Dr_willistones,  i will belive it when i see it in the stores.00:52
surfdaemonI'll believe it when it's in my cold dead hand.00:52
wildwindWeThePeople: where do you see them then, if Nautilus can't open it?00:53
Dr_willisWeThePeople,  the network:// i think is like special location that scans all the network. but i cant recall ever using it.00:53
Dr_willisWeThePeople,  you can also mount samba shares by hand to a local directroy00:53
toneswas just watching the youtube videos of the phone, interface looks good00:53
WeThePeoplewildwind, gksudo cant handle it00:54
WeThePeopleit is smb00:54
Dr_willistones,  personally i was not that impressed.. but it will be some time i imagine befor you can actually get a device like it from a major carrier.00:54
Dr_willisWeThePeople,  if you ran nautilus  with gksudo. it may be trying to access the shares as  the 'root' user. not your normal user name.00:54

Questhx wildwind01:01
puffDr_willis: It's unmounted now (it's my bulk data partition). Any particular reason I need to fsck it from a live partition instead of from the regular shell?01:09

xeviox_Hey, a seemingly successful install of ubuntu 13.04 won't boot... I've never had this issue with any other version of ubuntu - anyone know what might be the culprit?01:24
tonesDr_willis, in the software center it says the deb and gdebi packages are already installed01:25
LinuxNewbieDr_willis, just because i want to know what files a package contain before installing it and where those files will be placed ...ok ...i'll try to download a .deb and then look at it01:25
rypervencheLinuxNewbie: I believe there are ways to do it. I'm not sure with Debian-based distros though, I think there's apt-file(s)01:25
wildwindLinuxNewbie: apt-get download, then dpkg -L01:26
rypervencheLinuxNewbie: wildwind's way is faster though.01:26
puffwildwind: I don't have the space, but it's a bulk data partition, so most of what's on it should be recoverable by other means.01:26
tonessynaptic package manager, gdebi installer and gdebi core are installed01:26
puffwildwind: e.g. re-ripping CDs, re-downloading tar files ore installers, etc.01:26
tonesGnea, what version are you using?01:27
puffDr_willis: Can you suggest some good google search terms for this?01:27

Gneatones: 12.0401:27
tonesGnea, but can you make a call?01:27
LinuxNewbiewildwind, dpgk -L it's useful if i have installed the package ...or at least this is what know so far...ty ...i'll have a look01:27
Gneatones: so it 'just works'01:27
Gneatones: sec01:27
Gneatones: ah no, it takes me to the same link01:27
tonesGnea, same here, so what's the solution01:28
rypervencheLinuxNewbie: dpkg is for .deb files.01:28
tonesI want to use google voice,01:28
tonesbut if you're on 12 that's not the issue01:28
xeviox_Hey, a seemingly successful install of ubuntu 13.04 won't boot... I've never had this issue with any other version of ubuntu - anyone know what might be the culprit? there's no UEFI entry in the bios could be the problem?01:28

zerairypervenche, so like.. set LANG=zh_CN.UTF-801:32

rypervenchezerai: If you want to use that locale throughout the entire script, go ahead and do "export LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8" at the beginning of the script.01:32

jgcampbell300I have 10-15 ubuntu desktops and several ubuntu servers around 20 or so on my lan at home (mostly for testing) I would like to setup either a proxy or repo ... i was looking at apt-cacher but it requires changing the source list ... my question is does anyone know of a way to setup something to (for the lack of the proper term) cache all updates that are requested on the lan with out changeing the client computers ?02:01
Dr_willisapt-cacher-ng requires i think one extra file in the /etc/apt/config dirs02:02

jgcampbell300nice ill have to check it out ... thanks ... just really do not want to have to make changes to every build as i go throu a few builds a day some times02:04
Dr_willisi just seem to recall needing to cut/paste/add one file.  but its been a while02:04

mtreecemeLon: I think I know the problem you're talking about, I suffer the same whenver I've got a color shell prompt.03:29
FrozenFireGiven that I encrypt all filesystems03:29
rypervencheFrozenFire: What did you use to encrypt it?03:29
FrozenFireI'll just have to try to pull the data out of my duplicity backups03:29
pryzrakdonnelly: are you refering to Access Point?03:30
BillJobsI've messed around with xrandr but when it comes to the xorg.conf based configuration part, I'm totally lost. I'm starting to learn so I have no clue what I'm doing in there.03:30
FrozenFirerypervenche, Doesn't *really* matter. The filesystem is already overwritten03:30
rypervencheFrozenFire: It DOES matter if you want your data back.03:30
lotuspsychjeBillJobs: ask in channel howto add a res in xrandr03:30
FrozenFireNope. There's zero chance of recovery at this point, for the on-disk info. Recovering from the duplicity backups is still a possibility, since it's most likely just a software failure in deja-dup03:31
donnellyI have files - mostly docs and media that I need to share.03:31
donnellywireless - yeas03:31
FrozenFireI do actually get a fair number of recovered files out03:31
FrozenFireIt just hangs each time I try to restore03:31
lotuspsychjeFrozenFire: any deja-dup errors?03:31
rypervencheFrozenFire: Well I feel you won't get much help from people here if you're not willing to help us help you.03:31
BillJobsHow to add a res in xrandr?03:32
deezedHey guys! I`m having a problem with my kxstudio here, when I try to upgrade or install nvidia-current I always get this message: errors were encountered while processing: nvidia-current03:32
deezeddo u know what can I do03:32
deezed?03:32
FrozenFirerypervenche, To be honest, I'm not really looking for help. I'm just giving an FYI that people should check their deja-dup backups immediately03:32
FrozenFireSince mine just failed fairly catastrophically.03:32
FrozenFireI know what my options are in this case. ;)03:32
FrozenFireAlso, when referring to deja-dup, it should be clarified that I'm talking about the "Backup" utility in Ubuntu03:33
rypervencheFrozenFire: Apparently not. It is still possible to restore data from an encrypted partition, but it depends on the encryption and partition type that was used.03:33
pryzrakdonnelly: do you have server or desktop?03:33
FrozenFirerypervenche, It's not possible to recover overwritten data, though. ;)03:33
FrozenFireIt's fairly certain that the keys are overwritten at this point.03:33
lotuspsychjeFrozenFire: photorec can recover data from for away times...03:33
rypervencheFrozenFire: Nope, but I would think you wouldn't lose all of your data.03:33
BillJobsI think I'm just going to re-install windows 8 and try to fix the resolution issue there. This feels a bit way too advanced for a newb to figure out.03:34
FrozenFireI can say with certainty that it's not possible to recover from my old encrypted filesystem03:34
donnellyI have a desktop that I have tried to set as a server - wireless.  Internet access can be had through the wirless modem, file sharing is what I want to do.03:34
FrozenFireIt's already been overwritten quite completely.03:34
apb1963echoe_: I commented out the exit in the script... made no difference.03:34
lotuspsychjeBillJobs: keep asking in channel once in a while..its worth a wait03:34
rypervencheFrozenFire: Your loss then. We were willing to help.03:35
lotuspsychjeBillJobs: did you clean install ubuntu?03:35
FrozenFireNo need to be passive aggressive.03:35
echoe_mmmf.03:35
FrozenFireI didn't ask for help.03:35
donnellyI know how to do this in windows (not 7 or 8) but want to do this in linux03:35
FrozenFireAnd I'm qualified to figure the recovery out myself. :P03:35

TheUsDDr_willis: you said I could just right-click and share folder, what about an entire HDD?03:38
donnellydeezed, Nvidia is always a problem.  Keep it simple03:38
echoe_I think you're looking for screen -S [name] -d -m ./[name]03:38
apb1963-v gives version.  I open using "screen", and run it.. works fine. Doesn't exit.03:39
puffDr_willis: Hm, what do you think about the advice here, comment #11:  http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/size-in-superblock-is-different-from-the-physical-size-of-the-partition-298175/03:39
meLonNo, what you really want is -dURS    `screen -dURS SCREENNAME`03:39
apb1963[20:18] <apb1963> echoe_ I've tried a variety of ways... but the way I started with is: /usr/bin/screen -d -m -S ASTfastlog ./FastAGI_log.pl03:39
donnellyany ideas -03:39
meLonThat will resume, detach resume, or create your screen :D03:40
deezeddonnelly: I know, I just need to set mine. `Cause I always get the message errors were encountered while processing nvidia-current03:40
puffDr_willis: Basically suggesting:  resize2fs /dev/whatever thesizethatsuperblockthinksitis03:40
Dr_willispuff,  that sounds like what gparted does  as its a frontend to the backend cli tools.03:40
puffDr_willis: Not sure how to ask gparted to do that... I tried right-click Check, nothing happened.03:41
Dr_willispuff,  when you resize a partion thats what it does.. you DO have the partions Unmounted?03:41
Dr_willisresize it and shrink it down a little bit03:41
puffI guess Partition/Resize?03:41
puffYeah, the partition is unmounted.03:42
puffOkay, so resize it even smaller?03:42
Dr_willisor bigger.. see if it gets the correct #03:42
apb1963meLon: that's confusing... are you saying to execute as-is and then execute my script inside the screen that's created?03:42
donnellyIt's been a while, but I tried to "upgrade" and all I managed to do was make the graphics worse.  I run an older p4 with nvidia and use the default ubuntu settings.  Upgrading is not use - if you (?) have an older card.03:42
=== gwinbeee is now known as gwinbee
echoe_i thought it maybe was the order of the flags for some reason. /watches.03:43
deezeddonnelly: uhm, maybe can be that. In this case, do u know how can I downgrade?03:43
meLon`screen -dURS ttytter -c /home/meLon/.screenrc.ttytter` apb1963   .screenrc.ttytter: http://pastie.org/private/qsutncjzivvpweqkuyg9tw03:44
meLonapb1963: TBH I have no idea what you're trying to accomplish and only saw half of your messages.  This will create or restore your screen, whichever it needs to do.03:45
puffDr_willis: Hm, it said an error occurred, see the details. The details said "calibrate /dev/sda7" and "check file system on /dev/sda7 for errors and (if possible) fix them>'03:45
Dr_willispuff,  'fsck' the filesystem . may be all it needs03:46
puffWhich is pretty much the same thing as I got when I did right-click check, apply operations.03:46
Dr_willisgparted might be able do do that.. or 'sudo fsck /dev/sda7'03:46
donnellydeezed:  I did it through synaptic, but you may have to go to the Nvidia website or a secondary source.  Like I said it's been a while -- there are a lot of sources for help, but you have to know what model card your working with.  I assume you know this.03:46
puffOkay, I'll try that.03:46
apb1963meLon: I'm trying to use the "screen" utility to run a script.  The script is supposed to spawn some children to listen on a port.  The script works fine if I execute it from the command line.  But, when I execute it by using "screen", it exits immediately without comment.03:46
puffOkay, the first thing that fsck does is give me the superblock/physical size mis-match warning and prompt me to abort.03:47
puffI assume "no"?03:47
apb1963meLon:  I've tried a variety of ways... but the way I started with is: /usr/bin/screen -d -m -S ASTfastlog ./FastAGI_log.pl03:47
Dr_willisyou got imporntant stuff backed up i hope?03:47
meLonapb1963: So I'd use the command I've suggested and customize the screenrc file to launch your program03:47
puffDr_willis: Yeah.03:47
Dr_willisgo for it then. ;)03:48
puffWell okay then...03:48
Dr_willisor just delete the partions, remake, restore from bvackups..03:48
echoe_I think it might display the output in the screen session.03:48
puffHm, it ran, did some stuff, no obvious results.03:48
apb1963meLon: TBH I don't understand what you've got going on there in your example.03:48
meLonYou'll see at the bottom of the pastie to which I linked the part you'll want to modify (screen -t...).  Anything above that are just personal options I prefer, so you can delete them.  Let me know if you get it running using a screenrc file03:49
meLonSo, at the bottom you'll want to do:  screen -t "Title of screen" 0 /path/to/ASTfastlog ./FastAGI_log.pl03:49
apb1963echoe_: I'm not sure to what your comment refers?03:49
puffhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/5705641/03:50
deezeddonnelly: no, maybe I dont know which one is better for me. I`m using an Ubuntu 12.04 and a Nvidia 304.88. But I dont know which version I should have take. Do u know how can I check it03:50
Debomb72hello i'm trying to install Ubuntu onto the /dev/sda5 nstf, and when i click install now, it shows a window that says: "No root file system is defined. Please correct this from the partitioning menu"03:50
deezed?03:50
echoe_apb1963, I made a dumb testscript and am running it in my virtualbox instance and i think the screen command runs it in the screen instance which it then closes.03:50
deezedDebomb72: When u try to install it, just choose the mount point.03:51

rmobenchainhello everyone.  have a question concerning fsck03:51
meLonrmobenchain: Just ask and we'll see what we can do03:51
echoe_eg if I run my testscript that does echo testscript, it shows it to me, and if I run it with the screen command, it shows nothing, but if I touch testfile it touches the testfile.03:51
=== mayday is now known as Guest6988
Debomb72loganlee_: yes i meant to say ntfs, sorry about the typo03:52
apb1963echoe_ Yes perhaps, but the -d command detaches it... and so in the case of a port listener, it continues to run and you should be able to reattach with -r03:52
echoe_have you looked for the open screens?03:52
apb1963yes03:52
apb1963they're not there03:52
echoe_or they just don't ... weeeeird03:52
apb1963yeah03:52
apb1963welcome to my world :)03:52

echoe_yeah it's something in the script exiting it somehow, my test stuff is still open03:52
deezedDebomb72: u got it?03:53
meLon-dURS are the flags you want if you want it to:  Detach the screen if it's attached, Resume the screen if it exists, or create the screen if it does not exist03:53

loganlee_they are not encrypted i think03:55
puffloganlee_: Yeah, htpasswd files contain an encrypted password.03:55
loganlee_ook03:55
apb1963meLon: Those flags do indeed create a new screen... and that's all it does.  No output from the script.  The second time I run it, it terminates immediately.  screen -list shows nothing.03:56
deezeddonnelly: yes, probably! But what do u mean looked at this?03:56
meLonCan you show me the entire line you're entering, apb1963 ?03:56
donnellyThe link - http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-ia32-304.88-driver.html03:56

loganlee_konectd: oic i dunno ;)03:56
apb1963meLon: but wait.... I have children on my ports03:56

meLonI'm waiting around as you've said you've got something going on, yes apb196304:01
apb1963so the -dR combo is what seemed to work... but I'm trying to make sense of it.... I have other scripts that work with -dm04:02
puffkonectd: paste.ubuntu.com/5705366/04:02
apb1963and to be honest, this used to work until I started messing with the script04:02
apb1963I think there must be something in the script like echoe_ was saying04:02
donnellyDeezed:  Gotta look at that one - I use OZ b/c it has all the "bells and whistles" and comes ready to burn, share and do what I want for data, audio and video.  The version on this computer is 10.04 and the version on my usual laptop is 12.04.04:02

donnellyDeezed:  But back to your install, your going to have to take the plunge and try one of the options.  If it does not work - try a new install and choose a different option  If you have info on your computer, and dont want to loose it, then don;t format the drive and simply do a system overright.04:05

meLonParted Magic is a live distribution of linux you can install with the *latest* version of unetbootin onto a thumb drive.  It is great for fixing HDD issues konectd04:06
bradleyhello, i was wondering if it was possible to cluster multiple AMD 8350's and if so how would one do this?04:06

apb1963i'm sure that's how most of us learned... trying options and seeing what happens04:24
rmobenchainapb1963: will try it.  I do think the hard drive failure is possible too.  Am also trying to figure out whether I have an IDE or a SATA drive.  Hav a few friends who say they have both types laying around at home04:24

jj_bootboot05:05
duderguynew install, win 8 dual boot..hp 2000 machine...boot with uefi selection of hard disk boot sector05:05
konectdduderguy: The UEFI is the problem.05:06
konectdduderguy: Go into BIOS and change the UEFI to compatibility mode then re-install.05:07
SuperLagugh05:07
duderguy-_-05:07
SuperLagthat gives me the creeps05:07
SuperLagkonectd: I'm working on a Dell Latitude D630. Too old for EFI.05:08
konectdduderguy: If not compatibility then you will have a Legacy option, Legacy is what you want to look for.05:08
SuperLagkonectd: on Wednesday, I get a ThinkPad W530. I'm sure that thing will have EFI. I can't just pull the drive from this laptop and have it work in there, can I?05:08
SuperLagI dread the thought of having to reinstall and reconfigure everything on here... I have this thing just so.05:09
duderguywhen i first tried installing ubuntu it was via unetbootin flash drive05:09
duderguyit got as far as installing the OS option on my OS loader05:09
duderguy(cant remember the name of the OS app)05:10
duderguythen it wouldnt load05:10
duderguyso i reinstalled with a livedvd05:10
konectdduderguy: You will run into conflicts with the Win boot loader if you don't correct this. Also, you will run into problems with the recovery drive because of the dual boot.05:10
duderguynot sure what i did wrong with the opensuse install...probably assigning boot partitions correctly05:11
konectdSuperLag: YOu can try pulling the drive.. I would image it then - turn on legacy - then install the image05:11
konectdSuperLag:05:11
konectdAre you looking to dual-boot with Win?05:12
SuperLagme?05:12

SuperLagWhat drive am I imaging? the current Linux drive?05:13
konectdSuperLag: I think if you swapped drives because of the all the Lenovo stuff.. mainly drivers you may run into more problems then it would be worth,IMO.05:13
SuperLaglike what?05:13
konectdSuperLag: Yea, the linux machine that you don't want to re-install05:14
konectdSUperla05:14
SuperLagthe kernel is very modular, right?05:14

aden_Hi guys, just wondering how I can configure my ubuntu vm to automatically append a hostname onto a lookup, for example I want to run "ping server1" and get results for "server1.example.com"05:14
konectdProbably, wifi, eth0, video..05:14
SuperLagkonectd: Why would there be issues with a *very* modular kernel?05:15
konectdaden_: That should have been configured automatically when you built the VM.05:15
SuperLagkonectd: the kernel will just load the modules it needs for the devices it finds05:15
konectdSuperLag: What os are you running?05:15
SuperLagXubuntu 13.0405:15
konectdSuperLag: Then your fine.05:16
aden_konectd, is there a way to configure this after the fact?05:16
konectdSuperLag: I thought you had said you were on Fedora.. someone else..05:16
SuperLagNope. :)05:16
konectdaden_: Yea, via Terminal05:16
SuperLagkonectd: I've had enough of RPMs to last me a lifetime. :D05:16
konectdGoogle search your OS ver and how to change hostname file via VIM05:17
kaushalHi05:17
konectdaden_: or nano, or gedit, whatev's..05:17
Dr_willis!hostname05:17
ubottuUse hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hosts to include BOTH the old and new hostname and then change /etc/hostname to the new one. WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly.05:17
kaushalis there a way to restart ssh session on gnome-terminal whenever the network gets disconnected?05:17
konectdaden_: ubottu nailed it.05:17
Dr_williskaushal,  learn to use screen when you ssh into a system05:18
kaushalDr_willis: I am on my local system05:18
Dr_williskaushal,  and if ssh disconnects.. you ssh back in.. and resume the screen session05:18
SuperLagscreen++05:19
kaushalDr_willis: yeah i know it05:19
SuperLagor tmux even05:19
SuperLagbut they're both indispensible!!05:19
kaushalDr_willis: but i again have to reconnect using ssh user@IP05:19
aden_okay, I'm not looking to change the hostname of my ubuntu install though, I just want to set up a domain that will automatically be added to an incomplete hostname.. if that makes sense ^^'05:19
kaushalany auto ssh method once the network is up05:19
aden_is that still done via the hostname command?05:19
histokaushal: you could use screen05:21
Dr_willis;)05:21
Dr_willisputty ? ;)05:21

ubottududerguy: UEFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware, it is meant as a replacement for the BIOS. For information on how to set up and install Ubuntu and its derivatives on UEFI machines please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI05:25
kaushalhisto: apologies was away05:26
kaushalscreen with persistent connection?05:26
kaushalhisto: let me understand05:26
aden_konectd: sorry to be a pain, I just wanted to mention that I'm not looking to change the hostname of the vm I'm working on, but just how it does hostname lookups.. have I misunderstood, or is this indeed done via the hostname command?05:26
duderguyty for link05:26
kaushalI install screen on my laptop and then i am on screen ssh username@remoteIP05:26
kaushaland then the network goes down05:26
kaushaland then?05:27
histokaushal: on the server use screen. So you can reattach after network goes down or from another box05:27
Dr_willisyou will need screen running on the box you are sshed into.05:27
kaushalok05:28
konectdaden_: Are you talking about the nslookup command?05:28
histoaden_: You would need your own dns or use winbind service05:29
kaushalso on the laptop I always need to do ssh username@remoteIP?05:29
kaushalthere is no other way?05:29
Dr_willisits a 2 part setup kaushal ...05:29
Dr_willisssh to the server. run screen on the server.. that lets you resume the sesssion IF you get disconected.05:29
kaushalDr_willis: yeah i understood on the remote server I am already using screen05:29
betraydaden for most commands, if you are unsure, type 'man hostname' in a terminal05:29
konectdaden_: nslookup will give you everything on your local, even though you're in a vm because it's using the hardwares network adapter.05:30
histokaushal: yes you reconnect. You could set something up in your .bashrc to check if you aren't connected to connect but that would be troublesome. There are also keepalive settings on the client and server.  Are you using this for a tunnel or something?05:30
Dr_willisthen you setup whatever client to auto-reconnect (rereun ssh whatever) to get back to the screen session05:30
aden_konectd: I wanted this to be usable with any command, so I would run "ping server1" and get ping results for "server1.example.com"05:30
aden_konectd: or "host server1" and have the IP of "server1.example.com" returned05:31
histoaden_: so add the machiens to your /etc/hosts file is the easiest way05:32
histoaden_: just create entries ip.address.of.box   hostname05:32
aden_konectd: so pretty much setting a hostname to append onto incomplete hostname lookups05:32
aden_aah I see, there's no way to do this on the fly?05:32
histoaden_: I've told you create your own dns or use winbind05:33
konectdaden_: resolveip05:33
histoaden_: depends on yoru network and what type of boxes are there.05:33
konectdso.. resolveip localhost05:33
konectdaden_: or resolveip hostname, also you could use dig +short unix.hostname.com05:34
kaushalhisto: its fine05:36
kaushalthen05:37
konectdaden_: also try "host www.google.com" where google.com is your host.05:37
kaushalhisto: tmux will that solve?05:37
moses_do you guys know what other is under file permissions?05:37
histokaushal: same thing tmux vs screen05:37
histomoses_: world05:37
moses_histo: good05:38
kaushalhisto: so actually no escape to type ssh username@remoteserverIP on gnome-terminal?05:38
histomoses_: anyone that isn't in the user or group05:38
histokaushal: you could write a script like "remote" or something that does the command for you then you just type remote05:38

Dr_willisjony_easyrider,  if you need the latest.. but that wont get any support from this channel05:42
konectdGeorge: You're probably going to have to do a fresh install. I would fresh install using a flashdrve using Unetbootin, install 13.04 or 12.04 LTS.05:42

cristian_cHi06:28
cristian_cThere is a mysterious problem with my laptop. I mean, when I run the suspension, after the restore there are problems. The first of which is that the Chromium browser will no longer open (but it also does with Chrome) and if you launch it from the terminal, an error is returned06:28
histomoses_: this is a good read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions06:28
cristian_cAlso, when I try to logout or reboot the pc freezes, meaning that when I try to restart, the screen goes black and hangs there indefinitely (in the case of the log, it appears the shell with the messages, but it hangs too) and I have to brutally shut down the pc06:28
cristian_cI tried several solutions, from uswsusp to tuxonice, to create a special file in /etc/pm/config.d/, but these attempts have not been successful. I also checked the syslog, but also did not provide significant information about the origin of the problem06:29
cristian_cAny ideas?06:29
Dr_willisother then stop using suspend because its flakey.. ;) i imagine..06:29
histomoses_: also using the letters a+rwx would be less typing then ugo06:29
histomoses_: it says in the man page you can use octal06:29
raid_Any ideas about the current state of RAID support? Or am I just gonna have to wing it tomorrow morning and hope the process hasn't changed in 4-8 years? >_>06:30

bhaveshWhen I launch my fullscreen game in wine in ubuntu 13.04, the first time when it opens the unity top bar and unity sidebar are still there. But when I close it and open it again they disappear and I enjoy complete fullscreen07:36

A1Recon1Say I want to ssh tunnel to my computer at home... will i need to change any settings on my router at home??07:39
Dr_willisyou need to enable port forwarding from the router to the proper pc07:40
Dr_willisand you may want to change the default ssh port to be used also. or forward from somthing other then the ssh port to the pc.07:40
wildwindA1Recon1: you need to forward ssh port (22) to your machine07:40
A1Recon1wildwind: OK07:41
Dr_willisive seen where people ssh into the router (frm outside) on port 3322 for example.. then the router forwards 3322 to 22 on the iternal pc.07:41
Dr_willisyou could set up othe rules to let you get to other pcs on the lan07:41

m11it is showing me error  Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock,09:50
m11but ps command shows only 2 processes running  ie, ps and bash09:50

shomonhi, how can I install java 7 on ubuntu?10:11
hurdvm!java | shomon10:12
ubottushomon: To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software  Development Kit" (SDK).  Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations.10:12

SarcasticGoatsHey everyone, I tried installing AMD Drivers for my Radeon 5450, but now when I turn the computer on my acer monitor shows "Input Not Supported". Running Ubuntu 12.10 64-bit10:16
jony_easyriderI need a free font which has symbols10:17
ezra-sSarcasticGoats, input? are you sure it is related? graphic cards are "output" devices, not input ones.10:17
SarcasticGoatsIt worked before I installed the fglrx proprietary drivers10:17
SarcasticGoatsI've had to go through the same procedure a lot of times with the same result.10:17
SarcasticGoatsI found this guide to change a line in the GRUB menu but that didn't work10:18
ezra-sSarcasticGoats, If I were you I'd check /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0.log10:18
ezra-sprobably the last one will give you clues about what's failing and why10:19
SarcasticGoatsI can't get into the desktop though10:19
ezra-sSarcasticGoats, from the terminal, you can access the terminal, can't you?10:19
floogySarcasticGoats, you are in the console now?10:19

ezra-sohh10:20
SarcasticGoatsI had windows originally, I freed some space for a partition10:20
SarcasticGoatsand successfully installed ubuntu on it10:20
floogyIf you try to load ubuntu, what happens?10:21
SarcasticGoatshowever I'm trying to install the AMD Drivers and it never seems to work, it just goes to input not supported - HOWEVER I can hear the logon sound10:21
SarcasticGoatsFloogy, I go to grub, go onto Ubuntu. Purple grub screen for a few seconds and then 'Input Not Supported'10:21
hurdvm!nomodeset | SarcasticGoats10:22
ubottuSarcasticGoats: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter10:22
floogySarcasticGoats, Please try ALT+CTRL+F2 like ezra-s suggested10:22
ezra-sSarcasticGoats, hearing the logon sound but not seeing anything, sounds like monitor can't display resolution10:22
SarcasticGoatsI was thinking that too ezra10:22
floogyOk, I guess that won't switch you into a console logon that the screen will display.10:23
SarcasticGoatsThere's a line in GRUB which is like GFXMODE 640X480 and a guide told me to remove the #10:23
ezra-sSarcasticGoats, your best bet is checking the log under console10:23
ezra-sSarcasticGoats, but thats for console, it has nothing to do with Xorg drivers and you want to go into desktop10:23
SarcasticGoatsShould I try the nomodeset thing then?10:23
ezra-sunless there is some framebuffer driver that is conflicting with the xorg driver10:24
floogySarcasticGoats, try the kernel boot parameter nomodeset on the edited grub kernel line like hurdvm suggested10:24
hurdvmSarcasticGoats: it is worth a go10:24
SarcasticGoatsOK10:24

hurdvmSarcasticGoats: mdfe had a good suggestion: manually specifying a resolution in xorg.conf11:27
=== harry is now known as Guest46089
SarcasticGoatsHow do i get to the xorg.conf file if I can't get into the desktop?11:28
hurdvmSarcasticGoats: you can use a livecd11:28
SarcasticGoatsok11:28
mdfeSarcasticGoats: You hold shift as it boots up, and select recovery, then boot to shell11:28
mdfeSarcasticGoats: When does the monitor black out? Do you see the start of boot?11:28
SarcasticGoatsThe monitor shows grub11:29
SarcasticGoatsI select ubuntu11:29
SarcasticGoatsa few seconds of grub purple screen then input not supported11:29
mdfeSarcasticGoats: Then the problem is almost certainly "nomodeset"11:29
SarcasticGoatsI've already put in nomodeset11:29
SarcasticGoatsWhich do you recommend I do? The root shell method or live cd?11:29
mdfeOK, you're goign to have to fiddle with xorg then ... do it whichever way you are most comfortable with11:30
mdfeBut i would double check you have nomodeset as it's very common and has exactly the symptoms you describe11:30
SarcasticGoatsI'll use live cd11:30
histoSarcasticGoats: how did you enable the nomodeset kernel parameter11:31
SarcasticGoatshisto, I used live cd to edit the grub.conf file11:31
histoSarcasticGoats: did you sudo update-grub after editing?11:32
SarcasticGoatsthat didnt work11:32
SarcasticGoatsI used something else I think11:32
histoSarcasticGoats: well then you aren't using nomodeset11:32
SarcasticGoatsIf I go to GRUB, press e, the 'nomodeset' thing is there11:32
histoSarcasticGoats: press e on the grub screen to edit the selected kernel line and just append it manually11:32
hurdvmSarcasticGoats: you don't need a livecd to do nomodeset11:32
mdfeuhh yea you have to edit /etc/default/grub and then run `sudo update-grub`11:32
SarcasticGoatsmdfe, sudo update-grub came with an error11:33
hurdvmmdfe: not to test it out, just do what histo just said then when you're booted you can edit the file11:33
SarcasticGoatsand there is no xorg.conf file11:33
SarcasticGoatsit;s just plain11:33
hurdvmSarcasticGoats: xorg.conf is used by default, but if you make one it will be obeyed11:34
histoSarcasticGoats: You don't typically need an xorg.conf11:34
hurdvm!xorgconf | SarcasticGoats11:34
ubottuSarcasticGoats: The /etc/X11/xorg.conf file is deprecated, but sometimes may still be needed to pass values to specific drivers.

Phoenixxlkloes check your block size13:11
cfhowlettchvx, better asked in #ubuntu-offtopic as this channel is for actually solving issues.   Thanks.13:11
Phoenixxlkloes if it's 512 , which it probably will be13:11
kloesI mean that if you partition af drive - all new drives are af the partition needs to be alligned or you will get performance issues13:11
Phoenixxlkloes when your partitioner asks a starting block select 409613:12
chvxcfhowlett: what you mean?13:12
Phoenixxlkloes if yourr block size is 4096 , selkect 512 as starting block13:12
andre7hello all13:12
Phoenixxlkloes thats all there's to it13:13
Phoenixxlklos as long as you don't start in the middle of a block you're fine13:13
=== Matthew is now known as Guest94565
=== Guest94565 is now known as AndroidOS
Phoenixxlkloes let's say you have 4 k physicsl blocks , and your drive , for compatibility reasons , like most of the time , gives the OS the illusion you have 512 byte blocks , you could potentially start your partition in the middle of one of those 4K blocks , that would be bad13:14
kloesI do not think it is possible to get the real block size because the hard drive reports what it emulates for compatability reasons.Only AF mark on its label tell that it is a new 4k drive13:15
Phoenixxlhence , if you leave a 4Kx512 byte gap up front you're covered for all possibilities13:15
Phoenixxlnot true13:15
cfhowlettchvx, you asked opinions on bleeding edge vs non-bleeding edge issues.  good question ... but this channel is where work is done to get systems up, working and fixed.  I requested you take your question to offtopic because that's a great place for such debate.13:15

hsguys any help , why compiz-plugins-extra , is undownloadable / package broken14:48
samgabbayHi guys Sam G here from the qateam to help :014:48
ThePendulumqateam?14:48
floogyOk, that's outdated, but that shouldn't be the culprit, and if you want to use it with a OS that doesn't support v5000 then you'll be in trouble.14:48
ThePendulum'lo Sam :P14:49
samgabbayThependulum: haha i love my indroduction :)14:49
User404When I go to the drive via nautilus it gives me the permission error (as normal user). How do I change it so normal user has access to the drive?14:49
ThePendulumfloogy: At this point, I just want to have access to my data, so I can back-up it ASAP14:49
i3luefirei have borked my network configuration. now i cant access the internet and only some of my webservers are able to serv on my internal network14:49
PhoenixxlthePendulum have you done a zfs mopuntall ?14:49
SarcasticGoatsGuys I'm back and I just needed help with this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution#Setting_resolution_changes_in_xorg.conf14:50
ThePendulumPhoenixxl: I did zfs mount -a if that's what you mean14:50
hswhy compiz-plugins-extra , is undownloadable / package broken14:50
floogyThePendulum, I had to compile zfs on linux from git to import it from lucid or from another precise installation.14:50
floogyTo achieve that I must purge the PPA14:50
samgabbayil be right back :)14:50
floogypackets14:50
ThePendulumfloogy: Did you get a similar issue? Since I do see my zpool14:51
Phoenixxlok the ppa should have included a specific version of mountall for ezfs14:51
Phoenixxlzfs14:51
=== norma is now known as Guest17376
Phoenixxlif that got installed , be sure that it did , reboot14:51
floogyNo, I got a FAULTY pool, because it didn't find the partitions the right way, due to a bug in the PPA14:51
ThePendulumHeh? How do I install a specific version of mountall?14:51
Phoenixxl mountall 2.48build1-zfs2Darik Horn (2013-04-01)14:51
Phoenixxlit should have installed itself with zfs14:52
floogyIt showed the device files /dev/sdX as corrupt. But in fact they were sane.14:52
Phoenixxlthen you should reboot14:52
ThePendulumPhoenixxl: Mountall is installed, it seems14:52
ThePendulumNot sure how to use it14:52
ThePendulumAnd not sure what 'specific version' is installed14:52
Phoenixxlmountall , yes , but zfs install should overwrite it with a zfs compatible one , thats whty you need a reboot14:53
floogyThePendulum dpkg -l *mountall*14:53
ThePendulumPhoenixxl: I installed zfs yesterday14:53
ThePendulumPhoenixxl: And I just booted it, so it has rebooted meanwhile14:53
samgabbayBACK14:53
Phoenixxlok14:53
floogyYes, but the bugfix isn't yet in the PPA14:53
Phoenixxljust going over the things that could be it14:53
ThePendulumMountall is version 2.36.414:53
samgabbaySAM IN tha house to assist ya :P14:53
samgabbaywith basic knowledge rofl14:54
hswhy compiz-plugins-extra , is undownloadable / package broken14:54
ThePendulumsamgabbay: You need an echo on your voice and a soundboard, mate14:54
samgabbay@thependulum say what?14:54
ThePendulumfloogy: How do I retrieve the bugfix?14:54
ThePendulumsamgabbay: u wot m8?14:54
floogyThough I'm not sure if you're affected by this bug, because you're issue is different from mine.14:54
samgabbaywut?\14:54
i3luefireim running 12.04.2 if anyone can help me get my network interface set back up. this new resolvconf stuff is killing me. i just want to setup an static ip to make it easey to access my webuis14:54

ThePendulumfloogy: Well, it seems similar, since I can in fact mount everything yet I can't use it14:55
Phoenixxllets go again from the top14:55
samgabbaypendulum man i dunno what ursaying but i bet its gangsta14:55
floogyThePendulum, you have to compile zfs from git. But I'm not sure if the bugfix is related to your problem.14:55
hsi3luefire , use sudo ifup14:55
Phoenixxlin your root you have a /Tankname folder yes ?14:55
ThePendulumsamgabbay: It's more Brittish than gangsta14:55
floogyThePendulum, does the pool comes from freeNAS?14:56
samgabbay@thependulum still gansta :P14:56
ThePendulumfloogy: Yes14:56
ThePendulumPhoenixxl: I can't find anything like that in my root14:56
przemekhello how to use traceroute for the point up until where it cuts14:56
przemek?14:56
PhoenixxlThats not normal14:56
floogyHm, that might be a problem because of the different geom partition scheme, but I'm not sure.14:56
samgabbayrofl14:56
ThePendulumPhoenixxl: Is this literally called Tankname or is it my pool name?14:56
Phoenixxlno14:56
samgabbayanyone need help with basic things il be glad to help :)14:57
Phoenixxlit's the name of your tank14:57
ThePendulumIs there a difference between a pool and a tank?14:57
ThePendulumI don't know what my thank's called14:57
Phoenixxlno14:57
Phoenixxlsorry14:57
ThePendulumBut it isn't there either way14:57
samgabbay@thependulum not really14:57
Phoenixxli call my polols tanks14:57
twig11I am unable to ssh into my ubuntu 12.04 box, even with its firewall turned off. I have verified that ssh server is running and ssh localhost works, but any attempt to login from another machine on my home network times out. Someone earlier asked me to run sudo iptables -L and the output of that is at http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/5707001/ . I'm in beyond my very limited knowledge here. Is there anything in that output that signals a problem?14:57
samgabbaythere the same  but pool is bigger14:57
Phoenixxlsorry for the confusion14:57
ThePendulumPhoenixxl: AH, okay, hehe14:57
ThePendulumWell it isn't there either way :P14:57
BluesKaji3luefire, set your staitic Ip in the /etc/network/interfaces file and you dns nameservers (if any) in the  /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base file , along with your domain and search gateways14:57
Phoenixxl /poolname14:57
ThePendulumYes, I understand14:57
samgabbay@twig11 did you port forward? is your server on?14:57
floogyThePendulum, I suggest to ask further in #zfsonlinux14:58
ThePendulumThe pool's called 'shared' iirc and it's not there14:58
ThePendulumfloogy: I guess. Bit of a dead channel.14:58
Phoenixxlok .. before that thne.. zpool status gives : ok ?14:58
hsi3luefire , use sudo ifup14:58
floogyThePendulum, they helped me rather well in that issue.14:58
hswhy compiz-plugins-extra , is undownloadable / package broken14:58
twig11samgabbay: the server is on. I haven't done any port forwarding that I can remember.14:58
Phoenixxlif your pool is there , with zpool status ,14:59
Phoenixxlthe second thing to do is zpool list14:59
samgabbay@twig11 open your ports check what ports are you using ssh in14:59
ThePendulumfloogy: I do not doubt that14:59
Phoenixxlthe first line14:59

ThePendulumsamgabbay: I type a certain amount of letters of their usernames and then hit [tab] to have my client complete it.15:00
Phoenixxlthependulum ??15:00
ThePendulumsamgabbay: For you, I need to type 'samg'- because there are multiple users starting with sam in here15:00
samgabbay@twig11 maybe on the sspecific network but are you trying to acess it within the same network?15:00
ThePendulumPhoenixxl: Hm? That was all directed to sam15:00
Phoenixxlthependulum is that the first nile under name after doing a zfs list ?15:00
twig11samgabbay: yes I am.15:00
Phoenixxlline15:00

hswhy compiz-plugins-extra , is undownloadable / package broken15:02
ThePendulumYes, yes, but Phoenixxl can't click links :P15:02
samgabbay@twig11 maybe the firewalls on the other computers arent letting it? im not too sure im trying to evaluate the issue i might have to elevate you to askubuntu.com or ubuntuforums.org15:02
Phoenixxlsorry15:02
Phoenixxlso /mnt/stor shoulld be EMPTY15:03
Phoenixxli hope you get that15:03
samgabbay@twig11 try turning off all the firewalls on your network15:03
samgabbayincluding your router firewall15:03
ThePendulumPhoenixxl: Well, it isn't now, but it is when the pool isn't mounted15:03
samgabbaythen try again15:03

ThePendulumPhoenixxl: It's /mnt/shared in the pool15:06
ThePendulum/mnt/stor on my Ubuntu system15:06
sasukeits not working15:06
Phoenixxlwell under NAME you have the line you pasted , then a line for each store you created15:07
Phoenixxleach zvol gets a line too15:07
samgabbay@sasuke are you doing it from pcs from the same network or outside your network15:07
samgabbayOutside: one from home one from ur office15:07
ThePendulumPhoenixxl: Strange, is there anything I should add to "sudo zfs list" to get those?15:07
sasukeits the same network15:07
Phoenixxlin my case for example : Tank_AR/storage1              54.8G  6.49T  54.8G  /storage115:07
Phoenixxlnothing15:07
Phoenixxlzfs list should list them15:08
BluesKaji3luefire,  are you using network manager , if so it's settings will overwrite most networking files especially resolv.conf15:08
samgabbay@sasuke did you turn off your firewalls?15:08
ThePendulumPhoenixxl: What I sent is all it lists, and I'm not sure what else should be there, it's the only pool15:08
sasukessh user@hostname "ot=sudo virsh list --all  | awk '{print $2}' | tail -2 ;echo "sudo virsh dominfo $ot"15:08
floogyThePendulum, Phoenixxl did you try sudo zfs get all15:08
ThePendulumfloogy: Now that's a list :P15:08

Phoenixxlonce you ahve a zpool , you should create a volume afterwards to put your files in..15:16
Phoenixxli have no idea how you managed to create a pool , then put the files in the raw data so to speak15:17
Phoenixxlyou shouldnt't even have reduncancy there15:17

rmobenchainI'd love to partition around any bad sectors (if that is indeed the issue) and try installing.  can that be done?15:39
floogyPhoenixx1, ThePendulum  Ok, zpool status gave no known data errors. So he should be fine with importing the pool under freeNAS. But he could also try to compile from git and try again to import the pool under linux.15:40

genii-aroundHm15:41
hurdvmmakara: better is very subjective15:41
i3luefireBluesKaj, i had already tried that before. but it didnt work. so i tried it again a little slower and more deliberate and same result15:41
ThePendulummakara: Just try a bunch and decide for yourself :P Finding some is a matter of Googling 'ubuntu word processor' I'd say15:41
makarahurdvm, well i don't mind using both options. Its just that LibreOffice is pretty weak on styles.15:41

ThePendulumThere's something about Ubuntu that makes me want to grab a beer16:45
twig11I can't ssh into my ubuntu 12.04 box, even with all firewalls turned off. The connection simply times out. I've verified that the server is running and ssh localhost works. Other machines can ssh each other. I have the output of iptables -L at http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/5707001/ . Is there anything useful there? What should I check next?16:47
MonkeyDusttwig11  is that a server? if yes: there's also #ubuntu-server16:48
BluesKaji3luefire, glad to hear it :)16:51
jhutchins_wktwig11: What did you use to create your iptables rules?16:52
jhutchins_wktwig11: Have you tried ssh -vvv <host>?16:52
twig11MonkeyDust, no, it's a workstation.16:55
rypervenchetwig11: Port 22 may be blocked at your work. Try to run "telnet workstationIP 22"16:55
WeThePeopleguake wont start on startup 12.04.2 x6416:56
WeThePeoplein gnome16:56
twig11jhutchins_wk, pardon my lack of knowledge; are those rules adjusted by ufw? Because I've set up a rule or two with a firewall gui, but I've never directly done anything with iptables.16:56
rypervenchetwig11: That will just list the firewall rules that you have, so it will help us determine if you are blocking requests to port 22 or not.16:57
twig11rypervenche, I'm trying to connect from one machine to another within my home network.16:57
rypervenchetwig11: Ok, well run "telnet workstationIP 22" and tell us what happens. Does it do nothing or does it print out something with "openSSH" in it?16:58
rypervenchetwig11: Obviously use your work station's IP address instead of "workstationIP"16:58
twig11jhutchins_wk, would I run that from the problem machine or from another machine on the network?16:58
twig11rypervenche, would that work from the workstation in question?16:59
rypervenchetwig11: Do it from a work station that you want to use as your client, so the one you want to SSH from.16:59
twig11rypervenche, ok17:00
rypervenchetwig11: So the IP should be the one you want to SSH into.17:00
twig11rypervenche, it looks like it's just timing out again.17:01
rypervenchetwig11: Then it looks like you are not allowing traffic from port 22. Have you added a rule in gufw for port 22 incoming (TCP)?17:01
fkmVannak itt magyarok?17:02
jhutchins_wktwig11: Use that command from the machine that's trying to reach the host, it will give you information on where it's failing.17:02
jhutchins_wktwig11: Some setups deny root login by default.  Some may require a particular type of key.17:02
twig11rypervenche, the results are the same when the firewall is off.17:02
albru123__Hello there, I've got a little issue with Ubuntu 12.0.4. I want to have GNOME-panel as GUI instead of GNOME-shell. I've installed gnome-panel and started but the shell left panel is still there, how to kill that gnome-shell? Thanks for any help!17:02
jhutchins_wktwig11: Some are particular about the permissions on files.17:02
rypervenchetwig11: On your server run "sudo lsof -i:22" what does it say?17:03

twig11I was having trouble ssh-ing to my machine from others in the local network and got some help in here awhile ago. I thought I had it fixed, someone gave me a command to use to flush the firewall and I could ssh in as long as the firewall was off. After turning the firewall on at one point, it suddenly started blocking all traffic in and out for no discernible reason. So I apt-get purged ufw and gufw, rebooted and reinstalled both. I have NOT started ufw yet19:37

PhoenixxlThePendulum, you can still give it a go you know , you can make a volume on your pool , and move yopur files there. your volume will then easily be mountable on your linux system19:54

PhoenixxlThePendulum, remember for the future when working with zfs , once you make a pool , you have to make volumes as well19:54

doomlord__before installing that card in my 'main' pc21:00
Awwmatanya, its stock ubuntu 13.04 Not sure about the login manager21:00
matanyaAww: it is lightdm21:00
TheUsDwildwind: instead I was told to use Zentyal, what do you think?21:00
beanTheUsD, yeah, i don't recommend it, in general you're going to want to use Samba or NFS to connect the two.21:00
matanyaAww: you can check using ps -ef |grep lightdm21:01
doomlord__its got ubuntu 12.10 on it; it doesn't seem to want to upgrade itself. also under 12.10 Unity (or other compositing WMs) doesn't work with this graphics card21:01
beandoomlord__, ah, okay... And it has USB boot enabled int he bios?21:01
doomlord__yes; just been through bios settings and manual override (press f12...)21:01
Awwmatanya, I'm sure it is. Thats what I restart to get the GUI to work again21:01

Multbrelchhi all -- Q: What is the latest version of compiz for Ubuntu 12.04 64Bit?21:23
w30doomlord__, Unity is a work in progress to break compiz on every upgrade.21:23
MonkeyDust!info compiz precise21:23
ubottucompiz (source: compiz): OpenGL window and compositing manager. In component main, is optional. Version 1:0.9.7.12-0ubuntu1 (precise), package size 3 kB, installed size 60 kB21:23
MultbrelchMonkeyDust, I mean officially21:24
TheUsDbecause I dont have the $ with what I need, I am doing this way. this is my overall goal.21:24
Phoenixxlyou can always use a ppa21:24
doomlord__heh. in fairness, i like xfwm aswell - but i *really* like global menu, which keeps me wanting unity.21:24
Multbrelch0.9.7.12?21:24
MonkeyDustMultbrelch  look what the info says21:24
Multbrelchthx ubottu21:24
jostHi! I will have multiple internet connections soon. One of them is fast but has limited traffic available, the other one is slow but has unlimited traffic available. To preserve the traffic available at connection 1, I'd like to forbid certain applications (steam, jDownloader) to use  this connections, and only use the second one. Other applications (like browsers) should use the first connection, because it is faster. How would I conf21:24
jostigure something like that?21:24
doomlord__i just tried linux mint on another PC, with xfwm setup - its nice... and i've got xfwm on ubuntu 12.04 , again useable but some mismatched themes21:25
MultbrelchMonkeyDust, just done but I wanted to know the official one. I had a ppa version which I replaced. I wanted to be sure21:25
MultbrelchThx, MonkeyDust21:25
wildwinddoomlord__: unity may check driver for some specific feature it uses for effects, and decide on that. other programs may not need it21:25
MonkeyDustMultbrelch  glad to help21:25
doomlord__i could stick with a crazy setup, 2 pcs side by side, one ssh-ing into the others filesystem, synergy keyboard/mouse sharing..21:25
MultbrelchSo, 0.9.7.12 is the latest official one ...21:26
MonkeyDustMultbrelch  supported on Precise, yes21:26

MultbrelchSo, I have done my work correctly :)21:26
doomlord__my "main" pc has a graphics card with only 2 monitor outputs (geforce 220); i'm after  4 monitors (and ability to use a screen further away, i.e. infront of treadmill)21:26
TheUsDI want to just make this linix box a DAS server for my windows machine, however I cant afford the SAS cards I need. So instead I installed linux and going to make it my mail server and also use it to store data.

surfdaemondoomlord__: I've considered getting a stationary bike to put in front of the desk, If I can get a proper stand for keyboard and mouse it should be great.21:27
gordonjcpTheUsD: sounds like you want samba then21:27
TheUsDThat way I can point the FTP server to use the linux drives as more storage space.21:27
Phoenixxljost, what I did was , I installed  virtual machine21:28
TheUsDIs Samba a GUI interface or strickly terminal?21:28
Phoenixxland used that virtual machine to connect to the second internet connection21:28
doomlord__w30, of those , xfwm is my favourite - i like the few extra features it has eg mouse-wheel desktop sharing, and a 'stick window' icon.21:28
shadykhanmy control enter isnt auto completing on firefox or chromium any idea?21:28
surfdaemonTheUsD: iirc there is a gui manager should you prefer that.21:28
Phoenixxljost, then on that virtual computer , I used KVM on ubuntu at first ,21:28
w30doomlord__, I love ubuntu though, it basically is the best in my book21:28

wildwindTheUsD: including Samba, iSCSI, bit-torrent ant other ways to share disks and files21:36
TheUsDwildwind: can the linux FTP compare to something like this www.wftpserver.com/comparison.htm21:36
Phoenixxljost, strat chrome with --proxy-server="socks5://Virtualmachine:1080" --proxy-bypass-list="192.168.1.0/24"21:36
Phoenixxljost, if your local subnet is 192.168.121:36
Phoenixxljost, I have the same setup for VPN's also , a virtual compuer per country21:37
Phoenixxljost, they use very little cpu time ? I use ubuntu server + shorewall.. they manage on 200 meg of mem21:37
TheUsDwildwind: you should try the demo they have. Its a very simple but powerful program.21:37
jostPhoenixxl: actually, just running the apps in a VM and allow the VM to only use the correct connection will suffice for now :-)21:38
Phoenixxljost, for socks I use dante , and also map a few ports using SOCAT21:38
Phoenixxljost, when you eventually get to that , you never know , youll have somewhere to start looking21:39

PyGuyHey guys. Can someone help me get my Sound Blaster ZX to work in Ubuntu 12.04?22:27
Phoenixxlmidnightmagic, have you considered installing IET iscsitarget , then share your storage on that .22:28
Phoenixxlmidnightmagic, it doesn't use a virtual controller22:28
midnightmagicPhoenixxl: I've got a raw lvm volume group that the installer (at least) managed to successfully install to.22:28

wildwindrmobenchain: ok, you should unmount before any other action on it22:35
matanyaThete: you can use nautilus using : CTRL + l and type sftp://connectionadress22:35
TheteDoes the PPC version of Ubuntu use yaboot?22:35
PyGuyThird party? I'm using the raring kernel22:35
rmobenchainwildwind: tried to unmount, and got 'umount: /cdrom: device is busy.         (In some cases useful info about processes that use          the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1))'22:35

robottinosinoi have worked through a tutorial that uses wpa supplicant but broke things and just had to reinstall22:38
wildwindlooks like you're running gparted not from root22:38
robottinosinonow i am back to a fresh install, with wifi working using network-manager22:39
ActionParsniprobottinosino: why not use network manager?22:39
matanyarobottinosino: if you remove nm and brake things you won't have network to fix it22:39
evilytwistedActionParsnip:  would you know of a software that acts like a autotune or voice changer in real time?  for recording softwares like skype or such?22:39
robottinosinobecause nm sometimes fails to reconnect if the network gets flaky22:40

PyGuyHow to I go back? I deleted the kernel in Synaptic22:41
ActionParsnippyguy: try rebooting.22:41
matanyarobottinosino: better fix the issue, than remove the software22:41
PyGuyActionParsnip: I did22:41
ActionParsnippyguy: also disable the onboard soundcard22:41
ActionParsnippyguy: im asuming you dont use it22:41
wildwindrmobenchain: that looks like your hdd22:41
wildwindrmobenchain: if it all is unallocated then your 'erase' mission is complete22:42
ActionParsnippyguy: why are you adding kernels which are not intended for your release22:42
rmobenchainwildwind: I have /dev/sda showing 372.61 GiB and /dev/sdf showing 1.80 GiB22:42
PyGuyActionParsnip: Because the default kernel doesn't detect my sound card22:43
wildwindrmobenchain: sdf is your liveusb i suppose22:43
ActionParsnippyguy: the only kernels supported for Precise are the ones from the repos which are made for that release22:43
rmobenchainwildwind: and sda is my root? (isn't that what it's called?"22:43
rmobenchainerrr boot I mean22:44
rmobenchainor something22:44
matanyaPyGuy: better fixing your kernel than using the wrong one22:44
PhoenixxlpyGuy which version of precise ?22:44
wildwindrmobenchain: it's your hard disk22:44
PyGuyPhoenixxl: 12.04.222:45
rmobenchainand you think sdf is my usb?22:45
PhoenixxlPyGuy, if you install with 12.04.1 you get a 3.2 kernel if you install with 12.04.2 you get a 3.522:45
PhoenixxlPyGuy, it's been the silliest idea ubuntu team ever had imo ..22:45
ActionParsnippyguy: install Raring and you will have the 3.8 kernel by default22:45
wildwindrmobenchain: there will be 'root' after installing something22:45
PhoenixxlPyGuy, since you keep upgrading in the same direction , you don't go from 3.2 to 3.522:45
ActionParsnipphoenixxl: you can install the backport and get 3.522:46
rmobenchainwildwind:  so I shoudl be good with my install now eh?  I'm hoping *crossing fingers*22:46

PhoenixxlActionParsnip, the kernel working is not the argument22:47
ActionParsnipphoenixxl: whats new in the 3.5 kernel (without searching the web)?22:47
PhoenixxlActionParsnip, let's not simplify it to that22:47
PhoenixxlActionParsnip, 3.5 is a "dead end" kernel22:48
ActionParsnipphoenixxl: thats what it is though. if you dont benefit (or even know) what is different in the 3.5 kerenl, why or how is it 'meh'?22:48
PhoenixxlActionParsnip, imo , and taking quite a few things into consideration , people shouldn't be suckered into a 3.5 kernel22:49
PhoenixxlActionParsnip, it's not the end of the world , indeed .. But when I want stable , I prefer stable "thats being worked on"22:50

xirreHow do you check the current CPU Usage that a process is using by using its PID? It needs to be outputted for use by a third party program. (Like how I would get the PID by doing echo "$!" > '/home/directory/file.txt' after a command is initially ran.)23:50

xirreI'm getting somewhere. It displays the CPU Usage, the %mem and %cmd can be of use in the future for me so no need to apologize. :) -- But how do I store the CPU% in a file..? I tried echoing it but that doesn't seem to work.23:55

(Like how I would get the PID by doing echo "$!" > '/home/directory/file.txt' after a command is initially ran.) -- I was told earlier to use ps -p <pid> -o %cpu  but i'd like to store this information momentarily so a third party can retrieve it and delete it after it has received it.23:57
