[00:00] subcool: mplayer /path/to/movie [00:00] AMD 64 dual core, nvidia 8200 [00:00] Ben66, VLC? [00:00] 4 gigs ram [00:00] thufir_: hold on still reinstalling [00:00] subcool: same thing, just replace mplayer with vlc [00:01] i opened the share with dolphin- i've done it before, im not sure whats the difference right now [00:01] subcool: i always mount the shares [00:01] netlar: that doesn't sound very old, should work [00:01] might be a reason- [00:01] That must be a record too, 6 installs on shame machine in 4 days [00:01] Jordan_U: done [00:02] netlar: i'd say either you're doing something wonky, or a hardware problem [00:02] how do you mount a NFS share.. - i forget.. i did it like 2 weeks ago.. [00:02] Ben66: the last couple of installs i was not installing or configuring anything [00:02] netlar: i'd suggest to you 12.04 64 bit [00:03] I'm experiencing audio skipping issues during CPU usage spikes. I'm running a 1.6Ghz CPU with sound integrated (it's an ASUS netbook - pretty bare bones) and I have a USB headset. Htop is showing pulseaudio taking up ~10% of my dual-core CPU, with total CPU use at around 35%. Is there anything I can do? [00:03] Ben66: why , is it more stable? [00:03] netlar: 12.04 is the latest LTS release, supported until 2017 [00:03] I followed this guide last time- but there was something wrong wit it [00:03] netlar: ive got you beat.. 12 different versions of linux on a dell mini in 2 days trying to figure out which one ran faster out the box [00:04] rafaelloest: Good. Do you have the backup drive connected? How large and what filesystem? Do you only care about user files (documents, pictures, music) or are configuration files important to you as well? [00:04] utfans05: but you doing that cause to try out, i am reinstalling same distro lol [00:04] netlar: a few weeks ago i had issues install arch from command line, took 5 times before i figure it out [00:04] litropy: If you don't get an answer here soon try asking in #pulseaudio. [00:05] utfans05: so you saying I have a chance [00:05] thx, jordan_U, that's my thought as well. [00:05] line from dumb and dumber [00:05] netlar: yes, sometimes its the smallest thing that you misses that throws it totally off [00:06] Jordan_U: I have a bkp drive on, it has 931gb (1TB), NTFS. User files are most important, but if possible, config files too [00:06] hi can anyone help me diagnose my audio problem ? for some reason it quit working, [00:07] Ben66, - thanks.. that did it [00:07] the stereo is fine, I tried removing / reinstalling pulse, [00:07] I tried restarting also, [00:07] alsa [00:07] nothing is muted [00:07] what's the command to file a bug about a defunct process owened by init? from CLI, I have no browser at the moment. [00:07] afaik [00:08] !details | Anom01y [00:08] Anom01y: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [00:08] !bug | thufir_ [00:08] thufir_: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. [00:09] does anyone else find that the free multiverse codecs seem to cause sound quality problems? or maybe it's ALSA or similar that needs adjustment? or, is that just me? [00:10] rafaelloest: I don't know enough about ntfs, Windows, and how testdisk recovers files, to say that I can get all of the correct permissions and other attributes saved but getting all the files shouldn't be a problem (at least all of the files that haven't been overwritten or had their metadata corrupted). [00:12] Jordan_U: No problem. [00:12] Does anyone know how to view the ip address that r hitting your ubuntu server? [00:12] john_doe_jr, wireshark? [00:13] I tend to use logwatch ;) but it depends on what you are wanting to watch excatly [00:14] th0r: isn't there a way to view the logs w/out wireshark? [00:15] look in /var/log perhaps? or set up the services you are monitoing to log the info [00:15] john_doe_jr, sure, but you didn't state any specifics [00:15] vague questions get vague answers. ;) [00:15] okay, so I have this command: rsync -va --delete --exclude='*/' source/ target > /dev/null 2>&1 [00:15] I want to add symbolic links to the exclude [00:16] how do I do that? [00:16] rafaelloest: I'm setting up a disk image with a partition to delete to try to lead you through the process better. [00:16] http://serverfault.com/questions/233623/using-rsyncs-archive-flag-without-copying-symbolic-links [00:17] Jordan_U: ok [00:17] rsync -a --no-links ... [00:17] thanks [00:17] So, I apparently cannot shutdown my computer. I keep getting the message 'Unable to shutdown', or 'Shutdown: Time Expected'. When I manually rebooted, the computer throws me back to the login screen. [00:18] * Dr_willis just googled for 'rsync exclude symbolic links' :) [00:18] I was barking up the wrong tree and trying to figure out how to do it through exclude [00:18] didn't realize no link was a thing [00:18] M0001: Are you able to login and work normally now that you know your password? [00:18] Dr_willis: Iirc -a will include links. I have to check man. >_> [00:19] M0001: It's "shutdown -h now" to shutdown by the way. [00:19] Nope. I login, and instead of getting an invalid passwod, I get thrown back to the login screen. [00:19] lasers, the --no-links has to follow the -a argument.. according to the url i posted [00:19] lasers, i just gooogled. ;) ive not used rsync this way [00:19] M0001: oh, you should learn your magic keys if you're having problems like this. wikipedia on magic keys, REISUB. check it out. [00:21] ,v rsync [00:21] dr_willis: I had a keyword that was throwing me off it seems [00:21] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5659790/ for dmesg [00:22] netlar: what's happening? is that when you're trying to shutdown, or start, or what? [00:22] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5659784/ lspci [00:22] thufir_: well right now, it is ok === mnepton is now known as mneptok [00:22] Dr_willis: I can't find "no-link" in the man. Erm. [00:23] netlar: in general words, what's the problem? doesn't shutdown cleanly sometimes? [00:23] lasers, all i did was google.. and found the url mentioned.. [00:23] thufir_: it only seems to happen when I add a second user, so let me trythat [00:24] thufir_: yes, sometimes will not shut down cleanly [00:24] Dr_willis: Ah okay. I think somebody wrote an answer and received 6 upvotes. Also, "Correct answer!" without any fact-checking. Hehe. [00:24] I need help with ubuntu [00:25] kb8wlu: State your issue and we'll help if we can. [00:25] anyone got experience with install on raid 1 using mdadm? [00:25] so, maybe user #1 shutsdown cleanly, user #2 hangs when you try to shutdown? I *think*, but could be wrong, that dmesg output should give some indication of what's going. [00:26] I did a try ubuntu from the cd disk but want to install ubuntu 13.04 with win7 on two seperate hard drives can figure out what i need to do [00:26] Can somone give me a call [00:26] thufir_: yes that is it, happens when I have two users logged in [00:27] utfans05, I am using ubuntu 12.04, and the audio just stopped working, I may have done something but I don't know what, [00:27] netlar: and when you click "shutdown" with the mouse, it hangs? what is your desktop environment? [00:28] I have tried uninstalling reinstalling pulseaudio [00:28] reloading alsa [00:28] newbie with linux here need help [00:28] resetting the computer, checking if things are muted, ect [00:28] Jordan_U: done? [00:28] kb8wlu: If you don't want the hard drives to touch each others (and want to experiment with Ubuntu) without risking data loss due to silly newbie mistakes. Just keep one hard drive plugged in. Switch around. Etc. [00:28] but the sound is not working [00:28] I think it has something to do with flash but don't know [00:28] (adobe) [00:28] Anom01y: i have never had to troubleshoot sound issues. [00:29] rafaelloest: No, sorry working on multiple things at the moment, but I am still here. === zz_wicked is now known as wicked [00:29] need help installing ubuntu [00:29] exit [00:30] Need help installing ubuntu can someon help me [00:30] ok well I am going to try and uninstall / reinstall alsa [00:31] hello everyone ,i wonder how to read a .index file ,it's binary system.. [00:31] Jordan_U: prevision? [00:31] !install [00:31] Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall - Don't want to use a CD? See http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [00:32] rafaelloest: I don't understand what you're asking. [00:33] Jordan_U: how much time you that is going to take? === shah is now known as shah` [00:35] rafaelloest: Done :) [00:35] how to read and translate a binary file? === iarp_ is now known as iarp [00:35] netlar: /var/log/kern.log | pastebinit to see shutdown logs. [00:36] thufir_: echo or cat, surely? [00:36] somsip: why not pastebinit? [00:37] thufir_: I thought you had to cat or echo through the pipe to pastebinit? My bad if not [00:37] Jordan_U:right [00:37] commandthatmakesouput | pastebinit [00:38] or it an read from a file [00:38] somsip: you know, I think that works. no cat necessary, although you might want to tail it :) [00:38] rafaelloest: First, mount the partition you're going to backup to. Do you know how to do that? [00:38] thufir_: Possibly netlar will ask if he can't get it to work [00:38] he's probably rebooting or something [00:39] I am on irc from a different computer now [00:39] Jordan_U: well, i plugged it and i can access it alredy [00:40] somsip: good grief, that was silly of me. you're right. [00:40] looking at the log now [00:40] rafaelloest: Good. Please run "mount" and pastebin the output so that I can see what its mountpoint is. [00:40] thufir_: np [00:41] it is a little big [00:41] Jordan_U: it is a little big [00:43] mount | pastebinit [00:43] thufir_: Can I clear that log, and recreate the problem? [00:43] rafaelloest: Copy and paste the output to http://pastebin.ubuntu.com or use "mount | pastebinit" then post the link here. [00:44] http://pastebin.com/MerrXPGC [00:44] netlar: "man tail" tail -n 99 I think. [00:44] Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/MerrXPGC [00:45] netlar: tail -n {number of lines} -f {file} [00:46] Secret Maryo chronicles wont start I am using ubuntu 12.04 [00:46] Ok, My system is locked now, lets see what posted [00:46] rafaelloest: OK, assuming the drive is "SAMSUNG", the mountpoint is /media/ubuntu/SAMSUNG , which we'll need to know later. [00:46] rafaelloest: Please pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l". [00:49] Jordan_U: http://pastebin.com/FPJTQ9gg [00:49] sup guys [00:49] thufir_: bad new, nothing posted to the log [00:49] news* [00:49] log news for what? [00:50] it seems like since the last kernel upgrade my alsa stopped working [00:50] pulseaudio, whatever [00:50] how are your speakers hooked up and what ubuntu release/kernel are yopu using? [00:51] rafaelloest: And the 1 TB drive that's not the backup drive is the one you want to recover files from? (sda) [00:51] Dr_willis, I never changed the hookup of the speakers, [00:51] netlar: hmm. if your machine isn't shutting down properly and noting is getting logged to /var/log/syslog then I'm not sure how to get more data. I suspect it's a problem with Unity, perhaps there's a bug. [00:51] Anom01y, and how are they hooked up? ANalog out? Hdmi? built into a laptop? [00:52] Jordan_U: yes [00:52] :) [00:52] infact when I unplug the 3/4" stereo headphone jack from the back of my soundcard and touch the tip with my fingers, I hear the buzzing on my stereo, so I know the stereo is working [00:52] thufir_: just with me? [00:52] Dr_willis, analog [00:52] So, yeah. 'Shutdown -h now' doesn't seem to work. I did a magic key reboot and it allowed a reboot, but when I try to log in to Ubuntu with my new password, I get a black screen and thrown back to the login screen. [00:52] netlar: nono, a bug with the software, **maybe**. [00:53] rafaelloest: Then you should be more careful not to mount any of the partitions on it, as if you write to them you risk losing data. Run "sudo umount /dev/sda2" to unmount the ext4 partition. [00:53] M0001: what is your graphics card? lspci for that output. and, what is xorg.conf look like? [00:53] Anom01y: try this command see what you get back > sudo aplay -l [00:53] thufir_: How can I get the log for the other user, he is not an admin [00:54] netlar: shutdown logs go, so far as I know, to one log file. [00:54] Morph4me, ok one sec [00:54] thufir_: integrated Intel. Not sure what xorg.conf is? [00:55] Morph4me, Dr_willis by the way, if I turn up my stereo to full blast I can barely hear the music from the computer, [00:55] thufir_: the other non admin user does have the files kern.log and one other called kern.log~ [00:55] I think I'm just going to reinstall Ubuntu; there's nothing wrong with the loader, and this time I won't set SU. Thanks for the help. [00:55] Jordan_U: done, but i can see it in my hotbar [00:55] so it is very quiet [00:55] Jordan_U: as a 992gb volume [00:55] rafaelloest: That's fine, just don't click it. [00:55] M0001: pastebinit /etc/X11/xorg.conf mine is like so: http://pastebin.com/yQKJuiP2 if that helps. [00:55] some application (flash or something) ruined the audio perhaps ? [00:56] rafaelloest: Now run "sudo testdisk /dev/sda" and post a screenshot of what you get. [00:56] Morph4me, that command you gave me seems like it is working [00:56] !screenshot | rafaelloest [00:56] rafaelloest: Screenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://imagebin.org/?page=add and post a link to it. [00:57] Anom01y: try typing in terminal >alsamixer then use the arrow keys to navigate and set if needed also hit f6 when there and arrow keys to choose the sound card set if that went south [00:57] Morph4me, I am trying that now, [00:58] when I try adjusting the sound, I get the little volume window that appears in the top-right of my screen, but it shows it is at minimum volume, it will not turn up [00:58] seems like the PCM channel is missing and turned down [00:59] Here is the other log thufir_ paste.ubuntu.com/5659853 [00:59] Jordan_U: http://imagebin.org/257452 [00:59] Anom01y : if that all fails try the help site for ubuntu > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting [00:59] sorry http://paste.ubuntu.com/5659853/ [00:59] Morph4me, thank you I will check [01:00] thufir_: that log is from kern.log~ [01:00] rafaelloest: Hit Enter to proceed then post another screenshot. [01:01] rafaelloest: If you have low bandwidth I can also tell you how to take a screeshot of just the terminal window (we're going to be doing a lot of screenshots). [01:01] Jordan_U: http://imagebin.org/257453 [01:01] Jordan_U: I have a good bandwidth [01:02] rafaelloest: Great. Enter again (and from now on, assume I want a screenshot unless I say otherwise :) [01:03] Jordan_U: EfFI GTP? [01:03] rafaelloest: Yes (Enter). === Htbrdd- is now known as Htbrdd [01:05] Jordan_U: http://imagebin.org/257454 [01:05] rafaelloest: Enter again. [01:07] Jordan_U: http://imagebin.org/257455 [01:08] rafaelloest: Go one to the right and select [Backup ] [01:09] Jordan_U: then enter? [01:09] rafaelloest: Yes. === marvin is now known as Guest5808 [01:10] Jorda_U: http://imagebin.org/257456 [01:11] Is there a page that summarizes what an Administrator account can do vs. what a Standard account can do in Ubuntu 13.04 - added from the User Accounts gui? [01:12] rafaelloest: Hopefully that screen will change (and you can type the first few characters of my nick, like "jor" then hit tab to complete it automatically). [01:13] from chrome, xdg-open seems to always just open a new chrome window and do nothing else when I try and click on a torrent link. how do I fix this? [01:13] darii, normal users can only mess with files in their home.. and /tmp/ and so forth.. root/admin users can change files anywhere, and thus install apps and configure the system as needed [01:13] touchpad pointed quit moving, any suggestions on a command line restart of it? [01:13] *pointer* [01:13] Jordan_U: http://imagebin.org/257457 [01:14] Dr_willis: only administrator can add/remove printers and stuff like that? [01:14] darii, yes. that would be configuring the system. theres ways to allow users to do specific admin tasks. [01:15] rafaelloest: Did you select [Analyse ]? [01:15] Dr_willis: way from the gui, or command line only? [01:15] darii, your goal is to allow non admin/root users full access to configuring the printers? and thats it? [01:15] Jordan_U: no, i selected backup === NePtUnO is now known as NePtUnO|Off [01:16] Dr_willis: my goal is to just understand how everything works and what's possible form the gui === qos|away is now known as qos [01:17] darii - anything. since the os is open source, if it can be done, likely someone somewhere has made gui for it [01:17] darii, theres not going to be a quick answer to that.. other then 'root does admin/config tasks' and 'users dont do things that could break the system' :) each specific service/task Might have ways to let users have more controll. [01:17] darii, and if they havent, you can [01:18] Dr_willis: I'm plenty unix admin savvy - just want to know what the GUI tools provided in Ubuntu make available [01:18] darii, for what service :) theres no all in one gui for this all. [01:19] Jordan_U: you said to select backup [01:19] at least none setup by default. [01:19] rafaelloest: I made an image with an msdos label rather than GPT, let me make one with a GPT label and see if I can get to where you are. [01:19] !info ebox [01:19] Package ebox does not exist in raring [01:19] !ebox [01:19] zentyal is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Zentyal (Project formally known as eBox - including in Lucid/10.04). [01:19] darii, why just the ones provided by ubuntu? there's zillions of management programs outside of ubuntu's repos [01:20] rafaelloest: Yes, but the screen you came to was not what I was expecting to see. [01:20] can anyone help me on my ubuntu [01:21] im trying to run League of legends [01:21] and whats League of Legends? [01:21] loads everything and all exept while in game the screen freezes [01:21] a game [01:21] some windows game? [01:21] Thats playable via playonlinux [01:21] Dr_willis, it's the most common online game on PC hardware [01:21] yes on windows [01:22] can anyone help? [01:22] Playonlinux uses wine, so you really should be checking the wine app database and perhaps the playonlinux website/support areas [01:22] ok [01:23] Dr_willis, this is strange, in pulseaudio mixer, I can see the music playing on the volume bar thing, [01:23] its not muted, [01:23] i think they something like 13 million concurrent users [01:23] the volume is very quiet though [01:23] Anom01y, check what hardware output its set to be using in the sound config tool or pavucontrol perhaps [01:23] i kind of tried to sit down one day and design infrastructure for something that size, and realised i had no clue! [01:23] Anom01y, ive seen issues where it defaults to the wrong hardware out. [01:24] Dr_willis, ok [01:24] sudo restart touchpad? [01:25] I can "ecryptfs-recover-private" and recover my data files. But when i login to my passphrase it says wrong passphrase. Why im seeing this? Is there a way to open it in my desktop? [01:25] or it could be using the wrong audio out port. [01:25] When i ecryptfs-recover-private, i can see the files recovered in /tmp [01:25] see or read? [01:25] mdfe read [01:26] ecryptfs is killing me. Ive change so many password in my username [01:26] i want my files really bad [01:27] Dr_willis, it seems like its on the wrong device because I don't have an "oxygen HD audio" I have an Asus Xonar DG [01:27] but I can't change it in the pulse audio control center [01:27] rafaelloest: OK, I was able to get to the option with my test image, it seems that it saves a log file and then continues (as if you had pressed [Quick Search ]). [01:27] what do you guys suppose this means ? [01:27] sudo modprobe snd-[NAME OF YOUR SOUNDCARD'S DRIVER] [01:28] er [01:28] lsemple@TRP:~$ pulseaudio [01:28] E: [pulseaudio] pid.c: Daemon already running. [01:28] E: [pulseaudio] main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed. [01:28] lsemple@TRP:~$ ^C [01:28] pulseaudio is a service and its allready running..... [01:29] maybe its a gstreamer issue ? [01:29] rafaelloest: I was expecting it to ask for a filename, but it just saves to "backup.log" without prompting. [01:29] Jordan_U: ah, ok [01:29] Does anyone know what should i do if my game client freezes on startup with league of legends everything else works fine tho [01:30] Is there other way to get back my files? I regret to put passphrase [01:30] rafaelloest: Scroll down to the second partition and press "p". [01:31] Anom01y, you did click on the speaker at top right -> sound settings, Outputtab - and looked at what other outputs you can try? [01:32] Jordan_U: http://imagebin.org/257458 [01:32] anyone who knows how to do bandwidth management per user basis when the network is near full utilization? [01:34] rafaelloest: Ok, that's not what you want (it's listing the files from the ext4 partition). [01:34] Dr_willis, yeah there is no setting to change the outputs [01:35] it shows "oxygen hd audio" [01:35] Anon01y: try a few cat commands to show you "playback" output ... but use pastebinit ...don't post all the lines in here or the floodbots will flag you > cat /proc/asound/pcm and cat /proc/asound/devices [01:35] rafaelloest: Last time I believe that you said that you were able to get testdisk to list the files from your deleted Windows partition, are you sure that that was the case? [01:35] Morph4me, ok lets do this [01:35] Jordan_U: ok, when i found the old partitions i did a analyze and then did a deep search [01:36] could try the pavucontrol tool (install it ) and see if it shows any devices.. [01:36] Morph4me, Dr_willis --> http://pastebin.com/QKmisbi8 [01:36] I had sound issues here.. but that was with my HDMI audio out.. i switched to the 3.9 kernel and it started working for me. (on 13.04) [01:38] Dr_willis, Morph4me I -can- barely hear the music playing but it is so quiet even when on max volume [01:38] rafaelloest: OK. "q", then do that. [01:38] I can change my pass using this command "ecryptfs-rewrap-passphrase /home/.ecryptfs/allanx0/.ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase but i cannot open the Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop after entering the new pass it says "ERROR: Your passphrase is incorrect" now i change again the pass and it works. But i am unable to open the access-your-data [01:39] Anom01y : multichannel eh ? what did you get for your card again could you post it plz > sudo aplay -l [01:39] Jordan_U: i can press enter then i can choose Deeper Search [01:40] Morph4me, http://pastebin.com/Ymew3jAQ [01:43] Anyone have ecrypt here? [01:43] maybe I should take the card out and look for blow capacitors [01:43] I so need my files and my vbox isos [01:43] Anon01y at this point 2 things you can do either reboot you said you change the sound card in alsamixer or take Dr_willis suggestion and the pavucontrol tool (install it ) and see if it shows any devices. [01:44] rafaelloest: Choose Deeper Search. [01:44] Morph4me, I have tried all the settings in alsamixer and pavucontrol there is nothing there that seems to do anything [01:45] reboot [01:45] yeah [01:45] did that a few times [01:45] going to try again [01:45] kk [01:45] Jordan_U: this will take some time...

[02:06] Dr_willis: the fglrx drivers don't have vdpau support/ didn't work just tried them [02:06] sing the following configure arguments: --with-gallium-drivers=r600 --enable-vdpau. [02:07] Dr_willis: yeah but I don't know how to do that [02:07] so you extract the source, cd into the dir.. ./configure --with-gallium-drivers=r600 --enable-vdpau [02:07] rafaelloest: What percentage are you at? [02:07] then make, sudo make install [02:07] Anom01y: in your sound setting (OUTPUT) changing from analog to digital using the TEST speaker playback feature maybe you are picking the wrong one in the drop down menu ie digital 5.1 instead of say analog stereo if your card is capable that is [02:08] the follow the rest of that guide.. (is how im reading that guide) [02:08] Dr_willis: ./configure no such file [02:08] shape, you need to be in the source directroy you extracted from that arcvhive [02:08] hi!

[04:22] mdfe, try living abroad. [04:22] Where is abroad? Sometimes I do move around a bit. [04:23] Another country, 2000 miles away from family. [04:25] there are so many chat services and voip and whatnot, most people i know have several, so i never need to use any particular one [04:25] i cant get this specific external HD to mount with r/w access [04:25] only root has permission [04:25] Which means you have to use many to chat with different people. [04:25] i know i can run nautilus in root and whatnot but that makes file transfer slow [04:26] What hardware does ubuntu phone support? [04:26] the ones with secure boot [04:27] the_misfit try "sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /media/mountpoint" [04:27] icedwater, yes i need to use two because one doesnt work in a particular country due to national censorship [04:27] Hadogenes: sure, but why is this specific drive and not the others? is it the way i partitioned it or something? [04:28] I am making an assumption to be honest. [04:28] the_misfit, is there any kind of security feature on the drive? [04:28] i have seen external HD with password locks on, for example [04:28] mdfe: like a physical switch? no, but it is sort of unique in that it has an on/off switvh [04:29] physical or software; one i had once had a password program [04:29] LMDE 201303 is out! [04:29] If you can mount it with nautilus, I don't see the problem. I doubt that has anything to do with it being slow. [04:29] Device /dev/sdb1 is already mounted at `/media/usb0'. [04:29] is what happens when it tries to automount [04:29] nautilus would mount it with fuse though, i do find fuse is slightly slower, but not a huge amuount [04:29] and it mounts, it just only has root user perms [04:30] mmm [04:30] root user permissions? [04:31] root is the owner [04:31] What filesystem does the drive have? [04:31] fat32 [04:33] Ah, you are mounting it through fuse [04:33] I think your user might have to be part of a group that has access to that drive. [04:35] the_misfit, i have done some googling. it seems if the drive's filesystem is damaged, it will mount root only to protect it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB [04:35] can anyone help me with getting my league of legends runningon my ubuntu? [04:36] but dont get the impression it IS damaged [04:36] steven_, it works fine under playonlinux, if not, it's probably drivers. you can update those from the software updater, whch has a subscreen for hardware/drivers === rethaw_ is now known as rethaw [04:37] the_misfit, it seems also if the guid is different, it will also mount as read only [04:37] would this be the proper channel to ask about installing wordpress with ubuntu 12.04? [04:37] how do i update drivers [04:38] via terminal [04:38] Crashmoney99: I think #wordpress might work better [04:38] rafaelloest: What percentage is it at now? [04:38] steven_, look in software updates then click the 5th tab which is marked 'additional drivers' [04:38] belak51: thank you [04:39] mdfe: thanks [04:43] Is ubuntu phone available yet for downlaod? [04:43] Hey where is a good place to figure out my pam setup [04:44] mdfe: thanks, all i had to do was run a check [04:44] a [04:45] hello [04:45] mdfe: and 'for the record' files transfer 10x then using root to force it, for some reason. anyway thanks again [04:46] the_misfit, that's probably the 'damage' slowing it up [04:47] a [04:47] :/ [04:50] JoeyJoeJo: I don't believe so from the site, but you've been able to get it from the repos for a while. Hak5 demonstrated the installation process, a quick google should find you that I think. [04:54] JoeyJoeJo, #ubuntu-touch see channel headers [04:55] What does success=2 default=ignore mean in a pam config? [04:56] headphones not working between reboots, dont know what is going on [04:57] 12.04.2 amd64 [04:58] hi folks, i'm having a problem with 13.04. when i plug a usb mouse into my laptop, neither the mouse or touchpad can raise focus on another window [04:58] touchpad works fine alone [04:58] part [04:59] also, alt-tab and super+w don't work with the usb mouse plugged in [04:59] * jmurrib21 Hello all. I bought a new PC that comes with Win8. it's a HP p2-1334 AMD E1-1200. I want to use Ubuntu 13.04 on the pc. Created a bootable USB drive and also a live cd from an ISO image. I'm unable to install ubuntu, I get a blank screen after selecting to install ubuntu and pc hangs. Any suggestions? [04:59] seems like a compiz bug [04:59] jmurrib21, sounds like you might have a protected bootloader [05:00] ok [05:00] jmurrib21, might want to check the bios settings [05:00] see if there's an option to disable it [05:00] i saw something like that on Bios [05:00] how far did you get in the boot process again? [05:01] was it to the text-based Ubuntu boot menu? [05:01] to do safe install or whatever [05:01] * jmurrib21 was able to select no boot protection but still the same issue. [05:01] do you get to the liveCD desktop? [05:01] and click "Install" instead of "Try [05:01] " [05:01] * jmurrib21 was a text based ubuntu boot menu [05:02] a tty or gui [05:02] * jmurrib21 yes i did click install instead of try [05:02] but it was the text-based menu, not selecting with a mouse [05:02] jmurrib21: Why are you using /me before every message? [05:02] sorry [05:02] jatakk, heh, it is a little strange [05:03] jmurrib21, anyway, what i'm trying to get at [05:03] is maybe your graphics card is not supported / auto-detected [05:03] stranger still, he went straight to 'install' [05:03] you will have to manually install the amd drivers [05:04] thebishop you seem very knowledgable about boot partitions [05:04] i know i should like win8 right away [05:04] but i don't [05:04] fglrx driver [05:04] jmurrib21, [05:04] http://askubuntu.com/questions/124292/what-is-the-correct-way-to-install-ati-catalyst-video-drivers-fglrx/129200#129200 [05:04] that might help [05:05] thebishop maybe if you have time you could peek at http://pastebin.com/qdiRexyQ .. boot sector takes too long to complete [05:05] jmurrib21, do you know how to get to the bios from windows 8 [05:05] thebishop its a macbook pro [05:05] no [05:05] C0nD0r, yeah i see it's a mac [05:05] what's the problem? [05:06] well, I can boot into the USB with unetboot just fine [05:06] i do get to the bios at POS by hitting F10 [05:06] C0nD0r, aright [05:06] POST* [05:06] thebishop however I may have a wrong partition [05:06] jmurrib21, go to the start page i guess its called that, then type bios [05:06] Jordan_U: done [05:06] C0nD0r, well,you don't have any linux partition on here === stochasm- is now known as stochasm [05:07] are you trying to wipe out OSX, or dual-boot? [05:07] thebishop yes I was hoping the ubuntu install would do that through fdisk or cdisk [05:07] Jordan_U: http://imagebin.org/257465 [05:07] jmurrib21, its the menus where you can select the desktop [05:07] thebishop dual boot with OSX , hackintosh, windows 7 option and ubuntu [05:07] then type in bios [05:07] looking for it [05:08] C0nD0r, the liveCD installer will give you a few options to partition like "Use the whole disk" or it'll let you create your own partitioning using Gparted [05:08] C0nD0r, you might have problems there [05:08] jmurrib21, mouse over to the bottom left hand corner and a popup shouls appear click on that [05:08] C0nD0r, you have GPT partition table [05:08] i'm not sure windows can boot that [05:09] should* [05:09] yeah? [05:09] thebishop should I wipe my current ubuntu distro off the USB and use livecd or use another usb disk [05:09] then type in bios [05:09] C0nD0r, no the "liveCD" is basically synonymous with USB stick now [05:09] jmurri21, if you need help just ask [05:09] C0nD0r, and it performs a lot better [05:09] so keep using it [05:10] jmurrib21, if you need help just ask [05:10] C0nD0r but i think you're going to have some problems [05:10] resizing a Mac partition for starters [05:10] thebishop how do youb purpose I get by the boot sector loading that nexer completes, if you might have any ideaa. [05:10] i don't see something that says Bios on the start page === megha is now known as Guest401 [05:10] thebishop thanks for taking my query, btw [05:11] if i move the mouse to the top right corner i can see the configuration option [05:11] jmurrib21, just start typing bios [05:11] nothing [05:11] jmurrib21, hold on let me boot to windows [05:11] C0nD0r, I don't know how the hackintosh (chemelon?) OSX bootloader works enough to help much [05:12] C0nD0r, you're not booting Ubuntu yet because you haven't installed it [05:12] C0nD0r, and i think you're going to have to use a manual configuration with gparted to get the tri-boot working [05:12] ubuntu won't figure that out automatically [05:13] it looks like mac partitions make up the whole drive right now, so you got some work to do [05:13] hi all, I"m trying to get serial redirection working on 12.04 with SOL, I followed the instructions to add /etc/init/ttyS1 and update /etc/default/grub but I'm still not seeing any output [05:13] jmurrib21, ok type in bios on the start page and select settings [05:13] thebishop I was hoping that unetbootin along with ReFIT would help with that [05:14] i think i found something alike [05:14] C0nD0r, unetboot in isn't going to help your HDD partition map. It just lets you boot into an ubuntu live environment. you have to actually go through the formatting/installing process [05:14] and you're doing it in the worst order [05:14] it's PC settings [05:14] and there is an advance option [05:15] because windows7 will eat your partition map [05:15] the whole thing [05:15] advanced startup [05:15] that's assuming it can boot on a GPT partition table, which i've never tried === bill is now known as Guest35168 [05:15] thebishop is there a way using a DD command in OSX to format and install ubuntu without chemelon [05:15] hello [05:15] it says to start up from a CD or USB device [05:15] C0nD0r, erm, no [05:16] C0nD0r, chemeleon is the hackintosh bootloader that allows OSX to boot on non-apple hardware [05:16] C0nD0r, at least it was the last time i ever played with that [05:16] which was a while ago [05:16] how much should i save for the linux swap partition? [05:17] thebishop will the diskutility i hackintosh provide any good options [05:17] jmurrib21: the rule of thumb is 2xram but it depends. [05:17] C0nD0r, yes. but the partitioning tool on ubuntu "gparted" is more powerful [05:18] C0nD0r, it sounds like you should get a feel for the install of each os [05:18] jmurrib21: it becomes difficult to do with 72gig of raided storage and 128gig of ram tho. [05:18] Jordan_U: after continue http://imagebin.org/257466 [05:18] before you try tri-booting them [05:18] each OS has bootloader and partitioning quirks [05:18] thebishop likely not a linux option I would imagine in the hackintosh disk utility [05:19] C0nD0r, if you're going to tri-boot, you need to leave enough empty space [05:19] i eas here earlyer on my newer laptop, it now has 13.04 64-bit, i have used some wifi spots on it so i know wifi works, but spot im at now it wont connect, Password is correct, im talking to you now with my old laptop, What would be the problem??? [05:19] C0nD0r, you can't let the disk utility consume the whole drive and expect the ubuntu installer to cope with that [05:19] not if you want a working computer, anyway [05:19] 13.04 [05:20] sirkhctiw: was that reply for me [05:20] I fried my laptop that I had with ubuntu 12.10 upgraded to 13.04 in an external hard drive. do you think if I plug in that HDD in the new pc will start with the OS installed on it or I need to re-install from the begining? Maybe? [05:20] I have a question, will ubuntu 12.10 forever be on kernel 3.5? [05:21] jmurrib21, idk if a usb cable will act like that [05:22] i think you need to plug it into the regular spot a hdd goes [05:22] who is good with wifi problems here [05:23] brb after trying options [05:24] thebishop any other useful information. on actually formatting withi hackintosh [05:24] Could someone please suggest resources (books/sites) to master terminal? New to Ubuntu [05:26] fhgvjv: tldp.org [05:26] ******!

[06:35] aethysius, what type of hdd is it [06:35] External FireWire drive. [06:37] niccaballs, networking or linux might be of some assistance [06:37] is it possible to get compiz effects to work with Gnome 3? [06:37] wethepeople, what do you mean? [06:37] aethysius, can you connect a ide or sata connections to it? [06:38] niccaballs, irc channels [06:38] Aethysius: What version of Ubuntu and is the drive recognised at all? [06:38] Ok, thanks [06:38] <_thufir_> I'm looking at the contents of /etc/default/grub and recall a variable which controls whether the boot process is to text mode (console) or directly to xubuntu. I'm downloading xubuntu-desktop onto 13.10 server. [06:38] buengenio: Not with GNOME Shell, no (GNOME3 is a lot more than just GNOME Shell). [06:39] No, and it's Raring Ringtail Kubuntu. [06:39] Jordan_U, so can I have gnome 3 without gnome shell? [06:39] _thufir_: Once you've finished installing the xubuntu-desktop package when you reboot it will boot into a GUI Login screen by default, no other change needed. [06:40] <_thufir_> Jordan_U: ok then :) only 99 hours to go. :) [06:40] Hmmmm. [06:40] buengenio: Yes. Ubuntu Desktop by default is GNOME3 without GNOME Shell (using Unity, a compiz plugin, as the Window Manager and dock). [06:40] hello, can anybody tell me where my compizsettings are stored? [06:41] vice_, what distro [06:41] how do i disable the shortcut ALT+LMB [06:41] Aethysius: Please pastebin the output of "sudo blkid" and "dmesg". [06:41] WeThePeople: Does that matter? gentoo, compiz 0.8.* [06:41] guys who can help me with crontab rule ? i must start script every monday/Thursday an 2.00 UTC [06:42] I think I've got it, hold on. [06:42] vice_: This is #ubuntu... [06:42] WeThePeople: I am asking here because YOU are the compiz people :P [06:43] idk in gentoo [06:43] <_thufir_> when I ran "apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" why did apt ask about downloading without, IIRC, verifying security? [06:43] _thufir_: you need to install the key for the repo [06:44] _thufir_: Normally "sudo apt-get update" will fix that. You should avoid ignoring such errors whenever possible. [06:44] <_thufir_> nevyn: ah, I see. thanks. [06:45] <_thufir_> yes. thanks. === doebi_ is now known as doebi [06:47] Do I read this correctly, that libwagon2-java depends on libwagon-java, but can't be installed because it conflicts with libwagon-java? http://pastie.org/7901483 [06:48] Hi there, I need some help. I have a laptop, tablet type. I need something like: Magik Rotation. But for xubuntu 13.04. I mean, when I rotate the screen automatically rotate the desktop too. thank you very much [06:49] so every time i` try too do an apt-get update i get this "GPG" error... > http://pastebin.com/EyYxNv41 [06:51] son0fra, thats a bug [06:53] hi [06:53] link linuxmint-help === furcate is now known as snow_usa [06:53] oops. am ubuntu [06:53] that's rather unfortunate [06:53] http://pastebin.com/EyYxNv41 [06:54] ? [06:54] hi [06:55] i upgrade my ubuntu and now the boundaries of the screen are not shown :( [06:56] snow_usa, what version [06:56] the one released today [06:56] 13.... [06:56] take a pic of it and paste here>>> imgh.us [07:01] Maew~ === omni is now known as Guest4551 [07:02] * Aethysius headdesks [07:03] It worked in Mint with no issues! [07:03] so ? [07:03] I'm upgrading to 13.04 [07:03] and now, about 1 inch from my screen boundaries are black !!! === StephenS_ is now known as StephenS [07:04] snow_usa, see additional drivers [07:04] you might need a driver installed [07:04] WeThePeople: could you be more specific ;) ? [07:05] do you have a unity desktop [07:05] the slider to the left [07:05] where all the programs are at [07:05] click the ubuntu logo and type additional driers [07:06] at the top [07:06] drivers* [07:06] snow_usa^^^ [07:07] WeThePeople: Would be better if it's in the command line [07:07] because I'm having some trouble with xserver [07:08] ok, type this>>> jockey-text --list [07:09] note that I'm using blackbox [07:10] I suspect there is some problem with the video card driver [07:10] what is blackbox [07:10] nvr mind got it [07:11] so can you select nautilus as a file manager === dad is now known as Guest95808 [07:12] or window manager [07:12] lspci | grep VGA [07:13] Iits' ATI RV710 [07:13] I want to get a laptop that I plan to dual boot with windows and ubuntu. the laptop is not officially ubuntu certified, so I'm wondering how I can look into whether I can expect to encounter any hardware issues. [07:14] it's an acer laptop and unfortunately it's been hard for me to find full hardware specs. :( [07:14] ningu, do a sudo lshw in ubuntu [07:15] WeThePeople: this is *before* I purchase it. [07:15] ningu: then you'll just have to google the model number and terms like ubuntu + bugs/problems/graphics/wifi/etc and search the forum [07:15] hi all [07:15] hi [07:17] hmm [07:17] well I just found on the acer website where you can download all of the windows drivers for it -- maybe I can figure out what they're drivers for [07:17] got my fresh install again [07:17] ningu: You can get a pretty good idea just by booting from a LiveDVD/USB and trying it. [07:18] Jordan_U: I know, unfortunately I don't know of anywhere near me that has the machine in stock. [07:18] Hey guys, I'm trying to setup jailkit. It's already chrooting for SSH, but when I connect using WinSCP (SFTP). It's not chrooted. Any ideas how to fix this? [07:18] and there aren't a lot of reviews online since it's somewhat special-need [07:18] although it's still in production it seems [07:19] <_thufir_> was there someone on here earlier with a shutdown problem? where, when logged into another account, unity wouldn't shutdown cleanly? [07:20] <_thufir_> ningu: you may have to make a custom xorg.conf depending on your graphics card. for SiS, for example. [07:20] _thufir_: yes me [07:21] <_thufir_> netlar: good, I may have come across a work-around while looking into grub [07:21] Why is my trackpad vertical speed 2x horizontal when I have an external monitor connected? [07:21] _thufir_: i tried that other thing with the grub file, all it did was freeze my machine, had to reinstall again [07:21] the specs say intel NM70 chipset, which I assume is well supported by linux although I haven't checked yet. [07:22] <_thufir_> netlar: find the grub webpage for ubuntu, it's there. find the part about grub cmdline linux default and the bios. [07:22] _thufir_: yes did that, just locks up my machine [07:22] <_thufir_> netlar: lol. oh well, guess don't do that. [07:23] _thufir_: just going to be careful and wait for Ubuntu to fix it [07:23] <_thufir_> netlar: yeah. what happened with "sudo shutdown -h now" from the other account? [07:24] how do i disable ALT+LMB? [07:24] I keep getting displays about my wifi when I am in tty 13.04 x64 [07:24] _thufir_: I will try that later [07:24] <_thufir_> netlar: np [07:24] _thufir_: went and tried Fedora [07:24] how do i edisable the window shortcut ALT+LMB? [07:24] _thufir_: Did not like it at all [07:24] disable* [07:25] _thufir_: I am going to stick with Ubuntu for better and for worse [07:25] yofun: why do you need/want to disable that? [07:25] for blender [07:25] _thufir_: this is not my production machine anyway, just for learning linux [07:26] so i can move around in the 3D program called blender (touchpad instead of 3 button mouse) [07:26] this? http://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?213187-view-question-(alt-LMB)-for-blender-2-56 [07:26] * _thufir_ blames unity [07:27] ok so here's a more general question... the windows driver says: * Target Chipset#: Intel(R) 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family [07:27] _thufir_: imo , think unity is still in the developmental stages [07:27] even in tmux I am getting all the header frams tty1-6 [07:27] <_thufir_> six minutes to go xubuntu! whee [07:27] how would I check whether the linux kernel will have issues with that chipset? [07:27] aside from googling forums [07:27] BoredomKills: yes but theres a shortcut that overrides it [07:27] ningu: try it out? [07:28] BoredomKills: I don't have the machine. [07:28] I want to know before I get it. [07:28] _thufir_: but i love the workflow of it, I think it is subtle but very effective desktop model [07:28] ningu: Until you said that, I kinda thought that Linux Kernel works with all [07:29] well, afaik you can't (easily) install linux on a chromebook for example [07:29] but not sure if that's a hardware issue or what [07:30] ningu: that's because you can't get into the bootloader, which causes the problem of us not being able to boot from the live cd [07:30] ningu: Either that or because some chromebook uses Arm processors [07:31] ningu: Most Chromebooks (except the ARM variant) can have linux installed on them [07:31] Linus T. did so on his Chrome Pixel [07:32] the arm chromebooks can have linux too [07:32] hmm ok [07:33] it's a little limiting though, for not much more you could get a celeron or pentium laptop [07:33] or a low end amd apu [07:33] yeah, I'd rather get better hardware anyway [07:34] Plus the 2G of RAM on the ARM chromebook are somewhat limiting ;) [07:34] <_thufir_> it's an interesting business model, but sux on specs/$ [07:34] well, maybe my question would be clearer if I said that the hardware will be very similar to a netbook, but the 2012/13 version :) [07:34] i suppose it goes down to good/slightly better than average battery life and whether you want the 100gb storage from google [07:34] it has realtek sound, syntaptics or elantech touchpad [07:35] hi [07:35] hallo [07:35] probably nothing very exotic so I figure there's a good chance it will work ok [07:35] i use (rw,all_squash,anonuid=1000,anongid=1000,sync,no_subtree_check) [07:35] but i can run service becausze i have Permission denied [07:36] for fstab [07:39] where is the fr channel [07:39] !fr | thom| [07:39] thom|: 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. [07:39] how to logout somone by terminal? [07:40] <_thufir_> is aptitude better than apt-get? [07:40] !aptitude | _thufir_ [07:40] _thufir_: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. You may encounter problems on multiarch installs (11.10 and 12.04) as aptitude cannot handle the same package with different architectures being installed at the same time. See http://pad.lv/831768 for more information. [07:40] GoowW: exit [07:41] aeon-ltd: for example there is user mrX and i just type exit mrX? and it will logout him? [07:42] hrm... so, in forums on this laptop apparently some come with a broadcom wifi adapter which has questionable linux support. one guy said he replaced it with an intel centrino pcie half mini card. which I guess means that's what the stock wifi adapter is inside the laptop... is that actually plausible? [07:42] I had no idea you could replace stock wifi like that. [07:42] GoowW: i thought you meant you were in the vt [07:42] GoowW: sudo pkill -KILL -u username [07:42] GoowW: this is really not a nice way to do it [07:43] what is the "broadcast" in the /etc/network/interfaces ? [07:43] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcast_address [07:43] jony_easyrider: usually the ip with the last numbers as 255, eg: 192.168.1.255 [07:44] somsip, but what it represents? [07:44] jony_easyrider: see that link [07:44] jony_easyrider: read what ningu is giving you [07:44] ningu, ty [07:45] so I realize my question above is fairly stupid and not directly ubuntu-related, but I just sort of want a sanity check, is it actually possible that an 11.6" laptop comes with a pcie wifi card inside that I can swap out? [07:45] well anything is possible, I should say likely :) [07:46] ningu: PCIE...? [07:46] ningu: I was guess an on-board dedicated chip is more likely [07:46] s/was/would [07:46] ningu: that is going to be entirely model dependent [07:46] BoredomKills: an example, http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/centrino/centrino-advanced-n-6230-brief.html [07:46] aeon-ltd: I am aware of that. I asked basically because I've never heard of such a thing and for all I know it's become widespread and I never realized. [07:46] ningu: totally depends, radios can be optional or locale-dependent enough for them to make them a bit more modular [07:47] Dewi: oh, even for wifi networks they can be locale-dependent? I guess that's true, I never thought about it much. [07:47] ningu: if the model of laptop is popular the chances are there is going to be a working driver for wifi, if not some hacked together version with ndiswrapper is probably available [07:48] aeon-ltd: yeah, the issue is people are reporting that some models come with one wifi chip, some another and I doubt I'll know until I get it -- and one is closed source broadcom [07:48] ningu: slightly they do, yes. mobile radios even moreso, as you'd imagine [07:48] it's reasonably popular I suppose, acer aspire v5 series [07:48] somsip: thanks!!! [07:48] yeah, I know much more about variation in mobile radios (which isn't much, but still a lot more ;) [07:49] ningu: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels [07:49] ningu: I've never run into it but some people run into issues importing android phones between certain countries, etc [07:49] I've never actually been to another country and been unable to see a wifi network ssid broadcast that everyone else could [07:49] ningu: but I've done it many times with no problems [07:49] yeah, same here [07:50] where I go in indonesia the issue is typically that the wifi network isn't hooked up to anything functional, not that I can't connect to it :) [07:51] ningu: this forum post http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2027947&page=2#12 wifi relevant [07:51] ningu: I did have a laptop though where the 3G would only work in ubuntu if I booted into windows first so the driver could copy the australian ROM from the HD to the hardware [07:51] ningu: it just did that every boot apparently... [07:51] aeon-ltd: oh, thanks. that's actually another version of the post I was reading [07:51] and it implies you can swap out the wifi card which surprised me, hence my question [07:52] Dewi: haha... and where was it stored on the hd, in some windows driver? === plustwo_ is now known as plustwo_1 [07:53] ningu: yeah the driver just had like a dozen binary images with it. There was some hacky way to dump it out and put it in ubuntu, of course :) [07:54] ningu: v5-171 here with removable wifi card http://www.anandtech.com/show/6467/acer-aspire-v5171-notebook-review-the-death-and-rebirth-of-the-netbook/2 [07:54] huh [07:54] well, the one I want is v5-131 but maybe it's the same [07:57] the v5-131 is less popular cause it is lower powered but it comes in a 6-cell battery version [07:57] which for me is non-optional :) [07:58] hmm, different processor too so I dunno how similar the board would be, ah well [07:59] too bad this sort of information is completely unavailable === Guddu is now known as Guest55941 [08:12] <_thufir_> when I run startx I get a black screen with a popup "failed to load session gnome". I just installed xubunut-desktop from 13.10 server version. [08:13] _thufir_: 13.10 is not supported. [08:13] <_thufir_> lol, 13.04 I meant. [08:13] <_thufir_> (upgraded from 12.10, got mixed up) [08:14] _thufir_: Eh. Anyway, what you should do is install a display manager (e.g. lightdm or kdm or something like that) and start that as a service [08:14] <_thufir_> it's xubuntu-desktop. any specific recomendation? [08:14] install windows [08:14] your mouse might work then lol [08:16] * _thufir_ goes to try xdm [08:17] _thufir_: Eh, xdm is quite complicated, it's probably the first software of that kind. I recommend lxdm or lightdm [08:18] carrier: Suggesting to use unsupported operating systems is a bad idea and is against the IRC guidelines. Please follow the rules. [08:18] I''m ubuntu. I do not want to stable work, I want to write "founded a new update" [08:19] snql: Ubuntu has an LTS branch. Use it, it's the stablest one and you won't have to upgrade often. [08:19] theadmin: lts not better than testing branch in debian. [08:19] theadmin: a fellow human being told me that his operating system was sucking dick, and asked if there was an operating system that didn't suck dick: I told him about Window 8. You can suck my dick if that's a problem. lol [08:20] faggot [08:20] faggot [08:20] faggot [08:20] carrier: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [08:20] lol. [08:20] !ops | carrier [08:20] <_thufir_> how do I start lightdm as a service? [08:20] _thufir_: sudo start lightdm [08:20] carrier: Help! Channel emergency!

[08:21] snql: Yes, Ubuntu's based off Debian's testing branch, indeed. Who wants prehistorical software? Not me. [08:23] snql: If you're looking for Debian, you get Debian... Ubuntu's not Debian, you know. There are other distros based off of Debian Stable, but there's no reason to complain to #ubuntu about what Ubuntu is. It's not going to change anytime soon. === schmidtm__ is now known as schmidtm [08:24] theadmin: I know that. I want to have a stable system, but also friendly to the user. [08:25] snql: Ubuntu's stable enough -- I never had a single crash in... eh... since 2008, which is the first time I used Ubuntu and Linux in general. Other distros did fail, though. [08:25] Even Ubuntu LTS, unfortunately, does not behave consistently === Muzer_ is now known as Muzer [08:27] !netsplit === infogulch_ is now known as infogulch [08:27] 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 [08:30] what has happened with .gvfs? === wickede is now known as wicked [08:30] zamba: Any details? === jagger|away is now known as jagger === J0ah is now known as Joah === Liam` is now known as Liam- [08:31] theadmin: previously i could browse to a network location using nautilus and then that location would appear under .gvfs === C_S_B is now known as C-S-B [08:31] theadmin: not anymore === underscore is now known as larstov [08:32] .part === ivan\_ is now known as ivan\ [08:32] zamba: Ah, that. Nautilus used to mount networked locations locally to a folder and then browse to that folder, nowadays Nautilus accesses network locations directly [08:33] damn it [08:33] zamba: Why? What do you want to achieve? It's likely still possible to do. [08:33] but i want to access it in my file system.. i want to develop and use CLI tools on the share.. [08:34] hi. I've got python installed but my compiler can't find libpython2.7.so. I'm running ubuntu 13.04 [08:34] zamba: Samba share? Easy enough :P mount -t cifs //server/share /path/to/local/directory -o username=your_username,password=your_password === _BJFreeman is now known as BJFreeman [08:34] theadmin: no.. that's not easy enough [08:35] that's a huge leap backwards 10+ years [08:35] where is libpython2.7.so installed on ubuntu 13.04? [08:35] theadmin: found it.. under /run/user//gvfs/ [08:35] stupid [08:35] i wish ubuntu would be less glitchy [08:35] supertough: +1 [08:36] zamba: Huh -- didn't know about that. [08:36] ...wth is /run [08:36] i don't understand why ubuntu insists on taking steps backwards all the time === marienz_ is now known as marienz [08:36] this is the last nail [08:36] 13.04 doesn't work on my hard ware [08:36] zamba: Ubuntu doesn't -- GNOME team is to blame for a lot of setbacks to Ubuntu [08:36] whats *.net? [08:37] the whole fancy desktop just doesn't make a lot of sense to me. [08:37] to get a quote ", i have to type quote + space , doing just quote gives me ¨ ... how do I fix my keymapping ? [08:41] hey there, I'm trying to install some tools I need and I'm stuck at choosing the rigt location. I don't know how to specify the path to different partition? or can I only install on system partition? === Lunar_La1p is now known as Lunar_Lamp [08:46] hi all [08:46] Hello, ctx144k. [08:46] im trying ubuntu13.04 on vmware (as guest) [08:47] the grafik performance is bad... [08:47] ctx144k: 3D acceleration is currently necessary (they're working on getting support for 2D hardware done right), I'm not sure VMWare provides that [08:47] i tried to oinstall vmware-guest drivers like: http://www.liberiangeek.net/2013/03/how-to-quickly-install-vmware-tools-in-ubuntu-13-04-raring-ringtail/ [08:48] there is a little problem but u can fix it: [08:48] $ cd /lib/modules/3.8.0-19-generic/build/include/linux [08:48] $ sudo ln -s ../generated/uapi/linux/version.h . [08:48] ctx144k: Virtualbox is probably a better option, it works out of the box, you just check "Enable 3D Acceleration" in your VM properties [08:48] after restarting the grafik performance is bad again [08:49] hmpf.. dont like install virtualbox and vmware parallel on host... seems to be no good option [08:51] can anybody help me with the installation please? [08:51] ctx144k: Well, Ubuntu has no VMWare support whatsoever as far as I know, whereas the Virtualbox Guest Additions are even in the repositories [08:52] sudo tune2fs -l /dev/sdb3 getting error tune2fs: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sdb2 Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock.

[17:57] ezra-s: based on the link i posted, it seems like the installer not recognizing any drives at all is caused by having the ssd in a raid setup.. not sure where to proceed from there.

[18:12] gustav_: you are probably on VPS hosting right? the host is RHEL with openvz kernel running couple of containers (VPSes) with some linux templates installed, one if them is your ubuntu instance. [18:12] gustav_: run "cat /etc/lsb-release" or "cat /etc/redhat-release". One of those two should exist. [18:12] mchlbhm: Just install gnome3 [18:13] jzbl: Yeah but. [18:13] kboodu: True.

[18:16] Indeed. Tiled WMs are fantastic for those who want to get work done, assuming you like the paradigm. [18:16] BaldFat: they were obsolete even before Amiga workbench killed them [18:16] mchlbhm: Well tilled window managers take a little getting into but once you get things the way you like it's awesome. But I can use it on anything my wife also uses :) [18:16] Ahlee_: depends what you call "work" [18:16] BaldFat, My wife is most of the reason I'm asking lol [18:16] gordonjcp: I beg to differ and I had a Amiga :P [18:16] Ahlee_: the only people I've ever really seen with tiling WMs tend to have lots of terminals with tiny ugly dark-grey-on-dark-grey pixelly text running top [18:16] What is wrong with tile manager? [18:16] Unity is tilish. [18:17] My cousin is having problems after this update connecting to his "Clear" router via dchp.. [18:17] are there any known dhcp bugs you can link me to?

Run glxspheres. [18:19] BaldFat: I like to use the most appropriate tool for the job. Sometimes that's a CLI, sometimes that's a GUI [18:19] BaldFat, I went fullscreen but it still shows the bar lol [18:19] BaldFat: this whole "CLI is everything" attitude wears off after a while ;-) [18:20] BaldFat, I think it knows I'm new and messing with me *shake fist* [18:20] !netsplit [18:20] 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.

[18:23] BaldFat, yes [18:23] Ahlee_: I would say the ONLY real fix is to do it with Arandr [18:24] Arandr is a bandaid [18:24] mchlbhm: I am not on a unity machine right now but you can make it auto hide [18:24] use the real deal xorg.conf [18:24] BaldFat, Thank you for your time and help. [18:24] betrayd: arandr bandaid? it writes directly to X???? How is that any less [18:24] I'm unfamiliar with arandr. I will read up [18:24] what is the best way to get videos from youtube? [18:24] betrayd: like, I can not customize, etc. [18:25] he's got nvidia xorg going [18:25] Ahlee_: it makes writting to x.org conf file simple [18:25] oh pppfffft gnome? my bad, BaldFat arandr it should be [18:25] for example, I have two copies of the launcher applet right next to each other, and the only thing I can do is left click to bring up the menu [18:25] i have problem setting up rails dev env in ubuntu 12.04 [18:26] betrayd: any other suggestions than gnome? Unity is a nonstarter without compiz afaik, right? [18:26] honestly I'm open to changing things up. I just need to know where to start. [18:26] compiz, like in the cube? [18:26] I'm in no-man's-land running this many displays. It's just not something people document it seems [18:27] whatever linux's method of doing acceleration is. sorry, I don't typically use linux on desktops (for this reason specifically, actually) [18:27] are they all same sized monitors... [18:27] Yes. [18:27] betrayd: what? Gnome pppfffttt ? I just never have liked gnome anything for over 10 years. Was KDE fan boy for ever [18:28] no that first opart was at Ahlee_ [18:28] lol [18:29] andygraybeal: youtube-dl [18:29] hi [18:29] andygraybeal: or cclive [18:29] I removed the two widescreen monitors and replaced them with the same 1280x1024 screens as I already knew it'd be unnecessarily difficult getting hte 8 screens working, let alone different resolutions. [18:29] I try this about once a year for the last 4 or 5 years, and it hasn't gotten any better. [18:30] Ahlee_ I have friends that have 6 working in Linux no problem but he does it for sysadmin [18:30] Ahlee_: considering your in uncharted territory gnome was a good bet though for multihead [18:30] thank you BaldFat [18:31] BaldFat: usually i get further than this and actually have an environment I can modify, this appears to be strictly gnome issue as other than being unable to modify the taskbar/launchers it's functional [18:31] Ahlee_: 1 X server for each card? [18:32] betrayd: Each card apparently has two display cores, so there appears to be four servers running, each with twinview across its pair === bschaefer_ is now known as bschaefer [18:32] i have a weird issue with having updated nginx from the ppa, but it still using the old version. when i search it seems that there's only one nginx installed: http://pastie.org/pastes/7903658/text [18:33] maybe somebody can point me in the right direction? [18:33] Ahlee_: run this as root in command line nvidia-settings [18:34] BaldFat: aye, that is how i enabled the addtional displays [18:34] binbasti: the nginx executable comes from the nginx-full package. [18:34] Pici: ah, thanks! [18:34] Ahlee_: I really do believe when you get over 3 monitors cli is best to get this setup the way you want [18:35] BaldFat, is there a graphical version of one of these programs? [18:35] Anyone in here having problems with Unity's login screen? [18:35] BaldFat: I'm a-ok with that. Is that what arandr is going to provide? [18:36] Ahlee_: Yes arandr is a gui for setting up monitors [18:36] andygraybeal: you might as well use downloadhelper plgin/addon then or something [18:36] betrayd, thank you [18:36] BaldFat: ok. I do not have RandR extension, however [18:36] ubuntu download center is showing me two entries for installed libtheora *libtheora-dev & libtheora0* but I keep receiving errors whenever I try to ./configure packages --enable-libtheora [18:36] andygraybeal: Just copy the url after youtube-dl and your done [18:36] can anyone suggest a solution?

[18:37] andygraybeal: you can do a million other things with it, but if you just want to grab a video youtube-dl and url is the fastest [18:37] hi all :) how can i change the number / layout of workspaces in unity?

Just have an issue when I want to go to HDMI on my TV it can get flacky [18:39] betrayd: eh, i don't care about compiz. [18:39] great support room [18:39] it was more a statement that I can't have the "fancy" stuff [18:40] thank you though, betrayd. [18:40] sam113101: those are windows music files. Just download the gstreamer ugly plugins [18:40] k [18:40] lol [18:40] go for the real ugly plugins [18:41] betrayd: the "real"? [18:41] I hate music formats! I wish everything was just ogg and flac and than everyone could do whatever with their music easily [18:41] no, ignore me, BaldFats is the way to go [18:41] +1 [18:42] this plugin is installed already [18:42] I can read most of wmv files but not those [18:42] so try this mplayer what is the output on commandline? (Sorry command line is in my blood for over 30 years) [18:43] sam113101: or better get vlc [18:44] sam113101: Download restricted-extras I believe for wmv [18:45] http://pastie.org/7903725 [18:46] http://pastie.org/7903728 [18:46] (vlc doesn't work either) [18:48] sam113101: have these ever played? When vlc fails usually it is a damaged video [18:48] "VLC no soporta el formato de audio o vídeo «MSS2»." [18:49] BaldFat: they never played, but my guess is they would work on windows [18:50] whats the best way to get used to linux shell ! , i mean i know about: cd, ls, mk, and other most used commands but what should be the next step i see people can do what ever they want by scripting in shell how to reach their level !! [18:50] sam113101, "WMAPro-in-WMAVoice support not implemented." [18:51] sam113101: My guess is they won't [18:51] ali4ever4: are you serious :) [18:51] the second paste says it clearly [18:51] missed the second post [18:52] ezra-s: is it implemented in some player?

Tons of resources on the internet on tutorials on bash [18:54] ali4ever4: the most important thing first - do you *need* to write CLI scripts?

[19:19] jaqque all i can say is i just installed 13.04 last night and i can switch to other TTY's Crtl+Alt+F1 [19:19] Prock81: ttys are one thing [19:20] i am talking about Unity workspaces [19:20] jaqque, check your keyboard bindings [19:20] i see what u saying now [19:20] I find ctrl+shift+arrow is much better to move between desktops [19:21] Pici one of them is allready installed ill check hte other [19:21] ezra-s: i went through Prefereces -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts and the only thing listed with Alt-F1 and Alt-F2 is Switch to Desktop X; alt-f3 and alt-f4 work as expected [19:22] (it would be easier if Chrome didn;t decide on it's own that alt-f4 was Close Window, but that's a Google issue, not Ununtu) [19:23] Pici both are allready installed [19:23] jaqque: I think alt+f4 is an ubuntu thing [19:23] mdfe: yes, I do have cifs-utils installed [19:23] ezra-s: What libraries does nautilis use!? And how can I use them!? [19:23] jaqque, maybe you can find/tweak that through gconf [19:24] lmat_, I am no expert but I think nautilus uses fuse, in any case, it's not hard to install what you need to mount manually [19:24] ChogyDan: it *was* - but i disabled that. gnome-terminal is ignoring alt-f4, but chrome simply closes [19:24] lmat_, let me check [19:24] jaqque: how do you disable it? === ker_ is now known as this_is_a_reall_ [19:24] why did i have to try alt+f4 thinking hte wm would do something else, cause i read ur message lol === Mavrik- is now known as Mavrik [19:25] lmat_, in earlier versions you would jsut need smbfs but It has changed now.. check if you have "cifs-utils" installed [19:25] ChogyDan: System Settings... -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Windows -> Close window -> Disabled [19:25] jaqque: nm, got it, backspace [19:25] ezra-s: I do. [19:25] is there an audio player that automatically goes to the next song in a folder when a song is finished? (no I do not want to add the whole folder, neither a playlist) [19:26] how can I see which processes are using port 60020 ? [19:26] lmat_, and what do you get when you try mount -t cifs //ip/share /mymountpoint with root? (just for testing) [19:26] esperegu: mpg123 /path/to/directory/*.mp3 ? that works well for me [19:26] esperegu: ogg123 /path/to/.../*.ogg for Ogg Vorbis [19:26] jaqque: I need to just click on the file and then it needs to progress [19:26] Pici, or anyone, here is another Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "overlay-scrollbar": liboverlay-scrollbar.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [19:27] jaqque: it looks like you have to use ccsm [19:27] is there a good place to find people using retina MacBooks with ubuntu? [19:27] how can I see which processes are using port 60020 ? [19:27] jaqque: so it plays the file I select and everything newer [19:27] ezra-s: It prompts for password. [19:27] ChogyDan: i was really hoping to avoid that. my research is indicating that the law of uninitended consequences runs deep in that tool [19:27] ezra-s: I give password, then mount error(13): Permission denied [19:28] ezra-s: I went ahead and added the username and domain name and get the same result. [19:28] esperegu: newer? as in timestamp? [19:28] jaqque: well, I think the only other way should be to edit the config files yourself [19:28] jaqque: yes. but they are in order in the folder also [19:28] lmat_ the share is correct? the user have permissions for that share? [19:28] they named name-001.ogg name-002.ogg etc. [19:28] esperegu: i wonder if audacious can pretty much do that by default [19:28] lmat_, you manage to load the same exact share with the same exact user/password combination with nautilus? [19:28] ezra-s: It works via nautilus :) [19:28] can i get this: chmod a+w+x-r u+r ./drop into onliner that actually works? [19:29] ezra-s: yes :) [19:29] is it reasonable to upgrade 12.04 to 13.04 [19:29] lmat_, I don't believe you!!! :P hehehe [19:29] ezra-s: you know... it may be that I need to restart. [19:29] jaqque: I tried it but it did not continue playing when I opened a file [19:29] lmat_, no way [19:29] jaqque: and for chrome, I used to use an extension to change the shortcuts, but it only worked so so [19:29] ezra-s: I noticed that once, I logged out and logged in and I couldn't mount it using nautilis anymore! [19:29] ezra-s: Perhaps something's getting stuck... [19:30] Prock81: that means you have upgraded gtk but using a theme that was absed on a prior gtk version. these are warnings. ignore them [19:30] lmat_, you are not using samba as server, it is really a windows share right? [19:30] jaqque: (fwiw, mapping specific workspaces to certain shortcuts sounds like a cool idea, im going to try it) [19:30] ChogyDan: which is why i'd rather simply have Unity eat alt-f4; but it should do something useful. i've been using Window Maker for well over a decade, and using alt-fX to get to desktop X. hard to re-train fingers. [19:30] ezra-s: correct. [19:30] ChogyDan: and it's painful when alt-f4 closes a dozen tabs. [19:31] jaqque: you can always just reopen them, shift+ctrl+t [19:31] ChogyDan: oh - i have alt-f3 and alt-f4 switching ot desktop 3 and 4; but Unity is ingoring my request to have alt-f1 and alt-f2 do the desltop thing [19:32] ChogyDan: settings -L keyboard -> shortcuts -> navigation -> switch to workstpace X [19:32] betrayd well those errors was from a terminal tring to run vmware, vmware works but the dialog box to allow me to register it will not show, im tring to figure out why [19:33] button presses but the next window / dialog box wont show [19:33] Prock81: try to fin the theme that that vmware is using for gtk but then you'd be troubleshooting vmware and not ubuntu [19:33] would 12.04 give me hte same problem [19:33] sure you want to do this [19:34] quit with the VMs, theres liveSessions that are lesss painful [19:34] i do notice its menu bar stays on hte program window and not the window manager and not like the Mac does [19:35] someone owns htc desire c? [19:35] lmat_, is it a share in windows 8? [19:36] ezra-s: It's a server exposing the share, probably windows server 2008, but I'm not usre. [19:36] suer [19:36] eh [19:36] i have Mac Os X 10.8.3 running and working with vmware, its just on this os i cant play it cause i cant regiseter [19:36] sideeffect, This is ubuntu support state your problem for help. [19:37] just wanted ask about its booting time ^^ [19:37] sideeffect: #android might be a better place to ask, or at least closer to being on-topic there. [19:37] jaqque: fwiw, I used ccsm to disable the shortcuts. It is under Unity. It is a bit of a confusing tool [19:37] thx [19:37] so how can i make hte vmware gtk or what ever work with this ubuntu? [19:38] lmat_, I don't know how to help you further if you get the password prompt from mount -t cifs... for me aside from my own screwups that always works [19:39] ezra-s: thanks for your time :) [19:39] lmat_, I wish you good luck, youll fix it soon, you'll see [19:39] alguien que me ayude por que se ve asi ? [19:39] http://ge.tt/2Iz3tYg/v/0?c [19:40] is there a way how to detect the previous 2 or 3 startup times? [19:40] SpArTaKo, english please [19:40] !es | SpArTaKo [19:40] SpArTaKo: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y presione intro. [19:41] ChogyDan: yup. there they are. i see them in CCSM.

I have 4 GB of RAM [19:41] Sven_vB: there is a java program that maps out your startup, I forget the name [19:42] Prock81: you were able to get thre registration window in the Mac osx' === mila is now known as shojo [19:43] ChogyDan, nevermind. i've found a kernel that logs my startup time into the syslog ;) [19:43] on another distro yes [19:43] tsss banearon me a year ago one of the owners ubuntu channel in Spanish. [19:44] once vm is playing it all will be good, but before i can play i have to register, the dialog box will not show up so i can register [19:44] Prock81: that distro, try to see what gtk version it has, thats one option you have, say you want to match your buntu with that, but It might lead you to pre-12.04 [19:44] was better in Debian do not know why the hell back to Ubuntu .. are neither shared nor pure tolerant nothing Posser [19:45] im on 13.04, could 12.04 solve the problem or is gtk the same on that one [19:45] the other distro was backtrack [19:45] my sdhc card mounts if i restart ubuntu [13.04] but not just by sliding it in, anyone know a workaround?

[19:48] betrayd: could you be more specific please? [19:48] Pici which one should i use??? [19:48] the_misfit_ mine mounts by sliding it in .... and she likes it .... maybe a hardware/driver issue [19:48] juniour: it depends how you want your command to run. [19:48] Prock81: nah has to be software because it mounts on boot, no? [19:49] hello smartpeople! How can I add a script to startup? Thanks [19:49] typing.

I don't know how you have the permissions on /var/www/ setup. [19:51] Prock81: its on by default yeah [19:51] Where can open hosting free? [19:52] riddrib: what do you want to host for free?

[19:59] BAMbanda: restart router (but only if you know what your doing) [19:59] Help(ignorant): My wife's Ubuntu 10.04 suddenly won't allow printing on USB laserjet; requires "authentication" which fails. How to fix this. I reninstalled cups: no luck. [19:59] DIFH-iceroot just have the hibernate command installed on the machine ur ssh -ing into, ive done that before [19:59] Ubuntu is more than an OS. --Shuttleworth [19:59] k-stz, are u sure its that simple? [19:59] Grahame, 10.04 is end of life. [20:00] BAMbanda: your using wlan right? [20:00] Prock81: michael@bestbuntu:~$ apt-file search hibernate [20:00] michael@bestbuntu:~$ [20:00] BAMbanda: ah sorry of course you do haha [20:00] k-stz, yes [20:00] Xubuntu 12.04 is a good deal, i have been sad as well to leave 10.04 [20:00] guys any idea how to update bios? [20:01] BAMbanda: well problemsolving can be very not straightforward for wlan [20:01] wilee-nilee: Yes, but this is a Linux problem,no? I need help. The latest 12.04 ubuntu is horrible! [20:01] Grahame, eol has no support basically. [20:01] emif-: depending on the bios. have a look at your manual from your board, its not os specific [20:01] emif- you can't under linux, download hiren's boot cd and run minixp in live, then flash your bios [20:01] i belive its called something different but suppiled the hibernate command [20:01] k-stz: so first step is to power cycle the router right? [20:01] wow, long process [20:02] Prock81: i have the suspend command but that is not able to suspend when using ssh, just on the local shell [20:02] search ubuntu command line hibernate howto [20:02] yoritomo, bad advice most bos updates have an easier methid a bootable flash.

[20:05] BAMbanda: well then i wouldn't. Did you got it to work ever? [20:06] alex_fun: use the default installed brasero [20:06] OrgOfTheBogPeopl, google your setup and release, or give some description of what yiou want. [20:06] brasero? I am on win [20:06] yoritomo, hirens contains an illegal xp session, please advise ubcd or like [20:06] I burned it once it wont boot [20:06] Prock81: for k3b you have to install a lot of kde libs, so brasero is fine (but i like k3b more) [20:06] BAMbanda: Thanks, will co. --G [20:06] weird [20:06] alex_fun: when you are on windows, ask in ##windows how to burn an iso [20:06] k-stz, when i first installed ubuntu, but recently ive been have problems. it works fine on my windows partition, but not on my ubuntu partition [20:06] ok ok [20:06] :D [20:07] hirens is not even allowed on the ##windows channel. [20:07] k-stz, someone mentioned that my router might be confused because i have the same mac address and recommended that i use static, but i couldnt get that to work either :( [20:07] !enter > alex_fun [20:07] alex_fun, please see my private message [20:08] ubottu is a bot [20:08] Yes, I can confirm that I am a bot. http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Bots for all information.

[20:09] Pici ./backupsite.sh works when i start with shell [20:09] BAMbanda: ok, so you've been tinkering with the router settings? [20:09] if most people like to use shorter sentences whats the point to try to make them write longer ones? [20:09] OrgOfTheBogPeopl, The channel not me is your help. [20:09] I can for example disable sounds in irc client this way short ot long does not matter :D [20:10] k-stz, yea and i tried adding my ubuntu as a static ip but it didnt get internet. idk whats up with it. its so frustrating because i really like linux [20:10] juniour: is the file executable? is there a shebang set in the script? i bet cron is executing your command but your script is wrong/not execuatble [20:10] juniour: see /var/log/syslog [20:10] alex_fun : on windoZe i've used CDBurnerXP ... it's easy to use with some good features [20:11] Tex_Nick that is what I used, and it would not boot [20:11] alex_fun, If you want people to follow you, you have to consolidate the info no matter your default way of communicating, the world revolves around all of us not you. === tomaw is now known as 5EXAAGVG5 [20:12] in that case, does anyone know what package controls touchpad input or a good way of searching all the packages?

[20:38] SIFTU see here http://pastebin.com/u1jDzA6c and help [20:38] nano is good [20:39] alex_fun nano is good but vim is better [20:39] ali4ever4: Ah, you'll need the "mono-mcs" package for command-line compilation of C# stuff, and a text editor of course [20:39] keldwud: well i hear more about vi and vim from everyone so i guess its better (dont want to start a fan war here) thats why i didn't dare to ask which is better [20:39] juniour: what permissions does backupsite.sh have on it. [20:39] juniour: your script has a #! at the top, it is marked executable? [20:40] tring to learn vim is like tring to learn Russian .... oh wait Russian is a bit easier ... no joke [20:40] theadmin: thanks a lot [20:40] hello, does an up-to-date ubuntu contain java's latest version? [20:40] johnjohn101 i gave chmod u+x [20:40] Prock81: vim requires about 2-3 hrs a day practice...then it becomes second nature. [20:40] ali4ever4: it usually boils down to those two depending on your preferences, but both are so diverse that once you have invested time into learning one, you generally don't want to spend more time learning the other [20:40] Prock81: !!!! -_- thanks for the support [20:40] uvala: 7u21-2.3.9-1ubuntu1 is the version of openjdk-7-jre.

[20:41] johnjohn101 i tried with root account not working [20:42] Prock81: Russian is not easier. I'd know -- I'm from Russia and I'm having problems with the language... I'm not having problems with Vim though. [20:42] johnjohn101 i tired with both root and normal user not working [20:42] keldwud: exactly i have tried vi and tried emacs port on windows both looked to have very difficult learning curve which means i need to decide what i want to learn before being able to know exactly what the different between them [20:42] keldwud: anyway i choosed to go with vi, vim thing [20:42] theadmin, I see now that openjdk-7-jre is not installed yet. since the web-ftp of my backend needs this, could that be the reason firefox looks for missing plugins never to find them [20:42] lol im learning Russian , Spoken only [20:42] ? [20:42] juniour: so your script runs from the shell? [20:43] uvala: I guess, for the web plugin you need "icedtea-7-plugin" (of Java 7) or icedtea-6-plugin of Java 6 === NK`_ is now known as NK` [20:43] Prock81: russian is easier than vim , i am already concern on how much time it will take me to get used deal with its commands and shortcuts [20:43] SIFTUyep i tried it works perfect as shell ./backupsite.sh === h4ckm3 is now known as jaake [20:43] SIFTU yep i tried it works perfect as shell ./backupsite.sh [20:43] ali4ever4: If you want a simple command-line editor, mcedit and nano are at your disposal (mcedit is part of the Midnight Commander, package "mc") === xnavor_ is now known as xnavor [20:44] juniour: so your cron says it's going to execute at 1:35am everyday, if you script produces output you will want to redirect it too.. how do you know it' failing?

[20:47] juniour: sorry I mean "is the cron running as your user.. or root?" [20:47] airhead [20:47] ubuntu is better or debian ?

[20:54] juniour: Your file is not executable for other.

[21:41] fluffyone: which is the data which I gave you. Couldnt you form your ownbsearch terms from that...? [21:41] jdale: then run: sudo apt-get --reinstall install nvidia-current [21:41] jdale: you dont need to keep asking. have some patience (2nd time) [21:41] sorry sorry [21:42] jdale: rebot the pc, it should load the driver [21:43] i was just reading back, there is a 173-updates, ActionParsnip > https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/raring/+package/nvidia-173-updates [21:43] compatible with current xorg 1.13 [21:44] jdale: if the screen doesn't load you may need: sudo nvidia-xconfig [21:44] oerheks: cheers :-) [21:45] I think I got it [21:45] thanks AcidRain [21:45] ActionParsnip, [21:45] wroks fine [21:45] :D [21:45] jay_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.

[21:46] hello folks...how do i use gnome instead of unity in 13.04 [21:46] killall nautilus [21:46] unity is crashing on me hard [21:46] jdale: the default is nouveau, you need to manually install the proprietary [21:47] ah [21:47] so the comamnd works like that? [21:47] sifu_: unity doesnt replace gnone [21:47] ActionParsnip, no um, I went to a page that had too much advanced linux-talk on it. I needed the commands to install this java [21:47] sifu_, you could install gnome-session-fallback [21:48] fluffyone: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html [21:48] erm sorry i am bit unfamiliar with it...i do know how to install cinamon wrapper but not sure about anything else...

[21:48] fluffyone: three terminal commands [21:48] ActionParsnip, ah I got it installed now, but I think I have to log out and back on to see if webcamstudio works yet [21:48] sifu_: there is a ppa for cinammon but its not supported here [21:48] fluffyone: why log out? [21:49] ActionParsnip, because it isn't working yet [21:49] and it still has the no such file or directory error [21:49] fluffyone: you may need to symlink java to where the studio expects it, or edit the config of the app to look for java elsewhere [21:49] ActionParsnip, yeh i got that working [21:50] ActionParsnip, I have no idea what that means [21:50] wait [21:50] I foudn my error but Im not sure how these people fix it [21:50] sifu_: i suggest you ask in the mint channel for cinamon support [21:51] ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/Upn7C2N1 [21:51] sifu_: alternatively you can install xfce4 and use XFCE which is GTK based and fully supported here [21:52] You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. [21:52] ActionParsnip, hm what does this mean? it says this when I open Nvidia-config panel [21:52] to run a service like bitlbee for example on ubuntu coudl i use upstart or do i need to install xinetd [21:53] hm so ActionParsnip any reasons on what to do? [21:53] fluffyone: what is the output of: echo $JAVA_DIR [21:53] jdale: is the screen res ok?

[22:28] uvala: install 64bit if your CPU is 64 bit [22:29] 64bit is 64bit. Whats to ponder? [22:29] lacy: never had a problem myself [22:29] SIFTU, thank you. it is an 64 bit machine. to be sure, could you please help me know the command to show CPU info? [22:29] uvala: you can do "cat /proc/cpuinfo" [22:29] evilytwisted, what game is that?

[22:35] !enter | jdale [22:35] jdale: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line. Don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [22:36] jdale: stop flooding the channel. [22:36] SIFTU, how do you do that [22:36] fluffyone: in that link I provided [22:37] SIFTU, I still don't follow what you mean [22:38] For untrusted machines on my network, I want all internet traffice to be blocked but have the ability to whitelist by IP and by DNS name -- what tools would I use to acomplish this? [22:38] This is on a gateway machine running Ubuntu 12 LTS [22:39] Anyways, I've been trying to fix this issue. Would someone help me make conky be able to auto start? [22:39] fluffyone: sudo update-alternatives --config java [22:39] http://imgur.com/wGuCpN5.

[22:39] SIFTU, what number do i pick or shall I pastebin it? [22:40] fluffyone: the java you just installed [22:40] How do I do that Dr_willis ? [22:40] I got it installed but how do I get it to autostart? [22:40] yeah I don't know what one I just got Im uber confused right now [22:40] fluffyone: something about java 7 [22:40] Add this line to the autostart file: <<<< . I'm not sure what that means [22:40] jdale, you are wasting time asking instead of trying. Conky is real simple, and you have the document with detailed instructions. [22:41] hello world [22:41] yo [22:41] jdale, the conky faq mentions making a script in your /home/YOURUSERNAME/.config/autostart directory [22:41] AsSlowAsHell: norton offers free dns web filtering. But opendns is free and you have many options [22:41] scar_eyeball, OpenDNS is not something you run on your local network, correct? It is a remote service [22:41] so I should get java-7-openjdk/jre/bin/java? or java-7-oracle/jre/bin/java [22:41] jdale, it will have like 3 lines in it... #!/bin/bash sleep 30 conky & [22:41] AsSlowAsHell, don't ever use Norton for anything [22:41] As [22:42] h: cannot touch ‘/home/jay/.config/lxsessions/Lubuntu/autostart’: No such file or directory [22:42] . I get this mesage darthanubis [22:42] darthanubis, yeah I steer far clear of Norton and Symmantec [22:42] good [22:42] jdale: I always used the openbox autostart file [22:42] hm [22:42] SIFTU, so I should get java-7-openjdk/jre/bin/java? or java-7-oracle/jre/bin/java [22:42] SIFTU, care if I message you? [22:42] fluffyone: try the open one [22:42] i need tool hacking for ubuntu help me please (sorry i have a bad english ^^) [22:42] You can help me walk through it? [22:42] jdale: permission granted, thanks for asking [22:42] jdale, i just use ~/.config/autostart/startconky.sh [22:43] AsSlowAsHell: you can set it up per machine or the router to filter anything connected even wifi [22:43] SIFTU, http://pastebin.com/YkyJbS4H this is what I get [22:44] AsSlowAsHell: most routers will allow you to set DNS and all operating systems allow you set DNS. [22:44] I swear Im gonna give up here in a second [22:45] scar_eyeball, yes but from what I understand the setup involves pointing your router or the machine's DNS server to their DNS server correct? [22:45] scar_eyeball, I want some kind of dnsmasq type thing that runs locally on my network and I can do the blocking from there [22:45] Hmm.. looks like lubuntu dont take autostart any more.. I thought it used to.. odd. [22:45] fluffyone: ok good, does it work now?? [22:45] fluffyone, take a break. Frustration will not help you or us. [22:46] AsSlowAsHell: yes you have to point to their DNS. So it requires no software. Independant of operating system === nyquist is now known as nyquist__ [22:47] AsSlowAsHell: norton offers it to for free but only has three settings. Not very configuable. [22:47] nope doesn't work === jen is now known as fluffone [22:47] i just installed ubuntu-server 13.04 x64 in virtualbox, how do i access it through ssh? [22:48] !ssh [22:48] SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) [22:48] WeThePeople, #ubuntu-server [22:49] WeThePeople, you need to also figure out how to make your VBox instead share your Lan [22:49] AsSlowAsHell: well i just use it as parental control. Works greAt [22:50] thanks darthanubis [22:50] thats called a bridge [22:50] no doubt [22:50] glad you know that [22:50] ;) [22:50] now your done [22:51] lol [22:52] <[deXter]> !lts [22:52] LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server; with the exception of 12.04 (Precise Pangolin), which will be supported for 5 years on the desktop. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Precise (Precise Pangolin 12.04) [22:53] scar_eyeball, yeah that won't block access from things connecting by IP and it's reliant on an external resource. I'd prefer something that runs on my router that sits between my ISP's DNS and my local area network DNS requests -- something like dnsmasq hmmm [22:53] AsSlowAsHell, zentyal [22:53] <[deXter]> Can someone please clarify the current LTS situation? When they say 12.04 is the exception.. does it mean *every* LTS release from here on is supported for 5 years? Or is 12.04 the only exception, like ever? [22:53] darthanubis, oo that looks interseting [22:53] ;) [22:54] you can install in right from the repos [22:54] !zentyal [22:54] zentyal is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Zentyal (Project formally known as eBox - including in Lucid/10.04). [22:54] darthanubis, awesome! thanks will play with that [22:54] cheers! [22:54] [deXter]: from 12.04 (including 12.04) on they get 5years support for desktop and server [22:55] <[deXter]> k1l, Ah, thanks. Someone should re-word !lts in ubottu then, it's misleading. :) [22:55] AsSlowAsHell: sounds like you want a firewall. I heard of smoothwall. But think that may require you run a machine as a server. === airtonix_ is now known as airtonix [22:57] is this a correct command lol sudo patch `which webcamstudio` home/diff_webcamstudio_uname.patch or does home need a $ in front of it? [22:57] [deXter]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_(operating_system)#History_and_development_process :) [22:58] AsSlowAsHell: think smoothea [22:58] I have mounted a filesystem with sshfs, but there is a specific directory I cannot ls now for some reason. I can still see files in the directory and change them but ls just says permission denied. I have no idea what is causing it. [22:58] fluffone, normally you patch the SOURCE code, then recompile. not the binary [22:58] fluffone, so i would say thats wrong. [22:59] Dr_willis, yeh I don't know what im doing :) [22:59] fluffone, last i looked at webcam studio - it hadent been in development for a long time.. whats the last time it was updated? [22:59] AsSlowAsHell: think smoothwall has operating system you run on your server [23:00] Dr_willis, no idea, i just update to 12.04 from 11.10 or something and now it won't run [23:00] fluffone, webcamstudio uses java.. so it may not like your java vesion [23:00] who was I talking to? [23:01] <[deXter]> lasers, Thanks, but still, someone has to update ubottu :) [23:02] Greetings, I have decided to try a btrfs install, and beforehand created images of my old root and home partitions. What is the best way to restore my old system and files onto my new btrfs install? [23:02] jdale, heres a working ~/.config/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart file [23:02] http://paste.ubuntu.com/5662780/ [23:03] Should I just do a straight copy using a live disk and preserve permissions? Do I only need to preserve the new fstab and crypttab? [23:03] To share a file system from one Liunx host to another, what file has to be configured on the host that is sharing the file system? [23:03] EGamerHDK, share using what method? samba? nfs? [23:04] I believe NFS? [23:04] !nfs [23:04] nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. [23:04] nfs use /etc/exports i think [23:05] EGamerHDK, I just did it and use autofs to mount the shares [23:05] !autofs [23:05] Automount is the modern way to mount directories over a network. It is much easier to manage and more economic in bandwidth than static mounts via fstab. For more info - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Autofs [23:06] Interesting. Do you guys mind if I pick your brains over a few questions. Some are from my homework, but this class is moving really fast, so I'm having a hard time. [23:06] EGamerHDK, fine line there btw homework and help, but shoot [23:07] EGamerHDK: might be better to use #ubuntu-offtopic if its Not ubuntu related [23:07] My high school CS professor asks us tricky questions... like "A DNS server can also be a DNS client." Which, I believe is false, but if you try hardenough it may be possible [23:07] where do I see whether my CPU is 64 bit? [23:07] Okay Dr_Willis_ [23:07] yeah, what Doc said. You should not have mentioned homework pal [23:07] Honesty is the best policy [23:07] =p [23:07] uvala: lscpu, maybe. [23:07] uvala, on the box your pc came in [23:07] connor__: brtfs hope it goes good. Was about to try it once but setup was more than ext3 [23:07] lscpu [23:08] yo! lasers, thank you very much! [23:08] my desktop pc - Is working as a dns server. (to the rest of the lan) and as a dns client.. ( getting dns info from the google dns servers) [23:08] you might need sudo to run lscpu properly [23:08] uvala: word! [23:08] What is this Amazon garbage on my Ubuntu taskbar after a fresh install of desktop? [23:08] !noads | Vinnie_win [23:08] darthanubis, thanks, that is not available :) [23:09] !adlens [23:09] If you wish not to see "More Suggestions" from places like Amazon in your Ubuntu 12.10, simply remove the package unity-lens-shopping, or adjust your Privacy settings as shown here: http://goo.gl/kFO4u . Mark Shuttleworth's blog entry on this is at http://goo.gl/uF7zZ [23:09] uvala, no need for sudo for lscpu [23:09] uvala, try lsusb, and lspci [23:09] no, lscpu worked [23:09] it showed [23:09] ls =list [23:09] I mean, the box of the pc is not thre [23:09] there* [23:10] all fine, I got the info [23:10] getting the "System program problem detected" dialog (apport), how do I view the actual problem detected? [23:12] user “root” run the ping command and got the following:[root@linux]# ping xyzconnect: Network is unreachableWhat is the most likely reason for the above error message? [23:12] Dr_Willis_: google dns is supposed to speed up thinv [23:12] Dr_Willis_: google dns is supposed to speed up things [23:12] EGamerHDK, many reasons [23:13] okay how do I install java sun and replace the java I have now? [23:13] darthanubis: A. The system cannot resolve the host name "xyz" B. There are no routes to the host "xyz" C. DNS is n ot configured correctly on the local Linux system D. NFS is not configured correctly for host "xyz" [23:13] !java [23:13] To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. [23:14] How do I remove a package? [23:14] Vinnie_win: apt-get remove ... [23:14] oh...so, the command line then. There's no GUI? [23:15] !manual | Vinnie_win [23:15] Vinnie_win: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ [23:15] Vinnie_win: probably in the software center, just dont use it [23:15] theres a rather large icon on the left hand side that says 'software center' [23:15] A manual! That will help thanks [23:16] alrighty does anyone know of any alternatives to use INSTEAD OF webcamstudio for livestreaming on ubuntu 12.04?????? [23:16] Vinnie_win, you said the cmd line because how could you miss the GUI? [23:16] he not you [23:16] darthanubis: I tried a search and entered "package" but nothing matched [23:17] Vinnie_win, and yes, documentation is written so redundant questions are easily referred to for answers [23:17] Vinnie_win, you need to be way more specific. You searched what were? What package did you install? Installed it from where? [23:18] etc [23:18] hey, I'm runing ubuntu 11.10 and I'm wondering if the vlc versions showing on this page will work if install it http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-ubuntu.html please advise [23:18] LFS, it should say right there on the page [23:18] LFS: install from pkg manager [23:18] otherwise I'll have to downloand and compile the source [23:18] do you mean apt-get install? [23:18] darthanubis: not a he [23:18] LFS, you will never have to install vlc from source, ever. [23:18] is not doing any good [23:19] LFS: yes [23:19] glassresistor, COOL [23:19] older versions of vlc should be in the repos for 11.10 [23:19] !11.10 [23:19] Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot) was the fifteenth release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/11.10/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1110 [23:19] I've been strugling compiling ffmpeg and libav all day without results [23:19] I see that link points to apt://vlc [23:19] LFS, why? [23:19] older ubuntu releases may not support the apt:// type urls [23:20] if I do a ubuntu minimal install, am I free from amazon adware and spyware? [23:20] sudo apt-get install vlc [23:20] done [23:20] Anonynous: its not spywre or adware.. and youi can easially uninstall the adlens/disable it if you want [23:20] because the original shipped libav is outdated and I was advised to remove ffmpeg and resintall the whole thing from scratch [23:20] What command would I use if I want to see all directories and files, including hidden files of your home directory /root in long listing format? [23:20] and I needed mss2 codecs support very badly [23:20] and if you do a minimal install and install the ubuntu-desktop package. it will be the same as a normal ubuntu install. [23:21] LFS, that is what medibuntu is for [23:21] EGamerHDK: This question... You can find out yourself. Honestly. [23:21] Anonynous: this will be installed if you install the packages that contain the adlens(s). Which is probably a part of Unity [23:21] LFS: and why are you not just using a newer version of ubuntu? [23:21] lasers: ls -l /root? [23:21] I just released the vlc is 2.0.4 and newer supports that and I didn't have to do anything with ffmpeg & libav [23:22] Anonynous, I removed amazon, and adlens the moment the system cme up [23:22] Dr_Willis_: my internet account has a limited qouta [23:22] turn remembering stuff off in the privacy settings [23:22] I can't afford downloading dvds [23:22] Ubuntu is still linux [23:23] scar_eyeball: Thanks, I think I am just going to use "cp -p -r -u -x -v /old /new" but now I am unclear whether I can restore /usr or not [23:24] scar_eyeball: Also now that this btrfs setup is working I am thinking of also trying ZFS on linux [23:24] Hi, How can I upgrade kvm to 1.4 in ubuntu-12.04 lts? [23:24] Anonynous: its not spywre or adware.. lel, what is it then [23:25] read the dozens of articals about the adlens Anonynous .. and the official ubuntu blog postings on it.. if you want to discuss it.. ask in #ubuntu-offtopic its not really a support issue [23:26] !adlens [23:26] If you wish not to see "More Suggestions" from places like Amazon in your Ubuntu 12.10, simply remove the package unity-lens-shopping, or adjust your Privacy settings as shown here: http://goo.gl/kFO4u . Mark Shuttleworth's blog entry on this is at http://goo.gl/uF7zZ [23:28] no reply means going ahead to compile the source [23:28] cheers [23:28] uh, i need a little help... I'm trying to setup nfs, and the instructions tell me "ensure that NEED_IDMAPD is set to YES in /etc/conf.d/nfs-common.conf". There are a bunch of other NEED_ lines, but I don't see NEED_IDMAPD at all. wat do? [23:28] good luck with that.. ;) [23:28] how do I install java sun???? [23:28] fluffone: its oracle java these days.. sun sold out to oracle [23:28] Do I add the environment variable? Is it deprecated in 13.04? [23:28] Kamilion: add the whole line to the file perhaps? [23:29] Dr_Willis_: but why was it removed in 13.04 [23:29] Kamilion: no idea. i dont use NFS. [23:29] Dr_Willis_: the instructions say I should turn it on for 11.10 and before [23:30] could be the guide is old. and that option is not needed these days.. [23:31] that was my understanding. But the functionality it provides (mapping uid between server/client) does not seem to be functional. Everything shows up as owned by 'nobody.nogroup'. === mfisch` is now known as mfisch === mfisch is now known as Guest61231 [23:34] agh; figured it out [23:34] grrrr [23:36] hi [23:36] Yo [23:37] silver [23:37] gold [23:38] someone can share how to download anything from armitage hucking xp ?? ty [23:38] okay I just want to share my deskktop with livestream how can I do that now on ubuntu? [23:38] fluffone: justin.tv [23:38] you can share you screen [23:38] fluffone: TeamViewer [23:38] record my desktop [23:38] is cool [23:38] skype even.. [23:38] I need it live though [23:38] like livestream [23:39] You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. [23:39] oh cool [23:39] but livestream sucks because linux isn't supported [23:39] I have this error message and how can i fix it? [23:39] jdale: you did install the nvidia drivers? [23:39] yeah I did Dr_Willis_ [23:39] everything is big again [23:39] sup [23:39] I need a procaster [23:39] I did the reisntallation command Actionparsnip gave me [23:39] what do I do? [23:40] jdale: you did reboot after reinstalling them? [23:40] oh well no [23:40] er well yes [23:40] I regret thinking linux was a good artwork operating system e-e [23:40] sorry I meant to say yes I did [23:40] and they changed [23:40] but now its big again [23:40] and what's up? [23:40] jdale: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:40] fluffone, don't cry about it here [23:40] lol [23:41] 'artwork operating system' ? what a weird term [23:41] just because it does not work for you. But Ubuntu is NOT Linux [23:41] what do I do Dr_Willis_ [23:42] jdale: i rarely have nvidia issues. I just install the nvidia-current package, reboot. and run the nvidia-settings tool. sounds like your system is not likeing your drivers, or not using them - if nvidia-settings is cimplaining [23:42] darthanubis: Ubuntu isn't Linux? What, it's FreeBSD now? [23:42] can I pm you Dr_Willis_ ? [23:42] get some help [23:43] SonikkuAmerica, really, you did not understand my statement? [23:43] jdale: i rarely have to fight with the nvidia drivers.. so dont really have a lot of suggestions.. what drivers did you use? the ones from the repos? or the ones from nvidia.com? [23:43] darthanubis: Linux is not Ubuntu, but Ubuntu is Linux-based!! [23:43] repos [23:43] * darthanubis I did not know I needed to spell that out [23:44] SonikkuAmerica, if Linux is not Ubuntu, then it follows that Ubuntu is not Linux [23:44] The firewalls on linux host1 and host2 are disabled. From host1, user root runs the "ping host2" command. The command does not have any return packets coming back from host2. [23:44] Which command can be used to trouble shoot this issue? [23:44] EGamerHDK: you do have a proper ip on both machines? [23:45] EGamerHDK, you need to fix your network issue first [23:46] Having a lot of trouble since recent updates of 13.04 connecting to Wifi. is this a common problem/ [23:46] can any one tell me whay portmapper not starting in my kali [23:46] linux [23:46] th0r: Your flaw is as follows: If Linux is Ubuntu, then it can't be anything else, or else openSUSE, RHEL, Fedora, DSL, SLiTaZ and all the other Linux-based distros are Ubuntu (which they're not) [23:46] !backtrack | anouar1 [23:46] anouar1: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mint), kali-linux (#kali-linux), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) [23:47] yes [23:47] anouar1: So join #kali-linux [23:47] sory [23:48] Hello all. How do I debug a laggy SSH connection with my VPS? Ping times to and from are fine, as is a quick dd IOPS test to dev/null [23:49] I have sound working. Sound works at login screen and continues to work. I am unable to use pavucontrol, as it won't connect to pulseaudio. Any suggestions as to why I cannot connect locally? [23:49] pulseproblems: Are you using Unity? [23:49] joebobjoe, get with your vps or isp provider(s) [23:49] SonikkuAmerica: 12.04 w. gnome-classic [23:50] I have not had to adjust pulse in maybe at least 3-4 releases of Ubuntu. Sound just works now. [23:50] maybe I'm lucky [23:52] SonikkuAmerica2: 12.04 w. gnome-classic === SonikkuAmerica2 is now known as SonikkuAmerica [23:52] yofun@yofun:~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mercurial-ppa/releases sudo: add-apt-repository: command not found? [23:52] SonikkuAmerica: 12.04 w. gnome-classic [23:52] its a fresh installed vps [23:53] !find add-apt-repository [23:53] i did apt-get update and apt-get upgrade [23:53] File add-apt-repository found in software-properties-common [23:53] yofun: You need python-software-properties, first [23:53] pulseproblems: OK, OK! [23:53] which add-apt-repository [23:53] /usr/bin/add-apt-repository [23:54] soo what do i do? [23:54] python-software-properties contains add-apt-repository and is *not* installed by default any longer [23:54] pulseproblems: Applications > System Tools > Prefs > Sound should be a front-end for pavucontrol unless your sound is ALSA. [23:54] sudo apt-get install python-software-properties yofun [23:55] SonikkuAmerica: If I bring up 'Sound', I get no hardware listed. It only lists if pavucontrol can actually connect, which it has in the past [23:55] How do I search the permissions of files? [23:55] SonikkuAmerica: I've tried deleting ~/.pulse/ [23:55] EGamerHDK: [ ls -la ] in the directory you're in [23:55] EGamerHDK: You could do: ls -la /path/to/files [23:55] command still not found pulseproblems [23:56] ctrl alt + arrow no longer switch workspaces [23:56] pulseproblems: Try purging and reinstalling pulseaudio [23:56] >< [23:56] jakemp: 13.04? [23:56] yes SonikkuAmerica [23:56] yofun: apt-get install software-properties-common [23:56] jakemp: You have to enable workspaces in gnome-control-center [23:56] SonikkuAmerica: I've tried install --reinstall, but if I try to remove --purge pulseaudio, it tries to remove ubuntu-desktop package [23:56] I didn't like 13.04, installed 12.04 instead. [23:57] pulseproblems: That won't do anything drastic, ubuntu-desktop is just a metapackage [23:57] pulseproblems: Besides, if you care about it, just reinstall ubuntu-desktop after purging pulseaudio [23:57] SonikkuAmerica: It was the difference in removing pulseaudio and pulseaudio-* :P [23:57] SIFTU, ? [23:57] SonikkuAmerica: and pulseproblems so if I was in my home directory and typed: [23:57] umask 044 [23:57] mkdir dir [23:57] cd dir [23:57] touch filename [23:57] What permission would filename have? [23:57] EGamerHDK: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:58] EGamerHDK: why not do the commands and look and see? [23:58] lol [23:58] ty SonikkuAmerica [23:58] 777-044 would be my guess [23:58] jakemp: (System Settings > Appearance > Behavior tab) [23:58] Dr_Willis_: I did, but no ls-l gives me letters not numbers [23:58] EGamerHDK: learn to convert? [23:58] !permissions [23:58] An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions [23:58] SonikkuAmerica: Thanks for your help. Will report back after rebooting :D [23:59] hey Dr_Willis_ I got this [23:59] EGamerHDK: Read the !permissions blurb [23:59] Well can anyone just quickly tell me if -rw--w--w- means 044?
