| nickgzzjr | Hi can someone help me figure out why my ubuntu is not picking up any video camera in /dev/video0 ? | 00:15 |
| jcrza | Just got a message on my ubuntu box | 00:15 |
| jcrza | If I run a postgre server and some python scripts should I have any trouble with upgrading? | 00:15 |
| wilee-nilee | the_drow, Sorry I had to make a store run, how long did the first upgrade take, and how many packages are being shown loaded now? | 00:16 |
| wilee-nilee | downloaded* | 00:16 |
| the_drow | wilee-nilee: it was 300 MB | 00:16 |

| silverex | Yo, so I just upgraded to 12.10 from 12.04. Problem is that now when I start up my computer, the resolution is off and there's no dash or menu bar. After a couple of minutes a box comes up saying that compiz has crashed. How could I fix this? | 00:17 |
| wilee-nilee | the_drow, were you fully updated the first time you hit the upgrade, could it have been you hit the button at the bottom rather then the top? | 00:18 |
| the_drow | nickgzzjr: got the drivers? | 00:18 |
| basiclas_ | are there any lists of ubuntu friendly laptops? :) i need a new laptop | 00:18 |
| nickgzzjr | the_drow im not sure how can I check? | 00:18 |
| jcrza | I really want to upgrade to 13.04. Is it ... safe yet? | 00:18 |
| the_drow | wilee-nilee: maybe I haven't noticed... Idk. On the other hand the wireless card driver stopped working and I had to reinstall it | 00:19 |
| the_drow | nickgzzjr: did it work before? | 00:19 |
| nickgzzjr | the_drow: No, not with this image, its a custom ubuntu build, for a arm board. | 00:19 |
| Blue11 | having an issue with xubuntu 12.10 not all the indicator icons show up in the taskbar and there is no way to add them. speaker icon and battery indcator. | 00:19 |
| wilee-nilee | basiclas_, Here is a list, many that will run are not listed is all, knowing the hardware of what you want to purchase might be better way. http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/ | 00:20 |
| the_drow | nickgzzjr: then the drivers might not exist | 00:20 |
| bmomjian | basiclas_: Lenovo is usually good with Ubuntu | 00:20 |
| nickgzzjr | the_drow: well I have another image that some guy online made and it works there. How can I add the drivers | 00:20 |
| nickgzzjr | ? | 00:20 |
| wilee-nilee | the_drow, Sounds like there was a glitch somewhere a upgrade that runs and finishes and is rebooted to be the same is like very strange. | 00:21 |
| the_drow | nickgzzjr: google them up first. I don't know what kind of camera you are using | 00:21 |
| Blue11 | dang logged me out -- anyway xubuntu does not show speaker or battery icon in the task bar. I cant right click and add them. suggestions? | 00:21 |

I can't seem to figure out the right set of xrandr commands to make it work… The bigger problem may be that I can't figure out where I should actually put the resolution modification commands, since there's no more xorg.conf.

| Brotox | hi guys, i've deployed my rails app in heroku, but when i update my code locally and do git push master, nothing get modified ?! | 00:52 |
| pztrick | git push origin master? | 00:53 |
| Jordan_U | Brotox: Did you actually git add and git commit? | 00:53 |
| Brotox | Jordan_U, do i've to do that each time ? i'm still a git newbie :$ | 00:54 |
| jamie_ | hey guys just wanted to ask a simple question - what DE/ GUI is closest to windows? I'm trying out Xubuntu atm.. | 00:55 |
| wilee-nilee | wolftune, Have you run a update to make sure it is not a partial upgrade? | 00:55 |
| Brotox | jamie_, try cinnamon | 00:55 |
| wolftune | wilee-nilee: yes | 00:56 |
| jamie_ | ah, looks nice, thanks! | 00:56 |
| wolftune | here's the errors: http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/paste/gs88r | 00:56 |
| wilee-nilee | wolftune, Can you post the errors in a pastebin? | 00:56 |
| Jordan_U | Brotox: Yes. | 01:03 |
| wilee-nilee | wolftune, On line I'm seeing some bugs and notations on microcode_amd, I don't really have a definitive answer for you, lothers might though. | 01:04 |
| hellpe | hello | 01:06 |
| Brotox | Jordan_U, i cloned a github repo, added my stuff and modified, deployed to heroku. | 01:06 |
| Brotox | the output of those commands are : Please make sure you have the correct access rights | 01:06 |
| Brotox | fatal: Could not read from remote repository. | 01:07 |
| hellpe | I think my EeePC 1015e is overheating, it is at 75°C and rising | 01:07 |
| hellpe | according to xfce4-sensors | 01:07 |
| Guest53752 | hi, #On Ubuntu 12.10 xfce, I am trying to find the code to remove unusable choices from my log-in menu. Like 1.) cairo-dock which is not a desktop choice; 2.) Gnome Openbox and/or; 3.) Openbox which I do not want anyone to play with, and especially how to hide until I can purge; 4.) Lubuntu ; 5.) Lubuntu Netbook without wounding my xfce that has a month of personalizing, cairo-docking and my tender care put into it. I am | 01:07 |
| Guest53752 | hoping not to have to run a new ¨mini.iso¨ and start over. Any ideas out there? | 01:07 |
| hellpe | I'm worried it could cause hardware damages | 01:07 |
| somsip | Brotox: when you clone a github repo, the origin will be the github repo and you probably cannot push to that. So you may need to fork the repo, then work on your forked copy. But then, I have no idea about Heroku | 01:08 |
| MestreLion | where are nautilus thumbnailers defined? I noticed it isn't generating thumbnails for XPM files | 01:08 |
| Brotox | somsip, hmmm | 01:08 |
| wolftune | wilee-nilee: thanks for the help. Does this mean just wait and someone is probably addressing this? | 01:08 |
| hellpe | is there something I can do to prevent this ? | 01:08 |
| hellpe | I'm using Xubuntu Raring | 01:09 |
| wilee-nilee | wolftune, You might try sudo apt-get install -f the sudo apt-get clean then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 01:09 |
| wilee-nilee | then* | 01:09 |
| somsip | Brotox: or add a new remote repo which is the Heroku deployment point thing, and push to that | 01:11 |
| Brotox | somsip, heroku has nothing to do with GitHub itself ! | 01:12 |
| Brotox | you push your code up to heroku, it does the rest. | 01:12 |
| somsip | Brotox: oh, I thought the idea was you pushed directly to Heroku. But like I say, I know nothing about Heroku. | 01:12 |
| wolftune | wilee-nilee: thanks, but still got the same error | 01:13 |
| Brotox | somsip, nah, i've cloned that locally, i deployed to heroku, then did some changes locally, and now i need to update the deployed app at heroku | 01:14 |
| fjodor | hi which software does ubuntu use to automate adding external monitors? | 01:15 |
| somsip | Brotox: this is way off topic. But I believe you would need to add the Heroku deployment point as a new remote repo and push to that. But you are better off looking into this elsewhere | 01:15 |
| Dr_willis | Guest53752, the *dm login screens have sessions they show defined by the vvarious *.desktop files. for example there should be a 'gnome.desktop' and a 'open.desktop' file you can move to some other location. restart lightdm. and they wont be shown | 01:15 |
| wilee-nilee | wolftune, Did you get any errors besides the same at the end. For example held packages....etc? | 01:15 |
| Dr_willis | Guest53752, try 'locate gnome.desktop' to find the location. somewhere in /etc/ i recall | 01:16 |
| wolftune | wilee-nilee: yes, there was a held package error at the very beginning after the -f command | 01:16 |
| betrayd | fjodor theres different ways unfortunately, depending onthe video card in question | 01:17 |
| wolftune | wilee-nilee: well, looking back it just said that 1 was not upgraded | 01:17 |
| fjodor | betrayd: intel | 01:17 |
| fjodor | betrayd: i am using lubuntu and the apps just suck, i just want to use the automated thing that ubuntu uses | 01:18 |
| wilee-nilee | wolftune, Is te terminal open with all that, if so pastebin all of it. | 01:18 |
| Dr_willis | fjodor, what you mean automated thing? | 01:18 |
| fjodor | Dr_willis: when i pull the plug it deactivates the external monitor automatically and activates it when i plug it in | 01:19 |
| Dr_willis | fjodor, i cant say ive noticed that depending on the desktop. but it could be ive only dont it in Unity and Gnome-shell. I thought Udev handled it. | 01:20 |
| fjodor | with lubuntu the external monitor is still active and there might be windows or somehting... | 01:20 |
| Dr_willis | got a tv i sometimes plugin. Noticed it gets auto configured in unity. and gnome-shell. Not sure if ive ever tried it in lubuntu, or kubuntu. | 01:21 |
| Dr_willis | i think its controllable via the xrandr tools also. so if you do that a lot. you could set up some script/icon to disable the 2nd monitor | 01:21 |
| fjodor | Dr_willis: with lubuntu you've got to run a program like arandr, grandr or lxrandr(lxde) | 01:22 |
| wilee-nilee | wolftune, I suspect the package held for upgrade is just missing dependencies that may show up within a day or so. | 01:22 |
| Nothing_Much | I have to launch skype from a terminal because of NVIDIA drivers, can somebody help? | 01:22 |

| Dr_willis | Nothing_Much, help with what? why do you need to launch it from a terminal due to video drivers? | 01:22 |

| carrera | Greetings! :) | 01:23 |

| sync350 | Nothing_Much, www.webupd8.org/2013/04/fix-skype-not-working-in-ubuntu-1304.html. Let me know if this helps. | 01:24 |
| Dr_willis | Nothing_Much, make a script that does that.. or put that line in your .bashrc or .profile | 01:24 |
| fjodor | betrayd: no if i deactivate the extra monitor with lxpanel, openbox puts all windows on first monitor like ubuntu does automatically | 01:24 |

| Nothing_Much | Would you like semi-bleeding edge (more current) software or would you rather have stable software? | 01:28 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, clamav is in the repos for scanning for windows viruses. theres other av apps out for linux also | 01:28 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, you are meaning to scan a external usb with windows files for window viruses? | 01:28 |
| oldbreed | Yessir | 01:29 |

| bd___ | sync350: takes time ehehe | 01:30 |
| Dr_willis | !nomodeset | 01:30 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 01:30 |
| MestreLion | where are nautilus thumbnailers defined? I noticed it isn't generating thumbnails for XPM files.. I cn see some thumbnailers defined in /usr/share/thumbnailers for PDF, EXE, videos... but not for images. Where is that set? | 01:30 |
| phantomcircuit | like if i walked into an apple store today and tried to install ubuntu how much would it suck? | 01:30 |
| oldbreed | Dr_willis: clamav is cl based, correct? how do i run it and specify what it's scanning? | 01:30 |
| Nothing_Much | bd___ Technically everything's stable, the most current 13.04 just has newer software. 12.04 has older software, but gets support for 5 years (4 years left) | 01:30 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, it has a cli and a gui.. and you should read its docs.. it has options you tell it. | 01:30 |
| bd___ | Nothing_Much: what is the one you use? | 01:31 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, its best to use several differnt av apps to scan files. just in case you get false positives, or missed hits | 01:31 |
| Nothing_Much | I use 13.04, it's amazing | 01:31 |
| jram0421 | i installed ubuntu 13.04 64 bit alongside windows 8 and it has no option to boot into ubuntu | 01:31 |
| oldbreed | What others can you suggest, Dr_willis? | 01:31 |
| bd___ | Nothing_Much: with the unity desktop? Can you describe why do you think it is amazing? Have you used the lts before? | 01:32 |
| Nothing_Much | But after 6 or 9 months (6 months is when the next release comes out, 9 months is when the release is eol'd), you have to upgrade to the next release if you're willing to do that. | 01:32 |
| bd___ | Nothing_Much: is it hard to do upgrade? | 01:32 |
| jram0421 | « !ops » | 01:33 |
| Nothing_Much | bd___, Unity is much faster and has improved drastically since LTS. I used 12.04 and it's pretty good, but I went to use 13.04 when it was in beta and was blown away. | 01:33 |
| OerHeks | oldbreed, follow this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ClamAV | 01:33 |
| Nothing_Much | To upgrade Ubuntu, you just type in the terminal "sudo do-release-upgrade" | 01:33 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, no idea. i dont really use them any more. I recall there being clamav and avg had one.. and i recall 2 others | 01:33 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, some of the av companies had their own linux live cds for scanning systems i recall Avast perhaps had one | 01:34 |
| bd___ | Nothing_Much: Do you use a File Manager other than the new Nautilus in 13.04? | 01:35 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, clamav worked.. but i dont think it had the best % rate of finding viruses. | 01:35 |
| Nothing_Much | I use everything stock that comes in 13.04, Nautilus is a bit different but I got used to it | 01:35 |

| Dr_willis | oldbreed, No idea. ive not used avast in a year+ | 01:38 |
| Nothing_Much | Ah | 01:38 |
| Dr_willis | !av | 01:38 |
| ubottu | Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux. except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 01:38 |
| bd___ | Nothing_Much: what is with HDMI? | 01:38 |
| Nothing_Much | Yeah, that bug doesn't affect me because I'm using a 2007-2008 build | 01:38 |
| Nothing_Much | bd___ what tt said, if you have HDMI audio then you're gonna have to use headphones and wait for a fix on the kernel | 01:39 |
| tt | uh | 01:40 |
| tt | headphones don't help if you don't have analog audio out | 01:40 |

| bd___ | Toph2: you are late :) | 01:43 |
| Dr_willis | if you are doing a clean install. id say go with 13.04 | 01:44 |
| Toph2 | hehe,, my next question was like yours,, is it worth updating? | 01:44 |
| Dr_willis | if you got 12.04 working fine.. then you might not need all the little fixs | 01:44 |
| tilde | Hello, does anyone know whether the bootloader goes in the EFI partition? (I am manually setting up partitions). | 01:44 |
| bd___ | Dr_willis: Is it true that upgrades are not reliable, that you can get no desktop at all after upgrades? | 01:44 |
| Dr_willis | bd___, i upgraded fine. many others have as well | 01:44 |
| Dr_willis | but i rarely upgrade. I tend to do clean installs. | 01:44 |
| bd___ | Dr_willis: Do you use ppas? | 01:45 |
| Dr_willis | bd___, yes i use several ppas for stuffs | 01:45 |
| savagecroc | hey i'm doing rsync | 01:45 |
| OerHeks | make sure you have the iso on usb/cd before upgrading | 01:45 |
| bd___ | Toph2: I would say most people here agree that it is a very good release, so yes if you are on 12.10 upgrade :) | 01:45 |
| turova | no one here had to deal with any resolution issues because of optimus? | 01:45 |
| savagecroc | and i keep getting rsync: failed to set times on "/source/bla/bla | 01:45 |
| Dr_willis | 12.10 to 13.04 is more of a 'polishing/cleanup' type improvement | 01:45 |
| bd___ | Dr_willis: which ones do you think are "mandatory" for every ubuntu user? xD | 01:45 |
| Toph2 | bd___,,, i didn't do 12.10,, i stayed with 12.04 | 01:46 |
| savagecroc | i don't want rsync to have write permissions to the source directory | 01:46 |
| chickenmonger | I've upgraded two laptops from 12.10 to 13.04 already with no problems. | 01:46 |
| savagecroc | is there anyway around this? | 01:46 |
| Dr_willis | bd___, never really noticed. I just add some if i see an app i want to try | 01:46 |
| OerHeks | turova yes, i read lots of issues | 01:46 |
| joaquin | is this the right place to ask question about my journey into the Ubuntu Dev? | 01:46 |
| bd___ | Dr_willis: like libreoffice ppa? | 01:46 |
| Dr_willis | bd___, i tend to uninstall libreoffice ;P i rarely do word pcoressing | 01:46 |
| Morph4me | tilde: when partitioning manually ....the bootloader must go at the beginning for EFI ....mine is 100mb ....mount point i typed ...boot/efi ... | 01:46 |
| Dr_willis | i tend to do very little real 'work' on my computers ;P | 01:47 |
| bd___ | Toph2: Thats tough. If you want you can upgrade to 12.10 then 13.04 | 01:47 |
| bd___ | Or fresh install of 13.04 | 01:47 |
| bd___ | But if you have a lot of configuration done already maybe stay with the lts would be better. Depends on what you want Toph2 | 01:47 |
| Toph2 | bd___,,, i have had bad luck with upgrades,, i will do a fresh install | 01:48 |
| tilde | Morphe4me: if I am dualbooting with windows 8, is it still boot/efi, or something else? I don't want to overwrite the windows boot manager, | 01:48 |
| turova | OerHeks: My 13.04 install won't run at 1920x1080 and I can't figure out how to make that happen on my XPS17 (l702x). I've tried to run some commands with xrandr but haven't figured out how to actually make it change the resolution. Farthest I've gotten is seeing something like "cannot set resolution to size bigger than virtual display". I think I just need to set up the xrandr stuff early in the boot process, but I can't figure out where | 01:48 |
| turova | since there's no more xorg.conf | 01:48 |
| tilde | oops, I meant Morph4me | 01:49 |
| bd___ | Toph2: Remember that you will have to upgrade in 9 months if you install 13.04 | 01:49 |
| Morph4me | tilde: i don't have it with Win8 BUT this is how i manually set it with ubuntu 13 .04 http://i.imgur.com/J6oOa7P.png | 01:49 |
| codezombie | bah, this is driving me nuts. df says I'm using 8GB of storage, but I cannot find it anywhere. | 01:51 |
| tilde | Morph4me: okay, thanks. I'm just a little worried about overwriting the windows boot manager. If I do accidently overwrite it, is there a way to fix it? (using boot repair or something?) | 01:51 |
| bean | codezombie, thats pretty easy to figure out. du -sh /* | 01:52 |
| bean | and then drill down | 01:52 |
| gandalfcome | Hey, I've got too teach some undergrads the command line and I'm looking for a nice online interactive command line tutorial. Any recommendations? | 01:52 |
| Dr_willis | codezombie, seen log files get huge due to bugs. ;) | 01:52 |
| codezombie | bean: see my above gist... I did, and du -sh /* shows 1.1gb | 01:52 |
| bean | codezombie, have you tyied rebooting then? | 01:52 |
| codezombie | Dr_willis: not running any services | 01:52 |
| codezombie | bean: ys | 01:52 |
| codezombie | yes | 01:53 |
| Morph4me | tidle: you are doing it in the right order ,but i haven't went there yet :) | 01:53 |
| Dr_willis | codezombie, you have checked /var/log and your users home for Xorg log files? | 01:53 |
| codezombie | Dr_willis; https://gist.github.com/gitt/4af5cdddfff0f811f173 | 01:53 |
| tilde | Morph4me: wait what? doing what in the right order? | 01:53 |
| Dr_willis | so df and du are showing differnt stuff. Hmm not sure about hat | 01:54 |
| Morph4me | tilde : windows first because it would wipe ubuntu(s) bootloader | 01:54 |
| codezombie | Dr_willis: yea, this is driving me nuts. | 01:55 |
| tilde | Morph4me: ah, I see. Well thanks for your help! | 01:56 |
| Morph4me | good luck tilde | 01:56 |
| Dr_willis | codezombie, could it it be somthing as odd as one app counting soft (or hard) links differntly? | 02:00 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: try looking in lsof output | 02:00 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: what would I be looking for htere? | 02:01 |
| carajo | hello! | 02:01 |
| johnjohn1011 | i cloned my 160 GB drive to a new 2tb drive. I was looking to bump up my 154 gb partition to use most of the drive. I saw that the swap is inside an extended partition. does this need to be the case? | 02:01 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: you could possibly have a file which has a fd open and hasn't been deleted in which case you would be looking for something with the string (deleted) | 02:01 |
| codezombie | Dr_willis: df uses the fs usage. I would think it should be accurate. This is a clean install, no idea why this is wrong. | 02:01 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: it would also mean the space is counted from whatever fd is still open - | 02:01 |
| === jack is now known as Guest8461 | ||
| codezombie | SolarisBoy; nothing like that in the list :/ | 02:02 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: ok - well good to log these things - codezombie how big is this disk? | 02:03 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: and is the issue that your trying to find space that df is reporting as used somewhere? | 02:03 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: yes, df says I'm using 8GB, du shows 1.2GB. This is a clean ubuntu server 12.04 install, so I shouldn't be using anything more than the minimal space required. | 02:04 |
| carajo | hello guys if I have a machine with 2 cores and 2 threads (2.5ghz) what is the meaning when I run gnome-system-monitor and one thread (i supposed) reach the 100%? | 02:04 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: https://gist.github.com/gitt/4af5cdddfff0f811f173 | 02:04 |
| xub69 | I mounted /proc into a chroot and when I ran ncdu it told me I had a 128TB drive, why doesn't everyone do this space saving trick? | 02:04 |
| carajo | what is the clock frecuency that my machine is working to? | 02:05 |
| Jordan_U | codezombie: Try running an fsck. | 02:06 |
| Jordan_U | !fsck | codezombie | 02:06 |
| ubottu | codezombie: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 02:06 |
| codezombie | Jordan_U: yeah, I've done that. Thanks. | 02:06 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: ok - can you try this - | 02:07 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: du -s -h / and compare that output to df -h | 02:07 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: 1.2GB | 02:07 |
| carajo | hello guys if I have a machine with 2 cores and 2 | 02:08 |
| carajo | 338 | threads (2.5ghz) what is the meaning when I run | 02:08 |
| carajo | 339 | gnome-system-monitor and one thread (i supposed) | 02:08 |
| carajo | 340 | reach the 100%? | 02:08 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: can you post that? | 02:08 |
| carajo | please | 02:08 |
| codezombie | root@mini:~# du -s -h / | 02:09 |
| codezombie | 1.2G/ | 02:09 |
| Dr_willis | one core is at 100% ussage i belive carajo | 02:09 |
| Dr_willis | carajo, htop may give better info | 02:09 |
| carajo | Dr_willis it remains showing 4 "threads" | 02:10 |
| Dr_willis | 2 cores each has hyperthreading perhaps | 02:11 |
| carajo | but it does what you have supposed, what it means that the 4 theads have reached 100%? | 02:12 |
| carajo | Dr_willis yeah it is an intel core | 02:13 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: what's interesting, is that it doesn't seem to ever go below 8GB | 02:13 |
| codezombie | no matter what I remove | 02:13 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: it could be open files as stated | 02:14 |
| SolarisBoy | not neccessarily just deleted ones - does it persist reboots? | 02:14 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: open from what? nothing has been installed, except the OS. I've also rebooted, negating anything that would be open. | 02:14 |
| Jordan_U | codezombie: Does usage increase if you add files? | 02:14 |
| codezombie | Jordan_U: yes | 02:15 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: nothing needs to be installed - all running procs have open FD's in some form or manner | 02:15 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: even just the ones that are installed in the base deployment - more so than new apps/things - whats your uptime like? | 02:15 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: right, but out of dozens of server installs this is the first I've ever seen of this. | 02:15 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: ^ | 02:15 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: clean install on a new box today | 02:16 |
| carajo | really i dont understand | 02:16 |
| codezombie | so uptime is zero pretty much | 02:16 |
| Dr_willis | carajo, ive seen some tools say 100% when one thread (one part of one core) is running at 100%>. if all 4 were running full speed.. ive seen it say %400 it depends on the monitoring tool | 02:16 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: whats the install method? (is it scripted, preseed? etc? in general the same on all?) | 02:16 |
| ceed^ | How can I remove that mail notification envelope thing from the notification area? | 02:16 |
| Dr_willis | carajo, you may want to ask in #hardware | 02:17 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: I manually walk through the server installer from disk. | 02:17 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: The only software selected at install time is OpenSSH Server | 02:17 |
| codezombie | same for every install | 02:17 |
| carajo | hey dr Dr_willis thank you i go there | 02:18 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: can you post to pastebin output for fdisk -l (under sudo)? | 02:18 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: did you run that lsof under sudo? | 02:18 |
| SolarisBoy | so human error is a possibility also | 02:19 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: https://gist.github.com/gitt/98b808a8d53da8979bf3 | 02:19 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: I've done the install on this box three time to rule out any possible pebkac | 02:19 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: =) i understand it felt the same each time... | 02:20 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: can you post sudo parted -l? | 02:20 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: https://gist.github.com/gitt/98b808a8d53da8979bf3 | 02:20 |
| SolarisBoy | i used preseed and pxe for multi server installs - thats the only way to be sure something is getting done right - | 02:20 |
| SolarisBoy | checking | 02:21 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: I disagree with that statement | 02:21 |
| SolarisBoy | thats ok - | 02:21 |
| nxt_ | hi | 02:21 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: the issue is the partition starts 99.6MB into the disk | 02:21 |
| SolarisBoy | 99.6MB 492GB 492GB ext4 | 02:21 |
| SolarisBoy | thats your 8gb | 02:22 |
| codezombie | I'm confused how that equates to 8gb | 02:22 |
| trism | ceed^: sudo apt-get remove indicator-messages; | 02:22 |
| dysun | Hi all. I have an nVidia Geforce 7200 GS video card. I've finally managed to get the video drivers installed, but when I go under System -> Preferences -> Appearances -> Visual affects, the option is still greyed out. Any reason why this might be? I'm stuck =( | 02:23 |
| SolarisBoy | hrmm my bad you may be right there - | 02:24 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: is there a reason you did GPT partitions on both disks? | 02:24 |

| ntzrmtthihu777 | anyone can tell me the version of ruby that comes standard with ubuntu 12.04? | 02:25 |
| bluebeat | hey, i recently update to 13.04, and im having this problem... i have a repeater at home that is most of the time disconnected, but when it is on the signal on my computer gets affected ( speed drops) how can i tell wcid to ignore the signal coming out of the repeater and only connect to the router... any ideas? | 02:25 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: an 8GB partition on the same disk | 02:26 |
| Guest24814 | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4MCX3LbwJs | 02:26 |
| bluebeat | forgot to mention that i didnt have this issue on 12.10 | 02:26 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: so sdxX where the last X - strange but seems relevant as your swap is about 8gb no? | 02:27 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: I did consider this, but as I said I've never had this issue... Swap is /dev/sda3 | 02:27 |
| SolarisBoy | where the last X is partition number* | 02:27 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: from the end of the disk | 02:27 |
| excelsiora | Is there a reason that tomboy is no longer standard on ubuntu? | 02:28 |
| Jordan_U | codezombie: http://askubuntu.com/questions/131516/new-ext4-partition-and-used-space | 02:28 |
| SolarisBoy | codezombie: interesting | 02:28 |
| thomas____ | excelsiora what ubuntu | 02:29 |
| SolarisBoy | yea there is over head but 8GB seems extreme | 02:29 |
| Dr_willis | excelsiora, i think it was disliked for several reasons., was no longer getting developed, and had some other issues.. i used it for a long time. | 02:29 |
| SolarisBoy | =( - | 02:29 |
| savagecroc | how do you run sudo but keep all the current environment variables? | 02:30 |
| wolftune | wilee-nilee: sorry, I think I forgot to do this: http://kxstudio.sourceforge.net/paste/Ro4Nf | 02:30 |
| Dr_willis | http://askubuntu.com/questions/96965/tomboy-alternatives | 02:30 |
| codezombie | Jordan_U: ah, that definitely makes sense | 02:30 |
| thomas____ | I must've added Tomboy on my own, can't remember, have no problems with it on 12.04, but don't use it all that much, just sayin' | 02:30 |
| SolarisBoy | savagecroc: try -E | 02:30 |
| Dr_willis | savagecroc, i recall sudo -i and sudo -s, one of those did that. but i can never rember which one | 02:30 |
| savagecroc | thanks :) | 02:30 |
| codezombie | SolarisBoy: based on that, 8GB would still be less than 2% overhead. | 02:31 |
| Jordan_U | savagecroc: Do you really want to keep *all* environment variables (generally not considered safe) or just some specifica variable(s)? | 02:31 |
| Dr_willis | i used tomboy a lot - because ubuntu one had the feature to view/sync your notes. but that aparently wasent used much. ;( so its been phased out | 02:31 |
| SolarisBoy | i don't have that much overhead on my larger disks.. | 02:31 |
| SolarisBoy | which is what i was basing that on - | 02:31 |
| bolly | hi | 02:32 |
| savagecroc | Jordan_U: hmm i really just want it to be able to use the SSH keys to logon to the remote machine | 02:32 |
| thomas____ | I must be behind the curve on syncing stuff Dr Willis perhaps you could clue me in on how valuable that is..??? | 02:32 |
| bolly | im trying to debootstrap quantul armel but its failing o Couldn't download dists/quantal/main/binary-armel/Packages | 02:32 |
| savagecroc | sudo -E did the trick | 02:32 |
| bolly | any idea? | 02:32 |
| savagecroc | sudo -i didn't seem to work | 02:32 |
| Jordan_U | savagecroc: What is your end goal? Running ssh with sudo doesn't make much sense to me. | 02:32 |
| SolarisBoy | -i interactive -s shell | 02:32 |
| savagecroc | ah right :) | 02:33 |
| savagecroc | -E = keep the environment variables | 02:33 |
| SolarisBoy | yeps | 02:33 |
| Dr_willis | thomas____, all my notes across all machines got synced because they were saved to ubuntu one, so i could even access them from any web browser. | 02:33 |
| Dr_willis | thomas____, but its a gone feature.. | 02:33 |
| Dr_willis | Be nice if they added some config sync features to work with ubuntu one. make ubuntu stand out a bit more. | 02:34 |
| Dr_willis | Uubntu One just seems a bit of a afterthought these days | 02:34 |
| SolarisBoy | i like it | 02:35 |
| SolarisBoy | they fixed a lot of crap with it - because boy was it broken pre 12.04 | 02:35 |
| Dr_willis | i got so many cloud storage accounts.. its scary. ;) | 02:35 |
| thomas____ | I dunno....DR are you saying Ubunto One no longer has a sync feature...how to private message here also I am new on ifc | 02:35 |
| bluebeat | hey, i recently update to 13.04, and im having this problem... i have a repeater at home that is most of the time disconnected, but when it is on the signal on my computer gets affected ( speed drops) how can i tell wcid to ignore the signal coming out of the repeater and only connect to the router... any ideas? | 02:35 |
| Dr_willis | and the all seem to want me to auto-upload my android phone photos to them. | 02:35 |
| SolarisBoy | well thats why i like it because its there by default =) | 02:35 |
| SolarisBoy | hahaha Dr_willis | 02:36 |
| Dr_willis | thomas____, ubuntu one no longer has the tomboy sync feature it had a few years back. (2 yr?) | 02:36 |
| l_r | hello | 02:36 |
| ugur | hey everybody | 02:37 |
| SolarisBoy | i kind of liked that feature (a lot) especially because i write a lot of stuff in notes and it was cool to have access to them from any ubuntu machine in a base installed app | 02:37 |
| l_r | my root disk is full | 02:37 |
| SolarisBoy | l_r: delete some files =) | 02:37 |
| l_r | SolarisBoy, it's because of a damn bug in the ext4 fs | 02:38 |
| SolarisBoy | l_r: nice | 02:38 |
| l_r | suddenly it appeared fulll | 02:38 |
| ugur | I want to ask did you like the new 13.04? I haven't upgraded from 12.10. What will I lose, what will I gain? Thanks in advance :) | 02:38 |
| l_r | i must find a solution ,fsck tells the fs is good after having fixed an inode | 02:38 |
| SolarisBoy | l_r: wow sounds bad - what bug is that? what causes it? | 02:38 |
| l_r | but the fs is still full | 02:38 |
| l_r | SolarisBoy, i don't know | 02:39 |
| SolarisBoy | l_r: post output to pastbin - | 02:39 |
| l_r | for sure it was not full when the thing happened | 02:39 |
| l_r | SolarisBoy, what output? | 02:39 |
| carrera | Greetings! :) | 02:39 |
| thomas____ | ubotto | 02:39 |
| SolarisBoy | l_r: df? du and stuff i guess | 02:39 |
| SolarisBoy | unless there is anything else you want to add there - fs errors from logs etc? | 02:40 |
| thomas____ | ubottu | 02:40 |
| thomas____ | how do you get bot help | 02:40 |
| l_r | SolarisBoy, i am on another system, since i could not even boot, and i cannot mount the partition , df reported 0 bytes free though | 02:40 |
| carrera | I'm currently running ubuntu 12.04 with RAID 0. Do ubuntu or xubuntu 13.04 dektop detect RAID? | 02:40 |
| SolarisBoy | l_r: do you know if there is reserved space? if so have you tried a recovery shell? | 02:40 |
| memphisraines | Has Nautlius' behaviour with symlinks changed from 12.10 to 13.04? | 02:41 |
| JimmyNeutron | Anyone have any problems with 13.04 where after doing a cold boot, you don't see the login screen? Doing a warm reboot(ctrl+alt+delete seems to help so far. I have Bumblebee installed. | 02:41 |
| l_r | SolarisBoy, i ran fsck in the fail-safe mode | 02:41 |
| thomas____ | what can I type in here command-wise its been a long time since I was in ifc channel | 02:41 |
| l_r | SolarisBoy, fsck wrongly reports the fs is ok | 02:41 |
| Jordan_U | carrera: RAID support hasn't changed between 12.04 and 13.04, and as the core of the OS is the same, it will be the same between all flavors of Ubunut. | 02:41 |
| SolarisBoy | l_r: did you check the space in safe mode as root? | 02:41 |
| JimmyNeutron | I have a feeling the problem I'm seeing is related to the Low Graphics resolution I encounter any previous version. | 02:41 |
| l_r | SolarisBoy, yes, 0 | 02:41 |
| SolarisBoy | l_r: can you point me a link to the bug? | 02:42 |
| SolarisBoy | l_r: there is a flag -f which will force a fsck regardless of the journal status - have you used that in the fsck command line? | 02:42 |

| oldbreed | Hey, guys, I'm tryna back up my system because I'm about to expand the partition. But the backup program is giving me this error: "Temp space has 2358272 available, backup needs approx 68157440." | 02:43 |
| b4ulook4me | Hi all... some how solved, 13.04 nvidia graphics bootup freeze | 02:43 |
| ceed^ | trism, thanks | 02:43 |
| l_r | i need to reboot to try | 02:43 |
| b4ulook4me | installed nvidia drivers and now working ok | 02:43 |
| l_r | i am on an old ubuntu | 02:43 |
| SolarisBoy | oldbreed: that means the backup is trying to either use temp space for the destination location or as a location for temp ops like compression/encription or whatever, | 02:44 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, thanks. Then why doesn't xubuntu 13.04 recognize my RAID0 partitions? It doesn't even let me create new ones. | 02:44 |
| SolarisBoy | oldbreed: if thats the destination for your backup - you may want to change it to a larger area if you don't have ability to expand that FS /tmp is on - | 02:44 |
| oldbreed | SolarisBoy: What do I do about it? I've assigned the back up to an external hard drive, so I don't think the former is the problem | 02:44 |
| thomas____ | !bot | 02:44 |

| SolarisBoy | oldbreed: check in your backup program settings and see if you can change where it does its "work" at | 02:45 |
| Jordan_U | carrera: What type of RAID is it? | 02:45 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, software RAID0. I created it with ubuntu 12.04 server. | 02:45 |
| SolarisBoy | oldbreed: and based on that size diff and the assumption that this did work at one point - maybe you have some additional unexpected large files in the source you didn't want to backup? | 02:45 |
| SolarisBoy | oldbreed: do you mount /tmp on a normal disk or something else? like memory mount etc? | 02:47 |
| oldbreed | SolarisBoy: I installed Ubuntu through Windows 7 and am attempting to delete the Windows 7 partition and expand Ubuntu into its place. I don't think I've ever backed it up before, and the issue is probably that the Windows partition is too big | 02:47 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, Toshiba Qosmio x500 laptop with 2 x 480 GB SanDisk SSD and nVidia M360 | 02:47 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, you mean you did a WUBI install inside windows? | 02:47 |
| oldbreed | SolarisBoy: I have no idea what what you just said emans | 02:47 |
| oldbreed | Yes, Dr_willis | 02:47 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, then you CANT remove windows. | 02:47 |
| SolarisBoy | ugh... | 02:47 |
| oldbreed | Wait, what? | 02:47 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, wubi installs to a file on the windows partition | 02:48 |
| oldbreed | Aw, shit | 02:48 |
| b4ulook4me | Hi Dr_Willis... | 02:48 |
| oldbreed | There's gotta be some workaround | 02:48 |
| Dr_willis | there are guides out on converting a wubi install to a normal install.. but i would backup improtnat stuff and do a clean install | 02:48 |
| SolarisBoy | oldbreed: what are you trying to do? | 02:48 |
| wilee-nilee | oldbreed, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MigrateWubi as Dr_willis mentioned | 02:49 |
| Dr_willis | Im not sure how well migrateing wubi works. ;) | 02:49 |
| SolarisBoy | sounds scary | 02:49 |
| oldbreed | What's the risk? | 02:49 |
| Dr_willis | risk - it dont work. ;) | 02:49 |
| SolarisBoy | disk obfuscation | 02:49 |
| subcool | why isnt this like working... | 02:49 |
| subcool | sudo chown -R root:admin . ## make this directory writable by the system administrators | 02:49 |
| Dr_willis | backup your wubi disk image file to some place else.. you can mount and access it from a ubuntu install | 02:49 |
| SolarisBoy | subcool: whats the error/return code if it failing? | 02:50 |
| subcool | SolarisBoy, chown: missing operand after `root:admin' | 02:50 |
| oldbreed | Dr_willis: then what precisely do I need to do. I have an external hard drive that I'm attempting to back Ubuntu up onto, but I'm met with the error before. I don't know how to resolve this | 02:50 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, what error? | 02:50 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, i just format my external to ext4 and copy my files over ;) | 02:50 |
| Jordan_U | subcool: Be very careful with chmod and chown with the -R switch, you may be changing a lot of files and thus it may be hard to reverse (as you won't know the original settings for each file). | 02:51 |
| oldbreed | Dr_willis: Temp space has 2358272 available, backup needs approx 68157440. | 02:51 |
| subcool | Jordan_U, its ok, its a kinda empy folder | 02:51 |
| subcool | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenVPN - step 3 | 02:51 |
| giupeppo | hi guys, I've just installed lubuntu 13.04 on my sony netbook but sound doesn't work.. can you help me please? (launching alsamixer it seem I've 3 different soundcards) thanks!! | 02:52 |
| oldbreed | Dr_willis: I can't format my external hard drive -- my image of windows is on there | 02:52 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, any ideas? | 02:52 |
| subcool | ok- guess the "." was necessary | 02:53 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, so how are you trying to back up to it? what are you backing up? | 02:54 |
| SolarisBoy | lols | 02:54 |
| SolarisBoy | subcool: you should also put what you typed not what you thought you copied =) | 02:54 |
| subcool | what? | 02:54 |
| oldbreed | Dr_willis: I'm using the native Ubuntu backup program to try to back Ubuntu up to my external hard drive (about 400 GB hard drive) | 02:54 |
| subcool | i c/p'ed the command | 02:54 |
| subcool | from my terminal | 02:54 |
| oldbreed | Dr_willis: But I get the previous error | 02:54 |
| SolarisBoy | udo chown -R root:admin . ## make this directory writable by the system administrators | 02:54 |
| SolarisBoy | this one? | 02:55 |
| SolarisBoy | with the "." ? right | 02:55 |
| subcool | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5614650 | 02:55 |
| SolarisBoy | subcool: did you post that one before? | 02:56 |
| subcool | oh ya- :/ | 02:56 |
| SolarisBoy | =) | 02:56 |
| giupeppo | hi guys, I've just installed lubuntu 13.04 on my sony netbook but sound doesn't work.. can you help me please? (launching alsamixer it seem I've 3 different soundcards) thanks!! | 02:56 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, never used it.. i just backup my imporntant files. ive never done a full system backup | 02:57 |
| azazel91 | can anybody tell me why i cant connect to localhost | 02:57 |
| Dr_willis | azazel91, connect how? | 02:57 |
| subcool | should i be concerned about this: subcool@AMDServer:/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa$ ./clean-all | 02:58 |
| subcool | rm: cannot remove `/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys': Permission denied | 02:58 |
| azazel91 | i guess the server is not running im not sure | 02:58 |
| oldbreed | Dr_willis: So, theoretically, if I managed to back up my system, could I restore it outside of Windows and keep everything as it is now? | 02:58 |
| SolarisBoy | subcool: you need to be root to run those scripts int hat directory - | 02:58 |
| SolarisBoy | subcool: or use sudo | 02:58 |
| carrera | can anyone tell me how I can go from ubuntu 12.04 to xubuntu 13.04 and keep my RAID0 config? | 02:58 |
| subcool | SolarisBoy, ok- thanks. | 02:58 |
| subcool | i was considering the same. but- the example says sudo the frist times. | 02:59 |
| atrus | !error | azazel91 | 02:59 |
| ubottu | azazel91: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 02:59 |
| SolarisBoy | oldbreed: the ubuntu default program allows you to exclude by folder if that helps - | 02:59 |
| azazel91 | oh ok i give you the details | 02:59 |
| Jordan_U | carrera: If nothing else you can upgrade to 2.10 then 13.04. | 02:59 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, teres dozens of ways to backup stuff. I dont backup an entire system. I just keep my improntant data files./ and any specaial configs somewhere.. then do a clean install and copy them back | 02:59 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, thank u sir but can I upgrade from ubuntu to xubuntu? | 03:00 |
| Jordan_U | carrera: You can also use the server install CD for 13.04. I'm still trying to figure out it the Desktop image is supposed to support mdraid. | 03:00 |
| atrus | carrera: #1: if your data is important, you back it up. if you don't have a backup, you don't consider it important. also, raid is NOT a backup. | 03:00 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, thanks, u're awesome! :) | 03:00 |
| oldbreed | Dr_willis: But I kinda wanna keep everything. The whole reason I'm tryna delete Windows is because I was settled into Ubuntu... | 03:01 |
| Dr_willis | carrera, you just upgrade, then install the xubuntu-desktop package | 03:01 |
| azazel91 | well i installed this server a couple a months ago today i wanted to test it out so i went to the main page (http://localhost) but firfox cant obviously connect well thats what it says | 03:01 |
| foobArrr | does using compiz / compositing affect gaming performance? | 03:01 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, might be quicker to just reinstall and restore the imporntant stuff.. people try to hard to 'clone' setups.. | 03:01 |
| atrus | carrera: #2 do you have some reason to think upgrading from 12.04->12.10->13.04 wouldn't work? that's the usual approach for upgrading, raid or not. | 03:01 |
| SolarisBoy | azazel91: if you don't run a webserver on localhost that would make sense | 03:01 |
| Jordan_U | carrera: The only difference between Ubuntu and Xubuntu is the default set of installed packages. You can install xubuntu-desktop at any time (and remove whatever bits you don't want that came with ubuntu-desktop). | 03:01 |
| carrera | atrus, I have a recent backup but I can't even create RAID from xubuntu 13.04 desktop! | 03:01 |
| SolarisBoy | azazel91: do you purposefully set you main page to the localhost on port 80? | 03:02 |
| azazel91 | well i dont know what port example im a newbie and all | 03:02 |
| SolarisBoy | azazel91: the http:// implies port 80 unless the port is specified after the HOSTNAME part - | 03:02 |
| azazel91 | yes | 03:03 |
| SolarisBoy | azazel91: so in general that entry of having your browser default page be localhost - implies something is answering back like a webserver would - either by you having one installed locally - or forwarding ports or etc. | 03:03 |
| azazel91 | so how exactly do i fix this | 03:04 |
| === leif is now known as Guest12875 | ||
| SolarisBoy | azazel91: so if the problem is you can't connect to the localhost - and you indeed know that you should have a webserver there - then you should check if that webserver is up/running - | 03:04 |
| SolarisBoy | azazel91: you need to know why you have localhost set in your browser more accurately though - that would help | 03:04 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, Dr_willis, atrus, I really don't want Unity and Zeitgeist on my system. That's why I'm moving to xubuntu. Also, if I upgrade, would it upgrade to 13.04 server or desktop? | 03:04 |
| atrus | carrera: what do you have installed right now? | 03:04 |
| oldbreed | Dr_willis: What qualifies as important? | 03:04 |
| oldbreed | Dr_willis: What kinds of things should I be backing up? | 03:05 |
| carrera | 12.04 server, then I installed gnome | 03:05 |
| atrus | carrera: if you upgrade, i expect you'll basically have the same thing, but the 13.04 version. | 03:05 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, its your system.. you tell me whats imporntant to you.. | 03:06 |
| carrera | but I have problems with wirless. It takes for ever to resolve and I'm on a 25 Mb/s connection. | 03:06 |
| azazel91 | so solarisboy how to restart the server | 03:06 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, i normally just backup my home. and any custome configs | 03:06 |
| carrera | I just booted with xubuntu 13.04 live and pages open ever so quickly | 03:06 |
| carrera | also, the 12.04 server kept looking for Ethernet connection at boot, therefore slowing down my boot | 03:07 |
| oldbreed | Dr_willis: One last question on the cloning...can I just copy my whole folder into the external drive? | 03:07 |
| oldbreed | And how do I even go about installing the new OS without an OS? I've never operated a computer without an operating system | 03:08 |
| Jordan_U | carrera: Again, the difference between Ubuntu flavors is only the default set of installed packages (and, in the case of server a different installer), it's all "Ubuntu". If you installed Ubuntu server then installed the ubuntu-desktop metapackage, then installed tux racer then when you upgrade you will have all of the packages from ubuntu-server, and ubuntu-desktop, and you will also still have tux racer. | 03:08 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, you make a bootable cd.. or usb.. and boot it | 03:08 |
| oldbreed | How big a CD would I need? | 03:09 |
| Jordan_U | oldbreed: A DVD. | 03:09 |
| oldbreed | Jordan_U: So a 700MB CD-RW Wouldn't work? | 03:09 |
| carrera | atrus, at this point, I'm willing to forget about my 1 TB of data and read it back from backup but xubuntu 13.04 desktop and I bet ubuntu desktop will not let me create RAID partitions | 03:10 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, thanks. Then upgrade is not an option | 03:10 |
| Guest12875 | what binds the keyboard fn volume keys' up/down to the pulseaudio mixer configuration and where do I find it please? | 03:10 |
| Jordan_U | oldbreed: If you're trying to install Ubuntu Desktop, no. (technically you could install from the mini.iso, which will even fit easily on a business card CD, but I doubt that you want to do that). | 03:11 |
| Jordan_U | carrera: You're welcome. | 03:11 |
| carrera | can anyone tell me how to create RAID partitions with 13.04 desktop? | 03:11 |
| carrera | is it even possible? | 03:11 |
| SolarisBoy | Guest12875: check in the Settings>Keyboard section | 03:11 |
| Guest12875 | yes it is but why do a software raid | 03:11 |
| oldbreed | Jordan_U: I just realized that I could us the 400GB external HDD I have -- that would work, correct? | 03:11 |
| Jordan_U | carrera: I think your best option would probably be to install via the netboot iso, or install via the server iso then install the ubuntu-desktop metapackage (and remove any of the ubuntu-server packages you don't want). | 03:12 |
| Jordan_U | oldbreed: Use it for what? | 03:12 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, make a bootable usb flash drive.. its the handiest thing to have and to install from | 03:12 |
| oldbreed | Dr_willis: I have an 8GB flash drive on-hand right now. Would that be sufficient? | 03:13 |
| Dr_willis | oldbreed, yes | 03:13 |
| Dr_willis | it dosent need to be more then like 4gb i think | 03:13 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, I have problems with my current server install. For one, it takes too long to boot when ethernet is not connected. 2. page loads, dns resolves, take too long! :( | 03:13 |
| erdmutter92 | Does ubuntu 13.04 have out of the box support for the fans in the macbook pro? | 03:13 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, that's why I don't want to go the Server + DE root again | 03:14 |
| lotuspsychje | !mac | erdmutter92 | 03:14 |
| ubottu | erdmutter92: For help on installing and using Ubuntu on a mac, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MactelSupportTeam/CommunityHelpPages | 03:14 |
| Jordan_U | erdmutter92: I think I answered you the last time you asked that. Do you remember that? | 03:15 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, but I haven't tried netboot yet. Someone on #xubuntu also suggested that | 03:15 |
| erdmutter92 | Jordan_U: No, I don't I am sorry :\ | 03:15 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, it's a 30 MB file | 03:15 |
| SolarisBoy | is just the base kernel and small environment enough to pull the other OS files from the net | 03:16 |
| SolarisBoy | the trade off is install time is longer than having it all on a local media - | 03:16 |
| carrera | Dr_willis, Jordan_U, atrus, many thanks for your help. Going to try netboot. Wish me luck! | 03:17 |
| BitcoinTicker | What's up | 03:17 |
| BitcoinTicker | Just wrote a MtGox Bitcoin Desktop Ticker if anyone want's it | 03:17 |
| Dr_willis | carrera, id have a bootable cd/usb/dvd allready made.. incase that fails | 03:17 |
| erdmutter92 | lotuspsychje: That document does not have information on fans nor the Macbook Pro 9,2. | 03:17 |
| Rootbrian | solarisboy: if you have a good quality high speed connection, it would be just as fast as from CD. | 03:17 |
| Jordan_U | erdmutter92: The fans in macs are controlled by the firmware, so the OS doesn't need to support anything for the fans to automatically turn on when things start getting hot. There is also some support for telling the firmware to increase the fan speed (or decrease it, though that's not recommended) beyond what it would normally do. I don't know if there is support for the latter bit for all macbook pro models. | 03:17 |

| Jordan_U | erdmutter92: Apple's defaults for the fan tend to be pretty low, I think that they value quietness over coolness (and remember that companies don't sell "laptops" anymore, just "notebooks" :) | 03:20 |

| zivester | anyone have ubuntu installed on a macbook with refit or refind? wondering how kernel updates are handled | 03:25 |
| Jordan_U | zivester: rEFIt and refind just load grub, which handles kernel updates the same way it does for other platforms. | 03:26 |
| subcool | Ok, i got a good one for you this time guys. Is there a way to deteremine which usb port is the usb2 or 3 port? | 03:26 |
| zivester | Jordan_U, I installed ubuntu without grub... and i had to manually copy my kernel images over to the /EFI/ directory of OSX | 03:26 |
| shantorn | usb3 ports are blue | 03:27 |
| Jordan_U | zivester: Why didn't you install grub? | 03:27 |
| zivester | Jordan_U, tutorials i followed said not to: http://randomtutor.blogspot.com/2013/02/installing-ubuntu-1304-on-retina.html | 03:27 |
| zivester | and I would assume it would install to the MBR and would wipe out everything | 03:27 |
| Jordan_U | zivester: 1: It wouldn't install to the MBR if you were using grub-efi 2: Even if you were using grub-pc and installed grub to the MBR it wouldn't "wipe out everything", in fact it would "wipe out" or hurt anything. | 03:28 |
| Dr_willis | Hmm.. They need to make usb ports glow in the dark so i can find them when im trying to plug in somthing under the desk to the pc... ;) | 03:29 |
| zivester | Jordan_U, how do specificy whether it uses grub-efi and not grub-pc? I'm not a mac user by any means, if I had a choice I wouldn't be using one | 03:29 |
| Jordan_U | zivester: The author of that Tutorial seems to assume that grub doesn't support EFI. Grub has supported EFI for longer than refind or rEFIt have existed. | 03:30 |
| Jordan_U | zivester: If you boot the Ubuntu installation media via [U]EFI then it will detect that and install grub-efi, and you can always install the grub-efi package manually yourself later. | 03:31 |
| === joaquin is now known as joaquinPlanet | ||
| zivester | Jordan_U, ok well its a 13.04 install on a rMBP... I installed refind and xubuntu without a bootloader... if you were doing it would you have just installed it with the bootloader? | 03:32 |
| zivester | I'm not sure whether it booted it UEFI or not | 03:32 |
| Jordan_U | zivester: Yes. | 03:32 |
| trakowski77 | trying to use irc on 13.04, with accounts... | 03:34 |
| trakowski77 | Not sure how to do it | 03:34 |
| zivester | Jordan_U, just booted from my USB key again... it shows two EFI boot options... both seem to load the same xubuntu live image... so if i installed this again it will install correctly? how will the OSX /EFI/ directory know about the ubuntu install? | 03:34 |
| joaquinPlanet | hi, can u read me? I don't know if I set this right | 03:35 |
| Jordan_U | joaquinPlanet: No, we can't see you. | 03:36 |
| joaquinPlanet | haha, thanks | 03:36 |
| trakowski77 | can someone help me connecting to IRC using empathy on 13.04 ? I'm trying to use the Online Account thing but no luck | 03:36 |
| Jordan_U | zivester: Install Ubuntu normally but keep refind. You will get an refind menu at boot which will allow you to choose between loading OSX and loading grub, and if you load grub it will work as normal. | 03:37 |
| trakowski77 | (i'm currently connected using Pidgin) | 03:37 |
| trakowski77 | also, does anyone know if it is possible to connect to Lync using empathy ? | 03:38 |
| zivester | Jordan_U, so in that case, I don't need to manually create the /EFI/ubuntu directory with the initrd or vmlinuz files? I'll have to check that out | 03:39 |
| Jordan_U | zivester: Correct. | 03:39 |
| zivester | last thing I want to do is mess up my system so I can't get into OSX | 03:39 |
| bambam | Hi, is anyone else having issues with flash on 13.04. I'd like to get GPU rendering/decoding working on flash without having the adobe flash plugin crash 50% of the time at random (I'm having trouble re-creating the issue) | 03:41 |
| bambam | I'm using NVIDIA drivers with VDPAU | 03:41 |
| lotuspsychje | trakowski77: http://askubuntu.com/questions/173417/chatting-with-empathy | 03:42 |
| truexfan81 | when i kernel drops to a initramfs prompt, does it leave a log somewhere to tell why? | 03:42 |
| cthulhusaurus | hi | 03:42 |
| trakowski77 | lotuspsychje: thanks, checking it out | 03:42 |
| bambam | I created a file called mms.cfg in /etc/adobe and added the following "EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode=1 OverrideGPUValidation=1" and while that seemed to be able to get me smooth HD video playback, I have the adobe flash plugin crash at random | 03:43 |
| bambam | Has anyone else experienced this? | 03:43 |
| Jordan_U | truexfan81: No, it can't because the root filesystem hasn't been mounted yet (so there is nowhere to write a log to). | 03:43 |
| truexfan81 | ouch | 03:43 |
| bambam | I still have* | 03:43 |
| truexfan81 | Jordan_U: so no way to figure out what is broken in the custom kernel then? | 03:43 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: did you upgrade or clean install? | 03:43 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: Clean install | 03:43 |
| bambam | I've had this issue with Ubuntu since as far as I've had this GPU (3 years) | 03:44 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: thats weird indeed, did you check additional drivers if grafix driver changed? | 03:44 |
| bambam | lousygarua: Yes, I'm using nvidia-current | 03:44 |
| bambam | tested | 03:44 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: that is normal for flash to crash with hw acceleration turned on, i did figure out a work around for it tho | 03:44 |
| cthulhusaurus | irssi | 03:44 |
| bambam | truexfan81: Really? I'd like to hear it | 03:45 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: did you install ubuntu-restricted-extras ? | 03:45 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: Yes, I did | 03:45 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: if you pay attention it give the bottom control bar just b4 the vid starts | 03:45 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: other browsers with same issue? | 03:45 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: click the fullscreen button b4 the video starts and it will come up and play, once its playing you can exit fullscreen if you wish | 03:46 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: All browsers using the flash installed from the package "flashplugin-installer" | 03:46 |
| bambam | which is what ubuntu-restricted-extras provides, IIRC | 03:46 |
| bambam | Chrome's pepper flash works without crashing but I'm not able to get GPU video decoding working | 03:47 |
| bambam | so HD playback has a lot of frame drops | 03:47 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: i know but does it crash same way for another browser | 03:47 |
| lotuspsychje | hmm | 03:47 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: the pepper flash does not use the mms.cfg, thats why | 03:47 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: I should try to reproduce it | 03:47 |
| truexfan81 | use what i told you, i promise it works | 03:47 |
| bambam | truexfan81: Yeah, is there any way I can get HWVideoDecoding work with pepper? | 03:48 |
| trakowski77 | lotuspsychje: I think this tutorial refers to 12.10. On 13.04 things appear to be much different | 03:48 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: if so i have never found it | 03:48 |
| bambam | truexfan81: Actually I think I've done exactly what you describe on accident | 03:48 |
| bambam | Dirty fix | 03:48 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: maybe its early bug in nvidia-current? | 03:48 |
| truexfan81 | yeah try it again, see does it not work | 03:48 |
| babel_ | Hi. I just setup 13.04, and the wired connection takes extremely long to establish. but once connected, it's fast | 03:48 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: I'm willing to bet it's more likely flash | 03:49 |
| bambam | It's unsupported now afterall, right? | 03:49 |

| bambam | truexfan81: You mean full HW acceleration | 03:51 |
| truexfan81 | put a vid fullscreen, then right-click and click show video info, it will tell you | 03:51 |
| Dr_willis | I just recall seeing a flash video, in the properties. the 'enable hardware acceleration' was checked. | 03:51 |
| Dr_willis | I recall that i had actually turned that off some months ago.. to get rid of the SMURF Syndrome. ;) | 03:52 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 03:52 |
| bambam | truexfan81: what flash do you have installed? | 03:52 |
| bambam | what package | 03:52 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: i have a gtx650 with the latest nvidia beta driver | 03:52 |
| truexfan81 | i have flash 11.2 | 03:52 |
| truexfan81 | it crashes just as you described, unless i do what i told you which is to fullscreen it b4 the vid starts playing | 03:53 |
| ddsss | suspend doesn't work in 13.04 - why? | 03:53 |
| omegasir | I don't like unity | 03:53 |
| Dr_willis | omegasir, so use somthing else. | 03:53 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: one of the many things adobe did not fix before they abandoned linux | 03:53 |
| james-ubc | omegasir, does anybody actually like unity? | 03:54 |
| Dr_willis | Unity works fine for me. | 03:54 |
| james-ubc | it's the ugliest thing I've ever seen | 03:54 |
| sam113101 | I like it | 03:54 |
| Dr_willis | Subjective opinions. ;) | 03:54 |
| Dr_willis | ive definatly seen Uglier. | 03:54 |
| james-ubc | no it's really not subjective | 03:54 |
| Dr_willis | Yes it is.. | 03:54 |
| james-ubc | it's poor HCI | 03:54 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: can you do this in terminal cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep sse2 | 03:54 |
| scriptjunkie | anybody seen issues with wireless interference after 13.04 upgrade? | 03:55 |
| jcoreyelmore | Hi, does anybody feel like helping me figure out a problem with deluge? | 03:55 |
| james-ubc | it has gaudy usless gradients and blurrs | 03:55 |
| Dr_willis | HydroCloraicAcid? :) | 03:55 |
| james-ubc | that serve no real purpose | 03:55 |
| jcoreyelmore | Any time I add a torrent it gives me the error of permission denied | 03:55 |
| james-ubc | do not help conveyance or hint properly | 03:55 |
| scriptjunkie | just submitted https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1174145 <- really painful to the rest of my family :-( | 03:55 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1174145 in Ubuntu "Broadcom 4313 causes heavy interference with wireless clients after 13.04 upgrade" [Undecided,New] | 03:55 |
| scriptjunkie | yeah that was me | 03:55 |
| james-ubc | that's objectively poor UI design | 03:55 |
| truexfan81 | jcoreyelmore: try #deluge ;) | 03:55 |
| jcoreyelmore | i'm somewhat of a noob and don't want to mess things up changing permissions | 03:55 |
| lotuspsychje | !broadcom | scriptjunkie | 03:55 |
| ubottu | scriptjunkie: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 03:55 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5614750/ | 03:55 |
| Dr_willis | james-ubc, sounds like you are just spouting off buzzwords.. but its not really on topic. | 03:56 |
| bambam | truexfan81: That's what I've read too - may I ask how you have flash 11.2 installed? | 03:56 |
| bambam | What's the name of the package you use | 03:56 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: does sse2 turn red? | 03:56 |
| scriptjunkie | lotuspsychje - what? is that a command I should run? or are you a bot? | 03:56 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: my linux netbook is running debian wheezy, so the package name is likely different | 03:56 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: Yes it does | 03:56 |
| lotuspsychje | scriptjunkie: its a help page for installing broadcom drivers | 03:57 |
| LargePrime | I have a user i added to www-data. They cannot seem to edit files in /var/www. Sorry for the noobish. what did i do wrong? | 03:57 |
| scriptjunkie | ah | 03:57 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: your machine should be able to run flash then | 03:57 |
| Dr_willis | LargePrime, did you log out/back in after adding them to the group? | 03:57 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: but if you really want me to i can ssh in and search for the package name | 03:57 |
| LargePrime | Dr_willis: me? or them? | 03:58 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: Yeah, it can run it (software rendering and decoding) but if I want to play 720p video, I get way too many framedrops | 03:58 |
| Flannel | LargePrime: Did you modify permissions to enable group writing? | 03:58 |
| Dr_willis | LargePrime, if you change a users group the changes do not take affect untill the user logs back in. I think ive seen others have this issue | 03:58 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: my search shows i flashplugin-nonfree - Adobe Flash Player - browser plugin | 03:58 |
| mar | what must I install to get this page to work? http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Scan.aspx?lang=en-us | 03:58 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: did you try a 720p or higher on vlc, what does it do? | 03:58 |
| LargePrime | Flannel: nope. how i do? | 03:58 |
| mar | i have JRE7 installed already | 03:58 |
| LargePrime | Flannel: sorry i retract that | 03:59 |
| Flannel | LargePrime: no worries. | 03:59 |
| Dr_willis | mar : its best to use the nvidia drivers from the repos. not the ones from the nvidia.com site | 03:59 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: I have to use the OpenGL render and enable GPU decoding, then HD film is very smooth, zero frame drops. | 03:59 |
| LargePrime | Dr_willis: can i force a logout | 03:59 |
| scriptjunkie | lotuspsychje thanks - will be back if I don't kill my wireless driver | 03:59 |
| Dr_willis | LargePrime, i imagine you can.. but why? | 03:59 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: then it must be flash like you think | 03:59 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: i dare you to try smplayer with vdpau output | 04:00 |
| bambam | truexfan81: Yep, I already have (but with mplayer) | 04:00 |
| LargePrime | Dr_willis: cause it easier to force than ans and wait | 04:00 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: yeah smplayer is just a gui for mplayer | 04:00 |
| sean-w | Why are the ubuntu repos unusable in ipv6? | 04:00 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: I was able to get smooth HD flash playback once I installed the vdapau library and enable EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode and OverrideGPUValidation in /etc/adobe/mms.cfg | 04:01 |
| Dr_willis | LargePrime, you could just reboot the whole box if you want to go overboard.. ;) | 04:01 |
| trakowski77 | anyone knows how to make empathy connect to sipe (Microsoft Lync) ? ... ubuntu 13.04... | 04:01 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: I'm not sure why I have to install libvdpau1 since I know the nvidia binary drivers already come with an vdpau driver | 04:02 |
| cthulhus2urus | \networ | 04:02 |
| bambam | but that seemed to do the trick | 04:02 |
| mar | Dr_willis: ok. So then how do I do that. I notice 'additional-drivers' jockey thingy doesn't come with 13.04 | 04:02 |
| bambam | Anyway, it is hit or miss, I have to do that trick truexfan81 talked about to not make flash crash | 04:03 |
| Dr_willis | mar its in there.. its under software sources -> addational drivers tab. | 04:03 |
| bambam | truexfan81: Actually it seems like flash also crashes whenever I try to seek video that hasn't been pre-loaded | 04:03 |
| bambam | Did you experience that too? | 04:03 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: i haven't tried to seek one with that so no | 04:03 |
| bambam | I'll try to recreate this in another browser, like Opera | 04:03 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: i mainly only use flashplayer for justin.tv | 04:04 |
| mar | Dr_willis, aha, just not installed | 04:05 |
| bambam | truexfan81: do you get frame drops when viewing HTML 5 hd video? | 04:05 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: idk | 04:05 |
| bambam | there is no GPU acceleration IIRC? | 04:05 |
| * bambam is wondering when flash is going to die | 04:05 | |
| truexfan81 | i'm not very familiar with html5, so i can't say much about it | 04:05 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: I wish I could see what those adobe flash crash reports are saying | 04:09 |
| bambam | There doesn't seem to be a way to see what they dump | 04:09 |
| bambam | only "send report" | 04:09 |
| Dr_willis | bambam, sadly i even see Ubuntu Blog sites still using Flash for their videos ;( | 04:11 |
| LargePrime | thanks Dr_willis Flannel . the combo worked | 04:15 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: maybe try a tail -f on /var/log/syslog and fool around with flash a bit | 04:15 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: or star firefox from terminal and see what msges you get | 04:16 |
| batmite | Hi, is there a channel for general IRC questions/info? | 04:17 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: I think like truexfan81 said, it seems like a bug Adobe refused to fix right before it officially dropped support for Linux | 04:17 |
| Dr_willis | batmite, #irc or #freenode or one for your specific client | 04:17 |
| batmite | Dr_willis thanks | 04:17 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: i had same issues like you on older systems using older grafix cards with flash | 04:18 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: all new systems i installed ubuntu with never gave me any troubles anymore | 04:18 |
| bambam | Dr_willis: :/ well, if they're going to post their HTML 5 videos in HD, I probably won't be able to stream them smoothly within my browser anyway :\ | 04:18 |
| truexfan81 | lotuspsychje: define old, i have that crashing issue with my nvidia gtx650 | 04:19 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: HD video too? | 04:19 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: The card isn't very old, it | 04:19 |
| bambam | 's an NVIDIA GT 610 | 04:19 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: it had no hd no | 04:19 |
| === Fred_ is now known as Guest53386 | ||
| bambam | yeah, that seems to be the difference | 04:20 |
| bambam | I can comfortably view 360p flash videos without HW acceleration and get no frame drops | 04:20 |
| truexfan81 | bambam: i have a dualcore 2.9with 4GB ram, i can watch 1080p flash with or without hw acceleration, with no frame drops | 04:21 |
| bambam | truexfan81: I have a single core, so I'm forced to use hw acceleration | 04:21 |
| truexfan81 | i just like the hw acceleration because it frees up my cpu for other things | 04:21 |
| Dr_willis | i tend to just use the various flash-downloader extensions. ;) | 04:21 |
| bambam | same | 04:21 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: what does chrome do on 1080p youtubes on your system? | 04:22 |
| bambam | Dr_willis: Same here, it can get cumbersome, I just want to stream video sometimes | 04:22 |
| Dr_willis | bambam, there used to be a flash-replacer extension that would play flash videos in vlc or mplayer embeded in the browser. or poped out.. | 04:22 |
| bambam | I have been looking for that | 04:22 |
| bambam | it seems like it's been discontinued or something | 04:23 |
| lotuspsychje | indeed | 04:23 |
| Dr_willis | yep. it still worked last i used it. but you got to get it from the plugins site. not the firefox site | 04:23 |
| lotuspsychje | but there's a plugin for firefox 'open with anything' or something | 04:23 |
| lotuspsychje | then open smplayer | 04:23 |
| biggenius | Hello | 04:23 |
| UbunWinTosh | I'm unable to adjust brightness for my Ubuntu OS. Does anyone know why that is? I tried screendimmer but it didn't work. I suspect it may have to do with the proprietary video driver. | 04:24 |
| biggenius | Fn + f5 | 04:24 |
| biggenius | Try that | 04:24 |
| UbunWinTosh | biggenius: I tried that along with the settings in the Brightness and lock app. Neither worked. | 04:24 |
| biggenius | Guys anyone knows how to join django irc channel on freenode? | 04:24 |
| biggenius | hmm strange | 04:25 |
| biggenius | my installation doesn't remember brightness settings | 04:25 |
| wilee-nilee | biggenius, /j "channel" | 04:25 |
| biggenius | tried that bro | 04:26 |
| biggenius | it says "you must be identified with service" | 04:26 |
| biggenius | I don't know, how it works, already registered | 04:26 |
| UbunWinTosh | I also tried joining #Django but that room does not load. | 04:26 |
| UbunWinTosh | other rooms do load for me. | 04:26 |
| truexfan81 | biggenius: /msg nickserv help identify | 04:26 |
| biggenius | biggenius: /msg nickserv help identify | 04:26 |
| Dr_willis | Many channels require you to be Identified. Your chat client proberly gave some message about that | 04:27 |
| biggenius | ok | 04:27 |
| biggenius | thanks bro it worked!!! | 04:27 |
| UbunWinTosh | As soon as I joined #Ubuntu for my first time, I was banned and had to re-enter. I think it's because I had a username similar to someone else and didn't identify, so I was banned. | 04:27 |
| bambam | Dr_willis: http://www.webgapps.org/addons/flashvideoreplacer | 04:28 |
| bambam | :/ | 04:28 |
| Dr_willis | bambam, if its open sourced.. you could revive it! ;) | 04:28 |
| biggenius | ok | 04:28 |
| mar | Dr_willis, I installed additional drivers but it doesn't show up in my classic menu indicator or in unity launcher. There's one comment at the bottom of the entry in Software Centre and it says 'why you no werk for 13.04?' | 04:30 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: https://addons.mozilla.org/nl/firefox/addon/open-with/ then install that smplayer | 04:30 |
| lotuspsychje | bambam: maybe #firefox knows any new stuff? | 04:30 |
| bambam | lotuspsychje: I should ask, yeah | 04:31 |
| mar | Dr_willis, search USC for nvidia gives 3 drivers. Should I install one of these? | 04:31 |
| Dr_willis | mar i always just install nvidia-current | 04:32 |
| Dr_willis | but i got an older nvidia card. a 320gtx i think. | 04:32 |
| lotuspsychje | Dr_willis: is there a command to know wich driver 13.04 would install by setup default? | 04:33 |
| alumno | a | 04:33 |
| Dr_willis | never really noticed lotuspsychje ... all my pcs use the same drivers :) | 04:34 |
| mar | Dr_willis, sounds reasonable. I've messed up in the past installing the latest and didn't know how to reset X configuration | 04:34 |
| truexfan81 | lotuspsychje: by default do you mean that comes with a new 13.04 install? that would be nouveau | 04:34 |
| lotuspsychje | truexfan81: but maybe there are left-overs that would corrupt on upgrade? | 04:35 |
| truexfan81 | not sure what you mean by an upgrade do you mean upgrading from a previous ubuntu (bad idea) or a previous proprietary driver install? | 04:36 |
| lotuspsychje | bbl sorry | 04:36 |
| UbunWinTosh | What's the easiest way to move a file from Desktop to /etc/api? It's requiring root privileges in order to do that. | 04:41 |
| Dr_willis | sudo cp file /path/to/file | 04:42 |
| jrib | UbunWinTosh: what's /etc/api for? What's this file for? | 04:42 |
| UbunWinTosh | jrib: for adjusting brightness | 04:42 |
| Dr_willis | you need sudo rights to mess with the system directories of course. ;) | 04:42 |
| UbunWinTosh | it's actually going into /etc/api/events | 04:42 |
| UbunWinTosh | jrib: sorry, I meant acpi | 04:43 |
| UbunWinTosh | Nevermind, I found out. sudo cp /source/files /destination/folder :) | 04:45 |
| Dr_willis | sudo cp file /path/to/file like i said... ;) | 04:46 |
| UbunWinTosh | oh sorry, missed that Dr_willis. I found it by Googling. :D | 04:47 |
| Tumlee | Is it just me, or is there no longer a preferences menu in Nautilus as of 13.04? | 04:47 |
| benno123 | how do i use my own PGP signature with mail.ru ? | 04:49 |
| bambam | What would cause my /tmp/ folder to fill up so quickly on a fresh install? I did not download anything except stream a few videos | 04:50 |
| bambam | It filled up to 50 GB O_O | 04:50 |
| thomas____ | Open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install nautilus. | 04:50 |
| thomas____ | Then restart your session. | 04:50 |
| thomas____ | For some reason, Nautilus is not completely updated when you install the Elementary version. This will complete the upgrading process and Preferences and Menu will be there again the next time you start Nautilus. | 04:50 |
| Tumlee | Restart my nautilus session, or my gnome session? | 04:51 |
| thomas____ | copied this from a user question on ubuntu help pages | 04:51 |
| thomas____ | that was the answer, I meant to add! | 04:51 |
| thomas____ | nautilus session I assume | 04:52 |
| Tumlee | I just did did sudo apt-get install nautilus, it was already installed (I've actually reinstalled it from when I removed it earlier anyway) | 04:53 |
| thomas____ | but it wouldn't hurt to try one and then the other | 04:53 |
| Tumlee | doing killall nautilus and reopening nautilus did nothing | 04:53 |
| UbunWinTosh | just finished this tutorial http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2088190&s=5b63fff9c23a2a229aa15a06ca453f1d&p=12373220#post12373220 and brightness still does not work! :( | 04:53 |
| Tumlee | Furthermore, any view settings I change (such as hiding the side bar) are completely forgotten the next time I open nautilus | 04:53 |
| Dr_willis | Tumlee, you havent ran nautilus as root in the past have you? | 04:54 |
| Tumlee | I've done a gksudo nautilus, if that's what you mean | 04:54 |

| zilla_ | HI | 04:56 |
| Tumlee | This is not the same bug I have experienced | 04:56 |
| RustyShackleford | there are some trick letters coming up | 04:57 |
| Tumlee | I am missing all menus no matter if I run as user or root | 04:57 |
| RustyShackleford | Z___ Z___ | 04:57 |
| zilla_ | how can i install ubuntu to usb external drive from windows | 04:57 |
| Tumlee | Judging by this screenshot http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/new-nautilus-in-ubuntu.jpg It looks like it's not even supposed to be there | 04:57 |
| RustyShackleford | zilla_, http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ | 04:57 |
| Jordan_U | zilla_: A real installation (Not just a liveUSB)? | 04:57 |
| zilla_ | yes | 04:58 |
| RustyShackleford | oh nevermind then | 04:58 |
| Jordan_U | zilla_: You basically can't. Why do you want to do it "from Windows"? | 04:58 |
| zilla_ | because when i try rom linux | 04:58 |
| zilla_ | it says BUG: cannot blah blah kernel | 04:59 |
| Jordan_U | zilla_: What is the exact error message and when do you see it? | 04:59 |
| Paul_MyBB1 | Hey, is anyone else having an issue where after you close an application the icon remains pinned to the launcher even if you didn't pin it? | 04:59 |
| zilla_ | Jordan_U: too tired to look it over again | 04:59 |
| Paul_MyBB1 | (raring) | 04:59 |
| zilla_ | just trying to get it wo work | 04:59 |
| Dr_willis | Tumlee, ive seen cases where running nautilus as root writes some of the config files to the users home. only owned by root.. thus the user cant change them | 05:00 |
| Jordan_U | zilla_: When did you see the error? | 05:00 |
| zilla_ | at boot | 05:00 |
| zilla_ | when it normallyu shows ubuntu loading | 05:00 |
| zilla_ | the try / install options | 05:00 |
| zilla_ | cant get to graphics | 05:00 |
| zilla_ | awful | 05:00 |
| Dr_willis | !nomodeset | 05:01 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 05:01 |
| Tumlee | Sorry, I was disconnected. | 05:01 |
| Dr_willis | Tumlee, ive seen cases where running nautilus as root writes some of the config files to the users home. only owned by root.. thus the user cant change them. Id check your Home directroy for stuff owned by root | 05:01 |
| Jordan_U | zilla_: Pretty much any problem you have booting the LiveDVD/USB you'll also have trying to boot the installed system (until you fix it of course). | 05:01 |
| Tumlee | Oh wow... I think these features may have been genuinely removed. I guess it's time to get an older version of nautilus | 05:03 |
| Cyris | technically i can put virtualbox in an external HD and run it from that, correct? | 05:04 |
| Jordan_U | Tumlee: Did you check for menus at the top of the screen (which are hidden until you move the mouse there)? | 05:05 |
| Dr_willis | itss not going to be trivial to downgrade nautilus.. | 05:05 |
| Tumlee | Erm... I should have probably mentioned that I'm running Ubuntu GNOME so these settings don't actually appear there | 05:06 |
| Tumlee | Or wait, let me check if they do if I unhide the top bar | 05:06 |
| Jordan_U | Cyris: Run what from the external HD? | 05:06 |
| Tumlee | I am the owner of both of the files in ~/.config/nautilus though | 05:07 |
| jmadero | anyone here upgrade to 13.04 and using gnome shell experiencing some crappy repercussions? | 05:07 |
| Cyris | Jordan_U: correct | 05:07 |
| Dr_willis | jmadero, its working here fine last time i tried it. | 05:07 |
| thomas____ | Tumlee what does the Nautilus look like if you maximize it?...surely then you see the menus across the top! | 05:07 |
| jmadero | Dr_willis: my buddy just upgraded and his system is completely borked:-/ | 05:08 |
| jmadero | trying to help him out, I don't use Ubuntu so came here for guidance | 05:08 |
| Tumlee | Derp, I'm just dumb. Yup. The menus haven't been removed, just moved. | 05:08 |
| Cyris | Jordan_U: oh way wrong reply... run ubuntu or mac | 05:08 |
| biggenius | ok | 05:08 |
| Dr_willis | have him make a new user. see if it works for the newly made user | 05:08 |
| jmadero | Dr_willis: gave him that advice already, that was even worse, just went to a blue screen, never loaded | 05:09 |
| Tumlee | I didn't know they were there because I installed an extension to hide the top bar before I ever even ran nautilus | 05:09 |

| nobit2 | I'm trying to install oracle java on my ubuntu 13.04 server however it seems I don't have apt-add-repository or add-apt-repository command to add the repository suggested by the website. | 05:19 |
| mar | so I installed current nVidia drivers. Black is pitch black - that's good. But windows don't have borders and unity taskbar doesn't show. Are there any settings I can play with, or is my only option to revert? | 05:19 |
| jmadero | so this is what my buddy is seeing for gnome cairo dock session on 13.04 https://plus.google.com/photos/114741461989471917798/albums/5739082733911197745/5872127792435518834?banner=pwa | 05:19 |
| jmadero | clearly messed up | 05:19 |
| nobit2 | I also read that I had to install python-software-properties to get the command but it still didn't work | 05:20 |

| Mayank | Hi, I have two server running Ubuntu, A that is accessible only within the institution. I have another server B in the same institution that can be accessed from outside and it can access the server A as well. Can I run some service so that all HTTP traffic of A can be rendered outside using server B? | 05:22 |
| nobit2 | nm finally found an answer, it is in software-properties-common | 05:22 |
| savio | benno123 wait | 05:23 |
| benno123 | savio:ok!! | 05:23 |
| Jordan_U | Mayank: You can create an ssh tunnel, among other proxy options. | 05:24 |
| Mayank | Jordan_U: I want to access A from the web browser? Will it be possible? | 05:24 |
| b4dave_ | Is anyone here using Ubuntu 13.04 with Gnome 3.8? | 05:25 |
| === JKL1234- is now known as The_[206] | ||
| Jordan_U | Mayank: Yes, but I think you should be very careful with this, as there is probably a good reason why your institution has made this server only accesible internally. | 05:25 |
| Tumlee | b4dave_: It depends. What version does Ubuntu GNOME come with? | 05:26 |
| Mayank | Jordan_U: Nah, the only reason is they do not have a public IP for this server. So by creating a SSH tunnel from B to A all html/php files of A can be rendered on the web browser through B? | 05:27 |
| Tumlee | Er, nevermind. I have gnome 3.6 | 05:27 |
| savio | benno123 try gnupgp | 05:29 |
| b4dave_ | Tumlee I am using 3.8 and was wondering about stability issues. are you seeing any with 3.6? | 05:31 |
| benno123 | savio:do i can set up this with my mail.ru account? | 05:31 |
| Tumlee | I am having no stability issues. I've had a few annoyances with many themes no longer being compatible with GNOME, but that's about it. | 05:32 |
| Tumlee | It's working smoothly and without any crashes or quirks | 05:32 |
| benno123 | savio:it's not gnupgp it's gnuPG!! | 05:35 |
| quatamo | i like the new ubuntu | 05:35 |
| benno123 | so do i!!! | 05:35 |
| quatamo | lol it's gnu privacy guard not gnu pretty good privacy | 05:35 |
| benno123 | yeah!!! | 05:36 |
| benno123 | someone suggested!! | 05:36 |
| benno123 | quatamo:do you know anything about it? | 05:37 |
| benno123 | The GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG) is a free replacement for PGP. on GNU website!! | 05:37 |
| quatamo | benno123: Well, I know they're both asymmetric, i know how to generate keys, etc. So yeah I guess | 05:38 |
| benno123 | quatamo:if you don't mind,can you share it, please!! | 05:38 |

| daler | how to install gnome 3.8 on ubuntu? | 05:42 |
| quatamo | benno123: I would instead encrypt messages on a seperate client then copy-paste etc. Even gmail doesn't have a nice integration... well, if you use Thunderbird it can do it for you | 05:44 |
| b4dave_ | Tumlee its okay. :-) | 05:44 |
| quatamo | I mean thunderbird + enigmail | 05:44 |
| b4dave_ | daler I just down loaded the gnomebuntu release | 05:45 |

| Tumlee | daler: I've done a few simple Android apps under Linux, so I know it works. However, if you're planning on using AndEngine let me tell you, you're probably not going to do it. | 05:50 |
| daler | bad.. so what do you do in nix then? | 05:51 |
| Tumlee | What do you mean by that? | 05:51 |

| daler | android is open source, androis open source | 05:52 |

| daler | a little bit expensive if want to use java libraries | 05:54 |
| b4dave_ | silverex I am using a old gforce 8400 its works great! and it uses open drivers and best of all its under 35.00$ | 05:54 |
| daler | but very easy for game dev | 05:54 |

| friendoflinux | I recently installed Awesome WM on my Ubuntu Unity install. But when I boot into Awesome everything looks ugly (i.e. firefox). So I am wondering is it because of the Awesome theme or because of the GTK theme? Which should I look into? | 06:01 |
| somsip | friendoflinux: define 'ugly' AwesomeWM has no decoration at all as standard so it is very plain compared to pretty WMs | 06:01 |
| histo | friendoflinux: gtk theme | 06:02 |
| friendoflinux | somsip: so what i mean Firefox and Nautilus look very stale in Awesome WM and I was wondering what theme is causing that, GTK or will getting an awesome wm theme will fix the issue | 06:03 |
| MrDyne | Can you limit port access to domain subdomains? I want to limit the Minecraft server so that it can only be connected to through the subdomain. And the teamspeak server through another subdomain. Block direct IP requests. | 06:03 |
| friendoflinux | histo: so if i just change the WM theme Nautilus and Firefox will still look the same as they do now? | 06:03 |
| madprops | friendoflinux, probably gtk | 06:03 |
| madprops | friendoflinux, try lxappearance | 06:03 |
| somsip | friendoflinux: histo is recommending a gtk theme. as is madprops. I don't remember installing any gtk theme, but there you go | 06:04 |
| friendoflinux | madprops: isn't that the program that changes the theme in lxde? | 06:04 |
| histo | friendoflinux: yes but ti works well in other wm's | 06:04 |
| somsip | friendoflinux: I beg your pardon - I appear to have Raleigh installed | 06:05 |
| friendoflinux | histo, can you recommend me a good site for gtk themes? | 06:06 |
| histo | friendoflinux: gnome-look.org | 06:06 |
| friendoflinux | histo: Oh, I thought that was just for gnome, silly me :) | 06:06 |
| friendoflinux | hiso: do you happen to know if I change the theme for the WM if Nautilus and Firefox will still look the same as they do now? | 06:07 |
| histo | friendoflinux: Not if the theme is different | 06:07 |
| friendoflinux | histo: what do you mean by that? | 06:07 |

| btral | hi. i have a folder that contain multi folders too. how can i convert a dir to dir.tar.gz with gzip command? | 06:11 |
| theadmin | btral: You can't tar with gzip | 06:11 |
| theadmin | brad: tar czf dir.tar.gz dir | 06:11 |
| theadmin | Err | 06:12 |
| theadmin | btral: ^ | 06:12 |
| theadmin | brad: Sorry, tab fail | 06:12 |
| btral | theadmin: oh. how ca i do it? i dont hav tar command | 06:13 |
| btral | theadmin: i want to convert dir to dir.tar.gz or dir.gz | 06:13 |
| theadmin | btral: Err, tar is part of the base Ubuntu installation so you should have that command. | 06:14 |
| theadmin | btral: If not, apt-get install tar | 06:14 |
| theadmin | btral: You can't gzip a directory though, GZip can only compress one file | 06:14 |
| theadmin | btral: (like a TAR archive ;)) | 06:14 |
| btral | theadmin: ok. tnx | 06:15 |
| btral | theadmin: and how extract it to special folder? | 06:16 |
| theadmin | btral: tar xf something.tar.gz -C folder | 06:16 |
| theadmin | (note the uppercase C) | 06:16 |
| Blue11 | i can;t seem to set a default browser in xubuntu / thunderbir | 06:17 |
| theadmin | Blue11: Open the settings thingy and there's "Default applications" in there, just use that | 06:17 |
| btral | theadmin: tar: This does not look like a tar archive | 06:17 |
| btral | tar: Skipping to next header | 06:17 |
| btral | tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors | 06:17 |
| theadmin | btral: Hm, either this is a very old Ubuntu install or a strange version of tar, try tar xzf something.tar.gz then | 06:18 |
| Blue11 | theadmin: i cant find the default applicatons settings in xubuntu | 06:18 |
| Blue11 | theadmin: otherwise it would be easy | 06:18 |
| theadmin | Blue11: Applications menu -> Settings -> Settings Manager (or something) -> Default applications | 06:18 |
| theadmin | I can't remember what they called the control centre thing in Xfce | 06:19 |
| Blue11 | theadmin: I am in xubuntu | 06:19 |
| friendoflinux | histo: Thanks again btw! one thing, how do I know if a program uses GTK or not? is it possible to find out? | 06:19 |
| theadmin | Blue11: Right, and Xubuntu uses Xfce as the desktop | 06:19 |
| Blue11 | yes I am new to that. | 06:19 |
| theadmin | friendoflinux: Sure, ldd /path/to/app | grep gtk | 06:20 |
| histo | friendoflinux: possibly in the man pages for that application. Or look at it's dependencies | 06:20 |
| theadmin | (at least the most obvious way) | 06:20 |
| Blue11 | i have applications/system tools/preferences/ and nothing else | 06:20 |
| Blue11 | well no settings | 06:21 |
| friendoflinux | histo: So a program that is not using GTK should look the same whether im booting into unity or awesome wm regardless, correct? And the reason they look different now is because the GTK theme is different. | 06:21 |
| friendoflinux | theadmin: Thanks! | 06:21 |
| theadmin | Blue11: Run xfce4-settings in a terminal | 06:22 |
| histo | friendoflinux: The gtk theme selected is different yes. You need to read the awesome wiki | 06:22 |
| friendoflinux | histo: alright, thank you so so much man, much appreciated! | 06:22 |

| theadmin | MikeH: Oh, that's odd now | 07:28 |
| Yotis | Ubuntu 13.04 + Nvidia 8400GS = Problems; I did try the stock kernel with proprietary drivers (black screen stuck) or nouveau (cannot change screen resolution); Also the same drivers with kernel mainline builds, still no success; Any other suggestion for me? Thanks! | 07:28 |
| MikeH | I wondered if I was stuck half-way | 07:28 |
| theadmin | MikeH: Well, a broken upgrade can be fixed (in theory) with: sudo dpkg --configure -a ; sudo apt-get -f install ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 07:28 |
| theadmin | MikeH: In case it is broken | 07:29 |
| theadmin | MikeH: I dunno though | 07:29 |
| iliketocode | Now my logic begs the question. Why doesn't the LibreOffice writing aid section link to the Ubuntu Language settings panel? | 07:29 |
| MikeH | I just tried a dist-upgrade, nothing to do, so I guess it's complete.y | 07:29 |
| pratz | any help on this guys http://dpaste.org/YiXm8/ | 07:30 |
| theadmin | iliketocode: Well, Ubuntu tries not to modify software in weird ways if possible. | 07:30 |
| jsds | hello does 12.04 come with /usr/bin/expect installed by default? | 07:30 |
| theadmin | jsds: Nay, it's in the "expect" package. | 07:30 |
| === gstudent2 is now known as germanstudent | ||
| iliketocode | I believe this would enable a more pleasurable user experience | 07:30 |
| jsds | theadmin: thank you | 07:30 |
| MikeH | Hmmm, that's one thing. The do-release-upgrade told me it disabled some third party repositories and told me how to re-enable them. I can't see anything in sources.list but don't remember what these repositories were either. | 07:31 |
| theadmin | MikeH: Check /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list as well. | 07:32 |

| jsmith433 | Hi. How do I move the close/maximize/minimize buttons to the right of the window? Tutorials for past versions mention a metacity folder in gconf, but the folder is not there in 13.04. | 07:34 |
| iliketocode | Now leaving a user at the dead end of an unintuitive situation, that I find weird. | 07:34 |
| mar | hi. Can please tell me what Java I need to install to allow nVidia to check my card. http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Scan.aspx?lang=en-us | 07:35 |
| ankitkul1890 | #mercurial | 07:35 |
| theadmin | jsmith433: It's likely not possible (or at least not a good idea) due to the way Unity works -- the top panel merges with the window titlebar upon maximisation, and on the right there is the tray | 07:36 |
| mar | or how can I find out the card serial without breaking open laptop? | 07:36 |
| theadmin | jsmith433: This would effectively render the buttons invisible | 07:36 |
| jsmith433 | theadmin: Okay, thanks. I guess I'll be installing another DE, then. | 07:38 |
| theadmin | mar: Don't use the wobsite, use the additional drivers tool (System Settings -> Additional Drivers on 12.04, System Settings -> Software & Updates -> Additional Drivers on 12.10 and up) | 07:38 |
| theadmin | jsmith433: Xfce feels a lot like the "classic", pre-Unity Ubuntu. | 07:38 |
| mar | theadmin, 'additional drivers' doesn't work with 13.04 - see the only review | 07:39 |
| mar | theadmin, I just need to find out the card number so I know which driver to install myself | 07:39 |
| jsmith433 | theadmin: I'll try that. Thanks. | 07:39 |
| theadmin | mar: That's because the one in the Software Center, Jockey, is no longer really used by Ubuntu, they merged it with another tool. | 07:39 |
| theadmin | mar: You can find out what card you have with, say, lspci | grep -i vga | 07:39 |
| mar | thadmin, thanks! | 07:40 |

| mar | theadmin, I'm just going to try nvidia-310 'cause current (304) doesn't work. Seem reasonable? | 07:42 |
| theadmin | mar: Well, don't blame me if it breaks. I dunno. I'm with the open-source drivers myself. | 07:43 |
| mar | theadmin, you suggest I just stick to the drivers that come with the 13.04 iso? | 07:43 |
| theadmin | mar: 'tis what I did | 07:43 |
| rndio | hello, is there a pdf viewer without horrid 400% zoom limitation in ubuntu? | 07:43 |
| theadmin | I mean, they work so why not | 07:43 |
| mar | damn | 07:43 |
| rndio | I think I just tried them all :/ | 07:44 |
| mar | ok, i try 310 first though. Just in case it does want to work. No harm in trying. | 07:44 |
| theadmin | rndio: If anything, Adobe Reader has a Linux version, see their site. | 07:44 |
| theadmin | rndio: If that has the limitation, then... Then I dunno. | 07:44 |
| rndio | theadmin, well I would rather stay away from that proprietary mess. but looks like it's my only option. thanks. | 07:45 |
| theadmin | rndio: Well, I dunno. I never had to zoom in THAT much. | 07:46 |
| rndio | theadmin, schematics pdf. and hey pdf is a vector format - zooming can be unlimited by design. | 07:47 |
| === charles_ is now known as Guest40433 | ||
| theadmin | rndio: I suppose but... hamsters. | 07:50 |
| themill | rndio: xournal can zoom in to 1500%. | 07:53 |
| themill | rndio: and inkscape seems to have no limits on zoom at all. It may, however, eat your PDFs on import. | 07:54 |
| theadmin | lol | 07:54 |
| rndio | it's ok I'll feed it a copy :) | 07:55 |

| rusman | bazhang yes | 08:04 |
| rusman | bazhang where is mime types config file? | 08:04 |
| theadmin | rusman: /etc/mime.types | 08:05 |
| bazhang | rusman, for which application, what exactly are you trying to accomplish, please be clear | 08:05 |
| rusman | bazhang i installed Geany and it takes 100 association of all known doc-types | 08:06 |
| rusman | i want take it back | 08:07 |
| rusman | theadmin thanks for reply, but there is no applications in /etc/mime.types | 08:08 |
| theadmin | rusman: Remove the MimeType= line from /usr/share/applications/geany.desktop then, I suppose. | 08:08 |
| theadmin | rusman: Or modify it appropriately. | 08:08 |
| sunny_ | @admin, i was doing this FTP in my laptop in networking lab in my school. and i ended up making a directory in home folder with permission root | 08:09 |
| sunny_ | and then on reboot, it said "could not update .ICEauthority" | 08:09 |
| Wiz_KeeD | i've installed lamp on ubuntu 12.04 (vritual machine) with sudo apt-get install lamp-server^ phpmyadmin and when i access the ip of the server it shows nothing | 08:10 |
| Wiz_KeeD | :( | 08:10 |
| rusman | theadmin thank you this is cool idea!! | 08:10 |
| sunny_ | is the .ICEauthority affected by any root dir in the home folder? | 08:10 |

| ubottu | Wiz_KeeD: Avoid following your questions with a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !attitude | 08:12 |
| cfhowlett | Wiz_KeeD, lots of network heads in #ubuntu-server | 08:12 |
| Wiz_KeeD | thanks cfhowlett | 08:13 |
| sunny_ | @theadmin: I asked something about .ICEauthority | 08:13 |
| theadmin | sunny_: I know, what does that have to do with me? I don't know the answer, I don't answer. Ask the channel. | 08:13 |
| sunny_ | ok ok calm down. I thought you're the admin and you might be knowing that | 08:13 |
| theadmin | sunny_: Heh, I can see why you'd think that :P But even the channel operators don't know everything (most of them are not Ubuntu developers). I, however, am not even an operator. No offense taken though. | 08:14 |
| sunny_ | Oh I see. thanks anyways :) | 08:15 |

| * sunny_ is a roasted one | 08:19 | |
| Wiz_KeeD | i even restarted the server | 08:19 |
| somsip | Wiz_KeeD: is apache running? You are talking about connecting to http://localhost aren't you? | 08:19 |
| Wiz_KeeD | not localhost, it's a remote server on a vritual box | 08:19 |
| Wiz_KeeD | and trying to connect to it's ip on port 80 (the default one the browser uses) | 08:20 |
| somsip | Wiz_KeeD: so you are running a browser on your client and the server on VM? | 08:20 |
| Wiz_KeeD | exactly | 08:20 |
| Wiz_KeeD | i have a erp system in stalled that has a wsgi on port 8069 | 08:20 |
| Wiz_KeeD | and that works fine from here | 08:20 |
| somsip | Wiz_KeeD: ifconfig on server to make sure the IP is on your network. If it's not, restart the server using a different network type (bridged, NAT, etc) | 08:20 |
| === sergio is now known as Guest73545 | ||

| === Pricey_ is now known as Pricey | ||
| somsip | Wiz_KeeD: clearly there was a lag on the last exchange | 08:21 |
| Wiz_KeeD | ah | 08:21 |
| somsip | Wiz_KeeD: I don't know the lamp package, but maybe you should make sure a default site is setup. Maybe wget http://localhost on the server to make sure it's is actually serving | 08:22 |
| Wiz_KeeD | it works, it downloaded it | 08:23 |
| Wiz_KeeD | nice ideea, i'll keep it in mind :)) | 08:23 |
| somsip | Wiz_KeeD: so you got a 'It worked' HTMl page? | 08:23 |
| Wiz_KeeD | yes | 08:23 |
| Wiz_KeeD | i checked it with vim | 08:23 |
| Wiz_KeeD | i'm stuck on this crap | 08:24 |
| somsip | Wiz_KeeD: might stil be worth checking /etc/apache2/sites-available/default to make sure it's not got a problem, like an expected ServerName or something unexpected | 08:25 |
| cristian_c | Hi | 08:25 |
| Wiz_KeeD | idk what to look for in there somsip | 08:26 |
| ThatOneRoadie | Hey Wiz, what do you need this server for? | 08:26 |
| somsip | Wiz_KeeD: check that file and pastebin it if you want to share it | 08:26 |
| somsip | !pastebin | Wiz_KeeD | 08:26 |
| ubottu | Wiz_KeeD: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 08:26 |
| Wiz_KeeD | i know pastebin np | 08:26 |
| ThatOneRoadie | because if this is srtictly a LAMP server, I have a debian (Yeah, not ubuntu, bite me) vmdk you can use | 08:27 |
| ThatOneRoadie | really low overhead, too. i think the entire image is <200mb | 08:27 |
| ThatOneRoadie | we use these images on our servers. Load standard image, spin everything up, already ready to go. Save as host- or site-specific VM, re-spin when needed | 08:28 |
| ThatOneRoadie | 205MB | 08:28 |
| Wiz_KeeD | how do i copy all in vim somsip ? :)) | 08:28 |
| Wiz_KeeD | ah nvm | 08:29 |
| somsip | Wiz_KeeD: ggVG...oh ok | 08:29 |
| theadmin | Wiz_KeeD: ggVG"+p | 08:29 |
| theadmin | Err | 08:29 |
| ThatOneRoadie | I always though it was gg"*yG | 08:29 |
| Wiz_KeeD | http://pastie.org/7736641 | 08:29 |
| theadmin | ggVG"+y | 08:29 |
| somsip | theadmin: that's what I was aimin gat | 08:29 |
| Wiz_KeeD | also when i try to restart the server it says apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName | 08:30 |
| somsip | Wiz_KeeD: no biggie - just haven' | 08:30 |
| somsip | 't got hostname setup | 08:30 |
| ThatOneRoadie | Wiz_KeeD: That's a standard error, it just means your server's hostname doesn't match your domain name | 08:30 |
| ThatOneRoadie | However, check that your index.html file is in /var/www | 08:30 |
| Wiz_KeeD | what domain in this case? it's just a random ip address | 08:30 |
| Wiz_KeeD | yes it is ThatOneRoadie | 08:30 |
| Wiz_KeeD | that's why wget localhost worked | 08:30 |
| Wiz_KeeD | what's the next step here? | 08:31 |
| somsip | Wiz_KeeD: Not knowing lamp server package, I'm suggesting you check the default site config to make sure it's not weird | 08:31 |
| Wiz_KeeD | check for this error or... | 08:31 |
| Wiz_KeeD | it worked on other servers with no problem :( | 08:31 |
| ThatOneRoadie | Line 13, capitalize "allow from all" to "Allow from all" | 08:31 |
| Wiz_KeeD | i've done this before | 08:31 |
| ThatOneRoadie | see if that does it | 08:31 |
| Wiz_KeeD | hmm, ok | 08:32 |
| ThatOneRoadie | then restart and try again | 08:32 |
| ThatOneRoadie | i think it's implicit allow from all though on *:80 | 08:32 |
| Wiz_KeeD | hmm that error is not comming up anymore but still doesn't work | 08:33 |
| Wiz_KeeD | Jesus this is so frustrating | 08:33 |
| ThatOneRoadie | little bugs are - you would not believe what a nightmare SAN Booting WITHOUT using a DHCP Server to boot is. | 08:34 |
| ThatOneRoadie | anything in /var/log/apache? | 08:34 |
| ThatOneRoadie | or wherever it logs | 08:34 |
| Wiz_KeeD | just what i pasted at the beginning | 08:34 |
| Wiz_KeeD | [Mon Apr 29 10:27:00 2013] [notice] Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.3.10-1ubuntu3.6 with Suhosin-Patch configured -- resuming normal operations | 08:35 |

| Wiz_KeeD | the 213. | 08:36 |
| Wiz_KeeD | ip | 08:36 |
| ThatOneRoadie | yeah, your VM is probably in bridged mode | 08:36 |
| ThatOneRoadie | er | 08:36 |

| Wiz_KeeD | There goes 10-15 minutes of our lives we will never get back :( | 08:43 |
| ThatOneRoadie | or do a [ sudo ufw allow 80 ] | 08:43 |
| Wiz_KeeD | what does that do? | 08:43 |
| ThatOneRoadie | opens 80 on the firewall | 08:43 |
| ThatOneRoadie | 80 being http | 08:43 |
| Wiz_KeeD | it's blocked from an outer layer i think | 08:43 |
| Wiz_KeeD | not on the os | 08:43 |
| ThatOneRoadie | pratz: 8.8.8.8 right? | 08:44 |
| soulflare3 | sai_kumar, If it ever happens again, try that tool. I have used it many times in the past and it's helped out tremendously (espeically when you update Windows or Ubuntu and the other doesn't show up) | 08:44 |
| somsip | pratz: you put '8..8' instead of '8.8' if you want to go with that fix | 08:44 |
| pratz | ThatOneRoadie: yes, that google dns , correct | 08:44 |
| pratz | somsip: that was just a typo | 08:44 |
| ThatOneRoadie | as long as you put 8.8.8.8 and not 8.8.8..8 :) | 08:44 |

| usr13_ | sw Is that a question or an answer? | 08:49 |
| sw | usr13_, We're in #ubuntu so obviously it's Ubuntu. | 08:49 |
| juniour | cristiana_c which one freezes shutdown or restart ?? | 08:50 |
| ThatOneRoadie | Wiz_KeeD: [ sudo ufw status verbose ] | 08:50 |

| ponsfrilus | Hi all. I wonder what are the apps behind the screenshot here: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/features/more-apps | 08:54 |
| Mayank | Hi, I have two servers, both running Ubuntu 12.01. Server B is behind a firewall and cannot be accessed outside the institution. If I need to scp to Server B it has to be through Server A. It makes it very difficult to upload files. Is there any way I could handle this? Tunneling sftp traffic? But how? Any leads? | 08:54 |
| cfhowlett | !norwegian | 08:54 |
| Wiz_KeeD | 56 ThatOneRoadie | 08:54 |
| Lachezar | ThatOneRoadie: Nothing to do with the Path, more to do with the 'Alternatives' infrastructure (somehow it has lower preference on the newer Java). | 08:55 |
| Wiz_KeeD | 172.16.21.56 | 08:55 |
| pratz | somsip: ThatOneRoadie tried that but the same error again | 08:55 |
| === jagger|away is now known as jagger | ||
| ThatOneRoadie | Wiz_KeeD: 172.16.anything.anything is a private network, and needs to be port forwarded. do you have GUI on this VM or is it all CLI? | 08:55 |
| cristian_c | juniour, any ideas? | 08:56 |
| Wiz_KeeD | I still need to see what the admin is doing before proceeding | 08:56 |
| usr13_ | Mayank: What makes you think http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/features/more-apps is a screenshot? | 08:56 |
| somsip | pratz: sorry, I'm out | 08:57 |
| Lachezar | Mayank: It's not that hard: "ssh internet_server -L 22222:otherserver:22", and then "scp -p 2222 localhost" | 08:57 |
| === jagger is now known as jagger|away | ||
| usr13_ | Mayank: Punch a whole in the firewall. | 08:57 |
| llutz | scp -P uppercase-p for Port | 08:58 |
| ponsfrilus | usr13_: I meant the space application in the picture | 08:58 |
| ThatOneRoadie | Wiz_KeeD: If you can get the admin to put that VM on Bridged mode (Tell him it needs a public IP address), then it should work | 08:58 |
| Mayank | usr13_: How? | 08:58 |
| ThatOneRoadie | but if you're trying to go to Http://213.x.x.x, that server won't see it unless it's PROGRAMMED to see it | 08:58 |
| usr13_ | Mayank: Forward port 22 to server B | 08:58 |
| Wiz_KeeD | it should work because the 8069 webinterface works | 08:58 |
| ThatOneRoadie | 8069 might be forwarded though, and 80 might not be | 08:59 |
| sai_kumar | ponsfrilus : i see Stellarium (or could be celestia), Steam, Ubuntu Software center in the page | 08:59 |
| Wiz_KeeD | yeah, he had to add my ip to the whitelist | 08:59 |
| Wiz_KeeD | and now everything works, including phpmyadmin | 08:59 |
| ponsfrilus | sai_kumar: thanks I'm gonna check | 08:59 |
| Wiz_KeeD | thanks a lot for helping out ThatOneRoadie | 08:59 |
| Wiz_KeeD | what a pal :D | 08:59 |
| Mayank | usr13_: Yeah, but I do not have sudo account for Server A, will it require that? Can something be done with my account only? | 08:59 |
| ThatOneRoadie | No worries :) | 08:59 |
| Wiz_KeeD | and sorry for wasting time with this issue :( | 08:59 |
| ThatOneRoadie | If you want, I can send you the link to our LAMP stacks | 08:59 |

| cristian_c | Hi | 09:00 |
| cristian_c | How can I switch audio from mono to stereo? | 09:01 |
| cristian_c | Any ideas? | 09:01 |
| ThatOneRoadie | They also have a bunch of other pre-configured VM images, like etherpad, gitlab, and a Minecraft server. | 09:01 |
| usr13_ | Mayank: No. You'll have to do port forwarding on the server, (if the situation is as you said). | 09:01 |
| ThatOneRoadie | Just point ESXi at the vmdk image and go, it's really that simple | 09:02 |
| usr13_ | Mayank: What kind of firewall is it? | 09:03 |
| Amnuriak | Oh sorry, link earlier was the wrong one. Please see this for my issue with graphics driver: http://askubuntu.com/questions/285354/graphics-driver-for-ati-firepro-2770-not-working-properly-on-12-04 | 09:03 |
| Mayank | usr13_: not sure. It does not allow port 22 connections from outside. | 09:03 |
| Wiz_KeeD | ahhh vm images with the installation | 09:03 |
| Wiz_KeeD | yeah i had messed something up real bad ThatOneRoadie and i had to format everything | 09:03 |

| usr13_ | cristian_c: Or is the source file mono? | 09:05 |
| Mayank | usr13_: How about letting a ssh run on server A, that keeps connected a tunnel to server B? But I am not sure how to do this/ is this what you were referring to? | 09:06 |
| usr13_ | cristian_c: Available sound configs can be accessed via alsamixer | 09:06 |
| javier_ | hi! I'm trying to install ubuntu to a new used but we find problems. After the fresh install, we can't upgrade the system. In the upgrade manager, we found an error and using terminal, after "sudo apt-get update", it says "mkdir can't be made". Any help? thanks! | 09:07 |
| usr13_ | Mayank: Where is "Server A"? | 09:08 |
| cfhowlett | javier_, md5sum to ensure good ISO? | 09:08 |
| usr13_ | Mayank: If you can access Server A from Server B then do it from Server B | 09:08 |
| javier_ | cfhowlett, mmm, I'm afraid I don't know how to make that. Could you describe it shortly? thanks! | 09:09 |
| cfhowlett | !md5sum|javier_, | 09:09 |
| ubottu | javier_,: 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 | 09:09 |
| Mayank | usr13_: Server A is outside the firewall. Server B is behind the firewall. I need to access B from A. I have the root account for B, but not for A. | 09:09 |
| Silox| | Hello there, upgrading to Ubuntu 13.04 borked my online accounts. I had a few extensions working with these accounts (gmail, calendar, ...) and they've all stopped working. E.g. the calendar extension throws: dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.OnlineAccounts was not provided by any .service files | 09:10 |
| usr13_ | Mayank: Then you will have to do port forwarding on the firewall. | 09:10 |
| usr13_ | Mayank: Are there *any* ports forwarded to Server B, (through the firewall)? | 09:11 |
| Mayank | usr13_: Yes port :80 | 09:12 |
| cristian_c | usr13_, a classic builtin sound card | 09:12 |
| cristian_c | usr13_, Now, it's in mono mode | 09:12 |
| cfhowlett | javier_, mm. factoid bot appears asleep. anyway, md5sum invokes a hash check to verify that completeness and accuracy of the download. http://wiki.ubuntu.com.cn/UbuntuHelp:HowToMD5SUM | 09:13 |
| cfhowlett | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM | 09:13 |
| llutz | Mayank: "ssh -fN -L 2222:host-B:22 host-A", and then "scp -P 2222 file localhost:/path" to copy stuff to host-B | 09:13 |
| cfhowlett | javier_, note: this only works on the downloaded ISO. To verify your boot disk/usb, run "check disk for errors" upon boot | 09:13 |
| cristian_c | *it's set | 09:13 |
| usr13_ | Mayank: Only 80. Well, I suppose you could tell Server A's sshd to listen on port 80 | 09:13 |
| Mayank | usr13_: Do not have the root access for Server A | 09:13 |
| javier_ | cfhowlett, I tried md5sum and it seems the file is fine | 09:13 |
| javier_ | cfhowlett, this might be a clue: if I try to install something (sudo apt-get install synapse) I get this: "sudo: impossible to make mkdir /var/lib/sudo/ernesto: filesystem only reading", and then asks for password | 09:14 |
| usr13_ | Mayank: llutz has a suggestion, (one that I don't quite understand, but...) | 09:15 |
| cristian_c | sai_kumar, Where can I switch for the app? | 09:15 |
| cristian_c | usr13_, I tried with several files | 09:15 |
| Mayank | llutz: Can you be a bit more clear? What do I need to scp to localhost refers to? Thanks! | 09:16 |
| Mayank | usr13_: Thanks | 09:16 |
| usr13_ | cristian_c: What does alsamixer say about it? | 09:16 |
| luk01 | ifconfig reports that eth0 has an IP, but ls /dev/eth* gives: "No such file or directory". I'm in a VM with 1 network card. What's the network card's name? | 09:16 |
| cristian_c | usr13_, ok, but I don't know how to switch in alsamixer from mono to stereo | 09:16 |
| luk01 | on a Raring Live CD. | 09:16 |
| AZkennett | I can't get my system to recognize my network card. | 09:16 |
| llutz | Mayank: if you established the tunnel (ssh -L....), you just use "scp -P2222 whatever-file localhost:path" to copy things to host-A | 09:16 |
| javier_ | looks to me like we don't have permissions for doing anything | 09:17 |
| cristian_c | usr13_, I can post a screenshot | 09:17 |
| usr13_ | cristian_c: I don't either. (I've never had a mono sound card.) | 09:17 |

| llutz | Mayank: localhost port 2222 tunnels scp to host-a, which forwards it to host-b:22 sorry mixed the hosts | 09:18 |
| Mayank | llutz: localhost:path will be the path to the host-A (behind the firewall)? | 09:18 |
| llutz | Mayank: yes, instead of "scp file host-B:/my/destination/path" (which you cannot reach from outside) you use "scp -P2222 localhost:/my/destination/path" | 09:19 |

| starkiller | Thanks anyways xD im doing way better than with xp and windows 7 | 10:13 |
| papul | there is this tool to compile normal sorce packages to a deb file. What is it? | 10:15 |
| DJones | !checkinstall | papul | 10:15 |
| ubottu | papul: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 10:15 |
| usr13_ | cristian_c: http://www.audiocheck.net/audiotests_stereo.php | 10:18 |
| usr13_ | cristian_c: Test ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ | 10:18 |
| cristian_c | usr13_, I'm trying to undestand how to do | 10:20 |
| cristian_c | :( | 10:20 |
| cristian_c | *understand | 10:20 |
| cristian_c | If your left speaker plays right, it's wrong! Swap your speakers - or better, your speaker connections - and you're done. | 10:20 |
| cristian_c | I'm trying to convert a stereo file to mono with audacity | 10:21 |
| usr13_ | cristian_c: Did you click to play the audio files? | 10:21 |
| cristian_c | *too | 10:21 |
| cristian_c | in 'The test files'? | 10:21 |
| usr13_ | cristian_c: Are you telling me that we have been trying to solve the wrong problem? | 10:22 |
| andrea_ | what is the symbol " ./ " that you use to execute scripts? | 10:22 |

| cristian_c | usr13_, no, I can't understand how to do | 10:23 |
| usr13_ | andrea_: It's called "./" ;) | 10:23 |
| cristian_c | http://www.audiocheck.net/audiotests_stereo.php | 10:23 |
| andrea_ | usr13: yes but is there a special reason for it? And do i have to call it "dot forward slash"? | 10:23 |
| shvchk | Hello. Anyone having issue with AutoFS ignoring direct mounts in 13.04 (12.10 worked fine, same config files)? | 10:23 |
| usr13_ | cristian_c: "The test files" (Click to play them.) | 10:23 |
| usr13_ | andrea_: I don't know what you should call it. | 10:24 |
| cristian_c | usr13_, I clicked 'Left' | 10:24 |
| cristian_c | then Right | 10:24 |
| usr13_ | andrea_: but ./ or sh file.sh should do the trick. | 10:24 |
| usr13_ | cristian_c: And did the audio come out of the Left and then Right speakers? | 10:25 |
| usr13_ | andrea_: I'm not sure I understand the question. | 10:25 |
| cristian_c | usr13_, no audio | 10:25 |
| cristian_c | usr13_, I've converted an .mp3 fiole to mono | 10:25 |
| cristian_c | *file | 10:25 |

| cristian_c | usr13_, I've got a mono file | 10:26 |
| fr0gger_ | cock | 10:26 |
| andrea_ | usr13_: do i always have to be on the current directory? | 10:26 |
| cristian_c | usr13_, i'm playing the mono file | 10:26 |
| DJones | fr0gger_: Mind the language, please keep it family friendly | 10:26 |
| usr13_ | andrea_: No, but if you are not in the current directory, you'll have to use path. But it's easier to just go to the directory where the file is. | 10:28 |
| usr13_ | andrea_: What exactly are you wanting to do? (What is your end goal?) | 10:29 |
| usr13_ | andrea_: Are we trying to solve a specific problem? Or are we just trying to figure out what can be done with executable files? | 10:30 |
| usr13_ | andrea_: Is there one that is not working for you? | 10:30 |
| Mrokii | How does the entry in fstab have to look (for an internal HD) so that it is not mounted with root-access only? What I mean is: I have successfully created an fstab entry for an HD (mountpoint in /media), but it seems that all the folders are owned by root. | 10:32 |

| nabblet | or is there a channel for that? | 10:35 |
| cristian_c | usr13_, no, to solve the problem | 10:36 |
| cristian_c | usr13_, I've already converted the file | 10:36 |
| usr13_ | andrea_: If the file is in /home/andrea/bin and you are in /home/andrea you would can use command bin/./executable-file or /home/andrea/bin/./executable-file #Either one will do the job. | 10:36 |
| usr13_ | cristian_c: I don't know. | 10:37 |
| cristian_c | :( | 10:38 |
| usr13_ | andrea_: (... that is, if the file has the executable bit set.) | 10:39 |

| bennypr0fane | ActionParsnip, apart from the fact that I *should* not, is it poissible to jump a release? doing it in 2 steps will require twice the time, right? | 11:56 |
| ActionParsnip | kulagrad: you don't need quotes around the filename | 11:56 |
| kulagrad | ok | 11:56 |

| kulagrad | ActionParsnip: ty | 11:57 |
| ActionParsnip | bennypr0fane: yes, but you can only upgrade to the next release, or from LTS to LTS | 11:57 |
| Myrtti | bennypr0fane: but since you plan to upgrade the whole thing, the supported method is, as said, through 12.10. do-release-upgrade -d upgrades to the developmental release - and you don't want to do that. | 11:57 |

| ActionParsnip | kulagrad: its a different channel, specifically for bash | 12:00 |
| Myrtti | bennypr0fane: because the link you supplied used it as a method of getting (at the time of the writing of the article - a developmental release) Raring | 12:00 |

| === KindOne- is now known as KindOne | ||
| bennypr0fane | but then why is officially recommended to use the -d option. That page is general info about upgrading any release to the next, so I'd assume it should recommend stable...? | 12:05 |
| k1l | bennypr0fane: -d is for development upgrades | 12:05 |
| bennypr0fane | k1l we've established that already. Now, I'm trying to understand why that is recommended in the wiki for a standard upgrade procedure. I also tried the GUI, which offers 12.10 | 12:06 |
| Tatuus | Hello, started Ubuntu 13.04 up, and arriving to desktop, there's no launcher at all on the left... Now what ? | 12:08 |
| bennypr0fane | this instruction with the -d option is found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu#Upgrading_from_last_release | 12:08 |
| bennypr0fane | anyways, if I just leave out the -d option or use the gui update manager instead, going first from 12.04 to 12.10, then from 12.10 to 13.04, it should be fine, right? | 12:10 |
| k1l | bennypr0fane: since its a wiki someone updated the information since 13.04 is released but didnt change the -d option | 12:11 |
| Ben64 | bennypr0fane: you know you can stay on 12.04 and go directly to 14.04? | 12:12 |
| jony | ActionParsnip, the other PC it's in another office, and I'm too lazy to go there if I want to work on it | 12:14 |
| bennypr0fane | k1l I was saying it shouldn't contain info specific to any release at all, since that page is not release-specific | 12:14 |
| bennypr0fane | Ben64 is that a typo? | 12:14 |
| k1l | bennypr0fane: it was release specific. i changed it now | 12:15 |
| Ben64 | bennypr0fane: no | 12:15 |
| k1l | Ben64: lubuntu dont do lts releases at atll | 12:15 |
| Ben64 | k1l: oh, weird | 12:16 |
| Ben64 | k1l: i thought it was all the same? cause i'm on 12.04 lts and i can "apt-get install lubuntu-desktop" would that make it not lts? | 12:16 |
| bennypr0fane | k1l you mean this page was release specific until an ago when I first read it? :-D what's "atll"? | 12:17 |
| felon | can someone help me get my display detected in ubuntu13.04 | 12:17 |
| bennypr0fane | Ben64 if you're on Ubuntu 12.04, it's LTS. If you chanfe the desktop environment, that doesn't change its end of life | 12:18 |
| bennypr0fane | Lubuntu, on the other hand, is never LTS | 12:18 |
| k1l | Ben64: the lubuntu specific packages dont have lts support. but maybe they change that after ubuntu changed their support timeframes | 12:18 |
| bennypr0fane | they even stepped down to 9 months support per release only, it seems | 12:18 |
| k1l | bennypr0fane: you are wrong on that | 12:18 |
| bennypr0fane | k1l what exactly | 12:19 |
| susana | hello guys | 12:20 |
| k1l | bennypr0fane: just look into the editing history of that wiki page yourself. you will see what was going on there | 12:20 |
| Ben64 | so all the ubuntu stuff would still be updated, just not lxde, lxterminal and the other lubuntu stuff? | 12:20 |

| bennypr0fane | k1l maybe you should change the 18-months-life-cycle bit as well - if this info is correct: http://lubuntu.lafibre.info/ then 13.04 lasts only 9 months. maybe that's jsut for now and future policy for Lubuntu hasn't been decided yet | 12:25 |

| PatrickDickey | I will say that I took the plunge and upgraded my main desktop to Lubuntu 13,04 this weekend (through the Update Manager). One good thing is, it saw my Fedora installation, without my having to mount the partitions. One bad, and it's not Lubuntu's fault, I couldn't boot into anything but single user mode. I had to remove the AMD beta drivers in order to boot up. | 12:26 |
| DJones | Jamiem93: If its Ubuntu related, feel free to ask here | 12:26 |
| PatrickDickey | Jamiem93: Yes it is. What issues or questions are you needing help with? | 12:26 |
| Jamiem93 | I don't know how to ask this so I'll just explain what I did. | 12:26 |
| MonkeyDust | Jamiem93 in one line | 12:27 |
| scarra3 | I am running ubuntu 13.04-amd64 and I can't seem to sync my music onto my iphone running iOS 5.X it says there is not enough space but I have 9.2 GB free. | 12:28 |
| Jamiem93 | Last night, I burned the lubuntu image to a disk and installed it to my laptop. When I turned the laptop back on a little while later to update the software, there was an error. I then ran windows 7 to install that and remove the partition that I created when I installed Lubuntu. Now everytime I boot up the laptop, there is a black flashing screen and I cannot boot from any cd. | 12:28 |
| k1l | bennypr0fane: thats what i told you. the future plans are not decided yet. i dont get why you make that big drama out of that here | 12:29 |
| PatrickDickey | Jamiem93: The Windows 7 installation completed successfully? | 12:29 |
| Jamiem93 | No, it couldn't install over the partition because of the ext. | 12:30 |
| Jamiem93 | Now I can't boot any cd from the laptop without it sitting on a black flashing screen for an hour until the "EDD: 8000 error" appears. | 12:30 |
| PatrickDickey | Jamiem93: If you go into BIOS on the laptop, is the CD-ROM set to boot before the first hard drive? Or when you start booting, is there a menu key (like F12) that allows you to select where you want to boot from? | 12:30 |
| Jamiem93 | Yes, I had the BIOS boot from CD to begin with and I've tried booting manually using F12. | 12:31 |
| Jamiem93 | I was able to run gParted from a live cd to remove the partition entirely which left a dev/sda unallocated space but the mbr is still grub I believe? | 12:31 |
| scarra3 | I am running ubuntu 13.04-amd64 and I can't seem to sync my music onto my iphone running iOS 5.X it says there is not enough space but I have 9.2 GB free. | 12:32 |
| Tatuus | any help on the launcher issue? i have only empty desktop showing .. on the ccsm, unity is enabled | 12:32 |
| l057c0d3r_ | well i'm actually getting somewhere now :-) | 12:32 |
| bennypr0fane | k1l no drama. Just suggesting to update the wiki to eb accurate. actually, I'm about to do that now, maybe in a foot note. If you are positive that there's no conclusive status info about the life cycle, I'd add that as well | 12:33 |
| Jamiem93 | Would I be able to run gParted and delete the grub MBR using the terminal? | 12:33 |
| PatrickDickey | Jamiem93: Now that you removed the partition with Gparted, can you boot the Windows 7 DVD? | 12:33 |
| Jamiem93 | No. | 12:33 |
| Jamiem93 | I can't boot any cd. | 12:33 |
| bennypr0fane | Jamiem you could do that with parted, but not gparted | 12:34 |
| l057c0d3r_ | found this amazing gnome-shell theme.... however the message tray and notifications were clear and text well.. almost impossible to see.. after 10 min of searching through the .css file that came with the theme.. i was able to make the message tray a transparent blue gray to match the top bar.. and actually made the notifications match all other popups on the theme | 12:34 |
| Jamiem93 | All I can do is use gparted, otherwise no other livecd boots. | 12:34 |
| l057c0d3r_ | maybe i should start making theme's :-p what i really need to do is start working on porting my fav extension "bolt" over to 3.8 | 12:34 |
| compdoc | jony,you have to install gnome fallback | 12:34 |
| bennypr0fane | l057c0d3r, interesting | 12:34 |
| [olli] | re ppl.. | 12:34 |
| bennypr0fane | I'd like to make changes to my favorite them too | 12:34 |
| PatrickDickey | Jamiem93: The Windows 7 shouldn't be a Live CD. One other thing you can try is burn a new Ubuntu CD. When you do the burn, choose the slowest speed possible for the burn speed. | 12:35 |
| bennypr0fane | l057c0d3r, but haven't succeeded so far | 12:35 |
| Jamiem93 | I've tried that. When I boot that from the laptop, it goes to a black flashing screen. | 12:35 |
| neirpyc | So I followed the guide on the Ubuntu site for creating a USB installer for OS X but I am not able to boot from the drive on my Macbook Pro. Anyone know why this is happening? | 12:35 |
| Jamiem93 | It's still showing Linux based errors when the partition is empty. How is that possible? | 12:35 |
| === varun is now known as varunendra | ||
| k1l | bennypr0fane: sry but your are not listening at all. i alreaady updated the wiki. while you were still making confusion in here | 12:36 |
| l057c0d3r_ | bennypr0fane, thinking about submitting my corrected ( imho ) gnome-shell.css file to the developer of the theme.... since it seems to match better.. | 12:36 |
| l057c0d3r_ | maybe they will just upload it to there theme as default | 12:36 |
| PatrickDickey | Jamiem93: Because the mbr is still set up for GRUB. My guess is that it's not booting from the Windows 7 DVD or Live CD's but actually trying to boot from the hard drive. | 12:36 |
| Jamiem93 | What can I do? | 12:36 |
| izx | what is the diff bet UXterm and Term terminals?? | 12:37 |
| Jamiem93 | Could I try mbrfix? | 12:37 |
| l057c0d3r_ | bennypr0fane, what kind of changes are you wanting to make.... and u running gnome-shell.. i might be able to point you in the right direction.. or at least give you a hint on what text to search for in the file :-p | 12:37 |
| PatrickDickey | Jamiem93: Start the laptop and go into the Boot menu (F12 usually). | 12:37 |
| mar_ | q | 12:37 |
| mar_ | q | 12:37 |
| Jamiem93 | Yep? | 12:37 |
| PatrickDickey | Ok, which CD do you have in the laptop? | 12:38 |
| Jamiem93 | The live CD would be Ubuntu 12.0.4 | 12:38 |
| l057c0d3r_ | mar_, you ever get anywhere with that driver issue you were having? | 12:38 |
| mar_ | how can I logout from a terminal? | 12:38 |
| PatrickDickey | Jamiem93: take it out, and put the Windows 7 DVD in. We'll get that going first, then put ubuntu on after. | 12:38 |
| mar_ | l057c0d3r_, kindof | 12:39 |
| l057c0d3r_ | mar_ type exit | 12:39 |
| Jamiem93 | That's the problem. | 12:39 |
| Jamiem93 | I can't boot any cd. | 12:39 |
| jony | compdoc, what's that? | 12:39 |
| Jamiem93 | The only cd I can boot is gParted. | 12:39 |
| l057c0d3r_ | mar_ and to reboot from term type sudo reboot | 12:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Jamiem93: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? | 12:39 |
| Jamiem93 | I'm burning another fresh ubuntu copy to try. | 12:39 |
| compdoc | jony, what os is running on the machine you use to remote to ubuntu? | 12:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Jamiem93: did you burn as slowly as possible, and not with the Windows inbuilt CD burner | 12:39 |
| l057c0d3r_ | mar_ or are you on your desktop with a term opened? | 12:39 |
| PatrickDickey | Jamiem93: Patience. If you've got the laptop running at the boot menu, put the Windows 7 DVD in, and choose the option to boot from CD-ROM. | 12:40 |
| Jamiem93 | I used imgburn. | 12:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Jamiem93: did you MD5 test the ISO? | 12:40 |
| Jamiem93 | Yes. | 12:40 |
| bennypr0fane | l057c0d3r, how exactly did you achieve that? What I want to change is a GTK+ theme though, not Gnome shell, which should work the same | 12:40 |
| ActionParsnip | Jamiem93: burn as slowly as imgburn will allow you | 12:40 |

| PatrickDickey | mar_: What video card do you have in the computer? | 12:41 |
| l057c0d3r_ | bennypr0fane, let me look in a few of my gtk+ themes im using.. and see if i can find out a little about them and how they are layed out | 12:41 |
| mar_ | l057c0d3r, I have it set to autologin, so how can I logout of unity and log back in with unity or cinnamon or something? | 12:41 |
| PatrickDickey | Good deal Jamiem93. Let us know how the installation goes then. | 12:41 |

| l057c0d3r_ | might not work with out the task bar though | 12:42 |
| bennypr0fane | k1l geez, what's your problem. I was just trying to be helpful by pointing out an error, what's the harm in that? confusion is caused by inaccurate info in the wiki, and it's great that you fixed that. | 12:42 |
| ActionParsnip | jony: yes, but what will you do on the remote desktop once connected? | 12:42 |
| k1l | *sigh* | 12:43 |
| ActionParsnip | scarra3: what is the issue please, I think I missed you post it | 12:43 |
| scarra3 | I am running ubuntu 13.04-amd64 and I can't seem to sync my music onto my iphone running iOS 5.X it says there is not enough space but I have 9.2 GB free. | 12:43 |

| compdoc | jony, gnome-session-fallback puts a desktop that works with vnc. the desktop on 12.11 and 13.04 changed. | 12:43 |
| bennypr0fane | k1l geez, what's your problem. I was just trying to be helpful by pointing out an error, what's the harm in that? confusion is caused by inaccurate info in the wiki, and it's great that you fixed that. | 12:43 |
| vnc786 | hello all !! | 12:43 |
| ActionParsnip | scarra3: when you last unplugged the device, did you use the safe removal feature in your OS? | 12:43 |
| jony | the remote PC has two network cards: one will be in my network, the other will be on a different network which has a ubuntu server. I want to connect via browser to that server's phpmyadmin webpage | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | jony: then why do you need vnc, if there is phpmyadmin running? | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | jony: setup a masquerade and you can browse through the system, using it like a router | 12:44 |
| mar_ | l057c0d3r, I think I can say I don't have card issues any more | 12:44 |
| k1l | bennypr0fane: last warning to stop that drama. its all sorted out already | 12:45 |
| scarra3 | actionparsnip: Its not about the safe removal I plug it in an it just doesn't want to copy over | 12:45 |
| vnc786 | 1. installed mini.iso 2. then ubuntu-desktop(without recommends) 3. now able to get GUI but not able to login thru GUI | 12:45 |
| jony | ActionParsnip, I want remote desktop too | 12:45 |
| BluesKaj | HIyas all | 12:45 |
| ActionParsnip | scarra3: if you don't safe remove, it may mark the storage as unclean mounted as caches haven't been sync'd. There is a reason that feature exists | 12:45 |
| mar_ | l057c0d3r, I'm going to try remove unity and put it back | 12:45 |
| ActionParsnip | jony: but why? | 12:45 |
| mar_ | if that's possible | 12:46 |
| scarra3 | ActionParsnip: What can I do to fix that? | 12:46 |
| [olli] | I've a question related to encryption of user homes. I know that data encryption password is encrypted using user password. Once the user changes password itself the data encryption password is reencrypted w/ his password. If this is done by root - no reencryption and data is inaccessible via new password. The question is do I undestand right and it's enough to change password for him to old one (when all worked) and the data will be accessible again? I guess | 12:46 |
| [olli] | the salt generated when password is hashed may become a problem, but I didn't dig the situation enough. | 12:46 |
| l057c0d3r_ | mar_ wait | 12:46 |
| bennypr0fane | l057c0d3r, clearbird is the gtk+ theme that has almost no contrast between font and background when an element is higlighted in file manager | 12:46 |
| l057c0d3r_ | mar_ have you tried unity --reset | 12:46 |
| ActionParsnip | scarra3: plug it into a windows system (i imagine you use that for itunes etc). You can then eject the device properly and then retry in Ubuntu | 12:46 |
| l057c0d3r_ | in term | 12:46 |
| jony | ActionParsnip, I want to backup database too frequently in separate files | 12:46 |
| mar_ | l057c0d3r_, it's deprecated and won't work | 12:46 |
| l057c0d3r_ | ahh i see | 12:47 |
| scarra3 | ActionParsnip: I don't have any windows systems this is my only computer | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | jony: then install openssh-server or samba and you can remote access the files, you don't need VNC for taht | 12:47 |
| l057c0d3r_ | bennypr0fane, so u basicly cant see if its hilighted or not.... or when hilighted it vanishes? | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | jony: openssh-server will give an SFTP server so you can connect to your fikes over the web securely as well | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | jony: nautilus can mount SFTP too, it can also mount samba | 12:47 |
| mar_ | bye for now | 12:47 |
| ActionParsnip | jony: again, no need for vnc | 12:48 |
| compdoc | jony, having a remote desktop is pretty important to many ppl | 12:48 |
| jony | ok, but the second network (where is the server too), the Internet connection is not allowed | 12:48 |
| l057c0d3r_ | mar_ after you removed your binary driver.. did you reinstall the open one? | 12:48 |
| ActionParsnip | jony: you can use an ssh tunnel and then pipe your web traffic down the tunnel using localhost:someport as a system wide proxy | 12:48 |
| jony | the port forwarding is not allowed too.... | 12:49 |
| [olli] | anyone familiar w/ ubuntu user home encryption? | 12:49 |
| ActionParsnip | jony: its not port forwarding, its ssh tunnelling | 12:49 |
| bennypr0fane | l0 no, when highlighted, you can't read the font bcs it's almost same colour as background | 12:50 |
| bennypr0fane | l057c0d3r, | 12:51 |
| ActionParsnip | jony: ssh -L 2222:82.9.34.77:3128 user@remoteserver you now have an ssh tunnel, you can run Squid on the other system and all the traffic you pipe down localhost:2222 will hit squid on the remote PC | 12:51 |
| zetheroo | how to enable dual pane in 13.04 ... in Nautilus ... anyone? | 12:52 |
| l057c0d3r_ | mar_ i would open synaptic up and go to additional drivers.. in the settings/preferene area and make sure its using vouveau.... | 12:52 |
| l057c0d3r_ | u did say it broke after installing binary drivers right | 12:52 |
| k1l | zetheroo: there is no dualpane anymore | 12:52 |
| MonkeyDust | zetheroo I miss that option too | 12:53 |
| l057c0d3r_ | k bennypr0fane one sec.. let me see if i can find what u need to change.. | 12:53 |
| jony | ActionParsnip, so once again I describe my situation: I have my PC with ubuntu desktop, I can connect to the other network only via internet. On that network I have ubuntu desktop consoles and an ubuntu server. I want: 1. to connect from my desktop PC to that server's phpmyadmin webpage, 2. I want filesharing | 12:53 |
| vnc786 | 1. installed mini.iso 2. then ubuntu-desktop(without recommends) 3. now able to get GUI but not able to login thru GUI | 12:53 |
| zetheroo | k1l: No way!!! kidding right!? :P | 12:53 |
| k1l | vnc786: lightdm installed? | 12:53 |
| vnc786 | yes | 12:54 |
| zetheroo | is there any way to get dual pane back? | 12:54 |
| k1l | zetheroo: that is no joke. just ask the gnome guys why they removed that from the latest gnome3 nautilus | 12:54 |
| PatrickDickey | zetheroo: Nope, it's gone. In fact "nautilus" is gone too. it's "files" now, and follows the Gnome3 setup, which means no dual-pane and some other features are gone too. | 12:54 |
| zetheroo | >:o Man that pisses me off!! | 12:54 |
| howlymowly | hi poeple... short question: is it possible to check which packages of my system take up the most disk space? | 12:54 |
| ActionParsnip | jony: openssh-server will give a secure file access method | 12:54 |
| vnc786 | k1l: also not able to get tty except from f1 | 12:54 |
| l057c0d3r_ | bennypr0fane, go into where your theme is stored.. most likely /usr/share/themes or something like that | 12:54 |
| zetheroo | dual pane is an absolute must for me | 12:55 |
| zetheroo | and I know several other people who will be contacting my soon about this issue ... argh | 12:55 |
| jony | ActionParsnip, but that server won't be connected phisically to the internet | 12:55 |
| l057c0d3r_ | fidn the gtk.css file.. and look through there for this @define-color theme_selected_fg_color and change the color behind it to what you want it to be.. | 12:55 |
| l057c0d3r_ | will have to restart your desktop for it to take effecdt though | 12:55 |
| bennypr0fane | l057c0d3r, I made a screenshot: https://bennypr0fane.trovebox.com/p/8/token-1d6ff1d26a (for reason it's upside down) see the "root" folder? you can hardly discern the font | 12:55 |
| k1l | zetheroo: again: ubuntu is the wrong adress for that issue :/ | 12:56 |
| l057c0d3r_ | and might have to have root access if its a preinstalled theme and not one youj have in your ~/.theme folder | 12:56 |
| PatrickDickey | howlymowly: Packages, I'm not sure. But, you can install an application called baobab, which will show you what files and directories take up the most space. | 12:56 |
| zetheroo | are there any other good file managers for Ubuntu with dual pane!? | 12:56 |
| snuggl | zetheroo: loads | 12:56 |
| ActionParsnip | jony: so how will you connect to vnc if you cannot connect to the SFTP server? | 12:56 |
| snuggl | zetheroo: i used gnome commander | 12:57 |
| zetheroo | ok | 12:57 |
| zetheroo | will check it out | 12:57 |
| howlymowly | PatrickDickey: I made a "not clean" upgrade to 13.04. by "not clean" I mean that I accidentally cancelled the upgrade progress before removing old packages | 12:57 |
| snuggl | its more like NC | 12:57 |
| === lance is now known as Guest22881 | ||
| PatrickDickey | howlymowly: So, you've got extra packages that you don't need? Or is there another problem with the install? | 12:58 |
| jony | ActionParsnip, one Lubuntu console from that network has internet connected via the second network card | 12:58 |
| l057c0d3r_ | bennypr0fane, and the @define-color highlighted_border value will change the border | 12:58 |
| bennypr0fane | l057c0d3r, @define-color theme_selected_fg_color is that the font color? the color is specified by a number, right? how do I know which number I need for my preferred color? | 12:58 |
| === chop1n is now known as chop1n[afk] | ||
| vnc786 | after installing mini.iso how do i get GUI | 12:58 |
| PatrickDickey | jony: Does the server have an Internet connection? | 12:59 |
| ActionParsnip | vnc786: sudo apt-get install lxde or: sudo apt-get install xfce4 for something light. If you want the full Unity session: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 12:59 |
| * PatrickDickey realizes that sounds like an idiotic question.... | 12:59 | |
| l057c0d3r_ | @define-color theme_selected_bg_color and this value in the theme will change the color of the actual hilight | 12:59 |
| jony | PatrickDickey, no, only an Lubuntu console has from that network on the second network card | 12:59 |
| vnc786 | ActionParsnip: i have done this installed(lightdm, ubuntu-desktop no recommends ) | 12:59 |
| howlymowly | PatrickDickey: yeah I guess so... I did "apt-get autoremove" but that only removed 50 packages. but before the upgrade to 13.04 the upgrade process told me, ~300 packages are becoming obsolete | 12:59 |
| jony | m | 12:59 |
| ActionParsnip | vnc786: ok then reboot and lightdm should kick up at startup | 12:59 |
| PatrickDickey | howlymowly: You could try sudo apt-get autoclean also. | 13:00 |
| l057c0d3r_ | bennypr0fane, if you open a program like gimp.. or any image editing program | 13:00 |
| howlymowly | PatrickDickey: yeah did that too, already | 13:00 |
| l057c0d3r_ | you can get the rgb numbers and or a hex number | 13:00 |
| l057c0d3r_ | say for text when hilight change.. this is a hex example @define-color theme_selected_fg_color #ffffff; | 13:01 |
| l057c0d3r_ | and this is a rgb example | 13:01 |
| PatrickDickey | howlymowly: Did the upgrade say that all 300 were being removed? I ask, because I had a different number for what was obsolete, and what it actually removed. | 13:01 |
| l057c0d3r_ | @define-color theme_selected_fg_color rgb (255, 255, 255) | 13:01 |
| l057c0d3r_ | both would give you the same color | 13:01 |
| vnc786 | ActionParsnip: i am getting only tty1 when i reboot i am getting GUI(lightldm) login but not able to login | 13:01 |
| howlymowly | PatrickDickey: I don't remember the exact saying... | 13:01 |
| howlymowly | I was just wondering | 13:02 |
| PatrickDickey | jony: It sounds like you'll have to ssh into the lubuntu console, and then ssh from there into the other consoles. | 13:02 |
| bennypr0fane | l057c0d3r, I can't find that string in my gtk.css. take a look if you like: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/168164/gtk.css | 13:02 |
| jony | PatrickDickey, but I can ssh without port forwarding? | 13:02 |
| Jamiem93 | Is notepad++ available on Linux? | 13:02 |
| ActionParsnip | vnc786: try: sudo service lightdm start | 13:03 |
| ActionParsnip | Jamiem93: use gedit | 13:03 |
| Jamiem93 | I don't like gedit :P | 13:03 |

| l057c0d3r_ | @define-color selected_fg_color #f5f5f5; | 13:03 |
| PatrickDickey | jony: no, you need to forward the ports used by ssh to the lubuntu console on the other network. Once you're in there, then yes you can ssh from it to whatever computer on that network you want to. | 13:03 |

| zetheroo | hey guys... I just tried Sunflower and it's a great File Manager with dual pane and integrated terminal as well ... supports tabs too!! :D | 13:03 |
| Jamiem93 | Is there a native version of npp without wine? | 13:03 |
| vnc786 | ActionParsnip: already running | 13:03 |
| jony | PatrickDickey, ok, let's say that the portforwarding is done, what should I do next? | 13:04 |
| vnc786 | ActionParsnip: i am not getting any tty except F1 | 13:04 |
| PatrickDickey | howlymowly: I'm not sure. But, autoclean and autoremove should have taken care of the extra packages. You could try apt-get clean too. | 13:04 |
| bennypr0fane | l057c0d3r, ah right, it's there without "theme_" | 13:04 |
| Jamiem93 | @Patrick - thanks for your help, I got Ubuntu running again with Windows 7 as dual. | 13:04 |
| howlymowly | alright... Thx PatrickDickey | 13:05 |
| ActionParsnip | vnc786: try stopping it and starting it again, or try CTRL + ALT + F7 | 13:05 |
| PatrickDickey | jony, you'll ssh into the lubuntu console. From there, you'll just ssh to whatever other computers you want. It's like a shell inside of a shell. | 13:05 |
| l057c0d3r_ | would make a backup before you edit it though | 13:05 |
| ActionParsnip | vnc786: could also try: startx | 13:05 |
| l057c0d3r_ | and that might not actually fix what you want | 13:05 |
| tjingboem | when i do: sudo chown -R menno berlijn i get: Operation not permitted. Why? | 13:05 |
| PatrickDickey | Jamiem93: I'm glad to hear that. :) | 13:05 |
| Jamiem93 | Such a shame xp is being discontinued :( | 13:05 |
| l057c0d3r_ | bennypr0fane, im kind of guessing on this one :-p looks right to me.. never edited a gtk theme.. just the gnome-shell.css but .css is .css so should be right | 13:05 |
| jony | PatrickDickey, can I access from my local browser the server's phpmyadmin page? | 13:06 |
| l057c0d3r_ | Jamiem93, you play around with this long enough.. and there will be very few problems you run into that are not fixable... | 13:06 |
| Jamiem93 | I'll play with it. I enjoy Ubuntu. | 13:06 |
| l057c0d3r_ | i've got to the point with gnome-shell now where i'm just changing the stuff myself that i dont like about it.. | 13:07 |
| PatrickDickey | jony: I'm going to say "No," since the server is not connected to the Internet. The closest you could do is a VNC server on the Lubuntu console, and use that to access the phpmyadmin page. | 13:07 |
| Jamiem93 | Ubuntu with unity is quite sexy and shiny. | 13:07 |
| l057c0d3r_ | a bit of a learning curve at first... but after so long.. you start to see simularities between different parts of it | 13:07 |
| l057c0d3r_ | Jamiem93, i have to admit the latest release of unity is must better then the first time i got my hands on it.. but still a gnome boy. cant help it | 13:08 |
| Jamiem93 | Yeah. I never had a problem with it before I messed up the MBR. | 13:08 |
| bennypr0fane | l057c0d3r, I'm trying this one, made backup. I opened Gimp, but now how do I find the values for my preferred color? do I need to open an image file first? | 13:08 |
| jony | PatrickDickey, ty for help, but the solution remain the same | 13:08 |
| Jamiem93 | I would have to say I prefer using the LDXE environment over unity. | 13:08 |
| l057c0d3r_ | bennypr0fane, open a new one | 13:08 |
| compdoc | jony, yeah, I think they have been wasting your time | 13:09 |
| ssy | hi | 13:09 |
| bennypr0fane | ok | 13:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Jamiem93: same, or just flux/openbox :) | 13:09 |
| l057c0d3r_ | then click on the color change for the pen.. | 13:09 |
| l057c0d3r_ | u see the html notation box.. when you get the color u want.. that will be the hex code # code for that color | 13:09 |
| jony | compdoc, nono, I'm not that kind of guy | 13:09 |
| PatrickDickey | compdoc: how would you suggest accessing the phpmyadmin page of a non internet connected server, located on a network outside of your LAN? | 13:09 |
| jony | compdoc, only I hoped that there is a better solution than mine | 13:10 |
| ssy | ? | 13:10 |
| compdoc | PatrickDickey, he wanted vnc, which works for him | 13:10 |
| raddy | Hello Everybody | 13:10 |
| PatrickDickey | jony: Is there a reason why the server can't be connected to the Internet? | 13:10 |
| vnc786 | ActionParsnip: thanks but i m doing clean installation again | 13:10 |
| l057c0d3r_ | ActionParsnip, i remember my second linux system.... plane jane gentoo / fluxbox settup :-p | 13:10 |
| raddy | I updated ubuntu 12.10 to 13.04 | 13:10 |
| raddy | 13.04 said to much faster | 13:11 |
| Jamiem93 | Are you referring to a local web server? | 13:11 |
| raddy | But app startup in my case is slower | 13:11 |
| Jamiem93 | Should I upgrade from 12.04 to 13.04? | 13:11 |
| jony | PatrickDickey, for security reason... it's not my decision :( | 13:11 |
| l057c0d3r_ | my old old computer downstairs is running gentoo / openbox / lxde... its kind of my toy i mess around on... leave ubuntu gnome on my main.. because heh i love apt | 13:11 |
| ssy | is there any downloadable version of ubunto to install on m android phone ? | 13:11 |
| l057c0d3r_ | and ubuntu has always been good to me | 13:11 |
| l057c0d3r_ | most the time that is | 13:11 |
| ActionParsnip | l057c0d3r_: fluxbox is the daddy | 13:11 |
| PatrickDickey | jony: Then your idea is the best solution. Using vnc. | 13:11 |

| l057c0d3r_ | Jamiem93, i did.. and i regret it because of changes made to gnome-shell | 13:12 |
| l057c0d3r_ | all my extensions broke.. and no updates for them yet... | 13:12 |
| Jamiem93 | I might look into fluxbox :P | 13:12 |
| * PatrickDickey is using Lubuntu. No real changes that I've noticed between 12.04, 12,10, and 13.04 | 13:12 | |
| Jamiem93 | Some very nice themes. | 13:12 |
| ActionParsnip | PatrickDickey: i'd use squid with an ssh tunnel, far sleeker | 13:13 |
| l057c0d3r_ | Jamiem93, fluxbox... openbox.. blackbox.. all about the same.. like openbox.. its good with lxde if you need a lightweight system | 13:13 |
| l057c0d3r_ | although a fluxbox cairo-dock setup is nice as well | 13:13 |
| bennypr0fane | l057c0d3r, I'm sorta only changing the background color, can't find where to change the pen color | 13:13 |
| Jamiem93 | Playing with CSS? :P | 13:13 |
| l057c0d3r_ | bennypr0fane, thats fine.. dosen't matter.. its the hex code you need anyway.. does not matter when you get it from | 13:14 |
| l057c0d3r_ | as long as its the color u want | 13:14 |
| jony | PatrickDickey, for VNC I need portforwarding too? | 13:14 |
| bennypr0fane | l057c0d3r, don't most shell extensions target 3.6 by now? | 13:14 |
| l057c0d3r_ | yeah.. | 13:14 |
| Jamiem93 | I've never been a fan of hex myself, always preferred rgb/rgba. | 13:14 |
| l057c0d3r_ | but gnome3-team is using 3.8 in ppa | 13:14 |
| bennypr0fane | l057c0d3r_, all I'm getting is some kind of grey :-P | 13:14 |
| l057c0d3r_ | and well... to lazy to purge and downgrade | 13:14 |
| l057c0d3r_ | ? | 13:15 |

| l057c0d3r_ | right so behind the _color put #3a19e0; | 13:20 |
| pijush | i think they removed it | 13:20 |
| felon | can someone help me get my display detected in ubuntu 13.04. | 13:21 |
| PatrickDickey | jony for any solution that you use, you'll need to forward the required ports to the lubuntu console. yes. | 13:21 |
| l057c0d3r_ | Jamiem93, he is altering a gtk theme.. | 13:21 |
| Jamiem93 | Oh. | 13:21 |
| jony | PatrickDickey, port forwarding is not allowed, so I must stick with LogMeIn Hamachi | 13:22 |

| micthev | nobody ? | 13:24 |
| PatrickDickey | jony: No guarantees, but you could have the VNC server listen on that same IP Interface (the one that's registered to LogMeIn). I haven't tried that, so I don't know if it would work or not. Then connect through that IP Address. | 13:25 |
| l057c0d3r_ | micthev, sorry.. any idea what is causing the crash.. | 13:25 |

| bennypr0fane | however, it's readable now! :-) | 13:29 |

| l057c0d3r_ | wonder why its gray | 13:29 |

| Slaizer | hi all, is there any way to upload videos to ubuntuone-client? | 13:49 |
| shasha | sorry guys, how can I say terminal to launch a file as a program? | 13:49 |
| l057c0d3r | Slaizer, as long as the video's are in a folder that is synced with ubuntuone.. they should upload.. unless u run out of space | 13:49 |
| ActionParsnip | PaNz: try switching to the main server ,the output looks fine otherwise | 13:50 |
| PaNz | what did you mean? | 13:50 |
| ActionParsnip | shasha: type the program name, then the file to open in that app | 13:50 |
| MonkeyDust | shasha use ./blah or sh blah | 13:50 |

| Slaizer | l057c0d3r: I got to check this, because I uploaded files in .avi and just the srt file uploaded. I have double checked this also. what am I doing wrong when uploading the folder? | 13:51 |
| bennypr0fane | shasha you need to make that file executable if it's not yet | 13:51 |
| shasha | ActionParsnip: i've downloaded the kernel | 13:51 |
| shasha | ActionParsnip: and wish to launch kconfig | 13:51 |

| anew | niervol they are exactly the same files | 14:50 |
| anew | i am looking at what the guy previous did | 14:50 |
| anew | are they not supposed to be the same files | 14:51 |
| niervol | those can be exact same files or just links | 14:51 |
| anew | so if i want to edit one which one do i edit ? | 14:51 |
| niervol | good practise is to keep files in 'sites-available' and then create links in 'sites-enabled' as needed | 14:52 |
| niervol | normally you should edit files in 'sites-available', but apache takes files from 'sites-enabled' into account | 14:53 |
| anew | ok | 14:53 |

| niervol | files from 'sites-available' are only linked | 14:53 |

| Zelator | it's something you can't really see, you only feel it. After 15-30 of work you can't stare at the screen anymore. | 15:01 |
| niervol | the point is: you can have a site in place which you DON'T want to enable atm. file exists and all you'll have to do to enable it in the future is to create a link i n'sites-enabled'. and the other way. if you want temporarily disable site, just delete the link | 15:01 |

| Gegabone | Hi Guys, can't anyone tell me how to fix this? http://imgur.com/MVyN4Tu | 15:29 |
| Iszak | So I'm using fdisk and it says my partition is GPT, however I don't know how to change it to MBR? | 15:30 |
| Gegabone | upgraded my OS on VirtualBox and now can't read anything as the terminal is tiny text | 15:30 |
| theadmin | Iszak: Don't bother, GPT is superior. Use parted (or gdisk) for operations on GPT partition tables. | 15:30 |
| Iszak | theadmin okay well how do I convert both then? | 15:31 |
| Iszak | theadmin on the other hand, I don't know if it is UEFI.. | 15:31 |
| theadmin | Iszak: That's an important part too. But GPT is still better (works with large drives, can support more than 4 primary partitions) | 15:32 |
| === RaNd0m is now known as Rand0m_Name | ||
| Fyodorovna | Gegabone, YOU have the guest additions installed? | 15:33 |
| platzhirsch1 | How can I make sure the package I want to install is either in the right version and/or fetched from the right repository? | 15:34 |
| === Fyodorovna is now known as wilee-nilee | ||
| Gegabone | I think I might have to reinstall as reading online it seems that by upgrading they no longer work | 15:34 |
| === qos is now known as qos|away | ||
| Gegabone | bit hard to do as can't read the text thout | 15:37 |
| Iszak | theadmin oh yeah I recognise the benefits, just need to make sure I can. | 15:37 |
| Gegabone | hmmm | 15:37 |
| Iszak | theadmin no UEFI. | 15:38 |
| theadmin | Iszak: It doesn't really matter, you can use GPT with BIOS too I think | 15:38 |
| Iszak | theadmin well I think easiest is to just use MBR for now. | 15:39 |
| satellit_e | what command do i use to install gnome-classic-session on precise? | 15:40 |

| wilee-nilee | Tatuus, Have you looked in software sources for additional drivers or reloaded any you had previously, an release upgrade needs drivers reloaded often. | 16:03 |

| ubottu | chro Best thing you can do is try each one out and use the one that works best for your own needs,: Some of the Web Browsers in Ubuntu's repositories include: Firefox (XUL, Gecko), Rekonq (KDE, WebKit), Konqueror (KDE, KHTML/WebKit), Chromium (GTK+, WebKit), Epiphany(GTK+, WebKit), Arora (Qt/KDE, WebKit), Midori (GTK+, WebKit), w3m (terminal-based), links2 (terminal-based or graphical, see !manpage), edbrowse (terminal-based). Along with many others. | 16:22 |
| Mrokii | Dr_willis: Thanks, that was what I was looking for. | 16:23 |
| w30 | Midori is touted as a light weight browser | 16:23 |
| Dr_willis | fede, user settings are in various . files in their home. .config id a directory full of them. start by renameing that to .config.backup and log out/back in | 16:23 |
| leolove | sruli that means openvpn and cisco ssl are incompatible with each other. You cannot expect openvpn client to connect to cisco ssl vpn | 16:23 |
| Dr_willis | fede, also check that your .Xauthoity file is owned by your user | 16:23 |

| LiquidDemocracy | theadmin, I know but I only does't work during the initial graphical login into Ubuntu. After that the keyboard is correct. Locking/unlocking screen uses the correct keyboard. | 16:40 |
| theadmin | thomedy: Well, for example: ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Moscow /etc/localtime will create the link /etc/localtime, pointing to the /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Moscow file | 16:40 |

| Dr_willis | Hmm.. Noticed that the Live-usb maker tools at Pendrivelinux are 'updated' but they are using the wrong iso image file names. ;( and they dont have entrys for the ubuntu-gnome iso.. yet. | 16:43 |
| thomedy | i must be doing something wrong... | 16:44 |
| thomedy | i have xampp installed in /opt | 16:44 |
| thomedy | so the directory is /opt/lamp/htdocs | 16:44 |
| thomedy | and then i have created a directory called www | 16:44 |
| thomedy | my ln is called | 16:44 |
| theadmin | Dr_willis: They may not have Ubuntu Gnome, but the filenames seem right to me. | 16:44 |
| thomedy | ln -s /opt/lamp/htdocs ~/www | 16:44 |
| theadmin | thomedy: XAMPP installs under /opt/lampp/, not /opt/lamp | 16:45 |
| thomedy | and www is off [username] | 16:45 |
| Shadal | can someone give me a rundown on purging and reinstalling postfix and related packages?.. | 16:45 |
| Jagst3r15 | how do you assign a .profile to a specific user | 16:45 |
| thomedy | nope i do hav e2 p's i just checked i just forgot to put it in the irc | 16:45 |
| thomedy | cp paste | 16:45 |
| thomedy | ln -s /opt/lampp/htdocs/ ~/www/ | 16:45 |
| thomedy | cp paste | 16:45 |
| wilee-nilee | Dr_willis, I use the multisystem usb seen at pendrivelinux, works nicely. | 16:45 |
| Dr_willis | Jagst3r15, each user has their own .profile file in their home | 16:45 |
| theadmin | thomedy: There, now the problem is the trailing slash after ~/www | 16:46 |
| thomedy | okay so i cant use that var | 16:46 |
| thomedy | i have to go full path | 16:46 |
| Dr_willis | wilee-nilee, Yumi? i just noticed that it wants the 'wrong' file names.. ie: it wanted raring-desktop.amd64.iso not ubuntu-desktop.amd64.iso | 16:46 |
| theadmin | thomedy: No, you can't, just ~/www, not ~/www/ | 16:46 |
| theadmin | thomedy: Err, you can | 16:46 |
| Dr_willis | wilee-nilee, and i noticed that neither yumi or UniversalUSb installer had a menu item for the ubuntu-gnome | 16:46 |
| Mrokii | How do I reinstall the regular Ubuntu-Desktop (Unity)? For some reason my system doesn't boot into it anymore and when I use "startx" from a TTY I am put into IceWM (which I installed a long time ago). | 16:47 |
| Dr_willis | Those tools are getting so many differnt disrtos in their listings. they need to redo the GUI to organize them better. | 16:47 |
| wilee-nilee | Dr_willis, I have tried yumi and the universal, but for usb's loaded from linux the multisystem is best you can load almost anything and it has a huge download list | 16:47 |
| theadmin | Mrokii: sudo apt-get --reinstall install ubuntu-desktop # Will install ALL teh packages found on the Ubuntu ISO. | 16:47 |
| theadmin | Mrokii: May take a while but at least foolproof | 16:48 |
| Mrokii | theadmin: Thanks, will try. | 16:48 |
| LiquidDemocracy | How do I know what Login manager I use? | 16:48 |
| Dr_willis | wilee-nilee, i got the isos downloaded. ;) just all these tools are so picky about the name. | 16:48 |
| Dr_willis | LiquidDemocracy, sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm will show a list and let you change it | 16:48 |
| Dr_willis | LiquidDemocracy, lightdm is the default for most ubuntu variants. | 16:48 |
| Jagst3r15 | Dr_willis but can you target a specific user's .profile or can you only set the .profile system wide | 16:48 |
| Dr_willis | Jagst3r15, what? there is a system wide profile in /etc/ and users have their own in their home | 16:49 |
| Jagst3r15 | ohhh | 16:49 |
| Dr_willis | Jagst3r15, so im not sure what you mean ;P | 16:49 |
| Jagst3r15 | duh | 16:49 |
| Jagst3r15 | sorry my bad | 16:49 |
| theadmin | LiquidDemocracy: grep -HF "Display Manager" /etc/init/* | 16:49 |
| wilee-nilee | Dr_willis, try this one it just works, I have noticed however that it wants a fat made with gparted in general is all. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/ there is a multisystem website as well in french but translates to english. | 16:49 |
| Dr_willis | the users configs MAY or may not read the system profile depend on how its setup | 16:50 |
| Jagst3r15 | k | 16:50 |
| theadmin | LiquidDemocracy: That'll list them, you can "sudo dpkg-reconfigure whichever-you-prefer" to switch to it. | 16:50 |
| LiquidDemocracy | Dr_willis, the command didn't output anything | 16:50 |
| Dr_willis | LiquidDemocracy, you got somthing very weird going on then.. or did a typo | 16:51 |
| LiquidDemocracy | Dr_willis, I copied your command. | 16:51 |
| Dr_willis | LiquidDemocracy, what ubuntu did you install? | 16:51 |
| LiquidDemocracy | 13.04 | 16:51 |
| LiquidDemocracy | KUbuntu | 16:51 |
| Dr_willis | LiquidDemocracy, Kubuntu uses KDM by default | 16:51 |
| theadmin | Dr_willis: False. ALL Ubuntu versions use LightDM since 12.10. | 16:51 |
| LiquidDemocracy | sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm? | 16:51 |
| Dr_willis | sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm | 16:51 |
| theadmin | LiquidDemocracy: (see above, Kubuntu uses LightDM nowadays too) | 16:52 |
| LiquidDemocracy | kdm is broken or not fully installed | 16:52 |
| Dr_willis | theadmin, somthings wonky then.. I definatly have to do a 'sudo service kdm stop ' here | 16:52 |
| Shadal | can someone give me a rundown on purging and reinstalling postfix and related packages?.. | 16:52 |
| Dr_willis | but it could be how i installed kubuntu-desktop here. or kdm diretly from a upgrade | 16:52 |
| theadmin | Dr_willis: See http://www.kubuntu.org/news/12.10-release , introducing lightdm-kde | 16:53 |
| Dr_willis | Gdm has a odd bug for me where the pointer is hidden. Lightdm default Ubuntu theme is just.. well.. poor. ;) so im using kdm | 16:53 |
| Dr_willis | 'we have replaced their regular dm manager with the new lightdm-kde manager' lets see if they notice. ;) | 16:53 |
| Dr_willis | but if i specifically installed 'kdm' is that kdm , or lightdm-kde ;) | 16:54 |
| theadmin | Dr_willis: Nay, that would be KDM as it is | 16:54 |
| LiquidDemocracy | I tried the command grep -HF "Display Manager" /etc/init/* and it outputs 4 lines showing kdm as well as lightdm. | 16:54 |
| Dr_willis | thats what i got going on then. | 16:54 |
| lotuspsychje | whats the safest way to remotely take over own ubuntu desktop? | 16:55 |
| Dr_willis | so the default login manager for Kubuntu - is now lightdm-kde, but kdm is still in the repos if you want it. | 16:55 |
| Dr_willis | lotuspsychje, use the shutdown command over ssh. is one way | 16:55 |
| Dr_willis | lotuspsychje, or you mean power down the machine.. | 16:55 |
| Dr_willis | or reboot? | 16:55 |
| lotuspsychje | Dr_willis: no remotely take-over, like teamviewer or such | 16:56 |
| Dr_willis | teamviewer exists for linux | 16:56 |
| LiquidDemocracy | But I have the wrong keyboard layout when entering the encryption passphrase for Ubuntu, so it must be another problem. | 16:56 |
| lotuspsychje | Dr_willis: i just hear tv got exploits | 16:56 |
| LiquidDemocracy | Can I set the keyboard layout in the bios? | 16:56 |
| Dr_willis | lotuspsychje, no idea. i dont use the things.. do a ssh tunle and use vnc if you want | 16:57 |
| lotuspsychje | Dr_willis: ok tnx for info | 16:57 |
| thomedy | i dont knwo why i never remember how tha tworks | 16:57 |
| thomedy | i hav edone that multiple times | 16:57 |

| Dr_willis | wilee-nilee, booting iso files via grub2 is so much 'cleaner' | 16:58 |
| wilee-nilee | Dr_willis, I have seen multiloaders for windows and tried some but found that contig fragging s problematic | 16:58 |
| wilee-nilee | is* | 16:59 |
| wilee-nilee | Dr_willis, The multisystem boots W7 and W8 as well as a ton of others you can drag and drop ISO's. | 17:00 |
| Dr_willis | wilee-nilee, yea. not seeing any that run IN windows.. that lets you make multi linux usbs that use grub2. one i see uses grub4dos | 17:00 |
| c0mputer | i am in a situation where i need to grab a mysqldump from the 'recovery mode' from my vps host. its hostname is root@onapp. mysqldump gives me command not found | 17:01 |
| Dr_willis | Just making some notes for my friend as to what he may want to use. | 17:01 |
| roadfish | I need to do a reinstall in the next week or so. I read some mixed comments about using 13.04, especially how 13.04 only has 9 months of support. Should I stick with 12.04 in my reinstall or should I upgrade to 13.04? | 17:01 |
| Dr_willis | roadfish, depends on what you need 'support' for. | 17:01 |
| pestilence | is there any way to get a better preview of files when you are viewing them in nautilus? like, a really large thumbnail so that you can read the document's first page? | 17:01 |
| Dr_willis | roadfish, and how badly you want newer apps. | 17:01 |
| lotuspsychje | roadfish: i would clean install 13.04 | 17:01 |
| LiquidDemocracy | Here is the EXACT same problem I have. Exact scenario. I will try his solution. http://cosmicb.no/2013/04/16/wrong-keyboard-layout-in-lightdm-for-kubuntu/ | 17:02 |
| Dr_willis | in 9 months you may be wanting 13.10 anyway. so the 9 mo support. is not a big deal | 17:02 |
| lotuspsychje | roadfish: you might wanna check omgubuntu for 13.04 new features too | 17:02 |
| wilee-nilee | Dr_willis, The multisysem uses grub4dos to boot the windows iso, but grub 2 in general. | 17:02 |
| roadfish | Dr_willis: I do want to have a newer version of mtpfs to connect up my Nexus7. So 13.04 would be nice for that. | 17:02 |
| Dr_willis | wilee-nilee, those sick puppies! ;) | 17:03 |
| Honksu | Hi! I am currently running my system from decraded RAID1 HDD and I want to move it to SSD. I broke RAID1 for reason because my motherboard had faulty SATA port and it kept crashing. All other SATA ports were of course in use. Now I have new motherboard, CPU and RAM. If I use cp +xa to move my root FS and then mount new drive and change UUID from /etc/fstab and /etc/default/grub.cfg and run udpate-grub is there something else to do because of tha RAID1 an | 17:03 |
| Sagitt | there is an official ubuntu-gnome 13.04? | 17:03 |
| roadfish | lotuspsychje:ok, so you're finding 13.04 to be fine then. | 17:03 |
| Dr_willis | roadfish, i saw where kubuntu 13.04 has big mtfs improvements. ;) not really tried it. I tend to use 'airdroid' on my android phone. so i dont even need mtfs any more | 17:03 |
| lotuspsychje | roadfish: i do! its fast and nice | 17:03 |
| Dr_willis | if you want mtfs support for android. then i definatly think you will want the latest release | 17:04 |
| roadfish | ok, I guess that's the clincher | 17:04 |
| Dr_willis | Or use airdroid. ;) its a very very handy tool | 17:04 |

| Dr_willis | no wifi for your android to pc to connect and love on each other? :) how sad | 17:06 |
| wilee-nilee | Dr_willis, I don't worry about the W7 or W8 iso's though they can be extracted to a nfts with a bootflag and boot, I have windows 8 with a student discount, and XP, but just for helping ms useser and using word to write grad papers. | 17:07 |
| wilee-nilee | users* | 17:07 |
| roadfish | One thing I'm wondering about this 9months of support on 13.04. Obviously, there will be no package upgrades in 9months. But will the servers actually be totally purged of 13.04 packages? Will I still be able to do ``apt-get'' or will I get a 404? | 17:08 |

| Sagitt | i download this http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-gnome/releases/13.04/release/ | 17:08 |
| Dr_willis | roadfish, when things go EOL they get moved to an archive server | 17:09 |
| roadfish | :-( .... so roadfish will be high and dry | 17:09 |
| Sagitt | is the official 13.04 ubuntu-gnome? works right? | 17:09 |
| Dr_willis | Sagitt, it should work.. | 17:09 |

| Dr_willis | why would you think theres more then 1 ? | 17:09 |
| Dr_willis | what others are you thinking may exist? | 17:10 |

| lotuspsychje | is there like a pentest collection for ubuntu i can install? | 17:10 |
| Dr_willis | roadfish, yes. but if you are still using a release after it goes EOL and moved.. its seriously time to upgrade. | 17:10 |
| wilee-nilee | steve___1, Switch the software sources to all releases, turn off 3rd party repos and run a update and the update manager will work. | 17:10 |
| Dr_willis | Sagitt, err.. its been finalized/released . so thers no longer alpha/beta stuff of it. | 17:11 |
| Sagitt | good | 17:11 |
| Sagitt | gnome is lighter than unity? | 17:11 |
| wilee-nilee | steve___1, Make sure you are updated with no errors. | 17:11 |
| Dr_willis | NastyNaz, vpn might be the only way | 17:11 |
| roadfish | does EOL also mean end-of-line in this situation? | 17:11 |
| Dr_willis | Sagitt, hard to tell. i imagine the 2 are close. its gnome-shell vs unity. | 17:11 |
| Dr_willis | !eol | 17:11 |
| ubottu | End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 17:11 |

| llldino_ | DrIDK, Can you format it, or do you have important stuff on there? | 17:35 |
| bazhang | vonkrolok, tried those other two options? | 17:35 |
| llldino_ | DrIDK, And was it working on that distro yesterday? | 17:36 |
| DrIDK | llldino_, yes | 17:36 |
| sruli | trism: that's not the error i get, i get the following http://pastebin.com/YUcnyecf | 17:36 |
| juniour | hi this wallch is consuming more cpu wt to do??? | 17:36 |
| DrIDK | llldino_, that's way I m sure , usb stick is down. And I m trying to recover data | 17:36 |
| llldino_ | DrIDK, When you restarted it was the stick in or out? | 17:37 |
| vonkrolok | yes, gtkpod freezes and rhythmbox get's in an error frenzy after 100+ songs transferred | 17:37 |
| DrIDK | llldino_, both | 17:37 |
| llldino_ | DrIDK, Touche | 17:37 |
| betrayd | c0mputer: when you got nothing to lose... | 17:37 |
| llldino_ | DrIDK, Not really sure I can help you | 17:37 |
| betrayd | c0mputer: good luck m8 | 17:37 |
| llldino_ | DrIDK, Is it formatted to FAT? | 17:37 |
| DrIDK | llldino_, yes | 17:38 |
| llldino_ | DrIDK, Are you running raring? | 17:38 |
| DrIDK | llldino_, yes | 17:38 |
| llldino_ | DrIDK, Maybe check out bug reports | 17:39 |
| llldino_ | DrIDK, Did you do anything huge between when it was last working and now? | 17:39 |
| vonkrolok | bazhang also gtkpod has another problem: doesn't save in folders... saves everything in the same folder naming files with artist_album kinda format | 17:39 |
| troulouliou_dev | hi what is the best gui for iptables ? | 17:39 |
| DrIDK | llldino_, usb stick was connected during a while . I was not here when it dead | 17:39 |
| bazhang | troulouliou_dev, gufw | 17:40 |
| bazhang | !info gufw | troulouliou_dev | 17:40 |
| troulouliou_dev | bazhang, will try thanks | 17:40 |
| ubottu | troulouliou_dev: gufw (source: gui-ufw): graphical user interface for ufw. In component universe, is optional. Version 13.04.0-0ubuntu1 (raring), package size 229 kB, installed size 1178 kB | 17:40 |
| llldino_ | DrIDK, Have you tried mounting on another distro since it stopped working? | 17:40 |
| vonkrolok | there doesn't seem to be a solution then... | 17:42 |

| BluesKaj | leolove, CRDA? | 17:45 |
| MonkeyDust | leolove trying to learn every day... what is CRDA | 17:46 |
| MonkeyDust | ? | 17:46 |
| leolove | CRDA for wifi. | 17:46 |
| leolove | [11135.361338] cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain | 17:46 |
| leolove | [11135.371815] cfg80211: World regulatory domain updated: | 17:46 |
| leolove | I need to disable it completely | 17:46 |
| leolove | It disconnects my wifi ever after 10 minutes approx. and I have to sudo restart network-manager to get back the connection | 17:47 |
| MonkeyDust | leolove what is it supposed to do and where do things go wrong? | 17:47 |
| leolove | Ralink corp. RT5390 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe is my card MonkeyDust | 17:48 |
| MonkeyDust | leolove great! and what is CRDA? | 17:48 |
| leolove | http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Regulatory/CRDA | 17:49 |
| leolove | This is CRDA :p | 17:49 |
| === llldino_ is now known as llldino | ||
| MonkeyDust | leolove in your own words: what is it and why do you want to use it? | 17:50 |
| leolove | MonkeyDust I want to disable it. It actually queries the regulatory authority database to compliance with local wireless laws. | 17:50 |
| sangabbay | hi | 17:50 |
| leolove | The problem is, when it does it disconnects me from wireless and I need a workaround to get reliable connection | 17:51 |
| MonkeyDust | leolove if you don't know waht it is and don't know how to use or handle it, how did it get there in the first place? | 17:51 |
| leolove | MonkeyDust it is already in 13.04 by default. | 17:52 |
| leolove | Nothing fancy done by me | 17:52 |
| === versi is now known as kalkov | ||
| leolove | I am troubleshooting and found that CRDA is being called exactly when wifi disconnects. | 17:52 |
| leolove | I can see it in my dmesg | 17:52 |
| MonkeyDust | leolove undo what you did to get it there | 17:54 |
| leolove | Problem is, I did not do anything :( | 17:54 |
| leolove | It is a fresh install. | 17:54 |
| debdeb | hi | 17:55 |
| debdeb | is there a channel for ubuntu on nexus-7? | 17:55 |
| Dr_Willis | !arm | 17:56 |
| ubottu | ARM is a specific (RISC) processor architecture used in a variety of applications such as handhelds and networkdevices. For more information see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM . For ARM specific support, stop by the #ubuntu-arm channel. | 17:56 |

| llldino | Nothing_Much, The moment I mentioned I was running raring everyone started ripping me apart and hurt my feelings | 18:04 |
| snollux | How can I figure out what version of PAM I have installed? | 18:04 |
| tarruda | is there any terminal email client than can compete with mutt? | 18:04 |
| bazhang | !ot | llldino | 18:04 |
| ubottu | llldino: #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! | 18:04 |
| Nothing_Much | Lol is it ##apple or just #apple? | 18:04 |
| bazhang | Nothing_Much, lets move on please | 18:05 |
| Nothing_Much | My bda | 18:05 |
| Nothing_Much | *bad | 18:05 |
| bazhang | tarruda, what does apt-cache search term show | 18:05 |
| llldino | Nothing_Much, ##apple, I went because i'm having trouble with suspend in raring and someone directed me to go there from here | 18:05 |
| Nothing_Much | Okay, well sorry you got crap for your question | 18:06 |
| tarruda | bazhang: I know there are other email clients, I just want to know if there are other that can compete with mutt features | 18:06 |
| === ex is now known as Guest3460 | ||
| bazhang | tarruda, try them and decide | 18:06 |
| llldino | Nothing_Much, Not your fault, and ideas how I can check firmware versions or how to debug my suspend issue | 18:06 |
| tarruda | bazhang: Maybe someone has already tried and can give me a hint? | 18:07 |
| Incarus | Ubuntu one is really bad. It can't sync your files to a mobile device, the windows-version is crashing and the uninstaller is recognised as a virus. http://cima.security.comodo.com/report/d4c5630d5c674534571e7f7b2627880f9c38c2e7.htm | 18:08 |
| === mr is now known as Guest38368 | ||
| wilee-nilee | Incarus, There are many free cloud services use one that works. ;) | 18:09 |
| OerHeks | Incarus, ubuntu-one is not bad, your mobile device can be hacked, so be carefulll who to blaim. | 18:09 |
| Nothing_Much | Oh dear | 18:09 |
| wilee-nilee | Incarus, comodo allows you to okay stuff. | 18:10 |
| ezra-s | OerHeks, hacked how? | 18:10 |
| tgm4883 | Incarus, most people don't want to sync all their files to their mobile device | 18:11 |
| Incarus | wilee-nilee, wanted to use it instead of dropbox, but file-sync didn't work there too (it's just not supported in both apps), I expected more from a free alternative | 18:11 |
| wilee-nilee | Incarus, Funny I have used both with no problems I use dropbox now, I suspect it is user error. | 18:11 |
| ezra-s | Incarus, "you expected more from a free alternative"? Sounds like nonsense.. | 18:11 |
| Incarus | tgm4883, it's just a small and easy to implement feature, senseless to implement in not. | 18:11 |
| OerHeks | ezra-s, i don't know how. | 18:12 |
| === jack is now known as Guest9256 | ||
| ezra-s | OerHeks, then why do you say that? | 18:12 |
| Incarus | wilee-nilee, no, you can't access files you didn't access before, both doesn't synchronise your files, it's not a bug | 18:12 |
| tgm4883 | Incarus, as others here have suggested. I think you are speaking nonsense | 18:12 |
| cordor | in ubuntu 13.04, do i still need to downgrade xorg for ati legacy driver? | 18:12 |
| Nothing_Much | cordor, yes | 18:13 |
| OerHeks | ezra-s, why do you ask? it is a mobile issue, not ubuntu. | 18:13 |
| jakemp | how do I rename applications so that they appear for the new name, and not the old name when I hit the super key and start typing? | 18:14 |
| Incarus | tgm4883, it's just my expierence from trying and using it, I got a ubuntu one account since it first appeared | 18:14 |
| punter | I just clean-installed Ubuntu 13.04, and checked both options: encrypt the one partition that my disk has, and encrypt my home folder. Does that mean that my home folder is doubly-encrypted? I.e. have I applied encryption upon an already-encrypted part of the disk? | 18:14 |
| Kroach | I want to install Ogre SDK in Ubuntu 12.04, is it in the official repositories, if so, what package is it(I can see several after searching for the keyword "ogre")? | 18:14 |
| cordor | Nothing_Much: thanks | 18:14 |
| snollux | How can I figure out what version of PAM I have installed? | 18:15 |
| cordor | Nothing_Much: xvideo is not working, now i know why | 18:15 |
| wilee-nilee | jakemp, Why would you want to rename them? | 18:15 |
| hustcalm | Kroach: you can use 'sudo apt-get install ogre' to get some luck | 18:15 |
| tgm4883 | Incarus, the length of time you have used a product != how well you know how to use a product | 18:15 |
| Nothing_Much | cordor, what? Are you using fglrx or the radeon driver? | 18:15 |
| hustcalm | Kroach: use Tab to autocomplete to get some hints | 18:15 |
| jakemp | wilee-nilee, because I want to type calc and get my calculator, and type excel,and get libre office calc | 18:16 |
| Incarus | tgm4883, I'm pretty sure I know how to use it. There are several external shareware applications at the app-store, which brings that feature to ubuntu-one. | 18:17 |
| Kroach | hustcalm: there are ogre-doc, ogre-samples-data, ogre-tools, ogre-samples and ogre-samples-dbg | 18:17 |
| wilee-nilee | jakemp, Heh, okay. ;) | 18:17 |
| cordor | Nothing_Much: i was using fglrx, upgraded to raring, wanted to try unity and gnome shell, (both were disabled, i was using classic). none of them work. fall back to classic, no xvideo. i was thinking what's the problem. | 18:17 |
| === lomo7_ is now known as lomo7 | ||
| hustcalm | Kroach: I thougt the ogre-tools will do the job | 18:18 |
| jakemp | I just see no simple way to tell it aliases for names | 18:18 |
| Nothing_Much | What's your graphics card? radeon is so far your only hope of using everything properly, sadly. | 18:18 |
| hustcalm | Kroach: other packages are docs and samples, you can install or not | 18:18 |
| cordor | Nothing_Much: onboard HD 3000 | 18:18 |
| Nothing_Much | Ouch, have you installed all of the mesa/libgl libraries? | 18:18 |
| cordor | can i try fglrx-legacy? | 18:19 |
| Kroach | hustcalm: I just wonder if everything I need is in this package | 18:19 |
| cordor | it was working before upgrade to 13.04, i think | 18:19 |
| ghs | After to update Ubuntu 13.04, this without sound. Any suggestion ? | 18:19 |
| Mneumonic | I'm currently on 13.04. Everything is amazing (best Ubuntu yet), except every second or third time I reboot or shutdown it will get stuck shutting down. It says "mount: / is busy" and never progresses with the shut down. | 18:20 |
| Nothing_Much | fglrx is the legacy driver that doesn't have compatibility with the latest xorg driver, so it most likely won't work. | 18:20 |
| Nothing_Much | *fglrx-legacy | 18:20 |
| trism | jakemp: you can use Keywords= in the .desktop file, though I notice Libreoffice already has Excel as a keyword on 13.04 | 18:20 |
| cordor | Nothing_Much: i have a feeling it's going to take me much less time just buying a cheap card. | 18:21 |
| jakemp | I just use calc more than I expected. It's gotten to the point where it's worth the time to change it. | 18:21 |
| hustcalm | Kroach: you got to know that, packages are always splited into binary, docs, samples and devel, headers, etc | 18:21 |
| jakemp | Thanks, I'll try playing with that trism | 18:21 |
| tgm4883 | Incarus, I probably don't understand what exact features you are missing then | 18:21 |
| hustcalm | Kroach: if you just want to use the binary, I think ogre-tools is what you look for | 18:21 |
| Mneumonic | Does anyone know how I can fix my problem? | 18:22 |
| Nothing_Much | Yeah, you're better off getting an Nvidia card anyways, if you game then you can use down to a GeForce 8 card, if you just browse about, then you can use down to the GeForce 6 series of cards | 18:22 |
| ghs | After to update Ubuntu 13.04, this without sound. Any suggestion ? Someone ? | 18:22 |
| tgm4883 | Incarus, oh, and "this will be easy to implement" are famous last words in software development | 18:22 |
| Dr_willis | ghs, useing HDMI audio? | 18:22 |
| ghs | Dr_willis, not know. | 18:22 |
| Dr_willis | ghs, how are the speakers plugged in? | 18:22 |
| cordor | Nothing_Much: oh, i was thinking radeon card. | 18:22 |
| Kroach | hustcalm: I'm trying to compile a game and the install instructions contain installing Ogre SDK | 18:23 |
| Nothing_Much | Then you'd need to get at least a 5xxx series card from AMD | 18:23 |
| ghs | Dr_willis, no. | 18:23 |
| Incarus | tgm4883, files on mobile devices are only linked, they aren't stored on the mobile device. You need to open them on the mobile device, to have them stored on your device, so you can't use other files you haven't open yet without an internet connection | 18:23 |
| hustcalm | Kroach: That's fine, if so, I think you are looking for something like ogre-devel | 18:23 |
| Mneumonic | I'm currently on 13.04. Everything is amazing (best Ubuntu yet), except every second or third time I reboot or shutdown it will get stuck shutting down. It says "mount: / is busy" and never progresses with the shut down. | 18:24 |
| tgm4883 | Incarus, I thought I was able to select and download the files without opening them, but I'll have to check | 18:24 |
| hustcalm | Kroach: a.k.a the development parts of ogre | 18:24 |
| betrayd | Mneumonic: you have to hit the power switch then? | 18:24 |
| johnjohn101 | you guys making me think twice about buying an AMD FM2 chip with built in graphics. Is this really a concern with the newest ubuntu? | 18:24 |
| Incarus | tgm4883, only if you downloadet it allready by opening it | 18:24 |
| Mneumonic | betrayd, yes I'm forced to hold the power button and force a shutdown...which I'm not keen on doing | 18:24 |
| Incarus | tgm4883, the point is, that people don't want to download every single file, if you have like hundrets of documents, you just want to have them synchronised. | 18:25 |
| Ab3L | hi | 18:25 |
| betrayd | Mneumonic: of course, but can you predict when it will happen next | 18:25 |
| tgm4883 | Incarus, no, I don't want to sync 100GB to my phone | 18:25 |
| cordor | Nothing_Much: thanks. brb reboot | 18:25 |
| chaotix | Question: why does Unity select the Alt key for bringing up the "HUD"? | 18:25 |
| Mneumonic | betrayd, no. It seems random. It only happens every third restart or so | 18:26 |
| Mneumonic | It doesn't give me any more information than "mount: / is busy" so I'm not sure how to tell what is going on | 18:26 |
| Incarus | tgm4883, but I do, and other people too, documents aren't that big. | 18:26 |
| Dr_willis_ | chaotix, because alt-Stuff is normally assoicated with Menu items. wich is what the HUD is accessing | 18:26 |
| chaotix | ah ok | 18:26 |
| Ab3L | do you know nethogs? it allows to see which process is using your bandwidth and the amount. now my question: how can i limit the bandwidth for a specific process? | 18:27 |
| chaotix | thanks Doc, helpful and informative as always | 18:27 |
| chaotix | and Ubuntu has come along rather nicely | 18:27 |
| betrayd | Mneumonic: goto a tty (alt-fsomething) when it happens and type fuser command | 18:27 |
| Mneumonic | what will "fuser" do | 18:27 |
| Dr_willis_ | chaotix, most people dont even notice the HUD. its one of those neat overlooked features | 18:27 |
| betrayd | Mneumonic: go to a terminal now to type 'man fuser' | 18:27 |
| chaotix | i wish i could set the key as "ALT + (hold)ALT" | 18:28 |
| betrayd | Mneumonic: for the manual, so you'd be prepared | 18:28 |
| Mneumonic | betrayd, actually it looks like it's happening to others too http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2140104&highlight=busy | 18:29 |
| Dr_willis_ | chaotix, no idea why you would want that | 18:29 |
| betrayd | Mneumonic: still being worked on, good, not alone then | 18:29 |
| chaotix | or maybe to just tap alt twice | 18:29 |
| chaotix | you dont think that would be a good idea? | 18:29 |
| h00k | 9 | 18:29 |
| betrayd | 10 | 18:30 |
| Mneumonic | betrayd, should I be worried about forcing my laptop to shutdown by holding hte power button? | 18:30 |
| Mneumonic | betrayd, can't that corrupt data? | 18:30 |
| betrayd | Mneumonic: when you press it the middle of a busy session, yes | 18:30 |
| wilee-nilee | !reisub | Mneumonic | 18:31 |
| ubottu | Mneumonic: In an emergency, you may be able to shutdown cleanly and reboot by holding down Alt+PrintScreen and typing, in succession, R, E, I, S, U and B. For an explanation, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key | 18:31 |
| betrayd | Mneumonic: thats why fuser might clue you in HOW busy | 18:31 |
| ghs | I'm without sound on my ubuntu 13.04. | 18:31 |
| Mneumonic | betrayd, by the way, thanks for all the information. Other than this small issue, 13.04 is amazing. It's the best linux distro I've used since I started using linux in 2008 | 18:31 |

| prasad | help me after installation of ubutu 12.10 only wallpaper display nothing happen | 18:37 |
| ronalds | prasad, why install 12.10 in first place | 18:37 |
| Dr_willis_ | ghs, give us details as to what sort of hardware setup you have.. You have given us no real information. | 18:37 |
| Mneumonic | prasad, I'd recommend installing 13.04. It is a lot better than 12.10 | 18:37 |
| wilee-nilee | prasad, Check for additional drivers. | 18:37 |
| ghs | The Ubuntu 13.04 is handful of bug. :( | 18:38 |
| prasad | which drivers required | 18:38 |
| ronalds | ghs mention one? | 18:38 |
| ghs | Dr_willis_, Where I can to get that info ? | 18:38 |
| Dr_willis_ | ghs, a pointless statement. Stick to the problem at hand. | 18:38 |
| wilee-nilee | prasad, There is an app "additional drivers" open it and see if any are offered. | 18:38 |
| prasad | any one can take my rdc | 18:39 |
| ghs | ronalds, sound, for example ? | 18:39 |
| Dr_willis_ | ghs, again. How are your speakers hooked up? are you useing a laptop? a Desktop? a Vic-20? | 18:39 |
| wilee-nilee | prasad, Are you up\dated? | 18:39 |
| prasad | no | 18:39 |
| Rand0m_Name | Does anyone know if I can install Ubuntu over Windows XP with out any problems? | 18:39 |

| Dr_willis_ | ghs, you have so far given us NO real info. so.. what Make laptop? | 18:39 |
| Atum_ | Rand0m_Name: Yea, you can do it. | 18:39 |
| wilee-nilee | prasad, You can update from a tty if needed that may load the drivers needed. | 18:39 |
| MonkeyDust | Rand0m_Name sure, it's called dualboot | 18:40 |
| Dr_willis_ | ghs, start being more verbose in the info. we get tired of having to play 20 questions with info you should be stateing from the start. | 18:40 |

| MonkeyDust | ronalds in a terminal, type ubuntu-bug, a small window pops up | 18:44 |
| ronalds | who uses smplayer, do you also get this thing when resizing window by double click, back to screen, and it just keeps video from fullscreen? | 18:44 |
| ghs | Dr_willis_, The info is plain. The Ubuntu 13.04 is with a bug related to sound. See: https://launchpad.net/bugs/1169984. Such bug, is reaching to all. In other words, I though that you already knew about that info. | 18:44 |

| prasad | Dr_willis_: yes | 18:47 |
| Dr_willis_ | prasad, if this is a brand new install. i really would reccomend using 13.10 instead of 12.10 - it might 'just work' | 18:48 |
| Dr_willis_ | oops 13.04 i mean. ;) | 18:48 |

| JAF2801 | HELLO! | 18:51 |
| Dr_willis_ | be easier to just do a clean install of 13.04 IF its a brand new install of 12.04 | 18:51 |
| wilee-nilee | prasad, YOU would want to have 12.10 fully updated to upgrade. | 18:51 |
| wilee-nilee | I would just fresh install 13.04 it would be faster. | 18:52 |
| Dr_willis_ | or just install some other desktop instead of unity for now.. compiz/unity seems to have some issues where it dosent fully load at times. and ive never seen a definitve fix/reason why its doing it. | 18:52 |
| prasad | wilee-nilee: last time i update 12.10 but i have same problem | 18:52 |
| m1chael | i have an old document written on a very old mac computer. the file was recovered from an old floppy disk. the file has no file extension. i was able to do a hex dump on it and can see a lot of the info i want. i am unable to open it with anything- lots of garbled text. any suggestions? | 18:52 |
| wilee-nilee | prasad, Have you had an install that just worked, if so what release? | 18:53 |
| Dr_willis_ | m1chael, vi can load binary files. you could then copy/paste out what you want | 18:53 |

| usr13_ | prasad: What Language did you install? English? | 19:04 |
| senthil_ | parasad, try sudo apt-get upgrade | 19:04 |
| Jordan_U | senthil_: It depends on what you've actually done up to this point, but most likely your system will still boot fine. Why do you think that you need to compile wifi drivers? | 19:04 |

| pagz | what are peoples thoughts on 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to 13.04 or is a fresh install strongly recommended ? | 19:08 |
| wilee-nilee | senthil_, I assume pidgin does not need a password put it startup applications | 19:08 |
| wilee-nilee | in* | 19:08 |
| Myrtti | pagz: depends on what version you're on now | 19:08 |
| BluesKaj | pagz, it worked for me | 19:08 |
| k1l | pagz: do-release-upgrade is fine. but having backps is always good | 19:08 |
| senthil_ | wilee-nilee i tried that but it shows of the GUI rather i need to start in background without showing UI | 19:09 |
| usr13_ | prasad: If that doesn't fix it, http://askubuntu.com/questions/208346/ubuntu-12-10-shows-no-launcher-or-menu may be of interest. | 19:09 |

| brian__ | Hello everyone, I hope this is easy. I am trying to setup a dual monitor kiosk using ubuntu server 12.04. Everything works well, however, I am trying to get my dual monitors working and it's not working. I have X working with ati fglrx drivers, xorg configured, etc.. Using nodm it boots my .xsession however it rotates one of the monitors. I am trying to achieve, a seperate session per monitor. I think it works, I just can't seem to | 19:11 |
| brian__ | direct the applications to each monitor using .xsession DISPLAY="0.0" etc.. | 19:11 |
| govatent | I'm trying to figure out a bug that i've run into that seems to be pretty new on launchpad. | 19:11 |
| usr13_ | pagz: do-release-upgrade usually works just fine, barring power failure or loose of internet. | 19:11 |
| govatent | senthil_, what do you use now instead of rbox? | 19:11 |
| wilee-nilee | !details > govatent | 19:11 |
| ubottu | govatent, please see my private message | 19:11 |
| usr13_ | *loss* | 19:12 |
| Dr_willis_ | brian__, you might need to use the xhost + localhost command to allow apps to start on the other session befor you do the display/run | 19:12 |
| senthil_ | govatent vlc :) | 19:12 |

| pagz | thanks ill try do-release-upgrade, reinstalling is a big job... without backups.... ill figureout how to do a backup incase anyway | 19:13 |
| prasad_ | usr13_: sorry pc restarted | 19:13 |
| prasad_ | usr13_: there is an message | 19:14 |
| senthil_ | any i veing idea how to change the boot screen background? | 19:14 |
| brian__ | Dr_willis_, sorry, not following. Right now, I am loading chromium-browser through my .xsession and trying to set DISPLAY, that isnt going to work that way? It appears at though, it is just ignoring the 'DISPLAY' and loading it into the same session. | 19:14 |
| prasad_ | usr13_: i want to send u screen shoot | 19:14 |
| Dr_willis_ | brian__, are both sessions ran by the same user? | 19:14 |
| === francisco is now known as Guest40549 | ||
| prasad_ | usr13_: may i? | 19:14 |
| Jordan_U | brian__: Can you pastebin the exact script you're using? | 19:15 |
| brian__ | Dr_willis_, yes, assuming the sessions are automatically created from the xorg.conf? Sorry this is rather new to me. My nodm.conf doesnt really specify anything about multiple sessions, I assumed using DISPLAY= set the session. | 19:15 |
| prasad_ | l | 19:16 |
| Dr_willis_ | brian__, display just sets what monitor it should go to. are you sure you are using the right DISPLAY? | 19:16 |
| prasad_ | usr13_: hello | 19:17 |
| brian__ | Dr_willis_, I looked at the xorg.conf and found out the monitors were connected to DFP1 / DFP2 and set them in the xorg. I have assumed the display would be "0.0" and "0.1" | 19:17 |
| prasad_ | Dr_willis_: any command to start update manager | 19:18 |
| Dr_willis_ | brian__, Im not sure if 0.0 and 0.1 is correct. I tend to use twinview so it does things a little differntly | 19:18 |
| Dr_willis_ | prasad_, try 'update-manager' ? | 19:19 |
| prasad_ | Dr_willis_: yes | 19:19 |
| brian__ | I am thinking nodm.conf needs something special to define multiple sessions? Otherwise my assumption is that multiple sessions are created when DISPLAY is issued, or they are automatically created. If they arnt I need to specify the sessions at some point I would guess. | 19:20 |
| Dr_willis_ | brian__, ive never used nodm. so no idea on that. i thought a seperate X session would be 1.0 and 2.0 | 19:21 |
| brian__ | my X experience is so weak and when I add in the config is all done from the cmdline, it gets even more hairy | 19:21 |
| johnjohn101 | brain__: don't worry Mir will solve everything!! | 19:23 |
| Dr_willis_ | brian__, are you sure you dont need multi-seat support? are you using 2 monitors with 2 differnt desktops/input devices? | 19:23 |

| brian__ | Dr_willis_, This part in particular seems like it work. ( https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Multihead#Separate_screens ) -- However, when calling DISPLAY from inside my .xsession script it doesnt really do anything for me, well, besides make the screen flicker. If I set up a while statement to handle 2 browsers, it just loads a browser, then loads the new one over top, waits the timer, then repeat. | 19:32 |

| wilee-nilee | jMyles, List them and the details of what you have tried. Have you accessed additional drivers in software sources or can you, and can you run a update? | 19:43 |
| mzaza | I can't choose boot menu, it always redirect me to ubuntu operation system choose, any ideas/ | 19:43 |
| Dr_willis_ | jeanbaptiste, not all compiz plugisn may be installed by default. check the package manager for any extras that may need installed | 19:43 |
| jeanbaptiste | ok dr_willis_ btw does compiz effects and stuff work well with unity? | 19:43 |
| mzaza | I even can't get into BIOS? | 19:43 |
| Dr_willis_ | jeanbaptiste, Unity is a plugin for compiz. | 19:44 |
| ronalds | jeanbaptiste, ccsm in terminal, find your future by using eyes, and clicking on things | 19:44 |
| Dr_willis_ | going berzerk with ccsm can break unity. ;) | 19:44 |

| jMyles | compdoc: I am not sure. I'll reboot and find out. | 19:47 |
| compdoc | I laugh in the face of docs! | 19:47 |
| jMyles | wilee-nilee: I have been unable to update, and I haven't tried installation any drivers. The network devices are Realtek RTL8111/8168 and National Semiconducter DP83815 | 19:47 |

| Angelic`` | How to change themes without ubuntu-tweak which won't allow me to choose my own downloaded theme? | 19:48 |
| wilee-nilee | jMyles, realtek needs a wrapper and driver and is a great pain. | 19:48 |
| jeanbaptiste | Omg i enabled wobbly windows and top bar disappears from programs when i un-fullscreen them | 19:48 |
| Dr_willis_ | Angelic``, you are refering to User desktop themes or gdm themes? | 19:48 |
| jMyles | wilee-nilee: Yeah. I had it working with 12.10. The National Semiconductor "just worked" with 12.10 | 19:49 |

| kuranevi | hi | 19:50 |
| kuranevi | i am new in ubuntu | 19:50 |
| brian__ | Dr_willis_, I feel pretty retarded, I can't seem to get anything but chromium to run. Since I have no idea how to start a terminal from inside X without a desktop enviroment | 19:50 |
| kuranevi | i have install the new version from ubuntu studio | 19:50 |
| jMyles | wilee-nilee: There's no option in my bios that is called IOMMU, nor any that seems like it might be a synonym. | 19:50 |
| zwirc | can i change root password from another sudo user in ssh ? | 19:51 |
| kuranevi | i have any questions... | 19:51 |
| Dr_willis_ | brian__, run the command 'xterm' or 'gnome-terminal' same as you are running the browser | 19:51 |
| brian__ | betrayd, I was using 'DISPLAY="0.0" chroumium-browser &' and then DISPLAY="0.1" chroumium-browser | 19:51 |
| brian__ | but spelling if right ofcourse.. | 19:51 |
| Dr_willis_ | zwirc, root user has no password by default. did you set one? | 19:51 |
| wilee-nilee | jMyles, Not sure why you ask me about IOMMU, | 19:52 |
| zwirc | Dr_willis: yes | 19:52 |
| zwirc | but cant remember it because il never use root | 19:52 |
| jMyles | compdoc: There's no option in my bios that is called IOMMU, nor any that seems like it might be a synonym. | 19:52 |
| zwirc | but have a sudo user | 19:52 |
| jMyles | wilee-nilee: Wrong guy :-) | 19:52 |
| zwirc | so can i sudo passwd root? | 19:52 |
| Jordan_U | zwirc: You can, but you shouldn't (and we don't support doing so). | 19:52 |
| kuranevi | is my ubuntu studio a Xfce version? | 19:52 |
| Dr_willis_ | zwirc, its best to not have a password set for root.. since you never use root.. its sort of pointless to have one set | 19:52 |
| betrayd | brian__: your syntax, should be :0.1 and :0.0 (dualhead?) | 19:52 |
| wilee-nilee | kuranevi, How would we know? | 19:53 |
| zwirc | Dr_willis: but i already have one set, so why not change it? | 19:53 |
| Dr_willis_ | zwirc, because its considered a security issue | 19:53 |
| senthil__ | Dr_willis_ now i am trying pidgin client as irc.. looks good tome !! | 19:53 |
| Dr_willis_ | senthil__, pidgin is a rather poor irc client in many ways | 19:53 |
| brian__ | betrayd, it was, sorry, I don't have had sshd installed so I am retyping it and forgetting stuff. Probably not the effective way, I should just install sshd for the time being | 19:53 |

| senthil__ | Dr_willis.. y so?? can u tell me | 19:54 |
| compdoc | jMyles, I thought you said, but what brand/model is the nic? | 19:54 |
| Dr_willis_ | senthil__, xchat or weechat are all i really use. | 19:54 |
| mzaza | I can't get to BIOS settings or boot menu, ubuntu grub shows up no matter what hotkeys i press. I'm on a 64 bit machine. | 19:54 |
| Jordan_U | zwirc: "sudo passwd -l root" will disable root login again. | 19:54 |
| Dr_willis_ | senthil__, pidgin is an IM client that can do irc.. but irc is not its primary focus. so its lacking in many irc client features | 19:55 |
| jMyles | compdoc: The network devices are Realtek RTL8111/8168 and National Semiconducter DP83815 | 19:55 |
| senthil__ | Dr_willis_ features like can u b specific? wat does u see in weechat thatdoes't ve in pidgin. just wanted to know | 19:55 |
| Dr_willis_ | senthil__, wee chat is fully scriptable and has smart filters | 19:56 |
| Dr_willis_ | pidgin can barely do anything.. | 19:56 |
| compdoc | jMyles, are you defining the nic in /etc/network/interfaces? On one system of mine, the onboard RTL8111 is not seen as eth0 | 19:56 |
| jMyles | compdoc: No. Only lo is defined. That's how the installer left things. | 19:57 |

| mustafa_ | *dc | 20:00 |
| MonkeyDust | a dc? | 20:00 |
| compdoc | jMyles, could you pastebin the output of: ls -al /sys/class/net/* | 20:01 |
| mustafa_ | MonkeyDust: disconnect | 20:01 |
| mustafa_ | MonkeyDust: unreliable network, just as my current installation | 20:01 |
| jMyles | compdoc: The machine isn't connected, so I can't easily pastebin it. Looking at the output, it's a symlink that points to ../../devices/virtual/net/lo | 20:01 |
| compdoc | thats all? | 20:02 |
| MonkeyDust | mustafa_ start be describing what you tried, before you came here | 20:02 |
| betrayd | mustafa_: do you still have your old install? | 20:02 |
| jMyles | compdoc: Yep, just the one symlink. Nothing else in that directory. | 20:02 |
| betrayd | we lost him | 20:03 |
| betrayd | guess he got his dc after all | 20:03 |
| mustafa_ | MonkeyDust: could you assist? | 20:03 |
| compdoc | jMyles, likely because networking isnt set up. do you use network manager? if not you should add an entry in /etc/network/interfaces | 20:04 |
| nobbler | Can anyone on 13.4 grep in his *mod files of grub if this symbol apppears anywhere? | 20:04 |
| cordor | Nothing_Much: you are right. got fglrx-legacy working but old xorg doesn't seems compatible with gnome-shell or unity. using openbox now. | 20:04 |
| brian__ | I'm guessing there has to be something in nodm.conf that specifies multiple sessions. No idea what though. | 20:04 |
| senthil6 | Dr_willis_ now i am using weechat.. looks good (except n terminal) | 20:05 |
| mustafa_ | I shouldn't face that problem, I am on a socalled stable release. Why you are changing things to be more complicated. And why should I do all of that to get assistance. I installed linux because i though it would be reliable, not have upgrade to stable release with strange problems. and then can't remove the OS!! It's like jailing someone inside your free opensource OS! | 20:05 |
| jMyles | compdoc: I think I have a bigger problem. I seem to be running kernel version 3.5.0-17 | 20:06 |
| compdoc | jMyles, didnt you say raring? | 20:06 |
| jMyles | compdoc: (based on uname -r) | 20:06 |
| betrayd | mustafa_: why don't we begin with the exact problem, now that you've let that off your chest | 20:07 |
| jMyles | compdoc: Yep, raring. Just installed from a live USB. However, I did keep home and swap partitions from a previous install.... | 20:07 |
| compdoc | 3.8.0-19-generic is current | 20:07 |
| jMyles | compdoc: ls /boot doesn't show that kernel, only 3.8.0-19 | 20:07 |
| wilee-nilee | nobbler, without a live cd/usb all you can do is manual boot grub possibly | 20:07 |
| jMyles | compdoc: Yeah, I know. I was surprised to see the output of uname of course. :-) | 20:07 |
| jMyles | compdoc: So, it's now obvious that these modules aren't loading because it's looking in /lib/3.5.0-17 | 20:08 |
| compdoc | jMyles, you installed some package? | 20:08 |
| mustafa_ | betrayd: I can't get into the boot menu or the BIOS settings, the grub loads just after the vaio logo | 20:08 |
| brian__ | betrayd, Anything in here look like I could set the display/session? | 20:08 |
| jMyles | compdoc: Nope. No packages installed. I can't get online. | 20:08 |
| compdoc | jMyles, maybe its left over in grub | 20:08 |
| jMyles | compdoc: same thought. rebooting and checking grub menu. | 20:09 |
| nobbler | Wilee-nilee: these trys give me abovementioned error, i guess id have to insmod the right module before, but dont know which, hence the request for someone to grep | 20:09 |
| jMyles | compdoc: grub menu says 3.8.0-19-generic | 20:09 |
| jMyles | compdoc: I'm trying recovery mode. | 20:09 |
| betrayd | brian__: have you psted your custom xsession somewhere i can look at | 20:09 |
| mustafa_ | betrayd: By the boot menu I mean boot from usb disk or hdd | 20:09 |
| jMyles | compdoc: Nope. uname -r still says 3.5.0-17-generic | 20:10 |
| brian__ | betrayd, I will, it is very simple though | 20:10 |
| betrayd | mustafa_: most BIOSes have F12 to do that | 20:10 |
| compdoc | jMyles, heh, very weird. maybe you need to erase the whole drive | 20:10 |
| MonkeyDust | mustafa_ the BIOS loads, before ubuntu does | 20:10 |
| jMyles | compdoc: I can't easily do that. Any hunch about how this is possible? | 20:11 |
| mustafa_ | betrayd: Yes I have F10 and it worked in Ubuntu 12.10 and Windows 8 but it doesn't work after upgrading to 13.04 | 20:11 |

| compdoc | jMyles, never seen such a thing. I have seen packages that dont undertand raring yet, because its so new. | 20:11 |

| brian__ | betrayd, I think it is set to no special page loaded.. I'll check | 20:28 |
| jMyles | Jordan_U, compdoc: I'm booting to the live USB again to poke around | 20:28 |
| wilee-nilee | CitrusFlower, http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/core/quantal/universe/base/vlc | 20:28 |
| CitrusFlower | wilee-nilee: I dont have quantal, I have oneric | 20:29 |
| CitrusFlower | wilee-nilee: Ooops, I see a deb-package. Are you referring to that?? | 20:29 |
| brian__ | betrayd, Ok, here is something intriguing.. It loads the first browser in the right monitor. If I alt+f4 it, it then loads the second browser in the left monitor. Which is closer to it working. Where both monitors should have browsers at the same time.. | 20:30 |
| wilee-nilee | CitrusFlower, No, however you are less than two weeks from end of life you might consider an upgrade at this point. | 20:30 |
| betrayd | brian__: you took out the first & it then goes to thenext line in the script | 20:30 |
| jeanbaptiste | Is it possible to disable commercial software from showing in ubuntu software center? | 20:31 |
| Nothing_Much | Did somebody say something to me | 20:31 |
| Nothing_Much | ? | 20:31 |
| mustafa_ | wilee-nilee: do u have experience with uefi bios? | 20:32 |
| Jordan_U | jMyles: md5sum vmlinuz-3.5.0-17-generic: 91833c75122eab625523ffe5f54af3c3 vmlinuz-3.5.0-17-generic :) | 20:32 |
| betrayd | brian__: goes to the next line in the script when the first one exits | 20:32 |
| mustafa_ | betrayd: yes it is, could u further assist? | 20:32 |
| betrayd | mustafa_: have no experience with flawed-from-factory HW | 20:33 |
| betrayd | iow, i dont use uefi-encumbered pos | 20:33 |
| Jordan_U | betrayd: Please watch your language. | 20:33 |
| bucky | mustafa what are you trying to with the UFEI bios | 20:33 |
| CitrusFlower | I have uninstalled vlc but something still happens when I execute command "vlc". What more package must I uninstall? | 20:34 |
| brian__ | betrayd, that is what is weird, I left it in there.. The first line had &, let me try a few things and report back | 20:34 |
| bucky | my typing is terrible today | 20:35 |
| mustafa_ | bucky: Nothing, it's just when i reboot and click F10 to get devices i want to boot from it doesn't respond to my input and goes directly to grub. | 20:35 |
| jMyles | Jordan_U: Incredible. I'd love to know how. I'm poking around now on the live USB. | 20:35 |
| KI4RO | part | 20:35 |
| compdoc | jMyles, most ppl like unetbootin to create usb installers | 20:35 |
| betrayd | k, good luck brian__ | 20:35 |
| Jordan_U | jMyles: I'd love to know how it happened as well. | 20:35 |
| CitrusFlower | executing "vlc" initializes a program in the prompt that says "vlc media player 1.1.12". I wanna get rid of it but I've already done apt-get remove vlc | 20:35 |
| jMyles | compdoc: I used unetbootin for this one. Do you think that might have something to do with it? | 20:35 |
| Angelic`` | Thank you folks. | 20:35 |
| compdoc | maybe unetbootin isnt ready for raring? | 20:36 |
| Angelic`` | Ubuntu is too damn complicated. I am going back to Windows. Thanks for the help folks. | 20:36 |
| compdoc | heh | 20:36 |
| bucky | what version of ubuntu are you running | 20:36 |
| betrayd | learning curve,1 | 20:36 |
| wilee-nilee | mustafa_, Nope I refer user to the ubuntu forum for UEFI, it is a waste of time here. | 20:36 |
| Angelic`` | bucky: Ubuntu 12.10 | 20:36 |
| wilee-nilee | users* | 20:36 |
| Nothing_Much | What's complicated about Ubuntu? | 20:37 |
| wilee-nilee | not much | 20:37 |
| ardian | Hi I have Ubuntu 12.04 installed and I want to install the last version of KDE 4.10, how do I install it | 20:37 |
| thesilence84 | freaking suspend is whats complicated | 20:37 |
| Angelic`` | Nothing_Much: Everything is 'command-based'. I am used of everything being just about GUI based which is Windows. | 20:37 |
| thesilence84 | its driving me nuts | 20:37 |
| bazhang | ardian, try in #kubuntu | 20:38 |
| bucky | when you installed 12-10 did you do a fresh install or upgrade | 20:38 |
| Jordan_U | mustafa_: Are you actually able to interact with the grub menu at boot or has the firmware still not initialised the keyboard at that point? | 20:38 |
| AbdullahDean | hi, i just registered my name for the first time. what should i do now? | 20:38 |
| Nothing_Much | Command-based is easy once you get the hang of it, learning something new is obviously gonna take some time, but I do somewhat agree that there needs to be more GUI based stuff. | 20:38 |
| compdoc | Angelic``, there can be some command line stuff setting it up I gues, but there are guis for most things | 20:39 |
| brian__ | betrayd, well, no idea. No matter what I put in the bash script, it only wants to put one browser up at a time. Maybe there is something to chromium not wanted to have two windows open without a cmdline argument added | 20:39 |
| wilee-nilee | AbdullahDean, wait a couple of weeks and ask for a cloak in #freenode | 20:39 |
| Nothing_Much | Ubuntu actually was one of the first distros that had a GUI for an installer | 20:39 |
| AbdullahDean | thanks wilee. what's a cloak? | 20:39 |
| Nothing_Much | What problems, specifically did you have Angelic``? | 20:39 |
| wilee-nilee | AbdullahDean, It hides user info like your IP. | 20:39 |
| Nothing_Much | *Angelic`` | 20:40 |
| mustafa_ | Jordan_U: I can interact with it | 20:40 |
| AbdullahDean | thanx | 20:40 |
| === A-TCP-BreAKDoWN is now known as An-IP-BreAKDoWN | ||
| Angelic`` | Is there a way I can transfer all my media from Ubuntu without losing it on my way back to Windows | 20:40 |
| Jordan_U | mustafa_: OK, then it sounds like all we need to do is add a proper entry to grub that will boot Windows via UEFI. | 20:41 |
| mustafa_ | Jordan_U: It's just directly after the Vaio Logo I get Grub. Note that I changed my BIOS settings from UEFI to legacy. | 20:41 |
| Angelic`` | back to Windows 8* | 20:41 |
| mustafa_ | Jordan_U: I don't want to boot windows. I want to boot USB Flash drive to reinstall Ubuntu again. | 20:41 |
| wilee-nilee | AbdullahDean, There are channel commands to do other things, you can look on here, http://freenode.net/using_the_network.shtml | 20:41 |
| jMyles | Jordan_U, compdoc: I see no evidence of any sort. Shall I try chrooting and installing the latest kernel package? | 20:41 |
| Nothing_Much | External hard drive dude | 20:41 |
| Jordan_U | jMyles: Yes. | 20:41 |
| Jordan_U | jMyles: What is the creation time on that kernel file? What is the creation time of other files in /boot/? | 20:42 |
| brian__ | betrayd, well that wasnt it. When I alt+f4 the first browser, then it loads the xterm window in the opposite monitor. I feel like it is so close. | 20:42 |
| Nothing_Much | Angelic``, do you have an external drive? | 20:42 |
| betrayd | brian__: it | 20:42 |
| betrayd | still doing things in sequence? | 20:42 |
| jMyles | Jordan_U: April 9 12:53 | 20:42 |
| jMyles | Jordan_U: For the vmlinuz. The initrd is today at 19:12 | 20:43 |
| Jordan_U | mustafa_: So you're currently booting Ubuntu via BIOS (with CSM), is your Windows installation UEFI based or BIOS based? | 20:43 |
| mustafa_ | Jordan_U: I have no OS installed other than Ubuntu. | 20:44 |
| brian__ | betrayd, hot damn! I was missing the & on the first line after I changed it to load xterm on the second line... Now it works with chrome in the right and xterm in the left! | 20:44 |
| Jordan_U | mustafa_: Ahh, I understand now. | 20:44 |
| brian__ | betrayd, I've been killing myself and its a chromium thing | 20:44 |
| jMyles | Jordan_U: I have forgotten how to do a simple chroot and install a package. Is there a link with simple instructions? | 20:44 |
| betrayd | brian__: w00t progress | 20:44 |
| Nothing_Much | Can somebody tell me why I get a black screen on TF2 when I use the Nouveau drivers? | 20:44 |
| betrayd | brian__: sure you want to stay with one type of browser | 20:44 |
| Angelic`` | Nothing_Much: I have a flash drive and that is it.. | 20:44 |
| betrayd | brian__: for troubleshooting | 20:45 |
| brian__ | betrayd, Well, I am checking for some argument for specify the window name or something to avoid a double creation. If that doesnt work, I'll use firefox too for testing | 20:45 |
| betrayd | brian__: ok | 20:46 |
| Nothing_Much | Angelic`` then you either need to re-download everything, use a Cloud service, or learn more about Ubuntu/Linux in general. | 20:46 |
| Jordan_U | mustafa_: Unfortunately, if the only way to get back to your boot firmware's setup screens is by changing a UEFI variable (which is how you did it before, or rather what Windows did to get the menu to show at the next boot), you can only change UEFI variables from an OS that was booted via UEFI. | 20:46 |
| netlar | How would I share a folder between users on the same computer? | 20:46 |
| carrera | which version of 13.04 do I need to detect RAID 0 partitions created with 12.04? | 20:46 |
| lmat | netlar: Add them both to the same group? | 20:46 |
| betrayd | Angelic``: yeah its kind of a commitment, learning curve and all... | 20:46 |
| Jordan_U | carrera: Server or mini.iso. | 20:46 |
| mustafa_ | Jordan_U: And since I can't boot from any device other than HDD, I am stuck forever with my current OS :D ? | 20:47 |
| Nothing_Much | Yeah, but take that chance, I did it with both OS X and a buncha different distros | 20:47 |
| Nothing_Much | It's pretty neat once you have the knowledge to work around almost every OS/Desktop environment | 20:47 |
| netlar | Do I do that in terminal? | 20:47 |
| betrayd | netlar: most times, a filemanager would let you browse | 20:48 |
| Jordan_U | mustafa_: If the only way to get back to your fimrmware configuration screens is by changing UEFI variables, yes. I doubt that's the only way though. Have you looked at your motherboard's documentation, or called the company's tech support? | 20:48 |
| mustafa_ | Jordan_U: No, I'll search for it. | 20:49 |
| mustafa_ | Jordan_U: Thanks... | 20:49 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, thanks u sir. I don't want to install the server for reason that I can tell u later but I tried the mini.iso lastnight. I didn't even have to use the nomodeset option to bypass the Nouveau driver (it crashes with my nVidia M360 ). However, mini.iso did NOT detect my wireless card. Does it need Ethernet? | 20:49 |
| Jordan_U | mustafa_: Also, you can install any other OS you want, you'll just have to jump through a lot of hoops to do so without being able to boot from any other media. | 20:49 |
| lmat | netlar: If you're addressing me, please write my nick so I'll see it :) | 20:49 |
| lmat | netlar: I do everything in framebuffer ^_^ | 20:49 |
| Jordan_U | carrera: Yes, IIRC it needs an ethernet connection. | 20:49 |
| SupaYoshi | Hi does anyone know how to select the best apt-get servers? I am using a vps, and it's connecting with IPV6 to archive.ubuntu.com | 20:50 |

| lomo7 | why when i set on bios boot from usb to install ubuntu, it loads automatic the current ubutnu?? | 20:51 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, you're awesome! | 20:51 |
| SupaYoshi | Thnx | 20:51 |
| CitrusFlower | I've added ppa:videolan/stable-daily and disabled all other software sources, and yet apt-cache policy vlc shows nothing | 20:51 |
| lomo7 | I can't boot from any USB device after installing ubuntu... | 20:52 |
| SupaYoshi | I didnt know you could do that. | 20:52 |
| SupaYoshi | I tried to make it as small as i could already :P | 20:52 |
| wilee-nilee | lomo7, Sometimes that happens use the oer session boot outside the bios. | 20:52 |
| CitrusFlower | It says "(none)" both for installed and candidate | 20:52 |
| wilee-nilee | per* | 20:52 |
| lomo7 | wilee-nilee: how can i force it to boot from usb? | 20:52 |
| carrera | Jordan_U, unfortunately, I don't have access to Ethernet in my apartment so I have to go over to my little cousin's place to try the mini.iso. | 20:52 |
| CitrusFlower | I've added ppa:videolan/stable-daily and also updated apt-get. Still apt-cache policy vlc gives nothing | 20:53 |
| lameuser | iàm trying to | 20:53 |
| carrera | Why did they get rid of the alternate? | 20:53 |
| lmat | netlar: So, if I'm correct, place both users in the same group (see /etc/group) then, have the file you want both to be able to access be owned by that group | 20:53 |
| lmat | netlar: kapish? | 20:53 |
| wilee-nilee | lomo7, Not sure of a force but try the boot from menu I mentioned mine is accessed with f12 at powering on yours may be different. | 20:53 |

| lnostdal | hi, ok 13.04 has horrible graphics performance (Intel GPU here) .. is there some way to fix this or downgrade to 12.10? | 20:56 |
| CitrusFlower | wilee-nilee: ok thx. I give up | 20:56 |
| bazhang | lnostdal, downgrade is full reinstall | 20:56 |
| lnostdal | ok, perhaps i'll do that then .. this is useless | 20:56 |
| wilee-nilee | CitrusFlower, Have you considered upgrading 12.04 will get you vlc 2 and 5 years support. | 20:56 |
| CitrusFlower | wilee-nilee: I say this once. Everytime I update ubuntu my system gets deeply f*cked up for weeks to come | 20:57 |
| CitrusFlower | wilee-nilee: No offense, but that is entering a sh*t hole with no ending in sight | 20:58 |
| wilee-nilee | CitrusFlower, Please don't swear and do a fresh install. | 20:58 |
| compdoc | I run apt-get upgrade a lot | 20:58 |
| Jordan_U | CitrusFlower: Please watch your langue (askterisks or not). | 20:58 |
| supertough | ubuntu loves to install junks into your system | 20:58 |
| CitrusFlower | wilee-nilee: ok no swearing. But fresh install is the worst kind | 20:58 |

| lmat | What is ubuntu alternate? I'm looking at the alternate downloads page and see server, desktop, and alternate. | 21:06 |
| jMyles | I just installed linux-headers-generic, but it did not put a new vmlinuz file in my /boot. Is it supposed to? | 21:06 |
| lmat | Is it a different set of software? A text-based installation script? | 21:07 |
| betrayd | jMyles: no just header | 21:07 |
| lmat | oh sure, right after I ask I find. Nevermind! | 21:07 |
| Jordan_U | jMyles: No. linux-headers is a bunch of .h files. | 21:07 |
| lmat | Looks like it has a different installation routine so that you can choose more options or something. | 21:08 |
| Jordan_U | jMyles: Install linux-image | 21:08 |
| jMyles | Jordan_U: So what do I do? To get the new vmlinuz file to go there? | 21:08 |
| lmat | I guess this is how I would go about creating a really lean ubuntu installation? | 21:08 |
| wilee-nilee | lmat, The alternate is a net install now I believe. | 21:08 |
| jMyles | Jordan_U: Oh really? :-\ Well I already rebooted and I have no network connection again. Can I just run make from /usr/src/linux-headers-3.8.0-19-generic? | 21:08 |
| lmat | wilee-nilee: ahh, good to know :) | 21:09 |
| compdoc | jMyles, Im not sure what youre going to use the system for, but I would just reinstall. what if other things are hosed now? | 21:09 |
| nibbler_ | wilee-nilee: resolved it - with a live-usb actually, but not with its live (linux) part, just just with a working grub i found on it (/ is bcached and encrypted, so not too easy to fix with a random live cd...) | 21:09 |
| Jordan_U | jMyles: No. | 21:09 |
| jMyles | compdoc: Will reinstalling fix it? I got where I am by reinstalling. | 21:09 |
| wilee-nilee | nibbler_, Ah, cool, | 21:09 |
| compdoc | jMyles, well, that needs fixing too | 21:10 |
| compdoc | jMyles, Im just thinking there may be references to that wrong kernel in other places | 21:11 |
| compdoc | doubtful your installer stopped there | 21:12 |
| AbdullahDean | what are some good irc channels | 21:14 |
| AbdullahDean | ? | 21:14 |
| compdoc | good for what purpose? | 21:14 |
| bazhang | !alis | AbdullahDean | 21:14 |
| ubottu | AbdullahDean: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels. Read "/msg alis help list" for help and ask any questions about it in #freenode. Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu* or /msg alis list *http* | 21:14 |
| AbdullahDean | good for learning about linux | 21:14 |
| AbdullahDean | thanks | 21:15 |
| jMyles | Jordan_U: Installing linux-image still doesn't seem to do it. How can I repopulate my /boot? | 21:16 |
| wilee-nilee | jMyles, If you are crooting to add the kernel are you running update-grub | 21:17 |
| wilee-nilee | chrooting* | 21:17 |
| compdoc | The update-grub command is used to generate and update the menu.lst | 21:17 |
| jMyles | wilee-nilee: Well I don't want to run update-grub until I have the right vmlinuz | 21:17 |

| tgm4883 | wilee-nilee, the mac one is 64-bit | 21:20 |

| lmat | Just to let you know, the alternate installation is a waste of time. If you can, just stick to the desktop one ^_^ | 21:21 |
| tgm4883 | wilee-nilee, I'm burning a 32-bit regular iso as a test | 21:21 |
| Jordan_U | jMyles: "apt-get update" first so that it installs a new kernel package, or "sudo apt-get remove --reinstall linux-image-3.8.0-19-generic". | 21:22 |
| hd5770 | is Ubuntu safe to use on a ssd ? | 21:22 |
| ThatOneRoadie | hd5770: Yes, but don't forget to consider whether or not you want to trim the SSD | 21:22 |
| wilee-nilee | tgm4883, I believe it works. | 21:23 |
| ThatOneRoadie | See http://askubuntu.com/questions/18903/how-to-enable-trim | 21:23 |
| ThatOneRoadie | tgm4883: 32-bit ISOs will work on 64-bit hardware, but not the other way around. | 21:23 |
| jMyles | Jordan_U: You just barely beat me to it. I had just run that command when your comment popped up. :-) | 21:24 |
| jMyles | Jordan_U: So yeah, that did it. Now to reboot. | 21:25 |
| tgm4883 | ThatOneRoadie, right, but this is specifically for an Imac, which IDK if that differs or not | 21:25 |

| tgm4883 | ThatOneRoadie, well, specifically what I mean is that there is a special AMD64 Mac ISO, but not a i386 Mac ISO | 21:27 |
| tgm4883 | ThatOneRoadie, but it does look like I can boot the regular desktop i386 ISO on an iMac, which makes me wonder why a special ISO is needed for AMD64 iMacs | 21:27 |
| Jordan_U | tgm4883: Because the 32 bit image doesn't have UEFI support, while the 64 bit image does (yes, I meant exactly what I said :). | 21:29 |
| matzipan | anyone around from the ubunt-sdk team/ | 21:29 |

| matzipan | Neytiri: 30 mins | 21:31 |
| matzipan | hey guys, anyone from the ubuntu-sdk team? | 21:31 |
| Jordan_U | tgm4883: 32 bit intel Macs use EFI (which is not quite the same as UEFI), as do 64 bit intel macs. But their EFI implementation (on earlier machines) doesn't handle disks designed to be bootable with both UEFI (What new non-mac PC's use instead of BIOS) and BIOS systems. | 21:32 |
| Neytiri | ok then theremust be somethign wrong casue its been close to an hour and its not even close yet | 21:32 |
| tgm4883 | Jordan_U, ah, good to know | 21:32 |
| brian__ | betrayd, thanks for your help.. I am getting a little at a time. I have them both loaded now, I had to specify --user-data-dir=/blah for them to load in seperate instances. I need to config them now as all, they are loading with some crazy window sizes | 21:32 |

| tannji | hd5770: Read this, it helped me on my install http://preview.tinyurl.com/ctk2vbu | 21:32 |
| Jordan_U | tgm4883: So, ironically, by removing [U]EFI support in the image, it allows Apple's firware to not choke, and lets it boot via their BIOS implementation. | 21:33 |
| chaos7theory | If /proc/cpuinfo is reporting the wrong frequency, is that a bug I should report? | 21:33 |

| usr13_ | Jordan_U: (or to whom it may concern): Why can't a 32bit ISO be burned to a USB stick that is partitioned with GTP scheme? | 21:34 |
| tannji | hd5770: oops, meant this link: http://tinyurl.com/ctk2vbu | 21:34 |
| Jordan_U | usr13_: 1: iso files aren't "burned" to USB drives, they're either copied bit for bit to the drive (via dd) or their contents are copied as files to a filesystem on the USB drive, and then a bootloader is installed to the drive. 2: You can make a 32 bit Ubuntu LiveUSB with a drive using GPT, if not with Ubuntu's startup disk creater (I've never tried) then with grub manually. | 21:37 |
| === Geveze-User-203 is now known as Turk | ||
| usr13_ | Jordan_U: I stand corrected, the term "burned" is not accurate in reguards to creating USB installer. | 21:40 |
| usr13_ | Jordan_U: ... I only used the term burned in an attempt to be breif | 21:42 |
| chaos7theory | usr13_: I wouldn't suggest partitioning a USB with GPT as as I understand it uses more overhead due to the protective MBR it also uses and having the table on both the beginning and the end of the disk for anti-corruption sakes. GPTs would be more useful on a hard drive where you expect to use more than 4 primary partitions. Most importantly, GPT isn't so widely compatible outside of Linux. For isntance, in Windows it only can be writ | 21:43 |
| chaos7theory | ten over with 64-bit Windows using UEFI, which in turn is only supporting for 7+. | 21:43 |
| chaos7theory | On top of that, I don't believe Mac, as well as Windows, supports detecting and mounting multiple partitions from a USB Drive. | 21:43 |
| bambam1 | Is it just me or is Ubuntu Software Center very slow? I'm able to install everything I need really quickly with synaptic (or through apt-get), but for some reason Ubuntu Software Center is painfully slow | 21:44 |
| usr13_ | chaos7theory: How do we create a UEFI System Partition? (Do you have an alternative?) | 21:44 |
| chaos7theory | You'd have to use a partitioning software to make sure only the needed partition is primary whereas the rest are logical. | 21:44 |
| chaos7theory | usr13_: What're you trying to do exactly? | 21:45 |
| usr13_ | chaos7theory: If you do not know what the conversation is about, why then did you enter it? | 21:45 |

| tannji | bambam1: which version of Ubuntu? | 21:47 |
| Turk | hi | 21:48 |
| Jordan_U | chaos7theory: usr13_: GPT loses you at most 1 MiB in a drive, that's tiny on almost any drive. Windows Vista+ supports reading and writing to GPT disks on BIOS based systems, just not booting from them. OSX handles multiple partitions on a GPT drive just as well (in a few small ways better than) as it does with msdos labeled drives, and Windows handles multiple parititons on removable media just as well (see: poorly) with GPT and ... | 21:48 |

| tannji | bambam1: ah... well, if its any consolation, USC was a lot slower on 12.10, lol It seems to run fine for me now on 13.04 with ssd drives. | 21:49 |
| bambam1 | tannji: Synaptic seems to run orders of magnitude quicker | 21:49 |
| bambam1 | Does it take a long time because USC has to ask Amazon and Canonical's other ad partners if it's okay? | 21:50 |
| tannji | Bam, that it does. | 21:50 |
| tannji | lmao | 21:50 |
| tannji | could be... have them all disabled tho | 21:50 |
| Jordan_U | linuxuz3r: Unfortunately that sounds like a problem with your router/modem (a common one) rather than with Ubuntu. | 21:51 |
| linuxuz3r | ok | 21:51 |
| bambam1 | tannji: How do I disable them? I stopped using USC when it first came out because it was a disaster back then, thinking about giving it a second chance | 21:51 |
| matzipan | anyone familiar with the SDKHelper qt component? I'm trying to run an app that depends on it. It cannot find it... sorry for spamming the channel. I'm a bit desperate | 21:52 |
| chaos7theory | Jordan_U: I can attest to personal experience that Windows has no (built-in) support for multiple partitions, as I use them all the time. I have to use third-party software to change the flags of the partitions around so as to mount a different partition @_@ | 21:52 |
| Jordan_U | linuxuz3r: Going back a little, at the very least you'll need to enable port forwarding if your router uses NAT, but even then you might only be able to connect using your internet facing ip if you're connecting from another machine from the outside (rather that going out to your router and back into your own network, which for some reason many home routers/modems seem to choke on even though it should be valid). | 21:53 |

| rodger_nc | I just updated to 13.04 from the last version 12.10?? and my video works to log into the new OS but when I start an application - most of the time - the video is completely jumbled - I tried resetting the display in system settings but that did not help - not an admin - what do I do.... | 22:48 |
| histo | rodger_nc: if you are not an admin how did you upgrade? | 22:48 |
| rodger_nc | home computer | 22:49 |

| histo | rodger_nc: what kind of video card do you have? | 22:49 |
| rodger_nc | not an admin - meaning not a newbe but not experienced | 22:49 |
| Jeruvy | Guest28002 you shouldn't have to do anything special to use those volumes. | 22:49 |
| Dr_willis | Guest28002, what are You trying to do ecxactly? | 22:49 |
| histo | Guest28002: Either way you have to trust some other file system interface with ext3 or ntfs. With ntfs the fuse driver will be used in linux. With ext3 you'd have to add support to windows. The choice is yours. | 22:50 |
| Jeruvy | Guest28002 permissions are always worth reviewing before transfering. | 22:50 |
| PoolShark_1 | I'm still downloading 13.04 on my 1.5mbit DSL | 22:50 |
| histo | Guest28002: if it were me I'd just use ntfs and be done with it. Keep in mind that checking the drive in the event of an error will require windows | 22:50 |

| ubottu | 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".

| Dr_willis | try using just archive.ubuntu.com | 23:06 |
| Dr_willis | !headers | 23:07 |
| ubottu | To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages | 23:07 |

| minetape | How would one go about installing GRUB and puppy linux to a flash drive /from/ ubuntu that already has ubuntu installed on it? I am asking for a pastebin'd list or a list in a .txt file of commands to enter into terminal /in order/ due to the fact that we recently lost home wifi >.< | 23:08 |
| histo | minetape: well download puppy linux iso and use unetbootin to install to usb or possibly startup disk creator in ubuntu | 23:09 |
| betrayd | minetape: not possible to do wired connection? | 23:09 |
| histo | minetape: or if puppy is a hybrid iso you can just dd if=/path/to/puppy.iso of=/dev/ofusb | 23:09 |
| minetape | histo: im looking to install GRUB as well so i can choose to boot from either ubuntu or puppy linux | 23:09 |
| Neytiri | what address do i use for those servers? | 23:09 |
| wilee-nilee | minetape, You can dual boot puppy and grub in ubuntu will see it, you could boot the puppy niso from grub if you want. | 23:10 |
| wilee-nilee | ISO* | 23:10 |
| wanksta | histo, i don have that 12.10 | 23:10 |
| Dr_willis | minetape, do a full install of ubuntu to the flash. then customize the grub menus to boot your puppy setup | 23:10 |

| wilee-nilee | to* | 23:11 |
| minetape | like i said, id kinda like a pastebin list on commands to plug into terminal to install grub, then use puppy's installer to install it to the flash drive, but im not sure how that would be possible due to my fear of ubuntu and puppy linux colliding | 23:11 |
| wanksta | histo, is it posssible to shift direct to 13.04 | 23:11 |
| Dr_willis | minetape, install ubuntu, configur grub to boot the puppy iso. keep the puppy save file on one of the ubuntu partitions. | 23:12 |
| wilee-nilee | wanksta, If there was a way would we be hiding it from you, lol. | 23:12 |
| Dr_willis | no need to do an install of puppy to the flash. | 23:12 |

| minetape | Okay | 23:12 |
| minetape | Here's what im looking for: | 23:12 |
| hmms | thanks all :) | 23:12 |
| minetape | Ive got ubuntu installed on the thumb drive already, please note this | 23:13 |
| Dr_willis | minetape, a live install or a full install? | 23:13 |
| minetape | I want to also install puppy to the thumb | 23:13 |
| minetape | Dr_willis: live | 23:13 |
| minetape | And i want a menu to choose from puppy or 'buntu | 23:13 |
| OerHeks | pendrive | 23:14 |
| minetape | i want puppy to be live 's well | 23:14 |
| wanksta | wilee-nilee, okay but if found 12.10 image file is it possible to run it as upgrade to 12.10 | 23:14 |
| Dr_willis | minetape, easiest way would be to use the various tools at the PenDrivelinux site to make a Live-multi-os usb | 23:14 |
| wilee-nilee | minetape, That is easy puppy or ubuntu can use grub 2 | 23:14 |
| histo | minetape: ahh use yumi or some other app from pendrivelinux.com to accomplish that. Or install grub and have it load iso's there are posts on the forum on how ot do it. | 23:14 |
| minetape | Dr_willis: im hoping to use Terminal to acomplish the task | 23:15 |

| codygman | I'm on a debian squeeze system trying to fix an xubuntu botched update. I'm currently in a chroot and need to know how to give it internet to finish the update with: apt-get upgrade --fix-broken | 23:15 |
| Dr_willis | minetape, you would have to customize the live usbs syslinux config files to boot the puppy install OR the puppy iso file. and im not sure it can boot the iso file that way | 23:16 |
| Dr_willis | minetape, puppy forums should detail an entry for syslinux to boot puppy | 23:16 |
| minetape | you mean | 23:16 |
| minetape | Dual boot? | 23:16 |
| Dr_willis | minetape, you boot one or the other.. so thats a dual boot.. not sure what else you would mean. | 23:16 |
| histo | codygman: does the debian system have internet? | 23:17 |
| wilee-nilee | codygman, is it broken or just stopped | 23:17 |
| minetape | oookeerrr, ill refer to googel x) | 23:17 |
| codygman | histo: yes | 23:17 |
| histo | codygman: then the chroot should have internet | 23:17 |
| Jordan_U | codygman: mv /path/to/chroot/etc/resolv.conf{,-bak} && cp /etc/resolv.conf /path/to/chroot/etc/ | 23:17 |
| codygman | wilee-nilee: the xubuntu won't bootup | 23:17 |
| codygman | Jordan_U: Alright. Hopefully debian squeeze/xubuntu resolv.conf will be compatible. | 23:18 |
| wilee-nilee | codygman, try apt-get -f install If debian is on the net xubuntu is. | 23:18 |
| histo | codygman: or just put nameserver 8.8.8.8 in your resolv.conf in the chroot | 23:18 |

| histo | minetape: startup disk creator doesn't work that way | 23:24 |

| Dr_willis | !find haldaemon | 23:48 |
| ubottu | Package/file haldaemon does not exist in raring | 23:48 |
| Dr_willis | emes hal has been depreceated/removed - i think the hal package sort of sets up a fake hal enviroment. | 23:49 |
| Dr_willis | !hal | 23:49 |
| ubottu | hal is in the process of being deprecated. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Halsectomy and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_abstraction_layer for more info. | 23:49 |
