| third | hello anyone have any ideas on no audio with ubuntu 12.04.1 on a gateway 3522gz | 00:02 |
| R00tk3y | Okay I installed vmware | 00:02 |
| DaemonicApathy | I'm assuming it's a Minecraft server, from the port. Forwarding for that should be as simple as adding a custom service, selecting the port to forward (25565 for both Start and End), and selecting the device that this applies to. | 00:03 |

| rykuu | and I did all that Daemonic, but there is still no sign of it working | 00:04 |
| DaemonicApathy | rykuu: Have you considered that something other than the router may be misconfigured? | 00:05 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, DaemonicApathy im quite out of ideas, "sudo netstat -tulpen | grep 25565" on server shows its tcp6 open "nmap 192.168.1.5 -p 25565" on other lan pc shows its open, you did forward port 25565 to 192.168.1.5 on your WNDR3700v4 and canyouseeme.org to your external ip shows that port tcp 25565 is closed | 00:05 |

| DaemonicApathy | Is this router piggybacked or anything? | 00:06 |
| syntroPi | ikonia, not me rykuu is trying to set it up, i havent asked before, here port forwarding works flawlessly | 00:06 |
| ikonia | syntroPi: sorry, someone else asked about this to connect to his local machine and then forward to a remote machine so no-one knew his remote machine address | 00:07 |
| ikonia | syntroPi: we had a hard time explaining why this was a terrible idea, I wasn' sure if you where the same guy | 00:07 |
| datsmoida | ikonia - such as TOR | 00:08 |
| datsmoida | how do i run multiple instances of a program that runs as a service (TOR) | 00:08 |
| syntroPi | ikonia, sorry never had any routing problems ;-) | 00:08 |
| DaemonicApathy | Sounds to me like the Netgear is a secondary router, with the primary not set up to forward to it. | 00:08 |
| syntroPi | that could be it | 00:08 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, how it your netgear connected to the internet? | 00:09 |
| rykuu | netgear is hooked up to my modem a Windstream modem | 00:10 |
| DaemonicApathy | rykuu: Which model? | 00:11 |
| syntroPi | DaemonicApathy, rykuu well a modem should work on lower protocol level so the netgear does the nat routing here i guess??? isp blocking that ports? possibly? hmmm | 00:11 |
| rykuu | one sec | 00:11 |
| rykuu | speedstream 4300 | 00:12 |
| DaemonicApathy | syntroPi, some of the Windstreams support forwarding. | 00:12 |
| C_Clear | Howdy | 00:12 |
| DaemonicApathy | rykuu: Assuming a standard setup, go to 192.168.254.254 and forward port 25565 to your Netgear. | 00:13 |
| syntroPi | http://screenshots.portforward.com/Siemens/SpeedStream_4300/ | 00:13 |
| C_Clear | upgrad ? | 00:13 |
| syntroPi | DaemonicApathy, this is a double NAT then? | 00:14 |
| C_Clear | was wondering if I could ask a question pretaining to a 12.04 upgrade? | 00:14 |
| rykuu | it says webpage it not avaliable | 00:14 |
| aeon-ltd | C_Clear: ask, don't ask to ask | 00:14 |
| syntroPi | http://screenshots.portforward.com/Siemens/SpeedStream_4300/Port_Forwarding_Configuration.htm | 00:14 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, can you see in your netgear which ip that modem uses? | 00:15 |
| syntroPi | internal ip | 00:15 |
| syntroPi | oh my | 00:15 |
| DaemonicApathy | syntroPi: To answer your question, it does seem to be. That's what it sounded like from the start. | 00:16 |
| C_Clear | No Prob Aeon-ltd just trying to be Polite. Well long story short after upgrading to 12.04 my video driver plays then goes blank after a while. wanted to see if I could reload the video drivers as a solution but kind of a noob and not sure what the proper "dpkg" command is to do it | 00:16 |
| rykuu | lemme check, gimme a sec | 00:16 |
| rykuu | where would I see that? | 00:16 |
| syntroPi | DaemonicApathy, well port was not open in lan before | 00:17 |

| syntroPi | rykuu try here maybe http://screenshots.portforward.com/Siemens/SpeedStream_4300/Port_Forwarding_Configuration.htm | 00:22 |
| rykuu | ok, I am in the modem port forwarding, I assume I need to forward 25565, but to where | 00:23 |
| syntroPi | there you should enter ip of your netgear | 00:23 |
| chaospsychex | is there a 'repair permissions utility' available ? I have done something terrible and I am scared to re-boot | 00:23 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, but the ip the netgear uses for connecting to the modem | 00:24 |
| rykuu | whats my netgear IP? would that be the external or the 192.168.1.5 or what? | 00:25 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: that would be the 192.168.1.5 | 00:25 |
| syntroPi | _helios_, thats the servers ip behind the netgear | 00:25 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, i think its something different | 00:26 |
| rykuu | it said invalid IP | 00:26 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, your netgear router has an ip on the lan port it connects to the modem. that should be the correct one i guess | 00:26 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, whats the modem ip you are on right now? | 00:27 |
| syntroPi | 192.168.1.254 maybe? | 00:28 |
| rykuu | one second | 00:28 |
| rykuu | modem IP is http://192.168.254.254/ | 00:28 |
| syntroPi | hmm well then it _could_ be 192.168.254.1 maybe... | 00:29 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: Are you running the server on Ubuntu? | 00:29 |
| rykuu | ya | 00:29 |
| syntroPi | or 2 | 00:29 |
| === william is now known as Guest51141 | ||
| syntroPi | just a guess | 00:29 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: Goto the server and open a terminal and type ifconfig | 00:29 |
| puff | IdleOne: Well, when I plugged in the USb cable, it said "Missing printer driver No printer driver for HP Photosmart 6520 series" | 00:30 |
| rykuu | ok, I typed that | 00:30 |
| _helios_ | What IP does it give you? | 00:30 |
| syntroPi | _helios_, the server has 192.168.1.5 behind the netgear nat and thats behind the modem nat | 00:30 |
| rykuu | which IP am I looking for? | 00:31 |
| _helios_ | inet addr: | 00:31 |
| syntroPi | the netgear ip connected to your modem. that might be different from that you can reach it in lan | 00:31 |
| rykuu | in eth0 or lo | 00:31 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: eth0 | 00:31 |
| rykuu | 192.168.1.5 | 00:31 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: ok So in your router you need to forward your port to that IP | 00:32 |
| rykuu | that is done already | 00:32 |
| syntroPi | _helios_, in netgear router, but that behind the modems nat | 00:32 |
| rykuu | ya, so what address do I use to forward the modem to the router? | 00:33 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: that will most likely be a mac address or HWaddr | 00:33 |
| rykuu | so I need to type the mac address in the IP address? | 00:34 |
| kfizz | For some reason, I can't get an external HD to mount at /Apollo/ and be owned by me -- only root. The directory is owned by me until I mount it, and then root owns it. I have a secondary internal HDD that gets mounted at /MyMedia/ and I am the owner. Fstab and ls -al / here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1614608/ | 00:34 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: no, are you in the modem config? | 00:34 |
| syntroPi | nope thats one proto layer below | 00:34 |
| rykuu | theres another option I just noticed for the forwarding location, Redirect selected protocol/service to this router.......... ya I am in the modem config | 00:35 |
| dr_willis | kfizz: what filesystem is on the disk | 00:35 |
| kfizz | NTFS | 00:35 |
| kfizz | dr_willis, ^ | 00:36 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: There should be somewhere where you can add the MAC address of the hardware connecting if it says IP it will be 192.168.1.255 | 00:36 |
| dr_willis | kfizz: yu need to use tge rght options to get it owned by tge user. uid= most likely | 00:36 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, i think "this router" would mean the modem itself | 00:36 |
| brightknight | whats that decepticon language looking in my locales? | 00:37 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, id try 192.168.254.1 or 192.168.254.2 and shoot that canyouseeme.org again | 00:37 |
| rykuu | sorry, had to save my dinneer from burning | 00:37 |
| brightknight | whhy did they give me nanobots and plug it into ubuntu. | 00:37 |
| dr_willis | kfizz: the ntfs-3g hmpage has examples | 00:37 |
| kfizz | dr_willis, thanks. I didn't even think about the filesystem being an issue. I'll check that out. | 00:38 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, i just guess 192.168.254.1 because your modem has 192.168.254.254 and if its using 255.255.255.0 netmask that would be first ip in that range | 00:39 |
| syntroPi | but maybe it starts at higher number .2 or even more | 00:39 |
| rykuu | I tried that, it seems to still not work | 00:40 |
| _helios_ | rykuu: if that don't work try 192.168.1.255 | 00:40 |
| rykuu | says it is invalid | 00:41 |
| brightknight | whats that decepticon language looking in my locales? | 00:42 |
| rykuu | well I gotta get going... Thanks for the help, I will give Windstream a call later on and see if they can help | 00:43 |
| syntroPi | rykuu, maybe you can read it from your netgear http://screenshots.portforward.com/routers/Netgear/WNDR3700/Basic_Settings.htm | 00:43 |
| rykuu | thanks again for your help | 00:44 |
| rykuu | wish me luck | 00:44 |

| dr_willis | what player and what do you mean by blank... | 00:47 |
| C_Clear | well it happens in both VLC and Gnome Media Player. I will play a file in a playlist and initially the video works but on the next file i n the play list the video goes away and the screen is just blank. (white screen for gnome black screen for VLC) | 00:49 |
| dr_willis | so the video continues to play? you hear souund? but no video output? | 00:50 |

| escott | Node231, if its negative toggle the high bit | 02:01 |
| === dirtypillows is now known as ShameSpiral | ||
| Node231 | thanks escott | 02:02 |
| dforthman | Relondo, there should be a "session" switcher at the login prompt. Change it to the one you want. | 02:02 |
| datsmoida | does upgrading ubuntu update a lot of software repositories automatically ? | 02:02 |
| Node231 | I'm trying to convert 0111 1101 to 2's complement | 02:02 |
| Node231 | I can't seem to figure it out | 02:02 |
| escott | Node231, so thats unchanged | 02:02 |
| Relondo | dforthman: I thought session was the DE that I logged into. I want to switch to the Ubuntu login screen | 02:02 |
| Node231 | 2s complement you only have for negatives | 02:02 |
| escott | Node231, 2s complement just means the high bit means a big negative not a positive | 02:03 |
| dforthman | Relondo, oh, i see. I read that incorrectly. | 02:03 |
| Node231 | icic thanks escott | 02:03 |
| Node231 | high bit meaning left | 02:03 |
| Node231 | ? | 02:03 |
| === xnavor__ is now known as xnavor | ||

| escott | Node231, that would depend on endianess, but in writing yes the left bit | 02:04 |

| dforthman | Relondo, http://askubuntu.com/questions/138561/reset-to-default-unity-login | 02:05 |
| escott | Node231, rtl = right to left = tfel ot thgir | 02:05 |

| Relondo | dforthman: Thanks | 02:06 |
| ikonia | danub: show me the output of uname -a | 02:06 |

| ikonia | danub: no | 02:07 |
| danub | not even with alien? | 02:08 |
| escott | Node231, well the first digit is -256. so if you need a negative you start at -256 and then add positives. for a positive you just add positives | 02:08 |
| dr_willis | danub: you wan tto risk trashing your ssystem? | 02:08 |
| ikonia | danub: not really no, as the contents are designed for a different platform | 02:08 |

| ikonia | danub: what software do you want ? | 02:08 |
| danub | java | 02:09 |
| danub | sun java | 02:09 |
| ikonia | java is available | 02:09 |
| ikonia | !java | danub | 02:09 |
| ubottu | danub: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 02:09 |
| dr_willis | wwwhy do people onlky think theres rpms for java? | 02:09 |
| escott | Node231, 1000 0010 is either an unsigned 258=256+2 or a signed -254=-256+2 | 02:09 |
| danub | dr_willis: because thats all that is listed on suns website | 02:09 |
| ikonia | danub: check that URL out | 02:09 |
| dr_willis | sun? | 02:09 |
| dr_willis | its ben oracle for some time now.... | 02:10 |
| wr | on sun's website they also offer a .tar.gz, which is actually a set of precompiled binaries and libraries | 02:10 |
| tyrog | oracle! | 02:10 |
| tyrog | are you visiting sun websites from the cache? :) | 02:10 |
| Node231 | thanks escott | 02:10 |
| wr | same difference, the word "sun" is shorter and less evil | 02:10 |
| Node231 | I wish it specified signed or unsigned | 02:10 |
| dr_willis | I just used the java from the repos. ;P | 02:11 |
| dforthman | * | 02:11 |

| IDWMaster | Lately I've been discussing Ubuntu with some of my friends at school and a number of them prefer Debian, mainly because of: a) The unity interface or b) The fact that by default, Unity sends your search data to Amazon when you are just searching for a local program. I was wondering who I would talk to to try and get these defaults changed for new Ubuntu users? | 03:28 |
| IDWMaster | Personally I like Unity but I don't think search data should be sent to Amazon by default | 03:28 |
| bazhang | !adlens | IDWMaster | 03:28 |
| ubottu | IDWMaster: If you wish not to see "More Suggestions" from places like Amazon in your Ubuntu 12.10, simply remove the package unity-lens-shopping, or adjust your Privacy settings as shown here: http://goo.gl/kFO4u . Mark Shuttleworth's blog entry on this is at http://goo.gl/uF7zZ | 03:28 |
| OerHeks | there will be more such shopping lenses in 13.04 :-D | 03:29 |
| bazhang | IDWMaster, so turn it off | 03:29 |
| IDWMaster | I know how to disable it in Privacy settings, but my opinion is that it should be disabled by default, because a number of users are complaining about it being enabled by default | 03:29 |

| godzirra | I assumed it would. I'm checking now. | 03:33 |
| justmmt | hi hi :) | 03:33 |
| Senjai | hi | 03:33 |
| Senjai | godzirra: http://guides.macrumors.com/File_systems | 03:34 |
| godzirra | Senjai: That would cause the mac bios to not recognize a flash drive at all? | 03:35 |
| godzirra | that seems odd. | 03:35 |
| dustin | (ubuntu 11.04 64 bit 16Gb ram) is it normal for the system to start using swap space when around 4 Gb of ram is in use? system is also really bogging down when it does this | 03:35 |
| dr_willis | how did you 'burn' the iso to the thumbdrive? | 03:35 |
| Senjai | godzirra: if it can't recognize the filesystem, no | 03:35 |
| Senjai | godzirra: why did you need to 'burn' an iso anyway? | 03:36 |
| Senjai | godzirra: FAT32 is a safe bet for all three OS's (in my experience) | 03:36 |
| tomreyn | dustin: it's normal for it to start using swap space, but it's not normal for it to become slow. | 03:36 |
| Senjai | dustin: What install are you using | 03:37 |
| Senjai | dustin: Wubi, or normal | 03:37 |
| dustin | never used Wubi | 03:37 |
| === william is now known as Guest20836 | ||
| dustin | but the system is far from "normal" | 03:38 |
| tomreyn | dustin: your system is also EOL | 03:38 |
| tomreyn | !eol | dustin | 03:38 |
| ubottu | dustin: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 03:38 |
| Senjai | dustin: Wubi is a type of installer. It installs without partitioning and can be slow. Anywho, No idea why its running slow. There is no catch all solution based on the info you provided us | 03:39 |
| dr_willis | !11.04 | 03:39 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) was the fourteenth release of Ubuntu. Desktop support ended on October 28, 2012. See !upgrade, !lts and !eol for more details. | 03:39 |
| godzirra | Senjai: I had a flash drive laying around and for some reason ubuntu has decided to make their iso bigger than a cd =p | 03:40 |
| dustin | k system is using 11.04 as a base with mint desktop... 5 drives custom partitioned 3 have swap space | 03:40 |
| dr_willis | its a dvd iso. now | 03:41 |
| tomreyn | !mint | dustin | 03:41 |
| ubottu | dustin: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 03:41 |
| bazhang | dustin MINT? | 03:41 |
| godzirra | dr_willis: I know. I just hit putting something that's like 30 megs too big on a dvd =p | 03:41 |
| Senjai | godzirra: this is the future, nobody uses cd roms anymore. Only dvd or hd. Follow the instructions from the ubuntu website on making a proper thumb drive in mac. | 03:41 |
| tyrog | godzirra: CD ISOs are dropped, now only DVD | 03:41 |
| Senjai | !install | godzirra | 03:42 |
| ubottu | godzirra: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

| dr_willis | godzirra: i bet it will. grow every 6 mo | 03:42 |
| godzirra | Probably. | 03:42 |
| dustin | tomreyn, so how does the mint desktop (though morphed in my install with gnome) change the back-end that manages ram usage, and thus dismiss my inquiry? | 03:43 |
| dr_willis | i vote for removeing libreiffice to save space ;-) | 03:43 |
| godzirra | Ha. | 03:43 |
| godzirra | Agreed. | 03:43 |
| tyrog | dr_willis: libreoffice is ok | 03:43 |
| Senjai | dustin:the 'back end' as you would call itis the linux kernel, it is the same thing that runs all distros. | 03:44 |
| dr_willis | remove it.. put steam on by default. ;-) | 03:44 |
| godzirra | Senjai: I'm doing it again with the universal usb installer. | 03:44 |
| Senjai | dustin: It allocates where programs ask. If a program asks for too much the kernel doesnt know the difference | 03:44 |
| tyrog | dr_willis: Oh, agreed with that | 03:44 |
| godzirra | I did it with another program before. | 03:44 |
| Senjai | dustin: Anyways, if your running a mint desktop, and that has slowed your computer, this is not the place to ask. | 03:45 |
| tomreyn | dustin: linux mint is a linu distribution, it's not just a desktop. unless you're referring to something else? the point about linux mint is that it is not ubuntu and thus this is not the place to discuss it, whether or not there are similarities. | 03:45 |
| dr_willis | plus its eol | 03:46 |
| tyrog | dustin: Mint has their own support channel. I can tell you that you can just run Xchat from your current setup and you will get there. But support is not here :) | 03:46 |
| Senjai | plus its eol | 03:46 |
| Senjai | godzirra: I dont know why you need an installer. | 03:47 |

| Senjai | godzirra: okay, then go for it :) I dont use mac (and never will) so I dont know what it reccomends for it | 03:48 |
| godzirra | You can do it via a dvd. | 03:48 |
| godzirra | I just don't have any laying around. =p | 03:48 |

| dr_willis | heh.. and put an icon for that netflix on ubuntu package on the desktop.... | 03:49 |
| tyrog | Senjai: Also you can buy a mac and not use osx, just like godzirra | 03:49 |
| Senjai | tyrog: never, I would never support apple | 03:49 |
| godzirra | I didn't buy a mac... | 03:49 |
| godzirra | I work for a company that uses macs. :) | 03:49 |
| tyrog | Senjai: me too. Especially when there are better alternatives. Oh, and cheaper | 03:50 |
| godzirra | Ha. Awesome. So I put the mac ubuntu iso on the thumbdrive as per the instructions on the ubuntu site... I stick it in the mac and get "No DEFAULT or UI configuration directive found! boot: " | 03:50 |
| Senjai | tyrog: better cheaper and more ethical | 03:50 |
| Senjai | godzirra: wait, like, when your booting? | 03:51 |
| godzirra | Senjai: Yup. | 03:51 |
| godzirra | It flashes the syslinux info | 03:51 |
| godzirra | then says Unknown keyword in configuration file: | 03:51 |
| tyrog | Senjai: W8, Stallman said Ubuntu is unethical now. Joking xD | 03:51 |
| godzirra | and some characters Ican't type because I don't recall the ascii map keys for those characters =p | 03:51 |

| godzirra | Not today it isn't. :/ | 03:52 |
| Senjai | godzirra: The point is, dont rely on a mac to do anything right | 03:52 |
| godzirra | Not helpful. =p | 03:52 |
| Senjai | godzirra: I tried | 03:52 |
| godzirra | It ran osx just fine. I'd just rather use linux. | 03:52 |

| evon | Question. I've been using Ubuntu 12.04 for a couple weeks (Couldn't get 12.10 working). I've been having various program crashes, compiz crashing, and libreoffice is completely wonky. I am wondering if it's my hardware or this version of ubuntu is just glitchy period. i have an Nvidia card and AMD CPU. has anyone had similar issues? | 03:57 |
| mugsy_ | evon: my compiz crashes all the time too | 03:58 |
| mugsy_ | plus idle cpu is about 20% for compiz | 03:58 |

| mugsy_ | evon: I don't.. I'm using i915 chipset drivers.. which is different as well | 03:58 |
| mugsy_ | and intel | 03:59 |
| mugsy_ | are you using a laptop? | 03:59 |
| evon | mugsy_ so you think 12.04 is just glitchy? | 03:59 |

| mugsy_ | evon: I couldn't say | 03:59 |
| mugsy_ | heh, so our setup is different in almost every way ;) | 03:59 |

| mugsy_ | though I do have to manually patch the i915 drivers since they have a bug with the detect external displays interrupt. | 04:03 |

| godzirra | I just redownloaded the imagine again... I get a different md5, but still not the one that matches the website. | 05:03 |
| godzirra | Are the md5sums on the site correct? | 05:03 |
| godzirra | !install | 05:04 |
| kepler | which image did you get? | 05:04 |
| dr_willis | hmm,, try a torrent? | 05:04 |
| mhaz | ok | 05:05 |
| godzirra | The amd64+mac one | 05:05 |
| kepler | 12.10 64? | 05:05 |
| godzirra | ubuntu-12.10-desktop-amd64+mac.iso | 05:06 |
| Jcopacetic | it shows this (i hope I used that pastebin right) 1 2 3 4package installation failed dpkg: error processing /home/jcopacetic/scangearmp-mp280series-1.60-1-deb/packages/scangearmp-common_1.60-1_amd64.deb (--install): scangearmp-common: 1.60-1 (Multi-Arch: no) is not co-installable with scangearmp-common:i386 1.60-1 (Multi-Arch: no) which is currently installed | 05:07 |
| mhaz | dependency error. where did you get this deb file? | 05:08 |
| Jcopacetic | here I believe http://support-in.canon-asia.com/contents/IN/EN/0100302702.html | 05:08 |
| kepler | godzirra, md5s match for me | 05:09 |
| godzirra | Well crap. | 05:09 |
| godzirra | I guess i can try downloading a third time. :/ | 05:09 |
| kepler | used this: http://releases.ubuntu.com/quantal/ubuntu-12.10-desktop-amd64+mac.iso | 05:09 |
| godzirra | At 30 minutes a try. :/ | 05:09 |
| godzirra | Yeah, that's the one I downloaded twice. | 05:09 |
| kepler | :/ mine was like 30 seconds | 05:09 |
| godzirra | for 800 megs? | 05:10 |
| godzirra | My internet has sucked lately. :/ | 05:10 |
| kepler | i am at work, so that is cheating i guess | 05:10 |
| godzirra | Eh. 9mb/s I guess isn't bad. | 05:11 |
| godzirra | Yeah, just a little. | 05:11 |
| kepler | have a couple of 10 gigs coming in, but 1 gig link on my workstation | 05:11 |
| godzirra | this one at least boots | 05:11 |
| godzirra | Maybe I spoke too soon. :/ | 05:12 |
| godzirra | It seems to be hanging at detecting the bluetooth usb host controller. | 05:12 |
| godzirra | sigh. | 05:12 |
| dr_willis | it hates you | 05:13 |
| kepler | ^ that | 05:13 |
| godzirra | Yeah, no kidding. | 05:13 |
| kepler | be more gentle with it. if the md5 isn't matching, no telling what's up with it | 05:13 |
| Ben64 | use rsync to fix it | 05:13 |
| godzirra | Ben64: I didn't know you could do that? | 05:14 |
| Ben64 | totally | 05:14 |
| dr_willis | thought that was zsync? but ive not done it in years | 05:14 |
| godzirra | Is there an rsync for windows? ;p | 05:14 |
| Ben64 | yes | 05:14 |
| Ben64 | or use torrent, that might be easier | 05:15 |
| Jcopacetic | dr_willis: does this mean it worked? sudo dpkg -i scangearmp-common_1.60-1_i386.deb [sudo] password for jcopacetic: (Reading database ... 275438 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace scangearmp-common:i386 1.60-1 (using scangearmp-common_1.60-1_i386.deb) ... Unpacking replacement scangearmp-common:i386 ... Setting up scangearmp-common:i386 (1.60-1) ... Processing triggers for libc-bin ... ldconfig deferred processing now tak | 05:15 |
| godzirra | I'm downloading the torrent, but its 37 minutes. | 05:15 |
| harovali | hi, how's a fin way of starting a daemon of mina at startup time? I use to put the command lin in a @reboot line in crontab. In old times, I used to put things in /etc/init.d and ln -s them from ../rcS.2/S40myscript , f.i.; now I'm pretty lost. Any hint welcome | 05:15 |
| godzirra | I'm looking for an rsync for windows. | 05:15 |
| Ben64 | godzirra: have the torrent use the file you already downloaded | 05:16 |
| Ben64 | then it'll just grab what is messed up | 05:16 |
| godzirra | I did. Its down to 12 minutes now. | 05:16 |
| mhaz | uninstall scangearmp-common:i386 1.60-1 | 05:16 |
| Ben64 | godzirra: well you wouldn't get any better from rsync then | 05:16 |
| godzirra | Yeah | 05:17 |
| harovali | there is that 'boot manager' for X application, but it confuses me more than it helps me make things start at startup time | 05:17 |
| kepler | 12 mins?? the original download missed like 1/3rd of it? | 05:17 |
| godzirra | Hell if I know. | 05:17 |
| godzirra | I think its still going through it. | 05:17 |
| Jcopacetic | lol I just got that package to unpack. So I remove it and then try the other one again? | 05:17 |
| harovali | I simply need to run a script, namely the one that runs iptables once for each firewall rule | 05:17 |
| godzirra | I'm down to 9 now. | 05:17 |
| godzirra | And its going down pretty quickly. | 05:18 |
| kunji | harovali: Do you need it just for one user, to start when X does? | 05:18 |
| dr_willis | harovali: once at boot? use /etc/rc.local | 05:18 |
| mhaz | don't buy canon. hp is easier | 05:18 |
| harovali | dr_willis: just as one would do with ye old /etc/init.d and /etc/rcS.2 etc ? | 05:19 |
| entreri | hey there, what is the shortcut to hide all windows (to show the desktop) ? | 05:19 |
| harovali | kunji: no, at machine boot | 05:19 |
| dr_willis | harovali: for a quick and dirty command. rc.local is easy. or make a upstart service for it.. | 05:19 |
| mhaz | looks like it replaced it. try restarting printer daemon or just logout | 05:19 |
| dr_willis | entreri: press and hold the super key to see unity shortcuts | 05:19 |
| kunji | harovali: go with dr_willis' suggestion then. | 05:19 |
| harovali | kunji: my mention to X was because there is an application for X that suposedly manages what to run at boottime | 05:19 |
| harovali | kunji: thanks | 05:20 |
| Ben64 | !who | mhaz | 05:20 |
| ubottu | mhaz: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 05:20 |
| harovali | dr_willis: just putting it there makes it plainly run ? no order or special tricks ? | 05:20 |
| mhaz | si | 05:20 |
| entreri | dr_willis: the "windows" key ? | 05:21 |
| wiggmpk | anyone else having an issue with suspend on 12.04? | 05:21 |
| dr_willis | harovali: should. | 05:21 |
| harovali | dr_willis: thanks | 05:21 |
| dr_willis | !super | 05:21 |
| dr_willis | ;) | 05:21 |
| Ben64 | wiggmpk: nope, you're the only person | 05:21 |
| mhaz | ubuntu=train wreck=out | 05:21 |
| harovali | is there a plain tutorial as to how to make a startup service with one's own scripts that you know of? | 05:21 |
| dr_willis | !upstart | harovali | 05:22 |
| ubottu | harovali: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 05:22 |
| harovali | thanks | 05:22 |
| dr_willis | the upstart 'cookbook' is the best docs | 05:22 |
| harovali | thanks x 2 | 05:22 |
| Ben64 | upstart isn't very easy to figure out though, but it should work if you read the whole manual, which is like 5200 pages | 05:22 |
| wiggmpk | Ben64 :P funny | 05:22 |
| harovali | Ben64: yes I know. I'll put the damn script in /etc/rc.local :-) | 05:23 |
| Ben64 | harovali: i was trying to figure out upstart for a while, gave up | 05:23 |
| dr_willis | hmm. found the upstart cookbook fairly c;lear | 05:24 |
| kunji | Ben64: Like the iptables man page? | 05:24 |
| harovali | Ben64: I almost went crazy reading about systemd and survived, but startup is rather wierd to me (by my prejudices 'standards') | 05:24 |
| dr_willis | systemd - is going to be so,,,,weird when it eventually gets into ubuntu' | 05:24 |
| harovali | dr_willis: I'll give the cookbook a fair try, thanks a lot | 05:24 |
| harovali | dr_willis: I'm running it in arch | 05:25 |
| aeon-ltd | harovali: kinda have to though, don't you? | 05:25 |
| harovali | aeon-ltd: I didn't get your sentence , sorry | 05:26 |
| aeon-ltd | harovali: initscripts being dropped, so you have to use systemd | 05:26 |
| godzirra | well crap. | 05:27 |
| harovali | aeon-ltd: yes, that was a very hard to swollow step in arch | 05:27 |
| godzirra | What md5sum were you guys getting? | 05:27 |
| harovali | aeon-ltd: ultimately it wasn't horrible | 05:27 |
| kepler | 7b7c56c74008da7d97bd49669c8a045d Downloads/ubuntu-12.10-desktop-amd64+mac.iso | 05:27 |
| kunji | Hmm, are there any obvious regressions that might occur going to systemd from, is it upstart in use now? | 05:27 |
| godzirra | Uh.. thats the one I got, but thats not the one in the md5sum file? | 05:27 |
| godzirra | Crap. Yes, it was. | 05:28 |
| godzirra | Nevermind. | 05:28 |
| kepler | haha | 05:28 |
| godzirra | I still had the wrong sum the first two times =p | 05:28 |
| harovali | thanks you all ! | 05:28 |
| kepler | to be honest, i looked at the first 3 and last 3, so i went back to double check | 05:28 |
| godzirra | I was looking at the server md5 last time | 05:29 |
| godzirra | Although even looking at the right one, the last time my md5sum was still off | 05:29 |
| godzirra | we'll see if booting works this time. | 05:29 |
| harovali | dr_willis: one last question, which component is responsible for running rc.local/* scripts ? | 05:29 |
| godzirra | Thanks for all your guys help | 05:29 |
| dr_willis | harovali: upstart handles them all.. it even relicagtges the sysv bits | 05:29 |
| dr_willis | replicates | 05:29 |
| puff | I'm stuck trying to get an HP photosmart 6520 printer/scanner worknig with ubuntu 12.4. | 05:29 |
| wiggmpk | Every time I attempt to suspend, my screen turns black and then jumps back to my lock screen. Looking through /var/log/pm-suspend.log I only see 2 fails with NetworkManager and wpa_supplicant. After some googling I tried a few scripts (which have worked in the past) in /etc/pm/sleep.d/ with no effect. I tried unloading my wireless driver and disabling network-manager all together prior to suspending with no effect. Any thoughts? | 05:30 |
| kunji | !details | puff | 05:31 |
| ubottu | puff: 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 ..." | 05:31 |
| === roo is now known as Guest5036 | ||

| Jcopacetic | ok so according to my terminal, when I type dpkg -r filename I need super user privileges | 05:32 |
| Ben64 | Jcopacetic: yeah, use sudo | 05:32 |
| davey486 | is there a way to get input from my controller to tell me what keys presses are being sent from it? | 05:32 |
| godzirra | Indeed you do. | 05:32 |
| swang1 | oo | 05:32 |
| dr_willis | Jcopacetic: you need sudo rights for package management yes | 05:32 |
| swang1 | irc 好了。。 | 05:32 |
| puff | kunji: When I plug it in via USB, it shows up in lsusb output and ubuntu says driver not found. Searched and found drivers for 6510. Now it shows up in printers and I can print a test page. Simple Scan doesn't see it for scanning. Also, this printer is supposed to support wireless, so I'd like to get that working. | 05:32 |
| singharkirat | hey everyone! | 05:32 |
| singharkirat | is there ubuntu available for ibm-powerpc | 05:33 |
| singharkirat | ? | 05:33 |
| singharkirat | please its urgent | 05:33 |
| godzirra | This still seems to hang right after it finds the bluetooth usb host controller | 05:33 |
| aeon-ltd | !ppc | 05:33 |
| ubottu | PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ | 05:33 |
| puff | singharkirat: Probably... what did the almighty google say? | 05:33 |
| dr_willis | pppc linux can be rather... problematic ive found | 05:33 |
| kunji | puff: I'm no expert in printers. You could check the output of scanimage -Lv though | 05:34 |
| godzirra | So whats weird is regular ubuntu (not the mac one specifically) installs and runs just fine on my macbook... | 05:34 |
| Jcopacetic | thats embarrassing, we I removed scangearmp-mp280series:i386 1.60-1. should I remove all of the .debs I've unpacked? | 05:34 |
| godzirra | Its just the boot problem I'm having. As in it doesn't boot. | 05:34 |
| Jcopacetic | related to my scanner that is... | 05:34 |
| singharkirat | puff: i am getting for apple, not ibm | 05:34 |
| aeon-ltd | godzirra: using refit? | 05:34 |
| dr_willis | Jcopacetic: unpacked? You mean Installed? | 05:34 |
| aeon-ltd | singharkirat: see the link the bot posted | 05:35 |
| puff | kunji: Cool, will try that. | 05:35 |
| dr_willis | singharkirat: whats the exact pc you have? | 05:35 |
| godzirra | aeon-ltd: I was originally using refit and it worked fine, but I blew away the mac partition which took refit with it. Now I get the "No boot device" error. | 05:35 |
| Jcopacetic | well my terminal unpacked them but sure | 05:35 |
| godzirra | aeon-ltd: I assumed installing grub would work. I was incorrect. | 05:35 |
| DSteele | hi | 05:35 |
| davey486 | dr_willis: is there something like xev that isn't part of the xserver package? | 05:36 |
| singharkirat | its ibm poerpc server | 05:36 |
| ubuntu_ | Test. Please Ignore... | 05:36 |
| singharkirat | aeon-ltd: link please.. | 05:36 |
| davey486 | I've been looknig but can't find anything | 05:36 |
| dr_willis | davey486: not that ive ever noticed | 05:36 |
| davey486 | k thanks | 05:36 |
| puff | kunji: Hm, scanimage -Lv says not found, but also suggests using sane-find-scanner, which reports seeing the scanner. So maybe not SANE-supported. | 05:37 |
| davey486 | do you know of anything like that for win xp? | 05:37 |
| aeon-ltd | !ppc | singharkirat | 05:37 |
| ubottu | singharkirat: PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ | 05:37 |
| singharkirat | ubottu: | 05:37 |
| singharkirat | ubottu: thanx.. | 05:37 |
| godzirra | aeon-ltd: Any ideas how to do this without a mac partition? | 05:38 |
| eoliva | I'm having problems with Intel Series 7/C210 chipset and my sound is not working, I tried a lot of things: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=98cdb628090699b07d5eea844b19c725668f7706 | 05:38 |
| aeon-ltd | godzirra: not a clue, unless there is some kind of refit install livecd | 05:38 |
| kunji | puff: Maybe, all I know about it is that if the scanimage command had found it, then it should be working, so we've definitely confirmed there is a problem, unfortunately I don't even have a stab at a solution. | 05:38 |
| harovali | yet another question: if I put an interface definition in /etc/network/interfaces , can I be confident that it will be processed at boot time without NetworkManager clash? | 05:40 |
| datsmoida | is there any reason to upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10 ? | 05:40 |
| dr_willis | you want the 12.10 features | 05:40 |
| godzirra | aeon-ltd: Good call. Didn't even think of that. Trying it now. | 05:40 |
| agent | Willis, I wanted to do that but, i was waiting to read more about what problems are occuring | 05:41 |
| dr_willis | you newd newer kernal.. | 05:41 |
| grahamcracker | i have 12.04 and 12.10 i dont even know the difference except 12.10 is buggier.. | 05:41 |
| datsmoida | lol gr8 | 05:41 |
| agent | I've only just corrected wireless in 12'04 on my netbook. I was waiting beofr I tried 12.10 | 05:41 |
| datsmoida | what are these features | 05:42 |
| grahamcracker | 12.10's sidebar is cooler too | 05:42 |
| dr_willis | newer kernel. newer drivers.. | 05:42 |
| datsmoida | cmon | 05:42 |
| datsmoida | it's still buggy right | 05:42 |
| datsmoida | dem bugs | 05:42 |
| dr_willis | life is buggy | 05:42 |
| datsmoida | don't need it | 05:42 |
| dr_willis | 12.04 has bugs also | 05:43 |
| datsmoida | it works fine | 05:43 |
| agent | later when I know what I'm dong more maybe. | 05:43 |
| datsmoida | y i need more | 05:43 |
| datsmoida | more bugs | 05:43 |
| dr_willis | newer kernel. newer drivers........ | 05:43 |
| kunji | grahamcracker: Personally I've experienced fewer bugs with 12.10, mainly in the case of wireless devices | 05:43 |
| datsmoida | cmon .. | 05:43 |
| dr_willis | is the main reason | 05:43 |
| godzirra | Wireless was wicked easy to setup for me on 12.10 | 05:43 |
| godzirra | I've not tried 12.04 though. | 05:43 |
| dr_willis | i got wireless thats fully linus supported. no hassles | 05:44 |
| grahamcracker | kunji yeah i tried 12.04 and 12.10 on my desktop and 12.10 actually used my usb wireless receiver | 05:44 |
| datsmoida | well now it's illegal to crack a phone, so | 05:44 |
| agent | for wireless i did an upgrade and played with bios. It broke a few times. | 05:44 |
| kunji | godzirra: It mostly was for 12.04 as well, but there was a kernel update that made one of my devices jam the entire wireless band if it came under heavy load, it wasn't fun | 05:44 |
| godzirra | Doh. | 05:44 |
| grahamcracker | but 12.04 kept using the one onboard | 05:44 |
| superear | 13.04 every app went slow ,why? | 05:44 |
| grahamcracker | 12.04 on my laptop is just fine though | 05:45 |
| grahamcracker | -o000000/[p'''''''qw23r4444| | 05:45 |
| grahamcracker | sorry | 05:45 |
| grahamcracker | i was wiping my keyboard | 05:45 |
| FloodBot1 | grahamcracker: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:45 |
| cocomo | how can i know the package version before installing it through sudo apt-get install? | 05:46 |
| godzirra | aeon-ltd: If I'm using refit, I don't need grub or anything right? Do I neven need the partition mounted in /boot ? | 05:46 |
| superear | i love unity!!! | 05:46 |
| godzirra | I can boot refit with a livecd, but I can't figure out how to reinstall it from that live cd. I think I need to install it to an hfs+ partition | 05:47 |
| aeon-ltd | godzirra: i've found this but this user used quite an old macbook http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5166788&postcount=21 | 05:47 |
| godzirra | Thanks, let me read up. | 05:48 |
| kunji | cocomo: Umm, I think the simulation will tell you, I might be wrong though | 05:48 |
| dr_willis | !version | 05:48 |

| cocomo | kunji: i just added a repository for jdk now i want to install it but am affraid that sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk might install jdk from ubuntu repository! | 05:50 |
| cocomo | if i add a repository for packages that might also be present in official repo how can i install packages from repo i manually added? | 05:52 |
| godzirra | cocomo: man apt-get | 05:53 |
| timfrost | cocomo: update the sources with 'sudo apt-get update', then use 'apt-cache policy openjdk-7-jdk' to see which repository will be ised | 05:54 |
| timfrost | cocomo: s/ised/used/ :) | 05:54 |
| ubuntuw1204 | Gnea: how can i completely remove samba | 05:55 |
| dr_willis | ubuntuw1204: why do you need to? | 05:56 |
| dr_willis | !info samba | 05:56 |
| ubottu | samba (source: samba): SMB/CIFS file, print, and login server for Unix. In component main, is optional. Version 2:3.6.6-3ubuntu5 (quantal), package size 4010 kB, installed size 22359 kB | 05:56 |
| cocomo | timfrost: ty | 05:57 |
| ubuntuw1204 | dr_willis: actually i want to reinstall samba | 06:00 |
| dr_willis | apt has a reinstall option | 06:01 |
| timfrost | cocomo: look for the 'Candidate:' line, which will show the preferred version (eg, for boinc-client on quantal, I get 'Candidate: 7.0.27+dfsg-5ubuntu0.12.04.1', which is in quantal-updates/universe | 06:01 |
| dr_willis | but why do you expet to gain by it? | 06:01 |
| dr_willis | but what do you expet to gain by reinstalling it? | 06:02 |
| ubuntuw1204 | dr_willis: i have edited smb.conf file without backing it up | 06:04 |
| ubuntuw1204 | dr_willis: also edited some files with gadmin-samba now i am confused... what to do | 06:05 |
| dr_willis | !find smb.conf | 06:05 |
| ubottu | File smb.conf found in fusesmb, ledgersmb, manpages-zh, mythbuntu-common, nautilus-share, sadms, samba-common, samba-common-bin, samba-doc, smbldap-tools (and 2 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=smb.conf&mode=&suite=quantal&arch=any | 06:05 |
| dr_willis | i think the smb.conf is in samba-common | 06:06 |
| wiggmpk | ubuntuw1204: /usr/share/samba/smb.conf should work for you mate | 06:06 |
| dr_willis | purge/reinstall that - to get back an original | 06:06 |

| mickeythewolf | i got a usb drive that show empty but on property it show half of the drive is available | 06:25 |
| mickeythewolf | and it also can not be format | 06:25 |
| jason766 | that means your drive is experiencing a problem | 06:26 |
| OerHeks | mickeythewolf, what kind of usb drive, U3 ? | 06:26 |

| vnc786 | i am running rsync and want to allocate 50% CPU currently i have done renice to -20 but can't see cpu usage high... its still low.. | 06:36 |
| === cal is now known as Guest6543 | ||
| mugsy_ | vnc786: perhaps the rsync process is not bound by cpu? | 06:37 |
| iceroot | vnc786: its a bad idea to set something to -20, specially when it is very io-itensive | 06:38 |
| kunji | vnc786: Disk or network transfer rates are much more likely the cause, but we don't know your hardware setup | 06:38 |
| iceroot | vnc786: and the main bottleneck will be %wa (io) | 06:38 |
| vnc786 | i am just transfering from sata hdd to sata hdd | 06:39 |
| vnc786 | iowait is 39.93 how abt that.. | 06:41 |
| iceroot | vnc786: and the main bottleneck will be %wa (io) | 06:41 |
| iceroot | vnc786: have a look at "ionice" to adjust priority for io-tasks (with the wrong usage you can easily kill the system) | 06:42 |
| vnc786 | iceroot: cpu0 95 cpu1 95 | 06:42 |
| iceroot | vnc786: i dont get what you really want to know. we have told you how to adjust the priority using "ionice" | 06:43 |
| vnc786 | iceroot: cpu0 95 cpu1 95 --->%wa(io) | 06:43 |
| iceroot | vnc786: and the main bottleneck will be %wa (io) | 06:43 |
| iceroot | vnc786: what is your real question? | 06:43 |
| iceroot | vnc786: and with %wa of 95, the system should be already nearly dead | 06:44 |

| iceroot | vnc786: and what is your support-question? | 06:48 |
| vnc786 | can i make rsync more faster by giving priority | 06:50 |
| iceroot | vnc786: and the main bottleneck will be %wa (io) | 06:51 |
| iceroot | vnc786: no | 06:51 |
| dr_willis | vnc786: ddrescue may be a better way to copy/recover from failing hard drives | 06:51 |
| iceroot | vnc786: rsync is waiting ( %wa(it)) for your hdd to deliver/write the data | 06:51 |
| W|cKeD | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1615241/ <---- can someone help in this? network unclaimed....what will i do to make it work? i got ubuntu 10.04 here | 06:52 |
| vnc786 | iceroot: please have a look at top http://pastebin.com/aJajqAxj | 06:52 |
| iceroot | vnc786: the main problem is rsync is acting on a higher level, when you are using dd (or ddrescue) its working on low-level and does not to the complete repairing when something is broken | 06:52 |
| iceroot | vnc786: rsync will try to reread something when there are ioerrors, dd will ignore those errors | 06:53 |
| iceroot | vnc786: but ioerror means "file is broken" | 06:53 |

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 | 10:08 |

Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 10:51 |

| Jpmh | Ben64: ty | 11:10 |
| Jpmh | jrib: is it just the desktop that makes it lighter or is there more? | 11:11 |
| MonkeyDust | Jpmh try a live cd or usb to experience the difference | 11:11 |

| Ben64 | because add-apt-repository is a python script | 11:25 |

| ggherdov | jrib: it's already in place. both $http_proxy and $https_proxy have the right value. I use tinyproxy to manage everything. | 11:30 |
| ggherdov | jrib: i.e. , if I do "curl launchpad.net" , I get the HTML back (code 200 I mean) | 11:32 |

| jrib | ggherdov: see http://askubuntu.com/questions/53146/how-do-i-get-add-apt-repository-to-work-through-a-proxy It seems like it's because sudo sanitizes your environment and removes the proxy. You can try "sudo -i", then set http_proxy, then try add-apt-repository (no sudo) | 11:39 |
| lpanebr | peter__e: I do not have it installed. It never worked. I was happy using the integradet Intel driver. | 11:39 |

| peter__e | lpanebr, so that rules out your Radeon at least | 11:41 |
| peter__e | lpanebr, and I have very little experience with intel's stuff, sorry | 11:41 |
| lpanebr | peter__e: yes, I guess it does. I's gotta be something with the Intel integrated.. | 11:41 |
| lpanebr | peter__e: do you recommend installing the catalist? | 11:43 |
| peter__e | lpanebr, I recommend using what you think is best for you :P only suggested Catalyst 13.1 because I know it supports GPU switching | 11:44 |
| nearst | hi ppl | 11:44 |
| peter__e | lpanebr, if you install Catalyst manually you have to be careful with some stuff... like checking for kernel and xorg updates, because you'd need to uninstall catalyst frt, install the upgrade and reinstall catalyst everytime | 11:45 |

| David_BT5 | I have had the same Problem | 13:08 |
| David_BT5 | but with backtrack 5 | 13:08 |
| David_BT5 | i installed the 32x bits version | 13:08 |
| BlackNarcissus | Hello David_BT5 | 13:08 |
| David_BT5 | my computer kept crashing | 13:08 |
| David_BT5 | and it shuts down randomly. | 13:09 |
| David_BT5 | after my researches , i found that | 13:09 |

| chrbo | hi, is there a way to reboot the live-cd without having to press ENTER in the end? | 13:09 |
| David_BT5 | @Chrbo : try to open the terminal and type : reboot. and then ctrl + alt + delete | 13:10 |
| David_BT5 | but i don't find any positive point from running a linux from a live CD | 13:10 |
| David_BT5 | installing it is much much better | 13:10 |
| David_BT5 | and it gives you a great experience. | 13:10 |
| chrbo | David_BT5: I used ubuntu to install a custom linux, but I am not where the computer is right now. | 13:11 |
| BlackNarcissus | David_BT5: So you're saying installing a 64bits distro could solve this ? | 13:11 |
| chrbo | David_BT5: I need to ensure that the computer is actually booting without anyone touching it | 13:11 |
| David_BT5 | black : yes. ( the same problem happened with me ) | 13:11 |
| David_BT5 | @chrbo : | 13:12 |
| David_BT5 | when you install it | 13:12 |
| David_BT5 | it won't ask you for anything anymore/ | 13:12 |
| David_BT5 | (remove the CD and Click on enter) | 13:12 |
| BlackNarcissus | David_BT5: Ok, I will look into it. Thanks. | 13:12 |
| David_BT5 | besides, you will be able to save everything. | 13:12 |
| David_BT5 | @black : are you running any additional Programs on your Dist. ? | 13:12 |
| chrbo | David_BT5: I used the livedisk to install gentoo. now I am 50km away and I want to boot into that installation, so I want to skip the warning about removing the cd. it's a notebook drive, so it won't pull the cd back in | 13:13 |

| David_BT5 | put your hand on the back of your Laptop | 13:14 |
| David_BT5 | is it Hot ? | 13:14 |
| David_BT5 | if not , then You must consider Updating your VGA drivers | 13:14 |

| David_BT5 | 1- VGA drivers | 13:14 |
| David_BT5 | 2- Wrong architecture 32x or 64x bits | 13:14 |

| lesshaste | DJones, but I see that I have ttf-mscorefonts-installer intalled.. does that actually include fonts and if so, how can I list them? | 13:49 |
| DJones | lesshaste: Installing the ttf-mscorefonts-installer should get you the fonts as far as I'm aware | 13:49 |
| escott | erupter, still dont understand the question. what does c++ have to do with anything | 13:49 |
| erupter | escott, you asked me why it was not a basic bash question, I told you I don't use bash. | 13:50 |
| erupter | or rather: bash is the underlying shell, but I need to control it from code | 13:50 |
| escott | erupter, seems silly to be trying to do redirection from c++, but presumably you just setup the redirected filedescriptors and then execve your program | 13:51 |

It is only squi | 13:51 |

So I uninstalled it, but now Ubuntu's loader (forget the name) doesn't run. No 1. No2, I installed BUM to turn off services on system startup and I see openarena-server activated??

| eriknewb | Cause even though its not gonna be using 5GB of ram, the thing im going to be biilding requires 64bit libs | 15:17 |

| mindbreaker | after restarting networking service? | 15:17 |
| tapas | neil098: try a window manager without compositing | 15:17 |
| tapas | neil098: it might be your 3d gfx driver | 15:18 |
| Seanw95 | yes | 15:18 |
| eriknewb | im just gonna do a clean install inside vbox then | 15:18 |
| tapas | e.g. use kde and press alt-shift-f12 | 15:18 |
| tapas | which disables compositing.. | 15:18 |
| Seanw95 | Shall I send the error report and continue? | 15:18 |
| mindbreaker | yes | 15:18 |
| tapas | neil098: possibly it can be disabled in gnome, too.. but i don't use that *shudder* | 15:18 |
| OerHeks | eriknewb, that is the fastest way, clone it after install to keep a fresh copy | 15:18 |
| Seanw95 | How would i go about restarting gnomw | 15:19 |
| Seanw95 | gnome, seeing as my desktop is now gone | 15:19 |

| JeyKeu | Today I installed Ubuntu via a usb flash disk. I had windows 8 previously. After installation, I have lost my D E partitions. Any help willl be greatly appriciated | 16:54 |
| usr13 | nicofs: You only need to get rid of third party graphics drivers, (or proprietary ones), the others are built-in. | 16:54 |
| nicofs | usr13, i need the proprietary drivers for steam to run... | 16:54 |
| JeyKeu | I'm in deep triuble!!! | 16:55 |
| philinux | nicofs: system settings and look at additional drivers | 16:55 |
| usr13 | nicofs: What display adapter do you have? | 16:55 |
| usr13 | nicofs: lspci | pastebinit | 16:55 |
| nicofs | usr13, GeForce 9600 GT | 16:56 |
| punky | JeyKeu, did you install on C partition or re-partitioned your drive? | 16:56 |
| usr13 | nicofs: I suggest you download and install from nvidia.com | 16:57 |
| irqq | any experts about MegaCli here? | 16:57 |
| nicofs | philinux, it is set to what it should... the latest proprietary - and yet I'm having issues I shouldn't have... | 16:57 |
| JeyKeu | it asked whetehr i want to get rid of windows and i checked that box | 16:57 |
| irqq | ... or what channel I could go to? | 16:57 |
| philinux | nicofs: what are the issues? | 16:57 |
| usr13 | nicofs: 64bit or 32? | 16:58 |
| SunilJoshi | Hi, After install graphics driver i was not able to use unity desktop | 16:58 |
| nicofs | usr13, i googled my issues and others have reported conflicting driver issues after installing from nvidia.com - 64bit | 16:58 |
| punky | ok, and what about partitions? | 16:58 |
| nicofs | philinux, "Required OpenGL extension "GL_EXT_texture_sRGB_decode" is not supported." | 16:59 |
| JeyKeu | I dont see them, i can see 640gb in gpart | 16:59 |
| usr13 | nicofs: SO uninstall the one you have now first. | 16:59 |
| punky | Did anyone installed ubuntu from multibuut flash? | 16:59 |
| nicofs | usr13, how? obviously something like apt-get purge... but purge what? | 17:00 |
| JeyKeu | sorry, not getting ur question? | 17:00 |
| punky | JeyKeu, seems like you destroyed other parts so you need some recovery software like EasyRecovery. also, a great LiveCD (ubuntu-based, heh) named CAINE saved me after RAID destruction | 17:00 |
| JeyKeu | so i need another gigantic hdd to store those files? | 17:01 |

| usr13 | nicofs: ls /var/lib/dpkg/info/*idia* | 17:01 |
| BadKarMah | Does anyone know how to setup a local network install with Ubuntu 12.10? | 17:02 |
| nicofs | philinux, I was able to get rid of that error by adding a repo (ubuntu-x-swat), but after rebooting, the error was back. I assume that at some point there are conflicting drivers... I just don't know where to start sorting that out | 17:02 |
| BadKarMah | I use to extract the Alternate CD ISO to build a network installer | 17:02 |
| punky | JeyKeu, yes, or through network. | 17:02 |
| usr13 | nicofs: and then apt-get remove or purge nvidia-what-ever | 17:02 |
| === rafa is now known as Guest69656 | ||
| usr13 | nicofs: Or myabe just nvidia* | 17:03 |
| JeyKeu | so CAINE is better in ur experience/opinion? | 17:03 |
| MartynKeigher | hey, i just installed 12.04.1 server and im a cli | 17:03 |
| MartynKeigher | *at a clie | 17:03 |
| MartynKeigher | how do i get into the GUI? | 17:03 |
| dgbaley27 | Hey. Are the regular repositories precise,quantal,etc completely immutable after a release has been made, so that all updates go in -updates or -security? | 17:03 |
| bazhang | MartynKeigher, server is cli | 17:03 |
| MonkeyDust | MartynKeigher server has no GUI by default, you have to install it | 17:03 |
| punky | JeyKeu, it's a just an ubuntu live with a massive recovery utils bundled | 17:03 |
| MartynKeigher | ah! | 17:03 |
| MartynKeigher | off to gogole i go! | 17:04 |
| MartynKeigher | 17:04 | |
| usr13 | nicofs: And then, I'd restart the Xserver in order to get back on the OpenSource driver and go from there. Looks like this is what you need: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-amd64-310.32-driver.html | 17:04 |
| craigbass1976 | I'm trying to edit my ip address permanently. Is /etc/network/interfaces still the place ot do it? I see an tface br0 in there, but have no idea what that might be. | 17:04 |
| MonkeyDust | MartynKeigher if you want a GUI, better use the desktop iso | 17:04 |
| usr13 | nicofs: ... or just reboot ... | 17:04 |
| JeyKeu | testdisk, i heard good in recovery | 17:04 |
| MartynKeigher | is the desktop Unity on server too, or gnome? | 17:05 |
| JeyKeu | sothere is no undoingmy ubuntu install? | 17:05 |
| nicofs | usr13, I have *-current, *-experimental and *-settings... i guess settings is the little tool i use to change my settings... ubuntu will default to built-in drivers if i just remove all nvidia stuff? | 17:05 |
| punky | JeyKeu it also appear in caine :-) | 17:05 |
| JeyKeu | I think this is a BIG flow in ubuntu installer. they should have warned my twice or something | 17:05 |
| BadKarMah | so 12.10 does not have Alternate ISOs anymore, does anyone know how to setup a local network install that's just big enough for "Ubuntu Desktop" , can I extract the Ubuntu Live CD and automate Ubiquity and use my existing preseed file?? | 17:05 |
| JeyKeu | ok | 17:05 |
| usr13 | nicofs: Yea, that might be part of the problem. Just remove nvidia* | 17:05 |

| makara- | hi. I messed up my bootloader being greedy. I read an article in hackernews about e4rat and installed it. But apparently Ubuntu already has it's own. So I uninstalled it, but now Ubuntu's loader (forget the name) doesn't run. No 1. No2, I installed BUM to turn off services on system startup and I see openarena-server activated?? I uninstalled OpenArena ages ago, and looking in Synaptic there's nothing there. Any ideas? | 17:49 |

| modgod | i just set up the server a few days ago to be web ready, but i'm use to centos5.5 so ubuntu is still new to me | 18:46 |
| compdoc | modgod, did you select LAMP during the install? | 18:49 |
| ClientAlive | theuser: so I installed jupiter to check it out. I opened dash, found it, and clicked the icon to launch. I get a window pops up (which has been going on for some time now anyway) that says: "Sorry, Ubuntu 12.04 has experienced and internal error." | 18:49 |
| theuser | ClientAlive, Did you try 12.10? | 18:50 |
| ClientAlive | theuser: I'd rather have an LTS version (though I hear Ubuntu is phasing the scheme out). | 18:51 |
| nedbat | I'm trying to limit a user's resource with pam_limits.so, and a .conf in /etc/security/limits.d. It works when I su as that user, but not when I sudo -u as that user. Am I right? | 18:52 |
| jey | how do I disable the bullshit bash completion that tries to be intelligent but just gets in the fucking way all the time? I just want the normal behavior where it just completes paths without trying to guess what I'm doing and refusing to complete paths | 18:52 |
| compdoc | phasing out LTS would be a mistake | 18:52 |
| MaynardWaters | L3top: back to the boot loader install prompt | 18:52 |
| MaynardWaters | default /dev/mapper failed | 18:52 |
| theuser | ClientAlive, for desktop i favour just sticking with the freshest version, but wait a few weeks to a month from the release date to upgrade | 18:52 |
| Pici | jey: enough with the cursing. | 18:52 |
| MaynardWaters | during the partitioning i saw /dev/mapper/isw_bhciaffgai_ARRAY | 18:52 |
| MaynardWaters | im going to try that location | 18:52 |
| L3top | MaynardWaters: please explain what you mean by boot loader install prompt? You mean you rebooted and you are back at the installer menu? If so, remove the media and reboot. | 18:53 |
| L3top | media = cd/dvd/usb drive you isntalled from | 18:53 |
| MaynardWaters | L3top: after chaning the Raid config in the bios i started a fresh install | 18:53 |
| MaynardWaters | then i got the the grub install part | 18:53 |
| MaynardWaters | which is where it has continually failed in the past | 18:54 |
| MaynardWaters | i have now entered the /dev/mapper/isw_ from above, because I saw that during the partitioning part | 18:54 |
| MaynardWaters | it appears to have correctly installed grub and completed the installation | 18:54 |
| MaynardWaters | will try a reboot now and see if it can boot | 18:54 |
| L3top | excellent. Make sure you eject whatever install medium you used | 18:55 |
| MaynardWaters | yes! | 18:55 |
| MaynardWaters | thanks L3top i should have thought about trying different bios configs | 18:55 |

| modgod | <compdoc> : No I didn't select LAMP during install. I installed everything individually | 19:02 |
| modgod | apt-get mysql, apache2 | 19:02 |
| modgod | etc | 19:03 |
| sliva | MonkeyDust: i followed this guide: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/09/unity-webapps-available-in-ubuntu-1210.html | 19:03 |
| sliva | how ever when i visit the page (for example facebook) nothing happens | 19:03 |

| compdoc | modgod, I always choose OpenSSH, LAMP, Print server, and Samba from that install screen. Works like a charm | 19:04 |
| daddyjoseph97 | requisite preamble - google not being a friend today, no solutions seem relevant to this problem; I've been trying a bunch of slimming solutions for ubuntu 12.10 however with lxde. openbox, fluxbox, wow... forgot all the others, well same issue happens: menus of all sorts (including 'official dialogues' like verifying shutdown, logout, etc) are mostly offscreen and I can't find a solution to fix this problem. I have been tryin | 19:06 |
| sliva | MonkeyDust: do you got any idea what that could be ? | 19:07 |
| modgod | compdoc: but if I alreayd have a server set up with a client looking at the website for review, will doing an "apt-get install lamp " break and overide anything? | 19:07 |
| MonkeyDust | sliva no, i don't use firefox or webapps myself | 19:07 |
| daddyjoseph97 | anyone know about this issue or some useful phrases or names of the concepts that would give info to use now and I can bookmark for the future? | 19:07 |
| compdoc | modgod, not even sure thats an option for apt-get, but worth a try I guess | 19:07 |
| modgod | compdoc: i'm doing everything from the command line. I just don't want to break anything if its not broken already. If it was for personal use thats one thing, but I don't want to expiernent on server containing websites for client review | 19:09 |

I have tried to get the solarized color theme to work (http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized) but compared to this screenshot http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized/img/screen-c-dark.png I have a darker background behind characters.

| jhutchins_wk | jiffe98: When they started enabling ipv6 by default in the kernel, DNS lookups would try that first and time out. This made lookups when only ipv4 was available very slow until you disabled ipv6. | 20:24 |

| seanw95 | According to everyone i've tried to speak to over the past 5 days | 20:41 |
| seanw95 | it should work out of the box | 20:41 |
| jhutchins_wk | seanw95: We try to keep support in the channel so others can contribute and benefit. | 20:41 |
| theadmin | seanw95: Yes, it should... What kind of a network is it? Plain ethernet or is there some sort of PPPoE, PPTP or whatnot? | 20:41 |
| meelu | jhutchins_wk: I got an ipv6 address block /64 from my server provider, he gave Gateway details, including Nameservers 1&2 and Netnetmask | 20:42 |
| seanw95 | it's a Nforce 630a chipset.... Straight ethernet from my motherboard to router/modem | 20:42 |
| seanw95 | what do you mean jhutchins_wk | 20:42 |
| theadmin | Oh, I had a problem with an NForce before. Dunno, it somehow fixed itself in a later release. | 20:42 |

| axisys | is the the ubuntu logo on the top left corner? | 20:51 |
| Salve | theadmin: but, does it exist? | 20:51 |
| bin0 | fully_human: jockey-gtk package installed only the terminal verison | 20:51 |
| axisys | ok.. let me type jockey, see what I find | 20:51 |
| Salve | theadmin: google returns nadda | 20:52 |
| bin0 | fully_human: no idea why | 20:52 |
| theadmin | Salve: It may exist, check kernel.org for details. But, the only kernels supported by Ubuntu are those which are in the Ubuntu repositories and that's it | 20:52 |
| WeThePeople | what is the command to launch the app where i can change proxies? | 20:52 |
| fully_human | bin0: Did you install jockey as well? | 20:52 |
| fully_human | bin0: Just plain "jockey" as well as "jockey-gtk"? | 20:52 |

| fully_human | bin0: jockey-common and jockey-gtk, sorry about that. | 20:53 |
| trism | bin0: the interface formerly know as jockey was moved to software-properties-gtk in 12.10 | 20:54 |
| theadmin | fully_human: You realise APT does depndency resolution, right? This isn't Slackware. So you could simply install jockey-gtk and everything else'd be pulled in as necessary | 20:54 |
| fully_human | theadmin: Ah, okay... :-) Didn't work for me when I did it, but thanks. | 20:55 |
| bin0 | trism: fully_human well in software-properties-gtk is nothing to be found about propietary drivers | 20:56 |
| axisys | theadmin: installing jockey | 20:57 |
| fully_human | bin0: right. I think trism is saying you should enable "Independent" repository under "Software Sources." | 20:58 |
| fully_human | bin0: | 20:59 |
| fully_human | Oops..stupid thumb pressed ENTER. | 20:59 |
| bin0 | fully_human: its enabled | 20:59 |
| trism | fully_human: nope, saying that the "Additional Drivers" stuff is on a separate tab in that app now instead of a separate jockey-gtk app | 20:59 |

| trism | bin0: looks fine, have you rebooted between installing the driver? have you tried nvidia-settings? | 21:01 |
| bin0 | trism: nvidia-settings says: "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server." | 21:01 |
| bin0 | trism: yes rebooted varios times | 21:01 |
| bin0 | trism: i also tried the given command proposed in nvidia-settings | 21:02 |
| trism | bin0: ahh, you might need to run: sudo nvidia-xconfig; if you didn't use the Additional Drivers stuff to install the nvidia driver | 21:02 |
| trism | bin0: though actually shouldn't matter in 12.10 | 21:02 |

| tjbiddle | Hey guys. Quick opinion: Any problem with running apt-get update via cron? I use Puppet to manage a few servers, and deploy in-house applications with debian packages, but having Puppet execute apt-get update before a run every time marks the servers as "changed" even though a new package may not be available. | 21:04 |
| axisys | theadmin: probably wont help with my ipw2200 | 21:04 |
| axisys | theadmin: right? | 21:04 |
| bin0 | trism: its not listed in lsmod, should i modprobe it? | 21:04 |
| theadmin | tjbiddle: APT has a built-in unattended upgrade feature, see /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades | 21:04 |

| MoPac2 | Anybody here know about issues with keyboard language layout in the LUKS cryptsetup access screen? I have a password character that is in a different place depending on the language layout, and Ubuntu seems to be using a different default on that screen | 21:05 |
| theadmin | tjbiddle: Ah, I see, didn't realise that. Well just run apt-get update with cron I guess,that should be totally safe -- upgrading packages on the other hand is not | 21:05 |
| axisys | theadmin: btw, setting -> software resources -> additional drivers works too instead of installing jockey .. | 21:06 |
| bin0 | trism: no nouveau ist listed either now | 21:06 |
| theadmin | axisys: Must be new in 12.10, I'm on 12.04 so I was unaware of that. | 21:06 |
| axisys | I saw the same drivier not acitvated before getting jockey installed | 21:06 |
| axisys | theadmin: synergy :-) | 21:06 |
| trism | bin0: alright then, may try modprobing it and restarting x, though weird that it isn't there already | 21:06 |
| axisys | theadmin: so ipw2200 is already in lsmod | 21:06 |
| axisys | theadmin: so what am I missing? | 21:07 |

| Krustyklimber | can anyone explain how to print, using Ubuntu 12.04? | 22:16 |
| thccookie | no, server settings not be lost if you save config-s | 22:16 |
| bin_bash | Krustyklimber, first you should install the drivers for your printer. then you should print. | 22:17 |
| thccookie | try save hole folder /home | 22:17 |
| thccookie | and restore etc and share | 22:17 |
| thccookie | in new system | 22:17 |
| Krustyklimber | I installed the drivers... I just can't figure out how to send a pdf file to the printer | 22:17 |

| Krustyklimber | I was looking for something to click on... still not used to having to type commands... thanks | 22:19 |
| carlom61 | so I guess I gotta give out my IP | 22:20 |
| bin_bash | ctl-p is not a command | 22:20 |
| bin_bash | it's a keyboard shortcut | 22:20 |
| auronandace | Krustyklimber: i assume it would be under file > print too | 22:20 |
| SirClueless | is there a way to force a relog? like restarting the dm or something? | 22:21 |
| Krustyklimber | hmmm I don't see file print | 22:21 |

| bin_bash | should work | 22:21 |

| Krustyklimber | that sounds complicated... but thanks for the advice | 22:23 |
| Krustyklimber | I liked havinf a printer icon to click though :) | 22:23 |
| Krustyklimber | *having | 22:24 |
| bin_bash | You should really not rely on the GUI so much | 22:24 |
| bin_bash | This is why most linux users say that Ubuntu teaches bad habits | 22:24 |
| thccookie | SirClueless, did you mess up .gl files or play with you graphicall driver? | 22:24 |
| Krustyklimber | I shouldn't, but I am not very computer literate | 22:24 |
| bin_bash | Then why are you using Linux? | 22:24 |
| Tex_Nick | Krustyklimber: also you can right-click on the toolbar ... choose "more tools" ... then find and enable print ... should give you a printer icon to click | 22:24 |
| SirClueless | thccookie: yes, the update removed fglrx as part of upgrading | 22:25 |
| thccookie | SirClueless, go to sudo apt-get update -f | 22:25 |

| SirClueless | thccookie: done | 22:26 |
| carlom61 | how can I make a localhost/whatever.file public providing somebody direct URL? | 22:26 |
| bin_bash | carlom61, you have to have a public_http directory | 22:27 |
| bin_bash | with dns setup | 22:27 |
| bin_bash | and a webserver | 22:27 |
| bin_bash | and port forwarding | 22:27 |
| carlom61 | cant I simply use my direct public IP? | 22:28 |
| bin_bash | sure, if the port is forwarded | 22:28 |
| genii-around | carlom61: Yes, if your router is set to forward port 80 to your internal machine | 22:28 |
| carlom61 | I suppose so yes | 22:28 |
| carlom61 | altough I reckon it's not set as such by default, right | 22:29 |
| Krustyklimber | thanks again folks, have a great day | 22:29 |
| bin_bash | carlom61, no. you have to set it to forward | 22:29 |
| Chosi | hey there, there's a customer that is having trouble getting his dual monitor setup in 10.04 working. he's on 2x nvidia quadro 600 - is there anything known broken with this setup? i'd just like to know what i'm into when i try to fix it tomorrow | 22:29 |
| fbdystang | What all do I need to backup to upgrade 11.04 to 11.10 then newer? | 22:30 |
| bin_bash | fbdystang, you should be able to just apt-get dist-upgrade | 22:31 |
| bin_bash | but if you want | 22:31 |
| bin_bash | you should backup your entire /home directory unless you're smart and put it on its own partition | 22:32 |
| fbdystang | bin_bash: I am running a few servers like samba and others, and I don't want to lose settings. | 22:32 |
| carlom61 | so in the Port Forwarding / Port Triggering menu of the router I'd add a service HTTP for forwarding to....? | 22:32 |
| bin_bash | fbdystang, then back up the config files for those | 22:32 |
| bin_bash | seems pretty self-explanatory, no? | 22:32 |
| genii-around | fbdystang: dist-upgrade does not increment from 11.04 to 11.10 for instance. You require to do do-release-upgrade for that. | 22:33 |
| fbdystang | bin_bash: I have one of the servers running in var/www so just copying /home wont copy everything. I have a bigger SATA drive on raid connected so I can backkup whatever I need to. I just don't know where all the stuff is to backup. Is it possible to copy an entire hd if I am running on it? | 22:35 |
| bin_bash | no | 22:35 |
| bin_bash | you have to boot into a live environment | 22:35 |
| genii-around | carlom61: First you should probably set the router to set the same LAN number to your machine every time by it's mac address. Then do the port forwarding to that specific IP. | 22:35 |
| fbdystang | Ah yes, then I can completely back it up, thanks bin_bash | 22:36 |
| bin_bash | np | 22:36 |
| bin_bash | fbdystang, yeah make sure if you have anything in /etc that you need or whateve that you back it up | 22:36 |
| bin_bash | you can always use rsync to back it up, which imo, is the best utility | 22:36 |
| bin_bash | rsync -av source dest | 22:36 |
| Apes | rsync doesn't actually make true backups, but it could be good enough | 22:37 |
| dlam | this may be a weird question, but i have a remote computer with eth0 and eth1, when i SSH to an IP in /etc/hosts on etho0, it hands | 22:37 |
| fbdystang | bin_bash: what other folders could have important stuff? | 22:37 |
| bin_bash | fbdystang, uhhh all of them? I don't know what you consider important | 22:37 |
| dlam | *it hangs, but for the hostname binded to eth1, i connect normally | 22:37 |
| dlam | anyone know what to check? | 22:37 |
| bin_bash | Apes, what's wrong with rsync? | 22:37 |
| Apes | dlam: ssh -vvv | 22:37 |
| genii-around | dlam: Whichever interface is brought up last becomes your default route | 22:38 |
| fbdystang | bin_bash: can you explain briefly what rsync can do? | 22:38 |
| Apes | bin_bash: There is an in depth article about it I can try to dig up if you want. But the short of it is that rsync doesn't handle a lot of edge cases. | 22:38 |
| bin_bash | fbdystang, man rsync | 22:38 |
| bin_bash | Apes, I'd like to read it | 22:38 |

| SirClueless | what do you recommend to do to fix this? | 22:47 |
| Ben64 | easy way would be to not use unity | 22:47 |
| escott | jrib, hmmm a lot of things break when you try to use pipes.. i always assumed it was a straight execve | 22:48 |
| SirClueless | is 12.10 just not as tested as 12.04 or something? | 22:48 |
| jrib | escott: ah, yes I try to keep cron lines very simple for exactly that reason :P | 22:48 |
| SirClueless | because things were fine before the upgrade | 22:48 |
| Ben64 | SirClueless: 12.10 got rid of unity2d | 22:48 |
| SirClueless | ahh, so you think the problem is that i *never* had unity3d running | 22:49 |
| carlom61 | is there anybody expert on closed source unified NVIDIA drivers install who already knows how to resolve the issue with the disappearance of Unity ecc right after latest drivers have been installed? | 22:50 |
| SirClueless | that's possible, i think there was one point where i compiled the latest ATI driver from source and it worked with Unity3d, but then Ubuntu released the -experimental-9 driver which I installed but that didn't work | 22:50 |
| Ben64 | SirClueless: yeah on 12.04 you probably had unity 2d going, and now its trying 3d but not working for.... some reason | 22:50 |
| SirClueless | i will try compiling the AMD drivers from source again | 22:50 |

| carlom61 | I do install prop drivers thereafter I cant see anything else than the display background and cant restore Unity | 22:52 |
| carlom61 | ah ok | 22:52 |
| Ben64 | maybe your drivers aren't actually in use? | 22:52 |
| carlom61 | now I have Nouveau and they do work perfectly | 22:53 |
| Ben64 | nouveau isn't nvidia | 22:53 |
| escott | jrib, i always just call out to a script as a best practice... i guess i've confused a best practice with a necessity | 22:54 |
| genii-around | tcstar: I think you're probably better off to do mail -u <your-username> -t fred@wherever, tina@wherever, etc@wherever -S "Subject" | 22:54 |

| SonikkuAmerica | schweegi: You don't. | 23:02 |
| nemo | wondering if that's risky for chromebook-arm, and how long it might be in proposed (maybe I can just wait) | 23:02 |
| schweegi | TheLordOfTime: How long is it saved? | 23:02 |
| jirido | SonikkuAmerica, lubuntu | 23:02 |
| TheLordOfTime | schweegi: no clue, | 23:03 |
| SonikkuAmerica | jirido: Do you have a window list on your LXDE panel? | 23:03 |
| SirClueless | oh heavens, i think i entered the twilight zone | 23:03 |
| schweegi | genii-around: true, there some personal information in it :( | 23:03 |
| jirido | SonikkuAmerica, yes | 23:03 |
| SirClueless | fragments of my desktop are overlaying my TTY2 | 23:03 |
| SonikkuAmerica | jirido: And Firefox doesn't show up there when you minimize it? | 23:03 |
| doomsayer | Has anyone else been having uninstall issues? I keep getting "ordinal not in range(128)" when I try and reinstall ubuntu. | 23:03 |
| schweegi | can i contact canonical to delete it? | 23:03 |
| genii-around | schweegi: I'm trying to find out if there are any steps which can be taken | 23:04 |
| jirido | SonikkuAmerica, no then it goes beside the clock | 23:04 |
| schweegi | genii-around: thanks :) sorry for my poor english. | 23:04 |
| SonikkuAmerica | jirido: Well I don't use LXDE. I'm probably going to need a screenshot of what happens. | 23:05 |
| jirido | SonikkuAmerica, really anoying | 23:05 |
| jirido | SonikkuAmerica, the icon is between networkmanager and the clock | 23:05 |
| genii-around | schweegi: I think the most immediate thing to do is probably email webmaster@ubuntu.com explaining your mistake | 23:06 |
| SonikkuAmerica | jirido: That means it showed up in Workspace Switcher. | 23:06 |
| doomsayer | I am having issues reinstalling ubuntu, can someone please help? :) | 23:07 |
| schweegi | genii-around: it's not my mistake, a friend send me his error log which contains personal information about him :( thank you, i try email the webmaster :) | 23:07 |
| SonikkuAmerica | jirido: Try right-clicking your LXDE panel and selecting "Add..." Then add a "Window List" | 23:07 |
| jirido | SonikkuAmerica, i dont really know what you mean but if u mean the one one change desktops with i dont think i have it on the bar/ ok | 23:07 |
| genii-around | schweegi: You may also want to visit #canonical-sysadmin and if you ask them nicely they may have someone handy who can remove it immediately. | 23:08 |
| SonikkuAmerica | doomsayer: It sounds like something wasn't done in Unicode (UTF-8) or got corrupted on your ISO image. | 23:09 |
| doomsayer | Seems logical. How would I go about repairing that? | 23:10 |
| adam__ | does anybody know how to setup joysticks in wine?? | 23:10 |
| SonikkuAmerica | jirido: The "Window List" is the place where you can see what windows you have in that workspace. (Like the Windows taskbar) | 23:10 |
| schweegi | genii-around: thank you very much for your help :) | 23:10 |
| andreb | hi all | 23:10 |
| andreb | anyone here using postifx.. | 23:10 |
| SonikkuAmerica | doomsayer: Good question. My best guess is to re-download your ISO and write it to a disc or make a new USB image from it | 23:11 |
| andreb | any time i edit my main.cf option smtp_sasl_password_maps | 23:11 |
| andreb | and save it | 23:11 |
| andreb | and do postfix reload the changes are removed from the file | 23:11 |
| jirido | SonikkuAmerica, yes i did and now its two windowlists and the watch and that is in middle and all windows are on both but firefox still dont show on alt tab around :( | 23:11 |
| SonikkuAmerica | jirido: Oh, you had one before; my bad. Get rid of the one you just added. Did Firefox prematurely shut itself down? | 23:12 |
| doomsayer | SonikkuAmerica: I am currently trying to install Mint via a live CD but wubi is getting in the way. I wish to just completely remove ubuntu out of the way but the uninstall keeps running in to errors. | 23:12 |
| jirido | No | 23:12 |
| Ben64 | doomsayer: we can't help you with mint | 23:13 |
| SonikkuAmerica | doomsayer: It won't uninstall from Windows? | 23:13 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Ben64: Mint isn't his problem. Wubi getting in the way of Mint4Win is. | 23:13 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Ben64: He's got bad code in Wubi. | 23:13 |
| doomsayer | What Sonikku said is correct. | 23:13 |
| doomsayer | And I cannot boot into ubuntu. | 23:14 |
| Ben64 | well then uninstall it from windows | 23:14 |
| doomsayer | Ben64: I am trying but I cannot get past wubi. | 23:14 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Ben64: He can't; "ordinal not in range" is blocking him from uninstall. | 23:14 |
| jirido | SonikkuAmerica, no it has been stable but as i dont want to update it to loose all pluggins that dont keep up with the high updaterate it might be in a state where it has asked to update and i have denied and it still want to restart.. It could be somthing like that could it? | 23:15 |
| SonikkuAmerica | doomsayer: Try opening Explorer, browsing to your C: drive and deleting the "ubuntu" folder. | 23:15 |
| Ben64 | then...... use windows to fixmbr, and delete ubuntu | 23:15 |
| Ben64 | make sure to fixmbr or you can't boot windows anymore | 23:15 |
| SonikkuAmerica | jirido: It could be. But I can't really diagnose problems with Firefox. I use Chrome. | 23:16 |
| === adam__ is now known as iRy-- | ||
| SonikkuAmerica | doomsayer: If you have Windows Vista or later, use "bootrec /fixmbr" | 23:16 |
| doomsayer | Thank you. the fixmbr was confusing me. | 23:16 |
| Tex_Nick | schweegi: something to cinsider in the future ... if you use pastebin.com you/he can specify an expiration time | 23:17 |
| SonikkuAmerica | jirido: Try logging out and back in, start Firefox, and minimize it. See if it happens again. | 23:18 |
| Tex_Nick | consider ^ | 23:18 |
| jirido | Ok | 23:19 |
| SonikkuAmerica | jirido: I'll be back, I have to plug in my laptop. | 23:19 |
| iRy-- | anybody know how to configure a joystick in wine | 23:19 |
| jirido | SonikkuAmerica, Ok Thanks. i guess its this update thing.. i dont know why it want to restart as i dont update it..?? hm | 23:20 |
| jirido | i restart it to check | 23:21 |
| jirido | sonikkuamerika i did restart it to check and now it works.. | 23:22 |
| JennyBlueBird | hi guys, I'm trying to find my GPU temperature for an nVidia card, but none of the usual ways seem to report it | 23:22 |
| JennyBlueBird | nvclock, nvidia-settings and lmsesnors all fail to display it | 23:22 |
| JennyBlueBird | any ideas ? | 23:22 |
| Ben64 | what card | 23:22 |
| JennyBlueBird | 9600 GSO | 23:22 |
| JennyBlueBird | GeForce | 23:22 |
| Tex_Nick | iRy : if you don't get an answer here, you might try #winehq | 23:23 |
| Ben64 | dunno, it should be working | 23:23 |
| bin_bash | How much RAM do you guys typcally use after ~4 hours of usage? | 23:23 |
| JennyBlueBird | if I run nvclock -T I get: Error: failed to mmap PMC | 23:23 |
| jrib | bin_bash: 32 MB. What's your real question? | 23:24 |
| bin_bash | that is my real question | 23:24 |
| Ben64 | jrib: thats pretty good | 23:24 |
| jrib | Ben64: server :) | 23:24 |
| bps | JennyBlueBird: for lm-sensors did you run "sensors-detect" first | 23:24 |
| SonikkuAmerica | jirido: I'm back. | 23:24 |
| iRy-- | thx Tex_Nick but nobody is answering there too that why i thought i will try here | 23:25 |
| bin_bash | jrib, what do you have running on there? | 23:25 |
| Tex_Nick | bin_bash : about the same as the first few minutes of usage ờᴗớ | 23:25 |
| bin_bash | Tex_Nick, and how much is that? | 23:25 |
| jrib | bin_bash: lighttpd, znc, and some python... | 23:25 |
| JennyBlueBird | bps, yea, and it just gives me cpu and motherboard data | 23:26 |
| JennyBlueBird | no GPU | 23:26 |
| Tex_Nick | bin_bash i don't think we understand your issue | 23:28 |
| bin_bash | Tex_Nick, I don't think you're undetstanding the question | 23:28 |
| jirido | SonikkuAmerica, thanks for the energy and care sweet! it was what i suspected | 23:28 |
| TheLordOfTime | bin_bash: your question isn't descriptive enough to allude to why you're asking. | 23:28 |
| bin_bash | TheLordOfTime, the question is literally a survey question | 23:29 |
| SonikkuAmerica | jirido: What was? | 23:29 |
| Tex_Nick | bin_bashthat's obvious :) | 23:29 |
| TheLordOfTime | !survey | bin_bash | 23:29 |
| TheLordOfTime | ... | 23:29 |
| TheLordOfTime | bleh whatever | 23:29 |
| TheLordOfTime | bin_bash: this probably isn't the best place to have a poll/survey. | 23:29 |
| bin_bash | I'm eally just trying to compare. I feel like my system is using a fuckload of RAM | 23:30 |
| jirido | That it waited to restart even i said not to update.. maybe a update of some add-ons.. or whom knows.. :) | 23:30 |
| TheLordOfTime | !language | bin_bash | 23:30 |
| ubottu | bin_bash: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 23:30 |
| jirido | SonikkuAmerica, That it waited to restart even i said not to update.. maybe a update of some add-ons.. or whom knows.. :) | 23:30 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Oh. | 23:30 |
| nemo | bin_bash: I think the amount of ram things on your system use depends a great deal on the amount of memory available | 23:30 |
| jirido | yeahh :) | 23:30 |
| daftykins | JennyBlueBird: 9600GS? desktop card? maybe it's too new for the standard ways to do it. | 23:30 |
| nemo | bin_bash: Firefox for example will use more memory for caching if you have a huge amount of memory, but hardly any at all on my raspberry pi | 23:30 |
| Coded1 | anyone tried installing the latest amd catalyst 13.2 beta 3 drivers? The install fails looking for version.h for me | 23:31 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, I would have though nvidia-settings would do it at least | 23:31 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, but yea, maybe | 23:31 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, though it is a few years | 23:31 |
| jirido | SonikkuAmerica, But thanks anyway and good night and good luck with helping out here tonight ! | 23:31 |
| TheSov | does anyone know where i could find the failed login attempts on ssh, its not in my /var/log/syslog | 23:31 |
| nemo | bin_bash: on my system where I have 16GiB of RAM, 12½GiB are in use, but 10½GiB of that is caching - so pretty much just letting stuff load fast | 23:31 |
| SonikkuAmerica | jirido: You're welcome. | 23:31 |
| nemo | bin_bash: which ofc isn't a waste of RAM at all | 23:32 |
| nemo | bin_bash: the other 2GiB are mostly minecraft servers ;) | 23:32 |
| Tex_Nick | bin_bash ust "system Monitor" to see what process's are usint the memory | 23:32 |
| Tex_Nick | use ^ | 23:32 |
| daftykins | JennyBlueBird: tried the terminal 'nvidia-settings -q gpucoretemp' ? | 23:32 |
| bin_bash | nemo, I've got 4gb and with firefox and everyhting I'm using 737mb, but in a few minutes it'll quickly climb to over 1gb | 23:33 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, yea, it prints 3 blank lines | 23:33 |
| TheLordOfTime | bin_bash: where're you getting your "used" numbers from? | 23:33 |
| jrib | bin_bash: ram is there to be used, "unused ram is wasted ram" is the linux motto | 23:33 |
| jrib | !ram | bin_bash | 23:34 |
| ubottu | bin_bash: If you are wondering why some tools report your system has very little free memory, have a look at http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ | A short primer on Linux memory management can be found here: http://sourcefrog.net/weblog/software/linux-kernel/free-mem.html | 23:34 |
| bin_bash | Tex_Nick, yeah I have htop. firefox is the worst, wicd, xchat, pdigin, X | 23:35 |
| bin_bash | the usual | 23:35 |
| daftykins | JennyBlueBird: are you worried about its' heat or were you just curious? | 23:35 |
| bin_bash | jrib, that's not the linux motto. | 23:36 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, it does overheat some times and I'm trying to see how hot it runs for games and things where it does not | 23:36 |
| jrib | bin_bash: sure it is; it's one of them | 23:36 |
| bin_bash | jrib, no. It is not. | 23:36 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, I mean I know it likely bails at about 95C , but I'm curious if it is always very close or if its just certain things that push it over the top | 23:37 |
| jrib | bin_bash: not literally, no. | 23:37 |
| chrisan | can I install ubuntu 12.10 to harddrive from a 12.04 live cd i made a while back? | 23:37 |
| TheLordOfTime | bin_bash: htop doesn't reliably show the amount of *actual* ram used. Did you look at free -m ? | 23:37 |
| daftykins | JennyBlueBird: yeah i see nvidia.com says the max is 105 C for that card. maybe invest in an aftermarket heatsink+fan assembly? | 23:37 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, tbh it seems as if theres only one game that causes it to overheat, which it REALLY should not since other more demanding ones work fine | 23:38 |
| genii-around | chrisan: Yes, using debootstrap | 23:38 |
| Tex_Nick | bin_bash : firefox can gobble some memory ... right now my firefox is using 243 MiB | 23:38 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, so I suspect really messed up rendering code | 23:38 |
| bin_bash | yeah firefox is horrible, Tex_Nick | 23:38 |
| chrisan | ty genii-around | 23:38 |
| genii-around | !debootstrap | chrisan | 23:39 |
| ubottu | chrisan: debootstrap is used to create a !Debian or Ubuntu base system from scratch, without requiring the availability of !dpkg or !APT. It does this by downloading !.deb files from a mirror site, and carefully unpacking them into a directory you can eventually !chroot into. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot for more information | 23:39 |
| chrisan | sweet thx | 23:39 |
| daftykins | JennyBlueBird: some just use cards badly, yeah | 23:40 |
| Tex_Nick | bin_bash : as jrib pointed out though ... that's what memory is for | 23:40 |
| bin_bash | Tex_Nick, but on boot I shouldn't be using like 300mB that's riduclous | 23:40 |
| daftykins | JennyBlueBird: have you ever used it under Windows to read temps there? | 23:40 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, 2nd favourite explanation I have is FUCK YOU NVIDIA AND YOUR BROKEN DRIVERS! | 23:40 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, don't run windows :) | 23:40 |
| jrib | JennyBlueBird: please mind your language here | 23:41 |
| JennyBlueBird | oh , sorry | 23:41 |
| JennyBlueBird | I mean, even if the code is bad, the driver should not even let the card get that hot, should it ? | 23:41 |
| jrib | bin_bash: 300 MB of 4 GB? I honestly would not be concerned. It's totally dependent on the applications you use. Use htop to track down what's using the most ram and decide if it's not worth it or if there is some bug that makes it use more ram than it should. Unless you're hitting swap, I wouldn't worry at all about it | 23:42 |
| daftykins | JennyBlueBird: it'll get close to their maximum then either downclock or crash the game | 23:42 |
| jhutchins_wk | bin_bash: No, you should be using all of your RAM on boot. | 23:42 |
| bin_bash | jhutchins_wk, wat | 23:42 |
| jhutchins_wk | Yup. | 23:42 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, it brings down the card as it is | 23:42 |
| Tex_Nick | bin_bash : that's probably about what this box is using immediately after boot | 23:42 |
| bin_bash | jhutchins_wk, are you retarded | 23:43 |
| jrib | bin_bash: have you taken some time to read the links ubottu gave you about how ram is used on ilnux? | 23:43 |
| escott | bin_bash, do you leave the lights on when nobody is in the room? | 23:43 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, black screen, can't get it back without shutting comp down and letting it cool for a while | 23:43 |
| Ben64 | total used free shared buffers cached | 23:43 |
| Ben64 | Mem: 7985 7858 127 0 295 5146 | 23:43 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, power cycling the PSU dosn't do it either. I literally just have to wait for it to cool when it happens. | 23:43 |
| Ben64 | bin_bash: you don't need the attitude, jhutchins_wk is correct | 23:43 |
| bin_bash | ... | 23:43 |
| daftykins | JennyBlueBird: daym! | 23:44 |
| JennyBlueBird | daftykins, yea, I'm starting to think I need to try older drivers or something | 23:44 |
| escott | bin_bash, ram is like a light you cannot turn off. if its on you might as well put someone in the room and use it. | 23:44 |
| JennyBlueBird | but as I remember the last gen drivers were not exactly rock solid either | 23:44 |
| bin_bash | escott, sure, if I'm playing minecraft or compiling code | 23:45 |
| bin_bash | but at idle it shouldn't use much | 23:45 |
| Ben64 | no, all the time. read up on how linux uses memory | 23:45 |
| Ben64 | it is very well documented | 23:45 |
| JennyBlueBird | bin_bash, it caches harddrive access, check the +/- buffers line, it gives a better idea of how much is actually used | 23:45 |
| genii-around | JennyBlueBird: Are you using something like nvclock to control the fan? | 23:45 |
| KaiSforza | you guys are obviously misunderstanding WHICH used memory bin_bash is talking about. | 23:45 |
| JennyBlueBird | genii-around, no, this started before I even installed it | 23:46 |
| escott | bin_bash, i dont care what you are doing. you are spending money powering that ram. the kernel uses it because to not use it would be a waste. | 23:46 |
| JennyBlueBird | genii-around, and it's only in Heroes of Newerth :/ | 23:46 |
| JennyBlueBird | genii-around, all other games, even more intensive ones, work ok | 23:46 |
| JennyBlueBird | and turning graphics settings down doesn't resolve the issue | 23:46 |
| jhutchins_wk | KaiSforza: No, bin_bash doesn't understand memory management in linux. It's not like you get better MPG if you don't use the RAM. | 23:46 |
| JennyBlueBird | so I assume it is some combination of weirdo rendering code and bad drivers | 23:46 |
| MartynKeigher | hey guys...whats the quick way to enable ssh on a ubuntu desktop? | 23:46 |
| jrib | !ssh | MartynKeigher | 23:46 |
| ubottu | MartynKeigher: 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) | 23:46 |
| genii-around | JennyBlueBird: Ah, OK. Yeah, sounds just like some freak combination of app and driver or so | 23:47 |
| escott | bin_bash, that 5146 cached can be discarded at any time, but it speeds things up if you happen to hit something in the cache. what you want to ask is free+cached. if that is small you are running out of memory | 23:47 |
| zenloop | Hey guys, I have a quick question about repositories and ubuntu. I am using chef to install my machines and I have fixed the version numbers. I am using a ton of oneiric repositories (oneiric oeiric-{backports|updates} with components main restricted univers multivers, problem is that packages seem to no longer be available. It is like a new version has moved into main and the older version disappears. Is there a component for old | 23:48 |
| zenloop | releases? | 23:48 |
| krabador | if casper disables proprietary graphic drivers, how can i build a livecd with working ati drivers? | 23:48 |
| escott | bin_bash, ie the second line of free -m. ignore the first line entirely | 23:48 |
| KaiSforza | jhutchins_wk: sometimes people use /tmp as a ram disk. I do. it uses 4G on my system, so i sometimes i can't use 8G of ram in total, i only can use 4-5. your preconception on what ram usage should look like is just for ubuntu, not for every type of linux. Yes, ram caches and buffers, and that is okay, but the actual used ram shouldn't be full. | 23:48 |
| krabador | must i install properly ubuntu on a usb pendrive? | 23:48 |
| jrib | zenloop: that's how the repositories work, old versions aren't kept around in a component | 23:48 |
| bin_bash | escott, yes, I use conky to report free -m | 23:48 |
| k1l | bin_bash: did you know about: linuxatemyram.com ? | 23:49 |
| zenloop | @jrib: so is the only solution to host my own repository of ubuntu? | 23:49 |
| KaiSforza | bin_bash: also, 380M of ram used is not a lot. | 23:49 |
| bin_bash | KaiSforza, on boot it is | 23:49 |
| k1l | bin_bash: it explains what free displays and what is the sense of that | 23:49 |
| zenloop | @jrib: is there another repository I can reference? | 23:49 |
| jhutchins_wk | KaiSforza: I've been running Linux since about 1995, I've managed six different distributions professionally, and I've probably been working with computers since before bin_bash's parents were born. | 23:49 |
| Senjai | krabador: no, you should install it improperly | 23:49 |
| Senjai | xD | 23:49 |
| bin_bash | that seems doubtful | 23:50 |
| jhutchins_wk | I've written more documentation that he's read. | 23:50 |
| Tex_Nick | bin_bash : are you experiencing system problems that lead you to suspect memory problems? | 23:50 |
| === james is now known as Guest80549 | ||
| krabador | Senjai, perfect, how can i build a bootable live ubuntu with working ati driver inside? | 23:50 |
| bin_bash | Tex_Nick, not especially. Once over 2gb of RAM is being used though, the system slows down considerably | 23:50 |
| jhutchins_wk | bin_bash: I've played Gravity Wars (Asteroids) loaded onto a PDP1 from paper tape. Round CRT, no keyboard. | 23:51 |
| Senjai | jhutchins_wk: uhmm, stop with the appeal to ethos please. 'Credentials' dont mean anything | 23:51 |
| Peyam | Hi, How does outlook work on ubuntu? | 23:51 |
| Senjai | Peyam: it doesn't. Ubuntu doesn't use outlook. Outlook is a microsoft product | 23:51 |
| bin_bash | jhutchins_wk, that's great. One day, when my children ask me "What's a cool story?" I'll tell them all about you and then say "Now, kids. That's a cool story." | 23:51 |
| Senjai | bin_bash: dont poke at his ego anymore. It might pop and cause a tsunami | 23:52 |
| k1l | bin_bash: as long as there is no swap used that ram usage shouldnt slow the system dosn | 23:52 |
| bin_bash | LOL Senjai | 23:52 |
| k1l | *down | 23:52 |
| jrib | zenloop: oneiric-updates and oneiric-security are where you are going to be getting new versions. I believe the plain "oneiric" should not be touched. Having said that, you generally want to get things from -security and those versions *can* change | 23:52 |
| xangua | Peyam: outlook.com works well on any browser | 23:52 |
| Tex_Nick | bin_bash : that would be a cpu usage issue i would think ... again look at "system monitor" to see what process's are eating the cpu | 23:52 |
| dydzEz2__ | anyone here have a thinkpad x1 carbon | 23:52 |
| bin_bash | k1l, yeah I'm not real sure why. doesn't really matter though. cpu is fine. but RAM is high at that point | 23:52 |
| k1l | bin_bash: and i dont see the actual issue besides you dont like the technically correct answers | 23:53 |
| Peyam | xangua: hahah I can too go directly to gmail.com | 23:53 |
| Peyam | Senjai: I ment on wine | 23:53 |
| JennyBlueBird | bin_bash, does it swap ? | 23:53 |
| xangua | !appdb | Peyam | 23:53 |
| ubottu | Peyam: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help | 23:53 |
| bin_bash | JennyBlueBird, yeah I have swap on | 23:53 |
| jrib | zenloop: with your current strategy, how are you going to ensure security updates? | 23:53 |
| JennyBlueBird | bin_bash, I meant, does it actually start to swap a lot when you have high memory usage ? | 23:53 |
| bin_bash | JennyBlueBird, yea | 23:53 |
| Senjai | Peyam: you'd have to go to #winhq, this is an Ubuntu support channel, not a WINE support channel ;) | 23:53 |
| JennyBlueBird | bin_bash, yea ok, that's not just the buffers and cache then | 23:54 |
| JennyBlueBird | bin_bash, does it do this just sitting idle you say ? | 23:54 |
| JennyBlueBird | because if so then something in that system is leaking | 23:54 |
| bin_bash | JennyBlueBird, no, it usually doesn't go that high, but I do suspect that firefox is leaking | 23:54 |
| daftykins | FF is terrible for it | 23:54 |
| JennyBlueBird | bin_bash, heh, firefox is kinda infamous for it | 23:55 |
| bin_bash | JennyBlueBird, when using minecraft or other java applications, I expect high RAM usage because, well, java | 23:55 |
| bin_bash | it just seems like if I have 4gb it shouldn't slow | 23:55 |
| Peyam | Senjai: it is still an ubuntu issue. | 23:55 |
| k1l | bin_bash: that swapping is making it slow | 23:55 |
| JennyBlueBird | bin_bash, top will tell you what is using it | 23:55 |
| Senjai | Peyam: It is not an ubuntu issue | 23:55 |
| Senjai | Peyam: it is a wine issue. Ubuntu doesnt suppoort wine, Ubuntu supports what Ubuntu comes with | 23:56 |
| JennyBlueBird | bin_bash, running any plugins in firefox or just the vanilla browser ? | 23:56 |
| bin_bash | JennyBlueBird, script-blocking plugins and stuff like that. | 23:56 |
| k1l | bin_bash: and how many tabs? | 23:56 |
| bin_bash | k1l, never more than 10. | 23:56 |
| JennyBlueBird | bin_bash, well I dunno, just run top and check what is using it I guess | 23:56 |
| k1l | bin_bash: well look into top what is using the ram | 23:56 |
| Senjai | JennyBlueBird: htop ftw xD | 23:57 |
| bin_bash | ^ | 23:57 |
| Tex_Nick | bin_bash : sometimes plugin-container drags my system down BAD ... it;s something firefox uses ... i kill it and the system comes back up to norm ... you might keep an eye on it when system bogs | 23:57 |
| bin_bash | Tex_Nick, yeah usually i endup killing plugin-container | 23:57 |
| bin_bash | but sometimes I just hve to kill X and then restart it | 23:57 |
| JennyBlueBird | Senjai, htop ? is this some new fancy thing that will make me feel old for not knowing about it ? | 23:57 |
| Senjai | JennyBlueBird: its top on steriods, check it out with apt-get install htop | 23:58 |
| Senjai | JennyBlueBird: you won't regret it | 23:58 |
| bin_bash | htop is awesome | 23:58 |
| daftykins | bin_bash: try using a clean FF profile for a bit | 23:58 |
| bin_bash | it's colored | 23:58 |
| JennyBlueBird | ah yea, that is kinda neat | 23:58 |
| bin_bash | daftykins, that might be a good idea | 23:58 |
| JennyBlueBird | same hotkeys ? | 23:58 |
| Senjai | JennyBlueBird: ye | 23:58 |
| SirClueless | can anyone help debug my graphics driver? i'm trying to just ignore my hybrid graphics card and use my integrated one | 23:58 |
| Senjai | JennyBlueBird: also addds some others. | 23:58 |
| JennyBlueBird | oooooooh | 23:58 |
| JennyBlueBird | that mennu | 23:58 |

| Senjai | JennyBlueBird: Ikr | 23:58 |
| JennyBlueBird | ty :) | 23:58 |
| Senjai | JennyBlueBird: anytime | 23:59 |
| bin_bash | JennyBlueBird, lol | 23:59 |
| fbdystang | bin_bash: OK I am using a live cd to copy my hd over to another SATA RAID drive. When I mount the RAID drive, it does not allow me the option to write to it and that it is owned by root. How do I copy the HD over? | 23:59 |
| escott | fbdystang, what is your objective in copying it over | 23:59 |
| Senjai | fbdystang: sudo chown username /mount/point | 23:59 |
