| utfans05_2 | bray90820, there are well established procedures for putting ubuntu for a mac, have you done any google searching to find some howto's or you just going from word or mouth for this guys? | 00:02 |
| michael87 | the new handbrake did not get around the arccos protection :(. | 00:02 |
| bray90820 | i had ubuntu on there before | 00:02 |
| bray90820 | i am just checking what this guy said | 00:03 |
| michael87 | I'm going to learn how to compile makemkv. But damn I wish there was a simplier option. Dvdfab keeps crashing in wine and so many other people figure out how to get it to work frusterating | 00:04 |
| ThePiousPriest | I have returned | 00:04 |
| utfans05_2 | bray90820, this dude didnt know what he was talking about, its totally fine to throw ubuntu on mac | 00:04 |
| bray90820 | good | 00:05 |
| bray90820 | thank you | 00:05 |
| bray90820 | i kind assumed it was anyways | 00:05 |
| utfans05_2 | bray90820, follow this how to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro | 00:05 |
| bray90820 | :P i know how | 00:05 |
| bray90820 | it was on there before :P | 00:05 |
| utfans05_2 | bray90820, ok | 00:05 |
| bray90820 | and i have been a linux user for about 10 years | 00:06 |
| bray90820 | so i am all good | 00:06 |
| michael87 | does anyone know how to either get around a dvd's arcos protection or how to freaken set up dvdfab under wine? | 00:07 |
| michael87 | this is really really frusterating | 00:07 |
| fellayaboy | sorry thepiouspriest my internet is messing up | 00:07 |
| pragmaticenigma | michael87: You need to install the Ubuntu restricted extras. This will not guarantee playback, as most of the "encryption" is done physically to the disk which makes it unplayable in linux | 00:08 |
| yofun | hey my sound icon in the top tray doesnt work :/ why? how do it fix this? | 00:09 |
| Dr_Willis | michael87: dvdfab worked for me under wine last i tried it i recall. | 00:09 |
| ThePiousPriest | anyone else have suggestions to get a belkin db 750 to work in 13.04? | 00:10 |
| Dr_Willis | michael87: i only needed to use dvdfab for these anoying 'new' dvds that have annoying copyprotection on them (in addation to the decss stuff) | 00:10 |
| yofun | hey my sound icon in the top tray doesnt work :/ why? how do it fix this? | 00:10 |
| michael87 | Dr_Willis, that is exactly where I am at | 00:11 |
| yofun | noone? :( | 00:11 |
| yofun | hey my sound icon in the top tray doesnt work :/ why? how do it fix this? (13.04) | 00:11 |
| Dr_Willis | michael87: I just used dvd fab and had it 'image' the dvd to a deprotedted iso file. i then used other tools on it. | 00:11 |
| Scriptonaut | hey guys, I have a hdd with 400 or so GB dedicated to windows, and 250GB free. I was trying to install debian in that spare 200GB, and it was going fine, however wheezy (just came out) seems rather unstable. I decided to use ubuntu instead, but forgot to delete the debian partition. So, ubuntu installed itself on some measly 11GB partition. My question is, how can I expand my partition to take up the rest of the space? I hvae since d | 00:13 |
| yofun | hey my sound icon in the top tray doesnt work :/ why? how do it fix this? (13.04) | 00:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Scriptonaut: gparted can resize. use it from a live cd | 00:13 |
| utfans05_2 | Scriptonaut, gparted | 00:13 |
| Scriptonaut | I have gparted | 00:13 |
| === sr105 is now known as sr105|away | ||
| Scriptonaut | oh, so I can't do that inside ubuntu? | 00:14 |
| Scriptonaut | I have to maek a live cd? | 00:14 |
| Dr_Willis | you DONT resize a partion thats mounted | 00:14 |
| Scriptonaut | ok, gparted wouldn't let me, good thing | 00:14 |
| michael87 | Dr_Willis, I did what you said. Attempting to reopen dvdfab. Hope it doesn't crash | 00:14 |
| Scriptonaut | I usually use unetbootin, however it doesn't seem like I was able to make it work with gparted | 00:14 |
| Scriptonaut | do you know what way I should format my usb drive? | 00:15 |
| Scriptonaut | unetbootin doesn't seem to do it | 00:15 |
| Dr_Willis | michael87: i used dvdfab under wine a few months back to rip several dvds to video file. Not tried it lately | 00:15 |
| yofun | hey my sound icon in the top tray doesnt work :/ why? how do it fix this? (13.04) | 00:15 |
| utfans05_2 | Scriptonaut, you could always just do a reinstall and set the partition correctly | 00:15 |
| Scriptonaut | that's true, however it seems like a bit of a waste of time | 00:16 |
| Scriptonaut | I just wanted to see if it would be easier this way | 00:16 |
| yofun | hey my sound icon in the top tray doesnt work :/ why? how do it fix this? (13.04) | 00:16 |
| ThePiousPriest | Any Luck anyone had with that Belkin Adpater? | 00:16 |
| utfans05_2 | Scriptonaut, did you install from a live version of ubuntu? if so just load that back up and open a terminal and run gparted | 00:17 |
| Scriptonaut | I think I just used a netinst | 00:17 |
| Scriptonaut | but I deleted it | 00:17 |
| Scriptonaut | from the USB | 00:17 |
| Scriptonaut | doing other things | 00:17 |
| utfans05_2 | Scriptonaut, just redownload the iso | 00:17 |
| Scriptonaut | I have gparted iso right here, I'm curious what format I shoudl use for bootable usbs | 00:18 |
| michael87 | Dr_Willis, I think you have to have certain override or whatever to make it work properly. I dunno but it keeps crashing on me wither I have any over rides on or not. | 00:18 |
| Scriptonaut | I have disk utility open | 00:18 |
| Dr_Willis | michael87: overrides? Hmm.. dont recall ever needing to do anything | 00:18 |
| utfans05_2 | Scriptonaut, you should be able to use unetbootin to install that iso on a bootable usb drive and do it that way | 00:18 |
| Dr_Willis | michael87: im on a Vbox setuo right now - or i would try it. ;) | 00:19 |
| Scriptonaut | ya, I did that. HOwever it's complaining about the format | 00:19 |
| Scriptonaut | it doesnt' recognize fat32 aparently | 00:19 |
| Scriptonaut | well, W95 Fat32 | 00:19 |
| Scriptonaut | and it won't let me format it because apparently the drive is budy | 00:19 |
| Scriptonaut | sorry for noob questions | 00:19 |

| utfans05_2 | Scriptonaut, you have to unmount the drive before you can do that | 00:20 |
| michael87 | Dr_Willis, crashed again :(. and I have done it at default many many times before I gave an overdrives a shot. | 00:20 |
| yofun | meh :/ i get ignored :( | 00:20 |
| Dr_Willis | michael87: im not even sure what an overdrive is. ;) | 00:20 |
| Dr_Willis | yofun: flood the channel get ignored.. you could give more details.. and someone MIght know somthing | 00:21 |
| yofun | well idk what else to give | 00:21 |
| michael87 | Dr_Willis, override. Sorry family is frusterating me lol | 00:21 |
| Dr_Willis | does SOUND work? and its just that one mixer thats not working? | 00:21 |
| yofun | the sound does work | 00:21 |
| yofun | but the top tray control doesnt work | 00:22 |
| ThePiousPriest | I'm surprised my Logitech g930 headset works straight off the install | 00:22 |
| Dr_Willis | michael87: i dont recall ever using overrides either. | 00:22 |
| Scunizi | michael87: do you mean "overclock"? | 00:23 |
| michael87 | Dr_Willis, ok forget overrides. I'm canelling them. But by default the sucker shuts itself down. | 00:23 |
| Scunizi | yofun: how does the top tray control not work? you mean it won't control the volumn? | 00:23 |
| michael87 | Scunizi, no I'm not overclocking anything. Tryying to rip a dvd with a newwer protection. though this is an older dvd. as far as I know only dvdfab can bypass it and it keeps shutting down | 00:24 |
| yofun | when i cick it i get nothing | 00:24 |
| Dr_Willis | i imagine its set to handle the pcm or wav 'channel' instead of the main channel.. but im not sure where to change what channel it handles. | 00:24 |
| Scunizi | michael87: ah.. sorry. I came in late and didn't catch the beginning. | 00:24 |
| yofun | Scunizi: when i cick it i get nothing.but the control in the settings does work | 00:25 |
| yofun | but not the top trey | 00:25 |
| yofun | tray* | 00:25 |
| Scunizi | yofun: is this a fresh install? | 00:25 |
| yofun | yes ubuntu 13.04 | 00:25 |
| michael87 | Scunizi, it is fine. if you can help that would be great. This is frusterating. I gave up windows 7 for raring ringtail and except for this tiny very annoyying problem I am enjoyying it emensly | 00:26 |
| Scunizi | yofun: have you done all the updates? | 00:26 |
| yofun | no | 00:26 |
| Scunizi | yofun: do them.. might just fix your issue | 00:26 |
| yofun | kk | 00:26 |
| Dr_Willis | michael87: whats really sad is that some of those uber-protected dvds wont even play on a real dvd player for me. | 00:26 |
| michael87 | Dr_Willis, sad. But there has to be a way to do this easily on ubuntu. and this dvdfab thing is really really bothering me. | 00:28 |
| Scunizi | michael87: last I heard libdvdcss2 was the correct library for ripping.. but it's been a while.. also Handbrake is the only program that I've tried it from. | 00:28 |
| Dr_Willis | michael87: dvd fab has so many differnt tools.. i dont even rember what i used or how i did it.. it was about 7 mo ago also. | 00:28 |
| === root is now known as Guest66957 | ||
| Dr_Willis | Scunizi: the issue is there are new generations of addational copy protection on many Video DVDS. not just the decss stuff. | 00:29 |
| Scunizi | Dr_Willis: i kinda figured.. It's been a while since I've tried to rip anything. | 00:30 |
| utfans05_2 | Scriptonaut, did you get it figured out? | 00:30 |
| Scunizi | michael87: Dr_Willis if dvdfab runs in windows only or wine (maybe) how about a vbox vm of winXX with a storage location on the NX side of the ripping equation?? | 00:31 |
| Dr_Willis | michael87: what part of dvd fab are you trying to use? Passkey? dvdrip? or dvdcopy ? | 00:31 |
| johnjohn1011 | a lot of sites are saying dvdfab runs great in wine. is this as good as handbrake? | 00:33 |
| pragmaticenigma | Handbrake requires the content to be decrypted before it can process the video | 00:34 |
| Dr_Willis | johnjohn1011: handbreak is more of a special purpose reencoder.. dvdfab does a bit more. | 00:34 |

| tgm4883 | Dr_Willis, for what? | 00:38 |
| Dr_Willis | most of the.. err.. 'new videos' i find these days from.. err.. 'sites' :) are not in mkv any more.. | 00:39 |
| wilee-nilee | Mneumonic, Deal breaker, heh don't let the door hit you on the way out. ;) | 00:39 |

| WeThePeople | hi, anybody know how to install ubuntu 12.04.2 in windows 8 | 00:41 |
| Mneumonic | okay does anyone else have any constructive help? | 00:41 |
| WeThePeople | with windows 8 | 00:41 |
| Mneumonic | WeThePeople, I've only had luck with the 64 bit versions of 12.10 and 13.04 in a dual boot with Win8 | 00:41 |
| Mneumonic | Ubuntu claims that 12.04.2 64 bit works but it doesn't on my system | 00:42 |
| hdon | hi all :) can anyone tell me the meaning of this?? http://pastebin.mozilla.org/2380618 | 00:42 |
| WeThePeople | mneumonic, how did you go about trying to install 12.04.2 | 00:42 |
| hdon | why is a .so stripped? | 00:42 |
| Mneumonic | I tried both a disc and usb to instlal 12.04.2 64 bit and had no luck | 00:43 |
| Mneumonic | both 12.10 and 13.04 dual boot perfectly | 00:43 |
| earl2 | hi...can someone help me set up ssh on a device :) I'd like to remote desktop into it which I guess means x11 forwarding but I'm a bit daunted... | 00:43 |
| Mneumonic | except both of them give my system a lot of problems | 00:43 |
| WeThePeople | ok thanks | 00:43 |
| wilee-nilee | WeThePeople, If you have uefi wubi does not install I believe. | 00:43 |
| wilee-nilee | gpt antway | 00:43 |
| WeThePeople | wilee-nilee, 12.04.2 64bit will recognize efi | 00:44 |
| wilee-nilee | WeThePeople, The wubi? | 00:44 |
| WeThePeople | idk | 00:44 |
| wilee-nilee | WeThePeople, I don't think so. | 00:44 |
| WeThePeople | it has a seperate efi folder on the disc | 00:44 |
| WeThePeople | idk if that is wubi | 00:45 |
| wilee-nilee | WeThePeople, Wubi is not installed from the disc. | 00:45 |
| Mneumonic | WeThePeople I'm not trying to be mean but you should stop trying to get 12.04 to work with windows 8. I spent a few days trying and got too frustrated | 00:45 |
| wilee-nilee | anymore you would use the wubi app, and as far a s I have seen wont install due to gpt partitioning. | 00:46 |

| Mneumonic | in 13.04 my wireless randomly stops working and I have to disconnects and reconnect to get it working again. Any ideas? | 00:52 |
| Dr_Willis | hdon: its possible thers indicator-applets for those tasks taht would work/show up in the gnome panel. | 00:54 |
| Dr_Willis | ThePiousPriest: i find it best to see whats in teh store then look for reviews once you are there to see what chipset it has and how well it works on ubuntu | 00:55 |
| Dr_Willis | ThePiousPriest: or just order from amazon. ;) | 00:55 |
| ThePiousPriest | I'm perhaps being too greedy looking for AC ones that would work in Ubuntu when 802.11 AC hasn't even been finalized yet | 00:55 |
| Dr_Willis | ThePiousPriest: watch out for brands/makes that use the same product name. but may have differnt chipsets. My video capture usb dongle was that way. :( the newer ones have a diffent chipset. | 00:56 |
| ThePiousPriest | Ah, gotta find the Dual Band ones since my router is a DB router | 00:56 |
| Mneumonic | in 13.04 my wireless randomly stops working and I have to disconnects and reconnect to get it working again. Any ideas? | 00:56 |
| netlar | Dr_Willis: is there a list in linux for what chipsets are supported? | 00:57 |
| Dr_Willis | ThePiousPriest: theres those wifi->network cable gizmos that plug in to your pcs NIC. (or on a PS3 or xbox3 or whatever) that work with no drivers. :) its like a mini router.. but they are mor eexpensibe | 00:57 |

| ubottu | For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 00:57 |

| Dr_Willis | ThePiousPriest: the upside is they work with most anything that can have a browser to configure the device.. downside is they are like $40 | 01:00 |
| ThePiousPriest | Eh, that doesn't bother me, gonna check to see if I have a port open for it on my motherboard | 01:00 |
| Dr_Willis | ThePiousPriest: i have seen some wifi dongles that actually mention 'linux' on the supported OS's :) | 01:00 |

| Mneumonic | ThePiousPriest this is highly unlikely to be WoW | 01:04 |
| ThePiousPriest | blizzard has internal linux resources that are used to test WoW | 01:04 |
| ThePiousPriest | Not wow, but some title | 01:04 |
| ThePiousPriest | I'm hoping SC2 | 01:04 |
| kilmer | No, must be wow pls =) | 01:05 |
| Mneumonic | My guess is a MOBA game | 01:05 |
| kilmer | would only make sense | 01:05 |
| kilmer | most of ther customers are in wow. | 01:05 |
| ThePiousPriest | I know Blizzard has crapped over D3, but getting a "AAA" game on Linux is important | 01:05 |
| Mneumonic | WoW is written in directx | 01:05 |
| Mneumonic | WoW has terrible OpenGL support | 01:05 |
| ThePiousPriest | Conjecture on my part is that Gabe and Valve are taking their sweet time with HL3 is that they want to make it revolutionary AND support Linux right out of the box | 01:06 |
| Dr_Willis | Blizard has annoyed me too much.. i wont buy their products any more. ;) but this is ot.. | 01:06 |
| ThePiousPriest | fair enough | 01:07 |

| tgm4883 | jrib, well, it was a good effort | 01:25 |
| Dr_Willis | computer88: try wine --version perhaps? | 01:25 |

| ThePiousPriest | I hope so, otherwise I will rage hard lol | 01:26 |
| Dr_Willis | ThePiousPriest: i find it funny that people use wifi cards.. then the antannas are normally positioned in such bad spots.. behind a metal case. right up to a wall, often sitting way down low on the floor. | 01:26 |
| ThePiousPriest | I can't move my tower, router is downstairs and people would get pissed if I ran cabling | 01:26 |
| ThePiousPriest | too lazy to run through the walls | 01:26 |
| ThePiousPriest | If I was, I would run cat 6 to future proof | 01:27 |
| Dr_Willis | if the router is right below or above you . you might need to rearange your antannas a bit for best signal. | 01:27 |
| computer88 | shouldnt wine 1.5.29 be just as good or better than 1.5.13 | 01:27 |
| ThePiousPriest | yeah, it's almost right below me | 01:27 |
| Dr_Willis | computer88: normally thats the case.. newer vesions have more bug fixs and other features.. | 01:27 |
| ThePiousPriest | After finishing my Net+, Linux + is my next stop | 01:27 |
| Dr_Willis | ThePiousPriest: You might want to angle the antannsas so the are parallwl to the floor a bit. and if the router has an antanna . allign them that way also | 01:28 |
| computer88 | ubuntu 12 percise with wine has a platinum rating for office 2010(installer) but ringtail with 1.5.29 has no rating for office | 01:28 |
| Dr_Willis | because no one has rated it yet perhaps computer88 . | 01:29 |
| jrib | computer88: I think those ratings are submitted by users so no one has gotten to it probably | 01:29 |
| jrib | computer88: it's your time to shine ;) | 01:29 |
| computer88 | should i use the ubuntu 12 instead of 13 for my M$ office | 01:29 |
| Dr_Willis | best would be to use Libreoffice computer88 | 01:30 |
| ThePiousPriest | Anyone have their Linux+? | 01:30 |
| computer88 | ubuntu 13 has only games mainly with at rating at wine.org | 01:30 |
| Dr_Willis | i saw some mention of a differnt office suite the other day.. but i dont use that stuff much | 01:30 |
| johnjohn1011 | computer88 i don't think it matters for wine which version | 01:30 |

| shape | Dr_Willis: Hey, you here? | 01:50 |
| Dr_Willis | yep. for a little bit at least | 01:50 |
| shape | Dr_Willis: It's a quick thing anywya. My setup is : 80GB HDD with 2 partitions 1 windows 7 1 ubuntu. And I want to move everything to a new bigger HDD, clone everything. I've tried Clonezilla and it breaks my windows install and can't recover it. Do you know any other cloning software? | 01:52 |
| Dr_Willis | you could alwyas use a live cd and 'dd' then resize the partions | 01:52 |
| shape | Dr_Willis: any links to that? I'm afraid to use DD :( | 01:53 |
| Dr_Willis | dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=4m then when done.. use gparted to tweak the new hd. | 01:53 |
| Dr_Willis | ive done that in the past to 'clone' a 8gb usb flash install of ubuntu onto a HD. | 01:54 |
| === dominic_ is now known as mdih | ||
| shape | Dr_Willis: so that just clones sda to sdb drive to drive and then i'd just have to resize with gparted? | 01:54 |
| Dr_Willis | yep. or make a new partion for the unused space. | 01:54 |
| shape | Dr_Willis: what is the bs for? | 01:54 |
| Dr_Willis | which is what i was doing. | 01:54 |
| Dr_Willis | block size. | 01:54 |
| Dr_Willis | otherwise dd will be very slow | 01:55 |

| computer88 | how can i update wine from the commandline | 01:55 |
| shape | Dr_Willis: I see | 01:55 |
| Dr_Willis | 4M for 4 meg. | 01:55 |
| Dr_Willis | computer88: sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade upgrades the system to the latest thats in the repos | 01:55 |
| computer88 | ty ty | 01:56 |
| shape | Dr_Willis: thing is clonezilla already has a drive to drive thing, but I didnt use it because I wanted the partitions to be one after the other and not all over the place. I guess that doesn't really matter right? | 01:56 |
| Dr_Willis | all over the place? i dont see how they would be all over the place | 01:56 |
| shape | Dr_Willis: well the unpartitioned space, that im resizing into the new ones, would be on a different part of the platter | 01:57 |
| shape | Dr_Willis: which would slow it down a bit since it has to jump, etc. | 01:57 |

| pliz | hi all! upgraded from 12.10 to 13.04 on macbook pro 6.2 and suspend and shutdown stopped working. anyone seen something like that? | 02:10 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: the reason is I saw you in the windows channel yesterday and I wanted to know what Stryyker recommended me to use for cloning instead of Clonezilla | 02:10 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: It should be 20 hours ago or so | 02:10 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Acronis I believe | 02:10 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, What release of W7 do you have? | 02:11 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: that was just for partition alignment not for cloning, it had 3 nouns or something | 02:11 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: ultimate | 02:11 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Heh, I use the onboard imager myself it has never failed. | 02:11 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: WOW, nvm he JUST replied, wtf | 02:12 |
| wilee-nilee | ah easeus | 02:12 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, You can image windows 7 from the backup options | 02:13 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: and then restore that image with the windows DVD correct? | 02:13 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Yep, it will not clone the linux is all. | 02:14 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: but if I want to restore it to a fresh partition, will that work? As in if I create an image on some separate HDD, how will it restore it, I have to give it a new partition ,or leave unpartitioned space, etc.? | 02:14 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Yes, I transfered my W8 from a spinning HD to a SSD with it. | 02:15 |
| Gautam | utfans05: flashplugin-installer did the trick! thanks! | 02:15 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: and it will fix the mrb automatically, etc.? | 02:15 |
| utfans05 | Gautam, your welcome | 02:15 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, It does not save the mbr, but all you have to do put the clone of ubuntu after and run a update-grub or reload the mbr, which is pretty easy. | 02:16 |
| wilee-nilee | shape,Just don't go all OCD on that 63 2048 space preceding the sda1 partition. | 02:17 |

| russ5811 | Hi. Can anyone tell me how to disable keyring after auto login in 13.04? Thanks | 02:17 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: what i mean is, when i restore the windows image, it will also restore it;s own mbr with it's own windows bootloader, etc. right? As in it will be fully functional doing the image way. | 02:18 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, I believe it just loads the image not the mbr, but that isan easy fix as well. | 02:18 |
| wilee-nilee | bootrec.exe /fixmbr from the booted recovery or install disc cli | 02:19 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: yeah, but yesterday those didn't work. So what I was asking is windows does something EXTRA to make sure the loaded image will damn work, right? | 02:19 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Honestly from watching you, you just messed with the wrong things and tried to recover a bricked partition that you bricked. | 02:20 |
| wilee-nilee | user error in other words | 02:21 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: I tried cloning it again today, even with the default clonezilla settings and with no partitioned second drive, just the windows and it did the same. | 02:21 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, I was not there, all I can say I have never had clonezilla fail. | 02:22 |
| pliz | excuse me, no one with suspend shutdown problems? | 02:22 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: however as we speak i just decided to clone disk by disk (not partition by partition) and then just resize with gparted | 02:22 |

| wilee-nilee | for itself | 02:23 |
| utfans05 | russ5811, its all based off the same thing so that same process should work | 02:23 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, They here is do not resize until you have run it and defragged...etc. | 02:24 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: really? what is it called? | 02:24 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Disk manager I think, runs in admin. | 02:24 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: wow, disk manager can rezise now? sweet. So what you meant above was just to defrag first and then resize, correct? | 02:25 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, I would do the transfer, amke sure it boots, it may want to run a auto-chkdsk, and then resize with the onboard. | 02:26 |
| wilee-nilee | make* | 02:26 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: What about the ubuntu partition, there is no defragging to be done because of the ext4 correct? I can just resize with gparted | 02:27 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, How full is that windows partition? | 02:27 |
| a | a | 02:28 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Correct no defragg with linux. | 02:28 |
| === a is now known as Guest1800 | ||
| shape | wilee-nilee: 95% full, but moving it to a bigger one of course. Clonezilla already gave it 50GB more with the disk to disk clone. | 02:28 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Ah, that is to full no wonder you have had problems. | 02:29 |
| ubuntu__ | Guten Tag! | 02:29 |

| horrorxstory | hey | 02:33 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, I would pull out some of that extra stuff to a external and run some cleaning tools and make sure it is fully defragged if it were me, maybe even a chkdsk. I have found windows does need maintenance in general, much more then linux. | 02:33 |
| horrorxstory | windows just annoys every fiber of my being | 02:34 |
| wilee-nilee | I rarely use it except for word in writing grad papers, but keep it in perfect condition. | 02:35 |

| horrorxstory | since i can run office on wine | 02:35 |
| wilee-nilee | horribly yes | 02:36 |
| horrorxstory | lol mine runs smooth | 02:36 |
| wilee-nilee | I would use libreoffice first | 02:36 |
| horrorxstory | so does spotify which im very confused about | 02:36 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: but for grad papers, if not libreoffice, why not just run it in a vm and not care about housekeeping it so much | 02:36 |
| horrorxstory | this is true | 02:36 |
| horrorxstory | so my webcam isnt working though | 02:37 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, I don't like vm's I want to OS's I have installed to run at full throttle. the maintence is not that much really if you do it, not wait till its broke. Most of which can be put on a schedule. | 02:38 |

| wilee-nilee | I do have a vm of XP it deserves being there, lol | 02:44 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: btw clonezilla just finished the disk to disk clone and I have all the other space unallocated, With ubuntu and gparted i know there won't be a problem expanding the partition but for windows to expand it do you recommend like you said earlier to use disk manager? | 02:45 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, First I don't use clonezilla that way I save the image to a external then reload it, I have seen another have problems that way, it may have been you. But see if it boots and resize it with its partitioner. If you had saved that with packets you could have a partition already there and not have to resize using clonezilla. | 02:48 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: it did boot, all was fine, it's like the old HDD, and it just has the extra space unallocted. | 02:48 |
| ezio | raaaaaaaaaaaaaage ... kerberos is messing with my head | 02:49 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Cool, the onboard has a resize option I think it will allow you to expand it into the unallocated. | 02:49 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: I never resized with clonezilla. It was a weird thing that happened, clonezilla said there will be new partitions with no unallocated space but now I see it lied and all the extra space is unallocated. | 02:49 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: yep | 02:50 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, I meant using clonezilla, it is designed when saving in packages to be put in an equal or larger partition. | 02:50 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: btw, does it matter if I defrag first and then expand or I can defrag after expanding. It shouldnt matter right, since the expansion will just be seen as empty space. | 02:50 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, I doubt that disc is fully defraggable that full. | 02:51 |

| makara | wilee-nilee, what is command to autofix? | 02:53 |

| utfans05 | veryhappy, what questions do you have? | 02:55 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: so I guess gparted it is :( | 02:57 |
| veryhappy | utfans05: well, they removed the overscan setting in the nvidia control center and that's why i can't control the position of my hdmi picture anymore, i'm clueless what to do now. | 02:57 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, You have to have an unallocated to expand it, I would resize the linux leaving the unallocated for the windows resize. | 02:57 |
| wilee-nilee | resize the linux with gparted, windows can't do it. | 02:57 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-performance/extend-volume-greyed-out-disk-management-windows/a56eae24-8d07-4956-9430-b2e79686af3a | 02:57 |
| utfans05 | veryhappy, what driver are you currently running? | 02:57 |
| veryhappy | nvidia-current | 02:58 |
| veryhappy | utfans05: nvidia-current | 02:58 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, That is an extended you made in ubuntu with a logical ubuntu partition right? | 02:58 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: yes | 02:58 |
| utfans05 | veryhappy, try doing the info in the 2nd post from this link http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php?topic=106650.0 | 02:59 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Use the correct tools then, gparted for linux, and windows for the NTFS. I assume here that the windows partitioner will allow a extend at this point if there is a unallocated. | 03:00 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: it doesn't | 03:00 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, You have no space right. | 03:00 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: no, it just won't let me | 03:00 |
| johnsmith | Firefox crashes whenever I open a website that has a video. It could be an ad video, but It still crashes. I have no problem with youtube, though. | 03:01 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Is there an unallocated space after the ntfs? | 03:01 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: i think it's because sda1 is primary and sda2 is extended | 03:01 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: not after, it's at the end | 03:01 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, are you running the correct adobe flash plugin? | 03:01 |
| johnsmith | I should be. I have adobe flash plugin for firefox. | 03:02 |
| === asdf1 is now known as mrdavid | ||
| wilee-nilee | shape, You have to resize the area after the nfts, leaving an unallocated. You can't do this is one swoop with the windows partitioner. | 03:02 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, let me do some research for a min, ill get back to you | 03:02 |
| johnsmith | Okay, thanks | 03:02 |
| veryhappy | utfans05: so i'm making my own resolution? | 03:02 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: yeah I see, what I have to do is expand the ext4 and then shrink it from the left | 03:03 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Yep. | 03:03 |
| utfans05 | veryhappy, if you read the documentation you basically are, but your doing it using a logical starting point. | 03:03 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, the ext4 and extended are two partitions I assume you know this. | 03:03 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, is it the flash player thats crashing or firefix? | 03:04 |
| wilee-nilee | one inside the other | 03:04 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: correct | 03:04 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, firefox* | 03:04 |
| johnsmith | Firefox crashes. | 03:04 |
| vacho_ | guys,.. how do I mounth a usb drive? | 03:04 |
| vacho_ | I can't get it to work | 03:04 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, You can just espand the extended on the left end and move the whole partition at once in gparted. | 03:05 |
| wilee-nilee | right end* | 03:05 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, which version of firefox are you running? | 03:06 |
| johnsmith | 20 | 03:06 |
| Dr_willis | vacho_, sudo mount /dev/sdd1 /media/make-a-dir (for example) | 03:06 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: one sec, i dont think i'm not getting you. So first I have to expand the extended of course, but how do you move it? | 03:06 |
| veryhappy | utfans05: so what does that mean i'm using a logical starting point? | 03:07 |
| === jack is now known as Guest88463 | ||
| vacho_ | Dr_willis: after I connect the usb, it does not appear in /dev/ | 03:07 |
| utfans05 | veryhappy, do you remember what your previous settings were? | 03:07 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, I resize extended partitions by right clicking in the list on the right, otherwise you have to try to get the cursor right on its edge. Then move the logical inside. The extended is the container, you have to have room inside to move thnkgs. | 03:08 |
| veryhappy | utfans05: you mean my standard resolution? | 03:08 |
| wilee-nilee | things* | 03:08 |
| utfans05 | veryhappy, how much of an overscan were you using previously? | 03:08 |
| wilee-nilee | partition list on the left is what I meant* | 03:08 |
| vacho_ | Dr_willis: ? :) | 03:09 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: i see, one sec booting live cd i'll try it in a giffy | 03:09 |
| veryhappy | utfans05: it said 64 | 03:09 |
| wilee-nilee | with the swap off and nothing mounted | 03:09 |
| utfans05 | veryhappy, is that the only thing you remember? | 03:09 |
| Dr_willis | vacho_, then you either have a bad port. or failing usb device | 03:10 |
| veryhappy | well, i can boot into windows to see how the resolution is there | 03:10 |
| veryhappy | it's a computer with dual boot not this one i'm sitting on right now | 03:10 |
| veryhappy | so i'm staying connected on here | 03:10 |
| digdeep | "/" is 50% full. Did tar -cvf x.tar ~/something. It fails and "/" is 100% full. Delete x.tar now 90%. where I can find more space | 03:10 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, try apt-get install flashplugin-installer and see if that fixes it | 03:11 |
| acovrig | I am using ubuntu 13 on my late 2011 MacBookPro and noticed that my battery halves when in Ubuntu (and my CPU is warmer), so I'm wondering how hard it is to underclock... (would it help it be coolor and battery last longer)? | 03:11 |
| utfans05 | veryhappy, yes please do that | 03:11 |
| johnsmith | Actually, I just uninstalled that because it would make adobe freeze when I played youtube videos on fullscreen. | 03:12 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, that is the correct plugin for firefox.. thats an odd one... | 03:12 |
| veryhappy | johnsmith: did you actually try to uncheck the hardware graphics mode? | 03:12 |
| johnsmith | I have it uncheck on firefox. | 03:13 |
| veryhappy | johnsmith: i mean in the flash plugin | 03:13 |
| johnsmith | I'm not sure how to do that. | 03:13 |
| qlocks | HI guys I accidentally installed Python 2.7.3. on Ubuntu 12.04 from source and erased the original installation of Python. Is there a way I can recover from this error? | 03:14 |
| johnsmith | When I try to uncheck on the flash player settings, nothing happens and I can't get the box to dissappear. I have to reload the page. | 03:14 |
| blackbear008 | uninstall scripts. | 03:14 |
| blackbear008 | find it . | 03:14 |
| qlocks | blackbear008: Do you mean make uninstall? | 03:15 |

| alien2050 | Does anyone know how to fix locale when gnome-terminal displays weird output -> error: âvarâ was not declared in this scope <-- while using gcc (I only care about the display, not the error itself since I'm debugging)? I'm using en_CA.UTF-8 but en_US.UTF-8 or en_US does the same thing.... probably a simple locale issue but I'm scratching my head... | 03:19 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: it won't let me expand the extended partition into the unallocated space | 03:19 |
| utfans05 | veryhappy, so using that number you need to figure out what the line in your xorg.conf file should read, the link i sent you shows how to do that calculation | 03:20 |
| utfans05 | veryhappy, and where to place the option line in the xorg.conf file | 03:20 |
| veryhappy | utfans05: thank you very much | 03:21 |
| veryhappy | you helped me out | 03:21 |

| shape | wilee-nilee: ill have to disconnect from here brb | 03:22 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Are you sure you are clicking on the extended to resize and everything is unmounted? | 03:23 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: everything is unmounted (no key next to it) im using the live cd | 03:23 |
| WeThePeople | wilee-nilee, hii got 12.04.2 working along side windows 8 | 03:23 |
| WeThePeople | hi* | 03:23 |
| WeThePeople | it was easy | 03:24 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, im not quite sure whats going on with your setup, i would recommend removing firefox and starting over if you can, maybe you got a package messed up? | 03:24 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, Make sure it is the extended you are clicking on it has to be its edge or in the partition list is easiest. | 03:24 |
| WeThePeople | im on a asus k55a laptop | 03:24 |
| lotuspsychje | utfans05: interesting tnx! | 03:24 |
| utfans05 | lotuspsychje, you're welcome | 03:24 |
| johnsmith | Okay, I'll try that. | 03:24 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, let me know if that works | 03:24 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: daaaaaaaaaaamn it worked! it has to be RIGHT on the edge | 03:24 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, exactly. | 03:25 |
| johnjohn1011 | WeThePeople: did you have to do anything special? | 03:25 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: yeah I was unwillingly selecting the ext4 | 03:25 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, An easy mistake, now you know. ;) | 03:25 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: might as well have right-clicked on it in the beginning | 03:25 |
| WeThePeople | johnjohn1011, not out of the ordinary, but you have to use boot repair | 03:26 |
| shadows | any self-proclaimed SQL gurus? | 03:26 |

| wilee-nilee | shape, That warning shows when you resize linux at times, an easy fix if it happens. | 03:27 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, reload the mbr, or I just use supergrub to boot in and reload it from the desktop myself. | 03:28 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: any links to documentation forthat? Ive never done that before | 03:29 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, here is the supergrub tool, from the desktop it is just sudo grub-install /dev/sdX X is the HD would be sda probably in you case. | 03:31 |
| wilee-nilee | http://www.supergrubdisk.org/ | 03:31 |
| johnsmith | Well, one of the problems is fixed, but my youtube videos still freeze when full screen. | 03:31 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: AWESOME, Thanks! | 03:31 |
| Lleyton | just testing weechat | 03:31 |
| wilee-nilee | shape, THis is a link I give others in general for reloading grub in different situations. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing There is also the bootrepair tool | 03:32 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, try disabling the hardware acceleration in flash settings. | 03:32 |
| somsip | !test | Lleyton | 03:32 |
| ubottu | Lleyton: Testing... Testing... 1. 2.. 3... ( by the way, remember that you can use /join #test ) | 03:32 |
| johnsmith | I tried, but it won't let me click anything. It just shows the box. | 03:32 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: if it's just about reinstalling grub I;ve done that before. It was the supergrub that didnt ring a bell. | 03:33 |
| shape | wilee-nilee: and ive used boot-repair several times. wilee-nilee: It's taking 30 minutes to move everything etc. I have to go out get groceries. etc. Everything should be fine I guess. Thank you SO MUCH for your help. I'll brb later | 03:33 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, did you try after reinstalling firefox? | 03:33 |
| johnsmith | yes | 03:34 |
| lotuspsychje | johnsmith: you have the same problem on chrome? | 03:34 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, try doing this sudo mkdir /etc/adobe | 03:34 |
| utfans05 | echo "OverrideGPUValidation=true" >~/mms.cfg | 03:34 |
| utfans05 | sudo mv ~/mms.cfg /etc/adobe/ | 03:34 |
| johnsmith | I don't use chrome, but I don't think chrome uses flash for youtube videos iirc. | 03:34 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, i've never used chrome, so im not sure either | 03:35 |
| somsip | johnsmith: it uses flash, but it's an internal plugin rather than the flashplugin. IIRC | 03:35 |
| johnsmith | It says 'etc/adobe' doesn't exist. | 03:35 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, if you sudo mkdir /etc/adobe it will create it | 03:36 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, im sorry i ment to say you have to run that in a terminal | 03:36 |
| somsip | johnsmith: you missed the / off /etc maybe? | 03:36 |
| johnsmith | Oh no, sorry. It says it already exists. | 03:36 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, then just move to the second line | 03:36 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, echo "OverrideGPUValidation=true" >~/mms.cfg | 03:37 |
| johnsmith | I entered it into the terminal and nothing happened, so I'm assuming it did it. | 03:38 |
| moonchrome | can someone tell me how can I install a package from a ppa that is for 12.10 on 13.04 ? | 03:38 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, it did it, did you run all 3 lines? | 03:38 |
| johnsmith | I'm not sure what that means. | 03:39 |
| utfans05 | johnsmith, go ahead and try to run a fullscreen video | 03:39 |
| moonchrome | person who uploaded it said package will work on 13.04 but it won't install it with apt-get install it doesn't show it in packages I'm assuming I need to enable something because the package is flagged for 12.10 ? | 03:39 |

| siggib | OK thanks | 04:17 |
| wilee-nilee | orated_, There are I forget the names, but they do not work in any efficient or usable may in my opinion. | 04:19 |
| wilee-nilee | way* | 04:19 |
| Hussaind | wilee-nilee: On older versions of Ubuntu it shows the exact RAM allocation, then why the difference in 12.04 ? | 04:20 |
| wilee-nilee | Hussaind, I'm not sure exactly what or where you are talking about. | 04:21 |
| wilee-nilee | Hussaind, Ram is counted as 1000MB at times ans 1024B at times, depends on who or what is doing the counting. | 04:22 |
| wilee-nilee | s/and/MB | 04:22 |
| orated_ | wilee-nilee: I found https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OCR#Tesseract, I'll try that. Thanks for your opinion though. | 04:23 |
| wilee-nilee | orated_, Cool I was looking d=for that page, best if luck is all I will say. ;) | 04:24 |
| Hussaind | wilee-nilee: I have allocated 1GB RAM to a Ubuntu VM. It is created on a XCP node. But it shows 989MB inside the VM. I wanted know where the remaining RAM is getting utilized | 04:24 |
| orated_ | Thanks | 04:24 |
| wilee-nilee | Hussaind, If you notice the difference is about 24MB it is how the allocation and how the allocator of the ram and ubuntu read it as data. The ram amount, is just being counted differently. | 04:26 |

| wilee-nilee | WeThePeople, YOU installed from the disc and made partitions I assume. | 04:32 |
| WeThePeople | all i did was disable secure boot and changed the boot order and it installed | 04:32 |
| WeThePeople | wilee-nilee, i made the partitions in windows 8 | 04:33 |
| wilee-nilee | WeThePeople, I thought t was you asking about a W8 and wub earlier, I remember you working on the install though. | 04:33 |
| WeThePeople | yeah, and it works | 04:33 |

| makara | Dr_willis, I got sorted with software centre. I had an invalid PPA for Docky. Why it would crashe and blame X system... | 04:46 |
| Dr_willis | invalid ppa crashing the software center? golly. Id file a bug on that. | 04:47 |
| makara | I let it send through its own error report | 04:47 |

| hdon | hi all :) i have installed indicator-multiload but it does not show up on my desktop after reboot. what do i do to make it start up when i login? | 04:55 |
| wilee-nilee | hdon, It is an applet for the panel you have to launch it I believe, look for it in the dash. | 04:58 |
| hdon | wilee-nilee, gnome allowed me to add it to the panel so that it started up when gnome started up :C can't do this in unity? | 04:58 |
| hdon | it seems like other indicators load automatically... network icon, messaging icon, volume control icon, clock, account, power | 04:59 |

| Dr_willis | ive seen some auto start. and some not | 05:01 |
| wilee-nilee | hdon, Does it show when launched, if so add it to the sratup applications. | 05:01 |
| wilee-nilee | startup* | 05:01 |
| hdon | wilee-nilee, it does. how do i add it to the startup applications? | 05:02 |
| hdon | thanks btw | 05:02 |
| wilee-nilee | hdon, You want to load the startup applications first with this command, just copy and paste to the terminal. sudo sed -i 's/NoDisplay=true/NoDisplay=false/g' /etc/xdg/autostart/*.desktop update-manager -d Then look for startup applications in the dash. | 05:04 |
| Dr_willis | cant say ive ever needed to do that with any of the indicator applets. | 05:05 |
| wilee-nilee | Dr_willis, Yeah may need a reboot it is probably already there. | 05:06 |
| hdon | wilee-nilee, that doesn't look like it will "load startup applications" but thanks for pointing me toward /etc/xdg/autostart | 05:12 |

| * hdon investigates | 05:16 | |
| michael87 | Thank god. I found an alternative to dvdfab on linux. I'm using magic dvd copier. it still requires wine to run since it is ment for windows but still. works like a charm on raring ringtail | 05:18 |
| Dr_willis | michael87, it bypasses that idiot uber-protection? | 05:19 |
| hdon | wilee-nilee, thanks i found the appropriate file and set NoDisplay=false. question: does NoDisplay means it won't run the process or it just won't show up visually? | 05:19 |
| michael87 | Dr_willis, affirmative :) | 05:19 |
| michael87 | Dr_willis, I've known about it for a long time. great program. but paid for. free rips 5 times then 20 bucks for perminant serial I think | 05:20 |
| Dr_willis | michael87, or.. you reinstall it in wine.. .;) and do 5 more | 05:20 |
| hdon | why is my load so high? i don't see a lot of CPU or disk activity. no resources seem contended for. | 05:20 |
| michael87 | Dr_willis, ohhhhh :) | 05:20 |
| Dr_willis | michael87, thats what i was doing with dvdfab | 05:20 |
| michael87 | Dr_willis, genius. makes having linux a perk over a pain lol | 05:21 |
| Dr_willis | michael87, on windows those things always seem to install some reg key so they can detect they were installed befor. ;) | 05:21 |
| wilee-nilee | hdon, Not sure, as suggested just installing it should have it auto starting, have you rebooted since installing it. | 05:22 |
| hdon | wilee-nilee, yes, which i think is ridiculous. usually i would just log out of the desktop environment and back in, or restart gdm. in any case, i did reboot, and it did not show up. but the NoDisplay option for this autostart file was true before, now it's false, so i hope it will show up this time :) | 05:23 |

| daemeon | Hey all. I recently upgraded to the newest release of Ubuntu and now vmware workstation borked. I downloaded the kernel headers as per vmware's request and yet it acts as though the header files are not there. Can anyone help me resolve this issue? | 05:24 |
| michael87 | Dr_willis, I wander if avidemux will run under wine. The linux version seems to stop at 2.5. but windows already has 2.6. resyncing audio for certain files on 2.5 say mp4, is always off sync with 2.5. but 2.6 fixed that | 05:25 |

| Dr_willis | question dosent really make much sence to me | 05:33 |
| wilee-nilee | lol, gotta give details. | 05:33 |
| jair | I installed the nvidia drivers and now my system is unoperable ;( I will need to see if I can get it to boot is some mode I can remove the drivers for nvidia, native and the one that came with ubuntu 13.04 | 05:34 |
| Dr_willis | !text | jair | 05:35 |
| ubottu | jair: To start your system in text-only mode append 'text' (without the quotes) to the kernel line in the grub menu. You can access the grub menu by pressing Esc (Grub legacy) or Shift (Grub2) during boot. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Text%20Mode | 05:35 |
| jair | any help will be appreciated | 05:35 |
| Dr_willis | boot to text mode. try to repair the system | 05:35 |
| Dr_willis | how did you install the drivers? | 05:35 |
| jair | Dr_willis: the native one disabling x and followinf the script screen instructions | 05:35 |
| jair | Dr_willis: the ubuntu one, the one on the package software ubuntu center | 05:36 |
| jair | the system is not even letting me to enter grub it does not show grub menu anymore | 05:38 |
| jair | I was trying to do esc and shift during the boot but nothing | 05:38 |
| jair | now I have a message about wlan0 failed but black and white screen | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis | jair, you mean the .run drivers from the nvidia site? | 05:39 |
| jair | yes | 05:40 |
| Dr_willis | Hold shift to show GRUB - if its hidden by default | 05:40 |
| jair | but now I get the purple screen but ubuntu is not showing me the grub menu | 05:40 |
| jair | Dr_willis: alright will try that again | 05:40 |
| Dr_willis | grub menu would be BEFOR you see the purple screen | 05:41 |
| jair | Dr_willis: good I am in grub | 05:41 |
| jair | Dr_willis: I think this is grub2, it is default installation of 13.04 | 05:42 |
| Dr_willis | grub2 has been the default for like 2+ years. ;) | 05:42 |
| jair | Dr_willis: I think I want to do a few things: 1) remove the last driver I installed from ubuntu center opengl nvidia 173 I think | 05:42 |
| jair | Dr_willis: alright I am there | 05:42 |

| jair | Dr_willis: in options I see and advance and see recovery mode | 05:43 |
| Dr_willis | change 'quiet splash' to be 'text' and it should boot to text mode. and get you to a console. | 05:43 |

| Dr_willis | Im not sure there much point in a lowlatency kernel for most people these days | 05:45 |
| jair | ok booting text | 05:46 |
| jair | Dr_willis: booting in text mode only and got a prompt | 05:46 |
| jair | should I get rid of the low latency kernel? | 05:46 |
| Dr_willis | why do you even have it installed? | 05:46 |
| jair | Dr_willis: like I said I have an IBM/Lenovo W510 machine with core i7 | 05:47 |
| jair | Dr_willis: I thought it was optimized for intel x86_64 | 05:47 |
| Dr_willis | low latency - is normally for people doing audio work i belive. or som eothe rspecial cases | 05:48 |
| jair | Dr_willis: hmm well one thing I noticed on the new ubuntu 13.04 it is awesome audio. | 05:49 |

| xro | Hi, i just notice that there is an anti-virus in the ubuntu 13.10... Why? is there new threats? | 05:58 |
| Dr_willis | xro, every av app ive seen in linux mainly scans windows files for windows viruses.. | 05:59 |
| theadmin | xro: 13.10 isn't supported. But in general, antivirus software helps against Windows viruses, so that other machines don't get infected (via USB sticks or network, that is, if you copy/share infected data) | 05:59 |
| Dr_willis | what av app are you refering to xro > | 05:59 |
| xro | Dr_willis, i have done my update... unicx anti virus package was installed... or updated | 06:00 |

| Dr_willis | cant say ive noticed that package here.. or ever heard of it | 06:01 |
| aeon-ltd | assuming there isn't would be folly | 06:01 |
| xro | yep, but f anti-virus are in default package, that should mean virus targeting linux more than windows, no? | 06:01 |
| xro | oh, in fact it is clamav... | 06:02 |
| xro | mostly used to scan attachement | 06:02 |

| jamesarnett | I would have to agree with auronandace on this one jony | 06:43 |
| AtuM | adzy, it's clearly hard to tell what vm software is best since it depends on what you aim for. for a normal desktop usage virtualbox is quite nice. I personally use kvm, because I use it for production systems.. for clustering I'd probaby choose xen since it offers more features | 06:43 |

| jony | should I try to upgrade to 12.04? it won't be slow? | 06:46 |
| Dr_willis | you might want to use Lubuntu instead of Ubuntu Jony | 06:46 |

| auronandace | !lubuntu | jony | 06:46 |

| WXZ | Dr_willis: is that in the sound preferences, because I don't even see anything except the hdmi option | 06:47 |
| jony | before this I already used Lubuntu but I couldn't install the RDP server :( | 06:47 |
| jamesarnett | ijony: i would agree with ubottu on this one | 06:47 |
| jony | before this I already used Lubuntu but I couldn't install the RDP server :( | 06:48 |
| Dr_willis | WXZ, weird. pavucontrol is a more advanced sound config tool. not installed by default | 06:48 |
| DarkShad0w | hi guys.. | 06:48 |
| DarkShad0w | how are u?? | 06:48 |
| wells | welcome | 06:49 |
| tr010101 | Dr_willis | 06:50 |
| Jordan_U | jony: What desktop environment are you currently using? | 06:50 |
| gustav | The basic install of exim4 can't send e-mail to gmail when configured for 'Internet.' Should I report a bug? | 06:50 |
| WXZ | Dr_willis: well I opened up pavucontrol, but I really only still see the hdmi | 06:50 |
| jony | ubuntu 10.04 | 06:50 |
| Dr_willis | WXZ, id check out lspci again. it could be theres 2 sound cards (one for hdmi, one for analog) and the sytems only seeing one of them/has drivers for one. | 06:51 |
| Jordan_U | jony: Try Lubuntu 12.04. If you have a problem installing an RDP server we can help with that, or you can even test installing it in the liveCD before installing it. | 06:51 |
| WXZ | Dr_willis: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation Device 1e20? | 06:52 |
| Dr_willis | might be worth hitting up askubuntu.com and the forums for that device. | 06:53 |
| jony | at the end of the installation script of the RDP server it asked me the type of the GUI... at that step what should I choose in case of Lubuntu? maybe there was the problem | 06:53 |
| Dr_willis | what types were the options jony? | 06:53 |
| Jordan_U | jony: "LXDE" probably. | 06:53 |
| Dr_willis | Ive only used VNC> never rdp | 06:54 |
| jony | Dr_willis, gnome, unity 2d, lxde, kde | 06:55 |
| Dr_willis | lubuntu is lxde | 06:56 |
| jony | Dr_willis, I will try once again with Lubuntu | 06:57 |
| jony | I can say that with Lubuntu 12.04 this old PC worked very well | 06:57 |
| jony | how does work the nick registration on this channel? | 06:59 |

| trupheenix | jony Dr_willis wells? :) | 07:01 |
| jony | the registration is for good? | 07:02 |
| jony | how it can recognize me next time? | 07:04 |
| Dr_willis | !identify | 07:04 |
| ubottu | You can identify automatically by using your NickServ password as the server password in your IRC client. When identifying manually, do NOT send the command from a channel's tab, as a typo will give away your password. If that happens, identify and then type « /msg NickServ set password <new-password> » in the server tab as soon as possible. | 07:04 |
| Dr_willis | register, then you identify next time you connect... | 07:05 |
| Dr_willis | see #freenode for details. | 07:05 |
| jony | where can I register? | 07:05 |
| Dr_willis | read what the bot said about 'register' above. | 07:05 |

| ra-fi | hi when i try to change copy a file from my host to at91sam9263 board using scp it shows WARNING: Your password has expired. Password change required but no TTY available. lost connection, can you tell me what is that problem | 07:14 |
| n8w | im planing to try out 64bit system and my intention is to share my home folder between the system..both systems r ubuntu. How is it with the user rights?shall i choose the same user name for the new system as i have on the old one? | 07:14 |
| auronandace | n8w: you'd have to if you want to share it (the home folder is your username) | 07:15 |
| n8w | auronandace, ye thats right...the point here is that i wanna try 64b system besides of my 32b one...if that turns out to be a bad choice i wanna return to my old one with as little cfg changes as possible | 07:16 |
| auronandace | n8w: then i wouldn't share | 07:17 |
| cosimoooo | /who am i | 07:17 |
| Arkhana | cosimoooo: You are Cosimoooo | 07:18 |
| Arkhana | :D | 07:18 |
| auronandace | n8w: you can share /home itself and use different usernames for each install (they will both be in the same partition but under separate folders) | 07:18 |
| auronandace | n8w: that would be a whole lot easier to manage | 07:18 |
| n8w | auronandace, hmm thats right.. | 07:19 |
| === Piscuek is now known as Joanet | ||
| === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman | ||
| auronandace | n8w: i never bother sharing home folders, i just keep a storage partition to share what i need (also avoids config problems and you can use it with multiple OSes) | 07:24 |
| n8w | auronandace, ye that is a long story behind this and why i wanna do this | 07:26 |
| n8w | auronandace, i have made a backup,so at worst, i can always ow if it fcks up | 07:26 |
| auronandace | n8w: you may be surprised how many don't make backups, i'm very glad you do | 07:27 |
| n8w | auronandace, there is a great change that i will stay with the 64b system,so why to bother creatin some extra stuff, username,new home folder etc | 07:27 |
| n8w | auronandace, change=chance | 07:28 |
| auronandace | n8w: i've been on 64bit for years, no problems here | 07:28 |
| Arkhana | Iḿ still 32b | 07:28 |
| n8w | auronandace, ye?good to hear...last time(long time ago) i have tried, i wasnt rly happy about it:) | 07:29 |

| jamesarnett | hey everyone check out my blog chromebookparadise.wordpress.com | 07:32 |
| n8w | auronandace, what i wanna do is this: 2 /root partitions /root32 /root64 /home shared between them...i need to test few things first, if it works out the /root32 will be deleted and merged with the /root64 | 07:32 |
| auronandace | n8w: merged? | 07:33 |
| auronandace | n8w: i would keep both installations entirely separate | 07:33 |
| n8w | auronandace, ye sry, i meant delete 32 one and resize the 64b | 07:33 |
| n8w | auronandace, i hope that grub will pick up that i have got two installation:) | 07:34 |

| ShapeShifter499 | whenever I wanted to install (or reinstall) ubuntu I'd just dd copy it to a flash drive and done, but this method doesn't seem to be working for PPC Ubuntu 12.04, it did before for older versions, any ideas how to get the 12.04 install booting on my powerbook g4? | 08:03 |

| Deepfriedice | Dewi: Ubuntu Software Centre isn't really a package manager in the same way as a Synaptic, Aptitude or Muon are. | 08:20 |
| Deepfriedice | So I'm not really sure that it can; why do you need it to? | 08:20 |
| Dewi | Deepfriedice: to install software... | 08:21 |
| Dewi | Deepfriedice: I wasn't sure if I was missing some configuration, or people still use synaptic... or just apt-get | 08:22 |
| Deepfriedice | Dewi: Okay, but your probably better with some other tool. | 08:22 |
| Deepfriedice | Dwei: I use Synaptic. | 08:23 |

Different errors too, sometimes it says 'BUG plymouthd ...', it just said 'unable to find a medium containing a live file system', what the heck could the error be? | 08:24 |
| esx | Dewi: aptitude ftw | 08:25 |
| Dewi | usr13: yeah, apart from the 3 other stops I needed to make :P | 08:25 |
| Deepfriedice | mercuryrising: have you run the integity check? | 08:25 |
| Dewi | (my local mirror seems to be busted too) | 08:25 |
| mercuryrising | no, how do i do that? | 08:25 |
| WXZ | so far I've tried upgrading hardware drivers from system > administration > hardware drivers; alsamixer doesn't show my sound card, neither do my sound preferences, but lspci does. I found out that the audio chipset I have is alc892, how do I get sound? | 08:25 |
| usr13 | "Synaptic is a graphical front-end to apt" | 08:26 |
| mercuryrising | ah ha, it might be an option, i'll try that! | 08:26 |
| usr13 | WXZ: F6 | 08:26 |
| Dewi | it's pretty strange how chromium is actively mentioned during install but isn't listed in the software centre... | 08:27 |
| mercuryrising | im going to guess it's not this though, as i've tried 4 cds burned from 2 isos on two computers | 08:27 |
| Deepfriedice | esx: aptitude is pretty nice, and I use it whenever X isn't running, but I prefer Synaptic, if only for column sorting. | 08:27 |

| usr13 | Eremes: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu | 08:43 |

| bkhl | Xubuntu = light weight, lubuntu = even more light weight | 08:44 |

| spartanFelix | Hallo! | 08:44 |
| Eremes | ok Will try that | 08:44 |
| Eremes | i will try to update from 9 to 12.04 first | 08:45 |
| Eremes | if its not working ill download lubuntu | 08:45 |

| gordonjcp | Eremes: upgrading from 9.04 to 12.04 will not work | 08:45 |
| gordonjcp | Eremes: do a clean install | 08:45 |

| Eremes | gordonjcp: oh ok | 08:46 |
| Eremes | gordonjcp: will do clean install then | 08:46 |
| gordonjcp | Eremes: what's the spec of the machine you're installing on? | 08:46 |
| bkhl | So get lubuntu or xubuntu 12.04 32-bit, as that page on PAE suggests. | 08:46 |
| Eremes | The default "Desktop" installer requires 384-800 MB of RAM (depending on your selected options). If you have any problems, or if you're comfortable using a | 08:47 |
| Eremes | oh no | 08:47 |
| Eremes | only got 256 RAM | 08:47 |

| Eremes | Tecra M2V, centrino 1.6GHZ 256 RAM 40GB | 08:47 |
| usr13 | Eremes: You need more RAM | 08:47 |
| gordonjcp | Eremes: you will need more RAM to run any modern-ish desktop, even LXDE | 08:47 |
| Eremes | so I now I can't install ubuntu because of ram ? | 08:48 |
| Eremes | now I can't install ubuntu because of the ram ? | 08:48 |
| gordonjcp | Eremes: you can't install *anything* because of RAM | 08:48 |
| Deepfriedice | Eremes: what laptop ARE you running? | 08:48 |
| gordonjcp | Eremes: maybe something non-graphical, *just*, but it will be painful to use with that little RAM | 08:48 |

| farhad | hi | 08:48 |
| Eremes | its running win xp sp3 fine | 08:49 |
| Eremes | but i wanna try linux | 08:49 |
| Eremes | but it seems quite hard to get it done | 08:49 |
| bkhl | lde should be fine. | 08:49 |
| epzil0n | Eremes: maybe crunchbang will work | 08:49 |
| usr13 | Eremes: XP is 12 years old. | 08:49 |
| bkhl | <blasphemy>But I would suggest trying an even more lightweight distribution than Ubuntu</blasphemy> | 08:49 |
| usr13 | Eremes: Why don't you just put some more RAM in it? | 08:50 |
| Deepfriedice | bkhl: yeah, I'm thinking debian-LXDE | 08:50 |
| gordonjcp | LXDE won't run on that | 08:50 |
| gordonjcp | not even close | 08:50 |
| usr13 | Eremes: You might be able to get lubuntu installed on it as is, but you *NEED* more RAM. | 08:50 |
| Eremes | oh corection | 08:51 |
| Eremes | i got 512MB RAM | 08:51 |
| epzil0n | crunchbang is using openbox and should be lighter | 08:51 |
| bkhl | Eremes: should be plenty. | 08:51 |
| gordonjcp | Eremes: oh, 512M? LXDE it | 08:51 |
| Eremes | so Lubuntu will works rite ? | 08:51 |
| bkhl | lxde.org suggests it has has performance requirements similar to Windows 98. | 08:51 |
| usr13 | Eremes: Awesome. Go for it. lubuntu will run on 512 ok. ( | 08:51 |
| gordonjcp | Eremes: you're still going to need more RAM but it will at least work | 08:51 |
| gordonjcp | XFCE needs more RAM than Unity, these days | 08:51 |
| gordonjcp | that's a bit sick | 08:51 |
| Eremes | or maybe http://xubuntu.org/getxubuntu/ | 08:52 |
| Eremes | xubuntu ? | 08:52 |
| Eremes | its 512 MB recommended ? | 08:52 |
| usr13 | Eremes: 1G is recommended. | 08:52 |
| Deepfriedice | usr13: LXDE might work, but how will it fare with PAE? | 08:52 |
| bkhl | Again, lxde.org says it's been tested and shown to work fine on a Pentium II 266 Mhz 192 MB | 08:52 |
| usr13 | Deepfriedice: I dono | 08:52 |
| Deepfriedice | Eremes: Xubntu is too heavy for you, I think. | 08:52 |
| bkhl | Deepfriedice: he does *not* have PAE. | 08:52 |
| gordonjcp | bkhl: "work fine"? | 08:52 |
| bkhl | gordonjcp: they say it was "moderate to fast". | 08:53 |
| gordonjcp | bkhl: LXDE is painful to use on a 1GHz Celeron with 512MB | 08:53 |
| Deepfriedice | bkhl: your right, I meant to write "without PAE?" | 08:53 |
| bkhl | Well, I would have gone with a minimal installation and no "desktop environment" | 08:53 |
| bkhl | Maybe WindowMaker or something. | 08:53 |
| gordonjcp | I'd have stuck OpenWRT on it and used it as a router | 08:54 |
| Eremes | What about Mint ? | 08:54 |
| Eremes | i think its from ubuntu too | 08:54 |

| Arkanos | Aaruni: Maybe over 7 years or so... | 10:05 |
| Aaruni | why so ? | 10:05 |

| Aaruni | usr13: I am using 12.04... i believe that was meant for Arkanos | 10:07 |
| NarcTix | wasnt it March when updates finished? Does that include back patches (security) and not updates. Is there a longer period for security patches? | 10:07 |
| usr13 | Ok, 12.04 is good, LTS | 10:07 |
| Arkanos | Aaruni: It wa 12.04 instead of 10.04 | 10:09 |

| lolbat | epzil0n: apt-get isntall | 10:11 |
| usr13 | epzil0n: I don't know why not? | 10:11 |
| Arkanos | epzil0n: It is called Chromium | 10:11 |
| Arkanos | Not Chrome | 10:11 |
| epzil0n | Arkanos: yeah the unbranded one | 10:12 |
| epzil0n | i want google chrome | 10:12 |
| WXZ | I still have no sound, I've tried messing around with the alsa mixer too | 10:12 |
| Ben64 | chrome exists | 10:12 |
| epzil0n | sudo apt-get -f install only removes the package and tells me there's something wrong with the package | 10:12 |
| streulma | epzil0n usr13: another bug, Chrome, but I have a fix :) | 10:12 |

| Arkanos | epzil0n: It doesn matter. Chroium is exactly the same as Chrome | 10:14 |
| Ben64 | not exactly | 10:14 |
| usr13 | a10killer_: Sure | 10:14 |
| Ben64 | anyway, check the ppa epzil0n www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppa/google_chrome | 10:14 |

| NarcTix | I have a question Ive upgraded two 10.04 to 12.04 why has aptitude been removed during upgrade and not on the other. The upgrades where well staggered at least 2 months? | 10:15 |
| usr13 | "Google Chrome is the Chromium open source project built, packaged, and distributed by Google" | 10:15 |
| epzil0n | streulma: ah, that will probably work :) | 10:15 |
| a10killer_ | ok, well I have a toshiba external hardrive, 1.5 TB, I have succesfully partitioned a 30GB and 4GB volume for kubuntu through GPARTED, but kubuntu's instalation process and file system does not dtect it | 10:16 |
| lkthomas | interesting, I am trying to add a script into init.d, but when I execute it, it's all code echo out | 10:16 |
| NarcTix | iirc you need to use a ppa for chromium? | 10:16 |
| usr13 | !aptitude | NarcTix | 10:16 |
| ubottu | NarcTix: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. You may encounter problems on multiarch installs (11.10 and 12.04) as aptitude cannot handle the same package with different architectures being installed at the same time. See http://pad.lv/831768 for more information. | 10:16 |
| a10killer_ | and when it does i get this error Error mounting: mount: /dev is not a valid block device kubuntu | 10:16 |

| a10killer_ | give me a sec | 10:20 |

| NarcTix | a10killer is the drive mounted? what does fdisk -l show? | 10:21 |
| Jordan_U | icedwater: Correct. | 10:21 |

| NarcTix | a10killer you might need to sudo fdisk -l if your using a server depends how they script there kickstart | 10:23 |

| a10killer_ | It was orignally NTFS, I was instructed to format and partition it to EXT4 | 10:34 |
| a10killer_ | I have all the original files saved ofcourse and can restore it if need be | 10:34 |

| a10killer_ | i tried, unetbootin does not recognize the hardrive | 10:35 |

| lkthomas | how to know what is going on ? | 10:36 |
| usr13 | a10killer_: I would say there is something wrong with the drive. You might try a reboot. | 10:36 |
| NarcTix | isnt unetbootin only for usb although it lets you use hds? | 10:36 |
| xatr0z | lkthomas: is the file executable ? | 10:36 |
| Jordan_U | lkthomas: How are you trying to execute the script? | 10:36 |
| a10killer_ | unetbootin has an option for HD's | 10:36 |

| NarcTix | a10killer_, you could use dd | 10:38 |
| a10killer_ | dd? | 10:38 |
| lkthomas | usr13: same thing, it prints | 10:38 |
| xatr0z | lkthomas: what does head -n 1 scst give ? | 10:38 |
| usr13 | lkthomas: It prints ______________________? | 10:38 |
| lkthomas | #!/bin/sh | 10:38 |
| NarcTix | a10killer_, it will basically mirror the disk you set as source to the target | 10:39 |
| Jordan_U | lkthomas: It prints each command executed to stderr, with a '+' at the beginning? | 10:39 |
| a10killer_ | ok | 10:39 |

| sharpshooter | hai guys I have an application in my home folder every time i want to open the app I need to got to the path and run from them is there any way to call the app from global in terminal like an installed app ?? | 10:40 |
| NarcTix | a10killer_, its dangerous if you dont know your systems file system structure though | 10:40 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: Put it somewhere in your path. | 10:40 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: You can put it in ~/bin | 10:41 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: Make sure ~/bin is in your path. | 10:41 |
| Jordan_U | lkthomas: I don't think you know what "bash -x" and "set -x" do. What they do is tell bash to print every command executed to stderr with '+' characters at the beginning, which with simple scripts is a lot like printing the script. | 10:41 |
| a10killer_ | well, I have a years worth of research on this computer, so danger is bad! :D | 10:41 |
| sharpshooter | usr13, yes I copied the files in app folder to /home/username/bin | 10:41 |

| varunendra | sharpshooter, sorry, it should be /home/<user id>/bin | 10:58 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: Should already be in your path. | 10:58 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: grep PATH .profile #Tell us what that says. | 10:58 |
| CatKiller | Hi there! I've got something worrying here on Ubuntu 8.0.4 Server LTS: I have a RAID 5 built on 3 enterprise class disks (checked with smartctl, appear all good, no reallocated sectors) and Ubuntu runs a monthly check of the array. After the check, the "mismatch_cnt" value of the RAID goes through the roof, ammounting to 193GB worth of mismatched blocks. | 10:58 |
| CatKiller | I've searched around and it doesn't seem to be normal | 10:58 |
| CatKiller | Could this be a bug with Ubuntu 8.0.4? | 10:59 |
| sharpshooter | usr13, # set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" | 11:00 |
| NarcTix | icedwater ah didnt know that, if its windows not booting . Something Ive come across alot doing dual boots with windows is that it doesent like resizing if the disk has any errors or bad sectors on it. The ones that did all BS | 11:00 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: ok it's there. So what command are you using to run AptanaStudio3 ? | 11:00 |
| sharpshooter | usr13, yes AptanaStudio3 | 11:01 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: AptanaStudio3.sh | 11:02 |
| shomon | hi I have an hp pavilion dv1000, what ubuntu can I install on it so that I can run mixx! | 11:02 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: Oh wait. The executable bit. | 11:02 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: chmod +x ~/bin/AptanaStudio3.sh | 11:03 |
| shomon | or is there a good place to ask about linux sound apps? | 11:03 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: That should fix it. | 11:03 |
| sharpshooter | usr13, trying ! | 11:03 |
| varunendra | sharpshooter, I don't see the 'bin' folder in YOUR home (~/bin/) in your PATH. I think that's the problem | 11:04 |
| === ganger is now known as tesaa | ||
| === tesaa is now known as ganger | ||
| usr13 | sharpshooter: But it doesn't look to me like everything is where it should be because I'm seeing symlink aptana -> Aptana_Studio_3/AptanaStudio3.sh And I do not see where the directory Aptana_Studio_3/ is. | 11:04 |
| sharpshooter | usr13, yeah! its working !! | 11:04 |
| NarcTix | to run shell scripts without setting them executable you can use the env to run them i.e /bin/sh /bin/bash/script.sh | 11:04 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: Oh ok | 11:04 |
| === ganger is now known as tes | ||
| sharpshooter | usr13, that directory is in /home/username folder | 11:05 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: Sorry I didn't see that at first. | 11:05 |
| === tes is now known as ganger | ||
| usr13 | sharpshooter: Well, you probably should have unzipped the file in ~/bin/ in the first place, but... if it works, it works. | 11:06 |
| sharpshooter | usr13, is it possible to add a symlink to bin of another dir ? | 11:06 |
| sharpshooter | usr13, varunendra : thanks !! :) | 11:07 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: Sure. We do that all the time. Just put the symlink in ~/bin/ and put the files somewhere else. | 11:07 |
| usr13 | /usr/lib/ or ...... | 11:07 |
| NarcTix | sharpshooter yes it is but not advisable imho | 11:07 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: And that way, you can name it whatever you want. | 11:08 |
| shomon | can I download ubuntu 9.10 or equivalent for a very old laptop?# | 11:08 |
| cfhowlett | shomon, lubuntu or xubuntu are best for old equipment | 11:08 |
| cfhowlett | shomon, you can probably run the current version ... no need to run and end of life version | 11:09 |
| gvo | 9.10 won't be receiving any security updates. | 11:09 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: you could put the symlink in /usr/local/bin | 11:09 |
| sharpshooter | usr13, you can see in 4 line of http://paste.ubuntu.com/5641090/ that I created a aptana -> Aptana_Studio_3/AptanaStudio3.sh but its not working what I should do inn order to work that ? | 11:09 |
| shomon | what is the difference between l and x? | 11:09 |
| === ganger is now known as caaaaa | ||
| === caaaaa is now known as ganger | ||
| usr13 | sharpshooter: Oh yea, because the path is different now. | 11:09 |
| shomon | cfhowlett: it;s incredibly slow, and mixx doesnt work | 11:09 |
| usr13 | sharpshooter: You would have to change it to complete path. | 11:09 |
| shomon | it an't figure out the mp3 controller | 11:09 |
| cfhowlett | shomon, lxde and xfce4 are window enviroments ... look and feel. pretty similar, both are lightweight | 11:10 |
| gvo | shomon: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuFlavors | 11:10 |
| shomon | ah there is a external mp3 controller called a mixtracker pro which it won't connect to | 11:10 |
| shomon | thanks | 11:10 |

| jpds | cfhowlett: Server and desktop get the same time of support. | 11:20 |
| cfhowlett | jpds, not on LTS ... | 11:20 |
| jpds | cfhowlett: It does. | 11:21 |
| usr13 | WXZ: grep Prompt /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades | 11:21 |

| jpds | cfhowlett: Last time? | 11:21 |
| WXZ | usr13: Prompt=lts | 11:21 |
| cfhowlett | jpds, next version of desktop LTS is slated for 36 months of support ... not 60 months | 11:22 |
| usr13 | WXZ: Good. | 11:22 |
| WXZ | why is that good? | 11:22 |
| jpds | cfhowlett: Citation please. | 11:22 |
| streulma | back | 11:22 |
| cfhowlett | !lts | 11:22 |
| ubottu | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; with the exception of 12.04 (Precise Pangolin), which will be supported for 5 years on the desktop. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04) | 11:22 |
| usr13 | WXZ: Because you can upgrade to 12.04 (skipping the ones in between). | 11:22 |
| jpds | cfhowlett: Says nothing about the next LTS. | 11:23 |
| WXZ | usr13: I'd rather create another partition and move over, auto-upgrades suck for me | 11:23 |
| usr13 | WXZ: If you want to use cli, you can do: sudo do-release-upgrade | 11:23 |
| cfhowlett | jpds ... OK. We'll check 14.04 and both be pleasantly surprised ... | 11:23 |
| usr13 | WXZ: Why do auto upgrades suck for you? | 11:23 |
| NarcTix | with LTS can you actually call someone? | 11:23 |
| usr13 | WXZ: Was your 10.04 fully updated? | 11:24 |

| cfhowlett | NarcTix, call? meaning ... what? | 11:24 |

| Excryption | Ubuntu has the ability to partition a drive right? | 11:49 |
| Eagleman | WIll any data be lost when using cfdisk to resize ( shrink and extend ) a partition? | 11:49 |
| Ben64 | you should probably not have a DE if you want a kiosk | 11:49 |
| cfhowlett | Excryption, yes it does | 11:49 |
| ginpb | cfhowlett: i'm looking for something more, like block wallpaper hide system settings | 11:49 |
| Excryption | Awesome | 11:49 |
| hackerman | do you think that it is better windows or mac? | 11:49 |
| === versi is now known as kalkov | ||
| ginpb | cfhowlett: all the tutorial i've found until now are for making an internet kiosk | 11:49 |
| cfhowlett | ginpb, how about just using the guest account? | 11:50 |
| tabsterleir | Hey guys, i've just finished setting up my UbuntuGNOME just the way I like it, can you recommend a good backup utility that supports SMB shares? | 11:50 |
| cfhowlett | ginpb, it's sandboxed and gets flushed on each login/logout. no access to settings ... | 11:50 |
| ginpb | cfhowlett: for now looks like the solution i'm gonna use, but i need user login | 11:50 |
| NarcTix | rsync | 11:51 |
| dawne_p | tabsterleir, can't you just mount them up and backup like they were local? | 11:51 |
| tabsterleir | dawne_p: To be honest I wouldn't know how 0.o But i'll look it up :) | 11:51 |
| cfhowlett | ginpb, why? you can go into guest without a user login | 11:51 |
| ginpb | cfhowlett: because i want to let different user to have a home folder to save data | 11:52 |
| zubi | Hey NarcTix did you got some idea ? | 11:52 |
| Myrtti | tabsterleir: dejadup seems to work fine for that | 11:52 |
| cfhowlett | ginpb, understood. doable. but I don't know the details ... | 11:52 |
| Eagleman | What would be the best option to shrink my partition from 65GB to 15GB without loosing any data? | 11:52 |
| dawne_p | tabsterleir, https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Mounting_samba_shares_from_a_unix_client I don't know what your situation is exactly, but that should get you going. edit /etc/fstab and then when you want to see if the line is right, do a mount -a | 11:53 |
| bono | Eagleman: gparted | 11:53 |
| dawne_p | Is there a log file that would tell me whether or not this laptop lost it's wireless connection at all last night? | 11:53 |
| Eagleman | bono: can it also extend a partition? | 11:53 |
| bono | Eagleman: yes, it can | 11:53 |
| ginpb | cfhowlett: apparently only kde have integrated kiosk features but for kde4 there is not a lot of doc and kde/kubuntu irc channel don't know how to do it | 11:54 |
| ginpb | so i was looking for solutions using unity | 11:54 |
| Myrtti | Eagleman: I know this sounds obvious, but you *need* to take backups first. Please do. | 11:54 |
| cfhowlett | ginpb, http://www.instructables.com/id/Setting-Up-Ubuntu-as-a-Kiosk-Web-Appliance/?ALLSTEPS | 11:54 |
| ginpb | cfhowlett: again for a web kiosk | 11:54 |
| Eagleman | Myrtti: i am on esxi, i will first make a copy of the vmdk file and test on that, if it worked, i will make another backup copy and do it aigan | 11:55 |
| ginpb | i still want they can use libreoffice, gimp, etc.. | 11:55 |
| dawne_p | cfhowlett, neat. I've been thinking of doing this for the contractors at the lmber yard where I work. | 11:55 |
| cfhowlett | ginpb, can they save to a usb??? | 11:55 |
| Ben64 | ginpb: so whats wrong with guest acct? | 11:55 |
| ginpb | cfhowlett: yes it's not forbidden, but i don't want to force anyone to carry a pendrive | 11:56 |
| ginpb | Ben64: no user login | 11:56 |
| tabsterleir | Sorry all, got distracted. Thanks for the advice :) | 11:56 |
| Ben64 | ginpb: what? | 11:57 |
| ginpb | capo8208 | 11:57 |
| ginpb | Ben64: that is wrong with the guest account, i want different user accounts | 11:58 |
| Ben64 | ginpb: then don't give them sudo access | 11:58 |
| gquere_ | Has someone managed to stream VLC between computers using UDP and not RTP ? | 11:59 |
| ginpb | Ben64: yes, but they still can add and remove shortcuts and click around | 12:00 |
| gquere_ | UDP gives me a "send error: Connection refused" whereas RTP works fine | 12:00 |
| Ben64 | ginpb: i don't think what you want exists | 12:01 |
| ginpb | Ben64: exists, but apparently is not used that much, kde4 should offer an integrated support for kios mode, but apparently the doc haven't been updated | 12:02 |
| ginpb | and kde channel on irc is not really hellpful | 12:02 |

| DJones | anew: Fair enough | 13:29 |
| Peanut | anew: do you have ntpd installed even? Also, nowadays you might try 'service ntpd stop' and then 'service ntpd start'. | 13:29 |

| philinux | anew: iirc the syntax is like this. e.g http://itblog.gr/889/start-or-stop-linux-service/ | 13:30 |
| anew | ntpd: unrecognized service | 13:30 |
| mark_ma | did you install ntpd | 13:31 |
| llutz | anew: the servicename is "ntp" not ntpd | 13:31 |
| philinux | mark_ma: ntpd is part of ntp | 13:31 |
| mark_ma | philinux :yes ,thanks,philinux | 13:32 |
| philinux | anew: http://askubuntu.com/questions/29663/how-do-i-disable-ntpd | 13:33 |
| anew | philinux if i disable it... how will ubuntu know the time | 13:33 |
| betrayd | from the pc clock | 13:33 |
| philinux | anew: that was just an example. no need to follow commands you dont want | 13:34 |
| anew | ok last question: what does this date -s "`date`" do | 13:34 |
| philinux | anew: i did not have ntp installed but under time and date it says sync time via internet. | 13:34 |
| llutz | anew: man date (sets time to actual time), sounds real useful... | 13:35 |
| anew | llutz sarcasm ? | 13:35 |
| betrayd | no, lists all formats too | 13:35 |
| Excryption | So if I decide to install Ubuntu on my main laptop, which uses a Radeon HD 7730m, does Ubuntu support it? | 13:35 |
| anew | http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1282232/mysql-high-cpu-usage llutz just trying to understand the point of the second answer here | 13:36 |
| mark_ma | Excryption:why do not use vm | 13:36 |
| Excryption | I'd rather do a full installing, not a big fan of vm | 13:37 |
| mark_ma | but ,it is the same | 13:37 |
| Excryption | Not for me, I prefer to have it as fully installed, not just a vm on top of my base OS | 13:38 |
| adamk | Excryption: It that a laptop with hybrid graphics? | 13:38 |
| Excryption | Well yeah, HD4000 and AMD Radeon HD 7730M. Wondering if I'll get support for the 7730M | 13:39 |
| adamk | Excryption: Getting the AMD GPU to work on a hybrid laptop is hit or miss. I've seen some reports of it working, and some reports of it not. | 13:39 |
| Excryption | Ahh I see. So I'll probably have to disable the main GPU and use iGPU | 13:40 |
| philinux | Excryption: http://askubuntu.com/questions/192381/how-to-turn-off-ati-radeon-hd-7730m-on-dell-inspiron-7520 | 13:41 |
| adamk | Excryption: You won't know till you try. Only the proprietary driver will support the AMD GPU, however, *if* you can even get it working then. | 13:41 |
| philinux | Excryption: the above link should help | 13:41 |
| Excryption | Thank you very much | 13:42 |
| Excryption | Well I'm still pondering, currently I've installed 13.04 on my spare laptop but it seems a little laggy so I'd rather install it on my main. | 13:42 |

| REVO-F | becnfecn, I did but how do I use it? | 13:46 |
| becnfecn | REVO-F: mount -t ntfs /dev/windowspartition /wheretomountit ? | 13:46 |
| llutz | anew: what problems do you have with ntpd? | 13:46 |
| anew | nothing, it's a problem with mysql cpu. i just found that this could possibly be a fix for it | 13:47 |
| becnfecn | REVO-F: or, ntfs-3g /dev/windows-part /dev/wheretomount | 13:47 |
| becnfecn | REVO-F: You could check out man ntfs-3g too I bet | 13:47 |
| llutz | anew: the thing you referred is a kernel-bug (inserting leap seconds) | 13:47 |
| Excryption | Is TRIM enabled by default on 13.04? | 13:47 |
| becnfecn | REVO-F: looks lke the -t should be ntfs-3g, not just ntfs | 13:48 |
| REVO-F | becnfecn, I've downloaded ntfs-3g | 13:48 |
| becnfecn | REVO-F: We've covered that my friend. What partition contains your ntfs formatted partition ? | 13:49 |

| mojtaba | Hi, I have installed ubuntu 12.10 and also KDE desktop for test, now when I log in to my computer it shows KDE logo, how can I get rid of it and come back to unity logo when log in to the system? | 13:50 |
| anew | is this normal? my httpd.conf is empty | 13:51 |
| mojtaba | I have KDE, Unity, Cinnamon, Cairo, Gnome. | 13:51 |
| somsip | anew: its apache2.conf now | 13:51 |
| mojtaba | But I would like to remove KDE from the list | 13:51 |
| overedge | what is the difference between cinnamon and xfce ? | 13:52 |
| anew | oh ok thx | 13:52 |
| philinux | mojtaba: do you want to uninstall kde | 13:52 |
| mojtaba | philinux: Yes | 13:53 |
| philinux | mojtaba: to remove kubuntu http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/pureubuntu | 13:53 |
| mojtaba | Philinux: I remember for the first time I installed KDE, it asked me a question to choose what do I like to choose for the log in time. And I think I chose KDE at that time. ( I am newbie) | 13:54 |
| mojtaba | philinux: Also I have ub | 13:54 |
| mojtaba | updated my ubuntu to 13.04 | 13:54 |
| mojtaba | Does the link still work? | 13:55 |
| philinux | mojtaba: not sure at all | 13:55 |
| philinux | mojtaba: some packages may have changed with 1.04 | 13:55 |
| philinux | 13.04 | 13:55 |
| becnfecn | REVO-F: It sounds to me as if you have a windows drive/partition that contains files you wish to access from within ubutntu | 13:56 |
| mojtaba | philinux: By the way, I just want to get rid of KDE, not others. | 13:56 |
| REVO-F | becnfecn, true :) | 13:56 |
| philinux | mojtaba: you can try the tutorial at your own risk | 13:56 |
| becnfecn | REVO-F: To that end, if that is in fact that it is you're wanting to do, use ntfs-3g to mount the appropriate partition and then do what you wish. | 13:56 |
| becnfecn | REVO-F: Do you know what your windows partition is? | 13:56 |
| REVO-F | becnfecn, yes it's called Windows local | 13:57 |
| mojtaba | Is there anybody who is sure about this issue? | 13:57 |
| philinux | mojtaba: I should read too. http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntucat/tag/pure-ubuntu/ | 13:58 |
| philinux | mojtaba: thats for 13..04 | 13:58 |
| becnfecn | REVO-F: You've lost me ;( | 13:58 |
| REVO-F | becnfecn, I am using ubuntu I want to mount windows using a terminal and view it's files | 13:59 |
| mojtaba | philinux: another thing is that, although I have updated to 13.04, but I am using kernel 2.5, because my laptop (Dell Studio 1555) had problem with kernel 3.8. | 13:59 |
| philinux | mojtaba: that should not matter at all. | 13:59 |
| mojtaba | philinux: I will go through the process, thanks a lot. | 14:00 |
| philinux | mojtaba: backup any important stuff first | 14:00 |
| philinux | mojtaba: data wise | 14:00 |
| mojtaba | philinux: Would you please let me know what commands should I enter to the command prompt to make a backup? | 14:01 |
| becnfecn | REVO-F: well before we can do that we need to identify what partition holds your windows files ;) | 14:01 |
| philinux | mojtaba: I have a data partitoin. I drag and drop to that or a usb stick | 14:02 |
| becnfecn | REVO-F: I don't suppose you know what partition your / is mounted on? | 14:02 |
| REVO-F | becnfecn, Windows is called windows local my windows files are in windows local | 14:03 |
| mojtaba | philinux: What about the other parts of the system? | 14:03 |
| philinux | mojtaba: only need to backup any data | 14:03 |
| mojtaba | philinux: Thanks. | 14:04 |

| Adlai | What is the currently recommended GUI wrapper for APT-GET? | 14:29 |
| jair | I am wondering if I should remove the proprietary nvidia driver? I installed the one from the nvidia website | 14:30 |
| jair | or I am thinking might be because of the kernel I am using? | 14:30 |
| jair | I am using the low latency instead of the generic | 14:30 |
| johnjohn101 | what is low latency kernel? | 14:30 |
| newcholby | varunendra, heheh yea | 14:30 |
| Gutts | I need some help | 14:31 |
| newcholby | but on the flip side windows is so bad i'm sure i'll be happy | 14:31 |
| * newcholby steps aside for Gutts | 14:31 | |
| jair | johnjohn101: it is an alternative kernel in the list of kernels available for ubuntu | 14:31 |
| Gutts | with my UEFI k55n asus laptop that refuses to boot anything other than windows 8 preinstall | 14:31 |
| jair | does everybody normally runs the generic version? | 14:31 |
| varunendra | newcholby, if you are comparing with win 8, then most probably yeah | 14:31 |
| Demagog | newcholby: new ubuntu is much better. | 14:31 |
| varunendra | otherwise it is a matter of habits and taste | 14:32 |
| Gutts | I turned off secureboot/fastboot and yet it won't even boot up the damn linux os | 14:32 |
| philinux | Adlai: either software center or synaptic | 14:32 |
| newcholby | i was actually going to install crunchbang because somebody recommended it | 14:33 |
| Demagog | jair: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 14:33 |
| newcholby | but it detected two windows vista and wanted to install grub | 14:33 |
| newcholby | so i ran like hell | 14:33 |
| tgm4883 | Gutts, when it boots, hit the key to get to the boot menu. See if their is a "legacy" mode for either your USB or CDROM (depending on which you are installing from) | 14:33 |
| newcholby | (i have one windows 8) | 14:33 |
| Demagog | newcholby: it's just normal. | 14:33 |
| Gutts | I'm installing from USB and there is no legacy mod | 14:33 |
| Gutts | mode * | 14:34 |
| Gutts | it comes up with the menu to launch ubuntu live but then it goes blank | 14:34 |
| johnjohn101 | wow, there is a real time kernel for ubuntu? is this officially supported? | 14:34 |
| Demagog | You could reset your mbr. | 14:34 |
| Gutts | I used unetbootin to prepare the usb | 14:34 |
| varunendra | newcholby, I'm sure it is the separate /boot partition that shows up as 2nd vista :) | 14:34 |
| Gutts | and I put ubuntu 12.10 x64amd on it | 14:34 |
| tgm4883 | Gutts, sorry IDK then. That is exactly what happened to me though | 14:34 |

| reda | hi | 14:37 |
| varunendra | newcholby, GRUB doesn't care more than handling the boot process to the windows boot manager correctly. So the OS prober only looks for the boot files, not what they are going to boot - w7,8 or vista | 14:38 |
| Gutts | can anyone help me to resolve this ? | 14:38 |
| newcholby | varunendra, i just had a bad experience with grub | 14:39 |

| xro | i use xchat... but i would like to try empathy ... | 14:49 |
| lez | philinux, Seeya :-) | 14:49 |
| philinux | lez: I found my win 7 would only shrink to around half - something to do with where it stores some stuff and the end of the partition | 14:50 |
| Demagog | xro: or try pidgin :) | 14:50 |
| * betrayd throws up | 14:50 | |
| WXZ | adamk: is unity one of those? | 14:50 |
| lez | philinux, OK going to do now. | 14:50 |
| philinux | lez: good luck | 14:51 |
| WXZ | Pici: zaphod mode is when you have seperate desktop environments on each monitor | 14:51 |
| WXZ | errr, well, seperate desktops | 14:51 |
| xro | I used pidgin with my old ubuntu... i moved to empathy which is great... But not for IRC as i see | 14:51 |
| Pici | WXZ: heh, clever name for it ;) | 14:51 |
| WXZ | yeah, heads and things | 14:51 |
| philinux | beelbebrox | 14:52 |
| adamk | WXZ: Don't know.. gnome-shell definitely doesn't support separate screens, or didn't last time I checked. | 14:52 |
| WXZ | adamk: gnome-shell2 did | 14:53 |
| adamk | And Zaphod mode isn't necessarily having separate desktop environments, just having separate screens. | 14:53 |
| WXZ | adamk: right now I'm staring at 1 functional screen and one which is completely white | 14:53 |
| WXZ | yeah, I said seperate desktops after | 14:53 |
| adamk | Sorry, missed the correction. | 14:54 |
| WXZ | I've actually been looking for ways to transfer windows across heads in zaphod mode, can't do it | 14:54 |
| varunendra | xro, do you have xchat-indicator installed with xchat? | 14:54 |
| WXZ | kind of like a xinerama-zaphod combo | 14:54 |
| xro | varunendra, nop, what is it? | 14:55 |
| lucky1 | hey folks!!!!!! | 14:56 |
| lucky1 | I'm having a knowledge issue.. what's the difference between a VPN client and server???? | 14:56 |
| varunendra | xro, do it now, maybe you'll get the integrity you want 'sudo apt-get install xchat-indicator' | 14:56 |
| xuanfeng | 淡淡的忧伤 | 14:56 |
| lucky1 | I find alot of information on how to do each but nothing on what the difference between the two are??? | 14:57 |
| lucky1 | between VPN client and server | 14:57 |
| varunendra | xro, it gives you a live indicator icon in the drop-down menu of the regular chat/message indicator applet. | 14:57 |
| xro | varunendra, what is the objective of this package... don't like to install without knowing... | 14:57 |
| varunendra | xro, ^^ | 14:58 |
| Deepfriedice | lucky1: ...one is a client for VPN connections, the other a sever for them? | 14:58 |
| lucky1 | what's the difference between the service? | 14:58 |
| xro | yep... so, i still have to use x-chat... my objective was to remove xchat and use empathy for all my online accounts... | 14:59 |
| lucky1 | if you run a service, is that the same thing as having a VPN client? | 14:59 |
| Deepfriedice | lucky1: What exactly are you trying to do? | 14:59 |
| Demagog | I have one question. Is it any way to use second monitor in hdmi just like in windows? | 14:59 |
| xro | So, nobody here use empathy as IRC client? | 15:00 |
| betrayd | xro nobody having the same problem as you is more like it | 15:00 |
| akashj87 | xro, there may be some ...sleeping ;) | 15:00 |
| hacktus0 | I have problem : | 15:00 |
| hacktus0 | when i want shutdown my ubuntu 13.04 then it write : kernel [failled]. And I must shutdown manualy (I push button for shutdown during 5 sec) | 15:00 |
| hacktus0 | can you help me ? please | 15:01 |
| Deepfriedice | hackeron: can we see the log? | 15:01 |
| cntrational | I'm having an issue where Skype gets stuck on the initial loading screen. I'm on a just-installed raring system. What do I do? | 15:02 |
| varunendra | hacktus0, did you check the integrity of the downloaded ISO? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM | 15:02 |
| lucky1 | I'm trying to find the best VPN solution for an OpenVPN connection.. someone suggested to me that all I have to do is run VPN from a server off the router | 15:02 |
| lucky1 | to secure my network traffic basically | 15:02 |
| betrayd | 'all you have to do' | 15:03 |
| lucky1 | I use openVPN client now but I'm seeing if running a VPN server can secure my network traffic better | 15:03 |
| Deepfriedice | lucky1: what's wrong with WPA2? | 15:03 |
| xro | betrayd, we are many with this problem... and we all use x-chat because of that | 15:03 |
| lucky1 | Right now, I don't know routers very well so I'm doing the VPN thing for now | 15:03 |
| hacktus0 | varunendra : but is for en cryptage | 15:03 |
| xuanfeng | quit | 15:04 |
| lucky1 | and the router I have here belongs to the cable company and I don't like those but I have to use it.. | 15:04 |
| Deepfriedice | Also, if you were going to use VPN (which is the wrong thing) you would need to run a client on your computer and a VPN sever on the router | 15:04 |
| philinux | xro: have checked out all in guide https://live.gnome.org/Empathy/FAQ#How_can_I_connect_to_IRC_in_Empathy_.3F | 15:04 |
| Sarger001 | Is the iso for 4.10 floating around? | 15:04 |
| betrayd | xro maybe you should ask the empathy folks then or whoever did that kludge for IRC | 15:05 |
| varunendra | hacktus0, couldn't get you.. what did you mean? | 15:05 |
| Sarger001 | dw found it | 15:05 |
| lucky1 | Deepfriedice: why is getting a VPN wrong? | 15:05 |
| Deepfriedice | lucky1: if you don't trust your router, use it only as a modem and have your own hardware as a router. | 15:05 |
| xro | i'll debug it tommorow | 15:05 |
| xro | ++ all | 15:05 |

| lucky1 | hmm.. networking!! So U get your own router to send out the dual (VPN + WAP2) encryption to the cable router | 15:06 |
| Whiskey`Wonka | am i reading that right? the bug has been patched in the mainline kernel but not in ubuntu as yet? | 15:06 |
| Deepfriedice | lucky1: VPN is designed to harden traffic over many hops against snooping of MITM attacks. | 15:06 |
| lucky1 | I know people who work for Verizon and I know those routers are bad news!!!!!!!! | 15:06 |
| lucky1 | yes, I use OpenVPN | 15:06 |
| Deepfriedice | lucky1: not quite. You get your own router and disable Wireless on thier one, then connect the two by cable and broadcast a WPA2 network from your router. | 15:07 |
| yggdrasil | is the ubuntu iso that is 798 meant to be on a cd or a dvd ? | 15:08 |

| Deepfriedice | cntrational: I can't be much of a help, but does it produce any interesting output if you run it from a terminal? | 15:12 |
| Halite | anyway, I got a message today about upgrading to 'Raring Racingtail'. When I pressed 'Yes, upgrade now' the first few times (w/ wireless), a system error occurs. When I plugged in the wired connection and do it again, nothing happens. Why is this? | 15:13 |
| Deepfriedice | Halite: I presume the program asking you about upgrading was update-manager? | 15:14 |
| pythonirc1011 | I am redirecting both 1 and 2 but I still see "X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication. " Any ideas how to suppress this warning? | 15:14 |
| cntrational | Deepfriedice: actually, just fixed it -- had to remove the .Skype folder in home | 15:15 |
| Halite | I'm not sure. It wasn't under Upgrade Manager. | 15:15 |
| Halite | It had a ? icon and had the title 'Ubuntu 13.04 Upgrade Available'. | 15:15 |

| JunCTionS | hello guys, I'm currently faced with an external USB drive making a clicking noise and not appearing in the graphic "Disk Utility" program. I can hear it clicking sporadically even though it's not mounted. So... how do I power it down safely (I can see it in lsusb -v) and do you have any recomendations on how to attempt to recover the data in it? | 15:45 |
| veryhappy | Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS 3.2.0-41-generic hey guys, i want to try this solution for my hdmi: http://askubuntu.com/questions/4662/where-is-the-x-org-config-file-how-do-i-configure-x-there due to the missing setting overscan, which was removed after a certain time, but i have no xorg.conf, how can i anyway get this to run? thank you | 15:45 |
| newcholby | JunCTionS, i'm really sorry but that sounds like a bad drive. google "drivesavers" | 15:45 |

| betrayd | veryhappy: for a starting point | 15:47 |
| JunCTionS | thanks newcholby but I'm not in the US and I have the data in another computer in a city nearby. So just looking for a home solution | 15:47 |

| JunCTionS | we could start with powering it down to test it with another computer/connection. Anyone know how to power down a specific USB port? | 15:48 |

| Halite | Why is LibreOffice Base (and Basic) inaccessible? | 15:48 |
| BluesKaj | JunCTionS, does it show in the file manager | 15:48 |
| JunCTionS | BluesKaj, no, it doesn't. but it shows in the "lsusb -v" | 15:48 |
| newcholby | JunCTionS, it takes really special training to take the platters out and put them in a new drive. that's what is needed i think, because the click is a hardware problem i've run into | 15:49 |

| utfans05 | Halite, libraoffice is available on a fresh install of Ubuntu | 15:51 |
| veryhappy | betrayd: is is really supposed to be "X -configure iirc"? cause he said he didn't find this option | 15:51 |
| JunCTionS | thanks veryhappy, I tried something similar but maybe I'm missing something because I get: a "No such file or directory problem" | 15:51 |
| varunendra | hacktus0, that is the command you should run in a terminal when you restart | 15:51 |
| Halite | utfans05, I have LibreOffice. It's just that Database and Basic are disabled and invisible respectively. | 15:51 |
| varunendra | post here the link it gives you | 15:51 |
| betrayd | no iirc means if i remember correctly veryhappy | 15:51 |
| hacktus0 | bye | 15:52 |

| utfans05 | Halite, give me a few minutes, im updating my resume right now. soon as I'm done ill take a look at it | 15:52 |
| JunCTionS | newcholby, yes, it's quite likely that it's a mechanical problem, I just want to try to see if it is a power failure problem (not enough juice from the USB port to get the thing properly moving). also, this guy found that in his case the casing was the problem: https://www.google.es/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&ved=0CDEQtwIwAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Da2PB9gZ1br4&ei=Mh6JUcrEDeeR7AbsiYDICw | 15:52 |

| jair | philinux: awesome | 15:53 |

| jair | philinux: something like this is what I was looking for | 15:53 |
| philinux | jair: plenty to read then | 15:53 |

| veryhappy | Halite: just tell us your problem, don't ask to ask, just ask! | 15:54 |

| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 16:12 |
| sharpshooter | Bombo, edit this file sudo gedit /etc/default/grub and search for this two lines GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true replace it to GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=10 GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=false and run sudo update-grub | 16:12 |
| Bombo | sharpshooter: ok thx | 16:13 |
| XbladeCoder | why root login is disabled in ubuntu ? | 16:13 |
| dakira | XbladeCoder: because it is insecure and you don't need it | 16:13 |
| OerHeks | XbladeCoder, because ubuntu is build that way. | 16:14 |
| OerHeks | !rootirc | 16:14 |
| ubottu | It's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet. | 16:14 |
| dakira | XbladeCoder: you can become root with "sudo -i" if you need to | 16:14 |

| Bombo | next problem: where does unity or gnome or x or whatever that is save the screen resolution? there is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf ( i need to reset it ) | 16:14 |
| sharpshooter | Bombo, hold the shift key during boot | 16:14 |
| k1l | Bombo: there is no xorg.conf since ages | 16:15 |
| k1l | Bombo: just use the driver | 16:15 |
| Bombo | sharpshooter: hmmkay ;) | 16:16 |
| dakira | Bombo: holding shift is not the answer you are looking for. | 16:17 |
| dakira | Bombo: just go to the system settings and set your desired resolution. if you use the nvidia driver, use the nvidia settings tool. | 16:17 |
| Bombo | dakira: ok but what if it wont start up at first... unity i mean | 16:19 |
| Bombo | because of some bad settings for the grafics card or resolution that is not supported by the 'new' monitor | 16:19 |
| anew | /etc/init.d/mysql restart this is not working to restart mysql ? | 16:20 |
| Bombo | problem is: setup the resolution on a different monitor, now there is a monitor connected that doesn't support the res | 16:21 |
| anew | got it | 16:21 |

| junctions | hey there, veryhappy and the other person who replied to my recent USB HDD question, thanks, after powering it down safely and connecting it to another computer the clicking sound was gone and it mounted automatically, probable culprit: bad USB extension. In any case I'm doing an rsync full backup onto a server immediately. | 16:21 |

| anew | http://mtop.sourceforge.net/ | 16:24 |
| Bombo | dakira: good question ;) | 16:24 |
| llutz | anew: netpbm isn't | 16:24 |

| Sheco | wildc4rd, yes i have. | 16:25 |
| ezra-s | Sheco you can't open several windows at once, what exactly do you mean? | 16:26 |
| Sheco | ezra-s: I have multiple terminals, switch to the browser, click on the terminal but only the last active terminal pops up. | 16:26 |
| ezra-s | Sheco, I know what you mean, for that I use Super + S to show all desktops and go where the one I need is | 16:28 |
| LuckySMack | i have a lenovo y580 laptop. and when running windows it can run for about 4 - 5 hours before the battery dies. when running ubuntu 13 it only lasts about 2. im thinking that ubuntu is not properly changing to integrate GFX card when its not being used, and in general using max resources. is anyone familiar with this? | 16:28 |
| ezra-s | Sheco, don't know if there is a better way | 16:28 |
| LuckySMack | normally windows only kicks on the full gfx card when i enable it. i have a radeon. | 16:29 |
| ezra-s | Sheco, leave super key pressed and see if there is an option that suits you | 16:29 |

I want to use a 16:9 monitor now and was wondering if any of you have a good motherboard and monitor combination that you have used. The reason for this is my motherboard and a 16:9 monitor dont jive together and the screen resolution is off. I have updated any driver that may be needed with no luck | 17:52 |
| chopper79 | I have also tried 6 different monitors | 17:52 |
| chopper79 | with no luck on screen reolution | 17:52 |
| Deepfriedice | glitchd: Ahh, great. I take it this is Mircosofts commitment to convenience and progress showing? | 17:52 |
| Deepfriedice | chopper79: why do you think the problem has anything to do with your motherboard? | 17:53 |
| moppers | Deepfriedice, it's a known issue with the terribad onboard vga on some ecs boards | 17:53 |
| glitchd | Deepfriedice, As part of its changes to decrease boot times, Win 8 actually loads in the background and the boot menu is more a formality: if you click to boot Windows 8, you’ll instantly be presented with the login screen; if you choose to load another operating system, your machine will reboot before loading into the other OS. | 17:54 |
| wilee-nilee | !uefi | newcholby | 17:54 |
| ubottu | newcholby: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 17:54 |
| moppers | chopper79, ECS is a very cheap and often get issues like this at that price band: tomshardware or any of the other PC builder websites do good reviews of motherboards | 17:54 |
| wilee-nilee | newcholby, The ubuntu forums has the uefi support. | 17:55 |
| wilee-nilee | best* | 17:55 |
| chopper79 | moppers- I will check there. Is there anything I can do to make the widescreens work on the ECS boards as I need to keep these puters cost down | 17:56 |

| jerry_ | looking for a version for eeepc 900, pointers, thanks | 18:12 |
| ZynACK | wilee-nilee, We tried this but we needed the root password which we don't have. | 18:13 |
| wilee-nilee | ZynACK, There is no root password unless you set one. | 18:14 |
| ZynACK | Yeah maybe there was. | 18:14 |
| wilee-nilee | ZynACK, Not from ubuntu you have to remember here. | 18:14 |
| wilee-nilee | whether you made one | 18:15 |
| jrib | !password | ZynACK | 18:15 |
| ubottu | ZynACK: Forgot your password? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords | 18:15 |
| jrib | ZynACK: once you gain access to the account with sudo you should reset the root password as well (or lock it according to the instructions in ubottu's !sudo factoid) | 18:16 |

| wilee-nilee | athreya, the easiest way to diagnose this is using the bootinfo summary on the bootrepair, run it only and post the url generated, use the live cd/usb. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 18:21 |

| wilee-nilee | Quest, I have never used it, however it appears you need a client to use it. http://www.ubuntututorials.com/install-google-talk-ubuntu-12-04/ | 19:26 |
| crankharder | bekks: no, static ip address | 19:27 |
| Pici | Quest: I was under the impression that it just provided extra functionality to the web-based client. | 19:27 |
| kboodu | crankharder: you can also ADD it to the 127.0.0.1 line, but some programs haven't liked it very much. | 19:27 |
| Pici | Quest: also, if you are just looking for something that can interact with google talk, any jabber client will do. | 19:27 |
| bekks | crankharder: Just add a line for your IP and yourr hostname. | 19:27 |
| crankharder | i did, still not working | 19:28 |
| Quest | Pici, wilee-nilee what will this do -> ? echo "deb http://dl.google.com/linux/talkplugin/deb/ stable main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-talk-$(lsb_release -sc).list && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install google-talkplugin i needed a messenger | 19:28 |

| troulouliou_dev | hi since i migrated to 13.04; when i unplug and then plug back the ethernet cable ; my card is not set to up state | 20:20 |
| troulouliou_dev | and i need to reboot the computer | 20:20 |
| semitones | can I run "apt-get dist-upgrade" to be just like update manager? | 20:20 |
| iceroot | semitones: yes | 20:20 |
| transit441 | dist upgrade will upgrade you from like 12.04 to 12.10 etc semitones | 20:21 |
| iceroot | transit441: no | 20:21 |
| transit441 | no? | 20:21 |
| iceroot | transit441: no | 20:21 |
| Pici | !dist-upgrade | transit441 | 20:21 |
| ubottu | transit441: A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. | 20:21 |
| kboodu | troulouliou_dev: Will "sudo service network restart" solve your problem? | 20:21 |
| transit441 | upgrade is for packages right? | 20:21 |
| transit441 | !upgrade | 20:21 |
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 20:21 |
| dury | transit441: sudo aptitude purge mysql* ? | 20:21 |
| transit441 | should do it | 20:21 |
| dury | transit441: as before? | 20:21 |
| iceroot | transit441: upgrade and dist-upgrade will both update the packages to the latest version (for the ubuntu release you are using) but dist-upgrade is also chaging dependencies | 20:22 |
| transit441 | iceroot: so whats the difference between apt-get upgrade and dist-upgrade | 20:22 |
| MonkeyDust | dury use apt-get, not aptitude | 20:22 |
| transit441 | ah | 20:22 |
| Pici | transit441: ubottu just explained it as well. | 20:22 |
| transit441 | yea i get it now | 20:22 |
| transit441 | iceroot made more sense | 20:22 |
| semitones | transit441, i believe dist-upgrade differs from upgrade in that it installs all installable packages, and attempts to intelligently handle dependencies, whereas "upgrade" doesn't install things like kernel upgrades for some reason. | 20:22 |
| Pici | semitones: A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. | 20:22 |
| dury | transit441: sudo apt-get purge mysql* then? | 20:23 |
| utfans05 | actually dist-upgrade handles some of the bigger things. alot of those things require restarts to work correctly | 20:23 |
| iceroot | semitones: a kernel update will install a new package, because you have a meta-package installed called linuxc-generic-image and that metapackage will pull a new package for each kernel, that is done with dist-upgrade | 20:23 |
| iceroot | utfans05: dist-upgrade has nothing to do with bigger things or restarts | 20:23 |
| transit441 | dury: ask MonkeyDust. I use aptitude when I do purges but he probably has some sort of reason for apt-get | 20:23 |
| semitones | thanks pici and iceroot -- I understand much better now! | 20:23 |
| transit441 | so iceroot should you do dist-upgrade regularly? | 20:24 |
| transit441 | i remember i did it like a year ago and a ton of things broke | 20:24 |
| transit441 | so ive always avoided it | 20:24 |
| transit441 | i thought it upgraded from 12.04 to 12.10 | 20:24 |
| iceroot | transit441: always use dist-upgrade to get the latest security fixes, with upgrade you will miss some updates | 20:24 |
| junixbr | hi there | 20:24 |

| bwat47 | acovrig, in my experience laptop heat issues in linux are usually something video card related, ubuntu has cpu frequency scaling enabled by default already. I doubt disabling hyperthreading would cool down the cpu at all in any case, and turbo only goes into effect under high cpu load so I doube thats increasing your temps at 3% cpu usage. Does your laptop have a dedicated video card? | 20:59 |

| anew | so httpd.conf is no longer in use ? | 21:06 |
| Pricey | anew: All of the config files are the same. You can put it wherever you want and it'll still work. However... the idea with sites-available/sites-enabled is that you separate out each bit of your server into it's own config file. | 21:06 |
| anew | hmmm | 21:06 |
| Pricey | anew: httpd.conf then gets reserved for the defaults etc. | 21:06 |

| wilee-nilee | iBelieve, Not sure of any answer, it just seemed like a long way around. | 21:34 |
| iBelieve | wilee-nilee, what do you mean, "a long way around"? | 21:35 |
| johnjohn101 | i saw that there is an app in the software center that compiles kde from their repositiories. how well does it work? | 21:35 |
| wilee-nilee | iBelieve, You had not said that this was your build, to get just a weather app compiling seems strange is all. | 21:36 |
| johnjohn101 | i wanted to mess around with kde 4.10.3 | 21:36 |
| wilee-nilee | iBelieve, At least for me but I don't compile or write code. | 21:37 |
| OerHeks | iBelieve, likely your "Unity Next" install messed up. | 21:37 |
| iBelieve | OerHeks, I think it did, maybe due to Qt5/Qt4 stuff. Do you know of a way to uninstall it? | 21:38 |
| anew | https://gist.github.com/anonymous/8cee862eab2d87e2e891 i'm getting 'bad flag deliminators' from this, anyone know why? | 21:38 |
| OerHeks | iBelieve, how did you install ? tru a PPA? | 21:38 |
| wilee-nilee | iBelieve, This website gives you full de package lists in messing around you might check there, depends on how you installed unity and if you have picked at it removing or adding stuff. http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/ | 21:39 |
| SolarisBoy | anew: check that your syntax is accurate [R=402,L,R] | 21:40 |
| SolarisBoy | *404 | 21:40 |
| iBelieve | OerHeks, From these instructions: http://unity.ubuntu.com/getinvolved/development/unitynext/. Internally, it looks like it added PPAs and other dependencies. It doesn't seem to have any instructions to remove it. | 21:40 |
| wilee-nilee | playing around* | 21:40 |
| Ejdesgaard | asdf2345: wilee-nilee do I have to use http://ubuntu-tweak.com/ to fix it? | 21:40 |
| wilee-nilee | Ejdesgaard, That will work yeah. | 21:40 |
| SolarisBoy | anew: try without specifying the type of redirect and see if that works - i suspect it doesn't like the equal sign within the brackets | 21:40 |
| wilee-nilee | add the ppa | 21:40 |
| OerHeks | iBelieve, not a ppa, so ppa-purge would not help. | 21:41 |
| anew | it was the space in the flag, but still not working | 21:41 |
| SolarisBoy | not working as in - your still getting the same error? or your redirect is not functioning as expected? | 21:41 |
| SolarisBoy | whitespace/odd character fixed should resolve the flag syntax issue | 21:41 |
| iBelieve | OerHeks, It says that the command internally added ppa:phablet-team/desktop-deps. Don't know what else it did, though. | 21:42 |
| asdf2345 | Ejdesgaard: i thnik tweak cant help u if i got u right | 21:42 |
| anew | solarisboy not working as in rewrite is not working, no errors now | 21:42 |
| anew | i have this in my vhost file | 21:42 |
| iBelieve | OerHeks, would #ubuntu-touch be a better place to ask about uninstalling it? | 21:42 |
| iBelieve | wilee-nilee, Thanks, I'll look at that. | 21:42 |
| SolarisBoy | anew: ahh thats what i suspected - without your logging turned up or present in the post - i would generally say check that | 21:43 |
| anew | ok, to enable rewritelog is that in apache2.conf ? | 21:43 |
| asdf2345 | if u mean resize buttons on your windows u have to deal with the terminal cods | 21:43 |
| SolarisBoy | anew: but the regex does look odd in the sense of what are you attempting to look for exactly? ^[^.] (something that begines with anything)? | 21:43 |
| anew | yeah i'm trying to 404 sub.sub.site.com | 21:44 |
| asdf2345 | but if u mean remove buttons then i can offer u a simple solution which is in ubuntu software center | 21:44 |
| asdf2345 | *re-move | 21:44 |
| SolarisBoy | anew .+\.site\.com$ unless your really only looking for subdomains 3 levels deep or so - but sure the apache2.conf is where you can turn the Redirect logging up | 21:45 |
| wilee-nilee | iBelieve, asdf2345 http://imagebin.org/256864 | 21:45 |
| SolarisBoy | anew: you can keep the initial ^ for anchoring if you'd like - AFAIK the extra stuff if just extra =) | 21:45 |
| SolarisBoy | anew: or you can probably create some sort of character class and use a multiplier on that to clean it up - not really sure - but start by looking at your log output as to things are matching or not | 21:46 |
| anew | solarisboy i'm only looking for subdomains 3 levels deep | 21:46 |
| Ejdesgaard | asdf2345: I want to have maximize, minimize and close moved from the upper left corner of the windows, to where everyone else(except i*) have them placed, in the upper right corner, in the orderr of maximize, minimize, close :) | 21:46 |
| asdf2345 | sorry i was misunderstood but wilee-nilee helped u i thnik | 21:47 |
| zykotick9 | Ejdesgaard: see if "/msg ubottu controls" still applies? | 21:47 |
| anew | getting rewrite log now | 21:47 |
| CarlFK | is there a command line tool that will upload an image to an image host and show me the URL? | 21:48 |
| wilee-nilee | Ejdesgaard, Sorry meant this for you in your question on ubuntu tweak. http://imagebin.org/256864 | 21:49 |
| wilee-nilee | can be done in unity-tweak or dconf-editor I think, not sure I don'y use unity. | 21:50 |
| wilee-nilee | don't | 21:50 |
| Ejdesgaard | wilee-nilee: what DE are you using? | 21:51 |
| derp | sup | 21:52 |
| wilee-nilee | Ejdesgaard, The gnome-shell | 21:53 |
| wilee-nilee | tweaked a bt | 21:53 |
| wilee-nilee | bit* | 21:53 |
| Ejdesgaard | wilee-nilee: is that setup also under the lts ? | 21:58 |
| wilee-nilee | Ejdesgaard, Yes it is the gnome 3 desktop. | 21:58 |
| Ejdesgaard | then i'l try gnome3 :) | 21:59 |
| wilee-nilee | Ejdesgaard, Installed as gnome-shell this also adds a pseudo gnome 2 fallback de. | 21:59 |
| Ejdesgaard | wilee-nilee: interesting | 21:59 |
| wilee-nilee | Ejdesgaard, The gnome shell though only has a close button, you can add the minimize and maximize using the gnome-tweak tool and add extensions. | 22:00 |
| netlar | Is there suppose to be a start up sound when you boot up with Ubuntu? | 22:02 |
| wilee-nilee | Ejdesgaard, I use a number of the extensions here as well like the topbar hide and others. https://extensions.gnome.org/ | 22:02 |
| bekks | netlar: Nope. | 22:02 |
| Ejdesgaard | wilee-nilee: are these extensions and tweaks saved in ~/.gnome* ? | 22:02 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm | 22:03 |
| wilee-nilee | Ejdesgaard, saved in /home/user/.local/share | 22:03 |
| netlar | There used to be right, in earlier versions? | 22:03 |
| bekks | netlar: Never heard one. | 22:03 |
| Ejdesgaard | wilee-nilee: can I use ubuntu one to sync the extensions and tweaks between 2 computers? | 22:03 |
| wilee-nilee | Ejdesgaard, ubuntu one just syncs files as far as I know not the OS. | 22:04 |
| Ejdesgaard | wilee-nilee: yea, it sync files, I just wonder if it can sync /home/user/[whatever I want to sync] | 22:06 |
| Sashmo_ | anyone have an idea why vlc wouldnt open a UDP unicast in linux, but it opens in windows?? | 22:06 |
| iBelieve | Is there any way to remove all changes apt-get ran today? I basically need to undo everything that got installed today. | 22:08 |
| wilee-nilee | iBelieve, /var/log/dpkg.log will show your work. | 22:11 |
| Dr_Willis | I dont think theres an easy way to rollback like that. | 22:11 |
| wilee-nilee | true picking at it is a good way to brick it. | 22:12 |
| Dr_Willis | well.. break it.. ;) bricking means somthing totally differnt to me. | 22:12 |
| utfans05 | i agree Dr_Willis bricking would make the computer as useful as a brick... | 22:13 |
| Dr_Willis | Used to mean throwing a brick at somthing. ;) but these kids and their fancy new slang... get off my lawn! | 22:13 |
| wilee-nilee | Dr_Willis, Yeah, break would be the proper term | 22:13 |
| wilee-nilee | lol | 22:13 |
| johnjohn101 | i'm running kdesrc-build, do i need to do anything else to boot into kde? this is on 13.04 | 22:14 |
| iBelieve | wilee-nilee, Does that show the same as Software Center? There is a lot less extra info in Software Center, so if I have to do it manually, I'd rather do that | 22:14 |
| wilee-nilee | iBelieve, YOu have done some things you have not explained completely. For example adding unity, really if you want help here and the safety of correct resetting if even possible you have to give exact details. | 22:15 |
| wilee-nilee | personally I can peck at the OS but I have clones if completely break it and have been using t for 5 years some some experience. | 22:17 |
| wilee-nilee | s/I/so | 22:17 |
| asdf2345 | iBelieve: u can check here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/how-do-i-get-apt-get-to-completely-uninstall-a-package-237772/ why im suggesting this page u can understand if u check it | 22:17 |
| wilee-nilee | thats 2004, lol | 22:19 |
| asdf2345 | so? are basic commands going change in years? | 22:19 |
| Dr_Willis | basic commands have been the same for decades | 22:20 |
| Dr_Willis | but what basic commands are you refering to?> ;) | 22:21 |

| Jamiem93 | I installed vbox but i keep getting a kernal error. | 22:21 |
| Jamiem93 | i have no idea what to do, the error is 1908. | 22:22 |

| asdf2345 | like purge remove or reinstall deinstall | 22:22 |
| Jamiem93 | any ideas? | 22:23 |
| veryhappy | if you would just look up for virtualbox 1908 then you'd also get some solutions i guess | 22:23 |
| wilee-nilee | asdf2345, Not all configs or dependencies are always removed with purge however. | 22:23 |

| veryhappy | Guest91260: did that already happen before or just once? if so it could be a coincidence that it just happened in that moment you might need to change your fan. | 22:28 |

| mojtaba | and nothing happens | 22:30 |

| Dr_Willis | missepell a word | 22:32 |
| veryhappy | for example like druk instead of drug :P | 22:32 |
| mojtaba | Dr_Willis: I put a missepell word, and pressed F7, but it is not working. | 22:32 |
| Dr_Willis | all i did was type in some stuff.. and hit F7, it prompoted to correct a word.. i hit the options button | 22:33 |

| Dr_Willis | does the word have red squiggles under it? | 22:33 |
| mojtaba | Dr_Willis: no | 22:33 |

| mojtaba | Dr_Willis: I have done this, but it is not working. | 22:34 |

| Dr_Willis | id have to say ask in #libreoffice could be you dont have any dictionaries enabled. | 22:36 |

| nrdb | mojtaba, so is one of those installed... for you location of course. | 22:39 |
| SolarisBoy | anew: a negative regex class maybe | 22:39 |
| mojtaba | nrdb: Then why it is not working? | 22:40 |
| SolarisBoy | anew: check and see if this works in apache /[^www]/ in which case you want to get that class in the proper location within your regex | 22:40 |
| anew | solarisboy i place that where in line 2 ? | 22:40 |
| nrdb | mojtaba, that is not a list of the ones installed but of the ones available... you need to check if one of those is installed with apt-get | 22:40 |
| SolarisBoy | anew: ultimately meaning - use this regular expression but don't match on strings like www (as long as you put that where it belongs which would likely be right after your start pieces of your regex) | 22:40 |
| SolarisBoy | srry i haven't been keeping up to date with the room so not sure how much your regexp has changed | 22:41 |
| anew | ah ok... but that goes on it's own seperate line ? | 22:41 |
| SolarisBoy | anew: nah it's best to put on it's own line - or if you will be using 2 lines - ensure to use AND versus OR (i believe thats the default but just in case) | 22:41 |
| mojtaba | nrdb: Then I should use apt-get install and the name of those packages? | 22:41 |
| nrdb | mojtaba, yes | 22:42 |
| anew | solarisboy sorry, on it's own line or on line 2 ? | 22:42 |
| SolarisBoy | condition line as that is matching the data - | 22:42 |
| SolarisBoy | line 1 | 22:42 |
| anew | ok | 22:43 |
| anew | ok let me try this | 22:43 |
| SolarisBoy | anew: can you show me your latest condition line? | 22:43 |

| anew | ok two lines | 22:57 |
| SolarisBoy | anew: on top of that line that works (reverted)... you will want a simple regexp like !^www.+ | 22:57 |
| GunArm1 | *update-grub | 22:57 |
| SolarisBoy | and that is all and then keep your other lines the same - which should read as not www but your other line - apply rule - | 22:58 |

| anew | actually wait | 23:01 |
| anew | i think it might have worked | 23:01 |
| anew | testing | 23:01 |
| Kion1 | miljo: yes you mean the .iso image right? | 23:01 |
| IAmM | Also, my CD drive is broken | 23:01 |
| SolarisBoy | ok gotta go actually =( | 23:01 |
| IAmM | Or disc drive, I should say | 23:01 |
| anew | woooo | 23:01 |
| anew | that did it tho | 23:01 |
| anew | man thanks | 23:01 |
| mojtaba | Does anybody know how can I have auto-correction activated in libre office 4? | 23:01 |
| anew | going to eat a sandwich | 23:01 |

| anew | thanks a lot man ! | 23:01 |
| miljo | Kion1, yes, make sure you have the live image iso, not the alternative install. | 23:01 |
| SolarisBoy | lol no worries bro | 23:01 |
| Kion1 | miljo: now Since that is a w8 computer and do not have unetbootin, how do you burn the image to the USB? | 23:01 |
| IAmM | It's stuck closed, so I can't put in discs | 23:01 |
| SolarisBoy | good evening/night/morning etc | 23:01 |
| IAmM | But I will try the given link | 23:01 |
| IAmM | Thank you, kind users of Solaris! | 23:02 |
| Kion1 | miljo: any program for W8 that will burn the image to the usb? | 23:02 |
| nrdb | IAmM, try a bootable USB then... It won't change the HDD so you can test ... then reboot with no changed done. | 23:02 |
| miljo | Kion1, Don't know, haven't run MS stuff in a while. | 23:02 |
| miljo | Kion1, might want to do some searching. | 23:02 |

| miljo | Kion1, worse case you can load virtualbox on your machine and load ubuntu then work from there. | 23:04 |
