From this link http://gitorious.org/meego-developer-tools/powertop/commits/master, the tags order looks like v1.9 > v1.13, but I don't know if the tags are in order? [02:57] tomreyn: right, my kern.log and sys.log are unusually large (about 4.5 GB each). i'm fairly certain that it was the firewall dropping full logging into them. anyway, i disabled the firewall logging... [02:57] lefftte: if by "app" you mean a package, then you can use software center or synaptic [02:58] does anyone know of a package. that would let me pasue/play youtube videos from the system tray in the sound (ubuntu 13.04) [02:58] tomreyn: i will have a try tks [02:59] walltender: i assume github just does an alphabetical sort there. [03:01] yofun: don't know what player you're using ... but many players & browsers allow you to play/pause with the "keyboard spacebar" [03:02] Tex_Nick: yes but i want to be able to pasue/play with my systrau === euphoria|jacked is now known as euphoria [03:02] Hi guys…… anyone know, how to increase swap file space on ubuntu?

Anyone have experience using bumblebee for nvidia optimus cards? [03:08] Hi peeps [03:09] zup [03:09] is there an Intel 64 download for Ubuntu of does the amd64 do both ? [03:09] kkerwin: have you tried this, yet? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bumblebee [03:10] tomreyn: Yes. The problem with it is that the stock nvidia-current driver will quietly and "helpfully" remove OpenGL files. [03:10] iamgiam, what? [03:10] oh [03:10] there is a torrent for Ubuntu 64 here http://www.ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads [03:10] tomreyn: The "incantation" in the tutorial I listed is supposed to get around that. But, it's failing. === irv_ is now known as irv === Screedo_ is now known as Screedo [03:11] !netsplit [03:11] netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit [03:11] I ask as on the main dl page it only gives 2 options . x86 or 65 and then downlods the amd64.iso [03:12] iamgiam: I dunno, try both, they're small dl's [03:13] kkerwin: what do you mean by "stock nvidia-current driver"? [03:13] the 13.04 amd64 just hangs. the x86 works but I would prefer the 64 bit version. its maybe a graphics issue but unsure. [03:13] Either the package that one can install through ubuntu, the ppa I found, or the file downloaded from nvidia's website. [03:13] kkerwin: it seems to be that the ubuntu.com how-to involves using a packag called bumblebee-nvidia === nrdb is now known as 66MAAD3PY [03:14] kkerwin: i see, well then i'm afraid i can't help. [03:14] tomreyn: Thank you. === qos is now known as qos|away [03:15] tomreyn: Actually, I'm going though some logs now. Are you familiar with a python package called "apport"? If so, what provides it, please? [03:15] iamgiam: by "intel 64", are you referring to IA64 ? [03:15] Help [03:15] to install wireless driver [03:16] iamgiam: if so, use the x86 one [03:16] bit of a noob here its an intel core i5 [03:16] I downloaded the source code [03:17] iamgiam: then you should be able to use the x86_64 / amd64 one [03:17] While write in the folder: make install [03:17] kkerwin: apport it ubuntu's bug reporting utility [03:17] tomreyn: Found it: python-apport [03:18] tomreyn: And it still didn't solve my problem, damn. [03:18] /lib/modules/3.2.0-40-generic/build [03:18] ok thanks so the blank screen is more likely a graphics issue. joy lol. will try some of the switches to get passed it. [03:18] don't exist file or directory [03:18] jose__: before you try to build modules yourself manually, you should try to use a packaged build. [03:19] kkerwin: i also don't see how apport relates to bumblebee? [03:20] How is that done? [03:20] jose__: which driver are you trying to install, for which hardware, and why? and which ubuntu version are you running? [03:20] tomreyn: It doesn't. Not to bumblebee. The script that I'm attempting to troubleshoot is for installing an nVidia driver. It was failing, and the last message that it had before failing in the logs was an import error on the apport python module. [03:21] Ubuntu 12.04 [03:21] Realtek RTL8188CE [03:21] kkerwin: i see. i guess that's something i can't help with, i'm afraid. [03:21] How do I remove self compiled program without "uninstall" option? [03:22] No problem. I figured that finding the right python module would be easy enough, and I found it. Problem was, it didn't fix the larger problem. Thanks again, though. [03:22] Don't work the wireless [03:23] HP mini [03:24] jose__: thanks for aswering two of the questions i asked. do you also want to answer the other two? which driver are you trying to install, and why?

[03:30] jose__: remove all the files you downloaded and extracted. then do this: sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-cw-3.6-precise-generic && sudo modprobe rtl8192ce [03:30] jose__: http://askubuntu.com/questions/277169/module-rtl8192ce-not-found-howto-reinstall-ubuntus-realtek-driver-on12-04 [03:30] zerozero: what version? [03:30] jose__: you should only turn to driver downloads from some websites as a last resort, most of the time there are working packages. [03:31] 12.04 [03:31] walltender: not supported, just like the installation method you chose. [03:31] ok [03:31] this dongle has no linux support on its offical site [03:32] so got a client..ubuntu 12.04 on her laptop. everything working fine for a few weeks..then out of the blue.she runs systemupdate right..now every time she shuts the thing down, i have to yank the battery and discharge the power and then sometimes it will start [03:32] zerozero: you could try http://askubuntu.com/questions/98844/how-do-i-get-a-tp-link-tl-wn722n-wireless-card-working [03:33] Hi, I was trying to apt-get dist-upgrade and it mentioned libc-2.13.so needing to be out of /lib so I moved i to my home directory and now my system seems pretty much broken [03:33] Is there anyway I can fix this? I'm still connected via ssh [03:33] Or how can I install the windows 7 drivers for the TL-WN722N wireless dongle? [03:33] presario cq56 is the model blink codes dont match anything that compaq has on there website..it just blinks continously [03:33] zerozero: ath9k_htc is the driver module you want [03:34] Thanks yofun [03:34] anytime :) [03:34] thanks tomreyn [03:35] Hi [03:36] Is there anyway I can fix this? I'm still connected via ssh [03:37] zerozero: generally this was probably a bad hardware choice, see the comment on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsTP-Link [03:39] could someone please tell me how to fix whatever is supposed to be responsible for launching firefox from thunderbird/pidgin/etc? [03:39] Yeah it says "waste of money." I seen on a forum that it was recommended on BackTrack 5 for out-of-the -box support, but they lied... [03:40] got it cheap on eBay tho...

[03:42] yofun: Nope mv depends on libc.so [03:42] BUT while waiting I remembered you could set libary/binary paths [03:42] agh [03:42] So I just did export LD_LIBRARY=$(pwd) [03:42] did it work? [03:42] Yes [03:42] nice [03:42] :) [03:43] hello i'm trying to access apache2 server 's index page through my external IP of my system.It work for internal IP and localhost .Please guid me how to do that .Thanks [03:43] New SSH connections weren't allowed though and my server has been getting DDOS attacks throughout the day [03:43] ah:( [03:43] Does anyone recommend any wireless dongles with full reaver and aircrack support? Prehaps something like the RTL8187 chipset? [03:44] Whenever anything tries to open a link in Firefox, I get the error, "Firefox is already running, but is not responding."

Problem that I'm having now is that my computer is still injecting the nouveau driver even though it is blacklisted. [03:46] the default desktop edition of ubuntu, what is it? Unity desktop? [03:46] calligar: Yep [03:46] yofun: and somehow i broke it by moving the files back to /lib [03:46] kk, thx [03:46] ha PandaFoar fix it again? :P [03:46] reset the path? [03:47] New question: Does anyone have an xdg-open that doesn't fail at live? [03:47] yofun: How so? [03:48] PandaFoar: what you did earlyer export LD_LIBRARY=$(pwd) [03:48] Don't work wireless :( [03:48] wont it do it again? [03:48] yofun: It will not [03:48] oh :/ why not? [03:48] ls: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [03:49] Anything that depends on C is giving the same error [03:49] :( hmmm [03:49] Help [03:49] wow, uninstalled xdg-utils and it's still broken [03:50] I need driver for wireless [03:50] export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/root/libBack/lib/ [03:50] Is that the correct command for setting multiple paths in a variable?

Keep getting "error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" [03:59] whenever I try and run most commands [04:03] Hi, I was trying to apt-get dist-upgrade and it mentioned libc-2.13.so needing to be out of /lib so I moved i to my home directory and now my system seems pretty much broken. Keep getting "error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" whenever I try and run most commands [04:03] PandaFoar: reinstall, or try to fix it from a live cd. somewhere you made a big mistake there. touching libc*.so is never a good idea. nor is running apt-get dist-upgrade unless you are following some official how-to. [04:04] tomreyn: I still have shell access, I managed to get everything working before using LD_LIBRARY_PATH but now that isn't working [04:06] I haven't deleted the libraries either, they are still present just in different folders [04:07] try running /bin/busybox [04:07] no such file [04:07] /bin/static-sh ? === msx is now known as Schopenahuer [04:08] Nothing [04:08] <_anARCHist_> any one ever have the issue where ubuntu server 12.10 wont connect with a static ip [04:08] PandaFoar: /usr/lib/initramfs-tools/bin/busybox ? === Schopenahuer is now known as msx [04:08] no iniramfstools folder [04:09] PandaFoar: can't help you there [04:10] _anARCHist_: most likely. but that's not one but many different possible causes for the result you're describing. [04:10] _anARCHist_: so you should provide a more detailed description of the problem, ideally containing error messages. [04:11] <_anARCHist_> it was working at on point. [04:11] <_anARCHist_> then it stoped after updates [04:12] _anARCHist_: so i assume the problem is that the system cannot connect to the internet or some other network it is connected to, right? do you still have access to this system, though? if so, by which means? [04:12] tomreyn: Any way to move files without mv? If there's an alternate way to read files I could echo $(command to read here) >> libraryfile.so [04:13] or make symbolic links without ln [04:13] <_anARCHist_> i can connect with in the sytem [04:13] <_anARCHist_> full access [04:13] PandaFoar: you could try cp or cat. but i really think your system is hosed and i don't feel like trying to support you at this point. [04:14] _anARCHist_: so you have keyboard and monitor attached to the computer and you are next to it or something? [04:14] <_anARCHist_> yes [04:15] <_anARCHist_> i tried dhcp it worked for a little bit at one point. but when it static it fails [04:15] _anARCHist_: then check /var/log/syslog - it should say why it failed to connect or what went wrong. === NimeshNeema is now known as NimeshNeema_ [04:17] _anARCHist_: also look at the output of "ip link show" and "ip addr show" to see whether the interface is up and whether an ip address is assigned. [04:18] <_anARCHist_> ifconfig eth0 up then ifconfig shows [04:18] <_anARCHist_> eth0 but no ip [04:20] _anARCHist_: try this: grep -C10 ': link up' /var/log/syslog* [04:21] <_anARCHist_> ok give me a few minutes [04:21] it should linst the line from syslog where youthe interface was brought up, with some context.

[05:11] denelius: i would recommend it just incase something happens you wont have to fool around with trying to find the culprit, its one less thing youll have to look into [05:11] Once I set up an MTA for email, is their a gui program available to view email? [05:12] gordonjcp: i want to use IDT HD Audio [05:12] gordonjcp: but ubuntu uses the wrong driver for it [05:12] booky: you can use thunderbird [05:12] gordonjcp: it shows up as intel hd audio [05:12] theperfectpunk: Intel uses the correct driver for whatever chip you have [05:12] theperfectpunk: there are only about four different types of sound card in the world [05:12] booky: its built into ubuntu from launch, if you look in the top right hand corner there is a mail icon, if you click on it, it will guide you through the setup [05:12] gordonjcp: i am running an AMD chipset [05:12] utfans05: So, could I just get with with just an MTA and thunderbird? [05:13] theperfectpunk: does the sound work? [05:13] booky: i do believe so [05:13] that was my thinking - thank you for the help utfans05, i think i am in good shape re dms - i will no doubt be back soon [05:13] gordonjcp: yes but the sound in windows 8 is far better [05:13] denelius: if you have any other questions just come on back. [05:13] ? [05:14] utfans05: I know there are spam filters and virus filters, and programs which allow me to access my mail from anywere on the web, but I'm only doing this for my website. [05:14] theperfectpunk: "better" in what way? [05:14] gordonjcp: i heard somewhere that some configurations options in pavucontrol will appear if one installs the correct drivers [05:14] The users would just be me. [05:14] booky: you should be able to get to it from thunderbird [05:15] gordonjcp: First is the Volume leveling [05:15] theperfectpunk: there's only a couple of different drivers, because there's only a couple of different sound cards [05:15] gordonjcp: i just need the volume leveling and surround options in pavucontrol === wce is now known as abc5678 [05:16] utfans05: thanks, I'll give it a try.

[05:21] theperfectpunk: ubuntu identified your sound driver and it load other as codec [05:22] savio: is there anyway to get dolby advanced audio in ubuntu? [05:22] theperfectpunk: if you blacklist the driver, it won't load *any* driver for that device [05:22] well, unless you add another one [05:24] theperfectpunk: there should be let's see till then keep patients [05:25] savio: my notebook speakers are dolby advanced audio v2 certified, and the sound kinda sucks in ubuntu as compared to windows 8.

Is there a way to just reset my mouse? My issue is that sometimes when I bog down my PC too much my mouse will cease to move around, it will still click on whatever is in front of it and right click to pull up a small menu but I can't move it to where I like. The problem can be solved by rebooting my PC but that's annoying, is it possible to just reboot my mouse? [06:37] Guest35364: There are always people in this channel. Try asking your actual question and if anyone can answer, they will. [06:37] ya pas des français ici [06:37] mkeirn89, Is the computer swapping?

Merci. [06:38] mkeirn89: Does unpluggin and re-inserting the mouse help? [06:38] any one using sparky Linux O/S ??? [06:38] mkeirn89: And do you see any error messages in dmesg when this happens? [06:38] Jordan_U It's a laptop, so I'm not sure. Using the keyboard function to turn the mousepad off and on does not help. Is dmesg a terminal command? I'm not super computer savvy, I'm afraid. [06:39] Guest35364: This channel is for Ubuntu support only. For other distributions try their respective channels, or ##linux. === Guest35364 is now known as MACJONES [06:39] wilee-nilee I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you mean :) [06:39] mkeirn89: Yes, "dmesg" is a terminal command that prints messages from the kernel (a lot of output). [06:40] need help, my browser has no sound but openarena does [06:40] whats up what is ur ubuntu q's [06:41] i need to get my sound working for all applications [06:41] je suis nouveau sur linux [06:41] Jordan_U Well, I found the lots of output! I'm not sure how to read any of it, though, and I'm not sure how to scroll up and down either, unfortunately. (lacking mouse function right now and I haven't figured out my keyboard command for scrolling in my terminal [06:41] wilee-nilee: I am not sure but , when I tried to edit grub 2 last time I think I saw nomodeset already, I will check again but if it is there what else should I look into ?

Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. [06:42] bluelf1, nomodeset would not be there unless you put it there, this s a low graphic boot to get in and update, upgrade and check for drivers. [06:43] Jordan_U The terminal I'm using is Konsole, if that helps at all. [06:44] mkeirn89: You can run "dmesg | less" to get a scrollable output. You can also run "dmesg | pastebinit" to post the output to http://pastebin.ubuntu.com, and then you can post the link to the output here for us to look at. [06:44] wilee-nilee: OK, I have to reboot, I will tell you what happened. Thanks for help [06:44] mkeirn89: Pess the 'q' key to quit less. [06:44] Jordan_U Is there anything I should worry about as far as information that could make me vulnerable in that error log? [06:45] mkeirn89: No. [06:46] Jordan_U I don't have pastebinit installed and I don't have sudo access due to another issue :/ [06:47] I think I can find another way around it, sec... === tjbiddle_ is now known as tjbiddle [06:48] Hello. How can I find and reclaim "lost" space on an HD? I had problems with one HD and deleted a backup-image from it (with the size of about 1 TB). Then I had to run fsck on it, which corrected problems... But now it seems the 1 TB are still claimed but the file is gone. [06:48] Mrokii: you can try to use gparted on it and reformat that partition if there is no data that you want to keep on it [06:48] Mrokii: Does this filesystem contain your root filesystem? [06:49] Mrokii, Is there a hidden trash? [06:49] utfans05: There is data on it and I need to use this HD to backup things. [06:49] Jordan_U: No, it's a backup-disk. It just contains data. [06:49] Jordan_U Okay, I'm installing pastebinit [06:50] wilee-nilee: I'm not sure what you mean by hidden. There's a folder named ".Trash-1000", but it's only about 9.5 GB big. [06:51] wow, what happened with spambots? [06:51] Mrokii: OK, then a "du -h /path/to/mountpoint" likely won't take too long (because there probably aren't too many files), to see if that matches close to the amount of used space that "df -h" reports for the FS> [06:52] Mrokii, A nffs, it can have a system volume information and recycle.bin folder [06:52] Jordan_U On the brightside, I'm very good at navigating with just a keyboard now. [06:52] how can i make my sound system for all users [06:53] Jordan_U http://paste.ubuntu.com/5653616 [06:54] Morph4me: so nice that it highlights errors too! tnx again for the vim tip [06:55] mkeirn89: Do you know if suspend works reliably on this machine? [06:55] lotuspsychje : anytime [06:56] Jordan_U I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you mean :( [06:56] wilee-nilee I don't see a cycle.bin folder [06:57] Morph4me: http://oi42.tinypic.com/2vt8hvq.jpg [06:57] mkeirn89: Have you tried to "sleep" this machine before? [06:57] nice [06:57] Jordan_U No but shall I give it a whirl? [06:58] Morph4me: how does it know to pick up errors higlight? [06:59] mkeirn89: Yes. Just be aware that your computer may or may not fail to resume, so close any apps with important files open first. [06:59] well someone was thinking that designed it :P [06:59] Jordan_U Thank you so much for all your help. [06:59] mkeirn89: (If it fails to resume you'll need to reboot the machine) [06:59] Jordan_U: What should I look for? There are still a lot of files on that disk and the list doesn't seem to be sorted by size. [06:59] Mrokii: The last line of output should be a grant total. [07:00] Morph4me: you know colortail too? [07:00] nope [07:00] !info colortail | Morph4me [07:00] Morph4me: colortail (source: colortail): log colorizer that makes log checking easier. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.3.3-1 (raring), package size 24 kB, installed size 144 kB [07:00] Morph4me: Did the command finish and return you to a prompt? [07:01] Morph4me: i use it to colortail -f /var/log/syslog.1 in realtime, pretty nice aswell [07:01] Jordan_U Mouse works, system rebooted just fine. [07:01] Jordan_U: Maybe I've found it. The second to last line says that the folder "lost+found" is 990G big. [07:01] ok gotcha you have been tweaking lol [07:02] Morph4me: now my packages are complete tnx to you :p [07:02] yw , enjoy [07:02] Jordan_U Well, not rebooted but returned from suspend. And that's much faster then rebooting!

[07:24] netlar: you might wanna check the logs too see what the problem was [07:25] ok [07:29] lotuspsychje: this all started because when I attach an external hard drive, it makes the boot up almost 3 min long [07:30] netlar: what brand and how many gig?

[07:36] netlar: i formatted the 2nd 1tb after i installed ubuntu on main drive [07:36] netlar: but mine was attached sata, not external usb [07:36] lotuspsychje: I was thinking of reformatting it [07:36] it is in nfts format now [07:37] netlar: i think that would be a good idea, maybe do a tail -f /var/log/syslog.1 and plug in the drive [07:37] netlar: see what errors you might get on the drive when you attach [07:38] lotuspsychje: you mean during the boot process? [07:38] netlar: no you can do it right now if you want [07:38] ok [07:41] sorry still a noob, not sure how to run that command, it tells me no such file [07:42] netlar: browse to /var/log and type ls [07:43] done [07:43] netlar: maybe its syslog [07:43] http://askubuntu.com/questions/254479/make-firefox-only-use-gtk-theme-on-browser-chrome-but-ignore-on-websites super win [07:43] oh ok, yes i have a syslog [07:43] netlar: ok then tail -f /var/log/syslog [07:43] before i plug in the external drive?

[07:51] lotuspsychje: there was an airflow temp error on the disk, just says it failed in the past [07:53] lotuspsychje: maybe I should just reformat [07:53] i dont know on win7 it was normal but my laptop felt and i broke lcd and hard died so i try booting only live usb i have i will try leater whit win7 live usb but i need to download it first [07:53] netlar: yeah good idea, if you use the hd for ubuntu try ext2 [07:54] lotuspsychje: I am in the disk utility and there are only two options [07:55] netlar: try smart data and test [07:55] 'Compatiable with all systems and devices (MBR/DOS)' and 'Compatiple with modern systems (GPT)' [07:56] lotuspsychje: Everything says it is ok, no errors [07:57] netlar: well you could mess with bios settings too, not booting other usb drives maybe [07:57] netlar: then try a reboot again with same drive attached [07:58] netlar: you know where the logs are now to check right :p [07:58] lotuspsychje: yes that is ok too, only boots from dvd drive and hard drive [07:58] Yes [07:58] you mean the boot logs? [07:58] netlar: or syslog [07:59] netlar: i would reformat the drive and see if the future brings more new errors [07:59] lotuspsychje: yes , so pick the the compatible with modern systems option? [08:00] netlar: if you need the hd for windows systems too yes, if only for your ubuntu choose ext2 [08:00] ext2 is not an option in the disk utility [08:00] why not ext4 [08:01] yeah ext4 is what i meant [08:01] hello [08:03] is it possible to give the boot priority to windows instead of grub2? i want it to first boot to windows bootloader and then let me select which OS i want... with grub, dual booting is an awful pain in the ass [08:03] you can select with grub [08:04] lotuspsychje: funny it will not let me reformat the disk [08:04] netlar: did you unmount the drive [08:04] Ben65: 1. when i select with grub, i need to select it 2nd time in windows bootloader (i have 2 versions of windows installed) [08:04] paulens, you want windows instead of grub2? [08:04] nope [08:04] yes, kerf [08:04] netlar: unmount hd first then format [08:05] paulens: doesn't sound that hard [08:05] kerf: i want the windows boot loader, which lets you select OS [08:05] Ben65: 2. with grub, i need to select it EACH TIME i boot. [08:06] paulens, oh, I had made windows selected by default when booted, that sounds like something you could set in the grub conf file, though I am not experienced enough to solve that. [08:06] Ben65: with windows boot loader you can select the default OS without much effort [08:06] paulens: you can make whatever you want the default in grub too [08:06] Ben65: that's too complicated for me xP [08:06] yeah, if you give up before you try [08:06] Ben65: and i want to enjoy my 9 second boot into windows again... grub f***s that up.. [08:07] paulens, so you boot, and then you want to boot again? [08:07] Ben65: i don't want grub. what's the problem? it's my personal choice.. i just asked.. [08:07] but you need grub for ubuntu to work [08:07] This ^ [08:07] paulens, no cursing here [08:07] Ben65: I DON'T WANT TO REMOVE IT [08:07] chill [08:07] bazhang: is ******************* cursing? didn't know that... [08:07] paulens, lose the caps as well [08:07] paulens, Yes [08:08] bazhang: If you dont like my **** then you can **** my ****! :P [08:08] oO [08:08] kerf: i want to boot straight to windows boot loader and then select grub as one of the options [08:08] why not just have grub load windows by default? [08:08] kerf: there should be a way to add grub to MBR... [08:08] I believe, now that you have grub, you no longer have windows boot loader. [08:08] Ben65: it's slow. [08:09] set a 0 timeout [08:09] You can also set windows as default [08:09] kerf: i still have windows boot loader. when i select windows from grub, it boots into windows bootloader [08:10] paulens, welp, that's out of my expience. [08:10] Ben65: that was a REALLY dumb answer. i'm trying to make dual boot less effortful here, and you suggest 0 timeout... is it even POSSIBLE to dual boot with that?.... [08:10] have fun figuring it out [08:10] paulens, yes it is. [08:10] i don't need to be called dumb [08:11] hi, i am using wondershaper (it's a bandwidth-limiter) but i need sudo to activate it. how and I make it available for my "normal" user? [08:11] paulens, you want a windows solution; Grub is what Ubuntu offers. try ##windows and ask about chainloading [08:11] so, grub jumps past your windows bootloader and to a windows OS that you don't want to run, when "windows" is selected? [08:11] bazhang: and i will need to configure something each time i want to restart into windows.. [08:11] paulens, what you want is much more of a n effort and will Not be quicker [08:11] kerf: no i DO want to run windows boot loader [08:12] kerf: i want to completely skip grub, BUT, i need to add an option for it in the windows bootloader [08:12] paulens, ask for help with that in ##windows , and yes it is possible, but not what we support here, thanks [08:12] paulens: go to ##windows, beucase this is related to windows boot loader [08:12] bazhang: no, i want to give the windows boot loader the priority, and i'm 100% sure that it will boot windows more quickly.. [08:12] paulens, /join ##windows [08:12] paulens: it will not [08:13] Benkinooby: it's related to grub, because i need to know where the grub files are lkocated [08:13] paulens, I disagree with grub being slower [08:13] kerf: dude, i mean it boots windows much slower.... [08:13] paulens: if you use grub, you will get grub->loads windows boot loader -> loads windows [08:13] !grub2 | paulens then have a read [08:13] paulens then have a read: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [08:13] paulens: so grub will chainload the windows loader [08:14] Benkinooby: if i use windows boot loader, i will get windows boot loader -> load windows [08:14] isn't that faster? [08:14] paulens, lets not stop support here for an offtopic debate about which is "quicker" [08:14] Good point, bazhang [08:14] paulens: jest, but not much and it is easier and safer to include windows to grub than vice versaq [08:14] agreed. [08:14] *versa [08:14] paulens, please read the grub2 links above and /join ##windows [08:14] Benkinooby, lets get back to support please [08:15] bazhang: but you didn't answer, where are grub files located on my hard drive? i need to know that to add MBR... [08:15] paulens, read the links I just gave you [08:15] hi, i am using wondershaper (it's a bandwidth-limiter) but i need sudo to activate it. how and I make it available for my "normal" user? [08:16] bazhang: i don't think that answers my question... [08:16] Benkinooby, is that similar to trickle? was it always needing sudo? [08:16] bazhang: yes [08:16] hello... i am using ubuntu 12.10, and just want to change the color of highlighted things from orange to blue... it used to be a lot easier, but it is a bit more complicated now... i think it is in the gtkrc file inside of the GTK2 folder of the theme you are using, could someone confirm that? and maybe does someone know quite what needs to be changed in the gtkrc file(if that is it)? [08:16] !info trickle [08:16] ubottu, lag [08:16] trickle (source: trickle): user-space bandwidth shaper. In component universe, is optional.

[08:21] the appearence properties of gnome2 era ubuntu had a great configuration for customizing themes... i wish with all my heart that will come back some day... i am picking through gtkrc files with a fine tooth comb just to try to change the highlight color from orange to blue [08:21] is there an easier way to do this?? [08:22] bazhang: i'd like to standard/recommended procedure to make sudo stuff non-sudo available... too often i used "workarounds" that made things worse :P [08:22] Benkinooby, I'm wary about giving advice here as I have zero experience with this, perhaps someone else here and/or askubuntu.com ; apologies [08:22] chaotix, isnt that in system setting now? [08:22] augh system settings [08:22] i will look [08:23] bazhang, where in system settings?

[09:06] michael87: there are GUIs..... [09:07] michael87, thats not correct [09:07] ActionParsnip, I installed a gui and it is not working with it. Cant find the library plug or some crap [09:08] i use Dosbox for old 1990's games [09:08] michael87: then get the library... [09:08] Benkinooby: im sure it will come, but yes, thats why I wanted to keep in this channel, was looking up about how windows defrag effected ssds, then I occured to me to check for ubuntu as well [09:08] Benkinooby: lots off ppl think its trivial too thou [09:09] michael87: have you seen this page: https://code.google.com/p/mupen64plus/wiki/ThirdPartyPlugins [09:09] cjae: ext4 doesnt suffer fragmentation like windows does [09:10] ActionParsnip: false. it may suffer less, maybe. [09:10] cjae defrag is not needed in linux [09:10] ActionParsnip: yes I nose, me loves the *nix fs so much more [09:11] church: its negligible to the point of insignificance. it does fragment a little [09:11] depends how you use it. if you fill it to capacity and delete and add files, it will get fragmented [09:12] church: but the "like windows does" covers that, right? [09:12] cjae: hm, you should also know that ssd use a different store location than they present to you [09:12] cjae: so defraggging on a ssd is pointles [09:12] cjae: no matter what OS [09:12] I have a cctv box that the records for 2 months on ext3 , its been running( not uptime) 8 yrs, replaced one hdd, very little issues [09:13] cjae: the point is, that only for spinning hard disk a fragmented file takes more time to read... but a ssd does not care [09:13] benkinooby: with journalized filesystems, the gains are slim [09:13] ActionParsnip, I have m64py installed. I don't know what it means when it keeps asking for library input required becuase I set everything else up. Rom source etc === SoulOfTheInterne is now known as ToBeFree [09:13] ActionParsnip: on ssd or common hdd? [09:13] benkinooby: ssd doesnt gain from defragging in any OS [09:14] michael87: do you have an input plugin selected? [09:14] ActionParsnip: i know, that's what i said [09:15] ActionParsnip: that's why i asked you to specify your comment - becuase it confused me [09:15] ActionParsnip, I don't have a library file for mupen :( [09:15] cjae: main message for you: forget formatting on ssd [09:15] benkinooby: platter based drives need to rotate the platter to seek data, ssd doesnt have this due to zero moving parts [09:15] Benkinooby: yes I have read that [09:16] I was just seeing effect if someone else or os did [09:16] michael87: launch it from terminal, the output may help [09:16] ActionParsnip: i said that too - look above ;) [09:16] Benkinooby: auslogics defrag lets you hide ssds thou, so .... sweet [09:16] ActionParsnip, launch m64py in terminal? [09:17] Benkinooby: is this the same thing? icedtea6-plugin [09:17] michael87: yes, the output may give clues [09:17] cjae: i think it is the non-oracle java [09:17] right [09:17] cjae: it DOES the same thing... but IS NOT the same thing :P === erry__ is now known as erry [09:18] ok so where the heck do I find it [09:18] cjae: so far what i have read is that the worries about ssd life time does not apply to modern ssds anymore [09:18] guys, do u any youtube video downloader for ubuntu please?

[10:33] from fdisk -l /dev/sda1 * 2048 164104191 82051072 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT [10:34] cjae: out of curiosity, where is grub installed? /dev/sda, or /dev/sda1? === tolecnal_ is now known as tolecnal [10:34] I created an Ubuntu DVD from the Ubuntu .iso file, when installation procedure starts, I get no option to install Ubuntu alongside the already installed OS (Windows 8). Why is that? [10:35] rusty0101 sda1 is a partition of sda === __d10n__ is now known as d10n [10:35] rusty0101: son of a I think that may be what I did wrong duruing install [10:35] rusty0101: how do I tell? [10:36] MonkeyDust: Yes, but the grub bootloader doesn't need to be installed in a partition, it can be loaded into the boot sector directly on /dev/sda. [10:36] neblaz may be due to !uefi [10:36] The installation procedure says, there is no OS detected on the HDD, but there is Windows 8 installed. [10:36] neblaz: have you chkdsk'd the NTFS? [10:37] Well, in BIOS it is UEFI boot selected, Secure Boot is disabled, Windows 8 works fine, so Ubuntu 13.04. should install respectively see the Windows 8 installatino... [10:38] I have not chkdsk the NTFS... why should that be done? [10:38] rusty0101: so does that matter where it is installed [10:38] neblaz: make sure that the file system is contiguous and error free. what else does chkdsk do? [10:39] Do I have to install Ubuntu 13.04. from a DVD or can I use also an USB-Stick? [10:40] Morning everyone. [10:40] neblaz usb is fine [10:40] cjae: was checking. There is instructions on repairing a grub2 install at https:/help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing I'm not sure if it will tell you where grub2 was installed to begin with. [10:41] rusty0101: the reason it got mucked up, think anyways is that the installer was mislabeling the drives eg. /dev/sdx so when it asked where to install bootloader, I selected the drive that has windows on it, but I believe I selected sda1 instead of just sda for example [10:42] neblaz: you can use unetbootin in windows using an MD5 tested ISO [10:42] rusty0101: but I have ran sudo grub-mkconfig as well [10:42] and then update-grub [10:43] neblaz: a chkdsk can be useful, you can also resize NTFS in Windows [10:47] Neggy: Good afternoon Neggy! [10:47] AIRecon. Afternoon. [10:48] brb [10:48] how safe is putting kubuntu-desktop on ubuntu 13.04 [10:49] ronalds: define safety?

[10:52] yes [10:52] uefi is win 8 thingy [10:53] despicable, so i have to pay extra for an extra headache i don't need. [10:53] but all the laptops now comes with win 8 [10:53] yes, that's really the problem [10:54] ubuntu 13.04 probably boots there, but last time I tried 12.04.02 it didn't work [10:54] even when i don't use windows, they still find a way to make life miserable [10:54] you can for now ignore uefi [10:54] nevyn: what do you mean? [10:54] I just wanted to see how live cd would work on my friends newest beast laptop [10:54] is it easy to get a usb mouse working/right click on the touchpad on an ASUS? [10:54] it'll either work you hyou need to tweak a some bios settins to enable legacy bios mode [10:54] bleh [10:54] tasty UEFI. [10:55] it'll either just work work when you disable secure boot or work in bios emulation mode. [10:58] is anyone here? [10:58] why is debian considered better than ubuntu ? [10:59] nicekiwi: hundreds of people [10:59] You know, there are things called preferences?

[11:01] yup [11:01] UEFI rocks [11:01] everyone should be using UEFI [11:01] and by broken implmentations. [11:02] do not buy non-UEFI hardware [11:02] and the complexity of it. [11:02] Moin zusammen [11:02] ich schaffe es nicht auf meinem Ubuntu server eine Subdomain zu konnektieren. Was mache ich falsch? [11:02] Oh sorry [11:02] english [11:02] i stuck to connect my subdomain on my ubuntu server [11:02] thanks, i'm reading up more on it. I'm just concerned i'd have to spend too much time trying to make it work, rather than having it work for me [11:03] is there anynone to tell me my fail [11:03] is it easy to get a usb mouse working/right click on the touchpad on an ASUS? [11:03] do not buy non-UEFI hardware <--- can you even do that nowadays? [11:03] Without trying to on purpose I mean [11:04] Cyber_Akuma: well quite [11:05] garage00: as I say it'll either just work, work with secure boot turned off (this is what I'm doing now with 13.04) or work in legacy bios mode. [11:05] if you buy a microsoft surface on the other hand.. life's a world of sucky hurt. [11:06] Although I was disappoined that my UEFI laptop's bios still looked like the oldschool ASCII bios design [11:06] Cyber_Akuma: I wanted a rotating hypercube. [11:06] I thoght Ubuntu supported secure boot? [11:06] does 13.04 server iso include LTSP installation at the menu? [11:06] hungry4gry: which model? [11:06] nevyn: the real concern is that my top prospect is a samsung :) [11:06] it does. but I was trying to install debian... (long story still grumpy) [11:06] nevyn: At least something a little easier to navigate [11:06] garage00: read mjg59's blog. [11:07] ogzy: i believe so [11:07] As well as change variables [11:07] ActionParsnip: normally it comew via alternate cd and there is no alternate cd for 13.04 [11:07] Cyber_Akuma: and have to re-write all the documentation and field the support calls? you're mad [11:07] ogzy: could use the minimal iso [11:08] ... yeah, like secure boot dosen't do that already :P [11:08] And I said LIKE [11:08] ActionParsnip: then i should install the packages manually? [11:08] Cyber_Akuma: it's just a thing to find an turn off.. [11:08] its not just a uefi version of an old bios, its a new one, just still ASCII and requiring random keys to change different variables [11:08] it's no worse than hyperthreading on prescott.. [11:08] Was more complicated on my laptop actually === safridzal is now known as gathotkaca [11:09] Have to turn it off, turn ON legacy boot instead of uefi boot [11:09] reboot [11:09] ogzy: sure [11:09] THEN the options to allow booting from soething other than the internal hdd appear [11:09] That was the only way I coudl get the win7 disk to boot on the stupid thing to wipe out 8 [11:09] Cyber_Akuma: hrm on mine I can just press f12 [11:10] well that's sane actually [11:10] Cyber_Akuma: I had similiar issue on my laptop, linux installed easily with uefi, windows was a pain [11:10] win7 can't boot in uefi [11:10] It still seems to want a secure boot comaptible os when secure boot is on if you boot from remocable media [11:10] cairne: same! [11:10] Ubuntu booted with secure boot enabled [11:10] win7 would not [11:10] sure. [11:10] it doesn't support it. [11:10] ActionParsnip, sorry for the last reply. Asus X55A [11:10] only win8 [11:10] but that's wayyy ot for here. [11:11] had to step outside [11:11] nevyn: My point is even if I disable it, I have to go through several more hoops to allow booting from remoable media that isn't secure boot [11:11] yes. that's expected. [11:11] well no [11:11] you have to go through more hoops to boot media that isn't uefi enabled [11:11] If I disable secure boot, I can boot a non scure boot os.... from teh hdd [11:12] to boot from a non-secure boot disk or usb drive thogh, I had to go through several more hoops in the bios [11:12] Pretty sure win7 supports uefi [11:12] nevyn: according to wikipedia win7 can boot uefi [11:12] My desktop is uefi and win7 boots fine :P [11:12] AS did ubuntu and mint [11:13] ... after I made them stop going nuts with my mouse [11:13] only x86_64/amd [11:13] Its a new desktop, its not 32bit :P [11:13] msg alis list *bodhi* [11:14] hungry4gry: try installing xfce4 package, then log off and log into the xfce session. Is it ok? [11:14] nevyn: thanks, for all the feedback, it'd take me several hours to figure these things on my own [11:14] Cyber_Akuma: I believe you have to jump through hoops to get uefi with win 7, I looked into it but its just not worth it. When I want windows which is rare, i just switch from uefi to csm mode in bios [11:14] what is ubuntu free talk channel? [11:15] earman_: -discuss [11:15] earman_: #ubuntu-offtopic [11:15] thanks [11:15] The only issue I had installing win7 on it was that it refused to isntall while the raid5 array was in place [11:18] Mounting an encfs encrypted directory on top of an ecryptfs encrypted /home partition (ext4) causes some trouble in 13.04. There are no error while using encfs and fusermount -u, however an additional flush-ecryptfs- process appears after every logout and most likely keeps /home busy on shutdown. Orphaned inodes in the filesystem journal are the result. Any ideas? [11:18] Hi [11:18] is there an linux tool to convert dm_84 video? [11:18] yo [11:19] video from ET wolf games [11:19] yo Cyber :D [11:19] ActionParsnip i'm on windows now. i'll try exactly that thank you. [11:19] surfzoid try winff, i'm not familiar with that format,tho === bart is now known as Guest86122 [11:19] what is winff? [11:20] what's an xfce session? I'm literally brand new to linux [11:20] ho, winff is an FFmpeg tool, so it will not work :D [11:20] MonkeyDust: i already try mpeg or avi tool:D [11:21] surfzoid then start from the beginning, what have you tried before you came here for help [11:21] surfzoid, avconv should do it === jdiez_ is now known as jdiez [11:21] cfhowlett ffmpeg uses avconv [11:21] how i search files in ubuntu one share? [11:21] cfhowlett winff uses avconv <-- correction [11:21] hungry4gry: its a different desktop environment without compiz stinking the place up [11:21] ctrl + f? [11:22] MonkeyDust, as I undertand it, ffmpeg is deprecated (still fuctional however). recommended package is avconv. [11:22] dm84 is the fourcc of the codec? [11:22] or could use mencoder [11:23] Okay, I'll bite. The integrity test keeps failing for the Alternate installer I downloaded (from two different mirrors) on the same file, nic-pcmcia-modules blah. Am I doing something wrong? [11:23] ActionParsnip, i don't know what compiz is, but i don't want a new desktop environment [11:23] i just want my mouse to work [11:23] dm_84 is the extension file name [11:23] Thermoelectric: try torrents [11:23] i mean how does a usb mouse not work out of the box on ubuntu linux? [11:23] only the game it self can read it as i know [11:23] this apparently is a persistent problem that has failed to be addressed over several major upgrades [11:24] cfhowlett true, about ffmpeg vs avconv, that is [11:24] hungry4gry: its to test. makes sure the button works. its called 'exploring the issue' [11:24] mencoder, avidemux dont reconize this file [11:24] vlc too [11:24] hungry4gry never had issues with usb mice i ubuntu [11:24] Me neither. [11:25] a ton of people on the forums have. and right click doesn't function on my touchpad. :-\ [11:25] is it control-click for a right click? [11:25] What game is this again? Just because it has a weird extension dosen't nessesairly mean the codec is custom [11:25] it is ET wolf [11:25] i mean how does a usb mouse not work out of the box on ubuntu linux? <--- Mine didn't either [11:25] enmy teritory [11:26] why ubuntu one not opensource? === necros is now known as Guest63500 [11:26] monkeydust and neggy it appears it's 2 and 2. 50% of unbuntu users experience mouse failure. [11:26] earman_: what gives you that idea? [11:26] earman_ ask #ubuntu-offtopic [11:27] So strange that a USB mouse would not work. A gneric USB driver should do it jus tlovely. [11:27] just* [11:27] Youd think so, yeah [11:27] hungry4gry well, that's odd [11:27] My mouse kept losing focus, or locking focus on one windows no matter what was on top of it or where I was clicking [11:27] ActionParsnip because i can share files with others use ubuntuone [11:28] Had to load an xorg script I got from someone to make the mouse behave [11:28] MonkeyDust I may have to try a less odd linux distro ;) [11:28] earman_: that doesnt make it not open source... [11:28] hungry4gry freedom of linux: don't like it, try something else :) [11:29] ActionParsnip i mean how i can search other people shared files in ubuntuone? [11:30] earman_: not sure. i dont use it. but it is open source [11:30] earman_ it's invite only [11:30] ActionParsnip no ubuntuone is closed source as i know [11:31] earman_ please continue in #ubuntu-offtopic [11:31] MonkeyDust actually that's freedom in general. I like Windows 8 because it's great with those new-fangled and complicated "USB" mice lol [11:31] hungry4gry: you are the only person in the world having problems with your mouse [11:31] ok [11:31] so i may just try something else ... but not linux. i'm pretty put off by your attitude [11:31] hungry4gry: have you tried a different mouse? [11:31] gordonjcp, the forums are full of people with the same problem [11:31] hungry4gry, is it a R.A.T. mouse by any chance? [11:32] no i'm not going to try another mouse. it works fine. [11:32] hungry4gry: what exactly is the problem? [11:32] earman_: download the source if you want https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntuone-client [11:32] it's a logitech wireless mouse. [11:32] oh, wireless [11:32] doesn't work, lol [11:32] they never work [11:32] earman_: try a little research [11:32] hungry4gry: "doesn't work", is that it? [11:32] hungry4gry: take away its cannabis and stop it watching daytime TV maybe [11:32] ActionParsnip what you mean invite only! [11:32] hungry4gry: tell it to get its idle mousey backside out and get a job [11:33] hungry4gry use blueman for bluetooth detection [11:33] earman_: not sure. im logged in to launchpad which may be a thing. the client is open source though. you can also use apt-get to pull down the source deb [11:34] no one who could help me? [11:35] serhad: i scrolled up and not seen you question. wassup? [11:35] Serhad start with a question [11:36] i couldn´t config my subdomain... on my ubuntu server [11:36] it doesn´t work. [11:36] serhad: did you ask a question at all? [11:36] ActionParsnip: he did about 20 min ago [11:36] you know i had my criticisms of Windows 8, but after installing a dual-boot Ubuntu, having a mouse failure (lol), and then getting to know the Ubuntu community [11:36] I now LOVE windows 8 [11:36] thank you all [11:36] Serhad type /join #ubuntu-server [11:36] ActionParsnip well i guess the reason is they want to have an advantage over competing cloud providers, but, i thought they only made the server proprietary while giving us an open source client [11:36] camz: explains a lot. thanks :-) [11:37] earman_: not sure about the server side. you could always run a one cloud server [11:38] serhad: dont you just configure dns with the subdomain.... [11:38] ActionParsnip so how to search other people shared files? [11:38] earman_: didnt know you could. like I said earlier. I dont use it [11:38] earman_ i use ubuntuone, there's no such thing as a search tool in it [11:39] earman_ it's no p2p filesharing program [11:39] MonkeyDust if so who can get my shared files? [11:39] earman_ the people you invite [11:40] earman_: the people you give the url of the file to [11:40] ok, thanks [11:40] ActionParsnip: ping === qos|away is now known as qos [11:42] In the sound settings, the output shows a Dummy output in Ubuntu 13.04.

The dummy output issue only occurs occasionally [11:45] dose linux now use plan9's ideas? [11:45] snpresent: what, being totally unusable, not supporting hardware less than 20 years old, that sort of thing? [11:46] snpresent: No. [11:46] thanks you for your explain [11:46] snpresent: I hope there will be a nVidia driver for plan9. [11:47] There wont be, not in this dimension. And its OT to Ubuntu. :) [11:48] gustav i am afraid you can't now [11:48] snpresent: Can't what? [11:49] gustav get nVidia driver for plan9 i mean [11:49] snpresent: Thats widely known, yes. [11:49] snpresent: Yes, I was talking about the future. [11:50] bekks widely known what? [11:50] nik90_: try: killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.pulse* [11:51] snpresent: That there is no plan9 support not planned support for it from nvidia.

Because to fix this issue temporarily, all I need to do is restart my machine. [11:54] ActionParsnip: would killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.pulse* and then restarting solve it for good? [11:54] snpresent: the last releast from plan9 was more than ten years ago [11:54] <[deXter]> 3.8.0-19-generic [11:54] nik90_: you will get default sound settings, its a great first start [11:55] <[deXter]> qwerkus, Ah. Well there have been improvements in kernel 3.9, but you'd also have to install the most recent mesa from the xorg-edgers ppa. [11:55] ActionParsnip did they end this project? [11:55] <[deXter]> Sounds interesting; do you have ppa link, or did you complie manually ? [11:55] guys my ubuntu has become really really slow. takes >1.5 min to boot up. any help?

We use Kerberos and LDAP for authentication and I now have a few questions about lightdm. [12:02] chunkyhead: i think you have the culprit [12:02] how to eliminate? ActionParsnip [12:02] I have two networking problems on my wifes computer. 1) 4g usb stick modem doesn't come online. there is no option of turning it on from the drop down menu (13.04) anymore. 2) with the wlan on, ping and traceroute work fine and i can access the wlan router too, but i can't open a webpage. [12:03] chunkyhead: dmesg are the kernel messages. Read through and you will see what is going on. its like windows event viewer but better as you can grep it to seatch easily :-) [12:03] On Lightdm I'm presented with 4 Items: "Local-User" (a local user), "Login", "Guest Session" and "Remote Login". When I choose "Login" and login with my kerberos principal, the next time I come to lightdm, my RealName is also shown in the list. [12:03] My question is, what additional info is needed to solve these problems? :) [12:03] define grep ActionParsnip [12:03] The more users login on the system the more entries get shown. [12:04] newsalor: run: echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" | sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf [12:04] However after some time, entries seem to disappear. [12:04] newsalor: then try the web [12:04] I was not able to find a definitive pattern on when this happens, but it's not happening on reboots. [12:04] chunkyhead: why dont YOU search online to find out yourself.... [12:04] my touchpad not work in13.04 but work in12.10 [12:05] snpresent: does the system haveva make and model? [12:05] it takes so much time to add swap -_- i guess i dont want it not to put swap [12:05] i mean i want swap lol, ActionParsnip [12:05] The problem is, that the users loose there preferences (preferred Xsession, keyboard layout, language) when their entry is removed [12:05] chunkyhead: is your swap encrypted? [12:05] Do you know where lightdm stores these things? [12:06] yeah [12:06] ActionParsnip, [12:06] emachines E642G [12:06] chunkyhead: might be a thing. see if its a known issue online [12:06] how did swap get encrypted? any idea? i dont remember manually encrypting it [12:06] ActionParsnip, ^ [12:07] ActionParsnip: thanks. I'll try that.

[12:19] ubuntuaddicted: if you configure the controller in zsnes, do the inputs make events in the app. [12:19] newsalor: cool [12:20] ActionParsnip, no. xpad was loaded, i think i have to blacklist xpad and use xboxdrv driver. [12:22] ubuntuaddicted: oh, are you using ubuntu in virtualbox? [12:23] ActionParsnip, no, it's an Xubuntu 12.04.2 64bit straight on the hardware, no VM [12:23] ActionParsnip, why did you think i was in a VM? [12:24] ubuntuaddicted: you could get it installed. you may need to compile. misread the module so thought you'd virtualized. [12:25] any ideas for the 4g usb stick thing?

What. [12:36] nik90_: i suggest you install pulseaudio [12:36] ah, it's just not doing it on root [12:36] Ohh I see. gordonjcp: How do you fix it on screen? [12:37] Yinseng: if you've got more than one session connected via screen, it will size to the smallest window [12:37] is there a workaround [12:37] Yinseng: tmux does something similar but fills the remainder of your terminal with dots [12:38] ActionParsnip: I apparently already have it.

But it still shows play audio through dummy output. Should I be restarting now? [12:40] I have had alot of difficulty with the drivers and havent been able to install any newer ones [12:40] nik90_: change the sound output device [12:41] also nvidia-xconfig gives a validation error [12:41] ActionParsnip: there aren't other sound output devices listed [12:41] anssit: it will as you dont have an xorg.conf file, you do now [12:42] nik90_: this is as good as my sound troubleshooting goes. maybe others can advise [12:42] ActionParsnip: no prob.

[14:29] b0x: LTS gives greater stabilityand longest support [14:29] b0x: raring is 13.04 [14:29] right. [14:30] b0x: precise is 12.04 and LTS. Saucy is 12.10 and is very unstable [14:30] and in regards to update schedule/process.. ie if i get 13.04, would updating to future versions be possible? [14:30] ActionParsnip, 13.10? [14:30] th0r: yes [14:31] from 13.04 to 13.10 for example [14:31] (when stablised) [14:31] i am running this command, update-rc.d apache2 defaults and it says insserv: warning: current start runlevel(s) (empty) of script `apache2' overrides LSB defaults (2 3 4 5). [14:31] b0x: 13.10 is Saucy, sorry. not intended for casual use [14:31] how to fix [14:31] Hi Allen Can content in sdcard formatted with ntfs be played on music systems ie hi fi?

[14:32] ActionParsnip: are you saying there is a controller for ubuntu 13.04?> [14:33] yofun: youtube controller you mean? [14:33] play and stop button for current video playing [14:33] in the systray sound icon [14:33] b0x: yes you will need to upgrade to each successive release in turn [14:33] ActionParsnip: filesys [14:34] yofun: no idea, maybe there is a ppa with a newer version [14:34] alright [14:34] riqdiiz: ntfs is proprietary to windows [14:35] ActionParsnip: but is there an upgrade path, rather than full install? ie if i were to install 12.04 now, can i just 'upgrade' to 13.04? [14:35] or any other future verions [14:35] b0x: you would need to upgrade to 12.10 first then to 13.04 [14:35] or is it restricted to the major version? ie 12.04 only to 12.x, 13.04 to 13.x etc [14:36] ah right [14:36] I tend to think Ubuntu is the overall. [14:36] b0x you can upgrade directly rom lts to lts [14:36] b0x: if you stay on 12.04 you can upgrade direct to 14.04 when it is released as it is LTS to LTS [14:36] from* [14:36] and finally, as a first time (regular) user, would u suggest 12.04 or 13.04? [14:36] 12* [14:37] b0x 12.04 if you want long support, 13.04 if you want the latest stuff [14:37] oops [14:37] riqdiiz: your issue is nothing to do with ubuntu. you need to contact the manufacturer of the device you want to use the storage in [14:37] srorry [14:37] b0x: regular users imho should stick on LTS === LarsN_ is now known as LarsN [14:38] Ok thanks ActionParsnip === NK_ is now known as NK` [14:38] if you have very new hardware however.. the latest release may be a better idea [14:39] "latest stuff" worth having? just more shinier interface or..? [14:39] b0x: newer versions of most all the apps.. depends on what work you do. [14:40] b0x: some people feel they must be using for example gnome 3.8 or whatever. that would require 13.04 [14:40] hey people. my amd a8-3500m doesn't overclock itself (turbo boost). how can i make it work?

[16:30] Shirakawasuna, try /var/log/syslog === Messenger_bird is now known as Guest64239 === FnorZ is now known as Guest63083 === sparty_ is now known as sparty [16:32] brainwash: cool === away is now known as away_ [16:32] looks like xfce4-session is crashing, not X [16:32] http://bpaste.net/show/2QH4mDn0b7vfkRPx1YLo/ [16:33] Shirakawasuna: Correct. [16:34] so Shirakawasuna you get a glimpse of an X session trying...' [16:34] found some bugs related to the issue [16:34] Shirakawasuna: Did you run memcheck recently? [16:34] http://askubuntu.com/questions/292417/xfce4-session-segfault-suspend-and-hibernate-not-working [16:34] Eh... [16:34] does anybody knows how to turn off the backlight keyboard? [16:34] gustav: I haven't, no [16:34] Shirakawasuna: Do that. [16:35] memtest, I mean't. [16:35] gustav: will do, probably overnight since it has to check 8Gb [16:36] Shirakawasuna: I mean, ok, it's not very plausible for the memory to just break, so it might be a bug. Or both. [16:36] Shirakawasuna: I figured. [16:37] Shirakawasuna: Did you upgrade xfce session? The binary. [16:37] gustav: I recently upgraded to 13.04, so yes [16:37] at the moment I'm going to try using the ppa in #19 here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-session/+bug/1104435 [16:37] Launchpad bug 1104435 in xfce4-session (Ubuntu) "xfce4-session crashed with SIGSEGV in g_slice_alloc()" [High,Triaged] [16:38] Shirakawasuna: Probability for bug just got bigger. [16:38] Hey all ! I am presently running Gnome 3.4 on my Laptop with ubuntu 12.04 LTS. how do i upgrade to 3.8 ? === KolakCC is now known as Guest60948 [16:38] wow that is a mystery why the computer boots slow when the external hd is not attached [16:38] is* [16:39] is attached* [16:39] netlar, you told earlier the ntsf drive had a failure before? [16:39] Shirakawasuna: If you remove the PPA and go with the regular it will probably work. Otherwise you have to deal with the owner of the PPA. YMMV. [16:39] yes, OerHeks, but I was able to format it to ext4 with gparted [16:40] Hi eveyone [16:40] netlar, usb 3.0? === Computron is now known as Guest35536 [16:40] brainwash: no, this is an other device and older computer [16:40] gustav: yeah. I figure this bug is high severity so it'll get fixed by the time I'd need to worry about that [16:40] older* [16:41] brainwash: both are over 5 years old [16:41] ok rebooting to see if a totally fresh start with this new package does it [16:41] netlar, different systems, same external harddrive -> same problem? [16:41] Shirakawasuna: No, it could just be a setting only you have, because of older files, that means severity is low. Only 1 individual. [16:41] I listen a lot of podcasts. I like to change the tempo of these mp3 in Audacity and make them faster without changing the height of the voice, to listen more podcasts in a day... ;) Do you think it could be possible with a batch treatment ? === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman [16:41] brainwash: no, when attached to the mac, no problems [16:41] Can someone tell me how to enable ubuntu system error showing again ? [16:41] brainwash: only have this one computer with Ubuntu [16:42] iDrofox, How did you turn it off? === Guest35536 is now known as Computron_ [16:42] !apport === munZe is now known as r00t-err0r [16:42] gustav: the bug is ranked as high severity and affects 75 === overclucker_ is now known as overclucker [16:42] i want to execute a command _once_ on a boot _before_ my network is set up. i tried it in /etc/rc.local. unfortunately there it is to late as ifconfig allready shows established network. i dont want to execute the command every time /etc/init.d/networking is executed or any ifup/ifdown.. just once on a system-boot... a cronjob with "@reboot" is too late, too. what is my line here? [16:42] if I have that bug [16:42] Shirakawasuna: Is there a plan when it's gonna be done? [16:43] Shirakawasuna: You sound lucky. === erry__ is now known as erry [16:43] wilee-nilee: i was facing a error on each ubuntu startup before which is releated to "speech dispatcher" so i asked about it here and some told me to edit some file to disable notification ot it.Now i want to enable it again ? === Granis` is now known as Granis [16:44] brb [16:45] iDrofox, http://askubuntu.com/questions/93457/how-do-i-enable-or-disable-apport [16:45] netlar, searching for similar cases might be the only way to solve this mystery :/ [16:45] iDrofox, I assume it is apport. [16:46] yes, maybe, it does not ruin anything it appears. just a little irratating [16:46] Out of curiosity why is this help channel here if all of the info needed can be had via google? [16:47] mchlbhm: Not all have Google. [16:47] wilee-nilee: Thanks you assumed it right! [16:47] gustav, I don't understand. [16:47] mchlbhm, So the people unable to find it can be led there if needed or told directly. [16:48] mchlbhm: IRC is an older protocol than HTTP, which Google runs on. [16:48] !google | mchlbhm This probably explains it better, [16:48] mchlbhm This probably explains it better,: While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. [16:48] mchlbhm: There's the social aspect, like DJones tried to explain. [16:49] yea they should've googled it anyway before asking questions :) [16:49] wilee-nilee, Ah! I can google things, and find info but I don't really understand what it is I'm reading lol [16:49] how do i execute a script after usb is inserted..a generic usb storage i mean. [16:50] netlar, but creating a bug report on launchpad would help also to identify your problem === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman [16:50] brainwash: ok, i will try that also [16:50] I have another thought, maybe it is the usb port i am using [16:50] isdangagamay: Run it every second. [16:51] for instance, I understand | is a pipe, dsmeg is display message and tail gives the last 10 lines of dsmeg when used with pipe [16:51] isdangagamay: what does executing a script has to do with usb storage? [16:51] mchlbhm: dmesg actually :D [16:51] Fleck, lol thank you [16:52] brainwash: there are four usb ports, two are 1.1 and two are 2.0 [16:52] ah alps i want to format every usb pendrive that is inserted. tried this - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsbDriveDoSomethingHowto [16:52] but it doesnt seem to do anything [16:53] i changed the obvious values [16:53] netlar, does booting the live cd reproduce the long delay?

If I want to backup files for the first time on another HD (so no need to check if files already exist) would it be okay to use cp with preservation of all attributes or should I still use rsync? [16:55] isdangagamay: can you provide the scripts you are using? [16:55] Mrokii rsync [16:56] alps i did whats in here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsbDriveDoSomethingHowto [16:56] just to see if it worked. [16:56] Mrokii: rsync, too... more reliable... tests, interrupted transfers [16:56] err work [16:56] Mrokii rsync -a <-- archive, to keep the attributes intact [16:56] dublidu, MonkeyDust Okay, thanks. [16:56] hi. i am trying to set up apt-mirror, but can't seem to get it to work. if someone could help, it will be most appreciated. [16:57] brainwash: what command can i give to show how the external is attached to computer [16:58] isdangagamay: hmm that should work. any errors? [16:58] I see the information bus info: usb@2:2, does that mean usb 2.0? [16:59] how can i setup apt to get proposed updates ? [16:59] using raring [16:59] netlar, i guess that's the bus id and device id === _BJFreeman is now known as BJfreeman [17:00] Does rsync follow symlinks in standard mode or is just the linkfile copied? [17:01] does anyone know how to get apt to install from a synaptic generated marked package file [17:01] eg [17:01] netlar, but there are no errors in the logs after connecting the hard drive, right? [17:01] Mrokii: man rsync [17:01] brainwash: not that I see [17:01] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5655184/ [17:01] brainwash: actually this computer has 5 usb ports === gkatsev_ is now known as gkatsev [17:02] sorry mean 6 [17:03] hi, could anyone tell me how to get a script to run everytime I log in to ubuntu? [17:04] netlar, you will have to test some of them [17:04] alps no nothing on /var/log/syslog [17:04] japandroid, you need init.d [17:04] brainwash: is there a command to show how the external hd is attached? [17:04] netlar, but when does the long boot delay exactly occur? after the ubuntu splash screen and before the login screen? [17:05] which port it is using? === BTCOxygen|1 is now known as btcoxygen === btcoxygen is now known as BTCOxygen [17:05] netlar, lsusb shows the bus/device id, mmh [17:05] hfase: thank you.

[17:24] yea... with ubuntu you get often a fist in your mouth ;-) [17:24] aaron_, I see nothing on that model, I would guess though that it is the same hardware as well known named sony computers. Doesn't that link have a make a file command and add script? [17:24] That's why there are always so many people on this channel. [17:25] People love their donkeys.

[19:19] shows that it is [19:19] mchlbhm: I was just testing to see if !fa is working like !ru. [19:20] this happened after a reCent update [19:20] mojtaba: I didn't understand that either. I'll google it. Thank you for responding. :) [19:20] !brain | mojtaba [19:20] mojtaba: Hi!

[19:22] Does ubuntu support DLNA? [19:22] Gah! I still can't load webpages in firefox or chromium. :( [19:23] mojtaba, what is the os on the asus? [19:23] Guest18752: It is a router ( I guess unix base) === Guest18752 is now known as th0r [19:24] elinks text browser won't work either [19:25] Any help? [19:25] mojtaba, does it support samba? I stream from my laptop to my tablets using samba, and the same from my NAS to laptop/tablet [19:26] th0r: It said so. === marahin is now known as baklazan [19:26] But I could not figure it out [19:26] does anybody know how can i turn off the keyboard backlight? [19:26] mojtaba, first, it will be a lot easier to set it all up if you know all the IP addresses. I have static IPs in my network on the boat. [19:27] mchlbhm: Your connection dropped when you switched environments? [19:27] mojtaba, then I mount the network drives as CIFS. Give me a sec and I will pastebin the script I use. [19:27] th0r: thanks [19:27] mojtaba, [19:27] mojtaba, oops.... [19:28] mojtaba, http://paste.ubuntu.com/5655678/ [19:28] pure: Yes, but it didn't go away after rebooting the system, rebooting clearbox or sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [19:29] does anybody know how can i turn off the keyboard backlight? [19:29] mojtaba, if you are plugging the drive into the router, I would guess the address as 192.168.xxx.1, but that is only a guess [19:29] th0r: Yes it is the address. [19:30] Should I set the credentials of the router in samba in ubuntu? [19:30] mojtaba, the .smbcredentials file just contains two lines, username=xxx and password=xxx for the samba acct [19:30] mchlbhm: Does it work if you switch back to the old de? [19:30] is there a reason that the Properties window doesnt allow me to set the executable bit on *.jar files ? [19:30] th0r: And where is it located? [19:30] mojtaba, and the /media folders are the mount points I created [19:30] pure: using ubuntu 12.04 I went from unity to gnome (problems started) and now back to unity with no change [19:30] only read/write show up in the menu. that seems unhelpful [19:31] mojtaba, you can put the credentials file anywhere, but I put it in root for security purposes. [19:31] seronis outside your /home/ folder? [19:31] its in home/downloads [19:31] odd [19:31] does anybody know how can i turn off the keyboard backlight? [19:32] i have a dell inspiron 7520 notebook. my fan is always running with full speed. i tried to configure fancontrol but i get this "/usr/sbin/pwmconfig: There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed" [19:32] th0r: Should I create .smbcredentials file, or does it exist and I should edit it? [19:33] mojtaba, you create it [19:33] th0r: Does it have special format? [19:33] aaron__, is this a macbook? [19:33] th0r, no [19:33] th0r, its sony [19:33] mojtaba, no, just a text file with those two lines [19:33] th0r, can you help me? [19:34] th0r: like: username = xxxx [19:34] password = xxxx [19:34] aaron__, there are some suggestions here...http://forum.notebookreview.com/samsung/673525-keyboard-backlight-ubuntu-12-04-chronos-7-np700z7c.html [19:34] mojtaba, yes, I didn't use spaces but that should work [19:35] mojtaba, it can be named anything, and be placed anywhere. Just make sure you use the right path/filename in the script [19:35] th0r: ok, thanks [19:36] mojtaba, I use vlc to watch the videos. Just access the mountpoint with thunar and open the file with vlc [19:36] mchlbhm: Is the wireless adapter on? Is it showing up in ifconfig? [19:36] the window buttons in fullscreen look different than the window theme ;o [19:36] pure: I'm new. I type ifconfig in the terminal?

There's usually a button to enable/diable wireless. It may have disabled it when you switched the de so double check that it's still on. [19:38] pure: no Idea. May I paste? No, tower. [19:38] Ubuntu makes me want to play the bongos [19:38] they got rid of the bongo sound when you log in [19:39] Pure: nevermind....This sucks. lol [19:39] mchlbhm: what interfaces does it show? should be something like eth0, lo, wlan0 [19:40] anyone any good with ubuntu vga unknown monitor stuff? [19:40] i think its just a edid problem but no idea how to fix [19:40] pure: all three [19:40] or workaround [19:42] can somebody help me with fancontrol? it says " no pwm-capable sensor modules installed" but its possible to display the temperature with sensors [19:42] mchlbhm: Does the status of wlan0 say UP?

I fucked up, and setted up a desktop background so big that my netbook doesn't log in now. [19:45] anyone feel like talking about some problems with my ubuntu 13.04 [19:46] mchlbhm: If your connection is still setup properly, you may be able to just "dhclient wlan0" to get a lease [19:46] Smash_ I don't use it but say about one to start with [19:47] I am STUCK and really need some help. [19:47] Does anyone know where are the background image settings in Ubuntu 12.04? [19:47] I'd appreciate i leaps and bounds! [19:47] pure: wlan0 is a zero, correct? [19:47] sakurai you can configure an automatic login, by configuring the lightdm.conf file from within a tty === LordDeath__ is now known as LordDeath [19:47] sakurai it's not background image setting it's about resolution [19:48] sakurai you have to be logged in to set it up, AFAIK [19:48] mchlbhm: yes [19:48] Does anyone know how to disable Mouse Keys in 13.04? [19:48] mchlbhm yes 0 is zero [19:48] pure: yeah, I just noticed the dot in it. lol [19:49] Marco, you would get more help if we knew the problem [19:49] Ah. So, ubuntu 12.10 installed fine via usb. 13.04 updated fine. but i wanted clean install... now, i cant get it working and im am just STUCK. First few installs i got some error that kept repeating for realtek and now i just get a screen that turns on and off. I can NOT get it to boot after install. No info ive searched online helps. [19:49] @melodie: I have password login enabled, so I can still go in from command line. [19:49] pure: sudo dhclient wlan0? [19:49] mchlbhm: yes [19:49] Im SO darn frustrated. Ive spent TOO much time on this. [19:50] pure: RTNETLINK answers: File exists [19:50] Is there a way to give a user full permissions for usb devices? [19:50] sakurai yes, then go to the wiki look how to login automatically with your user login name, reboot and then from there change the resolution [19:51] im on usb boot now [19:51] Marco: you may be using old h/w [19:51] hardware? [19:51] Yh [19:51] its a bran new PC, also, it worked fine when i installed 12.10 and updated to 13.04 [19:52] @melodie: thanks, but the logging part isn't the issue, the issue is that I don't know where is the config file. [19:52] I wish there were classes online to learn linux. I'd devote a ton of time to it. [19:52] Try clean install [19:52] thats what i have bwwn soin [19:52] @mchlbhm: I think there are. [19:53] *been doing [19:53] sakurai the config file is not the problem, to override it you need to be logged in so you have to use a turn around [19:53] from USB [19:53] re downloaded ubuntu 3 times [19:53] from diff computers [19:53] sakurai, do you know of any? [19:53] @melodie: I AM logged in! [19:54] @melodie: that is, if you count cli [19:54] I meant login to X [19:54] sakurai login to X [19:54] mchlbhm: try "iwconfig" and then "sudo iwlist scan" and see if your router shows up [19:55] i have NO idea where to even start now.... [19:55] @mchlbhm: depends on orientation, there is a pretty nice internet course about shell commands that I know about, but you'd have to search if you want a more general thing... [19:55] i just want to be done with this, its been TOO much time just trying to get it to boot after install [19:55] Marco, you say you downloaded the iso three times, did you run the md5 checksum on any of them? [19:56] hey guys [19:56] anyone here make the switch to linux for niggers? [19:56] <[BackBox]> helo guys [19:56] <[BackBox]> :-) [19:57] dafuq [19:57] pure: Yes, it shows [19:57] i cant seem to get on the site http://linuxforniggers.us/ [19:57] @melodie: lightdm.conf is where? [19:57] hi everyone, does someone know why wma files do not work on media players connected to TVs? I have a sony media player box and the wma files can not be viewed, only sound is heard. [19:57] no, i downloaded using the instructions from ubuntu [19:57] Myrtti, :D [19:58] sakurai somewhere under /etc as all configuration files [19:58] Download, use pen drive to put on jump drive, did same thing i did when installing 12 successfully === ovidiu-f- is now known as ovidiu-florin [19:58] also, i have installed 13 5 times, no success to boot [19:58] but it says it was a successful installation [19:58] XHEART wma means windows media audio, its supposed to be sound only [19:58] Marco, you do realize you have said nothing about how it fails, where it fails, how far it boots....or what the problem seems to be [19:59] i can view that file on my pc as a video [19:59] sakurai, not looking for general. I'm looking to learn not only what commands to type in, but what they're doing to make "things" happen === mehdi is now known as Mehdi [19:59] than its wmv [19:59] true [19:59] sorry [19:59] its because wmv is a microsoft format and your media player might not have the codec for that [19:59] then why i can not view wmv on the media play? [19:59] Myrtti, than you for that. :) [19:59] th0r, appoligies, im not super knowledgeable about all of this [20:00] can wmv convert to avi? [20:00] yepp just google for a converter [20:01] @mchlbhm: Off the top of my head I can point you to linuxcommand.org, I hope it works for you. [20:01] i am using ubuntu 12.04 [20:01] i have though, i had informed about how after a successful install, when it asks for restart that 2 installs it gave me a blinking message i did not understand referring to Realtek, than, the next 3 successful installs/unsuccessful boots it has simply been turning the screen on and off after the intel logo [20:01] mchlbhm: now "sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid password" where essid is the name of your router and password is your password. [20:01] than google wmv to avi converter ubuntu, its not that hard [20:02] th0r: which, is all the info i have. [20:02] Handbrake for a converter. [20:03] pretty straight forward i guess, successful install, unsuccessful boot, just turns screen on/off. nothing else after the inital intel logo where u can press F2 for boot menu [20:03] but any help would be so greatly appreciated, this stuff can get preeeetty irritating! lol [20:03] marco...dual boot? [20:03] No sir [20:03] just ubuntu [20:03] which is rough as i have to use the usb boot to even talk to u guys right now [20:04] i have nothing on my laptop [20:04] Your 1st instal?

See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [20:04] many many installs [20:04] 12.10 successful [20:04] Marco, try that nomodeset and see if it helps [20:04] 13.04 upgrade successful [20:04] Hello people =) [20:04] i love my ubuntu 12.04 but i want to update [20:04] mchlbhm: Are you using WPA?

Make sure the essid and passphrase are there. [20:09] MrBoss: The #ubuntu-touch channel is probably the best one to ask about support on the SG3 [20:09] and put on multiple usb drives [20:09] hi all, how do i add keyboard shortcuts to apps and menus? === Shehrazad is now known as ElixirVitae [20:10] pure: No. Think ultra n00b when dealing with me please. lol [20:13] what difference does it make if i just redownload 12.10 and install than update again to 1? cause this has taken me all day fri and sat and thats just silly.... so, will that be ok? what the difference?

[20:21] aaron__, right...Ijust checked...it isn't a valid option [20:21] th0r, this sudo modprobe -v sony-laptop [20:22] how do i enter command line prompt ?! [20:22] pure: gotta go. Wife is patient, but about to kill me. Thank you for everything. :D [20:22] mchlbhm: the legend is for nano, which is a text editor. Looks like you'll need to do some configuration. It's a little too detailed to walk you through on here. Do you have access to google at the moment? [20:22] SonikkuAmerica: What do you mean? I am on USB boot now... i will need to download and make new usb boot through here... using firefox.... and, i am unsure of what you mean by use chromium not chrome? id install either or AFTER the successful install of ubuntu [20:22] aaron__, according to the man page it gets you information as the program progresses [20:23] th0r, how did you find this? [20:23] aaron__, open a terminal and type 'man modprobe'. There is a man page for every command [20:23] Marco: The Chrome thing is about 13.04 not having a certain dependency that ChromE needs. (ChromIUM will work with no problems.) By upgrading the dependency will still be there. [20:24] Marco: Without that dependency (libudev0, if you're wondering) ChromE won't install.

[20:26] Purging? [20:26] aaron__, I don;t have such a keyboard so never had that problem. I would have to depend on google to lead me to the right info [20:26] Aethysius`: (KDE is in Qt) [20:26] !purge [20:26] To purge all removed but not yet purged packages, use the following command: dpkg -l | awk '/^rc/{print $2}' | sudo xargs dpkg -P [20:26] I see. [20:26] th0r, yeah the thing is i cant find anything that works [20:26] Aethysius`: [ sudo apt-get purge banshee ] is the command you want [20:26] th0r, i can find relevant things but nothing of them works [20:26] Then run [ sudo apt-get autoremove --purge ] [20:27] Aethysius`: ^ [20:27] Thank you.

I am trying to run a plug in for msoffice for school and I have several options (Win XP, windows 7 X32 and windows 7 X64) currently running Ubuntu 12.04 X64 [21:04] You control sudo through the "sudoers" file. To edit this file, run "sudo visudo".

[22:40] okay, raid0 -- fast and lots of storage space, but unrealiable, the more disks you add the faster and bigger it gets along with it's unreliablity [22:41] i cant remember what it is [22:41] raid1: fast reads, normal writes, reliable but half as much space [22:41] i just tried.. : http://paste.kde.org/741920 [22:42] subcool: you should probably just mount it as one, and see if the data are readable. [22:42] linux raids are (somewhat) specially formated [22:43] i really just want to get the info off and start fresh. [22:43] do you remember if it was raid1 or raid0?

[23:47] Hi, when I do X -configure, it tells me "Number of created screens does not match number of detected devices." [23:47] there was no window manager at that time [23:47] How can I fix this? [23:47] co-loco: the google chrome deb.. enables a ppa [23:47] co-loco: its somewhat rare for debs to do that [23:47] ok - then that's not the solution I'm looking for - hence I'm looking for a ppa if one exists [23:48] So you're looking for a solution to something no one else recognizes as a problem? [23:48] i just did xinit whatever and i could alt click drag, so how can i enable it with out a wm [23:48] no - couldn't I just manually add the ppa? [23:48] Prock: You cant, without a wm. [23:48] why do you not want to use a wm? [23:49] co-loco: you can manually add it.. the google-chrome deb enables the google ppa last i looked. [23:49] hi ubuntu'ers [23:49] !chrome [23:49] so what is a wm that u cant see, no features except alt draging, dont want the title bar at all [23:49] and the google chrome-deb is on google's websire, correct [23:50] Prock: you have to have a window manager if you want to be able to even switch windows or drag them... What you mean is no decorations. [23:50] Not sure that I've seen anything like that, although some of the lighter-weight WM's may be able to do that.

[23:54] ghost-warrior: really not in the 'ubuntu support' catagory.. not even sure how legal that is.. sounds like you may want to find a more legit way to use windows in the vm [23:54] how come wine is a dependency for winetricks ;o [23:54] i guess it kinda makes sense. could just download it from the site if you need it by itself [23:54] ghost-warrior: the VM will have access to networking. unless you disable the network in the vm. so its not going tobe totally locked down [23:55] Hey everyone, what is the proper way to setup dual screens in Ubuntu? I have 2 screens setup using Nvidia Proprietary drivers in TwinView config. Is this the correct option? [23:56] Dr_Willis_: yeh, sorry. I wiped my official win 8 installing 12.10 :( And i hadn't made a recovery disk.. Fail [23:56] I recently switched to 13.04 from OpenSUSE 12.2, where my HDMI audio output was working fine alongside my internal audio and I could switch application output from one to the other... Now ALSA recognizes my HDMI output by mixers using pulse do not. [23:56] Anyone ever see this? I've googled for the past two hours to no avail. [23:57] how can i send a video call through empathy [23:57] sha1sum, I'm having issues getting my HDMI output working on 12.10, Tried installing driver everything ?? [23:57] harrisr: It has good Google Talk audio support, not sure about video, though. [23:58] ghost-warrior: I've tried the proprietary AMD/ATI drivers and all that did was (ironically) screw up my video where I couldn't get the HDMI resolution past 1600x900. The audio situation, however, stayed the same. [23:58] so is there a wm that has no features, no hot keys, and forces everything full screen, no title bars (min/max/close) no menu bar to the wm its self, so only way to open an app is to call it with the wm [23:58] sha1sum, It worked fine on karmic 9.10 [23:58] Prock: you're looking for some kind of kiosk functionality.
