| cholby | hey is there an ubuntu I can put on my iphone? | 00:06 |
| cholby | I don't like iOS | 00:07 |
| bean | cholby: no | 00:07 |
| Random832 | carif: showkey will give you scan codes | 00:07 |
| Random832 | carif: run it on the console, and 10 seconds of silence to quit. | 00:07 |
| cholby | bean somebody told me there was a mobile version in beta | 00:07 |
| cholby | i can't find it though | 00:07 |
| cholby | is it on sourceforge? | 00:07 |
| bean | cholby: whoever told you that was a liar. | 00:08 |
| Random832 | cholby: it's not going to be for iphones, most likely | 00:08 |
| cholby | why can't I just put the current version of ubuntu on my phone? | 00:08 |
| bean | because that is not how phones work | 00:08 |
| bean | they're specialized to run one certain piece of software | 00:08 |
| Random832 | bean: in theory it is, there could totally be a cyanobuntumod | 00:08 |
| bean | Random832: on iphone? | 00:09 |
| Random832 | but i don't think ubuntu phone OS is even ready at all, let alone ready to be ported to random hardware | 00:09 |
| shwaiil | hi | 00:09 |
| Random832 | bean: IIRC someone did once successfully install android on an iphone | 00:09 |

| will3032840 | Hello? I need some help with ubuntu and a WDNA3100v2. | 00:10 |
| Random832 | but it's certainly a lot harder to make work than a pc, and like i said i don't think ubuntu mobile is even ready at all yet | 00:10 |
| jrib | shwaiil: I would be surprised if there isn't some compiz plugin for that | 00:10 |
| will3032840 | this is a dev question, cause I need the WDNA3100v2 working for ubuntu ARM. | 00:10 |

| Random832 | you asked for scancodes, not symbols | 00:21 |
| Random832 | try xev (run in X, not console) if you want what X is interpreting as, but you said to find out what scancode it is actually sending | 00:21 |

| === SuBmUnDo is now known as Villar_Roberto | ||
| bean | liveusb: why do you need the root password? ubuntu doesn't have a root user with a password by default. | 00:26 |
| bean | !sudo | liveusb | 00:26 |
| ubottu | liveusb: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 00:26 |
| bean | dblinx: as in windows viruses or bad scripts in linux? | 00:27 |
| scristopher | dblinx, clamav will do the job | 00:27 |
| scristopher | also were the sites php based sites that got hit? | 00:27 |
| bean | dblinx: what scristopher says plus http://www.rfxn.com/projects/linux-malware-detect/ maldet will work well | 00:28 |
| gustavo | bean: windows viruses are made by smart people... bad scripts in linux are made by new or bad users | 00:28 |
| Ben64 | dblinx: depends what you mean by "got hit" | 00:28 |
| filantropus | can someone tell me how i activate the java plug in mozilla firefox? | 00:28 |
| bean | gustavo: not necessarily. | 00:28 |
| dblinx | Scripts | 00:28 |
| scristopher | if they were php based sites that got injected depending on the obfuscation clamav may or may not detect it | 00:28 |
| Ben64 | dblinx: reinstall | 00:28 |
| filantropus | pls | 00:28 |
| bean | you can try running maldet | 00:29 |
| scristopher | dblinx, were these websites that got injected with malware? | 00:29 |
| bean | on it | 00:29 |
| dblinx | Or restore from backup | 00:29 |
| bean | but that'll quarentine all bad files. | 00:29 |
| escott | filantropus, you should be aware there are multiple java zero-days out there in the wild. its not a safe thing to be doing | 00:29 |
| scristopher | or ? | 00:29 |
| dblinx | Yes | 00:29 |
| scristopher | well there is a easy way to find stuff if clamav doesnt | 00:29 |
| Ben64 | if they were able to have a login on the computer, nothing is safe | 00:30 |
| scristopher | find . -name "*.php" | xargs grep base64 --- if it is base64 encoded stuff | 00:30 |
| filantropus | ? | 00:30 |
| dblinx | How... clam found 20 infectioned fikea | 00:30 |
| scristopher | clam should remove the stuff as well | 00:30 |
| scristopher | i like to get the base64 encoded crap and decode it, save it for later study myself | 00:31 |
| filantropus | i'm installing it from the java page | 00:31 |
| escott | filantropus, java is insecure. you should be very wary of using java in a webbrowser | 00:31 |
| Myrtti | escott: some banks in their infinite wisdom require sun java to use their Internet banking systems | 00:31 |
| escott | !openjdk | filantropus | 00:31 |
| escott | !info openjdk | filantropus | 00:31 |
| ubottu | filantropus: Package openjdk does not exist in quantal | 00:31 |
| dblinx | Ill try that... what if its a x86... | 00:31 |
| filantropus | then, how can i run a game that needs java¡ | 00:31 |
| filantropus | ? | 00:31 |
| escott | !info openjdk-7-jre | 00:32 |
| ubottu | openjdk-7-jre (source: openjdk-7): OpenJDK Java runtime, using Hotspot JIT. In component main, is optional. Version 7u9-2.3.4-0ubuntu1.12.10.1 (quantal), package size 220 kB, installed size 682 kB | 00:32 |
| escott | filantropus, ^^^ finally thats the package | 00:32 |
| === mb is now known as Guest52021 | ||
| scristopher | dblinx, are you asking me? | 00:33 |
| escott | Myrtti, the last thing i would call the banking industry is "wise" certainly not infinite ;) | 00:33 |
| dblinx | Yes... | 00:33 |
| scristopher | ... im not sure what you mean by that because i think we are talking about 2 different things | 00:33 |
| daftykins | escott: probably why it's a common non-literal phrase :P | 00:33 |
| scristopher | base64 is the type of encryption alot of malware uses | 00:33 |
| scristopher | if you can find any y ou can decode it | 00:34 |
| filantropus | thanks.. but... how can i install that package... | 00:34 |
| Myrtti | escott: no kidding. my point being that openjdk/icedtea isn't always an option | 00:34 |
| filantropus | sorry, i'm new on this... | 00:34 |
| dblinx | Ok... wil try that and see | 00:34 |
| escott | Myrtti, that doesn't change the recommendation not to use it. | 00:35 |
| scristopher | dblinx, i recommend to use either php to decode base64 or this site http://www.whitefirdesign.com/tools/unobfuscate-php-hack-code.html | 00:35 |
| escott | filantropus, sudo apt-get install package-name | 00:35 |
| escott | !apt | filantropus | 00:35 |
| ubottu | filantropus: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Muon (KDE) or !Apper (KDE) | 00:35 |
| scristopher | if you find base64 code it will break down into plain text as long as its not a base64 encoded image | 00:35 |
| Myrtti | escott: besides, Firefox can be set to allow to run java only on set whitelisted domains. | 00:36 |
| escott | Myrtti, then perhaps you can tell filantropus how to setup that whitelist | 00:38 |

| bean | kouriinu: hmm, i'm not sure what the issue would be. Ususally that happens after you install and grub doesn't install correctly. What OS was on the laptop before? | 00:48 |
| damselfly9 | kouriinu; when you said you tried 3 different cd's, did you download each separately or did you just try using the same iso image three times? | 00:48 |
| escott | tty, is your use of "<" an indication you are asking about bash redirection? | 00:48 |
| scristopher | thats what im wondering | 00:48 |
| kouriinu | i downloaded three seperately | 00:48 |
| kouriinu | and it was windows 7 | 00:48 |
| scristopher | simply writing a file to a directory should be easy, redirecting a file to a directory should be as well | 00:49 |

| tty | Yes. But I want it in a txt but the problem is that I can make a text file that I am trying use tree on. | 00:51 |
| kouriinu | i can not use that because the computer i am trying to put it on does not reconize any os now and the computer i am downloading the iso on isnt windows | 00:52 |

| damselfly9 | weird, almost like the cd lost data almost immediately | 00:56 |
| guest29584 | Can anyone suggest a good place to find some grub2 experts to look at the output of "bootinfoscript" and suggest some grub2 repairs? (I have already posed my question in #grub and am waiting for a response there.) | 00:57 |
| dr_willis | or the drive that burnt it was a little wonky or weak spots on the cd. | 00:57 |
| kouriinu | i have redownloaded and booted the re downloaded iso on another disk | 00:57 |
| escott | filantropus, is it listed in "about:plugins" in firefox? have you restarted firefox | 00:57 |
| kouriinu | and it STILL doesnt work | 00:57 |
| dr_willis | guest29584: the askubuntu.com site and the forums | 00:57 |
| kouriinu | but itll playy other disks fine like itll use the boot repair disk fine just not the ubuntu iso disk | 00:57 |
| dr_willis | kouriinu: try making a bootable usb may be the best thing to try | 00:57 |
| filantropus | i have restarted firefox | 00:57 |
| escott | guest29584, you certainly won't find anyone with grub knowledge here. its not like ubuntu uses grub or anything | 00:57 |
| damselfly9 | oh. just thought of something, what are the chances that the first ubuntu boot that worked wrote some garbage back to the cd because it was being booted in a burner? | 00:58 |
| kouriinu | i will try that but i can figure out how to make it bootable on my usb iv looked at videos but dont understand i guess im techilogically stupid | 00:58 |

| === voja is now known as Solwi | ||
| kouriinu | ok i will try that | 01:00 |

| damselfly9 | WBF; oh, you want someone to write a linux driver for you? | 01:11 |
| Ben64 | i just buy chips that are compatible with linux | 01:12 |
| WBF | damselfly9: yes | 01:12 |
| escott | guest29584, ok... and what is the question | 01:12 |
| damselfly9 | WBF; it won't happen because the programming info for the bcm4323 is not open source | 01:12 |
| WBF | damselfly9: ): I guess I'll never get wifi on my arm device, I'll just throw it out. | 01:13 |
| Ben64 | you can get cheap usb wireless devices for <$10 | 01:13 |
| damselfly9 | WBF; you could get different dongle instead of throwing away you arm device | 01:14 |
| pak | Hi all .. Can any one tell me from which file I can get the current cpu temperature in ubuntu system | 01:14 |
| WBF | damselfly9: well I cannot now that it's out of the box and radioshack's horrible return policy ): | 01:14 |
| guest29584 | escott: Well, after I temporarily installed an old DOS 6.22 drive for troubleshooting and removed it after, grub2 now doesn't seem to find anything bootable. I'm not sure why. I thought the script might help? | 01:14 |
| escott | !info lm-sensors | pak | 01:14 |
| ubottu | pak: lm-sensors (source: lm-sensors): utilities to read temperature/voltage/fan sensors. In component universe, is extra. Version 1:3.3.1-2ubuntu2 (quantal), package size 98 kB, installed size 395 kB | 01:14 |
| Vivekananda | Hello everyone | 01:15 |
| damselfly9 | WBF; then absorve the cost, buy another different dongle and give this one to a friend who uses windows | 01:15 |
| pak | ubottu, Thank you.. par i tried it and this is not able to detect the sensors.. | 01:15 |
| escott | guest29584, what do you mean "installed dos 6.22" was it on another hard disk you attached and then removed? | 01:15 |
| pak | ubottu, I am getting this error.. /sys/bus/pci/devices: No such file or directory at /usr/sbin/sensors-detect line 2900. | 01:16 |
| ubottu | pak: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 01:16 |
| escott | guest29584, also please clarify cant find anything bootable. meaning nothing boots or windows doesnt boot | 01:16 |
| damselfly9 | WBF; a second dongle is probably cheaper than a second arm device | 01:16 |
| pak | ubottu, I want to know he file from where it is reading the temperatures.. | 01:16 |
| ubottu | pak: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 01:16 |
| escott | pak, its not reading from a file | 01:17 |
| guest29584 | escott: As far as I know, everything I did was virtual (on a VirtualBox image of the drive), but there could be a bug, error, problem? | 01:17 |
| pak | escott, So from where it is getting the data ? | 01:17 |
| escott | pak, or at least not all of it. | 01:17 |
| pak | escott, I am currently looking fo the cpu temperature part only.. | 01:18 |
| escott | pak, lots of places. querying the i2c bus for instance | 01:18 |
| escott | pak, find /sys -iname "*temp*" or find /sys -iname "*therm*" | 01:18 |
| escott | pak, how these things work changes depending on what chipset you have | 01:19 |
| pak | I am looking for arm chipset. | 01:19 |
| guest29584 | escott: I don't have the message in front of me, but it is not finding anything to boot, and not coming up with the boot menu. A long sentence about insert boot media I think it said. Not my lengthy grub2 menu. | 01:20 |
| escott | guest29584, is this a message from the bios or from grub's preloader? | 01:20 |
| escott | guest29584, sounds like a message from the bios which suggests you need to go into the bios and confirm the correct boot device is selected | 01:21 |
| Vivekananda | anyone familiar with bash script. It is a quick and simple question. I am just replacing \w the PS1 with \W but it seems not to work . | 01:21 |
| Vivekananda | http://pastebin.com/qawuac9Z | 01:21 |
| guest29584 | escott: I'm not completely sure, It's been a long time since I had to deal with either. Is there a page where I can peruse grub2 messages? | 01:21 |
| === Darth is now known as Guest78261 | ||
| escott | guest29584, grub would never say "insert boot media" so if it says that its the bios | 01:22 |
| pak | escott, Thank you.. I got it .. it reading from /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/temp2_input file.. | 01:22 |

| guest29584 | escott: As far as I know, the correct boot device is selected. I was paraphrasing a long message in a few words. I am running on an Ubuntu live CD now, and I can see, mount, browse, etc. the two drives in question. I tried a simple sudo ubdate-grub, but got "/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?)." | 01:26 |
| escott | guest29584, if you are going to update grub from the livecd you need to chroot first. did you do that? do you know how to do that? your grub.cfg looks ok | 01:26 |
| escott | guest29584, i would write down or take a picture of the error message you are getting so we can figure out exactly where it is coming from | 01:28 |
| guest29584 | escott: Oops, sorry, s/ubdate/update/ No, this is the first time anything like this has happened. Do you have a link? | 01:28 |
| escott | guest29584, i would not waste your time with a chroot just yet | 01:28 |
| guest29584 | escott: OK, I will write the message down if/when I reboot. In the meantime, is there a place where I can look at likely suspect messages from grub2? | 01:29 |
| guest29584 | escott: (Perhaps I can identify it from memory.) | 01:30 |

| joseneto | justmeh : iam | 03:10 |
| kevinmthomas | when i run a portscan 110 and 143 are closed as they are open in the router | 03:10 |
| justmeh | joseneto, cool ;) | 03:10 |
| kevinmthomas | when i remove them from teh router they become stealth again | 03:10 |
| dr_willis | stealth ;) | 03:11 |
| justmeh | kevinmthomas, are you doing port triggering or forwarding? | 03:11 |
| kevinmthomas | well im not sure I am new to this | 03:11 |
| justmeh | triggering might not be so reliable.. | 03:11 |
| kevinmthomas | i belive its port forwarding | 03:11 |
| justmeh | k | 03:11 |
| kevinmthomas | in my cisco router | 03:11 |
| justmeh | is the mail server on your local network? | 03:11 |

| justmeh | k? | 03:12 |
| kevinmthomas | or outlook | 03:12 |
| * justmeh nodds @ kevinmthomas | 03:12 | |
| justmeh | that's not the same though | 03:12 |
| kevinmthomas | so i beleive it is related to the closed ports | 03:12 |
| kevinmthomas | hmmm | 03:13 |
| justmeh | thunderbird or the other is trying to connect to 1.2.4.5:xyz | 03:13 |
| bean | kevinmthomas: well, you need to make sure your forwarding is right in your router. | 03:13 |
| justmeh | when running a mail server its YOURIP:xyz | 03:13 |

| TheLordOfTime | assuming /srv/ exists and needs superuser creation rights. | 03:44 |
| misterswag | thanks TheLordOfTime | 03:44 |
| TheLordOfTime | s/creation/modification/ | 03:44 |
| misterswag | yes it does | 03:44 |
| puff | When I try to install or remove a package, I get an error 'ldconfig' not found in PATH or not executable. | 03:45 |
| puff | https://gist.github.com/a3c3d4eb084dd373c9e2 | 03:45 |
| misterswag | to copy /var/lib/mysql over there TheLordOfTime do i do sudo cp -R -p /var/lib/mysql /srv/mysql? | 03:45 |
| Barfolomew | has anyone gotten emacspeak to work? | 03:45 |
| puff | I'm looking at a forum thread about downloadnig libc and manually extracting ldconfig, but I'd like to understand what went wrong to begin with. | 03:45 |
| TheLordOfTime | misterswag, this is why symlinks exist: you don't need to copy them all over if they exist elsewhere, just set up the symlink with the command i gave you | 03:46 |
| misterswag | oh im trying to move it out of /var/lib | 03:46 |
| misterswag | since its limited space | 03:46 |
| misterswag | :) | 03:46 |
| misterswag | and symlink it back so i dont have to mess with apparmor | 03:46 |
| misterswag | and the configs | 03:46 |
| CryptoSec | craigbass1976: should I use the cupswrapper or LPR driver? It's the first time I came across such a decision for my printer? | 03:47 |
| misterswag | TheLordOfTime, so my objective is copy it out to /srv/ and symlink it back | 03:47 |
| TheLordOfTime | misterswag, erm... i don't advise that, since the mysql executable uses /var/lib/mysql... | 03:47 |
| TheLordOfTime | s/executable/process/ | 03:47 |
| misterswag | yeah so cant i cp it to /srv/mysql | 03:48 |
| misterswag | and symlink it back to /var/lib/mysql | 03:48 |
| TheLordOfTime | misterswag, ideally first, you turn off the mysql process first... | 03:48 |
| misterswag | yes i did | 03:48 |
| TheLordOfTime | misterswag, then sudo mv /var/lib/mysql /srv/mysql | 03:48 |
| TheLordOfTime | then sudo ln -s /srv/mysql /var/lib/mysql | 03:48 |
| TheLordOfTime | but I HIGHLY recommend you don't do that | 03:48 |
| misterswag | will it get messy? | 03:48 |
| TheLordOfTime | misterswag, just because mysql is weirdly tempermental | 03:48 |
| misterswag | i see | 03:49 |
| craigbass1976 | CryptoSec, I can't remember. We have an MFC at work and I don't remember which one I grabbed -- that was three years ago. Anyone else? Is LPR or cupswrapper a better bet to grab from Brother's website? | 03:49 |
| misterswag | TheLordOfTime, currently i have my ssd to mount as /var | 03:50 |
| misterswag | i would just like to give all of /var/lib/mysql to that ssd | 03:50 |
| misterswag | possible? | 03:50 |
| elb0w | So I just upgraded to 12.10. I am getting this issue when I select my headphones and play music from the shell it is not going to them | 03:50 |
| misterswag | that would be my other scenario | 03:50 |
| elb0w | it goes to my speaker instead | 03:50 |
| TheLordOfTime | misterswag, that's going outside my expertise, but i don't think it'd be easy to set up | 03:50 |
| TheLordOfTime | misterswag, especially since /var/* is already there | 03:50 |
| misterswag | yah | 03:50 |
| TheLordOfTime | in fact i think it'd be incredibly hard | 03:51 |
| misterswag | it sounds iffy too | 03:51 |
| misterswag | lol | 03:51 |
| misterswag | all i can do is just use it till it runs out of space | 03:51 |
| misterswag | mysqldump | 03:51 |
| misterswag | and make sure /var has enough space | 03:51 |
| misterswag | lol | 03:51 |
| misterswag | on next install | 03:52 |
| elb0w | nvm fixed it | 03:52 |
| elb0w | good ole pacmd | 03:52 |
| CryptoSec | craigbass1976: I did some Google search and I found that LPR is more command line and cups has more gui front end to it... so it just matters what the user is comfortable and his preference. | 03:52 |
| CryptoSec | and with that... I just answered my own question... | 03:55 |

| dr_willis | good luck finding a full featured linux tablet at this time. | 05:11 |
| cfhowlett | a_b0y, yes nexus is google, but it will run ubuntu | 05:11 |
| crocket | mikemike : That's for C++ or #algorithm. | 05:12 |
| a_b0y | i don't like google | 05:12 |
| mikemike | nobody is on #algorithm | 05:12 |
| dr_willis | they are testing a ubuntu on the nexus 7 | 05:12 |
| crocket | mikemike : You have to be patient. | 05:12 |
| crocket | Give it hours or half a day. | 05:12 |
| crocket | mikemike : Or use stackoverflow | 05:13 |
| crocket | mikemike : You can utilize http://stackexchange.com/ | 05:13 |
| dr_willis | stackoverflow is handy ;) | 05:13 |

| koveras0927 | ha way above me, I'm not really there yet | 05:33 |

| seel_ | someone else's script but yeah, it's for facebook actually | 05:33 |
| dr_willis | I perfer weechat to irssi | 05:33 |

| cfhowlett | Pretty sure the focus is on #phone for the moment. If that works out, we can hope that a portable port will follow - probably the nexus 7 | 05:44 |
| dr_willis | a portable port? ;) | 05:45 |
| koveras0927 | Any reason you wouldn't be able to run the smartphone version on the nexus 7? | 05:45 |
| tim_ | hello | 05:46 |
| tim_ | i have a question about what type of linux to use on a netbook | 05:47 |
| penguinman | cfhowlett: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1571847/ | 05:47 |
| koveras0927 | depends on the netbook | 05:47 |
| lud | I got a chrome netbook, the 200$ one, any advise on installing ubuntu? | 05:47 |
| koveras0927 | I think that was mentioned earlier, one sec. | 05:48 |
| cfhowlett | penguinman, thank you. Will see if I can drill under the firewall ... | 05:48 |
| penguinman | cfhowlett: ugh, i hear that thing is beastly. | 05:48 |
| tim_ | koveras0927: acer aspier 1 with 1 gig of ram running intel core atom@1.5ghz with a 320 gig HD | 05:49 |
| cfhowlett | penguinman, it has it's moments. Interestingly, the easiest exploit to configure was facebook. twitter and youtube are pretty well locked down. | 05:50 |
| donnie | True or false. I run Xunbuntu. and I want to remove Thunderbird. Since I'm on Xubuntu. It's safe to "remove xfce desktop' and my xubuntu will be untouched | 05:50 |
| penguinman | donnie: yeah, it's just a meta package | 05:50 |
| flashtonic32 | i | 05:51 |
| koveras0927 | tim_: I'd say you should stick with xubuntu or lubuntu | 05:52 |
| donnie | penguinman: So it is completely safe. Cause I'm reading a forum that says let it uninstall the xubuntu-desktop... and really nothing will be lost at all everything will work and functon the same | 05:53 |
| === truexfan81 is now known as truexfan81_ | ||
| tim_ | koveras0927: ive looked into xbuntu but not lubuntu. whats better in your oppion | 05:53 |
| === truexfan81_ is now known as truexfan81 | ||
| koveras0927 | I really like xubuntu myself but have only played around with lubuntu a little bit, not enough to form an unbiased opinion, sorry | 05:55 |
| tim_ | easy to install? | 05:55 |
| cfhowlett | tim_, sudo apt-get install lubuntu | 05:56 |
| koveras0927 | yeah it's easy, about as easy as any regular ubuntu installation | 05:56 |
| Noskcaj | cfhowlett, isn't it: sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop? | 05:56 |
| Noskcaj | or lubuntu-core | 05:57 |
| cfhowlett | Noskcaj, errr ... I think it's desktop. Thanks. | 05:57 |
| Noskcaj | cfhowlett, np. | 05:57 |
| tim_ | im still on windows 7 | 05:57 |
| tim_ | just plannig what to do a dual boot with | 05:58 |
| Noskcaj | tim_, both have pro's and con's. but please don't use windows 8 | 05:58 |
| cfhowlett | Noskcaj, help me out ... | 05:58 |
| koveras0927 | windows 8 makes me sad. | 05:58 |
| Noskcaj | cfhowlett, yeah, what | 05:58 |
| cfhowlett | tim_, if you don't have to go windows 9, don't | 05:58 |
| Noskcaj | koveras0927, let's hope windows blue fixes that | 05:58 |
| cfhowlett | Noskcaj, please state the correct command for tim_ to get lubuntu DE | 05:58 |
| tim_ | XD i would kill windows on my netbook but i need it for school | 05:59 |
| koveras0927 | from windows i don't think there is one, just download it from the xubuntu website, use unetbootin to install it to a flash drive, and boot off the flash drive | 05:59 |
| Noskcaj | tim_, install either lubuntu-desktop (all of the stuff from the iso) or lubuntu-core (just the DE (i think)) | 05:59 |
| koveras0927 | or lubunu | 06:00 |
| Noskcaj | koveras0927, Wubi? | 06:00 |
| Noskcaj | koveras0927, use LiLi instead, it's better | 06:00 |
| tim_ | oh right. for linux you can mix and match | 06:00 |
| cfhowlett | Noskcaj, there it is. sudo apt-get install lxde | 06:00 |
| koveras0927 | Noskaj: I've never actually used LiLi, then again I usually go with straight ubuntu | 06:00 |
| Noskcaj | koveras0927, it's windows only, probably the best usb maker there is | 06:01 |
| koveras0927 | Noskaj Actually I think I've used this before, I only found unetbootin when my cd drive broke back in 08 | 06:01 |
| === nuxninja is now known as jamaican-brotha | ||
| tim_ | noted. ive got to use a usb key to install what ever i end up using | 06:02 |
| koveras0927 | tim_ try using both, whatever you can get working first, but it's not hard. | 06:03 |
| koveras0927 | tim_ have you ever set up a dual boot before? | 06:03 |
| tim_ | im kind of a noob when it comes to linux install | 06:03 |
| tim_ | and no | 06:03 |
| jamaican-brotha | unetbootin is a piece of cake...just experiment | 06:04 |
| koveras0927 | so your chromebook is running windows 7 you said? | 06:04 |
| tim_ | netbook* but yes | 06:04 |
| jamaican-brotha | tim_ nothing to worry just take ur time | 06:04 |
| koveras0927 | do you know how to shrink your windows partition to allow space to install linux? | 06:05 |
| tim_ | no i dont. | 06:05 |
| tim_ | okay i know nothing about linux install | 06:05 |
| === zhurai-tsuki is now known as zhurai | ||
| koveras0927 | right click computer, click manage, and go to disk management. Right click your main windows partition C: and click shrink | 06:05 |
| koveras0927 | then you just put in the size in MB that you want your linux partition to be, I'd say 40 would be fine for just learning how to use it | 06:06 |
| koveras0927 | 40GB, not MB | 06:06 |
| tim_ | okay | 06:07 |
| koveras0927 | then after you shrink your partition you'll have free space for linux, use unetbootin/LiLi to make a bootable usb drive and boot off of it, then it's pretty self explanatory from there | 06:07 |
| tim_ | okay thanks | 06:08 |
| tim_ | ill make sure i do a full backup first | 06:08 |
| koveras0927 | Good idea :D | 06:08 |
| koveras0927 | when you click install lubuntu or whatever ubuntu distro you're installing, click the option saying install alongside windows, it will keep both windows and linux and let you choose what to boot when you start up next time | 06:09 |
| tim_ | okay thanks for all the help! | 06:09 |

| jbud | Hey #ubuntu, I'd like to set a few hotkeys, as well as remove some pre-set hotkeys from here (12.04), but under Settings->Keyboard->Shortcuts I'm unable to remove some hotkeys, and also I cannot use certain keys in the bindings for my own (anything with Alt and PrintScreen). I also tried using gconf-editor but it seemed to bug up when I tried adding my own customs | 06:24 |
| jbud | TL;DR, how can I access the hotkeys file? Where is that stored? I'd like to add and remove these settings manually | 06:25 |

| LiThiuME3 | Im quite the new indeed at linux | 06:36 |
| LiThiuME3 | its my first VPS | 06:36 |
| LiThiuME3 | started a week ago | 06:37 |
| jbud | Really/ How are you enjoying things so far? | 06:37 |
| guideX | there's a weird clicking problem i've noticed in ubuntuy | 06:37 |
| guideX | ubuntu | 06:37 |
| LiThiuME3 | I like the challange and the head banging part of it :P | 06:37 |
| guideX | where you must click three times sometimes | 06:37 |
| guideX | in the folders | 06:37 |
| jbud | Love Linux :) I'll be trying out Arch when I get my PC fixed up next week | 06:37 |
| cfhowlett | guideX, on 12.10? | 06:37 |
| LiThiuME3 | jbud no GUI ssh only | 06:37 |
| guideX | hmm I don't know, i will check | 06:38 |
| guideX | (sorry lame windows user) | 06:38 |
| jbud | lol | 06:38 |
| jbud | Damn you Windows users! | 06:38 |

| === xubuntu is now known as Guest98145 | ||
| jbud | guideX: pretty sure I had a similar issue when I started, I went to settings -> mouse/touchpad and played with the settings | 06:39 |
| cfhowlett | guideX, system>settings mousepad is where you should look | 06:39 |
| jbud | LiThiuME3: Really? Are you into any scripting at all? | 06:39 |
| guideX | hmm ok | 06:39 |
| LiThiuME3 | Still having problem with my deluge and other stuff I want to figure out if I can setup a dns server on my box also I need to find what runs my ftp server | 06:39 |
| guideX | I would be happy with just a click, or two clicks.. thanks | 06:40 |
| LiThiuME3 | jbud no not really I need to learn bash | 06:40 |
| jbud | That's what completely sold it for me. I love being able to build scripts so easily with the huge range of tools | 06:40 |
| guideX | also.. | 06:40 |
| guideX | is there anything exactly like notepad? | 06:40 |
| jbud | LiThiuME3: Bash is super easy to pickup :) tldp | 06:40 |
| jbud | guideX: gedit | 06:40 |
| cfhowlett | guideX, exactly like? no. Similar to? absolutely | 06:40 |
| guideX | I'm pretty slow and shakey with it | 06:40 |
| guideX | I perfer regular old notepad for php stuff.. | 06:40 |
| LiThiuME3 | learn a new command that is my fav now lol pgrep | 06:40 |
| Ciphoenix | better than notepad IMHO | 06:41 |
| guideX | well i could do vi i guess | 06:41 |
| jbud | Love vim | 06:41 |
| guideX | nothing is better than notepad, except visual studio ofc | 06:41 |
| guideX | well for me.. | 06:41 |
| jbud | guideX: I wrote a wiki on vim if you want for a reference: http://wiki.jbud.me/index.php?title=Vim | 06:41 |
| LiThiuME3 | jbud need to learn vim to I read that Its superior to nano once you konw how to use it :P | 06:41 |
| jbud | After reading through the documentation | 06:42 |
| jbud | vim is awesome I love it | 06:42 |
| guideX | also... if I want to have ubuntu, but without the terrible new interface in 12, is there an option or | 06:42 |
| guideX | but without "fooling around" with it | 06:42 |
| Ciphoenix | you mean notepad++? | 06:42 |
| kepler | guideX, i use kubuntu | 06:42 |
| guideX | ok | 06:43 |
| LiThiuME3 | jbud do you know why when I creat a new user on my box it only have > when it log in SSH and not username@this: | 06:43 |
| jbud | LiThiuME3: I'm still trying to get things figured out though. Like matching the intellisense to netbeans for Java or Visual Studio for .NET | 06:43 |
| jbud | LiThiuME3: You're in something right now | 06:43 |
| jbud | Like, a program or something | 06:44 |
| jbud | Basically its waiting for you to type something else | 06:44 |
| jbud | its like, if you were in bash and you said: while true; do | 06:44 |
| jbud | its waiting for you give more | 06:44 |
| jbud | Try ctrl+d | 06:44 |
| LiThiuME3 | kk 1 min | 06:44 |

| kepler | not sure boss would be happy about running fiber to a workstation...and stealing one of the cards from a server | 06:53 |
| LiThiuME3 | hahaha | 06:54 |

| afotek | Hello. I want to dual boot Windows and Ubuntu. How do I prepare a partition for Ubuntu before installing Windows? As I understand, it's better to install Windows first. Do I make an extended partition or plain ext3 partition? | 07:38 |
| theadmin | _raven: If so, likely. | 07:38 |
| jbud | I found Chrome to be really awkward and buggy on linux, so I swapped to Firefox | 07:38 |
| arshavin | BlackWeb: that's really strange have you tried gparted or cfdisk? | 07:38 |
| guideX | jbud there was like two whole pages | 07:38 |
| kyo | ext3 allowed | 07:38 |
| BlackWeb | First it only showed it as /dev/sda, Went ahead `parted -a optimal /dev/sda` Table: gpt and then while it was making partition errored out so exited and now its showing it as 2 devices so now trying to mkfs.ext3 -v -l "" /dev/sde1 and it looks like it just worked, but how am I suppose to tell it to mount | 07:38 |

| afotek | theadmin: Is it possible to leave 50 Gb of unpartitioned space before Windows partition? | 07:39 |
| arshavin | BlackWeb: it may be because of that gpt thing which is different fro normal mbr | 07:39 |

| justmeh | link me to the page your following | 07:40 |
| justmeh | nvm | 07:40 |

| justmeh | why don't you type that into google saju_m lol | 07:41 |
| theadmin | afotek: From what I've experienced the partitioning in the Windows installer makes that kind of hard. It's easy to leave space after it, though, but are you sure 50GB is enough? Doesn't sound like a lot | 07:41 |
| arshavin | BlackWeb: is it internal or external | 07:41 |
| justmeh | http://goo.gl/W300D | 07:41 |

| keshav | ?? | 07:44 |
| keshav | can anyone help me out >> | 07:44 |
| keshav | ?? | 07:44 |

| lud | ask buddy | 07:44 |
| Guest60313 | arshavin: i would like to make a bootlable usb so i can try it out never used anything beside ubuntu kubuntu or xubuntu thought i would open my horizons a bit | 07:44 |
| theadmin | Guest60313: Yeah if you never used anything but Ubuntu Arch is gonna be very hard for you | 07:45 |
| nearst | try remastersys | 07:45 |
| keshav | I am quite new to cloud computing and I wanted to make a private cloud just for getting a hang of it. so which platform should i use for it ? | 07:45 |
| afotek | theadmin: I thought it'll be fine: configs are stored on system partitions and user data is stored on NTFS partition. | 07:45 |
| arshavin | Guest60313: you just do dd if=x.iso of=/dev/sdx bs=4M | 07:45 |
| Guest60313 | theadmin: well looking for way to force me to increase my knowlege on linux and this looks like what i think im looking for | 07:45 |
| keshav | openstack opennebula cloudstack ?? | 07:45 |
| theadmin | afotek: Well, depends on what you mean as "user data" | 07:45 |
| theadmin | Guest60313: Heh, might be better to go with Gentoo then :P | 07:46 |

| nearst | Dave77, xorg :P | 07:46 |
| Guest60313 | theadmin: i was looking into that but from most of the reviews sites say arch is easier | 07:46 |
| saju_m | keshav: try this http://fosshelp.blogspot.in/2013/01/howto-install-openstack-using-devstack.html | 07:47 |
| kostkon_ | neither | 07:47 |
| Dave77 | I mean how difficult can it be for large games company to include linux binary/setup on the DVD? | 07:47 |
| theadmin | Guest60313: Easier to install? Not really, just faster (less compiling). Easier to use? Heck no, it breaks with almost every update. | 07:47 |
| kostkon_ | the dirextx equivalent is SDL | 07:47 |
| arshavin | Guest60313: what crap arch is easy only after you have high speed internet a few tutorials and lots of stet | 07:47 |
| Aziroshin | Are there CDs that won't be able to contain the ubuntu image? | 07:47 |

| Aziroshin | The Ubuntu image is 763, and wodim complains. -overburn doesn't help | 07:48 |

| Guest60313 | still and will allways be diehard ubuntu fan i got a galaxy nexus just to be the first to try out ubuntu mobile and have a nexus 7 with ubuntu 13.04 | 07:50 |
| arshavin | Guest60313: if you want try something different then arch is ok | 07:50 |
| Alocer | :P | 07:50 |
| Aziroshin | theadmin: I dd the iso onto the raw usb stick and it will work, yes? | 07:50 |
| arshavin | Guest60313: but they need to provide offline installation media for it to be accepted by everyone | 07:51 |
| Alocer | Aziroshin: theadmin: i think u should make the usb bootable | 07:51 |
| lud | @antonio_ ubuntu should install the drivers right away. | 07:51 |
| theadmin | Aziroshin: Yeah, something along the lines of: sudo dd if=~/Downloads/ubuntu-12.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso of=/dev/sdb | 07:51 |
| afotek | kyo: and what software can I use for that? | 07:51 |
| antonio_ | lud: it didn't | 07:51 |

| Aziroshin | theadmin: I will just do that, thanks. | 07:51 |
| Aziroshin | Awesome@hybrid | 07:51 |

| Aziroshin | Yeah, I love that dding it over works out of the box, I didn't know that. | 07:52 |
| nearst | dd is fun im guess | 07:52 |
| arshavin | Guest60313: check your usb drive device name by typing "sudo fdisk -l" and replace of=/dev/sdx | 07:52 |
| afotek | theadmin: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS "Attributes: Read-only, hidden, system, archive, not content indexed, off-line, temporary, compressed" | 07:52 |
| theadmin | afotek: I don't think the Linux NTFS implementation cares for any of those. After all, hidden files in Linux must have names starting with a ".", "system" is a purely Windows thing, and there's no permission implementation for NTFS that's POSIX-compatible so no "read-only" either. | 07:53 |
| arshavin | nearst: amazing utility if you know how to use it,but terrible if you don't | 07:53 |

| theadmin | Em_: Er. Run "sudo apt-get update". | 08:17 |
| Em_ | theadmin: what was wrong? | 08:17 |
| theadmin | Em_: Likely you're missing the package index. Happens if it's a new install. | 08:18 |

| theadmin | Em_: Or if it's a LiveCD or such | 08:18 |
| theadmin | antonio_: Damn. Well I'm out of ideas | 08:18 |
| Em_ | theadmin: what is the package index for? | 08:18 |
| antonio_ | this is so goddamn annoying | 08:18 |
| theadmin | Em_: Basically it's a list of packages and where to get them from, it's created by "sudo apt-get update" | 08:18 |
| antonio_ | I have so much work to do...and I don't need to be dealing with such minor b.s. | 08:19 |
| Em_ | so the command "sudo apt-get update" updates my kernel and gives it the information or the list of packages wher eto get softwares from, right? | 08:19 |
| spikeb | it gives updated packages, yes | 08:20 |

| dr_willis | wireless or wired? | 08:33 |

| warl0k | why would I reboot? | 08:34 |
| warl0k | it's Linux. | 08:34 |
| zenu | @war10k Have you tested the ethernet cable with a loop test/ another computer? | 08:34 |
| dr_willis | you said post-boot... | 08:34 |
| warl0k | short of changing a core portion of the kernel, there's never a need to reboot. | 08:34 |
| dr_willis | so it does it on ever bootup? | 08:34 |
| warl0k | on bootup there is a window of maybe 5 seconds where it will respond to ping. | 08:34 |
| warl0k | then as services start up, bye-bye goes the network connection. | 08:35 |

| bekks | Knight2000: It does not depend on which program you are using. | 09:19 |
| auronandace | Knight2000: not more than 4 primary partitions no, but one of your primary partitions can be an extended partition into which you can put several logical partitions | 09:19 |

| auronandace | Knight2000: a logical partition is inside an extended one | 09:21 |

| BillyZane2 | hi | 09:25 |
| bekks | Knight2000: Using gparted, you can move your partitions without formatting them, but you should create a backup before. | 09:25 |
| auronandace | Knight2000: then you need to get rid of one of your primary partitions to put an extended partition in its place then you can put logical partitions inside that | 09:26 |

| kostkon | antonio_, apt-cache policy broadcom-sta-source | 09:27 |
| auronandace | bekks: an extended partition is a container for logical partitions, so you can't convert a primary into an extended without getting rid of all its contents | 09:27 |
| auronandace | Knight2000: then you either need to get another harddrive or use a vm | 09:28 |

| macsim | hi, I got a graphic bug with nividia GTX 560 Ti, after a time I got a black square on top left of my screen who allways stay over everything here is the screenshot : http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/5608/cran26012013104002.png any idea ? thanks (I'm on 12.10) | 09:46 |
| antonio_ | I'm at a complete loss right now as to what to do | 09:47 |
| antonio_ | working! | 09:49 |
| antonio_ | thanks koson! | 09:49 |
| kostkon | antonio_, how?! | 09:49 |
| antonio_ | I went to software sources and applied the changes.. | 09:49 |
| kevin_ | my nautilus seams to have major problem with samba shares. It stops download after a few minutes. There is no problem when I use smbget... Does anyone know if you can do something to get it to work better? | 09:50 |
| antonio_ | not sure what caused the change... | 09:50 |
| kostkon | antonio_, there was a driver listed there and you activated it? | 09:50 |
| antonio_ | yeah | 09:50 |
| antonio_ | I tried activating it before and it didn't work | 09:50 |
| kostkon | antonio_, i think installing the firmware helped a little :P | 09:50 |
| antonio_ | ;) | 09:50 |
| antonio_ | now I need to install kdenlive from source :( | 09:51 |
| kostkon | antonio_, why from source? | 09:51 |
| antonio_ | isn't from source usually better? | 09:51 |
| antonio_ | ie, more stable? | 09:51 |
| spikeb | no | 09:51 |
| antonio_ | spikeb: do you use kdenlive? | 09:52 |
| spikeb | no, but generally speaking, using the distribution's packages is the best idea. | 09:52 |
| antonio_ | I'm having a problem with kdenlive where a ton of the rendering profiles aren't available | 09:52 |
| kostkon | antonio_, they have a ppa if you want to use that, do it bu all means. it's an "official" ppa http://kdenlive.org/download-ubuntu | 09:53 |
| antonio_ | koston: will that one be better than the one thats already in the package manager? | 09:54 |
| === daniel is now known as Guest97108 | ||
| === altair is now known as Guest93731 | ||
| antonio_ | koson: on http://kdenlive.org/download-development#script they talk about a development package for kdenlive. Would it be unwise to use a development version? | 09:58 |
| kostkon | antonio_, not the unstable versiosn. the url i gave you was for the stable one | 09:59 |
| kostkon | antonio_, but it says on the page: "Versions of Kdenlive in official repositories are deprecated. It is strongly recommended to install Kdenlive 0.9 packages using Sunab's alternative repository" | 10:00 |
| coz_ | hey guys, 12.04 screen flickering with kernel update, without nvidia driver, with nvidia driver screens goes black then back to normal when opening any application,,, any ideaas? | 10:00 |
| kostkon | antonio_, so, why not, just use the ppa. you'll get an update everytime there is a new version out, hopefully | 10:00 |

| txomon | which is the difference between using apache-prefork-dev and apache-threaded-dev? | 10:08 |
| bekks | The threading model being used. | 10:09 |
| bekks | The first uses forks, the second threads. | 10:09 |
| txomon | bekks, but by default, which is used? | 10:09 |
| bekks | txomon: I think it is prefork, but I'm not that sure about it. | 10:10 |
| Petrov | hmm, i have installed win 8 and now i'll install ubuntu (dual boot, on the same hdd), but ubuntu can only see my hdd and not the partitions? | 10:12 |
| txomon | bekks seems that Apache HTTP Server - high speed threaded model | 10:12 |
| txomon | is the one used | 10:12 |
| bekks | txomon: The term "threading model" applies to both methods. | 10:13 |

| ioria | alimj: that's interesting tx | 12:01 |
| Mrokii | theadmin: And if I don't want to wait for 13.04? | 12:04 |
| Mrokii | theadmin: Maybe I found an answer myself. There seems to be a repository for Qt5. | 12:05 |
| k1l | Mrokii: if you want it for ubuntu-phone the get-started guide mentions a PPA: http://developer.ubuntu.com/get-started/gomobile/ | 12:06 |
| megha | if i am having .xinitrc file, how can i execute it ? | 12:06 |
| megha | because in there, there are few commands to be executed before the dwm starts. | 12:07 |
| k1l | megha: restart the dm? | 12:07 |
| megha | conversely where can i put those command that are there in .xinitrc file ? | 12:07 |
| theadmin | Mrokii: Installing an unsupported Qt version can likely break Qt apps. You've been warned. | 12:07 |
| jrib | megha: how do you login/ | 12:07 |
| megha | k1l: but if we are using login manager you can't use .xinitrc file | 12:07 |
| Mrokii | k1l: I was just interested in Qt5 in general. | 12:07 |
| Mrokii | theadmin: Okay, thanks. | 12:08 |
| megha | jrib: still i have to disable the login manager and execute the .xinitrc script. | 12:08 |
| jrib | megha: is that what you want to do? | 12:08 |
| megha | jrib: if there is another way round than it's more better. keeping the login manager and also executing commands in .xinitrc script | 12:09 |
| k1l | megha: so you want a autostart for programs? | 12:09 |
| jrib | megha: create a ~/.xsession (instead of ~/.xinitrc) and use "user xsession" session in your login manager | 12:10 |
| g0tcha | hey guys, how can i check if im running the latest version of a package in ubuntu server? | 12:10 |
| theadmin | k1l: Most desktop environments read commands in ~/.config/autostart, will that do? | 12:10 |
| theadmin | megha: Sorry, the above was for you | 12:10 |
| jrib | g0tcha: apt-get update && apt-cache policy PACKAGE | 12:10 |
| theadmin | megha: Or what jrib says | 12:10 |
| megha | wow 2 options in hand :) | 12:11 |
| g0tcha | jrib, thanks.. i have znc 0.206 installed, and when i check it says package 1.0 for ubuntu is there, but it doesnt want to update to it | 12:11 |
| k1l | theadmin: im not sure about that | 12:11 |
| g0tcha | keeps telling me i have the latest verison.. any idea? | 12:11 |
| Mrokii | theadmin: I wanted to try out this repo, btw: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-qt5-edgers/+archive/qt5-proper | 12:12 |
| jrib | g0tcha: show the output of « apt-cache policy znc » and your attempt at upgrading it in a pastebin please | 12:12 |
| k1l | g0tcha: maybe need to run a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade? | 12:12 |
| theadmin | k1l: Well, it's more of a folder with .desktop files with Exec= lines, but all in all that does what it needs to do, run programs on login. | 12:12 |
| g0tcha | jrib, alright, one sec | 12:12 |
| megha | jrib: what you meant was instead of .xinitrc file create .xsession file and from the login manager select user xsession right ? | 12:12 |
| jrib | megha: yes | 12:14 |
| g0tcha | jrib, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1572524/ | 12:14 |
| theadmin | Mrokii: Well, go ahead -- just if it breaks don't blame me :P | 12:14 |
| k1l | theadmin: i think /etc/xdg/autostart/ should work, too, with the .desktop files | 12:14 |

| jrib | megha: (see the first answer although it is wrong about ".xinitrc") | 12:25 |

| megha | i have to create xsession file in /etc/X11 | 12:28 |
| theadmin | badday: You can change desktop environments on the login screen. The officially supported ones by Ubuntu are Unity, KDE, Xfce and LXDE. | 12:29 |
| theadmin | badday: You can install those from the repos. | 12:30 |
| === Mi-- is now known as Mi` | ||
| badday | theadmin: yeah, I know, but currently I have only the core installed and therefore no graphical UI and therefore no login screen | 12:30 |
| jrib | megha: no, what that first answer says is what I do. But he mentions that it will execute .xinitrc and that is wrong. It will execute ~/.xsession | 12:30 |
| megha | ya correct | 12:31 |
| AtumT | badday, and gnome | 12:31 |
| badday | AtumT, theadmin: is there not also a dpkg-command? | 12:31 |
| megha | jrib: should i place all of my commands into /etc/X11/xsession ? | 12:33 |
| jrib | megha: no... | 12:33 |

| megha | jrib: so how can i do autostart from programs in window managers ? | 12:34 |

| jrib | megha: use ~/.xsession and select the session you just created in your login manager | 12:34 |

| auronandace | !aptitude | ioria | 12:37 |
| ubottu | ioria: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. You may encounter problems on multiarch installs (11.10 and higher) as aptitude cannot currently handle the same package with different architectures being installed at the same time.

| bekks | markaum: Because it isnt supported :) | 12:42 |
| markaum | bekks: I know, we use RHEL for our servers, but we are trying to change the OS that the dev team is using | 12:42 |
| bekks | markaum: Which will lead to an totally unsupported environment which leads to the loss of support by ORacle. Best advice: Dont do it. | 12:43 |
| markaum | bekks: We develop software using the Oracle ADF Framework, and we have to use JDeveloper. Using JDev on windows is frustrating, crashes a lot | 12:45 |

| mangoix | ThinkT510: why shouldnt keylogger be virus? caouse it is a smaller version of virus, that calls for a trojan. | 14:18 |
| bekks | mangoix: Because a keyloagger does not spread itself. | 14:19 |
| sote | only issue I was having earlier was in Gnome Classic... Couldn't change the clock from 24-hour to AM/PM even though in the advanced settings it said it changed but the clock still showed 24-hour format :( so I logged out of Gnome Classic and into Gnome | 14:19 |
| TomyLobo | 8. Ownership of the means of production is in the hands of the workers | 14:19 |
| TomyLobo | :D | 14:19 |
| mangoix | bekks: no matter. btw, yes it can spread itself too. | 14:19 |
| mangoix | if it want to | 14:19 |
| ThinkT510 | mangoix: a virus does damage to the system, a keyloger collects keystrokes, at best its spyware not a virus | 14:19 |
| mangoix | ThinkT510: it diffrent from time to time, it could damage your system at same time too. | 14:20 |
| sote | I thought all computers kept a log of the keys that have been pressed/ typed | 14:21 |
| TomyLobo | that would be insane | 14:21 |
| ThinkT510 | mangoix: spyware just collects information and can pass it on, thats it, anywho this is getting offtopic | 14:21 |
| vulte | could I get some help..Odd text and wallpaper pixelation is occurring on my 12.10 install. It could be associated with my amd radeon card | 14:21 |
| sote | I didn't like 12.10 went back to 12.04 | 14:22 |
| mangoix | ThinkT510: but it could also damage your system at same time. | 14:22 |
| ThinkT510 | mangoix: no, it collects information, please stop this discussion now | 14:22 |
| DWSR | Anyone that can help me with initializing a storage brick on GlusterFS with pre-existing data? | 14:23 |

| nuxninja | hi | 14:25 |
| TomyLobo | "virus", "keylogger" and "trojan" are distinct categories of malware, that may or may not come bundled in one package. malware from each of these categories is detected by one or another program commonly referred to as "antivirus". can we agree on that? | 14:25 |
| wector | Strike | 14:25 |
| nuxninja | vulte install amd driver | 14:25 |

| vulte | nuxninja: i'll give that a shot. thanks | 14:26 |
| TomyLobo | vulte err | 14:26 |
| TomyLobo | it might be hard to get rid of | 14:26 |
| vulte | how do you mean? | 14:26 |
| TomyLobo | make sure it has a clean uninstall | 14:26 |
| mangoix | TomyLobo: thats what i said. :) | 14:26 |
| mangoix | leave it now.. | 14:27 |
| TomyLobo | you said a keylogger is a smaller version of a virus, which is that pissed ThinkT510 off | 14:27 |

| mangoix | so leave it now and stfu.. | 14:28 |
| TomyLobo | can be != is. it's subset vs equivalence. | 14:29 |

| zimbo | has anyone used trisquel, on a desktop and server in a small office? how does it compare with ubuntu? | 14:34 |
| zimbo | in general | 14:34 |
| TomyLobo | anyway, back to my original question: why does that !av factoid (unqualifiedly) say that linux doesn't need an antivirus, when a keylogger installed on a sudo-root-capable account can compromise your entire system? | 14:34 |
| ThinkT510 | zimbo: best asked in ##linux | 14:34 |
| nuxninja | vulte check askubuntu.com and similar sites it should be pretty straightforward | 14:34 |
| zimbo | ThinkT510 ok | 14:34 |
| DWSR | TomyLobo: Because a keylogger isn't a virus. | 14:35 |
| mangoix | sote: leave it now child. this is off topic | 14:35 |
| DWSR | TomyLobo: a keylogger can be installed by a virus. | 14:35 |
| vulte | nuxninja: will do. appreciate the assistance. :) | 14:35 |
| sote | people come here for help, not your abuse | 14:35 |
| mangoix | DWSR: OFF TOPIC; LEAVE IT! | 14:35 |
| TomyLobo | 1. so an antivirus would detect the virus | 14:35 |
| DWSR | Anyone here use GlusterFS? I'm wondering if it's possible to initialize a storage brick with data already existing | 14:35 |
| nuxninja | any time bro.....i nearly got banned once | 14:35 |
| DJones | sote: mangoix Leave it, drop the discussion | 14:35 |
| DWSR | mangoix: Lose the caps please and thank you. | 14:35 |
| TomyLobo | 2. an antivirus might also detect the keylogger itself | 14:35 |
| === slank_away is now known as slank | ||
| mangoix | DWSR: No. Leave it! | 14:36 |
| mangoix | DJones: ok this guys go on and on.. | 14:36 |
| zimbo | wow the ubuntu community isn't that friendly, i guess shuttleworth and his lemmings are just about making money hey? | 14:36 |
| DJones | TomyLobo: You'd still need to input a password before the keylogger could run, if you're not sure what you're installing, you probably shouldn't install it anyway | 14:36 |
| sgo11 | anyone use easytag? I just use easytag to remove the picture from mp3 file. but the file size is unchanged. how come? | 14:36 |
| mangoix | DJones + | 14:37 |
| TomyLobo | DJones you mean it's impossible to log your own keys with user rights? | 14:37 |
| DWSR | sgo11: Because of mp3 headers and padding. | 14:37 |
| zimbo | i could write a key logger in c in about an hour lol not that difficult | 14:37 |
| DWSR | sgo11: The picture was removed, but the space has been left so that the file does not need to be completely rewritten if you add a new picture of similar, or smaller size. | 14:37 |
| mangoix | DWSR: A keylogger may be a virus as well. thats the fact! so leave it now.. | 14:37 |
| sote | topic is dropped, moving on too see what others need help with! | 14:37 |
| TomyLobo | zimbo could it log user A's keys if run as user A? | 14:38 |
| DWSR | sgo11: There should be a way to remove padding from files in easytag. | 14:38 |
| zimbo | what? | 14:38 |
| DJones | TomyLobo: You could do that in your own user environment, but without it being installed with admin rights, what could it do with it | 14:38 |
| zimbo | of course | 14:38 |
| sgo11 | DWSR, I want to delete that space too. how can I do that? The picture is mis-added with very big resolution. let me check easytag settings... | 14:38 |
| sote | Djones, Thankyou, have a nice night/day | 14:38 |
| TomyLobo | DJones "own user environment"? like a box in a box? :) | 14:39 |
| TomyLobo | and i don't know what something can and can't do with admin rights, with respect to logging keys. that's why i'm asking :) | 14:39 |
| zimbo | it would log your passwords for example | 14:40 |
| zimbo | like you bank info | 14:40 |
| zimbo | etc | 14:40 |
| TomyLobo | or your own password which you enter into sudo | 14:40 |
| DJones | TomyLobo: Its probably a better conversation to have in #ubuntu-offtopic, thats more for general discussion like that | 14:40 |
| Jpmh | I have a bootable usb stick from which I have made many systems - usually I get a choice of installing alongside the existing Windoze - on HP Compaq machines I do not get this - is this becuase they have setup too few partitions | 14:40 |
| === slank is now known as slank_away | ||
| TomyLobo | DJones we're at a conclusion anyway, i think. will you follow? since you seem to have the power to change that factoid :) | 14:41 |
| ThinkT510 | TomyLobo: in the vast majority of cases malware is nothing to worry about on linux unless you frequently download things from sources you don't trust | 14:41 |
| DJones | TomyLobo: Are you ok with a pm? | 14:41 |
| TomyLobo | sure | 14:41 |
| TomyLobo | not by everyone. go away mangoix | 14:42 |

| sgo11 | DWSR, I really don't find a way to remove the padding space of id3 tag from mp3. do you know how to do that? or which key words should I google for? thanks. | 14:49 |
| ThinkT510 | sote: better to forget | 14:49 |
| DWSR | sgo11: Not really sure. | 14:49 |
| Jpmh | sote: if the threats are real you should pass them immediately to your local Police Department | 14:50 |
| DWSR | Jpmh: Probably just an ITG. | 14:50 |
| sgo11 | DWSR, I did search remove padding, but no luck. let me do more search then. thanks. :) | 14:50 |

| nearst | sgo11, try sudo apt-get install easytag | 14:51 |
| sgo11 | nearst, the problem is caused by using easytag. :) | 14:51 |
| DWSR | Jpmh: With the only problem being the fact that you have no idea who they are in real life. | 14:51 |
| DWSR | Jpmh: Still, this is OT. | 14:51 |

| Jpmh | DWSR: I assure you that the logs are sufficient that if the PD follows up it can all be traced | 14:52 |
| ThinkT510 | LiquidDemocracy: firefox has likely disabled your java plugin | 14:52 |
| DWSR | LiquidDemocracy: It should be installed by default, but https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxPlugins should help you | 14:52 |
| sgo11 | nearst, yeah, but I can not find one which can remove the picture and its space. easytag removes the picture, but the size of mp3 is unchanged. it keeps the picture space there. | 14:52 |
| DWSR | LiquidDemocracy: Also, that. | 14:52 |
| LiquidDemocracy | thx | 14:53 |
| sgtkilljoy | LiquidDemocracy: openjdk | 14:53 |

| DWSR | sote: I would recommend just ignoring it if it's just a one-off. | 14:55 |
| sote | it was mangoix that made the threat | 14:56 |
| vulte | sote: if it's an actual literal threat i.e. "i'm going to come and hurt you" the police would take it seriously in my experience | 14:56 |
| sote | so I can block people on this thing aye | 14:57 |
| sote | cool | 14:57 |

| yeats | disharmonic: yeah, you don't want to do that | 15:15 |
| disharmonic | yeats k11 there's a metapackage that gets the latest headers and source. | 15:16 |
| DWSR | disharmonic: As long as you have a method of reading and writing to NTFS partitions (ntfs-3g, or built in ntfs support in the kernel), you can symlink to whatever. | 15:16 |
| yeats | disharmonic: yep | 15:16 |
| k1l_ | vulte: yes, just keep in mind to reinstall the driver after a kernel upgrade (if dkms doesnt do the job) | 15:16 |
| DWSR | k1l_: dkms should do it, from my personal experience. | 15:16 |

| Bruse_ | Hi guys. I created a Ubuntu 12.10 version that I am trying to install on my Macbook Pro 9.2 (13" Mid-2012). But when I try to boot from the CD all I get is a blinking cursor. Anyone know how to fix this? | 15:18 |
| disharmonic | DWSR, on 12.10 DKMS strangely does not depend on the kernel headers. I run into that issue when i installed virtualbox(it wasn't a dep for that either) | 15:18 |

| DWSR | disharmonic: Ah, I'm on 12.04 | 15:18 |
| === gsmith1 is now known as vulte | ||

| vulte | but I have a new problem :( | 15:19 |
| Ray | try to use the LTS ver. like 12.04 for more further assistance bro~ | 15:19 |
| disharmonic | DWSR, yeats so symlinking to NTFS could potentially lead to filesystem issues? | 15:19 |
| SourceSlayer | It's covering a part of the screen but I can still click on things under it, is there any way to get rid of it without logging out? | 15:19 |
| DWSR | disharmonic: No. | 15:19 |
| DWSR | disharmonic: It could potentially lead to you corrupting your Steam install. | 15:19 |
| DWSR | disharmonic: ntfs rw support is pretty stable these days. | 15:20 |

| Dougie187 | Does anyone know if there's a way to get "shopt -s direxpand" to work in 12.04? | 15:20 |
| SourceSlayer | Why? I guess this is a common problem? | 15:20 |
| vulte | Just rebooted successfully after installing AMD proprietary driver. I'm turning off mirroring displays so I can use my dual monitors, and it says "The selected configuration for displays could not be applied: required virtual size does not fit available size: requested=(3840, 1080), minimum=(320, 200), maximum=(1920, 1920) | 15:20 |
| disharmonic | yeats, it could be done. But i have no way atm to back up all my data. So it would be risky | 15:21 |
| DWSR | vulte: Sounds like x didn't detect both panels properly. | 15:21 |
| sote | Ubuntu 10.10 worked fine on the Mac Mini | 15:21 |
| vulte | DWSR: it detected fine on the old open-source driver. how can i make it re-detect? | 15:22 |
| DWSR | vulte: Stop X, then 'sudo X -configure' | 15:23 |
| DWSR | vulte: That *should* work. | 15:23 |
| vulte | okay. how do i stop and start x before and after doing that then? sorry, new-ish to ubuntu | 15:23 |
| DWSR | vulte: First thing, pop open a terminal and check the output of 'xrandr -q' | 15:23 |
| DWSR | vulte: That will ask X what displays it thinks that you have. | 15:24 |
| Ray | SourceSlayer : Stuck..? how stuck is it? | 15:24 |

| vulte | disharmonic, DWSR: ran the commands listed, do i need to restart X or something? it still isn't working yet | 15:27 |
| disharmonic | vulte, for configuration changes to take effect you usually have to restart x yes | 15:27 |
| vulte | ok. what is the procedure to restart X then | 15:28 |
| k1l_ | vulte: just log out | 15:28 |
| vulte | ah. thanks | 15:28 |
| DWSR | vulte: Yes, usually. Restarting or logging out. | 15:28 |
| k1l_ | vulte: that will restart the xsession | 15:28 |

| ubottu | dcope: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 15:30 |
| disharmonic | vulte, you probably need to enable Big Desktop in amdccle now | 15:31 |
| vulte | disharmonic: Yeah, was just going to say the same error exists. I'll try and figure that out | 15:31 |
| DWSR | Is there a way to remove all packages a metapackage depends on? | 15:33 |
| dcope | yeats: thanks | 15:33 |
| disharmonic | DWSR apt-get remove libreoffice* should do the trick | 15:33 |
| dcope | Ray: i'm using 12.04 | 15:33 |
| DWSR | disharmonic: Thanks. Keep forgettign I can use wildcards. | 15:33 |
| dcope | Hm, only mentions 7.1 on the link yeats got the bot to write. I guess it'll work. | 15:34 |
| disharmonic | DWSR, also removing the core package should force all its depending packages to uninstall as well | 15:34 |
| Ray | dcope : i guess it works | 15:34 |
| vulte | woohoo! multi monitors are go. Thank you so much! | 15:34 |
| Ray | dcope : check with the jockey | 15:35 |
| disharmonic | vulte, np :) | 15:35 |
| Dougie187 | Is the only way to get bash 4.2.29 rather than 4.2.24 in 12.04 to build it yourself? | 15:35 |
| DWSR | disharmonic: Can I remove X? | 15:36 |
| DWSR | disharmonic: By just doing apt-get remove x*? | 15:36 |
| disharmonic | DWSR, that would remove all packages starting with x. Not recommended | 15:37 |
| DWSR | lol | 15:37 |
| disharmonic | although apt-get probable wouldn't be able to do it anyway | 15:37 |
| DWSR | X server is provided by xorg, correct? | 15:37 |
| vulte | More issues, hope you guys don't mind..I installed compiz packages and rebooted and that's when the display issues started. those are fixed with new AMD driver, but keycommands set in CompizConfig are not functioning. I'm not entirely sure compiz is actually on | 15:38 |

| DarkSnow | hi ! | 16:11 |
| cableordsl | vulte, ok thanks anyway, do you know where i can get help=? | 16:11 |
| vulte | lemur: I looked it up and if you replace .onion with .tor2web.org, it will work on the public web | 16:11 |
| k1l_ | pybokeh: how does that relate to a ubuntu support issue? we have the #ubuntu-offtopic for chit chat | 16:11 |
| pybokeh | oh ok thanks! | 16:11 |
| pybokeh | i saw someone mention flood here that is why i ask | 16:12 |
| sote | oh a chit chat ch.. where? | 16:12 |
| vulte | cableordsl: http://support.jdownloader.org/index.php?/Tickets/Submit | 16:12 |
| disharmonic | kostkon, xine is better than GStreamer imo. | 16:13 |
| pybokeh | since i didn't know what flood meant, how am i suppose to know asking about it is not allowed here? ;-) | 16:13 |
| sote | yeah I got excited and installed a heap of media players, making my own version of Ultimate Edition lol | 16:13 |

| deed02392 | is ubuntu supposed to come with runit as standard? or init? | 16:17 |
| kostkon | upstart | deed02392 | 16:17 |
| kostkon | damn | 16:17 |
| kostkon | !upstart | deed02392 | 16:18 |

| Lipizinho | sfsfs | 16:18 |
| cableordsl | vulte, i think, i will ahve a "quasistable ip" that changes only every two weeks or for providerwise | 16:18 |
| deed02392 | kostkon, i want to know because a package i'm installing wants to use runit by default | 16:18 |
| o0m | I need and experienced Ubuntu/Linux guru to PM for problem solving. I would appreciate it. Thanks! | 16:19 |
| deed02392 | i don't have the skill to replace that, i just want to know which ubuntu supports by default | 16:19 |
| vulte | cableordsl: you mean "questionable"? are you doing questionable things online? :P | 16:19 |
| ThinkT510 | o0m: why not in channel? | 16:19 |
| lasers | o0m: Ask here. Otherwise, you're out of luck. (Most likely!) | 16:19 |
| wildNBK | which package do I grab to allow the use of the 'old style' gnome interface? | 16:19 |
| zykotick9 | !notunity > wildNBK | 16:20 |
| ubottu | wildNBK, please see my private message | 16:20 |
| o0m | sorry thought it was to convoluted or something to annoy in chat =P | 16:20 |
| cableordsl | vulte, "quasi-stable"! | 16:20 |
| disharmonic | He probably wants to refresh his IP so he can d/l from free locker services faster | 16:20 |
| ThinkT510 | wildNBK: there is gnome fallback mode but gnome2 is dead, live with it | 16:20 |
| kostkon | deed02392, hmm no idea. if you could paste here the exact message using a pastebin) you are getting maybe someone will be able to help you | 16:20 |
| cableordsl | vulte, no questionable things i guess | 16:20 |
| o0m | im having a bot pf trouble... my upgrade isnt working, dont have any repo list... I cant seem to upgrade atall | 16:20 |
| o0m | *bit of | 16:21 |
| vulte | cableordsl: in my experience, if you aren't set up with a static IP from your provider, simply power-cycling your modem will give you a new IP | 16:21 |
| disharmonic | ThinkT510, wildNBK i find Cinnamon provides a relativly similar experience | 16:21 |
| vulte | cableordsl: if you aren't sure, ask the cable provider in question | 16:21 |
| ThinkT510 | disharmonic: not supported here | 16:21 |
| o0m | anyone able to run me through how to maybe get all those back so im able to? | 16:21 |
| cableordsl | vulte, i think its clear that i will have a static ip, that i m pretty sure of | 16:22 |
| wildNBK | ThinkT510, ok, the worst thing I find is the 'being sold stuff' in the home menu, can I at least get rid of that? | 16:22 |
| disharmonic | ThinkT510, obviously. I don't see why it shouldn't be mentioned though | 16:22 |
| ThinkT510 | wildNBK: of course, check privacy settings | 16:22 |
| k1l_ | cableordsl: that is a topic for the offtopic channel. (like mentioned before) | 16:22 |
| vulte | cableordsl: Ask the cable provider if they can set you up with a dynamic then | 16:22 |
| cableordsl | vulte, do you think i will have a chance with no programming knowledge to change my ip then (with JD) in this case? | 16:22 |
| disharmonic | cableordsl, static IP usually means it doesnt change. at all | 16:22 |
| wildNBK | lol, that easy... thanks! | 16:23 |
| ThinkT510 | disharmonic: feel free to mention it as long as you state it isn't supported on ubuntu (same with mate) | 16:23 |
| sote | unplug the modem cable for 5 mins will reset your IP? | 16:23 |
| vulte | cableordsl: without knowing the specifics of the provider, your setup, etc, I cannot say for certain. If you ask the cable provider prior to setup, I'm sure they can answer your questions | 16:24 |
| cableordsl | vulte, kll, disharmonic, yepp, thats what i think sukks with a stable ip. do you think i can still change it with jdownloader? | 16:24 |

| Megabyte | Hello | 16:24 |
| Megabyte | Can you guys help me with my mouse? | 16:24 |
| vulte | cableordsl: The modem wouldn't matter so much as how the ISP handles IP handouts | 16:24 |
| vulte | cableordsl: again, ask them | 16:25 |
| cableordsl | vulte, ok thaks i will | 16:25 |
| k1l_ | cableordsl: last warning now. this is offtopic here as its not a ubuntu issue. talk to jdonwloader or your ISP | 16:25 |

| vulte | sote: is the problem with the usb receiver ubuntu-specific or happens no matter what OS? | 16:30 |

| AntDam | hey all, i'm new to ubuntu and xchat...trying to learn and coming over from windows | 17:08 |
| lasers | jrtappers: Use regular terminal. (or make a simple script). That way, you can launch a 2nd X11 with one command. | 17:08 |
| psauxw | i got a wierd question ... I'm using a laptop right now and i tried pretty much all of the distros so I was wondering how come my laptop fan works well only with ubuntu? | 17:08 |

| lasers | jrtappers: When you start up computer, which monitors came on? | 17:10 |
| kovu | this is what comes up ---> direct usb://Unknown/Printer | 17:10 |
| k1l_ | psauxw: maybe because of the kernel settings and driver settings ubuntu uses. | 17:10 |
| psauxw | k1l_, yea that's what i think too ... but which settings ! :D | 17:10 |
| jrtappers | lasers, B and C have picture | 17:10 |
| jrtappers | lasers, A is on but black | 17:11 |
| jrtappers | lasers, I have an idea! How do I specify device with startx! | 17:11 |
| damselfly9 | psauxw; you mean the fan never turns on at all with other distros? | 17:12 |
| lasers | jrtappers: Those are your new default monitors, I guess? I don't know if I can change default monitors in BIOS. I don't think so. My computer is really old. ;3 | 17:12 |

| psauxw | damselfly9, nah i mean the fan turns SO MUCH on the other distros but with ubuntu it works without noise and without overheat | 17:13 |
| jrtappers | lasers, how do I select device when I run startx | 17:13 |
| lasers | jrtappers: When I start up, two monitors come on. I manually start 3rd monitor with hulu script. Now I think about it. I could start all three, but meh. | 17:13 |
| kovu | this is what comes up ---> direct usb://Unknown/Printer | 17:13 |
| kovu | when i type into the command console lpinfo -v it detects unknown usb printer | 17:14 |
| lasers | jrtappers: man startx -- Good luck. :) | 17:14 |
| jrtappers | lasers, thanks, at the very least I have 3 new ideas! Sorry to have such a hard to describe problem | 17:15 |
| damselfly9 | kovu; that forum thread mentioned that it started working after trying to print to it anyways. what happens then? | 17:15 |
| lasers | jrtappers: No problem. I should get fourth monitor. Just cause... :P | 17:15 |
| AntDam | anybody know where to get a list of videocards supported by ubuntu\linux? | 17:17 |
| sote | XChat-Gnome just crashed... sighs oh well... | 17:19 |
| lasers | jrtappers: There are some limitations.. For instance, you can't drag windows through all monitors. Only whatever X11 it's on. | 17:19 |
| jrtappers | How do I set which pci device startx or gnome-session uses? | 17:19 |
| jrtappers | lasers, I have a idea, but I need to find someone who knows about startx | 17:20 |
| lasers | jrtappers: lspci ? | 17:20 |
| jrtappers | lasers, I know that the integrated is 00:02.0 | 17:20 |
| jrtappers | lasers, How do I start a new X session on a certain PCI address? | 17:21 |
| damselfly9 | jrtrappers; at startup X detects what it can match to a driver. It goes by pci ids not slot numbers | 17:21 |
| jrtappers | damselfly9, I have the pci id, I want to start a second X session | 17:22 |
| damselfly9 | jrtrappers; the only way you could do that is within a virtual machine | 17:22 |
| lasers | jrtappers: No idea! | 17:23 |
| jrtappers | damselfly9, no other way? | 17:23 |
| damselfly9 | jrtrappers; the first copy of X will be taking control of your mouse and keyboard | 17:24 |
| adamk | jrtappers: Why not create an xorg.conf file that specifies the drivers for all your GPU devices in one spot? Then running X will run it on both devices. | 17:24 |
| jrtappers | adamk, That would be ideal | 17:24 |
| kovu | when i try to print nothing happens | 17:25 |
| jrtappers | adamk, problem is that I'm using the AMD beta drivers, and that was hard for me to work out | 17:26 |
| jrtappers | adamk, Im not very good at complex config files | 17:26 |
| damselfly9 | kovu; I wish I could be of moe help, but I don't have hardware like yours to experiment with | 17:26 |
| adamk | You are going to have a very very difficult time getting Xorg to use the proprietary drivers on one GPU and open source drivers with any other GPU. | 17:26 |
| adamk | It may not even be possible, honestly. | 17:26 |
| jaco | hi | 17:27 |
| jrtappers | adamk, can you think of how to try? | 17:27 |
| jaco | i need help | 17:27 |

| jaco | anybody can help me? | 17:28 |
| vulte | i'm on gnome3, I simply cannot find sleep/standby/suspend anywhere..is it hidden? | 17:28 |
| jrtappers | vulte, press the power button briefly | 17:28 |
| jrtappers | vulte, it will pop up | 17:28 |
| adamk | jrtappers: I wouldn't try. If I wanted to use different drivers on different GPUs, I'd stick with all open source drivers. That's your best chance of getting it to work. | 17:28 |
| jasunto | just curious if any has ubuntu 12.10 64bit desktop running on a PC with two nvidia cards in SLI? | 17:29 |

| jaco | anybody can help me with hdmi in ubuntu 12.04 | 17:29 |
| jrtappers | adamk, the open source drivers can't run the games when I tried, AMD beta was my last hope, it kind of works | 17:30 |
| adamk | Then I wish you luck. | 17:30 |
| vulte | !ask | jaco | 17:30 |
| ubottu | jaco: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 17:30 |
| kovu | damit i missed the messege how do i scroll up to see it | 17:30 |
| jrtappers | adamk, Ok, workaround, can I keep TTY going whilst im on ctrl+alt+f7? | 17:31 |
| jasunto_ | Yup | 17:31 |
| jrtappers | adamk, Have it as a permenant terminal window on that screen | 17:31 |
| damselfly9 | jrtrappers; so this is all about running games? Why not have two xorg.conf files, one which specifies the opensource drivers and the other which specifies the proprietary drivers? you could switch between xorg.conf files based on whether you want games or general usage | 17:32 |
| adamk | damselfly9: The problem with that is that the proprietary drivers use a different libglx... | 17:32 |
| zykotick9 | adamk: regarding your GPU open driver comment. i've read you "can't" simultaniously run nvidia/ati propritary drivers... | 17:32 |
| jrtappers | damselfly9, Sounds like a good idea, but how? | 17:32 |
| adamk | damselfly9: And a different kernel module. | 17:32 |
| adamk | damselfly9: So it would require rebooting between switching drivers. | 17:33 |
| adamk | zykotick9: That is correct. | 17:33 |
| jrtappers | OK, so can I keep TTY going? | 17:33 |
| henkka | Hello, could someone help me a bit. i have external monitor connected to my laptop. but cant set its resolution. its same as laptops | 17:33 |
| damselfly9 | rebooting between games vs general usage wouldn't be too terrible | 17:33 |
| vulte | henkka: are you mirroring the laptop's screen on the monitor or extending it? | 17:33 |
| jrtappers | adamk, damselfly9, zykotick9 Ok, workaround, can I keep TTY going whilst im on ctrl+alt+f7? | 17:34 |
| henkka | vulte, oh that helped.. thanks :D | 17:34 |
| vulte | henkka: np :) | 17:34 |
| damselfly9 | jrtrappers; you can set ubuntu to boot to text instead of to X, then you can switch xorg.conf files without rebooting | 17:34 |
| jrtappers | Ok, so how would I do all of this? | 17:35 |
| henkka | or didnt.. now i have apps on my laptop and empty desktop on monitor :D | 17:35 |
| damselfly9 | with a lot of effort. but to run games is worth it to the true gamer :) | 17:35 |
| jaco | I have Macbook Pro with always ubuntu, of course and both the sound and video go jumping when I connect hdmi to TV. Anybody knows what is happening?. Thank you in advance :-) | 17:35 |
| henkka | and mouse only moves on laptop monitor | 17:36 |
| damselfly9 | jrtrappers; first step, setup for boot to text | 17:36 |
| jrtappers | damselfly9, how long to set it up, roughly? | 17:37 |
| damselfly9 | less time than a night of halo, if everything goes well | 17:37 |
| jrtappers | Ok | 17:37 |
| jrtappers | damselfly9, Ok, should I backup my current config? (And how?) | 17:38 |
| damselfly9 | jrtrappers; backing up is always good | 17:39 |
| jrtappers | damselfly9, can we try using propietery and open source, just to see, with backup there is nothing lost if it goes wrong | 17:39 |
| damselfly9 | jrtrappers; so for steps- (1) set for boot to text (2) make sure both drivers are installed (3) generate 2 xorg.conf files, one for each driver | 17:41 |

| greenbarel | @henkka yes you can, if you have 2.5 external hard drive you can diskonect it and connest that from your laptop | 17:43 |
| bekks | henkka: Then check the hdd status. | 17:44 |
| kovu | no | 17:44 |
| kovu | what are those | 17:44 |
| henkka | with ubuntu it usually either hard crashed at startup. or freeze when doing something | 17:44 |

| jrtappers | !smart | jrtappers | 17:47 |
| jaco | oh, thanks | 17:47 |
| bekks | henkka: The package you need is called smartctl | 17:47 |
| jrtappers | henkka, No | 17:47 |
| jaco | im newbie | 17:47 |
| jrtappers | bekks, you can do it with preinstalled utils | 17:47 |
| kovu | same here | 17:47 |
| bekks | jrtappers: Tell me how that utility is named when it is not smartctl. | 17:47 |
| henkka | already dried some surface scan program, but it didnt found anything | 17:47 |
| bekks | jrtappers: There are no other tools which are able to test the SMART capabilities. | 17:48 |
| henkka | have to try that out when i have patience.. been pulling my hair off for about 2 days with that desktop comp | 17:48 |
| jrtappers | bekks, what about disks? click the settings on the top right in it | 17:48 |
| bekks | jrtappers: Which just reads the smart info but is NOT able to run SMART tests. | 17:49 |
| === maximus is now known as Guest55578 | ||
| bekks | jrtappers: At least without an installed smartctl | 17:49 |
| jaco | so, nobody knows how help me | 17:49 |
| jrtappers | bekks, if its a dependency of a preinstalled package then it should be already installed | 17:49 |
| bekks | jrtappers: Which technically doesnt change what I said. | 17:50 |
| kovu | how do i install my ppd driver for my printer | 17:51 |

| RollinV2 | jrib bekks i was curious about it. mainly for refreshing if a gui related package is updated. | 17:54 |

| jrib | it's not even the right key sequence and it's been disabled for a while by default too :) | 17:54 |
| RollinV2 | jaco, thanks. i will try that. | 17:54 |
| bekks | gherkin: I suggest saving your documents, and logging out properly :) | 17:54 |
| gherkin | does anyone want to hear a joke? | 17:54 |
| jrib | gherkin: #ubuntu-offtopic please | 17:54 |
| hplc | is there any generally accepted certification program for linux? or each distro went their own way? | 17:54 |
| bekks | RollinV2: That will kill your X-server - you have been warned. | 17:54 |
| gogo4 | gherkin: sounds like fun | 17:55 |
| gherkin | jrib: it's an ubuntu related joke though | 17:55 |
| jrib | RollinV2: jaco's suggestion won't work. It's not the right key sequence. ctrl-alt-backspace did used to restart the X server (but wouldn't take care to ask you nicely about saving your work) but that's been disabled by default for a while now. It's not what you want | 17:55 |
| jrib | gherkin: great, that's what #ubuntu-offtopic is for! #ubuntu is for support | 17:55 |
| gherkin | oh :( | 17:55 |
| lasers | You can't have 'fun' without #ubuntu-offtopic | 17:56 |

| konraddo | hi, someone asked me for help (how to list all files in current folder which name ends on 't' and order those files by date. i guess it'll be "ls *t -lrt", but unfortunatelly currently i don't have any linux installed to test it and i cannot find my pendrive with ubuntu. can somebody tell me if this is a proper command? | 17:58 |
| jrib | konraddo: it's not | 17:58 |
| jrib | konraddo: erm, maybe it is. I thought -r was same as -R but I'm wrong | 17:59 |
| jrib | konraddo: in any case, you'll still be listing the contents of directories. It depends on what you want to do exactly | 18:00 |
| konraddo | you mean that it would list not only files in current folder, but also files that are in subfolders of current folder? | 18:00 |
| jrib | konraddo: sure. If you have a folder named "foldert", you will get the contents of foldert as output | 18:01 |

| konraddo | ok, thanks | 18:01 |
| compdoc | shayde, their used to be an 'alternative' version of the installer for that | 18:02 |
| shayde | really now? | 18:02 |
| jrib | compdoc: the normal installer allows partitioning too, doesn't it? | 18:03 |
| shayde | jrib thats what I thought too... | 18:03 |
| shayde | jrib you select "something else" after selecting ur language | 18:04 |
| shayde | I'm just trying to figure out how to partition from there. | 18:04 |
| compdoc | shayde, I dont see the alternative for 12.10. Just 12.04. I know the Ubuntu Server d/l allows partition setup, including LVM | 18:05 |
| kovu | how do i make myself the root | 18:06 |
| compdoc | kovu, use the command sudo | 18:06 |
| yeats | !sudo | kovu | 18:06 |
| ubottu | kovu: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information.

| hhhzzzain | jpeterson: if that does not work, right-click in the title bar of and choose "move" | 19:56 |
| hhhzzzain | jpeterson: then you should be able to move the window once the "hand" icon appears. | 19:57 |

| JPeterson | hhhzzzain: the windows only have a close button (rather than also minimize and restore) | 20:00 |
| dr_willis | Hmm... the alt-click ANYWHERE ON A Window to drag it.. was a feature of every window manager ive ever used.. actually i think its a feature of X. | 20:00 |
| hhhzzzain | jpeterson: I entered the room a few minutes ago, what is your problem again? | 20:00 |
| ThinkT510 | JPeterson: you're not trying to alt+click drag a window thats maximised are you? | 20:01 |
| JPeterson | no "minimize window" "maximize window" button on windows | 20:01 |
| hhhzzzain | jpeterson: oh ok, I remember that you could add those and pick which buttons to show at the "window" settings area. | 20:02 |
| hhhzzzain | jpeterson: I am not currently on ubuntu and can not direct you where you can find that settings. | 20:02 |
| damselfly9 | JPeterson; what if you just close the window and try again? | 20:03 |
| hhhzzzain | jpeterson: you can fix that. but if you need to immediately minimize or maximize windows, right-click on the title bar (the top part of windows) and it should show options to minimize, maximize, move, close, others ... | 20:04 |
| hhhzzzain | jpeterson: some particular windows do not have maximize such as the settings. But you are saying all windows (file browser, internet, etc) do not have minimize and maximize buttons? | 20:05 |

| henkka | theres no install button or anything | 20:17 |
| jrtappers | Ok, that means you will need to look on the web | 20:17 |
| ThinkT510 | henkka: you shouldn't need to install intel graphics drivers | 20:17 |

| adamk | henkka: Again, pastebin that log file. | 20:18 |
| damselfly9 | jrtappers; I think X needs to use a file called "xorg.conf" if there is one. But you could have a shell script to "cp xorg.conf.1 xorg.conf" or "cp xorg.conf.2 xorg.conf" | 20:18 |

| LiThiuME3 | :O | 20:20 |
| henkka | adamk, http://pastebin.com/VjDbr6u9 | 20:20 |
| oxoocoffee | RollinV2: I was googling around and found few. Still looking | 20:20 |
| damselfly9 | jrtappers; that's why I was suggesting vefore that you might set it to boot to text console. that way it always boots | 20:20 |
| LiThiuME3 | Hmmm can somebody help me I don't really know the proper term for something I want to do lol >< | 20:20 |
| ThinkT510 | jrtappers: what exactly do you mean? if just the xorg.conf file then xorg will simply dynamically load as normal | 20:21 |
| adamk | henkka: You have the nvidia drivers installed, which is why the GLX module is not working. You are attempting to use the nvidia GLX module on an intel GPU. | 20:21 |
| oxoocoffee | RollinV2: Looks like you can edit fstab to add extra params. But wondering if it can auto detect. | 20:21 |
| oxoocoffee | Also what is the best FS for SSD? | 20:21 |
| henkka | adamk, wondering how that happened.. any idea how to fix it? | 20:21 |
| ThinkT510 | LiThiuME3: describe what you want to do | 20:21 |
| adamk | henkka: Remove the nvidia driver :-) | 20:22 |
| RollinV2 | oxoocoffee, i couldnt find anything specific when i looked months ago. i use the ssd manager in windows dual boot to be safe. | 20:22 |
| damselfly9 | oxoocoffee; btrfs is supposed to be good for ssd | 20:22 |
| henkka | adamk, bit noobish on ubuntu. could you be more spesific :P | 20:22 |
| RollinV2 | oxoocoffee, ah.. thats a good find. | 20:22 |
| LiThiuME3 | ThinkT510 kind of a "shortcut" to a folder in linux if you ls it would looke like that Folder name --> destination | 20:22 |
| adamk | henkka: How you remove it depends on how you installed it in the first place. | 20:22 |

| Wug | I'm not sure how much if any stuff they share between them | 21:38 |
| kostkon | hurleyman, yes, it should be easy | 21:38 |
| keelG | I am +1 with Wug | 21:38 |
| hurleyman | kostkon, messed with amahi at all? | 21:38 |
| Wug | .NET applications are not strictly executables, so mono is probably just an implementation of the .NET framework | 21:39 |
| kostkon | hehateme, avahi? not really | 21:39 |
| kostkon | oops | 21:39 |
| kostkon | hurleyman, avahi? not really | 21:39 |
| keelG | I have some experience with Avahi | 21:39 |
| hehateme | what is avahi? | 21:39 |
| hurleyman | ahahi or amahi? | 21:39 |
| keelG | Bonjour / zero-config for you link local | 21:40 |
| hurleyman | avahi or amahi? | 21:40 |
| kostkon | hurleyman, oh it's amahi ok :P | 21:40 |
| keelG | avahi, I am sorry if I started up some confusion | 21:40 |
| hurleyman | no worries!! | 21:40 |
| JPeterson | how do i programtaiclly from startx or other program run gnome instead of unity? | 21:42 |
| hurleyman | what about greyhole for disk pooling? | 21:43 |
| Wug | JPeterson: have you googled it? google yielded this: http://www.itworld.com/software/272614/use-gnome-classic-ubuntu-1204 | 21:43 |
| keelG | JPeterson: Install the Gnome DE | 21:43 |
| Wug | havent tested it | 21:43 |
| Brewster | I have a friend that would like to use space on my vps to practice using wordpress | 21:44 |
| JPeterson | with programatically i mean with an argument | 21:44 |
| Brewster | oops forgot to finish | 21:44 |
| k1l_ | JPeterson: could you first clarify which ubuntu you are using? | 21:45 |
| JPeterson | 12.10 | 21:45 |
| k1l_ | JPeterson: and like told before. dont use startx. start the dm, like lightdm and choose the session there | 21:45 |
| jrtappers | How do I stop Xorg -configure saying can't run in framebuffer mode, please specify Bus IDs | 21:45 |
| k1l_ | JPeterson: so why were you talking about ubuntu 14.4 the last times you were asked o_O | 21:45 |
| Brewster | I have a friend that would like to use space on my vps to practice using wordpress. However I really don't trust anyone with access to my vps. Is there a way that I can give them ftp access to only a specific directory? | 21:46 |
| jrtappers | Brewster, a user with only access to that folder by ftp may work | 21:46 |
| keelG | Brewster: I reckon all FTP server applications support ACL based on users | 21:46 |
| jrtappers | ThinkT510, I have nearly solved the graphics problem | 21:47 |
| Brewster | oh wait hold up I think I solved my problem | 21:48 |
| jrtappers | ThinkT510, but Xorg -configure says it can't run in framebuffer mode, please specify Bus IDs | 21:48 |
| Brewster | alright thanks | 21:48 |

| Gleaker | hello, I am trying to install ubuntu from the windows installer and its downloading the amd64 version and I do not have an amd processor... i assume this is ok? | 22:07 |
| Gleaker | there was no option to pick anything different | 22:07 |
| damselfly9 | Gleaker; no, it won't run | 22:07 |
| keelG | HPChris: Is your Windows already installed? If so, GRUB will mostlikely fix it for you NP. Else Have a liveCD ready with boot-repair. | 22:08 |
| Gleaker | it auto selected it i guess | 22:08 |
| damselfly9 | Gleaker; you need a 64 bit cpu to run 64 bit linux | 22:08 |
| keelG | Gleaker: AMD64 is if your cpu supports the x86_64 architecture | 22:08 |
| Gleaker | hrm | 22:09 |
| guntbert | damselfly9: don't be silly - he defintely doesn't need an AND processor | 22:09 |
| guntbert | *AMD | 22:09 |
| damselfly9 | he needs a 64 | 22:09 |
| Gleaker | is there a way to convince the windows inatller i have an x86 system? | 22:09 |

| keelG | Gleaker: or installing Ubuntu FROM Windows? | 22:10 |
| Gleaker | trying to install ubuntu from the webpage, it has an installer | 22:11 |
| keelG | Gleaker: I will find you another guide to install - hang on | 22:11 |
| Gleaker | for some reason it d/l's and trys to install the amd64 version | 22:11 |
| keelG | Gleaker: This guide has screenshots and it all: http://news.softpedia.com/news/Installing-Ubuntu-12-10-301012.shtml | 22:12 |
| k1l_ | Gleaker: it is the 64bit version. the patent was invented by amd so its called amd64. but its for intel cpus, too | 22:12 |
| keelG | Gleaker: i386/i686 is 32bit, and AMD64 is 64bit - if you have a computer from this decade - you should be able to run AMD64 just fine | 22:13 |
| Gleaker | kk | 22:13 |
| keelG | Gleaker: and as k1l_ says it doesnt matter if you have intel or AMD | 22:13 |

| brianmunk | does ubuntu 12.10 come with a new naming standard for wired network interfaces, my card is not eth0 but p6p1 and I just wondered why, does anyone have a answer or a site with more information? | 22:16 |
| keelG | brianmunk: Not that I am aware of - my interfaces are named liked they've always been | 22:18 |

| tb01110100 | Hello, I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my friend's Compaq Presario CQ57. However, the computer refuses to boot from the USB, though it shows up in the boot options menu. | 22:28 |
| PhysicsBrain | Can I do in other boot or only in the Ubuntu? | 22:28 |
| tb01110100 | I select SanDisk, then it boots to Windows. | 22:28 |
| damselfly9 | tb01110100; that happanes to me too, my pc has a low success rate of booting usb | 22:29 |
| Gnonthgol | anyone? | 22:29 |
| jwrigley | Gnonthgol, what was that? | 22:30 |
| Gnonthgol | what is the precise-updates repo? do I want it? | 22:30 |
| jwrigley | Gnonthgol, are you asking conceptually what it is, or simply looking for the url? | 22:31 |
| souperk | hello, I have a problem! well, its not really a problem but.... being a newbie, its more a question! I would like to see the console messages scrolling at boot, instead of a black screen before desktop comes up! | 22:31 |
| souperk | how can I do that? | 22:31 |
| Gnonthgol | jwrigley: conseptualy, the url is easy enough to find | 22:32 |
| damselfly9 | souperk; it is a boot option you can specify in grub2 | 22:32 |
| jwrigley | souperk, Generally escape will toggle that | 22:32 |
| ring0 | souperk, remove 'splash' from /etc/default/grub afterwards run 'sudo update-grub' | 22:33 |
| Gnonthgol | jwrigley: but I ran into a dependency problem with perl on the main repo and wonders if I should activate the updates repo, however I do want lts | 22:33 |
| tb01110100 | Hello, I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my friend's Compaq Presario CQ57. However, the computer refuses to boot from the USB, though it shows up in the boot options menu. | 22:33 |
| souperk | hello damselfly9 and ring0, thanks for your answers. ring0, do I have to edit that file "grub" right from ubuntu desktop? | 22:33 |
| guntbert | !repeat | tb01110100 | 22:34 |
| ubottu | tb01110100: 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/ | 22:34 |
| ring0 | souperk, yes, you have to edit the file | 22:34 |
| souperk | I will try! | 22:34 |
| souperk | the command "sudo update-grup" is important? or can I just boot the machine after the modification? | 22:35 |
| damselfly9 | souperk; might be safer to comment it out than remove it altogether, so you don't forget where it went | 22:35 |
| souperk | *sudo update-grub *sorry | 22:35 |
| ring0 | souperk, no you need to run the command afterwards or your adjustment will have no effect | 22:36 |
| jwrigley | Gnonthgol, Do you want it? Depends what version of Ubuntu you are running. A repository (repo for short) is the place from which ubuntu installs software. The updates repo contains recommended updates to software, precise-updates repo contains recommended updates for Ubuntu Precise Pangolin | 22:37 |
| ring0 | damselfly9, how is he supposed to comment out splash in this line? GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" | 22:37 |
| souperk | nice statement! | 22:38 |
| souperk | maybe i can just put // in front of the line like i do in php files? | 22:38 |
| damselfly9 | by copying the whole original line to a comment | 22:38 |
| keelG | tb01110100: It sounds like your machine doesn't want to boot the USB for one reason or the other. Does the USB boot on other machines, and are you using UEFI boot (Win8 certified machines)= | 22:38 |
| ring0 | damselfly9, that would work | 22:38 |
| tb01110100 | keelG: It's a W7. | 22:39 |
| ring0 | souperk, uncommenting is done with a # | 22:39 |
| keelG | tb01110100: can you boot the USB on another machine? | 22:39 |

| dcope | all of the sudden my 12.04 install is freaking out... it's like there is an input device clicking as fast as possible on my machine | 22:39 |
| jwrigley | In ubuntu jar-files can be executed if java is installed and the executable bit is set. Anyone know how that happens? | 22:39 |
| dcope | any ideas? | 22:39 |
| Gnonthgol | jwrigley: I too have read the docs, but what exactly does recommended updates mean, is it major versions, minor versions or just patches, can it cause the system to become unstable? | 22:39 |
| souperk | I can put a line above that one with #GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" | 22:40 |
| tb01110100 | keelG: BRB | 22:40 |
| souperk | so that I can still see how it was the original? is it ok? | 22:40 |
| damselfly9 | yes | 22:40 |
| JokesOnYou77 | HI all, I'm getting a duplicate sources message when I run apt-get update and I think it has something to do with an extra Partners repo entry added by the software center, has anyone seen this before? | 22:40 |
| keelG | jwrigley: java -jar /path/to/jar.file | 22:40 |
| damselfly9 | dcope; what is it doing at a rapid rate? | 22:41 |
| Gnonthgol | jwrigley: the kernel have options to register executors in userspace, when the kernel tries to run something that is not a shell file or an elf file it runs java | 22:41 |
| dcope | damselfly9: it is hard to describe | 22:42 |
| dcope | damselfly9: i right click on the desktop, and new folder is atuomatically selected | 22:42 |
| dcope | by the time the right click is over, the new folder is also clicked like 15 times | 22:42 |
| dcope | so now i have a bunch of open folders | 22:42 |
| tb01110100 | keelG: Now that you mention it, No. :) | 22:43 |
| dcope | i think the sixaxis driver is cuasing it | 22:43 |
| damselfly9 | dcope; does it keep doing that? or does it only happen when you right click? | 22:43 |
| keelG | tb01110100: That might be the root cause then ;) Use unetbootin, if you already tried that or it still fails - try to repartition/format the USB drive | 22:44 |
| dcope | damselfly9: it keeps doing it | 22:44 |
| dcope | for instance, i just clicked my user name in the top right of unity and it auto selected "Swithc User" | 22:44 |
| damselfly9 | dcope; can you try a different mouse? | 22:44 |
| dcope | damselfly9: i have | 22:44 |
| dcope | damselfly9: i tried usb mouse and now i am over VNC | 22:44 |
| damselfly9 | dcope; that's messed up alright | 22:45 |
| dcope | indeed | 22:45 |
| dcope | i removed the sixaxis driver but it's still happening | 22:45 |
| JokesOnYou77 | Does anyone know why the software-center lists an extra Partners source that is "Added by Software-Center" and if it's safe to uncheck it? | 22:45 |
| damselfly9 | what about a different usb port? | 22:45 |
| dcope | damselfly9: i tried vnc too and it does it | 22:45 |
| dcope | with the mouse unplugged | 22:45 |
| Gnonthgol | dcope: I hope you have checked the obvious and unplugged all the usb connections to see if there is another mouse hidden away | 22:45 |
| dcope | yes | 22:46 |
| damselfly9 | weird | 22:46 |
| dcope | it only happens after login all | 22:46 |
| dcope | i use the mouse at the login screen just fine. i log into my account and bam, it happens | 22:46 |

| samo_svoj | I have a quuestion regarding default UI - currently it is Unity but entering into mobile phone market Ubuntu plans to use Qt for UI. Does it mean Ubuntu have plans to switch to KDE as default UI in future? | 22:47 |
| dcope | is there a way to unload x drivers? | 22:48 |
| jwrigley | Gnonthgol, does that mean there is a kernel flag to activate java? | 22:48 |

| dcope | damselfly9: yes. "sixad" package. but i removed it and rebooted | 22:49 |
| samo_svoj | dr_willis: of course you can, but it is more complex from developers perspective to mix GTK+ and Qt | 22:49 |
| dr_willis | samo_svoj: i belive some ubuntu apps are allready using qt. i foget what ones | 22:49 |
| dcope | damselfly9: so it only happens when i click | 22:50 |
| dcope | i can mouse over a folder and it doesn't open | 22:50 |
| dcope | but if i click it once to select it, like 10 new windows open | 22:50 |
| samo_svoj | dr_willis: does it means ubuntu is leaving GTK+? | 22:50 |
| damselfly9 | dcope; apparently it left unremoved entries in the config files. you could try reinstalling the normal mouse package, that might reset things | 22:50 |
| Gnonthgol | jwrigley: look up binfmt_misc | 22:50 |
| kostkon | dr_willis, ubuntu one client | 22:50 |

| dcope | jesus christ, is there no way to launch an x program on a machine that i am ssh'd into on ubuntu? | 22:57 |
| keelG | dcope: I seem to vaguely remember needing to enable something. Buuuuuut I am not sure at all | 22:57 |
| Gnonthgol | dcope: use the -X option in ssh | 22:58 |
| keelG | dcope: Its a long time since Ive done it, but it should work | 22:58 |
| dr_willis | dcope: with xhost and exporting the display.. i recall its doable | 22:58 |
| damselfly9 | dcope; yes, if the target machine's port 6000 was left open | 22:58 |
| UNIm951 | Hi. | 22:58 |
| UNIm951 | Help me please | 22:58 |
| UNIm951 | i have realtek wifi | 22:58 |
| dr_willis | disable x forwarding. on the host use the xhost command to allow it.. ssh in. export display. run the app | 22:59 |
| guntbert | UNIm951: you need to ask a real question - all in one line please | 22:59 |
| dcope | i'm not trying to tunnel x to my machine! | 22:59 |
| Gnonthgol | dcope: assuming you have X on both the client and the server and X-Forwarding enabled in sshd.conf on your server | 22:59 |
| dcope | no, i don't want to forward | 22:59 |
| keelG | dcope: ooow, then you should listen to dr_willis | 22:59 |
| dcope | i am ssh into machine foobar, how can i launch `xev` on machine foobar? | 22:59 |
| * washuu_de is back (gone 87766:28:00) | 23:00 | |
| Gnonthgol | dcope: you could set the DISPLAY env variable to direct the output to another display | 23:00 |
| UNIm951 | on lsmod i can see that rtl8192se module is loaded. But network-manager and ifconfig -a don't show wlan0 interface | 23:00 |
| dr_willis | dcop ... you use xhost then export the display | 23:00 |
| JokesOnYou77 | Flannel: sources.list http://paste.ubuntu.com/1574277/ contents of /etc/apt/sources/list/d http://paste.ubuntu.com/1574281/ | 23:00 |
| Gnonthgol | JokesOnYou77: #cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d | 23:01 |
| JokesOnYou77 | Gnonthgol, you can't cat a directory | 23:02 |
| Gnonthgol | JokesOnYou77: #cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* | 23:02 |
| Flannel | JokesOnYou77: Sorry, I meant the contents of each of those files. Since it looks like in your sources.list, you have the partner repository enabled, and then in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/precise-partner.list, you probably also have the partner repository enabled, and there's your duplication. | 23:02 |
| JokesOnYou77 | Gnonthgol, I bow to your superior knowledge of the shell :) | 23:03 |
| bloony | why doesnt the ubuntu repo have htop 1.0.2? only has 1.0.1 it seems? | 23:03 |
| dr_willis | !latest | 23:03 |
| ubottu | Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 23:03 |
| Flannel | bloony: What version of Ubuntu are you running? | 23:03 |
| === c_smith_away is now known as c_smith | ||
| JokesOnYou77 | Flannel, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1574297/ | 23:04 |
| Gnonthgol | bloony: next release will have 1.0.2 | 23:04 |
| hehateme | kostkon thanks for the info worked out perfectly. was using an older wine. | 23:04 |
| bloony | Flannel: hmm.. cant remember.. where can I see that? | 23:04 |
| Flannel | bloony: lsb_release -a | 23:05 |
| bloony | Gnonthgol: okay | 23:05 |
| kostkon | hehateme, :) | 23:05 |
| bloony | Flannel: 12.10 | 23:05 |
| Gnonthgol | JokesOnYou77: there you see duplicate lines, there should be the same lines in software centre | 23:05 |
| Flannel | JokesOnYou77: Yeah, the previous thing I said is the case. You have the partner repository enabled in two places. See line 53 here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1574277/ and 16 here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1574297/ | 23:05 |
| Flannel | bloony: htop 1.0.2 was released in November of 2012, after 12.10 was released. That's why it doesn't have 1.0.2, what about 1.0.2 were you hoping to have? Features? or bug fixes? | 23:06 |
| ironhalik | keelG: After installing laptop-mode-tools and following wiki art on power saving, I've cut the power consumption in half :) | 23:06 |
| keelG | ironhalik: great stuff mate! I did some stuff like activating ASPM (be careful and test this, before enabling) it could save you as much as ~1watt - Also I made some changes to chargins tresholds of the battery to extend it lifetime | 23:07 |
| JokesOnYou77 | Flannel, I see that now. But I still don't understand what sources.list.d is for or why the software-center added this entry on its own. Also, lines 16 and 17 are also duplicates if they are some how additional to sources.list | 23:08 |
| usr13 | keelG: Where is the wiki? | 23:08 |
| * washuu_de is away: Away | 23:08 | |
| Flannel | JokesOnYou77: Pretend everything in sources.list.d is appended to your sources.list, because that's basically what apt-get does. | 23:08 |
| ironhalik | keelG: the wiki reports ASPM should be safe to use on x220, so I enabled it too | 23:08 |
| keelG | usr13: ask ironhalik, I only pointed him into the direction of laptop-mode-tools | 23:08 |
| ironhalik | usr13: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/PowerManagement/PowerSavingTweaks | 23:09 |
| keelG | ironhalik: I am using it also on a X1C, but you should still test it :) | 23:09 |
| Flannel | JokesOnYou77: Yeah, both the binary and src repositories are duplicates. I'm not sure why software center did, but simply deleting that file (sources.list.d/precise-partner.list, I imagine) should solve your problem | 23:09 |
| keelG | ironhalik: just by leaving your machine powered on for like 24hours or so | 23:09 |
| JokesOnYou77 | Flannel, so should I fix this by unchecking the box in the software-center GUI or should I edit sources.list since it looks like modifications for ".d might not stick? | 23:10 |
| keelG | ironhalik: I am curious - what is your watt usage on a X220? | 23:10 |
| ironhalik | keelG: currently, on idle, about 12-13W | 23:11 |
| ironhalik | and with the CPU out of sleep, around 20-23 | 23:11 |
| keelG | max brightness? | 23:11 |
| Flannel | JokesOnYou77: I'm not really sure. Some of those warnings were for other files, since that contained the contents of *all* of those files. Unchecking it in software sources *should* comment it out of sources.list, not fiddle with sources.list.d. My first experiment would be to delete the file in the sources.list.d, open/close all of the software sources thing, and then see if it comes back (I expect it won't). | 23:12 |
| === daniel is now known as Guest40812 | ||
| * Gnonthgol remembers the days of undervolting the cpu to 0.7V to keep the fans from dying | 23:12 | |
| ironhalik | yeah, max or almost max - according to powertop, reducing the brigthness doesn't save as much power as it did on CCFL displays | 23:12 |
| keelG | Gnonthgol: check this out: http://www.dvice.com/archives/2012/12/ges-piezoelectr.php | 23:13 |
| ironhalik | Gnonthgol: I've once seen a guy who would blow into his thinkpad during boot-up to make his dead fan spin, to bypass BIOS checking it's status | 23:13 |
| keelG | Gnonthgol: The "fan" has been installed on a Thinkpad and test to to work | 23:13 |
| JokesOnYou77 | Flannel, I'll give it a shot | 23:14 |
| Gnonthgol | keelG: nice | 23:14 |
| keelG | Gnonthgol: soon it will be "remember back in the day, when laptop had moving mechanical parts?" | 23:14 |
| hipitihop | I'm getting constant stream of following error in my syslog can someone help me identify pls: kernel: [21221.398976] input input5: event field not found | 23:14 |
| Gnonthgol | modern laptops have better fans and more thought out placement of everything in addition to less power hungry hardware, cooling is not the biggest problem today | 23:15 |
| keelG | true, but the design of a fan is "hopeless" never the less | 23:15 |
| keelG | compared to the alternative presented by GE | 23:15 |
| Gnonthgol | keelG: laptops will always have moving parts, they just becomes smaller | 23:15 |
| keelG | weeeeeell | 23:16 |
| JokesOnYou77 | Flannel, I unchecked it in the GUI and it worked! Thanks for all the help. And same to Gnonthgol | 23:16 |
| ironhalik | the x220 is silent most of the time, only under heavy load you can hear a faint fan noise | 23:16 |
| Gnonthgol | np | 23:16 |
| keelG | Gnonthgol: There is no bearings left then :) | 23:16 |
| keelG | On my Thinkpad X1C fan noise or cooling is no issue - however the idea of a mechanical spinning fan is hopeless :D | 23:17 |
| keelG | It will die eventually | 23:17 |
| keelG | mostlikely before anything else | 23:17 |
| Gnonthgol | either the cpus will become cooler so they don't need fans, or we will have fancier cooling, or both | 23:18 |
| keelG | Gnonthgol: didnt you check out my link? | 23:18 |
| keelG | you have the fan replacement right there | 23:18 |
| keelG | wait, ill find the youtube promo | 23:18 |
| Gnonthgol | I saw the link, and I am waiting for it to become common | 23:19 |
| ironhalik | my 486sx ran passively cooled :> | 23:19 |
| keelG | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hm5fXj-hUpk | 23:19 |
| keelG | true, but this seems like something we could have within a few generations | 23:19 |
| keelG | (of laptops | 23:20 |
| keelG | ) | 23:20 |
| keelG | they took the old Thinkpad X1 (with the NON-ULV cpu) and tested it | 23:20 |
| keelG | ow wait it looks like its the ULV CPU afterall | 23:22 |
| keelG | still cool tech! | 23:22 |

| kostkon | JPeterson, for which app? | 23:27 |
| JokesOnYou77 | jay__, I'm really not sure there is such a thing. Your best bet would be to make sure you're close enough to your router to get a signal and to make sure you're not getting any interference from nearby wifi routers | 23:27 |
