=== exad_ is now known as exad [00:02] sound not working on 12.04.2 x64. any ideas [00:03] WeThePeople: Need more clues! [00:03] tekkbuzz, exactly === kboodu is now known as kboodu|AFK [00:04] it was working last reboot, idk what happened [00:04] Would anyone happen to have a solution to my problem in this? I'm having an issue installing my Realtek driver for my wireless card (an Asus PCE-N15) which seems to have a common issue with Linux http://askubuntu.com/questions/292751/issues-installing-wireless-network-driver/292806?noredirect=1#comment368183_292806 [00:07] i have ubuntu 12.04 lts and i cantwatch the vids on youtube on fire fox [00:07] WeThePeople, I don't mean to insult, but did someone bump your volume control? [00:07] docsleezy: have you clicked the prompt to install flash? [00:07] hello everyone [00:07] xubuntu: hi === xubuntu is now known as Guest72238 [00:08] ki4r0, all volume levels are set to the appropriate level :) [00:08] i'm having a "detecting file systems..." problem it's just freezing on that.... and btw im trying to install it on an external HDD [00:08] any thoughts? [00:08] yeah i did awhile ago and it oesnt prompt me but it doesnt play the vieo either [00:09] WeThePeople, Okay, good...seen stranger things happen to folks...gl [00:09] VisceralSound: where are you stuck? [00:09] i mean the installer is just stuck on that "detecting file systems" screen [00:09] docsleezy: do you just see a blank box where the player should be? [00:10] installedchromium it wont play there either [00:10] yes [00:10] chromium uses a different flash player to firefox [00:10] docsleezy: look for a flash player package in the software centre to install [00:10] ok thanks [00:11] docsleezy: also, i'd be curious if you see anything flash player related if you hit ctrl+shift+a in firefox, which is the same as going off the tools menu and picking 'Add-ons' [00:12] Guest72238: is the external disk blank? [00:12] in the sound setting there is no output device [00:12] how do i change that [00:13] WeThePeople: do you think you might've installed some updates between when sound worked and when it didn't? [00:13] daftykins, not to my knowledge [00:14] WeThePeople: i'm wondering if you might've got a new kernel that broke sound [00:14] daftykins, no new kernels [00:14] how are you checking? [00:15] Bien le bonsoir [00:15] Ha EN? [00:15] No FR? [00:15] !fr [00:15] Nous sommes désolés, mais ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. [00:15] it says shockwave flash i assumed that was the same as adobe [00:15] thanks you :) [00:16] docsleezy: pretty much [00:16] hey ho, i'm running into the -1 channel bug [00:16] flash plugins was checked in software center [00:17] i tried to pach it with the compat-drivers but when i try to run make i get these errors here [00:17] http://askubuntu.com/questions/291759/aircrack-ng-channel-1-patch-help [00:17] someone any idea how to fix his? [00:17] no support for aircrack here methinks [00:18] it's more a kernel problem... :/ [00:18] pft even wiping drivers and doing a distro specific buildpkg didnt work [00:18] crane: doubt it [00:18] hdmi doesnt even show up in sound settings for output [00:19] any way to get automake version 1.11.1 on LTS12 64bit instead of 1.11.3? GRUB2 1.99 from apt-get source won't build due to automake changes. [00:20] AsSlowAsHell, Generally in synaptic if available you can downgrade and lock it. [00:20] lower version doesn't seem to be available in synaptic [00:21] AsSlowAsHell, Probably a deb on the web, I would look there and install and lock. [00:21] ok, thanks [00:21] AsSlowAsHell, I have grub 2 in precise form a ppa. [00:22] might help, not sure. [00:22] bah!! [00:22] no way!! its a kernel bug!! [00:22] no wonder! [00:23] i was starting to think im an idiot [00:23] !enter | exad YOU might now all that sharp, lol [00:23] exad YOU might now all that sharp, lol: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [00:23] Really [00:24] Hey all. When apt-get returns "The following packages have been kept back:" what does this actually mean? If it's a dependency issue, why not just say that. [00:24] Dante_J, Could be dependency, is it kernels? [00:24] no, cinnamon [00:24] !dist-upgrade | Dante_J [00:24] Dante_J: A dist-upgrade will install new dependencies for packages already installed and may remove packages if they are no longer needed. This will not bring you to a new release of Ubuntu, see !upgrade if that is your intention. === linuxfreak003 is now known as badwolf === kboodu|AFK is now known as kboodu [00:24] Dante_J, thats a MINT issue, right? [00:24] I'm sticking with my lts [00:24] no - ppa === badwolf is now known as linuxfreak003 [00:25] Gwendal LE BIHAN [00:25] https://launchpad.net/~gwendal-lebihan-dev/+archive/cinnamon-stable [00:25] Dante_J, contact him then [00:25] yes, I suspect you would suggest as much [00:25] so [00:25] back to the original question [00:26] PPA are unsupported, yes [00:26] having trouble finding a x64 deb for it... screw it. maybe i'll just check out a newer version of GRUB2 from bazaar. I'm guessing they fixed it on their end eventually.. How do I apply all the debian/ubuntu patches to it? where do i get the patches? Either that or I'll just say screw it and put LTS 10 on there. Should build on that. I really hate dealing with issues like this heh... [00:26] what exactly is the definition of what: "The following packages have been kept back" [00:26] and I gave the answer to things held back Dante_J [00:26] lol. sorry [00:27] I'm interested in the specifics. Why is this different from the error message that mentions dependencies. [00:27] time to download 12.04 [00:27] AsSlowAsHell, The 10.04 desktop is eol tomorrow [00:27] Dante_J: because it's a different circumstance? [00:27] Would anyone happen to have a solution to my problem in this? I'm having an issue installing my Realtek driver for my wireless card (an Asus PCE-N15) which seems to have a common issue with Linux http://askubuntu.com/questions/292751/issues-installing-wireless-network-driver/292806?noredirect=1#comment368183_292806 [00:28] VisceralSound: i asked you earlier where you're getting stuck [00:28] thanks daftykins - I'll read some dpkg source code. [00:28] that should tell me [00:29] that or apt's man pages [00:29] indeed. [00:29] Daftykins: once I go to "Make install" I get 2 errors, in my link I posted what the errors were in the op [00:30] cant find the node name for the ubuntu security (team) channel, could anyone help me? [00:30] VisceralSound: did you follow the guy's guide to use his patch to fix that? [00:30] !alis | uvala [00:30] uvala: alis is a services bot that can help you find channels. Read "/msg alis help list" for help and ask any questions about it in #freenode. Example usage: /msg alis list #ubuntu* or /msg alis list *http* === KindOne- is now known as KindOne [00:31] Daftykins: I've "downloaded" the text he had on his website, but I don't know what to "edit" persay he says you can go edit a file/folder of sorts I'm not sure how to [00:31] What location is this referring to, it is not in my home dir (yes I looked under hidden files): resulting amp will end up in ./libreoffice-online-edit-share/target/ [00:31] when will GLEW 1.7+ and SFML 2.0+ be updated in synaptic for ubuntu 12.04? [00:31] bjrohan: . means current directory [00:31] bazhang, thank you for referring me to xchat channel, it helped me know how to find back my lost channels! [00:31] !sru | skulltip [00:31] skulltip: Stable Release Update information is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates [00:31] would it difficult to downgrade my kernel to 3.8.0.17???? [00:32] -17 even [00:32] !info linux-image [00:32] linux-image (source: linux-meta): Generic Linux kernel image.. In component main, is optional. Version 3.8.0.19.35 (raring), package size 1 kB, installed size 33 kB [00:32] exad: why? [00:32] wilee-nilee, ah damn. Man this is such a pain in the ass. It's taking more time to straighten out this bullshit than it actually took to code the GRUB2 module i added [00:32] I want to backup a bunch of files using rsync, but make sure that if there are identical files, they are only copied once. Is there a way to do this? [00:33] it built fine on 11.10 desktop 32bit heh [00:33] VisceralSound: can you give me the link to his page again? sorry i closed it [00:33] jrib: thanks. I looked in the dir I did the build in /Download/alfresco-libreoffice-online-share and it is not in there :-( [00:33] pythonirc1011: sure rsync can do that. Read documentation or try #rsync [00:33] Daftykins: this is the link to my askubuntu http://askubuntu.com/questions/292751/issues-installing-wireless-network-driver/292806?noredirect=1#comment368183_292806 [00:34] because Im suffering from a bug that wont allow me to use hdmi audio with 3.8.0-19 or 18 [00:34] pythonirc1011: rsync does that by default [00:34] VisceralSound: so have you followed exactly what he does here? http://blog.83c.org/how-to-compile-the-realtek-8169-driver-with-linux-kernel-3-8/ [00:35] Daftykins: I'm not sure how to do the last part, I've downloaded said file but don't know how to replace anything It turns out that the macros __devinit and __devexit no longer exist in kernel 3.8 and that’s why the compilation fails. The problem can be solved by removing these macros in file r8169_n.c . I have made a patch with these modifications. You can download it here. To use it, copy the patch in the src subdirectory of [00:35] phix: jrib: I dont think I asked it clearly. If a there are duplicate files on machine A, I want only one copy of it to be taking space on machine B. [00:36] I think I need some kind of a archival software that can do internal symlinks for not-replicating data. [00:36] VisceralSound: ok you see here, he's in the folder of the source code and he's using the program 'patch' to apply his patch to that source code: "/tmp/r8169-6.017.00/src$ patch -p1 < r8169.patch" [00:37] VisceralSound: so you want to open up the terminal, browse to where the source code is, then run the above [00:37] pythonirc1011: ah so the same file anywhere on the destination? [00:37] Daftykins: Ohhh so he's using a program CALLED patch? so apt-get install patch? [00:37] VisceralSound: it'll probably already be installed [00:37] I'll check [00:38] phix: all files that are copies of each other should take only one file size space on my backed up drive [00:38] would anyone be able to tell me how i could go about installing the 3.8.0-17 kernel instead of the 3.8.0-19 currently installed? [00:38] patch is installed, if not build-essentials will install ut [00:38] exad: apt-get install linux-image-3.8.0-17... [00:38] pythonirc1011: use a file system that supports copy on write [00:39] exad: depends what architecture you want, 32 or 64-bit [00:39] btfs i think it is called is one, or zfs [00:39] exad: (as to the exact package name) [00:39] btrfs [00:39] phix: I do not control the file system [00:39] Daftykins: searching the "search programs installed" thing (new to Ubuntu) and nothing with patch comes up except for the text file I downloaded to replace something [00:40] VisceralSound: if you're in a terminal, if you just type "patch" on its' own what does it do? do you get output from the program 'patch' or an error? [00:40] oh... that easy??? [00:40] 64 bit [00:40] exad: yeah, although if it's older than your current kernel it won't automatically be the one it chooses at boot [00:40] pythonirc1011: or you can use --delete option with rsync, so it will ensure the destination looks exactly like thhr source, deleting files from destination that doesnt exist in source [00:40] thnx daftykins [00:40] Daftykins: JUST typing patch in terminal does nothing, just goes to the next line [00:41] ah so i would have to change something to make it the default or can i uninstall the other kernel? [00:41] phix: Machine A: dir1/ (file1.txt=10G) dir2/(file1.txt=10G) on destination, my backup should take at most 10G space. [00:42] pythonirc1011: the same file exists in both places? [00:42] VisceralSound: i take it you've tried just jumping straight for the full patch command the guy says then? [00:42] umm i think there is a hardlink patch or option for rsync but it assumes the destination filesystem supports hardlinking [00:43] phix: yes [00:43] I found the channel I was asking for: #ubuntu-hardened [00:43] so you want to backup hardlinked files? [00:43] Daftykins: like doing the realtek driver file in command and make installing it or? sorry for not being well "educated" on linux commands yet. [00:44] phix: I want to find all files replicated on machine A. Back them up correctly on machine B without using space [00:44] VisceralSound: so right now, you've got the source code downloaded and extracted into a folder yeah? [00:44] or files that are the same but dont use thr same inodes? [00:44] phix: they are the same files in size and content. They might or might not have smae inodes [00:44] Daftykins: yes I have the realtek driver downloaded directly from their website and extracted on my desktop [00:45] pythonirc1011: backup to /dev/null, that will use 0 space :p yeah i kniw what uou mean :) [00:45] VisceralSound: ok so you open a terminal, "cd ~/Desktop/" will change you to that folder, are you ok navigating folders at command line? [00:46] pythonirc1011: could you cleanup dupe files before you back it up? [00:46] daftykins: as in getting into the folder from terminal? I can get into the folder from it yeah [00:46] phix: nope. These files belong to different users [00:46] or use dar or similar first then tranfer the dar files ovet? [00:46] hmmmm no package found linux-image-3.8.0-17-generic [00:46] VisceralSound: ok, so you want to be in .../r8169-6.017.00/src/ [00:47] could it have been taken down' [00:47] exad: sudo apt-get update && apt-cache search linux-image-3.8.0-17 [00:47] !info linux-image-3.8.0-17-generic [00:47] Package linux-image-3.8.0-17-generic does not exist in raring [00:47] daftykins: so after inputting the name of the folder do a /src/? [00:47] dar will check if the file is a copy in more than one dir and only save it once [00:48] VisceralSound: in the terminal you want to be *inside* Desktop/r8169-6.017.00/src/ [00:48] phix: never used dar, but will look into it [00:48] anyone know what you would even call a program like cmatrix? [00:48] Chris_W_: a toy [00:48] daftykins: okay shoot [00:49] histo: haha.....yeah. but lets say one wanted to find similar programs, what would one search for? [00:49] VisceralSound: so where is the patch file you downloaded from that guy's site? is it in the Downloads folder or did you move it into there, beside the "r8169_n.c" file? [00:50] how do i get the head phones to work on a asus k55a laptop 12.04.2 x64 ed. [00:50] daftykins: I downloaded/extracted it to the desktop along with the realtek folder [00:50] pythonirc1011: it is like tar or zip but smarter [00:50] wilee-nilee, cool figured it out. ended up doing apt-get remove automake and apt-get install automake1.10 whew. wish it wouldn't have taken me so long to figure that out! lmao [00:51] Chris_W_: see if it's in the software center under a certain category [00:51] wilee-nilee, cool figured it out. ended up doing apt-get remove automake and apt-get install automake1.10 whew. wish it wouldn't have taken me so long to figure that out! lmao [00:51] browserify is a command that returns a stream (if I understood). can I do something like this? echo "" > my_file.html ... is that possible? What's the right syntax? [00:51] whoa sorry [00:51] VisceralSound: ok so you can see where 'r8169.patch' is? [00:51] daftykins: yessir [00:52] VisceralSound: so you just want to be *in* the folder so you can see "r8169_n.c" then run his command "patch -p1 < /path/to/r8169.patch" [00:53] daftykins: that seems to have created a list of some sort.. still cant install the kernel though [00:54] exad: it'll be telling you which are available, pick one :D [00:54] exad: pastebin them if you're unsure [00:55] Well reinstalled Ubuntu and it looks like it uses nvidia-304-updates driver [00:55] netlar1: running the nvidia settings program should give you version info pretty easily [00:56] here's my pastebin daftykins; http://paste.ubuntu.com/5649661/ what did those commands do if you dont mind me asking? [00:56] daftykins: thanks [00:57] daftykins: does not show the correct display device [00:57] exad: apt-get update = update your local list of the available software packages [00:57] exad: apt-cache search = search for packages called in these lists [00:57] ohhh i see [00:57] Hey guys [00:58] I'm having trouble installing ubuntu onto my server -- was hoping you could help me out [00:58] how can i install a package and force it to ignore one of the dependencies? [00:58] exad: ah no what you pastebin'd was just it grabbing the list files. try running the second bit on its' own, if it gives nothing then no packages called that are available [00:58] daftykins: and it takes forever to reboot [00:58] netlar1: are you using multiple cards or something? [00:58] So the box has 3x 3TB drives -- I wanted to set these up in a software raid config -- so here's how I did it [00:59] just one nvidia geforce 8200 [00:59] yeah it seems none are available [00:59] ugh 3 disk RAID 5 :( such a bad idea [00:59] daftykins: inside the realtek driver folder I don't see the r8169_n.c in the folder, I'm guessing I'm doing it wrong? I did the "cd ~/Desktop/realtekfolder [00:59] /boot raid 1, across all three (500MB) /swap on all three (no raid) 1024 MB, remaining ~3TB, RAID5 [00:59] damnit. if i downgrade to 12.04 would that have an older kernel? [00:59] VisceralSound: you need to be inside 'src' inside that one too, if it exists? i think you might've downloaded a different file to what that guy did [00:59] Everything installed up to grub, which failed with no real error message -- just grub install failed [01:01] This is totally off topic but does anyone know if there is a 4chan channel in freenode? Or is it on another server? [01:02] can I use a ubuntu live disc to move a user profile on windows 8 to another physical drive [01:02] I found a fake in irc.cyberdynesystems.net [01:03] Lets say i install ubuntu 12.04 and then run the updates, will i end up back at 3.8.0-19 kernel? [01:03] Daftykins: let me try and download that driver and usb it to my desktop quick [01:03] VisceralSound: ok, i'll be back shortly, got a couple of things to do [01:04] cjae i doubt he'll be able to log in though [01:04] cjae: no because win8 won't know you've done it. are you just trying to move where that user's "Pictures" etc are kept? [01:05] daftykins: well pretty much the entire profile, its on ssd, so I would like to move to the storage hdd [01:06] daftykins: found a few how tos but just checking other optiions [01:06] i'd use windows utilities [01:07] ones audit mode that looks problematic, the other is symlinks [01:07] cjae: no point going that far. you want the storage folders elsewhere, but not the app data. just move the rest of them [01:07] hello everybody [01:07] cjae: as in, cut and paste [01:07] caiyue: hi [01:08] daftykins: why not app data [01:08] 'cause you want that on SSD to be quick [01:08] :) [01:08] ya [01:09] ok [01:09] After running xubuntu dual boot for a few weeks, I've gone ahead and installed it as the only OS on all 3 of my machines. My desktop has 2x 1TB drives I would like to use as network storage.. [01:09] Would Samba still be the best choice, since I don't require windows compatability? [01:10] shaunlewis: yeah [01:10] shaunlewis: assuming it's a trusted LAN and you want speed [01:11] Nobody? Is there a way to wrap text around the output of a command? [01:11] Daftykins: okay so I'm inside the src folder do I do "patch -p1" and then /path/to/r8169.patch or something [01:11] VisceralSound: yup [01:11] Thanks. Generally, what do you recommend I format the drives as? They are NTFS at the moment, and I am in the process of moving the files to another drive for the moment. [01:12] shaunlewis: EXT4, but only if you're never ever ever going to want to read those drives from a windows system ever again [01:12] daftykins: hmmm do I need to do cd or anything? typing straight patch -p1 just puts it on a new line, then the other command does the same thing I must be doing it wrong [01:13] patch -p1 < file [01:14] VisceralSound: what zeep said, it's only one single line you're typing [01:14] Well, since I no longer own any windows machines, I guess that's a safe assumption, but isn't the point of samba that windows machines can use the shares on a linux lan? or have I missed the point.. [01:14] VisceralSound: "patch -p1 < /type/here/the/path/to/where/the/patch/is" [01:16] daftykins: okay got it, it says "patching file r8169_n.c" and is back to the src command line, does that mean it finished? === wesley is now known as vamushka [01:17] VisceralSound: yep, now type "sudo make" [01:17] you should get no errors [01:18] is there a way for blacklisting a wifi card in network manager? [01:19] crane: you can just refer to it in /etc/network/interfaces then NM can't use it [01:19] but yeah i'm sure there's a better way [01:20] daftykins: now it goes further but I got this near the end? Make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-3.8.0-19-generic' INSTALL /home/anthony/Desktop/r8169-6.017.00/src/r8169.ko Can't read private key DEPMOD 3.8.0-19-generic make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-3.8.0-19-generic' make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/anthony/Desktop/r8169-6.017.00/src' [01:20] Anybody out there? [01:20] VisceralSound: hmm no idea on that one - post that output back to that askubuntu [01:20] maybe this client isn't working? [01:20] snickers: nobody here but us ghosts [01:21] YAY [01:21] I like ghosts [01:21] so is there anyway to force ignore a package dependency? [01:22] I have a NAS question: Is there a web based media server to make an Ubuntu NAS look nice to the spouse like the Qnap interface? [01:22] well i'll be damned grub module i wrote works properly first try :) yay now i can have 3 different versions of windows all encrypted with TrueCrypt + ubuntu on 4th partition quad boot system all on 1 drive :D [01:22] opencloud ;p [01:22] *owncloud [01:23] AsSlowAsHell: is your nickname based on how badly all those encrypted installs run? ;) [01:23] I installed OwnCloud on my Ubuntu server and the interface is very….sparce [01:23] Maybe I missed a step? [01:23] Just looks like a file share via HTM [01:23] snickers: why would a spouse be accessing a NAS interface? [01:23] daftykins, no my nickname is an ancient relic from when I had a 14.4k modem and I kept picking screennames that were taken, each attempt resulting in like a whole two minute wait to load the page to tell me it was taken haha... or at least it felt that long [01:24] She needs to store pics and music [01:24] AsSlowAsHell: :D [01:24] stream music and movies [01:24] snickers: why doesn't she just have a mapped drive / mounted drive to it? [01:24] daftykins, also aww come on encryption doesn't slow anything down. especially not with hardware AES [01:24] AsSlowAsHell: ah sure drives have hardware AES, depends if things can take advantage of that though :D [01:25] I tried mapping her to a SMB share, wasn't easy ennough [01:25] daftykins, no the intel processors starting Sandy Bridge have hardware AES on chip, not on the drives [01:25] snickers: should be [01:25] She is more the: go to URL, push bigreen button, select movie [01:26] i fail to see how you'd prefer to provide a web UI versus browsing folders and clicking [01:26] anyone know how to monitor one network traffic for one program? [01:26] iotop ? [01:26] ok so i found some older 3.8.0 kernel debs. installed them but had issues with linux headers. can someone look at it and give me an idea as to how to fix it? http://paste.ubuntu.com/5649733/ thanks :( [01:27] Daftykins: while I have you here, any idea of the 13.04 dist. has issues with 7800 series AMD graphics cards? [01:27] now i need to make a grub module that lets the currently running os tell grub (probably by stashing a single byte wherever i can cram it in the first 64 sectors that looks unused) what to boot on next bootup, so I don't have to select the OS myself in the grub bootup menu heh [01:27] VisceralSound: haven't used any new ubuntus i'm afraid === matthew is now known as Guest82129 [01:28] exad: "sudo apt-get install linux-headers-3.8.0-030800-generic" work?

[01:28] Media Tomb? [01:29] Anyone using any of them? [01:29] exad: kinda risky installing from debs, are you really sure going for a specific kernel is the best plan for whatever problem you've got? [01:30] Daftykins: could this be the "can't ready private key thing? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys [01:31] well i cant go without sound and neither 3.8.0-18 nor 3.8.0-19 will allow me to have sound through hdmi [01:31] VisceralSound: i don't think so, i'm really not experienced in that area though [01:31] (compiling from source) [01:32] question for anyone, i want to switch over to a new desktop environment (awesome) but the login prompt isn't showing the option to switch, how do I set the option?

I just installed Ubuntu 13.04 on a new laptop, and had it install proprietary drivers for my video card. When I went to jockey however, I saw that the driver was not listed as being installed, however. So, I installed one, and now don't have direct rendering. Video card is an nVidia GeForce 650M. Thanks in advance. [02:39] kkerwin, did you install the generic driver or the nvidia one? [02:39] utfans05: In OS install, I'm not sure. It just installed one, and I had direct rendering out of the box. I figured that it was the generic driver when I did not see it listed in jockey as being installed. [02:40] utfans05: So, after I installed the driver from jockey, I lost direct rendering. [02:40] kkerwin, if you want the most recent stable nvidia drivers in a terminal type sudo apt-get install nvidia-current [02:40] kkerwin, once thats done restart [02:42] utfans05: Ok. Thank you; I'll give that a try. [02:42] kkerwin, let me know how it goes [02:42] kkerwin, ill help you more if you need it [02:42] utfans05: Thank you; I will. [02:44] Anyone put Ubuntu on a chromebook yet? [02:45] not yet but im putting it on an old ass dell mini here in a few mints [02:45] minutes* [02:45] an old ass-dell? what's that? [02:45] its one of the first dell mini's that came out [02:46] utfans05: No joy; still lack direct rendering. [02:46] kkerwin... really... [02:46] anyone using lucid+nginx 1.4.1? [02:47] kkerwin, is the driver not showing in jockey? [02:47] utfans05: Let me check ... [02:47] utfans05: Negative. It says that no proprietary drivers are installed on the system. [02:48] utfans05: lsmod | grep nvidia shows no results. [02:48] kkerwin, thats really odd... its the exact same way i install my drivers all the time. [02:49] well this is 13.04, you can expect certain things to act up [02:49] sudo apt-get install nvidia-current says that it's already the current version. My guess is that the Xorg.conf is not yet updated? [02:49] true... but still.... [02:49] kkerwin, maybe? [02:50] utfans05: Hrm. It's been at least five years since I had to manually edit one of those ... [02:50] kkerwin, i did it a few days ago but i had to look up how to do it properly... im running 2 560ti's so i wanted to enable sli [02:50] utfans05: Hrm. Where is the file now? [02:51] kkerwin, /etc/X11 [02:51] utfans05: No, no it isn't ... [02:51] kkerwin, im in 12.04... thats where its kept for me [02:51] * kkerwin scratches his head ... [02:51] yeah.... [02:52] kkerwin, do a locate xorg.conf in terminal [02:52] utfans05: Everything is in /usr/share ... [02:53] yeah, one of the places where a xorg.conf is kept..... [02:53] utfans05: Hrm. But, no actual xorg.conf file. [02:53] I don't think you'd find one... [02:53] might have to generate it [02:53] you might... but it should have autogenerated [02:53] like in 12.10, there is no xorg.conf file like there used to be in old versions [02:53] Ok, Ubuntu has coddled me. How do I generate one again? [02:53] * Ari-Yang shrugs [02:53] google, I forget [02:54] Ari-Yang: Cool. Thank you. [02:54] yeah... i dont remember either [02:55] xorg.conf? try /etc/X11 [02:55] it wasnt ther for him [02:55] ....I think he did that [02:55] its like it didnt get generated when he installed [02:55] ok, installed current? [02:55] Apparently I have to quit the X server. Run X -configure as root. Brb. [02:55] yup [02:55] kk [02:55] yeah [02:55] that's it iirc [02:56] i had to look that up cause mine has always auto generated [02:56] th envidia installer has its own flavor [02:56] betrayd, on new versions of ubuntu, there won't be a xorg.conf file like in older versions. 12.10 for e.g. [02:56] waity [02:56] nvidia-xconfig [02:56] utfans05, what version you on? [02:56] 12.04LTS [02:56] ah [02:56] betrayd: Oh, alright. I'll give that a shot. [02:56] Couldn't get X to stop. [02:56] <-- rookie to Ubuntu, but any idea if I can do this in Ubuntu 13.04? I guess my driver issue is I don't have the right kernel or something? and someone said this was a solution in a different topic sudo zypper in kernel-devel sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux /lib/modules/2.6.34.7-0.5-default/build [02:57] yeah iirc there should naturally be one for 12.04 [02:57] well I'm off, gl to everyone [02:57] cya [02:57] Hrm. I think that command did it. Thanks betrayd! [02:57] yeah, every version of ubuntu ive run since 9.04 has had one [02:57] watch where it got saved! [02:58] bec. sometimes if one existed nvidia will make it somewhere else first [02:58] and you have to place it in /etc/X11 [02:58] you're welcome kkimlabs [02:58] yeah i think it put it in his /usr/etc instead of /etc/X11 [02:58] lols phail [02:59] the sorry piece here is sometimes you never get to see nvidia Xserver config GUI because it goes to root/admin menu [03:00] if hes sudo he would have seen it... unless he tried to go to it as a usr [03:01] Ok. Now I am running at like 400x300 resolution ... [03:01] kkerwin go into your nvidia Xserver config and set your res [03:02] utfans05: Looks like I'm still not using the nvidia driver. [03:02] WHAT?!?! [03:02] china here I can't visit sites like youtube ,facebook,,,, does someone tell me how to do ,can you give me software base on ubuntu,debian or windows ?thanks [03:02] * utfans05 scratches his head [03:02] kkerwin: the Xorg.0.log will tell you which one it's using [03:02] the first few lines with a == [03:03] nvidia will fall to framebuffer if your xorg didn't make sense [03:05] Going to try restarting the X server. [03:05] Ok ... [03:05] Ctrl-Alt-Bkspc restarts X server, right? [03:05] kkerwin, its supposed to [03:05] Crap [03:05] Hey. Anyone got php5 xdebug up and working on 12.10? [03:06] * kkerwin mutters something about not fixing something that's working under his breath. === CookieNinja is now known as TommehM [03:07] * betrayd still has his ka.pl script that will killemall [03:07] GinTonicool, what exactly are you asking, if ubuntu uses debian or windows based packages? [03:07] hi, is there a way to make the unity window borders smaller? takes up a lot of screen space (more like openbox size window borders [03:08] syntac: u can auto hide it [03:08] Does anyone know where a "PWD" is in my Realrek rtl8188CE driver is? a guy said "I figure out my problem. My PWD had a space in it, hence the make command though that PCE-N15 was a target and not part of the PATH name." but I don't know where PWD is [03:08] i have the side bar hidden [03:08] penos, i mean like title bar with the x, -, and maximize button [03:08] ? [03:09] penos, like this: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3623/3399700464_c9faa5e484_o.png [03:09] VisceralSound: present working directory [03:11] the one you cd (change dir) to [03:11] utfans05,i'm using firefox or chrome. can you tell me how can i visit facebook ,youtube,twiter,,,etc [03:11] * kkerwin grumbles loudly. [03:11] ql [03:12] GinTonicool, you can use a proxy server that may allow you to get to them, im unsure of which one you should use as I do not need to use them [03:12] Ok. Still running at 640x480. [03:12] kkerwin, thats really odd..... [03:12] kkerwin, ive never run into any issues with video drivers [03:12] betrayd: Any idea how I access that? sorry I'm new to Ubuntu/Linux is it within the driver folder for my realtek folder? or [03:13] utfans05: I even generated the xorg.conf file that nvidia-xconfig generated. [03:13] deleted the file that it generated, rather. [03:13] hrm.. [03:13] im stuck [03:13] ive never had any major video issues, anyone that can help kkerwin out? [03:14] Well, I didn't delete the other files that it generated prior, but backed up with successive runs of nvidia-xconfig. Maybe it fell back to one of those that still wasn't working ... [03:14] utfans05, you mustbe do not know ,even those proxy servers can not been opened in china ! [03:14] GinTonicool, then im not sure how to help you out. sorry [03:15] GinTonicool: What about Tor?

[03:21] axisys_: you can probably ask in #perl. they are helpful there [03:22] anyone who knows unity? [03:22] johnjohn101: they suggested cpanm .. but ubuntu might have a pkg solution [03:22] betrayd: so IE: cd ~/Desktop/ dont leave echo out [03:22] then go to your ~ & echo $PWD again [03:23] johnjohn101: after all ubuntu pkg is recommended method for one perl module.. not sure how to do it for multiple [03:23] penos: Is there any way to check if the driver was properly installed or not?? [03:23] kkerwin ok do you remember where the xorg.conf was generated [03:23] johnjohn101: probably a #ubuntu-server question [03:24] axisys_: i always use synaptic to install perl modules.

[03:30] utfans05, about a year or two ago... it has nothing to do with my bios though it has to do with this full disk encryption i think [03:31] axisys_: you can put multiple packages on the apt-get line [03:31] none of my hardware is detected until the password is supplied [03:31] crackerjackz, even if the disk is encrypted bios has to see it in order to boot from it, the information on the disk is encrypted but the MBR is now [03:31] now=not [03:33] utfans05, what do you think i should do? this is the only hard drive i have [03:34] crackerjackz, at a minimum try getting into the bootmenu when your pc first starts up and direct it to boot from the usb stick [03:34] what if i take the hard drive out and try to boot from USB? then mount the hard drive would that work? [03:34] crackerjackz: go to bios and change the boot order [03:34] hi, any bumblebee users 'ere? I had terrible experience with bumblebee and 12.10, after install, it dropped me onto the console and xorg wont start no matter what .. has anything changed in 13.04? i have a dell xps 15" L502x [03:34] crackerjackz, no because then the bios wouldnt see the drive at all and youd have no place to install the image [03:34] penos, can't.. bios doesn't detect my hardware [03:35] hello all, I have no sound in ubuntu 12.10 0n hp envy m6 laptop. when i go into alsamixer there are no bars and the "F" buttons dont function as they are listed. [03:35] utfans05, im saying boot from a live usb and use it to decrypt the hard drive [03:35] johnjohn101: only if I can map the perl module name to the pkg name for each one first [03:35] crackerjackz: did you overclock perhaps? I sped up pci slot and it wouldn't recognize my hard drive [03:35] Hello everyone. I just installed Ubuntu 12.10 from a dvd copy on my Compaq Presario CQ56-219WM. Immediately after finishing setup, I ran apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, and apt-get distro-upgrade before updating to 13.04 via command line. After the update, my wifi (Ralink RT5390) no longer stays connected to my WPA2 network. It will connect, then immediately disconnect and ask for my key again, [03:35] which I have verified multiple times. [03:35] johnjohn101, nah [03:36] all of my hardware is recognized once i give it a password [03:36] crackerjackz, if you boot from a live image you can reinstall or install the new os that you want to [03:36] but not until [03:36] ihave been all over ubuntu forums and tried many fixes to no resolution [03:36] any help? [03:36] utfans05, but how do i decrypt the hard drive? [03:36] if i can decrypt the hard drive then i can install a new os on it [03:36] crackerjackz, i do not know, have you done any google searches to try to find a fix? [03:36] yes [03:37] axisys_: finding 109 packages should be hard. [03:37] johnjohn101: bingo! [03:37] most of what i have found only involves the home directory being encrypted.. lubuntu encrypted my entire disk though not just one directory [03:38] crackerjackz, if you can boot into a live cd you a fire up gparted and reformat the drive [03:38] axisys_: i don't believe there is a good way to map a cpan file to an ubuntu package. [03:39] i think maybe this will work... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2132516 [03:39] hello all, I have no sound in ubuntu 12.10 0n hp envy m6 laptop. when i go into alsamixer there are no bars and the "F" buttons dont function as they are listed. [03:40] crackerjackz, it may [03:40] crackerjackz, do you want to backup the data on the drive or just put a new os? [03:40] utfans05, you can't just format the drive... it's encrypted [03:40] i wish it were that simple [03:40] crackerjackz, id be willing to bet that if you fire up a live cd and go into gparted you can wipe that drive === sirriffsalot|afk is now known as sirriffsalot [03:42] utfans05, hopefully you are right. i'm gonna have to unplug the hard drive first before itll let me boot from usb.. i have this sata to usb thing im gonna use to plug the hard drive up to my computer [03:43] utfans05: Ok. Got it back to a decent resolution. [03:43] crackerjackz: try dd command to overwrite. did you try writing a new partition table? [03:43] kkerwin, what did you have to do ? [03:43] utfans05: Still lack direct rendering. [03:43] axisys_: i use to use cpan on suse with pretty good success but use packages on ubuntu [03:43] kkerwin thats reall odd [03:43] utfans05: Delete the xorg.conf, and then my ~/.kde directory, as it set a resolution as well. [03:43] duhamel, i can't because the partitions are in use [03:43] kkerwin, how old is this install? [03:43] i'll brb [03:43] utfans05: One day. [03:44] utfans05: I'd prefer not to have to do a fresh install, but I might just have to. [03:44] johnjohn101: not when you have 109 modules to install [03:44] axisys_: is this a one time thing? [03:44] kkerwin, thats what im thinking, maybe grab the iso straight from ubuntu.com and see if that works [03:44] johnjohn101: yes [03:44] utfans05: Something I've noticed ... [03:44] utfans05: lsmod | grep nvidia shows nothing. [03:44] utfans05: So, I modprobe nvidia. [03:44] if you use a live distro you should be able to mount and unmount even if it is encrypted [03:45] utfans05: Then, lsmod | grep nvidia still shows nothing ... [03:45] kkerwin, thats weird [03:45] kkerwin, im really unsure why xorg.conf wasnt there in the first place [03:45] adrian knoppix or parted magic [03:46] wasn't where? [03:46] utfans05: A thought; an i7 is a 64-bit processor. I grabbed the 64-bit iso yesterday for the install. But, that was labeled as **amd**64 === ThatOneDude_e is now known as ThatOneDude [03:46] kkerwin, the reason its labeled amd64 is because amd created the 64 bit architecture [03:46] utfans05: That's what I figured; so I grabbed the right iso? [03:47] kkerwin, yeah [03:48] utfans05: Any idea why modprobe is failing to load the nvidia .ko? [03:48] kkerwin, no clue [03:48] kkerwin, does your motherboard have a built in graphics card? [03:48] kkerwin, im now thinking it may be pulling from that [03:48] utfans05: It's an i7, so it has sandy bridge. Yes. [03:49] axisys_: my opinion is that you'll be ok with using cpan on ubuntu. not the prefered way but all you are doing is duplication of compiles which was done to create the package. other choice is to open up synaptic, choose the perl section and start selecting all of the modules you need. [03:49] kkerwin, yeah i think thats whats messing it up, im not sure how to fix that tho [03:49] there are i7 ivy bridge... no..? [03:50] ivy bridge also has i7 [03:50] exad: You might be right. It's a third generation i7, and each prior generation had an ivy/sandy/etc bridge gpu. [03:50] Looking through /var/log/Xorg.0.log right now; confirmed: this is an ivy bridge. [03:51] [ 21.199] (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found) [03:51] Wha? [03:51] kkerwin, so in theory if you disable the onboard video and force it to the pcie card it should work [03:52] kkerwin: scan for == [03:52] tells you which xorg.conf it used [03:53] betrayd: It's using an entire directory ... [03:53] (==) Using system config directory "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d" [03:53] thats not the generated one then [03:53] betrayd: The generated one caused an additional problem: it dropped screen resolution down to 600x480. [03:54] betrayd: And still lacked direct rendering. [03:54] and then, go to nvidia server settings [03:54] fix it there [03:55] Okay, so... no HDMI sound on Ubuntu 12.10. pavucontrol shows that sound IS playing... but it's not coming out of my TV. It used to work, and suddenly it... doesn't. I tried using the last kernel version, no luck. I'm on Intel. What's the next step? [03:55] betrayd: When I did that with the generated xorg.conf, the nvidia server said that it didn't find a compatible nvidia card. [03:55] you moved the generated one to /etc/X11 [03:55] ? [03:56] betrayd: It did it for me, but yes. [03:56] Running nvidia-detector does not detect a card ... [03:56] there is an Apply and OK button in nvidia server settings GUI [03:57] you can set resolutions on GUI itself [03:57] betrayd: Ok. I'm going to set it like that and try it again, then. [03:57] Be right back. [03:58] Good day. Im having a problem when i try to boot normally it wont boot it will keep freazing on the purple screen but when i do it on recovery mode it boot i tried to fix it on the recovery but still it didnt work [03:59] !blackscreen [03:59] yea betrayd [04:01] Ok. I ran nvidia-xconfig, and the resolution is now very low again. Also, went into nvidia server settings, and it still says that I do not have a driver running. [04:01] there is a howto for that screen, ubottu knows LinuxNewbish i just don't know of you head to forums or where the fixits are placed [04:02] (==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" [04:02] ok go through the log and see what resolutions are ok [04:02] and which were rejected and why [04:03] sorry betrayd , do you mean i go and check the fourms the fixs are there ? [04:03] betrayd: Here's my Xorg.0.log: http://pastebin.com/tNhUCHD6 === evilbug_ is now known as evilbug [04:04] i would or google them LinuxNewbish until one of the guys return [04:05] thanks mate , will do betrayd [04:05] kkerwin: got to fix your xorg.conf, see the last line [04:05] betrayd: Moment ... [04:06] it is pretty self-explanatory [04:06] you don't need to paste [04:06] jus tlook at it [04:06] see where the errors begin, WW - warnings first then EE hard errors [04:07] betrayd: http://pastebin.com/rvMr3bNH [04:10] betrayd: Do you have any suggestions on how to fix the xorg.conf? [04:11] the log, see where the first WW warnings are then it shows hard errors with EE [04:11] they aren't in your pastebin [04:12] betrayd: Ah, I understand. [04:12] LinuxNewbish, You familiar with nomodeset a low graphic boot. [04:12] just formatted an external drive with gparted and I can only create folders and files as root? why's that? [04:13] no wilee-nilee [04:13] betrayd: http://pastebin.com/mu0e8fzK [04:13] betrayd: The above is the entire log. [04:13] !nomodeset | LinuxNewbish [04:13] LinuxNewbish: 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 [04:13] <[deXter]> zeep, Which filesystem? Permissions matter for ext file systems [04:14] LinuxNewbish, I'm just guessing it may be a graphic problem. [04:14] [deXter], ext4. i redid it with gnome-disks and it's now writable. [04:14] <[deXter]> zeep, Yep if you do it within the OS then the right permissions are assigned [04:15] how would i do the same with gparted? it seems to need to run as root [04:15] thanks wilee-nilee :)will try it now [04:15] probably need to add myself to a group or something [04:16] zeep: ummm yeah root or add yoursepf to the disk group [04:18] disk group didnt work [04:18] i have another question, if you installed Ubuntu beside another Linux OS will it overwrite the swap partition ? [04:18] kkerwin: see line 13 explains all how to read [04:18] but then you get line 45 [04:18] zeep: you need to lig out and back in again [04:18] i used newgrp in term [04:19] kkerwin: no mouse, no keyboard [04:19] then close term and rropen it [04:19] newgrp reloads with me in group [04:19] still needs root :/ [04:19] betrayd: So, why am I now able to type and move my mouse? [04:19] i dont know how secure adding myself to root would be [04:19] kkerwin: gui butlow rez? [04:20] betrayd: Yes. [04:20] a fallback is active now [04:20] not the one you wanted to happen [04:20] but why did it say hotplug is on [04:21] kkerwin: are you having trouble booting up? [04:21] netlar: Negative. === wicked is now known as zz_wicked [04:24] zeep: do you mean admin group, to have sudo rights? [04:24] qin, i have sudo rights. just wondering if i could setup gparted to run like gnome-disks (without root) [04:24] betrayd: Any insights? [04:25] zeep: why would it? what purpose? [04:25] qin, so i wouldn't need to modify permissions on newly formatted partitions by hand [04:26] zeep: add the users you want access to disks to disk griup [04:26] then reboot / login lig [04:26] ogg [04:26] gnight all! [04:26] ooops touch pad fail [04:26] idk why it's picking up /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d when nvidia's supposed to be standalone [04:26] kkerwin: ^ [04:27] phix, isn't 'newgrp - disk' the same as relogging in? [04:27] provided i launch it via the terminal [04:28] betrayd: Maybe if I move that somewhere else, if there is somehing in that directory that is conflicting, I won't have a problem? [04:28] kkerwin wait maybe when you *did move the nvidia generated xorg, and left those other pasts in /usr/share/xorg.confd [04:28] parts* [04:28] kkerwin: Try 'sudo nvidia-xconfig -a' and restart your X11. [04:28] the originals were left in their /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d [04:28] zeep: nope, you need yo open a new terminal and even then it coulld still be cached depending on your setup [04:29] My CRON jobs have stopped running. Where's the first place I should look? [04:29] dankest: see if crond is running [04:29] betrayd: I don't think that anything in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d was affected by nvidia-xconfig. [04:29] if not start it [04:29] phix, but it says in the man page 'If the optional - flag is given, the user's environment will be reinitialized as though the user had logged in,' [04:29] betrayd: Do you agree with lasers suggestion? [04:29] phix, anyway, i'll just relogin and try it out later. not an urgent matter :) [04:30] zeep: ok [04:30] kkerwin: then we move back a step, but he might know better [04:30] phix, thanks for helping [04:30] anytime [04:30] 14:29 < phix> zeep: add the users you want access to disks to disk griup [04:30] that's insanely wrong and dangerous [04:30] kkerwin: go ahead and good luck [04:31] nevyn, how come? my account is the main account [04:31] i've noticed that gstreamer doesnt handle slightly corrupted videos as well as VLC or Media Player Classic do on windows. Is the linux version of VLC as robust or is it strictly a limit of linux codecs ? [04:31] zeep: because the disk group can overwrite the physical disk containing / [04:32] which is to say. it's effectivly the same as make your uid 0 [04:32] nevyn: he wanted to let uaers use gparted on disks, of course their are risks involed in doing that whether you use sudo or group permissioms [04:32] err correction.. i guess its the "parole" media player.. and its telling me i have a gstreamer backend error [04:32] i'm only adding myself [04:33] well wilee-nilee if a graphic problem then nomodeset wont help me correct ? [04:33] nevyn: the safest answer wiuld be not uto use gparted in the first place [04:33] Anyone good with Ubuntu One? I have a directory which is not syncing on one machine, even though it says it's up to date. [04:33] Back where we were after that. [04:33] zeep: if you have sudo access just uae that [04:33] use* [04:34] yeah i know, but it defeats my original purpose lol [04:34] excuse my spelling, i hate touchpads [04:34] phix: no. the safest answer is to change the group of the specific disks you want users to have access to using a udev rule [04:35] Going to try renaming /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d [04:35] kkerwin: "lsmod | grep nv" -- Grabbed any nvidia or nouveau? [04:35] nevyn: either way it works and he is only user on box, i dont see an issue [04:35] lasers: Nothing. [04:36] zeep: whats the original purpose? [04:36] Brb. [04:36] do it without entering a paassword? [04:37] if so you can configure sudo not to prompt you [04:37] phix, when i format a partition with gnome-disks it sets the perms to my account, whereas gparted sets it to root. just saves a step of chowning the directory after if i could setup gparted the same way [04:37] phix: preventing damage to the system by a misstype is worth doing. [04:38] nevyn: yes [04:38] nevyn: on a productiom system i would agree with you [04:38] sudo have 15(?)min period. -- The tool might use sudo/gksu and not mentioning it. [04:38] zeep: so? uae chown [04:38] use* [04:38] yeah im just gonna do that [04:38] not worth the trouble heh [04:39] write a script [04:39] :) === jack is now known as Guest19902 [04:43] Hi! I installed 13.04 and flash isn't working. Any suggestions what i can do to get it working? [04:44] aakka: your flash isnt working? you have a caMera on it? [04:44] aakka, how did you install it? [04:44] I figured it would be installed when I installed 13.04. === sirriffsalot is now known as sirriffsalot|afk [04:45] in the software center it shows installed [04:45] aakka, install flashplugin-installer [04:45] i dont know if the restricted option on the installer includes flash [04:45] aakka: ah that flash [04:46] i figured that's what he meant. maybe i'm wrong too hah [04:46] says already newest version zeep [04:46] no no you seem right :) i just had abrain fart, no idea what he was referring yo [04:47] aakka, did you close and reopen your browser? [04:47] yes [04:47] to [04:47] what browser? firefox? [04:47] zeep: many times, yes firefox [04:48] ok, hmmmm not sure 1) i use chrome 2) i use 12.04 still [04:48] it should work without problems. i just installed a fresh copy of xubuntu and use firefox and it works fine [04:48] does google chrome work on 13.04 yet? i haven't tried since launch day, i'm still using chromium [04:48] I tried to install chrome but it is giving an error! [04:48] acoleman1981, firefox works well [04:48] aakka, no flash works or just some sites? for example youtube [04:49] i like firefox too, i'm just a diehard google fan lol [04:49] I installed chromium and it doesn't work either [04:49] i have been using chromium since launch day [04:49] for sure not youtube [04:49] i switched back to firefox because they seem to care more about privacy [04:49] acoleman1981, why is that? [04:49] works fine, what issues are you having [04:49] acoleman1981, google chrome was kickin firefox's butt [04:49] flash crases when using chromium [04:49] acoleman1981, not any more though [04:49] when trying to watch youtube vids [04:49] just have, i love android on my phone, of course it's rooted, and i have a dual boot win8pro and ubuntu setup but i never use windows anymore [04:50] that's true with all the enhancements they are making to chrome it is getting noticeably slower [04:50] chromium is better since it doesn't have all the google spyware ;p [04:50] (an over exaggeration i know ) [04:51] zeep, chromium is missing a lot of the cool google chrome stuff though [04:51] zeep, so it seems pointless to use chromium when you can just use firefox [04:51] firemium for the win. [04:51] shankstaBytes, like what? only thing i know is flash [04:51] zeep, ya flash and audio/video codec stuff [04:51] shankstaBytes, that's exactly what happened. i went back to firefox haha [04:51] :D [04:51] i'm still quite new to linux distros and i'm still learning a lot, like i have a good question for everyone that has had me stuck, how do you install programs that don't install through the software center like kompozer for instance and how do i find out what dependencies that it requires? [04:51] I just went to adobe website to test flash and nothing is showing up. [04:51] is the flash that comes with chrome newer? [04:52] than 11.2 [04:52] install ubuntu restricted extras i think that's includes flash doesn't it [04:52] acoleman1981, sudo apt-get install programname [04:52] acoleman1981: Open a terminal. "aptitude search kompo" or "apt-cache search komp" [04:52] Does anyone know if there's a list of working wireless network cards for 13.04? I may just try and buy one that works vs trying to continue trouble shooting my Asus PCE-N15 [04:52] it's not in the default repositories [04:52] acoleman1981, alt+ctrl+t [04:52] VisceralSound, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported [04:53] zeep, did you play the firefox 3D shooter yet? [04:53] i know the basic cli commands like sudo apt-get and update and grub settings and all just when downloading a program and it's just in the downloads folder how do i install it [04:53] shankstaBytes, don't think so. have a link? [04:53] acoleman1981, double click it should open up software center [04:53] what is the command to install restricted extras? sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras? [04:53] acoleman1981, or use gedbi, or via command line 'dpkg -i ' [04:54] https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/demos/detail/bananabread [04:54] that's what i thought too, but it doesn't [04:54] *gdebi [04:54] its awesome [04:54] what is gedbi? [04:54] sorry if i'm getting on your all's nerves [04:54] gui installer tool for deb packages [04:54] nope, no worries :) [04:54] does it have to be a deb package? how can i tell [04:54] the software center should handle the deb install when you click on it [04:55] acoleman1981, if the package ends in '.deb' [04:55] hi [04:55] omg omg === BadLarry is now known as BadLarry_ [04:55] Okay so i've popped in here hella times with the most annoying network connection issue [04:55] typically you dont want to install programs with a .deb [04:55] it doesnt' nothing in the tar has deb listed anywhere [04:55] will this not work then? [04:55] use a ppa [04:55] hi [04:55] just solved it; switch from network-manager to wicd [04:55] alguien venezolano acá? [04:55] acoleman1981, what is it exactly? it's probably a source package [04:55] o que hable español? [04:56] so if anyone else comes here with some unsolvable network problem, recommend them to try that [04:56] hosu do i switc to terminal mode [04:56] how can i tell? it's just kompozer the web editing software [04:56] shankstaBytes, wow this is awesome! but it's slow for me [04:56] i was having a network issue and isolated it to deluge bittorrent, i have since then switched to qbittorrent and all works well for me now [04:57] i would be connected but couldn't load anything at all even with nothing downloading so bandwidth wasn't the issue [04:57] acoleman1981: I was having an issue where my wifi would drop ever 2 minutes [04:57] same here [04:57] i used a wired connection, i only tested wifi and it worked but wasn't connected for long at all [04:57] run [04:57] acoleman1981, the kompozer package is the program. just extract and run [04:57] zeep, what is your system specs?

[04:58] aakka, no [04:58] does it have stand alone flash? [04:58] How do i switch to the terminal chat [04:58] i haven't used opera in years on a computer [04:59] aakka, you can install flash from the software center [04:59] terminal chat? i have no idea [04:59] it is installed [04:59] yobi, irssi [04:59] yobi: irssi / weechat [04:59] but it is not working [04:59] yobi: irssi [04:59] okay, lemme try [04:59] irssi is cool but you can't scroll up in ti :( [04:59] acoleman1981, extract it, ./kompozer [04:59] aakka, are you using firefox because ubuntu works really good with firefox [04:59] s3b`: PageUp/PageDown. [05:00] acoleman1981, or kompozer-bin, not quite sure [05:00] i extracted it already but now it's just a folder in my downloads [05:00] ok [05:00] i'll look through the files [05:00] lasers: laptop doesn't have pageup/pagedown :P [05:00] acoleman1981, ok go into the folder and run the kompozer file which should be a script or binary [05:00] s3b`: You sure? Look hard. >_> [05:00] Also, i tried to use finch ( terminal jabber client ) but i couldn't get it to work. i wonder if they have a channel [05:00] just click on it and that's it [05:00] @s3b' Check the arrow keys [05:00] Shankstabytes: it is a fresh install of ubuntu 13.04, and flash is not working in firefox or chrome [05:00] lasers: it's a macbook pro retina with a smaller keyboard [05:01] aakka, you need to install it from the software center [05:01] aakka, install the "Ubuntu Restricted Extras" and "Adobe Flash" [05:01] s3b`: I think that's FN + Up/Down. Not sure. [05:01] there is a kompozer and kompozer-bin [05:01] acoleman1981, either is fine. i think one links to the other [05:01] lasers: hold on let me find out how to boot back into it first :P [05:02] shankstaBytes, adobe flash plugin is installed. I just installed the restricted extras. but i do not see adobe flash in the list. [05:02] i clicked it and it just opens in a text editor [05:02] aakka, just open the software center and type "flash" it should be the top in the list [05:02] aakka, do you have third party sources enabled? [05:02] yes that was installed. i just removed it and am reinstalling it. [05:02] acoleman1981, make sure it has execute permissions [05:02] aakka, that was an install option [05:02] s3b`: Sure. You can buy me a pizza if that works. :) [05:02] Hey what's the mount command for when you boot into recovery mood root console? mount -o -n ........ i forget [05:03] shankstaBytes, in firefox? [05:03] how do i do that? [05:03] acoleman1981, right click the file, properties [05:03] acoleman1981, or just run kompozer-bin === Rn0|AFK is now known as Rn0 [05:03] aakka, no, when installing the installer asked if you wanted restricted drivers and third party sources. Sources is like a place where apt-get looks for software [05:03] i've tried and it does nothing [05:04] acoleman1981: what are you trying to do? [05:04] shankstaBytes, i installed it through terminal. [05:04] install kompozer [05:04] a web editor [05:04] aakka, open the software center and go to "Edit -> Software Sources" click the check box that says "Software restricted by copyright or legal issues" [05:04] i just tried it. it's not finding 'libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0' [05:04] or do you know of any good ones in the software center [05:04] acoleman1981: a web editor? [05:05] like dreamweaver or microsoft expression web [05:05] aakka, also "Proprietary drivers for devices" [05:05] acoleman1981, komodo edit is a nice editor [05:05] is it in the software center? [05:05] acoleman1981: gedit [05:05] acoleman1981: jk, no i don't know any [05:05] no, but they provide a download that works OOTB [05:05] lol [05:05] i don't know html enough to just use a text editor, wish i did though [05:05] there's geany if you want something in the software center [05:05] shankstaBytes, that is all already checked. [05:06] oh [05:06] networking is my specialty [05:06] html is easy enough to learn :) [05:06] acoleman1981: there's some nice online template editors [05:06] where do i download komodo [05:06] http://www.activestate.com/komodo-edit [05:07] i've noticed a lot of editors are now including the source browser on the right. komodo, gedit [05:07] sublime [05:07] +1 for sublime [05:07] aakka, then you should see it in the software center when typing "flash" [05:07] aakka, then restart firefox [05:07] I got everyone at work using it :d [05:08] shankstaBytes, in firefox is shows i have shockwave flash 11.2 r202 installed [05:08] hey how should /etc/network/interfaces look like? right now its "auto l0 / iface l0 inet loopback" and my ubuntu won't boot [05:08] aakka, perfect then it should work [05:08] aakka, make sure all other flash plugins are disabled [05:09] s3b`: it should look like that [05:09] s3b`: that should not cause ubuntu to not boot. your problem is likely elsewhere. [05:09] SineTheCreator`: I changed it to eth0 to try to debug my internet, then wifi didn't exist at all, so I put it back to that and now it wno't boot. the only changes i made [05:10] shankstaBytes, when i go to http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html: I'm getting nothing [05:10] s3b`: in ubuntu eth0 and wlan0 are no longer handled by /etc/network/interfaces [05:10] they are handled by the network GUI instead [05:10] only the loopback device is handled by /interfaces now [05:10] gotcha [05:10] s3b`: l0 or lo ? [05:10] is it supposed to be an o? [05:11] if ubuntu is not booting it's probably not your networking, unless you have a corrupt kernel module somewhere? [05:11] uh yeah i think it is supposed to be lo [05:11] s3b`: auto lo \ iface lo inet loopback [05:11] shankstaBytes, the only thing i have installed is Adobe Flash Plugin, libquvi7, libquvi-scripts. Do i need the libquvi's? [05:11] lasers: hold on [05:11] aakka, i am running a fresh install and all i did is what i told you [05:11] aakka, firefox worked perfect after that [05:12] aakka, i installed it through the software center though [05:12] shankstaBytes, can you do a search for flash on the software center and then click show technical items in the bottom and tell me if you have the libquvi7's? [05:12] shankstaBytes, installed what? flashplugin? [05:13] shankstaBytes, the only thing i installed from the terminal was restricted extras [05:13] aakka, i installed the adobe flash player [05:13] does it say adobe flash plugin? [05:13] im not seeing an "adobe flash player" [05:14] aakka, yep [05:14] aakka, maybe you need to update your software sources [05:14] lasers: SineTheCreator`: I am not a smart man. that fixed it! [05:14] s3b`: Great. Two pizzas! ;) [05:14] Hello [05:14] That's weird that a typo in that file stopped a boot [05:14] shankstaBytes, can you tell me how?

[06:45] I tried sudo as well [06:45] param: i don't think you can ssh over http proxy [06:46] im installing,,,,,, ubuntu, i hav one HD. partioned into two.... its (for Windows) drive C: and drvie D: My drive D is for my back up files. I want to install ubuntu in my C: But I am afraid I might install it in D: I want fresh INstall Ubuntu taking away my Windows 7,,, [06:46] jundo: you want to get rid of windows? [06:46] Ben64 any trick of doing it ? [06:46] Ben64 yes [06:46] pastebin us the output of sudo fdisk -l [06:47] param: I'm using corkscrew to go through a web proxy when I ssh out. [06:47] bazhang: ralink 3070, but on zorin i think it uses rt2800usb driver and i think it uses same on ubuntu just on ubuntu i cant connect [06:47] jundo: you'll need to figure out which one is c and which one is d [06:47] rusty0101 can you guide me how to do that ? [06:47] jundo, pastebin us the output of sudo fdisk -l [06:48] Ben64, i now know which one is C and D.... [06:48] pastebin coming... [06:48] param: My own solution is to add an entry to my .ssh/config file for the host I am going to ssh to. [06:49] what entry you did in .ssh/config [06:49] param: something like 'host my.host.at.home.net' [06:49] bazhang: ralink 3070, but on zorin i think it uses rt2800usb driver and i think it uses same on ubuntu just on ubuntu i cant connect [06:50] param: then add a ProxyCommand line that looks like "ProxyCommand corkscrew proxyserver proxyserverport host port" [06:50] wait let me open config file [06:51] does full disk encryption create any noticable performance drawbacks? [06:51] zeep, if you forget your password you lose your files [06:52] if something goes wrong and you can't boot, it's difficult to fix too [06:52] crackerjackz: yeah i'm aware. but i'm talking about performance :) [06:52] param: So if it's a web proxy running on 2128, and I'm going to port 21358 on my home server, the line would look like "ProxyCommand corkscrew workproxy.work.com 2128 my.host.at.home.net 21358" [06:52] and on a regular sata drive, not an ssd [06:52] maybe i'll just do home encryption [06:53] zeep: yes, but depends on setup. In a raid6 setup where you expect 500+ megabyte/s throughput it will be noticable. On a laptop with a slow HDD, you won't notice much difference. [06:53] param: corkscrew is not installed by default, so you will have to 'sudo apt-get install corkscrew' as well. [06:53] okies [06:53] alright thanks SwedeMike [06:53] i believe certain encryption algorythms use up so much cpu.. and higher the key size in bits the more cpu it uses [06:54] hey, trying to get to my data through terminal and I hit a "Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop"; how can i access this? I su'd into my user and it's still encrypted [06:54] hey rusty it shows error Err http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/universe corkscrew i386 2.0-7 407 Proxy authentication required [06:55] i was actually watching a video on this morning most of it was babble but they brought up a few interesting points [06:55] param: there should be a tutorial on using corkscrew as well. If I remember it gives you recommendations on other commands you can set up for that port, including proxy authentication. I don't need it for the proxy I'm using, so I don't have those parameters set up. [06:56] zeep, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9stbwfmV8E [06:57] And for the sudo apt-get install, you probably need to set up authentication in your http_proxy environment variables as well. [06:57] (last for param:) [06:57] oh ghosh its all increasing my problem [06:58] crackerjackz: oo interesting. thanks for the video [07:00] param: one step at a time. You need the corkscrew package, so you need to get the proxy for controll center, or command-line set up. Should be similar to setting up the proxy for your web client, which I presume you've done. [07:00] how to get corksrew package [07:00] its showing proxy error there also [07:01] zeep, you should install haveged to create better entropy [07:02] and change the default keysize from 1024 to 4096 in the haveged.conf file [07:03] i need to learn more about encryption. i think for now i'll just encrypt an external hdd and put important data there [07:05] zeep, it helps your keys to be more random so that they can't be cracked... its for more than just what you're trying to do you should let haveged run for a while before you generate any type of encryption keys wether it be ssh, openssl [07:06] crackerjackz: yeah it's the first time i've heard of it [07:06] param: that proxy error should be solvable. My proxy does not require authentication, but in my /etc/environment file I have a line that looks like 'http_proxy="http://workproxy.work.com:2128/"' (and variations because some programs will look for http_proxy, others for HTTP_PROXY... === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman [07:06] when setting up lvm, should i create the default partition as primary or extended, and should i leave it unformatted? [07:07] param: You have to edit that file with sudo or gksudo to get privleges. [07:07] zeep, its an unpredictable random number generator, is more ideal in a linux environment with low entropy such as on a server that doesn't have a mouse or keyboard attached to it [07:07] !lvm | zeep [07:07] zeep: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto [07:08] OK I successfully installed the ATI Radeon 13.1 drivers for my Radeon HD 4350 Card and I rebooted. Problem : Dark bands on all sides of display. Loss of 1920 x 1080 Resolution. Launcher cannot be seen as in GONE . The X _ (maximize) buttons are not seen in new windows. Please help!! [07:08] param: if you do a search on google, there should be instructions on setting up authentication in that string as well. I'm just not familiar with them. [07:08] oh i can set the entire disk [07:08] Sorry folks, need to get out of here. Work shift ended.... [07:09] zeep, haveged stands for hardware entropy gathering expansion something [07:09] ar [07:10] zeep, you have to have entropy for cryptography [07:10] you can even generate entropy through audio and video files [07:10] i'm sure my gaming habits will help with that ;p [07:11] you have to install software to do that with though [07:11] ok rusty i am trying with that thing [07:12] also if you use a weak password then it doesn't matter how strong of an encryption algorythm you use [07:12] OK I successfully installed the ATI Radeon 13.1 drivers for my Radeon HD 4350 Card and I rebooted. Problem : Dark bands on all sides of display. Loss of 1920 x 1080 Resolution. Launcher cannot be seen as in completely gone. The X _ (maximize) buttons are not seen in new windows. Please help!! [07:12] if it can be brute forced or cracked with rainbow tables then all is pointless ... you must use a strong password [07:13] passwords suck. [07:13] you can use keys too.. put the key on usb [07:13] and disable password authentication [07:13] hm that was painless [07:14] Hi, can somebody known the username and password for ubuntu-12.04-preinstalled-desktop-armhf+omap4?

[11:28] earlier kernels have same problem now [11:28] User's system shouldn't break with single kernel update. :P [11:28] each time I install anything nvidia related system hangs at battery state [11:28] h [11:29] Lasse-: Erm, of course it can... [11:29] Yes it can, but it SHOULD NOT. [11:29] and kernlog says:nvrm rminitadapter failed! [11:29] cloneG: Did you installad this drivers by hand from nvidia site, from PPA or other non-official source? [11:29] did you install* [11:30] cloneG: Your best bet would probably be deleting all Nvidia-related work you have done and start from scratch. [11:30] all the options you mentioned Wizard were tested [11:30] okay I am at that scratch point...with an unease itching btw [11:30] Also, do you have installed some system stuff from third party? [11:31] Those could cause problems. [11:31] Ah, so you *did* use PPA? [11:31] only ppa [11:31] xorg edgers? [11:31] Well.. Now only Hades knows what kind of mess you have :D [11:31] Try reverting to stock xorg. [11:32] I installed swat x and xorg edgers ppas [11:32] LOL, this is just amazing :D [11:32] but now I am in desktop again thanks to: sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia* [11:32] Maybe you shouldn't randomly install newer Xorgs :P [11:32] Unless they provide something you need. [11:32] no 3d acceleration though [11:32] Revert to stock Xorg like I said. [11:33] randomly? I thought they were news for the system [11:33] improvements [11:33] Well, if using such a PPAs, you should be prepared for possible system breakage. [11:33] Can anyone tell me what's wrong with this please - http://paste.ubuntu.com/5650845/ [11:33] And be sure you know how to revert & fix issues. [11:34] how do I revert to stock xorg Lasse-? [11:34] ubuntu is broken ootb [11:34] cloneG: Try removing the PPAs from your list. [11:34] IceD^: For me, it isnt. [11:34] Lasse- and then? [11:34] so you can only make it more or less broken [11:34] Then deleling some xorg and reinstall it from Ubuntu's repo. [11:34] *deleting whole [11:34] bekks: try to change font size :) [11:34] IceD^: Go away, that's trolling. [11:34] What am I typing :| [11:34] IceD^: I did. Works. [11:35] do I need to install ubuntu repo? Lasse- [11:35] No. [11:35] Unless you have removed those. [11:35] you can't - you need to find out about "ubuntu-tweak-something" and install it first. no such option in stock ubuntu [11:35] cloneG: As far as I know, reverting to stock xorg will mean serious troubles. [11:35] and it's not trolling by all means [11:35] Lasse- so just removing those alien ppas and updating system? seems a wise and easy solution [11:36] cloneG: apt has poor downgrade capabilities. [11:36] cloneG: sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg [11:36] IceD^: It is. [11:36] then sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg [11:36] also remove all Nvidia drivers if you have some left. [11:36] and reinstall those from Ubuntu's repo too after you have the stock Xorg. [11:36] IceD^: You did not ask how I change dthe font size. Do you have another specific problem? [11:36] Wizard: if it's trolling, point me to the place where I can change font size :) [11:37] yes, I asked how to configure my touchpad (and got zero answers ;]) [11:37] System font size? [11:37] Well, if you can't change font size from GUI, it's broken. [11:37] Considering Ubuntu is meant to be easy-to-use system for non-geek people. [11:37] Wizard: yes, system font size [11:37] IceD^: We dont know which touchpad you have, so noone can answer your question. [11:37] IceD^: Unity tweak or something like this may help. Actually, gconf-editor and gconf-editor are sufficient. [11:37] Lasse-: that's my point [11:37] IceD^: is the font to small [11:37] But then again, Ubuntu and other *nix-systems have long way to really be that. [11:38] Lasse-: OS X is a certified Unix. [11:38] bekks: lenovo y580 laptop, as I told I just want to disable bottom part of it (thanks to idiot engeneers from lenovo) [11:38] nvm. [11:38] Wizard: Well yeah. [11:38] Wizard, and it's a pile of shit [11:38] I agree :D [11:38] But it's OT. [11:38] and then? reinstall ubuntu nvidia packages' [11:38] IceD^: The laptop make and model does not tell us which touchpad you have. [11:38] Lasse-: they will never be there. thankfully, emacs works, browser works and I don't need much else from it [11:38] IceD^: do you tiny fonts [11:38] bekks: what info you need? [11:39] Lasse- and then install ubuntu nvidia packages? [11:39] IceD^: The info which touchpad it is. [11:39] Yes. [11:39] After you have stock xorg instaled. [11:39] Then it should work. [11:39] Reboot to load nvidia kernel-module. [11:39] Lasse- okay wish me good luck [11:40] Lasse- one more thing do I need to get into tty? [11:40] Why? [11:40] cheeseBreath apparently doesn't like me. [11:41] Lasse- I dont know perhaps because I am uninstalling xserver? [11:41] If you installed it from repo after that [11:41] then you should be fine. [11:41] Windows vista and ME is better than ubuntu [11:42] cheeseBreath just came to my query and asked if my name's asshole :D [11:42] Lasse-: Just tell the ops about it :) [11:42] Lasse- mind your language [11:42] Its true we are [11:43] bekks: I don't really care. :D [11:43] synaptics: SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad: Vendor 0x2 Product 0x7 - that's only info I'm able to find [11:43] IceD^: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad [11:43] Lasse- summarizing: delete alien ppas-->sudo apt-get update-->sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg-->sudo reboot-->sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg [11:44] I don't think you need to reboot in between. [11:44] I meant that after you reinstall Nvidia-drivers, you can reboot to get nvidia-module loaded. [11:44] Lasse-anything else? [11:44] But that looks fine otherwise. [11:44] Lasse- summarizing: delete alien ppas-->sudo apt-get update-->sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg--->sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-->sudo apt-get install nvidia-current [11:44] But I am not claiming it will work, but that's what I would try. [11:45] Yeah, go for it. [11:45] bekks: and? there is NOTHING there but using system / preference / mouse (which doesn't have any usefull options) [11:45] hello world === teonat is now known as Guest48937 [11:45] IceD^: Read the link. [11:45] I did like 2 hours ago [11:45] IceD^: It tells you how to disable your touchpad. [11:46] IceD^: Then you didnt read that part. [11:46] I don't want to disable it. I want to disable bottom area of it (where buttons are) [11:47] in Krusader when entering in an archive it gives me the following error: "Error: krarc is disabled." Please help! [11:47] well, as I see nothing changed last 10 years (last time I used debian-based crap before). crappy software, useless community. sorry & cya [11:47] hi all any ideas to how to convert 195Mb pdf file to ppt? thx [11:48] tozen: Insert it into a PPT in MS Office. [11:48] Lasse- unticking the ppas in software sources would do or do I need to remove them? [11:49] bekks: thx i'll try [11:49] That should do it. [11:49] Well, you can remove them anyway. [11:49] I mean, unless there's something you actually need, just leave them alone. [11:51] Lasse- done... [11:51] hey you guys :> [11:51] Lasse-updating now [11:51] opiate: Hi. [11:51] i'm downloading the ubuntu 13.04.iso, how can i run that along-side windows? :> [11:51] Well, what do you mean? [11:51] If you mean dual booting, naturally yes. [11:52] if you want to use it while Windows is running, you can use Virtualbox. [11:52] Lasse- sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver-xorg done [11:52] cloneG: You do not need to highlight me for every step, thanks. [11:52] yes, i mean dual booting. how do i get started? :> [11:52] opiate: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot [11:52] thx :> [11:54] opiate: You should start by backuping all important data you have. [11:54] Just in case something bad happens by accident. === pesasa_ is now known as pesasa === jan_ is now known as Guest17691 [11:54] how can I set my IRC client to log me in with myregistered nick? [11:54] What IRC-client you got? [11:55] jony_easyrider ask in #freenode [11:55] looks easy [11:55] opiate: it is pretty straightforward if you take it slow. [11:55] And read everything before going on. [11:56] Most people who mess up the installation do not read or do not understand what they just read and still proceed. [11:56] burn iso to disk, insert disk, automatic-partitioning [11:56] opiate: If you got an USB-stickmemory, you can use that too. [11:56] Using CDs and DVDs is so early 00s. :P [11:57] i don't have a backup of windows 8 but i'm going to take my chances. i'd rather eat a blue-waffle than keep useing this windows 8 [11:57] :D i do has a usb! i can choose that in bios also, instead of boot from cd? [11:57] but blue-waffles sound yummy. are they bad? [11:58] opiate: BIOS or separate boot-menu accessible during the initial boot (the same time you can access BIOS). [11:58] my girlfriend makes the bestest blue waffles :> [11:58] ahhh [11:58] You can use http://www.linuxliveusb.com/ to easily have a bootable Ubuntu installation stick. [11:58] and yes, some motherboards do not show the USB in bios' menu but do show it in separate bootmenu. [11:58] well aren't you just full of information :D [11:59] kk [11:59] when i get this up what irc client should i look into, incase i have more questions? [11:59] Whatever you prefer. [12:00] X-Chat is at least simple to use. [12:00] does it come with an irc client? [12:00] kk [12:00] Although it sucks in my opinion. [12:00] I do not remember. [12:00] "simple" :D [12:00] Haven't used Ubuntu actively for...5 years I think. [12:00] i'm a recovering drug addict. our motto is "keep is simple" :P [12:00] you're still useing debian though? [12:00] suraj_: FloodBots are bots, they can't answer you. Just ask your question here. [12:01] opiate: Actually not right now. [12:01] Arch Linux. [12:01] if i've never used linux (for the most part) ubuntu-debian is a good choice? [12:01] Ubuntu or Mint. [12:02] Actually to be honest, I'd probably suggest Mint over Ubuntu personally for beginners. [12:02] another question.. i'm useing a wireless usb adaptor for interweb ;) [12:02] It has small things that makes it more beginner friendly in my opinion, like the fact that codecs, Java & Flash are pre-installed. [12:02] i know windows has basicly plug-n-play [12:02] Which adapter? [12:03] make & model that is. [12:03] will this cause me a problem? it's a belkin wi-fi usb adapter [12:03] kubuntu is. also. a good choice [12:03] n150 [12:03] I can't say for sure without knowing what chipset it has. [12:04] i have a cd, i read about "wine" and i'm kind of counting on that as a last resort type deal [12:04] Actually, Wine wouldn't help with that. [12:04] sadface [12:04] :(* [12:04] If you can dig up the exact model-number from somewhere, that would help greatly. [12:05] of the usb stick? [12:05] Yes. [12:05] The Wifi-adapter I mean. [12:05] http://www.belkin.com/us/Products/Networking/Wireless/c/WSNTWLS?q=::categoryPath:/Web/WSNT/WSNTWLS/WSNTWLSUSBA [12:06] n150 [12:06] There's three N150-adapters listed there. [12:06] Can you pinpoint which one it is ? [12:06] How can sell the items belkin? [12:07] Excuse me? [12:07] lol [12:07] yes :> [12:07] http://www.belkin.com/us/F9L1001-Belkin/p/P-F9L1001;jsessionid=09DD868A62973346BF7011865D0BFDB8?q=::categoryPath:/Web/WSNT/WSNTWLS/WSNTWLSUSBA [12:07] the 24 dollar one :x [12:07] best-buy screwed me btw :> paid 40 dollars [12:07] Yes How can create code to sell the item on internet/.? [12:08] Stupid Belkin doesn't list technical details like the chipset used. [12:08] I'll try Googling a bit. [12:08] why does installing winetricks bring in wine as a dependency ;o [12:08] yeah i touched on that, it confused me so i gave up [12:09] because when someone is new to debian like me "windows imulator" is a very catchy title [12:09] looks like a fix-all-easy solution :D [12:09] opiate: I think it has Ralink RT2870 chipset. [12:10] i see [12:10] my instalation cd says for windows v 7 and 8 [12:10] so i shook in my boots some [12:11] is trim enabled in 13.04 [12:11] opiate: Apparently RT2870 drivers should be built-in. [12:11] in Ubuntu. [12:12] So unless there's some sort of bug or something else, it should just work. [12:12] ok thank you for your help :) i'm going to do some more research before i continue. you were very informitive Lasse- [12:12] oh [12:12] for ssds [12:12] awesome [12:12] :D awesome [12:12] opiate: No problem, hope you'll succeed.

[13:24] brainwash: thanks [13:24] and purchasing cs3 is saying i'm making a commitment [13:24] to windows [13:25] kingfisher64 you tried everything and nothing works, looks like you're out of luck [13:25] yeah, didn't realise that all those years ago betrayd - was young and naive [13:25] Hey, I think I need some clarification on the ~/bin folder [13:25] and that SW is too leading edge [13:25] on my desktop I can use binaries in that path, and on a server install I can't [13:25] kingfisher64: ^ === _DIoX|DaZ is now known as DIoX|DaZ [13:26] I laugh when people consider Gimp to be an alternative to Photoshop. Don't think they realise just how powerful Photoshop is [13:26] any idea what is going wrong there? [13:26] eltigre: Then the PATH variable on the server is different from your desktop. [13:26] hm hm [13:26] eltigre: that folder is for scripts the individual user writes. It isn't part of the path, so I link my scripts to /usr/local/bin so I can call them easily [13:26] adamk what's the performance like if you dont' mind me asking. [13:27] Excryption: maybe "an alternative for 80% of the photoshop userbase"? ;) [13:27] Excryption gimp is similar to paintshop, not to photoshop - i've used paintshop for years [13:27] kingfisher64: Pretty good. Certainly works for my needs. I rarely run more than just one of the CS programs at a time, though. [13:27] Excryption - i love photoshop. Personally think it's the single best graphics package ever greated. === olli_ is now known as olli [13:28] Paintshop is no Photoshop. [13:28] Excryption true [13:28] th0r, bekks thank you, I'm probably going to link the scripts from /usr/local/bin... [13:28] I'm still trying to get my Unity to start. After changing to proprietary drivers, it just won't start. [13:28] eltigre: Dont do it that way. Configure the PATH variable to fit your needs. [13:29] bekks, ok [13:29] i wouldn't be either adamk. It's only creative suite and rosetta stone I use. I'll give this a go. [13:29] Excryption: Perhaps there are people who know the gimp better than you do and who are able to do more of what photoshop does with it. [13:29] Excryption: what card and what ubuntu version? [13:29] Excryption: do youknow for sure it's using prop. drivers [13:29] I own legally xp, however it's been activated/reinstalled so many times that now the key doesn't work. V annoying as nlite created a nice little lightweight version that would be superb [13:30] kingfisher64: You should still be able to activate it over the phone, I would think. [13:30] im going to have to phone the evildoers microsoft - wish me luck! [13:30] i have ntfs partition that when i mount it i don't see nothing and in terminal when i got ls i get this error : $ ls [13:30] Ubuntu 13.04. Intel HD4000 and AMD Radeon 7730M. I'm using the correct drivers, even switched to iGPU still no luck. [13:30] ls: cannot access $RECYCLE.BIN: Input/output error (i removed this folder ago) so what should i do? [13:30] XP shouldn't require phone activation at all, but that's a matter for ##windows not #ubuntu [13:31] gl , get it done kingfisher64 [13:31] I have managed to switch to default AMD drivers in Addtional Drivers section of Settings, still nothing. [13:31] is there a package similar to Environment Modules Project ? [13:32] jhutchins, yeah it's in the context of installing it in a virtualmachine and switching permentantly to ubuntu though, so maybe I can be forgiven for mentioning it. :) [13:32] ilpuccio: Whats that "Environment Modules Project"? [13:32] i'll try that first then adamk - thank you :) [13:33] bekks, a quick way to switch a bunch on environment variable, lets say you want to maintain different version of a same software but you want to keep your environment consistent [13:33] bekks, http://modules.sourceforge.net/ [13:33] Krusader tells me when entering in an archive that "krarc is disabled". Please help! [13:33] ilpuccio: Than can be easily done by setting an alias in your shell.

[13:41] Hi all. There is a pretty bad bug in the version of clang that ships with Ubuntu 13.04. It has been fixed upstream. How should I go about trying to get this fix as an update in Ubuntu 13.04? [13:41] ilpuccio: You are running servers with unsupported software? Thats not cool. :) [13:41] agwblack: file a bug if it doesn't already exist (also check out « /msg ubottu !sru » and ask for help in #ubuntu-bugs) [13:42] jrib: thanks!

So anyone have any ideas how to get this installed/working? [13:46] how to split a system lvm to a system and home lvm? [13:47] raven: Back it up, then resize (shrink) your LV, VG, PV, and create a new PV, VG, LV.

[14:58] shazzr: Erm. Try moving that file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf-backup and restart. If your rotation still occur, ah... Screw it. Use DISPLAY=:0 xrandr -o normal in your autostart file. :| [14:58] guys my webcam works but tinychat wont see it [14:59] I can click ok broadcast and click acept [14:59] but next part says cant find cam [14:59] any ideas? [14:59] Zeep: the windows used to have the X window and curved edges. Well the curved edges are gone now and the x minimize maximize buttons are gone [14:59] lasers: I did put that line in my autostart file, and It didn't do any difference. Trying removing the xorg.conf file instead.... [15:00] is there an ap that lets me broadcast on tinychat? [15:00] what was the last thing someone msged me? i accidentally closed xchat ;o [15:00] Can someone give me the opposite of Unity --replace command ? [15:00] it's unity, not Unity [15:00] shazzr: Check for ~/.nvidia*rc file -- and possibly /root/.nvidia*rc -- Did you try it with DISPLAY=:0 too? (That bit is probably why the line didn't work in first place. It don't know what DISPLAY you're talking about). [15:00] seperation [15:01] A1Recon, do which unity [15:01] oh command i dunno lol [15:01] thought you meant grammer 0_o [15:01] A1Recon, what's the output of 'which unity' [15:01] Zeep: I know its unity...

[15:03] just put them on sharks [15:03] no harm done ;p [15:03] lasers: Nope. No result with that one either. Shouldn't there be some kind of a log file for the boot process or something? [15:03] Zeep: the terminal is missing the titlebar and the unity launcher did not load. [15:04] might be an issue with compiz [15:05] Hiii all [15:05] A1Recon, can you launch the compiz manager?

[15:06] shazzr: Important logs generally goes in /var/log -- but meh. Oh. Do you have/use ~/.xinitrc (and/or) ~/.xsession? Technically, it'd be the good place to put xrandr -o normal bit in. If you use lightdm, I believe you want ~/.Xsession [15:06] Zeep: do you know how to revert the changes made by unity --replace ? [15:06] Zeep: how do I launch the compiz manager? [15:06] A1Recon, you can restart lightdm and relogin, but it will log you out of the current session [15:07] I have created a new command and I need to create a new man page for this command can anyone tell me how to do this ??

If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [16:32] theperfectpunk, What release are you running? [16:32] Ubuntu 13.04 [16:32] hey guys i'm trying to install ubuntu... dual booting with windows 8, but some of the install options are confusing [16:32] !uefi | Guy11 [16:33] Guy11: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI [16:33] wait a second [16:33] Guy11, Have you seen this link? [16:33] I got the install dvd and it's asking me to install alongside 'other operating systems' I say no [16:33] so I want to install in the HD unpartitioned space [16:34] Guy11: why [16:34] Hey Guys, I am faced with issues. I am using Kubuntu 12.10 on a Lenovo W530. I am not able to get graphic drivers working fine. I enabled discrete(cause of Optimus) mode in my Bios, installed the last nvidia drivers, but when I used nvidia-xconfig and then rebooted. My screen resolution became very poor (bad resolution) and nvidia-settings still refused to work (it says that I need to use nvidia-xconfig). [16:34] what do you mean why? [16:34] !wilee-nilee Ubuntu 13.04 [16:34] theperfectpunk: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [16:35] Guy11: it has to be partitioned [16:35] Guy11, A aimed install is done in the something other option, this is a manual install. Make sure you are aware of the uefi gpt info in that link if the W8 is this type. [16:35] all I did was shrink my w8 partition and left the space unallocated, isn't that enough to prepare? [16:36] the w8 is an upgrade though [16:36] wizmoi, you probably need to run nvidia-xconfig to create a basic config file [16:36] Guy11: the installer is not seeing it? [16:36] Guy11, So no uefi, and always use nicks please. [16:36] no it is, but my question are the options it asks me [16:36] like ext4, and then something about /root, /boot etc [16:37] nicks? [16:37] Guy11, Hve you read the uefi link? [16:37] zeep, thx for your support but i already run nvidia-xconfig and the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file has been created [16:37] !who | Guy11 [16:37] Guy11: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [16:37] hello all! I tried to install nvidia-310 and I lose all resolutions. My machine doesn't seem very stable with Nouveau. What is the best way to install Nvidia drivers in 13.04? [16:38] wizmoi, oh yeah i misread. i use ati, can't be of much help :/ [16:38] v0lksman, the easy way is through software updates application in the tab for third party drivers [16:39] ezra-s: yeah that's what I tried before...I end up with 640x480 and no other options, single monitor etc... [16:39] ezra-s, Additional drivers they are in the repos, not really 3rd party per-say. [16:39] GeForce 220 [16:39] is there any way to get the nice boot splash with prop. drivers? [16:39] wilee-nilee, that's right, my fault [16:40] software sources [16:40] I also ran nvidia-xconfig and it seems to make things worse...I ended up having to delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf in order to get Nouveau working again [16:40] !wilee-nilee got anything? [16:40] theperfectpunk: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [16:40] hey wilee-nilee got anything? [16:40] v0lksman, problem is if there is nouveau driver loaded in kernel nvidia driver module won't work correctly [16:41] is this still a viable solution for boot splash with prop drivers? http://askubuntu.com/questions/96616/purple-start-screen-no-splash-screen [16:41] Do I need to mess around with the uefi stuff if my laptop is ubuntu "certified"? [16:41] v0lksman, if you are knowledgeable I'd recommend you to download nvidia drivers from the nvidia driver, remove all precompiled packages you have of nvidia, and install those [16:41] theperfectpunk, My advice would to get a wifi that works out if the box those are problematic even if gotten to work. [16:41] theperfectpunk, what's the problem? [16:41] ezra-s: any good step by step guides? I would assume that if I tell it to install nvidia-310 it would remove nouveau [16:42] same issue for me if i deleted the xorg.conf generated by nvidia-xconfig my resolution is better [16:42] can't compile drivers [16:42] for wireless? [16:42] v0lksman, it does not.. it configures the system so the nvidia driver takes precedence over the nouveau, but something must have gone wrong for you [16:42] Here's the pastebin [16:42] http://pastebin.com/ei67W7HD [16:43] rt3290 on Ubuntu 13.04 [16:43] v0lksman, make sure when you do "lsmod | grep nvidia" something shows up [16:43] indicators doesnt work in ubuntu 12.04 64 bit gnome panel [16:43] the driver compiled fine on Ubuntu 12.04 [16:43] if not, your system is not correctly loading the necessary driver [16:43] theperfectpunk, Just so you are aware you can tab complete nicks, type in the first couple of the nick and hit tab. [16:43] theperfectpunk, please post output of : lspci -nn | grep 280 [16:43] gnome-fallback [16:44] can i somehow prevent apt-get from breaking on broken packages/dependencies? [16:44] johndoe: No, you should fix those problems. [16:44] 02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Ralink corp. RT3290 Wireless 802.11n 1T/1R PCIe [1814:3290] [16:44] johndoe, breaking on broken? [16:45] var [16:45] fresh installed 13.04, coming along [16:45] coming along [16:46] anyone had luck getting scanner buttons to work? i'm trying to get the button on my scanner to work. currently getting scanbd installed and getting stuck because it can't find sane-config. what package is that located in? i've asked in #sane with no luck [16:46] does anybody knows why indicators doesnt work in ubuntu 12.04 64 bit gnome-fallback? [16:46] theperfectpunk, can you give me the link where you downloaded the driver from? [16:46] !skype [16:46] To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga [16:46] !nvidia [16:46] For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [16:47] ezra-s: it refuses to install new packages because of some broken ones [16:47] johndoe, sudo apt-get -f install [16:48] it doesnt fix anything, because i put those packages on hold [16:48] i dont want apt to touch those packages [16:48] aaron_: do you have indicator-applet-complete installed and have it added to the panel? [16:48] johndoe, I see [16:48] those are some old packages which i installed by hand [16:48] they arent available in newer versions [16:48] :( [16:48] trism, yes [16:48] johndoe, Have you locked them in synaptic? [16:49] A have a fellow remotely trying to install ubuntu server 12.04, he burned a CD and during install got to end an an error occurred, "Unable to install the selected kernel package :linux-generic-lts-quantal", is there anyway to verify the image he is using matches a MD5 or SHA1 of the original? [16:49] trism, wait what do you mean by added to the panel? [16:49] johndoe, sorry man, but if they are breaking something else apt-get works that way afaik [16:49] aaron_: alt+right click the panel, add to panel, Indicator Applet Complete [16:49] wilee-nilee: echo " hold" | dpkg --set-selections [16:49] tgunr_, 32 or 64 bit ? [16:49] 64 [16:49] wilee-nilee: more specifically, echo "amarok14 hold" | dpkg --set-selections [16:49] Hello i have a question. I've installed ubuntu on my laptop and now i want to install windows along side the ubuntu partition. Can i resise the ubuntu's partition to create some free space for windows and intall it there? [16:50] tgunr_, check the md5sum > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM [16:50] trism, now all my icons are doubled [16:50] cc, thanks [16:50] trism, hahahaj [16:50] gagarin1, probably can you install gparted and take a screenshot of the HD and post it n a imagebin? [16:51] aaron_: ha, strange, you can probably remove one of them then, wonder why they didn't show up initially [16:51] trism, how can i remove them? [16:51] wilee-nilee: http://i.imgur.com/AjHfCzl.png [16:51] aaron_: alt+right click one of the indicators and Remove from Panel [16:52] hi... i have an app that only works in the terminal (command line) and I need to use it through a socks proxy to download some stuff. I have set up tor on my computer accordingly, but now how would I make the terminal use the socks server for connections? [16:52] gagarin1, YOU have ubuntu encrypted? [16:52] trism, still no luck [16:53] trism, xchat indicator doesnt work skype etc [16:53] aaron_: oh those would be in the notification area [16:53] aaron_: alt + right click, add to panel, notification area, that isn't there by default [16:53] wilee-nilee: im not sure, i dont remember if i encrypted it, is there a way to check it? [16:53] Bilz: That really depends on the program itself, not the terminal. Many apps honor the all_proxy and/or http_proxy environmental variables. [16:53] ezra-s: this was the solution xD equivs - Circumvent Debian package dependencies [16:53] trism, i can find xchat but not skype [16:54] varunendra: got disconnected [16:54] trism, and i wanted xchat to look up for message notificatios [16:54] varunendra: found a solution? [16:54] trism, notifications [16:54] trism, okay i found skype [16:54] trism, :D [16:54] theperfectpunk, where did you get the driver from? Its link? [16:54] johndoe, dependencies are there for more reason than a whim [16:54] trism, thanks [16:55] trism, one last thing can i do anything to have xchat indicator seperately? [16:55] adamk, ive been reading about something to do with creating an ssh tunnel. i dont quite understand how its working though and seeing as just copying what has been done isnt working this is problematic [16:55] gagarin1, I have not used encryption, I am just noting the sda5 as unknown, lools like a swap. The key to a windows install is having it first on the HD for easy access, you have ubuntu there now. If it were me I would clone the ubuntu and wipe the disc install windows then reload ubuntu. Not sure though if you are encrypted as far as reloading and having access. [16:56] varunendra: From here http://www.mediatek.com/_en/07_downloads/01_windows.php?sn=501 [16:56] ezra-s: most of the time. but sometimes the system thinks its smarter than me, ie. wants to do things i dont want it to do. === jim is now known as Guest58719 [16:57] hello [16:57] ezra-s: this whole hassle of mine was because i wanted to have amarok-1.4 installed [16:57] aaron_: you want a separate indicator for xchat instead of being part of the envelope indicator? it would be possible, but I don't know if anyone has made one [16:57] i'm using nautilus as a file browser and manager but it doesnt display image file width and height [16:58] varunendra: it's rt3290 [16:58] trism, message me to see something [16:58] theperfectpunk, found it. Taking a look at code.. wait a min. [16:58] wilee-nilee: by cloning, you mean just backing up my files for example on a external HD? [16:58] hey guys… all the time i create a repository i have to sign it with: gpg --sign -bao Release.gpg Release BUT i have to input the password all the time. I want to do this automatically with a script. how can avoid using a password or just input it automatically?? [16:58] guys im installing ubuntu, i followed the uefi link-- what should my mount point be? [16:58] is there a way to have nautilus display imagefiles width and height ? - or what other tool should i use ? [16:59] johndoe, for those cases in which you need to have something but the original .deb breaks things you can unpack the deb and install the binaries or whatever you need under /usr/local or ~/.local , so you have certain control over it [16:59] gagarin1, That s one way, however the word files is to broad. There are cloning apps like clonezilla. This app will copy bit by g=bit the IS for a reinstall to a equal or bigger partition. [16:59] ezra-s: agreed, but sometimes thats the harder way [16:59] johndoe, at the end you can use your program and it's installation is under your control only , while system packages get controlled and without problems with apt-get [17:00] im installing 13.04 on same HD as windows, should I use ext4 and what mount point? [17:00] johndoe, but certainly your issues are more trouble now than anything else [17:01] ezra-s: why? [17:01] wilee-nilee: thank you for your help ^^ [17:01] johndoe, why? you are asking here because you are in trouble right? [17:01] theperfectpunk, it is not what I suspected. Must do some experiment on 13.04 (I'm on 12.04), so it will take time to figure out why the error occurred. Do you have any thread posted on this issue? [17:01] anyone, mount point???? [17:02] varunendra: yes [17:02] gagarin1, Honestly, if you cannot even remember whether you have encrypted ubuntu I would backup waht you can't loses like media and just wipe the HD and install windows then ubuntu in an extended, so that you know exactly what is up. [17:02] guy11, / [17:02] theperfectpunk, link? [17:02] thanks [17:02] varunendra: ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2143656 [17:02] here [17:02] guy11 ext4, and create a separate /home partition, too [17:03] why do I need another partition? [17:03] varunendra: by the way, u from india? [17:03] !home [17:03] Your home directory is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For moving your home directory to a separate partition, please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving [17:03] guy11, ^^ [17:03] wilee-nilee: okay [17:03] guy11 it's easier to reinstall or fresh install [17:03] theperfectpunk, found it. Will post in it as soon as I have something worth posting. Yes I'm from India, in India :) [17:04] monkeydust: so that's like the user directory in windows? [17:04] varunendra: thank you! [17:04] Also am I able to edit and access files between windows and ubuntu installing this way? [17:04] guy11 i'm not familiar with windows, but actually, it's the kernel that being separated, which is impossible in that other OS [17:05] hello ! i am facing an issue , i am trying to establish cloud on ubunut using openstack , so on that we have to make manual paritioning, so i created 4 necessary partions for ubuntu, rest space is coming in extended and i want to create that parition from expended onem how i can do it [17:05] theperfectpunk, No problem! :) However, can't help you right away. Unless someone else has experience with this device, you must keep patience. [17:05] guy11, Windows is accessible from ubuntu, however not windows to ubuntu, most have a shred ntfs partition. [17:05] varunendra: ok [17:06] shared* [17:06] see you on your thread then. [17:06] varunendra: cya later [17:06] wilee-nilee: so I am installing ubuntu on 2 partitions, my avail space is 25 gig how big should /home be? [17:07] hello ! i am facing an issue , i am trying to establish cloud on ubunut using openstack , so on that we have to make manual paritioning, so i created 4 necessary partions for ubuntu, rest space is coming in extended and i want to create that parition from expended onem how i can do it [17:08] guy11 depends on what you want to do with ubuntu [17:09] it's for blender and krita mostly [17:09] guy11, With only 25 gigs I would myself not make a separate home, but I never do, it is not really needed. That s a somewhat outdated idea. home can be separated for a upgrade if needed, and one can save installed apps lists and repos and reload in a fresh install easily. I never upgrade I always fresh install it is much faster and stable. [17:09] how to share my desktop over the web ? I have people coming from different OS/Platform [17:09] hello ! i am facing an issue , i am trying to establish cloud on ubunut using openstack , so on that we have to make manual paritioning, so i created 4 necessary partions for ubuntu, rest space is coming in extended and i want to create that parition from expended onem how i can do it [17:09] I am on 13.04 [17:09] waitinig for reply [17:10] wilee-nilee: thanks for the reply that's what I was thinking [17:10] axisys is that a server? if yes: try #ubuntu-server [17:10] MonkeyDust: desktop [17:10] guy11, Np problem, I also tend to clone installs at times as well.

[17:33] Bilz, with socksification you are basically on a lower level forcing a program to do a connection through a socks connection, for that you need the correct library in use when the program is being invoked and the correct configuration for the socks server and address to be used when socksification is needed [17:34] Bilz, I don't know tor, but the simplest thing I have ever used was tsocks [17:34] bella ciao [17:35] !it [17:35] Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese.

[17:43] FireBeard: For me, it isnt. [17:43] on average? [17:43] FireBeard: Never had any sound issues. [17:43] FireBeard start from the beginning, what brings you here, in one line [17:43] every time I do ANYTHING with my audio settings, it just stops working, and it even stops recognizing any cards I have [17:43] strange [17:43] MonkeyDust: audio problems [17:44] I was just curious if this was a widespread problem or not [17:44] just like smurftube [17:45] thanks ezra-s, im a step closer now :) [17:46] btw, this channel has exploded since I was last here :o [17:47] so, are audio problems on 12.04 a common problem? [17:47] FireBeard: For me, they arent. [17:47] you said that alread, I'm asking if it's a problem in general [17:47] FireBeard: What do you really want to know? [17:47] exactly that... [17:48] if it's a fairly common problem or not [17:49] * MonkeyDust hopes problems are never common [17:50] this one seems to be, tho [17:50] that's why I'm asking [17:51] even more strange, after 3 years, the very last general update for 10.04 broke my audio in the same exact way [17:51] all the sudden, there are no more audio cards recognized by the computer, only a 'dummy' thingy [17:52] so, I was wondering if it was a 12.04 [or even an LTS] issue [17:53] FireBeard, did you try searching for similar bugs on launchpad? [17:53] on that pc I never even had any Flash audio problems [17:54] DarkEra: there are SO many bugs on there... [17:54] I tried [17:54] and it seems to be quite wide spread [17:54] FireBeard don't hit the enter key too often, it's getting a headache [17:55] upgrading is always bad news, just wipe the thing [17:55] sorry, force of habbit [17:55] FireBeard: Are you doing something special to get your audio to work in the first place? Like compiling your own drivers? [17:55] Pici: no, not at all actually [17:55] i am trying to find some free internet cafe software [17:56] for some reason Ubuntu desides to not recognize any cards I have in my computer [17:56] I never had this issue before, at all, only since the last 10.04 update and now 12.04 [17:57] FireBeard: "cards"? [17:57] yes, the one on my mainboard and an USB one [17:58] how to make ubuntu first boot option ? [17:58] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure#Step_1 [17:58] I have to do step 1, and reboot twice, in order to make it work again [17:58] as soon as I change anything audio, I have to do the whole thing over again... it's very irritating [17:59] ramilego: first boot? [17:59] ramilego: grub? [17:59] ramilego: the CD? [17:59] FireBeard: What are you changing? [18:00] i installed ubuntu with windows 8 [18:00] Pici: ANY audio settings... [18:00] FireBeard: set yj [18:00] gordonjcp: care to explain? I'm still just a user [18:00] FireBeard: set the alsa load order [18:00] I'll look into that [18:00] i need to make it first boot [18:00] can that even BE an isue?? [18:00] wow [18:01] FireBeard: what? [18:01] FireBeard: relax. we're having trouble understanding exactly what you're saying. start over [18:01] FireBeard: so after you upgraded your audio starting acting up. correct? [18:02] How do I share a file png image here for my bootchart? [18:02] ramilego: do you see both windows and ubuntu in a GRUB screen on bootup? [18:02] no, it started acting up after the last 10.04 update [18:02] hi [18:02] yes [18:03] I can get it to work again, I just wanted to know if it's a common issue [18:03] netlar: dunno, imgur.com ? your ubuntu one folder ? [18:03] FireBeard: but you still haven't said what the issue is, particularly clearly === ewindisch_ is now known as ewindisch [18:03] I tried, English is not my first language [18:03] FireBeard: mine neither [18:03] Hi [18:03] FireBeard: what's actually happening [18:03] so, mine is still worse than yours, yay [18:03] I have a doubt [18:04] I need some help regarding an issue in ubuntu [18:04] vijay: ok [18:04] !ask | vijay [18:04] vijay: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [18:04] can anyone help me out [18:04] like I said: the install does not recognize the audiocard at all [18:04] FireBeard: what's the sound card? [18:04] thanks. I have windows 8 iso file in ubuntu 12.04 [18:04] some onboard nvidia thing [18:04] I want to install windows 8 now [18:04] how can I do that? [18:05] FireBeard: okay, can you identify what the hardware is with lspci [18:05] vijay: #windows [18:05] vijay: hang on [18:05] again, I just wanted to know if this behaviour is common in 12.04 [18:05] gordonjcp: not on that pc atm [18:05] vijay: you need to burn the image file to a blank DVD [18:05] FireBeard: I don't have any NVidia chipset stuff, so I'm not the best person to ask [18:05] I didn't specifically ask you... [18:05] cant I do without burning the file [18:05] FireBeard: it may be that the card requires some funny firmware [18:06] FireBeard: I'd be really surprised if that's the problem though [18:06] like copying this iso onto a pen drive and all? [18:06] that does not explain why it just stopped working tho [18:06] FireBeard: yeah [18:06] vijay: check out http://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads [18:06] vijay, You can load the ISO to a usb formatted as an ntfs with a bootflag extract with the archive manager, it will boot. [18:06] FireBeard: one thing that happens with ALSA is that the cards are sometimes detected in a different order [18:07] FireBeard: so if you've got a couple of USB audio devices attached they are the wrong way round [18:07] yea, it only has one [18:07] wilee [18:07] can you gimme any link [18:07] FireBeard: one sound device? [18:07] as I am new to all these stuff [18:07] yes [18:07] vijay, NO links on this just found this to work. [18:07] in desparation I tried my USB XFI card, to no avail [18:07] woks with W7 as well [18:07] then I found the solution I posted earlier [18:08] I just asked if there was a common issue on 12.04 with soundcards in general [18:08] it's all I asked [18:08] wilee, i have tried using disk creator [18:08] vijay, The multisytem usb loader at pendrivelinux works as well. [18:09] to create a bootable drive [18:09] but I am not able to [18:09] vijay, I gave you two options that work. [18:10] vijay: you are trying to create a bootable Windows installer? [18:10] vijay: what on earth has that to do with Ubuntu? [18:10] after all these years of audio FINALLY not being a problem anymore, it returns... [18:10] FireBeard: no, it seems pretty solid apart from that [18:10] the 'apart from that' is what gets me [18:10] FireBeard: it may be worth identifying your specific hardware and seeing if there is some problem with that chipset [18:11] I want to install [18:11] windows 8 now [18:11] I can't seem to find any solution to this error from Software Center, tips anyone? The error: Software can't be installed or removed because the authentication service is not available. (org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.Error.Failed: ('system-bus-name', {'name': ':1.115'}): org.debian.apt.install-or-remove-packages === __d10n__ is now known as d10n [18:11] I can always look it up, but it wasn't a problem for many many years [18:11] so what can I do [18:11] ?? [18:11] I have a very long boot up time, just short of 3 min, here is my boot chart http://ircshare.com/i/bj , wonder if someone can tell me what is the hang up in my boot from this chart? [18:12] How well would Gtkpod work with a 2nd-gen Shuffle? [18:12] TeamRocket1233c sure you're in the right channel? [18:13] I thought this was the support channel. [18:13] I am on 13.04 with a AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5600+ [18:13] netlar, 3 min from start until login screen? [18:13] TeamRocket1233c not any support, it's for ubuntu [18:13] TeamRocket1233c: Try #gtkpod [18:13] brainwash: yes [18:14] And it is pretty fast after I log in, not sluggish at all [18:14] and when I rm everything *pulse, and reinstall the whole shebang,it works again, untill I try to modify anything audio, including output [I muted the 'surround' thingy in alsamixer, and it went dead again, same exact thing, again no more card recognized, etc] [18:14] And I'm running 13.04 on a Sempron 3400+ over here. [18:14] makes me nuts [18:14] netlar, just take a look at the time scale in your bootchart [18:15] what is good visio like tool? [18:15] brainwash: I did, not sure I can make any sense of it [18:15] Unity's usable in it, definitely, but it starts to choke when put under intensive-enough use. [18:15] netlar, everything is up and running after 33 secs [18:16] Meanwhile Xfce handles Vbox, Chromium, Xchat, and Pidgin going at the same time like a champ. [18:16] gordonjcp: thanks for your valiant effort tho ! :) [18:16] brainwash: yes notice that part, but it just sits at a blank screen for over 2 min first [18:16] FireBeard: what cpu you have [18:16] netlar, are you able to switch to a virtual terminal during that time? [18:17] TeamRocket1233c: Aaaaaand Unity doesn't? [18:17] brainwash: you mean with cntr + alt + f1? [18:17] netlar, yes [18:17] Dont think so, let me try again [18:17] onionHead_: an AMD quadcore, second gen [18:18] SonikkuAmerica: On my specs, it starts to choke under heavy enough load, but then I have a Sempron 3400+ with a gig and a half of RAM so -shrug-. [18:18] brainwash: If I can what does that mean? [18:18] FireBeard: can you run silverlight. [18:18] TeamRocket1233c: OK, I have twice as much RAM as you but an Intel 965 [18:18] I forget the name of it, and this pcis too slow to to google [18:18] I can't seem to find any solution to this error from Software Center, tips anyone? The error: Software can't be installed or removed because the authentication service is not available. (org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.Error.Failed: ('system-bus-name', {'name': ':1.115'}): org.debian.apt.install-or-remove-packages [18:18] onionHead_: never tried [18:18] netlar, something might be wrong with lightdm, not sure [18:18] SonikkuAmerica: I'm sure that on better hardware than what I got, it would take a lot more to choke Unity though. [18:19] Ohhhh yes TeamRocket1233c [18:19] I tried it once, and it didn't work from what I remember [18:19] netlar, did you also check the output of dmesg? [18:19] brainwash: I tried, not even sure what I am looking at there [18:19] SonikkuAmerica: And this is Vbox + Chromium with several tabs + Pidgin + Xchat I'm referring to here. [18:20] FireBeard: silverlight through winehq is only version 4.0. No gpu acceleration [18:20] maybe I just need to do a clean install [18:20] onionHead_: fine, but what does silverlight have to do with anything? [18:20] if you don't mind me asking [18:20] SonikkuAmerica: That's around when Unity starts to choke on my hardware. [18:20] netlar, gaps between the time-stamps and timeout error, stuff like this [18:20] FireBeard: netflix [18:20] TeamRocket1233c: It would. [18:21] netflix? [18:21] again, what are you talking about? [18:21] brainwash: and all of that is the boot process? [18:21] I never said anything netflix like [18:21] abased, abased, abased, abazee [18:21] I think you got me confused with somebody else [18:22] FireBeard: netflix uses silverlight not flash to watch movies [18:22] SonikkuAmerica: Meanwhile Cinnamon handles all that really well, albeit a little slow, meanwhile Xfce handles it like a champ, plus I kinda prefer Xfce's customization anyways. [18:22] netlar, some messages are added later on [18:22] onionHead_: so? [18:22] I really don't know what you are trying to say... [18:22] FireBeard: fyi only. [18:22] brainwash: there are lots of messages with 0 time stamps [18:22] I never said anything about netflix, mostly because we don't have that here in Holland [18:22] oh ok... [18:22] TeamRocket1233c: XFCE is great for GNOME 2 mourners. MATE is fine but I can't mess with it for some reason. [18:22] netlar, that's normal, skip them [18:23] ok [18:23] oh well, thanks for all the effort in trying to help me, everybody ! [18:23] FireBeard: can you streAm bbc. Its blocked in usa [18:23] brainwash: so look for stuff in dmesg that take lots of time? [18:24] SonikkuAmerica: It's also great for those that like to tweak the living heck outta their desktop. [18:24] netlar, or simply upload it [18:24] here? [18:24] TeamRocket1233c: KDE isn't too bad either, but it's resource-heavy. [18:24] netlar, pastebin or somewhere in the web [18:24] ok [18:24] SonikkuAmerica: Cinnamon's pretty good, and it's about middle-of-the-road on resource usage. [18:24] brainwash: let me boot again and see if I can get to tty [18:25] netlar, alright [18:25] hey i just saw this in my /etc/passwd on my server: irc:x:39:39:ircd:/var/run/ircd:/bin/sh and gnats:x:41:41:Gnats Bug-Reporting System (admin):/var/lib/gnats:/bin/sh - is this default or could the server have been hacked?

Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! [18:26] mush: Depends on what you installed. If you installed ircd, the irc user is pretty normal. [18:26] SonikkuAmerica: Oop! Heading to offtopic, got a little carried away. [18:26] mush: there's no ircd running by default though...

[18:29] Software Center does seem to work fine after starting it from terminal with sudo. [18:29] could this mean the server has been hacked? how would I check if there is any root-kits installed? [18:29] mush: It most likely means you just forgot what you've installed. [18:30] mush: if you're the only admin and there's software on there that you didn't install, then something is obviously amiss [18:30] mush: Whats the output of ls -lha /var/log/dpkg.log* [18:30] I'm looking for a way to check the state of the AC adapter (connected or not). Any clue?

[18:31] jrib: yep thats what gets me worried [18:31] bekks: i set this virtual server up just a few weeks ago [18:31] mush: my guess is you installed it and don't remember [18:31] something changed from 12.04 to 13.04. I was using "/proc/acpi/ac_adapter/AC/state" but that location doesn't exist anymore [18:31] mush: 79k is pretty much too much for just a few packages. [18:31] mush: I second jrib. [18:32] bekks: hmm.. I set this virtual server up just two weeks ago. 100% sure I have not installed irc, ircd or any proxy services [18:33] mush: The logs say something different. :) [18:33] How do i Install virtualbox with usb2 enabled . [18:33] ?? [18:33] andre: Install virtualbox, as usual. And install the extension pack. [18:33] on ubuntu [18:33] andre: Then, configure your vm to use usb2. [18:33] andre: On Ubuntu. [18:33] ? [18:33] bekks: ok well 79k does speak for itself I guess. is there a way to list all installed packages? [18:34] bekks: ok i did [18:34] mush: Thats a plain textfile. [18:34] andre: Did you install the extension pack? [18:34] oops yeah that was a stupid question [18:34] I can't seem to find any solution to this error from Software Center, tips anyone?

[18:38] bekks: the log file does not have any records of ircd or irc, only the stuff i mentioned plus sqlite3. the reason the log was so large was because i had to remove and reinstall mongodb [18:39] mush: Which still isnt a sign of your server being hacked. Did you check wether those entries where there on your fresh install? [18:40] mush: Personally, I'd say they are default entries. [18:40] bekks: got that Rodger that [18:40] bekks: and ummmm the nvidia drivers for ubuntu 13.04 [18:41] bekks: that is on a laptop though.? [18:41] andre: Errm? Forget about your host drivers when talking about a vm. [18:41] um! I tried to ask this over on #rhythmbox but it's dead... does anyone know of a way to edit/add album coverart? [18:41] bekks: nope did not check for that. guess i am just getting a bit paranoid :P [18:41] andre: In a vbox vm, the graphics adapter is some emulated device. [18:41] mush: From what I can see, they are default. [18:42] bekks: jap know that but im looking for the nvidia drivers for my laptop [18:42] bekks:not for the vm [18:42] !nvidia > andre [18:42] andre, please see my private message [18:43] Mewtini I don't see a way in RB [18:43] bekks: ok thanks :) one more thing though, is rkhunter still the best tool for scanning the system for root kits etc? [18:44] huh, there's not? I heard that there used to be a way to do it, but. [18:44] is bekks a bot [18:44] wt face [18:44] I think it was like ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox/covers or whatever but that was probably a lot older than 13.04 [18:45] andre: I'm not :) [18:45] o just thought cause of the bot response [18:45] what the file format of the media? [18:45] cybernetic [18:46] phoenixash wait, which media [18:46] the cover is a .jpg and the music tracks themselves are all .mp3 [18:46] aaaand *pheonixash [18:46] I assume you talking about music right? [18:46] yes [18:47] bekks: its not picking up my usb's [18:47] youll probaly find the image is embedded in the mp3 file [18:47] andre: Did you install the extension pack? [18:47] (it is Rhythmbox, after all :) ) [18:47] bekks: but they are in my ubuntu [18:47] bekks:yip i did [18:48] andre: And did you shutdown your vm, enabled usb2 support and started your vm again - all this after ensuring your user running vbox is in the vboxuser group? [18:48] pheonixash - ah, so there's no way to tamper with it or anything, then? [18:48] hi. where does ubuntu normally store default gateways? in /etc/network/interfaces? [18:48] I recently switched to Clementine and that can edit artwork else googles says use a specific app [18:49] huh what group [18:49] lost dot com [18:49] But Clementine's a KDE thing, isn't it? === huismon is now known as nate_h [18:49] forgot to mention I'm using Unity [18:50] I guess I could try some other players but I actually like Rhythmbox and its integration, so. [18:50] I'm going to attempt an upgrade from 12.10 to 13.04 (instead of clean install) and wanted to know if the upgrade overwrites the existing fstab and grub? === marco is now known as Guest76158 [18:50] it is but work well in unity and gnome shell [18:50] well its a qt app === Guest76158 is now known as DrDavid [18:51] ah, okay [18:51] Mewtini this might help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1386715 [18:51] hi all [18:51] bekks: i did restart and its telling me there is no usb 2 [18:52] bekks: wierd [18:53] andre: Did you add your user to the vboxuser group?

[18:54] bekks: I will do that now thansk [18:54] ks [18:54] * [18:55] zomeone can helpme to tellme the diferent ways to install Skype [18:55] DrDavid: goto the skype website and download the .deb file to install [18:56] DrDavid: What ^ said [18:59] after download it should i just doble click? [18:59] I would say that enabling partner repos and installing skype from there is better idea... [18:59] There were some problems which were fixed in that repos. [18:59] DrDavid: yes open the deb file and it will automaticly jump open software centre [18:59] LD_PRELOAD, tray icon and stuff... [19:01] !info skype [19:01] Package skype does not exist in raring === Rn0|AFK is now known as Rn0 [19:03] well... how come? https://paste.lugons.org/show/0LatEMbyUlgFupKGq6ei/ [19:04] ?

[19:06] thanks on the skype stuff is working already [19:06] bekks: still no luck === andre__ is now known as Guest70131 [19:07] bcdedit /set disabledynamictick true [19:08] it is not picking up my usb drivers [19:09] After doing what exactly? [19:12] Mewtini: Open the music files in EasyTag. Then, click a file and on the right switch to Pictures and press the green plus on the bottom to add one. Then use ctrl+A to highlight every file, and under the picture you added, press the tiny grey circle button! Finally, press ctrl+s to save the changes (or file>Save File(s)). Then the album art should appear in Rhythmbox. [19:12] I'm running 13.04 on a msi gx60 (A10 4600m, not the hitman edition). I was playing with setting some keyboard shortcuts and seeing what special buttons I could use in there, the user set p1 button (also Fn+F4) will show up as 0x78, but using p1 or Fn+F4 doesn't trigger the shortcut, somehow pressing just 'x' does. When trying these out though, I tried some that have other preset functions, like disabling/enabling the touchpad or the wire [19:15] bekks: o its andre [19:15] bekks: the vmbox [19:15] it is possible to install office on linux? [19:16] the owner want to have outlook cuz is more familiar to him [19:16] DrDavid: Just install libreoffice [19:16] i'm having a horrible time finding appropriate settings in ubuntu (12.04) ... I have two monitors, one in portrait. When i try to move the mouse between screens there is some sort of limitation that requires me to move the mouse at a certain speed to move between screens [19:16] DrDavid: And Outlook is designed for Windows only. [19:16] yes i have the libre ofice installed and was trying to install on wine [19:16] but not working [19:16] DrDavid: I installed Office through PlayOnLinux! (plain Wine didn't work) I don't know if Outlook works, but Word, Excel, and Access do (with problems), so it might? [19:16] several errors [19:17] ill try to explain then [19:17] DrDavid: None of these error can be fixed, since you need PlayOnLinux at least. [19:17] additionally, when i try and move from the bottom of the portrait screen to the main screen its impossible, it wants me to move far enough to the top of the secibd screen that it matches up with the first screen. So how can i turn off the delay between screens, and how can i make it jump from the bottom of the portrait screen to the bottom of the normal screen instead of having to move the mouse up ? [19:17] Hmm, one other interesting bit, using the P1 with a modifier key allows it to trigger the shortcut properly instead of triggering on 'x'. So for instance I can use ctrl+P1 or ctrl+Fn+F4 to open terminal. [19:17] yes is install also play on linux too [19:18] DrDavid: You need the software called "PlayOnLinux" to run MS Office on Linux. [19:19] just open and is installing fonts [19:20] ebernhardson: You know where the settings are? Go to all settings then displays and set Sticky Edges to off, that's what's stopping the mouse between screens. That second part I'm not sure about how to change, it's a consequence of using different screen resolutions with those drivers I suppose. [19:20] DrDavid: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16623407/screenshots/linuxoutlook.png It appears to be working in my PlayOnLinux! I haven't tried doing anything, though. [19:21] kunji1: hmm, ok i will look arround more. I had looked in settings->displays but all i get is this (also shows why the second issue is annoying): http://i.imgur.com/vDlzU3I.png [19:22] Charcoalcat: what that 4th icon with speaker package called? [19:23] google [19:23] http://askubuntu.com/questions/293663/compressing-big-files-into-several-files-ubuntu any suggestions? [19:23] ebernhardson: Hmm, I'm on 13.04 and yeah, I have one more option under those, it might be someplace else previously, lemme check if you can get to it in Compiz perhaps. [19:23] *facepalm* sorry guys wrong window [19:23] lotuspsychje: The one under Firefox? That's Konversation! It's an irc client. [19:23] (for KDE) [19:24] ebernhardson: Yeah, the most movement would be super obnoxious like that, it was bad enough for me using a 1152p with 1080p [19:24] Charcoalcat: ah yes i forget that one, im using xchat so many years now [19:24] *mouse, not most [19:25] Charcoalcat: can you set transparant window in konversation? [19:27] kunji1: on the upside, adding a second screen in portrait feels like adding between 2 and 3 more laptop monitors :) [19:27] lotuspsychje: I don't *think* there's a way in the normal settings! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=40560 According to this thread you can do it with xcompmgr? [19:28] Charcoalcat: tnx for checking, ill stick to transparant xchat :p === Tux_ is now known as Tux [19:31] please help i need to sort out my laptop and share files with other computers/laptops on my home network but for some reason i cant seem to see the other computer/laptops that ive got connected to my home network anyone help please [19:32] please help i need to sort out my laptop and share files with other computers/laptops on my home network but for some reason i cant seem to see the other computer/laptops that ive got connected to my home network anyone help please [19:32] !patience | darrell [19:32] darrell: 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/ [19:33] darrel: Does it have to be a home network, or do you just need to share files? === jagger is now known as jagger|away [19:33] *darrell [19:33] just share files with other computers and laptops on my home network [19:34] ebernhardson: What version of Ubuntu are you using? It should help in the search to see how to disable sticky edges. It's apparently been in display settings since 12.04 at least: http://askubuntu.com/questions/119281/what-is-the-function-of-the-sticky-edges-on-off-setting-in-displays though I know that it's not there for you from the screenshot you showed. === jagger|away is now known as jagger [19:35] darrell: other computers use ubuntu or windows? [19:35] darrell: You could use the folder sharing option on Dropbox! It lets you put files in a folder and they'll sync to all of your computers that have Dropbox, so that might be what you need? [19:35] i want to share videos with my smart tv thats on my home internet network [19:36] i already have dropbox but my smart tv dont have the app dropbox yet [19:36] installed Lubuntu on old XP (2003?) computer the youtubes are strange green & red, small and distorted. Anyone have an idea? [19:36] kunji1: Was it not in appearance under the second tab (launcher?) for a recent version or two? [19:36] darrell: over wifi or cable? [19:36] both [19:36] darrell: Dropbox isnt needed / usable at that point. You have to setup a media server, like mediatomb or minidlna [19:37] Your TV probably only speaks DLNA [19:37] anyone know any free Internet cafe software? [19:37] So you're going to need something which can serve it, as bekks mentioned. [19:37] joec1: install flashplugin? [19:37] rmarker: Whats a "Internet cafe software"? [19:37] Apsu`: Hmm, it could have been, I don't recall, ebernhardson, could you check there? [19:37] ive tried mediatomb and minidlna but my smart tv dont seem to pick up ubuntu it is dlna [19:37] darrell: is it DLNA compatible [19:37] darrell: minidlna works fine here. [19:37] darrell: nm [19:38] darrell: So does mediatomb. [19:38] darrell: Might need to use a CIFS/SMBFS share, then. [19:38] darrell: what about just sharing a folder [19:38] thats right DLNA [19:38] Depending on your TV [19:38] I wasn't sure if it had already been installed, the youtubes play only goofy [19:38] Have you checked your TV's specs by looking up the model number? [19:38] joec1: That old of a machine might have flash hardware accel accidentally enabled, when it's not fully supported. [19:39] !info flashplugin-installer | joec1 [19:39] joec1: flashplugin-installer (source: flashplugin-nonfree): Adobe Flash Player plugin installer. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 11.2.202.280ubuntu0.12.10.1 (raring), package size 6 kB, installed size 136 kB (Only available for i386; amd64) [19:39] Generally that behavior is a color-space issue with acceleration or an overlay. [19:39] ive tried sharing a folder from ubuntu but my smart tv dont seem to pick ubuntu up its ok with windows but i uninstalled windows 1 mon th ago [19:39] darrell: a samba share? [19:39] And if that's the case, it's not something you can configure into working; just need to disable acceleration (or enable it, alternately) [19:39] darrell: Then try to configure minidlna correctly. [19:39] joec1: you can try installing lubuntu-restricted-extras aswell, or try google-chrome [19:39] hi [19:39] truecrypt: what is the command line for creating a encrypted volume [19:40] raven: dunno, try #truecrypt [19:40] raven: Have you checked the manpage or googled? [19:40] !encrypt | raven [19:40] raven: For information on setting up encrypted private directories (8.10+) see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory [19:40] ive just tried samba share still nothing my tv cant seem to see it [19:40] darrell: Are you sure you're not firewalling off inbound communication to your box? [19:40] darrell: Most likely your TV does not support CIFS/SAMBA. [19:40] darrell: You might be filtering the traffic your TV needs to use. [19:40] the same on chrome & midori [19:40] darrell: yeah try removing security from your router for a second [19:41] darrell: see what happens [19:41] Not the router, you're on the same LAN [19:41] ill shut up im confused [19:41] lol [19:41] joec1: flash not good then or grafix card too old [19:41] darrell: Use a paste site, and paste the output of "iptables-save -c" [19:41] Let's see if you've got any filtering that's relevant to DLNA/CIFS/SMBFS [19:41] darrell: Does your TV supports CIFS/SAMBA at all? [19:41] joec1: Did you try disabling/enabling acceleration for flash? [19:42] joec1: Look in /etc/adobe/mms.cfg [19:42] joec1: i had an older acer with lubuntu, never been able to make flash work on it (for ubuntu) [19:42] i dont have any security turned on on my router plus ive turned off the firewall still nothing and ive installed minidlna but cant find it in ubuntu to config anyone please need help [19:42] darrell: Answer my question please. [19:43] darrell: Do what I asked so we can see what rules, if any, are actually loaded and present. [19:43] darrell: And people are already trying to help you, as you noticed. [19:43] darrell: doesnt your tv got a http:// adress you can browse to? [19:43] lotuspsychje: How will that help making his TV display a movie from another computer? [19:44] its supports DLNA heres my tv modal 47LA740 [19:44] Hello. How can I remount an HD in read-write mode? I've experimented with mounting a disk image on a 2nd internal HD (which is auto-mounted via an entry in /etc/fstab) and I must have done something wrong, as at some point the HD was remounted in read-only mode. [19:44] darrell: And which maker is it? [19:44] LG [19:44] You guys sure have some fancy TVs... mine needs cables, period, end of story, though XBMC on a Rasberry Pi works wonderfully to remedy that. [19:44] https://www.lg.com/us/tvs/lg-47LE5400-led-lcd-tv [19:45] hi there [19:45] anyone here? [19:45] anyone have a walkthrough for installing nvidia drivers in 13.04? [19:45] everything else seemed beautiful & fast, still pictures on web sites are beautiful, videos awful [19:45] joec1: Did you do what I asked? [19:45] !nvidia | v0lksman [19:45] v0lksman: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [19:45] for nvidia drivers i installed on mine [19:45] you have to close xserver === tjbiddle_ is now known as tjbiddle [19:46] so many peoples writing on here i cant seem to keep up with the support some people are writing sorry people [19:46] darrell: Run "sudo iptables-save -c" in a terminal, copy/paste the output into a paste site (see the topic for an option), and paste the link to it in here. [19:47] You said it worked on Windows, presumably with the same router and router config, so let's verify your Ubuntu install isn't blocking the traffic. [19:47] i'm sorry guys, but how do I enter in a new channel? [19:47] bekks: on some boxes or tv/satelite you can remote view channels/movies tru http [19:47] zeandre: /join #channelhere [19:47] I install outlook with the play on linux and say that was succesfull but cant find the software [19:48] I'm a noobie, i'm afraid at the speed this is scrolling I haven't done anything yet read the replies, and I new to chatting too I will try to but I'm not sure I under stand the steps [19:48] DrDavid: I'd recommend Evolution over wrapping Outlook :P [19:48] DrDavid: you didnt make a shortcut so you gotta go to the folder.. [19:48] DrDavid: pfft real men use thunderbird =P [19:48] joec1: Does /etc/adobe/mms.cfg exist? [19:48] ity, i have a problem with my soundcard ubuntu [19:48] the_misfit: Unless you need to talk to EWS or do calendaring :( [19:48] DrDavid: What does the can't find the software message look like? Can it find any other Office softwares in the suite? [19:49] when i use headphones, speakers doesn't turn off [19:49] i went to alsamixer and there's no option automute [19:49] so i booted into a ubuntu live 13.04 on my laptop and i dont see any wireless hardware [19:49] DrDavid: Also http://email.about.com/od/linuxemailclients/tp/Linux-UNIX-Email-Clients-fo---.htm might be worth checking for the owner, in case any are similar enough. [19:49] can anybody help me? [19:49] it has an intel wireless nic [19:49] zeandre: Might need to change your sound card driver options. [19:49] have 2 acc on thunderbird already but he wanted the outlook anyway and look into C drive and was not even microsoft folder only internet explorer and the block notes [19:50] zeandre: If it's an hda, the model parameter can often solve that. [19:50] DrDavid: what you prob did, if the install was successful, was not make a shortcut within playonlinux.. so you need to go into your home folder and do ctrl H and find .playonlinux and then uhh [19:50] default/ or someting [19:50] i've searched in the internet and i can't find a solution [19:50] zeandre: Start by identifying your sound card driver; "lsmod | grep snd" is a good starting point. [19:50] gueriLLaPunK: did you check additional drivers? [19:50] zeandre: If you see snd-hda-intel, for instance, you have an HDA. [19:50] i changed alsa-base.conf [19:50] I looked under etc/ I don't see etc/adobe anything [19:50] !sound [19:50] If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. [19:50] where do i check, lotuspsychje [19:50] i install my drivers [19:50] and nothing [19:50] http://pastebin.com/T2CFymfX [19:51] yes i have an HDA [19:51] joec1: You looked under /etc/adobe? [19:51] gueriLLaPunK: software centre/software sources/tab additional drivers [19:51] joec1: are you on about /etc/adobe/mms.cfg ? [19:51] DrDavid: If you're checking in the regular Wine folder, I'm pretty sure PlayOnLinux makes it's own Wine folders somewhere! [19:51] lotuspsychje, how can i check the software center if i cant get online? :( [19:51] joec1: If it doesn't already exist, you can create it. [19:51] *its [19:51] my sound card model is IDT 92HD75B3X5 [19:52] thnks ill lock for it [19:52] brb [19:52] joec1: http://superuser.com/questions/434762/disable-hardware-acceleration-for-flash-player-in-linux has two approaches. [19:52] how do i set up minidlna then its installed but i cant find it [19:52] !minidlna [19:52] hmm. [19:52] darrell: Yeah, you're running a lot of firewall rules. [19:52] gueriLLaPunK: you can add drivers from cd offline too [19:52] One bump I won't ask again for a few hours, I know laptop keys are a pain: I'm running 13.04 on a msi gx60 (A10 4600m, not the hitman edition). I was playing with setting some keyboard shortcuts and seeing what special buttons I could use in there, the user set p1 button (also Fn+F4) will show up as 0x78, but using p1 or Fn+F4 doesn't trigger the shortcut, somehow pressing just 'x' does. When trying these out though, I tried some that ha [19:52] darrell: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MiniDLNA [19:53] bekks: Don't think that's at all the issue. Did you see the pastebin? [19:53] thanks bekks [19:53] DrDavid: When you install something through PlayOnLinux, it's meant to ask you to put a shortcut into PlayOnLinux! Did it not do that? [19:53] Apsu`: Yeah. [19:53] zeandre: what is the output of: wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && chmod +x ./alsa-info.sh && ./alsa-info.sh --upload [19:53] darrell: After configuring, prior to testing, disable your firewall rules. [19:53] I do not see etc/abobe I opened file manager PCmanFM clicked up arrow opened etc/ there is no adobe shown [19:53] darrell: To test, you could clear your firewall for the moment. Your chains don't look like UFW, so I'm not sure what you're using that's setting them up for you [19:54] joec1: Follow the link I gave you. You can create the file. [19:54] kunji1: are there any bugs reported? [19:54] i dont have any firewall installed sorry wait there yes i do firestarter ill uninstall that now brb === jagger is now known as jagger|away [19:55] no didnt put a shorcut into play on linux, i found the outlook.exe but dont open [19:55] darrell: Uninstalling may or may not also clear the rules. You need to tell it to clear them, or I can tell you what to do manually... [19:55] darrell: No. [19:55] ActionParsnip: Not that I'm aware of, what part did you think might have warranted a bug? The part about 0x78 triggering on 'x'? [19:55] darrell: You dont need to uninstall it. Just disable your firewall. [19:55] yes manually do fine [19:55] DrDavid: just install it again and make a shortcut this time and remove the other virtual.. whatever they call it. At this point its not even worth it =P [19:55] according to this documentation, my wireless card is included, but i cant see it [19:55] I can't find that link or maybe I'm just misunderstanding sorry [19:55] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsBroadcom [19:55] joec1: sudo mkdir /etc/adobe; echo “OverrideGPUValidation=true” | sudo tee /etc/adobe/mms.cfg [19:55] my firewall is disabled [19:56] I have the BCM4312 [19:56] kunji1: possibly [19:56] HOW to put the Shorcut of the OUTLOOK.EXE [19:56] darrell: And now DLNA seems to be working? [19:56] DrDavid: it prompts you when its done installing [19:56] !broadcom | guerillapunk [19:56] guerillapunk: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [19:57] no dlna dont seem to be working [19:57] ActionParsnip: Hmm, I'll look around, I was only really concerned about putting back my wifi toggling as top concern though. Because the P1 (0x78) isn't bound to anything by default. [19:57] hi [19:57] where am i meant to see if its working or not as i tried my tv and it wont pick ubuntu up [19:57] hgfhff [19:57] geurillapunk: seems you can use either driver [19:58] darrell: Did you configure the minidlna server then? [19:58] darrell: Or did you just install it? [19:58] ty ActionParsnip [19:58] like i said where do i config minidlna as its installed but i dont see how to config it [19:59] drdavid: are you wanting to connect to an Exchange sever? [19:59] sorry im quting bye JOKERS ON HERE trust me [19:59] brainwash: I just had something strange happen with the boot up [19:59] darrel: did you read ubottu's link [19:59] i have now idea of EXange server [19:59] netlar, tell us [19:59] darrel: its all there all you have to do is read, try it [19:59] was just told by the owner to install it cuz need it [20:00] darrell: If you want to manually clear all filter table rules, you can do (with sudo or as root): iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT; iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT; iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT; iptables -F; iptables -X [20:00] I got side tracked and could not come back to the computer, so I turned it on to boot up and it took about 15 sec [20:00] drdavid: if you arent connecting to an Exchange server, why would you NEED Outlook? [20:00] The -P's are important since your current default chain policies are DROP, and if you -F/-X with DROP policies your box will be unable to communicate in/out [20:00] Then, I rebooted and it took 15 again [20:00] think he say cuz is for a institution or something that can only configure it with outlook [20:01] ActionParsnip: if the guy wants outlook let him install outlook =P [20:01] drdavid: Weird [20:01] But then I shut down and turned on to reboot one more time to check it, and again over 2 min with a blank screen and could not go into tty [20:01] DrDavid: Evolution can talk to Exchange servers. [20:01] netlar, a miracle? :D [20:01] the_misfit: just a weird requirement really [20:01] brainwash: not sure, maybe it is intermittent [20:02] netlar, that is odd indeed, maybe some sort of race condition [20:02] it say that is install again in no time was installed already now says conect to office online and close [20:02] brainwash: want me to paste in the dmesg? [20:02] i i can click on close now [20:02] netlar, yes [20:02] DrDavid: its not volunteers job in here in any rate to give you support on playonlinux [20:03] drdavid: ahh microsoft online [20:03] brainwash: how much of it, there seems to be a lot [20:03] netlar, the whole log i guess, we can skip parts while checking it [20:03] DrDavid: What version of Office are you trying to install? 2010 is the one I have working. [20:03] after sudo mkdir etc/adobe what? [20:03] the_misfit: do you mean i should stop asking? [20:04] Charcoalcat: is the 2007 [20:04] brainwash: here you go http://paste.ubuntu.com/5652231/ [20:04] DrDavid: i dunno did you make a new.. virtual.. damn what does pol call it. [20:04] DrDavid: or install into the same one as the one you cant find [20:05] the_misfit: Virtual machine? Virtual drive? [20:05] how to make a shorcut? to where? [20:05] drdavid: https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=office%20365%20ubuntu%20evolution&source=web&cd=2&ved=0CDAQFjAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fweb.ysu.edu%2Fgen%2Fysu_generated_bin%2Fdocuments%2Fbasic_module%2FOffice_365_Mail_Client_Configuration_Guide_Evolution.pdf&ei=xlKNUf__N-Kl0wWgooDYCA&usg=AFQjCNFka6qyPQrIYfkl5U6YPxgbb0L46A&bvm=bv.46340616,d.d2k [20:06] i hate google search [20:06] ActionParsnip: Have you heard of URL shorteners? [20:06] sonikkuamerica: yes but it simply shouldnt do it [20:06] ActionParsnip: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5652231/ [20:06] sonikkuamerica: duckduckgo doesnt.....its so annoying [20:07] ActionParsnip: thanks [20:07] Well, goo.gl and bit.ly do [20:07] netlar, not sure about it, maybe some external usb device might cause the random delay [20:08] you can !bang a url and shorten it on DDG [20:08] theres !tinyurl [20:08] and !longurl [20:08] brainwash: maybe remove them and boot up with just the cpu and not all the attachments? [20:08] no bitly i guess [20:08] sonikkuamerica: i usually use tinyurl but in this case google came up with the goods, such an annoying "feature" [20:09] netlar, this dmesg was generated after a long or short boot? [20:09] ActionParsnip: Don't you hate when that happens. [20:09] brainwash: that was after the last one, that was long [20:09] ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/TMi4XLed This using xev, pressing 'x' then the P1 special laptop key, then Fn+F4, which should be the same as P1. It seems that x is 0x78, but why P1 sets as x isn't clear to me. It seems that setting the combo, Ctrl+P1 , while it does not trigger on 'x' it will trigger on Ctrl+'x' So it's basically x equivalent for some reason except when used on it's own? === ubuntu is now known as Guest53452 [20:09] sonikkuamerica: loads [20:10] brainwash: so that is recreated every time I boot up? [20:10] DrDavid: In PlayOnLinux, click configure! (gear icon) You should see virtual drives on the left. If you click on one, there's a button to make a new shortcut. [20:10] netlar, yes, the dmesg log file does get replaced on every boot [20:10] kunji1: do you have the latest biosñ [20:11] hey folks [20:11] brainwash: does seem like there is a lot going on there on the boot, is that pretty normal? [20:11] netlar, the entries containing "delay: estimated" might be cause by some usb device [20:11] Charcoalcat: thanks to your help will continue working monday see you here folks cuz soon is time to leave here [20:11] is it easy to insall ubuntu when I use ati graphic card [20:11] like are drivers easy to come by? [20:11] netlar, absolutely normal [20:11] alex_fun: which ati gpu? [20:11] DrDavid: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16623407/screenshots/POLshortcut.png Also, good luck! [20:12] brainwash: I was having these boot problems , and did a fresh install, so this is straight Ubuntu [20:12] ActionParsnip: 5770 [20:12] gamers card :D [20:12] ActionParsnip: I do not, generally the recommendation from MSI was to not update unless the changes in the change log addressed an issue you were having. The only change in the new BIOS addresses fan noise due to some piezoelectric effects that I have not experienced. [20:12] alex_fun: they all are..... [20:12] netlar, so the boot problems re-appeared after a fresh install? [20:12] ok ok node taken [20:13] alex_fun: will be fine [20:13] brainwash: yes [20:13] netlar: Pure, unadulterated Ubuntu? :D [20:13] ha ha yes SonikkuAmerica [20:13] kunji1: makes sense [20:13] which ubuntu is most stable? [20:13] and safe [20:13] Charcoalcat: i see your screen shot thanks to take your timne [20:13] are there hardened releases? [20:14] netlar, so it's most likely caused by some hardware error/glitch [20:14] netlar, or faulty driver [20:14] alex_fun: not even close to a hundred releases. Precise is the latest LTS designed to be solid [20:14] brainwash: funny how it would all of a sudden get me two quick boots [20:15] I tried installing Lubuntu restricted extras, that did not appear to affect problem. I have to break off now, thanks for the help. This was my 1st time ever in any chat room. I had spent a considerable time already in google on the glitch, anyway thanks, this great [20:15] alex_fun: They are all stable except Saucy which is prerelease [20:15] netlar, yea, really odd [20:16] brainwash: well let me reboot and try different things with the attachments [20:16] netlar, alright [20:16] ActionParsnip: and can I disable root passwd login and make it work only with remotely hosted .ppk key? [20:16] hello, I'm having a problem with installing restricted drivers, whenever I try to do it, it hangs and then I think has a kernel panic, I'm running the most recent version of Xubuntu [20:16] brainwash: and really thanks for helping [20:16] I saw in amazon ubuntu its default option [20:16] netlar, sadly the problem is not solved yet =S [20:16] i mainly want to close all ports except 22 [20:17] and use ppk key [20:17] :D [20:17] brainwash: still appreciate [20:17] anyone have a solution? [20:17] alex_fun: root is disabled by default. your first user is in a group named 'sudo' which you can use to get admin access when needed [20:17] Should the WiFi toggling be assignable somewhere in Dconf? [20:17] Anyone know how I can read values from kdewallet from the CLI without installing any new programs? I need to get the wifi password back but I can't login to KDE for some reason [20:17] kfkeith: what is the output of: lsb_release -sc [20:18] ActionParsnip, just a second [20:18] ActionParsnip, "precise" [20:18] alex_fun: you can configure iptables to block all incoming but on port 22 and install openssh-server [20:19] kfkeith: and which video chip do you have? [20:19] ActionParsnip, I'm not sure === jagger|away is now known as jagger [20:19] this is for Wi-Fi not video cards though [20:19] Broadcom STA [20:19] kfkeith: run: sudo lshw -C network [20:20] kfkeith: what chip is it? [20:20] BCM4311 [20:20] !broadcom [20:20] Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [20:21] sharperguy: http://askubuntu.com/questions/22154/how-to-reset-a-password-from-kwallet Would the suggestions here work for you? [20:21] ActionParsnip, thanks [20:22] Charcoalcat: basically I can't login to KDE at all but I need to be able to retrieve a stored wifi password [20:22] now I have another problem [20:22] "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. " [20:23] whenever I try to do that, it tries to install the driver, and I get kernel panics [20:23] can anyone help me install davmail for ubuntu 12.04 64 bit? === jono is now known as Guest28737 [20:23] kfkeith: How do you identify the "kernel panics"? [20:23] !aptfix | kfkeith [20:23] kfkeith: If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » [20:23] to work w/ thunderbird/exchage specifically. [20:23] my question is - how the fuck do i start? [20:23] !language | mgodzilla [20:23] mgodzilla: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. [20:24] I installed an x86 version of ubuntu on my x64 machine a while back because it was my only disk at the time, and now I want to know how to overwrite the old installation without hurting my personal files [20:24] mgodzilla, no cursing here [20:24] mgodzilla: is davmail like gmail etc? [20:24] sorry. [20:24] bekks, screen goes blank and all I see is a bunch of error messages and I can't type [20:24] kfkeith: A kernel panic would let your keyboard LEDs blink. [20:24] it opens up ports to relay mail via imap w/ exchange servers. [20:24] one applications. [20:24] kfkeith: And which error messaged do you see? [20:24] is there a way to get the location from the file browser? it is useful for when you are browsing and using the terminal [20:24] Stryker: do you have your /home on separate partition? [20:24] cd directory can become a bit tedious [20:24] bekks, I'm not sure, but I guess it's not a kernel panic [20:25] :( [20:25] Atlantic777: no I don't, but do you recommend that configuration? [20:25] How come when I log into kubuntu now it just logs me back out again straight away? [20:25] sharperguy: " The only solution I've found is to log in via console, then run "startx." It brings me into KDE and all is well."? (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1462745) [20:25] Once the Ubuntu installer gets to the "Installing system" portion of the exercise, can I yank the external CD-ROM drive I've been installing from? [20:26] Stryker: yes, it's recommended to have at least separated /home and / (root) partitions if you want to have shared /home folders (read this as personal settings and files) between multiple installations. [20:26] mgodzilla: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=1652155 [20:26] sharperguy: There are zillion of reasons for that. One possible reason is a full filesystem. [20:26] Stryker: this way you can reinstall whole system, and even install another distro but still use your olde /home partition. [20:26] Lasse-? [20:26] mgodzilla: http://turanct.wordpress.com/2013/01/04/use-thunderbird-with-microsoft-exchange-through-davmail/ [20:26] Charcoalcat: I just get a black screen when i do that [20:27] Atlantic777: any suggestions on the best way to do that without permissions errors? [20:27] Stryker: or you can even have 2, 3 or more systems installed which will use the same /home. :) [20:27] i should've started w/ the mozilla forums..instead of sourceforge. [20:27] sharperguy: startx is outdated. Restart the lightdm service nowadays. [20:27] thx. ActionParsnip :) [20:27] mgodzilla: http://www.ronakg.com/2010/07/thunderbird_lightning_davmail_ubuntu/ [20:27] mgodzilla: duckduckgo.......simple searches === resure is now known as Guest71960 [20:28] yeah - i had it workin' w/ ubuntu 12.04 32 bit. [20:28] Lasse- not only reinstalling xserver-xorg did not solve the problem but made it bigger: now the system thinks my computer is a laptop [20:28] ok I have a full home partition [20:28] ActionParsnip, I tried what the thing the bot said to fix apt, and it crashed yet again [20:28] :( [20:28] but i cant remove any files [20:28] there seems to be a specific problem w/ 64 bit and a swt file/directory. [20:28] sharperguy: Why not? [20:28] Stryker: permission errors? If you are asking how to make separated /home partition in your current system, I would recommend you rsync. [20:28] apparently you have to have space to delete things :S === Guest71960 is now known as resuremade [20:28] sharperguy: Did you try to log in in console mode? [20:28] Stryker: it's a tool for copying many files with some nice features like transfer over ssh, preserving permissions, on the fly compression etc. [20:28] I even tried "cat "" > big_file" [20:28] bekks: yes [20:29] I'm so frustrated [20:29] sharperguy: And did you find some files wasting space? [20:29] it just says "write error: no space left on device" [20:29] yes [20:29] if I tried to do dpkg --configure -a it still crashes [20:29] reinstalling xserver-xorg and then installing nvidia-current made ubuntu think my computer is a laptop [20:29] krfkeith: try a reboot [20:29] ActionParsnip, I have [20:29] sharperguy: It says that when doing what? [20:29] I just did [20:29] Atlantic777: that looks pretty nifty! [20:30] Stryker: of course, there are always a catch, some distributions use UID and GID starting from 1000 and some from 500 (or something). You don't really need to take care of it, ubuntu and other similar distros will use UID/GID starting from 1000 and everything will be fine. ;) [20:30] it still says to do dpkh --configure -a which makes it crash [20:30] *dpkg [20:30] bekks: well if i delete things it still says 100% usage afterwards, and if i try to just cat an empty string over the file it wont let me [20:30] sharperguy: try: cat /dev/null > filenamehere [20:30] sharperguy: Then you have to remove more files, instead of cat'ing. [20:30] shareperguy: could also uninstall unused kernels [20:30] I removed a few GB of file [20:30] sharperguy: Which wasnt enough then. [20:31] how much space do I need? [20:31] Stryker: and one more thing you should take in mind is, if you have multiple users on that systems, GID/UID have to match. I mean, if user1 has uid (user id) 1001 in ubuntu1, and that user1 in ubuntu2 has uid 1002, you can make a mess. [20:31] sharperguy: for what? [20:31] sharperguy: That depends on the filesystem size. [20:31] to log in [20:31] I can't get anything to work [20:31] brainwash: It appears to be my external hard drive [20:32] sharperguy: a litle for GUI, you can always drop to TTY1 and login there and free space [20:32] Hmm, I know the wifi button works, because I can assign it to other functions and it is recognized as XF86WLAN by xev, shows up as WLAN in the keyboard shortcuts thing. Just need to figure out how to assign it back to it's original function. [20:32] krfkieth: did you try the reboot? [20:32] oh, here's something, when it crashes, the cursor is still there, and if you hover over where a textbox was (you can't see it though) it changes accordingly [20:32] ActionParsnip, yes [20:32] sharperguy: Please give us the line of df -h showing your filled up filesystem. [20:33] krfkeith: what is the output of: sudo apt-get -f install [20:33] ActionParsnip: "/dev/sda6 145G 134G 3.6G 98% /home" [20:33] krfkeith: use a pastebin to hold the text [20:33] I dont really understand the math there [20:33] ActionParsnip, "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. " [20:33] that's all [20:34] Atlantic777: just double-checking: the plan is making a /home partition and putting my files into it from this installation using rsync. Is there a way to configure the new installations to use it as the default /home? [20:34] sharperguy: You have to have at least 5% free. [20:34] and if I do that, it crashes [20:34] krfkeith: then run that and pastebin the output [20:34] I can't, it crashes [20:34] bekks: but how does 145-134 = 3.6? [20:34] there's no way to copy the text [20:34] sharperguy: /home being fullish should be ok [20:34] sharperguy: filesystem overhead. :) [20:34] ActionParsnip: well it isnt ok [20:35] sharperguy: the partition has a journal using some space [20:35] my / still has ~20% free [20:35] Quick Upstart question. I've created a conf file under /etc/init/ Should it start this service when the server boots? https://gist.github.com/CharlieSu/dbd4c289222862eb3630 [20:35] sharperguy: Your / is out of interest :) [20:35] sharperguy: ok which browser do you use? [20:35] Stryker: that's right. You move your personal files to separate partition and then in installer you choose advanced mode ( the option is called "something else" probably) and then choose root partition, check it for formating and select your partition with personal files and settings, make it's mount point as /home and make sure it's not checked for formating. And that's it. [20:35] krfkeith: Does it crash if you use a different terminal, too? [20:36] Charcoalcat, what do you mean? [20:36] ActionParsnip: chrome [20:36] *chromium [20:36] krfkeith: Like if you're using gnome-terminal and it crashes, does another like Konsole also crash? [20:36] brainwash: the external hard drive is formatted msdos, would that matter? [20:36] sharperguy: both? [20:36] Charcoalcat, hold on, I'll try [20:36] thanks, Atlantic777 [20:36] you are the definition of what this irc is all about [20:37] ActionParsnip: chromium [20:37] is Lynis a good audit tool for a production ubuntu server? [20:37] netlar, not sure about, guess you should rephrase your initial question and maybe someone here knows a solution.. or google :) [20:37] Stryker: thanks, come again. I'm on the IRC for about half of my life. :P [20:38] sharperguy: does it keep its cache in ~/.cache like chrome does? [20:38] Atlantic777: So you're < 30 :) [20:38] bekks: 20, sharp. [20:38] bekks: and irc is > 20, afaik. [20:38] Charcoalcat, I can't install other terminals because apt is broken [20:38] Atlantic777: Hmm, then I'm on IRC since you were a little boy ;) [20:38] I've been on IRC since 2000, I'm 20, I was 7 then [20:39] afternoon! [20:39] ActionParsnip: yeah ok i just deleted that [20:39] afternoon utfans05 [20:39] bekks: kids huh :) [20:39] I have an external hard drive from iomega, that appears to be slowing boot up dramatically, the external hard drive is formatted with msdos. Does it need to be formatted differently? [20:39] still wont let me log in [20:39] ActionParsnip: ;) [20:39] sharperguy: how much space now? [20:39] krfkeith: What if reboot and log in in console-only mode? [20:39] *if you [20:39] 4.4G (3%) [20:39] sharperguy: 3% is less than 5%. [20:39] sharperguy: Still too less space. [20:41] sharperguy: could try bleachbit and run it in cli to clear stuff [20:42] ActionParsnip: It says 95% used now but i still cant get in [20:43] ActionParsnip: I cant install anything without logging in because network access depends on the GUI [20:43] sharperguy: Then clean up until 6% to be sure. [20:44] sharperguy: it doesnt. that is just a gui for the network manager service which is set to run automatically [20:44] sharperguy: we can fix network in cli, if you need it... [20:44] bekks: it says 93% now [20:44] still cant log in === brad_ is now known as krfkeith_ [20:44] http://www.gumtree.co.za/cp-cats-in-de-waterkant/half-bread-cat-5-years-old-482421023 [20:44] okay I figured it out, sort of [20:45] sharperguy: Then investigate the logs why you cant log in. [20:45] there's a segmentation fault [20:45] whenever I try to run dpkg --configure -a [20:45] I just need a saved wifi passoword [20:45] it crashes the whole networking system [20:45] hi how do i install something from the quantal backports? [20:45] sharperguy: are there any files in [20:45] ~/.local/share/Trash [20:45] and dpkg and apt are completely broken [20:45] I can't do anything with them [20:46] I can't install any packages or uninstall or anything [20:46] or am i better off installing from apt-get without backport and then building from src [20:46] please help :/ [20:46] sharperguy: why not just connect using an Ethernet cable and view the router config.... [20:46] krfkeith_: I'm just curious, how did you do that? :D [20:46] ActionParsnip: not anymore [20:46] Atlantic777, do what? [20:46] Anybody know why Unity Dash takes exactly 5 seconds to open any time I click it? [20:46] I tried it in a tty [20:46] sayd: Go to Software Sources (Software and Updates) and enable "Unsupported updates" [20:46] krfkeith_: broke dpkg and apt stuff [20:46] i even have trouble in gnome2 [20:46] gnome3 [20:46] ActionParsnip: I have 9% free now and i still cant login [20:46] SonikkuAmerica I am on cli [20:46] and I have to put my passowrd in twice for any X session [20:46] Atlantic777, I have no idea, all I did was try to install broadcom STA drivers [20:46] deadweasel: is it the same with a fresh user? [20:46] to start [20:46] and then everything broke [20:47] I'll check, ActionParsnip, thx [20:47] krfkeith_: "Suggested command i ssudo apt-get -f install"? [20:47] sharperguy: tried the Ethernet method? [20:47] *is sudo [20:47] krfkeith_: that has nothing to do with dpkg, unless there are some evil .deb packages with that evil driver. :) [20:47] ActionParsnip: how will ethernet let me log in? [20:47] ActionParsnip, yes, same delay, also have to put password in twice.. [20:47] Charcoalcat, you mean "sudo apt-get -f install" ? [20:47] surely 13GB is enough free space? [20:48] if I do that, I get the same error, that I need to run dpkg --configure -a [20:48] sharperguy: Investigate the logs. [20:48] krfkeith_: well, it's broken already. It can't hurt... let's try to bring dpkg to life, at least. Which ubuntu do you run? [20:48] bekks: what logs? [20:48] Atlantic777, xubuntu, latest release [20:48] sharperguy: because you arent using wifi to connect. Just use a web browser to view the router config in the router rather than a stored password [20:48] krfkeith_: so, xubuntu 13.04? [20:48] sharperguy: /var/log and ~/.xsession-errors [20:48] Atlantic777, correct [20:48] ActionParsnip: i dont have access to the router [20:49] krfkeith_: can you run this: apt-cache policy dpkg [20:49] krfkeith_: and post it to paste.ubuntu.com ? [20:49] Atlantic777, I'll try [20:49] sharperguy: i see. any other systems that connect to it? [20:49] krfkeith_: Did you try deleting the dpkg lock? [20:49] bekks: I see "x-terminal-emulator: Fatal IO error: client killed" [20:50] Charcoalcat, I don't know how to do that [20:50] Charcoalcat: it segfaults... it's not the lock. [20:50] sharperguy: The log consists of far more. [20:50] sayd: Use your favorite CLI text editor (I prefer nano) to edit /etc/apt/sources.list by uncommenting the correct line. [20:50] SonikkuAmerica ok I think its already uncommented [20:50] bekks: there is only 5 lines and that looks like the only useful one [20:50] i wasnt sure if there was a way to specify pulling from the backports [20:51] When I go into ctrl+alt+F1, some stuff from the top is missing and the resolution is very low. How do I fix that? I'm using a widescreen monitor on 12.10. [20:51] sharperguy: Then check the other logs. [20:51] Atlantic777, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5652387/ [20:51] that's what happens [20:51] geekstein: there's nothing to fix. Try usiing htop or "ps aux" [20:51] bekks: any one in particular? [20:51] sayd: deb{-src} http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring-backports main restricted universe multiverse [20:51] <<< It's those two lines. [20:52] Atlantic777, I did that, and the top stuff is still missing. With other cli programs like elinks I can't see the menu bar. [20:52] sharperguy: Logs that changed since you cant log in anymore. [20:52] sharperguy: if you make a fresh user and put it in the sudo group, can you get in ok? [20:52] geekstein: wait, we are talking about top, the system monitoring tool? [20:52] sharperguy: also make sure your current user is the owner of ~/.Xauthority [20:53] krfkeith_: you use i386? [20:53] Atlantic777, yes [20:53] hhm E: Unable to locate package libglib2-dev [20:53] Atlantic777: I'm talking about the top of the screen being cut off, and this is also the case when using cli programs like "top", "htop", or "elinks". [20:53] krfkeith_: argh... I wanted to send you my dpkg executable, but I'm running amd64 [20:53] Atlantic777, darn [20:53] and the resolution is much lower than I'd like. [20:54] krfkeith_: well, I coould unpack the right .deb and try :) let's hack it :D [20:54] I'm using 12.04 lts and the computer and home folder are suddenly on the desktop. How do I remove them? [20:54] ActionParsnip: xauthority is ok, how do i add a user to the sudo group? [20:54] mchlbhm, are the still in the default place too [20:54] Is IOGear generally a safe wireless adapter brand for *nix? [20:54] mchlbhm: please, post output of this command to paste.ubuntu.com : "ls -lh ~/Desktop" [20:54] So, I'd like to have higher resolution in ctrl+alt+F1-F6 as well as being able the whole screen without some part(s) being cutoff. [20:54] sharperguy: sudo usermod -a -G sudo username [20:54] ActionParsnip: I seem to be able to log in with the new user anyway [20:55] wait, hold on [20:55] is mobile sempron 64-bit? [20:55] utfans05, yes top left corner [20:55] krfkeith_: maybe, but I'm prettty sure you do use i386 system. [20:55] because I might be needlessly running a 32-bit OS [20:55] Atlantic777, oh I know [20:55] sharperguy: ok, cool. You may want to recirsively chown your first users home to your first user, its good to check [20:56] utfans05, its like I accidently made them appear [20:56] mchlbhm, i ment are your files still in /home and duplicated in /desktop/home [20:56] but, I was thinking maybe I could try 64-bit anyway [20:56] which twitter apps integrate with the Ubuntu Online Accounts thing? I added a Twitter account and I get notifications in unity, but I wonder if there are apps that also integrate [20:56] ActionParsnip: might have tried that before but ok [20:56] utfans05, lol oh... I have no idea. Still new to this [20:56] radix: which release [20:57] ActionParsnip: I'm on 13.04 [20:57] This is the wireless adapter I wanna get, and it should work fine in Ubuntu and *nix in general based on what one of my dA buds said. http://www.amazon.com/IOGEAR-Compact-Wireless-N-Adapter-GWU625/dp/B0044U8JDM [20:57] do me a favor and do a ls -a /Home and see if all the files are still there [20:58] radix: it's probabli empathy [20:58] probably* [20:58] utfans05: The "home" is with a small "h" or else it won't work [20:58] utfans05, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5652419/ [20:58] SonikkuAmerica, true [20:58] radix: seems to be called friends-app [20:59] !info friends-app [20:59] friends-app (source: friends-app): Aggregator for all your social network accounts.

How do I do that? :D [21:07] mchlbhm, you can to go your terminal and cd /Desktop then do a ls to make sure your in the right folder and then rmdir the folder name you want to remove [21:07] utfans05: It's just a shortcut, though, isn't it, not a proper folder? [21:07] argh, I have something to say, again... /Desktop shouldn't exist [21:07] mchlbhm: You can turn off different desktop icons in MyUnity!

I think you can do it in Tweak in Gnome? [21:12] sharperguy: its the same service, just a kde gui. [21:12] Charcoalflip, good idea! [21:12] You guys trying to make your DEs look good or something?

I completely forgot about that :D [21:14] mchlbhm: ^o.o^ [21:14] sharperguy: you could su to your first account then launch the wallet app [21:16] ActionParsnip: I dont think you can do that, it just gives me an X11 error [21:16] Atlantic777 no because it says to run a command inside it that i wouldn't have [21:17] sharperguy: gah, though itd be ok. if you logoff can you now login as the first user?

[21:19] correct, i guess i can just apt-get install xinetd? [21:19] question about top... if www-data is in the list, does that mean that user is actively downloading a page? so like you might have 50 users on your site but only one www-data is that correct ? [21:20] mchlbhm, Well, Xfwm's the window manager for the current version of Xfce, and it has kind of a built-in compositor.

[21:26] sharperguy: i suggest you make a note, or set it to something memorable in the router [21:27] anew: no, it doesn't have to mean that someone is downloading something. If www-data is present, it can just mean that there's a www server which listens on some port. [21:27] anew: i believe it is the user which apache runs as [21:27] so www-data is not a gauge of how many users are actively on the site ?

[21:34] major_: just install gnome, select it from the menu where you put your passowrd in [21:34] or cinnamon, that one is nice too [21:35] !notunity | major_ [21:35] major_: Ubuntu 11.10 and higher use the !Unity desktop environment by default. To use GNOME Shell instead, install the "gnome-shell" package and investigate "gnome-tweak-tool". For GNOME Fallback mode, which is similar to GNOME 2, install "gnome-panel". Both packages will place entries in the Sessions dropdown.

[22:17] i'm using playonlinux [22:17] why my sound icon and battery icon disappeared from the panel? am using xubuntu [22:17] well there's your problem. [22:17] jenkins_, what are you trying to play? [22:17] Emif- : There is an actual xubuntu channel who might know a little more on that subject [22:17] because depending on if it's available natively you might consider running the native client [22:17] anything, I've tried things on steam that say they're for linux and I get pretty much the same error from everything. [22:18] the client from the software center? [22:18] thx [22:18] yeah the client from the software center runs natively [22:18] when you use playonlinux, it's actually using wine under the covers [22:18] Atlantic777: maybe this is a problem Thermal 0: ok, 100.0 degrees C [22:19] some funk with losing focus when pressing up arrow key [22:19] and then requires that you install the windows version of the game [22:19] 100°C is OK [22:19] ??? [22:19] bleh. [22:19] on an apple keyboard if that helps [22:19] ok. I'm pretty sure I tried it from the software centre first but I'm not sure if my nvidia drivers are even functioning properly. [22:20] i'll give it a quick try. [22:20] Why do we use mv to rename files? [22:20] file__: why not? [22:20] jenkins are you running on an optimus laptop? [22:20] anybody know how to change a .tar 32bit app to a 64bit app? its xampp [22:20] WeThePeople, you'd need to recompile it.

[22:21] I am running an acer that has the 330 GT Turbocache [22:21] Hi. I'm having some difficulty getting xorg to autoconfigure for my Nvidia GeForce 650M graphics chip with the proprietary nvidia driver. Also, doing a manual xorg.conf causes problems too: the card is undetected; I have verified that the card is present with lspci. Thank you in advance. [22:21] chiluk, dr_willis, do you guys know of a program that can do this [22:21] 330M === Bry8Star_ is now known as Bry8Star [22:21] WeThePeople, no.. [22:21] kkerwin, still having issues? [22:21] WeThePeople: you RECOMPILE the source to be 32bit or 64bit [22:21] utfans05: Oh hai! [22:21] ok [22:21] jenkins_, is it a laptop? [22:21] so a gcc [22:21] yes [22:22] utfans05: Well, yes. But, I've learned quite a bit since last night. [22:22] kkerwin, you were runnign an i7 sandy bridge right? [22:22] and 32bit should run on 64bit machines with the right libs installed i belive [22:22] Jenkins does it have optimus graphics capability? i.e. uses intel then switches to nvidia. [22:22] not 100% sure. [22:23] cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "model name" [22:23] utfans05: First, xorg will autoconfigure. I tried doing a fresh install of ubuntu, and saw that it used the nouveau driver. I also noticed that it looked for the nvidia driver, so I installed it, hoping that it would get pulled in automagickally. It did not, according to the Xorg.0.log. But, lsmod shows it as being loaded. [22:23] jenkins_, run the above ^^ [22:23] utfans05: Yes [22:23] utfans05: Actually, Ivy Bridge. [22:24] Dr_Willis: Does it move the file when it "rename" it? [22:24] kkerwin, yeah i couldnt remember which one, im an amd guy. im thinking that you might have to disable the onboard graphics in order for the nvidia stuff to work. There may be an option in your bios to turn it off.

[22:24] that's what I get sorry for the flood [22:24] utfans05: Right now, I am operating without DRI. It seems that simply **installing** the nvidia driver prevents nouveau from working. And then, uninstalling nvidia doesn't allow nouveau to load. [22:25] jenkins_ ok you don't have optimus graphics. [22:25] utfans05: Hrm. Ok. I'll give that a look. [22:25] file__: for all intents and purposes, all "mv" does is rename the file [22:25] for some reason my screen res will not go above 1024 x 768, I just installed a KVM and for the other computer I did have to bump the res back upto 1280 x 1024 but my Ubuntu system (12.04) will not let me go back to 1280 x 1024...any suggesgtions? [22:25] file__: moveing or renameing a file. basically just alters the inodes/pointers.. [22:25] what would it say if I did?

[22:26] select the 'current' driver [22:26] Sorry I had to go for a while, if anyone thought of something about re assigning the wireless toggle while I was gone, it would be good to know. Or even in general how those toggles are handled, the one of enabling/disabling the touchpad even shows an onscreen notification like for brightness or volume. [22:27] jenkins_, install it... then install the steam out of the software center. [22:27] Installing Jupiter on Ubuntu 12.04.2 seems to have fixed my screen blanking issue, so thanks very much to whoever it was that suggested this to me (Can't remember, sorry). [22:27] Either that, or disabling the Dim Screen option did it. Maybe I should investigate that some more.. [22:28] it indicates the driver as already installed. [22:28] jenkins_, add me as a friend on steam *(steam username is npoc) [22:28] aye aye.

[22:29] so then /My\ File/ ??? [22:29] nice. [22:29] I bought that indy game Receiver [22:29] It seems to be exactly what I was looking for (Better power management for my Asus notebook). Do you know of a more suitable alternative? [22:29] play it on my win vista rig, and now I want to have it here. lol. it's fun as hell [22:30] michaelPW: http://jupiter.sourceforge.net/ is that not what the announcement on the right is about? [22:30] fellayaboy: yes unless there is a space int he name after File you would have to escape it. [22:30] utfans05: No such option. :( [22:30] fellayaboy: Also try not to use spaces in linux use _ or - makes life easier. [22:30] histo so then i should use /My\ File/ ?

[22:34] histo same as Monitor Setting [22:34] utfans05: That is, using a hand-written xorg.conf forced me down to 640x480 resolution. It was a step backwards, and it got in the way with the autoconfigure/hotplug stuff that X was trying to do. [22:35] ??? [22:35] DJRWolf: And this worked prior to installing the kvm?

[22:38] bug 1086710 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "package grub-efi-amd64 2.00-7ubuntu11 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1086710 [22:38] looks like mad stuff [22:38] :) [22:39] funky, If you really can't boot a usb look at plop. [22:39] Demonishi: Why are you installing grub in this fashion? [22:39] I'm running Ubunto 11.10 and would like to upgrade to 12.04, but do-release-upgrade wants to remove dnsmasq. That's idiotic. Can I prevent that somehow? [22:39] *Ubuntu [22:40] DJRWolf: Can you check your output without the KVM and just confirm that the other resolutions are available via the same cable [22:40] histo: Because this is the error that appears during a dist-upgrade from 12.04 -> 12.10 Unfortunately, instead of pressing cancel, I accidentally selected reboot. [22:40] histo: So now I'm on a live boot. [22:40] kkerwin type xrandr into your terminal and see if it gives you any higher resolutions tat you can use temporarily until we can get this fixed [22:41] my X refuses to start. this is Xorg.0.log if anybody can help me http://paste.ubuntu.com/5652687/ [22:41] #ubuntu-steam [22:41] histo switch the KVM cables? or take the video cable out of the KVM and connect it strait to the ubuntu box? [22:41] oops [22:41] utfans05: I'm presently running at 1600x900, but on the intel drivers. [22:42] kkerwin, this is probably the issue, from your Xorg.0.log file [ 18.614] (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found). it's seeing the device but not finding the correct driver.... which card do you have again? [22:42] utfans05: 650M [22:43] kkerwin, 32 bit or 64 bit? [22:43] utfans05: 64 [22:43] Oops, live-usb boot. excuse me. [22:43] looks like the current driver is not the correct one for the task 304 doest support the 650m. you might want to go grab 319.17 from the nvidia site and see if that fixes it [22:44] utfans05: Alright. [22:45] wilee-nilee: so I use yumi to install plop [22:45] kkerwin, from the nvidia website for the 304 driver it supports GeForce 500M Series (Notebooks) [22:45] GeForce GTX 580M, GeForce GTX 570M, GeForce GTX 560M, GeForce GT 555M, GeForce GT 550M, GeForce GT 540M, GeForce GT 525M, GeForce GT 520M, GeForce GT 520MX [22:45] plpbtin.iso Install with cd [22:46] utfans05: Makes sense. [22:46] lemme know if this fixes your issue [22:47] utfans05: Will do. Will likely be incommunicado for a bit. Going to be around? [22:47] yeah [22:47] utfans05: Thanks. Back in a few.

[22:52] why not just run synergy? [22:53] digi99: is the system a dns server? [22:54] utfans05: No joy; then again, I didn't try creating an xorg.conf since I tried the same last night (with the same driver from the website, no less), and still got the low rez with no DRI. [22:54] utfans05: +1 for synergy [22:55] hi [22:55] need help with wired network disconnected problem [22:55] ??? [22:56] ellow?? [22:56] devilinside: details please, how can we possibly advise.... [22:56] any one there? [22:56] devilinside: also, try waiting more than 4 seconds for a reply [22:56] yes, r8168 is not being loaded, inspite of it being present in modules and deleted r8169 [22:57] chiluk, you wouldn't be back by any chance would you? [22:57] utfans05, Aren't a KVM and Synergy opposite ideas? (I've not seen the original issue) KVM allows multiple machines to use a single monitor/kb/mouse where synergy allows a single keyboard and mouse to span two machines that each have their own monitors. [22:57] devilinside: if you manually load the module, is it ok? [22:58] hi - I'm trapped with an apt-get message "Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution)" [22:58] but this command doesn't seem to fix anything [22:58] manually load it?? how? [22:58] utfans05: In case you return while I'm out; I have an idea, and have to stop X.

[23:03] actually it is workin when it wants to work. it suddenly disconnects and says wired network disconnrectede and you are now offline. [23:03] tgm4883, yes that is true [23:04] on some forum i read about moving back to r8168, so thats what i was doing. [23:04] utfans05: Ok, that didn't work. I tried to use nvidia-xconfig, but I'm back at low 640x480 rez. Also, the Xorg.0.log is interesting ... one moment, and I'll show you. [23:04] but it does not seem to identify 68. [23:04] kkerwin, ok [23:06] utfans05: http://pastebin.com/9Xz4vD7S [23:06] tgm4883, it is not working like it should. it suddenly disconnects the wired network.

This, after I had uninstalled it. Now, I just blacklisted it. Let me see if it's still causing problems. [23:28] also my laptop has WiMAX, how could i tell if thats working, how to interface with it to connect if i get service [23:28] kk [23:28] Prock1, that one im unsure of [23:28] hexacode: I just do: dd if=THE-ISO of=/the/device bs=4M [23:29] utfans05: Ok.

[23:33] kkerwin, its failing to load the nvidia kernel [23:34] utfans05: Ok. What does that mean? [23:34] kkerwin, researching [23:35] kkerwin, does jockey show which driver you are using? [23:35] hexacode sudo blkid [23:35] thanks [23:36] utfans05: Have a look at lines 1467-1476 in my paste. [23:36] utfans05: Checking on jockey. [23:36] utfans05: Negative on jockey. [23:36] kkerwin, what driver does it say you are using? [23:37] utfans05: Jockey doesn't list a driver as being used. [23:37] kkerwin, are their any drivers that it says you can use? [23:37] utfans05: Yes. [23:38] utfans05: Several, but they are not labeled distinctively. I can't tell what version they are by looking at them. [23:38] kkerwin, screenshot? [23:39] utfans05: Actually, I take that back. I think that I have the 304, 310, and 313 drivers. [23:39] utfans05: Not installed, but available for install. [23:39] kkerwin, try enabling the 310 drivers. i do believe that one supported your card [23:39] utfans05: Ok. Should I try and uninstall the file I downloaded from the website? [23:40] kkerwin, with enabling the driver in jockey that should override 319 [23:40] utfans05: Also, it seems that despite blacklisting nouveau, nouveau still seems to get loaded. I think that is the problem. [23:41] kkerwin, its more than likely cause from it seeing 2 vga devices [23:41] well got to kill xerver to install the driver, bbl to say how it went [23:41] kkerwin, that didnt make sense. its more than likely because its seeing 2 vga devices. [23:42] ^ [23:42] Ok. Installing the 310. [23:43] Also, it seems that there are two 310 drivers in jockey's list. [23:44] kkerwin, one is likely the stock one the other is an updated one [23:45] utfans05: Installed finished; restarting.
