| dr_willis | old grub iss very annoying in many ways.. grub2 is just annoying in differnt ways | 00:04 |
| dr_willis | but grub2 can do some amazeing things once you learn it | 00:04 |

| dr_willis | kvothetech: grub2 can boot iso files.. i use that feature all the time.. its also smarter about what it can boot and with a lot of the newer raid/efi/other new things.. its needed | 00:05 |
| dr_willis | theres amany more reasons the grub devs basicvally moved to grub2 ... a | 00:05 |
| dr_willis | the way menu.lst was formated.. was also very.. weird in many ways | 00:06 |
| lahwran | if I understand correctly, 10.04 desktop lost support last month. are the repos still fully online, though? | 00:06 |

| Riley_88 | anonymou1 i believe freebsd supports dd | 00:16 |
| Birdo | btw I'm on Xubuntu 13.04 | 00:16 |
| Riley_88 | so u could probably just dd the iso to the flash drive | 00:16 |

| kvothetech | usr13: nsahoo any luck | 00:18 |
| Riley_88 | i should be able to just delete the section | 00:18 |
| Riley_88 | right | 00:18 |
| kvothetech | Riley_88: yes but like i said i don't use grub2 so no idea...i think you have to run update grub too | 00:18 |
| kvothetech | Riley_88: bit like lilo but....again could be wrong | 00:19 |
| mdfe | Riley_88, if you sudo update-grub it should scan for the kernel images and build the boot list | 00:19 |
| Riley_88 | i tried that | 00:20 |
| mdfe | probably one the kernel images is broken if it's not being added correctly | 00:20 |

| dr_willis | how are you examing the iso file? | 00:30 |
| dr_willis | sounds like ultraiso is looking at it incorectly perhaps.. | 00:30 |
| newbuntu | with ultaISO | 00:30 |
| dr_willis | check the md5sum of the iso file. test it in virtualbox perhaps to verify its good | 00:31 |

| baordog | Hey, I'm having a crash where Ubuntu loads weird random pixels | 00:34 |
| baordog | I get as far as the login screen | 00:34 |
| baordog | and it tries load, and produces the random pixels | 00:34 |
| baordog | It's on an old Janky computer | 00:34 |
| baordog | any ideas? | 00:34 |
| TheLordOfTime | A netsplit happens 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 | 00:34 |

| dr_willis | newbuntu: for hdmi sound in 13.04 i had to use the .9 kernel from a ppa.. i got the info from askubuntu.com | 00:35 |
| === xcourier_ is now known as xcourier | ||
| newbuntu | so that is a known issue then not just me? lol | 00:36 |
| dr_willis | newbuntu: its a well known issue with HDMI audio. a fix is supposed to be getting released.. i just got sick of waiting and used the maintreak kernel from kernel.ubuntu.org i think | 00:36 |
| dr_willis | mainstream | 00:36 |
| newbuntu | thats great tyvm i might just try 13.04 again | 00:37 |
| newbuntu | seemed faster than 12.04 | 00:37 |
| baordog | Anyone have an idea about my random pixels? I'm sure someone has seen something like this before | 00:37 |
| dr_willis | all i did to 'fix' it was dosnload 4 .deb files from that kernel site and dpkg -i * them.. ;) but im not sure how that will affect updates.. so thats why i dont knwo if an official update has came out yet or not | 00:37 |
| dr_willis | baordog: what is your video chipset? that will be the #1 thing to determine | 00:38 |
| baordog | I can't tell. Computers old. Like I said, it used to work. | 00:38 |
| dr_willis | lapci will tell you | 00:38 |
| dr_willis | 'lspci' | 00:38 |
| baordog | That would be great if the operating system would load | 00:38 |

| baordog | ok | 00:39 |
| dr_willis | or boot any old live cd that worked.. and use the command | 00:40 |
| baordog | but why would my chipset matter? It's worked for months | 00:40 |
| dr_willis | if one of those does work.. see what modules the thing is using and what video driver | 00:40 |
| baordog | Because the login screen does load | 00:40 |
| baordog | I can feel it trying | 00:40 |
| dr_willis | for all we know - it could be a dieing video card or cable... you will have to do some tests to see | 00:40 |
| === erik is now known as Guest77884 | ||
| dr_willis | if you get it to the console. install the ssh server. so you can ssh in to it while its running and look and try things | 00:41 |
| baordog | Well that would suck. The thing has integrated graphics | 00:41 |
| baordog | That much I remember | 00:41 |
| dr_willis | you coudl also try any older kenels listed in the grub menu and see if any of the old ones work.. if an old kernel does work. but a newer one does not.. that would point to a driver issue | 00:43 |
| baordog | ok I'm in the recovery menu | 00:44 |
| baordog | where do I switch on text mode? | 00:44 |
| baordog | root? | 00:44 |
| dr_willis | recovery should have some item to get to a shell. i dont have its menus menoruised | 00:44 |
| dr_willis | i tend to just use text mode. ;) | 00:45 |
| baordog | nvidia corporation c61 [Geforce 614OSE nforce 430] | 00:46 |
| baordog | That appears to be the video card | 00:46 |
| dr_willis | you may want to try the 'nomodeset' option when booting if the gfx is currupted.. or if you feel lucky jusst try instlling the 'nvidia-current' drivers | 00:47 |
| dr_willis | safest would be to try 'nomodeset' then the addational-drivers tool | 00:47 |
| baordog | what's that? | 00:47 |
| dr_willis | unless you have installed the drivers in the past from nvidia.com using their .run drivers.. | 00:48 |
| newbuntu | ty "dr_willis" virtualbox boots the ISO so must have been the way ultraiso was displaying it. thanks again! | 00:48 |
| dr_willis | look for 'nomodeset' on the ubuntu wiki page /askubuntu.com it will show how to tell grub to use the nomodeset option | 00:48 |
| baordog | is there a command to get back to grub? | 00:48 |
| dr_willis | at the grub mennnu - you hit 'e' to edit the boot item and change the text to read 'quiet splash nomodeset' then boot the entry | 00:49 |
| dr_willis | newbuntu: im not even sure why you were looking at it with ultraiso ;) | 00:49 |
| baordog | right | 00:50 |
| baordog | but now I'm in the root terminal thing. How do I get back? | 00:50 |
| dr_willis | you mean how to you 'reboot' ? | 00:50 |
| dr_willis | the reboot command.. reboots the pc.. | 00:50 |
| dr_willis | or try exit to get back to the recovery menu | 00:51 |
| baordog | that did it | 00:51 |

| FogHornLegHorn | me? i know im asking him if the option is in a gtk menu | 01:15 |
| FogHornLegHorn | or terminal thing | 01:15 |

| James_Epp | So I am trying to make a pxe server for starting ubuntu installs (just a personal project). I have successfully booted the desktop installer with NFS.

I just downloaded the alternate.iso but there is no 'linux' file. Where can I find this kernel? | 02:00 |
| dr_willis | could be the docs are old, ive seen the kernel file called vmlinuz and other variations also | 02:01 |

| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | i need to run "sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M" every time the computer is rebooted once wireless is ready. What is the best file to add that too? | 03:04 |
| dr_willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: one way . put the command in /etc/rc.local | 03:04 |
| dr_willis | no need for the sudo in rc.local just the command.. | 03:05 |
| jamesst20 | Hi | 03:05 |
| dr_willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: you may want it to wait a few seconds, untill it does the command also.. 'sleep 60' then 'iwconfig ......' | 03:06 |

| jamesst20 | Hi | 03:07 |
| jamesst20 | I have an Alienware m17x R4 and I have some issues with my sound | 03:07 |
| jamesst20 | it is very low | 03:07 |
| DJHenjin | logging in as a user then sudo su to root only counts as 1 user per session right? | 03:10 |
| dr_willis | you might want to check the forums and askubuntu.com for that exact brand/make jamesst20 | 03:10 |
| dr_willis | DJHenjin: i dont think so. and you shouldent use 'sudo su' use 'sudo -i' | 03:10 |
| DJHenjin | sudo -i ? | 03:10 |
| dr_willis | DJHenjin: run the 'who' command and see | 03:11 |
| dr_willis | yes.. do NOT use sudo su, or sudo bash, or other weird ways to get a 'root shell' the proper way is sudo -i | 03:11 |
| DJHenjin | apparently root is logged on through pts 2-9 | 03:11 |
| dr_willis | !sudo | 03:11 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 03:11 |
| jamesst20 | dr_willis alright thanks | 03:11 |

| DJHenjin | is there a way i can kick off all the 'root' users | 03:12 |
| dr_willis | use the kill command and kill their shells... perhaps... | 03:12 |
| dr_willis | makes me wonder why they are on there. | 03:12 |
| DJHenjin | yeah, me too | 03:12 |
| dr_willis | ps ax | less may show what they are doing.. | 03:13 |
| dr_willis | could be root shells you have left hanging in the past.. since the last reboot | 03:13 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | if i put "sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M" inside "/etc/rc.local" wont it expect the user password and hang? | 03:14 |
| dr_willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: i said you dont need 'sudo' i n rc.local | 03:15 |
| dr_willis | its allready running as root.... | 03:15 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | \oh thanks | 03:15 |
| dr_willis | its like the 'last' service script that gets ran when the system boots up | 03:15 |
| dr_willis | you MIGHt want to use that 'sleep 60' to make it wait a minet for the system to get all up to speed. | 03:16 |

| dr_willis | thatgs a root shell.. doing somthing | 03:20 |
| dr_willis | pts/3 is a pusedo terminal.. like a xterm , or some background process | 03:20 |

| benwa | hey there | 03:23 |
| benwa | I have a question for using raid (mdadm) in ubuntu | 03:24 |
| benwa | any expert on that around? | 03:24 |
| dr_willis | i try to not teach beginners about 'kill -9' ;) they get overzelous | 03:24 |
| NarcTix | not an expert but have experience | 03:24 |
| benwa | basically I have 3 hdd (1 500GB and 2 250GB) | 03:24 |
| benwa | I'll like to build a raid 1 with those | 03:24 |
| benwa | what is the right way to do it? | 03:24 |
| benwa | so I did a raid-o with the 2 250GB | 03:25 |
| dr_willis | !raid | 03:25 |
| ubottu | Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto | 03:25 |
| deckard | hello. What is the basic difference between Xubuntu and XFCE. they look so similar to noobs | 03:25 |
| benwa | and then a raid 1 with the 500GB and the raid-0 | 03:25 |
| dr_willis | wonder if the bot is alive.. ;) | 03:25 |
| NarcTix | benwa do you want one of the 250gb as a spare? | 03:25 |
| dr_willis | deckard: xubuntu is ubuntu with xfce | 03:25 |
| benwa | it works fine until I restart then mdadm complains the array is degraded | 03:25 |
| dr_willis | deckard: so its xfce + a few ubuntu changes.. | 03:26 |
| DJHenjin | benwa, you are opening yourself up to a huge risk if either of the 250's dies, and then the 500 dies, or the other way around | 03:26 |
| deckard | why do i see, xfce, xubuntu and ubutu ? | 03:26 |
| benwa | NarcTix I want 500GB mirrored | 03:26 |
| deckard | is xfce use the least resources ? | 03:26 |
| dr_willis | deckard: see where? be more detailed. | 03:26 |
| deckard | as option to login | 03:26 |
| benwa | well I have 3 drives with 1Terao total | 03:26 |
| deckard | brb | 03:26 |
| dr_willis | deckard: the lightest full featured desktop is 'lubuntu' which uses lxde | 03:26 |
| benwa | I just want a raid-1 of 500GB | 03:26 |
| NarcTix | benwa so you want raid 0 | 03:26 |
| dr_willis | deckard: they could be identical.. or use differnt default settings.. | 03:27 |
| === anonymous is now known as Guest24184 | ||
| dr_willis | i dont use xfce. | 03:27 |
| benwa | raid-1 is the duplcating and raid-0 is concatenate right? | 03:27 |
| deckard | brb, sorry baby cry | 03:27 |
| Morph4me | raid 0 is performance ( striped) raid 1 is mirrored | 03:27 |
| benwa | so my thinking was concatenate the two 250GB | 03:27 |
| benwa | to get a virtual 500GB | 03:27 |
| benwa | and mirror that with the other 500GB drive | 03:27 |
| benwa | makes sense? | 03:28 |
| dr_willis | do you really need a raid that badly? ;) its amazeing the # of people i see in here with raid issues | 03:28 |
| === jean is now known as Guest97234 | ||
| === armedengineer is now known as archigos | ||
| benwa | well I wanna use this for backup so yeah I'd like to think it's gonna be safe | 03:29 |
| DJHenjin | soo, i killed all sshd proccesses using ps aux|grep sshd then re logged in my 2 sessions from here, and there are still 7 'root's in who | 03:29 |
| benwa | maybe I should go for a virtual partition | 03:29 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: raid can be useful...raid 5 is really nice for servers for example... | 03:29 |
| dr_willis | dont forget a raid setup .. is not an excuse to NOT make backups | 03:29 |
| dr_willis | ;) | 03:29 |
| benwa | could I make the two 250GB drives look like a virtual 500GB? | 03:29 |
| NarcTix | benwa I think you would have to put them into a LVM to make that array | 03:29 |
| benwa | without using raid-0? | 03:29 |
| kvothetech | benwa: lvm | 03:29 |
| dr_willis | kvothetech: i just seem to see people in here using raid for the wrong reasons way to often | 03:29 |
| benwa | NarcTix how does that work? | 03:29 |
| Morph4me | just mirror he 2 250s and keep the 500gb for storage | 03:30 |
| Morph4me | the* | 03:30 |
| benwa | will I get double speed like with raid-0? | 03:30 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: ah ...yeah there's some good reasons to use it a lot of reasons lvm or etc would be better | 03:30 |
| NarcTix | benwa I work with LVM and it still scares me lol. Google :) | 03:30 |
| Guest97234 | I have my old gconf configurations for global shortcuts. Any way to still use gconf-editor in 13.04 I have gnome-shell and session-fallback installed | 03:30 |
| benwa | Morph4me I need 500GB for backup 250 is too low | 03:30 |
| estudiante | hola | 03:30 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | why can i find "DVD Styler" under the dash? | 03:30 |
| estudiante | kdfghj | 03:30 |
| DJHenjin | use the 500 GB for the backups then benwa | 03:30 |
| benwa | I wanted it mirrored otherwise it's not a safe backup | 03:31 |
| benwa | anyways I'll give a shot to lvm | 03:31 |
| dr_willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: was that a linux app you installed? if you use the search featur eit should show up | 03:31 |
| DJHenjin | get another 500GB then, | 03:31 |
| benwa | DJHenjin | 03:32 |
| benwa | DJHenjin you buy me one? I'll give you my 2 250GB for free ;) | 03:32 |
| dr_willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: ot try launching it from a terminal. use tab completion perhaps to get the name 'dvd<tab>' | 03:32 |
| Blue1 | I need to set a timezone in mysql -- anyone help? | 03:32 |
| DJHenjin | benwa: No. | 03:32 |
| benwa | DJHenjin you're not helping... | 03:33 |
| dr_willis | 250gb hard drives? i think i got a few in the bottom of the closet. | 03:34 |
| benwa | any knows what's the perf on lvm? is it like a regular drive or like raid-0? | 03:34 |
| NarcTix | benwa you need to create an LVM of your disks then create the raid. TBH thats above support. So try google.com | 03:35 |
| dr_willis | i imagine its not going to be as fast as a raid setuo | 03:35 |
| benwa | k thanks | 03:35 |
| benwa | I'll figure | 03:35 |
| dr_willis | the raid url the bot mentioned may be worth reading | 03:36 |
| deckard | ty dr_willis , one last question. Which is lighter, Xubuntu or XFCE? | 03:36 |
| NarcTix | ^^ | 03:37 |
| sere | xubuntu is xfce | 03:37 |

| stanley_robertso | hi all | 03:38 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | one more thing i got to do is... | 03:38 |

| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | with windows i set up a shared folder so his wii can play movies over the network | 03:39 |
| DJHenjin | NarcTix: under /var/log there is no 'messages/ file | 03:40 |

| deckard | so my video games will get best performance with lubuntu? | 03:41 |
| dr_willis | wii has some sort of video player? not seen that.. or is this a hacked wii? | 03:41 |
| dr_willis | deckard: depends on the game. and how tight your system is on resources | 03:41 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | its a hacked wii | 03:41 |
| NarcTix | was it Debian or Ubuntu who decided to remove alot of the usual stuff from syslog? | 03:42 |
| deckard | its not tight i just dont care of desktop affects and i assume anything not orking on those affects will go to the game running better | 03:42 |
| Guest78478 | hey | 03:42 |
| deckard | but i am ignorant | 03:42 |
| === Guest78478 is now known as sid03 | ||
| dr_willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: for samba, you can setup a samba share by rightclicking on the video directory and tellint it to make a guest share.. | 03:42 |
| dr_willis | deckard: if you are using steam, theres a pakcage that makes a 'steam' desktop that you select at the login screen that just runs steam. to maxamize resources for your games | 03:43 |
| deckard | not steam | 03:43 |
| deckard | buy ty | 03:43 |
| dr_willis | you coudl always just select a very minimal window manager only for the most resources for your games . like openbox or jwm | 03:44 |
| dr_willis | but thats geting a bit extreme | 03:44 |
| NarcTix | lightdm =1 | 03:44 |
| NarcTix | +1 | 03:44 |
| NarcTix | Handles most desktops too | 03:45 |
| goddard | how can i disable ctrl+p on ubuntu? | 03:45 |
| dr_willis | if your system is so skimpy on resources that lubuntu is causing your game to slow down... well.. just using jwm will only help a little i imagine. | 03:45 |

| === toast is now known as darthanubis | ||
| dr_willis | utfans05: be sure you got all your dd options right befor you tell it to do it ;) | 04:04 |
| utfans05 | so it should be dd if=/dev/sr0 of=/dev/sdd1 | 04:04 |
| NarcTix | toast > /dev/null | 04:04 |
| NarcTix | utfans05 yeah thats tgood | 04:05 |
| dr_willis | NarcTix: top list of commands.. ;) dd, busybox, and ssh... and busybox can replace dd and ssh i think, ;P | 04:05 |
| Morph4me | utfans05 you can check that with > df-h < as well as long the udf volume of win 7 is mounted | 04:05 |
| dr_willis | err.. you DONT want sdd1 | 04:05 |
| dr_willis | that will image the cd to the first PARTITION on the usb.. not to the 'drive' of the usb | 04:05 |
| NarcTix | dr_willis Ive never used busy box | 04:05 |
| dr_willis | and youmay want to ask in #windows if this will even work with windows7 | 04:05 |
| Morph4me | as example sending mine to media would be like this using dd >>> sudo dd if=/dev/sr0 of=/media/morph4me/win7-64bit.iso | 04:06 |
| dr_willis | NarcTix: more likely you never noticed you were using it. ;) | 04:06 |
| dr_willis | dont forget to use the 'bs=4M' option with dd. or else it may be very very slow | 04:06 |
| utfans05 | dr_willis: so i need to send it to sdd | 04:06 |
| Morph4me | true dr_willis good point | 04:07 |
| dr_willis | utfans05: if you are 10000% sure your usb flash drive is /dev/sdd | 04:07 |
| utfans05 | dr_willis: yeah it is | 04:07 |
| NarcTix | dr_willis your probably right. Alot of new stuff doesent break and need hacking into these days. | 04:07 |
| dr_willis | and you may want to ask in #windows if you even can dd a win7 dvd to usb.. and it will work | 04:07 |
| dr_willis | NarcTix: i belive the normal initrd stuff uses it for just a moment or 2 ;0 i havent looked into it in ages | 04:08 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | i know i got the ip and folder name correct, i cant seem to get the smb share working, can anyone help | 04:09 |
| dr_willis | i played with some busybox - mini linux disrto - years ago for a fun weekend.. | 04:09 |
| dr_willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: you did set it up as a guest share? | 04:09 |
| NarcTix | dr_willis Ive only ever experienced controlling initramfs until I started building Gentoo kernels but never came across busybox | 04:09 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | yes | 04:09 |
| dr_willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: or if ysing a samba user name.. you did give the user a samba password via 'sudp smbpassed -a username' ? | 04:09 |
| dr_willis | oops 'sudo smbpasswd -a username' | 04:10 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | but also the wii makes it to where u have to use the user account, and i know that info is correct | 04:10 |
| dr_willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: so you aer connecting as 'guest' or some 'username' ? | 04:10 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | that i did not do | 04:10 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | i want to use user name | 04:10 |
| dr_willis | then you must set a samba password via ------------> 'sudo smbpasswd -a username' | 04:11 |
| dr_willis | you can even setup the special 'home' share in /etc/samba/smb.conf where each user can be shareing their own home directory automatically if you wanted to | 04:11 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | now does this have to the same pass as the user's pass? | 04:11 |
| dr_willis | samba password does NOT have to be the same as the users login password | 04:12 |
| dr_willis | i always make the 2 the same however. ;) | 04:12 |
| dr_willis | but im on a home lan. | 04:12 |
| NarcTix | dr_willis bad habit if samba gets exploited sos that users account | 04:13 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | sudo: smbpassed: command not found | 04:13 |
| dr_willis | NarcTix: yea.. my dog may haxor my system. | 04:13 |
| dr_willis | then you must set a samba password via ------------> 'sudo smbpasswd -a username' | 04:13 |
| dr_willis | typos ;) | 04:13 |
| NarcTix | dr_willis Im lookinf from a sys-ops perspective ;) | 04:14 |
| dr_willis | im all about 'casual home user' these days.. | 04:14 |
| dr_willis | wife, grandkids. and the dog.. | 04:14 |
| dr_willis | the 4 year knows more about accessing the net then the wife... | 04:14 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | password took, but wii still fail to sonnect | 04:15 |
| dr_willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: see if your nautilus file manager can connect to the share. | 04:15 |
| dr_willis | smb://ip.of.the.server/sharename | 04:15 |
| dr_willis | hit ctrl-l in nautilus to enter the address | 04:15 |
| dr_willis | ctrl-L | 04:16 |
| woo | hello | 04:16 |
| NarcTix | dr_willis your safe unless you have a wireless pace maker (imagine the DoS) and skynet has been in progress for years qbit processors are the key | 04:16 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | if i stop the share and restart will i have to sudo smbpasswd -a roy again? | 04:16 |
| nevyn | Roy_Newbie_13-04: no. | 04:16 |
| dr_willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: that would make samba rather useless if you had to... | 04:16 |
| dr_willis | business with 10000 samba users... haveing to re-add their password every day.. ;) | 04:17 |
| dr_willis | there is some way to sync the login password and the samba password.. but its been years since ive done that | 04:17 |

| dr_willis | ctrl-L to show the address entry field. | 04:18 |
| dr_willis | bash dsent know what to do with 'smb://' nautilus does | 04:19 |
| dr_willis | at least you had the sanity to not use a space in the share name,. ;) | 04:19 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | i know no spaces to begin with | 04:20 |
| dr_willis | also try the address 'smb://127.0.0.1/Videos' and see if any other pc on the lan can see the shares. | 04:20 |
| NarcTix | always use - | 04:20 |
| dr_willis | its really really annoying when all the other pcs see a share.. then the one you want to see it... dosent | 04:20 |
| dr_willis | and i definatly have seen a share not work/appear... then a few min later.. it pops up. ;) | 04:20 |

| Chamunks | anyone know a good tutorial on eggdrop here? | 04:21 |
| dr_willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: those are both the file manager.. that is 'nautilus' | 04:21 |
| sarahS | hi everyone… | 04:21 |
| Chamunks | i dont even know if its decently simple to run in ubuntu. | 04:21 |
| dr_willis | woo controll on what way? | 04:21 |
| sarahS | I'm trying to make a directory writable by apache in a responsible manner | 04:21 |
| dr_willis | Chamunks: theres should be 100000's f web sites out there with Eggdrop guides.. i perfer to use 'znc' myself | 04:22 |
| sarahS | and when i do chown -R www-data ./tmp | 04:22 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | at teh bottom Browser Network then Windows Network , then oops something went wrong | 04:22 |
| NarcTix | sarahs you configuring Apache directly or using a panel? | 04:22 |
| sarahS | to a directory, it changes the owner…but apache still can't write to it | 04:22 |
| sarahS | NarcTix: ssh | 04:22 |
| Chamunks | dr_willis, i need the bot functions more then the bouncer functions. | 04:22 |

| dr_willis | Chamunks: i bet theres an #eggdrop channel also | 04:23 |
| Chamunks | well i dont need it i want to learn about it. | 04:23 |
| Chamunks | I'll look around | 04:23 |
| Chamunks | thanks dr_willis | 04:23 |
| === kirkland is now known as Guest50630 | ||
| NarcTix | sarahs so whats the owner and group on the directories and whats the apache procs running at modules or fast cgi? | 04:23 |
| dr_willis | woo ubuntu server runs 'services' theres not really thing to 'support pi' since the pi ccan run linux.. and access the services ubuntu dosent care if it a pi or a android phone. ;) | 04:23 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | Browse Network ... Windows Network ... WORKGROUP oops something went wrong | 04:23 |
| Joshuame13 | I just downloaded Linux for the first time! | 04:24 |
| sarahS | NarcTix: the owner is www-data which i believe is the user apache is running as | 04:24 |
| dr_willis | woo i have no idea on what landscape even is or does. | 04:24 |
| sarahS | as far as the second question…i haven't the foggiest idea | 04:24 |
| Braden` | I am using Ubuntu 13.04, and I started xwindows. I see the desktop, and if I right-click, I get the appropriate context menus; however, I don't see any task bar along the top or side (I don't know what it is called in linux) | 04:24 |
| NarcTix | sarahs the owner needs to be the web user and the group needs to be www-data | 04:24 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | say my name if u helping me, chat scrooling fast | 04:24 |
| woo | dr_willis: thank you. dr_willis, from my understanding is that it controls updates from the cloud. | 04:24 |
| dr_willis | woo - hmm. nevver used it. I just do small home lans. | 04:25 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | Unable to access location | 04:25 |
| somsip_ | sarahS: apache should be run by www-data, but can easily check with 'ps aux | grep apache' and look in the left most column | 04:25 |
| sarahS | NarcTix: ok…by web user, you mean the server? apache2? | 04:25 |
| === BadLarry_ is now known as BadLarry | ||
| dr_willis | bb in a bit... | 04:25 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | dr_willis ^ | 04:25 |
| somsip_ | sarahS: is the directory you are trying to change in the webroot, or somewehre else. Eg: /var/www/website/tmp, or /home/sarah/tmp ? | 04:26 |
| NarcTix | srahs depends on what your apache processes are running as if there apache modules will be apache2 if you run them as fast cgi would be under there web user | 04:26 |
| sarahS | somsip_: yes, it is a subdirectory of the webroot | 04:26 |
| Braden` | Anyone? | 04:27 |
| sarahS | actually | 04:27 |
| somsip_ | sarahS: and the parent dirs allow www-data to have access? | 04:27 |
| sarahS | somsip_: /var/www/website/tmp would be accurate | 04:27 |
| NarcTix | sarahs fast cgi over apache modules any day easier to trouble shoot for one | 04:27 |
| sarahS | somsip_: read access | 04:28 |
| somsip_ | sarahS: maybe a dump of ls -la /var/www and /var/www/website would help/ Can you pastebin? | 04:29 |
| NarcTix | sarahs whats the problem again, Ive had a few spliffs :)? | 04:30 |
| sarahS | hahah | 04:30 |
| sarahS | I'm trying to NOT chmod 777 a directory | 04:30 |
| woo | sarahS: in tmp? | 04:31 |
| somsip_ | sarahS: my usual approach would be to chgrp -R www-data {dir} and chmod 770 {dir} But this is not always ideal | 04:31 |
| sarahS | correct | 04:31 |
| somsip_ | sarahS: you told me not tmp (as in /tmp) but just a folder called tmp. Correct? | 04:31 |
| sarahS | somsip_: thanks..will try that | 04:31 |
| deckard | hello. what is the command to install lubuntu? | 04:32 |
| somsip_ | deckard: suo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop IIRC | 04:32 |
| deckard | is it sudo apt-get install lubuntu-dekstop? | 04:32 |
| NarcTix | sarahs then the easiest way is to run your users as fast-cgi rather than apache modules , that way the web-user is what the process(dir) owner then you dont have to set world permissions | 04:32 |
| deckard | ty | 04:32 |
| deckard | i can install it with xubuntu and try it? | 04:32 |
| somsip_ | deckard: I believe so | 04:32 |
| deckard | ty | 04:32 |
| deckard | what is iirc mean? | 04:33 |
| sarahS | NarcTix: that sounds like something I will have to read up on. apache modules I already know. Thanks for the suggestion | 04:33 |
| somsip_ | deckard: If I Recall Correctly | 04:33 |
| deckard | oh lol | 04:33 |
| deckard | ty | 04:33 |
| deckard | i have it | 04:33 |
| dr_willis | you can install most all the *-desktop packages that way deckard | 04:33 |
| Braden` | I am using Ubuntu 13.04, and I started xwindows. I see the desktop, and if I right-click, I get the appropriate context menus; however, I don't see any task bar along the top or side (I don't know what it is called in linux) | 04:33 |

| woo | Braden`: are you new to gnome3? | 04:34 |
| dr_willis | Braden`: 3d video card drivers may not be working right | 04:34 |
| Braden` | dr_willis: Is there a way to disable 3d? | 04:34 |
| Braden` | Because I really don't want all of the fancy stuff anyways | 04:34 |
| dr_willis | id suggest getting 3d working instead | 04:35 |
| Braden` | I actually used the 2d version before they stripped it out in 12.11 | 04:35 |
| Braden` | Too much overhead | 04:35 |
| Braden` | This is for a development machine | 04:35 |
| dr_willis | there is no unity2d in 13.04 | 04:35 |
| Braden` | How do I use gnome then? | 04:35 |
| sarahS | somsip_: http://pastie.org/7919018 | 04:35 |
| dr_willis | gnome shell? thats not unity | 04:35 |
| woo | Braden`: the top bar is what you use to save files or control the selected window | 04:36 |
| Braden` | dr_willis: I know, how do I switch to Gnome? | 04:36 |
| dr_willis | !gnome-shell | 04:36 |
| somsip_ | sarahS: RoR? | 04:36 |
| Braden` | woo: Oh sorry, I didn't see your message | 04:36 |
| sarahS | somsip_: correct | 04:36 |
| Braden` | woo: Yes, I would like to use Gnome 3 | 04:36 |
| dr_willis | install gnome-shell and select it at login | 04:37 |
| Braden` | ok | 04:37 |
| Braden` | Thank you | 04:37 |
| sarahS | somsip_: installing redmine | 04:37 |
| woo | Braden`: unity and gnome3 are a lot alike | 04:37 |
| Braden` | woo: Yea, but they unfortunately cut support for 2d unity :( | 04:37 |
| dr_willis | lubuntu is the lightest desktop | 04:37 |
| NarcTix | desktops ahhhhh the next part of my Linux certification wants me to configure and troubleshoot x11 (Ive worked in tty or ptty) | 04:37 |
| somsip_ | sarahS: sarahS there looks nothing wrong with this. Is there already a file in tmp that is not chown www-data that apache is unable to open for write? | 04:37 |
| dr_willis | Braden`: unity3d uses llvm for low end systems.. but it can be buggy | 04:38 |
| Braden` | How do I enable that? I could give it a try... | 04:38 |
| dr_willis | its enabled by default | 04:38 |
| Braden` | oh | 04:39 |
| dr_willis | if you want gnome shell.. then install gnome shell | 04:39 |
| Braden` | Well, I am using the nvidia drivers provided by the package manager. How do I fix the current problem with the task bar not showing up? | 04:39 |
| Braden` | If I can fix that, and determine whether the system is responsive enough to use Unity, I will use that | 04:39 |
| Braden` | Otherwise, I will switch to gnome | 04:39 |
| dr_willis | run nvidia-settings be sure the drivers are working Braden` | 04:40 |
| NarcTix | I still am a big fan of xfce but kde is getting my vote at the moment (was a long time hater of kde) | 04:40 |
| dr_willis | unity USES GNOME... you mean gnome-shell | 04:40 |
| Braden` | Right, gnome shell | 04:41 |
| Braden` | Semantics | 04:41 |
| Braden` | ftw | 04:41 |
| corehook | re | 04:41 |
| Braden` | Oh | 04:42 |
| Braden` | Which driver should I use for virtualbox? | 04:42 |
| Braden` | (assuming ubuntu is the guest os) | 04:42 |
| NarcTix | bradeb whats the host? | 04:42 |
| Braden` | nvidia-settings says "ERROR: The control display is undefined" | 04:43 |
| nevyn | NarcTix: why does it matter. | 04:43 |
| Braden` | NarcTix: Windows 8 | 04:43 |
| nevyn | Braden`: that's cause a guest in virtualbox doesn't have a nvidia card | 04:43 |
| Braden` | nevyn: I would assume because some OS's allow promiscuity to the adapters | 04:43 |
| AlbertoM | Hi everybody i need some help i have instlled some software like chromium skype and comodo antivirus for linux (I know i dont need but i want to protect the machines whith windows in my home and it dont consumes too much resourcees) i allso instll teamviwer when i reestart the machine i see something of win e pop up and i dont want nothing related whith wine how can i comprobe i donth ave win e? | 04:43 |
| NarcTix | ^^ why does it matter because he asked what driver duh! | 04:43 |
| AlbertoM | Excuse me my english are too bad | 04:43 |
| nevyn | NarcTix: 14:46 < Braden`> Which driver should I use for virtualbox? | 04:43 |
| Braden` | nevyn: That is what I just thought of, which is why I mentioned I am using virtualbox. I probably need to use a different driver | 04:44 |
| NarcTix | braden search on microsoft technet | 04:44 |
| nevyn | he's running a guest ubuntu in virtualbox the correct driver will be for the virtualbox framebuffer hardware. | 04:44 |
| Braden` | Let me check the package manager | 04:44 |
| NarcTix | the drivers are still windows drivers | 04:44 |
| dr_willis_ | virtuabox? you should have said that eralier. ;) | 04:45 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | i have system-config-samba now and that isnt helping, not even on my own machine | 04:45 |
| dr_willis_ | you install the vbox guest addations and you may want to double check the 'use host 3d' option is enabled in teh options for vbox | 04:45 |
| nevyn | Braden`: you need to install guest additions. | 04:45 |
| nevyn | NarcTix: stop. | 04:45 |
| NarcTix | The host needs to install the guest modules | 04:45 |
| Braden` | nevyn: I already installed them. I discovered I am missing the guest dkms package though | 04:46 |
| dr_willis_ | for running in vbox. you may seriously want to use lubuntu instead of unity or gnome-shell | 04:46 |
| Braden` | NarcTix: Already installed | 04:46 |
| Braden` | dr_willis: What is the difference? | 04:46 |
| Braden` | If he can stay online long enough... :/ | 04:46 |
| dr_willis_ | lubuntu is the ligthtest full feature desktop | 04:46 |
| Braden` | dr_willis: What do you mean "light"? | 04:47 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | dr_willis_ i have system-config-samba installed now, and still wont show inder Files / Browse Network | 04:47 |
| dr_willis_ | uses the leaset resources | 04:47 |
| dr_willis_ | Roy_Newbie_13-04: some toimes you just have to fight with samba. i dont have any magic answers.. see if other pcs on the lan can see the shares perhaps? | 04:47 |
| Braden` | hmm | 04:47 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | cant | 04:47 |
| AlbertoM | Hi can any body help me i want to know if have traces of win e in my system | 04:48 |
| Braden` | Well, I appreciate the responses and time that everyone has given me. | 04:48 |
| dr_willis_ | Roy_Newbie_13-04: i tend to just enable the home shares. give samba passwords to my users. and restart.. and it works | 04:48 |
| AlbertoM | i expplain the case above | 04:48 |
| NarcTix | braden what error means your missing dkms (needed for building some kernel mods) | 04:48 |
| dr_willis_ | Roy_Newbie_13-04: you may want to double check that all firewalls are off for testing | 04:48 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | how do i do that? | 04:48 |
| dr_willis_ | !firewall | 04:49 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other Linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW | An alternative to ufw is the 'iptables' command - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo | GUI frontends such as Gufw (GNOME) and Guarddog (KDE from Lucid onwards) also exist. | 04:49 |
| dr_willis_ | windows has its own options for firewalls.. | 04:49 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | do i have to be root for ufw | 04:49 |
| dr_willis_ | i tend to share videos over DLNA/UpnP these days instead of samba. so i havent fought with samba in ages either. | 04:50 |
| mong | AlbertoM: "sudo apt-get purge wine" , followed by "rm -rf ~/.wine", ought to remove it as far as i know | 04:50 |
| NarcTix | Where as alot of firewalls are built on Linux or Unix | 04:50 |
| === BadLarry is now known as BadLarry_ | ||
| dr_willis_ | AlbertoM: there might be a few windapp.desktop files in your .config dir you may need to remove by hand.. but those wont affect anything | 04:50 |

| NarcTix | AlbertM yeah find / -iname wine | xargs rm -rf /dev/null | 04:53 |

| NarcTix | Im currently under the influence of canabis and alcohol so cant go to in depth | 05:10 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | while im waiting to see if so, im doing a retart, ill be back | 05:10 |
| NarcTix | see cant even spell cannabis right | 05:10 |
| histo | Braden`: disable splash and quiet from default options in /etc/default/grub | 05:11 |
| corehook | when i start some bash script from console its work | 05:12 |
| NarcTix | braden do it in /etc/grub.d/40_custom | 05:12 |
| corehook | but dont work when start with cron | 05:12 |
| corehook | which may be a popular error in the startup script? | 05:12 |
| histo | corehook: which users cron are you starting it with? | 05:13 |
| NarcTix | corehook whats your shebang in your script? | 05:13 |
| histo | Braden`: then sudo update-grub after you remove them from there | 05:13 |
| NarcTix | by shebang i mean #! | 05:14 |
| ajith | HI how to share applciation installed using wine in ubuntu ltsp 12.04 | 05:14 |
| Relaxation | TBH, pointers are fairly easy concept of C. In fact, rudimentary. I've exercised some quite complex data structure algorithms that are pretty hard to comprehend / follow. But understanding a simple pointer has never been a problem for me. | 05:14 |
| Braden` | Ok, thank you | 05:14 |
| ajith | I am unable to find these applciation in clients when i login | 05:14 |
| Relaxation | I understand C, up until we start looking at data structures, like constructing a graph / implementing it. | 05:15 |
| NarcTix | relaxatin and kiyoura what educational upbringing have you had? | 05:15 |
| histo | ajith: ~/.wine/drive_c/ | 05:15 |
| Relaxation | Then things become hard for me to follow. I think it's because I don't understand the algorithm to begin with. | 05:15 |
| corehook | dev user | 05:16 |
| kiyoura | NarcTix 0 'formal' i am self-taught | 05:16 |
| corehook | shebang? what is ? | 05:16 |
| NarcTix | kiyoura :) | 05:16 |
| Relaxation | I'm studying computer science in college. The curriculum here follows C, and it is no joke at all. | 05:16 |
| ajith | ok after going in to how do i share..I am unable to find the installed applciation in client | 05:16 |
| histo | !ot Relaxation | 05:17 |
| histo | !ot | Relaxation | 05:17 |
| ubottu | Relaxation: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 05:17 |
| NarcTix | corehook by shebang whats the first line of your script #! | 05:17 |
| dr_willis_ | hmm., well users install wine apps.. so they wouldent be 'system wide' | 05:17 |
| ajith | how can i install them system wide??? | 05:17 |
| dr_willis_ | no idea.. not really ever tried to do that. | 05:18 |
| NarcTix | corehook if like you said it runs in your terminal but not from cron what shell are you using? | 05:18 |
| Relaxation | Actually, I made straight A's throughout my whole school career. Then I got to computer science in college. Most challenging thing I've experienced in the world of Academia. Failed my first class this last semester. Discouraging, putting all your time and resources into something, only to fail. It's odd. To me failing a class reflects not trying enough, not studying, etc.. But this was not the case at all for me. | 05:18 |
| histo | ajith: perhaps #winehq can be of some assistance | 05:18 |
| dr_willis_ | ajith: you could make a script that calls wine /path/to/some/systgemdir/theappinstaller.exe so each user can install it when they want to | 05:18 |
| dr_willis_ | when wine runs a windows app. its makes a .wine dir for the user to keep the wine stuff in. | 05:19 |
| dr_willis_ | you normally dont share that .wine directory system wide | 05:19 |
| cyphase | is there anyone here with an htc one? are you having issues seeing all of the phone's internal storage when plugged in to your computer? did you, and you fixed it? | 05:19 |
| ajith | okay .. | 05:19 |
| clcto | cyphase: do you have android sdk installed? | 05:20 |
| histo | cyphase: are you using mtp or mass storage mode | 05:20 |
| NarcTix | no one shares there wine celar ~/.wine :) | 05:20 |
| dr_willis_ | i recall a few apps in the past that used wine, that installed 'system wide' but i bet they were heavaly tweaked and took a bit of work to get going | 05:21 |
| Senor | where can I get source of login relevent stuff ? | 05:21 |
| dr_willis_ | Senor: be a bit more specific. | 05:21 |
| corehook | yep | 05:21 |
| NarcTix | dr_willis windows apps system wide serious fail | 05:21 |
| dr_willis_ | NarcTix: i seem to recall Picassa and other apps doing that. | 05:22 |
| dr_willis_ | they used their own secial wine.. as does that netflix-on-ubuntu package. | 05:22 |
| === tjbiddle_ is now known as tjbiddle | ||
| dr_willis_ | thats the latest tool that use the wine system wide trick that i can think of | 05:22 |
| NarcTix | yeah like a wine binary cant think of the name for it | 05:23 |
| Relaxation | Does anyone know why Ubuntu only cares about the first 8 characters of your password? | 05:23 |
| dr_willis_ | 'cares' ? | 05:23 |
| histo | Relaxation: Can you elaborate on that? | 05:23 |
| === onekt2 is now known as onekt | ||
| dr_willis_ | you want to enforce longer required passwords? | 05:24 |
| Relaxation | No | 05:24 |
| histo | Relaxation: then it cares about all the characters | 05:24 |
| Relaxation | Lets say your password is X amount of characters. Ubuntu only needs the first 8 to log in | 05:24 |
| Senor | dr_willis_ : I have one problem with init process , I have no root account set ,as I boot from non-distro kernel | 05:24 |
| * dr_willis_ is going to have to go on again about how it pays to be verbose and detailed on irc... ;) | 05:24 | |
| NarcTix | My names NarcTix and Ive just realised im an alcoholic as Ive just reached to take a drink from my deoderant for the 5th time good night. | 05:25 |
| Relaxation | If password X is > 8, you still only need the first 8 to log into Ubuntu. So, from my perspective, it only "cares" about the first 8 characters. | 05:25 |
| dr_willis_ | or when you are setting the password - its only using the first 8 to begin with... | 05:26 |
| Ben64 | Relaxation: i don't think that is true | 05:26 |
| Aspire-Revo-User | Can anyone recommend a go partition cloning application like CloneZilla? | 05:26 |
| lifeboy | Trying to set up qemu-kvm on 12.04 64bit server, but get this error: -bash: sudo setcap cap_net_admin=ei /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64: No such file or directory | 05:26 |
| lifeboy | anyone that can shed some light on this pls? | 05:26 |
| Relaxation | Ben64: try it for yourself. | 05:26 |
| Ben64 | just did | 05:27 |
| dr_willis_ | Aspire-Revo-User: why not clonezilla? ;) | 05:27 |
| Relaxation | And? | 05:27 |
| Ben64 | my password was already >8, and 8 doesn't work | 05:27 |
| Aspire-Revo-User | dr_willis_: It is not working, freezing up and not doing what it suppose to do. Watched several YouTube video on how to use it and I am following the instructions as best i can. | 05:27 |
| Relaxation | You did something wrong then... I know for a fact it only needs 8 characters to log in. | 05:27 |
| lifeboy | I have never used setcap... | 05:27 |
| Ben64 | Relaxation: or more likely... you're wrong | 05:28 |
| gdi2k | Relaxation, using first 8 chars does not work - what makes you think this? | 05:28 |
| Relaxation | Are you sure you counted the characters properly? | 05:28 |
| mong | Relaxation: i have just tested this with my password as well, and cannot reproduce what you describe | 05:29 |
| Relaxation | Wait hang on. | 05:29 |
| Relaxation | Brb, need to make sure I'm telling this correctly. | 05:29 |
| dr_willis_ | sudo passwd billgates moneybagXXXXXXXXX | 05:30 |

| nevyn | renato_: that's complete garbage for a long time. | 05:30 |
| dr_willis_ | too bad im not on a ubuntu box to test... | 05:30 |
| Ben64 | he left | 05:31 |
| nevyn | yeah I know. | 05:31 |
| nevyn | renato_: sorry wasn't for you. | 05:31 |
| cyphase | clcto, i thought it might the sdk, but i only just now tried it on another computer :/, and i do see it all. how do i get around that? histro, there's no way to choose between mtp and mass storage on the phone. | 05:31 |
| Ben64 | but i made a new user on my server with 20 character password - "12345678901234567890" and nothing less than the full 20 worked | 05:31 |
| mong | perhaps he's using DES encryption or something | 05:31 |
| clcto | cyphase: can you logcat? | 05:31 |
| nevyn | Ben64: the old unix crypt hash was only good for about 8 chars | 05:32 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | under htop i see "smbd -F" three times, is that enough to have smb working, thats all the smb related processes i can see, or at least sound like | 05:32 |
| Relaxation | NVM, it's been changed. On older versions though, it only "cares" about the first 8 characters. | 05:32 |
| nevyn | Relaxation: not since long before ubuntu existed. | 05:32 |
| Ben64 | were you on warty warthog | 05:32 |
| nevyn | this wasn't true on debian potato. | 05:32 |
| dr_willis_ | on Angry Amobea? :) | 05:33 |
| nevyn | tho crypt was an option if you chose to disable md5 passwords (which you shouldn't do) | 05:33 |
| Ben64 | i thought they were sha? | 05:33 |
| nevyn | they are now. | 05:33 |
| Relaxation | Well apparently it use to use DES encryption , which is what I was referring to. | 05:34 |
| nevyn | Ben64: so there was crypt (which was limited length) then md5 (which was reaonably broken) then sha. | 05:34 |
| dr_willis_ | Roy_Newbie_13-04: if you really want to dig deep into samba - thers several books on it in the repos under the 'samba-doc' package.. but they may be a little out of date. but they do have trouble shooting guides.. and theres askubuntu,com that may have some more up to date trobuleshooting guides | 05:34 |

| GinTonicool | hi guys,when chrome playing videos ,the sound always quiver ,shiver ,what's wrong ? | 05:48 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: in youtube? | 05:48 |
| GinTonicool | anywhere | 05:49 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: run it with google-chrome --audio-buffer-size=2048 | 05:49 |
| === seronis is now known as seronis|Zzz | ||
| === amiller_ is now known as amiller | ||
| somsip_ | It's a known bug FITNR | 05:49 |
| GinTonicool | somsip, how do that in gnome desktop | 05:49 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: What does that use? Menus or shortcuts? | 05:50 |
| GinTonicool | i do not know your meanings | 05:51 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: I have never seen gnome desktop. How do you launch Chrome? Do you click on a shortcut on the desktop, or do you use a menu? | 05:52 |
| dave_ | dr_willis_, yeah, the usb stick didnt work at all. i think im going to create an iso using windows since my dvd finally worked and then have it stored on a backup drive that i have | 05:52 |
| GinTonicool | i put a chrome icon on desktop and gnome panel ,i double click the icon | 05:53 |
| histo | GinTonicool: alt+F2 will bring up a run dialog or run his command in a terminal | 05:53 |
| dave_ | dr_willis_, and the os's are on 2 completely seprate drives so i can manager which one boots by selecting the drive :D | 05:53 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: then I guess you can right-click the icon and edit the command to include --audio-buffer-size=2048 | 05:54 |
| GinTonicool | i check it now , | 05:54 |
| aarcane | how can I get a list of all currently recommended packages, and which of the installed packages recommends them? | 05:55 |
| kubanc | hellow! Is there any security scanner that is checking if sites were hacked (malicious code, exploit scanner, checking if there is any suspicious code) in ubuntu server | 05:56 |
| somsip_ | kubanc: RIPS? | 05:57 |
| somsip_ | kubanc: hmm - that's more for looking for holes actually... | 05:57 |
| GinTonicool | histo ,somsip, i add this at chrome property by right click icon ---property ---command like this :/usr/bin/google-chrome --audio-buffer-size=2048 ,but it does not work | 06:00 |
| jmurrib21 | what is /dev/mapper/cryptswap1 some times when I boot it says that device needs to be mounted or skip mounting? | 06:01 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: try just running it from terminal first to see if it does fix your problem. And make sure you are using the builtin flashplugin and not an installed flashplugin. I forgot about checking that first | 06:01 |

| kubanc | somsip_: what about OWASP? | 06:03 |
| somsip_ | kubanc: never heard of it. | 06:04 |
| GinTonicool | maybe it is the fuiltin flashplugin ,,,i installed adobe flash player 11.7,,,, | 06:04 |
| swiss | i've touched owasp | 06:04 |
| swiss | what about owasp | 06:04 |
| swiss | kubanc: are you looking for hacked or hackable? | 06:04 |
| swiss | hacked is only found through logs | 06:04 |
| GinTonicool | how to check which plugin chrome is using when playing videos | 06:04 |
| dr_willis_ | GinTonicool: right click on the video? | 06:05 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: in Chrome, open chrome://plugins | 06:05 |
| swiss | kubanc:i'm going to bed soon, but systems security is kinda my specialty, what are you looking for specifically? | 06:06 |
| kubanc | swiss: i'm looking for a some sort of a scanner program, that looks at my sites (most of them are Joomla) and looks for malicoius code, if the site was hacked, etc... I don't understand what you are saying with hacked or hackable.. | 06:06 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: I have 11.7.700.169 disabled | 06:06 |
| swiss | kubanc: hacked implies past tense | 06:06 |
| GinTonicool | not right click ,just play videos like youtube,,,, | 06:06 |
| swiss | kubanc: are you trying to check if exploits exist or are you trying to check if someone has exploited you | 06:07 |
| kubanc | swiss: I am trying to check if someone has exploited web site | 06:07 |
| GinTonicool | somsip ,i disabled the adobe flash player ,but now the video sites show that :no flash player installed | 06:08 |
| swiss | kubanc: if it has already been compromised? I suggest dumping all your logs into something like splunk and sorting through them like that | 06:08 |
| dr_willis_ | GinTonicool: you ashed how to see which one it was using.. it can depend on the site. html5 or flash.. right clicking on the video shoule bring up a menu to tell you wat its using for that video | 06:08 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: Is the builtin plugin enabled? | 06:08 |
| swiss | kubanc: for checking hackability, OWASP is generally good afaik | 06:08 |
| GinTonicool | what's the full name of builtin plugin | 06:09 |
| Prock82 | . | 06:10 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: surprisingly, it looks like I've actually enabled the installed plugin at /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so | 06:10 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: And disabled the builtin at /opt/google/chrome/PepperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so | 06:10 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: this is the report for this bug https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=224046 | 06:11 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | how can i get new emails to show under the Mail icon on the top menu | 06:11 |
| dr_willis_ | ive never seen that icon show emails. ;) its more of an IM client notfication i thought.. unless thunderbird somehow works with it.. | 06:12 |
| GinTonicool | somsip, disabled the builtin at /opt/google/chrome/PepperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so ?sure ? | 06:12 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | i saw a pic on line shiwint it | 06:12 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | also how to temove something from it | 06:13 |
| aarcane | htop | 06:13 |
| dr_willis_ | Roy_Newbie_13-04: try the system-settings -> online accounts and enable gmail accounts perhaps.. and then you might need to run thunderbird and tell it to show the info. | 06:13 |
| kubanc | swiss: ok, for hackability, but i'm looking for software that will inform me that there's probably some strage code or files under under some path and i should check that.. | 06:13 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: it's not what I thought I'd done, but my 26.0.1410.63 version has working sound with builtin disabled, and installed enabled, using the --audio-buffer-size parameter. If I excluded that param, it is choppy. YMMV | 06:14 |
| dr_willis_ | Roy_Newbie_13-04: if you use gmail. i recall gmail-indicator applets available at some ppa's | 06:14 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | like if i open thunderbird once and never useed it, its allways there | 06:14 |
| DJHenjin | somebody has been trying to hack into my server | 06:14 |

| dr_willis_ | DJHenjin: i tend to just install it and leave it. ;) then use logwatch about once a week to look at the logs | 06:16 |
| dr_willis_ | but really i only used ot on my vps.. not like there was anything critical on it | 06:16 |
| DJHenjin | can logwatch be ran on a machine other than the server? | 06:16 |
| GinTonicool | somsip ,i'm using the same version of your | 06:16 |
| dr_willis_ | logwatch parses the log files.. | 06:17 |
| dr_willis_ | and makes a nice report | 06:17 |
| DJHenjin | obviously | 06:17 |
| u13 | сасай | 06:17 |
| DJHenjin | but I can only connect by SSH into my server | 06:17 |
| dr_willis_ | so it has to have access to the log files... | 06:17 |
| dr_willis_ | ssh can access remote files. | 06:17 |
| DJHenjin | but other than having access to the logs, if i have the logs on my local machine | 06:17 |
| dr_willis_ | or you can ssh into the server and run logwatch | 06:17 |
| dr_willis_ | i only use the most basic features of logwatch | 06:18 |
| GinTonicool | somsip, your builtin plugin is disabled ? how to do that , disabled /opt/google/chrome/PepperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so ? | 06:18 |

| AlbertoM | Hello can yyou help me suggest me one e mail client and how to configure an @outlook.com account | 06:26 |

| ubottu | AlbertoM: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 06:26 |
| Ben64 | AlbertoM: thunderbird, check outlook.com for instructions | 06:26 |
| GinTonicool | all the plugins chrome is using are abled except adobe flash plugin , i do not know which exact plugin i need | 06:27 |
| AlbertoM | thanks | 06:27 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: i've told you what my setup is, and told you YMMV. You can try it my way, or you can try it the proper way with builtin enabled and installed disabled. After that, you may need to research more | 06:27 |
| Ben64 | GinTonicool: probably the pepper one you disabled, it comes with chrome and is the most updated version | 06:27 |
| DJHenjin | in /tmp what are the sess_ long string of numbers files? | 06:29 |
| GinTonicool | Ben64 , what it the pepper one , YMMV? i need this plugin ? | 06:30 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: Your mileage May Vary - means it works for me but might not work for you. | 06:30 |
| GinTonicool | maybe | 06:31 |
| Eremes | hello guys how do I check my home folder is encrypted or not ? I can't remember wether xubuntu 12.0 gives encryption option on install | 06:31 |
| GinTonicool | somsip ,are you using adobe flash player ,or thers ? | 06:31 |
| Ben64 | Eremes: df and/or mount | 06:32 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: told you already | 06:32 |
| Eremes | I can remember after installed xubuntu asked me to write down a passpharse for unlocking something | 06:32 |
| GinTonicool | somsip, but i can not find the plugin YMMV in Wev Store | 06:33 |
| somsip_ | GinTonicool: I can't help you anymore. Sorry. | 06:33 |
| guntbert_ | Eremes: that seems to have been after choosing to encrypt your homedir | 06:33 |
| dr_willis_ | YMMV is not a plugin | 06:33 |
| nitin__ | hello everyone.. what are the settings to enable ubuntu system to connect from other system by ssh... ?? | 06:33 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | is there a gmail app or something that works with push, so i get notify with out having to fetch every 30 sec or what ever? | 06:33 |
| GinTonicool | somsip ,thank you still , a lot | 06:34 |
| dr_willis_ | nitin__: instgall the openssh server... and let them connect.. | 06:34 |
| Eremes | Ben64: and what am I looking for ? df or mount command did not tell me about encryption ? | 06:34 |
| dr_willis_ | Roy_Newbie_13-04: there may be some gmail INDICATOR-APPLETS that do that in the repos.. | 06:34 |
| Ben64 | Eremes: then pastebin them | 06:34 |
| nitin__ | dr_willis_, i have installed it | 06:34 |
| Eremes | guntbert_: still dont know how to make sure my home folder is encrypt or not | 06:34 |
| dr_willis_ | nitin__: so test it 'ssh ip.of.the.server' | 06:35 |
| nitin__ | on ssh message is permission denied | 06:35 |
| dr_willis_ | nitin__: how are you using ssh exactly? | 06:36 |
| guntbert_ | nitin__: 1st test: *on* the server: shh localhost | 06:36 |
| nitin__ | ssh system_name@ip | 06:36 |
| edenist | hey | 06:36 |
| dr_willis_ | systemname? err.. use yoru users name | 06:36 |
| nitin__ | guntbert_, how to on the server..?? | 06:36 |
| mong | yeah, should be user@host | 06:36 |
| jwdeaver | Hey, have a quick ubuntu install question for anyone that might have an answer. | 06:37 |
| nitin__ | user and system name is same | 06:37 |
| guntbert_ | nitin__: are you logged in on the server? Then just type shh localhost | 06:37 |
| jwdeaver | shh localhost | 06:37 |
| bpietro | :ask | 06:37 |
| Eremes | Ben64: http://pastebin.com/MNn9pcxv | 06:37 |
| jwdeaver | lol | 06:37 |
| mong | that just tells the localhost to keep quiet | 06:38 |
| edenist | would anyone happen to know if it is a way to let a binary ignore a library before launching it with a bash script? | 06:38 |
| GinTonicool | when i run chrome ,it show 'could not load Shockwave Flash' | 06:38 |
| guntbert_ | mong: please don't - this is a support channel | 06:39 |
| Ben64 | Eremes: and df? | 06:39 |
| edenist | ie: i've got a bash script which eventually runs a binary.... however when I have the i386 version of libtxc_dxtn_s2tc installed, it wont launch | 06:39 |
| edenist | only way to launch it is to uninstall the package [which of course means other programs wont run].... | 06:40 |
| DJHenjin | stupid question, but i cannot apt-get remove nagios, says cirtual packages cant be removed, how the heck do i uninstall it then? | 06:40 |
| edenist | was wondering if there was a way to either disable the library, or just tell the binary to ignore it? | 06:40 |
| Eremes | Ben64:http://pastebin.com/BMS22UmF | 06:40 |
| Eremes | Ben64: how can u tell is encrypted enabled or not ? | 06:41 |
| moocow2024 | I am trying to install 12.04.2 to a RAID 0 drive that has only one partition for windows 7 utilizing half the available space, with the other half unpartitioned. When I attempt to install ubuntu, I cannot get the installer to detect my raid 0 drive. I have tried unplugging my other hdds, but haven't had any luck yet. Any ideas? | 06:41 |
| kvothetech | edenist: what program | 06:41 |
| Ben64 | Eremes: doesn't appear its encrypted, but it still may be | 06:42 |
| dopie | anyone have an idea why this pops up | 06:42 |
| dopie | https://gist.github.com/anonymous/5597338 | 06:42 |
| ajith | does any one knows about ltsp ubuntu clusters | 06:42 |
| kvothetech | edenist: if it's a parameter for the program you could always use that ..or chroot your32 bit libraryies seperately from your pure 64 bit install... | 06:42 |
| kvothetech | ajith: out of 1500 people here no nobody knows | 06:42 |
| bpietro | edenist: disable temporarily is easy: mv libtxc_dxtn_s2tc any_name_of_your_choice | 06:42 |
| guntbert_ | DJHenjin: try to remove nagios3 | 06:43 |
| Eremes | Ben64: I remember correctly after installed xubuntu, the system gave me a passphrase, but can't remember what its for | 06:43 |
| kvothetech | Eremes: your hard drive luks? boot loader? | 06:43 |
| kvothetech | Eremes: your user? | 06:44 |
| DJHenjin | guntbert_: not installed so not removed, But i know for a fact i have some form of nagios installed,... could have been from source | 06:44 |
| guntbert_ | DJHenjin: you will need to do apt-get auto-remove afterwards | 06:44 |
| Eremes | kvothetech: I just installed it, so dont really understand about luks or boot looader , Im root | 06:44 |
| DJHenjin | guntbert_: It says nagios3 is not installed so is not removed | 06:45 |
| guntbert_ | DJHenjin: when installing from source you circumvent the packaging system, so you need to uninstall the program the same way | 06:45 |
| Ben64 | Eremes: you shouldn't be logged in as root | 06:45 |
| kvothetech | Eremes: i'd make a regular user to startwith then | 06:45 |
| edenist | ok thanks guys, will give those suggestions a go | 06:45 |
| Eremes | Ben64: sorry I mean I am a regular user with root access | 06:45 |
| kvothetech | Eremes: don't run x as root if you're in a tty use root all you want. | 06:45 |
| Eremes | kvothetech: thats I am now | 06:45 |

| dr_willis_ | Eremes: is one way :) but i doubt if its the best way | 06:47 |
| Eremes | Ben64: nothing happen with that command no list | 06:48 |
| Eremes | dr_willis_: will try | 06:49 |
| moocow2024 | I have an install RAID related question if anyone has a few moments | 06:53 |
| cpanda | my ext4 drive is full, and even after deleting over 100mb of files it just won't free up space, df always reports 0 blocks available. I already ran fsck -f on it which says everything is fine | 06:55 |
| Ben64 | cpanda: you should not fsck a mounted filesystem, and 100MB is not very much at all | 06:55 |
| DJHenjin | in ubuntu 12.04 server, are the only crontab files in /etc/cron.d | 06:56 |
| cpanda | it wasnt mounted, i heeded the warning. 100mb would be enough for me and is certainly >0 blocks free. df also reports less blocks used than available, but always 0 blocks free | 06:57 |
| Ben64 | cpanda: is it not the partition ubuntu is on? | 06:58 |
| cpanda | yes it is | 06:58 |
| reetika | reetika_1983 reetika7 | 06:58 |
| Ben64 | cpanda: then how did you run fsck? | 06:58 |
| cpanda | gparted | 06:58 |
| cpanda | uh.. i mean partedmagic live cd | 06:58 |
| Ben64 | ok, well you're still out of space then | 06:59 |
| Ben64 | try bleachbit | 06:59 |
| cpanda | i already deleted stuff, i just need the drive/ext4 to report it as usable. i don't think i could run bleachbit, as with 0 bytes free i cant log into x | 07:00 |
| Ben64 | delete more stuff | 07:00 |
| reetika | reetika_linux | 07:01 |
| === reetika is now known as reetika_linux | ||
| dr_willis_ | you can login to the console with 0 bytes free | 07:01 |
| dr_willis_ | or should be able to at least | 07:01 |
| cpanda | yes i'm here via console | 07:01 |
| dr_willis_ | i have seen where log files go crazy and write faster then people can delete stuff. ;) | 07:02 |
| dr_willis_ | if theres nothing critical on the system you could start by removeing all the old log files | 07:02 |
| cpanda | yes i know, but the 0 blocks free didnt change after deleting stuff while not using the drive as a system drive | 07:03 |
| dr_willis_ | that is weird | 07:03 |
| Ben64 | could still be in the reserved blocks | 07:03 |
| dr_willis_ | but 5% is reserved for root.. so its possivble its showing what the user can use.. | 07:03 |
| dr_willis_ | tune2fs can tweak that reserved % | 07:03 |
| DJHenjin | for fricks sakes, ive been trying to uninstall cacti, but i cannot find the cron that its poller is set to run in | 07:03 |
| Eremes | dr_willis_: Im on live CD now, I can browse and see the filename, but I can't open a folder, permission denied, does it mean my folder is encrypted ? | 07:04 |
| cpanda | would df as root show it as free? | 07:04 |
| Ben64 | Eremes: you can see the files in your home directory? | 07:04 |
| dr_willis_ | Eremes: what files are on the home/yourusername directory ? | 07:04 |
| Eremes | Ben64: yes I can see all my files there | 07:04 |
| dr_willis_ | then you are not encrypted.. | 07:04 |
| Eremes | Ben64: I can see my file config.rar | 07:05 |
| Ben64 | the doctor is right | 07:05 |
| Eremes | dr_willis_: ok | 07:05 |
| dr_willis_ | you see Desktop, and Docs, and Videos and so forth as well? | 07:05 |
| Eremes | dr_willis_: yes | 07:05 |
| dr_willis_ | then you are not encrypted.. | 07:05 |
| dr_willis_ | if you were.. you would only see like 3 files | 07:05 |
| cpanda | dr_willis_ thanks, setting it to 1% shows free blocks again :) and df as root didnt show it before | 07:05 |
| Eremes | hmm xubuntu does not give any option to encrypt while install it | 07:06 |
| dr_willis_ | cpanda: id start with cleaning out logs and the var/cache/apt stuff ;) | 07:06 |
| dr_willis_ | Eremes: i see way to many issues in here with encrypted homes.. | 07:06 |
| Eremes | dr_willis_: maybe thats why xubuntu does not offer home encryption as installation option | 07:07 |
| dr_willis_ | i dont use xubuntu. so no idea how its installer differs.. i thought i saw the option on the Lubuntu installer | 07:08 |
| qweads | which one of cfdisk, fdisk and parted should i use to partition a harddisk? | 07:08 |
| qweads | what are the differences | 07:08 |
| dr_willis_ | qweads: parted or cfdisk.. fdisk is getting obsolete | 07:08 |
| dr_willis_ | qweads: or gparted for a nice gui | 07:08 |
| Dewi | shouldn't really be any different | 07:08 |
| Dewi | you can always install with ubuntu and then switch | 07:09 |
| dr_willis_ | fdisk has issues with the bigger/gpt/stuff i recall.. | 07:09 |
| cpanda | yes, removing apt cache gave me 5%, thanks again :) | 07:09 |
| Ben64 | you should really have more free space than that | 07:09 |
| Eremes | ok gtg , thanks guys for helping me especially Ben64 & dr_willis_ | 07:09 |
| Ben64 | everything gets fragmented with low free space | 07:09 |
| qweads | Dewi: what are you talking about? | 07:10 |
| Dewi | qweads: being surprised the xubuntu installer would have any differences for storage | 07:10 |
| cpanda | ben64 sure, if i could downsize the ntfs partition more, but that wasnt possible. the /-drive is a little over 2gb | 07:10 |
| aqilla | hai | 07:12 |
| qweads | Dewi: i think you are mistaking me for someone else | 07:13 |
| Dewi | qweads: I didn't say anything to you until you asked... | 07:13 |
| qweads | Dewi: perhaps you guys should stop making it look like im working with you all the time .. planting "evidence" | 07:14 |

| DJHenjin | so apparently there is NO crontab for ANY user at all on my server, yet there are still scheduled tasks running like cacti's poller, and zabbix's poller as well, how the hell is that possible | 07:16 |
| nevyn | DJHenjin: /etc/cron.daily | 07:16 |
| Dewi | DJHenjin: the system crontabs | 07:16 |
| Dewi | DJHenjin: also, continuously running services? | 07:16 |
| DJHenjin | nevyn: /etc/cron.daily doesnt have the cronjobs i am looking for, | 07:17 |
| Dewi | DJHenjin: ps -A | grep -i zabbix | 07:18 |
| DJHenjin | and Dewi, the software I am looking to remove uses cron for its scheduling apparently, but i cant find any cronjobs at all | 07:18 |
| Dewi | hmm ok | 07:18 |
| DJHenjin | Dewi, i dont want to remove zabbix, | 07:18 |
| DJHenjin | i want to remove cacti, and nagios | 07:18 |
| Dewi | DJHenjin: yeah I'm just describing one way to spot a possible continuously running daemon process | 07:19 |
| Dewi | DJHenjin: I don't actually know the ins and outs of zabbix or cacti | 07:19 |
| DJHenjin | Dewi, did that for both nagios and cacti and nothing there. | 07:19 |
| DJHenjin | i DONT want to remove zabbix. i want to remove Nagios and Cacti, | 07:19 |
| DJHenjin | i have gotten most of Cacti's files, but i keep getting emails saying that one of cacti's files is missing blah blah blah. | 07:20 |

| SparkySparkyBoom | l057c0d3r: why chromium? | 07:35 |
| SparkySparkyBoom | why not the chrome release? | 07:35 |
| ghyth | I bought Del Inspiron 15Z - I installed ubuntu but facing issues evertime i updated the system, and the battery led is up even if the batter is full | 07:35 |
| ghyth | which may batter life might affected | 07:36 |
| sharpshooter | SparkySparkyBoom: open-source !! | 07:36 |
| l057c0d3r | agree sharpshooter | 07:36 |
| SparkySparkyBoom | it has libs that are proprietary though | 07:36 |
| ghyth | and when i reboot it stuck in boot stage | 07:36 |
| SparkySparkyBoom | pretty much defeats the purpose of OSS | 07:36 |
| l057c0d3r | but better yet.. why not | 07:36 |
| SparkySparkyBoom | chrome is easier to download and install | 07:37 |
| SparkySparkyBoom | it has stable updates | 07:37 |
| rigo | hi | 07:37 |
| l057c0d3r | ghyth, ?? what was that... | 07:37 |
| l057c0d3r | SparkySparkyBoom, hmm sudo apt-get install chromium-browser | 07:37 |
| ghyth | ubuntu 12.04 | 07:37 |
| l057c0d3r | it updates from time to time.. has always worked.... | 07:37 |
| rigo | i know that i'm talking about a mounted ftp site, but is there any chance for me to set up the mounted ftp site to my proftpd as default root? | 07:37 |
| l057c0d3r | never thought about switching to chorm.... | 07:37 |
| SparkySparkyBoom | it's in the ubuntu repos? | 07:38 |
| SparkySparkyBoom | oh | 07:38 |
| SparkySparkyBoom | yea | 07:38 |
| sharpshooter | SparkySparkyBoom: sure ! | 07:38 |
| l057c0d3r | ghyth, has it worked before.. or does it hang at boot after fresh install | 07:39 |
| sharpshooter | SparkySparkyBoom: if you want flash player take a look at this http://www.webupd8.org/2013/04/install-pepper-flash-player-for.html | 07:39 |
| Akiva-Mobile | Hey I was installing ubuntu alongside windows 7, and while I was waiting, I decided to watch a youtube. The youtube crashed, my screen is locked, and I don't know what to do. Any ideas? | 07:39 |
| rigo | anyone? something? :) | 07:40 |
| SparkySparkyBoom | meh | 07:40 |
| ghyth | l057c0d3r, yes, even when i reinstalll it one time it works another time it didn't | 07:40 |
| Akiva-Mobile | the only thing I can do it seems is goto alt+ctrl f1 etc | 07:40 |
| SparkySparkyBoom | chrome is better | 07:40 |
| l057c0d3r | Akiva-Mobile, so alt f7 just takes u to a blank screen i take it | 07:41 |
| Akiva-Mobile | l057c0d3r: Yes, | 07:41 |
| l057c0d3r | u were using firefox correct | 07:42 |
| Akiva-Mobile | Yes | 07:42 |
| l057c0d3r | u could try loging in to tty1 and doing a sudo killall firefox | 07:42 |
| dr_willis_ | hmm.. live cd dosent have flash.. guess it was a html5 video? | 07:42 |
| Akiva-Mobile | okay I'll try | 07:42 |
| l057c0d3r | and trying to go back to f7 | 07:42 |
| l057c0d3r | not sure if that will help though | 07:42 |
| l057c0d3r | dr_willis_, i didnt think about that actually | 07:42 |
| ghyth | l057c0d3r, the funy thing now it's working - after I restart the computer it will stop | 07:43 |
| ghyth | restart it one more time - it will work | 07:43 |
| Akiva-Mobile | dr_willis_: I installed it | 07:43 |
| l057c0d3r | ghyth, that is strange.. im looking it up atm | 07:43 |
| dr_willis_ | oh the humanity! ;) | 07:43 |
| l057c0d3r | dr_willis_, if he restarts the unity desktop from tty1.. will the install process still be running.... | 07:43 |
| dr_willis_ | Akiva-Mobile: well if you are lucky killing firefox - might get the desktop back | 07:44 |
| l057c0d3r | and more importantly visible | 07:44 |
| Akiva-Mobile | dr_willis_: not lucky | 07:44 |
| Akiva-Mobile | dr_willis_: still blank | 07:44 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | im having ubuntu 13.04 host a smb share.. the iphone with app connects to it, Files from the launcher works, but the wii wont! any advice, and the wii is online | 07:44 |
| dr_willis_ | Roy_Newbie_13-04: so basically everything else on the lan sees the share except the wii? | 07:45 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | yes | 07:45 |
| Akiva-Mobile | killing firefox didnt work | 07:45 |
| l057c0d3r | ghyth, are u booting in uefi mode or standard mode from the bios | 07:46 |
| l057c0d3r | u said windows 7 so i would say no uefi | 07:46 |
| Ben64 | uh.... the wii doesn't connect to samba | 07:46 |
| Akiva-Mobile | my main concern is whether the disk partitioner is still working. I don't wan't to interupt my installation and lose 2 terrabytes of data | 07:46 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | ill try a restart brb | 07:46 |
| dr_willis_ | Roy_Newbie_13-04: you could check the samba logs and /var/log/auth* log files and see if the samba server gives a reason to refuse the connection. or if its even seeing the connections at all. | 07:46 |
| l057c0d3r | Akiva-Mobile, well i guess u could use top from tty1 and see how active the install process is... | 07:47 |
| Akiva-Mobile | ah | 07:47 |
| l057c0d3r | if it goes dead.... most likely it is done... | 07:47 |
| Akiva-Mobile | I fixed it | 07:47 |
| Akiva-Mobile | sudo killall plugin-container | 07:47 |
| Akiva-Mobile | thanks guys | 07:47 |

| l057c0d3r | lol oh yeah firefox uses plugin-container.. didnt think about that | 07:47 |
| Akiva-Mobile | dr_willis_: is gnash good ? | 07:47 |
| l057c0d3r | does chromium? | 07:48 |
| dr_willis_ | Akiva-Mobile: never used it. | 07:48 |
| l057c0d3r | Akiva-Mobile, finance app | 07:48 |
| l057c0d3r | hmm i think kmymoney is nice | 07:48 |
| dr_willis_ | if i want a flash video. o tend to use flash-download apps.. | 07:48 |
| dr_willis_ | i think he means the open sourced flash thang | 07:48 |
| l057c0d3r | oh | 07:48 |
| l057c0d3r | maybe i am just lucky.. but adobe flash has always done me good... | 07:49 |
| Akiva-Mobile | heh | 07:49 |
| dr_willis_ | i rarely have flash issues.. but i have older pcs. | 07:49 |
| l057c0d3r | but as dr_willis_ i do use fetchers most the time and watch in vlc.. | 07:49 |
| dr_willis_ | other then the smurf-people issue.. a few months back.. ;) | 07:49 |
| Akiva-Mobile | it is a live cd so :P | 07:50 |
| dr_willis_ | there was a extension for firefox that made flash play in vlc in the browser.. but its been discontinued | 07:50 |

| dr_willis_ | any other use for flash -- then just playing vidoes... i imagine should be outlawed. ;) silly idiotic sites with 5+ flash animation banner ads... | 07:51 |
| dr_willis_ | then they ALL start playing sound at the same time... | 07:51 |
| ghyth | l057c0d3r, UEFI | 07:51 |
| l057c0d3r | dr_willis_, ad block pro :-) | 07:51 |
| Phryq | hey, my sound doesn't work, either from speakers or headphone jack. (The jack physically broke earlier, so I think it's unrelated | 07:51 |
| l057c0d3r | oh and flashblock plugin | 07:51 |
| dr_willis_ | bbl | 07:52 |
| Phryq | anyone able to help? | 07:52 |
| njillings | Phryq> give us a bit more than 'it won't work' Whats your version, whats your card and what have you already tried | 07:52 |
| l057c0d3r | Phryq, in term type alsamixer.... | 07:52 |
| l057c0d3r | go through and make sure everything is turned up and not muted | 07:53 |
| l057c0d3r | may have to use f6 to switch between cards if you have an hdmi port ext | 07:53 |
| ghyth | l057c0d3r, did you see a case such as mine !? | 07:53 |
| l057c0d3r | yeah.... but they were all trying to boot in uefi mode | 07:53 |
| ghyth | l057c0d3r, me too it's uefi mode | 07:54 |
| Phryq | thanks guys. AlsaMixer v1.0.25, Card: HDA Intel PCH, Chip: Intel PantherPoint HDMI | 07:55 |
| ghyth | l057c0d3r, but can't find why it happened | 07:55 |
| Kartagis | !pin | 07:55 |
| ubottu | pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 07:55 |
| l057c0d3r | is uefi mode needed.. maybe disable it in bios.. | 07:56 |
| l057c0d3r | i dont believe windows 7 needs it like 8 | 07:56 |
| njillings | Phryq> have you checked in Alsa mixer the routing? On one of the tabs there should be a dropdown explaining your card config. If you select Digital Out it should go to HDMI, any of the Analogue outs should then use your normal soundcard speakers / headphones | 07:56 |
| l057c0d3r | maybe check to make sure legacy mode is enabled in the bios/csm | 07:57 |
| vic | how do i check python version installed/ | 07:57 |
| ghyth | l057c0d3r, I enabled it and then disabled it and try in both ways but it's the same | 07:57 |
| ghyth | :( | 07:57 |
| DJHenjin | have you tried [ython --help | 07:57 |
| Phryq | Master dB gain was actually on mute (I'd never seen this ALSA mixer before). I've unmuted it, but still no sound. Should I restart my computer? Sorry I'm very nube. | 07:57 |
| l057c0d3r | vic python --version | 07:57 |
| njillings | python --version | 07:57 |
| njillings | Phryq> have you followed my last? Make sure the ALSA is sending audio to the right place | 07:58 |
| Phryq | ok guys, I'm really dumb. It was actually just a mute thing. Thanks so much | 07:58 |
| vic | thanks. | 07:58 |
| Phryq | I didn't know this mixer existed, so I don't know how I muted it this was. It was the PCM being muted. | 07:59 |
| === Lebby1 is now known as Lebby | ||
| l057c0d3r | Phryq, glad to help :-p | 07:59 |
| vic | i have a file unlocker.py how do i execute it? | 07:59 |
| njillings | phryq> no probs | 07:59 |
| Phryq | Can I use the ALSA mixer to do effects like compression on any audio outputed from my computer? that would be really cool | 07:59 |
| l057c0d3r | i don't believe so | 08:00 |
| l057c0d3r | ghyth goes your windows 7 boot with ueif tunred off and legacy on... | 08:01 |
| njillings | Phryq> not really, better to use JACK as that supports routing and DSP. Not sure you want to do that anyway though, will not sound good on 90% of stuff | 08:01 |
| l057c0d3r | if so.. maybe try turing legacy on and ueif off.. and reinstalling ubuntu | 08:01 |

| Phryq | I'm thinking how I watch a lot of Noam Chomsky lectures and the audio is so terrible, even though what he says is so brilliant | 08:02 |
| ghyth | l057c0d3r, no windows anymore, I'm a linux guy - do I need to reinstall it !!!! | 08:02 |
| vic | can somebody help me execute a python script | 08:02 |
| === memand is now known as Guest93181 | ||
| Phryq | I know what I'm doing with audio (in windows at least) it's just linux I don't know. | 08:02 |
| ghyth | l057c0d3r, and the external speakers is not working too | 08:02 |
| l057c0d3r | well as long as there is nothing u need to back up... i would try a reinstall with ueif off an legacy on... | 08:03 |
| njillings | Phryq> Play them in VLC, it has built in audio DSP functions I think | 08:03 |
| l057c0d3r | and for the speaker it may be a mute issue like the other persons issue | 08:03 |
| Phryq | ah, I'll try that | 08:03 |
| l057c0d3r | alsamixer in term might help | 08:03 |
| njillings | Phryq> you go to Tools, Effects, Audio Effects and it has a compressor, GEQ and a load of video effects | 08:04 |
| A1Recon | Can the archive manager open rar files? | 08:04 |
| l057c0d3r | yes vlc is amazing | 08:04 |
| l057c0d3r | A1Recon, i believe so.. u may need to install unrar though.... | 08:04 |
| Oasa | can anyone help me in finding free vpn with ubuntu like hotspotshield or hideman | 08:05 |
| l057c0d3r | sudo apt-get install unrar | 08:05 |
| Phryq | is there any way to add plugins to it? like VSTs? | 08:05 |
| njillings | Phryq> not VSTs, you can write C/C++ code for it. Read the VLC website. I haven't done any but it is possible | 08:05 |
| rigo | i did the mapping with the curlftpfs to /mnt/ftp if i set up in proftpd as default root the /mnt the ftp directory is not visible. | 08:05 |

| A1Recon | Is there some other way to open rar files in ubuntu? | 08:07 |
| Oasa | free vpn in ubuntu? | 08:07 |
| Ben64 | Oasa: openvpn | 08:08 |
| l057c0d3r | A1Recon, what said that | 08:08 |
| njillings | Oasa> openVPN | 08:08 |

| Hounddog | good morning folks... having a slight problem with the installation... keyboard/mouse are not working... infact i think my usb ports are not working at all | 08:10 |
| rigo | is there any chance for me to recevie an answer from someone? :) | 08:10 |
| Akiva-Mobile | mmmmm, I just installed ubuntu alongside windows, but the grub is not coming up. It's just a windows repair screen | 08:10 |
| AlbertoM | Hey i try i search and i can not configre a email account on tunderbird is @outlook.com | 08:10 |

| A1Recon | Kartagis: command for installing rar and unrar? "sudo apt-get install rar"? | 08:11 |
| njillings | rigo> not sure, but are you sure your user has permissions to do mounting? generally only roots | 08:11 |
| Akiva-Mobile | Kartagis: I am dealing with UEFI | 08:11 |
| Kartagis | A1Recon: yes | 08:11 |
| Akiva-Mobile | and that doesnt answer my question. Grub does not appear. I can't boot ubuntu | 08:11 |
| Hounddog | Akiva-Mobile: you isntalling next to windows 8? | 08:11 |
| Kartagis | !uefi | 08:11 |
| ubottu | UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI | 08:11 |
| rigo | i used the command with xbmc user and sudo, after that i gave write permissions to all | 08:11 |
| Akiva-Mobile | Hounddog: windows 7 | 08:11 |
| Hounddog | ahh i am just installing beside 8 | 08:11 |
| njillings | rigo: sorry, not something I know much about | 08:12 |
| l057c0d3r | hmm ok so unrar is the non free version | 08:12 |
| l057c0d3r | but heh thats what i was saying to do | 08:12 |
| Kartagis | Akiva-Mobile: then follow !grub. it should help you | 08:12 |

| rigo | but its not an unpossible thing right? so i would like to mount an ftp site to my local system, and give the path as the root of the local proftpd server. (the site is a porn site which i have to develope. and the proxy here where i work does not allows such connections :D) | 08:13 |
| Hounddog | as i am installing next to windows 8 once i get ubuntu running in try mode i can safely install it right? | 08:14 |
| Ben64 | rigo: sounds like a bad idea | 08:14 |
| njillings | rigo> theoretically it should do, I mount SFTP using the inbuilt SFTP but generally it is only stable when I am inside the network. Better to just download and put a local web server on your machine to develop it, and then push the updates | 08:15 |
| vic | how do i execute a python script (unlocker.py) | 08:15 |
| njillings | vic> in terminal -- python unlocker.py | 08:16 |
| olegb | vic: or chmod +x unlocker.py | 08:16 |
| njillings | vic: assuming you have cd'd to the right directory already | 08:16 |
| rigo | its another unusable filesystem right? | 08:16 |
| vic | njilings: how do i have the cd'd to the right directory | 08:17 |
| olegb | vic: that would make the script executable | 08:17 |
| Hounddog | so... here is a challenge... how to check why usb is not working without keyboard and mouse.... | 08:18 |
| njillings | vic: in terminal, it defaults to your local directory. If your directory is stored in your documents folder, you can either do 'python Documents/unlocker.py' or you can cd Documents and then you can just run 'python unlocker.py' | 08:18 |
| njillings | !cd | 08:18 |
| vic | njillings:chmod: cannot access ‘unlocker.py’: No such file or directory | 08:19 |
| njillings | vic> where is your file stored? | 08:19 |
| vic | njillings: downloads | 08:20 |
| rigo | what would be your opinion? | 08:20 |
| njillings | vic> ok, then in terminal type in cd Downloads. Type in ls and you should see the file listed. Re-run your chmod command (or just run python unlocker.py) | 08:21 |
| Ben64 | vic: you should be careful running downloaded scripts | 08:21 |
| l057c0d3r | Ben64, the good thing about scripts.. if you know the language u can look at it and see what it does | 08:21 |
| njillings | Ben64> true, but I'm assuming that vic knows where the script came from and what it does | 08:21 |
| rigo | nevermind i have access to my homeserver via vnc it's just simply faster to develope from the local pc | 08:22 |
| Ben64 | njillings: but doesn't know how to run a python script? :S | 08:22 |
| vic | Ben64: the code came from freecode.com | 08:22 |
| njillings | Ben64> Like I said, I'm not assuming anything. I provide advice on solving a problem, not giving people life lessons in computing | 08:23 |
| vic | thanks | njillings | 08:23 |
| olegb | Hounddog: you could try and ssh to the box - assuming that you have a sshd running | 08:23 |
| Ben64 | i don't just let people jump off cliffs | 08:24 |
| njillings | rigo: by mounting your FTP on your local directrory, you aren't developing locally, you are simply providing a short-cut to the server. By developing locally and uploading to the server, that would be local development | 08:24 |
| rigo | you misunderstand em | 08:24 |

| autra | I'm looking at dmesg and var/boot.log but... | 08:29 |
| vic | how do i identify active usb ports | 08:29 |
| autra | Ben64, yes, | 08:29 |
| njillings | autra: on GRUB loader, you should have an option to go into advanced options (I think) and there it should give a list of kernels, select the last that worked | 08:29 |
| manish__ | ok bazhang thanks a lot.. | 08:29 |
| Ben64 | autra: try an older kernel | 08:30 |
| autra | so I tested the previeous kernel already njillings | 08:30 |
| autra | and it worked | 08:30 |
| autra | so I know the problem is with the last kernel | 08:30 |
| autra | I had problem shutting down on the previous kernel though | 08:30 |
| autra | but at least it is booting | 08:31 |
| autra | I wanted to diagnose that | 08:31 |
| njillings | njillings: hmm, not sure I can identify the problem for you. Maybe someone else here can, otherwise have you researched on the Ubuntu Forum and for any known bugs on Launchpad? | 08:31 |
| autra | njillings, I will, thanks | 08:32 |

| xlaire | what difference and how to login as a root | 08:40 |
| Ben64 | !root | xlaire | 08:41 |
| ubottu | xlaire: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 08:41 |
| bazhang | xlaire, dont login a s root. there is simply no need | 08:42 |
| xlaire | ok so i can't kill process under root? | 08:42 |
| ActionParsnip | xlaire: some processes run as root | 08:42 |
| ActionParsnip | xlaire: sure, you can use sudo kill nickserv PID | 08:42 |
| ActionParsnip | oops | 08:42 |
| ActionParsnip | sudo kill PID | 08:42 |
| xlaire | i will try to kill one process | 08:43 |
| rajumoh | to become root use $sudo su root | 08:43 |
| Ben64 | don't do that ^ | 08:43 |
| ActionParsnip | rajumoh: sudo -i is a little better | 08:43 |
| bazhang | rajumoh, thats not correct | 08:43 |
| rajumoh | bazhang: with all due respect it works | 08:43 |
| Ben64 | not correctly it doesn't | 08:43 |
| youknowme | so many guys | 08:44 |
| Ben64 | its actually less typing to do it the right way, so why not? | 08:44 |
| bazhang | rajumoh, sudo -i is the correct command. yours does not. Please NEVER recommend that here, thanks. | 08:44 |
| xlaire | ok please don't argue, then what is zombie means? | 08:44 |
| ActionParsnip | rajumoh: yes it may work but the environment (which you don't immediately see) isn't right | 08:45 |
| ActionParsnip | rajumoh: sudo for GUI apps 'works' too, but is also not right | 08:45 |

| ActionParsnip | rajumoh: or do you mean gui apps with sudo and not gksudo? | 08:47 |
| rajumoh | ActionParsnip: with gui apps i use kdesudo or gksudo that was not the problem. with terminal i have been using sudo su root for so long havent actually ever met a situation where there was problems | 08:49 |
| ActionParsnip | rajumoh: good, gk/kdesudo is important :D | 08:50 |
| cpanda | i tend to use sudo bash, is that wrong too? | 08:50 |
| Ben64 | yeah | 08:50 |
| Ben64 | dunno why you guys need a root shell so often, but the correct way is sudo -i | 08:51 |
| xlaire | i'm intrigue with the link given to me, i saw a code c++, is there a msdn for ubuntu and if write a code, does it required editor / compiler to run my code? | 08:51 |
| rajumoh | ActionParsnip: frankly i typed in the command to become root, for fun sake , it always seems to get this room abuzz. but sudo -i was a bit new to me :-p | 08:51 |
| Ben64 | xlaire: is there a microsoft dev network for ubuntu? ha. no. | 08:52 |

| dr_willis | !ppa-purge | 09:01 |
| ubottu | To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 09:01 |
| dr_willis | you can apt-get remove packagename if you know the packagename Roy_Newbie_13-04 | 09:02 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | what was the ppa so i can get rid of that | 09:03 |
| dr_willis | you added the ppa.. so i have no idea | 09:03 |

| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | someone here game the ppa connamd to me | 09:03 |
| dr_willis | look at your hiatory buffer, if you ysed the cli to add it.. or look in /etc/sources.list.d | 09:05 |

| Jonathan_ | ? | 09:10 |
| dr_willis | history | grep pattern Roy_Newbie_13-04 can also work | 09:10 |

| dr_willis | and some neat new features.. (just a few) | 09:10 |
| Ben64 | Jonathan_: 12.04 is lts, which means its supported until 2017. 13.04 is not, and requires an update to 13.10 by January 2014 | 09:11 |
| dr_willis | if LTS is imporntant to you.. use LTS | 09:11 |
| bazhang | http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2012-10/msg00149.html arpit | 09:11 |
| dr_willis | if newer stuff is imporntant.. use the latest release | 09:11 |

| sonofzeus | Hey there | 09:15 |
| sonofzeus | Does anyone here use gnumeric? | 09:15 |
| kvothetech | sonofzeus: nope | 09:15 |
| A1Recon | how to update GPU drivers? I am not running the proprietary drivers. | 09:15 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: hi sorry left earlier id you get the raid/lvm issue you had sorted | 09:15 |
| kvothetech | A1Recon: apt-get update apt-get upgrade | 09:16 |
| dr_willis | kvothetech: wasent me. ;) was some other guy | 09:16 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: sorry been drinking don't do that much...thought it was you sorry | 09:16 |
| chesty | hey, I installed linux-image-generic-lts-raring to work around a kvm bug but the nvidia card is a little unhappy, there's no xserver-xorg-video-nouveau-lts-raring package. does anyone know how to look up why a package is missing? | 09:16 |
| dr_willis | A1Recon: if you install the .run drivers package.. then thats what you have to keep on doing.. | 09:16 |
| dr_willis | A1Recon: if you are using drivers from the repos.. apt-get update, and apt-get upgrade pulls in any updates | 09:17 |
| kvothetech | chesty: hc, there's a package for nvidia but you have to compile it again since you changed kernels it has to rebuild the modules | 09:17 |
| kvothetech | chesty: unless you built them in which i don't think nvidia lets you | 09:18 |
| chesty | kvothetech: ok, but why is there a xserver-xorg-video-nouveau-lts-quantal but not a xserver-xorg-video-nouveau-lts-raring? | 09:18 |
| kvothetech | xserver-xorg-video-nouveau doesn't work ? | 09:19 |
| dr_willis | raring is not a 'lts' release perhaps? or is that what lts means in that nam | 09:19 |
| dr_willis | chesty: you are using a raring kernel in quantal? | 09:19 |
| kvothetech | chesty: because theres no reason to have seperate packages for nouveau that i can think of... | 09:19 |
| chesty | dr_willis: no, i'm on 12,04 lts with the raring lts kernel | 09:19 |
| A1Recon | dr_willis: Does Chromium update on its own?? | 09:20 |
| dr_willis | chesty: you may want to look into the updated kernel ppa's and perhaps the xswat ppa. for 12.04 instead of trying to force in a raring package | 09:20 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: chesty why do you need seperate novouie packages...it's all the same all it does is add the modules to your kernel. | 09:20 |
| dr_willis | A1Recon: againn.. if you insgtall stuff from the repos.. then they should update automatically | 09:21 |
| kvothetech | A1Recon: yes if you grabbed it from apt to begin with if not you can redl the source and recompile a new one at leisure | 09:21 |
| dr_willis | sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade (or perhaps sudo apt-get dist-upgrade) and you should be all updated | 09:21 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: i think you dropped as i answered something / asked one sec | 09:23 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: chesty why do you need seperate novouie packages...it's all the same all it does is add the modules to your kernel. | 09:23 |
| dr_willis | silly andchat client on android likes to craash on nick completion.. | 09:23 |
| chesty | dr_willis: i'm not forcing raring package, the *-lts-raring packages are in 12.04 lts repo | 09:24 |
| dr_willis | so it always crashes right in the middle of a concersation. ;) | 09:24 |
| dr_willis | chesty: so its from the backports repo? | 09:24 |
| chesty | dr_willis: i | 09:24 |
| chesty | dr_willis: i'm not sure. it's a standard 12.04 lts, and some quantal and raring packages are available | 09:24 |
| A1Recon | kvothetech: I installed it from the Ubuntu Software Center | 09:25 |
| dr_willis | that seems weird.. but i alwayas stick to the latest release. ;) | 09:25 |
| kvothetech | chesty: kvm doesn't work in lts release of ubuntu..that sounds like a pretty serious error | 09:25 |
| kvothetech | or is that just me | 09:25 |
| dr_willis | A1Recon: and the software center is a front end to the apt packageing system | 09:25 |
| penos_ | how to run ubuntu in debian? | 09:25 |
| kvothetech | A1Recon: which uses apt/dpkg. | 09:25 |
| dr_willis | penos_: run it in virtulbox | 09:26 |
| dr_willis | virtualbox | 09:26 |
| penos | hi | 09:26 |
| penos | virtual box is good | 09:26 |
| kvothetech | penos: kvm is pretty much already built in | 09:27 |
| chesty | kvothetech: it's a bug with this particular hardware, it works fine for 99% of people | 09:27 |
| A1Recon | dr_willis: So they should update on their own? | 09:27 |
| kvothetech | chesty: ah ok | 09:27 |
| kvothetech | A1Recon: yes...that's what we already said... | 09:27 |
| dr_willis | A1Recon: for the 4th time... YES | 09:27 |
| Rufus | hi | 09:27 |
| kvothetech | Rufus: hi | 09:28 |
| dr_willis | A1Recon: thats like a MAJOR point of using a packageing manager system like APT | 09:28 |
| kvothetech | hmm he ddidn't even ask a questien | 09:28 |
| MortimerCat | Please can somewhere explain updates, ie I am sticking with 12.04 LTS, does this mean my PHP version is stuck at 5.3.10? | 09:29 |
| MortimerCat | I mean if I just stick to the default repositories, obviously I could upgrade PHP by itself. | 09:29 |
| kvothetech | MortimerCat: if it's the one in the repo then for now yes | 09:29 |
| dr_willis | MortimerCat: unless theres some big reason.. ubuntu normally only updates versions of packages with the next release. | 09:29 |
| dr_willis | !latest | MortimerCat | 09:29 |
| ubottu | MortimerCat: Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, so "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 09:29 |
| A1Recon | dr_willis: kvothetech: Sorry still a novice on Ubuntu.... I am trying to learn....sometimes its just downright confusing... Thanks for your help.... | 09:30 |
| kvothetech | A1Recon: what's confusing.. | 09:30 |
| penos | how to run ms dos in linux? | 09:30 |
| penos | *in ubuntu | 09:30 |
| kvothetech | penos: again kvm/vbox | 09:30 |
| kvothetech | Rufus: wb | 09:30 |
| dr_willis | A1Recon: works basically like how steam, or your android market does ... the market app handles all the updates as needed... | 09:30 |
| llutz | !info dosbox | penos | 09:30 |
| ubottu | penos: dosbox (source: dosbox): x86 emulator with Tandy/Herc/CGA/EGA/VGA/SVGA graphics, sound and DOS. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.74-3 (raring), package size 822 kB, installed size 2505 kB | 09:30 |
| Rufus | thanks | 09:30 |
| kvothetech | penos: or that | 09:31 |
| A1Recon | kvothetech: So many softwares for ubuntu, (and I have been a Win7 user since Kindergarten) and all the ways to install them. Its confusing but I am learning... | 09:32 |
| dr_willis | freedos in vbox ;) | 09:32 |
| voxadam | Does anyone know of a command line program to rename MP3 files using the ID3 data that they are tagged with? | 09:32 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: what's vbox have kvm doesnt if you don't mind me asking | 09:32 |
| dr_willis | compared to all the confuseing things you have to do in windows.. :) | 09:32 |
| dr_willis | kvothetech: its kooler. :) then again.. its all i really use.. | 09:32 |
| dr_willis | so that makes it cooler. | 09:32 |
| kvothetech | voxadam: mediainfo shows all that info you could use that mv and grep ... | 09:32 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: lol i'm just asking cause far as i can tell it's more or less built in whereas vbox isnt | 09:33 |
| llutz | voxadam: http://superuser.com/questions/555401/linux-command-line-tool-to-batch-rename-mp3-files-based-on-id3-tag-info-or-give | 09:33 |
| dr_willis | voxadam: there are several mp3 renamer tools in the repos.. | 09:33 |
| voxadam | kvothetech: Thanks. I'll take a look at that. I'm sure it'll take me some time as I'm not a shell guru but it'll be a learning experience. | 09:33 |
| dr_willis | kvothetech: ive never really messed with kvm. but i tend to run vbox in windows - to run linux... | 09:33 |
| voxadam | dr_willis: Thanks. | 09:33 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: oh..you run windows not inux :( | 09:34 |
| dr_willis | or use vbox to test out live iso files | 09:34 |
| Fazer2 | hey, can I download library sources from package manager? (i.e. synaptic) | 09:34 |
| dr_willis | kvothetech: depds on which desk im at. ;) | 09:34 |
| Fazer2 | or from terminal | 09:34 |
| kvothetech | Fazer2: huh you can dl source only not install it | 09:34 |
| dr_willis | Fazer2: sudo apt-get build-dep packagename or theres some download source option i recall | 09:35 |
| dr_willis | Fazer2: depending on exactly what you want to do | 09:35 |
| dr_willis | !source | 09:35 |
| ubottu | You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html | 09:35 |
| llutz | apt-get source foo | 09:35 |
| voxadam | dr_willis: Thanks. I don't know why I didn't just search. It looks like id3ren does what I need. | 09:35 |
| Fazer2 | kvothetech: I want to look at Botan sources (not header files) | 09:35 |
| kvothetech | Fazer2: then dl the source git svn or the above.. | 09:36 |
| kvothetech | voxadam: it's ok a lot of people here haven't read he basic 'how to ask questions the smart way' doc... | 09:37 |
| Fazer2 | llutz: thanks | 09:37 |
| dr_willis | that build-dep option to apt - can save a lot of time if you are trying to recompile somthing. ;) | 09:39 |
| dr_willis | assuming it has an older version in the repos | 09:39 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: but that assumes apt knows what compile options you want... | 09:40 |
| kvothetech | or are using | 09:40 |
| schnitzel- | quick queestion. why is the latest 13.04 64bit image named sth with AMD? | 09:40 |
| schnitzel- | i have an intel but 64 bit?! | 09:40 |
| schnitzel- | or i am just stupid? | 09:40 |
| kvothetech | schnitzel-: because amd made the first 64 bit and you might be we dont know.. | 09:40 |
| schnitzel- | hehe i might. yes. | 09:41 |
| schnitzel- | sometimes i am. very. | 09:41 |
| kvothetech | schnitzel-: it's always been amd64 orx86_64 ... | 09:41 |
| llutz | schnitzel-: amd64 is fine if you don't have an itanium | 09:41 |
| schnitzel- | well. not the proud owner of a 64 bit system for long..so i wont know. | 09:41 |
| schnitzel- | but the name is not good anyways. just cause they did it first?! | 09:41 |
| schnitzel- | i downloaded the image. raged cause it "was the wrong". deleted it... | 09:42 |
| schnitzel- | well. now i am donlwoading it again lol | 09:42 |
| dr_willis | its been called that for.. like 5+ years? ;) | 09:42 |
| kvothetech | schnitzel-: intels version is entirely compatible.....i think amd allows bulldozer and intel allows hyperthreading... | 09:42 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: more like 10 now..2002/3 | 09:42 |
| dr_willis | intel licensed the 64bit extensions from AMD i belive is what the wiki pedia stuff says | 09:42 |
| dr_willis | kvothetech: NOW i feel old! get off my lawn! | 09:42 |
| schnitzel- | kk. so you would recommend to install the amd image for 64 if you have a 64 bit machine? and not the standard 32bit image? | 09:43 |
| llutz | schnitzel-: yes | 09:43 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: lol i'm an ancient 23 and i know that.. | 09:43 |
| schnitzel- | thank you. | 09:43 |
| schnitzel- | :D | 09:43 |
| dr_willis | i use 64bit os on all 64bit hardware | 09:43 |
| schnitzel- | perfect. well. the name still sucks :P and thank you again ;) | 09:43 |
| kvothetech | schnitzel-: yes..use 64 if you have 64 bit unless you have a good reason not to and if you have to ask you dont have one | 09:43 |
| dr_willis | name makes perfect sense | 09:43 |
| schnitzel- | maybe to you. to me it suggest its build specialy for amd hardware. | 09:44 |
| schnitzel- | so i searched for a "intel 64bit version".... | 09:44 |
| dr_willis | there is no need for any special amd builds in anything that ive seen.. in decades | 09:44 |
| schnitzel- | so why the name? :p | 09:44 |
| schnitzel- | well. nvm ;) | 09:45 |
| kvothetech | schnitzel-: it's always been amd64 or x86_64 | 09:45 |
| dr_willis | schnitzel-: because amd came out with the 64bit extensions.. and its what intel licensed | 09:45 |
| schnitzel- | okokok | 09:45 |
| dr_willis | i dont have time to find thee wikipedia entry ;) | 09:45 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: they actually do have there own version..just other than the itanium and a few others nothing really uses it | 09:46 |
| schnitzel- | haha no need to | 09:46 |
| schnitzel- | i believe you | 09:46 |
| kvothetech | i don't believe me | 09:49 |

| rurufufuss | sorry a bit slot, doing this over the phone with someone on skype :/ | 09:59 |
| rurufufuss | slow* rather | 09:59 |
| llutz | rurufufuss: so the binary you want to run was not installed using apt? get the missing libs manually "ldd ./binary" tell you what you need | 09:59 |
| kvothetech | rurufufuss: why compile stuff for 386 if you have a 64 bit system you can use 686 compilation at least if you want the 32 bit version | 09:59 |

| xorox90 | I'm experiencing very very interesting situation, when I nmap to my sambar server with directly connected wan, 455 port filtered, but when I namp with with connected lan (with router) suddenly 455 port open, Is there default firewall setting in ubuntu..? (Iptables -L show nothing...) | 10:44 |
| jrib | xorox90: there are no firewall rules by default (as you saw in the iptables output) | 10:44 |
| xorox90 | then why... 455 port filtered without router 455 port open with router it is very very strange.... | 10:45 |
| jrib | xorox90: probably some setting on your router | 10:45 |
| phyphor | xorox90: is the router doing PAT? | 10:45 |
| xorox90 | PAT? | 10:45 |
| phyphor | port address translation | 10:46 |
| phyphor | so you hit the router on port 455 but it translated it to a different port or destination | 10:46 |
| ubuntu13245 | hez | 10:46 |
| ubuntu13245 | hey | 10:46 |
| ubuntu13245 | quick question. the 1305 verion is the firts with uefi support? | 10:47 |
| ubuntu13245 | 1304 i mean | 10:47 |
| ActionParsnip | ubuntu13245: seems to be in Quantal too | 10:47 |
| phyphor | xorox90: if port 455 isn't open on the server, but it appears to be when you go through the router the likely explanation is that the router isn't passing the traffic as expected to the same server - it might be pushing it to a different host, or to a different port | 10:47 |
| Hounddog | hmmm having the problem now that i cannot install cause i have no network... | 10:48 |
| phyphor | xorox90: it's not the only explanation, but I'd check the router | 10:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Hounddog: its optional, unless you are using minimal | 10:48 |
| xorox90 | jrib: phyphor: yeah you are right, another server(my IDC server) nmap show result 455 filtered | 10:48 |
| xrfang | hi there, when I run smbmount it told me command not found (13.04). I have two questions: 1) which package is this command in? 2) why ubuntu do not prompt me which package to install (my office pc runs 13.04 do the command not found package hint). thanks! | 10:48 |
| Hounddog | ActionParsnip: i dont understand | 10:48 |
| ubuntu13245 | ActionParsnip, which version is quantal again_ | 10:48 |
| xorox90 | then maybe my routher do somethings.. | 10:49 |

| asdfasdfg | hey | 11:00 |
| asdfasdfg | i've got a lenovo w510 with nvidia quadro graphics and am not able to get brightness control to work | 11:00 |
| asdfasdfg | its ubuntu 13.04 amd64 and i've tried the enable-brightness-control thingy inside /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ without success - X11 wont start in normal mode after inserting that line | 11:01 |
| asdfasdfg | grub parameters did not help either | 11:01 |
| asdfasdfg | brightness is always on maximum setting | 11:02 |
| asdfasdfg | does anyone have an idea on that? | 11:02 |
| sere | asdfasdfg: i have had that before and if I remember correctly i had to manually change the config for nvidia-settings | 11:03 |
| asdfasdfg | sere do you remember any more details? | 11:03 |
| Hounddog | hmmm the terminal also seems to be starting but closing right after | 11:04 |
| Hounddog | cannot get to the console | 11:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Hounddog: can you open xterm? | 11:05 |
| Hounddog | ActionParsnip: just tried, nope | 11:06 |
| Hounddog | ActionParsnip: not installed ubuntu yet though... wanted to test some things before | 11:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Hounddog: have you editted ~/.bashrc recently? | 11:07 |
| Hounddog | nothing just started the livecd | 11:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Hounddog: try updating the gnome-terminal package using software centre | 11:07 |
| Hounddog | ActionParsnip: let me check that one | 11:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Hounddog: or press CTRL+ALT+F1 and use apt-get | 11:07 |
| sere | asdfasdfg: check your ~ for the nvidia-settings config file.. nvidia-settings was changing the brightness for me it was locked on high..but editing the source fixed this | 11:08 |

| Hounddog | squashfs error: unable to read fragment cache entry ... | 11:10 |
| nitin__ | application on port 80 is running fine | 11:10 |
| nitin__ | but on 3030 is not working | 11:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Hounddog: so you are running in liveCD? | 11:10 |
| Hounddog | ActionParsnip: yes | 11:10 |
| nitin__ | please suggest the solution | 11:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Hounddog: did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded? | 11:10 |
| Hounddog | ActionParsnip: nope | 11:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Hounddog: hen how do you know the data was complete and consistant? | 11:11 |
| Hounddog | ActionParsnip: i dont know ;p will check on that once | 11:11 |
| ActionParsnip | nitin__: nmap the server, see what ports are listening | 11:11 |
| sere | sudo apt-get install nmap | 11:11 |
| nitin__ | ActionParsnip, installed nmap | 11:12 |
| nitin__ | how to check the ports | 11:12 |

| Mrokii | Hello. What can I do (besides rebooting) if my USB card reader doesn't recognise an SD card? It randomly stops recognising it. | 11:13 |
| nitin__ | nmap | 11:13 |
| Kartagis | ActionParsnip: I did sudo apt-get upgrade as you suggested, but the package didn't get upgraded :S | 11:14 |
| Hounddog | ActionParsnip: thx though, am verifying that now | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Mrokii: unload then relaod the usb_storage module (check loaded modules first for exact name) | 11:15 |
| ActionParsnip | Kartagis: which package? | 11:15 |
| UbuNoobu | Hi all - dual-booting on external drive going well after few issues. I'm about to move the HDD to internal, anyone got ideas or knowledge on this? | 11:16 |
| nitin__ | ActionParsnip, thanks | 11:16 |
| nitin__ | found the solution | 11:16 |
| Kartagis | ActionParsnip: mixxx | 11:16 |
| nitin__ | ActionParsnip, how can i enable port 3030 as it is not listed in nmap | 11:16 |
| nitin__ | ? | 11:16 |
| ActionParsnip | nitin__: run an application that listens on that port | 11:17 |
| asdfasdfg | sere i've got ~/.nvidia-settings-rc | 11:17 |
| ActionParsnip | nitin__: you cannot just "enable a port" if a service is not listening on that port then connecting to it will do nothing | 11:17 |
| nitin__ | ActionParsnip, i means port 3030 is not listed in nmap | 11:17 |
| ActionParsnip | nitin__: yes because no application is listening on it | 11:18 |
| nitin__ | ActionParsnip, but i have set the application on port 3030 | 11:18 |
| asdfasdfg | sere anyhow there is nothing in there on brightness | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | nitin__: then check its config | 11:18 |
| ActionParsnip | nitin__: and check it is running | 11:18 |
| sere | asdfasdfg: thats it. now see if the settings for brightness are the same for the actaul program | 11:18 |
| Kartagis | The following packages have been kept back: <--- how can I resolve this? | 11:18 |
| Hounddog | ActionParsnip: checksum is same and i downloaded the 13.04 not the lts... | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Kartagis: some packages have unsatisfied deps | 11:19 |
| nitin__ | ActionParsnip, i have interchanged the application on port 3030 and 80 | 11:19 |
| UbuNoobu | will moving my external HD with 12.04 running as dual-boot with Win7; will moving HDD to internal have adverse effects? I suppose if Drive number and partition letters change I could have issues? | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Kartagis: until the deps in the repos are met, the packages will be held back | 11:19 |
| asdfasdfg | there are no brightness controls in thee | 11:19 |
| asdfasdfg | neither in nvidia-settings nor in the config file | 11:19 |
| nitin__ | application on port 80 runs well but not on 303 | 11:19 |
| ActionParsnip | nitin__: all I can suggest is check your configs | 11:19 |
| Hounddog | i should propably rather use the lts version or? | 11:19 |
| nitin__ | ActionParsnip, thanks ... issue resolved by port 8080 for the timebeig | 11:20 |
| ActionParsnip | Hounddog: I recommend LTS to normal users | 11:20 |
| Kartagis | dist-upgrade does the trick | 11:20 |
| Hounddog | well not normal user... i use it for developing but i am, not into all the nitty grittys | 11:20 |

| ActionParsnip | *help any | 11:38 |
| arcripex | ActionParsnip: its still running, after that i do what? | 11:38 |
| ActionParsnip | arcripex: try the software centre as you expect, basically it removes all package knowledge from your OS and then redownloads fresh | 11:40 |
| arcripex | ActionParsnip: ok will try and get back to you thanks in advance | 11:40 |
| ActionParsnip | arcripex: that script is badass, its basically the package fix commands in a script for convenience | 11:41 |
| Aethysius | llutz, no, it doesn't. | 11:41 |
| Hounddog | ActionParsnip: on boot i set acpi=off now it seems to be working | 11:42 |

| seronis | ((im gonna be installing boost later today too)) | 12:02 |
| blz | seronis, it may be =) I'm horrifically new to C++, so I'm just getting my bearings... | 12:02 |
| blz | seronis, I'll start with boost-dev and see what happens =) | 12:02 |
| seronis | im not new, but havent used it in about 3 years and only recently adopted xubuntu. program options is the command line parsing lib right ? | 12:04 |
| seronis | if so at least -some- version of that lib should be in the standard install even if the repo version of boost isnt the latest | 12:04 |

| cfhowlett | gear4, try this: logout. choose an alternate (non-unity) desktop environment. login. then repeat the process and choose unity | 13:04 |
| gear4 | will do | 13:04 |
| === mdfe___ is now known as mdfe | ||
| gear4 | it never worked, cinnamon and GNOME fallback crashes | 13:10 |
| gear4 | hello | 13:10 |
| cfhowlett | gear4, so NO desktop environment at all? | 13:11 |
| zerogh | gear4 | 13:11 |
| geekbri | Has anybody had the issue with ubuntu 12.04 LTS where when you create an SSH session it doesn't seem to load or respect the pam limits module even though sshd in /etc/pam.d does indeed contain a require for the limits module? | 13:12 |
| gear4 | cfhowlett: I can get one but it crashes soon | 13:12 |
| cfhowlett | zerogh, you got ideas? I'm on xubuntu so my experience is limited ... | 13:13 |
| gear4 | right now there's a pop-up saying "Sorry, Ubuntu 13.04 has experienced an internal error" | 13:13 |
| ddssc | when running apt-get install apgdiff I get http://pastebin.com/mGybh2sE . how should I proceed? | 13:13 |
| gear4 | cfhowlett: on GNOME I get gnome-panel crashing, Cinnamon same, and on Unity it's Compiz | 13:14 |
| cfhowlett | gear4, keep asking in the channel. this one is over my head. | 13:15 |
| gear4 | oky, thanks | 13:15 |
| sonOfRa | Is it possible to configure a Wireless network to only connect, if there is no wired connection available? | 13:15 |
| llutz | sonOfRa: that should be default | 13:15 |
| sonOfRa | Currenty both my wired connection and the wireless are connecting because both are available, but there is no need to have the wireless connection online | 13:15 |
| gear4 | cfhowlett: do you mind c/p my question to me ? I can't remember the contents | 13:16 |
| sonOfRa | llutz, doesn't seem to be. On startup, it immediately connects to both | 13:16 |
| cfhowlett | gear4, just say : 13.04 internal error, desktop environment crashes. also, screen shots would be nice | 13:16 |
| sonOfRa | this is on 13.04 | 13:17 |
| llutz | sonOfRa: odd, it doesn't here (12.10) | 13:17 |
| gear4 | cfhowlett: I can't take screenshots without a screen | 13:17 |
| sonOfRa | Both are set to "Connect automatically if available" of course | 13:17 |
| ddssc | apgdiff : Depends: default-jre-headless but it is not going to be installed or | 13:17 |
| ddssc | java2-runtime-headless .HALP | 13:17 |
| ddssc | should I just install that ? | 13:17 |
| sonOfRa | But I would expect it not to connect to wireless if it can find something that's wired | 13:17 |
| gear4 | Unity doesn't have screen after ~2 seconds and GNOME fallback hardly works, and is laggy | 13:17 |
| gear4 | anyway, thanks | 13:18 |
| gear4 | 13.04 internal error, desktop environment crashes after dist-upgrade. | 13:18 |

| vooze | After installing ubuntu with unity all was fine until i logged out after a few hours, and I was unable to load into unity.

| jdoles | How can I configure Skype to use my microphone such that it keeps working? | 13:35 |
| jdoles | One of the problems with that GUI is that I cannot see when something is in the on state or not. | 13:37 |
| jdoles | There are two states and they look differently, but there is no reason to assume one it on and the other is off. | 13:38 |
| dakotawulfy | WormFood what video card do have? | 13:38 |
| adamk | WormFood: Sounds like there's sometihng weird with your video drivers. Pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file. | 13:38 |
| WormFood | it's on-board...not sure if it is an ati or an nvidia (I don't have the computer in front of me) | 13:38 |
| dakotawulfy | WormFood should be able to install driver and go to settings you can change all that stuff under there. | 13:39 |
| WormFood | and since the icons are not visible, there is no way to run a browser to pastebin it | 13:40 |
| adamk | WormFood: You don't need a browser. You can use pastebinit from a console. | 13:41 |
| WormFood | I'm walking him through forwarding a port, so I can login to his computer, and see what exactly is going on myself (this may take a few minutes) | 13:42 |

| rosenzweig | The password is correct, but it just won't log me into my account. | 13:45 |
| rosenzweig | Now I can log into my guest account, just not my main account. | 13:45 |
| rosenzweig | None of the solutions online are working. | 13:45 |

| bdavenport | rosenzweig, any errors reported by X/window manager? | 13:47 |
| rosenzweig | I'm not sure. How should I go about checking for those? | 13:47 |
| bdavenport | iv had that happen before and had to go chase updates | 13:47 |
| rosenzweig | I'd prefer to fix this fast. I want to Skype with my GF. :( Anyways, yeah, how do I do that? | 13:48 |
| rosenzweig | I can go into the console right now and plug whatever command you wish. | 13:48 |
| jdoles | Audacity works just with my microphone. How can I configure Skype to do that? | 13:48 |
| jdoles | just fine* | 13:48 |
| bdavenport | dont think its gonna be a fast fix, but check out /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 13:48 |
| bdavenport | see if there is anything in there that is an error | 13:49 |
| nb72 | Is there an easy way to track system load? I'm trying to compaire performance between a couple different software packages. Performance testing basically. | 13:49 |

| rosenzweig | bdavenport, I'm not seeing anything weird. | 13:51 |
| rosenzweig | What should I primarily look for? | 13:51 |
| bdavenport | rosenzweig, hard to say, iv only had your issue once, and it was many months ago. I just remember that it was a failed upgrade that caused a lib to be missing that caused gdm to not play nice on login | 13:52 |
| bdavenport | your best bet is to just read the logs | 13:52 |
| === OS-10635 is now known as Guest9806 | ||

| bdavenport | as I said, not likly fast fix till you know the full problem | 13:52 |
| rosenzweig | I think that's what happened to me. | 13:53 |
| WormFood | adamk, thanks for the reminder to check the x11 logs. I can't get into his system right now, so I'm gonna go over tomorrow afternoon, and get everything setup for him in person, since he is inexperienced, and it is too hard to work over the phone with him. | 13:54 |
| WormFood | the fun thing is, he needs to forward a port on his router, so I can ssh into his machine, but his router's configuration is ALL in Chinese (and he can't read Chinese) | 13:55 |
| WormFood | I'm lucky enough, I can figure out Chinese routers, even if I can't read anything (but I can read some) | 13:56 |
| === frob is now known as Guest30784 | ||

| alexbligh | I'm trying to install package X with 'apt-get install X'. It tries to remove package Y which is for various reasons broken. X and Y are unrelated. Removing Y fails, so X doesn't get installed. Is there a way to just install X? | 13:56 |
| alexbligh | (apart from wget the .deb and dpkg -i - don't want to deal with dependencies) | 13:56 |
| WormFood | bdavenport, that is a good idea, however, he isn't even connected to the network for some reason. I told him if he can get it figured out on his own, to give me a call back, and we'll go from there, but I'm just planning on paying him a visit tomorrow afternoon | 13:57 |

I want to add the correct MTU in the config file, but putting "Interface MTU=x" into /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/VPN_connection causes vpnc to die with "Config option 'Interface MTU' invalid or unknown" | 15:25 |
| higli | ^Mike: did you try to turn off first VPN then set MTU then turn on VPN | 15:26 |
| ^Mike | higli: I don't need to change the MTU for eth0, I need to change it for tun0 only. I can do that manually of course, but I should be able to configure that in the tunnel config, no? | 15:27 |
| higli | ^Mike: soory i dont know, do you meybe know how to set up wpa supplicant | 15:28 |
| ^Mike | higli: Why would I need to do that? | 15:28 |
| ^Mike | The issue is NetworkManager's config having no way I can find to set MTU | 15:29 |
| higli | ^Mike: you dont i need thet | 15:29 |

| fractaline | but i'm not getting the option?? | 15:35 |

| maui | thanks, it worked | 15:36 |
| compdoc | shadow98, yeah, seems to be related to doig away with Unity 2D. There is mention of a completely differrent desktop envirtonment coming to Ubuntu named 'Mir'. Maybe that will help... | 15:36 |
| jilebedev | What is the recommended method of ensuring that a network file system is mounted correctly? I want to write a little admin script to check whether a network file share is mounted, but I think I'm reinventing the wheel. Any pointers? Shares are FUSE,Samba, and NFS. | 15:37 |
| iceroot_ | compdoc: mir is not a desktop environment | 15:37 |
| shadow98 | compdoc: i hope so cause this is way to slow to get anything done....teamviewer works but it locks up after week of use | 15:37 |
| iceroot_ | compdoc: mir is a replacment for the x-server | 15:37 |
| ^Mike | th0r: okay... I don't see MTU: http://i.imgur.com/nXjqchg.png | 15:37 |
| llutz | Mir will be fun for kubuntu-users... | 15:38 |
| compdoc | shadow98, well, if you dont mind a more gnome like desktop for 13.04, google x11rdp. theres a script on scarygliders that will install it for you. RDP works a bit better than VNC, I think | 15:39 |

| iceroot_ | ActionPa1snip: yes | 15:40 |
| rosenzweig | So I installed the free driver and good news, the fonts don't look bad anymore. | 15:40 |
| rosenzweig | Bad news, I still can't log into my main account. | 15:40 |
| rosenzweig | I type in the password, it flashes me a black screen with some writing on it, and it presents me with that lovely login screen again. | 15:41 |
| rosenzweig | Time to look at the xorg file... again. Would anyone mind perusing it for me if I uploaded it on a text site? | 15:41 |
| X-warrior | hello, I got an ssd/caddy so I moved the hdd to caddy and put my ssd on hdd place. But for now I still want to be able to boot from caddy hdd. But my bios doesn't have an option to choose which hd to boot from, it has cd/rom, usb, hd... if I choose cd/rom it doesn't boot at all, and choosing hd, it tries to boot from ssd (but it doesn`t have anything on it). Any ideas how to proceed? hdd has ubuntu and windows | 15:41 |

| ActionPa1snip | rosenzweig: can you log in as another user? | 15:43 |
| rosenzweig | I can go into my guest account. | 15:43 |
| rosenzweig | Which I am in now. | 15:43 |
| rosenzweig | And I can log into it into the terminal. | 15:43 |
| th0r | ^Mike, yup....my pptp vpn entries don't have all those options | 15:43 |
| Wolkec | hello | 15:43 |
| Wolkec | can someone help me | 15:43 |
| rosenzweig | The only problem is that I cannot log into my admin account via the graphic display. | 15:43 |
| ^Mike | th0r: Yes, well, this is a pptp VPN connection, so... :) | 15:43 |
| SonikkuAmerica | !anyone | Wolkec | 15:43 |
| ubottu | Wolkec: A high percentage of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? See also !details, !gq, and !poll. | 15:43 |
| rosenzweig | So it's not a driver issue, there's nothing wrong with the admina ccount itself. | 15:43 |
| rosenzweig | There's something wrong with me logging into that account via unity. | 15:43 |
| th0r | ^Mike, yeah...in my pptp connections there is no mtu entry that I can see | 15:44 |
| ^Mike | th0r: In any event, I don't even mind that it's not in the GUI, I' | 15:44 |
| ActionPa1snip | rosenzweig: can you log into a different session? | 15:44 |
| rosenzweig | I'm in the guest session. | 15:44 |
| th0r | Wolkec, let me get out my crystal ball and check on your problem | 15:44 |
| rosenzweig | I only have my admin account and the guest account. | 15:44 |
| ^Mike | th0r: I'm happy to edit the config file -- except that networkmanager doesn't understand the configuration directive for setting MTU | 15:44 |
| rosenzweig | The guest account having no password. | 15:44 |
| ActionPa1snip | rosenzweig: no, as your first user? | 15:44 |
| laurent__ | * | 15:44 |
| Wolkec | ok, i've recently updated to 13.04; And when i loged on i only saw my wallpaper, i've tryed downgrading kernel, reinstalling legacy ati drivers and now finally i've used bash and reset unity and got the sidebar thingie, but it's still not working propperly | 15:44 |
| ActionPa1snip | rosenzweig: like log in to xfce session etc | 15:45 |
| Wolkec | i can't switch screens anymore | 15:45 |
| rosenzweig | No. | 15:45 |
| Wolkec | and there's no animations | 15:45 |
| rosenzweig | That doesn't work. | 15:45 |
| Wolkec | what should i do | 15:45 |
| rosenzweig | I hope that help narrows down the problem. | 15:45 |
| rosenzweig | I tried gdm and lightgdm and they didn't work. | 15:45 |
| Wolkec | I'm not even sure if i've downgraded the kernels propperly i just followed a guide on the net | 15:45 |
| compdoc | iceroot_, ActionPa1snip, well I didnt mean it was a desktop replacement. I was just hoping it might help with these remote desktop issues like jilebedev and I are having | 15:45 |
| Wolkec | I have ati 4890 so i think i need legacy drivers, but aren't sure | 15:46 |
| th0r | ^Mike, I have very liimited experience with vpn, but wonder if you just dropped the 'interface' from the line you mentioned if it would work | 15:47 |
| rosenzweig | ActionPa1snip, so in short I can't log into my admin account in any graphic session (but I can log into it via terminal). | 15:47 |
| ActionPa1snip | rosenzweig: if you log into XFCE, is it ok. If you don't have XFCE installed you can drop to TTY1 and run: sudo apt-get install xfce4 then log in to the XFCE session in lightdm | 15:47 |
| SonikkuAmerica | ActionPa1snip: Would the trash-your-.Xauthority thing work with rosenzweig maybe? | 15:48 |
| rosenzweig | I tried that already, SonikkuAmerica. | 15:48 |
| Wolkec | th0r So... what did the crystal ball say | 15:48 |
| SonikkuAmerica | rosenzweig: No sale, hmm? | 15:48 |
| rosenzweig | No sale. | 15:48 |
| th0r | Wolkec, I don't use 13.04 or unity, so can't help | 15:48 |
| rosenzweig | I'll try xfce. | 15:48 |
| rosenzweig | but I don't think it'll work. | 15:48 |
| rosenzweig | I'll be right back. | 15:49 |
| rosenzweig | Yeah, using the xfce session manager didn't work. | 15:51 |
| rosenzweig | Can't login my account there either. | 15:51 |
| rosenzweig | I'll try the xauthority thing again I suppose. | 15:52 |
| rosenzweig | Do I have to be logged out of the guest account for that to work? | 15:52 |
| blz | Hello, I've just installed fish, but chsh -s /usr/bin/fish doesn't seem to have any effect | 15:53 |
| blz | what gives? | 15:53 |
| Wolkec | How can i get my kernel version someone please tell me | 15:54 |
| th0r | Wolkec, uname -a? | 15:54 |
| llutz | blz: is fish a valid login-shell? check /etc/shells | 15:54 |
| blz | llutz, I did. It's in there | 15:54 |
| blz | llutz, but good thought! | 15:54 |
| blz | llutz, does chsh require a logout/in? | 15:54 |
| llutz | blz: sure | 15:55 |
| blz | llutz, that might explain everything ^ ^ | 15:55 |
| llutz | blz: it changes your login-shell, so you have to re-login | 15:55 |
| Wolkec | Can someone tell me what kind of drivers i need if i have an ati 4xxx series | 15:55 |
| Wolkec | legacy or proprietary | 15:55 |
| rosenzweig | Yeah, xauthority isn't even a file. | 15:55 |
| blz | llutz, thanks =) | 15:55 |
| rosenzweig | It's just empty. | 15:55 |
| ActionPa1snip | Wolkec: which release? | 15:55 |
| Wolkec | i'm on 13.04 | 15:55 |
| ActionPa1snip | rosenzweig: it's ~/.Xauthority | 15:55 |
| llutz | blz: getent passwd $USER should show it as shell | 15:55 |
| ActionPa1snip | Wolkec: you will need the legacy PPA | 15:55 |
| adamk | Wolkec: I'd suggest just using the open source drivers. | 15:56 |
| blz | llutz, yep! It even knows my name! | 15:56 |
| Wolkec | open source drivers? | 15:56 |
| ActionPa1snip | Wolkec: https://launchpad.net/~makson96/+archive/fglrx | 15:56 |
| rosenzweig | I know. It's still not a file... ~/.Xauthority | 15:56 |
| ActionPa1snip | Wolkec: no, proprietary but there is a known issue with 2xx 3xxx and 4xxx ATi GPUs | 15:56 |
| urgodfather | hello room, I'm having trouble connecting on an intel 6235 while live booting | 15:56 |
| Wolkec | ok, so i should follow the steps from that site? | 15:57 |
| rosenzweig | So what else is there to do, ActionPa1snip. Have any clues? | 15:57 |
| urgodfather | the laptop also has 12.10 installed but it doesnt even show my network in it | 15:57 |
| ActionPa1snip | rosenzweig: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5674429 | 15:57 |
| Wolkec | If that the case please consider resetting Unity configuration to default or use other DE. How can i do that | 15:57 |
| rosenzweig | What should I do with that, ActionPa1snip? | 15:58 |
| ActionPa1snip | Wolkec: could install xfce4 package and be ok | 15:58 |
| rosenzweig | Use it as my Xauthority file? | 15:58 |
| ActionPa1snip | rosenzweig: just showing it is a file | 15:58 |
| Walther | What is the current "correct" way to install ATI drivers on Ubuntu 13.04? | 15:58 |
| rosenzweig | I know but I removed it, and it never made a new one. | 15:58 |
| Walther | Jockey seems to be depreceated? | 15:58 |
| SonikkuAmerica | !fglrx | Walther, try this | 15:58 |
| rosenzweig | It's not a file on my system... since I deleted it. | 15:58 |
| ubottu | Walther, try this: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 15:58 |
| rosenzweig | I was expecting a new one to be generated. | 15:58 |
| urgodfather | does anyone know how to troubleshoot this problem? | 15:58 |
| Wolkec | xfce4? Will it work as fast as legacy? | 15:58 |
| Walther | SonikkuAmerica: Last updated 2012, not sure if I want to trust that | 15:59 |
| ActionPa1snip | rosenzweig: try: mkxauth -u $USER -c `hostname` as your first user, run it as I gave it | 15:59 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, is there a chance it's listed under more networks? | 15:59 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Walther: There are mixed results with prop drivers; ... | 15:59 |
| rosenzweig | Okay, I'l try that. | 15:59 |
| Wolkec | So should i got for xfce4 or should i go for legacy drivers? How can i reset my unity settings as those seems to be bugged | 15:59 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: it is not | 16:00 |
| Walther | SonikkuAmerica: I know there are mixed results, mostly I'm just looking for the most current "correct" way to install - before, jockey / jockey-gtk was the way to go | 16:00 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, is there a chance you have mac address filtering enabled on your router? | 16:00 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, are other wireless networks visible? | 16:00 |
| krababbel | Hi, can I upgrade using apt-get upgrade, so that also recommended packages are installed? They are left out and --install-recommends won't work on upgrade it seems. | 16:00 |
| Wolkec | go for* | 16:00 |
| SonikkuAmerica | Walther: The fglrx is the only driver that doesn't show up there, but it's a side for software-properties now, Jockey is | 16:01 |
| rosenzweig | ActionPa1snip, it doesn't do anything. It just presents me with a new line with a ">" | 16:01 |
| rosenzweig | I'm not exactly sure what to do with it. | 16:01 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: filtering... no, other networks, yes... some (not all) | 16:02 |
| chiluk | and you are using a 6235 on 12.10.. | 16:02 |
| ActionPa1snip | rosenzweig: then you miscopied the command | 16:02 |
| operator1 | hello all who have come :) | 16:02 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, perhaps you might want to try the 13.04 image instead of the 12.10... 6235 is pretty recent... you might just need a newer driver. | 16:03 |
| rosenzweig | Oh yeah, I did. Silly me. | 16:03 |
| rosenzweig | mkxauth not found. | 16:03 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, there have been a number of recent updates to that driver between 12.10 and 13.04. | 16:03 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, if it helps I'm runnign 13.04 happily right now. | 16:03 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: im running 13.04 liveboot right now. it see's the network, but isnt connecting | 16:04 |
| Wolkec | ActionPa1snip Where can i find the xfce4 package? And can you please tell me how to reset unity / unity settings | 16:04 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, that's really odd.. check var/log/syslog and var/log/kern.log for any wireless related error messages. | 16:04 |
| chiluk | also from a terminal try iwlist to see if you can see the wireless network from there. | 16:05 |
| irv | can't seem to select any resolution higher than 1024x768 when plugged into my projector... in windows i can run it at native res which is like 1366x768 | 16:05 |
| irv | any ideas? | 16:05 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, sorry you see it but aren't connecting.. that's really odd... | 16:05 |
| rosenzweig | Yeah, I tried typing it in again to see if I mistyped it. ActionPa1snip, mkxauth isn't a package or command that I have. What should I do? I tried installing it, but obviously it wasn't found in the repository. | 16:06 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, don't be insulted, but re-check your key, and make sure your router isn't rejecting the connection. | 16:06 |
| infexion | irv: video drivers? | 16:06 |
| johnsmith | I was having audio issues, but I guess it's fixed now. The sound icon isn't in the top right corner like it's suppose to, though. How do I get it back? | 16:06 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, also maybe reboot your router.. | 16:06 |
| urgodfather | i have the same chip in a different laptop. when i first installed it, it took a few tries but finally it started working... this laptop im getting no luck | 16:07 |
| irv | infexion: how can i go about installing those for my onboard | 16:07 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: not router (i work at a pc shop) | 16:07 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, it might be a bad wireless card... did you see anything in the logs.. | 16:07 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, it has been known to happen. | 16:07 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: its new.. how to check logs? | 16:08 |
| chiluk | vi /var/log/kern.log and /var/log/syslog | 16:08 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: it also works fine in winbloes | 16:08 |
| chiluk | and look for anything related to wifi... or intel.. or wi0 | 16:08 |

| Anom01y | I will get back to you just on the phone now | 16:11 |
| chiluk | Matt____, It sounds like a newer laptop make sure you are using at least 13.04 | 16:11 |
| irv | infexion: it's the intel driver, and apparently those are installed by default | 16:11 |
| irv | i think it's just incorrectly detecting the display, says unknown display | 16:12 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, run sudo vi /var/log/kern.log and sudo vi /var/log/syslog | 16:12 |
| operator1 | ActionPa1snip, very well. thank you for the warm welcome. I hope to learn much in this experience | 16:12 |

| Matt____ | I am indeed. | 16:12 |

| chiluk | urgodfather, if you don't see anything obvious you might want to unstall using a usb-ethernet adapter and then upgrade the kernel... | 16:23 |
| hedin | MonkeyDust: doen't work | 16:23 |
| chiluk | you might just have way too new revision of the card. | 16:24 |

| chiluk | urgodfather what does "lspci | grep Centrin" give you for rev number | 16:30 |

| Cyberspaceloa | voiddd are you using hdmi audio? | 16:31 |
| voiddd | Cyberspaceloa: I'm using Intel HDA | 16:31 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, man... I'm not sure.. if I were you I'd go and upgrade firmware drivers.. | 16:31 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, and if that doesn't work I'd try an install then upgrade the kernel | 16:32 |
| hedin | johnsmith: I can't find any option for the Dash... | 16:32 |
| chiluk | if you are seeing your access point, but not able to connect that is really odd... there were issues with that a while back | 16:32 |
| roadfish | I have 12.04 on one partition and 13.04 on another partition. Can I some how "start up" 13.04 while actually being booted into 12.04? For instance, could I do apt-get operations for the 13.04 install but actually be running 12.04? Or run an app installed on 13.04 while actually booted into 12.04. | 16:32 |
| Cyberspaceloa | voiddd, maybe you've seen this already, but here's a thread concerning a kernel update breaking hdmi audio in 13.04 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2136303 | 16:32 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: how to upgrade firmware drivers? | 16:32 |
| MonkeyDust | roadfish no, as the other is not running | 16:33 |
| olivier_bK | hi | 16:33 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, but assuming you downloaded from here http://www.ubuntu.com/start-download?distro=desktop&bits=64&release=latest | 16:33 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: on the 12.10, i have already sudo apt-get update && upgrade | 16:33 |
| voiddd | Cyberspaceloa: yes. I've seen this before, and I tried downgrading the kernel to 3.8.0-13 but that didn't help either | 16:33 |
| roadfish | MonkeyDust: ok, so tools like virtualbox can't be used to achieve this aim? | 16:33 |
| MonkeyDust | roadfish no | 16:33 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, wo .. you told me you were on 13.04 which is it? | 16:33 |
| urgodfather | i'm livebooting right now to test this card. the system has 12.10 installed. | 16:34 |
| Cyberspaceloa | voiddd there's also the suggestion of using mainline kernel, but I couldn't personally help you with that | 16:34 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: i'm livebooting right now to test this card. the system has 12.10 installed. | 16:35 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, 12.10 works? | 16:35 |
| voiddd | Cyberspaceloa: I will take a look on that. brb | 16:35 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: in the 12.10 install, some of the networks arent found... in 13.04 they are but cannot connect to mine | 16:36 |
| Cyberspaceloa | voiddd, as always I recommend complete backups before trying anything crazy. Sorry I couldn't be a better help | 16:36 |
| blz | how would i go about adding ~/.local/bin to my PATH? | 16:37 |
| chiluk | urgodfather... well if you can risk blowing away the machine... I'd fully install the machine with 13.04 and then upgrade from there... | 16:37 |
| voiddd | Cyberspaceloa: I have tried the 3.9 kernel also, from the mainline build. But no luck still | 16:37 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, or you can dist-upgrade from within 12.10 | 16:37 |
| urgodfather | how to dist upgrade? | 16:37 |
| urgodfather | that would be easier | 16:37 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, open update-manager and click "install new version of ubuntu" or something like that. | 16:38 |
| voiddd | Cyberspaceloa: Thanks for the help btw. | 16:40 |
| SonikkuAmerica | chiluk: I wouldn't recommend that... the GUI keeps crashing. [ do-release-upgrade ] is better for a stable upgrade process. | 16:40 |
| Cyberspaceloa | vioddd, no problem. I just have zero personal experience with hdmi audio. I'm still in the analog world | 16:41 |
| chiluk | SonikkuAmerica, I wouldn't know... I tend to be on development releases and do fresh installs between releases. | 16:41 |
| voiddd | Cyberspaceloa: no problem. Do you think I could run a script that does alsa force-reload on system boot up? | 16:42 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: oh yeah lol | 16:42 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, check SonikkuAmerica's earlier comment | 16:42 |

| urgodfather | chiluk: oh yeah lol | 16:42 |
| Cyberspaceloa | voiddd I was just about to recommend that | 16:42 |
| Cyberspaceloa | voiddd does that command require sudo privs to fix the sound? | 16:43 |

| cimi1985 | hello, i'm installing ubuntu 10.04 in an old 2001 compaq presario...i'm a little worried because the installation is taking a long time....the pc has a 1.2 GHz processor and 512 MB RAM...is this normal? | 16:44 |
| voiddd | Cyberspaceloa: I have to try that then. Can you help me with another problem I'm experiencing? Ever since I've installed Ubuntu 13.04, it says Bluetooth adapter not found | 16:44 |
| adamk | Walther: You need to an xorg.conf file to specify a Virtual size. | 16:44 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, he recommended running do-release-upgrade from a terminal instead | 16:44 |
| voiddd | Cyberspaceloa: yes. it needs sudo | 16:44 |
| Walther | adamk: Usually that hasn't been necessary :/ | 16:44 |
| Walther | Usually just using the system settings has been enough | 16:45 |
| Walther | for the past a couple years | 16:45 |
| adamk | Walther: Well it is necessary when using dualhead with fglrx. | 16:45 |

| urgodfather | chiluk: ok thanks | 16:46 |
| cimi1985 | any ideas? | 16:46 |
| Cyberspaceloa | voiddd is your bluetooth adapter integrated or usb? | 16:46 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, you can always check if a command exists by starting to type it and then hitting tab to auto-complete. | 16:47 |
| adamk | Walther: Alternatively, you can create a file under /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ with the necessary Screen section and Virtual size | 16:47 |
| voiddd | Cyberspaceloa: it is integrated ... Broadcom Corp. BCM2046B1 USB 2.0 Hub (part of BCM2046 Bluetooth) | 16:47 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: waiting for 12.10 to boot | 16:47 |

| blz | llutz, well I've managed to much a bunch of things up, actually... I could really use some help | 17:44 |
| blz | For instance, I accidentally ran sudo chsh -s instead of chsh -s | 17:45 |
| blz | and this was for a previous build in .local/bin/fish, which is now nonexistant | 17:45 |
| blz | so now root can't launch a shell =/ | 17:45 |

| llutz | blz: sudo chsh -s /bin/bash | 17:45 |
| blz | llutz, I tried that, but i get a PAM error | 17:46 |
| blz | llutz, presumably because root can't run its shell (?) | 17:46 |
| === Guest65567 is now known as OS-10635 | ||

| blz | llutz, similarly, sudo su yields "cannot execute /home/<user>/.local/bin/fish" | 17:47 |
| blz | which makes sense since there's no such file or directory | 17:47 |
| llutz | blz: sudo -s | 17:47 |
| blz | llutz, no sudo works | 17:47 |
| blz | llutz, just sudo -s? | 17:47 |
| blz | nothing else? | 17:47 |
| llutz | blz: to get a non-login root shell | 17:48 |
| blz | llutz, sudo -s gives me " /usr/bin/fish: command not found" It should be /usr/local/bin | 17:48 |
| blz | hence *that* failure... like I said, I screwed a couple of thing sup =/ | 17:48 |
| upomoc | hi what USB wifi works best? | 17:48 |

| chiluk | urgodfather, when grub loads edit the kernel command line and remove the quiet option at the end of the kernel line | 18:23 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, you should also be able to hit tab or up down or something like that to get more verbose | 18:24 |

| diverdude | llutz, what is a meta package? | 18:30 |

| IsmAvatar | a meta package is a package that redirects to another package (or set of packages) | 18:31 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, you know at this point if I were you I would just do a fresh in stall using the 13.04 install.. and just upgrade packages once it's installed. | 18:31 |
| llutz | diverdude: "These packages do not contain actual software, they simply depend on other packages to be installed. .." | 18:31 |
| chiluk | wipe it clean and start from new. | 18:31 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: can i upgrade using disk? | 18:32 |
| diverdude | llutz, hmm ok. it says this: "Package mysql-server-5.5 is not installed, so not removed" | 18:32 |
| diverdude | llutz, but it pops up on auto complete anyway | 18:32 |
| chiluk | I wouldn't upgrade.. I would format your disk using your live usb key or dvd or whatever you have that has 13.04 on it, and start fresh. | 18:32 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, doesn't have to be your whole disk... but at least your ubuntu partitions. | 18:33 |

| superdo | hi, upgrading to 13.04 from 12.10 keeps my apps and settings? | 18:42 |

| MonkeyDust | superdo how are you upgrading? | 18:42 |
| superdo | using the ubuntu upgrade popup | 18:43 |
| MonkeyDust | superdo sounds good, though i wonder where the popup came from | 18:44 |
| superdo | eg. update-manager -d | 18:44 |
| diverdude | llutz, how do i get rid of the configs ? and why does mysql-server-5.5 popping up when i autocomplete apt-get remove mysql-ser[TAB] | 18:44 |
| superdo | or periodically pops up with updates | 18:45 |
| MonkeyDust | superdo sounds good | 18:45 |
| llutz | diverdude: "sudo aptitude purge '~c' ", no idea why that still pops up. | 18:46 |
| superdo | tbh my 12.10 is very crappy so give a chance to 13. At workplace installed 13.04 and runs flawlessly | 18:46 |
| diverdude | llutz, it must be an ubuntu bug | 18:46 |
| diverdude | then | 18:47 |

| everestt | kvothetech, is the performance gain of compiling your own kernel significant enough? Is 'significant' a too vague word to use here?? | 19:49 |
| everestt | *too vague a word :)) | 19:50 |
| neekz0r | you'd only want to compile your own kernel under very specific circumstances | 19:50 |
| neekz0r | or unless you just want to learn | 19:50 |
| everestt | neekz0r, what kind of specific circumstances? | 19:50 |
| kvothetech | everestt: in gentoo you HAVE to...and performance gain..not much...unless you want it to be performance based and then it depends what you're doing what you'd change for performance | 19:51 |
| neekz0r | back in the day, it made more sense when your processor was 200Mhrz, and every hertz counted | 19:51 |
| aeLiXihr | kvothetech: sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g that is, right? | 19:51 |
| kvothetech | aeLiXihr: idk ubuntu might call it something else but thats generally the package name yeah | 19:51 |
| upomoc | f this what usb wifi works out of the box on ubuntu? | 19:52 |
| neekz0r | everestt: if you are building for a specific platform and know what drivers you want to include (and exclude) in addition to knowing exactly what you want to do with it | 19:52 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: man this thing just keeps getting worse. now, no wifi support, no touchpad support, etc. lol | 19:52 |
| kvothetech | neekz0r: i think the best advantage is you can throw n EVERYTHING ou need..and not need an initramfs or any modules it can all be built in | 19:52 |
| neekz0r | IE: if you are making some sort of linux based router that is using specific hardware and you know you won't ever need wifi, ext4 and etc | 19:53 |
| kvothetech | urgodfather: ? | 19:53 |
| everestt | neekz0r, kvothetech ...like if I want to use a computer for a file server then I compile the kernel without sound drivers? | 19:53 |
| everestt | *as a | 19:53 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, man you are just having no luck...did you clean install 13.04 yet? | 19:53 |
| neekz0r | everestt: nah, i'd stick with with the default kernel, you aren't going to get much gain for just a file server | 19:53 |
| kvothetech | upomoc: you'd have more luck tellin us what you tried didn't try exact chipset wat drivers you're using what the hell error 137 is ec | 19:53 |

| neekz0r | kvothetech: been there too, it's kinda frustrating.. or when you forget to update your bootloader :P | 19:55 |
| everestt | neekz0r, kvothetech ...I just want to know a use case where compiling your own kernel is worth it? ...maybe it's interesting for kernel hackers only?? | 19:55 |
| kvothetech | neekz0r: lol yeah then you're stuck with hmm i'm ...not using it god @#$@#$ need to restart | 19:55 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: from liveboot, just "erase and reinstall ubuntu"? | 19:56 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, you might consider saving off the customer's home dir first.. | 19:56 |
| upomoc | kvothetech: look i am try to make this work last 10 days, i am using ralink 3070 usb and on ZorinOS it works normal (and zorin is just a ubuntu clone) it uses rt2800usb driver and when i boot ubuntu it uses same driver but just cant connect | 19:56 |
| llutz | everestt: its not worth the time you need to spend. except for learning maybe, the benefits on an average system are minimal | 19:56 |
| kvothetech | everestt: game servers, embedded systems, not wanting initramfs/modules like i said, just because you can. | 19:56 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, just don't screw up which partition you install to. | 19:57 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: they said they dont have anything needed to be backed up | 19:57 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, that would meak them really angry | 19:57 |
| neekz0r | everestt: to better understand, think of what a linux router would use; the two nics, iptables, mb drivers, etc. everything else is cruft... so to decrease the cost of hardware, you'd want to custom compile your kernel to be in as a small foot print as possible. if you weed out all the cruft, you don't need much memory nor CPU power | 19:57 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, don't kill their windows install either.. | 19:57 |
| mdfe | everestt, cifs (samba) and virtualisation support on a chromebook | 19:57 |
| diverdude | when is mysql 5.6 coming for ubuntu? | 19:57 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, good luck... if that doesn't fix things... update bios... update firmware... | 19:57 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: not my first rodeo | 19:57 |
| chiluk | hell you might even try that first | 19:58 |
| neekz0r | everestt: so your little linux router would only need a 250mhz processor with 64M of ram to operate at near 100Mb line speeds | 19:58 |
| kvothetech | upomoc: ok so what shows up in the logs when you try to connect | 19:58 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, I can't really help you with firmware/bios as that is machine specific. | 19:58 |

| maui | forget it, i found it | 19:59 |

| everestt | llutz, kvothetech, neekz0r, mdfe ...I think I get it now :) ...is there a website where I can find news about customized kernels with significant performance gain? | 20:00 |
| aeLiXihr | kvothetech: idid: mount -o remount,rw /media/USB-HDD | 20:01 |
| mdfe | everdred, i thik webupda8 just did an article on custom kernels for performance | 20:01 |
| aeLiXihr | is that ok? | 20:01 |
| upomoc | kvothetech: hc1 what is thet | 20:01 |
| kvothetech | aeLiXihr: kk | 20:01 |
| llutz | everestt: on an average pc there is no kernel "with significant performance gain?" | 20:01 |
| aeLiXihr | kk? | 20:01 |
| kvothetech | upomoc: hardware compatibility list... | 20:01 |
| mdfe | everestt, sorry, see http://www.webupd8.org/2013/05/get-better-linux-desktop-performance.html | 20:01 |
| everestt | llutz, mdfe ok :) | 20:02 |
| mdfe | everestt, if that breaks your system, i'm invisible, ok? | 20:02 |
| kvothetech | llutz: depends what you're doin on it... neekz0r good example llutz it doesn't take more than 3 minutes to learn how to do one ...what takes a while is getting it how you want it /right...again a one time thing though for the most part. | 20:02 |
| aeLiXihr | kvothetech: mount|grep USB says: (rw,nosuid,nodev,uid=1000,gid=1000,shortname=mixed,dmask=0077,utf8=1,showexec,flush,uhelper=udisks) | 20:02 |
| upomoc | kvothetech: do you meybe know how to enable wifi card to use its wpa nativly | 20:03 |
| kvothetech | upomoc: wpa_supplicant? | 20:03 |
| llutz | kvothetech: i'm doing this for a while, i guess i can say that a custom kernel for a "normal pc" is wasted time in most cases (except education) | 20:04 |
| kvothetech | aeLiXihr: kk uhm odd umask but other than that it looks riht | 20:04 |
| everestt | mdfe, I just need to know how to revert to the previous working kernel from a bootable pendrive | 20:04 |
| Vooloo | my ubuntu keeps nagging me about a partial upgrade, if I do this, will I get the useless sidebar that I don't want? | 20:04 |
| everestt | mdfe, and I don't know how to do that... yet. | 20:04 |
| kvothetech | llutz: probably personally i just have fun doing it :) | 20:04 |
| mdfe | everestt, the kernel will be in /boot and in /lib/modules | 20:04 |
| neekz0r | everestt: if you are really curious about linux, i suggest LFS (linux from scratch), it'll show you how to make your own distrobution :) | 20:04 |
| kvothetech | everestt: just edit your grub | 20:05 |
| upomoc | kvothetech: so what is wpa_supplicant comand to set it too use nativ card suplicant | 20:05 |
| jkeiper | can i temporarily stop a daily cron script from running by just moving it out of /etc/cron.daily/ to my home until i'm ready to let it run again? | 20:05 |
| mdfe | everestt, you need those files, and then you need to run update-grub to rebuild the boot loader | 20:05 |
| jkeiper | or do i have to follow up by restarting smoething? | 20:05 |
| llutz | jkeiper: just move the file | 20:05 |
| kvothetech | jkeiper: crontab -e and comment it? | 20:06 |
| aeLiXihr | kvothetech: so i am f#ckt? | 20:06 |
| jkeiper | thanks | 20:06 |
| everestt | neekz0r, I think I'll give it a try someday... last time I tried (a couple of years ago) I gave up. | 20:06 |
| thecodeischaos | if i disconnect from a wifi network... after a while, that network is not visible from the taskbar icon... i can see it in "hidden networks" though. why does it go there? | 20:06 |
| llutz | jkeiper: or add "exit 0" at the beginning of the script, until you're done | 20:06 |
| everestt | kvothetech, yep. | 20:06 |
| kvothetech | aeLiXihr: no. | 20:06 |
| jkeiper | llutz: ooh, i like that better | 20:06 |
| aeLiXihr | :) than what do i do next ? | 20:07 |
| thecodeischaos | the network isnt hidden though, because my other computers can see it | 20:07 |
| everestt | kvothetech, neekz0r, llutz, mdfe ...thank you all :) ...I'll go put 3.9.2-pf again and hope the sound doesn't break this time. | 20:07 |
| jkeiper | thx llutz | 20:07 |
| kvothetech | aeLiXihr: well it's mounted rw...it's saying read only..so stupid question...does your user have perms to access the folder (execute permissions on the dir) you're trying to delete | 20:08 |
| thecodeischaos | but ubuntu thinks it is hidden because i disconnected from it manually | 20:08 |
| aeLiXihr | yes that too, but i did a sudo | 20:08 |
| kvothetech | thecodeischaos: ? | 20:08 |
| kvothetech | aeLiXihr: kk....i'm missing something stupid...someone else will point it out in about 10 seconds | 20:09 |
| aeLiXihr | i dunno | 20:09 |
| thecodeischaos | i was connected to my wifi network on my other pc, and manually disconnected from it.... then after a while on that machine i couldnt see the network anymore... but i can see it in "hidden networks" | 20:09 |
| aeLiXihr | i have been fighting the thing for 3 days by now | 20:09 |
| thecodeischaos | it dosnt show up normally again until i reboot the machine | 20:10 |
| kvothetech | aeLiXihr: ok just unmount it completely for a sec | 20:10 |
| aeLiXihr | shall i shut it off? | 20:10 |
| kvothetech | aeLiXihr: aeLiXihr no just unmount it | 20:10 |

| aeLiXihr | mount -o rw /media/USB-HDD ? | 20:11 |
| kvothetech | aeLiXihr: as root yeah do that in /media or somewhere | 20:12 |
| kvothetech | thecodeischaos: put your card in promiscuous mode and tcpdump | 20:12 |

| ozux | m0nk3yjoe: error 26? This error is returned if the file header for a supposedly compressed file is bad. | 20:20 |
| kvothetech | ozux: so did you change the config | 20:20 |
| ozux | m0nk3yjoe: most likely, you should try re-installing grub | 20:20 |
| m0nk3yjoe | ozux, Off CD right? | 20:21 |
| ozux | kvothetech: yes, indeed, that's the reason I need to restart networking. | 20:21 |
| g-maurizi | #ubuntu, solved my problem. I was testing my NAT rule from the console of the router, and did not have an OUTPUT rule in iptables for the NAT. ty | 20:21 |
| ozux | m0nk3yjoe: to be honest, it's a while I did not use CD. Normally I re-install grub by booting a live disk and issue grub install | 20:22 |
| AleXa | games are run over wine: WoW and Counter Strike. But the whole system is somehow slowed down. When I scroll down through the page in Firefox, it's slicing | 20:22 |

| AleXa | btw, OpenGL is used for both games | 20:22 |
| ozux | m0nk3yjoe: you installed grub 0n MBR isn't? Does it show the grub menu? and options? | 20:22 |

| upomoc | and i remeber on older ubuntu it worked normal | 20:42 |
| kvothetech | upomoc: by removing the new ones and putting in the old ones | 20:42 |

| Elements_of_inst | kvothetech, yes thats true, you are right! | 20:43 |
| kvothetech | Elements_of_inst: budget, scalability, locaiton, hardware availability, experience, etc all are factors... | 20:43 |
| urgodfather | kvothetech: says to cp into /lib/firmware and then it can be loaded. how to load? | 20:44 |
| kvothetech | urgodfather: modprobe? | 20:44 |
| Elements_of_inst | kvothetech, not sure what you mean by that, i thought that the server parameters are more important that my phisical location:) | 20:44 |
| urgodfather | kvothetech: modprobe .... what? | 20:45 |
| kvothetech | Elements_of_inst: if it's a dedicated or a colo...it matters where it is....whether you want a vps or a dedicated should depend on your budget scalability ou want and whether you know what you're doing or not | 20:45 |
| kvothetech | urgodfather: modprobe iwlwifi | 20:45 |
| Elements_of_inst | kvothetech, how is that? :)) IF it is a virtual shared server then it doesnt metter where it is?" | 20:46 |
| kvothetech | Elements_of_inst: if you go that route it might not but you probably want to stay in your country..... | 20:46 |
| Elements_of_inst | kvothetech, no not in my country my website has internatial traffic | 20:47 |
| kvothetech | Elements_of_inst: i was listing things to consider...if you live across the street from a datacenter and have hardware to colo it'd be stupid to vps in a country on the other side of the world for example | 20:47 |

| bekks | urgodfather: If the module is named intel or contains the string intel - yes. | 20:54 |
| uroyanme | is the Msn dashboard for a microsoft browser and not Chrome? | 20:54 |
| urgodfather | ok now i have something | 20:55 |
| kvothetech | urgodfather: ok now test your card | 20:55 |
| urgodfather | iwlwifi 1 dvm and cfg80211 3 iwlwifi | 20:55 |
| kvothetech | urgodfather: i think you're supposed to have a mac80211 but maybe not...try it | 20:56 |
| kvothetech | uroyanme: what? | 20:56 |
| urgodfather | kvothetech: yeah cfg80211.... 3.... iwlwifi, mac80211, and iwldvm | 20:57 |
| kvothetech | urgodfather: and does it work? | 20:57 |
| urgodfather | kvothetech: negative ghost rider | 20:58 |
| kvothetech | urgodfather: error is? | 20:58 |
| uroyanme | Can is use the msn browser or dashboard on Ubuntu? My dad was asking me this. | 20:58 |
| kvothetech | uroyanme: i'm not sure what you mean by msn browser because last i checked there is no such thing .... | 20:59 |
| Biomechd | OerHeks: could i perhaps just delete everything in the .icedtea/cache/ folder? | 20:59 |
| kvothetech | Biomechd: yes | 20:59 |
| OerHeks | Biomechd, sure | 20:59 |
| urgodfather | kvothetech: same problem.. trys to connect then just prompts for pw again | 20:59 |
| uroyanme | Ok, I am trying to look up msn dashboard... ick | 20:59 |
| Biomechd | alright, just wanted to make sure i wouldn't be messing anything up. | 20:59 |
| kvothetech | urgodfather: hmm does your wpa supplicant work? | 20:59 |
| OerHeks | Biomechd, after that, restart your browser | 20:59 |
| uroyanme | Oh, will MSN explorer work on Ubuntu? | 21:00 |
| urgodfather | kvothetech: i dunno but the network is wep anyways | 21:00 |
| OerHeks | uroyanme, maybe with wine | 21:00 |
| uroyanme | Ick, that will be very slow. | 21:01 |
| kvothetech | urgodfather: kk so we can rule out wpasupp.. | 21:01 |
| urgodfather | kvothetech: i had this same problem when i installed the same card in a different pc. was a clean load of 12.10 on it. it took a few reboots and many connect attempts, but once it got connected the first time, did not have anymore issues | 21:02 |
| uroyanme | Can anyone suggest a browser for Ubuntu that I can customize? | 21:04 |
| urgodfather | kvothetech: its certified hardware, should i be having this much trouble? | 21:05 |
| Biomechd | thanks OerHeks and kvothetech. the blackboard java file's downloading stuff now. | 21:05 |
| akurilin2 | Is there an appropriate folder where I could have the www-data user save temporary files? | 21:06 |
| kvothetech | akurilin2: /tmp seems a bit obvious | 21:07 |
| akurilin2 | Is it awful if I create something like /var/nginx and chown www-data to it? | 21:07 |
| kvothetech | akurilin2: that works too | 21:07 |
| akurilin2 | kvothetech, the question is, am I breaking some kind of smart best practice here as far permissions to low-privilege users are concerned? | 21:08 |
| llutz | /tmp is a bad idea, if its not on its own filesystem. no webserver should be able to fill / | 21:08 |
| akurilin2 | if I do the above. | 21:08 |
| vlad_starkov | Question: can anyone explain me how it is possible that after I changed faulty HDD in my RAID1 and launched recovery process, after system boot I have clear system with no software and my data like????? | 21:10 |

| urgodfather | kvothetech: if so, how? | 21:11 |
| baibu | manu 51 | 21:13 |
| Jordan_U | vlad_starkov: Did you allow the system to run in degraded mode or was it configured to fail to boot when degraded? | 21:13 |

| Tony | Is there a way to set umask for all the files created by a user, having a issue with a user, he wants all is file to be 755 upon creation but befault ubuntu appears to be using 644 | 21:15 |
| Tony | I tried setting umaek 022 under the .profile and .bashrc but that doesn't appear to work, any clues | 21:16 |
| groovehunter | hi, i wanted to install a .deb manually, did not work, now want to deselect it again? | 21:16 |
| bekks | the umask 022 is the default. | 21:16 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | how can i grab all the out put from htop to a file ... there is a certin presss running that has lots of pharms, and the gui front end is limited so i want to modify it for a terminal | 21:16 |
| baibu | bla bla bla | 21:16 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: it run in degraded mode | 21:17 |
| Tony | bekks: do you know how to set this persmissions o the user files are coming with 755 | 21:18 |
| bekks | Tony: They are set like that by default. | 21:18 |
| Jordan_U | vlad_starkov: Is it possible that it has been running in degraded mode for a very long time? | 21:18 |
| Tony | bekks: it appears that that only applis to directories | 21:18 |
| Tony | applied to direcotries, whent the use creates a file, they are showing as 644 | 21:18 |
| bekks | Tony: 755 applies to directories, due to the execution flag, which is not needed for files, thus they are 644 by default. | 21:19 |
| bekks | Tony: You dont want to set 755 on _all_ files, since thats not needed. | 21:19 |
| llutz | Tony: umask 0022 makes dirs (base permission 777) 755 and files (666) 644 | 21:19 |
| Tony | bekks: but I want the users files to have 755 by default | 21:19 |
| bekks | Tony: Why? | 21:19 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: no | 21:19 |
| Tony | the users wants it that way | 21:19 |
| bekks | Tony: Why do you want a stock text file to be executable? | 21:19 |
| llutz | Tony: you cannot use umask for that | 21:20 |
| Tony | most of the files are web pages and they have to have the rx bits set | 21:20 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | what was that one way you can list a running process, i think i had 'ps' or 'eq' in it | 21:20 |
| bekks | llutz: You have to use ACL then. | 21:20 |
| Tony | otherwise the webserver can read them | 21:20 |
| llutz | bekks: tony has to | 21:20 |
| Tony | the user doesn't want to chmod the files, he wants it automatically done | 21:20 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: I started repairing system 2 hours after it failed | 21:20 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: the system contain web servers, database.... | 21:20 |
| bekks | Tony: And the webserver can read them, but cant execute them. If it is configured like that, reconfigure the webserver. | 21:20 |
| * baibu slaps [deXter] around a bit with a large trout | 21:21 | |
| Tony | bekks: pointer on using acl for this purpose | 21:21 |
| baibu | cade seu cowboy? | 21:21 |
| llutz | can any op please show baibu the door, thanks | 21:21 |
| dev__ | I want to launch 3 basic servers on boot and keep them running in gnome-terminal tabs. I've written up a bash script to do this but the windows all return "There was an error creating the child process for this terminal". Any idea how to do this? | 21:21 |
| vlad_starkov | with all users data | 21:21 |
| bekks | Tony: It is nonsense to force a .html/.php/.whatever file to have execution permissions, when the file is just read and then interpreted/executed by the webserver/some API. | 21:21 |
| bekks | Tony: Its a pretty bad design. | 21:21 |
| bekks | !acl | 21:22 |
| Jordan_U | baibu: Please stay on topic and productive. | 21:22 |
| Tony | bekks: the user is mainly using .css | 21:22 |
| bekks | Tony: Which do not have to be executed. They do not contain anything executable. | 21:23 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: I can't understand why it look like a virgin if I have 1 of 2 HDD in 100% health. Another one is in recovery process for the moment. | 21:23 |

| bfig | hello, i'm wondering, what is the easiest way to connect to a l2tp vpn? | 21:28 |
| bfig | (with shared secret) | 21:29 |
| === mpoirier is now known as mpoirier_away | ||
| Jordan_U | vlad_starkov: The only explanation that I can think of for the symptoms you're seeing is this, where "drive A" is the drive you've removed, "drive B" is the other drive that was in the RAID originally, and "drive C" is the new drive: Shortly after installing your system (while it still didn't have much software installed or data created) drive B failed to be added to the array for some reason (maybe hardware, maybe software) and ... | 21:31 |
| Jordan_U | ... since then you've been running in degraded mode using only drive A. After seeing that drive A was having hardware issues, you replaced it with drive C and tried to sync C with A, but A hasn't been part of the RAID for a long time. Hence you are brought back to the very early state before A was (somehow) removed from the array. | 21:31 |
| sscorrea | bfig, have you already installed l2tp vpn client? | 21:31 |
| bfig | i tried, but it didn't let me put the shared secret anywhere | 21:32 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, how's it going missed your last update. | 21:32 |
| Jordan_U | vlad_starkov: Make that last sentence "before B was somehow removed from the array." | 21:32 |
| bfig | sscorrea, ^ | 21:32 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: I see your point. I'll check data availablity on removed drive. | 21:33 |
| Jordan_U | vlad_starkov: In other words, most of your data exists only on drive A, which is unfortunate given that drive A is having hardware problems. | 21:33 |
| sscorrea | l2tp-ipset vpn? | 21:33 |
| sscorrea | bfig, did you install l2tp ipset vpn? | 21:33 |
| nyc-h0st | guys, odd problem ,grub keeps trying to install to sda during installation, is there a way to change it to install to sdc? i cant change the order the drives are reported | 21:34 |
| bfig | sscorrea, yes... the gui doesn't let me input the shared secret anywhere | 21:34 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: so you mean that drive B and drive C are healthy? | 21:34 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: and drive A is faulty and now I sync drive B with new drive C? | 21:35 |
| sscorrea | bfig, go to the PPP tab, check ms-chap and ms-chapv | 21:35 |
| sscorrea | add your user and password | 21:35 |
| Jordan_U | vlad_starkov: Only because you seemed to be assuming they were. It may be that at least drive B is unhealthy as that would explain it not being a part of the array for so long. | 21:35 |
| Jordan_U | vlad_starkov: And I'm also assuming that by "healthy" you're reffering only to the hardware itself, not the data contained therein. | 21:36 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: so is there a chance that I removed the wrong drive – drive A and I should put it back and remove drive B | 21:36 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: healthy – only hardware sure | 21:37 |
| nyc-h0st | anyone? is there a way to update the MBR on a drive other than the first during install? | 21:37 |
| llutz | nyc-h0st: sudo grub-install /dev/sdX | 21:37 |
| nyc-h0st | llutz, i assume i'd have to boot using the cd post-installation to do that? | 21:38 |
| Jordan_U | vlad_starkov: Yes, there is that chance. I haven't worked much with mdraid so I don't know how likely it is that this could happen, but probably the worst thing that could happen right now would be for the data on drive C or B to be mirrored onto drive A, overwriting all your actual data, so be careful to avoid that. | 21:38 |
| llutz | nyc-h0st: i'd guess so. you also could try to open a terminal while installing and issue the command there | 21:39 |
| nyc-h0st | tried that already :) | 21:39 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: before I put back drive A I'll clone it. | 21:39 |
| nyc-h0st | ok, thx | 21:39 |
| llutz | nyc-h0st: sry i'm not familiar with the live-cd/installation | 21:39 |
| vlad_starkov | to external drive | 21:39 |
| Jordan_U | nyc-h0st: llutz: You need to at least add a --boot-directory argument to grub-install when installing from a LiveCD. | 21:40 |
| nyc-h0st | ok, i found a way, kind of lame, but if you hit 'No' to the MBR installer it prompts which drive you'd like to use | 21:40 |
| p014k | So I am no longer in the sudoers file for my computer....I don't know what I did, but I was trying to change permissions for a directory yesterday via various commands, but at no point did I pess with my username (but only with a guest's username). When I try to do sudo, It says I'm no longer in the sudoers list. I tried doing su, to login as root, but it gives me an authentication error. What is the default su password? | 21:40 |
| nyc-h0st | i could swear i tried that already | 21:40 |
| nyc-h0st | anyway, thx guys | 21:41 |
| Jordan_U | vlad_starkov: Might as well clone it using GNU ddrescue. If the drive is fine, it will be just as fast as dd, and if it is damaged then GNU ddrescue will likely recover more data. | 21:41 |
| llutz | p014k: there is no default password, su needs roots password, which isn't set | 21:41 |
| p014k | so what do I do? | 21:42 |
| llutz | p014k: boot in recovery mode or from live-cd and fix sudoers file | 21:42 |
| phuff | I'm getting Failed getting release file http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/Release when running lxc-create and I'm guessing that I need to redirect lxc-create to the right place to get maverick, but I can't see the proper way to do so in the help for the ubuntu template I've got... | 21:42 |
| llutz | or your users groups p014k | 21:42 |
| Jordan_U | p014k: It's most likely that your /etc/sudoers is fine but that you removed yourself from the "sudo" or "admin" group. | 21:43 |
| p014k | that's probably true, I did change my group... | 21:43 |
| p014k | I thought I was adding myself to a new group i created | 21:43 |
| Jordan_U | phuff: Maverick is EOL, please use a supported version of Ubuntu. | 21:43 |
| sscorrea | just add that group to sudoers | 21:43 |
| llutz | p014k: let me guess, using "usermod -G group ...."? | 21:44 |
| sscorrea | through recovery | 21:44 |

| vith | i'm trying to set up a ubuntu vm as a vpn gateway for another device on my lan to use. i have the vpn connected and ip forwarding works, but it forwards to my router instead of to the vpn even though traffic generated on ubuntu goes to the vpn. any ideas? | 21:44 |
| llutz | p014k: usermod -aG or better adduser user group next time | 21:44 |
| phuff | Well, that I have no ability to upgrade, it's technically not in production production. | 21:44 |
| p014k | So recovery mode then. In that be su? | 21:44 |
| Jordan_U | p014k: You didn't just add yourself to that group, you set that as the *only* group you were a member of :) | 21:44 |
| p014k | I'll be* | 21:44 |
| p014k | Jordan_U: right..:/ | 21:44 |
| sscorrea | yes there you may login as root | 21:45 |
| Jordan_U | p014k: If you boot into recovery mode you will be able to get to a root shell, yes. | 21:45 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: I'm on Mac. What do you recommend then? | 21:45 |
| p014k | ok, thx. I'll be back if I don't figure it out :) Thanks | 21:45 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: I'have dd | 21:45 |
| mah454 | Hello | 21:46 |
| Jordan_U | vlad_starkov: I would personally boot from an Ubuntu LiveCD/USB and install and use GNU ddrescue, but if you are confidant that the drive is fine dd should work just fine. | 21:46 |
| Sniperm4n | hey everyone, I have what I hope is a quick question regarding the failover feature of DHCPD in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. can anyone assist? =) | 21:47 |
| Jordan_U | vlad_starkov: If the drive does have bad sectors then dd will stop at the first error, leaving you with an incomplete image and will will be difficult (though not impossible) to create the rest of the image from blocks that can be read. | 21:47 |

| Dr_Willis | great! Install those packages! that will teach them! | 21:50 |
| Dr_Willis | ;P | 21:50 |
| mah454 | now i dont know , what is different laptop-mode-tools and tlp ? | 21:50 |
| mah454 | what package is better ? | 21:50 |

| Sniperm4n | I'm replacing a single dying DHCP server with 2 new servers configured with failover. my question is: Do dhcpd.leases and dhcpd.leases~ need to be copied to BOTH the primary and secondary failover peer, or does the protocol sync the file from the primary to secondary? | 21:51 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | i made a sh file, it does work when in teminal i do ./Virus_Scan.sh ... How can i make it so when i use "Files" from the launcher, find the file and doubble click it and it will open in a terminal.. Cant even get that far... and now close the terminal when the process is done? | 21:51 |
| Sniperm4n | and, in turn, automatically keep the files in sync? | 21:51 |
| Dr_Willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: best way would be to make a .desktop launcher file for the script that way you get a proper icon. | 21:52 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | this is for a friend who is command line uneducated | 21:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: and have the laucnher run somthing like 'xterm -e /path/to/the/Virusscan.sh' | 21:52 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | how do i do the .desktop Dr_Willis | 21:52 |
| === carter is now known as Carter2 | ||
| Dr_Willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: look for an example one such as gedit.desktop and copy/rename/modify it as needed. | 21:52 |
| vlad_starkov | Jordan_U: OK. I'll start one more attempt. | 21:52 |
| Dr_Willis | locate gedit.desktop will show where gedit.desktop is at. | 21:53 |
| Carter2 | So I have a quick question about Ubuntu Server 12.03 -> 13.04 | 21:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: how often is he even needing to scan for viruses? and what av app is the script using? | 21:53 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: i reinstalled 13.04, didnt need any data. touchpad is working again, as is everything else... EXCEPT that 6235 wifi card. i obtained the ucode from http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi#Download for the card and cp'd into the firmware folder | 21:53 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: but dont know what to do next | 21:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: http://askubuntu.com/search?q=create+launcher | 21:54 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, one sec... before I steal your nic... | 21:54 |
| Carter2 | I ran a sudo do-release-upgrade, and went through everything | 21:54 |
| Carter2 | but then after a reboot, it says "new release '13.04' is available. | 21:54 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, and anyone else know the name of the package that includes backported wifi drivers? | 21:55 |
| LuckySMack | im on a fresh install or raring on my laptop, and i have no battery icon in my unity panel. ive tried a few things to try and get it to show but nothing works. changing the power settings does nothing. | 21:55 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, have you run apt-get upgrade yet? | 21:55 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: yes, im fully up to date | 21:55 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, nuts. | 21:55 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, one sec. | 21:55 |
| Dr_Willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: askubuntu has some better answers if you sort by 'votes | 21:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04 http://askubuntu.com/search?tab=votes&q=create%20launcher | 21:56 |
| Carter2 | anyone have any insight on what went wrong with my upgrade? | 21:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Carter2: what does lsb_release -a say about your system? | 21:57 |
| Carter2 | hmm, says 13.04 | 21:57 |
| khert | hi all | 21:57 |
| Dr_Willis | that points to the update-tool being a bit confused.. | 21:57 |
| khert | i have fedora installed and want to dual boot ubuntu. Can i install it directly from the ISO or do i have to burn it to CD first? | 21:58 |
| Dr_Willis | sounds to me like you are on 13.04 , and the update tool message checks like once a week.. and hassent rechecked | 21:58 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, check for a firmware update to your router before going any further. | 21:59 |
| Carter2 | ahh, that's re-assuring. Is there a way to force a check? | 21:59 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, you should be working by now. | 21:59 |
| Carter2 | or remove the update tool even | 21:59 |
| Dr_Willis | khert: you can set up grub2 to boot an ISO file if you wanted to. may be easier to just make a bootable USB flash drive however. | 21:59 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: router is ok... we keep it up to date. | 21:59 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: bluetooth works fine, just cant connect to wifi | 21:59 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, can you list any access points? | 22:00 |
| khert | Dr_Willis, cool, i'll try that | 22:00 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: yes, i can see all the networks around me that should be there.. and even a few more, just cant connect. just times out and prompts for pw again | 22:01 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, alright do yourself a favor and check to see if you can connect to any other access point. | 22:01 |
| Akuma | hello, how can I turn off the dhcp server at startup? | 22:01 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: tried that lol | 22:01 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: got it!!! | 22:02 |
| uroyanme | How do I update java in Ubuntu? thanks | 22:02 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, because frankly I'm guessing you either have an incompatible router, you are typing the password wrong, or the security settings on your router are somehow not compatible/not new enough to work. | 22:02 |
| bekks | !java | uroyanme | 22:02 |
| ubottu | uroyanme: 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. | 22:02 |
| Dr_Willis | uroyanme: depends on how you installed java and what one you are using | 22:02 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: i remember when i purchased the card for myself, i paired bluetooth and then all of a sudden it worked. | 22:02 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: its connected now :D | 22:03 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, sounds like a bios/firmware issue with that particular laptop. | 22:03 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, you shall be ignored henceforth... there really needs to be some kind of karma system in place on this channel... and why don't we have any admins? | 22:03 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: nah, different laptop, same type of card. | 22:04 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: ignored? karma? | 22:04 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, alright whatever man glad you could finally figure it out... I still bet it has something to do with your bios not being 100% compatible with it. | 22:05 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, also you shouldn't have to use that downloaded firmware... | 22:05 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: thank you for your patience and help. im gonna do a bios update to cover that too. | 22:06 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: i shouldnt? | 22:06 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, it shouldn't be necessary, | 22:06 |
| chiluk | but you are welcome to test and prove me wrong. | 22:06 |
| p014k | So I went into the root command line in recovery and tried 'sudo usermod -aG sudo p014k' but it says it cannot lock to /etc/passwd. I then tried echo 'p014k ALL=(ALL) ALL' >> /etc/sudoers' and it said 'read-only filesystem' | 22:06 |
| p014k | Jordan_U: | 22:06 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: i dont know if its even being used. all i did is copy it into the firmware folder | 22:06 |
| chiluk | there should already be firmware for it in /lib/firmware | 22:06 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: the one i used was specific to that card, from kernel.org | 22:07 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, ubuntu already ships with firmware for that card. | 22:07 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: so all i should do is just remove it from the firmware folder?\ | 22:08 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, you might consider reverting by moving out of the way the firmware you just placed in and running apt-get install --reinstall linux-firmware. | 22:08 |
| chiluk | then rebooting , and checking to see if it still works. | 22:09 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, I say that because you want to know if updates to linux-firmware are going to break your wifi driver. | 22:09 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, make sense? | 22:09 |
| chiluk | urgodfather you have to reboot after replacing firmware fyi.. | 22:10 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, basically you don't want your customer coming back in a month telling you his wifi stopped working after he did an update. | 22:11 |

| Learningg | need help http://pastebin.com/B1XGfiRZ | 22:12 |
| th0r | Learningg, you might try #python or #bash | 22:13 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: good point. ok so remove that ucode then apt-get install --reinstall linux-firmware | 22:13 |
| mdfe | Learningg, try #python and paste your code | 22:13 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, or just move it to your home directory temporarilly. | 22:13 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | i copied a .desktop and modify it, but i cant fint it in dash to work with | 22:14 |
| otak_ | p014k: sorry if this has been mentioned before but normally visudo is used to alter /etc/sudoers and also the root device is mounted read-only in recovery mode so you'd need to remount it | 22:14 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: thats where the original is | 22:14 |

| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | ok i found it in the dash, it had no label, i worked, but it open 2 terminals, one was blank, smaller black one did the work then automaticly closed | 22:21 |

| Learningg | need help: http://pastebin.com/efy8FSSx | 22:23 |
| Jordan_U | Roy_Newbie_13-04: Then it's already creating a terminal window for you. Just have it run your script without the "xterm -e ...". | 22:23 |
| Learningg | any1? | 22:24 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | in the .desktop file should i set terminal true, default was false | 22:25 |
| Jordan_U | Roy_Newbie_13-04: And if the terminal it automatically creates goes away at the end of your script as well, then just add a "read" at the end of the script (to have it not exit until the user presses enter), or a "sleep 99999" to have it not exit until the user presses ctrl+c / closes the window / otherwise kills the script. | 22:25 |
| Jordan_U | Roy_Newbie_13-04: Setting it to true will work, just make sure that if you do that you're not also manually creating a terminal window (with xterm -e). | 22:26 |
| Dr_Willis | Roy_Newbie_13-04: make your script do a 'read foo' at the end.. | 22:26 |

| misterx | hi there | 22:37 |
| misterx | is it possible to change the *buntu distribution without a re-install? | 22:37 |
| misterx | i have a computer with an ancient ubuntu (10.* i think) and want to change to an up-to-day xubuntu | 22:39 |
| Ben64 | misterx: you can go between ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu, lubuntu, and ubuntu-gnome very easily | 22:39 |
| Ben64 | misterx: 10.what ? | 22:39 |
| misterx | Ben64: lucid | 22:40 |
| Ben64 | ok, thats 10.04 so you could upgrade straight to 12.04 | 22:40 |
| misterx | Ben64: yeah, but i want to upgrade from ubuntu 10.4 to Xubuntu 12.04 | 22:41 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, you might also consider a post on ubuntuforums.. | 22:41 |
| Ben64 | misterx: then install xubuntu-desktop after you get to 12.04 | 22:41 |
| misterx | Ben64: does that also change the repositories in sources.list ? | 22:42 |
| Ben64 | well upgrading them changes the repos to 12.04 ones | 22:43 |
| th0r | misterx, xubuntu and ubuntu use the same repos | 22:43 |
| misterx | th0r: is there any package-list so that i can set up a "vanilla" xubuntu without a complete re-install? ;) | 22:45 |
| th0r | misterx, no, if you really want a clean xubuntu install you will have to start from scratch | 22:45 |
| th0r | misterx, but to be honest, I never upgrade...always install from scratch. If you have a separate partition for /home a fresh install is fairly easy | 22:46 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: i always google first, also, i noticed that the linux-generic, linux-headers-generic, and linux-image-generic are not being updated... could that be the problem? | 22:46 |
| misterx | th0r: same here… | 22:46 |
| chiluk | how did you notice this? | 22:46 |
| misterx | just too lazy to go through the whole installation-process | 22:47 |
| th0r | misterx, and I use xubuntu myself, btw | 22:47 |
| misterx | working at a friend's. installed her lucid when it was brand-new but the hardware's too old for unity | 22:48 |
| misterx | so i have to change | 22:48 |
| misterx | and since she didn't use the computer at all, i could easily do an installation from-scratch | 22:48 |
| misterx | …but not via ssh ;) | 22:48 |
| th0r | misterx, I have used xfce for ages, even on new systems. I would rather reserve the system resources for real work than a pretty interface | 22:49 |
| nyRednek | ok, how do i migrate a non-encrypted home dir to an encrypted one? | 22:49 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, that could be a problem... | 22:49 |
| misterx | th0r: using xfce since the stopped working on gnome2 | 22:49 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: it's a clean install, why wouldn't those update? | 22:49 |
| misterx | loved it, ever since | 22:50 |
| misterx | have to admit that lxde/lubuntu is also very nice ;) | 22:50 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, they wouldn't update if they are at the latest version.. urgodfather what does uname -a print out for you now. | 22:50 |
| th0r | misterx, I have lxde installed and have played with it. But I have a theme (23oz glass) that is old as the hills, came from E16, and I would really miss it <smile> | 22:51 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: i manually told it to upgrade those b/c they were in the "not upgraded" category | 22:51 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, um ok... must have been something you did. | 22:52 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, what are you using to do the upgrade? ubuntu software center? upgrade manager? | 22:53 |
| th0r | misterx, http://imgur.com/evAkstX | 22:53 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: it finished, did a uname -a and it says that its still on 3.8.0-19, but when it did the upgrade (through terminal) it said 3.8.0-21 | 22:54 |
| chiluk | urgodfather don't forget to reboot. | 22:54 |
| chiluk | th0r are you keeping tabs on me? | 22:54 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: just did it ;) | 22:54 |
| th0r | chiluk, no, should I? | 22:54 |
| chiluk | th0r, maybe you should read backscroll and realize that I've spent almost 5 hours with this guy this afternoon | 22:54 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: after reboot it says -21 like it should | 22:55 |
| chiluk | yeah kernel upgrades are one of the few things that requires reboots | 22:56 |
| chiluk | th0r have anything to add to this technical discussion ? | 22:56 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: i hate that it only connected that one time | 22:57 |
| th0r | chiluk, haven't really kept up with it. Been in and out all day, though I did leave the laptop running | 22:57 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, yeah that's not right..... try using your wifi on off fn-key combo to see if you can get it on .. | 22:57 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, afaik bios sometimes gets in the way by selectively turning off the wifi card when you think it's on... | 22:58 |
| th0r | chiluk, I tend not to get into deep techie discussions any longer. I have lived and sailed on my sailboat for 12 years now, frustrations quickly go over the side...would hate to lose my computer | 22:59 |

| chiluk | urgodfather, good luck... | 23:02 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, so I take it this wireless card did not ship with the laptop right? | 23:03 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: fn key works fine. yeah i know.. havent been on the winblows side plus ive been fixing like 6 other pc's (im a repair tech) | 23:03 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, so did it ship with the machine or is it aftermarket? | 23:04 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: no it came with a 6150 that the customer was having problems with on both sides | 23:04 |
| urgodfather | chiluk: so, we're replacing it with an ubuntu certified wifi card | 23:05 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, that's what I thought... you might have to add some acpi table entry stuff for grub to amke it play nice. | 23:05 |
| chiluk | urgodfather, I'm 90% certain this is a bios problem at this point... | 23:05 |

| satonio | ouch sorry | 23:16 |
| satonio | i have a ubuntu server and i have only access through ssh. i want to resize two partitions (enlarge one and shrink another). i can access it without neither partitions mounted | 23:17 |
| satonio | any idea? | 23:17 |
| th0r | satonio, is there any data on the partitions or are they empty? | 23:17 |
| satonio | it's not empty | 23:18 |
| satonio | there isn't any valuable data but it will take time to recover if something fails | 23:18 |
| satonio | from backup | 23:18 |
| th0r | satonio, if they aren't empty I don't think fdisk will work...I don't think it will preserve the data. | 23:19 |
| th0r | satonio, is X installed on the server? | 23:19 |

| th0r | satonio, that leaves out X-forwarding and gparted <smile>. I can think of no other options. | 23:24 |
| satonio | what if i install a x server and then use x-forwarding and then i remove the x-server? | 23:24 |
| satonio | do you think it will cause problems in the future? | 23:25 |
| fbdystang | Meaning I should post it in the #networking forum? | 23:25 |
| th0r | satonio, first, I am not sure gparted would be able to preserve the data, you would have to verify that with maybe someone else here. There is no guarantee that you could even get X running remotely....it isn't the easiest thing to do <smile> | 23:26 |
| satonio | another idea is to forget about resizing and create a symlink to the other filesystem and place the data in the big partition, did you ever see a huge mysql database in the home partition? | 23:27 |
| th0r | satonio, haven't worked much with mysql...but am amazed that the present day databases are even usable. I know how much trouble I had keeping a db of 200-300M intact in the old days <smile> | 23:29 |

| th0r | subman, you can install as many display managers as you like (kdm, gdm, lightdm, etc) and just change /etc/X11/default-display-manager (unless the church of ubuntu has changed that) | 23:48 |
| OerHeks | harris is it a ubuntu program or what? | 23:50 |
| thecodeischaos | seems like window managers are basically like themes/skins.... but change physics instead of colors | 23:50 |
| somsip | OerHeks: seems to be an arduino-type thingy | 23:51 |
| subman | thanks th0r | 23:52 |

| computa_mike | xyz_cursor: how did you install webcam studio? | 23:53 |
| xyz_cursor | it comes in a tar file... you decompress it and then do a java -jar webcamstudio.jar | 23:54 |
| computa_mike | xyz_cursor: so - where did you get it from? | 23:54 |
| xyz_cursor | from the official website :( | 23:54 |
| xyz_cursor | let me paste the address | 23:54 |
| computa_mike | http://code.google.com/p/webcamstudio/ ?? | 23:55 |
| xyz_cursor | https://code.google.com/p/webcamstudio/downloads/list | 23:55 |
| xyz_cursor | yeah computa_mike | 23:55 |
| computa_mike | xyz_cursor: I'l just trying the deb file - but I'm not sure I'll be able to run it - i don't have a webcam | 23:56 |
| xyz_cursor | I see :( probably it will run | 23:56 |
| xyz_cursor | but the deb is the old pckg | 23:56 |
| computa_mike | xyz_cursor: Hi - I just installed the deb file here, and launched it - I get a start menu | 23:59 |
| ohnonotagain | Whenever I attempt to mount my partition, I get an error saying *unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'* . If I mount it with *-t ext4* it works. I think I accidentally changed the header to Linux LVM with sfdisk, but even after setting it back to 83 from 8e, I get this error. Any help/suggestions? | 23:59 |
| xyz_cursor | computa_mike, yeah I can get it too.. that is the one I used previously... but the 0.61 version is not working somehow | 23:59 |
| computa_mike | but the 0.61 is an alpha? | 23:59 |
