[00:01] hello. I have an nvidia geforce gt640 and running 12.10 fresh install. can someone help me install the 310.44 nvidia driver [00:02] ddssc: What have you done? [00:02] javier, good luck with that. do you happen to also run an optimus system? [00:02] tyrog, what the other guy told me. added his repo. updated. upgraded. installed nvidia-319 . fubar'd [00:02] I told you not to upgrade from xorg edgers [00:02] no. why do you say good luck? [00:03] You did it, you risked your system. Now ppa purge, or reinstall ubuntu [00:03] tyrog, how do I ppa purge? [00:03] Boot ubuntu into a terminal with network [00:04] tyrog, aye. got terminal. [00:04] for now [00:04] it tends to throw random whatevertheheck errors tho [00:04] in the reading that I have done, which was sporadic at best, I read that I can update the headers and the kernel and all should be right with the world. of course I have read a lot of stuff that wasn't accurate as well [00:05] ddssc: now 'sudo apt-get install ppa-purge' [00:05] should I just add the xswat repos and just grab the nvidia current instead? === joey__ is now known as jmite [00:05] tyrog, got it [00:05] Has anybody been able to get AMD Catalyst (fglrx) drivers working on an AMD/Intel Hybrid laptop in 13.04? [00:05] now what? [00:06] 'sudo ppa-purge ppa:xorg-edgers' [00:08] is this a good enough way to go http://techhamlet.com/2013/04/install-nvidia-drivers-in-ubuntu-12-10/ [00:08] Where can I find the default color scheme for gnome-terminal? [00:10] javier: Install Ubuntu 13.04, it is being released today [00:11] I used wubi since I am not all that familiar with installing and setup from an iso. so how do I upgrade to 13.04 from 12.10 === jesus is now known as Guest35356 [00:12] Then go to the "Additional Drivers" tab in the Software Sources software, install nvidia-310-updates driver, reboot, done! [00:12] tyrog, ok thanks. unity seems to have unfucked itself now :) [00:12] pardon the french [00:12] ddssc: lol [00:12] You really need the 319 driver? [00:13] tyrog, if you have any way to make my hdmi work, I'm listening [00:13] tyrog thanks. worth a shot [00:13] optimus machine, geforce 525m and intel combined [00:14] ddssc: what graphics driver is currently installed? [00:15] tyrog, Driver Unknown Experience Standard [00:16] ddssc: after purging, you restarted right? [00:16] all of a sudden audio does not work on my machine. pavucontroll does not see the card but lspci does; any tips? [00:16] tyrog, yep [00:16] ddssc: re-add xorg-edgers [00:17] Ubuntu 13.04 release channel which one? [00:17] bkovacs: #ubuntu-release-party [00:17] thanks [00:18] ddssc: then install by yourself the nvidia-graphics-driver that matches 319.12 version === Guest35356 is now known as xexu [00:18] tyrog, I do that through apt-get ? [00:19] I take it 13.04 is still rolling out to the mirrors. I haven't found one with anything but beta-2 yet. [00:19] tyrog, because if I do apt-get install without upgraded repo I get "package not found" error [00:19] My card is 00:14.2 Audio device [0403]: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) [1002:4383] (rev 40) [00:20] ddssc: yes. 'sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-graphics-drivers-319' . see if this works [00:20] tyrog, ok [00:21] RyanTG: Currently the ISOs are being tested [00:22] tyrog, unable to locate package nvidia-graphics-drivers-319 [00:22] tyrog, I do see nvidia-319 and nvidia-319 dev and nvidia-settings-319 . I installed nvidia-319 before [00:23] <_zoom_1> how to create virtual interface using NetworkManager [00:23] <_zoom_1> ? [00:23] ddssc: sudo apt-get install nvidia-319 nvidia-settings-319 [00:24] hi [00:25] Anyone here knows how monitorize IP addresses in a public chat, using Tor? I need help with that program [00:25] I have everything configured, but in the logbox doesn't appear anything [00:27] is there a channel for questions about / problems with 13.04? [00:27] xexu, Tor is not a "program for monitorizing IP adresses" [00:28] blob4000, #ubuntu+1 till tomorrow [00:28] is it not?? Oh sorry... [00:28] I work in a public chat, so I need monitorizing the activity of "bad" users [00:29] xexu that should be done server side [00:29] ddssc: installed? [00:29] tyrog, now my unity is fubar'd as per before. no left side/top menu. I can only use right mouse menu. also still Driver Unknown Experience Standard. [00:29] asdf [00:30] ddssc: after installing the driver, reboot [00:30] tyrog, yes this is after reboot [00:30] mmm so is there any program that can do that?? [00:30] ddssc: Disable xorg-edgers (DONT purge it) [00:30] xexu, there are irc scripts that can ban users when using blacklisted words. google it [00:31] tyrog, didn't do anything other than install nvidia-319 and reboot [00:32] also nvidia-settings-319 [00:32] now disable the xorg edgers ppa without purging it [00:32] and add this one: ppa:canonical-x/x-staging [00:32] how do i upgrade from 12.10 to 13.04 or do I have to wait until tomorrow [00:32] !upgrade | javier [00:32] javier: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [00:32] ddssc, I'm reffering to a chat on the internet, like a webpage, there are a lot of users, and most of them have 2 or 3 accounts, so I want to ban them with their IP, cause they have different nicks [00:33] javier: Better wait as upgrades are being tested right now [00:33] xexu, well that depends on your chat software, doesn't it? [00:34] ddssc: sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:someppa/ppa to remove xorg-edgers [00:35] tyrog, sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa ? [00:36] yes [00:36] ok [00:37] ddsc, I don't know if you use facebook, and their apps, so facebook has a few games, with a chat also, it works with flash, and the IP, that I can monitorize with tcpdump are dynamic IP (I guess), so I want to know if there are any method to monitorized the static IP, for banning the bad users. [00:37] tyrog, added ppa:canonical-x/x-stagin [00:38] now 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' then reboot [00:39] xexu, tyrog, sigh... here goes [00:39] If I install proprietary drivers without the use of package management, is that going to cause probems when I update ubuntu? [00:39] lol, got sound working and nearly jumped out of the room :D [00:39] xexu, sry no idea about that. unless you're running the app on your system I don't think you can monitor other users bro :) [00:40] hi again. I have 310.14 installed. How do I correct the overscan issue I am having? [00:40] ok, thanks for your help ;) [00:40] note to self....changing the audio output to the correct output while system is at 300% volume is not a good thing .... [00:40] I have monitorized their Ip with wireshark filtering the domain [00:40] but i'll try [00:40] hi ,guys; in linux system ,is there a sofeware which can works like IDM [00:41] xexu, try #wireshark [00:41] If I install proprietary graphics drivers without package management, could there be problems when ubuntu updates packages? [00:43] junkNown: nvidia or ati? [00:43] tyrog: ati [00:43] junkNown: No problem. Follow the tutorial to manually install the drivers that is in the ubuntu community documentation [00:44] by the way, why do you want to install the drivers manually? [00:44] tyrog: I can manually install them and they work fine, but when installed with apt, unity breaks and won't load. [00:45] tyrog: but even if I get them working manually, when I install ubuntu updates.... it breaks it completely [00:45] junkNown: what is the gfx card? ubuntu version? and driver versions you are installing? [00:45] join /wireshark [00:45] ups [00:46] tyrog: by breaks it completely, i mean i get a blank purple screen right after grub that doesn't go away. The gfx card is raedon hd 6950, ubuntu 12.10. I install the latest, 13.4 catalyst driver. [00:47] tyrog: another thing worth mentioning, my cpu has integrated graphics. I'm concerned that could be part of the problem. [00:47] hi ,guys; in linux system ,is there a sofeware which can works like IDM ,thank you [00:48] Anyone want to help me diagnose a random crash event? I was playing minecraft, and then BAM, it went to a terminal-esque screen (light gray on black), and said some things. I checked the system for log files, and found the relevant log: http://pastebin.com/daMRet8A [00:48] so it does not appear that I have an overscan slider in the nvidia 310.14 driver from the software sources installed driver [00:48] junkNown: Did you follow the instructions from the documentation? [00:49] ubuntu community documentation, i mean [00:49] gintonicool, have you tried jdownloader?? [00:49] !ati [00:49] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [00:49] jdownloader ?i've heard it [00:50] XEXU,does jdownloader work well ? [00:50] junkNown: start reading from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI#Manually_installing_Catalyst_12.6.2C_special_case_for_Intel.2BAC8-AMD_hybrid_graphics [00:51] yes [00:51] tyrog, updated. upgraded. still same empty deskto unknown driver. :/ [00:51] jdownloader works in wine ? [00:51] I've never tried IDM, but jdownloader i think it's similar [00:51] ddssc: sorry, cant help you further, as I don't have an optimus card :P [00:52] You can install jdownloader without wine [00:52] tyrog, when running update I got many 404 errors. for canonical-x/x-whatever in particular [00:52] tyrog: that is the method I have used. Like I said, it works fine until I download any ubuntu software updates [00:52] It has support in ubuntu [00:52] xexu, can jdownloader use proxy? [00:52] any ideas? [00:52] junkNown: Yep, each time a new update to the kernel arrives, it should break [00:52] because it doesnt create a KMS [00:53] any idea in how to share my internet with wifi direct? [00:54] yes GinTonicool [00:54] tyrog: So is there any easy solution other than avoid updating the kernel? If I uninstall manually, update, then reinstall.... will that work? [00:54] junkNown: Try the method right above from that [00:54] basically these are the steps [00:55] sudo apt-get install dh-make dh-modaliases execstack [00:55] sudo sh amd-driver-installer-13-4-x86.x86_64.run --buildpkg Ubuntu/quantal [00:55] so i want to clone my hard drive. is it best to do it off a live cd? [00:56] then it should give you an error. If it does, do 'sudo apt-get -f install' [00:56] tyrog do you know how I can fix the overscan? I do not have the slider in the nvidia settings [00:56] xexu ,thank you ,i'll try [00:56] javier: No :P , I don't have nvidia card, sorry [00:56] ok your welcome ;) [00:56] ok, thanks [00:57] tyrog: alright i'll give this a shot! thanks [00:58] do you happen to know why i get a hang when i use nvidia-settings --assing CurrentMetaMode = "DFP-1: 1920x1080 {ViewPortOut=1850x1055+25+40}" [00:58] javier: it should be a setting on the tv [00:58] tyrog, now I can't even do purge-ppa. woopty doo [00:58] there is not a setting on the tv [00:59] javier: there is if you have a good tv [00:59] i have a samsung and the options are just scan or 16:9 [00:59] ddssc: whats the problem with ppa-purge? what are you purging? [00:59] there isn't an overscan option or a picture resize [01:00] when I was running ubuntu before there was a slider in the nvidia settings manager to adjust the overscan, and there isn't one now [01:00] it's not labeled that, but there is a setting [01:00] i have a samsung tv [01:02] tyrog, xorg-edgers obviously. but now the other thing you told me to add and upgrade to is throwing errors. [01:02] tyrog, canonical-x/x-staging 404 no found etc [01:03] Anybody familiar with vsftp? I'm trying to figure out how to edit it so I can access the WWW folder and upload file there through my FTP client [01:03] ddssc: that wasn't supposed to happen. Its a normal ppa, just like any other :P [01:03] well i just went thru all the options and the only one that refers to picture size are as I listed. I know it is an overscan issue because in 4:3 the sides and tops are still cut off [01:03] And concerning xorg edgers, you cant purge it, because you disabled it. Re-enable it and purge [01:03] tyrog, well... it's happening. Warning apt-get update failed for some reason. FOR. SOME. REASON. :)) [01:03] lool [01:03] javier: yep, which is why you have to tell the tv to not cut off the edges [01:04] ok. I have a samsung 56 inch [01:04] and not sure how to do that [01:04] fuck it. I'll just use windows... been mucking about 4 days with this thing with no luck. now I'll most likely have to install ubuntu again just so I can try that tutorial thing I should've done in the first place... [01:04] javier: what model [01:05] ddssc: You are giving up too soon [01:05] tyrog, ye well 4 days trying to get my graph card to work are a lot in my world :F [01:05] i need help with darmok [01:05] I have just installed Ubuntu 13.04. Should I ask my question here, or in ubuntu+1? [01:05] its a samsung lcd [01:06] ddssc: The drivers are in beta. There are people with issues on the web, some of them solved. Just do as they did [01:06] ddssc: what card [01:06] geforce525M , optimus [01:06] oh [01:06] well that explains why you want the newest drivers [01:07] I have just installed 13.04. Everything is set up, but I can't change the mouse sensitivity under mouse settings. Just the Left/right and the toubbleclick [01:07] fyksen: +1 , ubuntu 13.04 is not officially released yet [01:07] actually I just want my hdmi to work. don't care about nvidia or 3d or games or anything.. [01:07] tyrog, ty [01:07] tyrog: This method didn't work either, log in screen comes up, then log in and I get no unity. :( [01:07] junkNown: do you have the package 'linux-headers-generic' installed? [01:08] i forgot about that one :P [01:08] tyrog: yeah :( [01:08] junkNown: whats the output of uname -a [01:08] junkNown: did sudo aticonfig --initial ? [01:09] tyrog: yes i did [01:09] xexu ,are you still here ? [01:09] Ben64: Linux jarvis 3.5.0-17-generic #28-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 9 19:31:23 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [01:09] junkNown: do 'sudo amdconfig --adapter=all --initial -f' instead [01:09] whats the output? [01:10] so is this cutoff because of the hdmi or can it be resolved using a dvi? [01:10] can jdownloader work in debian,and which edition can work in debian 2.6.32? [01:10] tyrog: Uninitialised file found, configuring. [01:10] Using /etc/X11/xorg.conf [01:10] Saving back-up to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.fglrx-2 [01:10] before reboot === jagger|away is now known as jagger [01:10] w8 [01:11] javier: hdmi is dvi, but if you have dvi on the tv, it probably won't cut that off [01:11] javier: but i'm telling you, there is a setting in the tv somewhere to disable overscan [01:11] just looked. I don;t have one [01:12] man i wish there was. i have been thru every setting and there isnt one [01:12] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro [01:12] i think the wiki is broken [01:12] cause [01:12] MacBookPro (last edited 2008-08-06 17:00:24 by localhost) [01:12] junkNown: whats the output of 'glxinfo |grep OpenGL' ? [01:12] that makes no sense [01:12] javier: you must have missed something [01:12] phantomcircuit: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:12] so i need to do it at the pc as I have done when i was using my built in ati [01:12] Ben64, um, ATi devices have overscan issues even on Windows, and have to be fixed by settings in drivers [01:12] nothing to do with TVs [01:12] (most TVs don't have overscan settings for HDMI anyway) [01:12] it just dawned on me. it's 2013 and linux is still not desktop ready. :( [01:13] ddssc: untrue [01:13] Ben64, it's pretty true for me [01:13] Mavrik: actually, almost every tv by default cuts off 5% on every side [01:13] tyrog: X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation) [01:13] ddssc: it's because the dual gpu thing was tacked on and is different on many manufacturers [01:13] Ben64, mhm, but ATi devices have some additional overscan enabled by default [01:13] no idea why [01:13] junkNown: now that you have done that command, reboot again [01:13] a common problem :\ [01:14] then come here tell the result [01:14] ok [01:14] Ben64, yes, that and : http://linuxfonts.narod.ru/why.linux.is.not.ready.for.the.desktop.current.html [01:14] !fud [01:14] Please do not fall prey to, or spread FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) - it is not welcome here! Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear,_uncertainty_and_doubt [01:15] ddssc: stop bitching plz :P . Your problem is nvidia's fault, not linus' or canonical [01:16] ddssc: why don't you ask on the nvidia channel? [01:16] tyrog, I beg to differ. there's just too many people 'bitching' at linux as a desktop machine. I've been using it as server tho and have no complaints of course [01:16] desktop system that is [01:16] ddssc: What statistics support that 'too many' argument? [01:17] tyrog, oh I don't know, irl I've met at least 5 people who tried linux as desktop and failed miserably. and I don't even hang around linux-y people :) [01:17] !ot [01:17] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [01:17] aye [01:17] By the way, if you feel Linux is not ready for desktop, why are you testing it for desktop? [01:17] will do np [01:18] tyrog, was thinking of using it as my main os. [01:18] ddssc: Many people here are using Ubuntu as their ONLY desktop os [01:18] tyrog: still looks the same. no unity. [01:18] So their opinion must count, doesn't it? [01:18] teehee [01:18] guys [01:18] take it somewhere else [01:20] how to update paperwhite to 5.3.5? [01:21] junkNown: The solution proposed in the Hybrid AMD/Intel section of the tutorial is probably your best bet then :P [01:21] junkNown: What driver were you using before 13.4 came out today? [01:22] is 13.04 out already? [01:22] no [01:22] ups [01:22] to make clear: AMD 13.4 driver xD [01:23] oh [01:23] tyrog: I don't remember [01:23] lol [01:23] junkNown: was it proprietary, or opensource one? [01:23] tyrog: proprietary for sure [01:24] from repository, or AMD website? [01:24] d [01:24] oops [01:24] if i have an ext4 partition, will it be possible to expand it? [01:24] yes [01:24] johnjohn1011: providing you have space for doing that, yes [01:25] i am trying to move my ubuntu system to another hard drive. wife got me a 2 tb drive [01:25] i have no clue what to do. i don't want to reinstall [01:25] tyrog: From AMD website, I had installed it manually without creating the deb package files. It worked fine until I updated ubuntu this morning. [01:25] johnjohn1011: gparted can copy a partition from one drive to another [01:26] so do the copy and then resize after that? [01:26] johnjohn1011: yeah, then you'd need to reinstall grub, and either take out the old drive or change UUIDs [01:26] junkNown: Yep. You have to do the same for 13.4, unfortunately. [01:27] old drive is six years old. [01:27] Hello, I am having a problem with a package of firefox, can someone help me if I put the pastebin with the errors? [01:27] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5599825/ [01:27] Here there is. [01:27] would it be better to use somthing like clonezilla? [01:27] tyrog: So then, should I always uninstall the amd drivers manually before I do any kernel updates and then reinstall? Would that be a workaround? [01:28] johnjohn1011: nah [01:28] junkNown: you'd have to install amd after kernel [01:29] junkNown: or... get the drivers from apt-get so they update automagically [01:29] ben64: ok. i guess i'll download gparted [01:29] johnjohn1011: but if it's your boot partition, you need to do that from a livecd [01:30] Ben64: :( this is what i just went through with tyrog... apt-get doesn't work... manually creating deb packages doesn't work... nothing works except installing manually [01:30] Ben64: i figured i would use a live cd [01:30] junkNown: why doesn't apt-get work? [01:30] i saw some stuff about using dd [01:30] junkNown: weird, considering there are some success cases with that approach :P [01:31] Someone can help me? [01:31] Ben64: I have absolutely no idea why... I use apt-get, it installs, I reboot and get login screen. login... and unity is not in existence... i'm in like low graphics mode or something. [01:31] What do you need help with Spaceghost? [01:32] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5599825/ [01:32] There is a package broken or something that doesn't let me install anything else. [01:32] hey guys === jagger is now known as jagger|away [01:32] was hoping someone could help me [01:33] Wow that's quite a bit unhappy install there [01:33] can i copy/paste my problem from #lubuntu ? [01:33] without causing a spam? [01:33] karldotm: why? I tried deleting it, downloading again and always there is the same problem and error. [01:33] Well, I mean the unmet dependencies, the perl errors, the locale problems [01:33] question regarding two CIFS shares not mounting through fstab on bootup on lubuntu-core [01:34] And you tried the apt-get -f install ? [01:34] you are doing this as root I assume .. ? [01:34] Yes that it was it shows. [01:34] or via sudo? [01:34] tyrog, ben64: IS there a way I can completely disable the intel integrated gpu to see if that helps? [01:35] junknown: does your motherboard support turning it off? [01:35] I tried it there in the pastebin. [01:35] junkNown: trying to see some if there is some workaround available [01:35] machstem: I looked into that, the options are auto, always enabled, and enable only if nothing is in PEG slot. [01:36] every1 busy helping others? lemme know when someone can help me plz, been bugging me for two days now (googling) [01:36] O [01:36] junknown: Dell ?

[01:37] umm [01:37] there might be a dip on the board that would allow you [01:37] junkNown: what is your ati gfx card model? [01:37] what kind of motherbord ? [01:38] tyrog: amd radeon HD 6950 [01:38] machstem: weird considering that the driver works fine via the mannual approach, so the problem shouldn't be motherboard/bios based [01:38] machstem: Gigabyte z68AP-D3 [01:38] pm your original problem, been dealing with lots of weird misex gpu lately [01:38] machstem: i'm looking at manual right now [01:39] tyrog: sry, was answering him based on wanting to disable the card; i have no history (1st time on IRC on this box) [01:39] *no history of his problem [01:39] pm me the issues junknown [01:39] i'm trying to strip down my 12.04 installation, mainly DE and DE related packages. Anyone know a good how-to, or a can point me in the right direction? (basically stripping it down to LXDE and a few graphical applications) [01:40] ant_man, i just built my lubuntu using a mini.iso minimal install [01:40] then just installed lubuntu-core and opted out of alot of it [01:40] junkNown: what about the drivers from the repositories? do they work? [01:40] tyrog: doesn't display on both adapters? [01:42] Back. Sorry. I hate windows adware [01:42] machstem: As far as i know Xorg is booting corrupted, not using the driver at all [01:42] so mach.. what's up? [01:42] hey karl [01:42] sec, ill copy/paste my issue if yu can help [01:42] machstem: will I be able to easily remote unity without any weirdness or conflict? i guess that was my question from the start :) [01:43] !nounity [01:43] Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use GNOME 3 with the !unity shell by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, from 12.10 an up install the "ubuntu-gnome-desktop" package. From 11.04 to 12.04, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown. Using Natty? See !classic [01:43] you want to install unity ? [01:43] here is my problem: [01:43] trying to figure out why my fstab wont mount my two NAS shares, both public/guest account (no credentials needed) using cifs [01:43] karldotm: it's weird, I can't login via su, the same password doesn't work by su way maybe because with sudo I am logging to space instead of root (?). [01:43] !root | Spaceghost [01:43] Spaceghost: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [01:43] when i try to access them, tells me i dont have the permissions [01:44] i can sudo mount -a manually [01:44] but won't work at boot [01:44] spaceghost sudo /bin/su - [01:44] don't do what karldotm said [01:44] i installed lubuntu core [01:44] overtop of a mini.iso installation with minimal install [01:44] You are confusing me. [01:44] Spaceghost: start at the beginning. what are you trying to do [01:44] well, I suppose some people aren't safe with a root prompt [01:44] Ben64: install a package. [01:44] again..

[01:48] paul137: does it ping ? [01:48] Ben64: how can I solve it? [01:48] uninstall firefox and retry ? [01:48] i dont know how to do this [01:48] And what is supossed to do with the root password? [01:48] sudo apt-get autoremove firefox ? [01:48] Spaceghost: you don't need root password for it [01:48] dont try it, if im wrong lol [01:48] just throwing out suggestions [01:49] machstem: I deleted the cache and download it again but I had the same problem. [01:49] It's like that package is broken. [01:49] might want to sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-firefox-installer [01:49] but i'm not sure what you did to get it like that [01:49] I am using 12.04 by the way. [01:49] would sudo locate firefox show you which ? [01:50] my pc is saying openssh is running but grep says deamon is not [01:50] does anyone have any tips for my issue? lol [01:50] is the port available ? [01:50] as in [01:50] does it give you a port already used ? [01:50] Ben64: the same problem, it forces to me to do apt-get -f install before doing anything with packages. [01:51] hmm [01:51] what does the software center let you do ? [01:51] in the GUI ? [01:51] can you find and see about removing it through there ? [01:51] i had an issue yesterday with removing an app through apt-get [01:51] Spaceghost: if you are using 12.04, why is the output you pasted with references to quantal? === dominic_ is now known as mdih [01:52] but it did its thing using the gui ubuntu software center [01:52] Hi [01:52] tyrog <--- ok, so i wasn't crazy [01:52] tyrog: what is the problem? [01:52] paul37 I sent you some queries [01:52] Spaceghost: 12.04 is 'precise', 12.10 is 'quantal' [01:52] How can I check what version I have? [01:53] does anyone have a tip for fstab ? [01:53] please [01:53] rly ansy about this stupid problem [01:53] i know it's something simple [01:53] I am sure that I download the 12.04 because it was the LTS one. [01:53] i was able to ping my host computr [01:53] machstem, yeah the fstab wiki or man [01:53] It wil be in /etc/os-release [01:53] Spaceghost: /etc/os-release [01:53] Spaceghost: then there is a problem with your repositories, since they are refering to 'quantal-updates' [01:54] i've got both ufw's on ACCEPT both in and outgoing [01:54] are you sure you didn't upgrade to Ubuntu 12.10 (the 'quantal' release)?

[02:28] junkNown: I told you about the headers previously, you said you had them installed [02:28] junkNown: cool.. just make sure to get linux-headers-generic [02:28] Spaceghost: its been a while since ive had that problem... it'd help if you knew what you did originally [02:29] tyrog: Yes, you said linux-headers-generic. That didn't work. But for some reason linux-headers-3.5.0-17 worked, unless i'm mistaken somewhere.

[02:34] tyrog: errrr multiple header files [02:34] junkNown: you need the headers for the version you are booting in order to fglrx work correctly [02:34] junkNown: There is no problem with that [02:34] usr13: 100% [02:34] Just like there is no problem with having multiple kernels installed [02:35] apt will probably tell you to remove some packages with autoremove next time you run it for something [02:35] Ben64: junkNown Ok. I stand corrected. [02:36] junkNown: what is the kernel you are running at the moment? [02:37] tyrog: 3.5.0-27-generic [02:37] tyrog: wtf!.... [02:37] that doesn't make sense [02:38] having generic installed, fglrx didn't work and now you install the headers for -17 and it works? oh lord === usedRAM is now known as coolstar [02:39] tyrog: hmmm... maybe i installed ubuntu today off of an old disk [02:40] junkNown: anyway, you have the headers for -27 installed as well right?

[02:46] the ping is successful, I've just never seen it before [02:46] Ben64: but Xswat is always updated with the latest for NVIDIA. The same doesn't happen for AMD though [02:47] devral: Does it happen for every site you try to ping?

[03:10] will it install over the debian install now [03:10] bassgeisha, not by default ... you have to select your install options [03:10] cfhowlett: Ubuntu 12.04, the default Unity flavor. I'm using Advanced Settings in order to select a theme that's normally not there. [03:11] casual_llama, dang. I REALLY need my coffee. thought you were in xubuntu as I am. Sorry. [03:11] ok, problem fixed by reboot. I found one problem. When the problem exists, the user gdm does not run pulaseaudio --start and only my user is running pulseaudio --start. what can cause gdm user failed to run it? thanks. [03:11] casual_llama, ask again in channel since I don't know [03:11] cfhowlett: Haha, thanks for trying. [03:11] help! ;) [03:11] sgo11: if i were you id just remove pulseaudio [03:13] Ben64, I don't know much thing about this. I thought pulseaudio was required. will remove pulseaudio be OK? What sound server will be used instead? I did not install pulseaudio by myself by purpose. Does it exist by default? thanks a lot. [03:13] To all: Is there a way of changing the text under files and folders from black to something that would work with a dark background pic without changing the entire system theme? [03:14] sgo11: remove will be fine, purge will break things, and yeah pulse is installed by default [03:15] Ben64, if remove is fine, what sound server will be used instead? I thought pulseaudio is the application/server which provide sound. thanks. [03:16] sgo11: pulse works on top of alsa, so you'd still have alsa. just be sure not to purge it [03:16] Hello there.

[03:18] I can play this file fine, but couldn't copy, not even in other folder on same drive. [03:18] sgo11: it provides some features that some people like, but i find it to be more of a problem than its worth, so i remove it on my systems [03:18] hey...anyone good with apache alias redirects at all?

I will simply keep it then. maybe it's better to find out why gdm failed to start it. :) [03:21] Ben64, thanks a lot for your help. :) [03:21] sgo11: do you _really_ need an icon? :D [03:22] can anybody tell me what a good resource for learning the command line is [03:22] Ben64, kind of. I have some sound extension which show music control and status under sound icon. something like that. I used to it. I am not sure if this will break that extension or not. [03:24] Can i assume that file has been downloaded in a area of hard disk where there are bad sectors? [03:24] it's actually gnome-shell extension, just related to sound. integrate music with the sound icon. something like that.

[03:35] Spaceghost, wow. facing such errors, I would sudo apt-get purge firefox, sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get autoremove then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install firefox [03:36] aneks: mount -a [03:36] aneks: sudo mount -a [03:37] usr13, just did that, though the /media/windows automounts on boot [03:37] aneks: Did you remount or reboot?

I think [03:40] cfhowlett: I found the way to resolve it. [03:40] It is: [03:40] now if I do "groups" it'll display all the groups im in, except www-data but if I do "groups JLT" it'll display www-data as a group I'm in... this is strange behavior? [03:40] JLT: i think you have to log out/back in for groups changes to take affect [03:40] apt-get autoremove firefox-globalmenu [03:40] cfhowlett: ^ [03:40] I'll try that dr_willis [03:41] Because firefox is not installed but firefox-globalmenu yes. [03:41] Spaceghost, the hardest problems, the simplest solutions ... [03:41] I tried all simplest solutions. [03:41] Finally this one worked. [03:41] But still I can't install firefox. [03:42] usr13, when I do ls -l of /media the folder windows looks like this drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24576 Apr 19 03:09 windows [03:42] Spaceghost: that post mentioned a conflct with a kubuntu-firefox installer package.. remove that pacakge perhaps? [03:42] dr_willis: how? [03:43] Spaceghost: same as youy remove any other package.. look at the errors it said.. conflicts with 'kubuntu-firefox-installer' [03:43] Spaceghost you're in ubuntu? but you have a kubuntu package? [03:43] I installed Kubuntu. [03:43] perhaps you should just RUN the kubuntu-firefox-installer tool? [03:43] :) [03:44] ive never even notic3eed kubuntu had such a tool [03:44] but the postings you gave seem rather clear.. the firefox.desktop file is in both packages.. so its conflicting [03:44] I bet if you just had the kubuntu-fireefox-installer installed the forefox icon would actually run some install script to install the real firefox [03:45] (i am guessing here) [03:47] Spaceghost: you have kubuntu- firefox-installer as 12.04 which shows in synaptic package manager ...just type "firefox" in the quick filter put a check mark in the box right click on it and install it [03:47] Morph4me: but I am in 12.10 now. [03:47] i know [03:47] install synaptic [03:48] do it that way when all else fails [03:48] I am installing it. [03:48] hey guys, this would be my first time in these irc rooms, just installed 12.10 today, entering the world of self education [03:48] Hi, === samuel_ is now known as samuel [03:49] Dr_Anon, greetings [03:50] appreciate it, was a little nervous about the attitude and community towards newcomers haha [03:51] Can some one help me with a problem I have . I have a lenovo thinkpad and Im trying to mount it to connect to it to install ubuntu [03:51] Dr_Anon, we only tar and feather rude newcomers ... :) [03:51] welcome, Dr_Anon [03:51] Morph4me: the same error through synaptic [03:51] ouchie [03:51] wolverine45, details. lenovo usually installs ubuntu without problem [03:52] The same error through KDE installer of Firefox as well: [03:52] Yep, it has a form of linux on it . But its not Ubuntu. The problem is that Im trying to set it up for fresh in stall from my laptop and the usb now are 3.0 [03:52] "/var/cache/apt/archives/firefox_20.0+build1-0ubuntu0.12.10.3_amd64.deb Error: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop', which is also in package kubuntu-firefox-installer 12.04ubuntu1" [03:52] Anyone here have a lot of experience with fglrx drivers? [03:52] anyways, having a little bit of trouble, i installed and booted from a usb (using a acer aspire one netbook btw), and it started up fine and works fine but on startup the install screen still comes up and when i restart ive been losing all my apps and everything, so i figured it didnt install on the computer and maybe i was running live, but i tried to install and it says my computer already has xp and 12.10 [03:53] Dr_Anon, losing your apps? as in they're gone? or just not displayed? [03:54] haha, well im far from rude, very friendly and eager to learn [03:54] hrm [03:54] i downloaded the ubuntu iso and burned it.. the laptop doesnt want to see it as bootable ? or something it keeps going to previous linux install [03:54] well when i restart they are nowhere to be found, for example i installed the psensor app and its gone, as well as my user profile info, username etc [03:55] debian* install [03:55] Dr_Anon: are you sure you are booting into your installed ubuntu and not still using the live version on usb stick? [03:55] Dr_Anon, post a screenshot [03:55] should i erase all that off before install?

[03:55] Spaceghost :/usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop makes no sense [03:55] bassgeisha, no need to erase. just format the partition [03:56] you mean Firefox Web Browser ? [03:56] Morph4me: where I put that? [03:56] .desktop [03:57] how would i go about booting with the installed ubuntu and not the usb? i know when i orginally installed and started up i moved the usb stick up in the boot order [03:57] Dr_Anon, hit the boot loader. remove the usb and priortize the HD [03:57] Spaceghost: both those packages are installing the same file. and thus conflict. remove the kubuntu-firefox-installer package [03:57] format it when it boots from the cd? [03:58] im pretty sure it freezes up or maybe even cut off when i pulled the usb earlier. [03:58] Dr_Anon: If you went through the install procedure. Just remove the usb stick and down prio it in bios if needed. It should boot fine from ur harddrive [03:58] from an install default is /usr/share/applications/Firefox Web Browser ...why change or should i say rename it ? [03:58] bassgeisha, correct. just make sure you format only the partition you want to install ubuntu to ... important if you are dual booting [03:58] so take out the usb whenever i cut the computer off? [03:58] nothing else on here afaik [03:58] clean slate [03:58] Dr_Anon, you need not remove the usb if the bios is set to ignore it [03:58] bassgeisha, then format and install away! [03:59] so i can choose in bios to ignore the usb and boot hd? [03:59] dr_willis: can you say me how to do that? [03:59] and it will boot ubuntu over windows? [03:59] Spaceghost: apt-get remove packagename same as you do any other package [04:00] Dr_Anon, when you reboot, after power-on, self test, you hit the F12 key (on my Dell anyway. maybe different for you). that brings up the bios. Go to boot, reorder things as you need. then save and reboot [04:00] Dr_Anon, boot over windows ? ummm, means what? and you did NOT use the windows installer (wubi), did you? [04:00] is there a way for me to backup the apps and user info i have now before rebooting so that ill have it after? [04:01] no i dual booted though [04:01] Dr_Anon, easiest way is to set a dedicated /home partition [04:01] and boot over windows as in higher priority [04:01] thats what i did on my dell laptop last year but this time im on a netbook and it kind of threw me off [04:02] Dr_Anon, good enough. === dominic_ is now known as mdih [04:03] how exactly do i set up a /home partition for it and move it there? [04:04] i think that may help because earlier i had an issue with a no more disk space error message and had 100% usage after an hour of tinkering [04:04] Dr_Anon, helps to do spring cleaning ... run sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get clean to clear out your cache [04:05] ya think that was a problem even though i had literally JUST installed 12.10 within an our prior? [04:05] hour* [04:06] i appreciate your help btw man i hate to be asking so many questions at onve [04:06] Dr_Anon, here is a wiki on separating home, might be easier to just reinstall since this one is a fresh install though. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving [04:06] dr_willis: it worked, thanks a lot mate. [04:06] Dr_Anon, ah. no. that issue builds up over time. cause: downloaded packages get saved but NOT deleted by default [04:06] !cookie|wilee-nilee, [04:06] wilee-nilee,: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie! [04:06] Thanks to you too cfhowlett. [04:06] Spaceghost, what was the final fix? [04:07] reading the error message and removeing the package it was complaining about... ;) [04:07] does creating a new user essentially reset Unity to all defaults for them? or are there user-independant settings to reset as well? [04:07] dr_willis, nice catch, doc! [04:08] blob4000, new user gets defaults all the way [04:08] blob4000: a new user running unity the first time.. gets the defaults [04:08] dr_willis and cfhowlett thanks! [04:08] do u think ill be okay to just boot from the hard drive? i did the dual boot but it says xp AND ubuntu 12.10 is on this computer [04:08] if an existing user deletes all their unity setting files... they would get defaults [04:08] \once unity runs [04:08] great to hear :P [04:08] Dr_Anon, that's what a dual boot is. fire it up ... [04:09] when did ubuntu start requiring a longer password? [04:09] haha appreciate it man. im just over analyzing i swear im not ignorant. thanks again though, ill come give credit if it works! [04:09] cfhowlett: remove the package of Kubuntu's installer of firefox. [04:09] Spaceghost, simple indeed. [04:14] Yes. [04:25] Hello fellas. How long is it for ubuntu raring release ? [04:25] I am thinking of buying a laptop. It would be UEFI enabled and having pre installed windows 8. I have plans to dual boot ubuntu with windows 8 but i heard something like UEFI locks up boot sector and no other OS can be installed with it. What would you think should i go for it? [04:25] wwwdotcom: its not uefi that does that.. its the 'secure boot' feature i belive. [04:26] i see [04:26] and that i belive cen be disavled on many laptops [04:27] !uefi|wwwdotcom, [04:27] wwwdotcom,: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [04:28] Gosh. Thank you. Good to know. It's possible. [04:30] last time i got a new laptop (non uefi) i just got a spare hd to put into it ;) i had linux on just that Hd. and kep the windows hd safe so i could put it back in , when i sold/gave away the laptop [04:31] of course the last laptop i had... i discovered had 2 hd slots... so i had a hd for each os... gotta love that [04:32] My laptop has two hdd slots but only 1 connector , madness. [04:32] weird.. wonder if thers some sata spliter for it. [04:33] I've taken it apart for cleaning and didn't see any sata ports, silly HP. [04:34] a secret compartment to hold your.. err.. usb flash drives? ;) [04:35] hello, can someone tell me why 32bit ubuntu10.04 uses 64 bit system calls like bind?? [04:36] Yes , usb flash drives haha.

Is this command ok, sudo badblocks /dev/sda7 ? [04:37] wwwdotcom: i belive badblocks just reads/tests then prints out a list... [04:37] chekc its man page [04:38] right [04:38] dr_willis: I ran testdisk, but i am still unable to copy that file [04:38] i did strace on ubuntu 10.04 32bit system but it gave me system calls like bind which are for 64 bit, can someone tell me why it is so??? [04:38] uname -a gives i686 system [04:39] wwwdotcom: i dont know the core problem.. but you may want to check into the fsarchicver program if you are trying to rescue a system [04:40] No. System is running just fine. Only problem is that the file that i have downloaded may be saved on location where there are just one or two bad sectors. [04:41] For this reason i am not able to copy that file. [04:41] that file may vbe totally currupted anyway [04:41] hi [04:41] fsarchiver might be able to recovery it. might be total;y unrecoverable [04:41] hi guys... i'm wondering if want to create a new user who logs in with public/private keys, do i still need to set a password when i create the user or can i skip that entirely for security?

[05:36] not unity thats for sure [05:36] Ben64, I already have. But i am stuck at just this file. Once it is copied, i will thrash it way. [05:37] dr_willis: ok [05:37] i saw the ability to use scrollwheel on the launcher icons to switch windows... i liked the look of that... i always missed scrollwheel on the desktop pager ( i use that all the time in classic gnome) - it would be nice if the unity switcher icon did that [05:37] unity has a great many new tweaks/polished features in 13.04 [05:37] i like unity overall because of globalmenu [05:38] i hate the classic windows style menu more than any minor irritation unity might have :) [05:39] hi everyone [05:39] my usb pen drive is not detected [05:39] it shows up in lsusb and fdisk [05:40] but i can't even format it using gparted or disk utility [05:40] Hello! Why the new release 13.04 has not arrived, even it's 25th? [05:40] not even gparted? jeez [05:40] Chatman: its not the 25th everywhere [05:40] Chatman: it will be out when its out.. [05:41] oh :P [05:41] how sad... [05:41] installgentoo: yes it detects the drive but it cannot format it succesfully [05:41] I don't think i'll be able to sleep tonight too excited [05:41] this same question will get asked very 10 min...... [05:41] ripthejacker: try using dd to zero the drive. then repartition it [05:41] :D so better make a post on the internet about it [05:41] dr_willis: zero the drive? [05:42] dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/THEUSBTHING [05:42] then repartition it/ [05:42] if dd cant zero it out.. then the usb is most likely bad [05:42] oh ok i'll try [05:43] dr_willis: so do I specify /dev/sdb or /dev/sdb1 ? [05:43] hmmm... this kinda sucks because it's already morning here in finland... [05:43] ripthejacker: the Drive would be 'sdb' a partion on the drive would be sdb1 [05:43] Chatman: you can download the beta... its not going to be much different === jagger|away is now known as jagger [05:44] installgentoo, #ubuntu-release-party [05:44] Ben64: well, yes, but I want to get straight to the real thing ;) [05:45] I'll thing about it [05:45] think* [05:45] danx [05:45] how can i change my default program for urls? [05:46] in konsole === jagger is now known as jagger|away [05:46] sorry i dont know :| [05:46] just making sure, 13.04 is shipping tomorrow? [05:47] back to gnome-terminal :) [05:47] hi, how do I ubuntu? [05:47] dr_willis: how long should it take to dd to zero , it's been 5 mins and it's not returning [05:47] So... I'm not sure what I did, but I've been using Gnome Classic for awhile. I switch to Unity and my screen is blank except for the wallpaper. No panels anywhere. Right now I'm in Unity 2D and that's working fine. [05:48] ripthejacker: depends on the size of the usb [05:49] Birdo: maybe "restoring" your unity perfil? [05:49] jabagawee: "It's not 25th everywhere" was the answer I got :D [05:49] lol [05:49] every time someone asks... it gets delayed another 15 min... [05:50] heh, cute [05:50] kqwarkq: is it unity --reset ? [05:50] I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 on my laptop and I'm getting no sound. I had working sound two days ago and the only thing I've installed lately in java and updates. How do I figure out what is wrong? [05:50] Just get used to it as long it's not possible to load the history of this chat :P [05:50] like that [05:50] !log [05:50] Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ . LoCo channels are now logged there too. [05:50] unity personalizations [05:51] oh! it's possible :D [05:51] omg this is logged i must exist [05:51] *whoops* [05:51] :D [05:51] !log [05:51] Official channel logs can be found at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ . LoCo channels are now logged there too. [05:52] !attack [05:52] Hi, I'm using Ubuntu 13.03, and I'm unable to connect to my campus wifi [05:52] Birdo: means that you will del unity configs for your user profile. [05:52] 13.04* [05:52] or maybe change [05:53] with PEAP and MSCHAP [05:53] pskeshu try #ubuntu+1 [05:53] that log website is a bit complicated to me :P or I'm just simple [05:54] pskeshu: maybe the school doesn't want you on their wifi cuz you torrent too much [05:54] usher called [05:54] I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 on my laptop and I'm getting no sound. I had working sound two days ago and the only thing I've installed lately in java and updates. How do I figure out what is wrong? [05:54] kqwarkq - the same problem persists with 12.10 [05:54] Could using tweak tool and a GTK 3 theme in Unity possibly prevent Unity from loading (works in Unity 2d)? Lol.. [05:55] Ponch0 - the same problem persists with 12.10 [05:55] Or displaying, i should say* [05:55] Birdo: Yes [05:55] what's your wifi device [05:55] Birdo: unity3d uses compiz and needs proper 3d drivers... thats more likely the issue [05:56] will xubuntu and lubuntu be released at the same time? unity hates my 2005 laptop [05:56] dr_willis, kqwarkq: Makes sense. Thanks guys. [05:56] pskeshu: also check if wlan0 is on [05:56] if your drivers are installed correctly [05:56] Realtek RTL8188CE [05:56] It's on, and I can see many connections available [05:57] dr_willis: I didn't even realize it, but I'm booting Ubuntu 12.04 from an external hard drive. And I'm not a different computer. The 3d drivers is probably the issue. [05:57] when I connect it tries connecting and gets timedout [05:57] and asks for password again [05:57] what tools can I use to monitor disk/block device performance? [05:57] dr_willis: I think I'll stick with Ubuntu 2d for now while on this laptop which is temporary. Thanks. [05:58] Birdo: Check your driver [05:58] Ponch0 - refer http://paste.ubuntu.com/5600207/ [05:59] how do I check the driver? [05:59] I have no trouble connecting to my friend's wifi hotspot [05:59] Hello, I have a problem with Ubuntu 13.04 Beta, I just upgraded to see how it is. I thought it would be all right considering they're so close to releasing it. HOwever, when I log on, nothing works apart from the mouse, but then, the mouse is very choppy and laggy. Anyone know what's going on? [05:59] oh ok so the only wifi u can't connect to is your school? [05:59] It's only with my campus network that I've this problem. I googled and found that many have the same problem [06:00] Yes. But I was able to connect to it with Kali OS [06:01] Night all, thanks for the help. [06:01] ah I gotcha. [06:01] interesting because I failed out school so I haven't come up across the problem [06:02] Haha [06:02] so you have any idea what's wrong? [06:02] I don't, I've had my own share of wifi issues but that definately wasn't one of them. [06:02] dr_willis: is there any way to make the dd zero verbose. It's still going on and i'm not sure if it's frozen. [06:02] pskeshu: check what module/drivers kaliOs is using perhaps? could be some odd driver quirk [06:03] It's important I get my internet soon. I've my biochem exam soon [06:03] dr_willis: seems to have a great idea [06:03] ripthejacker: how big is the usb flash? you coul djust ctrl-c it and then try to partion the flash now.. it may not need to finish [06:03] I removed kaliOS to install Ubuntu [06:03] dr_willis: 32GB [06:03] Anyone? [06:04] "Hello, I have a problem with Ubuntu 13.04 Beta, I just upgraded to see how it is. I thought it would be all right considering they're so close to releasing it. HOwever, when I log on, nothing works apart from the mouse, but then, the mouse is very choppy and laggy. Anyone know what's going on?" [06:04] pskeshu: he's saying to use whatever drivers theyre using for your computer. [06:05] so continue using ubuntu just use the same drivers for your wifi as kali [06:05] thePHPdev: check your video drivers would be a start. Unity/compiz can be picky about them [06:05] OK, How would I do that? [06:06] Ponch0 How do I do that? I'm new to linux [06:06] what version of kaliOS did you use? [06:07] Ponch0: Kali 1.0 [06:07] the latest one [06:07] !pwn === incognito is now known as Guest85629 [06:08] dr_willis: How would I do that? [06:08] thePHPdev: i dont know what video drivers/chipset you got.. whaever ones your chipset uses.. check they are installed, and are working [06:09] Hey dr_willis, i tried ddrescue utility and it worked perfectly fine!! [06:09] what is the easy way to switch between file manager windows in unity. if you use the launcher you have to click twice. Is there a keyboar shortcut to switch file manager windows if you have two opened? [06:09] rescued: 682902 kB, errsize: 4096 B, current rate: 0 B/s === Odysimus is now known as Odysimus_away [06:09] Ony 2KB was corrupted imo [06:09] Hello is there a place where I can hire for a specific build [06:09] Guest85629: in the next release theres a quicklist on the panel icons. ;) [06:10] http://www.realtek.com/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=2&PNid=21&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&ProdID=272&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true [06:11] dr_willis I don't think my box can handle the next release. Judging by your answer, there is no keyboard shortcut. Do you think I could make a keyboard shortcut? [06:11] fine the 88CE driver under linux, look for some instructions and have fun [06:12] So, I just have to download it and install it? [06:12] nah, that stuff is a pain, google some detailed instructions [06:12] ./configure [06:12] make [06:12] make install all that good stuff [06:12] Guest85629: never really noticed. i just alt-tab till i get the window i want [06:12] okay. Thank you so much for your help :) [06:12] dr_willis: check pm!: ) [06:13] hey np, pskeshu ull figure it out ur a smart(guy) biochem last I checked is some tough stuff [06:13] dr_willis ... that sounds like a good solution to me... Thanks [06:14] hehe. Biochem is a little tough, but it's very interesting. [06:14] as long as you find it interesting and enjoy it :) [06:14] when i was using windows xp there was a site to download more RAM, is it possible to download more RAM on linux? [06:15] thanks man :) I'll go try fix my wifi. Bye [06:15] installgentoo: go back to /g/ [06:15] good luck [06:18] I'm running Lubuntu 12.04 on my laptop and I'm getting no sound. I had working sound two days ago and the only thing I've installed lately is java and updates. How do I figure out what is wrong? [06:20] Thank you all and have a nice day. [06:21] @Korbit try opening terminal and putting in alsamixer and see if anything is muted === Guest42372 is now known as dev1 [06:22] bryan_: The only thing that shows up is PCM and it isn't muted. [06:23] is there any other devices to choose there. Press f6 [06:23] dr_willis: after formatting it shows filesystem unknow [06:24] Korbit: did you try to unmute your sound>? [06:24] bryan_: The only things that show up there are "- Default" and "0 HDA Intel". [06:24] ripthejacker: you partion, then format.. gparted should let you do this [06:25] Korbit: have you checked sound under your system settings yet [06:26] I had the same problem on lubuntu 12.04 forgot how i fixed it had to dl alsa mixer or something [06:26] bryan_: Nothing for sound shows up under either the System Tools or Preferences menus. [06:28] here is a page that might help, idk that much about troubleshooting audio cards but take a look here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto [06:28] yo yo [06:28] im back [06:29] installgentoo: sam ehre, bec. alsamixer lets you CHOOSE the right audio card before proceeding [06:29] with sound [06:30] anyone know what time 13.04 is coming out? it's already the 25th in some parts of the world :) [06:30] pittmanism: its been delayed for 3 years... [06:30] ;P [06:31] i installed the most recent beta and it broke my display, lol [06:31] i hope the three new unity effects are worth it >:| [06:31] I couldnt even install the final beta because the installer broke [06:31] how much time is left ? [06:31] i guess i should more blame amd than ubuntu [06:32] i have to drop to recovery mode and reinstall the fglrx drivers every time x is touched [06:32] xord* [06:32] org [06:32] that is to be expected [06:33] AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Now my MHL adapter on my cell phone isn't working! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRON WITH LINUX THIS WEEK?!? MY DESKTOP WON'T LET ME LOG IN, MY LAPTOP HAS NO SOUND, MY RASPBERRY PI WON'T MOUNT ANY USB DRIVES, AND MY PHONE WON'T OUTPUT TO MY MONITOR ANYMORE. FUCK THIS SHIT.

[06:34] ahaha [06:35] yeah, if everything around you is failing... maybe it's you [06:36] dr_willis: if I'm connecting a linux laptop to a tv and the display is too small, do I need to play with the dpi? [06:37] connecting how? hdmi? dvi? [06:37] vga [06:37] 13.04 is still not out [06:38] ???? [06:38] 13.04 is still not out??????????????

[06:39] but there must be a UTC time at which is set for the release ? [06:39] :В [06:39] :D [06:39] apm1: not really. it depends on when they get all the servers synced and ready [06:39] dr_willis, oh [06:40] i see this every 6 mo.. people asking is it out.. every 5 min.. then someone claims its out.... and its not on all the servers.. and so on.. then someone posts a torrent that dosent work... [06:40] dr_willis: vga [06:41] Kartagis: its possible the monitor has a scaleing mode/setting that might fill up the whole screen.. ive not used vga in years with a tv [06:41] dr_willis: yes i created a partition ext2 but it's not showing up. [06:42] dr_willis: shall i post lsusb or dmesg or fdisk? [06:42] ripthejacker: check with 'sudo blkid' and 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/thedevicename' [06:42] ripthejacker: or just try to mount it by hand. ;) [06:42] dr_willis: it's shown in fdisk but not in blkid [06:43] unplug/plug it back in perhaps.. or just try to mount it by hand [06:43] how can i improve temp on my laptop [06:44] can i turn stuff down some how?

[07:49] #ubuntu-release [07:49] Question: Is Ubuntu 13.04 going to use systemd? [07:50] !systemd [07:50] wat. [07:50] I'm asking because I noticed on DistroWatch systemd was listed as a package for 13.04 [07:51] hey guys , i am running on 10.04 lte version , last night i hit a problem with the display was gone, from starting to end. i am right now in the box, connecting the monitor with an external monitor device. how to get back the display in my laptop which includes the hp dv2000 series laptop [07:51] !upstart [07:51] Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.

O.o [07:54] can someone help me get past that problem with the display ?? i am really worried..

[08:27] yeah i used to use it a long long long time ago in slackware, but i think im just gonna ssh filetransfers [08:28] smoke_:no need to setup smb if transfer is from Ubuntu --->>> Windows [08:29] ANub: how is it so?

[08:41] greyed [08:42] nikolam: I hve not chkd that feature ( :) ).......so cant comment [08:42] seems like teamviewer bug but need to recheck it [08:43] ANub, you copy something on linux machine (clipboard), start teamviewer, connect to windows machine and check it copy/paste works for you in windows explorer [08:43] Try looking in "Extras > Options > Advanced" and make sure that Sync Clipboard is ticked. [08:43] friends, is there any dedicated channel for ubuntu phones? [08:43] !phone [08:43] Information about the Ubuntu Touch platform for Phone and Tablet is available here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch support and discussion in #ubuntu-touch [08:43] nikolam: yeah....... I think it wont.........because controls are transferred......Does it work in Windows..? [08:44] nikolam: Try looking in "Extras > Options > Advanced" and make sure that Sync Clipboard is ticked. [08:44] hydrox24: mine is already checked [08:45] it is, sync clipboards is checked, hydrox24 [08:46] nikolam: Does it work in Windows..? [08:46] it works if i DON't copy something to local clipboard, before starting teamviewer on linux [08:46] ANub, yes, it works locally. [08:46] nikolam: hmmmm..........wait lemme chk [08:46] so it is confirmed, it is teamviewer bug on linux when connecting to windows [08:47] ANub, it works when TV is disconnected.. when connected with clipboard, it also does not work. [08:47] There's a good workaround (though when I say good, it sucks). Just paste the text into a text file, upload the file to the client and copy it out of the text file in teamviewer on the client. [08:48] is there a yum package for litecoin? [08:48] *aptitude [08:48] hydrox24, I close and restart TV session with no copied text and get it working untill next time i need to paste something from linux machine [08:49] Neozonz|Disc, see packages.ubuntu.com, seraching ppa.ubuntu.com and see for project site of the app for packages/instructions. [08:49] nikolam: Ive chked it ........you can copy paste from remote to remote [08:49] I have Ubuntu 10.04 and since the last update I can't access my gnome desktop. A login window appears to me but the only way to access the gnome deskop is to launch a "gnome emergency desktop". Is there a problem with the last update? (I also had auto-login at startup!) [08:49] nikolam: but from remote to local ....use file transfer function.........because controls are changed [08:49] ANub, yes, you can but it turns off local copy-paste on target windows machine , during the session [08:50] ppa.ubuntu.com cannot be found [08:50] Neozonz|Disc, ppa ubuntu? ppa is for 3rd party repositories, not official ubuntu repos ... [08:50] Neozonz|Disc, I was thinking, you go to launchpad.net and search name of the program, to see if PPA is available [08:51] nikolam: you mean ubuntu..? [08:51] Neozonz|Disc: it doesnt work that way you want. [08:51] Neozonz|Disc, if you see what app developers say, maybe you could package it yourself and put into PPA to use for yourself and others [08:51] https://launchpad.net/~litecoinppa/+archive/ppa < but this ppa doesn't contain any packages yet? [08:51] Neozonz|Disc: neither yum, nor will the ppa.ubuntu.com url working [08:52] Neozonz|Disc, PPA is different and unrelated to Ubuntu itself. [08:52] !yum [08:52] Uh, don't you mean !apt ? [08:52] Neozonz|Disc, learn how to build packages and put them into PPA [08:52] Neozonz|Disc: then ask the maintianer of that PPA. ubuntu doesnt support that program [08:52] http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16210402/ubuntu-10-04-brightness-stuck-at-0-on-my-hp-laptop-how-to-change [08:52] ok thanks [08:53] have Ubuntu 10.04 and since the last update I can't access my gnome desktop.

[10:32] belgianguy: No, not particularly old. It is a server machine, a HP xw9300 Workstation. [10:32] DrGrov: does it beep or flash a led in certain sequence? [10:32] cfhowlett, I do not understand what is meant by 'persistent file storage' [10:33] BlackDalek, you wanted storage of files on your usb, i.e. persistent storage [10:33] belgianguy: Yes, it flashes a led in red color upon startup in a sequence it seems. It flashes it like something is stuck. A few seconds and stops and starts again. [10:33] DrGrov: try looking online for what that sequence means [10:34] belgianguy: Okay, I will look. Thanks.

Ok, then I gotta figure that one out. [10:36] cfhowlett, ok.. but I don't have a linux USB live CD.. it's a FreeDOS USB - so is that page even relevant? [10:36] belgianguy: It was going really warm last night, had it running for a long time. [10:37] cfhowlett: ;) [10:37] cfhowlett: I believe -l takes an additional argument/parameter to function [10:37] ejv: Both the command lists all packages, i just want to view the additional packages which is installed after the default installation..

I recently got a USB recovery usb from HP, and after I'm done using it I want to see if it can be formated and used as a usb pen. Problem is that the usb pen is recognized as a CDrom drive in both windows and Linux... Do youk now any way to format it? I've tried fdisk and dd, both saying that it is read only :( [10:40] izx: sry *installed* [10:40] not install [10:41] izx: cat /var/log/dpkg.log | grep "\ installed \" [10:41] belgianguy: Is there anything I can do for that issue? If it is then the power supply having a power failure... Can that somehow be fixed just by waiting and letting it cool down? [10:44] DrGrov: I'd replace it if I were you, or was this machine opened recently? [10:44] if not opened recently, I'd say replace the PSU [10:45] belgianguy: How you mean opened recently? [10:45] belgianguy: I cleaned it a few weeks ago, removing most of the dust inside. [10:46] DrGrov: do you have another workstation like that? [10:47] belgianguy: No, just that one. [10:48] DrGrov: have you added any new hardware recently? if so, the power supply could be to weak [10:49] *too [10:49] Hi all. why my ubuntu 12.10 update-manager isn't proposing me the update to 13.04 yet ?

[10:50] Just in case anyone was looking for 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) http://releases.ubuntu.com/raring/ [10:50] DrGrov: most likely something physically broke in the PSU, and it can only fixed by replacing it AFAIK [10:50] unless it has a fuse of some sort [10:50] but I doubt it [10:50] Leighton: dont post urls untill the official release [10:51] k1l_: oh, sorry [10:51] belgianguy: But how would something break and just worked perfectly well 6 hours ago?

[11:41] Raha, yes to both [11:41] Hiyas all [11:41] hangman5950: no, what client application on the windows side> [11:42] !away > derWachert [11:42] derWachert, please see my private message [11:42] idk man I just open my computer click network and their it is in windows but not in network it will let me see the network but let me onto the server [11:42] hangman5950: you need a user to login (or setup anonymous access) [11:43] at last i will learn both but know for the firt which one [11:43] hangman5950: try filezilla under Windows [11:43] hangman5950: or even Firefox, handles it well [11:43] Raha, if you have totally zero programing experience.. start with python [11:43] DR_willis i found that its #kali [11:44] when you set a crontab, is it set from the moment you make it? like if i set it every 12 hours, is it every 12 hours from the moment i save or is it set to some internal clock [11:44] but how? I am new to ubuntu I didnt connect to a network last time i had this installed on my laptop [11:45] i didnt really programming pro, but k know all concepts [11:45] anew: internal clock [11:45] hangman5950: install filezila and connect to the IP you have on the virtual system [11:46] jrib so when i set it for every 6 hours, it's every 6 hours sstarting from what time ? [11:46] anew: no. [11:46] hangman5950: if you set the network as bridged rather than NAT, it will take an IP from your router and seem like another PC attached to your LAN [11:46] when I install on VM shoul i use Virtual disc image, virtual machine disk, or virtual hard disk [11:46] i think it's better to learn python first, but there is a lot of scrips in liux by perl so i am confuse to choose [11:46] no ? [11:47] anew: I'm not sure what you want me to say. [11:47] hangman5950: surely this si already done [11:47] hangman5950: if you are unsure, the defaults are fine [11:47] yeah but I want to make sure I chose corectly [11:47] jrib no what ... if i set it for every 6 hours, it's every 6 hours starting from what time [11:47] well whats the differnece in them [11:48] anew: you gave two alternatives. 1) it's from the moment you set it or 2) it's internal time (which is ambiguous but presumably, is not the same as 1. I said it was (2) and you asked me if it was (1). Here, maybe the man page clears it up for you: Commands are executed by cron(8) when the minute, hour, and month of year fields match the current time, and when at least one of the two day fields (day of [11:48] month, or day of week) match the current time === iorweth_ is now known as iorweth [11:48] Raha, flip a coin.

[11:50] anew: when you say something like every two hours (*/2), that just gets translated to 0,2,4,6,...,22 [11:50] Any ideas? [11:50] yes but my second question is not yes or no. if i set it for every x hours or every 30 minutes... .it's every 30 minutes starting frmo what time [11:50] cristian_c, check out airdroid and you will never want to mess with bluetooth [11:50] right now it's 1400, if i set a crontab for every 2 hours, when will it run [11:50] is there a channel for mirror operators? [11:50] anew: see my last reply [11:51] Dr_willis, but I have not to connect through internet [11:51] no i mean .... i must be asking this weird [11:51] Dr_willis, but locally [11:51] cristian_c, no local router for both to connect to? shame. [11:51] jrib if i set it for every 12 hours, when will the first crontab run. 12 hours from the exact moment i hit save or 12 hours from .... (fill in the blank if you know) [11:51] anew, it dosent care when you 'save' [11:51] anew: do you understand when it would run if you set the hour field to "0,2,4,6,...,22" (with the ... appropriately filled in)? [11:52] yes but what determines what is an hour ! [11:52] the system clock [11:52] anew: can you answer my last question? I'm not sure where you are confused [11:52] hey, anybody having trouble seeing the facebook contacts in pidgin? [11:53] it's not every 12 hours. It's at 12 o,clock [11:53] anyone use NOD32? [11:53] starbuck33: have you tried renaming the pidgin profile folder after closing the app completely and setting up a new profile (just to test) [11:53] torch1 so if i set it for every 3 hours, it's not every 3 hours... it's at 12,3, 6 etc [11:54] with those numbers being the time on the server [11:54] 24 hrs /3 => ever X oclock [11:54] every X Oclock [11:54] so if i save the crontab at 11:59 and make it for every hour, the crontab will run in one minute ? [11:54] ZOMG: http://releases.ubuntu.com/raring/ [11:54] anew: yes (for the third time) [11:54] anew, possibily [11:54] possibly or yes ....

There is a difference [11:57] ok, i try that [11:57] starbuck33: close pidgin and run: mv ~/.purple ~/.purple_old [11:57] <__mike> hi guys [11:57] starbuck33: then launch pidgin [11:58] Who pinged me [11:58] ActionParsnip: ok, i'm onto it [11:58] Because I'm gonna hunt you down [11:58] oh. netsplit. makes sense.

[12:45] hackeron_: yes logs of the upgrade are kept in /var/log/dist-upgrade/ . I'm still not sure what exactly you did. I don't even see what you pasted originally in your last paste. In any case, if you got this from a fresh 12.10 cd, I would strongly urge you to start over, carefully documenting your steps (install 12.10, run do-release-upgrade) as it's quite bad if it fails. If it does fail again, try making [12:45] sure you are up to date (run normal upgrades) before doing the do-release-upgrade and see if you still have an issue. If you do (either way) have the issue repeat itself, please file a bug report.

You don't lose anything with a reinstall and it's fairly bad that an upgrade would fail on a fresh install. In any case, if you want to ignore my advice, you can try to run a regular "apt-get dist-upgrade" first and pastebin output [12:50] jrib: I do not have physical access to the box and it has no optical drive anymore - it would involve gaining access to the box and taking the box appart.

But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [12:56] Hi all. I just updated from 12.04 to 12.10. It asked me to replace the apache2.conf file, I said no since I customized it and had no backup. Now the old config file isn't recognized by apache2 anymore. How to let apt do the job again and replace the apache2 config file with a good one ? [12:58] ggherdov: it shouldn't be the case that your files is no longer recognized [12:59] jrib: I did a few dpkg -i /path-to-new-pkg.deb and now apt-get dist-upgrade is moving along :D [12:59] hackeron_: ok [13:00] jrib: only thing that was broken is python and perl, rest seems ok [13:00] jrib: it goes like this: the old config (apache2.conf) loaded another config (httpd.conf). no httpd.conf disappeared, and apache2.conf gives then an error. I'd like apt to fix this mess. is it possble? [13:00] now* [13:00] ggherdov: well don't you care about your configuration? You'll just be left with a default configuration [13:01] jrib: I do. I took now a backup, and will try to restore it once , at least, " service apache2 start " executes fine. Now I am not even there. [13:02] ggherdov: you can 1) find the package that gives apache2.conf (dpkg -S /etc/apache/apache2.conf), then 2) rename apache2.conf, then 3) reinstall the package in (1) but pass --force-confmiss [13:02] to dpkg [13:03] jrib: ok trying that. [13:04] I can no longer become root or use sudo. I messed something up by adding myself to the audio group. what should I do? [13:05] lewis1711: what exactly did you do that messed something up? [13:05] jrib: probably this " sudo usermod -G audio lewis" or this " sudo adduser lewis audio" [13:05] that's all i can think of [13:06] Is the server at http://ubuntu.virginmedia.com/releases//raring/ down? [13:06] lewis1711: yes, the first one changes your group list (i.e. ALL groups you belong to) to just the audio group.

[13:15] ggherdov: when you choose to keep the old configuration, dpkg saves the new one for you in that file.

Krusader) to maintain it's settings to use it in a fresh install of Ubuntu? [14:00] currently i am re/downloading the iso since i really cannot come up with anything else. [14:01] well [14:01] jony: well I have done this type of stuff so taht I have setup /home to be on separate partition, and use it as /home with new isntall also... tough yet another thing how to make it so on system that is not already [14:01] busybox shell any one ? [14:01] np [14:01] i saw a post today that amd catalyst 13.4 was released. When I checked mine, it was 12.9 - I am using the latest amd driver from the repositories. Why are the repositories so outdated? Should I install the 13.4 one? [14:01] this did the trick :) < ls /sys/devices/system/cpu/ | grep cpu[0-9] | while read line; do echo $(cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq) > /sys/devices/system/cpu/$line/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq; done [14:01] betrayd: I've also tried doing this with ip addr add instead of creating an alias in /etc/network/interfaces, with the same result [14:02] olmari, I have too the second partition in /home [14:02] shagoyjo: tried pinging their hostnames, who's directing traffic there [14:02] hey, can I sync folders from my win8 and ubuntu machine on Ubuntu One? [14:02] me [14:02] i've just installed 13.04. What is better with amd graphics? free or private drivers? I have an AMD-350 and get errors starting ubuntu with both. Also suspending doesn't work with eeepcs? [14:02] hi jony___ [14:02] hi jonas___* [14:02] olmari, if I keep /home, won't be conflicts? [14:02] hey [14:02] does anyone know why my monitor won't work via HDMI after upgrading to 13.04? [14:02] betrayd: I'm pinging them direct by IP, as I said earlier, no hostnames. I don't want to tinker with that layer yet. [14:03] Okay, Raring has been released. The support has been cut down to just 9 months. Has a rolling-release branch been implemented? Or will the updates work just like before? [14:03] jony: well it depends.. can but usually those are mild or nonexistant [14:03] olha outro [14:03] betrayd, my F8 key has crt/lcd on it so I press Fn + F8 at boot time? [14:03] jony: as generally software settings are in ~/.software [14:03] i have a small penis [14:03] LOOOOOOOOOOOL [14:03] lollol [14:03] !ot [14:03] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [14:03] jony: you could wanna delete something that you definately know you don't want to save [14:04] olmari, ty [14:04] theadmin [14:04] i cant boot liveusb [14:04] says busybox [14:04] so if i was using the raring beta, is there anything I need to do with the release? [14:04] drehdz: Nah, just upgrade all the packages and you'll be on the "released" version [14:05] thank you theadmin, thats what i thought [14:05] a question! CAn I install 13.04 using Wubi, on Windows 7. [14:05] betrayd, that sort of worked! but now the LCD says "Unsupported video format" and I just have the laptop screen [14:05] tr57 if its the only one, there are 3 settings, LCD only, LCD+VGA, VGA only so try it (press twice?) so you can see boot messages on both. [14:06] betrayd, right thanks will try again [14:06] tr57 the BIOS may have diagnostics to show/go thru all resolutions [14:07] pick one that the TV can do as well tr57 [14:07] Grape_hunter: Sure [14:07] tr57 then when you get both arandr can be made to work [14:07] Or... hm... [14:07] i read that wubi support was being dropped in 13.04, but does that mean i can't install it anymore.. with the bootloader screw up somehow D: [14:07] Grape_hunter: Yeah, wubi was dropped, just found out. Now that's surpising. [14:08] yes.. because of windows 8 [14:08] Oh well it's all for the better [14:08] theadmin: what makes you say that? [14:08] I hate having to partiiton the drive :< === akar1m is now known as akar1m|mint [14:08] Grape_hunter: Virtualbox (or any other kind of VM) is an option [14:08] Grape_hunter: virtualization? [14:08] naaaaa :< [14:08] Performance :D [14:08] Grape_hunter: Also, with Ubuntu partitioning is as simple as clicking "Install Ubuntu alongside Windows 7" [14:09] tr57: ctrl-alt- will cycle through available resolutions [14:09] SuperLag: Say what? [14:09] grrr [14:09] Grape_hunter: why not? what kind of hardware are you running on? Modern hardware is enough you can barely tell an OS is running in a VM if you have enough resources for it. [14:09] Wubi was convinient. [14:09] 07:08 < theadmin> Oh well it's all for the better [14:09] Can anyone help me troubleshoot my keyboard? Esc and -_ keys are not working [14:10] SuperLag: Linux on NTFS is... weird. I mean, fragmentation causes slowdowns, makes people think Ubuntu is at fault and is slow, turns them away from Ubuntu in the end [14:10] betrayd, BIOS dosent have any resolution options [14:10] theadmin: good point [14:11] my /etc/network/interfaces eth1 block has "up ip addr add 10.11.12.40/24 brd 10.11.12.255 dev eth1 label eth1:0" at the end, and when I ifup I can see it in ifconfig, but 10.11.12.40 doesn't respond to ping. Any help? [14:11] I used to date a guy named Ubuntu once. [14:11] he would "play the bongos" on my ass. [14:12] :D [14:12] Wut. [14:12] dafuq did i just read?

[14:18] hmm I tried getting the Chrome installed and it only downloads the amd compatible verion (from the chrome d/l page) / I'm using virtual box and ubuntu 13.04 - any ideas? [14:18] the Chrome browser? [14:19] ActionParsnip: That's what I'm on; but I received an error [14:19] oh, the os === jpw_ is now known as jimmypw [14:19] compdoc: yes [14:19] browser [14:20] RedObsidian, what happens when you try to install it?

[15:03] I was wondering why is Ubuntu with Unity slow, it's even slower than windows 8 [15:03] As in, keep everything [15:04] I'm using Ubuntu 13.04 with Unity and it is fast [15:04] mzaza: It's an interface that requires a 2006-era or newer computer to work smoothly, but it shouldn't be much slower than Windows 8, really. At least not for what I've experienced. [15:04] mzaza: Not regarding Unity 2D, btw === marcelo is now known as Guest69207 [15:05] In relation to my question earlier does anyone know of any issues installing Ubuntu 12.10/13.04 on machines sporting AMD A-series procs or onboard graphics (like Radeon series)? Keep dropping me into buysbox, 12.04 installs okay though. [15:05] Screedo: [15:06] ThePendulum: I never used Windows since XP, but since I got a new laptop I though why not install Windows for my family on my old laptop, which couldn't run Ubuntu 12.04 and had xUbuntu, and i installed Windows 8 it's working very smoothly. While situation used to be the opposite with previous version of Ubuntu and Windows, Ubuntu used to be lighter and smother. [15:06] oops [15:06] hi guys i have ubuntu 12.04 and want to upgrade to 13.04 [15:06] mzaza: Did you install the correct graphics drivers for Ubuntu for your laptop? This sometimes makes a significant difference. [15:06] sumit123: Same boat. [15:06] can i do it without fresh install? [15:06] sumit123 yes, I did [15:07] ThePendulum: Yes, it was build in video card "Intel". [15:07] MokeyDust. Thanks. How can you tell me [15:07] whenever I put in a dvd/cd it tried to mount it twice and says "error this device is already mounted" [15:07] MonkeyDust: No issues whatsoever? Everything transfers well? [15:07] besides that it works fine [15:07] sumit123 in the menu, it's the first option, IIRC [15:07] any reason for this? [15:07] ThePendulum no issues whatsoever [15:08] Hi please I would like to know if TLP really fix the fan bug? And how to install a tar.bz2 application please? [15:08] MonkeyDust: How did you update? [15:09] did 13.04 live cd get raid support? === mpmc_ is now known as mpmc [15:09] apt-get update apt-get upgrade [15:09] ThePendulum with live usb stick, selected the first (or second?) option : upgrade [15:10] MonkeyDust: Alright. Hopefully it's a little more stable than the betas. For some reason, it didn't feel well. [15:10] ThePendulum it was the beta [15:10] MonkeyDust: Hm. Well, I installed the betas a few days ago and I had multiple issues. [15:10] MonkeyDust: Are you running 13.04 right now? [15:10] ThePendulum yes, since about 2 weeks or so [15:11] MonkeyDust: What I really hate is that compizconfig no longer shows the "Window Rules" option, i.e. to make windows stick to your current workspace. Is it gone for you too? [15:11] I'm having a problem with a thumb drive being write protected (so I can't run an app I need to on it). It was partitioned with fdisk, one large partition, type c (W95 FAT32 (LBA)) and was formatted with mkfs.vfat -F 32 /dev/sdb1 [15:12] ThePendulum dunno, i'm not 'très' into compiz [15:12] is there some way to take away the write protection?? [15:12] ClientAlive, is it an empty drive? [15:12] soulflare3: yes [15:13] ya me too was running 13.04 since 2 weeks the only major issue I have see was the fan running to the max but I have install TLP hope it correct the bug [15:14] right fan 135000 RPM is it normal? [15:15] 135 kHz is unhearable :p [15:15] running ubuntu dual boot with windows 7, is there a way to be able to start this ubuntu installation withn a VM in windows and still keep it so I can boot to it native on the laptop as well [15:15] hello. i just upgraded from 12.10 to 13.04 with do-release-upgrade and now ubuntu doesn't start anymore [15:16] burg what happens when you try? [15:17] can anyone help me, something called confiz is taking 40-50% of my cpu [15:17] burg maybe you can spot the problem from tty1 crtl alt f1 [15:17] burg: #ubuntu+1 for Raring support [15:17] oh its out [15:17] my mistake [15:17] Does anyone know why confiz takes up so much of my cpu? I have a decent cpu [15:17] MonkeyDust: one moment, i will post a screenshot [15:17] ubuntunewb: what video chip do you use? [15:17] LVM questions. Need to grow a pv/lv on a logical partition (which is maxed out already). I first want to grow the logical partition first. The disk is a virtual and already grown. Do I not then simply delete the logical partition, then extended partition.. then recreate them both using defaults? Reboot.. and proceed to pvresize etc..And is it recommended I do this via a liveCD? [15:18] I use ati 7850 [15:18] ubuntunewb: do you have a hybrid video chip? [15:18] radeon [15:18] syntroPi: at what moment should i press ctrl+alt+f1 ? [15:18] my cpu is fx-8150 [15:19] reinstall it with a dvd the cleanest way, it happen to me lot of time when I upgrade from 9.04 to 9.10 and 11.04 to 11.10 and 12.04 to 10.10 so for the 13.04 I reinstall with the dvd and it work on the first start and restart [15:19] burg, ctrl alt f1 brings up the tty1 login prompt and gives you a terminal if that is even possible with your problem. maybe you can further investigate from there where it hangs? [15:19] I am just getting general lag when I move windows around and in my processes compiz is using up to 50% of my cpu so I imagine that is the problem. [15:20] is there a list of the kernel versions in each ubu release? [15:21] yea on the wiki [15:21] 13.04 using 3.8 familly [15:21] ubuntunewb: uhhmmmm, that doesnt sound right [15:21] 3.8.0-19-generic [15:21] ubuntunewb: compiz should work smoothly on a 2007 computer with integrated graphics [15:21] ubuntunewb: you seem to have significantly better stats than that [15:22] MonkeyDust: http://s7.postimg.org/karx7gewa/ubuntu.jpg - this is what it tells [15:22] what can I do then?

[15:32] Guest75171: you can't set this up after the fact, but there are a few ways, like the command screen [15:33] minas, well that depends: i think its because of the gnome3 politics with which i dont agree in some points: so its a "bug" and a "feature" but i guess its intended from them [15:33] so I cannot see the output? [15:33] is there anyway I can tell the compile has completed? [15:33] Guest75171: is your first ssh connection still active?

[15:36] is there any other way to check if the compiler completed other then checking top? [15:36] Guest75171, list processes, grep it for gcc? [15:37] <_0xDE1337> Guest75171, Attempt to run what you were compiling? [15:37] it doesn't seem to be in top/or in the processes [15:37] is there a log the compiler creates on error?

[16:28] DJRWolf, if you want current ubuntu on your system, System76 is pretty much the only way to go, other places do ship computers with Ubuntu, but it tends to be older out of date releases, I'm surprised though, that Dell doesn't use 12.04 [16:28] @all: hi here... does any one know if the disk encryption on 13.04 is bugged? [16:28] ventura: You can check !launchpad for any bug reports. Are you experiencing issues?

[16:31] I have a lenovo L-512 and want to put ubunto or mint on it. Which is better? what are the differences? [16:31] oh w/e, I just symlinked ambiance's gtkrc directly. not sure why lxappearance was fucking up [16:31] alecb: please mind the language [16:31] how do I set my interface to p2p [16:31] Sorry UserError1 I don't know then.

Which is better? what are the differences? [16:35] OMG saucy repo is up [16:35] LorenzoMoney, Ubuntu, mint is not supported here. [16:35] Where do I find when a release is going to be pushed?

[16:58] wdonkey you just run the installer [16:58] shank, because ubuntu is designed to create bloat [16:59] ? [16:59] psst [16:59] say my name really slowly while pretending you're German [16:59] UserError1 like what [16:59] people do fresh installs because they are rich enough to buy new computers [16:59] w00t [16:59] even the way packages are installed by the three main methods, the appstore, synaptic, and terminal [16:59] have three different presets in ubuntu [17:00] for recommends and suggests [17:00] UserError1 whats is "recommends and suggests" [17:00] UserError1: No they don't. [17:00] oh really [17:00] check this Pici [17:00] i literally just did this [17:00] shankstaBytes: i know how to install it, i just want to get the most out of it; should i have my /home on a different partition than my /system ?? [17:00] UserError1: Reccomends and Suggests are both stored in the package information itself, which is shared across any tool that uses apt. [17:00] install bleachbit in each [17:01] i never said it wasn't [17:01] what if i have limited space on a SSD and want to creat a swap partition for using files with windows as well ? [17:01] wdonkey it really depends what you want to do with /home i would say no it really makes no difference [17:01] okay, I'm unable to install firefox [17:01] sudo apt-get install firefox fails.

[17:03] :D [17:03] MB [17:03] on an SSD that decreases the speed [17:03] considering the mobile choices ubuntu is making [17:03] it is counter-productive [17:03] UserError1 you could always create an installation script to help out all of us :D [17:03] why do you think ubuntu is frantically working to shrink packages [17:03] such as lightdm [17:03] does anyone here know a way to find details with in /sys/bus/pci in order to create udev rules ?

It keeps telling me: "qmentat 0.8-1ppa1 in quantal (same version already has published binaries in the destination archive)" Any idea what I'm doing wrong? [17:07] thing is [17:07] GeekDude: did you try yelling at it? [17:07] Akiva-Mobile, No, but I might if I can't figure it out soon [17:07] hi all, i've just upgraded kernel via repos to 3.5.0-26, and network isnt working. The strange thing is, the only thing that works is IRC, i cant even ping google, no browsers work etc... any ideas? [17:07] GeekDude: minecraft caused that? it works normally if you do other graphics related stuff? [17:08] Slart, Yeah. It's java related, I'm pretty sure [17:08] GeekDude: it might be your graphics card overheating [17:08] Akiva-Mobile, It's a built-in graphics card. It does this within the first 2 minutes of playing [17:08] GeekDude: that application is just amazingly gpu intensive [17:08] geekdude which card? [17:08] shankstaBytes: scenario 1 : laptop has a 24g SSD with 6gb swap space taken and a 500gb HDD (190gb : win8/260gb data) [17:09] Akiva-Mobile, I don't actually know. I'm using the Sun java (Oracle's java 6) [17:09] GeekDude: I highly doubt java will crash your system like that... something else is broken and minecraft might just be the final straw.. overheating, graphics drivers or something else [17:09] GeekDude: I would consider checking your hardware, CPU and Memory first, they *should't* kernel panic and a lot of times it's hardware related [17:09] apache2 on ubuntu, trying to test a simple cgi, error log says "premature end of script headers"...? [17:09] i feel 16gb is quite small for a new OS, can i have the /home stuff being thrown in the 260 gb data partition [17:09] h00k, I've run a memtest through 2 passes, so It's probably not the memory [17:10] GeekDude: what kind of graphics hardware do you have? [17:10] GeekDude: no i mean, ati, nvidia? [17:10] intel? [17:10] Akiva-Mobile, I'll look up the specs [17:10] Clearly radeon, basd on the kernel panic. [17:10] GeekDude: try something like the unigine valley benchmark.. see if that kills the system as well [17:10] wdonkey swap is used during sleep/when you close the lid of a laptop if you dont have a laptop then it doesn't matter [17:10] Hi [17:11] wdonkey at least that is what people have told me [17:11] swap is also used for 4k r/w [17:11] Akiva-Mobile, According to the internet, my computer model has "ATI Radeon Xpress 1100 Chipset Onboard Video" [17:11] geekdude that card... can run MC? [17:11] Slart, Unigine valley benchmark? [17:11] UserError1, With optifine having everything turned down/off [17:11] ok shankstaBytes thanks for your help.. [17:12] Is there anything to do tu upgrade from 13.04beta to final ? Or is an apt-get dist-upgrade sufficient ? [17:12] GeekDude: it's just a graphics intensive demo that is available for linux.. if graphics is the problem I'm pretty sure that will trigger it [17:12] I would guess that it's overheating. [17:12] !final | Taptoula [17:12] Taptoula: If you install a development version of Ubuntu Raring and keep up with package updates, then you will be upgraded to the official release of 13.04 when it comes out. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a terminal. [17:12] GeekDude: I don't know for sure, but for minecraft, that will throw your gpu into overoverdrive for sure [17:12] shankstaBytes: swap is used for transient memory that won't fit in RAM, it uses your hard drive when the memory space is full [17:12] Djones : it does answer my question perfectly :) thanks [17:12] h00k ya i know but nowadays that never happens [17:13] Akiva-Mobile, I have it dual booting with windows, should I try running MC on windows instead? [17:13] I have 16 GIGs of ram on my laptop haha [17:13] shankstaBytes: I would argue that point, it really depends on the application. Anyway, that is what it is used for. [17:13] ya [17:13] GeekDude: might work, but if it crashes there too, then you would have your answer [17:13] GeekDude: http://unigine.com/ they have a couple of benchmarks.. not sure which ones are available for linux.. [17:13] when I boot the laptop without any external attached, and then plug in my monitor to the HDMI port, the desktop will split between the two monitors. However, if I boot with the external plugged in already, ubuntu doesn't recognize the laptop display at all, any ideas? [17:13] radeon drivers typically are better for windows [17:13] h00k but most normal applications will work fine within 4 gigs [17:13] but then again, you have to run bloody windows, which sucks [17:13] easily [17:14] I'm having problems with compiz and unity after the upgrade, I can't get unity to work even with the ccsm, every time I enable unity it ask me to enable other stuff then it resets [17:14] I had a boyfriend named Ubuntu once.

[17:26] wmp I'd still say to do a fresh install [17:26] it will be faster [17:26] Slart, yes [17:26] Akiva-Mobile: no :) [17:26] bitnumus: ok, then it seems your networking works.. it's just the dns settings that's bad [17:26] bitnumus: cat /etc/resolv.conf [17:26] Slart, no [17:26] bitnumus, paste on http://pastebin.com/ [17:26] www.google.com. 192 IN A 173.194.34.82 [17:26] where is that gnome session data stored on raring? it used to be on /tmp but there it is not anymore [17:26] chop1n, read the scroll i have no browser access :) [17:27] bitnumus: that's close enough =) [17:27] bitnumus, hah! :P [17:27] wmp, that has 8.8.8.8 in it, because i was tsting that, nothing works [17:27] this is crazy [17:27] bitnumus: could you give content? [17:27] # Generated by NetworkManager [17:27] 8.8.8.8 [17:28] Shouldn't it be "nameserver 8.8.8.8" [17:28] chop1n: Yes it should. [17:28] should NetworkManager be running as root, and dnsmasq running as 'nobody' [17:29] Addle, it should? network manager added that not me [17:29] bitnumus: echo 'nameserver 8.8.8.8' > /etc/resolv.conf [17:29] bitnumus: Yeah, that's pretty strange. [17:29] yeah ... your resolv.conf looks wrong to me then [17:29] Je suis là . [17:29] hmm [17:29] don't know why though [17:29] how can i restart network manager ? [17:29] A bug in NetworkManager perhaps? [17:30] without logging out, [17:30] or should i just log out [17:30] hold that thought! [17:30] The resolv.conf should take effect right away, I believe. [17:31] wtf ? [17:31] yep [17:31] looks like a bug. [17:31] pulseaudio no longer plays stuff through my speakers after upgrade to quantal [17:31] Noounix: acronyms also are included in the !language ffor the room, please mind it [17:31] thanks all! [17:32] out of curiosity, why wouldnt no DNS work ? [17:32] bitnumus: It would, as long as you don't mind using IP addresses for everything. :) [17:32] anyone? [17:33] i would like to configure my wireless to connect automatically when system boots, i am currently using wpa_cli to do so but would like to automate the process [17:33] i mean, what is default ? [17:33] :? [17:33] Addle, if on network manage 'Automatic DCHP' was selected [17:33] what would it use in that case? [17:33] bitnumus: the default dns usually comes from the network provider, if you're using dhcp [17:33] bitnumus: The DHCP should tell it what DNS to use, generally. [17:33] odd, i have no idea [17:33] but network manager isn't including 'nameserver' [17:34] bitnumus: if you're on a static ip you usually get information about your ip, gateway, dns and whatnot [17:34] I need a realtime versioning backup util for ubuntu CLI... anyone know of one? [17:34] bitnumus,did you try to reset your router? [17:34] OerHeks, lol [17:34] thanks all [17:34] bitnumus: Yeah, the evidence that NetworkManager has a bug is pretty good. It even signed its name in the file. :) [17:34] bitnumus: Might want to think about filing a bug report. [17:34] cup of tea first :) [17:38] new ubuntu user anything i need to do the upgrade for 13.04 beta to full release [17:38] onewanman: usually it just upgrades to the real thing when you run the regular updates [17:38] onewanman: Nope, just update normally. [17:39] thanks [17:40] Akiva-Mobile, I've updated java, and it seems to be running better in windows than in ubuntu. It hasn't crashed. Yet.

[17:41] GeekDude: Great, [17:41] Hello, is it wise to update from 12.10 to 13? considering all the apps installed etc and them being configured etc.. [17:41] GeekDude: a guilty pleasure on a sinful system, but oh well [17:41] java will come around [17:41] Snake2k: no [17:42] judging by all the people in here with problems upgrading [17:42] fresh installs are much more advised [17:42] Snake2k: I've had two upgrades go without incident, also [17:42] Akiva-Mobile, Hmmm I see.. so chances are my files can pretty much get screwed.. [17:42] Snake2k: make sure you have a backup of your important stuff, just in case [17:42] how can i kill the gnome session in raring? where is it??? [17:43] Snake2k: what I would do is boot a live cd, resize the partition, install it on the free space, test the upload, and if it works, boot the live cd again, and destroy your old isntallation and resize your new one to fit your disk [17:43] Snake2k: your mileage may vary [17:43] snake2k dont forget about ubuntuone [17:43] you get 5 gigs free to backup ysour stuff [17:43] anyways, I am out [17:43] later folks [17:43] id love to try out the new Ubuntu but the installer wont even boot [17:43] anyone else having the iso not boot [17:44] Akiva-Mobile, Thanks for the advice :) I'll consider the live cd thing :) [17:44] bye Akiva-Mobile [17:44] !verify | Endafy make sure your boot media is okay [17:44] Endafy make sure your boot media is okay: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [17:44] I swear release after release yall release junk [17:44] the boot media is fine [17:44] I used torrent [17:44] checked the md5 [17:44] it wont boot [17:44] lmao [17:44] h00k, Backup of stuff in my Home folder or file system right?

[17:51] Draxelis: though https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=226002 indicates they are working on merging it into the stable channel quickly, so you may just want to wait [17:51] Someone...please help me setting up ubuntu on raid0 [17:52] Draxelis: yes you can do that to workaround the issue as well [17:52] hello [17:52] how do I completely zero my hard drive? [17:52] like, delete absolutely everything? [17:52] hello , can someone recommend a decent firewall for Ubuntu 13.04 that will show ips instead of using UF please ? [17:53] trism, won't installing libudev0 cause any problems with future chrome releases? [17:53] maykr___, cat /dev/null > device [17:53] Draxelis: shouldn't [17:53] key thing to remember about raid in ubuntu is that in fstab you shoudl use the UUID and not the name [17:53] ok thank you [17:53] why on earth did ubuntu change the software center icon to an Apple capital letter [17:53] ezra-s: no output. does that mean it has already been erased? [17:54] apple store could use that icon [17:54] .isitout [17:54] Yay! 13.04 is out, it it faster than Unity 2D on Ubuntu 12.04? [17:54] !isitout [17:54] maykr___, that 0's all the hard disk, it should take some time I believe, depends on the size of the disk, oh a with "device" I mean the disk you want to zero not the word "device" [17:54] YES! It's out! [17:55] ezra-s: oh lol i was typing in "device" [17:55] Draxelis: as it is their fix just creates a symlink to libudev1 in /opt/google/chrome named libudev.so.0 and the package deps on libudev0 or libudev1 [17:55] And also is 13.04 a great release? [17:55] maykr___, no wonder it went so fast [17:55] !firewall [17:55] Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw (GNOME) and Guarddog (KDE from Lucid onwards) also exist. === milefork is now known as Nimda3 [17:55] And do i have to install it from a disk, or can i use the update manager to get it?

[17:57] maykr___, whatever your device is, /dev/mapper means probably your disk is encrypted or under lvm [17:58] maykr___, when you do that make also sure you are not zeroing the disk you have used to boot your pc on [17:59] tweak === michael is now known as Guest86760 [18:02] what is an app to browse what fonts are installed ?

[18:15] i got win 8 installed on my pc. and then just today, i added ubuntu. for some reason, the familiar grub is not showing [18:15] windows just autoboots [18:15] Hilarie: man find. the first parameter is the dir you want it to start at. it will recurse [18:16] Alrighty, Thank you Carlfk [18:16] maybe i did something wrong with installation. I did not choose install alongside windows 8. I did manual partition [18:16] Hilarie: and it is going to do the --exec thing for each file (oh, and dir...) replacing {} with the name of the file/dir [18:17] would anyone please help me install ubuntu?

[18:19] that suck [18:20] wdonkey: unless win can now use a unix swap partition - guessing win still uses the .. um.. soemthing file [18:20] that is why i quit years ago [18:20] ooops wrong windows sorry [18:21] CarlFK: what would you do. i've got a 24g SSD with 6gb used for win8 swapspace, the rest is free, and i have a 500gb 5400rpm HDD with win8 on 190gb and a d:/ partition of 260gb for files [18:21] i want to do a fresh ubuntu nstall [18:21] I am off to Papeete for 3 weeks of hospital and control and am trying to get an Asus TF700 up and running to have some means of communicating and getting info while there, I really need some help and could use some pointers on the tablet I realize that this is the Ubuntu Xchat, but if anyone here might know what I need or can point me to the proper xchat page I would appreciate it [18:22] wdonkey: "I" have no use for windows, so I would dump it ;/ [18:22] Hello, Is their any common cause recently which makes all tabs say "The connection to the server was reset" [18:22] same for me, but its the gf's PC and she just might want to keep windows arround [18:23] maheanuu: If you're not asking about your Ubuntu install, then maybe ##hardware or ##windows would a better place? [18:23] Is anyone here using Brasero to burn ISO Images to DVD? === BadLarry_ is now known as BadLarry [18:23] wdonkey: you might be able to get linux to use the win swap file. but that seems risky. I guess just dedicate some of your ssd to swap, and some of your HD too. [18:24] Pici,It's a Android Device, and I do NOT run any version of windoze on anything I own [18:24] would you install the swapspace along with ubuntu on the SSD and have the /home folder on the HDD ? [18:24] does flash come with chromium in ubuntu repos? [18:24] somehow i have flash even though i did not install it. i thought only chrome had it bundled not chromium [18:24] wdonkey: if you are running win, you prolly have lots of ram, like 4+gig. good chance you don't really need any swap for linux [18:24] varikonniemi: no, but flash is bundled with Chrome/Chromium, built into the browser. [18:25] got like 6 gb of ram [18:25] just trying to figure out the best partition scheme for that situation [18:26] wdonkey: it depends on what apps, how many, what you do with them.. [18:26] h00k, all pages say only chrome has it bundled, not chromium [18:26] wdonkey: most likely anything you do will work just fine :) [18:27] most hardcore thing might be watching a movie or playing with pictures on gimp [18:27] varikonniemi: oh, maybe I'm wrong, but I know Chrome does.

I have an old computer here and trying to put 12.04 on it. I want it to take up the entire harddrive. Im in the installation and im at installation type where I can define partitions. I have /dev/sda with no type mp format size or used, then below it is free space of 80 gigs. When I try to install over 80 gigs it says no root [18:31] but it's except the time no problem, i've burned a cd and make a new install [18:32] how do i set this up for install? I changed mount point to / and it says I need swap. Can anyone walk me through how to properly set this up?

[18:57] torva: ended up figuring out an easier way, going to guided partitioning and letting it wipe all of my LVMs and MDs then going back to manual [18:57] I hate ubuntu since 11 version [18:57] hazardous, are you going to partition the old way ? [18:57] :| [18:57] aressz: cool, there are loads of alternatives you can use instead [18:58] Yes, for me Linux mint is the best cuz it never gives me any problems [18:58] have got any problems yet with it [18:58] haven't === rclancy is now known as Guest6262 [18:59] ok aressz. Did you know today is a release day and this channel is rather busy? [18:59] No [18:59] djzn: what is partition the old way [18:59] hazardous, you said you wiped lvm [19:00] djzn: oh no, the dc installed ubuntu for me and fucked it up terribly with overlapping vm's and weird stuff [19:00] lvms [19:00] i just wanted to kill all partition tables and redo it [19:00] hazardous: please watch the language and keep it family friendly [19:00] hazardous: language, please [19:00] ah === torva is now known as blazemore [19:05] keyboard-configuration seems broken in 13.04 [19:06] hangs when trying to configure (connected via ssh) [19:09] Can an Ubuntu image be written w/ dd? I'm on Arch Linux but would like to try 13.04. [19:09] To a USB key? [19:09] tb01110100, Yes [19:09] Cool, thanks. [19:09] iso or install [19:10] looks like ubuntu screwed up 13.04 for servers that are admined via ssh [19:10] :( [19:10] How do I actually close a chat client like pidgin in 13.04? If I close it, and someone messages me, it pops up again in the messaging tab [19:11] sonOfRa file > quit (or exit) [19:11] hi === Parhs8 is now known as fdsdf [19:12] spotter: how ? [19:12] huh. is it not possible to properly close it just via closing the window, or hitting "Quit" in the sidebar? [19:12] that's REALLY annoying :S [19:13] http://bit.ly/17Y47h2 what do you think of this anti ubuntu [19:13] Will ubuntu ever work? [19:13] sonOfRa: tell that to skype users :P [19:13] rdm never, not supposed to [19:13] k, then I'll stop trying [19:13] rdm what's the issue? [19:14] It always detects errors, GPU Hang up or something, asks me to report it. Then it does it again about 60 seconds later [19:14] rdm that's apparmor, you can disable it [19:15] k I'll try that [19:15] thanks [19:15] Does 13.04 work with triple or quad monitors out of the box like windows??? [19:15] SevenBizzos multi monitors is a pain in linux at large [19:15] I have 3 monitors working with full accel across two 9800GTXs with the proprietary nvidia driver and base mosaic [19:15] Monkeydust: I know, but someone claimed it was plug and play in 13.04 on the forums... [19:15] and it took some tweaking so it depends I guess is the answer [19:15] Monkeydust: so I was hoping they fixed it to be like windows [19:16] yeah, disabling that didn't work [19:16] isn't that supposed to be part of xrandr 1.4? [19:17] anybody getting random unity / compiz freeze ups in 13.04? [19:17] hmm.. i didnt want to tweak just wanted to plug, and play :( was thinking they would have fixed it by now [19:17] georgelappies, The channel works with you presenting your problems. ;) [19:17] I've aliased my NIC to a second IP on the same subnet using "ip addr add ip.add.ress.here/24 brd brd.add.ress.here dev eth1:0", but the alias isn't accepting incoming traffic. Any ideas? [19:18] well its typically up to the drivers [19:18] Is the following sudoers entry forwarded correctly? %groupname ALL=NOPASSWD: awk, cat, chkconfig, chmod [19:18] jnl_: so its not that hard once you have the proprietary nvidia drivers? [19:18] what cards do you have? [19:19] Hello :) [19:19] Wanted to share a new programming forum: http://thedevshed.net/forum/ [19:19] My browser isn't auto-downloading the ISO.

[19:19] Hello9 #ubuntu-offtopic, not here [19:19] How do we not have a spam factoid. [19:19] well if you get new enough nvidia cards yes it will work [19:19] Anyway, Hello9, do not spam. [19:19] the ubuntu 13.04 is only transfering @ about 17 kbs a second.. anyone else having d/l problems? [19:19] jnl_: ok thank you, I will do that [19:19] look for nvidia-xconfig with --base-mosaic [19:20] whoops7 [19:20] psyrus servers may be busy === qos is now known as qos|away [19:20] you have to tell it GPU inputs and resolutions and arrangement but its not real hard and then it just all works [19:20] outputs I mean [19:20] psyrus use torrent [19:20] psyrus: torrent might work better this close to the release. [19:20] so I have to make a custom xorg.conf file?? [19:20] no the nvidia-xconfig will do it for you [19:20] My browser isn't auto-downloading the ISO. Can I please have a direct link to the disk images? [19:20] jhutchins_wk: torrent link ? [19:21] ok [19:21] thanks [19:21] Oh wait.

Version 0.98+debian-9 (raring), package size 72 kB, installed size 204 kB [19:22] odt, There is an app or from the command line here is a ppa for the app, use at your own risk. https://launchpad.net/~nilarimogard/+archive/webupd8 [19:22] I found http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/texlive-fonts-extra "barcodes -- Fonts for making barcodes." but I don' t think that is a normal system font [19:22] how big should swap size be for a 256MB Ram server? [19:22] OerHeks: that doesn't seem to be a font [19:23] Neozonz|Disc: go with the default unless you need something special [19:23] CarlFK, I got out of memory when compiling [19:24] so I bumped it to 1GB for swap.. yet my actual ram is at 256mb [19:24] Neozonz|Disc: that is special :) although I am kinda surprised. compiling doesn't normally need gobs of memory. [19:24] apparently compiling litecoin does... [19:25] it keeps crapping out too and I got no idea why because there are no status logs [19:25] unless I dont know where to look [19:26] is anybody der? [19:26] yuhuu === qos|away is now known as qos [19:27] Neozonz|Disc: make sure you are only using thread. no clue how. but using all the cpu cores takes more memory [19:27] if you're creating a launcher for an app, and you need to specify an argument before the binary you want to run on the Exec= line, what's the proper syntax for that? [19:27] I'm using 4 threads? [19:27] thanks again for the torrent, its downloading much better. one quick question, i am just gunna leave about 150 gig of unalocated space and this ubuntu 13.04 distro will confiure the partitions all for me w/o overwriting windows correct? [19:28] is it possible to make a lan messenger system to ubuntu units with a windows 7 admin? [19:28] I want to add LD_LIBRARY_PATH before the path to the binary I'm trying to launch [19:28] is it possible to make a lan messenger system to ubuntu units with a windows 7 admin? [19:28] Neozonz|Disc: each thread will use a wad of memory. [19:28] is it possible to make a lan messenger system to ubuntu units with a windows 7 admin? [19:28] SuperLag: if you need to set environment variables, you are better off making a script and using that on the Exec= line [19:28] CarlFK, anywhere i can check for a previous compile log? [19:28] is it possible to make a lan messenger system to ubuntu units with a windows 7 admin? [19:28] trism: Okay. Fair enough. That's how I do it for another app. :) [19:29] Neozonz|Disc: I think you need to pipe it to a file === michagogo_ is now known as michagogo [19:29] is there a way to get an icon on the desktop (~/home/user/Desktop) that points to a samba share!? [19:29] schultza: points in what way? [19:30] im dealing with windows users who like to click on a folder to open a samba share... i need them to be able to do just that, but have it open up the samba share [19:30] ..but they are on linux === michagogo_ is now known as michagogo [19:31] 10 on 10 med off [19:31] ubuntu 12.04 64 bit with unity as their gui [19:31] schultza: in theory in GNU/Linux systes one mounts shares before opening them... So you probably want an automounter like 'autofs' or 'am-utils'. [19:32] autofs [19:32] grub only write cryptic sign on start, i can't get in the single-modus...... [19:32] after upgrading, Ubuntu 13.04's nvidia-current points to nvidia-304. but it looks like nvidia-310 is the "proprietary, tested" one. I wonder why it use 304. [19:32] schultza: then you just put the path to the samba share in the desktop item. [19:32] um... anyways, ubuntu-13.04-server-amd64.iso finished dnloading, is the right disc image ? i want the desktop 64 bit [19:32] Where can I locate the Ubuntu 12.04 boot screen so I can disconfigure ....please [19:32] but normal start works [19:32] i cant see how to do that. [19:32] psyrus_: the desktop image would be -desktop-amd64, -server is the server image [19:32] all i have is create folder, or create document. [19:33] schultza: some desktop environments have the ability to access remote mounts directly, but then ordinary programs cannot access them. [19:33] how do i set the default kernel without having boottime access to grub (no keyboard), bios is UEFI and "ubuntu" item seems to have been chosen there [19:33] ive tried 5 times to boot raring with an older kernel and not the latest one [19:33] schultza: you want to create a link, often it is enough to drag-and-drop the the desktop; or you just create a document '.desktop' file and then edit it to contain the path you want. [19:33] comes up with 3.8.0-19 every time [19:34] ok.. thank you .. i will try those options [19:34] schultza: '.desktop' files are just text files with a set of fields describing them. [19:34] psy [19:34] schultza: alternatively just create a symbolic link in '~/Desktop/' [19:34] hey..i just managed to install ubuntu but now it wont load. when i try to boot ubuntu, some sort of vertical red-orage line pattern appears on the screen and nothing happens [19:35] i tried that symbolic link.. it gave me an error stating it needed a locally addressed file for sym links [19:35] drag drop didnt work, it wants to copy and then tells me, it's not a directory [19:35] can anyone help, i cant upgrade 3.4.2 nautilus to 3.6 [19:36] im using the correct PPA, but im using elementary OS, i thought id ask here seeing as its ubuntu under the hood [19:36] !torrent [19:36] Some torrent clients: Transmission (GTK and terminal-based), Deluge-Torrent, Freeloader, BitStormLite, BitTornado-GUI (GTK), KTorrent (KDE), QTorrent (Qt), Azureus/Vuse (Java), !Frostwire (Java), TorrentFlux (web-based), bittornado, rTorrent, cTorrent, bittorrent, aria2 (terminal-based) - FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/help/faq - See also !P2P [19:36] * schultza is looking up .desktop files [19:36] ubottu ubuntu 13.04 desktop torrent [19:36] psyrus: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [19:36] do i have to repeat my question? :/ [19:37] Hi Everyone! :) [19:37] schultza: of course it needs a locally addressed file. But when you use an automounted like 'autofs' or 'am-utils' it will mount the Samba share and the symlink will point at a "local" file. [19:37] was 13.04 released today? [19:37] hey..i just managed to install ubuntu but now it wont load. when i try to boot ubuntu, some sort of vertical red-orage line pattern appears on the screen and nothing happens [19:37] schultza: you can create symlinks that point to files that don't exist yet.

[19:45] recovery mode* [19:45] syntroPi, maybe a Nvidia driver reinstall would help === dasein is now known as Guest17642 [19:45] SuperLag: might not recognize Internet as a category, the firefox.desktop has Network and WebBrowser (not sure which would be more appriopriate for yours) [19:46] sc30317, i didnt test it on bare hw yet, just in vbox. your problem occured after nvidia-current? [19:46] trism: I guess I'll have to make a closer comparison between something that does show up on the Internet menu, and this one :) [19:46] syntroPi, not sure [19:46] SuperLag: indeed [19:47] trism: thank you for your help, sir. Much appreciated. [19:47] sc30317, have looked at /var/log/Xorg.0.log and dmesg? [19:48] In Ubuntu 13.04. rebooting guarantees kernel panic on boot. shutdown then boot works fine.

[19:51] I wonder when Ubuntu let me set font preference. default setting prefers Chinese fonts over Japanese fonts. [19:51] and by "a lot", I should say... a ***LOT*** [19:52] so I have to put .fonts.conf in my home directory. [19:52] anyone here familiar with apt-build?

[20:11] subthalamus, do you remember which hw / kernel module is used? maybe lspci or lsusb can indicate which kernel module to modprobe? then it also should leave you a msg in dmesg [20:11] syntroPi: hmm, yea, alsamixer says HDA Intel is maxed out on volume [20:11] Aww, YOU have to go through 12.10 [20:11] Yeah I know [20:11] Aww read some review, first [20:12] don't upgrade. there're problems, wait couple weeks [20:12] Okay, I think waiting will be the best as well [20:12] subthalamus, hda intel is only the interface to the actual sound chip. eg here i have hda intel -> realtek -> analog out [20:13] Aww: doooo iiiiit [20:13] chrome is crippled on 13.04 [20:13] I only want to upgrade for Unity 7 [20:13] how is it crippled?

I may check it out but didn't know if i install 3.8 if it then becomes unsupported [20:53] litropy: 'smokeping' for example [20:53] I notice that the latest mini.iso is not listed on the site. However, I found this: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/raring/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso ... Its date is April 19, so is this a beta image or is it the final release of raring mini.iso? === Highlander is now known as Guest66338 [20:56] Walex, interesting. Does it have live CLI functionality? I'm kinda frugal with my system resources, so having a browser tab open isn't out of the question, but it's still undesirable. [20:57] so to condense the question, is the mini.iso located at http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/raring/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso the final release version of Raring Ringtail 13.04? [20:57] I guess that doesn't condense it that much... [20:58] can someone in plain english tell me what this means: if [ ! -z $foo ] ; [20:58] ericab, that looks incomplete to me... [20:58] hello, i have just installed 13.04, change graphic drivers to nvidia proprietary (tested) and unity crashed upon reboot [20:59] what should i do now ? [20:59] aPpYe yes i know, but what does it mean sofar [20:59] i mean, *as is* [20:59] ericab: you will likely have good luck in #bash [20:59] Eric12, it means if $foo is not empty [20:59] thanks meerkat [20:59] can i bulk add users to a group with passwords from a csv file [20:59] ericab: if the variable $foo is non-zero [20:59] Stameni, Use the repos drivers, kernel updates will brick thosew [20:59] meerkat, that is complete as is? [20:59] h00k, isn't it non-zero in length? [21:00] wilee-nilee, i used additional drivers option [21:00] meerkat: probably [21:00] Stameni, Ah, proprietary means directly from nvidia. [21:00] meerkat so you basically, if the ariable is defined yes ? [21:00] variable* [21:01] wilee-nilee, it was written proprietary in the breckets [21:01] hello, i am trying to run skype. it loads and everything but the main screen is transparent. what would cause this? [21:01] Stameni, Cool, just making sure is all, to get help though give the channel details on the crash, not me. ;) [21:01] in the taskbar i can right click on it and use it but the other window is just transparent [21:01] ericab, yes. Like h00k said, you're going to find a chan chock-full of people to help you in #bash [21:02] ericab, but they'll know you're a noob right away, so be patient and don't get offended. [21:02] Ok- im at a loss. Something happen to one of my laptops. When ever i try to run anything outside of a terminal, it crashses. Most program i try to begin using a terminal also crash occasionally [21:02] subcool: are you closing the terminal after you launch the program? [21:03] dingle- no its nothing like that [21:04] meerkat? [21:04] If i try to run anything, xchat, firefox, chrome, anything- they will begin to start. THen crash. - I have tried to use terminal to open the same programs, and they crash as well - no error messages are viewable. [21:04] Eric12, uh, yes [21:05] you highlighted me earlier [21:05] [16:59:22] Eric12, it means if $foo is not empty [21:05] subcool, anything interesting in dmesg? [21:05] so now there is no unity and i just see few ikons on the desktop, how to run software-update now and change to noveau driver again ? [21:05] Eric12, oh, wrong eric, then. :) [21:05] litropy, i havent viewed it yet. [21:06] that story makes me not want to get nvidia card for my system. following along now [21:06] subcool, I'd boot up, run dmesg, run a prog, wait for it to crash, then run dmesg again and see what changed. [21:06] my laptop really doesn't want to burn raring [21:06] subcool, I think there are other logs you can check, but I don't know them off-hand [21:07] litropy, ok- ill give it a whirl now. [21:07] dank101, Really does it tell you in your dreams or straightup. ;) [21:07] I get some mess of dependencies when trying to install wine on someones computer: http://pastebin.com/Lq7KBMRa (apologies for the german, i dont understand it either, but its the same stuff you usally get with aptitude) Why is this, and what can I do to fix it, as when they tried installing it before it broke x and i had to fix it. [21:08] sdrhrgjkng, Have you tried playonlinux it is a bit easier [21:08] wilee-nilee, it's no reading the disk in startup creator [21:08] >:( [21:08] sdrhrgjkng: And why aptitude vs. apt-get? [21:08] sdrhrgjkng, don't use aptitude; use apt-get [21:08] first impression: ubuntu has the slowest gui in the world [21:08] wilee-nilee: same problem with play on linux, it pulls in wine [21:09] onr, and your video card/drivers are what? [21:09] dank101, Have you checked the sum? try another loader like unetbootin or there are many others. [21:09] SonikkuAmerica: because apt-get wine broke it in the first place and aptitude seems to warn me before it does that [21:09] wilee-nilee, it's a dvd [21:09] sdrhrgjkng: What about [ sudo apt-get -f install ]? [21:09] sdrhrgjkng, I doubt it was apt-get that broke it.

[21:12] wilee-nilee, thats my problem [21:12] I can't get the lspci output into the browser [21:12] litropy: should I give it a go or will it break x again? why is aptitude crying? [21:12] !

[21:29] as i run 16 Mac Mini's in a production environment all running Ubuntu [21:29] so i'm quite versed with the pro's/con's [21:29] Fishscene, there still is... but its not what you'd imagine exactly [21:29] why did you convert 16 macminis? === allibratore is now known as cristian_c [21:30] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/current/raring-server-amd64+mac.iso [21:30] tekk: Do you have any resources/blogs on that? I run a lab of 30 macbooks and we've been having some challenges (granted they're 5 years old...) [21:30] This is an interesting discussion for #ubuntu-offtopic [21:30] johnjohn101, what I need them for sadly isn't supported in OS X [21:30] sdrhrgjkng, it sounds like you need the 64-bit wine package, which has been the problem all along. [21:30] Fishscene, my blog http://mike.kz has a post regarding latest Mac Mini in a datacenter environment with drivers etc [21:30] sdrhrgjkng, not exactly sure, though [21:31] Thanks mate. I'll trawl through it looking for hints and insight into my own ubuntu lab. [21:31] i'm still having a few niggly issues which I didn't document with USB device performance and reliability and kernel stability under BIOS emulation...

[21:37] maykr_: Thats not how it works maykr_ [21:37] wait, no I'm wrong [21:38] <__CodingNinja> this is annoying because it must be a regression bug [21:38] It looks like it was generated in Putty at one point [21:38] blazemore: actually was id_rsa.ppk and it used to work with putty. [21:38] yes. exactly [21:38] Yes, openssh isn't Putty [21:38] i thought it would work, lol. [21:38] Do you have password access to the server? [21:38] <__CodingNinja> any ideas? [21:39] maykr_: run "ssh-keygen" and follow the prompts. Defaults are fine [21:39] maykr_: Then run "ssh-copy-id user@host" and put in the password (the login password for user, not the passphrase for the ssh key) [21:39] maykr_: From then on it will work [21:40] <__CodingNinja> should I file a bug report? [21:40] subcool, not sure. [21:40] __CodingNinja, search existing bug reports first. [21:41] I'm trying to help a friend with a messed up PowerBook G4. It had MacOS 10.4, but she no longer has the install DVD. It worked OK, then suddenly during boot the Apple logo turns to slashed-circle and it just hangs forever... [21:41] Holding Cmnd-S doesn't get to a UNIX shell, just a repeating message which (I don't have it in front of me) suggests it can't mount the HDD. So I tried to install Ubuntu raring on it... [21:41] I tried the various options that yaboot suggests, but the screen goes blank a few seconds after trying to boot and stays that way (20+ minutes). What should I try? [21:42] AlexLibman: Can you boot from a live CD? [21:42] litropy, im not getting much on my google. search [21:42] subcool, I'm seeing what I can find ...

[21:43] litropy, nevermind- i just messaed up- appears i have a wifi issue. [21:43] Fishscene: NSFW, ban [21:43] blazemore: no, like I said, none of the options suggested in yaboot (help or the list you get by pressing tab) would boot. [21:43] oh excellent. good thing I didn't click it. [21:44] fdsdf's link is NSFW [21:44] Fishscene nop [21:44] blaze more, to update... i don't think 13.04 supports Ethernet on Mac Mini 2012 out the box...

[21:44] hi [21:44] subcool, yes, I can see that you have a wifi issue, but that doesn't explain why your progs are crashing. [21:45] AlexLibman what did you do ? [21:45] subcool, did you mean to say that your progs can't connect? [21:46] how to connect a presonus usb over ubuntu studio? [21:46] subcool, I'm stumped if your progs are still crashing. Maybe someone else can help. [21:46] Just presented my point of view that copyfree (permissive) software licensing is better, and that copyleft is a bad idea. [21:46] will I be able to install ubuntu on a PowerBook G4 where the system drive is a flash drive? Because my optical drive and hdd are broken. [21:47] litropy, its been like this for days. i think an update went bad.. [21:48] Anyway, is there anything else I can try to get 2013-04 PPC to boot on PowerBook G4? [21:48] AlexLibman: What's the problem? [21:49] No matter what I choose in yaboot, after a couple of boot outboot lines the screen goes blank and it hangs forever.

[21:51] I belive theres a #ubuntu-forums channel [21:51] That too... [21:51] or make a new forum account? [21:51] you got banned? [21:52] Im rarely on the forums any more. I tend to hang on askubuntu.com [21:52] I'm on both places, but rarely touch it b/c of IRC == fastttt [21:53] i recall askubuntu.com having some sort of chat also.. but been ages sinc eive tried that [21:53] I tend to just search askubuntu.com a lot. since its in the help lens's now [21:54] The things we can do with the lenses... [21:54] i thought unity 7 was going to ship with 13.04. [21:54] AlexLibman: you're getting segfaults on anything you run, and you think this isn't related to your wlan problems? I'd say something is royally messed up with either your ubuntu install or with your hardware === rafael is now known as Guest87584 [21:55] er, sorry, that was for subcool [21:55] what is the fastest way to download 13.04 iso [21:55] harris: steal dvd from coworker!!

[21:57] Draxelis: What's your hardware? [21:57] pr_confidential, make the usb, set bios to boot from it.. boot.. if the hardware supports it [21:57] just something to play around with. There is no hd in it at all. [21:57] SonikkuAmerica, i3, 6gbram, radeon, ssd [21:57] I was watching tutorials on cd with natty narwall / netbook remix [21:57] I just upgraded from 12.10 to 13.04, and now my dm-crypt password doesn't work :( [21:58] a tutorial, sorry.

[21:59] pr_confidential, does you BIOS give you the option of booting from USB? [21:59] a second computer so I can learn more [21:59] sc30317: Additional Drivers [21:59] yes it does. [21:59] not much useful in the log. "Nokey available with this passphrase. [21:59] SonikkuAmerica: which driver should I be installing [21:59] cryptsetup: cryptsetup failed, bad password or options?

I could always do manual aprtitioning, but I'm relcutant since I'm afraid that means GRUB2 won't be able to detect Windows 8.

[22:29] sigh [22:30] can you have linux bootloaders [22:30] twobitsprite, well.. kinda? - half this is funky. im rebooting to see whats up === segnale007 is now known as Guest85258 === Guest85258 is now known as Segnale [22:30] cheese: http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html [22:31] omg [22:31] chaos7theory, If installed correctly grub 2 will see windows 8 many people are dual booted with W8 and ubuntu. [22:31] subcool: if you have any doubts about the integrity of dpkg and/or apt-get, I would recommend booting from the rescue CD... never know how much worse it can make things [22:31] can you write a boot loader with unix [22:32] n UEFI [22:32] i guess linux is unix right [22:32] cheese: do you have a ubuntu support question? [22:32] I guess it's more of an unusual issue with this Dell's weird UEFI/BIOS boot options [22:32] cheese: what do you mean by "write a boot loader"? [22:33] Being it's the three "Windows Boot Manager", "IP4 Realtek..." and "IP6 Realtek..." [22:33] cheese: Ubuntu (as with most Linux systems) comes with a boot loader: grub... why would you need to write one? [22:33] some software than boots from what you tell it to [22:33] ok cool [22:33] twobitsprite, idk- i did what the steps said - just outside of a LIveUSB. [22:34] can you run linux in the ram so its faster [22:34] subcool: ok, but if it breaks you get to keep both pieces :P [22:34] cheese: are you having performance problems? [22:34] no [22:34] but can you === matanya_ is now known as matanya [22:34] not yet i dont [22:34] cheese: you could try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic [22:35] twobitsprite, still nothing-... ugh- i guess ill reboot into it.. [22:35] cheese: please stick to ubuntu support questions in here. for linux support ask in #linux [22:35] You can technically load it into ramdisk.. but better have a lot of ram? [22:35] but- i dont think this is goign to fix it [22:35] no reply there [22:35] cheese: the linux kernel is loaded in to memory, as are all of the programs which are run at boot... the kernel also temporarily stores files from the filesystem in memory when they're requested by programs [22:35] anybody knows why I get this error with cowpatty when trying to crack my ap ? [22:35] chaos7theory, As long as you have an image/clone off the computer you can do anything. [22:35] SSID in hashfile ("04PPk99") does not match SSID specified on the [22:35] command line ("HOXAndroidAP"). You cannot mix and match SSID's for this [22:35] attack [22:35] Segnale: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [22:35] sorry [22:35] http://leftbraintinkering.blogspot.com/2012/12/dual-boot-linux-mint-13-with-windows-8_2.html This is my exact model. They recommend installing in BIOS/Legacy mode first then using boot-repoair. Is that recommended at all? [22:35] that wasnt my intention [22:35] b [22:35] yess but this is using just ram unless you write which it goes to the HDD on the remote computer [22:36] cheese: remote computer? what exactly are you doing? [22:36] hoping someone here can point me in the right direction on this deploy key / ssh problem I'm stuck on? https://gist.github.com/emjayess/5463489 [22:36] it's ubuntu 12.04 on AWS [22:37] [22:37] What is [22:38] Be right back. I'll test to see if Legacy mode detects it or not just in case [22:38] can grub load the boot process into the ram then run it from the ram [22:38] that is in an SSD locally or remotley [22:39] cheese: well, firstly, SSD is not the same thing as RAM... secondly, I recommend reading this good article on how bootloaders work: http://lennartb.home.xs4all.nl/bootloaders/node3.html [22:40] yes === alan_ is now known as Guest27469 [22:40] the ssd is where the OS etc is stored [22:40] but its just ran in the memory but changes are saved back in the ssd [22:40] right.... [22:41] cheese: I'm sure it is entirely possible to load the entire linux root FS into RAM and then execute from there during the boot process. But as far as I know, no one for decades has thought that this would be a worthwhile endeavor. Especially now that we have SSD's, which are wicked fast. === n000b is now known as n0000b === Plinker_ is now known as Plinker [22:42] While SSDs are faster, their lifespan is much shorter. pick your poison ;) [22:42] I need some help with my login screen on raring ringtail [22:42] Rolenun: depends on the ssd [22:43] no, it's a flaw in the design. feel free to google it [22:43] the manufacturers all ackowledge the flaw, but ppl want the speed so most dont say much :) [22:43] I need help with broken dependencies [22:43] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5602644 [22:44] ANyone!? - Segment faults.. [22:44] mmj: First, [ sudo apt-get -f install ] [22:44] Rolenun: nuh-uh YOU google it! :P seriously, good SSDs reallocate sectors dynamically to spread the load and have spare sectors to replace failed ones [22:44] !patience|subcool [22:44] subcool: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com/ or http://ubuntuforums.org/ or http://askubuntu.com/ === Karbowiak is now known as zz_Karbowiak [22:44] !google|twobitsprite [22:44] twobitsprite: While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. [22:44] In Ubuntu 13.04, dragging window is laggy. [22:44] failed [22:45] this is now most computers tht are not personal computers work [22:45] Rolenun, modern SSD's have lifetimes as long as discs. [22:45] mmj: Can you pastebin what you have? [22:45] I think it was 12.04 or 11.10 which behaved like this and then fixed. [22:45] some have HDDs in but some are diskless [22:45] SonikkuAmerica: er... I was repsonding to Rolenun who told ME to google it... :P [22:45] can someone help me with a dim display issue on ubuntu? [22:45] i wanna do this as its way faster than an SSD [22:45] * SonikkuAmerica pwnz himself at times, twobitsprite. [22:46] you can get ram that is 2400mhz now [22:46] SonikkuAmerica: :P [22:46] 2444* [22:46] nishanth, Not unless you give the details of your problem to the channel, not me. [22:46] cheese: why do you need it to be so fast? are you building a HPCC cluster or something? [22:47] Cheese: Most people who have embarked on this quest (believe me, you are so NOT the first) have discovered the cost of diminishing returns. The cost of developing that, plus what happens when the power dies, most people can't justify. [22:47] SonikkuAmerica, DId u see the new file i posted - Or..... [22:47] http://pastebin.com/tfa9r3JR === root is now known as Guest32232 [22:47] and i'll stand by my original statement. the design is based on rewriting a limited number of times to the disk. the lifespan is limited for a reason. google is your friend. :) [22:47] when the power dies it gets saved to the SSD OR HDD === Guest32232 is now known as ImagClaw [22:48] the RAM nas a battery or supercapacator it dosnt use AC (the ca does) but still [22:48] subcool: I did... [22:48] the ram has a battery * [22:48] cheese: the linux kernel does a lot of really cool things optimize for speed such as caching reads, buffering writes, etc, etc... I highly doubt you really need it all in RAM... 90% of your filesystem only gets touched very infrequently... [22:48] I have no clue how to fix this [22:48] it is expensive I know [22:48] cheese: When the power dies, everything in RAM is 100% lost. No time to save to SSD. Not unless you have it talking to a battery-backup. RAM does *not* have a battery. [22:48] So when i get the log in screen, the brightness is too low , you can barely tell the screen is turned on....anyone know how to fix this? [22:49] the ssd does sorry [22:49] nishanth: is this on an ASUS netbook/laptop, by any chance? [22:49] nishanth: Are there buttons on your machine that will fix it (monitor, software buttons, key combinations)? [22:49] well its like a hyperdrive [22:49] mong: no [22:49] it uses Nram [22:49] Hello. I'm installing Ubuntu server 12.10 on a RAID 1+0 (4x 1.5TB = 3TB) Right now the message is "Wiping swap space for security (this may take a while)…" It's been saying 12% for a while now, I don't know if it started at 12% or what. Should I be waiting for 15+ minutes on this part? I am using the default partitioning options. [22:49] cheese: it's more than expensive, it's a complete waste... I can't imagine what you would be doing that would require everything to be permanently in memory... most of the stuff is in memory already including the programs that are running and the files they're using [22:50] SonikkuAmerica: no i dont have any buttons that can turn up the brightness [22:50] where can I get the raring minimal for usb [22:50] nishanth: What's your hardware? === ftolentino is now known as Guest92298 [22:50] its a media server [22:50] SonikkuAmerica http://pastebin.com/tfa9r3JR [22:50] and centre === Guest92298 is now known as ftolentino2 [22:50] cheese: Again, you're getting into sophisticated engineering. So unless you're willing to lay down some mucho dinero, you might want to check out using Linux on an SSD. Believe me, you won't notice much of a difference between an SSD and a pure-RAM experience.... PLUS, you still get the full support of the linux community (running entirely in RAM is *very* niche and won't be supported by 99% of the people out there) [22:51] cheese: what kind of framerate are you using that SSD isn't fast enough? [22:51] mmj: Oh no... [22:51] is that really bad [22:51] SonikkuAmerica: its a hp pavilion laptop [22:51] Would there be any reason that I would not want to run 64-bit ubuntu given that the machine supports it? === ftolentino2 is now known as ftolentino [22:51] cheese: I *have* heard of people doing neat tricks, like running their program/webpage in RAM. One guy wrote a script that copies his website directory to RAM, then tells apache to load the webpage from there. [22:52] cool [22:52] cheese: sorry, that was a rhetorical question... seriously, if you're just serving movies, no need to worry about ssd being too slow [22:52] nishanth: I'm sure a Pavilion has a Fn+something command to mess with the brightness... [22:52] well it measn you dont need a HDD [22:52] So I just updated to 13.04 on a server install and it still prompts me: "New release '13.04' available. [22:52] Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it." What gives? [22:53] cheese: http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Diskless-HOWTO.html [22:53] thanks [22:53] GUYS How long should I be waiting for "wiping swap space for security" on my new installation? [22:54] cheese: but, where are you going to load the media from? [22:54] explodes: how long has it been? [22:54] explodes until it finishes. Do you think it crashed? check /var/log/messages [22:54] twobitsprite: About 30 minutes [22:54] Jeruvy: New installation. [22:54] explodes: how big is the swap? [22:54] DVD blu ray cd download etc [22:55] twobitsprite: :S Dunno, I used the default partitioning settings (RAID 1+0 4x 1.5 TB = 3 TB space, hardware RAID) [22:55] twobitsprite: I'd imagine the swap was no more than 50 GB [22:55] explodes ctrl-alt f1, login and check. [22:56] cheese: if this is a personal media server, just put a harddrive in it... no need to overthink the performance, trust me, it'll be plenty fast... you network will be slower than the HDD [22:56] I need help with broken dependencies [22:56] Jeruvy: CTRL-ALT F1 didn't work, (I haven't even finished installing yet) [22:56] http://pastebin.com/tfa9r3JR [22:56] network or ssd idk yet [22:57] so its just as cheap as a regular pc really [22:57] cheese: and having the entire filesystem in memory won't make it any faster [22:57] So I have an old laptop with no disc drive, bios doesn't support USB boot (usb 1.0 mind you) and the windows install is broken so wubi isn't an option. It can however boot from a flopy disc with a specific USB floppy disc drive and the current windows install can still copy files from Internet/flash drive. Given these circumstances is an ubuntu install feasible, and if so how might I go about doing it? [22:57] cheese: it won't be if you're buying enough RAM to load a whole media library in to it! :P [22:57] not all of it is [22:58] Oh ok never mind it is done ^___^ [22:58] jordan__: might want to look at something like this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/WithFloppies [22:58] Hey everyone. I am installing Ubuntu Server 13.04. I am at a point where it is asking what I would like to install. What is the difference between Kubuntu Active and kubuntu desktop [22:58] when you close a window it is not in the ram anymore [22:59] it only loads stuf your using [22:59] otherwise it will be slower [22:59] cheese: last time now: do you have a specific ubuntu support issue? if not please use the #ubuntu-offtopic for chat [22:59] ok thanks [22:59] So I just updated to 13.04 on a server install and it still prompts me: "New release '13.04' available. Anyone have an idea why? [23:00] jordan__: ive done installation by floppy before, you basically only boot the kernel from floppy, then bootstrap the installation with debootstrap === a111 is now known as x420_xX360Xx_420 [23:00] zutme: what does "lsb_release -r" give you? [23:00] and everything comes over the network [23:00] deadlyninja: thanks, will look into trying this [23:00] k1l, Release: 13.04 [23:00] jordan__: it sort of helps to be familiar with command line linux though [23:01] ok, im not really sure what to do about this error. [23:01] anyone know why 13.04 running in virtualbox is using chromium as a gl provider instead of mesa? [23:01] Im use to such issues being rooted to a core system faulire. Everything i run appear to crash with a segment fault [23:02] or how i can change it back to mesa? im getting shader compile errors in 13.04 that do not occur in 12.10 [23:03] I have 4 hard drives configured with hardware raid, how do I test that all 4 of them are in working order with command line tools? :0 [23:04] deadlyninja, gl provider? [23:04] hello ..

[23:06] wilee-nilee: when i type glxinfo it shows up as "1.3 Chromium" instead of "sgi mesa" [23:07] Following the upgrade to Raring, from Quantal, I've noticed the system tray icons for programs like Skype no longer appear in the top bar, near the clock and app-indicators. [23:07] It's my understanding that the system tray has been deprecated, and the onus is on the vendor to update this; but has anyone to found a way to make the Skype tray icon appear in 13.04? [23:07] \\Mr_C\\-Z VBNM [23:08] I just upgraded my system to Ubuntu 13 and Nautilus is lags when closing, after clicking the close button it closes 3-5 seconds after. Is that normal? [23:09] I have this "ghost" panel on top of the screen when playing movies in full screen. I'm on 13.04. I did not have this on previous versions. See here: http://bit.ly/17YVWBo [23:10] Other than when I open nautilus it takes 5 seconds to respond to my clicks, only first time when I open it. [23:11] the "ghost" panel is only displayed while using totem player, or? [23:14] ceed^, it is an known problem. it will be fixed soon [23:14] Hello [23:15] please what is the maximum mermory size to use ubuntu in vmware [23:16] Antar, "maximum memory size"? [23:16] Antar, maximum or you mean minimum? i'll recommend to give it at least 1.5GB, or if you can >=2GB === echevemaster_ is now known as echevemaster [23:16] kostkon, thanks ok! [23:16] Antar, it depends of how much ram you have available [23:17] 4gb if its 32bit [23:17] kostkon: Is it know that it's only on Intel graphics? I have a laptop with nvidia graphics which doesn't have this problem. [23:17] 1gb [23:18] ceed^, no clue. i assume there is already a bug report for it [23:19] anyone downloaded to 13.04 yet [23:20] geektech713: Yeah, the install from Update Manager went perfectly :) [23:20] is it worth the Download? [23:20] i have it on VMware [23:20] i have 1 gb in my computer [23:20] or ram or CPU? [23:20] can i run ubuntu into vmware [23:21] ya takes less than gig to load it [23:21] Hello Ubuntu! =) [23:21] how to remap keyboard letters? [23:21] I upgraded my 12.10 on VMware ESXi just fine to 13.04, I had a myseterious hard crash, but I later discovered VMware had reset it because VMtools hadn't gotten a heartbeat [23:21] Antar, not very well with that memeory what is the hodt? [23:21] geektech713: I found it more responsive on my laptop (core i5), but felt a negligible speed difference on my desktop (core2duo). In VMware, I can't say [23:21] Antar: Yes, but it won't be pleasant. LUbuntu would be a better choice. [23:21] I would like to set some character to alt gr + D [23:22] Jordan_U what do you mean [23:22] can i run ubuntu by this memory [23:22] Antar, you mean run ubuntu in a vm on your computer that has only 1GB of ram? [23:22] exactly [23:22] anyone know how to fix ubuntu from freaking out after I accidentally unplugged my iphone before unmounting it? [23:23] ya i was confused by the statement too u mean in VMware or actual hardware [23:23] Antar: It also depends on what host OS you're using, and how much RAM it needs. Assuming a 50/50 split between host and VM, you're going to have only 512 MiB of RAM for each OS, most modern OS's won't run well (if at all) with only 512 MiB or RAM. Lubuntu will, if your host OS can handle only having 512 MiB of RAM. [23:23] Antar: you may want to investigate zram [23:23] Jordan_U, with 1GB, both the host and the guest will struggle [23:23] i have windows xp [23:23] a lot [23:23] u still on XP Antar? [23:24] yes [23:24] i was quessing lol [23:24] kostkon: That was my point :) [23:24] guessing [23:24] Jordan_U, yes indeed :P [23:24] damn XP losing support from microsoft next year [23:24] hhhh [23:24] ok i am using xp [23:25] I already played with Windows 8 [23:25] it was ok [23:25] yes [23:25] i tryed it [23:25] Im use to such issues being rooted to a core system faulire. Everything i run appear to crash with a segment fault [23:25] once you figure it out is fas [23:25] ok, im not really sure what to do about this error. [23:25] Antar: Try it, but use Lubuntu rather than Ubuntu with GNOME/Unity. You will probably not be happy with the performance of either XP or Lubuntu when you're giving each only 512 MiB of RAM, but it can't hurt to try :) [23:25] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5602644 [23:26] Jordan_U i tryed ubuntu it works for me [23:26] but it freeze [23:27] hello there [23:27] i have some problem with wine on Ubuntu 12.04 [23:28] i know that there is #winehq but nobody answer to me in that channel [23:28] Antar: When did it freeze? Also, I don't consider it "working" if it freezes :) [23:29] sorry for my english jordan [23:29] Antar: no problem ;D [23:29] ok Great [23:30] Jordan_U: sorry for Antar's english [23:30] so is 8gb enough in harddrive in vm [23:30] aaaw crap NOTHING works on this RARING: not even the tty [23:31] Hello [23:31] Antar: Yes, that is more than enough for a default installation. Of course how much disk space you need is highly dependant on what you do and how many large files you want to store in the Ubuntu VM. === xubuntu is now known as Guest99096 [23:32] asdasd, did you have your comp configured to auto-mount a USB drive at any point? [23:32] ok [23:32] so the problem is on th ram [23:32] Random acceses memory :) [23:33] please tell me i don't have to jump through hoops to get vnc server to start on startup [23:33] startup= boot [23:34] I want to get rid of windows [23:34] you know jordan [23:34] litropy: not explicitely i was running raring from a usb pen drive with "nomodeset" and "toram" installed the nvidia-current and Xorg crashed. i couldnt even revive it from tty because my usb keyboard input got BADLY scrambled [23:34] I used it illegally [23:34] asdasd, ah, okay.

Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. [23:45] YaSiN, i don't use goolge just DuckDuckGo much better [23:45] why has google it [23:45] nerder, a fast answer is usually not a good answer. That is why I strongly recommend forums and mailing lists if the problem is complex. [23:45] KurtKraut, i'm joking dnt worry ;) [23:45] gustav, is it not working at all (no image) or it is not is not using 3D acceleration? [23:45] hm.. im banned from "ubuntu-offtopic".

[23:53] ubuntu isn't recognizing my iphone [23:53] figure8car: There's no Haskell package [23:53] so I guess I picked a good week to install ubuntu, lol [23:53] it only barely recognizes my Galaxy s3 [23:53] Was there in previous release? I know only QT, not Haskell [23:54] figure8car: in previous versions of ubuntu, have a haskell-platform package... but in 13.04 no :( [23:54] gustav, i read about Optimus/bumblebee, see >> http://www.webupd8.org/2013/04/7-things-to-do-after-installing-ubuntu.html [23:54] after part 4 [23:54] !info haskell-platform [23:54] Package haskell-platform does not exist in raring [23:54] !info haskell-platform lucid [23:54] Package haskell-platform does not exist in lucid [23:54] THATS IT! HASKELL IS DEAD [23:55] rribeiro, did you check if the package named changed? http://packages.ubuntu.com is an easy way of checking that. [23:55] and for this linux noob...haskell would be?? [23:55] !find haskel [23:55] Found: ghc, ghc-doc, ghc-prof, haskell-debian-utils, haskell-devscripts, haskell-doc, haskell-mode, haskell98-report, haskell98-tutorial, haskelldb-doc (and 62 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=haskel&searchon=names&suite=raring§ion=all [23:55] KurtKraut: I'check [23:56] Kilroyy, it is a program language > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Teams/UncommonProgrammingLanguages/Haskell [23:56] ah ok [23:57] like I said , I'm a total linux noob. just installed last week [23:57] Kilroyy, hang in here, you will have plenty to read [23:57] Kilroyy, This is not a 12 step meeting, lol. [23:57] Is there any news of what's new in 13.04 ? [23:58] I've figured out a lot on my own already, by either googling questions or searching forums [23:58] omgubuntu [23:58] figure8car, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/i386/haskell-platform seems they're waiting until haskell-platform for GHC 7.6 [23:58] question: Installed Ubuntu 12.10 on machine with Win8 OEM preinstalled, in efi mode, secure boot enabled. After install, Windows 8 does not boot. If I repair Windows 8 then grub goes away. Running boot-repair completely destroys Windows 8 and it needs to be system-restored from restore partition. Any hints? Is there any way to magically disable efi/secure boot in Windows 8 so it's all back to how it used to be before without reinstalling it? === KurtKraut is now known as kurtkraut [23:59] Like always with nVidia, there are instructions, and they look like they would work, but they don't. [23:59] my windows startup files got corrupt and I don't have a backup cd so I installed ubuntu rather than having a laptop that was totally useless, lol [23:59] gustav yes there are issues. [23:59] reduz, Not many are up on uefi here I have yet to see any good detailed help here, however the ubuntu forums does have user focused on it.
