[00:00] popsch, both of the commands are 100% safe [00:00] kostkon, yep, autoclean cleaned up a lot [00:00] nice [00:01] I swear if I hit the power ball jackpot I will pay someone to fix this for me lol [00:01] my congratulations to the whole ubuntu community. I know how hard it is to ensure that dist-upgrades are working. all the services seem to run flawlessly. thanks [00:02] Why kernel headers are installed by default? why non-tech user would need them? [00:02] popsch, happy to hear that. i have had a similar experienced. many dist-upgrades, all successful. [00:03] I always have the weirdest problems [00:03] I have been using ubu tu for 5 years and I can never get a problem solved in chat [00:03] ubuntu-tester, i think the kernel headers are needed for dkms, or whatever is called. it rebuilds certain modules after every kernel update [00:04] ubuntu-tester, like for example, non-free drivers. [00:04] I feel the same way thedark12 [00:04] I will say at least people respond here [00:04] in the Mint Linux chat when I was asking I got silence [00:05] I get silence [00:05] <[_-S1L3NC3-_]> You Do [00:05] That is why I guess my problems are weird [00:06] The whhile reason I am using 10.4 is because I cant get later versions to work with tv out [00:06] blkadder r u still here [00:06] Nobody could help with that [00:06] Now I need to manually upgrade qt to use some software [00:07] Because I cant use the repo stuck with the old version [00:07] kostkon: any other examples? if i don't use non-free drivers, would i need headers? [00:08] Googled and manually did make install but the software doesnt recognize that I have upgraded [00:08] I am guessing you got silence because unless you have someone write a new driver for it your sol [00:08] ubuntu-tester: if you don't need them remove them [00:08] I guess [00:08] ubuntu-tester: if you're not sure, leave them, they will cause no harm and take up a very small ammount of disk space === Danausplexippus is now known as Idsi [00:09] ikonia: i will, but want to be sure [00:09] ubuntu-tester: sure about what ? [00:10] ubuntu-tester, jsut keep them, to be on the safe side [00:10] ikonia: sure nothing in the system would need them [00:10] ubuntu-tester: why do you want to remove them ? what problem are they causing you ? [00:10] they take up about 2k of disk space, and if you are in any doubt....which it sounds like you are, why remove them === Danausplexippus is now known as Idsi [00:11] Hi all. I seem to have grub/windows loader on the wrong hdd. I need my 1TB (media disk) connected to boot. Yet Win7 and Ubuntu are both on another partitioned disk. How can I fix this? any how-to on the web would be much appreciated. [00:11] ikonia: well in the 1st place i learn the system. the minor reason is to save traffic updating them with the kernel [00:12] ubuntu-tester: the package is about 2k - it's not really a saving [00:12] and what are you learning about the system by removing them......nothing [00:13] So how about qt? There is no way to uograde it without upgraing from 10.04? [00:13] thedark12: not from the ubuntu repos, is there a reason you need an upgrade ? [00:14] ikonia: funny, i misread it as 2M [00:14] re [00:14] Can i mount an existing folder as a different owner, folder: test owner test, mounted folder: test owner test1 [00:14] Eagleman: the permissions are at the file system level - not the mount [00:15] c"est quoi le nom du pack pour le son sur ubtu [00:15] svp [00:15] ikonia: what about linux-libc-dev? [00:15] ubuntu-tester: what about it ? [00:15] ubuntu-tester: none of this is instaled by default [00:15] jai essayer alsamixer mais ca fonctionne pas [00:16] GetCodeMonkey: 12.04 is LTS, you're looking to run 3 monitors, umm, how easy or difficult that is depends on just what your setup is. I've had hell trying to get 2 graphics cards to output at once (one nvidia and one ATI card), but for instance, my current setup uses an A10 APU and 3 monitors was as simple as just connecting them and using the proprietary ATI driver. [00:16] ikonia: i have it installed in quantal. no non-free drivers, no dkms [00:17] ikonia, its not possible to add " virtual permissions" to a mounted folder? [00:17] is it possible to make a new user on a ubuntu server but give that new user access to exactly what root has access to [00:17] !fr | ph4nt0m [00:17] ph4nt0m: Nous sommes désolés, mais ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. [00:17] Eagleman: no, beyond acls [00:17] but that's not what you want [00:17] I am trying to package a application when I run debuild -S however when i run it i get the following error http://codepad.org/66UKDNAa [00:18] bubba99: Still here? I'm not sure what the > means. [00:18] what is the gui to mix sound plaese i tryed alsamixer but no pack in the rpos [00:19] Note_: It's certainly possible, you mean via sudo right? You just need to add them to the sudoers file. A quick google for "add user to sudoers file" should turn up exactly how you do it. [00:19] hi kunji yes still here. i didnt want to do anymore till i discussed this. when i type a command in now it just gives me another line with the > on it [00:19] kunji, thank you [00:19] How can I see (and change) what disk my os(s) boot from? [00:19] kunji in other words the leading comment on each line (initramfs) has now disappeared. [00:20] ikonia, i want some of my local folders mounted in my www directory ( owncloud ) , what would be a good way to secure those things, so when my owncloud setup is hacked, the files are still safe [00:20] Eagleman: use the correct permissions [00:20] bubba99: hmm, what does it show you if you use "ls -la" ? [00:21] CT1: the bios settings [00:21] bubba99: Both are lowercase "L" there [00:21] correct permissions as in? [00:21] Eagleman: as in set the permissions for the user you want to use the files [00:21] kunji i am just preparing the livecd again on usb. this time i am doing it in IE instead of chrome and i also realixed that i was putting the ubuntu download file on the usb with the unetbootin transfer as well. so i put that in a different location on hdd this time and took it from there [00:21] kunji problem is I have two monitors [00:21] I am sorry two video cards [00:22] If I had one video card that supported 3 monitors it would be so easy [00:22] ikonia: linux-headers-generic is a meta-package linux-headers- are a real headers and thay are 12M compressed [00:23] GetCodeMonkey: Yeah, 2 tends to be difficult, I've never gotten it working, but I always figured it would be easier if the ones I was trying to use were the same make, or used the same driver. [00:23] kunji that command just gives a > again [00:23] ubuntu-tester: so ? [00:23] bubba99: No output? Hmm, how about pressing ctrl+C does that give you back the other prompt? [00:23] Kunki that may be why it worked for me before I had the same video cards before one died and I replaced it with a cheap one [00:23] I quit gaming so I figrued it would not matter [00:24] ikonia: just the answer to your "the package is about 2k - it's not really a saving" [00:24] kunji ok my usb is ready again now [00:24] ctrl c = no change > [00:24] bubba99: I suppose try the usb again, I think I'm out of ideas T.T [00:25] kunji should i just try normal boot first? [00:25] ikonia: still interested in the reason they are installed [00:25] ubuntu-tester: sure sure, but I suspect you'd be unwise to remove them as libc-dev and the headers are not installed by default (I'm sure someone running a clean install can verify) [00:25] kunji in recovery mode ? [00:25] bubba99: It can't hurt, but we didn't really change anything. [00:25] dr_willis_: I must press F12 at boot to select my disk that I have all my media on (video/mp3/text) as the boot disk for grub to work properly. I want to have it boot from the disk my operating systems are installed on instead (as I remove the "media" disk frequently) === alright_fine is now known as crazy_person [00:26] Kunji I may look into getting a new video card that will support all 3 monitors at once [00:26] hello [00:26] what is the gui to mix sound plaese i tryed alsamixer but no pack in the rpos [00:27] dr_willis: GRUB might be installed to the external drive for CT1 [00:27] anyone use live-build, having trouble with config/chroot I think, for the kernel and also console-common though I have universe etc enabled [00:27] I must be going crazy, but is there a beta out for 13.04 yet? [00:27] CT1: install grub on the internal drives [00:27] GetCodeMonkey: Hmm, I've heard of people getting it to work with different cards, I've just never managed to. [00:28] nginx-extras - nginx web server with full set of core modules and extras [00:29] Does that package lack auth_digest module? [00:29] Kunji I managed to once along time ago and then I screwed the install up. Reinstalled and never could get it right again [00:29] CT1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing Probably want to look at "Reinstalling GRUB2 from a Working System" and do it on your internal drive. [00:30] [emerg] 20626#0: unknown directive "auth_digest" in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default:45 [00:31] It's this module https://github.com/samizdatco/nginx-http-auth-digest/blob/master/readme.rst [00:32] dr_willis_: Thanks for the advice. kunji: Extra thanks for the link! [00:33] kunji i ran recovery mode. we have more info now that before mount: mounting /dev/disk/by-uuid/b13717b1-d190-4e22 bla bla bla on /rootfailed:invalid argument . begin: running /scripts/local-bottom....done done. [00:34] bubba99: So is this still the GRUB shell you're in, or the proper Ubuntu recovery one? [00:35] ikonia: have traced deps with aptitude: linux-libc-dev -> libc6-dev -> gcc -> ubuntu-desktop. description for the latter: "This package depends on all of the packages in the Ubuntu desktop system. It is also used to help ensure proper upgrades, so it is recommended that it not be removed." so it's a Canonical's desision to include gcc and krenel headers in desktop system by default. even if no dkms is installed (my example). i want to know the reason for [00:35] begin: running /scripts/init-bottom mount: mounting /dev on / root/dev failed: no such file or directory then the same message below this as originally from mount syson/root no such file directory down to try passing init=bootarg [00:35] ubuntu-tester: errr gcc for upgrades....don't think so [00:35] Hi all, I am right now running the 12.10 live cd. I have the installer open. I chose "manual partioning" and the screen that came up only shows two of my hard drives. The third (which I wish to install ubuntu on) isn't there. However, the "device for boot loader installation" does show it. What should I do to try to debug it? [00:36] I want to install on sda but it only shows sdb and sdc for partitioning [00:36] kunji still in grub shell (root sheel i guess) [00:36] smw: open a terminal and sudo fdisk -l [00:36] smw: please pastebin the output of that command [00:36] bubba99: b13717b1-d190-4e22-ab90-b767-c7b9952d, ok, so it is trying to load the correct uuid, Well, does say fdisk -l work now? [00:36] kunji do i try the bios change to usb and run livecd [00:36] ubuntu-tester: gcc is a "Recommends" of ubuntu-desktop [00:37] bubba99: If it does, then we have the useful shell, otherwise go for running the livecd [00:37] histo: http://fpaste.org/nW0M/ [00:37] hello all [00:37] kunji fdisk -l no change still says not found [00:37] anybody here have experience with nginx configuration? [00:38] anyone knos lxde? [00:38] !anybody | danman1453 [00:38] danman1453: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. [00:38] jrib: you're right. i've missed this. then why it's on my system? i didn't build anything [00:38] bubba99: Then yeah, back to the livecd I guess. [00:38] smw: not sure why the partitioner isn't showing sda. Your live cd is seeing it from that pastebin. [00:38] why no sound out there [00:38] gone shutdown again and try livecd on usb. i changed the files on their now since last try [00:39] kunji *going to [00:39] histo: http://imgur.com/uxHbcXy [00:39] ubuntu-tester: well apt-get installs recommends by default and I'm going to assume the same behavior is true of the initial install [00:39] bubba99: Yep, hopefully it works [00:39] smw: that's bizare [00:39] histo: yes it is [00:39] ubuntu-tester: as to /why/ it's there at all, I cannot tell you [00:40] I have ubuntu 11.10 running, with nginx and php5-fpm installed. I can browse to the index.html (welcome to nginx page), but not the index.php page. The page generated claims "no input file specified" [00:40] histo: every release, I get more fed up with ubuntu... :-\ [00:40] no help off course [00:41] can anybody help me with this? [00:41] ciaoo [00:41] danman1453: you better ask this on #nginx [00:41] smw: pretty sure this bug was fixed, but check if sda is mounted [00:42] oh, thanks [00:42] Hi [00:42] jrib: mount | grep sda returns nada [00:43] smw: great, that's not it then :) [00:43] Does anybody know how can I have bash shell support unicode? [00:43] mojtaba: it is set to utf-8 by defualt... [00:43] mojtaba: it does support unicode [00:43] kunji do i set to usb cd rom or usb hard disk in the bios? does it matter as long as i set HDD to 6th [00:43] smw: one more... check if swap is getting used: swapon -s [00:43] smw: I have some file names in Persian, but it just show them reverse [00:44] jrib: nada [00:44] bubba99: Hmm, it probably doesn't matter, if it doesn't work then maybe try the other way just in case. [00:44] ok selected usb hard drive [00:44] mojtaba: Persian is read right to left? [00:44] smw: yep [00:44] mojtaba: not sure how you fix that... never had to deal with that myself [00:45] smw: file a bug [00:45] jrib: got a link with instructions? [00:45] Does anybody know how can I use RTL language in bash shell? [00:45] smw: ok, thanks [00:46] !bug | smw [00:46] smw: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. [00:46] jrib: thanks [00:46] smw: if you want to get it installed, and can't find a way to make the live cd you have work, you might try the minimal or server install [00:47] Does anybody know how can I use RTL language in bash shell? [00:47] jrib: this is actually my first time using the live cd [00:47] jrib: I always used the alternative cd... but apparently that is no longer supported... [00:48] smw: that's right, but the minimal and server installer will use the installer you're used to from the alternate cd. You just have to be sure to install ubuntu-desktop and you should end up with the same end-result as using the live cd [00:48] alternative cd is gone in 12.10+ [00:49] Does anybody know how can I use RTL language in bash shell? [00:50] mojtaba: what language? [00:50] persian [00:50] could someone please type my nick? I would like to check if my highlighting is working. [00:50] vampirnata: no [00:51] hello, what command can i type to see which driver is used by all my NICs ? [00:51] kunji ok nothing happening - its just a dark screen with a single _ in the top right corner. usb stick was flashing and is now constantly lit. if i shut down again and go through recovery mode and then put the usb in I bet it will respond and give something [00:51] Thanks :) [00:51] ahha lol [00:51] Dr_Willis: yep, I knew that [00:51] bubba99: Hmm, the usb is constantly lit? Try doing a ctrl+alt+f1 when it's in that state [00:52] Dr_Willis: this is why I am trying ubiquity in the first place ;-) [00:52] kunji just beeps at me - no change [00:52] still lit [00:53] ubuntu-tester: Do you have any idea? [00:54] bubba99: Sorry, I don't know what else to try. [00:55] Can somebody tell me why when installing 12.10 the options to encrypt the installation are greyed out / unavailable ?? tried googling couldnt find anything [00:55] jrib: what package do I specify as the problem? [00:55] Does anybody know how can I use RTL language in bash shell? [00:55] Does it support it? [00:55] smw: ubiquity [00:55] kunji me neither. i may have to pack it up and send it back to the seller and get him to fix it [00:55] jrib: ah, of course [00:55] mojtaba: actually no. just googling. see if this can help: http://projects.arabeyes.org/download/documents/howto/arabic-howto-en/index.html [00:56] My openvpn works on ubuntu but my Android client wants P:OpenVPN ROUTE: OpenVPN needs a gateway parameter for a --route option and no default was specified by either --route-gateway or --ifconfig options. Never asked for that until latest update [00:56] kunji anyway thanks for trying to help me. you gave me plenty of things to try [00:56] kunji i do have 1 last question for you [00:57] AndChat330644: latest update of openvpn? [00:57] bubba99: ? [00:59] kunji how do i know what system is running under ubuntu. i read that some are windows based and some are linux based. how do i know? when i did boot it before the problem it just went straight to ubuntu logo???? [01:02] how do i find the process that is using dpkg? [01:02] On a Macbook 2,1 with Ubuntu 12.10 I am having problems with the wireless connection whereas with Lubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) it worked just about fine. Now pinging the router doesn't even always work, and forget pinging google.com, I might get a 700ms response and then 7 Destination Host Unreachable and then 400ms... By the way I have a Win7 right beside, with consistent ~50ms pings to [01:02] google.com with no dropped packets. Any help immensely appreciated. [01:02] bubba99: Ubuntu uses the linux kernel. It is possible to run it in a virtual environment that might have a different host OS, for instance in VMWare. Or are you asking about the Wubi installer? I'm not exactly sure how the Wubi installer works. [01:03] BTW my wireless card is atheros ar5418 [01:05] kunji its only what i have been reading. the online shop were i got the notebook laptop from told me the OS system is ubunto 12.04LTS . the live cd we are creating from unetbootin says it is windows based. when i ran the middle option which is linux based it did not load the same on the usb? I wonder if i should try this option again???? [01:05] bubba99: which vender didyou buy the laptop from? [01:05] bubba99: I would contact them as there should be support [01:06] bubba99: Oh, that, they're just referring to whether you're creating the livecd on windows or on linux. You're making it on a windows machine right? So they are referring to it as a "windows based" install. [01:07] bubba99: Or is this something unetbootin itself asks? [01:07] jrib: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1101952 [01:07] Ubuntu bug 1101952 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "ubiquity does not see hard drive" [Undecided,New] [01:07] histo yeah i think they will support. they sent me a link to ubuntoforum post about the problem and that is what i have been trying. i will contact them again on monday when they reopen. they may be able to help over the phone but i expect if push comes to shove the machine will have to go back for them to sort it out [01:07] what's the difference between linux-image-generic and linux-image-extra-generic (version omitted)? [01:08] bubba99: Can you link the page to the directions you're using? [01:08] kunji unetbbootin has 3 options available for creating the livecd. i dont remember what the third was [01:09] bubba99: Ok, if it's something unetbootin is asking, then you probably want the linux option [01:09] Can somebody tell me why when installing 12.10 the options to encrypt the installation are greyed out / unavailable ?? tried googling couldnt find anything [01:09] smw: looks good, you can see in the UbiquityPartman.txt there's no mention of sda too [01:10] jrib: yeah, saw that [01:10] jrib: the reason I am upgrading is that gnome-shell starts using up a ton of cpu for no reason occassionally... [01:10] bubba99: I'm not seeing an option like that: http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ [01:11] smw: what version are you on now? [01:11] jrib: was hoping an install of the newest would fix it [01:11] jrib: 12.04 [01:11] kunji i did try the linux option but it seemed to load differently. thinking about it though, it may have been because i copied over the top of the existing windows copy on the usb. i think i will scrub the usb and start fresh with the linux option [01:11] smw: you know you can just do an in-place upgrade? [01:11] jrib: I am not a fan of those... call it paranoia ;-) [01:12] jrib: I have other problems too such as the computer not shutting down, but I believe that was caused by the fglrx driver [01:12] smw: I've done one fresh install (by choice) since 4.10 on this machine :) [01:12] kunji - yes its the middle blue box of the 3 at the top of the page u just posted [01:12] jrib: the computer doesn't shut down, it freezes and I need to do a hard shutoff... [01:12] jrib: (again, looks like the fglrx driver which steam wanted me to install is to blame) [01:12] Q: I have a correct C++ program compiling in ubuntu 64 bit with g++ v. 4.7.2, but I am having memory allocation issues. It grabs half of the chunk taken up by one array and sticks it in another. If this possibly caused by Ubuntu? [01:13] bubba99: The Download for link? [01:13] I have a question: I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, My brightness setting for my LCD seems bugged. If it is not at the lowest setting the backlight flickers from high to low and the entire computer halts until you can manage to set it back to 0 or restart. [01:13] jrib: I am right now trying to figure out what the hell I want to use. I hate unity and gnome-shell is causing my computer's fan to make noise when I am not at my computer [01:14] jrib: xubuntu is looking like an idea [01:14] kunji yes on the link u just posted its the middle blue box that says download (for linux) [01:14] bubba99: You download UNetbootin for whatever system you're running UNetbootin on (the system you're using to make the usb). [01:15] bubba99: So, whatever OS you're on right now [01:15] kunji ok i see. well that is windows [01:15] bubba99: Ah, ok, so download the windows one, start the executable and you should be at that first screen shot they show. [01:16] kunji you mean execute on this laptop im writing on? [01:16] jrib: anyways, I am going to try the minimal cd, want me to ping you with the results? [01:17] bubba99: yep [01:17] smw: I'll be in and out, sure [01:17] How would one remove the Grub program [01:17] jrib: adios [01:17] bubba99: I assume that you've downloaded a .iso file for the version of Ubuntu you're making a livecd of right? So pick the Diskimage option, leave ISO on that pull down menu, then click the ... and find the .iso in your filesystem [01:17] DavisPond: why do you wish to remove grub? [01:18] Does anybody know how can I use RTL language in bash shell? [01:19] I tried to restore Windows 7, it removed Windows 7 but did not reinstall it. I'm thinking the Grub is the problem. [01:20] DavisPond: ok, be more specific, what did you do? What is the current status of the computer. [01:20] kunji yes i have the iso version of ubuntu 12.04 and then i unetbootin it using windows option and saved it on the usb [01:20] bubba99: Once you're there, make sure it's writing to your usb drive and not some other drive, because it will erase everything currently on the drive. Then press ok and it should create the livecd on the usb drive [01:20] jrib: damn it, this is why I can't come in here, I get stuck helping :-P [01:20] bubba99: Ok, how you were doing it and not working? Or were you doing something else before? [01:21] I did the F9 thing while booting up. Now the computer will only come up in Ubuntu. If the windows option is picked it kicks over to Ubuntu. [01:21] DavisPond: you had windows 7, you installed ubuntu, then ubuntu did not show up in the boot menu? [01:21] bubba99: Sorry, I mean, is this what was not working before [01:21] DavisPond: ok [01:21] No Ubuntu was successfully installed. [01:22] DavisPond: can you pastebin the output of sudo update-grub2 ? [01:22] kunji no thats how i always done it . but originally i was saving the .iso ubunto version file to the usb stick too and i thought that was affecting the data read when i put it in the notebook [01:22] No I'm not that good. [01:23] DavisPond: open a terminal, type sudo update-grub2[enter] and then copy and paste the output to fpaste.org [01:23] kunji and when i tried the unetbootin (for linux) version i copied it over the top of the windows version !!! i didnt think to delete the original first. so maybe that could have affected it [01:23] DavisPond: then give me a link to the paste [01:24] kunji so to open the usb on this laptop which file do i need to open on the usb folder? [01:24] bubba99: Hmm, ah, I see what you mean. Actually having that there probably didn't make any difference, I tend to use a usb as both livecd and for moving files around. [01:24] DavisPond: also, pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l [01:25] bubba99: ?huh, what do you mean, to boot from the usb? [01:26] How can I stop apache2 and cups from starting on boot? [01:26] kunji you said i should try the livecd on this laptop to see if it is loaded correctly. would i just select autorun on the usb stick folder? [01:27] xxx with chkconfig for ex. [01:28] bubba99: Oh, no, you would try booting this laptop from the usb and see if you can get to a livecd environment [01:29] DavisPond: still here? [01:29] ubuntu-tester, I tried to use the option --set apache2 off - but it did not work.. [01:29] kunji is that a bad idea?? [01:31] bubba99: Nope, not a bad idea at all. The worst that can happen is that it doesn't boot from the usb, in which case it will just boot your Windows normally. Otherwise it will load a menu, choose the livecd option instead of the install one. It will boot Ubuntu and then you just shut it down and take out the drive. No harm done. [01:31] I am trying to add a ppa to my system however I am getting an error http://codepad.org/Cbf35Np6 [01:32] system is new install of ubuntu 12.04 [01:32] bubba99: Double check that the bios give the usb boot priority over the HD boot of course, otherwise you'll just keep ending up with Windows booting. [01:33] Does ubuntu 64 bit 12.10 have memory allocation bugs in the g++ compiler? I can't get valid c++ code to work on my machine. [01:33] xxx: try update-rc.d [01:33] kunji just worries me that this is my work laptop. i dont own it. and i dont have admin rights. not sure if it will let me in the bios? [01:34] SaidKLE: I doubt it, pastebin your code and I'll take a quick look, those kinds of errors are usually the coders, as in, like 99.99% of the time. [01:34] bubba99 bios is separate form operating system, it starts before any kind of operating system, just try? [01:35] bubba99: If the BIOS is password protected, then you won't be able to change it to boot from usb first, but it's easy to check, you just try it and find out, no harm done if it doesn't work. [01:35] SaidKLE: have you searched launchpad [01:35] bubba99: Bothering with password protecting the BIOS is pretty rare in my experience though. [01:36] hola? [01:36] !es | brayan [01:36] brayan: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y presione intro. [01:37] :/ [01:37] histo: That's a good place to check for bugs, but I see people say that so often, and not once has it been a compiler error in my experience, it has actually always turned out to not be valid C++. [01:37] grub wont boot my windows [01:38] !grub2 | comps [01:38] comps: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 - See !grub1 for releases before Karmic (9.10) [01:38] no? [01:38] i lost it by installing ubuntu, [01:38] comps_: yes please refer to the second link [01:38] comps_: for troubleshooting and information. [01:38] it just cycles grub when i tick my windows 7 [01:39] After upgrading to 12.04, can't seem to print to a Samsung laser printer via IPP. Cups is installed and seems to work, but nothing prints. Any hint ? [01:39] comps_: did you manually partitoin yoru disk or let the installer do it? [01:39] from windows i skrinked 60gbs then let it do its thing. [01:40] it took the 6gb part, and extended it [01:40] 60* [01:40] comps_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Troubleshooting [01:40] When my ubuntu goes into screen-saver mode, as in, the screen turns black after 10 minutes without input, the CPU is being used 100% by compiz - is it normal that compiz eats my cpu while my pc is supposed to wait for me to return? [01:40] comps: Check out those links, and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 then let us know if you're still having trouble. That documentation most likely has the answer unless you wrote over windows by accident, but that should be fine unless gparted complained about something. [01:41] After installing bsd into another partition, now ubuntu doesn't boot as well. (EFI) [01:41] i tried boot-repair, same results [01:41] hmm [01:42] :/ [01:42] hey do u have the same problem perhaps ? :) [01:42] efi? [01:42] ring any bells? [01:43] yeah, it's these new ones that ship with the new win8 protection stuff [01:43] giving me a headache [01:43] comps_: boot-repair isn't that great, you should probably reinstall grub, and if that doesn't work then add windows to the menus manually. [01:43] walk me thru? please [01:44] comps_: That documentation does a really good job, I learned everything I know about GRUB2 from it and it alone, but I'll be happy to help if you have more particular questions. [01:45] i am medicated stoned, please:/ [01:45] EFI has actually not been an issue for me, if it's not working for you, then shouldn't turning off the boot protection in the BIOS really make it not an issue? [01:45] i think there are new issues with the newest ones [01:46] z77 mpower [01:46] !uefi | qualia [01:46] qualia: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [01:46] i have uefi.. [01:46] yeah i have the same thing i did my research, i installed GRUB2 on it's own with bsd only [01:46] bsd? [01:46] sorry [01:47] oh, the compiz bug is related to fglrx proprietary driver... lucky I got google skillz [01:47] i installed it with ubuntu, knowing that ubuntu has UEFI solution and it works, but they don't dual boot. I added a boot menu on my OWN but it didn't work, i did boot-repair it didn't work [01:47] Turn off the boot protection in the UEFI [01:47] my windows 7 shows in grub, just when i click it, back to grub. [01:47] plus, i still don't understand how can a new os installed in a new partition, destroy the whole thing and not even ubuntu boots up now [01:49] not sure but i think i will need my uuid:/ [01:49] Most be some manufacturers really botching things then [01:49] just cant think of why [01:49] Well this is not too good. It lets me into Ubuntu, takes my pass word, the mouse works for a few seconds then it locks up. CTRL ALT T does not return a terminal window at that point. [01:50] Tried reboot several times to no avail. [01:50] comps_: You can get the uuid for a partition by running blkid /dev/sdax x being the partition number and a being the driver letter, as you see from sudo fdisk -l [01:50] DavisPond: can you ctrl+alt+F1 to get to a console? [01:50] No joy. [01:50] I'm using a UEFI motherboard right now http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157339 [01:50] Hasn't given me any problems at all [01:51] kunji, so i am going in my uefi to turn off boot protection? === ericab_away is now known as ericab [01:52] Maybe I have a hardware problem? [01:52] comps_: That's the recommended way to get it booting if it doesn't want to cooperate, of course mine has cooperated nicely, so I don't have personal experience with it's success rate. === tjbiddle_ is now known as tjbiddle [01:52] kunji, i will try, hope for best. [01:52] DavisPond: did you check the iso you downloaded for errors? Also have you check the burned cd or usb for errors? [01:53] I've written a python script that loads an XML file relative to the python script. now I've make a soft link to the bin loader, and when I run the script from the link the path is all wrong. So how do I get the path of the python script, not the link?

Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [01:53] jjgalvez__: Maybe try a python channel [01:53] No. That reminds me I shall try the new boot USB I made [01:54] kunji r you here ? [01:54] bubba99: yep [01:54] On cups error log I get a "Unknown directive SystemGroup on line 3 of /etc/cups/cupsd.conf" [01:54] Ok I have an idea, it's possible to install GRUB 2 from the Ubuntu 12.10 LiveUSB terminal right ? [01:54] qualia: yep [01:54] kunji ok the problem is defo the usb stick [01:55] qualia: I believe it involves chrooting and then installing like on a working install [01:55] kunji, without installing any OSes though [01:55] kunji i changed bios to boot from usb and tried 3 times - nothing it just goes straight to windows load [01:55] Just updated to 3.5.0-22 kernel. intel video driver failed to initialize. found in Xorg.0.log: "open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory". how do i trouble shoot this? [01:55] qualia: yeah, you just install GRUB2 [01:55] ok i understand [01:55] kunji, thank you, have a lovely day [01:56] bubba99: Hmm, well, I guess that's good and bad, bad that it doesn't work, but it sounds better for the computer. === zak is now known as Guest86187 [01:57] wassup peoples [01:57] no boot protection.. [01:58] just bss options [01:58] and the windows 8 feature is off [01:58] :?

[02:00] kunji yeah do you think i should try the linux download version again? [02:00] I cannot get the Eee netbook to boot up now. [02:00] bubba99: Not unless you've got another linux machine to try doing it from [02:00] DavisPond, nothing boots? [02:01] kunji, are you there? http://paste.ubuntu.com/1550765/ [02:01] Well it boots, goes into Ubuntu when I select it in Grub 1.99 and then lets me log in to my user account. Then it freezes up. [02:01] comps_: yeah, I'm looking at it right now [02:02] DavisPond, :-\ [02:02] kunji no i havent. so you sure i need the windows download? [02:02] bubba99: yep [02:04] The netbook was booting up before and letting me on. [02:04] kunji ok well its getting very late here in uk. im going to give up for tonight. thanks for your help and if and when i sort it I will try and let you know. thanks again [02:04] comps_: What happens when the boot fails, is it a blank black screen, or does it give you an error message, or what? [02:04] nope [02:04] bubba99: No problem, I hope you get it working. [02:05] just flashes to grub again [02:06] no errors, it goes black for a second and back to grub (10 seconds to boot ubuntu etc) [02:06] comps_: oh, hmm, I remember that happening before, I don't remember what the problem was though T.T [02:06] ): [02:06] kunji i hope so too. i dont really want to have to send it back for repair but if i have to I will. im sure if the worse comes to worst then they will just wipe it and reinstall. i dont have any files/folders on it yet anyway [02:07] i could repair mbr [02:07] bubba [02:07] just run windows repair [02:07] does anyone know what the name of skype would for linux?

[02:08] bootsect.exe [02:08] one sec [02:08] been trying to find a skype client but can't remeber the name of it. [02:08] comps_: You could try that, bubba99's situation is a bit different than yours though, he never had Windows on there, and is trying to get Ubuntu to boot. [02:09] oh [02:09] ubuntu fail to boot? [02:10] try adding --no ahci? [02:10] comps_: Hmm, I'm curious if maybe you need special firmware? I just notice the section on line 299 of what you posted that is empty. [02:10] just long time since i play on linux [02:11] ok guys goodnite [02:11] and thanks again for your assistance [02:11] well i am usining a z77 mpower board [02:11] msi [02:11] msi z77 mpower [02:12] i am learning more about this OS all the time [02:12] comps_: Yeah, I tried looking it up quickly but I didn't see anything relating to it in particular with ubuntu [02:12] is there a clean windows boot entry? [02:12] bubba99: Yep keep at it! [02:13] wait --no ahci work? [02:13] comps_: not sure, I think he was giving up for the night [02:13] jrib, I officially hate the minimal cd. Too damn long to download everything! [02:14] Well, I need to go, family is waiting for me, I'll probably be back in the morning. [02:14] smw: but the cd itself was fast :) [02:14] so what can i do? [02:14] am i going be able use grub? [02:14] jrib, where do you vote for them creating alternate cds again? [02:14] jrib, apparently, they are still useful!

[02:15] kunji, i want back in windows): [02:15] i can only get it to work if i lock the wireless in bios [02:15] i remember my old dell 4600 [02:15] using linux [02:15] cant use ahci [02:16] had to add the no ahci option [02:16] to make it boot [02:16] Just updated to 3.5.0-22 kernel. intel video driver failed to initialize. found in Xorg.0.log: "open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory". how do i troubleshoot this?

[02:18] jrib, yep, stupid mistake [02:18] now i remember bubba [02:18] try acpi=off [02:18] jrib, should have installed the bare minimum and then used my ubuntu live cd [02:18] jrib, the ubuntu live cd contains all the packages, right? [02:18] jrib, or I guess that was only the alternate cd [02:19] smw: you can't use the live cd in that way, right. [02:19] jrib, ok, why the hell did they remove the alternate cd.
