| n0yd | Linux does uefi just fine, but I found windows can really screw up the whole ordeal | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| n0yd | I just went thru the same issue with a nice hp laptop | 00:00 |
| whizndr- | sad really | 00:00 |
| rypervenche | The best solution is to just get rid of Windows all together :) | 00:00 |
| whizndr- | this vaio is pretty nice for $600 lol | 00:00 |
| sianhulo | the best option now is to build a pc | 00:01 |
| n0yd | I got a core-17 (3rd gen) 17 inch laptop, with 12GB of ram, for 650 bucks. i had to jump on it | 00:01 |
| whizndr- | i wish i could get rid of windows lol | 00:01 |
| sianhulo | you don't pay for windows, get a better case and save some extra money | 00:01 |
| Quix86 | 17" is too big for me | 00:01 |
| Quix86 | my 15" thinkpad feels huge | 00:01 |
| rypervenche | I'm just fine on my 14.1" :) | 00:01 |
| Quix86 | I love my X41, 12" | 00:01 |
| n0yd | Also can have two internal hard drives. It came with 1TB but i added a 256SSD by samsung | 00:01 |
| whizndr- | itunes plus adobe keeps me on windows some of the time | 00:02 |
| n0yd | Quix86, I use my laptop as a desktop most of the time | 00:02 |
| n0yd | Its also a second monitor | 00:02 |
| sianhulo | I don't really find SSD useful | 00:02 |
| n0yd | wtf? | 00:02 |
| Quix86 | I used to do that, I've got a mITX desktop now | 00:02 |
| n0yd | The speed increase is beyond noticable | 00:02 |
| sianhulo | it gets messed up pretty fast compared with HDD when it's almost full | 00:02 |
| n0yd | lol | 00:02 |
| sianhulo | I won't buy a storage to get messed up for using it | 00:02 |
| n0yd | Why would you use a SSD for normal data storage? it would cost a mint | 00:03 |
| Quix86 | sianhulo, look into TRIM | 00:03 |
| sianhulo | the only use it could have is for the boot partition, and it's too expensive to use it just for that | 00:03 |
| Quix86 | and yes stop keeping things like videos and music on it | 00:03 |
| n0yd | I have 4 SSD's, 2 in 2 laptops, and 2 in my desktop | 00:03 |
| n0yd | They are used EVERY day | 00:03 |
| n0yd | No problems | 00:03 |
| n0yd | Why just the boot partition? Use it for the whole OS | 00:03 |
| n0yd | But putting your mp3s and video on is just pointless | 00:03 |
| sianhulo | n0yd, they obviously won't get famaged in a year or 2, whow ould buy them otherwise?they still last less than hdd | 00:03 |
| n0yd | And I have way to much video and music to fit on a single ssd anyway | 00:04 |
| n0yd | sianhulo, They are stupidly worth it for the speed increase | 00:04 |
| n0yd | You only need like 64GB to run a whole OS | 00:04 |
| Quix86 | sianhulo, the point of an SSD is to keep files that the system accesses on a regular basis, like the OS and games | 00:04 |
| sianhulo | not in my country | 00:04 |
| n0yd | Or even windows and linux | 00:04 |
| n0yd | sianhulo, a 256GB here ranges from 75 cents to a dollar a GB | 00:04 |
| n0yd | sometimes a little more. Depends on where you are buying, and what brand/model | 00:05 |
| betrayd | but yeah it is becoming the norm everywhere else | 00:05 |
| sianhulo | n0yd, *there* | 00:05 |
| n0yd | I generally stick with the Samsung 830s and 840s | 00:05 |
| Quix86 | sianhulo, what country do you live in again? | 00:05 |
| sianhulo | venezuela | 00:05 |
| Quix86 | thank you for giving money to WILLIAMS formula 1 team | 00:05 |
| Quix86 | otherwise yes, living in a communist country will generally make things expensive | 00:06 |
| whizndr- | hmmmmm off to backup music | 00:06 |
| sianhulo | I don't even know where to start when talking about formula 1 | 00:06 |
| Quix86 | You sent us a driver that hits people and gives money to a zombie, that's all you need to know | 00:07 |
| sianhulo | is you critic so much the rich and the empire, why do you spend so much in formula 1?even more, why do you waste money in someone who keeps crashing? | 00:07 |
| sianhulo | that's beyond me | 00:07 |
| ClientAlive | Oh yuck! I'm on the phone w/ microsoft licensing asking about getting a system builder subscription/partner subscription | 00:07 |
| Quix86 | Ask frankie W, I don't know | 00:07 |
| ClientAlive | oh gag me! | 00:07 |
| n0yd | ClientAlive, calling India are we? | 00:08 |
| n0yd | ;) | 00:08 |
| * rypervenche gags ClientAlive. | 00:08 | |
| sianhulo | the only good that has done is to prove the cars security | 00:08 |
| ClientAlive | pretty much man --lol | 00:08 |
| Iceman_B | ClientAlive: ask them if they want to talk to the Windows Technical Support people | 00:08 |
| ClientAlive | no doubt | 00:08 |
| Anxi80 | Microsoft's partner program is the pits | 00:08 |
| Quix86 | He did win a race though, somehow | 00:08 |
| Anxi80 | Maldozor doesn't belong in F1 | 00:08 |
| Quix86 | but yes he keeps giving money to williams, and williams hates any driver that doesn't give them tons of money | 00:09 |
| ClientAlive | it's no like I want anything to do with helping microsoft, but that's how I make my $ | 00:09 |
| sianhulo | Quix86, he once did a demonstration here, it was some kind of celebration Not even a race | 00:09 |
| ClientAlive | what can you do? | 00:09 |
| sianhulo | Quix86, guess what?he crashed | 00:09 |
| === witquicked_ is now known as witquicked | ||
| n0yd | ClientAlive, tell them you went to install Exchange sever, but it said "Requirements: Windows NT or better" so you thought Linux would be more than adequate, but it wont run, so you want a refund | 00:09 |
| ClientAlive | I try to direct every customer I get to linux, to ubuntu specifically - but they won't listen | 00:10 |
| n0yd | I used to love messing with the microsoft support people. See how long I could keep them on the line | 00:10 |
| n0yd | ClientAlive, I understand it, Im in a similar field | 00:10 |
| ClientAlive | yup | 00:10 |
| === alchemy is now known as Guest9780 | ||
| n0yd | ClientAlive, I even give them money for a TechNet Subscription, so I can access all their apps and operating systems... *yuvk* | 00:11 |

| n0yd | Anyone ever use Moneydance? I just noticed it is available for Linux | 00:13 |
| n0yd | It looks quite nice for a financial app | 00:13 |
| IdleOne | n0yd: Could you please stick to Ubuntu support in here, if you want to chat there is #ubuntu-offtopic | 00:14 |
| n0yd | Um, I have been providing support. | 00:14 |
| chaotix | hi. when i try to recursively chmod a directory to 0777 or 0755 or anything according to the method described in 'man chmod', i get the return: chmod: invalid mode: ‘+R’ | 00:15 |
| n0yd | And asking for support ;) | 00:15 |
| Quix86 | n0yd, freenode is the fourth reich | 00:15 |
| chaotix | for example, if i enter: chmod +R 0777 '/var/www/symbiose/boot/' | 00:15 |
| erica_ | I have an inspiron 15 (1545) and 12.10 seems to be running pretty slowly on it, any way I can find out why? | 00:15 |
| IdleOne | n0yd: Not saying you haven't. Just asking that you do only support in here and keep the extra chatter out of here. | 00:15 |
| Totentag | This isn't quite Ubuntu based, but I'm looking for a quick bit of help with LibreOffice. | 00:15 |
| chaotix | what syntax do i need to properly chmod recursively these directories to 0777? | 00:16 |
| Quix86 | Right before I go to the trouble of patching a kernel | 00:16 |
| Quix86 | is there any -easier- way to lower the voltage on my chip in linux? | 00:16 |
| n0yd | Quix86, oh I am well aware. Been here for over 12 years | 00:16 |
| n0yd | Quix86, no there isnt | 00:16 |
| Quix86 | piss | 00:16 |
| n0yd | Besides letting speedstep do it, which are just preprogramed voltages | 00:17 |
| Totentag | Specifically, I need to figure out how, if possible, to use Sup- and Sub-script text. The formatting options seem a bit more sparse than I'm used to with Microsoft Office. | 00:17 |
| betrayd | chaotix anytime you run into trouble with a command ask the man e.g. man chmod in a terminal | 00:17 |
| ch900712 | Hello,,Can someone answer this questions for me , 1) How is Ivy Bridge hardware support with ubuntu ? 2) Im using nvidia Do I need to remove the sli bridge ? 3) How do I know everything is working properly ? 4) I use Virtual Machine for work if i transfer it from my windows system will it work ? | 00:17 |
| Quix86 | I want to say there is a program that you can use with PHC that allows you to change the voltages used with each speedstep setting | 00:18 |
| Quix86 | which will be a pain to set up, I'm sure | 00:18 |
| n0yd | ya there is | 00:18 |
| Totentag | Disregard my previous. Re-wording my Help search is all it took. | 00:18 |
| n0yd | but, you have to have a phc kernel | 00:18 |
| johnjohn101 | does ndiswrapper work in 13.04? I wanted to try it for a flaking usb wireless. | 00:18 |
| Quix86 | actually | 00:19 |
| n0yd | johnjohn101, i dont see why not | 00:19 |
| Quix86 | you know what? | 00:19 |
| julian-delphiki | chaotix, in general 777 is a bad idea. | 00:19 |
| Quix86 | I'm gonna try 3.2 | 00:19 |
| Quix86 | and if that doesn't work then I'll just get 12.04 | 00:19 |
| betrayd | how old is that writeup you're reading johnjohn101 | 00:19 |
| n0yd | Quix86, go ahead. But beware of what i said before | 00:19 |
| n0yd | Quix86, if you need help compiling the kernel, i can help you | 00:19 |
| n0yd | Quix86, make sure to install linux-firmware and linux-firmware-nonfree incase you need any of them with the 3.2 kernel | 00:20 |
| johnjohn101 | betrayd: this is the writeup http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBZa17yvl7o | 00:20 |
| Quix86 | n0yd frankly I'd rather just do a fresh install, I'm gonna have to do another one in a day or two | 00:20 |
| ch900712 | hello? | 00:20 |
| n0yd | Quix86, whys that? | 00:20 |
| Quix86 | because I've got a CF>PATA adapter coming in | 00:20 |
| Quix86 | I've got a thinkpad X41 and it uses 1.8" drives | 00:21 |
| Quix86 | those are -horrible- | 00:21 |
| n0yd | yup | 00:21 |
| Quix86 | so I've got a 8gb rather fast CF card sitting here | 00:21 |
| n0yd | So you are gonna use CF for a drive? | 00:21 |
| chaotix | betrayd, in 'man chmod' is says to use -R or --recursive | 00:21 |
| Quix86 | and hopefully it'll do the job | 00:21 |
| Quix86 | it's a lot cheaper than a PATA SSD | 00:21 |
| Quix86 | I can use a SD card for more space and a total of 40gb is plenty | 00:21 |
| n0yd | i use a 8GB class 10 SD for swap | 00:21 |
| n0yd | Quix86, Im actually looking at a mini pci-e SSD for my Thinkpad T500 | 00:22 |
| Quix86 | swap will kill it pretty quick I think... I need to learn how to set up a ramdisk as well | 00:22 |
| johnjohn101 | n0yd: you're not worried about wearing that SD card out? | 00:22 |
| n0yd | johnjohn101, nah, its a sd card, like 4 bucks, lol | 00:22 |
| n0yd | And I rarely swap | 00:22 |
| n0yd | I jhave 8GB of ram, only time I needx swap is when building android | 00:22 |
| dr_willis | ive not managed to wear out a sd card on my raspberrypi yet. ;) thats all it uses.. with swap partion even.. | 00:23 |
| n0yd | yup | 00:23 |
| n0yd | I do the same with my pi | 00:23 |
| dr_willis | plus ive found 32gb sdhc cards on sale for under $20 but i tend to use $5 8gb cards on the pi | 00:23 |
| betrayd | chaotix ya its uppercase | 00:23 |
| Quix86 | does the pi have a SDXC or whatever the new one is? I was doing research the other day and there are faster SD cards available with that | 00:24 |
| ch900712 | ji | 00:24 |
| chaotix | betrayd, i got it working | 00:24 |
| n0yd | I got some 64B class 10's off ebay for like 24 buckjs | 00:24 |
| Iceman_B | speaking of pie | 00:24 |
| n0yd | I use them for backups | 00:24 |
| dr_willis | Quix86: just sdhc. i use the 4 speed and 10 speed cards | 00:24 |
| n0yd | Micro sd's rather | 00:24 |
| chaotix | im trying out installing symbiose on my Ubuntu server | 00:24 |
| johnjohn101 | n0yd: name brand or off brand? | 00:24 |
| betrayd | nice chaotix thanks to the man | 00:24 |
| chaotix | yeah | 00:24 |
| Iceman_B | anyone know an easy way to turn a Pi into a pxe/TFTP server for Ubuntu? | 00:24 |
| n0yd | johnjohn101, name brand | 00:24 |
| chaotix | betrayd, i was doing +R instead of -R | 00:25 |
| Iceman_B | Im thinking of reinstalling a fresh server image, straight from the net | 00:25 |
| dr_willis | Iceman_B: install rasbian, then install the needed packages ;) i guess.. | 00:25 |
| betrayd | start by tajking out the word 'easy' | 00:25 |
| Iceman_B | dr_willis: that'll do the trick yeah? | 00:25 |
| n0yd | I wish my Gnexus had external SD | 00:25 |
| Learningg | Any1 knows what type of encryption hash this is: :B:a16634f1:e10626a1f8070171d17f25c064347b64 ???????????? | 00:25 |
| n0yd | But lots of devices are moving to non removable media | 00:25 |
| johnjohn101 | dr_willis: one day i'll get my rasp pi up and running | 00:25 |
| Iceman_B | I got one for Xmas | 00:26 |
| Iceman_B | company gift | 00:26 |
| Iceman_B | ...but its collecting dust dor now ._. | 00:26 |
| Iceman_B | *for | 00:26 |
| Learningg | Any1 knows what type of encryption hash this is: :B:a16634f1:e10626a1f8070171d17f25c064347b64 ???????????? | 00:26 |
| chaotix | this bad boy is running smoothe now | 00:26 |
| dr_willis | ive been using the Plex-Pi thing last week - it seems to be a handy tool.. if you use the plex media server | 00:26 |
| johnjohn101 | mine is sitting on my desk. no time. messing around with 13.04 now | 00:26 |
| Iceman_B | I suppose I could use it as a media server, but I need to hook up external storage | 00:26 |
| Iceman_B | or, use my existing server as a datastore | 00:27 |
| chaotix | for reference, ya'll should check out: https://github.com/symbiose/ | 00:27 |
| n0yd | I use my gnexus more than my pi. I can hook up my gnexus to my TV via hdmi with bluetooth keyboard and mouse. Its just easier forsimple stuf than the pi. But the pi is a great little hobby | 00:27 |
| dr_willis | Pi Makes a handy spare SSH terminal also ;) | 00:27 |
| chaotix | bye for now | 00:27 |
| Iceman_B | ...but first I need to revive the OS drive :/ | 00:27 |
| chaotix | thanks | 00:27 |
| n0yd | dr_willis, heh, i use myrouter for that all the time | 00:27 |
| Learningg | Any1 knows what type of encryption hash this is: :B:a16634f1:e10626a1f8070171d17f25c064347b64 ???????????? | 00:27 |
| betrayd | cya | 00:27 |
| n0yd | My router also does all of my usenet and torrents, with 2x2TB drives attached | 00:27 |
| dr_willis | Learningg: please.. spam the same question more often.... or perhaps ask in #linux since its not really #ubuntu specific | 00:28 |
| Iceman_B | speaking of OS disk | 00:28 |
| Iceman_B | is there a surefire way to tell my HDD is dying? | 00:28 |
| n0yd | smart? | 00:28 |
| Iceman_B | my filesystem keeps getting corrupted, but smart doesnt show anything decissive | 00:29 |
| dr_willis | Iceman_B: safest bet is to assume it WILL die.. and always have backups. | 00:29 |
| dr_willis | because eventually.. it will . ;) | 00:29 |
| Iceman_B | and a superblock restore helps....somewhat | 00:29 |
| n0yd | ya pretty much what dr_willis said lol | 00:29 |
| n0yd | But smart is good at finding issues | 00:29 |
| Iceman_B | dr_willis:well yes, but this is not about data backup | 00:29 |
| betrayd | the day he dacies to get an extra drive for backup is the day it will die | 00:29 |
| terretz | howdy - this is a newbie question but I'm trying to rename a directory that is my smb share and dlna media - I've stopped both smb and dlna but when I try to rename the folder I get an error that the device/resource is busy. | 00:29 |
| dr_willis | from what i recall reading.. dont rely on smart.. its a good tool. but not a guarenteed tool | 00:29 |
| Learningg | any1 knows what type of encryption hash this is: :B:a16634f1:e10626a1f8070171d17f25c064347b64 ???????????? | 00:29 |
| Iceman_B | this is about knowing if my damn server can run or not :/ | 00:29 |
| n0yd | As long as the drive is smart capable, most modern drives are | 00:29 |
| terretz | how can i find out what services are running on that directory? | 00:29 |
| n0yd | !ubott smart | 00:29 |
| Learningg | any1 knows what type of encryption hash this is: :B:a16634f1:e10626a1f8070171d17f25c064347b64 ???????????? pm me pls | 00:29 |
| n0yd | woops | 00:29 |
| terretz | or - what services are using it | 00:30 |
| n0yd | !ubottu smart | 00:30 |
| n0yd | meh, i forget how the bot works here | 00:30 |
| n0yd | lol | 00:30 |
| dr_willis | terretz: if you mount a samba whare.. unmount it.. and remount it to a differnt named directory. | 00:30 |
| n0yd | been sooo long | 00:30 |
| Quix86 | dr_willis, I believe that was from google's big hard drive life thing | 00:30 |
| qin | Learningg: its tiger128,3 | 00:30 |
| Iceman_B | n0yd: all 3 drives in my server are smart capable | 00:30 |
| betrayd | switch the name around n0yd | 00:30 |
| dr_willis | Quix86: yea. i recall it was a few yearss back | 00:30 |
| Iceman_B | and I read them out, and they all said "healthy" | 00:30 |
| n0yd | Iceman_B, so install smartmontools | 00:30 |
| Iceman_B | and yet my SDA1 keeps reverting to read-only mode :/ | 00:30 |
| n0yd | and whatever smart tools there may be | 00:30 |
| n0yd | !smart | 00:30 |
| ubottu | smart is Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, a monitoring system for hard drives. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Smartmontools | 00:30 |
| terretz | dr_willis, hm - thank you - I'll look into this - unmounting being the key word there. | 00:31 |
| Iceman_B | well...rightn ow im running from a rescuecd | 00:31 |
| n0yd | Iceman_B, is it detecting errors at startup? | 00:31 |
| Ari-Yang | how do you apt-get install 2 things at the same time? | 00:31 |
| n0yd | You can use smart from a rescurecd | 00:31 |
| Ari-Yang | is it apt-get install test & test2 ? | 00:31 |
| n0yd | Ari-Yang, apt-get install program1 program2 | 00:31 |
| Iceman_B | n0yd: not really | 00:31 |
| Ari-Yang | kk | 00:31 |
| n0yd | Iceman_B, why not? | 00:31 |
| n0yd | Ive done it | 00:32 |
| Iceman_B | oh | 00:32 |
| Iceman_B | I meant: no errors detected on startup | 00:32 |
| n0yd | Take a linux cd like ubuntu, load it. Mount drives, install smart | 00:32 |
| n0yd | oh | 00:32 |
| Iceman_B | until I try to run Aptitude | 00:32 |
| Siecje | so if you use something that is apache2 license does that mean your project must be apache2? | 00:32 |
| n0yd | weird | 00:32 |
| Iceman_B | then everything breaks | 00:32 |
| n0yd | did you use ext4tools to run a check? | 00:32 |
| n0yd | ie. fsck | 00:33 |
| n0yd | that would be my first course of action | 00:33 |
| n0yd | Well, besides backing up important data :P | 00:33 |
| n0yd | Its not a raid is it?\ | 00:33 |
| Iceman_B | no | 00:33 |
| Iceman_B | I just tried a Superblock restore via e2fsck | 00:34 |
| dr_willis | check the dmesg command when it fails.. see if it gives a cliue | 00:34 |
| n0yd | did fsck find errors? | 00:34 |
| n0yd | good idea dr | 00:34 |
| dr_willis | any hard drives i 'question' the reliability of.. become video storage drives for the kids roku's or other media players in the house. | 00:35 |
| dr_willis | if they die.. no big loss. | 00:35 |
| n0yd | ya | 00:35 |
| n0yd | storage is very cheap nowadays | 00:35 |
| Iceman_B | n0yd: well yes, (if I had a job) | 00:35 |
| n0yd | I had a 3ware SATAII raid card, it killed 6 1TB drives. | 00:35 |
| dr_willis | i have a redundant set of drives backing up "dora the explorer' ;) | 00:35 |
| n0yd | It took me a long time to realize the card was the issue | 00:35 |
| Iceman_B | but right now, I still need to find out if I actually need to replace the drive or not | 00:36 |
| n0yd | I did more research and for whatever reason those specific cards kill drives like crazy | 00:36 |
| terretz | dr_willis, Thank you! It worked! | 00:36 |
| Iceman_B | e2fsck found errors btw, it recovered that when I restored a superblock(whatever that is) | 00:36 |
| n0yd | lol | 00:36 |
| Iceman_B | im now running a badblock fsck | 00:36 |
| Iceman_B | ....that could take a while, no? | 00:36 |
| Iceman_B | 160G drive? | 00:36 |
| n0yd | nah | 00:37 |
| n0yd | not too long | 00:37 |
| n0yd | But definitely run smart | 00:37 |
| n0yd | You can install it on a livecd | 00:37 |
| dr_willis | a 160gb Normal (non ssd) hd? that , must be old. ;) | 00:37 |

| Iceman_B | man | 00:40 |
| Iceman_B | I think I;ve played on this box with Ubuntu 6.something | 00:41 |
| Iceman_B | and my linux-fu is still WEAK | 00:41 |
| n0yd | Like 5 years ago, I bought a Packard Bell 166Mhz, off ebay for like 5 bucks plus shipping. I used it just for a router | 00:41 |
| Iceman_B | WEAK like twig | 00:41 |
| LLckfan | My modem went out (like the cable company was working on the line) and now the router will not connect to the internet. Is there some way to get it to see the internet again without reinstalling the software? (BTW I am hooked up to the modem right now) | 00:41 |
| n0yd | Stuck some nics in it, and stuck some wifi cards in. | 00:41 |
| Iceman_B | my WRT54GL mocks your Pbell... | 00:41 |
| n0yd | lol | 00:41 |
| Quix86 | I've got one of those | 00:41 |
| n0yd | And my RT-n16 mocks your WRT54GL | 00:42 |
| Iceman_B | :( | 00:42 |
| Quix86 | I'm actually thinking I need to upgrade now, since I transfer files over my local network on occasion | 00:42 |
| n0yd | Along with my WRT54G-TM | 00:42 |
| Quix86 | and have gigabit/wireless N devices | 00:42 |
| n0yd | The best model 54G ever made | 00:42 |
| Iceman_B | LLckfan: uh, huh ? arent you connected to the internet now? | 00:42 |
| n0yd | Its only my spare, i dont use it. 54G is t slow | 00:42 |
| LLckfan | BTW I am hooked right to the modem | 00:43 |
| n0yd | Iceman_B, hes conncted | 00:43 |
| n0yd | directly | 00:43 |
| n0yd | woops | 00:43 |
| n0yd | LLckfan, you need to reboot the router | 00:43 |
| Iceman_B | oh right, router, my bad | 00:43 |
| n0yd | Reboot the modem, then reboot the router | 00:43 |
| Iceman_B | and possibly release the DHCP lease on your computer | 00:43 |
| LLckfan | Not a he | 00:43 |
| Iceman_B | before you hook up your router | 00:43 |
| Quix86 | n0yd, what about the WRTU54G-TM then? | 00:44 |
| n0yd | WRTU? | 00:44 |
| Quix86 | like the TM but with 64mb ram | 00:44 |
| Iceman_B | why have I never heard of these models...... | 00:44 |
| n0yd | I hought the TM already has 64 | 00:44 |
| Quix86 | 32 | 00:44 |
| n0yd | Iceman_B, they were Tmobile models | 00:44 |
| TheUsD | WRD2000v3/DD-WRT :( | 00:44 |
| n0yd | Made for VOIP, which s why they were high ram | 00:44 |
| Iceman_B | ah | 00:45 |
| Iceman_B | US -only perhaps | 00:45 |
| n0yd | Quix86, interesting, I thught mine had 64GB | 00:45 |
| Quix86 | not according to wikiped | 00:45 |
| n0yd | Iceman_B, Tmobile is us on afaIK | 00:45 |
| n0yd | maybe not, its been like 4 years | 00:45 |
| Iceman_B | a few years ago, I specifically bought a wrt54gL to flash it with dd-wrt | 00:45 |
| n0yd | I hate dd-wrt | 00:45 |
| LLckfan | Then I lose everything and I am not secure | 00:46 |
| Iceman_B | I am too dumb to hate or love those cfw's | 00:46 |
| Iceman_B | all I know is it works | 00:46 |
| Iceman_B | and keeps my router stable | 00:46 |
| n0yd | I used to like it, before I realized there are better options | 00:46 |
| Iceman_B | suchas ? | 00:46 |
| n0yd | tomato, tomatousb and the other tomatousb custoom builds | 00:46 |
| TheUsD | Tornado isnt a bad one | 00:46 |
| n0yd | tornado? | 00:46 |
| Iceman_B | openWRT perhaps? | 00:46 |
| n0yd | Also debian-wrt | 00:46 |
| n0yd | openwrt is alright | 00:47 |
| TheUsD | eh' tomato tornado, whatever | 00:47 |
| Iceman_B | LLckfan: did you try powercycling your router yet? | 00:47 |
| === markalanevans_ is now known as markalanevans | ||
| Iceman_B | after that, try releaseing your IP, plug your router in and request an IP | 00:47 |
| n0yd | Even asus's stock WRT is nice or the custom version made by merlin. You can install apps on it, etc | 00:47 |
| Iceman_B | although I have no real idea how to do that on Linux ._. | 00:47 |
| n0yd | But even the sock asuswrt has all the goodies | 00:47 |
| Iceman_B | note: chocolate and sake are a terrible mix | 00:48 |
| Iceman_B | DO NOT MIX THEM | 00:48 |
| * Iceman_B coughs up I/O errors | 00:48 | |
| n0yd | LLckfan, power cycling your router wouldnt make you "non secure" | 00:48 |
| LLckfan | Ice I have done that before | 00:48 |
| LLckfan | Nothing happened | 00:48 |
| === peter_ is now known as Guest13841 | ||
| n0yd | This really isnt an issue about Ubuntu. Its either your router or your modem | 00:49 |
| Iceman_B | LLckfan: well, coming from my days as tech support, try pluggin in your router and then log into your router locally | 00:49 |
| LLckfan | I was told to ask here | 00:49 |
| Iceman_B | see of IT gets an IP or not | 00:49 |
| LLckfan | I have | 00:49 |
| n0yd | and? | 00:50 |
| Quix86 | is the intel 4965AGB supported in ubuntu/linux yet? Supported as in, just works like my 3945 | 00:50 |
| LLckfan | It connects but is not connecting to the internet | 00:50 |
| n0yd | You arent giving us much info to go on | 00:50 |
| n0yd | Waiut wait | 00:50 |
| n0yd | The router gets an IP from the modem? | 00:50 |
| === vox_ is now known as vox | ||
| Iceman_B | LLckfan: then you need to call your ISP and bitch them | 00:50 |
| n0yd | If you go into the router via the web browser, and look at the Wan IP, is there anything? | 00:50 |
| Iceman_B | (or you need to set your modem to Bridge mode) | 00:50 |
| n0yd | NOT the lan IP | 00:50 |
| n0yd | The Wan IP | 00:51 |
| n0yd | Also, is this DSL or Cable? | 00:51 |
| n0yd | If its DSL, are you using a Modem that requires your router use PPEOE | 00:51 |
| LLckfan | The router is not thiers | 00:53 |
| n0yd | that doesnt mean anything | 00:54 |
| n0yd | we cant help you unless you give us more information | 00:54 |
| n0yd | Ive asked you many questions, with no answers | 00:54 |
| LLckfan | Answered the DSL or cable in the question | 00:56 |
| Quix86 | dd if=~/importantthings/commoncents of=llckfan | 00:56 |
| n0yd | I give up | 00:58 |
| n0yd | Call your ISP or router manufacturer | 00:58 |
| LLckfan | No help] | 00:58 |
| LLckfan | Cable | 00:58 |
| LLckfan | It is Cable | 00:59 |
| LLckfan | Which I said in the question | 00:59 |
| LLckfan | Tell u all what happened | 00:59 |
| LLckfan | Was online though the router. I am guessing they unplugged the line to work on it as all the lights on the modem where out | 01:00 |
| LLckfan | When the come back on router had no internet | 01:00 |
| Iceman_B | LLckfan: the thing is | 01:00 |
| Iceman_B | if your modem is now online, then you have an internet connection | 01:00 |
| Iceman_B | if your router doesnt go online: either your router is broken, or your ISP is broken | 01:01 |
| Iceman_B | its not really a ubuntu or even linux issue, from what I(we) can tell | 01:01 |
| n0yd | Did you ever power-cycle the modem? | 01:02 |
| n0yd | and the router | 01:02 |
| LLckfan | Yes | 01:03 |
| n0yd | It sounds when your modem got disconnected, the IP changed. The router has the old IP stuck in it | 01:03 |
| n0yd | Well, reboot the router and modem a few times. Ive seen it take a couple times | 01:03 |
| n0yd | Sadly, comcast here goes out quite often | 01:03 |
| LLckfan | I have | 01:03 |
| LLckfan | The modem works fine | 01:04 |
| n0yd | OMG | 01:04 |
| n0yd | The router | 01:04 |
| n0yd | Reboot it, with the modem connected, like 3 times. | 01:04 |
| Iceman_B | why had nobody murdered someone at Comcast yet? | 01:04 |
| Iceman_B | over here(Netherlands), only horror stories reach my ears about cable ISP's | 01:05 |
| LLckfan | I have | 01:05 |
| n0yd | Check to see if it works each time you reboot it | 01:05 |
| Iceman_B | in the US I mean | 01:05 |
| n0yd | Ok | 01:05 |
| n0yd | So when you have the modem hooked up to the router (NOT to your pc) and you go into the routers config page via your browser, is there an WAN IP? | 01:06 |
| LLckfan | I have not tried | 01:06 |
| n0yd | Well i asked you to do that like 20min ago | 01:07 |
| terretz | can anyone assist with an fstab issue I'm having? | 01:07 |
| n0yd | You see why you are not getting anywhere? | 01:07 |
| n0yd | terretz, pastebin the fstab? | 01:07 |
| n0yd | We dont know if we can help til you actually ask the question | 01:07 |
| LLckfan | I have done it before and it was there | 01:07 |
| n0yd | You just said you didnt try | 01:07 |
| n0yd | What one is it? | 01:08 |
| Iceman_B | speaking of fstab | 01:08 |
| n0yd | i feel like I am being trolling | 01:08 |
| n0yd | trolled* | 01:08 |
| Iceman_B | whats the difference between fstab and mtab? | 01:08 |
| terretz | long story short: unmounted my share, renamed it, changed /etc/fstab to reflect changes - when I mount /dev/sdb1 I get an error that a line in my fstab is incorrect | 01:08 |
| terretz | BUT | 01:08 |
| === Maelstrom is now known as Catalyst | ||
| n0yd | fstab is what should mount on boot, mtab is what currently mounted | 01:08 |
| n0yd | like when you run "mount" it lists mtab | 01:09 |
| n0yd | NOT fstab | 01:09 |
| terretz | if I sudo mount /dev/sdb1 to the directory - it works | 01:09 |
| === Catalyst is now known as Guest77451 | ||
| n0yd | terretz, what line is it sayiung is incorrect | 01:09 |
| n0yd | We need to know the error | 01:09 |
| terretz | n0yd, 12 | 01:09 |
| n0yd | Paste the fstab iinto pastebin | 01:09 |
| dr_willis | and the exact fstab line | 01:09 |
| terretz | 1 sec | 01:09 |
| n0yd | Like I said originally | 01:09 |
| dr_willis | the mountpoint must exist befor you mount.. and be sure its spelt right | 01:09 |
| terretz | /usr/bin/setxkbmap -option "ctrl:swapcaps" | 01:10 |
| terretz | oops | 01:10 |
| terretz | [mntent]: line 12 in /etc/fstab is bad | 01:10 |

| n0yd | paste the whole fstab | 01:10 |
| terretz | mount: can't find /dev/sdb in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 01:10 |
| n0yd | Like ive asked 3 times now | 01:10 |
| n0yd | We dont know what the line says | 01:10 |
| terretz | # /etc/fstab: static file system information. | 01:10 |
| terretz | # | 01:10 |

| terretz | n0yd, that's the mount point | 01:15 |
| n0yd | im pretty sure the naming of it is the problem | 01:15 |
| terretz | ok | 01:15 |
| terretz | 1 word? | 01:15 |
| n0yd | yup | 01:15 |
| terretz | ok | 01:15 |

| n0yd | the \040 is the space | 01:19 |
| terretz | including the 040? | 01:20 |

| KundiMeikkaa | So when you plug in an external drive it default mounts on /media/<name>, any way to chance that behaviour? | 01:31 |
| KundiMeikkaa | As in change the folder it default mounts to | 01:31 |
| Ben64 | !fstab | KundiMeikkaa | 01:31 |
| ubottu | KundiMeikkaa: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 01:31 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Ben64, fstab doesn't allow you to specify a general mount point for any external drive plugged in | 01:32 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Only for specific drives if you know their UUID or name | 01:32 |
| KundiMeikkaa | device name* | 01:32 |

| qpucka | pulseaudio help? anyone? | 01:33 |

| KundiMeikkaa | ben64, well, if you plug in an external device, including a CD, it default mounts this under the /media directory. I want to change that to another directory | 01:34 |
| Ben64 | KundiMeikkaa: whats the point of that? | 01:34 |
| qpucka | sorry. i've already looked over the forums. will try again. | 01:34 |
| KundiMeikkaa | For any drive, including CD's, SD cards | 01:34 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Ben64, I want to mount it under a space I share outwardly specifically. | 01:34 |
| KundiMeikkaa | As in, so that i can access the contents of a CD or an external drive plugged in from another computer | 01:34 |
| Ben64 | why not share /media then... | 01:35 |
| === cubix``278 is now known as cubix` | ||
| Guest77451 | make a simlink | 01:35 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Ben64, well, because that requires two different login accounts for every folder (and their subfolders) to to share. The other alternative would be to share the common ancestor of all folders but that would be / and I don't think I want to do that. | 01:35 |
| johnjohn101 | using samba makes it very ez to share a directory in ubuntu | 01:36 |
| KundiMeikkaa | I am using samba, but it requires you to have different login instances for different directories it seems. | 01:36 |
| Ben64 | depends how you set up samba | 01:36 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Unless you share their common ancestor. | 01:36 |
| Guest77451 | KundiMeikkaa: nvm Ben64 hes just trying to wast your time with pesky q and a | 01:36 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Hmm, well, I couldn't find how to set it up. | 01:36 |
| KundiMeikkaa | I also tried a symlink but it then complains about permissions on the other computer | 01:37 |
| Ben64 | share /media and everything underneath is shared | 01:37 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Because I guess it's technically not in permission range because it's actually on another part of the filesystem | 01:37 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Ben64, of course, but it requires then two different login instances toa ccess /media and /public at the same time | 01:37 |
| KundiMeikkaa | So that's why I want it to mount under /public/media | 01:37 |
| Ben64 | you never said anything about /public | 01:38 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Well, /public is that public folder. | 01:38 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Which I share | 01:38 |
| Ben64 | and you can use the same login to access it all | 01:38 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Well, I didn't get that to work, even so though, if it's at all possible I'd also like to know how to set up the default mounting location | 01:38 |
| KundiMeikkaa | It's useful info anyway | 01:38 |
| Ben64 | but you should be able to ln -s /media /public/ | 01:39 |
| Guest77451 | what if he wants to mount it under another dir? | 01:39 |
| Guest77451 | whats it to you why? | 01:39 |
| Guest77451 | just anser the question | 01:39 |
| Ben64 | Guest77451: this does not concern you | 01:39 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Ben64, first thing I tried, it complains about permissions because it's technically located on the filesystem on a palce where sambda has not gotten permission to share | 01:39 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Ben64, if I'm to be frank, I concur with Guest7831, too often when I'm asking for people honestly waste time asking why I want to do something | 01:40 |
| KundiMeikkaa | While explaining the nature of my problem isn't relevant in this case. | 01:40 |
| kevin^ | hey guys. using rdesktop with the en-us keymap, but when i connect to a machine (based in europe) , the key events are incorrect. for example, the @ shows up as a " or something. thoughts? | 01:40 |
| Ben64 | it's much less than trivial to do what you're asking | 01:40 |
| Guest77451 | ~meaning you dont know | 01:41 |
| Ben64 | thats not what i said, keep out of it | 01:41 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Ben64, I assumed as suich since google didn't give me anything. Which si weird because you'd assume ti's a very simpkle setting somewhere | 01:41 |
| johnjohn101 | i agree with Ben64, i'm not sure why you can't mount the drive to a directory that samba can use | 01:41 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Ben64, well, do you know? | 01:41 |
| Ben64 | yes | 01:41 |
| KundiMeikkaa | johnjohn101, even if I could, I'd still just like to kbnow how change this default behaviour | 01:41 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Ben64, is there a particular technical reason why it isn't trivial because I don't see why it shouldn't be. | 01:41 |
| Ben64 | you could just enable symlinks in samba config | 01:42 |
| johnjohn101 | are you trying to change the default direction where you usb drive mounts? | 01:42 |
| johnjohn101 | default directory | 01:42 |
| KundiMeikkaa | johnjohn101, yap | 01:42 |
| KundiMeikkaa | currently it/ s in /media | 01:42 |
| KundiMeikkaa | I'd like to just change that to whatever I want | 01:42 |
| johnjohn101 | ben64, won't fstab work? | 01:43 |
| KundiMeikkaa | I don't know a way in fstab to do it for _all_ media devices | 01:43 |

| johnjohn101 | KundiMeikkaa: symlinks don't work for yo? | 01:45 |
| KundiMeikkaa | johnjohn101, well, samba still complains about permission even though I just checked the setting and it's enabled | 01:46 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Because it's technically stil on a part of the filesystem that samba isn't allowed to share | 01:46 |

| johnjohn101 | KundiMeikkaa: I don't know how to change the automount directory. how many different devices are you trying to mount? | 01:58 |
| KundiMeikkaa | johnjohn101, currently I have a DvD drive, (each CD has a different UUID of course), an MP3 player, a tablet, 2 external drives, an SD card and a digital camera. | 02:00 |
| KundiMeikkaa | These all get automounted under /media/<name> | 02:00 |
| dr_willis | you could always make soft links to make them also appear wherever you wanted. | 02:01 |
| johnjohn101 | and you'd like them mounted under /public/d<name> | 02:01 |
| KundiMeikkaa | johnjohn101, well under /public/media/<name> yeah | 02:01 |
| KundiMeikkaa | dr_willis, already done that, it just gnaws on me that I don't know how to change something that should be so simple and neither does google. | 02:01 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Almost everyone comes with symlinks which is a hack, it should be possible to change that in some setting | 02:02 |

| dr_willis | KundiMeikkaa: for auto mounting, i woudl think it would be udev rules.. but ive never needed or wanted to change the defaults. ;) | 02:02 |
| KundiMeikkaa | dr_willis, where are the udev rules? | 02:03 |
| dr_willis | !udev | 02:03 |
| dr_willis | somewhere in /etc/ i recall having to tweak some rules once ages ago for a tablet.. | 02:03 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Well, I'm sure google knows | 02:04 |

| johnjohn101 | good luck | 02:06 |
| dr_willis | i seem to recall being able to make specific rules to mount devices to specific locations based on their UUID, or label, or other information about the device | 02:07 |
| KundiMeikkaa | wow, that's complicated to hjust change the default automount point wow | 02:07 |
| dr_willis | what you are doing would be considered some what odd.. and well a bit insecure | 02:07 |
| KundiMeikkaa | It seems this is still on a per device basis though | 02:07 |
| johnjohn101 | I don't understand if symlinks works, then why not use it? | 02:08 |
| KundiMeikkaa | I am using it, it just frustrates me that there isn't a simple setting to change such a simple thing. | 02:10 |
| KundiMeikkaa | The OS choose for me that it should be in /media/<name> what if I wanted it to be in /external-drives and seperate external drives and CD's for instance | 02:11 |
| dr_willis | perhaps because its not a simple thing? | 02:11 |
| KundiMeikkaa | I see no theoretical reason why it can't be? | 02:11 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Is there some theoretical reason why you can't choose that folder? | 02:11 |
| dr_willis | i imagine because the udev rules are written to use /media/ as ubuntu has used /media/ since... well.. a long time ago | 02:12 |
| johnjohn101 | my best guess is that no one has taken the time to develop that functionality. | 02:12 |
| dr_willis | the switch to /media/username/ is a relatively recent change | 02:12 |
| KundiMeikkaa | That too, is silly because it breaks so much stuff. | 02:12 |
| dr_willis | cant really sayve ive noticed it breaking stuff. | 02:13 |
| KundiMeikkaa | dr_willis, but meh, it should be possible to just change a simple global setting at some point | 02:13 |
| === DouglasKAway is now known as DouglasK | ||
| johnjohn101 | KundiMeikkaa: you're welcome to to the mount yourself? turn off automount. | 02:13 |
| dr_willis | everything should be a globle setting then eh? | 02:13 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Well, if someone has a script which assumes CD's are located at /media/<name> that script then breaks | 02:13 |
| dr_willis | !info automountfs | 02:13 |
| ubottu | Package automountfs does not exist in raring | 02:13 |
| KundiMeikkaa | dr_willis, I do believe everything should be customizable as mucha s possible yes | 02:13 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Different people, different needs | 02:13 |
| dr_willis | KundiMeikkaa: thats why the udev rules are all text files and fairly easy to change. | 02:14 |
| KundiMeikkaa | Say I'm French and allergic to English and I want it on /medias | 02:14 |
| qin | KundiMeikkaa: changing /media/ to /media/$USER do not looks hard.. | 02:14 |
| KundiMeikkaa | dr_willis, well, they still seem to work on a device by device basis from what I read | 02:14 |
| johnjohn101 | KundiMeikkaa: I think you are nitpicking this but the bottom line is that what you're asking is a low priority. Open up an issue in launchpad and see if someone picks it up. that's the best you can do | 02:14 |
| KundiMeikkaa | qin, it isn't hard, but it does break stuff before you chjange it | 02:14 |
| dr_willis | KundiMeikkaa: they have rules/patterns they can follow | 02:14 |
| KundiMeikkaa | If you have a lot of scripts, it's not pretty | 02:14 |
| KundiMeikkaa | johnjohn101, I'm hardly nitpicking, you have to admit that not being able to change the default mount folder is weird, you'd expect it to be in some config file. | 02:15 |
| johnjohn101 | KundiMeikkaa: you can use the mount command to move it to whatever directory you want but not automount | 02:15 |

| KundiMeikkaa | " | 02:18 |
| williangliao | dr_willis: when i boot usb,it's Black screen | 02:18 |
| KundiMeikkaa | qin, also that is not a general solution, that just sets it back to /media instead of /media/<username> | 02:19 |
| dr_willis | williangliao: then you should have said so the first place... | 02:19 |
| KundiMeikkaa | It doesn't provide you with a way to generally change the automount point to anything you want | 02:19 |

| dr_willis | Hmm.. cant say ive seen a nvidia card that allowed 3 monitors... but ive not bought a new card in ages. | 02:22 |
| Campfire | oh yeah ty pdqman | 02:23 |
| KundiMeikkaa | I'm also confused why it's a missing functionality, it seems like that when you code in the automount behaviour one of the things you do is letting it read the automount folder from some configuration setting at some point | 02:23 |
| KundiMeikkaa | instead of hardcoding it in it | 02:23 |
| n0yd | dr_willis, dual dvi and hdmi? | 02:23 |

| dr_willis | but that was at least 4 yrs ago | 02:25 |
| Campfire | noyd yes amizon | 02:25 |
| KundiMeikkaa | In some edge cases a generally unsensible option is just needed | 02:25 |
| johnjohn101 | KundiMeikkaa: you're always free to dive into the udev rules and figure it out, then share with everyone, you'll be a hero and maybe move to up a linux grade | 02:25 |
| KundiMeikkaa | johnjohn101, well, form what I read it isn't possible with udev | 02:25 |
| KundiMeikkaa | You have to do it on a per device basis | 02:25 |
| KundiMeikkaa | udev overrides a global setting on a per device basis and you cannot alter the global setting which is hardcoded into the OS, the only wayt to chance it is alter the OS and recompile | 02:26 |

| pepee | LLckfan, the problem is your router then... | 02:40 |
| === harmagent is now known as vector | ||
| pepee | try configuring it or something | 02:41 |
| DmiCool20 | Ben64: yep, http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-Video | 02:41 |
| LLckfan | HOW | 02:41 |
| seronis | LLckfan: some modems bind to a specific MAC address as they are turned on. So you might need to unplug BOTH the router and modem and power cycle them | 02:41 |
| Ben64 | LLckfan: google your router? find the manual? | 02:41 |
| DmiCool20 | brb | 02:42 |
| Ben64 | DmiCool20: still nope | 02:42 |
| seronis | LLckfan: specifially i've had 2 friends with routers that did this. If the modem powered on while directly connected to the computer it would refuse to recognize the router until it was rebooted | 02:42 |
| DmiCool20 | !afk | 02:42 |
| ubottu | Please do not use noisy away messages and nicks in Ubuntu channels. It is annoying and unnecessary. Use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently. See also «/msg ubottu Guidelines» | 02:42 |
| pepee | LLckfan, ^. generally, the routers use the URL: http://192.168.1.1/ | 02:42 |
| LLckfan | I have the manual | 02:42 |
| LLckfan | Does not help | 02:42 |
| Ben64 | read it | 02:42 |
| Ben64 | or get a new router | 02:42 |
| LLckfan | Cannot get a new router | 02:42 |
| seronis | LLckfan: unplug BOTH your modem AND your router for 30 seconds | 02:42 |

| Ben64 | LLckfan: ask #networking | 02:49 |

| DmiCool20 | it does it by default | corey | 02:54 |

| DouglasK | Hi, I'm using 12.04. On boot, the wired network behaves fine. After a while (anywhere from an hour to a couple days) it slows to a crawl, then non responsive. The system load remains low (top shows load averages all below 0.3). Ideas? | 02:55 |
| DmiCool20 | same thing | rcdrc | 02:55 |

| DmiCool20 | g++ is a link to gcc | rcdrc | 02:55 |

| rcdrc | so if i'm focus to C not c++, gcc is my choose? | 02:56 |
| LLckfan | This one come with a cd | 02:56 |
| LLckfan | And the cd has stuff to install | 02:56 |
| rcdrc | thx seronis. | 02:56 |
| seronis | LLckfan: the CD is worthless. routers use standard ethernet protocol to communicate. the cd itself only logs into your router over telnet to set up encryption and other settings | 02:57 |
| rcdrc | so if i'm focus to C not c++, gcc is my chooice? | 02:57 |
| Corey | rcdrc: Either way. | 02:57 |
| seronis | rcdrc: same compiler for both | 02:57 |
| Corey | clang is also gaining some traction. | 02:58 |
| Ben64 | you should really check out the gcc man page :) .... gcc - GNU project C and C++ compiler | 02:58 |
| rcdrc | thx for all | 02:58 |
| johnjohn101 | you're welcome | 02:58 |

| harris | ok great ty | 03:21 |
| johnjohn101 | LLckfan: your cable modem isn't working. to prove it, use an ethernet cable to plug your computer into it. if you dont' get an ip address then it's not the OS | 03:21 |
| seronis | LLckfan: irc = idle response chat. either follow advice given or wait for someone in #networking to respond. while waiting continue to google for information on your specific router. log into its administrative settings page and LOOK at the settings | 03:21 |
| seronis | johnjohn101: his router stopped working. cable modem direct connect works fine | 03:22 |
| seronis | its already not an OS issue | 03:22 |
| LLckfan | No advice has been given | 03:22 |
| tgm4883 | LLckfan, out of curiosity, did you power cycle both the modem and router? | 03:23 |

| dr_willis | harris: if you are wanting somthing playable in a DVD | 03:39 |
| harris | how do i use devede | 03:39 |
| harris | no i need it same file | 03:39 |
| harris | same exact thing | 03:39 |
| harris | but another copy | 03:39 |

| CrispyHex | Hey noob question. | 03:39 |
| CrispyHex | I have windows 7 installed and running on a terabyte HDD. | 03:39 |
| CrispyHex | I have a 60 gigabyte SSD with nothing on it. | 03:39 |
| CrispyHex | How do I, from a bootable ubuntu flashdrive, install ubuntu on the SSD? | 03:39 |
| CrispyHex | I essentially want to dual-boot the two OSs but I want them to each be full and independent. | 03:39 |
| FloodBot1 | CrispyHex: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:39 |
| dr_willis | asking how to use somthing befor you even have it installed..... install it.. run devede... figure it out.. | 03:39 |
| dr_willis | harris: again. you are being a bit vague. You want somthing playable in a DVD player. use devede.. if you just want the FILES on a data cd/dvd. theres numerous burner tools for that. that do NOT convert/alter the video file | 03:40 |
| harris | ok my dad is going to do it | 03:41 |
| * dr_willis closes the ticket | 03:41 | |
| * inflex does so dearly love X over SSH *loving sigh* | 03:41 | |
| harris | thank you for trying | 03:41 |
| SolarisB1y | CrispyHex: just pick the ssd during installation for ubuntu, update grub later and add an entry for windows on the other disk - | 03:41 |
| johnjohn101 | thanks harris | 03:41 |
| harris | for what> | 03:42 |
| harris | ? | 03:42 |
| johnjohn101 | sorry, brasero didn't work for you | 03:42 |
| SolarisB1y | you may need to tell your bios to boot the disk containing grub first - | 03:42 |
| dr_willis | theres burner tools other then brassero | 03:42 |
| dr_willis | i tend to use k3b | 03:42 |
| harris | my dad will hopefully get it if not the schools it person will | 03:42 |
| CrispyHex | what if I disconnected the terabyte(windows) from the computer and made it so the SSD is the only drive. would it cause problems once I hooked the HDD back up? | 03:43 |
| dr_willis | CrispyHex: that should work. | 03:44 |
| SolarisB1y | assuming you disconnected it properly no - | 03:44 |
| LLckfan | My modem went out (like the cable company was working on the line) and now the router will not connect to the internet. Is there some way to get it to see the internet again without reinstalling the software? (BTW I am hooked up to the modem right now) | 03:44 |
| dr_willis | CrispyHex: you will need to boot the ubuntu drive. then rerun update-grub if you wan tto boot windows via grub.. or just select what hd to boot ivia the bios stuff | 03:44 |
| SolarisB1y | you'll still need to update grub to run a "dual boot" later | 03:44 |
| harris | ok good night\ | 03:44 |
| inflex | dr_willis: downloading the v319 driver direct from nVidia, creating my own xorg.conf .... fingers crossed. | 03:45 |
| SolarisB1y | dr_willis: grub scans all disks or just the disk its installed on for os? | 03:45 |
| dr_willis | SolarisB1y: all of them | 03:45 |
| SolarisB1y | ah | 03:45 |
| SolarisB1y | so even easier | 03:45 |
| CrispyHex | OK so unhook the HDD, install Ubuntu on SSD, reconnect the HDD, then update Grub? | 03:45 |
| silv3r_m00n | i am running ubuntu 64bit, how can i installed perl 32bit ? | 03:45 |
| SolarisB1y | not sure why you need to unhook the hdd | 03:45 |
| SolarisB1y | you said its blank and the other has windows- leave the TB in and install to the SDD unless you need to for some other reason ubuntu will ask what disk to install too and when you intsall grub it should scan disks - | 03:47 |
| somsip | silv3r_m00n: a couple of shots - a maybe, and a 'it wont': http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1527259/how-can-i-install-a-separate-perl-without-disturbing-the-existing-one http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16604905/how-can-i-install-mysql-client-of-32bit-into-ubuntu-12-04-of-64bit | 03:47 |
| CrispyHex | to make it simple. as of now ubuntu keeps trying to install on the HDD alongside windows. when I try to install onto the SSD it says something like " no root defined" or something. | 03:47 |
| somsip | silv3r_m00n: erm..sorry. The second one refers to mysql. Moment of madness there | 03:47 |
| SolarisB1y | ok i see CrispyHex then you have a reason | 03:47 |

| scythe | So I'm not sure how to Google this one, which led me here. | 04:15 |
| scythe | When ssh wants to use my private key, it asks for a password, and it does so by popping up a little window. | 04:16 |
| scythe | But if I'm already ssh'ing into the system, and I have no X session, it just fails. | 04:16 |
| scythe | I have -absolutely no fucking reason- to X-forward besides using ssh, which should not require X at all. | 04:17 |
| scythe | so how do I disable this behavior? I don't even know what it's called. | 04:17 |
| scythe | I'd much rather it just ask for my password in the tty. | 04:19 |
| maher77 | hi | 04:19 |
| dr_willis | scythe: what ssh client/terminal app are you using? | 04:19 |
| dr_willis | ive never seen ssh pop up a dialog asking for my ssh password. | 04:20 |
| brian_ | Hello? | 04:21 |
| dr_willis | Jello! | 04:21 |
| scythe | dr_willis: Uh, 'ssh', as in, typing 'ssh scythe@host.gatech.edu', or, in this case, git-over-ssh, which runs the same command. | 04:21 |
| brian_ | I'm having trouble installing Vi Improved on my machine. | 04:22 |
| scythe | It's from a default install of 12.04. | 04:22 |

| dr_willis | scythe: so you are doing this in 'gnome-terminal' ? | 04:22 |
| scythe | It happens in gnome-terminal, but it also happens if I try to do it via an ssh tunnel... | 04:22 |
| scythe | wait a second | 04:22 |
| scythe | an ssh tunnel built from an autossh session | 04:23 |
| dr_willis | makes me wonder if its not gnome-keyring doing somthing | 04:23 |

| scythe | My ~/.ssh/config contains Host "host", User "user", Key "key". If I enter the key using ssh -i key user@host it works, but ssh user@host doesn't. | 04:26 |

| tohuw | DouglasK: specifically, it means a client at ip223.hichina.com has established an SSH connection over port 50022. It is worth noting this does not imply the client has any particular access; only that the SSH tunnel is established and in some phase of layer 7 transmission. | 05:20 |
| DouglasK | or at least a connection to the ssh port, not necessarily logged in / with access, yes? | 05:21 |
| aMoniker | vsftpd or proftpd? | 05:21 |
| dr_willis | aMoniker: best would be to use ssh/scp/sftp | 05:22 |
| CrispyHex | And I have two sets of the icons that appear in the top right corner( envalope, internet connection, sound, and time). One in the top right corner where it should be, and another just to the left of it.lol really weird. | 05:22 |
| dr_willis | CrispyHex: sounds like a video driver bug. what is your video chipset? | 05:22 |
| aMoniker | dr_willis: In this case I will probably need plain FTP | 05:22 |
| CrispyHex | radeon 6800>??? I think>? | 05:23 |
| dr_willis | aMoniker: flip a coin.. youve give us no details as to the use case for the ftp server. | 05:23 |
| aMoniker | dr_willis: which is easier to set up? | 05:23 |
| dr_willis | theres other ftp servers in the repos also. | 05:23 |
| dr_willis | CrispyHex: you have installed the fglrx drivers? | 05:24 |
| aMoniker | dr_willis: which is best? | 05:24 |
| dr_willis | there is no 'best' | 05:24 |
| dr_willis | it depends on your needs | 05:24 |
| DouglasK | tohuw: or at least a connection to the ssh server on the local machine, not necessarily logged in / with access, yes? | 05:24 |
| aMoniker | dr_willis: which is of the highest quality while being easy to set up? | 05:24 |
| CrispyHex | not sure what that is, so most likely no. haha | 05:24 |
| brian_ | dr_willis: All I can seem to find out is it is a Centrino I think it is clocked at 1.5ghz Only one core | 05:24 |
| clcto | aMoniker: if you have sshd you have scp | 05:24 |
| * dr_willis has to run.. bbl | 05:24 | |
| aMoniker | clcto: Neither of those are FTP. | 05:25 |
| clcto | aMoniker: nope but scp works fine | 05:25 |
| aMoniker | clcto: Not for this application. | 05:25 |
| tohuw | DouglasK: Correct. To see precisely what the account is doing, I suggest looking at logged in users first: who -a | 05:25 |
| DouglasK | tohuw, yup, nothing unexpected there, just me from my ssh session on the local lan and the consoles. | 05:26 |
| aMoniker | What about PureFTPd? | 05:27 |
| DouglasK | tohuw, it's about what I thought, but as I was having other network related issues, I figured make sure this is chased down. I've now set the router to block incoming from that class c. | 05:28 |
| tohuw | DouglasK: kill them off, if you don't want that client hanging out on the port. Or block them from your firewall, which it seems you've done. :) | 05:28 |
| aMoniker | I guess no one knows FTP here. Looks like PureFTPd is a good choice. | 05:28 |
| tohuw | DouglasK: What service is running on that port? sudo netstat -lnp | grep 50022 | 05:29 |
| Adie | :/ | 05:30 |
| Adie | hi | 05:30 |
| DouglasK | tohuw, that shows no output | 05:30 |

| tohuw | !best > aMoniker | 05:31 |
| ubottu | aMoniker, please see my private message | 05:31 |
| DouglasK | tohuw: also, even tho I've set a firewall on the router to block it, I'm still seeing what looks like new connections from that addy | 05:32 |
| aMoniker | tohuw: I demand speed. | 05:32 |
| aMoniker | tohuw: Also... | 05:33 |
| qin | aMoniker: ftp is low quality in general, for own purpose use sshfs, commercialy web upload or ssh | 05:33 |
| aMoniker | !hi > tohuw | 05:33 |
| qin | aMoniker: or rsync | 05:33 |
| aMoniker | qin: "Hey everyone, I need a banana, which brand is good?" | 05:33 |
| HasArrived | strange thing happened. I powered down my ubuntu pc with a usb hd plugged in. The open folder is now after booting a strange file with 0 byte and all the files inside the folder are missing. What can i do about that? | 05:33 |
| tohuw | DouglasK: blocking by IP is ultimately futile. It is best to determine what the intruders are doing and how to prevent the extraneous connections. | 05:33 |
| aMoniker | qin: "You don't want bananas - you want apples. They're great." | 05:33 |
| qin | !ftp | aMoniker | 05:34 |
| ubottu | aMoniker: FTP clients: Nautilus (Places -> Connect to server), gFTP, FileZilla (for !GNOME); Konqueror, Kasablanca, KFTPGrabber (for !KDE); FireFTP (for Firefox); ftp, lftp (for !cli) - See also !FTPd | 05:34 |

| DouglasK | tohuw: *nod* I suspect it's a dictionary attack, which is hopeless against my sshd instance as it doesn't allow password logins. | 05:34 |
| clcto | doesnt filezilla have a daemon | 05:35 |
| tohuw | DouglasK: Is 50022 a valid, expected SSH port on your server? | 05:35 |
| DouglasK | No. | 05:36 |
| aMoniker | tohuw: Oh, there's no !hi | 05:36 |
| aMoniker | !ping > tohuw | 05:36 |
| ubottu | tohuw, please see my private message | 05:36 |
| DouglasK | tohuw, nope ... my sshd there runs on the standard port 22 only. I have a backup to another server, but not on port 50022. | 05:37 |
| tohuw | DouglasK: Is your server in front of your router? Why was a request to 50022 allowed to open an SSH listener on that port? | 05:38 |
| DouglasK | tohuw, the local port on that line is port 22, the 50022 was on the *.hichina.com address side. | 05:38 |
| DouglasK | the server is behind the router, not in a DMZ. | 05:38 |
| tohuw | DouglasK: Ah, I just went back and saw that now. X_X Sorry. Anyway, sounds like a non-event, as you said. If they persist, set up a honeypot! :D | 05:39 |
| qin | DouglasK: knockd and fail2ban will reduce chinese traffic on ssh tenfold | 05:40 |
| DouglasK | tohuw, I reckon that as long as they don't hit a vulnerability in the sshd, I'm safe, unless they've got their hands on my private key. :) | 05:41 |
| DouglasK | qin, making notes of that for tomorrow. going to bed shortly here. | 05:41 |
| becom33 | is there way I can create complete backup with my data and format the whole disk and build the system from that backup | 05:45 |
| somsip | becom33: to what aim? | 05:48 |
| switching | is lubuntu pronounced loo bun tu or el ubuntu | 05:51 |
| becom33 | i wanted install mac osx just for experiment . I can't risk my data or my install OS . i've been using this OS for past 2 years without any issues | 05:52 |
| clcto | its not pronounced | 05:52 |
| becom33 | and I have like tonz of softwares and custom scripts I wrote to get my work easy | 05:52 |
| switching | clcto so what do i tell people when they ask what linux distro is running on the comp im putting lubuntu on? | 05:53 |
| somsip | becom33: then dd will make a perfect copy as a disk img. Or clonezilla | 05:53 |
| tohuw | !backup | becom33 | 05:53 |
| ubottu | becom33: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning | 05:53 |

| clcto | ubuntu with lxde | 05:53 |
| switching | clcto hahaha ok :) | 05:53 |
| clcto | or just ubuntu | 05:53 |
| somsip | becom33: that sentence makes no sense | 05:53 |
| becom33 | tohuw, I tried this Remastersys to backup | 05:53 |
| clcto | there is no difference | 05:53 |
| clcto | except DE | 05:53 |
| clcto | default DE | 05:54 |
| becom33 | but it says cannot create back up disk because the data size is bigger than expected somthing like that | 05:54 |

| becom33 | Guest94655, I dont think connect to IRC with ur root is a good idea | 05:55 |
| somsip | !root | Guest94655 | 05:55 |
| ubottu | Guest94655: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 05:55 |
| somsip | !rootirc | Guest94655 | 05:55 |
| ubottu | Guest94655: It's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet. | 05:55 |
| clcto | sudo passwd root, then its easy to guess, because you set it | 05:55 |
| Guest94655 | tks | 05:56 |

| clcto | ffio: sure, but there is ubuntu server edition | 06:41 |
| ffio | clcto: in that which one is should go for 13.04 or 12.04 ? | 06:42 |
| clcto | w/e you feel like. if you are going to dist upgrade, then 13.04, but if you want to keep one for a long time, go for the LTS | 06:43 |
| luis_1978 | Ubuntu server starts with terminal, yes? | 06:43 |
| luis_1978 | Then you can add the graphic X windows later | 06:44 |
| aeon-ltd | yes | 06:44 |
| aeon-ltd | it's very sparse | 06:44 |
| unknown_had | how I may redirect people inside my network with difference in port number | 06:44 |
| clcto | luis_1978: thats better anyway :) | 06:44 |
| unknown_had | id someone enter IP:port then redirect him to 1.1.1.1:port | 06:44 |
| unknown_had | and if someone come with IP:port2 then redirect o 2.2.2.2:port2 | 06:45 |
| luis_1978 | Yes but more easy to learn if you are new in Linux with graphic interface | 06:45 |
| luis_1978 | because you can find better the information navigating the web | 06:45 |
| ffio | clcto: :) | 06:46 |
| luis_1978 | I would recommend 2 methods for novice | 06:46 |
| clcto | luis_1978: just install links or lynx and then you can navigate the web :) | 06:47 |
| luis_1978 | 1 you hace two computers, one with graphic interface started and the other without | 06:47 |

| DJones | thunder1212: There's quite a few IRC apps in the PLay market, I've used yaaic and I think another is AndroIRC, you should just need to install them and then set them to connect to the freenode network, people in #freenode should be able to help you sort that out | 08:34 |

| histo | unknown_had: is the other interface in /etc/network/interfaces | 09:15 |
| unknown_had | nope | 09:15 |
| unknown_had | histo: if I vi this then it's just showing 1 interface eth0 | 09:15 |

| unknown_had | I did ifconfig eth0 down and up for eth0 and 1 | 09:16 |

| unknown_had | respectively | 09:16 |

| unknown_had | 1st one is vi /etc/network/interfaces and another one is ifconfig | 09:19 |
| histo | unknown_had: both interfaces are up. So i'm not sure what you are talking about unmanaged? | 09:20 |
| unknown_had | it's showing unmanaged in my network-manager | 09:20 |
| unknown_had | and I am not be able to change IP via network-manager | 09:21 |
| unknown_had | histo: ^ | 09:21 |
| unknown_had | and if you going to take a close look then I have provided different IP for both of the interfaces | 09:21 |
| somsip | ak5: is it installed at all? locate mkvirtualenv migth help | 09:21 |
| unknown_had | but it's not showing that in ifconfig output | 09:21 |
| histo | unknown_had: because the interfaces are defined in /etc/network/interfaces network manager isn't managing them | 09:21 |
| unknown_had | histo: ok so how come I may make network manager to manage all this and why my ifconfig is not showing the proper result? | 09:22 |
| histo | unknown_had: remove the eth0 and eth1 from /etc/network/interfaces and let network manager do the rest | 09:23 |

| wadie | I have an internet connection problem | 09:24 |

| handuel | I want to edit the files within gedit, however gedit is using a syntax highlighter that causes it to crash | 09:34 |
| dr_willis | handuel: so you want to reset gedits settings back to defaults | 09:35 |
| handuel | That would sort it yes | 09:35 |

| Katafalk_ | is there some easy way to create a .deb package from a pip installation ? | 11:47 |
| Guest62662 | Hi, I wonder in the desktop app Transmission, there is a possibility to run a bash script when download is finished. My questions is, is there any script download page somewhere? I can write basic things in bash myself, but I am not good at it. I would like to remove torrent after 15 minutes its finished, and automaticly put the file into new folders depending on directory name and file typ. Like if its video, it should goto /home/ | 11:49 |

| Guest62662 | anyone? :) | 11:59 |
| brotherBox | matanya, sort whatever? | 12:00 |
| matanya | brotherBox: what do you want to sort? | 12:01 |
| somsip | Guest62662: there is a 'Call script when the torrent is completed' so it looks possible | 12:01 |
| brotherBox | matanya, look at this snippet: http://pastebin.com/nQY0tH8Y | 12:02 |
| schnuffle | Guest62662: inotify gives you the possibility to observe changes in the file system | 12:02 |
| brotherBox | A backup of deja-dup/duplicity messed up and I have to restore it manually. No big deal in general | 12:02 |
| brotherBox | But I'd like to extract the files in order. But as you see, sort sees the vol1000 file as the first one | 12:03 |
| === guest9600 is now known as harish | ||
| histo | brotherBox: what's the problem it looks like it's sorting properly | 12:03 |
| matanya | 1000<1001 | 12:03 |
| brotherBox | But 1 < 1000, and I want it to show 1 as the first one. | 12:03 |
| Guest62662 | somsip: Yes I know, I just do not understand HOW to make the script. Best would be if there is something out there already. | 12:04 |
| histo | brotherBox: ls -t | 12:04 |
| histo | brotherBox: or -c | 12:04 |
| Guest62662 | schnuffle: Like, if appear new folder in /home/user I can decide if I want to move it or not? But I guess I cannot do it while torrent is active? | 12:04 |
| histo | brotherBox: actually ls -v would probably sort it jsut fine for you. | 12:05 |
| somsip | Guest62662: Two starters https://forum.transmissionbt.com/viewtopic.php?t=10364 https://trac.transmissionbt.com/browser/trunk/extras/send-email-when-torrent-done.sh | 12:05 |
| Guest62662 | schnuffle: I am thinkin like InternetDownloadManager, which automaticly group downloads depending on mime-type. | 12:05 |
| schnuffle | Guest62662: http://pyinotify.sourceforge.net/#Brief_Tutorial gives you some explanation it's using python | 12:05 |
| brotherBox | histo, neither of those have the desired effect. -t only reverses the output (which is actually less useful than what I already have) and -c is only a combination of lt | 12:05 |
| Guest62662 | somsip: Thanks :) | 12:06 |
| histo | brotherBox: don't pipe the output to sort... just use ls -v | 12:06 |
| brotherBox | histo, you are right. -v is wonderful | 12:06 |
| histo | brotherBox: that enables version numbering sorting within the name | 12:06 |

| Guest62662 | somsip: Also it would be awesome to be able to stream video while downloading it. I miss that from uTorrent, even though it was not particularly good. | 12:07 |
| kenzo450D | how do i fix it? | 12:08 |
| kenzo450D | I even tried apt-get -f install but with the same result. | 12:08 |
| somsip | Guest62662: not one we can help you with here | 12:08 |
| schnuffle | kenzo450D: have you updated your repo before installing? | 12:08 |
| kenzo450D | schnuffle: updated my repo as in? | 12:09 |
| schnuffle | kenzo450D: as in sudo aptitude update | 12:09 |
| Guest62662 | somsip: I know KTorrent has on KDE. Oh maybe I should try it out. I just do not like to install QT wrappers. But Ubuntu will be rewritten in QT later on, right? | 12:09 |
| kenzo450D | schnuffle: no, that I didn't :( | 12:09 |
| schnuffle | kenzo450D: try that, could be that there's a new update and so installing the version in your repo isn't existing anymore | 12:10 |
| brotherBox | histo, is there any way to "extend" that into a regular expression? | 12:10 |
| madghost|2 | hi all | 12:10 |
| kenzo450D | schnuffle: doing that. :) but got this error there | 12:11 |
| kenzo450D | W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/awstools-dev/awstools/ubuntu/dists/raring/main/binary-i386/Packages: 404 Not Found E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead. E: Couldn't rebuild package cache | 12:11 |
| brotherBox | Something like cat [1-5] ? It never works for numbers over 9 here | 12:11 |
| madghost|2 | where I can find linux-kernel in Ubuntu after apt-get install linux-kernel ? | 12:11 |
| brotherBox | /boot I'd say | 12:11 |
| somsip | Guest62662: no idea about the rewrite in QT. Maybe you're confusing the distro (ubuntu) for the default window manager (unity) | 12:11 |
| madghost|2 | where I can have to make config after install the linux-kernel? | 12:12 |
| histo | brotherBox: what is it you are ultimately trying to do with the files? | 12:12 |
| schnuffle | kenzo450D: so you have installed a PPA which doesn'T exist anymore | 12:12 |
| schnuffle | kenzo450D: the latest release for that PPA is quantal | 12:13 |
| kenzo450D | schnuffle: that I do not know much of, all that I did was to install perl DBI, after this I get these errors. | 12:13 |
| brotherBox | histo, this is for a slightly different, but related purpose. The effect of un-taring the difftar files is, that I have a bunch of numbered files which, when cat'd in the right order (duh) render the "original" file. | 12:13 |
| madghost|2 | I've found it ) /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` | 12:14 |
| brotherBox | I have not found out how to manage that with ls -v as ls -v | cat only prints the filenames and ls -v | cat * cat's the files in the "wrong" order. | 12:15 |
| schnuffle | kenzo450D: did you do a distupgrade to raring? | 12:15 |
| histo | brotherBox: so why not use find whatever -exec do blah + | 12:15 |
| KyouReeus4nfo | Wireshark is not upgraded yet. I tried backports. | 12:15 |
| kenzo450D | schnuffle: I do not remember exactly, but probably I did it, to install some packages in raring. | 12:16 |
| kenzo450D | schnuffle: *from raring. | 12:16 |
| brotherBox | histo, because I dont see how find sorts the files, beginning at 1/the smallest number | 12:16 |
| brotherBox | A short test with the syntax you suggested shows that it doesnt sort the files. | 12:16 |
| Guest62662 | somsip: No I am not. I heard from devs saying they will abandon Wayland and Unity. Rewrite a new window handler, dump GTK and Unity completly as favor for QT framework. QUite ironic though, because they kicked out Kubuntu from Canoncial officially and then they want to make QT instead of using KDE which already is QT :P | 12:16 |

| grimeton | what does one have todo to make grub-set-default working on raring? | 15:33 |
| cariveri | MonkeyDust: yes. when it changed to "being busy" then a "thinker" was shown. I remembere this from win 3.11 I think, not sure. ther emust be something similar. | 15:34 |

| Downbeam | hi does anyone know how to watch netflix with ubuntu? | 15:37 |
| grimeton | yeah, that's what i thought | 15:38 |
| grimeton | i bet it never worked | 15:38 |
| Downbeam | grimeton, you talking to me? | 15:39 |
| adamk | Downbeam: This worked for me: http://www.howtogeek.com/130372/how-to-watch-netflix-on-ubuntu-with-the-netflix-desktop-app/ | 15:41 |
| rewarp | grimeton: Any problems with following this guide? https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/legacy/Invoking-grub_002dset_002ddefault.html | 15:41 |
| grimeton | rewarp: i'm talking about the grub-set-default that ubuntu provides | 15:42 |
| grimeton | rewarp: not some vanilla stuff, that would be to easy | 15:42 |
| rewarp | grimeton: Have you tried using Grub Customizer? | 15:44 |
| grimeton | rewarp: no - what's that? | 15:44 |
| rewarp | It easily allows one to edit grub or burg settings through a GUI. | 15:44 |
| rewarp | http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-grub-customizer-in-ubuntu-13-04.html | 15:44 |
| grimeton | rewarp: no gui here, sorry | 15:45 |
| grimeton | rewarp: if i follow the ubuntu guide and the manual page it *SHOULD* work | 15:45 |
| rewarp | I never had to bother with grub configs after installing it. | 15:45 |
| grimeton | but it looks like grub doesn't even care about the settings that have been changed and just does what it thinks is best | 15:45 |
| fluffybunnyuk_ | hi anyone know the best cure for a no screens found problem? | 15:45 |
| grimeton | it didn't work in 12.10, 12.04 ... why should it work in raring ... | 15:45 |
| rewarp | grimeton: Were your settings erased after editting them? Or did they simply fail to work? Which file were you editting? | 15:46 |
| grimeton | rewarp: it's about booting a different kernel than the first one in the list | 15:47 |
| grimeton | rewarp: using grub-set-default | 15:47 |
| grimeton | following the manual page (which points to a tex document that is exactly the same), i just have to use the title | 15:47 |
| grimeton | doing this, i get an error when running grub-mkconfig that i shouldn't use the title anymore and use a class instead | 15:48 |
| grimeton | doing this, which also modifies /boot/grub/grubenv still doesn't solve the problem | 15:48 |

| mojtaba | Should I run any command to organize the OS regularly, like those in windows (windows registry cleaner, windows cleaner, optimizer, ...)? | 15:49 |
| rewarp | motjaba: Nope. You only need to clean the cache once in a while. | 15:50 |
| rewarp | grimeton: Have you tried editting the 40_custom file directly? | 15:50 |
| grimeton | rewarp: what for? | 15:50 |
| ro9 | what should i do with .goutputstream-XXXXX files | 15:52 |
| rewarp | Since grub2 's config is a product of various scripts, editting the file grub.cfg would mean the settings will be reset. | 15:52 |
| grimeton | rewarp: noone edited /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 15:52 |
| rewarp | You can specify custom settings with the 40_custom file which will write the settings into grub.cfg. | 15:52 |
| grimeton | great and ubuntu.com is down too | 15:53 |
| grimeton | rewarp: the idea behind grub-set-default is that one does not need to touch those config files | 15:53 |
| rewarp | grimeton: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 15:53 |
| john_rambo | Bluetooth dongle is detected but it cant detect my phone | 15:53 |

| slax0r | hi, kak se v ubuntu serverju pogleda katera verzija laufa? | 15:55 |
| Lightz | hi. is apparmor only used for applications or can i also set read write and execute rules for files an directories? thanks | 15:55 |
| grimeton | rewarp: read the manual page of grub-set-default, and check /etc/default/grub for the "GRUB_DEFAULT=" line and its meanings | 15:55 |
| grimeton | Lightz: how should that work? | 15:55 |
| slax0r | gah, wrong channel, sorry | 15:55 |
| grimeton | Lightz: you can define which application can read/write which file(s) | 15:56 |
| grimeton | based on the apps name and the user it runs under | 15:56 |
| Lightz | grimeton: ok. thank you. | 15:56 |
| Lightz | grimeton: selinux works the same? | 15:56 |
| grimeton | Lightz: you can run into trouble if you try to access a file outside the path(s)/file(s) that have been added to the apps config off app_armor | 15:56 |
| grimeton | Lightz: the approach is the same, same as grsecurity ... | 15:57 |

| [nas]peter | KVM over IP | 16:12 |
| grimeton | yeah, that's a local connection ... | 16:12 |
| [nas]peter | allows you to control the dedicated server from wherever you are | 16:12 |
| [nas]peter | not necessarily | 16:12 |
| grimeton | yousaf: so you are in front of the machine | 16:12 |
| yousaf | suphttp://www.supermicro.co.uk/products/accessories/addon/SIM.cfm | 16:12 |
| grimeton | yousaf: press ctrl+alt+delete to reboot the server, when it comes up again interrupt grub and select the entry you want to boot with the up/down keys | 16:12 |
| grimeton | yousaf: but don't press enter, press "e" instead | 16:12 |
| grimeton | yousaf: then select the kernel line, remove any init= commands in that line and add at the end: init=/bin/bash | 16:13 |

| grimeton | yousaf: then it reboots and the password you entered will be the root password | 16:14 |
| grimeton | yousaf: problem solved | 16:14 |
| yousaf | grimeton but I get a black screen when i launch the kvm viewer | 16:14 |
| grimeton | yousaf: yeah, the kvm needs some time to adjust, but you should be able to press up/down keys or the escape key even while you are not seeing anything | 16:14 |
| grimeton | yousaf: yeah, that's the screensaver - press space or something and you will see the console | 16:14 |
| grimeton | yousaf: the important part is: the system will be rebooted and you have to be aware of this | 16:15 |
| yousaf | right i can see the screen now | 16:15 |
| yousaf | but its asking me to login | 16:15 |

| YokoBR | guys, please.. i have a HP G42 laptop, and it's shutting down because of the overheating.... Just installed a fresh install of ubuntu. | 16:17 |
| grimeton | esperegu: gpt can be a bit tricky ... i guess you have to work your way through this by hand or get professional help | 16:18 |
| Ari-Yang | YokoBR, maybe the laptop is old?... | 16:18 |
| YokoBR | Ari-Yang, 2 yr old. | 16:18 |
| esperegu | grimeton: :-( | 16:18 |
| YokoBR | So i just can't use linux on it. | 16:18 |
| Ari-Yang | perhaps a cooling-pad (laptop fan), YokoBR? | 16:19 |
| esperegu | grimeton: I don't get it. its a (k)ubuntu only install and I just upgraded. | 16:19 |

| yousaf | not in linux | 16:19 |

| Ari-Yang | what drivers are you using? open-source or proprietary? | 16:20 |

| Ari-Yang | not sure what else you can do YokoBR :V maybe try out lubuntu? | 16:21 |
| Ari-Yang | !lubuntu | 16:21 |
| ubottu | lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. | 16:21 |
| Ari-Yang | it's a light weight OS based on Ubuntu, here's a link http://lubuntu.net/ | 16:21 |
| seronis | YokoBR: a friend of mine fixes tons of laptops and other things for people. Nearly all overheating issues end up being either bad airflow and dust builds up inside it which means you can just open it up and blow it out | 16:21 |
| seronis | YokoBR: or the thermal paste was crap and just using a new coat fixes it | 16:22 |
| Ari-Yang | when was the last time you cleaned your laptop? | 16:22 |

| py_can | i commented 'GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=15' in /etc/default/grub | 16:25 |
| py_can | how can i add a grub item for /dev/sda2? | 16:25 |
| seronis | YokoBR: 'industrial blower' is extreme overkill and if you just did this last week you might have damaged the bearings in your fan. Find a friend who is comfortable messing with tech who will open it up, check your fans, and put a new coat of thermal paste as needed | 16:25 |
| YokoBR | seronis, i didn't. It was fine running Window$ yesterday. I just set it to a lower power. | 16:27 |
| daz646 | n #ubuntu | 16:27 |
| YokoBR | The biggest problem is that i have hybrid graphics. | 16:27 |
| YokoBR | so the open source drivers only enable the onboard gpu, wich is a legacy HD 4250, when i have an offboard Gpu, HD 6310 | 16:28 |
| seronis | YokoBR: disable your onboard in the bios so that the OSS drivers have no choice in what to use | 16:28 |
| YokoBR | seronis, it's a muxless hybrid laptop. So i can't disable it on bios. | 16:29 |

| YokoBR | how can i download xubuntu 12.04, not 12.04.1 | 16:37 |
| seronis | mojtaba: 1 month of using xubuntu here.. so far what i've figured out is apt-get handles any cleaning you need to do. use apt-get purge instead of apt-get remove if you want it to delete settings info | 16:37 |
| Ari-Yang | YokoBR, why Xubuntu and not lubuntu? | 16:37 |
| Ari-Yang | !xubuntu | 16:37 |

| adamk | Oh, looks like you got an answer already :-) | 17:02 |
| hacktus0 | Can you help me please. I forget my pass root | 17:02 |
| hacktus0 | ? | 17:02 |
| hacktus0 | Can you help me please. I forget my pass root | 17:02 |
| SolarisB1y | yea julie29 there is probably a more accurate way to find whatever your looking for but that will do it too - but if you explain a little what you want more people can help ya | 17:02 |
| julie29 | adamk: yes, sorry | 17:03 |
| julie29 | SolarisB1y: no, you helped me a lot. i found just what i was looking for! | 17:03 |
| SolarisB1y | cool beans ;> | 17:03 |
| julie29 | another question: how do i save changes to a file that needs special permissions? | 17:03 |
| seronis | julie29: one thing to keep in mind is linux uses a different file organization than Windows. So 'find files' isnt very specific. Binaries (executables) go in a different place than documents. Plugins are usually installed in a similar place as configuration files which are in the users home directory | 17:03 |
| handuel | hacktus0: you set a root password? Not clever, or do you mean your only sudo account | 17:03 |
| bazhang | hacktus0, there is no root pass | 17:04 |
| julie29 | seronis: thanks and sorry for yelling at you :) | 17:04 |
| SolarisB1y | julie29: what type of file and do you mean it's owned by another user so you need to use sudo to modify it? | 17:04 |
| genii-around | hacktus0: There is no root password. Ubuntu uses sudo instead to root-type things | 17:04 |
| YokoBR | julie29, caps lock means yelling on the internet :B | 17:04 |
| YokoBR | lol | 17:04 |
| SolarisB1y | julie29: if the case is the latter - just open the file in an editor that was started with privileges and save it the same way - 'sudo vim' 'gksudo gedit' | 17:04 |
| julie29 | SolarisB1y: no, i'm the only user, and this is what it says "you don't have the permissions to save the file!" | 17:04 |
| SolarisB1y | julie29: what file/ where is it? | 17:05 |
| handuel | hacktus0: to reset a password boot into recovery mode (hold shift at boot to access grub menu), then select remount file systems from the menu, and then select root terminal, and type passwd USERNAMETORESETPASSSWORDFOR | 17:05 |
| DocPlatypus | hacktus0: and if you really need a root shell, 'sudo -s' but that's advised against | 17:05 |
| SolarisB1y | julie29: under the same pretense the file may be in a location not writeable by your user (theres always more users than 1 on linux - or should be) | 17:05 |
| julie29 | SolarisB1y: give me a minute | 17:05 |
| SolarisB1y | julie29: so under the same solution use sudo or gksudo to elevate your privs | 17:05 |
| SolarisB1y | ok. | 17:05 |
| seronis | julie29: the file wasnt opened with the proper permissions so its in read-only mode. close it out and reopen as solar suggested (gksudo gedit [filename]) | 17:06 |
| julie29 | seronis: yes, hold on :) | 17:06 |
| SolarisB1y | lol | 17:06 |
| hacktus0 | handuel I did it but it write sorry /etc/shadow is lock | 17:07 |
| seronis | SolarisB1y: btw, any idea how I can get 'gksudo gedit' to stop opening a dummy untitled doc ? | 17:07 |
| SolarisB1y | seronis: pass the document name you want to open as an argument to it | 17:07 |
| seronis | yup.. do that. and it opens properly | 17:07 |
| SolarisB1y | hrmm weird | 17:07 |
| julie29 | SolarisB1y: seronis: it worked! thanks! :) | 17:07 |
| seronis | AND a 2nd tab is also created with an unsaved untitled doc | 17:07 |
| handuel | seronis: it's a none bug, gnome team refuse to fix it | 17:08 |
| SolarisB1y | if there isn't an option that sounds like a bug seronis | 17:08 |
| === BTCOxygen is now known as Guest19346 | ||
| === BTCOxygen|1 is now known as BTCOxygen | ||
| SolarisB1y | atleast imho.. | 17:08 |
| SolarisB1y | seronis: meaning if there isn't some CLI arg to make it stop that - sounds buggish behaviour | 17:08 |
| seronis | handuel: oddly enough if i 'forget' to use gksudo and just use sudo, gedit will yell at me but not open a 2nd window | 17:08 |
| handuel | seronis: apparently "they don't design gnome apps to be run as root" | 17:08 |
| julie29 | SolarisB1y: yet another question... i got a warning message in terminal and i accidently closed the terminal window before reading it. how can i get it back? | 17:08 |
| handuel | seronis: if you use "gksudo gksudo gedit" it also doens't happen, I've just got an alias set up for gksudo-gedit | 17:09 |
| SolarisB1y | julie29: depends on where the message came from. Was it a reply to some command? if so you could recreate by retyping the command in a new terminal | 17:09 |
| seronis | handuel: that.. .. *facepalms* | 17:09 |
| SolarisB1y | julie29: ofcourse you should filter whatever it is- like you dont want to do dangerous things twice and thrice =) | 17:09 |
| SolarisB1y | julie29: depending on your history setup you may be able to type 'history' and get a clue as to what you did | 17:10 |
| seronis | handuel: didnt know that would fix it.. now time to edit my bashrc | 17:10 |
| julie29 | SolarisB1y: i guess it was after using "sudo ghex", but i tried it again and no warning | 17:10 |
| SolarisB1y | possible | 17:10 |
| handuel | seronis: don't know why the gnome team can't be bothered to patch it, I mean it's not like anyone ever wants to use a gui tool to edit files as root | 17:10 |
| seronis | but i think i'll just use gkedit for the alias | 17:10 |
| SolarisB1y | vim works for me | 17:11 |
| SolarisB1y | brb | 17:11 |
| julie29 | now for a question i'm almost too scared to ask: why is the a text document in my home folder named "cracked"? :/ | 17:11 |
| seronis | SolarisB1y: wasd and ijkl navigation in text files doesnt work with my brain | 17:11 |
| seronis | julie29: no idea. what text file ? | 17:11 |
| julie29 | seronis: in home, there's an empty text file named "cracked" :/ | 17:12 |
| handuel | julie29: Just delete it, it can't do anything | 17:13 |
| julie29 | handuel: but why is it there? | 17:13 |
| handuel | julie29: when did you first notice it? | 17:13 |
| seronis | something you installed created it. you have a bittorrent copy of a paid program maybe? | 17:13 |
| julie29 | seronis: no, installed ubuntu earlier today :) | 17:14 |

| julie29 | seronis: the whole point of me installing ubuntu was to "feel safer", so i would never do that | 17:14 |
| handuel | julie29, have you run any scripts recently | 17:15 |
| DocPlatypus | vinu: you need to check the filesystem like it says before trying to mount it | 17:15 |
| julie29 | handuel: some basic terminal commands, but no scripts? :/ | 17:15 |
| seronis | julie29: well its safely ignorable. its likely the output file of something you have run. if its empty dont worry about it | 17:15 |
| vinu | no problem with filesystem | 17:15 |
| seronis | and a lot of terminal commands can be scripts | 17:15 |
| handuel | julie29: and from the terminal what is the output of lsof $HOME/cracked | 17:16 |

| julie29 | handuel: let me check | 17:16 |
| julie29 | handuel: it just returns with user@PC:~$ | 17:16 |

| BobJonkman | Thanx handuel! I've been trying uparrow, ALT+uparrow, PageUp, &c. The screen moves up about 10% then falls down again, so I thought I might not be holding them down long enough, or something. | 17:28 |

| === MartinS is now known as Guest64735 | ||
| llutz | zephyr28: it won't be fun and you need some spare space on a disk: tar all your data into one big tar-archive (tar cf mydata.tar /100G-of-data). Then split that archive in chunks to fit on dvd-r (split -b 4470m -d mydata.tar). Burn those files to dvd-r. | 17:37 |
| zephyr28 | llutz, hmm, I suppose that could work | 17:38 |
| llutz | zephyr28: easier to buy a xxTB harddisk and copy the backup-data to it. dvd isn't really usefull to backup huge amounts of data | 17:39 |
| BobJonkman | OK, I've borrowed a mouse, clicked on a name, and now I get the password entry field. I press ESCape, and there's an outline indicating focus. | 17:39 |
| BobJonkman | But there seems to be no way to get focus on the login screen without using a mouse. | 17:40 |
| llutz | zephyr28: and since dvd are organic, i wouldn't store anything valuable on it for a long time | 17:40 |
| BobJonkman | This looks to be the GNOME login screen, not the Unity login screen... | 17:40 |

| MonkeyDust | nsfx ask in #ubuntu-kernel | 18:10 |
| zheoffec | nsfx: install it with `dpkg -i *.deb`? | 18:10 |
| zheoffec | * = .deb file | 18:11 |
| DarthExpeditor | zheoffec, I generally don't look for things in the GUI | 18:11 |
| DarthExpeditor | I checked for it in a terminal window. And yes I checked all the hidden files. | 18:11 |
| flintser | zheoffec: i mean that the space is full. i make /data for big files and stuff like that, and / is for else | 18:11 |

| Atlantic777 | It's lubuntu 12.04. | 18:35 |
| Atlantic777 | And windows 7 ultimate. During intsallation, lubuntu installer asks me if I want to import some user preferences from windows (bookmarks etc) but there's not windows entry in grub. | 18:35 |
| flintser | the guide installs a new 12.04 ubuntu server. you can use parts of the guide for example setting up LAMP if you have a os installed already. you can do this with gui or desktop versions also. but i recommend following the guide from beginning if you arent so experienced amd want to setup a server. | 18:35 |

| pikaro | hi! is there a quick way to get a bootable ubuntu installation stick when I'm using debian? I'm only finding tons of automatic tools for windows, ubuntu's own start disk creator and manual methods for other linux systems. a friend of mine asked me to give him a stick that installs ubuntu, and I'd be glad if there was a surefire method. | 19:24 |
| SolarisB1y | pikaro: debootstrap. | 19:24 |
| pikaro | ok thanks will look into that :) | 19:24 |
| sardar_khalsa | just installed skype.... | 19:25 |

| CLI-ubuntist | How can I boot from CD into command-line mode? | 19:25 |
| King-Kong | Hello ! | 19:25 |
| SolarisB1y | pikaro: there is another one called live-build - and then you can make that stick a device root in KVM and run a normal OS install like that also - | 19:25 |
| SolarisB1y | pikaro: so thats 3 ways | 19:25 |
| DexterF | CLI-ubuntist: ubuntu server. special image | 19:25 |
| SolarisB1y | pikaro: you may be interested in looking at live-build if your on debian, it's available for ubuntu but it's maintained by teh debian folks | 19:25 |
| pikaro | strange that those aren't mentioned on ubuntu's own help page | 19:26 |
| SolarisB1y | ^^ | 19:26 |
| SolarisB1y | i know debootstrap is a debian util as well | 19:26 |
| CLI-ubuntist | Is there other differences between the Regular Image and the Server Image other than the GUI? | 19:26 |
| SolarisB1y | i guess most people dont generally use it on the user end | 19:26 |
| SolarisB1y | i do a lot of build out automation so these are inseperable for me | 19:26 |
| pikaro | ok, I'll just see which is easier to use. thanks again :) | 19:27 |

| matanya | iPenguin: you can use the 64bit | 19:30 |
| sardar_khalsa | any resolution guys? | 19:30 |
| matanya | elisa87: it is a lib, not a file | 19:30 |
| matanya | sardar_khalsa: what is your problem? | 19:30 |
| MonkeyDust | lib means library | 19:30 |
| SolarisB1y | elisa87: and it should be in the Library path | 19:30 |
| SolarisB1y | elisa87: it probably isn't and thats likely the root of the warning | 19:30 |
| IdleOne | elisa87: lib32gomp1or lib64gomp1 if you installed 64 bit ubuntu | 19:31 |

| Afteraffekt | SolarisB1y, http://i.imgur.com/eCdOZp6.jpg | 19:31 |
| SolarisB1y | elisa87: you shouldn't | 19:31 |
| SolarisB1y | especially if it was built from two diff GCC's elisa87 | 19:32 |
| elisa87 | SolarisB1y: do you know what is the name of the lib? that is related to -lgomp flag? | 19:32 |
| matanya | elisa87: most likely you can't and shouldn't | 19:32 |
| SolarisB1y | youll find odd errors if it does happen to work - | 19:32 |
| SolarisB1y | elisa87: yea IdleOne posted it i believe | 19:32 |
| SolarisB1y | IdleOne ) elisa87: lib32gomp1or lib64gomp1 if you installed 64 bit ubuntu | 19:32 |
| SolarisB1y | installing one of thsoe should get it in your lib paths and available for the compilation your performing - | 19:33 |
| matanya | Afteraffekt: remove any usb or external source and try | 19:33 |
| SolarisB1y | matanya: yea thats what i was thinking also | 19:33 |
| Afteraffekt | matanya, the only extrernal is the drive i am booting from | 19:33 |
| SolarisB1y | i dont think there isn't a reason that could be it | 19:33 |
| matanya | Afteraffekt: so not suprising you can't boot | 19:33 |

| donavan01 | ok I have a really crazy idea here or at least it seems that way... let me know if it can be done... so I need to a wifi card in a machine I have and the signal isnt the greatest where I need to go with it but its not bad so my thought o overcome some of the issues was to use 802.11g or even b because of the distance its able to travel but that limits my bandwidth so I though "what if I can combine two of those cheapo usb adapters as one virtual connecti | 19:36 |
| donavan01 | on over two physical antennas (call it binding, trunking, whatever)" ... so whats everyones thought ... is this possible ? is it worth doing? | 19:36 |

| TheUsD | would gksudo vi /etc/hosts be acceptible for graphical editing? | 19:55 |
| TheUsD | graphical should have been GUI... | 19:56 |
| zykotick9 | TheUsD: use sudo for terminal applications (like vi), and gksudo for GUI apps. | 19:56 |

| Afteraffekt | SolarisB1y, matanya how can I get ubuntu to show me all the drives it can see, accessable or not | 19:57 |
| zykotick9 | TheUsD: sidenote, i'd strongly suggest installing vim, vim-tiny which is basically vi - lacks a lot of features | 19:57 |
| Afteraffekt | Like what is the terminal command again? | 19:57 |
| xan_it | help me http://pastebin.com/MZHZ0kfr i have always airplane mode ON. yesterday all works fine | 19:57 |
| seronis | Afteraffekt: is fdisk -l what you want ? | 19:57 |
| seronis | err sudo fdisk -l | 19:58 |
| zykotick9 | Afteraffekt: "sudo blkid" or "sudo parted -l" if you have GPT partitions | 19:58 |

| Afteraffekt | ah ok - that works, i can see my SSD drive but windows can not | 19:58 |
| battlehands | That guide that I posted asks be to create a link to the java bin file in /usr/local/java. Do I still need to do that step? It says that IMOD assumes that the .bin file is in that directory. | 19:59 |
| matanya | battlehands: won't harm, but most likely not needed | 19:59 |
| xan_it | matanya_ i have done it, in pastebin log there is when i push and the rfkill list output | 19:59 |
| seronis | Afteraffekt: even windows disk manager? i forget where to find that control panel but it can show unpartitioned/unformatted drives that are invisible to normal viewing | 19:59 |
| Afteraffekt | Serano, i cant see it in the windows installer | 20:00 |

| matanya | yes Afteraffekt | 20:02 |
| matanya | use gparted | 20:03 |
| matanya | xan_it: does the button have a led? | 20:03 |
| xan_it | i use ubuntu from 2006 and i report bug in launchpad, im not noob (at all) | 20:03 |

| xan_it | yes but are always on, if i press, nothing change | 20:04 |
| matanya | and btw xan_it my grama also uses ubuntu since 2006, but she has no clue under the hood : | 20:04 |
| xan_it | just in network manager i see "disabled hardware" or not | 20:04 |
| Afteraffekt | matanya, when i do check it gives an error, but doesnt show what happened. can i just try to format it clean? | 20:05 |

| Afteraffekt | I cant get into windows | 20:05 |

| xan_it | hp 635 | 20:09 |
| matanya | AnonAMouse: try to hibernate | 20:09 |
| AnonAMouse | There's no option in the top right menu to hibernate | 20:10 |
| matanya | xan_it: what wifi driver? | 20:10 |
| matanya | AnonAMouse: it was disabled by ubuntu | 20:10 |
| AnonAMouse | matanya Ah I'm reading the 'fix' article now | 20:11 |
| matanya | you can hibernate using the command sudo pm-hibernate | 20:11 |
| zykotick9 | AnonAMouse: fyi, swap partition must be slightly larger then physical RAM for hibernation to work. fyi2, ubuntu disables hibernation by default - not sure what steps need to be taken to re-enable it. good luck. | 20:11 |
| mterry | GunnarHj, hi :) | 20:11 |
| matanya | zykotick9: it is quite simple | 20:11 |
| GunnarHj | mterry: Hi again. | 20:11 |
| matanya | xan_it: do you know the wifi card? | 20:11 |
| AnonAMouse | My RAM size is 8GB. I almost always close all applications before going into hibernation. What size would you recommend? | 20:12 |
| xan_it | this is rebooting, when finish i put lspci | 20:12 |
| xan_it | its good? | 20:12 |
| matanya | AnonAMouse: 16GB | 20:12 |
| zykotick9 | AnonAMouse: well, 8.2GB would be safest... | 20:12 |
| GunnarHj | mterry: Maybe I'd better check out if dpkg can be run.. | 20:12 |
| MartynKeigher | if i run sudo shutodwn -r now from within a xrdp session i just get logged off...the server doesnt reboot | 20:13 |
| matanya | AnonAMouse: 2gb won't be enough for sure | 20:13 |
| GunnarHj | mterry: I tried apt-get, but that wasn't found. | 20:13 |
| MartynKeigher | any workaround, as i dont have access to the hypervisor level. just the ubuntu server vm. | 20:13 |
| AnonAMouse | matanya Even if all applications are closed? | 20:13 |
| mterry | GunnarHj, ah. I'm guessing nothing is mounted in your busybox | 20:13 |
| matanya | AnonAMouse: you never know :) | 20:13 |
| GunnarHj | mterry: That's what I fear, too. | 20:13 |
| mterry | GunnarHj, you may have to manually mount it | 20:14 |
| mterry | GunnarHj, do you know how to do that? | 20:14 |
| matanya | MartynKeigher: what happens if you call init 6? | 20:14 |
| GunnarHj | mterry: Not without googling around. Can you handhold me on that? | 20:14 |
| MartynKeigher | how do i do that ? | 20:14 |
| matanya | sudo init 6 | 20:14 |
| MartynKeigher | just init 6 at the terminal? | 20:14 |

| xan_it | fisically remove card and clean? | 20:16 |
| AnonAMouse | matanya What would happen if there wasn't enough swapspace? Would it just shutdown instead or freeze? | 20:17 |
| SolarisB1y | Uy_6u57av0_6u1d0: assuming your running Compiz you can try the "Place Windows" plugin | 20:17 |

I have installed it in a package with this contents: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5714627/ What am I missing? | 20:34 |
| lmat | I noticed that if I click the menu item, I don't have to specify a password to reboot, etc. But when I type "reboot" or "shutdown -r now", etc. in terminal, it requires super user privileges :( | 20:35 |
| SolarisB1y | diverdude: how are you running the program? | 20:35 |
| lmat | What does Gnome do to shutdown the computer? I suppose it all comes down to an API call, right? Do shutdown and gnome use a different API call to do their shutdown? | 20:35 |
| wildwind | n72567: login to console (Ctrl+Alt+F1), go to /var/log and read logs | 20:35 |
| SolarisB1y | lmat: i think it uses dbus | 20:36 |
| diverdude | SolarisB1y, directly from the commandline ./programname | 20:36 |
| matanya | correct lmat | 20:36 |
| lmat | diverdude: Usually you should create a symbolic link in this case. | 20:36 |
| lmat | SolarisB1y: Which? Shutdown or gnome? | 20:36 |
| diverdude | lmat, aha i see...from where to where? | 20:36 |
| SolarisB1y | lmat: the shutdown/reboot without password widget your referencing | 20:36 |
| lmat | diverdude: the link should be in /usr/lib perhaps and point to the file that you want. | 20:37 |
| matanya | lmat: gnome uses ibus | 20:37 |
| n72567 | which log? | 20:37 |
| lmat | diverdude: You basically need to put the so (or a link thereunto) on the so "path" (I forgot what it's called). | 20:37 |
| SolarisB1y | library path | 20:37 |
| lmat | matanya: How do I use ibus from the cmd line? | 20:37 |
| matanya | lmat: you don't | 20:38 |
| MrWayne | Greetings | 20:38 |
| genii-around | diverdude: Did you run something like sudo ldconfig after you installed those libraries? | 20:38 |
| lmat | matanya: :( but I could rewrite shutdown and reboot to use this, right? | 20:38 |
| wildwind | n72567: Xorg.0.log to begin with | 20:38 |
| matanya | yes lmat | 20:38 |
| SolarisB1y | you can use ldconfig and ld.so.conf.d directory to update the paths properly diverdude | 20:38 |
| diverdude | lmat, so ln -s /usr/local/lib64/libsoci_core.so.3.2 /usr/lib/libsoci_core.so.3.2 ? | 20:38 |
| SolarisB1y | no | 20:39 |
| lmat | diverdude: perhaps...I would defer to others, but this might work ^_^ | 20:39 |
| SolarisB1y | diverdude: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-setting-changing-library-path/ | 20:39 |
| SolarisB1y | read this and try it like that is the proper way | 20:39 |
| SolarisB1y | you can link but thats not as stable | 20:39 |
| n72567 | as i said other users can login to x so x is not a problem | 20:40 |
| n72567 | and it logs show no error | 20:40 |
| matanya | it is a problem for you | 20:40 |
| SolarisB1y | you want to try ldconfig -v |grep "/usr/local/lib64" if that path isn't there - add it in a file under /etc/ld.so.conf.d/mynelibpath.conf | 20:40 |
| SolarisB1y | and then run 'sudo ldconfig' | 20:40 |
| n72567 | sigh | 20:40 |
| SolarisB1y | the library should be available then | 20:40 |
| SolarisB1y | n72567: check auth.log? | 20:41 |
| SolarisB1y | n72567: is it just a default installation with a normal DM and login screen? or is this something highly customized? | 20:42 |
| n72567 | customized | 20:42 |

| bennypr0fane | hellopat, Will Gnome 3.6 or higher ever come to the repos of Ubuntu 12.04? I mean it is LTS, after all... | 20:43 |
| wildwind | n72567: OK, backup and clear user home (from another user's session) and test again | 20:43 |
| matanya | bennypr0fane: most likely no | 20:43 |
| bennypr0fane | I asked this at askubuntu.com, and got "This post does not meet our quality standards." What's up with that? It's a concise enough question... | 20:44 |
| SolarisB1y | bennypr0fane: id canonical deems it stable sure | 20:44 |
| SolarisB1y | if | 20:44 |
| matanya | bennypr0fane: to theoretical there | 20:44 |
| matanya | *too | 20:45 |
| wildwind | n72567: hope it's not 10GB+ home :) | 20:45 |
| SolarisB1y | the LTS is for things that should be stable - so if canonical feels 3.6 can be stably implemented and decides to add it - yes - if not no - ultimately it was probably not answered because it doesnt really have an answer | 20:45 |
| bennypr0fane | seems stable enouhg to me on other distro. I know 3.8 is not, but 3.6 hasn't crashed on me once. Also they've released a version of 12.10 and 13.04 each with 3.6 | 20:45 |
| SolarisB1y | right - but then your not canonical =) | 20:45 |
| SolarisB1y | and that system isn't ubuntu 12.04 LTS =) | 20:45 |
| bennypr0fane | SolarisB1y, right, completely fogrot about that | 20:46 |
| matanya | LTS are supposed to be rock solid bennypr0fane | 20:46 |
| SolarisB1y | ;> not tryna be a smarty pants but seriously its probably a long drawn out developer answer as to why thta you dont want to hear - at the least it's a long political update you dont want to here | 20:46 |
| bennypr0fane | I often wake up believing I'm Canonical :-) | 20:47 |
| SolarisB1y | ;> | 20:47 |
| matanya | better than waking up and believe you are microsoft bennypr0fane | 20:47 |
| matanya | or apple for the case | 20:47 |
| wilx_ | Hi. | 20:47 |
| bennypr0fane | are you saying stability standards are higher for LTS than for the other releases? | 20:47 |
| SolarisB1y | yes canonicals "standards" are higher there | 20:48 |
| tgm4883 | LTS has software that canonical is more comfortable providing support for in a longer term (eg. 5 years), whether that translates to better stability, IDK | 20:48 |
| SolarisB1y | good explanation tgm4883 | 20:48 |
| bennypr0fane | If Gnome 3.8 is already released, that means 3.4 is certainly not seeing any more improvements, is it? | 20:49 |
| SolarisB1y | bennypr0fane: that doesn't neccesarily mean that | 20:49 |
| bennypr0fane | or not even 3.6...? | 20:49 |
| SolarisB1y | bennypr0fane: also what you'll notice is a lot of times what happens is the devs at the distro your interested in are reviewing it and patching it the way they want IF they are looking to implement it - so a lot of other stuff is involved | 20:50 |
| bennypr0fane | I mean if the GNome team have released a newer version, why should they still fix things in older ones? | 20:50 |
| SolarisB1y | because its on their distro | 20:50 |
| === Guest63095 is now known as rclancy | ||
| SolarisB1y | this is a common thing - like how rhel still ships ruby 1.8.7 albeit it's patched by redhat to address teh security CVEs that make the ruby community ditch it for 1.9.x | 20:51 |
| bennypr0fane | ahammond, you mean the *Ubuntu* people will look after fixing whatever they use in that distro while it's already abandoned by the Gnome devs | 20:52 |
| AlexNagy | Why is everything always worse on Ubuntu? I used Ubuntu for nearly two years and never once saw anything actually improve. I have, however, seen Ubuntu make things worse. Could someone honestly answer my question? | 20:52 |

| SolarisB1y | AlexNagy: be specific... | 20:52 |
| yeats | AlexNagy: do you have a specific support question? | 20:52 |
| GunnarHj | mterry: Well, "mount /dev/sda6 /mnt" didn't work. Neither /dev/sda? nor /mnt is visible. | 20:52 |
| GunnarHj | I see at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+search?text=udev that udev isn't supposed to be available in saucy, which indicates that it's not that package that needs to be fixed anyway... | 20:52 |
| GunnarHj | Any other ideas, or should I prepare myself to install a fresh saucy? :( | 20:52 |
| ahammond | yeats: nah, he's trollin! :) | 20:53 |
| AlexNagy | Gnome 2 vs Unity, Gimp 2.6 vs. Gimp 2.8 (I don't see how you guys made Gimp worse, but you did), forcing a migration from OOo to LO. | 20:53 |
| SolarisB1y | ubuntu has improved loads over the years i remember using 8.x ::mehsandwiches:: | 20:53 |
| AlexNagy | yeats: no support question, just a legit question. | 20:53 |
| mterry | GunnarHj, udev is still in saucy, just provided by a different source package (systemd) | 20:53 |

| neytiri | hi how do i setup ubuntu 10.4 as a dialup server, i have a remote location with no internet connection and i need to be able to connect to my netwrok here | 20:53 |
| SolarisB1y | AlexNagy: do you have a specific problem that you need help with? | 20:54 |
| mterry | GunnarHj, do you have /dev/hda? | 20:54 |
| bennypr0fane | btw the question I *tried* to post on askubuntu didn't just not get an answer, but it was automatically rejected. Maybe they believe a precise question cannot be that short | 20:54 |
| ahammond | AlexNagy: not a legit question, a bunch of complaints based on your personal opinions. :) | 20:54 |
| GunnarHj | mterry: Aha, then I misunderstood that LP page. | 20:54 |
| SolarisB1y | bennypr0fane: the nature of your question makes it a looooong answer seriously | 20:54 |
| SolarisB1y | bennypr0fane: you got parts of the long answer in here ... | 20:55 |
| SolarisB1y | imagine a guy managing those posts, hes not trying to holla at ya for that long.. lol | 20:55 |
| bennypr0fane | SolarisBly I get that, but how does the site know that? | 20:55 |
| === milind__ is now known as abyss42 | ||
| GunnarHj | mterry: I don't know... Need to check. | 20:55 |
| SolarisB1y | hes like - OFFTOPIC denied go to sleep | 20:55 |
| bennypr0fane | it wasn't rejected by a person, but automatically | 20:55 |
| SolarisB1y | ::shrugs:: no clue bennypr0fane | 20:55 |
| AlexNagy | It is a legit question, based on the fact that Unity sucks compared to even Gnome 3, the defaults forced on the Ubuntu Gimp 2.8 package make Gimp worse, and based on the fact that whenever you force anyone to migrate to a software someone else prefers, it's no better than Microsoft and how they operate. | 20:55 |
| SolarisB1y | bennypr0fane: maybe they regex Gnome versions lmao | 20:55 |
| GunnarHj | mterry: What's your idea if I have /dev/hda? | 20:56 |
| AlexNagy | but I'm off to the other channel to get an answer. | 20:56 |
| SolarisB1y | if ($_ =~ /Gnome 3\.\d+/) {"fail"} | 20:56 |
| DJones | AlexNagy: Have you filed any bugs regarding the problems? | 20:56 |
| * SolarisB1y rofling | 20:56 | |
| ahammond | AlexNagy: good luck. :) | 20:56 |
| ahammond | AlexNagy: and I kind of agree that Unity sucks… but then I don't use Ubuntu on my desktop. | 20:57 |
| bennypr0fane | AlexNagy, the "sucks" in your complaint is a very subjective one | 20:57 |
| ahammond | And… you might spend some time learning about apt configurations, PPAs etc before talking about stuff being forced on anyone. | 20:57 |
| AlexNagy | DJones: Filed a bug report? To what end? Ubuntu is moving quickly to only being usable on high-end desktops. | 20:57 |
| AlexNagy | bennypr0fane: perhaps | 20:57 |
| DJones | AlexNagy: If people don't file bugs/feature requests, then the developers won't know that there is a problem between how they and the users see the system going | 20:58 |
| mterry | GunnarHj, just /dev/hda without numbers after it? | 20:58 |
| SolarisB1y | what confuses me is what do people want other than unity? or is it the performance? mines works fine, previous to unity folks would install gnome-do or other sorts of other similar apps, which if you ask me, reflect unity | 20:58 |
| SolarisB1y | so i get lost to the unity complaints as just whining a lot | 20:58 |
| ahammond | complaining that the defaults suck without really specific things you'd like to see changed isn't gonna help anyone. Filing bugs/feature requests with specific complaints and suggestions for improvements however… :) | 20:58 |
| mterry | GunnarHj, the idea is to use hda instead of sda in the mount line if you have them | 20:58 |
| bennypr0fane | SolarisB1y, I see the Unity thing in a similar way | 20:59 |
| GunnarHj | mterry: You mean "mount /dev/hda /mnt"? | 20:59 |
| SolarisB1y | yea - i like it. a lot better than that gnome-shell madness | 20:59 |
| SolarisB1y | brb | 20:59 |
| AlexNagy | I prefer WindowMaker in all honesty (couldn't find it in the official PPAs), but used Gnome 2 instead (I got tired of KDE a long time ago). | 20:59 |
| mterry | GunnarHj, yeah, but you'd need to specify /dev/hdaX, where X is a number of the partition for your main ubuntu install. And you may want to mkdir /mnt first | 21:00 |
| Inv1s1ble | What's the correct Ubuntu/Debian way to turn services on and off (like rc-update in Gentoo or chkconfig in opensuse)? | 21:00 |

| matanya | or upstream on gnome if you can prove it is gnome's fault | 21:03 |
| xan_it | actually i see that my second pc have same wifi card and works good | 21:03 |
| GunnarHj | mterry: I'll try that now. Otherwise I'm getting mentally prepared to start it all over. You can spend your time better than fixing some stupid mistake I did... | 21:03 |
| matanya | with the same os/driver etc xan_it ? | 21:03 |
| mterry | GunnarHj, :) As long as you're not losing any important data, no big deal in starting over, yeah | 21:03 |
| bennypr0fane | still my Gnome Shell topic though: if Canonical still fix problems in 3.6 (that I'm sure they will, as there's a Gnome flavoured release 2nd ed now), at some point they might decide it's been trained well enough to be ok for LTS, yes? I mean sounds like it could happen to me...? | 21:04 |

| SolarisB1y | |thunder: offset returned from first command | 21:23 |
| |thunder | SolarisB1y, I'm not sure what this does, Manually creates an md5? | 21:24 |
| SolarisB1y | you want to verify integrity of an iso (file) that you copied to a disk (block device) | 21:25 |
| Fuzzles | my libeoffice spell check for uk isnt working? | 21:25 |
| SolarisB1y | there will be extra characters so a simple md5sum is not sufficient what that does is finds the size of the iso and only performs a sum on that part of the disk you copied the iso too | 21:25 |
| SolarisB1y | it should generate the same sum as md5sum file.iso | 21:25 |
| SolarisB1y | if it does - you have verified integrity | 21:26 |
| SolarisB1y | |thunder: ^ | 21:26 |

| dichotoPangea | Hey, I'm looking for a little help on creating screencasts? | 21:27 |
| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: what do you need to know? | 21:28 |
| dichotoPangea | I've been trying to record Minecraft, but to nothing. | 21:28 |
| SolarisB1y | interesting - how are you doing this? | 21:28 |
| dichotoPangea | The best I've got is with Kazam, but I only get one frame every five seconds. | 21:29 |
| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: try using ffmpeg directly | 21:29 |
| dichotoPangea | And how would I do that? | 21:29 |
| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: example: 'ffmpeg -y -t 00:15:30 -f x11grab -r 25 -s 1920x1080 -i :0.0 -sameq /tmp/screenCast.flv' | 21:29 |

| AnonAMouse | I have re-partitioned my drive so I have 8.2GB of swapspace. Upon resume I got this http://i.imgur.com/w6fxIjB.jpg I pressed enter. What did that mean? | 21:30 |
| === raster is now known as Guest56639 | ||
| dichotoPangea | Whoa, slow down. | 21:30 |
| SolarisB1y | in that example i record 15 minutes and 30 seconds | 21:30 |
| dichotoPangea | Yeah. | 21:30 |
| dichotoPangea | What if I don't know how long I'll be recording for? | 21:30 |
| SolarisB1y | remove the -t and it's argument | 21:31 |
| dichotoPangea | And how do I stop it? | 21:31 |
| SolarisB1y | which causes it to run indefinitely stopped by 'q' within the window it was run in | 21:31 |
| SolarisB1y | ^ | 21:31 |
| dichotoPangea | Ah. | 21:31 |
| dichotoPangea | But 'Q' is a bound key in Minecraft, can I change it? | 21:31 |
| SolarisB1y | no and it shouldn't matter because the focus wont be on mindcraft when you hit q | 21:32 |
| dichotoPangea | Or do I have to change MC controls? | 21:32 |
| SolarisB1y | it willbe on a shell | 21:32 |
| dichotoPangea | Oh ok. | 21:32 |
| SolarisB1y | there is an alternate method also a CTRL sequence - it's displayed when you run the program | 21:32 |
| SolarisB1y | yea 'Press ctrl-c to stop encoding' | 21:33 |
| dichotoPangea | Okay. | 21:33 |
| dichotoPangea | Can I change the output format or do I have to reencode? | 21:33 |
| SolarisB1y | additionally you can record in other formats than flv if you desired just change the file extension and relative options | 21:33 |
| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: you can | 21:33 |
| dichotoPangea | Okay. I need .avi for the YouTubes, correct? | 21:34 |
| SolarisB1y | .avi - but remember you may invalidate some of the options so you may want to read up on what opts the various containers take | 21:34 |
| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: think so. you can encode to flv and re-encode or just encode directly to avi - ill tell you avi can get huge from screencasting very quick | 21:34 |
| dichotoPangea | Yeah, but YouTube doesn't support .flv, right? | 21:35 |
| dichotoPangea | Or do they? | 21:35 |
| === felipe__ is now known as Guest68428 | ||

| enrico__ | hi! | 21:36 |
| TheUsD | Hello, I just installed Zentyal 3.0 and started to configure it on the HTTPS, after finishing configuring it and it was doing the finalizing it got to 52% and hung. I restarted the computer but now I cannot get access to the HTTPS anymore, any thoughts? | 21:37 |
| SolarisB1y | TheUsD: is there any log file for that application? or does it log somewhere general? probably need to look there to see whats going on | 21:37 |
| TheUsD | 5 day old ubuntu user, gots not clue. | 21:38 |
| TheUsD | update; I can access it locally with my public IP...but not on another computer with the public ip... | 21:40 |
| SolarisB1y | possibly there is a ACL on the webserver or a rule in the firewall that is actively denying | 21:40 |
| SolarisB1y | what response do you get? refused? HTTP errors? | 21:40 |
| dichotoPangea | SolarisB1y: Where would I find the video on my system? | 21:41 |

| dichotoPangea | And would it record audio? | 21:41 |
| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: its user defined and yes it can record audio not in that case you didn't tell it to | 21:42 |
| dichotoPangea | How do I tell it to record audio? | 21:42 |
| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: what kind of mic do you have? is it a stand alone or is attached to some other device like a web cam or so? | 21:42 |
| === sgornick_ is now known as Guest98893 | ||
| dichotoPangea | I have a mic on a headset, but I don't think it gets picked up by my computer. I also have a built-in one and one on a webcam. | 21:43 |
| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: try 'aplay -L' to list the recording devices - find yours | 21:44 |
| sianhulo | hey guys, I have a question. why most of the files are now being run with gedit?I mean, .bin .bundle .sh formatless could be opened witha double-click after it being marked as executable, now all of them open with gedit and the only way to run them is through console, why is this? | 21:44 |
| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: look for the line like 'card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: ALC888 Digital [ALC888 Digital]' | 21:44 |
| dichotoPangea | Don't really know what the output means | 21:44 |
| SolarisB1y | im trying to explain it.... | 21:44 |
| dichotoPangea | card 0: Generic [HD-Audio Generic]? | 21:44 |
| SolarisB1y | anyway take the card number and the device number and add it to the same command i previous gave you once you figure it out | 21:44 |
| dichotoPangea | I don't know which one I'm using. | 21:45 |
| toshiba | thank you guyzzz.... | 21:45 |
| toshiba | i was able to install skipe | 21:45 |
| SolarisB1y | like i said - review the output for your card - you should atleast know your card name come on | 21:45 |
| modernbob | anyone know if there is a netbook "version" of ubuntu.. I know I saw something like that at one time | 21:45 |
| SolarisB1y | if not - you need to figure it out - | 21:45 |
| toshiba | gentlemen, I have got a major issue... | 21:45 |
| utfans05 | modernbob: they rolled it into the current release | 21:45 |
| dichotoPangea | How do I find out my card? And I want to use the mic on my webcam. | 21:46 |
| modernbob | utfans05: reason I ask is the video on this netbook is stupid pokey | 21:46 |
| utfans05 | modernbob: are you using the stock drivers that came with it or do you have a dedicated card | 21:46 |
| SolarisB1y | once you do - this is how you would do audio as well. ffmpeg -y -t 00:15:30 -f x11grab -r 25 -s 1920x1080 -i :0.0 -f alsa -i plughw:0,1 -acodec libmp3lame -ab 128k sameq /tmp/vagrantIPsoftClientAutomation.flv | 21:46 |

| toshiba | so went for fedora | 21:47 |

| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: -sameq | 21:58 |
| toshiba | wildwind : nope | 21:58 |
| toshiba | :( | 21:58 |
| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: seems a - got lost in traslation you need to add one in front of sameq it should be -sameq | 21:58 |
| th0r | toshiba: have you looked at those partitions to see if they are really reformatted? It would be worth mounting each to a temp mountpoint and checking...there is a chance the data is still there | 21:58 |
| SolarisB1y | the rest looks fine . | 21:58 |
| dichotoPangea | Okay, new error. | 21:58 |
| SolarisB1y | ill be back going to smoke | 21:58 |
| SolarisB1y | .... hurry - | 21:58 |
| wildwind | toshiba: bad | 21:58 |
| toshiba | yea | 21:58 |
| speckmade1 | SolarisB1y: the python script says "ImportError: No module named simplejson" | 21:59 |
| toshiba | wildwind : any chance? | 22:00 |
| SolarisB1y | speckmade1: you may need to install it | 22:00 |
| SolarisB1y | speckmade1: sudo pip install simpljson or grab it with apt-get (actually do that first) | 22:00 |
| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: the error? | 22:00 |
| wildwind | toshiba: basically there's two approaches: more intelligent - recover filesystem and more brute-force - blindly search for file signatures and pray they were not fragmented. there's utilities for both | 22:01 |
| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: your prolonging my smoke break =) | 22:01 |
| dichotoPangea | http://pastebin.com/vkWGEfGi | 22:01 |
| toshiba | tell me the intelligent 1 first :D | 22:01 |
| SolarisB1y | ok flv container doesn't like the args hmm try with no audio - so remove '-f alsa -i plughw:2,0 -acodec libmp3lame -ab 128k ' if you can get it working - you will need to build a new command up with non offensive args | 22:02 |
| SolarisB1y | its most likely the audio bit rate or the the encoding of the audio | 22:02 |
| wildwind | toshiba: btw are you sure you didn't full format drive/partitions in the process? | 22:02 |
| toshiba | wildwind :not sure | 22:03 |
| wildwind | toshiba: ( | 22:03 |
| SolarisB1y | yea dichotoPangea read the output you posted: '[libmp3lame @ 0x96fac40] flv does not support that sample rate, choose from (44100, 22050, 11025).' | 22:03 |
| toshiba | wildwind : well, i don't think, i attempt that... | 22:03 |
| SolarisB1y | change the -ab parameter to one of those they listed there - | 22:03 |
| SolarisB1y | dichotoPangea: ^^ ill brb ok? | 22:04 |
| dichotoPangea | Which is best? | 22:04 |
| SolarisB1y | the highest assuming your audio is spitting it out at that rate | 22:04 |
| dichotoPangea | Alrighty. | 22:04 |
| SolarisB1y | so change the -ab arg to one of those ones | 22:04 |
| dichotoPangea | Will any one do? | 22:05 |
| Iceman_B | hello hello | 22:05 |
| wildwind | toshiba: for the first approach to work you have to determine somehow start sector of lost partition (mandatory) and end sector (preferable) | 22:05 |

| toshiba | nope | 22:06 |

| tt | found it | 22:15 |
| tt | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2098855 | 22:15 |
| tt | what happens is NetworkManager switches networks, kills the old dnsmasq, and starts a new one | 22:16 |
| tt | if killing the old one is too slow, the new one can't open a listening socket | 22:16 |
| tt | and until you switch networks again, you have no DNS | 22:16 |

| SolarisB1y | ouch | 22:27 |
| SolarisB1y | well looks like you'll need a gui - maybe you can install xlibs and do this over a Xforwarded ssh session, assuming that would work maybe it will popopen whatever on your remote box | 22:28 |
| TheUsD | toshiba: download a hirens .iso, burn it to cd and boot into min-xp and then run the GetitbackNTFS. | 22:29 |

| SolarisB1y | deckard: are you sure you didn't run it from a specific location and now your not there? | 22:42 |

| SolarisB1y | do you have ./etc/register_hopprotocol.sh under where you ran that from? | 22:42 |
| deckard | i dont know | 22:42 |
| SolarisB1y | you should check because that script is calling something that it expects there - so it should probably be there - i have no idea what the script deoes or how fatal that not being there is | 22:43 |

| SolarisB1y | deckard: what do you mean reset? | 22:44 |
| toshiba | *no | 22:44 |
| deckard | i just mean i dont have any files i care about and i dont want to instal ubuntu again. can i just repair it or set it back to default ? | 22:44 |
| deckard | i dont want to install windows then ubuntu etc... | 22:44 |
| SolarisB1y | there is no revert point or default state you can revert to | 22:45 |
| SolarisB1y | not unless you have some mechanism for saving that state previously | 22:45 |
| SolarisB1y | you can operate on partitions from the live CD though - not sure if it is for what you want | 22:45 |
| deckard | So i cant just tell ubuntu to reset everything to fresh install without actually having to install windows again the the ubuntu duel boot? | 22:46 |
| SolarisB1y | deckard: you can probably overwrite the current installation if thats what your asking | 22:46 |
| deckard | yes, but is it easy? | 22:47 |
| SolarisB1y | and it *should* respect that windows is still there and still provide facility for easy dual boot setup - but i have never done that so can't confirm | 22:47 |
| SolarisB1y | deckard: ::shrugs:: | 22:47 |
| SolarisB1y | i guess its with pictures in a gui =) | 22:47 |

| antony_ | theres no option for wobbly windows, its almost like most of the features are missing in compiz | 22:49 |

| sianhulo | hey guys, I have a question. why most of the files are now being run with gedit?I mean, .bin .bundle .sh formatless could be opened witha double-click after it being marked as executable, now all of them open with gedit and the only way to run them is through console, why is this?the only one that I've been able to execute as I did before is .run | 22:51 |
| SolarisB1y | sianhulo: are those files on your desktop? | 22:52 |
| Soyo | I have some mp4 videos I shot on my Galaxy S3.. After finally getting MTP installed and coping them over they are playing really slow. The audio isn't matching the video and the video is like 1 frame per minute. I have the latest codecs 1.1.6 but didn't help. I suppose they might be in HD and its just too much but I have a dual core processor and ATi card on my Acer Ferrari One. Maybe I need to convert them to DV using ffmpeg if I | 22:52 |
| sianhulo | SolarisB1y, yes | 22:52 |
| Soyo | Ultimately I want to edit them in Kino | 22:52 |
| SolarisB1y | sianhulo: the mime type on the desktop is likely configured to open them in gedit | 22:52 |
| SolarisB1y | Soyo: yes convert with ffmpeg - also you may want to look at using the ffmpeg ppa for the latest av codecs/libs | 22:53 |
| sianhulo | SolarisB1y, I don't know what you mean by mime, but this is out-of-the-box as this is fresh install, and this didn't happen in previous releases | 22:53 |
| SolarisB1y | i had some problems with that that went away after the two | 22:53 |
| Iceman_B | for the average home/study use, should I create all new paritions as Ext4, opposed to Ext2/3 ? | 22:54 |
| Soyo | SolarisB1y: thanks | 22:54 |
| sianhulo | basically what I need is to be able to click .bin .bundle and the such for opening them, like it did before | 22:54 |
| BobJonkman | Iceman_B: I've been using ext4 for everything for years, no problems anywhere. | 22:55 |
| sianhulo | also, is there a way to add more apps to the "open with"option? | 22:55 |
| SolarisB1y | sianhulo: open with other applications generally remembers what you chose AFAIK | 22:57 |
| Iceman_B | BobJonkman: hokay | 22:57 |
| SolarisB1y | sianhulo: that dialouge actually updates the mime associations for the file | 22:57 |
| sianhulo | SolarisB1y, but I don't open it with any other program, I jus olpen theme | 22:57 |
| deckard | Can someone tell me if it is possible to just set the ubuntu half of my duel boot back to its original first time install settings and files? | 22:57 |
| SolarisB1y | yes and you just need to tell it to be open by a script interpreter and not a text editor | 22:58 |
| sianhulo | SolarisB1y, /path-to-the-file on terminal and it opens | 22:58 |

| bekks | You dont access permissions to that directory. | 23:16 |
| SolarisB1y | not if you just renamed everything to that - | 23:16 |
| nikola_ | how do I proove that to you? | 23:16 |
| SolarisB1y | or like bekks said - you dont have access | 23:16 |
| nikola_ | printscreen? | 23:16 |

| bekks | ls -lha | 23:17 |
| nikola_ | seriously | 23:17 |
| SolarisB1y | yes | 23:17 |

| nikola_ | nikola@blackbox:~$ cd abc | 23:17 |

| FloodBot1 | nikola_: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:17 |
| SolarisB1y | our script said this "cd /home/nikola/RemoteDroidServer/" and the first error said this RemoteDroidServer.sh: 2: cd: can't cd to /home/nikola/RemoteDroidServer , thats from bash, the last error Error: Unable to access jarfile RemoteDroidServer.jar is from java | 23:18 |
| marko-_- | Good. Now you can help me | 23:18 |
| marko-_- | :) | 23:18 |
| SolarisB1y | because it can't find it - maybe you don't own /home/nikola/RemoteDroidServer like bekks mentioned | 23:18 |
| marko-_- | hello. I try to make a bootable USB for opensuse and i'm making it on ubuntu via usb-creator and when i select and open the image it won't load it | 23:18 |
| marko-_- | ubuntu 13.04 gnome | 23:18 |
| nikola_ | I run it with sudo | 23:18 |
| marko-_- | when i select the .iso file | 23:18 |
| sianhulo | marko-_-, be more speecific | 23:18 |
| nikola_ | i'm admin | 23:18 |
| SolarisB1y | nikola_: now do this ls -ltrh ${HOME}/ and see who owns that folder and if you have permissions to execute etc in it.. | 23:19 |
| marko-_- | i run the GUI for usb-creator. It recognized my usb and everything. Then i select the image and it should pop in the program but it doesn't si | 23:19 |
| marko-_- | sianhulo | 23:19 |
| sianhulo | marko-_-, so you can't see the iso on the program? | 23:19 |
| marko-_- | no | 23:19 |
| marko-_- | it's 900mb big. Maybe the size is too big? | 23:19 |
| marko-_- | won't load it or something. But then why no error | 23:20 |
| sianhulo | marko-_-, I don't think the size should matter | 23:20 |
| rlh_ | I have this software that is a server and it installs to mac OSX or windows. Can i possibly make it work with ubuntu? | 23:20 |
| marko-_- | that's what she said | 23:20 |
| marko-_- | my first time saying this :p | 23:20 |

| nikola_ | -rwxrwxr-x 1 nikola nikola 65K Dec 1 2010 abc.jar | 23:20 |
| marko-_- | sianhulo, i can see it when i want to open it. Then i load it but it doesn't load it into the program | 23:20 |
| SolarisB1y | nikola_: and you can confirm that your user id is nikola? | 23:20 |
| nikola_ | yes | 23:21 |
| sianhulo | marko-_-, NOW I get you | 23:21 |
| marko-_- | tried it under usb-creator-kde now | 23:21 |
| marko-_- | doesn't work either | 23:21 |
| SolarisB1y | nikola_: can you cd into that folder with no error? | 23:21 |
| histo | marko-_-: what image are you using? | 23:21 |
| sianhulo | marko-_-, it shouldn't as -kde would only add compatibility to kde enviroment | 23:21 |
| nikola_ | yes | 23:21 |
| marko-_- | histo, openSUSE-12.3-GNOME-Live-x86_64.iso | 23:21 |
| sianhulo | marko-_-, can the iso be mounted? | 23:21 |
| marko-_- | how do i check that? | 23:21 |
| sianhulo | right click and there you should have the option | 23:22 |
| sianhulo | marko-_-, | 23:22 |
| histo | marko-_-: mount -o loop openSUSE...iso /mnt | 23:22 |
| marko-_- | yes | 23:22 |
| marko-_- | sianhulo, i can mount it and see the files | 23:22 |
| marko-_- | so the .iso file is okay | 23:22 |
| sianhulo | marko-_-, if no error I would go to the easy path, install unetbootin | 23:22 |
| histo | marko-_-: I would try using unetbootin possibly and you may want to ask the opensuse people as this has nothing to do with ubuntu. If they made a hybrid image you should be able to dd if=/path/to/opensuse.iso of=/dev/of/usb | 23:23 |
| histo | !info unetbootin | marko-_- | 23:23 |
| marko-_- | thanks. Searched for a different program in add/remove but didn't find this unetbootin | 23:23 |
| ubottu | marko-_-: unetbootin (source: unetbootin): installer of Linux/BSD distributions to a partition or USB drive. In component universe, is optional. Version 575-1ubuntu1 (raring), package size 281 kB, installed size 834 kB | 23:23 |
| marko-_- | they should name it better | 23:23 |
| nikola_ | I'm really crazy | 23:23 |
| histo | nikola_: well hide your crazy and act like a lady | 23:23 |
| sianhulo | marko-_-, sudo apt-get install unetbootin | 23:23 |
| marko-_- | i already have it :) | 23:24 |
| SolarisB1y | what were you running the command on the wrong server nikola_ ? | 23:24 |
| sianhulo | marko-_-, does it work now? | 23:24 |
| marko-_- | yes! | 23:24 |
| marko-_- | it loads the image | 23:24 |
| marko-_- | thanks | 23:24 |
| histo | nikola_: what is it you are trying to do? | 23:24 |
| marko-_- | histo and sianhulo thanks. | 23:25 |

| moses_ | does anyone use wine? | 23:26 |
| SolarisB1y | every friday | 23:26 |
| moses_ | lol | 23:26 |
| nikola_ | is it possible to turn this jar file into something else? | 23:26 |
| moses_ | I need help installing a windows program on ubuntu | 23:27 |
| SolarisB1y | nikola_: jar file is zip file unjar/zip it | 23:27 |
| SolarisB1y | nikola_: jar command works like tar command | 23:27 |
| marko-_- | histo, unetbootin is a kde fronted program? | 23:27 |
| sianhulo | moses_, not all programs will work | 23:27 |
| moses_ | sianhulo: apparently the older version of wine works with this program | 23:28 |
| histo | nikola_: What are you trying to do just run a jar? you just java somefile.jar | 23:28 |
| SolarisB1y | moses_: http://appdb.winehq.org/ | 23:28 |
| histo | nikola_: or make it executable and should be able to ./somefile.jar | 23:29 |
| sianhulo | moses_, there's someone else with that name, I'd appreaciate if you changed your name to something else to reply to you more easily | 23:29 |
| SolarisB1y | histo: he was trying to get this script to work http://paste.ubuntu.com/5714996/ | 23:29 |
| nikola_ | histo, I know that, but I works only when run from terminal | 23:29 |
| nikola_ | right | 23:29 |
| SolarisB1y | but he got errors which indicated he didn't have access to that folder | 23:29 |
| SolarisB1y | and then further errors indicating java couldnt access the jar within that folder | 23:29 |
| histo | nikola_: Create a whatever.desktop file | 23:29 |
| Spency | I just freshly installed ubuntu 12.04 64bit onto a computer, however for some reason SSH connections time out after a few minutes with an error message saying "connection pipeline broken" has anyone encountered this? | 23:30 |
| histo | nikola_: if you look online for minecraft tutorials you will get some ideas | 23:30 |
| histo | nikola_: or askubuntu.com | 23:30 |
| SolarisB1y | it worked fine for me histo http://paste.ubuntu.com/5715010/ | 23:30 |
| sianhulo | moses_, 1, your wine version.2, the version that supposedly works. the program you want to install. next time try to supply as much information as you can without being asked | 23:30 |
| SolarisB1y | seems to be permission/ other related for him | 23:30 |
| fellayaboy | through an ssh connection how can i open a program on server | 23:30 |
| SolarisB1y | fellayaboy: type the program name - assuming its a console app | 23:31 |
| SolarisB1y | fellayaboy: if its a gui app you want to ssh with -X to forward X apps | 23:31 |
| fellayaboy | yes a gui app. | 23:31 |
| rsyring | Are there any projects that do one-package-no-dependency installs for ubuntu? For example, I'd like to keep PGAdmin III updated to the latest version. I want everything compiled static, ideally it wouldn't matter one bit what libraries I have installed on my system. | 23:31 |
| SolarisB1y | fellayaboy: then the latter | 23:31 |
| histo | nikola_: what error do you get when you run your bash script? | 23:31 |
| fellayaboy | but it will run a program on my client rather then opening it on the host if i use ssh -X | 23:31 |
| fellayaboy | i mean on the server not the host | 23:32 |
| Iceman_B | how do I permanently enable smart on an hdd? | 23:32 |
| nikola_ | abc.sh: 2: cd: can't cd to /home/nikola/abc | 23:32 |
| nikola_ | Error: Unable to access jarfile abc.jar | 23:32 |
| SolarisB1y | fellayaboy: well if you want to open it on the server you can set the DISPLAY and open it normally | 23:33 |
| moses_ | sianhulo: Its actually not compatable but will linux run OSX compatable programs? | 23:33 |
| fellayaboy | how do i do that solarisbly | 23:33 |
| SolarisB1y | fellayaboy: DISPLAY=:0 VirtualBox for instance would open VirtualBox on monitor 0 | 23:33 |
| histo | nikola_: what user are you executing the script as? | 23:33 |
| fellayaboy | on the server | 23:33 |
| nikola_ | histo: the onliest user: me, nikola | 23:33 |
| nikola_ | admin user | 23:33 |
| nikola_ | chowned it | 23:34 |
| fellayaboy | so i need to ssh -x in order for that to work or no | 23:34 |
| nikola_ | chmod 777 it | 23:34 |
| histo | nikola_: ls -l /home/nikola/abc | 23:34 |
| histo | nikola_: please paste the output of that | 23:34 |
| sianhulo | moses_, no. Also, please change your suername, you can do it at the bottom of the chat | 23:34 |
| SolarisB1y | fellayaboy: no you can do that with out -X (capital) | 23:34 |
| nikola_ | -rwxrwxrwx 1 nikola nikola 65853 Dec 1 2010 abc.jar | 23:34 |
| moses_ | why my username? | 23:34 |
| moses_ | to what? | 23:34 |
| nikola_ | mistery | 23:34 |
| fellayaboy | ok ...cool thanks.. but tell me something the DISPLAY-:0..if i were to do 1 2 or 3 instead of zero..and if i had multiple monitors on..it would open it up in that monitor correct | 23:35 |
| moses_ | why cant i use moses? | 23:35 |
| histo | nikola_: what about the abc directory | 23:35 |
| SolarisB1y | fellayaboy: yes | 23:35 |
| fellayaboy | so what is my monitor on the client considered then...not ont he host..or is there no relation | 23:35 |
| Spency | when I try to ssh into server, I get the error: ssh_exchange_identification: read | 23:36 |
| histo | nikola_: please open a terminal. Then copy and paste each line in your bash script. Perhaps you have a typo that we are not seeing. | 23:36 |
| SolarisB1y | fellayaboy: when you ssh into a server you will generally notice the DISPLAY var is not set - your on a virtual TTY | 23:36 |
| Spency | : Connection reset by peer | 23:36 |
| sianhulo | moses_, is difficult to reply to because there's someone else using that name. change it to whatever | 23:36 |
| === DouglasKAway is now known as DouglasK | ||
| SolarisB1y | fellayaboy: if you did try to run apps that required one like xset to be set - they would fail asking for a DISPLAY variable over ssh | 23:36 |
| fellayaboy | i see | 23:36 |
| histo | moses_: because someone else is using it already. | 23:36 |
| SolarisB1y | Spency: is that a new error? are you using ssh keys? | 23:36 |
| moses_ | thats me also | 23:36 |
| nikola_ | histo, trust me, because of that, I renamed folder and script and program to "abc" | 23:37 |
| fellayaboy | where can i find more info on DISPLAY | 23:37 |
| nikola_ | no typing error | 23:37 |
| histo | !ghost | moses_ | 23:37 |
| ubottu | moses_: If you own an IRC nick that is currently being used, you can make it change nicks by typing: /msg nickserv release <nick> <password> | If you have a dead (ghost) connection, you can make it quit by typing: /msg nickserv ghost <nick> <password> | further help in #freenode | 23:37 |
| SolarisB1y | fellayaboy: good question =) | 23:37 |
| SolarisB1y | i kinda just collected mine over the years - it pops up in man pages here ant here but i never tracked it down | 23:37 |
| === moses_ is now known as knivez | ||
| histo | nikola_: How are you calling the bash script? | 23:37 |
| knivez | there is that better? | 23:37 |
| SolarisB1y | i always just do trial and error which si sooo wrong lolZ | 23:37 |
| sianhulo | moses_, we reply to others using tab, that also autocompletes names but won't work when there are 2 names alike | 23:37 |
| DrFoo | is there a way I can call a script when a file is created in a directory? | 23:37 |
| SolarisB1y | histo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5715010/ | 23:37 |
| nikola_ | abc.sh | 23:38 |
| SolarisB1y | i tried some testing to see if i can dig in also - this may help if your involved | 23:38 |
| SolarisB1y | i basically mimic'd his process - it works for me.. | 23:38 |
| sianhulo | knivez, ok, what program are you trying to use?what wine version do you have?in what version did it work? | 23:38 |
| histo | nikola_: please cat abc.sh | pastebinit | 23:38 |
| SolarisB1y | did multiple types of execution of the script too - calling interpreter, setting x bit, from in directory, from out of directory also - all works which is weird | 23:38 |
| knivez | ok so i have this program that is compatable with osx but not linux and some windows. I am trying to install this program called BIMx | 23:39 |
| nikola_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5715095/ | 23:39 |
| knivez | im not sure its compatable with any versions of wine | 23:39 |
| SolarisB1y | nikola_: wait you said you run it with sudo? because if so that likely is changing the ~ value | 23:39 |
| SolarisB1y | just a FYI. | 23:39 |
| histo | nikola_: okay try using /home/nikola/abc in line 2 | 23:39 |
| knivez | why about running a windows virtual server? | 23:39 |
| sianhulo | knivez, if you tap sian and then the tab key, I can find your replies more easily | 23:39 |
| quibble | My problem is that I went into tty mode and now my computer is bugging out.*** | 23:40 |
| knivez | sianhulo: ok | 23:40 |
| histo | nikola_: or just java -jar /home/nikoa/abc/abc.jar instead of even cd'ng | 23:40 |
| quibble | ctrl+alt+f7 doesn't work, and i can get into tty from recovery mode but not normal boot*** | 23:40 |
| nikola_ | abc.sh: 2: cd: can't cd to /home/nikola/abc | 23:40 |
| nikola_ | Error: Unable to access jarfile abc.jar | 23:40 |
| histo | nikola_: Or you may want ot put it in your path like /usr/local/bin/ | 23:40 |
| quibble | the recovery mode "proceed with normal boot", that is*** | 23:40 |
| sianhulo | knivez, from graphisoft? | 23:41 |
| knivez | sianhulo: yes sur | 23:41 |
| SolarisB1y | ultimately the issue seems to be the inability of the script to get to the folder and the side affect being java complaining on the same - | 23:41 |
| nikola_ | nikola@blackbox:~/abc$ sh abc.sh | 23:41 |
| nikola_ | Error: Unable to access jarfile /home/nikola/abc/abc.jar | 23:41 |
| histo | nikola_: open a terminal cat your abc.sh then try and run it. Also ls -l /home/nikola/abc and then copy all that output and pastebin it | 23:41 |
| quibble | I've attempted startx, and sudo start gdm, none of them with any effect. It does not recognice gdm as a job*** | 23:41 |
| SolarisB1y | nikola_: lets do this - | 23:41 |
| SolarisB1y | nikola_: cp /home/nikola/abc/abc.jar /tmp and adjust the script accordingly | 23:41 |
| knivez | sianhulo: its either wine or a virtual server of windows at this point | 23:41 |
| SolarisB1y | does it work then? | 23:41 |
| quibble | When you are done with nikola please view posts with asterisks (***) | 23:41 |
| pragmaticenigma | Is there anyone here familiar with OpenELEC that could help me in the #openelec room please? | 23:41 |
| SolarisB1y | if so you can check whats up with the perms setup there - | 23:42 |

| SolarisB1y | quibble: try lightdm if your on a modern ubuntu | 23:42 |
| sianhulo | knivez, but at this point have you tried running it? | 23:42 |
| knivez | in wine? | 23:42 |

| sianhulo | knivez, yes | 23:43 |
| nikola_ | both script coppied to /tmp | 23:43 |
| nikola_ | changed path in script | 23:43 |
| SolarisB1y | quibble: restart it the same way you were trying to restart gdm | 23:43 |
| SolarisB1y | its the display manager of modern ubuntu by default afaik | 23:43 |
| nikola_ | #!/bin/bash -x | 23:43 |
| nikola_ | java -jar abc.jar | 23:43 |
| histo | pragmaticenigma: I'm not being rash you are offtopic. You know where to ask your question ask it there or use alis to find an appropriate channel | 23:43 |
| nikola_ | and still nothing | 23:43 |
| histo | !alis > pragmaticenigma | 23:43 |
| ubottu | pragmaticenigma, please see my private message | 23:43 |
| SolarisB1y | may be why gdm jobs are unknown because gdm is not lightdm | 23:43 |
| knivez | sianhulo: I found this: http://archicad-talk.graphisoft.com/viewtopic.php?p=213352 | 23:43 |
| histo | nikola_: get rid of the -x | 23:44 |
| SolarisB1y | nikola_: shouldn't you then change it to /tmp/abc.jar | 23:44 |
| quibble | SolarisB1y: default afaik? The most I can do is press buttons in recovery mode and type "sudo.....". Is it a sudo start lightdm command? | 23:44 |
| SolarisB1y | also whast the -x doing wrong? it's increasing verbosity to see that nasty cd error | 23:44 |
| SolarisB1y | sudo service lightdm restart? | 23:45 |
| sianhulo | knivez, well that's from febraury, you could always try | 23:45 |
| nikola_ | Error: Unable to access jarfile /tmp/abc.jar | 23:45 |
| nikola_ | I will restart my PC. | 23:45 |
| histo | nikola_: why? | 23:45 |
| nikola_ | It was updated. | 23:45 |
| nikola_ | Installed today. | 23:45 |
| histo | nikola_: can you you java -jar /tmp/abc.jar right now from a terminal? | 23:45 |
| nikola_ | Xubuntu 12.10 | 23:45 |
| nikola_ | 186 updates | 23:45 |
| nikola_ | histo: yes, and it works perfectly | 23:45 |
| SolarisB1y | dought that fixes your issue but shoot - | 23:45 |
| sianhulo | knivez, it's not the proper solution, but If I were you, I would try it on stable and then on wine dev | 23:45 |
| nikola_ | I will restart | 23:45 |
| nikola_ | back in 5 | 23:46 |
| nikola_ | thanks! | 23:46 |
| histo | nikola_: then create a bash script with just that line | 23:46 |
| histo | oh boy well there goes his .jar that was in /tmp | 23:46 |
| SolarisB1y | lmao | 23:46 |
| knivez | sianhulo: so I should install the stable version of wine and try and install the software? | 23:46 |
| binBlob | Hi, win7 has the option to boot from a virtual drive (vhd), there is a commercial software (vboot) that apparently does the same for linux machines, my question is: Is there something similar as an open source project ? | 23:46 |
| knivez | sianhulo: I dont even know how to use wine though :( | 23:46 |
| histo | SolarisB1y: next lesson will be in file recovery | 23:46 |
| SolarisB1y | lols and today kids we disable "temp-watch" | 23:47 |
| sianhulo | knivez, you just install it from repos, and you just doble click the .exe | 23:47 |
| quibble | SolarisB1y: It seemed to have worked (it flashed for a second with a bunch of what looked like loading information in terminal, in the tty) But then my computer screen went black (not off, just black) | 23:47 |
| histo | binBlob: virtualbox | 23:47 |
| quibble | SolarisB1y: This is the same thing that happens when I try to open tty in normal boot | 23:47 |
| SolarisB1y | quibble: after you restart lightdm try and switch back to TTY on F7 | 23:48 |
| eset | hola | 23:48 |
| SolarisB1y | if it's hung = its hung you need to start looking at logs then = the restart was to try and get you out of stuck mode though | 23:48 |
| binBlob | histo: how do I boot a virtual drive with virtualbox ? I am pretty sure you can't do that. | 23:48 |
| eset | nesecito ayuda | 23:48 |
| quibble | SolarisB1y: I am confused. I typed "sudo start lightdm" | 23:49 |
| quibble | SolarisB1y: Is there a reason that I was black-screened? Or is that loading. It has been 4 minutes. | 23:49 |
| quibble | or so | 23:49 |
| histo | binBlob: Why are you using virtual drives in the first place? | 23:49 |
| nikola_ | guys, still nothing | 23:49 |
| SolarisB1y | binBlob: i think kvm can do this or vbox | 23:49 |
| SolarisB1y | nikola_: i didn't expect that to work - =) | 23:49 |
| Senjai | what can I do about the touchpad sensitivity problem on ubuntu. It's my main reason for not wanting to stay with it, It triggers mouse clicks while I'm typing and it makes routine tasks difficult | 23:50 |
| histo | nikola_: well now your files in /tmp are gone | 23:50 |
| nikola_ | guys | 23:50 |
| binBlob | histo: It would be damn convenient | 23:50 |
| SolarisB1y | quibble: there can be many reasons - you should start checking logs if your lightdm is not displaying anything but black - can you provide more info? did it ever work? what were you doing when it hung? is htis just simply a hung desktop and you didn't reboot yet? | 23:50 |
| SolarisB1y | xyz and so forth... | 23:50 |
| histo | nikola_: I want you to open a terminal type in java -jar /where/ever/abc.jar then exit the application then execute your script which only has the java -jar /where/ever/abc.jar in it | 23:50 |
| ObrienDave | Senjai, there is a setting for that. let me find it | 23:50 |
| histo | binBlob: Well i'm pretty sure virtualbox handles vhd | 23:51 |
| Senjai | ObrienDave: I downloaded gpointing, but it doesn't solve the problem | 23:51 |
| binBlob | SolarisB1y: I am talkin about booting a virtal drive as a normal os ... no virtualisation | 23:51 |
| nikola_ | one thing may save the day. How to export Screen when running over ssh? EXPORT DISPLAY:0 works, but it opens on 1 workplace. how to open it in second? | 23:51 |
| quibble | SolarisB1y: I'll give the whole story: I was altering the desktop with the customization thing that ubuntu has. You know, the one that lets you do cubes and flippy desktops and sparkly mouse pointers, etc. So, I tried making "alt+ctrl+f12" a key binding. | 23:52 |
| nikola_ | histo, and? | 23:52 |
| histo | binBlob: you'd have to dd the info out to a normal drive and then just boot. but now your hardware changed... So if this is windows good luck | 23:52 |
| SolarisB1y | nikola_: set the display accordingly | 23:52 |
| nikola_ | how? | 23:52 |
| SolarisB1y | nikola_: if you mean at the same time you will need another facility to pin things to multi displays | 23:52 |
| eset | what have optimized xubuntu | 23:52 |
| quibble | SolarisB1y: To my dismay, I was put into tty mode. I didn't know how to enter my password and login (until later on) so i basically spammed every key combination in the book. | 23:52 |
| SolarisB1y | nikola_: DISPLAY=:1 for example.. | 23:52 |
| nikola_ | DISPLAY: some number? | 23:52 |
| SolarisB1y | yes | 23:52 |
| quibble | SolarisB1y: Now, I went to recovery mode, and clicked "continue with normal boot" so that I could get to tty mode | 23:52 |
| SolarisB1y | i see | 23:53 |
| histo | eset: chicken feet | 23:53 |
| SolarisB1y | then you are likely in a lower run level than graphical | 23:53 |
| quibble | SolarisB1y: So, i logged in and typed "sudo start lightdm" and it flashed some info then when black screen | 23:53 |
| eset | sorry | 23:53 |
| quibble | lower run level? | 23:53 |
| SolarisB1y | yes | 23:53 |
| quibble | i don't know what that means but the word "graphical" rings a bell | 23:53 |
| quibble | i may have tried something with that. | 23:53 |
| binBlob | histo: no windows 7 can do this you can just choose a vhd straight up from the bios ... | 23:53 |
| SolarisB1y | have you reboot yet - ? | 23:53 |
| quibble | yeah a bunch of times | 23:53 |
| SolarisB1y | quibble: the idea of the recovery mode is fix the issue and reboot into a working system - so that never worked huh? | 23:54 |
| eset | not spyke english | 23:54 |
| eset | help | 23:54 |
| quibble | It didn't... | 23:54 |
| SolarisB1y | hrm | 23:54 |
| ObrienDave | !es | eset | 23:54 |
| ubottu | eset: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y presione intro. | 23:54 |
| SolarisB1y | quibble: maybe post your X logs for others to take a peek at then | 23:54 |
| binBlob | histo: your whole os is pretty much a single file, with all settings partitions and all the other stuff | 23:55 |
| eset | trank you | 23:55 |
| SolarisB1y | /var/log/Xorg.*.log quibble | 23:55 |
| quibble | SolarisB1y: Well, maybe it did. But the black screen is preventing me from knowing if it did. Is there a way to recover the graphical thing to work? Also, how do I post x logs? nvm lol ty | 23:55 |
| histo | binBlob: So then do that? I'm not sure what you are asking. | 23:55 |
| nikola_ | thanks guys | 23:55 |
| nikola_ | see ya | 23:55 |
| nikola_ | good night! | 23:55 |
| quibble | ? | 23:55 |
| binBlob | histo: I am asking about the same stuff for linux | 23:55 |
| quibble | SolarisB1y: I typed this into chat : "/var/log/Xorg.*.log quibble" | 23:56 |
| SolarisB1y | uhhh | 23:56 |

| Guest61597 | Hello | 23:56 |
| histo | binBlob: You'd have to see if grub supports booting from an image file. | 23:56 |
| ObrienDave | Senjai, sorry, I can't find the setting. I have my touchpad disabled and I use a USB mouse | 23:56 |
| histo | binBlob: more specifically grub2... How does any of this relate to ubuntu by the way? | 23:57 |
| SolarisB1y | you can try to install pastebinit - and do cat /var/log/Xorg.*.log | pastebinit quibble | 23:57 |
| SolarisB1y | i meant to post those logs to pastebin - thats the only way i know without gui | 23:57 |
| quibble | SolarisB1y: is quibble my username? on the computer it's "john" | 23:57 |
| SolarisB1y | quibble: is your username | 23:57 |
| quibble | ok | 23:57 |
| binBlob | histo: well what does ubuntu use to boot ? | 23:57 |
| SolarisB1y | atleast i hope so - that would be a nasty trick to play on an old person like me if not! | 23:58 |
| SolarisB1y | ;> | 23:58 |
| Guest61597 | i need to to atack the website www.saopaulo.sp.gov.br who want help me? | 23:58 |
| Senjai | ObrienDave: Thats fine, thanks anyway. | 23:58 |
| quibble | SolarisB1y: Well i mean my login on the computer- | 23:58 |
| SolarisB1y | binBlob: it uses grub to boot by default which loads flat files or isos | 23:58 |
| puff | I'm on 12.4 LTS. I just plugged in a new thermaltake blacx external drive enclosure with a WD black 2TB drive in it. Gparted saw the drive fine and I partitioned it as an NTFS drive. But ubuntu isn't automounting it. How do I get ubuntu to automount it? | 23:58 |
| SolarisB1y | quibble: those can be different - my login on my box isn't SolarisBoy | 23:58 |
| quibble | cat /var/log/Xorg.*.log | pastebinit quibble | 23:58 |
| quibble | lol | 23:58 |
| SolarisB1y | B1y even | 23:58 |
| quibble | idk | 23:58 |
| === cubix``693 is now known as cubix` | ||
| SolarisB1y | quibble: leave the quibble off the end and install pastebinit first ofcourse | 23:59 |
| puff | Oh, it's plugged in via esata... maybe that's why it's not automounting. But in that case, how do I mount an esata? | 23:59 |
| SolarisB1y | puff: same as any other - in fstab | 23:59 |
| quibble | cat /var/log/Xorg.*.log | pastebinit | 23:59 |
| quibble | apt-get install pastebinit | 23:59 |
| quibble | xD | 23:59 |
| SolarisB1y | very nice.... | 23:59 |
