| computa_mike | xyz_cursor: I just installed the alpha - It seemed to work fine. | 00:05 |
|---|---|---|
| xyz_cursor | mmmmmm computa_mike | 00:06 |
| xyz_cursor | computa_mike, could be a problem with java? | 00:06 |
| computa_mike | xyz_cursor: i wonder what java environment i / you have installed | 00:06 |
| ohnonotagain | My computer thinks my partition is 'LVM2_member' when it is actually ext4. How can I fix this permanently? | 00:07 |
| xyz_cursor | computa_mike, jre7 | 00:07 |
| computa_mike | xyz_cursor: I'll just check what I'm running... | 00:08 |
| xyz_cursor | thank you bro | 00:08 |
| xyz_cursor | I appreciate it | 00:08 |
| computa_mike | xyz_cursor: mike@mike-desktop:~/webcamstudio-alpha/webcamstudio$ java -version | 00:08 |
| computa_mike | java version "1.6.0_27" | 00:08 |
| mhall | Using 10.04 LTS, I have run into a strange apt dependency glitch, which prevents installing build-deps for openjdk-6 to compile a special JDK: http://www.mhcomputing.net/apt-issues.txt . Has anyone seen something like this in LTS when updates are applied and so forth? It seems kind of broken, like rather seriously. | 00:09 |

| computa_mike | OpenJDK Client VM (build 20.0-b12, mixed mode, sharing) | 00:09 |
| computa_mike | xyz_cursor: i'm still on 12.04 here... | 00:09 |
| xyz_cursor | computa_mike, same here | 00:09 |
| computa_mike | xyz_cursor: but I seem to be running the IcedTea6 Java stuff - do you want me to try jre7, and see if that breaks it? | 00:10 |
| xyz_cursor | no worries computa_mike I believe that is the problem... I'm going to wait for a next version | 00:11 |
| xyz_cursor | :) thank you computa_mike I really appreciate it bro! | 00:11 |
| computa_mike | xyz_cursor: It seems that the Iced Tea stuff is Java 6 | 00:11 |
| computa_mike | xyz_cursor: I also have java 7 installed | 00:11 |
| OerHeks | xyz_cursor, to use the right java version, run sudo update-alternatives --config java >>> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java#Choosing_the_default_Java_to_use | 00:12 |
| xyz_cursor | gotcha! thank you bro!!!!!!!! | 00:12 |
| ohnonotagain | mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/ returns "mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'" mount -t ext4 allows me to mount it. How can I make it know it's ext4 and not think it's LVM? | 00:13 |
| Sheco | is there a way to make the icons in the unity launcher jump when the app has a notification? the current hightlight is too subtle. | 00:13 |

| OerHeks | computa_mike, he is gone .. maybe to restart the browser | 00:14 |
| computa_mike | OerHeks: I didn't see him go... | 00:14 |
| OerHeks | 2 sec after gotcha! | 00:15 |
| computa_mike | OerHeks: Thanks for pointing that java switcher thing - I looked in software centre, and I was thinking "I wonder how Ubuntu knows which version to use" | 00:15 |
| OerHeks | computa_mike, took me a while to recognize, fist i was thinking he was missing oracle java 6 | 00:16 |
| ohnonotagain | My computer thinks a partition is an LVM, when it is ext4. How might I convince it that it's ext4. I cannot boot because it's my /boot partition :\ | 00:19 |
| computa_mike | Anyone here managed to get k9copy to work on Ubuntu 12.04? I'm trying to rip audio from a track and I getting an error that Audio extraction can only be done with ffmpeg - which I totally have... | 00:20 |
| OerHeks | computa_mike, you need lame and gstreamer-lame packages to rip mp3, maybe needed too for audiocd ? | 00:21 |
| computa_mike | OerHeks: but I was hpoing to rip to Ogg... | 00:22 |
| jman074 | i have a folder that is telling me i am not the owner so i cannot change permissions. how do i fix this | 00:22 |
| computa_mike | OerHeks: I'll try adding lame and gstreamer-lame though - worth a try... | 00:22 |
| OerHeks | hmm no, it is just for mp3, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lame | 00:23 |
| OerHeks | what kind of soundtrack is your source ? | 00:23 |
| computa_mike | OerHeks: it's a DVD | 00:24 |
| isk8ufsusd | does anyone have experience with running into low graphics mode during startup because there is no free hard drive space, however the file(s) that are causing the problem don't show up when you look for them | 00:24 |
| computa_mike | OerHeks: I just read my post, and I realise now I never actually said it was a DVD - | 00:24 |
| bekks | isk8ufsusd: Sure. The reason: no free disk space. The solution: free up disk space. | 00:25 |
| OerHeks | computa_mike, ah, did you run that css script etc ? >> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs | 00:25 |
| isk8ufsusd | yes, but there is no disk space to free up as I can't find the files | 00:25 |
| isk8ufsusd | they don't register but they are there | 00:25 |
| computa_mike | OerHeks: I can play the DVD no problem - it's just when I try and use k9copy it complains. | 00:25 |
| jman074 | ? | 00:26 |
| computa_mike | OerHeks: I'm wondering if it's some incompatability - k9copy is a KDE app, and I'm running unity | 00:26 |
| computa_mike | OerHeks: add into that that ffmpeg is sort of on the way out... | 00:26 |
| isk8ufsusd | my son uses the machine to watch videos on pbskids.org or nickjr.com and the machine fills up for no reason. usually a restart will fix it but i have tried about 20x and nothing happens | 00:26 |
| isk8ufsusd | last time i had the problem there was a tmp folder in /var/tmp/.tmp | 00:27 |
| isk8ufsusd | that fixed the issue but this time there is no hidden .tmp folder in /var/tmp | 00:28 |
| jman074 | i have a file that says i am not the owner so i cannot change permissions. funny being that im the administrator how do i fix this ? | 00:28 |
| mdfe | jman074, chown will take ownership | 00:29 |
| OerHeks | computa_mike, it is not a KDE program, afaik https://help.ubuntu.com/community/K9Copy | 00:30 |
| jman074 | ill try | 00:30 |
| computa_mike | OerHeks: I was going on the name, and the man page for it - which lists the title as : NAME | 00:31 |
| computa_mike | k9copy - DVD copy tool for KDE | 00:31 |
| isk8ufsusd | so no suggestions for low disk space when you can't locate the files because they don't show up | 00:32 |
| OerHeks | computa_mike thanks, learned something :-) sourceforge offers a version without the kde dependencies > http://k9copy.sourceforge.net/web/index.php/en/download | 00:32 |
| computa_mike | OerHeks: I'll try that also... | 00:33 |
| dr_willis | there are some extra protected dvds that most linux tools cant topy | 00:34 |
| dr_willis | copy | 00:34 |
| Sheco | is there a way to make the icons in the unity launcher jump when the app has a notification? the current hightlight is too subtle. | 00:34 |
| OerHeks | dr_willis, true, but if you can play it, you can | 00:36 |
| computa_mike | dr_willis: I'll try another DVD... see if that's the problem... | 00:38 |
| dr_willis | ive had some i couldent even play on a pc. | 00:38 |
| fractaline | hi, i installed indicator-cpufreq but cant seem to find any settings or a way to add or remove it from panel. | 00:39 |
| StaticLNX | anyone have luck getting zenoss working? | 00:39 |
| dr_willis | look on the dvd see if thetes some anti copy logo. most all new dvds ive seen hav ie these days | 00:39 |
| thecodeischaos | people still use dvds? | 00:39 |
| fractaline | lol | 00:39 |
| StaticLNX | they make good ninja stars :D | 00:40 |
| dr_willis | love boat season 1 - not on netflix, or hulu.. or blueray... wife wanted it. | 00:41 |
| mchlbhm | Hey, trying to get to a certain website but it says my OS (ubuntu 12.04) is incompatible. Any ideas? | 00:41 |
| dr_willis | mchlbhm: use one of those agent switcher extensions to make it say you are on windows | 00:41 |
| mchlbhm | dr_willis, I don't know what that is | 00:42 |
| dr_willis | look up agent switcher on the extensions page for your browser | 00:42 |
| mchlbhm | dr_willis, Thank you for being patient | 00:42 |
| dr_willis | its possiblr the site is using activex or silverlight or somthing that wont work in linux | 00:43 |
| mchlbhm | dr_willis, I don't know. Did you want a link? | 00:44 |
| harris | who knows a lot about duel booting | 00:46 |
| dr_willis | im on my phone.. so i cant test the site | 00:46 |
| harris | dr_willis, do you | 00:47 |
| mchlbhm | dr_willis, Thank you for your time. :) | 00:47 |
| OerHeks | why don't you ask the real question and find out, harris? | 00:50 |
| fractaline | do i need launchpad to use indicator-cpufreq properly? | 00:50 |
| dr_willis | !grub2 | 00:50 |
| ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 00:50 |
| OerHeks | !launchpad | 00:51 |
| ubottu | Launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ | 00:51 |
| fractaline | thanks, thats a handy bot | 00:52 |
| harris | OerHeks, if my laptop ONLY has ubuntu 13.04 on it how do i duel boot it with xp | 00:53 |
| OerHeks | fractaline, only if you want to report bugs, AFAIK | 00:53 |
| OerHeks | harris, install XP first, then ubuntu | 00:53 |
| fractaline | you can always repair grub after, yes? | 00:54 |
| fractaline | after xp | 00:54 |
| OerHeks | fractaline, wiki says you can > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot#Installing_Windows_After_Ubuntu i hop it works | 00:57 |
| fractaline | i have with win8 | 00:57 |
| * fractaline dry heaves | 00:57 | |
| isk8ufsusd | my machine has booted into the GUI after using sudo apt-get clean. i am viewing the disk usage analyzer and it says that my home folder is taking up all the space. then it says the user name folder is taking up 143.7GB. then if you open that up it only says it is taking up a little over 72GB of space. Where is the other 70GB of space? | 00:58 |
| OerHeks | harris, you can not, if your laptop has a SATA hdd. xp needs legacy/ide mode, linux runs on AHCI | 00:58 |
| * StaticLNX dropkicks fractaline | 00:59 | |
| fractaline | ic | 00:59 |
| harris | it came with vista | 00:59 |
| harris | and i have duel booted it before with xp | 00:59 |
| fractaline | ouch | 00:59 |
| OerHeks | vista/xp or ? | 00:59 |
| harris | it has run both vista and xp | 01:00 |
| OerHeks | harris, again if your laptop has a SATA hdd. xp needs legacy/ide mode, linux runs on AHCI | 01:00 |
| harris | so i have to install xp first | 01:01 |
| OerHeks | so vista + ubuntu will work, xp has no sata drivers build in | 01:01 |
| StaticLNX | anyone have luck getting zenoss working? | 01:01 |
| harris | i have done ubuntu + xp before | 01:01 |
| OerHeks | harris then good luck, install xp in a free partition | 01:02 |
| computa_mike | dr_willis: I have managed to copy a video file from a dvd onto my pc - yay... just can't rip only the soundtrack - which is annoying... I'll get the code and see what's going on | 01:02 |
| harris | OerHeks, would you suggest installing xp on a blank hard drive ( erase ubuntu then install it after xp) | 01:02 |
| OerHeks | harris, wiki says you can > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot#Installing_Windows_After_Ubuntu i hop it works | 01:03 |
| dr_willis | computa_mike: k9copy, ogmrip, and ive used dvdfab in wine befor | 01:03 |
| harris | ok im installing windows see you when windows installs | 01:06 |
| dr_willis | thet will be a few hours ;) | 01:07 |
| OerHeks | he was sure it has been done before... i wonder, vista mostly means sata hdd. | 01:08 |
| dr_willis | vista? old skool.. heh | 01:08 |
| dr_willis | hope his hd is partioned in a way that vista wont go berzerk | 01:09 |
| fractaline | he's installing xp | 01:10 |
| dr_willis | thats even worse. ;) | 01:10 |
| fractaline | :) | 01:10 |
| th0r | dr_willis, look at it as a challenge <smile> | 01:10 |
| OerHeks | sorry, i was just beiing helpfull | 01:11 |

| dr_willis | clcto: that was not how he described it | 01:39 |
| clcto | itmard: if you arent connected it is steady red, right? | 01:40 |

| rmarker | i just want to connect with my dv9 | 01:41 |
| clcto | itmard: idk, i liked that | 01:41 |
| dr_willis | might be a module option for the chipset the thing is using | 01:41 |
| clcto | rmarker: http://linux.aldeby.org/post/Ubuntu-Linux-on-HP-Pavilion-Part-5-Wireless.html maybe? | 01:42 |
| dr_willis | determine the chipset and check the forums and askubuntu.comm to see if theres known options to change for it | 01:42 |
| rmarker | clcto: i did 1w config and it said no wireless extensions | 01:42 |
| clcto | rmarker: think you need to start the module. dont know what module it is though | 01:43 |
| itmard | thank you guys.. | 01:43 |

| onitaL | dr_willis, I understand that, but "apt-get upgrade" and "apt-get dist-upgradre" for a new user looks the same. so I wanted to make sure is just the name and not the function | 02:06 |

| onitaL | that's why is been held | 02:10 |
| dr_willis | ;) it sort of breaks a lot of the rules | 02:10 |
| onitaL | lol, yeah, it will never make it to Debian | 02:10 |
| dr_willis | the steam package i think just lets the user install steam into their home. it then updates itself | 02:11 |
| rmarker | i guess everyone gave up on my issue | 02:11 |
| onitaL | it's a package that installs a downloader for ther the installer | 02:11 |
| tgm4883 | onitaL, I don't think that is an issue for steam | 02:11 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: doesn't steam use wine...so shouldn't it be in your home dir | 02:11 |
| tgm4883 | onitaL, they are probably fine with people downloading the deb from their site | 02:11 |
| tgm4883 | kvothetech, no it does not | 02:12 |

| nrdb | I am setting up dnsmasq... I have a computer called 'chenbro' ... I can dig for "chenbro" and "chenbro.home" and get the correct answer ... I set a "cname=test,chenbro" in /etc/dnsmasq.conf" ... I can dig for "test" and get the correct answer but not for "test.home" ... can anyone help with the configuration ? | 02:16 |

| onitaL | aha sudo apt-get install update-manager-core | 02:19 |
| onitaL | Launch the upgrade tool: | 02:19 |
| onitaL | do-release-upgrade -d | 02:19 |
| dakotawulfy | rmarker thats i think is the driver u need | 02:19 |
| onitaL | how do I stop X again? | 02:19 |
| kvothetech | onitaL: ctrl alt backspace | 02:19 |
| onitaL | doesn't that restart it? | 02:20 |
| kvothetech | onitaL: or ctrl alt f1 killall <login manager>;killall X | 02:20 |
| dr_willis | al--ctrl-backspace has been disabled for ages | 02:21 |
| dr_willis | 'sudo service lightdm stop' is one way | 02:21 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: depends on your window manager xmonad lets you reenable it | 02:21 |
| dr_willis | thry all can enable.. but its not the default | 02:21 |
| dr_willis | !dontzap | 02:22 |
| marathon | "dontzap" does not compute | 02:22 |
| nrdb | kvothetech, nope! stops both queries from working | 02:22 |
| keithclark_ | After my last update I no longer have a working wireless card. It worked fine before, any ideas? | 02:22 |
| kvothetech | keithclark_: which card? | 02:22 |
| kvothetech | nrdb: kk was just an idea | 02:23 |
| dr_willis | keithclark_: try booting to an older kernel see if it starts working | 02:23 |
| kvothetech | dr_willis: yeah I know it's not the default in which case killall X willget it | 02:23 |
| keithclark_ | kvothetech, dlink airplus extreme g gwl-g520 | 02:24 |
| keithclark_ | dr_willis, I don't get a choice of kernels on this machine at bootup. It just presents the login screen. No grub. | 02:24 |
| b4ulook4me | Hi All | 02:25 |
| nrdb | keithclark_, have you tried running the "additional drivers" setup | 02:25 |
| wilee-nilee | keithclark_, Tapping shift at powering on should bring up grub. | 02:26 |
| dr_willis | hold shift.. and it should show grub | 02:26 |
| keithclark_ | thanks dr_willis , wilee-nilee | 02:26 |
| dr_willis | or edit the grubconfig so it always shows grub | 02:26 |
| dr_willis | silly hiding grub.... | 02:26 |
| dr_willis | ;) | 02:26 |
| keithclark_ | dr_willis, yes, it is! | 02:27 |
| dr_willis | they should at least say 'hit shifr now to show grub....' | 02:27 |
| keithclark_ | Now, software updates (I am on wired now) has updated the kernel. It has updated in batches, about 4 of them now. Do you think this might be the issue? | 02:28 |
| dr_willis | updated in batches? what do you mean | 02:29 |
| keithclark_ | dr_willis, well it said there were 30 something updates, I did those. Then it said about 10 more. I did those. Now it was 3 more, I've done those | 02:29 |
| mnewton | piping ps through grep gets me 'mnewton 2199 1 0 21:12 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash /home/mnewton/blah.sh' how do i extract the pid from this and send it to kill | 02:30 |
| dr_willis | so sudo sudo apt-get update , sudo apt-get upgrade ran 3 times in a row kept updateing stuff? weird | 02:30 |
| keithclark_ | Yes, but restarts in between | 02:31 |
| dr_willis | cant say ive ever seen a required restart in between | 02:31 |
| keithclark_ | Right now it is saying that a restart is required. | 02:32 |
| dr_willis | mnewton: awk can do it.. i think killall can do it based on thr executable name | 02:32 |
| X-warrior | I have an ssd with Ubuntu/Windows 7 and other harddisk with Windows 7/Xubuntu, when I try to access the Windows7/Xubuntu on second harddisk, I get "No such device, uuid \n hd1, cannot get C/H/S value \n you need to load the kernel first" This is some info I got http://pastebin.com/zBLTe4Tz | 02:32 |
| X-warrior | ideas? | 02:32 |
| keithclark_ | dr_willis, ok, reboot time.... | 02:32 |
| dr_willis | X-warrior: you mean boot it from grub? | 02:33 |
| X-warrior | dr_willis: yes, I want to be able to access both windows and both linux | 02:35 |

| rmarker | ok guys i got the driver i just don't know what to do for the TAR file | 02:37 |
| AlbertoM | Hi i have a cuestion i install play on linux and i see exe files can execute outside the win e folder is that a security risk? | 02:37 |
| AlbertoM | rmaker what driver? | 02:37 |
| AlbertoM | and what version? | 02:37 |
| wilee-nilee | X-warrior, It would probably help if you ran the bootinfo summary on the bootrepair tool and posted it. | 02:38 |
| rmarker | for my wireless | 02:38 |
| AlbertoM | of ubuntu | 02:38 |
| dr_willis | X-warrior: if you boot the other hd to linux can you mount/access the other hd? | 02:38 |
| dakotawulfy | rmarker http://www.broadcom.com/docs/linux_sta/README.txt | 02:38 |
| AlbertoM | oh ok i doont know | 02:38 |
| AlbertoM | DR willis can you help me? | 02:38 |
| keithclark__ | dr_willis, that was the whole problem! Updating went screwy. | 02:38 |

| twenty-three | hello guys, i am trying to install a program which isn't available through the distribution, all i have is a gz folder which contains a BUILD file, not sure how to go about it, the read me says to do ./BUILD <machine> | 02:39 |
| dr_willis | but the user cant trash stuff outside his home ;) | 02:39 |
| onitaL | twenty-three, does ./BUILD -h or --help return anything? | 02:40 |
| AlbertoM | i see exe files outside win e folder and can run it i | 02:40 |
| AlbertoM | thats not security risk? | 02:40 |
| dr_willis | AlbertoM: not really.. you can keep .exes anyehrer | 02:40 |
| dr_willis | you can run them from your windows drives if you wanted | 02:41 |
| AlbertoM | or can run from my home but it dont affects ubuntu | 02:41 |
| dr_willis | wine puts your users home in .wine/my_documents or somthing like that | 02:41 |
| AlbertoM | i install play on linux to run some emulators | 02:41 |
| twenty-three | onitaL: "bash: ./BUILD: /bin/csh: bad interpreter: No such file or directory" | 02:41 |
| dr_willis | z: in wine = your home i recall | 02:42 |
| AlbertoM | ok let me see if i understand and excusse my insistense | 02:42 |
| onitaL | twenty-three, how about ./configure does it work? | 02:42 |
| AlbertoM | I put that emulators on my local folder or personal folder | 02:43 |
| AlbertoM | and that runs normally | 02:43 |
| AlbertoM | doubleclick | 02:43 |
| AlbertoM | it means every exe will exe whith double click | 02:43 |
| AlbertoM | its not a risk of security like windows when viruses exes by themselves | 02:43 |
| === klixaK is now known as Guest71460 | ||
| AlbertoM | exes outside wine dont affect my sistem rigth? | 02:44 |
| twenty-three | onitaL: "bash: ./configure: No such file or directory" for the record I am in the folder where the items from the gz were extracted to | 02:44 |
| AlbertoM | sorry willys but i am too noob and dont want to do nothing bad | 02:44 |
| onitaL | twenty-three, does the website where you downloaded the tar provides instrunctions of how to compile/install? | 02:45 |
| onitaL | or maybe a REAME.txt? | 02:45 |
| twenty-three | onitaL: the read me file says "Please see the doc/ directory for documentation. See BUILD script to build alscript from source code." the website just contains basic instructions on use of the program | 02:47 |
| onitaL | hmm, then the build script needs the C shell | 02:47 |
| dr_willis | !info csh | 02:48 |
| marathon | "info" does not compute | 02:48 |

| AlbertoM | Ok willys i can store exes anywhere and dont have to worrie | 02:48 |
| AlbertoM | worrry | 02:48 |
| dr_willis | wine dosent care where they are stored | 02:49 |
| twenty-three | onitaL: how do i go about it? by the way, this is contained in the BUILD file: "#!/bin/csh | 02:49 |
| twenty-three | # csh script to compile the elements of alscript | 02:49 |
| twenty-three | # type ./BUILD <machine> | 02:49 |

| onitaL | AlbertoM, .exe files can't run in linux, so as long WINE can't reach then, nothing will happen | 02:49 |
| dr_willis | twenty-three: install 'csh' if it wants csh | 02:49 |
| onitaL | gcc | 02:49 |
| dr_willis | id bet it will also want a lot of c developer packages also | 02:50 |
| onitaL | *sighs* downloading raring packages @ 123kB/s | 02:50 |
| twenty-three | dr_willis, ok i'm on it | 02:50 |
| AlbertoM | is that the problem i have exe files in my home and in usb device and wine execute it sucefully | 02:51 |
| onitaL | twenty-three, ouch of curiosity, what are you trying to install? | 02:51 |
| dr_willis | AlbertoM: what problem? whats the core issue? | 02:51 |
| dr_willis | if a .exe is set executable double clicking it loads it in wine | 02:52 |
| twenty-three | onitaL: it is a program for nucleic acid and protein alignment, it is meant to make neat figures which i want for my thesis | 02:52 |
| dr_willis | or you can use wine /path/to/the/whatever.exe | 02:52 |
| AlbertoM | ohhh ok | 02:52 |
| AlbertoM | I think i understand now | 02:52 |
| AlbertoM | (Excuse but in the spanish chanel not have nobody to help) | 02:53 |
| onitaL | if you've never compiled, you mind want to do make some coffee first | 02:53 |
| onitaL | back to 7000kB/s | 02:53 |

| Charcoalcat | Hi! I need to use Find on a big text file (35.6 MB). I tried nedit, but as soon as I hit search the Find box closes??? So it's not very usable. What should I do instead! (My actual problem is that I have a lost post from Firefox and I'm following hopo's instructions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-912406.html so anything else that would solve that would be good, too) | 02:54 |
| AlbertoM | ok ubuntu dont execute exes, wine execute it whethever they are and i dont have to worrie if wine execute files outside his own folder | 02:55 |
| AlbertoM | Rigth? | 02:55 |
| onitaL | !goggle grep | 02:55 |
| marathon | "goggle" does not compute | 02:55 |
| AlbertoM | (I have paracetamol and cafeine for all) | 02:55 |
| dr_willis | Charcoalcat: try vi, or geany, or just use grep from the commandline perhaps | 02:55 |
| AlbertoM | am i rigth in my avobe coment? | 02:55 |
| AlbertoM | Willls only to confirm | 02:56 |
| Charcoalcat | dr_willis: I'll try geany and vi, thanks! How do I use grep? | 02:56 |
| dr_willis | grep pattern file | 02:56 |
| onitaL | do you know how to use command line? | 02:56 |
| dr_willis | AlbertoM: wine uses .wine for its settings... | 02:56 |
| dr_willis | AlbertoM: and to instuff to as a emulated c: drive | 02:57 |
| Charcoalcat | onitaL: Do I know how to? (yes if at me) | 02:57 |
| dr_willis | your users home dir is assigned to like z: via wine also... so wine has full access to your users home | 02:57 |
| AlbertoM | yes i see a c drive inside the wine folder but my surprise are can run exes outside his own folder thats not drngerous | 02:57 |
| AlbertoM | ohhhhhhhhhhhh ok | 02:58 |
| dr_willis | i dont see why you would think wine is locked down like that | 02:58 |
| twenty-three | this time it aborted due to "/bin/cp: cannot stat 'makefile.': no such file or directory" which I guess means I'm missing cp which i need for this. I am trying to find it by cp in synaptic but cannot find it, any clues? | 02:58 |
| X-warrior | wilee-nilee: what is this bootrepair? | 02:58 |
| unclezipper | Is there anyone that's familiar with file permissions? I need to restrict a folder to a group of users but I think I'm going about it the wrong way | 02:58 |
| Charcoalcat | dr_willis: thanks! I'm working on trying those three things now. | 02:58 |
| X-warrior | dr_willis: well, it is inside the notebook, I'm not sure... before I moved the sata positions on notebook, and installed the new I could (just with that 2) | 02:59 |
| AlbertoM | ii understand now win e can acces to all folders and run exe files but if have troubles only have to uninstll wine or delete the wine folder | 02:59 |
| wilee-nilee | X-warrior, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 02:59 |
| AlbertoM | i understand | 02:59 |

| seronis | the libs for Boost 1.53 is in the repo. but the metapackage for libboost-all-dev installed the version 1.49 copies. | 03:02 |
| seronis | anyway to get that metapackage fixed ? | 03:03 |
| Anom01y | for some reason my video card drivers or my video memory is being eaten up slowly, after about a week of runtime, I notice that my screensavers and other openGL things like clementine's (music player) visualizations get very choppy, | 03:03 |
| Anom01y | I think it might be a mem leak from adobe flash or something ? | 03:03 |
| unclezipper | Anom01y: Unfortunately, not everybody out there programs things that are free of bugs... There's probably memory leaks in the applications you use | 03:04 |
| dr_willis | see if a logout/back in corrects it. not a full reboot. | 03:04 |

| seronis | trying synaptic manager instead of software center. whats difference between "mark for removal" and "mark for complete removal" | 03:12 |
| seronis | removed != removed ? | 03:12 |
| dr_willis | twenty-three: its most likely going to neeed a lot od -dev packages to compile | 03:12 |
| dr_willis | completer removal = purge == remove configs | 03:13 |
| onitaL | seronis, I'm guessing the first one removes the packages and leaves the data, while the second one removes the package and its data | 03:13 |
| nrdb | I am setting up dnsmasq... I have a computer called 'chenbro' ... I can dig for "chenbro" and "chenbro.home" and get the correct answer ...

| seronis | onitaL, useful to know thanks. but for removing libraries likely not much difference then | 03:14 |
| onitaL | seronis, I always use the second one (complete) | 03:14 |

| goddard | my terminal doesn't recognize certain characters that my terminal in OSX recognized for example line breaks | 03:30 |
| wilee-nilee | X-warrior, If you boot from the sdb will its grub take you the windows on that disc? | 03:30 |
| goddard | is it possible ot set that up? | 03:30 |

| goddard | Ben64: have you used mongodb before? | 03:30 |
| X-warrior | wilee-nilee: I can't do that easily, my notebook doesn't have option to choose between harddisk on bios, so I can just boot from one harddisk, which is the one on the hd position on the notebook | 03:30 |
| X-warrior | if I change the boot to cd/dvd (where my caddy) is plugged, it doesn't boot at all | 03:31 |

| X-warrior | that is strange because when I run update-grub on sda, it finds 2 windows, 1 ubuntu 1 xubuntu, but when I try to access the os on sdb both of then give me that error | 03:33 |
| Ben64 | diddooomo: it probably does DLNA, so find a server that does that | 03:34 |
| X-warrior | wilee-nilee: are u going to stay here for a little longer? So I can reboot and try it again, just to guarantee | 03:35 |
| wilee-nilee | yeah | 03:35 |

| wilee-nilee | X-warrior_, Are the first two errors from using the grub menu, or is the first from actually booting the sdb drive from a menu? What is the history behind the sdb drive has it worked as is as an external? | 03:43 |
| X-warrior_ | wilee-nilee: using grub menu from sda | 03:44 |
| X-warrior_ | wilee-nilee: it was my main disk on notebook until today in the morning, when I opened the computer, add the sata on the main hd slot, replaced my dvdrom with a caddy and plugged the old hd, installed windows 7 on sda (main hd slot) and then ubuntu 13.04 (main hd slot)... but I would like to be able to access that os during this transiction | 03:45 |
| wilee-nilee | X-warrior_, I would find the key press to get that boot from menu and try that to actually boot the sdb. The script shows no errors in general. | 03:45 |
| unclezipper | Rollin' again... Is there anyone that's familiar with file permissions? I need to restrict a folder to a group of users but I think I'm going about it the wrong way | 03:45 |
| xMopxShell | Could anyone suggest a socks proxy daemon? dante-server seems of poor quality | 03:45 |
| Ben64 | unclezipper: ask the question | 03:46 |
| unclezipper | I need to set a folder so all its contents inherit permissions from it. Specifically, I need any file placed there by any user in a group to be read from/written to by any other user in the group. | 03:48 |
| onitaL | chmod -r 700 /path/to/dir | 03:48 |
| X-warrior_ | wilee-nilee: could it be that my /home is setup to mount on sdb? I don't think it should since, on grub there is no fstab running | 03:49 |
| onitaL | err | 03:49 |
| onitaL | chmod -r 770 /path/to/dir | 03:49 |
| unclezipper | onitaL: I need new files to automatically inherit the group permissions, though... And I need an application to be able to view the files. I tried that last night and I kept getting errors from the program that needs to use the files | 03:51 |
| X-warrior_ | wilee-nilee: going to reboot to windows and try to update my bios software | 03:51 |

| Ben64 | unclezipper: sounds like you want setgid, chmod 2xxx /path/to/directory | 03:51 |
| unclezipper | Ben64: That sounds promising. Can you recommend any resources so I can learn a bit more about this sort of thing? I've been having issues finding a comprehensive source of information(thus, I am here :P) | 03:53 |

| the-erm | I need some advice. I got a new external usb drive for backups. My old backup drive is also a usb drive. Can I just dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sdc then use gparted to resize the new drive? Is there a better way? | 03:58 |
| Ben64 | the-erm: it'd be faster/better to copy the data over | 03:59 |

| Campfire | is there snyway to clean up ubuntu | 04:03 |
| wilee-nilee | Guest52098, I don'y see a home to move the mount on just two ubuntu ninstalls. | 04:03 |
| chiluk | Anom01y, if it's a leak in flash there's nothing we can do since that's closed source. | 04:03 |
| Campfire | whoes in chargeing mode | 04:03 |
| unclezipper | Campfire: What are the specs of the computer you're using? | 04:04 |
| Campfire | hold on a sec i,ll get the specs | 04:05 |
| Guest17014 | hi | 04:05 |
| chiluk | Also Anom01y you should be aware that linux is very good with memory management, and it purposely uses up as much ram as possible for caching so as to avoid accessing disk... If things are getting slow and you are certain it's there's a memory leak you should google discovering memory leaks as it's not something I'll be able to really solve over irc. Try top, ps, and googling for analyzing memory usage linux | 04:06 |
| Campfire | unclezipper 512 ram p3 | 04:07 |
| Campfire | ide hdd | 04:07 |
| unclezipper | Oh... Your computer is horribly outdated | 04:08 |
| unclezipper | Um... you may want to try an older version of Ubuntu | 04:08 |
| Campfire | well | 04:08 |
| Campfire | i,m on the older but i,m interestested in older | 04:08 |
| Campfire | 10.4 old enough | 04:09 |
| Campfire | yeah the new ubuntu is cool but ment for a faster macanic | 04:10 |
| unclezipper | I'm not sure, honestly... I just recently ran into some problems trying to install Xubuntu on a similar computer for a friend. It seems like most of the repos on the install disc are outdated, so if you want to go for an older version, you'll need to manualy update the repos | 04:11 |
| Campfire | yeah i,m used to the hard way | 04:11 |
| unclezipper | What are you trying to use this computer for, if you don't mind me asking? | 04:12 |
| tabsterleir | Hey all, I was playing with some terminal based music players. I've since given up and removed all the packages, but when I copy music into ~/.Music it seems to be organising it in numbered folders. What would be causing this? | 04:12 |
| Campfire | strange you ask | 04:13 |
| Campfire | everything | 04:13 |
| Campfire | in small bits | 04:13 |
| unclezipper | Hm... Just normal use, like web browsing and the like? | 04:13 |
| Campfire | do you mind me asking what you use your pc for | 04:14 |
| Campfire | to make it clear i,d like to leave the door open to do anything | 04:15 |
| unclezipper | Media server, home network health monitor, email server, web server, light gaming, office/school use, web browsing, programming | 04:15 |
| unclezipper | I'm not really sure that you could do much on a P3 with a modern OS, though | 04:16 |
| Campfire | mind if i call you un | 04:16 |
| dr_willis | a ssh terminal ;) | 04:16 |
| Campfire | this is linux we can do anything | 04:17 |
| unclezipper | Well, sure. I used one to run Ubuntu Server once... But any modern desktop environment will put alot of strain on an older processor | 04:17 |
| Campfire | i,ve seen a 32 bit os | 04:17 |
| Anom01y | chiluk, ok, I just found an app that converts all adobe flash to htlm5 | 04:17 |
| dr_willis | ive used 8 bit os ;) | 04:17 |
| unclezipper | Does it have to be Ubuntu, or would you be open to using any distro? | 04:18 |
| Campfire | i just need to clean up the os i,m working on no dis respect | 04:18 |
| unclezipper | dr_willis: Ye gods... | 04:18 |
| Campfire | ubuntu 10.4 | 04:18 |
| unclezipper | Ok, gotcha... | 04:18 |
| dr_willis | unclezipper: that how i did word processing decades ago | 04:18 |
| unclezipper | dr_willis: That sounds scary | 04:19 |
| unclezipper | Campfire: What DE are you using? | 04:19 |
| dr_willis | unclezipper: that ot a typewriter | 04:19 |
| dr_willis | or a .. | 04:19 |
| Campfire | whats DE | 04:19 |
| Campfire | mean | 04:19 |
| dr_willis | !de | 04:20 |
| marathon | "de" does not compute | 04:20 |
| ubottu | In den meisten Ubuntu-Kanälen wird nur Englisch gesprochen. Für deutschsprachige Hilfe besuche bitte #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #edubuntu-de oder #ubuntu-at. Einfach "/join #ubuntu-de" eingeben. Danke für Dein Verständnis! | 04:20 |
| dr_willis | wrong factoud | 04:20 |
| unclezipper | Desktop Environment... Like KDE, XFCE... | 04:20 |
| dr_willis | for a p3 system. you may want to use just a window manager. like jwm or openbox | 04:20 |
| Campfire | gnome i think | 04:20 |
| Campfire | i did try the package that does every thing though | 04:21 |
| unclezipper | Ok... Well I'm not sure about Gnome since I use KDE | 04:21 |
| unclezipper | Try this though... sudo apt-get install bum | 04:21 |
| chiluk | Anom01y good luck what you are trying to fix may not be easy... also browsers now-adays tend to be super huge hogs... some take up to 150 mb per tab. | 04:21 |
| unclezipper | Go through that and get rid of anything that you're probably not going to use | 04:22 |
| Campfire | just a joke try this package just bum that cleaned you out | 04:23 |
| Campfire | *) | 04:23 |
| unclezipper | :P | 04:24 |
| Ben64 | get a faster computer? | 04:24 |
| Campfire | whats bum stand for | 04:24 |
| unclezipper | Boot-Up Manager | 04:24 |
| Ben64 | p3 is slow and inefficient | 04:24 |
| dr_willis | !info bum | 04:24 |
| marathon | "info" does not compute | 04:24 |
| ubottu | bum (source: bum): graphical runlevel editor. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.5.2-1 (raring), package size 83 kB, installed size 520 kB | 04:24 |
| chiluk | Ben64, p3 is no longer supported by recent ubuntus since the pae flag is now required. | 04:25 |
| Ben64 | works on 12.04 still | 04:25 |
| Campfire | ty zipper | 04:25 |
| unclezipper | Campfire, other than that I would recommend ditching Gnome and installing XFCE. Beyond that I can't tell you too much | 04:25 |
| chiluk | Ben64 what kernel are you using though? | 04:26 |
| Ben64 | why does it matter what i'm using | 04:26 |
| chiluk | I swear pae was turned on for 12.04 | 04:26 |
| dr_willis | even xfce or lxde may be overkill for a p3. | 04:26 |
| Campfire | i,m just trying to clean up ubuntu | 04:26 |
| chiluk | in the 32-bit kernel. | 04:26 |
| chiluk | p3 doesn't support pae=should not work with 32-bit kernel. | 04:26 |
| Campfire | not sure how to do it | 04:26 |
| unclezipper | dr_willis: I have a friend that managed to get an old Xubuntu to run on a P3... It was *really* slow, but it worked | 04:27 |
| chiluk | yeah old ubuntu should work on old hardware. | 04:27 |
| dr_willis | Campfire: othet then disable services. and use a lighter desktop or just a window manager.. thats about it | 04:27 |
| Campfire | get rid of trash and such and defrage in linux of sort | 04:27 |
| Ben64 | unfortunately old versions of ubuntu lack security | 04:27 |
| Campfire | sounds good | 04:27 |
| tabsterleir | Hey, new problem: If a copy a folder in Thunar its numbering all of the folders and files and mixing them up. Ideas? | 04:27 |
| Campfire | sounds like i need to do a back up before this | 04:28 |
| Campfire | can we go over hoe to formate a hard drive with linux when you guys get a chance | 04:29 |
| unclezipper | Ben64: Security is likely not an issue, I doubt that anyone would have a reason to go after an old machine | 04:29 |
| chiluk | ben64 quantal and onwards ship with pae enabled in the 32-bit kernel.. better be happy with precise you will be there for a while. | 04:29 |
| Campfire | how how | 04:29 |
| chiluk | campfire boot an install however you feel like, and run gparted | 04:30 |

| chiluk | so what are you wanting to know? | 04:32 |
| dr_willis | linux fundamentals it seems.. | 04:33 |
| chiluk | a hard drive = a block device and shows up for most consumer systems as /dev/sda or sdb.... | 04:33 |
| Campfire | ok so if you want to run strait linux and not have windows in your way you can or not | 04:34 |
| chiluk | on top fo the block device sits a partition table this can be of type msdos or gpt or a number of other things. | 04:34 |
| chiluk | Campfire, are you trying to delete windows? | 04:34 |
| chiluk | I'll gladly help with that. | 04:34 |
| Campfire | no | 04:34 |
| chiluk | or are you trying to dual boot? | 04:34 |
| Campfire | windows is long gone | 04:34 |
| chiluk | awesome. | 04:34 |
| chiluk | that's how I roll. | 04:35 |
| Campfire | i yard sail when i roll | 04:35 |

| akurilin2 | Quick question. I added a new A value to my zone file settings on my domain and I can already see the new subdomain being reachable through some web checking tools. I however cannot seem to be able to get there from my Ubuntu instance, neither with curl nor with a browser. Is there something I have to flush to make this work? | 04:54 |
| Prock81 | im not complaining but why so many kernel up dates on a regular bases , im sure its for the bettter, but whats making so many updates of the kernel? 13.04 | 04:54 |
| somsip | dr_willis: do we have a second bot in here suddenly? Official or rogue? | 04:55 |
| dr_willis | myusuf3: so a sudo apt-get update then try again | 04:55 |
| myusuf3 | did that | 04:55 |
| dr_willis | somsip: an idiotic script | 04:55 |
| myusuf3 | will do again for arguments sake | 04:55 |
| chiluk | EyePulp, I'd backup before the fsck... but tomatoe tOmahtoe. | 04:55 |
| EyePulp | dr_willis: do I need to run a 12.04 live image in order to fsck things properly? I'm assuming the distro/release matters | 04:55 |

| unclezipper | Prock81: Linux is a huge collaborative project... There's a fairly advanced development cycle for it, if you care to read a little bit about it. It's pretty interesting. http://www.linuxfoundation.org/content/1-guide-kernel-development-process | 05:00 |
| chiluk | Prock81 bug fixes..mostly ... | 05:01 |
| unclezipper | Sorry, wrong link... http://www.linuxfoundation.org/content/21-big-picture | 05:01 |
| chiluk | Prock81 also you don't have to always be on the latest and greatest kernel.... | 05:02 |
| unclezipper | ^True. There's plenty of devices out there still running 2.x | 05:03 |
| chiluk | Prock81, basically if everything seems to be working, you probably wouldn't notice whatever fix is going into the kernel anyways. | 05:04 |
| EyePulp | dr_willis: making a bootable usb with Damn small Linux - any reason that's a bad move? | 05:05 |
| chiluk | EyePulp, why not just use Ubuntu? | 05:06 |
| betrayd | when was there last update | 05:06 |
| chiluk | EyePulp, why make your life more difficult? | 05:06 |
| EyePulp | chiluk: size of the download (I assume it's bigger than DSL) | 05:06 |
| chiluk | EyePulp, it should work fine as long as it has fsck | 05:07 |
| chiluk | or a new enough version of fsck | 05:07 |
| betrayd | their* , check how their wireless is | 05:07 |
| woodruff | Hello, how can i use apt-get install to install all dependencies automatically ? it keeps telling me "The following packages have unmet dependencies:" | 05:08 |
| chiluk | betrayd, 13.04 is running 3.8... 3.10 is in development... that's pretty damn new.. | 05:08 |
| unclezipper | woodruff: sudo apt-get -f install | 05:08 |
| betrayd | DSL? | 05:09 |
| wilee-nilee | chiluk, My raring is 3.62 | 05:10 |
| chiluk | no idea.. but wireless gets a lot of attention from ubuntu kernel devs.. I'd be surprised if it works much better elsewhere. | 05:10 |
| chiluk | wilee-nilee, you need to upgrade sir | 05:10 |
| wilee-nilee | chiluk, 3.8 is in a ppa, not the repos. | 05:10 |
| chiluk | wilee-nilee, you be smokin somthing http://packages.ubuntu.com/raring/kernel/linux-generic | 05:11 |
| dr_willis | i got 3.9 on my 13.04 box | 05:11 |
| woodruff | unclezipper : i am still getting the same messages | 05:11 |
| wilee-nilee | chiluk, he I thought you meant gnome. | 05:11 |
| dr_willis | EyePulp: i tend to use tinycorelinux. but dsl should work | 05:11 |
| unclezipper | Paste the output @ http://paste.ubuntu.com/ | 05:12 |
| dr_willis | i had to use the 3.9 kernel to fix that hdmi audio issue | 05:12 |

| jeanviana | Alguem é Brasileiro | 05:13 |
| woodruff | unclezipper : http://paste.ubuntu.com/5676230/ | 05:14 |
| woodruff | anyone? | 05:18 |
| unclezipper | Looking around... I'm probably not the best person to tackle this one. Try using build-deps instead of install | 05:19 |
| chiluk | woodruff, run apt-get install -f | 05:19 |
| chiluk | looks like you have broken dependencies.. | 05:19 |
| chiluk | run it just like that... | 05:19 |
| chiluk | woodruff, it will find unmet dependencies and install them for whatever else is broken on your machine. | 05:20 |
| Tymmn__ | Hi All | 05:20 |
| woodruff | chiluk : i just told me to remove some unused dependencies with auto remove, i did that and still have the same error | 05:21 |
| chiluk | what version of ubuntu are you running? | 05:21 |
| chiluk | and do you have any ppas installed that are screwing with it? | 05:21 |
| woodruff | chiluk : it told me i have unupgraded packages so i used upgrade… lets see if this works | 05:22 |
| chiluk | woodruff, was just going to suggest that. | 05:22 |
| chiluk | woodruff I'm heading to sleep good luck. | 05:25 |
| woodruff | thanks, cya | 05:25 |
| EyePulp | so how do I get my drive to be RW while in the recovery console? | 05:29 |
| EyePulp | some form of mount ? | 05:29 |
| unclezipper | EyePulp: If it mounted in read-only, check the physical connections to the drive first | 05:33 |
| EyePulp | like the sata connector? I can see the directory structure of the disk - I assume that means it's connected. | 05:34 |
| unclezipper | Yes, exactly... I had an issue a while back with my laptop where the sata connector wasn't plugged in all the way. It wouldn't write to the disk but it could read from it | 05:35 |
| unclezipper | Took me 4 days to figure out why, so save yourself the trouble before you do anything else | 05:35 |
| EyePulp | fair enough | 05:36 |
| woodruff | Is there any recommended mail client for ubuntu beside thunderbird? (i couldn't get attachments with the regular thunderbird version…) | 05:36 |
| dakotawulfy | woodruff might check out claw | 05:38 |
| unclezipper | EyePulp: Sorry, forgot to mention this: sudo mount -o remount,rw /partition/identifier /mount/point | 05:38 |
| dakotawulfy | woodruff claws-mail | 05:39 |
| unclezipper | That should work, assuming all is well with the hardware | 05:39 |
| himanshu_linux | Hi , I don't know how the time that was in the notification bar has gone ? how to get it back? | 05:40 |
| EyePulp | unclezipper: and presumably if there's a problem, I should be running fsck from a live cd to try and repair it… does that sound right? | 05:40 |
| unclezipper | Yes, right | 05:40 |
| woodruff | thanks all ! good night | 05:41 |
| himanshu_linux | how to get back time back in notification bar ? | 05:42 |
| Aethysius | right click on the notification bar, go to preferences/settings of the panel, and re-add the clock | 05:43 |
| === Adranz is now known as Adran | ||

| himanshu_linux | ? | 05:45 |
| Aethysius | Even if you right click on the desktop? | 05:45 |
| himanshu_linux | ok | 05:45 |
| Aethysius | Right clicking should be enabled. | 05:46 |
| Aethysius | Wait, what desktop environment are you using? | 05:46 |

| Alemimio | hey guys, i've got a shoutcast service i'm trying to start on ubuntu, and it works fine from shell, but when i run it from php's shell_exec, it won't work and i see the following error in the logs "msg:thread::start() - Could not start thread", any ideas why the script fails to start a new thread when i run it from shell_exec? | 05:55 |
| himanshu_linux | i think there will be a way in dconf-tools | 05:55 |
| Aethysius | Move your cursor to where it is blank, then try it again. | 05:55 |
| unclezipper | Alemimio: See if it runs properly when you try to run it from the terminal enclosed in parentheses | 05:56 |
| himanshu_linux | leave it Aethysius , i going to google it.. thank you for your help | 05:56 |
| Aethysius | I tried. :/ | 05:56 |
| himanshu_linux | ok :) | 05:57 |
| Alemimio | unclezipper, it does. | 05:58 |
| himanshu_linux | Aethysius : i see my 'indicator-datetime' is removed from system. I going to install it. I think while removing thunderbird and evolution from my system that too got removed | 06:01 |
| unclezipper | Perhaps, try using the exec() function instead | 06:02 |
| * Aethysius nods | 06:02 | |
| Aethysius | Why'd you remove Evolution and Thunderbird? | 06:02 |
| Alemimio | it's weird, it worked on a different server exactly the same way | 06:02 |
| unclezipper | If that doesn't work, you might be better off in a PHP IRC room | 06:03 |
| unclezipper | My knowledge is limited in that area | 06:03 |
| unclezipper | Do you know if the other server is running the same software version? | 06:03 |

| Ari-Yang | is it okay to have a laptop set to a specific freq that isn't its minimum? | 06:19 |
| Ari-Yang | min of this laptop is 931MHz, I have it set to work @ 1.2MHz. (I'm aware of the cpufreq governors btw) | 06:19 |
| kvothetech | Ari-Yang: yes...you can scale down less...actually it usually uses less than 100 percent of it's ability..so not being able to would be rather...odd | 06:24 |
| kvothetech | roasted: current kernel is 3.9.2 ...so it already did? | 06:24 |
| Ari-Yang | kvmadsen, so having it set to 1.2MHz it's actually better than having it work @ 931MHz. | 06:25 |

| kion | yes | 07:33 |
| leewees | thx | 07:34 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: did you enable 'show technical packages' | 07:34 |
| neytiri | i am having a issue with my webserver, there is secral issues, first one is phpis serving up phpmyadmin files as a downlaod, second one is namedvirtualhosts done seem to be working | 07:34 |
| leewees | lotuspsychje, thx | 07:34 |
| kion | yes | 07:34 |
| lotuspsychje | leewees: np mate | 07:34 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: nothing shows on braodcom? | 07:34 |
| tenX | neytiri: read up on enabling php on your webserver. | 07:35 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: how about checking additional drivers? | 07:35 |
| kion | i will do that | 07:35 |
| kion | one moment please | 07:35 |
| InFlames | lotuspsychje, do you have an idea how to convert the boot partition? | 07:35 |
| neytiri | tenX, php is enabled it works for everything BUT phpmyadmin | 07:36 |
| lotuspsychje | InFlames: sorry mate never installed on a mac before, but im sure if your re-ask once in a while you will get right answers | 07:36 |
| aeon-ltd | InFlames: what are you having trouble with? | 07:37 |
| lotuspsychje | InFlames: your mac shows in list on that url? | 07:37 |
| kion | found the drivers it says CD/dvd ubuntu 13.04_raring ringtail_ -rlease i 386 (20130424) is required | 07:37 |
| InFlames | lotuspsychje, the issue is i HAVE an ubuntu partition, but the only advice i get is a reinstall, it's just the boot loader, how can this be so hard? | 07:37 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: yes try to add the cd as software source, then try a sudo apt-get update | 07:38 |
| aeon-ltd | InFlames: what's wrong with the bootloader? | 07:38 |
| kion | i can not find how to do that | 07:38 |
| InFlames | aeon-ltd, the mac pro can't read it because it handles got, but it's using mbr | 07:38 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: software centre, choose 'software sources' ontop | 07:39 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: then in software sources add your cd as source | 07:39 |
| kion | there is no software sources | 07:39 |
| aeon-ltd | InFlames: so you can get to osx but not ubuntu | 07:39 |
| aeon-ltd | InFlames: were you using refit before? | 07:39 |
| tenX | neytiri: check the php apache config, is it restricted to specific folders maybe? | 07:39 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: tab 'edit' on software centre | 07:39 |
| InFlames | aeon-ltd, i have refit running via a usb, i want to eventually set it up via grub instead | 07:40 |
| InFlames | but it can't see the partition | 07:40 |
| aeon-ltd | InFlames: the goal is - grub to load everything? why? | 07:40 |
| kion | there is no edit | 07:40 |
| InFlames | the goal is to get the damn thing working :/ | 07:40 |
| InFlames | i don't care THAT much how | 07:40 |
| neytiri | tenX, i have checked it several times before on other server i have had the exact same issue on, it usually resulted with me throwing the server out the window | 07:40 |
| InFlames | preferably would be without refit, it's slow | 07:40 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: you opened software centre right? | 07:41 |
| kion | yes | 07:41 |
| aeon-ltd | InFlames: is a few seconds really worth the trouble? | 07:41 |
| InFlames | aeon-ltd, the fact remains it doesn't work even with refit | 07:41 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: now you know in unity all stuff shows in the top panel, there you can find 'edit' | 07:42 |
| tenX | neytiri: and other php placed on the same directory hierarchy works? | 07:42 |
| kion | got it | 07:42 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: check 'additional drivers' first | 07:43 |
| neytiri | php in the /var/www works | 07:43 |
| neytiri | but phpmyadmin is aliased and that doenst work | 07:43 |
| alexxxa | How do I play mms video protocol directly embed in firefox instead of using vlc? | 07:43 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: maybe your broadcom shows in list | 07:43 |
| kion | ok | 07:43 |
| Jordan_U | alexxxa: There is a VLC plugin for Firefox. | 07:43 |
| tenX | neytiri: execution bits? | 07:44 |
| kion | ok one moment | 07:44 |
| neytiri | all looked correct | 07:44 |
| neytiri | phpmyadmin was insatlled using apt-get install phpmyadmin | 07:44 |
| alexxxa | So, when I click on link, it opens the windows whos asking for the app to open the protocol | 07:45 |
| alexxxa | doesnt play instantly within the firefox | 07:45 |
| tenX | neytiri: strange | 07:46 |
| kion | it tells me waiting for required medium | 07:46 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: insert your cdrom? | 07:46 |
| kion | cd rom? of what | 07:46 |
| tenX | neytiri: sounds pretty much like a configuration mistake you ran over | 07:46 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: of ubuntu | 07:46 |
| kion | i didnt use a cd rom | 07:47 |
| kion | i used a flash drive | 07:47 |
| neytiri | its the default confoguration and this has happined on every server i have tried iton | 07:47 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: oh yes insert usb then | 07:47 |
| kion | ok it isn't doing anything | 07:48 |
| tenX | neytiri: but for php some steps need to be taken | 07:48 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: if you got cable to your laptop you can install from web too | 07:48 |
| kion | install ubuntu again? | 07:48 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: no, get your broadcom drivers | 07:48 |
| kion | i dont think they have them for linux | 07:49 |
| InFlames | so aeon-ltd, any ideas? | 07:49 |
| lotuspsychje | kion:... if you dont think they got it, why do you want help here then? | 07:50 |
| kion | because obviously linux supports it but it does not mean the broadcom has a linux download | 07:50 |
| auronandace | !b43 | kion | 07:51 |
| ubottu | kion: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 07:51 |
| Jordan_U | kion: Nobody suggested downloading anything from Broadcom. | 07:51 |
| kion | where else would i download the drivers because i can't from software center | 07:51 |
| lotuspsychje | InFlames: did you check external links on the mac url? | 07:52 |
| Jordan_U | kion: You can from Software Center. | 07:52 |
| kion | no i can't i just tried it | 07:52 |
| Jordan_U | kion: You just need to be connected to the internet via other means (like ethernet). | 07:52 |
| kion | i am i just tried it it did not work | 07:52 |
| Jordan_U | kion: Go to the "Software Sources" section of Software Center and uncheck your Ubuntu install media. | 07:54 |
| kion | ok | 07:54 |
| Jordan_U | kion: I would give you more step by step directions but I don't have a machine with Software Center installed at the moment. | 07:55 |
| kion | there is nothing cheaked i go to addition drivers click install it says waiting for medium | 07:55 |
| Jordan_U | kion: Please post a screenshot of the "Ubuntu Software" tab of Software Sources. | 07:56 |
| Jordan_U | !screenshot | kion | 07:56 |

| kvothetech | kion: try changing your /etc/apt/sources.list to a url instead of a cd | 07:58 |
| kion | i have no idea how to do that | 07:58 |
| Antar | Hello | 07:59 |
| Jordan_U | kion: It should be easy to solve this via Software Center, if it's not then well walk you through manually editing configuration files. | 07:59 |
| kvothetech | Antar: hi | 07:59 |
| Antar | how can i install ubuntu in Pre-installed windows 8 | 07:59 |
| Antar | hi | 07:59 |

| kvothetech | Antar: download an iso of hat you want use something like unetbootin (though i thikn it's broken for later kernels/sysconfigs) to write it to an sio boot to the iso install reboot? | 08:00 |
| kvothetech | InFlames: whats the issue? | 08:01 |
| lotuspsychje | Jordan_U: this might be such warning he gets: http://askubuntu.com/questions/221211/waiting-for-required-medium-software-center | 08:01 |
| kion | it says missing destination file operand after /etc/apt/sources/list/backup | 08:01 |
| kion | whoops that was . after cources and list | 08:01 |
| InFlames | kvothetech, mac pro doesn't recognize mgr partitioned ubuntu from my pc | 08:02 |
| kion | typo | 08:02 |
| Jordan_U | kion: Before you continue with manual editing, did you see my request for a screenshot earlier? | 08:02 |
| tony | Question: I installed wireshark version 1.8.2-1 from a ppa on launcpad for the multiple interface capture reason. Now my problem is the interface which i monitor is up but no ip for the reason is used the the virtualbox VM for bridge interface. the wireshark can't capture packet.but the wireshark in the official ubuntu repo does..may i ask if any solution rather than reverting to official ubuntu repo package | 08:02 |
| kion | i am getting that to you right now | 08:02 |
| InFlames | kvothetech, if anything reminds me never to buy a mac again, it's things like this | 08:02 |
| kvothetech | InFlames: theres about 2 billion other reasons to avoid apple and ms...anyway...so you cant see your partitions? | 08:03 |
| InFlames | kvothetech, i know, this one is literally stopping me from using the machine however…grub starts and it just goes into grub rescue | 08:04 |
| lotuspsychje | tony: maybe the guys from #wireshark know? | 08:04 |
| kvothetech | tony: does it throw the card in promisucous mode monitor mode doesn't get an IP ..it's not supposed to | 08:05 |
| kvothetech | InFlames: kk whats your / partition and /boot? /dev/sda1 and 2? | 08:06 |

| BerndDasBrot | sry for my bad english | 08:06 |
| Jordan_U | kion: That's not the "Software Sources" section of Software Center. | 08:06 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 08:07 |
| kvothetech | InFlames: root(hd0,0) <enter> followed by initrd <your init if you have one> <enter> kernel <your kernel> produces what | 08:07 |
| InFlames | kvothetech, from livecd? | 08:07 |
| kvothetech | InFlames: from the grub rescue | 08:07 |
| kion | http://imagebin.org/258048 | 08:08 |
| lotuspsychje | BerndDasBrot: i had also issues on ati x800 with screen distortions, did you update your system? | 08:08 |
| Jordan_U | kvothetech: Command not found because those instructions are wrong in multiple ways. | 08:08 |
| BerndDasBrot | yes | 08:08 |
| InFlames | oh let me fire it up | 08:08 |
| BerndDasBrot | the software actuall thing say me i there is no update left | 08:08 |

| Phryq | hey, is there something like a 'task manager' for ubuntu? | 08:08 |
| starkiller | llo | 08:08 |
| starkiller | hello | 08:08 |

| starkiller | but im on xubuntu | 08:09 |
| Phryq | ok, I have something called System Monitor, thanks guys | 08:10 |
| Jordan_U | kvothetech: This is grub2, you're giving instructions which would (almost) work with a functioning grub legacy installation. If InFlames were using grub legacy with the same problem they currently have they would be at a screen saying "error 18" with no input possible at all (no rescue shell). | 08:10 |
| BerndDasBrot | what is the reason for the green things in the left upper corner menu? | 08:10 |
| lotuspsychje | BerndDasBrot: how about additional drivers? can you choose from there? | 08:10 |
| BerndDasBrot | additional drivers? where? sry im a noob | 08:10 |
| Jordan_U | kion: Better, yes. Now please post a screenshot of that same window with the "Ubuntu Software" tab selected. | 08:10 |

| starkiller | im on xubuntu when i right click on a folder nothing happends XD | 08:14 |
| Jordan_U | kion: Great. Have you tried unchecking "CDROM with Ubuntu 13.04 'Raring Ringtail' " ? | 08:14 |
| dr_willis | starkiller: between 2 linux boxs or linux and windows? | 08:14 |
| BerndDasBrot | from the menu with the green things? | 08:14 |
| Jordan_U | kion: Just doing that should stop it from asking you to insert a disk | 08:14 |
| InFlames | kvothetech, weirdly enough, now i just get a blinking cursor, maybe something has completely broke the system now | 08:14 |
| lotuspsychje | BerndDasBrot: yes so we get an idea of what it actually is | 08:14 |

| c2tarun | Hi friends, I remember few years back there was a feature in Ubuntu that when I put my pointer over a song it starts playing till I keep my pointer there. How can I get that feature in Ubuntu 13.04? | 08:23 |

| c2tarun | histo, I don't think so. Let me chk again | 08:24 |
| lotuspsychje | BerndDasBrot: you can install unity tweak tool for tweaking your system | 08:24 |
| Phryq | I accidentally killed 7794 though; hope it wasn't too important! ;) | 08:25 |
| lotuspsychje | kion: you get same medium error on trying the broadcom install? | 08:25 |
| c2tarun | histo, well at least song is not playing when I am putting pointer over it. | 08:25 |
| histo | Phryq: perhaps it's dead already then.. ps aux | grep torchat | 08:25 |
| c2tarun | histo, do you have this feature? | 08:25 |
| histo | c2tarun: in the dash or in the file browser? | 08:25 |

| histo | Phryq: you're good now it's not running | 08:27 |
| Phryq | so I guess I should kill 7699? | 08:27 |
| BerndDasBrot | but how can i disablethe music search | 08:27 |
| histo | Phryq: no 7699 is the grep pid | 08:27 |
| histo | !kill | Phryq | 08:27 |

| histo | kion: system settings > hardware ??? They keep moving it around in each version | 08:35 |
| c2tarun | histo, yeah, there is no hardware, what are you suggesting him for? | 08:36 |
| kion | nope no hardware | 08:36 |
| InFlames | kvothetech, i fixed it with the refit partition manager | 08:36 |
| histo | kion: in a terminal try jockey-gtk | 08:36 |

| histo | c2tarun: where the stupid additional drivers application got moved to | 08:36 |
| kion | ok | 08:37 |
| c2tarun | histo, its by the name of additional drivers :) | 08:37 |
| c2tarun | at same place | 08:37 |
| InFlames | :] | 08:37 |
| histo | c2tarun: Good they moved it back now... with a different name. | 08:37 |
| histo | kion: do you have an option there to add firmware for your broadcom card? | 08:37 |
| BerndDasBrot | the screenshot doesnt work:( | 08:38 |
| robotti | does anybody know why no sound on ubuntu 13.04 using HDMI? | 08:38 |
| histo | !sound | robotti | 08:38 |
| ubottu | robotti: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 08:38 |
| * c2tarun think that Ubuntu is surviving so much change because its used by the people who are ready to adapt to something new. Digg and Windows 8 is perfect example of Canonical doing wrong. | 08:38 | |

| BerndDasBrot | @histo i determinate the graphics card (Mobility Radeon X700) | 08:47 |

| Jordan_U | kion: Please run "sudo apt-get update" in a terminal, then go back to the hardware drivers tab and I expect you will see options for your card again. | 08:52 |
| histo | kion: do you have internet access? | 08:52 |
| histo | kion: if so sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter should pull the proper firmware | 08:52 |

| histo | kion: how exactly did you run apt-get update with no internet then? I was under the impression that you had internet via wire etc... | 08:59 |
| histo | robotti: okay then why ask in here if you already know it's a bug? | 08:59 |

| Jordan_U | histo: At first Hardware Drivers was showing a "driver" available 9whcn kion first came in) but it couldn't install it because when kion tried to install it they were asked to insert a CD. After unchecking the CD in the software sources they no longer see "drivers" available. My guess is that the drivers are not listed because apt sees no packages available at all, as the CD entry has been removed and the available packages from ... | 08:59 |
| kion | i had it and then it was gone | 09:00 |
| Jordan_U | ... the internet based repositories aren't known because a succcessfull "apt-get update" has not happened yet. | 09:00 |

| jrtappers | beginner_, Yes, its less buggy and glichy than CCC | 09:39 |
| jrtappers | Bitbyte, Sorry for the delay, For a simple server I find Zentyal good | 09:40 |
| pero_p | hi, assume i have downloading a torrent file. if i run an upgrade for libtorrent(the torrent downloader uses libtorrent) what happens? do the download corrupt or restart or what?! | 09:40 |
| Bitbyte | ill give it a god | 09:40 |
| Bitbyte | thanks anyway | 09:40 |
| jrtappers | Bitbyte, The free version is good, its based on ubuntu | 09:41 |
| beginner_ | jrtappers: i always get "The selected configuration for displays could not be applied: required virtual size does not fit available size: requested=(3600, 1080), minimum=(320, 200), maximum=(3360, 1680)", like about a million others. i tried to google that message, didn't find a solution. | 09:41 |
| pero_p | beginner_, what a big display LOL | 09:42 |
| beginner_ | jrtappers: but it seems like it doesn't want different resolutions, but only twice the same one. | 09:42 |
| jrtappers | beginner_, You have a virtual "Desktop" and your screens, they are put together to give the "Desktop" | 09:42 |
| beginner_ | pero_p: one 22 inc and one 24 inch display. not too extraordinary i think? | 09:42 |
| m4jid | hi | 09:42 |
| pero_p | m4jid, salam :D | 09:42 |
| m4jid | i have dell latitude e6500 with broadcom wireless chipser | 09:42 |
| jrtappers | beginner_, Changing the Size of the desktop is the only reason I use CCC | 09:42 |
| pero_p | beginner_, yeah | 09:42 |
| m4jid | i installed broadcom sta driver but not working everytime i boot up?!! | 09:43 |
| beginner_ | jrtappers: yes, and i want two separate desktops. that seems like the only way to get two separate resolutions running. extending one desktop to cover two monitors is not a problem, but looks very bad. | 09:43 |
| jrtappers | beginner_, two desktops is odd to use, you want two screens of different sizes, change it in CCC to big sizes, then to normal in Displays | 09:44 |
| m4jid | any help ? | 09:44 |
| pero_p | m4jid, maybe you should disable default ubuntu driver and enable your current installed driver?@ | 09:44 |
| m4jid | how? | 09:44 |

| qwebirc255852 | greetings, is it possible to to specify a DNS server per IP range/route ? I have my LAN, a WIFI-WAN, and internet. The WIFI-WAN connents to a WUG and they have their own domain names (somesite.ptawag = 172.x.y.z). So I want all connections 172.x.y.z/16 to use DNS 172.1.1.1, and the rest to use my ISP DNS. thanks in advance | 09:45 |
| jrtappers | pero_p, Depends, I would wait till it finnishes | 09:45 |
| dr_willis | pero_p: Ive never seen it being an issue | 09:46 |
| lnxnt | dr_willis: don't know the disk was lying around and I needed some "dd" so I just booted that. Wasn't there any sata 7 years ago? ;) | 09:46 |
| dr_willis | lnxnt: I dont think so | 09:46 |
| Bitbyte | jrtappers: zentyal looks good but includes a full reinstall, would have thought ubuntu server has these feautres | 09:46 |
| lnxnt | oh ok ^^ | 09:46 |
| lnxnt | hmm well is there a way to get it working? | 09:46 |
| jrtappers | Bitbyte, It probably does, but Zentyal makes it a lot easier :D and | 09:46 |
| Bitbyte | hahah fair do's | 09:47 |
| pero_p | jrtappers, tnx | 09:47 |
| beginner_ | jrtappers: i'll try that again. but last time i tried setting different resolution for both screens in CCC, it automatically changed the "mode" to "multiple desktops" (where previously it was "one desktop over multiple screens"), then after rebooting, ubuntu system settings didn't detect the second display at all ... | 09:47 |
| jrtappers | Bitbyte, Its based on ubuntu, so you can transfer your knowledge | 09:47 |
| pero_p | dr_willis, i just wanted to know how linux handle these situations | 09:47 |
| jrtappers | pero_p, This is not about linux as much as the program your using | 09:48 |

| jrtappers | m4jid, Does it work at any time? | 09:48 |
| m4jid | yes | 09:48 |
| jrtappers | m4jid, What do you do to get it to work? | 09:48 |
| Bitbyte | jrtappers: I'm gunner take a look at this http://www.thefanclub.co.za/how-to/how-setup-ubuntu-business-box-server-ubb-part-1 and then try zentyal later | 09:48 |
| m4jid | i just install from Hardware drivers in ubuntu | 09:49 |
| jrtappers | Bitbyte, Ok | 09:49 |
| m4jid | sometime it works and sometimes not | 09:49 |
| jrtappers | m4jid, is it working now? | 09:49 |
| m4jid | i think maybe the driver is blacklisted? | 09:49 |
| m4jid | no :( | 09:49 |
| Bitbyte | the business box looks like a good setup | 09:49 |
| pero_p | dr_willis, i'm thinking like you, but testing it with a 10GB downloaded torrent would cause crying... :D | 09:50 |

| MysticalBurrito | I've installed ubuntu 13.04 on my desktop PC and after loging on my desktop is blank, all I have is a cursor and wallpaper displayed on my screen, i've let it stay like that for a few hours and this dosn't fix the problem | 10:56 |
| devjustforfun_ | in windows irc nobody there or nobody want to help. | 10:57 |
| Dr_willis | MysticalBurrito, seen that issue mentione in here by many differnt people with differnt hardware and setups. I think its due to some confusion with the video card drivers | 10:57 |
| Dr_willis | MysticalBurrito, what is your video card? | 10:57 |
| bekks | devjustforfun_: There are 441 people in that channel. | 10:57 |
| MysticalBurrito | This is an older PC, it's a dell Dimension 4600 | 10:57 |
| oppa | How do you change your nickname? | 10:57 |
| MysticalBurrito | the graphics card is integrated | 10:58 |
| Dr_willis | /nick I_like_to_read_irc_guides | 10:58 |
| Dr_willis | MysticalBurrito, so:) it still has a chipset... | 10:58 |
| Dr_willis | lspci will show the chipset most likely | 10:58 |
| devjustforfun_ | <bekks> i decide just grub windows and reinstall it from scratch use my notebook key | 10:58 |
| devjustforfun_ | <bekks> and not use asus recovery | 10:59 |
| MysticalBurrito | Is it possible to install a different environment in a non-graphical interface? | 10:59 |
| oppa | oh thanks Dr_willis! sorry, i only just downloaded this | 10:59 |
| bekks | devjustforfun_: Then just do it, since you seem to have windows installation media handy. | 10:59 |
| devjustforfun_ | <bekks> i was downloaded it few minute ago. | 11:00 |
| MysticalBurrito | i have a 14.04.1 CD but my 2nd IDE expansion slot is bad and won't detect my CD drives. :/ | 11:00 |

| umc | guys, I have an ubuntu server 10.04.4 LTS installed on a machine, with apache, mysql, bind, postfix, etc. Is it safe do to an upgrade ? it keeps asking me for a while... or should I install fresh ? If I upgrade, will all my services keep running ? or will it break them ? | 11:00 |
| bekks | MysticalBurrito: There is no 14.04.1 so far. | 11:00 |
| Dr_willis | MysticalBurrito, sudo apt-get install whateveryouwant-desktop for the differnt desktops... | 11:00 |
| Dr_willis | MysticalBurrito, such as 'lubuntu-desktop' | 11:01 |
| oppa | Why are there so many people in this room who don't say anything? | 11:01 |
| MysticalBurrito | I prefer the lubuntu desktop, that is what I am running on this laptop with ubuntu right now | 11:01 |
| bekks | umc: Create a backup before, and then update to 12.04 | 11:01 |
| MysticalBurrito | I meant to say I have a 12.04.1 CD | 11:01 |
| Dr_willis | oppa, this channel is world wide.. so its 7am for me.. may be 2am for others. ;) | 11:02 |

| umc | bekks: already made manual backups of config files, databases, home dirs, etc. is there an additional backup tool or something that you recommend ? | 11:02 |
| oppa | Ohh I see. 9pm here, stupid Australia. | 11:02 |
| MysticalBurrito | how do I switch to a non-graphical interface to install a new desktop environment? | 11:03 |

| Dr_willis | are you using any hdmi/vga/other adaptors? | 11:17 |
| streulma | no, on a Dell just vga | 11:17 |
| Dr_willis | So its a PC using a vga cable to a VGA port on a normal wide screen LCD tv? | 11:17 |
| streulma | yes | 11:18 |

| streulma | Intel | 11:18 |
| streulma | yes, with my Mac | 11:18 |
| Dr_willis | it pays to be a bit more verbose in what you say on IRC... | 11:19 |
| Dr_willis | You mean with your Apple Computer - the Widescreen tv gets the proper res with the same vga cable? | 11:19 |

| PrototypeX29A | hi | 11:44 |
| PrototypeX29A | i just got forced to do a dist-upgrade to 12.04. shouldn't be there a possibility to do another one? | 11:45 |
| PrototypeX29A | none are shown in the update manager | 11:45 |
| Daekdroom | PrototypeX29A, is your software sources configured to display only LTS updates? | 11:46 |
| PrototypeX29A | 13.04 should be out be now, right? | 11:46 |
| PrototypeX29A | Daekdroom: i didn't configure it that way | 11:46 |
| Dr_willis | it only suggests lts to lts updates.. | 11:46 |
| Daekdroom | Yeah, but you should be displayed a12.10 update | 11:46 |
| Daekdroom | And it's configured to display LTS only updates by default. | 11:46 |
| Dr_willis | you can go to 12.10 then 13.04 if you want | 11:46 |
| PrototypeX29A | but my configuration usually gets fridged with every dist-upgrade so i won't rule out it got that setting by a bug | 11:47 |
| Daekdroom | It's been the default for quite awhile. No bug. | 11:47 |
| PrototypeX29A | Daekdroom: didn't even know it is possible to go directly from one LTS to another | 11:49 |
| silv3r_m00n1 | is /etc/fstab deprecated ? ubuntu does not seem to use the mount options specified in the file and mounts it own way | 11:49 |
| SwedeMike | silv3r_m00n1: I use fstab anyway, and it does what I expect it to do. | 11:50 |
| silv3r_m00n1 | i wrote this, UUID=13f35f59-f023-4d98-b06f-9dfaebefd6c1 /media/13f35f59-f023-4d98-b06f-9dfaebefd6c1/ ext4 errors=remount-ro,auto,exec,rw,user 0 0 but it mounts the partition with noexec | 11:50 |
| SwedeMike | silv3r_m00n1: try mounting it outside of /media to make sure. umount it manually, then mount it using only "mount <path>" | 11:51 |
| silv3r_m00n1 | did, still mounts with noexec | 11:53 |
| PrototypeX29A | ok, i managed to unlock the non-LTS-upgrades and now I am stuck again with the message box asking me "Do you want to start the upgrade" unfortunately this box is too big for my screen and i don't know how to proceed | 11:56 |
| PrototypeX29A | blindly hitting tab and enter did the job, still this i would consider a usability-issue :D | 11:57 |
| Dr_willis | PrototypeX29A, its bigger then your X display? thats weird.. You can alt-click and drag dialogs around until you see the OK button perhaps | 11:57 |
| PrototypeX29A | Dr_willis: i already managed to proceed, tansk | 11:58 |

| hio | there isn't even any visual cue when I click on an icon | 12:01 |

| PrototypeX29A | unity didn't stay more than half an hour with me | 12:02 |
| PrototypeX29A | going to try mate soon, i guess | 12:02 |
| hio | and then the retarded decision to emulate the global top menu like MacOS does. Just because. There is no actual benefit, but it's c00l, so what right? | 12:02 |
| ceti331_ | i use unity mainly for that reason. i grew up on the Amiga which had a mac style menu - i have always utterly despised the windows menu style | 12:03 |
| llutz | take the "i like/i dislike" to #ubuntu-offtopic pls | 12:03 |
| hio | ceti331_, no offense but if you like using Macs, I think you just disqualified yourself as a human being | 12:03 |
| Dr_willis | with the gnome devs in 3.8 gnome having their own official gnome2 ish theme/mode.. i imagine these other gnome2 forks will vanish | 12:03 |

| Dr_willis | ;) | 12:04 |
| hio | Amiga, is that like itunes? | 12:04 |
| ceti331_ | Amiga, AtartST, NeXT (and mac) all didn't have the windows style menu | 12:04 |
| hio | I'm just messing with you, sorry ;) | 12:04 |
| ceti331_ | global-menu is a good decision in ubuntu unity | 12:05 |
| light32 | yeah thats right | 12:05 |
| hio | yeah if you like shitty decisions, I guess the global menu is a good decision | 12:06 |
| ceti331_ | fittts law ftw | 12:06 |
| ceti331_ | it avoids wasting screenspace for menus on unfocussed windows | 12:06 |
| Dr_willis | hio, please troll elsewhere.. and rant where people care.. (not here) | 12:06 |
| hio | yeah, those 20pixels are really making the difference | 12:06 |
| ceti331_ | hio, its clutter | 12:06 |
| hio | you save 20 pixels, you lose normal interaction that everybody on the planet knows and loves | 12:06 |

| doogy2004 | umc, I usually use something like this "sudo mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md0 --level=5 --raid-devices=3 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1 /dev/sda1" | 12:51 |
| umc | if I created my partitions (with parted) and formatted my 2 HDDs before creating the raid partition, do I still need to format /dev/md5 (the new partition) after I added my partitions to it (/dev/sdb1 and /dev/sdd1) ? | 12:51 |
| Guest28531 | k | 12:51 |
| x-fak | th0r , yeah that's why i downloaded this ISO on the download page, it was not clear though, but anyway | 12:51 |
| doogy2004 | umc: you can partition the drives before adding them to the raid, it's your choice.. but any formatting will be overwritten once the array is built | 12:52 |
| umc | so I need to format the raid partition as well | 12:52 |
| doogy2004 | umc: add your disks to the array, then format the array | 12:52 |
| umc | currently cat /proc/mdstat tells me it's resyncing | 12:53 |
| th0r | x-fak, I would give the iso another shot. Delete the vm and start over from scratch. I always pad the available memory in the vm by a bit. I am curious to see if you get ubuntu installed as I have tried several other distros recently and have not been able to install any of them in vm | 12:53 |
| giraffe | I like llamas | 12:53 |
| doogy2004 | umc: yep, you can format and use it while that is running, it will just be slow untill the syncing finishes | 12:53 |
| umc | and it's just at 1 %. can I format the partition before the resync finishes ? | 12:53 |
| th0r | x-fak, I am using VirtualBox for my vm's. | 12:53 |
| doogy2004 | bitbyte: hmm, i can't say that i've seen that before, what did you run before getting that message? | 12:54 |
| doogy2004 | umc: yes, it will just be slower than "normal" :) | 12:54 |
| x-fak | th0r i've tried 4 times to reinstall under vmware workstation | 12:55 |
| bitbyte | doogy2004: i was running the apt-get update && upgrade | 12:55 |
| umc | alright, so far so good, thanks doogy2004. it's the first time I'm adding a new HDD to an existing linux installation and the first time I'm making a new raid partition without doing it from the linux installer... I'm a bit nervous :) | 12:55 |
| BluesKaj | Hiyas all | 12:56 |
| doogy2004 | umc: it's all good, that was one of the first thinks that I learned how to do when learning Linux | 12:56 |
| x-fak | th0r , and also what do you mean by "I always pad the available memory in the vm by a bit", you extend the avalaible RAM for the VM? i've tried with 512MB and with 1GB, same | 12:56 |
| OerHeks | x-fak, maybe wmware tools is your solution, see >> http://www.liberiangeek.net/2013/03/how-to-quickly-install-vmware-tools-in-ubuntu-13-04-raring-ringtail/ | 12:56 |
| doogy2004 | bitbyte: give "apt-get clean" a try | 12:56 |
| th0r | x-fak, right, I define the vm with a bit more ram than the suggested amount. I only have a netbook so am limited in that regard, but give the vm as much as I can. | 12:57 |
| bitbyte | doogy2004: will do thnaks | 12:57 |
| doogy2004 | bitbyte: Check this out --> http://askubuntu.com/questions/30072/how-do-i-fix-a-problem-with-mergelist-or-status-file-could-not-be-parsed-err | 12:57 |
| x-fak | OerHeks , let me check this | 12:58 |
| doogy2004 | looks like they recommend deleting the files in /var/lib/apt/lists/* then run an update again | 12:58 |
| doogy2004 | umc: please keep in mind that RAID is not a backup :) RAID is used for availability and performance, but should never be used as a "backup" solution | 12:59 |
| Luke23ae | hi | 12:59 |
| x-fak | otherwise, can i upgrade FROM the version 8 heron to the 12.10? | 13:00 |
| Luke23ae | how do I remove a repository if I installed it with add-apt-repository ? | 13:00 |
| umc | doogy2004: I added this new raid partition for storage, and I chose raid1 for the extra safety | 13:00 |
| Luke23ae | *from the command line | 13:00 |
| OerHeks | Luke23ae, ppa-purge | 13:00 |
| umc | doogy2004: can't really backup all the data from there since I don't have that much space. for now raid1 will have to do | 13:00 |
| OerHeks | !ppapurge | 13:00 |
| Luke23ae | tried that coomand not found | 13:00 |
| OerHeks | !ppa-purge | 13:00 |
| 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 | 13:00 |
| Luke23ae | useing ubuntu 11.10 | 13:01 |
| OerHeks | Luke23ae, you need to install it first, it is not standard installed AFAIK | 13:01 |
| OerHeks | Luke23ae, else you can delete the repo in softwarecentre/sources, but then you will have the files as they were. | 13:02 |
| doogy2004 | umc: i understand, just wanted to make sure you're aware :) | 13:02 |
| umc | I'm aware, thanks :) for now it's the best I can do | 13:02 |
| Luke23ae | OerHeks: I think the repo is in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/c_falco-mame-oneiric.list - can I just remove that folder and I'm fine? | 13:03 |
| Luke23ae | ppa-purge has unmet dependencies | 13:03 |
| cfhowlett | Luke23ae, 11.10 has reached end of life ... | 13:03 |
| Luke23ae | cfhowlett: I'm a beginner, how do I update, can I just use apt-get update? | 13:04 |
| === marko-_-- is now known as marko-_- | ||
| umc | Luke23ae: I usually do 'sudo aptitude update' and then 'sudo aptitude safe-upgrade' | 13:04 |
| Riley | lek23ae yes run apt-get update to refresh the repos and then apt-get upgrade to update the packages | 13:04 |
| somsip | !aptitude | umc | 13:05 |
| ubottu | umc: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. You may encounter problems on multiarch installs (11.10 and 12.04) as aptitude cannot handle the same package with different architectures being installed at the same time. See http://pad.lv/831768 for more information. | 13:05 |
| Luke23ae | thank you guys | 13:05 |
| cfhowlett | Luke23ae, couple of decision points for you: for the latest, greatest shiniest distro, install 13.04. For long term support ( 5 years) get 12.04 | 13:05 |
| umc | alright, if the elders say so, then use apt-get instead of aptitude :) | 13:05 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | what is the command to make a terminal widows open to run a command, something -e command ? | 13:05 |
| Luke23ae | I want long term support, how can I tell him to upgrade to 12.04 and not to 13.04? | 13:06 |
| doogy2004 | i always use aptitude, it seems to handle automatically installed packages better than apt | 13:06 |
| Riley | Roy_Newbie_13-04 ctl alt t | 13:06 |
| doogy2004 | alway more than one way to do the same thing :) | 13:06 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | im making a .desktop | 13:06 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | to run encfs ~/.encrypted ~/Private | 13:06 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | and the terminal wont stay open | 13:07 |
| BluesKaj | Roy_Newbie_13-04, alt+f2 , type terminal | 13:07 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | this isnt my computer, im making this for someone who is not smart and wont remember commands and dont like using terminal | 13:07 |
| mpathy | Hey there.. I made hard drive images with ddrescue, and want to make a backup of them but dont have enough space left then.. How can I make a tar.gz etc. on the fly while copying on another drive? | 13:08 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | i need an icon so when he clicks it will run "encfs ~/.encrypted ~/Private" in a terminal and ask him for the password .... not close the very milli second it opens | 13:09 |
| umc | doogy2004: my existing raid partitions are described like this in /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf: 'ARRAY /dev/md1 level=raid1 num-devices=2 UUID=...' but this tutorial I'm reading gives me an example like 'ARRAY /dev/md/3 metadata=1.2 UUID=... name=master-db:3' which is obviously different. can I leave this partition as well in the same format I have them with the UUID I got from mdadm --query --detail /dev/md5 ? | 13:09 |
| BluesKaj | Roy_Newbie_13-04, so the terminal is crashing | 13:10 |

| doogy2004 | umc: after the array is created run this to add it to mdadm.conf "sudo mdadm --detail --scan >> /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf" | 13:11 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | what am i doing wrong? http://paste.ubuntu.com/5677161/ | 13:11 |
| Muelli | Farnell seems to ship for free to the UK. | 13:13 |
| doogy2004 | umc: you can then use "blkid" to find the UUID of your formatted array | 13:13 |
| Muelli | -EWIN | 13:13 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | BluesKaj http://paste.ubuntu.com/5677161/ | 13:13 |

| Elvano | I have ubuntu installed on my netbook, but for some unknown reason I'm not able to connect to a certain wireless network (while to others I can) | 13:15 |
| Elvano | I can detect the network and have the correct wkey | 13:15 |
| umc | doogy2004: thank you very much for your help. partition is created, added, mounted, added to /etc/fstab, etc. It's not at 6.3 resync so I'll let it do it's thing | 13:18 |
| umc | this went much better than I expected :) | 13:18 |
| doogy2004 | umc: np, better than expected is always good :) | 13:19 |

| McQueen | on firefox | 13:25 |
| Capprentice | McQueen, check that video with Google Chrome :) | 13:26 |
| Capprentice | If that does not fail then downgrade or upgrade flash player. | 13:27 |
| McQueen | Capprentice, there is not a stable chrome version for ubuntu 13.04 64 ibt :) | 13:27 |
| Capprentice | Install the older one provided for 12.10, it will work | 13:27 |

| Capprentice | Roy, there is a software Cryptkeeper, have you checked that ?? | 13:28 |
| Capprentice | That might be useful. | 13:28 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | i dont see how to run it, its installed | 13:28 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | cant remember the otherone someone told me, but it sucked, didnt work, it had a lock icon and needed a ppa to install | 13:29 |
| ghking | what does ”file too short“ means? | 13:29 |
| Roy_Newbie_13-04 | dash show Cryptkeeper, i click it and nothing | 13:30 |
| Capprentice | Roy, On my system it works like a alternative to Folder Lock on Windows and it works great. | 13:30 |

| hoyang | How to scan all of i386 package on my system? i want remove --purge all of them. | 13:32 |
| Roy_Learning | is Cryptkeeper a gui | 13:32 |
| Capprentice | McQueen, If you have installed the packages from a ppa then "sudo ppa-purge ppa_name" will remove everything came from that ppa and install the default ones. The other way is if you used Synaptic or Software Center you can check the history and completely remove all those. | 13:32 |

| Roy1 | dopie i use vmware workstation 9.0.2 on ubuntu 13.04, only issue is a gtk issue ONLY for one button and that is to register, so i backed up the registration from a different laptop with a different os (backtrack) and copy the file to ubuntu 13.04 and i can play them now | 13:38 |
| chm_cn | :) | 13:38 |
| rogue833 | it only shows moving to interna de bahia but nothing happens | 13:38 |
| rogue833 | anyone know? | 13:38 |
| Capprentice | Roy, Here it is : http://imgur.com/u7A76hJ | 13:38 |
| Capprentice | Roy1, you need to create a Encrypted folder first using Cryptkeeper, see this screenshot :http://imgur.com/u7A76hJ | 13:40 |
| Roy1 | Capprentice all ready got that going , i can use it all command line, but i want to find a gui to mannage it or make desktop icons to do the command line stuff | 13:42 |
| Roy1 | does Cryptkeeper use encfs? | 13:42 |
| Capprentice | Yes Roy1. | 13:42 |
| Relaxation | How would I go about writing a program in C that shows all the active processes on the OS? | 13:43 |
| kvothetech | Relaxation: ps ax | 13:43 |
| expertarun | hello | 13:43 |
| kvothetech | Relaxation: you could call that | 13:43 |
| Relaxation | What's ps ax? | 13:43 |
| Capprentice | Roy1, are you using VMware on Ubuntu 13 ? | 13:44 |
| Roy1 | yes Capprentice, but i will need to give u my registration file | 13:44 |
| cfhowlett | expertarun, greetings | 13:44 |
| kvothetech | Relaxation: lists system processes...system("ps x"); i think | 13:44 |
| Capprentice | Roy1, no need. I use KVM and VirtualBox :) | 13:45 |
| expertarun | hey guys my ubuntu doesn't start login screen till many hours also and i can't start my user | 13:45 |
| kvothetech | expertarun: ? | 13:46 |
| expertarun | kvothetech: my ubuntu doesn't start login screen till many hours also and i can't start my user | 13:46 |
| kvothetech | Roy1: Capprentice kvm is pretty much built in and does everything vmware/vbox does | 13:46 |
| kvothetech | expertarun: yeah...dmes / syslog? was it running fsck | 13:47 |
| expertarun | kvothetech: my ubuntu doesn't start login screen till many hours also and i can't login (no login screen ) the thing is that i tried to setup the theme | 13:47 |
| Roy1 | kvothetech can it run Mac OS X 10.8.3 like i do, if not then i cant use kvm | 13:47 |
| Roy1 | the latest mac os x | 13:48 |
| Roy1 | and i had to apply a patch to make it avaible to work, and under the table patch if u get me | 13:48 |
| Capprentice | kvothetech, the bad thing is kvm does not come installed :( You have to install it and couple of other programs to ease the use of KVM. I hate CLI :'( | 13:49 |
| Roy1 | but it purs like a kitten | 13:49 |
| Roy1 | :-! | 13:49 |
| kvothetech | Capprentice: virt-manager (gui) and qemu...was just saying it's more or less built in to use vm's | 13:50 |
| Capprentice | expertarun, have you posted any question at askubuntu.com ?? If already have not, do it now. This might be answered there :) | 13:50 |
| kvothetech | Capprentice: i don't think he's tried anything based on his essentially informationless question other than a symptom | 13:51 |

| Capprentice | Roy1,Run it in terminal, it will make Cryptkeepr visible on the panel | 14:00 |
| Capprentice | :) | 14:00 |
| Elvano | SR71X, I had a simular problem withmy netbook. The problem was that the backlighting of my screen wasn't working. | 14:00 |
| Roy1 | Capprentice "No such schema 'com.canonical.Unity.Panel'" | 14:00 |
| Roy1 | !not | 14:00 |
| Elvano | Upgrading to 13.04 solved my problem, SR71X | 14:01 |
| Capprentice | Oh, hmmm its because you are using 13.04 !! :( | 14:01 |
| Capprentice | I think. | 14:01 |
| kennyngston | how do i know if i'm using free or non-free drivers for my gpu? | 14:01 |

| kennyngston | okay, 2nd question, should i install steam from software center, or directly from steampowered.com | 14:04 |
| Roy1 | Capprentice: so why did they take it out to begin with | 14:05 |
| Roy1 | reading... | 14:05 |
| cfhowlett | kennyngston, software center | 14:05 |
| betrayd | i'd go sw center, some people get lost when they use steampowered.com (instructions, i mean) | 14:05 |
| Capprentice | Roy1, Its the developers decision. | 14:05 |
| kennyngston | well ive managed the get the .deb | 14:05 |
| kennyngston | sudo dpkg -i steam_latest.deb | 14:06 |
| kennyngston | right? | 14:06 |
| Capprentice | Yep. | 14:06 |
| kennyngston | wonderfull | 14:06 |
| kennyngston | thanks | 14:06 |
| joevandyk | when runit starts a service, this is in the PATH: /usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin Where does that come from? It's not in /etc/environment, /etc/profile, /etc/profile.d/*, etc | 14:06 |
| Capprentice | Desurium is a Steam Alternative. | 14:07 |
| kennyngston | apt-get install -f, what does the -f do? | 14:07 |
| BluesKaj | kennyngston, most deb files will launch the installer by just clicking on it | 14:07 |
| kennyngston | does it install dependencies as well? | 14:08 |
| x-fak | OerHeks , it was a vmware video monitor config issue with ubuntu installer, i manually setup the guest screen to 1024x768 and now i see the install setup window and can click the icon at the top | 14:08 |
| OerHeks | x-fak, nice | 14:08 |
| Capprentice | kennyngston, force install. | 14:08 |
| Capprentice | or fix dependencies | 14:08 |
| dima__ | anyone to help me? | 14:08 |
| BluesKaj | kennyngston, of course otherwise what good is the installer | 14:08 |
| dustinspringman | so, I have a question and I'm not sure how to ask google for an answer to it... | 14:08 |
| kennyngston | mkay, here goes nothing :) | 14:08 |
| cfhowlett | !details|dustinspringman, | 14:09 |
| ubottu | dustinspringman,: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 14:09 |
| kennyngston | ill just try to install it from sw center... :) | 14:10 |
| dustinspringman | i have two apps that open 3 windows on every boot as desired.... undesired is that they always open up in random places and I spend a couple clicks every boot moving them around to be visible the way I use them... how can I make them sticky? so that they always come back in the same exact position? | 14:10 |
| betrayd | smart move kennyngston | 14:10 |
| x-fak | OerHeks , also do you suggest ubuntu12 or 13? and are there any real difference between ubuntu and kubuntu? | 14:10 |
| Capprentice | kennyngston, you can install "Gdebi Package Installer" which is a Gui to install Packages from right click context menu. | 14:10 |
| kennyngston | okay i don't understand something, if its free, why is the button says 'buy' ? | 14:10 |
| kennyngston | in sw center | 14:10 |
| Capprentice | kennyngston, because the app is published as propreitary | 14:11 |
| robmuh | asked this on #vim, but since Ubuntu uses /bin/dash so much, any chance of including dash.vim or something like? | 14:11 |
| kennyngston | i guess ill have to register thna :/ | 14:11 |
| Capprentice | Yes, kennyngston . The resgister is free. | 14:11 |
| Roy1 | Capprentice i just did what the link said, when i did the upgrade it did not install anything, i restarted unity and i still get No such schema 'com.canonical.Unity.Panel' | 14:12 |
| Roy1 | no cryptkeeper | 14:12 |
| ZynACK | Every time I try to run VMWare Player, after accepting the prompt to install new modules for it, ubuntu experiences an error. Trying to report the error also causes an error. | 14:12 |
| wolfje | Can somebody help me with editing unity? | 14:13 |
| ZynACK | Oh, VMWare Player was working fine for a while after I reinstalled it before it wanted me to install the new modules. | 14:13 |
| Capprentice | Roy1,gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist "['all']" | 14:13 |
| x-fak | 512mb or RAM is enough for ubuntu 12 (minimal requirement say that), but what about recommanded ram? | 14:14 |
| Capprentice | x-fak, umm no, I think. | 14:14 |
| Roy1 | ZynACK im message | 14:14 |
| Capprentice | 4 GB will be better :) | 14:14 |
| ZynACK | Got it. | 14:14 |
| x-fak | Capprentice , 4GB? lol i have only 2GB for windows XP and it's more than enough | 14:15 |
| kennyngston | well this is strange, im trying to install from SW center, and it says thats 'software cannot be installed because there is a problem with teh software curretnly installed' | 14:15 |
| kennyngston | this is a fresh install of xubuntu | 14:15 |
| kennyngston | am i missing anything? | 14:15 |
| bogor | I have a ubuntu 12.04 machine and a windows 7 machine. I have enabled xdmcp in ubuntu and rebooted the ubuntu. I have installed Xcygwin in windows. Now when i use xlaunch and try a xdmcp session , it returns blank screen. | 14:15 |
| Capprentice | x-fak, depends what you wish to run. For me I run StuntRally, NetBeans, JIDEA, Xonotic etc. | 14:16 |
| Capprentice | They needs RAM :) | 14:16 |
| Capprentice | And couple of servers and VMS running too :P | 14:16 |

| lousygarua | Is the Flash player on Chromium different than the one on Firefox on 12.04? | 14:18 |
| x-fak | i talk about version stable 12 | 14:18 |
| Capprentice | x-fak, depends what you have installed :P | 14:18 |
| x-fak | Capprentice , the ubuntu iso 700mb | 14:18 |
| bogor | lousygarua: yes if you mean google chome. Google chrome has their own flash. | 14:18 |
| Capprentice | Oh, it approximately take 5.7 GB .. | 14:19 |
| x-fak | i'm not sure if i should install ubuntu 12.10 or kubuntu 13.04 i've downloaded both | 14:19 |
| lousygarua | bogor, actually it's Chromium, I am playing a FB game that crashes on Firefox but seems ok on chromium-browser | 14:19 |
| Capprentice | Kubuntu 13.04. | 14:19 |
| x-fak | Capprentice , ok then i should allocate at least 10Gb i think | 14:19 |
| Capprentice | Are you installing in a VM ? | 14:20 |
| bogor | lousygarua: chromium uses flash in system | 14:20 |
| bogor | lousygarua: so same as the one firefox uses | 14:20 |
| Capprentice | x-fak ?? | 14:20 |
| x-fak | Capprentice , i mean which partition size should i allocate for the system, 10GB is good i think | 14:21 |
| === wolfje is now known as _WolfeZ_ | ||
| Capprentice | I have created only two partitions one is / which is 55 GB and one is Swap which is 7.5 GB. | 14:21 |
| Capprentice | I have everything under /. If you does not upgrade frequently then one partitons is okk. | 14:22 |
| lousygarua | bogor, so it might be something with the new FF 21 version that was packaged a few days ago | 14:22 |
| bogor | How do i troubleshoot xdmcp login issue ? | 14:23 |
| lousygarua | bogor, maybe look at the Xorg logs? | 14:23 |
| lousygarua | there might be some remote login related stuff there | 14:24 |
| bogor | lousygarua: I checked it. It has no mention of xdmcp | 14:25 |

| waltervos | I'll type out my question, perhaps someone can jump: I was updating to 12.10 and in the mean time I was doing some work with Chromium, Netbeans, Banshee en Gnome Terminal open. All of a sudden the unity sidebar and top bar disappeared, ctrl+alt+left/right don't work anymore and alt+tab doesn't work anymore. So, I can't really switch windows anymore and I have no idea of the upgrade status. | 14:31 |
| kamlesh | are there drivers for rme fireface 400 available ? | 14:31 |
| bogor | bekks: I enabled xdmcp on my x server in ubuntu and i did a sudo netstat -ap | grep -i x and it doesnt show it is listening on a any port. Then does it mean it is not acepting remtoe connections ? | 14:32 |

| waltervos | I meant, "it might be stuck there" | 14:53 |
| BluesKaj | why do you have to shut irc down to open a terminal | 14:53 |
| waltervos | Because alt tab doesn't work, my sidebar and top bar are gone | 14:53 |
| waltervos | I was doing a dist upgrade when they disappeared and alt+tab stopped working. So, now I don't know wether or not the upgrade has finished and wether or not I can drop to shell to reboot | 14:54 |
| otak | waltervos: how about file>open new window | 14:54 |
| BluesKaj | use alt +f2 to launch the run command type terminal to launch it , waltervos | 14:55 |
| waltervos | alt+f2 is gone too | 14:55 |
| otak | ctrl-alt-t | 14:55 |
| waltervos | and file>new window would just open a new IRC window, I'm not running IRC from the terminal if that's what you were thinking, otak | 14:55 |

| cmder | If squeeze version outdated, debootstrap can be found from wheezy repositories. Right? Why do you prefer different mirror? | 15:04 |
| waltervos | But anyway, it seems like this is a pretty rare problem to which there's no known solution. I'm going to try some things like checking logs and otherwise I'll just have to reboot and hope for the best | 15:04 |

| echoe | for reference, I have fedora, and it randomly freezes two or three times a day and sometimes fails to wake up from sleep | 15:51 |
| * echoe would like those things to not happen because when running programs in client machines if I don't screen them this can cause ... problems. | 15:51 | |
| Meadow | echoe: sounds exactly like my problem! Its a hardware problem for me, the graphics card is fried out from the previous owner who played a lot of games | 15:52 |
| echoe | that might be it for me too, it isn't my own hardware though so idk | 15:52 |
| Meadow | echoe: the computer will not freeze when it is not using the graphics driver. Right now I am in a regular console with no graphic driver because comptuer is freezing up when I load it, everything is purple and white alternating randomly >_< | 15:53 |
| betrayd | soit CAN happen | 15:53 |

| echoe | i'd hope there would be a way to turn off the external graphics and default to the onboard in that case? | 15:55 |
| Meadow | echoe: sadly for me its a laptop... a desktop you can change that in the bios settings... but I have no option with a laptop, and a new graphics for it costs $120 minimum :( | 15:55 |
| echoe | laptops have bios settings too. unless it's the onboard [non-expansion] graphics that are broken ... | 15:56 |
| Meadow | echoe: oh yes it has bios settings, but no "onboard" seperate graphics card like desktops do... | 15:57 |
| echoe | depends on the laptop. i guess not then | 15:57 |
| echoe | i.e. mine has optimus. so | 15:57 |
| Meadow | but that sounds like an item of interest to investigate in google, thanks for the pointer!! :) | 15:57 |
| echoe | heh. possibly ... | 15:58 |
| Meadow | But I think unscheduled freezing can be caused by any number of hardware failures... next time its running maybe the "lastlog" dmesg has some info for you? | 15:58 |

| urgodfather | Meaodw: can you help troubleshoot wifi connectivity? | 16:18 |
| urgodfather | nbubuntu: what is your question? | 16:18 |
| Meaodw | urgodfather: I suppose, what seems you be your trouble, dearest? | 16:19 |
| FunkyELF_ | ... and here I am on the Ubuntu machine | 16:19 |
| FunkyELF_ | Trying to find out how to monitor CPU temp.... I search for guides but they seem old | 16:19 |
| Meaodw | FunkyELF_: look up lm_sensors installation guide | 16:19 |
| th0r | FunkyELF, I believe you have to install lm_sensors. Do a google on that...I just got temp working on my netbook | 16:19 |
| Meaodw | FunkyELF_: there are some great GTK front ends that you can watch in the GUI | 16:19 |
| === OS-10635 is now known as Guest898 | ||
| urgodfather | Meaodw: clean install 13.04, kernel 3.9.0rc8, intel 625 wireless (new card) cannot connect to any network. bios up to date, etc | 16:20 |
| FunkyELF_ | Meaodw, and then what program monitors them? I don't think LM Sensors is a GUI or anything | 16:20 |
| Meaodw | FunkyELF_: you have to search the package manager for lm_sensors and the guis should come up, I do not use ubuntu sorry :) | 16:20 |
| nbubuntu | urgodfather : how to copy a row of number file and covert it to a column on spreadsheet ? | 16:20 |
| Meaodw | urgodfather: we have to troubleshoot from the start here, lets look at ifconfig to see if your wireless card comes up | 16:21 |
| th0r | FunkyELF, I use gkrellm, but conky and others can use it as well. there is even a panel plugin for xfce | 16:21 |
| FunkyELF_ | th0r, I installed an applet that came up when I searched the Ubuntu software center for lm_sensors | 16:21 |
| Meaodw | urgodfather: it should be either eth1 or wlan0, if it does not show up then the driver is not being loaded for some reason | 16:21 |
| betrayd | nbubuntu: hightlight the row number then copy, paste to a col header | 16:22 |
| FunkyELF_ | how do get an applet to show up?... or how do I get anything to show up in the panel?... I can't right click on the panel | 16:22 |
| th0r | FunkyELF, you need to do something to detect the sensors...it is a one off command but I don't recall it right now | 16:22 |
| urgodfather | Meaodw: it does | 16:22 |
| Meaodw | FunkyELF_: you have to add it to the gui autostart, if it is xfce there is the startup option in the settings menu | 16:22 |
| FunkyELF_ | Meaodw, I'm on Ubuntu 13 so I have Unity | 16:23 |
| Meaodw | urgodfather: great! Now do you have a wireless manager installed? or are you using wpa_supplicant to manage networks? | 16:23 |
| urgodfather | nbubuntu: http://www.ehow.com/info_8167559_rows-columns-openoffice.html | 16:23 |

| ndevuk_ | I have alot of java files in my directory exnding with the extension class | 16:23 |
| Meaodw | urgodfather: then what I would like to see is the last 50 or so lines of you /var/log/messages after 30 seconds of trying to log into your wireless network, this will show me what the problem is | 16:23 |
| nbubuntu | urgodfather : it's not working if you are coping from a gedit | 16:24 |
| ndevuk_ | is rm *.class safe to only delete class files and not failes ending with the extension .java | 16:24 |
| urgodfather | Meaodw: whichever is installed on clean installation. im assuming wireless manager. | 16:24 |
| urgodfather | Meaodw: let me login from the laptop | 16:25 |

| Meaodw | urgodfather: okay, I perfer WICD and when I have used ubuntu, replaced the default because I don't like it... however we can still find out if it is the managers fault, or some setting somewhere... | 16:25 |
| ohnonotagain | ndevuk That will remove files only ending in .class, yes | 16:25 |
| ndevuk_ | thanks, I didn't want to have to backup | 16:25 |

| PrototypeX29A | also i have an unreasonable long lag when typing something | 16:26 |
| ohnonotagain | weldan_: What type of input device is that? | 16:26 |
| guest1234 | Meaodw: this is urgodfather | 16:26 |
| Meaodw | guest1234: okay | 16:27 |
| weldan_ | i am thinking of that too | 16:27 |
| weldan_ | it is usb camera | 16:27 |
| guest1234 | Meaodw: let me pastbin that log | 16:27 |
| PrototypeX29A | may be the replacement console is just crap | 16:27 |
| Meaodw | guest1234: when you connect to the wifi it will go through the handshaking process, which can take up to 30 seconds, then the log will give the information :) | 16:27 |
| PrototypeX29A | excuse me | 16:27 |
| weldan_ | that was the result of dmesg , showing uvcvideo rejecting i/o from usb and not really sure what was that line for | 16:28 |
| guest1234 | Meaodw: it never handshakes | 16:28 |
| Meaodw | guest1234: could then be a router problem or even a hardware problem on your computer, log will say for sure | 16:29 |
| urgodfather | nbubuntu: i dont know if that will work | 16:29 |
| weldan_ | ohnonotagain: got any idea how do i get around this? | 16:29 |
| ohnonotagain | I'm not trying to be a jerk, but I don't think you are acutally trying to mount it, are you? | 16:29 |
| weldan_ | yes i am | 16:29 |
| weldan_ | he he | 16:29 |
| guest1234 | Meaodw: router ok, card brand new, functions fine in windows | 16:29 |
| ohnonotagain | So, it has internal storage? wel | 16:29 |
| weldan_ | i thought. because the manual says so | 16:30 |
| betrayd | weldan_: by any chance you tried nautilus to explore it | 16:30 |
| weldan_ | lol what | 16:30 |
| ohnonotagain | Gotcha. Just trying to get an idea of what's going on | 16:30 |
| weldan_ | it did not mounted. where can i find it in nautilus betrayd | 16:30 |
| ohnonotagain | nautilus, your file manager, has a lot of plug-and-play functionality. It'd be on the left hand side in nautilus weldan_ | 16:30 |
| Meaodw | guest1234: so I hear that you have windows on the computer and it functions, great, this tells me that its a problem with your configuration, the log will say for sure. | 16:30 |

| guest1234 | Meaodw: there isnt a messages in the log folder | 16:31 |

| === Guest898 is now known as ghyth | ||
| Meaodw | guest1234: if there is nothing in that log, then perhaps the dmesg will have some info | 16:32 |
| th0r | Meaodw, in ubuntu it is /var/log/syslog | 16:33 |
| Meaodw | guest1234: you have to find where the computer is logging the wireless connection... it will show the authetication process. | 16:33 |
| guest1234 | Meaodw: there's 4 dmesg files | 16:33 |
| Meaodw | guest1234: read th0r comment | 16:33 |
| betrayd | weldan_: sometimes when I can view in nautilus, it mounts successfully for other programs to access the files | 16:33 |
| weldan_ | anyone interested to see the result in dmesg ? | 16:33 |
| weldan_ | me too. but when i know how it worked in out i thow away that feeling | 16:33 |
| weldan_ | hew hew | 16:34 |
| weldan_ | i guess the keyword is ucvvideo if anyone interested | 16:34 |
| betrayd | see how it defined the device in nautilus | 16:34 |
| betrayd | then use those terms | 16:34 |
| weldan_ | okay okay i give a try on nautilus. brb | 16:35 |
| betrayd | for future referemce | 16:35 |
| weldan_ | unfortunately cannot | 16:35 |
| betrayd | cannautilus view contents | 16:36 |
| weldan_ | because /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb2/2-1/2-1.1/2-1.1:1.0/input/input15 is definitely not a file or whatever. | 16:36 |
| betrayd | not yet | 16:36 |
| weldan_ | there is a /dev in / . not /devices | 16:36 |
| weldan_ | okay. will try to reattach the usb . brb | 16:36 |
| Meaodw | guest1234: you get that log from /var/log/syslog? When you do type `Meadow:` before you post it so that it highlights me, I will be around in a minute have to take care of something for a second | 16:37 |

| raven_ | lol | 16:37 |

| raven_ | im confused | 16:40 |
| betrayd | weldan_: i was wondering if ou could view its contents, from nautilus alone without any of your interference | 16:40 |
| tanya_tanya | hello, quick question. I have an overclock 2600k. Should I run on normal clock during install of ubuntu? Or can I install in overclock settings? How about in booting to Ubuntu, do I run overclock or normal? THank you very much | 16:41 |
| weldan_ | of course not | 16:41 |
| betrayd | if nautilus can't then you can't | 16:42 |
| betrayd | it does a lot of the heavy lifting | 16:42 |
| betrayd | so you wont have to | 16:42 |
| raven_ | hey i insstalled open java jde 7 | 16:43 |
| betrayd | If that's as far as nautilus can do, it'll be a struggle to do it some other way | 16:43 |
| raven_ | and i want to java programs open automaticly with java | 16:43 |
| Meaodw | guest1234: yeah thats really weird, that log give no information as to why it is not working... I don't even have a guess at this point, my former assumptions as to the problem are now possibly wrong based on this log... | 16:43 |
| raven_ | but when i click open with other it doesnt list the open java | 16:43 |
| weldan_ | betrayd: here is dmesg log. http://paste.ubuntu.com/5677743/ | 16:44 |
| Meaodw | guest1234: you might try #networking or #wireless with that log to find the problem, or maybe someone else here can help you, but really I am not well enough versed in ubuntu to help in this. I would actually try installing WICD and using that, it MIGHT fix your problem, which appears to be software | 16:44 |
| weldan_ | since it is a camera. tried to load uvcvideo module | 16:45 |
| betrayd | weldan_: on this session it is hosed | 16:45 |
| betrayd | have you any other usb ports | 16:45 |
| weldan_ | okay what you mean by hosed | 16:45 |
| betrayd | it failed to recognize this attempt | 16:46 |
| bitbyte | is any one able to help me out I'm running ubuntu server and asked in there but its pretty quiet, I'm trying to add noip2 to cron to force updates to the service because it won't automatically do it any one else got a similar setup | 16:46 |
| shivam | hi there | 16:47 |
| BluesKaj | raven_, is your machine 64 bit ? | 16:47 |
| weldan_ | yes that was what i thought too | 16:47 |
| betrayd | weldan_: loading of uvc/we is pointless, you need one where sd+ was recognized | 16:47 |
| raven_ | yes | 16:47 |
| Meaodw | guest1234: I have to run now, I hope you get it fixed, wireless is always stressful part of install! :( I have been there many times | 16:47 |
| bitbyte | yes its 64bit | 16:47 |
| bitbyte | oh sorry was aimed at some one else hehe | 16:47 |
| weldan_ | no success yet | 16:47 |
| weldan_ | i can view the video if i attach the usb on windows | 16:48 |
| betrayd | yeah, unless you got more USB ports on a different side of the box (e.g. lcd monitor, back of box) | 16:48 |
| BluesKaj | raven_, did you choose this image : 64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop image | 16:48 |
| raven_ | yes | 16:48 |
| weldan_ | for the storage i still did not get anything from both windows and linux | 16:49 |
| weldan_ | nvm. will try someday | 16:49 |
| betrayd | or, weldan_ you can boot with the cam attached already to ensure a good connection | 16:49 |
| BluesKaj | raven_, then you're ok , it also runs on intel cpus | 16:49 |

| AbbasX8 | guys, how do i increase the size of dev/sda1 without breaking the ubuntu installation on it? http://i.imgur.com/7LGRuoX.jpg | 17:28 |
| AbbasX8 | right now, it wont let me increase size because the swap disc is right next to it, i can only incrase the size of swap disc | 17:28 |
| zembela | can anybody read my message? | 17:29 |
| bascherz | @zembela... yes | 17:29 |
| surfdaemon | zembela: transmission received | 17:29 |
| th0r | AbbasX8, boot into a live cd, mount the hard drive, delete the swap, extend sda1, redefine swap. But I won't guarantee any of this will work | 17:30 |

| zembela | i am using windows 7 64 bit manhine. i installed on virtual box (latest stable version) ubuntu 12.04.02 32 bit. but after proper installation now ubuntu does not starts and gives me this error: The system is running in low-graphics modeYour screen, graphics cards, and input device settings could not be detected correctly. You will need to configure these yourself. What should ı do now? ı dont want to play with system defaults, because i will get a back | 17:32 |
| wilee-nilee | AbbasX8, You have to realize the sda2 the extended is the container for the sda5 it is a partition itself. So you have to extend the sda2 to the right and move the sda5 to the right, then shrink the sda2 from the left and then expand the sda1. Dn't do all this in one job. | 17:36 |
| wilee-nilee | don't | 17:37 |
| wilee-nilee | AbbasX8, As of now the sda2 and sda5 are just the swap you could remove and bulild them agin and just resize the sda1. | 17:39 |

| jrib | cuddylier: they need execute permission on parent directories | 17:58 |
| ActionParsnip | cuddlyier: if they open then directly then I believe so | 17:59 |
| jrib | cuddylier: for example, your user can access /home/username despite /home being owned by root | 17:59 |
| cuddylier | jrib So even if root owned the main directory, if they had execute permissions for their subdirectories it would work fine? | 17:59 |
| cuddylier | Ah good :) | 17:59 |
| cuddylier | ty | 17:59 |
| ActionParsnip | mamece2: thats fine, you can add boot options to the live CD | 17:59 |
| jrib | cuddylier: they need execute permissions on parent directories not just the subdirectory | 17:59 |
| cuddylier | Oh.. | 17:59 |
| cuddylier | crap | 17:59 |
| luc4_linux | Hi! I'm trying to replace my home directory with another one where I mount via fstab a partition. I tried to mv my old home into old_home and mkdir a new home dir. What happens is that when I reboot, the system is not booting, remains at the splash. Any idea why? | 17:59 |
| cuddylier | I only want users to access their directories though | 18:00 |
| bascherz1 | ActionParsnip: recovery mode is not available in the boot menu, so I guess I am screwed. | 18:00 |
| ActionParsnip | bascherz1: it is, hunt around | 18:00 |
| mamece2 | ActionParsnip: how can i add boot options? after quiet splash theres "--" i shoudl add "--nomce" or "nomce" ? | 18:00 |
| bascherz1 | ActionParsnip: there are only two entries, both are kernel versions I did not purge. | 18:00 |
| jrib | cuddylier: so what's the issue? Make sure they have execute on the parent directory (usually you just give "others" (as opposed to owner or group) execute) | 18:01 |
| betrayd | _name: you can set mixer settings for device #1, is the USB cam detachable | 18:01 |
| _name | betrayd: yea | 18:01 |
| ActionParsnip | mamece2: keep the minuses in, add a space after them then add the option | 18:01 |
| urgodfather_ | ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/AkfhL48W this is after i sudo rmmod iwldvm and sudo modprobe iwlwifi 11n_disable=1 and then sudo modprobe iwldvm then try to connect | 18:01 |

| ActionParsnip | _name: what is the url made by the alsa-info.sh script | 18:02 |
| _name | betrayd: what do you mean? | 18:02 |
| cuddylier | jrib I have a program which I have set as root to run. When root tries to create users via the program, it gives the error [Errno 13] Permission denied | 18:03 |
| betrayd | work with ActionParsnip for now _name g2g somewhere | 18:03 |
| jrib | cuddylier: what program? | 18:03 |
| cuddylier | jrib Multicraft | 18:03 |
| mamece2 | ActionParsnip: THank you! I love you but in a manly way :D | 18:03 |
| jrib | cuddylier: this doesn't seem related to your original question though. Is the program running as root? | 18:03 |
| ActionParsnip | mamece2: no probs, you learned about bot options too | 18:03 |
| cuddylier | Yes, it is | 18:03 |
| cuddylier | I have the program's user set as root | 18:03 |
| cuddylier | It is meant to create users and set servers to run in them | 18:04 |
| _name | ActionParsnip: locate didnt find that script | 18:04 |
| jrib | cuddylier: what does that mean exactly? How did you set the program's user to root? | 18:04 |
| cuddylier | jrib In its config and I run the panel for it in root | 18:04 |
| jrib | cuddylier: what does "in root" mean? | 18:04 |
| cuddylier | as root user | 18:04 |
| ActionParsnip | _name: its not instaled or available by default. I gave you a command earlier to wget it.... | 18:04 |
| jrib | cuddylier: /how/ | 18:04 |
| jrib | cuddylier: tell me the steps you take to start the program | 18:05 |
| _name | ActionParsnip: didnt notice, you mustve misspelled my name | 18:05 |
| urgodfather_ | ActionParsnip: looks like it's just not associating properly | 18:05 |
| ActionParsnip | _name: scroll up and you'll see it | 18:05 |
| cuddylier | jrib To start the program on each server box I want to run it on, I type /home/root/multicraft/bin/multicraft -nv start | 18:05 |
| jrib | cuddylier: and you're logged in as root at that point? | 18:06 |
| cuddylier | jrib On ssh, yep | 18:06 |
| cuddylier | On 'top' it says it's running as root | 18:06 |
| jrib | cuddylier: what option are you selecting in multicraft? I'm not familiar with it but I'm reading through it now to see what it actually tries to do that it gets denied permission for | 18:06 |
| ghyth | is there a direct download from privatetunnel for ubuntu (it's OpenVPN product) | 18:06 |
| cuddylier | jrib In its multicraft.conf you set the user at the top, 'user= root' | 18:07 |
| ActionParsnip | urgodfather_: could install wicd then remove network manager,see if it helps | 18:08 |
| ElUser | Hi all! | 18:08 |
| bascherz | ActionParsnip: Any other options for me since recovery mode appears not to be one? | 18:08 |
| urgodfather_ | ActionParsnip: will you send me a good tut? | 18:08 |
| jrib | cuddylier: you're performing some action after running the command to start it before the permission error shows up right? Or does the error show up as soon as you try to start it? | 18:09 |
| ActionParsnip | bascherz: could use a chroot from liveCD | 18:09 |

| cuddylier | jrib After I start the daemon (program on each server box), I then have to create a server on it, it then runs the commands to create a user, creates a directory and then gives it perms to that directory | 18:10 |
| ElUser | Thank! | 18:10 |
| urgodfather_ | ActionParsnip: ill figure it out | 18:10 |

| cuddylier | jrib It gives that permission denied error I said earlier when I then try to execute a server, but I then looked at my user's list and no users were made | 18:10 |

| ActionParsnip | _name: try: killall pulseaudio; rm -r ~/.pulse* | 18:20 |
| jrib | James_Epp: why did you run that? Did you do something to stop it from starting at startup? | 18:21 |
| James_Epp | jrib: It didn't run on its own in the first place. tftpd-hpa (in my experience) has never done this. | 18:22 |
| James_Epp | jrib: Even if I append /etc/default/tftpd-hpa to include RUN_DAEMON="yes" it does not run on startup. | 18:22 |
| jrib | James_Epp: well it has a /etc/init/tftpd-hpa.conf which means it is managed by upstart, reading that file may shed some light on what's happening | 18:23 |
| James_Epp | jrib: Thanks for the place to start. RTFM awaaaay | 18:23 |

| gustav_ | alien64: I think it is. | 18:38 |
| mgmt | I'm not sure what I did but now my install of 13.04 hangs at the splash screen until I hit esc a few times. Anyone had this issue? | 18:39 |

| Tayler | Hey guys! | 18:39 |
| alien64 | gustav_: is see 12.04 lts and 13.04 but no 12.10 | 18:40 |
| Tayler | MY computer is fucked up lol | 18:40 |
| IdleOne | Tayler: no swearing please | 18:40 |
| Tayler | anybody need or want help? | 18:40 |
| gustav_ | alien64: There's a list of how long each version is supported, somewhere. | 18:40 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: I'm reading. | 18:40 |
| ActionParsnip | alien64: 12.10 is supported 18 months which is after 13.04 is EOL | 18:40 |
| Tayler | Oh, sorry, I didn't know. | 18:40 |
| Wolfje | gustav_: Thanks | 18:40 |
| mgmt | Tayler I could use some help lol | 18:40 |
| Tayler | What with? | 18:40 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: Can you paste on paste.ubuntu.com or pastebin.com? | 18:40 |
| Tayler | I am an 11 yr old code geek lol | 18:40 |
| mgmt | my computer hangs at the splash screen until I hit esc a few times | 18:41 |
| Tayler | are all drivers installed correctly? | 18:41 |
| Tayler | Go into software manager, and check for updates | 18:41 |
| mgmt | I would assume so, everything works | 18:41 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Do you know if there is going to be serious, solid support for Optimus in any upcoming release? It's kind of important, at least to me... or I can never upgrade. | 18:41 |
| alien64 | ic | 18:42 |
| mgmt | If I set grub to nosplash debug everything works fine | 18:42 |
| alien64 | ty | 18:42 |
| Tayler | hmm | 18:42 |
| mgmt | software is up to date | 18:42 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: no idea. i think optimus is a cludge | 18:42 |
| Tayler | Debug grub | 18:42 |
| Tayler | see if it is having any issues | 18:42 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: i am actively avoiding it | 18:42 |
| mgmt | how do you debug grub? | 18:42 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: No, Optimus is the actual hardware, you mean Bumblebee. | 18:42 |
| Tayler | lemme look, I am not the best at it lol | 18:42 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: both | 18:42 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Hm, how to use GPU then? | 18:43 |
| Wolfje | gustav_: Yess i can | 18:43 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: Thanks. | 18:43 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: if i avoid optimus then i dont have to mess with bumblebee | 18:43 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: True but no serious 3D acceleration either. | 18:43 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: buy a non-sandy/ivybridge CPU then but an nvidia based video card | 18:44 |
| Tayler | mgmt: You know your splash screen.. What does it display on it? | 18:44 |
| Wolfje | gustav_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5678098/ | 18:44 |
| ActionParsnip | gustac_: not hard...... | 18:44 |
| mgmt | Tayler what do you mean? | 18:44 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Hm, that fit in the same socket? | 18:44 |
| mgmt | it says ubuntu with the 5 or so dots that light up | 18:44 |
| Tayler | mgmt You said your splash screen hangs | 18:44 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: You need to install some missing packages. | 18:44 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: absolutely, why would it not? | 18:44 |
| Tayler | ahh, you meen the Ubuntu splash, not motherboard splash screen | 18:44 |
| Tayler | are you using 64bit? | 18:45 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Well... don't you want the fastest CPU? Haswell, won't it have the same, I mean a GPU in the CPU package? | 18:45 |
| mgmt | Tayler: Yeah it just keeps lighting up the dots like its loading but it doesn't go anywhere until I hit esc twice | 18:45 |
| mgmt | no, I'm using 32bit | 18:45 |
| Tayler | mgmt what graphics card do you use? | 18:45 |
| mgmt | I think this one is a intel hd3000 | 18:45 |
| mgmt | it uses the system ram as video memory | 18:46 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: some of the "fastest cpus" dont have gpus built in | 18:46 |
| Tayler | hmm | 18:46 |
| Tayler | You might wanna change that | 18:46 |
| Tayler | using system RAM for video memory is a bad idea | 18:46 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Which do you rate as the fastest? Most expensive, most high end. | 18:46 |
| erle- | how can i capture master audio with avconv? | 18:46 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: benchmarks | 18:46 |
| tango | STV|TV-ASTRA|01 xdcc send #24 | 18:47 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Not sure which are faster then Ivy Bridge, then. | 18:47 |
| Tayler | mgmt, open up terminal and paste "sudo apt-get --reinstall install gdm && sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm" without the quotes | 18:47 |
| gustav_ | than | 18:47 |
| mgmt | Tayler: I have this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834230824 | 18:47 |
| Wolfje | gustav_: Where and how? | 18:48 |
| Tayler | mgmt: go into terminal and paste "sudo apt-get --reinstall install gdm && sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm" | 18:48 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: With apt-get. Do apt-cache search unity-protocol, apt-cache search libbamf3, apt-cache search compiz. Look for -dev. Install those. | 18:48 |
| mgmt | Tayler, ok, one min | 18:48 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: Then try again. | 18:49 |
| Tayler | mgmt: okay, tell me if it changes anything | 18:49 |
| mgmt | Tayler: do I set the default DM to gdm or lightdm? | 18:49 |
| mgmt | I'm currently using unity | 18:49 |
| Tayler | gdm | 18:49 |
| Tayler | Tell me if it works | 18:49 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: lots are faster than ivy bridge, are you serious? | 18:50 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Which? | 18:50 |
| mgmt | alright, I gotta restart, back in two shakes | 18:50 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: I mean x86 or something you can buy in a laptop format. | 18:50 |
| i4c | after i installed some packages i have no sound, html5 and totem go superfast, like 2 times or 3 times faster | 18:51 |
| i4c | before it was normal | 18:51 |
| i4c | weird | 18:51 |
| i4c | and also only 1 sound output is detected, before 2 were | 18:51 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: amd hsve decent decent gpus embedded in their mobile cpus | 18:51 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Ok, I don't mean the GPU. I don't want the internal GPU. | 18:52 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Which AMD is faster than the fastest Ivy Bridge? | 18:52 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: look at benchmarks | 18:52 |
| eipi-1 | since a couple of days my laptop has the weirdest problems: starting with loosing internet connection via WLAN. In the log i found this: http://pastebin.com/NShz1r51 Afterwards it often can't reboot but shuts down instead. Same with suspend. Any ideas? | 18:52 |
| Sc0rp10n | hi guys | 18:52 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Strange name for a CPU. :) | 18:52 |
| Tayler | I wouldn't say many, gustav_.. I suggest Ivy Bridge, but look at bench marks etc | 18:52 |
| Sc0rp10n | I have a question regarding ubuntu | 18:53 |
| gustav_ | I already own an Ivy Bridge, so I'm not buying. | 18:53 |
| Tayler | ahh | 18:53 |
| Tayler | Yes, Sc0rp10n? | 18:53 |
| gustav_ | 3920XM. It was the fastest when I bought. If I didn't miss any AMD. | 18:53 |
| Wolfje | gustav_: What do i need to do with -dev? | 18:53 |
| gustav_ | Flash still lags, though. | 18:54 |
| Sc0rp10n | is it possible to replicate dev and staging enviroment running on aws on your local environment?? | 18:54 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: Install. apt-get install PKGNAME-dev | 18:54 |
| Tayler | Hmm.. I am not quite sure, sorry. | 18:54 |
| mgmt | Tayler: broke it worse. that made it so I couldn't esc out of the hanging splash screen | 18:54 |
| Sc0rp10n | I joined a new company and they are doing a migration of their code from a 3rd party to their own servers | 18:54 |
| Sc0rp10n | I have access to ubuntu instances on ec2 for their dev and staging | 18:55 |
| Sc0rp10n | how can I setup my own environment from that | 18:55 |
| Wolfje | gustav_: E: Unable to locate package PKGNAME-dev | 18:55 |
| seckt0r | o_O | 18:55 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: Yeah, the -dev packages you found. | 18:55 |
| Tayler | mgmt, okay, try this: Edit /etc/default/grub change the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="" then run sudo update-grub2 | 18:55 |
| Tayler | mgmt, then, tell me what line the boot hangs on | 18:55 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: You can use synaptic or aptitude if it's more convenient to you. | 18:56 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_ i7 3970X has a higher clock speed.....than the fastest i7 | 18:56 |
| mgmt | Tayler: should I set it back to gdm? I just set it back to the original lightdm | 18:56 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Is that not an M? | 18:56 |
| Tayler | mgmt, are you running ubuntu 11.04? | 18:57 |
| mgmt | Tayler: no, 13.04 | 18:57 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: nope, no intel embedded gpu nonesense | 18:57 |
| Tayler | mgmt, okay, set it back to default values, then try: Edit /etc/default/grub change the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="" then run sudo update-grub2 | 18:57 |
| Wolfje | gustav_: Doesnt work | 18:57 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: It's more than GPU, I think. It's less power consuming. My whole laptop only consumes 60W. | 18:57 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: then grab an nvidia card, oh look, no bumblebee rubbish | 18:57 |
| Tayler | then, reboot your system, and tell me what line of text your computer hangs on | 18:58 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: in laptops i use only intel gpus, loads less power | 18:58 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Newer version of the nVidia driver doesn't require bumblebee. | 18:58 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: Which? | 18:58 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: still not using it, its a poor solution to the problem it is intended to resolve | 18:59 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: I wasn't aware of it when I bought it. | 19:00 |
| gustav_ | I got the impression it was "problem free." | 19:00 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: thats the main issure, nobody does a tinybit of research before buying. you can save yourself effort and heartache by researching products you intrnd to buy to see how things go with it | 19:01 |
| Wolfje | gustav_: Doesnt work | 19:01 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Yeah but I can't research everything. That would take years and years. The problem now is the support and stubborn developers. | 19:01 |
| Wolfje | gustav_: If i doe the unity protocol he says not founded | 19:02 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: What doesn't work? | 19:02 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: Did you search for it? | 19:02 |
| Wolfje | gustav_: yES | 19:02 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: Maybe it's not in the repos. | 19:02 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: You're gonna have to download it and install it yourself. | 19:02 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: look at what you want to buy, then check it out to see how it goes with Ubuntu. Not researching much at all..... | 19:03 |
| mgmt | Tayler: so setting that line to nothing in grub still shows the splash. I set it to nosplash and it doesn't hang. Is there | 19:03 |
| mgmt | is there a way to reinstall splash? | 19:03 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: I bought my laptop from a company that sells it with Ubuntu. I assumed it was guaranteed to work. | 19:03 |
| ActionParsnip | gustav_: if they set it up nice for you then itll probably work | 19:04 |
| gustav_ | ActionParsnip: Yeah. ok | 19:04 |
| gustav_ | Anyone have a problem? | 19:07 |
| seronis | yes.. but its xfce specific | 19:07 |
| gustav_ | Ok? | 19:08 |
| gustav_ | I'm not in XFCE but I have used it before. | 19:08 |
| seronis | cant figure out how to get Thunar to do REAL alphabetical name ordering when viewing files in list view | 19:08 |
| Wolfje | gustav_: Do you know where I can find that packages | 19:08 |
| seronis | its using the Windows 'smart' method which is @#$%@ incorrect | 19:08 |
| gustav_ | Wolfje: I'd Google it. | 19:08 |
| gustav_ | seronis: Dirs first? | 19:09 |
| seronis | i have a TON (thousands) of hash based files.. | 19:09 |
| seronis | and all the ones that happen to have their names start with 0's are out of order | 19:09 |
| bluechaos | hello | 19:09 |
| bluechaos | someone ? | 19:09 |
| seronis | because it treats numbers at the beginning of a filename as all one 'value' instead of on a character by character basis | 19:09 |
| sarge1221 | Did the skype4pidgin project fall apart? | 19:09 |
| seronis | it puts things like 00000000009.bat AFTER a file like 8zzzzzzzzzzzz.bat | 19:10 |
| gustav_ | seronis: You think they implemented it wrong or an option is set wrong? | 19:10 |
| bluechaos | I have a problem How to install vga ubuntu version 11.04 | 19:10 |
| bluechaos | I cannot play without it | 19:11 |
| gustav_ | seronis: Sorry, I'm a programmer, I might talk about internals. | 19:11 |
| seronis | its intended to be a smart option so that purely numeric based filenames will go in Numeric order | 19:11 |
| seronis | i dont want numeric order.. i want alphabetical | 19:11 |
| seronis | so am I.. its why the filenames are using hashes as the name | 19:11 |
| seronis | they're all various data sets | 19:12 |
| gustav_ | seronis: It looks correct to me. | 19:12 |
| gustav_ | seronis: What Ubuntu? | 19:12 |
| seronis | xubuntu 13.04 | 19:12 |
| gustav_ | Oh. 6bea... came before 08.jpg ... That's not right. | 19:12 |
| seronis | exactly | 19:12 |
| gustav_ | So it's 3,4,5,5,6,0,1 | 19:13 |
| bluechaos | guys can u help me... | 19:13 |
| gustav_ | seronis: I'd call that a bug. | 19:13 |
| seronis | its not a bug.. its numeric ordering instead of alphabetical order | 19:13 |
| seronis | its just a horrible horrible feature | 19:13 |
| Wolfje | gustav_: Thanks... | 19:13 |
| seronis | windows7 does the same thing.. if a filename is prefixed with numeric digits it takes ALL the digits as one numeric value before sorting | 19:14 |
| seronis | instead of doing it letter by letter | 19:14 |
| gustav_ | seronis: So change the filenames then. | 19:14 |
| seronis | not an option .. they're hashes of the contents | 19:14 |
| wting | When creating a bootable USB, what filesystem does it need to be? | 19:14 |
| wting | FAT32? | 19:15 |
| gustav_ | seronis: Index them as you'd like them sorted. | 19:15 |
| gustav_ | 9g8gr88r to 1 g9u8df8 to 2, etc | 19:15 |

| i4c | hi i have a issue when i installed some packages, all my audio was lost, it could detect only 1 out of 2 audio outputs and html5 and totem play 3 times the speed, any ideas on how to fix this problem ? by either reseting all sound or anything, i am very noob and clueless | 19:17 |
| gustav_ | seronis: XFCE people are very stuck up about their choices. KDE will probably work better or let you chose. | 19:17 |
| erpo | I need to replace the failing hard drive in my Ubuntu 13.04 system. It has a regular BIOS (not UEFI). I think there might be problems with a 3TB HDD because I would have to use GPT to access the full capacity of the drive, but a PC BIOS won't boot from a GPT disk. Thoughts? | 19:17 |
| gustav_ | seronis: Basically you're not in Windows any more. | 19:18 |
| OerHeks | erpo does your bios support 3 tb ? | 19:18 |
| seronis | which is the whole point. installed xubu 2 weeks ago and trying to solve my 'issues' as they come up | 19:18 |
| seronis | so far i havent had any thing bad enough to even make me consider switching back | 19:18 |
| gustav_ | The problem with Linux you always get STUCK. | 19:18 |
| gustav_ | And you come here, and no one helps. | 19:19 |
| erpo | OerHeks: I didn't realize a non-UEFI BIOS could support 3TB. | 19:19 |
| OerHeks | erpo it can, check the manual. | 19:19 |
| erpo | OerHeks: I will. Thanks! | 19:20 |
| seronis | its not quite that bad =-) this is the only thing im currently 'stuck' on. Got mailto: links set to use gmail with a 2 line script. Got a script to be able to grab screen captures, auto upload them to imgur and put a link to the url in the clipboard for quick sharing | 19:20 |
| seronis | dev environment (CodeBlocks, IntelliJ, Boost, SFML, OpenGL, Java) all set up very easily | 19:21 |
| gustav_ | I'm happy about most things with my setup right now. Some major problems... Flash lags... Too hot CPU... optirun/nvidia crashes in supertuxkart. | 19:21 |
| seronis | the nvidia (preferred, tested) drivers work but dont allow me to compile my own SFML apps. havent had an issue with XOrg generic drive | 19:22 |
| gustav_ | And of course Shuttleworth seems like a moron. | 19:22 |
| gustav_ | seronis: Preferred & tested...? | 19:22 |
| seronis | it was marked that way in the restricted driver control panel | 19:22 |
| Ari-Yang | hi, I seem to have a problem with hdmi | 19:22 |
| gustav_ | o_o | 19:23 |
| gustav_ | Xorg has removed so much control I used to have over the X server. | 19:23 |
| Ari-Yang | I hook up my laptop to hdmi, then go to system settings and then display. I select the name of the monitor and hit 'apply' and I get this http://gyazo.com/3d41bc2ddb8d8ec93784b08eaa8a7eb1 | 19:23 |
| Ari-Yang | (I'm using E17 DE btw) | 19:23 |
| gustav_ | Only to become more instable and only to satisfy Windows game nerds. | 19:23 |
| seronis | just rechecked.. (proprietary, tested) the 3.10 driver | 19:24 |
| Ari-Yang | here's a screen shot of the Displays window http://gyazo.com/34d56368449b277e7f2a8ac75f0a4ecb | 19:24 |
| seronis | i figure i would try the 'tested' one .. and a couple steam games and sfml apps didnt work | 19:24 |
| gustav_ | I'm running 313.09. It's bad. | 19:24 |
| seronis | didnt try the others cause XOrg was working before trying the nvidia one | 19:24 |
| gustav_ | But fast. | 19:24 |
| seronis | i have noticed flash lags sometimes. is that specific to the adobe package? its what was installed from the liveusb. havent tried the generic | 19:26 |
| Ari-Yang | I'm using open source drivers if that helps | 19:26 |
| gustav_ | seronis: I have no idea. Seems like scheduling is wrong. I have no idea. | 19:26 |
| seronis | ok | 19:27 |

| swiftkick | Ben64: OK | 20:42 |
| swiftkick | Ben64: WHere do I set ViewPortIn and ViewPortOut metamodes if not xorg.conf ? | 20:42 |
| swiftkick | Without them, the screen overscans horribly. | 20:42 |
| Ben64 | is it a tv? | 20:42 |
| question23874 | Is this the place to ask questions for ubuntu? I got here following the guide on help.ubuntu.com | 20:42 |
| swiftkick | yes | 20:43 |
| sourav | ok converted a .mkv video to mpeg2 picture is present but audio is absent while playing in dvd player however the file plays ok in vlc smplayer | 20:43 |
| Ben64 | swiftkick: disable overscan on the tv | 20:43 |
| swiftkick | Ben64: HAHAHAHaHahahahahHAHAhahahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahah (sorry) | 20:43 |
| swiftkick | Ben64: if only it were so. :-( | 20:43 |
| Ben64 | i did it on my tv, it's not hard | 20:43 |
| swiftkick | Ben64: Ive been through this a few times in the past. The option doesnt exist on this TV. Its a mitsubishi 60" DLP. | 20:44 |
| Ari-Yang | gustav___, little bit nervous editing grub, not sure where to put the line radeon.audio=1 | 20:44 |
| Ben64 | anything else and you won't be getting full hd | 20:44 |
| sourav | ny ideas | 20:44 |
| sourav | does dvd players support ac3 audio ?? | 20:45 |
| gustav___ | Ari-Yang: No worries. Add it to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT. w8 | 20:45 |
| swiftkick | Ben64: Its a DLP. it looks like crap anyway. Without the viewportin and viewportout settings, the screen is physically shifted even when the nvidia drivers drive the standard EDID timings for that mode. | 20:45 |
| betrayd | sourav: some do | 20:45 |
| sourav | which is the best audio format for dvd players aac ac3 mp2 ?? | 20:45 |
| gustav___ | Ari-Yang: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5678430/ | 20:46 |
| ogny | iyi abi jekyll ve jekyllbootstrap takilicam biraz | 20:46 |
| gustav___ | Hmm. Or wait a minute. | 20:46 |
| ogny | pardon | 20:46 |
| Ari-Yang | o: | 20:46 |
| sourav | betrayd, does samsung support ac3 | 20:46 |
| gustav___ | No, that's correct. :D | 20:46 |
| gustav___ | Sorry. | 20:46 |
| Ben64 | sourav: every dvd player does ace | 20:46 |
| Ben64 | ac3* | 20:46 |
| gustav___ | Ari-Yang: You need to run sudo update-grub, as well. | 20:46 |
| question23874 | Can I remove the authentication popup for installing or removing software in ubuntu 13.04? I don't want to disable security/root/sudo for anything else, just for installing/removing software | 20:47 |

| Ari-Yang | that look right? | 20:51 |
| gustav___ | Ari-Yang: Excellent. | 20:51 |
| linuxfreak78 | Hello all. Sorry to post a duplicate message but I was having trouble with IRC and am not sure if my first one showed up. I am trying to disable touchpad scrolling completely within Unity/Gnome. I could easily set this in versions prior to 13.04, but the option does not seem to be available in the GUI now. Anyway, I found some commands and placed them in a bash script (which works when run from a terminal), but | 20:51 |
| linuxfreak78 | I cannot seem to get it to run when I login to Unity. Does anyone have suggestions? | 20:51 |
| Ari-Yang | gustav___, this won't break anything, will it? | 20:52 |
| sourav | ario_, http://www.howtogeek.com/115797/6-ways-to-speed-up-ubuntu/ | 20:52 |
| gustav___ | Ari-Yang: No guarantees. :) | 20:52 |

| sourav | help me ppl will a mpeg2 video with ac3 audio play in home dvd players help plsss | 20:53 |
| exad | sourav: depends on the dvd player really. | 20:54 |
| sourav | aah | 20:54 |
| Ari-Yang | gustav___, yeah, want to read up on something on pulse audio before doing this. thanks for your help :D | 20:54 |
| Ari-Yang | I'll let you know how it works out | 20:54 |
| zykotick9 | sourav: using mp2 audio is the safest most cross-platform option. | 20:54 |
| gustav___ | Ari-Yang: Just reboot. No problem. It's the driver that's crippled. | 20:55 |
| sourav | yea mp2 option is there | 20:55 |
| sourav | really strange man audio works in my desktop aah | 20:55 |
| gustav___ | Ari-Yang: You can put moses-third-nipple=1 or whatever there, it won't break anything. | 20:55 |
| sourav | zykotick9, mp3 option failed :( | 20:55 |
| zykotick9 | sourav: that's normal. most dvd players won't understand dvd video + mp3 | 20:56 |
| sourav | :p | 20:56 |
| exad | yeah there's few that support it | 20:56 |
| betrayd | he said mp2, sourav | 20:56 |
| exad | no he said mp3 option failed | 20:56 |
| sourav | zykotick9, mpeg2 + ac3 = <3 or </3 ?? :D | 20:56 |
| sourav | jus telling ya i knw mp2 | 20:57 |
| exad | sourav: the only way to know for sure is to try or check the manual of the DVD player | 20:57 |
| Ari-Yang | gustav___, okay | 20:57 |
| Ari-Yang | in a min. | 20:57 |
| sourav | samsung standard dvd player | 20:57 |

| bazhang | !ot | gustav___ | 20:59 |
| ubottu | gustav___: #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! | 20:59 |
| exad | sourav: good | 20:59 |
| gustav___ | Oops. | 20:59 |
| sourav | u sure man exad | 20:59 |
| bazhang | sourav, contact the sourceforge creators of that app | 21:00 |
| exad | no, I'm not sure, that's the point | 21:00 |
| exad | I told you how to be sure | 21:00 |
| sourav | mailed em but they r not replying | 21:00 |
| bazhang | sourav, thats not an ubunt issue | 21:00 |
| bazhang | +u | 21:00 |
| sourav | dude but its an app of ubuntu | 21:00 |
| betrayd | sourav: if you called it 'standard dvd player' that won't help anyone | 21:00 |
| bazhang | sourav, transcoder is not an app of ubuntu | 21:00 |
| sourav | of c it is bazhang | 21:01 |
| exad | -_- | 21:01 |
| bazhang | !info transcoder | sourav | 21:01 |
| ubottu | sourav: Package transcoder does not exist in raring | 21:01 |
| sourav | 32 bit deb package | 21:01 |
| sourav | Transcoder is a video converter for Linux using GTK+ as GUI toolkit and ffmpeg as backend. | 21:01 |
| sourav | It is distributed under the GNU General Public License. | 21:01 |
| Ari-Yang | gustav___, running sudo update-grub | 21:02 |
| auronandace | sourav: no, you are trying to get something to play in a dvd player (you could be converting it in any os) | 21:02 |
| bazhang | sourav, being in .deb format does NOT make it part of the ubuntu software repos | 21:02 |
| sourav | whachu talkin bout bazhang ubuntu is linux | 21:02 |
| exad | Supported or not, I gave you the info you need sourav, do with it what you will | 21:02 |
| bazhang | handbrake will do it without question | 21:02 |
| Ari-Yang | okay, all that's left there now is to reboot.... | 21:03 |
| zykotick9 | bazhang: ahhh, handbrake doesn't support mpeg... just saying. | 21:03 |
| === jack is now known as Guest49162 | ||

| zykotick9 | bazhang: not as output... | 21:03 |

| sesshomaru | Hey all, I'm looking for a program that will run a chat server over telnet, 12.04 server. | 21:04 |
| exad | I didn't read much about it, but it does seem possible | 21:04 |
| zykotick9 | bazhang: only MPEG2 is "standard" for dvd players, and handbrake no longer does that (and hasn't for a while) | 21:04 |
| bazhang | zykotick9, thats odd, my dvd player can do it with the handbrake output no problemo | 21:05 |
| zykotick9 | bazhang: that CERTAINLY could be true, BUT that isn't a "real" dvd | 21:05 |
| Ari-Yang | alright | 21:06 |
| Ari-Yang | time to test | 21:06 |
| bazhang | well he's gone, and we are getting a wee bit ot, so perhaps we should move on | 21:06 |
| zykotick9 | :) | 21:06 |
| Ari-Yang | gustav___, I should do the norm and after running xrandr --auto | 21:06 |
| Ari-Yang | I select hdmi output under sound settings of System settings | 21:06 |

| gustav___ | Ari-Yang: Are you rebooted? | 21:07 |
| Ari-Yang | gustav___, yeah I rebooted | 21:07 |
| gustav___ | Ari-Yang: Alright. xrandr --auto and check alsamixer. | 21:08 |
| gustav___ | F6 1. | 21:08 |
| Ari-Yang | gustav___, no need | 21:08 |
| Ari-Yang | it works | 21:08 |
| Ari-Yang | but I'll check it | 21:08 |

| chachan | hi gus, a quick question about AWS/EC2, I purchased two reserved instances, should I launch them using the "Instances" list, it says "on demand" instances. Would a "on demand" instance fill a reserved instance position? | 21:09 |
| gustav___ | Ari-Yang: There should be more windowy tools that will let you mix. I just like using the keyboard, or not... eh. Well. My mousepad is kind of small, so. | 21:09 |
| chachan | I'm not really sure how to launch a reserved instance | 21:09 |
| Ari-Yang | gustav___, it still looks the same in alsamixer, whatever | 21:10 |
| Ari-Yang | it works | 21:10 |
| Ari-Yang | lol | 21:10 |
| Ari-Yang | thanks for all of your help | 21:10 |

| OerHeks | chachan, how is this related to ubuntu? | 21:10 |
| chachan | OerHeks, the instances are ubuntu-served-based | 21:10 |
| chachan | OerHeks, you might have experience | 21:11 |
| bazhang | chachan, aws has a channel here on freenode | 21:11 |
| OerHeks | chachan the server part, sure, i have no clue, try #aws ? | 21:12 |
| chachan | bazhang, I know, there're less than 200 users there, and more than 1500 in here. Is this causing a problem?. Maybe one in the list know about it. I won't make noise | 21:13 |
| chachan | and it's weekend =( | 21:13 |
| WildRose | Hey, I have sort of an interesting problem guys | 21:15 |
| gustav___ | WildRose: Go on. | 21:16 |
| WildRose | Sorry, Was doublechecking version | 21:16 |
| WildRose | I'm running cmdline 12.04 on a hybrid server | 21:16 |
| gustav___ | Hybrid? | 21:17 |
| WildRose | It's sort of a cross between a dedicated and a vps | 21:17 |
| gustav___ | OpenVZ? | 21:17 |
| WildRose | erm..not sure exactly what that is. | 21:18 |
| gustav___ | Runs child OSes inside the host kernel. | 21:18 |
| WildRose | closest thing I can give you is the site says they use KVM virtualization tech | 21:19 |
| cloneG | hello is there any nvidia-settings widget I could add to the menu bar in the desktop? ubuntu 12.04 here | 21:19 |
| gustav___ | KVM is qemu, I think. | 21:19 |
| cloneG | so that I could keep an eye for the gpu temperature... | 21:19 |
| WildRose | well, onto my problem then? | 21:19 |
| Ari-Yang | cloneG, type sensors in terminal and if you don't have it install it | 21:20 |
| Ari-Yang | that's what I use | 21:20 |
| Ari-Yang | though on this DE I'm running on, it comes with a temperature app... maybe you can google around to see if you can find a temperature app yourself? | 21:20 |
| WildRose | my access is set to /bin/bash in the accounts, but I cannot use sudo, nor get root. | 21:20 |
| cloneG | Ari-Yang I did but that is not easy to check...I need to open terminal and type | 21:21 |
| Ari-Yang | cloneG, maybe run sudo apt-get install sensors ? | 21:21 |
| WildRose | No matter what I cahnge on sudo it gives me "<my name> is not in the sudoers file, this incident will be reported." | 21:21 |
| betrayd | giving them the order to stand down | 21:22 |
| WildRose | I can't edit the sudoers file without root...root is disabled thanks to ubuntu... | 21:22 |
| WildRose | can't access without sudo which is what I can't use in first place :x | 21:22 |
| lifeboy | Wildrose: Good security, hey :-) | 21:23 |
| lifeboy | WildRose: Good security, hey :-) | 21:23 |
| seronis | looks like its doing its job then .... | 21:23 |
| WildRose | well | 21:23 |
| WildRose | How do I get to use apt-get :/ | 21:23 |
| WildRose | I can't run the game server without installing a couple of packages. | 21:23 |
| cloneG | Ari-Yang sensors doesnt give me graphics card gpu temperature info only cpu...nvidia-settings does but I would like to add it to the title bar | 21:24 |
| seronis | install them in your home directory instead of globally if you're not an administrator on your system | 21:24 |
| gordonjcp | !apt | WildRose | 21:24 |
| ubottu | WildRose: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome), !Muon (KDE) or !Apper (KDE) | 21:24 |
| Ari-Yang | cloneG, I'm not sure then :s what DE are you on? perhaps you can join its channel here on freenode and ask for a temp app? | 21:25 |
| ogny | hi, i'm on ubuntu 13, unity. i use dual monitor on 2 workspaces, when i switch to other one, cursor doesn't go the new workspace, so, i must drag the cursor new one, is there a solution for moving cursor to the new workspace | 21:25 |
| cloneG | Ari-Yang DE? whats that? | 21:25 |
| Ari-Yang | desktop environment | 21:25 |
| Ari-Yang | like unity | 21:25 |
| Ari-Yang | E17 | 21:25 |
| Ari-Yang | cinnamon | 21:25 |
| seronis | WildRose, if you are supposed to have admin privledges.. log in with an account that has those privs and install what you need | 21:25 |
| FloodBot1 | Ari-Yang: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 21:25 |
| cloneG | Ari-Yang i am using ubuntu classic but with mac osx theme | 21:26 |
| WildRose | Seems I'll need to talk to the host.. Thanks for the help guys | 21:26 |
| Ari-Yang | oh, I'm not sure then, idle here for a while, somebody will probably help | 21:26 |
| StaticLNX | is there a console tool for services that uses something like ncurses? | 21:26 |
| cloneG | Ari-Yang thanks | 21:26 |
| gordonjcp | StaticLNX: to do what? | 21:27 |
| seronis | WildRose, OR as i also suggested.. dont install the package globally but install it into your home directory | 21:27 |
| gordonjcp | WildRose: you'd likely need root privileges to install packages | 21:27 |
| seronis | http://askubuntu.com/questions/339/how-can-i-install-a-package-without-root-access has tips on how to do that | 21:27 |
| WildRose | Ah, I missed that, thanks seronis | 21:27 |
| cloneG | Id like to add a nvidia-settings widget to warn me just in case gpu gets too hot | 21:27 |
| WildRose | I'll look into that really quickly :) | 21:27 |
| StaticLNX | manage services and specify runlevels | 21:28 |
| bazhang | !runlevel | StaticLNX | 21:29 |
| ubottu | StaticLNX: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 21:29 |
| gordonjcp | StaticLNX: wouldn't that be a bit complicated? | 21:29 |
| bazhang | StaticLNX, please state exactly what you are trying to do | 21:29 |
| StaticLNX | manipulate services based on runlevels | 21:32 |
| cloneG | how would I call nvidia-settings gpu temperature from terminal? | 21:32 |
| th0r | cloneG, I believe it is part of lm_sensors...there is info online regarding implementing lm_sensors | 21:33 |
| bazhang | StaticLNX, why would you need to do that? did you see the bot factoid about runlevels in ubuntu? | 21:33 |
| StaticLNX | sorry I am new to ubunto, I came from a gentoo-LFS background | 21:34 |
| StaticLNX | yes | 21:34 |

| ssokolow | My brother's 12.10 system fails to install nvidia-experimental-310 (needed for Steam for Linux) with "ERROR (dkms apport): kernel package linux-headers-3.8.0-20-lowlatency is not supported". (it was 12.04 LTS until last night, same problem) Suggestions? | 21:37 |
| giNeeRing | bazhang: alright there, but the concept of an app that can be wirelessly installed and then give you access. | 21:38 |
| ronalds | ssokolow, cause 12.10 has 3.5 kernel, whil 3.8 is in raring 13.04 | 21:38 |
| StaticLNX | static@ubuntu:~$ sudo service mysql add "is this correct" | 21:39 |
| bazhang | giNeeRing, its offtopic here, no connection to ubuntu | 21:39 |
| kaylee | How do I find which repository my system is using? Its backtrack gnome, thats all I know. I know its ubuntu based... I need to download some packages from the offline repository so I can get some programs working right, I know which ones I need, just not which <enter strange name of ubuntu realease here> to download from... I was hoping that the system would tell me which repository I should download from manually... | 21:39 |
| OerHeks | cloneG, try " nvidia-smi" | 21:40 |
| bazhang | kaylee, check your sources.list | 21:40 |
| ssokolow | ronalds: Well, according to uname, it's running 3.8. I'm a Gentoo user. All this extra complexity that comes from having a package manager that can't just recompile and relink as needed is outside my area of expertise. | 21:40 |
| giNeeRing | bazhang: thank you atleast for addressing it | 21:40 |
| * giNeeRing salutes bazhang | 21:40 | |
| kittenhands | \o/ | 21:40 |
| ronalds | I have problem with kdenlive today, as it suddenly started to have segmentation faults, and stutters on rendering some video. | 21:40 |
| ssokolow | ronalds: Are you saying the simplest solution is just to complete the process of moving from LTS to current (raring)? | 21:40 |
| bazhang | kaylee, for the actual bt info, you'd have to ask in bt support chan: #backtrack-linux | 21:41 |
| ronalds | well he have 12.10, awfull release | 21:41 |
| kaylee | bazhang: fabulous, I am glad there is some support for it specifically :) Thanks | 21:42 |
| bazhang | ssokolow, 12.10 is not LTS by the way | 21:42 |
| ronalds | I just hate when 54 seconds have left to complete rendering, and nothing happens | 21:42 |
| ssokolow | bazhang: He was on 12.04 LTS last night. We're on 12.10 because we're on the way to 13.04 and my usual policy is to fix upgrade breakages before doing another upgrade. | 21:43 |
| kaylee | bazhang: they say they are no longer supporting it at all, and that they have some new project that you have to download... | 21:43 |
| ronalds | anyone kdenlive? | 21:43 |

| krys | bazhang: how would i check? the OS is on a usb drive that I have mounted on my laptop | 22:42 |
| krys | it doesnt appear to be full | 22:43 |
| krys | the device itself has 4.3GB free of 8 | 22:43 |
| bazhang | krys, is there a separate /boot ? is this persistent usb? | 22:44 |

| krys | i installed ubuntu server to a USB stick if thats what your asking | 22:45 |
| krys | bazhang: so yes i believe its persistent | 22:45 |
| bazhang | krys, the server is a loop mounted usb stick on your laptop? | 22:46 |
| krys | bazhang: its just weird I dont get an error or anything at boot, it just reboots | 22:46 |
| bazhang | krys, or just the iso? | 22:46 |
| krys | so i dont event know where to begin | 22:46 |
| krys | it is usually on a different system, I just have it in my laptop to try and fix it | 22:47 |
| krys | bazhang: did that answer your question? | 22:50 |
| bazhang | krys, this is way outside my knowledge base; it's server, so perhaps if you also ask in #ubuntu-server they can help. apologies | 22:51 |

| utente | ,,,,,, | 22:57 |
| bazhang | TheJetse, what are you trying to do exactly | 22:57 |
| SunTsu | TheJetse: OK, then it probably it is /server <ip> | 22:57 |
| bazhang | TheJetse, please be very clear | 22:57 |
| TheJetse | Connect to a different server then the standard ubuntu server | 22:57 |
| SunTsu | I'm too used to irssi where it's /connect, while xchat uses /connect in order to connect two irc servers | 22:57 |
| bazhang | and he quit | 22:57 |
| SunTsu | bazhang: Yeah, because he switched to a different server | 22:58 |
| SunTsu | which he wanted | 22:58 |
| bazhang | SunTsu, you can connect to multiple | 22:58 |
| SunTsu | bazhang: yeah, I know, he didn't :> | 22:58 |
| bazhang | even xchat has that | 22:58 |
| TheJetse | It worked, came back to say thank you :) | 22:59 |
| TheJetse | the command /server <ip> was alright | 22:59 |
| SunTsu | You're welcome | 22:59 |

| bazhang | !find xev | 23:49 |
| Ari-Yang | hmmm. @ inv- I found this http://www.webupd8.org/2011/06/linux-kernel-power-issue-fix.html not sure adding pcie_aspm=force is safe, what does it do? | 23:49 |
| ubottu | Found: libxcb-xevie0, libxcb-xevie0-dbg, libxcb-xevie0-dev, xevil | 23:49 |
| bazhang | !info xevil | 23:49 |
| ubottu | xevil (source: xevil): A violent side-scrolling game for X. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.02r2-10 (raring), package size 572 kB, installed size 2132 kB | 23:49 |
| bazhang | hah not that | 23:49 |
| inv- | Ari-Yang, | 23:49 |
| Ari-Yang | ? | 23:49 |
| inv- | I think this might help you the guy has a similar problem | 23:49 |
| inv- | http://askubuntu.com/questions/225631/ouch-laptop-running-super-hot-after-12-10-upgrade | 23:49 |
| Ari-Yang | inv-, yeah, I think that guy switched over to flgrx drivers | 23:52 |
| Ari-Yang | which wouldn't really help for me | 23:52 |
| inv- | Nah he purged the ones he had, and added another repository | 23:53 |
| BlackDalek | There is only 2Gb ram installed, so would that mean running a 64-bit OS would have no benefit even though the PCU supports it? | 23:53 |
| BlackDalek | CPU* | 23:53 |
| inv- | did you add andrikos rep? | 23:53 |
| Dr_willis | Some tasks would be faster on a 64bit os with 64bithardware BlackDalek . | 23:54 |
| Dr_willis | BlackDalek, might not be noticeable in all cases. | 23:55 |
| [[thufir]] | I'm just starting out with nmap and am trying to scan, I think, localhost to see how much bandwith is being consumed and to what website. I'm reading the manpage, is this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5678866/ the sort of result I want to see open connections and speeds? | 23:55 |
| Ari-Yang | inv-, no I didn't add andrikos' rep | 23:57 |
| Ari-Yang | but I doubt fglrx will help at all | 23:57 |
| Ari-Yang | I tried it 3x in the past and it gave me nasty tearing in videos | 23:57 |
| Ari-Yang | not to mention when closing the laptop and re-opening it, it wouldn't wake up | 23:57 |
| s3b` | has anyone here successfuly gotten flstudio working with ubuntu? | 23:57 |
| inv- | I remember i implemented this solution on my brother's laptop envy 5 series, it worked good. | 23:58 |
| inv- | 15* | 23:58 |
| [[thufir]] | is there such a package as bmon to monitor bandwidth? I can't find it in apt... | 23:59 |
