| capoderra | I didn't follow what you mean about the tab | 00:01 |
| capoderra | it's in ubuntu software center? | 00:01 |
| phunyguy | capoderra, no software SOURCES. | 00:02 |
| phunyguy | not center. | 00:02 |
| phunyguy | in the Dash type Software Sources | 00:02 |
| oliverp | If I have two network interfaces connected to the internet; eth0 and eth1; How do I choose which interface that is preferred? As in which interface that Firefox will use? | 00:02 |
| gustav_ | JPeterson: I know top men. That's all I'll say. | 00:02 |
| capoderra | I did again, and it gave me software center. | 00:03 |
| k1l_ | gustav_: dont feed the drama in here, please. lets stick to the technical support. | 00:03 |
| phunyguy | capoderra, then try from "System Settings" under the System area | 00:04 |
| phunyguy | capoderra, system settings from dash | 00:04 |
| capoderra | right, I've tried that and it says no proprietary drivers are in use on this system. | 00:05 |
| phunyguy | capoderra, then there may not be one available | 00:05 |

| histo | capoderra: what type of video card do you have? | 00:05 |
| phunyguy | perhaps someone else can chime in. is that an older card? | 00:05 |
| capoderra | nvidia geforce m330 I think | 00:06 |
| histo | capoderra: nvm I just looked through scroll back. sudo apt-get install nvidia-current | 00:06 |
| k1l_ | capoderra: can you pastbin a "lspci" ? | 00:06 |
| phunyguy | histo, he is in a liveUSB env | 00:06 |
| histo | phunyguy: so. Isn't he trying ot install nvidia drivers? | 00:07 |
| phunyguy | he just wants t oknow if it would work after an install | 00:07 |
| histo | i'm confused | 00:07 |
| phunyguy | since it doesnt work on the LiveUSB | 00:07 |
| histo | phunyguy: then he can install them in the usb environment | 00:07 |
| phunyguy | histo, wont that require a reboot? | 00:07 |
| histo | phunyguy: Well he could rmmod the nouveau and modpobe the nvidia with out rebooting from a console. | 00:07 |
| phunyguy | fair enough | 00:08 |
| histo | phunyguy: Not sure if that works though. Never tried it. Assuming it would though. | 00:08 |
| genii-around | Yes, it works. | 00:08 |
| histo | capoderra: Your card works with ubuntu | 00:08 |
| capoderra | I'm sure it does, but it's not showing up on this live USB | 00:08 |
| genii-around | ( that is, rmmod nouveau and then modprobe nvidia-current works ) | 00:08 |
| histo | capoderra: to answer your question. Nvidia open source drivers are kind of screwy atm. So you need to install binary drivers if you want nvidia's version. More info can be found at the link provided by ubottu | 00:09 |

| histo | bel3atar: okay well you can delete the ubuntu partition expand the windows one. and fixmbr from teh windows install cd | 00:13 |
| bel3atar | histo: I don't think xp cd has that | 00:13 |

| k1l_ | bel3atar: if you are unsure better ask the windows support what exactly you need to type and what kind of cd you need. | 00:15 |
| gustav_ | JPeterson: Look at the scripts that service runs. | 00:15 |
| JPeterson | gustav_: what's the path to the script? | 00:16 |

| EmLeX | Quick question.. What are the mayor differences betwheen 12.04 LTS and 12.10 | 00:27 |
| k1l_ | EmLeX: newer software and kernels. 12.04 is a lts and is considered to be more stable with way longer support times | 00:28 |
| hpuser4466 | Grub mysteriously added a new boot menu option "Previous Linux versions". How do i get rid of that? | 00:28 |
| gustav_ | Is there any new method for viewing 2012 BluRays on Ubuntu? | 00:29 |

| k1l_ | hpuser4466: uninstall old kernel packages "linux-image-..." | 00:29 |

| phunyguy | ahh. | 00:30 |
| k1l_ | FluxD: mint and cinnamon are not supported here. better ask the mint guys | 00:30 |
| OerHeks | k1l_, no, the one before current is needed for recovery, you will get an error when you try :-D | 00:31 |
| FluxD | phunyguy, nautilus fork for cinnamon | 00:31 |
| hpuser4466 | ok. i suppose the /lib folder will tell me which kernels are in use? | 00:31 |
| phunyguy | FluxD, on Mint, right? | 00:32 |
| hpuser4466 | how do i know which kernels to delete? | 00:32 |
| k1l_ | OerHeks: hmm, did remove all the kernels before the last one. but never used the recover in that times | 00:32 |
| FluxD | phunyguy, I am using it on ubuntu with their ppa | 00:32 |
| k1l_ | hpuser4466: take a look at what kernel are in /boot | 00:32 |

| === Guest18663 is now known as knightrage | ||
| OerHeks | Usually you can doudo apt-get autoclean and it will delete your old kernels (actually all outdated packages | 00:33 |
| OerHeks | * sudo apt-get autoclean | 00:33 |
| hpuser4466 | OerHeks. ok thanks. I notice i have 3.2.0-23-generic, 3.2.0-36-generic & 3.2.0-37-generic. | 00:34 |
| hpuser4466 | and autoremove is deleting headers for 3.2.0-36 | 00:36 |
| hpuser4466 | I rebooted and grub still shows the previous linux option. Autoremove must have missed something. I'm guessing i remove the oldest kernel 3.2.0-23 | 00:37 |

| Nautilus | I'm having a little trouble with a drupal install, maybe it has something to do with apache... on my local ubuntu 12.04 box I have mod_rewrite and drupals cleanurl's working seemingly fine, no issues. When I set my default vhost to point to the drupal directory and visit from another box on the lan by IP#, I can get to the home page but not any others via cleanurl. The native drupal node numbering works though. My apache error log ha | 00:38 |

| Nautilus | also: "RewriteBase /" is active in .htaccess (this is the usual case for this trouble) | 00:38 |
| phunyguy | hpuser4466, did you do autoremove or autoclean?> | 00:38 |
| hpuser4466 | phunguy. autoremove. | 00:39 |
| phunyguy | hpuser4466, OerHeks saud autoclean | 00:39 |
| phunyguy | said* | 00:39 |
| Rudd-XXX | hello everyone | 00:39 |
| phunyguy | not autoremove. | 00:39 |
| OerHeks | i was wondering too, phunyguy | 00:39 |
| hpuser4466 | oh, sorry, i'll do autoclean. | 00:40 |
| OerHeks | autoclean updates your grub2 too, afaik. | 00:40 |
| Rudd-XXX | I have a problem. Recipe B after recipe A depends on user created in recipe A (homedir = node[:etc][:passwd][user][:dir]) but at the time Recipe B is compiled, "user" variable does not reference any user in the ohai data. | 00:40 |
| Rudd-XXX | how to fix? | 00:40 |
| capoderra | I found a page that explains how to solve my video card problem, but the guy was using 10.04 when he wrote the post... should I assume that it should work on 12.10? | 00:40 |

| guideX | thanks over the past few days to everyone who helped me get past the initial shock of leaving my windows nest to figure out how to spawn a 12.10 environment when my 11.04 environment broke down. Fortunetely, I can continue using 11.04 as there was a backup... however, I have a new respect for unity new | 00:49 |
| chamunks | is chrooting essentially pointless with sudo being the default security method? | 00:49 |
| kroson | guideX: upgrade as 11.04 is no longer supported :) | 00:49 |
| guideX | -new | 00:49 |
| guideX | I tried to, but it's a little impracticle right now.. my 11.04 is working flawlessly again, I see no need to upgrade here at work, as 12.10 is too slow for dev work without a 3d accellerated card, but at home I'm contemplating using 12.10 as my main os | 00:50 |
| guideX | it's just too painfully slow on this video card | 00:51 |
| chamunks | !chroot | 00:51 |
| ubottu | A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 00:51 |
| guideX | but at home I have a 3d accellerated card, so I will be thinking about it there :) | 00:51 |
| JoshuaK | it is an outdated version of linux | 00:52 |
| JoshuaK | Ubuntu 10.04 fails to have internet. No wlan , eth0 is present but when plugged into router no internet connection is established. Happens on all of my PCs. | 00:52 |
| guideX | 11.04 | 00:52 |
| guideX | oh sorry | 00:52 |
| kroson | guideX: you know that if unity is a bit heavy for you, you can install any other edition of 12.10 right? :) | 00:52 |
| guideX | I was unsatisfied with gnome shell and gnome3, and xfce | 00:52 |
| guideX | I like gnome 2, I wish I could still run it | 00:53 |
| guideX | on 12.10 | 00:53 |
| kunji | chamunks: Not at all, it's very useful to use on a liveCD when you need to install packages to the existing filesystem on the HD. | 00:53 |
| kroson | guideX: use MATE or Cinnamon then | 00:53 |
| guideX | I do like unity, when it works well.. | 00:53 |
| guideX | I wish unity had a "no 3d bs" mode | 00:53 |
| guideX | I like what it "brings to the table" | 00:54 |
| capoderra | How do I know if my graphics card is working? | 00:54 |
| guideX | my big holdup with the windows move is call of duty black ops and black ops2 | 00:54 |
| guideX | how do I kill zombies from linux? | 00:54 |
| chamunks | kunji: thats an interesting concept | 00:54 |
| hpuser4466 | guideX..i use ubuntu-mini.iso you can build a lightweight distro by choosing ubuntu-lxde-desktop from the menu. Works fine on limited hardware. | 00:54 |
| dforthman | Ok, so I got the openswan vpn client installed, but I can't get the L2TP/IPSec VPN to connect. The settings I've used works on Windows, but I get either 500 (timeout) or 300 (failed to negotiate or establish security associations). Has anyone had any success with this? | 00:54 |
| kunji | chamunks: I'm relatively new to the unix/linux world, as far as I understand it's the primary use of chroot | 00:55 |
| ironhoof | How big should the / partition for ubuntu? | 00:55 |
| guideX | 30 gb | 00:56 |
| capoderra | How do I know if my graphics card is working? | 00:56 |
| dforthman | capoderra, do you see icons? haha | 00:56 |
| ironhoof | we dont have 30GB to play with | 00:56 |

| antonio_ | For some reason my 12.10 is going freakishly slow... | 00:57 |
| dforthman | antonio_, i've been having the same issue | 00:57 |
| antonio_ | Lots of hangs..and if I try to open any links in thunderbird it takes FOREVER for them to load up...how can I diagnose this? | 00:58 |
| dforthman | figured it was just me | 00:58 |
| antonio_ | whats it doing? | 00:58 |
| guideX | I say 3dis it in a vm | 00:58 |
| guideX | ? | 00:58 |
| guideX | antonio_: is it in a vm? | 00:58 |
| antonio_ | nope | 00:58 |
| capoderra | I ran glxgears and it keeps telling me the frames per second. so my card works? | 00:59 |
| hpuser4466 | capoderra, yes. how many fps you get? | 00:59 |
| capoderra | about 850 FPS | 00:59 |
| hpuser4466 | not too bad then | 00:59 |
| hpuser4466 | a decent card gives you thousands of fps. crappy video about 60fps | 01:00 |
| capoderra | Interesting. | 01:00 |
| guideX | antonio_: are you using unity? | 01:00 |
| guideX | the thing that comes with ubuntu 12.10? | 01:00 |
| capoderra | I'm running 12.04 from a live USB... graphics works, wireless works... anything else I should check before installing? | 01:00 |
| guideX | it's possible your video card isn't powerful enough, or you need a driver | 01:00 |
| guideX | unity has a lot of 3d fx | 01:01 |
| dforthman | I'm running 12.10 on a laptop - could be why i'm having my issues | 01:01 |
| antonio_ | I'm running on a laptop | 01:01 |
| antonio_ | are there any ways to diagnose a slow system? | 01:01 |
| dforthman | i have issues with centos also, to the point of video flickering with or without the proprietary driver | 01:02 |
| guideX | what kind of video card do you have antonio_? | 01:02 |
| malucious | can someone help me get synapse to open files again? Installing xfce/thunar screwed up my launch settings for synapse. | 01:02 |
| antonio_ | not sure | 01:02 |
| antonio_ | guidex: how can I find out? | 01:03 |
| dforthman | antonio_, what make and model is it? a google search will usually tell you | 01:03 |
| antonio_ | dforthman: any term command to find out? | 01:03 |
| hpuser4466 | capoderra. Check audio. Audio can be unpredictable on older pcs. | 01:03 |
| dforthman | lspci, but it may or may not give you anything you need | 01:04 |
| guideX | antonio_: what kind of laptop? | 01:04 |
| guideX | you can give me the model? | 01:04 |
| antonio_ | dell inspiron | 01:04 |
| guideX | ah ok | 01:04 |
| guideX | that's probably has a crappy video card | 01:04 |
| guideX | onboard video | 01:04 |
| capoderra | what's a sure way to check the audio? | 01:04 |
| guideX | which will give you poor performance with unity | 01:04 |
| guideX | get gnome shell or xfce, or a new video card :D | 01:05 |
| histo | capoderra: check the audio for what? | 01:05 |
| phong_ | how to run .run file? | 01:05 |
| phong_ | i have installation with .run | 01:05 |
| capoderra | hardware check before installing | 01:05 |
| histo | capoderra: Did you try and boot a live cd? What problem did you have? | 01:05 |
| dforthman | I've got an acer v3-551-8887, proprietary ati driver crashes unity and the audio has a lot of static in it | 01:05 |
| guideX | or you could do like me, and suffer with unity's slowness | 01:05 |
| guideX | my pc can't run unity well either | 01:05 |
| kunji | capoderra: Just go online and and find some audio to play and see if you can hear it. | 01:05 |

| phong_ | oh | 01:06 |
| histo | !notunity | guideX antonio_ | 01:06 |
| antonio_ | guidex: how can I fix this without getting a new video card? | 01:06 |
| ubottu | guideX antonio_: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 01:06 |
| guideX | my work pc anyways | 01:06 |
| capoderra | this is a live USB, 12.04, no problems per say, just want to make sure it will all work before installing | 01:06 |

| histo | antonio_: Same chipset here what other types of specs do you ahve ex: ram and cpu? | 01:09 |
| kunji | antonio_: Umm, if you want it to run fast use LXDE | 01:09 |
| histo | antonio_: where are you experiencing the "slowness"? | 01:09 |
| antonio_ | histo: just seems buggy. When trying to open links from thunderbird to firefox it can take forever | 01:11 |
| histo | antonio_: So firefox opens slow? | 01:11 |

| phong_ | ctrl+alt+F1 still doesn't want me to install .run nvidia driver | 01:13 |
| GreaseMonkey | kunji: right now i've copied the .iso + its contents to a 2GB partition which will eventually be made into a swap partition after installation | 01:13 |
| histo | phong_: sudo ./nameofnvidia.run | 01:13 |
| phong_ | it still said i am not out of X | 01:13 |
| phong_ | histo, it still said i'm not out of X | 01:13 |
| histo | phong_: Are you using sudo? | 01:14 |
| GreaseMonkey | the first partition which is 36GB is currently an ext2 partition used only for starting up GRUB | 01:14 |
| phong_ | yeah | 01:14 |
| guideX | antonio_: yes gnome shell will make it faster | 01:14 |
| histo | phong_: okay sudo lightdm stop | 01:14 |
| guideX | much faster | 01:14 |
| phunyguy | phong_ : sudo service lightdm stop | 01:14 |
| phong_ | oh | 01:14 |
| GreaseMonkey | you will probably kill me if i told you how i tried to install it earlier. | 01:14 |
| phong_ | after i finished what? | 01:14 |
| phong_ | how do start window back after installation of nivida | 01:14 |
| GreaseMonkey | i just want to force the installer to read the files from partition 2 of the hard disk, and not a bloody CD-ROM | 01:14 |
| dforthman | phong_, you should probably switch to singleuser mode (runlevel 1) | 01:14 |
| antonio_ | guidex: does the gnome shell strip out all of the fancy features? | 01:14 |
| phong_ | no idea what u're talking about | 01:14 |
| phong_ | i'm new to ubuntu | 01:14 |
| ElixirVitae | Hi, is there an easy way to get the list of the installed programs and probably their dotfiles? | 01:15 |
| phong_ | i basically want to install nvidia driver download from nvidia.cm | 01:15 |
| histo | phong_: Excuse my typo. sudo stop lightdm that will stom the display manager which will stop X. To start it again you could sudo start lightdm however after you install the nvidia driver you need to reboot or load the kernel module manually. | 01:15 |
| kunji | GreaseMonkey: Umm, how are you planning to launch the installer? | 01:15 |
| histo | phong_: any reason you are using nvidia's version and not the one in the repo? | 01:15 |
| phong_ | crtl+alt+f1 then it ask for logon info. | 01:15 |
| ElixirVitae | I suppose I might copy the contents of the home folder | 01:15 |
| phong_ | then i do sudo ./nvidia.run thing | 01:15 |
| GreaseMonkey | kunji: i'm launching it from grub. | 01:15 |
| histo | phong_: Wait stop | 01:15 |
| GreaseMonkey | i need to force it to get files from the partition i booted it from. | 01:16 |
| histo | phong_: What are you trying to do and why? | 01:16 |
| phong_ | i try to install nvidia video driver | 01:16 |
| phong_ | downloaded from nvidia.com | 01:16 |
| histo | ElixirVitae: dpkg -l | 01:16 |
| GreaseMonkey | is there a flag to force the installer to search for a *cough* "CD" *cough* in /dev/sda2? | 01:16 |
| histo | ElixirVitae: you could use find to find the hidden directories in home | 01:16 |
| phunyguy | phong_, try "sudo apt-get install nvidia-current" | 01:16 |
| phong_ | histo, t his is what i have: NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-310.32.run | 01:16 |
| kunji | GreaseMonkey: Shouldn' | 01:17 |
| histo | phong_: Is there a reason you are using that instead of the nvidia-current package? | 01:17 |
| ElixirVitae | Will do histo, much appreciated. | 01:17 |

| phong_ | in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter | 01:17 |
| GreaseMonkey | no i am not burning another dud CD | 01:17 |
| phong_ | why it ask for that? i dont have CD i install from usb | 01:17 |
| kunji | GreaseMonkey:t need to, the installer is on the iso, so if you boot from the iso using grub | 01:17 |
| GreaseMonkey | lubuntu 12.10 alternate i386 if you're wondering | 01:17 |
| kunji | GreaseMonkey: Then it should be getting the files from there anyway | 01:17 |
| phong_ | histo, it ask me for CD | 01:18 |
| GreaseMonkey | but in its infinite wisdom it's searching for CD-ROM drives | 01:18 |

| GreaseMonkey | i might see if i can get grub2 and drop it onto the first partition, i'm using a grub version from 2004 (the one that knoppix 3.4 has on it) | 01:18 |
| GreaseMonkey | it's the text based installer | 01:19 |
| histo | phong_: You have the cdrom sources enabled in your /etc/apt/sources.list is why it's asking for cd | 01:19 |

| GreaseMonkey | what i did was i copied the .iso to the partition as well as the contents of the .iso | 01:20 |
| nullby7e | ? | 01:21 |
| GreaseMonkey | copying the .iso itself was required as it stopped i think half way when i copied them from my USB HDD | 01:21 |
| nullby7e | !manual dkms | 01:21 |
| GreaseMonkey | so then i had to copy the remainder from the installer shell | 01:21 |

| kunji | GreaseMonkey: I don't think that you're actually at the installer for some reason... I think you're ending up in the GRUB shell? | 01:23 |
| jrib | JPeterson: what on earth... | 01:23 |
| GreaseMonkey | i am actually in the installer | 01:23 |
| GreaseMonkey | root (hd0,1) \ kernel /install/vmlinuz \ initrd /install/initrd.gz \ boot | 01:23 |

| ubottu | GreaseMonkey: The guidelines for using the Ubuntu channels can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines | 01:25 |
| kunji | GreaseMonkey: Err, that's not right, you've booted into the filesystem, but you haven't booted it as a disk, it's not going to like that. No wonder you're having problems with it, but ok, here's something that could work, mount the iso as a loopback device and see if the installer can find the files then. | 01:25 |
| GreaseMonkey | k | 01:25 |
| nullby7e | ubottu: for what is the site for dkms? | 01:25 |

| histo | ElixirVitae: You could do something like find ~ -maxdepth 1 -name ".*" would show you all the .files and directories in your ~ | 01:26 |

| Sky_Pod | Hey, I really need some layman's terms help. I tried installing Ubuntu alongside windows and it wound up screwing with my boot sequence. My monitor will not turn on until it defaults booting to Windows. I also can't access my BIOS now | 01:33 |
| ddddereeeeeew3 | hi | 01:33 |
| ddddereeeeeew3 | quit | 01:33 |
| Sky_Pod | hi | 01:34 |
| GreaseMonkey | that's really bizarre... Sky_Pod, have you tried switching your comp + monitor off at the wall, waiting 20 seconds, then switching them on? | 01:34 |
| Sky_Pod | no I haven't tried that | 01:34 |
| GreaseMonkey | i suspect you MAY need to reset your BIOS if you can't access it | 01:34 |
| GreaseMonkey | is it a laptop or a desktop? | 01:34 |
| Sky_Pod | desktop | 01:34 |
| GreaseMonkey | k, do you have your motherboard manual or something | 01:35 |
| Sky_Pod | It's in storage :S | 01:35 |
| GreaseMonkey | but yeah, i do recommend turning it off and on at the wall | 01:35 |
| GreaseMonkey | i have a comp where the keyboard controller conks out after some time, and that's what i have to do | 01:35 |
| Sky_Pod | by at the wall I assume you mean shut down, unplug, and then boot back up | 01:35 |
| dforthman | I've got an acer v3-551-8887, proprietary ati driver crashes unity and the audio has a lot of static in it when using Skype. | 01:36 |
| GreaseMonkey | yeah | 01:36 |
| GreaseMonkey | dforthman: what ATI version? | 01:36 |
| GreaseMonkey | erm, driver version | 01:36 |
| GreaseMonkey | i've personally found 12.3 to be miles better than 12.10 | 01:36 |
| dforthman | I tried 12.10, I'll give 12.3 a shot | 01:37 |
| Sky_Pod | I've also heard that it's likely a Grub that's messing with it. I unfortunately don't even know what a grub is, or how to get rid of it | 01:37 |
| GreaseMonkey | grub is the bootloader used to load up linux | 01:37 |
| GreaseMonkey | do you have a linux livecd | 01:37 |
| Sky_Pod | no. i don't know what that is either | 01:38 |
| === grep is now known as Guest45795 | ||
| GreaseMonkey | how'd you install ubuntu, then? | 01:38 |
| GreaseMonkey | because i have a very old version of ubuntu somewhere and that came on a livecd | 01:38 |
| ClientAlive | I need to change the order of the launcher icons in ubuntu 12.04 desktop. The answers I'm seeing online tell me to drag the icon out (to the right) then place back in wher I want it. This is not working for me. Does anyone know how to do this? | 01:38 |
| Sky_Pod | i went to ubuntu.com and selected run alongside windows. It downloaded an installer which I ran | 01:39 |
| GreaseMonkey | hmmkay | 01:39 |
| JPeterson | the answer to [00:47] <JPeterson> how do i apply the change after editing /var/spool/cron/crontabs/user manually? (not through crontab -e) is `sudo touch /var/spool/cron/crontabs` this channel sucks for not having anyone that know that | 01:39 |
| Sky_Pod | then it finished successfully, and said I needed to restart | 01:39 |
| jrib | JPeterson: please don't be rude. Everyone here is a user like you. | 01:40 |
| dforthman | GreaseMonkey, Sorry, I tried 13.1. I'll give the 12.3 a shot, though. | 01:40 |

| manamana | antonio_2: idk then, sorry :( | 02:06 |
| ulkesh_ | antonio_2: I've seen where Ctrl+Alt+F1 won't show a prompt (TTY) because your bios has an onboard video card enabled and it's choosing that one, just fyi. | 02:07 |
| ulkesh_ | antonio_2: assuming you have a separate video card, i mean | 02:08 |
| antonio_2 | I have onboard video | 02:08 |

| ulkesh_ | antonio_2: well i mainly mean, if you have two video cards (one on board and one separate) and you're using the separate one, you can disable the onboard one in the bios and the Ctrl+Alt+F1 TTY "should" show up | 02:09 |
| ulkesh_ | antonio_2: i'm not sure of your specific issue atm (wasn't logged in when you said it) | 02:09 |

| antonio_2 | no... | 02:13 |

| phunyguy | I have come to the conclusion that this wont boot anything from USB, even though it is enabled in the bios... but it does have a network boot option | 02:18 |

| phunyguy | _helios_, because I dont have a drive on that tablet | 02:20 |
| ulkesh_ | antonio_2: if you installed it as sudo apt-get install gnome-shell then you should be able to remove it with sudo apt-get remove gnome-shell | 02:20 |
| ulkesh_ | antonio_2: but i've never messed with gnome-shell myself | 02:20 |
| GreaseMonkey | oh, tablet. | 02:20 |
| phunyguy | _helios_, it is a new Lenovo Thinkpad 2 tablet that simply refuses to boot from USB\ | 02:20 |

| phunyguy | GreaseMonkey, did. | 02:20 |

| ClientAlive | I'm having a problem with software center. It's been at half way installing MyUnity for a half hour (went to subway, came back and am half way through my footlong already - and it's still at half way). What do I do? | 02:58 |
| bazhang | !notunity | phong_ | 02:59 |
| ubottu | phong_: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic | 02:59 |
| seednode | bazhang, to be fair, he kinda started it | 02:59 |
| bazhang | ClientAlive, what version of ubuntu, where is myunity from | 02:59 |
| dr_willis | the gnome fallback modes are scheduled to be removed at some time in the future - if you want a classic type desktop - you may want to check into Lubuntu | 03:00 |
| ClientAlive | bazhang: 12.04 desktop. An online tutorial instructed to add a certain backport repo. When I went to do that I was informed in bash that MyUnity is already avail in the regular repo for 12.04. I searched it in software center and clicked install - and now here we are | 03:00 |
| dr_willis | and there are classic-gnome type menu indicator applets for gnome-shell and unity | 03:01 |
| DoYouKnow | my ubuntu is locked up at "Running post-installation trigger update-notifier-common". Can I safely reboot? | 03:01 |
| dr_willis | !info myunity | 03:01 |
| ubottu | Package myunity does not exist in quantal | 03:01 |
| dr_willis | Myunity was removed in 12.10 I belive. it had a short run ;) | 03:01 |
| phong_ | ok | 03:01 |
| KxTwo | Hey guys when looking at gparted what do the key symbols mean that appear next to partition name? | 03:02 |
| bazhang | ClientAlive, you're trying to tweak the unity launcher? dash? or what | 03:02 |
| phong_ | is there a way to make the directory view in ubuntu to permanently view in list mode for any folder or drives? | 03:02 |
| phong_ | everytime i have to press CTRL+2 to view list mod | 03:02 |
| DoYouKnow | *ubuntu *setup | 03:02 |

| ClientAlive | dr_willis: If you are running 12.04 put this in your terminal and see what the message, then cancel: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:myunity/ppa | 03:02 |

| KxTwo | ok maybe you guys can help me with this. My friend wanted to do a dual boot on his system. We installed windows 7, then booted ubuntu live. Shrunk the partition and created two new partitions, one for install one swap. Installed ubuntu and rebooted. However its not booting, grub isn't coming up to choose and its not booting windows or ubuntu. | 03:04 |
| DoYouKnow | ok, I'm rebooting. whether ubuntu setup likes it or not | 03:04 |
| dr_willis | so it just powers up and shows the post screen then blank KxTwo ? | 03:04 |
| ClientAlive | bazhang: I know what a ppa is. The confirmation message says MyUnity is in the 12.04 repos and don't add that repo just search it in software center and get it (that's the gist of the message). | 03:05 |
| ClientAlive | At any rate, I need to do somethign about this. I'm stuck bro. | 03:05 |
| ClientAlive | what do I do? | 03:05 |
| here4thegear | I need a little help. I have Maverick on a VPS and I wanted to upgrade to a supported release. I changed my sources.list file as instructed here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades and then I did aptitude update then aptitude upgrade. | 03:05 |
| phong_ | ******is there a way to make the directory view in ubuntu to permanently view in list mode for any folder or drives? | 03:05 |
| dr_willis | ClientAlive: so you tried just 'sudo apt-get install myunity' ? | 03:05 |
| dr_willis | phong_: not that ive ever noticed.. #gnome or askubuntu.com may know.. | 03:06 |
| here4thegear | /etc/lsb-release still says I'm maverick | 03:06 |
| KxTwo | dr_willis, that is correct. I am a little rusty so even went in with the live usb and changed the flags for the os partitions to boot but would get NO OS or something of that nature | 03:06 |
| dr_willis | phong_: may be some gconf setting you can tweek | 03:06 |
| here4thegear | did I miss a step in the process? | 03:06 |
| KxTwo | dr_willis, I assume it is somethign to do with grub but that should have been taken care of during install | 03:06 |
| dr_willis | KxTwo: its possible it is booting grub but not showing a proper video mode. | 03:06 |
| DoYouKnow | well, it's broken. good luck with me getting support here. | 03:06 |
| ClientAlive | dr_willis: no, through software center without adding that repo. It shows up in software center but won't install all the way. Software center doesn't seem to have a way to view details of the install. | 03:06 |
| antonio_2 | ugh | 03:06 |
| dr_willis | KxTwo: in any case it should at least be defaulting to an os after a few min | 03:06 |
| dr_willis | ClientAlive: so you have removed the ppa? done a sudo apt-get update. sudo apt-get upgrade, then tried it again? | 03:07 |
| antonio_2 | I just installed gnome 3 and I till can't get to a login screen | 03:07 |
| KxTwo | dr_willis, I waited for several minutes already | 03:07 |
| antonio_2 | just a stupid spinning cursor | 03:07 |
| KxTwo | dr_willis, is it possible I did something wrong when setting up the partitions? I simply created two new primary parts, ext4 and swap | 03:07 |
| dr_willis | KxTwo: i would check out the fix-grub wiki pages and get boot-repair going to be sure grub is working right.. | 03:08 |
| ClientAlive | dr_willis: I never added it | 03:08 |
| dr_willis | KxTwo: i wouldent think so.. but its hard to tell. | 03:08 |

| dr_willis | antonio_2: go to a console. login, use sudo service lightdm restart | 03:08 |
| KxTwo | grub loads fine from the liveusb | 03:09 |
| dr_willis | live cd uses syslinux i thought - not grub | 03:09 |
| KxTwo | I am not sure actually I assumed grub becaues the interface was the same | 03:09 |
| dr_willis | im not sure any more these days either. ;) | 03:10 |

| antonio_2 | dr_willis: what does that do? just a blinking cursor now | 03:11 |
| dr_willis | normally a cd uses syslinux. i guess they could use grub. | 03:11 |

| antonio_2 | yeah | 03:31 |
| nikozzzzzz | If it's frozen... | 03:31 |
| dr_willis | there should be a remount / as rw item in the initial menu i recall of the recovery mode. | 03:31 |
| antonio_2 | didn't see that | 03:32 |
| lucky1 | hey folks, anyone have experience with mounting a cd drive in ubuntu.. stuck | 03:32 |
| GreaseMonkey | mount /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom | 03:32 |
| dr_willis | theres some command to remount / are rw, but i dont recall what it was. I tend to boot to text mode if ihave issues not recovery mode | 03:32 |
| GreaseMonkey | mount -o remount,rw / | 03:32 |
| dr_willis | lucky1: this is a data cd? not an Audio cd? | 03:33 |
| lucky1 | I'm actually trying to burn a CD.. audio is my ultimate goal | 03:33 |
| lucky1 | so I use k3b.. | 03:33 |
| dr_willis | You dont mount a blank cd... | 03:33 |
| lucky1 | to try to do it.. but I know I somehow have to mouint the CD drive but the standard sudo ect ect ect didn't workf or me | 03:33 |
| lucky1 | ohh?? | 03:33 |
| lucky1 | Ohh?? | 03:34 |
| dr_willis | how can you mount a 'cd' that is blank? ;) | 03:34 |
| lucky1 | LoL!! | 03:34 |
| lucky1 | this is all strage to me folks | 03:34 |
| dr_willis | You dont mount an Audio Music cd either... | 03:34 |
| lucky1 | I'm not a couple months away from starting to use this from windows.. | 03:34 |
| dr_willis | drag the tunes to the spot in k3b.. hit burn... | 03:34 |
| lucky1 | yes, done that and what happens is for 34 seconds, it basically gives back an error | 03:35 |
| lucky1 | I've tried Kfburn and Basero too.. same thing.. so it has to be a problem with the CD device mounting I think? | 03:35 |
| dr_willis | and the error is? | 03:35 |

| lucky1 | no, cdr | 03:47 |
| lucky1 | in fact | 03:47 |
| Septi | any ideas? | 03:47 |
| dr_willis | antonio_2: well i guess the proper thing to do would be to use the ppa-purge tool to purge and remove all the packages the ppa installed, then reinstall the ubuntu-desktop package | 03:48 |
| lucky1 | one more CD to the ocean.. let me see | 03:48 |
| antonio_2 | how do I do that purge thing? | 03:48 |
| dr_willis | To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » | 03:48 |

| antonio_2 | I'm ready to smash this latptop with a hammer | 03:48 |
| * dr_willis closes the ticket.. | 03:49 | |
| antonio_2 | can I just uninstall what I did? | 03:49 |
| lucky1 | first thing that happens when I put in a blank disk is it says "could not open document" | 03:49 |
| dr_willis | gnome-shell is in the default 12.10 repositories.. there was no need to add any extra ppa's | 03:49 |
| dr_willis | sudo apt-get remove packagename if you know what you installed | 03:49 |
| dr_willis | but without purgeing the ppas first.. it may still be confused | 03:49 |
| dr_willis | the point of purgeing the ppa is to get back to a default system | 03:49 |
| Cypress | crap does anyone know where to contact FreePlane devs on IRC? | 03:50 |
| dr_willis | see what ppa's you have installed in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory | 03:50 |
| OerHeks | antonio_2, that is the problem wit ppa's, when in problems, the owner is not here to help you fix things. usually ppa-purge can revert it perfectly. | 03:50 |
| dr_willis | just diabling a ppa. may or may not fix things. | 03:50 |
| dr_willis | disabling | 03:50 |
| antonio_2 | these are the commands that i was instructed to use http://pastebin.com/GcjCRgBp | 03:51 |
| lucky1 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1611143/ That's using a clean CD.. well, was one.. LoL! | 03:51 |

| lucky1 | what does that mean? | 03:52 |
| lucky1 | anyone know? | 03:52 |
| dr_willis | so for each ppa-add you used.. you need to do a ppa-purge for the same ppa. | 03:52 |
| GreaseMonkey | lucky1: try writing it as TAO (track at once) | 03:52 |
| GreaseMonkey | instead of SAO (session at once) | 03:52 |

| lucky1 | wait | 03:57 |
| lucky1 | opps.. spoke too soon.. but it lasted a minute and 9 seconds before krapping out | 03:57 |
| dr_willis | Id move the wire over.. install ppa-purge, and do the commands to purge the ppa. it may need to redownload/reinstall the original packages as part of the purge | 03:57 |

| phunyguy | I have been messing with xchat to try and find a reason for the xchat-indicator bug, and it's not as bad in 12.04, but really bad in 12.10. If you select Xchat from the indicator applet, it doesnt attach to the backgrounded process, it just starts a new one. | 04:09 |
| usr13 | ivotkl: Brokenness | 04:09 |
| pam | dr_willis: well it ddid | 04:10 |
| pam | did | 04:10 |
| dr_willis | i imagine somthing else is also going on.. | 04:10 |
| phunyguy | even with it running as the active window, if you select xchat in the envelope, it starts a new xchat window. | 04:10 |
| pam | now I have a completely bricked system | 04:10 |
| JZApples | So I'm new to rsync. I'm trying to sync the folders with files from one computer to the other. Problem is the files on the destination computer are spread out across multiple drives. I want all the source folders from A-S to go to one drive and the rest (T-Z) to go to a different drive. I'm in the process of writing a script to automate this when I need to. Is there a way to do this? | 04:10 |
| GreaseMonkey | pam: i wouldn't call it bricked | 04:11 |
| phunyguy | I think the bug lies in xchat-indicator, not the actualy xchat package. | 04:11 |
| GreaseMonkey | if you can't get in, use a livecd or some sort of rescue mode | 04:11 |
| mattkruse_ | bah. | 04:11 |

| ivotkl | Have a pleasent night pam. | 04:12 |
| dr_willis | !fsck | 04:12 |
| ubottu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 04:12 |

| dr_willis | heh. had a bug in beta once.. fsck would always set the date wrong - so it would always be rechecking because its been so long snce the last check | 04:14 |

| dr_willis | every time ive ever tried to do a remote desktop over 3g. it was so slow it was unuseable | 04:24 |
| dr_willis | easir to just use ssh to get to the ubuntu box | 04:24 |
| ivotkl | I've seen several ones, but was recommended this one. However, if box is off, I cannot Wake On Lan or load program. | 04:24 |
| ivotkl | Oh, ok. | 04:24 |
| dr_willis | if the box is off.. call the wife.. tell her to turn it on. ;) | 04:25 |
| ivotkl | dr_willis: Should I search the forums for some how to on that Secure Shell? | 04:25 |
| ivotkl | I have just divorced, there is no more wife. LOL | 04:25 |
| dr_willis | for remote accessing a linux box.. you DEFINATLY want to learn ssh | 04:25 |
| ivotkl | Well, "divorced". (We were not married) | 04:25 |
| dr_willis | !ssh | 04:25 |
| ubottu | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 04:25 |
| ivotkl | Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh, so PuTTy... rings a bell there. But is for windows, so NO THANK YOU: XD | 04:26 |
| ivotkl | But will definitely read about SSH. Thanks.ç | 04:26 |
| ivotkl | *But will definitely read about SSH. Thanks. | 04:26 |
| dr_willis | You are confused.. putty is just a client... | 04:26 |
| dr_willis | !info putty | 04:26 |
| ubottu | putty (source: putty): Telnet/SSH client for X. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.62-9 (quantal), package size 324 kB, installed size 799 kB | 04:26 |

| dr_willis | it has 'issues' ;) | 04:30 |
| rodayo | I know that when the ubuntu phone image comes out it'll be very tailored to the galaxy nexus. But I'm guessing I can just go and buy a nexus from my provider and expect to get ubuntu on it with a few button presses. So what exactly would I need to do to the phone to put ubuntu on it? E.g. does the phone need to unlocked? | 04:31 |
| bazhang | rodayo, #ubuntu-phone | 04:31 |
| GreaseMonkey | i'm about to install updates anyhow | 04:31 |
| dr_willis | rodayo: we really have no details on it as far as i know.. ive not noticed any providers that shell the nexus either... I thought you bought them direct from google. | 04:32 |
| jab416171 | rodayo: you would have to unlock the bootloader, which is as simple as "adb reboot bootloader && fastboot oem unlock" | 04:32 |
| jab416171 | and then you would flash the images on the phone, probably via script, and then poof, ubuntu | 04:32 |
| rodayo | dr_willis, I don't think so. The nexus is offered from a few different providers. I was able to find at fido.ca for example. | 04:32 |
| dr_willis | rodayo: never heard of fido.ca | 04:33 |
| rodayo | dr_willis, canadian provider | 04:33 |
| dr_willis | last i looked into the nexus it also had some lacking features compared to many of the phones out... but theres always the next nexus.. :) | 04:33 |
| dr_willis | Ill stick to my S3 for another year i imagine | 04:34 |
| jab416171 | rodayo: I've already installed ubuntu on my Nexus 7, and I imagine it's going to be a very similar process for the phones. | 04:34 |
| rodayo | jab416171, well it's good to know that at least the process isn't too applied. | 04:35 |
| jab416171 | yeah, if you've done any ROM flashing or tinkering in ADB, it's really straightforward. | 04:37 |
| evilytwisted | HI, my pc has detected my external hardrive.. but it doesnt have a letter...http://pastebin.com/GZ2rBXGe how do i assign it a letter? | 04:39 |
| dr_willis | evilytwisted: you mount it... | 04:39 |
| dr_willis | !mount | evilytwisted | 04:39 |
| ubottu | evilytwisted: mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount | 04:39 |
| evilytwisted | how do i mount that... I already tried mount -t 001 ddint do anything | 04:39 |
| dr_willis | It should auto mount on first access via the file manager | 04:39 |
| evilytwisted | it doesnt mount doing tha | 04:39 |
| dr_willis | use a proper mount command.... | 04:39 |
| evilytwisted | doing /mount -t sda1 doesnt work either | 04:40 |
| GreaseMonkey | umm... | 04:40 |
| GreaseMonkey | -t specifies the type | 04:40 |
| dr_willis | use a proper mount command.... dont just use random wrong mount commands..... | 04:40 |
| evilytwisted | mount -t /dev/sda1 | 04:40 |
| hillary | how do i install eclipse manually in ubuntu 12.04 | 04:40 |
| GreaseMonkey | that's getting there... | 04:40 |
| GreaseMonkey | drop the -t | 04:40 |
| evilytwisted | ok | 04:40 |
| GreaseMonkey | make an empty dir to put it in | 04:41 |
| GreaseMonkey | mkdir /mnt/sda1 | 04:41 |
| dr_willis | or take the 60 sec to look at the mount factoid url ;) | 04:41 |
| GreaseMonkey | mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 | 04:41 |
| GreaseMonkey | or that URL, yeah | 04:41 |
| GreaseMonkey | for FAT filesystems sometimes i have to also shove in a -t msdosfs, too | 04:41 |
| dr_willis | -t auto works in most cases | 04:41 |
| dr_willis | and the mountpoint HAS to exist first... | 04:42 |
| evilytwisted | quick question... which i dont think has any relevance.. but just pointing it out here anyway... | 04:42 |
| evilytwisted | I had visual acces to the external hardrive before using it as a storage spage for my xbox 360.. | 04:42 |
| evilytwisted | Upon adding stuff to it... saves.. profiles.. etc.. | 04:42 |
| evilytwisted | it doesnt seem to work anymore.. like showing it even exist from the file systems | 04:43 |
| dr_willis | xbox360 uses exfat I think? ive never owned one | 04:43 |
| JokesOnYou77 | How do I replace wine1.5 with wine1.4? | 04:43 |
| GreaseMonkey | ah, i get it | 04:43 |
| dr_willis | !pin | 04:43 |
| ubottu | pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 04:43 |
| dr_willis | you can pin and force the use of the older wine | 04:43 |
| GreaseMonkey | i get a glimpse of "umount: / is busy" when it shuts down, which might explain in part why / isn't unmounted properly | 04:43 |
| GreaseMonkey | as to what's holding it back, how would i find that out? | 04:43 |
| alexhairyman | gnight | 04:44 |
| gnomefreak | pinning was never worth it to me | 04:44 |
| guideX | hey guys | 04:44 |
| GreaseMonkey | JokesOnYou77: what's your reason for doing that? | 04:44 |
| guideX | been a brain opening couple of days :) | 04:44 |
| GreaseMonkey | (then again i personally build wine from source) | 04:44 |
| dr_willis | theres ways to have specific wine versions for specific apps... i recall | 04:45 |
| evilytwisted | and wehn trying to umount the device /sda1 it states this http://pastebin.com/rFrPQSSM GreaseMonkey | 04:45 |
| GreaseMonkey | WINEPREFIX= | 04:45 |
| GreaseMonkey | evilytwisted: df -h | 04:45 |
| guideX | so is there any way (as a developer) I can contribute? | 04:45 |
| GreaseMonkey | might tell you where the mounting's happening | 04:45 |
| JokesOnYou77 | GreaseMonkey, I'm trying to get Half Life 1 to work properly and I've tried PlayOnLinux and pure wine and neither works. I'm hoping a different wine version will help | 04:45 |
| GreaseMonkey | JokesOnYou77: check winehq | 04:46 |
| GreaseMonkey | appdb.winehq.org | 04:46 |
| gnomefreak | do most people use Wine for gaming more than other stuff? | 04:46 |
| GreaseMonkey | pretty much | 04:46 |
| JokesOnYou77 | GreaseMonkey, I did Half Life has a much better rating on wine 1.4 | 04:46 |
| JokesOnYou77 | http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=8 | 04:46 |
| GreaseMonkey | there should be some instructions on how to get it to behave properly | 04:47 |
| dr_willis | Hmm wonder if Halflife is in the Native Linux Steam Client. | 04:47 |
| evilytwisted | GreaseMonkey: yeah im a idiot.. But care to explain something? http://pastebin.com/p44j8brX | 04:47 |
| GreaseMonkey | evilytwisted: all i can say is lay off the sugary lollies | 04:48 |
| GreaseMonkey | you are doing it very, very wrong | 04:48 |
| hillary | not working eclipse ubuntu 12.04 | 04:48 |

| crazycory22 | Ok question...My laptop has a Dell 1395 mini PCIe wifi network card in it | 05:57 |
| crazycory22 | the wifi card doesn't work in Ubuntu 12.04 as the b43 drivers are blacklisted | 05:58 |
| aeon-ltd | purloined: no idea, didn't get through the whole page of comments, if you still have the old kernels just try them | 05:58 |
| purloined | ok if all else fails i'll just rm -r -f /* and go cry myself to sleep | 05:59 |
| purloined | maybe i'll reinstall and have better luck tomorrow | 05:59 |
| crazycory22 | I found my RALink USB wifi adapter, and it works in Ubuntu 12.10 on my desktop compute,r but it won't work on the laptop, and i'm assuming it's because of the built in wifi card. Does Ubuntu NOT allow two wifi adapters to be installed in the same system? | 05:59 |
| McFaggleton | crazycory22: have you tried using ifconfig to bring down your other wireless card? | 06:01 |

| Cavemanross | I'm trying to install drivers from a folder in my Desktop using sudo ./scripts/driver-select ath9k but its not working any ideas? | 06:37 |
| dr_willis | does it give any output or error messages? | 06:37 |
| Cavemanross | command not found | 06:38 |
| Cavemanross | this is how the readme file and website says to install it | 06:38 |
| guest-Hn7vgH | hey guys is there mrouter for ubuntu ? | 06:38 |
| dr_willis | what is giveing that exactly? that whole command? | 06:38 |
| Cavemanross | linuxwireless.org | 06:38 |
| dr_willis | You do have a scripts directory? | 06:38 |
| Cavemanross | ya | 06:38 |
| dr_willis | guest-Hn7vgH: and for the second time whats mrouter? | 06:39 |
| Cavemanross | dir shows scripts and in scripts is the file driver-select | 06:39 |
| dr_willis | Cavemanross: is that file executable? | 06:39 |
| Cavemanross | its a shell script | 06:39 |
| dr_willis | ls -l ./scripts/driver-select | 06:39 |
| ikk- | how to listen port tcp 80 without sudo ? | 06:39 |
| dr_willis | yes its a script.. but IS it executable | 06:40 |
| Cavemanross | not sure how to tell. when i open it from folder it opens up code in gedit | 06:40 |
| guest-Hn7vgH | Mrouter is a software which enables internet transfer from laptop to mobile via bluetooth or wifi. | 06:40 |
| Cavemanross | it says the script allows you to select your compat-wireless driver | 06:41 |
| dr_willis | theres dozens of ways to transfer files from one ubuntu box to another.... | 06:41 |
| dr_willis | Cavemanross: yes.. but IS it set executable? it has to be executuable for you to be able to run it.... | 06:42 |
| dr_willis | ls -l ./scripts/driver-select | 06:42 |
| ouyes | dr_willis, why just name one | 06:42 |

| Cavemanross | when i type that it outputs -rw-rw-w-- 1 ross 11580 Apr 17 2012 ./scripts/driver-select | 06:43 |
| dr_willis | Cavemanross: so the answer is No its not executable... make it executable 'chmod +x ./scripts/thatscriptname' | 06:43 |
| Cavemanross | ok | 06:44 |
| Cavemanross | it says no such file or directory... | 06:45 |
| Cavemanross | what the heck | 06:45 |
| dr_willis | whats the exact command you are using? | 06:45 |
| chamunks | if I installed zentyal via the apt-get install method from here http://trac.zentyal.org/wiki/Documentation/Community/Installation/InstallationGuide on a server that already had a lamp stack setup with vhosts n such where would I look to access zentyal or find out where it went and how to find it. | 06:46 |
| Cavemanross | 'chmod +x ./scripts/driver-select' | 06:46 |
| Cavemanross | looks like that worked now. | 06:47 |
| dr_willis | use tab key to complete filenames and paths. ;) helps prevent typos | 06:47 |
| Cavemanross | i then tried to run it with ./scripts/driver-select ath9k | 06:47 |
| Cavemanross | right on i always forget when to use that | 06:48 |
| Cavemanross | so when it ran it said processing new driver-select | 06:48 |
| Cavemanross | and ran 5 different backup exists: and 5 backing up makefile | 06:48 |
| Cavemanross | so after i run the script exe the next instruction is to type make | 06:51 |
| Cavemanross | but it gives me error 126 | 06:51 |
| Cavemanross | sudo make also gives me the error | 06:51 |
| Cavemanross | permission denied | 06:52 |
| dr_willis | no more detailed error message? | 06:53 |
| gdeeble | Hey, curiosity, anyone out there played with LIRC at all that might be able to help figure out a small problem? | 06:55 |
| chamunks | Anyone know anything about zentyal here? | 06:55 |
| chamunks | someone was reccomending I try it out for a webmin replacement. | 06:55 |
| antonio2 | Hey folks... | 06:56 |
| dr_willis | Ive heard it works well.. but ive never needed it. | 06:56 |
| SAngeli | does ubuntu server come with ntfs-3g installed or do I have to install it manually? | 06:56 |
| chamunks | dr_willis: you responding to me? | 06:56 |
| antonio2 | So now i need to try to get this working | 06:56 |
| Cavemanross | ya its long... /bin/sh: 1: ./compat/scripts/gen-compat-config.sh: Permission denied make: ***[/home/ross/......] Error 126 | 06:56 |
| gdeeble | Depending chamunks. I run it here at home as a small file server and web server. It's relatively easy to use | 06:56 |
| dr_willis | chamunks: thats about all i know on zental ;) | 06:56 |
| antonio2 | Is there anyway to repair a borked system with a live cd rather than reinstalling? | 06:57 |
| dr_willis | SAngeli: i thought it came with ntfs-3g by default. if not its quick to install | 06:57 |
| chamunks | gdeeble: I'm just curious about where its webgui is and what its using to host the webserver because I have apache already installed. | 06:57 |
| davey486 | I need to know how to determine what key presses my remote is sending to the computer, is there a way to do that? | 06:57 |
| dr_willis | antonio2: depends on how messed up it is | 06:57 |
| chamunks | I have no idea where it installed exactly I see nothing in etc for configs | 06:57 |
| mjuszczak | How much will LVM and full disk encryption slow down an install of Ubuntu 12.10? Are we talking 5-10% or more like 50%? | 06:57 |
| dr_willis | davey486: run 'xev' from a terminal. cluck in the xev window.. press buttons | 06:58 |
| gdeeble | I couldn't tell ya for sure. I wanna say it runs as an inetd service, as I run a front facing web server for testing and can still access it. | 06:58 |
| antonio2 | Dr_willis: how would i go about fixing it? | 06:58 |
| davey486 | k, ill try | 06:58 |
| dr_willis | mjuszczak: i doubt if it will be a 50% slowdown. | 06:58 |
| dr_willis | antonio2: depends on what is messed up.... so far you have said.. 'its broke.. how do i fix' | 06:59 |
| gdeeble | It uses https for the webui and normal http for Apache chamunks. That's how I run it at least. | 06:59 |
| antonio2 | Basically i cant get into the login.... | 06:59 |
| dr_willis | can you login at the console? | 06:59 |
| chamunks | gdeeble: its strange it seems like it might not have actually installed almost | 06:59 |
| antonio2 | How do you login in console? | 07:00 |
| chamunks | I installed via its install guide's apt repo's and apt-fast | 07:00 |
| ikk- | how to run mywebapp -p 80 without sudo ? | 07:00 |
| davey486 | dr_wilis- It reported unable to open '' | 07:00 |
| dr_willis | ikk-: I dont think you do.. unless you set it up as a service that runs as root. or use the suid bit.. (not a good idea) | 07:00 |
| antonio2 | Also does anyone know if you can tether a droid via the charging cord to get internet access? | 07:00 |
| gdeeble | chamunks: I would go to their site and grab a copy and run it on a virtual machine to see if it works best. | 07:01 |
| ikk- | dr_willis: ok,I'll try to set a service | 07:01 |
| ikk- | dr_willis: thanks | 07:01 |
| SAngeli | dr_willis, I ask you this because after waiting for a 1.5TB HD 1/2 day for format it failed to mount (ubuntu NTFS signature is missing). So I was trying to understand if ntfs-3g is part or not of ubunto. Can you help me out finding out and perhaps telling me which package to run? | 07:01 |
| chamunks | gdeeble: this is odd I think it didnt run correctly its actually giving me the config stuff where before it didn't so we're all set now afaik | 07:01 |
| dr_willis | antonio2: you should be able to teather with android. | 07:01 |
| chamunks | gdeeble: my issue is I need to do it via the apt because I cant alter the remote server that thoroughly. | 07:02 |
| dr_willis | SAngeli: 1/2 a day? err.. that shouldent take more then like 20 min.. | 07:02 |
| SAngeli | dr_willis, It did not | 07:02 |
| SAngeli | it was perfecly working under ext4 | 07:02 |
| dr_willis | SAngeli: this isent some weird raid/lvm/oddball setup? | 07:02 |
| davey486 | is xev part of a package? I don't have it installed | 07:02 |
| dr_willis | !find xev | 07:03 |
| ubottu | Found: libxcb-xevie0, libxcb-xevie0-dbg, libxcb-xevie0-dev, xevil | 07:03 |
| dr_willis | hmm.. think its xev, its a x input event logger. | 07:03 |
| SAngeli | dr_willis, I have mdadm running and have formatted the array. mkfs.ntfs ... | 07:03 |
| dr_willis | just prints out all x eents it gets. | 07:03 |
| gdeeble | chamunks: I understand. I did a fresh install so the install via apt, I am of no use. I can help with understanding the inner working once installed for the most part, but the install i'm a waste of space.. LOL | 07:03 |
| dr_willis | SAngeli: then i have no idea on that ussage of it with ntfs. I only use ntfs on simple drive partions. | 07:03 |
| davey486 | ill google it, thanks for pointing me in the right direction | 07:04 |
| SAngeli | dr_willis, ok, but I wish to know if ntfs-3g is native of current ubuntu server version (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Precise Pangolin) when i run mkfs.ntfs or if I have to install it | 07:04 |
| SAngeli | dr_willis, how to find out? I faild doing these researches | 07:05 |
| dr_willis | if mkfs.ntfs exists then you have the ntfs-3g package installed. | 07:05 |
| antonio2 | Damn...irc app shutdown.. | 07:05 |
| antonio2 | Sorry dr willis..what were you saying? | 07:05 |
| dr_willis | the #ubuntu-server guys may know if its installed b default on a server install | 07:05 |
| dr_willis | antonio2: you should be able to teather with android. | 07:06 |
| davey486 | dr-willis- I see, its needs xwindows, i have ubuntu minimalistic install with xbmc running, no xserver | 07:06 |
| SAngeli | dr_willis, is there a way to display it / to check on package name? | 07:06 |
| chamunks | gdeeble: its cool I may ping you again knowing you know some stuff about it. | 07:06 |
| dr_willis | SAngeli: sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g | 07:06 |
| antonio2 | How can i tether my droid? | 07:06 |

| histo | dr_willis: sorry meant this link https://github.com/ubergeek42/weechat-android/wiki/Quickstart-Guide | 07:23 |
| === Archdave is now known as A_Dave | ||
| nodii | Thank you kindly dr_willis :) | 07:24 |
| histo | antonio2: did you sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm ? | 07:24 |
| Ashael | nodii: gnome-look.org has many that are suitable for Ubuntu as well | 07:24 |
| histo | antonio2: also did you add the ppa and when did you start having issues? | 07:24 |
| antonio2 | I think i did that sudo cmd | 07:25 |
| dr_willis | just downloading theme 'files' from sites can be confuseing. ;) you can get old themes and stuff mixxed in with things that just dont work. | 07:25 |
| nodii | Thank you @Ashael | 07:25 |
| === TomyLobo2 is now known as TomyLobo | ||
| dr_willis | I find it easier to just use some theme ppa collection | 07:25 |
| histo | antonio2: well where did you start experiencing problems? Also you are installing software that isn't really supported when you start using ppa's and stuff. | 07:25 |
| Cavemanross | Well dr_willis... thank you for the help today. Didnt get it working yet but i shall persist | 07:25 |
| dr_willis | histo: checking it out now. | 07:25 |
| Ashael | nodii: and I highly recommend installing Mint's Cinnamon GUI instead of Unity - http://cinnamon.linuxmint.com/ | 07:25 |
| Cavemanross | i at least learned a little about ubuntu and stuff reading more. | 07:25 |
| thufir_ | how do I mount this device as a mass storage usb device? it shows in lsusb as MediaTek: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.user/265086 | 07:26 |
| antonio2 | I got problems as soon as i r3started | 07:26 |
| Ashael | toodles | 07:26 |
| nodii | I will check them out thanks Ashael. | 07:26 |
| antonio2 | Doing that sudo...should i pick lightdm | 07:26 |
| antonio2 | ? | 07:26 |
| histo | antonio2: according to the tutorial you should pick gdm. Although I don't udnerstand why they are doing that. | 07:27 |
| histo | antonio2: Do you have console access to the box? | 07:27 |
| antonio2 | Term? | 07:27 |
| antonio2 | Im in term noe | 07:27 |
| antonio2 | Noe | 07:27 |
| histo | antonio2: yes | 07:27 |
| antonio2 | Now..damn droid ;) | 07:28 |
| histo | antonio2: You are in a terminal? | 07:28 |
| antonio2 | Yeah | 07:28 |
| histo | antonio2: okay well choose gdm and sudo restart gdm | 07:28 |
| histo | antonio2: let me know if you get to a login screen | 07:28 |
| antonio2 | Says read only fs | 07:28 |
| histo | antonio2: what'd you boot to recovery mode? | 07:29 |
| antonio2 | Yeah | 07:29 |
| histo | antonio2: boot to normal mode and hit ctrl+alt+f1 to get to console | 07:29 |
| histo | antonio2: assuming that login manager doesn't come up. | 07:29 |
| antonio2 | Did that..grub came up | 07:30 |
| histo | thufir_: what kind of phone? | 07:31 |
| histo | antonio2: hit enter to boot the normal mode | 07:31 |
| dr_willis | mooo | 07:31 |
| dr_willis | Heh - it works histo ;) | 07:31 |
| antonio2 | K | 07:32 |
| dr_willis | relayed to my weechat thats connected to the znc server ;) | 07:32 |
| histo | dr_willis: the one thing i noticed with that relay is it sends more data then it needs to. But dev is looking into that. | 07:32 |
| histo | dr_willis: yeah it's pretty tight | 07:32 |
| antonio2 | Nothing | 07:32 |
| sakkemo | Hi. In xterm, instead of getting ^[a with Alt+a, I get á. Same for the other letters. This is Ubuntu 12.10. Is this the default behaviour and what should I use to change it? For the record I have installed only i3 (rather than Gnome and/or Unity). | 07:32 |
| dr_willis | i dont see what i type... hmmm | 07:32 |
| histo | antonio2: Nothing meaning???? I can't see your screen remember. | 07:32 |
| histo | dr_willis: it will update. | 07:33 |
| antonio2 | Shows that gnome blue screen...no login box and no cursor | 07:33 |
| dr_willis | on the client | 07:33 |
| histo | dr_willis: mine did but I haven't tested the most recent version. He just updated the app. | 07:33 |
| dr_willis | yea. i will heep an eye on it | 07:33 |
| histo | antonio2: Okay well that's not nothing. So X is workign the issue is with gdm then. | 07:34 |
| antonio2 | Ah.. | 07:34 |
| antonio2 | I see something that says | 07:34 |
| antonio2 | Starting load fallback graphics devices fail | 07:35 |
| histo | antonio2: I haven't used gdm in awhile so I'm not sure. I thought they changed where you had to click an icon or something to get prompted for login. | 07:35 |
| histo | antonio2: did it dump you back into a text console? | 07:35 |
| antonio2 | Nope | 07:35 |
| histo | dr_willis: keep in mind it's a very young app with not many users. I made a few suggestions to him the other day. | 07:36 |
| histo | antonio2: Do you ahve a mouse pointer on the screen? | 07:36 |
| antonio2 | I hit f1 and it shows a list of things...all starting with *starting | 07:36 |
| antonio2 | Nope | 07:36 |
| dr_willis | histo: my #1 thing is - how to easially disabel the timestamp. ;) its taking up to much space.. heh | 07:36 |
| dr_willis | histo: but i noticved it worked for about 2 min.. then stopped echoing what was going on in here.. will try it without the znc stuff here later | 07:37 |
| Cavemanross | why would it say rfkill: command not found | 07:37 |
| Cavemanross | shouldn't that have loaded standard when i installed ubuntu 12.10? | 07:37 |
| histo | antonio2: press ctrl+alt+f2 see if you get to a text login screen. | 07:37 |
| dr_willis | !find rfkill | 07:37 |

| Cavemanross | it says i can install using apt-get install rfkill but that doesnt do it either... | 07:39 |
| histo | Cavemanross: That made no sense | 07:40 |
| Cavemanross | the rfkill command is not installed | 07:40 |
| dr_willis | arinov: ask again when they actually get released | 07:40 |
| Cavemanross | when i try sudo rfkill unblock all | 07:40 |
| histo | Cavemanross: then sudo apt-get install rfkill | 07:40 |
| arinov | dr_willis: hmm when? | 07:41 |
| Cavemanross | ya it wont install because im not online. | 07:41 |

| histo | Cavemanross: kind of hard to install that way without being online. So read the advice from ubottu for installing packages from offline mode. | 07:41 |
| Cavemanross | ill try that. ive already tried that with my wireless drivers but still cant get online | 07:41 |
| dr_willis | antonio2: backup imporntant data.. reinstall... | 07:42 |
| Cavemanross | ya | 07:42 |
| histo | Cavemanross: Do you have a wire you can temporarily use. | 07:42 |
| Cavemanross | it wont connect either. | 07:42 |
| Cavemanross | my professor said it looked like my computer was stuck in airplane mode some how | 07:42 |
| histo | antonio2: Well next tiem I wouldn't use ppa's and howto's from all over the web. You run the risk of this happening. | 07:42 |
| histo | antonio2: Can you get to a text login? | 07:43 |
| dr_willis | there was no need to use ppas to get gnome shell on 12.10 unless you wanted the latest gnome-shell | 07:43 |
| antonio2 | Can i do it via recov mode? | 07:43 |
| histo | Cavemanross: What chipset is on your network card? | 07:43 |
| histo | antonio2: yeah if it doesn't get mounted rw | 07:43 |

| histo | not rw jesus | 07:44 |

| hillary | ADT plugins in aptana studio IDE not installing may be am getting it wrong. Any straightforward link i follow? | 07:47 |
| histo | Cavemanross: And the wired card doesn't work also? | 07:48 |
| Cavemanross | i tried it yesterday and wasn't getting any response. | 07:48 |
| antonio2 | Im in tern... | 07:49 |
| antonio2 | Think its read only thougj | 07:49 |
| histo | Cavemanross: make sure you wire is good | 07:49 |
| dr_willis | look at the output of the mount command antonio2 to see | 07:49 |
| histo | antonio2: try sudo touch filename | 07:49 |
| antonio2 | How can i get into term with rw capabilities | 07:49 |
| antonio2 | Read only | 07:50 |
| dr_willis | sudo mount -o remount,rw / | 07:50 |
| Cavemanross | you might be right, i used a wire from another connection that hasn't been working, but where would i even go from there? | 07:50 |

| hillary | Android Development Tools plugins in aptana studio IDE not installing may be am getting it wrong. Any straightforward link i follow? | 07:50 |
| histo | Cavemanross: then you can atleast try ndiswrapper or some other drivers if the stock ones are working. What does sudo iwlist scan do? | 07:51 |
| antonio2 | Its now rw | 07:51 |
| Cavemanross | support not scanning: network is down | 07:51 |
| Cavemanross | i can install drivers by burning them to cd | 07:51 |
| histo | antonio2: remove that ppa and the other gnome3 garbage you installed and switch back to lightdm. Then make sure ubuntu-desktop is installed. Then make sure that works. | 07:51 |
| Gunpowder | does anyone use Nmap here? :) | 07:51 |
| Cavemanross | you think ndiswrapper will work | 07:52 |
| dr_willis | lots of people use nmap Gunpowder | 07:52 |
| histo | Gunpowder: yes | 07:52 |
| Cavemanross | i tried other suggested drivers. | 07:52 |
| Gunpowder | sweet! | 07:52 |

| histo | Cavemanross: sudo lsmod | grep ath | 07:52 |
| antonio2 | Hmm...cant remember what the ppa is called | 07:52 |
| dr_willis | antonio2: disable all of them perhaps? | 07:52 |
| histo | Cavemanross: does it show the ath9k driver loaded? or lspci -k It think will show which driver for which devices | 07:53 |
| Cavemanross | i got about 5 listings, all showing ath9k | 07:53 |
| Cavemanross | ya | 07:53 |
| antonio2 | How can you disable all? | 07:53 |
| Cavemanross | ath9k | 07:53 |
| dr_willis | antonio2: do you have networking working on that thing or not? | 07:53 |
| histo | antonio2: check in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 07:53 |
| antonio2 | Nope | 07:53 |
| histo | Cavemanross: confirm with lspci -k that the network adapter is suing atk9k | 07:54 |
| Cavemanross | kernel driver in use: ath9k | 07:54 |
| dr_willis | move all the junk from /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ to like /root/old-sources.list.d/ | 07:54 |
| antonio2 | Should i run sudo gedit on that file? | 07:54 |
| Cavemanross | for the atheros network controller | 07:54 |
| dr_willis | antonio2: its not a file.. its a directory of files... look in there and see whats there | 07:54 |
| dr_willis | cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 07:55 |

| histo | cantah: cluster? | 08:45 |

| guideX | is the ubuntu 13 usable or different than 12.10 much? | 08:46 |
| howcode | ubuntu: my wireless keeps disconnecting on ubuntu but not on other OSs, can anyone help me? it might disconnect now so please bare with me.. | 08:46 |
| histo | guideX: 13 is discussed in #ubuntu+1 | 08:46 |
| histo | yourimym1: did you try the driver from nvidia.com? | 08:46 |
| keelG | cantah: I think that would be a quiestion for #ubuntu-server | 08:46 |
| youconsulting | Why does sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart does not work anymore? Am I that old? | 08:47 |
| histo | howcode: what chipset? | 08:47 |
| cantah | histo: yes, keelG: cool will have a look over there | 08:47 |
| yourimym1 | didnt know how to use it | 08:47 |
| keelG | youconsulting: restart does not. However stop & start does - else use sudo service blabla restart | 08:47 |
| yourimym1 | or find it neither | 08:47 |
| histo | yourimym1: you sudo ./nameoffiledownloaded.run | 08:47 |
| dr_willis | guideX: non lts releases tend to be more 'experimental' in the changes they do,. so from what ive seen its got quiet a bit of differances | 08:47 |
| histo | !nvidia | yourimym1 This page explains the different versions. | 08:48 |
| ubottu | yourimym1 This page explains the different versions.: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 08:48 |
| youconsulting | keelG: it says unknown instance | 08:48 |
| histo | yourimym1: you basically go to nvidia and download drivers for linux. That will give you a .run file. You can execute that file and it walks you through the install | 08:48 |
| howcode | histo: how can i find my chipset? is there a command? | 08:48 |
| histo | keelG: I don't think sudo restart networking works either. | 08:49 |
| histo | howcode: lspci | 08:49 |
| yourimym1 | what if problem remains ? | 08:49 |
| histo | yourimym1: smash with hammer | 08:49 |
| histo | yourimym1: IDK you'd have to find a driver that works with your hardware or by a card that has better linux support. | 08:49 |
| histo | yourimym1: In my experience the drivers from nvidia usally work better with newer hardware such as yours. | 08:50 |
| howcode | histo: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6230 (rev 34) | 08:50 |

| israel | This is a very basic question: When I use the console how do I get the last used command that I typed in? | 08:51 |
| yourimym1 | is my win specs suits 12.10 histo ? | 08:51 |
| howcode | histo: it's for wireless, and i don't have an ethernet port so i dont think i have an ethernet driver | 08:51 |
| JZApples | So I'm new to rsync. I'm trying to sync the folders with files from one computer to the other. Problem is the files on the destination computer are spread out across multiple drives. I want all the source folders from A-S to go to one drive and the rest (T-Z) to go to a different drive. I'm in the process of writing a script to automate this when I need to. Is there a way to do this? | 08:51 |

| yourimym1 | that one should work ! http://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/56283 | 08:58 |
| histo | yourimym1: the nvidia.com driver can be installed by running it with sudo. Opena terminal ctrl+alt+t and cd ~/Downloads Then sudo ./NVIDIA.blahblah.run | 08:58 |
| histo | yourimym1: why are you on geforce.com? | 08:58 |
| ikonia | a good questin | 08:59 |
| histo | yourimym1: if that's the one for your card yes | 08:59 |
| yourimym1 | i've entered nvidia and lead me to this | 08:59 |
| histo | ikonia: nvidia changed there site | 08:59 |
| ikonia | question | 08:59 |
| dr_willis | actually you may need to stop X befor you can run that .run installer ;) | 08:59 |
| yourimym1 | dr williis , me ?? | 09:00 |
| dr_willis | yes | 09:00 |
| yourimym1 | instruction plz | 09:00 |
| histo | yourimym1: there should be a readme with the file. If I remember correctly | 09:01 |
| histo | yourimym1: you may have to uncompress it first | 09:01 |
| histo | tar -xvzf NVIDIA*.tar.gz | 09:02 |
| yourimym1 | tar -xvzf NVIDIA*.tar.gz , i write this in termnal ??? | 09:03 |
| dr_willis | yes.... | 09:04 |
| dr_willis | assuming the file is in the current directory | 09:04 |
| yourimym1 | i wish that driver may solve my problems , same 4 u guys | 09:04 |
| yourimym1 | where i put the file in right directory | 09:05 |
| dr_willis | theres no guarentees the .run drivers will fix anything | 09:05 |
| yourimym1 | wait what :D | 09:05 |
| histo | yourimym1: there is no guaranty that it will fix the issue but it is definately worth trying. | 09:07 |
| yourimym1 | waiting 4 driver download , crossing my fingers | 09:07 |
| histo | yourimym1: What is the file called that is downloading does it end with tar.gz? | 09:08 |
| yourimym1 | histo ; NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-295.53 but download isn't done yet | 09:09 |
| dr_willis | no extension like .run or .tgz ? | 09:09 |

| dr_willis | there ya go then. No need to extract.. | 09:09 |
| histo | yourimym1: have you used the terminal at all before? | 09:10 |
| yourimym1 | i can use it when someone give me right commands | 09:10 |

| prih | irc.openjoke.org | 09:15 |

| ebuser | the normal place for what? | 09:16 |
| dr_willis | for downlolads for yourimym1 | 09:16 |
| yourimym1 | do i chose it from additonal driver after installing ? or it's become default ? | 09:17 |
| === lewq_ is now known as lewq | ||
| dr_willis | yourimym1: you are overriding the drivers from the repos.. You should deactivate any nvidia drivers you are using from the addational-drivers tool first.. BEFOR running that .run tool | 09:17 |
| yourimym1 | how do i disable he current nouviea driver then ? | 09:18 |
| dr_willis | You dont need to dosable the Nouvea drivers | 09:18 |
| yourimym1 | oh , sorry for my stupidity :) | 09:19 |
| histo | dr_willis: he's currently using nouveou ... well atleast in the paste he provided | 09:19 |
| yourimym1 | yes it's nouviea chkd again | 09:20 |
| ebuser | how do i tell what video driver i am currently using? | 09:21 |
| dr_willis | when its downloaded. you will need to most likely Stop the X server in order to install it. yourimym1 .. make the file executable --> 'chmod +x foo.run' (use the right name) then 'sudo service lightdm stop' to stop X. then login at the console and cd to whever the file is at.. and sudo ./foo.run | 09:22 |

| yourimym1 | so i have to restart | 09:28 |
| prih | who can i help me? | 09:28 |
| l057c0d3r_ | yourimym1, its because it causes your xserver to close | 09:28 |
| dr_willis | yourimym1: you dident read what i said... | 09:28 |
| dr_willis | when its downloaded. you will need to most likely Stop the X server in order to install it. yourimym1 .. make the file executable --> 'chmod +x foo.run' (use the right name) then 'sudo service lightdm stop' to stop X. then login at the console and cd to whever the file is at.. and sudo ./foo.run | 09:29 |
| dr_willis | note i said it will STOP X. | 09:29 |

| l057c0d3r_ | so dr_willis you think that would cause any issues on the system | 09:30 |

| dr_willis | I dont use wubi. ;) | 09:31 |
| l057c0d3r_ | well its a wubi install | 09:31 |
| keelG | histo & youconsulting if its head-less, you should be able to - if you are running desktop /w network-manager, try sudo service network-manager restart | 09:31 |

| phoenixsampras | how to defragment? | 09:32 |
| yourimym1 | cant use that command to make . run executable | 09:32 |
| l057c0d3r_ | right now due to system space limits with the wubi i have steam linked to the /host folder ( which s actually the windows drive) and it seems to be working fine.. so i was thinking that it could work for the whole /home directory in theory | 09:32 |
| dr_willis | nydel: i rarely have to dig into the apt system that much. so im not sure what to suggest | 09:33 |
| nydel | phoenixsampras: linux filesystem doesn't require defragmentation i do not believe | 09:33 |
| dr_willis | yourimym1: give us details... exact command used.. exact error message.... and so forth... you know the drill. ;) | 09:33 |
| dr_willis | !defrag | 09:33 |

| l057c0d3r_ | nydel, what exactly is wrong with your dpkg? | 09:33 |
| nydel | dr_willis: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/1611836/ maybe the point where it hangs might mean something to you? i don't know what it's doing at all, you're more likely to have a better stab in the dark | 09:34 |
| l057c0d3r_ | vnc786, that is most likely the native display for your screen.. or the highest it supports | 09:34 |

| xf2 | jluc. I've been annoyed with this for years. It seems like the window borders are a pixel wide sometimes. | 09:53 |
| Osakasa^ | jluc, CompizConfig Setting Manager has an option to move window and resize them. Go to CCSM and Move window -> iniate window move (shortcut you want, i have alt+button1) | 09:53 |
| nydel | l057c0d3r_: i'm on it. | 09:53 |
| Osakasa^ | jluc, resize same thing, alt + button2 | 09:53 |
| jluc | alt+F2 Osakasa^ ? | 09:54 |
| yourimym1 | consle problem with user name ,not password | 09:54 |
| l057c0d3r_ | nydel that will attempt to fix broken packages first.. which might help with your dpkg --configure since it seems to be hanging on the last linux-header .. which might have been what was being isntalled / downloaded when the updater stoped working | 09:54 |
| yourimym1 | solved sry :D | 09:54 |
| Osakasa^ | jluc, you can set the shortcut as you want | 09:54 |
| l057c0d3r_ | yourimym1, make sure the username is all lowercase | 09:55 |

| Osakasa^ | jluc, there is a mouse icon, ofc use that if you want to move/resize windows with a mouse | 09:55 |
| nydel | l057c0d3r_: i think it's working, updated smoothly enough & the software update popped up to do the partial upgrade. i'll try it now. thank you -- back afterward | 09:56 |
| jluc | i am in the config settings manager Osakasa^ i see i can define shortcuts is that what you mean ? what command should it be ? | 09:57 |
| Osakasa^ | jluc, find Move window | 09:58 |

| === giogio is now known as BIG-giogio | ||
| jluc | ok button2 is middle button | 10:01 |
| jluc | i got it ! | 10:01 |

| jluc | ALT+middle button does the trick !!! | 10:01 |
| jluc | Aaaahhhhh :-D | 10:01 |
| Osakasa^ | nice ☺ | 10:01 |
| l057c0der | dont need a second hand :-p once you hit alt-function-f8 it triggers the resize.. then you just move the mosue :-p but glad you go tit | 10:02 |

| dr_willis | and your bash prompt changes to show where you are at... the pwd command will confirm... and the ls command will show the files | 10:10 |
| l057c0der | ls -a for hidden files.. | 10:10 |
| l057c0der | if there are to many files to see on the screen then ls | more or ls | less will help as well | 10:10 |

| brahmana | (with a couple of other commands in between) | 11:08 |
| stickDeath | ThinkT510: yes yes 12.10 | 11:08 |
| brahmana | The stop was successful, however it is not starting back up now.. | 11:08 |

| savagecroc | ahh no | 12:44 |
| usr13 | savagecroc: Why not? | 12:44 |
| savagecroc | because it doesn't compile it with all the modules i need | 12:44 |
| usr13 | savagecroc: It is always best to use the package manager. | 12:44 |

| EdwardL | Hello. Running Ubuntu 10.04 and I was trying to upgrade the alsa-plugins and I believe I broke something after many uninstalls and reinstalls. Right now, Ubuntu won't load to a Desktop but just sits there blinking its 5 lights. Can someone help me fix this? | 14:47 |
| helplessMinecraf | i downloaded and ran minecraft one time on a perfectly working ubuntu installation, and now the wireless card isn't functioning on that install, or anything else. Is there some kind of cmos setting on the card that could have been flipped, or am i out of luck? | 14:47 |

| l057c0d3r | yourimym1, maybe try a sudo update-initramfs -u | 14:51 |
| l057c0d3r | you did reinstall the nouveau package right | 14:51 |

| ghargoil | how do I append root=<whatever> as a boot option in GRUB? | 14:55 |
| l057c0d3r | my god his stuff is messed up | 14:58 |
| l057c0d3r | that history log was almost impossible to follow | 14:59 |
| l057c0d3r | but i think i know where he's messing up | 14:59 |
| genii-around | ghargoil: During boot, select the entry you want to edit, hit the "e" key, add the root=<whatever> stanza, hit F10 to boot with that. If update-grub is not already putting the correct entry for whatever that entry is, you may need to manually go to /etc/grub.d/40_custom and create your own entry if you want it to be generated every time a new kernel is installed. Some OS like Android-X86 for instance are not detected by os-prober and need this | 15:01 |

| seanw95 | Hello? | 15:02 |
| seanw95 | Can somewhere here give me some advice? | 15:02 |
| seanw95 | someone* | 15:03 |
| === francisco is now known as Guest8850 | ||
| ghargoil | genii-around: thanks! -- yeah, I'm trying to figure it out, but apparently it won't mount any of the drives.... at least the ones it says it detected | 15:03 |
| DJones | seanw95: People won't know whether they can or not until you ask your real question | 15:03 |
| seanw95 | Well I was having a problem earlier and was talking to a few guys in this IRC. Very helpful but couldn't solve my problem...so I posted on the forums here. | 15:04 |
| seanw95 | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2112599 | 15:04 |
| seanw95 | Then I read somewhere something about installing ubuntu to a partition through windows | 15:04 |
| seanw95 | can create problems, I was wondering if this could be a possible cause? | 15:04 |
| ThinkT510 | seanw95: wubi is an awful idea | 15:04 |
| killer | i deleted my /boot partition accidently | 15:05 |
| seanw95 | So i've read...Would you reccomend installing it without the windows based installer? | 15:05 |
| ThinkT510 | seanw95: the less windows is involved the better | 15:06 |
| genii-around | ghargoil: Conceivably the filesystem is not marked clean or such. You may need to boot to recovery mode of te same kernel and fsck | 15:06 |
| seanw95 | Could I download the ISO, mount it using deamon tools and install to the partition from there? | 15:06 |
| ThinkT510 | seanw95: why not boot the iso | 15:07 |
| genii-around | ghargoil: Another possibility is that your initial ramdisk does not have the filesystem driver for the type of filesystem you want it to mount during boot | 15:07 |
| seanw95 | my pc has no DVD drive... | 15:07 |
| seanw95 | not possible to emulate a DVD drive without an OS | 15:07 |
| ThinkT510 | seanw95: you can use a usb | 15:08 |
| DJones | !usb | seanw95: Do you have a usb stick? | 15:08 |
| ubottu | seanw95: Do you have a usb stick?: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 15:08 |
| BluesKaj | ThinkT510, for all it's limitations , wubi is still a neat way to introduce ubuntu to windows users with very litttle pain , mostly. | 15:09 |
| dr_willis | a WUBI install can be done with wht wubi.exe and the ubuntu.iso file no need for deamon tools. | 15:09 |
| EdwardL | killer: Sounds like you may need to reinstall everything. | 15:09 |
| ThinkT510 | BluesKaj: i'd much prefer a vm, absolutely more safer | 15:09 |
| ghargoil | genii-around: thanks for the help, I sent a ticket in to ask for some assistance, since the machine might be using some kinda weird setup for the filesystem :/ | 15:09 |
| ado60 | EdwardL: for real ? | 15:10 |
| No_One | wubi is a bad idea, and you should feel bad >.> | 15:10 |
| BluesKaj | vms can be daunting , ThinkT510 ...my experience with windows users is they are mostly cautious about breaking stuff | 15:10 |
| helmut_ | hi | 15:11 |

| killer | EdwardL : kk , i will re-install but i have ubuntu installed on my usb too...and i want that the reinstalled ubuntu should not have grub but should use grub from usb | 15:11 |
| ThinkT510 | BluesKaj: a vm is perfectly safe, thats the whole point of virtualization: a perfect testing environment (muck something up then just start over, nothing is broken) | 15:11 |

| EdwardL | Hello. Running Ubuntu 10.04 and I was trying to upgrade the alsa-plugins and I believe I broke something after many uninstalls and reinstalls. Right now, Ubuntu won't load to a Desktop but just sits there blinking its 5 lights. I can login on another tty, and I can hit esc for other information. Can someone help me fix this? | 15:22 |
| No_One | also, is there i can just login to my computer as root, or is that frowned upon? | 15:22 |
| No_One | there a way* | 15:22 |
| jrib | EdwardL: you should give more information about what exactly you were doing to upgrade alsa-plugins and why it involved so many uninstalls and reinstalls | 15:22 |
| jrib | No_One: not recommended | 15:23 |
| No_One | k | 15:23 |
| Pici | jrib: ah, exactly what I needed. Thanks. | 15:23 |
| BluesKaj | !root | No_One | 15:23 |
| ubottu | No_One: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 15:23 |
| ghargoil | genii-around: ah, not sure, you mean /dev/mapper/<this thing> ? | 15:23 |
| EdwardL | jrib: Wine was complaining about having me upgrade alsa-plugins. There was nothing in the repo, so I googled and downloaded the latest deb they had. When I tried it said dependencies were missing so I tried apt-get -f install, going into synaptic and searching, and it all became a mess where some "re-installs" ended up uninstalling a few things. | 15:25 |
| genii-around | ghargoil: Yes. The first part of the actual device name there tells what kind of driver it is using for the RAID/AHCI driver. For Intel ICH cipset for instance it would be like isw_<something> | 15:25 |
| ghargoil | oh, no, it just is the hostname :/ | 15:25 |
| yourimym1 | does any one know how to restore system ? | 15:26 |
| julian-dephiki | yourimym1: what do you mean | 15:26 |

| madjoe | hi! my installation says No package 'freetype2' found... I'm searching for this package on Ubuntu 12.04, but can't find a straight forward solution how to install this package on my x64 PC | 15:26 |
| ghargoil | genii-around: I'm gonna go make breakfast, but thanks for the help -- I'm just waiting for a ticket now. :/ | 15:26 |
| jrib | EdwardL: we can try to get you back to some working state if you want. However since 10.04 will lose desktop support in april of this year, I'd recommend just installing 12.04 since that way you'll likely resolve your original problem (issues with old wine) and also be ready for april | 15:27 |
| EdwardL | Hm... | 15:27 |
| genii-around | ghargoil: You're welcome. I hope your issue gets a fast resolution. | 15:27 |
| ghargoil | hehe ty... me too | 15:27 |
| yourimym1 | i dont have backup | 15:27 |
| yourimym1 | reinstall then | 15:28 |
| EdwardL | jrib: Reinstall or use 'do-release-upgrade'? | 15:28 |
| yourimym1 | is there way to do reinstalling from termnail ? | 15:28 |
| jrib | EdwardL: uh, good question. You should have backups anyway. If you want to try do-release-upgrade, you can. Worst-case scenario is it fails and then you fresh install anyway | 15:29 |
| madjoe | how to install a package freetype2 on my 12.04 x64? | 15:29 |
| ElysiumNet | why does apache2 behave like malware on ubuntu? I cannot seem to get rid off it whatever I try | 15:29 |
| l057c0d3r | yourimym1, have you tried maybe sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 15:29 |
| MoL0ToV | i'm unable to get working 2 separate desktops on my 2 display connected to my ati graphic card in xubuntu. someone can help me? | 15:29 |
| stevo | ElysiumNet, try: "sudo apt-get purge apache2" from the terminal | 15:30 |
| jrib | ElysiumNet: how are you trying? | 15:30 |
| jacksmithz | is the kernel used in ubuntu, based on the debian kernel or the mainline kernel? | 15:30 |
| ElysiumNet | nevermind, I had to remove apache2-common | 15:30 |
| ElysiumNet | and all the other apache crap that goes with it | 15:30 |
| jrib | ElysiumNet: yes. Alternatively, you should be able to use "apt-get autoremove" to remove packages that were installed as dependencies but no longer required (like apache2.2-common) | 15:31 |
| ElysiumNet | jrib: that did not work | 15:31 |
| jrib | ElysiumNet: you installed it by installing "apache2"? Then you removed the apache2 package and then used autoremove? It /should/ work :/ | 15:31 |
| ElysiumNet | but it did not | 15:32 |
| ElysiumNet | oh well, at least that pest has now been removed | 15:33 |
| isaias | cool | 15:33 |
| genii-around | ElysiumNet: Conceivably you are seeing it's configuration files wich are left behind even if you uninstall it. | 15:33 |
| ElysiumNet | genii-around: no, it was actually booting up on startup... | 15:34 |

| kyotie | ok..im newb to the irc thing...how do I jump to that channel?? can you help me please. | 16:30 |
| mdgeorge | hello. I'm using an nvidia card with multiple monitors, and I sometimes turn the monitors off by cutting the power. When I turn them back on, the screens are all mixed up: half of the left screen is on the right monitor and so on. | 16:30 |
| mdgeorge | any suggestions? | 16:30 |
| mdgeorge | also gnome-shell has crashes (in the same situation). I usually end up switching to a virtual console, running gnome-shell, switching back, and logging out. that fixes it. | 16:31 |
| mdgeorge | but it's a pain in the butt | 16:31 |
| pseudonymous | kyotie: that really depends on your client though, doesn't it ? Normally the command is '/join <channel-name-here>' but you'd have to be conntected to the right IRC server, too. I have no clue where backtrack hosts their irc | 16:32 |
| kyotie | ok thanks pseudo | 16:32 |

| kicklighter_ | well i installed virtualbox in ubuntu and now in windows xp machine i'mout of diskspace what to do next??? | 16:35 |
| ClientAlive | pseudonymous: we're getting warmer :) Now, the cursor hangs waiting for input still. I happen to know what to enter to nav through a trial, so I make those inputs. After entering the imput to exit the program, then the output is printed to the terminal. What I need is for the output to continually be printed to the terminal as I go becuase I need to see the program's requests for input (instructions) AND the results (same as if I was | 16:35 |
| ClientAlive | running it without logging anything). But then to have a log file to go to where the output is stored permanently. I considered modifying the person's program to do this but I thought there is an easier way via some bash command. | 16:35 |

| stickDeath | l057c0d3r: ok thanks | 16:39 |
| l057c0d3r | stickdeath if updated versions dont install or dont work right remove them and go with just fglrx and amdccc | 16:40 |
| l057c0d3r | updates dont work for everyone | 16:40 |
| stickDeath | l057c0d3r: ok and do you mean sudo apt-get fglrx-update amdccc-updates or sudo apt-get install fglrx-update amdccc-updates | 16:41 |
| llutz | ClientAlive: "script log.dat" then "<run your command>" then "ctrl-d" then "less log.dat" | 16:41 |
| pseudonymous | ClientAlive: hmm, ok - I'd be lying(spell?) if I claimed I'd know what to do, THEN. Maybe you just don't flush output enough in that program you're running. tee *should* be getting the output as it's generated - and which should both write to the file AND output it to the console | 16:41 |
| l057c0d3r | bah yeah sudo apt-get install fglrx-updates amdccc-updates | 16:42 |

| l057c0d3r | sudo apt-get install fglrx-updates fglrx-amdcccle-updates | 16:44 |
| pseudonymous | ClientAlive: 2>&1 means "take stderr(2) and send that to stdout(1)", in other words, swapping the two means you're writing everything to stderr which 'tee' isn't reading from, so at that point you may as well not have the "| tee filename" part as tee will receive no data :) | 16:44 |
| ClientAlive | pseudonymous: thx man. Hey, what does the number in "1>&2" mean? Do they indiacte the order to process the commands or do they modify the command somehow? | 16:44 |
| l057c0d3r | then sudo amdconfig --initial for amd or sudo aticonfig --initial for ati | 16:44 |

| l057c0d3r | not exactly sure.. just some cards say ati radeon others say amd bla bla go with what your card said | 16:47 |
| stickDeath | l057c0d3r: i think mine is ati, so i do: fglrx-updates fglrx-amdcccle-updates or fglrx-updates fglrx-aticccle-updates | 16:48 |
| stickDeath | or its the same | 16:48 |

| stickDeath | l057c0d3r: another thing, i think the last on :D i don't get audio from hdmi, do i need to install any package ?' | 17:02 |
| SonikkuAmerica | mdgeorge: Once you tether it to one monitor, you should be able to with multiple monitors | 17:03 |
| l057c0d3r | click on speaker in taskbar | 17:03 |
| SonikkuAmerica | !python | 17:03 |

| st0b | SonikkuAmerica, I know what python is, I just need help with Ubuntu's API. Documentation seems quite lacking | 17:04 |
| mdgeorge | I always have to log out and back in | 17:04 |
| stickDeath | l057c0d3r: i only have Speakers, built-in audio | 17:04 |

| stickDeath | l057c0d3r: Oki thanks dude | 17:06 |
| mdgeorge | I suspect that what's happening is since I'm powering up the monitors at the same time, it's triggering some kind of race condition in whatever software is reconfiguring the display | 17:06 |
| SonikkuAmerica | st0b: Did you see this? http://developer.ubuntu.com/resources/platform/api/ | 17:06 |
| stevo | mdgeorge, when you turn off one of the monitors, does it reconfigure the desktop for only a single monitor, or does the configuration stay as dual monitors? | 17:07 |
| st0b | SonikkuAmerica, yes, which lead me to http://developer.ubuntu.com/resources/technologies/application-indicators/ Still searching for a way to display text instead of an icon | 17:08 |
| mdgeorge | stevo: I don't know. I have both monitors and a bunch of other peripherals plugged into a power strip...I just hit the button when I leave at the end of the day | 17:09 |
| SonikkuAmerica | st0b: Maybe you need to write the app indicator class as what you want displayed. | 17:09 |
| mdgeorge | stevo: so I suspect the best solution is just "don't do that" | 17:09 |
| stevo | mdgeorge, I have a similar config and I'm actually trying it out :) | 17:11 |
| mdgeorge | so I just did an experiment, and unplugging one of the monitors and plugging it in again didn't cause any trouble | 17:12 |
| mdgeorge | stevo: and ditto for number 2 | 17:12 |
| stevo | mdgeorge, have you taken a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo ? | 17:12 |
| mdgeorge | stevo: no...looking now | 17:13 |

| Dan_S | so i assume that there must be a different way of giving a partition a name | 18:57 |
| seanw95_ | I heart you for trying! | 18:57 |
| seanw95_ | I'll try again in an hour or so | 18:57 |
| seanw95_ | cya | 18:57 |
| syntroPi | jammie_, i installed it like this: open terminal and type "sudo su" then enter password then "dpkg --add-architecture i386" and "apt-get update" as well as "apt-get -y -f install" then you should be able to install skype | 18:58 |
| fas | Dan_S: sounds like there must be another way. | 18:58 |
| syntroPi | seanw95, is there also a realtek ethernet device shown in your lspci? | 18:59 |
| Petrov | i have installed win8 and free space (second partition) for linux. But when i'll install linux, he see only the hdd not the partition. What do i wrong? | 18:59 |

| tomreyn | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10-foot_user_interface | 20:20 |
| Stephini | no 10 foot refers to 10 foot UI... a ui meant to be used on yoru tv while sitting on your couch (in theory a 10 foot distance) | 20:21 |
| tomreyn | i needed to look this up, too | 20:21 |
| _methods | nice learn something new everyday | 20:21 |
| aeon-ltd | Stephini: the origins of that are weird, supposedly with a 40" screen the ideal viewing distance is 5-6 feet to experience 1080p at optimum, must be a big screen to reccommend 10feet | 20:22 |

| ikonia | FUzzles: I'm not really aware of what ati's / driver versions are needed to be honest | 20:24 |
| FUzzles | ikonia, is there a command i can do to test if its working? | 20:25 |
| aeon-ltd | Stephini: it's origin is probably right, as people don't place their tvs at the distance for best viewing but for where it's convenient in a room | 20:25 |

Any help would be appreciated. | 20:38 |
| aeon-ltd | Basil1x: try reinstalling and using a new profile first | 20:40 |
| tomreyn | Stephini: i guess you'd need to have custom variants of firefox and the other applications yo want to use there to make this possible. normally the hardware developer would organise this for you. | 20:40 |

| SolarisBoy | if the password "test" is also logged when the crypt is created the user can received the proper string though - i would assume he is doing it with some script so it should be a breeze then to do a for loop of password and within the loop send the string and write the file | 20:59 |

| gueriLLaPunK | I have the option for nfs/cifs in my server control panel | 21:05 |
| gueriLLaPunK | or i can choose either or | 21:05 |
| SolarisBoy | that is most likely sharing the same data via two protocols which is fine also | 21:05 |
| clement | jrib: I figured out it's related to the session insteat of gnome terminal because when I plug a ethernet wire, I've got "unmanage" from network-manager | 21:05 |

| syntroPi | keith__, there is also secam std | 21:06 |
| gueriLLaPunK | so im safe to go with the 3rd option? even if i choose not to stay with windows | 21:06 |
| syntroPi | keith__, in what country you live? | 21:06 |

| SolarisBoy | yeps | 21:06 |
| SolarisBoy | np | 21:06 |
| gueriLLaPunK | so with the dual protocol, i can choose to mount it as NFS in *nix and when i boot into windows, i can use CIFS? sorry, never done this before | 21:07 |
| SolarisBoy | gueriLLaPunK: thats correct - more so you can do it at the same time it's basically providing the native file sharing protocol for windows/linux at the same time | 21:07 |

If I type "speaker-test" I get: Playback open error: -16,Device or resource busy. If I reboot things work. Sometimes when I start JACK for Ardour, afterwards, I get no sound from any of my devices.

| yourimym1 | does anyone know about nvidia driver , expert help needed | 22:16 |
| syntroPi | Tylopilus, of course you can browse the http servers if you find out which version you really want (OS/driver) like this http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/restricted/n/nvidia-graphics-drivers/ | 22:16 |
| jose106 | kostkon, I'll completely remove it and reinstall it again | 22:16 |

| aeon-ltd | Stephini: compromise on size | 22:19 |
| aeon-ltd | Stephini: though have you seen the fan that relies on a diapraghm instead of the standard motor? it looks promising | 22:19 |

| aeon-ltd | Stephini: but i've been wrong before, hardware guys will probably know | 22:22 |
| MonkeyDust | onto maybe ubuntu-studio is what you want | 22:22 |

| reindeer | syntroPi, ok, so theres no program for ubuntu/linux that knows what is the current connection speed of mobile broadband modem? Im getting bored looking at the different lights on the dongle itself.. :-/ | 22:24 |
| syntroPi | reindeer, idk maybe there is, was just my first idea | 22:25 |
| reindeer | syntroPi, ok, well what would you suggest as a command? :) | 22:25 |
| yourimym1 | any one knows about installing vga driver ! | 22:26 |
| MonkeyDust | onto i guess it's easier and more efficient than installing and struggling with configurations etc, ubuntu-studio has many media programs preinstalled and they have their own dedicated support channel, #ubuntustudio | 22:26 |

| yourimym1 | anyone know how to use  synaptic to run ,deb driver ? | 22:27 |
| tomreyn | rykuu: so hi + welcome, and i bet you can get an answer, so shoot :) | 22:28 |
| syntroPi | !gdebi | 22:28 |
| ubottu | deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click (in Ubuntu) or click (in Kubuntu) on them to start the GDebi utility. | 22:28 |
| yourimym1 | thx ubottu | 22:28 |
| rykuu | I am trying to forward port 25565 to my server but when I use canyouseeme.org to see if it is open it says it ain't. I turned off the firewall and that still doesn't help | 22:28 |
| tomreyn | yourimym1: are you asking how to install a .deb (a debian package), which provides a hardware driver, using synaptic? | 22:29 |
| yourimym1 | use | 22:29 |
| yourimym1 | yes tomreyn | 22:29 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: could be your router | 22:29 |
| tomreyn | yourimym1: i guess you got your answer already then (from ubottu and syntroPi ) ;-) | 22:29 |
| === Rallias is now known as Guest50717 | ||
| tomreyn | yourimym1: it's not neccessarily a good idea to install some deb files, though, if you don't know for sure it will fit your system | 22:30 |
| rykuu | what could be wrong with it? its brand new and all | 22:30 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: do you have your router set to forward the port? | 22:30 |
| rykuu | yup, for both TCP and the other thing | 22:31 |
| bekks | rykuu: Is your server behind the same router as you are? | 22:31 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: Sometimes port forwarding doesn't work for some reason, You could just set the computer with the open port as a DMZ | 22:31 |
| yourimym1 | tomreyn i've already messed with my system , trying to survive to get my vga working barley | 22:31 |
| rykuu | ya, 2 computers connected to the same router. And i made sure its being forwarded to the right one | 22:32 |
| bekks | rykuu: Then most likely (I'd even bet on it) your router does not allow loopback connection from inside via the outside address. | 22:32 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, is the deamon/program on your server port 25565 running when you scaned it? maybe you also can scan it locally with nmap | 22:32 |
| yourimym1 | can i reinstall QQ from terminal ? | 22:33 |
| rykuu | sorry, I am new to alot of this stuff, so DMZ/nmap and other things like that make no since to me | 22:33 |
| syntroPi | bekks, isnt canyouseeme.org from outside? | 22:33 |
| bekks | syntroPi: Yes. And he is trying to access it from inside. | 22:33 |
| _helios_ | ok rykuu DMZ is a setting on your router that allows connections to a certain local IP connected to that router usualy looks like 192.168.1.2 etc... | 22:34 |
| rykuu | ok | 22:34 |
| rykuu | I am in my router right now on the server computer. so I can do what you tell me | 22:35 |
| _helios_ | So for the computer that is the server set it's ip as the DMZ on your router. | 22:35 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, you want to make your servers port 25565 available through your NAT??? router to the outside internet right? | 22:35 |
| === dirtypillows is now known as ShameSpiral | ||
| bekks | rykuu: Basically you cant do anything, since the same as I told you above applies for both a portforwarding and a DMZ. | 22:35 |
| tomreyn | yourimym1: what is QQ? | 22:36 |
| rykuu | helios, how do I do that.... syntroPi, ya I want to set up a Minecraft server for public use | 22:36 |
| Krustyklimber | hi, I just got a new Epson printer/scanner... will it work with ubuntu 12.04? | 22:36 |
| yourimym1 | ubuntu 12.10 quantail | 22:36 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: it should be a setting in your router under Firewall possibly that says DMZ | 22:36 |
| === DarkAce-Z is now known as DarkAceZ | ||
| syntroPi | rykuu, start your server software and do from your pc a "nmap <put_your_servers_ip_here> -p 25565 and see if its open. Then check port forwarding on your router and issue the scan with canyouseeme.rog | 22:38 |
| tomreyn | yourimym1: it's possible to install it from a text-only interface / terminal. there is a mini.iso you can use for this purpose. mind you, that's an advanced installation. however, if you just want to reinstall from some other media (USB key or DVD) then you should be able to use the graphical installer, too (does it not work for you?) | 22:38 |
| itolf | hi | 22:38 |
| rykuu | I am not seeing anything on my router settings about DMZ or even the firewall (its a netgear WNDR3700v4) | 22:38 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: Try what syntroPi just said. | 22:39 |
| rykuu | ok, one sec... how do I nmap? | 22:39 |
| _helios_ | In your terminal type nmap what syntroPi said | 22:40 |
| _helios_ | You might need to install nmap which you just sudo apt-get install nmap | 22:40 |
| rykuu | does the nmap need to be done on the server computer or can it be done on this (my other) computer that is connected to the same router | 22:41 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: You do it from the client side | 22:41 |
| rykuu | so from the non-server computer? | 22:41 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: yes | 22:41 |
| rykuu | ok, is it something natrualy on a windows 7? | 22:42 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: no it's linux | 22:42 |

The man page has helped quite a bit but there are some areas I'm not 100% on yet. In particular, I want to specify which directories I want to back up... rsync just lets you do rsync one two three, which syncs one and two to three...

| Rock | bekks if i tough hard disk won't even feel if it is doing something | 22:51 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, how did you lauch it? | 22:51 |

| Rock | bekks they should improve the program at least giving current status so the users are not fooled into thinking what is happening | 22:52 |
| syntroPi | i never used it from windows but it should be able to scan port 25565. on linux it would be something similar to "nmap 192.168.0.2 -p 25565" on a terminal when your server has ip 192.168.0.2 | 22:53 |

| Ubuntu | hi | 23:10 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, which ubuntu you running on the server exactly? issue a "uname -a" and paste it here? | 23:10 |
| === Ubuntu is now known as Guest93183 | ||
| rykuu | holy shoot.... one sec, some idiot (I know who) messed with the port... gimme a sec and see if fixing it helps | 23:10 |
| syntroPi | rykuu and did you install some firewall on it or fiddle around with iptables? | 23:10 |
| R00tk3y | syntropi, iptables | 23:11 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: most likely it will | 23:11 |
| R00tk3y | I need to know about those for my vpn | 23:11 |
| Guest93183 | anyone know of a fast vpn i can use? | 23:11 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, also make sure minecraft server uses the right "eth0" or whats your interface there | 23:11 |
| bob___ | hi people. | 23:11 |
| syntroPi | R00tk3y, huh? | 23:12 |
| R00tk3y | I need to setup a vpn | 23:12 |
| R00tk3y | with multiple external ips | 23:12 |
| Guest93183 | speaking of minecraft anyone have a server that i could go on | 23:12 |
| bob___ | i'm wondering if somone can advise the ip range/s for the ubuntu update servers | 23:12 |
| syntroPi | ^^ | 23:12 |
| ikonia | errr why ? | 23:13 |
| ikonia | they are behind load balancers | 23:13 |
| rykuu | as for your other questions I am running 12.04 desktop, I have a firewall (I think it was called ugf or something) installed, and no I have not messed with the iptables. | 23:13 |
| ikonia | ufw is iptables | 23:13 |
| syntroPi | i never used that | 23:14 |
| syntroPi | but make sure it wouldnt block that port | 23:14 |
| bob___ | i've got several servers behind multiple firewalls and i need to add new ACL's to for these servers to allow upgrades, i'm not in a position to allow a 'trusted' mirror and i only have authorisation to use core ubuntu servers | 23:14 |
| bob___ | i am aware they're doing load balancing hence why i asked for ip range/s | 23:15 |
| === Guest91507 is now known as DaZ | ||
| ikonia | bob___: then you will struggle as they are load balanced | 23:15 |
| ikonia | and do change | 23:15 |
| benovic_ | running 10.04 with a backported php5.3.5, on plesk, today i got those errors: "[Tue Feb 05 23:51:11 2013] [warn] mod_fcgid: process 13892 graceful kill fail, sending SIGKILL" - could it be problems with php or is it something else? | 23:15 |
| bob___ | i was wondering if anyone knew before i went and did a bgp lookup of the ubuntu BGP AS routes | 23:15 |
| R00tk3y | Anyone can help with VPN server setup? | 23:15 |
| ikonia | benovic_: fast cgi module failing | 23:16 |
| ikonia | you need to look at why | 23:16 |
| rykuu | ok, I did the command again, and it says it is open | 23:16 |
| benovic_ | ikonia, that's my problem - the apache log is not very helpful | 23:16 |
| ikonia | benovic_: apache won't log php failures | 23:17 |
| ikonia | only the fact that the module is dead | 23:17 |
| roasted | Any back in time users? I'm unable to figure out if back in time supports SSH or not. It's not letting me type the path in the snapshots dir like I had expected. | 23:18 |
| bob___ | ikokia: AS4123191.189.88.0/21 <-- for your future reference ;) | 23:18 |
| ikonia | bob___: it's load balanced and changes..... | 23:18 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, if its ufw you can check it with "sudo ufw status" disable it with "sudo ufw disable" and enable it again "sudo ufw enable" to check if its doing the blocking | 23:19 |
| bob___ | but only lb's within their ip range | 23:19 |
| bob___ | ? | 23:19 |
| R00tk3y | Yo u guys are talking bout ip tables | 23:19 |
| R00tk3y | and shiiiiitt | 23:19 |
| R00tk3y | and my vpn needs iptables | 23:19 |
| ikonia | R00tk3y: hi, drop the lanuage please | 23:19 |
| ikonia | R00tk3y: if you want to use this channel, that language is unacceptable | 23:19 |
| ikonia | bob___: don't know if the whole range changes, I don't monitor it | 23:20 |
| R00tk3y | Ikonia sorry bro | 23:20 |
| rykuu | I disabled it and it still is not seeing me | 23:21 |
| bob___ | ok, back in december, security.ubuntu.com resolved to 91.189.92.184 & 91.189.92.190 -- today it resolves to 91.189.91.13 & 91.189.92.200 | 23:21 |
| bob___ | so i guess that matches the CIDR range i listed above | 23:21 |
| bob___ | was wondering if anyone here could confirm that's all | 23:21 |
| bob___ | saves me going on a break/fix mission in 12 months | 23:21 |
| ikonia | bob___: mailing canonical would probably be the best bet | 23:21 |
| bob___ | cool, thanks :) | 23:22 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, did you check the log files of your minecraft server software? does it use the right interface (that it connected to your lan)? does it open the correct port? is it really using tcp proto? | 23:22 |
| bob___ | couldn't find any info on their website doing a quick search | 23:22 |
| ikonia | bob___: I don't imagine it's top secret knowledge... | 23:22 |
| ikonia | so they will probably share willingly | 23:22 |
| rykuu | ummm one second | 23:22 |
| rykuu | half a gig of ram is not good for fast computer usage.... gimme a moment to get to the server settings | 23:23 |
| yourimym1 | hello is there anyone can help me to install correct vga driver | 23:23 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, you also can use "netstat -npl" on the server to see open listening (service) ports | 23:24 |
| rykuu | i did the netstat -npl, and I do not see 25565 there | 23:25 |
| datsmoida | how do i run multiple instances of a program that runs as a service | 23:25 |
| ikonia | datsmoida: such as ? | 23:25 |
| R00tk3y | Can anyone please help me setup VPN Server with iptables for multiple external ips??? | 23:26 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, try "sudo netstat -tulpen | grep 25565" when running your minecraft program | 23:26 |
| yourimym1 | is there another support room ? | 23:26 |
| syntroPi | should be tcp listen | 23:26 |
| Ben64 | yourimym1: there are many support rooms, depending on what support is needed | 23:27 |
| yourimym1 | vga drivers | 23:27 |
| R00tk3y | Listen up bros | 23:28 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, try running "sudo netstat -tulpen | grep 25565" on your server while running your minecraft program | 23:28 |
| R00tk3y | I need to install vpn | 23:28 |
| ikonia | yourimym1: for what card ? | 23:28 |
| yourimym1 | nvidia | 23:28 |
| ikonia | !nvidia | yourimym1 | 23:28 |
| ubottu | yourimym1: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 23:28 |
| yourimym1 | cant do this ubottu | 23:29 |
| ikonia | yourimym1: why ? | 23:29 |
| oscarvarto | Hello! I want to run a bash script at login. The instruction I want to run is: $source /opt/intel/composer_xe_2013.1.119/bin/compilervars.sh intel64. I tried to add that to /etc/rc.local, I used the same instruction at Startup Applications in dash. | 23:29 |
| yourimym1 | need expert guide | 23:29 |
| syntroPi | R00tk3y, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VPN | 23:29 |
| oscarvarto | It doesn't work. Any suggestions? | 23:29 |
| ikonia | yourimym1: what is not clear to you | 23:29 |
| rykuu | ok, I typed the cmd and it says: tcp6 0 0 192.168.1.5:25565 :::* LISTEN | 23:29 |
| yourimym1 | ikonia ; installing it manually and find right driver | 23:30 |
| rykuu | 1000 25226 7567/java | 23:30 |
| ikonia | yourimym1: what part is not clear from the guide I've just given you | 23:30 |
| yourimym1 | how to nvidia | 23:31 |
| yourimym1 | this part | 23:32 |
| Ben64 | !nvidia | yourimym1 | 23:32 |
| ubottu | yourimym1: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 23:32 |
| yourimym1 | ben nvidia yes | 23:33 |
| yugnip | yourimym1, is there something you need to configure manually? otherwise it's easiest to let Additional Drivers do it for you? | 23:33 |
| yourimym1 | additnal driver all not working exept nouvia and it runs sys here in slowmotion | 23:34 |
| Ben64 | !details | yourimym1 | 23:34 |
| ubottu | yourimym1: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 23:34 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, ok then let it running and do the nmap from your w7 box again | 23:34 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, hmm tcp6 means ipv6 ? | 23:35 |
| theuser | hi | 23:35 |
| rykuu | same results in the nmap with the port saying open...... dunno, I have no clue what tcp6 is | 23:35 |
| yourimym1 | ben ; i've tried all driver listed , only one worked , the first one , but runs system very slowly so i want to download driver manually and install | 23:36 |
| theuser | For the latest Ubuntu what is the best route for multiseat | 23:36 |
| syntroPi | rykuu port open? nice... then do canyouseeme.org | 23:36 |
| ikonia | multiseat ? | 23:36 |
| syntroPi | rykuu canyouseeme.org on your EXTERNAL internet ip of course | 23:36 |
| theuser | ikonia, one box... many users with their own screen and keyboard? | 23:36 |
| rykuu | no dice | 23:36 |
| ikonia | theuser: you'd need special hardware for that | 23:37 |
| ikonia | theuser: or something like ltsp | 23:37 |
| theuser | ikonia, nope | 23:37 |
| theuser | just a multihead gfx card or several cards | 23:38 |
| syntroPi | rykuu the nmap showed that your servers port seems to be open in lan, now you have to config your router to forward it correctly from your external ip address | 23:38 |
| ikonia | how are you going to connect multiple users to one system with multiple monitors when video cards come with 2 output | 23:38 |
| ikonia | theuser: right, so thats special hardware | 23:38 |
| ikonia | theuser: running an xserver on each head is not a problem | 23:38 |
| rykuu | ok, back to the router now. | 23:38 |
| rykuu | it would be the prot forwarding right? | 23:38 |
| syntroPi | rykuu http://screenshots.portforward.com/routers/Netgear/WNDR3700/Port_Forwarding_Port_Triggering.htm id try add custom service | 23:38 |
| theuser | ikonia, a graphics card is "exotic" hardware now ? | 23:39 |
| ikonia | theuser: it is if you want multiple users as you do | 23:39 |
| yugnip | yourimym1, this is a pretty thorough guide, makes it easy. read it all. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual | 23:39 |
| ikonia | theuser: more so depending on the xorg driver and it's capabilities to run an xserver per output | 23:39 |
| rykuu | I did the add coustom service to get it there in the first place | 23:39 |
| syntroPi | rykuu port 25565 both times and your 192.168.1.5 | 23:39 |
| theuser | ikonia, from my exp. any "normal" graphics card would do | 23:40 |
| syntroPi | rykuu hmm is it set to tcp or tcp6? | 23:40 |
| theuser | however Every howto i find seem to be 2-3years old so i'm just curious if there are any "new" "right" ways of doing things | 23:40 |
| theuser | or are we stuck to the hackedup ways we've done it for ages now | 23:40 |
| ikonia | the process is the same, as long as your hardware will actually support it | 23:40 |
| rykuu | there is only TCP and UDP options when portforwarding | 23:40 |
| syntroPi | rykuu i never used netgear routers before | 23:40 |
| syntroPi | tcp then | 23:40 |
| syntroPi | guys what would mean tcp6 in netstat? is that ipv6??? | 23:41 |
| dforthman | I just tried to install the ATI 12.3 drivers and got the following error message: [Error] Kernel Module : Failed to build fglrx-8.951 with DKMS. Will this keep me from having a stable system? Or should I try to fix this before rebooting? | 23:41 |
| R00tk3y | How long does vmware take to install on ubuntu | 23:42 |
| syntroPi | their servers dl speed isnt that fast | 23:42 |
| crazybrain2 | hi | 23:42 |
| crazybrain2 | i am having issues with my ubuntu | 23:42 |
| crazybrain2 | its running extremely slow | 23:42 |
| syntroPi | ooh i meant virtualbox | 23:43 |
| crazybrain2 | and showing Send Error report message | 23:43 |
| crazybrain2 | minute after minute | 23:43 |
| rykuu | ok, i edited it to be just TCP rather than both TCP and UDP. | 23:43 |
| theuser | is i still have to run Xephyr on single GPU setups... i will get more cards instead | 23:43 |
| crazybrain2 | anyone hear me? | 23:44 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, im not sure what that tcp6 in your netstat meant. i have nginx http server here on ipv4 and it just said "tcp" | 23:44 |
| ikonia | crazybrain2: yes | 23:44 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, tcp and udp would include tcp so it should have worked?... hmm | 23:44 |
| aeon-ltd | crazybrain2: a screenshot might help the volunteers here | 23:45 |
| rykuu | hmm... who knows..... and canyouseeme still wont work | 23:45 |
| Ben64 | tcp6 is ipv6 | 23:45 |
| crazybrain2 | aeon-ltd: it showing report a problem | 23:45 |
| crazybrain2 | again and again | 23:45 |
| crazybrain2 | and is running very slow | 23:45 |
| Ben64 | crazybrain2: shut down, start up with live cd | 23:45 |
| aeon-ltd | crazybrain2: well what's the problem[report] | 23:46 |
| Ben64 | crazybrain2: check ram using memtest | 23:46 |
| crazybrain2 | Ben64: my ram is 2gb | 23:46 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, i think there should be just "tcp" and not "tcp6" since you are using ipv4 192.168.1.5. but since nmap showed that port is open i think it should be forwardable | 23:46 |
| crazybrain2 | and i am using laptop | 23:46 |
| Ben64 | crazybrain2: ok? doesn't mean your ram is good | 23:46 |
| aeon-ltd | crazybrain2: what does the report say? | 23:47 |
| crazybrain2 | Ben64: its working damn well in windows though | 23:47 |
| crazybrain2 | the report problem window is not opening properly | 23:48 |
| rykuu | then what is the problem? | 23:48 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, are you using ssh on your server? maybe try forwarding port 22 and see if canyouseeme.org would show that. then remove it again if you dont want to be ssh-able from internet | 23:48 |
| syntroPi | i think your router config is | 23:48 |
| rykuu | ok, I will try that | 23:48 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, try the ssh thing to rule that out | 23:48 |
| aeon-ltd | crazybrain2: can you just take a screenshot please? | 23:49 |
| crazybrain2 | i think i should uninstall graphical features | 23:49 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, are you using ssh on your server? | 23:49 |
| rykuu | ya | 23:49 |
| syntroPi | k | 23:49 |
| dforthman | I just tried to install the ATI 12.3 drivers and got the following error message: [Error] Kernel Module : Failed to build fglrx-8.951 with DKMS. Will this keep me from having a stable system? Or should I try to fix this before rebooting? | 23:50 |
| rykuu | did not work | 23:50 |
| syntroPi | rykuu then its your router | 23:50 |
| syntroPi | at least you know now | 23:50 |
| genii-around | dforthman: You probably want to install dkms then reinstall the ATI drivers | 23:51 |
| crazybrain2 | aeon-ltd: http://tinypic.com/r/2utmaew/6 | 23:51 |
| rykuu | so I need to goto netgear support then | 23:51 |
| syntroPi | rykuu maybe you need to do it different? apply somewhere? disable some extra security? | 23:51 |
| dforthman | genii-around, says "dkms is already the latest version" | 23:52 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, shouldnt be too difficult to figure that one out... | 23:52 |
| genii-around | dforthman: Do you have build-essential and kernel headers installed? | 23:52 |
| syntroPi | which model is it exactly? | 23:52 |
| rykuu | I have no clue what security is installed on the server. when I started up on the first run after installing Ubuntu Desktop, I installed all the security that is showed was recomended | 23:53 |
| dforthman | genii-around, yes. both are the latest version | 23:53 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, i mean on your router | 23:53 |
| rykuu | oh.... whatever came factory default | 23:54 |
| yourimym1 | s there any channel for nvidia support here or vga issues | 23:54 |
| genii-around | dforthman: It might be useful to see the whole output then from trying to install the ATI drivers. Can you pastebin it? | 23:54 |
| ikonia | yourimym1: I'm still waiting to hear your issue | 23:54 |
| dforthman | sure can, one minute | 23:54 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, service type "port forwarding", add custom service, ip 192.168.1.5, port 25565 (external and internal), upd and tcp, apply and then it _should_ work at least i think so | 23:55 |
| syntroPi | anyone familiar with port forwarding on netgear routers here?# | 23:55 |
| dforthman | genii-around, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1614552/ | 23:56 |
| aeon-ltd | crazybrain2: what did you do before this happened? | 23:56 |
| DaemonicApathy | syntroPi: Which model? | 23:56 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, which is your exact netgear model ? | 23:57 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, is it WNDR3700? or other? | 23:57 |
| rykuu | that did not work... it is WNDR3700v4 | 23:58 |
| syntroPi | DaemonicApathy, how would be forward port tcp 25565 to 192.168.1.5 on WNDR3700v4 ? | 23:59 |
| DaemonicApathy | I have that model. Port forwarding is usually as easy as going to 10.0.0.1 (for me) and using the Port Forwarding menu option. | 23:59 |
