xubuntu048so Have a question07:10
xubuntu048regarding the best server to use with xubuntu07:11
xubuntu048whatever... no response i'm out07:14
heraclitisI'm having problems with my networking connection. I try to ping my loopback, no response. My gateway, no response.09:02
baizonheraclitis: post your ifconfig output on paste.ubuntu.com please09:02
moetunesheraclitis:  does   ifconfig -a   show the device is UP ?09:03
heraclitismoetunes: yes pasting in a few seconds. Had to transfer from one computer to another.09:06
heraclitisPasted.09:08
baizonheraclitis: post link here ;)09:08
heraclitishttp://paste.ubuntu.com/1557867/09:08
heraclitisI see how that works. That's pretty awesome.09:08
baizonheraclitis: try to ping 192.168.0.109:09
baizonor what is your gateways ip adress?09:10
heraclitisI waited 13103ms, 100% packet loss. 14 packets transmitted. And my gateway is 192.168.0.109:10
heraclitisip address 192.168.0.8009:10
heraclitisnetmask 255.255.255.009:10
baizonheraclitis: yes, saw it on your paste09:11
heraclitisignore ipv6, it's irrelevant (my router doesn't support it).09:11
baizonis it your home network?09:11
heraclitisIt is my home network.09:12
baizonheraclitis: you dont use a mac filter right?09:12
heraclitisnegative09:12
heraclitisNever could get that configuration to work properly. lol09:13
heraclitisWhat baffles me is that I can't even ping my own computer.09:15
baizonyou cant ping localhost?09:15
moetunesis there a /etc/hosts file that mentions localhost ?09:17
heraclitisnegative. And when I ping from my laptop, I get this response: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1557884/09:18
heraclitisAnd no, I can't ping localhost. Give me one second moetunes. I'll check09:18
baizonheraclitis: try to ping 127.0.0.109:20
heraclitisI have 127.0.0.1 listed as Localhost in /etc/hosts. And 127.0.1.1 as $compname in the same file.09:20
heraclitisI ping 127.0.0.1 with 100% packet loss09:21
heraclitisI've been monitoring the interface with wireshark, and I get icmp Destination unreachable (host unreachable) errors. All traffic is local, from 46132 using the UDP protocol09:25
moetunescan you paste /etc/hosts ?09:25
heraclitisOccasionally I'll get an attempted ARP to the default gateway. And I'll paste that in a second.09:25
moetunesI'm pretty sure it'll be a config somewhere09:27
heraclitismoetunes: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1557904/09:28
moetunesso hostname is unreal?09:29
heraclitisYes09:29
heraclitisIt was the first thing that came to mind09:30
heraclitisWhile installing09:30
heraclitisYou know, like "unreal, man"09:30
moetuneswhat is setting the eth1 to 198.168.0.80 ?09:30
moetuneswhy is it 127..0.1.1 in /etc/hosts?09:31
moetuneswhy is it 127.0.1.1 in /etc/hosts?09:31
heraclitisMy networking connections is setting it to 192.168.0.80. Manual configuration. And I don't know why it's 127.0.1.1 That caught my attention as well.  Should I make it the same as localhost?09:32
moetunesno - make it 192.168.0.8009:32
heraclitisOkay one sec.09:33
heraclitisDone, restarted networking. I get this error when restarting: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1557947/09:39
heraclitisI'm guessing my /etc/network/interfaces should contain something referring to eth0 or eth1 and their ip configuration, but I don't know the syntax, or if I'm right.09:41
moetunestry    service network restart09:44
heraclitisI believe the syntax of that command would be "service networking restart" and it says stop:Unknown instance:Start: Job failed to start09:46
heraclitisBad formatting there.09:46
moetuneshave you installed xubuntu in ubuntu then manually set the network up?09:48
moetunesseems like you need to set the /etc/network/interfaces file up manually too09:49
heraclitisNo, it was a fairly fresh install of xubuntu from the desktop iso image. I needed something faster than ubuntu. And I just tried setting up the /etc/network/interfaces file manually. No luck. Same error as before. I followed the syntax for static routing as shown here: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch05.en.html#_the_basic_syntax_of_etc_network_interfaces09:54
heraclitisI actually have two network adaptors. Both were working until this last boot. Now one says "device not managed". And the other is giving me problems.09:55
heraclitisI've even tried using usb instead of ethernet to connect. I do have dhcp disabled on my modem, and I'm using google's dns servers. So I have to statically route.09:56
moetunesok. I'd try another reboot just to check if it is a one of glitch or check in dmesg for clues on why it filed09:57
moetunes*failed09:58
heraclitisokay. Rebooting now.09:58
heraclitisThe plymouth splash screen says "Waiting for network configuration". That's new. Doesn't seem to be working. How do I access dmesg? And what sort of clues should I watch for?10:01
moetunesI would start with   dmesg | grep -i net   in a terminal10:04
heraclitisI don't know how to read this output, so I'll send it your way. Give me a sec.10:07
heraclitishttp://paste.ubuntu.com/1558101/10:09
moetunesthere seems to be some fail there on the "terminated with status 1" lines and the last suggests networkmanager is starting10:15
heraclitisI discovered one error, in the /etc/network/interfaces. Where it said "iface lo", it should have said "auto lo". So now I can ping localhost "unreal" (compname).10:17
heraclitisNow I need to gain lan access. I'm going to try to reboot, and see if the changes to /etc/network/interfaces made a difference.10:18
heraclitisOff topic, but how to I read the messages that are listed during shutdown? I keep getting something about "insecure pipe" (to paraphrase immensely). It scrolls by too quickly to read it. I know it's not related to this issue though.10:22
heraclitisI've restarted. I'm now getting a massive packet loss while pinging the default gateway, but I'm getting one. Average packet loss seems to be about 94%. (2 of 35 received). Making progress. Lol10:25
heraclitisNo connection to outside world, though.10:25
moetunesshutdown messages aren't logged anywhere10:28
heraclitisBefore restart, I also edited the /etc/network/interfaces to read: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1558224/10:30
moetunesI'm guessing there is still something upn with your interfaces file10:30
moetunesremove the dns-domain line and eth0 can't be auto and static afaik10:32
heraclitisI just remembered something that may make a difference. I've been playing around with tor for a while, and me being the "monkey see, monkey do" type with computers (i like to see what'll happen)... I edited some of the configuration of ~/.ssh10:35
heraclitisAnd I removed that line. Is there a way to reset ~/.ssh to defaults?10:35
moetunesssh won't interfere with a net connection10:36
moetuneshttp://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch05.en.html#_the_network_interface_with_the_static_ip10:36
heraclitisafter removing "auto" and the "dns domain" lines from the file, I loose connectivity from the default gateway.10:36
moetunes^ says no auto wiyh static10:37
moetunesnameserver should be in /etc/resolv.conf instead of the interfaces file10:38
heraclitisoh okay. I'll change that.10:38
heraclitisWhen I go to change that file it says "Do not edit this file by hand -- Your changes will be overwritten"10:39
heraclitisit says nameserver is 127.0.0.110:40
moetunesthat's from networkmanager which you should make sure doesn't run if you are manually setting the network10:40
heraclitisso I should change nameserver to 8.8.8.8 if I want it to be google's dns server?10:43
moetunesyes if you stop networkmanager from running10:45
moetunescan't stress that enough10:46
moetunescan't stress that enough10:46
heraclitisHow do I stop networkmanager from running on boot? I know I can stop it while the comp is running, but at boot it'll try to start automatically, won't it?10:47
moetuneshttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager#Disabling_NetworkManager10:50
heraclitisI'm up and running. I deleted everything in the /etc/network/interfaces with the exception of "auto lo" and "iface lo inet loopback". Then I stopped networking by running "sudo service network-manager stop" then I ran "sudo start network-manager". Worked like a charm. I'm viewing google now from that computer. Thanks for everything, sir. I wish there were a way to repay you for your time and effort.10:55
moetunesyou gave up doing the manual setup you had? glad it's working :)10:56
heraclitisI am still using manual ip address and dns configuration. But through network manager. I can't use auto dns or address leasing through my router. It's a pos from my ISP. I need to get a cisco. Lol. I'm glad it's working, too.10:59
heraclitisNow I can finally get off this Ubuntu 12.04 laptop. After using xubuntu, I can't go back. I'll find you when I log in over on my desktop.11:00
heraclitisThanks again, moetunes!11:08
moetunescheers ;)11:08
heraclitismoetunes: are you using pidgin? If so, I have a movie I'd like to give you in exchange for your help.11:15
moetunesheraclitis:  I use weechat and I saw the movie was ready to be transfered but I have plenty of movies thaks ;)11:20
moetuness/thaks/thanks/11:20
heraclitisNo thank you. If there's anything I help you with, let me know. I'd be glad to try.11:21

niuniomartinezHi. I have a problem with OpenGL.12:40
niuniomartinezIt does work (Open Arena, SuperTux Kart, eDuke32) but Allegro has some problems.12:41
niuniomartinezThey suggested (http://www.allegro.cc/forums/thread/61153) that it's a problem with drivers.12:43
niuniomartinezBut I don't know which one I'm using...12:44

heraclitisgood voip service for pstn on xubuntu? not cisco?16:23
holsteinheraclitis: "good" is a matter of opinion.. what are you looking for? and what have you tried? and what hasnt worked about what you have tried? i thought pstn was not a voip16:25
heraclitisI have only used Magicjack, but it only works in Windows. I would stay in Ubuntu all the time if my phone service could be transferred here as well. Magicjack uses voip to transfer to pstn. I would like something I could use with a current number, or a new one for little to no cost. Up time of more than 80 percent would be great, as well. secure would be excellent, but not a requirement.16:26
holsteinheraclitis: you can port your # to google voice or a similar service and use it on the operating system or device you choose16:28
heraclitisI've been giving serious thought to nettalk... it can stand alone or be plugged into a computer. Similar to magicjack. I'm using the old usb dongle for magicjack.16:28
heraclitisGood point. I didn't think about google voice.16:28
heraclitisAnd that will allow me to make calls from my computer as though it's my old number, correct?16:28
holsteinheraclitis: im not a google-fan-boy... i just like the service... there are a lot of options with google voice16:29
holsteinchase follow... widgets that will go straight to voicemail and not show your #... dialing to and from other #'s... custom voicemail messages... plus, it works in the browser with linux16:31
heraclitisLol. I reserve judgment with Google. And what's this chase follow? Is it in Synaptic?16:31
holsteinheraclitis: if you want to program a few #'s for google voice to try... it'll try one.. then the next.. so on, til you either answer one of the phones, or it goes to voicemail16:32
heraclitisThat's pretty neat.16:33
heraclitisI'm checking it out now.16:33
holsteinheraclitis: its not a "linux" solution, but it works in linux... i would just read about it, and feel free to /join the #xubuntu-offtopic channel and i'll share more specifics16:35

heraclitishow to allow virtualbox through ufw?18:04
heraclitisnat or bridged best?18:04
holsteinheraclitis: i usually change settings so the vm gets an ip from the router18:04
holsteinthen, its the same as if it were a normal machine on the network18:04
heraclitisand would that be nat or bridged to config that way?18:05
holsteinheraclitis: i dont think you can bridge, and share the IP of the main machine, and get a seperate IP to the VM18:06
heraclitisI have two network adaptors. (3 if necessary).18:06
heraclitisIf that makes a difference.18:06
holsteinheraclitis: i have only ever set up the VM so it gets an IP from the main gateway, just as a normal machine...18:07
heraclitisI have it set up that way. default gateway is the same, ip lease is the same, dns the same, but only lo (127.0.0.1) has any activity or connectivity.18:07
holsteinheraclitis: you are getting an ip from theh gateway? can you ping the gateway? and/or other machines on your network?18:09
holsteindid you "break" the dns settings trying to set a static ip?18:09
heraclitisno ping from gateway on VM, from host, yes. I'm communicating with you on it. And I set up my dns manually.18:09
holsteinheraclitis: then its not set up properly18:10
holsteinheraclitis: when you can ping the gateway, you'll be able to forward ports from the gateway to the VM18:10
heraclitisI'll keep working at it. lol18:10
