustyklimber: is your bios set to boot usb first? [02:05] even though xrandr shows it! [02:05] almoxarife: newp [02:05] no clue? [02:05] Erin: I'm having precisely the same problem you are, tell me if you find a fix :o [02:05] Gwennifer_, this used to be fine on 12.04 [02:06] Gwennifer_: would you install it, pls, via terminal would be, sudo apt-get install pastebinit [02:06] but I don't think I used this tv on this pc since I upgraded to 12.10 till now [02:06] Krustyklimber: on some computers, at boot, you can hit a key and choose a temporary device to boot from. on mine it is enter, and then F12. Does yours do anything like that? [02:06] I have no idea what my bios settings are? [02:06] I'll try f12 [02:06] Erin: My graphics was fine on 11.04/12.04 too [02:06] brb [02:07] Krustyklimber: I am trying to stay out of your bios until I know there is no other way. [02:07] Krustyklimber : in terminal ... lsb_release -a [02:07] Erin: Is that a fresh install or did you just update? [02:08] Gwennifer_, updated [02:08] Erin: D: [02:08] Tex... "command not found" [02:08] Gwennifer_, whats funny is the virtual machine I run windows on can do 1366x768 lol! [02:08] but not ubuntu anymore... === brittnee is now known as girlincharge [02:08] Erin: W7 doesn't recognize my graphics either but it handles 1680x1050 fine [02:09] what is the $DISPLAY suppose to be with X-forwarding? [02:09] Almoxarife: kay? [02:09] Gwennifer_: kay what? [02:10] Almoxarife: kay, please? ._. [02:10] ok "no modules are available" [02:10] Almoxarife: you only told me to install the package pastebinit... === nicole is now known as Guest39380 [02:10] Gwennifer_: is it installed? [02:12] Gwennifer_, looks like im using 1280x720 :-\ [02:12] almoxarife: yes...? that's all that sudo apt-get install can do [02:13] ok I'll go try the f12 thing [02:13] my compiz environment doesnt working [02:13] Krustklimber: Under Release and Description it shows you the Ubuntu version you are running. Tex_Nick was answering your earlier question. [02:14] before i've installed an ati graphic driver [02:14] release and description... where do I find that... in terminal? === vjn_ is now known as vjn [02:14] Erin: I really need the larger resolution, though. Once you get used to all those other pixels, it messes with your workflow and everything to go back. :c [02:14] Krustyklimber, lsb_release -a [02:15] Gwennifer_, its driving me nuts too, Im trying to do something I can only do in windows, and now I have a 6 pixel scroll bar because of this.... [02:15] Gwennifer_: perhaps this is not a good time for longwinded command line input, the link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Adding_undetected_resolutions is what i use to get a resolution of my choosing on every install i ever used, good luck [02:15] hamster... all I get from that is "no command found" [02:15] my compiz enviroment doesnt working,i 've installed a ati driver before [02:15] Almoxarife: for the NTH time I've followed that multiple times [02:16] Krustyklimber, try uname -a [02:16] ok [02:16] Gwennifer_: alrighty then, perhaps its a unsolvable quirk \ [02:17] almoxarife, its a bug I guess. I am getting errors when doing it.... [02:17] have question [02:17] with my sd card [02:17] Erin: bug or operator error [02:17] that got "3.2.0-34-generic-pae #53-Ubuntu SMP Thu Nov 15 11:11:12 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux" [02:18] almoxarife, you know, you are a dick. I've added modes before it is giving me errors and giving the wrong resolution on the modeline in the first place [02:18] i formated f 32 type and i cant seem to be able to get it out of read mode [02:18] anyone have any idea [02:18] you act like this is hard, its simply not working as intended.... [02:18] andmy sd card reader is not on the locked position [02:18] Erin, before you get ahead of yourself, read this link http://thinksimplenow.com/happiness/dealing-with-difficult-people/ === girlincharge is now known as brittnee [02:19] Gwennifer_, i've been in here before when he has tried to be a deuche to people [02:19] Erin: have a nice day [02:19] Tweikable: can root write to it? [02:19] Hello all [02:19] idk [02:19] I'm having a bit of trouble with my USB drive. I hit this bug: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1821162 [02:19] i just know when i try and transper music over it says can storage is read only [02:19] I've been debugging and it seems that ehci_hcd and uhci_hcd aren't being loaded. [02:20] what if i reformat it [02:20] modprobe -a does nothing for either module [02:20] Gwennifer_, are you getting an error that starts with... X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist) [02:20] Tweikable: see if root can write to it [02:20] how do i do that [02:21] Erin: Which command are you using?

[02:22] Gwennifer_, when I do cvt 1366 768 60 it gives me 1368 for some reason [02:22] Gwennifer_, on this tv it is 1366:768 16:9 its an older HDTV [02:23] im just using it as a second display :-\ [02:23] anyone using blender 2.49 [02:23] ? [02:23] hety [02:24] hey ' [02:24] i was able to change the dir. to the storage device [02:25] but itestfile says command not found [02:26] Erin: If I find something I'll let you know, stay in here :o [02:26] but when i type test [02:26] that seems to do something [02:26] Gwennifer_, its gotta just be some kind of bug it worked fine in 12.04... are you on an nvidia card too ? [02:26] but idk what its doing [02:27] Hi, can anyone point me to a good video conversion tutorial via command line [02:27] if i reformat my sd card. will that allow me to make it a non read only [02:27] Erin: http://hd1080i.blogspot.com/2006/12/1080i-on-1366x768-resolution-problems.html <-- read! [02:29] vite : ffmpeg works great ... you can find tutorials on youTube [02:30] Tex_Nick: ffmpeg is creating 0 byte files for me [02:30] and its suppose to be deprecated (whatever that means) [02:30] Erin: No, actually. I'm on Intel's smallest on-chip. [02:30] Erin: It's actually on a duo-core, but it's still not-that-great. [02:31] vite : basic syntax is : ffmpeg -i myInputFile.flv -sameq muOutFile.avi [02:32] how can i see the progress bar in dd? [02:32] vite : change file extensions as required [02:32] almoxarife, while I do appreciate that. I already knew it was because of the chip in the tv. That doesn't help me solve my current issue. like I said this is just a second display so I can multi-task I have a 1080 tv hooked up also.... It worked fine on ubuntu 12.04 and now it doesn't work simple as that..... [02:33] Tex_Nick: I was missing the -i [02:33] heh [02:33] Erm... is there a program I can run to make my CPU and GPU warm up? [02:33] Rallias, you can run prime95 for the cpu [02:34] vite : the -i parameter specifies that the next entry is the input file [02:35] and the GPU? [02:40] can someone help me to get my tty1-6 working D: [02:42] Tex_Nick: thanks its working [02:42] good night === mike is now known as Guest49992 [02:43] vite : no problen ... have fun [02:43] what is the name of the program to sync the clock with internet servers? gpt? I remember it's a three letter package name starting with 'g' [02:44] Guest49992: ntpd [02:46] nope still not working D: [02:46] Gwennifer_, no luck? I can't seem to figure it out O-o [02:46] Erin: nope~ Still digging and learning. [02:47] somsip_, Thanks. How can I change the timezone? [02:47] Gwennifer_, i'm pretty sure its a bug, as in nothing we can do. I know for 100% fact it worked fine in 12.04 :-( [02:47] Erin: I'm pretty sure there is something we can do. at the very least, we could try and figure out why it works in 12.04 and then bring that over to 12.10 :o [02:48] Gwennifer_, we would likely need to be programmers for that. and I don't have a 12.04 install anymore to try to figure it out [02:50] Gwennifer_, what is your exact error? [02:50] Erin: It appears that my graphics EDID thingers just aren't being recognized [02:50] Guest49992: I beleive it works on UTC, so you would set your timezone using your desktop settings thingy [02:50] Erin: there's an intel driver, uhm, PPA that I can update with that I'm 80% sure will fix everything [02:51] hi peoples [02:51] Guest49992, click on the clock indicator & at the botton click "Time and Date Settings" [02:51] Erin: But, I think there's a more elegant way to do this. [02:52] Tex_Nick, What app does that run? [02:52] when I try to go to tty1 - tty6 it's just a black screen. anyone know how to fix? [02:53] hello.. is there any way how to make auto start up app. in linux ubuntu 12.04 LTS? [02:53] Erin: Do you know how to PM here? :U [02:53] Gwennifer_: /msg {user} [02:54] Tex_Nick, Thanks, I got it now. [02:54] Gwennifer_, yea hold on [02:54] Tex_Nick, somsip_, Thanks.

[02:54] hi guys im trying to set up a remote access to my rasp pi and im getting into command line fine but when i try and VNC to view the gui it says my pi is activly refusing the connection, [02:55] superfake123: try disabeling the framebuffer consoles perhaps. ive seen some x drivers also affect the consoles. === Guest49992 is now known as somerandomnick [02:55] pathetijester: you ran a vncserver ? [02:55] Tex_Nick, I already got it working. I found the DE time settings and installed ntp, now the time is correct [02:55] yes [02:56] pathetijester: check its logs. it may be failing to startup [02:56] how do I install the spelling corrector for libreoffice in ubuntu 12.10? [02:56] ok ill try that [02:58] dr_willis, to do that I just add vga=norma to /etc/default/grub ?

[03:00] pidgin isn't connecting to gtalk for some reason on 12.10 [03:01] pathetijester, it's just a text file. you can either nano it or just `tail ` [03:01] will i really need to uninstall telepathy to have it working again? [03:01] superfake123: im not sure how its done in 12.x any more [03:02] I am running a 12.04(64 bit) based distro, not sure if this is a buntu problem or if its a repackaging issue. ubuntu software center crashes before it finishes loading and I want to know if it is a common issue. [03:02] konam: does pidgin require the gtalk-plugin? [03:02] tail -f logfile will display it in realtime.. as it updates [03:02] almoxarife, italian [03:03] dustin_: try a sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgraded from a terminal [03:03] siganderson: verify you have 'myspell-italian' installed [03:03] then try the software center [03:04] dr_willis, ty, running those now [03:04] hurp [03:04] dustin_: sudo apt-get upgrade from a terminal no extra d on the end. ;;) [03:04] almoxarife, perfect, now it works :) thank you [03:04] siganderson: np [03:06] dr_willis, yeah I am familiar with it ;) just havent had to use it in a few years [03:07] dr_willis, its strange that all my installs have been working from gui for so long..... [03:08] i rarely ever use the software center. ;) [03:08] i dont eeally need any of its features it has over synaptic. [03:09] dr_willis, synaptic is stalling too.... thats why I am on here asking Q's [03:09] well the cli should give some errors/info at least [03:10] I am trying to get the new OS to do all the things that I had configured on the old one [03:10] i tend to just use the defaults for most things. ;) [03:11] dr_willis, it almost seems ununtu has deprecated synaptic ... it's not installed by default ... why have have they done that ?

[03:31] hello [03:32] I'm connecting to a vpn using my 11.10 and 10.04 machines. 10.04 machine on connecting gets set with the correct NS in resolv.conf by dhcp( i guess)... But the 11.10 gets set as 127.0.0.1 as nameserver in resolv.conf. What could be the issue guys? [03:32] So each time I connect with 11.10 I have to manually edit resolv.conf , its really annoying. [03:34] dr_willis, I have 3 major errors I have never encountered before-- http://pastebin.com/U21Ww4ar [03:36] Any guesses?

[03:40] When I send multiple haptic events in quick succession, sometimes there's a massive crash, but it's very stochastic. [03:40] i got a shitload of ATA errors with 12.04 and 12.10 [03:40] dmesg reports weird stuff [03:40] (By massive crash, I mean keyboard and mouse unresponsive, Magic SysRq does nothing, video updates a bit) [03:41] I thought it was an SDL bug, but I've tested non-SDL code doing the same thing (sending force feedback structs to /dev/input/eventx) and gotten the same crashes.

[03:51] one17: the machine you login from needs the private key, the machines you login to will only need public [03:53] Wut steps do I need to go through to make a new xorg.conf file using the command sudo X -configure? [03:54] one17, the id_rsa.pub is not a secret. you can hand that out to the kids at halloween or post it in channel. you need only protect the id_rsa [03:54] cool, so I guess it makes sense that it doesn't really matter if both are in the same place... should have been obvious :P [03:54] glutamatergic, scheduling while atomic is indicative of a driver bug [03:55] That's what I thought, but how can I find (and maybe replace) the driver? [03:56] glutamatergic, is there nothing around that message to indicate what is trying to be atomic [03:56] Just the name of the game executable.

[04:27] <\\Mr_C\\> it has bootable floppy image? [04:27] xangua, I noticed after installing 12.04 it was not the same as the live session. I was not sure if it was becuase I installed the ati driver I dunno. [04:28] xangua, a little more lag then the live session it seems. But gnomes window manager is a hell of alot nicer then kde's.

(I hate white backgrounds and like dark color settings.) [05:04] hi all, is there a possibility to use the "secure download manager" (sdm.pkg) with wine? [05:04] its needed to download windows from msdnaa [05:04] jondoes: try #winehq [05:05] jondoes, that's the one thing that doesn't work in Linux, with Wine, Mono, or otherwise.

[05:12] hello [05:13] Michael87, you can do that with sudo priveleges in terminal [05:13] topper4125: are you sure about that? \\Mr_C\\ experience, seems to suggest it is. [05:13] Michael87, or just tell what file manager are you using [05:14] Michael87, you can do that just go -->help--->about [05:15] Michael87, probably you'll have nautilus [05:15] Looking for where I found it... but ya.. have mini installed on an old netbook... only way it worked was to install mini, then add everything to it [05:16] Michael87, run into terminal gksu nautilus [05:16] topper4125: current version, or something older? [05:16] <\\Mr_C\\> hmm [05:16] Michael87, just type your password and you have privileges to move your files [05:16] <\\Mr_C\\> wher eis the net install image? [05:16] \\Mr_C\\: mini is netinstall...

[05:17] that link has the screenshots and step by step instructions to a non pae net install of Ubuntu\ [05:17] hamstereye: do you notice that when you run gksu nautilus and close it via terminal that the process continues to run in background? [05:17] How can I get 64-bit Chromium/Chrome? o3o [05:18] Gwennifer_: install 'chromium-browser' [05:18] almoxarife, i think so,why? [05:18] uhm, are you sure that'll give me the 64-bit version? [05:19] hamstereye: the command, use nautilus --no-desktop instead , that instance will close then [05:19] almoxarife, it will not if you dont close the terminal [05:20] Gwennifer_: that depends on the arch of the machine and OS as installed, got 64bit installed? [05:20] Anyone notice that the 12.10 CD image (763MB) is too big to fit on a CD (700MB)? Seems like a DVD might work, even if a bit of wasted space... [05:20] almoxarife, iam using 64 bit but iam trying to help a guy [05:20] hamstereye: it will if you close the app within the terminal [05:20] yus [05:21] almoxarife, yeah but we will not close the terminal or the app [05:21] hamstereye: ok [05:21] hamstereye, I did as you said and nautilus still won't give me permissions. [05:21] K'zan, does your motherboard support USB booting? I just find there are better uses for disks. [05:22] Michael87, try in the folders that you want to move files from chmod +x * [05:22] K`zan: ubuntu finally wont fit on a cd, [05:23] hamstereye, I think I understand what you where sayying. I'm tryying it now [05:23] almoxarife: Noticed that, fortunately I do have a DVD drive and some DVDs :-). [05:23] K`zan: it will if you use the 'mini.iso' install method [05:23] <\\Mr_C\\> hehe [05:23] <\\Mr_C\\> well [05:23] No biggie, got it, now to install it :). [05:23] <\\Mr_C\\> tried the net mini [05:23] K`zan, its worth the wasted dvd [05:23] Michael87, then try sudo cp file1(path) file2(path) [05:23] <\\Mr_C\\> now it says it needs cpu with [05:23] <\\Mr_C\\> cmov [05:24] hamstereye, thats ok it is working now XD [05:24] Michael87, after the chmod or before? [05:24] is lsb_release -si the best way to detect Ubuntu/Ubuntu-derived distributions? [05:25] Michael87, before. The command to open nautilius like that did the trick [05:25] Moskvah: I'll agree with that if it works out as well as 10.10 has here - zero problems even with the very first release of TDE (was KDE3, the one that works ;-)). [05:26] Michael87, yeah :D [05:26] Michael87, just dont close the terminal or the nautilus [05:26] \\Mr_C\\ http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1896482 [05:26] yeah I love kde but I'm loving the window snap of gnome so much more. And everything in unity is so awsome. Even when it changes colors by itself when the background changes [05:26] postmodern: lsb_release works on other distros also, geko for sure [05:27] K`zan:i personaly use 12.04 and am happy with it. seen no reason to update to 12.10 [05:28] \\Mr_C\\, doesn't look like there is any way around that one, except to download an old version... or goto puppy :( [05:28] window snap? [05:28] Moskvah: Spent weeks thrashing between 12.04 and 12.10, 10.10 was great therefore ... :-). [05:29] almoxarife, you know snaping windows. When you drag a window to the side of the screen and it fills up that side of the screen [05:29] K`zan: i remember the good old days of the 2.0 releases [05:29] ah [05:29] those were the days [05:31] Moskvah: Heh, my first linux install was 1991? Someone handed me a pile of 3.5 floppies and said "try this" (I was having a great case of the arse with SCO Xenix at the time). Never looked back :-). [05:32] geeze.. I feel noobish now... my first jump into the linux world was 10.10 :( (Then did arch for a while, but hated having to spend more time babysitting the OS, than i did 'using' the computer for what I wanted to use it for. [05:35] use windows [05:35] computers have a use? [05:35] I'd love to use Arch but I just can't get it set up the way I want it. [05:35] dr_willis, yup... sometimes... lol [05:35] My first Linux install was 11.04 :x [05:36] UEFI+Removable Boot+RAID+LUKS+LVM [05:36] topper4125: i know that feel haha [05:36] I had to move to a new HDD and didn't reinstall it because I had a bad case of GRUB, decided to try 12.10..then moved to KDE cause it was the most familiar :x [05:37] i had a similar luck with debian [05:37] alright I'm doing the installation. God I hope 12.10 will be smother then 12.04 was on my system. Also I hope I can replace ALL The orange colors on ubuntu. I do not like orange all the time with the ubuntu os [05:38] oh the huge manatee! oragange! ;) [05:38] Arch with XFCE was Real nice... very fast on my teeny Atom Processor, could never get debian to install... wifi didn't cooperate at all with it\ [05:39] I actually really like Unity I just want it on an Arch base. [05:39] * almoxarife installed condor-c/pm on a z100 just because [05:39] Or maybe enlightenment., [05:39] They have unity on arch now... LinuxActionShow podcast mentioned it a while back [05:39] I for one can't do arch. Thats all command line. I like having a gui [05:40] I really like the idea of things being simplified by choice rather than default. [05:40] Michael87, the first thing I do with arch is get the network up, and then install X, and a Desktop... takes 20ish mins. [05:40] Michael87: can you imagine the #arch channel help? go find it yourself! [05:40] Cause sometimes I have something that needs more in depth configuration than Ubuntu easily offers. [05:41] I don't really like Unity because it's pretty intrusive just visually [05:41] i miss the old days. things were more complicated, but when things were made more simple, i had more hope of the future [05:41] Emanon: what ever you can configure on arch you can likewise on ubuntu or any other linux OS [05:41] my only problem is unity is that it uses too much real estate on a netbook. [05:42] it uses too much real estate period, and then it has all those 3D effects :U [05:42] I'm aware the possibility is there but I like the idea of only having what I choose from the ground up. [05:42] So there is less problems with application interaction. [05:42] thanks topper4125 and almoxarife, but I'm fine learing how different os's work. I have windows 7 and I love that but I love the power of open source. And unity is looking so promising to me. well since windows 8 got rid of aero glass. That made increddibly p##ed off. [05:42] Mm, so why would you use arch vs ubuntu or debian? [05:43] Emanon try ubuntu mini... pretty much ubuntu's version of Arch, you only get what you install and nothing else (not even a calculator on install lol) [05:43] I think Microsoft should make their new UI look like one of those sci-fi holograms. [05:43] Michael87: keep win7 in a nice vm within linux, it will enjoy being used once in a while [05:43] ..I mean, on windows 9 [05:43] Gwennifer_ : whys that [05:44] I can't install Ubuntu over windows 8. [05:44] Does your UI look like it came from 2050? Kthxgoodbye :3 [05:44] almoxarife, lol very funny. === Tyler is now known as Guest60631 [05:44] why yes, yes it does [05:44] orly [05:44] Proveit :o [05:44] Tyler: Why not? Wut's the problem o_o [05:44] Are you doing a Wubi install or live disk? [05:45] I've tried both. Similar results. [05:45] <--Tyler [05:45] lol ubuntu just looks advanced as hell to me [05:45] :D [05:45] I don't think Wubi would work anyways because of the Microsoft's latest weirdness [05:45] Moskvah, think Halo :o [05:45] Anyway, I get the boot menu for ubuntu, but then I get a windows 8 error and it won't let me boot into ubuntu. [05:46] By boot menu, do you mean the one where you can pick which OS to boot? [05:46] when i think halo, all i think is the year 200 [05:46] Consider topper4125 I'm the kind of miserable a-hole that actually wants to use LFS eventually. [05:46] 2000* [05:46] I hope I don't regret the decision to move from mint to ubuntu. Or even from kde to unity. But the old menus just got old and I like the unity bar recoginises the background image color and changes itself [05:46] Michael87, if you're looking for a *buntu distro that gives you a win look a feel check this out: http://www.zorin-os.com/gallery.html [05:46] Windows grub should I say. Yes two options Windows and Ubuntu. Upon Ubuntu selection, I get a windows recovery error and reboot. [05:46] Tyler, you might need to do a full clean install. I.E., remove the OS on the system, and then install the OS youd like [05:47] Emanon, i would *LOVE* to try LFS, downloaded the PDF.... puts me to sleep every time though :( [05:47] topper4125, I know what Zorin is and frankly I didn't care much for it. Pain in the butt to customize. And again I'm liking the unity bar now [05:47] Michael87: just install IconTask Launcher aka Unity for KDE [05:47] I have a solid state drive and my motherboard is sabertooth z77 with Efi booting. [05:47] Tyler, do you have any data you'd like to save? If not, there's some other things we can try. [05:47] im liking where Gwennifer is going [05:48] I cannot remove some data, because it doesn't belong to me. [05:48] heoyea, I'll keep that in mind if I change my mind again from ubuntu back to mint. [05:48] My problem exactly topper4125. [05:48] save it on a disc/removable media source [05:48] Guest60631: sudo nautilus? [05:48] michael87... k... just offering. I have a friend that uses Zorin because he wanted the looks of win, but none of the virii, and pretty much does browser and web apps only on his system... so he doesn't miss win at all with it.\ [05:48] hello, i'm making a transition from debian to ubuntu. i have my home directory in a partition and the rest in the primary, i want to destroy my current debian install and replace it with ubuntu but keeping my home directory [05:48] Oh? Wut do you mean it doesn't belong to you? [05:49] !gksudo | tozen [05:49] tozen: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) [05:49] tozen: dont use 'sudo' with graphics apps [05:49] i am right now at the 'try ubuntu without installing' thing in a live usb and i need to cleanly destroy my previous install, what should i do? [05:49] oh god. all the paragraphs [05:49] Not permission errors, but sensitive information that is more or less company data. [05:49] Bfig: make a new user when u install [05:49] Bfig: since all the configs might no be the same [05:49] almoxarife: well gksudo [05:49] heoyea, wait a sec, you're going too fast [05:50] Bfig: Reformat the partitions you don't need and then manually partition and install [05:50] first of all i need to cleanly destroy my current install, how should i do that? [05:50] can i do that from inside the installer? i'm looking at the 'do something else' but i can't reformat partitions [05:51] the installer can format [05:51] Bfig: Cleanly destroy? Do you mean as in securely wipe it? Zeros or random data overwrite or something (takes a long time)? [05:51] theres a check box to do so [05:51] Guest60631: r u confident with what u do with companies data? [05:51] Bfig: run the installer and select something else on the partition part [05:51] Guest60631: Oh, okay. Wut I was going to suggest is that you uninstall Ubuntu, clean out GRUB, remake your Windows bootloader using a W8 installation disk(recovery disk: it's all the same really), and then see if you can install a different bootloader that isn't W8's [05:51] Bfig: use the partition for the install that had what ever it was you wanted reformated [05:52] ok, i'm on 'something else', i just pick the previous primary partition? [05:52] Bfig take a look at this (Video demonstration of what you are trying to do... i think) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cu84OkXzqlI [05:52] that will overwrite and reformat? [05:52] Guest60631: I had to do that to get W7 back from my 11.10 install, so, I can guide you through that. I'd recommend you get on here using a smartphone or something though so you can keep asking questions [05:52] Bfig: pick ur debian parition and select format, as for ur data dont format [05:52] Bfig: Yeah, just install and overwrite old / partition using the same username and then point fstab or whatever to new mount point (move /home location after install) [05:53] Bfig: make that ur /home [05:53] <\\Mr_C\\> cool [05:53] <\\Mr_C\\> damn small linux worked [05:53] <\\Mr_C\\> will try puppy retro next [05:53] ok great === Transfusion is now known as {{}} [05:53] glad to hear it \\Mr_C\\ [05:53] <\\Mr_C\\> they have a new puppy retro that works without that pae [05:54] I wish Steam would port more of their offerings to Linux. === {{}} is now known as Transfusion [05:54] is there a 'kitten' OS too?

[05:56] no [05:56] im pm him [05:56] I can help him o_o [05:56] as can i [05:56] :D [05:56] There's ChristBuntu and Satanic Edition so... [05:56] topper4125: see DaemonicApathy... link [05:56] But this is something I've had to do repeatedly :c [05:57] not bad \\Mr_C\\ could make a decent file/media server if its a second system [05:57] same <3 === samir is now known as csgeek [05:57] wait, is this install going to try saving the packages i already had installed on debian? [05:57] <\\Mr_C\\> whats actually cool is the pcmcia card i got from cisco will let it do wireless in dos or linux [05:58] Bfig: Was that an option? Just make sure you don't overwrite or touch your old /home partition [05:58] Bfig: its a reformat.. nothing will be saved if you format them [05:58] <\\Mr_C\\> they actually made a dos packet driver for the wireless [05:58] Thank you, topper4125. HML will be very useful for me. [05:58] Gwennifer_, would you like in on the convo? [05:58] yuh :o [05:58] Bfig: if /home/ is on its own partition dont format it [05:58] Bfig: Format or delete your old / first but make sure to leave whatever /dev/sda* /home was on [05:59] <\\Mr_C\\> wow that plop.at boot floppy is cool [05:59] how would i invite you into this convo i am having [05:59] DaemonicApathy, lol... yer welcome... :) [05:59] <\\Mr_C\\> brings old ass laptop back to life [05:59] Iunno [05:59] Couldn't we just do /join randomchannel [05:59] eh. i prefer a pm session [05:59] lol [06:00] PM sessions are 1-on-1. If you want more people, you might be better off using "/j ##MoskvahChat" or something. [06:00] thank you Daemon [06:01] Gwennifer_, try what the Daemon has spoketh of [06:02] i didn't destroy the partition and now it is trying to save files and delete selectively [06:02] this... is not encouraging... [06:02] hii [06:02] Bfig, that sounds painful [06:02] evry1 [06:03] Bfig: So start over and just reformat the partition first. [06:03] what;s that mean apache error Premature end of script headers: index.php [06:03] Moskvah I have no clue what channel you joined [06:03] :'/ [06:03] well looks like we have a predicament [06:03] i have no back button :((( [06:03] lol at chandan [06:03] Bfig: Or click the back button and reformat it from [06:03] /who nickname will show where they are at [06:03] Bfig: Oh! Lame! [06:04] Bfig: So yeah start over. [06:04] Moskvah, what channel are you in [06:04] Bfig: Smart installer is too smart :P [06:05] looks like a whole lot [06:06] Gwen, i return with tyler [06:06] hello [06:06] Moskvah, which channel did you go to? [06:06] lets just leave it here. tdhz77 is Tyler [06:06] Okay. [06:06] Where is he at the moment. [06:06] Yes thats me [06:06] Hello [06:07] PicCard: hey [06:07] Gwennifer_, win is giving him an error which is making him reboot everytime he tries to boot on Ubuntu, using the win boot service of course [06:07] yuh, I am aware, but where is he in the process of fixing this? [06:07] in the process of scrubbing out GRUB so he can reinstall it properly, potentially repairing W8 bootloader, wut? [06:07] apparently, he has tried that, yet to no avail [06:07] I've got a grub rescue command up [06:08] have you tried to clean out the Grub with the win8 cd? [06:08] Yes, I have. I also have tried BCD. [06:08] He's uninstalled/removed GRUB? :o [06:08] i somehow doubt that, but i have been wrong before [06:08] I doubt I have removed grub. [06:09] but I've been wrong before [06:09] It turns out that Ubuntu disables .htaccess by default. Turning it on is very simple. First off… you need to allow it in your apache configuration. [06:09] yeah don't do that anymore... [06:09] Anywho, do state the issues at hand, so Gwennifer can educate [06:09] you just wasted hours of my time [06:09] thanks [06:10] I will do everything in speed. [06:10] When I boot ubuntu from disc now I get the grub command, so maybe I did delete grub? [06:10] I wonder how long until Google Fiber comes to my area. [06:11] What's the best software to use for integrating with an ipod [06:11] Gwennifer_, how educated are you in the trade of ubuntu [06:11] Ycarene: That's subjective, I personally like banshee. [06:11] Not very, but I've had to scrub bootloaders like 20x in the past year :x [06:12] whys that? [06:12] if you get the grub prompt you may have deleted the grub files/partion.. [06:12] Correction, what's the least "crashy" way to interface with an ipod? [06:12] Booted with Ubuntu from UEFI disc from motherboard. Now I got "boot security disabled from Windows" [06:12] We were trying different distros and eventually it was just easier to scrub Grub and recover Window's bootloader [06:12] !best | Ycarene [06:12] Ycarene: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel.

[06:13] Does it make sense to install Ubuntu to SSD with Windows, or should I stay away and make new partition on 2nd HD. [06:13] Wait, how many partitions do you have? o3o [06:14] tdhz77: i tend to kep the 2 os's on seperate hds [06:14] he has about 6 ssd [06:14] good question I'll ask ubuntu [06:14] yes 6 SSD [06:15] so id install on 1 ssd and keep windows on another [06:15] Ok. Dr_willis is the man. He helped me over 6 years ago get started on the ubuntu train. [06:15] yus [06:16] starting to get more into the grubby side of things, which I dunno much about, wut I do know is how to recover Windows from various states of disrepair :3 [06:16] I want ext4 + swap + where do I put /boot [06:16] Tyler, if ever you have the option, never have partitions on one ssd/hdd [06:16] Aparrently I shouldn't play TF2 Co-Op while uploading stuff to google music and downloading EverQuest... [06:16] Moskvah could you explain that a little more please? [06:16] Does EQ even work on Ubuntu? [06:16] Emanon, you crazy bastard [06:16] ouyes: Was it the cpu that overheated? [06:16] Wine Gwennifer_. [06:16] Same thing D: [06:17] Seems to so far. [06:17] Haven't finished the initial update yet but it seems to be doing well so far. [06:17] bobo37773, I think it is the GPU [06:18] 3600mB or so out of 8123mB. [06:18] Tyler, if you are going to ever install an os on a hard drive/ solid state drive, always have that one drive dedicated to that os. and if another OS is required, another disk is better. As if you lose a HDD with two OS on it, you lose both, but with two HDD, and one lost, you only lose one. [06:18] tdhz77: /boot/ is normally not needed these days [06:18] Google Music works pretty flawlessly though. [06:18] "The Installer has detected that the following disk have mounted part ions" /dev/sdc /dev/sdd [06:18] ouyes: Oh not sure then. Tried to help people troubleshoot bumblebee optimus stuff in the past. Has always been an endless nightmare for me. Good luck. Keep asking [06:19] dr_willis: having a separate /boot is needed for raid/luks the latter of which I HIGHLY recommend. [06:19] i never use raid or luks.. i see way to many people in here with issues with them [06:19] Is /boot needed for UEFI booting? Or did I read wrong. [06:19] bobo37773, thanks [06:19] WELP I'm out of my league :3 [06:19] ouyes: Yeah wish I could help more :/ [06:20] but this is where people come when they have problems. ;) [06:20] I actually haven't had any issue with LUKS on ubuntu. [06:20] It's raid that is unsupported on 12.10. [06:20] Gwennifer_, thats quite alright. we still love you for who you are [06:20] when in doubt. i keep it simple [06:20] waitait === Gwennifer_ is now known as Gwennifer [06:20] whatchu talkin bout willis [06:21] its never simple [06:21] Me too dr_willis, single processor, single drive, single gig of ram, and a single OS [06:21] bbl.. gotta work at my real job. [06:21] topper, id like the benifit of the doubt. [06:21] I like to put mbr (or efi if using that) and /boot on a removable drive and then a LUKScrypted LV on the actual hard disk. [06:21] :U [06:22] I understood most of those words [06:22] lol Moskvah [06:22] Maybe if I sit in here long enough I'll learn all of them [06:22] tdhz77: Why would you need a seperate /boot if grub is installed to the disk (/dev/sda) [06:22] Still using ext4 though, though I think 13.04 I'll probably switch to btrfs if it's stable. [06:22] topper, id love more power of which i dont need, than to need the power and not have it [06:23] Primary or logical partition? logical? [06:23] tdhz77: Depends. How many partitions are on the disk you are trying to install to? [06:24] 3 [06:24] this will be 4 [06:24] hi. i have chrooted into lubuntu from opensuse. how can i run graphical application installed inside lubuntu from here opensuse? [06:24] Linux Swap, Windows recovery/Windows [06:24] help please [06:24] tdhz77: Max is 4 primary partions per disk [06:24] tdhz77: At least that's my understanding [06:24] ya... me to... would love a 8+ core, 64 Bit, with gig's and gigs of ram & a multiTB SSD, but the wife says no... so, stuck with solitaire being the most intense game on my system. [06:25] topper, what she doesnt know, wont hurt her ;) [06:25] hi guys! need help with nvidia drivers [06:25] strood, we all need help [06:25] i find myself having to rebuild the nvidia drivers every time i reboot for some reason. I log into recovery and run the nvidia-installer, then resume normal boot and everything works fine [06:25] I install boot loader on the exact partition that I just created. Correct? /devsda4 [06:25] feel for you bro [06:25] if however i reboot first, it doesn't work [06:25] topper4125: I'm running an 64bit octocore with 6g ram and 750 hdd [06:26] !ask | stroodlepup [06:26] stroodlepup: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily).

[07:53] thanks [07:53] zykotick9: how do you want to add a user if not using root/sudo? [07:53] TakeItEZ: you'd need root, or an account that IS in sudo already. [07:53] yeah, I can enter screen under sudo [07:54] zykotick9: sure, so in example above "username" != actual username [07:54] though I really don't want to use sudo to use screen [07:54] zykotick9: for you: sudo adduser user sudo user= username to be added to userlist and not the actual username who already is using sudo [07:55] TakeItEZ: if they can't use sudo, trying to use "sudo" is pointless... [07:55] it must be permissions of a file which was reset... I've tried setting the permissions with chmod of the files listed on the websites as primary culprits, though it didn't work [07:55] thanks for your help TakeItEZ [07:55] So I'm really confused about UEFI booting.

[07:58] I'm not certain... how would I check? [07:58] J_Hughes: " mount | grep devpts" is it mounted/in use? [07:58] ok deper29, I'll google chain load, thanks. [07:58] J_Hughes: no output = not mounted or1 line output=mounted [07:58] would I just run the command mount | grep devpts ? [07:58] J_Hughes: yes [07:59] yeah, it's not mounted then because when I run that there's no output [07:59] J_Hughes: sudo mkdir /dev/pts && sudo mount -t devpts /dev/ptmx /dev/pts [07:59] J_Hughes: then try screen again, without sudo [08:00] anybody up?

I'm on Xubuntu 12.10 AMD64 (but this is primarily an Ubuntu-related problem).

[11:17] monkeydust: ok don't get that message. wasn't there also something about the starting blocks being multiple of 512? [11:17] awestroke: but with this you can https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingPAE [11:17] but does this also apply for end blocks?

[11:18] Hello, World! [11:18] ati drivers are causing hangups, is there some sort of log I can consult to see why they broke down? [11:18] ewook: I don't know but I think the amd gfx x64 drivers are bugged [11:19] fglrx is the culprit [11:19] strange problem: I have the "sock_proxy" env var set, and I don't know who/what set it. [11:19] and I can't seem to get rid of it :) [11:19] it did work with lubuntu x64 though [11:19] belgianguy: which ATI and which release please? [11:19] any idea? [11:19] awestroke: ah.. [11:20] (and it's still there after a reboot) [11:20] ActionParsnip: FirePro M7820 Mobility , FGLRX 12.11 beta [11:21] I know it's a beta, but it isn't supposed to crash like that [11:21] belgianguy: 12.10 isn't beta..its released. Look at the version name :) [11:21] ActionParsnip: Catalyst 12.11 beta IIRC, not Ubuntu :) [11:22] belgianguy: which release of Ubuntu? [11:22] 12.10 [11:22] 64 bit [11:22] belgianguy: have you tried the stable driver? [11:22] belgianguy: "beta drivers" will be unstable by nature [11:22] ActionParsnip: yes, but that also caused hangups, also those seemed to happen in the browser mostly [11:22] problem: server is gateway. It share Inet to other machines. But It can't ping other machines on his network. why? [11:23] ActionParsnip: Steam needs the beta driver, :( [11:23] belgianguy: can you pastebin the output of: sudo lshw -C display [11:23] CoderInTank try #ubuntu-server [11:23] belgianguy: yeah, steam also says to enable the xorg edgers ppa which is a bad idea [11:23] #join #ubuntu-server [11:24] CoderInTank it's /join [11:24] ok [11:24] ActionParsnip: yeah, I got the driver from the AMD site, as I didn't want to enable _all_ prerelease updates [11:25] ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/20p69egD [11:26] belgianguy: all I can recommend is report a bug. You could use XFCE, LXDE etc which don't need compositing to exist [11:26] any recommendation for cd/dvd catalog app on ubuntu? [11:27] ActionParsnip: ah, is there some log I could check for why and how it crashed? [11:27] How do I make cp copy a file, WITHOUT also copying modes?

Thumbnails still aren't back. :( [11:38] could u tell me which is more popular 1? [11:38] thurrgash: http://man.cx/ has the man pages for the commands [11:38] thanks alot! :) [11:38] and for some reason, I don't have a ~/.local/share/mime [11:38] thurrgash: there is no way of knowing which is most popular [11:39] thurrgash: just read the man pages of the commands you've seen, there is a man page for each command [11:39] kiamo: you already included the cd as a repo/source with apt-cdrom? [11:39] how do I do that? [11:39] ok [11:39] hi [11:40] halloo ActionParsnip help [11:40] kiamo: are you using an install cd/usb?

[11:41] i downloaded the iso, and made a usb install stick [11:42] shree: you could install something like xfce4 package then use the to get a usable OS and you can troubleshoot from === lesshaste is now known as Guest56540 [11:42] kiamo: what did you d/l? [11:42] kiamo: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? [11:42] Actionparsnip no [11:42] kiamo: how did you know it was complete and error free? [11:42] it installed... [11:42] haha [11:43] but then I plugged it in and installed it, but it failed mid way and I had to launch a terminal and mount a cdrom thing manually (as directed by ask ubuntu) [11:44] ActionParsnip: update the same shall i reboot now [11:44] mount -o loop /dev/sdb1 /cdrom [11:44] that's what I did to get it to install [11:44] that seems an odd mount command.. [11:44] kiamo: it should not need that.... [11:45] hmm do you think i should just install again [11:45] find another iso [11:45] http://askubuntu.com/questions/127398/usb-drive-install-of-ubuntu-12-04-server-fails-cant-find-components-from-cd-r [11:45] thats the problem I had, and how I solved it. [11:46] thats for a server.. so seems odd you need to do it on a desktop install [11:46] i installed server [11:46] but I want a gui on it too haha [11:46] ActionParsnip : NPP_Initialize : called [11:47] this debuglog is there [11:47] install xfce4 [11:48] thats the plan heoyea [11:48] kiamo: just MD5 test the IOS, if the hash matches then the file is fine [11:48] kiamo: then just install the desktop OS if you want a desktop OS [11:49] sudo apt-get install xfce4 then [11:49] Hello [11:49] how do I check the md5? [11:50] noideer [11:50] heoyea: he has a server iso [11:50] Probably be better off asking on the forums [11:50] almoxarife: yea doesnt matter [11:50] kiamo http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM [11:51] Be better off using a xubuntu desktop cd if you want xubuntu.. [11:51] !md5 | kiamo [11:51] kiamo: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [11:51] kiamo: start from the beginning, get a desktop iso, pick a flavor, then install it, using a server iso then adding a desktop is a bit backwards [11:51] kiamo: couldn't use the web to search? [11:52] in ubuntu in terminal i can use tabulator after i type apt-get and then get more commands and not the files in current dir. is this an application or something? i want the same fucntion on my debian server :) [11:52] kiamo: what type of network connection do you have? [11:53] 100mb [11:53] it's up [11:53] kiamo: wifi or ethernet>? [11:53] yea maybe I should just install the desktop version [11:53] ethernet [11:54] hello [11:54] just testing [11:54] sliddjur: add bash_completion to ur shellrc [11:55] kiamo: if you have that fast a eth use the mini.iso, thats the alternate install method, all the files are d/l at the time of install [11:55] sliddjur: you normally dont use apt-get on files .. the bash completion is smart . :) [11:55] sounds interesting. Alternative ubuntu yea? [11:55] kiamo: yes [11:56] heoyea: where is shellrc? im using putty to connect to my ubuntu server at the moment === branant_ is now known as branant [11:56] ~/.bashrc [11:57] i like linux putty, nice and organized [11:58] almoxarife: i just use 'ssh' in a terminal :) [11:58] sliddjur: this is a normal server? or on some vpn? or somthing else unusual? [11:59] ActionParsnip: sounds complicated [11:59] ssh ip# is complex? :) [11:59] dr_willis: its a normal ubuntu 10 server. just virtual [11:59] almoxarife: ssh -X -C user@server [11:59] i use windows putty to connect [11:59] sliddjur: odd that it dosent have bash completing working by default [11:59] is the same thing possible to get for debian? [11:59] sliddjur: any linux system [11:59] bash completion is a feature of bash. :) [12:00] differnt disrtos have differnt setups for it. [12:00] can i restore my backup files on any other computer running linux [12:00] mustafa_: sure [12:00] ok heoyea , do I just add the line to my shellrc? [12:00] ActionParsnip: what is the -C for ? [12:01] do i use the same bash if i go sudo? [12:01] omg, i did it [12:01] thanks for the help [12:01] NickServer [12:01] almoxarife: It enables compression of all data streams. [12:01] almoxarife: compression, makes the X forwarding faster :) [12:02] NickServ [12:02] How can I cp a file, without preserving mode ? [12:02] ActionParsnip: I'm actually wondering, the manual claims that compression might lower the speed over very fast networks, but this seems unreasonable considering how fast CPUs are these days. [12:03] ActionParsnip: i got seven places to ssh into, couldnt i just please use putty and click away to a password that gets me into the app that i want to start at the site? pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee [12:03] sliddjur: u might have to install it also, not sure if server version has it installed by defalut [12:03] sliddjur: just install bash-completion [12:03] almoxarife: if you wanted, I use scripts [12:03] gsommer: You might be interested in the --no-preserve= flag, which takes a list of attributes not to be preserved. [12:03] ActionParsnip: the compression is a server setting? [12:04] almoxarife: no, the client sets compression off or on [12:04] ActionParsnip: is it noticeable? === branant_ is now known as branant [12:06] almoxarife: I think so [12:06] srhb, Yes, I've read that in the man page - sadly that does not work... [12:07] ActionParsnip: seems compression is default in putty [12:08] gsommer: Are you sure that your destination attribute defaults are not just what they were at the source as well? What exactly are you trying to accomplish? [12:08] heoyea: thanks. i just had to install, and relog. its working now. thanks! [12:09] sliddjur: no probs, probally want to try zsh next if u like autocompletion [12:09] srhb, Yes, I'm sure.... Just checked the changelog for coreutils.... Seems it's a known issue - which is fixed in 8.20 :/ BEfore that, cp was unable to correctly follow umask :/ [12:09] can i restore my files even with system conf on another linux computer with different ubuntu version [12:10] mustafa_: most of it. not all of it [12:10] gsommer: Funky. Good find though. [12:10] may be just my data files [12:10] srhb, from NEWS: cp --no-preserve=mode now no longer preserves the original file's [12:10] permissions but correctly sets mode specified by 0666 & ~umask [12:11] any recommendation on tacking my backup [12:11] mustafa_: you can scp stuff over thje lan to other pcs if you wanted.. [12:11] Anychange to get coreutils bumbed to 8.20 in Ubuntu then ? [12:13] i saw the deja cup its says daily backup if i set it on daily backup to a destination pc on the network and it wasnt there on some days is it skip the backup or some error will be happen and what if i used another backup program [12:14] gsommer: Yes, you can write a bug report that states that it is fixed upstream. If it's not there already. === Simurg is now known as ElixirVitae [12:14] err.. you may want to add some puncation marks to that question... ;) [12:15] if you are telling it to backup to a loation thats not there.. i imagine yes.. it will skipp the backup and give an error. [12:16] srhb, ok thanks.. I think I'll statically compile a coreutils for myself - and just replace my "cp"... [12:17] gsommer: Scary! Good luck. :D [12:17] i saw the deja cup its says daily backup if i set it on daily backup to a destination pc on the network and it wasnt there on some days is it skip the backup or some error will be happen ? [12:19] srhb, yeah, seems configure script does not have direct support for enable static compiling... Guess I'll need to modify makefile, if I can't just enable CFLAGS for it [12:19] gsommer: You might also want to try grabbing the raring ringtail version of coreutils, but again, watch out for incompatibilities. :) As long as you have a LiveCD ready to revert, all should be fine. [12:20] i saw the deja cup its says daily backup if i set it on daily backup to a destination pc on the network and it wasnt on the network on some days is it skip the backup or some error will be happen ? [12:21] hi there, I want to make it so that "sudo route add -net 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 gw " is run when I connect to my vpn, is there a nice way of making this happen? [12:22] gsommer: You can even try using pinning to make sure it's handled by apt correctly. [12:23] i saw the deja cup its says daily backup if i set it on daily backup to a destination pc on the network and it wasnt on the network on some days is it skip the backup or some error will be happen ?any suggestion [12:23] mustafa_: it would make sence that it would SKIP if the location is not there.. and Give out some ERROR... [12:24] srhb, I can confirm my statically linked "cp" from coreutil 8.20 works like a charm... I can now correctly cp files! :) [12:24] gsommer: Grats. :) Nice to know.

In what sense? I must say, the interface greatly interests me, and I'm hoping we'll see some Linux clones soon. [12:30] Apparently my computer has a license "baked in" in the BIOS, not sure how that works. [12:30] vrex let's keep it to "controversial", like ubuntu's unity ;) [12:30] srhb: linux clones? how do you mean that? [12:30] lol okay :P [12:30] srhb: win8 is a clone of unity? =) [12:31] irimi: Linux versions of the metro interface. [12:31] vrex: i walked in to best-buy, i ask where the tablets are, this kind 18'ish 'software' assistant wants to know if i want a win8 tablet :) , noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo [12:31] sliddjur: I don't think they're that similar. [12:31] srhb: hope not. but thx :) [12:32] I thought that the best part of windows 8 would be on a table,yet to actually use it on a tabletyet though [12:33] vrex: I think the most awesome thing is the cleanness in transferring from phone to tablet to laptop. The convergence is a mighty fine idea, I think. I'm sure we'll see something similar soon enough from Android, and it's only a matter of time before it follows over to desktop unices. [12:35] Yeah I bought a computerrecently that camewith windows8 I couldnt even figure out how to get to the login screen. I had to google it on my phone, you have to use your mouse to drag the screen like a tablet. anywaynow that has windows 7/linux mint on it now, no more windows 8 [12:37] bofff [12:37] It's very odd [12:37] Well, I plan to buy a Dell XPS 8500. [12:37] Does somebody know if it has UEFI or those odd things? [12:37] vrex: is it screen touch? [12:38] No it wasnt [12:38] vrex: damms005 that issue would suit better into the oftopic channel :) [12:38] Probably shoulda, too late now [12:39] hi [12:39] vrex, when you installed Ubuntu, what did you have to do? === Albastos is now known as Albastos|off [12:40] What do you mean?

[16:02] srhb: I think it has an intel and ati 6770m [16:03] the fan runs Hard most of the time [16:03] JDogHerman: you are forgetting that mac OS is made specifically for the hardware, so the life will be shorter with any other OS [16:03] JDogHerman: Have you seen this: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/30443/determining-if-gpu-switching-works [16:03] JDogHerman: if you run: sudo lshw -C display do you see an INtel GPU and an Nvidia GPU?

That's not my use case. What I want to do is to eave my own hardware into a cloud; to do what seems not to be explained in the texts.

[18:31] Hello, is there any way to change TTY font to OpenType font? [18:32] cardpuncher, ye I had windows, but i didn't uncheck the format laptop option when installed ubuntu [18:32] bangarang: you may want to install windows after formatting to NTFS (the CD should suggest that) and then Ubuntu, if doing so won't delete important files (it's basically going to wipe everything) [18:32] ye it did.. now how do I install windows lol *ironic question* [18:33] bangarang: yeah, do what cardpuncher says. You can do it the other way around, but it's more of a hassle. [18:33] Otherwise you'll need to partition your drive, format to NTFS your partition, and play with the bootloader. There are tutos for that but it's not straightforward. [18:33] bangarang: boot with the windows CD and format the entire drive (or partition), then continue to install. Windows should ask to format the drive anyway. [18:34] so.. make a partition.. format it to NFTS and then install window eh? [18:34] nope, insert windows Cd, boot, format, finish windows install. And then install Ubuntu. [18:34] does anyone know why all of my usb storage devices mount as root when plugged in? [18:34] cardpuncher, and without loosing ubuntu stuff ?? [18:35] bangarang: do you have stuff you need from ubuntu? or is your ubuntu pretty much a fresh install?

[18:53] nikolam, I'd guess it depends on nautilus so you get the usual save/open dialogs, and the other packages will have similar reasons. [18:53] Sheikhmak: it depends, is it compiled with tcp wrapper support ? [18:54] nikolam, if you want something lightweight, I'd recommend just weaving it together with OpenCV and PYthon. [18:54] Baribal, that sounds strange, since it is GTK application, to depent on nautilus for such things. [18:54] nikolam: guvcview [18:54] !info guvcview [18:54] guvcview (source: guvcview): GTK+ base UVC Viewer. In component universe, is extra. Version 1.5.3-0ubuntu1 (quantal), package size 237 kB, installed size 751 kB (Only available for linux-any) [18:54] ikonia, is the default package compiled with wrapper support I didn't compiling it myself? [18:54] *compile [18:54] i will try guvcview, thanks ActionParsnip [18:55] nikolam: its default in Lubuntu, may have fewer deps.... [18:55] Sheikhmak: doubtful [18:55] i'd test it, but i'm going on the road, lol. wrong time to mess with that ikonia [18:55] webcams are creepy [18:56] hi, could anyone help me with my dual monitors problem, pls? [18:56] I'd actually love ubuntu to come up with like a kitchen tool, where you can select your default apps, [18:57] you can already [18:57] how? [18:58] you select what apps you want to be default for each file type [18:58] oh no i meant at install [18:58] it's called netinstall [18:58] you pick what you want to install [18:59] hm thanks will look at it funny enough i'm setting up cobbler right now, i'll test it [18:59] Sheikhmak: i know what you mean but its not very ubuntu [19:00] Sheikhmak: its for the lay person so they just install a default set of apps to cater for people who are not familiar with computers [19:01] Sheikhmak: an alternate ISO would be nice with a package selection which you can choose but sadly all you have is customizing the ISO, or simply hauling off what you dislike and installing what you do [19:02] Sheikhmak: the old Mandrake installer had a selection method for packaging, it was cool [19:03] ActionParsnip, yeah that'll be awesome, and I don't understand why there are some forced packages, for xubuntu for instance, I don't want thunar, or parole, they nice, but not suitable, I'd rather select vlc, or nautilus. [19:03] hello ! [19:03] any reason why when i try to access the hdd;s, this access is very slow [19:03] but ActionParsnip if you try to take those out, you are uninstalling the entire desktop package [19:04] Sheikhmak: you'll need to remaster the ISO as you wish, or install minimal ubuntu, then install xfce, lightdm and nautilus etc. build up from minimal [19:04] Sheikhmak: the metapackage is hollow, it doesn't remove anything [19:04] and why does my harddrives are a requence of letters and numbers instead of 211GB Volume for ex [19:05] sequence* [19:05] ActionParsnip yeah, i'd really like to try minimal ubuntu out, only heard of it today. [19:05] m3pow: there is a swap space and a system partition, why is that bad? [19:06] Sheikhmak: its good fun, just don't use metapackages for the desktop? [19:06] :) [19:06] i access the files VERY slow === flox`` is now known as flox [19:06] comparing to 12.04 where was very fast [19:06] m3pow: that's not down to partitioning [19:06] i didn't said that [19:06] m3pow: so what are you saying..? [19:07] if i load files in program ..say rhythmbox and close it [19:07] i can't get them back ...they are marked as missing [19:07] and have to reload the folder..over and over again [19:07] + the access through home folder is very slow-ish [19:07] m3pow: so the config of rhythmnbox isn't sticking? [19:07] yes [19:08] hello can anyone please help me find the repos of libreoffice writer in github ... I've been trying it for too long so thought I might put it through IRC [19:08] it's like the destination changed [19:08] i did not have this issue in 12.04 [19:08] m3pow: so how is that related to "and why does my harddrives are a requence of letters and numbers istead of 211GB Volume for ex" [19:08] everything worked well there and fast [19:08] my 211gb volume is 5066DA4966DA2f88 [19:09] rushboy: git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core [19:09] m3pow: Where do you get that number from? [19:09] home folder ..near the close/minimize/maximize buttons [19:09] in the bar [19:10] Thats the filesystem label then. [19:10] m3pow: if you run: sudo blkid do you see the same? [19:10] ok my ubuntu 12.10 broke. all i did was get the latest softare updates, and now it's stuck in a low res, won't use my external TV anymore, and when i log in, all i get is a desktop wallpaper and a mouse cursor. Unity NEVER appears. [19:10] ok and what changes so that when i load files in rhythmbox ...and close it. it can;t find those anymore [19:10] like the path changed [19:10] the laptop has nvidia graphics. it was fine before i got the updates... but now my system is BRICKED. i can't do anything with no UI... [19:10] Lazure: do you use proprietary video drivers? [19:10] same thing happends with torrent files, can't locate them [19:11] i HAVE to use them ActionParsnip, i HAVE to, because if i use nouveau it won't even get into X. my laptop's GPU isn't supported by nouveau. [19:11] Lazure: low res isn't bricked. If you bork a BIOS upgrade then it's brincked [19:11] Lazure: I never said you didn't. All I asked was DO you? [19:11] yes ActionParsnip is the same [19:11] low res and i can't access any apps because it's a plain desktop screen with no UI [19:11] yeah i do ActionParsnip [19:11] those 2 partitions are NTFS though ...should that affect something ? [19:11] i need some help applying a patch to the kernel [19:11] and it seems the updates messed it up [19:11] Lazure: it is rare for proprietary drivers to survive release changes [19:11] How can I set the desktop background to some solid color, from a script? [19:12] Lazure: its far from bricked [19:12] Lazure: remove the proprietary driver, reboot then reinstall the driver. Done [19:12] how do i do that with no UI? [19:12] past the login screen i have no way to launch apps [19:12] Lazure: press CTRL+ALT+T do you get a terminal? [19:13] yeah, it appears stuck in the corner with no caption buttons or anything tho [19:13] Lazure: thought you said you had no way to launch apps [19:13] well, not the traditional way [19:13] i didn't know about that shortcut to bring terminal up tho [19:13] but even then, i don't know the commands [19:13] Hello people, I'm trying to make a iscsi device avaible but I'm getting the following: Stderr: 'iscsiadm: No portal found.\n'. I really need to fix that and I'm going out of options to fix this! [19:13] Lazure: you can now run: sudo apt-get --purge remove `dpkg -l | grep nvidia | grep -v nvidia-common | awk {'print $2'}` [19:14] Lazure: fancy pants me [19:14] Lazure: if you run: dpkg -l | grep nvidia remove all packages you see that are NOT nvidia-common [19:14] could that slow disk access be a bug ActionParsnip ? [19:15] ok it's removing all the nvidia stuff now [19:15] nightfly_, thanks but I have already cloned the given repo but i want to view the repo when i put it to search git hub ... please help me out with this [19:15] ls [19:16] How can I set the desktop background to some solid color, from a script? Some years ago I learned: gconftool-2 --type string --set /desktop/gnome/background/primary_color ${1+"$@"} but that doesn't seem to be correct anymore (it has no effect). [19:16] couldn't you just use an image that's a solid color as a background? [19:16] m3pow: possibly [19:17] Lazure: reboot then reinstall the driver as normal [19:17] yeah, now it won't even get into X. i get the garbled screen and 'failed to idle channel 2' and stuff, i think it's trying to use nouveau again, which my laptop won't support :( [19:17] Lazure: you can even do it in root recovery mode and run: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current === ponbiki is now known as Guest52366 [19:17] Lazure: press CTRL+ALT+F1 and you can log in there, any display can display text [19:18] i got this bug http://kernel.opensuse.org/cgit/kernel/commit/?id=7a46c0780babea7d0b3f277a33ea243be38eb942 [19:18] Lazure: you can even blacklist nouveau and you will get a screen [19:18] nomodeset usually does it [19:18] hi folks, is anyone else having problems with the file choosers on 12.10? I've tested on multiple PCs now, and in several apps, after selecting the path for a file, the app just ignores it and uses the default (typically ~/). Is anyone else seeing this? [19:18] that's how i can boot livecds [19:18] crowdedhouse: then ask in the suse channel. [19:18] this bug is the same on ubuntu [19:18] Lazure: cool, as long as you get a console its fine :) [19:19] ok, i have the crappy version of unity up now. i can get a new driver now. [19:19] i need to compile those ata module by hand [19:19] (i really wish they'd fix video drivers in linux... if i can't even so much as get updates naturally without this happening..) [19:19] Lazure: go moan at nvidia, its their support [19:20] Lazure: my Intel GPU systems have no issues plus I ALWAYS clean install rather than mess with upgrades, so much cleaner and fewer issues [19:20] i didn't do an upgrade. just regular software updates. [19:20] the thing that pops up every time you boot in [19:21] i mean i'm still 12.10 [19:24] i always had issues witz z68 and multi display [19:25] i installed a new video driver,a nd it is doing it again. low res, no unity UI. i guess my laptop can no longer run ubuntu, because the stupid GPU isn't supported properly. :( [19:25] only problems with intel [19:25] Lazure: The question was not how to get solid as opposed to image, but rather how to control the background at all, from a script. [19:25] nvidia 360m apparently is the wrost GPU to have for linux. === Psi-Jack_ is now known as Psi-Jack [19:25] the best gpu for linux is a tseng et 4000 [19:26] i never had this trouble in earlier versions of ubuntu [19:26] why is 12.10 giving me soooooooo many problems with this GPU? [19:27] ever tried tose drm intel kernels? [19:27] Lazure: How did you install "a new driver" exactly - and why? [19:27] crowdedhouse: please stop [19:27] ikonia: stop [19:30] hey folks [19:30] im having trouble making a bootable Usb drive to install windows 7 on a netbook.. [19:30] it seems that ubuntu startup disk creator doesnt do it.. [19:30] any ideas? [19:31] i tryied a couple of ways, including creating one with unetbootin [19:32] ubukou, microsoft provides it's own tool to make a bootable usb device, ask in #windows [19:32] ubukou: this is ubuntu support channel, better to ask in #windows [19:32] OerHeks, any idea if it traces piracy? [19:33] and this conversation is now over ubukou [19:33] ikonia, got it [19:33] thanks [19:34] Can anyone provide a ubuntu netinst iso that launches an openssh server after network config and then waits, by default? Preferably from a corporate site, someone trustworthy? there's a howto at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/NetworkConsole but I'm not comfortable preparing that ISO or USB drive. [19:35] apparnetly i needed to install my kernel headers and linux sources for my nvidia drivers to install correctly. [19:36] root________: if your not comfortable doing this, why don't you just use a normal install [19:36] Hi does anyone know how to enable the backspace to go back on google chrome, ubuntu 12.04? I can't find any information [19:37] Ramtron: what does it do ? [19:37] The backspace does nothing [19:37] but it should go to the previous web page [19:37] Ramtron: it should delete the letter you're infront of [19:37] well yeah if i were typing [19:37] I'm talking about the shortcut that is notable in most browsers, backspace = previous webpage [19:37] ikonia: the system has a damaged video card, and is a laptop. replacing the video card is not an option, I hope to harness the hardware for other purposes [19:38] root________: plug it into a monitor [19:38] Any ideas? [19:38] Ramtron: nope, I don't use it [19:38] ikonia: I've already tried that, extensively. The actual graphics card, including the rasterizer and vga adapter is the part that's damaged. No output is produced on any device. [19:40] Sounds like your only option is to replace it [19:41] he could do what he's trying to do [19:41] Is it just me or is Ophcrack not useful to recover windows 7 passwords... [19:41] but he'll have to make the modifications suggested [19:42] I suppose ubuntu has it set to off on default, there's an extension to enable backspace :D [19:43] ikonia: I'm really hoping someone in an enterprise environment has an iso with exactly these modiciations that they can share a link to, to save me from fumbling around with tthe unfamiliar iso command and attempting to troubleshoot without a known-good iso. [19:44] root________: what are you trying to do? [19:44] i just played with display settings while i had an HDMI connected and i set my laptop display to off.. so now everytime i put in the HDMI the setting takes effect and only resets on restart... how do i get rid of this setting or restore to defaults? [19:44] very doubtful [19:45] Bsims: install ubuntu server on a completely headless system remotely over SSH [19:45] Sounds entirely too complicated [19:45] root________: Ah you will wish to do server install... and most likely will need the bootstrap files for the install on the remote server [19:47] root________: http://serverfault.com/questions/208128/how-to-remotely-install-linux-via-ssh [19:49] Bsims: I already linked to the exact steps that need to be performed in my original question. I just lack the comfort with the tools to be comfortable attempting to follow the guide myself, and to attempt to troubleshoot the system when I don't even know if the ISO is of known good quality [19:49] Ah for that, just do a md5sum on the iso [19:50] Bsims: can you type "/lastlog root________" and read my initial question again please? [19:51] your inital question was after I had joined sorry, you will have to paste it again [19:51] hey kids, how can i turn this command into a /etc/fstab rule? mount -o proto=tcp,port=2049 grinder:/ /mnt/nfs/ [19:52] Sheikhmak: that looks like an NFS mount === carlos is now known as Guest3810 === Guest3810 is now known as Ripper [19:52] just add it like a normal fstab entry host:share and set the file system to nfs [19:52] Bsims: Can anyone provide a ubuntu netinst iso that launches an openssh server after network config and then waits, by default? Preferably from a corporate site, someone trustworthy? there's a howto at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/NetworkConsole but I'm not comfortable preparing that ISO or USB drive. [19:53] ikonia, it is, i've mounted the drive, but I want to make sure, I write it right in fstab [19:53] just treat it like a normal entry file system nfs, and the source device is host:device [19:54] yup that seem to work ikonia [19:56] can I force a reinstall of a metapackage and ALL it's depends? [19:57] DWSR: I've had that question a dozen times. [19:59] if i'm doing an full system rsync backup, should i backup the ~/.cache directory?

Grazie! (per entrare, scrivi « /join #ubuntu-it » senza virgolette) [20:10] I will like to know, how do I make sure a host and guest vm have different ip addresses and are accessible from any external host, just like a physical box? [20:11] So far, I've done bridged networking but when I try to ssh from the host to the bridged interface ip address, I land on the host machine but not the guest vm [20:11] since i'm doing bridged networking, what IP address is the guest meant to have so it can be accessible just like a physical host [20:12] umm i was running an uodate from 12.04 to 12.10 and its been running for more than an hour now [20:12] how much longer will it take ? [20:13] everytime I ssh to the bridged interface ip, I land on the host [20:13] drecute: okay, so you assign an IP address to the bridge device br0 for your local host, then the guest should have an IP address in the same subnet that's not used by another host. Say you're using the 192.168.100.xx addresses, and your router is .1, your host is .2, and your desktops are above .100. You might pick .3 for your VM, or anything else that's unused. [20:13] anyone else updated ... can someone some time estimates ? [20:13] s/some/give [20:14] root________: you mean i can go ahead and assign a static ip to the guest vm? [20:14] I try to edit my rc.local, do I need some specifiq syntax ? Or I just copy/paste my command ? (like => mount /this/here /to/this/here) [20:15] i cant replicate it :( [20:15] drecute: if you would like to, yes. Assign it to the eth0 device inside the VM though, not the vmnet0 device that is visible from the host. You can also use DHCP to auto configure the guest if you prefer. [20:15] drecute: do you have a DHCP sevrer in your network? Then let it assign an IP address to the guest [20:17] root________: thank you. It worked [20:19] Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out how to gain access to super user.

[20:21] guntbert: I mean just some random port number I want to open up [20:21] fugitivecoast: try using sudo -i [20:21] drecute: you can "open" it in iptables, but with nothing listening there, it doesn't have any effect. [20:21] drecute: a port is only regarded as "open" if some server is listening there [20:21] http://www.ustream.tv/channel/live-dnb-j-anderson [20:22] memomemo, add it to gnome-session-properties [20:22] Cheesecakes: thank you I will give this a try [20:22] i can make a service listen there right? [20:22] like ssh ? [20:23] escott: oh, ok, and the command is just "gedit /file/path/momo.txt ? [20:23] memomemo, sure [20:24] drecute: please start by telling us your goal [20:24] memomemo, there are also various yellow stick pad type applications [20:24] drecute: sure. You can pretty much make any service listen anywhere you want. [20:24] guntbert: sorry.

[20:48] k1l: nope they shut down [20:48] fugitivecoast, sudo service lightdm stop [20:48] fugitivecoast, sudo service lightdm stop [20:48] Thank you [20:48] vite: di use start them in "screen" ? screen is a program [20:48] My machine keeps telling me I ned to execute `do-release-upgrade` when I login; however when I run that it shows there are no updates available. [20:48] escott: I'm going to lunch now, but I'll bbl. PM me if you have any ideas. [20:48] Thanks! [20:48] !ask [20:48] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [20:48] What keeps updating motd with that nonsense? [20:49] !ask my webcam does not work, it shows a black screen in cheese and skype. help? [20:49] jackarg: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [20:49] !netsplit [20:49] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit [20:49] jackarg, just ask your question, and provide details, and then have patience. [20:49] k1l: hmm dunno heh [20:49] edoceo_: do a "lsb_release -sc" in terminal please [20:50] vite: so i think you didnt start them with screen. so its no surprise that they closed [20:50] precise [20:50] !screen | vite [20:50] vite: screen is a window manager for terminal sessions, also useful over SSH. The 'byobu' package provides very useful additional utilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Screen [20:50] So, precise is the newest one right? [20:50] TheLordOfTime: yeah sorry it was a timing problem the browser bugged. didn't mean to post it twice [20:52] edoceo_: no, its quantal = 12.10 is the newest === hhu is now known as wouitmil [20:52] edoceo_, 12.10 (Quantal) is the latest release, but the latest LTS is 12.04. [20:52] edoceo_: if you dont want to upgrade make your release-prompt to LTS [20:52] jackarg: [20:52] depending on what you're looking ;) [20:52] Hi every body ! [20:52] looking for * [20:52] quantal! Ok, rhm,,, so `do-release-upgrade` is confused then, not pam_motd... [20:53] soulz: yes? [20:53] edoceo_: on server you probably only want LTS releases [20:53] i think i screwed up my installation. my date/time in the upper right has disappeared.. what are the packages i need to install to get it back? [20:53] `do-release-upgrade -c` doesn't even show 12.10; [20:54] edoceo_: can you put a "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" into a pastebin? [20:54] apt-get update has nothing do do, I've done that only a few minutes ago [20:55] dist-upgrade only show: linux-image-3.2.0-34-generic [20:56] If I do `do-release-upgrade -d` then it allow 12.10; [20:57] no [20:57] -d = development [20:57] 12.10 is not development [20:58] ikonia: please read from the start of the conversation [20:58] do-release-upgrade is not working propery [20:58] edoceo_: that doesn't change what I just said [20:58] guys, on a LiveCD, trying to resize an Ubuntu partition so that WIndows 7 can be installed afterwards. The problem is that gparted offers no option to unmount or resize the partition. [20:59] Anyone can help on this one? [20:59] cardpuncher: right click the drive on the desktop and click unmount [20:59] cardpuncher: (or do it in nautilus) [20:59] ikonia: well, motd says I need to upgrade, and `do-release-upgrade` says I'm on the latest version. I'm on Precice and Quantal is the latest [20:59] the option is grayed out apparently, the question is from bangarang [20:59] One of those two things is not working properly [20:59] edoceo_: what is your release-prompt? [21:00] ikonia: only the unallocated is able to do parttition [21:00] http://i.imgur.com/XjmZ3.png [21:00] are you sure you set it to upgrade to non-lts ? [21:00] New release '12.10' available. \n Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it. [21:01] edoceo_: and is this a server? or a pc? if a server: are that hoster-specific sources or theoriginal ubuntu. etc. etc.etc. [21:01] bangarang: you're trying to restart a 1mb partition, there is no space [21:01] do-release-upgrade: No new release found [21:01] edoceo_: please show me the output of "uname -a" [21:01] orignal ubuntu [21:01] how can i check [21:01] not sure [21:01] if you refuse to give information im not motivated to help you. :/ [21:01] bangarang: i'm telling you [21:01] uname: Linux calf 3.6.5-x86_64-linode28 #1 SMP Sun Nov 4 12:40:43 EST 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [21:02] edoceo_: you can keep saying that over and over it won't change anything [21:02] edoceo_: ahhh linode [21:02] vps [21:02] !info linux-image [21:02] linux-image (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image.. In component main, is optional. Version 3.5.0.14.14 (quantal), package size 1 kB, installed size 31 kB [21:02] look at that kernel [21:02] it's later than the original ubuntu 12.10 version [21:02] edoceo_: oa, its a vps. so talk to your hoster for that problem [21:02] that's not an ubuntu install [21:02] How do I disable the Noveau graphics driver? [21:03] that's some bastardised thing [21:03] So, even pulling apt-sources direct from Ubuntu don't do it? [21:03] edoceo_: no [21:03] edoceo_: it's a vps, [21:03] dang [21:03] ikonia: the option is gray on the 450gb disk [21:04] the option in the gry is 1.2MB as it says [21:04] bangarang: you have an lvm physical volume assigned that is 465GB [21:04] (the brown thing) [21:04] lvm++ [21:04] that PV is inside an extended partition (the light blue thing) [21:04] so what do I need to do? change to what [21:05] bangarang: what do you want to change ? [21:05] So, perhaps I file bug with Linode that their mods make some inconsistencies show up up between motd & d-r-u [21:05] no [21:05] anything that allows me to make a new partition... [21:06] it's a bastardised version [21:06] bangarang: you need to remove the PV then create partition out of that [21:06] bangarang: do you have any logical volumes assigned to that PV [21:06] bastards! [21:06] thanks! [21:06] edoceo_: no need for that [21:07] edoceo_: a vps install is no real install. the guest (your vserver) shares alot with the host. so they have special installations. talk to you hoster for that [21:08] Hmm, in my shop my Gentoo bare metal running Ubuntu under KVM seems to be not so bastardized [21:08] ikonia: how do I remove the PV? and PV means... [21:08] I suppose, we build differently than Linode [21:08] edoceo_: why would it be bastardised....unless you've done it [21:08] edoceo_: what ? [21:09] edoceo_: you've just a default install, linode use a custom distribution, why are you comparing the two things [21:09] Cause I'm as dumb as you think I am; thanks for making me feel welcome [21:10] hello? ikonia [21:10] bangarang: yes ? [21:10] bangarang: you cannto remove a PV- its the base of LVM - and be patient please [21:10] *cannot [21:11] guntbert: you can, as long as there's nothing on it [21:12] qubit: correct :-) but I doubt that this is the case here [21:12] so.. how do I make a partition out of this? [21:12] http://i.imgur.com/44Rqd.png [21:13] bangarang: you need to remove the PV [21:13] im not ubuntu pro lol [21:13] bangarang: and then make a partition out of the free space as I said earlier [21:13] bangarang: "click the brown thing, click remove" [21:13] fellow helpers are saying its not possible to remove it.. and how do I do that? [21:14] bangarang: probably because you have logical volumes in i [21:14] in it [21:14] what u said didnt work lol [21:14] bangarang: I did not follow, please liste to ikonia [21:15] why is that funny ? [21:15] right click on the brown icon wont display the delete bottom [21:15] yes you said that a minute ago [21:16] I told you why [21:16] coz os lvm? [21:16] of* [21:16] bangarang: because you probably have a logical volume assigned [21:16] bangarang: are you currently running from a livecd ? [21:16] yea... [21:17] what if i change it to prep [21:17] instead of lvm [21:17] bangarang: ok, so open a terminal and type "sudo pvdisplay" (I doubt this will give you any info) [21:17] bangarang: change it to "prep" ? [21:17] what ???

[21:21] what are the implications? i just want to create a NFST [21:21] NFTS partition [21:21] cant run compiz... help [21:21] Does anyone happen to know a tool that downloads subtitles for TV series and merges them with the file, all automatically? [21:21] bangarang: the implications are any data on that partition/volumes under it will go [21:22] damn... [21:22] any1? [21:23] so there is no can Do.. ikonia [21:23] bangarang: I've just told you the options [21:25] hola, soy nuevo. tengo dos preguntas, supongo que las podre hacer aquí... es posible hacer un acceso directo a una aplicacion que corre bajo wine, para que nada mas darle click se abra con wine y todo eso?

[21:54] Frogzilla: I don't know how to monitor it, but I do know that you'll only ever be able to tell how much data is going through that tunnel, not what the data is. [21:54] Ogredude: So I won't be able to see what people are doing? How do I know if people are using the VPN to do illegal things? [21:55] Frogzilla: you can't. [21:55] a VPN tunnel is encrypted, unless you've got a supercomputer handy to do your decryption, there is no man-in-the-middle attack on a VPN [21:55] Ogredude: So somebody could download 1 terabyte of pirated things, and I would have no idea? Ever? [21:56] Ogredude: I host the VPN so even from server-side I can't see? [21:56] Frogzilla: you'd know they transferred a terrabyte of stuff, but you'd never be able to tell *what* stuff [21:56] the whole point of VPN is that it's a virtual *private* network [21:56] Frogzilla: yes, if you are the vpn endpoint, you can see what comes out of the vpn [21:56] qubit: Any idea how? [21:57] Frogzilla: depends how you want to monitor, you can use something like `ntop` to get general info, or tcpdump to see data [21:57] hello [21:58] qubit: More like something to notice how much data is flowing, and if I see a huge spike, like a 4 gig file downloaded, I'd like to see where the data was transfered from, e.g. piratebay or isohunt [21:58] good old man-at-the-endpoint attack, eh?
