| funky | yes but how? | 00:39 |
| wilee-nilee | hemangpatel, You have to go through 12.10 for an upgrade. | 00:39 |
| funky | vu1kan: i tried to enable in options on login | 00:39 |
| funky | it wont connect | 00:39 |
| hemangpatel | wilee-nilee : first time i got notification .. but i cancalled it | 00:40 |
| hemangpatel | wilee-nilee : now it displays only security updates | 00:40 |
| wilee-nilee | hemangpatel, Have you run a update? | 00:40 |
| funky | sudo su | 00:40 |
| funky | sudo su -c /bin/sftp-server | 00:41 |
| funky | Cannot initialize SFTP protocol. Is the host running a SFTP server? | 00:41 |
| hemangpatel | wilee-nilee : So, I'm thinking to install update first then might be i got option of upgrade | 00:41 |
| funky | maybe just sudo? | 00:41 |
| vu1kan | maybe | 00:41 |
| vu1kan | the sudo su is redundant anyhow | 00:41 |
| wilee-nilee | hemangpatel, You want software sources set for all upgrades not just lts | 00:41 |
| hemangpatel | wilee-nilee : it's set | 00:42 |
| funky | vu1kan: sudo wont work | 00:42 |
| funky | goes to login screen again | 00:42 |
| funky | sudo -c /bin/sftp-server maybe? | 00:42 |
| wilee-nilee | hemangpatel, In the terminal run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist upgrade accept and offers then look in update manager for a upgrade to 12.10. | 00:43 |
| wilee-nilee | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 00:43 |
| hemangpatel | ok let me check | 00:43 |
| hemangpatel | wilee-nilee : ask for update | 00:45 |
| hemangpatel | wilee-nilee : not 13.04 | 00:46 |
| wilee-nilee | hemangpatel, 12.04 goes to 12.10 not 13.04 | 00:46 |
| OerHeks | indeed, you need to go trough 12.10 to 13.04, fresh install will be faster. | 00:46 |
| wilee-nilee | lts to lts generally or release to release, sometimes there are other options | 00:46 |

| betrayd | funky, i'd kill -9 the processID thats competing with your winscp | 01:04 |
| wilee-nilee | Malibusteve, You can turn off that fast boot from windows I believe, take a look at the web or ask in ##windows. | 01:04 |
| betrayd | funky to recover i'd attempt a second SCp later when the first one ends, and only target the suspicious dir in the seond winscp so it won't be as long | 01:05 |

| g0bl1n | 20GB / that only has the OS. /home is mounted on another disk | 01:23 |
| jrib | g0bl1n: try ncdu or judicious use of find? My guess would be /var/log/ | 01:24 |
| Ben64 | could also be a process opening a bunch of files, deleting them, and not closing them | 01:24 |
| g0bl1n | jrib, /var/log is stable, 375megas... | 01:24 |
| Ben64 | "du" can help too | 01:25 |
| g0bl1n | Ben64, I believe could be that. lsof is reporting a big (deleted) log, but the thing is, its not on the / but on the other disk. Weird. | 01:26 |

| betrayd | veryhappy: do you see the monitor in nvidia server settings? | 01:35 |
| veryhappy | betrayd: yes. | 01:35 |
| seronis | Novimundus_, check for a 'reuse address' or 'reuse port' type flag to set when opening the listening port | 01:35 |
| Ben64 | veryhappy: http://labnotes.decampo.org/2013/01/nvidia-overscan-in-ubuntu-1210.html | 01:35 |

| roasted | I installed 13.04 on a Chromebook. The fresh install felt server-esque in that it had no GUI. I installed ubuntu-desktop in terminal, but when I log in, I get the background without a Unity launcher. I assume I'm missing the Unity plugin. Is there a way to enable it via terminal? | 01:39 |
| saxplayer1216 | or have decent knowlodge? | 01:39 |
| alien2050 | I know it's probably a locale issue, but I'm using en_CA.UTF-8 which should be pretty standard... anybody knows why gnome-terminal displays weird chars like this -> rm: cannot remove âisolinux/vesamenu.c32â ; I tried locale-gen, etc... to no avail... ideas? | 01:41 |
| seronis | Novimundus_, Good luck with your project. They're still one of my favorite retro game types. You should go ahead and look up the python calls needed to set reuse address though. it will solve your issue permanantly instead of needing to kill the process | 01:42 |
| Novimundus_ | seronis: thank you. | 01:42 |
| seronis | btw you basing your codebase on any others ? | 01:43 |

| veryhappy | ok | 01:44 |
| veryhappy | betrayd: so when might i use current-updates? | 01:44 |
| betrayd | veryhappy: i was going to say if you know how the pan looked in xorg.conf (despite resetting resolution) include that metammode in CUrrent xorg.conf and see if your TV allows or can spit out an image | 01:45 |
| betrayd | that q is not for me, for the other guys here | 01:46 |
| veryhappy | ah that one, yea i just saw that current wasn't working anymore don't know why so i purged it and installed current-updates because i think it won't make a difference then if i get both ways the same options | 01:46 |

| Starthunder | Okay, new question. How do I tell unattended-upgrades it's okay to install new packages if they're required to update? | 02:02 |
| tgm4883 | johnjohn101, 1 | 02:02 |
| veryhappy | betrayd: you're right next time i should inform people about my progess how far i am | 02:02 |
| veryhappy | i'll brb have to restart | 02:02 |
| betrayd | veryhappy: i wanted you to see what the log said about both 1280 and that 1216 and why it picked one over the other | 02:03 |
| johnjohn101 | if my brother decides to wait until next spring, i imagine it will be two, right? | 02:03 |
| johnjohn101 | meaning 10.04 -> 14.04 LTS | 02:03 |
| veryhappy | ok betrayd i'll brb after that i'm telling you ok? | 02:03 |
| tgm4883 | johnjohn101, yes that would be two, although you wouldn't have been getting desktop updates for quite a chuck of time there | 02:04 |
| betrayd | veryhappy: ok but I might not | 02:04 |
| johnjohn101 | tgm4883: all he uses is firefox, some picture viewer, and what ever the pdf viewer is | 02:04 |
| Legend2013 | is there a specific place for ubuntu server questions? | 02:04 |
| tgm4883 | Legend2013, #ubuntu-server | 02:05 |
| tgm4883 | johnjohn101, so then it sounds like it's pretty important for him to get security updates, being that he uses software that connects to the internet | 02:05 |

| acovrig | usr13, if I do iwconfig without the network disabled at udev (ifconfig <iface> down doesn't cut it), then I have to do a force reboot (system freezes) | 02:45 |

| uvala | wilee-nilee, no, I didnt. started right away with apt-get install dchroot | 03:56 |

| uvala | SolarisBoy, your question on customization related to my system? | 04:13 |
| silverex | Hey guys, so I'm trying to install AMD catalyst 13.1 on Ubuntu 12.04. I've installed all the dependencies and have generated the packages, but what now? I seem to recall some command to build the packages but I can't remember what it is | 04:15 |
| sysRPL | hello | 04:15 |
| sysRPL | hi ... on 32 bit linux should i install shared object files in /usr/lib or usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu ? | 04:15 |
| sysRPL | just wondering | 04:15 |
| tgm4883 | silverex, what do you mean. You said you generated the packages, so what do you mean you need to build the packages | 04:17 |
| silverex | tgm4883, last time I did this (I've just reinstalled 12.04) I had to generate the distribution specific packages then run some command in the terminal to install the driver from the packages | 04:17 |
| tgm4883 | silverex, 'dpkg -i <packagename>' | 04:18 |
| silverex | tgm4883, Thanks! | 04:18 |
| shadej | hello guys | 04:21 |
| shadej | I am using ubuntu 13.04 | 04:21 |
| uvala | wilee-nilee and SolarisBoy, thank you very much for your help! I said yes to install, and it's done. | 04:21 |
| shadej | i can create adhoc network (wireless) but I am unable to connect to it , even by using the same computer[my pc] | 04:22 |
| makuto | Is there any way to save the current state of Ubuntu before making any potentially damaging changes so you can rollback in case of error? I was planning on installing some graphics drivers which I've had some terrible experiences with (on other computers, 12.04). Basically, a giant undo button for OS changes?

| SolarisBoy | plaguedoctor: that looks like a result of multiple shell sessions | 04:28 |
| plaguedoctor | SolarisBoy, I just rebooted by system and have one, maybe two shell sessions running. What accounts for the other two? | 04:29 |

| Bazinga | I am a noob when it comes to this stuff, how do I start kismet | 04:30 |
| Bazinga | I have it installed | 04:30 |
| SolarisBoy | plaguedoctor: that looks to spawn a pty - and the other two you explained already - | 04:30 |
| shadej | am able to create wireless adhoc on ubuntu13.04 but i cant connect to it [even from the same pc],help please? | 04:31 |
| SolarisBoy | plaguedoctor: for isntance i use screen for managing multiple shell sessions and i have a login for each window when i type 'w'- if that explains it better | 04:31 |
| Bazinga | Can someone help me by telling me how to execute kismet? | 04:31 |
| Ben64 | Bazinga: have you tried typing "kismet" | 04:31 |
| Bazinga | Yes. | 04:31 |
| shadej | what drivers do i need to check to be sure am not missing any software | 04:31 |
| shadej | ? | 04:32 |
| SolarisBoy | use sudo - and you also need to have an interface configured AFAIK Bazinga | 04:32 |
| shadej | Ben64: help? | 04:32 |
| plaguedoctor | SolarisBoy, there should be only two, I figure I botched an install then | 04:33 |
| SolarisBoy | Bazinga: read up on the kismet site/ community posts they have stuff for getting it started if your cards supported | 04:33 |
| Bazinga | SolarisBoy: this is what I got http://pastebin.com/uSUst8G0 | 04:33 |
| Ben64 | !patience | shadej | 04:33 |
| ubottu | shadej: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com/ or http://ubuntuforums.org/ or http://askubuntu.com/ | 04:33 |
| SolarisBoy | plaguedoctor: why should there only be two? are you only considering your open shell sessions ? | 04:33 |
| shadej | ok | 04:33 |
| shadej | sorry | 04:34 |
| tgm4883 | Bazinga, IDK, you might need to "FATAL: Please configure at least one packet source. Kismet will not function if no packet sources are defined in kismet.conf or on the command line. Please read the README for more information about configuring Kismet." | 04:34 |
| plaguedoctor | SolarisBoy, Yeah. I don't want there to be other users listed if there does not have to be | 04:34 |
| i3luefire | if i am running server 12.04LTS and i swap out the mobo and cpu, will i have to reinstall? | 04:34 |
| Ben64 | plaguedoctor: there has to be, don't worry about it | 04:34 |
| Ben64 | i3luefire: no | 04:34 |
| SolarisBoy | Bazinga: 'FATAL: Please configure at least one packet source.' you need to configure an interface as stated - you need to ensure your interface is supported - to avoid a long offtopic convo - check the kismet docs online | 04:34 |
| SolarisBoy | plaguedoctor: it's normal - | 04:35 |
| plaguedoctor | Ben64, But my laptop lists 0 users, so this troubles me | 04:35 |
| qin | plaguedoctor: pts2 and pts3 from w command means terminal windows running top and w respectively, tty7 and pts0 belongs to kde, /var/log/auth.log logins... | 04:35 |
| plaguedoctor | And both run the exact same OS | 04:35 |
| SolarisBoy | plaguedoctor: your laptop isn't your computer and if you go open another shell on your laptop you will start seeing the 1-1 | 04:35 |
| i3luefire | Ben64, it would just recognize the hw change and keep going? | 04:35 |
| qin | plaguedoctor: what command lists 0 users? | 04:35 |
| Ben64 | i3luefire: yeah, unless something isn't supported | 04:36 |
| plaguedoctor | qin, top | 04:36 |
| plaguedoctor | qin for the laptop | 04:36 |
| plaguedoctor | tp for desktop lists more | 04:36 |
| SolarisBoy | desktop is running more processes sir. | 04:36 |

| Ben64 | plaguedoctor: it does not matter at all. don't worry about it | 04:36 |
| Ben64 | i3luefire: should be fine | 04:36 |
| i3luefire | Ben64, ty | 04:36 |
| plaguedoctor | Ben64, Okay, I was concerned about an intrusion | 04:37 |

| Bazinga | tbh I don't even know what I'm looking for | 04:43 |
| plaguedoctor | qin, Thanks | 04:43 |
| SolarisBoy | Bazinga: otherwise i do not know if you provide details on your wireless NIC maybe someone else does - but if you have that you can do find for yourself | 04:43 |

| SolarisBoy | crakHead: confirmed - you may have installed a 32 bit OS on a 64 bit arch which would also work | 05:27 |
| plaguedoctor | crakHead, 64 bit can run 32 bit--but you want to run a distro designed for your arch. For example, I have an hp 6535b that runs 32 bit windows. You can also run 32 bit ubuntu--but get 64 bit | 05:27 |
| crakHead | SolarisBoy: copy confirmed | 05:27 |
| plaguedoctor | crakHead, It is best to use a distro designed specifically for your arch | 05:28 |
| plaguedoctor | crakHead, So use 64 bit as your arch is 64 bit | 05:28 |

But 13.04 caused problems again (whenever I connected the DELL). So I installed 12.10 again. After I thought, I had a useful configuration X starts causing problems when the smaller monitor is connected. Where can I find help? | 05:35 |

| fishlock | hi all | 05:37 |
| savagecroc | Hi all.. i have to setup 30 development machines running ubuntu 12.04. The configuration across all of the machines is going to be fairly similar, but i would like to setup the process so that it is automated | 05:37 |
| savagecroc | i have a bunch of ruby scripts for installing various applications etc, but i'm not sure the best way of going about it | 05:38 |
| savagecroc | the configuration will change continuously (new versions of software, new locations etc) so a straight image is not always the best solution | 05:38 |
| el-condor | estan por ai soy nuevo | 05:38 |
| SolarisBoy | savagecroc: im not sure your situation - but you should really look into a configuration management system at that point | 05:38 |
| savagecroc | additionally the computers are going to have slightly different configurations (i.e. these 5 developers need a copy of windows) | 05:38 |
| savagecroc | SolarisBoy: yeah that's what i was thinking... we use chef for our production servers | 05:39 |
| savagecroc | but i don't know if people use it for their development machines | 05:39 |
| SolarisBoy | savagecroc: +1 on chef | 05:39 |
| SolarisBoy | savagecroc: why not? in fact chef supports multi environment internally - | 05:39 |
| savagecroc | really ok | 05:40 |
| SolarisBoy | savagecroc: eg you can have cookbooks/roles for dev/prod/<user defined> | 05:40 |
| savagecroc | oh right | 05:40 |
| savagecroc | what about for running windows concurrently.. we basically have the microsoft office suite for about 6 people and photoshop for 2 | 05:40 |
| savagecroc | would you run it in a vm or have a dedicated partition | 05:41 |
| savagecroc | (all machines have 32gb ram) | 05:41 |
| plaguedoctor | savagecroc, Libreoffice for all! | 05:41 |
| SolarisBoy | savagecroc: they have some shady plugins for windows with chef - i wouldn't neccesiraly suggest them - | 05:41 |
| plaguedoctor | and Gimp! | 05:41 |
| savagecroc | plaguedoctor: we've got a ton of word documents and some fairly hefty documentation requirments | 05:41 |
| SolarisBoy | savagecroc: for windows if you are ina domain you can push with group policy/startup powershell/vb scripts though (pardon my offtopicness) | 05:41 |
| plaguedoctor | libreoffice reads Word | 05:41 |
| savagecroc | plaguedoctor: i find even the mac version of office can not always render and edit word documents correctly | 05:42 |
| savagecroc | open office never used to be good enough, but it has been 4 years since i last tried | 05:42 |
| SolarisBoy | savagecroc: ultimately - look into net/ssh if you aren't going to be installing/configuring chef immediately - otherwise sync the scripts outto the 30 hosts and run them remotely with ssh or such | 05:42 |
| SolarisBoy | savagecroc: ruby gem net/ssh that is | 05:43 |
| plaguedoctor | savagecroc, Libreoffice is the latest fork and it is great | 05:43 |
| savagecroc | SolarisBoy: yeah we have a lot of scripts using net/ssh... we could run them manually over ssh | 05:43 |
| === eSeNek is now known as sn_ | ||
| savagecroc | plaguedoctor: how's the compatibility with normal office? | 05:43 |
| savagecroc | for example google docs is awful | 05:43 |
| === sn_ is now known as eSeNek | ||
| savagecroc | for producing documents for distribution (rendering bugs all the time) | 05:44 |
| plaguedoctor | savagecroc, Excellent. Try it. It is Free as in Freedom! | 05:44 |
| SolarisBoy | i actually think google docs keeps better formatting between open and MS versions savagecroc ... | 05:44 |
| plaguedoctor | or that | 05:44 |
| plaguedoctor | But I like Libre. | 05:44 |
| SolarisBoy | anytime i have used libre/open in a corporate environment people have had issues with the end result - (these are people who never heard of libre/open and only use MS with it's built in templates etc etc) | 05:44 |
| savagecroc | SolarisBoy: I have to disagree we used google docs in our company for 4 years.. and exporting to pdf.. the number of times i've had to go find a windows machine to copy the text in and reformat.. | 05:45 |
| plaguedoctor | Actually I am using Trisquel, which is not pure Ubuntu. It uses the Libre Kernel | 05:45 |
| savagecroc | I'll give libre a shot | 05:45 |
| savagecroc | not having to be tied to office would be really nice | 05:45 |
| SolarisBoy | savagecroc: thats odd i did my resume in libre and used gdocs to convert it to PDF thats actually what i give out for the exact inverse of your case | 05:45 |
| plaguedoctor | savagecroc, You can share the software, and you'll be free. You can help your neighbor. | 05:45 |
| savagecroc | SolarisBoy: we use it rather heavily... google docs is massively underpowered.. for example tables of contents (with engineering style numbering) | 05:46 |
| savagecroc | it's really good for collaboration | 05:46 |
| SolarisBoy | yes i agree | 05:46 |
| savagecroc | haha.. we often use InDesign for making brochures and stuff and that's got tons of annoying problems | 05:46 |
| savagecroc | for a piece of software dedicated to producing printed documents | 05:47 |
| plaguedoctor | savagecroc, You can use Scribus for multi page layout | 05:47 |
| savagecroc | Gimp actually replaces 80% of photoshops functionality.. i could see people using it professionally.. in fact i had one guy who said they liked gimp a lot better than photoshop and would only occasionally use it | 05:48 |
| plaguedoctor | savagecroc, Scribus is free. I designed brochures, CD's, vinyl record packaging, booklets, cassette packaging... | 05:48 |
| savagecroc | nice.. ok | 05:48 |
| chenqisu | plaguedoctor: Maybe you are right, thanks | 05:48 |
| savagecroc | so windows.. virtualised or give it a bootable partiion | 05:48 |
| savagecroc | or both? | 05:49 |
| savagecroc | The computers have 240gb SSDs.. so it's not that much space | 05:49 |
| plaguedoctor | chenqisu, Look at the BSD license, which is different from the GPL. Apple can use the code from BSD and not give due credit. | 05:49 |
| plaguedoctor | It is legal. | 05:49 |
| savagecroc | plaguedoctor: i love the bsd license :D | 05:50 |
| plaguedoctor | savagecroc, If you are Apple, you love it even more | 05:50 |

| plaguedoctor_ | crakHead, The next step in your evolution is abandoning all DRM | 06:30 |
| crakHead | plaguedoctor_: what is that ? | 06:32 |
| plaguedoctor_ | crakHead, DRP = Digital Rights Management = Evil | 06:33 |
| plaguedoctor_ | crakHead, www.gnu.org | 06:33 |
| plaguedoctor_ | DRM | 06:33 |
| plaguedoctor_ | not DRP, late night | 06:33 |
| plaguedoctor_ | heh | 06:33 |
| UbuBegin | which ubuntu pdf reader has a night mode (instead of black font on white background, it is vice versa aka as like bash shell/vim) | 06:35 |
| plaguedoctor_ | crakHead, Ubuntu has proprietary bits, but it is less restrictive. DRM is code that is restricted. Windows is software that only microsoft writes and controls. | 06:36 |
| UbuBegin | k, found it in Document Viewer... :) | 06:36 |
| plaguedoctor_ | crakHead, http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/philosophy.html | 06:37 |
| joeytwiddle_ | Wow Vim's w jumps over ':' characters. This ubuntu is a whole new world. | 06:41 |
| crakHead | plaguedoctor_: eye see .. open source= good DRM = evil ? | 06:41 |
| InFlames | crakHead, i think that's accurate | 06:41 |
| babycakes | I'm not sure if off topic, but RMS actually was positive about Steam coming to Linux, despite DRM | 06:41 |
| InFlames | babycakes, that's surprising | 06:42 |

| UbuntuNewbie | Greetings. I have an Asus laptop with i3 processor, HD3000 iGPU. I installed Ubuntu 13.04 yesterday, seemed to work alright. A few hangs at boot and reboot but nothing a cold boot didn't fix. Then I had to reboot, now it won't load. It just hangs once I select Ubuntu from Grub. Also when I go into Advanced and select generic Ubuntu, it hangs at "loading ram disk". Any help please? | 06:46 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: sounds like either a hardware problem or at least file system corruption to me | 06:50 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: maybe from the crashes you had | 06:50 |
| UbuntuNewbie | Had no crashes and my hardware works just fine. | 06:51 |
| crakHead | once i have Ubuntu installed . do i need to do anything so that random people can not access my root drive with open SSH ? or do i need to be running a FTP client for that to happen ? | 06:51 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: I thought you said hangs at boot and reboots | 06:51 |
| chenqisu | UbuntuNewbie: intall with usb and select the first option? | 06:51 |
| NuSuey | anybody know why this keeps happening every time I log to ubuntu? https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-ypKQOsEieB8/UYoZTQ5lZ-I/AAAAAAAA1RE/GmR19GpHtqw/w902-h677-no/IMG_20130507_174857_0.jpg .. opening DISPLAY and hitting APPLY fixes it. but till then, the left screen is messy.. | 06:52 |
| Myrtti | crakHead: ssh server isnt even preinstalled | 06:52 |
| hachre | crakHead: SSH requires your password, the other option FTP might have an anonymous account but that isn't activated per default | 06:52 |
| UbuntuNewbie | When it was freshly installed yeah. But I was able to login. Sometimes after a reboot, it would hang. I just turned of my laptop and back in and it would work. | 06:52 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: did it hang at that prompt or later in the boot process? | 06:52 |
| UbuntuNewbie | It hangs after I select Ubuntu from the GNU Grub | 06:53 |
| gustav | NuSuey: Something is wrong. | 06:53 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: yes now, but where did it hang in the past when you turned it off | 06:53 |
| NuSuey | gustav: hey, you are so clever :P | 06:53 |
| UbuntuNewbie | Just a purple screen | 06:53 |
| gustav | NuSuey: :D | 06:53 |
| NuSuey | gustav: what about a tip how to fix it?:D | 06:53 |
| UbuntuNewbie | Oh purple screen too. | 06:53 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: ah ok, then by turning off you did the same thing that a crash would do most likely and you now have filesystem corruption | 06:54 |
| gustav | NuSuey: No idea. Probably a bug and good luck with that, as they say. | 06:54 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: you have to boot the installation cd and choose try out ubuntu, you can run a check from there | 06:54 |
| NuSuey | gustav: -.^ thanks | 06:54 |
| gustav | NuSuey: Is there an application blocking or what is the black? | 06:54 |
| UbuntuNewbie | Can't I do that from the Grub? | 06:54 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: no | 06:54 |
| crakHead | with Ubuntu , will i still be able to use my programs iFunbox and FileZilla ? what about iTunes ? | 06:55 |
| NuSuey | gustav: nah, havent run anything. so its basicly nothing :o | 06:55 |
| NuSuey | weird as hell :o | 06:55 |
| hachre | crakHead: FileZilla yes, iFunbox I don't know the program, iTunes not out of the box | 06:55 |
| ra-fi | hi i try to install keepnote apps from repository as sudo apt-get install keepnote,but there is no keepnote in repository can you please tell me how can i install keepnote on my ubuntu host | 06:56 |
| crakHead | ok . i got a problem then . i modify iPhone ios , and the dev tool redsn0w only runs on windows or Mac OS .. uh oh . big prob for me here | 06:57 |
| chenqisu | crakHead: Install dual system | 06:59 |
| crakHead | chenqisu: wait ! there may be a way ... libimobiledevice-utils ? | 07:00 |
| wilee-nilee | ra-fi, I see keepnotes in the ubuntu software center in raring | 07:00 |
| hachre | crakHead: there is the option to run windows apps through wine but I generally wouldn't recommend that with stuff that requires hardware access | 07:01 |
| wilee-nilee | ra-fi, https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/keepnote/ | 07:02 |

| Ben64 | SeanChiarot: no problem | 07:02 |
| crakHead | hachre: i remember something like that for Mac OS ... Wine bottles app , running exe virtually ? | 07:02 |
| hachre | crakHead: yeah, same thing | 07:02 |
| UbuntuNewbie | Okay I've selected "Try Ubuntu without installing" | 07:03 |

| UbuntuNewbie | It's now changed to root@ubuntu;/# | 07:23 |
| UbuntuNewbie | LVM makes it easier to create partitions from what I read | 07:24 |

| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: ok you are basically insinde your installed ubuntu now with that terminal, now do 'apt-get install --reinstall linux-image linux-headers' | 07:24 |
| lolipop | lotuspsychje, Only info I found is that it can take snapshots and make volume management easier. but HOW? | 07:25 |
| jony | how can I store full paths of a network share even in a txt? | 07:25 |

| UbuntuNewbie | vmlinuz-3.8.0.19-generic | 07:39 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: now do 'apt-cache search 3.8.0.19-generic' | 07:39 |

| UbuntuNewbie | No, nothing like that | 07:41 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: ok try 'apt-cache search linux-image | grep 3.8.0' | 07:41 |
| UbuntuNewbie | Okie doke :-) | 07:42 |
| hachre | how many results? | 07:42 |
| Blubberbop | On Ubuntu 12.04, I have a company server here, admin ran off with root pw, and I need to recover access.

| Blubberbop | recovery mode root shell also requires root password | 07:42 |
| UbuntuNewbie | I can't do that | it just gives me greater than and less than symbols | 07:43 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: then do just 'apt-cache search linux-image' you will have to read through it and only look at the ones that have the version number in it | 07:43 |
| penos | how to uninstall ubuntu | 07:44 |
| theadmin | penos: By installing another OS over it. | 07:45 |
| UbuntuNewbie | I found the | :-) okay I got 3 results. All with "linux-image-3.8.0-19 | 07:45 |
| MonkeyDust | penos boot a live cd, use gparted, delete the ubuntu partition | 07:46 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: ok yuo should have one that is linux-image one that is linux-image-extra and one that is linux-headers basically | 07:46 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: now you'll have to do 'apt-get install --reinstall X Y Z' and fill in the exact names that you got from that search | 07:46 |
| hachre | for X Y Z | 07:46 |
| UbuntuNewbie | linux-image-extra-3.8.0-19 generic yup | 07:46 |
| penos | MonkeyDust: how to remove bootloader? | 07:47 |
| penos | MonkeyDust: just format? | 07:47 |
| theadmin | penos: Again, you'll need to install another bootloader. If you plan to use Windows, then you'll need to use a Windows recovery disk, if you plan to use another Linux OS, just restore GRUB from it's livecd | 07:47 |
| UbuntuNewbie | So an example would be "apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-extra-3.8.0-19-generic" ? | 07:48 |
| hachre | ya | 07:48 |
| UbuntuNewbie | Awesome will do :-) | 07:48 |
| rusty0101 | penos: use gpard, set the windows partition as bootable. Optionally if your system has a recovery boot mode (f10 option at boot possibly) you may be able to restore which should also resize the partition to full size. Recommend backing up personal data on the windows partition first. | 07:48 |

| theadmin | Blubberbop: Oh wait, durr, sure does -- anyway, boot it from the Ubuntu LiveCD and chroot to your main install, then sudo passwd -dl root ; sudo adduser your_username_or_new_username sudo | 07:54 |
| UbuntuNewbie | Fingers crossed hehe :-) | 07:54 |
| hachre | UbuntuNewbie: you should try pressing the power button shortly, it might shut down then after a few seconds instead of holding the powerbutton to turn off | 07:54 |
| theadmin | Blubberbop: Using the root account is quite insecure so best to do it this way | 07:54 |
| daniel_ch | hello. I have Ubuntu 12.04.2 with kernel 3.5.0 and need to recompile some modules, but i`m getting hard to find the correct sources. apt-get only has sources for 3.2.0? Where i can get the correct sources for the installed kernel 3.5.0?? | 07:55 |
| theadmin | !info linux-image-generic precise | 07:55 |
| UbuntuNewbie | YAY! :D WOOOT! Thank you so so much hachre! :-) | 07:55 |
| ubottu | linux-image-generic (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image. In component main, is optional. Version 3.2.0.41.49 (precise), package size 2 kB, installed size 32 kB | 07:55 |
| hachre | great :) glad it helped | 07:55 |
| theadmin | daniel_ch: You're using an unofficial kernel :/ | 07:55 |
| daniel_ch | theadmin, it came with the install cd ?? | 07:56 |
| theadmin | daniel_ch: 12.04 comes with 3.2. | 07:56 |
| theadmin | 12.10 has 3.5 | 07:56 |
| UbuntuNewbie | :D awesome stuff. Much appreciated | 07:57 |
| penos | can we install xerox alto in virtual box? | 07:57 |
| daniel_ch | theadmin, yes but new installs of 12.04 also have 3.5 from 12.10 ... | 07:57 |
| necku | my < and § keys have switched places.. but when I look in keyboard layouts settings, that map shows their correct positions.. sometimes when I start ubuntu it's not like this.. | 07:57 |

| Aethysius` | I'm trying to link my Yahoo account to Ubuntu, but it isn't giving me anything to type my information into. | 08:02 |
| theadmin | daniel_ch: This is odd, I can't find that version of the kernel in Precise repos :/ | 08:02 |
| theadmin | crakHead: Easy, really. Just boot Ubuntu from a USB (use Universal USB Installer, unetbootin fails randomly) or a DVD, start it, click "Install Ubuntu" and then "Install Ubuntu alongside Windows" | 08:03 |
| theadmin | crakHead: The installer will handle the rest. | 08:03 |
| === UbuntuNewbie is now known as Excryption | ||
| crakHead | theadmin: souns easy . let me try that now | 08:03 |
| rusty0101 | acoleman1981: "a good wysiwyg program" for what? If you are looking for a WYWIWYG office documents editor, you should have LibreOffice installed. If you are looking for a Wysiwyg editor for web or music, or something else, things get a bit more complicated. | 08:03 |
| Aethysius` | theadmin, Do you have any idea on how to fix my issue? | 08:03 |
| theadmin | Aethysius`: Nope, I don't use yahoo | 08:04 |
| daniel_ch | theadmin, yes odd it is. i downloaded install cd week ago, and i`m by default with this kernel, why they put it there where there is no support for it? am i wrong, or .. ? sorry, have just week experience with ubuntu | 08:05 |
| vegetablesalad | Hello. On Windows there is this cool application "Process Hacker" where I can suspend running applications and then resume them after a while. Can I do this in Ubuntu? | 08:05 |
| vegetablesalad | Is there similar application for Ubuntu? | 08:05 |
| theadmin | daniel_ch: I'm not understanding this myself | 08:05 |
| theadmin | vegetablesalad: "killall -STOP application_name" to pause, and "killall -CONT application_name" to resume (from a terminal) | 08:06 |
| Joanet | Hi all, I'm trying to create an script for creating users (using useradd) with a default password depending on the username, but it seems to be not working because I cannot login (the password seems to be wrong). Can anyone help me? | 08:06 |
| vegetablesalad | theadmin: Thank you ! | 08:07 |
| acoleman1981 | rusty0101 i'm looking for something comparable to microsoft expression web or dreamweaver | 08:08 |
| theadmin | Joanet: You can't set the password directly by useradd unless you encrypt it yourself, you need to use passwd. Could use expect to automate it | 08:09 |
| vegetablesalad | theadmin: What if application I want to stop is on Java? It only shows up as Java in my process list. | 08:09 |
| vegetablesalad | For example I have 2 java applications running and I want to suspend only one of them. | 08:10 |
| daniel_ch | theadmin, what will you suggest me to do, use the 3.2.0 kernel ? | 08:10 |
| Joanet | theadmin: I'll take a look now. Thanks! | 08:11 |
| sharpshooter | vegetablesalad, try sytem monitor app got to dash and type system monitor there you can get the process of all | 08:11 |
| theadmin | vegetablesalad: Hm, good point... You can use pkill then: "pkill -STOP -f minecraft.jar" or "pkill -CONT -f minecraft.jar" | 08:13 |
| theadmin | vegetablesalad: (you can use pkill with regular apps too, I'm just more used to killall although pkill is more powerful) | 08:13 |
| rusty0101 | acoleman1981: not sure if it will help, I use the command 'apt-cache search html | grep editor" and see one of the results is "tinymce2 - platform independent web based Javascript/HTML WYSIWYG editor". Not sure if that helps. There are possibly others that are in some of the collections that I don't use on this system. | 08:14 |
| acoleman1981 | but if i already have a program downloaded how do i install it, it doesn't open in the software center like some programs do like google chrome | 08:15 |
| penos | i think im gonna install ubuntu in virtual box. it's too interesting to pass by | 08:16 |
| rusty0101 | acoleman1981: When you say you have a program downloaded, how did it download? as a file? (check the Downloads/ folder) or as an app for a browser? | 08:16 |
| theadmin | acoleman1981: If it's a deb, it will open in the softwrae center just fine. Also use Chromium (exact same thing as Chrome except it doens't come with Flash, and you can install Flash separately anyway) | 08:16 |
| penos | i need distro in front of me installed to help ppl here | 08:16 |
| crakHead | ok I am now using UUI to creat the bootable usb with Ubuntu 13.04 on it .. now to install Ubuntu along side of Windows , do i have to actually boot my pc from usb and then in the installer , tell it to install along side windows , thus preserving my evil OS ? | 08:17 |
| sk00ter | I like | 08:17 |

| penos | i have 12GB ram | 08:20 |
| theadmin | penos: Sure | 08:20 |
| penos | and how much hard drive space should i allocate? | 08:21 |
| theadmin | penos: The Ubuntu Desktop system is around 5GB, but you should give extra space for files and programs -- how much is up to you | 08:21 |

| cjae | how do i install the latest kernel for my distro 12.10 | 08:26 |
| cjae | 3.5.0-28-generic is what I have | 08:27 |
| dawkirst | sk00ter, how do I find the correct process though? | 08:27 |
| chenqisu | cjae: download 13.04 and reinstall. lol | 08:27 |
| Ben64 | cjae: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade | 08:28 |
| dawkirst | sk00ter, and if I found it, is the %MEM an accurate indicator? So it's that percentage of total RAM in the physical machine? | 08:28 |
| cjae | chenqisu: brilliant ;-) ........ | 08:28 |
| cjae | Ben64: that puts me on 13.04 which is not what I want | 08:29 |
| cjae | doesnt it | 08:29 |

| cjae | Ben64: nothing | 08:30 |
| penos | i will set 3 GB ram and 100GB hd | 08:30 |
| rusty0101 | dawkirst: to find the process, presuming you know the name of the script, do 'ps -ef | grep "scriptname"' and you should get at least two results. | 08:30 |
| penos | should run fine rite | 08:30 |
| Ben64 | cjae: then you have the latest | 08:31 |
| dawkirst | rusty | 08:31 |
| dawkirst | rusty0101, thanks | 08:31 |
| rusty0101 | One of the two results will be for the grep of the search, one of the others should be the script. | 08:31 |

| rusty0101 | michael87: I would also recommend going to the top of that page and reviewing some of the recommendations regarding editing that file. at the very least make/keep backups. | 10:26 |
| michael87 | rusty0101, thank you for that. But it keeps sayying I don't have gksudo :( | 10:30 |
| thoonai | gordonjcp: I'm sorry, I haven't the machine on power and on the diagnostics table now | 10:30 |
| thoonai | I'll take care of it later | 10:31 |
| MonkeyDust | michael87 sudo apt-get install gksu | 10:31 |
| michael87 | MonkeyDust, tried that didn't work | 10:32 |
| rusty0101 | If you are at the command prompt, try 'sudo nano ...' instead of 'gksudo leafpad ...' (replace 'nano' with another editor if you are familiar with it and have it installed. Or as MonkeyDust noted, you can install gksu as well. | 10:32 |
| MonkeyDust | michael87 what went wrong? | 10:32 |
| michael87 | rusty0101, I think I can find the file manually anyway :) and edit with leafpad | 10:32 |
| MonkeyDust | michael87 gksu is the package that you need for gksudo | 10:33 |
| michael87 | MonkeyDust, just said that gksudo didn't exist in the repos | 10:33 |
| michael87 | MonkeyDust, ohhhhh | 10:33 |
| rusty0101 | What gksudo does is gives you a graphical prompt to authenticate that you are going to edit the file in superuser mode (su). | 10:34 |
| michael87 | MonkeyDust, got it. Thanks :) | 10:34 |
| === dan_ is now known as Guest6619 | ||

| MonkeyDust | silv3r_m00n system settings is where you, well, modify basic system settings | 10:58 |
| silv3r_m00n | MonkeyDust: there was no window/gui as such | 10:58 |
| rusty0101 | michael87: I'm tapped at the moment. Only thing I can think of is to insure that you're using lightdm as the log-in system, and that perhaps the process to update the config has changed since the wiki was last updated. | 10:58 |
| MonkeyDust | silv3r_m00n that's obvious, so you can just kill it | 10:58 |
| silv3r_m00n | oh it was KDE System Settings | 10:58 |

| foofoobar | Hi. I just installed rvm and now I should run "source thefile" | 12:39 |
| dawkirst | Pici, pretty sure yes | 12:39 |
| foofoobar | but "source" is not found | 12:39 |
| foofoobar | Why? | 12:39 |
| marian__ | Axlin: it takes a very long time to install :( | 12:39 |
| foofoobar | I thought it's a shell command | 12:39 |
| Axlin | marian__: Yeah, kde-full includes a lot of stuff. | 12:39 |
| Pici | foofoobar: source is a shell builtin, what is rvm? | 12:40 |
| marian__ | I am too scared to stop the install, and run the other install command, so I guess I just have to wait | 12:40 |
| foofoobar | Pici, it's a ruby version system: https://rvm.io/ | 12:40 |
| Axlin | marian__: Unless you're low on HDD space, it really isn't going to hurt having full installed. | 12:41 |
| Axlin | I think the difference amounts to maybe a few hundred MBs | 12:41 |
| foofoobar | Pici, so how can "source" not be found? | 12:42 |
| Pici | dawkirst: it might be a socket or fifo, also the default $LS_COLORS can specify colors for specific patterns, so something else might be matching | 12:43 |
| Pici | foofoobar: when/where are you trying to run source? | 12:44 |
| foofoobar | Pici, in my shell | 12:44 |
| Pici | foofoobar: what does echo $SHELL say? | 12:44 |
| foofoobar | Pici, /bin/sh | 12:44 |
| foofoobar | ah.. I need to change this to /bin/bash ? | 12:45 |
| dawkirst | Pici, thanks | 12:45 |
| gebbione | got my samba service running but does not seem to work despite configuration being fine | 12:45 |

| MonkeyDust | foofoobar an identifier, binary shell, binary bourne again shell | 12:46 |

| lucky1 | Wireshark is one of these six programs.. very difficult programs.. LoL | 13:16 |
| lucky1 | anyone use Wireshark? | 13:16 |
| switch | im getting ready to install ubuntu on my machine should i be going for the latest 13 build or the 12lts | 13:16 |
| lucky1 | is Wireshark hard, is there a easier, better program besides UFW.. LoL | 13:16 |
| cfhowlett | switch, depends. do you need bleeding edge shiny stuff? 13.04 ... | 13:16 |
| SolarisBoy | lucky1: what makes Wireshark hard i guess is the question, there are alternate packet capture apps like tcpdump, tshark for the cli and probably other versions - but what makes it hard? | 13:17 |
| lucky1 | <switch> I haven't seen 13, but I like 12.04 because of the privacy settings.. 12.10 and probably 13 have backdoors that I don't want.. | 13:17 |
| switch | i dont NEED it but it would be nice if my understanding is correct 13 means id have to upgrade to the next version when it comes out to continue to recive support whereas 12 will be suported for a long time making it better for say buisnesses and school who dont have time to keep the machines on the altest version | 13:18 |
| switch | which if thats the case im happy to do that | 13:18 |
| MonkeyDust | switch 12.04 if you want long support, 13.04 if you want the latest stuff | 13:18 |
| lucky1 | 12.04 plays all my bleeding edge hardware (no graphics card though) including RAID for nothing more then my internet surfing.. ha ha ha!!! | 13:19 |
| switch | 13 it is then cause i tend to go through a nuke and pave every 6 monthes anyway | 13:19 |
| nrdb__ | I have a VM running ubuntu... but when starting it doesn't appear to run any of the scripts in /etc/rc2.d or /etc/rc.local .... can someone help me figure this out | 13:19 |
| switch | only thing im worried about is my gpu working which is a amd radeon hd 6870 but a quick google will tell me if that works | 13:19 |
| MonkeyDust | lucky1 in nautilus, go /usr/bin/ and copy the program you want to the desktop | 13:20 |
| adamk | switch: This is a desktop system? | 13:21 |
| switch | yes | 13:21 |
| MonkeyDust | lucky1 or ln -s to the desktop | 13:21 |
| adamk | switch: Then that GPU should work sufficiently well with the open source radeon driver, and will have even better 3D acceleration with the proprietary driver. | 13:21 |
| switch | sweet ill brb while i go get isos | 13:22 |
| amnesti | Hello :) | 13:23 |
| cfhowlett | amnesti, greetings | 13:23 |
| SliMM | Hi. Is there any easy way to create a Mac OS X-bootable USB stick version of Ubuntu with non-volatile storage? (pretty much an installation, but without using the installer, just from OS X) | 13:25 |
| switch | i just downloaded the iso in like 30 seconds O.O my internet scares me | 13:25 |
| nrdb__ | how can I disable apparmor it might be causing me some trouble? | 13:25 |
| panshul | MonkeyDust, I made a fresh installation of Ubuntu 13.04 release version... then installed Gnome 3.8 using the PPA from gnome website. Now my desktop on Gnome and in unity both are blank - white... with no right click functions... turning off the option to disable handling of desktop by file manager brings back my desktop in Gnome.. but not in unity.. more over no file manager operations possible still... what do i | 13:27 |
| panshul | do? | 13:27 |
| lucky1 | I went to /usr/bin just to simply find a way to move the unity programs to a folder on the desktop and I clicked a executable called Unity 2d shell and it wiped out all the programs off my sidebar... DAMN!!! | 13:28 |
| MonkeyDust | nrdb__ http://ubuntuguide.net/disable-apport-error-reporting-in-ubuntu-12-10 | 13:28 |
| durgesh | guys i want to use empathy to connnect to irc but it aint showing any otptions what shoud i do | 13:28 |
| nrdb__ | MonkeyDust, thanks | 13:28 |
| MonkeyDust | panshul gnome 3.8 is the culprit | 13:28 |
| MonkeyDust | panshul aa ppa is not supported, contact its maintainer | 13:29 |
| durgesh | guys i want to use empathy to connnect to irc but it aint showing any otptions what shoud i do???? | 13:29 |
| lucky1 | why is it everytime I want to do something simple, something easy, it always messes up ubuntu???? Always the simple stuff!! Things like trying to change the login screen background and moving an executable to a folder on desktop!!! WOW!! | 13:29 |
| panshul | MonkeyDust, thnx.. for pointing me in the right direction | 13:29 |
| MonkeyDust | lucky1 I did it in 2 seconds, no error or problem | 13:30 |
| As4xk | I already have some rules in my /etc/iptables.up.rules file. I just enables ufw, and allowed port 22. Then i reloaded ufw, but the rules that are defined in iptables.up.rules are still working. So my question is: Can i add rules to either the iptable.up.rules file OR ufw, and the rule will work either way? | 13:30 |
| nrdb__ | MonkeyDust, that was how to stop apport error reporting .... not how to apparmor | 13:30 |
| OerHeks | lucky1, that is why linux is safe. but you have been given solutions, though | 13:31 |
| SolarisBoy | nrdb__: which apparmor profile is causing the issue? or for which service? | 13:32 |
| MonkeyDust | lucky1 try ln -s /usr/bin/blahblah ~/Desktop/ | 13:32 |
| MonkeyDust | nrdb__ start here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor | 13:32 |
| SolarisBoy | nrdb__: sudo invoke-rc.d apparmor kill ; sudo update-rc.d -f apparmor remove if thats what you really want to do | 13:33 |
| crazydip | where is the dconf database file located? | 13:33 |
| durgesh | empathy needs help | 13:34 |
| lucky1 | yeah, getting solutions are hard for ubuntu.. | 13:34 |
| lucky1 | LoL! | 13:34 |
| MonkeyDust | lucky1 what's hard with ln -s /usr/bin/blahblah ~/Desktop/ ? | 13:35 |
| MonkeyDust | lucky1 you had your in answer in minutes | 13:35 |
| Chris_W_ | how can i tell what screen resolutions are available from the command line? | 13:36 |
| SolarisBoy | Chris_W_: xrandr | 13:36 |
| nrdb__ | MonkeyDust, I have 3 services that are refusing to start automatically on boot ... I even put the commands to start them in /etc/rc.local ... but they are not starting ... after boot if I execute /etc/rc.local ... they start as expected ... any ideas on what could cause this. | 13:36 |
| Chris_W_ | SolarisBoy: this in on server. x isnt installed | 13:37 |
| MonkeyDust | nrdb__ i guess SolarisBoy is more skilled on the matter | 13:37 |
| nrdb__ | MonkeyDust, ok | 13:37 |
| crazydip | nm found it: ~/.config/dconf/user | 13:37 |
| nrdb__ | SolarisBoy, I have 3 services that are refusing to start automatically on boot ... I even put the commands to start them in /etc/rc.local ... but they are not starting ... after boot if I execute /etc/rc.local ... they start as expected ... any ideas on what could cause this. | 13:37 |
| SolarisBoy | MonkeyDust: i think your suggestion was fine imho - it's a good idea to read the ubuntu page for apparmor | 13:37 |
| SolarisBoy | nrdb__: what 3 services? are they custom? are they erroring? do they have logs? | 13:37 |
| nrdb__ | SolarisBoy, ssh bind9 isc-dhcp-server | 13:38 |
| SolarisBoy | nrdb__: edit actually i read some on that page and for versions of ubuntu like 12.04 + it seems you can add a line in grub.cfg to prevent apparmor startup - so see which works best for you | 13:38 |
| betrayd | Chris_W_: no gui required on server version | 13:39 |
| Chris_W_ | betrayd: wut? | 13:39 |
| SolarisBoy | Chris_W_: its not in the x11 server package actually it's in the server-utils packag | 13:39 |
| SolarisBoy | nrdb__: interesting - how have you configured them to start? afaik ubuntu takes care of ssh startup can't confirm bind9/isc-dhcp - | 13:40 |
| nrdb__ | SolarisBoy, if apparmor was the problem. wouldn't it stop these executing at any time? | 13:40 |
| SolarisBoy | nrdb__: was it just an install or did you manually link the startup? are you sure they haven't been swapped to upstart etc etc? | 13:40 |
| SolarisBoy | nrdb__: if that were the case it would be logged | 13:41 |
| SolarisBoy | nrdb__: so did you check the logs? | 13:41 |
| GunArm | I've been having all kinds of problems as every drive in my raid array has been failling since february and I'm trying to best to stay one step ahead. currently i'm getting these errors periodically on my console (and dmesg) http://pastie.org/7822399 how can I identify which drive these dmesg errors are referring to? is ata9.00 an identifier? how can I cross reference it with /dev/sdx or something? | 13:41 |
| nrdb__ | I have looked in syslog but didn't notice anything very unusal | 13:41 |
| lucky1 | everybody was right.. what sucks about my problems is there's always something to it that makes it looks simple but it's never is.. I was looking for WIRESHARK under the /usr/bin place and the executable for wireshark just wasn't there, just a piece of paper icon that Ubuntu won't open and no application on the internet will find | 13:41 |
| SolarisBoy | nrdb__: you can also quickly place the service profiles into disabled state and try to bounce those services to confirm - | 13:41 |
| lucky1 | does anyone know where the wireshark executable is? | 13:42 |
| SolarisBoy | nrdb__: you'll need to use app armord commands to tell afaik | 13:42 |
| Chris_W_ | xrander: cant open display | 13:42 |
| lucky1 | maybe they put it somewhere else for security??? | 13:42 |
| SolarisBoy | Chris_W_: DISPLAY=:0 xrandr | 13:42 |
| GunArm | lucky1: if you open synaptic and find the package that wireshark is installed through, you can right click it and do properties, and there is a tab for "installed files" or something | 13:42 |
| GunArm | you might be able to find it in that list | 13:43 |
| jrib | lucky1: run « type wireshark » | 13:43 |
| betrayd | lucky1 go into synaptic and wireshark properties to list where files have been installed | 13:43 |
| nrdb__ | SolarisBoy, 'bounce those services' ??? | 13:43 |
| SolarisBoy | whereis wireshark or which wireshark | 13:43 |
| SolarisBoy | nrdb__: disable the profile and restart them. | 13:43 |
| michealPW | Is there any alternative to whatever handles the backlight dimming on Ubuntu 12.04? I think it's gnome-power-management. | 13:43 |
| SolarisBoy | nrdb__: use this to tell if they were disabled or such 'sudo apparmor_status' | 13:43 |
| michealPW | It's completely asinine. Sometimes when I'm idle it actually brightens my screen... Other times it does nothing at all. Last night after spending all day at College and the stupid thing not dimming the backlight when idle, I get home and start watching some videos online (Via Flash) and it starts dimming/locking the screen! | 13:44 |
| Chris_W_ | SolarisBoy: Cant open display 0. or 1. or 2. | 13:44 |
| amanthakur | Hi guys, | 13:44 |
| SolarisBoy | Chris_W_: it may be :0.0 or so forth you'll have to do some investigation into how your monitors are connected and what they are connected to | 13:45 |
| SolarisBoy | (and if they are if not this excercise is pointless) | 13:45 |

| Chris_W_ | adamk: i guess because my time using linux could be counted in days on one hand | 13:52 |
| michealPW | It honestly reminds me of when I used to use the program "Caffeine" to inhibit the screensaver... Only, obviously, I'm not running that (rofl) | 13:52 |

| nrdb__ | SolarisBoy, I thought I had disabled apparmor ... but maybe not. | 13:54 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: when i said i was using ubuntu server when i started asking this question, doesn't that imply that it's headless? | 13:54 |
| moppers | GunArm, it should be possible to automate that with waking up | 13:55 |
| michealPW | Gah, yes I'm thinking the solution is to somehow completely disable whatever it is handling this screen dimming / blanking and replace it with something else :\ | 13:55 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: I do not know how to get a list of all supported resolutions from just console utilities. You can try choosing a different console resolution by passing 'video=XRESxYRES' to the kernel... For example, 'video=1024x768' | 13:55 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: Implications are never as good as actual statements... | 13:55 |
| nrdb__ | SolarisBoy, what log details would you like? | 13:55 |
| GunArm | moppers: I tried asking people about that and couldn't find any answers, theres no bashrc or cron entry for waking from sleep | 13:55 |
| mchlbhm | Hey, just ran a game via wine and my resolution is messed up. How would I fix it? | 13:56 |
| GunArm | that I could find | 13:56 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: If the machine is headless, then... Well... There is no monitor attached to query for supported resolutions. | 13:56 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: So the question doesn't make sense in that case. | 13:56 |
| michealPW | Since the actual function of dimming the led backlights with acpi works fine.. From a terminal or whatever it works, also with Fn+F5 it works.. It's the broken GUI that should be calling these methods that is broken. Gnome, no doubt. | 13:56 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: just type video=blahXblah at the terminal | 13:56 |
| Chris_W_ | ? | 13:56 |
| michealPW | Same stupid issue I used to have with gnome-screensaver.. Had to replace it with xscreensaver LOL. | 13:56 |
| michealPW | Not sure why the GNOME guys and girls insist on re-inventing the wheel at every single turn. In 2013 we're still struggling with power management issues most operating systems have hashed out back in the 1990s. | 13:57 |
| GunArm | moppers: don't go doing research for me though I'm not even at home with the laptop | 13:57 |
| === Addihockey is now known as Guest9712 | ||
| adamk | Chris_W_: Edit your grub kernel line to pass video=XRESxYRES to the kernel. But given that this machine is headless, I don't know that it's going to do a single thing. | 13:57 |
| michealPW | As an Ubuntu user in a class full of 60 programmers, it's EMBERASSING... | 13:57 |
| michealPW | Very much so. | 13:57 |
| === BTCOxygen|1 is now known as BTCOxygen | ||
| GunArm | michealPW: well part of that isn't ubuntus fault, its because (I think) those features are made with windows in mind | 13:57 |

| michealPW | But how come these ancient programs, like xscreensaver have none of these problems? Ubuntu uses these buggy and half-cooked GNOME utilities like gnome-screensaver that can't even run screensavers anymore.. It just blanks the screen.. IF it blanks the screen. | 13:58 |
| michealPW | Half the time it doesn't, haha... | 13:58 |
| michealPW | You stop it from running.. Install xscreensavers and BAM! You've got a full range of screensavers to choose from again.. It actually WORKS... | 13:59 |
| moppers | GunArm, debian has pm-suspend, that will write to /var/log/pm-supsend.log (I think) when the system resumes | 13:59 |
| michealPW | And there's a plethora of settings to customize. Amazing. Why was it ever replaced? :\ | 13:59 |
| gordonjcp | michealPW: does anyone actually use screensavers any more? | 13:59 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: The way the kernel DRM modules (video drivers built into the kernel) work these days is that they query the attached monitor for all supported resolutions, including the best one, which they will then switch to by default. If the machine is headless, there's no monitor to query... Frankly, I'm confused about what you are trying to do in the first place. | 13:59 |
| michealPW | moppers, Yea, that's exactly right. I've been trying to find any sign of trouble in pm-suspend and pm-powermanage but no luck :( | 14:00 |
| michealPW | Also syslog and the gang. | 14:00 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: i thought 'headless" meant without a gui | 14:00 |
| nrdb__ | michealPW, when using a LCD screen the first thing I do is disable the screensaver. | 14:00 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: No, headless means without a monitor. | 14:00 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: if "headless" means without a monitor, then i was confused | 14:00 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: sorry about that | 14:00 |
| michealPW | gordonjcp, Sure. Nobody ever agrees on everything. | 14:00 |
| ran_ | someone here have a delay with the boot in xubuntu? | 14:00 |
| gordonjcp | michealPW: what are screensavers for? | 14:00 |
| moppers | michealPW, ubuntu is not known for stability .. it's a "cutting edge" distro in my opinion | 14:01 |
| nrdb__ | michealPW, they aren't needed | 14:01 |
| michealPW | nrdb__, Right, many probably do as well... But does it really make sense to rip the feature out entirely, when your problem was solved by simply disabling it? | 14:01 |
| gordonjcp | michealPW: o_O | 14:01 |
| gordonjcp | moppers: o_O not stable, y'say? | 14:01 |
| michealPW | moppers: I'm using 12.04 LTS, though... LOL! | 14:01 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: well, for some reason the kernel is getting a screen resolution that is putting all the text into a square about 1/4 of the monitor. | 14:01 |
| moppers | i use screensaver ... it looks pretty | 14:01 |
| michealPW | I use blanking more than screensavers, however you guys lost my point :P | 14:02 |
| gordonjcp | I use the power button on my monitor... | 14:02 |
| nrdb__ | michealPW, it isn't a feature, it is hack to stop CRT screens from burning an image in. | 14:02 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: What's the output of 'cat /proc/fb' ? | 14:02 |
| michealPW | My point wasn't that gnome-screensavers doesn't even support screensavers... It's that it's a broken, half-cooked utility that pales in comparison to what it replaced (xscreensavers) and that, to me, makes no sense. | 14:02 |
| shaunlewis | michealPW: have you tried looking to see if the problem is resolved in the latest version? Live CD perhaps? | 14:02 |
| betrayd | michealPW: yours is doing the opposite, when you try to use the lappy it dims | 14:02 |
| moppers | what's a power button? should atomaticlaly turn on when you whack the keyboard or wiggle mouse, and go off when you leave it | 14:02 |
| ran_ | someone here have a delay with the boot in xubuntu or ubuntu since upgrading to 13.04? | 14:02 |
| GunArm | michealPW: not sure about that, but I just try to keep in mind that linux is originally unix made for security and power on a mainframe/server to do heavy processing and IO and manage multiple users and stuff. all the support for desktops is added on much later (albeit an afterthought with tons of developers). it works pretty well for the most part, but that's not it's strongest area. and thats even more true on laptops. but things like | 14:03 |
| moppers | power button is just for when it locks up | 14:03 |
| michealPW | shaunlewis: It's massively worse. None of the power management is reliable in 13.04 or 12.10 for me :( | 14:03 |
| moppers | 13.04 has better PM than 12.04 for sure | 14:03 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: 0 inteldrmfb | 14:03 |
| gordonjcp | GunArm: Unix was always a desktop OS | 14:03 |
| moppers | i get longer batteyr life on this laptop in raring than precise | 14:03 |
| gordonjcp | GunArm: the desktops it runs on got smaller and smaller | 14:04 |
| moppers | have you tried (it hink jupiter) for battery life? | 14:04 |
| michealPW | betrayd: Yea. It's like it's a timer issue.. Like the utility is not properly counting down the 5 minutes or it's never properly detecting that the system is idle. The screen can blank and backlight can dim, in terms of capabilities.. | 14:04 |
| michealPW | I can do it from a terminal reliably, but it almost never does it on it's own when idle | 14:04 |
| michealPW | moppers: I read about Jupiter somewhere. Mmm, maybe I'll try and install it | 14:05 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: Well if the console resolution doesn't actually match the monitors resoluiton, you've hit a bug in either the console code or the intel DRM driver. But, as I said, you can try forcing a resolution by passing the video= option to the kernel. | 14:05 |
| shaunlewis | michealPW: Which laptop is it? | 14:05 |
| betrayd | but Chris_W_ is there a reason why you're attaching a screen to your server | 14:06 |
| memand | Hey guys, I'm trying to set up an OpenVPN server on Ubuntu 12.04 server, I have been following this https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/OpenVPN guide and created the PKI with these https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Create_a_Public_Key_Infrastructure_Using_the_easy-rsa_Scripts scripts, this http://pastie.org/7822581 is my /etc/openvpn/server.conf when I do "openvpn /etc/openvpn/server.conf" I get this | 14:06 |
| memand | http://pastie.org/7822588 output... I'm not sure why it's not sure why it's not finding the TUN/TAP or what else could be wrong... | 14:06 |
| michealPW | shaunlewis, ASUS K75DE. | 14:06 |
| Chris_W_ | betrayd: i guess its just easier for me | 14:06 |
| betrayd | Chris_W_: ok, thought there was another issue | 14:07 |
| ran_ | 13.04 is buggy on boot and shutdown? | 14:07 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: thats what brought me here. how do i tell what resolutions are available so that i can try forcing one? | 14:07 |
| michealPW | Yea, me too ^ | 14:07 |
| michealPW | That's why I had to go back to 12.04... 13.04 with the AMD fglrx drivers (Tried them all) would not shutdown and would kernel panic when booting *most* of the time. | 14:08 |
| michealPW | Sometimes it would work fine.. Only when I'm in class trying to show my friends how awesome Ubuntu is.. | 14:08 |
| michealPW | God (facepalm) | 14:08 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: Again, I don't know of any console-only utility to list all supported resolutions. Theoretically you could google information for your monitor, or just select a commonly supported resolution such as 1024x768. | 14:08 |
| michealPW | Which is probably fglrx, they have issues. It's a shame. They seem to work fine (fglrx-experimental12) on this 12.04.2 though. Everything's rock solid. | 14:09 |
| === ubuntu is now known as Guest95165 | ||
| betrayd | or open the manual to your screen | 14:09 |
| betrayd | blasphemy ikr | 14:09 |
| michealPW | adamk: I think, you would use xrandr and there's a tool, uhh | 14:09 |
| michealPW | gtf? Something about timing formula | 14:10 |
| michealPW | I can't remember, sorry LOL | 14:10 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: ok. and thanks, i appreciate all your help. | 14:10 |
| michealPW | Been so long since I did it manually... aticonfig --initial for the win :D | 14:10 |
| ran_ | there is a problem with nvidia about boot or shutdown in 13.04? | 14:10 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: im slowly learning this stuff, but it was cool of you to take the time and explain it. | 14:10 |
| nrdb__ | memand, do you have a /dev/net/tun | 14:11 |
| michealPW | Installing jupiter, btw. | 14:11 |
| michealPW | Well updating repos hehe but yet | 14:11 |
| adamk | michealPW: Except that xrandr is for X... Chris_W_ isn't using X. gtf is for creating X modelines, but does not query the monitor for supported resolutions. | 14:12 |
| memand | nrdb__: Not as far as I can see, but I don't know how I'd create it | 14:13 |
| michealPW | GunArm: Btw, I used synclient to get this touchpad really, really nice. It's even more intuitive now than it is on Win7 hehe. Once I figured out the concept (synclient -m to monitor, do some palm tests while you're typing to list out all the thresholds of your palms/fingers and then set them your x config) | 14:13 |
| michealPW | It's beautiful now, hehe. Took awhile to get it just right, but the result is brilliant | 14:13 |
| ran_ | in 13.04 there are more kernel panics then 12.10? because lately i see more of them in boot. | 14:13 |
| memand | nrdb__: It looks like I don't even have /dev/net | 14:14 |
| michealPW | ran_: Have you tried experimenting with different versions of the nvidia drivers? | 14:14 |
| michealPW | adamk: Ah, I see. Can you not query the EDID information from a terminal? | 14:14 |
| michealPW | I'm not sure. It shows up in my logs, I'm not sure what's probing for it though. | 14:15 |
| adamk | michealPW: As I said, I don't know of any console utility for that :-) | 14:15 |
| michealPW | hehe, touche! | 14:15 |
| shmoon | why do people write *NIX ? | 14:16 |
| michealPW | shmoon: 'cause it's shorter than "UNIX-like operating systems" ? | 14:16 |
| michealPW | hehe | 14:16 |
| jern | michealPW: Well played | 14:17 |
| michealPW | Although "*NIX" is kind of ambigious, if we were to nit-pick :D | 14:17 |
| shmoon | oh it means unix like operating systems ? ok didnt know, i thought they just refer to unix | 14:17 |
| betrayd | covers UNIX and LINUX but leaves out the nerds from BSD | 14:17 |
| BluesKaj | heh , it's still the same number of keystrokes ...just trying to look cool , that's all | 14:17 |
| SolarisBoy | betrayd: yeps | 14:17 |
| michealPW | shmoon: Weeeell, "UNIX" refers to commercially-licensed distributions of the UNIX code base... Linux, is *not* a UNIX. It's UNIX-like... | 14:17 |
| shmoon | so it covers mac too | 14:17 |
| BluesKaj | shmoon, yeah \ | 14:18 |
| SolarisBoy | but a lot of people say *nix to reference the "other" os's | 14:18 |
| jern | shmoon: I didn't think so.... | 14:18 |
| SolarisBoy | although michealPW is absolutely correct | 14:18 |
| michealPW | In that, it shares absolutely no code with those Commercially-licensed UNIX os'.. However it's inspired by the way UNIX was designed and it's compatible.. So, it's UNIX-like (However, it's certianly *not* UNIX.) | 14:18 |
| michealPW | :P | 14:18 |
| SolarisBoy | +1 | 14:18 |
| betrayd | It's a wannabee | 14:18 |
| shmoon | there are "commercially" licensed unix OS ? | 14:18 |
| ran_ | i need some information about boot problems (or shutdown) in 13.04. | 14:18 |
| shmoon | i mean stuff for which you have to pay to use ? | 14:18 |
| Muelli | shmoon: many | 14:18 |
| SolarisBoy | schoppenhauer: most unix's are commercially license | 14:18 |
| shmoon | wow | 14:19 |
| michealPW | shmoon: Yea, sure. Well Mac is not "UNIX-like", believe it or not it's actually UNIX.. Well partially. Mostly it's using licensed BSD code base. | 14:19 |
| SolarisBoy | hp-ux solaris aix etc etc | 14:19 |
| michealPW | shmoon: Yea. Not only copyright-protected by also heavily patent-protected, as far as I know (I'm no lawyer, though..) | 14:19 |
| svenn | quit | 14:19 |
| SolarisBoy | and very expensive at that too. | 14:19 |
| shmoon | SolarisBoy: wait so i have to pay t use solaris ? | 14:19 |
| michealPW | haha yea | 14:19 |
| michealPW | Linux > UNIX (In my opinion) | 14:19 |
| michealPW | :P | 14:19 |
| Muelli | shmoon: yes. | 14:19 |
| shmoon | gee i didnt know | 14:19 |
| SolarisBoy | shmoon: yes you can download it - but to use it licensed and the cooler features you do pay | 14:19 |
| gucciburr | so what should i get | 14:20 |
| gucciburr | 12.04 lts or 13.04? | 14:20 |
| gucciburr | how outdated is 12.04? | 14:20 |
| SolarisBoy | a lot of people running and spending a lot of money on unixes are in corporate IT running data warehouses that require tons of processing power and memory management etc | 14:21 |
| LucidGuy | Looking to purchase a new ultrabook.. recommendations for well supported model/manufacturers? | 14:21 |
| SolarisBoy | gucciburr: 12.04 is LTS it's not outdated | 14:21 |
| === Zapata is now known as Guest8024 | ||
| shmoon | michealPW: but then do the commercial licensed also come under "*nix" ? | 14:22 |
| gucciburr | SolarisBoy: so what are the advantages of 13.04 then if 12.04 is up to date | 14:22 |
| gucciburr | i dont get the ubuntu releases | 14:22 |
| SolarisBoy | gucciburr: bleeding edge | 14:22 |
| michealPW | LucidGuy: I guess that's a loaded question hehe. I like AMD systems, but your mileage will probably very :P | 14:22 |
| SolarisBoy | if your into that type of stuff | 14:22 |
| michealPW | I find the AMD parts are well supported on Linux. | 14:22 |
| michealPW | shmoon: What do you mean? Oh yea, that's why that term's ambigious (Confusing, misleading..) as it can refer to a very wide range of operating systems that are technically and practically completely different things. | 14:23 |
| shmoon | michealPW: like when someone says *nix would that include the commercially licensedunix's too like solaris ? | 14:24 |
| michealPW | For example.. Linux is not HP-UX, which is not FreeBSD, which is not Solaris, which certainly is not z/OS. They all fall under the ambiguous term "*NIX", though :P | 14:24 |
| SolarisBoy | right | 14:24 |
| === francisco is now known as Guest49017 | ||
| sigv | gucciburr: LTS means Long Term Support. that one is intended for users that do not want the newest stuff but instead want tested stability. the other releases (current newest being 13.04) are stable but because they use newer there might be some bugs. | 14:25 |
| shmoon | i read on wikipedia that bsd is also unix-like, but never saw anyone mention it with *nix | 14:25 |
| shmoon | people mostly mention mac and linux | 14:25 |
| michealPW | That's why uptight geeks like me refer to is as "UNIX-like" (Linux) and UNIX(tm) (z/OS, Solaris etc.) | 14:25 |
| michealPW | :P | 14:25 |
| SolarisBoy | BSD unix | 14:25 |
| michealPW | Also Gnu/Linux works better than UNIX-like :P | 14:25 |
| SolarisBoy | hmm.... | 14:25 |
| SolarisBoy | thats a big statement sonny. | 14:25 |
| betrayd | he's one a them | 14:25 |
| SolarisBoy | lol | 14:25 |
| michealPW | LOL | 14:25 |
| compdoc | I use amd to build system running linux. But I dont use linux and amd graphic cards for gaming | 14:25 |

| xtacie | I was given a few HP DL380 Gen3's and I want to put ubunut on it but was wondering what version would be best for it. 2x 2.8ghz (32bit) xeons, 6gb ddr, 2x 73gb 15k scsi. any ideas???? | 14:26 |
| michealPW | compdoc: This AMD system does it all.. Dual boot win7 for gaming :P | 14:26 |
| SolarisBoy | xtacie: 12.04 LTS (imho) | 14:26 |
| michealPW | Dual Radeon 7000-series GPUs and a quad-core opteron (muscle) | 14:26 |
| SolarisBoy | especially if your bout to do something prod like which it sounds like | 14:26 |

| xtacie | not looking for a gui | 14:30 |
| michealPW | Wouldn't the open source "ati" drivers work for that, I wonder? Hrmm | 14:30 |
| adamk | xtacie: What's the exact error messages? | 14:30 |
| xtacie | blank screen: unsupported video mode | 14:30 |
| SolarisBoy | maybe nomodeset in your grub | 14:30 |
| michealPW | Oh, video *mode* | 14:31 |
| troma | i take conntact later... ok? | 14:31 |
| adamk | xtacie: When booting, try passing 'vga=normal' to the kernel. | 14:31 |
| SolarisBoy | *maybe you can put the nomodeset in your grub.cfg - have you tried that xtacie ? | 14:31 |
| xtacie | SolarisBoy: yup. i spent about 11 hours yesterday scouring the web for answers | 14:32 |

| michealPW | Interesting that Ubuntu Server would not default to turning off kernel modesetting? | 14:33 |
| michealPW | Well I guess it would be really nice to have in a terminal, though.. | 14:33 |
| xtacie | I havent played with the adminstration end of the system since college and have a bunch of cpanel reseller accounts i want to consolidate on one sever.. so for starters i purchased a linode account and rolled out ubuntu 12.04 and fell in love with it | 14:34 |

| michealPW | Whoa! My screen blanked and locked perfectly fine while I went and got a coffee! :\ | 14:37 |
| michealPW | Grr.. This is so difficult to figure out. How can it work so well sometimes but not others? :( | 14:38 |

| zapata2 | Hi! Can someone pleas help me change repository for ubuntu 9.10 to a working one? what do I enter in the APT line? | 14:40 |
| moppers | wow, ebay electromics actually was as described and operational...? | 14:40 |
| nrdb__ | xtacie, hope it works for you. | 14:41 |

| memand | nrdb__: After following this http://wiki.vpslink.com/TUN/TAP_device_with_OpenVPN_or_Hamachi guide that was the output it gave me, but to be honest I don't even know what a TUN device is | 14:42 |
| varikonniemi | so why does ubuntu nowadays mount locations one initiates via nautilus in /media/username/ and those that are automatically mounted go in /media ?? | 14:42 |
| shmoon | what does -O- option to wget do ? seems like it writes to stdout but I dont understand the convention/logic | 14:42 |
| varikonniemi | i lost all my torrents when i made ubuntu automount my raid partition since its location changed | 14:42 |
| nrdb__ | memand, do a "ifconfig" and see if it is there... a tun device is a form of fake ethernet card. | 14:43 |
| shmoon | `-` for stdout ? | 14:43 |
| Muelli | shmoon: yes | 14:43 |
| moppers | varikonniemi, nautilus mounts with FUSE, not the kernel mount | 14:43 |
| shmoon | strange is that some linux/bash convention or just a wget thing ? multi_io | 14:43 |
| shmoon | *Muelli: | 14:43 |
| Muelli | shmoon: many programs use "-" as stdin or stdout. i.e. tar. | 14:44 |
| Muelli | shmoon: it's not a bash thing. | 14:44 |
| shmoon | yea i am familiar with the stdin, didnt know about stdout cool thanks | 14:44 |
| memand | nrdb__: Yeah it's there :) | 14:44 |
| shmoon | so basically its program specific, if they see its `-` they use to either accept input from stdin or spit output to stdout | 14:44 |
| zapata2 | I need 9.10. this website says there is a repository for old releases. http://askubuntu.com/questions/92285/are-there-still-9-10-software-sources-available how do i make it run? | 14:44 |
| SolarisBoy | theres stderr to be fair too | 14:44 |
| nrdb__ | memand, :-) now to get the client to connect. | 14:44 |
| Muelli | shmoon: yes | 14:44 |
| moppers | varikonniemi, becuase fuse is user space, it mounts under the users name, not the system | 14:45 |
| schoppenhauer | SolarisBoy: Most Unices? The only really commercially licensed Unix that is still maintained is Solaris, at least to my knowledge. | 14:45 |
| schoppenhauer | SolarisBoy: (why did you highlight me btw?) | 14:45 |
| shmoon | thanks Muelli | 14:45 |
| xtacie | :( ive missed irc. seems like when you goto school for it you have tons of time to play and experiment.. then you try to create a small army of uber baby geniuses, get a job doing what you love.. but ends up being boooring.. dont know where i was going with that.. gotta love irc | 14:45 |
| varikonniemi | moppers, makes sense | 14:45 |
| memand | nrdb__: Exactly :) | 14:45 |
| nrdb__ | memand, how are the clients going to find your server... do you have a static public IP ? | 14:45 |
| Chris_W_ | ok, i have the monitor saying it is currently using 1600x900 resolution, i have added GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="video=VGA:1600x900" to /etc/defaults/grub but the monitor is still only using 3/5 of the screen | 14:46 |
| schoppenhauer | SolarisBoy: FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD ... free licenses. | 14:46 |
| schoppenhauer | SolarisBoy: Ok, L4.verified has a commercial license, but is - unfortunately - not really used. | 14:46 |
| schoppenhauer | SolarisBoy: Minix has a free license. | 14:46 |
| michealPW | schoppenhauer: Isn't IBM's z/OS UNIX? | 14:46 |
| Muelli | well. for some degrees of free. | 14:47 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: First, it should be video=1600x900. You can use 'fbset' to see what resolution it says is being used. | 14:47 |
| michealPW | Also HP's UNIX. What do they call it? HP-AUX? Something like that, anyways :P | 14:47 |
| schoppenhauer | michealPW: dunno. Mac OS/X is, HP-UX is | 14:47 |
| nrdb__ | memand, you will probably need to setup a 'port forward' on your Internet router. | 14:47 |
| moppers | mac os/x isnt a unix relaly, it sits on top of free bsd but it's macosX | 14:47 |
| shadej | can any body tell if it is possible to create an adhoc network between my pc and my android phone? | 14:48 |
| schoppenhauer | michealPW: Interix and Cygwin, if you want to count them, are, too, commercially licensed. | 14:48 |
| cfhowlett | shadej, to do what? | 14:48 |
| adamk | OS X does not sit on top of FreeBSD. It does use some of the FreeBSD userland. | 14:48 |
| schoppenhauer | moppers: a matter of the precise definition. | 14:48 |
| memand | nrdb__: It's a server that me and some friends are renting | 14:48 |
| === BadLarry_ is now known as BadLarry | ||
| schoppenhauer | adamk: afaik they have a microkernel which has FreeBSD-Parts and proprietary parts | 14:48 |
| lotuspsychje | cfhowlett: you running ubuntu touch on your nexus 4? | 14:49 |
| shadej | cfhowlett: just connect only | 14:49 |
| adamk | And OS X is actually UNIX certified so, yes, it is a unix. | 14:49 |
| moppers | schoppenhauer, apple once advertised mac os as having unix components (ithin they said: "Unix stability"?) and the lawyers made them stop | 14:49 |
| nrdb__ | memand, ok ... so no problem there. | 14:49 |
| moppers | *ithin = i think | 14:49 |
| varikonniemi | moppers, however this behavior was new in 12.10 | 14:49 |
| shadej | cfhowlett: my android phone is not detecting the adhoc network i created | 14:49 |
| nrdb__ | memand, how much is it costing you? if you don't mind me asking | 14:49 |
| varikonniemi | 12.04 had both in /media | 14:49 |
| schoppenhauer | whatever, anyway, I would not say that "most of the unices are commercial" | 14:49 |
| schoppenhauer | there are commercial ones, there are free ones | 14:50 |
| xtacie | OS X is based upon the Mach kernel. Certain parts from FreeBSD's and NetBSD's implementation of Unix were incorporated in NeXTSTEP, the core of Mac OS X. | 14:50 |
| cfhowlett | shadej, see airdroid app | 14:50 |
| schoppenhauer | and there are a lot of free unix-like ones | 14:50 |
| moppers | schoppenhauer, hrm, i see they have started again, their new website says unix stability again | 14:50 |
| schoppenhauer | Haiku for example | 14:50 |
| cfhowlett | lotuspsychje, yeah, just got a nexus 4 in beiijing. harder than you might think | 14:50 |
| zapata2 | ubottu, thank you | 14:50 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 14:50 |
| paddymahoney | nautilus sucks at working with gvfs sftp mounts in 13.04 | 14:50 |
| cfhowlett | lotuspsychje, correction NOT running touch, just stock android 4.2.2 | 14:50 |
| schoppenhauer | btw, now that I went in here ... what has become of GNU/Solaris? The last thing I remember from a few years ago is that they moved to Ubuntu instead of Debian. | 14:51 |

| lotuspsychje | cfhowlett: i hear its not yet running all features smooth | 14:53 |

| odigity2 | Never used RAID before, would like setup Software RAID (mdadm) to mirror raid my system drive (/ partition), but I'm confused by the concept. The RAID service gets run just like any other during boot, but aren't the conf files for running the RAID service on the RAID partition itself? Isn't that a paradox? | 15:54 |

| theadmin | odigity2: How does Linux mount / if the directives for mounting it are in /etc/fstab, which is on /? Paradox too, the same kind :P | 15:56 |
| Narwhaal | IdleOne, what did I say ? | 15:56 |
| odigity2 | bekks, so the computer boots, the linux kernel boots, it mounts the / partition off of one of the mirrored drives, then eventually mdadm gets started which starts mirroring changes to the other drive? | 15:56 |
| odigity2 | theadmin, that has also confused me :) | 15:56 |
| Narwhaal | theadmin, it's stable, I tested it on a Ubuntu server | 15:56 |
| odigity2 | theadmin, I've been a linux user for a long time, but not much of a sysadmin -- kept things simple, now trying to stretch myself | 15:57 |
| Pici | Narwhaal: I think IdleOne confused your use of 'git' | 15:57 |
| Narwhaal | okay, the Git compiles good :) | 15:57 |
| Narwhaal | Pici, I think so | 15:57 |
| theadmin | odigity2: (well, I can explain how that works, the kernel gets passed a root=/dev/sda1 or such directive, that gets mounted read-only and after fstab is scanned it's re-mounted appropriately, but yeah) | 15:57 |
| Narwhaal | IdleOne, Git == the SCM | 15:57 |
| bekks | odigity2: Nope. The kernel boots, loads the raid drivers from the initrd, loads the RAID config from the initrd, then mounts the / from the RAID. | 15:57 |
| odigity2 | bekks, didn't know about initrd, reading now: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initrd | 15:58 |
| odigity2 | bekks, how does one configure the kernel to know to do that? | 15:58 |
| SonikkuAmerica | I hear today is the last day for 10.04 Lucid Lynx and 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot. Ring of truth? | 15:58 |

| theadmin | SonikkuAmerica: Indeed. | 15:59 |
| theadmin | Anniepoo: Yes. | 15:59 |
| bekks | odigity2: The stock Ubuntu kernel uses a initrd - and while installing a (new) kernel from the repos, it (the initrd) is created | 15:59 |
| odigity2 | I tried installing Ubuntu Desktop 13.04 while setting up mirror RAID for the system drive during the install. tried two different online tutorials, both failed. trying to learn more about the underlying pieces now to figure out what's going on | 15:59 |

| lotuspsychje | odigity2: you can try also ##hardware too solve your good raid array | 16:00 |
| odigity2 | two more questions, then: 1) is it a bad idea to have /boot on the raided partition, and 2) is it better to try setting up the mirror RAID during a fresh install or after the fact? | 16:00 |
| SonikkuAmerica | samijam: The Web IS faster than POP or IMAP you know, | 16:00 |
| odigity2 | lotuspsychje, would prefer not to spend the money on a raid card, plus there's a lot of arguments for why soft raid is better. want to learn the linux way of doing it | 16:01 |
| bekks | odigity2: Using RAID1, it is a good idea to move /boot onto it. | 16:01 |
| SonikkuAmerica | samijam: Aaaaaand you probably messed with dconf | 16:01 |

| odigity2 | lotuspsychje, thanks for the tip, though I did skim two of those links early on in the process. should probably revisit them now with more context | 16:01 |
| samijam | SonikkuAmerica, I don't know why POP or IMAP would be related to facebook messages in ubuntu notifications. Also, what could I have changed in dconf to make it repeat this randomly? | 16:02 |

| SonikkuAmerica | samijam: You can mess with the notifications from the Friends app using dconf-editor | 16:03 |
| samijam | SonikkuAmerica, maybe turn off facebook in the online accounts? I don't think I have much need for it anyway | 16:03 |
| lotuspsychje | odigity2: alot of raid tutorials out there for ubuntu ; ) | 16:03 |
| odigity2 | so, can I just create one partition on /dev/sda taking up all the space, install ubuntu into it, then RAID it with /dev/sdb after the install is complete? | 16:03 |
| Anniepoo | well, we're in the situation where thousands of students install swi-prolog from a package, it screws up the installation | 16:03 |
| odigity2 | lotuspsychje, I've already tried two and failed. | 16:03 |
| Anniepoo | and we're having no luck getting you all to update the thing | 16:03 |

| Quest | I have a dsl modem (192.168.1.1) -> server for QoS and monitoring (192.168.77.10) -> clients (192.168.77.1-255) . Now in the clients ip configs, I have to add 192.168.77.10 as gateway and 192.168.1.1 as DNS . I want the clients to make 77.10 as the DNS and not 1.1 as then clients would be independant and see only the server. I can change the dsl of 1.1 and say plug in the 2.1 and the client wont have to change their ip config. how it can be done | 16:19 |
| Quest | as right now I cant just use 77.10 as a DNS in clients. why? | 16:19 |
| Quest | do I need a DNS software ? if yes. which one? | 16:19 |
| BaldFat | Quest: Why are you making your own DNS server? Why not use your router? | 16:20 |
| Quest | BaldFat, theres a server in between. | 16:21 |
| Quest | what i want is how hard is to configure bind on ubuntu. for the 77.10 server to pass on client requests to 1.1 ? then i can just put 77.10 for dns and gatway in clients config | 16:21 |
| Quest | BaldFat, i only need the clents to have gateway and dns as 77.10 (server ip) and the clients should not worry about the ip of the dsl modem. | 16:22 |
| BaldFat | Quest: Your biting off a ton for no gained utility. Don't do a bind server to just point to 1.1 For instance You can plug in 208.67.222.222. 208.67.220.220 for Opendns server to just have it go where you want. | 16:22 |
| BaldFat | Quest: The only reason to do what you are doing is to gain the ability to name every machine and not just use a static IP. | 16:23 |
| Quest | BaldFat, what do you mean. whats 208.67... | 16:23 |
| BaldFat | Those are the IP address to DNS at opendns and Google's DNS is 8.8.8.8 | 16:24 |
| Quest | BaldFat, 77.10 has just traffic monitoring tools . i have shared its eth1 and eth0 with each other. eth1 is Wan. eth0 is Lan | 16:24 |
| BaldFat | I would just point to your router and than at your router you can use whatever external DNS you want other than your ISP if you choose | 16:25 |
| Quest | BaldFat, so what dns ip should clients have? | 16:25 |
| BaldFat | 192.168.1.1 (Or whatever your router is using) 99% of people do that | 16:26 |
| BaldFat | unless you have specific purpose for running your own DNS (Pain in the butt to do IMHO) | 16:26 |
| Quest | BaldFat, thats the problem. it works with 1.1 .but i want to give it 77.10 as dns for clients. so if i change the dsl from 1.1 to 2.1 . the clients wont have to be reconfigured | 16:27 |
| BaldFat | But I don't understand why you would do what you want to do? DNS is just google.com = 172.323.434.434 | 16:27 |

| wlfreeman | I recently installed Kubuntu on an Asus G46 laptop with an Elantech ETPS/2 touchpad. This isn't one of the "clickpads"; it has two physical buttons.

| Chris_W_ | I had an idea on what might be causing my screen issue. Ubuntu server is running on an old laptop that the screen had stopped working on. i removed the screen and cables. when i boot into windows, it still thinks i have to monitors, so maybe ubuntuu does too, and thats why the terminal output is only using half the screen. does this sound viable? | 17:55 |

| SolarisBoy | 'xset q' Chris_W_ | 18:15 |
| adamk | He's not in X. | 18:15 |
| SolarisBoy | oh.. ok.. | 18:15 |
| Chris_W_ | yeah. im really close to pulling my hair out on this. | 18:15 |
| Chris_W_ | i think linux is using two displays because the the laptop lcd (not connected) and the monitor (connected w/ vga) and its messing with the screen sizes. | 18:16 |
| Chris_W_ | or some crap. i dont know. | 18:16 |
| cheeseBreath | Chris_W_: do you want a gui | 18:17 |
| SolarisBoy | are you just running a TTY terminal on your laptop with no X (customized setup) ? im trying to understand your plight. | 18:17 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: Your explanation could be correct. With KMS, it will query all attached monitors and run a console on both at the largest shared resolution of the monitors. | 18:18 |
| Chris_W_ | cheeseBreath: no. im just using it for a mediaserver. im able to ssh into it with my work laptop, but I dont always have that, and so when i sit down infront of it i get tired of the screen using suck little space | 18:18 |
| adamk | So if the native resolution of the larger is 1680x1050 and the native resolutiion of the smaller is 1440x900, it will run a console at 1440x900 on the 1680x1050 monitor. | 18:18 |
| BaldFat | Chris_W_: arandr? | 18:18 |
| adamk | There are various options you can pass to the kernel to disable a monitor. | 18:18 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: i think thats it | 18:19 |
| Chris_W_ | BaldFat: no gui | 18:19 |
| adamk | BaldFat: Again, he's not using X. RANDR is only applicable for X. | 18:19 |
| SolarisBoy | ::sigh:: | 18:19 |
| Chris_W_ | so how do i go about seeing with "monitors" it thinks i have and disabling the small one? | 18:19 |
| BaldFat | Chris_W_: I should correct myself than I am sorry XRandR | 18:20 |
| SolarisBoy | questionable | 18:20 |

| maujhsn | veryhappy Why not use the synaptic package manager? | 18:23 |
| SolarisBoy | skulltip: your talking about webapps not ubuntu | 18:23 |
| bekks | veryhappy: Because the content type will not change when just renaming a file extension. | 18:23 |

| Chris_W_ | SolarisBoy: all except version | 18:23 |
| SolarisBoy | Chris_W_: may be useful files with data under those folders then | 18:24 |

| netlar | I am on Version 13.04 and when I turn on the machine, it just goes to a blank screen | 18:29 |
| veryhappy | bekks: isn't there any signature in the file? bekks i'm about to become a programmer i actually know more than just the basics, i just wondered if there's not a way to figure out over the signature? | 18:30 |
| veryhappy | bekks: we really could have told him the answer, not being rude. | 18:30 |
| bekks | veryhappy: No, there is no such signature. A file generally consists of content. | 18:30 |
| netlar | It was the driver for nvidia geforce 8200 | 18:30 |
| maujhsn | I am interested in recording a screencast for 20 minutes. How can I do this without my session locking up because i step away from the laptop for 20 minutes, any takers? | 18:30 |
| === milind is now known as abyss42 | ||
| bekks | veryhappy: Told which answer to whom? | 18:30 |
| netlar | I changed it to the 319 open source driver | 18:31 |
| abyss42 | Any recommendations for a good bash irc client? | 18:31 |
| bekks | netlar: There is no such thing as "319 open source driver". Which graphics hardware do you even have? | 18:31 |
| === tjbiddle_ is now known as tjbiddle | ||
| BluesKaj | maujhsn, you really should attend lectures in person :) | 18:32 |
| MonkeyDust | netlar blank screen with blinking cursor? if yes, try !nomodeset | 18:32 |
| Pici | abyss42: irssi and weechat are popular. | 18:32 |
| netlar | I have the Nvidea GeForce 8200 | 18:32 |
| bekks | netlar: Ah, the nvidia 8200. So you installed the nouveau driver? | 18:32 |
| netlar | MonkeyDust: yes | 18:32 |
| abyss42 | Thanks Pici | 18:32 |
| kboodu | abyss42: Command line or GUI? | 18:32 |
| maujhsn | BluesKaj Tell me about it :)! | 18:32 |
| MonkeyDust | !nomodeset | netlar | 18:32 |
| ubottu | netlar: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 18:32 |
| abyss42 | kboodu, command line. | 18:32 |
| kboodu | abyss42: Then I agree with Pici. | 18:33 |
| veryhappy | bekks: netlar | 18:33 |
| veryhappy | bekks: i mean i'd also be interested why there are so many people in here that normally don't talk. | 18:33 |
| bekks | veryhappy: I was referring to your question all the time, regarding the importance of a file extension. | 18:33 |
| netlar | yes veryhappy ? | 18:34 |
| kboodu | veryhappy, Some people are away. Some are only watching until they can answer a question. There may be other reasons. Does it matter? | 18:34 |
| netlar | bekks: no, it said nvidia 8200 319 open source driver | 18:35 |
| veryhappy | kboodu: yea :D especially for the days when i'm in here waiting for an answer and all this 1000 people in hear don't know an answer ... | 18:35 |
| kboodu | veryhappy: Just because they are here doesn't mean they would know the answer to YOUR question. We all have different knowledge... | 18:35 |
| bekks | netlar: The open source driver is called nouveau (and calls itself like that) and the closed source driver is called nvidia (and calls itselfs like that). | 18:35 |
| rannek | it's good to see that there are many people,that's have a feeling | 18:35 |
| zinouvitche | slt atou | 18:35 |
| bekks | netlar: So either you are using nvidia or nouveau. | 18:35 |
| veryhappy | kboodu: yea right | 18:36 |
| veryhappy | o | 18:36 |
| veryhappy | ok | 18:36 |
| netlar | bekks: hold on let me check | 18:36 |
| paddymahoney | my xorg died after installing nvidia 3.19-I had to ppa-purg xorg-edgers and a buncha things to get it back | 18:36 |
| bekks | paddymahoney: That may happen when using bleeding edge PPA. | 18:37 |
| paddymahoney | bekks: yep. | 18:37 |
| veryhappy | ok guys, coming back later i guess | 18:38 |
| veryhappy | see you | 18:38 |
| rannek | bye | 18:38 |
| veryhappy | take care and thank you | 18:38 |
| MadsRC | Hey guys, got a problem with an xubuntu 12.04 - I keep getting a DNS server of 127.0.1.1 which won't resolv my internal domains (from my internal DNS server) but It will resolv external domains. There's no problem when on Windows machines | 18:38 |
| netlar | bekks: This is exactly the description of the driver, NVIDIA binary Xorg driver, kernel module and VDPAU library from nvidia 319 (open source) | 18:38 |
| BluesKaj | the 319 driver is experimental afaik | 18:38 |
| synner | wow... crowded room | 18:39 |
| bekks | netlar: The vdpau library is opensource. The nvidia binary driver is closed source. | 18:39 |
| bekks | netlar: So which ubuntu do you use exactly? | 18:39 |
| synner | i am trying to move from 10.10 to 12.04 | 18:39 |
| synner | but dist-upgrade does not work | 18:39 |
| synner | any ideas? | 18:39 |
| netlar | I am just typing what it says on screen | 18:39 |
| synner | (for a server) | 18:39 |
| Pici | synner: You'd need to upgrade to 11.04 then 11.10 then 12.04. | 18:40 |
| bekks | synner: You have to update like 10.10 -> 11.04 -> 11.10 -> 12.04 | 18:40 |
| bekks | netlar: And I am just telling you what that means. :) | 18:40 |
| synner | cool | 18:40 |
| synner | how? | 18:40 |
| Pici | !eolupgrades | synner this should point you in the right direction | 18:40 |
| ubottu | synner this should point you in the right direction: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more information. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 18:40 |
| synner | thanks | 18:40 |
| netlar | bekks: so even though it has open source in the decryption, it is not open source? | 18:40 |
| bekks | netlar: the open source term refers to vdpau only. The term binary refers to closed source. | 18:41 |
| netlar | bekks ahh ok | 18:41 |
| netlar | thanks | 18:41 |
| bekks | netlar: And now please tell us which Ubuntu do you use. | 18:41 |
| netlar | 13.04 | 18:41 |
| MonkeyDust | netlar paste the exact output of 'cat /etc/issue' here without the quotes | 18:42 |
| bekks | netlar: The 319 driver isnt shipped from the official repos. Did you add an PPA? | 18:43 |
| netlar | Ubuntu 13.004 \n \l | 18:43 |
| netlar | bekks: you mean added the PPA so that the driver 319 showed up? | 18:44 |
| bekks | Yes. You did that. :) | 18:44 |
| netlar | All I remember doing was going to nvidia site for drivers and downloading a driver | 18:45 |
| netlar | MonkeyDust: sorry that is all the showed up | 18:45 |
| MonkeyDust | netlar that's not a copy/paste, it has an error in it | 18:46 |
| MonkeyDust | a typo | 18:46 |
| netlar | I know, typing this on another machine | 18:46 |
| netlar | Got on the other machine when my Ubuntu machine did not boot up | 18:47 |
| OerHeks | nvidia 8200 needs the old .173 driver AFAIK | 18:47 |
| netlar | OerHeks: Yes I see that as one of the drivers | 18:48 |
| OerHeks | netlar sorry, not the nvidia-173 but nvidia-173-updates | 18:48 |
| netlar | Oh goodness, have no idea which driver to use | 18:49 |
| btorch | ok so I'm trying to get some partitions mounted on boot up .. can't use fstab .. so created a config under /etc/init/ for upstart but nothing gets mounted | 18:50 |
| btorch | I see no errors either | 18:50 |
| btorch | very simple just "start on runlevel [2345] and then exec /usr/local/bin/mount_drives.sh | 18:50 |
| btorch | that just has a /bin/mount /srv/node/mpath0 | 18:51 |
| MonkeyDust | btorch what's wrong with fstab ? | 18:51 |
| btorch | works fine when I use initctl start mountdrives | 18:51 |
| bekks | netlar: You've just been told to use the nvidia-173-updates driver, not the 319 | 18:51 |
| btorch | multipath issues | 18:51 |
| BIGD1 | ntp | 18:51 |
| bcmb | Привет, по-русски кто-нибудь говорит? | 18:51 |
| MonkeyDust | !ru | 18:52 |
| ubottu | Пожалуйста наберите /join #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке. | Pozhalujsta naberite /join #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke. | 18:52 |
| netlar | bekks: Ok, I see "nvidia-173" on the list, but not nvidia-173-updates | 18:52 |
| netlar | How do I get that one? | 18:52 |
| MonkeyDust | btorch start from the beginning, what have you tried, including fstab, before you came here | 18:52 |
| bekks | netlar: Then use nvidia-173. | 18:52 |
| bcmb | Cannot join #ubuntu-ru: Registration is required. | 18:52 |
| bcmb | Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services | 18:52 |

| btorch | MonkeyDust: ok well got dell r720s with MD32xx using multipath | 18:53 |
| seedo | I tried to run arcanist . but got this err http://pastebin.com/Dz0qqBgk | 18:53 |
| === jack is now known as Guest37459 | ||
| btorch | MonkeyDust: multipah-tools works ok and I have all the drives up and looks ok | 18:53 |
| btorch | MonkeyDust: the problem is after a reboot if I keep this secondary devices on the fstab ubuntu freaks out that it can't find the mpathX device and gets stuck | 18:54 |
| btorch | so I'm assuming some boot order somewhere or perhaps modules but haven't had time to check that out for sure | 18:54 |
| seedo | how to set proxy when i'm working on intranet | 18:54 |
| seedo | ? | 18:54 |
| btorch | so decide to add noauto to the entries on fstab which then comes the problem of mounting them up after the boot process is done | 18:55 |
| MonkeyDust | btorch just checked multipath, it's beyond me, i guess | 18:55 |
| seedo | I tried dconf but still I get the same err for an installation http://pastebin.com/Dz0qqBgk | 18:55 |
| bindi | is there a cli spotify/youtube client? | 18:55 |
| btorch | for some reason upstart is not reading this config or something else during boot up | 18:56 |
| maujhsn | Anybody know the irc channel for "vlc media player"? | 18:56 |
| nullby7e | maujhsn: #vlc | 18:56 |
| seedo | maujhsn: #videolan I guess | 18:56 |

| === SuBmUnDo is now known as mAcoNha | ||
| btorch | do I need to enable something else ? do I need an init.d scripts ? | 18:57 |

| Ari-Yang | I have a question, is it recommended to have the option 'Grab Server during draw' under 'Sync' of composite settings? here's a screen shot: http://gyazo.com/68e11189bb26e3a1191d9a2ac0c810de | 18:57 |
| bekks | netlar: Define "that". | 18:58 |
| netlar | I changed driver of 173 | 18:58 |
| netlar | and then rebooted | 18:58 |
| netlar | to* | 18:58 |
| bekks | netlar: Did you uninstall every other driver before? Did you didabled the PPA before? Did you remove all software installed from that 'PPA before? | 18:58 |
| bekks | netlar: If one answer is not, do so. | 18:59 |
| netlar | bekks: ok , but I no screen again | 19:00 |
| bekks | netlar: Did you do what I just told you? I strongly doubt it, since it was only 2 minutes ago. | 19:01 |
| jdoles | How can I get a working installation of apparmor? Lots of files are missing and this has been reported by a lot of people already. | 19:01 |
| jdoles | All kinds of errors like: Could not open 'abstractions/ldapclient' | 19:01 |
| netlar | bekks: you are right , I did not, I just changed the driver to 173 | 19:02 |
| Ari-Yang | also, what does it mean to 'grab server during draw'? | 19:02 |
| bekks | netlar: Then do it... | 19:02 |
| Sagitt | why if i change an icon to a folder, icon from /usr/share/icons, i'll see a square around the folder icon? | 19:02 |
| netlar | bekks: I cannot I rebooted now have no screen | 19:03 |
| bekks | netlar: Then you have to reboot into failsafe mode. | 19:03 |
| Hiro` | Hi everyone, I wonder if anyone can help. I was just asked by Ubuntu if I wanted to do a partial upgrade, said yes, the upgrade seemed to work fine, but then when I came back to my computer a moment later it the screen had locked. No big deal normally, but the little dialogue box where I usually enter my password is not there and no amount of swearing, pleading or randomly pushing buttons seems to bring it back. Does anyone know how I | 19:03 |
| Hiro` | can get back onto my computer? Thanks. | 19:03 |
| MonkeyDust | Hiro` try bribing | 19:04 |
| netlar | Guess I will just reinstall | 19:04 |
| aaron__ | _> if i have a settings in my laptop bios that says hdd slot #1 seagate and hdd slot #2 empty does that mean i can have 2 internal hdds ? | 19:05 |
| Hiro` | MonkeyDust: What do you suggest I offer? | 19:05 |
| bekks | aaron__: It has two ports on the controller, but not necessarily the space for a second HDD. | 19:05 |
| aaron__ | bekks: ssds are smaller than hdds right? | 19:07 |
| gordonjcp | aaron__: it may not have the second controller port broken out | 19:07 |
| netlar | bekks: well anyway, thanks for trying to help me | 19:08 |
| nbp | anyone here have any experience installing ubuntu from ram? | 19:08 |
| aaron__ | gordonjcp: then why it has it? | 19:09 |
| WeThePeople | is it possible to delete headers from the grub | 19:09 |
| gordonjcp | aaron__: because the chip has it | 19:10 |
| gordonjcp | nbp: what do you mean, "from ram"? | 19:10 |
| wilee-nilee | WeThePeople, If you remove the kernels and run a update-grub they will be gone. | 19:10 |
| gordonjcp | WeThePeople: yeah, I did exactly that to get rid of all the linux-3.5 kernels floating about | 19:11 |
| xtacie | ok cross your fingers this works | 19:11 |
| gordonjcp | just uninstall what you don't want with your package management tool of choice, and as wilee-nilee says run update-grub | 19:11 |
| gordonjcp | and wait for a while.. | 19:11 |
| nbp | gordonjcp i'm trying to install a fresh ubuntu from ubuntu | 19:12 |
| aaron__ | can the kernel affect battery duration of a laptop? | 19:12 |
| nbp | but i have no usb and no cd access | 19:12 |
| WeThePeople | wilee-nilee, i would like to revert back to a previous ubuntu in the grub, how would i go about doing this? | 19:12 |
| nbp | the understanding i've come to gordonjcp is that I have to install ubuntu from the ram | 19:13 |
| Hiro` | Found a solution: =C-M-f1= to get a text-based terminal login, then =killall gnome-screensaver= to get rid of the screensaver. | 19:13 |

| zykotick9 | RIP Ubuntu 10.04LTS Lucid Lynx Desktop... :(.. | 19:16 |
| jdoles | Why do I get this on a LTS release for package apparmor? Found reference to variable HOME, but is never declared | 19:16 |
| OerHeks | RIP ubuntu 8.0.4 server | 19:16 |
| nbp | i guess the real question is how do I install from hard drive? | 19:17 |
| nbp | but while writing over the partition the iso is on | 19:17 |
| jdoles | Aren't LTS distributions intented to be *the* version of Ubuntu meant for people to use? | 19:17 |
| Hiro` | Muelli: in a file or just in a terminal to switch off the screensaver for the current session? | 19:18 |
| Muelli | Hiro`: instead of killall | 19:18 |
| Hiro` | Muelli: got you. Ta for the tip! | 19:18 |
| Quest | When i try to ssh a server, well any server, its stuck on password and some times resumes after a long delay and some times done. it seems that theres a problem with my ssh client? | 19:19 |
| wessel | I have Ubuntu installed on my primary SSD, and windows on my secondary SDD, I configured my bootloader to boot up windows by default. What is going to happen when I format SSD1? Will there be a bootloader on SSD2? I think grub is installed on SSD1 because it came with Ubuntu installation. I think there is a windows bootloader on SSD2 from the windows installation. | 19:19 |
| Muelli | Quest: maybe you network connection is very unreliable. You can debug SSH by giving many -v arguments | 19:19 |
| Loshki | jdoles: LTS are pretty stable, but it doesn't mean there are *no* bugs at all... | 19:20 |
| jdoles | Loshki: no bugs and a major package not even working after purging and reinstalling are two different things. | 19:20 |
| Npc | is there some free video editing software that allows making those tiled videos? | 19:20 |
| Npc | i'm not sure what the feature is called | 19:20 |
| jdoles | Loshki: Warning from stdin (line 1): /sbin/apparmor_parser: cannot use or update cache, disable, or force-complain via stdin | 19:20 |
| WeThePeople | how do i downgrade kernels? | 19:21 |
| Ari-Yang | ....tbh if I had known 12.04 would be supported longer than 12.10, I would have chosen it. but 12.10 is fine, haven't really encountered any bugs, well at least noticed any. | 19:21 |
| SolarisBoy | WeThePeople: you don't down/up grade kernels | 19:21 |
| SolarisBoy | WeThePeople: install or remove them | 19:21 |
| jdoles | Loshki: tell me how I am supposed to know what that is even supposed to mean? | 19:21 |
| BluesKaj | WeThePeople, you don't downgrade a kernel , you just use an olde one | 19:21 |
| BluesKaj | older | 19:21 |
| jdoles | Loshki: it's just some internal data which is of no interest to end-users. | 19:21 |
| WeThePeople | solarisboy, thanks for pointing that out, do you know how to install precise kernels and remove quantal kernels? | 19:22 |
| BillyZane | it's like... my system is breaking because of 13.04 .... | 19:22 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, where do you get that message? | 19:23 |
| jdoles | BillyZane: do you also use experimental medicine? | 19:23 |
| jdoles | tgm4883: apt-get install apparmor | 19:23 |
| SolarisBoy | jdoles: great analogy | 19:23 |
| BillyZane | jdoles: nope | 19:23 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, what is the output of 'echo $HOME' | 19:23 |
| SolarisBoy | WeThePeople: no i am not aware off top of my head how (or if you really want) to do that | 19:23 |
| Hwkiller | 13.04 is super buggy for me. 1) It won't completely shut down when I tell it to. It just stops at a blank screen. 2) It has now taken to randomly shutting down. | 19:23 |
| gordonjcp | nbp: have you considered PXE booting? | 19:23 |
| Hwkiller | 2) is really bugging me | 19:23 |
| jdoles | BillyZane: then you don't want to use a release which is not LTS. | 19:23 |
| Loshki | jdoles: I don't know what it means either, but google has seen it before, e.g. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1938656 | 19:23 |
| Hwkiller | Why is 13.04 shutting down for me? | 19:24 |
| jdoles | tgm4883: to which error message are you referring? | 19:24 |
| hany | clse | 19:24 |
| SolarisBoy | Hwkiller: the fact that 13.04 is "buggy" is probably due to it's not an LTS version and less stable more bleeding edge things make it there - | 19:24 |
| hany | close | 19:24 |
| BillyZane | jdoles: i guess you're right. i was running 12.10, how can i downgrade to an LTS? or.. i should say, when will the next LTS be released? | 19:24 |
| SolarisBoy | if your looking for stability stick with LTS - you really aren't losing much | 19:24 |
| SolarisBoy | if anything | 19:24 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, if you run that at a command prompt, what do you get back? | 19:24 |
| netlar | kwk | 19:24 |
| jdoles | tgm4883: /root | 19:25 |
| netlar | Hwkiller: same here | 19:25 |
| WeThePeople | can new and old kernels interfere with one another | 19:25 |
| Hwkiller | SolarisBoy: dude, I run testing on arch with fewer bugs | 19:25 |
| Hwkiller | no excuse | 19:25 |
| nbp | gordonjcp like a network install? | 19:25 |
| SolarisBoy | Hwkiller: arch isn't ubuntu | 19:25 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, why are you logged in as root? | 19:25 |
| SolarisBoy | Hwkiller: the comparison value there is nil | 19:25 |
| Hwkiller | SolarisBoy: I'm saying it's a crap excuse to say that "it's not LTS" | 19:25 |
| SolarisBoy | it actually isn't... | 19:25 |
| gordonjcp | nbp: yup | 19:25 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, or rather, how did you login as root | 19:25 |
| SolarisBoy | but ok.. | 19:25 |
| jdoles | tgm4883: because I am running apt-get install which requires root? | 19:25 |
| netlar | Hwkiller: it is so frustrating | 19:25 |
| jdoles | tgm4883: read the wiki if you want to know. | 19:26 |
| Hwkiller | regardless of whether it's LTS, my system should not shut down at random times. That's asinine | 19:26 |
| SolarisBoy | its a crap idea to use something that doesn't say "long term support" and come into support channels asking for support on it | 19:26 |
| gordonjcp | nbp: so what's the current situation? You have a machine running Ubuntu, and you want to install Ubuntu onto what? | 19:26 |
| jdoles | tgm4883: I thought you were going to help me. | 19:26 |
| SolarisBoy | opinions opinions.. | 19:26 |
| nbp | i have seen things about that but the steps looked more complicated, my quick understanding was that id need a special servver for that gordonjcp | 19:26 |
| superboot | Hi all. In older versions of ubuntu, you could open a new login in a window. It would look like gdm welcome screen, but in a window within the running login. How can I do this in current versions of ubuntu? | 19:26 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, actually it just requires sudo. | 19:26 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, yes, but I have to know what you did so far | 19:26 |
| jdoles | tgm4883: and sudo is how different from root? | 19:26 |
| jdoles | tgm4883: it is not. BAZINGA. | 19:26 |
| netlar | Hwkiller: I got ubuntu to work they way I wanted to , now it just crapped out on me | 19:26 |
| jdoles | Is there anyone who doesn't start discussions on root vs sudo and can just help me? | 19:27 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, yes, actually it can be | 19:27 |
| asah | Awesome! got the changes to GRUB2 source made, compiled, and happy seeming. If I want to use my hacked up version for my Ubuntu system now, do I simply make install? Or do I need to make a package or something? | 19:27 |
| Hwkiller | netlar: indeed. I had fewer bugs when 13.04 was beta than when it was released | 19:27 |
| SolarisBoy | jdoles: whats your issue? | 19:27 |
| SolarisBoy | you guys are bug testers lol | 19:28 |
| jdoles | SolarisBoy: you have been in the channel. Read the scrollback. | 19:28 |

| Muelli | asah: depends on how far down the rabbit hole you want to go. I'd probably apt-source grub, bump the version, patch it, build the package and install it. | 19:28 |
| jdoles | duder2: how low? | 19:28 |
| Npc | any suggestions for a free video editing software that allows creating picture-in-picture videos? | 19:29 |
| airtonix | mmm firefox on gnome shell 3.8 is kinda sexy | 19:29 |
| * SolarisBoy contains self | 19:29 | |
| Kurza | duder2: pretty much depends on the version | 19:29 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, well there is a difference between doing 'sudo -i', 'sudo su', and setting a password for the root user. Specifically when talking about environment variables, which is exactly you are having an issue with. But go ahead, continue to be an ass about it | 19:29 |
| xubuntu | Hello | 19:29 |
| Muelli | Npc: I think pitivi. | 19:29 |
| Chris_W_ | ok, so it's definitely LVDS-1. From google searching, thats the name/device given to internal lcds. | 19:29 |
| netlar | Hwkiller: It always comes down to the video drivers for me | 19:29 |
| SolarisBoy | jdoles: if you can summarize it nm | 19:29 |
| === xubuntu is now known as Guest76915 | ||
| duder2 | something that can boot quick just ceep the cpu usage low | 19:29 |
| Guest76915 | how do I change the bottom menu in xubuntu to look more like mint? | 19:29 |
| Chris_W_ | i just cant find how to disable it without using something like X | 19:29 |
| Npc | Muelli: thanks, i'll look into that | 19:29 |
| jdoles | tgm4883: apt-get install foo should *never* depend on the environment. | 19:29 |
| SolarisBoy | seems the community is losing the ability to listen/learn - just wants handed out answers in many cases - that blows chunks ;< | 19:30 |
| Hwkiller | SolarisBoy: Not using LTS doesn't mean that one no longer gets support, it means that LTS releases are offically supported for longer | 19:30 |
| Hwkiller | 13.04 users still need support | 19:30 |
| === Waithamai is now known as geisterwai | ||
| tgm4883 | jdoles, while that is probably true, I'm basing that off of the error message you are actually getting. eg. what is ACTUALLY happening vs what SHOULD be happening | 19:30 |
| Guest76915 | xubuntu isnt bad at all | 19:30 |
| jdoles | SolarisBoy: apt-get install apparmor results in Warning from stdin (line 1): /sbin/apparmor_parser: cannot use or update cache, disable, or force-complain via stdin | 19:30 |
| duder2 | jdoles: just something that boots quick and keeps the cpu running low | 19:30 |
| SolarisBoy | and you still need to understand your beta testing a version that will be pushing bleeding edge packages | 19:30 |
| SolarisBoy | so the ultimate point is - saying a non LTS is buggy - is redundant | 19:31 |
| Hwkiller | They are not pushing bleeding edge packages at all | 19:31 |
| SolarisBoy | great | 19:31 |
| jdoles | duder2: that question suggests we all want to waste CPU cycles. | 19:31 |
| * SolarisBoy has no time for subhumans | 19:31 | |
| jdoles | duder2: to help you somewhat more: just install XFCE4. | 19:31 |
| netlar | SolarisBoy: they need to put beta on the end of 13.04 then | 19:31 |
| Hwkiller | SolarisBoy: and who *cares*, all I know is that 13.04 is not properly shutting down, or randomly shuts down on its own. That needs to be fixed, LTS or not | 19:31 |
| Hwkiller | subhumans? are you serious? | 19:31 |
| jdoles | duder2: or become hardcore and install something called awesome. | 19:31 |
| asah | Muelli: apt-source? Hmm, I probably need to read up on package management in general. For now I'll probably just make install... | 19:31 |
| duder2 | jdoles: it's just that i find that 12.04 is making my cpu run a lot more than 10.04 did | 19:31 |
| jdoles | SolarisBoy: who are you talking about? | 19:32 |
| nyuszika7h | if tiling window manager, then i3 :P | 19:32 |

| SolarisBoy | jdoles: the person i blocked | 19:32 |
| duder2 | jdoles: i did install xcfe, but i didnt really notice anything different.. | 19:32 |
| SolarisBoy | as i can see your comment - dont mind it.. | 19:32 |
| nyuszika7h | duder2: you could try LXDE | 19:32 |
| netlar | Does Ubuntu have official support?? | 19:33 |
| duder2 | nyuszika7h: now are these all things i install whilst using 12.04? | 19:33 |
| nyuszika7h | duder2: you can try installing LXDE, it is more lightweight than XFCE | 19:33 |
| jdoles | netlar: if you pay someone. | 19:33 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, ok, so just to confirm, you were getting that error when trying to install apparmor on 12.04? | 19:34 |
| jdoles | tgm4883: for the 10th time. YES | 19:34 |
| netlar | jdoles: that is the support for companies, not normal people right? | 19:34 |
| duder2 | nyuszika7h: is ldxe its own ubuntu branch sort of thing, or is it somethig that gets installed after a version of ubuntu is already on the hdd | 19:34 |
| OerHeks | netlar your nvidia 820 is too old, as it is not supported in the latest driver. | 19:34 |
| OerHeks | *8200 | 19:34 |
| L0rdN1k0n | how good is aparmor? | 19:34 |
| SolarisBoy | netlar: its support for someone who pays for it company/person | 19:34 |
| jdoles | netlar: it also works for normal people. | 19:34 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, I only saw that once, but yea, thanks for confirming | 19:35 |
| nyuszika7h | duder2: there is Lubuntu, but you can install lubuntu-desktop | 19:35 |
| netlar | OerHeks: I am finding that out, but I can't get it back to the older drivers now | 19:35 |
| nyuszika7h | if you want to remove the Unity/XFCE apps, you can look for "pure Lubuntu", but run that command at your own risk | 19:35 |
| jdoles | duder2: what hardware do you have? | 19:35 |
| SolarisBoy | jdoles: you should be a little less uptight about repeating your info in the channel as you can see.. ppl are trying to help you | 19:35 |
| duder2 | jdoles: laptop. AMD dual core 64bit. 3 gb ram | 19:35 |
| jdoles | SolarisBoy: or he could just use the search feature in his IRC client. | 19:35 |
| OerHeks | netlar nvidia-173-updates should be compatible with 13.04 | 19:36 |
| jdoles | SolarisBoy: and trust me that I write down what I want to say and not something different. | 19:36 |
| SolarisBoy | jdoles: those two things i dont think are related - so on 1) thats my point he shouldn't have to 2) unrelated to the first point | 19:36 |
| === DarkAce-Z is now known as DarkAceZ | ||
| netlar | OerHeks: I chose that option under drivers, but it just said nvidea-173 , without the update at the end | 19:36 |
| Guest76915 | how do i move the top menu to the bottom on xubuntu 12? | 19:37 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, server or desktop? it appears it's (apparmor) already installed on server | 19:37 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: LVDS-1 is apparently what i need to figure out how to disable | 19:37 |
| jdoles | duder2: and what specifically is the problem? | 19:37 |
| jdoles | tgm4883: I already said I purged it and reinstalled it. | 19:37 |
| jdoles | tgm4883: can you please tell me why I have to say everything 10 times? | 19:37 |
| jdoles | duder2: it boots slowly? | 19:38 |
| netlar | OerHeks: problem now is I cannot get back to my desktop | 19:38 |
| SolarisBoy | Chris_W_: do you ever use the laptop screen? | 19:38 |
| jdoles | duder2: that's because you likely have no SSD in your laptop. | 19:38 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-kernel-70/kms-dual-monitors-specify-resolution-disable-monitor-radeon-806714/ | 19:38 |
| Guest76915 | is it me or is this channel chaotic? | 19:38 |
| kboodu | Guest76915: Try asking in the Xubuntu channel | 19:38 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, I didn't see any of your original issue, and I'm trying to reproduce your issue locally | 19:38 |
| duder2 | jdoles: well i had 10.04, worked good. i upgraded to 12.04 and it makes the cpu run a lot more | 19:38 |
| SolarisBoy | Guest76915: it's chaotic | 19:38 |
| Guest76915 | oh im in the wrong channel shit | 19:38 |
| Chris_W_ | SolarisBoy: no, the lcd is in a landfill | 19:38 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: That suggests "video=LVDS-1:d" should disable the output. | 19:38 |
| duder2 | jdoles: also, the boot on 12.04 is lagging for me | 19:39 |
| jdoles | duder2: and because Linux has not been optimized to limit the amount of file accesses in a smart way. | 19:39 |
| jdoles | duder2: Linux development is mostly paid for by server companies. | 19:39 |
| duder2 | jdoles: but the old ubuntu worked great | 19:39 |
| zheoffec | hi | 19:39 |
| ubuntu__ | L0rdN1k0n, apparmor is good, especially for standard applications like firefox and apache that have profiles preinstalled :) | 19:39 |
| jdoles | duder2: which desktop environment are you using now? | 19:39 |
| Guest76915 | has anybody used mint before? | 19:40 |
| duder2 | jdoles: well im using windsows 7 because the 12.04 LTS isn't working good | 19:40 |
| wilee-nilee | !mint | Guest76915 | 19:40 |
| ubottu | Guest76915: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu. Please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org | 19:40 |
| tgm4883 | jdoles, IDK, I can't reproduce the issue you are having on a fresh 12.04 install | 19:40 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: So put "video=LVDS-1:d" in /etc/defaults/grub somewhere and update-grub? | 19:41 |
| Guest76915 | im not seeking mint help. im just asking if anybody has used it before. | 19:41 |
| ubuntu__ | Guest76915: barely, but not as large development base as ubuntu f ex | 19:41 |
| wilee-nilee | Guest76915, It is off topic is all. ;) | 19:41 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: I would test it first by editing the grub kernel line when the computer boots up. | 19:41 |
| Guest76915 | cause im coming from mint and I can see why people say its more user friendly | 19:41 |
| Guest76915 | but i like this xubuntu. its pretty | 19:42 |

| jdoles | duder2: it would be the same. | 19:42 |
| duder2 | jdoles: ohh alright | 19:42 |
| WeThePeople | netlar, you mean your unix | 19:43 |

| jdoles | duder2: yes | 19:43 |
| zheoffec | @johnjohn101 ^^^ | 19:43 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: Very cool. So now find the correct place to edit your grub2 menu :-) | 19:43 |
| wilee-nilee | johnjohn101, sudo apt-get install lxde lubuntu-desktop has more apps is all. | 19:43 |
| netlar | Had a couple for over 12 years, never ever a problem | 19:43 |
| duder2 | jdoles: ahh alright, well ill give lubuntu a shot then and seee what happend | 19:43 |
| duder2 | **happens | 19:44 |
| netlar | WeThePeople: and such great support | 19:44 |
| jdoles | duder2: if you want things to go faster, buy a SSD. | 19:44 |
| Guest76915 | ok relax guys | 19:44 |
| Guest76915 | ill go to the other channel | 19:44 |
| duder2 | jdoles: ahh alright | 19:44 |
| jdoles | duder2: the CPU is often fast enough; it's the I/O that makes everything slow. | 19:44 |
| zheoffec | netlar: do you have a problem with ubuntu? | 19:44 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="video=LVDS-1:d" look good to you? | 19:44 |
| ubuntu__ | johnjohn101: if lxde is the name of the application, then it's sudo apt-get install lxde, else try apt-cache search lxde, to find the name | 19:45 |
| duder2 | jdoles: ohhh gotcha | 19:45 |
| netlar | zheoffec: I do | 19:45 |
| SolarisBoy | earl2: vncviewer -via <the ssh host> | 19:45 |
| jdoles | duder2: and most of this is caused again, because no optimizations are done in desktop linux. | 19:45 |
| netlar | zheoffec: and I am so frustrated | 19:45 |
| zheoffec | what is it | 19:45 |
| jdoles | duder2: imagine the worst possible programmer. Then imagine they wrote what you see before you. | 19:45 |
| SolarisBoy | the -via will setup the a tunnel with local port forwarding | 19:45 |
| adamk | Chris_W_: Looks about right to me, but I'm still much more familiar with the original grub. | 19:45 |
| SolarisBoy | earl2: you can also do it manually with ssh commands and then a vnc command | 19:45 |
| duder2 | jdoles: haha | 19:46 |
| Chris_W_ | adamk: sweet baby jesus that worked too! | 19:46 |
| netlar | zheoffec: I changed the video driver, and now will not boot up. I know I should not of done that, but I can't get it back now | 19:46 |
| jdoles | duder2: your desktop could easily have 100 times less I/O when it loads. | 19:46 |
| Chris_W_ | oh, man. now to try and find another mindblowing problem. ;) | 19:46 |
| SolarisBoy | lol | 19:46 |
| jdoles | duder2: hence, the SSD is only needed to work around problems created by developers in the first place. | 19:46 |
| duder2 | jdoles: would xubuntu be slower or faster than lubuntu | 19:47 |
| jdoles | duder2: but you can either annoy yourself, or just go with the flow. | 19:47 |
| jdoles | duder2: I don't know. | 19:47 |
| duder2 | jdoles: ah alrigh | 19:47 |
| zheoffec | netlar: what driver? | 19:47 |
| netlar | nvidia driver | 19:47 |
| jdoles | duder2: because Windows is more integrated (and some technical reasons) Windows feels faster. | 19:47 |
| jdoles | duder2: but there are important reasons to not run Windows. | 19:48 |
| mojeime | hi my grub2 wont boot iso of ubuntu but can boot iso or kali | 19:48 |
| SolarisBoy | jdoles: are you saying that the reason why some peoples desktops are slower than others for Linux is realted to non optimized programmatic routines which generate I/O? | 19:48 |
| netlar | zheoffec: I looked up the driver on nvidia site and they said the 319 driver is what I needed for my geforce 8200 | 19:48 |
| zheoffec | how did you install it? | 19:48 |
| netlar | zheoffec: and that driver was on my list | 19:48 |
| mojeime | i try to just edit my grub2 menuentry copy pasted from kali and cahnged to ubuntu but it dosent work | 19:49 |
| SolarisBoy | thats going to make me lol out my chair if so | 19:49 |
| netlar | zheoffec: Honestly I do not remember | 19:49 |
| jdoles | SolarisBoy: hardware always matters, but I think it would be virtually unnoticable if it was programmed more efficiently. | 19:49 |
| === ubuntu__ is now known as svenn | ||

| netlar | zheoffec: I cannot get the machine to boot up anymore | 19:50 |
| netlar | zheoffec: Just comes to a blank screen | 19:50 |
| zheoffec | at what point does it stop | 19:50 |
| SolarisBoy | jdoles: those facilities are available caching/prefetching. FOSS software is generally some of the best written software - it would be hard to compare windows to linux unless you work for MS and viewed their source - Linux base source code amazing and very clean/dry/accurate | 19:51 |
| zheoffec | can you enter a tty with ctrl + alt + F1? | 19:51 |
| netlar | zheoffec: comes to the login screen | 19:51 |
| SolarisBoy | as for the userland programs i guess it's possible but thats a HUGE generalization to go and say that - | 19:51 |

| SolarisBoy | jdoles: as a developer im going to have to say thats an over simplified statement | 19:52 |

| wilee-nilee | BCB, Ubuntu is maintained by many, and gets updates almost everyday, many of which are improvements, upgrades and fixes. | 19:58 |
| jdoles | mojeime: it's called the prompt. | 19:58 |
| tgm4883 | BCB, you'll get updates if packages in the repos (that you have installed) are updated | 19:58 |
| mojeime | jdoles: and what does prompt do? | 19:58 |

| tgm4883 | BCB, you need to run "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" | 20:01 |
| tgm4883 | BCB, just running 'sudo apt-get update' does not upgrade the packages. It just downloads a listing of what packages are available | 20:01 |

| Hwkiller | I think I just figured out why my laptop is randomly shutting down. The sensors are announcing ~92c temperatures... when there is no way that is true. In fact, it just jumped from 98c to 62c in about 10 seconds | 20:10 |
| Hwkiller | but if it randomly hits 100c, it shuts off | 20:11 |
| jdoles | Hwkiller: perhaps it's your nickname? | 20:11 |
| bazhang | !behelpful | jdoles | 20:11 |
| ubottu | jdoles: As our !guidelines say, "When helping, be helpful". If you're not familiar with the issue at hand, let someone else handle it instead of making !offtopic comments or jokes. | 20:11 |
| jdoles | bazhang: can you also say that to everyone who supposedly tried to help me, but failed miserably? | 20:12 |
| bazhang | jdoles, lets stay on topic please | 20:13 |

| bekks | netlar: Purging the nvidia drivers is not enough. When it happened that you used the xorg-edgers PPA e.g., you would have to downgrade your entire X server, as it would have been updated by that PPA. | 20:17 |

| usr13 | WeThePeople: Are you sure you have the headphones plugged into correct port? | 20:21 |
| WeThePeople | yes | 20:21 |
| wilee-nilee | netlar, purging the drivers does not get rid of all the stuff originally installed not the PPA. | 20:21 |

| michealPW | The closest thing to a pattern I could find with Ubuntu's screen Blanking was when my wireless usb dongle was plugged in but the mouse was turned off. Seemed to be that was the only common denominator in each case it failed to blank the screen | 21:12 |
| michealPW | Whereas when it was blanking properly the mouse was turned on.. 'course I couldn't reproduce this every time so I'm still lost :( | 21:12 |
| michealPW | Also when it works it works perfectly as it should, so it's not as though it *can't* blank the screen... Any ideas? :\ | 21:13 |

| deadweasel | yup, ntfs from an old machine Dr_Willis | 21:53 |
| Dr_Willis | deadweasel: thats why then... | 21:53 |
| deadweasel | I can move it if that's the problem... | 21:54 |
| deadweasel | weird | 21:54 |
| deadweasel | I never knew | 21:54 |
| Dr_Willis | not weird at all.. ntfs and vfat cant handle the normal linux permissions | 21:54 |
| deadweasel | makes sense when you put it that way. | 21:54 |
| Dr_Willis | the 'bash whatever.run' may have worked.. | 21:54 |
| deadweasel | nope | 21:54 |
| deadweasel | but i'm gonna move it :) | 21:54 |
| Dr_Willis | you can mount ntfs/vfat in a way that EVERTHING on them is executable.. which is even more annoying | 21:55 |

| lukecarrier | it's official; no other distro has such shitty Optimus support | 21:57 |
| lukecarrier | I wonder if Canonical will ever pull their fingers from their corporate rear and commit time to fixing these issues | 21:57 |
| === theskyline_ is now known as theskyline | ||
| Diamondcite | I didn't think linux had any functional form of support for Optimus | 21:59 |
| === daniel is now known as Guest56116 | ||
| lukecarrier | Diamondcite, Bumblebee and xrandr provide preliminary (read: hacky) support | 22:00 |
| Dr_Willis | Bumblebee has been around for some time now | 22:00 |
| lukecarrier | NVIDIA announced proprietary drivers that introduce some support too, but they require a newer xrandr release than Ubuntu ships | 22:00 |
| lukecarrier | trying to get a stable DE on Optimus is an impossible task... misinformation everywhere | 22:01 |
| Guest56116 | hi i am wondering if there is support in ubuntu/ubuntu server for the tigon video card? | 22:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Tigon? thats a new name to me.. | 22:01 |
| Diamondcite | I thought support was limited to locking to one specific card? Or can it sort of switch now? | 22:01 |
| blueyoshi321 | About 10 minutes after I connect to my campus wired network with wicd, I lose the ability to do DNS lookups (but still have connectivity otherwise). syslog shows dhclient doing a bunch of DHCPDISCOVERs and eventually saying "No DHCPOFFERS received." Any thoughts? | 22:01 |
| Guest56116 | tigon was made by ATI | 22:01 |
| yayLINUX | hey guys | 22:01 |
| Dr_Willis | Diamondcite: i belive it defaults to the intel. then you can specifically run games/stuff and activate the nvidia card | 22:01 |

| adamk | Guest56116: Are you in front of the machine with this card? | 22:02 |
| Guest56116 | no right now | 22:02 |

| mgottschlag | hey, anybody can tell me whether the bug which bricked samsung laptops with efi is fixed in 12.10? | 22:03 |

| yayLINUX | i have a question: When I want to start developping apps with monodevelop in ubuntu 13.04 it says this when I make the project: Error while trying to load the project '/home/christiaan/Bureaublad/test/test/test/test.vbproj': Project does not support framework '.NETFramework,Version=v4.0' | 22:03 |
| Guest56116 | the machine that has the tigon is a older HP ProLiant ML350 G3 server | 22:03 |
| yayLINUX | anybody? | 22:04 |
| MonkeyDust | yayLINUX try #ubuntu-app-devel | 22:04 |
| yayLINUX | k thx | 22:04 |
| Dr_Willis | yayLINUX: well.. its amazing how much people seem to hate MONO. ;) thats all i can say on the topic. | 22:04 |
| yayLINUX | well, i just want to try it :p | 22:04 |
| Diamondcite | (Mono as in silverlight?) | 22:05 |
| adamk | Guest56116: According to HP's website, it's an ATI Rage XL: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?objectID=c00409056&prodSeriesId=316537 | 22:05 |

| xtacie_ | l | 22:05 |
| adamk | Guest56116: If that's correct, then it should be supported by the mach64 Xorg driver, though I wouldn't expect any great performance out of a GPU that old. | 22:06 |
| OerHeks | Guest56116 Alteon Networks Tigon I/II gigabit Ethernet, not video | 22:06 |
| Guest56116 | adamk: i know but i cant seem to get the Rage card to work on 13.04 | 22:07 |
| adamk | Guest56116: We'd need to see the Xorg log file to figure out what's going wrong. The mach64 driver is definitely present on 13.04, though. Whether or not it works properly is another matter entirely :-) | 22:08 |
| Guest56116 | i cant even get the display right as it says the screen resolution is out of range | 22:08 |
| adamk | Guest56116: If that's happening on the console, try booting with vga=normal as an option to the kernel. If that's happening in X, we still need to see that Xorg log file. | 22:09 |
| Guest56116 | i cant even see what the terminal font on the screen | 22:09 |
| Dr_Willis | the grub /etc/default/grub file has options to use a old fashioned grub 'text' based menu also. but you may need to use a live cd to boot and chroot and alter that.. or the boot-repair tool. | 22:10 |
| Dr_Willis | if you can get to the system in some low res/console mode.. install the ssh server. and hopefully you can then ssh in and try to fix things if the monitor is not working | 22:11 |
| hackzs-titan | hye | 22:11 |
| adamk | Oh, right, I forgot that grub2 tries to use a high resolution console, too. That's the first thing I think I disabled. | 22:11 |
| adamk | Guest56116: Can you even access the grub menu when the machine boots up? | 22:12 |
| Dr_Willis | adamk: yep. its a bit annoying for old machines. | 22:12 |
| Guest56116 | yes i can ssh in but the resolution and font work on 10.04LTS | 22:12 |
| Guest56116 | and no i cant access the grub menu | 22:12 |
| adamk | Guest56116: OK, so ssh in and edit the grub2 config so it uses the regular old low resolution console. | 22:13 |
| Dr_Willis | if you can ssh in, you can try to force grub to use the old text only menu | 22:13 |

| netlar1 | I have my system running again, but I think it is going to be unstable, I am on 13.04, and the problem is the drivers for the geforce 8200 nividia card | 22:13 |
| jluc | hello | 22:14 |
| Dr_Willis | thats in /etc/default/grub edit the file. rerun 'sudo update-grub' and reboot.. | 22:14 |
| netlar1 | Do I need to remove the PPA sources? | 22:14 |
| Dr_Willis | netlar1: ppa sources for what? | 22:14 |
| netlar1 | xorg-edgers | 22:14 |
| Dr_Willis | you want to remove/stop using xorg-edgers? you can use ppa-purge for that. | 22:15 |
| MonkeyDust | sound "très" not-supported | 22:15 |
| Guest56116 | adamk: okay i would have to start from scratch | 22:15 |
| netlar1 | Dr_Willis: Waht does that do exactly? | 22:15 |
| Dr_Willis | removes the ppa, reinstalls the old packages | 22:15 |
| Dr_Willis | !ppa-purge | 22:16 |
| ubottu | To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 22:16 |
| donnie | Command please. so I can find out what MB my video card is running | 22:16 |
| netlar1 | Dr_Willis: so kinda resetting the ppa's? | 22:16 |
| Dr_Willis | netlar1: its PURGEING the ppa.. removeing it and restoring defaults | 22:16 |
| netlar1 | ok | 22:16 |
| netlar1 | Dr_Willis: how would that affect the drivers that I have installed | 22:17 |
| Dr_Willis | netlar1: installed how? if they came from that ppa - they would get PURGED.. | 22:17 |
| Dr_Willis | donnie: try 'hwinfo' perhaps | 22:17 |
| iceroot | is there an easy way to find the packages which were getting the most updates for an ubuntu release without downloading all changelogs and doing some sed/grep/awk-foo? | 22:17 |
| netlar1 | Dr_Willis: I want to reset the graphics drivers to how it was when I first install 13.04 | 22:18 |
| Dr_Willis | netlar1: then you purge any ppas you were using.. | 22:18 |
| donnie | Not installed | 22:18 |

| Dr_Willis | netlar1: no idea on that. ive rarely had to purge ppas' - could be you did it wrong. | 22:23 |

| exad | Hello, I'm trying to get sound working through HDMI with my HD6850 I tried aplay -l to get a list of audio devices and then created an asound.conf but that didn't seem to do it. Then I tried the alsa daily ppa, but that didn't work either. Also, I've made sure to unmute the device in alsamixer. I'm not too sure what else I can try. :/ | 22:59 |
| xubuntuGruff | i finally understand why dualbooting is impossible | 22:59 |
| bluewulf | Dual booting isn't.... | 22:59 |
| bluewulf | I'm on a dualboot right now.... | 22:59 |
| xubuntuGruff | exad is the audio driver installed? | 22:59 |
| exad | Well I installed the ati closed source ati drivers xubuntuGruff | 23:00 |
| xubuntuGruff | my dual boot died bluewulf. I did everything correctly, and it doesnt even show me an option to boot from linux | 23:00 |
| bluewulf | Well, It may have been something with the way you installed. | 23:00 |
| bluewulf | XubuntuGruff did you start with windows? | 23:00 |
| exad | IIt seems to have added another audio device after I did so, in aplay -l described as HDMI | 23:00 |
| xubuntuGruff | i had a partitioned HDD | 23:00 |
| xubuntuGruff | yes I did | 23:00 |
| xubuntuGruff | it was 2 NTFS partitions | 23:01 |
| bluewulf | I did too, it works fine | 23:01 |
| bluewulf | Oh, haha don't do that!] | 23:01 |
| exad | Oooo, I wonder if my integrated graphics are enabled in BIOS as I was using Windows 7 before.... | 23:01 |
| exad | BRB | 23:01 |
| wilee-nilee | xubuntuGruff, Did you install ubuntu from windows? | 23:01 |
| xubuntuGruff | no wilee-nilee. I booted from the disk | 23:01 |
| romtsjo | bazhang, any ideas? | 23:01 |
| bluewulf | The partitionings annoying, so partition an area of free space from windows, and use the disk to put it on the empty space. | 23:02 |
| xubuntuGruff | I used ext4 file system? is that the issue? | 23:02 |
| bazhang | romtsjo, what does ifconfig show? eth0 lo wlan0 or what | 23:02 |
| wilee-nilee | xubuntuGruff, well, personally I have 4 OS on my ssd so multibooting is rather easy. | 23:02 |
| bluewulf | It can be. The way the partitioning was set up for what I'm using, a weird version of linux (backtrack) is being a but. | 23:02 |
| romtsjo | bazhang, only lo | 23:02 |
| bluewulf | See, look at him. Butt. @wilee-nilee | 23:02 |
| bluewulf | Does anyone have like, a compilation of broadcam fixes? haha | 23:03 |
| romtsjo | bazhang, but in network-manager I have only VPN | 23:03 |
| xubuntuGruff | im trying to google installation instructions for xubuntu but they dont have anything weirdly | 23:03 |
| xubuntuGruff | its weird how many problems ubuntu has and yet mint hardly has any | 23:04 |
| bluewulf | This is why I just use windows. But all the USEFUL programs are on linux | 23:04 |

| bluewulf | not an option for me, I'm working on network hacking. Which requires a network card. | 23:05 |
| bluewulf | That works. | 23:05 |
| xubuntuGruff | like which ones? bluewulf | 23:05 |
| bluewulf | Like which ones what? | 23:06 |
| xubuntuGruff | bluewulf try linux mint with a wubi install. its almost as easy to use as windows | 23:06 |
| bluewulf | I'm just having trouble installing my networking card. | 23:06 |
| xubuntuGruff | which useful programs? bluewulf | 23:06 |
| bluewulf | I just meant that windows comes pre-built in almost everything | 23:06 |
| bluewulf | XubunutuGruff, look up Backtrack. | 23:07 |
| xubuntuGruff | windows also has hardware/vendor support. linux is pretty much on its own there | 23:07 |
| bluewulf | And they're all network sniffing, packet injecting, and rainbowtables | 23:07 |
| bluewulf | I'm learning network security, but at this point, I wish I could take a proffesional class. | 23:07 |
| bluewulf | @ubuntugruff any help for broadcam beyond that !broadcam thing? | 23:09 |
| exad | Nah, Onboard HDMI and HDMI audio both disabled in BIOS so I'm at a loss -_- | 23:09 |
| exad | Maybe I'll just sell my 6850 and use onboard HDMI until I can get an nvidia card | 23:09 |
| bluewulf | What's your trouble exad? | 23:10 |
| romtsjo | bazhang, so what can I do? | 23:10 |
| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2115659 romtsjo here | 23:10 |
| [deXter] | exad, If you're planning to use the open-source drivers, I would recommend an ATi card instead. | 23:11 |
| exad | I'm using a 6850 now and the closed source drivers aren't working | 23:11 |
| xubuntuGruff | theres definitely alot more people in this IRC, why are they all quiet? | 23:11 |
| exad | xubuntuGruff: idling? | 23:12 |
| exad | it IS irc afterall.... | 23:12 |
| bluewulf | And I've tried a bunch of different things, can anyone look directly at my error file? | 23:12 |
| xubuntuGruff | pastebin.com bluewulf. let me see | 23:12 |
| exad | [deXter]: I don't see why I would buy another ATI card when I can't get the sound working on this one | 23:12 |

| xubuntuGruff | give me 5 minutes i need to release fluids from my urinary tract | 23:13 |
| [deXter] | exad, You can't go into sound settings and change the output device? | 23:13 |
| romtsjo | bazhang, thanks. I'll use it | 23:15 |

| uvala | a number of bookmarked channels have disappeared from Xchat client, including all ubuntu-related ones. did this happen to you with Xchat? | 23:17 |
| gunitinug | uvala no | 23:17 |
| bazhang | uvala, put them back in the auto join list | 23:17 |
| gunitinug | reinstall xchat | 23:18 |
| bazhang | gunitinug, bad advice | 23:18 |
| uvala | bazhang, they disappeared from there. I could put them manually again, but that's bizarre | 23:18 |
| bazhang | uvala, that bookmark this channel has never worked that I have seen | 23:18 |

| bazhang | uvala, yes | 23:19 |
| bluewulf | Linux is a butttt. | 23:20 |
| bazhang | bluewulf, lets stay on topic | 23:20 |
| uvala | bazhang, is this not something that needs to be reported if it's never worked properly? | 23:21 |
| bluewulf | haha, I'm still having trouble, It's so annoying. | 23:21 |
| xubuntuGruff | shit man. look at that log u sent | 23:21 |
| bazhang | uvala, you could report a bug; I just use the auto join feature setting | 23:21 |
| bazhang | xubuntuGruff, no cursing here | 23:22 |
| bluewulf | yeah, Xubuntugruff, Why is nvidia in there anyways? I was trying to activate a networking card... | 23:22 |
| bazhang | uvala, there is also the channel #xchat , perhaps they have a workaround | 23:22 |
| uvala | oh, thank you. I'll drop by there now | 23:23 |
| xubuntuGruff | it cant be a dependency | 23:23 |
| xubuntuGruff | BroadcomWLHandler enabled() is the wireless 1 | 23:23 |

| xubuntuGruff | is the driver a .deb file? | 23:27 |
| xubuntuGruff | its sometimes easier to just build the package from a .deb | 23:27 |
| bluewulf | So I move that .log file, and run the activate from system/administration/hardware drivers, and it doesn't even write to the log.... | 23:27 |

| petey | how would i go about it | 23:32 |
| bluewulf | All you have to do is find the command for renaming files, and set up a loop to rename them. | 23:32 |
