[00:00] <Ben64> CrownWheel: do you have keyboard during grub?
[00:00] <kriskropd> SonikkuAmerica: I forewarned that I was not really following
[00:00] <SonikkuAmerica> True
[00:00] <lop> Ben64: unfortunately is the same, was it all written well up there ?
[00:00] <CrownWheel> Ben64, I don't get a grub (or boot:) prompt.  I do from the Live USB stick...
[00:00] <CrownWheel> (I mean a boot: prompt.  Close paren... )
[00:01] <kriskropd> Tiitus: okay, so your hardware works
[00:01] <Ben64> CrownWheel: well its installed now, so you must have grub (mash shift key to see it during boot)
[00:01] <kriskropd> Tiitus: you can chroot into your system and manipulate grub from there
[00:01] <CrownWheel> ah.  shift key.  thanks.
[00:02] <Tiitus> kriskropd: what should i search for a guide like that, to "chroot"
[00:02] <SonikkuAmerica> Ben64: Mash it? I didn't think we had to be so violent.
[00:02] <CrownWheel> Ben64, score.  Yes, kbd works in grub prompt.
[00:02] <CrownWheel> SonikkuAmerica, oh, it be mashed.
[00:02] <kriskropd> Tiitus: just google for "fixing grub via chroot" or something - i gtg
[00:02] <Tiitus> kriskropd: ty
[00:02] <SonikkuAmerica> CrownWheel: Well, now that SHIFT is a bunch of plastic shards... we now know that works at least.
[00:03] <SonikkuAmerica> *that IT works
[00:03] <CrownWheel> don't worry.  this keyboard has a redundant shift key over on the right.  I'll be ok.
[00:03] <SonikkuAmerica> :)
[00:03] <Ben64> CrownWheel: you could try booting into text mode from grub, see if you can type there
[00:03] <CrownWheel> So...now what?  "recovery mode"? I don't actually know what that laods.
[00:03] <Ben64> !text
[00:03] <maestrojed> I have been trying to get my audio working since I upgraded to Ubuntu12. I now can see my sound card as an option in System Settings. The Analog output works. The digital does not. It doesn't really let me select it. I ran pacmd list-sinks from the CLI and I see 3 sinks, none of which are my digital out. Any suggestions?
[00:04] <CrownWheel> a'ight...recoverizing.
[00:04] <SonikkuAmerica> maestrojed: Are you using Pulse Audio?
[00:04] <CrownWheel> Ben64, no dice.  KBD lights went out.   And...can't move in the menu.
[00:04] <maestrojed> SonikkuAmerica I am willing to use whatever, and I am not positive. But it seems like that, yes.
[00:05] <SuperGauntlet> I've set up a pptpd server and I can connect to it from an iphone, but I can't connect to anything outside my network. What might I be doing wrong?
[00:05] <SonikkuAmerica> maestrojed: Try [ sudo apt-get install pavucontrol ], then run it (type [ pavucontrol ]) and adjust the volume there.
[00:06] <CrownWheel> SuperGauntlet, is the using the correct gateway?
[00:06] <CrownWheel> *the server, that is.
[00:06] <SuperGauntlet> I have a feeling it's not routing properly through my gateway but i checked /etc/ppp/pptpd-options and the ms-dns appears to be the right one
[00:07] <SuperGauntlet> CrownWheel: I think that might be it but I don't know if I'm checking in the right place
[00:07] <maestrojed> SonikkuAmerica "pavucontrol is already the newest version." when I just run "pavucontrol" it acts like it needs another argument. But I also don't think the proper output is even selected right now.
[00:08] <Guest5366> question : I am cp a few gigs to a smb share though a gui cp and would like to do it from the konsole
[00:08] <lagreca> hi! okular is not displaying epub files properly. The text is overlapped. There are many pages is only one. How can it be fixed?
[00:08] <SuperGauntlet> CrownWheel: any ideas on where else to look?
[00:08] <SonikkuAmerica> maestrojed: maybe run [ alsamixer ]?
[00:09] <CrownWheel> SuperGauntlet, working on it.  not reported by ifconfig....
[00:09] <SuperGauntlet> okay
[00:09] <maestrojed> SonikkuAmerica I have, my sound card is an option but it still does't do the correct output
[00:09] <CrownWheel> huh.  route -n does it.
[00:09] <SonikkuAmerica> maestrojed: Where does it output to?
[00:10] <SuperGauntlet> huh
[00:10] <CrownWheel> SuperGauntlet, now, somebody with a better memory will have to tell you which /etc/network thing to edit to set it to where it should be.
[00:10] <SuperGauntlet> if I do route -n, it shows interface tun0 as using gateway 0.0.0.0
[00:11] <maestrojed> SonikkuAmerica In the options of output devices, there is my sound card analog and my sound card digital. The analog works, The digital one is listed but I can't really select it. alsamixer will work on analog, makes no mention of digital
[00:12] <SonikkuAmerica> maestrojed: And why do you need the digital audio if the analog works?
[00:12] <CrownWheel> SuperGauntlet, well, like I say, that sounds like an incorrect gateway...
[00:12] <SuperGauntlet> yeah i figured as much
[00:13] <SuperGauntlet> I just don't know how to edit the tun0 interface to use 192.168.1.1 as a gateway
[00:13] <SuperGauntlet> or rather
[00:13] <SuperGauntlet> my bad
[00:13] <SuperGauntlet> tun0 is openvpn
[00:13] <maestrojed> SonikkuAmerica Well the only thing this computer does is play music through a high quality home hifi system. Its a great sound card. If its not going to be digital that would just be a shame. Ditigal worked great in Ubuntu10 before I upgraded
[00:13] <SuperGauntlet> ppp0 is the interface i want to route to 192.168.1.1, it's currently using 0.0.0.0
[00:14] <lop> Ben64: if it didn work all i have left is to get live cd and access my drive to copy all the stuffon it , right ?
[00:14] <SonikkuAmerica> maestrojed: What kind of audio hardware? Ubuntu 12.04 might just be too new for it.
[00:15]  * MidnightSun99  Picture of my ex-girlfriend naked: http://imagetwist.com/9au1ada5n7nu
[00:15] <maestrojed> SonikkuAmerica Asus Xonar DX. That is my fear. Just sucks cause I asked all kinds of people and read posts that said it would work. I tried to make sure before hand :)
[00:15] <Tiiitus> Ben64: How come when I run parted magic to "erase disk" one of my ibm e326 servers can erase @ 60mb/s, where my other server can erase only at 2mb/s. they are identical in hardware configuration, not sure why this one is so much slower...
[00:15] <CrownWheel> SuperGauntlet, this dates from 2008, but might still apply: http://www.itworld.com/change-ip-address-linux-system-nlsunix-080612
[00:16] <Ben64> lop: yeah
[00:16] <CrownWheel> But I don't know whether the ppp and tun interfaces can be set the same way...
[00:16] <Ben64> Tiiitus: do you mean parted or partition magic
[00:16] <SuperGauntlet> CrownWheel: what exactly would I do?
[00:16] <maestrojed> How do you find out what drivers are being used on a sound card?
[00:17] <Tiiitus> Ben64: partition magic**
[00:17] <Tiiitus> actually wait it is parted magic
[00:17] <Tiiitus> they are both using 2x 73gb 10k rpm scsi drives
[00:17] <SonikkuAmerica> maestrojed: One sec...
[00:17] <Tiiitus> i used the same parted magic cd in both cases
[00:17] <Ben64> dunno what that is
[00:18] <Tiiitus> it's the only program that will get passed the hard drives if they have been locked by a corporation
[00:18] <lop> Ben64: thank ben, i won go around removing things with sudo anymore :) thats kinda stupid
[00:22] <SrPx> I've just installed ubuntu on a vps. I'm completely noob on unix, so, other than creating an user and using it (instead of root), is there any thing I must do to keep order? (:

[00:41] <Solarbaby> it is the last part that I don't understand the (32/0.0 errors)
[00:41] <Solarbaby> what does that mean?
[00:42] <Solarbaby> actually is displays (32/0/0 errors)

[00:47] <MoPac> Hi, sorry to keep trying on this question, but I really need some help on forcing apt-get to use a ppa for a package and NOT the universe repository
[00:49] <SonikkuAmerica> maestrojed: Are you still there/
[00:49] <SonikkuAmerica> ?
[00:50] <maestrojed> SonikkuAmerica I am, I am going nuclear and trying this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1681577
[00:52] <maestrojed> SonikkuAmerica I had confirmed I was using alsa1.0.24, this should get me to 1.0.25, maybe that will work better. I was about to reinstall the OS so I figured this couldn't hurt
[00:53] <SonikkuAmerica> Give it a shot I guess?
[00:53] <maestrojed> its running :)
[00:55] <hal> I'm really having a problem with lightdm.conf, when I create the setting, session-setup-script=sudo -Hnu "$USER" mount-encfs -u    This prevents me from logging after reboot. It shows me the greeter and the login box, I can enter my password, but then it shows me it again.  Can anyone help please?
[00:57] <hal> how can I troubleshoot this?
[01:09] <SuperGauntlet_> okay, wtf
[01:09] <Sashmo> Might be a non regualr question, but if I use full disk encryption, will deamons still run in the background when the computer is booted?  Or does it need to wait till I put in my passphrase to use the machine?
[01:09] <SuperGauntlet_> if I setup my router to forward port 8080 to 22 and try to ssh into my machine with my WAN ip and the -p 8080 option
[01:09] <SuperGauntlet_> it works under linux but not with cygwin/putty/winscp
[01:09] <SuperGauntlet_> WTF?
[01:10] <SuperGauntlet_> it's the EXACT same command
[01:10] <SuperGauntlet_> ssh x.x.x.x -p 8080
[01:10] <SuperGauntlet_> with cygwin it hangs and does nothing, but with a linux vm it works fine
[01:11] <SuperGauntlet_> Any ideas what it might be?
[01:11] <OerHeks> great, not a linux issue.
[01:11] <SuperGauntlet_> indeed, lol
[01:12] <SuperGauntlet_> I'm just wondering what the hell is up with it if it works with what is (ostenibly) the same program
[01:13] <DarkTan> how does one install a .deb file when archive manager takes control on a double click?

[01:14] <SuperGauntlet_> lol
[01:15] <ChogyDan> why not run an ssh native to windows, instead of through cygwin?
[01:15] <SuperGauntlet_> there's an ssh native to windows?
[01:15] <SuperGauntlet_> you mean like putty?
[01:16] <SuperGauntlet_> oh for fucks sake you have to be kidding me
[01:16] <SuperGauntlet_> i am pants-on-head retarded
[01:16] <ChogyDan> yeah, I guess.  I mean, you are asking a windows question.  Sorry.
[01:16] <SuperGauntlet_> it was my AV blocking it

[01:19] <wombledom> is it possible to reset the battery with a command?
[01:19] <wombledom> say if the chip in the battery has incorrect information and reports less battery life than it actually has?
[01:21] <{0}ranj3> wombledom: I'm not sure what you mean.  Are you implying that your battery is giving you false information?
[01:22] <wombledom> I switched out the cells but it still dies after 2 minutes on a full charge
[01:22] <DarkTan> ok, aftering installing ndiswrapper from here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/powerpc/ndiswrapper-common/1.50-1ubuntu1 and attempting to run, i get an error

[01:26] <wombledom> it might be i2c

[01:51] <psusi> kill PID
[01:51] <Cyclohexane> how do i find it though
[01:51] <psusi> or kill -9 PID if it doesn't want to die
[01:52] <psusi> use top :)
[01:52] <Cyclohexane> and what would i grep to get the top one?
[01:52] <psusi> or htop is even nicer
[01:52] <RobbyF> I use htop then just highlight it then F9 to kill
[01:53] <RoyOnWheels> know what -a does? code: until [ -a /dev/video0 ] ; do

[01:58] <danny> Also where I can find a timeline of contributions and maintenance?
[01:58] <danny> unp
[01:59] <neirpyc> sam113101, On the OS X side there is an option to reverse the setting so when I hit F10, it acts as F10 and not mute.
[02:00] <danny> Anyone ever heard of unp ?
[02:00] <sam113101> danny: no, what is it?

[02:04] <paul_> So, I accidentally  installed some package that completely screwed up my computer. In short: I believe I installed kdei386(?), but my computer has an amd processor.
[02:05] <paul_> Now I boot up and all I see is a orange "*"
[02:05] <MoPac> paul_: at what point does the screen go orange?
[02:05] <paul_> MoPac, It's not the whole screen.
[02:05] <MoPac> oh, an orange asterisk
[02:05] <MoPac> is it a command line?
[02:06] <paul_> MoPac, Nope, I can't control anything
[02:06] <paul_> MoPac, I just hit the keyboard and the previous screen came back. "Checking Battery State... [OK]" _
[02:07] <paul_> MoPac, Forever, and ever..
[02:07] <FranciscoD> hi! Could someone please tell me how I could make a usb pen drive on a fedora system?
[02:07] <MoPac> paul_: and at what point in the boot does this happen?
[02:07] <FranciscoD> I've downloaded the ubuntu desktop live iso
[02:07] <FranciscoD> and need to install it on my netbook using a pen drive
[02:07] <FranciscoD> would direct dd work?
[02:07] <MoPac> FranciscoD: unetbootin?
[02:08] <MoPac> !find unetbootin
[02:08] <FranciscoD> MoPac: ah, is that the only way? I had assumed a direct dd would work
[02:08] <MoPac> FranciscoD: I actually prefer running Yumi in wine for making my USBs
[02:08] <FranciscoD> yumi?
[02:08] <Akiva-Mobile> how do I know my partition resizing is working? I am installing this darn ubuntu in hebrew, and I can barely speak it myself, and so its concerning me why its taking 20 minutes to resize the windows partition to install ubuntu.
[02:08] <Akiva-Mobile> is this normal?
[02:09] <paul_> MoPac, It's really the only thing that shows up in a normal boot.
[02:09] <MoPac> FranciscoD: I don't think just having a .iso file on a USB is the same thing as putting a CD or DVD in. You need software to make the USB bootable
[02:09] <FranciscoD> MoPac: well, fedora isos are hybrid
[02:09] <MoPac> paul_: So it shows up immediately after your bios, with no Ubuntu stuff in between?
[02:09] <FranciscoD> so you can just dd them to the pen drive, and they'll boot
[02:09] <paul_> MoPac, Yeah
[02:09] <MoPac> FranciscoD: Maybe that's true, then.  My only experience is with making multi-boot USBs, so maybe I over-complicate
[02:09] <|Xenom|> Hi all, I am looking for a start-to-finish guide for server clustering and virtualization. I am slightly above novice (compared to most of the experts in here), any help is greatly appreciated (nothing useful was found on Google..)
[02:10] <MoPac> paul_: Do you have a live USB of Ubuntu you can boot from?
[02:10] <FranciscoD> MoPac: I'll try unetbootin and see if it works. Thanks
[02:10] <Akiva-Mobile> in the terminal, I don't see any particularly important errors, and it does seem to still be running...
[02:10] <paul_> MoPac, I used Wubi :(
[02:11] <Akiva-Mobile> paul_: yucky slow
[02:11] <paul_> Akiva-Mobile, What's wrong with wubi?
[02:12] <wombledom> hey is it possible to replace android on a phone with ubuntu?
[02:12] <MoPac> paul_: You could easily make a live USB on whatever computer you're using now
[02:12] <paul_> MoPac, I don't have a usb stick with me
[02:12] <Akiva-Mobile> paul_: The main drawback is that you install ubuntu on a ntfs filesystem, the same one used by windows.
[02:12] <paul_> Akiva-Mobile, Is that slower?
[02:12] <MoPac> paul_: That would be my advice: get a live system, USB or CD, boot from that, and then repair in it
[02:12] <Akiva-Mobile> paul_: Generally, yes.
[02:12] <e-coffee> how do you rat proof a linux box
[02:13] <MoPac> paul_: Ahh wait, so you're normally trying to run Ubuntu from within Windows?
[02:13] <paul_> MoPac, Not within, it's installed on the same hard drive
[02:13] <Akiva-Mobile> paul_: EXT4 is generally the speediest of the filesystems available for linux at the moment. Hopefully, BTRFS might catch up
[02:13] <|Xenom|> wombledom, Ubuntu touch is available for a small number of devices, such as the Samsung Galaxy Nexus... however, it is a developer build..
[02:13] <Akiva-Mobile> btrfs is similar I hear to zfs.
[02:13] <wombledom> okay
[02:13] <paul_> Akiva-Mobile, How much of a difference does it make?
[02:13] <MoPac> paul_: I don't know if running the Wubi installer again has a repair mode?
[02:14] <Akiva-Mobile> paul_: It depends how rough of shape your ntfs file system is in.
[02:14] <wombledom> I don't care if it doesn't have phone features, I want to use my old phone as a server, but I do have debian running side-by-side with android right now so that's fine for now
[02:14] <paul_> MoPac, I'll try it
[02:14] <Akiva-Mobile> to me, it feels around 40 percent slower with some operations.
[02:16] <FranciscoD> MoPac: well, unetbootin on fedora doesn't seem to work
[02:16] <FranciscoD> not on fedora at leasat
[02:17] <FranciscoD> the "drive" drop down is empty
[02:17] <m8pp1ey> good evening; has anyone used playonlinux to play windws version of fallout new vegas??
[02:17] <MoPac> paul_: If there's no repair mode with your current installer, and you can't boot the OS, then you need to mount your Ubuntu filesystem somehow to repair it.  The easiest way to do this is to use a live CD/USB .  From there, you can bind actions to happen in your normal filesystem (an example is http://askubuntu.com/questions/28099/how-to-restore-a-system-after-accidentally-removing-all-kernels )
[02:18] <MoPac> paul_: Another option that you might have is to try to mount your Ubuntu filesystem partition in Windows using an ext2 driver like ext2fsd.  If your linux filesystem is ext2, then it can read and write.  With ext3 it can read and force write.  I'm not sure what the score is with ext4 or btrfs
[02:19] <paul_> MoPac, How do I mount it?
[02:19] <paul_> MoPac, I think I just want to grab some files off of it and then install using a live usb.
[02:20] <MoPac> paul_: you need to install ext2fsd in windows and follow its instructions
[02:20] <MoPac> paul_: your Ubuntu install isn't LUKS-encrypted, is it?
[02:21] <paul_> MoPac, I didn't encrypt anything
[02:21] <boole> does Ubuntu have a GUI frontend to grub?
[02:25] <tunnelguy> boole, like when you boot up? mine does
[02:25] <e-coffee> Hi how do you install steam in 12.10?
[02:25] <boole> tunnelguy: I meant to configure it
[02:25] <MoPac> boole: Thttps://encrypted.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=grub+gui
[02:25] <tunnelguy> boole as far as i know nope
[02:26] <tunnelguy> e-coffee just download it from the website
[02:26] <tunnelguy> e-coffee its just a handy .deb file you double click
[02:26] <e-coffee> kk ty :)
[02:27] <boole> thanks MoPac and tunnelguy
[02:28] <tunnelguy> MoPac whats with the encrypted.google.com i have never seen that before
[02:28] <paul_> Does anybody know where I can find the wubi partition?
[02:29] <bcbc2> paul_: it's not a partition - it's a file /ubuntu/disks/root.disk
[02:29] <MoPac> tunnelguy: google via https
[02:29] <MoPac> tunnelguy: probably a result of https everywhere in firefox
[02:29] <Tiitus> Hey guys is it possible to run windows server 2008 and then install ubuntu or fedora afterwards without having major anticipated problems
[02:30] <MoPac> paul_: bcbc2: This is what I was confused about, since it's a wubi installation.  Has he actually created a partition, or is the whole thing just in a big file within Windows, like with a virtual machine?
[02:30] <umib0zu> Tiitus what do you mean?
[02:30] <MoPac> Tiitus: I dunno about WS2008, but dual boot works for a lot of people, including me
[02:31] <bcbc2> MoPac: paul_: the partition is virtual, a loop device - Ubuntu runs natively
[02:31] <MoPac> !dualboot | Tiitus
[02:31] <Tiitus> umib0zu: I did not set up partitions, ive got 2 73gb ssci's running though, thought if i just tried to instsall ubuntu directly i'd have issues
[02:31] <MoPac> bcbc2: over my head, then
[02:31] <Tiitus> thanks for the info
[02:31] <bcbc2> paul_: what are you trying to do?
[02:32] <MoPac> bcbc2: paul_ is trying to recover an unbootable Ubuntu installation after he installed some kind of kde
[02:32] <wilee-nilee> bcbc2, It is nice to see you here I direct people here at times to the UF for help on issues on wubi. :)
[02:32] <bcbc2> hey wilee-nilee :)
[02:32] <MoPac> bcbc2: he can't get past boot; gets only an orange asterisk. So proximately what I'm trying to help him do is mount that filesystem somehow so he can try to repair it
[02:33] <MoPac> bcbc2: I've suggested putting ext2fsd on Windows and seeing if he can mount the file or partition... he doesn't have a live CD/DVD/USB handy with Linux on it
[02:33] <paul_> bcbc2, I fucked it up somehow, I thought it might be because of a package I installed but then I read that hard shutting it down (whatever that term is) could ruin the system. I think that might be what happened
[02:34] <asdfkds> Would anyone mind helping me out with something?
[02:34] <bazhang> paul_, no cursing here
[02:34] <asdfkds> I somehow disabled the unity interface
[02:34] <asdfkds> The taskbar is gone
[02:34] <bazhang> asdfkds, ask an actual question with details
[02:34] <bcbc2> paul_: I'd start by running chkdsk /f from windows. That's the host filesystem and it rules out or corrects corruption due to hard shutdown
[02:34] <asdfkds> I did this while selecting an option in compiz... How would I re enable it?
[02:35] <bcbc2> paul_: after that, if you still have issues, you might have to fsck the root.disk, but that requires a CD/USB
[02:35] <paul_> bazhang, sorry :(
[02:35] <asdfkds> The unity interface, the taskbar, all that business. How do I re enable it?
[02:36] <paul_> bcbc2, I'm just going to grab files and delete the install.
[02:36] <asdfkds> bazhang, would you happen to know anything about compiz disabling taskbars or anything? or how to re enable them?
[02:36] <bazhang> asdfkds, this was after checking something in ccsm?
[02:36] <bcbc2> paul_: I've used ext2read to get readonly access to the root.disk from windows: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2read/files/
[02:36] <asdfkds> Yes.
[02:36] <MoPac> asdfkds: do you have the ccsm application?
[02:36] <asdfkds> Unchecking precisely. It said something about disabling nautlius...something something. And yes I do
[02:37] <MoPac> asdfkds: So you should be able to start ccsm, then click on Unity and re-check it from inside the plugin screen
[02:37] <bazhang> asdfkds, why not launch ccsm and uncheck them one by one, unless you can remember which exact feature you enabled
[02:37] <asdfkds> It's actually something I UN checked. In a pop up.
[02:42] <paul_> bcbc2, thanks for the link to that program, worked well! Off to find a flash drive!
[02:42] <bcbc2> paul_: great!
[02:43] <MoPac> bcbc2: You wouldn't happen to have any expertise with apt-preferences, would you?
[02:43] <bcbc2> MoPac: nope
[02:44] <MoPac> Sigh.  Dying to figure out how to increase a repository's priority and leave the universe version lower
[02:45] <bcbc2> MoPac: don't you just make the version higher in the ppa?
[02:46] <MoPac> bcbc2: it's a "lower" version than the universe one, so apt-get is obsessed with using the universe version
[02:46] <Tiitus> guys how come it's so freaking complicated to get a live usb to work for god sakes, ive tried 3 different programs and nothing seems to work, I'm trying to get fedora going but my servers have cd rom only, can't use dvds and it seeems usb is failing too
[02:46] <paul_> How would I do a network install?
[02:47] <Tiitus> fedora is 900mb and won't fit on a cd, so i need someone to help me mount a live usb correctly bcause whatever im doing is clearly not working - thank you
[02:48] <wilee-nilee> Tiitus, have you tried the fedora usb loader download https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB
[02:48] <ChogyDan> Tiitus: are there any errors?
[02:49] <Tiitus> no errors, it just won't load from the usb even when it's chosen as the first boot
[02:49] <Tiitus> loops in the bios ( no o/s installed yet)
[02:49] <Tiitus> ill try that link first, thanks
[02:49] <wilee-nilee> Tiitus, There is a outside the bios bot from menu are you familiar with getting there?
[02:49] <wilee-nilee> *boot
[02:49] <debiantoruser> GreetingS!
[02:50] <Tiitus> theres 2 bios' ive been in
[02:50] <Tiitus> it's an e326 ibm 8848 that im using
[02:50] <wilee-nilee> Tiitus, Read my question again this has nothing to do with the bios.
[02:50] <debiantoruser> Is there easy way, to get /var/mail dir (of sendmail) via web, e.g. like squirellmail, but without any imap and pop3 servers?
[02:51] <DarkDAddyT> ok peeps. i need some help trying to get ubuntu to install on my win7 machine. it wont work if i do a direct download from the site and use the windows installer, ive tried pendrive's usb program and ive tried ISOtoUSB. all to no avail
[02:51] <bcbc2> MoPac: sorry can't help. I've pinned packages using synaptic before, but it doesn't apply to apt-get
[02:52] <paul_> DarkDAddyT, Have you configured your boot sequence in the bios. Make sure your pen drive shows up as the first device.
[02:52] <debiantoruser> Also, is there any packages like webmin?
[02:52] <Tiitus> wilee-nilee: not quite sure how to get there i guess, let me try the loader first i'll see if that works
[02:52] <DarkDAddyT> paul: of course
[02:52] <wilee-nilee> Tiitus, On computers there is a boot from menu not in the bios reached with a key or set of key prompts at powering on. Mine is f12, yours may be that or f9 or esc or a different key.
[02:52] <bazhang> !ebox | debiantoruser
[02:52] <DarkDAddyT> every time i build a new machine i set it for usb then cd then hdd
[02:53] <Tiitus> wilee-nilee: There's the f1 menu, f12 and also the DEL menu, ive been using the DEL menu to select boot order
[02:53] <wilee-nilee> Tiitus, and that is the bios correct?
[02:53] <Tiitus> wilee-nilee: f1 menu has nothing i can change, f12 has nothing to do with boot
[02:54] <DarkDAddyT> paul: at the post, it tells me error: no configuration file found. no default or ui directive found
[02:54] <Tiitus> wilee-nilee: yes
[02:54] <debiantoruser> ubottu, only zentyal? why webmin doesn't submitted?
[02:55] <debiantoruser> bazhang,  only zentyal? why webmin doesn't submitted?
[02:55] <bazhang> !webmin | debiantoruser
[02:55] <wilee-nilee> Tiitus, Cool, we want to bypass the bios, your computer has a boot from menu that can be prompted with the right key or keys pressed at powering on, you just have to find what it is. I will google your computer model to find out if you like.
[02:56] <Tiitus> wilee-nilee: ok, so yeah its ibm e326 "8848" running 2xamd248 and 73gb 10k rpm scsi's
[03:00] <nell> Happy birthday ~~~ William Gibson ~~~
[03:01] <Trickster_> helo ?! helo ? helo ?
[03:01] <debiantoruser> bazhang,  any thing else like webmin?
[03:02] <Trickster_> MonitorX
[03:02] <Trickster_> http://www.monitorix.org/
[03:02] <Trickster_> check it debiantoruser
[03:04] <ants> Are there any ways to install Oracle 11g on my Ubuntu 12.04 machine
[03:04] <wilee-nilee> Tiitus, I can't seem to find a link. When I get a new computer I just power on and starting with one end of the f keys just sweep left or to the right to see which one is the key for the menu, if I can't find it on the web.  I think the problem with using the bios is fast boot setups which don't see cd's or usb at times.
[03:05] <Tiitus> wilee-nilee: ok, i appreciate you trying, ill see what i can do !
[03:05] <ants> Tiitus, to use your USB. You need to go to your BIOS settings and change the First device to USB-FDD.
[03:05] <ants> Tiitus, to use your USB. You need to go to your BIOS settings and change the First device to USB-FDD.
[03:05] <wilee-nilee> ants, he already has
[03:06] <Tiitus> ants: I think my device might be bugged out also
[03:06] <Tiitus> im going to buy one brand new tomorrow
[03:06] <Tiitus> they're 5$
[03:07] <wilee-nilee> Tiitus, good luck I have to get back to writing a paper.
[03:07] <Tiitus> wilee-nilee: alright take care have a good night !
[03:07] <Tiitus> wilee-nilee: thanks for the help
[03:08] <Tiitus> ants: have you ever done virtualization with slightly older servers ?
[03:08] <ants> Tiitus: Nope, I haven't.
[03:14] <|Xenom|> Hi all, I am looking for a start-to-finish guide for server clustering and virtualization. I am slightly above novice (compared to most of the experts in here), any help is greatly appreciated (nothing useful was found on Google..)

[03:29] <Akiva-Mobile> just installed ubuntu on a friends computer; its going to be their first time using it. How do I know if I have the right driver installed?
[03:29] <Akiva-Mobile> its an amd machine, and I can't seem to figure out if it should have the ati binary drivers or not
[03:30] <Akiva-Mobile> or if it even does!
[03:30] <phong_> anyone know Code128 Auto?
[03:31] <phong_> if you know Code 128 Auto algorithem please let me know thanks.
[03:31] <simula> Akiva-Mobile ... are you having any problems with your graphics?
[03:31] <Akiva-Mobile> simula: mmm no?
[03:32] <Akiva-Mobile> simula: I havent put it under a stress test yet
[03:32] <phong_> does anyone know Code 128 Auto ?

[03:37] <robertzaccour> And how do I add and remove stuff from the home lens?
[03:38] <guest-SxstlY> .i.
[03:41] <robertzaccour> In the Unity dash where it says home, how do I add and remove stuff?
[03:41] <RobbyF> right click and unlock from launcher
[03:42] <paul_> Yo! I didn't know unetbootin could install the files to the hard drive and then install linux w/ out a usb stick! That's awesome!
[03:45] <robertzaccour> Well the home part of the Unity dash seems pretty useless because I can't modify its contents. How do I remove it?
[03:46] <robertzaccour> paul_: I thought a usb was required. That or an SD card.
[03:46] <holstein> robertzaccour: unity is not something that is overly customizable.. did you literaly just install? maybe just give it a few days and see what you want/need
[03:47] <paul_> robertzaccour, Nope! If you want to install it on the same system you can just install it to your hard drive, boot into unetbootin when you restart. So cool!
[03:48] <derp> bonne nuit / good night
[03:49] <TechieOfficer> I had back luck with saving the links to recomended books I was given the other day. Does anyone here know of any good books for learning ins and outs of the Terminal (Linux Administration)?
[03:49] <holstein> TechieOfficer: this channel is logged
[03:50] <TechieOfficer> holstein: I put it so nothing gets saved on this computer.
[03:50] <twist3d> TechieOfficer, http://www.tldp.org/LDP/sag/html/index.html
[03:51] <holstein> TechieOfficer: this channel is logged, and gets "saved"... so you can recall the conversation you had
[03:51] <litropy> If I put my Ubuntu box between my modem and my router (2 NICs), is it any use to try and use HD caching for better performance? Seems like I can't effectively stream Netflix and watch Youtube at the same time, even though I have bandwidth to burn. I've tried QOS within the router, and it didn't do much.
[03:52] <holstein> TechieOfficer: i just started using it.. next time you want to do anything, try and do it in the terminal.. simple file manipulation. irc chat.. downloading a file.. whatever
[03:53] <twist3d> litropy, can you explain that a little further... I doubt the router is adding that much overhead when repackaging the frames to cause any significant delay.  What type of router?
[03:53] <holstein> litropy: i would do more testing.. youtube is using flash. could have nothing to do with your networking or speeds
[03:56] <TechieOfficer> holstein: I can do basic things, but researching each thing I do takes longer than reading a full guide.
[03:57] <litropy> twist3d, holstein, it's a D-Link DIR-655. I can watch both at the same time, it's just slow. I was just using that as an example. Essentially, Netflix + anything = slowness, or, for instance, when I'm downloading ubuntu via torrent, the network just clogs up. Netflix trickles, so does the torrent.
[03:57] <holstein> TechieOfficer: there are plenty of "guides".. depending on what you are doing, none should go out of date too fast. still, i would suggest learning by doing.

[04:03] <L8D> Hello! I need some help! My x-cursor-theme from /etc/alternatives vanished!
[04:03] <L8D> 'update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for x-cursor-theme'
[04:03] <L8D> I tried reinstalling x11-apps. But that didn't help...
[04:04] <sergy> so basicly I'm trying to restore my default behavior after I messed up with another windows manager
[04:04] <holstein> L8D: i would test as another user, and go from there
[04:04] <holstein> sergy: you have the ubuntu-desktop metapackage installed?
[04:05] <L8D> What do you mean? That wouldn't help. It's system-wide package/file.
[04:05] <sergy> let me check
[04:05] <tripelb> re nexus 7 to have it seen by 12.04 but: the ubuntu maching is isolated from the internet so i have to download what is needed and bring it to it.
[04:05] <L8D> It's a*
[04:05] <holstein> L8D: cool.. wait patiently for another volunteer then.. .cheers!
[04:06] <sergy> holstein: yes I do
[04:06] <twist3d> sergy, do you have backups?
[04:07] <L8D> My problem is, the file '/etc/alternatives/x-cursor-theme' has been deleted.
[04:07] <twist3d> L8D, do you have backups?
[04:07] <L8D> And I have no idea how to recover it...
[04:07] <holstein> L8D: live cd? another install?
[04:07] <L8D> twist3d: Unfortunately, no.
[04:07] <sergy> twist3d: No But I can try
[04:07] <L8D> This is an almost fresh install
[04:07] <sergy> Something
[04:07] <twist3d> L8D, before you begin troubleshooting.... conduct a backup now
[04:07] <MoPac> sergy: What is the bad behavior that you're seeing?
[04:07] <L8D> twist3d: I am
[04:08] <holstein> L8D: im suggesting to try and recover the file from a live CD, or another install
[04:08] <L8D> But, can you upload your /etc/alternatives/x-cursor-theme if you're running ubuntu/debian?
[04:08] <twist3d> L8D, did you chck /var/log/ for any related log files that may give you some insight?
[04:08] <L8D> That would save me a lot of time...
[04:09] <L8D> twist3d: Couldn
[04:09] <L8D> Couldn't find anything
[04:09] <holstein> sergy: you tried something like sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm ?
[04:09] <sergy> MoPac: Ok after I installed the new windows manager which is didn't work corectly It's abviously starting automaticly so I don't get starting screen of lightdm
[04:10] <sergy> holstein: Should I try?
[04:10] <holstein> L8D: i dont have that file
[04:10] <L8D> Wat?
[04:10] <holstein> sergy: if you havent, that should set lightdm back
[04:10] <L8D> try `cat /etc/alternatives/x-cursor-theme`
[04:10] <twist3d> L8D,  after installing the theme did you ....  sudo update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme
[04:10] <Fsmv> I'm having a problem where my internal speakers work but not my headphones. I'm trying to install alsa-hda-dkms from the alsa-daily ppa but it says the 3.7.0-7 kernel is unsupported. Any idea what kernel I should update to?
[04:11] <holstein> L8D: when i look in /etc/alternatives i have no "x-cursor-theme" there
[04:11] <sergy> hostein Let me try ..
[04:11] <Fsmv> Or alternatively, other ideas on fixing the sound issue.
[04:11] <L8D> twist3d: That's when I first found out. And then, later when updating, I came to it as a problem.
[04:11] <holstein> Fsmv: i would try a newer kernel from a live CD.. then you dont "Break" anything testing
[04:11] <litropy> twist3d, it's an odd setup. Two DIR-655s. I'm in a huge house, so I have a modem connected to a DIR-655#1 router, and since the DIR-655#2's software doesn't support wireless repeating, and can't be flashed with, for instance, dd-wrt, I've got an ubuntu box receiving my DIR-655#1's wireless signal, and then it sends the DIR-655#2.
[04:12] <twist3d> L8D, did you reboot prior to running the command..  have you tried re-downloading and re-installing the theme?
[04:12] <L8D> holstein: Can you even run the code: "sudo update-alternatives --config x-cursor-theme"?
[04:13] <Fsmv> holstein: Can I just install newer kernels while on a live CD? Don't you have to restart and lose everything in the RAM for that?
[04:13] <L8D> twist3d: Yes I have...But so far, it doesn't seem like the theme caused the probelm. X-cursor-theme is a standard in debian and ubuntu
[04:13] <twist3d> litropy, are you using ipv4/ipv6 packet kernel forwarding or are you manually routing all traffic to the second router
[04:14] <holstein> Fsmv: no, but you should find live CD's with different kernels.. i try older ones too
[04:14] <txt2311> Where can I get older Ubuntu isos?
[04:14] <L8D> Okay, I'm grabbing a copy from a Live CD...
[04:15] <holstein> txt2311: what are you looking for? i usually just search for them by name...
[04:16] <txt2311> holstein: I want to get all older ISO of Ubuntu. We are creating a powerpoint of Ubuntu's timeline for class.
[04:16] <txt2311> I was gonna make screenshots of progress of Ubuntu
[04:17] <litropy> twist3d, I just used the GUI, went into Network > Wired > IPv4 Settings > Method: Shared to other computers. IPV6 is set to automatic.
[04:17] <holstein> txt2311: i just search "download ubuntu 8.04" or whatever.. usually there are archives
[04:18] <txt2311> holstein: Ok. Thanks
[04:18] <twist3d> litropy, so you actually sharing your ubuntu's box's internet connection with router #2 , which then forwards all traffic on router #2's network through the ubuntu box's internet connection to router #1?
[04:18] <litropy> twist3d, correct.
[04:19] <holstein> txt2311: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/edgy/ for example
[04:20] <twist3d> litropy, oh my.  Ok. so, go to your ubuntu's box and run a speedtest at speedtest.net
[04:23] <litropy> twist3d, 12down/5up.
[04:23] <sergy> holstein: no sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm didnt work now it shows: starting web server apache2  [OK] then blank line and [OK] and cursor goes under second [OK]
[04:24] <litropy> twist3d, same for this box I'm on now, connected to RT#2
[04:24] <twist3d> ok so what your doing is you are routing all traffic across a wireless nick on your ubuntu box.  Your internet connection does not matter if you are processing a large amount of data across a NIC that cannot handle the traffic.
[04:24] <sergy> holstein: And it frezes :|
[04:24] <twist3d> litropy, regardless of what you pay for, router 2 will never get any more bandwidth than the ubuntu box can support
[04:25] <holstein> sergy: how did it not work? did it offer to reconfigure the login manager? can you get into x?
[04:25] <twist3d> if you do choose to run in this configuration, you need to run cable from your ubuntu box to router 1 and then cable from your ubuntu box to router 2.  You can check the performance increase by running a cable from your ubuntu box to router 1 and re run the speed test
[04:26] <twist3d> litropy, I have seen dramatic speed increases when its going across a wire.  If you do not want to run cable there are other alternatives like adapters that route traffic across your home's power connection.  You can find them online easily.
[04:26] <sergy> holstein: It says: Unable to resolve host not_vanila
[04:26] <litropy> twist3d, I was just streaming vino-server at 1.5 megabytes (not bits) /sec.
[04:26] <litropy> twist3d, I hear ya though.
[04:26] <holstein> sergy: it?
[04:27] <sergy> holstein: yes
[04:27] <sergy> holstein: strange
[04:27] <holstein> sergy: what is it? when you ask for the reonfiguration of the login manager? when you are logging in? when?
[04:28] <twist3d> litropy, it routes alot more than just video, remember every packet it receives, normally two more are transmitted.  1.5mb isnt that much when it comes to video, hence the industry's move away from T-1 for commercial circuits.  If want you want to see everything thats actually being passed... sudo tcpdump -i INTERFACE
[04:28] <pablo_> hi
[04:28] <pablo_> all
[04:28] <twist3d> litropy, my cell phone gets 50mb...
[04:28] <pablo_> how may I know the type of my video card?
[04:29] <pablo_> ./cat /proc/....?
[04:29] <holstein> pablo_: lspci
[04:29] <sergy> holstein: yes when I logged in of course by my username
[04:29] <sergy> holstein: don't get ur question
[04:30] <holstein> sergy: you say "it" and i dont know what "it" is..
[04:30] <holstein> sergy: try as another user
[04:30] <sergy> holstein: ok
[04:32] <pablo_> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Atom Processor D2xxx/N2xxx Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
[04:32] <pablo_> 	Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device 100b
[04:32] <holstein> !paste | pablo_
[04:33] <pablo_> ok thanks for information
[04:33] <litropy> twist3d, T-1 runs 1.5 megaBITS per second. I was streaming vino-server at 1.5 megaBYTES/sec, or 12 megabits/sec.
[04:35] <pablo_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5624389/
[04:35] <sergy> holstein: ok I logged in as root on tty2 and exec dpkg-reconfigure lightdm - no output then lightdm - failed to use bus name org.freedesktop.DisplayManager, do you have appropriete permittion? but I m root !
[04:37] <holstein> sergy: you shouldnt be..
[04:37] <twist3d> litropy, I apologize for the confusion.  Your connection is slow even at 12 mbps.  Trying a physical connection to Ubuntu Box and see if the performance is increased.
[04:37] <sergy> holstein: Ok im creating another user
[04:37] <holstein> sergy: im not sure what all you have changed about your system, but you seem to be far from the stock ubuntu.. youmight consider backing up data and reinstalling. sometimes that can be faster than dealing with issues like that
[04:38] <holstein> sergy: if you have no issues as another user, then you know its just an issue with your user config
[04:38] <twist3d> litropy, once again just an opinion.
[04:38] <sergy> holstein: ok now I get what you mean, thanks
[04:39] <holstein> sergy: good luck!.. i must run...
[04:41] <sergy> holstein: -_^
[04:52] <Firespore> Would anyone know why my wifi speed is significantly slower than normal on ubuntu?
[04:52] <Firespore> My internet is 36/6 and right now it's running 2/.05
[04:55] <Laogeodritt> Firespore, have you tested with other computers (wi-fi and wired)? Have you eliminated other possible causes (position/antenna orientations, interference, wi-fi adapter failing, AP failing, problem upstream from your modem i.e. due to your ISP)?
[04:56] <Firespore> Laogeodritt, yes..yes..yes..yes..yes..yes...
[04:56] <Firespore> It's the ubuntu 12.04 driver.
[04:56] <Firespore> Have had this happen before, dont remember what i did to it..
[04:59] <Laogeodritt> Firespore: Ahh. I probably can't help for that kind of issue unless it's easily discoverable on Google. =[ But might be useful to let us know what your wlan adapter is and which driver it's using.
[05:08] <boogie_man> hello i'm new to linux. i tried to execute my c++ programs through code blocks IDE in linux, but the output is always "permission denied". can someone suggest a way out of this??  :'(
[05:27] <ZeloZelos> is there any tricks to fixing the dc power jack that the area that it mounts in in the laptop case is smashed? buying a bottom case is not worth it, you can buy a new one for another 50 bucks
[05:34] <tripelb> re nexus 7 to have it seen by 12.04 but: the ubuntu maching is isolated from the internet so i have to download what is needed and bring it to it.
[05:37] <ClientAlive> if I'm using an ubuntu live cd to work on my installed ubuntu system will I just automatically have access to the installed system or do I have to do something?
[05:40] <wilee-nilee> ClientAlive, you need to chroot to it to change operating system settings, otherwise a live cd gives you the ability to pull stuf out like a backup
[05:41] <wilee-nilee> !chroot }
[05:41] <wilee-nilee> !chrot
[05:41] <wilee-nilee> doh
[05:42] <ClientAlive> wilee-nilee: I'm redoing the computer. Have all my backups but am needing to tear down one last volume group (the one the old system is installed on) the pv after that then the vg.
[05:42] <ClientAlive> still requires chroot or is there an alternative?
[05:43] <ClientAlive> ok
[05:43] <ClientAlive> I think I can find something on the arch site
[05:43] <ClientAlive> how to do it I mean
[05:43] <wilee-nilee> ClientAlive, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot
[05:43] <ClientAlive> oh cool. thx
[05:44] <wilee-nilee> ClientAlive, chroot has a few different uses, but from a live cd it allows yopu to run the OS as if you were booted into it.
[05:45] <ClientAlive> right on
[05:45] <ClientAlive> I don't remember doing it the way I see on that ubuntu page though (don't recall anything about debootstrap when I did a gentoo install)
[05:45] <johngilbrough> How does one retrieve a lost irc nick password?  sendpass says i'm not authorized.
[05:45] <wilee-nilee> as far as changing things or removing apps or loading apps
[05:47] <rodrigo> Boa noite
[05:48] <wilee-nilee> johngilbrough, Go to the #freenode channel tell them and they will send you a message to your registered email
[05:48] <ClientAlive> that's too confusing. Isn't there some boot cd that just does it for you?
[05:48] <johngilbrough> Thank you will ---
[05:49] <ClientAlive> all I need to do is run like 3 commands against the installed system (but with it not booted up or mounted)
[05:49] <wilee-nilee> ClientAlive, here is a cheat, this is for chrooting in to change grub it is one single command check it out. http://howtoubuntu.org/how-to-repair-restore-reinstall-grub-2-with-a-ubuntu-live-cd/
[05:50] <ClientAlive> right on
[05:50] <wilee-nilee> same chroot it sets you as root in the OS
[05:51] <Cyclohexane> is there a limit on rm -rf file*? like 15k might cause a problem? lol
[05:52] <ClientAlive> what would I mount in my case though? For me it is raid across 3 disks, then lvm from vol group to logical vol (the system itself is installed on a logical volume).
[05:52] <ClientAlive> I don't think ti
[05:53] <ClientAlive> it's gonna be anything like /dev/sdax for me
[05:53] <wilee-nilee> Cyclohexane, lol you can ran that command in the right way a wipe everything
[05:54] <wilee-nilee> ClientAlive, I'm not familiar with other then msdos setups
[05:54] <ClientAlive> oh, ok
[05:54] <SwedeMike> Cyclohexane: yes, usually it doesn't expand into an infinitely long list of files. limit differs between shells I'd imagine.
[05:55] <ClientAlive> maybe I'lll just /dev/zero it far enough in on each disk to wipe out all that accounting data stuff
[05:59] <caffine> i have a video capture device attached via USB. it's kinda working with mplayer with "mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:input=0:norm=ntsc", but when i add audio, it gets skippy and slows and speeds the video. was looking at avconv, but it wants a device (right?)  how do i find the /dev where the capture device has been added?
[06:00] <MrHanjrah> hello, i created PXE server for ubuntu 12.04 installation, and i am trying to start the ubuntu installer in VMware (host machine is Windows 8), after the kernel loads, it throws me to the (initramfs) error with BusyBox error,
[06:01] <MrHanjrah> same PXE server hosts Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 and Fedora 18, which can boot properly and the installer starts normally
[06:01] <woo> MrHanjrah: do you need to mod the .iso?
[06:01] <MrHanjrah> mod?
[06:02] <woo> MrHanjrah: sorry 'Modify' the grub from raw iso?
[06:02] <BigWig> So I installed Linux Mint. However, when I restart it takes me to the Windows Boot Loader instead of Grub. I only have a 128mb flash drive, how do I fix this?
[06:02] <MrHanjrah> and yes, the srever itself is Arch Linux box
[06:02] <woo> ! isomaster | MrHanjrah
[06:02] <psil0cybin> Hey guys
[06:03] <psil0cybin> i have a quick question
[06:03] <woo> :(
[06:03] <psil0cybin> im running unity2d, and im trying to get the top panel to be transparent, is there anyway
[06:03] <MrHanjrah> woo: I am not sure if i need to modify the grub entry because other OS iso's boot properly
[06:03] <psil0cybin> I just upgraded drivers from additional drivers, but it says I have 3D support, but i am not able to run unity 3d
[06:04] <woo> MrHanjrah: is it install on the Arch box? or is it raw?
[06:05] <witeds> greetings i was wondering i have changed a few things on my distro and if i update to the newest version i will have to remove it again what are the adverse affects fro not updating with new distro releases
[06:07] <MrHanjrah> woo: ok, i'll tell the scenerio, I have 4 Operating system ISO's (rhel6, fedora18, ubuntu 12.04, Lubuntu 12.04) which are on the Arch box as is it (in ISO format) and which are mounted via fstab (so that they get mounted automatically on every reboot), i have Syslinux packages which is use as a menu for PXE server, and all the MOUNTED iso's are shared via nfs
[06:07] <wilee-nilee> witeds, your description would be more helpful if you were specific for example what release are you running and what apps.
[06:07] <wilee-nilee> or what changes
[06:07] <jony> how can I uninstall libreoffice 4 and goback to the one in ubuntu's repository?
[06:08] <MrHanjrah> rhel6 and Fedora18 are configured the same way as ubuntu and Lubuntu 12.04 but the problem is that both rhel and fedora iso's boot properly in a VM but *ubuntu iso's put me at the (initramfs) prompt
[06:08] <woo> MrHanjrah: could you steal an fstab from a live ubuntu session?
[06:08] <MrHanjrah> woo: already on it
[06:08] <wilee-nilee> jony, Does it show in the software center, how did you install it?
[06:09] <woo> MrHanjrah: do the fstabs match the arch?
[06:09] <witeds> well lubuntu 12.10 i removed things like chrome browser if i update to 13.04 when it comes out i usualy  have to do it by disk and install it so the lubuntu-desktop and all the extra stuff i dont realy want is reinstalled
[06:09] <witeds> is there any downsides to not updating with your distribution
[06:09] <MrHanjrah> woo: and booting directly from ubuntu iso boots fine in a VM
[06:10] <jony> wilee-nilee, I downloaded from the libreoffise site, unpacked, had many deb files, then: sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[06:10] <wilee-nilee> witeds, there is a end of life on all releases as of now, after EOL you will have the security updates and others as well.
[06:11] <witeds> ok so you can only go so far that helps thanks
[06:11] <woo> MrHanjrah: and its not the virtual disk grub messing with you then; is the vmware code?
[06:12] <wilee-nilee> jony, Does it show in the ubuntu software center?
[06:12] <jony> yes, in the history all those packages
[06:12] <MrHanjrah> woo: its VMware Workstation 9
[06:12] <wilee-nilee> witeds, I left out the NO security updates is what I meant
[06:13] <jony> wilee-nilee, yes, in the history all those packages
[06:13] <jony> wilee-nilee, no, sorry, it shows only the ubuntu's version
[06:13] <wilee-nilee> jony, remove it from there, then run a install from the terminal sudo apt-get install libreoffice
[06:13] <woo> MrHanjrah: did you try lubuntu or another not gnome3 ubuntu flavor?
[06:14] <MrHanjrah> woo: Lubuntu is the same
[06:14] <wilee-nilee> jony, Ah I see, I'm not sure on removing it otherwise, sorry.
[06:14] <MrHanjrah> stuck at (initramfs)
[06:14] <woo> MrHanjrah: Lubuntu is up?
[06:14] <woo> MrHanjrah: ya thats a ubuntu issue if the other os's are up and responding.
[06:15] <witeds> yes so you can only go so far before you have to update for the security  benefit  hence you can only take it so far
[06:15] <MrHanjrah> woo: yes, rhel6 (gnome 2) and fedora (gnome 3) are fine, the installer boots as it should
[06:15] <wilee-nilee> witeds, Not sure if you know this but 12.04 is covered for 5 years
[06:16] <woo> MrHanjrah: see im not very good at this I would just load 10.04 and update
[06:16] <witeds> yes i know
[06:16] <woo> MrHanjrah: might lead you back to busybox
[06:17] <MrHanjrah> woo: i guess something is wrong with the configuration of PXE server itself, because if the iso can boot directly, it should boot from the PXE because PXE itself is holding the same image file
[06:18] <witeds> i was just trying to find out if it would be better to update with the distribution when it comes and i am ready for it or to stick with my current setup and what would be an issue if i didn't update and you answered that and i am thank full
[06:20] <woo> MrHanjrah: I would try it from a live puppy linux session on the windows machine and see if it worked that way too
[06:22] <woo> ! ot | woo ./sorry
[06:23] <psilocybinn> hey guys can someone try and help me get transparency working on my unity2d panel?
[06:27] <woo> How do I stop nmap from giving up my localhost name?
[06:28] <Akiva-Mobile> how do I authorize ubuntu to access my facebook account?
[06:31] <psilocybinn> god damit lol! the top panel has transparency when im using the launcher (looking at apps)
[06:31] <psilocybinn> but i cant just set it to always be like that >.<
[06:31] <woo> ! language | psilocybinn
[06:32] <psilocybinn> sorry
[06:32] <woo> no worries
[06:33] <woo> psilocybinn: I just pile on a bunch of fullscreen terminals to dim the screen ;)
[06:33] <Akiva-Mobile> uhmmmm, just installed ati drivers, catalyest etc, and rebooted. All I get now is a desktop, with no unity; help!
[06:33] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: type man unity
[06:34] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: did it work?
[06:34] <Akiva-Mobile> nop
[06:34] <Akiva-Mobile> nope.
[06:34] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: is it installed?
[06:34] <Akiva-Mobile> Yep.
[06:34] <pppZero> woo, re: nmap giving up the hostname, how do you mean?
[06:34] <woo> pppZero: local area hostnames
[06:34] <Akiva-Mobile> woo, This is a fresh install of ubuntu, just trying to get it setup for a friend
[06:35] <jony> wilee-nilee, I managed to remove it
[06:35] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: if "man unity" didn't work try sudo apt-get install uni(TAB KEY)
[06:36] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: wait
[06:36] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: does "which unity" work?
[06:36] <wilee-nilee> jony, Cool. :)
[06:36] <Akiva-Mobile> woo sec
[06:36] <Akiva-Mobile> nope
[06:37] <pppZero> woo, `nmap -n ` will scan without looking up hostnames
[06:37] <Akiva-Mobile> all I see is a little box in the right bottom corner
[06:37] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: ya unistalled itself :)
[06:37] <Akiva-Mobile> why?
[06:37] <Akiva-Mobile> bloody ati drivers.
[06:37] <Akiva-Mobile> glad I have intel on my lappy.
[06:37] <psilocybinn> anyone know if transparency works with MetaCity on Unity2d/?
[06:37] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: did it to me once.  had to use the failsafe session to restore the old video driver
[06:37] <psilocybinn> just for the top panel
[06:37] <jony> wilee-nilee, sudo apt-get autoremove sudo apt-get purge libreoffice*  sudo apt-get autocleansudo apt-get autoremove
[06:37] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: I think it works if you reinstall unity
[06:38] <jony> wile
[06:38] <Akiva-Mobile> woo sudo apt-get install unity?
[06:38] <jony> wilee-nilee, and after that sudo apt-get install libreoffice
[06:38] <woo> pppZero: ya I dont want it found
[06:38] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: do you have ubuntu center?
[06:38] <wilee-nilee> jony, I wondered if a standard purge would do it, makes sense with the type of install.
[06:38] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: or is it in a terminal session?
[06:39] <Akiva-Mobile> woo all I have is a wallpaper on f7, and a terminal in f1 through f6
[06:40] <Akiva-Mobile> and unity is already installed :P
[06:40] <jony> how can I crypt a folder to access it only by entering a password
[06:40] <Akiva-Mobile> I just checked...
[06:40] <wilee-nilee> jony, I use trucrypt to make crypt, then put it in a folder.
[06:41] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: on sec
[06:41] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: I want to check my thought process :)
[06:41] <Akiva-Mobile> I used to love amd :(
[06:42] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: It did it to my nvidia
[06:42] <pppZero> woo, easiest way is to setup iptables to drop (not block) all incomming connections - but then you have to allow incoming connections on anything you actually want to use (ie: ssh) - if you want to be really-really stealth, look into port knocking
[06:43] <jelly-home> jony: file oriented solutions: encfs (fuse-based), eCryptfs (kernel driver based)
[06:43] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: ok the way I did it was just sudo apt-get install unity: then rebooted into an xsession and removed additonal driver
[06:43] <Akiva-Mobile> woo I still have unity installed
[06:43] <Akiva-Mobile> thats the thing.
[06:44] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: I used shift in grub to access the other kernel
[06:44] <MrHanjrah> ok, so where is the kernel directory on the live/installation cd? is it vmlinuz under 'casper' directory or somewhere else? maybe named something else?
[06:44] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: ya it there an not there its strange
[06:44] <Akiva-Mobile> just going to try to uninstall the driver
[06:44] <woo> Akiva-Mobile:if you download the newest experimental they need help to run
[06:45] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: might work
[06:45] <Akiva-Mobile> fglrx is the driver name, right?
[06:46] <Akiva-Mobile> whatever, too late now, I pressed enter :p
[06:46] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: I used sudo apt-get remove nvidia-expermintal-123
[06:46] <gaze__> Hey devs, what packages are associated with wireless connectivity? I don't mean that as "how do I install them," I'm looking to strip down an xubuntu install and don't understand how exactly all the wireless card stuff actually gets pulled in
[06:46] <Akiva-Mobile> woo; i bet nvidia drivers would work better for this amd chipset...
[06:47] <gaze__> I see gnome-network-manager
[06:47] <Akiva-Mobile> gaze__: 2006 called, they want their wrapper back.
[06:47] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: I give ati a higher score then nvidia for preformance
[06:47] <woo> Akiva-Mobile: they are like n64 and ps
[06:48] <gaze__> Akiva-Mobile : I don't understand
[06:48] <Akiva-Mobile> woo: I am only buying intel integrated for now on.
[06:48] <Akiva-Mobile> gaze__: Just kidding around. messing with wireless was such a headache back then.
[06:49] <gaze__> I know. That's why i want to strip down an ubuntu install rather than design my own distro
[06:49] <woo> !ty | pppZero
[06:49] <gaze__> like I just don't understand how exactly all the card stuff actually gets pulled in.
[06:49] <gaze__> like, wpa_supplicant. Who pulls that in?!
[06:50] <woo> failbottu
[06:50] <gaze__> networkmanager, etc
[06:50] <jony> wilee-nilee, and crypted with trucrypt it's remain crypted even if it will try to access it in other OS?
[06:50] <aeon-ltd> gaze__: why don't you just use a distro that already is stripped down?
[06:51] <gaze__> because I want to understand what's going on in the first place, regardless of what I end up creating
[06:51] <Akiva-Mobile> ubottu: Do you love Mark Shuttleworth?
[06:52] <Akiva-Mobile> o_O
[06:52] <aeon-ltd> gaze__: understand what?
[06:52] <wilee-nilee> jony, Yes if you do it right I forget the choice, My crypt is accessible in windows and linux
[06:52] <gaze__> let's fully exclude what it is I'm doing. What's the dependency graph on xubuntu-desktop that pulls in wpa_supplicant
[06:53] <jelly-home> gaze__: aptitude why wpa_supplicant
[06:53] <wilee-nilee> jony, remains encrypted against any OS and is open with password in those OS's
[06:53] <woo> b | ubottu
[06:54] <wilee-nilee> !cookie | woo
[06:54] <hamid0000> hi i have the last version of tor but it does not work i run it in terminal and mozilla proxy is set
[06:55] <woo> sry didnt work
[06:55] <gaze__> jelly-home : sweet! Would you mind running that on a machine and pastebinning the result?
[06:55] <woo> !b
[06:55] <jelly-home> gaze__: I don't have xubuntu nearby.
[06:56] <gaze__> ubuntu I'm sure will have similar results, kubuntu, whatever... it'll at least be a lead
[06:56] <jelly-home> gaze__: I don't, in fact, have any ubuntu nearby.
[06:56] <gaze__> ah ha! okay.
[06:56] <gaze__> thanks though!
[06:57] <pppZero> gaze__, first off do `apt-file update` and it'll download the package list stuff, then `apt-file -l find <path_to_file>`and it'll tell you what package installed that file for you
[06:57]  * jelly-home is here pretyt much just to snoop on people running ubuntu and asking both here and in #debian
[06:58] <pppZero> but, as always, someone gave a better answer, faster :]
[07:05] <AAA> I can type
[07:05] <the_dark_knight> Hi, I have a README.md file. Where do I check how it gets parsed into. In short how do I check what it's output looks like?
[07:11] <vadi21> the_dark_knight: install ReText from the software center, and it will show you
[07:11] <Whitesquall> the_dark_knight: http://www.ctrlshift.net/project/markdowneditor/ - first link in the google
[07:12] <the_dark_knight> vadi21: Whitesquall Thanks.
[07:14] <izx> I am unable to close soffice in ubuntu 12.10 using killall?  Any other way?
[07:16] <AAA> the_dark_knight: start with file <that file name you just said>, if it is ascii you can you less or more or view or (....)
[07:17] <bergelmir> Can someone tell me how to restart gnome-keyring-daemon? It eats up my memory :(
[07:18] <AAA> bergelmir: service <foo> restart; but you most likely have a misconfiguration
[07:18] <bergelmir> AAA: gnome-keyring-daemon: unrecognized service
[07:19] <AAA> bergelmir: use ps to find out waht the process/pid is. like ps auxfwwww
[07:19] <AAA> and look throught the output and go from there
[07:20] <AAA> don't paste it
[07:21] <AAA> bergelmir: these are just general troubleshooting tips. not specific
[07:23] <bergelmir> okay, killed the process and started a new one. got my memory back and i hope everything is still working :)
[07:23] <bergelmir> AAA: thanks!
[07:25] <AAA> bergelmir: np. when in doubt, read the man page
[07:25] <AAA> bergelmir: and if you're new, rean 10 man pages for ever command you don't understand, because they probably relate
[07:39] <dr_willis> at the end of many man pages  - theres some 'see also/related' section. ;)
[07:39] <Enich> Greatings.   I have been trying to figure out how to do a unattended installation of the ubuntu minimalcd via virt-install for libvirt.  I would like to install it from a local iso, because of slow a slow internet connection.   Is there anyone with expertise on this topic whom would be able to help me with this or give me some pointers. I can fire up the commandline and initialize a installation, but its the unattended part that is giving me a grey hair   (iv
[07:39] <Enich> asked in the official libvirt)
[07:54] <helmut_> hi
[08:06] <Guest8227> 2
[08:18] <oal> Shouldn't cronjobs be run automatically on Ubuntu Desktop the way they do on a server, as long as they're in the crontab?
[08:18] <dr_willis> thats how they work on all my desktop systems oal
[08:18] <Seveas> oal: cron on Ubuntu Desktop is no different from on ubuntu server
[08:18] <dr_willis> Not a lot of differnce underneeth on a desktop or server these days ;
[08:19] <oal> It's odd because they don't seem to run. Is there any log file I can check out to see what's going on with my cronjobs then?
[08:20] <zerooneone> if i'm running precise can i install raring ringtail packages?
[08:20] <dr_willis> you dont want to mix releases
[08:20] <dr_willis> !backports
[08:21] <zerooneone> cat i apt-cache search backports?
[08:21] <dr_willis> its a repo. you can add.. so yes.
[08:21] <dr_willis> Not sure whats In backports.. might not be anything in it at this time
[08:23] <zerooneone> i want the latest ec2 tools maybe i should just compile them myself
[08:23] <dr_willis> there might be a ppa for them.
[08:23] <satoru_> does xubuntu have its own irc :3
[08:23] <zerooneone> ppa?
[08:23] <dr_willis> #xubuntu
[08:23] <dr_willis> !ppa
[08:23] <satoru_> I could have guessed it haha >:)
[08:24] <dr_willis> repos - ppas - source -- normaly order to try to install stuff
[08:25] <natsukao> hi
[08:25] <natsukao> good morning, afternnon, evening, night
[08:26] <natsukao> i found polipo
[08:26] <natsukao> but it was supported til l2012 from Archlinux for X86_64
[08:26] <natsukao> i have not found the source code of polipo in Archlinux
[08:27] <natsukao> will be interesting to have the last updates til l2012 from Archlinux,
[08:27] <natsukao> so will be possible to have a recent one
[08:27] <natsukao> i wrote to Archlinux, i hope to receive a reply
[08:28] <natsukao> sincerely i don't understand why was nont distributed the source code
[08:28]  * dr_willis wonders how much longer this will go on.. befor it relates to Ubuntu support....
[08:28] <natsukao> anyway polipo is distributed with a X11 License
[08:29] <natsukao> ubuntu updates it till 2010
[08:29] <natsukao> with the version 10..4.1-1.2
[08:29] <dr_willis> first google hit i find. shows sources ....    http://www.pps.univ-paris-diderot.fr/~jch/software/polipo/
[08:30] <natsukao> that are more old than Ubuntu and than Archlinux
[08:30] <natsukao> Archlinux supported it till 2012 for cpu X86_64 bit
[08:30] <dr_willis> the last commit on the git tree was over 6 mo ago.
[08:31] <dr_willis> looks like it may be a dead project to me
[08:31] <natsukao> eh, well i suppose it's correct
[08:31] <natsukao> but there is not way to have polipo
[08:31] <natsukao> polipo arrives to 264kb
[08:32] <natsukao> Tor is 2mb
[08:32] <dr_willis> the homepage shows how to get the latest via git.
[08:32] <natsukao> but with that shit of X, vidalia, FireFox, it arrives to 85Mb
[08:32] <natsukao> it's not good dr_willis for router and forur router wi-fi
[08:33] <dr_willis> natsukao:  so... do you have an actual ubuntu support question?
[08:33] <zerooneone> thanks dr_willis looks like i have to complile
[08:33] <dr_willis> ;)
[08:34] <natsukao> yes, a polipo version for cpu mips, mipsel, arm, armel, X86 32bit, x86 to 64 bit, sparc, powerpc, alpha, mvme, 680x0
[08:34] <natsukao> and many othe ones
[08:35] <llutz> !info polipo
[08:35]  * dr_willis still has missed the actual ubuntu support question.....
[08:35] <llutz> so what is your point natsukao? any ubuntu related question?
[08:35] <natsukao> if polipo is dead, it's arrived the moment to go to the Fork and to do a new verion totally GPL'd
[08:35] <llutz> so what is your point natsukao? any ubuntu related question?
[08:36] <llutz> !ot | natsukao
[08:36] <natsukao> will be my intention to have polipo source code, thanks ubottu
[08:37] <llutz> natsukao: "git clone git://git.wifi.pps.univ-paris-diderot.fr/polipo"  done
[08:37] <natsukao> isn't a support channel polipo ? for the simple fact that there is nont a maintener from 3 years
[08:37] <natsukao> thanks llutz
[08:37] <llutz> !alis | natsukao
[08:39] <dr_willis> Given how little work seems to be getting done on it.. i would be suprised theres a dedicated irc channel
[08:39] <dr_willis> Source code is ag the Polipo homepage...
[08:39] <natsukao> connection refused
[08:39] <dr_willis> working fine here...
[08:39] <dr_willis> https://github.com/jech/polipo
[08:41] <dr_willis> or download the tar.gz sources
[08:44] <natsukao> that is the source code to download ?
[08:44] <okdamn> hey
[08:44] <dr_willis> its right there on the download link on the apps homepage

[09:19] <cfhowlett> spirit_, yes we see you
[09:19] <spirit_> :)
[09:19] <llutz> natsukao: still, what is your ubuntu-related question? if you don't have any, please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic or any other related channel
[09:20] <natsukao> will be a pleasure to send to my friends developers, to do a Fork, and to port it without a single row om other architectures and with a different name
[09:20] <natsukao> bye bye
[09:20] <natsukao> thanks again for the help
[09:28] <LyzardKing> where can I ask for help with the ubuntu-sdk?

[09:30] <Gyro54> Hi!
[09:30] <devswap> hi all - is libre office about the best opensource office package ?
[09:30] <cfhowlett> Gyro54, greetings
[09:30] <cfhowlett> devswap, some would say .... compare to open office.
[09:30] <Gyro54> I am trying to connect a Sierra Aircard 320U which is recognised but will not connect to the service?
[09:31] <Neutron01_> is there any shortcut to open terminal?
[09:31] <devswap> cfhowlett: I thought that open office was to be discontinued - is this wrong / been changed?
[09:31] <Gyro54> How can I test the unit?
[09:31] <cfhowlett> devswap, wrong.  open office is still active just no longer supported by oracle
[09:32] <devswap> cfhowlett: oh ok - maybe I will check that out then as I prefered it to libre office
[09:32] <cfhowlett> devswap, many OO developers have switched to Libre so libre is in many ways now more current coded that oo
[09:32] <hans> hello there, im a new ubuntu user, i have a  problem and found the solution, but i dont't know how to do it. this is the link of the "solution" http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=2d4fda4b09e67e47d3e6fc4743fc6e81bfe40f28
[09:33] <k1l_> Neutron01_: ctrl+alt+t
[09:33] <Neutron01_> thank k1l_
[09:33] <Gyro54> devswap: The latest Libre is hard to beat
[09:34] <ejv> hans: Ubuntu uses pre-compiled binaries for its environment, you can't really incorporate that fix without some "work", for very advanced users only.
[09:34] <devswap> gyro54: just updating to it now
[09:35] <ejv> hans: I'd suggest putting pressure on the Xorg PPA devs to release a new binary for you that ships with that patch.
[09:35] <devswap> gyro54: there isnt a scaled down version from android is there?
[09:35] <hans> ejv, look at the 2 last comments here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=138322
[09:35] <Gyro54> devswap: not yet. They are working on it
[09:36] <k1l_> devswap: for android support please ask in the android channels
[09:36] <cfhowlett> devswap, see http://www.mediabistro.com/appnewser/libre-office-coming-to-android_b24422
[09:36] <devswap> thanks all
[09:38] <ejv> hans: Arch is a rolling release distribution that uses slotted packaging (AFAIK); so it's not a basis for comparison; Check out the PPA and see if there's a binary that was built with the fix you're looking for. At least, that's what I'd do, before filing a new bug.
[09:39] <Neutron01_> how can i install this package by sudo apt-get install http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/nattybleed/natty/main/base/libglew1.6-dev
[09:39] <Neutron01_> this pacakge is avaialbe on internet but
[09:39] <Neutron01_> when typing sudo apt-get install it saying unknow
[09:40] <ejv> Neutron01_: which version do you want? 32bit or 64bit?
[09:40] <Neutron01_> 32 bit
[09:40] <hans> ejv, im a new linux user, cant u give me more steps on how to do it... i even dont know how to search a ppa..please
[09:40] <cfhowlett> Neutron01_, natty is end of life ...
[09:40] <cfhowlett> !eol
[09:41] <ejv> Neutron01_: you need to actually *go* to the website, then copy the full link to the .deb package you're interested in; example: wget http://ppa.launchpad.net/natty-bleed/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/g/glew/libglew1.6-dev_1.6.0-3~ppa1~natty1_i386.deb && dpkg -i libglew1.6-dev-*
[09:41] <Neutron01_> ejv ok thanks
[09:41] <ejv> Neutron01_: Also, I would *not* use ubuntuupdates.org. Use the PPA directly. Much safer and more current.
[09:41] <Neutron01_> ppa how, i never used it before
[09:42] <Neutron01_> ejv i mostly type apt-get install
[09:43] <ejv> NewWorld: it looks like glews source package is in the primary repo, what does sudo apt-get install libglew1.6-dev do?
[09:43] <ejv> Neutron01_: ^
[09:44] <Neutron01_> ok
[09:44] <ejv> Neutron01_: reference: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+package/libglew1.6-dev
[09:45] <benedict> !chinese
[09:46] <Neutron01_> thanks ejv
[09:46] <ejv> hans: patching and compiling packages is heavily documented, it's not something I (personally) have time to walk you through unfortunately, and I wouldn't want to because of the support nightmare it introduces if you break dependencies on other packages.
[09:47] <ejv> hans: for starters check out: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware and http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man1/patch.1.html
[09:48] <hans> ok ejv thanks...
[09:48] <ejv> hans: according to the comments you left, the xorg fix you're interested in, made its way upstream, chances are the fix is actually already included, and you have a different, but similar problem. When all else fails, file a bug report on the Xorg Launchpad.
[09:51] <hans> ejv, few years ago i was trying to do this, and i found a solution, something with pacman repository, but i switched to windows and forgot everything... ill try to find the solution for this problem...but i dont remember a lot of things of this OS...
[09:51] <ejv> hans: if you're using arch, there's a seperate channel for that :)
[09:51] <k1l_> pacman is not ubuntu specific
[09:52] <hans> ejv im using ubuntu
[09:52] <ejv> you mean it's not arch specific k1l_ ?
[09:52] <k1l_> i wanted to say, that ubuntu doesnt use pacman
[09:52] <hans> oh...i get it...
[09:53] <ejv> k1l_: indeed :)
[09:53] <ejv> hans: this is ubuntu and in ubuntu land, we use dpkg. Package managers are not interchangeable.
[09:54] <ejv> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dpkg
[09:55] <hans> ejv, ill read this after the two links u send before
[09:55] <hans> ejv thanks

[10:13] <cfhowlett> donttrustem, To set kernel boot options, you must edit your grub configuration. You can do this temporarily for a single boot by entering the grub menu. If you do not get to see the grub boot menu after the bios automatically, you may have to press SHIFT key after the bios logo to get in to grub:

[10:20] <zorgs> hi
[10:20] <zorgs> is this the place for a few console related questions?
[10:20] <cfhowlett> zorgs, greetings
[10:20] <zorgs> relatively advanced I reckon
[10:20] <zorgs> cfhowlett, oi
[10:20] <cfhowlett> zorgs, go for it
[10:21] <zorgs> so I have this console app which is let's say a server of some kind
[10:21] <zorgs> it's running something and it is a console app
[10:21] <zorgs> I start it with a script in a screen session
[10:21] <zorgs> so it stays always on when I break my telnet session
[10:21] <zorgs> what I want to do is...
[10:22] <zorgs> control this from a script.. like if I type "save" in the console, and hit enter... it will save.
[10:22] <zorgs> if I want a script that makes the server save every hour.. I want a crontab executing that script every hour but how can I send "save\n" to that process?
[10:23] <zorgs> couldn't find anything useful on stackxchange
[10:25] <cfhowlett> zorgs, might be a good question for the CLI ninjas on #ubuntu-server
[10:25] <k1l_> zorgs: imho, the server app you are running should provide that feature. not ubuntu itself
[10:26] <maveas> I'm trying to use xdmcp with lightdm over ssh but I'm getting "Failed to load session Ubuntu". Any ideas what might be wrong? (Have been googling for a long time now and I added enabled=true to lightdm.conf
[10:26] <zorgs> all righty
[10:26] <zorgs> there's a separate server channel didn't know
[10:26] <zorgs> good idea

[10:34] <cfhowlett> donttrustem, so you got ONE boot and then nothing?
[10:34] <donttrustem> cfhowlett: no i reboot a couple of times
[10:35] <cfhowlett> donttrustem, did you md5sum the ISO?  and also check the boot disk for errors

[11:12] <Sacrelicious_> hey all, if anyone is around i need some help installing ubuntu
[11:12] <cfhowlett> Sacrelicious_, ask
[11:12] <cfhowlett> sayed, maybe ask in #ubuntu-server channel
[11:13] <Sacrelicious_> okay so i had an issue with my windows system, i decided to give ubuntu a shot, figuring if i installed it off a usb key it would likely wipe my harddrive and give me a clean slate
[11:13] <Sacrelicious_> in any case, i attempted to do so, but i got a black screen of death, upon researching i figured out that i had to hit shift and try run it in nomodeset, likely a graphical issue
[11:13] <cfhowlett> Sacrelicious_, good so far ...
[11:14] <Sacrelicious_> so when i did that i got an error message saying "KVM disabled by bios", I found a VT option in my bios, enabled it, and gave another shot to running it off my usb key, apparently i need to run it and update the driver and then attempt installing it again
[11:14] <soee> hi, how can i dynamically put current date into zip filename ?
[11:14] <Sayed_> hiiii i am trying to install ubuntu 10.4 server on hp proliant g7 server but itz asking me for cd rom driver
[11:14] <Sacrelicious_> okay, except this time, after the splash screen, theres a red cursor in the top left corner of my screen, after about 2 seconds a message flashes thats too fast to read, then the black screen of death again.
[11:14] <cfhowlett> sayed, ask in #ubuntu-server channel
[11:15] <Sayed_> coiuld u plz provide me link for ubuntu server channel???
[11:15] <DJones> sayed: Can you give a bit more detail, how are you installing, cd or usb key, and at what point do you get the error? As cfhowlett says, I'd ask that in #ubuntu-server
[11:15] <Sayed_> usb
[11:15] <cfhowlett> !server|sayed, #ubuntu-server
[11:15] <DJones> sayed: /join #ubuntu-server
[11:16] <Sacrelicious_> i am also running in nomodeset as well, as i was instructed by a video i saw on youtube.
[11:16] <Sayed_> infact i already have server 10.4 ver
[11:17] <borov> Maybe somebody knows why autofs don't work after system restart (Ubuntu 12.04). "/etc/init.d/autofs status" writing that autofs is running.
[11:17] <Sayed_> i have server 10.4 ver
[11:18] <Sayed_> plz help
[11:18] <vyze> hi people. I need some help: i lost connection to domain '.org' - i cannot get answer for any site like www.example.org. When i try to ping site, it shows   'unknown host'
[11:19] <Sayed_> ubuntu server 10.4 asking for cd drivers while installing the OS
[11:19] <Sacrelicious_> anyone have any idea what could be the problem?
[11:20] <cfhowlett> Sayed_, ask in the server channel!  #ubuntu-server
[11:21] <chrisr> Im running 12.04 on my Dell E6530 laptop but suspend doesn't work - it doesn't come back to life.  Is there something I can do to fix this or shall I just give up now?
[11:24] <Sacrelicious_> can anyone help with the black screen of death upon trying to install ubuntu? i've been trying for hours.
[11:25] <Sacrelicious_> nomodeset is not working
[11:25] <borov> Maybe somebody knows why autofs don't work after system restart (Ubuntu 12.04). "/etc/init.d/autofs status" writing that autofs is running.
[11:25] <cfhowlett> chrisr, do you have a swap partition?
[11:26] <chrisr> cfhowlett: yes I have a swap partition
[11:29] <mysterty> hello
[11:30] <cfhowlett> mysterty, greetings
[11:30] <dr_willis> Sacrelicious_:  whats your video chipset(S)
[11:31] <Sacrelicious_> honestly, i'm unsure, i'm running a hp pavillion g series, apparently this model is notorious for trying to install linux onto
[11:31] <Sacrelicious_> unfortunately, i cant get into my os to find out because it will not boot at the moment.
[11:32] <mysterty> I'm trying to giving rights to a group "devs" to "myfolder". So i create my group,  i did "chgrp -R devs myfolder", then "adduser user1 devs" for each user. But i'm still having this issue : cp: cannot create regular file `/var/www/myfolder/sub/file': Permission denied
[11:32] <chrisr> cfhowlett: Do you think it's possible then?
[11:32] <mysterty> (i also did chmod -R 775 mydolder)
[11:33] <Sacrelicious_> let me do some googling, i will let you know in a moment
[11:33] <cfhowlett> chrisr, usually I've noticed resume failing due to swap issues.  as you have, I don't know enough to advise you.  please ask your query in the channel again
[11:33] <dr_willis> Sacrelicious_:  a live  cd will let you find out most likely
[11:34] <Sacrelicious_> live cd of? windows?
[11:34] <dr_willis> Sacrelicious_:  knowing your video card is like one of the first things you should have looked into.
[11:34] <dr_willis> windows does not have a live  cd as far as i know
[11:34] <dr_willis> the ubuntu cd is a live cd
[11:34] <dr_willis> theres other disrtos out that are also live cds
[11:34] <Sacrelicious_> ah, well i'm trying to boot it off a usb stick at the moment and run it off of it, is that the same thing?
[11:35] <Sacrelicious_> its integrated intel
[11:35] <dr_willis> are you sure you made the usb stick correctly?
[11:35] <dr_willis> and are you sure its not INTEL + some other chip
[11:35] <Sacrelicious_> i did, i used a specific program for it
[11:36] <Sacrelicious_> it is intel, i do know that.
[11:37] <Sacrelicious_> the program i used for setting up the usb key was the universal USB install
[11:37] <Sacrelicious_> i used the iso file to turn it into a bootable drive
[11:37] <dr_willis> so  what exactly happens when you boot from it?
[11:38] <Sacrelicious_> well i get the purple screen with the keyboard on the bottom, thats where it was crashing
[11:38] <Sacrelicious_> so i hit shift, go to nomodeset, and try to boot ubuntu from the key, i get another splash screen that says ubuntu and has the loading bar,
[11:38] <Sacrelicious_> then i get a red cursor in the top left corner for a second or two, something flashes on the screen, and it goes black.
[11:38] <dr_willis> if your system is a dual-gpu optimus system that can cause issues.
[11:39] <dr_willis> Most intel drivers are allready included by default
[11:39] <Sacrelicious_> any potential workaround for that?
[11:40] <tyyhzh> hello
[11:40] <borov> guys, why autofs don't work after system restart. "/etc/init.d/autofs status" shows that it's running. After "/etc/init.d/autofs restart" everything starts working
[11:41] <tyyhzh> who chines?
[11:41] <tyyhzh> who chines?
[11:42] <cfhowlett> !cn|tyyhzh,
[11:43] <Sacrelicious_> in any case i've been searching the web for hours, i cant seem to find any solution to this, the only one i found was to use nomodeset which does not fix the problem
[11:43] <tyyhzh> hello
[11:43] <tyyhzh> who chines?
[11:43] <DJones> tyyhzh: What does "chines" mean
[11:44] <dr_willis> you need to determine your EXACT video chipset and if its a dual gpu setio Sacrelicious_
[11:45] <Sacrelicious_> got it, i'm not sure how to do that at the moment though as I can not get into my OS.
[11:45] <DJones> !pm > tyyhzh
[11:46] <dr_willis> Sacrelicious_:  You should also lookl up that exact model on askubuntu.com and the forums
[11:46] <Sacrelicious_> good call, let me look into it
[11:46] <Sacrelicious_> i've found a ton of pages about the series of laptop, apparently its a nightmare to get ubuntu running on, but nomodeset usually does the trick,
[11:47] <dr_willis> they mention optimus or any other reason for the issues?
[11:48] <Sacrelicious_> no, it mentions that its a graphical issue but again, nomodeset usually will fix it, then they boot from the disc and install the necessary drivers to continue with installation
[11:48] <tdotr6> Hi Good Morning, I have a question hopefully I can make this not very confusing. I did just finish a night shfit.. lol But I got in from work and I found my server unreachable..Running Ubuntu server 12.10... So I went over to physicly check it this time since it's the second time in 24 hours this has happened. There was nothing when I turned the screen and I couldnt get the screen to wake up...I
[11:48] <tdotr6> have checked logs and found nothing other then crazy amounts of DHCP Requests from all 3 nic cards.  The only thing I could find that I am able to duplicate is if I unplug 1 of the 3 NIC cards, they all become unreachable. So If Eth0 gets unplugged and I am pinging Eth2 say, It will die. but the moment eht0 is back in, eth2 will reply.... I work at a data center for a living but I am a networking
[11:48] <tdotr6> guy , not a server guy. This is blowing my mind why I am having this issue with no logs..or am I not looking at the right logs.. Sorry for spelling... Im very tired..
[11:48] <FloodBot1> tdotr6: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:49] <tyyhzh> Oh my god!
[11:49] <cfhowlett> tdotr6, ask in #ubuntu-server
[11:50] <tdotr6> LOL Tyy I know that turned out long..
[11:50] <tdotr6> And thx I will Cfh
[11:51] <tyyhzh> English my don't no
[11:51] <tyyhzh> !!
[11:51] <cfhowlett> !cn|tyyhzh,
[11:52] <DJones> tyyhzh: WHich language do you speak
[11:52] <tyyhzh> 可以用中文吗？
[11:52] <tyyhzh> 这里面有中国人吗？
[11:53] <DJones> tyyhzh: type "/join #ubuntu-cn" for support in chinese language
[11:53] <Sacrelicious_> okay, video chipset is simply showing as
[11:53] <Sacrelicious_> "Intel HD Graphics"
[11:54] <Jeppesen> hi all
[11:55] <cfhowlett> Jeppesen, greetings
[11:55] <Sacrelicious_> which isnt really a specific chipset, mind you -_-"
[11:55] <Jeppesen> I have a serious problem with my ubuntu 12.04 and dont know how to solve it. I did an upgrade (dist-upgrade) because it was a long time ago. Now I cannot login and use my desktop any more
[11:55] <Jeppesen> As soon as I enter my password at the login prompt, it says sometimes "already connected", but I dont see my usual desktop
[11:56] <cfhowlett> Jeppesen, so what DO you see?
[11:56] <chrisr> Hi all,  the suspend feature of my Ubuntu does not work - it never comes back alive.  Can this be fixed or should I just turn off the sleep feature?  I'm using a Dell E6530 lapto.
[11:56] <Jeppesen> sometimes it seems I get logged it, but doesnt see anything else on the screen except my wallpaper, no  buttons, no menus, nothing, only wallpaper
[11:57] <Jeppesen> Only on the upper right the icon for logoff/power off/etc... the strange thing is --> when I click on reboot, logoff or poweroff it seems that NOTHING happens
[11:57] <cfhowlett> Jeppesen, might be a unity glitch.  logout.  select the alternate session.  login.
[11:57] <Jeppesen> I have to push the power button on my computer case, then another kind of window appears and this works when I choose reboot or shutdown
[11:57] <Jeppesen> cfhowlett: yes, I am using unity
[11:57] <Micky_> #ubuntu-cn
[11:57] <Jeppesen> hold on a sec ... let me boot the machine
[11:57] <cfhowlett> Jeppesen, right.  try it WITHOUT unity
[11:58] <ejv> #ubuntu-server isn't very helpful (in my experience); during past occassions I had to wait days for a response, let alone something close to resembling an answer. Not sure passing the buck to that channel is in the best interest of users here. $0.02.
[11:58] <Jeppesen> I already tried ALT-F1, login as user, "sudo su -" and then apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade, apt-get upgrade, apt-get install -f, apt-get autoremove and apt-get autoclean
[11:58] <Jeppesen> machine is booting ...
[11:58] <Jeppesen> Ubuntu 12.10, sorry
[11:58] <cfhowlett> Jeppesen, none of which tells us if the problem is unit or not ...
[11:59] <dr_willis> dont use sudo su - ,,, sudo -s  or sudo -i   is the proper way
[11:59] <k1l_> Jeppesen: dont do sudo su -, use sudo -i
[11:59] <Jeppesen> ok
[11:59] <cfhowlett> Jeppesen, log out.  click on the gear symbol.  select a different session.  login.
[11:59] <Jeppesen> cfhowlett k1l_ : why?
[11:59] <dr_willis> sudo su -    is even more redundant. ;)
[11:59] <cfhowlett> Jeppesen, to see if UNITY is causing your issue.
[11:59] <k1l_> Jeppesen: enviroement hendling
[11:59] <ejv> just login as root, no sudo necessary, amirite?
[11:59]  * ejv ducks
[11:59] <Jeppesen> Ok, now listen. I am at the login prompt
[12:00] <k1l_> ejv: dont suggest that here :(
[12:00] <Jeppesen> I see my hostname "foobar", I see my username "johndoe" and I can click on "Other..."
[12:00] <ejv> k1l_: you don't say
[12:00] <lalondong> hey guys
[12:01] <Jeppesen> If I click on my user, I have the option to enter the password, and on the bottom I can choose "system default" or "Ubuntu"
[12:01] <tdotr6> Hey guy's anyone here have any networking exp with ubunut?
[12:01] <Jeppesen> the other two buttons just say "Cancel" and "Login"
[12:01] <ejv> !ask | tdotr6
[12:01] <tdotr6> Doesnt seem very alive in ubuntu-server
[12:01] <tdotr6> Ya for sure ejv
[12:01] <ejv> oh you're the guy that wrote a paragraph 15 minutes ago
[12:01] <cfhowlett> Jeppesen, click on the gear symbol ...
[12:01] <tdotr6> LOL
[12:02] <cfhowlett> Jeppesen, the Ubuntu symbol?
[12:02] <Jeppesen> I dont see any gear symbol cfhowlett
[12:02] <tdotr6> yea I wasnt going to write as much
[12:02] <ejv> no no no, you did the right thing, we value more detail over less detail here.
[12:02] <tdotr6> Basicly the problem is, 3 NIC Card setup, You unplug 1 NIC Card, All 3 become unreachable.
[12:02] <Jeppesen> on the top of the screen I see the date/time, on the upper right the symbol for "power". When I click on that I can choose "Suspend, Reboot, Shut-down"
[12:02] <tdotr6> LOL this is ture , more info is better
[12:02] <cfhowlett> I'm on 12.04 so I can't show you the pic.  Ask in channel how to change environments
[12:03] <ejv> is this reproduceable on other servers?
[12:03] <tdotr6> the other linux box I have is my router
[12:03] <tdotr6> it works great, the other linux box I had.. I just changed to windows
[12:03] <k1l_> Jeppesen: is it a plain ubuntu? that should have lightdm with that screen where you can change if you want to change to unity or other desktop
[12:03] <tdotr6> had to to setup the media center correctly
[12:03] <tdotr6> f'n windows...
[12:03] <tdotr6> lol
[12:04] <Jeppesen> I did choose "Ubuntu" now, instead of "System default" I entered my password and clicked on login ... Nothing happened, except --> next to the username appeared a green checkmark with the text "Already logged-in at"
[12:04] <Jeppesen> that happens all the time, and it doesnt continue to do anything, I still see the login prompt
[12:04] <ejv> tdotr6: and the ubuntu logs say what?
[12:04] <tdotr6> This box has been up for a few months all good no issues with the OS Ever..
[12:04] <tdotr6> The only thing I can see , is it sending out for DHCP requests
[12:04] <tdotr6> like crazy
[12:04] <Jeppesen> k1l_: I have no option to change that
[12:04] <tdotr6> but there are so many logs, I am not sure what one to check
[12:05] <tdotr6> like If I am even checking the one that matters
[12:05] <ejv> tdotr6: dmesg preferably
[12:05] <k1l_> Jeppesen: or try the guest account.
[12:05] <tdotr6> Ok let me check right now
[12:05] <jony> how can I mount an IP's all shares in a  single folder using fstab ?
[12:05] <Jeppesen> k1l_: what is the guest account?
[12:05] <tdotr6> Will dmesg make a new file on boot?
[12:05] <Jeppesen> I mean: i can log in as root and check what exactly the problem is, but where do I have to look for that? xorg.conf or somehwhere else?
[12:05] <tdotr6> or does it keep adding to the same log?
[12:06] <k1l_> Jeppesen: it should show you smth like this: http://www.pro-linux.de/images/NB3/imgdb/o_der-display-manager-lightdm.jpg
[12:06] <tdotr6> Just to know if I gotta check the historic log or not
[12:06] <k1l_> click the ubuntu symbol behind your username to select the desktop: http://ubuntusecke.net/wp-content/uploads/ubuntu12.10-lightdm_2.png   or press on the guest-account to get started in that
[12:06] <Jeppesen> k1l_: nope, I have another screen ... the background is exactly the same, but my login prompt is centered
[12:07] <OerHeks> cfhowlett, i think Jeppesen has the .Xauthority issue after update > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1036830 this could be fixed by removing ~/.Xauthority file
[12:07] <k1l_> Jeppesen: so again: is this a plain ubuntu or smth different? did you change smth in there?
[12:07] <cfhowlett> OerHeks, please advise him. ... over my head.
[12:08] <Jeppesen> k1l_: look, it looks like that --> http://i.stack.imgur.com/gwIOr.png
[12:08] <tyyhzh> #ubuntu-cn ubuntu
[12:08] <tyyhzh> ???
[12:09] <cfhowlett> tyyhzh, /join #ubuntu-cn
[12:09] <tdotr6> Hey ejv , So Dmsg is that not just bootup logs?
[12:09] <cfhowlett> !cn|tyyhzh,
[12:09] <OerHeks> Jeppesen, boot to login,  ctrl alt F2 and login , " sudo rm ~/.Xauthority " and logout and you can login again
[12:09] <tdotr6> Sorry gotta forgive me I am a Cisco guy.. Unix is just a hobby
[12:10] <rightshift> Hi, Does ubuntu 10.04 support both resolv.conf OR /etc/network/interfaces
[12:10] <rightshift> for DNS entries
[12:10] <Jeppesen> k1l_: what do you mean with plain ?
[12:11] <rightshift> I'm trying to standardize server dns - but i'm not sure if 10.04 supports entries in /etc/network/interfaces
[12:11] <cfhowlett> rightshift, perhaps a question for #ubuntu-server
[12:11] <rightshift> thx
[12:11] <Jeppesen> cfhowlett: yes, some day I saw a message that such a file (something like Xauthority or similar, dont remember) could not be created under /home/johndoe/bla..
[12:11] <k1l_> Jeppesen: if its an ubuntu or some ubunut spinoff or some customized ubuntu
[12:12] <Jeppesen> k1l_: plain ubuntu then, nothing special, nothing tweaked,
[12:13] <Jeppesen> OerHeks: but I have no file in ~/ called .Xauthority I checked that
[12:14] <dr_willis> Double check. ;)
[12:14] <Ben64> files that start with . are hidden
[12:14] <OerHeks> Jeppesen, it is hidden, ( the "." in front of a file means hidden)
[12:14] <dr_willis> also seen other user settings mess things up if they are owned by root
[12:14] <OerHeks> Jeppesen, ls -al should show it
[12:15] <Jeppesen> OerHeks: I know, but there is no hidden file called something with authority. I also did run "find / -name authority" but didnt find anything
[12:15] <Jeppesen> but I have found with "locate authority" a file called /var/lib/gdm/.ICEauthority
[12:15] <cristian_c> Hi
[12:16] <cristian_c> I'm using ubuntu 12.04
[12:16] <cfhowlett> cristian_c, greetings
[12:16] <cristian_c> After I executed the suspension and resume, chromium can't be started anymore
[12:16] <cristian_c> If I try to launch it from terminal, I get an error
[12:16] <cristian_c> pcilib: Cannot open /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:02.1/resource: File or directory not found
[12:16] <cristian_c> Why?
[12:22] <Jeppesen> I also tried to create a new user with "adduser test" and login with him, but no success :(
[12:23] <pleasehelp> please help i just installed backtrack R3 on my laptop..but when ever i try to boot the pc it displays a white text of commands and it takes hangs at some instant of text.
[12:23] <pleasehelp> and it won't ask me for username and password
[12:23] <Jeppesen> I am logged in and ONLY see wallpaper. I only can do right-click, and I am also able to create a new directory which I see then on the desktop
[12:23] <pleasehelp> please help me with this issue
[12:23] <Pici> pleasehelp : We do not support backtrack here, please use their support channel at #backtrack-linux
[12:23] <DJones> !backtrack | pleasehelp
[12:23] <peresto> hi i had awindow and a linux os on my laptop.i installed win7 again but now it seems i don't have linux .what happent to my linux?
[12:23] <cfhowlett> peresto, windows wrote over grub.  Ubuntu is still there.
[12:24] <cfhowlett> !grub|peresto
[12:24] <Jeppesen> OerHeks: please give me the link where the bug with unity is described  you mentioned before
[12:25] <OerHeks>  Jeppesen .Xauthority  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1036830 this could be fixed by removing ~/.Xauthority file
[12:27] <Jeppesen> OerHeks: I fixed it!! :) but it was not the ~/.Xauthority file. I did a "cd /var/lib && mv .ICEauthority .ICEauthority.bak" rebooted, logged-in, and I have back my environment.
[12:27] <Jeppesen> I am not sure if that fixed everything, because it seems I have no dock bar on the left side anymore.
[12:28] <Jeppesen> But I see the top menu bar and the tray icons again
[12:28] <Jeppesen> I am not sure what happened
[12:28] <Jeppesen> seems that I am missing my program bar :( damn
[12:29] <Jeppesen> how can I have the left dock bar back ? and how do I check which DE I am using atm ?
[12:30] <Jeppesen> is there a keyboard shortcut to open a terminal window while logged-in in my DE ?
[12:30] <linus> I have changed the default login screen theme of my ubntu 12.04 machine to something taht looks like this: http://www.google.co.in/imgres?hl=en&sa=X&biw=1301&bih=678&tbm=isch&tbnid=SqPQe3Lse-KS1M:&imgrefurl=http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Logging_into_the_Ubuntu_10.x_GNOME_Desktop&docid=rUPvZyNmcBoQWM&imgurl=http://www.techotopia.com/images/9/95/Ubuntu_10.10_login_screen.jpg&w=801&h=596&ei=dQhHUezAJIyErQeJsIC4Cw&zoom=1&ved=0CGQQhBw

[12:31] <OerHeks> Jeppesen, might be the unity plugin, see this page >> http://www.webupd8.org/2011/12/unity-3d-launcher-top-panel-doesnt-load.html
[12:31] <linus> ive done much google search for it but it didnt help
[12:31] <cfhowlett> linus, pretty sure that IS the default
[12:32] <linus> Oh...  But I want to get this theme: http://www.google.co.in/imgres?hl=en&sa=X&biw=1301&bih=678&tbm=isch&tbnid=HQSgRUq5QgW0_M:&imgrefurl=http://askubuntu.com/questions/191189/change-ubuntu-gnome-classic-theme&docid=r0nB0AaxbGgFQM&imgurl=http://i.stack.imgur.com/ozp9p.png&w=1278&h=958&ei=dQhHUezAJIyErQeJsIC4Cw&zoom=1&ved=0CIIBEIQcMAw&ved=1t:3588,r:12,s:0,i:130&iact=rc&dur=339&page=1&tbnh=178&tbnw=235&start=0&ndsp=15&tx=154&ty=67

[12:32] <dr_willis> ;)
[12:32] <dr_willis> gotta love tinyurl scripts
[12:32] <cfhowlett> dr_willis, indeed.
[12:33] <dr_willis> one of the handiest features i got on weechat
[12:33] <linus> dr_willis ... thats a gud 1 ... but now how can I get that theme...... :
[12:33] <k1l_> linus: then revert the changes you did?
[12:34] <dr_willis> linus:  no idea. i dont 'do' gnome classic
[12:35] <linus> k1l _ :   I dont know exactly which package  i,ve installed to make the change.....
[12:36] <cfhowlett> Linus do you have ubuntu-tweak???
[12:36] <dr_willis> if a newly made user has the proper look.. then you could just clean out/delete all the other users settings
[12:36] <linus> Yes, i've installed ubuntu tweak.
[12:36] <cfhowlett> linus, how did I know?
[12:37] <dr_willis> ubuntu-tweak used to have a 'reset settings back to defaults' option - not looked at it in ages
[12:37] <dr_willis> been using unsettings lately
[12:37] <cfhowlett> Linus  that's where you broke it/that's you fix it.  Note:  Ubuntu tweak is NOT in the ubuntu repo's ... for a reason.
[12:38] <linus> Its the login screen that has changed, so it is same for all.By the way,where is the option revert settings in ubuntu tweak?
[12:38] <dr_willis> the login screen has changed to what?
[12:38] <linus> To that of Gnome3's from ubuntu's default
[12:39] <dr_willis> so you are usin GDM instead of lightdm
[12:39] <amada95> ciao
[12:40] <linus> how can i change it back to GDM?
[12:40] <dr_willis> no lists here amada95
[12:40] <dr_willis> linus:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[12:40] <k1l_> linus: the screen you want is lightdm, not gdm
[12:41] <k1l_> linus: so that command will be "sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm"
[12:42] <amada95> ciao
[12:42] <linus> Thankyou all for your suggestions.Will try them out and come back.Wish me luck.
[12:43] <Reemo> Hey guys, i have a problem with my ubuntu server 12.10 installation. I have several drives configured in raid5 (storage only). If i have all drives attached on boot, the screen stays blank. If i detach all drives except the boot drives (raid1), it will boot up just fine
[12:43] <chrisr> linus: Hi Linus, I'd be greateful if you could get 'Suspend' working in the next version
[12:43] <chrisr> linus: ...of the kernel
[12:43] <Reemo> Can you give me any hint on how i can debug the boot (the last thing i see before the screen is blank is "loading ramdisk"
[12:43] <dr_willis> chrisr:  ask the hw makers to give better support and specs also...
[12:45] <chrisr> dr_willis: ok

[12:52] <Martin_> Reemo: I would remove 'quiet' and 'splash' option in grub menu entry
[12:52] <afd> I think my SD card got bricked when there was an unexpected shutdown. can someone help me in terminal to check it out / fix it pls
[12:53] <Martin_> Reemo: take a loot at /etc/default/grub
[12:53] <Reemo> Martin_: thanks for the suggestion, but this is a server install. it doesnt have quiet and splash enabled by default
[12:53] <Martin_> ahh...
[12:55] <Reemo> But right now im looking at a nice little kernel panic...
[12:55] <afd> neither nautilus nor gparted can see the card... any ideas?
[12:55] <Martin_> Reemo: ok :)
[12:55] <Reemo> So, it looks like mdadm doesnt properly assemble the boot raid array when i boot with the other drives attached
[12:56] <Reemo> sounds weird...
[12:58] <Martin_> oh, software raid ... :)
[12:58] <Martin_> afd: did you take a look at your logfiles ?
[12:59] <afd> the card was in a windows machine when it bricked - I'm trying ot use ubuntu to repair it
[12:59] <afd> will the log files show anything?
[12:59] <afd> I've only live booted and looked in nautilus / gparted so far
[12:59] <dr_willis> afd:  try ddrescue to recover data from it if needed.. and try using 'dd' to zero out and repartion the card.. might bring it back to life
[13:00] <afd> how do I identify the card if it isn't showing up anywhere...
[13:00] <Martin_> maybe the kernel doesn't see the card
[13:00] <Martin_> afd: try inserting the card then type 'dmesg'
[13:01] <Martin_> and see if you see something related to
[13:02] <afd> ok - looks like some stuff refers to the sd in dmesg
[13:02] <afd> thinks it's sdb
[13:02] <Martin_> ok so you should see the card in gparted as sdb
[13:02] <afd> nah - it's not in gparted
[13:03] <Martin_> you don't see it in the drop down menu ??
[13:03] <dr_willis> if you dont see it get a sd# in dmesg when you plug it in.. then it may be truely dead
[13:03] <afd> I see sda (the hdd) and sdc (the live usb stick)
[13:03] <afd> I'm willing to take a gamble and try dd'ing the sdb - could someone talk me through the command/s pls
[13:04] <dr_willis> IF its not gettiong a sd# then you cant even dd it
[13:04] <afd> I only need it working - none of the data that was on it
[13:04] <afd> dr_willis: I think it is sdb as it says in dmesg
[13:04] <Martin_> dr_willis: it seems the kernel see the card as sdb
[13:04] <dr_willis> afd:  sudo blkid should show it then
[13:04] <dr_willis>  and gparted should see it.
[13:05] <afd> blkid shows loop0, loop1, sda1, sda2, sdc1
[13:05] <afd> but not the sdb :S
[13:06] <Martin_> try sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb
[13:06] <Reemo> oh wow
[13:06] <Reemo> for the record: reinstalling the kernel fixed it
[13:06] <Martin_> at least it should show partitions
[13:06] <Martin_> Reemo: very very strange...
[13:07] <afd> Martin_: fdisk didn't show any output (no errors, no confirmations...)
[13:07] <BluesKaj> Hiyas all
[13:07] <Martin_> afd: did it list some partitions or the size of the card ?
[13:07] <afd> nope, nothing
[13:07] <afd> is it not mounted or something?
[13:08] <ccvp> hello fellow internet addicts - are we all looking forward to another long & glorious week of irc, steam/gaming, reading random tech articles, and droning at work for 5 days..."longing" for when friday comes, so we can slouch in our lazy internet chair at home and stay inside on the computer for fri/sat/sun?
[13:08] <Martin_> afd: can you copy / paste the dmesg concerned part in http://pastebin.com/
[13:08] <Martin_> and fdisk output
[13:09] <ccvp> Martin, i have an Audigy 2,and for some reason my sound isn't working
[13:09] <ccvp> whats good set of steps to see why 12.10 aint playing sound/music?
[13:09] <BluesKaj> ccvp, in a word no ..I also have a life
[13:09] <Seekanet> lol ccvp
[13:10] <ccvp> seekanet, just bought a GTX 660 2GB Superclocked from EVGA
[13:10] <ccvp> big upgrade from ATI 5750
[13:10] <ccvp> got that working in ubuntu as my vid driver
[13:10] <ccvp> but sound aint working
[13:12] <BluesKaj> ccvp,
[13:12] <BluesKaj> 'in the terminal type ' alsamixer ', make sure the Master, PCM,Line & CD are all unmuted ,by using the "M" key' then turn those controls up to the max.
[13:13] <BluesKaj> ccvp, that's for starters
[13:13] <ccvp> i bought 4 Western Digital blacks the other day
[13:13] <ccvp> 2 TB each,
[13:13] <afd> Martin_: sorry for the n00bness but could you tell me how to get the output of dmesg to a file? I tried a couple of things and it didn't work, the output is too much to scroll through and copy & paste
[13:13] <ccvp> one ubuntu 12.10, one win8, one redhat6, one solaris
[13:13] <ccvp> can i use virtual box to boot those hd's
[13:13] <ccvp> without having to exclusively boot into em?
[13:14] <Martin_> BluesKaj: let it go :) lol
[13:15] <BluesKaj> Martin_, ?
[13:15] <Reemo> afd, "dmesg | less" for vi style output, "dmesg > /tmp/dmesg.log" for writing to /tmp/dmesg.log
[13:15] <afd> thank you ^
[13:16] <Martin_> thanks Reemo  ;)
[13:18] <Jeppesen> I have created within "Network Manager" an OpenVPN connection. Funnily when I click on the network symbol on the upper right part of the bar, I only have two options to click --> "Auto eth0" and "disconnect"
[13:18] <Jeppesen> I miss the "VPN connections", "Properties", etc...
[13:18] <Jeppesen> I have found out, when I disable the nic by choosing "Disconnect" and afterwards to a "Auto ETH0" everything appears fine
[13:19] <Jeppesen> Why?? After every reboot and login ,I first have to manually fix that by disabling/enabling my NIC. Any ideas how to fix that?
[13:19] <osirisx11> hi all

[13:23] <cambazz> hello, after i install ubuntu 12.04, i made an apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[13:23] <cambazz> is this the only thing i need to do to keep the system upto date?
[13:24] <capoderra> why does Ubuntu Software Center crash when I try to open it?
[13:24] <Reemo> osirisx11: quite a few ppa's there, could you get rid of a few (like: webupd8), update and try again?
[13:24] <osirisx11> Reemo: how do I know which to get rid of?
[13:24] <Martin_> osirisx11: sorry if it has already done but did you do apt-get update ?
[13:25] <osirisx11> Martin_ yes
[13:25] <Martin_> ok
[13:25] <RusVicious> capoderra ldd <name of binary of USC>
[13:25] <BluesKaj> osirisx11, mqake sure you uipgrade too
[13:25] <osirisx11> BluesKaj: yes I did. thank you.
[13:25] <Reemo> osirisx11: lets try the obvious... apt-get install libqt4-{help,scripttools,test}
[13:25] <BluesKaj> phat phingers here , but you get the message
[13:25] <RusVicious> oh
[13:25] <RusVicious> not ldd
[13:25] <compdoc> cambazz, you dont have to do apt-get update everytime, and sometimes to install things like new kernels, you have to do apt-get dist-upgrade
[13:26] <RusVicious> strace
[13:26] <osirisx11> Reemo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5625190/
[13:26] <Martin_> osirisx11: I don't see the 'precise-update' repo
[13:26] <Reemo> cambazz: you might as well just use the gui for updating
[13:27] <Martin_> maybe the option is not ticked
[13:27] <capoderra> RusVicious, what is name of binary
[13:28] <Martin_> osirisx11: take a look at updates tab in update manager
[13:29] <Martin_> afd: ? so ?
[13:29] <osirisx11> Martin_ thanks that is probably it
[13:29] <Martin_> osirisx11: you're welcome !
[13:30] <capoderra> RusVicious, what is name of binary
[13:30] <jvaemape> Hello, everybody！  How arp packets received?
[13:31] <RusVicious> I don't know:) I'm using apt-get
[13:31] <jeroen-> liferea is crashing on startup after fresh install: Liferea did receive signal 11 (Segmentatian fault).
[13:31] <Jeppesen> when I click on the network manager symbol on the upper right bar where the tray icons are, I dont see the VPN-tab. I have to "disable" the eth0 card, then re-enabling it by clicking "auto eth0". Then the VPN tab appears as well as some other more functions I can choose. Why ??
[13:32] <osirisx11> martin_ confirmed, that fixed it!
[13:32] <compdoc> Ive never used network manager for openvpn. maybe its not a good choice
[13:32] <Martin_> Jeppesen: did you take a look at launchpad bug list for network-manager  ?
[13:33] <Jeppesen> Martin_: dont know how
[13:38] <capoderra> hello all, I just installed 12.04 and I'm having various problems: USC is crashing on open, I'm getting errors and then when I choose to see the details it says it can't determine the package or source package, Skype crashes whenever someone calls me... what's the deal? bad install?
[13:39] <kallep> capoderr
[13:39] <kallep> capoderra: Skype have problems, thats for sure.. else idk
[13:40] <compdoc> capoderra, have you ever updated the system? use the command line
[13:40] <c2tarun> I installed plain vanilla XFCE4 on my Ubuntu desktop. On desktop I am getting a Home Icon. It is by default opening nautilus. I created a new home launcher on desktop which is working fine. But the problem is I am not able to remove the nautilus home launcher. http://imgur.com/CZYIQub  Please refer to the screenshot. Can anyone please help?
[13:41] <Jeppesen> I have tried some RDP clients, still having following issue: while I am using the RDP connection and the desktop on the remote client is black background, I dont see my mouse pointer, cause its also in black. What the heck, I didnt found any configuration option on the RDP client itself.
[13:41] <Jeppesen> any RDP client you can suggest guys?
[13:42] <capoderra> compdoc, the system is up to date.
[13:42] <jephb> hi

[13:43] <capoderra> compdoc, I just tried to update right now and got this error: An unresolvable problem occurred while initializing the package information.
[13:43] <capoderra> Please report this bug against the 'update-manager' package and include the following error message:

[13:43] <compdoc> capoderra, can you ping www.google.com?
[13:44] <capoderra> in the terminal i typed ping www.google.com and it seems to be working... it doesn't stop giving me pings.
[13:44] <compdoc> capoderra, that seems odd. Open disk utility - whats it say about the health of your hdd?
[13:45] <jephb> i have got issue with my system when i try to update i got these messages "W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/chris-lea/munin-plugins/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found  E: Some index files failed to download.

[13:45] <Martin_> Jeppesen: I didn't find anything like your issue... I suggests you ask the question on askubuntu
[13:46] <jephb> and this avoid me to install many programs
[13:46] <capoderra> compdoc, where does it mention health?
[13:46] <compdoc> hmm, seems a few ppl having update issues
[13:46] <jephb> i have got issue with my system when i try to update i got these messages "W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/chris-lea/munin-plugins/ubuntu/dists/precise/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found  E: Some index files failed to download.

[13:46] <compdoc> capoderra, near the SMART button
[13:46] <jephb> and this avoid me to install many programs
[13:46] <capoderra> disk is healthy
[13:46] <compdoc> good

[13:46] <Martin_> jephb: hi ! please don't spam ^^
[13:47] <Jeppesen> is ufw the default firewall on ubuntu 12.10 ? how can I allow an application to accept incoming connections? I have found out that my client is denied, because after I did "ufw disable" it worked. I didnt remember to have set up a firewall on ubuntu before my upgrade
[13:49] <capoderra> is there a way to reinstall and keep all my files?
[13:49] <compdoc> capoderra, I havent done it, but I think if you boot the dvd, theres a repair option
[13:50] <OerHeks> jephb, that PPA is old, remove it >>> https://launchpad.net/~chris-lea/+archive/munin-plugins no precise candidates
[13:50] <Martin_> afd: can you paste also the output of lsusb
[13:50] <compdoc> might be best to find out what the issue is, tho
[13:50] <capoderra> Just got another unexpected error
[13:50] <capoderra> two now
[13:51] <compdoc> capoderra, try the mailing list - lots of help there
[13:51] <capoderra> what is oneconf?
[13:51] <Martin_> afd: as you see in the logs you paste, there are a lot of errors on sdb
[13:52] <capoderra> i had an error with update notifier/apt-check.py... it still says Package could not be determined.

[13:53] <Watermelons> Hello, when I tried to boot Lubuntu today it didn't work, it seemed to be working but then it just became black and nothing happened. So I pressed Ctrl+Alt+Del and then it said something about "caught signal 15" and it restars, so now I have to run Windows 7. Anyone know what's up with that?
[13:53] <Martin_> afd: ok, this is the answer : http://askubuntu.com/questions/132100/errors-in-dmesg-test-wp-failed-assume-write-enabled
[13:54] <afd> thanks :D
[13:58] <Martin_> afd: (it seems to problem is linked to the card reader... not the sd card)
[13:59] <afd> I'm not 100% about that though as it was working in windows, then the unexpected shutdown happened, then it didn't work after reboot...
[13:59] <afd> and then didn't work in ubuntu
[13:59] <afd> I'm not sure the hardware is damaged...
[14:01] <Martin_> afd: it is not necessarily an hardware problem, but could be a driver problem at least in linux
[14:01] <Martin_> afd: you might try the two commands rmmod and modprobe from askubuntu
[14:01] <afd> strange that it's not working on either OS though
[14:01] <afd> I tried the commands from the link you sent but no joy
[14:03] <Martin_> afd: try rmmod usb-realtek then modprobe ums-realtek ss_en=0
[14:03] <afd> ok
[14:03] <Martin_> rmmod usm-realtek sorry
[14:04] <Martin_> (with sudo of course)
[14:10] <Martin_> afd: I would advice to try another sd card too
[14:10] <afd> I have another machine I can try in too...
[14:14] <aruna> Hello, how does one know where the jhbuild application is installed? It was pre-installed in my distribution.
[14:17] <OerHeks> aruna open terminal:  locate jhbuild
[14:18] <afd> Martin_: the additional ss_en=0 seemed not to do anything.... still no card showing up in nautilus or gparted
[14:18] <afd> is there a way to dd the card from the info we have? could that hepl
[14:18] <afd> help*
[14:20] <aruna> OerHeks: tried that! But many, many results show up with jhbuild.mo, jhbuild.de etc. For just jhbuild, I had "/usr/share/jhbuild",  "/usr/bin/jhbuild" and "/usr/share/gnome/help/jhbuild. "

[14:22] <capoderra> hello all, I added something that is causing errors in 12.04, and I need help removing it.  In the terminal I did "sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" and now I want to remove it.

[14:24] <Falstaff> Hello everyone
[14:26] <Guest14700> anyone can help with openstack
[14:26] <Guest14700> look into it
[14:26] <Guest14700> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5625322/
[14:27] <compdoc> capoderra, edit /etc/apt/sources.list    and see if its listed there
[14:27] <csotelo> Hi people... I think I could get banned from here after post my question here
[14:27] <csotelo> lets go
[14:28]  * compdoc gets ready for the banning....
[14:28] <k1l_> !guidelines | csotelo
[14:28] <csotelo> I usually use ubuntu for users and debain for serversw, I dont trust on ubuntu for servers, however, I usually recommends ubutnu for desktop users
[14:28] <Guest14700> anyone can help with openstack
[14:30] <e_t_> !patience
[14:30] <capoderra> compdoc, yes there are some lines... delete them?
[14:30] <csotelo> now I have a big problem cause I have a poweredge r210 server wich I can statr install with raid 0, however I have read on internet that ubuntu supports well this server, but I am not sure on trust on ubuntu  for a critical server, then cause  taht I need to know your , if were possible , some opinions.. please...
[14:31] <csotelo> k1l_, hi.. I know sorry, just I mean for my question
[14:31] <k1l_> csotelo: there is no reason to not trust ubuntu server installation
[14:31] <compdoc> capoderra, place a # in front of the lines you think, save, and then run sudo apt-get update
[14:32] <csotelo> k1l_, I have this idea sice ubuntu was based on sid debian repo,
[14:32] <capoderra> compdoc, success!  so now can I go back and delete those lines?
[14:32] <csotelo> and each day has a lot of updated
[14:32] <k1l_> csotelo: use the LTS version with extended support.
[14:32] <compdoc> capoderra, yes, should
[14:32]  * csotelo a a debian sys admin
[14:33] <aruna> Do application files have the extension .desktop?
[14:33] <k1l_> csotelo: its based on that repo until it gets the freeze.
[14:33] <csotelo> hmmm
[14:34] <capoderra> compdoc, thank you for your help!  Also, if you remember my earlier question about Skype, I think the reason why Skype would crash when people called me was because I enabled the firewall without adding a rule for Skype.  What do you think?
[14:34] <csotelo> and hwat about to much updates per days, looks like a no stable or many bugs.. sorry for the question I just want to be sure what I will do, cause it will be a critical server
[14:34] <csotelo> and I have never used ubuntu for that just debian
[14:34] <k1l_> csotelo: sry, you have no clue what ubuntu is, right?
[14:34] <compdoc> capoderra, possible. I dont use Skype or a firewall
[14:35] <k1l_> !lts | csotelo
[14:35] <csotelo> k1l_, I want to be sure that if I install ubuntu on a critical server I wont have problems at the future
[14:35] <afd> Martin_: strange. I've put the card in another machine and it's recognising it but as a 55Mb card! It's actually 16GB
[14:36] <moultonr> Is there a way to get rid of openjdk without ditching parts of Libreoffice?
[14:37] <csotelo> I probably look like a disturb man o no polite, I just be sure of that and I have never used ubuntu on servers before, I just have one installed that I have taken already working nad i have have some problems and I have to be sure on dailly updates ceause it gtes me a litle paraoid on security and stability
[14:37] <SaidKLE> Question: Is there a good documentation program that can be used to view the documentation in /usr/share/doc ?
[14:37] <SaidKLE> (not browser)
[14:37] <csotelo> k1l_, and now I probably dont have to much option on this poweredge server
[14:38] <csotelo> taht is why i am asking cause internet says that ubuntu supports raid 0 for this server
[14:38] <csotelo> but I just want to be sure
[14:38] <k1l_> csotelo: you are free to choose either debian or ubuntu. but i dont see a reason not to choose ubuntu LTS
[14:39] <k1l_> and iirc debian doesnt come with 5 years support.
[14:39] <streulma> k1l_: oh no? It's better to run Ubuntu then for servers?
[14:40] <csotelo> k1l_, just see each day to many updates on a server get me nervopus, also my no experience on critical servers with ubuntu make me no trust on ubuntu for servers
[14:40] <streulma> csotelo: right !
[14:40] <afflicto> Hey all. I'm using irssi IRC client, it shows my password which is really annoying when I'm streaming. Suggestions anyone?
[14:40] <csotelo> and having debian stable no support for raid 0 on this server, make thgink on ubuntu as server
[14:41] <k1l_> csotelo: use the LTS realease. and if there is a critical issue, i want to have updates for that asap!
[14:41] <csotelo> streulma, hi.. I dont understand you
[14:42] <streulma> csotelo: it's right that Ubuntu comes frequently with updates
[14:42] <k1l_> csotelo: i think that topic better suits into #ubuntu-discuss then in a technical support chat.
[14:42] <csotelo> k1l_, last question, thebn I could be sure trsting on you that my server will run well on raid 0 conf? juts is a questio on trying got get trust..    ( no direc question just I want to be confident on that my server )
[14:43] <k1l_> csotelo: i dont know about raid0 on that specific server hardware. i dont have that hardware
[14:43] <ANN-TechCoder> Guys, I am coding in CodeBlocks under Ubuntu. I can't find an option, to compile my current project as a Static Library. I can execute it, but i need to make it a lib file. Any idea ?
[14:44] <csotelo> any way, you give a lot of help..
[14:44] <e_t_> csotelo: Either you're using a hardware RAID controller, in which case Ubuntu (and *every* other Linux) will just see a standard block device, or you're using mdadm which is, also, largely identical between Linux distros.
[14:49] <benedict> has anyone experience about controlling fan speed on asus baords that have fan xpert and q-fan technology? http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/C60M1I/#specifications
[14:49] <benedict> fan xpert is a program for windows, but is there a way to access the corresponding interfaces also by linux?
[14:51] <csotelo> e_t_, that is my question, I have been trying to istall a debian server with raid0, I just set the conf on the bios, however when I install it, both disc continue appearing on the partition management, then I have founf that ubuntu support raid 0 and certificate my server poweredge r210, then i was trying to be sure what I am doing
[14:51]  * csotelo is something paranoid
[14:52] <e_t_> So you are using hardware raid then?
[14:52] <csotelo> yes
[14:53] <e_t_> Are you sure that the config is being saved by your RAID controller?
[15:03] <Martin_> csotelo: if the raid controller is supported, you should only see one device for the array
[15:03] <csotelo> sure, but was not onthat way, any way I have read also that is not recomendable to use raid 0

[15:29] <der_On> Hi I've updated to 12.10 from 12.04 yesterday and now am missing some ppas. I'm trying to install libxml2-dev which depends on libxml2 but have the precise version installed. I however can see that a quantal version already exists on launchpad.net but I don't know which ppa I need to add to get it.
[15:29] <aruna> OerHeks: which jhbuild worked! Thanks anyway. :)
[15:29] <knightshade> stupidBYdefault: you're welcome :)
[15:30] <stupidBYdefault> thank u
[15:31] <BenyaminL> ping
[15:31] <BluesKaj> der_On, on launchpadvthe ppa usually has a drop down to choose the correct ubuntu version to install
[15:31] <BenyaminL> ping aruna
[15:31] <BluesKaj> der_On, ppa version that is
[15:32] <der_On> https://launchpad.net/libxml2
[15:32] <BluesKaj> der , it has to be the same version as your installed OS
[15:32] <BluesKaj> der_On,^
[15:32] <der_On> BluesKaj: it seems to be in the updates repository. but I can't find the ppa's url for the update repo
[15:32] <der_On> its not listed
[15:33] <golera> Help anyone?
[15:33] <BluesKaj> you should not mix and match ubuntu release version sources or ppas , der_On
[15:33] <golera> I have a question :D
[15:34] <Pici> !ask
[15:34] <der_On> BluesKaj: I haven't. it just does not seemed to update the ppas I already had. now I can't get up to date libxml with synaptic and also can't get the deps needed for it.
[15:34] <Pici> der_On: why do you have the precise version of libxml2 installed?
[15:35] <golera> I want to install HoneyMap on my local webserver. You can find it at https://github.com/fw42/honeymap. I used nginx to host the "static" folder. I am unsure what to do with the "proxy" and "static" folders.
[15:35] <der_On> Pici: I had upgraded from precise to quantal. and it might have just left theire
[15:35] <Falstaff> What firewall do you guys recommend?
[15:35] <Pici> der_On: what does apt-cache policy libxml2   say?
[15:36] <BluesKaj> der_On, the 12.04 ppas were deleted when you upgraded to 12.10 , look here for the quantal 12.10 package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/xml2
[15:37] <der_On> Pici: well the apt-cache shows this: http://pastebin.com/C96DhQEQ
[15:38] <BenyaminL> why der_on? and why evertytime i upgrade my system, always pop-up a windows said 'precise' not curently supported, why? 12.04 is LTS right?
[15:39] <wilee-nilee> BenyaminL, Can you be more specific, that is not much infirmation.
[15:40] <redpanda> guy why ubuntu dont come with xchat preinstaled and pointing to this channel?
[15:40] <Pici> der_On: Looks like the ppa that you were using previously had a version that superceds even the version in quantal.  If do a apt-get install --reinstall libxml2 it should grab it from the quantal repositories (you might need to do an apt-get clean before hand)
[15:40] <sascha> GoNY.intern
[15:41] <BenyaminL> evertimes, after i done my update, there always a pop-up windows said 'Precise not longer supported' and were 4 option, but i always took i don't know what should i do
[15:41] <der_On> Pici: thanks. I'll try
[15:41] <BenyaminL> Hello, i have problem with my ubuntu, after update this afternoon, i face problem that i loged out from my computer after open an app, like vlc, and mixxx, the other i never try
[15:43] <anu> hey
[15:43] <anu> der ??
[15:44] <wilee-nilee> redpanda, I don't think you will get an answer here for that, just speculation, do you have a support need that what this channel is for.
[15:44] <wilee-nilee> *is
[15:45] <der_On> Pici: okay reinstalling does not work, because it can't be downloaded. seems I'm really missing a ppa here
[15:45] <redpanda> wilee-nilee: just saying. chat preconfigured is useful
[15:46] <wilee-nilee> redpanda, for you right.
[15:46] <manjush> I want to create a relational data base.I need some help
[15:47] <xastey> I recently installed ubuntu on a sata drive.. but no I want to migrate to my SSD drive that being the primary drive for booting.. putting my /home on my old drive
[15:47] <xastey> could someone point me in the right direction to do this without reinstalling my os.. thanks
[15:48] <wilee-nilee> xastey, You can use a cloner like clonezilla, or just make a installed package list to run with a install.
[15:48] <hdevalence> Hello, my install doesn't boot anymore because of a kernel bug, what should I do?
[15:48] <wilee-nilee> hdevalence, Have you tried every kernel in grub?
[15:48] <xastey> installed package list?
[15:49] <xastey> yeah could you point me to that.. didn't know I could do that
[15:49] <hdevalence> wilee-nilee: Yes
[15:49] <BenyaminL> anyone please help me :(
[15:49] <wilee-nilee> xastey, You can run a command that will list all the installed packages that can be run to install them in a fresh install.
[15:50] <minas> has anyone tried ubuntu 13.04 and compared its memory usage to 12.10?
[15:50] <hdevalence> the dmesg log is here: http://paste.kde.org/699128/ with the relevant section copied to the top
[15:50] <wilee-nilee> hdevalence, So, what is actually happening when you boot up is it crashing, be specific.
[15:51] <hdevalence> wilee-nilee: it fails into busybox due to the illegal cpu instruction while trying to mount the filesystem
[15:51] <tharvey> I continually have an issue where unity side panel freezes - often when I come back to the computer left on after a weekend or so - how can I restart it?
[15:52] <sevenforall> Is it possible to list only the default Ubuntu in GRUB/BURG?
[15:52] <wilee-nilee> hdevalence, Cool, out of my area of knowledge, however the specificities will probably get you help.
[15:53] <SonikkuAmerica> sevenforall: Did you try asking that in #grub? They might be able to help you better.
[15:53] <sevenforall> SonikkuAmerica: Didn't know that channel exists, thanks!
[15:53] <general> hi all
[15:53] <SonikkuAmerica> Yo
[15:53] <SonikkuAmerica> sevenforall: Yep. Not too many people I've talked to know about it
[15:53] <wilee-nilee> sevenforall, How many OS's are you running?
[15:54] <Guest72742> what is the defualt pass of openvas
[15:54] <sevenforall> wilee-nilee: Two, just Ubuntu and Windows
[15:54] <sevenforall> wilee-nilee: However, Ubuntu has about 4 entries, for recovery mode etc.
[15:54] <sevenforall> I hardly ever to never use those, so I'd rather not list them (yet have the available somehow)
[15:55] <Guest72742> does any buddy know openvas ?????
[15:55] <Guest72742> -_-
[15:55] <sevenforall> I, for one, do not
[15:55] <Guest72742> :p
[15:55] <wilee-nilee> sevenforall, every kernel has at least 2 line in grub, are you just seeing two kernels?
[15:56] <sevenforall> wilee-nilee: I'm not certain, I guess that's the case.
[15:56] <sevenforall> I have a single Ubuntu installation with 4 GRUB entries
[15:56] <sevenforall> I guess 2 for regular, 2 for recovery/
[15:56] <sevenforall> *?
[15:56] <Guest72742> -_-
[15:56] <Guest72742> :p
[15:56] <Guest72742> :3
[15:56] <crf> Hi my screen saver keeps activating after only a few seconds. How do I stop it?
[15:56] <der_On> Pici: okay I cant even install an older version of libxml2 as it will remove almost everything important on my system. actually I need libxml2-dev but there is only a dev package for the 2.1 not the 2.2 version of libxml2 I have
[15:57] <wilee-nilee> sevenforall, The general advice is to always have at least two kernels, ands having easy access to them is quite helpful in case you need them, the recovery may save your setup at some point.
[15:58] <wilee-nilee> sevenforall, Is this an aesthetic issue, just the look of it?
[15:58] <sevenforall> wilee-nilee: That's why I was wondering if I could just not list them / hide them, but still allow me to boot it
[15:58] <sevenforall> wilee-nilee: Basically, yes, it's nothing important in the end
[15:59] <crf> the screen keeps going to a blank screensaver after 13 seconds of inactivity
[16:01] <wilee-nilee> sevenforall, You can customize grub yes, however you want to be sure to have the skills to get what you ned done after doing this, which may include going as far as purging and reinstalling grub, or being able to chroot from a live cd to fix any problems.
[16:01] <sevenforall> wilee-nilee: That's nothing too difficult
[16:01] <BluesKaj> crf,  turn the screensaver off
[16:02] <wilee-nilee> sevenforall, Excellent, there is a gui tool called grub customizer that some use.
[16:02] <sevenforall> I'll check that out
[16:02] <sevenforall> Assuming those changes will just be forwarded to the BURG interface
[16:03] <wilee-nilee> sevenforall, here is a thread.  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1664134
[16:03] <crf> BluesKaj in the power settings, blank screen is set to never.
[16:03] <sevenforall> Aight
[16:04] <wilee-nilee> sevenforall, burg is basically grub in drag, however it is not maintained in sync with the grub releases.
[16:05] <sevenforall> wilee-nilee: I realise that. I see Grub Customizer detected I'm using BURG.
[16:05] <BluesKaj> crf, thats not the screen saver , make sure the screensaver timer isn't enabled
[16:06] <fruitloops> weirdness. fresh install on laptop, updated system via wifi, disabled wifi/networking in network manager, now wifi adapter is greyed out, reason: hardware (button) lock. There's a button, but it does nothing. and apparently rfkill is an unknown command. hows up in iwconfig as eth1 though. stumped.
[16:06] <wilee-nilee> sevenforall, There is a thread on the ubuntu forum on doing graphic customizations as well with grub, you can make a grub gui that is the way you want it, lol if you are the motivated. ;)
[16:06] <kaustubh> how do I use "Log Out" "Restart" and "Shut Down" functions in Unity like I do in windows using "Alt+F4" ??
[16:07] <sevenforall> kaustubh: Not sure what you mean, but ctrl+alt+del prompts you to log out in Ubuntu
[16:09] <kaustubh> I am looking at my desktop, and I want to shut my pc down without using mouse, how do I do it?
[16:09] <SonikkuAmerica> kaustubh: Press (but don't hold) the power button and use the arrow keys.
[16:09] <bazhang> kaustubh, does not ctrl alt T bring up a terminal?
[16:11] <sevenforall> Another one then; Is there already a known fix for the low resolution splash screen I get while booting Ubuntu after installing the AMD graphics driver for the HD 6xxx series?
[16:11] <arokux1> any idea why libqt5gui5 misses tiff support?

[16:39] <Betanu701> hamidddddd what problems?
[16:46] <com5> Hi all, I have been having a lousy time trying to add a folder to the path in ubuntu
[16:47] <Partzz> hii\
[16:47] <com5> Hi Partzz
[16:48] <Partzz>  I m trying to install Ubuntu to my sda3 partition as mentioned in this picture: http://i.stack.imgur.com/U4rtV.png I have resized the partition to get 20 Gb free space but i cannot create new partition in this space
[16:48] <Partzz> can you help me please
[16:48] <c2tarun> com5, what do you mean by adding a folder to the path?
[16:49] <gianluca_> ciao
[16:49] <c2tarun> Partzz, I think that is because you have 4 primary partitions
[16:49] <c2tarun> try to create one logical partition in that 20GB instead of primary or extended one.
[16:50] <com5> c2tarun, well I just have a bunch of scripts in a folder in my home dir and would like to be able to run them from where ever I am
[16:50] <Partzz> i cannot create anything : the create button is disabled
[16:50] <c2tarun> Partzz, try booting and starting Ubuntu from liveCD and make partition via GParted
[16:50] <com5> Partzz,  I am having a look at your pic now
[16:51] <c2tarun> com5, can you please share the output of echo $PATH and also please tell me how are you trying to add the folder into path?
[16:51] <mbduino> anyone else here experience issues with wireless connections dropping every few seconds?
[16:51] <com5> Yeah Partzz I have never seen the Ubuntu installation partition manager look like that
[16:52] <c2tarun> mbduino, I remember facing that problem, try resetting router and changing its frequency.
[16:52] <mbduino> frequency?
[16:52] <com5> Partzz,  how do you make that free space again?
[16:53] <Partzz> i resized sda3
[16:53] <mbduino> oh, channel?
[16:53] <rosarioray> XChat: /load .xchat2/budus.so
[16:53] <Partzz> to make free space
[16:53] <c2tarun> mbduino, yup
[16:53] <rosarioray>  /load .xchat2/budus.so
[16:53] <mbduino> reset as in soft-reset (reboot) or clear system settings reset?
[16:54] <c2tarun> mbduino, clear system reset, there must be a button for it somewhere on the router, you can google your model number and find the way to reset
[16:54] <c2tarun> com5, is your problem solved?
[16:54] <com5> No
[16:54] <c2tarun> com5, how are you adding your folder to path?
[16:55] <c2tarun> com5, you can try running this in terminal             export PATH=$PATH:/your/path
[16:55] <mbduino> and this is still applicable even if there are other workstations on my network not disconnecting?
[16:55] <com5> Nothing I have tried has works
[16:56] <c2tarun> mbduino, I have 3 laptops here, one tablet and 2 cellphones, and only my ubuntu machine was dropping connection. This fixed my problem.
[16:56] <com5> I have tried add a folder to .profile and .bashrc
[16:56] <c2tarun> com5, did you try what I just told?
[16:56] <mbduino> k i'll give it a shot I guess
[16:56] <mbduino> it fixed it permanently?
[16:57] <c2tarun> mbduino, I didn't faced this problem since last 3 months.
[16:57] <com5> Hey c2tarun can you use ~/ in the path?
[16:57] <chrisr> In a server environment only, are there any reasons to use ubuntu server over debian?
[16:57] <c2tarun> com5, not sure, try giving complete path as /home/user/your/path
[16:58] <com5> c2tarun, Okay, one moment
[16:58] <hamidddddddd> how can we write this :"|" in tor?
[16:59] <chrisr> Are there no opinions on that?
[17:00] <com5> c2tarun, yep tried it did work
[17:00] <c2tarun> chrisr, in any env I guess Ubuntu has slightly more packages then debian
[17:00] <com5> I must be missing something very simple
[17:00] <hamidddddddd> how can we write this :"|" in terminal?
[17:01] <c2tarun> hamidddddddd, try shift + \
[17:01] <com5> hamidddddddd, that the "pipe" symbol
[17:02] <llutz> hamidddddddd: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout    (alt-gr <   in de-layout)
[17:02] <c2tarun> Partzz, is your problem solved?
[17:03] <chrisr> c2tarun: so which would you rather run in a server environment?
[17:04] <intrader> Anyone, my laptop overheats and shutsdown once it gets to 100C (as shown by psensor temp2 trace). The laptop's fan2 sensor shows 3075 - I presume RPM. I am attempting to watch video full screen.
[17:04] <c2tarun> chrisr, I'll go for Ubuntu. (for server I'll also look for Long Term Support)
[17:05] <llutz> chrisr: use whatever you feel comfortable with, there are no technical differences. and please no polls here in the channel
[17:05] <xastey> umm great I just installed ubuntu on my new ssd drive and upon boot nothing.. no grub, not booting nothing
[17:06] <c2tarun> intrader, try jupiter
[17:06] <gavrick> Hello. I can't get weather applet 3.5.92 working with international units. Only Fahrenheit, inHg, knot and miles. How to solve that? The language is French
[17:06] <c2tarun> intrader, also try switching to Ubuntu 2D
[17:07] <chrisr> c2tarun: is more packages the only reason you'd go for it or are there others?
[17:07] <com5> I think I found my solution; http://askubuntu.com/questions/60218/how-to-add-a-directory-to-my-path   Post 24
[17:07] <mneptok> intrader: Flash video?
[17:07] <c2tarun> chrisr, actually in ubuntu I like the support I get from forum and IRC
[17:08] <wilee-nilee> xastey, Is ubuntu the only OS, and may it be you are just seeing a black screen, any blinking cursor...etc?
[17:08] <xastey> yes black screen blinking cursor.. installed from usb onto ssd drive
[17:09] <wilee-nilee> xastey, Only one OS, Ubuntu right
[17:09] <Akiva-Mobile> I am installing a legacy version of an ati driver on my friends machine, because the new drivers break the system. I also have the updates set to install automatically in the background. How can I make sure that the automatic updates do not automatically update my ati driver, thus breaking the system?
[17:09] <intrader> c2tarun, meptok, I have tried to install jupiter to no avails. and i am not using flash. A tutorial video from phonegap, or any youtube
[17:09] <xastey> wilee-nilee I do have win7 on hd2
[17:10] <c2tarun> intrader, are you using chrome?
[17:10] <xastey> but when I installed I told it to install fresh, erase everything.. then pointed the installer to my ssd drive wilee-nilee
[17:10] <intrader> c2tarun, no firefox  and I have turned off the special driver for unity
[17:10] <Betanu701> xastey: You now only have 1 system, it did boot however it is not in the proper screen
[17:11] <mneptok> intrader: YouTube is Flash in most cases.
[17:11] <mneptok> intrader: most web video is Flash
[17:11] <Betanu701> xastey: try hitting ctrl alt f2
[17:11] <c2tarun> intrader, try switching to Ubuntu2D
[17:11] <xastey> so Betanu701 what are the step to fix this problem
[17:11] <xastey> ok I'll try that Betanu701
[17:11] <Akiva-Mobile> ... big news; I officially hate amd/ati for causing me this headache.
[17:11] <wilee-nilee> xastey, Cool sounds like a graphic driver issue, take a look here for the nomodeset per session boot, if you get in check for a driver needed maybe a update will take care of it.  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132
[17:11] <Akiva-Mobile> fucking guys, can't even open source their driver which sucks anyways!
[17:12] <mneptok> intrader: so my suspicion is that you are using the Flash plugin, which is a known CPU hog. set your YouTube preferences to prefer HTML5 video
[17:12] <k1l> !language | Akiva-Mobile
[17:12] <xastey> I was just reading that wilee-nilee .. funny how I had ubuntu installed on this before and didn't have to do that
[17:12] <xastey> but let me try what Betanu701 said
[17:12] <xastey> Betanu701 ctrl+alt+f2 does nothing
[17:12] <Akiva-Mobile> sorry ubottu...
[17:12] <hamidddddddd> what this means in termminal "sudo chown $USER -Rv ~/.tor-browser/"?
[17:13] <intrader> c2tarun, how, I have disabled all proprietary drivers
[17:13] <wilee-nilee> xastey, Funny thing about installing that not every driver is loaded at times if you install without the install updates box in the install gui, it can be as simple as not being connected to the web.
[17:13] <c2tarun> hamidddddddd, try executing man chown in terminal, you'll understand what chown does
[17:13] <llutz> hamidddddddd: read "man chown" (it will change ownership of the given file to $USER (you most likely)
[17:13] <Betanu701> xastey: ok, try what wilee is said, if that doesn't work, do you have another machine or a phone?
[17:13] <c2tarun> intrader, are you on Ubuntu 12.04?
[17:14] <bosyi> hi
[17:14] <xastey> umm pressing the shift key didn't work wilee-nilee
[17:14] <llutz> s/file/dir/
[17:14] <bosyi> is there a dev (ubuntu-next) channel?
[17:14] <mneptok> bosyi: #ubuntu-devel
[17:14] <hamidddddddd> u mean i must write the username in USER place? llutz
[17:14] <xastey> well wilee-nilee I installed the same way, make sure I was connected to the web and checked both "install other packages" boxes
[17:14] <k1l> bosyi: #ubuntu-devel but make sure to read the topic
[17:15] <intrader> c2tarun, yes, ubuntu 12.04. Problems started with ubuntu 11.04 (unity)
[17:15] <llutz> hamidddddddd: no
[17:15] <Betanu701> xastey: does the machine have an IP address that you can try to ssh to?
[17:15] <xastey> let me see
[17:15] <llutz> hamidddddddd: "echo $USER"   in a terminal will show you what that variable will be substituted with
[17:15] <c2tarun> intrader, then simply log-off and above your username you'll find a small wrench symbol, click it and select Ubuntu 2D and then enter your password
[17:15] <wilee-nilee> xastey, Try revering the HD being read first in the bios, if you did not specifically make sure in the manual install gui that grub was paointed at the HD not a partition or the windows HD.
[17:15] <wilee-nilee> *reversing
[17:15]  * donttrustem has had enough of ubuntu 12.10 .... friggin nvidia support sucks
[17:16] <intrader> mneptok, that is worthile a try. where are the youtube preferences?
[17:16]  * donttrustem has rebuilt the box 4 times today and still no further forward
[17:17] <mneptok> intrader: https://www.youtube.com/html5
[17:17] <hamidddddddd> chown: missing operand after `/.tor-browser/' llutz
[17:17] <k1l> donttrustem: make sure the kernel headers are installed
[17:17] <xastey> wilee-nilee I'm going to give it another install
[17:18] <donttrustem> k1l:thank will do that on this install
[17:18] <llutz> hamidddddddd: typo, type command correctly again
[17:19] <wilee-nilee> xastey, If you like, it may be as simple as loading grub in the right mbr, ot changing the HD order.  Make sure that you point grub to that HD and have it first read in the bios.
[17:19] <OerHeks> hamidddddddd, what tor guide are you following?
[17:19] <xastey> wilee-nilee I'm booting into my liveusb
[17:19] <xastey> so maybe I can check from there?
[17:19] <donttrustem> k1l:I can only do this after the install
[17:20] <hamidddddddd> OerHeks: http://www.upubuntu.com/2013/03/tor-browser-bundle-2325-4-released-with.html
[17:20] <k1l> donttrustem: when installing the nvidia-current kame sure its not failing because the lack of headers
[17:20] <wilee-nilee> xastey, YOU can run a script that will kick out info that would be helpful, can you confirm though that the SSD is first in the bios.
[17:20] <hamidddddddd> OerHeks: i cant run this part:sudo chown $USER -Rv ~/.tor-browser/
[17:20] <tehfox> Hello there, I'm having problems with slow DNS resolution...
[17:21] <xastey> wilee-nilee its first in boot order yes
[17:21] <llutz> hamidddddddd: sudo chown -Rv  $USER ~/.tor-browser/
[17:21] <donttrustem> k1l: possibly ... I will install the headers after the install and then switch to the nvidia current
[17:21] <OerHeks> hamidddddddd, on that page, read comment #1
[17:21] <Betanu701> xastey: do you know where you installed grub to? was it on that hd or another one?
[17:22] <Betanu701> xastey: Also as wilee has been saying try to boot with the other harddrives, maybe that will pull it up
[17:22] <OerHeks> hamidddddddd, do you have that folder ~/.tor-browser/ ? ( it is hidden ctrl + H )
[17:22] <xastey> Betanu701 I wasn't given a choice
[17:22] <xastey> I just choosed my ssd harddrive and install
[17:23] <hamidddddddd> OerHeks: how can i know?
[17:23] <xastey> I choose Erase Everything-> Picked my ssd drive -> install
[17:23] <wilee-nilee> xastey, How old is this computer I want to make sure you don't have UEFI setup
[17:23] <xastey> brand new
[17:23] <intrader> c2tarun, with ununtu2d I get internal error from ubuntu
[17:23] <xastey> lenvono t530.. just got it
[17:23] <xastey> no uefi
[17:23] <wilee-nilee> xastey, W7 or W8?
[17:23] <xastey> Like I said.. I had ubuntu installed already on this laptop
[17:23] <xastey> w7
[17:23] <donttrustem> k1l: do I just install the headers then select the nvidia current from the additional drivers
[17:23] <xastey> all was working fine for weeks
[17:24] <leforce> Hello, I have recently installed a ubuntu on a brand new HDD and I have the error "The system is running in low-graphics mode" and my keyboard and mouse is disabled so I can't procred
[17:24] <xastey> I wanted to install my ssd drive.. so though I would just reinstall.. already backedup my packages and whatnot
[17:24] <leforce> Correction, Proceed*
[17:24] <xastey> let me boot into the other drive
[17:24] <wilee-nilee> xastey, So the first install did not include any UEFI tasks?
[17:24] <xastey> maybe thats set as the primary
[17:25] <xastey> correct wilee-nilee
[17:25] <xastey> but let me boot from drive 0
[17:25] <xastey> ssd is drive 1 but 0 in boot order
[17:25] <xastey> maybe thats why
[17:25] <Siecje> Is it possible to send an email using php's send mail function on Ubuntu without having a domain name?
[17:25] <intrader> mneptok, I have looked at the html5 page and there is a 'Join the HTML5 trial'. Is there an option I don't see?
[17:26] <xastey> well hot damn
[17:26] <hamidddddddd> OerHeks: bash: /home/hamid/.tor-browser/: Is a directory
[17:26] <xastey> you guys were right
[17:26] <xastey> hehe
[17:26] <mike_m> Siecje, yes
[17:26] <llutz> hamidddddddd: sudo chown -Rv  $USER ~/.tor-browser/
[17:26] <wilee-nilee> xastey, Grub might have been put in the W7's mbr, no biggie we can fix that and even reload the MS bootloader back in and grub in the SSD
[17:26] <mike_m> it will send from localhost@
[17:26] <xastey> there goes my gub.. shows up ubuntu 12.10 rither with my old ubuntu install
[17:26] <llutz> whyever that dir wouldn't be owned by you already
[17:26] <Siecje> mike_m: ok so what package do I need?
[17:26] <mike_m> postfix
[17:27] <Siecje> ok I have that installed
[17:27] <xastey> so wilee-nilee should I just keep it as is? any problems keeping it like this
[17:27] <OerHeks> llutz, same thought, now it is sure that folder exists.
[17:27] <xastey> my ssd isn't the primary drive as it stands right now
[17:27] <xastey> but I will use it as my primary drive for ubuntu
[17:27] <wilee-nilee> xastey, ASs is means the windows HD has the grub boot?
[17:27] <wilee-nilee> *as
[17:27] <xastey> thats correct wilee-nilee
[17:28] <xastey> so heres my setup
[17:28] <llutz> hamidddddddd: "echo $USER"  what it your username?
[17:28] <hamidddddddd> OerHeks: it changed ownership but still not working
[17:28] <xastey> ssd= new ubuntu install , hdd= old ubuntu install + win 7 and a few other recover partations
[17:28] <leforce> Hello, I have recently installed a ubuntu on a brand new HDD and I have the error "The system is running in low-graphics mode" and my keyboard and mouse is disabled so I can't proceed
[17:29] <OerHeks> hamidddddddd, there is no manual with that, maybe you need to logout/login to let tor browser take effect ?
[17:29] <wilee-nilee> xastey, Personally I would want the loader for the OS in the mbr of the HD it is in, however I know how to do that easily, your choice, if it works now the only real issue is being able to boot windows without grub
[17:29] <lisandrop05> hello to every one
[17:29] <Siecje> mike_m: since I don't have a domain name what do I put for host/
[17:29] <Siecje> hostname
[17:30] <lisandrop05> I'm getting this error when I import a forder to the subversion
[17:30] <lisandrop05> http://pastebin.com/NdPcWDh4
[17:30] <llutz> Siecje: who do you want to send mails to if you don't have a valid domain-name? no serious mailserver will accept mails from you
[17:31] <intrader> mneptok, I have also rebooted in 2D mode. - I don't know how to tell you tube to go html5. The settings context menu in you tube does not offer html5
[17:31] <wilee-nilee> xastey, Make sure you have the recovery disk you can make in windows and backup everything. If you have a windows install disc that is fine as well.
[17:32] <Siecje> llutz: this is an internal website and it is needs to send emails to its users
[17:32] <moe_> hello
[17:32] <moe_> i need help with trim on 12.10 please

[17:36] <h00k> Let
[17:36] <moe_> i'll live without trim help
[17:36] <xastey> Yeah I have thoses wilee-nilee
[17:37] <LuizAngioletti> howdy!
[17:37] <xastey> I'm going to switch my ssd drive to primary and just reinstall.. I'll address fixing windows later .. I dont even boot into it now
[17:38] <LuizAngioletti> xastey: is it a windows 8 UEFI problem?
[17:39] <Siecje> llutz:  mike_m: http://bpaste.net/show/0ajfbQbQxbz0vj8WFdlE/ so what do I pur for System mail name:
[17:39] <LuizAngioletti> (I got just in...)
[17:39] <xastey> no LuizAngioletti.. I had that with my other hd
[17:39] <LuizAngioletti> xastey: ok. I was going to tell you to be cautious, but hey.. I may be late. =P
[17:40] <LuizAngioletti> or... "maybe I'm late".
[17:40] <LuizAngioletti> =P
[17:40] <pz> 1
[17:40] <lisandrop05> any ones who know about svn?
[17:41] <lisandrop05> I'm getting an error
[17:41] <hamiddddddd> i loged out still not working
[17:41] <pz> im going to learn using irc(irrelevant)
[17:41] <lisandrop05> http://pastebin.com/NdPcWDh4
[17:41] <lisandrop05> there is a paste
[17:41] <wilee-nilee> xastey, Again, your choice, but that is an easy fix, and it would be really helpful for you to know how to do it.
[17:42] <llutz> Siecje: how do you access the webserver? if it has an fqdn, use the domainname from there
[17:43] <hamiddddddd> i have trouble with tor pleaaaaaaaaase help
[17:44] <polizois> does anyone know if i can download files via telnet??
[17:44] <dr_willis> polizois:  use scp - since telnet gives you a command line. ;) or kermit
[17:44] <histo> hamiddddddd: you download the tor browser extract it and run it.
[17:45] <histo> polizois: What are you trying to do?
[17:45] <hamiddddddd> histo: i did these all but its not working
[17:45] <histo> hamiddddddd: Can you elaboorate on not working?
[17:46] <Betanu701> anyone know anything about analog tv tuners?
[17:46] <polizois> histo: i have a dreambox and i want to login via telnet and modify a file
[17:47] <hamiddddddd> when i run the tor browser theres a massage 'unexpected exit'.
[17:47] <histo> polizois: any reason you can't use ssh?
[17:47] <histo> !anyone
[17:47] <hamiddddddd> histo: when i run the tor browser theres a massage 'unexpected exit'.and my mozila brings notihng
[17:47] <Siecje> llutz: I access it with the internal IP address the site is running through localhost
[17:47] <alainus> is it safe to sync the home folder with another pc that has the same applications installed, so that all the configurations sync ?
[17:47] <histo> hamiddddddd: possibly try a different version.
[17:47] <Betanu701> lol ok sorry ubottu Thanks
[17:47] <llutz> polizois: "telnet dreambox" gives you terminalaccess, there you edit the file (use whatever editor the dreambox brings)
[17:48] <donttrustem> k1l: are you still here
[17:48] <hamiddddddd> histo: its the last version
[17:48] <llutz> Siecje: then use "localhost.localdomain"
[17:49] <histo> alainus: Why not just sync the specific file for settings rather than the entire home.
[17:49] <xastey> wilee-nilee I may have to do it still, to have grub boot my w7 install from the second drive
[17:49] <llutz> Siecje: btw it would be easier to use nullmailer, ssmtp, msmtp instead of a full featured MTA like postfix (though that also will do the job)
[17:49] <histo> hamiddddddd: try an older one. or ask them for support.
[17:49] <Betanu701> I have an 2 tv tuners both hybrids and both are claimed to work in linux. The digital side works like a charm, but I get no signal on the analog side, I have updated all the drivers and modprobed to see that they actually are running them. any advice?
[17:49] <ubuntuwants> Hey guys, I just want to know how to find my NTFS so I can install Windows and remove Ubuntu
[17:50] <Siecje> llutz: what is localdomain? Which of those packages do you recommend
[17:50] <polizois> llutz: i didnt know i could do that...do you know what editor it features???
[17:50] <Betanu701> ubutuwants: do you have a NTFS partion?
[17:50] <histo> ubuntuwants: In the file browser (nautilus) you should be able to see your other partitions.
[17:50] <llutz> polizois: nope, ask the dreambox guys please
[17:51] <wilee-nilee> xastey, grub can be loaded to the SSD's mbr from the live cd, or you can use a tool like supergrub to just boot Ubuntu and do it from the desktop. The windows bootloader can be reloaded to it's mbr with the recovery disc.
[17:51] <llutz> Siecje: ssmtp worked fine for me, but all other should do too
[17:51] <hamiddddddd> i had the older one histo. its filtered in my country, no other way?
[17:51] <alainus> histo, that's another option. i was just wondering if i could make it faster by just syncing the entire directory
[17:51] <histo> hamiddddddd: Why would the newer one not be filtered?
[17:51] <ubuntuwants> Betanu701: I installed Ubuntu 12.10 over a corrupted Windows 7 and now I want to install Vista but can't since the NTFS is gone. I am sure I have the NTFS Partition is here.
[17:51] <histo> alainus: How often does the "configuration" file change?
[17:51] <xastey> cool.. so what I'm doing wilee-nilee is, first I switched my ssd to be hdd0 (not just in boot order) and my old hdd is hdd1
[17:52] <polizois> llutz: ok thanks
[17:52] <intrader> mneptok, I have started the browser in html5 test mode. See no difference in heat generation in full screen. psensor temp2 shoots up immediately
[17:52] <histo> ubuntuwants: /j #windows
[17:52] <xastey> now I'm going to just reinstall .. its a quick install anyways... then I'll address fixing adding win7 to grub on my ssd drive
[17:52] <Betanu701> ubuntuwants: use gparted to see if it is there
[17:52] <xastey> which will boot win7 from my second drive
[17:52] <wilee-nilee> ubuntuwants, can you run sudo fdisk -l and pastebin the text and give us the url.
[17:52] <hamiddddddd> histo: i downloaded it from ubuntu server
[17:53] <histo> hamiddddddd: What's filtered in your country?
[17:53] <ubuntuwants> I guess I have formatted my NTFS or something. Seems terminal can't detect my NTFS
[17:53] <llutz> Siecje: erm wait, you just need local delivery (all users on your local machine)? then msmtp might be better
[17:53] <alainus> histo, some change very often (filezilla) and some not so much. i want to use my laptop as a terminal when I need to go away from the pc and work elsewhere, so I don't care if they're exactly equal in configuration and files. I know that you can use Unison to sync these files over ssh, so i was thinking of just syncing the entire ~
[17:53] <wilee-nilee> xastey, Cool just make sure tat grub in the custom install is pointed at the SSD mbr, probably is sdb
[17:54] <wilee-nilee> *that
[17:54] <Siecje> llutz: no I need to send emails to people
[17:54] <Siecje> not users on my machine
[17:54] <xastey> will do wilee-nilee thanks a lot for the help so far.. you too Betanu701 thanks guys
[17:54] <histo> alainus: I don't see why you couldn't do that.
[17:54] <Betanu701> No problem good luck
[17:55] <ubuntuwants> How to add Unity dock in Linux distro? Hmmm.
[17:55] <histo> ubuntuwants: Are you trying to install windows again?
[17:55] <wilee-nilee> xastey, you can check for the ssd's info with gparted or in the terminal to just confirm it is sdb, I would.
[17:55] <ubuntuwants> @histo just wanna ask. I installed on my aunt's computer and she said she does not like Ubuntu and wants Windows back.
[17:55] <xastey> no its sda right now wilee-nilee
[17:55] <xastey> previous it was sdb
[17:56] <xastey> but after I switched the hd slots (took laptop apart) its showing ssd as sda
[17:56] <wilee-nilee> xastey, Cool, the important part is that you know for sure, enjoy. ;)
[17:56] <histo> ubuntuwants: then use the windows cd and install winblows again.  Perhaps you should show her linux mint first. If you need help installing windows /join #windows
[17:56] <mike_m> Siecje, can you start Postfix? sudo /etc/init.d/postfix restart
[17:56] <histo> xastey: do not rely on /dev/sdX naming. Use uuid's
[17:57] <Betanu701> ubuntuwants: or you could try showing her linux zorin it is like windows
[17:57] <JanDjin> Hello, guys. How I can disable colors in "gnome-terminal"?
[17:57] <ubuntuwants> @histro. I will try to even if NTFS is gone. LOL.
[17:57] <xastey> O I will, I have to mount my /home from my second drive
[17:57] <histo> JanDjin: edit profile
[17:57] <xastey> but I checked, its the ssd drive I'm installing to.. should be all good now
[17:57] <wilee-nilee> histo, He is just pointing to the correct mbr with grub on a install.
[17:57] <JanDjin> histo: And what exactly should I edit?
[17:58] <JanDjin> give me some hint, please?
[17:58] <ubuntuwants> Ubuntu should have a feature where Windows programs work without WINE or PlayOnLinux. Just saying...
[17:59] <histo> JanDjin: Probably the "colors" tab would be a hint
[17:59] <wilee-nilee> ubuntuwants, Your new to this linux thing huh, that makes no sense. ;)
[17:59] <intrader> mneptok, in 2D mode and html5 it seems to be worse. Event a small screen video shoots temp2 to 92C and stays there. Full screen, no way
[17:59] <datsmoida> anyone know why modifying resolv.conf would have a huge impact on network speed ?
[18:00] <Betanu701> ubuntuwants: that would also open us up to alot more harm to our systems
[18:00] <ubuntuwants> @wilee I only tried Ubuntu for 2 weeks (aunt's computer). All this while I'm on the 8.
[18:00] <histo> ubuntuwants: What windows program do you need?
[18:01] <histo> datsmoida: should anything placed in resolv.conf would get ignored due to resolvconf package and network manager
[18:01] <ubuntuwants> @histo. Tons. TeamViewer, Bandicam, Windows games like Slender, and stuff
[18:01] <histo> s/should/shouldn't
[18:02] <histo> ubuntuwants: well teamviewer has a linux applications, the others you'd have to check wine's appdb
[18:02] <histo> !appdb | ubuntuwants
[18:02] <leforce> Hello, I have recently installed a ubuntu on a brand new HDD and I have the error "The system is running in low-graphics mode" and my keyboard and mouse is disabled so I can't proceed
[18:02] <histo> !nomodeset | leforce
[18:02] <ubuntuwants> thanks people. guess I'll have to head over to #windows now
[18:02] <Betanu701> ubuntuwants try this system http://www.zorin-os.com/
[18:02] <wilee-nilee> ubuntuwants, Be careful in adding vista to a W8 setup as a dual boot, the bootloader will entangle and you will have some real fun if you remove one of the OS's.  This can be avoided though. NOt to mention that the W8 is UEFI.
[18:03] <leforce> ubottu, if it makes any difference I have a AMD A-3400 using the integrated GPU
[18:03] <ubuntuwants> Zorin looks like WIndows. Cool. But my aunt wants the real deal. LOL.
[18:04] <histo> JanDjin: do you mean you don't want any colors from ls etc...?
[18:04] <histo> ubuntuwants: sucks to be her
[18:05] <Guest24013> I want to set my wificard to master mode, so I can connect my android phone. I was wondering, how can I do that if my device is "02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x / AR542x Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 04)"
[18:07] <Guest24013> I tried searching and I followed a guide on ubuntu wiki, but it asked me to download madwifi-tools and linux-restricted-moduls but I could find such packages. Any ideas?
[18:08] <wilee-nilee> Guest24013, Your android setup does not have a wifi setup to just pull from the router?
[18:09] <Guest24013> wilee-nilee, I don't have a router I am trying to use my USB modem and create WiFi from my laptop
[18:09] <mangeman> halo apa kabar semua nya/??
[18:10] <dr_willis> !ics
[18:10] <wilee-nilee> Guest24013, So you are using ethernet I see.
[18:10] <SwedeMike> !id | mangeman
[18:11] <Guest24013> wilee-nilee, Yes any ideas how can I set my wlan card to master mode?
[18:12] <wilee-nilee> Guest24013, I have never done this but in the network manager in the wifi tab is a "use as hotspot option.
[18:13] <wilee-nilee> Guest24013, I don't know what master mode is.
[18:14] <Guest24013> wilee-nilee, Hotspot is adhoc connection I think and that type of connections isn't supported by my stock android rom.
[18:14] <wilee-nilee> Guest24013, here is a link, not sure other then pointing to links. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/MasterMode

[18:16] <Brunell> I have created an account and now I have to start the sync
[18:16] <bazhang> Brunell, try #ubuntuone
[18:16] <Brunell> ok will do thanks
[18:17] <intrader> mneptok, in 2D mode, when I plug in my iPod  I get unable to open /document
[18:20] <SonhadorPR> hello all! "mid-term" newbie here. I installed VirtualBox in *.deb  pkg, from  www.oracle.com, because the version in the Ubuntu Software Center is outdated. I have installed the 4.2.8. I want to upgrade to the new 4.2.10, but I can't seem to upgrade, nor uninstal the prev version. What can I do?
[18:20] <gustav_> How do I find the audio recording unit? My laptop has an internal mic and pavucontrol seems to find it ok.
[18:21] <Betanu701> I have 2 TV tuners, a kworld 150, and a haupauge 950q. I have been able to get both cards to work, though just with the digital side.
[18:21] <Betanu701> I can not get anything to make it receive any analog stations. Neither of them get analog.
[18:21] <Betanu701> Things I have done,
[18:21] <Betanu701> I have upgraded the firmware of the cards of the v4l2 (or vl42 I forget which).
[18:21] <Betanu701> Modprobed the devices to make sure it is using and detecting the cards.
[18:21] <FloodBot1> Betanu701: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:21] <Betanu701> I have tried this on everything from 11.10-13.04
[18:22] <wilee-nilee> SonhadorPR, Can you describe what the problem is with just installing the upgrade, details are important here.
[18:23] <tgm4883> Betanu701, what are you using to try and tune channels?
[18:23] <Betanu701> command line scantv
[18:24] <tgm4883> Betanu701, and I'm assuming you actually have analog stations to tune?
[18:24] <Betanu701> yes I do, I am using basic cable US and they deliver most channels 2-70 via analog
[18:25] <tgm4883> Betanu701, wow, there are still cable companies transmitting analog? What provider?
[18:25] <Betanu701> Time Warner,\
[18:27] <SonhadorPR> wilee-nilee: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5625963/
[18:27] <Betanu701> I prefer the digital stations, but sadly the ones i want are analog
[18:28] <SonhadorPR> rafaelsoaresbr: oi!
[18:29] <tgm4883> Betanu701, I've  not used scantv, is it throwing any errors?
[18:29] <tgm4883> support for the 950q seems to be built into the kernel;
[18:29] <LuizAngioletti> SonhadorPR: you could simply download the new .deb package and install it.
[18:29] <SonhadorPR> I did...that's where I'm getting the error msg.
[18:29] <Betanu701> tgm4883: no errors just no stations avalible.
[18:30] <BluesKaj> analog , heh , we still have them in markets under 250K population , the small market stations cried poverty when it came to switching to digital
[18:30] <SuperLag> I've got a PDF that I want to take one page from, and make another PDF with. How would I do that?
[18:30] <Betanu701> BlueKaj: that describes my area lol
[18:30] <tgm4883> SonhadorPR, when you did the 'apt-get remove virtualbox', what was the error message
[18:31] <LuizAngioletti> SonhadorPR: have you used dpkg for uninstall before?
[18:31] <tgm4883> Betanu701, any error messages in dmesg regarding the tunes?
[18:31] <tgm4883> tuners*
[18:31] <LuizAngioletti> or package management at all?
[18:31] <SonhadorPR> wilee-nilee: in the command line, all I get is blanks. Like just pressing the enter key. Nothing happened
[18:32] <Betanu701> tgm4883: should I run dmesg after the scan?
[18:32] <tgm4883> Betanu701, no, just after plugging in the 950q
[18:32] <LuizAngioletti> SonhadorPR: dpkg -l | grep ^i | grep virtualbox
[18:32] <SonhadorPR> wilee-nilee: I found the instructions for command line removal in: http://www.answeredubuntu.com/22200/how_to_uninstall_a_deb_package#sthash.QYZ1RcB9.dpbs but no such luck. The dpkg gives me error msgs...the other one doesn't
[18:32] <LuizAngioletti> if it returns nothing then it isn't installed anymore
[18:33] <tgm4883> LuizAngioletti, IIRC, the virtualbox packages are named Virtualbox
[18:33] <tgm4883> LuizAngioletti, so probably need a grep -i virtualbox
[18:33] <SonhadorPR> wilee-nilee: let me try that one.
[18:33] <Betanu701> tgm4883: not that I am aware, give me a sec and I will look it over again
[18:34] <superdo> hey, recommended desktop twitter widget?
[18:34] <LuizAngioletti> tgm4883: you're right. =)
[18:34] <Dry_Lips> Hi! I've got some problems getting my ATI drivers to work. (Manually downloaded and installed from ATI)
[18:34] <adamk> Dry_Lips: That's really the bad way to install the drivers...
[18:34] <LuizAngioletti> SonhadorPR: fix it as tgm4883 mentioned, before you run it. =)
[18:34] <Dry_Lips> When I run sudo "aticonfig --adapter=all --odgt", I get "ERROR - X needs to be running to perform AMD Overdrive(TM) commands"
[18:34] <wilee-nilee> SonhadorPR, sounds like you have it fixed I would just run sudo apt-get remove virtualbox-4.2.8  However the download from the vbox website should upgrade it. Did ou instal dkms?
[18:34] <Dry_Lips> adamk: I need to do it that way, I'm setting it up to mine bitcoins
[18:35] <Dry_Lips> adamk: I followed this tutorial: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Gw7YPYgMgNNU42skibULbJJUx_suP_CpjSEdSi8_z9U/edit?pli=1#
[18:35] <SonhadorPR> LuizAngioletti: I don't understand. What are you ssaying, what I am supposed to do?
[18:35] <tgm4883> SonhadorPR, run "dpkg -l | grep ^i | grep -i virtualbox"
[18:36] <SonhadorPR> I just did that...it went blank...like itting return..no error msg.
[18:36] <SonhadorPR> Let me try re-installing again.
[18:36] <adamk> Dry_Lips: I fail to see why mining for bitcoins requires you to manualy install fglrx when it's packaged nicely for Ubuntu...  But, whatever.  The error you message seems pretty clear...  You need X to run to perform that particular command.
[18:37] <Dry_Lips> adamk: why don't X run then?
[18:37] <adamk> Dry_Lips: I have no idea. This is the first time you mentioned that X won't run...
[18:38] <Dry_Lips> adamk: well, I have booted to the desktop
[18:38] <adamk> Dry_Lips: So X is running then?
[18:38] <Dry_Lips> yeah, it must be
[18:38] <tgm4883> Dry_Lips, what video card?
[18:39] <Dry_Lips> ATI HD 2600
[18:39] <SonhadorPR> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5625996/
[18:39] <adamk> Dry_Lips: Well, you're on your own then. :-)  AMD pushed pre HD5xxx GPUs to the legacy driver, and I have on experience with that.
[18:40] <adamk> I'd question whether it can even do what you want it to.
[18:40] <SonhadorPR> using apt-get remove virtualbox, I get: Couldn't find any package by regex 'virtualbox-4.2_4.2.8-83876~Ubuntu~precise_i386
[18:40] <LuizAngioletti> SonhadorPR: it isn't quite the same error message. =)
[18:40] <Dry_Lips> adamk: aha... So I would have to install the legacy driver?
[18:40] <Dry_Lips> adamk: but I get your point, though, it's an old card
[18:40] <wilee-nilee> SonhadorPR, I just ran a upgrade a couple of days ago with virtualbox, I believe I had to remove 4.2.8 first as well so run this to remove it then install the new one.  sudo apt-get remove virtualbox-4.2
[18:40] <tgm4883> Dry_Lips, well, you have to install a driver package that actually has drivers for your card
[18:41] <Siecje> mike_m: I can start postfix
[18:41] <adamk> Dry_Lips: Personally I wouldn't even use fglrx on that card, I'd stick with the open source drivers.  But I have on idea if those drivers can do what you want.
[18:41] <tgm4883> SonhadorPR, that is because you are running it from the same directory that you downloaded the virtualbox package to
[18:41] <wilee-nilee> SonhadorPR, Always include the commands in these pastes as wil give us everything you see in the termional.
[18:42] <wilee-nilee> *terminal
[18:42] <tgm4883> Dry_Lips, I'm unsure if the card you are using supports what you want to do even with the proprietary driveres
[18:42] <Betanu701> tgm4883: I do not see any errors, I could be wrong so i posted the dmesg http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/5626008/
[18:42] <scooby> how do I change the file that is displayed as the spash screen while the system is coming up?
[18:42] <Dry_Lips> adamk: basically I would need OpenCL support & the ATI SDK
[18:43] <SonhadorPR> I just got a crash report...trying to uninstall the virtualbox 4.2 gamve me different errors
[18:43] <Dry_Lips> tgm4883: I'm not sure either, this is more of an experiment
[18:43] <SonhadorPR> apparently I was able to remove it...let me try re-installing.
[18:43] <tgm4883> Dry_Lips, a quick google search say opencl isn't supported on the hd2600
[18:43] <wilee-nilee> SonhadorPR, you might try the #vbox channel as well.
[18:43] <Dry_Lips> tgm4883: duh, too bad! :(
[18:44] <SonhadorPR> Thank you guys: I will, if all else fails!!
[18:44] <Dry_Lips> tgm4883, adamk, well, thanks for your help anyway! Much appreciated!
[18:44] <tgm4883> Betanu701, looks like something wonky is going on there
[18:45] <Betanu701> tgm4883: how so? Please enlighten me :)
[18:46] <tgm4883> Betanu701, at the end, it keeps uploading the firmware. Repeatedly, about every 3 seconds
[18:46] <tgm4883> Betanu701, the kworld one does seem to be having issues
[18:47] <tgm4883> I wonder if there is a driver conflict. Maybe remove the kworld card
[18:47] <Betanu701> OK let me try that
[18:48] <Peyam> hi
[18:48] <Peyam> When I try to update my system i get this error massege : Depends: linux-image-extra-3.5.0-26-generic but it is not installed
[18:48] <Peyam> what should I do
[18:49] <SonhadorPR> OK!! Apparently I WAS able to install the VB 4.2.10 Thanks to Wilee-Nilee, LuizAngioletti and tgm4883
[18:49] <wilee-nilee> Peyam, What release are you running?
[18:49] <Peyam> wilee-nilee: xubuntu 12.10
[18:49] <wilee-nilee> SonhadorPR, Cool, have fun. ;)
[18:49] <SonhadorPR> :-D
[18:50] <wilee-nilee> Peyam, You using the terminal, and is there any not going to install info?
[18:50] <Peyam> wilee-nilee: I update with update manager
[18:51] <Peyam> It is the only info I get
[18:51] <wilee-nilee> Peyam, Run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and see if that gets you running.
[18:51] <robin0800> Peyam: it sounds like the pae problem
[18:52] <wood> salut
[18:52] <Betanu701> tgm4883: ok removed it still loading multiple times
[18:52] <Peyam> wilee-nilee: robin0800: The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[18:52] <Peyam>  linux-image-generic : Depends: linux-image-extra-3.5.0-26-generic but it is not installed
[18:52] <tgm4883> Betanu701, have you checked if the digital side of the card works?
[18:52] <robin0800> Peyam: it sounds like the pae problem thats what i MEANT GOOGLE IT
[18:53] <Betanu701> tgm4883: yup they both work
[18:53] <Peyam> robin0800: I googled it and it asked me to add some PPA but nothing happened
[18:54] <Peyam> wilee-nilee: any advice?
[18:54] <robin0800> Peyam: you have to reboot
[18:54] <tgm4883> wtf?
[18:54] <wilee-nilee> Peyam, well hopefully others will know more here, there is a bit of info missing here such as have you messed with the sources.list and other stuff.  And better responses then google it lol.
[18:54] <tgm4883> robin0800, why would he have to reboot?
[18:54] <Betanu701> I KNOW!!!
[18:54] <bazhang> robin0800, stop giving wrong advice
[18:54] <Peyam> wilee-nilee: it is a fresh installation. robin0800: okej I will
[18:54] <Peyam> thanks
[18:54] <tgm4883> !info linux-image-extra-3.5.0-26-generic
[18:55] <robin0800> because the ppa is a hack and needs to run at boot
[18:55] <tgm4883> I think that is likely the issue
[18:55] <tgm4883> robin0800, that makes no sense
[18:55] <bazhang> robin0800, thats not correct. stop now
[18:55] <wilee-nilee> tgm4883, I wondered if that kernel was in quantal as well.
[18:56] <Betanu701> tgm4883: was that kernel to me or to robin?
[18:56] <tgm4883> wilee-nilee, i'm not sure why he's got something depending on it, probably some PPA he added
[18:56] <tgm4883> Betanu701, to peyam actually
[18:56] <wilee-nilee> tgm4883, Exactly hence the sources.list mention. ;)
[18:56] <Betanu701> tgm4883: ok lol, I was going to say I am on 3.8 :D
[18:56] <tgm4883> wilee-nilee, it's too bad he listened to bad advice and rebooted
[18:57] <bazhang> wilee-nilee, sources.list.d I hope you mean
[18:57] <tgm4883> Betanu701, I'm not sure what the issue is with yours. I've not used analog in a long time, and don't have either of those cards
[18:57] <wilee-nilee> bazhang, I load stuff to the .list but yeah that or ,list.d
[18:58] <Betanu701> tgm4883: That's ok, Thanks for trying, been working on this for a couple months
[18:58] <tgm4883> Betanu701, I'd try #linuxtv
[18:59] <Betanu701> thanks :)
[19:09] <litropy> How do I stop Update Manager from bugging me? I use apt-get instead.
[19:09] <tgm4883> litropy, in the update manager settings, you can disable it from looking for updates
[19:09] <litropy> tgm4883, haha that's such an easy answer; why didn't I think to check that lol
[19:10] <MO_Handes> when I try to install software with apt-get it keeps 0% [waiting for headers] ad does nothing. how to fix it?
[19:10] <jerome_> gedit ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml     -- same command for ubuntu?

[19:15] <ikonia> Guest24013: it's gone
[19:15] <Guest24013> ikonia, http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/linux-data-recovery.html are such tutorials useless??
[19:15] <donttrustem> thanks

[19:16] <litropy> Is there a quick way to check the changelog of a package, e.g. from Bash?
[19:16] <ikonia> rustler770: because you are copying a disk to a partition
[19:17] <ikonia> rustler770: the is a mess

[19:17] <llutz> litropy: aptitude changelog packagename
[19:17] <rustler770> both are usb flash
[19:17] <Siecje> which package can I use to set up a mail server without a domain name
[19:17] <ikonia> rustler770: so ?
[19:17] <Guest24013> ikonia, Could you help in a little problem with setting my wlan as master so when I create wireless I don't want it to be adhoc network so my phone can connect to it.
[19:17] <ikonia> Siecje: how do you expect to use a mail server without a domain name ?
[19:17] <jpmh> how do I change the image that displays while ubuntu is loading
[19:18] <ikonia> Guest24013: there is a guide on the ubuntu wiki for setting up an access point
[19:18] <ikonia> jpmh: that's called the splash screen
[19:18] <litropy> Thx llutz. BTW, last I checked, aptitude wasn't playing nice. I used to use it in place of apt-get until many recommended switching back to apt-get. Has this changed?
[19:18] <tgm4883> litropy, apt-get changelog <packagename> should work too, since aptitude isn't installed by default
[19:18] <rustler770> the first usb is bootable the data copies is is no bootable
[19:18] <ikonia> jpmh: it "should" be easy, but to be honest, it's a complex mess that is a pain to maintain
[19:18] <ikonia> rustler770: I've told you why, repeating the same thing won't change that
[19:19] <Guest24013> ikonia, I followed it and it asked me to install packages madfire-tools and linux-restricted-modules on my system, but I couldn't find them on using aptitude
[19:19] <ikonia> !info madfire-tools
[19:19] <rustler770> how to then
[19:19] <ikonia> Guest24013: can you show me the link you are using
[19:19] <ikonia> rustler770: copy a partition to a partition, or a disk to a disk
[19:19] <rustler770> usb to usb
[19:19] <ikonia> rustler770: no - that means nothing
[19:20] <ikonia> rustler770: a disk to a disk, or a partition to a partition
[19:20] <jpmh> ikonia: LOL - just what I did NOT want to hear.  Surely there is a file that contains the image, somewhere, no?
[19:20] <ikonia> jpmh: it's really not that simple
[19:20] <ikonia> jpmh: it should be....but it's not

[19:20] <ikonia> jpmh: ignore that, wrong link
[19:20] <llutz> litropy: don't use aptitude for isntallation etc, but for tasks like changelog/why/whynot etc. its still a handy tool
[19:20] <tgm4883> rustler770, there is a difference between "dd if=/dev/sdc of=/dev/sdb1" and "dd if=/dev/sdc of=/dev/sdb"
[19:20] <ikonia> Guest24013: do you have an atheros chipset ?
[19:20] <litropy> thx llutz
[19:20] <ikonia> !wtf | donttrustem_
[19:20] <tgm4883> llutz, changelog exists for apt-get as well
[19:20] <donttrustem_> I rebooted and now have no desktop
[19:20] <jpmh> ikonia: which of the two am I ignoring
[19:20] <rustler770> oic
[19:21] <ikonia> jpmh: both
[19:21] <mike160> hi can anyone help me out i just install rtorrent/rutorrent and when trying to add torrent files to the rtorrent watch folder am getting permission denied
[19:21] <llutz> litropy: unfortunately aptitude still has some problems with multiarch, thats why you should stay with apt-get for install/remove/purge
[19:21] <donttrustem_> OK
[19:21] <llutz> tgm4883: does it, since what version?
[19:21] <tgm4883> llutz, IDK, but it works on 12.04
[19:21] <Guest24013> ikonia, yes
[19:21] <donttrustem> ikonia: can you help with the video problem :S
[19:22] <ikonia> !info madwifi-tools
[19:22] <donttrustem> I have spent days n this
[19:22] <llutz> tgm4883: thx, i didn't knew that. so litropy "apt-get changelog package" :)
[19:22] <ikonia> Guest24013: looks like that guide is no longer valid for post 8.04

[19:28] <ikonia> donttrustem: where did you get the nvidia drivers....$100 says nvidia.com
[19:28] <donttrustem> BluesKaj: yes
[19:28] <donttrustem> ikonia:these are the additional  drivers
[19:29] <BluesKaj> donttrustem, , which nvidia card ?
[19:29] <mike160> ubuntu permission denied folder when trying to add files does anyone know how to change the permission on a folder
[19:29] <ikonia> mike160: right click on it
[19:29] <ikonia> donttrustem: that's excellent
[19:29] <ikonia> mike160: where is the folder
[19:30] <donttrustem> BluesKaj: 2 secs need to run the command from recovery mode
[19:30] <mike160> ikonia system files
[19:30] <ikonia> mike160: where exactly, as there is no such thing as "system files"
[19:30] <mike160> ok hold on
[19:33] <mike160> ikonia its in the file system

[19:34] <mike160> hold on let make check good
[19:34] <donttrustem> BluesKaj: how do I rollback to the original so I can get the desktop backup
[19:35] <BluesKaj> well , donttrustem you could try an older kernel ...it's better than attempting a rollback IME
[19:35] <ghengis> poke 36879,8
[19:36] <donttrustem> BluesKaj: I only have one kernal

[19:36] <ehershey_> hi is it possible to get a newer version of openssl 0.9.8 than 0.9.8k on ubuntu 10.04 ?
[19:36] <ikonia> ehershey_: no
[19:37] <ikonia> ehershey_: not from official packages
[19:37] <ehershey_> :( ok
[19:38] <BluesKaj> donttrustem, the additional drivers should give you more than one choice , assuming you've all  of them?
[19:38] <mike160> ikonia the folder is home rtorrent watch
[19:38] <ikonia> mike160: so that folder should already be owned by you
[19:39] <donttrustem> I had about 7 choices ... but I cannot change them because I cannot get to the desktop
[19:41] <derrick_> How would one go about specifying a username and password when connecting to a server in Files in 13.04?
[19:41] <BluesKaj> donttrustem, can you get to a tty , ctrl+alt+f1 up to f6 , then sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get upgrade
[19:41] <mike160> ikonia no i install rtorrent under a other user and now i cant add files to that folder how do i change the permissions
[19:41] <donttrustem> ok
[19:42] <donttrustem> will try it
[19:42] <ikonia> mike160: why did you install it as another user ?
[19:43] <wilee-nilee> edit: sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get update
[19:43] <pablo_> hi all
[19:43] <wilee-nilee> oops sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get upgrade
[19:44] <mike160> ikonia caues i dont know how to install rtorrent and rutorrent and i use this script its called filzbox to automate the install of rutorrent/rtorrent and it did it like that
[19:44] <pablo_> I have one problem with compiling in ubuntu 12.10
[19:45] <histo> !details | pablo_
[19:45] <pablo_> ./configure say me : checking whether the C compiler works... no
[19:45] <pablo_> 12.10
[19:45] <histo> pablo_: install build-essential
[19:45] <pablo_> gcc is installed
[19:45] <ikonia> pablo_: what are you trying to compile...and why
[19:46] <pablo_> nmap 6.25 from source code
[19:46] <Guest24013> ikonia, thanks I am reading it
[19:46] <ikonia> pablo_: why....
[19:46] <ikonia> pablo_: nmap is in the repo
[19:46] <pablo_> 'cause nmap from ubuntu is a old version
[19:46] <ikonia> pablo_: and why is that a problem....
[19:47] <pablo_> what do u mean for build-essential ?
[19:47] <ikonia> pablo_: why do you need a newer version than the ubunut package
[19:47] <Ulisse> who
[19:47] <ikonia> pablo_: what is the problem with the ubuntu package
[19:47] <histo> !info build-essential
[19:48] <Siecje> ikonia: not sure if it is behind the scenes but I can send emails through a python library
[19:48] <ikonia> Siecje: so you don't want a mail server, you just want an smtp relay or "mta"
[19:48] <pablo_> really I'm using lubuntu 12.10 now
[19:48] <twmb> where is the ubuntu alternate install that allows me to use a preseed file?
[19:48] <ikonia> pablo_: ok, so what's the problem the nmap package in lubuntu
[19:48] <twmb> the normal ubuntu install doesn't
[19:49] <Guest24013> ikonia, when I try make to install the driver I get that error Makefile.inc:81: *** Cannot detect kernel version - please check compiler and KERNELPATH.  Stop.
[19:49] <ikonia> Guest24013: you're missing the kernel source I'll guess
[19:49] <histo> Siecje: ssmtp is a nice simple one
[19:49]  * pablo_ lubuntu is different from ubuntu ? I mean excluding x-window system
[19:49] <ikonia> pablo_: ok, so what's the problem the nmap package in lubuntu
[19:49] <histo> ikonia: you have to let him break it so he can learn on his own
[19:50] <donttrustem> BluesKaj: OK done that ...now reboot?
[19:50] <wastl> nabend
[19:50]  * pablo_ it's a old version, but ok I'll use it from synaptic or apt-get :)
[19:51] <ikonia> pablo_: what's the issue with an old version ?
[19:51] <BluesKaj> donttrustem, run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to get any kernel upgrades as well
[19:51] <donttrustem> ok
[19:51]  * pablo_ it's different the fingerprinting for example, they are old
[19:51] <angs> I need to install dependencies of wpa_supplicant 2.0 on ubuntu. how can I install the dependencies by aptitude ?
[19:51] <BluesKaj> donttrustem, then reboot
[19:51] <pablo_> laste
[19:51] <ikonia> pablo_: that's easy to update, that's not in the source code
[19:52]  * pablo_ ok, ok I'll change only the fingerprinting file thank u ikonia
[19:52] <wastl> angs install wpa_supplicant via aptitude and it will also install deps if available
[19:52] <wilee-nilee> twmb, Not sure there is one. You can make one or use a package list of what you want. I did find this though.  https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/i386/preseed-contents.html
[19:52] <wastl> if it don't then not all deps are available
[19:52] <Guest24013> ikonia, another little problem. I have updated a different machine running ubuntu 12.04 LTS after updating the interface wont start up. All I get access to is the shell
[19:53] <bentech4you> i am using ubuntu 11.04, i tried to upgrade , but it failed to fetch one path and all update got failed. how to upgrade my ubuntu
[19:53] <ikonia> Guest24013: I'd need more info
[19:53] <twmb> I know that there is one not hosted on the main site.... but, dang
[19:53] <tux9th> Hi guys. I'm having a bit of a situation here: I'm using ufw as a iptables agent but it seems to have stopped working
[19:53] <tux9th> if I block a host with ufw deny from IP it adds this as a rule but the rules does not work
[19:54] <tux9th> however if I directly add it with iptables -I INPUT -s IP -j DROP it works
[19:54] <tux9th> Does anyone here have an idea what goes wrong?
[19:55] <angs> wastl: apt-get install wpasupplicant does not upgrade the wpa_supplicant to 2.0 it uses and old one. I installed the wpa_supplicant 2.0 manually but it requires a lot dependencies. someone here used to told a command with aptitude to install dependencies automatically, would you know how I would need to use it?
[19:55] <jacer> tux, have you restarted the interface after making the change?
[19:55] <tux9th> jacer: what interface?
[19:55] <jacer> net0, or whatever interface you want hte change to apply to.
[19:55] <tux9th> all of this worked before but it suddenly stopped; the old rules are enforced but new ones won't get added
[19:55] <tux9th> no I did not
[19:55] <wastl> angs try apt-get -f install ?
[19:56] <bentech4you> while upgrading i am getting "Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/a/apturl/apturl-common_0.4.2ubuntu5.1_i386.deb 403  Forbidden [IP: 91.189.91.13 80]"  this errot
[19:56] <unstable> How can I get the original configuration file from apache when I installed the package? Before I changed it all.
[19:56] <Guest24013> ikonia, Should I check the boot log and tell you if I found any problems. Or is there any specific log file you'll need me to check
[19:57] <k1l> bentech4you: upgrade means "apt-get upgrade"?
[19:57] <wastl> unstable: maybe you find one in /usr/share/doc/packages/apache2 ?
[19:58] <bentech4you> yes. apt-get upgrade also giving this error. also i tried from GUI
[19:58] <Guest24013> ikonia, Maybe Xorg.log?
[19:58] <k1l> bentech4you: try a "sudo apt-get update" first
[19:59] <Synx|hm> Suggestions for exporting (NFS Export) an NFS mount, i know it sounds stupid, but im trying to get my FOG server to store its images on an NFS mount, but it has to be able to share out that folder to the targets as well, from what i can tell exporting an nfsmount with exportfs is not a good idea if even possible
[19:59] <bentech4you> that i did
[20:00] <bentech4you> after apt-get update only i tried from GUI
[20:00] <tux9th> jacer: restartin eth0 does not help
[20:00] <unstable> wastl: I don't see it in there anywhere.
[20:00] <Espen___> Hey! Do anyone here have s/pdif output on their soundcard? I have a bug, and i wish to hear if im the only one having this problem.
[20:00] <k1l> bentech4you: the link is working here btw
[20:01] <Espen___> the problem is saving output volume
[20:01] <wastl> unstable: damg :( Then you might download the apache dpg file and extract it? Or ask someone to send you one
[20:02] <wastl> dpkg file even
[20:02] <Coded1> I'm trying to install some multilib (i386) on 12.10x64.  I had a repo (webupd8) that conflicted so I removed them from /etc/apt/sources.list.d and then "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get autoremove" to remove it. but now I get this ---> http://pastebin.com/uPWcptTe
[20:02] <bentech4you> so what's worng from my side. how can i pdate my ubuntu to latest version
[20:02] <donttrustem_> BluesKaj, All working ... you are a star
[20:02] <donttrustem_> Thanks
[20:03] <Pici> unstable: see check the contents of /usr/share/doc/apache2.2-common/examples/apache2/
[20:03] <Mathnerd314> I'm running gnome 3. I can move the mouse around just fine, and click on gnome-shell things. But the mouse doesn't interact with any of my applications. The keyboard is the opposite: it interacts with all the applications but not the shell. Advice? I assume there's a bug report somewhere
[20:03] <BluesKaj> donttrustem_, glad to hear it . :)
[20:04] <donttrustem_> Been  a crazy few days trying to get this working
[20:04] <Espen___> Could anyone here please test if they have a problem with saving s/pdif output volume on their soundcard? I wish to see if this is a widespread pulseaudio bug or not, because i get on BOTH my creative card and realtek card. Tried newest Intel-HDA driver, and 3.9 RC3 kernel. No difference. According to my bug report i should report to alsa-devel mailing list, but i don't know how i submit to a mailing list?
[20:07] <Guest24013> I am trying to connect to wireless network using iwconfig essid NETWORKKEY and I get that error Error for wireless request "Set ESSID" (8B1A) :
[20:07] <Guest24013>     SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not permitted.
[20:07] <BluesKaj> Espen___, that's an old one there doesn't seem to be any incentive to fix it since spdif gives the option of using the volume on the audio device, amp or receiver input signal
[20:09] <BluesKaj> Espen___, after configuring alsamixer , you can try , sudo alsactl store , in the  terminal ...it might hold
[20:11] <mzetta> hallo wastl
[20:12] <Guest24013> BluesKaj, any ideas on how to connect to wlan under terminal. I tried the above solution but it doesn't work
[20:14] <bean> Guest24013: are you doing it as root
[20:15] <donttrustem> eexit
[20:15] <donttrustem> exit
[20:15] <BluesKaj> Guest24013, sudo ifconfig wlan0 up , then,  sudo iwlist wlan0 scan|grep -i essid
[20:15] <wastl> lol
[20:16] <BluesKaj> wlan being what ever number is assigned of course , Guest24013
[20:17] <Guest24013> BluesKaj, Done, getting now HTC as the desired unsecured network I wish to connect to
[20:18] <Guest24013> BluesKaj, Sorry for crossposting
[20:18] <tehfox> hey guys, anyone knows how to disable AAAA DNS queries in Ubuntu 12.10?
[20:19] <Guest24013> BluesKaj, http://pastebin.com/u098UmdS
[20:20] <wastl> thefox: disable ipv6 if you don't need it
[20:20] <wastl> AAAA Records in DNS are ipv6 records
[20:20] <mzetta> hallo wastl
[20:21] <Guest24013> BluesKaj, and after trying iwconfig I get this http://pastebin.com/uBE1F2H9
[20:23] <Espen___> Could anyone here please test if they have a problem with saving s/pdif output volume on their soundcard? I wish to see if this is a widespread pulseaudio bug or not, because i get on BOTH my creative card and realtek card. Tried newest Intel-HDA driver, and 3.9 RC3 kernel. No difference. According to my bug report i should report to alsa-devel mailing list, but i don't know how i submit to a mailing list?
[20:23] <BluesKaj> Guest24013 , did you run ,  sudo ifconfig wlan0 up ?
[20:24] <BluesKaj> Guest24013, not iwconfig
[20:24] <tehfox> wastl: I did disable IPv6 (in /etc/sysctl.conf -- the interfaces don't have IPv6 addresses) but applications still send AAAA queries.
[20:24] <tehfox> wastl: and this causes very very annoying delays during normal operation.
[20:24] <BluesKaj> Guest24013, make sure you use sudo
[20:26] <Guest24013> BluesKaj, I did run the following in the following order. 1- sudo iwlist wlan0 scan 2- sudo ifconfig wlan0 up 3- sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid HTC
[20:28] <com5> Okay this is getting a bit ridiculous. All I want to do is be able to run a user created script that is in a user created directory with having to be in that directory
[20:29] <BluesKaj> Guest24013, I'm not a real wifi expert , it's always been kind of hit or miss for me ...those commands helped me fix a few family laptops running various ubuntus and a few here that couldn't find the essids etc , but that's about it.
[20:31] <llutz> com5: you are "that user"? and your problem ist?
[20:32] <com5> Yes
[20:32] <com5> *"ist?"?

[20:32] <llutz> com5: "is" sry
[20:32] <timhansen> are the packages for 10.10 still available?
[20:32] <timhansen> i'm getting a bunch of 404 errors when trying to install wkhtmltopdf
[20:33] <Glenn__> virtualbox help needed
[20:33] <Glenn__> on ubuntu 12.04 workstation
[20:33] <com5> I want to do a very simple thing but nothing I try works
[20:33] <llutz> com5: mkdir mydir; cp myscript mydir/; cd mydir; ./myscript
[20:34] <wastl> timhansen: did you do an apt-get update before?
[20:34]  * derp farts loudly.
[20:34] <Glenn__> yes
[20:34] <com5> All the guides I have followed have many different way I none of them seem to want to work
[20:35] <Glenn__> update pending ?
[20:35] <llutz> com5: you have a script you want to copy and run in a special directory, all owned/created as you/your user, right?
[20:35] <tehfox> brb
[20:35] <wastl> Glenn__: u have some virtualbox issue?
[20:36]  * wastl runs Virtualbox on current Ubuntu without problems
[20:36] <Glenn__> yes
[20:36] <com5> Well right there llutz is a problem as some guide say to not have the / on the end of the path and others have there is the guide
[20:36] <wastl> except from the neccessity to recompile those kernel modules whenever  there is a kernel update
[20:36] <Glenn__> used ubuntu software senter, virtual box
[20:36] <timhansen> wastl: yes. looks like 10.10 is no longer supported
[20:36] <llutz> com5: there is no need for the trailing / in PATH-var
[20:37] <wastl> timhansen: might be if it wasn't lts
[20:37] <Guest24013> BluesKaj, Thanks anyway :-)
[20:37] <Espen___> Anyone here with a realtek card/creative card, having this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7dBJkviD4Y&t=00m18s
[20:37] <wastl> timhansen: in this case you are rather lost
[20:37] <timhansen> wastl: 10.04 was LTS https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS
[20:37] <BluesKaj> Guest24013, best of luck
[20:37] <timhansen> wastl: eh, just means we need to spin up a new server with 12.04
[20:37] <com5> Yes, it really simple. I have a script I made, I have a directory I made, I put the script in said directory, now I would like to be able to run that script with out going to that directory
[20:38] <com5> Okay good to know
[20:38] <tehfox> wastl: I added a "precedence ::ffff:0:0/96  100" line to /etc/gai.conf and restarted the system (I'm not sure when are these settings applied) - it didn't help.
[20:38] <wastl> Glenn__: I never used the virtualbox package from software center...allways dlled the latest .deb from virtualbox website
[20:38] <tehfox> wastl: simple "host www.google.com." takes 20 seconds and I still see AAAA queries via tcpdump.
[20:39] <llutz> com5: add "export PATH=$PATH:/home/you/yourdirwithscript" to ~/.bashrc, then relogin or just ". ~/.bashrc" to get the changes active
[20:39] <llutz> com5: make sure your script is executable
[20:39] <Guest24013> BluesKaj, Do you know how to uninstall updates through terminal. Because I have a laptop running Ubuntu LTS after updating it all what I get is a blank screen after startup while the shells are working probably.
[20:39] <BigWig> I can't boot into windows or linux. All that shows up is the grub rescue line. I tried ubuntu boot repair and it didn't do anything
[20:39] <com5> There are guides saying to add a path inn .profile and there are guides saying to it in .bachrc and still more to put them over here and over there and none of them work
[20:40] <wastl> timhansen: then maybe packages for 10.04 are still availaibe (due to lts) but for 10.10 are not
[20:40] <wastl> Glenn__: so what's your issue
[20:40] <com5> I use these scripts all the time
[20:40] <timhansen> wastl: correct
[20:40] <com5> They are all set to x
[20:40] <llutz> com5: ".bashrc" is sourced in ".profile" by default in ubuntu. so .bashrc will be fine because its always read
[20:40] <com5> Okay I will try again
[20:41] <llutz> com5: check "grep bashrc ~/.profile"
[20:41] <llutz> com5: should give something like:   if [ -f "$HOME/.bashrc" ]; then ...
[20:42] <com5> Yes I get this if statement
[20:42] <com5> But it is # out
[20:42] <llutz> com5: remove those #
[20:42] <com5> So then it is not included
[20:44] <com5> Remove them in .bachrc or .profile ?
[20:44] <llutz> com5: change .profile to read like this: https://gist.github.com/llutz/5190641
[20:44] <com5> Oh in .profile
[20:45] <llutz> com5:then  add "export PATH=$PATH:/home/you/yourdirwithscript" to ~/.bashrc, then relogin or just ". ~/.bashrc" to get the changes activated
[20:45] <com5> llutz, what about the "set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists" should I use that as well
[20:45] <com5> ?
[20:46] <Guest24013> I updated ubuntu 12.04 LTS and after the 250 MB update I can't get interface running while the shells are running.
[20:46] <llutz> com5: if you use a ~/bin  sure
[20:47] <llutz> com5: i wouldn't change that. if you don't have a ~/bin  dir, it wouldn't harm and if you have one, you don't have to worry about the PATH
[20:48] <com5> Yeah that's where I have my scripts but under more sub directory's so is it recessive?
[20:48] <llutz> com5: nope
[20:48] <com5> Thought so, thanks
[20:48] <joot> ubuntu on spanish_?
[20:48] <llutz> com5: you have to specify all dirs on their own, path won't be searched recursively
[20:48] <Pici> !es | joot

[20:49] <com5> Cool thank. llutz good to get that clear
[20:49] <tgm4883> !ask | psil0cybin
[20:49] <com5> Seems obvious now
[20:51] <com5> Thanks for posting the example llutz but in it the include is still # out
[20:52] <llutz> com5: thats just a comment to make clear what the following line do
[20:52] <llutz> lines
[20:52] <llutz> com5: so "include" here is not a command
[20:52] <joot> hy, one question, when i halt my laptop ubuntu not relice this action, ubuntu is freeze. any idea?
[20:52] <com5> Oh crap yes that's a comment also
[20:53] <com5> Then it was not 3 out then
[20:54] <joot> hy, one question, when i halt my laptop ubuntu not relice this action, ubuntu is freeze. any idea?_
[20:54] <com5> so this is the correct format? export PATH=/path/to/dir:$PATH
[20:55] <ValdaOfHabitat> Hey guys - I can't seem to get my installation to work. I followed the steps from booting off of my DVD where I clicked "try Ubuntu" to make sure all my hardware worked, and it did, but when I run the installer, the Installation Type menu looks different and then I get an error : /
[20:55] <com5> And if I want multiple paths I separate them with a ; ?
[20:55] <llutz> com5:   :  colon
[20:56] <com5> Oh full colon
[20:56] <llutz> com5: "export PATH=$PATH:/dira:/dirB:/whatevercomenow:/my/end
[20:57] <com5> Wow, because on AskUbuntu it is started as, export PATH=/path/to/dir:$PATH
[20:58] <com5> I have literaly be at this for weeks
[20:58] <llutz> com5: also valid, that add your /path/to/dir BEFORE the original PATH
[20:58] <wastl> com5: that would overwrite your courrent path while the other one adds to it
[20:58] <wastl> yap
[20:58] <llutz> wastl: no it won't
[20:58] <wastl> overread the :$PATH at the end...my fault
[20:58] <Guest24013> Any ideas how I can revert the system to before update stat?
[20:58] <com5> So it would brake your current paths?
[20:59] <llutz> com5: no
[20:59] <com5> Okay
[20:59] <llutz> com5: it changes the order the dirs are searched through
[20:59] <guest-qyGFbA> Hello, i have installed new xubuntu 12.04. I have problem with xrandr. So... I installed disper and i don't know why my main account doesn't works. Only guest. -.-
[20:59] <com5> Oh cool
[20:59] <llutz> com5: PATH=/dirA:$PATH   will search first in dirA THEN in the other $PATH-dirs
[21:00] <guest-qyGFbA> I will reinstall xubuntu, but now i just want to know, how can I add new mode. I have 1440x900 monitor on DVI-I-1.
[21:00] <guest-qyGFbA> Is anyone here?
[21:00] <llutz> com5: that might be a security issue, if an atacker is able to put stuff into your personal ~/bin it will be run, not the stuff from e.g. /usr/bin
[21:00] <com5> Cool thanks llutz make sense
[21:01] <joot> hy, one question, when i halt my laptop ubuntu not relice this action, ubuntu is freeze. any idea?
[21:01] <com5> Yeah good to point out
[21:01] <llutz> if named identical*
[21:01] <llutz> com5: thats why i prefer PATH=$PATH:/custom    /my stuff at the end/
[21:01] <guest-qyGFbA> HEY
[21:02] <joot> hey
[21:02] <guest-qyGFbA> Is somebody here who can help me with xrandr settings?
[21:03] <com5> And what is the command to check the current path?
[21:03] <sam113101> echo?
[21:03] <sam113101> echo $PATH
[21:03] <renelia> anyone here?
[21:03] <joot> what happend with xrandr?
[21:03] <com5> Oh echo that right
[21:05] <com5> And is there a way to apply the new path without loging out and loging back in?
[21:05] <joot> well tks foe your help XD
[21:05] <llutz> com5:"  source  ~/.bashrc "
[21:05] <rshawnk> Hi everyone
[21:06] <com5> Cool cheers
[21:06] <rshawnk> my first linux/irc chat experience
[21:07] <RoryO> Welcome
[21:07] <RobbyF> Hi
[21:07] <com5> After running source ~/.bashrc echo $PATH shows no change
[21:08] <llutz> com5: "grep PATH ~/.bashrc"
[21:08] <rshawnk> so who is the multicast/pxe boot expert(s) up in here?
[21:08] <com5> Nothing
[21:09] <llutz> com5: so you haven't changed ~/.bashrc, where did you specify your new PATH then? in ~/.profile? that will only be read on login
[21:10] <llutz> com5: thats why i told you to add it to ~/.bashrc
[21:11] <ValdaOfHabitat> Could someone give me some insight on my installation issues? my installation type screen looks like this : http://i.imgur.com/td0BDyL.png
[21:11] <knob> Hello guys... I imported a script that I ran in a Debian machine... all good over there.  Yet in Ubuntu, it tells me ftp-upload: command not found
[21:11] <ValdaOfHabitat> and if I click anything it crashes : (
[21:11] <knob> Am I doing something wrong?   Is there a different command I should run?
[21:11] <com5> Cool, yeah thanks llutz it was in .profile by mistake
[21:11] <llutz> !info ftp-upload
[21:12] <llutz> knob: seems not to be installed by default, sudo apt-get install ftp-upload
[21:12] <SonikkuAmerica> ValdaOfHabitat: Umm... you have a hard drive attached, right?
[21:12] <knob> llutz, thank you!
[21:12] <com5> Yeah now my changers are showing up with echo $PATH
[21:12] <knob> I'm a n00b at this, so thanks fro the help! =D
[21:13] <com5> But it's still not finding the scripts
[21:13] <ValdaOfHabitat> I do, I have 4 identical 1TB HDD's in a RAID 10
[21:14] <llutz> com5: you call scripts from your script?
[21:14] <com5> Nope
[21:14] <com5> They are really simple
[21:14] <llutz> com5: but ls -l ~/yourdir   shows your script?
[21:14] <SonikkuAmerica> ValdaOfHabitat: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID <<< here
[21:14] <com5> Yes
[21:15] <llutz> com5: as being executable...
[21:15] <wastl> SonikkuAmerica: sounded like if he runs hardware raid
[21:15] <com5> I can go straight to the dir and run them no problem
[21:15] <wastl> g2g ppl
[21:16] <com5> Have been doing so for weeks
[21:16] <ValdaOfHabitat> Wait, so I can't install it on a RAID 1+0 without partitioning?
[21:16] <xuigenerix> Dear all, I've got a silly question: Does anyone know how to solve this issue with the installation of a package? $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install vcstools  E: Unable to locate package vcstools
[21:16] <llutz> com5: what is the full PATH to your script? and what is your $PATH? can you please pastebin it
[21:16] <wastl> ValdaOfHabitat: lol you always need a partition to install on
[21:16] <com5> It is just /home/computer/bin/system
[21:16] <SonikkuAmerica> wastl: I quoted the wrong page.
[21:16] <llutz> xuigenerix: you need to find a repo with that package
[21:16] <com5> That is it
[21:17] <SonikkuAmerica> ValdaOfHabitat: Try this instead: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation#Installing_on_external_or_RAID_hard_disks
[21:17] <ValdaOfHabitat> Well I guessed that, but what about all of that "installing along windows" and such?
[21:17] <ValdaOfHabitat> Sorry for being very noobish
[21:17] <llutz> com5: and echo $PATH ?
[21:17] <rshawnk> which vcstools might help
[21:17] <com5> And the other dir is /home/computer/bin/wireless
[21:17] <wastl> ValdaOfHabitat: well if the installer kernel has a driver  there should be some device...to me that looks as if it doesn't
 I've found the following link http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/science/, but I don't an idea how to add to my repos
[21:18] <wastl> g2g
[21:18] <com5> /usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/home/computer/bin:/home/computer/bin/system:/home/computer/bin/wireless
[21:18] <wastl> bbl
[21:18] <llutz> xuigenerix: vcftools, not vcs
[21:18] <wastl> maybe
[21:18] <rshawnk> ok my bad VCS
[21:19] <com5> May I have to restart for is to propagate fully
[21:19] <com5> *Maybe
[21:19] <asterix_> !list
[21:20] <asterix_> !list
[21:20] <com5> Thank you for all of your help llutz I will restart and be back later
[21:20] <rshawnk> which version of vcstools?
[21:20] <llutz> com5: what are the names of your scripts? "ls -l ~/bin/system ~/bin/wireless" please
[21:21] <rshawnk> i think the newest is 0.1.30 as of a copule of dayz ago
 I've noticed that is vcftools as you suggested, however, still don't know how to add to the repositories
[21:21] <llutz> !info vcftools
[21:22] <llutz> xuigenerix: its in the normal /universe/ repos
[21:23] <llutz> xuigenerix:just make sure to have universe enabled in ... how is it called "software sources". or check /etc/apt/sources.list
[21:23] <rshawnk> oh sorry vcf. I thought we were doing python. got a 4 year old keeping me busy
[21:24] <SonikkuAmerica> !grub > ValdaOfHabitat
 Let me try, I'll be back in some minutes to share you how it goes! Hope you are still here!

[21:37] <com5> This is maddening
[21:38] <jjelo> anyone who can help me out with iw?
[21:38] <marksaitis> why my ubuntu 12.04 lts fresh install has some quantal crap like xorg-quantal and loads of others? Nobody bloody asked for this crap, it should be precise!!!
[21:38] <histo> !ot | HandsomeJack
[21:38] <marksaitis> HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[21:38] <histo> marksaitis: it was backported
[21:38] <yourimym1> hello there i want to remove old kernel  and leave the latest one , how do i do this http://pastebin.com/QUAm1zAH
[21:38] <HandsomeJack> handsome jack is not happy
[21:38] <marksaitis> histo, how on earth and why?
[21:39] <histo> HandsomeJack: can go elsewhere and be unhappy
[21:39] <marksaitis> I mean, cedarview-drm doesnt work with this quantal crap
[21:39] <k1l> !guidelines | HandsomeJack
[21:39] <histo> yourimym1: just apt-get remove linux-image-blah
[21:39] <marksaitis> why backport stuff as a default?
[21:39] <marksaitis> :(
[21:39] <histo> marksaitis: it's not default. It's for anyone that has installed after 12.04.1
[21:40] <marksaitis> well it is a default...I have ubuntu precise, but after fresh install it contains some quantal crap.... this is LTS?!
[21:40] <marksaitis> I dont understand it
[21:40] <marksaitis> it gives a problem
[21:40] <mzetta> why is ubuntu planning to create a own display server?
[21:40] <marksaitis> whats the point of backporting without asking the user...
[21:40] <yourimym1> histo: for ex  sudo apt-get remove linux-image-extra-3.5.0-25-generic
[21:40] <k1l> markalanevans: you dont have a plain precise. you have a precise.2 if its a fresh install
[21:41] <k1l> marksaitis: ^, that is a difference
[21:41] <marksaitis> I thought the word stable means no stuff from the future, especially by default
[21:41] <histo> yourimym1: yes
[21:41] <marksaitis> hat difference
[21:41] <histo> yourimym1: which ever ones you no longer want
[21:41] <histo> marksaitis: i'm trying to find the anouncement for you
[21:41] <yourimym1> histo , isn't that gonna make mess here ?
[21:42] <k1l> marksaitis: so the ones who install the point release get the newer kernel etc by default. the one who come from 12.04 _can_ upgrade if they want but dont need to
[21:42] <marksaitis> I am affected by this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cedarview-drm-drivers/+bug/1132584 .... because of this quantal crap
[21:42] <marksaitis> k1l, how on earth would I know? I just went and downloaded latest stable Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
[21:43] <histo> yourimym1: not if it's a kernel you aren't using
[21:43] <marksaitis> precise LTS thats all I want. I now don't understand whether im on lts or not :D
[21:43] <k1l> marksaitis: see this wiki entry: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack
[21:43] <jjelo> anyone who can help me out with iw? when i try to establish connection  via command "iw wlan0 connect ssid" nothing happens .. and command "iw dev wlan0 link" reports Not connected... dafuq?
[21:44] <yourimym1> histo: problem http://pastebin.com/KfBfbQR2
[21:44] <clemens> does anybody know a good tool to backup the whole system?
[21:44] <HandsomeJack> if your here to kill me... you should know  YOU WILL NEVER TAKE ME ALIVE YOU ROBITIC SUMBTICH
[21:44] <IdleOne> !backup | clemens
[21:44] <marksaitis> okay I get it.... but now what do I do with this? :)))) it allows for newer HW.... but drops the old? where is the middle then
[21:45] <histo> marksaitis: where do you get that from?
[21:45] <l-ndkc> anyone on
[21:46] <l-ndkc> anyone know how to install backtrack5 or any similar software on the newest version of ubuntu
[21:46] <l-ndkc> for desktop
[21:46] <IdleOne> !bt5 | l-ndkc
[21:46] <histo> marksaitis: here is where the announcement was https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseNotes/UbuntuDesktop
[21:46] <marksaitis> histo, I seen on forums which say some cedarview stuff cant be installed because xorg-something is missing and it is because it is renamed to xorg-something-quantal
[21:46] <IdleOne> !bt | l-ndkc
[21:46] <IdleOne> !backtrack | l-ndkc
[21:46] <marksaitis> I got the idea of LTS stack
[21:46] <marksaitis> thank you
[21:47] <histo> marksaitis: you can install the 12.04.1 or 12.04.0 and elect not to install the new stacks
[21:47] <k1l> marksaitis: then revert to regular kernel
[21:47] <marksaitis> its just that I am on latest ubuntu 12.04 lts on my eee 1025ce with cedar trail... and it gives me an error that cedarview-drm fails to install when I update
[21:47] <zgabriel> holaa
[21:48] <marksaitis> I want cedar view stuff to work :) but dont know how to make it happen
[21:48] <histo> marksaitis: does it work on the older kernel?
[21:48] <l-ndkc> :P
[21:48] <you-tee-f> what is the default desktop manager of ubuntu ?
[21:49] <histo> you-tee-f: unity
[21:49] <marksaitis> histo, I don't know.
[21:49] <k1l> you-tee-f: unity (which is a gnome3-shell)
[21:49] <marksaitis> histo, it's possibly not just the kernel which is the issue, no idea
[21:49] <you-tee-f> gnome3-shell
[21:49] <you-tee-f> hm
[21:50] <guest-XBio6w> hi, problem:when I try to login it logs out straight away
[21:50] <mikehaas763|work> When I set up a static IP using the graphical interface in 12.10, my connection will not work. I can't ping ip addresses, no internet, nothing. I'm pretty sure I'm putting in the right gateway and dns. Any idea why this is happening?
[21:50] <you-tee-f> i'm curious is it based on X11
[21:50] <you-tee-f> something like that ?
[21:50] <histo> you-tee-f: yes
[21:50] <k1l> you-tee-f: no, its not the gnome-shell, its a gnome-shell
[21:50] <histo> you-tee-f: we are still using X
[21:50] <you-tee-f> i see
[21:50] <histo> you-tee-f: not wayland or mir yet
[21:50] <antonigiske> Hello. I have a question regarding SSH keys. Whenever I try to pull something from github im prompted with my passphrase. So I did "ssh-agent bash && ssh-add" and entered by password on the root user. When I go back to the ubuntu user and do sudo git pull I still get prompted for the passphrase. How do I fix that?
[21:51] <you-tee-f> k1l what is a gnome-shell ?
[21:51] <histo> antonigiske: are you trying to login via keys?
[21:51] <histo> !unity | you-tee-f
[21:51] <antonigiske> histo: id_rsa
[21:52] <you-tee-f> ok
[21:52] <you-tee-f> i'll dive in
[21:52] <you-tee-f> t.h.a.n.k.s
[21:54] <histo> antonigiske: i've never used it looks interesting what you are trying to do though
[21:54] <com5> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables says that /bashrc is not recommended any more
[21:54] <histo> antonigiske: but shouldn't ssh-agent be already running from X?
[21:55] <antonigiske> histo: What I'm trying to do is actually create a deploy scripts using fabric. But it prompts me for the passphrase.
[21:55] <com5> And that paths are to be add in  ~/.pam-environment
[21:56] <antonigiske> histo: It seems that ssh-agent doesnt remember it when not using sudo either.
[21:56] <antonigiske> ssh-agent
[21:58] <histo> antonigiske: http://askubuntu.com/questions/269140/how-to-user-multiple-ssh-keys-with-different-accounts-and-hosts

[22:04] <dark_soul> hi, i come from a rhel environment
[22:05] <dark_soul> and noticed when install ubuntu 12, sshd is not installed
[22:05] <dark_soul> does one just grab it from apt-get?
[22:05] <RobbyF> yup
[22:05] <RobbyF> but it should install in my experiences
[22:06] <jpds> dark_soul: Of course it's not installed.
[22:06] <jpds> dark_soul: apt-get install openssh-server
[22:06] <kboodu> dark_soul: Just do apt-get install openssh-server
[22:06] <dark_soul> okie
[22:06] <jpds> dark_soul: Ubuntu has a "nothing listening on a port by default" policy.
[22:06] <dark_soul> what firewall does it use?

[22:07] <jrtappers> Is there a way to send dolby pro logic audio out on ubuntu 12.10?
[22:08] <iceroot> jrtappers: dolby pro logic is part of the receiver and not the audio-source
[22:08] <dark_soul> so here's another 	quirky thing
[22:08] <iceroot> jrtappers: dolby pro logic is something which will be calculated
[22:08] <dark_soul> service ssh vs service sshd?
[22:08] <dark_soul> to start the ssh daemon?
[22:08] <jrtappers> iceroot, is there a way to do the equivelent of http://useranswer.com/answer/downmix-surround-to-dolby-pro-logic-at-the-osdriver-level-in-windows-7/
[22:08] <RobbyF> ssh
[22:09] <dark_soul> i see, ok
[22:09] <dark_soul> thanks!
[22:09] <iceroot> jrtappers: i dont know
[22:09]  * donttrustem_ thinks that no one is using Darling
[22:09] <iceroot> jrtappers: i would always use the receiver for something like that
[22:09] <iceroot> jrtappers: and when possible i dont want Pro logic, i want real 5.1 sound
[22:09] <bazhang> donttrustem_, whats darling, and please just ask and not /me
[22:10] <dark_soul> is ufw a ubuntu developed firewall?
[22:10] <dark_soul> or is it a derivative of something?
[22:10] <dark_soul> oh it seems to be a wrapper for iptables?
[22:10] <iceroot> dark_soul: its a frontend for iptables
[22:10] <donttrustem_> bazhang, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2105923
[22:10] <jrtappers> iceroot, this surround sound only has optical OUT, and red / white in

[22:11] <iceroot> jrtappers: optical can transport 5.1 for example
[22:11] <dark_soul> iceroot: can one use iptables command instead of ufw?
[22:11] <iceroot> dark_soul: sure

[22:14] <dark_soul> iceroot: does it also open the port 22 automatically? and as a followup if i remove the package does it clean up all that stuff as well?
[22:15] <iceroot> dark_soul: yes
[22:15] <dark_soul> okay thanks
[22:15] <iceroot> dark_soul: by default no port is blocked on ubuntu
[22:15] <iceroot> dark_soul: it is just not reachabble until a program is running on that port
[22:15] <vooze> Sorry for the stupid question, but Intel Atom, can that run x86 ubuntu programs?
[22:15] <iceroot> vooze: yes
[22:15] <dark_soul> iceroot: interesting
[22:15] <ovidius2> clemens: with radeon driver you could try "sudo echo OFF >  /sys/kernel/debug/vgaswitcheroo/switch"
[22:15] <iceroot> vooze: intel atom is a x85 cpu
[22:16] <iceroot> vooze: x86
[22:16] <hilbilly> yes, albeit slowly, vooze
[22:16] <hilbilly> I have ubuntu running on my atom netbook.
[22:16] <clemens> ovidius2: i just installed ubuntu 12.10 64 bit and a few programs ...
[22:16] <wastl> vooze works fine on my netbook
[22:17] <ovidius2> clemens: that should turn the discrete card off. i have to use it on my laptop here right now as well
[22:17] <hilbilly> No good answer about my ulimit question?
[22:17] <vooze> okay thanks :) its just a cheap laptop I want to buy for school (office etc.)
[22:17] <hilbilly> is it an acer netbook, vooze?
[22:18] <histo> antonigiske: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXR9uIUq6UM  instruction for you
[22:18] <fallout> why might find -exec not see a script in my PATH?
[22:19] <ole__> Hi!
[22:19] <clemens> ovidius2: i don't understand what you mean. are you using a tool that is automatically managing the switching or do you use bash?
[22:19] <ikonia> fallout: -exec means "execute" not a file type
[22:19] <vooze> hilbilly, no, Samsung N350
[22:19] <fallout> ikonia: yup, find . -type f -name '*.txt' -exec plot-batch {} \; plot-batch is not found here
[22:20] <ikonia> fallout: what ?
[22:20] <ovidius2> clemens: try it from bash first. if it works you add it to your startup scripts. that is what i have done
[22:20] <ole__> I'm looking for some help.. I cant install World of Warcraft on ubuntu.
[22:20] <ikonia> fallout: what do you expect to happen, the command "plot-batch" be run ?
[22:20] <fallout> ikonia: yes, for each file, the files are found but the command is not found
[22:20] <jatakk> Does anyone know if there's a way to have unfocused window scrolling in Xfce?
[22:20] <ikonia> fallout: is it in your $PATH ?
[22:21] <hilbilly> Let me know what you think of it after a week or so.
[22:21] <ikonia> fallout: use the full path to the binary
[22:21] <kboodu> fallout: You might be better off specifying the full path to the script.
[22:21] <fallout> ikonia: yes, it's exported in bashrc, and it works if I manually call it, or if I specifiy the full path
[22:22] <fallout> was just hoping to understand why find seems to ignore my PATH
[22:22] <ikonia> fallout: so if you do "echo $PATH" your path is currently set correctly ?
[22:22] <fallout> ikonia: yes, the path is correct
[22:22] <ikonia> fallout: just so I'm clear, how are you verifying that
[22:23] <fallout> ikonia: echo $PATH | tr ':' '\n', and I see it as ~/path/to/plot-batch
[22:23] <fallout> maybe since it's ~ and not the expanded full path?
[22:23] <ikonia> fallout: that shouldn't matter,
[22:24] <fallout> does work if I type 'plot-batch' anywhere on shell though
[22:24] <ikonia> fallout: try actually setting the path to /home/user/bin/whatever
[22:25] <fallout> ikonia: woah, that was it
[22:25] <ikonia> fallout: surprised
[22:25] <ClientAlive> does ubuntu 12.04 really support secure boot like I've heard?
[22:25] <ClientAlive> is it true?
[22:25] <ikonia> ClientAlive: no,
[22:25] <ikonia> ClientAlive: it's still a work in progress
[22:26] <ClientAlive> ikonia: ok, so then if my motherboard/ bios does not allow me to diassable it I'm screwed on an efi install?
[22:26] <ikonia> ClientAlive: no, efi is supported
[22:26] <ikonia> secure boot is something different
[22:27] <ClientAlive> ikonia: but when I boot the installation cd in efi mode it complains about not finding a key (I think it's the bios that does).
[22:27] <ikonia> ClientAlive: you need to understand the difference between EFI and secure boot and find out what your hardware does/needs
[22:28] <ClientAlive> doesn't secure boot stop the o/s from booting (if it's enableed and the o/s in question does not have a registered key)?
[22:29] <ikonia> ClientAlive: basically
[22:29] <fallout> ikonia: thank you very much for your help
[22:29] <ikonia> fallout: you fixed it yourself, pat yourself on the back
[22:31] <donttrustem_> how do I path cmake
[22:31] <ikonia> what ?
[22:31] <ClientAlive> so then if there is no way to dissable it in bios (in my particular bios) - I'm screwed on an ubuntu efi install? Or just screwed if I ever want to actually boot that install?
[22:31] <ClientAlive> I'm just trying to get to the bottom of this
[22:31] <ClientAlive> <- he doesn't want to answer that
[22:31] <ClientAlive> ikonia: doesn't
[22:31] <induz> how can i share a folder from ubuntu machine to a window 7 machine
[22:31] <induz> samba is installed
[22:31] <donttrustem_> I am trying  to compile using make but get this error Could not find compiler set in environment variable CC:
[22:31] <induz> but how to start samba
[22:32] <ikonia> ClientAlive: there are secure boot solutions for linux, I know someone who's used them with excellent sucesss, however my personal view is that they are flawed and "work arounds" so I don't suggest trying to use them
[22:32] <ikonia> donttrustem_: what are you trying to build ?
[22:33] <donttrustem_> ikonia, http://darling.dolezel.info/en/Build
[22:33] <ikonia> !info darling
[22:33] <donttrustem_> ikonia, CC=clang CXX=clang++ cmake ../.. -DSUFFIX=32
[22:33] <donttrustem_> make
[22:33] <ikonia> donttrustem_: cc=clang isn't going to work
[22:33] <ikonia> donttrustem_: that's setting your compiler to clang
[22:34] <induz> how to use samba to get a share on window 7 machine??
[22:34] <donttrustem_> ikonia, so I cannot compile this
[22:34] <ikonia> donttrustem_: you can
[22:34] <ikonia> donttrustem_: set CC to a valid compiler
[22:35] <ClientAlive> ikonia: ok. well, it is my situation. Too late to choose a different mobo and I will be running ubuntu on that machine (if it kills me to do so).
[22:35] <ikonia> ClientAlive: well good luck, I think you'll have a very disappointing experience
[22:35] <ikonia> ClientAlive: next time I suggest investigating hardware better before buying
[22:35] <donttrustem_> ikonia, hmm! now I am in unknown waters
[22:36] <com5> Hi all, if anyone can tell me how to run a bash script from a different directory that is included in the environment path I am all ears.
[22:37] <ikonia> com5: sorry, can you ask that
[22:37] <ovidius2> donttrustem: just leave out the cc=clang and cxx=clang and try again
[22:37] <induz> sama help needed

[22:39] <com5> Okay I have some scripts I want to run, so I put them in a folder under my home directory and then add that folder to the environment path but the script wont run
[22:39] <tgm4883> ncfi1013, you don't, you buy it
[22:39] <wilee-nilee> induz, you might try #samba
[22:39] <ikonia> com5: what is the error......
[22:40] <ncfi1013> its a backup
[22:40] <induz> I dont know how to use samba
[22:40] <ovidius2> induz: do you want to connect from your linux to an existing share on a windows machine?
[22:40] <bazhang> ncfi1013, dont ask for help with that
[22:40] <com5> ikonia, the error is that nothing happeneds
[22:40] <ikonia> com5: what do you expect to happen
[22:40] <wilee-nilee> induz, the channel see the (#)
[22:40] <com5> Oops *happens
[22:40] <com5> Errr I expect the script to run?
[22:41] <induz> ovidius2, yes
[22:41] <ikonia> com5: tell you what, come back when you want to share information with me without me pulling it out of you
[22:41] <ncfi1013> why?
[22:41] <induz> wilee-nilee, how to stat samba
[22:41] <ikonia> ncfi1013: it's illegal to copy games like that, so please don't ask again
[22:41] <ovidius2> induz: see here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Samba/SambaClientGuide

[22:42] <ikonia> ncfi1013: where did you get it....
[22:42] <ncfi1013> its just a backup

[22:42] <ncfi1013> but thanks anyway
[22:42] <ikonia> ncfi1013: did you take the backup ?

[22:45] <Jackmanisa> !o
[22:45] <Jackmanisa> !ops
[22:46] <ovidius2> donttrustem_: ok. the programm does need clang to be compiled. you have to install clang first.
[22:46] <donttrustem_zzzz> OK
[22:46] <donttrustem_zzzz> will do it now

[22:48] <com5> I have a script I put in a folder in my home directory I then added that directory to the environment path but when I try to run the script bash can not find it. What am I doing wrong?
[22:48] <ikonia> com5: can't find it
[22:48] <ikonia> com5: that's not what you said a minute ago - you said "it executed but did nothing with no error"
[22:49] <com5> ikonia, its okay please don't help me
[22:49] <histo> com5: did you log out and back in?
[22:49] <ikonia> com5: no problem - but please be clear to people when you are giving them info, as you are giving them different stories each time
[22:49] <MikeH> Hi guys, is there any kind of reasonably simple firewall type configuration web interface for Ubuntu? Something along the lines of pfSense that is installable?
[22:49] <com5> histo, yes many times
[22:49] <ikonia> !ufw | MikeH
[22:50] <bazhang> gufw MikeH
[22:50] <com5> I have been at this for weeks now and I think I am going mad
[22:51] <WHAT_UP2> com5: what's echo $PATH say, and how are you running the script?
[22:52] <com5> echo $PATH
[22:52] <com5> /usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/home/computer/bin:/home/computer/bin/system:/home/computer/bin/wireless
[22:52] <com5> I am running the script; ./script
[22:52] <ikonia> how is that ever going to work
[22:52] <WHAT_UP2> um
[22:53] <ikonia> you're in the wrong directory
[22:53] <WHAT_UP2> the ./ is wrong
[22:53] <com5> Oh yes I see
[22:53] <WHAT_UP2> if it's marked as executable, just scriptname should work?
[22:53] <com5> ikonia you are still officially not helping
[22:54] <WHAT_UP2> com5: why not just "script" ?
[22:56] <hxm> hello, i want to install a mail server and i find many software to do this, as webmail interface i want to use roundcube and can someone send me to a link about talking the most standard imapd and smtpd?
[22:56] <ikonia> hxm: they are all "standard"
[22:56] <ikonia> hxm: that is the point of them
[22:57] <hxm> yes i know any of them will work, but i wonder what is the most used, or which gives more support or has the biggest community, etc
[22:57] <histo> com5: is the script +x
[22:57] <ikonia> hxm: why don't you focus on "which will work how you want" "which is available for ubuntu" "which is laid out how I want"
[22:58] <hxm> well, you explained it better than me
[22:59] <histo> hxm: multiple domains or single?
[22:59] <hxm> multiple
[23:00] <histo> hxm: flurdy.com has a good howto
[23:00] <hxm> thanks, there i go
[23:00] <histo> hxm: or if you actually want to understand how everything works you can use workaround.org/ispmail   it's debian instructions but a good read if you want to understand everything.
[23:01] <histo> hxm: and there is also mail-delivery-stack
[23:01] <hxm> ah, the first one dont use dovecot, and better, i was reading dovecot configuration and is hard to understand (for me)
[23:01] <hxm> thanks again, i will have a base now
[23:01] <histo> hxm: dovecot config is jacked up imo
[23:02] <histo> hxm: also read the ubuntu server guide there is a link to the postfix page in the wiki that has virtual uses based on text files etc... read a lot then decide
[23:02] <hxm> ok
[23:03] <histo> hxm: I'm currently workign on one with dovecot and the configs are jacked up in my opinion for dovecot
[23:04] <hxm> seems so
[23:05] <c|oneman> I lost SSH connection while installing ubuntu-desktop, it was on the keyboard selection page
[23:05] <c|oneman> can I go back?
[23:06] <c|oneman> its still running in interactive or whatver you call it, i think
[23:06] <c|oneman> because i cant do any other installs, its locked
[23:11] <dark_soul> so in rhel, service iptables status, allows me to check the status
[23:11] <dark_soul> but when it appears i can't do service iptables in ubuntu
[23:11] <dark_soul> though i can do it with ssh
[23:11] <dark_soul> do i need to enable something
[23:11] <ikonia> dark_soul: it's wrapped in a script called "ufw" "ubuntu firewall"
[23:12] <dark_soul> okay, so i installed sshd and it install ufw
[23:12] <dark_soul> does it also enable ufw if you install openssh-sever?
[23:12] <ikonia> dark_soul: no
[23:12] <ikonia> dark_soul: ssh is nothing to do with ufw (iptableS)
[23:13] <dark_soul> it says "processing triggers for ufw" when i install or remove
[23:13] <dark_soul> does that mean its just adding an entry into ufw
[23:13] <ikonia> dark_soul: I suspect that is because it's not configured after you installed it
[23:14] <dark_soul> i got a clean install of ubuntu
[23:14] <dark_soul> i was told that ufw is not enabled by default
[23:14] <dark_soul> correct?
[23:14] <ikonia> dark_soul: it is enabled by default
[23:14] <dark_soul> oh, but just completely open?
[23:14] <usr13> dark_soul: Why are you using ufw?  Are you sure you really need it?
[23:14] <ikonia> dark_soul: no, default rules
[23:15] <dark_soul> i thought ufw is whats used by ubuntu
[23:15] <dark_soul> i have to write a script that does some checks
[23:15] <usr13> dark_soul: By default it will be open to all.
[23:15] <dark_soul> it has to run on both rhel and ubuntu
[23:15] <ikonia> dark_soul: it is
[23:15] <dark_soul> and i'm having a little problem with ubuntu
[23:15] <ikonia> dark_soul: you can still interact with iptables directly on both OS's
[23:16] <raedwa01> I'm having a problem with 12.10 server.  I am getting a hard lock and reboot with "mcelog: Unknown CPU type vendor 2 family 12 model 1" showing in the mcelog.  Since the CPU is apparently too new, where do i turn for help?
[23:16] <widad> Missing my ubuntu. It is damaged and i'm working with windows
[23:16] <ikonia> raedwa01: what is the cpu ?
[23:17] <dark_soul> ikonia: i was hoping to use "service iptables status" but it appears ubnuntu doesn't like that
[23:17] <usr13> dark_soul: iptables is not really a service.
[23:17] <ikonia> dark_soul: they use different init systems, that is not a good shared option
[23:17] <crf> hi, I was here earlier. I have a problem with the screen on my laptop going to black after about 15 seconds of not using it. I think it is the screensaver blanking the screen. I have in the power settings, blank screen=never
[23:18] <usr13> dark_soul: iptables is a tool for packet filtering and network address translation.
[23:18] <usr13> at the kernel level
[23:19] <dark_soul> usr13: ah yes, you are right, i remember that
[23:19] <dark_soul> so it is not a service
[23:19] <Orbitrix> is there any Music Player/Media Manager for linux that supports Album 'compilations' properly using the "Album Artist" tag?  I cant believe Rhythmbox hasnt fix this bug in over 4-5 years....
[23:19] <dark_soul> i need to figure a lowest common denominator on whether its running or not
[23:19] <dark_soul> on both rhel/ubuntu
[23:19] <ikonia> dark_soul: iptables
[23:20] <dark_soul> the output requires some text manipulation in a script for validation
[23:20] <usr13> dark_soul: service --status-all
[23:20] <Orbitrix> Rythmbox is completely useless to me without being able to browse by Album Artist.  The devs havent fixed this known bug in 5 years.  Whats a superior media player?
[23:20] <dark_soul> where as service iptables status, gives out a simple line
[23:20] <dark_soul> makes it easier to validate
[23:20] <rypervenche> Orbitrix: Mocp :)
[23:20] <Orbitrix> thank you
[23:22] <Orbitrix> hmm looks like it browses by folder structure by default
[23:22] <Orbitrix> does not solve my problem, altho I asume its configurable?
[23:22] <Orbitrix> i need to be able to browse my media by ID3 tags, specificly "Album Artist" (not simply "Artist")
[23:23] <knobydobs> I have a perixx mx-2000 gaming mouse which is refusing to work with Ubuntu. I have looked at the raw data (or lack of it) from the terminal using sudo cat and I have nothing whatsoever coming through. I keep having to borrow mice to move my cursor.
[23:25] <dark_soul> usr13: okay, so i guess i'll have to create two separate checks, ubuntu = ufw status
[23:25] <dark_soul> thanks
[23:30] <williamAmaral> alou
[23:32] <budovi> hey there, has anybody clue when qt 4.8.5 could be avaliable for ubuntu?
[23:37] <leo03> hey
[23:38] <dark_soul> so if i do: ufw allow from 192.168.0.0/24 to any port 22 proto tcp, how can i later remove/undo this entry?
[23:39] <dark_soul> i see a "deny" but i'm guess that'll just change an entry to deny, when what i really want is the entry to no longer exists priopr to the allow
[23:39] <budovi> there is delete command ...
[23:40] <leo03> can anybody recommend which version of ubuntu to use..i want to install it along with windows 7
[23:40] <dark_soul> budovi: can one replace the word "allow" with "delete" and it'll remove exactly the right one?
[23:40] <dark_soul> i dont want to do the "number" route cause that requires more script checking
[23:40] <dark_soul> (i'm writing  a script)
[23:41] <budovi> dark_soul: i guess it should work, or list the rules, find out number and that will definitely work
[23:41] <k1l> leo03: 12.04 if you want a long support
[23:41] <lnakot> How to set ACPI throttling, to slow down CPU ?
[23:42] <leo03> K1l: thanks..can we share the file system on both windows 7 and ubuntu
[23:44] <dark_soul> budovi: ugh, it doesn't work
[23:44] <dark_soul> i gotta do numbered, thats more headache for me, cause now i gotta do a check to see what numbered the rule was assigned
[23:46] <knobydobs> I have 3 raw HID inputs from my gaming mouse but none of them show anything when I move the mouse...
[23:47] <dark_soul> okay thanks
[23:49] <deadweasel> i have 12.04 x64 with an ati 6770 dual monitors, one is 5 yrs newer than the other and aspect ratio is different.  Running expanded screen, flicker at bottom right...  <---realizes this is probably the most annoying post ever, considering all machines flickered back in the day.
[23:55] <budovi> can somebody please redirect me on some information how to debug kernel freeze in ubuntu?
[23:57] <yugnip> budovi, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging
[23:59] <Shining_KoW210> Umm
[23:59] <Shining_KoW210> Is this where I can get help with Ubuntu?
[23:59] <knobydobs> Hello, I have a perixx gaming mouse which is basically 2 HID keyboards and an HID raw input, unfortunately, none of these inputs are recognized by going to the device file in /Dev/inputs and using sudo cat. I have already edited HID.d in an attempt to let the mouse be recognized but to no avail.
