| DJMonty | I have a quick question about reinstalling an os | 00:09 |
| Lubuntufan | SolarisBoy, nefarious? | 00:10 |
| DJMonty | I plan to format the hard drive of this pc, as the previous owners left a load of programs on it. They didn't have the os disks, and I don't have a usb stick or disk to put ubuntu on | 00:10 |
| DJMonty | However, I do have the sticker on the side of the tower with the product key on it | 00:10 |
| NoorideeNAE | ubuntu ubiquity : WARNING:root:cant add xul-ext-ubufox (E:unable to correct problems you have help broken packages.) ... how can i fix it? | 00:10 |
| DJMonty | Can I reinstall the os using just the product key? | 00:10 |
| Guest84742 | MERRY CHRISTMAS! | 00:10 |
| bekks | DJMonty: How is that related to Ubuntu? And without an installation medium (OEM in your case) you cannot reinstall it. | 00:11 |
| DJMonty | Bekks: I planned to put ubuntu on afterwards, and I had a few followup questions | 00:11 |

| nurupo | is there any backup software on ubuntu 11.04 live cd? | 00:14 |
| nurupo | i tried to backup using dd, but realized it backups the unused space too. | 00:14 |
| nurupo | now i'm pipelining dd with gzip as some people suggested on some forums (googled), hope that will help. | 00:14 |
| nurupo | i'm not very sure if that will really help, since the empty space may contain some hard to compress garbage instead of, say, zeros. so, i'm curious if there is some other tool on the live cd to backup a hard drive more efficiently. | 00:14 |
| FloodBot1 | nurupo: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:14 |
| SolarisBoy | sorry my mommy called me Lubuntufan =) | 00:14 |
| jiwan | hey i can't use irssi why? | 00:14 |
| Lubuntufan | it's ok :) | 00:15 |
| Lubuntufan | the only weird thing I've done with my setup is installed a testing kernel | 00:15 |
| Lubuntufan | don't know if that has anything to do with it | 00:16 |
| SolarisBoy | Lubuntufan: no i dont think it's nefarious neccesarily - maybe just a bad permission on a file elevating to sudo should allow you to print apparmor_status fine - if not i would *aassume* a file permission was off somewhere - assuming you dont have a bunch of custom stuff in there you can try to apt-get install --reinstall it and see if that fixes it | 00:16 |
| monkeyjuice | jiwan: what do you mean you cant use it | 00:16 |
| Guest84742 | MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL! | 00:16 |
| SolarisBoy | Lubuntufan: dought it - testing kernel shouldn't affect those userland apps directly like that | 00:16 |
| SolarisBoy | Lubuntufan: what version of ubuntu do you run? | 00:17 |
| Lubuntufan | lubuntu 12.10 | 00:17 |
| SolarisBoy | ok | 00:17 |
| jiwan | i mean for irc, i was trying to use irssi client but, it showing problem that 'could not resolve host name' | 00:17 |
| SolarisBoy | jiwan: at what point do you get that error? | 00:18 |
| jiwan | when i lunch irssi and try to connect with server | 00:19 |
| SolarisBoy | Lubuntufan: can you post to pastebin a recreation of the error (type command and reproduce error), and the ls -ltRh /etc/apparmor* and ls -ltrhd /etc/apparmor* ? | 00:20 |
| SolarisBoy | jiwan: it can't resolve a servername in your .irssi/config file then | 00:20 |
| Lubuntufan | SolarisBoy, thanks for the help... I am working on that. I might need instructions for that but I'll be back in here in a min :) | 00:21 |
| SolarisBoy | ok | 00:21 |
| jiwan | so what should i have to do | 00:21 |
| jiwan | for hat | 00:21 |
| jiwan | srry | 00:21 |
| jiwan | that | 00:21 |
| FloodBot1 | jiwan: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:21 |
| SolarisBoy | jiwan: locate the incorrect name and investigate | 00:21 |
| jiwan | i have tried so many but, i got tired | 00:22 |
| SolarisBoy | jiwan: its simple - you can open a terminal use ping,dig etc to test a name - and you can also check online to see if your server entry is accurate or maybe if something on their side is changed and your config must be updated - but you need to investigate | 00:23 |
| jiwan | ok thank you i will try it | 00:24 |
| SolarisBoy | ok | 00:24 |
| jiwan | listen, is it possible to add the friend over here for the futur | 00:24 |
| SolarisBoy | not that i know of | 00:25 |
| SolarisBoy | may be some scripts that does something similar but not sure | 00:25 |
| Lubuntufan | SolarisBoy, what do I do with ls -ltRh /etc/apparmor* and ls -ltrhd /etc/apparmor*? Are those commands? | 00:28 |

| tentaclemoose | they look so nice, but i'm torn between going with a scumbag like dell/hp just for the customer support an evil empire is capable of providing | 01:15 |
| sp00ky | tentaclemoose, I've had this laptop since this summer and the only issue I've had was about 2 weeks after I received it the fan started clicking. they sent me a replacement which too about 2 weeks to arrive and I sent the defective fan back. | 01:16 |

| WeThePeople | to install them | 01:45 |
| ElectricPrism | WeThePeople: It depends, usually the archive will have a layout that overlays / | 01:46 |
| marenostrum | ElectricPrism, Why do you insist on rolling release? Ubuntu LTSs (long time support) have good support life. 12.04 was a LTS, for example. | 01:47 |

| Lubuntufan | I think so. I'm trying to run a program as a different user so I doesn't have access to MY files | 01:58 |
| Guest94121 | lobhater: to see if the usb will saw and then use the mount command | 01:59 |
| marenostrum | WeThePeople, Put it in an empty dir and extract it there. The dir isn't important. İnstallation will make the necessary packages to go where they belong. After install you may delete the extracted files. So it doesn't matter. | 01:59 |

| === rafael is now known as Guest38330 | ||
| lvleph | You can mount wherever you like lobhater | 02:00 |
| lvleph | but if you make it in /media it will show up on the desktop | 02:00 |
| lvleph | as long as you have that enabled | 02:00 |
| lobhater | awesome, thanks. ill try it out and I am sure will be back shortly | 02:00 |
| lobhater | well what if i want to create the dir on my desktop of my local machine and have it mount the usb drive via ssh on my server? | 02:01 |
| lvleph | So the usb is on the server? | 02:02 |
| lobhater | lvleph: well than media would be perfect, except for it being on another machine | 02:02 |
| lvleph | and you want it mounted by a client? | 02:02 |
| lobhater | lvleph: correct | 02:02 |
| lvleph | ok | 02:02 |

| torgeorg | Hi. I have installed radeon drivers, but now I want to go back to the stock drivers. I have uninstalled the radeon drivers in the packagemanager, but still they are activated. | 02:05 |
| lvleph | lol | 02:05 |
| tonsofpcs | so I have a nVidia graphics card with HDMI out. When I boot with no HDMI display 'attached' to the HDMI out, the HDMI out goes dead... I use a HT receiver so there's only a display attached when I'm actively using it and Iw ant to reboot when I'm not actively using it... I've done this now and I have no display. Is there a trick to making an nVidia card detect the HDMI out? | 02:05 |
| torgeorg | How can I go back? | 02:05 |
| lobhater | i have zero (0) windows machines | 02:06 |
| lvleph | lobhater you will use smbfs | 02:06 |
| lvleph | and mount that way | 02:06 |
| lobhater | ok ill read and be back, thanks! | 02:06 |
| milamber | lobhater: samba can be used for windows or linux. it is the easiest way to share the way you want | 02:06 |
| torgeorg | aptitude search show the radeon driver as: p xserver-xorg-video-radeon | 02:07 |
| torgeorg | should not the vesa driver be loaded then? | 02:07 |
| lobhater | another question, why does it list the file system type of my usb drive as HPFS/NTFS/exFAT? | 02:09 |

| tonsofpcs | ah, service lightdm restart | 02:18 |
| JAIME | i have had banshee working before but now it doesnt want to play! | 02:19 |
| marenostrum | lcabreza1, What happens when you quir Firefox altogether? In fact its not Firefox its those nasty scripts of sites. I advice to use NoScript and let them in a controlled manner. | 02:20 |
| marenostrum | lcabreza1, quir= quit, for sure | 02:20 |
| Guest94121 | Thanks | 02:20 |
| mechanism | hello, just installed ubuntu on mackbook pro 15" mid 2012 and seems like theres none any video drivers available in additional drivers section. how can I install drivers? tried to install some via synaptic but no luck | 02:20 |
| lcabreza1 | marenostrum: i'll try the no script. I just quit firefox and it went a bit faster but still a little slow not the same as the 10.10 or fedora 6. | 02:21 |
| marenostrum | lcabreza1, I don't realize such performance issues on 12.04 but I'm not sure. Good luck. | 02:23 |
| === _Santa|Claus-_ is now known as _JKL1234-_ | ||
| lcabreza1 | marenostrum:i want it to be just very basic interface, not so 3D graphic. if only i can turn the interface into a default red hat 9 or fedora 6, those were the days when everything was fine to me ...it could be the latest kernel ..im not sure either.. | 02:25 |
| marenostrum | lcabreza1, I like basic interface and perforamnce as well. Some problem -if to call problem- with Ubuntu is more related with some services (such as some automatic update check things and so on) than interface. There may be performance decreases when they start. Again, good luck! | 02:28 |
| elkingrey | I've been trying to access my sister's machine remotely but have had no luck. She's using ubuntu and I'm using Fedora. She's got all the boxes checked(she texted me a picutre to make sure) but I still cannot connect. On my end, I specify VNC, put in the IP address(without specifying port, nor do I use host ssh as a tunnel) and hit connect. Then nothing happens on either end. Eventually I get an error sign. On her end I | 02:29 |
| elkingrey | walked her through connecting to her router, we set up remote access and enabled UPnP as well. Anybody have any ideas what we could be missing? | 02:29 |
| marenostrum | lcabreza1, You can check the CPU and RAM consumption of the programs via top command from terminal. (Quit with q) | 02:30 |
| Guest94121 | elkingrey: do you understand public and private IPs. are you in the same network with her? | 02:32 |
| lcabreza1 | marenostrum: Thanks : 9.6%sys 18.7%us | 02:33 |
| marenostrum | lcabreza1, By the way, for those nasty resource consuming scrits of some sites: I found almost no difference between cpu consumption of Firefox and Chromium. So I don't blame Firefox. | 02:33 |
| elkingrey | Guest94121: No, she is at a different IP | 02:34 |
| gotoguy | elkingrey, I think vnc uses port: 5300, you have to open that one up. | 02:34 |
| elkingrey | gotoguy: I have to open 5300 on her end? | 02:34 |
| gotoguy | yes, | 02:35 |
| elkingrey | how? | 02:35 |
| torgeorg | Hey. I have been trying for a while now to get the system to use vesa driver, but it keeps loading the radeon driver which makes the system unstable. | 02:35 |
| gotoguy | hang on, Im double checking the port number. | 02:35 |
| Guest94121 | elkingrey: to connect to have machine her ip should be public ip or you can use teamviewer | 02:35 |
| codrus | I messed up my MBR and get a grup rescue prompt at boot now. When I do: set root=(hd0,msdos6) [return] set prefix=(hd0,msdos6)/boot/grub [return] insmod normal [return] <-- it says at this step 'unknown filesystem'. Is it because it is the wrong (hd0,msdosX)? | 02:36 |
| gotoguy | nah, you can connect direct., Guest | 02:36 |
| torgeorg | http://pastebin.com/4QypQ6mP | 02:36 |
| lcabreza1 | marenostrum:i just read some reviews about firefox that uses a lot of RAM, i was suspecting that .. | 02:36 |
| codrus | *grub | 02:36 |
| torgeorg | the xorg.conf | 02:36 |
| KurtKraut | After I changed my /etc/resolv.conf manually once. the NetworkManager never writes in this file the DNS servers gathered from DHCP, making me manually adjust the resolv.conf whenever I change network. How can I fix it? | 02:36 |
| marenostrum | lcabreza1, Is virtual machine up? | 02:36 |
| marenostrum | lcabreza1, Maybe but you say its not so good after you quit Firefox. | 02:37 |
| elkingrey | gotoguy: When I get things working, shouldn't it be under her user? I mean, she'll see what I'm doing, so it shoudl be her user | 02:38 |
| lcabreza1 | marenostrum: yes thats right ..virtual machine is up (but its only uses 1GB RAM) and only running one application on it | 02:39 |
| gotoguy | elkingrey, Yeah Make sure the firewall is open on ports: 5900 and (5901 for virtual). | 02:39 |
| torgeorg | I don't understand why it loads the radeon driver when I have Driver "vesa" under Section "Device" | 02:39 |
| elkingrey | I asked her to go to her firewall settings, and when she goes to dash-home, and searches firewall, nothing shows up. What gives? | 02:40 |
| gotoguy | elkingrey, does she have a router? | 02:40 |
| marenostrum | lcabreza1, In my experience Web site script issues (I'm calling so rather than Firefox issues) makes Firefox to consume a lot portion of CPU. I didn't realize a RAM issue. Problem is more related with CPU in my cases. And you know, our RAMs, 4 GB is not too much under todays conditions. But for me, 4 GB is OK. More than OK. | 02:40 |
| elkingrey | Yes | 02:40 |
| Guest94121 | elkingrey: if that didn't work try teamviewer.. | 02:40 |
| gotoguy | elkingrey, You have to open those ports on the router AND the firewall if she's running one. | 02:41 |
| gotoguy | I do this all the time without any other services, but some time it takes a little tweaking. | 02:41 |
| elkingrey | she's not running a firewall on her machine, but she may be on her router | 02:41 |
| gotoguy | the router is probably running NAT, and you have to open those ports for VNC. | 02:42 |
| gotoguy | else you have to port forward using ssh, but still you would need port 22 open for ssh. | 02:43 |

| codrus | I was going to order a ubuntu livecd to use to fix my boot partition. I have x64 version installed and they only seem to sell x32 disks of ubuntu. Will that still work for me? | 02:44 |
| gotoguy | usually 192.168.1.1 in her browser, will get the router. | 02:45 |
| Guest94121 | elkingrey: thats a private IP it will not work. | 02:45 |
| gotoguy | Guest94121, I hate third parties, they can back door you, some charge $. | 02:46 |
| leafwiz | Hi, I'm trying to go back from the radeon driver I tried , since it makes my system unstable. But I then don't understand why X11 still loads the radeon driver even if I have vesa as the driver in xorg.conf ? http://pastebin.com/4QypQ6mP | 02:46 |
| leafwiz | I have tried aptitude remove xserver-xorg-video-radeon | 02:47 |
| Guest94121 | gotoguy: is the same as VNC, this tool i use for long team for personal use is free.. is a great tool. | 02:47 |
| marenostrum | codrus, Isn't it a possibility to download the ISO and write your own CD? (I don't know if 32 CD works for your situation or not.) | 02:48 |
| elkingrey | Okay, so we disabled the SPI firewall on her router and still nothing. WHen I hit connect on my end it's just a black screen, and then it eventually says the ip is closed. Nothing ever pops up on her screen to notify her that I am trying to connect | 02:48 |
| gotoguy | elkingrey, just make sure the router is open on ports: 5900 and (5901 for virtual desktop). | 02:48 |
| Guest94121 | elkingrey: it will not work is a private ip you using. | 02:48 |
| gotoguy | can you ping her IP and are you sure it's the correct one. | 02:49 |
| elkingrey | I don't know how to open up those ports, why would I have to if firewall is disabled. Also, why would it not work for a private IP? That doesn't make any sense/. I've had people connect to my ip before | 02:49 |
| Guest94121 | elkingrey: trust me am an expert in this area.. | 02:50 |
| elkingrey | how do I ping her ip | 02:50 |
| gotoguy | elkingrey, private ip don't mean crap. But you could check if its the router for sure by bypassing it. but she would need to restart the network service or reboot. | 02:51 |
| Guest94121 | elkingrey: public ips can be seen on the internet but private ips can not be. so what you are trying to do is connect via the internet.. you need a server to create this tunel for you.. | 02:52 |
| lcabreza1 | marenostrum: i'll try to do some tweaking and probably disable some services not needed .. | 02:52 |
| gotoguy | elkingrey, then she would be open to the internet but atleast you could check it that way. | 02:52 |
| Guest94121 | elkingrey: trust me just you teamviewer and tell her also to download teamviewer then you don't have to disable your firewall which is not safe.. | 02:53 |
| gotoguy | private IP means behind a router using NAT. | 02:53 |
| marenostrum | lcabreza1, That's the best. In fact I have to do the same. I just didn't want to deal with it but I'll do. | 02:53 |
| gotoguy | That's all, and if you open the router right, it will work. | 02:54 |
| elkingrey | gotoguy I don't know what else to do with the router. I've disabled the firewall and enabled UPnP and remote access. What else? | 02:55 |
| Guest94121 | gotoguy: yes using nat or pat. so you cannot connect to them. | 02:55 |
| codrus | marenostrum: the computer I messed up is the only one I have access to that has a cd/dvd drive | 02:56 |
| gotoguy | elkingrey, you have to find the port forward section in it, or some have a feature called DMZ. | 02:56 |
| scripthigh||ght | hey bitches | 02:56 |
| codrus | marenostrum: so can't burn my own | 02:56 |
| scripthigh||ght | is there an iso for older machines for the newest version what do they call it alternate or something? | 02:57 |
| elkingrey | looking into that now. | 02:57 |
| gotoguy | elkingrey, DMZ = demilterized zone , but it's for gaming and it opens all ports to one machine. | 02:57 |
| somsip | scripthigh||ght: no alternate any more. You could try minimal and then add what you want on top of that if you want to avoid the standard desktop | 02:58 |
| marenostrum | codrus, I see. Maybe a neighbour or internet cafe may help... Anyway. I don't know if 32 bit works for you or not. Good luck. | 02:58 |

| daftykins | gotoguy: there is no situation when you'd ever put a PC in a DMZ just for gaming ¬_¬ | 03:00 |

| scripthigh||ght | percise and q somsip | 03:01 |
| gotoguy | daftykin, know one knows what port a game server might use, so some prefer to open all to only one machine. | 03:01 |
| codrus | marenostrum: california | 03:02 |
| somsip | scripthigh||ght: what is the cpu hog. What exactly is consuming resources? | 03:02 |
| scripthigh||ght | somsip, after I install, it never loads the desktop just the wallpaper. slower and slower until it won't load. | 03:02 |
| somsip | scripthigh||ght: what desktop? Unity? | 03:03 |
| gotoguy | daftykin, also some servers switch ports or have a range of ports , hence thats what DMZ is for. | 03:03 |

| marenostrum | codrus, It will be very weird to send CD from Turkey to USA but if you like and if you can wait for the post to come, I'll send. (But there should be some local solutions there.) Anyway, if you like, I'll post it tomorrow. | 03:04 |

| Guest94121 | hello | 03:18 |
| KI4RO | What's the best package (least hassle) to transfer my CDs to my MP3 player? | 03:22 |
| blnk | bosco, I'm a bit of a noob myself, but I needed to format with some linux file systems for it to dual boot. I had given 100gb to an NTFS for windows, 100gb to ext3 for ubuntum then it also required a linux-swap file system. All that was an option to me when I was installing | 03:22 |
| jenia | hello everyone | 03:24 |
| blnk | Kl4RO what MP3 player are you using? if you are using an iPod, it will be a bit difficult | 03:24 |
| {bosco} | c_smith, 12.10 x64 | 03:25 |
| kvothetech | you can use ipods in linux they suck but you can use them | 03:25 |
| {bosco} | c_smith, installed from a usb since i have no cdrom drive | 03:25 |
| blnk | kvothetech, I agree with that statement, I used an ipod touch with ubuntu for a while. But music would frequently stop transfering and it was a hug hastle | 03:26 |
| KI4RO | blnk, Its called Eclipse...wife got it for me for Christmas | 03:26 |
| {bosco} | lol | 03:26 |
| c_smith | {bosco}, alright, | 03:27 |
| {bosco} | so? lol | 03:27 |
| alan__ | Hello all & Merry Christmas! | 03:27 |
| blnk | KI4RO, have you plugged it into a USB port yet? if so, does it show up as a storage device? | 03:27 |
| c_smith | now, your current partition setup doesn't make clear which partition is the UEFI Partition (yes, UEFI needs it's own partition) | 03:27 |
| KI4RO | blnk, Yes | 03:27 |
| Ghostdog | Hey all, what would be the best place to get 12.04 networking support? | 03:28 |
| alan__ | Can I ask... with the recent release of Enlightenment e17, is there any increase in questions concerning it? | 03:29 |
| KurtKraut | After I changed my /etc/resolv.conf manually once. the NetworkManager never writes in this file the DNS servers gathered from DHCP, making me manually adjust the resolv.conf whenever I change network. How can I fix it? | 03:29 |
| c_smith | {bosco}, usually /dev/sda1 would be a UEFI partition. | 03:29 |
| {bosco} | c_smith, i get that but when i do it doesnt boot at all for some reason so i want this to work without having to reinstall windows? | 03:29 |
| blnk | KI4RO, are you able to play music CDs from your computer? | 03:29 |
| KI4RO | blnk, Yes | 03:29 |
| bazhang | alan__, it's only been a couple of days, so no | 03:29 |
| {bosco} | c_smith, so can you walk me through this just for a sec | 03:29 |
| c_smith | {bosco}, okay, gimme a second to refer to the pic you provided. | 03:29 |
| {bosco} | c_smith, thanks | 03:30 |
| alan__ | bazhang - thanks | 03:30 |
| blnk | KI4RO and mp3 files as well? | 03:30 |
| c_smith | {bosco}, it looks like Windows isn't using the UEFI Capability, just so you know. | 03:30 |
| {bosco} | c_smith, deleting the recovery partition is ok 2 i dont need that | 03:30 |
| KI4RO | blnk, Yes | 03:30 |
| {bosco} | c_smith, why not it is a factory installed version of windows 8 | 03:30 |
| c_smith | {bosco}, that frees up a lot of spce. | 03:30 |
| c_smith | {bosco}, that brings a whole host of other problems, I'm gonna ask you to check for Secure Boot being enabled. | 03:31 |
| c_smith | if it is, it's the reason Linux isn't booting. | 03:31 |
| blnk | KI4RO, what program are you using for audio playback? | 03:32 |
| {bosco} | c_smith, in the bios secure boot is not enabled but legacy support is not enabled | 03:32 |
| KI4RO | blnk, Rythmbox | 03:32 |
| c_smith | {bosco}, okay, Legacy won't be needed. | 03:32 |
| {bosco} | c_smith, right i know that so where to begin to install ubuntu to get this to work | 03:32 |
| {bosco} | with a storage drive | 03:33 |
| {bosco} | with the extra | 03:33 |
| c_smith | {bosco}, but I'm afraid I'm not gonna be much help on Windows 8, latest Windows version I know anything about is 7 | 03:33 |
| blnk | KI4RO, on the right hand side, you should see your CD listed under "devices". have you tried right clicking on the disk and selecting "extract to library"? | 03:33 |
| blnk | KI4RO, woops, I meant left hand side | 03:33 |
| c_smith | and 8 is too different than 7 to have anything I know about 7 to apply. | 03:33 |
| {bosco} | c_smith, that is ok i will be able to work around that i just cant seem to get the partions to boot right with | 03:33 |
| KI4RO | blnk, They appear to be WAV files on the CD and, of course, are huge. I was hoping to find a simple easy to use program that would convert them to MP3 "automatically" | 03:33 |
| {bosco} | uefi | 03:34 |
| {bosco} | so any help? c_smith is better than none | 03:34 |
| KI4RO | blnk, Have not extracted to library | 03:34 |
| c_smith | {bosco}, all I can suggest safely is not really the most efficient, but that would be buying a Windows 8 disc, doing a clean install of that, then try and install Ubuntu. | 03:34 |
| blnk | KI4RO, in rhythmbox, go to the edit menu, then go to preferences | 03:35 |
| KI4RO | blnk, Okay | 03:35 |
| c_smith | other than that, I don't know enough to suggest anything without a high risk of leading you wrong. | 03:36 |
| blnk | KI4RO under music tab, at the bottom, is the prefered format "MPEG Layer 3"? | 03:36 |
| {bosco} | c_smith, i just did a clean install of windows 8 that is how it looks after install c_smith i dont care if it leads me wrong i can fix it if it does dont worry at this point i am willing to try anything? | 03:37 |
| KI4RO | blnk ogg vorbis? | 03:38 |
| c_smith | {bosco}, ah, I have no other suggestions, sadly. | 03:38 |
| blnk | change it to "MPEG Layer 3 Audio" from the drop box | 03:38 |
| c_smith | like I said, I know nothing about Windows 8 | 03:38 |
| OerHeks | {bosco}, maybe this page is any help >> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 03:38 |
| dimas_ | blank screen | 03:38 |
| KI4RO | blnk, It is set to MPEG Layer 3 now | 03:38 |
| vjacob | hiya. how does one know which vnc client to choose? e.g. ultra, tight, real, etc. etc. | 03:39 |
| {bosco} | c_smith, i know you dont what would you do to install linux at this point just by default | 03:39 |
| blnk | KI4RO now take not where your library location is. and if you extract your CD to your library, I think it should extract the tracks into MP3 format into your library | 03:39 |
| blnk | KI4RO from there, you should be able to drag and drop them into your MP3 player | 03:40 |
| KI4RO | blnk, Will they just transfer to the MP3 player? | 03:40 |
| blnk | KI4RO actually, your mp3 player might even show up on Rhythmbox and you can right click on it and "sync to library" i think | 03:41 |
| c_smith | {bosco}, because I have no use for windows myself, I'd simply hose out windows (get rid of it) and install Ubuntu as the only OS. | 03:41 |
| c_smith | {bosco}, but I take it you need windows. | 03:41 |
| Uzi | I'm having issues connecting to a remote printer. The way ubuntu machine is setup: I have a cat5 cable running into my other pc which is wirelessly connected to my router. The printer is routed to that pc. This linux pc doesn't have a wifi card nor do I have the funds right now to get one. On the windows machine I set LPR on and have been trying to install the driver for my printer which is a "Brother MFC-J815W" | 03:41 |
| {bosco} | c_smith well i dont need windows i just like to kinda keep up on just for the fun of it i dont need it at all really | 03:41 |
| c_smith | {bosco}, if you don't need it, it may end up being easier to just set up Ubuntu to be the only thing. | 03:42 |
| blnk | KI4RO, I think it should work. most mp3 players(excluding ipods) just need the mp3 files dropped into their storage | 03:44 |

| klloveall | Good evening (or morning or afternoon or whatever it is, wherever you are)! I'm having a weird issue with my SSH. I'm trying to connect to a server on my local network and it connects, asks for my username/password, logs me in, but then the prompt it shows is "@THOR" (my local computer name) as opposed to "@mcserver" like it should be. This same thing happens no matter what other computer I try to connect to this parti | 03:48 |
| klloveall | cular server through, so I know it's an issue with that computer. Also the remote computer can shh into other computers just fine. Any ideas? | 03:48 |
| KI4RO | blnk, It is complaining that it needs a plugin that I cannot locate | 03:49 |
| blnk | KI4RO, what part of the process is it struggling with? and which plugin is it requesting? | 03:49 |
| MishaX2 | @klloveall are you still as remote user logged in? | 03:50 |
| MishaX2 | @klloveall whoami | 03:50 |
| klloveall | @mishaX2, well it shows kennyloveall, which is my username on both machines. I closed the SSH connection though, so I assume I'm back into my local machine. (also I have physical access to the other machine so I can run commands on it) | 03:51 |
| KI4RO | blnk, Additional software is required to encode media in your preferred format: | 03:51 |
| KI4RO | MPEG-1 Layer 3 (MP3) encoder | 03:51 |
| KI4RO | blnk, When I start the extract process | 03:52 |
| KI4RO | blnk, The following plugin is required: | 03:53 |
| KI4RO | MPEG-1 Layer 3 (MP3) encoder | 03:54 |
| MishaX2 | @klloveall what does "cat /etc/hostname" return? Your local machine or remote? | 03:54 |
| klloveall | local machine | 03:54 |
| blnk | KI4RO, it looks like you will need to install the Restricted Extras package | 03:55 |
| MishaX2 | even when you're tried to connect via ssh? | 03:55 |
| blnk | KI4RO you are using Ubuntu correct? | 03:55 |
| KI4RO | blnk, Thanks, I'll go find it...Yes, 12.10 | 03:55 |
| klloveall | yep, which is odd | 03:56 |
| blnk | KI4RO, try this apt:ubuntu-restricted-extras?section=universe?section=multiverse | 03:56 |
| blnk | KI4RO, go to this website and just click on the link for ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats | 03:56 |
| kasunokira | +i | 03:57 |
| blnk | KI4RO, it should bring you to the Software Center and you can hit the install button | 03:57 |
| MishaX2 | So basically you enter ssh user@remotemachine.... it asks for your password... everything goes okay, but you're on your local machine? | 03:57 |
| KI4RO | blnk Thank you sir...I'll give it a try | 03:57 |
| klloveall | yep, exactly | 03:58 |
| blnk | KI4RO, I'll stick around here for a little longer so you can let me know if it works | 03:58 |
| MishaX2 | wtf | 03:58 |
| klloveall | and both my local and remote machine have the same username/password, so idk... | 03:58 |
| MishaX2 | Okay, that's a really weird problem... hmm | 03:59 |
| klloveall | my thoughts exactly | 04:00 |
| KI4RO | blnk, Says I already have it...since 04 04 12 | 04:02 |
| === jeremy_ is now known as Guest21120 | ||
| thufir_ | how or where is my secondary hard drive? I want to browse the files which are on it. https://gist.github.com/4377734 | 04:02 |
| MishaX2 | klloveall anything suspicious when you run ssh -v ? | 04:02 |
| klloveall | mishax2, I'm wondering if somehow its routing the ssh request back to my local machine, for some unknown reason? | 04:02 |
| klloveall | mishax2, yeah, for some reason it has the IP address of the remote machine listed as 127.0.0.1 | 04:04 |
| MishaX2 | hmm | 04:04 |
| MishaX2 | okay | 04:04 |
| MishaX2 | so | 04:05 |
| klloveall | it should be 192.168.1.3... | 04:05 |
| MishaX2 | Something might be wrong in your /etc/hosts file | 04:05 |
| blnk | KI4RO, yout might need "libavcodec-extra-52" available here http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/libavcodec-extra-52 | 04:05 |
| MishaX2 | what's in there? anything mapped to 127.0.0.1 other than your local machinename? | 04:05 |
| klloveall | mishax2, all it lists in there is localhost and THOR (the name of my local machine). There's also some IPv6 addresses (none of which are the name of my remote machine), but that's it. | 04:06 |
| Uzi | I cant seem to get my remote printer setup can someone please help? This is the driver I need: I can't seem to get it added to the print program (i'm using the gui because im tired and clicking through the steps..) http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/download_prn.html#MFC-J615W | 04:06 |
| thufir_ | how do I mount sdb? https://gist.github.com/4377734 | 04:06 |
| Uzi | anyone ? | 04:07 |
| daftykins | thufir_: pastebin the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' | 04:07 |
| MishaX2 | klloveall what if you run "tracepath 192.168.1.3"? | 04:09 |
| blnk | KI4RO, I've got an easier route for you, open up "Synaptic Package Manager" | 04:09 |
| thufir_ | fdisk -l and other output to mount secondary hard drive (hdb?) https://gist.github.com/4377734 I'm not sure whether it's the master or slave hard drive. | 04:10 |
| thufir_ | Uzi: for what it's worth, my Samsung didn't need a that, Ubuntu figured it out when I connected it. have you tried that first? | 04:11 |
| KI4RO | blnk, Okay will do | 04:11 |
| klloveall | well, it traces it to the old name of that computer (I had one install of ubuntu on it, and recently partitioned it and installed a second. It's showing the old hostname | 04:12 |
| thufir_ | daftykins: fdisk -l and other output to mount secondary hard drive (hdb?) https://gist.github.com/4377734 I'm not sure whether it's the master or slave hard drive. | 04:12 |
| daftykins | thufir_: hrmm, says it was an LVM install. you just want to know the commands to mount the partitions is it? | 04:12 |
| Uzi | tried to what? connect the printer to the pc? i can't no cable | 04:12 |
| blnk | KI4RO, You will need an admin password to get into it. then under "quick filter", type in "libavcodec-extra" without the quotations | 04:12 |
| klloveall | mishax2, oh that's strange.... if I connect to ssh [old hostname] then it connects to the remote machine... strange... | 04:13 |
| thufir_ | daftykins: hmm. you sure it's LVM? maybe that's the other disc. I just want to browse the files (will use DAR to backup) | 04:13 |
| klloveall | any ideas on what I need to do to, I guess, refresh the hostname resolution? | 04:14 |
| thufir_ | Uzi: well, I would do that first before mucking with wifi, but that's just my two cents. | 04:14 |
| MishaX2 | yeah probably... | 04:14 |
| MishaX2 | lol | 04:14 |
| Uzi | well it's not a wifi issue | 04:14 |
| thufir_ | klloveall: /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname I think. | 04:14 |
| Uzi | I'm having issues connecting to a remote printer. The way ubuntu machine is setup: I have a cat5 cable running into my other pc which is wirelessly connected to my router.

| MishaX2 | no | 04:14 |
| Uzi | first post | 04:14 |
| MishaX2 | wait | 04:14 |
| Uzi | if you read that you can see how i connected it lol | 04:14 |
| daftykins | thufir_: mkdir /media/hdd1 && mount /dev/sdb5 /media/hdd1 (that might error) | 04:14 |
| thufir_ | daftykins: thx | 04:15 |
| MishaX2 | try: sudo /etc/init.d/nscd restart | 04:15 |
| MishaX2 | and sudo /etc/init.d/dns-clean start | 04:15 |
| pictron | Hey guys, my dpkg somehow was completely borked by the 12.10 upgrade | 04:15 |
| KI4RO | blnk, Not getting synaptic running but can get into software updater | 04:15 |
| MishaX2 | @klloveall lemme know if it works :) | 04:16 |
| pictron | any time I want to use dpkg it says: | 04:16 |
| KI4RO | blnk Out of steam here...going to take a break...many thanks for trying to help...Merry Christmas | 04:16 |
| pictron | "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." | 04:16 |
| daftykins | pictron: so what happens when you run that? | 04:17 |
| blnk | KI4RO, I'm pretty sure all you need is the libavcodec. A quick google search should give you instructions | 04:17 |
| pictron | When I run that command, dpkg gets stuck at configuring the initial RAM fs | 04:17 |
| klloveall | mishax2, the first one didn't exist, and the second one didn't do anything | 04:17 |
| thufir_ | mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member' https://gist.github.com/4377734 gives error: | 04:18 |
| thufir_ | Uzi: is the printer connected to the pc with windows? via usb? then windows box and linux box are on the same network with cat5? | 04:19 |
| MishaX2 | klloveall have you restarted the networking service after you changed the hostnames? | 04:19 |
| thufir_ | Uzi: does the windows box print fine? 1.) first, maybe just use the windows pc to print for right now, plus test that. 2.) if windows won't print, then fix that first. | 04:20 |
| daftykins | thufir_: google a guide on how to mount LVM | 04:20 |
| thufir_ | daftykins: ok. thank, I didn't realize it was lvm. | 04:20 |
| pictron | gyazo.com/e17faf1599b80c6f0001c05bb6ccfeb0.png | 04:20 |
| pictron | gets stuck right there | 04:20 |
| Uzi | no the windows PC is connected via wifi and is also connected to the lan via wifi. The linux pc is has a cat 5 patch cable running to the WINDOWS pc to share the inet | 04:20 |
| blnk | KI4RO, if you can't get synaptics open, you could open the terminal with Ctrl+Alt+T and enter "sudo apt-get install libavcodec-extra-53" without the quotations | 04:21 |
| Uzi | windows pc has worked fine i just installed ubuntu about 24 hours ago and have been setting up everything non stop | 04:21 |
| WeThePeople | how do i set a wallpaper img.? | 04:23 |
| pictron | any guesses? | 04:23 |
| WeThePeople | what are some alternatives to setting a wallpaper | 04:24 |
| WeThePeople | ? | 04:24 |
| WeThePeople | the method i am using is not working | 04:24 |
| klloveall | mishax2, well I just restarted it, which crashed my computer, so I accidentally restarted the entire machine, and it still isn't working | 04:25 |
| thufir_ | Uzi: for what it's worth, I would say there's a 99% chance that connecting the printer to the linux box will install the requisite drivers, which may (?) help with LVM printing. for what it's worth: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BrotherDriverPackaging | 04:26 |
| Uzi | i would if i could | 04:27 |
| Uzi | lol | 04:27 |
| Uzi | thanks for your help anyways | 04:27 |
| thufir_ | is fdisk -lu destructive? | 04:29 |
| KI4RO | blnk says I already have it | 04:29 |
| thufir_ | Uzi: did you try to install your drive with a package manager? | 04:30 |
| gotoguy | no, I don't think so, why you need it? | 04:30 |
| Uzi | i didn't notice that they made a .deb file so i used a program to convert the rpm to a deb | 04:31 |
| gotoguy | alien? | 04:31 |
| Uzi | it messed up and being i haven't used linix in oh... 4 years i forgot how to freaking fix it | 04:31 |
| Uzi | yes alien | 04:31 |
| MishaX2 | klloveall I don't know | 04:31 |
| MishaX2 | klloveall sorry... | 04:32 |
| thufir_ | Uzi: ouch. err, that sounds like a bad idea. is your driver listed in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BrotherDriverPackaging ? | 04:32 |
| klloveall | haha, it's cool. me neither | 04:32 |
| gotoguy | I used to install manually, but for this ubuntu I used a live disc. | 04:32 |
| Uzi | http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public_s/id/linux/en/download_prn.html#MFC-J615W | 04:32 |
| Uzi | that's my driver | 04:32 |
| Uzi | for linux | 04:32 |
| pictron | When I run that dpkg --configure -a, dpkg gets stuck at configuring the initial RAM fs | 04:32 |
| pictron | gyazo.com/e17faf1599b80c6f0001c05bb6ccfeb0.png | 04:32 |
| thufir_ | I'm following http://www.vxbus.com/software/linux/150-how-to-mount-lvm-partions-in-ubuntu.html but when I run vgscan it only picks up hte hard drive I'm using, not the hard drive I wish to mount. https://gist.github.com/4377734 | 04:33 |
| thufir_ | Uzi: I would suggest removing whatever .deb you installed first. once it's gone, just use install the driver on that webpage. sounds simple so far as that goes. Dunno about LPI, though. | 04:35 |
| Uzi | yeah i'll figure it out eventually | 04:35 |
| Uzi | i have an idea for your other hd trying to recall the tool arg | 04:35 |
| Uzi | GParted | 04:36 |
| Uzi | .. | 04:36 |
| Uzi | brb bathroom | 04:36 |
| thufir_ | Uzi: right, thx. | 04:37 |
| thufir_ | daftykins: it's volume group 'dur' https://gist.github.com/4377734 | 04:40 |
| daftykins | thufir_: sorry i have no experience with LVM | 04:43 |
| thufir_ | daftykins: np. thanks. you're positive it's LVM? it's not maybe that the drive I'm using is LVM? | 04:44 |
| Flannel | thufir_: That link is dead. | 04:44 |
| daftykins | thufir_: can't say, just went by what fdisk said | 04:45 |
| thufir_ | Flannel: it's stupid github/gist problem. yeah, I'll repost, pardon about that. | 04:45 |
| pictron | Nobody knows how to fix this dpkg issue? | 04:46 |
| Uzi | back | 04:46 |
| pictron | damn... | 04:47 |
| Uzi | Synaptic Package Manager isn't loading. It was working fine when I installed it tonight. Now all I can get it to do is ask for sudo password | 04:48 |
| Flannel | thufir_: Also, vgscan will only pick up volume groups, are you sure the second hard drive you have has LVM stuff set up already? | 04:48 |
| Uzi | SU* | 04:48 |
| tozen | Uzi: sudo apt-get install -- reinstall synaptic ? | 04:48 |
| thufir_ | Flannel: I'm not 100% sure it's LVM. sigh, patience on pastie pls. | 04:48 |
| pictron | Uzi, Try running it from the command line and see what happens when it crashes | 04:48 |
| Flannel | thufir_: No worries. You can use paste.ubuntu.com (or a plethora of others) if you're having pastebin issues. | 04:49 |
| tozen | pictron: seems it doesnt starts | 04:49 |
| roasted_ | hello! | 04:50 |
| Uzi | working from command | 04:50 |
| Uzi | :) | 04:50 |
| roasted_ | It seems as if Unity is not showing me any sort of GUI. I log in, see my background, and that's it. No dash, top bar, etc. Is there a command I can run to reinitate everything? | 04:50 |
| pictron | So then there's something wrong with your launcher then | 04:50 |

| rkhshm | i'm trying to debug a kernel module issue with respect to a SCSI device .. when i try to load the module and check dmesg all seems to be OK, but when i check fdisk -l i see that the SCSI device is begin detected but see an error "Disk /dev/sdb doesn't contain a valid partition table" | 04:54 |
| Flannel | thufir_: You mean /dev/sdb5? | 04:54 |
| thufir_ | Flannel: just mount the hard drive and brows files. is /dev/sdb5 ~30GB? I couldn't get human output for that. | 04:55 |
| rkhshm | Furthermore after some research i find that this issue is because of "BAD MAGIC NUMBER" | 04:55 |
| rkhshm | any ideas on how i can start fixing this issue? | 04:55 |

| Flannel | thufir_: Please pastebin the output of `fdisk -l`, LVM doesn't have any notion of "hard drive" size. I'm not sure what you're asking. It looks like you have a logical volume that's ~26.4GiB, and one that's ~2GiB | 04:56 |

| tozen | now ideathen | 04:59 |
| tozen | sorry | 04:59 |
| tozen | pal | 04:59 |
| roasted_ | I think part of the problem was a command I issued in terminal. | 05:00 |
| roasted_ | I was trying to mount an external hard drive, but I did a typo. I ended up mounting my root drive to /media/external. | 05:00 |
| Flannel | thufir_: Ah, ok. Then that initial instructions you posted was actually correct, albeit less helpful than it could be. I assume you're interested in mounting it to recover data from, and not to use permanently, correct? | 05:00 |
| tozen | roasted_: what the command? | 05:00 |
| roasted_ | I ended up rebooting then, at which point I got to a terminal login screen. I powered it off, let it sit for a few seconds, powered it on. It did a disk check and everything booted up fine. | 05:00 |
| thufir_ | Flannel: yes. I'm somewhat familiar with DAR (disk archiver) and will back up the data. one time operation. | 05:00 |
| roasted_ | tozen: just (as root) mount /dev/sdd2 /media/external. (sdd2 being where the root OS is) | 05:00 |
| roasted_ | tozen: but even when rebooted now, I run "mount" in terminal and sdd2 is on /... everything looks great. But now Unity is being picky. | 05:01 |

| thufir_ | I'm confused about step 5. . Activate the volume. my group is 'dur'? | 05:04 |
| thufir_ | I skipped the modprobe but will do that one to be sure. | 05:05 |
| Uzi | shit not owrking but new idea lol | 05:05 |
| Flannel | thufir_: Yeah, "dur" is your volume group. | 05:05 |
| thufir_ | modprobe just returns after 'modprobe dm-mod' so I guess it's there. so : sudo vgchange -ay dur is the command? | 05:06 |
| Flannel | thufir_: although, since those next commands worked, it makes me think that that was already done successfully, and you can just make a mountpoint, and mount /dev/dur/root to it. | 05:06 |

| dr_willis | sgo11: befor you boot the os. in the grub menus is a memtest option | 06:52 |
| dr_willis | where its always been. ;) | 06:53 |
| sgo11 | dr_willis, grub menu from ubuntu or from live bootable usb? | 06:54 |
| dr_willis | sgo11: on both i think. definatly on an installed system | 06:54 |

| sgo11 | dr_willis, I don't have ubuntu installed on that desktop which I want to run test. let me check the usb again. I think I didn't see any grub menu. | 06:55 |
| dr_willis | tyfaust: huh? what timerlimit? | 06:56 |
| tyfaust | dr_willisL It is cli login at the beginning of the boot up process... if you take too long entering your password you get kicked... I cannot type it fast enough. | 06:57 |
| dr_willis | so how is having it in your prompt going to help? | 06:57 |
| dr_willis | and the login: timeout is like 3 min i thought. | 06:57 |
| dr_willis | or are you logging in via ssh? | 06:58 |
| tyfaust | If I could include it in my username it wouldn't be a probelm ad the countdown only starts when you start in the password | 06:58 |
| sgo11 | dr_willis, I just reboot the desktop with live usb. I don't see any grub menu. I don't want to install ubuntu on that desktop just for running a memory test. I remembered old ubuntu live CD/USB has that option. | 06:59 |
| dr_willis | exactly whers/how are you logging in that it takes you several min to type in a password. | 06:59 |
| dr_willis | sgo11: theres also system rescue type cds thaty include memtest and other tools | 06:59 |
| sgo11 | dr_willis, ok. I will google it. thanks. | 07:00 |
| dr_willis | sgo11: for the live cd/usb you may need to hit space when you see the little man=keybord icon at the bottom | 07:02 |
| sgo11 | dr_willis, I can try that. thanks a lot. ^_^ | 07:02 |

| DrManhattan | How do I set the framebuffer size with the nouveau driver? | 07:39 |
| sandeep | Jordan_U: the other problem is, it can be compiled using gcj -o foo.exe foo.java but the resulting exe is not able to run in Windows | 07:39 |
| Jordan_U | sandeep: I would expect that gcj is not outputing a Windows executable, but rather a standard java bytecode class file, which needs to be passed to a java interpreter to actually be executed. | 07:41 |
| sandeep | Jordan_U: it outputs an executable file which runs well in wine but when i try to run in Windows it tells me that it is not supported | 07:42 |
| Mug | Ripthejacker: click on the network icon in the top panel->choose edit connections->edit the wired connection. Under IPv4 settings you can manually set your default ip | 07:43 |
| Mug | Crap, he quit already | 07:44 |
| Jordan_U | sandeep: Are you sure that wine isn't simply being smart enough to look at the file's magic and pass it to a java interpreter (even if it is probably a Windows version of the java interpreter as installed in wine)? | 07:44 |
| Jordan_U | sandeep: javac certainly generates java bytecode with no windows executable portion by default, I expect that gcj does the same. | 07:45 |
| sandeep | no gcj does not generate any bytecode rather it compiles to an exe extension which is a standard exe | 07:46 |
| Jordan_U | sandeep: Making a .jar file rather than a .class file still won't add any Windows executable code, but it might get Windows to hand the file off to the JVM automatically when double clicked. | 07:46 |

| rp__ | hello! - waht kernel should I use for core 2 support? | 08:21 |
| mvt007geek | is it good to use lvm or not? | 08:22 |
| superkuh | Is it just me, or is the netcat in the ubuntu repositories missing some things? | 08:22 |
| Ririshi | anyone can help me? | 08:22 |
| Jordan_U | rp__: Any kernel will support core2. If you want 64 bit then use a 64 bit kernel. (and of course it's recommended to use an official Ubuntu kernel) | 08:23 |
| Glitchd | tozen, can i pm you? | 08:23 |
| rp__ | Ririshi: no ;) | 08:23 |
| Ririshi | ... | 08:23 |
| rp__ | Jordan_U: thank you | 08:23 |
| Ririshi | oh wow.. i've waited here for 20 mins for nothing ): | 08:23 |
| tozen | Glitchd: no, please your request isnt my specification | 08:24 |
| Glitchd | tozen, sry i just pmd u | 08:24 |
| etfb | Glitchd: Your question is worrying. Why do you want to make your /var directory visible to a Windows machine? | 08:24 |
| Jordan_U | mvt007geek: If you use LVM then you need to perform extra steps and install LVM tools if you want to mount your filesystem from a LiveCD. That's about the only reason I can think of not to use LVM. | 08:24 |
| rp__ | just got 100% kernel use - openshot + firefox using | 08:24 |
| Jordan_U | rp__: You're welcome. | 08:24 |
| tozen | Ririshi: wats happened? | 08:25 |
| Glitchd | etfb, because like i said i run a server from the linux box, and there are other folders beside the www inside the /var folder that i need to access and i dont want to only be able to access them with putty or some other ssh client. | 08:25 |
| etfb | Glitchd: Ah, I see. Well, in theory sharing any folder would be the same. There's no "thou shalt not make this folder visible" built in to Linux. | 08:26 |
| Jordan_U | Ririshi: Is your boot firmware configured to give error messages in Dutch? | 08:26 |
| etfb | Glitchd: So what sort of program would you use to access /var/www, for example? | 08:26 |
| Glitchd | etfb, rightright, but it seems that i cant figure out how to share this folder even tho i was able to share and mount the other ones in windows | 08:26 |
| Ririshi | tozen: this: I've made a bootable USB Stick for lubuntu 12.10, but every time I boot from it, it tells me: "Verwijder schijven of media" which is, in english: "Remove disks or media". I've tried making a bootable USB with Unetbootin, LiLi and Universal USB Installer and they all give me the same error. Anyone could help me with this? | 08:26 |
| Glitchd | etfb, well right now i can only access it with putty | 08:27 |
| Ririshi | Jordan_U: idk xD it just gave me them in Dutch.. | 08:27 |
| alusion | etfb: yes in a way but I am using kde so I have a shortcut to change opacity and it changes everything | 08:27 |
| etfb | Glitchd: Sounds odd. What would you *like* to use? | 08:27 |
| Ririshi | Jordan_U: my windows7 here is in dutch.. | 08:27 |
| Glitchd | etfb, but i have the other folders mounted in "my computer" and can access them from there | 08:27 |
| Ririshi | Jordan_U: I'm on my moms small old laptop | 08:27 |
| alusion | etfb: It'd be convenient to change opacity of a window and it just changes the background | 08:27 |
| etfb | Glitchd: Oh! I bet your /var is on a different volume, is it? That is, /var has been installed to one physical disk and the others (/etc, /home and so on) on another. Is that right? | 08:28 |
| Glitchd | etfb, i would just like to know how to share it and i can mount it where i like, weather it be in network or if i put the network share in "my computer" | 08:28 |
| tozen | Ririshi: did u setup boot from usb in BIOS? | 08:28 |
| Glitchd | etfb, not at all. | 08:28 |
| Jordan_U | alusion: That would be increasing the transparency, not increasing the opacity. You can only do it with apps that specifically support having a transparent background, like GNOME Terminal. | 08:28 |
| Ririshi | tozen: as in my usb is my first boot option? | 08:28 |
| Glitchd | etfb, they are all on the same computer, same partition, same everything | 08:28 |

| Glitchd | etfb, lol that just doesnt help me.; | 08:29 |
| etfb | Glitchd: true, but it's better than nothing. | 08:29 |
| Glitchd | etfb, how would u go about sharing any other folder then? | 08:29 |
| Glitchd | etfb, indeed indeed | 08:29 |
| piglord | how many GB for bt5 r3 partition? | 08:29 |
| Glitchd | etfb, just trying to trouble shoot the problem | 08:29 |
| etfb | Glitchd: Try a test: make a symlink to /var from a directory that already works. | 08:29 |
| tozen | Ririshi: yes your usb should have first boot option | 08:30 |
| Glitchd | etfb, how do u make a symlink? | 08:30 |
| Ririshi | tozen: that's good.. | 08:30 |
| tozen | in BIOS | 08:30 |
| etfb | Presuming your home directory is /home/glitchd, you'd do this: | 08:30 |
| Glitchd | it is | 08:30 |
| etfb | ln -s /home/glitchd/var /var | 08:30 |
| cypher_ | hey i'm having trouble getting compiz to cube | 08:30 |
| etfb | Oh arse. Sorry, typo. | 08:30 |
| etfb | ln -s /var /home/glitchd/var | 08:31 |
| cypher_ | i might be having some graphic's issues.. I have these white and black bars at startup | 08:31 |
| Glitchd | etfb, well shit the first command worked | 08:31 |
| Glitchd | lol | 08:31 |
| etfb | Really? I am confused then... | 08:31 |
| Glitchd | etfb, but now i have to figure out how to access it over the network, or share it to the network so i can mount it in windows | 08:32 |
| etfb | The second command is the one you want. First could only have worked by accident. | 08:32 |
| etfb | Type ls ~/var and you should see a listing of /var, because one is now a portal into the other, just like in that game... | 08:33 |
| keber | vasak kardinal kaitseb 2 emakast välja tulnud 4 ükskotti ja paavst kaitseb 2 emakast välja tulnud 4 jumalat | 08:34 |
| Glitchd | etfb, yes now the link is also in the /var folder as well as in my home folder | 08:34 |
| etfb | Glitchd: that's the result of the first command, which succeeded by coincidence. You can delete that link with rm | 08:35 |
| * etfb wonders what the command is in this channel to tell someone that we don't speak Viking... | 08:35 | |
| Glitchd | lol | 08:36 |
| Glitchd | etfb, ok so it removed now. | 08:36 |
| * cfhowlett viking? not Klingon? | 08:36 | |
| Glitchd | etfb, now what do i do? | 08:36 |
| etfb | From the Windows machine, try using Explorer or whatever you use to go to /home/glitchd/var, and see if you now have indirect access to /var. | 08:37 |
| Glitchd | etfb, well how would i if i just removed the folder it put in there? | 08:37 |
| etfb | Glitchd: The second ln command creates the symlink in your home directory, pointing to /var. The first ln command, which was an error, created a symlink in your var directory, pointing gods only know where. | 08:39 |
| Glitchd | lol ok | 08:39 |

| DrManhattan | im trying to run ubuntu in text mode, but the nouveau driver is forcing the highest resolution possible. How can I change this? | 08:39 |
| onlyHuman | having trouble with a website and i think it might be an ubuntu problem. does this play?: http://98.207.221.176/home//index.php?route=product/product&product_id=51 | 08:40 |
| Glitchd | etfb, yep it was there in networks now, and i was able to put the network share in my computer | 08:41 |
| Glitchd | etfb, thank you. | 08:41 |
| DrManhattan | works fine here Glitchd | 08:41 |
| Glitchd | DrManhattan, huh? | 08:42 |
| DrManhattan | sorry, I mean onlyHuman | 08:42 |
| Glitchd | onlyHuman, yes it plays for me too | 08:42 |
| Glitchd | onlyHuman, yes it plays from here too | 08:42 |
| DrManhattan | damn steam for linux has almost NO games | 08:42 |
| onlyHuman | well then its just a prob w/ my comp | 08:43 |
| Glitchd | DrManhattan, yupyup | 08:43 |
| DrManhattan | im going to try team fortress 2 though | 08:43 |
| Glitchd | onlyHuman, do any other sites work, like youtube? | 08:43 |
| Glitchd | DrManhattan, good luck | 08:43 |
| onlyHuman | everything works but my site | 08:43 |
| Glitchd | onlyHuman, well one thing i noticed was that it needed a plugin, since i have vlc configured to run things like that it asked me if it was ok before playing the music | 08:44 |
| onlyHuman | its a movie & did it state what plugin it wanted? | 08:45 |
| Glitchd | onlyHuman, nope it just asked if it was ok for vlc to play the content | 08:45 |
| DrManhattan | onlyHuman, played with flash here | 08:46 |
| onlyHuman | its so weird... i have another product page that has a diff video of the same type that plays fine. its just that 1 file | 08:49 |
| etfb | Glitchd: Cool. It doesn't solve the problem of why your system is refusing to allow access to /var, but it does give you what you need to keep working, so it's a partial win. | 08:50 |
| onlyHuman | both are .webm using flv/ogg encoded with OpenShot | 08:51 |
| Jordan_U | onlyHuman: flv video can't go in a webm container. | 08:54 |
| onlyHuman | some one tell the OpenShot devs cuz i sure didnt know that | 08:55 |
| cfhowlett | onlyHuman: nor did I ... | 08:55 |
| Jordan_U | onlyHuman: The video you linked to is webm, and therefor used the VP8 video codec. | 08:55 |
| onlyHuman | i encoded it with openshot and specified flv video codec @ 384kbps & libogg i think @ 128kbps | 08:56 |
| Jordan_U | onlyHuman: Why aren't you using the html5 video tag? I expect any browser that will support webm will support the html5 video tag, and you will avoid the problems with for example Google Chrome trying to use a plugin rather than just using its native webm support. | 08:57 |
| onlyHuman | yeah now ppl tell me. i've been asking around on google n bing n irc for 3 days n got the run around | 08:57 |
| onlyHuman | dont use embed cuz its depricated so use embed | 08:58 |

| Rootbrian | ndiniz: I'm not sure how to do that. | 09:50 |
| ndiniz | I've installed Linux on a separate hard drive, but when I go to restart the computer, it goes into grub rescue mode | 09:51 |
| Rootbrian | ndiniz: recommending you use grub-install /dev/sdx (x name of drive number/partition) | 09:51 |
| dr_willis | hmm. not sure about 'removeing' grub from the mbr. other then to install some other bootloader there. ;) | 09:56 |
| onlyHuman | really? windows has fdisk /mbr so im sure theres a command (dd maybe?) | 09:57 |

| dr_willis | whats the error? | 10:13 |
| dr_willis | DrCode: i imagine most enclosures use the usb standards so should work. unless its got some really weird features | 10:14 |
| AleksPG | <dr_willis> the error is as follows | 10:14 |
| AleksPG | Error mounting system-managed device /dev/sda1: Command-line `mount "/media/Data"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so | 10:14 |
| Snurre86 | I don't know dr_willis | 10:14 |
| DrCode | thanx dr_jesus | 10:15 |
| DrCode | dr_willis, I just want to be sure | 10:15 |
| DrCode | it is supported in MAC | 10:15 |
| dr_willis | AleksPG: whats the exact mount command you are using? | 10:15 |
| DrCode | so I guess it will work under ubuntu | 10:15 |
| Rootbrian | Snurre86: try sudo top -d 1 to let it update once per second, this way, it gives you super user privileges to kill zombie processes or stuck processes, such if something freezes and won't go away, you'll need to kill xorg to fix that. | 10:15 |
| AleksPG | This was after I tried mounting it as read only by modifying etc/fstab | 10:15 |
| dr_willis | if using fstab whats the fstab line for it? | 10:16 |
| AleksPG | <dr_willis> I modified the fstab by adding "UUID=6020a538-f02b-4cb0-9081-55f2aadd44f0 /media/Data ext4 defaults,umask=222 0 0" | 10:17 |
| Rootbrian | AleksPG: Mount using ntfs-3g | 10:18 |
| riderplus | how can i enable guake autostart WITH notification on gnome shell? unless i uncheck "enable popup notification" it doesn't autostart | 10:19 |
| riderplus | on 12.10...the bug is not fixed | 10:19 |
| Rootbrian | riderplus: answered your question, turn it back on? | 10:19 |
| AleksPG | but when I run sudo blkid it says it is a TYPE="ext4" | 10:20 |
| Rootbrian | AleksPG: The partition is mixed up. | 10:21 |
| riderplus | Rootbrian: if i enable it, it doesn't autostart | 10:21 |
| Rootbrian | AleksPG: Or it could be mismatched. Force it under ntfs3g | 10:21 |
| AleksPG | I thought so too, probably by attempting to install ubuntu onto it. So what can I do to access the files | 10:22 |
| AleksPG | Ok, ill try | 10:22 |
| Rootbrian | riderplus: I don't really know what to suggest. Maybe add it to the startup programs list? | 10:22 |
| riderplus | it conflicts with system notification | 10:22 |
| riderplus | I've done that | 10:22 |
| riderplus | it doesn't start with notification on | 10:22 |
| Rootbrian | riderplus all I can suggest now is maybe use a PPA? | 10:23 |
| AleksPG | hmm, i get NTFS signature is missing. Failed to mount '/dev/sda1': Invalid argument The device '/dev/sda1' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS. Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around? | 10:23 |
| dr_willis | AleksPG: i dont think you use umask with ext4 | 10:24 |
| AleksPG | what should i change the command to? | 10:24 |
| dr_willis | just try a simple.... | 10:24 |
| riderplus | Rootbrian: what PPA> | 10:24 |
| riderplus | ? | 10:24 |
| Rootbrian | AleksPG: If it were a hard disk, things would probably be allot easier. Flash memory is harder to recover much from. | 10:25 |
| ThinkT510 | riderplus: i'd avoid ppas | 10:25 |
| dr_willis | mount /dev/sdxx /media/wgatever | 10:25 |
| ThinkT510 | !ppa | riderplus | 10:25 |
| ubottu | riderplus: A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge | 10:25 |
| Rootbrian | riderplus; cheese doesn't work on ubuntu 12.04 or 12.10, therefore a PPA needs to be used. Same for the program you're wanting to use. Check on via a web search for a ppa maybe? | 10:25 |
| AleksPG | Well you know, the files I will be losing are not that important, just convenient to have (all of my installation files for various programs I use) If you think it isnt worth the hassle I can wipe it and move on. Or maybe something like gparted could work? | 10:26 |
| Rootbrian | AleksPG: You could give GParted a go. | 10:26 |

| AleksPG | should I restore the etc/fstab to what it was before? or leave it altered | 10:28 |
| Rootbrian | DrManhatten: It's probably the way the graphics card and driver interact. | 10:28 |
| Rootbrian | AleksPG: restore it. | 10:28 |
| DrManhattan | dr_willis, that is correct, sir | 10:28 |
| dr_willis | DrManhattan: could be the framebuffer also causeing it. | 10:29 |
| dr_willis | not nouveau | 10:29 |
| * DrManhattan begins to cry | 10:29 | |
| AleksPG | I used "sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.orig" to save a backup, noob question but what will be the command to restore it :) | 10:29 |
| dr_willis | ncdia drivers may disable the framebuffer | 10:29 |
| dr_willis | bbl | 10:29 |
| * DrManhattan hangs himself | 10:30 | |

| srhb | jennie: What did you do to upgrade? | 10:41 |
| neon__ | hello | 10:41 |
| jennie | I ran command in CMD , let me check the command | 10:42 |
| neon__ | I am running debian squeeze. I am wondering if I should move to ubuntu | 10:42 |
| srhb | neon__: Why? | 10:42 |
| jennie | [2012-12-23 13:03:27] <Noskcaj> or type "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 10:43 |
| srhb | jennie: That's wrong. | 10:43 |
| jennie | ^ | 10:43 |
| srhb | jennie: You need to use the do-release-upgrade command. | 10:43 |
| neon__ | srhb, becuase a lot of stuff don't work well | 10:43 |
| jennie | what is command for that ? | 10:43 |

| srhb | jennie: Might have been messed up by the dist upgrade, I guess. | 10:44 |
| fomalhaut | hello | 10:44 |
| jennie | then what should I do now srhb please tell | 10:44 |
| neon__ | srhb, like audacity take lots of CPU%, skype is a very old beta version, mythtv don't work because it is hard to setup I think but maybe it is the debian, | 10:44 |
| srhb | jennie: I don't know, sorry. | 10:45 |
| srhb | neon__: Right, Ubuntu is more consumerish, so you probably would enjoy that more. | 10:45 |
| neon__ | srhb, gnash is taking lots of CPU% | 10:45 |
| neon__ | srhb, is it possible to try ubuntu on the same partition, without destroying the debian, just in case I don't like ubuntu, and want to return? | 10:46 |
| MonkeyDust | neon__ start with a live cd or usb | 10:47 |
| neon__ | MonkeyDust, where is the live usb? | 10:47 |
| MonkeyDust | neon__ ubuntu.com/download | 10:47 |
| srhb | neon__: Not on the same partition, no. Ubuntu is based off Debian and even if it weren't, they would still conflict. The LiveCD/USB is a good suggestion to try it out. | 10:47 |
| Rootbrian | neon_: Download it from ubuntu.com/getubuntu | 10:47 |
| mvt007geek | neon__: if you have enough space use a shared /home for both and use the other space for /boot and the other things | 10:48 |
| mvt007geek | even a 1G space is enough | 10:48 |
| mvt007geek | for the rest mines /home | 10:49 |
| neon__ | which version of 64bit ubuntu do u recommend? | 10:49 |
| ykima | Use a shared /home ? | 10:49 |
| ykima | What an absolutely terrible idea. | 10:49 |
| mvt007geek | nio. it's a good idea | 10:50 |
| ykima | No it is not lol. | 10:50 |
| ykima | Debian and Ubuntu use completely different versions of software. | 10:50 |
| mvt007geek | at this time i have a debian near my ubuntu | 10:50 |
| ykima | You don't mix distro config files out of laziness. | 10:50 |
| Rootbrian | neon_: If your system is x86, go with that. | 10:50 |
| neon__ | but should I get lts or 12.10? | 10:50 |
| Rootbrian | neon_: 12.04 LTS. | 10:51 |
| ykima | Just get 12.10. | 10:51 |
| ykima | No reason to go LTS unless upgrading is actually minorly difficult for you. | 10:51 |
| yeats | neon__: obviously it's up to you - the versions are essentially very similar to each other | 10:51 |
| Rootbrian | ykima: I prefer upgrading clean every three years. | 10:52 |
| srhb | neon__: But since you're looking for "newer versions" than your Debian setup, I would say 12.10 | 10:52 |
| adnan | hi, i have one DNS server how can i resolve my Oracle EBS Server's IP on it.. | 10:52 |
| neon__ | I chose 64bit and it start downloading i386 iso, and I want a USB version | 10:53 |
| yeats | of course it's hard to *not* find "newer versions" than Debian, especially if you're on Debian stable | 10:53 |
| Rootbrian | neon_: Use unetbootin. | 10:53 |
| srhb | yeats: Yes. :P | 10:53 |
| adnan | hi, i have one DNS server how can i resolve my Oracle EBS Server's domain on it | 10:53 |
| neon__ | is debian testing differnt than ubuntu? | 10:54 |
| Rootbrian | neon_: Debian is ubuntu's base. | 10:54 |
| adnan | hi, i have one DNS server how can i resolve my Oracle EBS Server's domain on it | 10:54 |

| MonkeyDust | neon__ there's the mini.iso | 11:03 |

| ubottu | neon__: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD).

| neon__ | i.e. if I would put it there and extract the initrd, and vmlinuz , and set the grub right? | 11:06 |
| yeats | neon__: why would you do it that way? why not just let the installer work? | 11:06 |

| etfb | Hey, I found a solution to a problem I was having, thought I might share it, since it was kind of odd. | 11:32 |
| etfb | I couldn't install mysql-server. DPKG was getting dependency errors, passwords were being asked for and not accepted, it was very cryptic. | 11:33 |
| etfb | Turns out the problem was my /tmp directory, which I had set up as a symlink to /var/temporary (for reasons too silly to go into). | 11:33 |
| MonkeyDust | juniour are you using external ppas ? | 11:33 |
| mario_ | !mysql installing | mario_ | 11:33 |

| * etfb checks and finds no libgtranscode either. | 11:40 | |
| antonio_ | etfb: nope | 11:40 |
| etfb | gnusar: I had that trouble. I used aptitude to unmark the packages for installation. | 11:41 |
| dr_willis | juniour: try this yet? --> juniour: i would try either rerunning 'sudo apt-get update' and rename that file, then rerun the 'sudo apt-get update' It could be the file has became currupted | 11:41 |
| srhb | gnusar: You can simply change the command to remove instead of install, can't you | 11:41 |
| juniour | k | 11:41 |
| dr_willis | juniour: i mean rename the file. then rerun the apt-get stuff. ;) | 11:41 |
| gnusar | srhb: well.. I used build-dep pulseaudio ;) | 11:41 |
| srhb | gnusar: Hm.. | 11:41 |
| gnusar | etfb: too bad that aptitude is not installed (yet) | 11:42 |
| antonio_ | etfb: any idea how I can install this? | 11:42 |
| srhb | gnusar: Might still work though, mightn't it | 11:42 |
| srhb | gnusar: Simply pipe the list of packages somewhere else, then remove | 11:42 |
| gnusar | srhb: might be worth a shot | 11:43 |
| srhb | gnusar: It would be easy to just fry all dependencies of whatever you build-dep'ed, but you might want to keep some of them. In which case you're going to have to do some manual filtering. | 11:44 |
| srhb | gnusar: I think the safer version is to do apt-get markauto on all the deps. | 11:44 |
| juniour | dr_willis they are to many | 11:44 |
| juniour | dr_willis irenamed one then another is doing the problem | 11:45 |
| gnusar | srhb: I see.. | 11:45 |
| srhb | Er, apt-mark | 11:45 |
| llutz | antonio_: get the source, build it yourself. but it seems gtranscode is ancient and not developped anymore since 2003. you'd better use avconv/ffmpeg | 11:45 |
| antonio_ | llutz: do you know of any good software to stabilize video? | 11:46 |
| llutz | antonio_: nope | 11:46 |
| invariant | Is there any library anywhere that allows deletion of text objects from PDF files? | 11:48 |
| MonkeyDust | invariant you can do that with inkscape, i guess | 11:49 |
| txthinking | dear all, my chromium can't display jpeg image , but png,gif can display, before this i installed jpegsrc.v8d.tar.gz for lnmp | 11:49 |
| srhb | gnusar: Something like "apt-cache showsrc yourPackage | grep Build-Depends" will give you the package to markauto, then you just need to clean up the output | 11:50 |
| llutz | invariant: pdftk maybe (i'm not sure it can do) | 11:50 |
| invariant | llutz, pdftk does not. | 11:50 |

| MonkeyDust | ranjan but you are trying to update to 10.04.4 250+ desktops, you say | 12:00 |

| max999 | huh? why does ubuntu.com tells, the 32 bit download version of ubuntu is recommended? | 12:00 |
| yeats | max999: because it will work on any system | 12:01 |
| MonkeyDust | max999 because 32bit runs on any harware, 64bit only on 64bit hardware | 12:01 |
| nlux | morning gents | 12:02 |

| uncledeath | Hi folks, I have a strange problem. I am upgrading my home server (Core2Duo E6600, 4GB DDR2, 2x 500GB SATA HDD). A few days ago I set it up with software raid and lvm and it worked fine until it started freezing on any IO related stuff. I have 0,1% CPU usage and loads greater than 10! If any disk operation occurs my system is inresponsive, it takes 5 minutes to log onto it. | 12:05 |
| yeats | kanha: what happened to your system since you last saw the files/directories? any system crashes? updates/upgrades? | 12:05 |
| dr_willis | galacticboy: your flash is 4gb in size and you are using a 3gb persistant file? The apt-cache dirctory is most likely taking a lot of space. | 12:05 |
| uncledeath | I am reinstalling my system for the 10-th time and still no success. Now it is stuck on "setting mdadm" | 12:06 |
| MonkeyDust | uncledeath try #ubuntu-server | 12:06 |
| uncledeath | and I can see that is is resync'ing md | 12:06 |
| uncledeath | ok thanks | 12:06 |

The porblem is, I can boot off one member in degraded mode (if I take out the root mirror), But I can't do likewise off the Rootmirror disk. I get the grub menu but whenever I attempt a boot, the computer freezes. I'm usung Ubuntu 12.10. The Grub command is: linux /@/vmlinuz roo | 12:07 |
| IcePee | t=UUID=<long string> ro rootflags=degraded,subvol=@ quiet splash $vt_handoff. The mirror works, but it seems that the server freezes whenever it trys to mount rw. It's odd, as the livecd froze when I attempted to mount degraded ro | 12:07 |
| galacticboy | ok my doubt is how come a backtrack linux fits in 3 GB with lot of apps and why not my same flash drive can't hold that much if i install in the same flash drive? | 12:07 |
| MonkeyDust | galacticboy backtrack is not supported here | 12:08 |
| dr_willis | galacticboy: your cache directory can get huge... | 12:08 |
| galacticboy | i know i am just giving example | 12:08 |
| dr_willis | look and see.. | 12:08 |
| kanha | yeats: nothing i was just using pytest for a simple test.but it shows that files doesn't exit and when i checked then some files where missing.but when i open my laptop all those files where there and they are important files | 12:08 |
| galacticboy | i want a usb key with all the apps i want in it custom installation through apt-get install | 12:09 |
| yeats | kanha: well files don't delete themselves... do you have backups? | 12:09 |
| IcePee | it's almost like the kernel crashes. | 12:09 |
| dr_willis | galacticboy: every time you install somthing the .deb packages it downloaded are cached to that drive as well... check your cache and see ifits whats taking up space. | 12:09 |
| IcePee | as it doen't even accept ctrl-alt-del | 12:09 |
| galacticboy | ok clearing cache will fix the issue? | 12:10 |
| dr_willis | galacticboy: no idea.. TRY it and see.. | 12:10 |
| kanha | yeats: No i just had recently installed ubuntu 12.10 and moved everything from my backup to this | 12:10 |
| dr_willis | the cache can get quiet large | 12:10 |
| yeats | kanha: okay - step one is to set up some sort of regular backup of your important files - I would back up now in case this indicates some sort of system problem | 12:11 |
| MonkeyDust | galacticboy is this what you want? http://paste.ubuntu.com/1467012/ | 12:11 |
| galacticboy | ok my doubt is how come a backtrack linux fits in 3 GB with lot of apps and why not my same flash drive can't hold that much if i install in the same flash drive? | 12:11 |
| dr_willis | galacticboy: could be they are doing somthing differnt.. | 12:11 |
| dr_willis | galacticboy: we dont know what they do.. go ask in their channel | 12:11 |
| yeats | kanha: then you might try booting up your system with a live CD/USB and running filesystem checks, etc. | 12:11 |
| dr_willis | again.. im guessing its how the cache is handled. | 12:12 |
| galacticboy | i want to do it for ubuntu that's why i am asking | 12:12 |
| dr_willis | id dump the 4 gb flash and get a bigger one and do a full normal install... | 12:12 |
| galacticboy | why need of different distro for me when i can do everything in ubuntu? | 12:12 |
| kanha | yeats: then what next? | 12:13 |
| dr_willis | 4gb is barely enough to do any real work | 12:13 |
| yeats | galacticboy: you're the one who keeps mentioning backtrack, right? | 12:13 |
| galacticboy | not exactly back track it's just a example | 12:13 |
| MonkeyDust | galacticboy type /join #backtrack-linux | 12:13 |
| nlux | oh those pentesters... | 12:14 |
| galacticboy | there if i go and ask i want to do in ubuntu they will direct here! I am in the middle of OS | 12:14 |
| dr_willis | ask them what they do differntly galacticboy .... | 12:14 |
| nlux | then go to ##linux | 12:14 |
| yeats | kanha: I don't know how you removed the files, and since you don't either, they may be just gone (unless you have the resources to do/pay someone to do forensic recovery) | 12:15 |
| galacticboy | You guys are very bad in customization | 12:15 |
| kanha | yeats: oh | 12:15 |
| galacticboy | Anyone can use Ubuntu as it is. I need to change how i need that's what linux means. | 12:15 |
| dr_willis | If you want the most customizeable usb flash drive. do a full install to a bigger flash drive. The live-persistant setup is not ment for long term ussage | 12:15 |
| dr_willis | If its the cache taking up space then set up a script to clean it out at boot. | 12:16 |
| MonkeyDust | galacticboy if you find out how to do what you want, then you are the expert | 12:16 |
| galacticboy | ok thanks for the info. | 12:16 |
| galacticboy | LOL!!!! | 12:16 |
| galacticboy | I'll share it for the Open Source! :) | 12:17 |
| xgoo | :v | 12:17 |
| galacticboy | Bye now, need to experiment a lot! | 12:17 |

| riderplus | it doesn't mount it automatically | 12:21 |
| nlux | riderplus put it in the fstab | 12:22 |

| RangerBob | are you trying to list partitions on a device? | 12:25 |
| IcePee | RangerBob, I think he want's to know the FS | 12:26 |
| riderplus | the device shows only under /proc/partitions | 12:26 |
| riderplus | I want it to pop up on my desktop | 12:26 |
| riderplus | when I insert it | 12:26 |
| riderplus | it happens with other usb flashes | 12:26 |
| IcePee | riderplus, does it mantualy mount? | 12:26 |
| riderplus | with this one no | 12:27 |
| max999 | something is weird here. trying to create a ubuntu liveusb, gparted / usb-creator dont recognize the stick correctly, they show me a 1gb partition but dont recognize the whole stick (2 gb), i can see the other partition in the filemanager without problems though. | 12:27 |
| riderplus | IcePee: i haven't tried | 12:27 |
| IcePee | riderplus, if it manually mounts Ubuntu recognises it. | 12:28 |
| RangerBob | Hrm, don't use gnome 3 so can't help you there. I'd assume it would work like 2 did though unless you've disabled it via something like gconf? | 12:28 |
| nlux | does the ntfs-3g work well under linux? I want a partition that can be accessed by both ubuntu and windows and 0x0b is not detected.. | 12:28 |

| riderplus | RangerBob: and how can I re-enable it? | 12:28 |
| RangerBob | Maybe this would help?: http://askubuntu.com/questions/97311/gnome-nautilus-usb-automount-not-working | 12:29 |
| IcePee | RangerBob, can you set automount per device? | 12:30 |
| Ririshi | Hello. I made a bootable USB of Lubuntu and I tried to boot it, but it seems that my laptop (HP Mini 2133) doesn't recognize the bootable USB as a bootable one. It gives me this error: "Verwijder schijven of media Druk op een toets" which means "Remove disks or media Press a key" | 12:31 |
| dr_willis | Ririshi: how did you make the usb? | 12:31 |
| RangerBob | a quick googling looks like a lot of people have issues with usb automount and 3 | 12:32 |
| Ririshi | dr_willis: I have tried it using UNetBootin, LiLi, Universal USB Installer and Rufus. | 12:32 |
| Ririshi | RangerBob: usb automount and 3? what do you mean? | 12:32 |
| Boreeas_ | I have a file called xulrunner-bin in /opt/xulrunner. ls shows me the file, as does dir, and I can tabcomplete it. But when I try to execute it, I get "bash: /opt/xulrunner/xulrunner-bin: No such file or directory" | 12:32 |
| MonkeyDust | Boreeas_ xul is firefox related | 12:33 |
| srhb | Ririshi: From which system are you using unetbootin? | 12:33 |
| dr_willis | Ririshi: You could try a imageing tool i guess. but it sounds more like the pc is just not trying to boot from that flash at all. | 12:33 |
| Ririshi | srhb: I made it on Windows 7, using it for Lubuntu | 12:33 |
| Boreeas_ | MonkeyDust: But the file not being found is ubuntu-related | 12:33 |
| RangerBob | Sorry Ririshi, was talking to someone else | 12:33 |
| Ririshi | dr_willis: what is that, an imageing tool? Sorry I'm dumb :p | 12:33 |
| Ririshi | RangerBob: oh, sorry, my fault. | 12:34 |
| RangerBob | nah I should have been more specific | 12:34 |
| Ririshi | RangerBob: I didn't read the message above mine ;p | 12:34 |
| epzil0n | Ririshi: long shot maybe, but try usb 2.0 if you used a usb 3 port ;) i couldn't boot from my external optical drive due to that.. odd but that's what happen | 12:34 |
| Ririshi | epzil0n: this is a 4 yr old laptop xD | 12:35 |
| epzil0n | :D | 12:35 |
| Ririshi | epzil0n: maybe.. idk for sure xD but it's old lolz | 12:35 |
| epzil0n | Ririshi: never mind then, but some usb sticks just wont work, i know my really old ones doesn't | 12:36 |
| Ririshi | epzil0n: Ehm.. I'm using Kingston DataTraveler 2.0 4 GB.. | 12:36 |
| Ririshi | epzil0n: I'm not sure how old it is.. | 12:36 |
| epzil0n | Ririshi: how did you format it before using unetbootin in windows? | 12:37 |
| Ririshi | epzil0n: FAT32 i think | 12:37 |
| Ririshi | I used Rufus the last time btw | 12:38 |
| epzil0n | Ririshi: ok, that's what i always do first on windows so then that aint the issue | 12:38 |
| epzil0n | Ririshi: there's this win32 imagewriter too maybe worth trying? | 12:40 |
| Ririshi | soo.. | 12:40 |
| Ririshi | epzil0n: which one? | 12:40 |
| epzil0n | Ririshi: i can't use unetbootin for debian had to use that instead https://launchpad.net/win32-image-writer | 12:40 |
| epzil0n | Ririshi: think it was that one.. i'll check again | 12:41 |

| Ririshi | epzil0n: the problem is, my pc doesn't seem to even try to boot from the USB.. ): | 12:41 |
| cfhowlett | nlux: several options. transmission is the default torrent manager in xubuntu. | 12:42 |
| snadge | what does it mean if ubiquity crashes during install of 12.10? | 12:42 |
| nlux | cfhowlett: it doesn't seem to support torrents :< | 12:42 |

| nlux | cfhowlett: I mean.. magnets. | 12:42 |
| DJones | nlux: Transmission works fine with magnet links | 12:42 |
| Ririshi | epzil0n: there is no option for booting from usb in the bios ): I did set boot sequence. | 12:43 |
| nlux | oh my bad thanks DJones, cfhowlett | 12:43 |
| epzil0n | Ririshi: sometimes you need to hit f8 or maybe esc key it can be different from one computer to another | 12:43 |

| Ririshi | epzil0n: to choose the USB to boot off? That's F9 here, it says in the startup splash screen. | 12:44 |
| epzil0n | Ririshi: you can also try to update bios and that way get new features.. check the manufacturer support pages ;) | 12:44 |
| epzil0n | Ririshi: yeah, on my desktop it's f8 and then i have to choose boot from usb zip i think it says, odd but that's the way it is there | 12:45 |
| riderplus | should I format it in other format? | 12:45 |

| keon | Hi there I have Ubuntu 12.04 x64 and when I purge wine it still exists even after reboot. I'm trying to start over from scratch. | 12:47 |
| dr_willis | keon: still exists where? using apt to remove wine will NOT remove any windows installed apps that are in the users .wine directory | 12:48 |
| xgoo | silv3r_m00n avidemux | 12:48 |
| cfhowlett | keon: purging wine will not remove the program entry from the menu | 12:48 |
| keon | dr_willis, as in after reboot I can still run "wine" and it's still there | 12:48 |
| riderplus | I can only mount it automatically | 12:49 |
| dr_willis | the wine apps install to .wine normally and they have some icons in some other directory in the users home | 12:49 |

| riderplus | I tried all stuff | 12:49 |
| epzil0n | Ririshi: bummer | 12:50 |
| keon | dr_willis Something went wrong with wine so I'm removing wine. I know how to remove a directory containing the files. I've done it multiple times already. | 12:50 |

| keon | dr_willis the reason why I state something has gone wrong with wine itself that everytime I erase the prefix and start a fresh new one the programs that use to work do not work anymore. | 12:52 |

| SolarisBoy | albeit striped will provide no parity or redundancy just speed tobbegardner | 13:20 |
| disharmonic | Ririshi, puppy is a lightweight linux distro. From epzil0n post i assume they moved from a debian base to a ubuntu base. So it's a customized lightweight ubuntu derivative | 13:20 |
| trexyz | hi guys | 13:21 |
| Ririshi | epzil0n: is there a possibility that a custom bios will get me to bootin from an USB? | 13:21 |
| SolarisBoy | but you have about n-1 space for your disks on raid5 tobbegardner to explain the size in the ending to you and why it's not 6TB - some is used for parity/redundancy | 13:21 |
| bpietro | Dex7er: you must mark by hand this file as executable (chmod u+x <filename>) | 13:21 |
| epzil0n | Ririshi: http://macpup.org/ ;) | 13:21 |
| trexyz | i have a the following problem: when i want to connect to my machine the following error is thrown | 13:22 |
| trexyz | 500 OOPS: vsftpd: refusing to run with writable root inside chroot() | 13:22 |
| larst | hey | 13:22 |
| epzil0n | Ririshi: not sure, i wouldn't mess with that.. i sould wait until i got home and then use your external optical drive instead | 13:22 |
| b33nj | hi | 13:22 |
| testerr | monkeyDust how to check what causes my pc auto shutdown ? | 13:22 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: greetings | 13:22 |
| trexyz | is there a fix for this issue? | 13:22 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: hi again | 13:22 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: what's the issue? | 13:22 |
| MoL0ToV | ola | 13:23 |
| disharmonic | Ririshi, does you bios have any options for booting from USB? like USB-HDD etc | 13:23 |
| disharmonic | ? | 13:23 |
| trexyz | 500 OOPS: vsftpd: refusing to run with writable root inside chroot() | 13:23 |
| SolarisBoy | trexyz: fix the user directory permissions | 13:23 |
| Ririshi | disharmonic: nope. I can only select boot sequence.. | 13:23 |
| trexyz | can u be more precise | 13:23 |
| SolarisBoy | it can't be world writeable or fix your vsftpd config to allow_writeable_chroot = YES | 13:23 |
| SolarisBoy | trexyz: the users directory is writeable and the vsftpd settings probably default top not allow it | 13:24 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: i hear my laptop fans noise all the time | 13:24 |
| testerr | mayi know what is this ? CRON[11247]: (root) CMD ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly) | 13:25 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: Someone else will know about that than I do... | 13:25 |
| SolarisBoy | chmod a-w /home/user *or* allow_writable_chroot=YES | 13:25 |
| trexyz | ths SolarisBoy | 13:25 |
| trexyz | allow_writable_chroot=YES is not working for me | 13:25 |
| testerr | CRON[11247]: (root) CMD ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly) is this auto generated by ubuntu ? | 13:25 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: i think they are kinda broken | 13:25 |
| trexyz | i'm using EHCP on my machine | 13:25 |
| SolarisBoy | trexyz: try with writeable in that case | 13:25 |
| SolarisBoy | allow_writeable_chroot=YES | 13:25 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: how can i repair them? | 13:25 |
| KenetJervet | hi new to IRC | 13:26 |
| cigol | KenetJervet: hi | 13:26 |
| SolarisBoy | in the two versions of vspftpd they spell writeable diff lol.. so try allow_writeable_chroot=YES if allow_writable_chroot=YES didn't work however... | 13:27 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: if it's a hardware issue, buy and replace. | 13:27 |
| testerr | anyone know ? | 13:27 |
| cfhowlett | KenetJervet: greetings | 13:27 |
| SolarisBoy | you should probaly remove world writeable perms from some users dir anyway. | 13:27 |
| === bolosaur is now known as krang | ||
| KenetJervet | how can i list all channels? | 13:27 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: i don't know where i could buy a fan for my laptop | 13:27 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: but I'd recommend you try to lube the fans before replacing | 13:27 |
| trexyz | allow_writeable_chroot=YES or allow_writable_chroot=YES | 13:27 |
| === krang is now known as krang__ | ||
| trexyz | are not working | 13:27 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: research lubricating your fan for your specific make/model. Replacement parts? I'd start with Fry's or ebay. | 13:28 |
| KenetJervet | sorry i really don't know how to use this s*** | 13:28 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: i would better know how to repair them myself | 13:28 |
| SolarisBoy | heh | 13:28 |
| disharmonic | Ririshi, could be it doesn't like your flash drive then or it could be a BIOS bug. I had an old Atom board that came with a faulty bios and wouldn't boot from flash drives until you ubdated the BIOS | 13:29 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: i hear annoying noise from fans, very annoying | 13:29 |
| SolarisBoy | can you show me the config and the error and the permissions on the user directory on pastebin? thanks | 13:29 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: find the repair manual for your lappy. Might be on the owner's CDROM | 13:29 |
| tobbegardner | SolarisBoy: raid5 should (in theory) provide me with n-1 capacity... 3-1 = 2 disks in capacity, 3rd disk used as parity... | 13:29 |
| SolarisBoy | tobbegardner: correct. | 13:29 |

| emr | Hello, i'm trying open wan ip for mysql, so i edited my.cnf, setted bind-address and commented out skip-networking, however its not working mysql accepting connection from localhost | 13:30 |
| testerr | guys what was that ? | 13:30 |
| Ririshi | disharmonic: So.. How am I going to flash the bios if I don't have acces to USB booting? This netbook doesn't have an optical drive and I have no external one here.. | 13:30 |
| disharmonic | b33nj, could be it accumulated dust or one of the fans is dying | 13:30 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: that's not a problem. i have already disassembled it | 13:30 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: oh. Ok. | 13:30 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: i have taken out the fan | 13:30 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: there were a lot of dust | 13:31 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: http://www.ehow.com/how_12161763_lubricate-different-types-computer-fans.html | 13:31 |
| disharmonic | Ririshi, well if it turns out it's a bios issue that could get tricky. Mine was a desktop board so i connected an old floppy drive i had lying around | 13:32 |
| max999 | what to apt-get to have flash in firefox in 12.10? | 13:32 |

| b33nj | cfhowlett: the noise is not usual | 13:32 |
| SolarisBoy | trexyz: please pastebin it and not pm it =) | 13:32 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: so it's unusual? meaning? | 13:33 |
| testerr | is someone hacking my system ? | 13:33 |
| KenetJervet | just download the libflashplayer.so somewhere and place it in plugin folder | 13:33 |

| l057c0d3r | max999, get ubuntu restricted extras.. or lubuntu or kubuntu which ever flavor you are using.. but get the restricted extras | 13:33 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: thats a very normal message | 13:33 |
| max999 | l057c0d3r, how | 13:33 |
| l057c0d3r | max999 open the software center | 13:33 |
| l057c0d3r | type restricted extras | 13:33 |
| testerr | solarisboy , why there's a cron running when i didn't set any cron or running a server ? | 13:33 |
| Ririshi | disharmonic: dang it.. | 13:33 |
| l057c0d3r | and install the one for your flavor | 13:34 |
| max999 | l057c0d3r, thanks | 13:34 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: as if someone would turn chainsaw on | 13:34 |
| Ririshi | well i'm off.. | 13:34 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: there are many cron jobs on the server by default | 13:34 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: that's sounds like a replacement warning to me ... | 13:34 |
| disharmonic | If you can borrow a flsh drive from a friend try that | 13:34 |
| testerr | solarisboy , i don't install any server | 13:34 |
| disharmonic | too late | 13:34 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: ls -R /etc/cron.* and you will see | 13:34 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: your not paying attention | 13:34 |
| rollitup | i was having issues with booting after I hard rebooted today | 13:34 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: i tried to search for a replacement but had no result | 13:34 |
| rollitup | i wasn't able to get the Ubuntu and Win 7 boot list | 13:35 |
| NoorideeNAE | hello :) | 13:35 |
| SolarisBoy | server/desktop doesn't matter and on ubuntu are in general the same minus the default setup - they both have default crons setup | 13:35 |
| Dex7er | Hello | 13:35 |
| rollitup | so i booted using USB stick and then ran the boot-repair utility | 13:35 |
| KenetJervet | NoorideeNAE: hi | 13:35 |
| rollitup | and now am able to boot to Ubuntu but win 7 is not showin in the boot list | 13:35 |
| NoorideeNAE | KenetJervet: how is it going? | 13:35 |
| NoorideeNAE | Dex7er: whats up? | 13:35 |
| max999 | if i press alt+f2 and enter something, lets say terminal, it shows terminal in results but i cant click it or do anything to start it. what am i doing wrong? | 13:36 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: run sudo update-grub in a terminal ;) | 13:36 |
| Dex7er | NoorideeNAE nothing :D | 13:36 |
| KenetJervet | NoorideeNAE: new to IRC | 13:36 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: i am going to try to lubricate the fans | 13:36 |
| rollitup | i did it but still it does not show up | 13:36 |
| trexyz | regarding my vsftp issue is there a fix? | 13:36 |
| trexyz | :) | 13:36 |
| NoorideeNAE | KenetJervet: same here. good luck | 13:36 |
| NoorideeNAE | Dex7er: better than something bad :P | 13:36 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: ok, that should have found it | 13:36 |
| SolarisBoy | trexyz: have you posted the info to pastebin yet? | 13:36 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: where do you have grub mbr? | 13:37 |
| KenetJervet | NoorideeNAE: and poor english | 13:37 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: do what you can. | 13:37 |
| rollitup | epzil0n: is there a way to find that out ? | 13:37 |
| NoorideeNAE | KenetJervet: good luck everyone over here is kind. | 13:37 |
| Kaapa | hello there. Since the upgrade to 12.10 my battery live is much lower than used to be on 12.04 | 13:37 |
| Kaapa | anything I can do to look about this? | 13:37 |
| KenetJervet | is the `nickname:` some routine to follow? | 13:37 |
| disharmonic | There's no PPA for the official E17 release? | 13:37 |
| max999 | KenetJervet, it highlights the message for the recipient if you add his name. | 13:38 |
| Kaapa | I added to cmdline this options, that worked on the previous: acpi_osi=Linux pcie_aspm=force i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 i915.lvds_downclock=1 | 13:38 |
| NoorideeNAE | KenetJervet: sorta. | 13:38 |
| trexyz | SolarisBOy here is the link http://pastebin.com/exw54jXW | 13:38 |
| KenetJervet | is there any shortcut rather than type in his nickname? | 13:38 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: not sure about grub 2, but when you used boot repair utility did you just hit repair or did you do something else? | 13:38 |
| max999 | KenetJervet, type the starting letters and press tab | 13:38 |
| rollitup | i just ran repair | 13:38 |
| epzil0n | ok | 13:38 |
| NoorideeNAE | exactly! | 13:39 |
| KenetJervet | max999, NoorideeNAE , oh that helps! | 13:39 |
| NoorideeNAE | KenetJervet: you got it? | 13:39 |
| NoorideeNAE | ok | 13:39 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: probably mbr then | 13:39 |
| NoorideeNAE | lol | 13:39 |
| rollitup | also i had to change the sata cable of my HD coz the first two three attempts of boot-repair did not work | 13:39 |
| mashbro | I installed gnome-shell via software manager but I can't find it as an option after I log out and back in. | 13:39 |
| KenetJervet | thanks | 13:39 |
| testerr | what is this popularity-contest ? | 13:39 |
| max999 | KenetJervet, that works in terminals too. its really helpfull. | 13:39 |
| mashbro | testerr: I saw it while the installation was going on. | 13:39 |
| * NoorideeNAE Merry Christmas! | 13:39 | |
| epzil0n | rollitup: i just wonder because if you had windows bootloader managing your boot before then it's overwritten.. | 13:39 |
| max999 | KenetJervet, even works in windows ;-) | 13:39 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: which oil is best for lubricating a laptop fan? | 13:39 |
| Dessimat0r | the ubuntu installer crashed again | 13:39 |
| testerr | mashbro , what do you mean | 13:39 |
| max999 | cfhowlett, baby oil! jk. | 13:40 |
| KenetJervet | max999, yap i know that in terminals | 13:40 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: NOT babyoil! | 13:40 |
| KenetJervet | max999, this is smart | 13:40 |
| Kaapa | d | 13:40 |
| b33nj | haha | 13:40 |
| NoorideeNAE | who knows php? | 13:40 |
| NoorideeNAE | :D | 13:40 |
| Dessimat0r | i should probably do a memtest on this sucker | 13:40 |
| KenetJervet | max999, also how can i use the same nickname next time? | 13:40 |
| cigol | NooriedeNAE: me | 13:40 |
| NoorideeNAE | cigol: how did you learn it? | 13:40 |
| mashbro | KenetJervet: Register the nickname and use it. | 13:40 |
| max999 | KenetJervet, are you using a client like xchat? | 13:40 |
| NoorideeNAE | cigol: i wanna start from the 0 any hints? | 13:40 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: I've never done it, but I know I saw some specialty oil at Fry's. I'd have to say ask a computer builder in your area. | 13:40 |
| KenetJervet | yea using xchat | 13:41 |
| rollitup | no i had this dual booting since past 6 months | 13:41 |
| rollitup | and everything was working fine until today | 13:41 |
| max999 | KenetJervet, go to xchat > server list and enter your data there | 13:41 |
| mashbro | KenetJervet: Once you register the nick, you can use it every time as you wish. | 13:41 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: okay, thanks for the help | 13:41 |
| mashbro | You just need to identify | 13:41 |
| rollitup | i had first installed Win 7 and then Ubuntu thats what i remember following a help article | 13:41 |
| max999 | *network list | 13:41 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: good luck | 13:41 |
| SolarisBoy | trexyz: looking at https://security.appspot.com/vsftpd/vsftpd_conf.html i no longer see those writeable options - you should probably check that the user dirs under /var/www/vhosts/ are permissioned/owned properly | 13:41 |
| trexyz | oky, thx SolarisBoy | 13:41 |
| b33nj | cfhowlett: what irc client are you using? | 13:41 |
| cigol | NorideeNAE: I can recommend you any simple framework. It is good method to learn php and mysql together. | 13:41 |
| tobbegardner | SolarisBoy, did some googling and will not look into using parted instead of fdisk... fdisk seems to limit the size to 2.2TB for the disks | 13:41 |
| NoorideeNAE | guys any tips how to start coding php? | 13:41 |
| KenetJervet | max999, mashbro , how does the server know it's me not anyone else? | 13:41 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: xcat | 13:42 |
| tobbegardner | SolarisBoy, did some googling and will not look into using parted instead of fdisk... fdisk seems to limit the size to 2.2TB for the disks | 13:42 |
| cfhowlett | b33nj: xchat | 13:42 |
| mrout | more like BLOATBUNTU | 13:42 |
| NoorideeNAE | cigol: i just installed ubuntu yesterday. but dont know what to do right now | 13:42 |
| MonkeyDust | NoorideeNAE getting used to it | 13:42 |
| max999 | KenetJervet, someone wrote you about registering =) if you register the server knows its you | 13:42 |
| mashbro | Anyone else can also use your nick if you don't register it. Once you register it, you'll need a password (which only you will know) to login. | 13:42 |
| cigol | NoorideeNAE: Zend Framework is very good but very hard, therefore maybe the best fw for you, kohana, codeigniter, cakephp ? | 13:42 |
| max999 | KenetJervet, you need to provide a password then (but you can automate this step) | 13:42 |
| mrout | gnubuntu <-- does this exist? might be more respecting of your freedoms than ubuntu | 13:43 |
| mashbro | So if the password validates, then the server knows it's you. :) | 13:43 |
| KenetJervet | max999, so if i don't register, this nickname will be released right? | 13:43 |
| testerr | one last question is this auto generate by system or manually entered ? | 13:43 |
| testerr | CRON[11247]: (root) CMD ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly) | 13:43 |
| NoorideeNAE | cigol: how to install those fw? | 13:43 |
| MonkeyDust | mrout wrong channel | 13:43 |
| max999 | KenetJervet, yes, if you use /nick something now i could take KenetJervet | 13:43 |
| cigol | NoorideeNAE: do you know mysql ? | 13:43 |
| NoorideeNAE | cigol: not proffesional | 13:44 |
| KenetJervet | max999, thanks. but i found nowhere to enter my password in xchat | 13:44 |
| max999 | KenetJervet, you can do it manually and there are 2 ways to automate it | 13:44 |
| NoorideeNAE | cigol: less than good. | 13:44 |
| mrout | KenetJervet: do /msg ChanServ HELP REGISTER | 13:44 |
| rollitup | epzil0n: do u think this is resolvable > | 13:44 |
| cigol | NoorideeNAE: first install XAMPP package which have php, apache and mysql. I can recommend xampp http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html | 13:44 |
| max999 | KenetJervet, if you go xchat network list and edit the server we are on you can provide your password there to automate it (you need to register first though). or you create a file to be executed at start (someone recommended this once to me as the other way seems to not work on evry server.. not sure) | 13:45 |
| NoorideeNAE | okay lunching Vbox | 13:45 |
| cigol | NoorideeNAE: xampp works very well on ubuntu. | 13:45 |
| KenetJervet | max999, mrout : thanks a lot. :) | 13:46 |
| SolarisBoy | tobbegardner: the software raid is constucted of partitons and not disks? | 13:46 |
| mashbro | KenetJervet: Automating the login process is much better :) | 13:46 |
| testerr | so no one knows the answer ? | 13:46 |
| joey | whats the question | 13:46 |
| === joey is now known as Guest93828 | ||
| SolarisBoy | testerr: about cron? | 13:47 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: thats a system message it's normal it says the command cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly was run if you run the ls command i told you will see whats in that folder /etc/cron.hourly | 13:47 |
| KenetJervet | ? | 13:47 |
| nlux | what did I miss? | 13:47 |
| KenetJervet | sorry XD | 13:47 |
| NoorideeNAE | god! ubuntu is so slow when i use via VBox | 13:47 |
| max999 | if i press alt+f2 and enter something, lets say terminal, it shows terminal in results but i cant click it or do anything to start it. what am i doing wrong? | 13:48 |
| cigol | NoorideeNAE: and when you instal xampp server, then look at cakephp. it probably the simplest framework on the web, which allows you create website very fast (http://cakephp.org/) | 13:48 |
| testerr | soalrisboy , it's empty on hourly | 13:48 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: exactly | 13:48 |
| * NoorideeNAE Cigol is the real man! :P | 13:48 | |
| Guest93828 | what do emotions have to do with artificial intelligence | 13:48 |
| b14d3 | !ot | Guest93828 | 13:48 |
| ubottu | Guest93828: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 13:48 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: meaning every hour the cron system runs those cron jobs in that folder - if it's emtpy then nothing is being done | 13:48 |
| NoorideeNAE | download it via terminal right? | 13:48 |
| cigol | NoorideeNAE: in my opinion, it's the best way to start :) | 13:49 |
| testerr | solarisboy, that is the last info before my system crush | 13:49 |
| SolarisBoy | maybe look a little harder =) | 13:49 |
| testerr | i was away and the system down for no appearant reason | 13:49 |
| testerr | is there a log has more info and detail in ubuntu that i can see what causing the system down ? | 13:50 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: sure | 13:50 |
| max999 | testerr, /var/log/syslog or dmesg | 13:50 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: you can try lastlog too sometimes it tells you the condition that it was shutdown on | 13:50 |
| UltimaKR | when i try to install lubuntu on my old dimension the cds never work right and i get error messages....i was wondering if usb would be better? | 13:51 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: when looking in those logs - you should have an aim - try to single out a time frame and determine what it is you are looking for | 13:51 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: but did you have windows bootloader to manage your systems before? then you can repair it using windows installation cd and open up a command prompt and run /fixboot and /fixmbr if my memory serves me right | 13:51 |
| b14d3 | !lubuntu | UltimaKR | 13:52 |
| ubottu | UltimaKR: lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. | 13:52 |
| rollitup | yes i did | 13:52 |
| KenetJervet | hey guys, i'm back | 13:52 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: then install easybcd and add your ubuntu to windows bootloader ;) | 13:52 |
| rollitup | i am looking it i can make a Win 7 Installable USB since i had borrowed the CD rom for installing windows | 13:52 |
| testerr | solarisboy , lastlog can't be open | 13:52 |
| rollitup | what is easybcd ? | 13:52 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: right | 13:53 |
| cfhowlett | rollitup: yes, there's a windows tool for that. Ask in ##windows or search for it. | 13:53 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: use the command last to open that binary log | 13:53 |
| solofight | can somebody please open synapatic and check whats the latest version of Git available ? | 13:53 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: http://neosmart.net/EasyBCD/ | 13:53 |
| solofight | or where can i know that from ? any URL ? | 13:53 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: hence type "last" | 13:53 |
| fackah | blehhh | 13:53 |
| UltimaKR | solarisboy: when i try to install lubuntu on my old dimension, the cds never seem to work (i always get bugs and the screen goes black after i click "install lubuntu")...is that a problem with the disks or the pc? | 13:54 |
| KenetJervet | rollitup, is it something that helps make startup menu in windows? | 13:54 |
| SolarisBoy | try to find the time that it went down there - and then go into the logs looking around that time | 13:54 |
| KenetJervet | like grub? | 13:54 |
| rollitup | yeah prolly gonna check it | 13:54 |
| mashbro | UltimaKR: PC, I guess | 13:54 |
| SolarisBoy | UltimaKR: you can check the md5sum on a cd to ensure it's validity | 13:54 |
| speiros | Hello people. | 13:54 |
| solofight | guys ! ? | 13:54 |
| solofight | can somebody please open synapatic and check whats the latest version of Git available ? | 13:54 |
| mashbro | speiros: Hi | 13:54 |
| solofight | or where can i know that from ? any URL ? | 13:55 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: yes you should be able to make that win7 usb.. but it should be enough just to boot it up from any win7 media cd/usb and enter recovery mode hit r i think it was | 13:55 |
| b14d3 | !patience | solofight | 13:55 |
| ubottu | solofight: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 13:55 |
| rollitup | ok and should i then run those command from dos ? | 13:55 |
| speiros | Is this where I come for assistance with my ubuntu upgrade? | 13:55 |
| UltimaKR | solarisboy, mashbro: the cd was verified by md5sum; would loading by usb be more reliable? | 13:55 |
| SolarisBoy | UltimaKR: try it | 13:55 |
| UltimaKR | solarisboy: my dimension does not have the capability to boot from usb though, so do any of you have experience with the PLoP boot manager? | 13:56 |
| SolarisBoy | UltimaKR: i would assume if the usb does the same you can start looking at your hardware - i also think that on the live cd's there are actually boot options you can toggle as well | 13:56 |
| SolarisBoy | maybe you need a boot flag set or to boot failsafe or soemthing | 13:56 |
| cigol | ubottu: is a bot ? | 13:56 |
| ubottu | cigol: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 13:56 |
| SolarisBoy | UltimaKR: nope never heard of it lol | 13:56 |
| testerr | ahhhhhhhh can't find anything except say crash | 13:57 |
| cigol | ubottu: you are very intelligent bot ;) | 13:57 |
| ubottu | cigol: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 13:57 |
| speiros | I've upgraded from 10.04 to 12.04, and it seems I can't add programs, as some libperl file is missing, but won't upload either | 13:57 |
| SolarisBoy | plop - sounds really funny by the way | 13:57 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: in the last output? you see crash? | 13:57 |
| testerr | yes | 13:57 |
| UltimaKR | solarisboy: yeah it does...this is the link http://www.plop.at/en/plopkexec.html it's supposed to let me boot from usb despite the fact that my bios are not compatible | 13:58 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: good - now take the relative time of the crash if there and look under /var/log/* for events in that time | 13:58 |
| mashbro | solofight: Check the latest stable release here - http://git-scm.com/download | 13:58 |
| mashbro | As of now, 1.8.0.2 is the latest. | 13:58 |
| cigol | ubottu: does anyone see my post to ubottu except ubottu ? | 13:58 |
| ubottu | cigol: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 13:58 |
| speiros | N, I see it too, cigol | 13:58 |
| UltimaKR | ubottu: can i pet you? | 13:58 |
| ubottu | UltimaKR: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 13:58 |
| mashbro | cigol: everyone does | 13:59 |
| solofight | mashbro: yes 1.8.0.2 but is that available in synaptic for installation ? | 13:59 |
| mashbro | solofight: Not sure about that, sorry. | 13:59 |
| SolarisBoy | thats a good question i actually never checked what version ubuntu ships with | 13:59 |
| SolarisBoy | solofight: you can use apt-cache policy or show to query the repos for whats available btw - and compare it to whats on the git-scm site | 14:00 |
| solofight | mashbro: no problem - thanks for coming forward to help | 14:00 |
| mashbro | solofight: No worries | 14:00 |
| solofight | SolarisBoy: if i have a ubuntu box with me right now - i wouldn't ask the question here :( | 14:00 |
| tobbegardner | SolarisBoy: Yes, can it be of disks as in /dev/sda and not from partition on the disk /dev/sda1 ?? | 14:00 |
| SolarisBoy | haha sorry | 14:00 |
| solofight | i am stuck with this windows and thought il ask here | 14:01 |
| SolarisBoy | tobbegardner: it can be both | 14:01 |
| SolarisBoy | well one or the other that is.. but i eblieve if partitions they should be the same size | 14:01 |
| SolarisBoy | solofight: this is whats in the ubuntu repo on LTS 12.04 1:1.7.9.5-1 0 | 14:01 |
| solofight | SolarisBoy: thank you very much | 14:02 |
| SolarisBoy | yw | 14:02 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: first boot your computer from say win7 cd and go through language, keyboard and time then hit repair this computer, then choose command prompt or what it says, then it should be enough with just /fixboot | 14:03 |
| testerr | thanks solarisboy | 14:03 |
| SolarisBoy | testerr: yw | 14:03 |
| SierraAR | Is it possible to run a wine application, i.e. notepad++, as 'root' so that it has access to edit files that would need sudo/root access? | 14:04 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: there are other options too like using the bootrec.exe but i don't think you have to do that.. | 14:04 |
| rollitup | ok | 14:04 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: usually when i done this i used /fixboot and also /fixmbr maybe it's not needed but that's what i done | 14:05 |
| speiros | Also, when I upgraded, I had three boxes open in unknown font (they displayed as boxes), so I just closed them without pressing what appeared to be the ok buttons or cancel. What would they have been, and would this have had anything to do with my not being able to upgrade new stuff? | 14:06 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: then i always install say ubuntu bootloader to the ubunut root partition and then boot windows open easybcd and just add a new entry with grub 2 as ubuntu nowadays uses that and then give it a name and just save it.. done ;) | 14:06 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: got a triple boot setup like that now and it always works, you can ofc have grub do that but if you for some reason remove ubuntu you are screwed and need to fix windows bootloader again, that's why i always only use windows bootloader | 14:08 |
| TheJackaL | hi there | 14:09 |
| rollitup | epzilon is there a way to fix this through Ubuntu itself ? | 14:09 |

| shomon | how do I convert it? | 14:09 |
| rollitup | coz at the moment i don't have a CD ROM | 14:10 |

| rollitup | but i have the win 7 iso which i am trying to make to a bootable USB using Universal USB installer | 14:10 |
| speiros | Not GIMP? | 14:10 |
| syncsys | shomon, which one is best. and what about komposer? | 14:10 |
| shomon | but there's nothing that'll do all that really.. You just use an editor with some nice shortcuts and test bits... yeah gimp too... | 14:11 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: but you did already try the boot repair utility and as i understand it it didn't work? | 14:11 |
| shomon | never used much "k" stuff syncsys | 14:11 |
| shomon | so anyone know if there's a script I can pipe a list of files into and generate a pls? | 14:11 |
| rollitup | boot repair utility did work thats how i was able to atleast booting back in Ubuntu | 14:11 |

| jiwan | i look in many website that terms | 14:14 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: the boot repair disk image at least got an option to restore mbr to previous state.. so i have mangage to use that to restore my mbr and get windows back that way | 14:14 |
| b14d3 | KenetJervet: It's basically so people don't sit there and spam their question. | 14:14 |
| shomon | what does dpkg do you mean? It installs individual .deb packages | 14:14 |
| SolarisBoy | jiwan: dpkg is a utility for managing debian packages | 14:14 |
| rollitup | do u mean the advanced options in boot-repair ? | 14:15 |
| KenetJervet | b14d3, XD | 14:15 |
| rollitup | i did not touch that | 14:15 |
| jiwan | can anyone tell me what is dpkg in linux? | 14:15 |
| SolarisBoy | i did | 14:15 |
| KenetJervet | jiwan, are you japanese or chinese? | 14:15 |

| === erry_ is now known as erry | ||
| SolarisBoy | KenetJervet: ubuntu server works well if you just need a simple server - ofcourse there are other options - not many i would put in production... | 14:18 |
| KenetJervet | SolarisBoy, i just tried. chinese network sucks so it never finishes downloading all updates and stuff | 14:18 |
| SolarisBoy | centos is nice because a lot of the stuff you find in the enterprise is easily (most times) installed there being it's basically redhat | 14:19 |
| nlux | how can I fix this guys? apps are not oppened in a window in gnome classic? | 14:19 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: i have only used this one http://sourceforge.net/p/boot-repair-cd/home/Home/ and then used unetbootin to create a bootable usb then depending of if i wanted to install grub to ubuntu root partition i used advanced options, but i think it's enough to just hit repair and then it tries to repair your mbr and you need to have a network connection to make it work | 14:19 |
| can-o-worms | can someone tell me, does 12.10 have gdm installed? I can't find any config files for it, or xdm. | 14:19 |

| angela_1 | speiros: you can try "sudo apt-get upgrade" | 14:19 |
| SolarisBoy | KenetJervet: sorry to hear that | 14:19 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: i don't know if it works the same way in ubuntu.. did you boot from a live usb or what? | 14:20 |
| speiros | angela_1 I'll give it a go, and thanks for that, but I have a feeling I typed that. I'll let you know. | 14:20 |
| KenetJervet | SolarisBoy, XD have got used to it | 14:20 |

| KenetJervet | SolarisBoy, i'm booting centos inside virtualbox and it's completely stuck | 14:21 |

| SolarisBoy | KenetJervet: so dump that as well dump *dbs* and backup the whole /var/lib/mysql or wherever it's root is and you should be good you can use either or to restore | 14:29 |

| b14d3 | b33nj: It may give you some ideas and things to try. I admit I don't really know a lot about your problem | 14:35 |
| tapas | jockey-text -l tells me there's a driver kmod:nvidia_current | 14:35 |
| b33nj | b14d3: okay | 14:35 |
| kali_ | hi | 14:35 |
| tapas | but if i try to enable it with jockey-text -e kmod:nvidia_current it tells me that it failed.. | 14:35 |
| b33nj | b14d3: the problem is that nothing shows up | 14:35 |
| kali_ | could anyone help me with poor video playback i am facing | 14:35 |
| tapas | and the jockey.log just tells me that the drivers are not existing. | 14:35 |
| b14d3 | b33nj: That's a very vauge statement. Please clarify | 14:36 |
| joey_ | hey does anyone know a way to have the xscreensavers app start when ubuntu starts | 14:36 |
| tapas | ah dammit, i'll just go into gnome for a second | 14:36 |
| b33nj | b14d3: laptop doesn't react to usb stick | 14:36 |
| angela_1 | speiros: ya just see. :) | 14:37 |
| kali_ | any website for video codecs.? | 14:37 |
| nlux_ | it seems to work with no effects SolarisBoy, any ideas on this? | 14:37 |
| KenetJervet | kali_, i probably am not able to help, but am interested in your problem | 14:37 |
| speiros | angela_1 Yeah, I'll have to try again. I'm still stuck eh. | 14:37 |
| b33nj | b14d3: the primary boot device is set to removable drive | 14:37 |
| b14d3 | b33nj: Getting closer. Does it not show anything when you are IN Windows, or when you're trying to boot from it? | 14:37 |
| b33nj | b14d3: the usb stick is ok, i have just installed ubuntu on another computer | 14:38 |
| speiros | angela_1 Thanks though, as I appreciate it. | 14:38 |
| b33nj | b14d3: yes, the machine sees it | 14:38 |
| b14d3 | b33nj: At which point | 14:38 |
| joey_ | b33 you have to go to advanced startup in windows 8 in the settings or somthing like that or else find the boot menu button or else you just have a bad usb stick copy | 14:38 |
| nlux_ | http://i.imgur.com/AobgR.png welp | 14:39 |
| b33nj | the usb stick is ok | 14:39 |
| joey_ | try the back usb ports | 14:39 |
| joey_ | or are you on a laptop | 14:39 |
| b33nj | it's a laptop | 14:40 |
| b14d3 | He's on a laptop | 14:40 |
| joey_ | whats your laptop model | 14:40 |
| b33nj | joey_: asus eee pc | 14:41 |
| joey_ | netbook | 14:41 |
| b33nj | joey_: yeah | 14:41 |
| joey_ | hold on ill look online real quick for boot menu button | 14:41 |
| angela_1 | speiros: your welcome :) | 14:41 |
| b33nj | b14d3 | 14:42 |
| b14d3 | Yes? | 14:42 |
| speiros | angela_1 Come to think of it, does it matter that my installation is on a laptop? | 14:42 |
| syncsys | which opensource software is similer to adobe dreamweaver in feature set ? | 14:42 |
| rollitup | epzil0n: now that i ran the boot repair tool and choose Restore MBR in the advanced options i go straight in Win 7 without the option to boot into Ubuntu | 14:42 |
| b33nj | b14d3: so what next | 14:42 |
| syncsys | I should say similer and competes it | 14:42 |
| rollitup | maybe now i should run boot-repair again and do the default boot repair what say ? | 14:43 |
| joey_ | ok well disable boot booster in the bios | 14:43 |
| b14d3 | b33nj: If I help you while joey_ is looking something up, we may give conflicting information, or work against each other. I was waiting for his next step | 14:43 |
| joey_ | hit f2 at startup to get into the bios | 14:43 |
| speiros | syncsys I used GIMP a few years ago, and could do most stuff (sufficient for my level of experience, which isn't high) that I could do with dreamweaver and fireworks, with even a little photoshop | 14:43 |
| angela_1 | speiros: No . That should not matter. | 14:43 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: well that's why i always make a boot repair disk, but since i'm not at home i don't have it now, but that has saved me countless of times, either reinstalled grub to some linux partition or restored my mbr when it got corrupted due to that i installed some linux distro and the mbr gor overwritten | 14:43 |
| speiros | angela_1 Cool. Thanks again. | 14:44 |
| joey_ | then after you disable that save the settings then hit esc key at startup for boot menu | 14:44 |
| KenetJervet | centos 6.3 carries firefox 10.0.5 | 14:44 |
| KenetJervet | and what the fuck is Firefox ESR? | 14:44 |
| syncsys | speiros, ok. what choices do i have as alternatives to dw and how do you rate them? | 14:44 |
| syncsys | Spec, gimp as being on 1? | 14:44 |

| b33nj | joey_: i found quiet boot in bios | 14:45 |
| speiros | syncsys I'm not very experienced with it mate, and for two out of three websites that I used, I ended up using a Joomla! template, as they were so well organised. | 14:45 |
| syncsys | speiros, ^ | 14:45 |
| joey_ | hmm online it said boot booster | 14:45 |
| syncsys | speiros, ok. what do you think of bluefish + inkscape or maybe anjuta? | 14:45 |
| speiros | syncsys I haven't used any other packages, but GIMP was great for me. I haven't tried bluefish or inkscape, nor anjuta. | 14:46 |
| joey_ | try it just put it back if it dont work | 14:46 |
| b33nj | joey_: i have disabled quiet boot | 14:46 |
| syncsys | speiros, thanks | 14:46 |
| joey_ | maybe fast boot | 14:46 |
| b33nj | joey_: now laptop starts another way | 14:47 |
| joey_ | now when it restarts hit esc a bunch of times | 14:47 |
| sideeffect | so i got a little problem. i installed kubuntu on a 5 year old netbook. but grub somehow doesnt work. i made that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lod8sRb_6I . but when I starting the netbook, it doesnt want to boot. it comes just: | 14:47 |
| riderplus | if I use pmount /dev/sdc1 it mounts the usb. how to make pmount act automatically when the usb is inserted? | 14:47 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: sry i missed what you said before.. i keep loosing my network connection, on 3g now :/ i would first restore mbr and boot windows and use easybcd | 14:47 |
| sideeffect | error: no such partition | 14:47 |
| speiros | syncsys What joey says is good though, although I don't think he meant it for you. If they don't conflict, you could download them all, and see which one works. I did that before my upgrade with video editing software. | 14:47 |
| b33nj | joey_: okay, ubuntu there | 14:47 |
| sideeffect | grub rescue> | 14:47 |
| b33nj | joey_: thanks for help | 14:47 |
| joey_ | ok cool | 14:47 |
| rollitup | can easybcd be used without a cd rom ? | 14:47 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: yes | 14:47 |
| speiros | syncsys Then the ones that are no good can be removed. | 14:48 |
| rollitup | ok | 14:48 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: download it from here, just make up some username and email and then download it http://neosmart.net/Download/Register/1 | 14:49 |

| rollitup | ok | 14:49 |
| sandeep | how to correct it | 14:50 |
| Biomechd | hey guys, i've been running 12.10 for a while now and i haven't been able to use any of the function keys (alt, any of the f# keys' secondary functions) and i haven't been able to update or any of that. i tried running software sources from the terminal so i could get the problem in text, and this is it. http://www.pasteall.org/38329 | 14:50 |
| yeats | sandeep: can you pastebin the command you're trying and the full output? | 14:50 |
| Biomechd | by the way, this has been for a few weeks. | 14:51 |
| tupu | Hi, all! In Lubuntu, where can I set the default keyboard input settings? It's defaulting on US keyboard every time I restart computer, but I have a Finnish keyboard. I can change it with LXkeymap manually but it's annoying to do every time. | 14:51 |
| b33nj | joey_: i saw ubuntu logo, but then it disappeared and now i see only black screen | 14:51 |
| yeats | Biomechd: what locale are you using? | 14:51 |
| === tupu is now known as osmobot | ||
| sandeep | yeats:./configure >>Configuring for a x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu host. >>*** Cannot currently configure in source tree. | 14:52 |
| Biomechd | yeats, what do you mean? | 14:52 |
| yeats | Biomechd: in your paste, it says "Cannot set locale: unsupported locale setting" | 14:52 |
| joey_ | hmmm | 14:52 |
| b14d3 | !lubuntu | tupu | 14:52 |
| ubottu | tupu: lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. | 14:52 |
| Biomechd | yeats, how would i find out what locale i have? | 14:52 |
| yeats | sandeep: what are you trying to install and why aren't you installing from the Ubuntu repos? | 14:53 |
| sandeep | i am installing a gcj library | 14:53 |
| === themill_ is now known as themill | ||
| sandeep | yeats:i couldnt find it | 14:53 |

| sandeep | yeats: libgcj-2.95.1 | 14:54 |
| riderplus | can anyone please tell me why pmount works but it doesn't act automatically? | 14:54 |

| b33nj | joey_: what? | 14:56 |
| Biomechd | yeats, http://www.pasteall.org/38330 | 14:56 |

| joey_ | do you have anything pluged into your laptop | 14:57 |
| rollitup | i hit Edit Boot menu and i can see only the Windows 7 entry | 14:57 |
| speiros | Okay all. Thanks for your input and help. Thanks once again angela_1, and enjoy your holiday period. | 14:57 |
| joey_ | printer or any thing then unplug them | 14:57 |
| sandeep | i get an error on "-non_shared -lgcj -Wl" | 14:57 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: choose Linux/BSD choose grub2 and give the entry a name Ubuntu 12.10 or something | 14:57 |
| b33nj | joey_: no, only usb stick | 14:57 |
| b33nj | joey_: problem solved | 14:58 |
| rollitup | i don't see an entry for Ubuntu 12.04 | 14:58 |
| yeats | sandeep: what is your ultimate goal - to install that specific version of libgcj or something else? | 14:58 |
| joey_ | what was it | 14:58 |
| rollitup | only Winodws 7 in the list | 14:58 |
| b33nj | joey_ my screen was just turned off | 14:58 |
| b33nj | joey_: zero brightness | 14:58 |
| joey_ | lol | 14:58 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: then just hit save or add and it should tell you that it succeded | 14:58 |
| b33nj | lol | 14:58 |
| angela_1 | speiros: :) | 14:58 |
| joey_ | yeah i had it go black before on a pc cuz the video card | 14:58 |
| joey_ | but ok | 14:59 |
| sandeep | yeats : for this compilation i need the library for -lgcj thats i need to install the library | 14:59 |
| joey_ | you have windows 8 right | 14:59 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: yeah but choose the tab where it says Linux/BSD | 14:59 |
| joey_ | on the ee pc | 14:59 |
| b33nj | joey_: old beta test of windows 8 | 14:59 |
| joey_ | make sure you do install alongside windows | 14:59 |
| b33nj | joey_: not updated | 14:59 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: under add startpost/start menu or something i got it in my native language ;) | 14:59 |
| rollitup | ok | 15:00 |
| joey_ | oh i just installed ubuntu with the real windows 8 | 15:00 |
| yeats | Biomechd: see this: http://askubuntu.com/a/227513 and substitute 'en_US.UTF-8' for 'fi_FI.UTF-8' (obviously) | 15:00 |
| b33nj | joey_: what happened? | 15:00 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: the tabs are windows/linux/bsd/mac and neogrub.. | 15:00 |
| yeats | sandeep: and what are you compiling? | 15:00 |
| joey_ | anyways it will make a file on the c drive instead of makeing a new partition | 15:01 |
| sandeep | yeats: as you might now gcj is a java to exe compiler | 15:01 |
| rollitup | no there is nothing of what you are describing | 15:01 |
| b33nj | stupid microsoft | 15:01 |
| joey_ | and you can uninstall it with add remove programs | 15:01 |
| sandeep | all i want is to make an static exe from java | 15:01 |
| Biomechd | yeats, is it finnish in the system or what? i've always used english (since i'm american and speak english) | 15:01 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: then under linux/bsd tab you choose grub2 in the first dropdown menu nad then give it a name and let it be find and read.. then hit save or add.. done | 15:01 |
| rollitup | i only see View Settings, Edit Boot Menu, Add New Entry, Advanced Settings, BCD Backup/ Reair / BCD Deployment . Useful Utilities | 15:02 |
| yeats | Biomechd: no - the example from that "ask ubuntu" link was Finnish | 15:02 |
| Biomechd | oh, okay. | 15:02 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: add new entry ;) | 15:02 |
| rollitup | ok | 15:02 |
| Biomechd | oh, now i see what you meant. | 15:02 |
| yeats | Biomechd: you're using 'en-US.UTF-8' | 15:02 |
| rollitup | ok epzil0n | 15:02 |
| rollitup | found it | 15:02 |
| rollitup | would the Drive : Automatically locate and load option be fine ? | 15:03 |
| Peyam | Im trying to install Xubuntu by USB stick. And it wont boot up. it just show a blinking line. and no menu to choose. What do I do? Ive tried to make the usb stick many times.. and Im pretty disappointed | 15:03 |
| b33nj | joey_ | 15:04 |
| joey_ | yeah | 15:04 |
| yeats | sandeep: if I were you I would try to make one of the Ubuntu-packaged GCJ versions work - either that or look into using 'sudo apt-get build-dep <package>' to automatically install the build dependenices | 15:04 |
| Biomechd | yeats, now one last thing, how do i change my keyboard to use something other than alt-lmb&drag to move windows? i use blender and it uses the alt key in some shortcuts. | 15:05 |
| yeats | Biomechd: sorry, I don't know, but if you ask the full channel, maybe someone does | 15:05 |
| rollitup | epzil0n: did u get my last message | 15:05 |
| b33nj | joey_: when i open flash player settings | 15:05 |
| rollitup | do i set the Drive : Automatically locate and load | 15:05 |
| b33nj | joey_: it doesn't react on mouse clicks | 15:05 |
| uncledeath | my ubuntu server installer takes forever at "configuring mdadm". CPU almost idle, system load very high and everything unresponsive. Any ideas? | 15:05 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: yeah let it automatically find it | 15:06 |
| joey_ | i know it did that to me before too | 15:06 |
| b33nj | joey_: how did you fix that? | 15:06 |
| rollitup | now i hope i can reboot ? | 15:06 |
| joey_ | they dont work out all the bugs | 15:06 |
| joey_ | um hold on | 15:06 |

| sandeep | is the error what i get when i use sudo apt-get build-dep <file> | 15:07 |
| Peyam | anyone? | 15:07 |
| joey_ | yeah it does that to me too just tryed it | 15:07 |
| yeats | sandeep: try 'sudo apt-get clean', then 'sudo apt-get update', then try againn | 15:07 |
| joey_ | they just dont care about ubuntu that much adobe i guess so they leave it all buggy | 15:08 |
| rollitup | epzil0n: it worked but now i get the first screen which shows the new boot menu | 15:08 |
| b33nj | joey_: while installing ubuntu i get this error message: ubi-console-setup failed with exit code 10 | 15:08 |

| === jennie is now known as Guest4284 | ||
| joey_ | hmm | 15:09 |
| Biomechd | does anyone know how to configure ubuntu to use a key other than alt to move windows? i use blender a lot and alt-lmb is something that i kinda need and can't have it trying to move the window around. | 15:09 |
| joey_ | try doing the try ubuntu option then run the installer from there | 15:09 |
| rollitup | thanks a ton epzil0n | 15:09 |
| uncledeath | Biomechd: I had similar problem with Eagle PCB tool, i remember finding it somewhere in shortcuts. Installing compiz and rebinding this key to something in compiz and freeing it afterwards helped too but it was way back in 2010 versions (with gnome) | 15:10 |

| joey_ | im not that good with ubuntu but i can try | 15:12 |
| rollitup | but anywayz this solves my situation | 15:12 |
| uncledeath | KnetJervet: what do you mean? Does it regard my issue? | 15:12 |
| rollitup | and i am thankful for your patience | 15:13 |

| smj | http://code.google.com/p/ubuntucd/ found it | 15:14 |
| joey_ | oh wait sorry | 15:14 |
| Biomechd | yeats, the problem hasn't been fixed yet, unfortunately. i still can't get into software sources and updating still doesn't work. here's the link. http://www.pasteall.org/38331 | 15:14 |
| joey_ | that software center uses to install the stuff in it | 15:15 |
| joey_ | it has the programs in it and files and stuff | 15:16 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: np, had nothing better to do and just glad i could help out ;) | 15:16 |
| joey_ | i think | 15:16 |
| jiwan | isn't it possible to install directly like windows in linux? | 15:16 |
| epzil0n | rollitup: and i got the same odd options, but main thing is that it works so i can live with it :D | 15:16 |
| joey_ | yeah it is | 15:17 |
| rollitup | no this is a great walkthrough | 15:17 |
| b33nj | joey_: i just pressed try again and the error didn't show up agian | 15:17 |
| jiwan | but how? | 15:17 |
| joey_ | oh ok | 15:17 |
| joey_ | well they would have to write a program thats an installer program like windows ones are | 15:18 |
| jiwan | bcz i am installing directly through the terminal | 15:18 |
| Biomechd | yeats, did you see the error i posted? | 15:19 |
| yeats | Biomechd: yes - did you do the 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales' part of the link I shared before? | 15:19 |
| joey_ | thats cool i dont know terminal stuff | 15:19 |
| Biomechd | yeats, no, i didn't see that. i'll try it quick | 15:19 |
| jiwan | you mean, we have to make a installer | 15:20 |
| joey_ | i just came on here cus i had a question about xscreensavers | 15:20 |
| yeats | Biomechd: that may do it | 15:20 |

| freshstart | patie: add the previous script in the startup application | 18:10 |
| Boreeas_ | What is causing this? | 18:10 |
| patie | freshstart: what previous | 18:10 |
| R4ven | Hello just curious about one thing. | 18:10 |
| bakuryuthemole | why is ubuntu so boss. I use a Mac, and ubuntu has so many little details I wish OS X had. Manually deleting files from the trash can never felt so good | 18:11 |
| freshstart | patie: the layout in arandr that you saved before is a script | 18:11 |
| patie | ahhh | 18:11 |
| patie | understand now :) | 18:11 |
| rumpel | Boreeas, is it executable? What kind of executable exactly? ("file /usr/bin/xulrunner/xulrunner-bin") | 18:11 |
| R4ven | as a thumb rule, im wondering about a mail server, IE Postfix. is it always STARTTLS that is what is used to authenticate the user against postfix | 18:11 |
| patie | ok thank you very much | 18:11 |
| LTF | is there an alternative for autologin without mintty? (textmode) | 18:11 |
| R4ven | and courier imap is SSL ? or is it technically better to run both IMAP courier and Postfix with SSL ? | 18:11 |
| freshstart | patie: add the script in the startup application | 18:11 |
| Boreeas_ | rumpel: "/usr/bin/xulrunner/xulrunner-bin: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.9, stripped" | 18:12 |
| Boreeas_ | Oh, but I'm using 64bit ubuntu 12.10, could that cause problems? | 18:12 |
| mario_ | can anyone invite me to #php channel ? | 18:12 |
| freshstart | patie: do you know how to do that? | 18:12 |
| bakuryuthemole | i think ubuntu 12.10 has some problems, and if you're on 64 bit i think even more. | 18:13 |
| blitz | how do I force a PPA that only has precise support to work on quantal | 18:13 |

| theadmin | Hello. I'd like to know if there's any alternative to the Ubuntu Customization Kit (currently broken on Precise, the terminal won't open for further customization making it pretty useless) or Remastersys | 18:30 |
| theadmin | Basically speaking, something to build a customized Ubuntu ISO, either from an existing system or somehow else | 18:33 |
| adamx | good afternoon #ubuntu | 18:33 |
| mario_ | where i can download legaly music for gmusicbrowser | 18:33 |
| theadmin | mario_: Uh, that's just a media player. It will play any music you download from about anywhere. Just need a legal website. | 18:34 |
| mario_ | theadmin: i know, but who's legal website ? | 18:34 |
| DereC | hi, anybody could help me with setting up variable in script | 18:35 |
| adamx | itunes, amazon | 18:35 |
| adamx | those are legal sites | 18:35 |
| DereC | need to setup variable which contains quotes | 18:35 |
| theadmin | mario_: Just find any. There are plenty... Hm... Jango has some free music, for instance | 18:35 |
| theadmin | DereC: So... export var='some"thing"' | 18:35 |
| theadmin | DereC: Just use different kind of quotes -- enclosing text in single quotes allows you to use double quotes inside it, or vice versa | 18:35 |
| DereC | searchterm='"stype": 2,' | 18:36 |
| theadmin | DereC: Or something like this: export var="some\"thing\"" | 18:36 |
| theadmin | DereC: Yeah that looks right to me | 18:36 |
| DereC | stype must be in qutes | 18:36 |
| DereC | ok, will try | 18:36 |

| theadmin | DeWabbit: Dunno about any such error, it installs just fine. Precise, 64-bit. | 18:38 |
| DeWabbit | arr ok... bahh ill wait for them to fix for all... | 18:39 |
| DereC | theadmin, looks not working for me | 18:39 |
| DereC | theadmin, here is full script http://paste.ubuntu.com/1467798/ | 18:39 |
| theadmin | DereC: Huh? Show me the script, I'll see what the problem is | 18:39 |
| DereC | theadmin, just few lines | 18:40 |
| theadmin | DereC: Well, the variable *does* get set properly: http://ideone.com/qBEnKI | 18:41 |
| llutz | DereC: for file in $(grep -l -R "$searchterm" ... | 18:42 |
| DereC | but in search all the files has been changed, doesnt matter if file contains that string | 18:42 |
| llutz | DereC: you're passing more than one searchterm to grep, so it needs to be in quotes | 18:42 |
| DereC | will try again | 18:42 |
| LTF | any way to autologin in textmode without mintty? | 18:43 |

| Flannel | voxcroix: What makes you think it's missing 11GB? | 19:14 |
| voxcroix | Flannel: i have only single hdd 160gb. i have try both os (ubuntu and win 7). in ubuntu its show up 160gb before format install. but in win7 its only show up 149gb | 19:17 |
| voxcroix | can i fix it? | 19:17 |
| eternal | Both sizes are correct and are the same. | 19:18 |
| voxcroix | are you sure.. the win7 is correct | 19:18 |
| eternal | HD makers lie :-P | 19:18 |
| eternal | Yes I'm sure | 19:18 |
| voxcroix | but ubuntu can show me 160gb why the win7 cant | 19:19 |
| Flannel | voxcroix: That's just the OSes reporting sizes differently. One is based on base-2, and the other base-10. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabyte#Consumer_confusion | 19:19 |
| b33nj | hi | 19:20 |
| eternal | Linux is showing you the full capacity size the same math as the HD makers, windows is using different math. The reason is out of the scope of here, Google gigabyte for the wiki articled | 19:20 |
| eternal | Article* | 19:20 |
| Flannel | voxcroix: They're both the same size, it's just like saying something weighs 10 pounds, and it also weighs 4.5kg. | 19:20 |
| voxcroix | ok.. i understand. it just like the RAM showing on linux system. is less the windows | 19:21 |
| voxcroix | thx | 19:21 |
| Flannel | well, RAM should be the same on both, but yes. | 19:21 |
| voxcroix | Flannel: do i need a /swap for my ubuntu 64bit and backtrack 64bit? | 19:23 |
| voxcroix | i have 8gb ram on my sustem | 19:23 |
| dowdyph0 | voxcroix: how much ram do you have | 19:23 |
| Flannel | voxcroix: You can use the same swap for both, provided you don't intend to hibernate one and then reboot to the other. | 19:23 |
| Malimbar | hmm... I can't read some content of an external HD backup of a mac | 19:24 |
| voxcroix | Flannel: 8gb /swap? | 19:24 |
| dowdyph0 | voxcroix: if you use no swap set vm.swappiness=0 | 19:24 |
| theadmin | Malimbar: HFS doesn't have great support in Linux... But, uh, "some" sounds suspicious. Some files? Parts of files? | 19:25 |
| Flannel | voxcroix: That depends on your RAM and what you plan on doing with your system. | 19:25 |
| dowdyph0 | voxcroix: use the same swap amount as ram, because sometimes ram dump to hard disk is needed | 19:25 |
| voxcroix | dowdyph0: okok | 19:25 |
| Malimbar | theadmin, it seems I can read the folder names, a .dat file, a .properties file, and the contents of one of the self-made folders | 19:26 |
| solitude88 | anyone know of a good broken link checker for ubuntu? | 19:26 |
| dowdyph0 | solitude88: what? | 19:26 |
| detrimental | i just installed ubuntu server, ssh. set up password and everything but when i try to connect via laptop on the same network it asked for my password but says the password is invalid. | 19:26 |
| detrimental | can anyone hlep | 19:26 |
| dowdyph0 | solitude88: syslink? | 19:27 |
| solitude88 | dowdyph0 I had a broken link checker on ubuntu before but now I cant fine it | 19:27 |
| Malimbar | theadmin, but all the music, movies, documents, etc are all folders that I have no permission to look at | 19:27 |
| solitude88 | sweet dowdyph0 thank you | 19:27 |
| voxcroix | do i need /boot for running win7 ubuntu backtrack? | 19:27 |
| theadmin | Malimbar: Permission, eh... What exactly is the backup? More specifically, what kind of a filesystem is it on? | 19:27 |
| Malimbar | theadmin, pretty sure it's HFS+, it was done by the apple store when the laptop died | 19:28 |
| dowdyph0 | solitude88: 1sec | 19:28 |
| Malimbar | we have the laptop back now with no data lost, but I was trying to transfer it over for next time it dies | 19:28 |
| solitude88 | ok | 19:28 |
| detrimental | well it dosnt say invalid pw it says premission denieds | 19:29 |
| detrimental | anyone? | 19:29 |
| voxcroix | Flannel: /boot is needed? | 19:30 |
| Flannel | voxcroix: Not necessarily on a separate partition. Depends on what your use-case is. If you don't know, I wouldn't put it on a separate partition. | 19:31 |
| Hilikus | a couple of years ago i read an article that said that xubuntu wasn't really lighter than regular ubuntu. is that the case today? i'm using 12.04 and i have an ubuntu guest in virtualbox that i'm trying to lighten by changing the desktop manager | 19:31 |
| dowdyph0 | solitude88: I'got a little script if you want | 19:32 |
| Flannel | Hilikus: xubuntu still pulls in the gtk libraries, which I believe is what that article was referencing. The really lighter-weight one currently would be Lubuntu (using LXDE) | 19:32 |
| theadmin | Hilikus: By "desktop manager" you mean "desktop environment" (getting terminology straight can often be important for the right answer). But currently, Xubuntu is a lot more lightweight than Ubuntu. But Lubuntu is better yet. | 19:32 |
| solitude88 | really! Yes please | 19:32 |
| theadmin | That's my Final Answer. | 19:32 |
| solitude88 | that would be awesome dowdyph0 | 19:32 |
| detrimental | i set up ubuntu ssh server for home use (12.4) i am trying to connect with ssh using a password so i can cp my rsa key to my laptop. when i try to connect thru ssh it says premission denied but im using the correct pw, can anyone hlep me | 19:32 |
| Maka | hmmm... I managed to install some 32libs and now i get this error: ./flasher-3.5: error while loading shared libraries: libusb-0.1.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | 19:33 |
| Hilikus | theadmin: sorry, yes, desktop environment | 19:33 |
| Hilikus | i will take a look at LXDE | 19:33 |
| Hilikus | thanks Flannel theadmin | 19:33 |
| theadmin | detrimental: What about the username? Sure it's correct? If the usernames on the laptop and the server differ, you'll need to ssh with this syntax: ssh username@host. Simply using "ssh host" uses the current username, that is, the one you have on your laptop. | 19:33 |
| dowdyph0 | solitude88: find -L <path> -type l -exec echo {} \; | 19:33 |
| detrimental | thank makes perfect sense | 19:34 |
| detrimental | i was just using the ip so username@ip | 19:34 |
| solitude88 | dowdyph0 could path be a url? | 19:34 |
| dowdyph0 | soz | 19:34 |
| dowdyph0 | solitude88: nope | 19:35 |
| dowdyph0 | xDDDDD | 19:35 |
| solitude88 | :) | 19:35 |
| b14d3 | detrimental: Alternately, you can do ssh -l [username] [host], but yes the way you typed it is also correct. | 19:35 |
| dowdyph0 | solitude88: w8, what do you exactly need? | 19:35 |
| solitude88 | sweet stuff I'm going to check this out now | 19:35 |
| solitude88 | dowdyph0 I wanted to monitor my sites for broken links | 19:35 |
| dowdyph0 | solitude88: maybe you can use wget o a little python script | 19:36 |
| theadmin | detrimental: Well, problem solved :) | 19:36 |
| dowdyph0 | solitude88: so you wanna a script to extract all your links, and then test them | 19:36 |
| solitude88 | dowdyph0 happen to have something like that in your toolbox :) | 19:36 |

| b14d3 | detrimental: Otherwise, it could be a setting in OpenSSH that's forcing you to try and use a different password, I vaguely remember that in the config. One sec and I'll check mine and see what I have set | 19:42 |
| detrimental | thinkt510 i know i was jst in root, the output is the same eather way. | 19:42 |

| GunArm | i'm trying to install ventrilo server based on (http://ulyssesonline.com/2012/08/27/install-ventrilo-server-on-ubuntu-12-04/) basically I add a user 'ventrilo' and add this (http://www.benwagner.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/ventrilo.txt) script to /etc/init.d/ventrilo -- When I try to "sudo /etc/init.d/ventrilo start" it says "/usr/bin/ventrilo_srv: not found" the file /usr/bin/ventrilo_srv definatly exists with 751 permissions, I can run it manual | 19:50 |

| ubottu | mario_, please see my private message | 19:53 |
| GunArm | this is not a problem with ventrilo its like a linux shell problem | 19:54 |
| GunArm | the script http://www.benwagner.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/ventrilo.txt says that a file is not found when it clearly exists | 19:54 |

| mario_ | ln /home/mario/HTML\ workspace/ /var/www/ | 19:55 |
| mario_ | ln: `/home/mario/HTML workspace/': hard link not allowed for directory | 19:55 |

| b14d3 | GunArm: Have you tried finding a Ventrilo support channel? | 19:56 |
| mario_ | theadmin: you're awesome girl :) | 19:56 |
| theadmin | mario_: You can read manuals for specific commands by using "man command", e.g. "man ln" | 19:56 |
| GunArm | b14d3: no I haven't although this would be out of the scope of their support, since its not a problem with their software, ventrilo isn't even being run, because ubuntu is pretending to not see the file, i'm guessing it has to do with user permissions....? | 19:57 |
| b14d3 | GunArm: If it doesn't see it then something else has to be going wrong, if it gave you a permissions error then it would probably be permissions. Paste the link (or pastebin) to the shell script again. | 19:58 |
| GunArm | do I have to do something special when I adduser in order for the user to be able to su ventrilo -c "/usr/bin/ventrilo_srv -f/etc/ventrilo/ventrilo_srv -d" | 19:58 |
| GunArm | http://www.benwagner.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/ventrilo.txt | 19:59 |
| GunArm | the file /usr/bin/ventrilo_srv is permissions 751 user1:user1 | 19:59 |
| steppi | jo | 20:00 |
| b14d3 | GunArm: Pastebin the error you get when you try to run this script please | 20:01 |

| b14d3 | GunArm: Keep in mind that this is not my area of expertise, so I'm grasping at what I can with my programming knowledge. Does the ventrilo user have sudo permissions? | 20:07 |
| GunArm | man, probably not, thats kindof where I was leaning but I was just following exactly http://ulyssesonline.com/2012/08/27/install-ventrilo-server-on-ubuntu-12-04/ which has no comments of people saying hey d00d, this doesnt work! | 20:08 |

| antonio_ | what do I need to do to be able to export to mp4 with handbrake? | 20:14 |
| TheLordOfTime | Maka, they changed the name i think, not sure, but 32bit should still be installable in 64bit if you get the libraries. | 20:14 |
| theadmin | MirPooBuntu: Any line, there is no particular order | 20:15 |
| tramm | OK, I think I got it now. The key is linux-image-generic which depends incrementally on new kernels, if they are released. If I remove linux-image-generic, kernels won't be updated any more, although everything else will keep functioning fine. Is that correct? | 20:15 |

| kvothetech | and i think it's a debian package though it may also be in ubuntu | 20:24 |
| Jordan_U | lkj: Yes. Are you really talking about an encrypted home directory or an encrypted root, because for an encrypted home directory (using ecryptfs) you shouldn't need to enter any password "at boot" and only your normal login to login to your user (you shouldn't be asked for a password separately from the normal login, but automatic login is not possible). | 20:24 |
| ShadowMedic | 20:25 | |
| lkj | Jordan_U, in that case, I'm not sure what the password is for at boot ? | 20:25 |

| TheHustle | Hi | 20:45 |
| maxb | Jordan_U: Based on lkj's mention of using 'encrypt home folder' when installing Ubuntu, I think we're dealing with ecryptfs, not LUKS | 20:45 |
| petersaints | I'm trying to mount glusterfs on boot (Ubuntu 12.10 running both server and client) but it doesn't work. If after mount I make sudo mount -a than it picks up what I defined in fstab and works fine. Anyone with the same problem? | 20:45 |
| FlowRiser | nlux_, you can just change the brightness from amdcccle | 20:45 |
| FlowRiser | |Uzi|, I'm not going anywhere :P | 20:46 |
| nlux_ | FlowRiser: It won't work but thanks | 20:46 |
| Jordan_U | maxb: "/lastlog lkj" to see the whole conversation. lkj is (or at least was) confused about what they have. | 20:46 |
| lkj | surely it's encryfs? | 20:47 |
| fabio | tina.org | 20:48 |
| ocontant | lkj i feel like encryption is overkill for you and more complex for your day to day. Maybe you should consider to deencrypt your system. | 20:48 |

| bambu | Can you see my messages? | 20:49 |
| Jordan_U | lkj: maxb: Actually, I was just going off of the fact that your root filesystem is mounted from /dev/mapper and the fact that you asked about a password "at boot". It may be that you just have root on LVM or similar without LUKS, so let's confirm what you have. | 20:49 |
| FlowRiser | bambu, yes | 20:49 |
| ViaNocturna85 | bambu: we can | 20:50 |

| MirPooBuntu | how can i get it so that grub doesnt boot silently | 20:52 |
| MirPooBuntu | grub2 that is | 20:52 |
| Jordan_U | bambu: Then yes you can continue from another hard drive. Does the second hard drive have enough room for the full image or are you trying to split the image between two drives? Splitting between two drives might be difficult. | 20:52 |
| bambu | Jordan_U, The latter. The first HD (120GB) is nearly full. | 20:53 |
| bambu | Jordan_U, I might just buy IDE to USB and a 500 GB hardrive. If this won't work... | 20:53 |
| ViaNocturna85 | MirPooBuntu: during boot or all the time? | 20:54 |
| madinc | does anybody know or use xboxdrv??? | 20:54 |

| DeliriumTremens | but he had three question marks | 20:54 |

| === Uzi is now known as |UzI| | ||
| madinc | ocontant : this is in the ubuntu repos | 20:55 |
| MirPooBuntu | ViaNocturna85: the quiet command in grub is what i want to remove | 20:55 |
| FlowRiser | |UzI|, have something for us ? | 20:55 |
| MirPooBuntu | or silent | 20:55 |
| ViaNocturna85 | MirPooBuntu: Well you want to see output right? during 1 boot or that it does it all the time? | 20:55 |
| lkj | So I think I have an encyrpted home folder that requires a password at boot to unencrypt and/or mount? | 20:55 |
| |UzI| | FlowRiser: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v125/Roguewardom/2012-12-2614-46-43774.jpg | 20:55 |
| lkj | as per the default if checking the 'encrypt home folder' box at install time | 20:55 |
| MirPooBuntu | see the output all the time at boot | 20:55 |
| |UzI| | if i leave my mouse alone it will hang on that . as soon as i move it it starts going to the login screen. | 20:56 |
| FlowRiser | |UzI|, Yes, i do know that. It appeared on a very old laptop | 20:56 |
| lkj | I'm struggling to find documentation for something that is almost default at install time | 20:56 |
| bambu | I'd prefer to do it with the drives I have. I broke my last IDE/SATA to USB :p | 20:56 |
| Jordan_U | lkj: That confirms that you have LUKS. Now let's find out if you *also* have ecryptfs. | 20:56 |
| ViaNocturna85 | MirPooBuntu: edit the file /etc/default/grub and you see the line 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT'...there you see 'quit'...remove that, then run the command 'sudo update-grub' | 20:56 |
| |UzI| | I'd like to fix it. My father in law is over and sorta interested in linux but that startup bug makes him think linux is buggy | 20:56 |
| ViaNocturna85 | MirPooBuntu: 'quiet' I mean | 20:57 |
| Jordan_U | lkj: Please pastebin the output of "mount". | 20:57 |
| MirPooBuntu | thanks | 20:57 |
| lkj | Jordan_U, ok, thanks, I guess that's what happens when checing the encrypt home dir box at install time then | 20:57 |
| FlowRiser | |UzI|, To be honest, i don't really know the problems source, but it ocurred after i replaced the laptops hdd with one that i preinstalled a linux os | 20:57 |
| ViaNocturna85 | MirPooBuntu: you're welcome | 20:57 |
| DeliriumTremens | "but that startup bug makes him think linux is buggy" | 20:57 |
| * DeliriumTremens head asplode | 20:57 | |
| FlowRiser | |UzI|, what did you do to it ? :-? | 20:57 |
| ikonia | |UzI|: there are some bugs with linux, and certain video cards, which include issues such as your own | 20:58 |
| ikonia | |UzI|: could you tell me what video card is in that machine please. | 20:58 |
| DeliriumTremens | this steak that's made of meat makes me think this steak is meaty | 20:58 |

| DeliriumTremens | my bad | 20:58 |
| lkj | Jordan_U, http://pastebin.com/85tFfYgM | 20:58 |
| FlowRiser | DeliriumTremens, also, it floods the chat even more | 20:58 |
| |UzI| | I'm trying to remember. I think it's Geforce FX 5200 | 20:59 |
| ikonia | |UzI|: it's worth checking, it's important to look at the possible solutions | 20:59 |
| Jordan_U | lkj: So, you have *both* a LUKS encrypted root fileystem, and ecryptfs home directory encryption on top of that. | 20:59 |
| FlowRiser | |UzI|, how did you install linux on it ? | 20:59 |
| lkj | Jordan_U, ok. SO what is the bootime password actually doing/ | 21:00 |
| lkj | ? | 21:00 |
| ocontant | lkj give you access to your filesystem | 21:00 |
| ocontant | to boot linux | 21:00 |
| |UzI| | I formarted and parted the HD then installed like anyone else | 21:00 |
| Jordan_U | lkj: It is decrypting your root filesystem. | 21:00 |
| FlowRiser | |UzI|, on that actual machine, or on another machine ? ;-? | 21:01 |
| lkj | ok | 21:01 |
| ikonia | |UzI|: ok, lets try a basic as you don't have the card details | 21:01 |

| GunArm | b14d3: that didn't do it. thanks for the help though, i put a thread on ubuntuforums | 21:02 |
| ikonia | |UzI|: check the url ubottu sent you - try that as your first port of call | 21:02 |
| Jordan_U | lkj: I would try with GNOME Disk Utility first so there's less chance of user-error. | 21:02 |
| ocontant | bubo, local security is pretty hard, if you allow someone to have a local access, he has the potential to be able to overcome any user security you put in place. | 21:02 |
| b14d3 | GunArm: Ok, sorry I couldn't be more help | 21:02 |
| MirPooBuntu | ViaNocturna85: i think so | 21:02 |
| Bubo | dr_willis use psftp (putty ftp) to download/upload files, use mkdir, rm, vi (to create new fiels) only in that folder but not being to execute them | 21:02 |

| MirPooBuntu | ViaNocturna85: could you take a look at my fstab and see if both of my swap partitions are sorted out? i would greatly appreciate it | 21:03 |

| |UzI| | ikonia : My video card drivers are installed (i had to look up the nvida driver on this pc to tell you. That's why I said I couldn't recall. "Note that this option is sometimes needed for nVidia cards when using the default "nouveau" drivers. Installing proprietary nvidia drivers usually makes this option no longer necessary, so it may not be needed to make this option permanent, just for one boot until you installed the nvidia driv | 21:09 |
| |UzI| | ers." My question for this is why will this help if my video is setup and the gfx drivers properly installed ? | 21:09 |
| ikonia | |UzI|: I may not have the full picture here, what point do you get the image you posted ? | 21:10 |
| |UzI| | Right before my login screen. | 21:10 |
| dr_willis | |UzI|: if you are refering to the nomodeset option. ive often had to use it to install. and use it untill i get the nvidia drivers going. but ive not had to do so with the 12.10 release and my nvidia systems. Older ssytems i did. | 21:11 |
| |UzI| | I'd say during post(im not a total noob - uses freebsd) | 21:11 |
| ikonia | |UzI|: so do you get all the boot splash stuff, and then the actual login prompt just loads like that | 21:11 |
| lkj | i still cant see where to change the pass in that interface | 21:11 |
| lkj | it's not the same as the askubuntu link pic | 21:11 |
| |UzI| | I don't get a bootsplash at all that's the odd part. | 21:11 |
| |UzI| | it's not showing post but my drivers are installed | 21:12 |
| ikonia | |UzI|: ok, so try the option ubottu just gave you | 21:12 |
| ikonia | |UzI|: lets see how that improves/or not thing | 21:12 |
| |UzI| | ok | 21:12 |
| dr_willis | the nvidia drivers often break/fight with/mess up plymouth so you dont get the lovely ubuntu.... boot animation. | 21:12 |

| seoushi-temp | Hi, I just got a macbook air and installed ubuntu 12.10 on it except it doesn't detect the os on load (no boot loader). I tried using boot-repair and it detected efi but it still didn't work. Any ideas on how to get the efi bootloader recognized? | 21:40 |
| himuro | I need some help on installing kubuntu to my usb stick. | 21:41 |
| seoushi-temp | himuro, what os are you coming from? | 21:41 |

| seoushi-temp | it would probably be easiest to us unetbootin | 21:42 |
| DJHenjin | Hello, I have a question, and its going to take me a couple minutes to type it all up | 21:42 |
| himuro | I ve go unetbootin but I dont understand that | 21:43 |
| Uzi | is Ikonia still here ? | 21:43 |
| Uzi | he was helping me | 21:43 |
| steven_ | Anyone here program C++ by any chance? | 21:44 |
| seoushi-temp | himuro, whats the issue? select the distro or the iso if you have already downloaded it then select the usb stick at the bottom reboot and select the usb stick from the drive select. | 21:44 |
| seoushi-temp | steven_, yes I do | 21:44 |
| DJHenjin | I set up a new user on my ubuntu 12 server for SSH and SFTP access, and I am trying to restrict the SFTP access to only the users home directory, I followed this tut http://www.ericstockwell.com/?p=54 to try and do it. but when i log in with SFTP i get "Error, Server unexpectedly closed network connection" Before I followed that tutorial, I made sure that the user could log into SFTP, but since adding the Math User ... part i can no longer log int | 21:45 |

| Uzi | so after changing my grub to nomodeset i still have : http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v125/Roguewardom/2012-12-2614-46-43774.jpg | 21:50 |
| === Guest39819 is now known as opieng | ||
| Uzi | i had it on the reboot saw it then and then saw it before the login screen | 21:50 |
| Uzi | "reboot now" then bam http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v125/Roguewardom/2012-12-2614-46-43774.jpg then rebooting black screen where post should show and then http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v125/Roguewardom/2012-12-2614-46-43774.jpg | 21:51 |

| ikonia | Uzi: ok, so that's fine, one change done, lets move to another one | 21:51 |
| Uzi | ok | 21:51 |
| ikonia | Uzi: can you login to this system at all, eg: maybe using ssh | 21:51 |
| Uzi | i'm using it NOW | 21:51 |
| DJHenjin | can anyone help me with my SFTP issue please? | 21:52 |
| Uzi | like im on the system talking to you | 21:52 |
| Uzi | everything else is fine | 21:52 |
| ikonia | Uzi: just the login box that's a problem then | 21:52 |
| Uzi | not the login box .. before | 21:52 |
| Uzi | sec i'll take a video of this lol | 21:52 |
| ikonia | Uzi: no need | 21:52 |
| DJHenjin | i am trying to jail a specific user into their home directory with SFTP, but since using this tutorial, http://www.ericstockwell.com/?p=54 that user cannot log into SFTp anymore | 21:53 |
| ikonia | Uzi: lets just chat and work this through | 21:53 |
| ikonia | Uzi: so do you actually get a valid login prompt ? | 21:53 |
| Uzi | yes | 21:53 |
| ikonia | Uzi: ok, so it's the preboot/bootsplash that's a problem | 21:53 |
| ikonia | correct ? | 21:53 |
| Uzi | pls wait (tired of explaining video make it clr | 21:53 |
| ikonia | Uzi: I'm not watching a video, I'll park it there | 21:54 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: what SFTP client is the jailed user using? | 21:54 |
| FlowRiser | ikonia, It's the splash screen, but i'm just not sure why it would happen | 21:54 |
| DJHenjin | Filezilla | 21:54 |
| FlowRiser | ikonia, it happened to one of my laptops | 21:54 |
| ikonia | FlowRiser: if it's the splashscreen it will be a framebuffer problem | 21:55 |
| ikonia | which as this is an older nvidia card, does seem more probable | 21:55 |
| FlowRiser | ikonia, but it's just an estethic thingy, everything is normal from then (also, my video card was an old one) | 21:55 |
| ikonia | FlowRiser: seems very reasonable and inline with some known issues | 21:55 |
| LouisWust | when the user attempts to connect using Filezilla, what error does FileZilla report? | 21:56 |
| DJHenjin | Error:Server unexpectedly closed network connection | 21:56 |
| DJHenjin | Error:Could not connect to server | 21:56 |
| DJHenjin | LouisWust | 21:56 |
| FlowRiser | ikonia, yes, i searched about it, but why waste so much time fixing an issue that is shown for about 10-15 seconds ? :-? | 21:56 |
| ikonia | FlowRiser: well, that's up to some people and what's important to them, I see no problem fixing it, or not | 21:57 |
| DJHenjin | between checking SFTP before following that tut, and after, there were no changes to FileZilla's config for that user | 21:57 |
| ikonia | the problem won't be the client | 21:57 |
| Jordan_U | ikonia: If Uzi comes back, having grub hand off a text mode to the kernel might help, uncommenting GRUB_TERMINAL=console in /etc/default/grub will accomplish this. | 21:58 |
| ikonia | DJHenjin: the problem will be the server not being able to chroot and use internal-sftp | 21:58 |
| dr_willis | I tend to fix splash screen issues by just removeing plymouth. ;) | 21:58 |
| DJHenjin | ikonia, I know, just letting you guys know there are no changes | 21:58 |
| ikonia | Jordan_U: solid advice as always | 21:58 |
| DJHenjin | so ikonia, how does one go about fixing that | 21:58 |
| riderplus | after an update the computer icon has disappeared on 12.10 | 21:59 |
| riderplus | i can't find it in dconf-editor | 21:59 |
| riderplus | nor in gconf-editor/ gnome-tweak tool | 21:59 |
| riderplus | is there a way to bring it back? | 21:59 |
| dr_willis | riderplus: what computer icon do you mean? | 21:59 |
| Uzi | sorry Ikonia | 22:00 |
| riderplus | there is in gnome 3 the option of showing desktop icons | 22:00 |
| riderplus | home icon, trash, computer | 22:00 |
| ikonia | riderplus: yes, there is | 22:00 |
| riderplus | and mounted devices | 22:00 |
| ikonia | Uzi: no need to apologise | 22:00 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: just to be sure, did you restart the ssh daemon after editing sshd_config? | 22:00 |
| Uzi | well if anyone wants to: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v125/Roguewardom/?action=view¤t=2012-12-2615-53-52930.mp4 lol | 22:00 |
| riderplus | the computer icon just disappeared | 22:00 |
| riderplus | and there's no way of bringing it back, is it? | 22:00 |
| DJHenjin | i ran 'restart ssh' which showed a new process ID after running, yer LouisWust | 22:01 |
| dr_willis | riderplus: you mean the 'option to show the computer icon' has been removed? or are all the options gone? | 22:01 |
| ikonia | Uzi: Jordan_U suggested pushing grub to boot the sequence through a console rather than the boot splash | 22:01 |
| riderplus | the option is gone | 22:01 |
| ikonia | Uzi: Jordan_U's suggetion was "uncommenting GRUB_TERMINAL=console in /etc/default/grub will accomplish this. | 22:01 |
| ikonia | " | 22:01 |
| dr_willis | having a home, and a computer icon both.. seems a little redundant. ;) | 22:01 |
| riderplus | dr_willis: i realy liked that icon | 22:01 |
| ikonia | Uzi: I assume you know you have to rebuild the grub config after you change /etc/default/grub | 22:01 |
| Uzi | yes | 22:02 |
| riderplus | is there a shortcut? | 22:02 |
| ikonia | Uzi: just checking | 22:02 |
| Uzi | np :) | 22:02 |
| dr_willis | riderplus: the whole idea of icons on the desktop is also slowly going away. There are some indicator applets that add the classic places menu item to the panel. | 22:02 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: i'm going to take a moment and run through that tutorial myself, to see if i get the same problem | 22:02 |
| DJHenjin | alright, thank you LouisWust | 22:02 |
| dr_willis | i cant even reber what the 'computer' icon showed.. | 22:02 |
| riderplus | I don't like an empty desktop | 22:02 |
| mario_ | hello all | 22:03 |
| riderplus | so ... is there a way to bring the visibility of the computer icon back? | 22:03 |
| riderplus | i couldn't find it | 22:03 |
| dr_willis | riderplus: fullscreen your apps ;) | 22:03 |
| * Uzi reading up | 22:03 | |
| dr_willis | riderplus: could be its been removed. ive not heard any mention of it. Not really looked either. | 22:03 |
| dr_willis | riderplus: the forums or askubuntu.com may make mention of it. | 22:03 |
| riderplus | i didn't find anything related to | 22:04 |
| budtuba | Hi, I'm troubleshooting sound on my computer. I've tried the steps on DebuggingSoundProblems from the wiki through advanced troubleshooting. My sound isn't muted, my alsa levels are up and I have the latest alsa drivers. What should I do next? | 22:04 |
| Uzi | how would I push grub to boot the sequence through a console ? (im changing boot splash back to what it was) | 22:04 |
| dr_willis | budtuba: how are you getting sound? laptop? hdmi speakers/monitor? normal analog monitors? | 22:05 |
| Uzi | shit door bell | 22:06 |
| mario_ | i like to install skype, i has try in ubuntu software center but there aren't have skype, i go to skype.com and i click download, skype get me to select my linux distributions, there's Ubuntu 10.04, ubuntu 12.04 , debian 7.... who linux distribution to select, i have xubuntu 12.10 | 22:06 |
| IdleOne | Uzi: Please stop with the swearing. | 22:06 |
| riderplus | when I open nautilus there is a Computer tab | 22:06 |
| dr_willis | !skype | mario_ | 22:06 |
| ubottu | mario_: To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga | 22:06 |
| budtuba | dr_willis: sound is output through normal emu10k1 ports on the back of the pc to a set of speakers. The sound worked when I rebooted into Windows XP earlier. | 22:06 |
| riderplus | under Devices | 22:06 |
| dr_willis | budtuba: i had a WEIRD system once ages ago.. if i booted straight to Linux from a powered off state. my sound would work. If i booted to windows then rebooted and went into linux. sound would not work. ;) windows set the sound card settings in some weird way. | 22:07 |
| mario_ | i try with sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install skype but i have error sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install skype | 22:08 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: can you connect via SFTP locally? like 'sftp johndoe@localhost' | 22:08 |
| ikonia | dr_willis: that was a well documented bug | 22:08 |
| mario_ | my error is : E: Unable to locate package skype | 22:08 |
| dr_willis | budtuba: has sound ever worked on that box? has it ever worked with any live cds ? thats a fairly old sound card isent it? i would think it would work well by this time. | 22:08 |
| guntbert | mario_: did you see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype ? | 22:09 |
| DJHenjin | LouisWust "Write failed :Broken pipe, Couldn't read packet: Connection reset by peer | 22:09 |
| budtuba | dr_willis: this pc uses an old creative audigy2 card. What's odd here is sound had been working in ubuntu until a couple weeks ago, my dad says. | 22:09 |
| mario_ | guntbert: yes | 22:09 |
| budtuba | dr_willis: aye it should be pretty mundane. | 22:10 |
| dr_willis | budtuba: i would test with a live cd. see if it has sound. My AUdigy2 worked great in linux. | 22:10 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: what does 'service ssh status' give you? | 22:10 |
| guntbert | mario_: and did you successfully add that repository? | 22:10 |
| Uzi | sorry Ikonia i'm going to have to try to fix thislater thank you for your help (xmas extended family want me to hang out | 22:10 |
| Uzi | maybe see you on here some time soon :) | 22:10 |
| dr_willis | budtuba: its possible the card has died. rare. but possible. Or theres some wonky cable. | 22:10 |
| mario_ | yes, at second try | 22:10 |
| DJHenjin | ssh start/running, process 21317 | 22:10 |
| mario_ | thanks you very much guntbert | 22:10 |
| dr_willis | budtuba: dont do like i did once.. and had a headphone adaptor plugged in.. so i got no sound - since it thought it was sending to the headphones.. ;P | 22:11 |
| budtuba | dr_willis: yeah, I've got a livecd around here. My dad's a new user & the system has changed since ubuntu was first installed. | 22:12 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: i think i got it, check your sshd_config and make sure you have the right directory in the ChrootDirectory line | 22:12 |
| guntbert | mario_: and now, when you type sudo apt-get update are there any errors? | 22:13 |
| mario_ | guntbert: no, all is ok, and i have succefuly installed my skype, thanks you so much | 22:14 |
| guntbert | mario_: glad you made it :) | 22:14 |
| DynamicDesignz | Does anyone know how I can run Ubuntu from a server with a pxe connection? | 22:14 |
| budtuba | dr_willis: haha, happens to the best of us. :) I found our 12.04 livecd, so I'll test audio with that now. | 22:15 |
| DJHenjin | LouisWust its set to /home/talesofpirates which is correct | 22:15 |
| mario_ | guntbert: can i add all "partners" for apt-get ? | 22:16 |
| SpaceRocket | every time I start Ubuntu it asks for my password "unlock the login keyring" | 22:16 |
| e-i-k-e | hi. i was using tty2 and then logged off. while i'm currently using the "normal" desktop (strg+alt+f7) this seems to prevent standby. when i'm going to standby from "f7" gnome-shell disappears and i'm seeing tty2 asking for a user name | 22:16 |
| e-i-k-e | any other recommendations than a reboot? | 22:17 |
| escott | SpaceRocket, you might be able to change preferences in seahorse | 22:17 |
| guntbert | mario_: you just added the partner repository - that will contain all apps from "partners" | 22:17 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: and does /home/talesofpirates exist? i typo'd my own mkdir command while following the tutorial | 22:18 |
| DJHenjin | LouisWust Yes, it most certainly does exist | 22:18 |
| mario_ | guntbert: is there one partner repository or more from one ? | 22:18 |
| e-i-k-e | top says that there are 3 users logged in but lastlog only shows my account "eike tty2 Mi Dez 26 20:58:18 +0100 2012". not sure why tty2 is still listed as used port. i thought that logout in this interface would be enough | 22:18 |
| guntbert | mario_: its one repo, containing all applications from "partners" | 22:19 |

| tupu | Hi, all. I have a problem trying to access my set-top box with Lubuntu. When I mount it, it is mounting it with some gphoto2 and sees all files (including .ini files) as MPEG videos. | 22:19 |
| ztgu | hello | 22:19 |
| tupu | Apparently it thinks it's a camera. Is there a way to force it to see it just as a file system? It worked fine with Ubuntu, but now with Lubuntu I have no way of mountin git. | 22:20 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: other than the username (talesofpirates rather than johndoe), did you have to change anything while following the tutorial? | 22:20 |
| ztgu | Can anyone help me with permissions? can "cd" into /sys/kernel/debug | 22:20 |
| ztgu | cant* | 22:20 |
| blenderkid | Hi I've installed Ubuntu 12.04 Studio version. The installation was flawless, but I've got a display problem - all font characters have colored pixel at the edges. It is really tiring to read anything... | 22:20 |
| tupu | Could I use some other file manager for example? | 22:20 |
| blenderkid | And I've installed the recommended grafic driver | 22:21 |
| DJHenjin | LouisWust the username is actually topuser and the home directory /home/talesofpirates other than that. didnt change anything | 22:21 |
| tupu | The current file manager that I use is PCManFM which seems to be extremely simplified and doesn't allow me to mount it as a file system. | 22:21 |
| DynamicDesignz | @blenderkid you have to modify xorg | 22:22 |
| ztgu | Can anyone help me with permissions? I can't "cd" into /sys/kernel/debug | 22:22 |
| SpaceRocket | escott, what to change ? | 22:23 |
| DJHenjin | also LouisWust i already had the user set up with rbash to keep the user in the right directory for SSH | 22:23 |
| guntbert | !repeat | ztgu | 22:23 |
| ubottu | ztgu: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 22:23 |
| ru | can someone help me installing addons for the audioplayer deadbeef? | 22:23 |
| mario_ | ztgu: try sudo cd /sys/kernel/debug | 22:24 |
| ztgu | I have already tried | 22:24 |
| mario_ | ztgu: you can't enter in /sys/kernel/debug with normal user, you need root | 22:24 |
| escott | SpaceRocket, you will see that message if either (a) you have passwordless login or (b) your login password is not your keyring password. If (a) you would have to disable password protection on the keyring which kinda defeats the purpose of it. if (b) set the keyring password to match the login password | 22:24 |
| ztgu | mario_: sys/kernel $ sudo cd debug, sudo: cd: command not found. well sudo is not working. any sugestions? | 22:25 |
| guntbert | ztgu: you don't really need to enter that directory - you can sudo ls it, and you can view all files there (with sudo) | 22:26 |
| leonardpop | Hello! I am installing ubuntu minimal. After the installation is complete i want to install pure gnome with no extra application. I want to choose myself the mail client, messenger, web browser, media player etc. Can someone explain to me how do I do that? Thank you! | 22:26 |
| SpaceRocket | escott, Gnome2 key storage was different, but there is no option to change it | 22:26 |
| guntbert | ztgu: cd is an internal command - so sudo doesn't work | 22:27 |
| ztgu | I am going to use this command: echo ON > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch . But it's not possible | 22:27 |
| === chiluk_away is now known as chiluk | ||
| === chiluk is now known as chiluk_away | ||

| djsmithe | hi | 22:28 |
| ztgu | guntbert: thank you, but why pipe and using this "tee" command? | 22:29 |
| djsmithe | i'm trying to setup a hotmail account in evolution | 22:29 |
| djsmithe | i can sent email | 22:29 |
| DJHenjin | LouisWust any other suggestions | 22:29 |
| djsmithe | sorry | 22:29 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: how about we try running ssh in the foreground | 22:29 |
| DJHenjin | ok? | 22:29 |
| LouisWust | 'service ssh stop' and then '/usr/sbin/sshd -d' | 22:30 |
| djsmithe | i can receive email | 22:30 |
| LouisWust | that way we can see if it gives us any error messages | 22:30 |
| guntbert | ztgu: because sudo works only on the immediatley following command (in this case tee) | 22:30 |
| djsmithe | but i can't send | 22:30 |
| escott | mario_, ztgu, sudo -i to get a root shell | 22:30 |
| DJHenjin | okay, done that | 22:30 |
| djsmithe | any suggestions? | 22:30 |
| guntbert | escott: not necessary here | 22:30 |
| LouisWust | cool, now try connecting using 'ssh topuser@localhost' DJHenjin | 22:31 |
| LouisWust | from a different shell | 22:31 |

| LouisWust | all right, are there any promising messages in the first shell, DJHenjin? the last couple of lines might have something we need | 22:33 |
| amaurea | Hi! I'm trying to watch some new dvds I've bought, and most of them work fine. One of them, however, doesn't seem to be mounted properly - the dvd spins up and down a couple of times, and then it gives up. This dvd is brand new, so it shouldn't be damaged (but I guess it might be a defective copy). Are there any more fault-tolerant ways of mounting a dvd than the default auto-mounting? | 22:33 |
| DJHenjin | bad ownership or modes for chroot directory /home/talesofpirates | 22:33 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: for instance, i got 'safely_chroot: stat("/home/johndo"): No such file or directory' when i misspelled the directory in sshd_config | 22:33 |
| ikonia | amaurea: it's possible the encyption | 22:33 |
| DJHenjin | LouisWust see the message above yours | 22:33 |

| amaurea | ikonia: All the other dvds in the same dvd set work fine, though. It seems odd that one of them should be completely different. Also, the CSS encryption is not supposed to prevent mounting of the dvd, is it? | 22:34 |
| LouisWust | and check to see what the Uid: and Gid: fields say | 22:34 |
| defice0 | 22:34 | |

| leonardpop | Hello! I am installing ubuntu minimal. After the installation is complete i want to install pure gnome with no extra applications. I want to choose myself later the mail client, messenger, web browser, media player etc. Can someone explain to me how do I do that? Thank you! | 22:37 |
| hauke_ | ok thanks so far | 22:37 |
| mario_ | ztgu: sorry, but i don't know how to help you | 22:37 |
| ocontant | detrimental, tell us more ... | 22:37 |
| guntbert | ztgu: wrong, to write to the file you need what I wrote above, to read it just sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch | 22:37 |
| detrimental | just installed ubuntu server, ssh. set up password and everything but when i try to connect via laptop on the same network it asked for my password but says the password is invalid. i looked in sshd config and ssh config and password authenicate is set to yes. im conecting like this ssh -v username@ip | 22:37 |
| amaurea | ikonia: Ok, I guess I'll just have to procure a replacement copy through alternative means | 22:37 |
| ikonia | detrimental: what is the username you are using ? | 22:38 |
| ztgu | i see | 22:38 |
| detrimental | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1468311/ | 22:38 |
| ocontant | is username root? | 22:38 |
| ocontant | or another username? | 22:38 |
| detrimental | james | 22:38 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: just to make sure the chown and chmod worked, try 'stat /home/talesofpirates' again and verify that Uid has become root and Gid is still topuser | 22:38 |
| detrimental | on both | 22:38 |
| ocontant | ok | 22:38 |
| detrimental | james@192.168.1.9 is what im trying to connect to from my laptop in same network | 22:39 |
| DJHenjin | yes, that took effect LouisWust, going to run SSH in front again and try the SFTP from another shell | 22:39 |
| defice0 | -quit | 22:39 |
| ocontant | detrimental: are you sure that you are using the right password ? you can login locally with the same username and password? | 22:39 |
| detrimental | yes | 22:39 |
| detrimental | im infrom of my server right now and i got a monitor hooked up | 22:39 |
| guntbert | detrimental: look what /var/log/auth.log has to say | 22:40 |

| detrimental | remote | 22:41 |
| detrimental | one sec | 22:41 |

| ocontant | detrimental: ikonia: he says he is in front of the server and able to login locally | 22:41 |
| detrimental | theres alot in there | 22:42 |
| DJHenjin | Weird, now when i try to log into topuser on SSH, the putty windows just closes | 22:42 |
| mario_ | ztgu: i'm so sorry, but i don't know how to help you | 22:42 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: yeah, that happens for me, too | 22:42 |
| ikonia | detrimental: on 192.168.1.9 please do "ssh localhost" and try to login | 22:42 |
| LouisWust | i think it might be by design | 22:42 |
| ocontant | DJHenjin: check your authlog and message log file | 22:42 |
| ikonia | detrimental: top user ? | 22:42 |
| ikonia | detrimental: sorry not you | 22:42 |

| guntbert | ztgu: were you able to write into that file now? | 22:42 |
| andygig | I need 1024x1280 | 22:42 |
| DJHenjin | ikonia, a username i set for a Tales Of Pirates server. | 22:43 |
| ikonia | DJHenjin: does it have a valid shell ? | 22:43 |
| DJHenjin | rbash | 22:43 |
| detrimental | nope cant log in ssh localhost from the server mashine | 22:43 |
| ikonia | detrimental: rbash.....that probably won't be in the shell file as a valid shell | 22:43 |
| guntbert | ikonia: a username with blank? | 22:43 |
| ikonia | detrimental: ok, so we know the problem is with the ssh setup on 192.168.1.9 | 22:44 |
| ikonia | guntbert: pardon ? | 22:44 |
| detrimental | so its my configuration | 22:44 |
| L1n0x | hello | 22:44 |
| DJHenjin | allows SFTP connections only. GRRR. i need to allow SSH, and SFTP | 22:44 |
| ikonia | detrimental: sshd_config | 22:44 |
| ocontant | detrimental: do you see a prompt asking for the username? | 22:44 |
| guntbert | ikonia: I was calling in from the side line about "top user" :-) | 22:44 |
| L1n0x | what is the german ubuntu irc channel | 22:44 |
| detrimental | no | 22:44 |
| andygig | how to change resolution? | 22:44 |
| ikonia | guntbert: ahh I didn't know if it was "topuser" or "top user" | 22:45 |
| ocontant | detrimental: that's an important information you said password not working ... you didn't you couldn't tyep anything at all | 22:45 |
| ztgu | guntbert: No I need to change to file: echo ON > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch to turn on the GPU that is currently disconected. I did this command becouse of permissions: echo ON > /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch | grep sudo tee /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitchertoo/ | 22:45 |

| detrimental | where is the sshd.config | 22:45 |
| escott | detrimental, /etc/ssh | 22:45 |
| ikonia | detrimental: it's sshd_config - pleaes try to pay attention | 22:46 |
| guntbert | ztgu: you are making it complicated, I said type echo ON | sudo tee /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch | 22:46 |
| detrimental | ok sry | 22:46 |
| detrimental | im in the file now. | 22:46 |
| guntbert | L1n0x: the command is /join | 22:46 |
| ikonia | detrimental: is 192.168.1.9 an ubuntu machine ? | 22:47 |
| ztgu | I did but when i "cat" it. it says off | 22:47 |
| detrimental | yes it has ubuntu server with ssh | 22:47 |
| DJHenjin | LouisWust probably has to do with the ForceCommand internal-sftp | 22:47 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: agreed, and i think that the intention of the tutorial was to make an sftp-only chrooted user | 22:48 |
| DJHenjin | yeah, probably | 22:48 |
| === forcefsck is now known as ioannis | ||
| === ioannis is now known as forcefsck | ||
| guntbert | ztgu: maybe the setting si wrong - that entry is no regular file, its just an interface to talk to the kernel - but I am off (bedtime) - Good luck! | 22:49 |
| LouisWust | i think that to properly chroot topuser with a full shell, you'd need to set up a full chroot environment | 22:49 |
| SpaceRocket | I added the OpenDNS servers IPs in the network manager and even in resolve.conf but when verifying it on the website it fails | 22:49 |
| DJHenjin | wondering if there is a way to allow it to be SSH and SFTP | 22:49 |
| ztgu | guntbert: ty 4 ya time | 22:49 |
| guntbert | ztgu: no problem :) | 22:50 |
| detrimental | under authentication logingracetime 120 permitrootlogin yes and strictmode is set to yes | 22:50 |
| ikonia | DJHenjin: you're telling it to use sftp-internal.....that's all it can do | 22:50 |
| DJHenjin | ikonia, i know. but is there a way to not force just SFTP and allow SSH AND SFTP | 22:50 |
| andygig | how to change resolution? | 22:50 |
| LouisWust | DJHenjin: i think the trouble is that to allow ssh, you need to include a lot of extra stuff underneath the chroot directory, like a shell and system libraries and all that | 22:51 |
| LouisWust | this may be your next step: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 22:51 |
| ikonia | DJHenjin: I don't know, but I don't see how as both ssh/sftp are port 22, so I don't see how you can switch internally with some sort of "flag" to let them know different options are required | 22:52 |
| LetterRip | hi I have ubuntu installed in both wubi and in a partition, I'd like to remove the partition and return to the windows bootloader and only use the wubi install | 22:53 |
| LetterRip | any recommended way to do so? | 22:53 |
| ikonia | LetterRip: re-apply the windows boot loader from the windows install CD with the fixmbr option | 22:54 |
| escott | DJHenjin, you can do some things with auth_keys files, but what exactly are you trying to do | 22:54 |
| DJHenjin | escott, I need a user that can access SSH, and SFTP but both limited to just that users home directory | 22:55 |
| LetterRip | ikonia - not feasible | 22:55 |
| LetterRip | a) no CD drive | 22:55 |
| LetterRip | b) windows cd is mia | 22:55 |
| escott | DJHenjin, but why... what are they supposed to be able to do with ssh in their home directory | 22:55 |
| LetterRip | missing | 22:55 |
| ikonia | LetterRip: better mae it feasible then | 22:55 |
| Khaos | Does anyone know if it is Feasible to run Backtrack under Vbox? | 22:55 |
| ikonia | make | 22:56 |
| ikonia | LetterRip: a.) write to microsoft with your key, and they will give you a new CD | 22:56 |
| ikonia | LetterRip: b.) put the CD onto a USB stick to fix | 22:56 |
| DJHenjin | escott, to allow them access only to the server software for their game server | 22:56 |
| LetterRip | ikonia - it is entirely possible to do it via ubuntu usb stick | 22:56 |
| ikonia | Khaos: yes it is | 22:56 |
| LetterRip | no need for windows at all | 22:56 |
| Khaos | Does it operate as its own OS or should i put a platform underneath it? | 22:56 |
| escott | DJHenjin, but what binaries will they have to run to access their server? | 22:56 |
| ikonia | LetterRip: sure, you can apply the windows bootloader file from the file system back to the windows mbr | 22:56 |
| ikonia | Khaos: it runs as it's own oS | 22:56 |
| DJHenjin | escott the server is self contained, doesnt depend on anything. | 22:56 |
| Khaos | Good to go, thank you ikonia | 22:57 |
| ikonia | Khaos: the channel for backtrack help is #backtrack-linux | 22:57 |
| Khaos | ahah that was what i was going to ask next haha thank you | 22:57 |
| escott | DJHenjin, so they have a binary written in C that you trust and just want them to be able to trigger it | 22:57 |
| escott | DJHenjin, would they always execute that binary the same way? or are there changing parameters? | 22:58 |
| DJHenjin | escott, I will be setting up the server myself. they will only really need access to the config files, and the binary to start and stop the server | 22:58 |
| escott | DJHenjin, "access to the config files" meaning they need bash and a text editor | 22:58 |
| DJHenjin | SFTP to be able to upload/download maps/config files | 22:59 |
| DJHenjin | SSH to trigger the binary only | 22:59 |
| escott | DJHenjin, in a way this is kinda silly. So you chroot me, allow me sftp, and give me bash. I'll upload gcc and debian-bootstrap and install everything I want within that chroot | 22:59 |
| DJHenjin | escott, If they knew how to do anything more than start and stop a server, they wouldnt have hired me to configure, setup, create the server | 23:01 |
| francesco_ | list | 23:01 |
| Khaos | Ikonia: i launched to the backtrack room, but it says i cannot send msgs, ... im probably being retarded, but is there something funky i have to do to be allowed access to a given channel? | 23:02 |
| L1n0x | pls say the backtrack channel | 23:03 |
| voxcroix | BT5 r3 Install backTrack icon is still there after installation | 23:03 |
| escott | DJHenjin, so what? I dont get the point. If they are sophisticated the proposed chroot+upload does not prevent them from running arbitrary code. If they are not sophisticated then basic unix permissions should prevent them from getting into anything they shouldn't have access to | 23:03 |
| Khaos | #backtrack-linux | 23:04 |

| dr_willis | nlux: again.. its NOT 77.. thats a mode.. not a mask. | 23:22 |
| === \Jan is now known as KsM | ||
| Khaos | welp.. you got me there mate. im not entirely sure now. | 23:23 |
| dr_willis | mask >> 7777-xxxx=mode | 23:23 |
| nlux | dr_willis: mount tells me that's my mask.. | 23:23 |
| Khaos | if it helps Mac.. you are yellow to me now | 23:23 |
| nlux | dr_willis: not even using gksudo, I haven't got any success. | 23:23 |
| DaemonicApathy | Predicatore: I'm sure someone in #C knows. | 23:23 |
| * nlux sighs | 23:23 | |
| dr_willis | nlux: theres literally thousands of web sites out that detail the mount options for vfat. ;) what does the mount command say its mounted as now? coul dbe some weirdness with the usb | 23:24 |
| MacAoidh | the colour your nicname is onscreen | 23:24 |
| brightspark | Hi all. I got a new laptop and would like to dual-boot Linux on it as I do my current one; gparted unfortunately will not create a new partition due to the machine shipping with 4 as factory standard. Suggestions? | 23:24 |
| brightspark | MacAoidh, the procedure is different depending on the client you use to connect to IRC. | 23:24 |
| brightspark | My 4 partitions are: System, Windows filesystem, Windows recovery, HP BIOS stuff. I don't particularly want to destroy any of these, and I'm concerned that making any of them extended rather than primary partitions might make them unusable. | 23:24 |
| MacAoidh | anyways how do i get on backtrack channel ??? | 23:24 |
| dr_willis | MacAoidh: my client gives every nick a differnt color. or tries to. | 23:24 |
| nlux | dr_willis: /dev/sdd1 on /media/x type vfat (rw,gid=100,uid=1000,dmask=0077,fmask=0077) | 23:24 |
| dr_willis | !backtrack | MacAoidh | 23:24 |
| ubottu | MacAoidh: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) | 23:24 |
| DaemonicApathy | brightspark: Assuming you mean to install Ubuntu specifically, the install disc has partition management built right in. | 23:24 |
| dr_willis | nlux: i would unmount it.. and fix the gid. ;) its 100 as shown.. not 1000 ;P | 23:25 |
| escott | Predicatore, i would check some of the interactive proof assistants to see what they use to parse | 23:25 |
| MacAoidh | ok thanks | 23:25 |
| dr_willis | and i would not use the mask options yet. | 23:25 |
| brightspark | DaemonicApathy, true; but when I shrink one partition in order to create another, it tells me that the freed space is 'unusable'. | 23:25 |
| Khaos | click this #backtrack-linux | 23:25 |
| nlux | dr_willis: thank you | 23:25 |
| lupo_ | backtrack <3 | 23:25 |
| dr_willis | backtack... used most by people that relly shouldent be using backtrack... from what ive seen.. ;P | 23:26 |
| brightspark | DaemonicApathy, so I used gparted to try and partition it in advance, but it won't create more primary partitions than 4 on the device. | 23:26 |
| SolarisBoy | backwack | 23:26 |
| Khaos | Solaris sounds jealous.. | 23:27 |
| SolarisBoy | lol | 23:27 |
| Khaos | ;D | 23:27 |
| nlux | dr_willis: it was 100 inbefore, I've tried with 1000 and no luck, still ro | /dev/sdd1 on /media/x type vfat (rw,gid=1000,uid=1000,dmask=0077,fmask=0077) | 23:27 |
| DaemonicApathy | brightspark: excuse me if this is ignorant, but does it have to be primary, instead of just logical? | 23:28 |
| dr_willis | nlux: i got fmask=0022 and dmask=0022 here | 23:28 |
| nlux | dr_willis: tried with fmask=0022 and dmask=0022 still ro.... | 23:29 |
| escott | brightspark, its almost certainly a primary vs extended partition type issue | 23:30 |
| dr_willis | nlux: you are Unmounting it befor you remount it? | 23:32 |
| nlux | dr_willis: of course.. | 23:32 |
| dr_willis | nlux: id say check out some examples of mounting it. | 23:32 |
| brightspark | DaemonicApathy, the partitions shipped with the machine are all primary. I'm concerned that they will not function as intended if I make them into extended partitions. | 23:32 |
| brightspark | escott, I think this is the case; I am looking for guidance as to how I can work around it. | 23:33 |
| escott | brightspark, what is the output of "sudo parted -l" and what are you trying to accomplish | 23:33 |
| nlux | dr_willis: guess I'll just use a microsd adapter.. thanks alot | 23:33 |
| riderplus | the keyboard layout doesn't show up. how to change the layouts in 12.10? I have already added the gnome3 ppa and it says everything's up to date | 23:34 |

| gribouille | why did chkconfig disappear from quantal? | 23:34 |
| SpaceRocket | how to create separate /home partition when using full disk encryption through Ubuntu 12.10 installer | 23:35 |
| DaemonicApathy | brightspark: I was thinking more of making the Ubuntu install an extended partition, containing logical partitions for the system and swap. My only problem is that I don't know partitioning well enough to be sure that would work. | 23:35 |
| === Prodego_ is now known as Prodego | ||
| Jordan_U | brightspark: Your only options are either to do something with one of those partitions which will make it (at least temporarily) not "usable", or install via Wubi, and I don't recommend installing via Wubi. | 23:35 |
| brightspark | escott, I'm typing from a different machine, so it will take a few minutes to transcribe. I am attempting to create a partition onto which I can install linux. I am currently using a bootable mint-stick to run gparted. | 23:35 |
| Jordan_U | DaemonicApathy: You need a free primary partition to be used as the extended partition (the extended partition counts as one of the 4 primary partitions you're allowed). | 23:35 |
| brightspark | DaemonicApathy, I would like to do that, but I can't create _any_ partition at the moment. | 23:36 |
| escott | brightspark, ok. without knowing what is on those other partitions i can't say if they would be affected by being on an extended partition | 23:36 |
| DaemonicApathy | Thank you, Jordan_U, I knew I was missing a key fact somewhere. | 23:36 |
| brightspark | Jordan_U, escott, thanks. I'm going to write up what's on the other partitions. | 23:36 |

| Worsty | Hey | 23:39 |
| TomyLobo | query mcpbot | 23:39 |
| TomyLobo | oops | 23:39 |
| Worsty | I have a question: I installed ubuntu 12.10 onto a flash drive using luks encryption. The thing is, it only boots on the computer I installed it from. | 23:40 |
| Worsty | When I try to boot off of the USB on other computers it just bypasses it | 23:40 |
| freshstart | how can i know when i've intalled a DE?i mean the history of it | 23:40 |
| Worsty | Does anyone have any idea as to why that may happen? | 23:40 |
| === ared_ is now known as xDEADCA7 | ||
| Jordan_U | Worsty: What do you mean by "bypasses"? What actually happens when you try to boot this USB drive from another machine? | 23:41 |
| SolarisBoy | freshstart: you can try to look in /var/log/dpkg.log | 23:41 |
| trism | gribouille: expand the arrow: "Not useful or potentially useful with non-sysv init systems such as upstart." | 23:41 |
| freshstart | SolarisBoy: thanks | 23:41 |
| mickray97 | is there an app that can id a laptop MB? | 23:41 |
| SolarisBoy | freshstart: yw | 23:41 |
| Worsty | Jordan_U: the flash drive blinks showing its being read from, then it just boots into windows | 23:41 |
| SolarisBoy | mickray97: you can try dmidecode | 23:41 |
| ForSpareParts | Hey guys, do any of you use XBMC? I'm trying to make a shortcut to start Steam Big Picture from it, and the #xbmc channel doesn't have much activity atm | 23:41 |
| ForSpareParts | I was thinking that it should be possible by triggering the steam://open/bigpicture URL and having the system resolve it, but for the life of me I don't see any way to create an XBMC shortcut to just a URL. | 23:42 |
| odinsbane | I locked my screen and now I cannot unlock it. | 23:42 |
| mickray97 | from terminal? | 23:42 |
| Jordan_U | !bootinfo | Worsty | 23:42 |
| ubottu | Worsty: Boot info script is a usefull script for diagnosing boot problems. Run the script following the directions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and then look at RESULTS.txt (or !pastebin it for others to look at). | 23:42 |
| odinsbane | It is completely black except for the pointer mouse pointer. I was able to ctrl-alt F6 to get a new tty | 23:43 |
| SolarisBoy | yes - it can grab info on devices attached to the mobo, cpu, etc depending on how much info they expose - i usually have good luck with it - used to use it to determine server model types | 23:43 |
| SolarisBoy | mickray97: ^ | 23:43 |
| odinsbane | mickray97: I am using a new tty but I would prefer if I didn't have to restart a session to stop the lock. | 23:43 |
| mickray97 | tks | 23:43 |
| gribouille | what is the recommended tool to enable/disable services? | 23:44 |
| SolarisBoy | yw | 23:44 |
| brightspark | escott, Jordan_U, thanks for your patience. I transcribed the output and pasted it to http://paste.ubuntu.com/1468505/ | 23:44 |
| freshstart | SolarisBoy: how a ubuntu2d DE will be displayed? | 23:44 |
| freshstart | SolarisBoy: in /var/log/dpkg.log | 23:44 |
| SolarisBoy | is think its the gnome-classic package - not quite sure though freshstart | 23:45 |
| === Catbuntu is now known as Neshemah | ||

| SpaceRocket | how to sync Gmail contacts with Gnome Contacts? | 23:45 |
| escott | brightspark, there is currently no free space as for the purpose of those partitions you need to boot windows and figure out what they are for. one is windows C another is probably recovery. the third could be some OEM partition or a data partition | 23:46 |
| odinsbane | What is the program that locks the screen? | 23:46 |
| mickray97 | hmmm denied permision do i have torun from /root? | 23:46 |
| SolarisBoy | mickray97: no - but run it with sudo "sudo dmidecode" | 23:47 |
| odinsbane | gribouille: you can use service [name of service] [start/stop/restart] | 23:47 |
| odinsbane | gribouille: there is also a graphical one, but I do not have a web browser at the moment to check it. | 23:47 |
| mickray97 | ahh i forgot to add that | 23:47 |
| brightspark | escott, in GParted, they are labelled: SYSTEM, unlabelled (this one is the big C: drive though), Recovery, and HP_TOOLS respectively. | 23:47 |
| SolarisBoy | how about for upstart? | 23:47 |
| Jordan_U | Worsty: You can run boot info script from any GNU/Linux system, just make sure that the USB drive is plugged in when you run it. That means that you can boot from the USB drive on the original machine, from a LiveCD/USB on any machine, or from any GNU/Linux installation you happen to have. | 23:47 |
| SolarisBoy | like how to turn service off and on other than removing the conf from /etc/init/? | 23:47 |
| gribouille | odinsbane, I know that, but what is the replacement of chkconfig? | 23:48 |
| odinsbane | gribouille: I don't use chkconfig. | 23:48 |
| gribouille | odinsbane, what do you use? | 23:48 |
| SolarisBoy | chkconfig is from redhat but ported to debian no? update-rc.d is what you would use for sysv services | 23:48 |
| SolarisBoy | you use the files in /etc/init/*conf for upstart gribouille | 23:48 |
| psusi | brightspark, you are going to have to pick one to blow away or convert to an extended | 23:50 |
| gribouille | why isn't there a conf file for apache in /etc/init/? | 23:50 |
| SolarisBoy | gribouille: i dont believe apache is moved to upstart | 23:51 |
| SolarisBoy | gribouille: it would use the standard sysv /etc/init.d/apache2 which is linked in the rc.d* folders | 23:51 |
| brightspark | escott, the HP_TOOLS partition has a directory "Hewlett-Packard" which contains subdirectories labelled "BIOS", "BIOSUpdate", and "SystemDiags" | 23:51 |
| MacAoidh | nick newnick | 23:51 |
| brightspark | psusi, I'm trying to find out whether any of these partitions will even be functional for their intended purpose if they are converted to extended partitions. | 23:52 |
| === MacAoidh is now known as TT079 | ||
| SolarisBoy | gribouille: so you would use update-rc.d to manage enabling/ disabling startup of the apache daemon, and you could use /sbin/service or just call the /etc/init.d/apache2 script for job control to start/stop and check status and whatever else is available from the apache start script | 23:53 |
| TT079 | hi | 23:53 |
| freshstart | the /var/log/lastlog indicates information about the lastlog in the computer? | 23:53 |
| SolarisBoy | freshstart: about the last logins and their events | 23:53 |
